    Land of Golden-Eyed Monsters
[00:01] Seras
    Lis, isn't it hard to handle
    all that luggage by yourself?
[00:06] Lis
    I'll be fine.
[00:09] Lis
    The less the rest of you have to carry,
[00:12] Lis
    the greater my chances of survival.
[00:14] Lis
    So please let me take this.
[00:17] Eve
    I'd like to respect Lis's wishes.
[00:20] Touka
    All right.
[00:21] Touka
    You're a part of our
    mercenary band too, after all.
[00:24] Touka
    If you get tired, don't hesitate to say so.
[00:27] Lis
    Right!
[00:29] Touka
    I'm counting on you to watch
    our surroundings, Piggymaru.
[00:35] Touka
    We're good on food and water.
[00:39] Touka
    Our greatest challenge is...
[00:45] Touka
    Stick to the plan.
[00:53] Touka
    Now come on out!
[01:00] Touka
    It's similar to the reptilian monsters
    I fought in the Ruins of Disposal.
[01:03] Touka
    The difference is that seaweed-like head...
[01:05] Touka
    Is it a seaweed-headed lizard?
[01:15] Touka
    Paralyze!
[01:19] Touka
    Poison.
[01:22] Touka
    Good work.
[01:24] Eve
    Did you achieve what you wanted, Tooka?
[01:26] Touka
    Yeah, we've cleared the first step.
[01:29] Touka
    Sleep.
[01:31] Touka
    I wasn't sure my skill would work on
    the creatures in the Land of Monsters,
[01:34] Touka
    but Poison, Paralyze, and Sleep
    all seem to be effective.
[01:42] Touka
    They're inferior.
[01:43] Eve
    Hmm?
[01:44] Touka
    They look similar,
[01:45] Touka
    but compared to the monsters
    I faced in the Ruins of Disposal,
[01:48] Touka
    these guys are far inferior in strength.
[01:50] Touka
    So it seems the monsters in the so-called
    Land of Monsters aren't too tough.
[01:58] Touka
    If this is all they've got,
[01:59] Touka
    they're no match for me.
[02:01] Seras
    Sir Tooka, what are you doing?
[02:04] Touka
    I think I saw this guy
    somewhere in this book.
[02:11] Seras
    Um, is this it?
[02:14] Touka
    Yeah, that's him.
[02:15] Touka
    Apparently this seaweed-esque bit
    is an ingredient for a forbidden item.
[02:19] Seras
    Something like the voice-altering
    stone in the Lord of the Flies' mask?
[02:23] Touka
    That's right.
[02:26] Touka
    If you're interested, you can take it.
[02:28] Seras
    Are you sure?
[02:30] Touka
    I know I don't have to worry with you.
[02:33] Seras
    Thank you.
[02:35] Touka
    Everyone's happy to get special treatment,
[02:38] Touka
    and that wasn't a lie.
[02:39] Touka
    Seras would see right through me
    if I didn't mind my words carefully.
[02:44] Touka
    All right, time to begin our conquest
    of the Land of Golden-Eyed Monsters.

    Land of the Golden-Eyed Monsters
[04:30] Touka
    Thanks for the save.
[04:33] Touka
    You're next, Lis.
[04:35] Lis
    Coming, Sir Tooka!
[04:37] Seras
    You can slip on the stones, so be careful.
[04:40] Lis
    I will.
[04:41] Eve
    Tooka, shouldn't I just carry her over?
[04:44] Touka
    She wants to do it herself.
[04:47] Touka
    So we should respect that, right?
[04:49] Eve
    Even so, what if she should slip?
[04:52] Lis
    I-I'll be all right.
[04:54] Lis
    I know I can't keep relying
    on you for everything, Big Sis!
[05:03] Lis
    Th-Thank you, little Piggymaru.
[05:07] Eve
    So you had a safety measure
    in place from the start?
[05:10] Touka
    Well, you know...
[05:11] Touka
    I want to do all I can to support Lis
    when she puts her mind to something, too.
[05:16] Touka
    She was in a situation similar
    to what I went through long ago.
[05:19] Eve
    Tooka, are you saying...?
[05:22] Touka
    Yeah, I'm really just doing this for myself.
[05:24] Eve
    Hmm...
[05:25] Lis
    Wh-What's the matter?
[05:27] Touka
    It's nothing.
