[00:00] Barbatos
    This woman...
[00:04] Nephy
    Maybe it doesn't need to be me who does it.
[00:07] Nephy
    There may come a day where
    someone else is precious to him.
[00:12] Nephy
    But... you can't be on your own, Master!
[00:17] Nephy
    This... doesn't hurt at all.
[00:20] Nephy
    Not compared to when he told me to leave.
[00:24] Nephy
    I belong to my master!
[00:26] Nephy
    I don't want you touching me!
[00:29] Barbatos
    You're just a slave.
[00:33] Barbatos
    Know your place!
[00:43] Zagan
    Well said, Nephy.
[00:48] Zagan
    I'd expect nothing less from my apprentice.
[00:55] Zagan
    Hey, Barbatos. It's been what, a week?
[00:58] Barbatos
    How long have you known?
[01:00] Zagan
    My suspicions began when that
    Facestealer sorcerer showed up.
[01:05] Zagan
    I didn't think someone who'd beg for
    their life after encountering me
[01:08] Zagan
    would be capable of penetrating my barrier.
[01:11] Zagan
    And only one person came to
    mind when I thought about
[01:14] Zagan
    who might be making a habit of
    getting through my security.
SIGN    Episode 6:
    If You're An Archdemon,
    You're Practically Obligated To Act Outrageously
[02:54] Zagan
    Barbatos the Purgatory.
SIGN    Barbatos the Purgatory
[02:56] Zagan
    That's what they call you.
[02:57] Zagan
    Purgatory refers to the realm
    between heaven and the underworld.
[03:01] Zagan
    Applying that concept to your sorcery,
    you create pocket dimensions,
[03:04] Zagan
    which helps you specialize in
    transportation and summoning.
[03:07] Zagan
    You're even better at it than me.
[03:10] Zagan
    And, just like the Facestealer,
     you showed up after the Angelic Knights
[03:13] Zagan
    paid me a visit, like you
    were checking on the outcome.
[03:17] Zagan
    I'd have to be crazy not to
    suspect something after that.
[03:21] Barbatos
    So you knew all along? And you still
    had the nerve to serve me tea.
[03:26] Zagan
    I was curious about what you were planning.
[03:30] Zagan
    Now, more importantly...
[03:36] Zagan
    You've hurt Nephy!
[03:44] Zagan
    First your arms!
[03:47] Zagan
    Then your knees!
[03:58] Zagan
    Sorry... that didn't hurt, did it?
[04:01] Nephy
    It... did.
[04:08] Nephy
    But...
[04:10] Nephy
    You looked a lot more
    hurt than I was, Master.
[04:16] Zagan
    I did?
[04:17] Nephy
    I don't know what has
    happened to you, Master.
[04:21] Nephy
    If you say you don't need me,
    I should probably accept that.
[04:25] Nephy
    But...
[04:28] Nephy
    If you have been hurt,
    then I know you're not okay!
[04:33] Zagan
    Do I seem... hurt to you?
[04:36] Nephy
    Yes.
[04:39] Nephy
    Please... don't be alone, Master.
[04:44] Zagan
    Nephy...
[04:47] Zagan
    I was the one who left you alone.
[04:57] Barbatos
    Hey, asshole! I'm not dead yet,
    so don't think you've won!
[05:02] Nephy
    Master!
[05:03] Zagan
    It's fine.
[05:05] Zagan
    Nothing's going to happen.
[05:15] Barbatos
    Why? The sorcery is activating,
    but nothing happens!
[05:19] Nephy
    What... is happening?
[05:22] Zagan
    Do you remember me describing the
    theoretical ultimate sorcery, before?
[05:27] Zagan
    Adding circuits to a casting circle from
    the inside, to overwrite the sorcery...
[05:32] Zagan
    There's actually a little
    trick that makes it possible.
[05:39] Zagan
    If you use the exact same casting circle,
    you can overwrite it from the inside.
[05:45] Zagan
    By doing that...
[05:47] Zagan
    The sorceries will undergo something
    like a harmonic cancellation.
[05:51] Barbatos
    Impossible... is this the
    power of Andras' legacy?!
[05:56] Zagan
    If he could manage something like
    this, he would've never died.
[06:01] Zagan
    The first time I used sorcery,
    I was eight years old.
[06:05] Zagan
    When he captured me, Andras the
    Accursed made a casting circle.
[06:09] Zagan
    I remembered what it looked like, and
    secretly drew it on the palm of my hand.
[06:13] Zagan
    With no other tools available,
    I used my own blood.
[06:16] Zagan
    Looking back now, it was a childish idea.
[06:19] Zagan
    An amateur shouldn't be able to mimic
    sorcery just by copying its form.
