**[00:05] Nar**
*The Clover Kingdom.*
**[00:06] Nar**
*In this kingdom where magic is everything,*
**[00:08] Nar**
*there is one boy who can't use magic.*
**[00:10] Nar**
*His name is Asta.*
**[00:12] Nar**
* He puts in blood, sweat, and tears*
* in hopes of becoming the Wizard King.*
**[00:17] Nar**
* But there are also those in the kingdom*
* who possess at least a little bit of mana,*
**[00:22] Nar**
*yet can barely use any magic at all.*
**[00:27] Nar**
* The very few out of the population,*
* those who live in the shadows...*
**[00:36] Nar**
*They are also trying to survive.*
***SIGN*** Those Who Wish for the Devil's Demise
**[02:25] (Flashback) Vide**
I-Is that a no?
**[02:30] (Flashback) Vide**
Wh-What did you say? I couldn't hear you.
**[02:34] (Flashback) Dazu**
Are you sure I'm good enough?
**[02:37] (Flashback) Vide**
Of course! Dazu, I...
**[02:41] (Flashback) Vide**
I want you to be my wife.
**[03:00] (Flashback) Meshu**
You're so hardworking, Dazu.
**[03:03] (Flashback) Dazu**
Mother.
**[03:05] (Flashback) Meshu**
You don't even use magic,
**[03:07] (Flashback) Meshu**
but you still manage to do just
as much work as the rest of us.
**[03:22] Finral**
Yami...
**[03:24] Yami**
Yeah... I wonder how many
more graves popped up
**[03:28] Yami**
after the Eye of the Midnight Sun attacked.
**[03:39] Finral**
H-Hey there, miss...
**[03:42] Finral**
There's something we'd like to ask you.
**[03:46] Dazu**
What's that?
**[03:47] Finral**
Have you seen this girl before?
**[03:52] Finral**
Also, did you happen to see a really cute
girl with horns growing out of her head?
**[03:56] Dazu**
Horns? What do you mean?
**[04:00] Yami**
Then...
**[04:01] Yami**
Maybe you've heard something
**[04:03] Yami**
about a group of people who
hate devils getting together?
**[04:07] Dazu**
Is there anyone who doesn't hate the devil?
**[04:11] Dazu**
You're talking about what caused
the tragedy here recently, right?
**[04:16] Yami**
Yeah.
**[04:18] Dazu**
You're Magic Knights, aren't you?
**[04:21] Yami**
Yeah.
**[04:22] Dazu**
My husband and his mother died that day.
**[04:28] Dazu**
Why didn't you come to help us?
**[04:33] Finral**
We were stretched too thin ourselves.
The whole kingdom was a mess...
**[04:37] Yami**
I'm sorry.
**[04:40] Yami**
I'm sorry we couldn't protect your family.
**[04:46] Dazu**
If you'll excuse me.
**[05:03] Villager A**
That silver hair and cross...
They must be from the Silva family.
**[05:06] Villager B**
What are royals doing here?
**[05:09] Villager C**
Hey, don't stare so much.
**[05:13] Noelle**
Hey, I have a question.
**[05:15] Noelle**
Have you seen this girl?
**[05:17] Guy A**
Huh? I, uh...
**[05:20] Guy A**
She's really cute.
**[05:22] Noelle**
We're looking for her and another
girl with horns on her head.
**[05:26] Noelle**
If you've seen them, tell me.
**[05:28] Man A**
What do you mean by horns?
**[05:30] Noelle**
So you haven't seen them? Okay, then.
**[05:33] Man A**
R-Right...
**[05:35] Noelle**
Hey, I have a question for you.
**[05:36] Man B**
Huh?
**[05:37] Noelle**
Have you seen this girl?
**[05:39] Man B**
No, I haven't. Please excuse me.
**[05:42] Noelle**
Take a closer look!
**[05:44] Man B**
Sorry, I'm a bit busy.
**[05:47] Man B**
My house was destroyed,
and I have to rebuild it.
**[05:49] Man B**
I just have so much to do.
**[05:52] Noelle**
Wait!
**[05:53] Nozel**
Don't chase them.
**[05:56] Noelle**
Nozel...
**[05:58] Nozel**
The people of this town...
**[06:00] Nozel**
They're not making it obvious,
**[06:02] Nozel**
but many of them hold a grudge
against the Magic Knights
**[06:04] Nozel**
and resent how the kingdom has handled things.
