[00:01] Doctor
    You seem to be making good progress.
[00:03] Doctor
    I think you're at around 30% now.
[00:06] Blade
    Does that mean I can use my powers again?
[00:08] Doctor
    Not at all.
[00:10] Doctor
    It means that you'll die if you use 30%
    of what used to be your full power.
[00:14] Blade
    What?!
[00:17] Claire
    Blade.
[00:19] Blade
    Oh, what's up?
[00:23] Claire
    This is Maria.
[00:25] Claire
    She's my friend, and...
[00:26] Blade
    Oh, I remember her!
[00:28] Blade
    She was in the magic unit when we fought Cu.
[00:31] Maria
    Oh, yes...
[00:32] Blade
    She tripped all the time during training...
[00:34] Blade
    and in the actual fight, I think she hurled
    a fireball in the wrong direction...
[00:38] Claire
    Hey! Blade!
[00:39] Blade
    What do you call people like her, again?
[00:43] Blade
    That's right!
[00:44] Blade
    A klutz, that was it!
[00:47] Blade
    Ah, sorry.
[00:48] Maria
    It's fine...
[00:50] Maria
    It's true that I'm clumsy.
[00:52] Claire
    Um, it seems she has a favor to ask of you.
[00:56] Blade
    Me?
[00:57] Maria
    Y-Yes.
[00:59] Maria
    Blade...
[01:00] Maria
    Can you please...
[01:02] Maria
    kill me?
[01:05] Maria
    Oh, no!
[01:07] Maria
    I meant that I want you to kill me
     when I lose control of myself.

[01:11] Earnest
    What do you mean by that?
SIGN    The Demon King's
     Daughter
[01:12] Maria
    Um, the truth is... I'm not human.
[01:17] Group
    What?
[01:18] Blade
    Yeah, you're a night demon, right?
[01:20] Maria
    You can tell?
[01:21] Blade
    Well, I had a hunch.
[01:23] Maria
    There's something else
     that exists inside me.
[01:27] Maria
    A magical beast with fearsome powers.
[01:31] Maria
    Just once before, when I was
    having a very hard time...
[01:36] Maria
    Ah!
[01:37] Maria
    I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
[01:39] Maria
    This is what happens when
    I can't control my strength!
[01:42] Claire
    It's okay, Maria.
[01:44] Claire
    Take a deep breath.
[01:45] Maria
    Until now, I was able to
    somehow keep it in check.
[01:48] Maria
    But ever since then, I haven't
    been able to fully hold it back.
[01:52] Blade
    You mean when we fought Cu?
[01:54] Blade
    Touching fighting spirit, which flowed
    through your magic energy conduits,
[01:57] Blade
    made you lose control of your powers.
[01:59] Earnest
    You mean, unless we do something, that beast
    is going to come out and wreak havoc?
[02:03] Maria
    Yes.
[02:04] Maria
    But I have nowhere else to go if
    I get kicked out of the academy.
[02:08] Claire
    Maria was originally at
    Rosewood Junior School, like I was.
[02:13] Claire
    She's worked hard for so
    long to enter this academy.
[02:17] Maria
    My mother and father are gone.
[02:19] Maria
    I don't have a home to go back to.
[02:22] Maria
    That's why I need to do
    something about these powers!
[02:26] Blade
    Sure.
[02:27] Blade
    I know what it's like,
    since my parents are gone, too.
[02:30] Blade
    I'll help you out.
[02:31] Sophie
    Me, too.
[02:32] Sophie
    I never knew my mother or father.
[02:33] Yessica
    I'll help you as well.
[02:35] Group
    Us, too!
[02:36] Leonard
    And I as well, naturally.
[02:37] Cu
    I'm friends with Maria now!
[02:39] Cu
    It's only natural to help out a friend!
[02:42] Earnest
    H-Hey!
[02:43] Earnest
    I want to help out, too!
[02:47] Maria
    Thank you so much, everyone!
[02:52] Sophie
    A magic barrier?
[02:53] Earnest
    Whoa, how much power is this?!
[02:55] Blade
    Oh, I asked Claire and Yessica to adjust it,
[02:58] Blade
    so it should be cranked up to max power.