[06:24] Zagan
    But when I got caught trying to escape,
    and was about to be killed...
[06:39] Zagan
    It must've been a fluke.
[06:41] Zagan
    A miracle, only possible because I enacted the
     same sorcery, in only a fraction of a second.
[06:48] Barbatos
    Miracle my ass. You...
[06:51] Barbatos
    What the hell are you?!
[07:03] Barbatos
    This is impossible.
[07:04] Barbatos
    Some of those were sorceries you
    couldn't possibly have seen before!
[07:07] Barbatos
    And you were able to overwrite
    all of them in an instant?!
[07:11] Zagan
    If that was your best shot, even an amateur
    could manage it, with the right timing.
[07:15] Zagan
    If you want to call yourself a sorcerer,
    you've got a lot of room for improvement.
[07:19] Zagan
    Improving sorceries that resonated with me
     instead of simply reacting to them
[07:25] Zagan
    was my first research project as a sorcerer.
[07:29] Zagan
    And ever since, I've been cooped up in the
    castle by myself, never talking to anyone,
[07:34] Zagan
    not even my urchin friends
    from my days on the street.
[07:37] Zagan
    None of them came looking for me, either.
[07:40] Zagan
    And yet...
[07:44] Zagan
    You kept showing up.
SIGN    Get out!
[07:49] Zagan
    No matter how obvious I made my annoyance.
[07:52] (Flashback) Barbatos
    Heyo!
[07:59] (Flashback) Barbatos
    Hi...
SIGN    Slap!
[08:04] Barbatos
    I could have killed you at any time.
[08:07] Barbatos
    I was just curious to see what a
    brat like you was doing in there!
[08:12] Zagan
    Then let me show you.
[08:15] Zagan
    Can you tell? I've converted all the casting
    circles you opened up with into this.
[08:21] Zagan
    Right now it only works as
    physical enhancement sorcery,
[08:25] Zagan
    but I intend on developing it further.
[08:28] Barbatos
    You... devoured my sorcery?!
[08:32] Zagan
    Devouring sorcery...
[08:34] Zagan
    That really is a good way of putting it.
[08:36] Zagan
    I can see why you were previously
    an Archdemon candidate.
[08:40] Zagan
    That reminds me, Barbatos the Purgatory...
[08:44] Zagan
    Now that I'm an Archdemon,
    I have a title of my own.
[08:49] (Flashback) Archdemon A
    Let us welcome our new comrade...
[08:52] (Flashback) Archdemon A
    And let us grant him his second name.
[08:56] (Flashback) Archdemon A
    You will be known as...
[08:58] (Flashback) Archdemon A
    The Sorcerer Slayer!
[09:00] Zagan
    That's what they call me.
[09:16] Barbatos
    He's already eaten all my
    defensive sorceries....
[09:20] Barbatos
    And I've never known anyone who could outdo
    him in terms of physical enhancement!
[09:25] Barbatos
    Which means...
[09:27] Barbatos
    Even if I were an Archdemon, I wouldn't
    be able to stop a punch from him.
[09:35] Barbatos
    Wait... please! You win.
[09:42] Barbatos
    I swear... I'll never show
    my face to you again.
[09:46] Barbatos
    And I'll give you all of
    my knowledge... just...
[09:56] Barbatos
    Zagan... we're friends, right?
[10:01] Zagan
    Friends?
[10:03] Zagan
    Can a sorcerer even conceive of that idea?
[10:11] Manuela
    Chastille!
[10:19] Zagan
    I'm just playing. No need to panic!
[10:23] Barbatos
    What... do you think you're doing?
[10:25] Zagan
    I mean, I guess I could kill you,
[10:28] Zagan
    but that would mean not being
    treated to good liquor anymore.
[10:31] Zagan
    I don't have a good eye
    for the stuff, myself.
[10:33] Barbatos
    Are you showing me mercy?
[10:36] Zagan
    I believe this kind of thing
    is called "confidence."
[10:39] Barbatos
    Screw you!
[10:41] Barbatos
    If you let me live, I swear
    I'll kill you! I guarantee it!
[10:45] Barbatos
    Until I see you dead, I'll never give up!
[10:48] Zagan
    That's fine. As long as drinks
    are on you every time I win.
[10:53] Barbatos
    What are you... even saying?
[10:56] Barbatos
    What could a sorcerer gain
    from not killing an enemy?
[11:00] Zagan
    That's the thing...
[11:01] Zagan
    An Archdemon being bound by convention
    is a little ridiculous, isn't it?
[11:06] Zagan
    I'm going to do whatever I want.
[11:08] Zagan
    If I want Nephy to live openly in the world,
[11:11] Zagan
    then I'll just have to seize control of it.
