[00:00] Tear
Now, then.
[00:02] Tear
Here's to our new research students.
[00:05] Tear
Cheers!
[00:07] Group
Cheers!
[00:10] Haruto Copy
Hey there. It's me, Haruto C.
[00:13] Haruto Copy
A lot happened last time,
[00:15] Haruto Copy
but now we're having a welcome
party for the newcomers.
[00:18] Tear
Welcome to my research lab!
[00:20] Tear
Go on, drink up!
[00:22] Haruto Copy
And as for me...
[00:26] Haruto Copy
I can feel a passionate gaze
coming from next to me.
[00:29] Haruto Copy
Um, is something wrong?
[00:31] Polkos
A-Ah, excuse me.
[00:33] Polkos
Oh, I was just thinking that
you and I might be alike.
[00:37] Haruto Copy
Huh? In what way?
[00:39] Polkos
Like how we always get dragged into things.
[00:42] Haruto Copy
A-Ah...
[00:44] Haruto Copy
On that note, I always see
you with Professor Tear.
[00:49] Polkos
You could say that we're stuck together.
[00:52] Polkos
Truth is, I used to be a teacher for
the Luseiannel household.
[00:57] Haruto Copy
What?
[00:58] Haruto Copy
You were Professor Tear's teacher?
[01:00] Polkos
Yes.
[01:01] Polkos
She's been like this from a young age,
[01:04] Polkos
which, honestly, gave me trouble to no end.
[01:07] Polkos
She was a bright child, who grasped
ideas faster than I could teach her,
[01:10] Polkos
and then came to me with hypotheses
far exceeding even the material.
[01:15] Polkos
Seeking out knowledge wherever
her curiosity guided her,
[01:18] Polkos
she managed to find success carrying
out all sorts of experiments.
[01:21] Polkos
After she'd done all she could at home,
[01:25] Polkos
she enrolled in this academy, and I
was assigned to keep an eye on her.
[01:30] Polkos
Ultimately, she never did require
my teachings to begin with.
[01:35] Polkos
She is undoubtedly a genius.
[01:37] Polkos
She has developed a number of new spells,
[01:40] Polkos
and people said she was most deserving of
the title of Sage, the highest in modern magic.
[01:45] Polkos
So despite all of that...
[01:48] Polkos
Why did she have to pursue
ancient magic, of all things?!
[01:53] Polkos
A lost branch of magic that
might not even be useful!
[01:57] Haruto Copy
W-Well, we couldn't possibly fathom
the thought process of a genius.
[02:03] Polkos
You're right.
[02:05] Polkos
I'm nothing more than mediocre.
[02:07] Haruto Copy
It backfired!
[02:10] Haruto Copy
A-Awkward.
[02:13] Iris
Hey, Haruto!
[02:18] Iris
Havin' fun?
[02:19] Haruto Copy
H-Hey!
[02:25] Haruto Copy
Wait, she's been drinking!
[02:28] Iris
Wahoo!
[02:32] Haruto Copy
What is it?
SIGN Grin
[02:33] Iris
Wanna drink some, too?
[02:35] Haruto Copy
No, I'm fine.
[02:37] Haruto Copy
Ah, hey!
[02:41] Haruto Copy
That was for you*?!
[02:50] Iris
Haruto!
[02:52] Iris
Thanks for joinin' the lab with me!
[02:56] Haruto Copy
Dweh!
[02:58] Iris
I think I can get stronger here...
[03:08] Haruto Copy
She fell asleep.

SIGN Not a Bad Night
[04:49] Haruto Copy
That should do it.
[04:51] Tear
Whee!
[04:52] Tear
Are you having fun, Haruto?
[04:57] Tear
Haruto, do you know why she insists
on studying ancient magic?
[05:03] Haruto Copy
No.
[05:04] Tear
I found out during her mana
assessment for the entrance exam.
[05:07] Tear
As it happens, she possesses every element!
[05:11] Tear
Do you know how rare that is?
[05:13] Tear
Yes, like a tried-and-true hero of legend,
rising up from a commoner's life!
