Fushi, replicate this!

Got it!

The battle with the Nokkers continues.

Along their journey, Bon makes an important discovery,

a fact that is unnecessary to the functioning of the world.

Meanwhile, another heart…

I-I…

I would like you to be my wife.

Please become my wife.

I-I know.

You're referring to marriage, yes?

What happens when two people fall in love?

Yes, it was mentioned in this book, so I think I understand, but…

It's different for us, isn't it?

This fluffy feeling,

I think I need it too.

Fushi,

a lot of this is new to you so you must be having a hard time understanding them.

Don't worry.

I'll teach you!

What is this feeling?

That's right. I had forgotten.

This body isn't mine.

Fushi, are you all right?

What's the matter?

Stay away from me.

I don't mind.

It doesn't matter to me even if you're a man!

It doesn't matter…

who I am,

just leave me alone!

You must be testing me. How cute!

It doesn't matter what form you take.

I have faith that I will love you!

Who are you?

Are you all right, Fushi?

Mr. Fushi? What happened?

Kahaku forcefully hugged me.

You poor thing.

Please rest in my quarters for the night.

I'm sorry, Fushi.

I didn't think you hated me this much.

I don't think you're a bad person, but…

I don't know if Parona shares the same thought.

Parona?

The owner of this body.

She was killed by Hayase, your predecessor.

Do you know how she died at her hands?

I didn't see it myself, but this was what Hayase said.

"Her face or her stomach?"

"It would be a shame to stab her belly so I went for her face."

"She gave me some trouble, so I had to go for her neck."

Parona…

All she wanted to do was to protect a little girl named March,

and yet Hayase deemed it necessary to punish and murder her!

Was this your goal of murdering the two of them?

Just to hold me?

I'm sorry.

Thank you for telling me what happened in the past.

I would've been kept in the dark if you hadn't told me.

I can't have you affect our mission.

Kahaku, I'm putting a restraining order on you.

From tomorrow on, you are on standby in the camp.

Great Immortal!

Welcome, Prince Bon, Great Immortal.

We are honored to have you here.

Please enlighten us.

Great Immortal!

Is it true that you can bring back the dead?

No, that would be impossible.

Where did you hear that from?

The cleric told us about it after he returned from Uga.

It's the power of the gods!

Good grief.

This may come as a disappointment,

but that is false information!

That's all for today. Let's go through the back before the crowds surround you.

Right.

Thank you for your hard work.

I'm from the church.

I have something I must tell you.

Prince Bon will soon be captured and executed by those who oppose you.

No way! Why?

I'm their target!

Because it's too difficult for them to capture you.

That's why they have turned to seize

those who worship you as the messenger of the gods.

I need to inform Bon right away.

Thank you for telling me this!

Please wait!

Even if you were to escape, they would give chase.

You are the one they are after.

On the contrary, if they have you,

Prince Bon and the others will be safe.

Prince Bon only has one life,

while you are immortal.

Which matters more to you?

Bon's life, of course!

Tell me what I should do.

And that is why we must do this.

We've spread the same message to other cities as well.

Let's come together and support Fushi's mission!

Your Highness,

Fushi was taken away by someone from the Church of Bennett.

Take me to him!

Prince Bon?

I've been searching for you, Prince Bon!

Why did you leave the stage all of a sudden?

I'm looking for Fushi!

Where is the Church of Bennett in this city?

Church? Your Highness mustn't go there!

That's where all those who oppose him gather! Moreover…

You've been suspected of heresy as well.

Me? A heretic?

I am Bonchien Nicoli La Tasty Peach Uralis--

It's not only you!

They suspect the whole of Uralis as well.

And what of it?

I have no time for that right now!

You must be aware of the situation!

-Your Highness! -The mayor is correct.

You will need your people and kingdom to become king.

As I recall, you're the High Cleric of the Church of Bennett or something.

I am Cylira.

You should relinquish him immediately, Your Highness.

Impossible!

Fushi matters more than my people who have high expectations of me!

I cannot betray him!

If you surrender him to us,

we will commend your wise decision,

and the highest order of the church

will support you as the next king of Uralis.

I will be king?

But that would mean sacrificing Fushi

in order for me to become king.

No.

That is the reality, Bon.

This is what you are doing right now.

You've been deceived, Your Highness,

by Fushi and the Guardian Force,

but the church will support you.

Deceived?

I do not wish to go down in history for such unflattering…

Would you wish to see your family be prosecuted?

You'll lose your family and a home to return to.

You'll lose the kingdom to become king to.

All because of your obsession with this one person.

He is immortal.

Even if you leave him be, he will not disappear in your lifetime.

Shouldn't you prioritize your own life right now?

Trading Fushi for his kingdom?

Anyone who loves Fushi would not forgive this!

I have an idea.

Please relinquish him to us, Your Highness.

Papa, Mama, my beloved family,

the people of Uralis, everyone in the castle,

and my dream of becoming king…

Very well. You may have him.

You've made a wise decision.

Please leave the rest to us.

We will be in touch.

Is it really all right to give Fushi to them?

His Highness did this for the sake of his kingdom.

Say no more.

The Church of Bennett has taken the Great Immortal!

He is no devil!

Rise, supporters of the Great Immortal!

Do not forgive what the church has done!

Return the Great Immortal to us!

That's right!

-Return him to us! -What are you doing?

That is no place for you to be!

Come down! I'll hear your grievances!

There, there.

Come now. What is it that ails you?

Depending on your answer, I might have to throw you into the ocean.

That's my question!

Are you betraying Fushi?