[11:16] Zagan
    Which is why I won't kill you, either.
[11:18] Zagan
    If you don't like that, you need to get
    strong enough to force me to change my mind.
[11:25] Barbatos
    You're an arrogant bastard.
[11:27] Zagan
    What kind of Archdemon
    would I be if I wasn't?
[11:41] Zagan
    Come on, Barbatos, are you serious?
[11:44] Barbatos
    No... this isn't me.
[11:49] Zagan
    When I punched the ground,
[11:51] Zagan
    I must've subconsciously engaged
    with this casting circle!
[11:56] Zagan
    Nephy, run!
[11:58] Zagan
    All of you!
[12:01] Chastille
    What's happening?!
[12:09] Zagan
    What is this bizarre swell of mana?
[12:15] Zagan
    Barbatos, what were you trying to do here?!
[12:19] Barbatos
    I was planning on summoning... a true demon.
[12:23] Zagan
    A demon?!
SIGN    An Archdemon's Dilemma:
    How to Love Your Elf Bride
[12:47] Zagan
    Demons.
[12:49] Zagan
    They're said to have existed in this world
    in ancient times before leaving it.
[12:54] Zagan
    There's no proof they ever actually existed,
[12:57] Zagan
    but there are theories that the symbols used
    in sorcery, as well as those of the Church,
[13:01] Zagan
    were passed down to
    mortals by gods or devils.
[13:06] Zagan
    And you were able to summon one of them?!
[13:21] Zagan
    This is... a "shadow."
[13:24] Zagan
    No sacrifice and a haphazard activation
    must've resulted in an imperfect summoning.
[13:29] Zagan
    And in spite of that...
[13:36] Zagan
    It's over.
[13:38] Zagan
    We can't win.
[13:40] Zagan
    Even when I was facing down the Archdemons,
    the pressure wasn't this intense.
[13:46] Zagan
    This thing... is beyond humankind.
[13:50] Zagan
    No matter how much power we might gain,
[13:52] Zagan
    it looks like mortals simply
    can't compare to gods and demons.
[14:00] Zagan
    Am I going to die?
[14:07] Demon Shadow
    My king... by your command...
[14:15] Zagan
    It's... bowing to me?
[14:19] Zagan
    Wait, no.
[14:21] Zagan
    The Archdemon emblem?
[14:24] Zagan
    What exactly have I inherited?
[14:27] Zagan
    In that case, take your leave!
[14:32] Zagan
    Begone! This is no place for you.
[14:44] Zagan
    It's going back... to some other place.
[14:46] Zagan
    Wherever they all dwell, most likely.
[15:05] Zagan
    Not good! The cave is collapsing!
[15:08] Zagan
    Nephy!
[15:09] Nephy
    Master!
[15:12] Nephy
    Hang on, Miss Chastille!
[15:14] Zagan
    Get onto my back!
[15:18] Zagan
    You too, come on!
[15:28] 3 Knights
    Lady Chastille!
[15:29] 3 Knights
    Lady Chastille!
[15:35] Alfred
    Lady Chastille! I'm so
    relieved you're all right!
[15:40] Torres
    Listen well! Our priority is ensuring
    Lady Chastille and the citizens are safe!
[15:44] Torres
    It's not like we're aiding and
     abetting some wicked sorcerer!
[15:49] Zagan
    Fine. Just go.
[15:51] Torres
    You're just brushing us off?!
[15:52] Ryan
    Torres, let's just go.
[15:54] Torres
    The guy's got a serious attitude problem.
[15:57] Manuela
    Mister Sorcerer, thank you for saving us!
[16:01] Manuela
    You two need to work this out, okay?
[16:06] Manuela
    See you around, Nephy!
[16:10] Zagan
    So...
[16:11] Zagan
    Do you want to keep fighting, Barbatos?
[16:16] Barbatos
    After what I just saw?
    What the hell could I do?
[16:24] Barbatos
    So... what now?
[16:27] Barbatos
    I bring you some good booze,
    and you let me off the hook?
[16:30] Zagan
    Yeah. Make sure it's quality stuff.
[16:36] Barbatos
    Yeah, okay.
SIGN    Gasp!
[16:48] Zagan
    We're alone!
[16:50] Zagan
    What do I do? What should I say to her...
[16:52] Nephy
    Master.
[16:55] Nephy
    I would like to remain at your side.
[16:59] Zagan
    Are you sure? You don't have to...
[17:04] Nephy
    I want to be with you, Master.
[17:07] Zagan
    Well... you've become stronger, haven't you?
[17:11] Zagan
    But some things will have to change.
[17:18] Zagan
    There's something I need to tell her.
[17:20] Zagan
    I hurt you, Nephy, but I won't
    ever leave you alone again.
