Dolby: The Sound Of High Definition II

I heard the people's lament...

And so, I answered their plea.

But, what I sought was a mistake.

Perhaps, fighting to help those voices asking for help was the wrong choice.

But, the me at that time chose to fight alongside everyone else.

And this is how it ended...

I couldn't save anything.

It was sorrowful and frustrating.

I hate my enemies!

Yet, they're still humans.

That's why I can forgive them.

But, I can't forgive myself!

Right... I can't be forgiven as I couldn't save a single person.

That why I wished for it.

A miracle for humans to discard their selfishness.

The salvation of humanity.

Be it ally or foe... I vowed to save all humans.

That's why I had to discard hatred and other emotions.

That degree of agony isn't important now.

What I wish for is the materialization of the souls of every human.

I won't accept a no for answer.

Now people will be saved.

Jeanne d'Arc.

You're nothing but a little girl.

Even if you try to behave like a proper Saint,

you can't hide the naivety of a girl your age.

Try as you can to leave your feelings behind,

but you can't hide them as long as my fellow here keeps on drawing out your emotions!

I... I...

How sad.

But everything's fine now, Jeanne.

Salvation is almost upon us.

Enough of this buffoonery!

Now it's time for Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, my Master, to enter the stage!

Let's start with humanity's salvation!

My wish was granted!

It was indeed granted!

This is humanity's victory!

Jeanne d'Arc, the Third Magic has been put into motion.

Third Magic?

The materialization of the soul...

Now, the Hanging Gardens will travel the world absorbing the magical energy of every soul.

This for the sake of freeing humanity of their physical bodies.

The instinct for survival will disappear.

Selfishness will fade away.

Humanity will ascend to beings with mental bodies.

Normal people will attain immortality without discarding emotions like love.

I have a question for you, Jeanne d'Arc.

What is this if not salvation?

Humanity will eventually attain that state.

This will only accelerate the process.

But that's...

Open your eyes, Jeanne.

You know it, don't you?

The world remains a cruel place.

Think about the repulsive sins I committed towards innocent children...

...after I went into a frenzy towards your Lord.

But, this will bring my atonement.

You can atone for your sins with this miracle.

I will atone...?

Exactly!

Let's offer the life of that homunculus to the world as sacrifice!

Wrong! That's wrong!

His life is my responsibility! I will not give him to the world!

She didn't broke down completely?

Jeanne d'Arc.

I don't wish to fight you.

You aren't my enemy now that I activated the Third Magic...

...after taking control of the Greater Grail.

Let's cooperate.

If you are by my side, we won't have to worry about more casualties.

The world we long for is waiting, Jeanne.

A paradise where nobody gets hurt, where filth doesn't exists, where people don't kill each other...

The world we thought belonged to dreams is at the reach of our hands!

A paradise where nobody gets hurt...

Definitely.

But...

In that world, he would...

Ruler!

Are you okay?

Sieg!

You...!

Ah... I wonder why I wish to be by his side.

Everything's fine, Ruler.

Sieg, your hand...

You used up all of your Command Spells.

I had to make full use of Siegfried's powers to defeat Karna.

Then, how come you're here?

I thought in one thing while fighting, while risking my life...

"I want to see her."

That's why I'm here.

I'm sorry.

As I thought, I shouldn't have brought you here.

I made you a victim in all of this.

I promised you freedom...

So, even if you ended up loathing me, I shouldn't have let you come.

Ruler?

Please, stay away from me.

Agree to this contract and we won't have to shed more blood.

Will you kill me if I deny it?

Yes. I won't pardon anyone preventing humanity's salvation.

There's no exception, not for you nor that homunculus.

Why do you hesitate, Jeanne!?

Without this salvation, people will keep on suffering due to their innate evilness!

Goodness doesn't exist in this world!

The same goes for you!

You're wrong.

Despite my short life, I've witnessed various things.

You can refer to the world's system as evil.

A system that a single person can't stand against to.

Good and evil depends on the side you're on, that's the truth.

But, most humans possess good will!

It might be sad, but making a mistake on that path isn't a sin!

I'm weak, and I'll make mistakes for sure.

Even still, I want to keep being myself for those who helped me when I needed it the most.

So, please don't say that goodness doesn't exist in this world!

Ruler?

Jeanne?

What's the matter?

It's not like you to cry like that!

You may be right, but this is all too sad.

Amakusa Shirou Tokisada, I can't accept your salvation.

I won't allow it!

Oh? Why is that?

Your intentions are based on a wrong assumption on humanity.

People fight against their inner evil,

it doesn't matter how many times they lose, but they keep fighting against it.

We are Servants.

It's us, the dead, who lend our power to the living,

and that's all we are supposed to do.

Humans fight against their wickedness, their sadness and their anger.

Your method doesn't bring salvation, but instead it crushes all of that.

That's something I can't accept!

Please wait, Jeanne....

Then I won't be able to atone for the sins I committed!

Those innocent children I killed will be lost forever!

What will be of me now?

If is atonement what you seek, do not ask for his salvation.

Gilles, you can't atone for those victims anymore.

The same goes for me.

I... I will never be forgiven...

Our Lord forgives everything.

But, those you killed will never forgive you.

Even if you hate yourself, you must protect the living as a Heroic Spirit.

So... that's the punishment given to me.