[05:19] Tear
However, real life doesn't
work out so nicely.
[05:22] Tear
Unfortunately, her mana level is 5/35.
[05:27] Tear
She may still be young,
but that's way too low.
[05:30] Tear
It may well be that her mana level
won't increase any further.
[05:36] Tear
But she's still in her teens.
[05:39] Tear
I'm sure that's why she
turned to ancient magic.
[05:41] Tear
Ancient magic comes from an age brimming
with ancestors who were level 100.
[05:46] Tear
It may provide a clue
to raising one's level.
[05:49] Tear
I had yet to conduct any research
toward that end, either.
[05:53] Tear
I'm thrilled to have a
new topic of research!
[05:57] Tear
To pursue the slightest of possibilities...
[06:00] Tear
What a beautiful thing that is.
[06:06] Tear
This alcohol's got me saying
things I normally wouldn't!
[06:10] Tear
I should sleep, too.
[06:12] Haruto Copy
Huh? Um...
[06:20] Haruto Copy
They all fell asleep before I realized it.
[06:29] Schneidel
By tomorrow, everyone in school
will know I called off the duel...
[06:33] Schneidel
After I went so far as to side
with the Church of Lucifyra
[06:36] Schneidel
to ensure that Father
would be the next king!
[06:41] Schneidel
At this rate, all of my machinations
will have been for naught!
[06:45] Schneidel
Hafen House Special Assassin Unit!
[06:49] Schneidel
You understand what your mission is, right?
[06:52] Schneidel
Eliminate Haruto Zenfis and
the other three, tonight!
[06:57] Group
Yes!
[07:07] Assassin Unit Captain
Situation report, now.
[07:09] Assassin Unit A
Yes.
[07:10] Assassin Unit A
The four targets are the only
ones inside the mansion.
[07:12] Assassin Unit A
They're gathered in the south-central
room on the second floor,
[07:15] Assassin Unit A
and there are signs of a celebration.
[07:17] Assassin Unit A
Three of them are heavily
inebriated from drinking.
[07:20] Assassin Unit A
Haruto Zenfis has also
fallen asleep on the sofa.
[07:23] Assassin Unit Captain
We're fully protected against witnesses?
[07:25] Assassin Unit A
Yes.
[07:26] Assassin Unit A
We have ten men in position putting up a net
for soundproofing and intruder detection.
[07:31] Assassin Unit Captain
And we also have ten men
from the Assault Unit.
[07:34] Assassin Unit Captain
Twenty men gathered here
from our elite forces.
[07:37] Assassin Unit Captain
Failure is absolutely impossible here.
[07:40] Assassin Unit Captain
Let us commence the operation!
[07:42] Group
Yes!
[07:50] Assassin Unit Captain
What's wrong?!
[07:52] Assassin Unit B
M-My nose!
[07:56] Assassin Unit Captain
It's like there's an invisible wall here.
[07:59] Assassin Unit Captain
Check the surroundings!
[08:08] Assassin Unit A
It's no use.
[08:09] Assassin Unit A
It looks like it completely
surrounds the building.
[08:16] Assassin Unit A
Not even a scratch!
[08:17] Assassin Unit A
Is this the work of magic?
[08:20] Assassin Unit A
A door suddenly appeared!
[08:22] Assassin Unit Captain
I heard this from Lord Schneidel.
[08:25] Assassin Unit Captain
Close to Haruto Zenfis is someone called
Shiva, who uses strange powers.
[08:30] Assassin Unit Captain
Proceed with caution.
[08:39] Assassin Unit Captain
Use your most powerful magic
to destroy that door!
[08:47] Assassin Unit Captain
What just happened?!
[08:49] Assassin Unit Captain
Shiva... who in the world is he?!
[08:52] Assassin Unit C
C-Captain!
[08:55] Assassin Unit Captain
My word!
[09:04] Assassin Unit Captain
Hone your senses!
[09:06] Assassin Unit Captain
He must be somewhere nearby!
[09:15] Assassin Unit Captain
There!
[09:18] Assassin Unit Captain
Capture him!
