[00:08] Fenrys     All of you, please help yourselves, too. [00:11] All     Let's eat! [00:14] Blossom     These Halmburg steaks     are so tender and tasty! [00:17] Belano     Yeah. It's better than     the restaurants in town. [00:20] Balirossa     You're getting better and     better at this, Lady Rys. [00:23] Fenrys     Aw, that makes me so happy! [00:26] Fenrys     It's all thanks to Ms. Mileno. [00:29] Flio     You're still going to cooking classes? [00:31] Fenrys     The teacher I was seeing     before is in Houghtow now, [00:35] Fenrys     so I went to see her and say hello. [00:38] Fenrys     And then... [00:40] (Flashback) Fenrys     Ms. Mileno! [00:42] (Flashback) Mileno     Well! [00:43] (Flashback) Mileno     It's good to see you again, Rys. [00:45] (Flashback) Fenrys     I wanted to see you and give you my thanks. [00:49] (Flashback) Mileno     For what? [00:51] (Flashback) Fenrys     For this! [00:52] (Flashback) Fenrys     Thanks to your cooking lessons, [00:55] (Flashback) Fenrys     I was finally able to win my husband's heart! [00:59] (Flashback) Mileno     Oh, my! Congratulations, Rys! [01:02] (Flashback) Mileno     Now that you're married, today I'll teach     you a dish that's perfect for families. [01:09] Fenrys     Ms. Mileno got a bit ahead of herself... [01:12] Fenrys     So she taught me how to make     this dish that children love. [01:17] Blossom     Children, huh? [01:18] Balirossa     Well, they're married,     so there's always a chance. [01:22] Byleri     That's true! [01:29] Flio     Yes? [01:32] Fenrys     You're... [01:33] Flio     First Princess Elizabeth?     What brings you here? [01:37] Flio     I already declined your     request to be the hero. [01:41] Princess     Please forgive me for visiting unannounced. [01:44] Princess     I've come to apologize to you, Sir Flio. [01:48] Princess     Rather... [01:49] Princess     Summoned hero candidate, Sir Banaza. SIGN    Wolf and Adventurer [03:29] Balirossa     I-I don't know if this is appropriate     to serve to a princess, [03:33] Balirossa     b-but please help yourself, if you'd like. [03:35] Princess     Thank you. I shall. [03:39] Princess     I do apologize, but I have important     business to discuss with Sir Flio. [03:44] Princess     Might I ask the rest of you to leave us? [03:47] Balirossa     O-Of course. [03:48] Fenrys     I refuse to leave. [03:50] Fenrys     I've seen how the kingdom has     previously treated my husband. [03:54] Fenrys     I cannot, in good conscience,     leave you alone with him! [03:57] Flio     Rys... [04:01] Flio     All right. We'll do as you ask. [04:04] Fenrys     Darling... [04:06] Flio     Except for my wife, Rys. She stays here. [04:10] Flio     If this is something you can't     bring up in my wife's presence, [04:13] Flio     I'll ask you to leave. [04:21] Princess     Understood. [04:25] Balirossa     Come on, let's go. [04:35] Princess     Once again, Sir Banaza, [04:38] Princess     I apologize from the bottom of     my heart for the many injustices [04:42] Princess     this kingdom has committed against you. [04:45] Princess     Above all, [04:46] Princess     for the many spells cast upon the Bottomless     Bag you were given as a token of gratitude, [04:50] Princess     and for your banishment to Delaveza Forest, [04:53] Princess     I lack the words to sufficiently apologize. [04:56] Flio     Please raise your head, Your Highness. [04:59] Flio     I'm not Banaza right now. I'm Flio. [05:03] Flio     I'm a humble merchant, nothing more. [05:05] Princess     I suppose too much has happened     for you to accept my apology? [05:10] Flio     No matter how many times you     apologize, there's nothing I can do. [05:14] Flio     Anyway, can we get to the point now? [05:17] Flio     There's no way you, a princess,     came all this way just to apologize to me. [05:24] Princess     You've seen through me, then. [05:30] Princess     This is for you. [05:31] Flio     What is it? [05:33] Princess     A magic tool that shows where     Klyrode's army is deployed. [05:38] Princess     The lights you see on the map [05:39] Princess     represent the locations of the magic     stones that each unit leader carries. [05:44] Flio     