"title sign:" "sign:" "Clare's Awakening" "It's happened again..." "What are we supposed to do?" "Why is such a thing..." "Father Vincent." "We have no choice but to call for their help." "Call?" "You do not mean" "Yes." "B-But the law of the city says..." "This is not the situation to worry about the law." "If we don't do this, it's all over for us." "Rabona?" "The city they call the "holy city"?" "But I recall that Rabona..." "Yes." "The holy city of Rabona does not allow the entry of unnatural beings." "That obviously applies to us, whom they call Claymores." "Then there's no window for us to intervene." "That issue is not a concern." "This time, we've been requested to infiltrate the city without being detected, quickly find the Yoma, and dispatch it." "That is the extent of your job this time." "A covert operation, basically?" "If you swallow those pills, they'll temporarily suppress your powers and revert the color of your eyes back to normal human colors." "However, you'll lose the ability to sense Yoma." "In other words, after you've sneaked into the city, you'll have no other choice but to find the Yoma by walking about the city." "Additionally, if you have that kid pretend to be your brother, you'll be able to enter the city with even less suspicion." "Welcome." "A room for one, I presume?" "Ah, no." "For two, please." "We are siblings traveling together." "We will be in your care for some while." "Wow, this room is pretty nice." "It is a place they call the holy city, after all." "They will have facilities appropriate for such a city." "Are you tired, Clare?" "Do not worry." "It's the effects of the pills." "I think it's better if you rest a bit." "It's all right." "We have little time to spare." "We'll be going out now." "Oh, going out?" "Yes, we shall be touring the city a little." "Okay, have a safe trip." "What is it?" "Nothing, just noticing that you can change so quickly." "I'm kind of surprised." "I have received training like this." "I have been trained in various things, from the conduct of an aristocratic girl, to the seductive smile of a prostitute." "Pr-Prostitute?" "!" "Shall I demonstrate for you?" "N-No, it's okay, it's okay." "The baptismal hall lies ahead." "The general public is not permitted to enter." "I understand." "I come here today to be baptized." "Do you have proof of that?" "Yes." "Okay, please enter." "Damn, that's nasty!" "Did these belong to some great man in the past?" "I do not sense any presence of Yoma at all no matter where I go." "You over there." "If you're here to be baptized, please come to me." "Are you Father Vincent?" "That is correct." "It is my honor to meet you." "In the name of our Lord, I baptize you." "What is your holy name?" "My holy name is Rimuto." "I have journeyed from the land of Sutafu." "Then, you're..." "Please keep your voice down, Father." "Then, come to the Great Cathedral's highest bell tower tonight." "There is a curfew being enforced at night." "Will you be able to come?" "As you wish, Father." "Antiques?" "Yes, we fill our stomachs by selling antiques our father collected during his life." "This is now the last item he left behind." "Hmm, and how much is it priced at?" "It's ten million beras." "Ten mil" "That's not going to sell, I tell 'ya." "Yes, I think so, too." "But my brother and I have decided that we want to sell it at the price our father set." "Well, do your best." "Is your brother okay?" "It seems that the food you cooked was so good, he ate too much." "I gave you guys a big serving, too." "Ah, and there's a curfew being enforced in this city, so you shouldn't go out." "Yes, I am aware of it." "I see." "Well, enjoy your night." "Forgive me." "You had to eat the amount of two people." "Ah, it's okay." "Your body can't eat too much anyway." "Besides, I'm tagging along with you as a cook, so taking care of food is my job to begin with although the meaning here is pretty different..." "C-Clare!" "Be..." "Be careful!" "It'll be okay." "Don't worry." "I have come after receiving orders from Elder Rimuto of our organization situated in the land of Sutafu." "There was a job request from this city of Rabona." "Correct?" "The first to die was Father Van." "After that, my fellow priests have fallen victim one after another." "All the deaths happened inside this Great Cathedral." "For us servants of God to die like this without being able to do anything is that tolerable?" "Yoma treat people equally." "Whether you're a clergyman or an atheist..." "Whether you're a man or a woman..." "None of this matters to them." "But..." "As long as there are guts inside your body, it's all the same to Yoma." "Please." "Help us." "I will give as much money as desired." "I don't need the money." "Once the job is completed, there will be someone who will come and collect it." "Just give the money then." "If I screw up and die, then you won't have to pay." "This time, the odds may be unfavorable." "I have one favor to ask of you, servant of God." "Favor?" "If I am to lose my life, could you take care of the boy that I brought along?" "There is no need to worry." "He is a normal boy." "However, he lost his parents to Yoma and has no one to depend on." "Have him become a servant to the priests or a janitor for the Great