**[00:04] ---**
Fujiko, how are you?
**[00:06] ---**
Brother, I'm doing well!
**[00:11] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[00:15] ---**
The shelf farthest back, in the Knight
Equipment Research Facility...
**[00:18] ---**
Once you have all three, play the sound.
**[00:38] ---**
I finished what I needed to do.
**[00:42] ---**
Oh, man...
**[00:45] ---**
You erased your memories, huh?
**[00:48] ---**
I only helped you out because you
told me you wanted to destroy it,
**[00:52] ---**
but you were really after...
**[02:30] ---**
Is Solitary Fun?
**[02:39] ---**
Okay! Everyone, pay attention!
**[02:42] ---**
I want everyone to form groups of two.
**[02:45] ---**
I don't know who to partner with.
**[02:46] ---**
How about we group up?
**[02:47] ---**
No. I don't think I can perform
well enough for you.
**[02:51] ---**
Come on. Please, Hiroshi?
**[02:52] ---**
I'm glad you picked me, but...
**[02:53] ---**
Sai Akuto...
**[02:55] ---**
Fujiko, what's wrong?
**[02:59] ---**
Nothing at all.
**[03:01] ---**
Let's go.
**[03:03] ---**
Fujiko!
**[03:06] ---**
I need to get him to work
for me, at all costs.
**[03:11] ---**
Now that I think about it,
is Keena absent today, too?
**[03:13] ---**
Oh, she's pretty good when
it comes to studying,
**[03:17] ---**
but she's completely terrible at magick.
**[03:19] ---**
She can't do anything but fly.
**[03:21] ---**
I guess no one knows she
can turn invisible...
**[03:24] ---**
She usually never comes to
magick classes, like this one.
**[03:28] ---**
She doesn't have any friends.
**[03:29] ---**
She's the type of girl that sits there,
reading books and staring into space.
**[03:32] ---**
Oh, I see what's going on!
You're trying to get in her panties next!
**[03:35] ---**
I haven't gotten in anyone's
panties yet, and I'm not trying.
**[03:43] ---**
What are you just standing there for?
**[03:46] ---**
Hurry up and get ready.
**[03:47] ---**
Huh?
**[03:48] ---**
I told you to get ready.
**[03:54] ---**
Thank you!
**[03:57] ---**
You can tell he's a demon lord
just by looking at him.
**[03:58] ---**
He has her completely wrapped
around his finger.
**[04:03] ---**
This is the first time you've done this,
**[04:05] ---**
so I was asked to partner with you.
**[04:07] ---**
Don't you *want* to be his first?
**[04:11] ---**
This lesson will teach you the basics
of fine control over your mana.
**[04:15] ---**
If you stop paying attention
**[04:17] ---**
and don't take it seriously,
you can hurt your partner accidentally.
**[04:19] ---**
So be careful.
**[04:21] ---**
Got it. I wouldn't hurt you, anyway.
**[04:26] ---**
H-Hurry up and throw it back. Slowly, okay?
**[04:31] ---**
I just have to do what you did, right?
**[04:48] ---**
Shit...
**[04:50] ---**
I did it again...
**[05:01] ---**
Is Hattori all right?
**[05:03] ---**
She just fainted from shock.
She's not burned.
**[05:06] ---**
That's good to hear.
**[05:08] ---**
You really are ridiculously strong.
**[05:10] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[05:11] ---**
You'll need to do considerable mental discipline
training to control that power of yours.
**[05:16] ---**
Oh, I have a good idea!
**[05:17] ---**
How about you train in the
Mental Self-Discipline Chamber?
**[05:20] ---**
What? You mean *the* Constant Magick Academy
Mental Self-Discipline Chamber?!
**[05:24] ---**
Th-That's the place a bunch of people entered
but came out dead, a long time ago-
**[05:29] ---**
It's just a place you go for Zen meditation,
**[05:31] ---**
not anything to worry about.
**[05:36] ---**
Oh, and if you happen to die-
**[05:38] ---**
I'm not going!
**[05:41] ---**
The teacher said I'd need a canteen
and a waterproof bag...
**[05:45] ---**
I get the canteen, but why
a waterproof bag?
**[05:49] ---**
As an observer, I shall accompany you.
**[05:54] ---**
You haven't even been around lately.
**[05:56] ---**
I have it set up so I can watch you,
even when we're apart.
**[05:59] ---**
And as long as we're on school grounds,
I can reach you in an instant.
**[06:03] ---**
Um, what are those?
