Live Reporter
The Eternal Race is about to reach its
climax with mere seconds to finish!

Live Reporter
Coming in now on the home stretch—
It's Finn and Cyrus!!!

Cyrus
All right, Finn. This is our make-or-break
moment. Time to show them what we got!

Finn
Right, we're going to win! For everyone!

Live Reporter
Oh my, another car has appeared! Can
you see who it is, folks?

Alfred
Marshal Ludmilla, the team in first place
has been sighted.

Ludmilla
Yes, we've got them now.

Finn
Marshal Ludmilla!?

Ludmilla
You're under attack, Finn! Now make way
for the winners!

Alfred
M-Marshal Ludmilla!

Ludmilla
Alfred! What's wrong!?

Alfred
They are coming from the north—

Ludmilla
What? We're being rammed!?

Alfred
Hwaaaargh!!!

Ludmilla
Alfreeeeed!!!

Live Reporter
Team Red Dragon Knights has taken
damage!

Live Reporter
Navigator Alfred has been sent hurtling
into the air! Will he be all right?

Commentator
Alfred is a man dedicated to his work. I'm
sure he was glad to be of service.

Commentator
In fact, I even saw him smiling as he
shot through the air.

Live Reporter
What a good lad. And thus, the fierce
competition continues!

Live Reporter
Looks like it was Team Aeon Lords
who rammed into Ludmilla's car!

Ossia
My, what lively specimens we have here.
I'm afraid your time is up.

Gyurelle
Floor it, Ossia! Let's goooo∼!

Ossia
Let's see how you two react to a cocktail of
my personal concoctions♪

Cyrus
They're gaining on us, Finn. What shall
we do?

Finn
(We're going to lose at this rate... And there's
nothing we can do about it...)

Finn
(Nothing we can do...)

Finn
(It's okay. We did our best. If I close my
eyes—)

"If you close your eyes..."

Finn
I would be betraying everything that I
stand for!

Finn
"Open your eyes, and fight!"

Cyrus
Now that's what I'm talking about!
Full steam ahead, Finn!

Ossia
Flames!? No... Human, how are you doing
that?

Ossia
How is this possible!? You're pushing me
aside?

Ossia
I am superior...! I won't have a mere
human defeat me! I won't have it!!!

Gyurelle
No waaay!!!

Live Reporter
Aaaaaaaand the race is over!

Live Reporter
Victory goes to Finn and Cyrus!

Cyrus
Well done, Finn.

Finn
I couldn't have done it on my own! I had
you navigating, and everyone's support.

Cyrus
Right, modesty is a virtue, but you're
allowed to enjoy your win now, you know.

Luther
Indeed. It would be troubling if our newest
champion was dissatisfied with the victory.

Finn
Oh yes, of course I'm happy to have won!
That's what I entered the race for!

Luther
Very well. Now, as the reigning champions,
you are entitled to one wish.

Finn
One wish...

Luther
You must have had something in mind
when you entered the race?

Finn
Cyrus, are you sure we can go with my
wish?

Cyrus
Yeah. Seeing your dream come true is enough
for me. As an ally of allies of justice.

Finn
Thank you! Well then... To the Eternal
Race, this is my wish!

Finn
I wish—

Need for Victory
Nagi
Tis stated in the rules that the Eternal Race
is to be held once every 100 days, is it not?

Callen
Yes, but it would seem that this time
is an exception to the rule.

Finn
Still, why hold another one just 18 days
later?

Callen
The number 18 must have some sort of
significance.

Callen
And this time the coordinator is—

Clarice
Haa...

Clarice
That was one back-breaking mission...

Clarice
Why do I even do this to myself?

Clarice
No, I know why. It's all for Miss
Ludmilla, obviously!

Clarice
What other reason could there ever be?

Clarice
Ah, there she is!

Ludmilla
As luck would have it, I have been chosen
to be the coordinator of the Eternal Race.

Ludmilla
I hope I can count on you when the time
comes. Thank you, everyone, in advance.

Callen
You also plan to serve as a commentator,
correct?

Callen
It would not hurt you to start counting on
us already, you know.

Nagi
Verily! It shall be our pleasure to share the
burden of your duties, Lady Ludmilla!

Ludmilla
Thank you, everyone... I'm truly grateful to
have friends like you.

Clarice
(Miss Ludmilla looks so happy—
Ah, what a lovely sight!)

Clarice
(I'd love to chat with her... But I don't
want to interrupt.)

Clarice
(I can talk to her so easily when she's on
her own...)

Clarice
(Or even with that airhead Finn around...)

Clarice
(He's always popping up uninvited, where
is he when he could be useful for once...!)

???
Are you the coordinator of the upcoming
Eternal Race?

Ludmilla
I am... And you are?

???
Oh yes, begging your pardon. I am the
navigator of Team Camelot.

Lancelot
My name is Lancelot, Knight of the Round
Table. Pleased to make your acquaintance!

Ludmilla
Well, how very genteel of you! My name
is Ludmilla.

Ludmilla
I am the coordinator for the upcoming
race and...um... Can I help you?

Lancelot
Hnnnn? Oh.
I like the way you smell.

Ludmilla
I...smell!? I did just undergo a 24-hour
whipping drill, but I showered afterwards...

Lancelot
Oh no, my apologies, I did not mean you
literally smell—

Lancelot
Wait, did you say whipping? For 24 hours!?
You train like that!?

Ludmilla
Yes, it is a customary training regimen to
build up endurance.

Ludmilla
Are you interested in this sort of thing?

Lancelot
Am I interested!? A 24-hour whipping sounds
like absolute heaven!

Lancelot
You must let me join you next time!

Ludmilla
Of course! We can do it now, if you like?

Clarice
...

Clarice
(Something tells me I shouldn't let those
two be alone together...)

Clarice
That's it, I am stepping in.

Clarice
I cannot let Miss Ludmilla fall into the
clutches of that fetishist!

Red Dragon Knight
Marshal Ludmilla! The Race Executive
Committee is here to see you!

Ludmilla
Oh dear, I completely forgot about the
meeting.

Ludmilla
Please excuse me, Sir Lancelot.

Lancelot
Of course, I expect you must be busy.
We can talk more when you are free.

Ludmilla
Thank you! In that case, I will see you
later.

Clarice
Miss Ludmilla!

Clarice
Huh? Miss...?

Lancelot
Are you looking for Marshal Ludmilla?
She was just called to a meeting.

Clarice
Oh... I see...

Clarice
(We seem to always be missing each other
by a hair lately.)

Clarice
(And I went through all the trouble to
join the knights to be with her...)

Lancelot
Wh-Wh-Whoa!

Clarice
Wh-What is it?

Lancelot
You have this scent about you...

Lancelot
The scent of strength... Like Gawain...
No, even stronger!

Nagi
Ah, it is you! My resplendent rose has
returned to grace us with her presence!

Lancelot
...!

Lancelot
A resplendent rose... A beauty whose
thorns deliver a painful sting!

Lancelot
How fitting for someone who radiates
such a genuine sense of forcefulness!

Lancelot
Ah, what wouldn't I give to receive a night
of thorny lashings...for training, that is!

Nagi
Me as well! Not for training, though!

Clarice
Ugh...

Clarice
...!

Lancelot
No, wait, come back! Miss Roooose!

Clarice
Ugh, what's with that Lancelot...

Clarice
Everything about her was practically
screaming, "I'm a pervert!"

Clarice
For the sake of Miss Ludmilla's sanity, I
must not let that woman anywhere near her.

Clarice
If she makes a move again, I'll just have to
dispose of her...

???
"Dispose..." Such a dangerous word.

Clarice
Who are you!?

Gawain
Gawain of Camelot. Knight of the Round
Table.

Clarice
(Camelot? I think she mentioned
that as well...)

Clarice
You wouldn't happen to know an insolent
woman named Lancelot, would you?

Gawain
...What has she done this time?

Gawain
Let me apologize on her behalf.

Clarice
I don't want an apology, I want to stop her
from associating with my mistress.

Gawain
Mistress?

Clarice
Miss Ludmilla. Daughter of the venerable
House Aldyne, sharp and graceful, witty—

Gawain
The coordinator for the Eternal Race?

Clarice
Yes, that's her. So, can you make that girl
stay away?

Gawain
I'm afraid not. Lancelot does as she pleases.
I cannot control her.

Clarice
Oh, for...

Clarice
There's got to be a way. Maybe I should
hang a garland of garlic around her neck?

Gawain
Lancelot is not a vampi—

Gawain
Wait, that's it!

Clarice
Garlic? I knew it.

Gawain
No, why would you even—
I meant the Eternal Race.

Gawain
If you win the Eternal Race, you get to
have one wish granted.

Clarice
Oh, that's it!
You're a dead woman walking, Lancelot...

Gawain
I should warn you that Lancelot is a
Knight of the Round Table.

Gawain
Should you wish harm on one of our
members—

Clarice
Don't worry, it's just a figure of speech. But
now I know how I can protect my mistress!

Clarice
I need to go get ready for the race!

Gawain
The way that maid carries herself...
She is not one to be trifled with.

Gawain
I should keep an eye on her.

Lancelot
Oh, Gawain! There you are.

Gawain
Lancelot? Where have you been?

Lancelot
I mean, I was just chatting with the race
coordinator?

Lancelot
More importantly, did you happen to see a
maid with silver hair and red eyes around?

Gawain
Yes, she just left. She was asking about
you.

Lancelot
She was!? What a twist of fate for us to pass
each other by!

Lancelot
I must convince her to supervise a 24-hour
whipping session for me next time I see her!

Gawain
...

Lancelot
What's wrong, Gawain?