[09:23] Assassin Unit Captain
There's two of him?!
[09:30] Assassin Unit Captain
I didn't hear anything
about multiple Shivas!
[09:33] Assassin Unit Captain
How strange!
[09:35] Assassin Unit Captain
Something is strange here!
[09:38] Assassin Unit E
Captain!
[09:41] Assassin Unit Captain
N-No way!
[09:44] Assassin Unit Captain
I-It can't be!
[09:46] Assassin Unit Captain
D-Damn it!
[09:49] Haruto
You've finally realized it?
[09:55] Assassin Unit Captain
S-So you're Shiva!
[10:01] Assassin Unit Captain
What?! I can't move!
[10:03] Haruto
I've sealed the movement
of all twenty of you.
[10:06] Assassin Unit Captain
Wh-What'd you say?!
[10:08] Haruto
But seriously, your boss...
[10:11] Haruto
Sending assassins for this?
[10:13] Haruto
You've gotta be kidding.
[10:15] Haruto
Anyway, Captain.
[10:18] Haruto
Time to make you spill the
beans on everything you know.
SIGN Am I Actually the Strongest?
[10:37] Haruto
They were under your orders, were they not?
[10:40] Schneidel
N-No!
[10:42] Schneidel
It wasn't me!
[10:44] Schneidel
I've never seen any of these people!
[10:45] Haruto
Never seen them, huh?
[10:49] Schneidel
Eliminate Haruto Zenfis and the other three!
[10:52] Schneidel
Wh-What in the world is this spell?!
[10:54] Schneidel
A projection of the past?!
[10:55] Schneidel
That's impossible!
[10:56] Haruto
Well, leaving that aside.
[10:59] Haruto
You know...
[11:00] Haruto
Sending all these people as assassins
because of a grudge is complete overkill.
[11:04] Haruto
I mean, it looks like the Vise Block
didn't teach you anything.
[11:08] Haruto
Looks like you need a real punishment.
[11:13] Schneidel
A-Are you going to kill me?
[11:19] Schneidel
Like hell I'm going to let you kill me!
[11:22] Schneidel
I am Schneidel Hafen!
[11:25] Schneidel
The man slated to be the
king after the next king!
[11:37] Haruto
Huh? Schneidel?
[11:45] Haruto
No way!
[11:46] Haruto
What is this, an anime plot twist?!
[12:03] Haruto
That mysterious syringe
turned him into a monster.
[12:12] Haruto
For now, I've gotten him
outside the building.
[12:15] Haruto
The question is, what do I do now?
[12:17] Haruto
I really wish I could just
pretend I didn't see this!
[12:22] Charlotte
Haruto!
[12:24] Haruto
Char.
[12:25] Haruto
Children should be asleep at this hour.
[12:27] Charlotte
You're right.
[12:27] Charlotte
I couldn't sleep because I thought
you might be up to something!
[12:32] Haruto
Well, I am fighting a mysterious
monster right now.
[12:37] Charlotte
What kind of monster would that be?!
[12:39] Haruto
Ah...
[12:40] Haruto
Ah, r-right!
[12:43] Haruto
A certain organization experimented
on a human and turned him into this!
[12:49] Charlotte
H-How cruel...
[12:51] Charlotte
Haruto, isn't there any
way you can save him?
[12:54] Haruto
Eh?
[12:55] Haruto
Ah... let me think.
[12:58] Haruto
I wonder if there's a way...
[13:03] Haruto
Fine, then.
[13:04] Haruto
Guess I'll have to do it for Char.
[13:08] Haruto
I've got this!
[13:09] Charlotte
I know you do, Haruto!
[13:26] Haruto
Wow, he's well above even Gigan's strength.
[13:35] Haruto
How do you like this?!
[13:39] Haruto
This is getting me nowhere!
[13:42] Haruto
I guess I should stop his arms...
[13:58] Haruto
Okay, what to do now...
[14:10] Charlotte
He tore off his own arms!
[14:17] Haruto
Ah...
[14:18] Haruto
The type that can regenerate, huh?