**[06:08] Nozel**
I can't blame them.
**[06:10] Nozel**
When this town was in danger,
we couldn't do anything for them.
**[06:16] Noelle**
You're right...
**[06:18] Nozel**
We won't be able to get any useful
information by being forceful.
**[06:22] Noelle**
But if we don't hurry, Nero and Marie will be...
**[06:25] Nozel**
We are indeed in a hurry, but no
good ever came out of panicking.
**[06:29] Nozel**
If you're a true Magic Knight, you need
to remain calm in these situations.
**[06:34] Noelle**
Right...
**[06:35] Nozel**
Questioning them isn't the only thing
we can do. Let's try something else.
**[06:39] Noelle**
Right!
**[06:47] Gauche**
Marie!
**[06:49] Man C**
Hey! What are you doing?
**[06:56] Gauche**
You're not Marie...
**[06:57] Man C**
What are you trying to do to my daughter?
**[06:59] Gauche**
Sorry!
**[07:00] Gauche**
But I'm a bit desperate here!
**[07:04] Gordon**
* I have to back him up since he's*
* my partner in the G-G Duo!*
**[07:10] Gordon**
Please forgive us. You can have this, okay?
**[07:17] Man C**
Stay away from my daughter, you creeps!
**[07:21] Gordon**
Try not to mistake someone
else for Marie again.
**[07:23] Gauche**
Shut your trap!
**[07:25] Gauche**
If I sense it might be Marie, I'm going to act!
**[07:30] Gauche**
Damn it! Marie!
**[07:32] Gauche**
Where are you?! My angel Marie! Answer me!
**[07:38] Gordon**
You can't shout like that!
**[07:41] Maggie**
You called?
**[07:43] Gauche**
The hell?
**[07:45] Maggie**
You just called my name.
**[07:48] Maggie**
And you called me an angel.
**[07:51] Maggie**
No one's ever called me that,
even when I was younger.
**[07:55] Gauche**
What the hell are you yapping
about, you old hag?
**[07:58] Gordon**
Um, what is your name?
**[08:02] Maggie**
My name's Maggie.
**[08:04] Gauche**
We're looking for *Marie*!
**[08:07] Maggie**
Oh, my. I guess that's different.
**[08:10] Gordon**
So close...
**[08:26] Bow**
Something must've happened.
**[08:28] Dazu**
Yes.
**[08:31] Bow**
We can talk down below.
**[08:36] Mask C**
Welcome back, Dazu.
**[08:37] Mask D**
Good work out there.
**[08:39] Dazu**
Thank you.
**[08:40] Kabwe**
How long are we going to hide down here?
**[08:44] Onoby**
We should just execute these two already.
**[08:47] Dazu**
There's an even bigger
problem on our hands now.
**[08:51] Dazu**
The Magic Knights are here.
**[08:53] Kabwe**
What?
**[08:55] Mask E**
Did they track us?
**[08:57] Mask D**
No, that's not possible.
**[08:58] Mask D**
Master Kabwe's transparency spell
made us disappear flawlessly.
**[09:03] Kabwe**
Maybe they planted something...
**[09:09] Kabwe**
Transparency Magic: Detection Decoder.
**[09:13] Siona**
There it is!
**[09:15] Kabwe**
This is...
**[09:16] Kabwe**
A magic item to keep tabs
on one who is devil-possessed!
**[09:20] Kabwe**
What's it doing here?
**[09:22] Onoby**
Curses! How underhanded!
**[09:25] Dazu**
Please wait.
**[09:27] Dazu**
I have an idea.
**[09:36] Yami**
Hey, did you guys get any information?
**[09:39] Noelle**
The townspeople wouldn't
tell us anything useful.
**[09:43] Noelle**
We tried to find somewhere they'd use as
a hideout, but nothing has turned up.
**[09:48] Nozel**
I'm trying to track mana,
but can't pinpoint a target.
**[09:52] Nozel**
And...
**[09:55] Finral**
The signal still seems unstable.
**[09:57] Nozel**
On top of that, we don't know when they'll
notice that communication magic item.
**[10:02] Noelle**
We need to find those two
before they find it.
**[10:05] Yami**
What about you two?
**[10:08] Gordon**
We were talking with an old woman.
**[10:10] Gauche**
She wasn't so bad.
**[10:12] Yami**
Why the hell did you two even come here?
**[10:14] Gauche**
I'm serious about this!