Lancelot
Is there something in your eye?
Gawain, you're not about to cry, are you!?

Maid on a Mission
Clarice
Now to enter the Eternal Race and protect
Miss Ludmilla!

Clarice
...Though to be honest, I don't really know
much about that race.

Clarice
The only thing I know is that the winner
gets to have one wish granted...

Elmina
Hey there, sourpuss! Care to share what's
got you looking so glum?

Clarice
Um...who are you again?

Elmina
Who am I? Only someone who's been working
with the knights since forever, you know?

Elmina
Oh, but you're one of the newer recruits,
aren't you?

Elmina
You're probably still getting used to all
the new faces. I'm Elmina, okay?

Clarice
Oh, right, you're that mercenary.
Are you familiar with the race at all?

Elmina
Well, I'll be participating, so yeah.

Clarice
How can I sign up?

Elmina
You just apply through the Executive
Committee. But you'll need a partner.

Elmina
You need a driver and a navigator to make
a team. And it's not easy to find someone—

Elmina
You only get one wish for winning, so both
people need to have the same wish.

Clarice
And do you have a partner?

Elmina
Luckily, I do.

Clarice
So, someone with the same wish...

Elmina
I mean, I've also heard of teams where one
person just doesn't have a wish.

Clarice
What sort of person wouldn't have anything
to wish for?

Elmina
Yeah, most people will have a thing or two
they want in this life.

Elmina
You'd have to either be one of those ancient
sages beyond the realm of desire...

Elmina
or an incredibly good-natured sap.

Clarice
An incredibly good-natured sap... I think I
know just the guy.

Elmina
And I think I know exactly who you're
talking about.

Clarice
Well then, I'm off to find him. And thank
you, my good-natured mercenary.

Elmina
Ahaha! I guess that is fair.

Elmina
Meet the Nice Merc, giving info away for
free and increasing her own competition!

Elmina
See you, my clever knightling!

Clarice
(Now then, all I have to do is find him
and talk to him in person...)

Clarice
Surely the good-hearted fool will hear me
out.

Clarice
It's not an easy pill to swallow, though...

Finn
Hey, Clarice. What's up? Why the long
face?

Clarice
...! How is it that you always show up at
the most inappropriate time?

Finn
Huh? What did I do?

Clarice
Sorry, just talking to myself. Don't mind
me.

Clarice
Can I ask you something, Finn? Are you
planning on entering the Eternal Race?

Finn
Oh, uh, not really.

Finn
There's nothing in particular I'd like to
wish for right now.

Finn
It wouldn't be right for me to enter the
race like that.

Clarice
Right, that's just the kind of person you
are...

Clarice
(There's no way he's one of those "beyond
desire" people.)

Clarice
(If he does think of something, he'll just go
out and make it happen himself...)

Finn
Clarice?

Clarice
Never mind. Sorry to bother you...

Finn
She looked like she wanted to say something.
I hope she's all right...

Ludmilla
She probably wants you to be her partner
for the race.

Finn
Ah, right! You need a partner to enter the
race!

Finn
Why didn't she just say something...

Ludmilla
I'd say she held back when she heard you
say you didn't want to race.

Ludmilla
Clarice is always really considerate
like that.

Ludmilla
Although, she can sometimes take that
concern for others a little too far...

Ludmilla
Still, I think that's all behind her now.

Finn
By the way, I've noticed you've been
watching out for Clarice for a while now.

Finn
Shouldn't you be busy with preparing for
the race?

Ludmilla
Well, we've been through a lot together...

Ludmilla
I just want to make sure she's happy now,
you know?

Finn
I see. In that case, maybe I should keep
an eye on her myself.

Finn
It's gotten pretty late. I guess this is how
it goes when setting up the race.

Finn
I wonder how Clarice is doing?

Clarice
Um...

Hibiki
Hm? You say something?

Clarice
Oh, um, not really...

Hibiki
Kay.

Clarice
No, actually, please wait...!

Hibiki
Wh-What!? Do you want something or not?

Clarice
Um, well... Would you like to enter the
race with me?

Hibiki
The Eternal Race? Sorry, I've already got
plans that day.

Clarice
Oh, really? In that case, sorry to have
troubled you.

Hibiki
It's fine, whatever. But, uh, are you okay?
You look wrecked.

Clarice
No, I'm fine...

Hibiki
That so. All right then. Lemme know if
you need anything else. See ya.

Clarice
(I say I'm fine...but how many people have
turned me down now?)

Clarice
(I can't give up, though. I have to keep going.
I have to, for Miss Ludmilla!)

Finn
I don't think she's having much luck.

Finn
She's really pushing herself despite her
shy disposition...

Finn
She must have a wish she really wants
to see come true...

Alice
Wow♪

Alice
Now that's looking cloudy!♪
Your face, that is!♪

Finn
Alice! You're here too?

Alice
Of course, why wouldn't I be? After all, this
world only exists because of your wish—

Finn
Because of...my wish?

Alice
Whaaat!? Don't tell me you don't
remember?

Alice
Well, it was a pretty big wish. Even she
got some side effects...

Alice
So I suppose it's only natural for your
memory to be a bit hazy, too∼

Finn
A world that only exists because of my
wish...

Finn
Shoot, I just can't remember what it is I
wished for.

Alice
Well, whatever, right? Can't put Humpty
Dumpty back together again anyway♪

Alice
If it's not coming to you, then just relax and
enjoy yourself!

Alice
Thankfully, there are all sorts of fun things
here. Like the Eternal Race!

Finn
Fun... I wonder if that's related to what
I wished for?

Alice
Could be!♪

Alice
Who wouldn't take a swig from a vial
when it already says, "Drink me"?♪

Finn
Right. Well, there is someone I'd like to
enter the race with. I'll go and find her!

Alice
Yup, go get her! Enjoy the world that you
wished for!♪

Clarice
Um, would you like to enter the race with
me?

Jeanne
S-Sorry! I don't know very much about
racing...

Jeanne
And my sister said it's dangerous and that
I should keep out of it... I'm really sorry!

Clarice
No, it's okay. I shouldn't have asked in the
first place. No need to apologize.

Clarice
There's still a few others I can ask, so I'll
be taking my leave.

Jeanne
I don't think that girl is doing too well...

Mikaela
Yeah, I kinda feel bad for her... I know!
Why don't I enter with her?

Jeanne
Y-You want to enter!? I'm not sure that
would make things that much better...

Clarice
With all those people gathered here, I thought
there'd be at least one who would agree to

Clarice
enter the race with me. But it doesn't really
seem so...

Finn
There you are, Clarice! Do you have a
moment?

Clarice
Please make it quick, I'm a little busy
right now.

Finn
Well, if you're still looking for a partner,
would you like to enter the race with me?

Clarice
!?

Finn
I don't have a wish of my own, but I'd like
to help make yours come true.

Finn
I'll just enjoy racing by your side and have
some fun while I'm here. How about it?

Clarice
...!

Finn
What's wrong? Do you need to sit down?

Clarice
No, I just felt a whole day of effort catching
up with me... It made me a little dizzy.

Clarice
All right, then. I'll accept your gesture.
Prepare to give it your all!

Finn
Looking forward to it!

Ludmilla
Good for you, Clarice.

Ludmilla
Still, I wonder...

Ludmilla
What is your wish, exactly?

On Your Mark
Mascot King Commentator
Here at the Eternal Race, it's not all
cars and speed, ladies and gentlemen.

Mascot King Commentator
That's right, we also have the Mascot King
Tournament!!!

Spectator
Awwwwwww!!! So cuuuuuute!!!

Mascot King Commentator
And oh my, what do we have here? Is that
movement among the mascots I see?

Quilvy
I'm just a traveler passing through, vee!

Quilvy
The name's Quilvy! I'm the cutest mascot
of them all, vee!

Vesh
Yip yip?

Quilvy
Don't "yip?" me, vee!

Quilvy
You can't express the true meaning of being
a mascot with just—

Vesh
Yip yip yip∼

Quilvy
How vile! How absolutely repugnant, vee!
Your attempts at flattery are a disgrace!!!

Vesh
Twas not my intention to flatter. Rather, I
am displaying the extent of my power.

Quilvy
Oh really, vee?
You wanna go, vee!?

Vesh
They shall need to mop thee off the floor
once I am finished with thee! Yip!

Mascot King Commentator
That's right, ladies and gentlemen, Vesh has
taken up Quilvy's grand challenge!

Mascot King Commentator
This match is sure to go down in history!

Beni-Shoga
Verily, fervor dost swell here as well. I
pray everyone brought their voices of mirth!

Spectator
Whoooooo!!!

Beni-Shoga
The Eternal Race is about to begineth!

Beni-Shoga
I, Beni-Shoga, haveth the honor of being
your commentator!

Beni-Shoga
Hm? You findeth my manner of speech odd?

Beni-Shoga
Perish the thought! For you seeth, my way
of speech cometh from a distant land—

Beni-Shoga
Oh? I ought to just geteth on with it?

Beni-Shoga
Alas, time is a harsh mistress even here...

Beni-Shoga
Shall I ever have time to regaleth ancient
customs of your land, Lord Nobunaga...

Beni-Shoga
Ahem... I shall composeth myself and
explaineth the rules of the race—

Beni-Shoga
The Eternal Race unfoldeth upon a
gigantic, 60 km long figure-8 circuit.

Beni-Shoga
Checkpoints lieth every 12 km, whereupon
lieth challenges to be conquered.

Beni-Shoga
Thus, the victor must possesseth qualities
beyond swiftness alone!

Beni-Shoga
The victor must possesseth prudence,
wisdom, and be a true team player!

Beni-Shoga
Tis these very traits that maketh the
Eternal Race...the Eternal Race!

