[CBM] Hero Tales - Chapter 17 - Bond of Father and Son.ass (DOWNLOAD SUBTITLES)
You're all right...!
Father!
--I take it you're okay? --Yeah!
So that's you guys' dad?
The head of the Qing Long Platoon. He's a man of great caliber.
Yes.
--Everyone... --Young master!
Taito.
I'm back!
Yeah.
I'll never say good-bye to our prime forever
And I feel like dumb, I don't know why
I'll never say good-bye 'cos I can't forget her
But I feel like dumb, I don't know why
Try to scream
Shattered dreams are made of stone and desperation
Broken hearts blown in a freezing wind during winterlong
Unspoken words floating on freezing wind during winterlong
During winterlong
It's good to have you back.
It seems you've been through a lot,
but it's very reassuring seeing you with so many new friends, Taito.
Y-Yeah. But... we weren't able to save Ryuko...
So I must avenge him!
Ryuko's doing just fine!
See for yourself!
Each of the stars is shining brightly and vivaciously!
Including Mizar, Ryuko's star!
G-Grandpa Son! Does that mean he's--?!
Yes. He's alive.
It would take a lot to extinguish his brightly shining star.
All right!
Yeah, I thought it was weird that our straight-laced Ryuko
would kick the bucket without even saying anything to me first!
Sounds like that dolt got lost on his way to the next life too!
Isn't that great, Rinmei?!
Yes.
By the way, Taito. Won't you introduce me to this nice girl?
Oh, right!
This is Rinmei. We met her with Ryusho at the Tong You Temple.
She's the Merak, one of the Divine Warriors--
Actually, I don't need to explain to you, do I?
My name is Rinmei. Master Ryusho has told me much about you.
My, you're a pretty one!
What do you say? Won't you go out with me?
Huh?
N-No, Master Sonnei!
Rinmei is Ryuko's...
What?!
Maybe I should've said Ryuko was dead after all...
Stop kidding around!
Okay! My turn! I'm a Divine Warrior too! I'm Hos--
Hey, where did Koyo go? I wanted to introduce him to you and Dad.
Did you say Koyo?
Yeah. He's one of our Divine Warrior friends.
He brought us here on his boat.
Maybe he had to take a leak or something?
Well, no matter. If he's come all this way, I'll see him soon enough.
Okay! My turn! I wield the Shuang Chan Bow! My name is Hos--
Say, Father. Did some kids named Lien and Shulan ever come by here?
Oh, yeah!
We met 'em on our journey and I told them to come to Lian Tong Temple.
Don't tell me they didn't come?!
Taito!
Lien! Everyone!
You were here the whole time?!
We wanted to surprise you!
It was a surprise when they suddenly showed up and said you sent them.
Being growing children, they do certainly eat a lot.
Though since you were gone, the food bill stayed the same...
Lien has been doing a lot of hard work for the temple.
I've gained even more sons and daughters I'm proud of!
Oh! So Lien and the others are brothers and sisters to me and Laila now?
Do you really think so?
Anyway, I'm Hos--
Well, you must be tired after your long trip.
You should get some rest first.
And, Taito. Use this time to think about
what you'll do next and what it is you want to do.
Yeah.
Fine. I can take a hint. No one cares who I am...
Hosei!
What are you doing? Let's go.
Okey-dokey! I'm coming!
I never thought I'd ever come back here.
So, how am I going to lie my way through this...?
Sorry to impose like this, Laila.
Not at all! You did so much for us at Tong You Temple!
Here at Lian Tong Temple you're our guest!
Say, what have you been sewing? Did something come undone?
No. It's just this.
Ryuko's--!
I don't want to leave it bare when I return it to him, so...
Men don't pay much attention to this sort of thing.
They're really hopeless.
It's such great news, though!
Yes. As long as he's alive, we'll get to meet him again someday.
You can have this back.
I was really happy that you let me take it.
But swinging a weapon around in battle just isn't my style.
Fighting barehanded and relying on your body alone, huh...
That's you, all right. I knew it at the time, too.
Still, Taito. You should have it after all.
Don't make me spell it all out.
You don't have to use it. Just... let it accompany you on your journey.
