1
00:05:16,010 --> 00:05:18,080
If you want to get into Class A

2
00:05:18,850 --> 00:05:21,480
work a little more in Class C and B.

3
00:11:50,010 --> 00:11:51,410
What cunning.

4
00:11:52,140 --> 00:11:54,010
You haven't changed a bit, Ash.

5
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:56,410
Charge one clip for the Dragunov,

6
00:11:56,510 --> 00:11:58,310
and two clips for the PPK.

7
00:12:05,050 --> 00:12:07,930
Of course you realize that you will advance

8
00:12:08,130 --> 00:12:11,230
if you gain but two or three points.

9
00:12:12,190 --> 00:12:16,400
Of course you also realize
that as of the next level

10
00:12:16,930 --> 00:12:18,470
you will be bound by time limits.

11
00:12:18,670 --> 00:12:20,800
I want the rest of the points in cash.

12
00:12:22,570 --> 00:12:26,610
The risk of solo play will be greater
than it has been up to now.

13
00:12:28,010 --> 00:12:31,550
Are you sure you still don't want
to form your own party?

14
00:14:02,270 --> 00:14:03,640
Good game, Ash.

15
00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:00,120
Good boy.

16
00:16:00,220 --> 00:16:06,120
Yes, that's a good boy.

17
00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:22,260
Ash has a good strategy.

18
00:18:23,270 --> 00:18:24,500
She'll win for sure.

19
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,100
But this guy is faster,

20
00:18:27,470 --> 00:18:28,900
almost perfect.

21
00:18:38,510 --> 00:18:39,850
Outta my way!

22
00:19:18,450 --> 00:19:19,420
Ash...

23
00:19:20,590 --> 00:19:22,990
All the lines are busy.

24
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,600
Even you have to wait your turn.

25
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:31,600
In that case I withdraw my entry.

26
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,100
But why?

27
00:19:33,900 --> 00:19:35,140
I have a request.

28
00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:38,740
I cannot grant the wishes
of individual players.

29
00:19:39,380 --> 00:19:41,910
All must get a fair chance.

30
00:19:43,810 --> 00:19:45,250
You do understand?

31
00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:49,750
I need information about a Bishop,
who just cleared Field-class A.

32
00:19:50,250 --> 00:19:54,860
You, of course, know more than one
can learn from the hall terminal.

33
00:19:57,030 --> 00:19:59,060
Why is this so important to you?

34
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:01,100
He's challenging me.

35
00:20:03,930 --> 00:20:08,270
But you don't want contact
with the other players.

36
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,080
Isn't that why you play solo?

37
00:20:16,810 --> 00:20:22,020
<i>'Avalon...</i>

38
00:20:22,150 --> 00:20:28,790

39
00:20:29,190 --> 00:20:34,730

<i>'...over the misty water to Avalon.'</i>

58
00:23:55,910 --> 00:23:56,800
Hey!

59
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:03,470
So it is you.

60
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:06,910
You look great.

61
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,750
I hear rumors about which
I would rather not have known, but

62
00:24:51,850 --> 00:24:57,030
seeing as I used to be in Wizard
I overhear this and that.

63
00:24:59,630 --> 00:25:01,660
I know I should give it a rest.

64
00:25:03,630 --> 00:25:06,970
I show up at one hub or another and
end up having to listen to stories which,

65
00:25:07,140 --> 00:25:10,340
to tell you the truth,
I really wish I hadn't heard.

66
00:25:10,570 --> 00:25:12,210
Maybe it's karma.

67
00:25:13,380 --> 00:25:17,110
They say that an extraordinarily
talented player has appeared,

68
00:25:17,580 --> 00:25:21,480
who plays solo, and that it's a woman.

69
00:25:21,850 --> 00:25:25,190
I thought that maybe it
was you and I was right.

70
00:25:25,420 --> 00:25:26,460
Did you check?

71
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:27,720
What exactly?

72
00:25:27,820 --> 00:25:29,390
From where I entered Avalon?

73
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,190
Nah, I found out by accident.

74
00:25:31,730 --> 00:25:33,860
I think it's obvious that we had to meet,

75
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,800
since it looks like we'll
end up in the same party.

76
00:25:48,580 --> 00:25:52,010
It's good being a Fighter,
'cause you can play solo.

77
00:25:53,980 --> 00:25:57,320
I'm a Scout. My job is
to survey the terrain and

78
00:25:58,690 --> 00:26:00,490
to eliminate traps.

79
00:26:01,260 --> 00:26:03,130
I clear the road for the party.

80
00:26:04,290 --> 00:26:06,630
I'm the pilot and the guide.

81
00:26:08,900 --> 00:26:10,470
I have to play in a party.

