[00:11] Oyamada     Wait, you damn mutt! [00:13] Oyamada     Don't run off with my EXP! [00:18] Kirihara     Draconic Buster. [00:28] Kirihara     That puts me at level 18. [00:42] Kashima     I... I can't. [00:44] Kashima     I can't do this after all. [00:45] Ikusaba     Kobato! [00:48] Ikusaba     What are you doing spacing out? [00:49] Ikusaba     You'll get killed. [00:51] Kashima     Oh, Ikusaba-san... [00:52] Ikusaba     It's Asagi. [00:54] Kashima     Huh? [00:55] Ikusaba     I'm always saying how much I hate     being called by my family name. [00:59] Ikusaba     If you're doing it on purpose, [01:00] Ikusaba     then 70 percent of the girls     in class will ostracize you. [01:03] Kashima     I-I'm sorry. [01:05] Ikusaba     Yeah, I forgive you! [01:07] Ikusaba     Listen, there's something I wanna     confirm with our harmless little pigeon. [01:11] Kashima     What? Oh, um, sure. [01:12] Ikusaba     If I'm reading things right,      our class is probably gonna fall apart. [01:17] Kashima     Huh? [01:18] Ikusaba     I mean, it's full of big egos,     you know what I'm saying? [01:21] Ikusaba     A lot of them are a pain, too. [01:23] Ikusaba     And to make matters worse, we've been     assigned ranks like S-Class and E-Class. [01:27] Ikusaba     Oh, by the way, I'm a B-Class. [01:30] Ikusaba     In due time, distinct factions     are going to splinter off for sure. [01:34] Ikusaba     When that happens... [01:38] Ikusaba     of course you'll be joining mine, right? [01:40] Ikusaba     Won't you? [01:42] Kashima     Huh? [01:42] Ikusaba     As a D-Class, you won't make     it into Kirihara's group. [01:46] Ikusaba     And the Takao sisters are always a pair. [01:49] Ikusaba     Ayaka... is just going to die anyway, y'know? [01:51] Kashima     What? Sogou-san will? [01:54] Kashima     Wh-What do you mean by that? [01:56] Ikusaba     You don't get it, huh? [01:58] Ikusaba     At any rate, [01:59] Ikusaba     Kobato-chan, you should think long     and hard about where you stand. [02:03] Ikusaba     Depending on how things play out, [02:05] Ikusaba     if we manage to defeat this     Great Demon Empire and return to our world, [02:09] Ikusaba     then what we achieve here     could affect us back home, [02:13] Ikusaba     and you might find yourself     with nowhere to fit in, Kashima Kobato-chan. [02:18] Ikusaba     Even if your abilities suck, [02:20] Ikusaba     I can always make good use     of these in a pinch, after all. [02:23] Ikusaba     So let's do our best together, little pigeon. [02:26] Ikusaba     Now with that... [02:28] Ikusaba     Bring it out, girls! [02:34] Kashima     That's... [02:35] Ikusaba     Our sweet little pigeon hasn't yet cleared     the test the goddess assigned us, right? [02:43] Ikusaba     So we're gonna help you out. [02:46] Ikusaba     The Asagi group is all going     to get stronger together. [02:50] Ikusaba     So hurry up and kill it. [02:51] Ikusaba     Or do you want to be     disposed of like Mimori? [02:58] Ikusaba     Hurry up! [03:11] Ikusaba     Good job, little pigeon! [03:13] Ikusaba     You've passed the test,     and that settles things! [03:20] Ikusaba     Now you're one of us too, little pigeon. [03:36] Kashima     Mimori-kun... [03:42] (Flashback) Touka     Don't worry. [03:44] (Flashback) Touka     I won't abandon you. [03:52] Kashima     I'm sorry. I couldn't do anything. [04:08] Sogou     I... [04:16] Sogou     Mimori-kun! SIGN    Failure Frame SIGN    I Became the Strongest and Annihilated Everything with Low-Level Spells SIGN    Encounter AVENGER(S) [05:50] Vicius     Pity what happened with Sir Tooka Mimori. [05:54] Vicius     I'm so sorry, [05:56] Vicius     but that ritual is a firm policy     of the Kingdom of Alion. [06:00] Vicius     You have my deepest apologies, Miss Sogou. [06:04] Sogou     No way... [06:05] Vicius     However, you don't have     time to wallow in sadness. [06:08] Vicius     The ritual is still ongoing. [06:10] Sogou     Huh? [06:10] Vicius     These past few days,     while you've been sleeping away, [06:14] Vicius     everyone else departed on a test     to determine if they can kill a monster. [06:18] Vicius     However, several have failed to take up arms     against the monsters and been disqualified. [06:24] Vicius     And we must ask that those who cannot     fulfill their duty as heroes take their leave. [06:29] Sogou     You mean to cull the weak? [06:31] Vicius     That is Alion's policy. [06:35] Sogou     