**[10:16] Gauche**
I'm just doing whatever will find those
assholes who took Marie the fastest!
**[10:23] Yami**
What's up, Bangs?
**[10:25] Nozel**
They're on the move.
**[10:26] Gauche**
Where?!
**[10:28] Finral**
Did they let down their defense?
**[10:30] Yami**
I'm not sure, but this is weird.
**[10:33] Nozel**
I'm sure they realize we're in town.
**[10:37] Nozel**
This could be a diversion.
**[10:40] Yami**
All right. Gordon and I will
investigate this town a bit more.
**[10:44] Yami**
You guys can borrow my wheels.
**[10:47] Nozel**
Very well. That'll make
getting back somewhat easier.
**[10:50] Finral**
* Even Captain Nozel's using*
* me as an errand boy?!*
**[10:53] Nozel**
Get on. We're going after them.
**[11:02] Bow**
That worked like a charm.
**[11:03] Dazu**
This should buy us some time.
**[11:06] Onoby**
Curse those Magic Knights.
**[11:09] Siona**
During the attack by the
Eye of the Midnight Sun,
**[11:11] Siona**
many of the Magic Knights
had their bodies taken over
**[11:14] Siona**
and contributed to the
destruction of this kingdom.
**[11:17] Siona**
They're absolutely unforgivable!
**[11:19] Mask E**
You're exactly right.
**[11:21] Mask F**
The Magic Knights only defend each other.
**[11:24] Mask G**
We mean nothing to them!
**[11:29] Mask C**
Let's show them the true meaning of justice!
**[11:33] Kabwe**
Of course.
**[11:35] Kabwe**
We're standing up for the
rights of our fellow citizens,
**[11:37] Kabwe**
and to regain peace and
harmony in this kingdom.
**[11:40] Kabwe**
Now... In order to exact our justice,
**[11:44] Kabwe**
let us execute these two servants
of the devil immediately.
**[11:47] Onoby**
Agreed!
**[11:48] Onoby**
We'll put their corpses on
display and show the world
**[11:51] Onoby**
the Magic Knights' negligence,
arrogance, and deceit!
**[11:56] Siona**
There's no future in this kingdom for
the Magic Knights who aid the devils!
**[12:00] Kabwe**
Exactly! From now on, we will be the ones
**[12:03] Kabwe**
who maintain the peace and
tranquility of the Clover Kingdom!
**[12:07] Dazu**
I think we should hold off on the executions.
**[12:12] Onoby**
How can you say that right now?!
**[12:14] Dazu**
I feel exactly the same way as all of you.
**[12:17] Dazu**
I cannot forgive anyone
who sides with the devil.
**[12:20] Dazu**
But if we hang on to those two,
**[12:22] Dazu**
we'll be able to lure out the
devil-possessed boy, Asta.
**[12:27] Dazu**
Wouldn't the masses side more with
**[12:29] Dazu**
Master Kabwe if we disposed
of all three of them at once?
**[12:35] Mask C**
True. If we use them as bait,
the Black Bulls should act.
**[12:39] Mask F**
Asta the Devil-Possessed...
He's who we're really after.
**[12:43] Kabwe**
True...
**[12:45] Kabwe**
We might as well call Asta a devil himself.
**[12:49] Kabwe**
We cannot exact justice until we execute him.
**[12:53] Dazu**
Yes, you're exactly right.
**[12:56] Dazu**
Now, let us figure out a way to capture Asta.
**[13:00] Kabwe**
Let me think...
**[13:12] Nozel**
They stopped moving.
**[13:14] Noelle**
There's no one here?
**[13:16] Nozel**
In there.
**[13:18] Gauche**
Marie!
**[13:19] Gauche**
We've come to save you! Answer me!
**[13:33] Noelle**
This is...
**[13:35] Nozel**
They put one over on us.
**[13:37] Finral**
Then Nero and Marie are...
**[13:40] Gauche**
Damn it!
**[13:43] Nozel**
We'll regroup with Yami and Gordon
and return to the royal capital for now.
**[13:46] Nozel**
We need to rethink our plan.
**[13:56] Bow**
It'll be okay.
**[13:59] Dazu**
Do you think this will all work out?
**[14:01] Bow**
Everything's been working out
for us ever since that day.
**[14:05] Dazu**
It's all thanks to you, Bow.
**[14:09] Bow**
No, it's not.
