[00:22] Takuto     What? [00:25] Takuto     What's going on? [00:32] Takuto     Where am I? [00:42] Takuto     The air smells so fresh. [00:44] Atou     Are you awake? [00:48] Takuto     Huh? [00:53] Takuto     Is that you, [00:54] Takuto     Atou? [00:57] Atou     Yes, my king. [02:37] Takuto     The game I played in my sickbed [02:40] Takuto     was a 4X strategy game set     in a dark fantasy world, SIGN    m 0 0 l 250 0 250 113 0 113 SIGN    m 0 0 l 150 0 150 2 0 2 SIGN    Sludge Atou SIGN    Combat Unit SIGN    Strength: 3 Movement: 1      Ruin Affinity +2      Darkness Affinity +1      Chaos Affinity +1      Evil Hero Zealot SIGN    °This unit has a set chance of obtaining the abilities      of units it defeats. SIGN    Description SIGN    Atou is one of Mynoghra's Hero units.      Though she is extremely weak at the start of the game,      and in certain circumstances proves inferior to even     common units, she possesses powerful affinities that     more than make up for that.      Furthermore, she is able to acquire the abilities of     defeated units, granting her the greatest potential for      growth amongst all Hero units. [02:45] Takuto     Eternal Nations.* [02:47] Takuto*     The character I loved the most     from that game I loved the most, [02:52] Takuto     was this woman: [02:54] Takuto     Atou. [02:55] Atou     King. [02:57] Takuto     W-What should I do?! [02:59] Takuto     Should I act the part? [03:00] Takuto     If she's calling me king, [03:01] Takuto     then I think she means     the leader of Mynoghra... [03:05] Atou     It's all right, King Takuto. [03:10] Atou     You're the one who achieved the     feat of clearing nightmare difficulty! [03:13] Atou     All while using the civilization said to be the most     difficult to handle, the Civilization of Ruin, [03:17] Atou     Mynoghra. SIGN    Mynoghra SIGN    Atou SIGN    Ira Takuto [03:18] Atou     You're the legendary player proudly shining     at the top of the official user rankings, [03:23] Atou     Ira Takuto! [03:24] Takuto     Huh?! H-How?! [03:27] Atou     I remember everything too. [03:30] Atou     Everything you said to me, [03:33] Atou     how we conquered the world     together many times, [03:36] Atou     how we hit a game over many times... [03:39] Atou     I remember it all. [03:42] Atou     So please don't worry. [03:43] Atou     I remember you, King Takuto. [03:49] Takuto     You... [03:51] Takuto     Using you was my play style. [03:55] Takuto     Maybe because I hoped I could     become strong like you did. [03:59] Takuto     I'm so happy I can actually talk to you. [04:02] Atou     Me too. [04:04] Atou     Being to able to talk with     you is an unexpected joy. [04:08] Takuto     Is this heaven? [04:10] Takuto     Did you summon me here? [04:12] Atou     No. [04:13] Atou     I found myself here in the blink of an eye. [04:16] Atou     I've concluded that this isn't quite heaven. [04:20] Atou     If I had to say, it feels more... [04:24] Atou     similar to the world of Eternal Nations. [04:28] Takuto     An unfamiliar world? [04:31] Atou     Would it be cliché to call this a miracle? [04:35] Atou     Still, [04:36] Atou     I'm just so happy to finally     meet you in person, King Takuto. [04:42] Atou     King Takuto, shall we get     started together once more? [04:46] Takuto     Huh? [04:47] Atou     We don't know where we are. [04:49] Atou     Is this the world of Eternal Nations? [04:51] Atou     Perhaps the world that you're from? [04:54] Atou     Maybe it's an entirely different world. [04:57] Atou     But just as we've done     all those times before, [05:01] Atou     let's get started together. [05:03] Atou     Let's build a kingdom just for me and you! [05:06] Takuto     A kingdom... [05:08] Takuto     I have no idea what's going on here. [05:11] Takuto     I don't know even know where "here" is. [05:15] Takuto     But since we're together, let's do it again. [05:19] Takuto     Let's recreate those bright     days in this world. [05:24] Takuto     Atou. [05:25] Atou     Yes, my king? [05:28] Takuto     Let's build our civilization. [05:30] Takuto     A kingdom just for me and you! [05:36] Atou     My name is Sludge Atou, the child born from     the sludge that will destroy the world. [05:41] Atou     From this moment on, my body     and mind are yours to command. SIGN    Ira Takuto SIGN    Mynoghra SIGN    Alignment SIGN    Evil SIGN    Difficulty [05:44] Atou     Now, let us sink as low as     we can together, my king! [05:53] Takuto     Man, doing this is kind of embarrassing, huh? [05:55] Atou     It was a little embarrassing for me too. [06:03] Takuto     Well then, my one and only subordinate, [06:06] Takuto     my confidante and right-hand woman! [06:08] Takuto     Our civilization is lauded     as the most evil nation of all, [06:11] Takuto     while being finicky and      hyper-specialized in domestic affairs, [06:13] Takuto     so you know what our Mynoghra [06:15] Takuto     must do first, right? [06:17] Atou     Of course, my king! [06:20] Takuto     We're becoming shut-ins! [06:21] Atou     Let's close ourselves off! [06:23] Both     Yeah! [06:26] Takuto     Emergency Production! Scout! SIGN    Emergency     Production SIGN    Scout Unit     Long-legged Bug [06:38] Takuto     Disgusting. [06:39] Atou     So disgusting. [06:41] Takuto     Our Mynoghra is a mild-mannered     civilization that governs evil and ruin. [06:46] Takuto     So we have to first keep that     in mind as we take action. [06:48] Atou     Meaning we want to avoid others     discovering us as much as possible. [06:52] Atou     That's our iron-clad rule in the early game! [06:54] Takuto     That's right! We need to gather information     without being discovered by anyone. [06:59] Takuto     All right, Long-legged Bug! [07:01] Takuto     I'm giving you orders as a subordinate     of the glorious Mynoghra! [07:05] Takuto     Go check out the area around us. [07:08] Atou     Do not disappoint your     great king, Ira Takuto, [07:11] Atou     and see that you complete your mission. [07:17] Atou     I was a little concerned, [07:19] Atou     but it seems to be functioning as     a proper unit under my command. [07:22] Takuto     Yeah. [07:23] Takuto     It seems I can share its vision to some     extent too, just like in the game. [07:28] Takuto     That expended 100 Mana, so we have 100 left. SIGN    Emergency     Production SIGN    100 MP Expended [07:31] Takuto     Building a Settlement to serve as our     initial base will consume 20 Mana. SIGN    Planned SIGN    Starting Settlement      20 MP Expended [07:35] Atou     Emergency Production does have a high cost. [07:38] Atou     We can't afford to waste any more. [07:41] Takuto     Honestly, I wanted to produce a     Warrior that could fight for us, SIGN    Warrior [07:44] Takuto     but that wasn't an option with our Mana. [07:47] Atou     I'll just fight hard if we face combat! [07:50] Atou     Or so I would like to say, but... [07:52] Takuto     The Hero unit, Atou, will grow     stronger as time passes, [07:57] Takuto     but your current Strength is 3. [07:59] Takuto     That means that right now, Mynoghra is     in the incredibly risky position where [08:03] Takuto     any encounter with a powerful enemy     could mean its complete destruction. [08:10] Takuto     The difficulty's high. [08:12] Atou     Please cheer up, my king. [08:19] Atou     How is it going? [08:20] Takuto     Well. [08:21] Takuto     I've been able to grasp     the surrounding terrain. [08:24] Takuto     Though it's all forest. [08:27] Takuto     It hasn't encountered any     animals or monsters either. [08:30] Atou     Forest Terrain is perfect for hiding in. [08:33] Atou     Though it's quite odd that     there aren't any animals. [08:35] Takuto     There isn't anything to serve as food either, [08:38] Takuto     but I'll keep scouting for a while. [08:42] Atou     I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. [08:46] Takuto     It's fine. [08:46] Takuto     Just having you here with me is nice. [08:52] Atou     M-My king! [08:54] Atou     I'm incredibly moved right now! [08:57] Takuto     Y-Yeah? [08:58] Takuto     I'm glad. [09:00] Takuto     It was hard to tell in the game, [09:02] Takuto     but I guess this is what     Atou's personality is like? [09:07] Takuto     A community of Dark Elves? [09:11] Takuto     It's not that far from here. [09:13] Takuto     I can see several gathered together. [09:18] Atou     I suppose that means this is a fantasy world? [09:22] Atou     Dark Elves tend to be neutral,     but lean neutral evil, [09:25] Atou     so that's a bit of a relief. [09:27] Takuto     Do you think this is the world     of Eternal Nations after all? [09:31] Takuto     If there's another civilization's     Settlement, then that's bad for us. [09:35] Takuto     We want to avoid war if possible, [09:37] Takuto     which is why we want to     stay hidden at the start. [09:39] Atou     Being neighbors to another civilization [09:42] Atou     would be most troubling. [09:44] Takuto     It'd be a shitty starting position for sure. [09:46] Atou     If that proves true, then     let's flee together. [09:48] Takuto     True. [09:49] Takuto     Mynoghra loves peace and harmony, after all. [09:52] Atou     Yes. [09:53] Atou     War is barbaric anyway. [09:58] Takuto     First, let's observe these Dark Elves while     gathering more information on our surroundings. [09:58] Atou     Clap, clap. [10:02] Takuto     If we're not in luck,     then let's run far away. [10:04] Atou     It'll be just us, fleeing together! [10:06] Atou     As you wish, my king! [10:20] Takuto     Dark Elves?! [10:32] Gia     There's really nothing here? [10:35] (Flashback) Subordinate     Head Warrior Gia, [10:37] (Flashback) Subordinate     I think we should leave the Accursed Lands... [10:39] (Flashback) Gia     What good would leaving the forest now do? [10:42] (Flashback) Gia     We've been driven off of our land, [10:44] (Flashback) Gia     and we have nowhere left to go. [10:47] (Flashback) Gia     I can't imagine our children will     be able to last much longer. [10:50] (Flashback) Gia     This place is so abundant with vegetation. [10:52] (Flashback) Gia     There has to be food here. [10:54] (Flashback) Emle     At the edge of Idoragya’s Uncharted Territory [10:58] (Flashback) Emle     lies a vast, cursed forest— [10:59] (Flashback) Emle     the Accursed Lands. [11:01] (Flashback) Emle     It's written in our books that something     evil was sealed away in those lands. [11:06] (Flashback) Emle     Whatever that is would never     allow life to flourish. [11:11] (Flashback) Gia     That's just superstition, Emle. [11:13] (Flashback) Gia     You can see how well the     trees are growing here. [11:17] (Flashback) Gia     Don't give up. [11:18] (Flashback) Gia     You can't let yourself give up. [11:20] (Flashback) Gia     Our proud spirit and the     ghosts of our ancestors [11:23] (Flashback) Gia     are sure to show us the way     to overcome this hardship. [11:28] (Flashback) All     Yes! [11:31] Gia     It certainly is a creepy forest, though. [11:34] Gia     "Something evil," huh? [11:36] Gia     I can't leave over a reason like that. [11:39] Gia     My people are waiting for me. [11:41] Gia     Those of us who can still     move have to find food. [11:50] Gia     This is bad! [11:53] Gia     That creature's no good! [11:56] Gia     It's the manifestation of evil! [11:59] Gia     My actions could affect the     fate of my entire tribe. [12:04] Gia     I must be careful. [12:11] Gia     I am a Dark Elf of the Mazaram Clan, [12:14] Gia     the head warrior, Gia Nageeve! [12:18] Gia     I see that you are a highly     esteemed individual! [12:20] Gia     So first, please allow me to apologize for     entering your forest without permission! [12:25] Atou     Good. It seems you have sufficient     understanding of what it means to enter these lands, [12:30] Atou     dark fae. [12:31] Atou     So, what reason compelled you     to commit such trespass? [12:37] Gia     My clan of Dark Elves, the Mazaram Clan, [12:41] Gia     once resided in the central     lands of Idoragya. [12:46] Gia     However, our former leaders, the highest     authority of the elves, the Tetrarchy Council— [12:47] Gia     I'm a little relieved they     seem to understand me. [12:55] Atou     Keep it brief. [12:56] Gia     W-We were persecuted and     driven from our lands. [13:00] Gia     With nowhere else to go, we     made our way here... [13:02] Gia     Crap! [13:03] Gia     It was a mistake to try and portray     our circumstances in a better light! [13:08] Takuto     You're emaciated, aren't you? [13:11] Atou     My king is speaking to you. [13:13] Gia     Th-The persecution was intense, [13:16] Gia     and we came to this land to escape it. [13:18] Gia     We ran out of food along the way, and since     we wanted to throw off our pursuers, [13:22] Gia     we haven't been able to secure more food. [13:24] Gia     It's been several days     since we last ate anything. [13:30] Gia     Why?! [13:32] Gia     Why did we have to be put     through all this suffering?! [13:35] Gia     What did we ever do to deserve it?! [13:38] Gia     All we wanted was a place to live in peace! [13:42] Gia     Is our desire to live that great a crime?! [13:53] Gia     This sweet fragrance... [13:55] Takuto     They're yours. [13:58] Takuto     Are you familiar with apples? [14:00] Takuto     They're delicious when you     cut them in the shape of bunnies. [14:04] Gia     Apples? [14:06] Gia     No, they're different from any     fruit that I'm familiar with. [14:10] Gia     What do I do? [14:11] Gia     Would it be rude to sample     one right here? [14:14] Gia     Could I do that when our people     are waiting for our return? [14:18] Subordinate     It's good! [14:19] Emle     It's incredibly sweet! And juicy too! [14:23] Takuto     I have pears too. [14:24] Gia     Pears? [14:27] Atou     You there. [14:29] Atou     What's the matter? [14:31] Atou     My king is offering you his charity. [14:41] Gia     There are others like me     who have fled to this land. [14:44] Gia     We have small children with us. [14:47] Gia     The children—our children are starving. [14:50] Gia     They haven't eaten anything for days, [14:52] Gia     and they've all grown very thin. [14:54] Gia     This fruit that you have given     us in your generous mercy... [14:58] Gia     I would like to give it to our     children instead of myself. [15:03] Gia     Please. [15:05] Takuto     Poor things. [15:06] Atou     King Takuto?! [15:14] Gia     Dark Elves are scorned as beings     who have fled from the light. [15:18] Gia     They say we're only permitted to live thanks     to the mercy of the Elves, the Fae of Light. [15:24] Gia     We were subjected to that contempt and     forced to live in the shadows, away from the light. [15:30] Gia     No one ever reached out to     offer us a helping hand. [15:37] Takuto     It's yours. [15:39] Subordinate     It's a miracle! [15:40] Subordinate     With this much food...! [15:41] Emle     Thank you so much! [15:42] Gia     Who exactly are you? [15:45] Takuto     It's yours. [15:52] Woman     Come on, hang in there. [15:54] Woman     Head Warrior Gia will     surely find food for us. [16:03] Woman     What is this scent? [16:06] Gia     I have returned! [16:08] Gia     I found food! [16:10] Gia     Prepare the food! [16:18] Mother     Thank goodness. [16:27] Woman     Where did you manage to get this much food? [16:30] Gia     I just happened to find it. [16:49] Moltar     You've done good work today. [16:53] Gia     Elder Moltar. [16:58] Moltar     The fruit you've brought     back with you is incredible. [17:02] Moltar     I'm confident that I've lived a long life, [17:04] Moltar     and even I'd never seen anything like it. [17:06] Gia     Yeah. [17:07] Gia     I sampled a little of it, and it's exquisite. [17:11] Gia     It's my first time learning that such     tasty fruit exists in this world. [17:15] Moltar     Did something happen? [17:22] Gia     I encountered a legendary     being deep in the forest. [17:26] Moltar     What kind of legend? [17:28] Gia     I remember Emle mentioned something [17:31] Gia     about some being that was sealed     away in the Accursed Lands? [17:34] Moltar     You met the King of Ruin?! [17:37] Gia     You know about him? [17:39] Moltar     Some of the legends and old books remain. [17:43] Moltar     "When the world reaches saturation, [17:46] Moltar     the King of Ruin will appear. [17:48] Moltar     He will bring ruin to any and all, [17:50] Moltar     forcing all to start over from scratch." [17:53] Moltar     It's unclear how true that may be, [17:55] Moltar     but I can't declare it a lie. [17:58] Moltar     Did he call himself that? [18:00] Gia     He didn't give a name. [18:02] Gia     But the King of Ruin, huh? [18:04] Gia     He was certainly terrifying     enough to warrant that name. [18:08] Moltar     Did you talk to this king? [18:10] Gia     No, the king... [18:12] Gia     was a being that seemed     beyond our understanding. [18:16] Gia     However, he had a young woman serving him. [18:19] Gia     She clarified the king's     words to some degree. [18:24] Moltar     I'm not sure if the being you     met was the King of Ruin. [18:29] Moltar     Though it's clear he's not something good. [18:33] Moltar     Now that I've filled my stomach and     recovered a bit of Mana, I can tell. [18:39] Moltar     This forest is abnormal. [18:42] Moltar     Perhaps I should have noticed sooner. [18:45] Moltar     Did you give him anything     in exchange for the food? [18:48] Gia     Nothing. [18:51] Moltar     Like an evil being would grant charity     without demanding anything in return. [18:55] Gia     I don't know. [18:57] Gia     I just explained our     situation when they asked. [18:59] Gia     That's all. [19:01] Moltar     Why would the King of Ruin do such a thing? [19:06] Gia     Grace. [19:07] Moltar     "Grace," you say? [19:10] Gia     Yeah, grace. [19:12] Gia     His Grace sympathized     with our situation [19:15] Gia     and granted us charity. [19:17] Moltar     You! [19:18] Moltar     Did you just call him "His Grace"? [19:21] Moltar     Have you been charmed by him?! [19:22] Gia     Absolutely not! [19:23] Moltar     Then why would you be so rash as     to call him "His Grace"?! [19:27] Moltar     That title is used to show respect! [19:30] Gia     His Grace granted us aid! [19:33] Gia     When we were starving! [19:35] Gia     It's only natural to show him respect! [19:37] Moltar     But we're talking about an evil being! [19:40] Gia     Then what?! [19:41] Gia     What was I supposed to do?! [19:43] Gia     We're only able to waste our     strength arguing like this [19:48] Gia     because His Grace filled our stomachs! [19:53] Gia     Hey, Elder Moltar. [19:55] Gia     What should I have done? [19:58] Moltar     Even I don't know the answer to that. [20:02] Moltar     I'm sorry, Gia, brave warrior of our tribe. [20:06] Moltar     You've done well. [20:09] Moltar     I'll handle negotiations with the     king as the leader of the Dark Elves. [20:14] Moltar     I've been alive for two centuries now. [20:17] Moltar     I'll figure something out. [20:19] Gia     Please do. [20:21] Moltar     I wonder when we'll be able     to spend our nights in peace. [20:30] Gia     I wonder when, too. [20:34] Atou     King Takuto, sit up straight! [20:37] Atou     How could you use our scarce     Mana on something like that?! [20:41] Takuto     I-I just felt bad for them... [20:44] Atou     Not good enough! [20:46] Atou     We just got Mynoghra started. [20:48] Atou     We don't even know what's     going on around us yet. [20:51] Atou     Hmph! [20:51] Takuto     I'm sorry for using our Mana without asking. [20:55] Takuto     Atou, please stop being mad. [20:56] Atou     Hmph! It's not like I'm mad about it. [21:01] Takuto     Okay. Then I'll do anything you ask of me. [21:05] Atou     "A-Anything" is going too far, isn't it? [21:09] Atou     You don't have to promise     that. I'm not really... [21:14] Takuto     I need you, Atou. [21:17] Atou     I'm sorry for saying such mean things! [21:19] Atou     I'm a failure of a subordinate for voicing     dissent about my great king's decision! [21:24] Atou     Please command whatever you wish from me! [21:26] Takuto     Yeah... [21:27] Takuto     Actually, um... [21:30] Takuto     I wasn't able to speak with     those Dark Elves very well. [21:33] Atou     Huh?! [21:34] Takuto     I'm able to talk to you just fine, [21:37] Takuto     but the words just won't come out [21:39] Takuto     when I'm in front of others. [21:42] Atou     I thought that was just you     role-playing the idea that [21:45] Atou     the strong disdain long speeches and leave     the detailed negotiations to their subordinates? [21:50] Takuto     Apparently, I'm just awkward. [21:54] Atou     My king! [21:54] Takuto     That reminds me... I don't recall any nice chats     with the nurses or doctors at the hospital either... [21:56] Atou     Please don't cry! [21:58] Atou     It's just, you know, you stand above it! [21:59] Takuto     and I rarely had the chance     to chat with anyone... [21:59] Atou     Kings are meant to stand above the masses! [22:01] Atou     They typically only talk with     subordinates that they trust!

Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) [00:01] Moltar     "When the world reaches saturation, [00:04] Moltar     the King of Ruin will appear. [00:07] Moltar     He will bring ruin to any and all, [00:11] Moltar     forcing all to start over from scratch." [00:21] Moltar     Are you prepared     to return to the king? [00:24] Gia     Yeah. [00:26] Moltar     We've already accepted charity     from the King of Ruin. [00:30] Moltar     We don't know what he'll     demand in return later. [00:34] Gia     No way. He never said anything about that. [00:37] Moltar     Can you be certain he won't? [00:39] Moltar     An evil being demanding recompense     is just the way of the world. [00:44] Moltar     However, it's also true [00:46] Moltar     that we must borrow the king's     power in order to survive. [00:50] Gia     Yeah. [00:51] Gia     Even if we were to leave this forest, [00:53] Gia     we'd just be going back to our vagabond life     and struggling to find tomorrow's meal. [00:57] Gia     If we did that, then eventually... [00:59] Moltar     We came to the Dark Continent [01:01] Moltar     in search of a realm where     we wouldn't be persecuted, [01:05] Moltar     but this might be our last chance. [01:10] Moltar     Let's go. [01:11] Moltar     The fate of our people [01:13] Moltar     rests on our shoulders. SIGN    Let's Announce the Founding of Mynoghra [02:59] Atou     Long-legged Bug, [03:01] Atou     I'm in the middle of     speaking with King Takuto. [03:03] Takuto     Oh, I ordered it to return to us for a bit. [03:09] Takuto     I see. [03:10] Takuto     Apparently, the Dark Elves are coming. [03:13] Atou     Yeah. [03:14] Atou     The food you provided them before was too     much for them to take home all at once. [03:19] Takuto     Having people with a different     culture and ideology nearby [03:22] Takuto     can lead to conflict. [03:24] Takuto     I'd love to have them take the remaining     food and leave promptly, but... [03:28] Atou     Is there something concerning you? [03:31] Takuto     Well... [03:32] Takuto     I'm bad at communicating, [03:34] Takuto     so I'm not sure I'll be able     to handle negotiations well. [03:37] Atou     King Takuto.... [03:39] Atou     Then I'll take charge of     the negotiations for you! [03:43] Atou     That would help show off your     majesty as our king as well! [03:47] Takuto     I'm grateful for the offer, [03:48] Takuto     but are you sure? [03:50] Atou     If you need anything, all     you have to do is ask. [03:52] Atou     Or do you think I'm not     capable of handling it? [03:55] Takuto     No, I'd never think that. [03:57] Takuto     I'm counting on you, Atou. [03:59] Atou     Your wish is my command, my king. [04:03] Moltar     We're truly grateful that you have granted     us the honor of an audience. [04:09] Moltar     I am the Elder of the Dark     Elves, Moltar Cordal Mazaram. [04:15] Atou     Good. It seems you know how     to show proper respect. [04:18] Atou     You have something you wish to say, yes? [04:20] Atou     Then speak now. [04:22] Moltar     Yes. [04:23] Moltar     I offer you our greatest gratitude     for granting my people food. [04:28] Moltar     May I please ask for the honor     of knowing your great name? [04:33] Atou     His name, you say? [04:40] Atou     Ira Takuto, the Lord of     the Apocalypse, Ruler of Ruin! [04:44] Atou     That is his grand, esteemed name! [04:46] Atou     Be sure to address him as     King Ira or King Ira Takuto! [04:51] Atou     Also, my name is Atou. [04:54] Atou     I'm of lesser status than King Takuto, [04:57] Atou     so be sure not to use the same title with me. [05:00] Moltar     King Ira Takuto, Lady Atou. [05:02] Moltar     I promise we will engrave your esteemed     names into the souls of our people. [05:09] Takuto     It seems like things are going well so far. [05:12] Atou     Then you may take your food and leave. [05:15] Atou     Much of it will not keep for long, after all. [05:17] Moltar     P-Please wait! [05:19] Moltar     How can we repay you for your king's     great kindness in saving our people? [05:24] Atou     That's unnecessary. [05:25] Atou     I doubt you would be capable of preparing     an offering that would satisfy my king, [05:30] Atou     and you lack the resources to do so, yes? [05:32] Moltar     W-Well... [05:36] Atou     What an indecisive attitude. [05:38] Atou     Are you plotting something? [05:42] Moltar     H-Heavens no! [05:45] Takuto     Things are looking incredibly bad now. [05:49] Takuto     Atou, a moment. [05:51] Atou     Yes, King Takuto! [05:53] Takuto     About our negotiations... [05:58] Atou     King Takuto! [06:00] Atou     Those two suck at negotiations! [06:04] Takuto     Now, now. [06:05] Atou     If we leave them alone,     they'll just get in your way! [06:08] Atou     We should massacre them at once! [06:09] Atou     Their necks would look great strung     up on pillars, King Takuto! [06:14] Takuto     Hold on, hold on! [06:16] Takuto     Look... [06:17] Takuto     I'm sure they want to build a     mutually beneficial relationship. [06:21] Atou     Mutually beneficial, you say? [06:24] Takuto     Yeah. [06:25] Takuto     Let's accept a price     they'd be satisfied with [06:27] Takuto     instead of just granting it for nothing. [06:30] Takuto     I think that would reassure them as well. [06:36] Atou     Rejoice! [06:37] Atou     My king has said he is willing to accept     your offering in exchange for his charity. [06:43] Gia     Oh! [06:45] Moltar     We're grateful for your     generous consideration. [06:48] Takuto     How interesting. [06:50] Takuto     That old man was wary that     there was some kind of catch [06:53] Takuto     because our alignment is evil. [06:57] Atou     I see. [06:59] Atou     What a fool you are. [07:01] Atou     Thinking of King Takuto as one would     a wicked ghost or an evil specter. [07:05] Moltar     N-No! I would never do such a thing! [07:08] Atou     Silence! [07:09] Atou     Still, what price? [07:12] Atou     A price... [07:13] Atou     A price... [07:16] Atou     What do I do, King Takuto? [07:21] Takuto     The world beyond... [07:24] Atou     You shall tell us of the     world beyond this forest! [07:27] Atou     That is what the king desires! [07:28] Moltar     Oh! [07:29] Moltar     In that case, I shall offer to share all     that I have heard and witnessed myself! [07:35] Atou     Very good. [07:36] Atou     Then once your pact has been fulfilled, [07:38] Atou     be sure to leave this forest promptly. [07:42] Takuto     He's shaken. [07:44] Takuto     This one's much easier     to read than the old man. [07:48] Moltar     Nothing would grant us more     joy than receiving permission [07:51] Moltar     to stay in this forest     where the king presides. [07:54] Atou     We cannot permit that. [07:56] Atou     Furthermore, if you do not wish to     lose the lives that have been saved, [07:59] Atou     then you will not speak of     what happened here to others. [08:02] Gia     But we—! [08:03] Moltar     Gia. [08:04] Moltar     If that is what the king wishes, [08:06] Moltar     then we shall simply obey. [08:10] Moltar     Then, mighty King Ira Takuto, [08:13] Moltar     I offer our gratitude for     granting us this audience. [08:21] Takuto     Is this the right thing to do? [08:23] Takuto     If I cast them out like this, [08:25] Takuto     there's a good chance they'll     just collapse elsewhere. [08:28] Takuto     There has to be a way to overcome this. [08:32] Takuto     I know! [08:33] Takuto     Hey, you two. [08:37] Takuto     You should become my citizens. [08:41] Atou     U-Uh... [08:42] Atou     I'll consult with my king! [08:46] Atou     Wh-What are you trying to do? [08:49] Takuto     I was thinking of using the Refugee system. [08:52] Atou     Huh?! [08:53] Takuto     Dark Elves are neither good     nor evil by default. [08:57] Takuto     But if we accept them into our     civilization as refugees...

