SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    At the northernmost end of the continent,     I arrived at the place that     the people of this world call heaven:     Aureole, the land where souls rest. SIGN    Many souls gather there, and I spoke with     friends who once fought alongside me.     —Flamme the Legendary Mage [01:59] Himmel     Frieren. [02:08] Frieren     The royal capital's in sight. [02:10] Heiter     The adventurers are making     their triumphant return. [02:13] Heiter     They must be celebrating in the city. [02:17] Himmel     We'll have to look for work once we're back. [02:20] Frieren     You're already thinking about that? [02:23] Himmel     It's important, after all. [02:24] Himmel     We've defeated the Demon King,     but it's not over. [02:28] Himmel     We have the whole rest     of our lives ahead of us. [02:31] Eisen     Work, huh? [02:33] Heiter     I'd like something where     I can drink on the job. [02:36] Himmel     Aren't you a priest? [02:40] Frieren     I suppose you're right. [02:43] Himmel     Frieren, the life ahead of you will surely     be much longer than we can imagine. [02:52] Frieren     Perhaps. SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [03:30] King     Himmel the Hero, [03:32] King     Eisen the Warrior, Heiter the Priest, [03:36] King     and Frieren the Mage. [03:39] King     Thank you for defeating the Demon King. [03:43] King     Now our world will enter an age of peace. [04:02] Himmel     The king's going to erect     statues of us in the plaza. [04:07] Himmel     I'm not sure they'll be able to faithfully     recreate my handsome looks, though. [04:15] Frieren     How self-serving of him. [04:16] Frieren     He only gave us ten copper coins     when we left on our adventure. [04:22] Heiter     Now, now, Frieren.     Tonight, we drink for free. [04:26] Heiter     I'd say we're even, wouldn't you? [04:29] Frieren     You corrupt priest. [04:38] Eisen     It's over. [04:41] Himmel     Yeah. [04:42] Himmel     This is the end of our adventure. [04:46] Heiter     It's been ten years, huh? [04:48] Heiter     We've been through a lot. [04:52] Heiter     The day we departed... [04:54] Heiter     Himmel and Eisen were nearly executed     for speaking rudely to the king. [04:54] King     Kill them. [04:56] Frieren     We'll give them a talking to. [04:57] Heiter     Shall we lick your boots? [04:58] Frieren     One misstep, and our adventure     would've ended there. [05:02] Himmel     Sometimes, Heiter was too     hungover to do anything. [05:10] (Flashback) Frieren     You're as pallid as an undead.     Are you all right? [05:14] (Flashback) Heiter     No. [05:15] (Flashback) Himmel     No, huh? [05:17] Eisen     It was a weekly occurrence. [05:19] Frieren     I, on the other hand, was exceptional. [05:21] Eisen     We thought about leaving you behind     when that mimic tried to eat you. [05:25] (Flashback) Himmel     Seriously? We told her it was a trap. [05:26] Frieren     It's dark and scary in here! [05:28] (Flashback) Eisen     Why don't we leave the elf behind? [05:34] Himmel     We have nothing but terrible memories. [05:39] Himmel     But I had fun. [05:41] Himmel     I'm glad I got to adventure with all of you. [05:46] Heiter     Likewise. [05:47] Frieren     It was a mere ten-year adventure. [05:50] Himmel     "A mere ten-year adventure"? [05:51] Himmel     But that's an entire decade     we spent adventuring together. [05:54] Himmel     Look at Heiter. He's turned into an old man. [05:58] Heiter     That's rude. [05:59] Frieren     He always looked like that. [06:01] Heiter     That's rude. [06:09] Eisen     It's nearly time. [06:19] Heiter     The Era Meteor Shower, was it? [06:22] Himmel     It happens once every fifty years. [06:26] Himmel     Perfect for marking the     start of an era of peace. [06:32] Himmel     They're beautiful. [06:34] Frieren     The view's not so good     from inside the city, though. [06:36] Himmel     I'm having a moment over here.     Don't spoil the mood. [06:41] Frieren     Next time, then. [06:45] Frieren     I know a place where you     can see them more clearly. [06:47] Frieren     I'll take you there in fifty years. [06:53] Frieren     What? [06:54] Himmel     It's nothing. [06:58] Himmel     You're right. Let's go see them together. [07:24] Frieren     Well, I should go. [07:26] Himmel     What are you going to do now? [07:28] Frieren     I'm going to continue collecting spells. [07:31] Frieren     I plan to travel around the central lands     for the next hundred years or so. [07:34] Frieren     I'll stop by once in a while. [07:42] Heiter     I can't understand what     being an elf must be like. [07:44] Himmel     Seriously, how long has she been around? [07:48] Heiter     To her, fifty or even a hundred years     might be a trifling thing. [08:44] Shopkeeper     Shadow dragon horns? [08:46] Shopkeeper     We don't have those here. [08:49] Shopkeeper     Haven't seen a shadow dragon     in twenty or thirty years. [08:52] Frieren     I see. That's no good.     I need one for summoning. [08:59] Frieren     Come to think of it, I think Himmel still has     the horn we got at the Demon King's castle. [09:05] (Flashback) Himmel     It's exuding some kind of evil aura. [09:08] (Flashback) Himmel     It's not harmful to people, is it? [09:10] (Flashback) Frieren     I don't know. [09:12] (Flashback) Himmel     You don't know, huh? [09:14] Frieren     It's nearly time for the     Era Meteor Shower again. [09:17] Frieren     I'll pick the horn up when I visit him. [09:24] Frieren     The city's changed quite a bit     since I was last here. [09:42] Frieren     It should be around here. [09:45] Himmel     Frieren? [09:47] Frieren     Himmel... [09:55] Frieren     You're so old. [09:56] Himmel     Do you have to put it so bluntly? [10:00] Himmel     I'm still pretty handsome     at this age, though, aren't I? [10:06] Himmel     It's been fifty years.     You look the same as you ever did. [10:11] Himmel     I thought I'd never see you again. [10:17] Himmel     The Era Meteor Shower, huh? [10:19] Himmel     That brings back memories. [10:21] Frieren     About that thing we looted from     the Demon King's castle... [10:24] Himmel     You mean the shadow dragon horn? [10:27] Himmel     I've never forgotten about it. [10:30] Himmel     My cabinet's been exuding     an evil aura all this time. [10:34] Frieren     Sorry, I think. [10:36] Frieren     You could've stashed it     in a shed or something. [10:41] Himmel     I couldn't do that. [10:47] Himmel     You may not have thought much     of leaving it with me, [10:51] Himmel     but to me, it was a treasure     entrusted to me by a dear friend. [10:57] Himmel     I had to return it to you someday. [11:09] Frieren     It's not that big a deal. [11:32] Frieren     Himmel, are you ready yet? [11:34] Frieren     You're bald, anyway. There's no point     in fussing over your appearance. [11:38] Himmel     There are things we bald men     are particular about. [11:47] Himmel     Now, shall we go see the Era Meteor Shower? [11:59] Frieren     You've become rather dignified, Heiter. [12:02] Heiter     I'm a bishop of the holy city, after all. [12:04] Heiter     You haven't changed at all. [12:07] Frieren     Don't pat my head. [12:11] Frieren     Eisen, you haven't changed much. [12:14] Eisen     Is that how I seem to you? [12:16] Frieren     I would expect as much from a dwarf. [12:18] Himmel     So, where's this place where we can     see the meteor shower clearly? [12:22] Heiter     We're going there now? [12:24] Heiter     It's a bit early to see the     Era Meteor Shower, isn't it? [12:28] Frieren     Yeah. It's about a week's walk from here. [12:32] Eisen     It's that far away? [12:35] Himmel     Unbelievable. [12:36] Himmel     You should be kinder to the elderly. [12:42] Himmel     This brings back memories. [12:44] Himmel     Traveling together like this makes me     feel like we've returned to those days. [12:52] Himmel     We journeyed to all sorts of places. [12:56] Himmel     Everything seemed so brilliant and new. [13:25] Himmel     And you were always there     in those beautiful memories. [13:34] Himmel     I'd been looking forward to the day     when we'd all be together again. [13:40] Himmel     Thank you, Frieren. [13:43] Himmel     Because of you, I had this delightful     adventure at the very end. [14:12] Himmel     They're beautiful. [14:41] Heiter     I think Himmel was happy. [14:46] Frieren     You think so? [14:54] Attendant A     She was one of Mr. Himmel's companions? [14:58] Attendant A     I haven't seen her look sad once today. [15:00] Attendant B     How heartless. [15:03] Heiter     Now, now! We're not wearing     sad expressions, either. [15:07] Attendant C     Show some respect, Bishop! [15:08] Attendant D     You're heartless! [15:11] Heiter     You wound me. [15:37] Frieren     It's not like I knew anything about him. [15:53] Frieren     We only traveled together     for a mere ten years. [16:04] Frieren     I knew human lives were short, but... [16:10] Frieren     Why didn't I try to get to know him better? [16:23] Frieren     Don't pat my head. [16:34] Heiter     I should return to the holy city. [16:41] Heiter     Let me get a good look at your faces. [16:44] Heiter     This will probably be     the last time I see you. [16:47] Frieren     Are you unwell? [16:48] Heiter     My years of drinking have caught up to me. [16:51] Eisen     It's divine punishment. [16:54] Heiter     If you're ever in the holy city,     offer a drink at my grave. [17:00] Frieren     Heiter, you're not afraid of dying? [17:05] Heiter     We're the party of adventurers     that saved the world. [17:09] Heiter     We'll surely be living the good life     in Heaven after death. [17:13] Heiter     That's the whole reason     I fought alongside you. [17:17] Frieren     You corrupt priest. [17:21] Heiter     If you'll excuse me. [17:31] Frieren     I should get going, too. [17:35] Eisen     You're off to collect more spells? [17:37] Frieren     There's that, too, [17:40] Frieren     but I want to learn more about humans. [17:45] Eisen     I see. [17:47] Frieren     So I wanted to ask you something. [17:49] Frieren     Seeing as how I'm a mage, having a powerful     warrior to defend me would be a huge help. [17:55] Eisen     Give me a break. [17:57] Eisen     I'm too old to swing an axe now. [18:03] Eisen     Don't make that face, Frieren. [18:06] Eisen     Surprisingly, life slows down     once you've lost your vigor. [18:12] Frieren     I see. [18:14] Frieren     I'll see you later, Eisen. [18:17] Eisen     Yeah. See you later. SIGN    Episode 1: The Journey's End [19:00] Frieren     That's the tree I saw earlier. [19:02] Frieren     I always get lost in these woods. [19:05] Frieren     Where am I? SIGN    20 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     on the outskirts of the holy city of Strahl in the central lands [19:10] Fern     Are you looking for something? [19:18] Fern     Is something the matter? [19:20] Frieren     I'm looking for the home     of a man named Heiter. [19:24] Fern     Then you're a visitor. [19:30] Frieren     You're still alive, you corrupt priest? [19:34] Heiter     Turns out it's harder than I thought     to make a stylish exit. [19:38] Frieren     I brought some liquor to offer at your grave. [19:41] Frieren     Would you like a drink? [19:42] Heiter     I gave up drinking. [19:44] Frieren     I see. [19:46] Frieren     I doubt the Goddess will forgive you     even if you clean up your act now. [19:58] Heiter     Thank you. [20:05] Frieren     Who is she? [20:06] Heiter     Her name is Fern. [20:08] Heiter     She's a war orphan from the southern lands. [20:13] Frieren     It's not like you to     volunteer to help people. [20:18] Frieren     You're not Himmel, after all. [20:22] Heiter     Frieren, why did you come to visit me? [20:25] Frieren     I was in the holy city     picking up some things. [20:28] Frieren     I've been trying to get to know the people     I meet on my travels as much as possible. [20:33] Frieren     And I owe you a lot, so I came to     repay my debts before you died. [20:41] Heiter     In that case, I have a request. [20:45] Heiter     Will you take on an apprentice? [20:49] Heiter     Fern has potential as a mage. [20:53] Heiter     Will you take her with you on your travels? [20:59] Frieren     I'm sorry, Heiter.     That's the one thing I can't do. [21:02] Frieren     She'd only get in my way. [21:05] Frieren     You know how often     apprentice mages die in battle. [21:09] Frieren     I'm not sending a child my friend     asked me to look after to her death. [21:16] Heiter     I see. Then I have another request. [21:26] Heiter     This was unearthed from     the tomb of Ewig the Sage. [21:30] Heiter     This grimoire is said to contain lost     spells of resurrection and immortality. [21:37] Frieren     I find it hard to believe     such magic really exists. [21:41] Heiter     That's part of why I'd like you to decipher it. [21:45] Heiter     Can you do that? [21:47] Frieren     It's written in code using pictures. [21:49] Frieren     The people of this era     really liked this kind of thing. [21:52] Frieren     I could do it, given five or six years. [21:55] Heiter     I see. [21:57] Frieren     But why do you want this deciphered? [22:00] Frieren     I thought you weren't afraid of dying. [22:03] Heiter     I have two reasons. [22:06] Heiter     The first is that when I said that,     I was just putting on a brave face for you. [22:10] Heiter     The second is that I'm now more     afraid of dying than I was before. [22:15] Heiter     Even if I can't achieve immortality,     I'd like a bit more time. [22:28] Heiter     Besides, the holy scriptures tell us     to live healthy lives. [22:32] Heiter     A long life is the ultimate     expression of that, Frieren. [22:35] Frieren     You corrupt priest. [22:39] Heiter     Also, in your spare time,     will you teach Fern magic? [22:46] Heiter     As a priest, I don't have that knowledge. [22:51] Frieren     I could do that. [23:01] Frieren     There you are. [23:04] Frieren     I've been looking everywhere for you. [23:06] Frieren     Do you always train in the woods? [23:09] Fern     Was finding me difficult even for you? [23:13] Fern     Mr. Heiter often tells me     I'm practically invisible. [23:19] Fern     It's a very good thing, isn't it? [23:23] Frieren     It is. [23:27] Frieren     It's true. I can barely detect her mana. [23:32] Frieren     Her control over her mana is exceptional. [23:35] Frieren     How much has she studied at such a young age? [23:39] Fern     Mr. Heiter said when I can blast a hole     in that rock, I'll be a proper mage. [23:46] Frieren     Oh? Heiter knows what he's     talking about. That's— [23:55] Fern     As you just saw, my magic     dissipates and doesn't reach it. [24:00] Frieren     I see. [24:02] Fern     What should I do to train? [24:05] Frieren     Can I ask you something first? [24:09] Frieren     Do you like magic? [24:11] Fern     Somewhat. [24:16] Frieren     Just like me, then. [25:50] Heiter     Is Fern's training coming along smoothly? [25:50] Frieren     Are you trying to put on     a brave face again, Heiter? [25:51] Herbalist     It saddens me to see him treated like this. [25:53] Frieren     But they're worth looking for. [25:53] Herbalist     Magic sure is amazing, isn't it? [25:53] Fern     You keep collecting the strangest spells. [25:55] Heiter     It'd be a waste for you to die. [25:55] Himmel     Someday, I'd like to show them to you. SIGN    Episode 2                                        It Didn't Have to Be Magic... [25:57] Fern     It didn't have to be magic... E2 - It Didn't Have to Be Magic... Source: Crunchyroll Translator: Editor: Timer: QC: (Please feel free to edit the speaker names if incomplete or inaccurate. Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [01:30] Frieren     Long-range magic is a combination of     three key factors essential to mages. [01:39] Frieren     There's the amount of mana, [01:41] Frieren     the strength with which it's fired, and the     level of control the mage has over it. [01:45] Frieren     You know that much, don't you? [01:47] Fern     Yes. [01:48] Frieren     Earlier, your magic dissipated     before it reached its target. [01:51] Frieren     That's a sign that your mana     and firing strength are lacking. [01:56] Frieren     It's not something you can fix overnight. [01:59] Frieren     Regardless of your talent,     it'll take years to master. [02:08] Frieren     However, your level of control     over the magic is very high. [02:13] Frieren     That's what most people     tend to have trouble with. [02:15] Frieren     But you've got no problems there, [02:18] Frieren     so just be patient with yourself. [02:22] Fern     Okay. [03:34] Heiter     Is Fern's training coming along smoothly? [03:37] Frieren     In just four years, she's learned more     than most people do in ten. [03:41] Frieren     She's studying too hard.     It's not a good thing. [03:44] Heiter     She's been spending all her     time in the woods lately. [03:48] Heiter     She must really love magic. [03:51] Frieren     But she's still a long way     from becoming a proper mage. [03:55] Frieren     I'll finish deciphering the     grimoire before she does. [03:59] Heiter     I see. [04:02] Frieren     Say, Heiter. [04:04] Frieren     This grimoire probably... [04:10] Frieren     Heiter? [04:18] Heiter     Don't look at me like that. [04:21] Heiter     If anything, it's a miracle     I've been mobile until now. [04:30] Frieren     I'll try to decipher the grimoire quickly. [04:32] Heiter     I'd appreciate that. [04:39] Frieren     Fern, put your training on hold. [04:42] Frieren     Heiter collapsed.     I need you to stay with him. [04:46] Fern     But I still haven't hit the rock. [04:49] Frieren     You'll do it eventually. Right now— [04:53] Fern     Eventually isn't good enough. [04:57] Fern     Mr. Heiter will die before then. [05:04] Fern     He saved my life. [05:18] (Flashback) Heiter     It'd be a waste for you to die now. [05:22] (Flashback) Fern     A waste? [05:24] (Flashback) Heiter     A long time ago, I lost an old friend. [05:31] (Flashback) Heiter     Unlike me, he was straight as an arrow, [05:35] (Flashback) Heiter     and he never abandoned     anyone who was in need. [05:40] (Flashback) Heiter     If he'd survived instead of me,     he would've saved a lot of people. [05:47] (Flashback) Heiter     Since I'm not like him, I planned to     live out the rest of my days quietly, [05:53] (Flashback) Heiter     but one day, I suddenly realized something. [05:57] (Flashback) Heiter     If I died without doing anything, [05:59] (Flashback) Heiter     all the courage, strength of will,     and friendship I learned from him— [06:03] (Flashback) Heiter     even all my precious memories—     would vanish from this world. [06:12] (Flashback) Heiter     If you have precious memories     inside yourself as well, [06:17] (Flashback) Heiter     then I think it'd be a waste for you to die. [06:22] Fern     Mr. Heiter has always feared     dying and leaving me alone. [06:28] Fern     He did the right thing. [06:31] Fern     I don't want him to regret saving me. [06:34] Fern     I don't care if it's as a mage     or whatever else— [06:37] Fern     learning some kind of skill to support     myself is my way of repaying him. [06:42] Fern     I want him to be glad he saved me     and to know I'll be fine. [06:51] Frieren     You remember everything     I've taught you, don't you? [06:54] Fern     Yes. [06:55] Frieren     Then do as you like. [07:58] Frieren     It didn't contain any spells for bringing     back the dead or granting immortality. [08:02] Heiter     I see. [08:04] Frieren     Did you know that already? [08:06] Heiter     The fear of death is immeasurable. [08:09] Heiter     If such spells existed,     Ewig would've cast them on himself. [08:14] Frieren     Then why? [08:17] Heiter     How is Fern? [08:19] Frieren     She has room for improvement in some areas, [08:22] Frieren     but it wouldn't be wrong     to call her a proper mage. [08:26] Heiter     I see. Then she made it in time. [08:31] Heiter     Now she won't get in your way, Frieren. [08:36] (Flashback) Heiter     Will you bring her with you on your travels? [08:40] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm sorry, Heiter.     That's the one thing I can't do. [08:44] (Flashback) Frieren     She'd only get in my way. [08:46] Frieren     You tricked me, Heiter. [08:52] Heiter     Your payment for deciphering     the grimoire is in the desk drawer. [08:56] Heiter     Please leave this place tonight. [08:59] Frieren     Why? [09:01] Heiter     As you can see, I don't have much longer. [09:06] Heiter     I don't want her to experience     losing anyone else. [09:13] Heiter     Frieren, please look after Fern. [09:19] Frieren     Are you trying to put on     a brave face again, Heiter? [09:25] Frieren     Fern has been ready to say goodbye     to you for some time now. [09:29] Frieren     What you need to do before your death [09:32] Frieren     is give her a proper farewell [09:35] Frieren     and make as many memories as you can. [09:41] Heiter     Frieren, you really are a kind girl. [09:56] Frieren     Why did you save Fern? [10:16] Heiter     It's what Himmel the Hero would've done. [10:22] Frieren     You're right. [10:37] Frieren     Then maybe I'll do the same. [10:51] Fern     Thank you. [10:53] Fern     Because of you, I was able to     repay my debt to Mr. Heiter. [10:59] Frieren     He just tricked me, is all. [11:03] Frieren     This corrupt priest. [11:10] Frieren     Shall we go, then? SIGN    Episode 2: It Didn't Have to Be Magic... SIGN    26 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Turk region located in the central lands [11:34] Frieren     That's enough, Fern. [11:36] Frieren     We're finished. [11:41] Farmer     Thank you for your help. [11:43] Farmer     Here's your reward. [11:47] Fern     We've been doing such simple work. [11:50] Frieren     That's how adventuring goes. [11:52] Fern     What were we paid in? [11:54] Frieren     Folk magic. It's a spell     that produces warm tea. [11:58] Frieren     We'll try it out later. [12:02] Fern     The other day we learned a spell     for removing rust from bronze statues. [12:06] Fern     Before that, we learned a spell     for turning sweet grapes into sour ones. [12:08] Frieren     How is it? [12:09] Fern     Sour. [12:11] Fern     You keep collecting the strangest spells. [12:13] Frieren     It's my hobby, after all. [12:15] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you really do love magic. [12:19] Frieren     Only somewhat, like you. [12:22] Fern     I feel like we're a little different. [12:26] Frieren     We're the same. [12:29] Herbalist     Will you really do something for me? [12:33] Herbalist     Since I'm an herbalist,     I don't have any spells to teach you. [12:38] Frieren     That's fine. Just learning about     the local flora is helpful enough. [12:48] Herbalist     This is it. [12:54] Fern     It's a statue of Himmel the Hero. [12:57] Herbalist     It's in terrible shape, isn't it? [12:59] Herbalist     It's too much for one old woman to handle. [13:04] Herbalist     And the villagers don't care anymore. [13:10] (Flashback) Villager     Run! [13:30] Herbalist     When the village was attacked by a monster, [13:34] Herbalist     Mr. Himmel fought valiantly to defend us. [13:37] Herbalist     It saddens me to see him treated like this. [13:40] Frieren     No, it's what he deserves.     It's Himmel's fault for wanting to show off. [13:47] Frieren     When the villagers offered to make a statue     of him, he should have just declined. [13:53] (Flashback) Himmel     Is this okay? [13:54] (Flashback) Himmel     This pose isn't too handsome, is it? [13:56] (Flashback) Eisen     Just hurry up and pick something. [13:57] Frieren     He drove the sculptor mad     by spending 18 hours choosing a pose. [13:59] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm hungry. [14:02] Frieren     In the end, they settled on     a ridiculously plain one. [14:07] Herbalist     What a strange story. [14:09] Herbalist     Come to think of it, there was an     elven mage in the hero's party. [14:16] Frieren     Shall we get this cleaned up? [14:22] Herbalist     Thank you. [14:24] Herbalist     Magic sure is amazing, isn't it? [14:27] Herbalist     There isn't a speck of rust left. [14:32] Herbalist     I wish there was a bit more color, though. [14:34] Herbalist     Perhaps I'll plant some flowers later. [14:37] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you have a spell that     produces a field of flowers, right? [14:41] Frieren     You're right. I guess I could just     conjure something up... [14:47] Frieren     No, blue moon weed flowers would be best. [14:51] Fern     What kind of flowers are those? [14:54] Frieren     I don't know. I've never seen them. [14:56] Fern     Then why? [14:58] Freiren     They grow in Himmel's hometown. [15:00] Fern     But you can't conjure flowers     you've never seen before. [15:10] Herbalist     Blue moon weed... [15:12] Herbalist     Now that's a name I haven't     heard in a long time. [15:16] Herbalist     Long ago, there used to be a     field of them in those woods. [15:27] Frieren     They don't grow around here anymore? [15:30] Herbalist     They all died out. [15:33] Herbalist     It's been decades since they've     been spotted in these lands. [15:38] Frieren     I see. [15:42] Frieren     Let's go, Fern. [15:44] Fern     Okay. [15:50] Frieren     You're hiding something. [15:52] Frieren     I won't be mad, so show me what it is. [15:58] Frieren     They're seed rats. Pests that consume seeds. [16:02] Fern     I'll release them in the woods. [16:08] Frieren     Fern, shall we go look for blue moon weed? [16:12] Fern     Are you serious? [16:14] Frieren     There was a field of them     in these woods until recently. [16:17] Fern     That was decades ago. [16:19] Frieren     But they're worth looking for. [16:22] Frieren     If we find and analyze them, we can acquire     a spell for conjuring blue moon weed flowers. [16:28] Fern     For Mr. Himmel? [16:31] Frieren     No... [16:32] Frieren     I'm probably doing this for myself. [17:27] Fern     Ms. Frieren, we've been searching for     blue moon weed for six months now. [17:33] Frieren     You're right. Perhaps we should     broaden our search area. [17:46] Herbalist     Oh, I don't often see you on your own. [17:52] Herbalist     It's been a while since you     first came to the village. [17:57] Herbalist     Have you found any blue moon weed? [18:01] Fern     Do you think we'll find any? [18:05] Fern     Ms. Frieren's obsession with     magic is extraordinary. [18:09] Fern     At this rate, she'll continue searching     for years, if not decades. [18:14] Fern     She's a mage who possesses the     power to save many people. [18:20] Fern     She shouldn't spend her time searching     for something that doesn't exist. [18:26] Herbalist     You're so young. [18:30] Fern     Am I wrong? [18:33] Herbalist     I don't think so, [18:37] Herbalist     but Ms. Frieren must see things differently. [18:44] Herbalist     But since she's so much more     mature than we are, [18:49] Herbalist     I'm sure she'd understand if you honestly     conveyed those feelings to her. [19:12] Fern     These are the seeds of a related species     she kept for their medicinal properties. [19:17] Fern     Could we plant these around     Himmel's statue instead? [19:22] Frieren     I get it, Fern. [19:24] Frieren     I made you worry. [19:29] Frieren     I'm not just spending my own time on this. [19:32] Frieren     It's time to go. [19:34] Frieren     I'll end my search soon. [19:39] Fern     How many years is soon? [19:42] Frieren     Soon. [19:44] Fern     You don't know when to stop— [19:59] Frieren     Shall we follow it? [20:30] Fern     Ms. Frieren, why do you collect spells? [20:35] Frieren     It's just a hobby of mine. [20:36] Fern     I find that hard to believe. [20:39] Frieren     It really is just a hobby. [20:41] Frieren     I used to live much more apathetically. [21:11] (Flashback) Frieren     Gross. [21:21] Frieren     But then I got to know an idiot who     complimented the spells I gathered. [21:25] Frieren     That's all. [21:28] Fern     That's a silly reason. [21:31] Frieren     You're right. [21:54] Fern     Is that... [21:55] Frieren     It's a petal. [21:58] Frieren     They say seed rats bury their food     in safe places away from enemies. [22:03] Fern     They're clever animals, aren't they? [22:06] Frieren     I wouldn't say that. [22:08] Frieren     Since they bury their food in so many places,     they often forget where. [22:17] (Flashback) Frieren     Blue moon weed? [22:19] (Flashback) Himmel     It's a flower that grows in     my homeland. It's beautiful. [22:24] (Flashback) Himmel     Not as beautiful as me, though. [22:26] (Flashback) Frieren     Shall we get going? [22:29] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren. [22:31] (Flashback) Himmel     Someday, I'd like to show them to you. [22:34] (Flashback) Frieren     I see. [22:36] (Flashback) Frieren     If we have the opportunity, perhaps. [22:45] Frieren     I figured they'd be here,     but I wasn't expecting so many. [22:54] Frieren     It took longer than I would've liked, Himmel. [23:02] Fern     I can't believe we really found them. [23:05] Frieren     Now we can create a spell for blue moon weed. [23:08] Fern     Why are you so passionate about magic? [23:12] Fern     I don't understand. [23:14] Frieren     But you do. [23:16] Frieren     You never gave up on becoming a mage. [23:21] Fern     That's different. [23:23] Fern     I would've been happy to learn any skill     that allowed me to support myself. [23:29] Fern     It didn't have to be magic... [23:32] Frieren     But you chose magic. [23:47] Fern     You're right. [23:50] Herbalist     I never thought I'd see blue moon weed again. [23:56] Herbalist     They're beautiful. [23:59] Herbalist     Thank you, Ms. Frieren. [24:01] Herbalist     Now this statue will never be forgotten. [24:05] Frieren     Oh, I nearly forgot. [24:10] Frieren     There. [24:12] Herbalist     How cute. [24:15] Frieren     Shall we go? [25:50] Fern     That's too powerful. [25:51] Man     The Elder Sage of Corruption, Qual. [25:52] Old Man     He called you heartless for not checking on him. [25:53] Frieren     Let's put that into practice. [25:53] Himmel     How many years do you think     we've traveled together? [25:55] Fern     Does this journey have a purpose? [25:55] Frieren     Classroom study is important, too.

SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    27 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the trade city of Warm, located in the central lands [01:48] Frieren     Let's split up and replenish     our traveling supplies. [01:52] Fern     "Split up"? You've assigned me     most of the necessities. [01:56] Fern     Food, water, daily essentials. [01:59] Fern     What are you going to buy? [02:04] Frieren     Herbs and stuff. [02:07] Fern     That's the face she makes when     she's hiding something from me. [02:12] Fern     I've known Ms. Frieren for a long time. [02:14] Fern     Nothing good ever happens     when she makes that face. [02:17] Fern     She's definitely going to buy     something we don't need. [02:22] Frieren     I bought this. [02:23] Fern     What are you going to use that for? [02:25] Frieren     This potion only dissolves clothing. [02:28] Fern     Go return it. [02:29] Frieren     It's a book on magical history.     Classroom study is important, too. [02:34] Fern     Well, I wouldn't call that one unnecessary. [02:40] Frieren     I'll meet you at the inn later. [02:53] Fern     We can't afford to waste     our traveling funds. [02:57] Fern     I'd better keep a close eye on her. [03:04] Fern     An accessory shop? [03:09] (Flashback) Fern     You went to sleep without     drying your hair again. [03:15] Fern     So she's interested in fashion after all. [03:23] Fern     She seems really conflicted. [03:27] Fern     What's with that face? [03:29] Fern     I've never seen Ms. Frieren     look so troubled before. [03:55] Fern     She spent a lot of time on that. [04:02] Fern     I suppose an accessory wouldn't hurt. [04:05] Fern     It's better than weird bones or medicines. [04:11] Fern     Maybe I'll resume my shopping soon. [04:14] Frieren     Is there a shop around here     that sells good desserts? [04:18] Fern     Now that's not fair. [04:21] Townsfolk     There's a tavern in the basement     of that building. Try asking there. [04:25] Frieren     Thank you. [04:27] Fern     I haven't eaten anything sweet in months! [04:52] Frieren     This must be it. [04:54] Frieren     Is there a shop around here     that sells good desserts? [04:57] Fern     This clearly isn't the right     place to ask about desserts. [05:01] Ruffian A     A dessert joint? Who do you     think you're talking to? [05:08] Fern     Gulp. [05:09] Ruffian A     You better believe this city's got     mountains of delicious desserts. [05:14] Ruffian B     We can recommend you places all over. [05:18] Fern     So they do know about desserts here. [05:21] Frieren     For such rough-looking guys,     you know a lot about desserts. [05:23] Ruffian A     A bit of sugar gives us the energy     we need to adventure. [05:27] Ruffian A     Nothing beats rewarding yourself with     something sweet after a hard day's work. [05:27] Fern     So they're adventurers. Though I'd say     even "rough" is an understatement. [05:32] Fern     They're terrifying. [05:35] Ruffian A     See ya. [05:41] Fern     Is she going to a dessert shop? [05:47] Fern     Huh? She's heading in     the direction of our inn. [05:51] Fern     Is she going back? [05:54] Fern     I'm not even close to finishing my shopping. [06:00] Frieren     You're late. [06:02] Fern     I'm sorry. [06:04] Frieren     Well, no matter. Put your things down. [06:15] Frieren     Shall we go get something sweet to eat? [06:33] Frieren     What a nice view. No wonder     they recommended this place. [06:39] Fern     Ms. Frieren, I'm sorry for doubting you. [06:43] Frieren     What are you talking about? [06:45] Fern     Nothing. [06:47] Frieren     Choose whatever you'd like. [06:49] Fern     Can we afford it? [06:52] Frieren     I've been saving up secretly. [06:55] Fern     She's been keeping secret savings? [07:02] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what will you have? [07:05] Frieren     Well, today I feel like... [07:09] Fern     Merkur pudding, right? [07:14] (Flashback) Himmel     You feel like eating Merkur     pudding today, don't you? [07:17] (Flashback) Frieren     How did you know? [07:19] (Flashback) Himmel     How many years do you think     we've traveled together? [07:22] (Flashback) Himmel     I can just tell. [07:29] (Flashback) Frieren     I don't know anything about the rest of you. [07:33] (Flashback) Himmel     Then maybe I'll try harder     to teach you about myself. [07:36] (Flashback) Himmel     Incidentally, my favorite     food is Ruf-omelette. [07:39] (Flashback) Eisen     Mine's grapes. The sourer, the better. [07:42] (Flashback) Heiter     Mine is— [07:44] (Flashback) Frieren     Alcohol, right? [07:44] (Flashback) Frieren     I knew that already, you corrupt priest. [07:47] (Flashback) Eisen     That's nothing to blush about. [07:49] (Flashback) Himmel     It's not a good sign that the one thing     she remembers is your drinking. [07:55] Frieren     Fern, I'm sorry. [07:59] Fern     Why are you apologizing? [08:02] Frieren     I don't know anything about you, [08:05] Frieren     so I don't know what you like. [08:14] Fern     Come to think of it, it's my birthday today. [08:28] Fern     What a beautiful hair ornament. [08:30] Fern     Thank you. I'm delighted. [08:35] Frieren     Really? [08:37] Fern     You seem to be hopelessly dense,     so let me be clear. [08:43] Fern     I'm overjoyed that you     tried to get to know me. [08:50] Frieren     Only because I tried? [08:55] Fern     You really don't understand     people's feelings, do you? [09:10] Frieren     Shall we get going? [09:11] Fern     Sure. [09:26] Fern     By the way, Ms. Frieren,     does this journey have a purpose? [09:31] Frieren     Not particularly. I'm satisfying     my desire to collect spells. [09:37] Frieren     But whenever possible, [09:40] Frieren     I'd like to retrace the adventures     I had with Himmel and the others [09:45] Frieren     before all sign of them fades away. [09:47] Fern     That's something important to you, right? [09:53] Frieren     I don't know, so I'm trying     to figure that out. [10:02] Frieren     You've finally grown taller than me. [10:06] Fern     I'm sixteen now. I could be your older sister. [10:10] Frieren     My older sister? [10:12] Frieren     Our diets are mostly the same,     so it can't be that. [10:17] Frieren     How strange. SIGN    Episode 3: Killing Magic SIGN    27 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in Größe Forest, located in the central lands [10:50] Frieren     You've grown quite accustomed     to casting defensive spells. [10:55] Frieren     Let's put that into practice. [11:02] Fern     What? [11:08] Frieren     I aimed for the gaps in your defenses. [11:10] Frieren     If this had been a real battle, you'd be dead. [11:13] Frieren     Now, then... [11:16] Frieren     How will you handle this? [11:19] Fern     Like this. [11:20] Frieren     I see. [11:22] Frieren     Can you withstand this? [11:33] Frieren     That's enough for today. [11:43] Frieren     Defensive magic is powerful,     but it rapidly depletes your mana. [11:48] Frieren     You'll exhaust your mana supply in seconds     if you try to maintain it over a large area. [11:55] Fern     So the best option is to cast it in select     locations at the moment of impact. [12:00] Frieren     Exactly. [12:07] Frieren     Hup. [12:17] Fern     We've been practicing nothing     but defensive magic. [12:20] Frieren     It directly improves your chances of survival. [12:23] Fern     You're right. [12:24] Fern     A single defensive spell can defend     against most offensive spells. [12:28] Fern     It's strange how powerful they are. [12:31] Frieren     Fern, you haven't read the book on     magical history I gave you, have you? [12:35] Frieren     Magic is about theory as much as practice. [12:41] Frieren     I suppose I'll have to read     it to you at bedtime. [12:45] Fern     I'll read it myself. [12:47] Fern     I'm not a child, after all. [12:58] Fern     This village is where you wanted to go, right? [13:00] Fern     Are you here to collect odd spells again? [13:03] Frieren     No, not this time. [13:06] Villager     Now it's up to the weather. [13:08] Villager     Yeah. [13:10] Frieren     I have a question. [13:12] Villager A     It's an elf. [13:14] Villager B     White hair... [13:17] Old Straw Hat     Are you Ms. Frieren? [13:22] Frieren     How did you know? [13:26] Old Straw Hat     You're here to see the place where     Qual was sealed, aren't you? [13:30] Old Straw Hat     I'll show you the way. [13:32] Fern     Qual? [13:34] Old Straw Hat     The Elder Sage of Corruption, Qual. [13:38] Old Straw Hat     He's a demon who committed terrible     atrocities in this region eighty years ago, [13:43] Old Straw Hat     before being sealed away     by Himmel the Hero and his party. [13:50] Frieren     That seal will break soon,     so I'm here to defeat him, [13:54] Frieren     but how did you know? [13:57] Frieren     I haven't told anyone about this. [14:00] Old Straw Hat     Mr. Himmel visited this town every year     until about thirty years ago. [14:07] Old Straw Hat     He was apparently checking     on the condition of the seal. [14:11] Frieren     He always was a softie. [14:13] Old Straw Hat     He used to talk about you. [14:17] Old Straw Hat     He called you heartless     for not checking on him. [14:21] (Flashback) Himmel     She's cold, isn't she? [14:22] (Flashback) Old Straw Hat     Quite cold. [14:24] Frieren     Sorry about that. [14:26] (Flashback) Himmel     But she's not so heartless that     she'd leave the village to its fate. [14:31] (Flashback) Himmel     She'll come when the seal is about to break. [14:36] Old Straw Hat     That's what he said. [14:39] Frieren     I see. [14:48] Fern     This is it? [15:03] Frieren     It's become rather unstable. [15:06] Frieren     I'll dispel the seal tomorrow     and take care of Qual. [15:17] Fern     You're the one who sealed Qual, aren't you? [15:22] Fern     Is there a reason you did that? [15:26] Frieren     He was simply too strong. [15:32] Frieren     I couldn't beat him. [15:35] Frieren     Even among the Demon King's forces,     Qual was an exceptional mage. [15:40] Frieren     He developed the first piercing spell     in history, which he called Zoltraak. [15:46] Frieren     It pierced not only defensive spells but     the magic resistance of armor as well. [15:51] Frieren     It directly targeted and destroyed the body. [15:55] Frieren     It's said that in this region, [15:58] Frieren     40% of adventurers and 70% of mages     were killed by Zoltraak. [16:07] Fern     That's too powerful. [16:10] Frieren     Yes, it was. Much too powerful. [16:15] Frieren     And that's why it backfired on him. [16:19] Fern     What do you mean? [16:25] Frieren     You really haven't read that     history tome, have you? [16:28] Frieren     Are you sure I shouldn't read it to you? [16:31] Fern     I'll start reading it right now. [16:33] Frieren     No, it's fine. [16:35] Frieren     It's more important that     you get a good night's sleep. [16:39] Frieren     You'll see tomorrow, anyway. [16:47] Frieren     I'm dispelling the seal. [16:50] Frieren     Don't let your guard down. [17:20] Qual     It's been a while, Frieren. [17:24] Qual     How many years has it been? [17:27] Frieren     Eighty. [17:29] Qual     A mere eighty years, huh? [17:32] Frieren     For us, anyway. [17:35] Qual     And the Demon King? [17:37] Frieren     We killed him. [17:39] Qual     I see. [17:41] Qual     Then I shall avenge him. [17:46] Frieren     Fern, cast a defensive spell in front of us. [17:50] Qual     Zoltraak! [18:00] Qual     I'm surprised. [18:03] Qual     You blocked Zoltraak. [18:06] Qual     That defensive spell of yours     must be powerful indeed. [18:12] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what's going on? [18:17] Fern     That was ordinary offensive magic. [18:20] Frieren     That's Zoltraak. [18:22] Frieren     The killing magic he developed. [18:31] Frieren     Qual, your magic was simply too powerful. [18:37] Frieren     After you were sealed away, mages across     the land studied and analyzed Zoltraak. [18:46] Frieren     In just a few years, Zoltraak was     incorporated into humankind's magic system, [18:51] Frieren     and powerful new defensive spells     were developed. [18:58] Frieren     The magic resistance offered by equipment     has improved significantly as well, [19:02] Frieren     making Zoltraak no longer killing magic. [19:07] Frieren     Now it's just "ordinary offensive magic." [19:14] Frieren     Eighty years is quite a long time for humans. [19:18] Frieren     Qual, if you don't resist,     I'll make your death painless. [19:23] Qual     I see. [19:26] Qual     I see, I see. [19:28] Qual     It attunes itself to the offensive     magic and disperses its power. [19:34] Qual     A complex spell indeed. [19:38] Qual     It must consume a great deal of mana. [19:42] Frieren     He figured out the weakness     of defensive magic. [19:45] Frieren     Fern, you know what to do, right? [19:48] Fern     Yes. I saw it in our practices. [19:52] Frieren     Then protect me as well. [20:21] Qual     So you can fly? Interesting. [20:25] Frieren     Zoltraak. [20:36] Qual     Frieren... My spell... [21:00] Old Straw Hat     Now we can live in peace. [21:04] Frieren     That hat... [21:06] Old Straw Hat     This thing? [21:09] Old Straw Hat     Around here, the sun's rays are strong     even at this time of year, [21:13] Old Straw Hat     so all farmers wear them. [21:16] Frieren     I've seen this hat before. [21:25] Frieren     You're the brat who flipped my skirt up. [21:30] (Flashback) Brat     Take that! [21:33] (Flashback) Himmel     What do you think you're doing, brat? [21:36] (Flashback) Himmel     I'll kill you! You saw what I've     been wanting to see all this time! [21:40] (Flashback) Eisen     You'd better not kill him. [21:41] (Flashback) Heiter     I'll show you mine. [21:44] (Flashback) Frieren     Yikes. [21:49] Frieren     You're still alive. [21:51] Old Straw Hat     Thanks to you,     I'll be able to live even longer. [21:55] Old Straw Hat     I'm glad I trusted Himmel's words and waited. [22:10] Fern     Ms. Frieren, they thanked you. [22:13] Frieren     They didn't thank me. [22:17] Frieren     The people of this village     believed in Himmel. [22:22] Fern     I don't understand, exactly,     but I think Mr. Himmel believed in you. [22:34] Fern     What is it? [22:36] Frieren     Nothing. [24:20] Eisen     Because I felt sorry for you. [24:20] Heiter     Because it's more convenient that way. [24:21] Frieren     She was an irresponsible person. [24:23] Heiter     That's enough depressing talk. [24:24] Fern     Are you sure you haven't been     around since prehistoric times? [24:24] Frieren     You're more conscientious than you look. [24:25] Eisen     It was a long time ago.

SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     at the Granz Channel, located in the central lands [01:37] Village Chief     This area has always been     difficult to navigate, [01:41] Village Chief     so all kinds of things wash up here. [01:45] Village Chief     It used to be that the entire village     helped clean up the shore. [01:49] Frieren     But now you don't have enough people,     so it lies neglected. [01:53] Village Chief     These waters used to be beautifully clear. [01:59] Frieren     I know. [02:03] Village Chief     How about this as payment? [02:09] Frieren     It's a book written by     Flamme the Legendary Mage. [02:12] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [02:15] Frieren     Is this the only grimoire     you have in your village? [02:17] Village Chief     Yes. [02:19] Frieren     Very well. We'll clean up the area for you. [02:27] Fern     That grimoire is a fake, isn't it? [02:30] Frieren     I see you've been studying like     I told you to. Good girl, Fern. [02:35] Frieren     Books attributed to Flamme are never real.     This is just another poor imitation. [02:41] Fern     Why did you accept the job? [02:44] Frieren     To help someone in need. [02:47] Fern     I find that hard to believe. [02:50] Frieren     You're right. I'm doing this for me. [02:56] Fern     Sounds like we've got another     long stay ahead of us. [03:14] Shopkeeper     Thanks for being such a     regular customer, Fern. [03:17] Shopkeeper     I threw in an extra one for you. [03:20] Fern     Thank you. [03:21] Shopkeeper     It's been three months already. [03:24] Shopkeeper     Have you gotten used to the village? [03:26] Fern     Yes. [03:27] Old Woman     The shore gets cold this     time of year. Be careful. [03:36] Fern     It's winter already. [03:43] Fern     She's still asleep. [03:45] Fern     This place is a mess. [03:48] Fern     I just tidied up yesterday, too. [03:52] Fern     Ms. Frieren, it's morning. Please wake up. [04:07] Fern     Let's go clean up the shore. [04:33] Frieren     So cold... [04:37] Fern     I've been thinking. [04:39] Frieren     About what? [04:41] Fern     Are you actually a very sloppy person? [04:46] Fern     Every morning I wake you up, feed you     breakfast, and help you get dressed. [04:52] Fern     I'm practically your mother. [04:56] Frieren     I can do all that myself. [04:58] Fern     But then you'd sleep until noon. [05:01] Frieren     Yeah. [05:02] Fern     Well, I've already given up hope, anyway. [05:06] Frieren     Sorry. [05:08] Fern     How did you manage traveling     with the hero's party? [05:12] Fern     There wasn't anyone there     to look after you. [05:15] Frieren     I overslept all the time. [05:18] Fern     And you never got in trouble for it? [05:20] Frieren     I did, just once. [05:24] Fern     Just once? They must have been very tolerant. [05:29] Frieren     They were a whole different breed. [05:31] Frieren     Also, Heiter sometimes clicked his tongue. [05:34] (Flashback) Frieren     Sorry. [05:36] (Flashback) Eisen     Hey. [05:37] (Flashback) Himmel     I understand how you feel, but... [05:39] Fern     Sounds like they were rather upset with you. [05:55] Village Chief     How is the cleanup coming along? [05:58] Frieren     We have about a third of it left. [06:01] Village Chief     Do you think you'll be done in time     for the New Year's Festival? [06:04] Frieren     Just barely. [06:06] Village Chief     In that case, I hope you'll be able to watch     the sunrise this time, Ms. Frieren. [06:21] Fern     Is the beach cleanup related to     the New Year's Festival somehow? [06:27] Frieren     In this village, it's customary to watch the     sunrise on the day of the New Year's Festival. [06:31] Frieren     They say it's beautiful how the light     reflects off the clear waters. [06:38] Fern     You haven't seen it? [06:41] Frieren     Do you think I'd be able     to wake up that early? [06:43] Fern     I suppose not. [06:46] Frieren     Let's hurry. We don't have much time. [07:29] Fern     No problems with the water quality. [07:32] Frieren     We managed to finish by the day before. [07:35] Fern     It hardly looks like the same beach. [07:38] Village Chief     Thank you, Ms. Frieren. [07:41] Village Chief     You'll be joining us for the     New Year's Festival, won't you? [07:45] Frieren     Yes. [07:46] Village Chief     We'd love to have you. [07:49] Fern     Have you lost your mind, Ms. Frieren? [07:52] Fern     You'll have to wake up before the sun rises. [07:54] Fern     That's impossible for you. [07:56] Frieren     I'll be fine. I just need     to stay up all night. [07:59] Fern     You're that desperate to see the sunrise? [08:02] Frieren     Honestly, I'm not interested,     which is why I want to see it for myself. [08:07] Fern     I don't understand. [08:10] Frieren     No, I suppose you wouldn't. [08:19] (Flashback) Himmel     Why didn't you come to the     New Year's Festival, Frieren? [08:23] (Flashback) Himmel     The shock was so great,     it left Heiter bedridden. Poor guy. [08:28] (Flashback) Eisen     He's just out of commission     because he drank too much. [08:32] (Flashback) Frieren     What's the problem?     The rest of you got to go. [08:35] (Flashback) Himmel     We wanted you to enjoy it, too. [08:39] (Flashback) Frieren     It's just a sunrise.     I doubt I'd enjoy it much. [08:44] (Flashback) Himmel     No, you would. [08:46] (Flashback) Frieren     Why? [08:48] (Flashback) Himmel     Because you're that kind of person. [08:54] Fern     She's asleep. [08:57] Fern     She's asleep! [08:59] Fern     Ms. Frieren, wake up.     You'll be late for the New Year's Festival. [09:03] Frieren     Mother... [09:04] Fern     Who are you calling "Mother"? [09:08] Fern     Why am I doing this? [09:14] Frieren     Thank you, Fern. [09:30] Frieren     It's certainly pretty, but it wasn't     worth waking up early for. [09:36] Frieren     Himmel didn't understand me after all. [09:40] Frieren     Fern, I'm going home so I can go back to... [09:43] Fern     Ms. Frieren, it's beautiful. [09:48] Frieren     Is it? [09:51] Frieren     It's just a sunrise. [09:54] Fern     But you seem to be enjoying     yourself a little. [09:58] Frieren     That's because you're smiling. [10:10] Frieren     I wouldn't have been able to see     this sunrise if I'd been on my own. [10:14] Fern     Of course not. After all, you can't     get out of bed by yourself. SIGN    Episode 4: The Land Where Souls Rest [10:25] (Flashback) Heiter     Are these for your family? [10:27] (Flashback) Eisen     It was a long time ago. [10:29] (Flashback) Eisen     My village was attacked by demons. [10:36] (Flashback) Eisen     What are you doing? [10:38] (Flashback) Heiter     Praying. [10:39] (Flashback) Eisen     People return to nothingness when they die. [10:42] (Flashback) Heiter     No, they go to Heaven. [10:45] (Flashback) Frieren     Until several thousand years ago, [10:46] (Flashback) Frieren     the commonly held belief     was that there was no afterlife. [10:50] (Flashback) Frieren     Dwarves value tradition. [10:53] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm skeptical about the idea     of a heaven myself, [10:56] (Flashback) Frieren     but since current magics can't     observe the souls of the dead, [11:01] (Flashback) Frieren     its existence can't be proven or disproven. [11:04] (Flashback) Himmel     I don't think it matters either way. [11:07] (Flashback) Heiter     You're right. I don't care     if it exists or not. [11:12] (Flashback) Himmel     Should a man of the cloth be saying that,     you corrupt priest? [11:15] (Flashback) Heiter     But even if it doesn't exist,     I believe it should. [11:21] (Flashback) Eisen     Why? [11:22] (Flashback) Heiter     Because it's more convenient that way. [11:26] (Flashback) Heiter     All those people doing their best     to live deserve something better [11:29] (Flashback) Heiter     than nothingness awaiting them. [11:32] (Flashback) Heiter     I prefer to think they get to     live the good life in Heaven. [11:43] (Flashback) Himmel     That certainly is more convenient. [11:46] (Flashback) Himmel     Shall we pray? [11:47] (Flashback) Eisen     Yeah. SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Bredt region, located in the central lands [12:04] Frieren     Eisen, I'm here to hang out. [12:07] Eisen     You act like it hasn't been thirty years. [12:11] Frieren     What's a mere thirty years? [12:16] Eisen     You're right. [12:18] Eisen     I never thought you'd take on an apprentice. [12:23] Frieren     Eisen, is there anything you need help with? [12:28] Eisen     Frieren, I heard you asked     Heiter the same thing. [12:33] Eisen     I'm not on my deathbed yet. [12:36] Frieren     How do you know about that? [12:38] Eisen     Because we wrote to each other. [12:41] Frieren     You're more conscientious than you look. [12:43] Eisen     You're just too indifferent. [12:46] Frieren     So, do you need help with anything? [12:54] Frieren     Voll Basin... [12:56] Frieren     This place brings back memories. [12:58] Eisen     You've been here before? [12:59] Frieren     A long time ago. [13:01] Eisen     "A long time," she said.     How long must that be? [13:06] Fern     Perhaps she came here in prehistoric times. [13:08] Frieren     Not even I've lived that long. [13:13] Frieren     So, what are we looking for? [13:16] Eisen     The notes of Flamme the Legendary Mage. [13:21] Frieren     Fine. You know most of Flamme's     supposed writings are fake, though? [13:26] Eisen     I have a lead. [13:28] Eisen     Heiter deduced the location from records     on Flamme left in the holy city. [13:36] Eisen     Her genuine notes are located     somewhere in Voll Basin. [13:41] Eisen     Frieren, you must know that. [13:45] Frieren     That corrupt priest.     He'd gotten that far in his research? [13:50] Frieren     Fine. We'll begin by searching     for a large tree. [13:54] Eisen     A large tree? [13:56] Eisen     That's ridiculous. There are tons of trees. [14:00] Eisen     Well, I suppose you have     all the time in the world. [14:04] Frieren     That's right. [14:05] Frieren     But Fern wouldn't like that,     so I'll try to finish quickly. [14:12] Fern     Let's search as efficiently as possible. [14:18] Eisen     You've changed. [14:20] Eisen     You never cared about     other people's time before. [14:25] Frieren     Fern is scary when she's mad. [14:29] Eisen     I see. Then I should watch myself. [15:05] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [15:07] Fern     There's a large tree to the west     growing over some ruins. [15:11] Fern     This way. [15:13] Frieren     Got it. [15:17] Frieren     Hey. Why did you decide to     look for Flamme's notes? [15:23] Eisen     Because I felt sorry for you. [15:26] Frieren     What? [15:27] Eisen     I felt sorry for you and Himmel. [15:32] Eisen     On that day thirty years ago, [15:34] Eisen     you said you wished you'd gotten     to know Himmel better. [15:39] Eisen     You should tell Himmel himself that. [15:45] Eisen     They say the notes of Flamme the Legendary     Mage describe her conversing with the dead. [15:53] Frieren     That's just a fairy tale.     Besides, I don't want to see him now. [15:58] Eisen     All magic started as fairy tales. [16:02] Eisen     And don't you want to know more about Himmel? [16:06] Eisen     That's why I talked it over with Heiter. [16:09] Eisen     We were sure you had regrets,     so we wanted to help you. [16:24] Fern     Ms. Frieren, both the tree and ruins     are protected by a powerful barrier. [16:33] Frieren     Even after a thousand years, I'm still     dancing in the palm of my master's hand. [16:41] (Flashback) Frieren     How's that little sapling going to keep watch? [16:44] (Flashback) Flamme     Don't sell it short. [16:47] (Flashback) Flamme     Once it grows, it'll still be protecting     this place a thousand years from now. [16:53] (Flashback) Frieren     You'll be dead by then. [16:57] (Flashback) Flamme     But you won't be. [16:59] (Flashback) Flamme     Someday, you'll make a terrible mistake     and wish you'd gotten to know people better. [17:05] (Flashback) Frieren     Do you wish I knew you better?     Are you being needy? [17:09] (Flashback) Flamme     Yeah, no. [17:10] (Flashback) Flamme     When that happens, return to this place. [17:14] (Flashback) Flamme     Then I, Flamme the Legendary Mage,     will help you. [17:34] Fern     Those are Flamme's notes? [17:38] Fern     Are they real? [17:40] Frieren     They're real. [17:42] Fern     How do you know that? [17:44] Eisen     Frieren was Flamme's best student. [17:48] Fern     Flamme the Legendary Mage is an ancient hero     who's written about in magical history. [17:54] Fern     Are you sure you haven't been     around since prehistoric times? [17:58] Eisen     Does it say anything about     speaking to the dead? [18:01] Frieren     It's already opened to that very page. [18:05] Frieren     Did she know a thousand years ago     that I'd come here? [18:10] Frieren     What an unpleasant woman. [18:14] Frieren     "On the northernmost end of the continent..." [18:17] Flamme     I arrived at the place the people     of this world call heaven: [18:21] Flamme     Aureole, the land where souls rest. [18:26] Flamme     Many souls gather there, [18:29] Flamme     and I spoke with friends     who once fought alongside me. [18:34] Flamme     This discovery of the century... [18:37] Frieren     "...will propel research on souls forward." [18:42] Fern     Do you suppose it's true? [18:44] Frieren     Who knows? She was an irresponsible person. [18:48] Eisen     Heaven exists. [18:50] Eisen     It's more convenient if it does. [18:55] Frieren     You're right. Perhaps I should     believe in it for once. [19:00] Fern     Where exactly is this place? [19:03] Frieren     Give me a moment. [19:05] Frieren     The northern continent... Ende. [19:09] Fern     Ende? [19:11] Frieren     Yes. [19:13] Frieren     It's where the Demon King's     castle is located now. [19:18] Fern     But why there? [19:21] Eisen     Frieren. [19:22] Eisen     You must find Aureole and speak with Himmel. [19:29] Eisen     You said you'd help me, didn't you? [19:34] Frieren     You've learned some cunning tricks, Eisen. [19:37] Eisen     Thanks to Heiter. [19:40] Frieren     Fine. I didn't have a particular     destination anyway. [19:45] Frieren     But it's so cold around     the Demon King's castle. [19:50] Frieren     I don't want to go. [19:52] Fern     She's already feeling discouraged. [20:00] Fern     She fell asleep. [20:02] Eisen     What a carefree girl. [20:05] Frieren     It's cold. I don't want to go. [20:08] Fern     She's moaning in her sleep. [20:10] Fern     Is it really that cold around     the Demon King's castle? [20:17] Eisen     Ende, where the castle is, is located at the     very northernmost end of the continent. [20:23] Eisen     We went through a lot in that place. [20:28] Fern     A lot? [20:36] Fern     This is awkward. [20:39] Fern     Maybe I'll wake Ms. Frieren. [20:43] Fern     Ms. Frieren. Ms. Frieren. [20:49] Fern     She won't wake up. [20:51] Eisen     Say, Fern. Is she a good master? [20:57] Fern     That's a good question. [20:59] Fern     I don't really know. [21:01] Fern     All she does is drag me around     while she searches for magic. [21:08] Fern     But she does seem interested in getting     to know Mr. Himmel and his companions. [21:15] Fern     Perhaps she's not very interested in me. [21:20] Fern     Ms. Frieren only took me on as an apprentice [21:24] Fern     because she promised Mr. Heiter she would. [21:28] Eisen     I see. [21:30] Fern     But she's such a strange person. [21:34] Fern     After we began traveling together,     she started giving me birthday presents. [21:40] Fern     Normally she seems so disinterested in me. [21:44] Fern     I wonder what she's thinking.     She's so strange. [21:54] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, you're not going     to stay in the royal capital? [21:58] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm going to keep traveling. [22:00] (Flashback) Himmel     Alone? [22:01] (Flashback) Frieren     It'll be nice and easy. [22:03] (Flashback) Eisen     You're not going to take on an apprentice? [22:06] (Flashback) Eisen     Traveling is better when you     have someone to talk to. [22:09] (Flashback) Frieren     It's a waste of time. [22:11] (Flashback) Frieren     Even if I taught them, they'd die in no time. [22:17] (Flashback) Eisen     Frieren, that's not how relationships work. [22:21] (Flashback) Frieren     Yes, it is. [22:23] (Flashback) Frieren     My adventure with you wasn't even     one one-hundredth of my life. [22:29] (Flashback) Frieren     You must understand that, Eisen. [22:31] (Flashback) Eisen     I... [22:35] (Flashback) Heiter     Okay, okay. That's enough depressing talk. [22:38] (Flashback) Heiter     Today is a day for celebrating. Let's drink. [22:42] (Flashback) Himmel     You just want a reason to drink, don't you? [22:45] (Flashback) Heiter     You saw right through me. [22:46] (Flashback) Eisen     You're always drinking. [22:49] (Flashback) Frieren     You corrupt priest. [22:55] Eisen     Fern... [22:57] Eisen     She's a good master. [23:02] Fern     You're right. [23:08] Frieren     Eisen, you're really not coming with us? [23:11] Eisen     That's right. [23:12] Eisen     I told you before, I'd only get in your way. [23:18] Frieren     I see. [23:19] Eisen     You remember how to get to Ende, don't you? [23:23] Frieren     Yes. First we travel through the Wille region, [23:26] Frieren     and then we cross Riegel Canyon and pass     through the northern lands checkpoint. [23:32] Eisen     Sorry to ask this of you. [23:34] Eisen     It'll be a long journey. [23:36] Eisen     It took us ten years. [23:41] Fern     I see. [23:43] Fern     We'll be following the same path Mr. Himmel's     party took to the Demon King's castle. [24:14] Frieren     You're right. [24:16] Frieren     It'll be a mere ten-year adventure. [25:50] Child     Do you think I can become a powerful warrior? [25:50] Heiter     I'll haunt you after I'm dead. [25:51] Fern     You really do collect a lot of odd spells. [25:52] Villager     Travelers, may I have a moment of your time? [25:53] Frieren     Why haven't you defeated the dragon? [25:55] Eisen     You're searching for someone, aren't you?

