THE KINGDOMS OF RUIN
TONIGHT, 9 P.M.
THE CORONATION CEREMONY
OF THE NEW EMPEROR WILL BEGIN SOON
Okay. The coronation ceremony
is going to start soon.
Wow, it's Mr. Redia.
So cute.
Oz here.
Everything is in order
at the Central Avenue.
What a peaceful night.
The 23rd generation emperor
of the Redia Empire, Emperor Goethe,
has brought forth the Gear Expansion
Revolution for our empire.
And that contributes to the development
of the civilisation of mankind.
We've gained the power
to venture into the future
without having to rely
on the power of the witches.
Mankind has regained its pride through
science and its military prowess.
The kind and loving Emperor Goethe
was always with us.
He reached out to us and walked among us.
However,
our beloved emperor couldn't escape
the fate of his illness.
In the memory of this emperor
No. In the memory of this great emperor
who had given so much to this world,
the people of Redia had a sleepless night.
But that was last night.
Now, our country will have a new ruler.

And that is Empress Dorothea!
Empress Dorothea
WHERE IS THE FAN CLUB? I'M JOINING IT.
HER MAJESTY I AM SPEECHLESS
WOW, SHE IS JUST SO BEAUTIFUL
My fellow citizens.
I love you!
Give that to me.
The witch has become the ruler of mankind.
It's getting worse by the day.
She used science to destroy her own clan.
And now, she made herself
the ruler of the world.
This witch named Dorothea
is far crazier
than what the prophecy had said.
AT THE SAME TIME, SCRAP PLAINS
IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE
Madam Dorothea is truly a goddess.
But,
how do I explain this feeling?
THE CHIEF OF THE NATIONAL
INTELLIGENCE BUREAU, SHIROUSAGI
It feels like my childhood friend
has become the idol of an academy.
I know. I need to prioritise
the mission, right?
He's a smart brat.
"YAMATO"
He destroyed the end terminal
"YAMATO"
he got from Yamato.
"YAMATO"
I can't track him now.
"UNKNOWN"
I have no choice, then.
I'll have to track him down the hard way.
Let's look for that young man
who's loved by my goddess.
What are you going to do after this?
Let me make it clear.
I don't intend to stop seeking revenge.
About that,
I have an idea.
There are good people
like Mr. Punch out there, right?
So
Are you asking me not to fight
with people like him?
No way.
Listen to me.
I can let you tag along.
But let me make this clear.
Don't get in my way.
Okay.
Another thing.
Another thing!
What is it?
I want to confirm something
about your magic.
You can make men fall in love with you
and control them through your Love Magic.
Am I right?
Yes
Why didn't you
use that magic on me?
When we were in Redia.
The first time we met.
I'm sure Ophelia ordered you
to bring me back even if
you had to use that magic.
After all, that was the fastest way.
But you didn't do that.
Why?
Why did you try to convince me instead?
Because
you wouldn't like it if I did that to you
the first time we met.
Yes.
That would be terrible.
SAND LAND
WELCOME
Sand Land.
Although it's said to be a small town,
it looks run-down.
Is this town empty?
Wait for me here.
I'll take a look around.
Do you understand?
What?
Wait. Let me go with you.
I won't get in your way. Please.
By the way, what's that bag?
This?
It's filled with various things
from Mr. Punch.
It contains some canned food,
protein bars, bandages,
a wool blanket and a bottle of liquid.
That's liquor.
Look, he gave me this too.
It's amazing.
Look.
I just need to press this.
Ta-da, we have a snowman tent!
This is what Mr. Punch said.
It may be too small for
a young man and a young lady
who will be camping in the wild.
That's what he said.
But I've tried it.
It's surprisingly spacious and warm.
I see. I'll get going now.
What?!
This is a ghost town.
I'm sure this place is haunted.
There's no sign of a fight.
Why aren't there any people here?
POLICE STATION
This seems to be
the biggest building here.
I hope that I can find
some information here.
Is this some kind of shop?
I have no idea.
POLICE STATION
This place is pretty run-down.
So be careful and watch your step.
Okay. I got it
I I'm sorry.
Wait. I can't see anything in front of me!
"RINGING IN THE EARS"
That's painful!
"RINGING IN THE EARS"
I'm stuck between the floorboards!
I'm stuck between the floorboards!
"ANGRY"
I'm really sorry.
I asked you to be careful, no?
If you continue to scream,
I'll leave you behind.
Miss, are you in trouble?
Miss, are you in trouble?
A A ghost.
Adonis, it has shown up.
A ghost has shown up!
Welcome to the police station
of Sand Land.
It's 13:22 right now.
Go to the end of the corridor and turn
right to reach the Lost and Found Office.
The Traffic Department
is right ahead of you.
For public dispute consultation,
please turn left.
Have you brought your resident card?
What?
This is just a hologram.
Mr. Hologram?
Well Do you know him?
He's just a 3D image.
You are so stupid.
Let's go.
Okay.
I see. So, this is the police station
that protects everyone.
But the people
who they are protecting are gone.
We are not suspicious people.
Sorry for the disturbance.
I'm going to leave you behind.
Wait.
Welcome to the police station
of Sand Land.
It's 13:23 right now.
This is the jail.
Neither of us are very fond of it.
My beloved Sasha.
That hurts. I'm sorry, Adonis.
Be quiet. I heard a voice.
You are so beautiful.
With crystal clear eyes.
A song?
Even though they have lost their lustre.
That kiss in the morning.
And the song you hum in the evening.
Under the starry night,
-we confess our love to each other.
-Excuse me.
Can I ask you something?
Excuse me!
That's painful.
You
Wait. Who are you?
This town should be empty.
Also, don't scare me, you brats!
Well
We are just travellers.
I almost had a heart attack.
I'm sorry.
Sigh.
Why are you here?
As you can see, there's nothing here.
Are you on a tour of ruins?
That's what we want to ask you.
Why are you here all by yourself?
Because I'm a prisoner.
Are you going to leave now?
Adonis.
It's pointless to stay here.
Besides,
this place is terrible.
What?
It's pointless to stay here?
Everyone left because of that reason too.
Gear Expansion.
Mankind managed to destroy the witches.
But we are still living in poverty.
No wonder they can't handle it.
The future, the hope
and the pride of mankind.
The great migration happens
because of these grand ambitions.
Don't you think this is like the beginning
of the witch hunt all over again?
In this era, everyone is just imitating
the first person who spoke about these.
How far is the nearest metropolis
from here?
Mamuta. An urban city.
It's around 70km east of here.
Is that so?
Let's go, Doroka.
Okay.
Well
Sorry for interrupting you
from your singing.
Wait for me, Adonis.
Adonis.
Wait for me.
If we don't help that person,
he'll starve to death.
There's no one else in this town.
Although he's a prisoner,
it should be fine to let him out.
That has nothing to do with us.
If that's the case,
can I give him
some of what Mr. Punch gave us?
Listen to me.
Do you think the prison is locked?
Huh?
It's not food
that the husband and wife need.
Husband and wife?
What they need is undisturbed peace.
Let's continue to sing, Sasha.
Don't worry.
Nobody's here anymore.
Those
who insisted that you were a witch
and put you in jail
are all gone now.
So
I'll always be with you from now on.
I'm sorry
that I couldn't protect you back then.
Sasha.
We just need to leave this town
to the two of them.
Okay now. Let's go.
It's time to go to Mamuta.
