[00:09] ROMANTICA
Hey, you...
[00:11] DESIR
Romantica!
[00:12] DESIR
You're safe—
[00:15] ROMANTICA
How do you know my name?
[00:18] ROMANTICA
Have we met before?
[00:24] DESIR
Oh, sorry...
[00:26] DESIR
I, uh, saw that.
[00:33] ROMANTICA
Hmm.
[00:35] ROMANTICA
So we're in the same testing group.
[00:38] ROMANTICA
Best of luck to you, I guess.
[00:48] DESIR/I
Of course I know you.
[00:52] DESIR/I
You have no idea how
devastated I was to lose you.
[00:59] DESIR/I
I will never let you go through
such an ordeal ever again!
[01:20] [SONG] OP LYRICS
Fate is always more heroic than any story
[01:30] [SONG] OP LYRICS
The one and only despair flaunts
a completely different sky
[01:37] [SONG] OP LYRICS
A stolen smile

[01:58] [SONG] OP LYRICS

[02:42] LADORIA
Desir, you're in Group D.
[02:45] LADORIA
The test is...
[02:48] LADORIA
a race in the Erenstee Plains in the
beginner level of the Shadow World.
[02:54] LADORIA
But don't worry.
[02:55] LADORIA
We call it a Shadow World,
but it's not dangerous.
[02:58] LADORIA
It's actually safe.
[03:01] LADORIA
The Shadow Worlds used at Hebrion Academy
are created for the purpose of the tests.
[03:07] LADORIA
They employ a safety system,
[03:10] LADORIA
so even if you receive fatal damage,
you can evacuate immediately.
[03:15] DESIR
Damage...
[03:17] LADORIA
Right. In other words, in this test—
[03:19] ELHEIM
The use of magic and attacks towards
other participants is allowed.
[03:24] ELHEIM
You know?
[03:26] LADORIA
Elheim!
[03:28] ELHEIM
And... it is impossible
for you lot to pass the test.
[03:34] LADORIA
You won't know that until we try!
[03:37] ELHEIM
Oh, but I do.
[03:41] ELHEIM
Allow me to present my mentee,
Azest Kingscrown.
[03:47] ELHEIM
She's a magic knight.
[03:49] LADORIA
A magic knight?!
[03:52] DESIR
Azest...
[03:54] DESIR/I
I know you very well.
[03:58] DESIR/I
She is a magic knight of ice
and a high Circle mage
[04:01] DESIR/I
who can wield vision magic,
which is impossible to inverse.
[04:05] DESIR/I
And she's better with a sword
than most pure knights.
[04:07] DESIR/I
She'll be my most reliable teammate.
[04:17] DESIR/I
I guess she's still not much of a talker.
[04:25] ELHEIM
What's the matter, Ladoria?
[04:27] ELHEIM
Have you lost your steam from earlier already?
[04:30] LADORIA
Oh, please! You just got lucky
with your mentee assignment!
[04:34] LADORIA
It doesn't reflect your skills whatsoever!
[04:36] ELHEIM
No, it obviously reflects my personal virtue.
[04:40] ELHEIM
I guess a commoner is a perfect
fit for someone of your level.
[04:46] LADORIA
What did you say?!
[04:51] DESIR/I
Good to see you again, Azest.
[04:55] LADORIA
I mean... Frankly, your odds aren't
that great against a magic knight.
[05:00] LADORIA
But don't give up, okay?
[05:03] DESIR
Thank you, Ladoria.
[05:07] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
We will now begin the testing for Group D.
[05:10] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Participants, please assemble at the gate.
[05:14] DESIR
I'm off.
[05:16] LADORIA
Good luck!
[05:58] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Welcome to Erenstee Plains
in the Shadow World.
[06:04] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
You will be aiming for the goal over there.
[06:09] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Only the top three will pass the test.
[06:13] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
You are allowed to use magic attacks,
interference, and any other methods.
[06:19] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
If you receive fatal damage,
you will be disqualified.
[06:27] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Please line up at the starting line.
[06:35] DESIR/I
Azest survived until the end, like I did.
[06:39] DESIR/I
Did she come back to this world
with past memories, by any chance?
[06:45] DESIR/I
I have no idea what she's thinking...
not that I could ever tell before.
[06:50] AZEST
Desir Herrman.
[06:53] DESIR
H-How do you know my name?!
[06:56] AZEST
I checked the roster before I came here.
[07:00] DESIR
Oh, I see.
[07:03] AZEST
You are at the lowest Circle,
with below average physical abilities.
[07:07] AZEST
Even if you continue training,
you have no future.
[07:12] DESIR
You may be right.
[07:14] DESIR/I
Sounds like she has no past memories...
[07:17] AZEST
I noticed that you've been observing me,
but you need not be wary.
[07:22] AZEST
I have no interest in attacking the weak.
[07:26] DESIR
Is that so?
[07:28] DESIR
Thanks.
[07:31] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
The race through Erenstee Plains
will now begin.