**[06:05] ---**
A well-known snack from the
imperial capital, figure bakes.
**[06:09] ---**
Want some?
**[06:10] ---**
No, it isn't that...
**[06:12] ---**
Liladan can eat food, too?
**[06:14] ---**
We can internally convert food into energy.
**[06:16] ---**
It's rather insignificant, compared to the requirements,
so it isn't really necessary.
**[06:20] ---**
So you don't need it?
**[06:21] ---**
They taste good.
**[06:23] ---**
I see.
**[06:24] ---**
Anyway, let's go.
**[06:25] ---**
Didn't you just say you didn't
have to be with me?
**[06:28] ---**
This looks fun.
**[06:30] ---**
I see.
**[06:32] ---**
Death Death Death Death Death
**[06:34] ---**
Fujiko, why the serious look?
**[06:38] ---**
Sai Akuto was ordered to the
Mental Self-Discipline Chamber.
**[06:42] ---**
The Mental Self-Discipline Chamber?
Oh, yeah. I remember now.
**[06:46] ---**
I've never been there, but...
**[06:47] ---**
A chamber that, once closed,
**[06:49] ---**
can't be opened from the
inside for twelve hours...
**[06:52] ---**
I'm thinking about seeing if
I can formulate a fun plan.
**[06:56] ---**
You've grown so evil...
**[06:59] ---**
You used to be so-
**[07:00] ---**
Quiet!
**[07:03] ---**
This is all because you...
**[07:06] ---**
When your brother was surveying
the school ruins,
**[07:10] ---**
he died, after finding something.
**[07:12] ---**
Something? What was it?
**[07:15] ---**
In order to figure that out,
**[07:17] ---**
the government used undead magick
on the corpse and interrogated him.
**[07:21] ---**
But he didn't remember anything.
**[07:23] ---**
Undead magick?
**[07:25] ---**
It seems he got scared, ran away,
and then got himself killed.
**[07:30] ---**
That's what they decided happened.
**[07:33] ---**
He's tainted the Etou family name.
**[07:41] ---**
What is it?
**[07:42] ---**
No...
**[07:43] ---**
It's nothing.
**[07:56] ---**
So this is it?
**[07:59] ---**
Once you enter, the door
will lock for twelve hours.
**[08:03] ---**
Please secure a communication method, for
any emergencies, and enter at your own risk.
**[08:04] ---**
If anything happens, I'll contact you
via the student handbook.
**[08:07] ---**
Thanks.
**[08:12] ---**
I see. So I'm supposed to
discipline myself by reading this.
**[08:15] ---**
What did you mean by "thanks"?
**[08:17] ---**
I meant that I'd call you if I needed help-
**[08:19] ---**
Huh?!
**[08:20] ---**
What good will come of your
being in here with me?
**[08:22] ---**
I said I'd be attending, as your observer.
**[08:29] ---**
There isn't much room in here.
**[08:30] ---**
Seems that way.
**[08:31] ---**
I was kind of trying to complain...
**[08:38] ---**
C-Could you move away a bit?
**[08:41] ---**
I'm helping you.
**[08:43] ---**
You can't train yourself mentally
unless you can concentrate,
**[08:46] ---**
no matter the circumstances.
**[08:48] ---**
The hell?
**[08:52] ---**
I-I don't need the help.
**[09:08] ---**
What are you trying to pull?!
**[09:10] ---**
I heard you were going to
be alone for a while,
**[09:13] ---**
so I thought you might need
a lunch or something...
**[09:15] ---**
But it doesn't mean you had to
come with me, alone, right?
**[09:17] ---**
The door just closed on its own!
**[09:25] ---**
I'll use these bullets with
illusion magick in them.
**[09:32] ---**
I'll shoot them into the building.
**[09:33] ---**
When his mind's been
sufficiently disturbed, I'll appear...
**[09:37] ---**
and make him swear fealty.
**[09:39] ---**
This is the perfect situation for it,
now that he's meditating.
**[09:47] ---**
It's pretty cramped in here.
**[09:49] ---**
Don't say that so nonchalantly.
**[09:51] ---**
We have to stay in here for twelve hours.
**[09:54] ---**
It'll be okay!
**[09:55] ---**
We have lunch, too!
**[09:57] ---**
That's not really the issue...
**[10:05] ---**
Huh...
**[10:08] ---**
What's this?
**[10:10] ---**
Seems like old parchment.
**[10:12] ---**
It looks like some sort of map.
**[10:14] ---**
Oh, this is a school map!
