00:05I finally got the 10,000. Elias will be so pleased.
00:18Elias, the 10,000th level 8 essence. Today's the day you take human form.
00:27You have no idea how dangerous it was-
00:38We can form the bond now, can't we?
00:40Thank you, sister.
00:45Hilda.
00:47Thanks to 10 years of your devotion, we couldn't have bonded without you.
00:58Supreme essence!
01:01How dare you keep this from me all along!
01:04No! The Academy's shield relies on it!
01:22Everyone, quickly take cover!
01:25Run!
01:26Why would you do this?
01:28Why? Because you are stupid and tedious.
01:31Oh dear sister, premiere in the Academy and still, no one wants you.
01:37Don't waste your time on her. Even looking at her makes me sick. Compared to you, she's nothing.
01:42Pathetic. See? Elias has always chosen me, no matter how much you did for him.
01:47Farewell, sister!
01:58Aliens, Hilda, I curse you both. If I get another chance, I will not let this happen.
02:14Everyone is still here. Good. That's good. That's good.
02:18As tradition dictates, I now proclaim the decennial bonding ceremony of Beast Word Academy underway.
02:29I have returned, to the day it all started.
02:33Fire Dragon, he boasts a pure bloodline unseen in a decade.
02:39Elaine Tidesong, as our premier apprentice, you are the only one fit to master him.
02:47Though he is not easily tame.
02:50The Fire Dragon just refused her?
02:51He is of noble blood, proud beyond measure. But there's no one better than Elaine.
02:55Hilda! Step away, it's dangerous!
03:03Professor, I know I'm nothing compared to my sister. It's just...
03:06I've never seen such a magnificent creature. And he seems to... like me more?
03:11Professor Talon, since their hearts are already entwined, let them have each other.
03:16What? She's a mere initiate!
03:17I will not bond with the Fire Dragon. In fact, my choice lies...
03:24Feathered serpent!
03:25A lowly half-breed?
03:38Professor Talon, since the Fire Dragon refused to serve as my mount, I shall take this little serpent.
03:45Elaine, you're the premier! Only the Fire Dragon is worthy of you!
03:49Such lowly beast isn't even worthy of being the Fire Dragon's lackey!
03:53Professor, my decision stands.
03:55Then it's done. The Fire Dragon goes to Hilda.
03:59In three months, the Beastware trials will judge your progress with the utmost rigour.
04:04Hilda, how could you do that? The Fire Dragon was meant for Elaine!
04:07Right! How can you steal from your own sister?
04:10I didn't. He chose me first.
04:17Brilliant. With that Fire Dragon, she'll be our new premier by morning.
04:20Hm. The newest initiate, and yet she scoops the finest prize in the hall.
04:25A treacherous beast was never a good choice.
04:28In my past life, Alias was just as arrogant.
04:32He refused to forge the bond with me.
04:37To feed his growth, I risked death on every hunt.
04:42Hunting man-eaters.
04:44Just to secure the beast essence.
04:49He never once spared a glass for my wounds.
04:53He only had eyes for what he needed.
05:04When I was away, Hilda would come to him.
05:06I knew.
05:08I told myself she was just trying to help.
05:11But I never expected them to be this cruel.
05:18In this life, I won't let them betray me. Not again.
05:30No!
05:36Elaine?
05:39Elaine?
05:41Professor?
05:47A familiar shares its master's magic. You and Alias. You would have made an unstoppable pairing.
05:53But as you saw, Professor, he has no desire to bond with me.
05:57A beast's will can be guided. I shall speak with Hilda again and have Elidus return to-
06:02Professor. I seek no mighty instrument of power, but a true companion.
06:10He is not so bad, after all.
06:15Fine. But remember, the beastward trials is in three months. Academy's judgement is absolute.
06:21Any beast that falls short of the standard will be stripped from its master.
06:39Oh, Elaine. If you truly wanted Elias, why didn't you just ask?
06:44What?
06:44No.
