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. T-This is...
Copy !req
7. The Egg of the King!
Copy !req
8. I see!
Copy !req
9. So that's the ploy...
Copy !req
10. It's your fault...
Copy !req
11. You put Griffith in danger
and almost got him killed...
Copy !req
12. It's all your fault!
Copy !req
13. Feel no shame about shape.
Copy !req
14. Weather changes their phrase.
Copy !req
15. Even mother will show you another way.
Copy !req
16. So put your glasses on.
Copy !req
17. Nothing will be wrong.
Copy !req
18. There's no blame. There's no fame.
Copy !req
19. It's up to you.
Copy !req
20. The first words should be found.
Copy !req
21. Whatever holds you back.
Copy !req
22. I...
Copy !req
23. can...
Copy !req
24. I can get it off.
Copy !req
25. Tell me what...
Copy !req
26. Tell me what...
Copy !req
27. Tell me what you want.
Copy !req
28. I don't know why...
Copy !req
29. Don't know why...
Copy !req
30. Don't know why you're afraid.
Copy !req
31. Tell me what...
Copy !req
32. Tell me what...
Copy !req
33. Tell me what you'd say.
Copy !req
34. I don't know why...
Copy !req
35. Don't know why...
Copy !req
36. Too late...
Copy !req
37. It's too late.
Copy !req
38. The Sword's Owner
Copy !req
39. Have you heard about
the Band of the Hawk?
Copy !req
40. I have...
Copy !req
41. They suffered serious
losses during a recent battle.
Copy !req
42. I can't say for certain, but...
Copy !req
43. soldiers claim they met some
huge demon in Tudor Castle.
Copy !req
44. A huge demon?
Copy !req
45. I declare it to be a falsehood...
Copy !req
46. designed to draw attention
away from their failure.
Copy !req
47. It's no better than a child's trick!
Copy !req
48. However, Griffith ultimately succeeded
in securing the castle's surrender.
Copy !req
49. Even if they did suffer serious losses,
we may not accuse them of failure.
Copy !req
50. Besides, it is rumored that
Griffith will be raised to the peerage.
Copy !req
51. Aye, I've heard that as well.
Copy !req
52. Really, it is true?
Copy !req
53. His reputation with the king keeps
rising due to his recent achievements.
Copy !req
54. This is very irritating!
Copy !req
55. Why should the king give
that title to a mercenary?
Copy !req
56. He is...
Copy !req
57. The commander of their raiders...
Copy !req
58. You've had
a terrible experience in battle.
Copy !req
59. I heard that you encountered
a demon on the battlefield.
Copy !req
60. I wonder if it was
the demon that injured you?
Copy !req
61. Perhaps you saw a dog in the dark
and thought it was a monster.
Copy !req
62. That is likely!
Copy !req
63. Y-You...
Copy !req
64. Sorry, I'm unsteady on
my feet because of my wounds.
Copy !req
65. D-Damn you!
Copy !req
66. My blade hungers for you...
Copy !req
67. Bastard...
Copy !req
68. Guts!
Copy !req
69. What's going on?
Copy !req
70. You're all out here.
Copy !req
71. Are you well enough to walk?
Copy !req
72. Yeah...
Copy !req
73. It's all your fault!
Copy !req
74. Just forget it.
Copy !req
75. No one blames you.
Copy !req
76. Casca just said that because
she was frantic back there.
Copy !req
77. And what are you up to?
Copy !req
78. We want to visit Griffith.
Copy !req
79. But...
Copy !req
80. There are visitors here already.
Copy !req
81. Ministers and bishops,
big shots in the royal court...
Copy !req
82. The world is as kind
as it is cruel, so to speak.
Copy !req
83. Some of the senior statesmen
despise Griffith and regard him...
Copy !req
84. as an upstart
mercenary commoner.
Copy !req
85. Meanwhile, others try to gain his
favor to secure their future in the court.
Copy !req
86. I get it...
Copy !req
87. Maybe we've just been
taking it for granted...
Copy !req
88. but Griffith
has been invincible so far.