Beni-Shoga
And now, allow me to introduceth our
foolhardy contestants!

Beni-Shoga
First cometh forth the noble knightly duo
who walk the path of the Round Table—

Beni-Shoga
Team Camelot, Gawain and Lancelot!

Gawain
In the name of the King!

Lancelot
What merciless trials await us? Ooh, I'm
quivering with anticipation!

Beni-Shoga
Not quite the reaction one would expecteth,
but let us proceed nonetheless.

Beni-Shoga
Next, permit me to present Team Child
Friendly Transfers, Elmina and Saya!

Saya
That's our team name!?

Elmina
You said you have a kitten, that's a child,
right? And we're both transfers. Sort of.

Saya
Well, when you put it that way... Okay, we'll
do our best to make our wish come true!

Beni-Shoga
We expecteth nothing less indeed!

Beni-Shoga
Next up is Team Red and Blue,
with these two spirited competitors!

Astrid
I am Astrid, Commander of the Red
Dragon Knights.

Astrid
Prepare to witness a race befitting the
von Draclow legacy!

Rizette
And I'm Rizette! Just think of me as your
big sister for today!

Astrid
You're running as a "big sister" instead
of a Blue Dragon Knight!?

Beni-Shoga
Sister, knight, distinctions mattereth not
in mine eyes!

Beni-Shoga
Next up is Ga'Luga and Solas for
Team Alpha!

Ga'Luga
It is every man's dream to reign supreme.
Let us seize it, Solas!

Solas
I can see the glory of victory already!
Let's go, Brother!

Beni-Shoga
Verily, I seeth an ardent manifestation
of unyielding determination!

Beni-Shoga
Next up is Team Guardians of Time—
Norza and Chronos!

Norza
I have nothing to say.

Chronos
You have to say something here, Norza.
Perhaps something from experience...

Beni-Shoga
Now now, this race is all about teamwork!
\'Tis about linking our hands together—

Beni-Shoga
Ahem, we were short of time, were we not?
Now, onward, to the next team!

Beni-Shoga
Team True Gru Grim—Darna and Kadu!

Darna
The True Gru Grim will light the way.
Let us all find happiness together!

Kadu
Mm...

Beni-Shoga
Mine instincts doth whisper, urging me to
abstain from exploring that... Ahem!

Beni-Shoga
And last, but certainly not least, a new
challenger bursteth onto the scene!

Beni-Shoga
Shall this be the birth of a radiant star we
all dare to witness?

Beni-Shoga
Team Maid of Knight—
Clarice and Finn!

Finn
Um, Clarice? When did you get changed?

Clarice
Every maid must perfect the art of
swiftly changing outfits.

Clarice
Now, let's show everyone the force of
my resolve!

Beni-Shoga
Thus concludeth the introductions for the
14 members of the seven teams!

Beni-Shoga
Would all challengers please maketh their
way to the starting line?

Beni-Shoga
The one to wave the flag, and also the
coordinator and commentator—

Beni-Shoga
is none other than Marshal Ludmilla!

Ludmilla
Ludmilla here! Best of luck to you all!

Ludmilla
Now then, is everyone ready? I want to
see real passion out there, people!

Ludmilla
Let the Eternal Race—BEGIN!!!

Clarice
Full speed from the start!

Beni-Shoga
Good show! Team Maid of Knight is off to
a flying start!

Beni-Shoga
But lo! Second place, too, doth present a
formidable challenge!

Beni-Shoga
Team Camelot approacheth from the rear,
and...with excessive haste!?

Lancelot
Gawain, we're going a bit too fast for the
first turn—

Gawain
Turn? We'll lose if we turn.

Lancelot
Huh?

Gawain
Sir Gawain, Knight of the Round Table
and acting regent of Camelot—

Gawain
Let us begin!

Lancelot
Begin what, boring into the mountain!?

Lancelot
Hyiiiii—!!!
I could get used to this!

Beni-Shoga
It appeareth we are off to a troubling start...

Reporter
This just in—we have reports of a young
man sent flying over the mountain.

Reporter
Sources tell me the young man is Alfred,
one of the Red Dragon Knights.

Ludmilla
Alfred???

Initial F
In the garage, just before the race—

Clarice
Now then, I've got the quirks of this car
down, so I just need to fine-tune it...

Astrid
You're really giving it your all, Clarice.

Clarice
Commander Astrid...
Can I help you?

Astrid
I'm just checking in to see how everyone's
doing.

Astrid
Though we are competing, so I guess you
could say this is reconnaissance work, too.

Rizette
Hello! Um, I don't think we've had much
to do with each other so far...

Clarice
You're Captain Rizette, right? I've heard
a lot about you.

Clarice
So why are you two down here among the
muck and the grease?

Clarice
You're not really just here to see how I'm
doing, are you?

Rizette
Um, well, I guess it's...

Astrid
Let's just cut to the chase. Why did you
ask Finn to be your partner for the race?

Astrid
This isn't an interrogation or anything,
I'm just asking as a fellow knight...

Clarice
And you came to me instead of asking him.
I get it...

Clarice
Hah, it's getting more and more grating...

Rizette
Grating?

Clarice
Yes, it's grating. How dare he make such
gorgeous girls like you feel jealous?

Clarice
Ugh, it's men like him that are the real
enemy!

Astrid
So, does that mean you don't have any...
feelings...for Finn?

Clarice
You have absolutely nothing to worry
about from me. You see...

Clarice
Kuhu♪ I only have eyes for my mistress!

Rizette
R-Really? Oh, thank goodness!

Astrid
It's not like I was actually worried or
anything!

Clarice
I asked Finn to join me because he's such
a good-natured fool. It's unheard of, really...

Clarice
Even back when I had left House Aldyne
again, he could have just left me,

Clarice
but he went out of his way to come find
me—

Clarice
Who does that? It doesn't make any sense
at all!

Clarice
I can't stand the thought of being indebted
to him...again...

Rizette
Hmm... Seems suspicious.

Astrid
Very suspicious.

Clarice
Suspicious? How!? He's a gullible sap who
always puts other people first—

Clarice
He always just shows up and talks like he
knows you!

Clarice
And you imply I could ever fall for—

Rizette
Stop, stop, Clarice! Let's back things up
a little.

Astrid
Yes, we wouldn't want her becoming too
self-aware...

Astrid
I know how you feel. I used to hate his guts
too, but it all changed with time.

Rizette
Um, anyway, here! This is for you.
It's from the Marshal.

Clarice
What? From Miss Ludmilla!?
Are these...clothes?

Astrid
She said she hopes you'll wear them.

Clarice
She said that...?

Clarice
Thank you, both of you! Kuhuhu, I'm so
happy!♪

Astrid
Well then, see you on the race course!

Rizette
See you later!

Clarice
...

Clarice
(I'm always happy to receive a gift from
Miss Ludmilla...but I wish she'd given

Clarice
it to me herself...)

Clarice
Hah, Miss Ludmilla...

Clarice
I just want to talk to you...

Furious Road
A few minutes into the race—

Clarice
What a bunch of clowns the Knights of
the Round Table turned out to be...

Finn
Well, I'm sure they did have a serious
side to them as well...somewhere...

Clarice
At least that's one less rival to worry
about. Let's keep going.

Finn
By the way, what's with your new outfit?

Clarice
It looks good, doesn't it? Miss Ludmilla
picked it out for me!

Finn
Marshal Ludmilla picked it for you? Well,
it really does suit you.

Clarice
Still, I'm not sure why she couldn't give
it to me herself...

Finn
I'm sure she was just busy getting the
race all set up.

Finn
So, come on, cheer up—

Clarice
Even with her busy schedule, she took the
time to make sure we match...

Clarice
She's so kind...
Kuhu, kuhuhuhu...♪

Finn
Er... You're sad, but you're laughing?

???
Sir Knight—!

Finn
Huh? I know that voice...

Snow White
Go for the gold, Sir Knight!
Peace!♪

Finn
Snow!?

Snow White
Congratulations on passing the first
checkpoint!

Snow White
You can do it, Sir Knight! We're all rooting
for you!

Haku
Best of luck, Finn! The onmyoji from the
Land of Peace are all on your side!

Finn
Is that...Haku? You came to cheer me
on?

Rei
Hello, Finn. I don't quite understand
what's going on, but good luck... Yawn...

Finn
And Sage Rei's here, too! And she's...
rubbing her eyes like she just woke up?

Young Woman
You can do it, Finn!

Spirited Woman
Woohoo! Go Finn!

Finn
Wait, who are these people!?

Clarice
You're quite the ladies' man, aren't you?

Finn
N-No! It's not that!

Finn
What in the world is future me even getting
into!?

Clarice
Future you?

Finn
Oh, huh... It just came to mind...

Finn
(Somehow...it feels like I've met these
people...somewhere in my future?)

Rizette
Finn's getting all the attention again...

Astrid
We are NOT going to lose this race!

Rizette
That's right! Because our wish is to regain
the role of main heroines!

Rizette
People need to remember that I was the
first main heroine here!

Astrid
H-Hey! I thought I was the first heroine!

Rizette
Hmm, you think so?

Rizette
I could have sworn you were only the
second...

Astrid
Only the—! But I was the first to get into a
comedic suggestive situation with Finn!

Rizette
I don't think standing a little too close
counts as a "suggestive situation"...

Astrid
And I don't think I appreciate your being so
cheeky lately, Rizette!

Snow White
Ah, here comes the next team! Oh, but
they're arguing with each other...

Snow White
We all need to try and get along! I should
help them get back on good terms.

Snow Black
(Oh, a cat fight? How intriguing!)