Betray? That's rude!

It doesn't matter even if we die first,

but if the church declares Fushi a heretic,

they will torture him for eternity!

Do you know how Uralis has been able to keep its peace for so long?

It's because the rulers know how to make the best decisions for their people,

even if it is difficult!

You just buckled under the pressure from the Church of Bennett!

You don't understand anything!

Safety comes at a price!

That's right!

And you only ever pay for your own safety!

That's enough, Todo!

Todo!

Kahaku! Weren't you supposed to be on standby?

I don't trust you.

Silence!

What is all this ruckus?

My apologies, Your Lordship.

We have apprehended the immortal demon,

and that has drawn the ire of the people.

I was under the impression that he was invited to the city to help.

Did he do something?

No. We seized him precisely because we feared he might do something.

But the people fail to understand our concern.

Regardless, High Cleric,

I believe the people's anger will not be quelled

unless you provide sufficient reasoning.

-That's right! -Prove it!

In this coffin lies Elder Hanui, who passed away two days ago.

He dedicated his life

to the Church of Bennett.

I heard rumors…

that the immortal was capable of reviving the deceased.

If he is the devil's messenger,

then he should not be able to revive Elder Hanui.

On the other hand, if he is indeed blessed by the gods,

he should be able to perform this miracle before everyone.

Fushi, you don't have to force yourself to do this!

It will only cause you pain!

Thank you, Bon,

but I must do this.

I just need to prove that I'm not some messenger of the gods

and let them arrest me.

As long as I do that, the people of Uralis will be safe.

No! You can't, Fushi!

If you realize your own potential,

then…

No one

will be able to control you.

Well then, here I go.

What?

What's going on?

Why didn't he come back to life?

Is that all?

Is this the truth behind those rumors?

All he did was create another corpse!

He is the devil's messenger!

Prince Bon, run!

You bastard!

Todo!

Let's go, Prince Bon!

But Todo…

It's too late!

-Bon! -Inform the rest!

Got it!

Todo!

How can this be?

Where am I?

I lost the treasured armor my grandfather gave me!

What is going on?

Where am I? Where is everyone?

The prince and the woman disguised as a man were taken away.

They took Bon and Todo?

That wasn't the deal!

They said everything would be fine if I let them capture me!

Yes. You were deceived.

Why didn't you wake me up sooner?

You're always like this.

I need to get out of here.

Where is the exit?

There is no exit.

This is a prison made of iron.

In life, there always comes a time when one stagnates,

where one goes around in circles, unable to reach their goals.

Unable to escape, no matter how hard they try…

leaving them trapped and suffocating.

I won't sit idly by even if this is an iron prison.

I'm getting out of here!

I guess once wouldn't be enough.

What are you doing?

Grandpa Beer said fire could melt iron.

I was probably placed in here through that seam.

If I can break through that, I should be able to get out of here!

Bon, Todo, wait for me!

When one cannot escape,

one eventually finds something else to do,

and that is to think.

Now to think about it again from the start, how did it turn out like this?

In order to prove that he was no heretic,

Fushi tried to resurrect the elder.

However, he was not able to revive him as he did Miss Anna.

Why?

This is my theory.

Fushi never met Hanui when he was still alive.

As such, he was unable to replicate what he was like in his living form.

I believe the presence of one's soul

also affects this ability of his.

Then, we were caught.

We paid a huge price.

Why can't I break it?

Is Gugu's fire not enough?

What's happening?

I've been feeling strange since earlier.

Taking on Tonari's form didn't help either.

Is it not poison?

What is it? What is going on?

It appears your body is lacking something.

What can I do?

I need to save Bon and the others…

Wait. It is precisely because you are here

that the commotion outside should settle and peace will return soon.

No longer will strife break out nor the people be killed because of you.

But I haven't saved Bon and the others yet.

So what if they die?

What? How would I know?

They're still in the middle of living their lives!

In the middle?

Yes! They're still living their lives, doing what they want!

They should be satisfied,

and at least leave with a smile on their faces.

That's right. Just like Tonari.

If their lives were to be robbed from them,

they wouldn't be able to do so!

That would be too painful!

It seems you've managed to grasp the human concept of suffering.

How remarkable you've become.

It's as if you're human now.

Is that so?

Melted iron?

How interesting.

How is it, Fushi? How do you feel?

Iron cannot melt unless it reaches this level of heat.

I know, this must be too much for you to handle.

Once your flesh is all melted,

your body will regenerate.

What will come first?

Will your body be completely melted first,

or will the iron solidify first?

Let's see how long you can last.

One, two, three…

Everyone,

we've successfully imprisoned the immortal.

Good work.

With this, half of our work is complete.

I can't get through it!

In that case, we'll just have to take this entire thing with us.

That's impossible.

No! We must! We have to save him, no matter what!

Wait!

We will be defeated if you make a move carelessly!

We must take advantage of their arrogance!

You should have more faith!

Faith? In what?

Luck!

What?

Am I not dead?

That voice… It can't be.

Could it be…

Prince Bon!

How lucky I am.

At ease, everyone.

We have sealed the immortal demon

within this iron prison!

Great!

Thank you, High Cleric Cylira!

It can't be! The Great Immortal should've been immortal!

This is absurd! Return him to us!

One hundred twelve thousand forty-nine.

NEXT EPISODE

Within the iron prison,

Fushi's body is repeatedly destroyed and regenerated.

Bon is put on trial for heresy.

He may be freed on one condition:

Admit that Fushi is the devil's messenger.

Bon makes his decision.
