Clevatess (クレバテス-魔獣の王と赤子と屍の勇者)

Did you know?

Flowers and trees grow back faster if you cut them.

Hey, wait!

Klen said that if I run out of dark ichor, I'll die.

If he chops off my head, I'll definitely lose enough blood to die.

Oh no. I can't die here.

No...

I'm going to die!

Who's there? Someone tall?

They're coming straight this way.

What are they after? Me?

Or this rat?

Who's there?

Oh, if it isn't Professor Matthew Barnes...

Excuse me, Andrew Hwyp.

May I ask you some questions?

CLEVATESS

Episode 6: Whispering Voice

Dark beasts!

Take this seriously, brats.

If I can't crush you when you're serious,

I won't be able to draw him out.

It's started, huh, Zavthier?

Yes.

Sarasa.

You must get somewhere safe to rest, so that you can maintain the fog.

As you wish, Zavthier.

I hope it's someplace with good food.

By your will.

Is that a rat?

Yes, it is.

What's it doing in a tree?

You didn't come to talk about that, did you?

Right now, the headmaster's put a powerful spell over all of Solsein.

A normal human without a crest or crystal shouldn't even be able to stand.

So the headmaster's voice I heard was magic?

You're stepping on one, sir.

A flower.

A flower?

There's a flower?

You just can't see it.

Moss flowers.

My crest enables me to talk to plants.

The moss told me your weight and how you walk.

You take powerful steps, without hesitation.

You're likely a soldier.

And an exceptionally tough one.

Amazing.

So this is the power of a student with a Crest?

Sorry to interrupt you.

I'm just looking for a student that disappeared.

As you say, I'm a former soldier.

But I don't have a sword, and I'm not here to fight.

If you don't know anything about the missing student,

then I'll just turn around and go.

Hey, did he just say he was leaving?

That's Rhode Royes, right?

Somebody's finally come who could save me!

Notice me! I'm right here!

The student you're looking for is right here!

I don't know anything about them.

I see.

I'll ask someone else.

Oh no!

If I miss this chance, I'll definitely be killed!

No! Don't go!

I have to tell him somehow!

Wait, Professor.

I felt this presence earlier...

What is it?

I guess I can't just let you go after all.

You can't?

Who said so?

Sometimes I hear it...

The voice of the Crest...

And the Crest says...

I'm to kill the two

who got in the way at Hiden.

Is this Vordin's avatar? The one Klen was talking about?

The times I hear the voice,

I usually get incredibly strong.

Zeross Repeiro.

Great Shears:

Pruning!

Rhode!

I'm surprised you dodged that, Professor.

But pruning is a skill that helps trees grow up to become beautiful.

It uses the trees it cuts as fuel to enhance growth.

Stump Growth: Great Tree Cultivation!

Buelo Zekis!

You can become food for my trees, Professor.

It will make the flowers bloom.

Rhode Royes was defeated?

No way! He was a Regalia-wielder!

Is he helpless without his weapon?

In the end, he's just a fake.

Drel spoke of it too...

The whispering voice...

You don't know what the real things are.

You didn't live through their era.

Clevatess is the same.

The era I ended.

When dark beasts and humans were much closer... and fought.

The age of the real hero.

This era must be ended.

The legend must be restored.

Stopped time must be forced to move once more.

For the true hero to awaken,

the scattered memories of Toah must be brought together.

The true hero?

I've said too much.

Kill him.

And her next.

Understood.

I'm glad you're in dark beast form.

I don't have to worry about disposing of the corpse.

Thanks to the headmaster, I was able to meet the whispering voice.

If I obey the voice, I can become stronger.

It's just the voice?

He can't see it?

I want to get stronger,

and fill the world with flowers.

What's he talking about?

Oh, my skull shattered.

I guess I don't need to do another attack.

Isn't that power ready yet?

I haven't taken enough damage?

Not yet?

It's over, huh?

I'll head over to the Dark Tower...

It's not over!

What's that? A Crest?

She's bathed in it.

So she has a fragment as well?

My broken left arm shattered even more.

But...

That means I've still got power left in my right arm!

This punch is for you! Vordin!

He disappeared?

What are you aiming at?

Damn it! I shattered my own body for that attack!

If I miss this...

Zeros Re Peiro, Giant Scissors.

I'm barely still alive.

Any more damage and I'm dead.

Pruning.

What is this?

A Regalia.

A fragment of General Drel's Dark Dragon.

The one I broke?

I couldn't bring my Frost Flower.

But I'm not stupid enough to come to enemy territory empty-handed.

Even a fragment of a Regalia is strong, huh?

How's the evacuation going?

Nobody on the second floor either.

An evacuation order was issued.

And the headmaster's voice cannot be disobeyed.

Do we really have to check every individual house?

We have to check so we can be certain.

That's our job as Group A.

I think we're wasting our time.

Shut up!

I don't want to go any further!

Damn it all!

That's not a student up there waiting for us!

It's not even human!

It's a Lord of Dark Beasts! A Lord of Dark Beasts!
