SIGN Endro!
[00:04] Seira
I think this is getting out of hand.
[00:08] Mei
It's a strange sensation to recall memories
of things I haven't experienced yet.
[00:14] Fai
Well, we've only remembered them.
[00:15] ---
It's not as if our strength itself has changed.
[00:18] Seira
So, what do we do, Yusha?
[00:20] Yusha
Huh?
[00:21] Yusha
Well, of course, we chase after
her to rescue Rona-chan.
[00:26] Seira
We're fighting Mao-sensei, then?
[00:28] Seira
Or rather, the Demon Lord...
[00:30] Yusha
I don't know.
[00:31] Yusha
But we can't just stay here and do nothing.
[00:34] Mei
But we don't even know where they went.
[00:39] Warrior
Looks like it's my turn, then.
[00:41] All
Sensei!
[00:42] Warrior
I heard a bit of what you were talking about.
[00:45] Mei
You're being vague again.
[00:47] Warrior
This Chaser Cartado will
lead you to Mao-sensei.
[00:52] Warrior
I use it all the time.
[00:54] Mei
That's a Cartado that gets my
heart racing for many reasons.
[00:58] Mei
Show us the path,
[01:00] Mei
Chaser!
[01:04] Mei
Looks like it's already picked her up.
[01:06] Fai
All right! Let's go get our Princess!
[01:09] Yusha
Huh?
[01:10] Yusha
Y-Yeah...
[01:12] Warrior
Yulia-san.
[01:14] Yusha
Yes?
[01:15] Warrior
In some cases, such as when you
lose your way in a dungeon,
[01:19] Warrior
going back to where you started
is one viable solution.
[01:24] Yusha
Back to where I started...
SIGN Demon Lord Castle
[01:30] Mao
At this point, I'll just scatter those
Heroes as a Demon Lord would
[01:34] Mao
and turn all of Naral Island into the
spitting image of pandemonium!
[01:39] Rona
Please stop!
[01:40] Rona
Even if you got too caught up
in the flow to turn back,
[01:43] Rona
Yusha-sama and the others
are still your students!
[01:46] Mao
You've said too much! Hmph!
[01:48] Mao
Even you must have had an inkling
that this would happen.
[01:52] Rona
What?
[01:53] Mao
Huh?!
[01:53] Mao
I mean, you know, you...
[01:56] (Flashback) Rona
They might be surprisingly close by.
[02:00] (Flashback) Rona
This is but another fate
laid forth by the world.
[02:04] Mao
You got close to me saying ominous
things like that, didn't you?
[02:12] Rona
Oh!
[02:13] Rona
That... was just me quoting
the suggestive phrase used by
[02:17] ---
the Dark Knight in chapter 6 of
volume 82 of the Tales of Heroes.
[02:22] Mao
What the heck?!
[02:25] Rona
My grandpa told me it was a phase
all young people go through!
[02:29] Rona
Besides, Sensei, the fact
that you usually hide
[02:31] ---
that huge body in such an endearing form
means you have a bit of that as well, right?
[02:36] Mao
This one's my real form!
[02:38] Mao
It's just... that other form is
more Demon-Lord-like, isn't it?
[02:42] Rona
So you were trying to look impressive?
[02:44] Mao
Shut up!
[02:45] Meigo
Well, our Demon Lord also secretly
composed poems in her secret room.
[02:51] Mao
How do you know that?!
[02:52] Meigo
Well, there's not a single thing
I don't know about you, Demon Lord.
[02:57] Mao
Oh? That's quite the boast, for a lowly golem.
[03:02] Meigo
Since I'm a golem capable of
operating semi-permanently,
[03:06] Meigo
I also know several truths
[03:08] ---
about the Heroes and Demon Lords
that the Demon Lords don't know.
[03:12] Mao
What was that?
[03:13] Rona
What did you just say?!
[03:15] Rona
As a Hero enthusiast, I can't let that go!
[03:18] Mao
I don't mind.
[03:19] Mao
Just look at how lax the current Hero is.
[03:22] Mao
I doubt it's anything relevant.
[03:24] Meigo
Then...
[03:28] Seira
I never thought we'd be coming here again.
