1. 7th Saint's Betrayal

18 lines

SEED Headquarters.

Forbidden area.

Ancient scroll room.

Frantiva

I knew it... That's it.

This is what Rotania said, the secret that is hidden and... Cannot be known by the Radiants.

(Rapid footsteps can be heard outside the door.)

Frantiva

Is that the Guardian Legion? Tut, they are so fast.

Angela

I'm the probationary 7th Saint, Angela! Trespassers in the forbidden area, if you don't surrender immediately...

Sis... Sister?

It's you! You, you are back!!!

You've been missing for seven months! Do you know how much I've been worrying about you!!!

Frantiva

...Angela.

Angela

Wait, why... Why are you in the forbidden area?

You hurt the guards and turned this place into a mess... What are you looking for?

Frantiva

...You don't need to know, Angela.

Angela

No! You have to tell me why you are here!

You have to! Otherwise, I... I...

Frantiva

There's no need to be embarrassed. Bring it on.

2. 7th Saint's Betrayal

14 lines
Angela

Um...

Frantiva

You've improved, Angela.

Angela

Don't say that! You mustn't leave here today!

Breaking into the forbidden area, stealing secret scrolls and harming your fellows! Do you know the consequences of what you did?

You'll be treated as a traitor! Frantiva!

Angela

No... Don't leave!

Do you want this stain on your life? You have always been my idol...

We've always taken care of each other... But now, are you leaving me? Sister!

Frantiva

Take good care of yourself, Angela.

Angela

Sister!!!

Radiant Gregorian calendar 2013.

Frantiva, the "7th Saint", stole the secret scroll from the forbidden area, and her whereabouts are unknown.

Defection confirmed.

3. Doomsday Prophecy & Exile

9 lines

Radiant Gregorian calendar 2012, the outbreak of the Doomsday War.

A large number of Nightmares attacked the edge of the Dream, and the sky gradually turned purple without human's realizing.

At that time, Bloomsea Battlefield.

Under the siege of endless Nightmares, 7th Saint Frantiva led the SEED soldiers into a bitter battle.

Frantiva

We can't keep doing this. Their movements are very strategic. They must under the command of a Nightmare Lord.

Hold on, everyone. I must find out where the Nightmare Lord is and get rid of it first!

Betty

Don't worry. Leave this place to us, Lord Frantiva!

Frantiva

Is that you? I got you!

Die!

4. Doomsday Prophecy & Exile

24 lines
Angela

I... I can't hold on anymore...

Sister... No, I can't rely on sister right now...

I have to...

So, this isn't working... I wish there wasn't an argument...

Sorry, goodbye... Sister...

Frantiva

This is... what?! Angela?!

Fenebeth

Your sister is going to die.

Frantiva

It was a trick! Your death is upon you, don't try to confuse me!

Fenebeth

Well, it's a method of escape, but...

What you're seeing is true. It's an... Apocalyptic prophecy, what is going to happen...

Fenebeth

Not all of the Nightmares can be killed, and Doomsday will come. Even your most loved ones will die, what do you still insist on?

All disasters will happen eventually. We are just making the process faster...

Frantiva

Speak clearly! You! ...Disappeared?

Betty

Brilliant! The Nightmares have lost their commander and are in chaos. Well done, Lord Frantiva!

Frantiva

That's impossible... This isn't true...

Betty

...Lord Frantiva?

Frantiva

No, nothing.

Do your best here, we must rush to support other battlefields!

Betty

Yes! Lord Frantiva!

Frantiva

...Angela.

Radiant Gregorian calendar 2012. Under the leadership of SEED, the Doomsday War saw a Pyrrhic victory.

However, the First Saint fell, the Radiant world went into a downturn.

In July of this year, the 7th Saint Frantiva disappeared and her whereabouts were unknown.

5. The Dream-Devouring Dark Knight

9 lines

Radiant Gregorian calendar 2012, winter.

The 7th Saint of SEED appeared in Solomon, where Uroboros was in the Dream.

Fenebeth

Isn't that the 7th Saint who left home?

What are you doing here? Did you finally recognize the apocalyptic prophecy? So you came here to seek help from Uroboros?

That's not impossible. Why don't you be my servant first? I quite like you...

Frantiva

I have something to ask Rotania in person.

Fenebeth

Huh? How confident, 7th Saint?

You think you are qualified to meet Lord Rotania? Oh, come on!

Frantiva

Get out of my way!

6. The Dream-Devouring Dark Knight

20 lines
Rotania

You are very strong, 7th Saint of SEED, Frantiva.

Frantiva

You know me? You know why I'm here...

In this world, you are the only one who can answer this question, apart from the First Saint.

Rotania

Hah. I've punished Fenebeth for spreading information about Doomsday.