82
00:26:10,870 --> 00:26:14,470
Any party would do great with
an excellent pilot like you, Stunner.

83
00:26:16,270 --> 00:26:19,010
You finally called me what
you used to in the good ol' days.

84
00:26:23,210 --> 00:26:27,850
No wonder the other former
members of Wizard are still bitter.

85
00:26:28,050 --> 00:26:29,320
Since you are too.

86
00:26:30,350 --> 00:26:31,650
The others resent us, too.

87
00:26:32,860 --> 00:26:38,160
But ever belonging to that party
doesn't help my career, it's the opposite.

88
00:26:38,360 --> 00:26:39,760
It makes it harder.

89
00:26:40,230 --> 00:26:41,400
You see Wizard was...

90
00:26:41,500 --> 00:26:43,270
I don't want to hear it!

91
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,100
You're right.

92
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,170
It's in the past.

93
00:26:49,740 --> 00:26:53,010
I don't have time to
rehash the old days.

94
00:27:03,750 --> 00:27:04,420
Ash...

95
00:27:04,590 --> 00:27:06,020
No need to thank me.

96
00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:07,420
No, that's not it.

97
00:27:08,490 --> 00:27:09,730
Have you heard about Murphy?

98
00:27:16,500 --> 00:27:19,400
I see that, probably not.

99
00:27:21,540 --> 00:27:23,670
If you won't finish that, I will.

100
00:27:33,650 --> 00:27:36,320
It seems he went solo too.

101
00:27:37,120 --> 00:27:38,120
And...

102
00:27:39,220 --> 00:27:40,760
...he got 'lost'.

103
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,010
<i>Even you had to have heard about this.</i>

104
00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:39,750
<i>About a hidden character in Class A.</i>

105
00:28:41,950 --> 00:28:46,090
<i>Supposedly within this field
resides a mysterious neutral being,</i>

106
00:28:46,190 --> 00:28:49,960
<i>a silent little girl with sad eyes.</i>

107
00:28:53,700 --> 00:28:59,740
<i>Some think that she is the result
of a glitch in the game's software, and</i>

108
00:28:59,870 --> 00:29:02,040
<i>they call her the Ghost.</i>

109
00:29:11,580 --> 00:29:13,920
<i>But whatever you call her,</i>

110
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:19,690
<i>it's said that all who have pursued
after her have been 'lost'.</i>

111
00:29:20,020 --> 00:29:24,690
<i>That is why it is best to give up
chasing after something so dangerous.</i>

112
00:29:26,930 --> 00:29:30,570
<i>I'm sure that the news of this
phenomenon have reached even you,</i>

113
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,500
<i>even though you are cut off from all
sources of information.</i>

114
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,540
<i>I heard about this, special type of Class A.</i>

115
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:45,010
<i>This secret highest level of Class A,
is called Special A.</i>

116
00:29:45,450 --> 00:29:48,760
<i>There is no way back from it,
and it's dangerous,</i>

117
00:29:49,270 --> 00:29:53,310
<i>but you can earn a hell of a lot of points.</i>

118
00:30:07,380 --> 00:30:12,850
<i>It's said that the Ghost is the
only gate to Class SA.</i>

119
00:30:14,450 --> 00:30:21,420
<i>That's why a player who's reached the
top level and wants to enter this class,</i>

120
00:30:22,020 --> 00:30:24,590
<i>begins the chase after the Ghost.</i>

121
00:30:27,890 --> 00:30:29,830
<i>Just like Murphy.</i>

122
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:44,070
Stunner!

123
00:31:45,070 --> 00:31:46,000
To the right!

124
00:31:46,100 --> 00:31:47,700
Divert the chopper's attention!

125
00:31:49,770 --> 00:31:50,910
Copper! Cuisinart! Masher!

126
00:31:51,010 --> 00:31:52,710
Concentrate your fire on the left!

127
00:31:53,380 --> 00:31:54,710
<i>My RPD's low on ammo!</i>

128
00:31:54,710 --> 00:31:56,010
<i>It looks bad, Murphy!</i>

129
00:31:56,010 --> 00:31:57,310
<i>We gotta Reset!</i>

130
00:31:57,610 --> 00:31:59,780
<i>Stunner dragged us into this shit!</i>

131
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:01,020
<i>Everybody shut up!</i>

132
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,690
<i>Wizard's never used Reset on the battlefield.</i>

133
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,720
<i>Ash! Ash!</i>

134
00:35:55,750 --> 00:36:03,590
<i>Here Arthur lies,
King once and King to be.</i>

135
00:36:12,430 --> 00:36:14,500
Your data of Avalon?

