Look, you must be joking.
Excuse me, this isn't a joke, you know.
Getting all big-headed just because you got a tiny bit lucky!
You only got a bit lucky, and now you're already gloating about winning.
Revolting and despicable!
How disgusting and wretched...
What a self-righteous piece of work you are!
What a revolting product of your own self-centered...
Really, when will you feel you've had enough of making people look foolish?
feelings!
Ah, and here I am, so vehemently and diligently appealing to you!
Honestly, how much are you going to make fun of others before you're satisfied?
Just how slothful can you be?!
Even though I'm appealing to you so intensely and diligently...
You're violating my rights as an unselfish man who desires nothing but
How truly slothful you are!
to settle for a tiny bit of simple, ordinary happiness!
On top of that, for me, who only wishes for a modest and ordinary happiness,
and holds no other desires, that is just an infringement of my righ—
I love you.
I love you.
I'm... inside the carriage?
The inside of the dragon carriage?
Emilia?
Emilia.
I didn't... Return by Death, did I?
I didn't Return by Death, right?
She's so soft and warm.
Soft... warm!
Try not to get up to too much mischief.
Quit messing around, in fact.
Howawha?!
Emilia was so worried that she hasn't slept for two nights, I suppose.
Emilia lost two nights of sleep worrying about you, I suppose.
I'm glad! You're safe!
Oh, thank goodness you're okay! And the others?
What about the others?
Don't worry. Everyone is safely together, I suppose.
Don't worry, in fact. They are all safe and sound, I suppose.
Man, what a huge relief! I was so worried!
I'm so glad. I was really worried.
Let me hug you!
Let me hug you!
Is this...
This is...
It is.
It is, in fact.
The inside of the Pleiades Watchtower, I suppose.
The interior of the Pleiades Watchtower, I suppose.
You're...
You're...
Who are you?!
Who are you?
Are you the Sage?
Are you the Sage?
I finally found you...
I've finally found you, Master.
Master.
Master~!
Master!
I've been waiting for you~!
Oh, man! Oh, man! Oh, man! I've been waiting so long!
What is this, in fact?!
Wh-Wh-What is the meaning of this?!
It's been so long!
Hold it! Hold it! Hold it!
I was so lonely~!
It's been forever! I missed you so much!
Ow!
Ow!
What is this brute strength?!
What kind of insane strength is that?!
Who even are you, and what is going on?!
Who even are you in the first place!
What do you mean?! I'm Shaula!
What are you talking about?!
Keeper of the Pleiades Watchtower,
I'm Shaula!
and your precious student, Shaula!
The Star Keeper of the Pleiades Watchtower!
There's trouble! I woke up and Subaru was go—
Master's cute apprentice, Shaula~!
Emilia-tan, help me!
Oh no!
Hiyah!
I woke up and I can't find Subaru anywhe—
Wait, why?!
Emilia-tan, save me!
I don't know! I just feel very upset!
Why?
Subaru, please try not to let us down.
I don't know why, but something about it reaaaally bothers me.
You're making a lewd face, Pervarusu.
Subaru, do not ruin my image of you.
I am not, and don't mash those words together!
You’re making a pervy face, Pervbaru.
Master! Master! I'll never leave you again!
No, I'm not! Stop ganging up on me!
Anyway! I'd like to start discussing things before my arm gets ripped off!
Master~! Master~! I'm never letting go again!
We're just as baffled as you are.
Anyway, I want to move this conversation along before my arm gets ripped off.
This woman who barely said a word before is hangin' all over Natsuki now.
We're just as confused.
This gal's barely spoken a word so far
yet she's so smitten with ya, Natsuki-kun.
Her?
Her?
You said it yourself, Master.
Master told me,
No matter what anyone asks, don't say more than you need to!
"No matter who asks you what, don't say anything unnecessary."
Don't talk! Don't tell!
"Keep your mouth shut, don't tell them anything, just stab them!"
Hell, just stab 'em dead first!
I'm just following that.
I was just doing what you taught me!
Your Master sounds pretty cruel.
Your master was pretty awful, huh?
Ignore that. You can talk to everyone else too.
Forget all that. You can talk to everybody else, too.
Alright~!
Oh, man! This is awesome!
I did it~!
Master gave me permission!
I got Master's permission~!
Okay, so you are the Sage we've heard so much about, right?
So then, it's safe to say that you're the infamous Sage, right?
Hmm...
If Master is looking for Shaula, then that's me.