That's top-secret information! [05:46] Flio     Why give this to me? [05:48] Princess     The effects of the Purification magic that was     cast around the castle town will soon wear off. [05:54] Princess     Once they do, the stalled Dark Army     will surely resume its advance. [06:00] Princess     But our mages exhausted their     magic to cast that spell, [06:04] Princess     and they have yet to fully recover. [06:06] Princess     Although we have made use of [06:08] Princess     our geographical advantage to place our     available troops in strategic locations, [06:12] Princess     there are certain towns that     we must leave unguarded. [06:15] Princess     So... [06:16] Princess     We would like to request your     assistance in protecting these towns. [06:22] Princess     I would not ask you to fight as the     hero for humanity's sake now. But— [06:28] Fenrys     Hang on! [06:29] Fenrys     That's just too selfish! [06:31] Fenrys     After all you've put him through already, [06:34] Fenrys     you want to involve my husband, a     man who hates fighting, in a war?! [06:39] Princess     The king, who has been bedridden since the     Purification casting, will soon awaken. [06:44] Princess     Because Sir Flio has connections with demons, [06:48] Princess     I suspect the king will     send troops after him. [06:52] Fenrys     Is that meant to be a threat? [06:55] Princess     No. [06:56] Princess     There are things I can only do now, while I     have the authority to act in the king's stead. [07:01] Flio     Such as? [07:02] Princess     To hold him accountable for his     defamation of the true hero, [07:06] Princess     and for his appointment of a false hero... [07:09] Princess     I will have the current king     of Klyrode abdicate the throne. [07:16] Princess     I would appreciate your assistance,     Sir Flio, in doing so. [07:20] Princess     Our king has protected this     kingdom from many dangers, [07:24] Princess     but he has failed to offer aid     to the weak, abandoning them. [07:30] Princess     I want to succeed the throne     and save all of our citizens. [07:35] Princess     To do that, I need to demonstrate the     same level of authority the king has. [07:41] Fenrys     You just want to use my husband     to install yourself as ruler! [07:46] Flio     Calm down, Rys. [07:49] Flio     You only want a guarantee that I won't     join the Dark One's forces, right? [07:54] Princess     Yet again, you've seen through me. [07:57] Fenrys     What does that mean? [07:59] Flio     Why would she share sensitive     information with me, [08:01] Flio     someone connected with the demons, [08:03] Flio     just to get me to protect a region     that isn't involved in the war? [08:07] Fenrys     Um... To get you to stay there and lay low? [08:12] Flio     Exactly. [08:14] Flio     The princess never counted me as a part of     the kingdom's fighting forces in this war. [08:20] Flio     Isn't that right? [08:22] Princess     I genuinely do not wish to     let any lands be abandoned. [08:27] Flio     It never occurred to you that I might     share this information with the demons? [08:33] Princess     Please consider that the greatest possible     proof of the trust I'm placing in you. [08:38] Princess     Sir Flio, I beg you to lend     me your aid during this time. [08:46] Vigilante1     Damn it! We lost them! [08:48] Vigilante2     They were definitely the duo     from the wanted posters, right? [08:51] Vigilante2     Where did they get off to?     We only looked away for a second! [08:58] Golden-Haired Hero     They're gone. [09:00] Tsuya     We finally got out of that hole, [09:02] Tsuya     but we just have to keep     running around again. [09:05] Tsuya     I'm exhausted. [09:08] Golden-Haired Hero     Stop crying! I will not allow     them to capture me here! [09:13] Golden-Haired Hero     In order to make my comeback as a hero, [09:15] Golden-Haired Hero     I must shake off these pursuers! [09:19] Tsuya     I'm also hungry. [09:22] Golden-Haired Hero     I told you to stop crying! [09:24] Golden-Haired Hero     Tsk... I think I had... [09:27] Golden-Haired Hero     Here. [09:28] Tsuya     Are you