[Donny and Edlin grunting]
[grunting continues]
- [fierce groan]
- [Edlin grunts]
[blabbering]
[whimpers]
Donny!
Don't let go of your sword
in the middle of battle!
You got this, Edlin! Finish him!
You heard the man, Donny!
- [panting]
- Huh?
Hey! Where are you going?
[Donny] Away from a losing battle!
[Edlin] Get back here!
[exasperated sigh]
- [panting]
- [Edlin] Stop running away!
A Holy Knight wouldn't do
something like that!
[Donny breathes softly]
Donny-o!
[fierce grunt]
[swishing]
[pained groan]
[exasperated sigh]
[birds chirping]
[plops]
[sighs]
Maybe I'm not cut out for this life.
Well, yeah, you're spineless
and always run
- when things get tough.
- Hm?
Edlin.
Take it easy on me, man. Come on.
This is only the beginning for us, right?
[Edlin] Let's become
Holy Knights together.
[exhales]
[sighs]
[theme music]
[suspenseful music]
[dragon snarling]
[wings flap]
- [Donny grunts]
- I have to stop this!
[roaring]
A REAL HOLY KNIGH
This is bad.
Before too long,
the underground's gonna cave in on us.
Hey, kid.
How's the little dragon holding up?
It still isn't strong enough to swallow,
so it's absorbing
the medicine in a mist form.
I only hope this will help it get better.
What you thinking, Fox?
You've been staring me down
like that for a while now.
How pathetic you are,
Great Holy Knight Howzer.
And you call yourself Donny's master?
The hell? A talking fox?
I know a pig is a real chatterbox,
but now foxes can speak too?
Is it that hard for you to forgive?
To forgive Edlin who betrayed you
And Donny who betrayed your expectations?
Or is it that you can't forgive yourself
for not training your pupils properly?
[irritated breath]
How lame.
Agh! What'd you say?
[Sin] The fragment of the Coffin
of Eternal Darkness you're holding
Seems you mistakenly
got it through your head
that Donny stole it from somewhere.
You even know about the fragment, huh?
[Sin] Donny protected it
[surprised gasp]
from the grips of a Chaos Knight
who attempted to activate the Coffin.
You mean a true Knight of Chaos?
He protected it from
a Holy Knight in Arthur's service?
[Sin] That's right.
Donny risked his life,
along with his friends,
to secure the fragment
in a nearly devastated city.
He did that with a group
of traveling performers?
They're not traveling performers,
you moron.
[groans]
[Sin] The kid with the helmet
is someone I found
on secret orders from the King of Liones.
[shocked gasp]
From His Majesty himself?
No, there's no way.
It can't be!
Yeah.
He's one of the Four Knights
of the Apocalypse.
[Sin] Straight out of the prophecy
Percival.
[Percival grunts]
That said, he's still a fledgling
who's only recently awakened to his magic.
[all gasp]
[all yelp]
Percival! Donny!
[all groaning painfully]
[light string music]
[Howzer] Hey, you with the hat!
What's your name?
Mm. Uh, I'm Nasiens.
[Howzer] Do me a favor, Nasiens.
Use your magic
to get this alcohol out of my system.
[gasps]
[sighs]
Good grief
Anne! Take Donny and his friend
and get away from here!
Idiot! Then what are you gonna do?
Either way, Sylvan's a one-person pony!
[low groan]
[fierce shout]
[grunts]
[fierce grunting]
[both grunting rhythmically]
[mini Percivals grunting]
It's not working at all!
[dragon roars lightly]
[smashes]
[suspenseful music]
[hissing]
[grunts deeply]
[Percival] Whoa!
Was that an illusion of me?
[Donny] All right! Good thinking, Edlin!
[Edlin] Oh, thanks.
[Sylvan neighing]
[grunts]
[Sylvan yelps]
Sylvan, run a little faster!
[Sylvan whimpering]
Dragons are the coolest!
I've only heard about them
in fairy tales my grandpa told me,
but those stories are nothing
compared to them in real life!
My attacks don't faze her
and she's not even going all out!
Yeah, yeah, they're freaking amazing!
So, can you win this?
- No way.
- Huh?
Isn't there something you can do?
[breathes sharply]
[all yelp]
- [all grunt]
- [loud thud]
[all groaning]
- [dragon roars]
- [all gasp]
[snarling]
Aah! She's looking at us!
What do we do?
[grunts]
Get on, get on!
As if that's an option anymore!
[angry grunt]
[roars]
[grunts]
Whatever, just run!
[all panting]
[wind swooshing]
Wait. What's this whirlwind
- all of a sudden?
- Huh?
[gasps]
[wind howling]
[Donny] Uncle?
[Edlin] Master Howzer!
[wind whistling]
[wind howling]
I gonna make you return that weapon.