[05:29] Touka
    Though you should be mindful when
     people say something like that.
[05:33] Touka
    It tends to mean they were talking about
    something they didn't want you to hear.
[05:36] Lis
    Big Sis, is that true...?
[05:38] Lis
    Um, I know I failed to make it across, but...
[05:42] Eve
    No. We certainly weren't talking about that.
[05:46] Eve
    You don't often hear about children
    born between elves and humans,
[05:50] Eve
    much less children born
     to high elf and human parents.
[05:54] Eve
    So we were discussing what
    a child born to Tooka and Seras
[05:58] Eve
    would be like if that happened.
[06:01] Lis
    Miss Seras?!
[06:05] Touka
    Are you sure you don't want to dry them out?
[06:07] Seras
    Yes, I'm sorry about this.
[06:09] Seras
    I got distracted and let my guard down.
[06:13] Seras
    How embarrassing of me.
[06:14] Eve
    So even you get distracted sometimes, hmm?
[06:18] Touka
    I can't tell if this leopardman
    is sharp or dense.
[06:24] Touka
    We can't have you catch a cold.
    At least wear this.
[06:26] Seras
    Huh? Oh, no, I'm fine.
[06:29] Touka
    Go on.
[06:30] Seras
    Then... I hope you don't mind me borrowing it.
[06:34] Touka
    I wash it pretty regularly.
[06:36] Seras
    Oh, please, don't worry about that.
[06:39] Touka
    You don't mind 'cause it smells like me?
[06:41] Seras
    Precisely.
[06:43] Touka
    I see.
[06:44] Touka
    I meant that as a joke.
[06:47] Seras
    I meant that as a joke, but...
[06:52] Lis
    What's the matter?
[06:55] Eve
    We're turning back, Lis.
[06:56] Lis
    Huh?
[06:57] Eve
    They found us. Tooka!
[06:58] Seras
    Lis, over here.
[07:01] Touka
    Monsters you recognize?
[07:02] Eve
    Yeah.
[07:03] Eve
    Sorry, I can't beat these.
[07:06] Touka
    I see.
[07:10] Touka
    Are these what forced you and Lis
     to flee the Land of Monsters?
[07:15] Eve
    Your orders, Tooka?
[07:16] Touka
    Stand back this time.
[07:18] Eve
    Understood.
[07:20] Touka
    I don't have time to prepare
    my combo attack with Piggymaru.
[07:41] Touka
    I see. You guys are...
[07:44] Touka
    You're opponents not even the greatest
    bloodsport warrior could defeat!
[07:48] Touka
    Welcome...
[07:49] Touka
    into my range!
[07:51] Touka
    Paralyze!
[07:54] Touka
    I won't give you a real fight.
[07:57] Touka
    You gleefully made your way here upon
     spotting the prey you'd once let get away,
[08:02] Touka
    not realizing you were the ones
     being hunted this time.
[08:05] Touka
    Berserk.
[08:07] Touka
    Berserk.
[08:13] Touka
    Sorry, but I'm finishing you off quick.
[08:20] Voice
    You have leveled up.

    Now then, Tooka...
[08:25] Eve
    Before the fight,
[08:26] Eve
    you sounded as if you knew of
     these monsters from somewhere.
[08:31] Touka
    They're probably nazorts.
[08:34] Touka
    Just as I thought.
[08:38] Eve
    Tooka...
[08:38] Eve
    D-Don't tell me you plan
     on eating that thing.
[08:42] Seras
    Don't get the wrong idea, Eve.
[08:44] Seras
    It's in Forbidden Arts: Complete Works,
     which I borrowed.
[08:47] Seras
    As I recall, it's one of the ingredients
    for enhancing slimes like Piggymaru.
[08:51] Seras
    Isn't it?
[08:52] Touka
    Yeah.
[08:53] Eve
    So that's what you're up to?
[08:55] Eve
    Hmm.
[08:56] Eve
    So Piggymaru will be the one ingesting
    that creepy, spongy substance.
[09:03] Touka
    It's fine.
[09:05] Touka
    Once the enhancement solution is finished,
    it won't look like this.
[09:10] Touka
    Probably.
[09:12] Lis
    Sir Tooka?
[09:13] Touka
    What?
[09:16] Touka
    Eve, can you sense anything?
[09:18] Eve
    I'm not sure.