[00:41] Fern     We'll be following the same path Mr. Himmel's     party took to the Demon King's castle. [00:56] Frieren     You're right. [00:58] Frieren     It'll be a mere ten-year adventure. [01:03] Eisen     One one-hundredth, huh? [01:07] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, you're not going     to stay in the royal capital? [01:11] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm going to keep traveling. [01:13] (Flashback) Himmel     Alone? [01:14] (Flashback) Frieren     It'll be nice and easy. [01:16] (Flashback) Eisen     You're not going to take on an apprentice? [01:19] (Flashback) Eisen     Traveling is better when you     have someone to talk to. [01:22] (Flashback) Frieren     It's a waste of time. [01:24] (Flashback) Frieren     Even if I taught them,     they'd die in no time. [01:30] (Flashback) Eisen     Frieren, that's not how relationships work. [01:34] (Flashback) Frieren     Yes, it is. [01:36] (Flashback) Frieren     My adventure with you wasn't even     one one-hundredth of my life. [01:43] Frieren     I might've said something like that. [01:47] Eisen     It's funny, isn't it? [01:49] Frieren     What is? [01:51] Eisen     That one one-hundredth changed you. [02:08] Eisen     Well, I'll see you later. [02:10] Frieren     See you again. [02:19] Fern     It's been half my life, you know. [02:24] Fern     The time I've spent with you. [02:28] Frieren     It's going to be even more     than that from now on. SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 5: Phantoms of the Dead [04:07] (Flashback) Heiter     Listen to me, Fern. [04:09] (Flashback) Heiter     From now, you must listen carefully to what     Frieren tells you and be a good girl, [04:15] (Flashback) Heiter     or else... [04:17] (Flashback) Fern     Or else what? [04:19] (Flashback) Heiter     I'll haunt you after I'm dead. [04:26] (Flashback) Fern     Mr. Heiter, do you mean that if I'm a bad     girl, you'll come see me after you die? [04:36] (Flashback) Heiter     You've grown into a clever girl.     Who taught you to act like that? [04:42] (Flashback) Heiter     I take it back. [04:45] (Flashback) Heiter     If you're a good girl, then I might     be willing to visit you sometimes. [04:57] Frieren     We're almost at the village. [05:01] Fern     I see. [05:04] Frieren     What? [05:05] Fern     Nothing. SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Wille region, located in the central lands [05:26] Shopkeeper     You're heading to the mountain pass, right? [05:29] Shopkeeper     I wouldn't if I were you. [05:31] Shopkeeper     A bunch of people have gone missing. [05:35] Frieren     Was it monsters? [05:37] Shopkeeper     Taken by ghosts, or so the rumors say. [05:40] Shopkeeper     Some people have seen them     with their own eyes. [05:42] Frieren     Could be the undead. [05:44] Frieren     Do you know what the ghosts look like? [05:46] Shopkeeper     I'm afraid not. [05:48] Shopkeeper     But if you're curious,     why not ask them yourselves? [06:02] Fern     To summarize, [06:04] Fern     people saw the ghosts of dead family and     acquaintances as they appeared in life. [06:11] Fern     Some witnesses claimed the     ghosts spoke to them. [06:15] Frieren     This isn't the work of the undead. [06:18] Fern     It's not? [06:23] Frieren     The undead are corpses controlled by magic, [06:27] Frieren     like zombies or skeletons. [06:31] Frieren     But these ghosts appeared     as they did in life. [06:35] Frieren     A reanimated corpse wouldn't look like that. [06:38] Frieren     This is the work of a completely     different type of monster. [06:43] Fern     You seem to have some inkling     of what it might be. [06:47] Frieren     It's a nasty one. We'd best     be careful to avoid it. [06:54] Frieren     We'll leave first thing in the morning. [06:57] Fern     Ms. Frieren, the villagers need help. [07:02] Frieren     You sound like Himmel and the others. [07:05] Fern     Unlike you, I'm a good girl. [07:09] Frieren     If you want to help, then I suppose we can. [07:13] Frieren     We'll be traveling through the     mountain pass either way. [07:31] Frieren     This is where the villagers have     been disappearing recently. [07:35] Frieren     At least there are plenty of clues. [07:40] Fern     There are signs of magic use here. [07:44] Frieren     Yes. What kind of magic do you think it was? [07:48] Fern     Illusion magic. [07:50] Fern     I read in a book on magical ecology     that there's a monster [07:54] Fern     that uses illusions to lure prey. [07:58] Frieren     The Einsam. [08:00] Frieren     Even among monsters of its type, [08:03] Frieren     it's an especially crafty and greedy     monster that consumes only humans. [08:08] Frieren     It shows people phantoms     of the dead to lure them in. [08:12] Fern     Does that really work? [08:14] Frieren     They're illusions of people very dear to them. [08:21] Frieren     But the Einsam's illusions     aren't a threat to mages. [08:27] Frieren     They're easily dispersed by high-density     mana such as offensive magic. [08:33] Fern     So we just need to shoot     the phantoms of the dead. [08:38] Frieren     Could you? [08:40] Fern     Of course. [08:42] Fern     After all, I know they're fake. [08:45] Frieren     I shot a phantom of my master     begging for her life. [08:50] Frieren     But I was used to hearing her     beg for her life, [08:54] Frieren     so I didn't feel particularly     guilty about it. [08:57] Frieren     Either way, it doesn't feel good. [09:01] Fern     What does it mean that you were accustomed     to hearing her beg for her life? [09:10] Fern     It's gotten misty. [09:13] Frieren     We're close. [09:16] Frieren     If you see a phantom,     don't hesitate to shoot it. [09:24] Heiter     Fern. [09:30] Fern     There it is. A phantom of the dead. [09:35] Fern     I'm calm. [09:38] Fern     I can shoot it. [09:41] Heiter     You've become quite the mage. [09:47] Heiter     I decided to pay you a visit     because you've been a good girl. [09:56] Fern     My memories... [09:57] Heiter     You were right to choose the path of a mage. [10:01] Heiter     You've always loved magic. [10:03] Fern     It's using my memories against me. [10:04] Heiter     You were so happy when     I gave you that staff. [10:07] Fern     How cruel. [10:10] Fern     One of my most cherished memories... [10:10] Heiter     You slept with it every night. [10:15] Frieren     Fern. [10:19] Frieren     No, huh? [10:28] Frieren     So it's Himmel this time. [10:31] Frieren     I assumed it'd be my master again. [10:36] Frieren     Does this mean I've changed? [10:43] Himmel     Frieren, shoot me. [10:47] Frieren     Right. That's what Himmel would say. [11:13] Frieren     Now the mountain pass is safe again. [11:17] Fern     Ms. Frieren... [11:19] Fern     That was a phantom of Mr. Heiter. [11:22] Fern     An impostor. [11:23] Frieren     Yes. [11:28] Frieren     Let's go see the real Heiter now. [11:32] Frieren     After all, we're trying to reach Aureole. [11:37] Fern     You're right. SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in Riegel Canyon, located in the central lands [11:49] Fern     That's a dragon? [11:52] Fern     I've never seen one before. [11:55] Frieren     Look at its nest. [11:58] Frieren     See that grimoire? [12:00] Frieren     It's one I've been looking for. [12:03] Fern     You do love your grimoires. [12:06] Fern     But what's it doing there? [12:08] Frieren     Dragons use objects infused     with magic to build their nests. [12:13] Frieren     That's a solar dragon. [12:16] Frieren     It's eaten numerous adventurers. [12:19] Frieren     Either way, we should probably take it out. [12:23] Frieren     Be careful you don't hit the nest. [12:26] Fern     Got it. [12:40] Fern     Ms. Frieren, that didn't do anything. [12:43] Frieren     Figures. Dragons really are tough. [12:46] Frieren     We have no choice, then. Let's run. [13:07] Frieren     We finally lost it. [13:09] Frieren     It's a quick flyer, too. [13:11] Frieren     I doubt we can beat it in an aerial battle. [13:13] Fern     I... I thought I was going to die. [13:18] Frieren     Let's head back. [13:20] Frieren     If we repeat that process enough times,     we'll beat it eventually. [13:28] Frieren     Of course. [13:29] Frieren     Mages don't play tag with dragons. [13:38] Frieren     I guess we'll just have     to take on a companion. [13:44] (Flashback) Frieren     A front-liner? [13:45] (Flashback) Eisen     Yeah. You're searching     for someone, aren't you? [13:48] (Flashback) Eisen     There's a warrior named Stark     in a village near Riegel Canyon. [13:54] (Flashback) Eisen     Pick him up on your way     into the northern lands. [13:57] (Flashback) Eisen     He's my apprentice. [14:00] (Flashback) Frieren     Huh. Is he a good warrior? [14:14] Fern     It's so peaceful, it's hard to     believe there's a dragon nearby. [14:18] Frieren     You're right. [14:22] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what kind of magic     does that grimoire contain? [14:28] Frieren     A spell that lets you see through clothes. [14:33] Fern     You really do collect a lot of odd spells. [14:37] Frieren     It's my hobby, after all. [14:40] Frieren     But it's practical, too. [14:42] Frieren     Depending on what you consider clothes,     it can reveal hidden weapons— [14:46] Villager A     Travelers, may I have a moment of your time? [14:51] Villager A     Mr. Stark would like to meet you. [14:54] Frieren     Well, that saves us having to look for him. [15:01] Villager A     Three years ago, that dragon     attacked the village. [15:14] Villager A     That's when Mr. Stark appeared. [15:19] Villager A     He stood his ground in front of that dragon. [15:23] Villager A     After a long standoff, the dragon left. [15:28] Villager A     Since then, because he's stayed here, [15:32] Villager A     the dragon hasn't attacked,     and we've lived in peace. [15:39] Fern     Then perhaps we could defeat     the dragon with Mr. Stark's help. [15:44] Frieren     I hope you're right. [15:48] Child A     Do you think I can become     a powerful warrior like you? [15:51] Stark     Sure you can. [15:53] Stark     But a warrior's job is hardly a noble one. [15:58] Child A     Grandma! [16:08] Stark     So you're the ones who     messed with the dragon. [16:11] Stark     Don't get it too worked up.     You'll put the village in danger. [16:16] Stark     Dragons are far more terrifying     than you think they are. [16:22] Stark     I got this scar on my forehead     fighting a shadow dragon— [16:25] Frieren     It's not that serious an injury. [16:30] Stark     Did my master put you up to this? [16:32] Stark     Who are you? [16:34] Frieren     Frieren the Mage. [16:39] Stark     Grandma, could you give us some privacy? [16:43] Stark     It's all right.     They're acquaintances of my master. [16:52] Stark     My master must be furious. [16:55] Stark     I left him without so much as a word. [16:58] Frieren     Stark, why haven't you defeated the dragon? [17:01] Frieren     You have no reason to remain in this village. [17:05] Stark     Why don't you tell me what you want first? [17:08] Stark     If you're here to send me back     to my master, then forget it. [17:12] Frieren     We want you to join us as our front-liner, [17:16] Frieren     though before that, we'd appreciate     your help in defeating the solar dragon. [17:20] Frieren     I want the grimoire in its nest. [17:23] Stark     Why? [17:24] Frieren     It's just a hobby. No particular reason. [17:28] Stark     We're talking about a solar dragon here. [17:30] Stark     It's not something you fight     for no particular reason. [17:41] (Flashback) Himmel     Wow! [17:44] Frieren     You're right. [17:46] Frieren     There was once an idiot who     complimented the spells I collected. [17:50] Frieren     Is that enough of a reason for you? [17:53] Stark     Complimented you, huh? [17:58] Stark     That's ridiculous. [17:59] Frieren     Right? [18:01] Stark     I don't mind joining your party. [18:05] Stark     My master told you to take     me with you, didn't he? [18:08] Stark     But I need the solar     dragon dealt with first. [18:12] Stark     Honestly, I've had trouble     defeating it alone. [18:16] Stark     Frieren, you can defeat it, can't you? [18:20] Frieren     If you can keep it busy     for thirty seconds, certainly. [18:24] Stark     I see. Thirty seconds, huh? [18:30] Stark     Do I really have to do that? [18:33] Fern     What is he talking about? [18:35] Frieren     I thought so. [18:38] Frieren     Stark, how much experience     do you have fighting monsters? [18:42] Stark     Zero! [18:43] Stark     Help me, Frieren! [18:46] Stark     I confronted the dragon at first. [18:49] Stark     But I was so scared,     I couldn't move a muscle! [18:54] Stark     It slices through houses     like they're vegetables! [18:58] Stark     A human doesn't stand a chance against it! [19:02] Stark     I figured it spared me on a whim, but then... [19:08] Stark     For some reason the dragon stopped attacking     the village, and I was treated like a hero. [19:13] Stark     And the villagers are such nice people! [19:16] (Flashback) Villager B     You're still young. Get plenty to eat. [19:18] (Flashback) Child A     Stark, show me your new killer move! [19:22] Stark     I couldn't leave if I wanted to. [19:25] Fern     Ms. Frieren, this one is no good.     Let's find someone else. [19:30] Stark     Please don't abandon me! [19:33] Frieren     No, he can fight the dragon. I know he can. [19:38] Fern     He'll need more than just encouragement... [20:02] Frieren     Stark, you have until tomorrow morning. [20:06] Frieren     Think carefully. [20:08] Frieren     I know you realize     you can't keep this up. [20:25] Villager C     You met Mr. Stark? [20:28] Villager C     He's a nice young man, isn't he? [20:30] Villager B     He seems to really enjoy our cooking. [20:36] Fern     People really love Mr. Stark. [20:38] Frieren     Well, he seems like a kind person. [20:42] Fern     Kind? [20:45] Fern     He only seemed cowardly to me. [20:48] Frieren     I won't deny the cowardly part. [20:50] Frieren     But in your first battle against monsters... [20:56] Frieren     Okay, okay. I'll forget about that. [21:01] Frieren     Honestly, you were so meek     and cute when you were little. [21:07] Fern     By the way, why doesn't the     dragon attack this village? [21:11] Frieren     Who knows? It could be     mere whimsy, or perhaps... [21:18] Fern     What's that sound? [21:20] Frieren     Stark, probably. [21:23] Frieren     If you're curious, why not check on him? [21:26] Frieren     I'm going to bed. [21:44] (Flashback) Frieren     Huh. Is he a good warrior? [21:50] (Flashback) Eisen     He was the only one who ran when demons     attacked his hometown. A coward. [22:00] (Flashback) Eisen     He's like me. [22:04] (Flashback) Eisen     So I taught him everything I knew. [22:09] (Flashback) Eisen     Now he's someone who can fight for another. [22:13] (Flashback) Frieren     I see. He's a good warrior, then. [22:38] Fern     So this fissure was left by your training. [24:20] Master     The passage of time is cruel. [24:20] Frieren     An old hag, huh? [24:21] Fern     Isn't that a bit dangerous? [24:21] Guard Captain     Don't cause any trouble in this town. [24:23] Stark     He must've been disappointed in me. [24:24] Eisen     We parted in anger. [24:25] Fern     Your hands are trembling. [24:25] Frieren     You even tremble the same way.

SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 6: The Hero of the Village [01:53] Fern     You don't intend to fight     the dragon, do you? [01:57] Fern     So why do you continue training? [02:01] Stark     When I arrived here, [02:03] Stark     all the villagers wore grim expressions     and lived in fear of the dragon. [02:08] Stark     Now those same people are smiling happily. [02:13] Stark     They say this village is safe     because I'm around, [02:18] Stark     even though I haven't done anything. [02:21] Stark     The dragon simply hasn't attacked this     village because it doesn't feel like it. [02:31] Fern     If the dragon attacks the village,     will you fight it? [02:36] Stark     I don't want to die. [02:38] Stark     But to the people of this village,     I'm a hero. [02:44] Stark     I'm Stark, the hero of this village. [02:47] Stark     I have to defend it. [02:52] Stark     That said, maybe I'd actually run away. [03:00] Stark     I got this scar on my forehead during a     fight with my master, not against monsters. [03:11] Stark     That was the first time he ever hit me. [03:16] Stark     He must've been disappointed in me. [03:19] Stark     In the end, he never praised me. Not once. [03:32] Stark     What? [03:35] Fern     I don't think you'll run. [03:41] Stark     You think you know me? [03:43] Fern     I don't know the first thing about you, but     I recalled my own terrifying experience. [03:47] Stark     A terrifying experience? [03:51] Fern     My first battle against a monster. [03:55] Fern     I'd trained plenty until then. [04:00] Fern     But my fear made me weak in the knees, [04:03] Fern     and I ran. [04:07] Fern     The monster wouldn't stop chasing me. [04:09] Fern     For some reason, Ms. Frieren     wouldn't help me. [04:12] Stark     My master was like that, too. [04:15] Fern     When it finally cornered me [04:18] Fern     and I steeled my resolve, [04:20] Fern     my body moved. [04:26] Fern     All I needed was resolve. [04:30] Fern     All the training you've done     won't let you down. [04:35] Fern     Though you're a hopeless coward, I believe     your resolve to protect the village is real. [04:52] Stark     Resolve, huh? [05:02] Frieren     How did it go? [05:05] Fern     I don't know. [05:07] Fern     I don't know, [05:11] Fern     but I think it'll be all right. [05:23] Fern     He's not here. [05:24] Frieren     I guess he ran. [05:26] Frieren     It's a shame. I had high hopes for him. [05:28] Frieren     We have no choice. [05:29] Frieren     Fern, we're going to play tag     with the dragon. [05:32] Fern     What? [05:36] Stark     Frieren. [05:40] Stark     You need me to keep it busy     for thirty seconds, right? [05:43] Frieren     You're late. [05:46] Stark     Will you promise me one thing? [05:48] Stark     If I die during the battle,     I want you to finish off the dragon. [05:53] Frieren     Very well. I promise. [05:56] Frieren     But why are you willing to go     that far for the villagers? [06:03] Frieren     What? [06:04] Stark     I just thought it was a strange question. [06:08] Stark     I've lived in this village for three years. [06:13] Frieren     That's not very long. [06:15] Stark     Like heck it isn't. [06:20] Stark     Okay. Let's do this. [06:23] Fern     Your hands are trembling. [06:25] Stark     I'm afraid, after all. [06:29] Stark     You don't have to laugh. [06:32] Frieren     You're just like Eisen. [06:34] Stark     My master? [06:37] (Flashback) Himmel     Now this is a powerful foe. [06:39] (Flashback) Frieren     Eisen, your hands are shaking.     Are you scared? [06:44] (Flashback) Eisen     Yeah. [06:45] (Flashback) Frieren     You'd admit it, just like that? [06:48] (Flashback) Eisen     Being afraid isn't a bad thing. [06:52] (Flashback) Eisen     It's my fear that brought me this far. [07:00] Frieren     You even tremble the same way. [07:08] Stark     I see. [07:14] Stark     My master was afraid, too. [07:19] Stark     All I need is resolve. [07:27] Frieren     He's entered the dragon's range. [07:30] Fern     It's not attacking. [07:32] Frieren     It's being cautious. [07:35] Frieren     I thought so. [07:45] Frieren     No wonder it stopped attacking the village. [07:49] Frieren     The dragon is a smart creature. [07:51] Frieren     It's not stupid enough to pick a fight     against a powerful opponent. [07:57] Frieren     Eisen didn't hit Stark for being weak, [08:00] Frieren     or because he was disappointed in him. [08:10] Eisen     We parted in anger. [08:14] (Flashback) Frieren     You hit him? [08:18] (Flashback) Eisen     My body moved on reflex. [08:22] (Flashback) Eisen     I'm sorry for what I did to him. [08:27] (Flashback) Eisen     I was afraid. [08:29] (Flashback) Eisen     I was afraid of him, Frieren. [08:34] (Flashback) Eisen     I couldn't believe it. [08:37] Eisen     My student will become     an incredible warrior. [09:17] Stark     Now! Fire! [09:23] Stark     Hey, why aren't you shooting at it? [09:25] Stark     I did exactly what you told me to do! [09:27] Stark     You expect me to fight it myself? [09:29] Stark     You can't be serious, you old hag! [09:32] Stark     You're just like my master after all! [09:33] Frieren     It's already dead. [09:35] Stark     What? [09:37] Frieren     An old hag, huh? [09:39] Fern     I'm scared of what she'll do later. [09:45] Stark     I... killed it? [09:50] Stark     I defeated the dragon by myself? [09:56] Frieren     Stark. [09:58] Frieren     You did well. [10:00] Frieren     You exceeded my expectations. Well done. [10:06] Frieren     Look at this mountain of treasure. Yippee! [10:09] Fern     We can't take it all with us. [10:16] Fern     No more than three items. [10:22] Stark     This is ridiculous. [10:24] Stark     You're interested in this stuff? [10:26] Frieren     This stuff is a mountain of treasure. [10:29] Stark     My master said that you made the     heroes' adventure ridiculous. [10:35] Frieren     Oh? [10:36] Stark     He said it was a ridiculous and fun journey. [10:45] (Flashback) Heiter     Wow, you actually made shaved ice! [10:49] (Flashback) Frieren     I told you it was worth searching for. [10:51] (Flashback) Heiter     Not only that, but it's     fluffy instead of icy! [10:55] (Flashback) Frieren     You're right. [10:56] (Flashback) Eisen     This is ridiculous. Should we     be wasting time on this? [11:00] (Flashback) Himmel     Why not? Our journey's only just begun. [11:05] (Flashback) Eisen     The Hero of the South, said to be     humanity's strongest fighter, [11:08] (Flashback) Eisen     was defeated by the Demon King's     Seven Sages of Destruction. [11:12] (Flashback) Eisen     We don't know if we'll make it back alive. [11:18] (Flashback) Himmel     Eisen, would you prefer a     difficult and painful journey? [11:24] (Flashback) Himmel     I'd rather enjoy a ridiculous and fun     journey I can laugh about when it's over. [11:35] (Flashback) Heiter     Look! It melts as soon as you touch it! [11:39] (Flashback) Frieren     Don't touch it. We're going to eat that. [11:41] (Flashback) Eisen     Ridiculous. [11:42] (Flashback) Heiter     By the way, Frieren, what about syrup? [11:45] (Flashback) Freiren     I don't have a spell to produce syrup. [11:47] (Flashback) Himmel     You don't? [11:48] (Flashback) Eisen     Truly ridiculous. [12:05] Freiren     Well? Can you see through them? [12:07] Fern     Yes, but it's not a very interesting spell. [12:12] Frieren     Sorry my body's not more interesting. [12:17] Stark     What? [12:19] Fern     So small. [12:20] Stark     I'm not small! [12:22] Frieren     So, Stark, what will you do now? [12:26] Frieren     You can go back to Eisen, you know. [12:30] Stark     My master told you to take me     with you, didn't he? [12:33] Stark     Besides... [12:35] Stark     I feel like going on a     ridiculous journey, too. SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero, in the fortress city of Waal,     located in Riegel Canyon in the central lands [12:50] Guard Captain     Monsters are active in the northern lands. [12:54] Guard Captain     No one's allowed to pass through     the checkpoint currently. [12:59] Fern     When will the checkpoint open again? [13:03] Guard Captain     Dunno. [13:04] Guard Captain     At the very least, we've let none     through since I was posted here, [13:07] Guard Captain     monsters and people alike. [13:12] Guard     Excuse me. [13:14] Guard     Sir, the castellan would like to see you. [13:17] Guard Captain     I'll be right there. [13:19] Guard Captain     Listen here, adventurers. [13:21] Guard Captain     Don't cause any trouble in this town. [13:30] Fern     That wasn't a very warm welcome. [13:33] Frieren     You're right. He's a good guard. [13:36] Frieren     Harsh on outsiders, [13:39] Frieren     as town guards should be. [13:45] Frieren     Anyway, this city seems safe. [13:50] Frieren     We'll wait here for a while. [13:53] Frieren     It'll be a good opportunity     to take our time studying magic. [13:56] Frieren     Once we drop our things off at the inn,     I'm going to the magic shops. [14:03] Frieren     What? The checkpoint's closed.     It's not like we have a choice. [14:08] Frieren     Go on. You're free to go. [14:10] Frieren     I'm going to get us a room at the inn. [14:15] Stark     Wanna get something to eat? [14:18] Stark     Right. I'll go by myself. [14:21] Stark     Scary... [14:27] Villager A     I heard the sea routes have     been shut down recently, too. [14:31] Villager B     The northern lands' army     plans to defeat them, [14:35] Villager B     but it'll be at least two years     until the checkpoint opens. [14:39] Villager B     Business is at a standstill. [14:44] Stark     I haven't had this in forever. [14:46] Stark     The jumbo-berry special. [14:49] Stark     I was just a kid when I came here before,     so I could hardly finish it. [14:53] Stark     I had to split it with my master. [14:56] Stark     I don't remember it being     this small, though. [14:59] Barkeep     It seems that way because     you're all grown up now. [15:04] Stark     I see. I've gotten bigger, huh? [15:09] Stark     Everything seemed so big when I was a kid. [15:13] Stark     Even my master's back that     once looked so broad [15:16] Stark     started looking small at some point. [15:20] Barkeep     Eisen's getting up there in age. [15:22] Barkeep     I hope you're being a dutiful student. [15:27] Stark     That's what I'm doing right now. [15:30] Stark     Really, though, was it always this small? [15:32] Master     The passage of time is cruel. [15:41] Stark     What? Got a problem? [15:42] Stark     I bought it with my own money. [15:45] Fern     Excuse me. Could I get a glass of milk? [15:47] Barkeep     Sure thing. [15:50] Stark     What? Why are you mad? [15:55] Fern     Mr. Stark. [15:56] Stark     Fine. You can have half. [15:58] Fern     That's not what I was going to say. [16:00] Fern     What if I told you we might have to     wait more than two years in this city? [16:05] Stark     What? No, thanks. [16:07] Fern     Right? I don't want to, either. [16:09] Stark     Uh, yeah. [16:11] Stark     What's her deal? [16:12] Fern     I'm relieved. You're normal. [16:16] Stark     Hey, did I do something to offend you? [16:21] Stark     A way through the checkpoint? [16:24] Stark     Sure, I'll help you look for one. [16:27] Fern     Thank you. [16:29] Stark     Would it be possible to fly over it? [16:34] Fern     The border with the northern lands [16:36] Fern     is protected by a powerful barrier that     extends to maximum flying altitude. [16:39] Fern     It can't be crossed. [16:41] Stark     That makes sense. Otherwise flying     monsters would get right through. [16:46] Stark     Then we have no choice.     We'll hit up the merchants' guild. [16:50] Stark     They might at least be trading. [17:04] Fern     Trade has been shut down completely. [17:07] Fern     If guarded caravans aren't allowed through, [17:09] Fern     then the northern lands     must be quite dangerous. [17:13] Fern     We'll have to wait until     the situation settles down. [17:17] Stark     No, let's hit up the black market     and thieves' guild first. [17:23] Fern     Isn't that a bit dangerous? [17:25] Stark     We'll be fine. People think I look pretty     strong, and I'm a decent bluffer. [17:32] Fern     And you've got the face of a scoundrel. [17:33] Stark     Shut up. [17:53] Stark     Well, that didn't work. [17:55] Stark     I shouldn't be surprised. They're     basically fighting a defensive battle. [17:59] Stark     There's nothing we can do     if the gates won't open. [18:02] Stark     Well, we've got nothing to lose.     Let's visit the guard station next. [18:09] Stark     What? [18:10] Fern     I was just thinking you're being     especially cooperative. [18:15] Stark     This was your idea. [18:17] Stark     I thought you didn't want to wait. [18:20] Fern     You seem more desperate than me. [18:25] Stark     Well, I don't have a lot of time. [18:29] Fern     What do you mean? [18:33] Stark     The view from here is nice, isn't it? [18:35] Stark     You can see the north side clearly. [18:38] Stark     When I was little,     my master brought me here. [18:45] (Flashback) Eisen     We departed for the     northern lands from this city. [18:50] (Flashback) Young Stark     What was your journey like, Master? [18:53] (Flashback) Eisen     You wanna know? Back then, we... [18:57] Stark     Normally he hardly spoke about himself, [19:01] Stark     but he happily told me about     the heroes' adventure. [19:06] Stark     Across his long life, [19:08] Stark     nothing was more important to him     than that ten-year adventure. [19:14] Stark     I'm sure the same is true for Frieren. [19:18] Fern     I wonder. [19:20] Stark     But he's too old to travel now. [19:25] Stark     And he told you to take me with you. [19:30] Stark     So I need to experience lots of     ridiculous and fun adventures in his place [19:37] Stark     and bring back stories to tell him. [19:42] Stark     It's all I can do to repay my debt to him. [19:46] Stark     If I take too long, my master will die. [19:53] Fern     Then we can't allow ourselves     to be stopped here. [19:57] Stark     I bet he's still got plenty     of years left, though. [20:15] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what are you doing here? [20:19] Frieren     Quiet. [20:22] Frieren     I'm being pursued. [20:31] Stark     Wh-What did you even do? [20:34] Frieren     I don't know. [20:35] Frieren     I was just visiting various     magic shops, and then... [20:42] Guard Captain     I'm sorry, Ms. Frieren! [20:45] Guard Captain     Please forgive me! [20:48] Frieren     Wait. I don't like where this is going. [20:53] Castellan     It seems the guard captain was rude to you. [20:58] Castellan     As the castellan of this city,     I offer my apologies. [21:02] Frieren     It doesn't bother me. He was     just doing his job as a guard. [21:07] Frieren     I'm actually not in any kind of hurry.     I'm taking my time— [21:10] Castellan     You plan to travel north again, don't you? [21:15] Castellan     I hear the northern lands are currently     engaged in an endless conflict [21:18] Castellan     with the remnants of the Demon King's forces. [21:21] Castellan     You must be concerned about     the present situation. [21:24] Castellan     Truly, you have the kindness of a hero. [21:28] Castellan     The people of the northern lands     will be delighted as well. [21:32] Castellan     Please feel free to pass     through the checkpoint. [21:48] Fern     I can't believe we're getting      through this easily. [21:51] Fern     Shouldn't we have told them     who you were from the start? [21:56] Frieren     I didn't think there was any point. [21:59] Frieren     I wanted to take my time, anyway. [22:01] Frieren     And I don't really like this kind of thing. [22:06] Frieren     It's an unsettling sight. [22:09] Stark     I'm glad I got to see it, though. [22:20] Stark     This must be how my master     departed for the north, too. [22:36] Frieren     You're right. [22:38] Frieren     Aw, darn. I wanted to do     more magical research. [22:43] Fern     You're still saying that? [22:44] Stark     We went through a lot of trouble     after that, you know. Right? [22:48] Fern     Yes. [24:20] Demon Child     It hurts... [24:20] Frieren     Humans love to make a fuss. [24:20] Granat     He died in battle against     Aura ten years ago. [24:21] Demon Child     Mom... [24:22] Traveler     The Liberation Festival is tonight. [24:24] Villager     Then we'd be no different from the demons. [24:24] Stark     They're capable of speech. [24:25] Lugner     I'm curious about that mage. [24:26] Fern     What a pain in the rear... SIGN    Episode 7                                        Like a Fairy Tale [24:27] Eisen     It's like a fairy tale.