Copy !req
89. Basically, he is the leader of
the strongest unit in Midland's army.
Copy !req
90. Well, then...
Copy !req
91. Where to?
Copy !req
92. Hey!
Copy !req
93. Wait!
Copy !req
94. You weren't listening, were you?
Copy !req
95. I was.
Copy !req
96. So what?
Copy !req
97. So what?
Copy !req
98. Don't give me that!
Copy !req
99. I'm telling you to wait here until
Griffith finishes receiving his guests.
Copy !req
100. That doesn't matter at all.
Copy !req
101. I just want to visit an injured friend.
Copy !req
102. Guts!
Copy !req
103. I'm going!
Copy !req
104. You are not allowed in!
Copy !req
105. Please wait until the meeting is over.
Copy !req
106. You...
Copy !req
107. Sorry.
Copy !req
108. Big idiot...
Copy !req
109. Rickert, will you come with me?
Copy !req
110. T-That's all right...
Copy !req
111. Okay...
Copy !req
112. Hey, Griffith...
Copy !req
113. I'm sick of this.
Copy !req
114. Stop trying to...
Copy !req
115. What's the meaning of this?
Copy !req
116. Why?
Copy !req
117. Why are you always like this?
Copy !req
118. Why does Griffith value you so much?
Copy !req
119. Hey, Guts!
Copy !req
120. That spoiled everything.
Copy !req
121. I'll come back later!
Copy !req
122. I think...
Copy !req
123. I understand Guts's
feelings somewhat.
Copy !req
124. After all, Griffith has been
unapproachable lately...
Copy !req
125. He's been like a stranger...
Copy !req
126. You...
Copy !req
127. should have been killed
by Griffith back there!
Copy !req
128. You don't care at all about your men.
Copy !req
129. You're just a mad dog!
Copy !req
130. Why...
Copy !req
131. Why are you always like this?
Copy !req
132. It's all your fault!
Copy !req
133. It's all your fault!
Copy !req
134. Shit!
Copy !req
135. What the hell does she mean?
Copy !req
136. My, you're on edge.
Copy !req
137. Griffith.
Copy !req
138. You seem to be able
to wield your sword...
Copy !req
139. despite the fact you were beaten
much more soundly than I was.
Copy !req
140. You are quite a tough one.
Copy !req
141. I apologize about yesterday.
Copy !req
142. I heard everyone came to visit me.
Copy !req
143. Taking advantage of my injury...
Copy !req
144. those ministers condescendingly
visit me every single day.
Copy !req
145. To be honest, they are truly annoying.
Copy !req
146. I'm without any choice, however.
Copy !req
147. Nosferatu Zodd...
Copy !req
148. To think that such an enormous
monster really exists...
Copy !req
149. Part of me feels as if that encounter
was some kind of nightmare.
Copy !req
150. But on the other hand...
Copy !req
151. it's evident such a giant exists...
Copy !req
152. even though
it's beyond human knowledge.
Copy !req
153. I would say...
Copy !req
154. that it might be something like a god.
Copy !req
155. It was more like a demon, wasn't it?
Copy !req
156. Who knows?
Copy !req
157. It's all the same.
Copy !req
158. By the way, how was I saved?
Copy !req
159. I passed out in the middle of the fight.
Copy !req
160. It was because of
that thing around your neck.
Copy !req
161. If you and this man truly regard each
other as friends, be mindful of this...
Copy !req
162. When this man's ambition crumbles...
Copy !req
163. you will be destined
to face your death!
Copy !req
164. A death you can never escape!
Copy !req
165. Zodd certainly recognized that thing...
Copy !req
166. This seems to protect me from evil.
Copy !req
167. I've got to thank that old
fortune-teller woman.
Copy !req
168. I think...
Copy !req
169. I owe you again.
Copy !req
170. Tell me why.
Copy !req
171. Three years ago...
Copy !req
172. you told me that you didn't
want to lose an outstanding soldier.
Copy !req
173. I am just a warrior serving you.
Copy !req
174. But you were about
to lose your life for me...
Copy !req
175. a mere soldier.