[09:19] Eve
    There was definitely a monster,
[09:21] Eve
    but it was so brief.
[09:22] Touka
    Seras?
[09:23] Seras
    My spirits aren't responding either.
[09:25] Seras
    But something's there, no doubt.
[09:27] Seras
    And very close.
[09:28] Touka
    There's no malice or hostility.
[09:30] Touka
    Where is it?
[09:33] Touka
    What?
[09:36] Touka
    It's coming from me?
[09:42] Seras
    Sir Tooka, that's...
[09:44] Touka
    Yeah.
[09:46] Touka
    I guess it's about to hatch?
[10:00] Seras
    A-A horse?
[10:01] Touka
    Hey, Eve...
[10:03] Touka
    I feel like it got even bigger after hatching.
[10:08] Eve
    You noticed that too?
[10:10] Touka
    Is it a type of monster?
[10:12] Seras
    I know of several equine monsters, but this...
[10:16] Touka
    So not even you know it, huh?
[10:20] Seras
    Sir Tooka!
[10:21] Touka
    It's all right.
[10:25] Touka
    It has no hostility toward us.
[10:27] Lis
    A pony...
[10:30] Touka
    Hmm? What's this?
[10:33] Seras
    Pardon me.
[10:34] Seras
    This? It's an organ for absorbing magic.
[10:37] Seras
    It's a unique feature often found
     in monsters and magical creatures.
[10:41] Touka
    I see...
[10:42] Touka
    Could everyone but Piggymaru get back?
[10:45] Touka
    And Eve, can I ask you to keep
    an eye on our surroundings?
[10:48] Touka
    This little one might have increased in size
    from absorbing the magic in the area.
[10:54] Touka
    And in that case...
[10:57] Touka
    Does that bother you?

    The horse is amazing!
[11:20] Seras
    I see.
[11:22] Seras
    So it possesses the ability
    to transform by absorbing magic.
[11:25] Touka
    You consume roughly a thousand MP
    for your transformation, huh?
[11:29] Touka
    This size seems perfect for hauling luggage.
[11:33] Touka
    Hold on, do you want me to...
[11:36] Touka
    You want me to pour even
    more magic into you?
[11:40] Touka
    All right. Here I go.

[11:58] Touka
    We may have just added an
    interesting companion to our group.
[12:01] Touka
    Maybe it thinks of me as a parent.
[12:03] Lis
    It's part of our group?
    Um, what are we going to name it?
[12:07] Touka
    Good question...
[12:08] Touka
    It's a fantastical horse.
[12:10] Touka
    With eight legs.
[12:13] Touka
    Slei...
[12:15] Touka
    The horse that Odin once rode,
    the divine beast Sleipnir.
[12:20] Touka
    How about Slei?
[12:24] Seras
    It appears to approve.
[12:26] Seras
    We're happy to have you, Slei.
[12:29] Seras
    Huh?
[12:30] Seras
    S-Slei?!
[12:31] Seras
    I-I'd prefer you not do that there...
[12:34] Eve
    Seems it's taken a liking to you.
[12:37] Touka
    By the way, can you return
     to your original form?
[12:41] Touka
    I see. That's a relief.
[12:43] Seras
    Don't just feel relieved! Please stop it!
[12:50] Suou
    I'm sorry. This is all because we're weak.
[12:53] Sogou
    No, you're all doing your best.
[12:56] Ikusaba
    Good, good. Everyone's leveling
    up at a nice pace.
[13:00] Kanae
    All because of you, Asagi.
[13:02] Ikusaba
    My group is talented.
[13:04] Ikusaba
    We coordinate to snuff out monsters,
[13:06] Ikusaba
    and in the end, we split the
    experience like good friends.
[13:09] Ikusaba
    Thanks to that, even our
    timid little pigeon is leveling up.
[13:13] Kashima
    Th-Thank you.
[13:18] Oyamada
    What's got you so on edge, Takuto?
[13:21] Kirihara
    I don't like this.
[13:22] Oyamada
    Huh?
[13:23] Kirihara
    They keep throwing weaklings at us, giving us
     nothing but experience to appease us.
[13:27] Kirihara
    Like lessons for little children.
[13:29] Kirihara
    They've grossly underestimated me.
[13:32] Kirihara
    I'll need to teach those top fighters
[13:37] Kirihara
    just who I am.

