Ranking of Kings (2021) s01e05 Episode Script
Intertwining Plots
1
It's me!
No matter what happens,
I will stay by your side.
That's right.
It's me, Kage.
Stop crying, Bojji.
This is a reunion between men.
Bojji, what kind of face is that?
Actually, I was with you the whole time.
When you fell from the tower…
When your bag got stolen…
When you almost ate the poisoned meat…
I saved you every time.
Though it's saddening,
someone wants to take your life.
So someone assigned me
to be your bodyguard.
Although I have no idea
what he's actually plotting.
I don't know who got their eyes on you,
so I've been hiding from you.
You have to deceive your allies
before deceiving your enemy.
Don't take it to heart.
Life is full of ups and downs.
Okay. Let's go.
We are going down instead of going up.
We are meeting someone
who can make you stronger.
That's right.
I heard that he's in the Underworld.
Come in.
Did you wish to see me?
Domas.
Why did you vote for me as the new king?
How did you know that?
I think it's too much of a burden
for Prince Bojji.
Besides that…
I mean no offense,
but your grace makes you
befitting as the king.
Is that so?
I'm more befitting than him?
My brother is your disciple, you rat!
How dare you vote for me instead of him?
You are undeserving as a vassal!
I have no excuses.
That day when I fought you,
I thought I met someone I can trust.
But you have let me down.
Domas.
I have high expectations of you.
I even considered making you
my right-hand man.
Pardon me?
Unfortunately,
this dream is now impossible.
King Daida, what should I do
to make things right?
For the sake of the kingdom and my people,
I've come to a decision.
But this mission can only be assigned
to the person that I truly trust.
In that case, please assign it to me!
I should be proud of what I have done.
This pang of guilt I feel
is a sign of my weakness
and lack of resolve.
Yes, that must be it.
It's bottomless.
We haven't reached the bottom yet?
Oh, right.
Here you go.
It's just a fabric hat.
But you must have this after all.
You're welcome.
That's more like you.
There's nothing special
about your appearance, so the hat helps.
It's a human skull…
What actually happened here?
What's wrong, Bojji?
"There's a weird smell."
It's gas. This is bad!
The gas produces those flames!
Hurry, Bojji!
I didn't even know how deep the castle is.
Magic Mirror, who exactly are you?
I was an ally who went through a lot
with your father.
You can think of it that way.
Who are you two?
They are King Boss's loyal servants.
They will help you obtain his strength.
Go on in.
Many things have been frozen
and kept here.
What's with this place?
Father!
His body was frozen immediately
after he died.
It is for the sake of this moment.
You…
What do you plan to do?
Magic Mirror, how dare you?
The next step is crucial, King Daida.
Now, we are mixing King Boss's essence
and my secret potion.
What are you up to now?
Concentrate sunlight for heating
to cause changes in its content.
It looks just like the sun.
It's going to be born.
How disgusting.
It is the sacred blood.
After burning its body to ashes,
we retrieve the revived jade piece.
With this, the secret potion is completed.
Drink up, King Daida.
You want me to drink it?
Once you drink the secret potion,
you will obtain King Boss's strength.
The strongest power in the world.
Drink up, King Daida.
I refuse.
How could anyone drink this?
This is suspicious.
King Daida, do you not trust me?
I can't trust you on this.
Have you forgotten about the ranking?
How could I forget?
Therefore, I will work harder
no matter how many years it takes!
The world you are trying to challenge
is not that easy.
I am aware of that.
But I can't drink this.
Somehow, I just can't.
I understand that you feel reluctant.
But you will gain innumerable advantages
after drinking it.
Why don't you drink it
and show me instead?
You guys will do, too. Come on!
It will only work on you
who inherited King Boss's blood.
Just imagine, King Daida.
You will be invincible
and rank first at once.
You will be the king of the world.
Can I really grow stronger
after drinking this?
Prince Daida.
There is no such thing
as an easy shortcut.
Only the time you train diligently
will bring you success.
Do not let others deceive you
or even try to deceive yourself.
I refuse to drink this.
King Daida!
Enough, Magic Mirror!
I have no choice then.
What do you mean?
This is for your own good.
Don't underestimate me.
Magic Mirror…
You might be doing this
out of good intentions.
But I will reach the top
with my own strength!
What are you doing?
Lord Domas!
Wait, where is Prince Bojji?
Prince Bojji is gone.
Where did he go?
Lord Domas?
Lord Domas!
Didn't I say he is gone?
He's gone?
Lord Domas, don't tell me…
Interesting…
They survived
after inhaling the cursed gas?
Oh, my. They have long been cursed.
No wonder they didn't die
because of the cursed gas.
One is a giant
who got his strength stolen.
The black thing is from the Shadow Clan,
whose appearance got altered by God.
But the crown hat is a real masterpiece.
Well done. I can kill some time with them.
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.
Wake up.
You must be Boss's son.
Lord Domas!
It was my duty to get rid of Prince Bojji.
Did you really kill Prince Bojji?
That's right.
I killed him with my own hands.
Are you serious?
I have to end this on my terms.
I couldn't protect Prince Bojji.
-You fool!
-Who is the real fool?
Stop it.
I…
Just what have I been doing?
It's just an arm. Give it a clean cut!
It's me!
No matter what happens,
I will stay by your side.
That's right.
It's me, Kage.
Stop crying, Bojji.
This is a reunion between men.