[03:31] Yusha
We're coming for you now.
[03:45] Fai
That was a tough battle.
[03:47] Fai
Negotiating fees with
higher penguins isn't easy.
[03:51] Seira
We're finally here.
[03:53] Mei
It's the real Demon Lord's castle.
[03:55] Fai
It took a bit of time, and we ended
up paying excessive fees, though.
[04:00] Yusha
Now that we're here,
there's only one thing to do!
[04:06] Fai
Camping outside the Demon Lord's
castle is kind of thrilling.
[04:11] Mei
There's an elegance to viewing the
moon at the Demon Lord's Castle.
[04:14] Seira
You're too calm about this.
[04:16] Seira
The real Demon Lord is
right around the corner.
[04:22] Yusha
Do you think we really have
to fight the Demon Lord?
[04:27] Seira
That's what Heroes do, right?
[04:29] Yusha
You're right, but...
[04:35] Yusha
I know saying this now won't help,
[04:36] Yusha
but why did I want to be
the Hero in the first place?
[04:54] Meigo
Welcome to the Demon Lord's castle,
members of the Hero's party.
[04:59] Yusha
Meigo-chan?
[05:01] Meigo
You're still calling me by that name?
[05:04] Meigo
When I'm a loyal servant of the Demon Lord?
[05:07] Yusha
Meigo-chan, did your memories...
[05:09] Yusha
No, you're you, Meigo-chan!
[05:13] Meigo
So you're saying Mao-sama is Mao-sama,
not the Demon Lord?
[05:18] Meigo
How fitting for a Hero.
[05:20] Meigo
You truly are kind and naïve.
[05:24] Meigo
Which is all the more reason
for me tell you all.
[05:29] Meigo
Long, long ago on Naral Island...
[05:33] Meigo
a great destructive power suddenly appeared.
[05:36] Meigo
Frightened, the people
called it the Demon Lord.
[05:41] Meigo
Eventually, one who was known
as the Hero defeated that power
[05:44] ---
and restored peace to the island.
[05:47] Meigo
However, the Demon Lord revived once more,
[05:50] Meigo
and so, too, did another Hero appear.
[05:53] Meigo
That has repeated 998 times,
[05:57] Meigo
leading to the current generation
of the 999th Demon Lord.
[06:01] Seira
You know...
[06:02] Fai
This Demon Lord reviving so
much is a serious problem.
[06:05] Meigo
That's their destiny.
[06:07] All
Huh?
[06:09] Meigo
The Demon Lord's power is far too great.
[06:11] Meigo
Even if they are defeated,
they'll always regain their power and revive.
[06:17] Meigo
That's why they've been destined
to revive and be defeated
[06:22] ---
before they can regain their power.
[06:24] Mei
Hold on.
[06:25] Mei
You mean the generations of Demon Lords
aren't reviving on their own?
[06:30] Meigo
I don't know who prepared
this destiny for them.
[06:34] Meigo
All I know is that the Heroes have
spent a long time wearing down
[06:39] ---
the power of those Demon Lords
forced to revive prematurely.
[06:43] Meigo
The Heroes are a part of that destiny, too.
[06:46] Meigo
That's why they've conveniently revived at the
same time as the Demon Lord's resurrection.
[06:52] Meigo
And you are the last Hero.
[06:55] Yusha
Huh?!
[06:56] Seira
What do you mean, the last?
[06:58] Meigo
After 998 generations, that power has
been worn down, and all that remains...
[07:05] Meigo
Well, to explain it more simply...
[07:08] Meigo
Once you all win, the Demon Lord
will be eliminated for good,
[07:13] ---
never to revive again.
[07:15] Yusha
What?
[07:17] ---
You mean Mao-chan... will disappear?
[07:20] Mao
Yes, yes!
[07:22] Mao
I'm the last one, anyway!
[07:24] Mao
Since I've been reborn only to be defeated,
[07:26] ---
it's better if the Hero just destroys me quickly!
[07:30] Rona
The Heroes I long admired
[07:32] Rona
were just slaves to a destiny of
wearing down the Demon Lord's power.