Snow White
Wha—Snow Black!?

Snow Black
(Hehe, it won't hurt to enjoy a little
mischief every now and then♪)

Snow White?
Ahem...

Snow Black
Congratulations on passing the first
checkpoint in second place!

Snow Black
But it's very unbecoming for two washout
heroines to be at each other throats like that.

Astrid & Rizette
W-Washout heroines!?

Snow Black
Well, that's what you are, aren't you? I mean,
I've had sooo many more events lately.

Snow White
(Hey, I think they're turning around...)

Snow Black
Yes, they're certainly coming back at
full speed...

Astrid & Rizette
WHO ARE YOU CALLING A WASHOUT
HEROINE!?

Snow Black
(Over to you, Snow∼)

Snow White
Wait, Snow Black!? Why would you leave
me at a time like this!

Astrid
Why do YOU get so many events!?

Rizette
I don't even have a wedding outfit yet!!!

Snow White
S-Somebody heeeeelp—!

Finn
We should be coming up to the second
checkpoint soon!

Clarice
Yes, I can see someone over there. It's...

Cyrus
All righty, you can pull up right there.
This is the second checkpoint.

Finn
It's Cyrus. Why is he telling us to stop,
though?

Cyrus
There is a challenge you must face in
order to pass the second checkpoint.

Clarice
Go on, then. What's the challenge?

Cyrus
What's the hurry, Miss Maid? Wait..you
are a real one, aren't you?

Clarice
What do you mean?

Cyrus
A maid is no mere handservant or
assistant. A maid is one step further...

Cyrus
A maid must be moe!

Finn
Um, Cyrus? You're not behaving like
your usual self...

Cyrus
I'm right as rain, dear Finn. But you'd better
start contemplating the meaning of maid.

Finn
Does that mean...what I think it means?

Cyrus
That's right! This is the second checkpoint
challenge!

Clarice
...

Clarice
I can feel a headache coming...

Finn
This is a joke, right? We all know how
you like to mess with people.

Cyrus
Now that's just hurtful. And no, I'm not
joking, Finn.

Cyrus
I want to see both of you become
a maid!

Cyrus
And do the "Moe Moe Kyun∼!"

Finn
Moe moe...?

Cyrus
It's the three magic words that have the
power to turn anyone into a maid.

Cyrus
But you need to comprehend moe for the
spell to work.

Finn
Wh-What is that "moe"...?

Cyrus
Good, Finn. Lean into this uncertainty, for
that will make you all the more powerful.

Finn
I think Nagi mentioned hearing about
something similar in his travels.

Finn
It means "cute," right?

Finn
And...hearts are cute?

Cyrus
Ooh, you're getting warmer.

Finn
So if I make a ♡ with my hands, then say
the words...

Finn
M-Moe Moe...Kyun...

Finn
This is so embarrassing!!!

Cyrus
Yes! To be moe one must be flushed
with embarrassment... Not half bad!

Cyrus
Now it's your turn. Show me your maid
power!

Clarice
I'm a real maid, whether I prove it or not.
Ugh, moe, you say?

Clarice
Moe Moe...

Clarice
...toil and trouble, fire burn and cauldron
bubble!

Cyrus
Aaah!

Finn
Clarice! Was that a burning spell!?

Clarice
I thought I'd light his fire.

Cyrus
That's way too literal!

Clarice
But we can pass now, right?

Cyrus
Ah, but to be pierced by an icy dagger of a
maid's glance... How chilling!

Cyrus
Haha, you've broadened the true meaning
of being a maid! You may pass.

Finn
I think there really was something wrong
with him.

Clarice
There's no time to worry about that now.
Second place is gaining on us.

Finn
Right, back to the race!

Finn
See you later, Cyrus! Make sure you get
some sleep and some food in you!

Cyrus
To see you smile like this after confronting
death time and time again...

Cyrus
Aaah, I do like this world!
I'm so glad we won that last race...

Cyrus
Now then, let's have a little more fun with
all this chaos.

Cyrus
Who's next? I can't wait...

Elmina
Damn it! I couldn't shake them on the
turn!

Saya
Everything is in working order. Let's keep
going!

Elmina
I wish they'd just lay off already. I can't
even stand the sight of them.

Elmina
Just who do they think they are?
"True Gru Grim," my ass!

Saya
Here they come!

Darna
The teachings of the True Gru Grim are
very simple—

Darna
"Get along with everyone," and
"Remember: the present is a fabulous gift!"

Darna
Let us all enjoy this gift together—!

Kadu
Mm.

Elmina
You're talking about getting along
with everyone!? Seriously!

Saya
Elmina! Above us!

Elmina
Tch! An iron cage? Up there? Give me a
break!

Saya
You just keep your eyes on the road! I'll
handle this contraption.

Elmina
Rightio, Saya!

Saya
This will be a piece of cake. It's what I
trained for!

Saya
Wish me luck!

Beni-Shoga
Oh my! Saya hath sprungeth forth from
the car to banish the descending cage!

Ludmilla
Haha, nice work! I'd love to have someone
like that with the Red Dragon Knights!

Beni-Shoga
And what is this? A flash flood doth
approach from the right?

Elmina
This is just a sprinkle!

Beni-Shoga
Elmina demonstrateth amazing skills and
slipeths past the deluge!

Darna
Impressive! The True Gru Grim teaches us
not to get swept away by water nor words—

Darna
You are a true reflection of the teachings!
Won't you come back to us, Elmina?

Darna
Knowing you, you'll rise up to the rank of
Apostle again in no time.

Elmina
I can't believe I have to listen to this! You
are absolutely out of your minds!

Saya
Calm down, Elmina... You need to focus on
driving!

Elmina
Sorry... I shouldn't let them get to me...

Elmina
We've got our mission—
to do good in this world!

Saya
Right, and we need to win this race in
order to do just that!

Elmina
First Apostle Darna, this is a racetrack,
not a church service!

Elmina
I suggest you put your pedal to the metal
instead of spouting out sermons.

Darna
Haha, you have a point there. We shall
focus on the race for now.

Darna
But once we win, we'll get you back on our
side, Elmina!

Elmina
Don't assume we're just going to hand over
the gold!

Elmina
We are vengeance incarnate, and our
passion knows no bounds!

Saya
That's right! We won't stop until we bring
good to this world!

Darna
I don't know about that, but we have our
mission too—

Darna
to spread the word of the True Gru Grim!

Darna
We cannot lose! Right, Kadu?

Kadu
Mm.

Saya
The competition looks tough, Elmina.
We must press forward, 110%!

Elmina
I was going to save it for later, but you're
right. We can't lose this.

Elmina
Switching to jet engine!!!

Beni-Shoga
Do mine eyes deceiveth me? Elmina and
Saya blast ahead at breakneck velocity!

Beni-Shoga
...Is that even allowed?

Luther
Absolutely. Our reputation would suffer if
we were to make a fuss over such details.

Ludmilla
But the second engine...

Luther
This is the natural order of things.

Ludmilla
The natural order!?

Luther
And now, I am going back to the
Pillar Room.

Luther
Chief Referee Luther, over and out.

Ludmilla
I guess if the Chief Referee says so...

Beni-Shoga
W-Well, let us returneth to the race!

Ludmilla
Yes, I see Team Child Friendly Transfers
are approaching the second checkpoint.

Cyrus
Ah, Elmina and Saya are next. Those two
sure seem to be connected by fate...

Cyrus
I think this time my assignment should be
a little more elaborate.

Cyrus
Maybe I could even go for a bunny maid?

Cyrus
Step right up, ladies! Your next task is to
become a bunny ma—

Elmina & Saya
—

Saya
Elmina!

Elmina
Yes, I see. It's the root of all evil!

Cyrus
Hey! You're not even going to stop?

Cyrus
If you're going to cheat, you could at least
make it less boring than just driving past—

Cyrus
Wait... You're not going past me...
You're coming AT me!?

Elmina
DIEEEEEE!!!

Cyrus
Hoo boy, that was close! I'd be roadkill if
they'd hit me at this speed...

Cyrus
You've got the wrong guy, ladies. I am but
a humble checkpoint master.

Elmina
Oh, we've got the right guy, all right.
You are the greatest villain I know!

Saya
Yes, and our wish is to get rid of all evil!

Cyrus
Excuse me! I'll have you know that I am
an incredibly virtuous man!

Elmina
Virtuous? Ha! Don't make me laugh!

Elmina
You let me rot in a jail cell in that world
full of dragons for who knows how long!

Saya
And I was in a taxi when you drove me
into the river! I thought I was going to die!

Saya
I may be a vessel, but I can still feel pain,
you know! And it was freezing in there!

Elmina
It's payback time!

Saya
We won't let anyone else fall victim to your
schemes!

Cyrus
Looks like it's time to call it a day.
Too bad I won't get to see anymore maids...

Cyrus
Well then, I'll be taking my leave.
I bid you adieu, ladies!

Elmina
Damn it!!! He got away!

Saya
Get back heeere!!!

Cyrus
Oh, right.

Cyrus
If you're wondering how in the world Elmina
managed to get out of that prison—

Cyrus
Just wait a little bit longer, okay?

Cyrus
And if you already know that, well.
Revel in the festivities!

Cyrus
Just like I do!

Saya
There he is, Elmina!!!

Elmina
Youuuuu!!!

Cyrus
See you in some other world!

Darna
What was that just now?

Kadu
I wonder.

Darna
Seemed like a bother.
But, as we all know—

Darna
It's times like these when a little milk
will cure what ails you!

Kadu
The seventh lesson of the True Gru Grim!

Kadu
"A glass of milk a day means everyone
gets to play!"

