1. Xion!
Copy !req
2. Were able to achieve your objective?
Copy !req
3. Yeah!
Copy !req
4. The larger the change,
the larger the consequence.
Copy !req
5. That's something you must keep in mind.
Copy !req
6. Understood. Do you mind
if I try to contact Theodor?
Copy !req
7. I wanna tell him Ulku is alive.
Copy !req
8. I want to free him from Luther.
Copy !req
9. Certainly.
Copy !req
10. Thank you.
Copy !req
11. The entered ID does not exist in the database.
Copy !req
12. The entered ID does not exist in the database.
Copy !req
13. Theo's address is nowhere to be found?
Copy !req
14. This is the ARKS control service.
Copy !req
15. All transmission nodes are currently restricted.
Copy !req
16. What's going on?
Copy !req
17. Is this another one of Luther's...?
Copy !req
18. Xion...
Copy !req
19. Emergency order from control to all ARKS.
Copy !req
20. As of now, all ARKS are to immediately
terminate their current mission...
Copy !req
21. and return to the fleet at once.
Copy !req
22. I repeat: All ARKS are to immediately
terminate their current...
Copy !req
23. "Quest 13: Code ABYSS"
Copy !req
24. "Quest 13: Code ABYSS"
What the hell is control thinking?
Copy !req
25. "Quest 13: Code ABYSS"
I was just about to wipe out a den of Falspawn!
Copy !req
26. I was just about to wipe out a den of Falspawn!
Copy !req
27. And we can't even communicate either.
What the hell's going on?
Copy !req
28. I don't think we've ever had to give up
our missions and come back like this!
Copy !req
29. Think something happened
that's bad news for the fleet?
Copy !req
30. Have you heard that strange rumor yet?
Copy !req
31. —Rumor?
—What rumor?
Copy !req
32. Chancellor, all ARKS have returned
to the fleet as per your command.
Copy !req
33. I take it the other matter was seen to?
Copy !req
34. Yes, just as planned.
Copy !req
35. Very well.
Copy !req
36. What the hell did we have to come back for?
Copy !req
37. —We're still investigating.
—Why don't transmissions work?
Copy !req
38. —There aren't any details at the moment.
Copy !req
39. —Someone owes us a full explanation!
—There aren't any details at the moment.
Copy !req
40. Of course. But please back down for now.
Copy !req
41. What in the world is happening?
Copy !req
42. Huh?
Copy !req
43. Tsk!
Copy !req
44. It's him!
Copy !req
45. Him?
Copy !req
46. Hey, is he glaring at us?
Copy !req
47. Hey, it's that guy.
Copy !req
48. What?
Copy !req
49. Um, is there something I—
Copy !req
50. What was that?
Copy !req
51. Yo, Mister!
Copy !req
52. Oh! Weren't you, um...
Copy !req
53. What the heck, you forgot already?
Copy !req
54. The name's Io! Io!
Copy !req
55. Ah, that's right.
Copy !req
56. By the way, I don't think I
told you my name yet.
Copy !req
57. It's Ash, right?
Copy !req
58. I know because you're pretty much
famous in the fleet, Mister.
Copy !req
59. I am?
Copy !req
60. You're the miracle ARKS recruit who's
made a name for himself in no time.
Copy !req
61. The rumors about you are the talk of the fleet.
Copy !req
62. Rumors? What kind?
Copy !req
63. Huh? You haven't heard anything?
Copy !req
64. Hmm?
Copy !req
65. People are saying you're involved
in some pretty wicked things.
Copy !req
66. Wicked things?
Copy !req
67. What do you mean?
Copy !req
68. Who knows? Isn't that the reason
it's a rumor in the first place?
Copy !req
69. What sort of atrocities are you guilty of?
Copy !req
70. What do you mean?
Copy !req
71. Risa is the kind of girl who likes
to save the best for last, so...
Copy !req
72. I won't shoot you for now.
Copy !req
73. I'm referring to the rumors about you.
Copy !req
74. You too, huh?
Copy !req
75. Who knows? I don't recall doing anything bad.
Copy !req
76. That's what all people who do
bad things say! Huh?
Copy !req
77. Hello? Where are you going?
Copy !req
78. Sheesh.
Copy !req
79. Who would have done this and for what purpose?
Copy !req
80. This is taking a toll on me mentally.
Copy !req
81. It's the famous ARKS from
the dubious department!
