Tsevellen Year 223.

Using the Event Induction Computer,
humanity, for the first time,

succeeds in creating a space-time bubble.

The law of conservation of energy is broken

within the space-time bubble by changing
the fundamental laws of physics,

including the Planck constant,
resulting in the emergence of matter

derived from quantum field instructions.

The hyper-physical phenomenon
that allows matter

to extract matter from vacuum fluctuations at will

forms the basis of
the system of technology

that would soon come to be known as Jushiki.

And now it's Imperial Year 497.

What was once called "magic" and
believed to be the domain of dragons

and by the abhorrent is now

the same power that humanity
obtained through Jushiki.

And so,

the dragons and the abhorrent were
no longer the subject of awe or fear,

but enemies to be hunted down.

Those who specialize in
weaving attack Jushiki

and fighting against them are
known as Offensive Jushikiists.

Calamitous Song of Jushiki and Swords

Don't take it so personally.

This may be the buffer zone
between us and the dragons,

but if you eat humans, we have
no choice but to defeat you.

It's a little late for that, isn't it?

We're Offensive Jushikiists. That's our job.

It's a shitty job.

Battling the dragons is
of the highest honor.

I'm content with this.

Sure, maybe to the noble Gigina
Jardi Doruk Meleios Ashley-Bufh,

as a descendant of the noble battle race.

Then would you care to tell me
what that Aini from earlier was?

What do you mean?

You didn't generate enough for that distance.

If I'd been 0.1 seconds later in my
pursuit, you would have been dead.

I...

I just decided that buying
time would be effective

because I knew I could rely on your pursuit.

Come on, would a dragon killer
give his beloved Draken...

You're not worthy of speaking
of the Draken people.

Don't you dare.

All right, fine.

What a pain in the ass your people are.

What a pain in the ass you are.

I knew it was too easy.

The reports said there would
be a pair of dragons...

Formidable enemies in the 500-year class.

Then we know who we need to destroy.

A black dragon.

It's in the 800... no, 900-year class.

An Altar!

Brilliant.

Terrible.

Arsh Modai... A defensive barrier.

Proke?!

It's not going to be as easy as we thought.

Healing Jushiki...

Gigina, do you think we can take it?

I don't know.

I've never fought an Altar before, either.

Excellent.

You freak race.

We don't stand a chance fighting
against that barrier head-on.

We need a plan.

All right, let's go.

Of course we're going!

It's over.

Gigina, you were waiting for me
to fall to my knees, weren't you?

Who could possibly fall to
their knees before you?

Are you listening,
you delinquent Jushikiists?!

Gayus Levina Soleil, is your title
of Viscount just a decoration?

I'm a third son, so technically, I'm treated
as a Vice Viscount, Chief Sazaran.

You're obviously not getting the workers'
compensation that you requested.

But it was an 800-year-old class!

It was a black dragon that
could have become an Altar!

Public funds don't come for free!

But...

It looks like you two need to be taught
what it means to be upright human beings.

I'm going to see if there are any
Jushiki that'll thin his hair out.

Lowly officials only ever care about adhering

to precedent and about
covering their own asses.

But even knowing that it was a semi-Altar,

I'm content that I got to defeat it.

It gave me confidence that I can
defeat a real Altar next time.

Are you getting enough oxygen to your brain?

You're seriously going to die next time.

Do you honestly think the two of us
could lose when we're partnered?

Well, you know, I don't think
we'd lose against most enemies.

May you be blessed by
the sword and the moon.

As I said, the Alsok territory
issue is insignificant.

We need to be thinking about maintaining our

coexistence with the
Lapetodes Seven-City Alliance.

Are you insisting that we give up our
territory to that pathetic, little nation?

Lapetodes would say the same of us.
We need to avoid unnecessary conflict.

Give up one thing, and they'll
ask for more and more.

Compromise is out of the question!

This discussion will never end.

How impudent of you, Cardinal Mouldeen.

Remember that you're the
proxy to the Oujes Emperor.

What would you suggest, then,

Queen Zenobia of Ilum?

The fight over the Alsok territories
with the Seven-City Alliance,

and the mainstream dragon
kind Vaisen and the Kenryu.

Both are a headache.

I'm aware that you're taking action.

But how do we connect these
two and end them both?

Not all will appreciate it.

Assistant Administrator Guzleg of
the Joint Staff Headquarters?

Be careful, my cousin.

There are rumors that a faction
of the military is in contact

with the hard-liners within the church.

They really hate us, don't they?

The feeling isn't necessarily mutual.

Your highness, we have a report.

The Great Wise One would like
to see you immediately.

Pardon me.

Hey, there, Yokarn.

That's an adorable outfit.

I'm always adorable.

Anyway, hear me out.

Something fun just happened.

To think there would be someone who
would bring that up at such a time...

Let them know that our meeting
location will be changed.

Changed? Where to?

Let's go somewhere appropriate.

To the far city of Eridana, where Jushiki and
the conspiracies of countless nations run wild.

The wrong person again.

The matter of the Ninth Holy Land War over
the Holy Land Alsok territorial dispute,

with which talks are ongoing between
the Lapetodes Seven-City Alliance,

appears to be further deteriorating,
with the hard-liners and moderates

of the assembly unable to find common ground.

Elder Orkentius, hard-liner of the Church,

is expected to demand the deployment
of the imperial military soon.

