1. In this world...
Copy !req
2. Is the destiny of mankind controlled by some transcendental entity or law?
Copy !req
3. Is it like the hand of God hovering above?
Copy !req
4. At least it is true...
Copy !req
5. that man has no control, even over his own will.
Copy !req
6. I want you to join us, Guts!
Copy !req
7. Acting so friendly after you stabbed me...
Copy !req
8. What do you want?
Copy !req
9. To settle this with our swords...
Copy !req
10. All right...
Copy !req
11. I rather enjoy settling things by force...
Copy !req
12. Griffith!
Copy !req
13. No matter what, I will have what I want.
Copy !req
14. I've had enough of you acting so stuck up...
Copy !req
15. It makes me sick!
Copy !req
16. First Battle
Copy !req
17. Griffith!
Copy !req
18. He's something else...
Copy !req
19. I bet I could split steel with this sword...
Copy !req
20. but he easily evades each blow...
Copy !req
21. and just uses one arm
to handle his narrow blade!
Copy !req
22. He's a great fighter!
Copy !req
23. I could suspend this duel until you've
recovered completely, if you like.
Copy !req
24. Shut up!
Copy !req
25. I'll win!
Copy !req
26. I'll definitely beat him!
Copy !req
27. Faster!
Copy !req
28. Stronger!
Copy !req
29. The kid is challenging Griffith again.
He didn't learn his lesson at all!
Copy !req
30. Kill him!
Copy !req
31. Corkus, stop it!
Copy !req
32. What?
Copy !req
33. It's Griffith's orders!
Copy !req
34. You must not bother them!
Copy !req
35. I will take this opportunity to kill him.
Copy !req
36. Move!
Copy !req
37. When did you become leader, Corkus?
Copy !req
38. Griffith's orders are absolute.
Copy !req
39. I've got him!
Copy !req
40. It's settled...
Copy !req
41. I like the way you fight.
Copy !req
42. You'll go to any length
to defeat your opponent.
Copy !req
43. However, you can't wield
your sword unless I move.
Copy !req
44. What do you say?
Copy !req
45. I wouldn't mind if you'd rather we desist.
Copy !req
46. You talk too much. It's annoying.
Copy !req
47. Let me tell you something.
Copy !req
48. In a battle, your mouth...
Copy !req
49. is to be used like this!
Copy !req
50. Griffith!
Copy !req
51. I've never seen Griffith
knocked to the ground like that!
Copy !req
52. Do you like the taste of your own blood?
Copy !req
53. I bet you've never had
that fancy face beaten in!
Copy !req
54. He did it!
Copy !req
55. You struck me quite soundly...
Copy !req
56. But this is the end.
Copy !req
57. Admit defeat amenably
or have your shoulder joint dislocated.
Copy !req
58. It doesn't matter to me...
Copy !req
59. You bastard...
Copy !req
60. Way to go!
Copy !req
61. That's our Griffith!
Copy !req
62. Yeah, that's Griffith for you!
Copy !req
63. You really are the best.
Copy !req
64. You loser!
Copy !req
65. You look pathetic, have you lost your nerve?
Copy !req
66. Griffith?
Copy !req
67. Now...
Copy !req
68. you are mine.
Copy !req
69. Do you mean it?
Copy !req
70. He is a member of ours from now on!
Copy !req
71. Yeah!
Copy !req
72. It's so strange...
Copy !req
73. Griffith has never,
ever said such kind words...
Copy !req
74. to anyone!
Copy !req
75. They've been nicknamed
the Grim Reapers of the Battlefield...
Copy !req
76. since they're
seemingly invincible in battle.
Copy !req
77. We do not need to worry
ourselves about them...
Copy !req
78. since they are
a subsidiary of the Midland army.
Copy !req
79. Besides, mercenaries
are merely cannon fodder.
Copy !req
80. But what if they gain power
and earn the king's trust?
Copy !req
81. We would face the loss of
our prestige, honor, and pride.
Copy !req
82. Indeed...
Copy !req
83. This is irritating!
Copy !req
84. I was beaten...
Copy !req
85. completely!
Copy !req
86. It's almost a joke!
Copy !req
87. He...
Copy !req
88. talks openly, and smiles
like some innocent kid...
Copy !req
89. But...
Copy !req
90. he dislocated my shoulder
joint cleanly, without hesitation...
Copy !req
91. just like plucking off a doll's arm...
