02x03 - Guinevere

[bunniefuu]

Sixteen years after the Holy w*r ended,

the young Percival learned he is

one of the Four Knights of the Apocalypse
who will save Britannia.

After overcoming great obstacles,
Percival and his comrades

met Lancelot, Tristan and Gawain
of the same Four Knights of the Apocalypse

and began a perilous journey,
risking their lives.

Their destination is
the Kingdom of Camelot,

where his father, Ironside,
who k*lled his grandfather,

as well as King Arthur, the man
who wants to destroy the world, await.

GUINEVERE

Yay! I can't wait.

Today. Right now.

I want to go
on an adventure with everyone.

King Meliodas said

our new clothes and equipment
won't be ready until tomorrow.

So be patient.

But I was really surprised.

The king of a human kingdom is
actually a demon.

Meliodas is a good guy.

I heard he fought on the side
of humans during the Holy w*r.

That's true, but it's still shocking.

So if I wasn't a human, would you hate me?

Did you forget what I said?

No matter what, you are still you.

- I love you, Anne.
- Hey.

And Nasiens and Donny too.

That doesn't mean you should hug me.

Looks like your grandfather
didn't teach you the most important thing.

What?

SLAP

Don't you realize people will question
the dignity of the Percival Platoon?

But if you want,

you can sometimes give me a little hug.

Thanks, Anne.

You know you'll be our leader from now on.

I know.

Liones is quite a beautiful kingdom.

Of course, my home is also beautiful.

My house by the lakeside
is surrounded by a forest.

Eating Maw's special pudding,

while gazing at the full moon
reflected on the lake is exquisite.

Why don't we take in the beautiful view,

and create poems of passion together?

Shall we, Miss Isolde?

Miss Isolde?

Miss Isolde. Miss Isolde!

Prince Tristan, how are you feeling?

It seems turning into a demon
takes more of a toll than I thought.

Every part of my body
is screaming in pain.

Prince Tristan...

Please don't act so recklessly
for someone like me.

What would you do
if you couldn't turn back?

I was so incredibly worried
that I thought my heart would burst.

So cute.

Sorry.

When I saw that beast defeating you,

I couldn't hold myself back anymore.

The Tristan Platoon is
there to protect Your Highness.

I implore you to never
do something like that again.

Thank you for those caring words,
but I'm going to have to reject them.

What?

We are comrades.

There is no hierarchy
amongst comrades, right?

What a naive prince.

He doesn't understand
what his position entails at all.

You know it too don't you, Isolde?

The story of a group of heroes
of different races, backgrounds,

personalities, and beliefs
who overcame all obstacles in their path.

The Seven Deadly Sins.

I want to be just like them,

with you all.

As you wish.

Prince Tristan cares so much for me
as one of his comrades.

If I can serve him
for the rest of my life,

I could wish for nothing more.

Even if he never realizes
what's in my heart, I don't mind.

Oh, this is perfect.

Stay still.

Here.

This is?

I knew you'd look good with a ribbon.

You look really cute.

- But I can't be the only one to receive...
- Yeah, you're right.

I'll give one to Chion and Jade too.

That clueless prince.

How foolish. I'm going back for a nap.

The two of you can talk about love,

take each other's virginity,
or whatever you want to do.

Miss Gawain?

What exactly am I doing?

I still don't know who she is
or where she's staying.

Lance.

I knew it.
You came to see me. I'm so happy.

You knew I was coming, didn't you?

That's right.

So, who are you really?

Didn't I already tell you?
I'm your girlfriend.

Don't act so familiar with me.

You're embarrassed. How cute.

I just can't get comfortable on sofas.

I arrived in Liones yesterday
with my maid.

She's out right now.

Oh, but don't think about doing
naughty things just because we're alone.

Like I would.

I mean, why did you need to come back to--

Thanks for waiting.

Ta-da. How do I look?
You can tell me I look cute.

Don't humans save frilly clothes
like that for important occasions?

That's because today is an important day.

Whatever. Just hurry
and sit down so we can talk.

My dream has finally come true.

I've been waiting for the day
I could finally touch the real you.

Where did you come from?

Cameliard.

It's a small kingdom not far
from the old Camelot.

You correctly guessed
we were looking for Gawain.

I'll tell you one thing.

You'll see the person
you are looking for soon.

Then your magic is a type
of search magic that reads minds.