136
00:36:57,610 --> 00:36:58,650
Come on...

137
00:36:59,620 --> 00:37:01,350
Come on, come on, come on...

138
00:37:01,550 --> 00:37:02,550
Come on!

139
00:37:07,690 --> 00:37:09,020
Come on.

140
00:37:37,820 --> 00:37:41,120
Today the line for Class A is overloaded.

141
00:37:42,220 --> 00:37:43,360
There will be lag.

142
00:37:43,890 --> 00:37:46,000
Have you heard of the Nine Sisters?

143
00:37:46,660 --> 00:37:48,100
Morgan Le Fay?

144
00:37:49,830 --> 00:37:51,070
Morgan Le Fay?

145
00:37:51,370 --> 00:37:51,970
Yes.

146
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:57,710
Of the goddesses who ruled over
the legendary island, Avalon.

147
00:37:59,540 --> 00:38:01,210
There were nine of them.

148
00:38:02,810 --> 00:38:08,750
They carried the wounded King Arthur to
the edge of the world on a black boat.

149
00:38:09,350 --> 00:38:12,420
All the way to Avalon.

150
00:38:13,490 --> 00:38:15,320
The sorceress, Morgan.

151
00:38:17,060 --> 00:38:19,330
Queen of North Galys.

152
00:38:21,500 --> 00:38:23,530
Queen of the Waste Land.

153
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,470
Lady of the Lake.

154
00:38:28,270 --> 00:38:30,510
Patroness of King Arthur.

155
00:38:31,670 --> 00:38:34,940
In the North of Europe there is
another story like that.

156
00:38:35,610 --> 00:38:38,280
Its hero is the castaway, Odin.

157
00:38:38,810 --> 00:38:40,510
Who, with the last ounce of his strength,

158
00:38:40,550 --> 00:38:44,150
swam ashore the most distant
island of the world.

159
00:38:45,050 --> 00:38:47,320
Morgan, the sorceress, helped him.

160
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,460
She offered him her golden ring.

161
00:38:50,630 --> 00:38:53,430
Which bore the promise of eternal youth.

162
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,830
So then Odin didn't even notice when Morgan,

163
00:38:57,630 --> 00:39:00,600
put a royal crown on his head.

164
00:39:02,610 --> 00:39:05,070
And thanks to that enchanted crown,

165
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,580
Odin had forgotten not only about his country,

166
00:39:10,550 --> 00:39:12,780
but about the entire world.

167
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,790
Log me in.

168
00:40:13,710 --> 00:40:15,280
Wait! Don't shoot!

169
00:40:20,950 --> 00:40:22,380
I'm Jill of the Nine Sisters

170
00:40:22,750 --> 00:40:25,890
It is a great honor to meet the famous Ash.

171
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:52,480
Welcome, Ash.

172
00:40:56,050 --> 00:40:58,890
You too will end up with the Nine Sisters.

173
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:00,320
What do you want?

174
00:41:01,490 --> 00:41:04,390
I doubt that I should be
able to get information for free.

175
00:41:04,860 --> 00:41:06,230
Is that so?

176
00:41:08,930 --> 00:41:12,030
Then we can get right to it.

177
00:41:19,240 --> 00:41:23,810
Many people would want to buy
information about your equipment.

178
00:41:24,450 --> 00:41:27,550
There is a rule against the sale of
information about equipment.

179
00:41:28,020 --> 00:41:30,920
There are many ways
to earn a living in Avalon.

180
00:41:35,820 --> 00:41:37,360
Tell me what you know about SA.

181
00:41:37,730 --> 00:41:39,160
You're kidding?

182
00:41:40,100 --> 00:41:42,160
I only know rumors.

183
00:41:42,530 --> 00:41:47,540
What it really is can know only someone

184
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,870
who belongs to the 'real' Nine Sisters.

185
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,810
Does that mean that there's another
'Nine Sisters' apart from you?

186
00:41:54,980 --> 00:41:55,950
I don't know.

187
00:41:56,350 --> 00:41:58,050
But anything is possible.

188
00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:59,680
Murphy!

189
00:42:01,550 --> 00:42:02,820
Oh crap!

190
00:42:03,190 --> 00:42:04,590
A time lag!

191
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,480
Reset!!!

192
00:42:53,500 --> 00:42:56,370
I'm sorry, I made a mess of your room.

193
00:42:56,470 --> 00:42:57,910
Don't worry about it.

194
00:42:59,310 --> 00:43:01,440
Happens to everyone.