[07:37] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Counting down. Five, four,
[07:41] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
three, two, one,
[07:45] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
start!
[07:49] ROMANTICA
Hey!
[07:50] ROMANTICA
You're kicking up the dust!
[07:53] ROMANTICA
Jeez!
[08:01] ROMANTICA
Oh, I'm sorry!
[08:07] ROMANTICA
It's fluffy... So cute!
[08:12] DESIR
You still like that sort of stuff.
[08:15] ROMANTICA
Huh?! What do you mean by "still"?!
[08:18] ROMANTICA
What do you think you know about me?!
[08:21] DESIR
Um...
[08:22] ROMANTICA
What? Are you, like, hitting on me?!
[08:25] ROMANTICA
You think you're hitting on me?!
[08:26] ROMANTICA
Why don't you focus on the race?
[08:29] DESIR
You're right.
[08:31] DESIR
But at this rate, both of us
are going to be disqualified.
[08:35] ROMANTICA
Don't lump me in with you.
[08:38] ROMANTICA
Stop acting so familiar!
[08:40] DESIR
Sorry, my bad.
[08:41] ROMANTICA
My gosh!
[08:42] ROMANTICA
That face you're making really
bugs me, so stop it!
[08:46] DESIR
I just missed this so much, I can't help it.
[08:48] ROMANTICA
You missed what exactly?!
[09:02] SING
Man, stop sticking your nose
where it doesn't belong!
[09:05] SING
I'll blast you away first!
[09:09] SING
Fire Rod!
[09:15] ROMANTICA
Wind Strike!
[09:29] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Due to fatal damage, Sing Eggs is
disqualified from the Shadow World.
[09:36] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
There are five participants remaining.
[09:41] ROMANTICA
I guess I owe you one.
[09:44] ROMANTICA
Thank you for looking out for me.
[09:47] ROMANTICA
However!
[09:48] ROMANTICA
This settles the score, you hear me?!
[09:52] DESIR
Sure.
[09:53] ROMANTICA
I. Told. You!
[09:56] ROMANTICA
Stop making that face!
[10:01] DESIR
But don't you need to catch up?
[10:03] DESIR
They've got quite a lead.
[10:05] ROMANTICA
Hmph!
[10:07] ROMANTICA
I was going to save this for later, but...
[10:10] ROMANTICA
I guess it's fine.
[10:13] ROMANTICA
I'll show you my true abilities.
[10:16] ROMANTICA
Aerosweep!
[10:22] EXAMINER
Groups A and C have just finished.
[10:26] EXAMINER
Groups D and F are currently being tested.
[10:29] EXAMINER
Everything is going smoothly.
[10:32] PROFESSOR A
This year's candidates are excellent.
[10:36] PROFESSOR B
Indeed.
[10:37] PROFESSOR B
After all, we have a magic knight this year.
[10:41] PROFESSOR C
Overwhelmingly strong.
[10:43] PROFESSOR C
She's what all nobles should be.
[10:45] PROFESSOR A
Exactly.
[10:47] PROFESSOR A
By the way, there is a commoner in Group D.
[10:54] PROFESSOR B
In the same group as
the magic knight, of all things?
[10:56] PROFESSOR B
Even I pity him.
[11:14] TREVIRI/I
So fast.
[11:16] TREVIRI/I
As expected of the magic knight.
[11:18] TREVIRI/I
Well, if I keep up this pace, I should pass.
[11:35] TREVIRI
A blast like this isn't strong
enough to blow me away...
[11:40] TREVIRI
What?!
[11:42] TREVIRI
She's cutting through... the wind?!
[11:46] TREVIRI
That's a magic knight for you.
[11:48] TREVIRI
Just you watch!
[11:57] TREVIRI
Wait...
[12:00] TREVIRI
What the heck?!
[12:05] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
Due to fatal damage,
Treviri Tycus and Nasi Holm
[12:10] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
are disqualified from the Shadow World.
[12:15] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
There are three participants remaining.
[12:20] ROMANTICA
I guess one of them survived.
[12:23] ROMANTICA
Anyhow, now both of us will pass.
[12:27] ROMANTICA
Did you really think I'd say that?
[12:31] ROMANTICA
You're next.
[12:40] ROMANTICA
You'd better drop out.
[12:43] DESIR
May I ask why?
[12:45] ROMANTICA
That! That face you're making!
[12:47] ROMANTICA
It pisses me off!
[12:49] DESIR
Is that the reason?
Isn't that a little harsh?
[12:53] ROMANTICA
Oh, not at all.
[12:56] ROMANTICA
I'm trying to talk you out of this
before you get hurt.
[13:01] ROMANTICA
Aren't I so kind?
[13:05] ROMANTICA
If you get it, go ahead and drop out now.
[13:10] ROMANTICA
Okay?
[13:14] DESIR
I refuse.
[13:17] ROMANTICA
Good, nice to know you're obedient—
[13:19] ROMANTICA
Wait! What did you just say?!
[13:22] DESIR
I said I refuse.