    This feels likely to be too much

[13:52] Agito
    Okay, so...
[13:54] Agito
    Could you heroes stand back a bit?
[13:57] Agito
    Saber Tigers, can you tighten up

[14:01] Kirihara
    Stand back?
[14:05] Kashima
    Wh-What is that?
[14:06] Kanae
    Ew, gross! That's creepy!
[14:14] Nyantan
    I'll handle the one in front.
[14:16] Nyantan
    These are strong, so I might not have
    the leeway to save the kill for the heroes.
[14:22] Agito
    Then I'll deal with the second
    one coming up behind it.
[14:26] Agito
    Will you join us, Abyss?
[14:27] Abyss
    Sure.
[14:39] Kashima
    A-Amazing!
[14:44] Kirihara
    You're telling me to stand back...
[14:47] Agito
    Abyss, some of the monsters
    have changed course!
[14:50] Agito
    They're after the heroes behind us!
[14:52] Abyss
    Leave them to me.
[14:52] Kirihara
    ...against monsters of that level?

    Hijiri-san and Itsuki-san?
[15:27] Hijiri
    Looks like something's going on over there.
[15:30] Itsuki
    Might be time for us to head back.
[15:32] Itsuki
    These guys offed themselves the moment
     we discovered them, anyway.
[15:36] Hijiri
    I suppose that means they were spies
    who'd sworn their lives to their master.
[15:41] Itsuki
    Which country would do this, though?
[15:43] Hijiri
    Now that's a good question.
[15:45] Hijiri
    I think they were dispatched to do
    something to those of us in 2-C...
[15:49] Hijiri
    by the Goddess Vicius.
[15:52] Hijiri
    At least, that's my read on them.
[15:56] Seras
    I've finished preparing dinner.
[15:59] Touka
    Okay.
[16:00] Touka
    Thanks to Slei, we're making much
    better time than we expected.
[16:04] Seras
    Yes, it looks like it's not much
    further to the Witch of Taboos.
[16:08] Seras
    What are you looking at?
[16:10] Touka
    I saw a strange light in the distance.
[16:12] Touka
    I thought it might be some
    monsters killing each other off.
[16:16] Seras
    That's to the northeast.
[16:18] Touka
    The northeast?
[16:19] Touka
    Oh, I see.
[16:20] Touka
    The direction of Alion,
    where that damn goddess lives.
[16:27] Seras
    Eve?
[16:29] Eve
    What is it, Seras?
[16:31] Seras
    I don't see Sir Tooka anywhere.
[16:34] Seras
    Or Piggymaru.
[16:36] Eve
    He's not the kind of man who'd leave us
[16:39] Eve
    in the middle of the Land of Monsters
     without a word.
[16:43] Eve
    You should already know that well.
[16:46] Seras
    I do.
[16:58] Touka
    You're up?
[16:59] Eve
    Tooka, those monsters...
[17:01] Touka
    I sensed them nearby
    while you were sleeping.
[17:03] Touka
    So I put them down.
[17:05] Eve
    That monster... Th-That's
    a human-faced beast, isn't it?
[17:08] Touka
    Yeah.
[17:09] Touka
    Though, compared to what I'm used to,
    it wasn't particularly troublesome.
[17:15] Touka
    Now I'm searching to see if it
    has any ingredients I can use.
[17:19] Eve
    You took a human-faced beast all by yourself?
[17:21] Eve
    Am I still dreaming?
[17:24] Seras
    No, that's just how Sir Tooka is.
[17:26] Seras
    Indeed, because we have him,
[17:29] Seras
    we can see a ray of hope in this plan
[17:31] Seras
    to head into the nightmare that is
    the heart of the Land of Monsters.
[17:35] Seras
    I'm confident you can make the
    impossible possible, Sir Tooka,
[17:39] Seras
    but please...
[17:40] Seras
    don't shoulder too much all on your own.
[17:45] Seras
    Looks like it's impossible
    to scale these cliffs, even with Slei.
[17:49] Eve
    Hmm, that means we'll have
    to follow the road along them.
[17:53] Touka
    I found a path that continues through
    the cliffs on the east side.
[17:57] Touka
    Let's hurry that way.
[17:58] Seras
    Sir Tooka, you should get some rest as well.
[18:02] Touka
    The wind's growing humid.