If it's a "Shaula" you're looking for, yeah, that's me.
That's right!
I guess my love is mutual!
But if you're looking for the Sage Shaula, I don't really get it either.
But if it's a "Shaula the Sage" you're looking for,
The Shaula generally thought of by the public is this Shaula.
I dunno anything about 'em.
The holy gold coin is the Divine Dragon.
This is the Shaula that people mean when they say "Shaula."
The gold coin is the first Sword Saint.
The holy gold coin has the Holy Dragon,
The silver coin is the Sage.
the gold has the first Sword Saint,
It doesn't resemble that girl at all, I suppose.
and the silver has the Sage.
Huh? It looks just like you, Master.
She doesn't look the least bit like this, I suppose.
Me?
Wow, that looks just like Master!
How?
Me?! How?!
I also think they don't really resemble each other.
I don't think this person really looks like Subaru, either.
Yeah, the way I found Master had
Oh, I didn't recognize Master based on his looks, so no problem!
nothing to do with looks, so no problem.
Where exactly did you learn that phrase?
Where did you learn that way of speaking?
If it wasn't his looks, how did you recognize him?
If it is not about looks, how did you recognize him?
His smell!
Scent!
The only person who gives off such a nose-burningly black,
The only person who could be reeking of such a nose-curling, vile, acrid stench...
disgusting smell is Master!
...is definitely you, Master!
I've never felt so hurt before in my life!
That's the first time I've ever been hurt that badly!
Seriously? Do I smell that bad?
What?
D-Don't worry, Subaru.
Do I really smell that bad?
I understand. Let's make sure we have proper baths later.
I-It's okay, Subaru.
You don't understand at all!
I understand.
So you are Shaula, but you aren't the Sage.
We'll make sure you take a proper bath later.
Then do the Sword Saint and Holy Dragon sound familiar to you?
That doesn't make me feel any better!
Blech!
Ah...
I guess so.
You're Shaula, but not the Sage, right?
Of course I've heard of them!
Then, do you know anything about the Sword Saint and the Divine Dragon?
I've known Reid the stick swinger and Volcanica the sarcastic forever.
Euuugh~!
They're probably doing pretty good these days, right?
You know them?
Reid has been dead for years.
Of course I know them.
For real?!
Stick Swinger Reid and Cynical Volcanica are old acquaintances of mine.
He seemed like a guy nobody could kill! How'd he die?
I'm sure they're doing fine.
Reid is dead.
Long dead.
Seriously?
He was the kind of guy who wouldn't die even if you killed him. How did he die?
Old age.
Old age.
Oh, yeah. I guess he was a human, after all.
Oh, right.
I'll ask you straight. Just who is your master?
Reid was more or less a human, after all.
That's a weird question.
Let me ask you again.
You guys are traveling with him. Shouldn't you know?
Who exactly is your Master?
I'm sorry, but your master hit his head on a chamber pot and forgot many things.
Hm? That's a strange question.
Really, Master? Again?
Why wouldn't you, his companions, know?
"Again"?!
Unfortunately...
All right, then, I'll make the big announcement.
Your Master hit his head on the toilet bowl and lost a lot of things in there.
My master's name—yes, the name of the great, renowned wise man!
Master, you did it again?
The only one in this world worthy of being known as the Sage!
Again?
We don't need a drumroll.
In that case, here is a grand pronouncement from my own mouth!
Tah-da!
My Master's name...
Flügel!
Yes, it is the renowned Great Sage!
If anyone in this world is to be called a Sage,
it's only Master who is worthy!
Durururururururu...
Enough with the preamble.
Ta-da-da!
Flugel!
Huh?
Huh?
My master's name is Flügel.
My Master's name is Flugel!
Flügel the Wise Man!
The Great Sage Flugel!
Isn't that the name of the guy who planted that tree?
That's... the name of the person who planted the tree.
Damn, that's scary! We're so high up!
Scary!
And not even a handrail to offer a sense of security!
So high!
Hey, naked lady, this ride is way too bouncy.
Having no guardrail here feels insanely worrisome!
A kid getting a free ride shouldn't be so demanding.
Ugh, please don't shake me around so much, naked Onee-san!
Hey! Quit pulling my hair!
You're acting all arrogant for an ankle-biter riding on someone's back.
Come on, Meili. Don't antagonize her.
Hey, don't pull on my hair!
And no playing with her ponytail.
Now, now, Meili, don't provoke her so much!