[00:05] (Flashback) Freiren     They say books attributed     to Flamme are never real. [00:09] (Flashback) Freiren     Only forgeries have been found until now. [00:13] (Flashback) Frieren     This is probably the best imitation     I've seen so far, though. [00:18] (Flashback) Frieren     Not bad as a reward for defeating monsters. [00:21] (Flashback) Himmel     I really don't understand the appeal. [00:24] (Flashback) Heiter     That said, when all you see are fakes, [00:27] (Flashback) Heiter     you start to doubt whether the     genuine article ever existed at all. [00:31] (Flashback) Eisen     Flamme, the founder of humanity's magic,     is like a fairy tale herself. [00:38] (Flashback) Frieren     A fairy tale, huh? [00:41] (Flashback) Frieren     I suppose. It's been long enough since then. [00:46] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm probably the only one     who remembers her face. [01:00] Freiren     It's morning. [01:06] Fern     Ms. Frieren woke up early! [01:09] Stark     Is that so impressive? [01:11] Fern     Of course it is. [01:14] Fern     We must be sure to praise her. [01:24] Stark     What are we doing? SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 7: Like a Fairy Tale SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     on Eng Road, located in the northern lands [03:11] Traveler     Thank you. [03:13] Traveler     With the road blocked,     I didn't know what I was going to do. [03:24] Stark     Hey, is this really necessary? [03:28] Frieren     You're not happy about it?     The reward isn't bad. [03:31] Stark     No, I mean, couldn't you just use magic     to carry the cart to the other side? [03:36] Freiren     That wouldn't help the     people who come after us. [03:39] Frieren     That's what Fern said, anyway. [03:42] Frieren     You're rather selfish, Stark. [03:45] Stark     That's rich, coming from you. [03:51] Traveler     Thank you. [03:52] Stark     Hey, thanks. [04:01] Stark     By the way, why was there     a landslide in just this area? [04:06] Villager     The northern lands have been     fighting demons here and there, too. [04:12] Villager     This landslide was probably     caused by one such skirmish. [04:16] Stark     The scars of battle, huh? [04:23] Fern     Mr. Stark, could you take a break     from that to help me over here? [04:31] Fern     Mr. Stark? [04:33] Stark     Hey, could you stop calling me Mr. Stark? [04:38] Stark     It weirds me out.     We're not that different in age. [04:44] Fern     I see. Very well. [04:49] Fern     Stark, quit wasting time     and help me already. Hurry up. [04:52] Stark     So rude! [04:54] Stark     I meant more like, can't you speak to me     in a more casual or familiar way? [05:00] Fern     I see. [05:01] Stark     And can't you be friendlier, too?     I'm sensitive, okay? [05:06] Fern     What a pain in the rear. [05:07] Stark     What'd you call me?! [05:09] Frieren     Are you making progress over there? [05:12] Fern     Let's hurry, Mr. Stark. [05:16] Stark     Okay. [05:19] Traveler     Thank you so much. [05:22] Traveler     If you'd like, I can show you     the way to the town. [05:26] Traveler     An elf, huh? [05:29] Traveler     I've lived many years, but this     is my first time seeing one. [05:33] Frieren     I suppose we're something of a rarity. [05:35] Fern     Come to think of it, I've never     seen an elf besides you. [05:40] Frieren     There aren't very many of us. [05:43] Frieren     I've only seen my own kind a handful of times. [05:48] Frieren     Elves may live a long time, [05:51] Frieren     but across the board, we lack romantic     feelings and reproductive instincts. [05:57] Frieren     We're quietly going extinct. [06:00] Frieren     The last time I met a fellow elf     was more than 400 years ago. [06:05] Frieren     Perhaps we're closer     to the end than I thought. [06:16] Fern     We can see the town now. [06:19] Fern     There's a line of wagons. [06:21] Stark     Those look like merchants. [06:23] Traveler     The Liberation Festival is tonight. [06:27] Traveler     Today's the day Himmel     and his party of heroes [06:30] Traveler     once defeated the demons who ruled this land. [06:36] Frieren     Is that right? [06:39] Traveler     That's what the Liberation     Festival commemorates. [06:43] Traveler     The statues of Mr. Himmel and his companions     in the central plaza are decorated, [06:48] Traveler     and the entire town     throws a grand celebration. [06:52] Frieren     Humans love to make a fuss. [06:54] Frieren     They hold festivals for everything. [06:57] Traveler     It's been more than eighty years     since the demons were defeated. [07:03] Traveler     That's more than enough time for something     to pass from human memory. [07:10] Traveler     But on this day, everyone     remembers the party of heroes. [07:21] (Flashback) Himmel     Nice work. [07:24] (Flashback) Eisen     Five retakes, huh? [07:26] (Flashback) Heiter     We finished sooner than usual this time. [07:29] (Flashback) Frieren     You're always getting statues made, Himmel. [07:33] (Flashback) Himmel     Because I want everyone to remember us. [07:37] (Flashback) Himmel     Unlike you, we don't live that long. [07:42] (Flashback) Himmel     I need future generations to     remember how handsome I was. [07:46] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm heading back to the inn. [07:49] (Flashback) Himmel     But I guess the biggest reason [07:53] (Flashback) Himmel     is so you won't be alone in the future. [08:00] (Flashback) Frieren     What does that mean? [08:02] (Flashback) Himmel     We're not fairy tales. [08:04] (Flashback) Himmel     We really existed. [08:13] Traveler     Every year, we celebrate the great deeds     accomplished by the party of heroes. [08:21] Traveler     Come to think of it, you look a lot [08:24] Traveler     like the statue of Ms. Frieren     from that very party. [08:29] Frieren     Will they still be doing this     a hundred years from now? [08:33] Traveler     Yes, as long as this town still stands. [08:36] Frieren     How about a thousand? [08:39] Traveler     Well, I don't know. [08:48] Frieren     Shall we go? [08:51] Frieren     We're heading far to the north. [08:54] Stark     Come to think of it, you haven't     told me your destination yet. [08:59] Stark     Where are we going? [09:03] Frieren     Heaven. [09:05] Stark     Now that sounds fun. SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in Graf Granat's domain, located in the northern lands [09:24] Fern     There are a lot of guards here. [09:27] Fern     Do you suppose something happened? [09:30] Stark     Let's decide who's going shopping. [09:40] Fern     Ms. Frieren, we're in a town. [09:42] Frieren     I sense demons. [09:43] Fern     What? [09:55] Guard A     Hey, you! What are you doing?! [10:05] Lügner     Graf Granat, did you put her up to this? [10:10] Granat     Lord Lügner, while it's true     I despise you and wish you dead, [10:16] Granat     I'm not foolish enough to openly attack     peace envoys in the middle of town. [10:22] Fern     Peace envoys? [10:24] Granat     They're probably adventurers     who don't know what's going on. [10:29] Lügner     If you say so. [10:34] Lügner     There's bloodlust in those calm, cold eyes. [10:40] Lügner     Even the townsfolk who hate us     look upon me as a person, [10:46] Lügner     even as they tremble in fear. [10:50] Lügner     But you look at me as     though I'm a wild beast. [10:56] Frieren     Aren't you? [10:58] Freiren     You demons are wild beasts who     imitate human speech [11:02] Freiren     but can't be communicated with. [11:06] Granat     Throw her in the dungeon     beneath the mansion. [11:08] Guard     Yes, milord. [11:12] Stark     Huh? [11:16] Stark     Hey! [11:32] Frieren     I'm bored. [11:38] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [11:40] Stark     They said to reflect on your     actions for two or three years. [11:43] Frieren     That's shorter than I expected. [11:45] Frieren     Could you bring me some grimoires later? [11:49] Fern     You really do love to waste time. [11:54] Frieren     I'm not here because I want to be. [11:57] Frieren     So, what did he mean when he referred     to those demons as peace envoys? [12:02] Fern     I looked into it while shopping. [12:05] Fern     You know of Aura the Guillotine, don't you? [12:08] Frieren     She's one of the Seven Sages of Destruction     who served the Demon King. [12:13] Frieren     She lost most of her followers     fighting against us. [12:17] Frieren     Last I heard, her whereabouts were unknown. [12:19] Frieren     Did something happen recently? [12:21] Fern     Aura regained her power 28 years ago. [12:26] Fern     Her forces have been embroiled in battle     with this town for a long time, [12:31] Fern     but they've become exhausted     by the fruitless fighting, [12:34] Fern     so they're suing for peace. [12:37] Frieren     So that's why they were allowed in as envoys. [12:40] Frieren     That was a bad move. [12:42] Frieren     Trying to talk to demons is pointless. [12:46] Stark     It can't be pointless. [12:48] Stark     They're capable of speech. [12:49] Stark     Surely the best option would be     to resolve things by talking them out? [12:53] Frieren     They can't resolve things that way.     That's why it's pointless. [12:58] Frieren     Demons are man-eating monsters. [13:01] Frieren     Have you ever wondered why they     speak the same language as humans? [13:10] (Flashback) Villagers     Hero, you must slay the fiend! [13:18] (Flashback) Himmel     It's only a child. [13:19] (Flashback) Mother     So what? That thing ate our daughter! [13:31] (Flashback) Demon Child     It hurts... [13:35] (Flashback) Demon Child     It hurts, Mom... [13:46] (Flashback) Frieren     Enough. I'll do it. [13:49] (Flashback) Village Chief     Then we'd be no different from the demons. [13:54] (Flashback) Village Chief     It's not as though they have to     eat humans to survive, right? [13:59] (Flashback) Village Chief     Why don't we give her     the opportunity to atone? [14:03] (Flashback) Father     Chief... [14:05] (Flashback) Mother     You can't be serious! [14:07] (Flashback) Mother     Give us back our daughter! [14:15] (Flashback) Village Chief     I'll tend your wounds at my home. [14:18] (Flashback) Village Chief     I've been looking for someone     to help on the farm. [14:24] (Flashback) Frieren     Himmel, you'll regret not     killing it now. It's a— [14:30] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, we're capable of speech     with each other. [14:34] (Flashback) Himmel     We'll be staying in this village anyway. [14:36] (Flashback) Himmel     Why don't we see how it goes? [14:41] (Flashback) Frieren     Fine. [15:16] (Flashback) Himmel     Why did you kill the village chief? [15:23] (Flashback) Mother     We should've killed it back then. [15:28] (Flashback) Demon Child     There it is again. [15:32] (Flashback) Demon Child     Every day I felt your desire to kill me. [15:37] (Flashback) Demon Child     I just want to live in peace. [15:41] (Flashback) Demon Child     So I brought you a replacement     for the daughter I ate. [15:50] (Flashback) Himmel     That's the village chief's daughter. [15:53] (Flashback) Demon Child     But the village chief is gone now. [16:02] (Flashback) Demon Child     It seems I've made a mistake somehow. [16:07] (Flashback) Demon Child     Then I have no choice.     I'm taking this child hostage. [16:18] (Flashback) Frieren     You won't stop me again, will you? [16:21] (Flashback) Himmel     No. [16:23] (Flashback) Demon Child     Mom... [16:31] (Flashback) Frieren     "Mom" again? [16:33] (Flashback) Frieren     Like monsters, demons don't raise their young. [16:37] (Flashback) Frieren     They spend most of their time     after birth living in solitude. [16:43] (Flashback) Frieren     You're solitary creatures by nature.     You have no concept of family. [16:50] (Flashback) Frieren     So why do you use the word "mom"? [16:55] (Flashback) Demon Child     Because it stops you from killing us. [17:00] (Flashback) Demon Child     A wonderful, magical word... [17:08] Frieren     For them, words are a means     of deceiving humans. [17:13] Frieren     Flamme the Legendary Mage defined     monsters capable of speech as demons. [17:18] Frieren     They're descended from     monsters who cried "help" [17:22] Frieren     from the shadows to lure humans to them. [17:32] Frieren     Don't forget to bring me grimoires. [17:39] Draht     Graf Granat is late. [17:41] Lügner     A human diplomatic tactic. [17:45] Lügner     In any case, I'm curious about that mage. [17:50] Lügner     I know her face from somewhere. [17:54] Lügner     Wild beasts who can't be     communicated with, huh? [17:58] Lügner     That's an accurate description. [18:01] Lügner     She's the only one in this town who     understands the true nature of us demons. [18:07] Lügner     There's only one reason that predators [18:09] Lügner     who prey on humans would     speak the human language. [18:13] Frieren     They speak not to understand us     but to deceive us. [18:19] Frieren     This town won't be around much longer. [18:22] Frieren     I should take advantage of     the confusion to escape. [18:33] Lügner     What is this? [18:35] Granat     My son's room. [18:41] Granat     He was a good boy. [18:43] Granat     He'd often boast about how he'd take over     the family soon so I could take it easy. [18:57] Granat     His Majesty gave him this sword     when he fought in his presence. [19:01] Lügner     Where is your son now? [19:07] Granat     He died in battle against     Aura ten years ago. [19:19] Granat     All that came home to me was his sword. [19:22] Granat     Lügner! [19:25] Granat     I only invited you here to avenge my son. [19:30] Granat     I'm going to kill all of you     envoys here and now. [19:33] Granat     Your peace means nothing to me! [19:46] Lügner     This room is quite clean. [19:50] Lügner     I'm sure you've been keeping it     just as it was ten years ago. [19:54] Granat     So what if I have? [19:57] Lügner     I've kept my father's room the same     since you killed him, too. [20:04] Lügner     Why don't we put an end     to this, Graf Granat? [20:08] Lügner     Or shall we continue to shed each other's     blood and cause even more grief? [20:17] Lügner     We're capable of speech with each other. [20:19] Lügner     Please grant us the opportunity     to settle this with discussion. [20:33] Granat     Show them to the guestroom. [20:41] Granat     I'll consider it. [20:52] Linie     Lord Lügner, [20:53] Linie     what is a "father"? [20:56] Lügner     Who knows? [21:07] Lügner     Graf Granat resents us, but he     seems to be an empathetic man. [21:15] Lügner     If we win him over, we may     be able to convince him [21:18] Lügner     to lower this town's defensive     barrier in the name of peace. [21:22] Lügner     Then Lady Aura's forces will raze this town. [21:30] Lügner     By the way, Linie, I don't see Draht. [21:35] Linie     He said he was off to eliminate an obstacle. [21:39] Lügner     He's acting rashly. [21:41] Lügner     What am I to do with that     hot-blooded youngster? [21:47] Guard B     Lord Draht, you should not be here. [21:52] Guard B     Please return to the guest— [22:05] Frieren     Who are you? Visiting hours are over. [22:11] Draht     I am Draht, one of Aura the     Guillotine's executioners. [22:16] Draht     I am here to kill you. [22:19] Frieren     I see. Done pretending to negotiate? [22:23] Draht     We're just getting started. [22:25] Frieren     Uh-huh. [22:27] Draht     According to Lord Lügner,     this girl is the only obstacle in our way. [22:32] Draht     If I kill her, and we win over Graf Granat,     this town will fall easily. [22:40] Frieren     Just so you know, I'm strong. [22:44] Draht     Stronger than me? [22:46] Frieren     Stronger than Aura the Guillotine. [24:20] Linie     Who is that mage? [24:20] Granat     Speaking so casually to me     is a serious crime in this town... [24:21] Stark     We don't stand a chance against them. [24:22] Fern     You're a guard-killer who should be executed. [24:23] Frieren     I hate fighting powerful opponents, too. [24:24] Draht     This fight is already over. [24:25] Lügner     She slew more demons     than anyone else in history.

[00:56] Frieren     Magical wire, huh?     It's an interesting spell. [01:00] Draht     So you saved yourself from decapitation     by concentrating mana around your neck. [01:04] Draht     You're level-headed. [01:06] Draht     A common mage would've lost her head     without even realizing what had happened. [01:11] Draht     But this wire is among the     strongest of demonkind's spells. [01:15] Draht     Humanity's magic doesn't     stand a chance against it. [01:20] Draht     I'll cut through both     your neck and your mana. [01:25] Frieren     You're right. I doubt I can     do anything about this wire. [01:31] Frieren     That's enough to convince you you've won? [01:34] Frieren     Demons these days are hopeless. [01:36] Frieren     They lack actual battle experience. [01:44] Draht     This mage... [01:46] Draht     She took my arm! [01:49] Draht     You bitch— [01:55] Draht     Wait! Let's talk this— [02:07] Frieren     That's one down. [02:12] Frieren     If I report this attack to the graf and kill     the other two, surely he'll pardon me. [02:29] Frieren     The guard is dead. SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [04:10] Fern     This is delicious. [04:15] Stark     My master said any town that serves     tasty food is a good, peaceful town. [04:19] Child     Wait! [04:21] Stark     That must be true of this town, too. [04:29] Fern     Mr. Stark. [04:31] Stark     You can't have any. [04:33] Fern     Let's directly petition Graf Granat     to release Ms. Frieren. [04:40] Fern     I think it's only a matter of time     until harm comes to this town. [04:45] Fern     We should release Ms. Frieren from the     dungeon and have her defeat the demons. [04:51] Stark     That's our only option after all, huh? [04:54] Stark     We wouldn't stand a chance against them. [04:57] Stark     Especially not that Lügner guy.     He's unbelievably strong. [05:02] Stark     He was only looking at Frieren. [05:05] Stark     Even though we were standing there     next to him with the guards, [05:09] Stark     he was only looking at Frieren. [05:14] Stark     It's because he thinks he     can kill us at any time. [05:18] Stark     My hands still haven't stopped shaking. [05:27] Stark     See? I even spilled my drink     so it looks like I wet myself. [05:31] Stark     That's just how strong he is. [05:34] Fern     You should wipe that up. Let's go. [05:38] Stark     Lügner and his guys are with the graf. [05:42] Stark     Worst case, a fight will break out. [05:44] Fern     That wouldn't stop the party     of heroes from going. [05:52] Stark     You're right. [05:53] Stark     If I lost my nerve here, I'd never     be able to face my master again. [05:59] Stark     Let's go. [06:01] Fern     You can keep the handkerchief. [06:03] Stark     Huh? [06:09] Fern     What's the matter? [06:11] Stark     I'm paralyzed with fear. [06:18] Linie     I'm no longer detecting Draht's magic. [06:23] Lügner     He must be dead. [06:25] Linie     What an idiot. He underestimated her. [06:30] Lügner     Underestimated her? [06:32] Lügner     We are the right-hand men of     Lady Aura. Her executioners. [06:37] Lügner     You think we'd die from merely     underestimating someone? [06:42] Linie     Who is that mage? [06:51] Granat     Sorry I kept you waiting. [06:55] Granat     The mage I captured has escaped. [06:58] Granat     The soldier guarding her cell was beheaded. [07:01] Lügner     That can't be good. [07:03] Lügner     We'll help you look for her. [07:05] Lügner     Linie is skilled at locating magic— [07:07] Granat     No, that's all right. [07:11] Granat     By the way, one of your men     seems to be missing. [07:16] Lügner     He's in the privy. He'll be back soon. [07:19] Granat     Without asking a servant for directions? [07:25] Granat     Even I can tell she's a skilled mage. [07:30] Granat     But she allowed my guards     to seize her without a fight. [07:34] Granat     She understands the seriousness     of killing a guard. [07:39] Granat     Lord Lügner, I'll ask you one last time. [07:47] Granat     Where is your man? [07:59] Lügner     Honestly. [08:07] Lügner     That idiot Draht. [08:19] Lügner     He ruined everything. [08:36] Lügner     It's strange, though. [08:39] Lügner     Now that violence has become the only way     to resolve this mess, I'm overjoyed. [08:49] Lügner     Graf Granat, what are words? [08:53] Lügner     How do they differ from swords? [08:56] Lügner     No matter what we use, the weak die. [09:03] Lügner     Just like this sword's former owner. [09:06] Granat     Lügner! [09:18] Lügner     In the end, we are wild beasts. [09:22] Lügner     Don't worry. I won't kill you. [09:27] Lügner     You're going to help us remove     this town's defensive barrier. [09:37] Stark     We should be arriving at     the graf's mansion soon. [09:43] Fern     Ms. Frieren? [09:49] Fern     You're Ms. Frieren, aren't you? [09:58] Stark     What are you doing here? [10:01] Fern     Don't tell me you broke out of the dungeon. [10:04] Frieren     I didn't have a choice. [10:07] Frieren     Some demon named Draht     attacked me while I was in there. [10:11] Frieren     I defeated him, [10:14] Frieren     but when demons die, they turn into     mana particles and disappear. [10:18] Fern     What do you mean by that? [10:20] Frieren     He'd already killed the dungeon guard. [10:25] Frieren     The only ones down there were a guard [10:27] Frieren     who had been beheaded using     magical wire and me, a mage. [10:33] Frieren     How would you read that situation? [10:36] Fern     That you're a guard-killer     who should be executed. [10:39] Frieren     Right? This is becoming a pain.     I'm leaving town. [10:43] Fern     Wait. [10:45] Fern     If you leave, the remaining     demons will run wild. [10:48] Fern     Are you really going to abandon this town? [10:52] Frieren     Why don't you two defeat them? [10:54] Fern     You make it sound so easy. [10:57] Stark     We don't stand a chance against them. [11:01] Frieren     You're not going to fight them     just because they're strong? [11:07] Frieren     Besides, I don't think you're     weaker than them at all. [11:16] Stark     Wait! [11:18] Stark     We'll fight, okay? At least help us! [11:21] Stark     I'm begging you! [11:25] Stark     Peek. [11:27] Stark     Hey, wait! [11:29] Stark     Please, Frieren! [11:31] Fern     You don't know when to give up,     do you? Let's steel ourselves. [11:35] Stark     But... it's impossible... [11:39] Fern     Don't be childish. [11:50] Frieren     About ten kilometers from town... [11:53] Frieren     I sense a great deal of mana. [11:55] Frieren     We're being observed. [12:16] Frieren     Aura the Guillotine, one of the     Seven Sages of Destruction. [12:21] Frieren     I hate fighting powerful opponents, too. [12:28] Frieren     All the more reason to finish this quickly. [13:23] Stark     Should we be sneaking     into the mansion like this? [13:27] Fern     Would you rather tell the gate guards     that we're here to kill the peace envoys? [13:49] Stark     It's oddly quiet. [14:00] Lügner     I love magic. [14:04] Lügner     Just as Qual, the Elder Sage of Corruption, [14:08] Lügner     spent most of his life     developing a killing spell... [14:17] Lügner     demons dedicate the entirety of our long     lives to researching a single kind of magic. [14:25] Lügner     We develop our research     daily over years and years. [14:30] Lügner     Ten years from now, our     magics will be even greater, [14:34] Lügner     and we will become even stronger. [14:41] Lügner     But magic is a strange thing. [14:46] Lügner     Flamme the Legendary Mage's     defensive barrier has prevented demons [14:52] Lügner     from invading and protected this town. [15:18] Lügner     Sometimes a spell cast by a genius a thousand     years ago outmatches spells of the present. [15:28] Lügner     I despise geniuses. [15:31] Lügner     They lack the beauty of accumulated effort. [15:36] Lügner     The Granat family has been entrusted with     maintaining the barrier for generations. [15:42] Lügner     If you could allow us into this town,     then there must be a way to control it. [15:50] Lügner     Teach it to me. [15:57] Lügner     I'll give you some time. [16:02] Lügner     Consider it carefully. [16:05] Lügner     Making someone wait is an effective     diplomatic strategy for humans as well. [16:11] Lügner     If you won't talk, then all that     awaits you is further torture. [16:25] Lügner     There must be a grimoire     related to the barrier somewhere. [16:28] Lügner     Search the bedroom. I'll search the study. [16:45] Granat     You're just that adventurer kid     from this afternoon. [16:49] Granat     I thought my son had come for me. [16:52] Stark     You look awful.     Those demons did this to you? [16:58] Stark     I'll release you. [17:05] Granat     You're trembling. [17:06] Stark     Is that a problem? [17:08] Granat     No. It's valiant. [17:11] Granat     My dead son was trembling     before he headed off to battle, too. [17:20] Stark     Damn it. I can't cut the rope. [17:22] Stark     Is it magical? [17:24] Granat     Don't worry about me.     I'm done for either way. [17:29] Granat     Evacuating the townsfolk is more important. [17:31] Stark     They're not gonna listen without you. [17:36] Granat     The Granat family crest hangs from my neck. [17:41] Granat     Show this to the guards,     and they'll do whatever you say. [17:46] Granat     And speaking so casually to me     is a serious crime in this town, brat. [17:59] Granat     I know. Given the circumstances,     I'll overlook this offense. [18:03] Granat     Now go. [18:05] Stark     I see. [18:07] Stark     Sorry, old man. [18:10] Stark     I'm gonna break this     expensive-looking chair. [18:14] Stark     I can't afford to replace it. [18:18] Linie     Lord Lügner, a rat. [18:23] Lügner     Graf Granat, do you know him? [18:26] Granat     No. He's one of the adventurers     from this afternoon. [18:30] Granat     He must've come to petition me directly [18:33] Granat     without realizing the mage     he was with escaped. [18:37] Granat     What a stupid kid. [18:39] Lügner     I see. [18:41] Stark     Again. [18:43] Lügner     You can leave, boy. [18:45] Lügner     I'll let you live. [18:47] Stark     He's doing it again. [18:50] Stark     He's not even looking at me. [18:54] Lügner     What's the matter? Move. [18:56] Lügner     If you get in my way, I'll kill you. [19:03] Stark     Go ahead and try! [19:08] Lügner     He's fast. [19:11] Lügner     But you're only human. [19:25] Lügner     You protected your vitals.     Your reflexes aren't bad. [19:29] Lügner     That said, the young are rash,     whether they're humans or demons— [19:33] Lügner     thoughtless and reckless. [19:37] Lügner     But you challenged me alone.     I commend your valor. [19:42] Stark     Alone? [19:43] Stark     I see. You can't detect her after all. [19:48] Lügner     What? [19:49] Stark     Fern, I created the opening you asked for. [19:53] Linie     Lord Lügner, I'm sensing a mage! [20:11] Lügner     Impossible. [20:12] Lügner     A mere human mage evaded Linie's detection? [20:19] Lügner     And this spell... [20:25] Linie     Lord Lügner, let me handle this. [20:27] Lügner     Don't. [20:29] Lügner     Girl, what is that spell? [20:33] Fern     Ordinary offensive magic. [20:35] Fern     I believe it's known as Zoltraak     in your magic system. [20:40] Lügner     This is Zoltraak? [20:43] Lügner     Don't be absurd. [20:45] Lügner     Demonkind overcame Zoltraak     half a century ago. [20:51] Lügner     Who taught you this spell? [20:54] Fern     You're trying to buy time, aren't you? [20:57] Fern     I should finish you now. [20:59] Linie     I won't allow it. [21:02] Stark     Fern! [21:04] Stark     The graf is gravely injured. [21:06] Stark     We don't have time to fight. [21:08] Stark     Let's retreat! [21:10] Fern     Very well. [21:21] Lügner     We'll go after them once     I've stopped my bleeding. [21:24] Lügner     You kill the warrior. [21:28] Lügner     My blood is on those two. [21:32] Lügner     We won't lose them. [21:34] Linie     You needn't fight them yourself, Lord Lügner. [21:38] Linie     I can handle the mage as well. [21:40] Lügner     If you'd been struck by that spell,     it would've killed you. [21:46] Lügner     That spell has been modified     to specialize in killing demons. [21:52] Lügner     It can hardly be called Zoltraak anymore. [21:58] Lügner     It's a demon-killing spell. [22:02] Lügner     The way that girl moved     reminds me of another mage. [22:06] Lügner     And I've been struck by     that same magic once before. [22:20] Lügner     I see. [22:24] Lügner     I remember now. [22:26] Lügner     It was Frieren. [22:30] Lügner     The mage who contributed significantly     to humanity's analysis of Zoltraak [22:35] Lügner     and slew more demons     than anyone else in history.

