Claymore (クレイモア)

CLAYMORE

Episode 15

__________________________

You can't get in contact with Number Forty-Seven, you say?

How long has it been?

It has been three months, the last contact being an Awakened Being hunting mission in Gonal.

That was the mission with Number Four, correct?

There is a possibility she is dead.

We have not found her corpse.

The corpse of Number Four, Ophelia, was found; she had also awakened.

What are the chances Number Forty-Seven slew her?

Considering the gap in their powers,

I'd say close to zero.

Normally, we'd say so.

However, I recall Number Forty-Seven was a special case where she took in that Teresa's flesh and blood.

By passing to her the flesh and blood of a half-human, half-Yoma with great potential,

you planned on preserving that powerful force.

However, didn't you conclude that your plan had been pure fantasy?

A conclusion from looking at her number.

But there are still many uncertainties concerning Number Forty-Seven.

Either way, we cannot let this matter escape us until we determine whether she's dead or alive.

If she's alive, we can definitely find where she is.

Ermita.

Yes.

Let "her" take on this mission,

and consider it top priority.

Other missions can wait after this.

Understood.

If he calls for Ermita,

that must mean it's "her" turn.

It's a time of desperation now.

What will you do, Number Forty-Seven, Clare?

title sign:

Excuse me.

I'm looking for my little brother.

Have you seen a young boy carrying a sword around here?

I'm not sure.

I haven't seen anyone like that.

I see.

Why don't you try going to the town of Hanel, which lies ahead of here?

People flow in and out all the time,

so there might be someone that saw him there.

Thank you.

I'll take a look.

I hope you find him, pal.

Hey, that was rude, wasn't it?

That was a woman!

You're stupid.

The guy's carrying such a huge sword,

plus his voice was pretty deep.

That's a guy.

Perhaps I should make my voice a bit deeper...

...by lengthening my vocal chords.

Excuse me, but I'm looking for my little brother.

Oh, you're looking for your little brother.

I lost him during our journey.

That must be very tough for you,

for this town is rather large.

It'll be better if you look for him tomorrow.

Yeah.

Raki...

Come in.

Here's your dinner.

Thank you.

You seem to cherish him a lot.

I'm talking about your little brother.

In this era that we live in,

normally we give up if our relatives go missing.

But for you to search for him town after town, he must be dear to you...

I find it surprising myself, too.

N-Nothing.

Well then, enjoy your stay.

Ahh, yes, yes.

I should mention this.

A group of Claymores is currently stationed in this town.

It appears that a very powerful Yoma inhabits the mountains of Zakol,

so as many as four Claymores are here.

As many as four?

Could it be an Awakened Being?

So yeah.

Be careful, okay?

Ah, thanks.

I never thought I'd actually encounter others here.

This medicine that suppresses my Yoki is both good and bad.

While others won't be able to detect me,

I also walked right into a town where other warriors are located.

But I can't be taken back to the organization right now.

Those, eh?

An Awakened Being hunting squad should at least have one warrior with single-digit status.

Which one is it?

Jeane, what's the matter?

No, nothing.

It's probably just me.

No doubt.

She's the one.

Ah, good morning.

You're up early.

I thought there would be more of a crowd in the morning market.

There might be people that have seen my little brother.

I see.

Ah, about the group of Claymores I mentioned yesterday,

it seems they left before dawn.

Now we can all rest in peace.

They say they're on our side,

but they're still half-Yoma.

If they're going after an Awakened Being,

it'll take them at least one day no matter how fast they are.

I'm grateful I won't have to face them at all.

Hmm, a boy carrying a sword?

I don't know of any.

Thank you.

Nothing at all, eh?

Raki, where in the world are you?

Brother, look!

It's Teresa and Clare!

These two are called Teresa and Clare.

Teresa and Clare...

It's the name of one of the two beautiful, pure twin goddesses of love.

It's a name that was probably given by parents who wished their children be brought up that way.

And...

...this one's Clare...

...and this one's Teresa.

Hey, didn't I teach you that?

N-No!

And you were so cocky, you went and explained it to a complete stranger.

I was not being cocky!

That was because he asked me stubbornly which one was Clare!

Yeah, right.

I'm not lying!

Bullshit.

It's true!

Excuse me, little girl.

Could you tell me a bit more about that stranger?

Well, I don't know him.