Darna
That's exactly right, Kadu! By the way—

Darna
You've been very silent up until now.
It was kind of intimidating...

Kadu
Apologies. It's just that...

Kadu
I am scared to put my foot in my mouth in
front of Elmina, so I get tongue-tied...

Darna
Ah, I see! Since Elmina is the former
Seventh Apostle, you admire her as your

Darna
senior, is that right?

Kadu
Yes, it is embarrassing to say the least...

Darna
Good grief, you really are a chicken, aren't
you? Hahaha!

Kadu
Cluck cluck, ahahaha!

If there were to be an Erden Peace Prize,
it would surely go to Team True Gru Grim.

But somehow, every single spectator here
still looks unconvinced...

And through it all, the Eternal Race
continues!

A Look Under the Hood
Once again, in the garage just before the
race—

Finn
Clarice, you there?

Clarice
Oh, now it's Finn. Yes, I'm here.
What do you want?

Finn
What do I want? But...you called me here
to help with the final fine-tuning?

Clarice
Did I? Oh, It must have completely
slipped my mind.

Clarice
I'm driving, and you're the navigator, so
can you check on the map and the meters?

Finn
Sure thing!

Finn
By the way, do you know how these "cars" or
whatever they are called operate?

Clarice
You really don't know anything...

Finn
I don't think I've ever seen this kind
before.

Clarice
But you have seen a car, right? Well, these
are specifically made for this race.

Clarice
They are a little different from regular cars
in that they've got a different engine.

Finn
Engine?

Clarice
It takes two elements of incompatible
nature, gasoline and magic, and forcibly

Clarice
ignites them to create a blast of energy. That
energy pushes the car forward.

Clarice
I mean, that's the gist of it. Does that make
sense?

Finn
So that fantastic speed is the result of two
different things working together! Amazing!

Clarice
Well, incompatible elements are just that.
Incompatible.

Clarice
Forever clashing, never coming to a
mutual understanding... Just like people...

Finn
That's not true! We may have our differences,
but there's always a way to work together!

Finn
You can cooperate with anyone, you just
have to take that first step.

Clarice
I highly doubt that...

Finn
I know it might be naive, and I can
understand why you'd scoff at it.

Finn
But this is what I choose to believe in.

Clarice
...

Finn
Where are you going, Clarice?

Clarice
I'm going to get some motor oil. You stay
here and read the manual, or something.

Finn
All right, I'll wait here.

Clarice
This should be the place...

Norza
What are you doing?

Clarice
You're...Norza, right?

Norza
Looking for motor oil?
It's over there. Take it and go.

Norza
Though if you're looking for a fight outside
the race, I'm more than willing...

Norza
No, that's not really why you're here, is it?

Clarice
I heard the Red Dragon Knights talking
about you before.

Norza
Did you, now?

Clarice
Norza...or rather, Oz. There's something
I'd like to ask you.

Clarice
How did you manage to open up to the
knights... To your enemy?

Norza
And what will you do with my answer?

Clarice
I'm in the same position as you were.

Clarice
I just can't take that first step... I don't feel
I have the right.

Norza
"The right"? You think you're not worthy
or something?

Norza
Well that's just stupid. Nobody's
immaculate. We all have history.

Clarice
Maybe, but my history is worse than
others. I've hurt so many people...

Norza
We've all hurt people in the past. We're
all scum, if you peel back enough layers.

Norza
You're just afraid.
Afraid of conflict. Of clashing with others.

Clarice
I'm...afraid of conflict?
...Of others?

Norza
Just give it a go. You'll realize it's only
fear that's holding you back.

Clarice
(Fear of others is holding me back? That
can't be right...)

Clarice
(I guess if I want to find out, I'll just have
to give it a try...)

Clarice
(Yes, and I'll show them what I've got in
this race!)

Beni-Shoga
We are here in the middle of the circuit,
the very heart of the figure-8 track.

Beni-Shoga
This juncture doth denote the midpoint
of our racers' journey!

Beni-Shoga
First to the halfway mark is...

Beni-Shoga
—Team Maid of Knight!

Ludmilla
Ha, so it's them!

Beni-Shoga
But wait, another car approacheth with
fervent speed on their heels!

Solas
Brother! We are catching up to the leaders!

Ga'Luga
Yes, and it's Finn's team.

Solas
B-But still...

Cinderella
Do your best, Finn! I'm rooting for you, so
the least you can do is win for me!

Talia
Finn... You can do it!

Solas
They are all here for Finn...

Ga'Luga
As usual, his popularity teeters on
fanaticism...

Ga'Luga
Well, it may be usual, but these are special
circumstances! And I cannot stand it!

Ga'Luga
I am angry, Brother.
Tell me...

Mysha
Go, Finn, go!

Ga'Luga
...Why does even Mysha cheer for youuu!?

Finn
Huh? Mysha!?

Clarice
You really do make everyone jealous. Just
asking to be stabbed in the back someday...

Ga'Luga
Mysha is like family to me! You must know
I won't just let this go!

Solas
This is our wish—
to get our childhood friends back!

Ga'Luga
Today we are not brothers, but rivals.
I shall come at you with all my strength!

Finn
I don't really understand, but I'll take
you up on your challenge, Ga'Luga!

Clarice
I'd love to side with Ga'Luga, but then I
won't be able to win the race... How vexing.

Finn
Sorry, Clarice. Please don't make this any
more difficult.

Clarice
I wasn't going to. Now, please just focus on
the road and our opponents' positions!

Finn
On it! There's a corner coming up in three
seconds, and then you can hit the gas!

Clarice
All right, let's hit them head on!

Solas
Brother, the next corner is approaching.
Let's make this a quick win!

Ga'Luga
Right, we'll settle this right here on this
track!

Beni-Shoga
Oh my! Two cars are neck and neck! Doth
this herald a fiery final showdown?

Ludmilla
Will Ga'Luga break the stalemate and
take the lead?

Beni-Shoga
...Hmm? What is that sound that reacheth
mine ears?

Ludmilla
Huh...!?

Endless Rizette
Faster, faster, faster!!!
Faster than the wind!!!

Solas
Brother! Behind us!

Ga'Luga
What...!?

Ga'Luga & Solas
Aaaaaaggghhhh!!!

Beni-Shoga
A mysterious motorbike hath sent Team
Alpha into the air!

Ga'Luga
(Ngh, who was that speed hound?
Still...our efforts were not in vain!)

Ga'Luga
(Mysha was watching me! This has not
been...for...)

Ga'Luga
(Huh? Wait a minute...)

Ga'Luga
(That is not the Mysha I know!!!)

Ga'Luga
Ngh!

Solas
B-Brother! Shoot, what is going on...

Solas
Luna! You are not Luna!

Solas
No... She looks like Luna, but it is not Luna!

Solas
There she is!

Solas
No, that is not her either!

Solas
Did my childhood friend...not even come
to watch me race...?

Solas
Ngh!

Beni-Shoga
Alas, it is one calamity after another...

Ludmilla
Who'd have thought there could be not
one, not two, but three doppelgangers...

Ludmilla
By the way, who was that biker who sent
Team Alpha flying?

Beni-Shoga
Methinks this be the work of a street racer
intoxicated with Avatar powers.

Ludmilla
Ah yes, we've all been there...

Finn
Sounds like there's a bit of a scene going
on behind us.

Clarice
Ignore it. Just focus on what's ahead.

Finn
Right! I think the third checkpoint is
coming up soon.

Aria
I am Aria! The marshal of the third
checkpoint!

Aria
Uh, sorry for the brash display of my Avatar
just now. She's not even in the race...

Aria
All right, now that apologies are all finished,
it is my turn to shine!

Finn v Norza
Aria
Go for it, Fiiiinn!
Ha, first team done and done.

Callen
Curses! I am supposed to be manning the
third checkpoint and I missed Finn...

Aria
Um, excuse me? I am manning the third
checkpoint.

Callen
And who might you be?

Aria
I am Aria! The judge of all souls and the
Primordial of Death! Who might YOU be?

Callen
I am Callen! The 200-year-old genius
scholar!

Aria
You look like a little child to me...

Callen
Wh—The audacity! May you die a thousand
deaths! Thousand, I say!

Aria
But I'm the Primordial OF Death!

Adult Callen
Gah! I am so late!

Callen
Now who is this!?

Adult Callen
I am Callen! The buxom genius scholar!
And you are...me?

Callen
I suppose I am. So there is a world out there
where the accident never happened...

Adult Callen
Ah, so you are from the same world as that
Finn!

Adult Callen
Ha, it is like looking at my own child self.

Callen
Do NOT call me a child! Argh, why must
this always happen...

Adult Callen
Jealous, are we? I suppose I would be too,
seeing this voluptuous body!

Callen
Hearing it from myself just adds insult to
injury!

Aria
But why are you two even here? I am the
one who was called to man the checkpoint!

Adult Callen
They called for an "Old Soul Girl."
That is me, so here I am.

Callen
Clearly I am the only one that call could be
referring to!

Adult Callen
What are you talking about? I am an old
soul girl!

Callen
You can hardly call yourself a girl with a
body like that!

Aria
Well, I fit the bill, don't I? I've been doing
my job since the dawn of time!

Callen
N-No, it is completely different! There is
more than age to being an old soul...

Aria
Ugh, at this rate, we won't get anything
done here!

Adult Callen
Well, one person is more than enough to
man this checkpoint!

Callen
Indeed, and it is going to be me!
The only true old soul girl around here!

Darna
Now, now, everyone, there's no need to fight.
The 15th lesson of the True Gru Grim says—

Darna
"Get along, drink your milk, and enjoy the
taste of friendship!"

Callen
I would prefer not to be lectured by the
person who is the most out of character!