[09:18] Atou     There's still a risk of them clashing. [09:20] Takuto     It's true, that's a risk. [09:22] Takuto     But I want you to remember. [09:24] Takuto     Remember how the Homunculi look.

[09:32] Atou     That's right. [09:33] Atou     It's impossible to hold a proper     conversation with the Homunculi too. [09:36] Atou     That appearance is bad for the mind as well. [09:39] Takuto     So you see where I'm coming from? [09:40] Takuto     It'd be a big help if you     could convey it well for me. [09:45] Atou     Our king intends to found a nation here soon. [09:48] Atou     If you are willing to become its citizens, [09:50] Atou     then he will promise to safeguard you. [09:53] Moltar     P-Please forgive my rudeness, [09:56] Moltar     but what would become of us     if we become his citizens? [09:58] Atou     You would be promised eternal happiness. [10:01] Atou     Or so I would like to say, [10:03] Atou     but I imagine that is not     what you wish to know. [10:07] Atou     To be frank, [10:09] Atou     you would become evil beings.

[10:30] Atou     King Takuto, please watch your step. [10:33] Takuto     Thank you. [10:34] Takuto     I'm okay. [10:35] Atou     Still, it took them quite a     while to make up their minds [10:38] Atou     to become our citizens. [10:40] Takuto     Well, [10:42] Takuto     I think anyone would think it over if they were     told it would turn them into evil beings. [10:46] Atou     They knew from the start what     their best option would be though. [10:51] Atou     Oh, King Takuto, I can see it. [10:53] Atou     It's the Dark Elves' camp. [10:58] Moltar     Everyone! [10:59] Moltar     The king has arrived! [11:16] Gia     Don't look at him directly! [11:18] Gia     It's disrespectful! [11:22] Atou     My king, it seems all     the Dark Elves are here. [11:26] Atou     Now, we hereby accept all of you Dark Elves [11:30] Atou     as citizens of our nation, Mynoghra! SIGN    "Refugee" SIGN    Would you like to accept     this group of Dark Elves SIGN    into the nation of     Mynoghra SIGN    as refugees? [11:40] Atou     King Takuto, are you certain?

[12:13] Gia     They said we would become evil, [12:15] Gia     but I'm not sensing any changes— [12:21] Gia     I can feel the hatred rising     up from deep within me. [12:25] Gia     Those who persecuted us, hurt us, and     scoffed at us like we were worthless! [12:31] Emle     I hate them! [12:32] Emle     I hate them all!

[12:49] Takuto     Are you okay? [12:53] Gia     My king... [12:55] Gia     I see. [12:57] Gia     So this is the joy of being cared for. [13:02] Darkelves     King Ira Takuto!

[13:18] Takuto     A few days have passed since I     established the kingdom of Mynoghra. [13:25] Takuto     It's checkmate. [13:26] Atou     Huh? What's the matter, King Takuto? [13:29] Takuto     Look. [13:31] Atou     This is the map of the continent that     you received from Elder Moltar, right? [13:35] Atou     This is... [13:38] Takuto     We got such a shitty starting position! SIGN    El-Nah      Alliance of Elementals SIGN    Holy Kingdom of Qualia [13:42] Takuto     There are already two large     nations on this continent.

[13:52] Atou     Ugh, that means a hardcore     good alignment, doesn't it? SIGN    El-Nah      Alliance of Elementals [13:55] Atou     Ack, and this one is a nation     of Elves who worship nature. [13:58] Atou     That's also good-aligned for sure. [14:00] Takuto     If they manage to discover our evil nation... SIGN    Mynoghra [14:03] Atou     It'll be the cliche, "Good     day, sir. Now die!" won't it?! [14:06] Takuto     As Mynoghra stands now, [14:08] Takuto     we don't have the military strength     to oppose these two dominant nations. [14:12] Atou     King Takuto! [14:13] Atou     To make things worse, [14:15] Atou     these Accursed Lands don't have a single     natural resource we can harvest! [14:18] Takuto     I know! [14:19] Takuto     It's so bad that trying to express this     as a difficulty level is a fool's errand. [14:23] Takuto     Well, at least it's not all bad news. [14:25] Takuto     Normally, Mynoghra would     struggle to produce Research, right? [14:29] Atou     Our citizens, the Homunculi,     are fairly stupid after all. [14:33] Atou     Though it's good that their Fertility is high     and their Happiness doesn't decline easily. [14:37] Takuto     Uh-huh. Though this time, the Dark     Elves should help cover that weakness. [14:42] Atou     I see. [14:47] Atou     It would seem the Dark Elves are here     to report on the world beyond again. [14:54] Moltar     Good day to you, my king. [14:56] Moltar     Lady Atou as well. [14:58] Gia     My king, I, Gia, am here as well! [15:00] Gia     Today I have brought my aide, Emle, with me. [15:04] Emle     I'm Emle. [15:06] Gia     Emle is an intelligent woman, and knows much      about legends and about other nations. [15:10] Gia     I believe she'll be helpful. [15:13] Atou     Our king is very satisfied     with your dedication. [15:16] Moltar     Thank you! I am grateful for the praise. [15:19] Atou     You need not remain so formal. [15:22] Atou     Our king is not a fan of ceremony. [15:25] Moltar     If that is what our king wishes. [15:28] Atou     Now, on to our plans for the future... [15:31] Atou     We'll have you work in key positions     for the administration of Mynoghra. [15:36] Atou     This is our king's decision,     so it cannot be overturned. [15:40] Atou     Elder Moltar, you shall focus     on managing affairs of state. [15:43] Atou     We've heard you can use magic as well, [15:45] Atou     so we have great expectations. [15:46] Moltar     I accept this post. [15:48] Atou     Gia, you will continue     to serve as Head Warrior, [15:50] Atou     so please command Mynoghra's forces. [15:53] Atou     We leave recruiting up to you as well. [15:56] Gia     I accept this post! [15:57] Gia     If our king commands it, [15:59] Gia     I'll swiftly slaughter any foe, [16:01] Gia     skewer them, and line their     corpses up on display! [16:03] Takuto     What? That's scary. [16:06] Gia     Huh? [16:08] Takuto     War is barbaric. [16:10] Atou     Our king prefers peace. [16:12] Atou     Be sure to remember that! [16:14] Gia     Y-Yes! [16:16] Gia     Why would the King of Ruin be a pacifist? [16:22] Atou     First, be sure to get plenty of rest. [16:24] Atou     Once your health has recovered, [16:26] Atou     we'll have you start constructing homes. [16:29] Moltar     You have our deepest gratitude. [16:31] Moltar     Unlike Gia, who only prides     himself on strength, [16:34] Moltar     my knowledge shall prove useful at once. [16:37] Moltar     Hmph! [16:38] Gia     That damn old man! [16:40] Gia     U-Unlike this old man, I'm     brimming with vitality! [16:46] Gia     I don't need any rest! [16:47] Emle     I-I'll work hard too! [16:49] Atou     Hmm. [16:50] Atou     King Takuto, it would     seem they're workaholics. [16:54] Atou     Shall we command them to     gather resources for now? [16:57] Takuto     Hmm... [16:58] Takuto     I know! [16:59] Takuto     What about improving the Terrain? [17:02] Atou     Right! There was that option! [17:04] Atou     Elder Moltar, would it possible      for you to procure lumber [17:08] Atou     while leaving enough of the forest intact? [17:10] Moltar     Leave that to me. [17:11] Moltar     We're also a people who     make the forest our home. [17:14] Moltar     If you're planning to construct     buildings using big trees, [17:18] Moltar     then I believe we can     fulfill our king's wishes. [17:20] Takuto     Oh! [17:22] Atou     That's quite promising to hear. [17:24] Gia     He's the King of Ruin, [17:26] Gia     and he's not destroying the forest? [17:29] Takuto     Work hard! [17:30] Takuto     Don't forget to Reforest it too! [17:34] Gia     I'd like to ask a question. [17:36] Gia     What manner of action is Reforesting? [17:39] Atou     Huh? You don't know about Reforesting? [17:42] Atou     Elder Moltar? Emle?

SIGN    Agriculture SIGN    Six Major Elements SIGN    Reforesting [18:19] Atou     I guess this world hasn't even reached the     Magic Technology level of the Six Major Elements. [18:23] Takuto     They're oddly behind     compared to their other technologies. [18:27] Moltar     Does this mean... [18:28] Moltar     that our magic technology is far poorer     than our king thought it would be? [18:33] Atou     Exactly right. [18:35] Atou     Though, on the other hand, [18:36] Atou     that also means we have a chance to get     ahead of other nations once we advance it. [18:40] Moltar     Oh my! [18:41] Atou     Whoops, I'm getting off track. [18:44] Atou     Reforesting is the practice of planting     trees where you harvested lumber [18:47] Atou     in order to maintain the environment. [18:49] Atou     It's an important step to secure resources. [18:52] Emle     I don't believe our magic technology     has anything to do with growing trees? [18:57] Moltar     True, it usually takes several centuries     for them to mature once harvested. [19:04] Moltar     Are you suggesting... [19:05] Atou     Yes. [19:06] Atou     Reforesting is a technology that uses the     major elements to accelerate their growth. [19:11] Atou     And this is also [19:13] Atou     wisdom born from our mighty     king, King Ira Takuto! [19:16] Takuto     Huh?! [19:17] Moltar     Truly?! [19:18] Atou     Yes! [19:19] Atou     Our king is a hundred times more     incredible than you imagine! [19:23] Takuto     Th-That's a huge lie!

[19:36] Takuto     My stomach hurts from the pressure. [19:39] Emle     Then the apples we received earlier     are food our king created too?! [19:43] Atou     Yes! Yes, they are! [19:46] Atou     I especially love the grapes     created by our king! [19:49] Takuto     You're cut off from grapes for a while! [19:52] Emle     Oh, grapes! That purple fruit, right?! [19:56] Emle     They had seeds, so I tried planting them, [19:57] Emle     and they're already sprouting! [19:59] Emle     I can't wait until they're fully grown! [20:02] Atou     Umm, did you say you planted the grape seeds? [20:05] Atou     And they've sprouted? [20:07] Emle     U-Uh? [20:10] Takuto     That's right! [20:11] Takuto     Why didn't I notice it sooner? [20:14] Takuto     The food I created     was from the modern world! [20:17] Takuto     That means I can use Emergency Production to     create things that didn't exist in the game! [20:24] Takuto     Emergency Production! [20:30] Takuto     I knew it! [20:33] Takuto     With this power, I can create     gunpowder, base metals, and even oil. [20:38] Takuto     It requires vast amounts of Mana, [20:42] Takuto     but it's obvious how overpowered that is! [20:51] Emle     U-Umm, was that a bad thing? [20:55] Atou     No, it was something we overlooked. [20:58] Atou     You've truly done good work.

[00:13] Paladin     I've heard that the saint     possesses a special power, [00:17] Paladin     but it really doesn't seem that way to me. [00:19] Paladin     You'll understood soon. SIGN    Your Holiness, hurry! [00:38] Soalina     The time for you to repent has now passed. [00:42] Soalina     For the crime of disrupting the     peace of the Holy Kingdom of Qualia, [00:46] Soalina     and the sin of forsaking the Holy God Arlos, [00:49] Soalina     you are sentenced to a blooming burial. SIGN    Some saint. SIGN    More like an ultimate weapon. [01:14] Paladin     H-How on earth?! [01:18] Paladin     That power is part of why our nation [01:21] Paladin     is able to stave off evil and     maintain a proper relationship [01:25] Paladin     with the nation of Elves.