[07:40] Rona
But if Yusha-sama and the others
don't follow that destiny...
[07:44] Rona
If Sensei, the Demon Lord, isn't defeated,
[07:48] Rona
the Demon Lord will regain her full power
[07:50] ---
and try to destroy Naral Island once more.
[07:54] Mao
Hmph!
[07:55] Rona
Yusha-sama...
[08:00] Mei
Jeez, my head's spinning.
[08:03] Fai
So if we defeat the final Demon Lord,
Mao-chan-sensei disappears,
[08:07] ---
and if we don't defeat her,
Naral Island will be wiped out.
[08:10] Fai
That's checkmate, isn't it?
[08:12] Seira
Why did you go out of
your way to tell us this?
[08:15] Seira
Once we know this—
[08:16] Meigo
Yes, you won't fight.
[08:19] Meigo
Not given who you are.
[08:20] Seira
I knew it! You intentionally...
[08:23] Meigo
Right now, you all would fail to
measure up to the Demon Lord.
[08:27] Meigo
However, you are the Hero,
so the improbable can happen.
[08:32] Meigo
Now, what will you do,
[08:35] Meigo
kind and naïve Hero of this generation?
[08:41] Meigo
Well, the Demon Lord is awaiting your visit.
[08:49] Seira
Wh-What do we do?
[08:51] Mei
Whether we fight Mao-sensei or not,
it's a tough decision to make.
[08:56] Fai
We really are in checkmate, aren't we?
[08:58] Seira
What do you think, Yusha?
[09:00] Seira
Yusha?
[09:03] Seira
Hey! Yusha!
[09:04] Fai
Yu-chan!
[09:04] Mei
Get a grip!
[09:08] Yusha
There was so much on my mind,
I got overwhelmed for a second...
[09:12] Mei
I guess it exceeded the limits
of your processing power.
[09:15] Seira
So, any good ideas?
[09:17] Yusha
Not at all...
[09:19] Yusha
My head just keeps spinning.
[09:21] Yusha
I'm at a total loss on what to do.
[09:25] Mei
We're all lost in life!
[09:27] Fai
Stop saying things that sound significant
but don't mean anything.
[09:34] Yusha
Chibi-chan...
[09:36] Yusha
But I really am lost.
[09:39] Yusha
What would a Hero do?
[09:42] (Flashback) Warrior
When you lose your way...
[09:45] Yusha
When you lose your way...
[09:52] Mao
They're late! Those guys are late!
[09:54] Mao
Why haven't they come yet?!
[09:56] Meigo
Demon Lord.
[09:58] Meigo
There was a letter in the
mailbox from the Hero.
[10:00] Mao
Wait! Why does this castle have a mailbox?!
[10:04] Mao
Let's see.
[10:05] Mao
"Dear Mao-chan..."
[10:07] Yusha
Dear Mao-chan!
[10:08] Yusha
It seems we've lost our way,
[10:10] ---
so we're going to try
going back to the start!
[10:12] Mao
What?! That idiot!
[10:14] Rona
Impressive!
[10:16] Rona
Her actions are as unpredictable
as the 518th Hero's!
[10:20] Mao
Is this any time to be impressed?!
[10:22] Mao
You're being held hostage, you know!
[10:24] Rona
I'm sure...
[10:26] Rona
she believes in you, Sensei!
[10:28] Rona
She has faith that you won't hurt me!
[10:36] Mao
I didn't raise her to be an adventurer
that runs away from the Demon Lord!
[10:41] Mao
I'll just have to go face her myself!
[10:44] Mao
Let's go, Princess, Meigo!
[10:47] Rona
Okay, Sensei!
[10:50] Mao
What's the matter, Meigo?
[10:53] Mao
Come on! Hurry up and come with us!
[10:56] Meigo
Understood.
[11:05] Yusha
This is where we started!
[11:09] Mei
Both before and after we
were flung into the past,
[11:12] ---
we met here and formed our party.
[11:15] Seira
And it was just because we happened to be
in the same class and sat next to each other.
[11:20] Fai
It wasn't very fateful.
[11:23] Yusha
Still, last time we all managed to make
it to our fight with the Demon Lord.