**[14:11] Bow**
If I hadn't met you, my life wouldn't
be going anywhere right now.
**[14:19] Dazu**
If I didn't have you,
**[14:22] Dazu**
I would've felt nothing but despair
at everything in this world.
**[14:26] Bow**
You can do it. Because you're my hope.
**[14:33] Dazu**
I'm sure this will all work
out with you by my side, Bow.
**[14:52] Asta**
What? Where am I?
**[14:54] Owen**
Are you awake?
**[14:56] Owen**
This is a breakroom in the palace.
**[14:58] Asta**
Owen...
**[15:01] Asta**
That's right! Nero was...
**[15:04] Owen**
Hey, wait!
**[15:10] Yami**
You need to confirm what's going on
before you go runnin' off like that, kid.
**[15:15] Asta**
Yes, sir!
**[15:17] Owen**
I managed to rid your body of the drug
they used on you, so you can go now.
**[15:21] Asta**
Thank you!
**[15:23] Asta**
So those guys called the Devil
Panickers took Nero and Marie?
**[15:27] Noelle**
The Devil Banishers. You were
almost taken yourself.
**[15:33] Asta**
You saved me, didn't you?
Thanks a bunch, Noelle!
**[15:37] Noelle**
I-It's not like I was trying to save you.
**[15:41] Noelle**
It's just that those weirdos were
doing something that seemed odd...
**[15:44] Noelle**
But I wasn't able to protect Nero.
**[15:47] Asta**
That's not your fault! It's because I
wasn't strong enough that Nero was...
**[15:51] Yami**
There's no point in talking about that now.
**[15:54] Yami**
Since we got Owen's okay,
you guys head back to the hideout.
**[16:00] Asta**
No! I'm going out to look for them right now!
**[16:04] Yami**
Didn't you hear a word we just said?
**[16:08] Yami**
We don't have any clues right now,
so we have no way of finding them.
**[16:12] Asta**
That's right!
**[16:15] Yami**
I'm counting on you.
**[16:17] Finral**
Where are you going, Yami?
**[16:19] Yami**
A captain's gotta do his
captainly duties sometimes.
**[16:23] Yami**
Oh, yeah.
**[16:24] Yami**
I already warned him myself,
**[16:27] Yami**
but if Gauche decides to freak out,
use force if necessary to stop him.
**[16:30] Yami**
I don't care how, as long as
he's still breathing some. Got it?
**[16:33] Asta**
Okay...
**[16:37] Marx**
Everyone is here.
**[16:39] Marx**
The Golden Dawn and Aqua Deer
are securing our borders.
**[16:43] Marx**
The Coral Peacocks and Purple Orcas
**[16:46] Marx**
are aiding in the restoration
of high-priority locations.
**[16:49] Julius**
We can't just abandon those duties right now.
**[16:53] Julius**
So if we can solve this with everyone
who's here right now, it'd be for the best.
**[16:57] Damnatio**
There's something I'd like to say first.
**[17:00] Damnatio**
There is a high likelihood that my
subordinates orchestrated this whole thing.
**[17:05] Damnatio**
And because of that, I will
offer you any information I can.
**[17:09] Julius**
Are you all okay with that?
**[17:12] Fuegoleon**
Our top priority right now is to
take back the two who were taken.
**[17:17] Nozel**
We can investigate your
subordinates' involvement later.
**[17:22] Julius**
Yes, you're right.
**[17:24] Marx**
Chairman Damnatio, if you would fill us in.
**[17:31] Damnatio**
The first is Kabwe Carillon, 38 years old.
**[17:35] Damnatio**
He uses transparency magic that allows
him and those around him to disappear.
**[17:40] Damnatio**
But unlike the former Captain of the
Purple Orcas, he cannot conceal his mana.
**[17:46] Damnatio**
The second is Onoby Sinho, 31 years old.
**[17:50] Damnatio**
He uses barrier magic that allows him to
**[17:52] Damnatio**
put up a barrier with a radius
about five times his height.
**[17:55] Damnatio**
If anyone tries to forcefully destroy
this barrier, it will explode.
**[18:00] Damnatio**
The third is Siona Caverly, 29 years old.
**[18:04] Damnatio**
She is a paper magic user who
can control any thickness
**[18:08] Damnatio**
and length of paper at will.
**[18:10] Jack**
None of them sound like
they're worth slicing up.
**[18:13] Marx**
We don't know for sure if they're involved
with the Devil Banishers just yet.