If you go to the place
I'll tell you about now.

However, you even named the location.
That's a different story.

Your magic is the power to see the future.

It's the rarest of the nine types
of magic, the Oracle-type, isn't it?

And yours is the Hero-type, with at least
four of the nine types of magic combined.

How did she know?

Kaleidoscope.

I have the power to see
the future in my dreams.

It's as clear as if
they were happening in real life.

Unlike the vague and blurry Vision
of Liones's previous king, King Bartra,

I can clearly see

who is doing what, where, and when,

and even hear their conversations.

Seriously? I've never heard
of a power like that.

But I can't see broad visions of the fate
of the world like the Vision.

It's limited to things that happen
to me personally or around me.

Since I was three, I've randomly seen

everything that will happen
until my death at 71.

My father tried to hide my power
as best as he could.

But the rumors still got out.

That is also why I came to this kingdom.

Do you believe what I just told you?

It's not about
whether I believe you or not.

You gave information
no one could have known.

Wait.

You said you can only see
what happens around you.

So how did you know about Gawain?

You also knew my father's favorite saying.

I just said things
the future you told me about.

Didn't I tell you?
I will become your girlfriend.

Girlfriend or whatever,

I don't really get it.

I mean, why me?

Did you think I'd say,

"Yes, gladly," when you say
something like that out of the blue?

The future I see is absolute.
I've never been wrong.

That's quite some confidence you have.

This is only the second time
we've met, you know.

In my reality-like dreams,

I've met you hundreds and thousands
of times already.

The 16-year-old Lancelot
I met for the first time.

The 18-year-old Lancelot
who snuck into the tower to see me.

The 19-year-old Lancelot
who kissed me for the first time.

The 23-year-old Lancelot making a name
for himself as a knight serving the king.

And...

And then

the Lancelot

who said his final farewell

to me...

Even the futures I never wanted to see.
I've seen them all.

I used to think
I didn't need this kind of power.

I felt I would go crazy having
all these dreams about horrible events.

Yeah, I guess you would.

But your existence supported me.

I have always looked forward
to meeting you, Lancelot.

And finally, we meet.

So, now I feel like I can bear
any hardships that will come.

That will come? Does--

I feel so much better
after all that crying.

Oh, right. Tomorrow, I'll--

I already know. You'll go on a journey
to search for Camelot, right?

So you already foresaw that.

You said today is your last day in Liones?

Will you come see me again someday?

We'll meet again, anyway, right?

See you again, Lancelot.

Someday, for sure. Right, Guinevere?

Yes!

I should tell Meliodas
about Guinevere's power.

When moon, distant thunder,
and rain bless the Kingdom...

The omen

isn't over yet?

Please pardon my rudeness in asking.

But are you Princess Guinevere
of the Cameliard Kingdom?

I am a knight of a certain kingdom
who would like--

No need to beat around the bush.

You're one of Camelot's four evils,
Sir Ironside the Red Knight.

Be frank
and say you are here to kidnap me.

Wonderful.

So this is the Kaleidoscope.

Then why didn't you call for help
or run away?

I'd love to,

but I would need to pay a bigger price
if I went against fate.

That's very intriguing.

I have a really bad feeling.

Don't tell me the hope
that will be stolen is...

Lancelot.

Guinevere, is that you?

What's happening? Are you all right?

I'm fine, so listen to me.

- Don't blame yourself. This is my fate.
- Gates to the Eternal Kingdom.

- Open before me.
- But I'm not afraid.

- Guide me and grant me passage.
- Because I believe in you.

Find me.

And someday, for sure.

Aren't you in a good mood?

Despite sending your son off tomorrow

on a life-threatening journey
that will decide the fate of the world.

I can't help but pity Prince Tristan.

You're here, Gawain.

I wanted to have a chat with...

Well, this is a surprise.

I'm the one who is surprised!
What's with these clothes?

Bring me
the person who designed this right now!

Sorry. That person isn't here anymore.

But those clothes will
shrink and grow with your size.

And they're extraordinary clothes,

magically enhanced
to withstand your magical powers.

I see. Frankly, the design
makes me question the designer's sanity.

But their functionality is excellent.

Do you have any more questions?

I do.

Do you really believe
I will provide you my assistance?

Do you think I will fight King Arthur
as a Knight of Prophecy?

Surely you've done your research?

You must know that I am the daughter
of Arthur's adopted brother.