[11:33] Yusha
Because we all met here...
[11:41] Yusha
Seira-chan, what made you
want to become a Priest?
[11:44] Seira
Huh?
[11:45] Seira
Both my mother and my grandmother
came fom a long line of Priests.
[11:50] Seira
It's a bond that's tied our family
together for a long time... I guess?
[11:55] Seira
What about you, Fai?
[11:56] Seira
Why did you decide to become a warrior?
[11:59] Fai
To protect the forest and my
forest friends from bad people!
[12:03] Fai
And you, Mei-chan?
Why did you want to become a Mage?
[12:07] Fai
Or so I thought I'd ask,
but I guess it's because you love Cartado?
[12:10] Mei
That's right! That's why, but...
[12:14] Mei
What about you, Yusha-san?
Why did you want to become the Hero?
[12:18] Yusha
Yeah, I had forgotten why until just now.
[12:22] Yusha
But I remembered after coming here.
[12:25] Yusha
My reason... was that it's cool!
[12:30] Seira
What? That's too simple.
[12:32] Fai
But it's a perfect fit for Yu-chan!
[12:34] Mei
You're right. I can't see any other reason.
[12:40] Yusha
Oh, but there was one other reason!
[12:42] Demon Lord
So this is where you were?!
[12:45] Rona
Yusha-sama!
[12:48] Fai
Princess!
[12:49] Seira
You're safe?
[12:50] Rona
Yes! I'm glad to see you're safe, too!
[12:53] Mei
You're the one saying that?
[12:55] Demon Lord
Good grief, you're such bad students,
[12:58] ---
causing so much trouble for me!
[13:01] Yusha
Mao-chan!
[13:06] Demon Lord
Now, it's time for an extra lesson!
[13:08] Demon Lord
I'll show you the power of the Demon Lord
you've all been wanting to fight!
[13:13] Yusha
Wait! We—
[13:19] Demon Lord
I won't say it again.
[13:21] Demon Lord
Draw your weapons.
[13:24] Yusha
Mao-chan!
[13:25] Yusha
I... no, we don't want to fight you, Mao-chan!
[13:32] Demon Lord
You are naïve!
[13:33] Demon Lord
Is that what a Hero says to the Demon Lord?
[13:36] Yusha
No!
[13:37] Yusha
You're you, Mao-chan!
[13:40] Yusha
Our teacher!
[13:41] Seira
That's right!
[13:42] Seira
You still taught us a lot,
even knowing we were the Hero's party!
[13:46] Mei
I learned a lot from you about
Cartado and how to use them!
[13:50] Fai
You were kinda scary when you got mad,
[13:52] ---
but you rewarded us when we worked hard,
and that made me happy!
[13:57] Yusha
We had fun with you, Mao-chan!
[14:01] Yusha
Was that not true for you?
[14:04] Demon Lord
Foolishness!
[14:06] Demon Lord
That's all...
[14:09] Mao
That was all...
[14:18] ---
That was all ridiculously fun for me, too!
[14:25] Mao
But if I stay here undefeated,
this island will be destroyed!
[14:32] Mao
All that'll be left for me is eternal isolation.
[14:36] Mao
Lonely, cold, and without anything else...
[14:42] Mao
I can't stand that anymore.
[14:46] Mao
In which case, it might not be so bad to
be defeated by students I raised myself.
[14:53] Yusha
Mao-chan...
[14:56] Yusha
All right.
[15:02] Seira
Yusha!
[15:02] Fai
Yu-chan!
[15:02] Mei
Yusha-san!
[15:04] Yusha
I always wanted to be a cool Hero.
[15:07] Yusha
A cool Hero who took down
the bad Demon Lord...
[15:12] Yusha
Demon Lord!
[15:14] Mao
That's right. That's how it should be.
[15:23] Yusha
Chibi-chan, dinner time!
[15:26] Yusha
Here!
[15:32] ---
Burp.
[15:37] Yusha
Good!
[15:38] All
What do you mean, "good"?!
[15:40] Mao
What are you thinking?!
That was the Hero's sword!
[15:44] Rona
Right! Without that sword,
you can't be recognized as the Hero!
