00:00The Betelgeuse Unicorn
00:22Your Majesties, I deserve death.
00:24The princess escaped the castle and went hunting in the forest.
00:28I tried my best to stop her, but I couldn't.
00:30My daughter's behavior is disgraceful.
00:33I don't understand how a princess could be so obsessed with hunting.
00:37Well, remember, you were the one who taught her archery.
00:42I just wanted her to train so she can be strong and healthy.
00:45Who knew?
00:47Guards, go and bring the princess back now.
00:51Ugh, no!
00:58You shouldn't be in the deep forest alone, my lady.
01:01You are the one who saved me?
01:05Thank you, kind knight.
01:06I am Geoma, princess of this kingdom.
01:09A princess?
01:11I've never seen a princess as beautiful as you.
01:14I am Leo, a knight from the northeast of Betelgeuse.
01:18Your hand is so warm and tender.
01:21My heart suddenly flutters when I touch it.
01:23Could this be destiny?
01:28From the moment they met, Princess Geoma and Knight Leo fell in love.
01:34Their feelings grew with each passing day, and they decided to ask the king and queen
01:39for permission to be together forever.
01:46It's true that this knight did save our daughter's life, but he isn't of noble birth by any chance.
01:52How could he be worthy of her?
01:54But it seems like.
01:56Our daughter loves him deeply.
01:58I don't know what to do.
02:01Many princes from neighboring kingdoms have sought her hand, and she rejected them all.
02:07Now she wants to marry a mere knight.
02:11We need more time to think about this.
02:14Our daughter's very future can't be decided that easily.
02:21Your Majesty, a monster has suddenly appeared outside the capital.
02:24We don't know where it came from, but it's destroying every homes and even abducting
02:28villagers.
02:29What?
02:30Order the soldiers to kill it immediately.
02:34Oh no, the monster's here.
02:37The monster's here.
02:38Run, quickly!
02:39It's so fierce.
02:40I'm terrified.
02:41Oh no, let me go, let me go.
02:53Is there any way to defeat this hideous monster?
02:56Your Majesty, the monster's incredibly fierce, and its skin's impenetrable.
03:02Not a single arrow or spear can possibly pierce through it.
03:06What can we do?
03:07It's going to kill all the innocent people.
03:11Your Majesty, isn't there a knight in the palace who once able to kill even a giant
03:15tiger?
03:18Maybe we should ask him to deal with the monster.
03:21Yes, why didn't I think of that sooner?
03:26Killing the monster, that will be the sole condition for you to marry my daughter.
03:31You can choose.
03:32If you don't feel capable of defeating the monster, you can quietly withdraw.
03:39But of course, you'll never see my daughter again.
03:43I will fight the monster, Your Majesty.
03:45Even if I must jump into a sea of flames to marry the princess, I will do it.
03:50Good.
03:51Turns out you are indeed a brave knight.
03:54I'll give you three days.
03:57I obey, Your Majesty.
03:59Oh no, if you go, you will be killed.
04:04Kiyoma, if I can't marry you, it would be as if I were already dead.
04:09I promise I'll return safely.
04:12If you don't return, I don't know how I'll live.
04:16My heart forever belongs only to you.
04:29Wizard Holo, have you discovered anything?
04:32Yes, I've found the monster's weak spot.
04:36Its weak spot?
04:37What is it, Wizard?
04:39There's a small spot near its left ear.
04:41If you strike that area with your sword, the monster will die.
04:46Really?
04:47Then I have a chance to win this battle.
04:50But it won't be easy just like that.
04:54Getting close enough to strike the monster at that spot is dangerous.
04:58This is all I can help you with.
05:00May luck be with you.
05:02Thank you, Wizard.
05:03I'm certain I'll defeat the monster.
05:05Aura!
05:30You puny human.
05:33If you dare challenge me, I'll tear you to pieces.
05:38Then come at me!
05:43Monster, I've struck your only weak point.
05:47Let's see how long you can hold out now.
05:52Wretched human.
05:54You.
05:55You.
05:56A pillar of strength like me, defeated by a mere human.
06:05How shameful.
06:07I'll use my last bit of strength to take my revenge.
06:11The monster is dead.
06:28Knight Leo has killed it.
06:29From now on, our lives will be peaceful once again.
06:34The monster is defeated.
06:36Thank you, brave knight, for giving your life to save us.
06:41Leo, you promised you would return.
06:52How could you let the monster kill you?
06:55I can't believe this is true.
06:58Princess, please calm down.