Copy !req
82. Let's hit up Ash for some juicy info!
Copy !req
83. Settle down, Pati.
Copy !req
84. Not you guys too. Don't say things like that.
Copy !req
85. I apologize for my sister's behavior.
Copy !req
86. So what's that about? The dubious department?
Copy !req
87. Come on now, don't play stupid!
Copy !req
88. There's whispers that you're guilty
of all the foul play there's a name for!
Copy !req
89. Me?
Copy !req
90. But you can't quite call it slander
since they're all unfounded rumors.
Copy !req
91. Except that makes it hard to deny anything too.
Copy !req
92. But who started the rumors?
Copy !req
93. That there's the problem!
Copy !req
94. Even with all the info we've gathered,
we have no idea where it started!
Copy !req
95. It's odd timing for this to happen when all
ARKS are ordered back to the fleet.
Copy !req
96. Really makes you think a huge
organization might be behind it!
Copy !req
97. As if.
Copy !req
98. Ash, I think it's best if you
don't roam around too much.
Copy !req
99. We'll do some investigating for you!
Copy !req
100. Really? Please do!
Copy !req
101. Sure!
Copy !req
102. Leave it to us!
Copy !req
103. Hey, jerk! You spotted me, didn't you?
Copy !req
104. Klariskrays... Did you come to
bug me about the rumors too?
Copy !req
105. Rumors? What rumors?
Copy !req
106. Huh? No?
Copy !req
107. I don't know what you're on about.
Copy !req
108. But you're gonna report me to HQ, aren't you?
Copy !req
109. Huh?
Copy !req
110. Not on my watch!
Copy !req
111. My coming here to avoid the
standby order is a secret!
Copy !req
112. That's why you're getting a beatdown!
Copy !req
113. Quit it! There are people around here!
Copy !req
114. So be it! I had a bad feeling,
so I sneaked out of HQ, but...
Copy !req
115. you better keep it a secret!
Don't you dare tell anyone!
Copy !req
116. R-Right.
Copy !req
117. And that's a promise!
Break it and you get a beatdown!
Copy !req
118. A-All right.
Copy !req
119. Landing.
Copy !req
120. You have my thanks, Ash!
Copy !req
121. Thank you for getting along with Klariskrays!
Copy !req
122. Where'd you come from, Huey?
Copy !req
123. Rather, are you always following her?
Copy !req
124. Pretty much! That girl does the
best she can to go out and help others.
Copy !req
125. Besides, it's not a bad thing
that she follows her own heart.
Copy !req
126. But don't you think she a tad dangerous?
Copy !req
127. I won't deny it, but she's a sensitive girl.
Copy !req
128. Shouldn't we stand back and watch over her?
Copy !req
129. By the way, she mentioned having
a bad feeling about something.
Copy !req
130. Yeah. She's keen picking up things
a normal person wouldn't.
Copy !req
131. That's why I can't take my eyes off her!
Copy !req
132. Sounds rough.
Copy !req
133. Oh well. That's the life of a guardian.
Copy !req
134. By the way, there's talk of
you being up to no good!
Copy !req
135. That doesn't really concern me too much.
Copy !req
136. I see, and that's good for you!
Copy !req
137. But your friends might be troubled
by the rumors more than you think!
Copy !req
138. See, people have called me a feisty
idiot and worry-wart meathead but,
Copy !req
139. I've explained to Klariskrays
that this isn't the case!
Copy !req
140. That's why she believes in me and—
Copy !req
141. H-Huh?
Copy !req
142. Huey! Thanks for the advice!
Copy !req
143. Gah! We're in the middle of a conversation!
Copy !req
144. Ash!
Copy !req
145. Matoi...
Copy !req
146. What happened? Everyone's saying
rotten things about you now.
Copy !req
147. I... don't know what I should say.
Copy !req
148. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
149. Don't be. But why is this happening?
Copy !req
150. Because Ash's existence was
recognized as a great hindrance.
Copy !req
151. Xion?
Copy !req
152. Xion, did going against
the time stream cause this?
Copy !req
153. While in part it did, it also did not.
Copy !req
154. I've been waiting— I and we—
for this very moment.
Copy !req
155. I must thank you.
Copy !req
156. Without all of your efforts, it would've
been impossible to reach this moment.
Copy !req
157. It's because you were there...
Copy !req
158. that you are here now,
Copy !req
159. that she is here now,
Copy !req
160. and that I am here too.
Copy !req
161. The entire fleet is looking
at me like I'm some criminal.
Copy !req
162. You couldn't have been guiding
me hoping for that, right?
Copy !req
163. This was a side effect of reaching the
necessary state. It's not the final result.
