Ranking of Kings (2021) s01e12 Episode Script
The Footsteps of War
1
"I want to be the world's greatest king."
How are you supposed to be one?
You can't even hear or talk properly.
You're really clueless.
What?
You know that,
but you're still going to try?
All right.
When you become king, make this place
where we don't have to work.
I will be waiting for that day to come.
Initially, I thought Bojji
was just an easy target.
As one of the royals, he's certainly rich.
Of course he would help
a poor guy like me.
But…
Stop already!
I saw the match.
You were amazing.
You should be the winner of the match.
Be proud of yourself.
No matter what people say about you,
just be yourself.
No, I won't ask for things
from you anymore.
You might find it strange for me
to say this all of a sudden.
I made up my mind.
No matter what happens,
I will stay by your side.
I'm saying this
from the bottom of my heart, Bojji.
It hurts…
Don't you look down on me!
You've got some guts,
cutting your own body to get away.
Who requested your service?
Who are you here to kill?
If you don't answer me…
The new king will be…
Prince Daida!
With the throne taken from him
by his younger brother,
Bojji decided to go on a journey.
It must be a journey to train himself
to become a great king.
As for me,
I listened to Bebin's advice
and protected Bojji in secret.
It's me!
That's right.
It's me, Kage.
Stop crying, Bojji.
This is a reunion between men.
And then, Bojji went to visit
Desher's younger brother,
Mr. Desper.
He started his training
to become the strongest man.
Stop.
What's with all these soldiers?
Prince Bojji, please get on the horse.
Apparently, something strange
is happening in Bojji's kingdom.
Along with the captain
of the Order of the Underworld,
we set off on his way home.
The castle is right there.
Fret not.
We have gathered the best soldiers here.
Daida…
Get up, Hokuro!
You have no time to rest.
Why are those criminals
in Bojji's homeland?
That's the problem.
Someone instigated them.
Instigated?
Whether that person's intention
is to set the country in chaos
or to seize the country,
there are all kinds of possibilities.
Right. You need to know too.
According to the captain,
we don't know who it is,
but someone did send
those criminals to your country.
Lady Miranjo.
Why did you help set us free?
There's no particular reason.
You have regained freedom.
What?
You are free to do whatever you want.
To raid the city or seize this country,
it's all up to you.
I don't understand.
People act in their best interest.
Isn't this your country?
What's in it for you?
My best interest?
Don't worry.
There will be something for me in the end.
In the end?
The exit is over there.
Come with me.
They are all very strong.
GIGANG THE MONSTER OF STEEL
Especially this guy.
KINGBO THE FALLEN ROYALTY
I can't tell how strong he is.
However…
Those two guys feel weak.
I can't even feel their presence.
This doesn't sit right with me.
I dislike mystery.
REID THE COPPERHEAD ASSASSIN
This is real freedom.
It's a diamond!
Amazing!
That's…
Apis, it's fine.
Nobody can hurt me.
Interesting.
These guys are just puppets.
Stop it right now!
What is it?
You guys, stop what you're doing.
Listen. If we get
on Lady Miranjo's bad side,
What if… I'm just saying what if…
What if we can't get out of here?
Then what should we do?
I don't want to get stuck in here.
I beg you. Please put down your swords!
I'm sorry.
Please put down your spear as well.
Apis, do as he says.
I'm thankful!
Sorry for that. We are fools.
We always act before we speak.
It's fine.
Just stay the way you are.
Let's go, Apis.
Those guys are trying
to seize your country.
That's what is going on.
Don't worry.
Lord Desper will be there too.
Mr. Desper?
Hey, Bojji!
He said Mr. Desper will be with us too.
Wait…
Why didn't he come with us then?
Well…
Before I came for the both of you,
I had a talk with Lord Desper.
I see. My brother said that?
Even Oken…
All right. I will come with you.
We are glad to hear that.
Right. How is my favorite horse,
White King doing?
What's wrong?
I returned that beautiful horse
when I quit my position.
Well…
Its gleaming body is as white as snow.
It runs like the wind. It's my favorite.
I miss it so much. My White King.
That's… White King?
What happened?
Well, to tell you the truth…
White King has a temper.
It doesn't let anyone come close
except for you.
We decided to let it do what it wants,
so it just got fatter and fatter…
Stop…
After some struggle,
Lord Desper decided to come
with that fattened horse.
As expected, it couldn't catch up to us.
He will be arriving later.
Wait!
Is this going to be all right?
Mr. Desper is dragging us down.
No.
We will need Lord Desper's wit.
Wit?
Is she doing this solely for revenge?
Is she targeting this whole country
or someone in particular?
If that's the case,
she must be trustful to us.
I'll just do as I please…
This country accepts
a weakling like you as the king?
Lock him up in a cell.
The king is being locked up in the prison.
This is hilarious.
This is my throne!
Not bad.
I'm the king!
This is getting interesting.
I don't think he can defeat Kingbo,
but the fight will tire Kingbo.
Once that happens,
I'll deal the finishing blow.
What?
What's your problem?
What do you want?
What is he doing?
What a fool.
Apis, head to the gate.
You guys should come with us.
You too.
Where are you guys going?
He stopped Kingbo!
What is that trick? Is it magic?
He's enjoying his enemy's pain.
What a freak.
Just finish me off.
You bastard…
He had been hiding his true strength?
I'm the king now? Thank you for this.
Kingbo, you are my successor.
Learn to nurture a loving heart
and become stronger, my son.
How miserable!
He's dead.
For heaven's sake…
There we go.
Lord Domas.
Seems like things are happening
just as King Boss said it would.
Right.
Hold on.
Hokuro. Unfortunately for you,
you are not strong enough yet.
What? No way.
But there's one thing you can do.
I'll leave this to you.
A crossbow?
It's huge.
You should be physically stronger now
after my training.
You will use that to cover me.
Lord Domas.
I can't believe
you are being considerate for my sake.
Of course!
I didn't have much time
to teach you any techniques after all.
Yes.
Let's go. We will destroy the entrance
that leads to the Underworld.
Yes, sir!
They are here.
Apis!
Are you the one behind all of these?
No, I…
Drusi, it's my doing.
It's me, Miranjo. I planned everything.
Lady Miranjo?
How is this possible?
Everyone thought you died
in the previous war.
And now you're…
Miranjo?
That mirror seems familiar.
What is your intention?
I will end this country.
Bury him.
"I want to be the world's greatest king."
How are you supposed to be one?
You can't even hear or talk properly.