"Kind" Voice
Now, now, everyone.

Kadu
THERE. IS. NO. NEED. TO. FIGHT!!!

Aria
Eeeeeeeek!!!

Callen
A monster!!!

Adult Callen
Heeeeeeelp!!!

Darna
Ah, look, they all ran off together.

Kadu
Haha, it is so nice when everyone is getting
along.

Norza
Oh, you've pulled over? How complacent
of you. I'll just zip right past, then!

Darna
We've been overtaken... Shall we go back to
the race?

Kadu
Yes, Reverend Darna!

Norza
Here they come.

Chronos
Shall I take the wheel?

Norza
Heh, I doubt a clock could handle the
intricacy of this vehicle.

Chronos
...Clock? I doubt anyone but you would ever
dare to call me that.

Darna
Do I sense a touch of discord? We should all
do our best to embrace peace!

Norza
You're the last person I'd expect to
understand the concept of "peace."

Norza
But maybe things are different for you in
this world.

Darna
So you've realized this is not the world
we're used to?

Norza
Well, I do have quite the unique vantage
point.

Norza
So, how do you find this world?

Darna
Haha, it's beyond belief!

Darna
A miraculous place detached from the past,
the future, and even the present!

Darna
Which is precisely why I can be back to
"normal" here.

Norza
And this "normal" version of you bears me no
ill will? Even though I killed your father?

Darna
I'd be lying if I said there was no ill will...
But the True Gru Grim teaches—

Darna
"Remember: the present is a fabulous gift."

Darna
I no longer dwell on the past. That is the
mark of the "normal" me.

Norza
The present, huh...

Darna
Yes, here and now. Perhaps there is a
reason we were all brought to this world.

Norza
Heh, you may be right. And now that
we're here, as former kindred spirits—

Norza
Let us pledge here and now to fight a
fair fight!

Darna
Yes, a fair fight! That is exactly what the
True Gru Grim teaches!

Darna
Haha! How refreshing it is to have made
a new friend! Full speed ahead, Kadu!

Kadu
Full speed ahead!
...Huh? We have stopped.

Kadu
Did we run out of fuel? If so, let me just
add some magic—

Darna
Wait, Kadu! That's too much!

Kadu
Huh?

Beni-Shoga
Alas! Team True Gru Grim's vehicle
is ablaze!

Chronos
I paused the passage of time on their
tires. Pretty effective, is it not?

Norza
Chronos! You did that?

Darna
No... No. It can't be! The flame of friendship
is guttering out!

Darna
Why... Norza... Aaaaaaaah!!!

Beni-Shoga
Team True Gru Grim have gone out with
a bang. May they findeth eternal rest!

Ludmilla
Yes, it won't be easy to come back from that.
How unfortunate for them.

Norza
You shouldn't have done that, Chronos.

Chronos
All is fair in love and war.

Norza
(I feel like those guys' god might not have
been the only evil Primordial out there...)

Beni-Shoga
The dropout rate doth surge, and fierce
competition for first place doth prevail.

Beni-Shoga
Marshal Ludmilla, which team dost thou
deem will winneth?

Ludmilla
I think it's still too early to say. But it's
really giving me the itch!

Beni-Shoga
Thou art...itchy?

Ludmilla
Yes, I've got an itch to get a taste of the
race for myself!

Beni-Shoga
Ah, thou hath been bitten by the racing
bug!

Beni-Shoga
Well, for now, let us cast our gaze upon our
current leaders, Team Maid of Knight!

Clarice
How far until the last checkpoint, Finn?

Finn
The fourth checkpoint should be coming
up any minute now.

Norza
Don't think I'll let you win this thing without
a fight!

Finn
I know that bike!

Clarice
So you've finally managed to catch up to us,
Norza—no, Oz!

Finn
Oz...

Finn
Clarice! We have to go all out! We can't
lose... I can't lose!!!

Clarice
Lose? I mean, he is gaining on us, but we're
still—

Finn
No! I mean I can't lose my protagonist status!

Clarice
...Excuse me?

Finn
If I close my eyes... If I don't do something,
he is going steal my spotlight!

Norza
Hahaha! Someone's got scars from being
sidelined during the Gru Grim arc!

Finn
I won't deny it!

Clarice
So petty...

Finn
There are times in life when sacrifices need
to be made! Come on, Clarice!!!

Clarice
Right, we may have different motives,
but I can't afford to lose either.

Clarice
Here we go!!!

???
Hey, Finn!

Finn
I can see the fourth checkpoint! Theo's
there!

Theo
Good luck, Finn!

Finn
(Theo is such a beacon of purity. I can do
anything knowing he's got my back!)

Finn
Thank you, Th—

Theo
Oh, it's Norza!!! You can do it, Norza!
I believe in you!!! Go go gooooo!!!

Finn
Th-Theo... No... Not you too!
What else is he going to take from me...!?

Norza
What's wrong, Hero?
Ahahaha!

Finn
Norza! You won't get away with this!!!

Norza
This feeling... Pure ecstasy! Just like the
good old Pristine Corpseblade days—

Norza
Chronos! No meddling in this time!

Chronos
Very well, but do not forget our goal.

Norza
Heh, don't worry about that.

Finn
What could a human and a Primordial
possibly have in common to wish for?

Norza
There is only one thing we want—

Norza & Chronos
to buy that poor thing some normal clothes!

Rololitia
Huh? Why did the camera suddenly pan
to me...?

Rololitia
S-Surely you're not calling me "that
poor thing!"

Rololitia
It's not what you think! I only look this
way because I had to use all my magic!

Alice
Awww, don't you just look adorable!
I wish I had an outfit like that!♪

Tavun Rabbit
Ah yes, the fabled Magical Girl look!
It really suits you!

Rololitia
I mean...it is cute and all but... Hmph...

Rololitia
No fair. Why did you get away with no side
effects after casting such powerful magic?

Alice
Well, all I did was provide a dream.

Alice
Besides, if I'd gone any younger, I'd be a
literal baby now♪

Alice
Oh, and by the way, about your name—

Rololitia
My name...? Aaaaaah!!!
It says "Ro-loli-tia"!?

Rololitia
All right, that's it! Come on out, whoever
came up with this whole prank! Now!

Beni-Shoga
The crowd yearns for more as we venture
into the last leg of the race!

Beni-Shoga
I anticipate all shall be fastened to the
brink of their seats henceforth!

Beni-Shoga
Lo, we approacheth the grand twist!

Norza
Hm? The road's getting narrow all of a
sudden...

Norza
No—!

Finn
The edges of the road are crumbling! Clarice,
step on it!

Clarice
I am!
We'll get through this!

Norza
Damn you, race officials and your nasty
tricks...

Chronos
Is everything all right, Norza?

Norza
Of course it is! Who do you think I am?

Clarice
Hyaaaaaa!!!

Norza
Hmph!

Finn
...Did we make it?

Norza
Looks like it, but anyone behind us won't be
so lucky now.

Finn
So it's come down to just us. Head to head.

Beni-Shoga
Verily, we are on the home stretch now! It
hath dwindled to a duel betwixt two.

Enthusiastic Spectator
Oooooh, a duel!!!

Sweaty Palms Spectator
What a race!
Who's it going to be???

Clarice
A duel... No, I hear someone else.
Can't you hear that?

Finn
What? I can't hear anything...

Clarice
No, it's definitely something. It's coming
this way... Kuhuhu!♪

Finn
It's coming?

Norza
What is!?

Finn
Down this road? But not even a motorbike
could make it now!

Norza
I know that intense presence...
It's—

Ludmilla
Haaaaaaargh!!!

Beni-Shoga
Could it be... Was she not just... It cannot
be—

Beni-Shoga
MARSHAL LUDMILLA ON A BICYCLE???

Beni-Shoga
My word, when did she even get there!?

Ludmilla
Ahahaha! This is the perfect way to get
my spin workout in!

Finn
That's insane! How is she getting that
bike to go as fast as a racecar!?

Clarice
You're so amazing, Miss Ludmilla!

Norza
This makes absolutely no sense...

An NPC Somewhere
The Marshal is incredible!

Ride of the Valkyrie
Ludmilla
As of now, I am officially a competitor!

Finn
But why, Marshal Ludmilla!?

Ludmilla
Watching Clarice pour her heart into this
race, I couldn't resist participating.

Ludmilla
Before I knew it, I'd hopped on a bike and
here I am!

Clarice
Miss Ludmilla... You were...
You were watching me—!

Clarice
Ah, how wonderful! Kuhuhu!♪
Kuhuhuhuhuhuhuhu...

Finn
H-Hey, Clarice! Keep your hands on the
wheel! Eyes on the road, eyes on the road!

Clarice
My, are you annoying.

Clarice
I just got my mistress to notice me, and you
just can't let me bask in the euphoria!

Finn
Because we'll die if you do!?

Ludmilla
We're in a race, Clarice. You need to focus
on driving.

Clarice
Yes, Miss! Of course!

Finn
(I'm supposed to be her partner, but
she'll only listen to Marshal Ludmilla...)

Norza
Ha, she's driving a wedge between them
right from the get go.

Norza
You truly are a seasoned warrior.

Norza
But you're supposed to be commentating.
Can you even be here?

Finn
Right, isn't this against the rules?

Clarice
Miss Ludmilla IS the rules!

Luther
I AM THE RULES!

Beni-Shoga
...He hath at last revealed the depths of his
conviction.

Luther
She may be a latecomer, but so long as
she's run the same course, it is allowed.

Finn
She made it this far already!?

Norza
And on a bike no less... I know I'm one to
talk, but I don't think she's human anymore...

Norza
But what about your partner? I thought
this race had to be done in pairs?