Copy !req
176. It's not the kind of thing that
happens to a levelheaded guy like you.
Copy !req
177. Why?
Copy !req
178. Oh dear, I thought we
finished up that talk three years ago.
Copy !req
179. There's no reason...
Copy !req
180. in particular.
Copy !req
181. Do you want a reason?
Copy !req
182. Do you really need a reason...
Copy !req
183. each time I decide to lay
my life on the line for you?
Copy !req
184. No, I just...
Copy !req
185. Oh, Sir White Hawk.
Copy !req
186. You seem to have gotten better.
Copy !req
187. Your Majesty!
Copy !req
188. Hey, Guts!
Copy !req
189. How dare you be discourteous
in His Majesty's presence!
Copy !req
190. Never mind that. Raise your heads.
Copy !req
191. I'm just getting some air.
Copy !req
192. But, Your Majesty...
Copy !req
193. Everybody in the castle
has grown excited because...
Copy !req
194. of all the war councils.
Copy !req
195. Alas, I do not have time
to regain my composure.
Copy !req
196. Let me introduce you...
Copy !req
197. This is my
younger brother, Count Julius.
Copy !req
198. He's the general of the White Dragons
and next in line to the throne.
Copy !req
199. I am Griffith.
Pleased to make your acquaintance.
Copy !req
200. My lord Griffith...
Copy !req
201. I am always proud when you capably
lead the Band of the Hawk to victory.
Copy !req
202. That is very kind.
Copy !req
203. Forgetting my old age,
your dauntless courage in battle...
Copy !req
204. even makes me burn for a fight!
Copy !req
205. It reminds me of
those days of my youth...
Copy !req
206. when I worked alongside
my subjects in the war effort.
Copy !req
207. Majesty, I must object to this
addressing of a mere unit commander.
Copy !req
208. I do not mind talking with him.
Copy !req
209. The truth be told...
Copy !req
210. some senior statesmen in the royal
court are displeased by your presence.
Copy !req
211. Alarmed by your influence...
Copy !req
212. they are concerned
that your common birth...
Copy !req
213. might affect the prestige
of the Midland army.
Copy !req
214. However, neither prestige
nor status brings us triumph...
Copy !req
215. much less welfare for my people.
Copy !req
216. We live in a turbulent age.
Copy !req
217. Hence, I am greatly depending upon
exceptional people like yourself...
Copy !req
218. rather than aristocratic generals
who are tied up in old traditions...
Copy !req
219. for I am committed to building
a strong foundation for my land.
Copy !req
220. Once again, I am very much
obliged to Your Majesty.
Copy !req
221. Who is that lady over there?
Copy !req
222. Oh...
Copy !req
223. She is my daughter, Charlotte.
Copy !req
224. She is very shy.
Copy !req
225. According to her, she is
frightened of haughty warriors...
Copy !req
226. so she rarely
comes out of the palace.
Copy !req
227. Charlotte, come over here.
Copy !req
228. She is a very private person.
Copy !req
229. That is because she is my
only daughter, so I spoil her.
Copy !req
230. Forgive her, Lord Griffith.
Copy !req
231. Come along now, Charlotte.
Copy !req
232. Pardon me.
Copy !req
233. Be careful, my lady.
Copy !req
234. You bastard!
Copy !req
235. Such discourtesy,
touching the princess's body!
Copy !req
236. Hey, old man!
Copy !req
237. Pardon my improper manner...
Copy !req
238. Your Excellency Julius.
Copy !req
239. What's keeping you?
Copy !req
240. Oh, it's nothing, Father.
Copy !req
241. We shall go, my lady.
Copy !req
242. Do you really need a reason...
Copy !req
243. each time I decide to lay
my life on the line for you?
Copy !req
244. He said, "For you"...
Copy !req
245. I don't know if this is the answer
I've been looking for all my life.
Copy !req
246. But for now...
Copy !req
247. I will fight with my sword for him!
Copy !req
248. All right, everyone!
Copy !req
249. Do you understand how
important this stronghold is?
Copy !req
250. No, sir!
Copy !req
251. Idiots!
Copy !req
252. You should know your history!
Copy !req
253. Listen, due to our capture of Doldrey,
for the first time we were able...