[03:00] Group
    Yay!
[03:01] Earnest
    You didn't ask for permission, did you?
[03:03] Blade
    All right, looks like we're all set.
[03:06] Blade
    You've been holding back
    your powers this whole time,
[03:08] Blade
    so I thought you could try
    releasing them just this once.
[03:11] Maria
    No!
[03:12] Maria
    I mustn't!
[03:13] Blade
    That's why we prepared all this.
[03:15] Blade
    Earnest is living proof that it can work.
[03:17] Earnest
    Well, I suppose.
[03:19] Maria
    I can't ever do that!
[03:20] Maria
    I must not unleash these powers!
[03:23] Maria
    I need to keep them locked up
     for the rest of my life...
[03:27] Earnest
    Maria.
[03:29] Earnest
    Why don't we try following
    Blade's suggestion?
[03:31] Earnest
    It saved me once before.
[03:35] Earnest
    It is kind of a stupid method, though.
[03:38] Blade
    Don't call it stupid!
[03:39] Earnest
    What part of it isn't stupid, dummy?!
[03:41] Blade
    Shut up, dummy!
[03:46] Maria
    I understand.
[03:47] Maria
    I'll put my faith in Blade
    and the rest of you.
[03:51] Maria
    I leave it to you if the worst comes to pass.
[03:54] Blade
    Yeah. We've got this.
[03:55] Maria
    Okay, here I go.
[04:01] Maria
    Each of these limits my power by half.
[04:05] Maria
    Another one.
[04:07] Sophie
    Now it's four times the power.
[04:08] Maria
    And another.
[04:10] Sophie
    Eight times.
[04:11] Earnest
    Sixteen times?!
[04:14] Maria
    And finally...
[04:16] Maria
    This is the most powerful sealing item,
[04:19] Maria
    restricting my power to one-tenth.
[04:22] Blade
    Which means...
[04:23] Sophie
    One hundred and sixty times.
[04:25] Earnest
    Wait, Maria!
[04:26] Maria
    Huh?
[04:32] Maria
    She's...
[04:33] Maria
    She's about to come out!
[04:34] Maria
    Oh, no! I can't hold her back!
[04:37] Blade
    Don't hold back!
[04:38] Blade
    We'll take care of her!
[04:40] Blade
    Believe in your friends!
[05:00] Earnest
    Blade, that's...
[05:08] Blade
    The Demon King...
[05:17] Mao
    Bow before me!
[05:18] Mao
    Fear me! Worship me!
[05:21] Mao
    Rejoice in the birth of the Demon King
    with cries of lament and rancor!
[05:26] Sophie
    That's the Demon King?
[05:28] Blade
    No.
[05:29] Blade
    But the satanic crest on her forehead...
[05:31] Earnest
    Consume my flesh, Asmodeus!
[05:43] Leonard
    My lord!
[05:44] Leonard
    How dare you!
[05:50] Mao
    Is that all?
[05:57] Mao
    Hm?
[06:01] Sophie
    Artificial Great Hero Power:
     Ultimate Gravity.
[06:08] Mao
    Oh, I can't move after that.
[06:11] Sophie
    I leave the rest to you...
[06:13] Mao
    Well, then, are you ready?
[06:24] Mao
    So hot.
[06:28] Mao
    Here.
[06:29] Mao
    You can have it back.
[06:42] Mao
    Are you the last one left?
[06:44] Mao
    Okay.
[06:45] Mao
    Once I'm out of here,
    I'll lay waste to the royal capital.
[06:53] Mao
    What's the meaning of this?
[06:55] Mao
    Don't tell me you're trying
    to take the Demon King alive?
[06:58] Blade
    Found me out?
[07:01] Mao
    You're a funny one.
[07:03] Mao
    Fight me seriously.
[07:05] Mao
    Or I'll kill you.
[07:08] Mao
    I'm here to kill you.
[07:10] Mao
    If you don't intend to kill me,
    I'll make sure you die.
[07:15] Blade
    Don't give out on me, body!
[07:17] Mao
    Hm?
[07:25] Mao
    Is that all you've got?