[03:18] Granat     When this town was attacked by demons     during my grandfather's rule, [03:23] Granat     they were the ones who drove them off. [03:26] Granat     They faced the same enemy as we do now. [03:27] Granat     It was Aura, one of the     Seven Sages of Destruction. [03:33] Frieren     It's been a while, Aura. [03:36] Aura     Indeed, Frieren. About eighty years, I'd say. [03:44] Frieren     You're heading to the town     up ahead, aren't you? [03:48] Frieren     I'd appreciate it if you turned back. [03:51] Aura     No. [03:53] Frieren     Why not? [04:14] Aura     Because I have an overwhelming advantage. [04:19] Frieren     Oh? [04:23] Frieren     You have more puppets than before. [04:26] Frieren     Demon magic must be unbelievably     powerful to control this many. [04:31] Frieren     Humanity's magic could never     dream of reaching such heights. [04:37] Frieren     But your magic couldn't be more disgusting. [04:40] Frieren     It makes me want to puke. [04:42] Aura     That's not a nice thing to say. [04:44] Aura     It took a lot of work to gather this many. [04:56] Frieren     I recognize some of those suits of armor. [05:00] Frieren     Aura, it seems I must     kill you here after all. [05:08] Granat     The Scales of Obedience. [05:11] Granat     It's the reason we haven't been able     to defeat Aura in all these years. [05:16] Granat     Her magic allows her to force     others to obey her will. [05:23] Granat     The magics of the Seven Sages of Destruction [05:25] Granat     are beyond human knowledge and reason. [05:29] Granat     Aura places her own soul     and that of her target on the scales [05:33] Granat     and weighs the magnitude of     their mana against each other. [05:36] Granat     The one with greater mana     gains control of the other, [05:40] Granat     turning them into a puppet for all eternity—     until their body withers to dust. [05:49] Granat     It's a risky spell, but that's     what makes it powerful. [05:53] Granat     And in the hands of someone with mana     as tremendous as Aura, it's unbeatable. [05:58] Fern     Is there no way to counter it? [06:02] Granat     Though the weight of Aura's mana     is enough to fully tip the scales, [06:06] Granat     the scales themselves do judge fairly. [06:09] Granat     If a soul with greater mana than Aura's     were to be placed on the scales, [06:14] Granat     Aura could be defeated. [06:18] Granat     But they say that hasn't happened     once in the five hundred years [06:24] Granat     since Aura became a Sage of Destruction. [06:27] Fern     Then there's no way to fight it? [06:35] Granat     There was. [06:38] Granat     Those with powerful wills could     temporarily resist the spell. [06:46] Granat     The greater the individual,     the more iron their will. [06:51] Stark     And even then, it was only temporary? [06:54] Granat     But it was a fatal flaw. [06:56] Granat     The strong-willed must have been     an obstacle to her. [07:00] Granat     So... [07:03] Granat     Aura the Guillotine dealt with them in the     most logical way after gaining control. [07:10] Granat     It's a tragic tale. [07:19] Aura     Well? My immortal army     is powerful, isn't it? [07:38] Aura     I'm surprised. [07:40] Aura     You dispelled the magic I'd cast on them. [07:44] Aura     No one's ever done that before. [07:47] Aura     Such powerful dispelling magic must expend     a considerable amount of mana. [07:53] Aura     Why would you use such a roundabout method? [07:58] Aura     The last time we fought, you blew them away     with flashy spells left and right. [08:04] Frieren     Himmel scolded me afterward. [08:08] Aura     Then that's all the more reason     not to do this. [08:13] Frieren     Why? [08:15] Aura     Himmel is long gone, isn't he? [08:20] Frieren     I see. Good. [08:23] Frieren     You demons are monsters after all. [08:27] Frieren     I can kill you without mercy. [08:30] Stark     Okay. [08:31] Stark     I've regained most of my mobility. [08:35] Stark     Father, this place is safe, right? [08:38] Priest     Yes. It's not as strong as the     town's defensive barrier, [08:42] Priest     but there is a barrier around this church. [08:45] Stark     Then wait here, Graf. [08:49] Granat     Brat, what do you plan to do? [08:52] Stark     Do you think the demons will just leave     if we all hole up in here? [08:57] Fern     Mr. Stark, are you serious? [09:01] Fern     We only landed that hit before     because we caught him off guard. [09:04] Fern     We couldn't find enough of an     opening to finish him off. [09:09] Fern     If we'd kept fighting, we would     have been the ones killed. [09:15] Stark     Someone's gotta do this, right? [09:23] Fern     You're right. Then let's     do our best together. [09:28] Stark     No, you go to the guard station. [09:32] Stark     You need to evacuate the townsfolk. [09:35] Fern     Then you're going to... [09:39] Stark     Yeah. [09:41] Stark     I'm going to... [09:42] Stark     get on my hands and knees     and beg Frieren to return. [09:47] Fern     What? [09:50] Stark     Come on! Having her defeat him     is our only option! [09:55] Fern     I suppose that's more realistic. [10:03] Stark     The guards will listen to you     if you show them this. [10:07] Fern     Very well. [10:10] Stark     I'm heading straight out of town. [10:14] Stark     What is it? [10:15] Fern     Your arm is in a terrible state. [10:19] Fern     Can you pass through the castle gate     looking like that? [10:22] Stark     I'll be fine. This is normal for a warrior. [10:26] Stark     Is there something weird about it? [10:28] Fern     I've never seen a warrior walk     around town with two bloody hands. [10:33] Stark     You're one to talk. You're     covered in blood, too. [10:38] Stark     Huh? Whose blood is this? [10:41] Stark     It's not mine. [10:46] Stark     Hey! What's the matter with— [10:52] Fern     Mr. Stark, there's mana in this blood. [10:57] Stark     Fern! [11:07] Stark     An axe? [11:12] Stark     I don't believe it. Am I dreaming? [11:17] Stark     That was my master's technique. [11:23] Lügner     I'd meant to hit your vitals,     but then you went and moved. [11:28] Lügner     It wasn't my intention to make you suffer. [11:35] Lügner     Why are you surprised? [11:38] Lügner     Is it because I'm standing here when     I supposedly suffered a fatal blow? [11:42] Lügner     Or because you didn't detect our approach? [11:48] Lügner     You aren't the only one who knows how to     conceal her presence by controlling her mana. [11:54] Lügner     Any demon can do it. [11:58] Lügner     That said, it's hardly fitting     for a battle between mages. [12:06] Fern     You sure like to talk. [12:08] Fern     Aren't you going to finish me off? [12:12] Lügner     Since I failed to kill you instantly,     I thought I'd ask you some questions. [12:18] Lügner     Or would you rather die right now? [12:22] Fern     Go ahead. [12:26] Lügner     Is that boy strong? [12:29] Fern     He's Eisen the Warrior's best student. [12:32] Lügner     I see. How unfortunate. [12:36] Lügner     Poor boy. [12:37] Lügner     He won't die a decent death     at Linie's hands. [12:43] Lügner     One more question. [12:45] Lügner     Where is Frieren? [12:50] Fern     She fled the town [12:53] Fern     because you killed the dungeon guard. [12:56] Lügner     Graf Granat said something similar. [12:59] Lügner     Killing a guard is a serious crime, it seems. [13:02] Fern     The punishment is execution. [13:04] Lügner     Execution? [13:06] Lügner     That wouldn't be enough     to make that woman flee. [13:10] Lügner     She holds a powerful grudge against demons, [13:14] Lügner     enough to teach her own student     a spell purely for demon-killing. [13:20] Lügner     Someone like that wouldn't run. [13:23] Lügner     She must be after something. [13:28] Lügner     It must be Lady Aura. [13:33] Fern     Don't move. [13:36] Fern     You know where Ms. Frieren     is headed, don't you? [13:40] Lügner     You're wasting your time. [13:43] Fern     You lied about failing to kill me. [13:47] Fern     You wanted revenge for my surprising you. [13:53] Fern     You're proud and arrogant. [13:55] Fern     You still don't see us—see anyone     besides Ms. Frieren as a threat. [14:02] Fern     That's why you granted me an opportunity. [14:07] Fern     From this distance, I can blast     a hole clean through your heart. [14:12] Lügner     Try it. [14:14] Lügner     Your head will fly before     you get the chance. [14:25] (Flashback) Fern     Ms. Frieren, am I useful? [14:29] (Flashback) Frieren     Why would you ask that? [14:33] (Flashback) Fern     I'm not as good at magic as you are. [14:38] (Flashback) Frieren     I've lived for much longer than you. [14:42] (Flashback) Frieren     In that regard, you'll never catch up to me. [14:46] (Flashback) Fern     I see. [14:48] (Flashback) Frieren     But that only applies to mana and technique. [14:53] (Flashback) Frieren     I often let you handle     battles against monsters. [14:57] (Flashback) Fern     Yes, you've forced those on me many times. [15:00] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm sorry, okay? [15:02] (Flashback) Frieren     But battles end quicker when you fight [15:06] (Flashback) Frieren     because you fire off spells     faster than I do. [15:11] Lügner     Girl, I have dedicated the majority     of my life to the pursuit of magic. [15:18] Fern     So have I. [15:33] Lügner     How is she responding so quickly? [15:37] Lügner     If I hadn't reflexively defended myself,     that would've pierced my heart. [15:42] Fern     You blocked it. [15:43] Fern     So your heart is your weak point. [15:47] Lügner     This girl... [15:49] Lügner     I see. [15:51] Lügner     You weren't lying about     dedicating your life to magic. [15:56] Lügner     Then I shall crush you with all my might. [16:00] Lügner     Bluterei. [16:04] Linie     Sounds like they've begun as well. [16:08] Linie     It's a shame, though. [16:10] Linie     We're nearly finished here. [16:14] Linie     Perhaps I'll observe their battle. [16:16] Linie     Lord Lügner gets cross when I interfere. [16:25] Linie     Oh? [16:26] Stark     We're not finished yet. [16:30] Linie     You're tough. Perhaps I'll be     able to enjoy this a little. [16:37] Lügner     My mana, technique, and control     are all far greater than hers. [17:03] Lügner     This girl cannot compare to me. [17:09] Lügner     However, she's fast. [17:12] Lügner     I'm being overwhelmed by the sheer     number of attacks, pure and simple. [17:22] Lügner     Damn you, Frieren.     How did you train this girl? [17:31] Lügner     I'll engage her in a battle of attrition     and wait for her to exhaust her mana. [17:48] Lügner     No, I can't. [17:50] Lügner     The battle will be over before then. [17:53] Lügner     If I could just create an opening... [17:57] Lügner     Linie, what are you doing? [17:59] Lügner     Hurry up and defeat him! [18:08] Linie     Honestly, how selfish. [18:10] Linie     He's refusing to do anything     but fight defensively. [18:31] Stark     How are you wielding your axe like that? [18:35] Stark     Those are my master's techniques. [18:37] Linie     I'm skilled at reading mana. [18:41] Linie     I memorize the flow of mana     inside a person when they move [18:46] Linie     and imitate their movements. [18:48] Linie     Just like this. [19:13] Linie     I knew it from the first time I saw     your movements at the mansion. [19:18] Linie     They're the same as those of the     powerful warrior I once memorized. [19:26] Linie     Coincidences really do happen. [19:29] Linie     Fate is an interesting thing. [19:34] Stark     You don't mean... [19:36] Linie     I am imitating the movements     of Eisen the Warrior. [19:41] Stark     Seriously? This is crazy. [19:47] Stark     I can't win this fight. [19:58] Linie     He finally fell. [20:00] Linie     I must hurry. [20:02] Linie     Lord Lügner will be upset with me again. [20:07] Stark     "Fell"? Have I fallen? [20:15] (Flashback) Eisen     Stand up, Stark. [20:18] (Flashback) Eisen     No matter how battered you get,     you cannot fall. [20:23] (Flashback) Stark     Yeah, but there's no way I can beat you. [20:30] (Flashback) Eisen     Of course you can't. [20:32] (Flashback) Eisen     I'm stronger than you. [20:35] (Flashback) Stark     Then... [20:36] (Flashback) Eisen     But you got back up. [20:40] (Flashback) Eisen     That means you haven't lost yet. [20:43] (Flashback) Stark     What kind of logic is that? [20:45] (Flashback) Eisen     Stark, I'll teach you the secret     to defeating powerful opponents. [20:51] (Flashback) Eisen     It's simple. [20:53] (Flashback) Eisen     Keep getting back up and hitting them. [20:56] (Flashback) Eisen     For warriors, whoever's still standing     at the end is the winner. [21:05] Stark     Damn it, Master. [21:09] Stark     You and your weird logic. [21:12] Stark     I guess your brain's made of muscles,      like the rest of you. [21:16] Linie     You should've just stayed down. [21:19] Linie     You already lost. [21:22] Stark     I'm still standing. [21:26] Stark     Besides, I remember now. [21:28] Stark     My master's blows were heavier. [21:32] Stark     Yours are just imitations after all. [21:40] Linie     Then I will use those imitations     to send you to your end. [21:45] Linie     Erfassen. [21:47] Lügner     Bluterei! [22:00] Linie     A wide swing, with no regard for defense. [22:03] Linie     He's lost his mind. [22:12] Stark     I was prepared for us to kill each other,     but I shouldn't have been so scared. [22:16] Stark     Your attacks don't have any     weight behind them at all. [22:21] Stark     Lightning Strike! [22:34] Lügner     Linie! [22:36] Lügner     Shi— [22:37] Fern     Zoltraak. [22:43] Lügner     Demon-killing magic... [24:20] Heiter     She has roughly one-fifth of my mana. [24:20] Himmel     I've heard there's a long-lived     mage in these woods. [24:21] Lügner     If she engages her directly,     Frieren will lose. [24:23] Aura     You are no match for me. [24:23] Eisen     What do you think, Heiter? [24:24] Flamme     Looks like an elf village. [24:25] Demon A     Kill all the elves. [24:25] Frieren     Because you're a far more powerful mage.

[00:22] (Flashback) Flamme     What is it? [00:23] (Flashback) Frieren     Do you really think it's unfair? [00:28] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, do you remember Basalt's last words? [00:34] (Flashback) Frieren     No. [00:36] (Flashback) Frieren     Their kind uses words only to deceive humans. [00:39] (Flashback) Flamme     That's right. [00:41] (Flashback) Flamme     They're nothing more than monsters     capable of speech. [00:44] (Flashback) Flamme     That's the true nature of the     creatures I call demons. [00:50] (Flashback) Flamme     They don't play fair,     so we must be even more unfair. [00:56] (Flashback) Flamme     If it allows me to exterminate demonkind,     then I will gladly embrace this dishonor. SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 10: A Powerful Mage [02:44] Lügner     The bleeding won't stop. [02:47] Lügner     This is the end. [02:49] Fern     Your plan has failed. [02:53] Lügner     You're right. [02:55] Lügner     But Frieren won't escape unscathed. [02:58] Lügner     She must be fighting Lady Aura by now. [03:02] Lügner     Previously, we were forced to     retreat by the party of heroes. [03:07] Lügner     But this time, there are     no heroes to protect her. [03:12] Lügner     It's true that Frieren is a threat to us, [03:15] Lügner     but she has far less mana than Lady Aura. [03:19] Lügner     If she engages her directly,     Frieren will lose. [03:23] Fern     Then Frieren will win. [03:27] Fern     She'd never directly engage a demon. [03:32] Fern     I know she'll trick Aura and kill her. [03:36] Lügner     Nonsense. [03:38] Lügner     Frieren the Slayer has always     engaged us directly. [03:45] Lügner     Why do I feel like something is wrong? [03:49] Lügner     This girl's mana is weak, [03:52] Lügner     and yet I was overwhelmed by the     sheer number of her rapid attacks. [03:58] Lügner     But how was she able to do that     without exhausting her mana? [04:04] Lügner     I understand now. Is that even possible? [04:09] Lügner     So Frieren does the same. [04:12] Lügner     What you've done isn't fair. [04:14] Lügner     You're a disgrace to all mages. [04:18] Fern     Ms. Frieren knows that better than anyone. [04:32] (Flashback) Flamme     What a dreadful sight. [04:35] (Flashback) Flamme     Looks like an elf village. [04:49] (Flashback) Flamme     Basalt the Throne, [04:51] (Flashback) Flamme     a general of the Demon King's army. [04:54] (Flashback) Flamme     He must've led his forces here     to destroy this village. [05:00] (Flashback) Flamme     Are you the one who killed him?     You seem nearly dead yourself. [05:10] (Flashback) Flamme     That's a lot of mana. [05:13] (Flashback) Flamme     You must be powerful. [05:14] (Flashback) Flamme     Did you engage the demons directly? [05:19] (Flashback) Flamme     What a fool you are. [05:23] (Flashback) Flamme     Why do people always engage     their enemies directly? [05:26] (Flashback) Flamme     Run, hide, take your enemies by surprise... [05:29] (Flashback) Flamme     There are plenty of other options. [05:32] (Flashback) Flamme     I'll never understand strong mages. [05:36] (Flashback) Frieren     But you do. [05:38] (Flashback) Flamme     What? [05:39] (Flashback) Frieren     You should understand how I feel... [05:45] (Flashback) Frieren     because you're a far more powerful mage. [06:00] (Flashback) Flamme     What makes you say that? [06:03] (Flashback) Frieren     Just a feeling. [06:07] (Flashback) Flamme     What's your name? [06:13] (Flashback) Frieren     What happened to the village? [06:15] (Flashback) Flamme     Its people are dead, down to     the last woman and child. [06:20] (Flashback) Frieren     I was the strongest, but I still     couldn't protect them. [06:25] (Flashback) Flamme     You really are a fool. [06:27] (Flashback) Flamme     If I'd been in your shoes,     I wouldn't have hesitated to run. [06:32] (Flashback) Frieren     Put me down. [06:33] (Flashback) Flamme     No. [06:35] (Flashback) Flamme     You have potential.     You're going to be my apprentice. [06:39] (Flashback) Flamme     And you know you wouldn't have survived     if I hadn't happened upon you. [06:45] (Flashback) Flamme     On top of failing to protect the village,     you nearly died yourself. [06:50] (Flashback) Flamme     Your death truly would've been in vain. [06:55] (Flashback) Flamme     We're being pursued. [06:57] (Flashback) Flamme     They're stronger than the general you killed. [07:07] (Flashback) Flamme     Interesting creatures, aren't they? [07:10] (Flashback) Flamme     They had every intention     of catching us off guard [07:12] (Flashback) Flamme     by concealing their mana     until just before they struck, [07:15] (Flashback) Flamme     but the moment they realized we were mages,     they stepped out into the open. [07:21] (Flashback) Flamme     They're cunning and they don't play fair, [07:24] (Flashback) Flamme     but every last one of them has a ridiculous     sense of pride when it comes to magic. [07:30] (Flashback) Demon A     Human mage, leave the elf girl and go. [07:35] (Flashback) Flamme     Will you let me go if I do? [07:38] (Flashback) Demon A     "Kill all the elves." [07:40] (Flashback) Demon A     Those were the Demon King's orders. [07:43] (Flashback) Demon A     Your life matters not to me. [07:46] (Flashback) Flamme     I see. [07:51] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, it's true that I'm painfully aware     of what it's like to be a powerful mage. [07:58] (Flashback) Flamme     I know exactly how these creatures feel, too. [08:02] (Flashback) Flamme     I know the absolute confidence they     have in the magics they've studied. [08:08] (Flashback) Flamme     In other words, they're stupidly     proud and overconfident. [08:26] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, unlike you,     they judged me a weakling. [08:33] (Flashback) Flamme     Though they were exceptional mages,     their overconfidence cost them their lives. [08:40] (Flashback) Frieren     You hid your strength by controlling     how much mana you release. [08:46] (Flashback) Flamme     That's right. [08:48] (Flashback) Flamme     Deceive and kill your enemies by allowing     them to miscalculate your strength. [08:53] (Flashback) Flamme     It's a cowardly and unfair way to fight     that makes a mockery of magic. [09:14] (Flashback) Flamme     Your injuries are looking a lot better. [09:19] (Flashback) Flamme     Shall we begin your training? [09:23] (Flashback) Frieren     Flamme. [09:24] (Flashback) Flamme     You mean "Master." [09:30] (Flashback) Frieren     Demons took everything from me. [09:33] (Flashback) Flamme     Me, too. [09:35] (Flashback) Frieren     I hate them so much that I wish     I could exterminate every last one. [09:38] (Flashback) Flamme     Me, too. [09:41] (Flashback) Frieren     But I love magic. [09:43] (Flashback) Flamme     So do I. [09:47] (Flashback) Flamme     Which is why only you and I should become     cowards who make a mockery of magic. [09:55] (Flashback) Frieren     What should I do to train? [09:57] (Flashback) Flamme     Try limiting the mana you release     to one-tenth of its normal volume. [10:04] (Flashback) Flamme     Impressive. You're controlling it well. [10:08] (Flashback) Frieren     Any elf can do this. [10:11] (Flashback) Flamme     While you do that, we'll work on your     fundamentals and raise your base mana level. [10:17] (Flashback) Frieren     That's all? [10:19] (Flashback) Flamme     Simple, right? [10:22] (Flashback) Frieren     By the way, how long should     I keep suppressing my mana? [10:26] (Flashback) Frieren     It starts to get tiring     if I do it for too long. [10:29] (Flashback) Flamme     As long as I do. [10:31] (Flashback) Flamme     For life. [10:33] (Flashback) Flamme     You'll spend your entire life fooling demons. [10:42] Aura     Lügner is dead. [10:45] Frieren     Now all your executioners     have been eliminated. [10:48] Frieren     You've failed, Aura. [10:50] Aura     You're right. It's a shame. [10:53] Aura     But if I can defeat you here,     then it won't have been for nothing. [10:59] Aura     In this battle, you've released numerous     immortal soldiers from my control. [11:06] Aura     Was it wise to expend so much mana against me? [11:14] Frieren     The Scales of Obedience. [11:16] Frieren     When two souls are placed on the scale, [11:19] Frieren     whichever has more mana     forces the other to submit. [11:23] Frieren     Aura can only use such a risky spell     because of her tremendous amount of mana. [11:29] Frieren     Generally speaking, [11:31] Frieren     a person's mana increases in proportion     with the time spent training. [11:36] Frieren     I can feel it in the mana pouring off Aura. [11:39] Frieren     She's a great demon who has lived     for over five hundred years, [11:43] Frieren     and she's spent most of her life training. [11:48] Frieren     Five hundred years, huh? [11:50] Frieren     That's fairly long-lived for a demon. [11:53] Frieren     I doubt she's been challenged before. [11:56] Frieren     I can learn so much just from     the mana flowing off her. [12:01] Frieren     Regardless, demons don't conceal     their mana—nor can they. [12:06] Frieren     A pity. [12:12] Aura     Auserlese. [12:17] (Flashback) Frieren     Master. [12:19] (Flashback) Frieren     Demons are cunning, aren't they? [12:22] (Flashback) Frieren     Why don't they constantly suppress     their mana like you do? [12:28] (Flashback) Flamme     They can't. [12:30] (Flashback) Flamme     Demons are individualists, [12:33] (Flashback) Flamme     but they form the barest connections     needed to fight against humankind. [12:39] (Flashback) Flamme     What do you think an organization     needs to function? [12:42] (Flashback) Frieren     Order? [12:44] (Flashback) Flamme     That's right. [12:45] (Flashback) Flamme     In other words, you need someone     important to lead an organization. [12:50] (Flashback) Flamme     In the case of humans, [12:52] (Flashback) Flamme     importance is determined by status     and wealth, like they do in this nation. [12:58] (Flashback) Flamme     That well-dressed man exiting     that palace is a man of importance. [13:03] (Flashback) Flamme     It's hard to tell which humans are important, [13:05] (Flashback) Flamme     so they dress themselves up     to make it obvious. [13:09] (Flashback) Frieren     Demons are different? [13:12] (Flashback) Flamme     They haven't changed a bit     since they were monsters. [13:16] (Flashback) Flamme     Might makes right. [13:18] (Flashback) Flamme     It's far easier to understand than humans. [13:21] (Flashback) Flamme     You can tell who's strong     just by looking at them. [13:23] (Flashback) Freiren     You mean mana. [13:25] (Flashback) Flamme     Mana is to them what status     and wealth are for humans. [13:30] (Flashback) Flamme     It's dignity itself. [13:32] (Flashback) Flamme     They may temporarily suppress     their mana for the sake of stealth, [13:38] (Flashback) Flamme     but none are foolish enough     to suppress their mana all the time. [13:42] (Flashback) Flamme     It's the difference between a noble     sneaking out into town incognito [13:47] (Flashback) Flamme     and that same noble debasing themselves by     abandoning their status and wealth entirely. [13:52] (Flashback) Flamme     The world of demons is cruel. [13:55] (Flashback) Flamme     They'd never grant any dignity     to those with little mana. [13:59] (Flashback) Flamme     So the stronger they are, the more desperate     they are to show off their mana. [14:04] (Flashback) Flamme     For them, there's no benefit to     constantly suppressing their mana. [14:10] (Flashback) Flamme     It doesn't even occur to them to do it. [14:13] (Flashback) Flamme     It's a pity, isn't it? [14:15] (Flashback) Flamme     Just as humans are bound by status     and wealth, demons are bound by mana. [14:20] (Flashback) Flamme     Despite their pride in     and unparalleled love for magic, [14:25] (Flashback) Flamme     they can't control their own mana. [14:29] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, you're lucky you're not a demon. [14:32] (Flashback) Frieren     You're right. I wouldn't be able     to deceive them if I were. [14:40] (Flashback) Flamme     It's been three years since you     started suppressing your mana. [14:44] (Flashback) Flamme     Looks like I was right about you. [14:52] (Flashback) Flamme     You've grown much better at that. [14:56] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, do you still love magic? [15:01] (Flashback) Frieren     Where did that come from, Master? [15:04] (Flashback) Frieren     Somewhat, I suppose. [15:07] (Flashback) Flamme     Long ago, you once confidently     answered that you loved magic. [15:12] (Flashback) Frieren     That was only fifty years ago. [15:15] (Flashback) Flamme     You're right. [15:18] (Flashback) Flamme     In the end, all I could do     was teach you to fight. [15:24] (Flashback) Flamme     Magic for revenge. [15:27] (Flashback) Frieren     Do you regret it? [15:29] (Flashback) Flamme     No. I'm glad I taught my magic to you. [15:35] (Flashback) Flamme     Given how long you'll live, [15:37] (Flashback) Flamme     you might eventually become strong     enough to defeat the Demon King. [15:44] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, I have one request. [15:48] (Flashback) Frieren     What is it? [15:49] (Flashback) Flamme     Plant flowers around my grave. [15:53] (Flashback) Freiren     That doesn't seem like you. [15:55] (Flashback) Flamme     I know. [15:57] (Flashback) Flamme     Frieren, my favorite spell     creates a field of beautiful flowers. [16:06] (Flashback) Flamme     My parents taught it to me when I was little. [16:09] (Flashback) Flamme     It's what made me love magic. [16:12] (Flashback) Frieren     Huh. [16:16] (Flashback) Frieren     Teach me that spell. [16:26] (Flashback) Flamme     Listen to me, Frieren. [16:28] (Flashback) Flamme     You must never seek to leave     your name in history. [16:31] (Flashback) Flamme     Live in obscurity. [16:34] (Flashback) Flamme     You won't leave your name in history     until you defeat the Demon King. [17:39] (Flashback) Himmel     I've heard there's a long-lived     mage in these woods. [17:44] (Flashback) Himmel     Are you her? [17:46] (Flashback) Frieren     I've lived a long time, but I haven't     done much with my life. [17:51] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm not exceptional. [17:53] (Flashback) Eisen     Huh. What do you think, Heiter? [17:58] (Flashback) Heiter     She has roughly one-fifth of my mana. [18:02] (Flashback) Heiter     It's not bad. [18:04] (Flashback) Frieren     Who's this irritating guy? [18:06] (Flashback) Frieren     Leave. You don't have business     with a mediocre mage, do you? [18:10] (Flashback) Himmel     No, you're stronger than     any mage I've ever met. [18:16] (Flashback) Frieren     What makes you say that? [18:19] (Flashback) Himmel     Just a feeling. [18:26] Aura     Auserlese. [18:46] Frieren     You seem happy, Aura. [18:48] Frieren     Are you certain you'll win? [18:52] Aura     You'll see. [18:55] Aura     Frieren the Slayer. [18:57] Aura     You made your first major     appearance eighty years ago. [19:02] Aura     With the party of heroes,     you defeated the Demon King. [19:05] Aura     You're a mysterious elven mage     whose age is unknown. [19:09] Aura     But it doesn't matter how     long-lived a mage you are. [19:15] Aura     Your mana tells me everything     I need to know. [19:19] Aura     I can see it quite clearly. [19:21] Aura     You're an exceptional mage,     but your mana itself is unimpressive. [19:27] Aura     You can't have had more than a     hundred years or so of training. [19:32] Aura     Not only that, but you've barely     changed since eighty years ago. [19:36] Aura     Were you honing other skills     instead of working on your mana? [19:39] Aura     Or were you simply wasting your life away? [19:42] Aura     Either way, you are no match for me. [19:57] Aura     I win. [20:01] Aura     All that's left is to sever your head myself. [20:10] Aura     It wasn't even necessary     to exhaust Frieren's mana. [20:15] Aura     I needn't have been so cautious. [20:18] Aura     She defeated many of my     immortal soldiers, too. [20:20] Aura     I'll have to replenish their numbers later. [20:26] Aura     What's this? [20:28] Aura     The scales are starting to tip toward Frieren. [20:32] Frieren     You placed my soul on the scales, Aura. [20:36] Frieren     Honestly, I would've been in trouble     if you'd tried to overwhelm me with numbers. [20:41] Frieren     I'm glad you're so confident in your own mana. [20:46] Frieren     Now I can finally defeat you. [20:49] Aura     What do you mean? [20:50] Frieren     You should've figured it out by now. [20:53] Frieren     I've been suppressing my mana. [20:56] Frieren     You misjudged the situation, Aura. [21:01] Aura     That's impossible. That wouldn't     have escaped my notice. [21:06] Aura     There was no hint of the instability     or variation in mana output [21:10] Aura     that comes with suppression. [21:12] Frieren     I'm surprised. Demons are capable     of observing mana that precisely? [21:18] Frieren     Sounds like my master made the     right call with her methods. [21:22] Frieren     I've spent most of my life     suppressing my mana. [21:27] Frieren     This state has become natural for me. [21:30] Aura     Are you stupid? Why would you     do something so pointless? [21:35] Frieren     You're right. It's stupid. [21:38] Frieren     But it lets me beat your kind. [21:44] Aura     This is absurd. [21:46] Aura     I'm a great demon who's lived     for over five hundred years. [21:51] Frieren     Aura, the person standing before you... [21:57] Frieren     is a mage who's lived     for over a thousand years. [22:14] Flamme     Frieren. [22:16] Flamme     Just as demons deceive humankind with words, [22:19] Flamme     you must use your mana to deceive demons. [22:24] Frieren     Aura, [22:26] Frieren     kill yourself. [22:36] Aura     Impossible. [22:38] Aura     H-How could I...? [24:20] Heiter     Do you have someone to praise you? [24:20] Kraft     You're traveling to heaven, then? [24:21] Fern     I'm not sure I understand. [24:22] Stark     You've got a nice body, old man. [24:23] Granat     The largest magical city in the     northern lands, Äußerst. [24:24] Frieren     What's a first-class mage? [24:25] Fern     What is that antique? [24:26] Kraft     I mean that we're elves.

