[00:02] ORGAN
    This is truly relaxing.
[00:04] ORGAN
    I haven't felt this way in centuries.
[00:08] ORGAN
    Does the Demon Lord get to
    enjoy this on a daily basis?
[00:14] ORGAN
    It's so strange.
[00:16] ORGAN
    When he's around, I feel
    so safe for some reason.
[00:20] ORGAN
    Perhaps he's akin to what a
    father is supposed to be like?
[00:25] ORGAN
    The Demon Lord?
[00:32] ORGAN
    He always seems to enjoy drinking this.
[00:36] ORGAN
    If only I could taste it...
[00:37] KUNAI
    Coffee milk is good, too.
[00:40] ORGAN
    Eek!
[00:41] KUNAI
    Fruity milk is also not a bad choice,
[00:43] KUNAI
    but I keep going back to
    just regular old milk.
[00:47] ORGAN
    Since when have you been here?!
[00:49] KUNAI
    I just got back and took a dip.
[00:52] KUNAI
    I want you to know how good
    milk tastes after a hot bath.
[00:56] KUNAI
    I'll have my aide fix up your
    taste buds when we go back to Rabby.
[01:00] ORGAN
    I don't have any particular
    issues without taste buds.
[01:04] ORGAN
    Having them would only make it painful
    when I'm forced to eat something awful.
[01:08] ORGAN
    Anyway, what's with that aide of yours?
[01:11] ORGAN
    She whisked Mink away
    as soon as she returned.
[01:13] KUNAI
    Don't worry about it.
[01:15] KUNAI
    She said something about
    slave trading and torture...
[01:19] KUNAI
    Does that ring any bells?
[01:21] ORGAN
    She's likely talking about the slave markets.
[01:24] ORGAN
    Awful places.
[01:25] KUNAI
    You know a lot about them?
[01:27] ORGAN
    I do. After all, they're
    run by none other than...
[01:30] ORGAN
    my father, archfiend Belphegor.

    Belphegor runs three slave markets in total.

[03:13] KUNAI
    Three in the same region?
    Are they different somehow?
[03:16] ORGAN
    First is the bottom of the barrel.
[03:18] ORGAN
    It's a bad environment,
SIGN    Slave Market 1
[03:21] ORGAN
    and the slaves are beaten, killed,
    or turned into toys for fun.
[03:25] ORGAN
    The customer base consists of scum like
    orcs, ogres, and low-level vampires.
[03:29] KUNAI
    Why abuse the slaves?
[03:31] KUNAI
    If you injure them, their value goes down.
[03:33] KUNAI
    And if they die, you're just
    losing out on a bunch of money.
[03:37] ORGAN
    For selection.
[03:38] ORGAN
    Only those that survive the horrors of
    the first market and don't go insane
SIGN    Slave Market 1
[03:43] ORGAN
    are sent to the second.
SIGN    Slave Market 2
[03:46] KUNAI
    An endurance test, huh?
[03:48] ORGAN
    In the second, they're given a clean
    environment, food, and a proper place to sleep.
[03:53] ORGAN
    And they're put through slave
    training and brainwashing.
[03:56] KUNAI
    So, they apply the finishing touches there.
SIGN    Slave Market 2
[03:59] ORGAN
    The third is the actual slave market.

[04:04] ORGAN
    The pretty, tough, and refined are the best
    slaves and are sold there for high prices.
[04:08] KUNAI
    That's an elaborate setup.
[04:11] ORGAN
    Other archfiends don't expend
    any effort on humans.
[04:15] ORGAN
    But Belphegor is different.
[04:18] ORGAN
    He is lazy, lust-driven, and loves
    taking the scenic route above all else.
[04:23] ORGAN
    That "scenic route" produces
    high-quality slaves,
[04:26] ORGAN
    and it gave him a monopoly in
    the Demon Lands's slave industry.
[04:30] KUNAI
    So he put together a solid quality
    control and marketing strategy.
[04:34] KUNAI
    He must be a shrewd businessman.