[14:25] Haruto
How am I supposed to deal with this?!
[14:27] Charlotte
Haruto!
[14:28] Charlotte
There's something weird about the monster!
[14:31] Haruto
Huh? He's been weird this
whole time, actually.
[14:34] Charlotte
It looks like he's shrunken a bit.
[14:37] Charlotte
His skin's become slightly paler, too.
[14:40] Haruto
It's true.
[14:41] Haruto
So if we whittle away the
parts that became huge,
[14:44] Haruto
he'll return to his normal size?
[14:47] Haruto
Great work, Char.
[14:49] Haruto
I think this will work out.
[14:50] Charlotte
I'm honored by your words!
[14:52] Haruto
In that case, time to go all-out!
[14:56] Haruto
Thousand blades, forged in
the flames of purgatory!
[15:05] Charlotte
Th-This is a new special attack!
[15:08] Haruto
Become as fangs soaring through the sky,
[15:11] Haruto
and rend my foes!
[15:14] Haruto
Japanese Blades, Gather!
[15:22] Haruto
Schneidel! Return to your old self!
[15:24] Charlotte
Go!
[15:46] Haruto
He's back to normal.
[15:49] Haruto
Char.
[15:51] Haruto
He was saved because of you.
[15:53] Haruto
Thank you.
[15:54] Charlotte
You're welcome!
[15:55] Charlotte
I couldn't see some of it
because of a mysterious light,
[15:58] Charlotte
but you really were able to turn him back!
[16:00] Haruto
I'm glad I used light to hide
the bits I can't let Char see.
[16:04] Charlotte
I'm sure I'll have very good dreams tonight!
[16:07] Haruto
Glad to hear it!
[16:09] Charlotte
Well, good night!
[16:11] Haruto
Yeah, good night.
[16:14] Haruto
Okay, time for the clean-up work.
[16:20] Haruto
Schneidel.
[16:21] Haruto
Getting back to our earlier conversation...
[16:24] Haruto
Hmm?
[16:26] Haruto
Hey, wait! Where are you going?!
[16:35] Haruto
Looks like he's not in
any state to be talking.
[16:38] Haruto
Guess I should grab that
syringe that he used.
[16:42] Haruto
That tired me out.
[16:44] Haruto
Let's fix up the mansion real quick
so I can get back and sleep.
[17:04] Haruto Copy
I happen to find these
surroundings pretty fun.
[17:08] Haruto Copy
How do you feel about it?
[17:11] Haruto
I'm you, so I feel the same way.
[17:19] Haruto Copy
I see.
[17:20] Haruto
Wait, you went through all that,
and you're having fun?
[17:24] Haruto Copy
Well, it's... you know.
[17:27] Haruto
I see, so you're a tsundere.
[17:29] Haruto Copy
Y-You think it's way better than our
previous life too, don't you?
[17:33] Haruto
Well, I can't deny that.
[17:36] Haruto
We used to be shut-ins,
but now we've changed.
[17:39] Haruto
At some point, we began to think that
being with others might not be so bad.
[17:46] Haruto
It's way past the dorm curfew.
[17:48] Haruto
You should just stay here for the day.
[17:50] Haruto
You're really doing great, you know.
[17:54] Haruto
See you.
[18:08] Flay
Have you seen any, well,
ominous signs in the royal capital?
[18:11] Old Man
Pardon?
[18:13] Flay
Anything will do.
[18:14] Old Man
Yes, yes.
[18:14] Flay
Tell me what's going on in the capital!
[18:15] Old Man
Yes, yes.
[18:16] Old Man
What was that?!
[18:18] Hooligan A
Need some assistance, lady?
[18:21] Hooligan A
I'd be more than happy to talk with you.
[18:23] Hooligan B
Why don't you come over this way?
[18:25] Flay
Something you can't discuss here?
[18:27] Flay
I see, very well.
[18:29] Hooligan A
I'm glad you're so quick on the uptake.
SIGN Ding...
[18:37] Liza
Let me ask you again.
[18:39] Liza
Can you tell us everything you know
about happenings in the capital?
