That man is a kidnapper!
Please help me catch the criminal!
You're the kidnapper!
What do you mean I'm already dead?
What does it have to do with the incident six years ago?
Someone brought you back to life with summoning magic.
Summoning?
You'll understand if you come with me.
No, I won't!
Give me something to show that I can trust you, Sameoka-san.
We are...
Shizumu-san!
We're going!
Sameoka-san, explain!
Shizumu-san!
Stop!
Cecil-chan!
Shizumu-san!
Cecil-kun, this way!
Sameoka-san!
What's this?
What is going on?
Moyoyon!

It's me.
I'm very sorry.
I encountered some unexpected interference.
Who was it?
The head of Shark Knight Legal Office, Sameoka Kiba.
So it was a dog from Labone.
To execute our plan,
you need to obtain the catalyst as soon as possible.
Don't disappoint me.
Yes.
Let's stay here until it's time to go to work.
Are you okay?
Moyoyon...
I can't sit still...
Calm down already.
Cecil isn't a child.
That's right.
There's probably a good reason why she can't come home yet.
And what reason would that be?
Unforgivable!
Damn you, Shizumu!
A familiar is supposed to protect their master.
And now look what's happened.
This is pathetic.
My master, Hotaru-sama, would never get into so much trouble.
Cecil is such a pain.
I'm sure Cecil-chan is fine.
Bubuhii, you're so nice.
In contrast, Kokki and Nyanyai are...
I haven't said anything wrong.
That's right, Cecil's just a kid.
That pisses me off!
What!?
Shark Knight's Sameoka got arrested?
Yeah.
He just called to ask us to represent him.
What is he suspected of?
We won't know the details until we meet him,
but he was caught in the act of committing vandalism.
However, he mentioned that the police are after something else.
In any case, let's hear about the situation from Sameoka.
Right.
How dare you get in my way.
Release me.
Or else, I might let your secret slip.
You're a suspect now.
No one is going to lend an ear to a criminal.
You're planning to search Shark Knight?
He's suspected of human trafficking.
He travelled to Canada last month.
There is a high chance that he was going to meet a broker.
Is this urgent?
If they destroy the evidence, we won't have any leads.
As my superior, please make your decision quickly.
What are you plotting?
All of your recent actions have been nothing but suspicious.
Shooting all of the suspects, not showing up to crime scenes,
focusing exclusively on Sudo Cecil...
What is the meaning of this?
Sameoka tried to kidnap Cecil-chan!
Give me your approval already!
Don't try and fool me.
Are you going to feign ignorance?
I'm going to be reporting this to internal affairs.
I'll tell you everything once it's all over.
Will that satisfy you?
Do I have your word?
What do you mean we can't see him?
That's ridiculous!
This is our right.
There is no reason for the police to stop us.
These are orders I got from the higher-ups.
Please leave.
No way.
Inspector Quinn!
Is this your doing?
What is this all of a sudden?
We're not being allowed to interview Sameoka-san.
We're going to protest in court.
Are you okay with that?
I'll look into and handle it appropriately.
More importantly, where is Sudo Cecil now?
She's been missing since this morning.
What?
So that's what happened.
Sameoka-san was too sudden.
The number of wizards who can use summoning magic are extremely few.
Summoning magic calls something from the magic realm into our world, right?
Yes.
And I've never heard of it being able to resurrect the dead.
I didn't know it was such an amazing magical power.
It's the greatest taboo in magic.
Oh?
However, after I heard from Sameoka-san,
a few things do come to mind.
When I was in Canada, I heard that the incident six years ago was a conspiracy to wake up my latent magic.
If I really died in the incident six years ago,
why was I brought back to life?
Why does Sameoka-san know that?
And Shizumu-san is also a wizard...
Ahhh!
There's so much going on that I don't know what I should do!
There, there...
Hey Cecilun, what did it feel like to be dead?
What?
Was it kind of fluffy?
Or were you able to see something clearly?
I'm sorry.
I really can't remember anything from back then.
That's too bad.
Moyo here.
She's with me right now.
Sure.
I'll bring her with me.
Looks like Ageha-san is worrying about you.
She couldn't reach you by phone.
Huh?
Oh, the battery is...
Oh, I cried during yesterday's Agurangers.
You really like that sort of thing.
If you don't stop being a sentai otaku,
you'll never be popular with the guys.
I'll only go out with someone who understands my interests.
I'm not like you.
My mind isn't full of men all year round.
Hey, what's wrong with that?
Bring on the festival of men!
Was there some sort of accident?
I wonder.
Kiba-kun
Protect Sudo Cecil!
Two hours ago.
Of course he just had to try and be cool and go out on his own.
As of 9:36AM, Metropolitan Police Investigation Division 1,
Wizard Homicide Unit 15 will be searching these premises,
belonging to Shark Knight Legal Office.
What is this all of a sudden?
Where is your warrant?
The charges are a violation of Magic Prohibition Law Article 1.
We've already arrested the head of your office, Sameoka Kiba.
This is being treated as an urgent matter because there is a risk that the evidence will be destroyed.
The need for a warrant has been waived.
What are you saying...
All of you are also under suspicion of human trafficking.
We'll be looking through your office.
Do you think we'll just let you do that?
Stop it, Sachi-kun.
We will not comply without a warrant.
Do you intend to oppose us then?
Then we'll have you accompany us back to the station.
Try it if you dare.
Well, well.
Just when I was wondering what the ruckus was all about...
You're coming with them.
Sure thing.
Stop!
Why, you!
Shizumu!
Shizumu, what are you trying to do?
Firing your weapon without a warning?
And on top of that, you fired your weapon at a civilian who hasn't even been charged!
Tell me your reasons right now!
Oh?
You're awfully nice today even though we're dealing with wizards.