[07:26] Mao
    If so, now it's my turn.
[07:28] Mao
    Don't die in one shot now.
[07:30] Blade
    Hey, wait!
[07:32] Mao
    Sun Ray.
[07:44] Mao
    Oh? You're still alive?
[07:47] Earnest
    Blade.
[07:48] Blade
    Earnest! Don't push yourself!
[07:50] Earnest
    Take this...
[07:58] Blade
    Asmodeus.
[08:00] Asmodeus
    This goes very much against my will,
[08:02] Asmodeus
    but it is what my master desires.
[08:04] Asmodeus
    I shall consider this a limited contract.
[08:06] Mao
    Oh? Now that's a fine weapon.
[08:09] Mao
    It looks like I can expect
    a somewhat amusing fight.
[08:12] Blade
    Sorry. I don't fight to amuse anyone.
[08:16] Blade
    I'll be ending this with one blow.
[08:18] Mao
    You think you can take down
    the Demon King in one blow?
[08:20] Mao
    Interesting!
[08:22] Mao
    Show me, then!
[08:31] Asmodeus
    S-Stop that!
[08:32] Asmodeus
    I'm not sure if even I can
    fully handle such power!
[08:34] Blade
    Quit your grumbling.
[08:36] Blade
    You're Earnest's sword,
    so bear it with sheer willpower.
[08:39] Blade
    Here I go!
[08:40] Blade
    Holy Demon Blade!
[08:42] Mao
    Come forth!
[08:50] Mao
    Pretty impressive.
[08:56] Mao
    Th-This can't be!
[08:58] Mao
    I'm being overpowered?!
[09:00] Mao
    You!
[09:01] Mao
    What the hell are you?!
[09:04] Blade
    Just your ordinary fellow.
[09:06] Blade
    At least, I am now!
[09:29] Blade
    I'm just glad no one ended up dying...
[09:34] Blade
    Huh?
[09:45] Blade
    I'm...
[09:50] Doctor
    You idiot!
[09:53] Doctor
    You big, fat idiot!
[09:54] Doctor
    You don't have to be so reckless anymore!
[09:57] Doctor
    Why do you always make me worry so much?!
[09:59] Blade
    Um...
[10:00] Doctor
    You were dead, you know!
[10:03] Doctor
    If I hadn't gotten to you in time,
    you would have been a goner!
[10:07] Doctor
    Last time, you promised you
    wouldn't make me cry again!
[10:10] Doctor
    You liar!
[10:14] Blade
    Sorry.
[10:15] Blade
    I'll be careful from now on.
[10:18] Blade
    And the others?
[10:19] Doctor
    They'll be fine.
[10:20] Doctor
    Claire is treating them as we speak.
[10:23] Blade
    I see.
[10:25] Blade
    And what about her?
[10:27] Doctor
    She's alive.
[10:31] Maria
    I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
[10:32] Mao
    Pretty impressive.
[10:35] Girl Student A
    Good morning!
[10:36] Boy Student A
    Good morning!
[10:37] Group
    Good morning!
[10:38] Group
    G-Good morning!
[10:41] Mao
    Good morning.
[10:43] Blade
    Hey, good morning.
[10:44] Mao
    Good morning, Great Hero—
[10:48] Mao
    So I was right.
[10:50] Mao
    Now I have something to use against you.
[10:53] Blade
    Stop it, Maria. Seriously.
[10:55] Mao
    Maria is a different personality.
[10:58] Blade
    Then who are you?
[10:59] Mao
    I don't... have a name.
[11:03] Mao
    No one's ever given me one.
[11:05] Girl Student D
    De-mao!
[11:06] Girl Student E
    Good morning, De-mao!
[11:08] Mao
    Good morning.
[11:10] Blade
    De-mao?
[11:12] King
    It's true.
[11:14] King
    I am the one who welcomed
    Maria into this school.
[11:18] King
    I'm aware of her identity.
[11:21] King
    Maria's mother was human.
[11:24] King
    Unfortunately, she's passed away.
[11:27] Blade
    And her father?
[11:28] King
    His fate is unknown.
[11:30] King
    However, we know who he is.
