[00:06] Nar
    It appeared as though humanity
    would be destroyed by the demons.
[00:14] Nar
    But a single mage saved them all.
[00:26] Nar
    He was called the Wizard King,
    and he became a legend.

[02:04] Finral
    N-N-N-N-N-N-Ne...
[02:08] Nero
    Did you not hear me?
[02:10] Finral
    S-S-S-S-S....
[02:12] Finral
    Sp?!
[02:14] Mage A
    The bird just spoke?
[02:15] Mage B
    It must be a spirit, and a noble spirit at that!
[02:18] Finral
    Nero?!
[02:19] Finral
    You spoke just now,
    didn't you? No, that can't be!
[02:22] Finral
    This is a dream, right? I'm still asleep, right?
[02:25] Nero
    Wipe off that dumb look and get a move on.
     Hurry up with the spatial portal.
[02:29] Finral
    What?!
[02:30] Finral
    This bird just started talking out
    of nowhere, and now it won't shut up!
[02:34] Nero
    At this rate,
[02:35] Nero
    humans who have elves within them
    might not be able to return to normal.
[02:39] Finral
    What?
[02:40] Nero
    Even worse...
[02:42] Nero
    Anyway, hurry up and take
    me to the demon's bones.
[02:46] Finral
    Nero, you're...
[02:59] Devil
    "Return."
[03:05] Devil
    That was a splendid cut.
[03:07] Devil
    "Storm of Blades."
[03:12] Yami
    Anything goes with you, doesn't it?!
[03:15] Yami
    This black creepy guy's magic...
[03:19] Devil
    "Earth Shield."
[03:19] Yami
    Not only can he make the things
    he says manifest as magic,
[03:20] Devil
    "Wave of Flame."
[03:22] Devil
    "Iron Spear."
[03:24] Yami
    he can summon, move, and order
    objects around, as well.
[03:29] Yami
    This "Storm of Blades" is basically
    both of those things at once.
[03:34] Yami
    This is completely nuts!
[03:37] Yami
    He was able to wither
    Charlotte's briars, heal himself,
[03:41] Yami
    and keep doing whatever the hell
    he wants against the living,
[03:44] Yami
    but considering he hasn't
    straight-up ordered us to "Die,"
[03:48] Yami
    I'm gonna guess he has some limits.
[03:51] Yami
    Ugh, damn it. Just thinking about
    all this is a pain in the ass.
[03:54] Yami
    Charlotte!
[03:56] Charlotte
    I'm Charla!
[04:01] Charlotte
    Back then...
[04:03] (Flashback) Devil
    "Wither."
[04:04] Charlotte
    Did some of my briars not wither
    because they were out of his range?
[04:13] Charlotte
    I'm assuming that was part of it, but it
    comes down to how much magic he has.
[04:17] Charlotte
    Is the effect of the amount of magic
    he puts into his words so great
[04:21] Charlotte
    that it overwhelms our magic?
[04:28] Yami
    So just barely fending off his attacks while
[04:30] Yami
    we keep trying to figure
    him out is all we can do?
[04:33] Yami
    Tch!
[04:36] Yami
    The one thing I've noticed is he can't
    stop my dark magic with his words.
[04:42] Yami
    I knew it. He dodged it rather than stopping it.
[04:44] Yami
    I mean, I need my spells to hit him, but...
[04:55] Yami
    Not bad!
[05:00] Yami
    I'm amazed you can move around so
    much when you're basically asleep.
[05:04] Charlotte
    He's right. Licht isn't able to
    manifest his full powers right now.
[05:08] Charlotte
    This fight seems evenly balanced
    at the moment, but at this rate...
[05:11] Devil
    "Storm of Blades."
[05:18] Yami
    Damn it! There's no end to this!
[05:21] Yami
    This ain't good. That guy's magic
    was too overpowered to begin with!

[05:29] Yami
    At this rate, my magic's not gonna hold out.
[05:33] Yami
    And he doesn't seem fazed by any of this.
[05:39] Devil
    I quite enjoy your company.