07:01Sir Leo cannot come back.
07:04He has laid down his own life for the safety of the kingdom.
07:07You should be proud of him.
07:10Leo, I will never forget you.
07:17A few years later.
07:23Princess, please, let's go back.
07:26It's getting dark.
07:27If the king finds out, I'll be sentenced to death.
07:31Don't worry.
07:32I'll return before nightfall.
07:34Father won't know.
07:36Have you forgotten that you have a meeting with the prince of Matalou tonight?
07:41Oh, right.
07:41If I don't go, father will surely be angry.
07:45Let's return to the palace.
07:47I'm only meeting him because father and mother want me to.
07:51Honestly, I don't want to.
07:54It's been years now.
07:55You still haven't forgotten Knight Leo?
07:59I haven't been able to forget him.
08:01But you must move on and start a new life.
08:05You can't stay heartbroken forever.
08:09You're right.
08:10All right.
08:11Let's return and prepare for tonight's meeting.
08:16So you're going to meet the prince of Matalou?
08:20Yes, you have to move on.
08:22But I miss you so much.
08:25I, Leo, have been turned into this hideous unicorn by the monster.
08:30I can't see you again.
08:32I wish you happiness.
08:36Knight Leo, I am sorry I hadn't been able to foresee the monster's ability to turn people into animals.
08:45That's why, before it died, it managed to turn you into a unicorn.
08:51Wizard, don't blame yourself.
08:53I'm grateful you found the monster's weak point.
08:56Without it, I wouldn't have defeated it and brought peace to the people.
09:01Hang in there.
09:02I will find a way to help you.
09:04You're trying to find a way to turn me back into a human?
09:08Yes.
09:09I hope I'll succeed.
09:23Finally, I have found the solution.
09:27Leo, with this, I can help you return to your human form.
09:34What?
09:35If the princess loves me, even as an ugly unicorn, I can turn back into a human?
09:41Exactly.
09:42My magic has worked.
09:45Now it's time for you to get to the princess.
09:47All you need is for the princess to prove her love for you.
09:51Thank you, Wizard.
09:52The princess loves me deeply.
09:55I have no doubt about her feelings.
09:57Soon, I'll be human again.
10:00But you must not reveal the magic to anyone.
10:03If you do, the spell will lose its power.
10:06I understand.
10:07I won't tell anyone.
10:13Princess, since the day I met you, I've been enchanted by you.
10:18If you agree, my father's kingdom will be yours, along with my treasures and wealth.
10:25I don't need those things.
10:28If you don't love me yet, I can wait.
10:31Please give me time to win your heart.
10:34You'll see how sincere my feelings are.
10:39Princess, the king is gravely ill.
10:42He's coughing up blood.
10:46Oh no!
10:47Have they summoned the royal physician?
10:51Yes, they have.
10:53I must see how my father is.
10:56Your majesty, the king, the king.
11:00What about the king?
11:01Speak up.
11:02Father's condition is serious.
11:05Yes, the king has a rare illness.
11:09No ordinary medicine can cure him.
11:12So there is a special medicine that could, right?
11:16Yes, but...
11:19No buts.
11:21Just tell us where to find this special medicine.
11:23No matter the cost, we must get it.
11:27In the eastern part of Betelgeuse Forest, there is a giant mystical unicorn.
11:32If you can get its horn and brew it into a potion for the king, I believe he can be cured.
11:40The unicorn's horn from Betelgeuse Forest.
11:42Then I'll lead an army to capture it.
11:46But...
11:48What is it?
11:49Speak up.
11:51Princess,
11:52I have only heard of it, but never once have I saw it myself.
11:55I'm afraid that even you or the royal soldier won't be able to capture it.
12:01No matter the danger, I must capture it to save my father.
12:05Soldiers, gather the army.
12:11Thank you for coming with me to find the unicorn.
12:14You are my fiancée.
12:15It's my duty to protect you.
12:17You are my fiancée.
12:21It's my duty to help you.
12:22Your duty is mine.
12:24Princess, there it is!
12:31That unicorn is fast as lightning.
12:33We can't keep up.
12:35To capture it, we'll need strategy.
12:38Strength alone won't be enough.
12:41Maybe it's not an ordinary unicorn.
12:44What should we do, Princess?
12:45Let's split up.
12:46We'll surround it from all sides.
12:48The moment anyone spots it, close in from four directions.
12:51We can't let it escape.
12:54There it is!
12:55Let's go after it!
13:00Don't chase me.
13:01It's pointless.
13:07Wait, that voice?