It's not a ponytail. It's a scorpion tail.
No playing with her ponytail!
It's not a ponytail! It's a scorpion tail!
Huh?
Huh?
Scorpion tail!
Scorpion tail.
Okay, fine. Why get so hung up on that?
Okay, I get it.
This door serves as the tower's primary entrance and exit, I suppose.
What kinda fixation is that?
Rem and Patrasche are on the next floor up.
This is the official door for entering and exiting the tower, I suppose.
We have to go higher?!
Rem and Patrasche are on the floor above, in fact.
Also, if this is the entrance, how did Patrasche and the carriage get that far?
We're going up again?
Shaula carried everything for us.
And if this is the entrance to the tower,
She just went, "Hup!" And lifted them up.
how did the dragon carriage and Patrasche get carried in?
Shaula carried them all.
She just yoinked them up!
Pardon?
Pardon?
Aw, please!
Haha! That much is easy for me!
That was a piece of cake!
I'm more freaked out than grateful.
I'm more freaked out than grateful.
Whether you're grateful or freaked out,
Whether you're grateful or totally freaked out, just accept my unwavering feelings, for you!
please just accept my earnest feelings for you!
I've been rejected!
Smack.
The one who made this was Flugel, right?
You threw 'em away?!
Come to think of it, I heard he was called a Sage but,
So I guess Flügel built all this, too?
I never imagined I'd meet him again here.
You know, I heard he was known as the Sage,
Besides planting trees, what did that Sage even do, I suppose?
but I never thought I'd hear about him again here.
But even so, it's huge, ain't it? It's finally starting to sink in.
I don't really know what he did other than planting that tree, I suppose.
Sink in?
This tower sure is huge, though.
That we've finally reached the Pleiades Watchtower we were aiming for.
It's finally starting to hit me now.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. With that level of understanding, you're at a mere 99 out of 100 points.
What's starting to hit you?
Isn't that basically 100 points?
That this is the Pleiades Watchtower that we were trying to reach.
I added extra points out of love for you, Master! Bonus after bonus after bonus after bonus!
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
The Pleiades Watchtower is just a temporary name and a temporary role.
If that's all you understand, you get a 99 out of 100 at best.
Now that Master has returned, this place will return to its original role.
That's basically a perfect score!
Original role?
Well, that score factors in bonus points
Yes!
for how much I love, love, love you!
Anything you want to know, anything you want to realize.
Pleiades Watchtower is just a temporary name for a temporary role.
A great library where you can find anything!
Now that you've returned, it'll go back to its original role.
The Great Library Pleiádes!
Its original role?
We give Master a huge, huge, huge, HUGE welcome back!
Yep!
Rem and Patrasche are inside here...
A great library where you can find everything you ever wanted to know!
Hey, Ram! The vines are moving!
The Great Pleiades Library is so, so, so, so happy to have you back!
You’re overreacting. You'll startle the master of the room.
Rem and Patrasche are in here?
Master of the room?
Whoa! Ram, the vines moved!
The Spirit.
You're too jumpy.
It really feels like a jungle.
You'll startle the room's master.
The room's... master?
A spirit.
It feels like a jungle.
Rem...
Rem...
And Patrasche.
Patrasche too...
When we rejoined Lady Emilia,
When they reunited with Emilia-sama, Patrasche was seemingly badly injured.
Patrasche was gravely injured.
And now the Spirit is healing her with its power.
The spirit's power has been healing her.
The Spirit here apparently has no will of its own.
The spirit living here doesn't seem to have anything like a will.
It just tries to heal the wounds and illnesses of any living thing that enters.
It only tries to heal the illnesses and injuries of creatures who enter.
Then Rem too...?
Then could it heal Rem?
It has no effect on Rem.
It doesn't work on Rem.
It can't heal what isn't a wound or an illness.
It can't heal something that isn't an illness or injury.
That's what the Spirit seems to have judged.
That's what the spirit decided.
In the end, nothing will change if things stay like this.
So in other words, after all this, nothing changes.
If you want it to change, you'll have to accomplish what you came to the tower for.
If you want to change it, you must achieve the objective of your tower visit.
The Great Library Pleiádes, huh?
The Great Pleiades Library, huh?
We'll grasp that answer, and take Rem back.
I'll find the answer and get Rem back.
That goal hasn't changed.
That goal hasn't changed.
Okay! I'm going back to the others. You?
Alright, I'm heading back to the others.
Aren't you too worried to leave Rem with no one watching her?