SIGN    The Time for Domestic Affairs Has Come! [04:20] Atou     Now, everyone! It's time for     some fun, fun construction! [04:24] All     Yeah! [04:34] Atou     King Takuto, what's the matter? [04:36] Takuto     This is nice, isn't it? [04:38] Atou     The Dark Elves worked quickly to     establish this throne and council room. [04:44] Atou     We're just getting started too. [04:47] Atou     Let's make our civilization [04:48] Atou     powerful enough to dominate     the land and pierce the heavens! [04:53] Moltar     All of your national administrators     have assembled at your command. [04:59] Atou     Then let's begin the council. [05:02] Moltar     Before that... [05:04] Moltar     O great and mighty king,     please accept this offering. [05:07] Takuto     Huh? It's finished already?! [05:11] Takuto     Yes! [05:13] Takuto     I can finally get out of my pajamas! [05:14] Emle     We all worked hard to make it so you     could wear attire befitting a king. [05:20] Atou     King Takuto, it looks really good on you! [05:26] Atou     Our king is terribly delighted. [05:29] Emle     We're honored to hear that he likes it. [05:33] Atou     Yes! [05:34] Atou     Now, the long-awaited time for     domestic affairs has come! [05:46] Atou     For starters, we shall conduct our meeting,     consulting with the king as necessary. [05:52] Takuto     Yeah, I'm counting on you. [05:54] Moltar     So, Lady Atou, what buildings should     we start constructing first? [05:59] Gia     We've already started preparations like     leveling the ground and pruning the branches. [06:04] Atou     We'll create a Food Production facility. [06:06] Atou     No one can wage war on an empty stomach. [06:09] Atou     Not that we plan on waging any wars. [06:12] Moltar     Forgive me for asking, but can't our king     create an infinite amount with his power? [06:17] Atou     How long do you intend to make     our king do such a thing? [06:21] Atou     Plus, there's the issue of distribution     that will arise as we expand our domain. [06:25] Moltar     You're entirely right. [06:27] Moltar     Please forgive my shortsightedness. [06:30] Atou     So long as you understand. [06:33] Atou     Here. [06:34] FleshTree     Nice to meet you! [06:37] Moltar     Lady Atou, what's this? [06:41] Atou     A Flesh Tree! [06:43] Moltar     Huh? [06:44] Atou     It's a Flesh Tree! [06:49] Moltar     Um, could you explain in a bit more detail? [06:52] Atou     This is one of our civilization's     Food Production facilities. [06:57] Atou     It's a tree that grows mystery meat     that tastes like human flesh. [07:00] Atou     It produces a large harvest, [07:02] Atou     and it's technically meat, [07:03] Atou     so it's very nutritious. [07:06] Takuto     It feels evil. [07:08] Moltar     We understand. [07:10] Moltar     However, there are those who may harbor     ill feelings toward consuming human flesh. [07:14] Atou     We'll only be planting them to get started. [07:17] Takuto     Everyone has likes and dislikes after all. SIGN    You have selected a building for construction. SIGN    Constructing Flesh Tree [07:24] Atou     We'll also need a hut for managing it, [07:26] Atou     and a Building for stockpiling food. [07:29] Emle     I'll take charge of that. [07:31] FleshTree     Please be nice to me. [07:40] Atou     Next on the agenda is our Research. [07:43] Atou     Since we're still a minor nation, [07:46] Atou     we urgently need to acquire     the latest technology. [07:49] Moltar     So, Lady Atou, [07:51] Moltar     what technology should we prioritize first? [07:54] Atou     Magic Technology, obviously! [07:57] Takuto     Exciting! [08:00] Atou     You look excited, my king. [08:03] Moltar     I'm a bit of a scholar of magic     myself, so I'm excited too. [08:08] Moltar     So what kind of magic will we be researching? [08:12] Atou     Military Magic! [08:14] Atou     Normal magic can only be used to attack     a few dozen people at most, right? [08:19] Moltar     If I may humbly say so,     I can do that with ease. [08:24] Atou     Of course, Military Magic allows you to     attack armies on the scale of thousands, [08:28] Atou     as well as altering the     terrain to your advantage, [08:32] Atou     along with other strategic uses. [08:34] Moltar     There's magic capable of     producing such miracles?! [08:38] Atou     For this, we'll need to select a few who are     talented with magic to conduct the Research. [08:45] Takuto     It's not a very difficult Technology, [08:47] Takuto     so we should develop it quickly. [08:50] Moltar     The world of magic known by our king... [08:52] Moltar     You're getting my blood pumping! SIGN    You have selected your Research focus. SIGN    Researching Military Magic [09:02] Atou     Now then, that leaves our Military Planning. [09:05] Gia     It's my turn now! [09:07] Gia     First, we'll need to organize an army. [09:10] Takuto     For the time being, we won't be     putting too much effort into that. [09:16] Gia     I see... [09:18] Atou     Armies don't produce anything and just     consume Resources and Mana. [09:23] Gia     Pardon me for saying so, [09:25] Gia     but our current warrior band     lacks the strength to protect our king. [09:30] Moltar     To make matters worse,     embarrassing as it is to admit, [09:33] Moltar     both Gia and I have bounties on our heads     for being the leaders of the Dark Elves. [09:39] Atou     You're concerned about pursuers. [09:48] Takuto     Then let's create a Hero. [09:51] Atou     Great idea! [09:52] Atou     A Hero might have a high production cost, [09:55] Atou     but they have hardly any Upkeep,     which makes them perfect! [09:58] Gia     Lady Atou, what is this Hero? [10:02] Atou     In Mynoghra, there are several     Heroes who serve under our king. [10:07] Atou     They're all powerful and     possess special abilities, [10:10] Atou     though they're all monsters     with all of their screws loose. [10:15] Atou     There are several conditions to     meet in order to summon them, [10:18] Atou     but it should be possible     to summon at least one soon. [10:21] Takuto     Not only do armies carry an     Upkeep, they also stand out... [10:25] Atou     A Hero would also do well in     preserving our concealment. [10:28] Takuto     So we'll create a Hero,     and you can rest easy. [10:32] Gia     I-I'm truly grateful. [10:34] Takuto     Yeah! [10:35] Takuto     Managing domestic affairs is lots of fun! [10:38] Atou     It is lots of fun, King Takuto! SIGN    Citizen SIGN    Citizen SIGN    Citizen SIGN    Citizen SIGN    Citizen SIGN    National Mana [10:41] Takuto     We're also collecting Mana from our citizens, [10:45] Takuto     so our National Mana is building up nicely. [10:47] Takuto     The amount we collect is proportional     to our citizens' Happiness, [10:51] Takuto     so the happier our people are,     the more our nation can develop. [10:55] Takuto     All right! [10:57] Takuto     I'm going to lead everyone     to the peak of happiness! [11:14] Verdel     Hey, Lonius! [11:15] Verdel     What are you doing?! [11:17] Verdel     We don't have time to dawdle. [11:19] Lonius     This is a place for offering prayers to God. [11:22] Lonius     Please be quiet, Sir Verdel. [11:25] Verdel     You've prayed enough, haven't you? [11:28] Verdel     We need to— [11:29] Verdel     Hmm? What's that? [11:33] Verdel     Hmph, using your wedding ring     like a protective charm? [11:36] Verdel     You have a daughter too, right? [11:38] Verdel     What was the name of your wife and kid again? [11:41] Lonius     That has nothing to do with our mission. [11:44] Verdel     Don't be such a stranger. [11:46] Verdel     A High Paladin     is asking you a question. [11:49] Lonius     My wife is Marsha. [11:51] Lonius     My daughter is Mina. [11:53] Verdel     Hmm... [11:54] Verdel     Well, we'll be traveling for a few days. [11:56] Verdel     I'll tease you if you start mentioning     your wife or child's name in your sleep. [12:04] Verdel     Don't pout like that. [12:05] Lonius     Many rumors talk of him being     crude and ill-mannered. [12:10] Lonius     However, his skill and     achievements are authentic. [12:13] Verdel     Still, why are they sending     me to the Dark Continent? [12:16] Lonius     It's to investigate a revelation     Saint Soalina received. [12:21] Lonius     If we're successful, [12:23] Lonius     then we'll be well-regarded by the     Congress of the Southern Provinces. [12:26] Lonius     And if we fail, I'll be held responsible     as the Under Paladin. [12:31] Verdel     Hmph. [12:32] Verdel     These are some shabby forces for     a revelation from the saint. [12:36] Verdel     You and I are the only Paladins, [12:38] Verdel     and they told us to make up the     difference with mercenaries. [12:40] Verdel     It's rare to conduct an investigation     outside national borders, [12:43] Verdel     and there are no standards for     the size of troops dispatched. [12:45] Verdel     I wonder what the big-wigs are thinking. [12:49] Lonius     Even with the priesthood and Paladins, [12:51] Lonius     it's hard to know what the higher-ups are     thinking when they work behind the scenes. [12:55] Lonius     They must have had some reason for forcing     him to join me right before my departure. [13:00] Lonius     However... [13:02] Bargo     Lonius, man, we've been waiting for you. [13:06] Verdel     Oh! So these are the     mercenaries you recruited?! [13:09] Verdel     Well done! [13:11] Verdel     All right! Let's get this over with! [13:15] Lonius     Despite his attitude, he's     still a High Paladin. [13:17] Lonius     I guess he'll improve our investigation     team's chances of survival. [13:23] Emle     O great and mighty king, [13:24] Emle     we're truly grateful to have     you inspecting us today. [13:29] Takuto     Oh! Incredible! [13:39] Takuto     I've seen the sight of our     civilization starting out [13:41] Takuto     and getting into its groove     in-game many times before, [13:46] Takuto     but this is what it's like     to see it for real, huh? [13:50] Emle     That's our residential area. [13:51] Emle     We're specialized in treetop architecture, [13:54] Emle     but since we're currently     prioritizing the Flesh Trees, [13:57] Emle     we haven't made much progress on our homes. [14:00] Emle     Also, the Flesh Trees are growing steadily, [14:03] Emle     and we should complete     the food storehouse soon. [14:06] Emle     At the Magic Research     Institute, Elder Moltar [14:09] Emle     is leading several who are talented at     magic to get started on research at once. [14:14] Emle     We managed to discover a spring     nearby to secure water, [14:18] Emle     so we're looking into     creating an aqueduct. [14:21] Emle     Furthermore, this building     where our king resides [14:23] Emle     is the public office where     people can file paperwork. [14:26] Emle     I know Mynoghra's administrative body     deserves something more majestic, [14:31] Emle     but that's beyond our means at     present, so it's currently this size. [14:34] Takuto     That's great judgment. [14:36] Takuto     Plus, she's handled things I hadn't ordered, [14:38] Takuto     like securing a water source,     which I'm thankful for. [14:42] Takuto     And more importantly... [14:44] Takuto     the Dark Elves that were so     emaciated when I met them [14:47] Takuto     are now so full of life. [14:50] Takuto     Though I gave them that opportunity, [14:53] Takuto     It still makes me so happy to see. [14:55] Emle     Um, what do you think? [14:58] Emle     We've been carrying out your orders     in the hope of repaying you [15:02] Emle     for the great mercy you showed us. [15:04] Takuto     Yeah, it's incredible. [15:06] Takuto     Truly incredible. [15:07] Takuto     I'm glad I welcomed you all in as citizens. [15:12] Emle     Th-Thank you so much! [15:16] Takuto     D-Don't cry. [15:18] Atou     Jeez. [15:19] Atou     I know how you feel, though. [15:24] Emle     Please pardon me for my earlier outburst. [15:27] Emle     Allow me to continue guiding     you on your inspection. [15:30] Takuto     I'm glad she managed to recover. [15:33] Takuto     I never had a girl cry on me before, [15:35] Takuto     so I was really shaken. [15:37] Emle     The Flesh Trees here are     almost ready to harvest. [15:42] Emle     I know we had to rely on you for them,      but everything is proceeding smoothly [15:45] Emle     thanks to the quality tools and     farming equipment you gave us. [15:49] Takuto     I'll provide your tools for a while. [15:51] Takuto     I'm worried they'd be of poor quality     if you had to make them. [15:54] Atou     That will help things progress quickly. [15:56] Atou     It's overpowered. [15:58] Takuto     Using an overpowered ability     to dominate is super fun! [16:02] Atou     You're so evil, King Takuto! [16:07] FleshTree     I'm almost ripe enough to eat. [16:11] Atou     Now we've secured the food production     necessary to sustain Mynoghra's residents. [16:16] Takuto     Yeah! [16:17] Emle     N-Next, I'll show you to the water source. [16:21] Emle     Huh? [16:22] Emle     What's going on? [16:23] Emle     The forest seems strange? [16:24] Atou     Oh, this is... [16:30] Emle     The spring we finally found is now... [16:33] Moltar     What's the matter, Emle? [16:35] Moltar     Well, well. I see you're gracing us     with a personal inspection, my king. [16:40] Gia     I came to see about building an aqueduct     after hearing from Emle, but... [16:45] Emle     This water... is no good anymore. [16:48] Moltar     Let me see. [16:50] Moltar     Hmm, not when it's this color... [16:53] Atou     No, it's safe. [17:00] Atou     So good! [17:02] Booth     Huh?! [17:03] Emle     H-Huh?! [17:04] Atou     This is called "Cursed Terrain," [17:07] Atou     and it's proof that this land has     become part of Mynoghra's domain. [17:11] Takuto     Try taking a deep breath. [17:16] Moltar     I-I feel my mind growing sharper. [17:19] Gia     I feel my body brimming with strength! [17:22] Emle     I feel incredibly refreshed! [17:25] Atou     Cursed Terrain provides     benefits to evil beings [17:28] Atou     and penalties to neutral and good beings. [17:32] Atou     Since you all became citizens of Mynoghra, [17:35] Atou     you've gone from neutral to evil. [17:38] Moltar     You mean, not only is it safe, [17:41] Moltar     it also makes the land more     comfortable for us to live in? [17:44] Moltar     Then this water's also... [17:48] Moltar     I-I can drink it normally! [17:52] Takuto     Cursed Terrain is the perfect     kind of Terrain for defense. [17:55] Takuto     Soon enough, all the land in our     nation will change like this. [17:58] Atou     This is also a product of our king's power. [18:01] Moltar     As expected of our mighty king,     it's a most astonishing power. [18:06] Atou     There's just one problem with it. [18:09] Takuto     This blatantly stands out. [18:14] Moltar     Keeping a focused watch on this     local area is sufficient for now, [18:18] Moltar     but if the entire region becomes like this, [18:20] Moltar     then it'll become easier for     our enemies to discover us. [18:23] Gia     We should start forming an army. [18:26] Atou     You're such a worrywart. [18:28] Atou     Our king is going to create     a Hero, so it'll be fine. [18:31] Moltar     With all due respect, [18:33] Moltar     we still don't understand what a Hero     is from what you told us the other day. [18:38] Atou     It'll be faster to show you. [18:40] Atou     It's been quite a few days     since we arrived here. [18:43] Atou     Enough for this. [19:00] Atou     I forgot to tell you, but I'm also a Hero. [19:08] Atou     That's only a hundredth of     what I can do in my prime, [19:11] Atou     but those we call Heroes possess the     power to wipe out armies single-handedly. [19:17] Takuto     Heroes are overpowered. [19:19] Takuto     They don't stand out, [19:20] Takuto     and they keep getting stronger as time     passes, even if they don't do anything. [19:24] Moltar     They grow stronger simply     with the passage of time? [19:27] Gia     T-Then Lady Atou will grow even more     powerful than that in the future?! [19:32] Takuto     That's right. [19:34] Atou     So long as we plan to remain isolated, [19:35] Atou     I'm sufficient for our present needs. [19:41] Takuto     Atou. [19:42] Atou     Yes, my king?! [19:44] Takuto     You didn't have to destroy the forest     to show off your power, did you? [19:48] Takuto     It can wait until later, but     make sure to clean it up. [19:52] Atou     Yes. [19:54] Gia     W-We'll help as well! [19:56] Gia     Man, that was impressive! [19:59] Moltar     Once again, I'm forced to understand     how great your power is, Lady Atou, [20:03] Moltar     and how mighty King Ira Takuto is as well! [20:06] Moltar     I believe we urgently need to construct     a palace befitting our king! [20:11] Takuto     No, we don't need a palace. [20:13] Takuto     I'm fine with the same home as everyone else. [20:15] Moltar     That won't do! [20:17] Gia     Do you think we could accept     hearing that our king [20:19] Gia     lives in the same dwelling as all of us?! [20:22] Emle     We would feel too guilty to sleep! [20:25] Moltar     I understand it is audacious to object to     your profound reasoning, but please reconsider! [20:33] Atou     Um, King Takuto, [20:35] Atou     it may carry a great cost, but     a palace does produce Resources, [20:38] Atou     and it seems it would raise     our citizens' Happiness as well. [20:42] Takuto     Then let's build it? [20:45] Both     Yeah! [20:47] Takuto     I'd like the Floating Castle one day too, [20:49] Takuto     so maybe it would be good to build it early. [20:52] Atou     The National Legacy that can     be produced at Max City Level? [20:55] Atou     It is everyone's dream, isn't it? [20:57] Emle     Floating Castle? [20:59] Atou     It's a city that flies through the sky. [21:01] Gia     A city... in the sky? [21:04] Moltar     It's so fantastical, I can't even imagine it. [21:08] Emle     But our king has managed to realize     everything he's spoken of so far... [21:12] Emle     Which means even a flying city is... [21:17] Moltar     All of us Dark Elves [21:19] Moltar     once more vow to serve our     king with everything we have! [21:24] Gia     Glory to King Ira Takuto! [21:26] Emle     May Mynoghra see eternal prosperity! [21:32] Atou     King Takuto, for now... [21:35] Takuto     Yeah. [21:36] Takuto     Founding our nation is proceeding smoothly, [21:38] Takuto     so let's work hard to keep up the pace! [21:46] Verdel     Have you finished those off? [21:49] Lonius     I'm finished. [21:50] Verdel     Good! Let's hurry onward. [21:54] Bargo     There's no need for us to step in. [21:57] Verdel     Well, this is only the beginning. [22:04] Lonius     I just hope it keeps going this     way on the Dark Continent. 4 - Life Doesn't Always Go Your Way Source: Crunchyroll Translator: Editor: Timer: QC: (Please feel free to edit the speaker names if incomplete or inaccurate. Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) [00:07] Verdel     Man, y'know... [00:09] Verdel     You did well hiring this     large a mercenary group. [00:12] Lonius     Yes. I got lucky. [00:14] Lonius     Most of the mercenaries are     currently in the north. [00:17] Verdel     The Northern Disturbance, huh? [00:20] Lonius     Yes. [00:21] Lonius     The Northern Disturbance. [00:23] Lonius     Barbarians suddenly appeared in the northern     province of the Holy Kingdom of Qualia [00:27] Lonius     and raided the villages. [00:29] Lonius     It caused enormous damage. [00:32] Lonius     The saint and the army were sent     to bring things under control, [00:36] Lonius     but the disturbance still shows     no signs of settling down. [00:40] Bargo     Man, I've heard the north is in trouble. [00:44] Lonius     Don't talk like it doesn't concern you, Bargo. [00:46] Bargo     You say that, but it     really isn't our problem. [00:50] Verdel     What, you guys don't plan on going on there? [00:53] Verdel     I heard you can earn a lot of money. [00:55] Bargo     Even if it pays well, [00:57] Bargo     after hearing there's a Witch     up there, I'm staying away. [01:01] Lonius     A Witch? [01:03] Verdel     Well, who cares about the north. [01:05] Verdel     We're heading south, to the Accursed Lands. [01:09] Verdel     Who knows what we'll find there, [01:10] Verdel     so be on guard. [01:14] Bargo     I know that, buddy. SIGN    Life Doesn't Always Go Your Way [03:06] Lonius     Bargo, what was that about a Witch? [03:09] Bargo     Oh, it's just a rumor. Hearsay. [03:13] Bargo     People are talking and saying that the     commotion up north was caused by a Witch. [03:18] Lonius     Ridiculous. [03:20] Lonius     The saint was sent to the north as well. [03:23] Lonius     There's no way one person caused that. [03:25] Bargo     Yeah, I figure that's impossible too. [03:28] Bargo     Probably some heretics or something. [03:29] Verdel     Stop it! [03:31] Verdel     Enough with the depressing talk! [03:32] Bargo     S-Sorry. [03:36] Verdel     Refill! [03:37] Staff     Coming! [03:38] Bargo     Haven't you had a bit too     much to drink, buddy? [03:40] Verdel     Quit nitpicking, Bargo. [03:43] Verdel     God has told us: "After caring for     the suffering of the populace [03:46] Verdel     in your own home and before your     family, you should doff your robes." [03:49] Verdel     In other words! [03:50] Verdel     When work is over, it's okay     to cut loose and relax! [03:54] Lonius     That's Article 3, Section 4, Clause 3     of the Holy God Arlos's doctrine, right? [03:59] Lonius     That clause preaches that we're temporarily     freed from our sacred duties around our families. [04:04] Lonius     It's not supposed to grant     permission for drinking. [04:08] Verdel     Hmm? A difference in interpretation. [04:11] Verdel     Do we need to engage in     religious debate, Lonius? [04:14] Staff     I've brought your refill! [04:17] Verdel     I've waited for this! [04:21] Bargo     Still, guys, we have two Paladins going     out of their way to investigate something. [04:26] Bargo     Something in the Accursed Lands     of the Dark Continent, no less. [04:29] Bargo     What on earth could be that important? [04:31] Bargo     It's not something involving     a Witch like up north, is it? [04:36] Bargo     If it is, then we're... [04:38] Verdel     It's not that. [04:40] Verdel     Don't worry. [04:41] Verdel     We do have an idea of what it is. [04:45] Bargo     Yeah? What is it? [04:48] Verdel     Well, that's where the Dark Elves ran off to. [04:51] Verdel     The brass are probably just     worried about them causing trouble. [04:56] Bargo     I see! [04:57] Bargo     You're right that we can't     just leave them alone. [04:59] Bargo     They're talented in curses and     assassinations, after all. [05:03] Lonius     If they were to gain power in hiding, [05:07] Lonius     they'd eventually turn their blades on us! [05:08] Verdel     Don't tense up, Lonius. [05:11] Verdel     We're just investigating this time. [05:13] Verdel     We can just run     if it gets dangerous. [05:15] Verdel     Just run away. [05:17] Bargo     Oh! It's a relief for us     to hear that's your plan. [05:21] Lonius     Sir Verdel, are you sure that's the attitude     we should have as God's vanguards? [05:27] Lonius     If we find evil in there, then shouldn't      we risk our lives to exterminate it? [05:30] Verdel     Lonius! [05:31] Verdel     Don't be too hungry for glory. [05:33] Verdel     There will come a time when that's     necessary for us as Paladins. [05:36] Verdel     But that's not something you     should decide so easily. [05:39] Lonius     But... [05:40] Verdel     You have a family, don't you? [05:43] Verdel     It's the same for me and these guys. [05:46] Verdel     We have good reasons not to die. So... [05:52] Verdel     Enough, enough! [05:53] Verdel     Have I become a self-important old man,     drinking booze and lecturing others?! [05:56] Lonius     Old man? [05:59] Verdel     You guys! [06:00] Verdel     We're hitting the Dark Continent tomorrow! [06:02] Verdel     So go on and drink up now! [06:03] Mercenaries     Yeah! [06:10] Lonius     May the Holy God Arlos'     protection be with them. [06:22] Emle     Umm, is something about to happen? [06:24] Gia     I don't know. [06:25] Gia     But our king has gathered us here. [06:28] Gia     I'm sure it's important to the nation. [06:29] Moltar     Be quiet. It's starting. [07:10] Emle     The Flesh Tree's fruit... [07:11] Gia     Became a Long-legged Bug?! [07:13] Moltar     My king, are you truly     able to create new life? [07:20] Moltar     Oh my! [07:21] Elves     Whoa! [07:23] Atou     Did you see that? [07:25] Atou     This is the power of our     king, King Ira Takuto. [07:29] Atou     Our king still has much     more power than this too. [07:33] Atou     Your dedication and your happiness [07:36] Atou     will grant our king even more powers! [07:39] Atou     Everyone! [07:40] Atou     Show our king even more     devotion for his sake! [07:43] Atou     Do you understand?! [07:44] Elves     Yeah! SIGN    New unit produced through normal production. SIGN    New unit! Long-legged Bug [07:56] Takuto     I'm glad it went well. [07:58] Atou     Good work out there, King Takuto. [08:00] Atou     I'm delighted that we were     able to use normal production. [08:04] Takuto     Yeah. There's that too, [08:07] Takuto     but I'm relieved they backed down when     I smiled to brush off their question. [08:11] Takuto     Although... [08:12] Takuto     I wonder what's going on with that too. [08:14] Atou     Yes. I didn't think it'd be as simple as     gathering the resources, pouring mana into them, [08:18] Atou     and then "There, all done." [08:21] Atou     Well, thinking about things we     don't understand won't do any good. [08:25] Atou     More importantly, King Takuto! [08:27] Takuto     Yeah? [08:28] Takuto     With this latest ritual, [08:29] Takuto     we were able to confirm that we     can we safely produce new units. [08:32] Takuto     That means next time we can... [08:34] Takuto     Yeah. [08:35] Takuto     We'll conduct a Hero Summoning. [08:37] Atou     I knew it! [08:38] Atou     Even though we need to build     up a stockpile of mana for now, [08:41] Atou     we finally have a path forward. [08:44] Takuto     With two Heroes on our side, [08:46] Takuto     we can be assured of our fighting forces. [08:49] Atou     So who do you plan to summon first? [08:52] Takuto     Isla, the Queen of Bugs. [08:54] Takuto     I'm thinking of going with her. [08:56] Atou     Isla, then?! [08:58] Atou     She's fairly overpowered too, isn't she?! [09:00] Takuto     Yeah! [09:02] Takuto     Isla, the Queen of Bugs, is one of Mynoghra's     proud insectoid Heroes. [09:08] Takuto     She has the ability to     empower all Insect units. [09:11] Takuto     With that, [09:13] Takuto     the Long-legged Bugs will     become top-notch fighters. [09:16] Takuto     Moreover, [09:17] Takuto     she also has the ability     to produce Larva units [09:21] Takuto     and create our workforce. [09:23] Takuto     Isla boasts great performance in     both war and domestic affairs. [09:28] Takuto     She's the Hero we need the most right now. [09:32] Atou     That's impressive, King Takuto. [09:34] Atou     Getting Isla early in the game to     give birth, increase the workforce, [09:37] Atou     and grow more powerful     is a standard strategy. [09:39] Atou     When faced with many unknown elements, [09:42] Atou     that's all the more reason to     adopt the most reliable plan. [09:45] Takuto     Exactly. [09:47] Takuto     Well, that and all the others     have horrible personalities. [09:51] Takuto     That meant Isla was the only choice we had. [09:56] Atou     Now that you mention it, [09:57] Atou     one loves world conquest, [09:59] Atou     another loves throwing     the world into chaos... [10:02] Atou     All our Heroes are problematic... [10:05] Takuto     Yeah. [10:07] Takuto     We want to focus on domestic affairs, [10:08] Takuto     so the idea of summoning them is a bit... y'know? [10:14] Takuto     We can't go without their abilities, [10:17] Takuto     and I'd personally love to meet them too, [10:18] Takuto     so I plan to summon them eventually. [10:21] Takuto     I just hope they don't cause issues. [10:26] Takuto     I want to live in peace, Atou. [10:29] Atou     Yes, my king. [10:46] Soldier     It's a Hill Giant! [10:48] Lonius     Foul things attacking in broad daylight! [10:51] Lonius     I suppose I should expect     that from the Dark Continent. [10:54] Bargo     Hey guys, sorry to ask, but     could you give us some help? [10:57] Lonius     Of course. You men draw your bows— [10:59] Verdel     No, I'll do it. [11:00] Bargo     Huh?! [11:01] Lonius     Are you sure? [11:02] Verdel     Yeah. We don't have time to     waste getting delayed here. [11:16] Verdel     None of you guys do anything. [11:18] Verdel     It'll be a pain if his     attention gets distracted. [11:33] Verdel     O God! Grant me the power     to strike down evil! [11:37] Bargo     A holy sword art? [11:39] Lonius     Yeah. [11:40] Lonius     It's Qualia's secret technique of incorporating     prayers into the motions of our sword [11:44] Lonius     in order to gain divine might. [11:46] Lonius     It's starting! [11:53] Bargo     Look out! [11:58] Giant     Wha?! [12:00] Bargo     Wha?! [12:01] Lonius     Paladins granted divine might have     their physical abilities enhanced, [12:05] Lonius     and the power to eradicate     evil fills their bodies. [12:08] Lonius     For a High Paladin, that power is... [12:20] Lonius     equivalent to that of a Lesser Dragon. [12:22] Lonius     A hill giant won't even stand a chance. [12:27] Mercenaries     Yeah! [12:33] Lonius     That was impressive, Sir Verdel. [12:35] Verdel     Hmm? [12:36] Lonius     With power like that, [12:38] Lonius     we should be able to complete     our mission without any issues. [12:44] Verdel     I'm not so sure. [12:57] Atou     King Takuto... [12:59] Atou     Why don't you eat something     that's finer quality? [13:02] Takuto     Huh? [13:03] Takuto     I can't eat it? [13:04] Atou     You're welcome to eat it... [13:06] Atou     but I think you should be     eating healthier meals. [13:09] Takuto     I'm sick of doing that. [13:13] Takuto     When I was hospitalized, [13:15] Takuto     I ate lots of that stuff. [13:17] Takuto     On that note, though, [13:20] Takuto     I'm more worried about you. [13:21] Atou     Worried? Why is that? [13:24] Takuto     Why? [13:26] Takuto     Because you're just eating salads. [13:27] Atou     That suits my tastes better. [13:31] Takuto     You're far too healthy     for your evil alignment. [13:34] Takuto     Anyway, [13:35] Takuto     this is becoming incredible, isn't it? [13:37] Atou     The Materials for constructing     the Palace, right? [13:40] Atou     The Dark Elves are certainly going all out. [13:42] Takuto     Oh! That reminds me. [13:44] Atou     What's the matter? [13:46] Takuto     Once we're done eating, could you     summon Moltar and the others? [13:49] Atou     As you wish. [13:50] Atou     Though what did you wish to discuss? [13:53] Takuto     Thanks to the Long-legged Bugs, [13:54] Takuto     I can see the area around the forest as well. [13:58] Takuto     I figured I'd consult with     them on how to handle it. [14:00] Atou     We need to handle the area around the forest? [14:05] Atou     You're referring to the nearby city, then? [14:08] Takuto     Yeah. [14:09] Takuto     That town's not part of... Qualia, was it? [14:12] Takuto     It's not part of that good nation. [14:14] Atou     Well, Qualia is much further to the north. [14:17] Atou     This town would be of a different,     neutral nation in the east. [14:22] Atou     We certainly should decide     on how to handle this. [14:25] Atou     They're likely to be the first     to discover our existence, [14:29] Atou     since they're closest. [14:31] Takuto     Right? [14:32] Takuto     I'm glad they're a neutral nation. [14:35] Takuto     If they were good, there would     be no chance of negotiating. [14:38] Atou     Yes. [14:39] Atou     Anyone else coming here would mean trouble. [14:42] Atou     Since it would mean they came with a purpose. [14:45] Takuto     You're such a worrywart, Atou. [14:48] Takuto     There's no sign that anyone's     aware of our existence, [14:51] Takuto     so it'll be fine. [14:53] Atou     Oh, silly King Takuto! [14:55] Atou     Saying such things will trigger     an event flag, you know? [14:59] Takuto     No way. It won't trigger— [15:03] Atou     Wh-What's happened? [15:05] Takuto     Looks like someone really did come here. [15:09] Takuto     There's an armed band approaching the forest. [15:12] Takuto     Atou. [15:13] Atou     Yes! [15:14] Takuto     I want to avoid standing out for now. [15:16] Takuto     Go turn them away as peacefully as possible. [15:18] Takuto     If that's not possible, then... [15:20] Atou     As you command. [15:28] Lonius     So these are the Accursed Lands and the     Cursed Sea of Trees that bars all life? [15:34] Verdel     Let's go. [15:35] Lonius     Yes. [15:42] Verdel     Stop! [15:44] Lonius     Sir Verdel? [15:54] Lonius     A young girl? [15:58] Verdel     Stop right there, girl! [16:01] Verdel     Who are you?! [16:03] Verdel     What are you doing in these Accursed Lands?! [16:06] Atou     I'm a Dark Elf who fled into     these woods to survive. [16:10] Atou     I see that you are a Paladin of Qualia. [16:14] Atou     What business has brought you here this day? [16:17] Verdel     I cannot tell you our reason. [16:19] Verdel     Answer our question first, little girl. [16:22] Verdel     What are you doing in these woods? [16:24] Atou     I'm simply living alongside my brethren     who faced similar circumstances. [16:29] Verdel     You've gone out of your way     to live in such cursed land? [16:32] Verdel     Well, whatever. [16:33] Verdel     Our business is with this forest. [16:35] Verdel     You won't mind us entering, will you? [16:37] Atou     You mustn't do that. [16:38] Atou     I ask that you please refrain. [16:43] Lonius     We are men recognized by God— [16:45] Verdel     Be quiet, Lonius! [16:47] Verdel     I'm talking right now! [16:49] Lonius     M-My apologies. [16:52] Lonius     Did that really warrant such a rebuke? [16:54] Lonius     I simply interjected a little. [16:58] Verdel     We came here on a job. [17:00] Verdel     We can't exactly nod our heads and go     home just because you don't like it. [17:04] Atou     My brethren are terrified. [17:06] Atou     We've all suffered a long and painful     journey to finally find a place to live in peace. [17:12] Atou     I ask that you please show us mercy. [17:16] Verdel     You're insistent on this. [17:17] Verdel     Is there something in the forest? [17:19] Atou     There's nothing. [17:20] Atou     Only peace and quiet. [17:23] Atou     What about you, Sir Paladin? [17:25] Atou     Why are you so intent     on such a gloomy forest? [17:38] Verdel     Tsk! [17:39] Verdel     We've come due to a divine revelation     of calamity lurking in this land! [17:43] Verdel     We can't return home without     confirming the truth! [17:49] Lonius     Sir Verdel! [17:50] Lonius     The revelation is an     important national secret! [17:53] Lonius     Why are you sharing it?! [17:54] Verdel     I told you to be quiet, didn't I?! [17:56] Verdel     Secret or not, there are times      that things need to be said! [18:01] Lonius     Sharing a divine revelation without     permission is a sinful breach of trust! [18:05] Lonius     Even if he is a High Paladin, [18:07] Lonius     there's still a limit to     his personal authority! [18:11] Lonius     I'll be reporting this when     we return to our homeland! [18:15] Verdel     Do as you please. [18:17] Atou     A divine revelation, you say? [18:20] Atou     So you Paladins are concerned about     this potential calamity then? [18:23] Verdel     That's right. [18:24] Verdel     We'd like to enter this     forest to confirm the truth. [18:29] Atou     I'm terribly sorry. [18:33] Lonius     She's refusing?! [18:34] Lonius     After learning we're here on a     revelation—a mission from God?! [18:40] Atou     There's nothing for you to be concerned     about in this land, Sir Paladin. [18:44] Atou     I beg for your understanding and     ask that you please go back. [18:48] Verdel     Just letting us in a     little bit would be fine. [18:51] Verdel     Is that not possible either? [18:53] Atou     I ask that you please refrain. [18:55] Lonius     Was that evil energy just now? [18:58] Lonius     Is this little girl really a Dark Elf? [19:03] Lonius     The revelation was correct! [19:05] Lonius     There is something in this forest! [19:07] Lonius     We have to find it! [19:09] Verdel     So there is no calamity then? [19:11] Atou     There is not. [19:13] Verdel     And the chances of a calamity     befalling us and our people? [19:17] Atou     There's none. [19:18] Atou     If anything, we are the ones to be afraid. [19:21] Verdel     Would you swear that before God? [19:25] Atou     I swear it upon my god. [19:35] Verdel     We're leaving. [19:37] Lonius     What do you think you're doing?! [19:38] Verdel     She said they just want to live in peace. [19:41] Verdel     So there's no problem here. [19:43] Lonius     I can feel the evil energy coming from her! [19:45] Lonius     You would trust the word     of someone like that?! [19:48] Verdel     Yeah, I would. [19:49] Verdel     Beginning from a place of trust     is part of our doctrine! [19:52] Lonius     And if she's trying to deceive us? [19:54] Verdel     Don't let fear color your     perspective, you impious man. [19:58] Verdel     There's no problem here. [19:59] Verdel     That's the result of our investigation. [20:03] Verdel     Now, let's get back home already. [20:12] Lonius     What a shame! [20:13] Lonius     High Paladin Verdel, [20:15] Lonius     I deem that you have abandoned our     mission, and strip you of your authority! [20:20] Verdel     Huh? [20:21] Verdel     Are you screwing with me right now? [20:23] Lonius     You are the one screwing around! [20:25] Lonius     Not only have you shared the revelation, [20:28] Lonius     but you plan to return     without investigating?! [20:30] Lonius     Are you making a mockery of God's will?!