sure? [09:30] Tsuya     But we have so few rations left already. [09:33] Golden-Haired Hero     Just eat it. [09:35] Tsuya     Thank you! [09:37] Golden-Haired Hero     Anyway, I'm surprised you     decided to follow me, Tsuya. [09:44] Tsuya     I could say the same to you, Hero. [09:48] Tsuya     Wouldn't it have been easier to     escape without me slowing you down? [09:54] Golden-Haired Hero     W-Well, yes, perhaps... [09:57] Tsuya     I don't want to live as a     refugee forever, either. [10:01] Tsuya     And... [10:03] Tsuya     The moment when you opened     the door to our cell... [10:08] Tsuya     You were kind of dashing, you know. [10:13] Tsuya     Though I do think you went about     some things the wrong way... [10:17] Golden-Haired Hero     Oh, be quiet! [10:18] Golden-Haired Hero     You keep calling me a hero,     but we're still done for if I die! [10:22] Golden-Haired Hero     I had no choice! [10:24] Golden-Haired Hero     Now, let's go. [10:28] Tsuya     H-Hero! [10:30] Golden-Haired Hero     Tsuya! [10:33] Golden-Haired Hero     Wh-What is this?! [10:39] Phufun     I went looking for a sacrifice and     nabbed quite a fine-looking man. [10:52] Fenrys     Darling, may I join you? [10:55] Flio     Huh? Yeah, of course. [11:02] Fenrys     Were you thinking about what     the princess asked of you? [11:05] Flio     Yeah. [11:07] Flio     I really hate the idea of fighting, but... [11:11] Flio     I can't just sit around doing nothing when     I know there are towns that might suffer. [11:17] Fenrys     Darling... [11:19] Flio     And I've been thinking for a long time [11:22] Flio     about what it is I should do in this world, [11:25] Flio     and what I want to do. [11:27] Flio     If we have a child together one day, [11:31] Flio     I want that child to live happily together     with both human and demon children. [11:37] Flio     I have to create that world for them. [11:40] Flio     I know it won't be easy. [11:42] Flio     But if there's anything I can do     to accomplish that, I'll do it. [11:48] Fenrys     I know you are capable of doing things     others would think impossible. [11:53] Fenrys     There may not be much I can do,     but I'll help in any way I can. [11:59] Flio     Thanks, Rys. [12:09] Watchman     To the northeast! Near the forest entrance! [12:12] Watchman     Large army headed this way! [12:14] Town Man1     The Dark Army is coming! [12:16] Town Man1     Get as far away as you can! [12:18] Town Man2     Come on, hurry! [12:42] Flio     Run away while you can! Go! [12:47] Fenrys     I did say that I'd help you, [12:49] Fenrys     but accepting a tedious job     like this with no reward? [12:53] Fenrys     You are much too kind, Darling. [12:55] Flio     If I accepted a reward, [12:57] Flio     it would mean I sided with     the humans for money. [13:01] Flio     I lost this the moment     I heard out her request. [13:05] Fenrys     L-Lost? Does that mean you're     going to marry the princess?! [13:10] Flio     Of course not! [13:11] Fenrys     There are several demon races whose     members take multiple wives... [13:16] Fenrys     Wh-What am I to do? [13:18] Flio     I told you, I'm not going to marry her! [13:20] Lower Demon2     A lupine is associating with a human?! [13:23] Lower Demon2     Just who are you?! [13:25] Flio     We're this town's guards. [13:27] Flio     If you guys agree to     withdraw, we'll let you go. [13:31] Flio     But if you intend to inflict     more harm upon the people here, [13:35] Flio     we'll show no mercy. [13:35] Lower Demon2     No mercy, you say?! Don't underestimate us! [13:39] Lower Demon3     You're just a puny human! [13:41] Flio     I'm not underestimating you. [13:43] Flio     I'm just saying it'd be a waste     of energy for both of us. [13:46] Fenrys     You guys can't break through this     barrier spell anyway, can you? [13:54] Cyclops     Move. [13:58] Cyclops     I will break it. [14:00] Fenrys     That's a cyclops. [14:02] Fenrys     There's no other race in the Dark     Army with more superhuman strength. [14:06] Fenrys     This one serves Yuigarde,     Ghozal's younger brother. [14:09] Cyclops     A lupine, eh? [14:11] Cyclops     A cowardly race with