195
00:48:49,090 --> 00:48:51,960
<i>From Scythia to Camelot
C. Scott Littleton & Linda A. Malcor</i>

196
00:48:53,930 --> 00:48:57,370
<i>The Legend of King Arthur
Richard Cavendish</i>

197
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:03,040
<i>The Chronicles of King Arthur
Andrea Hopkins</i>

198
00:49:04,940 --> 00:49:08,610
<i>A Kaleidoscope of Arthurian Legend
Toshiyuki Takamiya</i>

199
00:49:16,720 --> 00:49:17,620
Ash...

200
00:49:19,860 --> 00:49:21,460
You don't look so good.

201
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:24,360
Is that due to yesterday's Reset?

202
00:49:24,460 --> 00:49:25,630
Sorry, don't get mad.

203
00:49:26,930 --> 00:49:30,870
I thought that maybe you'd be interested in

204
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,800
how you can find the Ghost and enter Class SA.

205
00:49:42,810 --> 00:49:44,580
Maybe we could eat something?

206
00:49:47,550 --> 00:49:49,450
I hadn't eaten anything good in a while.

207
00:50:02,260 --> 00:50:04,170
I heard from someone from a party

208
00:50:04,500 --> 00:50:07,340
some of whose players have been Unreturned,

209
00:50:07,540 --> 00:50:09,110
that there's only one common point:

210
00:50:09,710 --> 00:50:11,110
the presence of a Bishop.

211
00:50:12,140 --> 00:50:14,150
He's the one who never returns from the game,

212
00:50:14,150 --> 00:50:17,840
and is the special characteristic
of every party.

213
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:19,320
The Bishop?

214
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:20,120
Yes.

215
00:50:20,720 --> 00:50:25,650
Every party that's ever found
the Ghost had a Bishop.

216
00:50:26,720 --> 00:50:29,830
So, not the Bishop but
his class is the condition?

217
00:50:30,090 --> 00:50:31,160
Not only that.

218
00:50:31,330 --> 00:50:36,730
Many parties tried using a
fake Bishop to destroy the Ghost,

219
00:50:37,130 --> 00:50:38,430
and become famous.

220
00:50:38,930 --> 00:50:40,700
That was their biggest mistake.

221
00:50:42,300 --> 00:50:43,540
Maybe it depends on his level.

222
00:50:44,310 --> 00:50:45,270
Exactly.

223
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:52,350
The ground rule for the Bishop

224
00:50:52,750 --> 00:50:56,550
to be able to enter Class SA

225
00:50:56,690 --> 00:50:59,250
is that he has to be at least level 12.

226
00:51:43,370 --> 00:51:44,300
So?

227
00:51:44,730 --> 00:51:48,670
Are you going to change class
from Fighter to Bishop?

228
00:51:50,070 --> 00:51:52,470
You do want to get into Class SA?

229
00:51:53,010 --> 00:51:54,710
I don't have to play in a party.

230
00:51:55,710 --> 00:51:57,550
Murphy also played solo and was...

231
00:51:58,580 --> 00:52:00,780
...a Bishop who reached level 12.

232
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,020
And you?

233
00:52:03,290 --> 00:52:05,790
What level are you? 12, 13?

234
00:52:06,660 --> 00:52:09,120
Anyway, for you it doesn't matter.

235
00:52:09,890 --> 00:52:13,260
You'd have to double your experience points.

236
00:52:14,900 --> 00:52:16,900
You know all to well from watching Murphy

237
00:52:17,300 --> 00:52:21,040
advancing in status takes a while.

238
00:52:21,740 --> 00:52:24,070
Becoming a Bishop takes an
enormous amount of time.

239
00:52:25,980 --> 00:52:29,180
Not to mention, Bishops need
the access fees to match.

240
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,180
And besides, you need a
party for backup.

241
00:52:33,620 --> 00:52:35,580
I don't have the time to change class.

242
00:52:36,490 --> 00:52:38,690
In that case you need to find a Bishop.

243
00:52:41,420 --> 00:52:44,630
It'll be difficult for you to find one
because you belonged to Wizard.

244
00:52:47,100 --> 00:52:48,060
In the first place,

245
00:52:48,270 --> 00:52:51,730
there hardly are any high level
Bishops out there.

246
00:52:56,610 --> 00:52:57,710
Ash...

247
00:53:00,140 --> 00:53:03,010
It won't be easy for you to enter Class SA.

248
00:53:06,450 --> 00:53:08,850
Unless Murphy was still around.

249
00:53:15,990 --> 00:53:17,160
Thanks.

250
00:53:20,500 --> 00:53:21,930
I'll see you later.

251
00:55:25,012 --> 00:55:26,682
Why are you here?

252
00:55:27,252 --> 00:55:30,952
Ask, and it shall be given.

253
00:55:34,922 --> 00:55:39,362
But I think it's you that needs me.