Copy !req
164. Everything is headed in a good direction.
Copy !req
165. All that's left are the final touches.
And then the end.
Copy !req
166. The pillar of Oracle.
The heart of the Mothership.
Copy !req
167. Together with Matoi, I want you to come to me.
Copy !req
168. With me?
Copy !req
169. I ask of you this.
Copy !req
170. For the two of you come... and help me.
Copy !req
171. Xion!
Copy !req
172. Amazing.
Copy !req
173. Attention approaching ship:
Forward sector is off-limits.
Copy !req
174. Please change course immediately.
Copy !req
175. I repeat: Attention approaching ship:
Gateway Ship 22517. Your approach is authorized.
Copy !req
176. Follow the beacons and proceed
to the designated deck.
Copy !req
177. Think that was Xion's doing?
Copy !req
178. Seems like it.
Copy !req
179. I wonder why this place smells
so nostalgic to me?
Copy !req
180. I've been waiting for you two.
Copy !req
181. Now that it's come to this,
we approach the conclusion.
Copy !req
182. Xion...
Copy !req
183. This shall be the last
request that I ask of you.
Copy !req
184. Come to the core of the Mothership.
Copy !req
185. There I will be.
Copy !req
186. And unto me, I ask you to bring my salvation.
Copy !req
187. Salvation?
Copy !req
188. Please... me...
Copy !req
189. Xion!
Copy !req
190. It has come at last, Xion. This moment...
Copy !req
191. This moment we've eagerly waited for!
Copy !req
192. It's been long... so long!
Copy !req
193. With this, I'll finally understand—
you, and everything there is!
Copy !req
194. Chancellor, preparations are ready.
Copy !req
195. Good work.
Copy !req
196. Of course. We would do anything for you.
Copy !req
197. Now we can all be Photoners like you!
Copy !req
198. Yes.
Copy !req
199. Now you can all be disposed of.
Copy !req
200. Huh?
Copy !req
201. That's right. There's more
than loose ends to get rid of.
Copy !req
202. There are also some pesky insects.
Copy !req
203. But soon, I won't need anything.
Copy !req
204. If there's just you and me, that's perfect.
Copy !req
205. Xion's acting strange. Let's hurry!
Copy !req
206. Yeah.
Copy !req
207. sh... Ash... hear me?
Copy !req
208. Xiao?
Copy !req
209. Who's that?
Copy !req
210. Sorry, I don't have time to explain.
Copy !req
211. Just think of me as Xion's little brother.
Copy !req
212. Anyways, it's already started!
He's moving earlier than we thought!
Copy !req
213. Tsk!
Copy !req
214. Be careful, you two!
Anything can happen at this poi—
Copy !req
215. Xiao!
Copy !req
216. Attention ARKS: I am Regius,
first of the Council of Six.
Copy !req
217. There is a state of emergency
which I am about to explain.
Copy !req
218. Just now, a hostile individual
has invaded the Mothership.
Copy !req
219. This person is a member of ARKS and
intends to endanger the Mothership.
Copy !req
220. —Ash...
—They are a threat to the Oracle fleet.
Copy !req
221. They've contacted an external organization...
Copy !req
222. and have released top-secret
information outside the fleet.
Copy !req
223. Furthermore, they helped an
unidentified person infiltrate the fleet...
Copy !req
224. who's been gathering
intelligence of fleet activity.
Copy !req
225. Me?
Copy !req
226. Additionally, it's been confirmed
at numerous occasions that they
Copy !req
227. interacted with humanoid
Falspawn that can communicate.
Copy !req
228. He didn't engage in battle with these Falspawn,
our unmistakable enemies.
Copy !req
229. ARKS! Listen carefully!
Copy !req
230. They've invaded our sacred Mothership
which must be protected at all costs!
Copy !req
231. This is clearly treachery which
endangers the entire Oracle fleet!
Copy !req
232. Therefore, under the name of Regius
as first on the Council of Six,
Copy !req
233. I hereby declare Code ABYSS!
Copy !req
234. Soldiers, to arms!
Copy !req
235. Locate the traitor Ash and
exterminate him at once!
Copy !req
236. They got us!
Copy !req
237. Xiao?
Copy !req
238. This explains why he hasn't interfered with us!
Copy !req
239. He's known about us, but he's been
keeping us busy for this very moment!
Copy !req
240. I'm sorry, you two.
Copy !req
241. The situation seems much
worse than I ever imagined.
