[bunniefuu]

What the hell?

Beanstalk!

Who are those assholes?

Hey! Don't jump the g*n

Hey, dipshits.

You mess with the peace

and you mess with me!

A bunch of uncouth clowns, I see.

Your lack of intelligence

is evident not only from

how you look, but how you act.

First a friggin' dragon

and now we've gotta deal

with a witch and a mad scientist?

This place really has it all.

Oh?

So you know about me?

Nope, not a damn thing.

But what else could you be?

Anybody wearing that getup

has to be a mad scientist.

Whatchu want?

Seems pretty obvious that you're

another one of the Empire's flunkies.

You here to get even with us

for your little rodent friend?

Rodent?

Ah, you must mean Ratcatcher.

I couldn't care less

about a nobody like him.

Your fort has already fallen.

I don't see any point

in us fighting each other here.

Why don't you cut the bullshit?

I'm gonna end you.

Ouch!

After seeing that g*ns won't work,

you charge in with brute force.

Then follow it up with

A surprise attack by a shape-shifter.

How painfully obvious.

Beautiful, wouldn't you say?

Even the most incompetent clods

can become useful soldiers

if you link their brains together.

Here he comes.

Open fire!

Stupid musclehead!

Nana!

Enough already! Stop!

Hey, finhead!

Let him have it, bro!

Take this!

What?

You hungry

for another knuckle sandwich?

They just keep coming!

This is why I hate smarmy eggheads!

They're all talk

'cuz they can't do sh*t!

Oh? Are you sure

you want to provoke me?

What now?

How could you do something

so mean, Daddy?

Why did you let me die?

Guys! Snap out of it!

Well?

Still think I'm all talk

and no action?

What are you doing?

Quit making them suffer.

I thought you liked

to keep things classy.

Wise men such as I have a duty to

educate and discipline the foolish.

Although

I suppose it was also

a wise man who once said

"There is no cure for stupidity."

Give up and walk away.

Then you can

Don't act like

you're the g*dd*mn boss around here!

You're just another a*s-kisser

for the Empire!

It's a temporary alliance.

I don't care for A.R.G.U.S.,

but I don't like the Empire, either.

What?

You're doing their dirty work

when you don't even like them?

Just moving from one scumbag

to another, huh?

I hate people like you

with a passion.

Whatever.

You know nothing about me!

What's the problem, honey?

You came all this way

to a new world, didn'tcha?

Puddin'?

Get your act together, Harley.

Go out there and paint the town red.

It'd be a huge buzzkill

if you died here.

Both for you and me.

Hey, did you hear what I said?

Back off. Do it right now!

You want to get

your head blown off or what?

Oh please, Mr. Flag.

You're only proving yourself

to be another one of these idiots.

If that was even remotely possible

then you would have triggered

all of our bombs

when we first got separated

a few months back.

Actually, one could argue that

now is even a better time to use it.

Am I wrong?

Look, my orders are

to catch you alive if possible.

You wanna test me?

Seriously?

You guys are still screwing around?

Very well, then.

We've wiped out your fortress.

An average human like you is helpless

at this point

even with a psychotic lady

and shark man on your side.

So feel free to rack

those brainless heads of yours.

It should prove entertaining,

if nothing else.

So, what happened?

Hey.

This has to be a joke.

Are you and Nanaue

really the only ones left?

They're all

They're all dead!

You've totally nailed

the lamenting sobs

but you've got the pose all wrong.

Eh?

A scene like this either calls for

a head in your lap

or a hug, obviously.

How?

Divine intervention or whatever.

The b*ll*ts stopped for some reason.

The impact did knock me out, though.

Plus

What happened?

You got shot.

I thought you were dead for sure.

Hey!

Did you rig your g*n or something?

Hell no.

I heard the news.

Talk about a miserable defeat.

Sorry. They outclassed all of us.

How does that work?

I thought having all those

dirty weapons

made you guys practically invincible.

No wisecracks to reply with, huh?

Oh no! This is a disaster!

What's with those elves?

How does he lead them like that?

Such great power!

Not even our knights

can use magic like that

What are you panicking for?

Y-Your Majesty!

Nobody here is panicking, I swear

There is no denying

that we lost our fort in this battle.

But what else did we lose?

Nothing but some lowly prisoners.

What is there to fuss about?

Well

Yes, you're absolutely right.

If our knights had simply

been in charge

of the fort from the very beginning

then this wouldn't have turned

into such a mess.

So the blame for the loss of our fort

falls entirely on whoever

let the prisoners out.

Right.

Hang them all.

Relying on those strange people

was a mistake.

Please wait!

What?

Executing them won't do anything

to improve our situation

It will keep our military in line.

And it will send an important message

once again to the populace

that we must protect the kingdom

with our own hands.

Y-Yes, exactly!

These people were going around

claiming that their victory

was all but assured!

That's right! And look

at how badly they were defeated!

It's clear they're nothing

but reckless and incompetent!

Where are they now?

They're being kept in the dungeon.

Execution?