What about you?
Okay, then, I'll leave you in charge of her.
Someone has to watch over Rem, or I'll get too worried.
Although all I can do is watch over her...
Then, I'll leave Rem in your care.
You watching over her means plenty.
All I can do is watch over her, though.
It matters that you're the one watching over her.
Please take care of Rem and Patrasche.
Please take care of Rem and Patrasche.
This floor is basically my den.
This floor's kinda like my home.
I spend most of my time watching the dunes from here,
Normally, I keep watch over the sand dunes from here.
and anyone who gets close to the tower gets shot! Shot!
And then, anyone who approaches the tower, I shoot them down one by one!
I knew it.
Just as I thought...
That was you.
That was you?
You have no idea what I went through because of that.
Thanks to that, I had a terrible time!
A shot that keeps interfering pests away from the tower:
I’m just sniping to keep the pests away.
Hell's Snipe!
Hell's Snipe.
Was everything all right inside?
Was everything okay inside?
Yeah, they're fine. Ram's watching them.
Yeah, all good. Ram's watching over her.
We don't know what she'll do if she finds out you're not Flügel.
If she finds out you're not Flugel, there’s no telling how she’ll react, in fact.
So we can't correct her or let her know, huh?
Correcting her or letting it slip would both spell disaster.
Regulus and Petelgeuse were so much easier to deal with than this.
Regulus and Petelgeuse were a lot easier to deal with.
Master! Somethin' wrong?
Master~! Something wrong?
Not a thing.
It's nothing. I just need to confirm one thing.
I just want to make sure of one thing.
So your reason for sniping at those heading for the tower...
The reason you shot people approaching the tower was...
Of course! Master's orders!
Your orders, of course, Master!
For 400 years, day after day, I’ve been watching the sand sea,
For 400 years, I spent every single day watching that sea of sand.
living through those long, dry, tearful days!
It's a story so sad, both hearing it and telling it make me want to cry!
All alone for 400 years...
You were all alone for 400 years?
You'll listen to what I say, right?
You'll do anything I tell you, right?
W-what is it with that serious face?
Wh-What's that serious expression for?
Nothing too lewd...
I won't do anything perverted.
Don't harm me or any of my companions.
Don't harm me or my friends.
Your Master's orders are to attack anyone who approaches the tower, right?
Your master's orders were to attack anyone approaching the tower, right?
So, since we're already inside, you don't need to attack us anymore.
So now that we're inside it, there's no need to attack us.
Don't harm us. Ever.
Do not harm us. No matter what.
Yeah, OK!
Okay, got it!
I'll remember that as a new order of yours, Master~!
I've committed it to my memory as my new orders from you, Master!
Alright, then it's a promise.
Good. That's a promise, then.
Roger that!
Roger that!
I'll protect you all! I'll protect the hell out of ya!
I'll keep it!
Once again, welcome back, Master!
I'll totally keep it!
I, Shaula, have waited most eagerly for the return of Flügel the Wise Man!
Now to say it again, welcome back, Master~!
We've come as high as the sixth, fifth, and fourth floors.
The return of the Sage Flugel...
Above here is the exam site that takes up the third, second, and first floors.
I, Shaula...
Exam site?
have been waiting for you with all my heart.
Yep. On the third floor,
We've come up through the 6th, 5th, and 4th floors,
you'll be tested to make sure you qualify to enter the archive.
and from here up are the 3rd, 2nd, and 1st floors of the trial grounds.
You have to qualify to enter the Great Pleiades Library's archive?
Trial grounds?
That is the greatest challenge we face at present.
Yup.
I see. So the rest of you took that exam while I was asleep.
First, on the 3rd floor, it'll test your right to enter the archives.
This looks like a room I wouldn't want to stay in very long.
The right to enter the archives of the Great Library Pleiádes?
I agree.
That is, the most difficult hurdle for us.
Staying long in here would rob you of your sense of equilibrium.
I see.
A stone... slab?
While I was sleeping,
One might call it the device that sets up the puzzle for us.
everyone else was attempting the trial, huh?
When you touch that slab, the exam will begin, I suppose.
This is...
I just need to touch this monolith?
A room I don't want to stay in for long.
Monolith? Somehow, that name seems rather fitting.
Agreed.
I'll use that henceforth.
If we stay too long, we might lose our sense of direction.
Here I go.
A stone slab, huh?
Hero vanquished by Shaula,
That is, a device that presents us with a riddle, so to speak.
touch upon his grandest splendor.