What?
You were a wizard?
I can't forgive your prejudice and insults of wizards.
But right now, I don't want you getting in my way.
If you can shoot me, go right ahead.
If only you weren't so sharp.
Am I going to die on my lucky day?
Cecil!
I was so worried!
Read the atmosphere, you dirty frog!
Get off of her!
How long do you intend on fondling Cecilcchi's breasts?
I'm glad you're okay.
Moyoyon saved me.
But what are Sameoka and Inspector Shizumu thinking?
Does that mean that the enemy is unexpectedly close?
We've received a subpoena from Inspector Quinn,
but you don't have to go.
This is revenge for how they're treating us for Sameoka's case.
That's right.
We need to figure out what's going on for ourselves too.
I'm sorry for getting everyone involved too.
Sudo...
I'm sure there's a reason for all this.
There's a lot I don't understand, too.
I'm very surprised.
I can't believe that Sudo Cecil would come visit you after all these years.
She came to ask me about that trial six years ago.
Has she noticed?
No way, that's impossible.
Right, Chief Makusu?
No problem whatsoever.
No one on the outside is aware of the irregularities which occurred at that trial.
That's comforting to hear.
I really am grateful to you, Chief Makusu.
It's thanks to you that I was able to become the chief prosecutor.
The same for you two as well.
Indeed.
You gave me capital to start my business.
Right, Shindaiji-san?
And you helped me get appointed as a professor.
I'm very grateful for what you've done for me.
However...
I do believe it will be risky if we continue concealing the truth.
That's all I know about the case six years ago.
I'm sorry that because of me keeping all of this secret,
you were all put in great danger in Boston.
There's nothing for you to apologise for, Cecilcchi.
The ones who are in the wrong are those people who are trying to use you.
I'm sure it's been hard.
We'll try and help you with whatever we can, okay?
Okay.
Most likely, Sameoka's arrest is also related to Sudo.
And...
Why does Sameoka know about this?
Searching the premises of Shark Knight is highly irregular.
I wonder who's behind all of this.
What could they be after?
Should I try a divination?
What?
We might be able to at least learn what those people are doing.
We're running out of time.
Yes, I understand.
Search Butterfly Legal Office.
Doing so will let us obtain the catalyst easily.
Um... Father?
What is it?
After summoning Lucifer with summoning magic,
what will happen to the catalyst?
This is the first time in the history of wizards that this has happened.
It's probably safe to say that there's no way to know what will happen.
However, the catalyst will stop being human.
By offering the catalyst as a sacrifice,
for the first time, we will be able to control Lucifer's power.
We must find the catalyst and offer her to Lucifer no matter what.
Cecil...
Hurry up and capture her.
Do you understand, Shizumu?
Yes.
You forgot something.
It doesn't suit you.
Tonkatsu ramen is delicious!
I haven't eaten anything since this morning.
I'm starving!
Thanks, Natcchi!
Well, I was hungry, and wanted to eat too.
I'm not doing this for you.
Such a rich soup.
The texture of the noodles is just right,
with a good balance of vegetables.
Good job, Hotaru.
I have a lot of female power.
I really am fortunate.
Everyone's helping me so much.
I really am happy.
I'll have to repay all of you some day.
Becoming an excellent wizard barrister comes first.
Being human is all give and take.
Even if you don't want to, there will be times when you will have to give it your all for someone else's sake.
Yes.
Who is it?
Chief Makusu.
Greed knows no bounds.
Your role has come to an end.
Come to Ueno Park without telling anyone.
I'll tell you why we are after you.
If I can find out even a little...
Over here.
We, Shark Knight, are an organisation created to protect you.
What?
You know that wizards were originally divided into two factions called Labone and Macal right?
I've heard the word "Macal" before, but...
We are from Labone.
Macal despise humans and plot to destroy them.
We, Labone, who desire to coexist with humans, have been opposing them.
Over the years, our fighting has intensified.
Then the humans got together to establish the Magic Prohibition Law,
and on the surface it seemed like things had calmed down.
But under the surface, Macal's ambitions continued.
Macal is trying to obtain an even greater power.
Grimoire 365 contains the history of wizards and prophecies.
In the grimoire, it describes a wizard with extraordinary powers who only appears once every several hundred years.
Macal is aiming to use that wizard.
And the wizard in question,
is you, Cecil-chan.
Huh, me?
Macal forced you into dangerous situations to awaken your latent powers.
Got any ideas?
He told me that if I am able to draw out Cecil's latent magic...
But for what reason?
It looks like they are preparing something to take over human society.
However, we're not sure exactly how it connects to you.
I see.
And one of the leaders of Macal is an inspector by the name of Ekuso Shizumu.
What?
There is someone in the shadows directing Shizumu,
but we don't know who that is yet.
Shizumu-san belongs to Macal...
You can't trust that man no matter what.
I will rendezvous with my comrades and come up with a plan.
We won't hand you over to Macal.
We will protect you no matter what.
Don't worry.
Cecil-chan?
Cecilun!
Sorry, I have to go.
And...
Be careful of Tento Moyo.
What?
Hey!
What do you think you're doing?
Don't you realise you are being targeted?
Next time you act on your own, I'll stop sending you dirty messages and making you dirty bento boxes.
You, shut up!
What are you doing here?
A little while ago, Kujira-san sent me an email.
He said he would tell me the truth.
What does that mean?
We'll talk at the office.
We're going back.
I'm surprised you knew where I was.
Moyo-san said you'd probably be here.
Remember?
I have really sharp senses.
Especially about you, Cecil.
I know everything about you.
However, the catalyst will stop being human.
By offering the catalyst as a sacrifice,
for the first time, we will be able to control Lucifer's power.
It's Shizumu.
Put SAT on standby.
We're going in.