Let me be clear, Goddess. [06:37] Vicius     Go right ahead. [06:38] Vicius     Please speak your mind. [06:40] Sogou     I do not agree with the     way you're doing things. [06:46] Vicius     Well, the world is full of all sorts     of people and opinions. [06:50] Vicius     As a goddess, I am tolerant of all. [06:53] Vicius     So I'm willing to brook      a slight difference of views. [06:59] Vicius     That said, we must dispose of the worthless. [07:04] Vicius     It's unfortunate. [07:05] Sogou     An S-Class hero is valuable to you, right? [07:09] Vicius     Yes! Extraordinarily so. [07:12] Sogou     Then I'll do my duty as an S-Class hero [07:15] Sogou     to make up for the students     who couldn't clear your test. [07:18] Sogou     If I do that, will you call off      their disposal? [07:21] Vicius     My, how courageous!      What a wonderful proposal! [07:24] Vicius     I'd expect no less of an S-Class hero! [07:27] Vicius     Now then, let us shake     hands in reconciliation. [07:30] Vicius     I do apologize for punching     you in the stomach, [07:33] Vicius     even if it was to settle your hysterics     over the unusual nature of your situation. [07:44] Vicius     I have high hopes for you, Miss Sogou. [07:48] Sogou     Right. [07:53] Sogou     What cold hands...

[08:45] Ashura     Right, Zarash? [08:47] Zarash     We'll have to start by carving     the truth into her soul. SIGN    "The Fang" Zarash Finebard [08:51] Zarash     That any attempt at escape or resistance      is futile against us, the Holy Watchers. SIGN    The Holy Watchers [09:02] Touka     Now then...

SIGN    Inflict Poison, Poison LV 3 / Consumes 10 MP     Multitarget Selection/Dismissable/Nonlethal Setting [09:18] Touka     Guess I can avoid killing targets that way. [09:20] Touka     Maybe I'll try it out if     there's a monster nearby. [09:25] Touka     Next... [09:28] Touka     I need a blade. [09:30] Touka     A sword. [09:31] Touka     Someone who can act as a tank     and handle the frontline for me. [09:40] Touka     Are those... [09:42] Touka     slimes? [09:54] Touka     Don't let them get away with that. [10:03] Touka     I guess that's that... [10:10] Touka     That's the spirit! [10:14] Touka     Paralyze. [10:16] Touka     Poison.

[10:45] Touka     Though I am going to say     something kinda haughty. [10:50] Touka     Sorry for not helping you sooner. [10:53] Touka     But, well, you did good. [10:56] Touka     It was nice to see you stand     up for yourself against them. [11:00] Touka     Don't attack me once you can move, okay? SIGN    Paralyze (Dismiss) [11:05] Touka     Later. [11:07] Touka     Have a nice life. [11:36] Touka     Well, damn. [11:37] Touka     You planning to keep following me? [11:43] Touka     I see. [11:45] Touka     You're an outcast just like me, aren't you? [11:52] Seras     They're far away. [11:53] Seras     But their presence still lingers. [11:56] Seras     They're just waiting     for me to exhaust myself. [11:59] Seras     So this is how the Holy Watchers     of heroic blood hunt... [12:07] Touka     Can you see behind me? [12:10] Touka     Good. [12:10] Touka     Now I have eyes in the back of my head. [12:13] Touka     Befriending you was the right move. [12:18] Touka     Here we are. [12:19] Touka     I see. A forbidden art, huh? [12:22] Touka     I guess it would be. [12:23] Touka     An experiment to strengthen monsters... [12:25] Touka     It even describes how to craft     a solution to enhance slimes. [12:29] Touka     Anglin was probably afraid     of this being misused. [12:33] Touka     Hey. [12:35] Touka     What I'm after is plain     old personal vengeance. [12:39] Touka     I'm on a journey to that end. [12:43] Touka     So you'll be going along with my ego. [12:45] Touka     Are you okay with that? [12:47] Touka     If you want out, now's your chance. [12:51] Touka     Hmph, I see. [12:53] Touka     Then I'll be counting on you, Piggymaru. [12:59] Touka     That's your name. [13:01] Touka     But if you have any objections,     I'm listening. SIGN    Slime SIGN    Piggymaru [13:08] Touka     Forbidden magic and arts...

[13:27] Seras     I really can't shake them! [13:32] Seras     I guess I'll have to use it. [13:35] Seras     What I seek is the regalia of spirits. [13:39] Seras     By our pact, [13:41] Seras     I offer thee my sleep as payment... [13:46] Seras     Silfigzea, [13:50] Seras     Ferillbanger, [13:54] Seras     Willozega!