[05:41] Devil
    You're so pleasantly annoying
    that I'm actually enjoying this.
[05:44] Devil
    To think that having my own body
    and being able to play with magic
[05:47] Devil
    would make my heart dance with such delight!
[05:50] Devil
    I thank you.
[05:52] Devil
    You've also helped me obtain
    the five-leaf grimoire.
[05:56] Devil
    Now I shall use it.
[05:58] Devil
    The magic of my words...
[06:03] Devil
    Word Soul Magic:
[06:05] Devil
    ┘░╣╩┐┤.
[06:11] Yami
    This nasty magic is... He's still...
[06:18] Devil
    I do apologize, but I'm a completely
    different being than the rest of you.
[06:25] Devil
    From a different dimension, in fact.
[06:33] Yami
    What the hell is this spell?
[06:36] Charlotte
    Is this from the other world?
[06:45] Yami
    Tch!
[06:52] Yami
    It's like sprinkling water on a hot stone.
[07:00] Yami
    Yeah... That's not good.
[07:07] Patlicht
    What is this...
[07:09] Yuno
    ...magic?
[07:17] Finral
    Traveling this far all at once is exhausting.
[07:19] Nero
    Hurry up.
[07:21] Finral
    H-Hey! Wait up!
[07:25] Nero
    Take out all the magic stones that
    are embedded in this monument.
[07:30] Finral
    Magic stones...
[07:32] Finral
    All the magic stones that were taken by the
[07:35] Finral
    Eye of the Midnight Sun are here.
[07:37] Finral
    You're sure I can take them out?
[07:39] Nero
    Hurry it up.
[07:41] Nero
    Now...
[07:42] Nero
    Put all those magic stones into this statue.
[07:45] Finral
    The statue of the first Wizard King...
[07:49] Finral
    I guess they go here.
[07:57] Finral
    All that's left are the eyes.
[08:00] Finral
    This is the last one.
[08:06] Finral
    Is this... magic?
[08:13] Yami
    Watch out!
[08:17] Charlotte
    This is...
[08:18] Charlotte
    Our magic is... melting!
[08:21] Charlotte
    Curses!
[08:22] Yami
    Dark Cloaked
[08:24] Yami
    Black Blade Blunt Slash!
[08:26] Charlotte
    You...
[08:33] Yami
    It leeched magic and life energy out of me?!
[08:38] Devil
    I guess you won't be able
    to hold your sword anymore.
[08:41] Devil
    It's a spell that devours life.
[08:44] Devil
    I merely opened the lid on it,
    but it can no longer be stopped.
[08:49] Devil
    Not until it devours humans, elves...
     and everything else.
[08:57] Yami
    Shit. This is seriously bad news.
[09:04] Patlicht
    That evil magic is heading our way!
[09:08] Yuno
    What in the world is that?!
[09:09] Patlicht
    That's the devil's magic!
[09:13] Patlicht
    Light Magic: Light Swords of Conviction!
[09:16] Yuno
    Wind Magic: Tornado Fang!
[09:23] yuno
    It swallowed up our spells?
[09:26] Patlicht
    Don't let it touch you! Run!
[09:33] Asta
    There!
[09:36] Mimosa
    Asta!
[09:38] Yuno
    Asta!
[09:45] Asta
    I thought I was a goner!
[09:48] Mimosa
    Asta!
[09:51] Patlicht
    So anti-magic works against that, too?
[09:54] Patlicht
    And he's completely unharmed?
[09:57] Yuno
    I guess it figured there's
    no point in swallowing up
[09:59] Yuno
    something that has no magic.
[10:00] Patlicht
    Unbelievable.
[10:02] Asta
    Hey! Why do you guys sound creeped out?!
[10:05] Mimosa
    This is...
[10:07] Mimosa
    As we thought, there's even more of
    this eerie magic flowing above us.
[10:12] Mimosa
    At this rate, the ones in the
    other rooms are in danger, too.
[10:17] Nozel
    The one with the most mobility,
    who can get those
[10:20] Nozel
    who have turned into elves out of here...