**[10:16] ---**
The treasure will reveal itself,
once the three keys are collected.
**[10:22] ---**
But let it be known, death awaits
those who are not worthy.
**[10:26] ---**
It's a treasure map, Acchan!
**[10:28] ---**
Looks like it.
**[10:29] ---**
I'm sure some pirates spent their whole lives
collecting treasure and then hid it!
**[10:32] ---**
We're on land here.
**[10:33] ---**
There's something enticing
about treasure maps!
**[10:36] ---**
The adventurer travels about,
defeating the monsters who protect the keys!
**[10:40] ---**
No, he doesn't kill them! If he kills them,
he'll lose the ability to get the treasure!
**[10:43] ---**
Whatever.
**[10:45] ---**
Anyway, I'm going to start
training, so be quiet.
**[10:51] ---**
Hey, Acchan...
**[10:53] ---**
If you're asking about food,
I don't need any.
**[10:55] ---**
Hey...
**[10:58] ---**
What's wrong?
**[11:02] ---**
I... I gotta pee!
**[11:07] ---**
Oh, I see! That's why I needed
the waterproof bag...
**[11:11] ---**
I can't use that! It's way too embarrassing!
**[11:13] ---**
It's better than wetting yourself!
I'll face the other direction.
**[11:16] ---**
No!
**[11:17] ---**
I'm in the same boat.
**[11:18] ---**
I'll have to do the same thing eventually.
**[11:20] ---**
I don't want to see you doing it, either!
**[11:22] ---**
I didn't ask you to look!
**[11:27] ---**
I can internally convert it into energy.
**[11:30] ---**
Not that it'd be substantial.
**[11:32] ---**
Internally...
**[11:34] ---**
Want me to drink it?
**[11:39] ---**
Prepare yourself.
**[11:43] ---**
No!
**[11:46] ---**
He's already having problems
keeping it together?
**[11:49] ---**
Let me out!
**[11:50] ---**
Let me out!
**[11:52] ---**
Let me out!
**[11:52] ---**
I was just kidding. Besides,
it wouldn't taste good.
**[11:55] ---**
Why do you even know that?!
**[11:56] ---**
No, this isn't the time.
**[12:01] ---**
I have no choice but to cancel the training
for now, and call for help.
**[12:04] ---**
How about having the person
outside help us?
**[12:07] ---**
Huh?
**[12:09] ---**
I'm detecting mana from beyond the door.
**[12:11] ---**
If you knew that, you should have
said something earlier!
**[12:14] ---**
I wonder who's there...
**[12:16] ---**
I-I can't hold it anymore!
**[12:25] ---**
I didn't even have to use magick.
**[12:29] ---**
If I appear to him like a goddess...
**[12:34] ---**
There's nothing to fear!
**[12:37] ---**
I'm here to-
**[12:40] ---**
I can't hold it anymore!
**[12:42] ---**
E-Etou?
**[12:44] ---**
What are you all doing?
**[12:47] ---**
A lot happened...
**[12:50] ---**
What is this?
**[12:53] ---**
We just happened to find it inside.
**[12:55] ---**
It can't be...
**[12:59] ---**
I'll be taking this.
**[13:02] ---**
But...
**[13:06] ---**
I guess she's taking that
treasure map seriously.
**[13:11] ---**
That jerk.
**[13:12] ---**
That jerk.
**[13:13] ---**
That jerk.
***SIGN*** Secure Line
**[13:30] ---**
Encrypted text?
**[13:32] ---**
A member of the Teruya family
has started moving.
**[13:35] ---**
I would like to hold a meeting
at the usual location.
**[13:41] ---**
Don't play dumb!
**[13:43] ---**
I know this is your handwriting!
**[13:47] ---**
I'm sorry. I really don't remember.
**[14:01] ---**
I don't understand.
**[14:03] ---**
The undead cannot lie.
What's going on?
**[14:09] ---**
Good day.
**[14:10] ---**
Good day.
**[14:12] ---**
Sucks that you couldn't make
the demon lord your underling.
**[14:15] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[14:18] ---**
Just keep trying to ensure no one
else finds out, Etou Fujiko.
**[14:22] ---**
You're not a student here, are you?
**[14:25] ---**
No worries. I've received
permission to enter the school.
**[14:29] ---**
Excuse me.
**[14:32] ---**
Is that real?
**[14:32] ---**
Look at that.
**[14:34] ---**
That's pretty cool!
**[14:37] ---**
Excuse me.
**[14:45] ---**
It's not here!