Meanwhile, Cardinal Mouldeen,

representing the moderates,
maintains his silence.

Time to get to work.

Hey, Horton.

How's it going?

Hey, Gayus, long time no see.

Business is slow, as usual.

How about you?

I'd be having something better than

deep-fried pollock for breakfast
if I were doing better.

Ouch.

Our deep-fried pollock
is the best in Eridana.

Also...

You're a regular here.
You get the special service.

You get to hear this week's
Spicy Horton Fortune Telling.

No, thanks.

Your fortune this week...

Your most fortunate death
will be by hanging.

You will have little luck in money.

Trouble with women.

Also, be cosmically aware of reptiles
and clergy being mean to you.

None of that is believable.

Arzel?

Why are you taking pictures of me?

I heard you took down an Altar.

Wow, that's amazing.

A semi-Altar, to be clear.

Are you interviewing me?

You should get a better photo of me, then.

Of course not.

I just took pictures of you by reflex.

Besides, if I was going to write an article,
I'd use a picture of your hot partner.

The newspaper would sell
better that way, too.

Actually, there's an incident
that I'm pursuing.

I just came back from investigating.

What incident?

I call it the Serial Jushikiist Murders.

It hasn't gained much traction
in the media yet,

but three offensive Jushikiists
have been killed so far.

All three were pretty strong, but they've
all been taken out in a single blow.

The must be pretty good.

I'm suspecting they're
all by the same person.

What's creepy is that

the incidents are coming closer
and closer to the center of town.

There might be a murderer
hunting offensive Jushikiists,

coming closer and closer by the minute.

We hunt down other Jushikiists
who've committed crimes.

We make a lot of enemies.

That's for the information.

All right, you should be careful.

Want another fortune telling?

Morning.

Want one?

Sheesh, the princess is so finicky.

Who do you take after?

Gigina...

The usual, again?

It's pretty beautiful,
when you're just watching.

This unsavory aura of poverty... Gayus?

That's not something I wanted
to hear so early in the morning

from a god worshiper like you, Gigina.

The Kudu is a sacred ritual in
which one expresses their wish

for good fortune in battle

and their veneration for the
dragon to ancestors and family.

It's nothing like your petty god.

Throw out the chairs and drawers and cabinets

that you've left neglected
in the office, Gigina.

Or at least fill them with something
or put something on top.

They're just taking up space.

What are you talking about?

Putting things on top of a chair

or inside a drawer or cabinet would
rid it of its grace and functional beauty.

Come down. I need to talk to you.

What is that?

315,000 yen from Rolca's shop.

850,000 yen from that quack
doctor's Czahn Clinic.

What the hell do we do with all this?

Ignore it.

We Draken people have a saying:
"No hard-working person is ever poor."

Just so you know, I teach at a
cram school in my spare time.

I try to make ends meet,

but how I'm going to make it through the
month is as uncertain as quantum mechanics.

Say, Gigina,

what is that ridiculously
unfamiliar gem I see in there?

Do you like them?

They're gems made specifically
for offensive Jushikiists.

ZAM-496 Mk. 4.

They're spectacular, even compared
to the previous model.

Oh, the receipt's right here.

Where are you going?

I don't care.

Wait, Gayus.

Go pick up the Jushiki bombs
I ordered at Rolca's shop.

The payment's been made to the office.
You just need to pick it up.

What, does he have an upset
stomach or something?

Here you go, the item you ordered.

What's up, Rolca?

You seem overly friendly today.

Don't play dumb.

You took down the semi-Altar
black dragon, didn't you?

I'm sure you've made a killing.

Sorry, things came up.

Could you wait until the end
of the month for me to pay?

It's starting to add up.

Sorry.

By the way, how do you know
about the black dragon?

Why wouldn't I?

You're advertising yourselves.

I don't know about this.

They were handing them out
in front of the city hall,

and putting them up everywhere.

Is Chief Sazaran trying to
mess with us or something?

You're getting advertised.

You should be thankful.

Say, why's the town so lively today?

Are you serious?

Tomorrow's the annual Eridana Festival.

Is it that time of the year already?

Oh, right.

Did you really remember?

O-Of course I did.

I stood you up last year with work,

so I made plans a whole month in advance.

I swear.

All right, then.

Now, eat up.

It's a traditional Alurian dish.

Pigeon falusi with cranberry sauce.

Err... Ziv... is Alurian
food always like this?

Yum.

Come on, Gayus, eat it while it's hot.

Th-Thank you.

Pardon me.

It's you, huh?

So have we found guards?

Yes. They should do well.

Lyunerg Imperial University
Graduate School...

Too bad he dropped out.

Did he go to school with you, by any chance?

Yes, we were friends who studied together.

He was a top student in
the research facility.

He could have gone into research, then.

Were they the ones who took
down the black dragon?

Yes.

I see, that's excellent.

What the hell do you want?!

What's wrong?

Oh, nothing, I was just thinking.

You're always thinking, aren't you?

Am I?

Science-oriented offensive Jushikiists
tend to be argumentative.

That's not what I mean.

You're always thinking about
something that isn't here or now.

So you want to know what I was thinking

while I was looking at my girlfriend's
beautiful ass as she was making coffee.

Is that right, Ziveena?

You idiot.

But do you think there could
be anything better than that?

How unfortunate.

Why did this man try to harm me?

Alas, this is not the right man.

I will not forgive

my enemy.