[10:22] Nozel
    Saving the kingdom, and all
     of us escaping here in one piece,
[10:25] Nozel
    will mean our victory.
[10:27] Nozel
    I'll go assist the ones below.
[10:30] Nozel
    Come with me, Vermillion.
[10:31] Mimosa
    Yes, sir.
[10:32] Nozel
    You appear to understand
    the enemy and what's going on
[10:35] Nozel
    up above better than I do.
[10:36] Nozel
    If you supplement Asta's anti-magic
    with Yuno's spirit magic
[10:40] Nozel
    and that elf's light magic,
[10:43] Nozel
    you should make it to the battlefield.
[10:47] Nozel
    Go.
[10:49] Asta
    Got it!
[11:00] Nero
    Now that your seal has been broken,
    that means my seal will also...
[11:06] Finral
    Nero?
[11:08] Nero
    What a pathetic state you're in.
    If only my spell was more complete...
[11:13] Lumiere
    No, the only reason I was able
    to return is because of you.
[11:16] Finral
    Huh?
[11:17] Secré
    Welcome back, my prince.
SIGN    First Wizard King
    Lumiere Silvamillion Clover
[11:25] Lumiere
    I'm sorry I kept you waiting.
[11:29] Finral
    The first Wizard King...
[11:31] Finral
    The legendary statue had life within it.
[11:34] Finral
    And you're—Huh?!
[11:36] Finral
    N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-N-Nero, is that you?!
SIGN    Secré Swallowtail
[11:44] Finral
    I had no idea you were such a cute girl!
[11:46] Finral
    If you'd told me earlier, I would've
    totally asked you out on a date!
[11:49] Finral
    Why don't we go on a date right n—
[11:51] Finral
    I'm really sorry.
[11:54] Lumiere
    I sense an otherworldly magic
    from the Shadow Palace.
[11:58] Lumiere
    I see. He must've obtained a body.
[12:03] Finral
    Why are you two...
[12:05] Lumiere
    Just as I was about to die, she used her
    confinement magic to seal me away.
[12:10] Lumiere
    I was asleep this whole time.
[12:15] Lumiere
    And with the help of the magic stones,
    I managed to awaken, at least partially.
[12:21] Finral
    Such calm yet powerful mana...
[12:24] Finral
    It's far more powerful than even the elves'...
[12:27] Lumiere
    She's...
[12:28] Secré
    For 500 years, I was just what
    you people called "Nero."
[12:32] Finral
    Huh? Why are you holding my ha—
[12:43] Secré
    Sealing Magic: Inverse Release.
[12:49] Finral
    Huh?
[12:50] Lumiere
    Thank you, Magic Knight of the present.
[12:53] Lumiere
    Wait there for your friends' return.
[13:01] Lumiere
    I'm sorry you had to wait 500 years.
[13:04] Secré
    It's fine.
[13:08] Secré
    We can't let what happened
    before ever happen again.
SIGN    500 Years Ago
SIGN    Clover Castle
[13:23] Secré
    Despite being a noble,
    my magic was only able to
[13:27] Secré
    open and close things,
    and was considered useless.
[13:30] Secré
    So I ended up a servant...
[13:32] Secré
    to an eccentric prince
[13:33] Secré
    whose magic and talent were
    amazing even among royalty.
[13:39] Secré
    I wonder what kind of awful snob he'll be.
[13:42] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Hey there! You must be Secré.
[13:46] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Sorry, I'm researching ancient
    magic right now, so I can't get up.
[13:51] (Flashback) Lumiere
    By the way, what kind of magic do you have?
[13:54] Secré
    But he was nothing like I had imagined.
[13:57] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Sealing magic?!
[13:59] (Flashback) Lumiere
    What's that? I've never heard of it before!
[14:01] (Flashback) Lumiere
    That's so unusual! How amazing!
[14:04] (Flashback) Lumiere
    How should we have you use it?
    Just thinking about it is exciting, isn't it?
[14:09] (Flashback) Secré
    Magic that opens and closes locks is vulgar.
