CLAYMORE

Episode 09

From the moment I first met her,

she had very sad eyes.

I let out a scream...

...as I could not bear the sorrow and pain.

H-Hey!

What the?

What?

From the moment I first met Teresa,

she had the same sad eyes I did.

Give me...

Put inside my body...

...Teresa's flesh and blood!

Hey, wait up!

You don't have to run away so desperately!

C-Claymores...

You're from the town of Toriro, correct?

What's the situation of the town right now?

I-In the town, there's...

Clare.

Aren't these your comrades?

I see.

The report said there were five Yoma,

and you personally took care of four.

But one of them got away,

and a woman was almost killed.

What excuse do you have in mind for this?

It was headed in your direction.

I thought you guys would be able to save her if you didn't waste any time.

The organization told us there was a possibility a Voracious Eater was present...

...and that we should join up with two other members and take care of it together.

Those were the orders.

Unfortunately, they were just normal Yoma.

Don't you mean "fortunately"?

Were it a Voracious Eater, then you'd be the fallen one right now.

Were you trying to be a hero or something?

Not in particular.

I just got here early and proceeded to take action; that is all.

No matter.

We will be reporting your disobeying orders to our superiors.

Clare,

a Voracious Eater is one that's stronger than a normal Yoma, right?

Yeah.

You just told me it was going to be normal Yoma!

You can't be doing reckless things like this!

I suppose so.

I'll be careful next time.

Geez.

You are just as reckless as ever.

What did you plan on doing if it had been a Voracious Eater?

Actually, I think you wanted that to be the case, right?

I appreciate your aspirations, but you should forget about them.

You don't know how these Voracious Eaters are.

I fought one in the Great Cathedral.

That's been just a normal Yoma.

It just needed more food for its mimesis.

The term "Voracious Eater" is just an obfuscation,

the more appropriate term we use when talking to the public.

The true meaning denotes "Awakened Beings".

They are our own mistakes, after all;

it's better for the world to know of them as Yoma that have lived for too long.

If you were really up against a Voracious Eater... an Awakened Being...

...you'd be torn into pieces within seconds...

If that's all you have to say, then I'll be going back.

Priscilla...

You want to take Priscilla's head, right?

Give it up.

You won't be able to defeat her no matter what you do.

Even among Awakened Beings, Priscilla is among the strongest,

since she awakened after unleashing her potential, which would have surpassed Teresa's.

We basically don't take any actions against Awakened Beings.

We treat them the same as Yoma.

We leave them alone so long as we don't receive a request to hunt them.

If we received a request to dispatch Priscilla?

We will put the organization's entire force and Priscilla's powers on a balance...

...and let the elders make a decision.

Don't worry.

Our current number one and number two are quite powerful.

Every era has its heroes.

A pity that you aren't one of them, eh?

Very well then.

I'll add you to an expedition team that hunts Awakened Beings.

It's a request we received from a town west of here.

It seems like the result of a certain warrior losing it while dying.

Use this chance to measure the limits of your skills as much as you wish.

Teresa...

The rendezvous is in this town?

Yeah.

Clare's really going to fight a Voracious Eater this time...

What's the matter, Raki?

Ah, sorry!

Clare... should be fine...

This way.

You're the last one.

The others are here already.

What?

You brought a kid with you?

There's no way he's your kid,

so did you pick him up somewhere?

Don't tell me he's going to fight alongside us?

He'll be staying in the town.

We'll look for lodging now.

I see.

He must be your toy during your free time.

You're angry because I guessed right?

What a disgraceful woman.

That's quite an attitude for being the one person late.

We're quite irate since we couldn't move for one whole week.

Great, great.

I'm leaving things to you, Miria.

Wait...

In this situation...

Helen, Deneve.

Put away your swords.

Really now, last time you were ahead of everyone,

and this time you're late?

Quite a busy person, I see.

Anyway, now we're all here.

Our target is located south of here, in the mountains of Paburo.

We leave tomorrow morning.

I'd like to know your names and ranks first...

...and if you have any experience hunting Voracious Eaters.

My name is Miria.

I will be the leader of this team.

My number is Six.

This is my seventh time hunting Voracious Eaters.

I'm Helen,

my number is Twenty-Two.

I don't have any experience hunting Voracious Eaters.

My name is Deneve,

Number Fifteen.

I've had two experiences.

They had ranks?

And Clare's...