[04:37] ORGAN
    I suppose.
[04:38] ORGAN
    All his experimenting on me was him
    taking that "scenic route," too.
[04:42] AKIRA
    Here comes another massive landmine!
[04:46] ORGAN
    So, where did that Akane girl run off to?
[04:50] KUNAI
    The first.

[04:52] ORGAN
    But the second is closest to the border.
[04:54] KUNAI
    If the first has the worst environment,
    that's where she'll go.

[04:59] KUNAI
    It's the place that
    requires the most urgency.
[05:02] KUNAI
    It'll serve as a decent distraction
    according to our original plan.
[05:06] KUNAI
    We'll use the monkeys to
    make an even bigger scene.
[05:09] ORGAN
    The beast general's tribe? How
    will you get them to play along?
[05:11] KUNAI
    I've already taken their precious Power Pole
    and put a Golden Headband on the chief.
[05:18] ORGAN
    That battle I thought was
    pointless was for this?
[05:21] ORGAN
    And what will we do?
[05:23] KUNAI
    Go through the front gate to see your father.
[05:27] ORGAN
    Just the two of us?
[05:29] KUNAI
    Message.
[05:32] KUNAI
    I got us an appointment. Let's go.
[05:36] ORGAN
    Put me down! I am not a child!
[05:39] KUNAI
    Who's going to believe you're 400 years old?
[05:42] KUNAI
    You don't look all that different from Aku.
[05:45] ORGAN
    Who is that? Yet another woman?
[05:48] KUNAI
    What's with the "yet another" bit?
[05:50] ORGAN
    Anyway, don't grab me without permission!
[05:53] KUNAI
    Not like you lose anything.
    Don't let it bother you.
[05:56] ORGAN
    I do... I lose a lot!
[05:58] ORGAN
    Anyway, tell me first before you touch me.
[06:02] KUNAI
    I'm not some cat wearing
    a construction helmet.
[06:05] KUNAI
    I'm not going to point and
    check before doing everything.
[06:07] MONKEYMAGIC
    You make a fuss in this divine place?
[06:10] MONKEYMAGIC
    You are as tactless as ever, human.
[06:13] KUNAI
    Sorry for summoning you out of the blue.
[06:15] KUNAI
    I've come to make a request of you.
[06:18] MONKEYMAGIC
    An inferior human wants
    help from us forest sages?
[06:21] KUNAI
    Bind.
[06:23] MONKEYMAGIC
    Ow, ow, ow, ow!
[06:25] KUNAI
    I am deeply impressed by your desire
    to test the endurance of your skull,
[06:31] KUNAI
    but I'd prefer it if you
    heard me out quietly tonight.
[06:34] MONKEYMAGIC
    Fine, I will!
[06:36] MONKEYMAGIC
    So please, stop this!
[06:38] KUNAI
    Stop.
[06:41] BALDERSON
    Are you okay, boss?
[06:44] KUNAI
    My request is this: I want you to
    attack Belphegor's slave market.
[06:49] MONKEYMAGIC
    Wha?!
[06:51] BALDERSON
    Dark boss, please don't give the
    chief complicated instructions.
[06:55] KUNAI
    Was that really complicated?
[06:58] BALDERSON
    That girl there... Isn't she
    Belphegor's dear, only daughter?
[07:04] BALDERSON
    What are you plotting?
[07:07] KUNAI
    Hey, parents and children fight all the time.
[07:11] KUNAI
    Don't think too much. Just go wild.
[07:14] BALDERSON
    You make it sound so easy.
[07:16] BALDERSON
    Besides, we're forbidden from setting foot
    in the lands past the divine territory.
[07:20] PRIESTESS
    Monkeymen, sages of the forest.
[07:23] MONKEYMAGIC
    Th-That voice!
[07:25] BALDERSON
    The holy priestess!
[07:26] PRIESTESS
    I ask this of you as well...
[07:29] PRIESTESS
    Could you please help this human?
[07:32] MONKEYMAGIC
    The holy priestess is making
    a personal request to us!