254
00:56:20,602 --> 00:56:22,272
Real meat,

255
00:56:23,542 --> 00:56:25,342
real vegetables.

256
00:56:26,502 --> 00:56:27,642
Rice.

257
00:56:35,912 --> 00:56:38,082
Your dog is very lucky.

258
00:56:39,622 --> 00:56:42,422
Not even people get to eat things like that.

259
00:56:44,192 --> 00:56:45,892
Real alcohol,

260
00:56:46,892 --> 00:56:48,292
cigarettes.

261
00:56:52,862 --> 00:56:55,572
Knowledge that can't be found on a terminal.

262
00:57:16,252 --> 00:57:18,262
All this thanks to Avalon.

263
00:57:19,592 --> 00:57:22,532
The privilege of the solo player.

264
00:57:23,402 --> 00:57:27,002
For the best the game isn't the
means, it is an end in itself.

265
00:57:28,002 --> 00:57:29,802
I've checked you out, Ash.

266
00:57:30,472 --> 00:57:31,642
Stunner?

267
00:57:38,642 --> 00:57:42,252
The ability to analyze data

268
00:57:42,582 --> 00:57:45,752
is one of the most important
skills of a Bishop.

269
00:57:47,222 --> 00:57:49,992
You were a Fighter in the
best party, Wizard.

270
00:57:50,192 --> 00:57:52,102
The party's break-up is a legend

271
00:57:52,202 --> 00:57:58,002
that is still passed on
among players, even now.

272
00:57:59,002 --> 00:58:02,132
But to this day no one
knows exactly why it happened.

273
00:58:03,032 --> 00:58:06,872
Some say that direct responsibility
can be attributed to a Fighter,

274
00:58:07,042 --> 00:58:11,852
who, in a certain battle,
ignored the commander's orders,

275
00:58:12,612 --> 00:58:14,782
called for a Reset,

276
00:58:15,582 --> 00:58:17,082
and disappeared.

277
00:58:40,412 --> 00:58:42,672
<i>Ash? Can you hear me?</i>

278
00:58:43,182 --> 00:58:45,642
<i>Get on the roof and target the cockpit!</i>

279
00:58:46,372 --> 00:58:47,772
<i>Come in!</i>

280
00:58:48,282 --> 00:58:51,252
<i>Ash! Can you hear me?!</i>

281
00:59:02,152 --> 00:59:06,552
Ash!!!

282
00:59:08,502 --> 00:59:10,302
<i>The problem isn't the party</i>

283
00:59:10,402 --> 00:59:14,272
<i>getting wiped out due to a member's
disappearance from the battlefield.</i>

284
00:59:14,612 --> 00:59:16,742
<i>It occurs quite often in Class A.</i>

285
00:59:18,342 --> 00:59:20,012
<i>The problem is that it</i>

286
00:59:20,882 --> 00:59:24,622
<i>caused the break-up of Wizard.</i>

287
00:59:26,182 --> 00:59:28,152
I'd like you to form a new party.

288
00:59:28,322 --> 00:59:30,562
A six-member party, including me.

289
00:59:33,092 --> 00:59:35,632
I need three Fighters, a good Scout

290
00:59:35,832 --> 00:59:38,462
and, if possible, a Mage.

291
00:59:38,632 --> 00:59:39,862
Is that all?

292
00:59:40,332 --> 00:59:42,332
You don't want to know anything about me?

293
00:59:43,642 --> 00:59:45,202
Will you tell me if I ask?

294
00:59:45,642 --> 00:59:48,572
I will, but only within Avalon.

295
00:59:48,872 --> 00:59:51,382
Tomorrow at midnight, enter Avalon.

296
00:59:51,512 --> 00:59:54,152
Meet me at the flak tower in Field-class A.

297
01:00:35,892 --> 01:00:37,422
We're closing in a minute.

298
01:00:39,122 --> 01:00:41,802
I'm meeting someone at midnight in Avalon.

299
01:00:42,602 --> 01:00:45,602
I'm going to try to get into Class SA.

300
01:00:50,602 --> 01:00:55,042
There is no proof that Class SA
actually exists in Avalon.

301
01:00:58,682 --> 01:01:02,652
Avalon is just a game,
regardless of how realistic it is.

302
01:01:02,952 --> 01:01:05,152
But SA doesn't fit the

303
01:01:05,922 --> 01:01:08,922
definition of a game.

304
01:01:09,792 --> 01:01:12,522
And that's why this program is so enigmatic.

305
01:01:12,792 --> 01:01:15,362
It's still Avalon but not quite.

306
01:01:15,792 --> 01:01:17,362
Who are you?

