Episode 2
1 SWORD GAI "Few people understand the wide gap between the image of a job and the actual job itself.
" "Because of this, an alarming number of new" Hey, Sayaka, want to eat lunch outside? The weather's nice today, so it'll feel great.
Oh, sure.
Sayaka, did you hear a new karaoke place opened in front of the station? And get this, it's in 3D! Let's check it out on our way home! I'm kind of busy today.
What, again? You're always busy.
Really, you never want to hang out.
Sorry.
Hey, what's going on with Ishii from the soccer team? Nothing, why? -What? He asked you out, right? -Don't tell me you turned him down! I didn't, but I don't have time to spend with him.
What do you mean? Do you have another guy you like or something? No, that's not it.
Then what's the problem? Ishii's the captain of the soccer team! And he's cute and gets great grades! Y-Yeah.
So, he's kind of too good for me.
Jeez, what are you doing? I can't believe it! I think I'm going crazy! This isn't funny! You're really weird, Sayaka.
S-Sorry.
Welcome home, miss.
Tatsumi.
The master asked me to run an errand.
I see.
That must be hard.
My father can be rough on people.
Gai! Wait, Gai! You saved me back there, Gai.
I don't really know how to handle Tatsumi.
I didn't save you.
Hey, did you know that the karaoke place in front of the station is in 3D? Let's go check it out! I've got work to do.
Again? You've always got work, and you never want to go anywhere.
Even Father said you don't know how to have fun.
And if you're too serious, you can't make a good sword.
Did that upset you? I was joking! Enough.
Get lost.
What? -How rude.
-Give it back! Nope! Not unless you come hang out with me! Ow! What are you doing? How dare you touch her! No, Tatsumi! It's my fault! I interrupted him during his work! No, it's Gai's fault for letting you interfere.
Well, Gai? You're right, Tatsumi.
I'm sorry.
Are those the eyes of someone who's apologizing? Is there a problem? What's going on here? Father! Master, Gai was-- I-It's nothing.
We were just playing around.
The Shiryu has begun to cry once more.
Tomorrow we perform the calming ritual.
Sayaka, purify yourself for the role of priestess.
Y-Yes sir.
Gai, come with me.
Yes sir.
Why do you not pray? This is your mother's grave, and the place where you were born.
I buried your mother here because it has a clear view of the estate.
So she could always watch over you.
It's been over a decade since I adopted you.
You've finished your required education, and I want to hear about your future plans.
Let me stay with you forever.
I have no future except as a swordsmith.
I thought you'd say that.
Work even harder.
Your mother will be pleased.
My mother will not be pleased.
What do you mean? Nothing.
Gai? Shiryu, you are my only mother.
Now, moving on to item number 23.
The "Sukhothai Buddha Statue.
" Bidding opens at 40,000 dollars.
-50,000 dollars! -60,000! This is good! Enough playing around, Miki.
You're not there to eat.
Don't be so prim and proper.
I haven't had a meal like this in a while.
Oh, I'll take this wine too.
It's great! I've never had this before.
It's wonderful.
This fragrance, it's a Richebourg.
It's said to smell like a bouquet of flowers.
Though personally, I prefer Romanée-Saint-Vivant.
You're not participating in the auction? I think it's quite the item, that statue.
Yes, I'm here for something else.
Iâm just seeing how things are today.
-100,000 dollars! -102,000! The same as me.
Then may we both win our bids.
Cheers.
Very well, sir.
The "Sukhothai Buddha Statue" goes to you for 130,000 dollars.
What? Me? Congratulations.
An excellent purchase.
What are you doing? This is coming out of your pocket money.
N-No! That concludes today's auction.
The items for the next auction are in another room.
Please take a look at them at your convenience.
Well, is it real? It's making me sick.
It's laughing.
The Azoth Sword, yes? Is this what you're after? You too, then? Yes.
If it's real, I'd certainly like to get my hands on it.
After all, this sword was owned by the legendary alchemist Paracelsus.