[14:15] Zarash     Some mangy brat? [14:17] Zarash     The mere sight of you disgusts me. [14:20] Jiobane     Well, for now, go ahead     and drop all your valuables. [14:24] Jiobane     Then we'll spare your life. [14:26] Magats     No, we're killing him. [14:28] Magats     I haven't tested this baby's edge     on a living human yet. [14:33] Magats     So I'll try it out on this sack of trash. [14:36] Zarash     If you are, then make it quick, Magats. [14:39] Zarash     The girl should be running     out of stamina soon. [14:42] Ashura     The nice thing about men is there's     no wasting time enjoying them first! [14:46] Ashura     Not much fun in abusing 'em     before we kill 'em. [14:49] Ashura     Let's hurry up and catch the woman so we     can use the money at Ablom's brothel. [14:51] Jiobane     Better yet, let's grab a good-looking      girl from a nearby town [14:56] Jiobane     and drag her around for half a year     while we have fun breaking her. [14:59] Ashura     Screw you! [15:00] Ashura     No woman's ever lasted half a year     when you set out to break her! [15:04] Jiobane     Shut up! [15:06] Jiobane     It's their fault for losing it so fast. [15:08] Jiobane     Honestly, having our way with      that woman would be the best course. [15:11] Ashura     Man, I won't be satisfied with human     women after laying eyes on that bitch! [15:20] Zarash     Even so, we have to refrain from taking     advantage of our prey this time. [15:25] Zarash     Remember who paid for this job. [15:28] Magats     So, where do you think you're going,     trying to back away in fright? [15:34] Touka     Please... [15:35] Touka     P-Please just let me go! [15:36] Touka     I don't want to die here for nothing! [15:40] Magats     I told you you're out of luck. [15:42] Magats     I'll test this out on you quick,     then we have to get back to work. [15:48] Magats     So go right the hell ahead     and fall victim to me, Magats! [15:52] Touka     Paralyze. [15:53] Ashura     Wha— [15:55] Touka     Good. [15:56] Touka     My status ailment skill     is effective on humans, too. [15:59] Touka     I guess that damn goddess     is the only exception. [16:03] Jiobane     Impossible! [16:04] Touka     You're not as intimidating     as the monsters in the ruins. [16:07] Touka     Though I guess your malice is     equal to or worse than theirs. [16:11] Touka     I'm saying you're all scumbags. [16:15] Touka     You're mad too? [16:17] Touka     Of course. [16:18] Touka     Well, it's not going to bother me     if these guys die. [16:22] Touka     In fact, I think I'll feel better. [16:24] Touka     Meet bloodlust with bloodlust. [16:26] Touka     Meet hostility with the same. [16:28] Touka     In short, it means I can kill. [16:32] Touka     Even facing humans, I can kill. [16:36] Touka     Poison. [16:43] Touka     You can feel it too? [16:45] Touka     Yeah, I know. [16:48] Touka     There's someone else nearby. [16:52] Seras     Their presence is gone? [16:54] Seras     They're not moving? [16:57] Seras     Are they plotting something? [17:03] Seras     No, I can sense someone. [17:06] Seras     What is this feeling? [17:11] Seras     Their presence isn't terribly strong,     but it's unsettling. [17:15] Seras     The spirits are frightened of it. [17:20] Touka     Paralyze. [17:23] Touka     I sensed your intent to attack, [17:25] Touka     but there's something else     mixed in with your hostility. [17:29] Touka     It got me curious. [17:31] Touka     So I thought we could chat for a bit, [17:34] Touka     though I'm keeping you     immobile as a precaution. [17:38] Seras     What... are you after? [17:41] Touka     Well, I seem to be lost. [17:44] Touka     I'm not from around here, [17:46] Touka     so I'm not familiar these parts. [17:49] Touka     I was hoping you could help fill me in. [17:53] Seras     And the other four...? [17:54] Touka     Are they friends of yours? [17:57] Seras     Not at all... [17:59] Touka     I'm going to let you move your mouth now. [18:01] Touka     If you try anything funny,     I'll use my skill again. [18:05] Touka     I'm bluffing. SIGN    Paralyze (Dismiss) [18:06] Touka     I have means of hurting you, too. Got it? [18:07] Touka     It's impossible to stack Paralyze. SIGN    Paralyze (Partial Dismissal: Head) [18:09] Touka     Though I didn't exactly lie. [18:11] Touka     Understand? [18:13] Seras     Yes... [18:15] Seras     I-I can speak normally now? [18:19] Touka     Your mouth is all you can move. [18:21] Touka     Sorry, but I'm still wary of you. [18:25] Touka     I went through a lot on my way here, [18:27] Touka     so I don't readily