[15:48] Yusha
Listen, everyone!
[15:50] Yusha
The other reason I wanted
to become the Hero was that
[15:53] ---
I wanted everyone to have fun and be happy!
[15:56] Yusha
That's why!
[15:57] Yusha
And naturally, that includes
Mao-chan's smile, too!
[16:03] Yusha
If it means making Mao-chan cry,
then I don't need to be the Hero!
[16:08] Mao
Yulia Chardiet, you...
[16:14] Mei
It's hard to say this while you're
looking so accomplished, but...
[16:18] Fai
Without the Hero,
[16:20] ---
Mao-chan-sensei's going to recover the
power of the original Demon Lord
[16:24] ---
and fulfill her destiny to destroy the island.
[16:27] Yusha
Huh?
[16:28] Yusha
No way, that won't happen.
[16:31] Yusha
Right, Mao-chan?
[16:37] Yusha
Huh?
[16:39] Yusha
What do we do?!
[16:41] Mao
That's my line!
[16:44] Meigo
No, I've been waiting for this.
[16:54] ---
Burp.
[16:55] All
Huh?!
[16:57] Yusha
You can't eat Mao-chan!
[16:59] Seira
Come on! Spit her out!
[17:01] Mei
You'll upset your stomach!
[17:02] Fai
Don't eat food raw!
[17:04] Rona
I don't think that's the problem here!
[17:10] Yusha
Mao-chan! Thank goodness!
[17:14] Mao
Hey! What did that beast just do to me?!
[17:18] Mao
You! You! You!
[17:19] Meigo
Please calm down, Demon Lord.
[17:22] Meigo
More importantly,
how is your power as a Demon Lord?
[17:26] Mao
Huh?
[17:27] Mao
Of course, it's still inside me...
[17:30] Mao
It's gone?!
[17:32] All
Huh?!
[17:33] Meigo
On that day of the final battle between
the Demon Lord and the Hero's party...
[17:39] Meigo
I got caught up in the Hero's
forbidden spell, as well.
[17:58] Meigo
And...
[18:03] Meigo
while I was drifting in the gaps
between dimensions, this one saved me.
[18:08] Mao
No, it didn't save you, it...
[18:11] Yusha
You did good, Chibi-chan!
[18:14] Meigo
Normally it's impossible for
a golem to move on its own.
[18:18] Meigo
However, this one made it
possible for me to do so.
[18:22] Mao
Wait, wait, wait.
[18:23] Mao
So you're saying that thing ate the
concept of "golem" attached to you?
[18:28] Meigo
Yes.
[18:29] Meigo
So I thought this one might
also have the ability to erase
[18:35] ---
the destiny of the Hero and Demon Lord
by eating those concepts, as well.
[18:41] Fai
And it seems like you were right.
[18:44] Meigo
This was all thanks to Yusha-sama
casting aside her role as Hero.
[18:48] Meigo
Thank you very much.
[18:50] Yusha
Don't mention it!
[18:51] Yusha
If everyone can have fun and smile,
I'm perfectly okay with it!
[18:55] Mei
So the reason you told us all those things
was so you could save Mao-sensei, too.
[19:01] Rona
That just shows how much
Meigo-sama treasures Mao-sama!
[19:05] Meigo
Even if I couldn't move on my own,
I was always watching her.
[19:10] Mao
Uh, more importantly...
[19:13] Mao
Erasing a concept from someone
is a feat on par with creator gods!
[19:19] Mao
Why are you all keeping such a
mysterious beast around as a pet?
[19:24] Yusha
Chibi-chan's your pet, right, Seira-chan?
[19:27] Seira
Huh? I thought it was Mei's.
[19:29] Mei
Huh? I could have sworn Fai-san
brought it with her from the forest.
[19:33] Fai
Huh? There's nothing like her in the forest.
[19:36] Fai
Besides, she's closest to Yu-chan.
[19:40] Yusha
Hey... How long has Chibi-chan been with us?
[19:43] Seira
Actually, I don't think she was with
us on our adventures last time.
[19:47] Mei
She was just kind of there one day.
[19:52] All
Whatever!