[13:25] ROMANTICA
Are you stupid?
[13:26] ROMANTICA
You saw my magic, didn't you?!
[13:30] ROMANTICA
Stop smiling!
[13:31] ROMANTICA
I gave you a chance...
[13:35] ROMANTICA
I'm through with you!
[13:47] ROMANTICA
It'll hurt so bad you'll think you're gonna die,
[13:49] ROMANTICA
but they say you can't die here, so rest easy.
[13:53] ROMANTICA
Wind Strike!
[14:05] ROMANTICA
Bye-bye!
[14:12] DESIR
You're able to handle
that many simultaneously?
[14:14] DESIR
Impressive.
[14:17] DESIR
As expected of you, Romantica.
[14:21] ROMANTICA
Huh?!
[14:22] DESIR
But you prioritize speed,
so your control is weak.
[14:28] DESIR
A slight adjustment to the trajectory,
and it won't hit.
[14:32] ROMANTICA
Wha... Who do you think you are?!
[14:34] ROMANTICA
It just happened to miss, that's all!
[14:37] ROMANTICA
There's no way you could beat me!
[14:41] ROMANTICA
I won't miss this time.
[14:46] ROMANTICA
Have a taste of my Venom Wind!
[14:51] DESIR
Same thing again.
[14:53] DESIR
If I change the air currents a little...
[14:58] DESIR
They'll miss the target.
[15:02] ROMANTICA
Did you just...?
[15:04] ROMANTICA
No way...
[15:07] ROMANTICA
An inversing spell?
[15:10] DESIR
Correct.
[15:13] ROMANTICA
No way...
[15:16] ROMANTICA/I
Usually, someone has to be at a much higher
Circle to be able to inverse your spell.
[15:22] ROMANTICA
That's impossible,
since you're at the lowest Circle!
[15:36] ROMANTICA
Are you serious?
[15:39] ROMANTICA
I can't believe it...
[15:41] ROMANTICA
He really did inverse it.
[15:45] ROMANTICA
Does that mean his skills
are much higher than mine?
[15:52] DESIR
Shall we finish this up?
[15:56] DESIR
I have others I need to defeat.
[16:00] DESIR
I can't stay here for long.
[16:07] ROMANTICA
So what?
[16:10] ROMANTICA
Try and see if you can
inverse this many spells!
[16:26] DESIR/I
You are strong, Romantica.
[16:29] DESIR/I
Surely one of the best among
this year's new students.
[16:34] DESIR/I
But not strong enough.
[16:37] DESIR/I
At this rate, we will
repeat the same future.
[16:41] DESIR/I
Romantica, you can become stronger.
[16:45] DESIR/I
And that's why I have to
be the one to win now.
[17:09] DESIR
There are three things you overlooked.
[17:14] DESIR
First, inversing spells
isn't the only thing I can do.
[17:18] DESIR
Grease.
[17:23] ROMANTICA
That's one of the basic spells
to erase friction.
[17:27] ROMANTICA
Why would you use that?
[17:30] DESIR
Second, you're not the one
I've been fighting all along.
[17:35] DESIR
Third, we're not being tested on magic skills,
but on whether or not we can reach the goal.
[17:43] DESIR
And even if we receive fatal
damage here, we won't die.
[17:48] DESIR
Which means I can do something like this.
[17:53] ROMANTICA
That's... fire magic?
[17:56] ROMANTICA
Are you insane?!
[17:57] ROMANTICA
You might not die,
but you'll still take damage!
[18:00] DESIR
Fireball.
[18:11] ROMANTICA
Whoa.
[18:13] ROMANTICA
He's really out there.
[18:40] AZEST
He'll catch up with me.
[18:44] AZEST
I don't know what kind of method
you used to beat Romantica Eru,
[18:47] AZEST
but I will take back that I called you weak.
[18:51] AZEST
I'll defeat you with everything I've got.
[18:57] AZEST
Magic Arrows of Prey.
[19:10] DESIR
Analysis completed on every linked spell.
[19:15] DESIR
Control obtained over Magic Arrows of Prey.
[19:20] AZEST/I
Inversing the spell?
[19:22] AZEST/I
I'll end this before you take them all!
[19:30] DESIR
Adjusting trajectory!
[19:46] AZEST
You dodged the fatal blow.
[19:54] AZEST
Inversing spells...
so that's how you defeated her.
[20:05] AZEST
I won't give you time to inverse my spell.
[20:09] AZEST
I'll crush you in one fell swoop!
[20:14] DESIR
Good call.
[20:16] DESIR
As expected from you.
[20:24] DESIR
Adjusting trajectory!
[20:35] AZEST/I
He's using the blowback...?!
[20:39] DESIR
You're too hung up on beating me, Azest.
[20:50] ANNOUNCEMENT/I
First place in Group D is Desir Herrman!
[21:10] DESIR/I
Azest...
[21:13] DESIR/I
Romantica...
[21:17] DESIR/I
We have to get stronger
[21:23] DESIR/I
so we can overcome that tragedy.