That's just ridiculous.

It's true that we relied

on their powers a little too much.

But executing them

won't change anything.

Cecil.

My mother once told me something.

She said that

ending the w*r

is the duty of royalty.

But I can't shake the feeling

that my mother

willingly let her anger towards those

people cloud her judgment earlier.

I'm not sure

whether I can trust

my mother anymore.

What are your personal feelings

towards them?

Huh?

The otherworlders.

I cannot read Her Majesty's mind.

Nor can I fully understand

the concerns about her

that plague your heart.

However, it's clear to me you have

some attachment to those people.

Please tell me what you think.

Well, I

I don't know.

But perhaps I am driven

to want to believe in them.

I may have grown attached

to them myself.

What?

I have an idea.

Let's escape and go kick their asses.

It's our fault they're out there

sowing all sorts of chaos

in this world.

Whaddya mean "our"?

You and A.R.G.U.S. are to blame.

Keep it straight.

And just look

at how things panned out

after they sent us

to clean up your mess.

Talk about a huge miscast.

Arty?

Sorry, but I can't feed you.

Mommy's stuck in here right now.

Unfortunately, I can't use my powers.

How about we have Arthur

bust us out instead?

That puny little thing?

Well, it's a better option

than barnacle-butt over here.

He's in a funk.

Me lost

You should keep your voices down

if you're gonna plan a prison break.

Huh?

Get out.

Why?

Are they sending us

to the guillotines or what?

They will if you stick around here

much longer.

What do you mean?

You need to leave

and fight the Empire again

to prove you're worth keeping around.

The Queen intends

to have you all ex*cuted.

You have to convince her otherwise.

So what? This is your way

of saving our lives?

By forcing us

to fight those b*stards again?

Well, I'd like to see you try

and beat 'em first.

'Cuz I already know

you'll get your a*s handed to you.

- What the hell

- You all fought admirably.

Although you relied on unfair weapons

and unfair strategies

it doesn't change

the fact you risked your lives

for a kingdom

that you owe nothing to.

It would be wrong to execute you.

My fiancee lost her life to this w*r.

What about you?

Any family or loved ones?

Aren't there people

waiting for you to come home?

I never figured

you guys were such chickenshits.

Huh?

The Thinker pried into your heads,

didn't he?

That's his power.

And now you have cold feet

because you got spooked

by his mind games, right?

- As if!

- Please keep your voices down.

So, you're in on this too?

Cecil, we're running out of time.

I can't keep fooling

the soldiers forever.

What do you say?

Hey.

Do this.

Listen up.

All these shark teeth you've got?

Well

Ouch!

What are you doing?

I was trying to prove a point

by yanking a tooth out

and telling him that sharks

can regrow their teeth!

So he should regrow

his damn ba*ls, too!

Oh? That's a pretty clever line.

Let me try.

Did you know?

These teeth of yours

can grow back infinitely,

like a phoenix rising from the

That hurt.

Say what?

That hurt!

W-Wait! No!

Somebody help!

- I didn't mean it!

- Hey, keep it down!

Go right. Head for the side door

on the right.

Are you sure you want to do this?

I don't know, but

How's your little brother,

Knoll, doing?

Is he feeling all right now?

More or less.

But they hiked the prices up

on bread again.

When's the w*r going to end?

I don't know.

Well, the soldiers must be

stuffing their faces, right?

There are dedicated staff

who cater food to them, apparently.

They follow the soldiers

to their camp

so they can prepare

their meals at any time.

Their camp, huh?

At the military camp?

Yeah. Some poor kid

was mistaken for an enemy soldier

when he snuck in to grab food.

That's awful.

How can anyone expect the children

to understand the w*r?

Knoll

Go away!

Sorry

Get lost!

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry!

You're the one who told him

about the soldiers' camp, aren't you?

This is your fault.

That boy wouldn't have died

if you had just behaved properly

like a member

of the royal family should.

Don't visit the city

without permission ever again.

Just do exactly as I say.

Then we won't have any more mistakes.

Mistake

It was because I made a mistake

It's easy to just do what I'm told.

But I'm not sure

that's the right choice.

Oh yeah?

It feels wrong to act the same

as I did in the past.

So that's why.

Okay.

Was this really

the right thing to do?

Have I made another mistake?

Be that as it may

my duty remains to stay by your side

and support you.

Arty!

Hurry! Sounds like they've already

caught on to our escape.

This is my time to shine.

I've actually played

a coach driver once before.

And not just some extra

in the background

it was a challenging role

that required me

to smile directly at the heroine!

Are you guys listening?

So?

What's our plan

to beat those jerk-offs?

I just finished

formulating a strategy.

You've been thinking about it

this whole time?

You really are a nutjob.

The nutjobs are

the ones we're fighting.

Especially that scientist

who sabotaged my peace

I'm wasting his a*s first!

I took a peek into your mind.

You need to visit this gate regularly

to pick up a signal

for your bombs, right?

I do hope that your inferior

attempts to outthink me

will at least provide some amusement.