[00:29] Fern     You defeated Aura, didn't you? SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [02:22] Granat     I don't believe—     I can't believe this happened. [02:26] Frieren     Let's go. [02:27] Granat     Wait. You don't need to run. [02:30] Stark     The graf said he'd pardon you. [02:36] Granat     It must have been a fierce battle, [02:39] Granat     but none of them are seriously damaged. [02:44] Granat     Thank you for treating the heroes     of the northern lands with respect. [02:54] Frieren     I used to cast flashier spells,     but Himmel got mad at me. [02:59] Stark     I bet he did. [03:01] Stark     He was right to be angry. I'd be angry, too. [03:04] Fern     Mr. Himmel trained you well. [03:08] Frieren     Don't say it like that. [03:10] Frieren     I guess you're right, though. [03:16] Frieren     This is a normal reaction. [03:19] Fern     What do you mean? [03:21] Frieren     Don't worry about it. [03:24] Frieren     Fern, Stark. [03:27] Frieren     Good job defeating Lügner and his henchwoman. [03:30] Frieren     I'm proud of you. [03:36] Frieren     I'd be even more impressed     if you weren't so beat up, though. [03:38] Stark     This is normal for a warrior. [03:41] Fern     What does "normal" even mean? [03:43] Frieren     You're covered in wounds. [03:45] Granat     See that they receive proper burials.     I'll escort our benefactors to the city. [03:49] Guard A     Yes, milord. [03:50] Guard B     Milord. [03:52] Granat     What is it? [04:05] Granat     Frieren. [04:08] Granat     I've never been as grateful to anyone     as I am to you today. [04:25] Granat     Frieren, I promised to reward you     in any way I could. [04:33] Granat     You requested the defensive     barrier grimoire by Flamme [04:38] Granat     that has been passed down     for generations in my family. [04:43] Granat     Are you sure this is what you want?     This grimoire... [04:47] Frieren     It's fake. [04:51] Granat     Yes. The defensive barrier it describes [04:54] Granat     is nothing like our city's barrier,     whose spell is passed down by oral tradition. [04:59] Frieren     I'm well aware of that, milord. [05:01] Frieren     It's just my hobby. [05:04] Granat     I see. [05:06] Granat     Either way, you needn't use     such formal language. [05:09] Granat     From your perspective,     I must seem akin to an infant. [05:14] Frieren     I suffered a bitter experience when     I first left to defeat the Demon King. [05:18] Fern     Come to think of it, Mr. Heiter     said that in the royal capital, [05:22] Fern     disrespecting nobility     is punishable by death. [05:25] Frieren     Himmel and Eisen were nearly executed     for speaking casually to the king. [05:31] Frieren     Remembering Himmel screaming     and crying takes me back. [05:36] Stark     Execution? That's extreme. [05:40] (Flashback) Granat     And speaking so casually to me     is a serious crime in this town, brat. [05:45] (Flashback) Stark     Sorry, old man. [05:47] (Flashback) Stark     I'm gonna break this     expensive-looking chair. [05:50] Stark     Th-The central lands sure     are barbaric, milord. [05:58] Stark     Seriously?! [06:00] Gardener     I've finished cutting the     trees in the backyard. [06:02] Granat     Thank you. [06:05] Granat     Well, you know, I only said that     so you'd escape. [06:10] Granat     In this town, you won't be thrown     in prison just for speaking casually. [06:15] Granat     Be at ease. [06:17] Frieren     In that case... [06:19] Fern     Good news for you, Mr. Stark. [06:25] Fern     He's passed out. [06:32] Granat     I've told the townsfolk of Aura's defeat. [06:36] Granat     They all want to honor the heroes. [06:40] Granat     I ask that you take your time here. [06:53] Child     He's floating. [06:57] Stark     It's not that big a deal. [08:23] Stark     I finished the shopping. [08:26] Fern     Shall we go, then? [08:28] Granat     You're leaving already, Frieren? [08:31] Frieren     Graf Granat. [08:36] Granat     I'll see you to the gates. [08:41] Granat     Frieren, I hear you're traveling to Ende, [08:44] Granat     the farthest point north,     where the Demon King's castle is. [08:49] Granat     But currently, conditions on the     Northern Plateau aren't looking good. [08:54] Granat     Travel is restricted. [08:57] Granat     Even adventurers must be accompanied     by a first-class mage. [09:03] Fern     Then there should no problem     with Ms. Frieren by our side. [09:06] Frieren     What's a first-class mage? [09:09] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you don't know? [09:12] Fern     It's a certification awarded by the     Continental Magic Association. [09:17] Frieren     Certification? [09:18] Fern     I acquired mine in the     holy capital when we left. [09:22] Fern     See? [09:23] Fern     This is my third-class mage certificate. [09:26] Frieren     Come to think of it, you did have     some business to take care of then. [09:30] Frieren     Is this what certifications     look like these days? [09:32] Fern     Ms. Frieren, don't tell me you're     an uncertified underground mage. [09:37] Frieren     Don't make it sound like     I'm some back-alley doctor. [09:39] Frieren     The organizations that regulate     mages are constantly changing. [09:44] Frieren     I can't be bothered obtaining     a new certification every time. [09:47] Frieren     I doubt this holy emblem works anymore. [09:52] Fern     What is that antique? [09:55] Stark     Even I know about the     Continental Magic Association. [09:59] Stark     They've been around for over     half a century at the very least. [10:01] Frieren     That's barely anything. [10:04] Frieren     It's a hassle when they change their     standards of conduct so frequently. [10:09] Fern     In any case, we'll need to overcome     this problem before we continue. [10:13] Fern     I don't know the specifics, [10:15] Fern     but I believe there's a place     in the northern lands [10:17] Fern     where you can take the first-class exam. [10:21] Granat     The largest magical city in the     northern lands, Äußerst. [10:27] Granat     It's far beyond the Schwer Mountains. [10:30] Granat     You can follow the highway,     but it'll be a long journey. [10:38] Granat     Frieren, the house of Granat will     never forget what you've done for us. [10:46] Granat     Safe travels. [11:00] Stark     It's snowing. [11:02] Fern     It's almost winter. [11:06] Frieren     The winters around here are bitter,     so be careful. [11:09] Frieren     If you underestimate them, you'll die. [11:11] Fern     Is it really that dangerous? [11:14] Frieren     Don't you know? [11:16] Frieren     In the war against the Demon King's forces,     what do you think claimed the most lives? [11:20] Frieren     It was the winters of the northern lands. [11:30] Frieren     See? We're lost. [11:37] Frieren     What are we going to do? SIGN    Episode 11: Winter in the Northern Lands [11:45] Frieren     We're lost. SIGN    28 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Decke region, located in the northern lands [11:47] Frieren     I can't believe we got lost before     even entering the Schwer Mountains. [11:54] Fern     Mr. Stark, wake up! [11:56] Fern     If you fall asleep, you'll die! [11:59] Stark     Have jumbo-berry specials     always been this small? [12:04] Fern     Who cares about that right now? [12:06] Fern     What should we do? [12:08] Frieren     In these strong winds,     we can't transport him with magic. [12:13] Frieren     He'd probably be blown away. [12:16] Fern     Then we'll have to carry him. [12:25] Fern     He's heavy. [12:27] Fern     Why is he so heavy? [12:31] Stark     You smell nice. [12:33] Fern     Can I leave him behind? [12:34] Frieren     Bear it for now. [12:36] Frieren     There should be an emergency shelter     at the foot of the mountains. [12:39] Fern     Isn't that information     eighty years out of date? [12:43] Fern     Are we going to be all right? [12:52] Frieren     Good. [12:53] Frieren     It's still being maintained regularly. [13:01] Fern     It seems like someone's inside. [13:04] Fern     Perhaps someone arrived before us. [13:06] Frieren     We're going inside. [13:08] Frieren     We'll freeze out here. [13:15] Kraft     Good! Very good! [13:17] Kraft     I'm starting to feel warmer! [13:26] Frieren     Excuse the intrusion. [13:30] Fern     Ms. Frieren, we can't stay here.     Let's look for someplace else. [13:34] Frieren     What? Why? [13:36] Fern     There's a pervert inside. [13:39] Kraft     A pervert? That's awfully rude. [13:43] Fern     Let's go, Ms. Frieren. [13:46] Kraft     Wait. Are you an elf? [13:55] Kraft     It's been about 300 years since     I've met another of my kind. [13:58] Kraft     I thought the elves had already died out. [14:01] Frieren     So did I. [14:04] Kraft     And thanks for the fire, miss. [14:07] Fern     Not at all. [14:08] Kraft     I'm lucky I ran into a couple of mages. [14:12] Kraft     The Goddess must have led you here. [14:15] Kraft     I crossed the Schwer Mountains,     but this blizzard extinguished my coals. [14:21] Kraft     I was keeping myself alive by doing     squats inside this freezing hut. [14:25] Frieren     I see. [14:27] Fern     I'm not sure I understand. [14:29] Kraft     I'm Kraft the Monk. [14:32] Frieren     Frieren the Mage. [14:34] Fern     Fern, also a mage. [14:37] Fern     This is Mr. Stark the Warrior. [14:40] Kraft     Anyway, Aureole, huh? [14:42] Kraft     You're traveling to heaven, then? [14:45] Kraft     Good on you for being so pious. [14:48] Frieren     I'm not sure I totally believe it. [14:50] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [14:52] Fern     Mr. Stark is getting colder. [15:01] Stark     So warm and comfortable... [15:04] Stark     And that's one huge jumbo-berry special. [15:10] Stark     What happened to me? [15:15] Stark     We got caught in a blizzard, and then... [15:35] Stark     Who is this guy?! [15:38] Frieren     You're so noisy. [15:41] Kraft     That's no way to thank someone     for warming you up with their body. [15:46] Stark     Their body? [15:50] Stark     You've got a nice body, old man. [15:53] Fern     Mr. Stark? [15:54] Stark     No, not like that. [15:57] Stark     I mean he's got a nice body     from training hard. [16:01] Stark     You must be really strong. [16:04] Stark     What's your name? [16:06] Kraft     Kraft the Monk. [16:09] Stark     I've never heard of you. [16:12] Stark     But you must be a pretty famous monk, right? [16:17] Kraft     Stark, rest here. [16:20] Kraft     You two, help me bring in food supplies. [16:23] Kraft     My wagon and cargo are nearby. [16:29] Kraft     I'm really glad I met all of you. [16:32] Kraft     We'll be able to use these frozen supplies. [16:35] Kraft     Use as much as you'd like. [16:38] Fern     You've certainly stocked up. [16:40] Frieren     Trying to cross the Schwer Mountains     in these conditions would be suicide. [16:44] Frieren     We're stuck here for a while. [16:48] Kraft     By the way, Frieren, do you know who I am? [16:53] Frieren     Not at all. [16:54] Kraft     I didn't think so. [16:56] Kraft     I don't know the first thing     about you, either. [16:59] Fern     She's the mage from the party of heroes. [17:02] Kraft     And before that? [17:05] Frieren     What do you mean? [17:07] Kraft     I mean that we're elves. [17:59] Kraft     It's been nearly six months. [18:02] Kraft     Thanks to all of you, we made it through     the long winter in the northern lands. [18:09] Kraft     Take this. [18:13] Kraft     Give it to Fern. She's a pious girl. [18:18] Kraft     Must be because she was raised by a priest. [18:22] Kraft     She never forgets to thank the Goddess. [18:25] Frieren     Kraft, why do you believe in the Goddess? [18:29] Kraft     You don't, do you? [18:33] Frieren     Excluding during the age of mythology, [18:37] Frieren     the Goddess of Creation hasn't shown herself     once in the long history of this world. [18:44] Kraft     You're young. I used to think that way, too. [18:48] Kraft     But now I believe in the Goddess     from the bottom of my heart. [18:53] Kraft     No, I need her to exist. [18:58] Kraft     Everyone who knew of my     righteous triumphs has died. [19:05] Kraft     So when I die, I'll go to heaven     and the Goddess will praise me. [19:11] Kraft     She'll say, "Well done, Kraft." [19:14] Kraft     "You lived a fantastic life." [19:21] Kraft     You understand that, Frieren. [19:24] Kraft     It's too cruel for the path your life took     to not be remembered by anyone. [19:31] Kraft     We've lived a long time to get to this point. [19:38] Frieren     Kraft, that's just something we desire. [19:44] Kraft     You're right. [19:47] Kraft     Does that apply to heaven too, Frieren? [19:56] Kraft     No matter. [19:58] Kraft     Tell me about yourself,     and I'll tell you about myself. [20:02] Kraft     If you don't believe in the Goddess,     then I'll praise you instead. [20:12] (Flashback) Heiter     Are you surprised? [20:14] (Flashback) Frieren     Yeah. I didn't think you'd fund the     reconstruction of this village's orphanage. [20:22] (Flashback) Heiter     You don't beat around the bush, do you? [20:24] (Flashback) Heiter     I was an orphan, too. [20:30] (Flashback) Heiter     I'm sure the Goddess will praise me     for living a pure and proper life. [20:37] (Flashback) Frieren     What are you talking about, you corrupt     priest? You're drinking right now. [20:42] (Flashback) Heiter     Frieren. [20:44] (Flashback) Heiter     Do you have someone to praise you? [20:48] (Flashback) Frieren     Where did that come from? [20:50] (Flashback) Heiter     You don't seem to believe in the Goddess, [20:55] (Flashback) Heiter     so if you tell me about yourself,     I'll praise you instead. [21:00] (Flashback) Frieren     I haven't done much with my life. [21:03] (Flashback) Frieren     I haven't done anything praiseworthy. [21:06] (Flashback) Heiter     Even though you're constantly     suppressing your mana? [21:10] (Flashback) Heiter     To me, that seems like the     result of tremendous effort. [21:16] (Flashback) Heiter     Something that would take     a lifetime to accomplish. [21:20] (Flashback) Frieren     You noticed? [21:22] (Flashback) Heiter     How many years have we     traveled together again? [21:26] (Flashback) Frieren     It's not an interesting story. [21:28] (Flashback) Heiter     I don't mind. [21:30] (Flashback) Heiter     Besides, it sounds like something     useful to know for the future. [21:33] (Flashback) Frieren     Why? [21:34] (Flashback) Heiter     Perhaps a child of mine will become a mage. [21:41] (Flashback) Frieren     I thought priests couldn't marry. [21:50] Frieren     Why do so many strange     people serve the Goddess? [21:55] Frieren     I'll pass. I've already had     someone else praise me. [22:02] Kraft     I see. You have good friends, Frieren. [22:06] Kraft     You should cherish them. [22:09] Frieren     Actually, he's already... [22:17] Frieren     He's in heaven now. [22:20] Kraft     Then you'll see him again someday. [22:23] Frieren     You're right. [22:27] Kraft     I'm going this way. [22:29] Kraft     Frieren, I doubt this is     the last time we'll meet. [22:33] Kraft     I'll see you in a few centuries. [22:39] Stark     Take care, old man! I had fun! [22:43] Fern     Thank you for the pendant! [24:20] Stark Dad     His pure white cape proves that he's [24:20] Chief     I'm a mild-mannered person,     but even I'm pissed off. [24:21] Stark     This village used to protect the Hero's Sword. [24:22] Stark Dad     the strongest warrior in the village. [24:23] Heiter     It's a replica. [24:23] Eisen     They're a gift to honor warriors     who have worked hard. [24:24] Fern     Perv. [24:25] Himmel     We're not warriors. [24:26] Stoltz     Don't tell the rest of the family.

SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 12: A Real Hero SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Schwer Mountains, located in the northern lands [01:47] Fern     Ms. Frieren is falling asleep. [01:51] Stark     What? [01:58] Fern     She's asleep. [02:00] Stark     Oh, well. I'll carry her. [02:03] Fern     But Mr. Stark, your axe... [02:05] Stark     Oh, right. [02:07] Stark     My hands are free, though. [02:19] Fern     I'll carry her. [02:20] Stark     What? Why? [02:22] Fern     No reason. [02:33] (Flashback) Eisen     In the end, the king only     gave us ten copper coins. [02:38] (Flashback) Freiren     What a cheapskate. [02:39] (Flashback) Heiter     I'm not surprised. [02:41] (Flashback) Heiter     Many heroes have tried and failed     to defeat the Demon King until now. [02:47] (Flashback) Himmel     There's nothing wrong with     earning money to cover expenses [02:50] (Flashback) Himmel     while working toward     defeating the Demon King. [02:54] (Flashback) Himmel     It'll feel like an adventure. [02:56] (Flashback) Heiter     I suppose you're right. [02:58] (Flashback) Frieren     That's the Hero's Sword. [03:01] (Flashback) Heiter     It's a replica. [03:04] (Flashback) Himmel     Back in the day, a merchant who     visited my town gave it to me [03:07] (Flashback) Himmel     for saving him from a monster. [03:09] (Flashback) Himmel     "For the future hero," he said. [03:11] (Flashback) Himmel     Just something you'd say to a kid. [03:14] (Flashback) Frieren     Is that why you became a hero? [03:16] (Flashback) Himmel     No. [03:17] (Flashback) Himmel     There was this annoying brat named     Heiter at the village orphanage. [03:21] (Flashback) Himmel     He said I'd only ever become a fake hero     because all I had was a fake sword. [03:28] (Flashback) Himmel     So I decided I'd prove him wrong     by becoming a real hero. [03:34] (Flashback) Himmel     Someday, I'll acquire the real Hero's Sword     and defeat the Demon King. [03:41] (Flashback) Himmel     But the passage of time is cruel. [03:44] (Flashback) Himmel     The brat who said that to me is now     a fake priest who just drinks all the time. [03:50] (Flashback) Heiter     I'm a real priest. [04:12] Freiren     A dream... [04:13] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you're finally awake. [04:17] Frieren     I feel like I've seen this sight before. [04:21] Frieren     I must still be dreaming. [04:22] Stark     If only you were. [04:25] Frieren     I underestimated the mountain weather. [04:27] Frieren     Keep going north. The village     we're heading to is up ahead. [04:31] Fern     Very well. [04:33] Fern     Ms. Frieren, can you walk? [04:37] Frieren     No. [04:38] Fern     I see. [04:41] Frieren     You smell nice. [04:44] Fern     Sheesh. [04:45] Stark     You must be tired from carrying     her this whole time, Fern. [04:49] Stark     I'll take her now. [05:00] Fern     Perv. [05:04] Stark     How am I a perv? [05:08] Frieren     The blizzard has mostly settled down. [05:11] Frieren     I thought we'd freeze to death. [05:17] Stark     There really is a village this     deep in the mountains, huh? [05:23] Chief     We've been waiting for you, Ms. Frieren. [05:27] Frieren     You're the current village chief?     You're so young. [05:30] Chief     Yes. I'm the 49th in a long line of chiefs. [05:35] Chief     Welcome to the Village of the Sword. [05:40] Frieren     There was a destroyed cabin     outside the village. [05:43] Chief     It's an old hunting cabin. [05:46] Chief     The lord of the mountains destroyed it. [05:48] Frieren     The lord of the mountains?     Has there always been one of those? [05:52] Stark     So this is the Village of the Sword. [05:54] Fern     You know of this place, Mr. Stark? [05:57] Stark     This village used to protect the Hero's Sword. [06:01] Stark     The Hero's Sword was said to have been     placed in a sanctuary near this village. [06:08] Stark     Throughout history, many heroes tried to     pull it from the stone, but it wouldn't budge. [06:14] Stark     Not until eighty years ago, anyway. [06:19] Stark     According to the legend, uh... [06:22] Chief     "The Hero's Sword can only     be pulled from the stone [06:24] Chief     by the hero who will drive off the great     calamity bent on destroying this world." [06:28] Stark     Yeah, that's it. [06:30] Fern     And it was Mr. Himmel who     drew the sword from the stone? [06:33] Stark     That's right. I thought it was     a pretty famous story. [06:37] Stark     You hadn't heard it before? [06:39] Fern     No. Mr. Heiter never mentioned it. [06:44] Chief     This is it. [06:47] Frieren     So warm. [06:50] Chief     Anyway, I'm disappointed, Ms. Frieren. [06:53] Chief     You were supposed to return     half a century later. [06:56] Chief     I'm a mild-mannered person,     but even I'm pissed off. [07:01] Chief     At least, that's what my grandmother said. [07:05] Frieren     I told her eighty years would be fine. [07:09] Frieren     The people of this village, who've protected     the Hero's Sword for generations, [07:13] Frieren     can easily defend themselves. [07:15] Chief     That's true, but we still     need you to fulfill your duty. [07:21] Fern     What duty? [07:23] Frieren     Monster extermination. [07:24] Frieren     Monsters regularly appear around this village. [07:28] Chief     The lord of the mountain has been especially     unruly lately. It's been a real problem. [07:34] Frieren     Then I'll start tomorrow. [07:37] Frieren     Better to deal with this     sooner rather than later. [07:57] Stark     This area is full of monsters,     even though the village is nearby. [08:00] Fern     Why didn't you hire other     adventurers to exterminate them? [08:05] Chief     I wish we could, but... [08:08] Frieren     It's because Himmel is the hero. [08:11] Stark     You weren't kidding.     There sure are a lot of monsters. [08:15] Stark     They're gathered in front of that cave. [08:37] Stark     Frieren, is this— [08:47] Chief     It's the lord. [08:52] Frieren     I see. [08:53] Frieren     No wonder I didn't know who she meant.      It's a new face. [08:57] Frieren     Only eighty years, and you     consider yourself a lord? [09:02] Frieren     Stark, I know you can keep moving. [09:11] Stark     Can't you treat people better?! [09:19] Frieren     Nice work. [09:30] Frieren     Now I've fulfilled my duty. [09:37] Stark     Frieren, what's the meaning of this? [09:41] Stark     That's the Hero's Sword. [09:45] Frieren     It's what attracts all the monsters. [09:48] Frieren     A powerful barrier prevents them     from entering the sanctuary, [09:51] Frieren     but even so, they can't suppress     their impulse to destroy it. [09:55] Frieren     The Hero's Sword must truly terrify them. [09:58] Stark     That's not what I meant. [10:00] Frieren     Right. [10:06] Frieren     Himmel failed to pull     the sword from the stone. [10:11] (Flashback) Previous Chief     So this hero wasn't the real one either. [10:17] (Flashback) Heiter     Himmel... [10:19] (Flashback) Himmel     There's nothing wrong     with being a fake hero. [10:24] (Flashback) Himmel     I'll defeat the Demon King     and bring peace to the world. [10:29] (Flashback) Himmel     Then it won't matter if I'm fake or not. [10:37] Frieren     Himmel lived up to those words. [10:40] Frieren     Even without that sword, he saved the world. [10:43] Frieren     He was a real hero. [10:46] Fern     Then why was the truth covered up? [10:49] Frieren     It was probably done by people who     wanted to make Himmel a hero. [10:54] Frieren     No hero needs embarrassing     stories told about them, [10:56] Frieren     like the time they failed to pull     the Hero's Sword from its stone. [11:01] Frieren     Future generations always     romanticize heroes, [11:10] Frieren     to the point that their original     nature eventually disappears. [11:31] Chief     I always believed you     could do it, Ms. Frieren. [11:35] Chief     I'm hella grateful. [11:37] Chief     My grandmother said that as well. [11:39] Stark     What's up with the words     your grandma left you? [11:42] Frieren     Well, see you in another fifty years. [11:47] Chief     Don't be late next time. SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Appetit region, located in the northern lands [11:59] Frieren     Once we leave our belongings at the inn, [12:01] Frieren     everyone's free to do what     they want for the evening. [12:03] Stark     We haven't been to a town in a while. [12:04] Stark     We can finally cut loose. [12:07] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what will you do? [12:09] Fern     Shall we look around the shops together? [12:12] Frieren     I'll pass. [12:13] Frieren     I'd like to relax here at the inn     and read some grimoires. [12:16] Fern     I see. In that case, I'll go alone. [12:19] Frieren     Oh, right. [12:21] Frieren     Today is Stark's eighteenth birthday. [12:26] Fern     Why didn't you tell me that beforehand? [12:30] Fern     I didn't get him anything. [12:33] Frieren     You can buy something for him in town. [12:36] Fern     I don't know what Mr. Stark wants. [12:41] Frieren     You don't think things through, do you, Fern? [12:43] Fern     This is your fault, Ms. Frieren. [12:47] Fern     By the way, what are you giving him? [12:59] Frieren     I've got something special planned. [13:05] Frieren     A potion that only dissolves clothing. [13:08] Frieren     My master told me men enjoy     receiving this kind of gift. [13:20] Frieren     What? Are you curious, Fern? [13:27] Fern     I told you to return this vulgar     potion when you bought it. [13:34] Fern     I can't believe you, Ms. Frieren. [13:38] Frieren     That potion was pretty valuable, you know. [13:42] Frieren     What am I going to give him now? [13:59] Frieren     Oh, right. [14:02] Frieren     I have this. [14:06] Fern     I'll have to look into it myself. [14:09] Fern     He's bound to notice, though. [14:14] Fern     Mr. Stark. [14:20] Fern     Is he out? [14:25] Woman     A warrior carrying an axe? [14:28] Woman     He helped me push my cart. [14:31] Woman     I think he was headed toward the plaza. [14:36] Boy     He was playing with us until a moment ago. [14:40] Child     He helped us out of that tree. [14:45] Old Man     He stopped my rampaging cow. [14:49] Fern     He's been helping lots of people. [14:53] Fern     How could Ms. Frieren be so rude? [14:55] Fern     There's no way Mr. Stark would     appreciate that dirty potion. [15:18] Fern     Mr. Stark. [15:18] Stark     Whoa! [15:20] Stark     That cloud looks like boobs. [15:25] Fern/Id     He's a perv after all. [15:28] Stark     For real? That one looks like a turd. [15:32] Fern     No, he's just a child. [15:35] Stark     I'll have to tell Fern about them later. [15:37] Fern     How am I supposed to respond to that? [15:44] Fern     Mr. Stark. [15:47] Stark     Fern, good timing. Those clouds... [15:53] Stark     Actually, sorry. It's nothing. [15:58] Stark     Uh, so... [16:00] Fern     Would you like to go for a walk? [16:02] Stark     Yes. [16:05] Stark     Hey, why are you mad? Did I do something? [16:11] Fern     How do I broach the subject? [16:14] Stark     Come on. I'll apologize, okay? [16:17] Fern     No matter how I ask,     he'll know something's up. [16:19] Fern     Then I'll just come out and say it. [16:23] Fern     Mr. Stark, is there anything you want? [16:27] Stark     What for? [16:29] Fern     It's your birthday today. [16:32] Stark     Is that right? [16:33] Stark     What's that got to do with what I want? [16:38] Fern     I'd like to get you a birthday present. [16:41] Stark     What? You're gonna give me something? [16:44] Fern     Actually, never mind.     You're kind of irritating. [16:49] Stark     Wait. I wasn't joking. [16:53] Stark     I've never received a birthday present before. [17:01] Stark     I never got one from my     dead family or my master, [17:06] Stark     so I just thought that was how it was. [17:08] Fern     Not even from your family? [17:11] Fern     Was it not the custom there? [17:13] Stark     No, they probably just didn't     care about me that much. [17:19] Stark     I'm originally from a village of warriors. [17:22] Stark     There was no place there for the weak. [17:25] (Flashback) Stark Dad     That was a pathetic display     in front of that monster. [17:28] (Flashback) Stark Dad     Try to be more like Stoltz. [17:30] (Flashback) Stark Dad     Not only is he uninjured, but he doesn't     have a speck of blood or dirt on him. [17:37] (Flashback) Stark Dad     His pure white cape proves he's     the strongest warrior in the village. [17:42] (Flashback) Stark Dad     Stoltz, you're the pride of the village. [17:44] (Flashback) Stoltz     Of course, Dad. [17:50] (Flashback) Stark Dad     But by contrast, Stark is a failure. [17:53] (Flashback) Stark Dad     Despite training so hard every day,     he still hasn't faced down a monster. [18:03] (Flashback) Stark Dad     It's starting to rain. Let's head home. [18:06] (Flashback) Stoltz     I'm going to train my     foolish younger brother. [18:08] (Flashback) Stark Dad     Don't be too mean to him. [18:10] (Flashback) Stark Dad     I'm heading home. You're wasting your time. [18:17] (Flashback) Stoltz     Stark. [18:23] (Flashback) Young Stark     Brother. [18:28] (Flashback) Young Stark     Sorry. [18:30] (Flashback) Stoltz     Good focus. [18:34] (Flashback) Stoltz     I know you'll become stronger, but your     stance could use some improvement. [18:42] Stark     Come to think of it, my brother     might've been different. [18:46] Stark     But... [18:56] Stark     When my village was attacked by demons,     I abandoned even my brother and fled. [19:02] Stark     Maybe I shouldn't be surprised my family     never celebrated my birthday. [19:06] Stark     I was a failure who ran from everything. [19:11] Stark     I bet Himmel wouldn't have run. [19:18] Fern     Mr. Stark, let's go pick out a present. [19:24] Fern     The past doesn't matter. [19:26] Fern     The warrior Stark I've known has never run. [19:32] Stark     But I might in the future. [19:35] Fern     We won't let you. [19:37] Stark     But I— [19:38] Fern     If you won't choose, then I'm     choosing something for you. [19:44] Stark     Fine. [19:50] Stark     I'd like this, then. [19:51] Fern     No. That's expensive. [19:53] Stark     Okay. [20:03] Frieren     Welcome back. You're late. [20:06] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what are those     ridiculously large hamburg steaks? [20:10] Stark     What are you talking about? [20:12] Stark     This is how you celebrate a birthday. [20:15] Stark     My master never gave me any gifts, [20:17] Stark     but he did make me birthday hamburg steaks. [20:21] Fern     What do you mean? [20:22] Frieren     Stark, Eisen didn't tell you? [20:26] Stark     Tell me what? [20:28] Frieren     Warriors are so awkward. [20:30] Fern     You're one to talk, aren't you, Ms. Frieren? [20:33] Frieren     You're right. I understand     because I'm awkward, too. [20:36] Frieren     It's foolish, isn't it? [20:38] Frieren     People won't know how you feel     unless you tell them. [20:42] Frieren     This is... [20:46] (Flashback) Frieren     Come to think of it, [20:47] (Flashback) Frieren     you always make ridiculously large     hamburg steaks on our birthdays. [20:51] (Flashback) Frieren     What's that about? [20:53] (Flashback) Eisen     It's a custom in my region. [20:56] (Flashback) Eisen     They're a gift to honor warriors     who have worked hard. [21:01] (Flashback) Eisen     It's like a birthday present from me. [21:04] (Flashback) Himmel     But Eisen, we're not warriors. [21:08] (Flashback) Eisen     Everyone who works hard is a warrior. [21:11] (Flashback) Frieren     Really? [21:12] (Flashback) Heiter     Who can say? [21:14] Stark     Warriors who have worked hard... [21:18] (Flashback) Young Stark     Brother, what are you making? [21:21] (Flashback) Stoltz     Hamburg steak. It's your birthday, isn't it?

[22:32] Fern     I'll pour it over your     head again, Ms. Frieren. [22:35] Stark     Huh? What's that? [22:37] Fern     None of your business. [22:39] Frieren     A valuable potion. [22:41] Stark     What? What's it do? [22:43] Fern     Perv. [22:44] Stark     What? How am I a perv? [22:45] Fern     Perv. [22:46] Stark     Seriously, why?! [24:20] Heiter     Himmel! [24:20] Stark     My nose is starting to bleed. [24:21] Eisen     You're a wicked woman. [24:21] Fern     Alcohol is the best medicine. [24:23] Himmel     So what, Frieren? [24:23] Frieren     Too much time has passed.     Time I can't get back now. [24:24] Sein     Grown-ups are dirty by nature. [24:24] Seins Brother     He also likes older women.