Listen here.

With regards to me becoming your ally,

I have no reason to do so
nor will I gain anything from it.

But you still came.

Something must have drawn you here.

Very well. I shall act
as a Knight of Prophecy in the meantime.

However, I make no guarantees.

I may betray you all at any time.

Well, well, well.

What a shrewd man.

Arthur's attacks will only get stronger
from now on.

However, you must find a way to Camelot.
No matter what it takes.

First, everyone will head to Wolnack.

From there, the four platoons shall move
in separate directions.

We're gonna split up
after we've finally got together?

Because it'll be more efficient that way.

Percival Platoon and Gawain will team up

and search the Fairy King's Forest
in northern Britannia.

The Tristan Platoon will head south
towards the former Camelot.

Lancelot, I'll have you move alone

to search the east towards Benwick.

Your Majesty.

Can I switch places with another platoon?

- His Majesty's order is absolute.
- Chion.

Do you hate it that much?

It's just that I can't go back yet.

You promised to find
and bring back Jericho, right?

You did find her.

So haven't you fulfilled
half of your promise?

To call it half...

Go back home and let them know at least.

You have to show your mother and father
you're doing all right every now and then.

Seriously?

In return, I'll search for Dubs.

- Dubs?
- Dubs?

I know a cook named Dabbucchi.

Okay.

Dubs is a master craftsman, right?

That's right.

Dubs, the master craftsman
of the Giant Clan.

He is Britannia's greatest craftsman
who has forged numerous magic items,

such as the Coffin of Eternal Darkness
that sealed away the Demon Clan

and the Sacred Treasures
of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Lancelot has been searching for Dubs
for a long time

to ask him to craft
a weapon tailored for him.

Can't he just go buy one?

No other weapon is strong enough.

They can't withstand
Lancelot's enormous magical power.

So that's why his weapons always break
whenever he uses his power.

Listen carefully.

You will meet even stronger enemies
and face even more difficult challenges.

But allies who fought with
the Seven Deadly Sins

in the Holy w*r are also scattered
throughout the land.

If they are facing trouble,
please lend them a hand.

And they will surely return the favor.

Do whatever it takes
to fulfill your mission.

Understood!

No matter what it takes,
I will complete my mission.

I swear on the name of the Percival Sword.

What a mighty name.

So lame.

He gave the sword his own name.

Wouldn't Sword of Eternal Darkness be
a cooler name?

Come to think of it,
isn't that dragon hilt

a fragment
from the Coffin of Eternal Darkness?

Correct. That's the magical item
that sealed away the demons long ago.

And the king is a demon.

Give that hilt back right now!

The king might get sealed away
if someone steals it!

There's too much at stake!

Keep it, Percival.

You're the one who got it back.

I'll gladly place my life in your hands.

I should be the one protecting you,
but I've placed a heavy burden

on your shoulders.

It's only right that I should take on
that much of a risk.

Don't push yourself too hard, Tristan.

I don't think I can find Camelot
without pushing myself.

You always have to have the last word.

Tristan, I shall pray for your safety.

Be sure to come back to us.

I promise I will come back, Mama.

Good grief.

A mother and a father, huh?

I'm jealous.

Sorry to keep you all waiting, everyone.

It's quite embarrassing.

Mother and Father
are always treating me like a child.

Don't you mean "Mama" and "Papa"?

You! Why do you always feel the need
to butt in with unnecessary comments?

Take care, Chion.

Be a good support to Prince Tristan.

He probably doesn't need my support.

I envy you.

You can go on an adventure
with the one you admire

as comrades of the same generation.

All right.

Let's go!

We can't see them anymore.

To think I'd send my own son off
on such a dangerous mission.

I'm a failure as a father.

He'll hate me even more now.

Haven't you noticed?

He admires you more than anyone else.

This is the first time I'm hearing that.

No matter what happens,
everything will be all right.

After all, Tristan is the son of Meliodas,
one of the heroic Seven Deadly Sins.

And that Meliodas is protecting Liones.

I hope you're right.

This isn't like you. Did something happen?

Lancelot told me

that the princess of Cameliard
who came to this kingdom

went missing yesterday.

It seems that princess

has the power of foresight
far greater than King Bartra's.

If she truly has that power

and if she was taken to Camelot,

then a terrible storm is on the horizon.

We've arrived, Princess Guinevere.

Welcome to Camelot.