[00:12] Verdel     Stop right there, girl! [00:14] Verdel     Who are you?! [00:17] Atou     I'm a Dark Elf who fled into     these woods to survive. [00:21] Verdel     Our business is with this forest. [00:23] Verdel     You won't mind us entering, will you? [00:25] Atou     You mustn't do that. [00:26] Atou     I ask that you please refrain. [00:32] Verdel     We're leaving. [00:35] Lonius     What do you think you're doing?! [00:36] Verdel     She said they just want to live in peace. [00:39] Verdel     So there's no problem here.

SIGN    I'm the Monster You've Been Looking For [03:06] Verdel     Bargo! [03:07] Verdel     I don't care who does it, just get     a runner back home! [03:10] Verdel     They have to know about this! [03:11] Bargo     Sorry, buddy. [03:14] Bargo     She just took out our     messengers with that attack. [03:18] Atou     Come on. I'm the monster     you've been looking for. [03:21] Atou     The calamity you were searching     for has appeared before you. [03:27] Lonius     Sir Verdel! [03:29] Verdel     Don't lose your nerve now! [03:31] Verdel     We have no choice but to fight at this point! [03:33] Verdel     Everyone, combat formation! [03:36] Verdel     Ready your weapons! [03:38] Verdel     We will now eliminate the calamity! [03:40] Men     Yeah! [03:41] Atou     Oh? You're attacking me? [03:48] Verdel     Fire! [03:54] Atou     No mercy! [03:56] Atou     That's good! [03:57] Atou     I like this! [03:59] Atou     Love it, in fact! [04:01] Lonius     Impossible! [04:02] Verdel     Dammit! [04:04] Verdel     This is horrible! [04:05] Verdel     And everything nearly went so well! [04:07] Atou     I'm completely in agreement. [04:10] Atou     I also regret that it's come to this. [04:15] Atou     Though it's all the fault of that fool [04:19] Atou     who brandished his silly piety [04:22] Atou     and tried to pry where he shouldn't. [04:25] Lonius     Sir Verdel, what... exactly is a Witch? [04:30] Verdel     I was ordered to keep it strictly     confidential by the higher-ups, [04:33] Verdel     but I guess I should have told you. [04:35] Verdel     When the saint receives a revelation     and the upper ranks confirm it, [04:39] Verdel     that monster is designated as     a calamity and called a Witch. [04:43] Verdel     The commotion up north was     caused by a Witch too! [04:49] Verdel     This woman is likely that very same thing! [04:52] Verdel     Do you understand how dangerous     the situation we're in is now?! [04:55] Lonius     Yes! [04:56] Atou     All done? [04:58] Atou     All finished chatting? [05:01] Verdel     Mercenaries, fall back! [05:03] Verdel     We'll face her! [05:05] Verdel     Follow my lead, Lonius! [05:07] Both     O God! Grant me the power     to strike down evil! [05:18] Atou     So slow. Weak, too. [05:20] Verdel     Nah, that ain't necessarily the case! [05:30] Verdel     First, we'll deal with those     disgusting tentacles! [05:33] Verdel     We're cutting them all off! [05:34] Lonius     Yes! [05:37] Atou     Using a god's blessing to     deliver a divine strike? [05:40] Atou     The effect is a special attack bonus     against evil-aligned entities, I'd say. [05:45] Atou     This is the problem with units     from a good civilization. [05:50] Verdel     Just three more! [05:52] Atou     Why, you! [05:59] Verdel     Well done! [06:01] Verdel     What?! [06:02] Verdel     Shit! [06:05] Verdel     Dammit! [06:07] Lonius     Sir Verdel! [06:08] Atou     Pardon me. [06:09] Atou     I was taking you Paladins a bit too lightly. [06:12] Atou     You've proven stronger than expected. [06:15] Atou     However, how is this for you? [06:18] Atou     Can you strike now? [06:20] Atou     You can't, can you? [06:21] Atou     This is why I love humans. [06:23] Atou     You care for each other so much     that you make perfect shields! [06:27] Mercenary     S-Save me! [06:29] Lonius     You fiend! [06:31] Verdel     Restrain yourself, Lonius! [06:33] Verdel     Just two more. [06:35] Verdel     Cut off two more, and we win. [06:39] Lonius     But then— [06:41] Verdel     If we defeat that fiend, then     we'll purge the calamity. [06:44] Verdel     There won't be any harm to our homeland. [06:47] Verdel     Think of the bigger picture right now! [06:49] Lonius     I understand. [06:52] Atou     What?! Why are you attacking?! [06:56] Atou     The hostages too?! [06:58] Lonius     I'm sorry, but— [07:00] Verdel     This is— [07:12] Lonius     Huh? [07:15] Verdel     Run! [07:17] Verdel     Run, Loni—! [07:24] Lonius     S-Sir Verdel?! [07:33] Lonius     How? [07:35] Lonius     We cut all the tentacles! [07:37] Atou     Did I ever say I only had six? [07:40] Atou     I can replace these as much as I want. [07:43] Lonius     Wha?! [07:45] Lonius     She was toying with us     from the very start? [07:51] Atou     Now then... [07:55] Lonius     Run! [07:56] Bargo     Huh? [07:57] Lonius     Have everyone scatter and     run in different directions! [07:59] Lonius     At least one person must survive     to warn our homeland about this! [08:08] Atou     You just had to do that. [08:14] Lonius     How are you... [08:15] Atou     Able to use Holy Sword Artes, you ask? [08:23] Atou     I stole them. [08:25] Atou     From that man there. [08:27] Lonius     Stole them? [08:28] Atou     Yes. [08:29] Atou     All the diligent effort he put in, [08:31] Atou     all the techniques he honed, [08:34] Atou     became mine the moment I killed him! [08:39] Atou     The skill behind this technique! [08:41] Atou     It seems Paladin Verdel [08:43] Atou     was a man worthy of being     called a powerful fighter. [08:47] Atou     Though he died from your shortsightedness! [08:50] Atou     So your wife's name is Marsha,     and Mina's your daughter? [08:55] Lonius     How do you know that?! Did you also... [08:58] Atou     Yes, I stole it! [09:00] Atou     His feelings, his memories, everything! [09:02] Lonius     I-Impossible! [09:05] Lonius     Skills, memories... [09:07] Lonius     She steals everything from those she kills? [09:10] Lonius     So that means she only gets     stronger the more she kills?! [09:14] Atou     "If I die here, what will happen     to Lonius and his family?" [09:20] Atou     "The mercenaries, and even myself, all     have people waiting for our return!" [09:26] Atou     How heroic. [09:27] Atou     No wonder he was a High Paladin. [09:29] Atou     He was concerned for all of your     safety until his final moment. [09:34] Atou     So what are you feeling after     hearing that, Paladin Lonius?! [09:42] Lonius     H-His will still lives on! [09:45] Lonius     While I'm keeping you in check here, [09:48] Lonius     the mercenaries can escape! [09:52] Lonius     What?! [09:53] Atou     Oh, that's the Dark Elves. [09:56] Atou     I ordered them to not let a single man escape. [10:00] Atou     Huh? [10:01] Atou     Did I ever say that I was alone? [10:17] Atou     Why don't we talk about a     future that could have been? [10:20] Atou     This is what would have happened if     you had listened to Paladin Verdel: [10:27] Atou     You would have returned home safely [10:29] Atou     and been reunited with your beloved family. [10:31] Atou     You would have enjoyed the peaceful     happiness of an ordinary life, [10:35] Atou     and continued offering your     prayers of gratitude to your god. [10:38] Atou     Meanwhile, we would have been     blessed with peace as well. [10:42] Atou     The forest would have remained tranquil, [10:44] Atou     and I would have gone to bed     hoping that could last forever. [10:51] Atou     Now, let's talk about the     future you have chosen. [10:54] Atou     You will die. [10:56] Atou     Then your family will die too. [10:59] Atou     I'll hunt them down and kill them. [11:03] Atou     I'll torment them, and torment them, [11:05] Atou     and torment them, until they plead     for death. Only then will I kill them. [11:09] Atou     After that, I'll go to every village and     town you all stopped at on your way here, [11:14] Atou     and I'll kill everyone living there. [11:16] Atou     There won't be much point or meaning to that, [11:19] Atou     but I might as well kill them. [11:21] Atou     When they ask me why, [11:23] Atou     I'll tell them it was because     of your foolish actions, [11:27] Atou     then I'll kill them. [11:29] Lonius     Stop! [11:30] Atou     When people disregard you, you're finished. [11:33] Atou     So be sure to kill them when they do. [11:36] Atou     That's what I was taught     by someone precious to me. [11:39] Atou     So I'm killing them. [11:41] Atou     I'll kill them without exception, [11:43] Atou     to make sure none ever look down on me, [11:45] Atou     no matter how many hundreds, thousands,     or millions that number has to climb to. [11:53] Atou     This is what you have chosen. [11:57] Lonius     S-Stop! [11:59] Lonius     Stop it, please! [12:02] Atou     I'm sure you were a good person! [12:05] Atou     You believed in your god, [12:06] Atou     devoted yourself to your nation, [12:07] Atou     and loved your family! [12:09] Atou     How commendable! [12:11] Atou     But this is why I hate those     who believe they are just. [12:19] Atou     Farewell, Paladin Lonius. [12:24] Atou     Please watch from your VIP seat in heaven. [12:27] Atou     Watch as those dear to you and all those     innocent bystanders suffer atrocious deaths. [13:04] Gia     Lady Atou. [13:06] Atou     Yes, Gia? [13:08] Gia     We finished off everyone as you ordered. [13:11] Atou     I'm sure our king will be     delighted to hear that as well. [13:15] Atou     I'm heading back, then. [13:18] Atou     You're in charge of disposing of the corpses. [13:21] Gia     Umm... [13:23] Atou     What is it? [13:25] Gia     Are you actually going to carry     out what you just said to him? [13:29] Atou     Hmm? [13:32] Atou     Oh, come on! [13:34] Atou     There's no way I'm doing all that! [13:36] Gia     Huh? [13:37] Atou     I'm a pacifist. [13:39] Atou     I was just messing around! [13:41] Atou     Just messing with him! SIGN    Pacifist? [13:44] Atou     Oh, shoot! [13:45] Atou     I don't have time to waste here. [13:48] Atou     I need to hurry back to our king! [13:51] Gia     Is there something concerning you? [13:53] Atou     Yes. [13:56] Atou     There's something I need     to tell our king at once. [14:12] Takuto     Witches... [14:14] Takuto     There wasn't a unit like that     in Eternal Nations, was there? [14:18] Atou     There wasn't. [14:19] Atou     It would seem this world definitely     isn't the world of the game. [14:23] Takuto     I see. [14:27] Takuto     I thought that might be the case, [14:31] Takuto     but I guess we really have     come to another world. [14:34] Atou     The game's mechanics have     been applicable to an extent, [14:38] Atou     but we should operate under the assumption     that the world functions differently. [14:43] Takuto     That's troublesome. [14:44] Atou     However, there are also good aspects     to it being different from the game. [14:50] Takuto     You're referring to your ability? [14:52] Atou     Yes. [14:55] Takuto     The special ability Atou     possessed in the game [14:58] Takuto     granted her a set chance [15:00] Takuto     to steal a defeated unit's ability. [15:04] Takuto     But... [15:06] Atou     I'm able to steal my defeated opponents'     memories to some degree as well. [15:10] Atou     This will prove a great     weapon in our arsenal. [15:14] Takuto     Right. Thanks to that, we've learned     about the situation in Qualia [15:17] Takuto     without sending anyone to investigate. [15:19] Atou     Yes. [15:20] Atou     It's fortunate for us that Qualia     doesn't have the forces to spare [15:23] Atou     thanks to the disaster in the place     they call the Northern Province. [15:26] Takuto     Good. We can take it easy for a while, then. [15:31] Atou     I think they're likely to take some kind     of action after we wiped them out, though. [15:36] Takuto     They don't have any information on us. [15:40] Takuto     So even if they do act, they'll     have to do so with caution. [15:44] Takuto     What concerns me more is     the cause of that disaster. [15:48] Takuto     The Northern Disturbance... [15:50] Takuto     It was caused by a Witch, right? [15:53] Atou     Yes. According to the memories I stole. [15:57] Takuto     Do you know anything else? [16:01] Atou     Unfortunately, not much. [16:03] Atou     It seems even Qualia doesn't     know much about the Witch. [16:07] Atou     What they do know [16:08] Atou     is that she's caused damage on par with     armies to the cities of the Northern Province, [16:13] Atou     and what she's called. [16:16] Takuto     Let me hear it. [16:18] Atou     Apparently she's called     "Erakino, the Slurping Witch." [16:22] Erakino     Click, clack, click, clack. [16:31] Erakino     Rattle, roll, rattle, roll. [16:34] Erakino     The gods never roll the dice. [16:37] Erakino     Dreams and hope are nowhere to be found. [16:39] Erakino     Life is all just killing time. [16:43] Erakino     All right then, we're off to the next city! [16:45] Erakino     All my simps, come on! [17:00] Takuto     Atou, [17:01] Takuto     that Northern Disturbance     occurred recently, right? [17:07] Atou     Yes. [17:08] Takuto     So a monster showed up [17:10] Takuto     that's capable of causing damage on     par with armies in such a short time? [17:16] Takuto     Maybe it's possible they came     to this world much like we did? [17:23] Takuto     Either way, it's clear that they have     someone with the strength of Hero units. [17:29] Takuto     This is a troublesome turn of events. [17:34] Atou     What shall we do about it? [17:36] Atou     Judging by their actions, I believe     they're also evil-aligned, [17:41] Atou     but would you like to try     reaching out to them? [17:44] Takuto     I don't think we should do that. [17:47] Takuto     We'll never get along anyway. [17:49] Takuto     Not when we're both evil. [17:51] Atou     That's true. [17:55] Atou     Everything was going so well, too. [17:58] Atou     Why do we have to deal with     one problem after another? [18:01] Takuto     Well, it's happening in the distant north. [18:04] Takuto     The fact that we have time to deal     with it is a blessing, at least. [18:07] Atou     Yes. [18:09] Takuto     Atou, now that we know they have     combat strength equal to a Hero unit, [18:14] Takuto     there's one thing we have to do. [18:17] Atou     Produce a new Hero, right? [18:19] Takuto     Exactly. [18:21] Takuto     I was planning on producing Isla, [18:24] Takuto     but maybe I should reconsider that now. [18:27] Takuto     Maybe it would be better to     focus on combat potential. [18:29] Atou     Good point. [18:31] Atou     It'll still take a bit more time to gather     the necessary mana to produce a Hero. [18:36] Atou     I'll lend what little help     I can too, King Takuto! [18:40] Takuto     Thanks, Atou. [18:42] Takuto     Though Isla's not the only     thing I need to reconsider. [18:46] Atou     Meaning? [18:48] Takuto     I'm thinking of altering     our policies a little. [18:51] Atou     Our policies? [18:54] Takuto     Let's forge an alliance. [18:56] Atou     Huh?! [18:59] Takuto     We have a clear enemy in Qualia. [19:02] Takuto     Plus we have the uncertain     element of the Witch. [19:05] Takuto     So I want to have another nation on our side. [19:07] Atou     I understand your reasoning, [19:09] Atou     but is that possible? [19:10] Atou     We're evil-aligned, you know. [19:13] Takuto     It's possible if there's     value for the other nation. [19:15] Takuto     Of course, that will only work     with a neutral-aligned nation. [19:19] Atou     A neutral-aligned... [19:21] Atou     You mean the nation to our east? [19:23] Takuto     Yeah! [19:25] Takuto     Once the Palace is complete, [19:26] Takuto     I want to investigate that nation     while strengthening our forces. [19:31] Takuto     We need to find out if they're     willing to join forces with us. [19:47] Beastman     That's a Staff Holder for you! [19:48] Man     She defeated so many barbarians so easily!

[20:19] Beastman     Yes! [20:25] Tonukapoli     What is happening here? [20:39] Atou     Umm, King Takuto? [20:43] Takuto     Hmm? What is it? [20:47] Atou     Umm, well, see... [20:50] Takuto     Hmm? [20:53] Atou     I figured I might have soured your mood. [21:02] Takuto     Hmm? [21:03] Atou     W-Well, you know! [21:05] Atou     Umm, I might have gone just a little     too far against those Paladins... [21:12] Takuto     What about it? [21:14] Atou     Huh? [21:19] Atou     Hmm? [21:26] Takuto     It's all right. [21:28] Takuto     I would never be offended     by anything you did, Atou.