Copy !req
254. to successfully split the enemy lines.
Copy !req
255. Afterwards, this stronghold
was built as our army's...
Copy !req
256. staging point
for attacks against Midland.
Copy !req
257. Behold this road!
Copy !req
258. This road once functioned as the
most important pass for military troops...
Copy !req
259. between Doldrey and
the kingdom's territory.
Copy !req
260. However, since our military
forces seized this bridge...
Copy !req
261. the tide of the war turned.
Copy !req
262. They were forced...
Copy !req
263. to expose the heart of Midland
directly before our military forces.
Copy !req
264. According to the secret tactics...
Copy !req
265. handed down
the Coborlwitz family for 300 years...
Copy !req
266. capture a road
and you will capture victory.
Copy !req
267. To capture victory,
we should strengthen our defenses...
Copy !req
268. My defense is already planned!
Copy !req
269. Look...
Copy !req
270. If the enemy attacks us,
they have to march over this bridge.
Copy !req
271. Therefore, the best soldiers from
the garrison will amass on the bridge.
Copy !req
272. It's a narrow stone bridge...
Copy !req
273. so only a mounted soldier
or two can charge at a time.
Copy !req
274. Moreover,
Tudor's best crossbowmen...
Copy !req
275. will be standing by
above the exterior gate.
Copy !req
276. Our crossbowmen will definitely
cut down the enemy leaders...
Copy !req
277. as they march one by one.
Copy !req
278. It's perfect!
Copy !req
279. We'll deliver a severe
blow to the enemy...
Copy !req
280. and thanks to my fantastic scheme,
we'll escape any damage!
Copy !req
281. You can trust me on this!
Copy !req
282. But what if the enemy doesn't use
this bridge and attacks our flanks?
Copy !req
283. You need not worry.
Copy !req
284. There is no bridge or ford along
the river within eight miles of here.
Copy !req
285. And the river is so wide and deep that
even the best horse could not cross.
Copy !req
286. B-But what if the enemy
makes a raft, and...
Copy !req
287. As you can see, we are in a barren
land of rocks and vineyards.
Copy !req
288. It is impossible to make rafts
because there aren't enough trees.
Copy !req
289. Even if the enemy made what
they could with the nearby trees...
Copy !req
290. they wouldn't be able to send
enough of their troops over at once.
Copy !req
291. Or will they make rafts
out of the grapevines?
Copy !req
292. Why do we have to sortie
the minute Griffith gets better?
Copy !req
293. They depend on us in battle.
Copy !req
294. But didn't they say...
Copy !req
295. even the heavily equipped Golem
Knights failed to capture that castle?
Copy !req
296. I heard they suffered severely.
Copy !req
297. Reportedly, two thirds of the knights
were defeated on the bridge.
Copy !req
298. What, are you serious?
Copy !req
299. It's our turn.
Copy !req
300. We'll dispose of them.
Copy !req
301. Looking back, the morning comes.
Copy !req
302. Don't find your face in your glass.
Copy !req
303. Take the moonlight by the tail.
Copy !req
304. It's a rainy sight. You're shading.
Copy !req
305. What is that?
Copy !req
306. It's just the same.
Copy !req
307. What is trying your crown?
Copy !req
308. I'm spending my glass, walking back.
Copy !req
309. So wear my glass. You're fading.
Copy !req
310. I'm waiting so long.
Copy !req
311. I'm waiting so long.
Copy !req
312. I'm waiting so long.
Copy !req
313. I'm waiting so long.
Copy !req
314. I'm waiting so long.
Copy !req
315. I'm waiting...
Copy !req
316. Next Episode
Copy !req
317. Every man makes
sacrifices for his ambitions.
Copy !req
318. Especially when
he possesses a young heart...
Copy !req
319. he is unable to suppress
the consuming hunger.
Copy !req
320. Achieving glory for oneself,
and crushing the dreams of another...
Copy !req
321. Is this an unavoidable result of causality?
Copy !req
322. Conspiracy
Copy !req