307
01:01:19,202 --> 01:01:22,432
I was once offered to serve as a Bishop.

308
01:01:23,602 --> 01:01:27,342
But now I only serve as
the program's supervisor,

309
01:01:27,942 --> 01:01:29,442
not a player.

310
01:01:30,212 --> 01:01:31,642
Who is the Bishop?

311
01:01:32,342 --> 01:01:35,382
There's no sense in trying to
figure him out, he's a man from nowhere.

312
01:01:37,022 --> 01:01:41,752
It just means that he can access Avalon
from his own terminal and doesn't use a hub.

313
01:01:43,562 --> 01:01:45,192
Is that possible?

314
01:01:45,662 --> 01:01:47,292
Theoretically, yes.

315
01:01:47,932 --> 01:01:52,402
But in reality it requires very advanced
equipment and unimaginable amounts of money.

316
01:01:53,872 --> 01:01:55,272
Seriously, Ash...

317
01:01:55,872 --> 01:01:58,902
I wouldn't have anything to do
with that guy if I were you.

318
01:02:00,142 --> 01:02:01,212
I must.

319
01:02:01,912 --> 01:02:02,972
Why?

320
01:02:06,382 --> 01:02:08,412
Murphy's in SA.

321
01:02:09,212 --> 01:02:11,522
And that's the real reason?

322
01:02:38,612 --> 01:02:40,462
Use room 9.

323
01:02:40,672 --> 01:02:42,452
The Game Master is waiting for you.

324
01:02:44,222 --> 01:02:45,482
Thank you.

325
01:03:13,952 --> 01:03:15,982
I've input your coordinates.

326
01:03:17,182 --> 01:03:20,792
But I don't want you to enter SA.

327
01:03:21,852 --> 01:03:22,922
I'm sorry.

328
01:03:25,022 --> 01:03:27,092
A good Game Master

329
01:03:27,892 --> 01:03:30,202
doesn't intrude upon the player.

330
01:03:31,632 --> 01:03:34,272
I would like to ask one last question.

331
01:03:35,572 --> 01:03:40,172
Are you accessing from a remote terminal?

332
01:03:40,772 --> 01:03:44,142
Or are you an AI that is part of the system?

333
01:03:46,242 --> 01:03:50,822
Either way, you can't be sure.

334
01:03:54,152 --> 01:03:55,522
You're right.

335
01:03:56,862 --> 01:03:58,122
Log me in.

336
01:05:42,062 --> 01:05:44,162
Thank you for putting the team together.

337
01:05:45,032 --> 01:05:48,572
I would've created it even if
you hadn't asked me to.

338
01:05:49,532 --> 01:05:51,672
Didn't you want to ask about me?

339
01:05:52,842 --> 01:05:56,312
You're one of the Nine Sisters,
rulers of Avalon, is that so?

340
01:05:56,982 --> 01:05:59,612
Is it true that you wrote this program?

341
01:06:00,982 --> 01:06:02,582
I'm a Bishop.

342
01:06:02,712 --> 01:06:05,322
A mere heir of the Apostles.

343
01:06:05,752 --> 01:06:08,452
The author is someone else.

344
01:06:09,452 --> 01:06:14,592
Even so, you're no different from them.

345
01:06:14,692 --> 01:06:16,662
You could be scouted.

346
01:06:21,172 --> 01:06:23,872
I doubt I can work well with them.

347
01:06:24,972 --> 01:06:27,812
They're not in my party as such.

348
01:06:28,572 --> 01:06:32,612
They're nothing more than Non-Player
Characters to begin with.

349
01:06:33,412 --> 01:06:34,382
Ash...

350
01:06:34,782 --> 01:06:38,252
There's no use in contemplating
which is the better game.

351
01:06:39,082 --> 01:06:44,222
The one which appears to
be easy, but in reality is not,

352
01:06:44,322 --> 01:06:50,132
or the one which appears to be hard,
but in reality causes little problem.

353
01:06:51,132 --> 01:06:54,472
We find the delicate balance
between these two games.

354
01:06:54,732 --> 01:06:59,072
Constantly setting a higher standard,
and trying to maintain it.

355
01:07:00,442 --> 01:07:02,672
That is our job.

356
01:07:04,212 --> 01:07:05,082
Well,

357
01:07:05,642 --> 01:07:07,382
everyone is here.

358
01:07:07,812 --> 01:07:09,082
Let's move out.

359
01:07:14,952 --> 01:07:18,662
I'm happy that we'll be able
to play in the same party once again.

360
01:07:45,282 --> 01:07:47,522
The coast within the 100m radius is clear.

361
01:07:47,792 --> 01:07:49,822
<i> It's too quiet.</i>

362
01:07:50,492 --> 01:07:52,022
Ash... upstairs.