[Anne] What's a drunken Great Holy Knight
doing here?
You can't be here
while you're so weak, mister.
It's too risky!
Master! You have to stay away!
Nah, he's gonna be fine, trust me.
[all gasp]
[suspenseful music]
[action thrilling music]
[heavy stomping]
[all gasp]
Hmm
[blasting]
[Howzer] Rising
RISING TORNADO
Tornado!
[swooshing]
[both yelp]
[dragon grunts]
[swooshing]
[snarls]
Whirl
WHIRL SHOCK!!!
Shock!
[swooshing]
[loud thumping]
[both exclaim]
[shocked gasp]
Don't be so surprised, it's nothing new.
[Donny] He's not even using
his full power!
[heavy stomp]
[smashes]
[growling]
[action thrilling music]
[roars]
[growling]
[smashes]
[clinks]
[swishing]
[swooshing]
Super Cyclone!
[screeching]
[swooshing]
SUPER CYCLONE
Master Howzer is so strong.
I didn't have any idea.
Obviously.
Did you really think he'd use
his full strength against us kids?
[Donny] That man fought
against the demon race
in the Holy War 16 years ago and survived.
[loud bang]
He's a real Holy Knight!
[Donny] That was amazing!
You did it, Uncle!
Donny, Edlin, you aren't hurt, are you?
Nah! Not a scratch on us!
You see that, Percival?
What an incredible display of power.
Hey, you hear me?
[excited gasp]
Wow!
[gasps]
What's wrong?
Huh?
Holy Knights are totally awesome!
- Show me how
- [mini Percivals chittering]
- [shocked gasp]
- I wanna become a Holy Knight too!
You gotta teach me how I can become one!
Please! I'm begging you!
Hey! Calm down, kid.
Rising Tornado!
Whirl Shock!
[swooshing]
Super Cyclone!
Hmm
Please, drunk-but-actually-strong
Great Holy Knight of Liones
and Donny's uncle and teacher!
You don't have to say all that,
just call me Howzer!
Tell me, Mr. Howzer,
can I become as strong as you one day?
You wanna become strong like me?
Yeah.
I have to become as strong as possible.
[both sigh]
I see.
But you know,
there are countless folks in the world
who are way stronger than I am.
- [distant squawking]
- Huh?
[all gasp]
[baby dragon squawking]
Hey, guys! Everyone all right?
[Percival] It looks like
the baby dragon's all better now.
Yeah, no need for you to worry.
- You did this?
- Mm.
[low groan]
[groaning]
[squawking]
Oh, no, don't tell me
you slayed his mother.
She's all right.
[wings flapping]
[purrs softly]
[dragon grunts deeply]
[screeches]
Sorry about earlier.
Isn't there a risk that she'll attack
humans and towns again?
About that
The only reason
that ancient dragon acted so violently
is because her kid
was taken away from her.
[Howzer] Unless they give her a reason,
she won't be attacking humans anymore.
You don't have to worry.
I'll handle the rest from here on out.
[delighted gasp]
[chuckles]
[clinks]
Edlin, where do you think you're going?
[scoffs]
[Edlin] The truth is, I'm a fugitive.
And the damage cost
by my actions here is irreparable.
What's your plan?
You're just gonna forget
all about the dragon you hurt
and the poor town you annihilated?
Don't tell me you're running away
after that.
[irritated groan]
[Edlin] If you feel so strongly,
then capture me and throw me in jail.
- In the end, I'm just
- [approaching footsteps]
Huh?
[Howzer grunts]
[pained groan]
[all gasp]
[body thuds]
[Edlin coughing]
[breathes sharply]
What What did you do that for?
What do you possibly know
about how I feel right now?
You've probably been
comparing yourself to Donny.
And you thought that your strength
wasn't enough to make you a Holy Knight.
So you acted out like a selfish fool.
[scoffs]
[gasps]
But that said,
I'm exactly as pathetic as you.
Huh?
[pensive music]
[fierce scream]
[swords clinking]
[Edlin yelps]
[pained groan]
Come on, Edlin.
Now don't tell me that's all you've got.
Not even close!
[angry grunt]
[sighs]
So, what are you gonna do now?
The illusion you created
sure looks identical to the original,
but you can't make it move, can you?
[irritated breath]
[Howzer grunts]
[Edlin screams]
- [pained groan]
- [sword clatters]
That little trick isn't suited
for actual combat.
So you can't rely on your magic alone!
Work on your sword skills as well!
[groans lightly]
[Edlin] I can't do this.
I'm hopeless.
[Howzer] Now you're starting
to sound like Donny.
Don't you betray my expectations too.
Really?
You expect better from someone
who can't land a single strike
on his master?
[sobs]
Edlin!