Touching that slab will start the test, I suppose.
So I just need to touch this monolith?
A monolith...
It's a strange, yet fitting name.
Let's call it that from now on.
I'm going to touch it.
The hero destroyed by Shaula.
Touch his utmost brilliance.
What do you think?
What do you think?
Do you see now why we were so surprised at first?
Our initial surprise...
So what I just heard was an exam question?
Are you able to empathize with it?
Subaru, there are a few things you must know before beginning the exam.
So what we just heard is the trial's question?
First, try touching the slab—rather, the monolith closest to you.
Subaru, there are a few things to keep in mind before starting the trial.
You like the word that much?
First, the stone slab that is close at hand.
I mean, that's fine, but...
Or actually...
You've returned to the starting point.
Try touching the monolith.
In other words, it was determined that you failed the exam.
Do you like the sound of it that much?
Naturally...
I mean, it's fine with me.
Hero vanquished by Shaula,
We are back to the initial state.
touch upon his grandest splendor.
In other words, it is a judgment of disqualification from the trial.
I see. So I can keep trying over and over until I pass.
Of course.
That is our conjecture at present.
The hero destroyed by Shaula.
Just running around touching monoliths blindly will not lead you to the answer.
Touch his utmost brilliance.
That is all I can tell you.
I see, so we can challenge it as many times as we want until we clear it.
So you guys already tried the scattershot approach, huh?
That is our current hypothesis.
That does seem like something you'd try, Emilia-tan.
By the way, about these monoliths.
Still, even if you know the answer,
Even if you touch them randomly, you won't get the answer.
what do you have to do to "touch upon his greatest splendor"?
Let me state that much clearly.
True...
Blindly firing isn't gonna give us the right answer.
Well, you won't get anywhere standing here thinking about it forever.
That's certainly a method Emilia-tan would try.
I think you should try asking the naked lady.
But even if we somehow knew the answer,
I guess so.
how would that count as touchin' his utmost brilliance?
Shaula! Can you think of any heroes you've vanquished who fit the bill?
Good point.
Only second-rates remember the names of all the people they kill!
We're not gonna get anywhere just standing around thinking forever, right?
One as first-rate as me doesn't remember anyone beyond the first hundred!
I think we should just ask the naked Onee-san directly.
Yeah, I figured!
Well, that's true.
So anyway, out of the names I remember...
Shaula, do you have any idea which hero you destroyed?
Let's see... Oh!
Remembering all the names of those I've killed is second-rate work!
What about Reid?
First-raters like me don't remember anything beyond a hundred!
Was it you who killed the first Sword Saint?
I thought so!
Hey, watch it!
So then, let's start with the names I remember...
Th-Thanks, Big Brother.
That's right.
Nah, it kinda happened because I blurted that out without warning.
Ah, didn't you kill Reid, the first Sword Saint?
What? Does the first Sword Saint scare you that much?
T-Thank you, Onii-san.
Don't be silly.
Nah, seems like it was my fault for saying something so careless.
He's the progenitor of the Astrea family, including Reinhard and his grandfather.
What?
In addition to his sword skills, he must have been a man of great character.
Was the first Sword Saint that scary of a person?
Miss Shaula, allow us to hear your thoughts without reservation.
Don't be ridiculous.
He was the ancestor of Reinhardt and the Astrea family.
He must have been a man of great character, not just skilled with a sword.
Shaula, I want to hear your honest opinion.
He was human scum.
He was human scum.
Allow us to hear your thoughts without reservation.
I want to hear your honest opinion.
Don't pretend she never said it!
Don't pretend like it didn't happen!
Well, at any rate, he was an awful person.
Well anyways, he was a nasty guy.
Like when a rotten little brat grows up and still doesn't change.
His personality was like a spoiled brat who never grew up.
He absolutely loved bullying the weak.
He loved picking on the weak.
Hell, from his perspective, pretty much everyone was a weakling,
Or rather, from that scumbag's perspective, most opponents were weak.
so no matter who he fought, he was bullying the weak.
So no matter who he fought, it was just picking on the weak.
He did it to me all the time.
I was also beaten up by him.
He must've been a real monster if he got the better of you.
To be able to beat you up, he must be quite a monster.
Actually, wait...
Wait a minute.
There's a chance that challengers have to defeat Shaula to enter the tower,
Challengers to the tower could potentially defeat Shaula and enter the tower.
so the answer has to be something I'd know without asking her.
