Eric Bloodaxe

Terror of the Bloodaxe

Eric:
Uuhnn...

Mash:
...Eric?
What's the matter?

Eric:
Uuuuuunnn!
Uhn...Gah...Guh...Ghnn!

Fou:
Fou!?
Fou, fou, fou!

Eric:
Ghnn–!

Dr. Roman:
S-Stand back, everyone!
Eric is a Berserker!

Dr. Roman:
He could go on a rampage!
Fujimaru and Mash, get away from him!

Mash:
Eric!

Eric:
...

Fou:
Fou!

Eric:
...Y-You scum... You scoundrels... Are you the ones... who use my husband...for your ends?

Mash:
What?

Eric:
My name is Gunnhild. Normally, I would make you pay with your lives for the insolence of summoning my husband with your Holy Grail–

Dr. Roman:
G-Gunnhild!
Eric Bloodaxe's wife?

Dr. Roman:
If I'm not mistaken, she used witchcraft to put a deadly curse on his enemies. Even after her death, she continues to fight for him...

Dr. Roman:
B-But how is she contacting us?
And from where?

Eric:
But I understand your situation.
This time I shall permit you to use my husband.

Eric:
However, my husband is unable to fully unleash his power. That's because of his weapon, the Bloodaxe.

Eric:
This is the blood-stained axe formed out of the flesh and blood of demonic beasts.

Eric:
When allowed to drink the blood of several demonic beasts, its true power will be unleashed.

Mash:
Demonic...beasts?
But, where would we find...

Eric:
Fear not.
I will "summon" them now.

Dr. Roman:
I'm picking up several lifeforms!
Prepare for battle!

Mash:
Th-This is outrageous...

Eric:
Yeeeaaaarrrgh...
Kill...demonic...beasts!

Mash:
H-Here they come!

--BATTLE--:

Mash:
Whew...

Eric:
Demonic...beasts...blood...bloood!

Mash:
The axe is...drinking their blood...

Dr. Roman:
The axe's magical energy level is rising.

Dr. Roman:
I see. So it wasn't a bluff when she said its power wasn't fully unleashed.

Dr. Roman:
I've detected two more lifeforms.
Please keep heading toward the forest.

Mash:
Understood.
Eric, let's go.

Eric:
Fu...
Fuuuuu...

Fou:
Fou!
Fou!

Mash:
Fou is warning us about something.
There are traces of a large beast moving through here.

Mash:
There are large marks like something was dragged.


Fujimaru 1:
A snake?


Fujimaru 2:
An alligator?


Mash:
Either way, it's huge.
Let's go after it.

Fou:
Fou!

Eric:
...Hnnnng...axe...blood...
I want blood, blood, blood!

Mash:
C-Control yourself!

Mash:
Here they come!
They're—Lamias!

--BATTLE--:

Mash:
...Whew.
Somehow we got through that.

Eric:
Heheheheheh...blood...blood!

Dr. Roman:
Hmm, this is what we call "viewer discretion advised"
...All right, this is the last one.

Dr. Roman:
It's on the other side of the forest, but it hasn't moved. Its lifeform reading is the most powerful of all. You need to be careful.

Eric:
Hahahah...It's there...I know it's there!
Demonic...beast!

Mash:
...There it is!
That's...no way...

Dr. Roman:
A Chimera...the legendary beast with the heads of a lion and a ram, and the tail of a snake!

Mash:
What's more, it's considered to be a high-ranking demonic beast! Even from here I can sense its overpowering desire to kill...

Eric:
Master...Let's go...


Fujimaru 1:
Forward, Eric!


Fujimaru 2:
Kill!


Eric:
Your... Blood... Is... Mine!

--BATTLE--:

Eric:
Hyahahahahah! Take that!
Take that! Take that!

Eric:
Your blood...your flesh...everything...is mine!

Mash:
The axe...has started to glow ominously.

Dr. Roman:
Ahh, now I see. What an overwhelming amount of magical energy. This is that axe's true form.

Eric:
Master...
I look forward...to serving you more...Heheheheheh!

Dr. Roman:
Gee, well...

Dr. Roman:
...We certainly seem to have awakened one monstrous Servant.

Mash:
As long as you can control it Master, there's no problem... Right?


Fujimaru 1:
L-Leave it to me.


Fujimaru 2:
I-I'll do what I can.


Mash:
...That's not very reassuring Master.

Fou:
Fou!