06:45Weren't you begging him? Hoping the Professor hand Elias back to you?
06:50Ridiculous.
06:52My dearest sister. I'd love to return him, but...
06:59He refuses to leave with you. Drop the act, Hilda. I have no interest in your precious mount. Save that
07:06energy for the trials.
07:07Speaking of the trials. I have to apologize in advance. When Elelius makes me the new premiere, where will that
07:15leave you?
07:22This time, let me see how Hilda gets this bloodsucker to take human form without me. Only if you can
07:28afford him.
07:32Of course I can! But can your little worm even survive three months?
07:38No.
07:39No.
07:48No.
07:49No.
07:50No.
07:51No.
07:52No.
07:53No.
07:54No.
07:55No.
07:56No.
07:56No.
07:57No.
07:57No.
07:58No.
07:58No.
07:58No.
07:59So you would defend your master, Elelius? You just detest me?
08:03Elaine! The Fire Dragon is Academy's most precious beast in a decade. You will be part of your
08:08If you hurt him so my serpent deserves to die. It's just a lowly half-breed. There are hundreds like
08:13it in the Beast pavilion
08:14No wonder last time he died at your hands in just a year
08:22Hilda
08:23Where is your familiar? It was too frail. It couldn't survive. I tried everything I could to save him
08:30What did you try what potions what healing spells? I?
08:34You're our apprentice of Beast Word Academy, and you don't even know basic of beast care. How dare you question
08:41her
08:52Alasius you never answered my summons yet here you are for Hilda. Have you forgotten who your master is? I
08:58share no bond with you
09:01You it's my fault. It's her. I refuse to acknowledge
09:07Halt at the premier I speak for the Dean himself. I order you to stay Hilda
09:13As you wish Elaine for your incompetence and the death of your familiar I sentence you to the outer valley
09:19to clear out the trolls
09:22I can't can't do that. Please please do not panic Hilda. I will come with you
09:26My flames will be your shield. I gathered essence all on my own a thousand times all for you and
09:32you never came not once
09:37As long as he chooses me and stands by my side, I will treat him right in return a
09:43Fallen premier and a mutt from the gutter perfect match
09:46I hope you can last five minutes in the trials keep yourself in your mountain check Hilda next time it
09:51won't be just a splash of water

18:01familiars differ in innate ability what determines a passing grade is your bond
18:08the pillar reflects the shared manner and bond between master and beast

18:46D for a distinct fail
19:00C for a close miss
19:04C for a close miss

19:34A for Alessa and her ally
19:37well done
19:47have you seen Elaine she's in seclusion maybe she's just scared don't be absurd look
20:05how did he get this big in three months
20:19no suspense left
20:21Hilda is going to be the new premier
20:23how can you say that
20:25Elaine hasn't even shown up yet
20:27just stating facts
20:28how could Elaine's mud snake compare to a fire dragon
20:31it's not over yet
20:37oh
20:37oh
20:38oh
20:46To be continued...
21:04By the elements, it's an S for a supreme beast.
21:11The strongest familiar in a decade.
21:13She is way, way stronger than her sister now.
21:16It's the fire dragon, nothing to do with her.
21:18Elaine could have had the dragon. She has only herself to blame.
21:21You're all taking Hildy's side now? Have you forgotten who actually helped?
21:23Last favors don't win battles. Powerless means useless.
21:28Professor Talon, is there anyone left to take the trial?
21:32Only Elaine and her familiar. We will wait.
21:36My sister is too proud to bear losing her position as premier.
21:40She's probably too ashamed to come at all.
21:42Elaine never runs away. There must be a reason.
21:45She realized the gap between us. That's the reason.
21:55A'Lelius is stronger than them all.
21:57He possesses the power to protect and to lead.
22:05Once I am premier, A'Lius' full power will be unleashed.
22:09The whole kingdom of Byrne will respect Beast World Academy.
22:28Elaine is here.
22:31But where is her snake?
22:39Nyxen, come forth.