a foolish     leader who got himself killed, [14:14] Cyclops     despite calling himself one of     the Dark Army's Infernal Four. [14:19] Cyclops     You are no match for me. [14:21] Fenrys     Darling, would you allow     me to handle this one? [14:26] Flio     Rys... [14:27] Fenrys     It is true that my brother,     Fengaryl, was defeated. [14:31] Fenrys     As one of the Dark Army's highest officers, [14:33] Fenrys     perhaps it is only right     that we be held accountable. [14:36] Fenrys     However... [14:37] Fenrys     If my brother's defeat leads     you to belittle the lupines, [14:40] Fenrys     a race that values military     might above all else, [14:44] Fenrys     as his younger sister, I cannot sit     quietly and overlook such an insult. [14:48] Fenrys     I will show this arrogant fool just     how vastly we differ in strength. [14:54] Flio     I can't say I'm okay with that, [14:57] Flio     but if it's that important to you, [15:00] Flio     I guess I don't have any     business interfering. [15:02] Flio     Don't kill him, though. [15:04] Fenrys     Understood. [15:09] Cyclops     All you know how to do is bark, you mutt! [15:11] Cyclops     Just keep quiet and let that     magic wall protect you! [15:15] Fenrys     You'll never hit me with such wide swings! [15:19] Cyclops     Why, you... [15:28] Cyclops     And you really think you can     defeat me with such weak attacks? [15:33] Fenrys     Indeed, when you have such tough flesh armor, [15:36] Fenrys     it takes a bit of effort to     stop myself from killing you. [15:40] Fenrys     Long ago, I might have tried     to just finish you off quickly, [15:45] Fenrys     but I have since learned a     little thing called restraint. [15:48] Cyclops     What? [15:49] Fenrys     You should be grateful to my husband! [15:52] Fenrys     Meteoric Leap! [15:58] Fenrys     Positional Exchange! [16:01] Cyclops     You swapped my position with yours?! [16:05] Cyclops     Don't think that will be enough to stop me! [16:11] Fenrys     Positional Exchange! [16:16] Fenrys     No matter how thick those muscles     you pride yourself on may be, [16:20] Fenrys     once a wound's open, it's an easy target. [16:23] Fenrys     Gravity! [16:28] Fenrys     And now you're pinned down. [16:30] Fenrys     I'm quite sure it's impossible,     but would you like to keep going? [16:34] Cyclops     You fight with the same insolent     methods as the humans! [16:38] Fenrys     That insolence is the only     reason you're still alive. [16:42] Cyclops     Damn you! [16:44] Cyclops     Hey! Why are all of you just gawking?! [16:46] Cyclops     Crush her! Do not spare the one     who betrayed the Dark Army! [16:52] Flio     That's enough. [16:55] Lower Demon5     I can't move! [16:59] Fenrys     I'm more than capable of     fighting all of them, Darling. [17:04] Flio     We already have a winner. [17:06] Flio     There's no need to keep fighting. [17:08] Flio     I already know perfectly     well how strong you are. [17:11] Fenrys     Oh, Darling! [17:14] Flio     Heal. [17:19] Cyclops     What are you playing at?! [17:21] Flio     I told you. I want all of you to withdraw. [17:25] Flio     I could use Teleportation to     send you all to Delaveza Forest, [17:29] Flio     but you'd just come right back, wouldn't you? [17:32] Flio     So I want you to leave on your own. [17:35] Cyclops     Y-You make no sense!     Just who are you, anyway? [17:40] Flio     I'm just a human who happened to     make friends with this demon here. [17:47] Flio     I'd like it if I could be     friends with all of you, too, [17:50] Flio     but if you absolutely refuse... [17:54] Flio     I'll face you as many times as I need to. [17:58] Flio     Until you all fold. [18:07] Flio     We finally managed to get them to leave. [18:09] Fenrys     You were absolutely wonderful, Darling! [18:12] Fenrys     All that time spent practicing     your posturing at home paid off! [18:17] (Flashback) Fenrys     What's most important in     a battle is intimidation. [18:21] (Flashback) Fenrys     You have to spook your opponent. [18:23] (Flashback) Flio     Huh?! [18:24] (Flashback) Fenrys     Put your hands on your hips,     raise your chin 45 