13:09Could it be...
13:11Leo?
13:12Leo?
13:13Are you alive?
13:16But why are you in the form of a unicorn?
13:23Children, did you manage to find the unicorn?
13:27It ran too fast, Mother.
13:29No one could catch it.
13:31I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
13:33It's my fault.
13:34I couldn't capture the unicorn.
13:37There must be a way.
13:38Even if we have to tear down the entire forest, we must find it.
13:42But that's impossible.
13:45Why not?
13:47Don't you know the King's life is slipping away?
13:51I know, but...
13:53I... I just can't.
13:57What's wrong with my daughter?
13:59She never gives up this easily.
14:02Is something troubling the Princess?
14:09Princess, you summoned me?
14:13Yes, tell me.
14:15If we take the unicorn's horn, will it survive?
14:19No, Princess.
14:21Unlike others, his unicorn will die if its horn is removed.
14:26Are you sure?
14:27There's no other way to save my father.
14:31I'm afraid not.
14:32The unicorn's horn is the only cure.
14:36There's no other way?
14:38How can I choose between them?
14:40What do you mean, Princess?
14:42What choice do you have to make?
14:45Um, nothing.
14:46Don't bother.
14:50Hurry, physician.
14:52The King can't breathe.
14:55Oh, no.
14:56The King's condition has worsened.
14:58My father's condition has worsened.
15:00What do I do?
15:02Princess, if the unicorn's horn isn't brought back soon,
15:06the King won't survive.
15:09Daughter, you must act now.
15:12We're about to lose the King forever.
15:16M-Mother, I...
15:18I...
15:20Must I choose between them?
15:22Either to be with him, or to be with father?
15:26But he's now a unicorn.
15:29We could never be together.
15:33Besides, I've already agreed to marry the Princess.
15:36Besides, I've already agreed to marry the Prince of Mobula.
15:45Leo, I've come here alone.
15:47Please, come out.
15:49I know the unicorn is you.
15:51I've come to see you.
15:54No one followed me.
15:56Come out and meet me.
15:59It's the Princess.
16:00She's looking for me.
16:02Leo, are you sure the Princess still loves you?
16:06I trust her, love.
16:08She must have heard my voice when we met last time.
16:11That's why she's come today.
16:14Wizard, give me the charm.
16:16Today, I'll return to being human.
16:19Wait a little longer.
16:21Only when you hear the Princess truly calling out to you with all her heart
16:24should you reveal yourself.
16:27The unicorn hasn't shown up yet.
16:30Maybe I need to call for him more earnestly.
16:32Leo, it's me.
16:35Please, come out.
16:36I've come to find you.
16:38I miss you so much.
16:40Did you hear that?
16:41The Princess says she misses me.
16:44She still loves me.
16:45I knew it.
16:46Then go.
16:47See you, Princess.
16:49Today, you will surely turn back into a human.
16:53Leo, please come out.
16:55I want to see you.
16:58There's no one else.
16:59I've come alone.
17:00Don't worry.
17:01No one will harm you.
17:05Princess Giyoma, is that really you?
17:08There you are.
17:09Finally, I've found you.
17:13Giyoma, I've missed you so much.
17:16But in this hideous form, I could only watch you from afar.
17:21It was the monster that turned me into a unicorn.
17:25Leo, I've come here today to say goodbye.
17:28We can't continue this love anymore, when you're just a unicorn.
17:34Princess, you don't love me anymore.
17:37Why did you come here, then?
17:40It's because...
17:42Guards!
17:43Seize the unicorn!
17:49Princess, you've betrayed me!
17:51Leo, our love is over.
17:54There's nothing left between us.
17:57The princess and I are about to get married.
17:59She's told me everything about you.
18:02This is all my plan to capture you.
18:07So that's it?
18:08Giyoma, how could you betray me like this?
18:12You're just a unicorn now.
18:14We could never be together anyway.
18:17I need your horn to save my father.
18:20Giyoma, my love for you is over.
18:24Giyoma, my love for you has never changed.
18:28But you've changed.
18:31I'm sorry, Leo.
18:32But you can never become human again.
18:35That's not true.
18:37If you still love me, even in this form, I'll turn back into the Leo you once knew.
18:43No, that's impossible.
18:48I can't forgive this betrayal.
18:50Heartbroken by the princess, the unicorn used the last of its strength
18:55to charge and impale her with its horn, killing her.
18:59The unicorn then turned to stone, while the princess became a river
19:03that wound around the stone, endlessly caressing it in remorse.