[07:36] PRIESTESS
    I owe that human a debt.
[07:39] PRIESTESS
    I will talk to Tatsu myself.
[07:42] BALDERSON
    Boss, it looks like we've got ourselves
    our first big job in a while!
[07:46] MONKEYMAGIC
    We can break some demon
    skulls fair and square!
[07:51] MONKEYMAGIC
    Give back my pole.
[07:53] MONKEYMAGIC
    I don't like taking orders from a human,
[07:55] MONKEYMAGIC
    but it's different with the
    holy priestess asking.
[07:58] MONKEYMAGIC
    I'll go along with your plan.
[08:00] KUNAI
    I'm glad to have your understanding.
[08:05] KUNAI
    Go as wild as you can.
[08:08] KUNAI
    But don't kill any humans.
[08:10] MONKEYMAGIC
    Got it.
[08:12] KUNAI
    Oh, and take this with you.
[08:14] KUNAI
    It'll play a big role this time, in a way.
[08:17] MONKEYMAGIC
    What is this?
[08:19] KUNAI
    No need to think about it for now.
[08:21] KUNAI
    I'll give you instructions later.
[08:23] KUNAI
    Hey, holy priestess or whatever!
[08:25] KUNAI
    I'm not done with you yet.
[08:28] KUNAI
    Once this is all over, you will
    see me and answer my questions.
[08:32] KUNAI
    Don't think you can escape it.
[08:34] PRIESTESS
    You're always so scary.
[08:37] PRIESTESS
    As is your face.
[08:40] KUNAI
    I told you, don't judge a book by its cover!
[08:43] PRIESTESS
    My children like you, too. They have
    taken to calling you evil-faced.
[08:49] KUNAI
    Uh, that sounds more like they hate me...
[08:55] ORGAN
    What is this, a sightseeing trip?
[08:58] ORGAN
    We're not going there to have fun, you know?
[09:01] ORGAN
    What's wrong? Are we not going?
[09:04] KUNAI
    Uh, I'm sorry, but I can't Omnitravel
    to places I've never been to before.
[09:09] KUNAI
    We'll have to run after them,
    is what I'm saying.
[09:13] ORGAN
    What?!
[09:14] ORGAN
    You should've told me sooner!
[09:16] ORGAN
    Hmph!
[09:18] KUNAI
    Now...
[09:20] KUNAI
    Let's go see what the Demon Lands are like.
[09:33] PRIESTESS
    What a loud bunch.
[09:37] PRIESTESS
    Was that all right with you...
[09:39] PRIESTESS
    Tatsu?
[09:40] TATSU
    My opinion matters not.
[09:43] TATSU
    I need only carry out Mother's will.
[09:46] PRIESTESS
    Didn't she tell you to ignore him?
[09:50] PRIESTESS
    Wouldn't my request to the
    Monkeymen go against that order?
[09:57] PRIESTESS
    Such a scary look.
[09:59] PRIESTESS
    I don't think I've ever seen
    you get so emotional before.
[10:04] TATSU
    Great blessings, and great hatred.
[10:08] PRIESTESS
    Oh?
[10:10] TATSU
    He's not meant to exist in this world.
[10:14] PRIESTESS
    So, you'll kill him?
[10:15] TATSU
    I could do that at any time.
[10:17] TATSU
    All I want to know is
    what Mother is thinking.
[10:25] PRIESTESS
    Sheesh. She has one troublesome daughter.
[10:31] PRIESTESS
    Well, problem children tend to be more dear.
[10:38] PRIESTESS
    It looks like there will be a storm tonight.
[10:56] CAKE
    Are you all right, Mister Hammer?
[10:59] HAMMER
    Y-Yeah.
[11:00] CAKE
    Please stay strong. If you do, then surely...
[11:04] CAKE
    Oh, sorry. Who am I to talk down to you, huh?
[11:10] HAMMER
    Nah, thank you for looking out for me.
[11:17] CAKE
    Here, mister.
[11:21] HAMMER
    Huh?