**[14:46] ---**
I'm sure I left it here!
**[14:48] ---**
I bet it was that demon lord!
**[14:50] ---**
Wasn't Etou kind of weird yesterday?
**[14:53] ---**
Weird?
**[14:55] ---**
When she looked at the map.
**[14:56] ---**
You don't think she believes
it's real, do you?
**[14:59] ---**
I wonder.
**[15:00] ---**
I don't really care about
any treasure, but...
**[15:07] ---**
It's the demon lord!
**[15:11] ---**
This is the map from yesterday... Why?
**[15:13] ---**
Looks like copies of some sort.
**[15:16] ---**
Did Etou do this?
**[15:18] ---**
Why would she do this?
**[15:19] ---**
This is your doing, is it not?
**[15:27] ---**
They're posted all over the place!
**[15:29] ---**
It's a place that was abandoned
during the last Great War.
**[15:34] ---**
Guga.
**[15:37] ---**
I can't believe you'd steal
the map from my room!
**[15:40] ---**
I know what you're up to!
**[15:41] ---**
You're trying to rile up the student body
by posting the map all over school!
**[15:46] ---**
You really are a demon lord!
**[15:47] ---**
You're not saying that too, are you?!
**[15:49] ---**
I've determined the person responsible.
**[16:00] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[16:03] ---**
I'm giving information to the adventurers who
want to try their luck at the pirate's treasure!
**[16:07] ---**
They can all vie for the treasure
and challenge the labyrinth!
**[16:09] ---**
You can't just do that!
**[16:10] ---**
From the look of things,
it's gotten around quite a bit.
**[16:15] ---**
Hattori's absent again, and Keena
will skip class just like that.
**[16:20] ---**
I heard that the class rep is out
for family reasons.
**[16:23] ---**
Family reasons? It wasn't my fault?
**[16:25] ---**
Thank god.
**[16:27] ---**
So you're not going to skip?
**[16:29] ---**
I should be here sometimes.
**[16:30] ---**
But why do you have an apple crate?
**[16:31] ---**
It's a mandarin orange box.
**[16:33] ---**
This is bad!
**[16:33] ---**
That's not what I meant...
**[16:34] ---**
Move away!
**[16:35] ---**
Move aside!
**[16:42] ---**
What happened?
**[16:43] ---**
We were attacked by a monster...
**[16:50] ---**
Eighteen people were injured
in this incident alone.
**[16:53] ---**
People keep getting hurt.
**[16:54] ---**
Putting aside the validity
of the treasure map,
**[16:57] ---**
who would have expected
people to get hurt?
**[16:59] ---**
Maybe they got done in by a demonic dog?
**[17:01] ---**
The student council can no longer
turn a blind eye to this.
**[17:05] ---**
That makes sense.
**[17:06] ---**
Uh, where are the other members?
**[17:09] ---**
At the moment, they're a bit busy.
**[17:11] ---**
Anyway, I'd like you to announce
to the student body
**[17:14] ---**
that they're banned from searching
for the treasure.
**[17:18] ---**
You want me to?
**[17:19] ---**
I don't want to appear to be
using fear-based politics,
**[17:21] ---**
but the disciplinary committee has the
authority to dictate punishments.
**[17:25] ---**
Besides, in a way, you're better
for the job than I am.
**[17:29] ---**
I see...
**[17:30] ---**
If you do this, I'll forget your
involvement in the matter.
***SIGN*** Emergency Meeting
**[17:35] ---**
Thank you all for coming to
the emergency summons.
**[17:39] ---**
Anyway, the disciplinary committee
has an announcement.
**[17:45] ---**
I'm the disciplinary committee
representative, Sai Akuto.
**[17:47] ---**
I believe all of you already know this,
**[17:50] ---**
but by the authority of the
disciplinary committee,
**[17:51] ---**
I have hereby banned
any treasure search.
**[17:53] ---**
I'd like to remind everyone that anyone who
disobeys will face disciplinary action.
**[17:56] ---**
That's all.
**[17:56] ---**
Don't play dumb!
**[17:58] ---**
I know Soga Keena,
**[17:59] ---**
the girl that's been posting the maps,
has been going in and out of your room!
**[18:04] ---**
The demon lord got his hands
on Soga, in addition to Hattori!
**[18:07] ---**
You're the one who
made the map!
**[18:10] ---**
Oh, I get it!
**[18:11] ---**
This must be a game that
the demon lord created!
**[18:14] ---**
He hid the treasure and put monsters everywhere,
and he'll make those who make it through his underlings!