Copy !req
92. Damn it!
Copy !req
93. Who the hell is he?
Copy !req
94. Are you serious about killing him, Corkus?
Copy !req
95. Sheesh!
Copy !req
96. Don't chicken out at the last moment.
Copy !req
97. There are seven of us!
Copy !req
98. You said you didn't like him either, right?
Copy !req
99. Don't forget he killed Dan.
Copy !req
100. But he's so strong and skilled.
Copy !req
101. On top of that, Griffith...
Copy !req
102. Don't worry.
Copy !req
103. We'll catch him off guard.
Copy !req
104. Plus, he's injured and
can't possibly lift his sword.
Copy !req
105. We'll convince Griffith that the kid escaped...
Copy !req
106. after we dump his body in the woods.
Copy !req
107. This bunch will be no problem compared to him...
Copy !req
108. Sam, you go first!
Copy !req
109. Again?
Copy !req
110. You never go first.
Copy !req
111. You better not do it.
Copy !req
112. C-Casca.
Copy !req
113. He is still far beyond your skill, even injured.
Copy !req
114. I'll see about that.
Copy !req
115. Go back to your tent like a good boy, Corkus.
Copy !req
116. Casca, why are you trying to save him?
Copy !req
117. Oh, I see.
Copy !req
118. You lay together for two nights...
Copy !req
119. No wonder you have some feelings for him...
Copy !req
120. If you say anything like that ever again...
Copy !req
121. I'll chop your head off.
Copy !req
122. J-Just kidding...
Copy !req
123. I'm kidding.
Copy !req
124. Let's go.
Copy !req
125. It looks like I owe you two...
Copy !req
126. I should thank you at least.
Copy !req
127. You're mistaken...
Copy !req
128. I just acted on Griffith's orders.
Copy !req
129. Otherwise, I don't give a damn about you.
Copy !req
130. I hope you drop dead
in battle as soon as you can.
Copy !req
131. Our foes' base is on the hill
and manned by 2,000 soldiers.
Copy !req
132. Our job is to burn the provisions and
other supplies stored behind the hill.
Copy !req
133. Theoretically, they'll fortify the front
of the hill in case of night attacks.
Copy !req
134. So we...
Copy !req
135. will detour along the river and
attempt a surprise attack on their rear.
Copy !req
136. When we accomplish our goal,
we'll take the shortest route back...
Copy !req
137. right through the midst of their forces.
Copy !req
138. Through the enemy?
Copy !req
139. Any backup?
Copy !req
140. None.
Copy !req
141. It seems they can't afford
to send units for a night attack.
Copy !req
142. They're just a bunch of cowards.
Copy !req
143. The rear guard will be...
Copy !req
144. Guts...
Copy !req
145. I want you to do it.
Copy !req
146. You'll help your fellow soldiers escape...
Copy !req
147. holding off hundreds of cavalrymen...
Copy !req
148. on a straight road in the woods.
Copy !req
149. Can you manage?
Copy !req
150. It's an order, isn't it?
Copy !req
151. It is.
Copy !req
152. Griffith is trying to put
the kid's skill to the test.
Copy !req
153. Poor guy, I doubt he'll
make it through in one piece.
Copy !req
154. He might try to sneak away.
Copy !req
155. That's not it!
Copy !req
156. Griffith wouldn't give him such
an important job just as a test...
Copy !req
157. Griffith truly counts on him.
Copy !req
158. Now I don't even have to bother killing him.
Copy !req
159. We're marching in the river, not going along it.
Copy !req
160. Either way, the enemy won't predict...
Copy !req
161. us making a surprise attack
by traveling up such a rapid stream.
Copy !req
162. In addition, this gale...
Copy !req
163. will drown out the noise of our march.
Copy !req
164. Then we'll set the fire windward...
Copy !req
165. when we attack from behind.
Copy !req
166. Everything's been calculated, huh...
Copy !req
167. It's freezing.
Copy !req
168. Lookout duty on such a creepy night...
Copy !req
169. Unlike us, even wolves wouldn't go out tonight.
Copy !req
170. T-The enemy?
Copy !req
171. W-Why are they coming from that direction?
Copy !req
172. E-Enemy raid!
Copy !req
173. An enemy raid?
Copy !req
174. Set the fires!
Copy !req
175. They set fire to the gunpowder!
Copy !req
176. Don't stop to play with them!
Copy !req
177. Break through in a single rush!
Copy !req
178. Move double file!
Copy !req
179. Clear out!
Copy !req
180. General!
Copy !req
181. The gale is fanning
the flames towards the base!