[11:22] CAKE
    Shh, it's a secret.
[11:25] HAMMER
    H-How'd you get this?
[11:28] CAKE
    Someone shared them with me.
[11:30] CAKE
    Hide and eat it so that
    nobody else finds out.
[11:34] HAMMER
    Right.
[11:35] CAKE
    See you.
[11:37] HAMMER
    Ah...
[11:39] HAMMER
    I must live on, for her sake as well.
[11:45] CAKE
    Damn it!
[11:46] CAKE
    Only three were good enough
    to send to the second?
[11:50] CAKE
    If this keeps up, they'll get rid of me soon!
[11:53] CAKE
    I need to do something before
    that bastard Kale comes back.
[11:56] CAKE
    Maybe I'll use his name
    to get some food from the second.
[12:03] CAKE
    Pardon me...
[12:05] CAKE
    Tch. Nobody here when I need them?
[12:08] CAKE
    They're good for nothing.
[12:10] SKEWER
    And whom might you be referring to?
[12:22] CAKE
    I apologize!
[12:24] CAKE
    I was simply complaining
    about one of the slaves!
[12:26] CAKE
    They were not good enough!
[12:29] SKEWER
    That's not ideal. It's your
    job to discipline them, then.
[12:34] CAKE
    It won't happen again!
[12:35] CAKE
    Lord Kale gave me instructions
    regarding that.
[12:39] CAKE
    May I please have a carriage to go
    to the second slave market?
[12:42] SKEWER
    I can scarcely understand why Lord Belphegor
    left that boor in charge of this place.
[12:50] SKEWER
    Of course, he loves his
    detours and futile pursuits.
[12:54] SKEWER
    Perhaps he saw himself in Kale.
[12:58] SKEWER
    Very well. Go to Second and fulfill your duty.
[13:02] CAKE
    As you wish, sir.
[13:05] CAKE
    Yes! I got this monster's approval!
[13:11] CAKE
    I will definitely escape this place.
[13:15] CAKE
    Parma Kingdom only lost because that
    stupid father of mine sent Leon away.
[13:21] CAKE
    If I can regroup with him,
[13:23] CAKE
    we can get revenge on the
    New Queendom of Xenovia.
[13:26] CAKE
    I will tear Beatrice and Kongming to shreds!
[13:35] SKEWER
    I haven't come here in a while.
[13:39] SKEWER
    Hmm, that's not ideal.
[13:42] SKEWER
    That old gentleman seems
    to have injured his leg.
[13:45] OLDMAN
    I-I'm fine.
[13:47] SKEWER
    You mustn't force yourself, sir.
[13:51] OLDMAN
    P-Please wait! I can still...
[14:00] SKEWER
    You aren't performing the
    necessary quality checks.
[14:04] GOBLINA
    W-We're terribly sorry.
[14:06] SKEWER
    A nose that can't detect rotting
    is worth nothing at all!
[14:12] SKEWER
    What else do we have that is worthless?
[14:14] GOBLINB
    Th-This one no good! Dispose!
[14:16] SLAVEMAN
    Eek! I'm not injured or anything!
[14:18] SLAVEWOMAN
    Please spare me! If I die,
    who'll look after this child?
[14:21] GOBLINC
    Quiet! Dispose!
[14:22] AKANE
    Wa-cha!
[14:28] AKANE
    Ta-dah! Akane has arrived!
[14:32] AKANE
    This will be my first battle here.
    Gotta make it memorable, bling.
[14:37] AKANE
    I'll blow you all away,
[14:38] AKANE
    and start the legend of the Great Empire!
[14:42] AKANE
    You are already dead, see.
[14:47] AKANE
    It seems like you were killing
    lots of people for fun,
[14:52] AKANE
    so I think I'll have fun killing you, too.
[14:55] AKANE
    That makes it even, right?
[14:58] SKEWER
    Oh?
[14:59] MINK
    Sacred downpour!
[15:00] MINK
    Holy Rain!
[15:08] MINK
    I, the dark who hunts the
    dark, will be your opponent!