[19:56] Mao
Good grief. What am I going to do with you all?
[20:05] Yusha
It's morning!
[20:08] Yusha
I'm suddenly feeling tired.
[20:11] Seira
We were pretty busy all night long.
[20:13] Mei
I want to go home and sleep.
[20:15] Mao
Don't you all be late for
your first-period class.
[20:19] All
Huh?!
[20:20] Yusha
Mao-chan, that's mean!
[20:22] Seira
You're going to make us attend like this?!
[20:24] Fai
That's mean!
[20:25] Mei
Ogre! Devil! Demon Lord!
[20:27] Mao
Unfortunately for you,
I've cast off being a Demon Lord!
[20:31] Mao
Oh, also, you all...
[20:35] Yusha
What is it, Mao-chan?
[20:38] Mao
Uh, well, um, you know...
[20:42] Mao
Thanks for your help!
[20:48] Yusha
Don't mention it! We're friends!
[20:56] Mao
Well, I'm off!
[20:58] Meigo
Yes, Mao-sama.
[20:59] Mao
Yeah!
[21:01] Meigo
Take care.
[21:03] Mao
Watch the house while I'm gone!
[21:08] Mao
Come on. Let's get going.
[21:10] Mao
We'll set a bad example
as teachers if we're late.
[21:14] Warrior
Right!
[21:19] Warrior
Hey, I heard they cleared an
advanced quest the other day.
[21:23] Fighter
That's the Hero's party for you.
[21:25] Sprite
I bet they could defeat
the Demon Lord now, too.
[21:28] Fai
Everyone keeps saying those things,
[21:30] ---
but there's no Demon Lord
or Hero anymore.
[21:33] Mei
What's your job, Yusha-san?
[21:37] Yusha
I'm jobless, and you know it.
[21:40] Seira
But you can't accept quests if you're jobless.
[21:44] Yusha
I know.
[21:47] Rona
Good morning, everyone!
[21:50] Rona
I know it's early,
but please take a look at this!
[21:53] Fai
Princess, what's that book?
[21:55] Rona
Right!
[21:56] Rona
This is the new Tale of a Hero that I created!
[22:02] Yusha
Let me see.
[22:04] Yusha
Huh?
[22:05] Rona
It's just the cover right now.
[22:08] Rona
I got focused on the binding,
[22:09] ---
and then I was satisfied with that on its own.
[22:12] Fai
That happens.
[22:13] Mei
Yeah.
[22:14] Mei
There are times when I'm satisfied
just obtaining the Cartado I wanted.
[22:18] Mei
But then suddenly I remember that
[22:20] ---
Cartado aren't just collectibles,
and that you can
[22:23] ---
reach the depths of Cartado only
when they're used by their owner.
[22:27] ---
Then I realize how wrong I was
to hold off using Imperial Feast
[22:30] Yusha
It's blank.
[22:31] ---
when I was trying to keep it unused.
[22:32] Rona
I'm sorry, Yusha-sama.
[22:34] Yusha
Thank you, Rona-chan!
[22:36] Rona
Huh?
[22:39] Mao
Come on, now. Take your seats.
[22:43] Yusha
Mao-chan!
[22:44] Mao
What is it?
[22:45] Yusha
Our future is still blank, so we can
become anything we want, right?
[22:52] Mao
I suppose so.
[22:54] Yusha
In that case...
[22:56] Yusha
I'm going to be the Hero!
[23:01] Seira
That's our Yusha. I thought you'd say that.
[23:04] Fai
That's just the way Yu-chan should be!
[23:07] Mei
I'll pal with you!
[23:09] Mei
Like a pal, hah!
[23:11] Rona
Wonderful, Yusha-sama!
[23:16] Yusha
Chibi-chan!
[23:17] Seira
When did you get here?
[23:19] Fai
She pops in out of nowhere.
[23:20] Mao
Good grief.
[23:20] Mei
She's more mysterious than wacky seaweed.
[23:24] Mao
This is what's wrong with you Heroes.
[23:27] Mao
Well, I hope you give it your best.
[23:31] Yusha
Yeah!
[23:32] Yusha
I will!