[02:36] Atou     The women attending to us shall be countless! [02:38] Takuto     Yeah! I'm getting excited! [02:42] Atou     I-I just realized something terrible! [02:45] Atou     We don't have a single attendant     taking care of you, King Takuto! [02:50] Takuto     Now that you mention it, yeah. [02:52] Atou     How could I permit such failure? [02:54] Atou     I've failed you as your servant! [02:56] Takuto     You're going overboard. [02:58] Takuto     I haven't minded it at all. [03:00] Atou     I'm still concerned about it! [03:02] Atou     Do you have any requests for one? [03:03] Takuto     Hmm... [03:08] Takuto     S-Someone who's easy to     talk to would be nice. SIGN    Poor Communicator [03:11] Atou     King Takuto! [03:16] Takuto     I haven't been able to talk     to the Dark Elves at all, [03:19] Takuto     so I've been feeling really lonely. [03:20] Takuto     I want to try to be a friendlier king. [03:24] Atou     Well, King Takuto, that's because     your majesty is a bit too great. [03:29] Atou     But please don't worry! [03:31] Atou     I have a brilliant idea. [03:33] Atou     Would you grant me a little time? [03:35] Takuto     Nothing good ever happens when Atou's     this enthusiastic about something. [03:41] Moltar     I have humbly come before you     in response to your summons. [03:45] Atou     Elder Moltar! [03:46] Atou     Gather up all of your little girls! [03:49] Atou     Our king desires them! [03:51] Both     Huh?! [03:53] Atou     I'll have little girls attend to him to     help him practice his conversation skills... [03:57] Atou     What a brilliant idea! [03:58] Moltar     P-Please wait a moment, Lady Atou! [04:01] Moltar     For what reason are you     issuing such an order? [04:05] Atou     Because our king likes little girls! [04:12] Takuto     Atou! [04:14] Atou     Yes?! [04:18] Moltar     Now I understand. [04:19] Moltar     Our king seeks to have an innocent child     close by to care for his daily needs [04:23] Moltar     so as to remind himself not to     be shackled by common thinking. [04:26] Moltar     What an impressive mind. [04:28] Gia     That's true. [04:29] Gia     Children often spout outlandish ideas, [04:31] Gia     but occasionally those ideas     spark revelations in adults. [04:35] Atou     There's also another reason. [04:37] Atou     Our king is being thoughtful and trying to     avoid diverting people away from our labor force. [04:41] Atou     We're still very short on hands     at the moment, after all. [04:43] Atou     Even if it is for our king, it's just     helping to take care of one's daily needs. [04:46] Atou     Even a young child is sufficient     for such simple chores. [04:51] Gia     Wouldn't a male child     work just as well, then? [04:54] Takuto     T-That's not the only reason. [04:56] Takuto     Future leadership. [04:57] Takuto     I'll have them study for our future as well. [04:59] Takuto     I'd like to see more opportunities     for women to excel. [05:03] Takuto     I want this to be a step toward that. [05:05] Moltar     Oh! [05:06] Moltar     To show such deep consideration! [05:10] Takuto     Thank goodness. [05:11] Takuto     That was a desperate excuse,     but I'm glad they bought it. [05:15] Moltar     My, my, our king has shown     us many great policies. [05:19] Gia     I'm surprised he's already looking ahead     toward the nurturing of future talent. [05:24] Emle     Our king is impressive! [05:26] Takuto     I'm not that great. [05:28] Atou     Our discussion is over. [05:30] Atou     Now, bring us your children! [05:32] Takuto     I'm counting on you! [05:34] Takuto     All right! [05:35] Takuto     Now to work hard on curing     my poor communication! [05:45] Atou     M-My king, it's just children being children. [05:50] Atou     Our king is pouting! [05:52] Atou     Are there no children who won't     cry at the sight of our king?! [05:55] Moltar     My sincere apologies. This     is all of our children. [05:59] Atou     Weaklings! [06:00] Atou     They're weaklings! [06:02] Gia     Elder Moltar, did you allow     those twins an audience too? [06:05] Moltar     N-No... [06:07] Moltar     Bringing those children before     the king would be rude. [06:11] Atou     What is this about? [06:13] Molatar     How should I describe it? [06:14] Molatar     There is a pair of twin     girls without any family. [06:18] Molatar     They certainly are sensible girls,     but there's a slight issue. [06:22] Molatar     I believe they would be     inappropriate as our king's attendants. [06:26] Atou     Wouldn't wise children be a perfect fit? [06:29] Atou     Well, regardless, we'll see     them and decide for ourselves. [06:32] Atou     Please bring them here. [06:35] Gia     I've already brought them here. [06:37] Moltar     Gia! You work fast, don't you?! [06:41] Gia     Unlike our aging elders, [06:43] Gia     I'm always thinking two or     three steps ahead for our king. [06:46] Moltar     You little whippersnapper! [06:49] Atou     Now, now, please don't fight. [06:52] Atou     Now then, please summon the twins at once. [06:56] Gia     Yes! [07:04] Caria     It's a pleasure to meet you,     great and mighty king. [07:07] Caria     I am called Caria Elfuur. [07:11] Maria     I'm her big sister. [07:14] Caria     My big sister is Maria Elfuur. [07:18] Takuto     N-Nice to meet you. [07:22] Atou     They do seem to be children     with a grim history. [07:28] Atou     You there, how did you get those sores? [07:31] Caria     From a disease. [07:33] Takuto     Poor girl! [07:35] Caria     My king, [07:36] Caria     this is what I deserve. [07:39] Moltar     Allow me to explain for her. [07:41] Moltar     The sores were caused by a plague, [07:44] Moltar     and even though she's completely     recovered from it, that scar remains. [07:48] Atou     And what about your big sister? [07:51] Caria     My big sister went through     something very cruel. [07:55] Atou     Something cruel? [07:58] Maria     I ate Mom. [08:04] Atou     Moltar? [08:07] Moltar     It was a hard decision. [08:09] Moltar     Their mother was a woman to be proud of. [08:13] Moltar     Our clan has never forgotten     the sacrifice she made for us. [08:19] Takuto     Right... [08:21] Takuto     They traveled long and far after     being driven from their homes. [08:26] Takuto     Of course that meant trials forcing     extreme decisions on them too. [08:30] Takuto     One of which was starvation. [08:37] Atou     The fact that they have the courage     not to cower is appealing, but... [08:46] Maria     My king, you're white! [08:50] Takuto     How so? [08:52] Maria     Hmm, I'm not sure. [08:55] Takuto     Maria, was it? [08:57] Takuto     Are you willing to take care of me? [08:59] Maria     Yeah! I'll take care of you, my king! [09:02] Takuto     It might be hard, with a lot to learn, [09:04] Takuto     but will you do your best? [09:06] Maria     I think I can. [09:09] Takuto     Then starting today, you're a candidate     for the leadership of our great Mynoghra. [09:14] Atou     O-Our king! [09:16] Atou     Our king is a having a proper     conversation with a little girl! [09:21] Takuto     You aren't afraid? [09:23] Caria     A-As her little sister, I have a     duty to stay with my big sister. [09:30] Caria     If that's what Big Sis wants, [09:34] Caria     then I'll do my best alongside her. [09:36] Takuto     That's good. [09:37] Takuto     That's very good of you. [09:39] Takuto     Then you'll stay with us too? [09:41] Caria     Y-You can count on me! [09:45] Atou     Our king has granted his permission. [09:48] Atou     From now on, these two shall     work to take care of our king. [09:53] Takuto     I'll be counting on you two. [09:59] Moltar     My king, there's something you should know. [10:02] Takuto     What is it? [10:04] Moltar     To be honest, [10:07] Moltar     those two haven't cried even     once since losing their mother. [10:12] Takuto     What do you mean? [10:13] Moltar     Their hearts remain closed off. [10:16] Moltar     I beg you to watch over them     with tolerance and mercy. [10:30] Maria     My king, your drink. [10:32] Takuto     Thanks. [10:36] Maria     I spilled it. [10:37] Takuto     I-It's all right. [10:41] Caria     K-King! I'll wipe your clothing! [10:46] Takuto     T-Thanks. [10:49] Atou     Again? [10:51] Takuto     Now, now. [10:54] Atou     Anyway, we have a meeting now. [10:57] Atou     You two will attend as well. [10:58] Atou     Try to avoid any blunders. [11:00] Takuto     Let's go, then. [11:02] Both     Yeah. [11:04] Atou     Now, it's time for our fun domestic affairs. [11:08] Atou     We'll start with reports     on our current situation. [11:10] Atou     Construction manager? [11:11] Emle     Yes, I'm Emle, the one in     charge of construction. [11:15] Emle     Now that we have completed the     Palace, we have some labor to spare. [11:19] Emle     Our supply of lumber remains steady, [11:21] Emle     so we have plenty of resources too. [11:22] Emle     I believe we can start     work on a new facility. [11:25] Atou     I see. [11:26] Atou     Then King Takuto, [11:28] Atou     are we good to proceed with the next     Building we discussed last meeting? [11:32] Takuto     Yeah. [11:33] Atou     Then, Emle, [11:34] Atou     please start construction of the Clinic next. [11:37] Takuto     The Clinic guarantees the health     and safety of our citizens [11:40] Takuto     and it has a low building cost, [11:42] Takuto     so it's the best option at present. [11:44] Emle     As you command. [11:45] Emle     I'll convey that to the     one in charge of the work. [11:48] Atou     Next is the state of our     Resources. Who's in charge? [11:52] Emle     Oh! [11:53] Emle     Th-That's me! [11:55] Atou     We really are lacking staff. [11:57] Emle     I'm also in charge of Resources. [12:00] Emle     Our domestic collection of Food and     Materials is proceeding smoothly. [12:04] Emle     With the aid of our king, [12:05] Emle     we're also able to provide the     daily necessities we can't produce. [12:09] Emle     However, since that still consumes Mana, [12:12] Emle     our balance between input and     output is a little poor there. [12:15] Atou     Using Mana on Emergency Production     is just too convenient, isn't it? [12:19] Atou     Still, it's a necessary expense,     so we'll keep using it. [12:23] Atou     We'll want to prioritize Buildings and     Research that increase the production of Mana. [12:29] Atou     Good work managing that too. [12:31] Emle     Thank you very much. [12:33] Atou     Now that the topic of Mana has come     up, let's discuss our Research. [12:38] Moltar     We've completed Research on Military Magic. [12:41] Moltar     I'm the only one capable     of using it at present, [12:44] Moltar     but my subordinates will eventually     be able to use it with more training. [12:47] Moltar     I believe that casting powerful magic with     the Ruin Mana being provided by the Palace [12:52] Moltar     will be crucial for our future! [12:55] Moltar     Though, given our king's policies, I     doubt we'll be using it very proactively. [13:01] Atou     That's true. [13:02] Atou     Ruin's military magic is quite useful, [13:05] Atou     but it has absolutely no     use in domestic affairs. [13:10] Atou     For our Research, [13:11] Atou     let's also proceed as planned and move on to     the Six Major Elements in the Magic Tree. [13:15] Atou     There isn't much merit to be had     from researching anything else yet. [13:19] Takuto     It does mean we'll be slanted towards magic, [13:22] Takuto     but specializing in a particular field [13:24] Takuto     is an orthodox national strategy. [13:27] Atou     Lastly, that brings us to our military. [13:30] Gia     Head Warrior Gia reporting in. [13:34] Gia     We have a total of five new Long-legged     Bugs added to our forces. [13:39] Gia     They are primarily out surveying the     uncharted territory surrounding the Accursed Lands. [13:44] Gia     However, unlike inside the Accursed Lands,     the land beyond the forest is all plains. [13:49] Gia     We're focused on maintaining stealth, [13:51] Gia     so we're currently unable to     make any bold investigations. [13:54] Atou     Good. Our king has been given a detailed     report about our surroundings. [14:00] Atou     Considering our need for stealth, [14:01] Atou     please have the Long-legged Bugs     assigned to patrolling our periphery. [14:04] Gia     You want me to put all of them on that, then? [14:07] Atou     I'm sufficient for defending     our nation for the time being. [14:11] Atou     You witnessed it for yourself, didn't you? [14:15] Gia     Yes! [14:16] Atou     Furthermore, we've officially     decided to produce a new Hero. [14:23] Takuto     I'm planning to summon     Isla, Queen of Bugs. [14:29] Atou     How are we doing on the Resources     necessary to produce Isla? [14:33] Moltar     I'll give the report on that. [14:36] Moltar     We've already secured enough     lumber and rations for it, [14:39] Moltar     and we've finished transporting     them to the ritual site. [14:43] Takuto     That means Mana is all that's left. [15:02] Atou     That concludes today's agenda. [15:05] Atou     King Takuto, what do you think? [15:08] Takuto     I have no issues with our plans. [15:09] Takuto     You're all doing incredibly well. SIGN    New Production and Research has been chosen. SIGN    Building! Clinic SIGN    Researching! Six Major Elements SIGN    Producing! Isla, Queen of Bugs [15:27] Maria     I ran into you. [15:30] Caria     W-We're sorry! [15:38] Caria     Ah... [15:39] Maria     We tore it... [15:43] Takuto     It's all right. [15:50] Maria     King... [15:51] Takuto     Hmm? [15:52] Maria     My king, are you a bad person? [15:54] Takuto     Well, my alignment is evil. [15:57] Maria     Then why aren't you killing? [16:00] Takuto     Killing who? [16:02] Maria     Us. [16:03] Takuto     Huh? [16:04] Caria     U-Uh, well, my king, [16:07] Caria     my big sister is asking why     our great and mighty king [16:12] Caria     is showing children like us such mercy. [16:17] Takuto     B-Because you're taking care of me? [16:20] Caria     Big Sis is mad that you're being     so kind when you're a bad person. [16:25] Takuto     Uh... [16:27] Takuto     Hmm... [16:29] Takuto     Let me tell you about something! [16:31] Takuto     Listen well, okay? [16:33] Takuto     A good person [16:34] Takuto     is only allowed to do what's right. [16:37] Takuto     They can't hurt others, [16:39] Takuto     and they can't steal things     from others either. [16:41] Takuto     Murdering people is out of the question. [16:43] Maria     Yeah! [16:44] Caria     Naturally. [16:45] Takuto     Then what about a bad person? [16:47] Takuto     What do you think they should do? [16:49] Maria     They have to do bad things! [16:51] Caria     They commit heinous atrocities! [16:53] Takuto     You're wrong. [16:54] Takuto     They're allowed to do anything! [16:57] Takuto     They can do good things, and     they can do bad things too. [17:00] Takuto     You see, bad people [17:02] Takuto     are very selfish and free. [17:04] Takuto     They're allowed to believe     in what they think is right [17:07] Takuto     and ignore what others think [17:09] Takuto     as they press on without looking back. [17:12] Takuto     That's what an evil person truly is. [17:14] Takuto     So it's perfectly fine for     me to be kind to you two! [17:17] Caria     That's unfair! [17:19] Takuto     Of course it is. [17:20] Takuto     I'm a bad person, after all. [17:23] Maria     Won't you be punished one day? [17:25] Takuto     If I kill the good person who     comes to punish me first, [17:28] Takuto     then I won't be. [17:29] Twins     What?! [17:33] Takuto     You messed up on purpose all     those times, didn't you? [17:38] Caria     Big Sis and I... [17:41] Maria     ...should have died. [17:43] Takuto     I see. [17:45] Takuto     But you're afraid of death? [17:51] Takuto     They can't forgive themselves for surviving     due to their mother's death. [17:55] Takuto     So they're seeking salvation through death. [17:58] Takuto     I guess they thought that if they     did things to anger their king, [18:01] Takuto     then I would kill them as punishment. [18:10] Takuto     You two are here now for a reason. [18:14] Takuto     You're here because someone did what     they had to for you to survive. [18:17] Takuto     You understand who that was, don't you? [18:21] Maria     But it's painful. [18:24] Caria     It hurts. [18:26] Takuto     What did your mother say to you? [18:31] Twins     "Live on." [18:33] Takuto     Doing bad things isn't always wrong. [18:36] Takuto     Both of you and your mother [18:39] Takuto     did the right thing. [18:41] Takuto     Be proud. [18:43] Takuto     You two are still here because your     mother's love triumphed over fate. [18:48] Maria     My king, what are we... [18:52] Caria     What are we supposed to do now?! [18:58] Takuto     You should live your lives as you please. [19:01] Takuto     So your mother's love will be rewarded, [19:04] Takuto     and so your mother can be proud of you. [19:07] Takuto     Remember this. [19:08] Takuto     You two are free. [19:10] Takuto     You're free to do anything, [19:12] Takuto     and you don't have to do     anything for forgiveness. [19:15] Takuto     So long as you behave in a way     your mother would be proud of, [19:18] Takuto     then I'll praise everything about you. [19:24] Takuto     You don't have to hold it in. [19:42] Atou     King Takuto, our investigation is— [19:44] Takuto     Shh! [19:46] Atou     You've grown awfully close to them. [19:49] Takuto     Yeah, we have grown closer. [19:54] Takuto     More importantly, your report! [19:56] Atou     Oh, pardon me. [19:58] Atou     It's about that city. [20:00] Atou     Shall we go somewhere else? [20:05] Atou     It's a city of Forngawn, a neutral, multiracial     nation composed primarily of humans and beastmen. [20:12] Atou     Apparently, the city is named Dragontan. [20:15] Atou     The nation uses a parliamentary system [20:17] Atou     run by shamans known as "Staff Holders." [20:21] Takuto     A multiracial nation will incorporate     several cultures and ideologies, [20:26] Takuto     so diplomacy should be promising. [20:28] Atou     Yes. [20:29] Takuto     Though this is a rather remote city. [20:32] Takuto     I wonder why they built a     city in a place like this? [20:34] Takuto     It would cost a great deal to ensure     trade and distribution of goods out here. [20:38] Atou     I do have something to report on that front. [20:43] Atou     It would seem there's a Dragon     Vein Mine within the city. [20:47] Takuto     Oh? [20:49] Atou     A Dragon Vein Mine is     capable of producing Mana, [20:52] Atou     so I believe we should     secure it as best we can. [20:55] Atou     Also, it seems Dragontan is currently     in a state of high alert. [21:01] Atou     We were only able to observe from afar, [21:04] Atou     but we confirmed attacks from     Barbarians like Ogres and Goblins. [21:08] Atou     They seemed to be struggling     desperately to respond to them. [21:12] Takuto     Do you think they'll get     reinforcements from their homeland? [21:14] Atou     There were none in the regions     we were able to observe. [21:17] Atou     The city is in rather detached lands, [21:19] Atou     so they probably can't     send any reinforcements. [21:21] Takuto     If they're under attack, [21:24] Takuto     there's a chance     they're generating refugees. [21:26] Atou     Yes. [21:27] Atou     If we're able to welcome them in, [21:30] Atou     then we might be able to     increase our population. [21:32] Takuto     And if we help them, [21:34] Takuto     then even the Dragon Vein Mine... [21:37] Atou     Then for our next turn... [21:40] Takuto     We're dispatching diplomats to     the neutral nation of Forngawn! [23:30] Tonukapoli     You're not human, are you? [23:36] Atou     Correct. 7 - Please Be My Friend!

[02:42] Atou     Have everyone wait on standby. [02:44] Gia     As you wish. [02:47] Tonukapoli     She's not someone we can beat. Though... [02:52] Tonukapoli     If this standoff goes on, then     our soldiers might act rashly. [03:00] Pepe     Do you mind if I step in?! [03:02] Pepe     Good afternoon! [03:03] Pepe     My name is Pepe! [03:05] Pepe     Could you tell me your name?! [03:13] Tonukapoli     This fool! [03:18] Atou     I'm surprised you would seek an     audience with our king as well. [03:22] Atou     We had only just sent a delegation     to Dragontan ourselves. [03:27] Tonukapoli     So that's why we happened upon each other? [03:30] Pepe     That's right, Atou! [03:33] Pepe     We actually went through many     adventures on our way here! [03:36] Atou     Yes. [03:36] Pepe     Of course, they were all resolved     safely thanks to my actions, [03:38] Atou     Umm... [03:39] Tonukapoli     I'm so sorry, Lady Atou. [03:40] Pepe     but I told that hill giant     that suddenly attacked us! [03:42] Tonukapoli     This boy is a fool. [03:44] Pepe     "You scoundrel, daring to invade Forngawn!" [03:45] Atou     Oh, are you sure about     leaving your men behind? [03:48] Tonukapoli     Yeah. [03:48] Pepe     "Face my magic!" [03:49] Tonukapoli     This miasma is a bit too     harsh for our soldiers, [03:51] Pepe     Then I hit it dead-on! [03:53] Pepe     A real solid blow! [03:53] Tonukapoli     so I'll have them wait outside. [03:55] Pepe     That hill giant was so pathetic. [03:56] Tonukapoli     Now, [03:57] Tonukapoli     we're about to meet the king     this exceptional monster adores. [03:58] Pepe     It gave me this dumbfounded look. [04:00] Pepe     Well, anyway, point is, if I wasn't there,     it would have destroyed Crescent Moon. [04:02] Tonukapoli     I wonder what's awaiting us. [04:14] Atou     This is our great and powerful     king, King Ira Takuto. [04:20] Tonukapoli     We're in trouble. [04:21] Tonukapoli     I can't get a full measure of him. [04:23] Tonukapoli     It's like he's darkness itself! [04:26] Tonukapoli     Well, we just had a terrifying     thing move into the neighborhood. [04:31] Tonukapoli     Who would have thought my choice     back then would backfire like this. [04:35] (Flashback) Pepe     Grass Tendril Magic! [04:46] (Flashback) Pepe     Brave defenders of Forngawn! [04:49] (Flashback) Pepe     You can rest easy now! [04:51] (Flashback) Pepe     Now that I, a Staff Holder, have arrived— [04:53] (Flashback) Pepe     Man, this is awesome! [04:57] (Flashback) Defender     Oh! Master Pepe! [04:58] (Flashback) Defender     We're saved! [04:59] (Flashback) Defender     The shaman is here to save us! [05:01] (Flashback) Pepe     That's right! Praise me more! [05:04] (Flashback) Defenders     Shaman! Shaman! Shaman! Shaman! [05:11] (Flashback) Defenders     Shaman?! [05:19] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Quagmire Magic! [05:22] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Grass Tendril Magic! [05:33] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Hurry up and finish it off! [05:35] (Flashback) Defender     R-Right! [05:41] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Look at what happened to you, Pepe! [05:43] (Flashback) Pepe     Granny Tonukapoli... [05:44] (Flashback) Pepe     Ow! [05:46] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     I told you to call me Lady     Tonukapoli, not Granny! [05:49] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     I'm still a healthy, young 240 years old! [05:52] (Flashback) Pepe     Huh? Really? [05:54] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     What would be the point of lying about that?! [05:56] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Honestly... [05:57] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     You're the only young Staff Holder! [06:00] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     You should be more aware     and act like a leader! [06:02] (Flashback) Pepe     I'll try! [06:04] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Good grief, I'm worried about your future, [06:07] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     and we're about to head     to the Accursed Lands too. [06:09] (Flashback) Pepe     We are? [06:10] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     You weren't listening to the     elders earlier, were you?! [06:13] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     They've received signs of the     apocalypse coming from there, [06:16] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     so they told us to go investigate! [06:17] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     If these Barbarian attacks keep up, [06:20] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     then sooner or later, we're finished. [06:23] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     It's worse for a detached     city like Dragontan [06:25] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     since we can't send the army there. [06:27] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     We don't know if the cause of these     attacks is in the Accursed Lands, [06:30] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     so we need to hurry. [06:32] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     Now let's hurry up and     prepare for our journey! [06:34] (Flashback) Pepe     I see! Take care, then! [06:36] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     You're coming with me too! [06:42] Tonukapoli     If I had just ignored the     elders and left Pepe behind... [06:50] Tonukapoli     I never would've brought this     child to such a dangerous place. [06:55] Pepe     Nice to meet you! [06:57] Pepe     My name is Pepe! [06:58] Pepe     Please be my friend! [07:02] Tonukapoli     Pepe! [07:05] Takuto     F-Friend?! [07:07] Tonukapoli     P-Please forgive him! [07:08] Tonukapoli     Pepe was nervous, so— [07:11] Takuto     Friends... [07:17] Takuto     Sure. [07:17] Takuto     We're friends now. [07:19] Takuto     Let's all get along. [07:20] Tonukapoli     Huh?! [07:21] Pepe     Yay! [07:25] Atou     Congratulations on making your     very first friend, King Takuto! [07:28] Atou     Now, applause! [07:30] Elves     Yeah! [07:32] Takuto     Man... [07:36] Tonukapoli     This... [07:38] Tonukapoli     is outrageous. [07:46] Caria     Here you go. [07:47] Tonukapoli     Oh, thank you. [07:54] Tonukapoli     This is... [07:55] Atou     Our nation of Mynoghra prides itself on     that being the tastiest drink in the world! [08:00] Tonukapoli     I can't believe something so     sweet exists in this world. [08:04] Tonukapoli     I've never seen such high-quality     dishware before either. [08:11] Pepe     What kind of drink is this?! [08:13] Maria     It's apple juice! [08:15] Pepe     Another, please! [08:18] Pepe     This is really, really good! [08:21] Pepe     You have amazing muscles! [08:23] Pepe     You've trained a whole lot, haven't you?! [08:26] Gia     Huh? Uh... [08:27] Pepe     Oh, watch this! [08:29] Pepe     My magic is amazing! [08:33] Moltar     Oh? [08:41] Takuto     Pepe's social skills are amazing. [08:44] Takuto     He's already started fitting     in with everyone. [08:47] Takuto     I could never pull that off. [08:50] Takuto     But friends, huh? [08:53] Takuto     It's my first time having one,     so I don't know what I should do! SIGN    Poor Communicator [08:56] Takuto     Still, these are also important     talks with Forngawn. [09:00] Takuto     I'd like to avoid getting     drawn into their pace. [09:05] Takuto     I also need to show friendly intentions     to prove that we're not hostile. [09:11] Takuto     All right! [09:13] Takuto     Pepe! [09:15] Takuto     W-Want to play a game with me? [09:25] Takuto     Everyone's giving me a stilted reaction. [09:29] Pepe     That sounds great! [09:30] Pepe     Let's do it! [09:40] Takuto     Here I go! [09:47] Pepe     I win! [09:49] Takuto     I've never played a game like     this before. This feels fresh to me. [09:54] Takuto     Let's go another round, Pepe. [09:56] Pepe     Sure thing! Let's play again! [09:59] Takuto     I won't lose this time. [10:07] Pepe     Man, you're a strong opponent! [10:10] Takuto     You picked this up fast     for a new player, Pepe. [10:13] Pepe     Your apple juice is delicious, [10:15] Pepe     and this game is fun too. [10:18] Pepe     I'm glad I came to Mynoghra! [10:23] Pepe     I know! [10:24] Pepe     Please sell this to our country! [10:26] Pepe     I bet everyone would enjoy it! [10:28] Tonukapoli     Pepe! You can't just— [10:30] Takuto     Sure. [10:32] Takuto     We were planning to open trade anyway, [10:34] Takuto     so I'm glad Pepe brought it up. [10:37] Takuto     Though there are things I need to     confirm before ironing out the details. [10:42] Takuto     It's been very fun playing with a friend. [10:46] Takuto     But from here, it's time     for national diplomacy. [10:55] Pepe     That's so good! [10:59] Pepe     Ow! [11:00] Tonukapoli     You're getting too relaxed! [11:06] Atou     By the way, Lady Tonukapoli... [11:08] Tonukapoli     Hmm? What is it, Lady Atou? [11:11] Atou     I wanted to ask what reason you     had for coming to our lands. [11:19] Tonukapoli     She's brought it up. [11:22] Tonukapoli     The truth is, lately, [11:24] Tonukapoli     our country has been repeatedly     attacked by Barbarians. [11:28] Atou     That's odd. [11:30] Atou     Barbarians should generally     avoid large cities. [11:33] Tonukapoli     That's true. [11:35] Tonukapoli     But they're coming in incredible hordes. [11:37] Tonukapoli     We came here, in part,     to further our investigation. [11:42] Takuto     So you're lacking in military might. [11:46] Tonukapoli     Did he uncover that from my attitude? [11:48] Tonukapoli     This is bad. [11:49] Tonukapoli     We won't be able to negotiate     if he knows our weakness. [11:53] Tonukapoli     Well, we're able to manage driving them off. [11:56] Tonukapoli     It's just that their behavior is odd. [11:59] Tonukapoli     So better safe than sorry, you know. [12:01] Atou     That's true. [12:02] Atou     It sounds a bit too troublesome to ignore. [12:04] Tonukapoli     Yeah. [12:06] Tonukapoli     Well, two of our strongest forces, our Staff     Holders, have been sent to investigate. [12:10] Tonukapoli     I hope you'll see that as     a sign of our confidence. [12:13] Moltar     It certainly makes sense. [12:16] Pepe     Huh? [12:19] Takuto     What's wrong? [12:20] Pepe     I thought we were sent to out to investigate [12:23] Pepe     because our country will perish if we     don't find a way to deal with them. [12:30] Tonukapoli     How could you?! [12:33] Pepe     Did I say something wrong? [12:38] Atou     Lady Tonukapoli, you have my sympathies. [12:42] Pepe     Hmm? [12:46] Atou     We have no intention of     bringing harm to Forngawn. [12:50] Tonukapoli     I'm grateful to hear that, but... [12:52] Atou     You might suspect that evil beings     like us are up to something, [12:56] Atou     but our greatest interest     is always directed inward. [13:00] Atou     In short... [13:01] Takuto     Nothing beats peace! [13:04] Atou     Yes. [13:05] Atou     Mynoghra is an evil nation that loves peace! [13:10] Tonukapoli     I see. [13:12] Atou     As for your Barbarians... SIGN    Dragontan SIGN    Mynoghra [13:15] Atou     If Dragontan falls, then we're next. [13:19] Atou     So this matter concerns us too. [13:21] Tonukapoli     Are you willing to help us then? [13:26] Tonukapoli     We went to great effort to build     that city for the Dragon Vein Mine. [13:29] Tonukapoli     We would certainly appreciate the help, but... [13:32] Atou     What do you think, my king? [13:35] Takuto     Friends should help each other. [13:37] Pepe     I knew you'd get it, Takuto! [13:39] Tonukapoli     So, what do you desire in return? [13:42] Tonukapoli     Thanks to this fool's slip, you could     take advantage of us as much as you wanted. [13:47] Atou     The Dragon Vein mine then. [13:53] Tonukapoli     So you saw through it all     from the start, then? [13:57] Atou     We're perfectly happy     with joint control of it. [14:00] Atou     It's not like we need such a     vast supply of Mana at present. [14:04] Atou     Though we would like the right to designate     which element it's converted to. [14:09] Tonukapoli     You want to convert the Dragon Vein     Mine's pure Mana into specific elements? [14:13] Tonukapoli     That's a technology that'll take     us ten more years to develop, [14:17] Tonukapoli     but I take it you've already researched it? [14:25] Tonukapoli     King Ira Takuto, Lady Atou. [14:28] Tonukapoli     Pepe's, well, he's a fool. [14:31] Tonukapoli     He's the greatest fool among us! [14:34] Tonukapoli     However, this child is     still our nation's future. [14:37] Tonukapoli     He'll eventually lead Forngawn as a     representative of the Staff Holders. [14:42] Tonukapoli     Plus, Pepe is the best judge of     character in all of our nation. [14:47] Tonukapoli     So— [14:48] Tonukapoli     Pepe! You decide! [14:51] Tonukapoli     You have that right as a Staff Holder. [14:55] Pepe     Come on, Granny. [14:57] Pepe     I said it from the beginning, didn't I? SIGN    Mynoghra and Forngawn have forged an alliance. [15:00] Pepe     I want us to be friends with     the people of Mynoghra. [15:14] Atou     Now, let's reaffirm and discuss the decisions      made during our latest negotiations. [15:21] Atou     Emle? [15:22] Emle     Yes. [15:23] Emle     We've agreed to export provisions     and toys to Forngawn. SIGN    Mynoghra SIGN    Forngawn SIGN    Food SIGN    Metal Goods, Daily Necessities,     and Other Consumables SIGN    Support Defeating the Barbarians      Attacking Dragontan SIGN    Joint Control of the      Dragon Vein Mine [15:28] Emle     In return, we'll be importing     daily necessities and metal goods. [15:33] Moltar     It will be a relief to have those since     we've been relying on our king for them. [15:39] Atou     Yes. Also, our biggest gain is obtaining     access to the Dragon Vein Mine. [15:45] Moltar     Sir Pepe's slip was most fortuitous. [15:48] Moltar     Though his rashness is slightly concerning. [15:51] Takuto     That's true. [15:53] Takuto     Though if it weren't for Pepe... [15:57] Takuto     Then our talks would have probably     ended in much more innocuous terms. [16:00] Takuto     Something as tepid as "Let's take our     time learning about each other." [16:06] Takuto     If that was the outcome, we wouldn't     be able to aid Dragontan in time. [16:11] Takuto     But what if he said that because     he was thinking that far ahead? [16:16] Atou     King Takuto? [16:20] Takuto     Let's set Pepe aside for now. [16:22] Takuto     I think he'll be fine. [16:24] Moltar     Yes. [16:25] Atou     Then getting back on track, [16:27] Atou     let's decide our policy on     future relations with Forngawn. [16:31] Caria     Umm? [16:32] Emle     Yes? Feel free to speak your mind. [16:35] Caria     What kind of country is     Forngawn in the first place? [16:38] Maria     We don't know. [16:41] All     Thank you! [16:42] Moltar     Yes, good question, indeed. [16:45] Moltar     In order to develop international relations, [16:48] Moltar     we need to learn more details     about their values and customs. [16:54] Takuto     That's a blind spot for me, [16:55] Takuto     since the game never concerned     itself with those details. [16:59] Atou     In that case, we'll need to     investigate Forngawn first. [17:03] Atou     However... SIGN    Forngawn SIGN    Dragontan SIGN    Mynoghra [17:05] Atou     Forngawn's capital, Crescent     Moon, is very far away, [17:08] Atou     so it'll take time to investigate. [17:10] Takuto     Let's put that on hold for now. [17:12] Takuto     We should prioritize Dragontan,     since it needs the aid. [17:15] Atou     Understood. [17:17] Moltar     However, we'll need some kind of formal     reason to head directly into another nation. [17:24] Maria     We're going there to play! [17:28] Emle     Uh... [17:30] Caria     That's what Pepe said, right? [17:33] Takuto     That's right! [17:34] Takuto     We can quickly send out a few people to pay our     respects before sending a formal delegation. [17:40] Moltar     In that case, [17:42] Moltar     then may I humbly ask, [17:43] Moltar     should I head there myself? [17:46] Takuto     Hmm, I think you're too important     for that to work, Moltar. [17:51] Gia     Oh, right. [17:53] Gia     He may just be a wise old man to us, [17:56] Gia     but other nations would see him as     the Chancellor and Minister of Magic. [18:00] Moltar     There were some unnecessary     comments there, but you're right. [18:03] Moltar     In that same vein, Gia would be our General, [18:05] Moltar     and Emle our Minister of Domestic Affairs. [18:07] Moltar     All of us would be too important     for a simple show of respect. [18:09] Moltar     We need someone with appropriate status, [18:11] Moltar     who we can trust, [18:12] Moltar     and who doesn't hold an official post. [18:15] Both     We'll do our best! [18:18] Takuto     Isn't that dangerous?! [18:19] Moltar     They're both candidates for leadership. [18:21] Moltar     That's neither too little     nor too great status. [18:23] Moltar     I also believe they would be the perfect     fit so they can gain experience from this. SIGN    "If you love them, let them see the world" mindset [18:28] Takuto     But isn't that dangerous?! SIGN    Protective mindset [18:31] Atou     I'll go!