[17:25] Zagan
    I swear to protect you. So...
[17:29] Zagan
    I want you to call me by
    my name, not "Master."
[17:33] Zagan
    Not a slave, or my servant, or my apprentice.
[17:36] Zagan
    I want something else for us!
[17:39] Nephy
    Y-You mean...
[17:41] Zagan
    I'm saying... I...
[17:46] Zagan
    l...
[17:48] Zagan
    lo...
[17:50] Zagan
    Ugh!
[17:52] Zagan
    You belong to me!
[17:54] Zagan
    And you always will! Forever!
    Until one of us dies!
[17:57] Zagan
    No, even after that!
[18:07] Zagan
    Why can't I say something
    as simple as "I love you"?!
[18:14] Nephy
    Yes!
[18:15] Zagan
    Nephy... smiled.
[18:21] Nephy
    Could you please put this back on me?
[18:25] Zagan
    No, that's a bad idea. It's a slave collar.
[18:28] Nephy
    But I want it. Considering
    it's how Master and I...
[18:33] Nephy
    How Lord Zagan and
    I first became connected.
[18:37] Zagan
    Very well.
[18:42] Zagan
    It's a bit imposing for an
    engagement ring, but,
[18:46] Zagan
    I suppose this still makes us...
[18:58] Nephy
    Um, Lord Zagan?
[19:01] Nephy
    What exactly is our relationship if I'm not
    your slave, servant, or apprentice anymore?
[19:08] Zagan
    I wish I knew!
[19:12] Zagan
    Could someone please tell me?
[19:20] Zagan
    I'm an Archdemon with a dilemma...
[19:23] Zagan
    How do I love my elf bride?
[19:31] Townperson A
    Hey, did you hear? There's a new Archdemon!
[19:34] Townsperson B
    Yeah, the sorcerer that lives
    in the Lost Woods, right?
[19:37] Townsperson B
    With the scary face.
[19:38] townsperson C
    But he's supposed to be a decent sort.
[19:41] Townperson D
    Yeah, I heard he saved
    someone from some brigands.
[19:45] Kimaris
    Everyone's talking about the new Archdemon.
[19:49] Gremory
    A toast to the newly crowned
    young Archdemon, then.
[19:52] Kimaris
    It doesn't bother you?
[19:54] Kimaris
    I had thought you were certain to be
     the next Archdemon, Gremory.
[19:58] Gremory
    Hardly.
[20:00] Kimaris
    Try not to get too drunk so early in the day.
[20:03] Gremory
    Just you watch, Kimaris.
[20:06] Gremory
    Things are going to change around here.
[20:09] Townsperson E
    If he's replacing Marchosias, does that
    mean he's the new lord of Kianoides?
[20:14] Townsperson F
    I've seen him come to town to shop in person,
    even though he's an Archdemon.
[20:18] Townsperson G
    And he's always got a beautiful elf with him.
[20:21] Townperson H
    Oh, right!
[20:22] Townperson H
    Is that his girlfriend? Or maybe his wife?
[20:26] Townperson H
    Oh, sorry!
[20:30] Townperson G
    Watch it, idiot!
[20:35] Clavwell
    And you won't reconsider?
[20:38] Chastille
    No, sir.
[20:39] Clagvwell
    You refuse to lead the hunt for
    the 13th Archdemon, Zagan?
[20:44] Chastille
    He's saved my life twice.
[20:47] Chastille
    I cannot betray that.
[20:49] Chastille
    Cardinal Clavwell.
[20:51] Chastille
    As I've testified, he was not involved
    in the string of kidnappings.
[20:55] Chastille
    He is innocent.
[20:57] Clavwell
    You'd defend a sorcerer?
[20:59] Clavwell
    Such words carry grave weight.
[21:03] Chastille
    I am aware.
[21:04] Clavwell
    I see. In that case...
[21:07] Clavwell
    Chastille Lillqvist.
[21:10] Clavwell
    You are hereby relieved of your position
    as an Angelic Knight indefinitely.
[21:15] Chastille
    They care more about censuring their
    own than dealing with the Archdemons.
[21:19] Chastille
    It seems the Church has hit a new low.
[21:24] Alfred
    Please, Cardinal Clavwell!
    This punishment is too much!
[21:27] Torres
    We ask that you consider
    Lady Chastille's past accomplishments!
[21:31] Ryan
    And the loss of one of the
     Sacred Swords during the ascent
[21:36] Ryan
    of a new Archdemon will only sow chaos!
[21:39] Chastille
    Enough, you three!
[21:45] Chastille
    That man never once strayed
    from what he believed in.
[21:54] Chastille
    I want to be able to do the same!