[18:04] Touka
    I want to get as far as we
    can before the rains hit.
[18:17] Eve
    I don't sense any monsters yet.
[18:20] Seras
    This lack of monsters...
[18:22] Seras
    Do you think it's because of our
     proximity to the Witch of Taboos?
[18:27] Touka
    Are you okay?
[18:28] Lis
    Yes.
[18:29] Touka
    Is the Land of Monsters scary?
[18:31] Lis
    I wouldn't say it hasn't been scary...
[18:34] Lis
    but I'm okay.
[18:36] Touka
    Don't go saying anything like,
[18:38] Touka
    "Dying here with Eve is better than
    continuing to live in Monroy."
[18:42] Lis
    That isn't exactly wrong...
[18:44] Lis
    but I don't believe I'm going to die here.
[18:47] Lis
    Miss Seras told me that
    as long as you live, Sir Tooka,
[18:53] Lis
    we should reach our destination safely.
[18:58] Touka
    She believes in me a little too much.
[19:01] Lis
    Still, thanks to her, I've held hope that
    we'll be fine so long as we have you with us.
[19:09] Lis
    We have Slei, too.
[19:12] Touka
    Both Eve and Lis have complete faith in me.
[19:20] Touka
    It's fine.
[19:22] Touka
    I can see this through.
[19:24] Touka
    I have no intention of betraying that faith.
[19:38] Touka
    We were able to avoid most of the detours.
[19:41] Touka
    Once we're through here,
    we'll be close to the witch.
[19:44] Seras
    We managed to make it this far somehow.
[19:47] Eve
    Indeed.
[19:48] Eve
    You've done well too, Lis.
[19:50] Lis
    Yeah.
[19:51] Eve
    I don't know how I can ever
    thank you, Tooka and Seras.
[19:54] Lis
    Big Sis, you're forgetting Piggymaru and Slei.
[19:58] Eve
    You're right.
[20:00] Eve
    I owe you both my heartfelt gratitude too.
[20:03] Eve
    You've been a great help.
[20:05] Touka
    Well, we all needed your map too, Eve.
[20:10] Touka
    I told you, right?
[20:11] Touka
    I didn't help you out of goodwill alone.
[20:13] Seras
    So you're saying we're even.
[20:15] Seras
    You're so kind, Sir Tooka.
[20:17] Touka
    Yeah.
[20:18] Eve
    I don't care if our home is small,
[20:20] Eve
    as long as I can live a quiet life with
    Lis in a peaceful land free from war.
[20:24] Eve
    The moment I thought my days
    as a bloodsport warrior were over
[20:27] Eve
    and that dream was finally in reach,
     it was snatched from me.
[20:32] Eve
    But now I have hope
    for that dream once more.
[20:35] Eve
    I know I talked about us starting a farm
    together once this is all over,
[20:40] Eve
    but maybe that future
    isn't so far off anymore.
[20:43] Lis
    Yeah. That's true, Big Sis.
[20:48] Seras
    Eve.
[20:50] Touka
    What? Completely out of nowhere?
[20:53] Touka
    Eve, wait!
[20:59] Touka
    That's not a human-faced beast, but...
[21:01] Eve
    Wh-What's the matter, Tooka?
[21:03] Touka
    Is that monster still breathing?
[21:06] Eve
    No, it seems to be dead.
[21:08] Eve
    It's not moving at all.
[21:10] Touka
    Paralyze.
[21:11] Touka
    Yeah, it's definitely dead.
[21:13] Touka
    Eve made the right call.
[21:15] Touka
    It caught us off guard at such close range.
[21:19] Touka
    That was definitely our best
    course of action, but...
[21:22] Touka
    What is the intense sense of unease
    I felt the moment it showed up?
[21:28] Touka
    Everyone, get back!
[21:30] Touka
    Don't tell me...
[21:40] Eve
    Wh-What was that just now? And this...
[21:44] Touka
    A heinous nature like the
    embodiment of a torture device,
[21:47] Touka
    malice blacker than the deepest inks,
[21:51] Touka
    and a sadism darker than coal tar...
[21:54] Touka
    Now I get it.
[21:58] Touka
    They're closing in.
[22:09] Kashima
    Wh-What?
[22:16] Touka
    They're flooding here from all directions.
[22:20] Touka
    But there...
[22:25] Touka
    There are far too many of them!
