"Yuuzen-san, I found something of interest in the Phantom Mist." |
Yuuzen |
"Good eye. What did ya find?" |
Miyako |
"I saw something like a lightning bolt in the centre of the swirling Phantom Mist. I thought I had seen something wrong, but just now I saw the same light." |
Miyako |
"Look, there it is." |
Yuuzen |
"......" |
Yuuzen |
"The Mist has acquired the power of darkness. Either the celestial sphere has taken over the Mist, or the Mist was created by the celestial sphere..." |
Miyako |
"Perhaps it is ever-darkness?" |
Yuuzen |
"Tch, Islington's intuition is often right." |
Yuuzen |
"Miyako, change of plan. Yer the only one who can defend the Mist Train. I'll try to protect the Metro fleet as best I can." |
Miyako |
"Even if you say so, I can't perform sorceries as well as Yuuzen-san, can I?" |
Yuuzen |
"It doesn't matter if ya can't do what I did. Ya just have to put up a barrier so that it can plunge into that Mist. I'm sure ya can do that too." |
Miyako |
"How much power do I need to use?" |
Yuuzen |
"Full power." |
Miyako |
"Full power..." |
Yuuzen |
"Don't worry, I'll follow up your art afterwards. Be prepared for both the magic of the Mist and the physical collision." |
Yuuzen |
"This is not just Phantom Mist anymore. The lightning seen in the centre is the power of the celestial sphere. Some kind of strong magic is being activated. Tell the other kids to hurry up. Change of plan. Emergency." |
Miyako |
"Roger that!" |
Miyako |
"Versailles, change of plan. The Mist Train is entering the Phantom Mist with the minimum necessary barriers. All hands brace for imminent impact. Repeat. All hands brace for imminent impact." |
*BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP* |
Versailles |
"Change of plan! The Mist Train's barriers are weakened to bare minimum! All hands brace for imminent impact." |
Yakutsk |
"Something happened up there. Vivienne, Yoshino, you're up to the task!" |
Yoshino |
"Ryoukai, brace for derailment. Shashou and Paddington, come with Yoshino." |
Vivienne |
"Putra, signaled the fleet?" |
Putra |
"Sent. The ships behind have already started to turn. I have added 'Emergency' just in case." |
Miyako |
"Look out ahead! Prepare for the storm! The Phantom Mist is turning into a huge waterspout, sucking up seawater!" |
Vivienne |
"It's true. If that thing hits us directly, we'll be in serious trouble." |
Putra |
"...Oh no." |
Putra |
"The waterspout is heading towards the convoy, Yuuzen, help the navy ships! They haven't evacuated in time!" |
Yuuzen |
"I got that. Just be quiet and brace for the impact. I can't do anything if ya make a fuss." |
Yuuzen |
"Miyako, ya can't go in here. You've already casted the art, haven't ya?" |
Miyako |
"I'm here to help you." |
Yuuzen |
"I'm enough on my own. Ya help the others." |
Miyako |
"No, Yuuzen-san, one person is not enough. You need one more person to observe the magic and to be on the lookout for enemy attacks." |
Yuuzen |
"...Tch, do whatever ya like." |
Miyako |
"Yes, I'll do as I please." |
Just as we were about to reach our island destination, a mixture of darkness and Phantom Mist formed into a huge tornado and struck the M. Flamarine Navy that had come to escort the Mist Train. |
Yuuzen used very powerful sorceries to protect the fleets which had failed to escape from the threat of the tornado. |
However... she was unable to protect all the ships. |
The tornado's area of influence from the darkness and Phantom Mist overpowered Yuuzen's sorcery. |
Some of the military vessels were smashed to pieces and turned to sea debris as they took time to turn and take evasive actions after receiving Putra's signal. |
Yakutsk |
"They couldn't be protected..." |
Putra |
"Three ships are sunk. We can't save them." |
Vivienne |
"No way, they came to escort us..." |
Putra |
"We have to check on Yuuzen too. Yuuzen, Miyako, get back on the train!" |
Mary |
"Yuuzen, what are you doing? Get back on the train and bring Miyako back." |
Mary |
"No response. I don't think she was swallowed up by that tornado earlier..." |
Queensway |
"I'll go check up there!" |
Mary |
"Negative. The train is already inside the Mist, you know that? If we go outside now, we don't know what's out there." |
Queensway |
But Miss Yuuzen and Miss Miyako are at..." |
Mary |
"If you can go and do something about, Yuuzen would've been able to handle it by herself already; If Yuuzen can't, you're just one more casualty." |
Queensway |
"......" |
Mary |
"We're switching. Once ashore, the battle will be fierce. You are the vanguard, so be prepared now." |
Yoshino |
"Queensway. Don't worry, Yuuzen and Miyako are sorceresses. They are the best among us at dealing with danger." |
Queensway |
"...I agree. I'm sure those two will be fine." |
Queensway |
"Miss Yakutsk, get ready to disembark. When the train starts to slow down, you and I will be in position to secure the perimeter." |
Yakutsk |
"Roger. Mary, be ready to cover both the front and the back of the train." |
Paddington |
"Approaching landing zone! Beginning slow down! We're moving faster than expected, so we'll be decelerating rapidly. Everyone please hold on to the nearest handrail or strap!" |
Yakutsk |
"Right, here we go, Queensway!" |
Queensway |
"Yes!" |
Mary |
"It's almost night at the landing site. Be careful not to get too far ahead!" |
Mary |
"...This is not just night. It's a vortex of ever-darkness created by the forces of Mist and darkness." |