degrees, [18:27] (Flashback) Fenrys     and send them running with your gaze alone! [18:31] Flio     That made me more nervous than     any business discussion ever did. [18:35] Fenrys     Still, are you sure that     was the right thing to do? [18:39] Fenrys     They will attack again the     moment they're ordered to. [18:44] Fenrys     Shouldn't we have tortured     them much more brutally [18:46] Fenrys     and chipped away at their will to fight back? [18:50] Flio     Rys... [18:52] Flio     Yeah, that might be a better way     to ensure they don't come back, [18:57] Flio     but wouldn't it just make the hatred between     humans and demons grow even greater? [19:02] Fenrys     The... hatred? [19:06] Town Man3     Hello, kind sir. [19:09] Town Man3     Thank you so much for saving our town. [19:14] Town Man3     B-But... why is this wolf here? [19:18] Flio     You don't need to worry. [19:21] Flio     This is my partner. [19:26] Girl     U-Um... [19:28] Girl     Thank you... for helping me earlier. [19:33] Fenrys     It's a relief to see that you're unhurt. [19:36] Flio     We came here per the orders     of the first princess. [19:40] Flio     She's the one you should thank. [19:42] Town Man4     The first princess?! [19:44] Town Man3     Oh, I'm so grateful! [19:52] Soldier     I bring news. [19:54] Soldier     We have received numerous reports     of an unknown adventurer [19:57] Soldier     appearing in multiple regions and     chasing Dark Army forces away. [20:01] Minister1     An unknown adventurer? Who? [20:04] Soldier     Well, he was accompanied by a silver wolf, [20:07] Soldier     and hid his face behind a wolf-like mask. [20:10] Soldier     Reports say he disperses the     Dark Army's forces, then simply leaves, [20:13] Soldier     without giving his name. [20:15] Minister1     He just leaves?     Without even demanding any money? [20:19] Soldier     Correct. [20:20] Soldier     However, he has said that     the first princess sent him. [20:24] Soldier     Letters of thanks to the princess     are now arriving from all over. [20:29] Minister1     Don't tell me this adventurer is... [20:32] Princess     Yes. There's no doubt that it's him. [20:36] Princess     Sir Flio accepted my request. [20:41] Minister1     Inform all Klyrode forces     throughout the kingdom. [20:44] Minister1     Tell them that if they see this     adventurer with the silver wolf, [20:47] Minister1     they are to give him their full cooperation. [20:49] Soldier     Yes, sir. [20:50] Princess     Sir Flio has done all this for me. [20:54] Princess     I must return the favor to him sometime. [21:02] Gholl     Yuigarde... [21:04] Gholl     How dare he act without     receiving orders from me? [21:07] Greanyl     Lord Gholl. [21:09] Greanyl     Pardon my intrusion. [21:10] Greanyl     Lady Uliminas has reported an emergency. [21:14] Gholl     What is it? [21:14] Greanyl     Sir Yuigarde is staging an insurrection. [21:17] Greanyl     She says he has occupied the throne     room along with his closest aides. [21:23] Yuigarde     Phufun, all is in place, yes? [21:26] Phufun     Yes. [21:27] Phufun     Most auspiciously, we've picked up     some humans with rather high stats. [21:32] Phufun     When you face Lord Gholl, we should perform     the secret art borrowed from the evil god [21:36] Phufun     by deploying a magic circle for     the Rite of Superhybridization. [21:40] Phufun     These two can serve as     sacrifices to the evil god. [21:44] Tsuya     Hrmlp mwee! [21:46] Golden-Haired hero     Hrf! Ywm wrll pfwy frr zhss! [21:49] Phufun     Even in the face of Lord Gholl, [21:52] Phufun     I believe this ritual     will assure your victory. [21:57] Yuigarde     All right... [21:59] Yuigarde     Hurry up and get here, Gholl! [22:02] Yuigarde     I will defeat you,     and this throne will be mine! [23:40] Princess     This is the first princess. [23:42] Princess     The next episode previews     are always so lively, [23:44] Princess     yet I'm doing it alone. Why is this? [23:47] Princess     And my credit is still "Princess,"     even though I have a name... [23:49] Golden-Haired Here     I hear you, Princess! [23:51] Princess     Golden-Haired Hero!