[water rippling softly]
[soft music]
[sighs]
Back in those days, I wasn't capable
of being considerate of your feelings.
[Howzer] I failed as a master.
[gasps]
Having the ability to hurt others
is not what you need
to become a true Holy Knight.
You know, I saw you
The way you use your magic
to help Donny and the other kids
when they needed you most.
On your feet.
[soft gasp]
Together, you and I
will start our training from scratch.
[crying]
[soft groan]
[whimpers]
[sobbing]
We'll atone together for our sins.
I'm sorry I punched you.
Yup, that's my uncle.
Pretty cool, huh?
Hmph. Sort of.
- On your feet.
- [sudden gasp]
Hey! Don't reenact it!
And, Donny, same to you.
Huh?
I wanna apologize for when I punched you.
I wasn't able to believe your story,
so I'm sorry.
Hey, I wouldn't worry about that at all.
I mean, I did run away
from my training, you know?
Even so, I'm surprised
you did something so reckless
when you said you were afraid.
What made you change your mind then?
Before Mom passed away,
she said something.
[Donny's mother]
Live the life I couldn't live for me.
She said that?
[gasps]
Hearing those words from her,
I felt like there's no way
I could become a Holy Knight
who could put his life
on the line for people.
[sighs]
I honestly had no idea.
But now, things are much different.
[Donny] I'll try to become a Holy Knight
who lives for his friends.
[satisfied breath]
[laughs]
[sudden groan]
And you, Edlin
[gasps]
I can't train alongside of you.
But just know, I don't plan on running
from my dream anymore.
Are you serious?
I vow to become
a stronger version of myself,
one you can be proud of.
And then, we can both follow our goals
and become Holy Knights for real.
Yeah!
Make it happen
before this old drunk retires.
Oh, yeah, I'll be taking that back.
Hey, what's the big idea
Before I give it back,
let me warn you again.
Huh?
[Howzer] As long as you have this,
Arthur's followers
will keep on pursuing you.
So be ready to protect it with your life.
[wheezes in fear]
What's that mean?
It means that this relic
possesses so much power
that it can change the tide of war
against them completely.
Huh?
[Howzer] Donny!
[Donny] Why did you have to say that?
Now I'm too scared to hold it!
[Howzer] You spineless little coward!
[laughter]
[sighs]
In that case, I can hold onto it.
[all gasp surprisingly]
[metallic pounding in distance]
[clangs]
Ah
It seems like you're pretty handy.
My folks run a blacksmith shop.
When I was younger,
I'd lend a hand around the place
whenever Dad needed me.
All I'm doing is slapping on
a pre-made blade to the hilt.
It should be relatively functional though.
You're Percival, is that right?
Hmm!
[Howzer] It won't do for a guy
who wants to become a Holy Knight
to not even have a sword of his own.
Especially if he's one of the Four Knights
from the prophecy.
[baffled gasp]
[Howzer] Here, take it.
Starting from this day forward,
that blade belongs to you.
[chimes]
Huh? Amazing!
This sword's mine!
[all chuckling]
[Taizoo] The town got wrecked
pretty badly, huh?
[Howzer] Totally.
So, what now?
Well, first, I'm gonna help
get this place back to its old self.
Guess I'll gather some townsfolk
from nearby to lend a hand.
Once that's taken care of,
Edlin and I will go make things right
with the residents.
Hmm
Oh. And, Sin
[Sin] Hm?
Percival is quite the discovery,
did you report to His Majesty yet?
No, not yet.
There were a few things
I needed to make sure of.
But I suppose you have a point.
So I guess I'll tell him anyway.
- [laughter]
- [Nasiens] That's fine.
[Anne] I know, right?
[all laughing]
- By the way, Edlin.
- Hm?
What's with all that destiny talk earlier?
Oh, that was You know, a mistake
[chimes]
[creaking]
[swooshes]
- You haven't changed one bit, huh?
- You either.
- Hey, Donny.
- Mm-hm?
Have you seen Sin around?
Huh? Maybe he's taking a leak?
[gasps]
[swooshing]
Huh?
[exhilarating music]
[swooshing]
[arrow swooshing]
[footsteps thudding]
[retainer] Your Majesty, that's it
for today's council and official duties.
[Meliodas] You guys must be tired too.
Get some rest, okay?
[Meliodas giggles]
I guess I'll spend the day
working on my new menu.
I know.
Once my new dish is ready,
I'll let you have a taste too.
On the house!
- [scared gasp]
- Uh Well I
[Meliodas] No, no. I insist.
[soft grunt]
[both gasp]
[chiming]
[tinkling]
[retainer] Your Majesty, is this
[Meliodas] Yeah.
So, he found the knight from the prophecy.
Well, well, what do you know?
I wonder what they're like.
[exhilarating music continues]
[closing theme music]