363
01:07:53,732 --> 01:07:56,262
Makanito, Zilwan, Badi... forward.

364
01:08:21,492 --> 01:08:22,792
This is bad...

365
01:08:23,362 --> 01:08:26,122
This is bad! It's a Citadel!

366
01:08:26,562 --> 01:08:28,692
Now we're in big trouble!

367
01:08:29,232 --> 01:08:30,302
Calm down.

368
01:08:31,002 --> 01:08:35,302
It's the most powerful enemy in Class A,
but it's got its weak points.

369
01:08:35,772 --> 01:08:40,042
Fighters, get closer to it, and its
cannon will lose its advantage.

370
01:08:40,612 --> 01:08:41,512
Ash...

371
01:08:42,012 --> 01:08:44,242
Let the players out front slow down the tank.

372
01:08:44,382 --> 01:08:47,612
Go around the back and take out the engine.

373
01:10:28,582 --> 01:10:32,152
The Bishop wants to sacrifice
these three in the front!

374
01:10:32,482 --> 01:10:36,122
<i>They're not real!
They're just digital decoys!</i>

375
01:10:36,422 --> 01:10:38,862
<i>Forget about them!</i>

376
01:10:42,492 --> 01:10:44,462
Hurry up. Time's almost up.

377
01:11:40,692 --> 01:11:42,322
Where's the Ghost?

378
01:12:16,722 --> 01:12:17,822
Stunner!

379
01:12:22,032 --> 01:12:23,702
I screwed up again.

380
01:12:24,232 --> 01:12:27,632
I will never get another chance like this.

381
01:12:27,872 --> 01:12:29,002
'Again'?

382
01:12:29,602 --> 01:12:31,042
You saw it too?

383
01:12:31,972 --> 01:12:33,112
The Ghost...

384
01:12:34,672 --> 01:12:38,982
You can only get the Ghost in that brief
moment when it takes on human form.

385
01:12:39,442 --> 01:12:42,352
If you're successful, the girl

386
01:12:42,852 --> 01:12:46,822
turns into an entrance to SA.

387
01:12:48,092 --> 01:12:49,622
Say hello to Murphy for me.

388
01:12:50,822 --> 01:12:53,332
It's not your fault that Wizard disbanded.

389
01:12:53,832 --> 01:12:56,132
That's what I wanted to tell him.

390
01:12:57,462 --> 01:12:59,942
I am the one responsible.

391
01:13:00,742 --> 01:13:03,342
Like before, I lost control of myself.

392
01:13:04,542 --> 01:13:08,372
I brought the team to a similar end...

393
01:13:24,192 --> 01:13:25,092
Ash!

394
01:13:25,562 --> 01:13:26,762
Get moving.

395
01:13:27,392 --> 01:13:29,932
The Ghost will not wait for you forever.

396
01:18:11,342 --> 01:18:15,312
Just as I thought. Only you were
able to make it through the gate.

397
01:18:16,422 --> 01:18:17,952
To Class SA?

398
01:18:19,822 --> 01:18:21,822
We call it Class Real.

399
01:18:22,422 --> 01:18:27,392
It's taken huge amounts of data and
very high spec machines to create it.

400
01:18:27,932 --> 01:18:32,662
It's still only a test field, in many ways.

401
01:18:33,332 --> 01:18:35,032
'In many ways'?

402
01:18:35,332 --> 01:18:39,072
There is only one way to finish this game.

403
01:18:39,542 --> 01:18:42,912
Terminate the Unreturned
remaining in this field.

404
01:18:43,442 --> 01:18:47,782
All your data and the equipment
you had before you crossed the gate

405
01:18:47,882 --> 01:18:49,722
were deposited.

406
01:18:50,522 --> 01:18:53,092
All you can carry is one pistol

407
01:18:53,752 --> 01:18:55,852
and one ammo clip.

408
01:18:56,762 --> 01:18:59,862
In this class the NPCs
are operating under freewill.

409
01:19:00,732 --> 01:19:04,502
The moment they are harmed,
the game is over.

410
01:19:05,262 --> 01:19:07,132
There is no time limit.

411
01:19:08,102 --> 01:19:10,142
You can get out of here,

412
01:19:10,142 --> 01:19:12,742
only after you've completed the mission.

413
01:19:13,842 --> 01:19:16,272
If you return in one piece

414
01:19:17,182 --> 01:19:19,212
I'll let you join my party.

415
01:19:19,882 --> 01:19:21,512
Any questions?

416
01:19:23,182 --> 01:19:25,252
Why did you bring me here?

417
01:19:25,722 --> 01:19:28,392
Because no one else dreamed of it.