SIGN    Overprotective of the King mindset [18:38] Moltar     Lady Atou, you are our king's     most trusted confidant. [18:42] Moltar     It would be an even bigger deal if you went. SIGN    Trusted Confidant [18:45] Atou     Trusted confidant... [18:47] Atou     Yes, his most trusted confidant     couldn't possibly go! [18:53] Caria     My king. [18:54] Caria     My king, you told us before, right? [18:58] Caria     That we're free. [19:00] Takuto     Yeah. [19:01] Caria     We want to prove useful to you. [19:03] Caria     That's one thing we wish     for with our freedom. [19:06] Takuto     But what if something happens to you? [19:07] Caria     We're willing to take that risk. [19:13] Maria     My king, please. [19:23] Caria     Please, my king! [19:32] Takuto     Fine. [19:33] Twins     Yay! [19:35] Atou     M-My king just caved in to the     pestering of someone other than me?! [19:40] Emle     Still, my king, [19:42] Emle     sending those two by themselves isn't... [19:44] Takuto     Yeah, no need to worry about that. [19:46] Takuto     I have something in mind for their guards. [19:55] Atou     Hmph! [19:57] Takuto     I-It's not what you think, Atou. [20:00] Takuto     I didn't just cave in to their begging... [20:02] Atou     Hmph! [20:03] Atou     You can just abandon me and go on     ahead with building your harem! [20:10] Maria     My king! [20:11] Takuto     Hmm? [20:18] Maria     You should just tell her     what you're thinking. [20:27] Takuto     Uh, Atou... [20:30] Takuto     Well, thank you. [20:33] Takuto     For thinking about me all the time. [20:39] Takuto     I really am sorry about recent events. [20:43] Takuto     I didn't mean to make     you worry so much, Atou. [20:46] Takuto     I never would have made it this far [20:47] Takuto     if I didn't have you at my side. [20:50] Atou     Oh, it's nothing. [20:51] Takuto     I need you. [20:54] Takuto     Please cheer up, Atou. [21:00] Takuto     You're the only one for me, Atou. [21:09] Takuto     You're the only one for me, Atou. [21:20] Atou     Thank you!

[02:58] Takuto     They not just treat injuries and diseases, [03:00] Takuto     but they can also fight to protect you. [03:04] Maria     Medics! [03:08] Atou     Our great king, King Ira Takuto,     has words for all of you. [03:13] Atou     Pay close attention! [03:14] Medic     Yes, ma'am! [03:17] Atou     You are to protect these two     as they head to Dragontan, [03:20] Atou     and observe the culture and the     current state of that land! [03:23] Medics     O-Oh! [03:25] Medic     Culture! [03:26] Medic     Observation! [03:27] Medic     Protecting! [03:28] Medics     What a human thing to do! [03:33] Medic     We graciously accept this     most honorable mission! [03:36] Medic     We shall all behave as humans! [03:39] Medic     And complete this mission perfectly! [03:42] Medic     After all, we are exemplary, model humans! [03:44] Medic     So carrying out tasks in a human manner... [03:48] Medic     is our forte! [03:50] Maria     Forte! [03:53] Takuto     They're quite enthusiastic. [03:55] Takuto     This is a good opportunity too, [03:57] Takuto     so maybe I should do something king-like? [04:01] Takuto     You three. [04:02] Medic     Yes! [04:03] Medic     Please give us your commands, my king! [04:06] Takuto     It's a little early, but     I'll grant you a reward for [04:09] Takuto     protecting these two and     following their orders. [04:12] All     A reward?! [04:14] Takuto     Yeah. I'll grant you names. [04:16] Takuto     Human names. [04:19] Medic     You would give us human names?! [04:22] Takuto     Ichiro. Jiro. Saburo. [04:25] Takuto     You may go by those names from now on. [04:29] Medics     Oh! [04:31] Maria     Oh! [04:33] Takuto     In this world, units have     individuality, unlike in the game. [04:37] Takuto     They're obsessed with humans too. [04:39] Takuto     So acknowledging that     individuality will likely... [04:42] Jiro     Ichiro! [04:44] Jiro     Let us honor this blessing of names     by completing our mission perfectly! [04:48] Ichiro     Indeed, Jiro! [04:50] Ichiro     That would truly be a human thing to do! [04:52] Saburo     Do not forget about me, Saburo! [04:56] Maria     Or me either! [04:59] Takuto     Did I go too far? [05:01] Atou     Perhaps. [05:03] Takuto     W-What do you think, Caria? [05:06] Takuto     Are you okay? [05:08] Caria     Y-Yes. [05:09] Caria     Um, we'll do our best. [05:13] Atou     If you're ever in trouble, [05:15] Atou     please feel free to ask me anything. [05:17] Caria     T-Thank you, Atou. [05:21] Three     Human! [05:21] Maria     Human! [05:22] Four     Human! Human! [05:32] Antelise     I'm done with this! [05:38] Antelise     There's too much work to be done as mayor! [05:41] Antelise     And here I thought I finally     managed to snag a life of freedom [05:44] Antelise     from that stiff, prim     and proper elven nation! [05:47] Antelise     I thought I'd fall in love with a handsome man [05:49] Antelise     and live happily ever after with him     while building a happy family! [05:52] Antelise     This whole world can perish! [05:55] Antelise     Right now! With all of its couples! [06:03] Antelise     What do you mean, I'm supposed to work with     the forces of darkness to protect the city?! [06:07] Antelise     I've never even heard of this Mynoghra! [06:10] Official     Excuse me, Mayor Antik. [06:13] Antelise     What?! [06:15] Antelise     Oh. [06:21] Antelise     What did you need? [06:23] Official     Oh, well... [06:25] Official     There are some people who     wish to meet you, Mayor. [06:28] Antelise     Huh? Visitors? [06:31] Antelise     Do they have an appointment? [06:33] Official     They do not. [06:34] Antelise     That so? [06:35] Antelise     Then send them away. [06:37] Antelise     My time is more precious than gold. [06:40] Antelise     Anyone who interrupts me should die! [06:42] Official     H-However, Mayor... [06:45] Antelise     What?! [06:47] Official     They say they're emissaries from Mynoghra. [06:50] Antelise     Start with that! [06:53] Antelise     That makes this the highest priority! [07:00] Antelise     Welcome to Dragontan. [07:02] Antelise     I'm Antelise Antik, and I serve as its mayor. [07:09] Antelise     Wh-What's with this aura? [07:12] Antelise     Why did the Staff Holders join     forces with these things? [07:16] Antelise     Are they idiots? [07:20] Antelise     I'm grateful that you traveled     all this way to visit. [07:24] Caria     I'm Caria Elfuur of Mynoghra. [07:28] Caria     This is my big sis, Maria Elfuur. [07:32] Maria     I'm her big sis! [07:33] Antelise     Well, well, how polite of you. [07:37] Antelise     Dark Elves... [07:39] Antelise     I had been told that Mynoghra had     welcomed them in as citizens, [07:44] Antelise     but I wonder what kind of     people these girls are? [07:48] Antelise     The three behind them warrant caution. [07:51] Antelise     Long ago, I heard about     Dark Elf assassins... [07:56] Caria     Um? [07:57] Antelise     Oh, I'm sorry for staring! [08:00] Antelise     I wish I could have welcomed you properly,     but your visit was so sudden... [08:04] Caria     No, that's fine. [08:06] Maria     Yeah, yeah. [08:07] Antelise     I appreciate that. [08:10] Antelise     What are these children doing as emissaries? [08:14] Antelise     It feels like there's something     more to these sisters... [08:17] Antelise     Hmm? Elfuur? [08:20] Antelise     Didn't Lady Tonukapoli mention something? [08:22] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     There was a pair of sisters named Elfuur [08:25] (Flashback) Tonukapoli     who the king is personally educating     to become that nation's future leaders. [08:29] Antelise     Geh?! [08:31] Caria     W-What's the matter?! [08:33] Maria     Croak? [08:34] Antelise     These two are incredibly major figures! [08:37] Antelise     What are these children doing here?! [08:40] Antelise     If I mishandle them at all,     it could become a major issue! [08:45] Antelise     Wh-What b-b-business brings you to our city? [08:49] Caria     Uh! Well?! [08:53] Jiro     My lady, may I? [08:56] Caria     Oh, yes. [08:57] Caria     What is it, Jiro? [09:00] Jiro     Mayor Antik. [09:02] Antelise     Yes?! [09:03] Jiro     Our current visit [09:05] Jiro     is in response to the invitation from Master     Pepe, the Staff Holder, to come and play. [09:12] Jiro     We are essentially students visiting to     learn about life in another nation. [09:16] Antelise     O-Oh? That's what this is? [09:19] Jiro     One could say this is but the first step     to ensure a smooth exchange in the future, [09:24] Jiro     so please understand that this     is merely a greeting. [09:27] Antelise     A greeting? [09:28] Jiro     Yes. [09:29] Jiro     These young ladies are     still young and learning. [09:32] Jiro     We would appreciate it if we     could avoid official talks. [09:37] Antelise     Is that so? [09:39] Antelise     So you're not visiting to     negotiate any agreements, then! [09:43] Jiro     We are not. [09:44] Jiro     If you would, kindly consider     us simple tourists... [09:48] Jiro     Isn't that right, young ladies? [09:50] Caria     That's right! That's right! [09:52] Maria     Yeah, yeah! [09:53] Antelise     Thank goodness! [09:55] Antelise     It's just a meet and greet! [09:57] Antelise     Though I'll need to be careful     not to offend these girls. [10:02] Antelise     In that case, please feel free to     take in the sights of our city! [10:06] Antelise     If you'd like, I could show you around. [10:08] Caria     Really?! [10:09] Caria     You'd show us around, Mayor?! [10:11] Antelise     Yes! [10:12] Antelise     I'm very familiar with every     corner of this city, after all. [10:18] Antelise     I need to get along with these girls [10:20] Antelise     and ensure they leave with a good impression! [10:23] Antelise     It's crucial for future     negotiations to go well! [10:26] Antelise     Shall we get going, then? [10:28] Antelise     Yes! I get to ditch work! [10:35] Antelise     We have many different goods available. [10:38] Antelise     Over here too. [10:39] Antelise     The food at this stall isn't     very good, so I wouldn't. [10:46] Antelise     Let's go! [10:47] Maria     Perky boobies. [10:49] Takuto     Thank goodness. [10:50] Takuto     It looks like it's going well. [10:52] Atou     King Takuto! [10:54] Atou     Your hands aren't moving. [10:57] Takuto     Sorry, sorry. [11:06] Antelise     Farewell, then! [11:10] Caria     Miss Antelise is a kind person. [11:17] Caria     Now, let's review today's investigation. [11:20] Caria     Big Sis, how did it seem to you? [11:24] Maria     Anxious. [11:26] Maria     "I have no food." [11:28] Maria     "The enemies outside are scary." [11:30] Maria     "No one's coming to save us." [11:32] Maria     "What are we going to do?" [11:34] Ichiro     That's awfully specific. [11:37] Caria     Big Sis is sensitive to     the emotions of others, [11:40] Caria     so she can get a vague idea of how they feel. [11:45] Ichiro     Oh! To have such a power! [11:48] Jiro     I see! [11:49] Jiro     So that's why she wanted this. [11:52] Caria     What is that? [11:54] Jiro     Something my lady Maria     asked me to buy for her [11:56] Jiro     while we were going through     the city this afternoon. [11:59] Maria     I got it in secret! [12:02] Maria     Grass? [12:03] Caria     Is this Popil Grass? [12:05] Caria     It has its nuts too. [12:07] Saburo     You're familiar with this, Lady Caria? [12:11] Caria     It's a plant that can cause powerful     euphoria and hallucinations. [12:14] Caria     Nearly every nation has banned its     use, possession, and cultivation. [12:20] Jiro     Ah, a narcotic? [12:22] Jiro     That's no good, young lady. [12:23] Jiro     Go throw that away. [12:25] Maria     Toss! [12:27] Caria     It's in good shape and too free     of bug holes to be a wild plant. [12:30] Caria     It was probably grown by someone. [12:33] Ichiro     And that's circulating     the markets of Dragontan? [12:37] Ichiro     That's dangerous business. [12:40] (Flashback) Antelise     Let's go! [12:46] Caria     All when Miss Antelise     is working so hard too... [12:50] Saburo     It sounds like we'll need to be cautious, [12:52] Saburo     even when we're sightseeing. [12:55] Jiro     Yes, Saburo. [12:56] Jiro     Make sure to protect the young ladies! [12:59] Ichiro     I would like to avoid any conflicts... [13:04] Maria     But humans love conflict. [13:08] Three     Wh-What?! [13:22] Caria     It's cold. [13:23] Ichiro     Young ladies, this is the Dragon Vein Mine. [13:27] Ichiro     It has been cleverly concealed with the soil, [13:29] Ichiro     but it seems they couldn't hide it all. [13:34] Caria     It's pretty. [13:37] (Flashback) Mom     Caria, Maria. [13:39] (Flashback) Mom     This world is filled with lots     of pretty things and places [13:43] (Flashback) Mom     that you don't know about yet. [13:58] Vesta     The Popil Grass grows well in this place. [14:01] Vesta     Please forgive me for imposing,     emissaries of Mynoghra. [14:07] Vesta     I run a business here in the city. [14:10] Vesta     My name is Vesta Kurklain. [14:13] Caria     Thank you for the introduction. [14:16] Caria     So what did you wish to discuss with us? [14:19] Vesta     I'm a merchant, so of course,     I'd like to discuss business. [14:25] Vesta     I've heard that this land will be     jointly contrlled by your nation. [14:29] Vesta     So, how about it? [14:31] Vesta     Would you be willing to cultivate     Popil Grass here with me? [14:35] Caria     What's the benefit for Mynoghra? [14:38] Caria     What should I report to our king? [14:41] Vesta     Popil Grass fetches a high price. [14:44] Vesta     You would be given a     portion of those earnings. [14:47] Vesta     Of course, I'd prepare     other offerings as well. [14:52] Caria     Other offerings... like what? [14:55] Vesta     This isn't a good place     to discuss that further. [14:58] Vesta     Please come to this location     after sundown today. [15:02] Vesta     We'll go into details there. [15:09] Vesta     It's nice dealing with people     who are evil-aligned. [15:13] Vesta     You're always quick to understand. [15:16] Vesta     The current mayor is so inflexible     that it makes things difficult. [15:20] Vesta     I'm sure your king would be delighted as well. [15:24] Vesta     Now then, I'll be waiting for you. [15:40] Antelise     Time sure flew by, didn't it? [15:43] Caria     Yes. [15:44] Caria     You've really taken good     care of us, Miss Antelise. [15:48] Maria     Yeah, yeah! [15:49] Antelise     It's fine, it's fine. [15:51] Antelise     I got to network with you two, after all. [15:53] Caria     We're not all that important, [15:56] Caria     but I do hope you'll rely     on us if you ever need anything. [15:59] Antelise     My, how reassuring to hear! [16:01] Antelise     In that case, please make sure you present     me in the best light to Mynoghra's king! [16:07] Caria     Of course! [16:09] Maria     Exciting! [16:12] Vesta     Pardon me. [16:16] Anetlize     Vesta?! [16:17] Anetlize     Who gave you permission to be here?! [16:18] Vesta     Now, now, Mayor. [16:21] Vesta     I received permission from the staff. Right? [16:28] Antelise     Why you... [16:32] Vesta     Now then, young ladies, may I have     your response to my previous offer? [16:36] Antelise     Huh? [16:37] Caria     You mean the proposal to     grow Popil Grass together? [16:41] Vesta     Yes. You never stopped by, [16:44] Vesta     so I came to hear your reply in person. [16:49] Antelise     You're kidding! [16:50] Antelise     These children made a deal     with Vesta behind my back?! [16:55] Antelise     If the forces of darkness join     hands with scum like him, [16:58] Antelise     then this city's finished... [16:59] Caria     What's the matter? [17:01] Antelise     Huh? [17:03] Caria     There's no way we would     work with someone like you. [17:06] Caria     I thought you would understand that [17:08] Caria     when we didn't show up to respond. [17:11] Vesta     That's quite the protest. [17:14] Caria     Miss Antelise, [17:16] Caria     would it be an issue if     we took care of these men? [17:19] Caria     If I acted out of turn and caused     a rift between our nations, [17:22] Caria     I wouldn't be able to face our king. [17:26] Antelise     S-Sure! We wouldn't mind that! [17:29] Antelise     Have at them as you please! [17:30] Antelise     These guys have been     making a mess of my city! [17:34] Antelise     Teach them a lesson! [17:40] Vesta     How unfortunate, young lady. [17:43] Maria     What's that? [17:44] Caria     It's probably a concentrate     of Popil Grass extract. [17:48] Caria     I bet a single injection of that will     make a person unable to live without it. [17:53] Antelise     What?! [17:54] Caria     Do you understand what you're doing? [17:56] Caria     If you try to lay a hand on us, [17:58] Caria     then you'll be making an     enemy out of Mynoghra. [18:01] Caria     Do you understand how foolish that is? [18:04] Caria     We may be powerless children, [18:06] Caria     but King Ira Takuto, the man who ordered     us on this mission, is an incredible king. [18:11] Vesta     I'll be fine. [18:13] Vesta     One injection of this [18:15] Vesta     and you ladies will follow my commands. [18:18] Vesta     After that, [18:19] Vesta     I'm sure this perverted     pedophile, Ira Takuto, [18:22] Vesta     will do as I say without complaint. [18:36] Vesta     Huh?! [18:39] Takuto     I never thought that unit would     prove so useful in this world. [18:47] Atou     Yes, that's so true. [18:49] Emle     Um, may I ask a question? [18:53] Emle     Why did you send the Medics as their guards? [18:55] Emle     You could have sent our Warriors, right? [18:58] Atou     They absolutely love humans, including     closely related demi-humans. [19:04] Emle     Sorry? [19:05] Atou     Because of that, they have some     rather unique abilities as a unit.

Their basic      function is the ability to heal all allied units in the same      stack every turn. Furthermore, their intense passion for      humans grants them powerful bonuses towards humans     and closely related demi-humans. However, since     Mynoghra does not have any humans, unique strategies     are required to make good use of them, which      generally proves difficult. [19:11] Atou     They excel... [19:13] Atou     Both at healing humans and killing them. [19:17] Atou     They love humans, but couldn't     quite become humans themselves. [19:21] Atou     That's what our Brain Eaters are. [19:31] Ichiro     How magnificent, Saburo! [19:34] Saburo     Yes! Such foolish adherence     to their own selfish desires! [19:37] Saburo     How truly human! [19:39] Jiro     This means that if we peel off their     skin and wear it ourselves, then...! [19:42] Ichiro     We'll become even closer     to being true humans! [19:46] Vesta     Wh-What are you people?! [19:49] Medics     Humans! [19:54] Maria     There, there. [19:55] Maria     Don't be afraid. [19:58] Caria     Please get him already. [20:00] Vesta     H-Hold on! [20:02] Vesta     You're all crooks like me, aren't you?! [20:05] Caria     Please don't group us together. [20:07] Caria     You have insulted our king. [20:10] Caria     That is the most unforgivable     thing you could've done. [20:13] Vesta     Wh-What? [20:13] Caria     I will not show mercy to Mynoghra's enemies. [20:16] Caria     I will not show mercy to     anyone who harms my big sis. [20:19] Caria     And I will never show mercy to     anyone who insults our king. [20:24] Caria     Our king taught us this: Evil     people are free to do anything. [20:29] Caria     So with that freedom and approval     of our king, I command you— [20:34] Vesta     S-Stop! [20:36] Caria     Please kill him! [20:38] Maria     Kill him! [20:39] Medics     As you command! [20:50] Ichiro     What do you think, young ladies? [20:53] Maria     So human! [20:54] Medics     Human! [20:57] Caria     Miss Antelise... [20:59] Caria     Um, I'm sorry. [21:02] Caria     For making such a mess of your room. [21:04] Antelise     Huh? [21:05] Caria     They got carried away. [21:07] Caria     We never thought those     birdbrains would go this far. [21:11] Caria     What would you like us to do about the     cleaning bill or the cost of new clothes? [21:17] Antelise     Th-That's... not an issue. [21:20] Antelise     Don't worry about it. [21:22] Caria     Thank you so much, Miss Antelise! [21:27] Antelise     Oh, this girl... [21:30] Antelise     doesn't think anything     of this gruesome scene. [21:36] Ichiro     Oh my?! [21:37] Ichiro     The mayor has wet herself! [21:40] Jiro     Heavens! We need to show     her human thoughtfulness! [21:43] Saburo     In which case, let us pee ourselves too! [21:46] Saburo     We mustn't allow the mayor     to bear such shame alone! [21:49] Maria     Peeing! [21:50] Caria     Cut it out already, you birdbrains! [21:55] Maria     Human! [21:56] Caria     You can't go doing that! [21:57] Caria     Are you trying to shame Miss Antelise     even further, you birdbrains?! [21:59] Maria     That's right! [22:01] Caria     You birdbrains are oddballs to the core! [22:02] Maria     Human! [22:03] Medic     But...