[18:43] Hooligan A
Ah, yes.
[18:47] Charlotte
Interesting.
[18:49] Charlotte
The king and queen consort are on bad terms,
[18:52] Charlotte
and there is unrest among
the aristocracy, as well.
[18:56] Charlotte
It seems my predictions
proved correct after all.
[19:00] Charlotte
Danger is near at hand in the royal capital!
[19:03] Liza
I'm not sure about that...
[19:05] Johnny
No, Miss Liza.
[19:07] Johnny
The enemies have already mobilized.
[19:10] Johnny
You saw my liege make short work
of their vanguard, did you not?
[19:15] Johnny
Lady Charlotte.
[19:17] Johnny
Let us gaze once more upon that
"footage," as you called it!
[19:19] Charlotte
Right away!
[19:21] Charlotte
Click!
[19:26] Charlotte
Haruto is so cool!
[19:29] Flay
Indeed.
[19:30] Flay
Some of it I can't see, thanks to
that strange light partway through.
[19:33] Flay
But Lord Haruto's exploits are
fantastic, even on repeated watches!
[19:36] Johnny
To overwhelm the opponent,
and yet show mercy!
SIGN Lovely
[19:39] Johnny
My liege is magnanimous, indeed!
[19:41] Liza
I feel like we've gotten off-topic.
[19:44] Liza
Well, whatever.
[19:46] Gigan
Snore...
[19:48] Charlotte
According to Haruto, this person is the
student council's vice president.
[19:52] Charlotte
This is purely conjecture on my part...
[19:55] Charlotte
But perhaps he was acting on orders
from the hidden student council!
[20:02] Charlotte
The incident occurred after
Haruto entered the academy.
[20:06] Charlotte
Which means they became aware of his powers,
and accordingly set their plan into motion.
[20:11] Charlotte
It's the logical conclusion.
[20:12] Charlotte
And there can be no doubt that
they're linked to the evil syndicate
SIGN Student Council
SIGN Hidden Student Council
SIGN Hidden
SIGN Evil Syndicate
SIGN Villain
[20:16] Charlotte
that shakes the royal capital!
[20:19] Flay
And what if they are?
[20:21] Flay
No matter the foe, they stand
no chance before Lord Haruto.
[20:24] Charlotte
That may be, but since we don't
know where they could be hiding,
[20:28] Charlotte
it could end up being a burden.
[20:29] Flay
That's true.
[20:30] Charlotte
Which is why...
[20:32] Charlotte
I believe that now is
the time for us to act!
[20:36] Charlotte
First, we infiltrate the academy.
[20:38] Charlotte
Then we gather intelligence.
[20:40] Charlotte
Finally, we expose those
tied to the evil syndicate!
[20:44] Charlotte
We have willingly gathered
here for this very moment!
[20:48] Charlotte
Let us all act as support
for Haruto in his service!
[20:51] Charlotte
Meeting of the Round Table, to arms!
[20:54] Flay
Indeed. No objections here.
[20:56] Johnny
Yes. All in service of my liege.
[20:59] Liza
Lady Charlotte.
[21:00] Liza
"Meeting of the Round Table"
is what we call our meetings,
[21:03] Liza
so we should come up with
a name for our group.
[21:07] Charlotte
Then we shall be known as Camelot.
[21:10] Group
Yes.
[21:11] Charlotte
Then, one more time...
[21:14] Charlotte
Camelot, to arms!
[21:21] Haruto
Infiltrating the academy?!
[21:23] Haruto
Things are really moving along without me!
[21:26] Haruto
Still, an evil syndicate, huh?
[21:29] Haruto
From what Professor Tear
said, it really does exist.
[21:33] Haruto
And I can't shake the feeling
that she's involved.
[21:37] Haruto
I'll need to be diligent with monitoring,
[21:40] Haruto
so that Char and the others
can safely investigate.
[21:43] Haruto
It's all so I can live a nice,
quiet life in seclusion.
[21:50] Haruto
So be it.
[21:51] Haruto
Let's do it.