Copy !req
182. Damn!
Copy !req
183. Take the heavy cavalry to the front!
Copy !req
184. Allowing our base to be
destroyed by mere mercenaries...
Copy !req
185. is a disgrace to us knights!
Copy !req
186. It's amazing!
Copy !req
187. I have never been part of
such an efficient raid before...
Copy !req
188. Now it's my job to take care of the rest!
Copy !req
189. Get out of here!
Copy !req
190. I-I will!
Copy !req
191. Follow me...
Copy !req
192. Come on, keep up!
Copy !req
193. Good job, Griffith.
Copy !req
194. They will probably
be stalled for at least a month...
Copy !req
195. I still have my duties to complete.
Copy !req
196. Excuse me.
Copy !req
197. Hey!
Copy !req
198. What an insolent attitude!
Copy !req
199. How much is the damage?
Copy !req
200. No big deal.
Copy !req
201. I see.
Copy !req
202. It's thanks to how well
our rear guard held out...
Copy !req
203. the enemy could hardly get close to us.
Copy !req
204. He handled a group of
heavy cavalrymen all by himself...
Copy !req
205. even though it was on
a straight road in the woods.
Copy !req
206. He really is something.
Copy !req
207. Rickert!
Copy !req
208. Where is Guts?
Copy !req
209. He sent me on ahead.
Copy !req
210. I hope he's still alive.
Copy !req
211. It's time for me to go back...
Copy !req
212. Damn it!
Copy !req
213. I screwed up...
Copy !req
214. Griffith!
Copy !req
215. Grab my hand!
Copy !req
216. Retreat!
Copy !req
217. D-Don't let them get away!
Copy !req
218. Why did you come back here?
Copy !req
219. Don't talk!
Copy !req
220. You'll bite your tongue!
Copy !req
221. This is no good!
Copy !req
222. They'll catch us because
we're double mounted!
Copy !req
223. Hang on!
Copy !req
224. We're almost to the edge of the woods!
Copy !req
225. Ready!
Copy !req
226. Disperse!
Copy !req
227. What?
Copy !req
228. Fire!
Copy !req
229. R-Retreat!
Copy !req
230. Retreat!
Copy !req
231. At any rate, it was
amazing the way Guts fought.
Copy !req
232. Just as Griffith expected,
he has what it takes.
Copy !req
233. By the way, Guts is nowhere to be found.
Copy !req
234. Despite his age...
Copy !req
235. Griffith has the qualities of a great leader...
Copy !req
236. and the others rely on him completely.
Copy !req
237. Besides that, he's got perfect judgment...
Copy !req
238. and he knows how to take decisive action...
Copy !req
239. He's more than just
the leader of a mercenary band...
Copy !req
240. Mr. Guts...
Copy !req
241. What are you doing?
Copy !req
242. Are you cooling off up here?
Copy !req
243. Thanks for your help before.
Copy !req
244. I narrowly escaped because of you.
Copy !req
245. I'm Rickert.
Copy !req
246. I really admire you.
Copy !req
247. I have never seen anyone who is...
Copy !req
248. such an amazing fighter,
except for Mr. Griffith.
Copy !req
249. I have done nothing but my duty.
Copy !req
250. I have no reason to be thanked.
Copy !req
251. The same thing goes for you.
Copy !req
252. Well, I'm not going
to argue with you about it.
Copy !req
253. Anyway, come with us.
Copy !req
254. A party isn't as lively without the hero.
Copy !req
255. A feast is being held, partly as a welcome.
Copy !req
256. I-I never asked for anything like that!
Copy !req
257. W-What are you doing?
Copy !req
258. Don't touch me!
Copy !req
259. Don't be shy.
Copy !req
260. L-Let go of me!
Copy !req
261. Hey, here he comes.
Copy !req
262. P-Put me down, you big-headed bastard!
Copy !req
263. I am Pippin.
Copy !req
264. Y-You.
Copy !req
265. Drink.
Copy !req
266. Everyone!
Copy !req
267. Let's drink in celebration
of our brash, new friend!
Copy !req
268. I give you real credit, rookie!
Copy !req
269. You're pretty impressive!
Copy !req
270. You cut off the enemy's attack all
by yourself, even when outnumbered!
Copy !req
271. As Griffith thought, you have what it takes!
Copy !req
272. Sure, you've got some issues,
but it's good to have you on board!
Copy !req
273. Let's kick back, rookie!
Copy !req
274. That bastard...
Copy !req