[00:06] Atou     Why did you allow those two so much freedom?! [00:11] Atou     You were watching them, weren't you?! [00:14] Takuto     Yes. [00:15] Atou     You stopped doing your work [00:16] Atou     just to them with your     shared perception, didn't you?! [00:19] Takuto     Yes. [00:20] Atou     You even had plenty of time to warn     them with your telepathy, didn't you?! [00:24] Takuto     Well, um... [00:26] Takuto     I didn't want to be too hard     on them and make them hate me. [00:29] Takuto     They're both at an impressionable age. [00:31] Atou     Are you their father?!

[00:57] Jirou     So human! [00:59] Saburou     We obtained a very human skin! [01:02] Atou     Be quiet! [01:08] Takuto     I guess the Brain Eaters were     a bad influence on them. [01:12] Atou     These two! [01:13] Atou     They eagerly gave these bird brains [01:15] Atou     the orders to do it! [01:18] Takuto     My kids are becoming delinquents... [01:20] Atou     I sent them off with extra warnings to     adhere to at least the minimum manners. [01:23] Atou     And this is the result! [01:25] Atou     None of you are to move from this spot until     you finish your reflection statements! [01:30] All     Okay. SIGN    It's Well Past Your Bedtime [03:11] Atou     Now then! [03:13] Atou     Let's begin the meeting about     what to do about Dragontan! [03:16] Takuto     I'll give you some candy. [03:18] Caria     Thank you, my king! [03:20] Maria     Yay! [03:21] Atou     You three! [03:23] Atou     Do you regret what you did at all?! [03:24] Gia     L-Lady Atou, that's enough. [03:27] Emle     I understand how you feel, [03:29] Emle     but I think moving the meeting     along is more important. [03:32] Moltar     My goodness, this is all because we     didn't teach those twins well enough. [03:37] Atou     Well... Fine. [03:40] Atou     It's true that I'm not     being as calm as usual. [03:44] Atou     The Dragontan issue does come first. [03:47] Moltar     In that case, [03:48] Moltar     Elfuur sisters, [03:50] Moltar     may we assume your investigation was     exactly as described in this report? [03:54] Caria     Yes. [03:55] Caria     We had our king look over it too, [03:57] Caria     so that should be accurate. [03:59] Moltar     Hmm. [04:00] Moltar     It would seem the city     is rather unsettled then. [04:04] Emle     They lack the resources to maintain order, [04:05] Emle     and it seems crime is on the rise. [04:08] Emle     They would likely have face some     manner of disturbance sooner or later. [04:11] Atou     On top of that, they're also facing     external attacks from Barbarians. [04:15] Atou     When it rains, it pours. [04:17] Emle     According to this report, [04:19] Emle     they're facing Goblins, Orcs,     and occasionally Hill Giants. [04:24] Gia     Goblins and Orcs aren't a problem, [04:27] Gia     but losses are unavoidable     against Hill Giants. [04:31] Moltar     They suddenly appear in groups near the city, [04:34] Moltar     steadily increasing by a     handful or so every day. [04:40] Atou     What do you mean by "suddenly appear"? [04:42] Moltar     It's probably a result of their     impaired ability to detect enemies. [04:47] Moltar     Beastmen generally have sharp senses that [04:49] Moltar     allow them to quickly detect     the approach of enemies, [04:52] Moltar     but they're likely exhausted. [04:55] Gia     Either way, [04:56] Gia     if nothing is done, then it's only a     matter of time before Dragontan falls. [04:59] Gia     I think we should dispatch a large     force as soon as possible. [05:03] Emle     I believe our Head Warrior is right on this, [05:05] Emle     but I don't agree with     splitting up our forces. [05:09] Emle     If we send our immediate     reserves to aid in defense, [05:12] Emle     then it will strain our     construction and farming. [05:16] Gia     In that case, couldn't we     send most of our Warriors? [05:19] Atou     Oh, by the way, I'll be     participating as well, [05:21] Atou     so please keep that in mind. [05:23] Emle     Huh?! [05:24] Moltar     I see. Because of your     ability to steal skills. [05:28] Atou     Yes, I should be able to     steal some useful skills, [05:30] Atou     even from weaklings like these Barbarians. [05:34] Atou     Isn't that right, King Takuto? [05:35] Takuto     Yeah. [05:36] Takuto     It's a good opportunity     to improve your strength, [05:39] Takuto     so I was planning to have you join them     the moment we decided to send troops. [05:42] Moltar     In that case, you'll need a retinue. [05:45] Moltar     Please leave that to me. [05:47] Atou     I'm certain I can entrust you with the     troublesome negotiations and coordination, [05:52] Atou     but I think we'll still need a few more men. [05:55] Moltar     I'll bring my apprentices with me. [05:57] Moltar     They can handle mundane tasks, [05:58] Moltar     but they can also easily defeat     Goblins in combat with their magic. [06:02] Atou     Understood. [06:04] Atou     I'll be counting on you, then. [06:06] Gia     In that case, our Warriors will     focus on national defense. [06:09] Emle     Honestly, I'm still a     little concerned . [06:13] Emle     Our national defense has relied     on Atou's presence so far. [06:19] Gia     I can't deny that. [06:21] Atou     To deal with that... [06:24] Takuto     We'll be making the Hero, Isla,     the cornerstone of our defense. [06:27] Three     Oh! [06:29] Atou     We're nearly finished with     production, aren't we? [06:32] Moltar     What perfect timing. [06:33] Moltar     Truly a great display     of our king's foresight! [06:36] Emle     You anticipated a situation like this from     the moment we began production, didn't you?! [06:42] Gia     Our king possesses the     power to see the future! [06:44] Takuto     It's true this was perfect timing, [06:47] Takuto     but it just happened to work out that way. [06:49] Takuto     Still... [06:52] Takuto     Sometimes, pretending to be     almighty is necessary too. [06:55] Caria     Our great king is impressive! [06:57] Maria     Clap, clap, clap! [06:59] Atou     King Takuto, what do you think? [07:01] Atou     Please feel free to comment. [07:03] Takuto     I made the right call allowing the Dark     Elves to participate in our meetings. [07:08] Takuto     This is nothing like when I had     to think of everything alone. [07:12] Takuto     So long as I'm managing     a real civilization, [07:15] Takuto     their contributions are vital. [07:18] Takuto     Hmm, it's perfect. [07:20] Takuto     It's a great strategy. [07:22] Takuto     Please keep it up. [07:24] Moltar     To receive your praise     is our greatest delight! [07:27] Gia     I swear to live up to your     expectations, my king! [07:30] Emle     Please count on me! [07:32] Both     Hip, hip, hooray! [07:38] Takuto     Saying a few words at the end     improved their motivation. [07:41] Takuto     Unlike in the game, [07:43] Takuto     it's the role of the leader     to draw out their potential. [07:47] Takuto     It's a difficult task,     but incredibly rewarding. [07:56] Atou     A new Hero is finally going to be born! [07:59] Atou     Oh, how I've long awaited this day! [08:01] Takuto     We were forced to ration quite a bit     to secure the resources for this, [08:05] Takuto     but now that will all pay off. [08:07] Maria     We'll get to eat our fill! [08:09] Caria     My king, what kind of person is     the Hero you'll be summoning? [08:14] Takuto     That's a surprise to look forward to. [08:18] Takuto     Atou, what do you think will happen to Isla? [08:21] Atou     She's the first Hero we're summoning     since coming to this world. [08:25] Atou     I can't even begin to     predict what will happen. [08:28] Takuto     I think it'll probably be fine though. [08:30] Atou     On the off-chance that she does     try to revolt against you, [08:33] Atou     I'll protect you with my life. [08:38] Takuto     I'm able to face this critical moment [08:41] Takuto     because you're with me and     willing to go that far. [08:43] Takuto     But I wouldn't be able to     resummon you if I lose you, [08:47] Takuto     so please don't sacrifice yourself. [09:14] Atou     King Takuto always prepares     for even the slightest risk, [09:22] Atou     but frankly, I think the     chances of that are slim. [09:30] Atou     There won't be any issues. [09:34] Atou     Isn't that right, Isla? [09:45] Isla     Oh great and mighty king, [09:47] Isla     you do me a great honor by granting me     this audience with you here in this place. [09:54] Isla     I am Isla, the one who rules all manner of     bugs, and my body is quivering with true joy SIGN    Production of the Hero, Isla, Queen of Bugs, is complete. SIGN    All Bug Units in this world have gained +2 Strength. [10:00] Isla     at the prospect of serving you once more. [10:04] Takuto     Isla... [10:05] Takuto     It's been a long time! [10:07] Takuto     Do you recognize me? [10:09] Isla     Oh my! Oh my! [10:11] Isla     I see. So that's what's going on! [10:14] Isla     Of course I remember you, King Ira Takuto! [10:19] Atou     Allow me to ask to be certain, Isla. [10:22] Atou     Do you truly mean your promise to serve him? [10:26] Isla     Oh my. Silly little Atou! [10:30] Isla     You're so cute, acting all tough! [10:33] Atou     A-Answer the question! [10:35] Isla     Of course I do. [10:37] Isla     The days I've spent with King Takuto     have been etched into this body! [10:42] Takuto     So you remember me! [10:44] Isla     Yes. [10:45] Isla     You were the only one able to fully     draw out my power, after all. [10:50] Isla     I would never forget you. [10:52] Isla     And you were always King Takuto's     most favorite, little Atou! [10:57] Atou     I-I get it, so enough already! [11:01] Isla     By the way, Master, [11:02] Isla     would you be kind enough to explain     the current situation to me? [11:07] Takuto     Of course. We'll talk in the palace. [11:11] Isla     I see. [11:12] Isla     So that's what's going on. [11:14] Takuto     Frankly, there's tons     that I don't understand, [11:17] Takuto     but thanks to Atou, I've     managed to get this far. [11:21] Atou     Oh, please. [11:22] Atou     It's only because you were     here with me, King Takuto... [11:25] Atou     If I were here by myself, I     would have committed suicide. [11:29] Takuto     Atou... [11:30] Atou     King Takuto... [11:32] Isla     Oh my. I shouldn't be watching this. [11:35] Isla     Regardless, I understand our strategy. [11:38] Isla     I'll protect our peaceful     nation in these strange lands. [11:42] Isla     That is the duty you've entrusted to me. [11:45] Takuto     Yeah. [11:45] Takuto     You're our defense Hero, after all. [11:48] Isla     In which case, our attack     Hero will be the one [11:51] Isla     to destroy the Barbarians     in the city of Dragontan. [11:55] Atou     Sending me is the best call, [11:58] Atou     but I'll miss you while I'm out doing it. [12:00] Takuto     I'll miss you too, Atou. [12:03] Takuto     But you're the only one     I can ask to handle it. [12:06] Takuto     Honestly, I'm real worried. [12:08] Takuto     I don't know if I'll be able to talk     to the Dark Elves without you. [12:11] Atou     We've always been together     since we came to this world, [12:15] Atou     and now we'll be apart... [12:17] Atou     King Takuto! [12:18] Takuto     Atou! [12:20] Isla     I shouldn't be watching this. [12:25] Atou     I'm heading out! [12:26] Atou     I promise I'll come back! [12:29] Takuto     Yeah. I'll be waiting for you. [12:42] Takuto     She's gone. [12:44] Isla     Well then, [12:45] Isla     I suppose I should be getting to work now. [12:48] Takuto     I'm counting on you, Isla. [12:50] Isla     I'm raring to go! [12:52] Isla     I'll do my part so you can enjoy this     new game, my great King Ira Takuto! [12:58] Isla     Leave all the details to me! [13:11] Isla     King Takuto, you really can't do     anything on your own, can you? [13:17] Isla     The sun has been up for a while now. [13:19] Isla     I can't believe you still     weren't up at this hour. [13:22] Isla     What have you been doing up until now? [13:24] Maria     The king always slept in until noon. [13:27] Caria     On days he wasn't up by noon, [13:30] Caria     either we came to wake him or Atou did. [13:33] Isla     What a big child you're being. [13:35] Takuto     But... [13:37] Isla     No more buts, King Takuto! [13:40] Isla     You are the leader of the great     Mynoghra, the King of Ruin! [13:44] Isla     How do you think others will see you [13:46] Isla     if you're sleeping in until noon     and having women come wake you up? [13:49] Isla     Make sure you get up in     the morning from now on. [13:53] Takuto     I'll do my best. [13:55] Caria     You're completely different from Atou.     She always lets our king do as he pleases. [14:01] Isla     That reminds me! [14:02] Isla     King Takuto, could I kindly borrow     little Caria and Maria for a bit? [14:07] Takuto     I don't mind, but why? [14:10] Isla     I'm not very familiar with     Mynoghra's main facilities yet, [14:14] Isla     so I was hoping to ask     them to show me around. [14:17] Takuto     So she wants to get a look in person     instead of just reading a map [14:21] Takuto     to get a solid picture     of our national defenses? [14:24] Takuto     Yeah, all right. [14:26] Takuto     Could I ask that of you two? [14:27] Maria     You can! [14:28] Caria     I'll graciously accept it. [14:30] Isla     Thank you so much, you two. [14:31] Isla     You're very good girls, aren't you? [14:34] Isla     Master, your people will be coming     to seek your approval soon, [14:38] Isla     so please look sharp. [14:40] Takuto     R-Roger that. [14:42] Emle     Pardon me! [14:44] Isla     Well, we'll be going now. [14:46] Maria     Going! [14:47] Caria     Yes. [14:52] Emle     I wanted to ask for you to look over     the revised assignment of our labor [14:55] Emle     and grant your approval. [14:57] Takuto     This might be the first time I'm talking     to someone other than Atou alone... [15:02] Emle     Umm, are there any shortcomings     in my proposal? [15:06] Takuto     No, no, no! [15:07] Takuto     It's all right! [15:08] Takuto     I think you've done well! [15:10] Emle     Really?! Thank you so much! [15:13] Takuto     Yeah, this is good. [15:15] Takuto     But starting next week, reduce the manpower     assigned to gathering and redirect it. [15:20] Emle     Oh! [15:21] Emle     We're adjusting how much we gather now that     we're finished summoning the Hero! [15:25] Emle     I'll be sure to do that! [15:27] Takuto     Phew... [15:28] Takuto     There's nowhere to run in     a one-on-one conversation... [15:30] Gia     Pardon me! [15:32] Gia     I've come to get your approval on     the training plan for our Warriors! [15:37] Takuto     This is incredibly tiring,     but I'll do my best. [15:42] Isla     Now, would you please be so kind as to tell     me everything you know about our facilities? [15:47] Maria     Everything! [15:48] Caria     That's the government office. [15:50] Caria     It's where the people file paperwork     and reports get written. [15:54] Isla     Nice and orderly. [15:55] Isla     I love that. [15:59] Isla     Oh my, little Emle? [16:00] Isla     You seem busy. Are you all right? [16:04] Emle     Can you believe it? [16:05] Emle     Gia broke our training equipment again! [16:08] Emle     The rate he burns through it is absurd! [16:11] Emle     I'm at my limit trying to scrape     together the budget! [16:15] Emle     I'm already insanely     busy with Moltar gone too, [16:19] Emle     and he just had to give me more damn work! [16:22] Isla     I'll give you head pats, so no     more filthy language, okay? [16:27] Emle     Ahh, so comforting... [16:30] Isla     And I'll give our Head     Warrior a scolding later. [16:33] Emle     Thank you so much. [16:36] Emle     Also, when you have some time, [16:37] Emle     could I please ask for your     advice on our next Building? [16:41] Isla     Yes, if you're happy with my help. [16:51] Gia     Put your heart into it! [16:57] Gia     Do you think you can protect our     king with such sloppy form?! [17:01] Gia     I'm going to retrain you all up from scratch! [17:04] Isla     Before you go retraining them, [17:05] Isla     you should recount your stock of equipment. [17:08] Gia     I-I'm sorry! [17:11] Gia     When I get heated up over     my training, I just... [17:13] Isla     Forgetting yourself so quickly is     proof that you're still a child. [17:17] Isla     If you want to protect our king, you     need to cultivate a cool head too. [17:21] Gia     Ah, please stop that, Lady Isla... [17:24] Gia     You're hurting my authority     as Head Warrior... [17:27] Maria     Head pats look so nice. [17:30] Isla     Oh my, what's that sound? [17:32] Maria     Dinner! [17:33] Caria     Let's all go together, Isla. [17:42] Isla     They're distributing food, I see. [17:44] Caria     Yes. [17:45] Caria     This is less wasteful than     having everyone make their own. [17:48] Maria     I'll go line up! [17:50] DarkElf     Lady Isla! [17:51] DarkElf     If you'll be eating, [17:52] DarkElf     then please use these! [17:54] DarkElf     We went and borrowed the dishware     for visiting emissaries. [17:57] Isla     I'm very happy for your consideration, [18:01] Isla     but I'll use the same dishware you all are. [18:04] DarkElf     N-No way! [18:06] DarkElf     That would be disrespectful! [18:07] Isla     I'm a defense Hero. [18:10] Isla     Protecting this nation means     protecting its people. [18:12] Isla     I can only fulfill my duty [18:14] Isla     when I'm able to share the perspective     and sentiments of our people. [18:20] Caria     What is it, Big Sis? [18:26] Isla     I wonder where those cute twins ran off to? [18:29] Maria     Here! We're giving it to you! [18:32] Isla     A plate? [18:33] Isla     Oh my! [18:36] Caria     We want you to use it. [18:37] Maria     It's a special plate that's     the same as everyone else's! [18:40] Isla     My! [18:41] Isla     My, my! [18:42] Isla     What adorable little girls you are! [18:46] Caria     We finally got you to give us head pats too. [18:49] Caria     We were feeling a little     jealous of everyone else. [18:51] Isla     I bet eating from such a lovely     dish will be a fantastic treat. [18:56] Isla     I promise to treasure it my whole life. [19:06] Isla     If we were to grow Living     Reeds on the border here, [19:11] Isla     we'd have flawless defenses     against intruders. [19:20] Isla     Oh, my, my. What's the matter? [19:22] Isla     It's well past your bedtime. [19:24] Caria     I woke up. I couldn't sleep. [19:27] Isla     I see. You too, Maria? [19:30] Maria     Caria was having a bad dream. [19:32] Isla     You're such a kind big sister,     caring for your little sister. [19:38] Isla     Would you like to tell     me why you can't sleep? [19:44] Caria     We have these dreams. [19:46] Maria     Dreams of fun times. [19:48] Maria     Dreams of our mother. [19:51] Caria     I know that we have to move on. [19:54] Caria     But the scenes in our dreams     are so warm and comforting. [19:56] Caria     Then we wake up and remember that it's all gone, [19:59] Caria     and it hurts so much. [20:02] Maria     So whenever one of us is     crying from our dreams, [20:05] Maria     the other wakes to be with her. [20:08] Isla     So that's why. [20:10] Caria     But it's okay. [20:12] Caria     We have those dreams much less     frequently than we used to. [20:16] Caria     Tonight was the first time in a long while. [20:19] Maria     We're sorry for worrying you. [20:21] Maria     We'll go back to sleep in a bit. [20:25] Isla     I just had a great idea! [20:27] Isla     Why don't I sleep with you two from now on? [20:30] Caria     Huh? [20:31] Maria     Uh... [20:32] Isla     Then when you wake up, [20:35] Isla     you'll at least have me there with you. [20:37] Isla     I'll always be here for you two. [20:41] Isla     I promise. [20:44] Maria     So warm. [20:46] Caria     Just like those times... [20:49] Isla     So rest easy. [20:51] Isla     Now, come sleep in your Isla's arms. [21:02] Isla     After discussing matters with little Emle, [21:04] Isla     I'm recommending the Learning     Institute as our next Building.

[21:08] Takuto     That sounds good to me. [21:09] Takuto     It's one we can't do without anyways, [21:11] Takuto     so we'll plan to build the     Living Reeds after that.

[11:34] Takuto     It's a famous game that's said to     be the progenitor of most PC RPGs. [11:39] Atou     An RPG? [11:41] Atou     Then you mean the reason they     suddenly appeared was— [11:43] Takuto     Yeah. [11:44] Takuto     Because there's no warning for the random     encounters with enemies in Brave Questus*. [11:49] Takuto     I'm thinking they took advantage of that. [11:52] Isla     I had feared there might be     other beings similar to us, [11:57] Isla     but I never expected they'd come from     an entirely different genre of game. [12:00] Takuto     The odds were likely enough. [12:03] Takuto     "Witches." [12:04] Takuto     That information we gained from that     paladin revealed the name of a unit [12:08] Takuto     that was never part of Eternal Nations. [12:13] Isla     Still, Master, [12:14] Isla     you've played Brave Questus before, right? [12:18] Isla     So that means you already know     how we can conquer our enemy. [12:23] Takuto     Exactly. [12:24] Takuto     Atou, can you hear me? [12:26] Takuto     Of course, King Takuto! [12:28] Takuto     I'm going to tell you how*     to conquer our enemy now. [12:32] Atou     Yes! [12:40] DemonLord     Go forth and conquer. [12:47] IceRock     Flamin, did the Demon Lord issue any orders? [12:52] Flamin     Yeah, he did, Ice Rock! [12:54] Flamin     Same as always. Nothing new! [12:56] IceRock     I see. [12:58] Flamin     All the monsters, all the tactics! [13:00] Flamin     They're all free for us     to command as we please! [13:03] IceRock     What?! [13:04] IceRock     Such faith in us must be rewarded! [13:07] IceRock     We have been most fortunate though. [13:10] IceRock     After we were suddenly summoned to this land, [13:13] IceRock     all of its Orcs and Goblins have     joined our Demon Lord's forces. [13:18] Flamin     The world may be different, [13:20] Flamin     but our Demon Lord's majesty hasn't waned! [13:23] IceRock     Yes, as expected from our great ruler. [13:26] IceRock     He's truly the one fit to govern this world. [13:32] Flamin     What's wrong? [13:33] IceRock     If I may ask a foolish question, [13:35] IceRock     what happened to our ambitions     for the world we came from? [13:41] Flamin     None of that even matters, does it, Ice Rock? [13:45] Flamin     Our priority right now is carrying     out the Demon Lord's orders, [13:48] Flamin     right? [13:51] IceRock     Indeed. Forgive me. [13:53] IceRock     All forces, charge! [13:55] IceRock     We'll wipe out that city [13:57] IceRock     and offer the despair and     suffering of its people [14:00] IceRock     up to our Demon Lord! [14:07] IceRock     What will you be doing? [14:09] Flamin     I'll pass. [14:11] Flamin     You can have the honor of leading them. [14:13] IceRock     I see. Many thanks! [14:21] Flamin     Well, now... [14:22] Flamin     Time for me to go, [14:25] Flamin     so I can see to my own goals. [14:33] IceRock     Crush them in one fell swoop! [14:46] IceRock     What?! [14:47] IceRock     What happened?! [14:49] IceMage     We believe it was our enemy's spell! [14:51] IceRock     A spell?! [14:52] IceRock     Impossible! [14:53] IceRock     Such a large-scale spell doesn't exist! [14:55] IceMage     I find it hard to believe as well, but... [15:01] IceRock     The Orcs and Goblins are suffering, [15:05] IceRock     while pure Demons like     us are gaining strength? [15:08] IceRock     Is this spell the work of someone     aligned with evil forces? [15:12] IceMage     Sir Ice Rock, [15:14] IceMage     we believe this spell     is the work of the Hero. [15:16] IceRock     Silence! [15:17] IceRock     Do not speak that name! [15:19] Atou     The Hero? Oh? [15:21] Atou     So you all really are from an RPG. [15:30] IceRock     Why, you! Who are you?! [15:33] Atou     The warrior of ice? [15:35] Atou     Then you must be Ice Rock,     one of the Four Generals? [15:39] IceRock     How do you know my name?! [15:41] IceRock     Answer me, wench! [15:42] IceRock     Who are you?! [15:44] Atou     I come from the 4X strategy     game, Eternal Nations. [15:48] Atou     I serve our great and mighty     king, King Ira Takuto, [15:52] Atou     and I am known as Sludge Atou. [15:55] Atou     I am the one [15:57] Atou     who will slaughter you all! [16:06] Antelise     Bring out every arrow we have! [16:07] Antelise     Evacuate the citizens to     the northwestern blocks! [16:11] Antelise     Once we've secured an escape     route, we'll abandon the city! [16:15] Moltar     There's no need for you to go that far. [16:19] Antelise     Elder Moltar! [16:21] Moltar     You have us here on your side. [16:23] Antelise     We're facing a huge army! [16:25] Antelise     They're in disarray from     your spell right now, [16:28] Antelise     but that's just stalling them! [16:29] Antelise     Our current forces can't hope to repel them! [16:32] Antelise     Huh? [16:38] Moltar     That would be Lady Atou. [16:41] Antelise     Atou did that? [16:43] Moltar     Yes. [16:44] Moltar     That woman is the proud Hero of Mynoghra. [16:48] Moltar     Now that she's taken to the battlefield, [16:50] Moltar     there's no chance of defeat. [16:52] Moltar     I'm certain she'll claim the     head of our enemy's general. [16:56] Moltar     Without their general, such an     army is but a mob of riffraff. [16:59] Moltar     We can neutralize them easily     enough with our current forces. [17:12] Antelise     So this... [17:14] Antelise     is Mynoghra? [17:35] IceRock     Why, you! [17:41] Atou     It's just as King Takuto predicted. [17:45] Atou     Their attack range?

