Go with me!
Louise's Choice
See ya, Partner.
Delf...
Delf!
Saito!
Saito-san!
Saito-san.
Where am I?
You're at Lutis castle.
We made it back.
Back to Lutis?
Oh yeah!
What happened to the Ancient Dragon?
What happened to the dragon?!
Don't worry.
For now...
It stopped moving?
Yes, suddenly at the mouth of the Valley of Orcia.
I saw that, too!
That huge thing curled up like a boulder.
Is there any chance His Holiness killed the dragon from within?
Unfortunately not.
We can hear its heart beating.
I don't believe it's dead.
Which means...
It will awaken soon.
Exactly.
But that isn't all.
Old Osmond.
I am glad you came.
Yes, my apologies for the wait.
It's tragic what happened to His Holiness.
Are you all right?
Yes.
The priority now is slaying the Ancient Dragon.
I'm sure that's what His Holiness would want, too.
You're right.
Let me guess: the reason you summoned me has to do with the Ancient Dragon, isn't it?
Yes, Old Osmond.
It is related to the research you have been conducting while overseeing the magic academy.
Will you tell us your findings?
I see.
So that thing's still alive.
Then we've got to make sure we finish that guy off next time.
We've got to avenge His Holiness!
Right, Louise? Tiffa?
Y-Yes.
Man, I'm starving.
Siesta, is there anything to eat?
Yes, I'll go warm up some soup right away.
Hey, where's everyone from the academy?
I'm told they went back to Tristain.
Lukshana and Ali are still here and said they will return with you to your mansion.
I see.
But I think I won't be going back for a while.
Right, Louise?
I-I'm going to go give Siesta a hand.
Okay...
Louise-san?
I couldn't stand watching him.
He didn't utter a word about Delf.
I'm sure he's grieving for him.
Well...
Saito is strong, so he's fighting to hold in-
He doesn't need to be strong!
I'd prefer him to say that he can't fight without Delf.
That he won't use his power as Lifdrasir.
I'm not trying to say you did anything wrong.
But I don't want to see any more of Saito's life get chipped away.
I don't want Saito to die.
That is the entirety of what I discovered about the Ancient Dragon from the records.
So Louise and Tiffania will be...
...facing a challenge greater than they've ever faced before.
Yes.
I intend to inform them of this later.
Should we not have challenged the dragon before the four-and-four were ready?
True. In the past, it was the four-and-four that defeated the dragon.
But that doesn't mean that all other forces were meaningless.
And in the six thousand years since, our civilization has advanced.
The current Halkeginia has relations that cross borders, too.
That may fill in for the missing pieces of the four-and-four.
Queen Charlotte.
Tristain will deploy the entirety of its army to combat this calamity.
Will Gallia join the fight?
Of course.
Let's request help from Romalia and other countries as well.
The future of Halkeginia...
...will be protected with our own hands!
All of Halkeginia's going to work together to defeat the dragon?
Yes, and I will be leading them.
But only we, the Void mages,
are capable of killing the Ancient Dragon.
Louise, we were all born and raised here on the land of Halkeginia.
We cannot stand aside and do nothing when it faces a crisis.
Though our chances of success may be negligible,
we must try to defeat the dragon.
We will take part in the battle.
Princess...
I will fight to the death, as well.
As one born on this Halkeginia,
I will give it my everything.
Thank you, Louise.
Let us overcome this crisis.
We must!
Yes!
As one born on this Halkeginia,
I will give it my everything.
I was born on Halkeginia, so that's fine.
But Saito wasn't...
Saito wasn't born on this world.
Should we involve him?
Prepare to sortie!
We'll defeat that dragon!
Don't waste any time!
I have to do this.
This isn't the time to mope.
Right, Delf?
The machine in the lake by my home?
You mean that metal tube?
You want to use it?
No, that one is broken.
But would something somewhat like it be in elven lands?
Could something have been stored away somewhere safely?
Heard of any?
No, I haven't.
That sucks...
I thought it might be possible, but...
If I had a fighter jet, I could kill the Ancient Dragon easily.
Saito.
That machine is called a fighter jet?
Yeah, it's a weapon from my world that flies in the sky at amazing speeds.
And it can even sink a warship with missiles.
Missiles?
If it's something that strong, why not go back and get one?
That's not really possible...
Is it far away?
How about using Louise's spell?
You mean World Door?
Is it possible?
Is there a reason it wouldn't be?
Well, my world is...
I'll do it.
You'll do what?
I'll connect World Door to Saito's world.
If it works, Saito, let's go get that fighter jet.
We'll go together.
Louise...
Yeah, let's do it.
Let's run through the procedure again.
First, Louise will open a window to Saito's world.
Saito will then widen the window enough for people.