Ludmilla
I have my partner right here!

Clarice
Miss Ludmilla has a partner!? And what
dank shadow did this partner crawl from?

Grudge Mori
Mori does not crawl, bip!

Grudge Mori
Mori is strong, bip!

Ludmilla
Awwww, isn't he just so cute!!!

Finn
Mori?
As in...those Moris?

Beni-Shoga
Live from the Eternal Race track! Marshal
Ludmilla hath made a surprise entrance...

Beni-Shoga
And we have received tidings that her
partner is one Sir Mori!

Beni-Shoga
Sir Mori hath emerged triumphant in the
Mascot King Tournament—

Beni-Shoga
Verily, he shines the most brilliant flame
amidst all the other mascots!

Beni-Shoga
We have Sir Vesh, one of Sir Mori's
opponents, here to provideth comment.

Beni-Shoga
So, Sir Vesh, pray tell your thoughts on Sir
Mori?

Vesh
I...am shooketh...
Yip yip...

Beni-Shoga
And there you have it. Right from the fox's
mouth, my good ladies and gentlemen.

Finn
(I've never seen Vesh afraid of anything
before!)

Grudge Mori
Mori's no regular Mori, bip!

Clarice
Hmph.

Clarice
Would you quit it with that stupid "bip"
nonsense?

Clarice
Just because you're kind of cute doesn't
mean you can get away with everything!

Grudge Mori
Pft, keep whining, you loser chamber pot
maid, bip.

Clarice
You filthy dust bunny! I'm going to sweep
you up and dump you in the trash!

Ludmilla
Please don't speak to my partner that way,
Clarice.

Clarice
M-Miss! Don't let that piece of cotton candy
fool you!

Ludmilla
Nobody's fooling anyone. Mori and I share
the same wish. He is my partner.

Clarice
The same wish?

Ludmilla
Yes, Mori and I have only one wish—

Ludmilla & Grudge Mori
To become stronger (bip)!

Finn
A Mori who wants to become strong, huh...

Grudge Mori
You think Mori's forgotten, bip? Never!

Grudge Mori
Mori remembers every single bastard who
kicked, trampled, and slayed his brethren!

Grudge Mori
Mori will get stronger, and then Mori will
take his revenge, bip!

Ludmilla
Ahaha, so much spite in such a little body!
Isn't he just the cutest!

Finn
(Um, I think he's being serious!)

Grudge Mori
And the first step to Mori's victory is to have
you all diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie!!! Bip!

Himori Bombers
Bip, bip, bip, biiiiiiiip!!!

Finn
Himoris!? Can you handle them, Clarice?

Clarice
Normally, yes, but there's too many of them!
And they are exploding on impact!

Norza
These blasted pests...
Come on, clock! Do something about this!

Chronos
I thought you wanted me to stay out of it
this time?

Norza
Would you take a look around!? The
circumstances have clearly changed!

Chronos
You truly are a Primordial slave driver.
Very well, I shall delay the explosions for you.

Ludmilla
Um, Mori? Is everything all right back
there? Don't play too violently.

Grudge Mori
It's fine, bip! Mori's just doing a little dance
to get everyone in the racing spirit, bip!

Ludmilla
Ahaha, that's great, Mori! Make sure you
get them all fired up!

Grudge Mori
Oh, Mori will, bip!

Finn
(Marshal Ludmilla is so focused on the road
ahead, she's completely oblivious to

Finn
the carnage that Mori is unleashing in their
wake...)

Clarice
Curse that Mori! How dare it ride in the
back with Miss Ludmilla!

Clarice
I'm so jealous I could punch something!

Finn
Explosion incoming, Clarice!

Clarice
Ngh!

Grudge Mori
Nooo!!! How could you blow up Mori's friends,
bip? And right in front of Mori, too, bip!!!

Clarice
That Mori is an absolute maniac!
Time to take out the trash...

Finn
Wait, stop! Clarice! Don't lean out the
window like that!

Clarice
I'm just getting rid of these stupid Himoris.

Finn
Not like that! You're going to fall right out
of the car!

Clarice
H-Hey! Watch where you put your hands!
My body belongs to Miss Ludmilla alone!

Clarice
Don't make me get rid of you too!

Finn
S-Sorry! I thought you were going to fall—
Clarice! Look ahead!

Finn
There's a Himori right in front of you!

Clarice
Oh da—Aaaaaagh!!!

Finn
...!
This is bad... That blast made the ground—

Finn
Aaaaaahhhh!!!

Light the Spark
Clarice
(Are we...falling...?)

Clarice
(Ah, the road has caved in! At this rate...)

Clarice
(No... It doesn't matter anymore...)

Clarice
(Why did I even enter this silly race?)

Clarice
(All this running in circles, thinking Miss
Ludmilla was in danger...)

Clarice
(What a fool I've been. There was no point
to any of this...)

Clarice
...

Clarice
(Is that...really true, though?)

Clarice
(Everything that's happened here—
did it really all mean nothing to me?)

Clarice
(Everyone's been fighting tooth and nail to
see their wish come true...)

Clarice
(Acknowledging each others as rivals...)

Clarice
(And I was right there among them.
I didn't even hesitate...)

Clarice
(Somewhere along the way, I let go of my
fear of being an "incompatible.")

Finn
I don't have a wish of my own, but I'd like
to help make yours come true.

Clarice
(He really is a good-natured fool... But he did
help me take that first step forward.)

Clarice
I want to win. I want to win for Miss
Ludmilla and for Finn.

Clarice
No... I want to win for myself!

Clarice
It's not over yet!
Wake up, Finn—

Clarice
Wake up, Master!

Finn
Ngh... Wh-Where am I?
Oh yeah, the road caved in and we fell...

Finn
Clarice, are you hurt?

Clarice
I'm fine. But more importantly—
we still need to win this race!

Finn
Win the race? But our car...

Clarice
It may be stuck, but it's still usable. What
I've got in mind could be a gamble, though.

Finn
You seem different, Clarice.

Clarice
Do I?

Finn
All right, let's do it! Let's take that gamble!

Clarice
Won't you regret it later?

Finn
Seeing that look on your face is enough for
me.

Clarice
You really are something...

Clarice
All right, if you're all set, let's go!
Master!

The Eternal Race
Beni-Shoga
The Eternal Race is nigh its zenith with
naught but seconds remaining!

Beni-Shoga
Behold! Team Guardians of Time hath
seized the lead!

Norza
Last stretch... I won't let anyone take this
win from me!

Norza
I will be the hero!

Chronos
Victory shall soon be ours, and then we will
get to see her beautiful smile.

Ludmilla
I don't think so!

Beni-Shoga
Would you look at that! Team Ludmilla and
Mori art in fervent pursuit!

Beni-Shoga
She is keeping an otherworldly pace!
Mine eyes can hardly keep up!

Ludmilla
Hahaha! Now that's what I call speed!

Grudge Mori
Victory will be ours, bip!

Beni-Shoga
Tis a contest betwixt two teams, ladies and
gentlemen. A thrilling finish is at hand!

Clarice
Correction... Victory will be ours!

Ludmilla
Huh? Where did that voice come from?

Kaaaa...BOOOOOOM!!!!

Clarice
From here!

Norza
What the—!?

Ludmilla
Ah, nice work! You blew up your car and
used the recoil to jump back up, right?

Norza
Damn it, I lost control of the bike!
Chronos—!

Chronos
Apologies, it is too late for me to do
anything.

Norza
Tch—No, we're going to fall—!

Norza
I-I see... So th-this is my...fate...

Finn
Quickly, let's take Norza's bike and catch up
to the Marshal!

Clarice
Can I leave navigation to you again?

Finn
Of course!

Ludmilla
We're going to win this, Mori!

Grudge Mori
This is where it all begins, bip! With this
victory Mori will become stronger—

Grudge Mori
And then Mori will crush those who dare
oppress his kind, bip!

Clarice
The race isn't over yet!

Ludmilla
You're still in the race? Excellent! I expect
nothing less from my knights!

Grudge Mori
Are these guys zombies or something, bip!?

Finn
Do you even know what a real zombie
looks like?

Grudge Mori
Shut up, shut up, shut up, bip!
JUST DIE ALREADY, BIP!!!

Finn
Here come the Himoris! Is his plan to
destroy the entire track!?

Clarice
Not on my watch!

Clarice
—Survivor's Fury!

Grudge Mori
Gwaaaaaaaah!!!
This isn't over yet, bip!!!

Grudge Mori
Mori might fall here, but others will rise
again and again and—

Ludmilla
Hmm? What's up, Mori?

Clarice
Don't worry about him, Miss. He said he had
to leave early and wished you good luck.

Ludmilla
He's left?

Ludmilla
Oh, maybe he didn't want to be in the
winner's limelight. He's so shy!

Finn
(Left...or disappeared...)

Clarice
Now, there's still the matter of victory,
Miss Ludmilla!

Ludmilla
Oh, is that a challenge, Clarice? Well well,
things just got interesting—

Ludmilla
I think it's time I took this seriously!

Finn
Were you just fooling around this entire
time!?

Clarice
That's my mistress! My heroine!

Ludmilla
I'm glad you see me as a worthy opponent,
Clarice.

Ludmilla
Which is why I definitely will not lose to
you now!

Clarice
Understood, Miss! I'll show you what I've
got!

Beni-Shoga
The finish line doth loom in sight!
Whom shall victory smile upon today?

Ludmilla
Me!!!

Clarice
No, me!!!

???
There! We made it!!!

Clarice & Ludmilla
...Huh???

Beni-Shoga
My word, Team Camelot!? What manner
of unexpected arrival is this?

Luther
Allow me to explain.