418
01:19:28,692 --> 01:19:30,092
Only you.

419
01:19:36,092 --> 01:19:39,232
If you don't have any more questions,
let's begin.

420
01:19:39,932 --> 01:19:41,732
Look behind you.

421
01:19:58,232 --> 01:20:02,232
<i>National Philharmonic: Avalon</i>

422
01:20:35,422 --> 01:20:37,522
That's where you will find your target.

423
01:20:39,192 --> 01:20:41,462
Good luck, Ash.

424
01:29:47,472 --> 01:29:58,082
<i>'Avalon, faraway isle of legend...</i>

425
01:29:58,382 --> 01:30:13,372
<i>'...of apple groves and mist...</i>

426
01:30:19,372 --> 01:30:30,522
<i>'Avalon, when will that day come?</i>

427
01:30:30,982 --> 01:30:49,272
<i>'Isle of faery, where heroes go...'</i>

428
01:31:01,452 --> 01:31:02,912
Why did you come here?

429
01:31:05,122 --> 01:31:06,752
Because I'm here?

430
01:31:08,592 --> 01:31:12,422
Even if so, what's so bad about that?

431
01:31:16,832 --> 01:31:19,462
Only you know why Wizard broke up.

432
01:31:20,732 --> 01:31:23,772
That's why I didn't care when
they blamed me for it.

433
01:31:24,742 --> 01:31:27,072
And since then I only fought solo.

434
01:31:28,912 --> 01:31:30,882
Then why did you want to meet?

435
01:31:32,142 --> 01:31:34,182
Stunner said you were 'lost',

436
01:31:34,512 --> 01:31:37,552
but you're simply nothing more
than an 'Unreturned'.

437
01:31:38,252 --> 01:31:40,292
He said that you wanted to win Avalon,

438
01:31:40,552 --> 01:31:43,762
but what stood in your way
were the proud members of Wizard.

439
01:31:44,562 --> 01:31:47,462
Of course no one ever thought
of disbanding the team back then.

440
01:31:47,462 --> 01:31:49,602
It was winning battles one after another.

441
01:31:49,702 --> 01:31:51,802
It was unbeatable.

442
01:31:52,262 --> 01:31:54,502
To dissolve it you needed an excuse.

443
01:31:54,972 --> 01:31:58,402
A defeat for Wizard,
to bring about the break-up.

444
01:32:03,082 --> 01:32:04,512
Is this what you wanted?

445
01:32:07,282 --> 01:32:09,312
You wanted to abandon your friends?

446
01:32:11,022 --> 01:32:15,522
And to spend the rest of your life as
a vegetable in a hospital bed?

447
01:32:35,642 --> 01:32:40,852
Of course you understand
the meaning of Class Real.

448
01:32:41,452 --> 01:32:42,752
Right?

449
01:32:47,222 --> 01:32:49,292
The world is what we think it is!

450
01:32:49,292 --> 01:32:50,692
Get it?

451
01:32:53,692 --> 01:32:57,862
Is it wrong if I think this place is real?

452
01:32:59,202 --> 01:33:02,142
You say that and yet you remain here.

453
01:33:03,442 --> 01:33:04,942
So maybe you're running away?

454
01:33:04,942 --> 01:33:07,372
I don't want to talk about this, okay?

455
01:33:10,182 --> 01:33:14,952
Tell me, what is the natural
colour of your hair?

456
01:33:16,552 --> 01:33:17,852
Huh?

457
01:33:18,722 --> 01:33:22,292
Whatever happened to your
distinguishing mark?

458
01:33:22,892 --> 01:33:25,222
Your pretty silver highlight.

459
01:33:38,272 --> 01:33:40,872
Have you ever been shot by a real gun?

460
01:33:45,282 --> 01:33:50,582
You wouldn't want to feel
that kind of pain, would you?

461
01:33:53,552 --> 01:33:55,792
We really don't have an alternative?

462
01:33:56,222 --> 01:33:58,022
One of us has to die.

463
01:33:59,322 --> 01:34:02,092
The one who lives will see...

464
01:34:05,302 --> 01:34:06,902
...if the body disappears.

465
01:34:24,722 --> 01:34:28,222
<i>'...so many of the brave are
cut down...</i>

466
01:34:28,322 --> 01:34:31,992

467
01:34:32,122 --> 01:34:39,232

<i>'...as black night descends.</i>

471
01:35:50,142 --> 01:35:51,042
Ash...

472
01:35:54,412 --> 01:35:58,012
Don't let appearances deceive you.

473
01:35:59,752 --> 01:36:02,582
This is your class.

474
01:36:04,582 --> 01:36:07,322
Your world.