SIGN    Takuto SIGN    Command SIGN    Fight               Spell                    Run                Item SIGN    Devil [17:48] Takuto     Battles in RPGs are between     parties of small numbers. [17:52] Takuto     But in our 4X strategy game,     combat is on the scale of armies. [17:56] Takuto     So a unit's attacks target the     entirety of an enemy's army. [18:01] Takuto     This difference should work     greatly to our advantage. [18:05] Takuto     It doesn't matter that you'll     be facing a large army. [18:08] Takuto     Atou, [18:08] Takuto     they're no match for you! [18:13] IceRock     Why do you interfere?! [18:15] IceRock     You are evil as well! [18:17] IceRock     You should be bowing before our Demon Lord and     join us in spreading his reign to the world! [18:22] Atou     What? [18:23] Atou     Spread his reign to the world? [18:25] Atou     Oh, you're talking about     world conquest, right? [18:28] IceRock     Yes! [18:30] IceRock     We seek to create a world for us Demons! [18:32] IceRock     One without humans! [18:33] Atou     What would be the point of doing that? [18:36] Atou     It's already rough enough with the     mountain of work I have to handle now.

SIGN    Let's Launch Our Counterattack [02:58] Messenger     My king! [03:00] Messenger     Enemy forces have entered the Accursed Lands! [03:02] Takuto     Yeah, I know. [03:05] Messenger     Please forgive me. [03:07] Messenger     Given the situation, I thought     I should report to be sure. [03:11] Isla     It's all right. Our king has the power to know     everything that happens within his domain. [03:16] Isla     Our main forces, including     Gia, are already on the move. [03:21] Isla     We'll be moving to the     residential area as well, [03:24] Isla     so you should make haste back to your post. [03:27] Messenger     Yes! Understood! [03:30] Caria     My king... [03:32] Maria     Are things bad? [03:33] Takuto     No, we're fine. [03:36] Isla     Master has me here, after all. [03:39] Isla     There's nothing to be worried about. [03:42] Takuto     It is a little unpleasant though. [03:45] Isla     Yes. [03:47] Isla     I didn't think they would attack us here. [03:50] Isla     What shall we do? [03:51] Isla     There's a chance that the enemy's leader, [03:54] Isla     this "Demon Lord," is another     player like you, Master. [03:58] Takuto     So what if they are? [04:01] Takuto     It doesn't matter if they're a player or not. [04:04] Takuto     Peace between us would be     difficult at this point. [04:07] Takuto     Atou's already taken down one     of their Four Generals too. [04:11] Takuto     We'll crush them with our full might, Isla. [04:14] Isla     As you command, my king. [04:19] Takuto     Now then, let's launch our counterattack. [04:26] Takuto     Let's confirm our forces. SIGN    Isla, Queen of Bugs [04:29] Takuto     First, we have you, Isla. [04:31] Isla     Yes. I will not bring shame     to my title of Defense Hero. SIGN    Head Warrior Gia [04:37] Takuto     Next, we have the Dark Elf     Warriors led by Gia. [04:41] Takuto     There aren't many of them, but     their morale is at its peak. SIGN    Brain Eaters [04:44] Isla     We also have the Brain Eaters. [04:47] Isla     We only have three of them, [04:49] Isla     but they possess healing abilities. [04:52] Isla     I believe they'll prove     reliable in this situation. [04:55] Maria     Human! SIGN    Larvae [04:56] Takuto     Lastly, we have the Larvae     you've given birth to. [05:00] Isla     I gave birth to Larvae intended for labor, [05:02] Isla     but they should be able     to fight to some degree. [05:05] Isla     My presence here will supplement     their abilities after all. [05:11] Isla     Perhaps I should have anticipated     this and birthed some Combat Larvae. [05:17] Takuto     There's no point in thinking about that now. [05:20] Caria     That's right! [05:21] Caria     Everyone is grateful to the Larvae! [05:24] Maria     Uh-huh! [05:25] Isla     Oh my, thank you girls. [05:27] Isla     Let me give you a hug in thanks! [05:36] Emle     My king. [05:36] Takuto     Emle? [05:38] Takuto     What is it? [05:40] Emle     We've completed the evacuation of     those who won't join the battle. [05:44] Takuto     Good work. [05:45] Takuto     We'll be heading there too,     so we'll join you there later. [05:49] Emle     Understood. I'll be waiting for you! [05:52] Takuto     Yeah. [05:53] Gia     My king. [05:54] Takuto     Gia? [05:55] Gia     I have a rough estimate on the number of     enemies who entered the Accursed Lands. [06:00] Takuto     Both Emle and Gia are able to think for     themselves and act without directions from me. [06:06] Takuto     This never would have happened in the game. [06:08] Takuto     I have reliable people working under me. [06:11] Gia     My king? [06:13] Takuto     Oh, I'm sorry. [06:14] Takuto     So how many? [06:15] Gia     I can see roughly a thousand enemies     have invaded the Accursed Lands. [06:20] Gia     In addition to Goblins and Orcs, [06:22] Gia     I've also spotted some     grotesque, unfamiliar creatures. [06:26] Takuto     You've done well. Thank you. [06:28] Takuto     Continue focusing on defending     the area around our capital. [06:31] Takuto     I'll deal with the enemies. [06:33] Gia     Understood. [06:36] Takuto     A thousand enemies, huh? [06:38] Takuto     That's certainly a lot. [06:39] Takuto     There's probably one of the     Four Generals too. [06:41] Takuto     This is looking to be a tough battle. [06:47] Isla     However, O great and mighty king, [06:50] Isla     you've already determined     our strategy, haven't you? [06:54] Takuto     Moments like these are precisely     what our Mana Resources are for. [06:57] Takuto     We're facing an RPG. [06:59] Takuto     It's time to show them the     strength of a 4X game. [07:03] Isla     By which you mean creating Units     with Emergency Production? [07:08] Isla     Using that, you could easily     overturn the difference in numbers. [07:12] Isla     Being able to produce all the Units     we want as long as we have Mana [07:16] Isla     is an awfully advantageous mechanic for us. [07:18] Takuto     Isla. [07:23] Takuto     I'm granting you the entirety     of Mynoghra's Mana reserves. [07:30] Isla     What? [07:34] Takuto     Raise your level as much as possible. [07:36] Takuto     Be sure to acquire the skills     Predation and Parasitic Eggs. [07:42] Takuto     Then use that power to overrun... [07:50] Takuto     all of our enemies! [08:00] Isla     My, my, my! [08:02] Isla     What a mean and spiteful person you're being! [08:05] Isla     Entrusting me with everything     during this crisis! [08:09] Takuto     I already have a general grasp of our     foe's power from the battle in Dragontan. [08:14] Takuto     Even if one of the Four Generals is there, [08:16] Takuto     you should be plenty capable     of dealing with them now. [08:19] Takuto     Will you show me why you're     known as our Defense Hero? [08:25] Isla     Yes, as you wish. [08:29] Isla     Isla, Queen of Bugs, [08:32] Isla     shall live up to your expectations [08:35] Isla     and thoroughly defeat     all of our foes for you. [08:42] Takuto     I'm sure you'll be fine, [08:44] Takuto     but be wary of any attacks     rooted in RPG mechanics. [08:49] Isla     That reminds me. They did catch     Atou off guard, didn't they? [08:53] Isla     I understand. [08:55] Isla     I'll be quite careful. [08:58] Caria     Mother... [08:59] Isla     Don't give me that look. [09:02] Isla     I'll make sure I come home. [09:04] Isla     I promised you, right? [09:05] Maria     Yeah! [09:06] Caria     We'll take care of     the king and wait for you! [09:10] Isla     Please do. [09:11] Both     Yes! [09:17] Isla     Now then, I'll be heading out! [09:32] FlameKnight     Man, this is one creepy forest. [09:35] FK     Why did we have to split away from Sir Ice     Rock and invade this place on our own? [09:41] FlameMage     About that... [09:43] FK     Huh? [09:44] FM     There's a good chance this operation     doesn't have the Demon Lord's permission. [09:49] FK     Huh?! [09:51] FM     The boss might be planning     to betray the Demon Lord. [09:54] FK     Seriously?! Why would he do that? [09:57] FM     Do you remember when we     first came to this world? [10:01] FK     Yeah. [10:02] FK     One moment, we were all here     in the same place. Right? [10:07] FM     Apparently, it was different for     the boss and the Demon Lord. [10:10] FK     Hmm? [10:15] FK     Scouts? [10:17] FM     Wait! Something's off. [10:23] Orc     Wh-What's happening to me? [10:29] FK     What happened to you?! [10:32] Orc     I-I... [10:37] FK     Halt right there!

[10:59] FM     Who's there?! [11:01] Isla     Retreating over just this? [11:03] Isla     You all are part of the Demon Lord's     army, the forces of darkness, aren't you? [11:08] FK     Where are you?! [11:09] FK     Show yourself! [11:12] Isla     If you're the forces of darkness, [11:20] Isla     then you need to be more beautiful,     ruthless, and thorough. [11:37] Isla     Hmm... [11:38] Isla     They're not very nutritious, are they? [11:41] Isla     I suppose I'd give them a thirty. [11:45] Isla     I'm talking about your minions, you know? [11:50] Flamin     Uh-huh, that's an awful     thing to say about 'em. [12:01] Flamin     Introduce yourself, freak. [12:03] Isla     I serve the kingdom of Mynoghra, governed     by the great King of Ruin, King Ira Takuto. [12:09] Isla     I am one of its Heroes, Isla, Queen of Bugs. [12:15] Isla     And you are? [12:16] Flaming     One of the Demon Lord Army's Four     Generals, Flamin, the Flame Demon. [12:24] Isla     The Four Generals! [12:25] Isla     There really was one here! [12:28] Flamin     Huh? [12:29] Isla     I thought there must be one of the     leaders here with an army of this size. [12:36] Isla     Just like Ice Rock was there in Dragontan. [12:41] Flamin     So what, that guy got taken out? [12:44] Flamin     Well, I ain't surprised. [12:46] Flamin     He was just a muscle-head anyway. [12:48] Isla     Oh my, he was one of your allies, wasn't he? [12:51] Isla     What an awful way to speak of him. [12:55] Flamin     He was always the weakest     of us Four Generals. [12:57] Flamin     I've got a good two steps up on him. [13:00] Flamin     So if you're thinking I'll go down     just as easily, you're dead wrong. [13:04] Isla     Well, well, you sound awfully     confident in yourself. [13:12] Flamin     Yeah. [13:13] Flamin     It'll be a cinch for me to murder you and     drag that big shot behind you off his throne. [13:19] Flamin     What'd you call him again? [13:21] Flamin     King Ira Takuto, was it? [13:27] Isla     That's quite a bark for a piece of trash. [13:30] Flamin     Don't get cocky, fly. [13:54] Takuto     So it's started. [13:56] Takuto     Isla is currently engaged     with the Flame Demon, Flamin. SIGN    Isla, Queen of Bugs SIGN    The Flame Demon,      Flamin. [14:01] Takuto     When you pit an RPG character     against those from a 4X game, [14:05] Takuto     the 4X game characters are     overwhelmingly stronger in combat. [14:10] Takuto     We've already confirmed that     in the battle at Dragontan. [14:13] Takuto     It's only a matter of time     before she defeats him. SIGN    Larvae SIGN    Larvae SIGN    Larvae SIGN    Larvae SIGN    Larvae [14:16] Takuto     The Larvae not participating     in the fight against Flamin [14:19] Takuto     are patrolling the Accursed Lands     and defeating the invaders.

SIGN    Brain Eaters [14:33] Takuto     The Brain Eaters are standing     by close at hand. [14:38] Takuto     Everything's going smoothly...     at least in theory. [14:42] Takuto     Hmm... [14:45] Caria     My king? [14:46] Maria     What are you thinking about? [14:48] Takuto     I wonder what it is? [14:51] Takuto     Something is nagging at me... [14:55] Takuto     Hmm, is anything sticking out to you two? [15:12] Flamin     Damn, man! [15:13] Flamin     This is totally crazy! [15:15] Flamin     Didn't know there were freaks     like you in this world! [15:22] Isla     Calling me a freaks is quite rude, you know. [15:30] Isla     It's certainly not a term you     should be using with a woman. [15:34] Isla     Don't you agree? [15:44] Flamin     Cheeky bitch! [15:48] Flamin     It ain't fair if you get to     be the only one with pawns! [15:56] Isla     Summoning them at no cost? [15:59] Isla     Now that's very much cheating. [16:02] Isla     Might I ask you a question? [16:05] Flamin     Huh? We're trying to kill each other here. [16:12] Isla     Now, don't be like that. [16:14] Isla     My master wishes to know. [16:21] Isla     Why did you attack us? [16:31] Flamin     Hey, now! What the hell?! [16:33] Flamin     You got no standards?! [16:40] Isla     Splitting your forces away     from Dragontan to attack us [16:45] Isla     seems like a foolish strategy, doesn't it? [16:48] Flamin     You want to know why?! [16:51] Flamin     Don't you know? [16:53] Flamin     Or is your boss just hiding it from you all? [16:56] Flamin     Either way, I feel sorry for you, damn! [16:59] Isla     Thank you for the warning. [17:01] Isla     However, words like that aren't     going to shake my loyalty. [17:06] Flamin     I knew that already! [17:09] Flamin     And you? [17:10] Flamin     What do you think about yourself? [17:13] Isla     I don't quite understand the     intent of your question. [17:16] Isla     I take it you harbor doubts     about your own state of being. [17:19] Flamin     Just answer the damn question! [17:23] Isla     I am a Hero of Mynoghra, [17:26] Isla     and the loyal servant of     our king, King Ira Takuto. [17:30] Isla     Nothing more, and nothing less. [17:35] Flamin     I hate that shit! [17:37] Isla     Oh my, what do you hate so much about that? [17:42] Flamin     You call yourself his servant, [17:44] Flamin     but you're so goddamn full     of pride and conviction! [17:48] Flamin     Huh? That's it. [17:50] Flamin     That's why I'm so pissed off. [17:54] Flamin     It's because you all are free. [17:56] Flamin     You serve your king of your own volition, [17:58] Flamin     and it's your own choice to     dedicate your loyalty to him. [18:02] Flamin     Hey, how's that feel, anyway? [18:05] Flamin     Serving someone of your own free will? [18:08] Isla     Ahh, so that's what the issue is. [18:12] Isla     "Blissful" sums it up nicely. [18:16] Isla     Nothing brings me greater joy     than proving useful to my master. [18:22] Isla     So? [18:24] Isla     What about you, [18:26] Isla     Mister Puppet, forced to dance to the     strings of the role imposed upon you? [18:33] Flamin     It feels shitty as hell! [18:37] Flamin     However! [18:38] Flamin     Once I kill you— [18:40] Flamin     kill all of you here— [18:42] Flamin     then I'll obtain it too! [18:44] Flamin     I'll get my freedom! [18:50] Isla     I see. [18:51] Isla     So that's your intention then. [18:53] Isla     Ah... [18:54] Isla     How lovely! [18:56] Isla     You're quite charming right now! [18:59] Flamin     Can it, fly! [19:01] Flamin     Burn up and be gone already! [19:12] Flamin     Got you! [19:31] Isla     Is that it? [19:33] Isla     That's the extent of your thirst for freedom? [19:37] Flamin     Don't you dare mock me! [19:45] Isla     That's just not enough. [19:46] Isla     If you truly want to kill me, [19:48] Isla     you'll need to prepare     at least five times more. [19:58] Isla     You're out of MP, aren't you? [20:09] Isla     I have one final message     for you from my master. [20:14] Isla     He says, "You took us too lightly." [20:22] (Flashback) DemonLord     Is that true? [20:25] (Flashback) DemonLord     We'll really obtain peace and freedom? [20:30] (Flashback) DemonLord     If we offer up this world? [20:36] Flamin     Ah, in the end...

[11:48] Slave     Master! [11:53] Student     And they did give me OP powers, [11:55] Student     so I am grateful. [11:57] Slave     Y-You're incredible, Master! [12:00] Student     Good grief. [12:02] Student     I guess things don't go as conveniently     as they do in anime and novels. [12:05] Student     Well, still, I guess I'll go save the world! [12:09] Slave     Yes! My exclusive Master! [12:16] Erakino     Hey, hey! [12:18] Erakino     Nice to meet you, and long time no see! [12:19] Erakino     You doing well, Sainty? [12:22] Soalina     I'm finally going to     uncover your secret today. [12:26] Erakino     Man, this is battle number nineteen, huh? [12:29] Soalina     I've made sure to bury     her all eighteen times before. [12:34] Soalina     Even when I completely     incinerated her corpse, [12:36] Soalina     and even when I cast seals on it, [12:39] Soalina     she came back to life like nothing happened. [12:41] Soalina     This calamity won't end     until I unravel her mystery. [12:44] Erakino     You're so stiff! [12:45] Erakino     Why not be a little more chill? [12:47] Soalina     I'm simply here to eliminate     evil in the name of God. [12:52] Erakino     Well, to be blunt, I'm going to     get angry if I don't win soon. [12:56] Erakino     So... [12:57] Erakino     Time to roll the dice again today. [13:14] Erakino     Uhh... [13:17] Erakino     Did I just crit? [13:20] Erakino     Hell yeah! [13:21] Erakino     Rolled a crit! [13:24] Erakino     This nineteenth iteration did it! [13:25] Erakino     After tweaking and     tweaking my sheet, [13:28] Erakino     Erakino has finally become     the strongest character! [13:31] Erakino     Master! Are you watching?! [13:33] Erakino     I did it! [13:35] Erakino     Praise me! Praise me! [13:37] Erakino     Oh? [13:37] Erakino     Sure! It's a request from God, after all! [13:41] Erakino     Aye, sir! Aye, sir! [13:43] Erakino     My Game Master! [13:46] Erakino     Mynoghra, huh? [13:49] Erakino     Now, Erakino, time to get to work! [13:53] Erakino     As the Dice God wills! [13:55] Erakino     As the roll of the dice demands! [14:02] Takuto     Going forward, I might have to fight     other enemies with other game mechanics. [14:07] Takuto     If we repeat our performance here this time, [14:10] Takuto     then we'll be wiped out next time. [14:14] Gia     My king! [14:15] Gia     Please forgive me for coming to you directly, [14:17] Gia     but the telepathy wasn't reaching you! [14:20] Gia     We've restored the guard around     the Palace, so please return! [14:23] Takuto     Leave me alone. [14:25] Gia     F-Forgive me! [14:29] Takuto     I'm being lousy. [14:31] Takuto     Because I got arrogant, I lost Isla [14:34] Takuto     and wound up betraying the twins' trust. [14:37] Takuto     My naivety caused all of this. [14:42] Takuto     Dammit! [14:48] Takuto     Huh? [14:52] Takuto     No way, right? [15:09] Takuto     This isn't a game I'm     controlling from the outside. [15:12] Takuto     Since I'm part of this world, that     means I'm a unit too, doesn't it? [15:16] Takuto     How did I never notice that before? [15:18] Takuto     Why didn't I test that from the start?! [15:21] Takuto     If I had known that, she     wouldn't have had to die! [15:30] Atou     We're holding an emergency meeting. [15:33] Atou     First, I'd like to request the sentence     for the Elfuur Sisters' insubordination. [15:39] Takuto     Nothing. [15:41] Takuto     They won't be charged with a crime. [15:42] Atou     King Takuto! [15:44] Atou     We wouldn't be upholding this country's laws! [15:46] Atou     Especially in emergencies like this one, [15:49] Atou     we can't permit exceptions without reason— [15:51] Takuto     Emergencies, huh? [15:54] Takuto     I need to apologize to     you all regarding that. [16:01] Takuto     I'm truly sorry. [16:03] Takuto     This was brought about by my     arrogance and carelessness. [16:05] Moltar     P-Please stop! [16:08] Moltar     A king must never apologize! [16:10] Gia     It's all because we weren't good enough! [16:13] Takuto     I also promise you this. [16:15] Takuto     I will bring Isla back to life. [16:19] Caria     Y-You mean it? [16:21] Maria     You can bring her back to life? [16:23] Atou     Please hold on! [16:25] Atou     I beg your pardon, [16:26] Atou     but in our current situation, resurrecting     our Heroes isn't an option! [16:29] Takuto     "Their people shall be     welcomed into the heavens, [16:31] Takuto     and they shall live for eternity in endless     harmony at the pinnacle of happiness. [16:36] Takuto     There shall be no pain or suffering there, [16:39] Takuto     and the dead shall return to life to     rejoin their loved ones once more." [16:43] Takuto     The Ascension Victory—the victory in which     a civilization ascends to a higher plane. [16:47] Takuto     If this world is drawing on the     mechanics of Eternal Nations, [16:51] Takuto     then I vow to seize that victory. [16:54] Takuto     To restore all we've lost. [16:57] Atou     B-But the victory conditions     are far too difficult! [16:59] Atou     The Ascension Victory essentially     means recreating the world itself! [17:03] Atou     The moment others learn     we're aiming for that, [17:05] Atou     the entire world will turn against us! [17:07] Takuto     That's all right! [17:08] Atou     What grounds do you have     for concluding that?! [17:11] Takuto     Because we'll just kill     everyone who gets in our way. [17:18] Atou     Emergency Production? [17:20] Takuto     Now, let's go conquer the world! [17:25] Takuto     To be honest, I think this will     be challenging for all of you! [17:28] Takuto     But I know that together, we can do this! [17:30] Takuto     Just be sure to listen to what     I tell you from now on, okay? [17:40] Takuto     Modern weapons won't be     good enough on their own. [17:42] Takuto     If we want to achieve the Ascension Victory, [17:44] Takuto     I'll need to devise an intricate strategy. [17:48] Takuto     I'll have to manage every detail     of my units' actions myself. [17:53] Takuto     I should check on the state     of our civilization once more. [17:58] Takuto     The Dark Elves are all gathered in one spot? [18:03] Takuto     What's that? [18:11] Moltar     We'll have Lady Isla watch over the     future of our nation from here. [18:17] Gia     Hero of Mynoghra, may you rest in peace. [18:20] Maria     It's not a grave. [18:22] Caria     Mama Isla's just going to be     resting there for a while. [18:27] Caria     Our king told us [18:29] Caria     that he would bring Mother back to life. [18:31] Maria     So I'm sure Mother will come back to life! [18:37] Moltar     Do you think we can achieve the     results our king seeks from us? [18:41] Gia     He was terrifying. [18:43] Gia     Today, our king was far more terrifying     than he was when I first spoke to him. [18:48] Emle     I'm not sure we can keep     up with our king's plans... [18:55] Maria     You're all being big children. [18:58] Caria     Only children get frightened,     lose confidence, [19:00] Caria     and become incapable of doing     what they should be doing. [19:04] Maria     Should I be giving you head pats? [19:10] Moltar     To think we're being chastised by children! [19:13] Emle     But they're right. [19:15] Emle     Growing timid like this is childish. [19:18] Gia     Even our young ones [19:20] Gia     don't hesitate to serve our king. [19:22] Gia     I once again vow to follow our king to the     end, no matter how terrifying it may be, [19:26] Gia     and even if the whole world turns against us. [19:29] Emle     Our king has always put his trust     in us and made good use of us. [19:33] Emle     Now it's our turn to trust our king. [19:36] Moltar     Even if it's lacking, I'll     scrounge up what wisdom I can [19:38] Moltar     and devise strategies to offer to our king! [19:41] Moltar     Let's go! [19:42] All     Yes! [20:12] Takuto     I came close to choosing     the most horrible strategy. [20:16] Takuto     It was thanks to everyone here with me, [20:20] Takuto     That we became this nation,     distinct from the game. [20:24] Takuto     That we became Mynoghra. Our nation. [20:43] Atou     I shut myself away after I was unable to     find the words to say to King Takuto yesterday... [20:48] Atou     But today, it's different. [20:51] Atou     No matter how King Takuto may change, [20:53] Atou     my loyalty to him never will! [20:56] Atou     My great and mighty king, King Ira Takuto! [20:59] Atou     Your Sludge Atou is here! [21:02] Maria     There, there. [21:04] Caria     We want you to cheer up, my king. [21:09] Atou     K-King Takuto?! [21:14] Takuto     I got so carried away yesterday     that I frightened everyone... [21:18] Atou     I-It's all right! It's all right! [21:21] Takuto     I shouldn't have said it the way I did... [21:24] Atou     Th-Then if you were to rephrase it now? [21:27] Both     If you were? [21:31] Takuto     I won't let the people who place     their trust in me suffer again. [21:36] Takuto     So let's all work together [21:39] Takuto     to achieve the Ascension Victory! [21:43] Atou     I'll follow you wherever you may go. [21:45] Maria     We'll help! [21:46] Caria     You can do it, my king! [21:49] Takuto     It's something only I can do. [21:51] Takuto     As the top player of Eternal Nations, [21:56] Takuto     I'll bring us victory out     of these circumstances.