Dad...
Just as I'd expect of a user of inner-channel Energy Manipulation.
As always, you control your energy very well.
What do you want?
The Alkaid and his rabble have fled back to Lian Tong Temple.
Let's pay 'em a visit. This is a good chance to dispose of them easily.
Are you sure about this?
You've always crushed every obstacle in your path as soon as you could,
but whenever it comes to the Alkaid you act really carefree.
Let's just hope it doesn't come back to bite you later.
You know?
--Shimei. --Yes?
Surely you understand why I leave the Alkaid to do as he pleases.
Oh? I'm not sure I do...
For the karma of my star of Dubhe,
the Alkaid is more than just an obstacle.
His star is vital for my true plan that will be set in motion
once I've gained control of Luo Chang and the Xian Empire.
If you want tasty meat, you gotta fatten up the animal first, huh?
Run!
Gwarr! Get back here! Get back here!
I'm gonna eatcha!
--You're too slow! --Catch us if you can, Taito!
Get back here! Get back here!
He's as lively as always.
He's seriously just like a kid.
Why does he always have to be such a dumb brother?
Don't say that, Laila. That also happens to be one of his good qualities.
Maybe so, but...
Wow!
What Laila says is right, but what you say is even more right, Father!
--H-Hosei? --"Father"?
I brought you something to drink, Father!
Oh, that happened during your journey?
That's right, Father! I was surprised beyond belief!
Hosei! Why are you acting so friendly-like?!
Don't be silly, Laila! This is how I always am!
I'm Hosei, a man who does his utmost for the world and for others!
Does that feel good, Father?
Yes, it's nice.
My plan is flawless! If I can just get Soei to like me...
Hosei! You are a truly promising youngster!
I absolutely must let you marry Laila!
R-Really, Father?!
Oh, Father, I can't believe you said that!
But if it's with you, Hosei, I...
I will give you happiness!
Father...
Laila. Is this guy okay?
I don't think so.
I know you're there.
So, it was you.
It's been a long time.
It is good to see you again.
It's been a while since I left the mountain without saying anything.
Out of all my pupils, you were the first to run away after only one night.
That's some sort of record.
Not only that, the way you absorbed all the key points of my knowledge
led me to believe you were a very shrewd person.
Thank you.
I wasn't praising you!
You coming back with Taito now...
My, how riveting the karma of the stars can be.
I never dreamt this would happen either.
Now, then. Perhaps it's time to return
the souvenir you so rudely ran off with that night.
You have a commendable spirit. You kept it instead of selling it.
There are plenty of people who'd buy a gold cup from Lian Tong Temple.
I kept it as a last resort for the Wo Jin Squad,
but given the circumstances, I'd like to end this right.
Okay. No problem.
A bandit who steals a cat's food dish
and comes all the way back to return it isn't so bad at all.
You mean it wasn't valuable?!
Not in the least.
I've been had... by this lousy old man...
Here I come, Lien!
You can do better than that!
Oww!
C'mon, Taito. Get serious.
D-Don't be stupid! I am being serious! I am being serious!
Besides, it's because you guys attacked all at once!
But...
You're the one who said we could attack all at once.
Shut up! There's such a thing as going too far!
Hey, Lien. Is Taito actually weak?
I-I am not weak!
You saw it yourself back then!
And this is for what you did to Lien!
I was plenty strong then, right?!
But you might've just been lucky that day.
That's not true!
I know! Let's have Taito and the others do some more cool stuff for us!
A martial arts exhibition was an interesting idea.
Let's watch Taito and the Divine Warriors demonstrate their techniques.
Welcome, everyone!
Taito and his friends will now show off their martial arts prowess!
First up is Rinmei!
Next is Hosei!
I can't goof around all the time!
Sometimes I need to show my skills as an archer too!
Oh...!
Now that's the Shuang Chan Bow in full bloom!
Next is Koyo!
Pardon me, Miss. I'll need your help for a bit.
M-Me?
I-I dunno about this. He can't see anything...
If he messes up, Miss Laila will be...
Laila...
Listen up, Koyo!
One scratch on Laila's beautiful face and I'll make you pay!