Cathedral, whatever works." "I understand." "I accept your request." "Shame on me for worrying about my own safety even though I am a servant of God." "But you, a half-human, half-Yoma, a damned slayer who is forbidden to step foot in this city, are worried about the boy you brought more than your own life." "Forgive me." "I am in your debt." "You are aware of the curfew, I presume." "Ignoring that basically gives you no excuse for being mistaken for a Yoma." "Hey, that guy's pretty good." "He dodged your slash." "My knives, however, did hit their targets." "Why you!" "My knife!" "Why you!" "A woman?" "!" "Damn it, I'm not letting you get away!" "It's useless." "It's too late already." "My knives hit her!" "We have the advantage if we go after her now." "This is the knife she threw back at you." "Forget bloodstains, it doesn't even have the smell of blood on it." "Wh-What..." "Who on earth is that woman..." "What's the matter?" "I think I heard something." "How is this..." "We patrolled the inside of this Great Cathedral in its entirety..." "S-So, why..." "Oh yeah, where's Clare?" "!" "You've woken up?" "Clare." "Your eyes..." "Ah." "Those pills only last for half a day." "That is why I must swallow another when the effects wear off." "Ah, you'll need some water, right?" "It seems something has happened at the Great Cathedral." "No one make a single move." "We're searching for a Yoma." "W-Wh-What?" "We've found the bodies of soldiers whose guts were devoured by a Yoma in the Great Cathedral last night." "We ask for your cooperation." "Yes, yes." "She was wearing clothing like this." "There was a suspicious woman that was running on the rooftops last night." "I heard you two came to the city yesterday." "Now, wait a minute!" "I never said anything about the woman last night being a Yoma." "Just that no normal person is able to do that unless you were one of the silver-eyed witches!" "You're a pretty fine woman." "Thank God..." "She was able to swallow the pills in time." "But we're dealing with a witch that sold her body to Yoma." "It shouldn't be surprising if she can change the color of her eyes, eh?" "What the hell do you think you're doing, you brat?" "Screw you!" "How dare you say that of my sister!" "My sister is the gentlest person and has the purest heart of anyone I know!" "Don't be talking like that about her when you know absolutely nothing about her!" "Brat!" "Galk..." "We're leaving." "That's quite enough, no?" "Damn it!" "Don't ever come back again!" "That was quite fast how quickly you came up with that nonsense." "Ah, no." "Well, the part about being my sister was a lie, but I meant the part about being gentle and having a pure heart." "What's wrong?" "I probably would not have intervened even if that man were to beat you." "Don't try to expect gentleness from me." "Your expectations will probably be betrayed someday, and you'll be hurt emotionally." "Clare..." "Both soldiers had their guts devoured, correct?" "Yes." "It appears we're dealing with a Voracious Eater." "V-Voracious Eater?" "Yoma that have lived a long time have an increased appetite become slier and become difficult to deal with." "We call those Voracious Eaters." "It is most likely that the reason it hides itself within this holy city is to deceive the eyes of their natural enemies, us and to block our abilities from discovering them." "Will we be all right?" "I need some intelligence." "Tell me who was able to enter and leave the Great Cathedral last night." "And also, tell me who could stay inside the Great Cathedral overnight." "No one is allowed to go in and out at night." "Only priests, monks, and a few selected soldiers were here last night." "It appears that it's best to assume that the Yoma is inside." "However, I do not understand how it can stay within the Great Cathedral all this time." "Why did it choose a confined area voluntarily?" "Something's not right." "It's as if I'm forgetting something important." "There's movement." "It's that woman after all." "All right, no more excuses for you, the gentle sister who's thoughtful for her brother." "Silver eyes..." "She even has a different expression on her face tonight." "Unfortunately, I have little time to spare." "I will not go easy if you're going to interfere with me." "If you're going to face me, come prepared." "Bullshit!" "Damn her two swords!" "Can't we do something?" "I'll try!" "Now!" "So this is a silver-eyed witch, a Claymore?" "It's from the Great Cathedral!" "Shit!" "After her!" "What was the sound just now?" "!" "Who was that just now?" "It's here." "There's a very massive Yoki present." "Is this a side effect of the pills?" "I'm not able to determine the location of the Yoma." "A guard?" "His guts have been eaten." "Am I dealing with a Voracious Eater, after all?" "For a Yoma of this caliber to have been hiding in here..." "Wh-What the hell is that?" "!" "That's the Yoma!" "Stay back!" "Wh-What the hell is this?" "Where was a thing like this hiding?" "!" "It's coming!" "It's gone!" "Bitch!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Why you!" "Get back!" "You guys are no match for it!" "Run!" "Out of the way!" "Throwing away life to protect life." "Will that wish be achieved?" "Next episode, "Clare's Awakening"."