**[18:18] Yami**
Once we get proof they're involved,
you can slice them up all you want,
**[18:22] Yami**
but for now, help us figure out how we're
gonna save those girls, Beanpole Monster.
**[18:27] Nozel**
The Black Bull who has been captured
possesses arcane stage magic.
**[18:32] Nozel**
Since she stands a chance against the devil,
she is key in our strategy to fight it.
**[18:36] Nozel**
We cannot lose her.
**[18:38] Charlotte**
The other captive is also an
important citizen of this kingdom.
**[18:42] Charlotte**
We must get her back unharmed.
**[18:45] Yami**
Great thing to say, Prickly Queen.
**[18:48] Yami**
You're way smarter than
a certain beanpole we know.
**[18:51] Jack**
Shut up.
**[18:52] Charlotte**
* Yami praised me! Wait, now's not*
* the time to be happy about that.*
**[18:57] Fuegoleon**
Even if it was an ambush, it's hard to believe
**[19:00] Fuegoleon**
that Asta would let someone who's
not a fighter get the best of him.
**[19:03] Yami**
Well, they used a method he's
never had to deal with before.
**[19:06] Marx**
They used a sleeping potion on Asta.
**[19:09] Jack**
Well, that's pretty dirty.
**[19:13] Yami**
Our kid's trained, so he can dispel
any spells if he's attacked by magic
**[19:17] Yami**
and smack anyone back if
they physically hit him.
**[19:21] Yami**
So basically, he's only fought people
face-to-face up until now, so that was fine.
**[19:27] Nozel**
It would appear they have someone
rather intelligent in their ranks.
**[19:31] Nozel**
There is also the fact that they
used that magic item against us.
**[19:35] Jack**
So those guys call themselves
the Devil Banishers.
**[19:39] Jack**
They want to get rid of the devil, don't they?
**[19:42] Marx**
Yes.
**[19:43] Jack**
So why haven't they offed their captives
already? I'm sure they've had the chance.
**[19:48] Damnatio**
If we assume my subordinates are
indeed involved in this matter...
**[19:53] Damnatio**
Among the three, Kabwe has an
extremely strong sense of justice,
**[19:57] Damnatio**
and after the incident with
the Eye of the Midnight Sun,
**[20:00] Damnatio**
he grew to hate the devil even more.
**[20:03] Damnatio**
He was quite exasperated
that the execution of the
**[20:06] Damnatio**
devil-possessed had been delayed.
**[20:08] Jack**
Then wouldn't he kill them even quicker?
**[20:10] Jack**
Why would they bother wasting
time with sleeping potions?
**[20:14] Nozel**
I'm sure they had their reasons.
**[20:17] Jack**
Like what?
**[20:18] Damnatio**
If Kabwe is leading them,
**[20:20] Damnatio**
he would much prefer this be an actual
execution rather than an assassination.
**[20:24] Damnatio**
I'm sure he will try to take
their lives in front of
**[20:27] Damnatio**
the masses in the name of justice.
**[20:30] Damnatio**
So that he can gain the approval of the masses
and justify his own brand of justice.
**[20:35] Charlotte**
So he fancies himself a revolutionary.
**[20:37] Damnatio**
That seems like a rather effective
way to carry out their goal.
**[20:41] Jack**
Tch. Man, these assholes are a pain.
**[20:44] Fuegoleon**
But going with that assumption, it's very
likely the captives are still alive.
**[20:50] Yami**
Yeah.
**[20:51] Charlotte**
If they actually carried out
a public execution...
**[20:54] Nozel**
I'm sure there are citizens who
would agree with their justice.
**[20:58] Nozel**
Even I have seen those who are unhappy
with this kingdom's governance
**[21:01] Nozel**
ever since the attack by the
Eye of the Midnight Sun.

**[21:12] Marx**
If this keeps going, there might be an

**[21:18] Julius**
We must prepare for the imminent threat
from outside our kingdom right now,
**[21:21] Julius**
so we need to do everything
we can to avoid conflict within.
**[21:25] Julius**
That's just another reason we need
to put an end to their schemes.

with this public execution,
**[21:32] Fuegoleon**

**[21:35] Yami**
What's important is what we do then.
**[21:38] Julius**
Yes. I'd like you all to proceed with caution.
**[21:42] Julius**
There's still something off about all of this.
**[21:46] Julius**
It feels like we might be overlooking something.