I'm fully aware of the risk!
But... don't blame me if I do hit you.
Tasty!
And lastly is Taito!
--You can do it, Taito! --You can do it!
Young master! Show everyone the spirit of the Qing Long Platoon!
I know, I know! You can count on me!
Okay!
--He's... --...Going to use inner-channel energy.
Incredible...
Inner-channel Energy Manipulation...
Ol' Taito's already mastered it that well?
Whadya think?
Wh-What's with you guys?! You can act a little more excited than that!
C'mon, Lien! Shulan!
--That was really good, but... --Yeah. But...
But it was kind of bland, Taito...
B-Bland?!
To be honest, all you did was make a pillar break.
Rinmei and the others really gave us a show,
but yours had no flair at all.
You always have been kind of on the inept side...
What?! What are you guys talking about?!
That's a bunch of crap! That's a bunch of crap!
Want flair, do you?! Want exciting, do you?!
In that case...!
In that case... In that case...!
My impression of a monkey!
--Now that's good! --That's a good impression!
You're so funny, Taito!
Why is he so stupid?
I guess I didn't raise him right.
That's a good impression!
It's been so long since we've gone on patrol together like this!
You could've stayed home, you know.
You must still be tired from your journey.
Are you kidding me? I'm a member of the Qing Long Platoon too!
At least let me help with the patrolling!
Alright, then.
But it almost doesn't seem real, being here like this.
It's hard to believe I was just in the capital.
Oh, yeah! Don't be surprised when you hear this, Dad!
I met the emperor of the Xian Empire!
Emperor Taiga?
Yeah.
I figured the head of this rotten empire must be one rotten bastard,
but the emperor turned out to be a pretty good guy!
It made me think, "Oh, he's trying really hard in his own way too."
What's the matter, Dad?
So your blood brought you together...
Taito. It should be okay to tell you now.
You're the older twin brother of Emperor Taiga, ruler of the Xian Empire.
Sixteen years ago, you and Taiga were born
as successors to the previous emperor.
However, having twins always leads to succession conflicts down the line.
One needed to be swept under the rug.
The answer was simple, because you bore the Alkaid pattern.
I was a guardsman at the capital at the time,
and the night before you two turned four, I was summoned
to Tong You Temple by Sir Ryusho, who was a senior pupil there
and like an older brother to me.
I left the capital and took you into hiding at Lian Tong Temple.
We lied to the bigshots at the time and said you had died of an illness.
Everything after that is as you remember it.
I'm sorry for not saying anything until now.
There's nothing to be sorry about.
So the emperor is my little brother...
That explains why we look the same and get along so well.
And I was only able to find out for myself
because you, Ryusho, and all the others risked your lives to save me.
I really appreciate it, Dad!
Taito...
What's the matter, Laila?
I-I don't know...
The Xuan Lang Platoon!
Actually, I had hoped to keep it all a secret.
I wanted you to someday be the leader of the Qing Long Platoon,
without ever knowing about any of this.
Come to think of it, you were against me going to the capital...
Yes. I suppose I was afraid.
Afraid that you'd learn the truth and never come back to see me again.
Dad...
Gimme a break! You know I'll always be your kid, no matter what!
But it's ironic.
It turns out that out of you two, the one who was taken out of the picture
is the one who can draw the Xian Jia Lan Wu, the symbol of the emperor.
Emperor, huh...
That's hilarious! I could've almost been emperor!
I gotta brag about this to Laila and Hosei and the others!
I wouldn't if I were you. You'll get treated like a fool again.
Father! Taito!
--Lien? --What's wrong?!
What the hell are you guys doing here?!
Why?! Why, you mustached bastard?!
Why do you have to set Lian Tong Temple on fire now?!
You'll pay for this!

What are the duties of the Qing Long Platoon?
To help, protect, and love others.
It's time to give you some delightful, delightful entertainment!
There's a crack in Dad's sword!
That's it! Get angry! You are the Alkaid, after all!
Will the Alkaid's anger mark the beginning of a new era?
On Hero Tales, "Chapter Eighteen: Lian Tong Temple Ablaze."
You were the closest one to him! Why couldn't you save him?!