**[18:18] ---**
What was that?
**[18:19] ---**
Hiroshi, you...
**[18:21] ---**
You planned all this out, and now you're
banning it! What's up with that?
**[18:24] ---**
Wait! That wasn't what happened!
**[18:27] ---**
Anyway, the reason behind the attacks
hasn't yet been discovered,
**[18:30] ---**
but it's clear that the locations
indicated by the map are dangerous!
**[18:33] ---**
Then why don't you go there!
**[18:35] ---**

**[18:45] ---**

***SIGN*** This Doesn't Look Good!
**[18:51] ---**
Don't talk!
**[18:53] ---**
I can't help myself...
**[18:54] ---**
Sai Akuto, looking at you up close,
you're actually pretty cute.
**[18:58] ---**
Thanks...
**[19:01] ---**
What are you trying to do?
**[19:02] ---**
If it's dangerous, then don't go.
**[19:04] ---**
But if you're saying you didn't do it,
**[19:06] ---**
then shouldn't you be the
one who sees if it's real?
**[19:09] ---**
Me?
**[19:11] ---**
Yeah!
**[19:12] ---**
Prove it's not your trap!
**[19:14] ---**
You're the only one who
has to go and get hurt!
**[19:17] ---**
Fine.
**[19:18] ---**
But I forbid anyone else from approaching
the places marked on the map!
**[19:23] ---**
Darn.
**[19:28] ---**
And that's why you're Sai Akuto.
**[19:33] ---**
Who are you?
**[19:35] ---**
Teruya Eiko. Originally, I was just
going to tease you a bit,
**[19:39] ---**
but it looks like we'll be seeing
each other for a while.
**[19:43] ---**
Teruya Eiko... Who are you?
**[19:48] ---**
All you have to do is go in and leave.
**[19:51] ---**
We can invent anything to cover it up.
**[19:53] ---**
But if I'm going in, shouldn't I get rid of the
monsters or demonic dogs or whatever?
**[19:58] ---**
Oh, it's fine. We just have to
look like we're acting.
**[20:01] ---**
Besides, I'm not exactly all that
fond of your going, anyway.
**[20:05] ---**
So, take care of the rest for me.
**[20:08] ---**
What are you thinking about?
**[20:11] ---**
The student council president's attitude.
**[20:12] ---**
It seems like she's hiding something.
**[20:15] ---**
It's pretty strange to say
**[20:17] ---**
you don't need to do anything
about people getting hurt.
***SIGN*** Etou Fujiko
**[20:22] ---**
Etou?
**[20:24] ---**
You're going to search for
the treasure, right?
**[20:26] ---**
This is an incantation gun.
**[20:28] ---**
It shoots magickal bullets.
**[20:31] ---**
You can fight, even knowing that
you can't control your mana well.
**[20:35] ---**
Thank you.
**[20:37] ---**
But you're the type of person
who makes choices
**[20:41] ---**
after calculating personal interest.
**[20:42] ---**
Why help me without reason-
**[20:43] ---**
You know...
**[20:43] ---**
Never mind!
**[20:45] ---**
Anyway, all you have to
do is find the treasure!
**[20:49] ---**
Understood. Then I'll borrow it.
**[20:55] ---**
Just in case, I gathered enough
camping gear to last a week.
**[20:59] ---**
Thank you. Anyway, let's hurry.
**[21:01] ---**
I hate attracting attention-
**[21:04] ---**
Whose attention don't
you want to attract?
**[21:07] ---**
You're...
**[21:07] ---**
You promised you'd take
me along, didn't you?
**[21:10] ---**
I don't remember promising that.
**[21:12] ---**
I'd accompany you, even if you didn't.
**[21:14] ---**
You know, once I get attached
to something, I can't leave it alone.
**[21:17] ---**
Let go of the boss!
**[21:20] ---**
I told you to stop holding on to him!
**[21:22] ---**
I can do what I want.
**[21:23] ---**
The boss is mine!
**[21:25] ---**
I didn't know you swung that way...
**[21:27] ---**
I'm moved by who he is as a man!
**[21:30] ---**
Doesn't sound much different
from what I said.
**[21:33] ---**
That's not true!
**[21:42] ---**
This is the first point marked on the map.
**[21:45] ---**
Looks like a crypt.
**[21:47] ---**
Let me see that.
**[21:53] ---**
It says that it's for Yamato Bouichirou.
**[21:57] ---**
Yamato Bouichirou? Who's that?