[11:35] King
    Her father was once known
    as the Demon King.
[11:39] King
    In other words, she's the
    Demon King's daughter.
[11:51] Claire
    She really has gotten used to life here.
[11:53] Kassim
    But she's dangerous, right?
[11:56] Kassim
    Is it okay to leave her alone like this?
[11:57] Earnest
    Well...
[11:59] Earnest
    His Majesty decided to let her go free,
[12:01] Earnest
    saying, "I'll take full responsibility!"
[12:07] Mao
    Right now, with my powers curbed,
    I'm just an ordinary young girl.
[12:10] Mao
    If you tell me to attend school, I'll do so,
[12:13] Mao
    and if you tell me to wear this
    frilly garb, I will oblige.
[12:16] Yessica
    You say that, but don't you really
    just want to wear cute clothes?
[12:20] Clay
    Stop that, Yessica!
[12:21] Kassim
    Don't make her angry!
[12:23] Mao
    Hm.
[12:24] Mao
    If I'm honest, it does set my heart aflutter.
[12:28] Mao
    This frilly garb is quite something.
[12:36] Earnest
    Mao!
[12:37] Earnest
    Let those girls go back to
    their classrooms already!
[12:40] Mao
    I didn't ask them to come here.
[12:42] Blade
    Hey, why are you calling her Mao?
[12:44] Earnest
    Think of it like a nickname.
[12:47] Earnest
    Everyone calls her De-mao,
    but Mao is shorter.
[12:50] Mao
    I see.
[12:51] Mao
    Yes. I am almighty, and generous as well.
[12:54] Mao
    I will allow this young girl to call me Mao.
[12:56] Cu
    Dragons are the almighty ones!
[12:58] Mao
    What'd you say, whelp?
[13:00] Mao
    Do you want a rematch?
[13:02] Cu
    Parent!
[13:06] Earnest
    That's enough.
[13:07] Earnest
    Break time is over.
[13:08] Mao
    Great— I mean, Blade.
[13:11] Mao
    I'd happily welcome a
    rematch with you any day.
[13:15] Mao
    Now then, let us be off.
[13:19] Claire
    Um...
[13:20] Claire
    Mao and Maria are distinct
    personalities, right?
[13:23] Sophie
    Yes.
[13:24] Claire
    Then how come Maria hasn't
    shown herself ever since then?
[13:28] Earnest
    That's a good point.
[13:30] Claire
    I'm scared.
[13:31] Claire
    Scared that I'll never be
    able to see Maria again.
[13:48] Mao
    Good morning, Great Hero Blade.
[13:51] Blade
    That's not right!
[13:52] Mao
    I see.
[13:54] Mao
    I suppose I should say, "Good evening."
[13:56] Blade
    Well, what do you want?
[13:58] Mao
    Yes. I'm here to invite you.
[14:01] Mao
    I heard about it from a fellow classmate.
[14:03] Mao
    She called it a da...
[14:05] Mao
    Yes, a date!
[14:06] Blade
    Huh?
[14:07] Blade
    Listen up!
[14:08] Blade
    A date begins at 1000 hours...
[14:11] Blade
    H-Hey!
[14:13] Mao
    Look, Great Hero.
[14:14] Mao
    The moons are beautiful tonight.
[14:16] Blade
    Seriously, stop calling me that!
[14:19] Blade
    Besides, the moons are always out at night!
[14:22] Mao
    Maria spent all her time
    staring at the ground.
[14:27] Blade
    Oh, yeah. How old are you, anyway?
[14:30] Blade
    You don't seem to know a whole lot.
[14:33] Mao
    I began to gain self-awareness
    around five years ago.
[14:38] Blade
    Huh? You're five years old?
[14:39] Mao
    Age is no matter to a magical beast.
[14:42] Mao
    As a lady, however, I don't appreciate
    being treated as a child.
[14:46] Blade
    You're a lady now?
[14:49] Mao
    Can't you see for yourself?
[14:54] Mao
    And here I am, so attached to you.
[14:57] Blade
    Is that right?
[14:58] Mao
    The reason I've stayed at this school
    is because of you, Great Hero.