22:56Nyxen, come forth.
23:03He hasn't grown an inch.
23:06Can they even make the pillar flicker?
23:09Elaine is finished.
23:14Elaine-Ane, you knew you'd be a joke.
23:18Three months and you're still holding that worm.
23:22It's pathetic.
23:24Elaine, what is this?
23:26Have you been training him at all?
23:27I have.
23:28Trust me, Professor.
23:29Professor, this is pointless.
23:31Declare their failure now.
23:32It'll save everyone's time.
23:34Elaine, perhaps he'll be a bit bigger by next year.
23:37Every bonded apprentice must attend.
23:39Rules are rules, Professor.
23:41Dear sister,
23:42I know it's hard to accept.
23:43But don't worry.
23:44A'Lius and I will protect you.
23:46No need.
23:50You're under the delusion that you're the strongest one here.
23:53Let me correct you.
23:54Let me correct you.
24:25That worm, it can take human form?
24:30Unbelievable.
24:30It takes a premier at least ten years
24:32to guide a familiar towards a human.
24:34You've performed a miracle, Elaine.
24:37Impossible.
24:39A'Larius is the strongest.
24:40A'Lius!
24:53Don't hurt them!
24:58No!
25:00You must have cheated!
25:03Elaine,
25:04the pillar will never acknowledge you!
25:25The pillar is no longer able to contain the scale of your bond,
25:29nor the mana you share.
25:32Nyxen is the strongest femulation in the history of this academy.
25:37He is beyond measure!
25:43I made the right choice
25:45in choosing Nyxen.
25:53That's not him!
25:54That's not the same creature from the bonding ceremony!
25:57It is him.
25:58Always has been.
25:59Don't forget, you were the one who said we were a perfect match.
26:02He was dying.
26:04No, Elaine, it was you!
26:06You knew he was powerful all along!
26:09You stole him on purpose!
26:12Stop fooling yourself.
26:14Nyxen was mortally wounded.
26:16Even if you had taken him,
26:18with the meager mana you have,
26:20you could never keep him alive.
26:22I belong
26:24only to you.
26:25I said if, Nyxen.
26:28I...
26:28I just didn't expect him to take human form!
26:31You kept this secret
26:33just for humiliating me in front of everyone!
26:36I am not like you, Hilda.
26:38I wouldn't covet what isn't mine.
26:43This is only the first of many defeats.
26:46Get used to it.
26:50Trying to speak?
26:53But you don't even have a human voice yet.
27:03Trials are competitive by nature.
27:06But not at the expense of your bond as sisters.
27:11Perhaps this is a chance to rebuild your sisterhood.
27:15After all, you are both exceptional.
27:17What?
27:18That's not fair!
27:19Elaine and Nyxen are miles ahead of them!
27:21Professor,
27:23perhaps you'll reconsider.
27:24once you know
27:26what Hilda has been hiding from you.
27:33Elaine, explain yourself.
27:35She's talking nonsense!
27:37I'm not hiding anything!
27:39Professor,
27:41check Hilda's mana level.
27:43Please.
27:48Level 2?
27:50No progress in 3 months!
27:52If she's level 2,
27:54then where did all that Mina come from?
27:56Was the pillar broken?
28:00Help me raise Alias, Elaine.
28:02I really can't do this without you.
28:04I refuse to let her leech off of me this time.
28:08So who else was left to bleed?
28:11Professor,
28:11Alias' growth is strange.
28:13Perhaps
28:13the resource logs might tell us why.
28:19Hilda,
28:20in 3 months,
28:21you have claimed 14 extra essence rations
28:23as a premier candidate.
28:25That is triple the allowed limit.
28:27I did it for the Academy!
28:29Alias is so strong,
28:31I just wanted him to reach
28:32his full potential faster!
28:33And yet you remain at level 2.
28:35Not a single drop of that essence
28:37was used on yourself.
28:38But Elaine has reached
28:40level 7!
28:43Hilda,
28:44you are disqualified from the trials.