Why is he leading?
Saito and Louise will go to Saito's world together.
He likes to. Forgive him.
Once the fighter is procured, you will return via Louise's spell.
And that's it.
Can we really make it to my world?
I'm sure we can.
Good luck, Saito-san.
Let's start.
Saito, give me your hand.
I'll be borrowing a little bit of your power.
Sure.
Give me an image of your world.
Please, door to Saito's world...
Open.
It's Japan!
Look at those strange buildings!
So this is Saito's world...
Louise! It's my world!
Let's go.
Louise!
Come on!
Hey, Saito.
I love you.
I am happy I met you.
So please remember me.
Remember that the last image you had of me was one with a smile on my face.
Louise...
Goodbye!
Louise! What are you doing?!
Louise...
L-Louise-san?
Miss Vallière?
What have you done?!
We need him to defeat the dragon, don't we?
Saito came from a different world.
He has no reason to fight for this world's fate.
Even... if he is a Void mage's familiar.
But still-
Ali!
Miss Vallière...
Saito...
Saito!
Louise-san...
She really loves Saito-san...
Otherwise, she couldn't have made this decision.
What the...
What the hell is this?
Louise...
Louise!
Saito-san has?!
Yes, I returned him to the world he belongs in.
I'm sorry.
But I...
I...
I probably would have done the same.
Tabitha.
She's right.
This was probably the right decision.
Princess.
I swear.
Even without Lifdrasir's power,
with my power alone,
I will defeat the dragon!
I, as well.
I will face the battle...
...with everything I have.
Well said.
Shall we be on our way, then?
To the magic academy.
It must be my imagination.
In the past, it certainly was the Void mages who sealed the Ancient Dragon away.
But according to the literature,
Void mages feed energy to the Ancient Dragon at the same time...
...by being consumed.
The dragon gains strength by consuming Void mages.
Therefore, it instinctively goes to where Void mages are.
So the reason the dragon went to Romalia was...
It sensed the presence of His Holiness, one of the Void mages,
and when it awakens, its next target will be...
Me or Tiffa.
That's why I'm taking you two to the magic academy.
There are no villages in the vicinity.
We won't have to worry about civilians during the fight.
Furthermore, the military will be inflicting as much damage as possible to the dragon as it travels its presumed route.
Who knows how effective it will be,
but I'm sure it will buy us some time.
But if we fight at the magic academy, what about all the students?
Don't worry.
Mr. Colbert has already evacuated them.
Siesta!
I told you to go back to the mansion with Lukshana and Ali!
But I came all this way already.
I asked her to.
I've always wanted to see the magic academy.
But it's dangerous here.
Everyone's already been evacuated from the place-
Hey, Louise and Tiffania.
A little late, aren't you?
I was going over tactics to combat the dragon I came up with everyone.
Come here, both of you.
Y-Yes.
Tabitha, you were at the castle until just now.
I flew my fastest, and we passed you.
I'm very sorry, Old Osmond.
Everybody insisted on staying.
I had a feeling it would be like this.
Why are all of you doing this?
You might die if you stay here!
How could we turn a blind eye?
We want to protect this world that we live in.
We, the Undine Knights,
have a duty to protect you two in Saito's absence, too.
Yeah!
And doesn't a situation like this excite you?
Jeannette?
Why are you all here?
I hired them.
They are mercenaries.
They will take anyone's side.
Exactly.
Pretty nice to have us on your side, right?
We don't wish for the world to fall apart.
You guys...
Will you two help out, as well?
Having more Nature mages would help.
Sure.
Thank you. It'll be a great help.
H-Hey, Lukshana!
Well, I guess defeating the dragon here will benefit Neftes later, too.
Who wants a midnight snack?
Everyone...
It's my fault...
It's got to be my fault...
It's because I show weakness.
Louise did this to keep me from using Lifdrasir's power.
But...
Without this power, the Ancient Dragon can't be killed.
Everyone will...
Louise's going to die!
Maybe...
Maybe if I go there...
It's here.
That day, the gate of light opened here.
I was summoned through it.
Louise!
Do you hear me, Louise?!
Louise!
Hey! Louise!
Louise!
Look at that.
"Louise! Louise!"
Maybe his favourite maid dumped him.
Shut the hell up.
Hey, is he crying?
Seriously?!
No wonder he got dumped.
I said shut the hell up!
Giving us a hard time...
He's got no money. What a waste of time.
Let's go.
I can't return to Halkeginia with my power alone.
I can't see her again...
Louise...
What's happening?
The dragon is growing?
It's huge!
Everyone, fall back!
Fall back!
Something's approaching ahead!
Ahead?
That's...
The Ancient Dragon...
We weren't told it can fly!
Fire! Attack immediately!