[15:11] AKANE
    Hey, don't barge into my show!
[15:15] AKANE
    Well... I guess it's okay if it's Miss Edgelord.
[15:21] AKANE
    Yikes! Lots of skeletons!
[15:25] AKANE
    Rest in pieces.
[15:26] MINK
    Hey! How are we going to
    do this without Organ?
[15:29] AKANE
    For starters, laughter should do the trick.
[15:32] MINK
    This isn't funny!
[15:38] MINK
    Give me the protection of the abyssal
    dark, so that I may rend all light!
[15:49] MINK
    Angelic Cross!
[15:52] MINK
    O corpses still clinging to the mortal world,
[15:54] MINK
    may you perish in brilliance!
[16:00] AKANE
    Whoo, I love this edgelord!
[16:03] AKANE
    We executing now?
[16:05] MINK
    Stop fooling around!
[16:06] MINK
    Do something about
    that monster over there!
[16:08] MINK
    Heck, you better, damn it!
[16:10] AKANE
    Wow, swearing now?
[16:12] AKANE
    You can't be in an idol
    unit with me like that.
[16:16] SKEWER
    Your cheerfulness is quite refreshing.
[16:20] SKEWER
    It's very unusual around these parts.
[16:23] AKANE
    You're the weird one, if you ask me.
[16:27] SKEWER
    Weird, you say?
[16:29] AKANE
    Why are you acting so unfazed
    when you're about to die?
[16:33] SKEWER
    I happen to be a somewhat special being.
[16:35] SKEWER
    I have been freed from the concept of death.
[16:40] SKEWER
    I would like to experience it, if I could.
[16:44] AKANE
    Whoops. You just popped a flag, like
    saying, "I'd like to know defeat."
[16:49] SKEWER
    Then let us duel, miss.
[16:53] AKANE
    Ready whenever you are.
[16:55] SKEWER
    I ask the rest of you to
    entertain our other guest.
[17:01] MINK
    Wait! Don't come this way!
[17:03] AKANE
    That won't do, Miss Edgelord!
[17:05] AKANE
    Edgelords need to laugh
    when they're in trouble!
[17:08] MINK
    Well, this isn't funny!
[17:14] SKEWER
    You're quite nimble.
[17:16] SKEWER
    Do you have a quality magic item
    that lets you control the wind?
[17:19] AKANE
    If a treasure like that
    exists, I'd love to have it.
[17:22] SKEWER
    Then you would do well to beat me.
[17:26] SKEWER
    My lord's castle has
    magic items of all kinds.
[17:30] AKANE
    Thanks for the intel.
[17:32] AKANE
    Then I'll take all of those
    treasures for myself.
[17:36] SKEWER
    Please, don't get too cocky!
[17:41] AKANE
    Yikes. That spear is kinda creepy.
[17:44] SKEWER
    I suppose it's time for me to get serious.
[17:53] AKANE
    Wow! A cloning technique!
[17:56] SKEWER
    I have four clones, aside from my real body.
[18:00] SKEWER
    Which means I was only fighting
    you at 20 percent strength so far.
[18:07] AKANE
    Well, I'm stupid, so I don't
    really understand what you're saying...
[18:11] SKEWER
    I hope you will entertain me!
[18:17] AKANE
    I should get into combat mode, too.
[18:20] AKANE
    Abradacabra, Elohim, Etz Chaim!
[18:23] AKANE
    Heed my call!
[18:34] SKEWER
    Were you born to bring me surprises?
[18:39] AKANE
    What? Your cloning technique
    was more surprising.
[18:56] AKANE
    Huh? You called another clone?
[18:59] SKEWER
    You can never be too careful.
[19:01] SKEWER
    Now I'm at 80 percent strength.
[19:04] AKANE
    Oh? So you're scared.
[19:11] AKANE
    If you can fight at 100 percent,
[19:14] AKANE
    you should hurry up and do that.
[19:19] AKANE
    Hey, you need to hold on to it tighter.
[19:25] SKEWER
    Your bravery and strength
    is worthy of praise.