The so-called end of the world is bound to come. Maybe I should tell you something interesting... Bring it here.

Frantiva

This is... The Radiant you captured?

Captured Radiant

No, no... Just kill me! I don't want to see this. I don't want to see this!!!

Frantiva

What did you do to him!

Rotania

He's been seeing nightmares he used to have. Don't worry, something interesting will happen soon.

As you can see, the rumor that "nightmares affect human beings" is nothing more than a lie spread by the perpetrator.

Nightmares come from people's minds. The so-called eliminating nightmares... Hah, so stupid and arrogant.

Frantiva

How do I know that... you aren't lying?

Rotania

I don't need to deceive anyone. The truth you want is within reach.

SEED seems to have a forbidden area, even for the Ten Saints, which is a tradition handed down from a long time ago.

Don't you want to know what secrets there are. In any case, aren't the top soldiers allowed to know?

Go ahead... Your answer is right there.

Frantiva

I'll go there. If... I'll show you the consequences of lying to me.

Fenebeth

Is that really a good idea, Lord Rotania? Don't you want to keep her for your own use?

Rotania

She'll come back. It's her destiny.

It was decided as early as the moment she was linked. The Black Knight, Ganelon, was a Spirit famous for his betrayal...

7. Protect the Beloved One

17 lines
Ashwaya

Lord Rotania, Fenebeth is attacking the Radiants again. Her targets seem to be people from SEED this time.

Rotania

Well, her link hasn't been stable recently. She needs to get some power from pure Lenses...

But there's no need for her to get into trouble like this. Go bring her back.

Frantiva

I will go.

Ashwaya

Frantiva? Huh? You've never cooperated with any operations before, but you volunteer to help this time?

It's not because you're still attached to your former colleagues, is it?

Like... Your sister, the new 7th Saint?

Frantiva

If I say yes, will you have a problem with that?

Angela

Is it here? The scene of the attack?

Everyone, be careful. Let's split up and investigate.

Kiraya

Yes, Lord Angela!

Fenebeth

Oolala, this beautiful face, that elegant posture, and... That heart that's pretending to be strong... So tempting...

Frantiva

I think you can remain hungry.

Fenebeth

Huh? Frantiva? Why are you here? Did I hear it wrong? Were you just joking with me?

Frantiva

...Rotania asked me to take you back.

Fenebeth

What! Do you know how unstable my link is now? If I don't inject new strength, my body will be useless!

Frantiva

Tut, stop wasting everyone's time!

8. Protect the Beloved One

12 lines
Fenebeth

Come on, we're colleagues now. How can you be so cruel to me! Don't you think you should protect this tiny body?

Frantiva

...What are you talking about? Stupid mummy.

Fenebeth

You can't take your eyes off her! You care so much about her. Do you want a touching reunion, ex-7th Saint?

She has replaced you as the new 7th Saint, while you are a traitor. Haha, how interesting!

Do you want me to tell her the reason her traitor sister rebelled was to save her? That's going to be very touching!

Frantiva

...Maybe you aren't worried enough about the unstable link. Do you really want to die that badly?

Fenebeth

Oh, how terrifying.

Angela

There are no traces left here. Let's go over there and have a look.

Kiraya

Yes, Lord Angela!

Fenebeth

Helped her escape, but she didn't realize at all. I guess she can only make herself feel touched by doing this kind of thing.

Frantiva

The perpetrator isn't entitled to say that.

The new 7th Saint... Angela is tougher than I thought...

9. Farewell Again

11 lines

Muscipula Operation Squad discovered the big secret about the "artificial lens" in the Mystery Lab.

They were suddenly attacked when they tried to investigate further.

The lab was destroyed and people fled in panic.

At this time, SEED stopped Frantiva who was about to leave.

Angela

...Frantiva?!

You... Blew up the lab... You did it?!

Why are you helping the enemy?!

Frantiva

...Instead of pestering me here, you'd better check if the new members in that team are in danger.

Angela

You?!

Hmph, you think I'm still the weak coward that I used to be?

Take it! Frantiva!!!

10. Farewell Again

15 lines
Angela

Did I... Lose...

Vanessa

Even if Lord Angela took over the position of 7th Saint, it would be a desperate mission. In terms of strength, it's still...

Ah..!

Angela

Vanessa?! Frantiva, what are you doing?

Frantiva

Can't even take one move?

Recognize your own strength before questioning others.

Angela

Frantiva..?

Are you leaving again..?

Tell me the truth! Frantiva!

No matter what others say, as long as you didn't say it in front of me, I wouldn't believe it!

Frantiva

...Angela.

You deserve a better life.

Angela

Frantiva!

What burden are you carrying? Why do you never tell me things? Why won't you let me bear it with you!

Sister!!!