[14:12] (Flashback) Lumiere
    That's not true! Don't seal off your potential!
[14:16] (Flashback) Secré
    Please don't make a face like you
    just said something clever.
[14:19] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Aw...
[14:20] (Flashback) Secré
    Also, your clothes are weird.
[14:22] (Flashback) Lumiere
    What?! But I made these
    clothes myself! Aren't they great?
[14:26] (Flashback) Secré
    More importantly...
[14:27] (Flashback) Lumiere
    What's more important than that?
[14:29] (Flashback) Secré
    What should I help you with?
[14:32] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Well... Right now, I'm creating magical tools.
[14:37] (Flashback) Secré
    Magical tools?
[14:38] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Yup. So that people who aren't
    blessed with magic or by their
[14:42] (Flashback) Lumiere
    magical attribute can
    use all kinds of spells.
[14:44] (Flashback) Lumiere
    That way, I think we can
    make our society more equal.
[14:48] (Flashback) Secré
    But that just sounds like a silly dream.
[14:51] (Flashback) Lumiere
    They're tools to help me with that.
[14:52] (Flashback) Lumiere
    I think I'll call them magic items.
[14:55] (Flashback) Lumiere
    I'm sure your magic will help me with this!
[14:58] (Flashback) Lumiere
    For example, can you seal magic into objects?
[15:01] (Flashback) Secré
    Um... Yes.
[15:03] (Flashback) Lumiere
    You can?! That's amazing!
[15:07] Secré
    I helped the prince make magical tools.
[15:15] Secré
    He really was nothing like I'd imagined.
[15:19] Secré
    There were members of his family
    who didn't like his progressive ideas.
[15:27] Secré
    But he didn't let that bother him,
    and he never compromised his ideals.
[15:32] Secré
    He was a strong, honest person.
[15:41] Secré
    Recently he and his sister, Lady Tetia,
[15:44] Secré
    have been sneaking out quite frequently.
[15:48] Secré
    What could they be doing here?
[15:55] Secré
    The other race... The ones blessed with mana!
[15:58] Secré
    Phenomenal magic and skill...
[16:00] Secré
    The same thoughts and ideals...
[16:02] Secré
    The same four-leaf grimoires...
[16:05] Secré
    The leader of the elves, Licht,
[16:07] Secré
    was the first peer and friend
    that the prince had ever had.
[16:13] (Flashback) Lumiere
    We can come to understand each other.
[16:14] (Flashback) Lumiere
    You elves have truly amazing mana.
[16:18] (Flashback) Lumiere
    By combining that with the magic-item
    technology that we humans created,
[16:21] (Flashback) Lumiere
    we can make this land
    safer and more prosperous.
[16:25] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Let us live together, hand in hand.
[16:32] Secré
    Magic items that stored and distributed magic,
[16:35] Secré
    and the elves' magic stones, which linked
    to another world and amplified spells...
[16:40] Secré
    Through his work with the elves,
    spells and magic-item technology
[16:43] Secré
    that would help not only the humans,
    but both races to live in peace as equals
[16:49] Secré
    were slowly becoming a reality.
[16:52] Secré
    The prince and Licht were best friends.
[16:54] Secré
    And they were supposed to become family.
[16:59] (Flashback) Lumiere
    I'm really sorry, but I'm probably
    going to be late to your wedding.
[17:04] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Sadly, Father has summoned
    me to the palace that day.
[17:09] (Flashback) Lumiere
    I know that he and the others
    are against this marriage now,
[17:12] (Flashback) Lumiere
    but don't worry.
[17:13] (Flashback) Lumiere
    I'm sure they'll understand someday
    and give you their blessings.
[17:16] (Flashback) Tetia
    I know.
[17:17] (Flashback) Tetia
    I'm sure Licht and the others
    will be eager to see you.
[17:25] Secré
    But it's likely that even then,
[17:29] Secré
    he was already manipulating
    the whole situation.
[17:32] Lumiere
    I wonder why Father summoned me today.
[17:34] Lumiere
    We didn't mention the wedding
    to anyone, so is it a coincidence?