[15:03] Blade
    You looked like you were enjoying
    life here at the academy.
[15:06] Mao
    Yes, there's that, too.
[15:09] Mao
    I do enjoy that frilly garb.
[15:11] Mao
    However, a magical beast
    seeks out strength by nature.
[15:14] Mao
    Everything else can be
    discarded when it sees fit.
[15:17] Mao
    And yet, I'm attached to you,
    for reasons I don't fully understand.
[15:21] Mao
    Even though you've grown weaker
    since our previous fight.
[15:26] Blade
    I was told that I'll die if I use
     15% of my power next time.
[15:31] Mao
    As you are, you're not a
    foe worth even killing.
[15:34] Mao
    But I've made up my mind.
[15:37] Mao
    I won't leave this place
    until I've killed you.
[15:40] Blade
    Man, that's brutal.
[15:43] Mao
    It's not good to be unaware
    of your own feelings.
[15:46] Mao
    I've thought about it,
    and came up with a hypothesis.
[15:51] Mao
    That is...
[15:53] Mao
    Perhaps I've become attracted to you.
[16:00] Blade
    What?!
[16:01] Mao
    It's just a hypothesis,
[16:02] Mao
    which is why I want to test it out.
[16:08] Mao
    Won't you be my mate?
[16:10] Blade
    I don't really know what that'd involve...
[16:15] Mao
    Neither do I.
[16:17] Mao
    You do realize I'm five.
[16:18] Blade
    Wouldn't it be easier to
     head over to a testing ground,
[16:20] Blade
    and fight until we're both satisfied?
[16:24] Mao
    You're in no shape to fight.
[16:27] Mao
    What's more, I can't take
    this off of my own volition.
[16:32] Mao
    Maria's consciousness
     within me resists it.
[16:36] Mao
    She's so weak, yet she defies me...
[16:40] Mao
    At the very least, I suppose she
    did bring me into this world.
[16:43] Blade
    What happened to Maria?
[16:45] Mao
    Are Claire and the others worried?
[16:47] Mao
    She's hiding away in the
    deepest recesses of the mind.
[16:53] Mao
    Despite appearances, there are dark
    shadows stewing within Maria's heart.
[16:58] Mao
    She was scorned and feared by humans...
[17:02] Mao
    She rued her misfortune, forced to
    live in hiding with only our mother.
[17:08] Mao
    Our mother believed in our father.
[17:10] Mao
    However, Maria could not have faith in him.
[17:15] Mao
    Eventually, our mother died,
     and Maria's mind was flooded with doubt.
[17:20] Mao
    Could it be that our father
    had not loved our mother?
[17:23] Mao
    Why had he abandoned the human realm?
[17:26] Mao
    Could it be that our father was
    the cause of all of her suffering?
[17:31] Mao
    I was born in order to escape
    that unbearable pain in her mind.
[17:38] Blade
    I see...
[17:39] Mao
    So perhaps Maria might never return.
[17:43] Mao
    It would be easier that way.
[17:46] Mao
    I've told you all this because you're
    closer to our kind than to humanity.
[17:50] Mao
    One more thing I like about you.
[17:53] Blade
    That's all in the past now.
SIGN    A few days later
[17:58] Eliza
    From my research, I just can't see how
    that pendant could be a sealing item!
[18:04] Group
    What?
[18:04] Blade
    Um... who is this?
[18:06] Claire
    She's Maria's friend...
[18:07] Eliza
    Eliza!
[18:09] Earnest
    Are you sure it's not a sealing item?
[18:11] Eliza
    I'm absolutely certain!
[18:13] Eliza
    If I'm wrong, I swear to disembowel myself!
[18:17] Earnest
    You don't have to go that far!
[18:19] Mao
    You say that, but I'm definitely
    being restricted by this item.
[18:24] Blade
    What kind of item is it?
[18:26] Eliza
    Right.
[18:27] Eliza
    I haven't been able to fully analyze it,
[18:30] Eliza
    but I believe that it's some
    sort of recording device.
[18:33] Sophie
    Recording?
[18:34] Eliza
    You could consider it a type of message cube.