You believe the story of Paracelsus and the devil? I don't know.
But it is interesting.
In the 16th century Paracelsus made a contract with a devil, to master the arts of alchemy.
In exchange, he was to sell his soul to the devil.
With the devil's knowledge, he was eventually able to complete the Philosopher's Stone, the root of all creation.
But he broke the contract.
That would make a devil mad.
He broke his promise to sell his soul.
It makes sense that he'd try to kill Paracelsus.
But it was Paracelsus who was victorious.
He sealed the devil in the Philosopher's Stone, which he had placed on a sword.
And that was the Azoth Sword.
Well, Mr.
Marcus? This time, it was real.
I heard the devil's laughter.
Gai was with the Shiryu? Yes.
He kept staring at it throughout the night.
I know.
You're not supposed to touch, or even look at the Shiryu! That's because it's a danger to those who do.
But if it doesn't do harm, it's no concern.
Does that mean Gai is special? When I found Gai as a newborn, next to his mother's corpse, his hands were holding the Shiryu tightly, as if it was keeping him alive.
I believe the Shiryu seeks him, too.
That's why we need Gai's blood to calm it.
You've realized too, right? Gai's eyes they don't see people, but are always looking at the sword.
You know what that means, right? He lives with death.
A life where he'll be sliced apart if he averts his eyes for an instant.
Could you do that? I-I Even I could not.
Gai may have reached a state that I long for but cannot achieve.
We will now begin the calming ritual for the Shiryu.
Sayaka, enter.
In heavenly fields the divine shall sit, bearing the life of Kanayago, I call then, to all the gods, that they may gather here.
Gai.
I can't let this happen.
Gai can't be the chosen one! No! What's going on, Father? Gai's been out of the hospital a week, but the pain hasn't let up! Gai is feeling the pain of his lost arm.
A pain that isn't real can't be cured.
I don't understand.
How did this happen? What happened during the Calming Ritual? Just an accident.
It's none of your concern.
Gai.
G-Gai? Hang in there, Gai.
I'm here for you.
Gai! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! Gai! How can he defile a grave like that? This is the woman who abandoned me! Shiryu Gai held you when he was a baby, and you are his protector.
So, become his arm and protect him! Or perhaps, was this what you wanted, Shiryu? Now, on to item number 13, the Azoth Sword.
It's said the 15th century alchemist, Paracelsus, sealed a devil in this legendary sword.
Opening bid starts at 20,000 dollars.
-30,000 dollars! -50,000 dollars! 60,000! 80,000! 500,000 dollars.
F-Five hundred thousand? What do we do, Kyoka? Don't get scared.
Our budget is infinite.
Go.
If there's no other bids, then 500,000-- Wait.
1,000,000 dollars.
Don't raise it that fast, dummy! 1,200,000! 1,300,000! -1,350,000! -1,500,000 dollars! The current bid is 1,500,000 dollars.
Anyone else? Then the winning bid is 1,500,000 dollars.
I did it, Kyoka.
I'll return to the Shoshidai immediately.
I guess I don't need to ask what you want.
I can tell from what's going on here.
You want the Azoth Sword, right? Who are you? Paying 1,500,000 dollars for that old sword.
I could ask the same question of you.
But you don't understand how dangerous the Azoth Sword is.
It's not for an amateur to have.
I know.
That's why I need it.
Sell it to me for a fair price.
If you don't want to Oh man, I saw that coming.
That's not going to work.
No matter how strong you are, a normal person Impossible! See? Told you.
I'll be going now.
This time it's not a normal person.
No! Administrator Miura? I see.
I heard the rumors.
You're Takuma Miura, formerly of the Shoshidai.
That is this one's old name.
You called me, and I answered.
My name is Zsoltgewinn! Miki, get out of there! You can't beat Zsoltgewinn alone! I won't lose in a shouting match! Thunder, roar! Fallgon! This is Subtitle translation by Adam Lensenmayer