[19:30] SKEWER
    Why don't we make a deal?
[19:33] AKANE
    Huh? A deal?
[19:34] SKEWER
    From what I can tell, you're
    not after my lord's life.
[19:39] SKEWER
    That means we should be able
    to work out a compromise.
[19:43] SKEWER
    Why don't you join our operation?
[19:47] AKANE
    What? No.
[19:48] HAMMER
    Eek!
[19:50] SKEWER
    From what I surmise, you pity these
    humans and want to save them, right?
[19:56] SKEWER
    You should know that I have
    the power to free them.
[20:00] AKANE
    I don't need your permission.
[20:03] AKANE
    And besides, Hakuto's the only
    one who can order me around.
[20:07] SKEWER
    Don't move.
[20:09] AKANE
    It's fine, old dude.
[20:11] AKANE
    I'll punish this bad guy for you!
[20:19] SKEWER
    To think the day has come where
    I would have to use this...
[20:28] BELPHEGOR
    Oh? The main body's going out?
[20:39] SKEWER
    You will regret making me go all-out.
[20:44] HAMMER
    I-It's all over.
[20:46] HAMMER
    I'm done for...
[20:49] HAMMER
    I wanted to live a little longer...
[20:51] AKANE
    I don't wanna hear it.
[20:53] AKANE
    Old dude, if you give up, that's
    game, set, and match right there.
[21:04] MINK
    Wh-What is that?!
[21:06] AKANE
    All done? Good job.
[21:08] MINK
    Do something!
[21:10] MINK
    You're the Demon Lord's... the
    fallen angel's aide, aren't you?!
[21:13] AKANE
    Right now, Hakuto's more
    Swindler than Lucifer.
[21:17] MINK
    What does that even mean?!
[21:20] AKANE
    Get these people out of here.
[21:23] AKANE
    I'll take that thing down.
[21:32] AKANE
    Oh?
[21:33] SKEWER
    I told you, I have been freed
    from the very concept of death!
[21:41] SKEWER
    Regeneration!
[21:46] MINK
    Hurry up!
[21:48] HAMMER
    Don't mind me. You should run away.
[21:51] HAMMER
    You still have a future.
[21:55] AKANE
    Huh? Are you trying to say you don't?
[21:58] HAMMER
    I'm just a no-name weed.
[22:01] HAMMER
    My destiny is to get trampled and die.
[22:04] AKANE
    Let me give you a useful
    piece of info.
[22:07] AKANE
    Weeds get back up no matter how
    many times they're stepped on.
[22:11] AKANE
    And they're stronger each time!
[22:21] GV
    First Skill: Pole Mastery activated.
[22:24] GV
    Second Skill: Sweep activated.
[22:29] AKANE
    I told you.
[22:30] AKANE
    You were already dead the
    moment you stood before me!
[22:34] GV
    Second Dash: Astral Kick activated.
[22:37] SKEWER
    I can never die!
[22:40] SKEWER
    My regeneration can't keep up?!
[22:42] SKEWER
    Stop!
[22:47] AKANE
    Here comes the finishing blow!
[22:50] AKANE
    Huh?
[22:54] AKANE
    Tch. And here I thought I found an
    opponent I could use a big technique on.
[23:00] AKANE
    See, old dude? Piece of cake.
[23:02] HAMMER
    R-Right...
[23:08] AKANE
    You saw, didn't you?
[23:10] HAMMER
    N-Nope! I saw nothing!
[23:14] HAMMER
    Actually, I did see, yeah...
[23:17] AKANE
    See? Good things do
    happen in life, right?
[23:21] HAMMER
    Right!
[23:26] AKANE
    Welp. Hakuto's
    making his move.
[23:29] MINK
    I thought we were
    finished! What now?!
[23:32] AKANE
    We were a step too slow.
[23:34] AKANE
    Now we'll have to see what he's up
    to and look for a chance to act.
[23:38] MINK
    You're still going?
[23:40] AKANE
    I mean, we gotta go look for the treasure!