Beni-Shoga
You can explaineth this, Sir Luther!?

Luther
Team Camelot failed on the first turn and
plunged deep into the mountain.

Luther
Lancelot positioned herself ahead of their
car and drilled her way through the earth.

Luther
Meanwhile, Gawain pushed the car
forward.

Lancelot
Oh yes, it was so much fun throwing
myself against the earth over and over!

Gawain
We were on the verge of death...but it was
a good way to work up an appetite.

Finn
Chief Referee Luther! Who won?

Luther
Team Camelot won, of course.
They crossed the finish line first.

Clarice
This is absolutely unacceptable! Clearly
they drilled here in a straight line!

Luther
No, they followed the course of the circuit,
as per the rules.

Lancelot
Yes, the people at the checkpoints were even
kind enough to dig down to talk to us.

Clarice
That's just absurd...

Luther
Absurd, yes, but it is the truth.

Luther
Therefore I, Luther, Keeper of the Rules,
declare Team Camelot to be the winners!

Ludmilla
Hmph, I guess the Chief Referee gets the
final say...

Finn
We worked so hard...

Clarice
Such a waste of time and effort...

Luther
Now, Gawain and Lancelot! State your
wish!

Gawain
All we wish for—

Gawain & Lancelot
—is to continue rising to the challenge
at hand!

Lancelot
And this race was the challenge at hand.
It is all that matters to us.

Gawain
It is a great accomplishment. We shall
present this victory to our king.

Lancelot
Just wait 'til we get back, Your Majesty!

Beni-Shoga
After countless twists of fate, the winner
of the Eternal Race is Team Camelot!

Crazed Spectator
Woooooooooooooo!!!

Delighted Spectator
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!!!

Beni-Shoga
Ah, what a tumultuous competition it was!

Beni-Shoga
And thus, the Eternal Race has cometh to
a close!

Finn
You really don't mind not getting a wish
out of this?

Lancelot
All we wanted was to partake in the race.

Lancelot
It was a fantastic challenge, and now that
we have won, we don't want anything else.

Lancelot
But if I'm honest, if I could have one wish
granted...

Lancelot
I'd like to train with Marshal Ludmilla
sometime!

Ludmilla
That can certainly be arranged!

Ludmilla
And can you teach me how to use your
body as a drill?

Lancelot
It is pretty demanding, are you sure you
are up for it?

Ludmilla
Oh, I couldn't ask for more!

Lancelot
I knew it! I knew you and I were two peas
in a pod!

Gawain
Another Lancelot... Your Majesty, give me
strength...

Callen
Those Knights of the Round Table seem like
trouble...

Nagi
I must say I would not mind having more
blossoms akin to our Lady Ludmilla here...

Clarice
...

Finn
(Clarice still finds it hard to join in on
social interactions...)

Finn
(I'd better help bring her in—)

Clarice
Ally or no ally, if you even think of laying a
finger on my mistress, there will be no mercy.

Nagi
L-Lady Clarice!

Finn
Clarice...!? Are you all right?

Clarice
What's wrong, little frog? I suggest you
behave, or we'll be having frog's legs tonight.

Nagi
Oh my, what a bone-tingling smile∼

Ludmilla
Haha, looks like Clarice will be fine.

Finn
Looks like the race was worth it in the
end, if we get to see her like this.

Ludmilla
Thank you, Finn.
You made it possible.

Finn
—Look out!

Alfred
Marshal Ludmillaaaaaaaa!!!

Ludmilla
Alfred???

Grudge Mori
Did you really think that you could get
your happy ending so easily, bip?

Grudge Mori
That Mori can be trifled with?
This isn't over yet, bip!

Clarice
Just you try and harm my mistress... I'll
make sure your death is anything but swift.

Grudge Mori
Bip!?

Clarice
Hmm, no, death is a luxury... I can be quite
the beast tamer, you know?♪

Grudge Mori
Bip...bipbipbiiiiip!!!

Ludmilla
You were the one who attacked us just now,
Mori...? No, you wouldn't do that, right?

Clarice
(Miss Ludmilla is so pure... I can't let this
monster defile her heart!)

Grudge Mori
Mori is out for blood, bip! Mori will rain
down—

Clarice
Silence.

Grudge Mori
Bip...!?

Clarice
Miss Ludmilla believes there is good in you.
Just be thankful for that.

Clarice
Or else...

Grudge Mori
Okay, okay, bip! You can put away your
sword, bip!

Ludmilla
Mori?

Grudge Mori
Bip... Yes... Mori is a good Mori, bip...

Ludmilla
Right... Of course you are! I'm so glad you
and Clarice have made up!

Grudge Mori
As if Mori would ever make up with that
beast of a—

Clarice
Yes, we're the best of friends now, aren't we?

Grudge Mori
Biiip! The best of friends, bip!

Ludmilla
It's so good to see you getting along with
everyone, Clarice.

Ludmilla
I was worried you wouldn't get the chance
to talk with people.

Ludmilla
That's why I had someone else deliver this
outfit to you, and all...

Ludmilla
But I guess my fears were ungrounded,
eh?

Clarice
You... You were worried about me, Miss
Ludmilla? You worried about me so much...!

Clarice
Oh, Miss! I will serve you and only you for
the rest of my life!!!

Grudge Mori
So cringe...bip.

Clarice
Did I hear something?

Grudge Mori
N-Not a thing, bip!

Finn
(Looks like I don't need to worry about
Clarice anymore.)

Finn
(Heh, it's a little sad to think I'm not
needed...)

Alice
Finn!
There you are, I was looking for you!

Tavun Rabbit
We were looking everywhere, young man!

Rolotia
Did you enjoy this world, Finn?

Finn
I did! I really appreciate it, you guys.

Rolotia
Does that mean you remember what
you wished for?

Finn
"I want everyone—friend and foe alike—
to have fun in a peaceful world."

Finn
That's what I wished for in the last race.

Finn
So the Eternal Race called on you two to
grant this wish?

Alice
Yep♪ Because I have the power to bring
those bound by fate into a dream!

Rolotia
And I fiddled with the timelines to make
sure everyone was here.

Rolotia
The people you've met in the past, and
the people you have yet to meet.

Rolotia
As for Chronos... Well, let's just say I had
him turn a blind eye to this dream.

Finn
It was a lot to ask for. Thank you so much
for making my wish come true!

Alice
Just think of it as a reward for working so
hard in the real world♪

Rolotia
That's right. You usually have such a huge
burden to carry on your shoulders.

Rolotia
It's hard work, so you're allowed to have
a nice dream every now and then!

Finn
This was a pretty big reward!
Still, I'm really happy!

Alice
Hypnos said that while this world is a
dream, it's also not a dream.

Alice
Could be a glimpse of a parallel universe—
or a future yet to come—

Finn
I didn't realize Avatars could create this
sort of dreams...

Finn
Well, that fact alone is enough for me to
keep going!

Alice
Okey-dokey!♪

Rolotia
Yes, this is the path you must take!

Finn
And if I'm going to make this dream come
true, I'll need to go back to the real world—

Alice
I'd say you can keep dreaming a little
longer! At least for the length of a song♪

Clarice
...

See You Again
Finn
(So it was all just a dream... A dream that
could one day turn into reality.)

Finn
(Maybe a peaceful world really is
achievable...)

Clarice
I see you're still as popular with the
ladies as ever.

Finn
Clarice... I thought you were hanging
out with everyone? Is everything all right?

Clarice
Don't worry about me.
Besides, you're leaving soon, right?

Finn
Ah, you heard my conversation just now?

Clarice
I happened to be nearby.

Clarice
So, how was it? Was this world what you
expected?

Finn
Well, I had a lot of fun, and I'm happy.

Finn
I just want everyone to live in peace. I think
we got it here...in a sort of chaotic way.

Clarice
How very like you. By the way, I wanted
to ask you—

Clarice
In this world, the past and the future
are all tangled up.

Clarice
Does that mean you and I haven't actually
met yet in reality?

Finn
You know, I'm not entirely sure. I know
I've heard about you, though...

Clarice
I see. So you're the Finn I know, and not
that other Finn.

Clarice
Maybe that's for the best. If you did
know me, I'd probably be blushing.

Finn
Blushing? You?

Clarice
I mean, I do have a heart, you know!

Clarice
Anyway... Let me just say this one thing.

Clarice
If you hadn't reached out to me, I never
would have met everyone here today.

Clarice
Nor would I have made so many friends.
And so...

Clarice
Thank you... For finding me, and for not
discarding me... My Master!

Finn
Clarice...

Finn
I'm sure you saying that is a part of my
wish.

Finn
So, thank you too, Clarice!

Clarice
I won't forget the sound of your heart.

Clarice
I just know I'll recognize that sound, no
matter who or where I am.

Clarice
Next to Miss Ludmilla, you are the second
most important person in my life.

Clarice
I will always look out for you.

Finn
(The world is made up of the people who
live in it.)

Finn
(I'm going to protect this world's peace,
no matter what—)

Finn
Right, I'm off. Full speed ahead!

Finn
(I wish I didn't have to wake up just yet.)

Finn
(As soon as I open my eyes, I'll be faced
with reality.)

Finn
(This world will vanish forever, replaced
with the usual order...)

Finn
—I'll miss it.

You're wrong.

Though memories may fade, if there is
something you truly wish for...

Then it will forever remain in your soul.

So it'll be fine. I promise.

Finn
That voice...

Finn
(Who was it? It must be someone
important from my past or my future...)

Finn
I'll keep meeting new people. I'll keep
believing in a peaceful world...

Finn
I'll have faith in my wish!

Finn
And I'll keep walking this path I have
chosen.