[17:38] Lumiere
    I need to hurry to the ceremony.
[17:41] Lumiere
    No one's here?
[17:43] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Father, where are you?
[17:46] (Flashback) Devil
    "Bind."
[17:52] (Flashback) Lumiere
    What is this?
[17:56] (Flashback) Minister
    Good day, my prince.
[17:58] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Minister?!
[18:00] Lumiere
    No... The evil mana that's coming
    from him doesn't belong to him.
[18:04] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Who are you?!
[18:07] (Flashback) Devil
    Who am I?
[18:08] (Flashback) Devil
    Despair, hatred,
[18:11] (Flashback) Devil
    disloyalty, or death...
[18:14] (Flashback) Devil
    You may call me whatever you wish.
[18:17] Lumiere
    A soul with evil mana...
[18:19] Lumiere
    I've read about this being
    from another world! A devil?
[18:24] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Where are my father and the others?
[18:25] (Flashback) Devil
    Who knows?
[18:27] (Flashback) Devil
    Maybe they've gone to destroy the other race
[18:30] (Flashback) Devil
    that's trying to harm the princess and,
     indeed, the entire kingdom.
[18:34] (Flashback) Devil
    I'm sure the elves will be quite surprised
[18:37] (Flashback) Devil
    when the humans' violence and greed
[18:39] (Flashback) Devil
    fall upon the wedding ceremony
    that only you should know about.
[18:44] (Flashback) Lumiere
    What?!
[18:50] (Flashback) Devil
    Ah, this is what I'd expect from
    the strongest in the kingdom.
[18:52] (Flashback) Devil
    That's some terrifying magic.
[18:54] (Flashback) Devil
    Though I was prepared for that,
[18:57] (Flashback) Devil
    so even you won't be able to escape
    from those bonds so easily.
[19:00] (Flashback) Devil
    Once I obtain my body and grimoire,
    I'll come play with you again.
[19:06] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Wait!
[19:09] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Someone! Isn't there anyone here?
[19:12] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Anyone!
[19:13] (Flashback) Secré
    Prince!
[19:14] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Secré!
[19:15] (Flashback) Secré
    What's going on, Your Highness?
[19:17] (Flashback) Lumiere
    There's a devil plotting something!
[19:19] (Flashback) Secré
    So it wasn't you, was it, Your Highness?
[19:22] (Flashback) Secré
    That magic item we made is gone!
[19:27] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Secré! Break these restraints!
[19:29] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Your sealing magic can do it!
[19:32] (Flashback) Secré
    Right!
[19:33] (Flashback) Secré
    Sealing Magic: Inverse Release!
[19:42] Lumiere
    Faster... I need to go faster!
[19:45] Lumiere
    Tetia, Licht, everyone...
[19:49] Lumiere
    That's the magic item we made!
[20:14] Secré
    A five-leaf grimoire...
[20:17] (Flashback) Licht
    I knew it...
[20:18] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Licht...
[20:19] (Flashback) Licht
    I knew it wasn't you.
[20:26] Devil
    He reclaimed his heart?
[20:29] (Flashback) Licht
    I'm sorry I doubted you for even a second.
[20:33] (Flashback) Licht
    Please forgive me.
[20:35] (Flashback) Devil
    Such a futile struggle!
    Now, relinquish your body to me.
[20:41] (Flashback) Licht
    You are the future we believed in.
[20:44] (Flashback) Licht
    You are hope.
[20:47] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Licht...
[20:49] (Flashback) Licht
    Right now, I am filled with
    tremendous negative mana.
[20:54] (Flashback) Licht
    I don't have full control anymore.
[20:56] (Flashback) Licht
    At this rate, that devil will...
[20:59] (Flashback) Lumiere
    Don't...
[21:01] (Flashback) Licht
    To prevent my magic and body from falling
    into the hands of something wicked...

    Don't... Don't do this, Licht!

    Don't do this, Licht!
[21:54] Licht
    Lumiere...
[21:59] Licht
    Please kill me!

[23:43] Secré
    We're going to save this world!