trust strangers. [18:31] Seras     There is something I wish to confirm     before I answer your questions. [18:35] Seras     Did you encounter a group of four? [18:37] Touka     I did. [18:39] Seras     Where are they now? [18:40] Touka     I killed them. [18:41] Seras     What? You killed them? [18:44] Touka     Is that a problem? [18:46] Seras     No, but you slew the Holy Watchers... [18:49] Seras     Don't tell me you did it all by yourself. [18:51] Seras     Or do you have other allies nearby? [18:53] Touka     Just one. [18:55] Touka     Though I don't intend     to reveal them at the moment. [18:58] Seras     Thank you for humoring me. [19:02] Seras     I sensed no falsehood when you     claimed to have defeated those four. [19:06] Seras     I know you have answered me faithfully. [19:08] Touka     She seems extremely confident     in her ability to discern lies. [19:11] Seras     I will also answer your questions     as honestly as I can. [19:14] Seras     You are my savior after a fashion, after all. [19:17] Touka     You don't seem like a bad person to me. [19:20] Touka     So far. [19:22] Seras     Does that mean I've earned some of your trust? [19:25] Touka     A little. [19:26] Touka     But like you, there are things     I'd rather not talk about. [19:29] Touka     So I think it's best if neither of us      pries too much. [19:33] Seras     Yes, I would be grateful for that. [19:36] Touka     Okay, then it's my turn to ask questions. [19:39] Touka     I see... [19:41] Touka     So this isn't Alion. [19:42] Touka     It's a forest in the south     of the Kingdom of Ulza. [19:44] Touka     I just assumed the Ruins of Disposal      were in Alion. [19:48] Touka     One last question. [19:50] Touka     Do you know anything about this writing? [19:53] Seras     This... I believe it's ancient script. [19:56] Seras     A rather unique variation, too. [19:58] Touka     Can you read it? [20:00] Seras     No, I'm afraid I cannot. [20:03] Touka     I see. Okay. [20:05] Touka     I'll just have to research it the hard way. [20:06] Seras     However, I might know someone who     should be familiar with that writing. [20:12] Seras     She was once known as the Witch of Taboos. [20:15] Seras     She possessed such vast knowledge     of the forbidden in this world that [20:19] Seras     she was deemed dangerous. [20:21] Seras     I heard she was driven     from her homeland. [20:23] Touka     If I wanted to find her, where should I go? [20:26] Seras     The Land of Golden-Eyed Monsters. SIGN    Land of Golden-Eyed Monsters [20:28] Touka     Land of Golden-Eyed Monsters? [20:31] Seras     It's a treacherous heartland of the continent. [20:34] Touka     Thank you for the valuable tip. [20:36] Seras     I cannot say I've repaid my debts. [20:40] Seras     After all, you saved my life. [20:43] Touka     No, you can say we're even. [20:46] Touka     So now we'll be parting ways. [20:48] Touka     That's fine by you, right? [20:50] Seras     Y-Yes. [20:51] Seras     As long as you're satisfied. [20:53] Touka     She's got a real sense of honor. [20:55] Touka     For better or worse, she's too honest. [20:57] Touka     She reminds me of my aunt. [20:59] Touka     She was so nice that it     made me worry about her. [21:02] Seras     I-Is something the matter? [21:04] Touka     No. [21:05] Touka     You'll be free in a few minutes, [21:07] Touka     but I can't guarantee your     safety until then. [21:09] Seras     I understand. [21:10] Seras     I'll be released soon enough. [21:13] Touka     Yeah. This may not mean much     after I ambushed you, [21:19] Touka     but I'll pray for your safe travels. [21:35] Touka     Yeah. It's not like I take     any delight in slaughter. [21:41] Touka     I won't resort to pointless murder. [21:43] Touka     I only kill in accordance with my own rules. [21:48] Touka     I can't deny the possibility     that woman will come after me [21:51] Touka     to attack me once she's free to move. [21:54] Touka     So keep watching my back. [21:57] Touka     I'm counting on you, partner. [23:42] AdventurerA     That's a helluva bounty, ain't it? [23:44] AdventurerB     They say she was a paladin of Neah,     which got wiped out by Bakoss, [23:47] AdventurerB     and that she's the princess of that old     high elf nation too, you know. [23:51] AdventurerA     If some ruffians captured     her for the bounty, [23:55] AdventurerA     you think they'd hand over such     a beauty without having a taste? [23:58] AdventurerB     Anyone would want to try     fooling around with her. [24:01] AdventurerB     That Seras Ashrain. SIGN    The Woman Known as the Princess Knight