28:47The excess resources
28:48will be deducted
28:49from your future allowance.
28:51The position of premier apprentice
28:53remains with Elaine Tideswap.
29:03Elaine,
29:05you stay.
29:14I'm pleased with the trial results today.
29:16But that's not the reason
29:18I asked you here.
29:21Disturbances are increasing
29:22at the borders.
29:23Dark forces are seeping
29:24into the wilds.
29:26Tainted beasts lose their sanity,
29:28turning into man-eaters.
29:29A nine-tailed Vorkhraf
29:31has been spotted here.
29:32We must bring it back
29:33before it's fully corrupted.
29:34Professor Willow
29:35will come with you.
29:36This is why I urged you
29:37to choose the Fire Drakon.
29:39We need powerful Beastmasters
29:41for what's coming.
29:42I have reasons, Professor.
29:44And I hope you'll be careful
29:45with him as well.
29:46Why?
29:51I don't have substantial proof yet.
29:53Then you should guide Hilda.
29:55The infiltration is accelerating
29:57and we...
29:57Professor,
29:58the nine-tailed Volpel
29:59owns the priority now.
30:01I will bring it back.
30:02Your parents died
30:03in a similar riot back then.
30:04I've always felt
30:05it all happened too sudden
30:06and unnatural.
30:10The infiltration
30:12is accelerating.
30:13It all happened too sudden
30:15and unnatural.
30:21I never understood
30:22what Alias had done.
30:23We had no bond.
30:24He could have simply killed me
30:26and taken Hilga.
30:27Why destroy the entire Academy?
30:28It wasn't the freedom he wanted.
30:31What is he really after?
30:53Elaine, don't you think Professor Talon
30:55is being far too stringy?
30:57I fell for this nine-tailed spirit fox
30:59the second I laid eyes on it
31:00yet he refused to hold it for me.
31:02Now I have to come all this way myself.
31:05This nine-tailed spirit fox
31:06bears an exceptionally rare bloodline.
31:08It's lethally dangerous in the wild
31:09and must be strictly contained.
31:11Do this as a favour to the Academy
31:13if you would.
31:16My, my, Elaine.
31:17Your little slither is quite clingy,
31:20isn't he?
31:30Nyxen.
31:31What are you doing here?
31:33Hilda came to me today.
31:36I sent her away.
31:40Sent of a fox.
31:41We just secured Premier's seat
31:43and you're already planning
31:43to find a familiar.
31:44It was a mission from...
31:46It's fine.
31:48Once I eat the fox,
31:49your bond is still only mine.
32:16You hit me for that fur ball?
32:19Professor Talon entrusted
32:21this Valkyrie to me.
32:22If you lay a finger on it,
32:23I will never forgive you.
32:31Elaine!
32:32What brings you here?
32:34Where is Hilda?
32:38She took Alias to the Valley.
32:40For training, I guess.
32:41She's been acting weird
32:43since the trials.
32:44The Valley.
32:44It's strictly off limits.
32:46What is she doing there?
32:52I told you.
32:53That's a way from me.
32:55I'm not going anywhere.
32:59Don't stare at me like that.
33:01The trial was not my fault.
33:06Hunt for essence?
33:08Go outside?
33:09Are you insane?
33:10I'm a level two.
33:11I'd be eaten alive.
33:12Are you trying to kill me?
33:16Human form?
33:17With what?
33:18We have no quata left.
33:19I can't pull essence
33:19out of thin air.
33:20If you're looking for someone
33:21to blame,
33:22blame Elaine.
33:23Her serpent is already speaking
33:24with a human voice.
33:25And you,
33:26all you do is scribble
33:27with your claws.
33:27I'm sick of...
33:28In my past life,
33:29he wouldn't give me
33:30a single look.
33:31Now, look at him.
33:32Writing for Hilda
33:33stroke by stroke.
33:36It was a long way
33:38to find you, Hilda.
33:41Elaine?
33:43Why are you here?