[18:36] Eliza
    This is just conjecture,
[18:38] Eliza
    but it may contain a message from
    the person who gave you that pendant.
[18:41] Mao
    Going by Maria's memories,
    this was a keepsake from our mother.
[18:46] Eliza
    Let me warn you beforehand.
[18:48] Eliza
    I believe that recording could
    serve to bring Maria back.
[18:53] Eliza
    That would mean...
[18:55] Mao
    I see.
[18:56] Mao
    It could end up destroying me,
    the Demon King.
[19:00] Mao
    How fascinating.
[19:03] Eliza
    Would we be okay if we play it?
[19:09] Mao
    Yes, go ahead.
[19:12] Eliza
    In that case, let us begin.
[19:19] Claire
    Perhaps we could have become friends, too.
[19:22] Claire
    If it didn't mean losing Maria...
[19:24] Mao
    Rest assured.
[19:26] Mao
    It seems that one of us
    is destined to disappear.
[19:29] Mao
    I'm sure whoever remains will
    be friends with you all.
[19:33] Eliza
    I'm ready now.
[19:35] Eliza
    Please open the pendant.
[19:37] Mao
    Yes.
[19:53] Blade
    The Demon King.
[19:55] Sophie
    So this is the Demon King?
[19:57] Yessica
    Huh, he's pretty hot!
[20:04] Demon King
    My beloved Emilia.
[20:06] Earnest
    Emilia?
[20:07] Mao
    Our mother's name.
[20:09] Demon King
    Find it in your heart to forgive
    me for leaving you behind...
[20:13] Demon King
    No, resent me.
[20:15] Demon King
    There is a foe whom I must face in combat.
[20:19] Demon King
    I do not wish to take you
    down this bloodied path.
[20:23] Demon King
    You may think it self-serving of me...
[20:25] Demon King
    but there is a reason I cannot.
[20:28] Demon King
    You may not have realized it yet,
[20:31] Demon King
    but your body houses a brand-new life.
[20:35] Demon King
    To think that I, a magical beast,
    could sire a child with a human.
[20:39] Demon King
    Be it a boy or a girl,
    I've chosen names.
[20:43] Demon King
    Ortous if it is male.
[20:45] Demon King
    If it is female, Maria.
[20:48] Demon King
    Once that child can understand language,
    tell them this:
[20:52] Demon King
    Their father is dead.
[21:00] Mao
    How long are you going to hide in here for?
[21:04] Mao
    It's no fun beating someone
    as useless as you.
[21:08] Maria
    I'm...
[21:14] Demon King
    Emilia. My child yet unseen.
[21:17] Demon King
    I swear upon my satanic crest that
    I will continue loving you both.
[21:25] Demon King
    Forevermore, though my body may perish.
[21:31] Blade
    Mao, you're...
[21:33] Mao
    Yes.
[21:34] Mao
    I can barely control my body now.
[21:38] Mao
    It seems that the strength of our wills
     plays a role in this battle, too.
[21:42] Mao
    As we speak, the two of us are fighting
    to see which one gets to survive.
[21:51] Mao
    It looks like I'm about to
    be annihilated by Maria.
[21:54] Blade
    H-Hey...
[21:56] Mao
    It's almost time.
[21:58] Mao
    Go on, call her name.
[22:05] Mao
    I don't mind.
[22:09] Group
    Maria!
[22:41] Kassim
    Blade!
[22:43] Clay
    Don't you lose to her!
[22:44] Claire
    Maria! You can do it!
[22:45] Student
    Maria! Show us the usual!
[22:48] Maria
    Um... do you mind?
[22:50] Blade
    It's fine.
[22:51] Maria
    Okay...
[22:57] Mao
    Come, Blade!
[22:58] Mao
    Your life ends here!
[23:01] Blade
    Let's go!
[23:08] Claire
    Mao didn't disappear, which means...
[23:11] Eliza
    It must be because Maria
    wants to coexist with her.
[23:15] Eliza
    This is the future she wanted.
[23:18] Blade
    Surrender already!
[23:20] Mao
    The Demon King would never...
[23:23] Earnest
    Mao!
[23:24] Earnest
    Show Blade who's boss!