Copy !req
242. What the...?
Copy !req
243. Luther is teleporting ARKS to you.
Copy !req
244. I'll try to stop him. Try to break through
and get to Xion as soon as—
Copy !req
245. Xiao!
Copy !req
246. Enemy target Ash confirmed.
Copy !req
247. Exterminating the traitor.
Copy !req
248. Stop it!
Copy !req
249. They're being manipulated?
Copy !req
250. Stop! I have no intentions of fighting you guys!
Copy !req
251. Look out!
Copy !req
252. Thanks, Matoi! This way!
Copy !req
253. Where'd you learn that technique?
Copy !req
254. I don't know! My body moved on its own!
Copy !req
255. Enemy target Ash confirmed.
Copy !req
256. Exterminating the traitor.
Copy !req
257. No way! Afin too?
Copy !req
258. Afin! Can't you see it's me?
Copy !req
259. Ash!
Copy !req
260. Risa! Io!
Copy !req
261. It's such a shame, Mister.
Copy !req
262. I thought you were just an honest,
albeit clumsy person.
Copy !req
263. You guys are being manipulated! Open your eyes!
Copy !req
264. I'm no less sane than I always am!
Copy !req
265. It makes me so happy I can kill you
without anyone getting mad at me!
Copy !req
266. Snap out of it, guys! Ash isn't a traitor!
Copy !req
267. The truth has been disclosed
to every ARKS there is.
Copy !req
268. There's plenty of proof he's a traitor.
Copy !req
269. That is why I must kill you.
Copy !req
270. That's absurd and you know it, Afin!
Copy !req
271. No, no, no! It's useless!
Copy !req
272. Don't you get it? This is Code ABYSS!
Copy !req
273. None of us can disobey the orders.
Copy !req
274. Then again, I couldn't
care less about any of this.
Copy !req
275. I'm just thrilled I can
actually kill someone now!
Copy !req
276. Please, stop! Isn't Ash your comrade?
Copy !req
277. Talking to them now isn't any use.
Copy !req
278. But...!
Copy !req
279. Step aside, Matoi.
If you interfere, I'll kill you too.
Copy !req
280. I don't mind if you fight back.
It's the same result either way.
Copy !req
281. Ash!
Copy !req
282. Run away, Matoi!
Copy !req
283. Matoi, don't!
Copy !req
284. Stay outta the way!
Copy !req
285. Matoi!
Copy !req
286. Farewell, Partner.
Copy !req
287. Stop it!
Copy !req
288. Why? I just don't get it!
Copy !req
289. Why are you fighting against comrades
you've laughed with up until now?
Copy !req
290. If you say you're just following orders,
think of how crazy that is!
Copy !req
291. Yeah, it is.
Copy !req
292. An order like that is crazy. And yet, I...
Copy !req
293. It's true. Why was I trying to kill him?
Copy !req
294. It's like there's another me inside of me.
Copy !req
295. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
296. You okay?
Copy !req
297. Aww, is it over already?
Copy !req
298. Well, I guess I managed to have some fun.
Copy !req
299. And since I'm kinda satisfied now,
I'll stop since everyone else is.
Copy !req
300. I can't believe I was just about to...
Copy !req
301. This isn't your fault.
Copy !req
302. In any case, it sure is weird how
ABYSS was completely nullified.
Copy !req
303. More importantly, we've got to get out of here!
Copy !req
304. Not yet!
Copy !req
305. I still have something I have to do here.
Copy !req
306. I'll need your help, Afin.
Copy !req
307. You got it.
Copy !req
308. I would get a move on if I were you.
Copy !req
309. Falspawn? You're kidding me!
This is the Mothership!
Copy !req
310. I don't know who's behind this, but if
they've let Falspawn onto the Mothership,
Copy !req
311. they really oughta get
their priorities straight!
Copy !req
312. Leave this to me.
Copy !req
313. Afin!
Copy !req
314. But you've got to promise me.
Copy !req
315. Promise me you two will come back safe.
Copy !req
316. All right.
Copy !req
317. Go, Partner!
Copy !req
318. Thanks, Afin.
Copy !req
319. The path to tomorrow
Copy !req
320. Where does it come from,
and where does it return to?
Copy !req
321. If we freeze with indecision,
our destiny is frozen with us
Copy !req
322. My still-lacking heart refuses to look
Copy !req
323. But I reach out my hand, and through
this act the future is reborn
Copy !req
324. In my long-past memories
Copy !req
325. I touched your faint warmth
Copy !req
326. I can't reach you, I can't grasp you,
but even so I want to protect you
Copy !req
327. The only memory stirring keenly in my heart
Copy !req
328. Is a fragile and dazzling image of your face
Copy !req