It has to be an answer we could get regardless of whether we ask Shaula, right?
Subaru?
Subaru?
Natsuki? Did ya think of somethin'?
Natsuki-kun?
The possibility of conquering the tower without Shaula...
What is it? Somethin' come up?
What if there's another Shaula that Shaula doesn't realize is Shaula?
A possibility of clearing it without involving Shaula.
What's up, Master?
Even if you don't know Shaula is Shaula, if you know Shaula exists, then...
You're embarrassing me, staring at me like that!
What is it, Master~? If you stare at me like that, I'll blush~.
Beako!
Beako!
That expression...
That look on your face is one that Betty likes, in fact.
That's the expression Betty likes to see on you!
I want to jump a little higher and look down on this monolith from above.
I want to jump up high and look at these monoliths from above.
Hmph.
Murak!
Murak!
Just like I thought.
Just as I thought.
Did you achieve your goal, I suppose?
Did we achieve our goal, I suppose?
I sure did!
Yeah.
This place...
This place...
is as sadistic as they come.
is the absolute worst...
I know the hero's name.
The name of the hero...
Natsuki, how did ya figure out the answer?
I understand it now.
It wasn't that big a deal.
Natsuki-kun, how did you know the answer?
It's not you guys' fault you couldn't solve it.
It wasn't that big of a deal.
There are very few people in this world who could.
It’s not any of your faults that you guys couldn't solve this.
The name of the hero vanquished by Shaula...
The number of people who could possibly solve it is very small to begin with.
was Orion.
The hero destroyed by Shaula...
His name...
is Orion.
Orion?
Orion?
Wait, wait! I've never heard of any Orion!
No, no, no! I don't know that guy!
I wouldn't expect you to.
It's only natural that you wouldn't.
The "Shaula" in the question wasn't even you at all.
To begin with, the "Shaula" in this problem wasn't referring to her.
But I'm the only Shaula!
I'm the only Shaula~!
That's the name you gave me, Master!
It's a name I received from you, Master!
I'm saying the name your master gave you has a story behind it.
Your Master, who gave you that name, had an origin for it.
The story behind Shaula's name?
The origin of the name Shaula...
Is this another thing that only you know, Subaru?
Could it be something only you know again, Subaru?
Well, not only me.
It's not just me, though.
Where I come from, there's a star named Shaula.
Where I come from, there’s a star called "Shaula".
It means "stinger," but specifically, it refers to a scorpion's tail.
Its meaning is "stinger", and the stinger it refers to is a scorpion's.
A scorpion?
A scorpion?
Legends say the hero Orion let his ego get the better of him,
According to legend, the hero Orion got too arrogant.
so he got stung and killed by a scorpion that was sent to torment him,
He was stung to death by a scorpion sent to take him down, and turned into a star.
and turned into stars.
Then, the scorpion that killed Orion also became a star for its accomplishment.
And for its achievement, the scorpion was also turned into a star.
So even now, in the sky, Orion is said to be afraid of scorpions.
They say Orion is still terrified of that scorpion, even up in the night sky.
When you put it like that, even a heroic tale sounds kind of depressing, in fact.
When you simplify it that much, even a hero's tale sounds disappointing.
Anyways,
Anyway!
there's the idea of constellations, where stars look like shapes of people or animals.
Groups of stars that resemble people or animals are known as constellations.
You could also call it an asterism.
They can also be called asterisms.
And then,
And when I looked down at the monoliths from above... there it was.
when you look down at the monoliths from above...
Then, when I envisioned the constellations and found Orion...
Just imagine the shape of the constellation,
When you found it?
and trace Orion...
"His grandest splendor" is a tricky way to phrase the question.
And then what?
The thing is, different stars shine in different ways.
The phrase "utmost brilliance" is surprisingly tricky.
Some are consistently bright, while others flash brighter at times.
Actually, there are various ways stars shine.
There are two stars in Orion that could be said to shine the brightest.
Some are always bright, while others occasionally shine brightly.
There's Rigel, which shines consistently...
In the constellation Orion, there are two stars that fit the description of "utmost brilliance".
and Betelgeuse, a variable star that glows extra bright at times.
One that is always bright, Rigel.
But it's not very elegant to have two acceptable answers, so...
And Betelgeuse, a variable star that occasionally shines brightly.
If it were me, I think I'd choose Rigel.
Leaving it open to both interpretations isn't a very elegant answer, but...
If it were me, I'd probably go with Rigel.