[00:07] Sein     I wanted to be one a long time ago. [00:13] Sein     It was the kind of dumb     childhood dream everyone has. SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 13: Aversion to One's Own Kind SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Alt Woods, located in the northern lands [01:58] Sein     When I was a kid, [02:00] Sein     I had a friend who I joined     on lots of little adventures. [02:05] Sein     Foolhardy and with energy to spare,     he was like a gorilla. [02:10] Sein     That said, he was a good gorilla     who cared for his friends. [02:16] Sein     When I grew up and started     to forget that dream, [02:21] Sein     he invited me to become     an adventurer with him. [02:27] Sein     I wonder what would've changed     if I'd taken his hand then. [02:33] Sein     That was ten years ago. [02:36] Sein     I still regret it. [02:39] Frieren     Huh. [02:41] Frieren     So why are you telling me this? [02:44] Sein     My village's harvest festival is coming up. [02:48] Sein     My brother asked me to go into the woods     and pick wild herbs to use in cooking. [02:53] Sein     But then... [02:56] Sein     I got stuck in a bottomless swamp. [02:59] Sein     I'm done for. [03:03] Sein     But if you take my hand,     then maybe my fate will change. [03:10] Frieren     Hold on. I'm thinking about it. [03:15] Sein     What is there to think about? [03:18] Frieren     Your hand is dirty. [03:20] Sein     This is really not the time     to be worrying about that! [03:25] Sein     Besides, miss... [03:27] Sein     Grown-ups are dirty by nature. [03:33] Frieren     This might be my first time encountering     a physically dirty adult. [03:36] Frieren     Can I have some more time? [03:39] Frieren     I'm trying to remember the spell to pull     someone out of a bottomless swamp. [03:42] Sein     P-Please hurry. [03:45] Frieren     Let's see... [03:47] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [03:49] Fern     Did you find any herbs? [03:51] Frieren     Oh, I remember now. [03:59] Sein     This is far enough. [04:01] Fern     I'm sorry for the trouble     Ms. Frieren caused you. [04:04] Sein     It's fine. She saved me. [04:08] Fern     I'll give her an earful later. [04:12] Stark     Not my problem. [04:14] Sein     Anyway, are you sure you don't     need to stop by the village? [04:17] Sein     We're busy preparing for the harvest festival,     but I can at least thank you. [04:21] Frieren     We're hoping to reach a large     town today so we can resupply. [04:27] Sein     I see. In that case, be careful. [04:30] Sein     There are lots of dangerous     venomous creatures around here. [04:33] Frieren     Okay. [04:34] Stark     Got it. [04:45] Stark     Something bit me. [04:47] Fern     What? You were bitten? [04:49] Frieren     He told us to be careful.     What are you doing? [04:53] Fern     Let's stop the bleeding. [04:55] Stark     Huh? [04:57] Stark     My nose is starting to bleed. [05:01] Frieren     Identifying poison is a priest spell,     so I'm not too good at it. [05:06] Frieren     I don't recognize this reaction,     so the antidotes we have might not work. [05:11] Frieren     We should get you checked out at a church. [05:14] Fireren     Fern, how much longer can     you use your flying magic? [05:17] Fern     It consumes a lot of mana,     so only about thirty minutes. [05:21] Frieren     Thirty minutes won't get us to town. [05:25] Frieren     We'll head back to that village. [05:27] Frieren     I'll transport Stark. [05:29] Stark     It's not that big a deal. [05:31] Stark     I'm fine. [05:33] Stark     Besides, my master said     you can tough out poisons. [05:37] Frieren     Come to think of it, Eisen was perfectly     healthy even after taking several arrows [05:41] Frieren     that were coated with a poison     strong enough to knock out a dragon. [05:45] Frieren     Heiter was appalled. [05:48] Stark     See? [05:49] Fern     That just goes to show that Mr. Eisen     was far from normal. [05:54] Fern     Besides, according to Mr. Heiter,     20% of adventurer deaths are due to poison. [06:02] Fern     We should hurry. [06:04] Stark     I'm fine, really. [06:13] Seins Brother     It's too late. [06:15] Seins Brother     In a few hours, his brain     will begin to melt. [06:18] Seins Brother     It will flow out his nose, [06:21] Seins Brother     and then he'll die. [06:22] Stark     That's terrifying! [06:24] Fern     Isn't there anything we can do, Father? [06:27] Seins Brother     Normally, it can only be     cured if it's treated early, [06:32] Seins Brother     but perhaps my brother could help. [06:35] Sein     Brother, do you have a minute? [06:38] Sein     Don't you think this new     tub is kind of small? [06:40] Seins Brother     There's honor in poverty. [06:42] Sein     Isn't this going too far, though? [06:44] Sein     We're the only ones who impoverish     ourselves down to a hand-sized tub. [06:48] Seins Brother     More importantly, Sein,     take a look at this boy. [06:53] Sein     Huh? Brother, these are the      ones I told you about. [06:56] Sein     They're the people who rescued me. [07:00] Sein     Did you get bitten by a snake? [07:04] Sein     I told you to be careful. [07:11] Sein     Now we're even. [07:14] Sein     Brother, I'm going to help out at the plaza. [07:18] Seins Brother     Sure. [07:21] Stark     My nose stopped bleeding. [07:25] Fern     The effects of the poison are gone. [07:30] Frieren     Father, is he...? [07:33] Seins Brother     What do you think of my younger brother? [07:39] Frieren     That holy symbol around your neck [07:42] Frieren     is awarded to the most outstanding priest     in a region by the holy capital. [07:47] Frieren     He instantly cured a poison a     healing expert called incurable. [07:54] Frieren     He's a genius. [07:56] Seins Brother     I'm not surprised you noticed, Ms. Frieren. [07:59] Frieren     You know who I am? [08:02] Seins Brother     Mr. Heiter told me about you. [08:06] Seins Brother     He gave me this holy symbol when he came     here from the holy capital to observe us. [08:13] Seins Brother     That said, I'm a mere provincial priest. [08:17] Seins Brother     This is the only thing I can be proud of. [08:21] Seins Brother     But my ability doesn't compare to Sein's. [08:26] Seins Brother     Our parents passed away when we were young. [08:31] Seins Brother     Since then, I raised my much     younger brother myself. [08:36] Seins Brother     As a child, he often said he wanted     to become an adventurer. [08:42] Seins Brother     He didn't want to become [08:43] Seins Brother     an ordinary village priest like me     who spent every day the same way. [08:50] Seins Brother     He said that with his eyes     full of hopes and dreams. [08:54] Seins Brother     But now he's like I was when I was young. [08:59] Seins Brother     This life must bore him. [09:03] Seins Brother     Would you please take him     away from this village? [09:09] Seins Brother     I'm certain he's been looking for someone     to give him that last push. [09:18] Stark     I'm in, Frieren. [09:20] Stark     What's there to even think about? [09:24] Stark     I'm not risking my brains     flowing out my nose again. [09:28] Fern     It's true that the journey ahead     may be safer with a priest. [09:34] Fern     What do you not like about     the idea, Ms. Frieren? [09:38] Frieren     It's an aversion to my own kind, I guess. [09:42] Stark     What is she talking about? [09:44] Stark     I'm inviting him to join us,     even if you two don't want to. [09:51] Frieren     Where is he going? [09:52] Fern     Mr. Sein spends a lot of time     at the bar downstairs. [09:57] Frieren     What? [10:01] Stark     Alcohol. [10:03] Stark     Tobacco. [10:06] Stark     Gambling. [10:09] Stark     That's a bit too corrupt, don't you think? [10:12] Sein     I'm getting to know the people.     Care to join us? [10:16] Stark     It's Stark. We're looking for a priest. [10:21] Stark     Will you join us? [10:24] Sein     You must be joking.     I'm this village's priest. [10:28] Sein     I can't go on adventures. [10:32] Sein     No, I suppose that could be fun. [10:36] Sein     Have a seat, Stark. [10:38] Sein     If you can beat me, I'll join your party. [10:40] Stark     Really? [10:41] Sein     Yes, really. [10:46] Stark     Please, no! [10:50] Fern     Ms. Frieren, I think I heard     Mr. Stark scream downstairs. [11:04] Fern     Someone's taken all his belongings. [11:06] Fern     How awful. Who would do this? [11:09] Sein     No hard feelings. [11:11] Fern     What? [11:12] Sein     Grown-ups are dirty, after all. [11:16] Fern     Someone's taken all his belongings! [11:18] Sein     The village chief won the lot. [11:21] Sein     He's got the devil's own luck. [11:23] Frieren     Sein. [11:25] Sein     I heard you're looking for party members.     Ask someone else. [11:29] Frieren     You want to become an adventurer, don't you? [11:32] Sein     That was a long time ago. It's too late now. [11:37] Sein     I should've gone after him sooner. [11:41] Sein     The only person sitting here     is a loser in his underwear. [11:48] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, come defeat the Demon King with us. [11:52] (Flashback) Frieren     It's too late now. [11:54] (Flashback) Frieren     I haven't fought demons in over 500 years. [11:58] (Flashback) Frieren     I've forgotten how to fight them. [12:02] (Flashback) Frieren     I deferred the decision for too long. [12:06] (Flashback) Frieren     I was probably afraid to fight the Demon King. [12:10] (Flashback) Frieren     Too much time has passed.     Time I can't get back now. [12:14] (Flashback) Himmel     So what, Frieren? [12:17] Himmel     I'm talking about the present. [12:17] Frieren     I'm talking about the present. [12:29] Sein     Ask someone else. [12:31] Sein     You don't know how I feel. [12:34] Frieren     I see. That told me everything I need to know. [12:38] Frieren     I don't like you, Sein. [12:42] Sein     I see. In that case... [12:44] Frieren     So I've decided you'll join us,     no matter what. [12:49] Sein     What? Why? [12:52] Sein     That makes so little sense that it scares me. [12:55] Stark     Thanks. I feel warmer now. [13:00] Fern     I'm truly sorry for all the     trouble we caused. Excuse us. [13:07] Frieren     How much did it cost to get everything back? [13:09] Fern     He said we should take our time and     enjoy the harvest festival coming up, [13:13] Fern     and then he returned it all for free. [13:15] Frieren     Good thing they're nice people here. [13:18] Fern     He didn't know what to do with the axe. [13:20] Stark     That's kinda sad. [13:22] Fern     Mr. Stark, please put these on. [13:25] Stark     Do you have to hold them     like they're filthy? [13:29] Fern     Mr. Sein, these are yours. [13:35] Sein     What did I do to upset her? [13:38] Frieren     She's mad you took all     of Stark's belongings. [13:43] Sein     It wasn't me. It was the chief. [13:47] Fern     People who gamble are the worst. [13:50] Stark     I'm sorry, okay? [13:52] Fern     And Mr. Sein is supposed to be a priest. [13:55] Frieren     I'm not so sure about a priest who drinks. [13:58] Fern     Don't you know, Ms. Frieren? [14:00] Fern     Alcohol is the best medicine. [14:03] Frieren     What did you teach her, Heiter? [14:07] Frieren     Whether we recruit him or not,     Sein should become an adventurer. [14:13] Stark     You've really come around to the idea. [14:17] Frieren     I thought it might be nice to give     someone the push they need, [14:22] Frieren     like Himmel the Hero did for me. [14:28] Sein     Looks like the adventurers     have decided to stay in town. [14:40] Sein     They've been trying     to recruit me every day since. [14:47] Sein     All my efforts to make them stop     have been in vain. [14:52] Sein     They invite me on adventures with hopes and     dreams in their eyes, like he did back then. [15:00] Gorilla     I'm just going to travel around     the northern lands a bit. [15:04] (Flashback) Gorilla     I'll be back in time for the harvest     festival three years from now. [15:07] (Flashback) Gorilla     If you aren't ready now, you can come then. [15:12] Gorilla     Let's go on our next adventure together. [15:16] Sein     Every time they try to recruit me,     I wonder, "Why now?" [15:22] Sein     They shine too brightly for these tired eyes. [15:27] Seins Brother     You want to know what Sein likes? [15:30] Frieren     We've been struggling to win him over,     so we're looking for ideas. [15:34] Seins Brother     Well, he likes alcohol,     tobacco, and gambling... [15:39] Frieren     We know those already. [15:40] Stark     Are you sure he's a priest? [15:42] Fern     It seems Mr. Heiter was a     serious priest after all. [15:47] Frieren     What's a serious priest, anyway? [15:50] Seins Brother     He also likes older women. [15:55] Stark     He's a totally depraved priest. [15:57] Frieren     Older women, huh? [16:00] Frieren     Honestly, I don't know what     to do with that information. [16:05] Frieren     What? [16:08] Frieren     Oh, right. [16:10] Sein     Brother, don't you think     our new sickle is too small? [16:14] Sein     You can't even cut grass with... [16:16] Sein     Oh, it's you again. [16:21] Stark     Do you have a minute, Sein? [16:22] Sein     You're still here? [16:23] Stark     C'mon. [16:24] Sein     Don't make me say it again.     Ask someone else. [16:30] Stark     Sein, wouldn't you like to     travel with an older woman? [16:35] Sein     Are you stupid? [16:37] Sein     That's the whole reason I wanted     to become an adventurer as a kid. [16:42] Stark     Talk about impure motives. [16:43] Sein     So, where is this older woman? [16:48] Frieren     Right here, Sein. [16:50] Frieren     I'm an elf. I'm far older than you are. [16:57] Sein     Come to think of it, I think     my brother mentioned that. [17:05] Sein     But an older woman like that...     is no older woman at all! [17:09] Fern     He seems really distressed. [17:10] Frieren     Then you leave me with no choice. [17:13] Frieren     I didn't want to do this... [17:18] Frieren     but the time has come to use the seduction     technique my master taught me. [17:24] Frieren     Smooch. [17:30] Sein     What was that? [17:33] Frieren     I threw you a kiss. [17:35] Frieren     Maybe you're too young     to appreciate it, sonny. [17:38] Sein     Won't somebody please take this child home? [17:41] Stark     That was way too sexy. [17:43] Sein     What's wrong with you two? [17:44] Frieren     That's odd. When I tried it on Himmel,     it knocked him out cold. [17:53] (Flashback) Heiter     Himmel! [17:55] (Flashback) Eisen     You're a wicked woman. [17:57] Frieren     How strange. [17:58] Fern     I understand. [18:00] Fern     If I'd been the target,     I would have been in danger. [18:03] Stark     As depraved as he is, he's still a holy man. [18:05] Stark     A formidable foe. [18:07] Sein     Enough already. [18:09] Sein     I'm not becoming an adventurer. [18:12] Freiren     I thought you wanted to go after your friend. [18:16] Sein     Brother, you must understand. [18:19] Seins Brother     Sein... [18:21] Sein     He said he'd be back in three years. [18:25] Sein     Well, it's been ten. [18:28] Sein     He's obviously dead. [18:34] Frieren     So you're giving up without going to see him? [18:39] Frieren     It's only been ten years. [18:41] Frieren     If you don't go see him now,     you'll regret it in the near future. [18:45] Frieren     You'll wonder if you could've made it     in time if you'd gone now. [18:50] Sein     It's too— [18:51] Frieren     You think it's too late, don't you? [18:55] Frieren     I'm talking about the present, Sein. [19:05] Sein     I can't go for the same reason     I didn't follow him ten years ago. [19:11] Sein     I can't leave my brother     behind in this village. [19:17] Seins Brother     What are you talking about, Sein? [19:21] Sein     I overheard the conversation     you had with Mr. Heiter [19:24] Sein     when he came to observe us. [19:27] (Flashback) Heiter     With your talent, you could serve     as a priest in the holy capital. [19:33] (Flashback) Seins Brother     Me, in the holy capital? [19:35] (Flashback) Heiter     Yes, undoubtedly. [19:38] (Flashback) Seins Brother     What would happen to my brother then? [19:43] (Flashback) Heiter     He'd come with you, of course. [19:45] (Flashback) Seins Brother     I see. [19:48] (Flashback) Seins Brother     Mr. Heiter, I appreciate the offer, [19:52] (Flashback) Seins Brother     but my life in this village is comfortable. [19:57] (Flashback) Seins Brother     My brother lost his parents     when he was still young. [20:01] (Flashback) Seins Brother     As his older brother, [20:03] (Flashback) Seins Brother     I can't take his hometown from him, too. [20:11] (Flashback) Heiter     Very well. [20:14] (Flashback) Heiter     I understand. [20:16] (Flashback) Heiter     I suppose I wasted my time coming here. [20:19] (Flashback) Heiter     But since I'm already wasting time, [20:22] (Flashback) Heiter     perhaps I'll tell your brother     all about my adventures. [20:28] Sein     My brother stayed in this village for me. [20:34] Seins Brother     Sein, is that what you thought? [20:41] Seins Brother     We're not the same! [20:43] Seins Brother     I've never regretted the choice I made! [20:47] Seins Brother     But what about you? [20:50] Seins Brother     How long do you intend     to regret your choice? [20:53] Seins Brother     I've had enough. [21:10] Sein     I apologized to my brother. [21:13] Frieren     Okay. [21:15] Sein     Don't get the wrong idea.     He's a kind brother. [21:20] Sein     He never once hit me before, [21:23] Sein     but I made him hit me this time. [21:27] Sein     I'd never seen him with     that expression before. [21:34] Sein     Frieren, I've decided to     become an adventurer. [21:38] Sein     I'm going after my friend. [21:41] Sein     It's only been ten years, after all. [21:44] Frieren     I see. [21:51] Sein     I'm doing this so I can look for him. [21:55] Sein     I'll find him and make my stupid     childhood dream come true. [22:01] Sein     So I'm only traveling with you partway. [22:07] Stark     All right! [22:08] Fern     You did it. [22:15] Children     Bye! [22:16] Children     See you! [22:17] Children     Bye-bye! [22:18] Children     See you later!

[22:33] Sein     We all go there when we die. [22:35] Fern     Even you, Mr. Sein? [22:38] Sein     She really doesn't mince words, huh? [22:42] Stark     Good luck to us both. [22:46] Sein     Seriously, what's her deal? [24:20] Frieren     What do you mean by understanding relationships? [24:20] Fern     I don't like how accustomed you seem     to the company of women. [24:20] Stark     I'm pretty sure that would kill me. [24:22] Himmel     Let's go shopping together later. [24:23] Merchant     We help each other when we're in need.

[02:20] Stark     You're always so rude to me! [02:22] Stark     Do you really hate me that much? [02:24] Stark     Forget it! I'm going back to my master! [02:31] Stark     Would it kill her to listen     to me once in a while? [02:36] Sein     What's all the noise about? [02:38] Sein     Are the lovebirds fighting? [02:41] Frieren     It's Fern's birthday today,     but Stark didn't get her a present. [02:47] Frieren     Fern is furious. [02:48] Fern     Hmph. [02:51] Frieren     Honestly, I think you were too harsh today. [02:55] Frieren     You never listen to anything Stark says. [03:00] Sein     I didn't get her anything either. [03:03] Sein     Men don't care about little things     like birthdays and anniversaries. [03:10] Sein     Ow! [03:11] Sein     Okay, okay. I'll buy you something,     so stop kicking me. [03:14] Sein     My knees are gonna be sore later. [03:21] Sein     I feel sorry for Stark. [03:25] Sein     I'm old enough to let most callousness go, [03:29] Sein     but girls can make the emotions     of boys his age swing wildly. [03:39] Sein     I think you should go after him. [03:47] Freiren     Maybe you should go see him. [04:21] Sein     That's right. Her hair ornament has      a butterfly on it, too. [04:26] Fern     That's a cute pouch. [04:28] Sein     You don't like it? [04:29] Fern     I don't like how accustomed you seem      to the company of women. [04:33] Sein     I see. [04:35] Sein     Did you find Stark? [04:38] Fern     He was in the plaza. [04:40] Sein     But you couldn't talk to him, huh? [04:45] Sein     I get it. It's not that you don't like him. [04:48] Sein     You just don't know how to     interact with boys your age. [04:52] Sein     Ah, to be young. [04:54] Sein     No matter. Choose whatever you want. [04:57] Sein     We can check out other stores, too. [05:02] Fern     No, it's fine. [05:07] Sein     Then I'll choose something for you. [05:10] Sein     Anyway, even if he forgot to get you     a gift, I think you overreacted. [05:14] Sein     He's not that conscientious. [05:17] Sein     I doubt he even remembers his own birthday. [05:20] Sein     You shouldn't blame him. [05:23] Fern     I gave Mr. Stark a present on his birthday. [05:26] Sein     Really? Did you choose one with him? [05:30] Fern     How did you know? [05:32] Sein     Normally, no one declines when someone     offers to buy them whatever they want. [05:37] Sein     You must consider it an important memory. [05:41] Sein     That's why you said no. [05:43] Fern     I don't know. [05:45] Fern     I just felt like it. [05:49] Sein     I see. [05:51] Sein     Then go apologize to Stark     and pick out a gift with him. [05:58] Sein     He's just a kid. He's slow on the uptake. [06:03] Sein     You want to make up with him, don't you? [06:06] Sein     People won't know how you feel     unless you tell them. [06:13] Fern     You're right. [06:14] Sein     I'm heading back to the inn. [06:16] Fern     Um... [06:18] Fern     I'm sorry for kicking you. [06:37] Fern     Mr. Stark. [06:43] Stark     Fern. [06:50] Fern     I— [06:50] Stark     Sorry! [06:55] Stark     I wanted to choose a gift with you,     since I don't know what you like. [07:02] Stark     But I thought you'd get upset with me     again if I said that, so I couldn't. [07:10] Fern     I wouldn't be upset with you. [07:13] Fern     Mr. Stark, I'm sorry. I was too harsh. [07:20] Stark     It's fine. I'm used to it. [07:24] Fern     I'm really sorry. [07:29] Stark     Let's go. [07:32] Fern     Okay. [07:48] Sein     You're spying on them? [07:50] Sein     That's in poor taste, Frieren. [07:52] Frieren     Same to you, Sein. [07:55] Sein     Looks like they made up. [08:00] Sein     You understand relationships better     once you're older. [08:04] Sein     You start avoiding conflict then. [08:09] Sein     Those arguments are the     privilege of the young. [08:12] Sein     That can't have been easy for you, Frieren. [08:14] Sein     Looking after two kids sounds tough. [08:19] Frieren     What do you mean by     understanding relationships? [08:21] Sein     So it's three kids. [08:26] Sein     Fern asked me for advice instead of you. [08:31] Sein     I wonder who she's comparing me to. [08:36] Freiren     Fern was raised by Heiter. [08:39] Sein     She shouldn't be comparing me     to such a great priest. [08:44] Frieren     I'd hardly call him great. [08:46] Frieren     He was a drunk and often hungover. [08:49] (Flashback) Himmel     Has he become an undead? [08:51] Frieren     He was picky with his food, too. [08:53] (Flashback) Frieren     Quit it. [08:54] Frieren     And he lied all the time. [08:56] (Flashback) Heiter     I haven't had anything to drink. [08:58] Frieren     He was just a corrupt priest. [09:01] Freiren     You're even more depraved, though. [09:04] Sein     Sorry about that. [09:07] Sein     I'm surprised, though. [09:09] Sein     The Mr. Heiter I remember was     a kind and dependable old man. [09:15] Sein     Unlike me, he was an ideal grown-up. [09:21] (Flashback) Frieren     Heiter, you've changed. [09:23] (Flashback) Frieren     You've matured. [09:26] (Flashback) Heiter     What are you talking about? I'm an old man. [09:30] (Flashback) Heiter     It happens naturally as people age. [09:34] (Flashback) Frieren     Huh. [09:35] (Flashback) Heiter     I wish I could say that, anyway, [09:38] (Flashback) Heiter     but the truth is, my mind has     hardly changed since I was a child. [09:43] (Flashback) Heiter     I've simply been pretending to be an adult     until I can make it as an ideal grown-up. [09:51] (Flashback) Heiter     I'll probably keep pretending     until the day I die. [09:56] (Flashback) Heiter     Children need grown-ups     for emotional support. [10:02] (Flashback) Heiter     Fern in particular is the hardworking sort. [10:05] (Flashback) Heiter     She needs lots of praise and guidance. [10:09] (Flashback) Frieren     Then who will praise you for     pretending until the day you die? [10:15] (Flashback) Heiter     That's what the Goddess is for, [10:20] (Flashback) Heiter     though I'll have to wait until I go     to heaven to receive my reward. [10:23] (Flashback) Frieren     Then I'll praise you down here. [10:27] (Flashback) Heiter     You will? [10:29] (Flashback) Heiter     But I'm a human. I doubt you     understand how I feel. [10:35] (Flashback) Heiter     How do you intend to praise me? [10:48] (Flashback) Heiter     That was better than I expected. [10:52] (Flashback) Heiter     Frieren, once I go to heaven,     I'll speak with the Goddess for you. [10:58] (Flashback) Heiter     You should be praised by her. [11:03] (Flashback) Frieren     Oh? Then I'll look forward to it. [11:12] Sein     What do you think you're doing, Frieren? [11:14] Frieren     I think you're a proper adult, Sein. [11:23] Sein     I would've loved to have     an older woman do this. [11:27] Frieren     You should be glad, then. [11:29] Frieren     Few women are older than me. SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Bande Woods, located in the northern lands [11:41] Frieren     Thank you. [11:42] Frieren     There weren't any passenger carriages      around here, so we appreciate it. [11:46] Merchant     We help each other when we're in need. [11:48] Merchant     I'm actually a merchant in the town up ahead. [11:52] Merchant     I run an accessory shop there. [11:55] Merchant     Are you interested? [11:57] Frieren     You're a good salesman. [11:59] Frieren     I'm not too interested, but Fern     likes that kind of thing. Don't you? [12:04] Frieren     Huh? [12:06] Frieren     Did you buy a new bracelet? [12:09] Fern     Um, this is... [12:13] Frieren     That's a cute design. [12:15] Frieren     I have a ring with the same design. [12:18] Freiren     Himmel gave it to me. [12:21] Frieren     It probably matches yours. [12:23] Fern     Really? [12:24] Frieren     Now where did I put it? [12:29] Frieren     Huh? [12:33] Fern     You're so disorganized. [12:37] Frieren     Found it. [12:51] Freiren     Sorry. I let my guard down. [12:55] Freiren     Avian monsters are cunning     and skilled at concealing their mana. [13:00] Freiren     What are we going to do? [13:03] Stark     Can't we figure something out with flying     magic after defeating the monster? [13:09] Stark     You can make a carriage levitate, right? [13:12] Frieren     Stark, have you ever seen a flying carriage? [13:15] Stark     We're in one right now. [13:17] Frieren     This may surprise you, but it's only been     forty years since humankind learned to fly. [13:25] Frieren     Until then, the skies were the     exclusive domain of demons and monsters. [13:29] Frieren     The flying magic we use is     a repurposed demon spell. [13:35] Stark     Spare me the details and     dumb it down for me. [13:40] Frieren     It means we can't adapt it     because we copied their technique [13:42] Frieren     without understanding     the principles behind it. [13:45] Frieren     Things larger than humans     can only be made to fly briefly. [13:49] Stark     I see. [13:50] Frieren     We'll have to get out. [13:53] Frieren     I'll fly out with the merchant. [13:55] Frieren     Fern, could you take Sein? [13:57] Fern     Understood. [13:58] Merchant     I'll get my cargo together. [14:01] Stark     What about me? [14:03] Frieren     You can jump down. [14:05] Stark     What are you talking about? [14:06] Stark     I'm pretty sure that would kill me. [14:08] Frieren     You're a warrior. A fall from     this height won't kill you. [14:11] Stark     Of course it would kill me! [14:13] Stark     Don't act like you don't understand that! [14:15] Frieren     That's odd. [14:17] Frieren     Eisen was never injured by     a free fall from any height. [14:29] (Flashback) Heiter     What is wrong with him? [14:31] Frieren     Heiter was appalled. [14:33] Fern     That just goes to show that Mr. Eisen     was far from normal. [14:38] Fern     What about levitating the carriage     just before it hits the ground? [14:43] Frieren     I'll need to calculate     if I can stop a free fall. [14:47] Frieren     If I don't reduce the force sufficiently,     we'll be ground into minced meat. [14:51] Stark     That sounds horrifying! [14:54] Sein     Either way, we should probably hurry. [14:57] Sein     This type of monster hunts by     slamming its prey into the ground. [15:03] Frieren     I see. [15:16] Frieren     Well, it's worth a shot. [15:20] Stark     Don't just drop us! [15:35] Fern     W-We're alive. [15:37] Frieren     It seems like the plan was a success. [15:40] Stark     You call that a success? [15:41] Sein     You call that a plan? [15:46] Sein     The horse is only slightly injured.     I've finished treating it. [15:50] Sein     But the carriage is a wreck.     It needs repairs. [15:53] Frieren     Sorry. [15:54] Merchant     No, thank you. [15:56] Merchant     If it'd just been me, I'd be dead. [15:59] Stark     It'll take a while to fix the carriage. [16:16] Freiren     Huh? [16:18] Frieren     That's odd. [16:20] Frieren     Where did it go? [16:25] Stark     It's gotten warmer lately. [16:28] Fern     Should we start dressing lighter? [16:30] Sein     By the way, Fern, that bracelet... [16:34] Fern     It was a birthday present from Mr. Stark. [16:38] Stark     I spent three hours choosing a gift. [16:41] Sein     You ended up choosing it? [16:43] Fern     I asked him to choose what he wanted. [16:46] Sein     Oh, I see. [16:49] Sein     That must've been difficult, Stark. [16:51] Sein     Her type is the hardest to deal with. [16:54] Stark     Yeah. [16:56] Stark     Will she like this? [16:59] Stark     I spent three hours gauging her reactions. [17:02] Stark     I felt like I was dying. [17:04] Sein     Poor kid. [17:07] Fern     I can hear everything they're saying. [17:09] Stark     But... [17:11] Stark     I'm glad I did, since she likes it. [17:19] Sein     Anyway, good going, Stark. [17:21] Sein     I didn't think you knew what you were doing. [17:25] Sein     That design is of a mirrored lotus. [17:27] Sein     In the language of flowers,     it means "eternal love." [17:29] Sein     In this area, people give them     to their lovers. [17:34] Fern     Mr. Stark? [17:36] Stark     I-I didn't know! [17:38] Stark     This is all a misunderstanding. [17:39] Stark     You think I know the language of flowers? [17:41] Fern     That's fair enough. You're an idiot, after all. [17:44] Stark     You're being even harsher than usual! [17:47] Stark     It's not like you knew either. [17:49] Fern     Did you say something? [17:51] Stark     It's nothing. [17:54] Stark     Should I buy you a replacement? [17:57] Fern     You put a lot of effort into     choosing this gift for me. [18:02] Fern     Don't ever say that again. [18:05] Stark     Sorry. [18:12] Fern     What is it? [18:15] Sein     Nothing. [19:21] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [19:24] Fern     We've finished repairing the carriage. [19:26] Fern     We'll depart early tomorrow morning. [19:29] Frieren     I see. [19:30] Fern     You've been slipping out every night. [19:33] Fern     What are you looking for? [19:35] Frieren     The ring Himmel gave me. [19:38] Fern     I'll help. [19:40] Fern     We'll wait to depart until we've found it. [19:43] Frieren     No. [19:45] Frieren     If I don't find it tonight,     I'll give up on it. [19:48] Frieren     I'm used to losing things. [19:50] Frieren     Besides, that's not the     only thing Himmel gave me. [19:54] Fern     Wasn't it a mirrored-lotus     design ring like this one? [19:58] Fern     In the language of flowers,     it means "eternal love." [20:01] Frieren     Does it? I didn't know. [20:04] Frieren     It doesn't matter. I doubt Himmel     knew what it meant either. [20:09] Fern     Regardless, I'm sure it's important. [20:13] Fern     Let's look for it together. [20:18] Merchant     You should've told me. [20:21] Merchant     A few people in my village have     lost accessories over the years. [20:26] Merchant     I intended to give you this spell     for finding lost accessories [20:30] Merchant     as a reward for your assistance. [20:55] Himmel     Frieren. [20:57] (Flashback) Himmel     You worked really hard on     that last monster-hunting job. [21:01] (Flashback) Himmel     Choose whatever you'd like. [21:03] (Flashback) Frieren     An accessory, huh? [21:06] (Flashback) Frieren     I would've preferred     something from a magic shop. [21:09] (Flashback) Frieren     This one will do. [21:10] (Flashback) Himmel     That was quick. Put more thought into it. [21:16] (Flashback) Frieren     What's wrong? [21:19] (Flashback) Himmel     Nothing. [21:41] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren. [21:43] (Flashback) Frieren     Thank you. [22:22] Fern     Aren't you glad you didn't     give up, Ms. Frieren? [22:33] Frieren     Maybe. [22:38] Frieren     By the way, why are you wearing     a mirrored-lotus bracelet? [22:42] Fern     Because Mr. Stark is an idiot. [22:46] Stark     How could you say that? [24:20] Sein     I have battle magic, too. [24:20] Fern     I feel anxious. [24:21] Orden     He doesn't have his brother's talent. [24:22] Mut     Yes, Father. [24:22] Frieren     This is starting to look bad. [24:23] Sein     In any case, it looks like we should hurry. [24:24] Stark     It's hell. [24:26] Frieren     This smells like trouble. SIGN    Episode 15                                        Smells like Trouble [24:28] Frieren     Let's head to the next village.

SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 15: Smells Like Trouble SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Laub Hills, located in the northern lands [01:48] Sein     How long have you been traveling together? [01:52] Frieren     Um... [01:54] Fern     I first embarked on my journey with     Ms. Frieren about four years ago. [01:59] Stark     It's been about a year for me. [02:04] Sein     I see. [02:10] Sein     There's something this party lacks. [02:14] Sein     What do you think that is? [02:17] Frieren     We've got a front-liner, mages, and a priest. [02:21] Fern     A thief, perhaps? [02:23] Fern     Since Ms. Frieren is always     falling for mimics. [02:26] (Flashback) Freiren     Aw, yeah. [02:28] (Flashback) Fern     Oh, come on. [02:30] Frieren     Treasure chests contain unlimited potential. [02:34] Sein     No. [02:36] Sein     What we lack is something     even more important. [02:39] Sein     An older lady! [02:41] Sein     Most parties have at least     one sexy older lady! [02:47] Frieren     Do they? [02:49] Stark     But we've got Frieren. [02:52] Sein     No. She's not an older lady. [02:55] Fern     He looks so distraught. [02:56] Frieren     Sorry about that. [02:59] Stark     H-Hey, the next village is coming into view. [03:19] Fern     They're breathing. [03:21] Sein     Same over here. [03:24] Stark     What's going on here? Everyone's asleep. [03:29] Frieren     This smells like trouble. [03:32] Frieren     Let's head to the next village. [03:33] Fern     Don't make me angry, Ms. Frieren. [03:36] Frieren     I'm just kidding. [03:39] Sein     It's a curse. [03:40] Frieren     I thought so. What a hassle. [03:44] Stark     Hey, Frieren. What are curses? [03:47] Frieren     Among the spells cast by monsters and demons [03:51] Frieren     are those that put people to sleep     or turn them to stone. [03:55] Frieren     Those which humankind has yet     to unravel are known as curses. [04:02] Frieren     Humanity's magic can't explain the principles     behind them or how to remove them. [04:07] Stark     Does that mean it's too late for this village? [04:10] Frieren     I'm only talking about humanity's magic. [04:14] Frieren     The magic of the Goddess,     which priests use, is a different story. [04:18] Frieren     Tackling curses has long been     the business of the clergy. [04:23] Frieren     Well, Sein? Think you can help them? [04:26] Sein     Don't rush me. [04:28] Sein     I'm currently determining the     type and source of the curse. [04:34] Stark     How is the magic of the Goddess     different from other magic? [04:38] Frieren     The magic of the Goddess     is recorded in holy scriptures [04:42] Frieren     and can only be used by     the owners of said scriptures. [04:45] Frieren     Like the demons' magic, we don't understand     the principles behind most of it, [04:50] Frieren     so it's not very interesting. [04:54] Frieren     And it's difficult to use unless you're born     with the specific knack for it, [05:00] Frieren     which also bestows an     increased resistance to curses. [05:04] Frieren     I believe they call it     "the blessing of the Goddess." [05:08] Frieren     Anyway, that's why priests     are strong against curses. [05:12] Stark     So not even you can effectively     defend against curses? [05:16] Frieren     Mages can't detect curses. [05:20] Frieren     I can sense I'm being attacked in some way, [05:22] Frieren     so I know this village is still under     the effects of the curse. [05:27] Fern     I feel anxious. [05:28] Stark     Does that mean we're actively     being cursed? I'm scared! [05:34] Sein     I've determined that it's     a rather unusual curse. [05:38] Frieren     You can't remove it? [05:40] Sein     I'd need tools to conduct     a specialized ritual. [05:43] Sein     It'd be faster to defeat     the source of the curse. [05:47] Sein     It's coming from a monster.     I've determined its location. [05:50] Sein     Let's go. [05:52] Frieren     That'll save time. [05:57] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [05:59] Fern     It's Mr. Stark. [06:04] Frieren     He's asleep. [06:06] Frieren     Can you wake him temporarily? [06:09] Sein     With my current abilities, five seconds     is the longest I can keep him awake. [06:14] Fern     That's practically nothing. [06:16] Sein     In any case, it looks like we should hurry. [06:41] Frieren     Fern won't wake up. [06:43] Frieren     She said she was just taking a little break. [06:46] Sein     So Fern has fallen asleep, too. [06:48] Frieren     This is starting to look bad. [06:53] Frieren     I put up a barrier. [06:55] Frieren     We'll hide them in here. [07:01] Sein     We're almost there. I can tell it's close. [07:05] Frieren     I see. [07:06] Frieren     Sein, wake me when the monster shows up. [07:11] Frieren     Don't fight it alone. [07:14] Frieren     I promise I'll defeat it. [07:16] Sein     I told you, five seconds     is the longest I can... [07:21] Sein     Frieren? [07:24] Sein     We can't do anything with five seconds. [07:34] Sein     Fine. [07:36] Sein     I have battle magic, too. [07:57] Sein     It's a subspecies of chaos flower. [07:59] Sein     It must be feeding off     the sleeping villagers. [08:04] Sein     It'll sap away their mana     until it eventually kills them. [08:12] Sein     Chaos flowers merge with the     local flora to create subspecies. [08:19] Sein     It's like a mirror. [08:21] Sein     But no matter what they look like,     their weakness is always their core. [08:29] Sein     Three Spears of the Goddess! [08:40] Sein     What happened? [08:42] Sein     Did it reflect my magic? [08:46] Sein     Unless I score a direct hit on the core, [08:49] Sein     the leaves could deflect     my spells in any direction. [08:54] Sein     If I'm not careful, it could hit Frieren. [08:58] Sein     Damn it. This can only get worse. [09:01] Sein     Should I wake Frieren? [09:03] Sein     But she's the mage from the party of heroes. [09:06] Sein     If a powerful spell were deflected, [09:08] Sein     it could destroy not just the forest,     but the village, too. [09:13] Sein     It's just five seconds. [09:15] Sein     That's not enough time to explain. [09:16] Sein     And Frieren and I haven't had the time     to establish a mutual understanding [09:20] Sein     or learn to trust each other. [09:22] Sein     I don't even know what Frieren's thinking. [09:28] Heiter     That's right. [09:30] (Flashback) Heiter     I never know what she's thinking. [09:34] (Flashback) Heiter     I don't believe adventurers require     mutual understanding or trust. [09:41] (Flashback) Heiter     My companion Frieren was     especially terrible at both. [09:48] (Flashback) Heiter     So I decided to trust her words. [09:54] (Flashback) Heiter     She swore she would defeat the Demon King, [09:58] (Flashback) Heiter     and I chose to believe her. [10:02] Sein     Trust her words, huh? [10:11] (Flashback) Frieren     Don't fight it alone. [10:13] (Flashback) Frieren     I promise I'll defeat it. [10:17] Sein     She looked like a mess. [10:20] Sein     Don't blame me for whatever happens! [10:23] Sein     Awakening spell! [10:28] Sein     Frieren, only the core— [10:51] Frieren     Got it. [11:05] Stark     What's going on here? [11:10] Lady     Thank you. [11:12] Lady     I won't forget this. [11:14] Sein     We didn't do much. [11:18] Lady     No. [11:20] Lady     I've never been happier to be     awakened, thanks to you. [11:28] Frieren     The moment I woke up, I knew that it     was the kind that reflects magic. [11:34] Sein     You really are an incredible mage. [11:37] Frieren     But we made it out alive     because of you, Sein. [11:42] Frieren     Thanks. [11:49] Frieren     Good boy. [11:57] Sein     That lady from the village sure was pretty. [12:00] Stark     You're still saying that? [12:03] Stark     That's Vorig? SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     at the fortress city of Vorig, located in the northern lands [12:06] Frieren     It's the relay point to Äußerst. [12:10] Fern     We're finally halfway there? [12:12] Fern     This really is a long journey. [12:15] Frieren     We'll resupply in Vorig, and— [12:18] Fern     Ms. Frieren, this is awkward,     but we're nearly out of funds. [12:24] Orden     Hey, you. [12:25] Sein     What is it? [12:29] Stark     That's a noble's carriage. [12:32] Stark     Huh? [12:34] Stark     What? What's going on? [12:37] Orden     You've got a nice body.     Your appearance isn't too bad either. [12:40] Orden     Come to my mansion. [12:43] Stark     What's going on?! [12:52] Orden     What's your name? [12:54] Stark     Stark. [12:56] Frieren     Lord Orden, you can't do this. [12:59] Orden     You know who I am? [13:01] Frieren     This is the mansion of the Orden family, [13:04] Frieren     one of the Three Great Families     of the northern lands. [13:06] Frieren     Your grandfather was a high-handed man, too. [13:09] Orden     What is this nonsense? [13:12] Orden     Either way, I'm having a conversation     with Stark right now. [13:16] Frieren     He's my party's front-liner. [13:20] Orden     Stark, do you need your mommy's     permission to have a conversation? [13:25] Stark     Please don't fight. [13:27] Orden     I have a request. I'll pay you. [13:30] Frieren     This is ridiculous. We're leaving, Stark. [13:33] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [13:39] Frieren     What are those copper coins? [13:41] Sein     They're all the funds we have left. [13:45] Frieren     I guess we can at least hear you out. [13:48] Stark     Frieren... [13:53] Orden     Stark, where are you from? [13:57] Stark     A warrior village in the Klee region     of the central lands. [14:00] Orden     I see. My family line is originally     from that village, too. [14:10] Orden     My eldest son, Wirt. [14:12] Orden     My heir and hero of this city. [14:16] Fern     He looks like you, Mr. Stark. [14:19] Orden     You're practically identical. [14:21] Orden     If we got you cleaned up, [14:23] Orden     only someone from within the family     would be able to tell the difference. [14:26] Frieren     What does that have to do with your request? [14:30] Orden     A month ago, we fought a     large battle against demons. [14:35] Orden     Wirt died in action. [14:37] Orden     He and the enemy commander     killed each other. [14:41] Orden     The silver lining was that     it was a large-scale melee. [14:47] Orden     The only ones who know of Wirt's death     are Gabel over there [14:51] Orden     and a few of my most trusted men. [14:56] Frieren     What are you planning to make Stark do? [15:02] Orden     The fortress city of Vorig is key     to this region's defense. [15:07] Orden     We can't allow morale to fall while     we're rebuilding the forces we lost. [15:12] Sein     So you want to cover up     your son's death until then. [15:16] Orden     Three months from now, this region's     influential figures will meet at a soirée. [15:21] Orden     We'll show them that Wirt is alive and well. [15:25] Frieren     How much will you pay us? [15:26] Orden     Ten Strahl gold coins. [15:29] Fern     That's three meals a day     plus snacks for a year. [15:32] Frieren     Throw in a grimoire. [15:34] Orden     You can take one of your     choosing from the library. [15:36] Stark     Hold on. I can't do this. [15:39] Stark     What am I gonna do about     this scar on my forehead? [15:41] Orden     The people already believe     Wirt is recuperating. [15:46] Orden     That's an honorable battle scar. [15:51] Fern     Mr. Stark, we need the money. [15:54] Stark     This is sad. [15:56] Orden     Gabel, teach Stark proper etiquette. [16:26] Fern     Mr. Stark, how is your etiquette     training coming along? [16:29] Stark     It's hell. [16:39] Stark     What do you think? [16:42] Fern     It doesn't suit you. [16:43] Stark     That's not nice. [16:45] Stark     I'm gonna get some fresh air. [16:56] Stark     Lord Orden. [16:59] Orden     Aren't I always telling you     to call me "Father"? [17:02] Orden     You never know when someone     might be watching. [17:05] Stark     Aren't you being too cold? [17:08] Stark     It's been less than two months     since your son died. [17:11] Orden     I'm simply following my son's final wishes. [17:15] Orden     I even had a double prepared. [17:18] Orden     He didn't look as much like him     as you do, though. [17:22] Orden     I can't say I enjoy this. [17:28] Orden     But it's what my son wanted. [17:32] Orden     I'll need your cooperation. [17:36] Stark     You're so awkward. [17:43] Orden     Mut, stand up taller. [17:46] Mut     Yes, Father. [17:49] Orden     My second son, Mut. [17:51] Orden     He's to be my heir, but he     shows little improvement. [17:55] (Flashback) Stark Dad     But by contrast, Stark is a failure. [18:03] Orden     Skill with a sword affects one's posture. [18:06] Orden     I'll teach you the Orden family technique. [18:14] Orden     What's wrong? [18:21] Orden     It's all right. Take deep breaths. [18:25] Orden     This isn't your village. [18:31] Stark     Lord Orden, what do you think of Mut? [18:34] Orden     He doesn't have his brother's talent. [18:38] Orden     But he's a hard worker. [18:40] Orden     What he's worked to build up     won't let him down. [18:44] Orden     Someday he'll become     a stronger knight than me. [18:48] Stark     I see. [18:50] Stark     You should tell that to Mut. [18:53] Orden     I do. [18:55] Orden     But it's gone to his head,     so he doesn't improve. [18:59] Stark     Now that's a problem. [19:02] Fern     What? [19:04] Fern     I have to learn etiquette, too? [19:06] Orden     It's a soirée. [19:08] Orden     You expect a young man to attend it alone? [19:14] Orden     Or will his mommy escort him instead? [19:18] Frieren     Good luck. [19:53] Fern     This past month has been hell. [19:57] Stark     We need the money, right? [20:00] Fern     I'm sorry. [20:11] Stark     We practiced. We might as well dance. [20:16] Fern     That really doesn't suit you. [21:28] Sein     Shall we dance as well? [21:31] Frieren     I'm going to eat cake. [21:34] Sein     I see. [21:40] Orden     If not for this injury,     I would've been in the vanguard. [21:46] Orden     Perhaps then, Wirt wouldn't have died. [21:49] Gabel     Milord... [21:54] Orden     Looks like the soirée is over. [21:59] Orden     You've completed the job. [22:01] Orden     Gabel, give Frieren her reward. [22:13] Orden     Stark, you're an incredibly     powerful warrior. [22:18] Orden     If you'd like— [22:20] Stark     I can't replace your son. [22:24] Orden     You're right. [22:26] Orden     And I can't replace your father. [22:30] Orden     But you don't have a home to return to. [22:33] Orden     The warrior village of the Klee region     was destroyed by demons. [22:36] Orden     I know that much. [22:40] Orden     My son and I parted in anger. [22:43] Orden     We got into an argument     over something trivial. [22:46] Orden     I told him I never wanted     to see his face again. [22:53] Orden     I didn't mean it. [22:58] Orden     When I found you,     I thought it was a miracle. [23:06] Stark     All the more reason I can't stay here. [23:10] Stark     I said something I didn't mean, too, [23:13] Stark     to the man who raised me. [23:16] Stark     So I have to bring him back     stories of my travels. [23:23] Orden     I see. [23:30] Frieren     Which grimoire should     I choose for my reward? [23:34] Fern     Ms. Frieren, it's been half a day. [23:38] Fern     You're distressing Mr. Gabel. [23:40] Gabel     Please hurry up. [23:42] Fern     Look. All the life has left him. [23:46] Sein     It'll be some time until     they rebuild their forces. [23:53] Sein     What is it? [23:57] Stark     Nothing. [24:02] Stark     At the very least, he won't     have to worry about his heir. [24:20] Sein     Forgotten heroes, huh? [24:21] Stubborn     They're forgotten heroes.     No one even knows their names. [24:23] Stark     He's totally decrepit. [24:23] Fern     He's been alone this whole time.

SIGN    Beyond Journey's End SIGN    Episode 16: Long-Lived Friends SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Klar region, located in the northern lands [03:03] Stark     Is he really a strong warrior? [03:06] Frieren     He's a dwarf who's protected the village     we're heading to for almost 400 years. [03:10] Fern     What's the life expectancy of dwarves? [03:14] Sein     About 300 years. [03:16] Frieren     His name is Old Man Voll. [03:18] Frieren     He's a long-lived friend of mine. [03:21] Frieren     I want to chat with him before he dies. [03:24] Stark     That's not funny. [03:26] Fern     But it's true that there aren't many people     who can talk about the past with you. [03:33] Fern     Perhaps a detour like this one     isn't so bad once in a while. [03:37] Frieren     Maybe I'll stay for a decade or so. [03:40] Fern     We're staying one week at most. [04:03] Sein     That's the village? [04:11] Frieren     Old Man Voll. [04:13] Frieren     It's been a while. [04:16] Frieren     Well? Doesn't he seem cool,     like an old, seasoned warrior? [04:21] Stark     He's way beyond old. [04:25] Voll     Remind me. Who are you? [04:28] Stark     He's totally decrepit. [04:30] Frieren     It's me, Frieren. [04:34] Voll     Ah, yes. [04:38] Frieren     You're still pretending to be senile? [04:44] Stark     Huh? [04:48] Voll     Most deaths in battle     are due to carelessness. [04:53] Voll     It's the greatest weakness     of both demons and people. [04:58] Voll     Can't stand, can you? [05:00] Voll     Even the most experienced warriors     can easily suffer fatal injuries [05:04] Voll     if they're not attempting     to defend themselves. [05:09] Voll     If I'd drawn my sword then,     you'd be short one leg. [05:14] Frieren     Your strategies are as underhanded as ever. [05:18] Voll     Frieren.

[05:35] Stark     Okay. [05:36] Sein     He's one heck of an old man. SIGN    You're welcome to use this firewood. [05:43] Frieren     I'd like to stay here for a decade.     Find us some work. [05:47] Fern     Ms. Frieren, we're only     staying up to one week. [05:51] Frieren     Okay, fine. [06:09] Villager A     It's a small village. [06:11] Villager A     No one else would take the job,     so I appreciate it. [06:15] Fern     It's not like we have anything else to do. [06:18] Villager A     Anyway, I had no idea     Old Man Voll had friends. [06:22] Villager A     I've never seen him converse     so happily before. [06:26] Villager A     He's a senile old man. [06:28] Villager A     Normally he struggles     to hold a conversation. [06:31] Villager A     He's protected the village from monsters and     demons for years, but nobody knows why. [06:39] Villager A     He's like our protective deity. [06:42] Fern     He's been alone this whole time. [07:24] Frieren     A week flies by, doesn't it? [07:26] Frieren     How is Stark? [07:29] Voll     Humans develop quickly. [07:32] Voll     He's improved a fair bit. [07:34] Frieren     I see. [07:37] Frieren     I had fun, Old Man Voll. [07:41] Frieren     I'm really grateful to you now. [07:45] Frieren     You're the reason I got to know     Himmel and the others. [07:50] (Flashback) Himmel     Old Man Voll, why do you     defend this village? [07:54] (Flashback) Voll     It's ancient history now. [07:57] (Flashback) Voll     It doesn't matter. [08:00] (Flashback) Himmel     People don't risk their lives     for things that don't matter. [08:07] (Flashback) Voll     I'm just defending the village my wife loved. [08:17] (Flashback) Voll     She was a human. [08:20] (Flashback) Voll     I'm merely keeping the promise     I made a long time ago. [08:29] (Flashback) Voll     But I won't say more on the subject. [08:33] (Flashback) Voll     I couldn't adequately describe     her face, or voice, or eyes. [08:39] (Flashback) Voll     This is my memory alone. [08:44] (Flashback) Voll     It's silly, isn't it? [08:47] (Flashback) Voll     I've been keeping a promise     I made to a dead woman. [08:53] (Flashback) Himmel     You're right. [08:56] (Flashback) Himmel     But I'm sure she's glad     you're keeping your promise. [09:06] (Flashback) Voll     Himmel, you're a good hero.

[10:01] (Flashback) Himmel     Later, I'll have to show you [10:03] (Flashback) Himmel     the collection of handsome poses     I came up with. [10:07] (Flashback) Frieren     Actually, maybe I won't remember you. [10:13] Frieren     I probably didn't need that collection     of handsome poses after all. [10:17] Frieren     I wasted my memory. [10:20] Voll     Do you remember that hero's face? [10:24] Frieren     Of course I do. [10:26] Voll     And his voice? [10:30] Frieren     Don't insult me. [10:32] Frieren     I remember everything. [10:34] Frieren     Himmel is the reason I decided     I'd get to know people. [10:38] Frieren     Like your reason for defending this village, [10:42] Frieren     it's important to me. [10:45] Voll     I see. A reason, huh? [10:50] Voll     I can't remember anymore. [10:54] Voll     Not her face, nor her voice, nor her eyes. [11:00] Voll     But I continue defending this village     for an important something. [11:10] Frieren     You're quite the jokester, Old Man Voll. [11:15] Voll     By the way, where are you headed? [11:20] Frieren     We're heading to Aureole,     the land where souls rest. [11:25] Voll     Where is that? [11:27] Frieren     Ende, where the Demon King's castle is. [11:31] Voll     I see. [11:34] Voll     So you're finally off     to defeat the Demon King. [11:40] Voll     I hope that brings peace to the land. [11:49] Frieren     Old Man Voll, the Demon King is... [12:03] Voll     What is it? [12:06] Frieren     I'll carry your memory into the future, too. [12:15] Voll     I wouldn't mind that. [12:22] Voll     I'm glad I got to see you     at the end of my life. [12:26] Frieren     You said the same thing eighty years ago. [12:39] Frieren     Goodbye, Old Man Voll. Take care. [12:44] Voll     Frieren. [12:47] Voll     I dreamed of my wife. [12:50] Frieren     I see. [12:52] Voll     Maybe it's because you and I     reminisced about the past. [12:59] Frieren     See you later. SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     on Rohr Road, located in the northern lands [13:23] Frieren     Were you asking him something? [13:24] Sein     I'm looking for someone. [13:28] Sein     You remember why I'm on     this journey, don't you? [13:32] Stark     Isn't it to travel with a sexy older woman? [13:36] Sein     That's important, too. [13:40] Sein     But this is the goal of my journey. [13:43] Sein     To reunite with my friend     who departed ten years ago. [13:47] Frieren     Oh, right. [13:50] Stark     A photo? You don't see those often. [13:54] Sein     It was taken by a mage who visited     my village a long time ago. [13:59] Frieren     Have you figured out where he went? [14:01] Sein     We've been traveling along major     roads in the northern lands. [14:06] Sein     Along the way, we've met     people who have seen him. [14:09] Sein     We can probably keep heading north. [14:15] Stark     That was ten years ago, right? [14:17] Stark     I'm surprised anyone remembers seeing him. [14:19] Sein     He has a unique name. [14:22] Sein     It leaves a strong impression. [14:24] Stark     What's his name? [14:26] Sein     Gorilla Warrior. [14:32] Stark     Yeah, okay. [14:34] Stark     So what's his real name? [14:38] Sein     His real name? [14:39] Stark     Are you sure you guys were best friends? [14:41] Sein     Everyone in the village always     called him Gorilla Warrior. [14:45] Sein     Actually, he made them call him that. [14:48] Stark     How does that even happen? [14:52] Sein     By the way, I'm Goatee Priest. [14:54] Stark     No one asked. [14:56] Frieren     Did people call you that even     before you could grow a goatee? [14:59] Fern     Are we still talking about this? [15:02] Sein     Either way, it's good enough if they     recognize the name Gorilla Warrior. [15:06] Sein     He'd definitely be calling himself that. [15:10] Stark     Sounds like a weird guy. [15:11] Sein     Yeah. He's a weird guy. [15:22] Frieren     Once we cross this canyon     and walk for about a week, [15:26] Frieren     we'll finally be in the     magical city of Äußerst. [15:30] Fern     This really has been a long journey. [15:33] Frieren     What are you looking at me for? [15:35] Frieren     I didn't do anything wrong this time. [15:39] Sein     Can we stop by a village first? [15:42] Sein     The road branches here. [15:45] Frieren     Sure. We'd like to rest, too. [15:52] Sein     Ten years ago, did someone who called     himself "Gorilla" come this way? [15:57] Stark     That's a wild question. [15:59] Villager B     Ah, you must mean Mr. Gorilla Warrior. [16:02] Stark     Wow, he knows who that is. [16:03] Villager B     I remember him, since he     left a strong impression. [16:07] Villager B     He defeated a monster that     appeared near the village. [16:10] Sein     Do you know which way he headed after that? [16:13] Villager B     I'm not sure... [16:16] Villager B     Oh! [16:17] Villager B     Mr. Gorilla seemed close with the stubborn     old woman who lives on the plateau. [16:22] Villager B     You should ask her. [16:24] Stark     "Stubborn old woman"?     That's quite the nickname. [16:28] Stubborn     I'm a stubborn old woman, you see. [16:31] Stubborn     I'm not telling you for free. [16:34] Stark     She even calls herself stubborn. [16:36] Sein     What should we do? [16:42] Stubborn     You'll perform several tasks for me. [16:46] Stubborn     First, deliver this letter to Nagel,     a blacksmith in the neighboring town. [16:55] Sein     It's just a simple errand. [16:57] Freiren     It reminds me of my journey with Himmel. [17:00] Fern     You did things like this? [17:03] Frieren     Helping people by running errands     was a daily occurrence. [17:07] Frieren     And it always turned into troublesome     searches or monster hunts. [17:14] Stark     Don't jinx us. [17:17] Frieren     In any case, let's do what we can     to get her to open up to us. [17:47] Sein     This old woman just refuses to open up. [17:51] Stark     They don't call her stubborn for nothing. [17:54] Frieren     Sorry. Himmel or Heiter could've     gotten her to open up in half a day. [18:00] Fern     But our party only has     socially awkward members. [18:07] Stubborn     This is the last one. [18:09] Stubborn     Polish the heroes' statue in the canyon. [18:14] Stubborn     Come with me. I'll show you the way. [18:17] Frieren     What heroes' statue? [18:19] Stubborn     It's a stone statue of the heroes said     to have saved the world a long time ago. [18:25] Stubborn     That's all I know. [18:29] Stubborn     They're forgotten heroes.     No one even knows their names. [18:33] Stubborn     The village has been looking     after it for generations. [18:36] Sein     Forgotten heroes, huh? [18:38] Stubborn     By the way, you're Goatee Priest,     aren't you? [18:43] Sein     How'd you know? [18:49] Stubborn     We're here. [18:52] Frieren     A priest and a warrior. [18:55] Frieren     It's pretty old. [18:57] Fern     They kind of look like Mr. Sein     and Mr. Gorilla. [19:01] Frieren     I think I recognize the warrior. [19:06] Frieren     It's Kraft. [19:08] Stark     You're right. [19:10] Fern     It looks just like him. [19:15] Frieren     Shall we get started? [19:23] Frieren     Sein? [19:24] Sein     I see. [19:25] Sein     So this person's name is Kraft. [19:29] Sein     What about this one? [19:30] Frieren     I don't know. [19:33] Sein     I see. [19:38] (Flashback) Heiter     What's this statue? [19:40] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     Don't they look just like us? [19:43] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     According to the chief,     they're ancient heroes. [19:47] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     But nobody even remembers their names. [19:50] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     We won't end up like that. [19:52] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     I refuse to be forgotten. [19:56] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     I'm going to become     an unforgettable hero like Himmel. [20:02] (Flashback) Heiter     Even the greatest heroes     are forgotten someday. [20:07] (Flashback) Heiter     Even Himmel, who defeated the     Demon King, will be no exception. [20:13] (Flashback) Young Sein     I guess you're right. It's impossible. [20:21] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     You think I could get this big     if I worked out hard enough? [20:26] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     Gorilla Warrior. [20:28] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     From now on, that's my name. [20:33] (Flashback) Young Sein     Why? [20:35] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     If I want to become an unforgettable hero,     then I need a memorable name. [20:43] (Flashback) Heiter     You're right. [20:46] (Flashback) Heiter     Then your name is Goatee Priest. [20:53] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     That's a great name. [20:56] (Flashback) Heiter     I'm sure a goatee would look good on you. [21:05] Sein     We're finally done. [21:07] Sein     That was a lot of work. [21:09] Frieren     We could've used magic if it     were a bronze statue. [21:12] Stubborn     I asked Gorilla to polish it, too, [21:16] Stubborn     but he didn't do as good a job. [21:20] Sein     His only strength is fighting. [21:23] Stubborn     But his name sure was memorable. [21:29] Stubborn     Gorilla talked about you a lot. [21:34] Stubborn     He said the two of you would become heroes     whose names would be remembered forever. [22:00] Frieren     Did you figure out where Gorilla went? [22:04] Sein     Tür. [22:06] Sein     It's a trading city in the middle     of the northern lands. [22:09] Frieren     That's a long ways east from here. [22:12] Frieren     It's in the opposite     direction from Äußerst. [22:15] Sein     Yeah. [22:21] Sein     What am I going to do? [23:56] Sein     Join me in the other room, one at a time. [23:56] Villager     Make yourselves at home. [23:57] Stark     Yeah, it's all my fault. [23:58] Frieren     Because mediating is a priest's job. [23:59] Heiter     The medicine is ready. [24:00] Fern     You're embarrassing me. [24:01] Himmel     I'm pretty handsome when     I'm being considerate, aren't I? [24:02] Sein     I guess it's not so bad.

[00:05] Sein     To reunite with my friend     who departed ten years ago. [00:16] Frieren     Did you figure out where Gorilla went? [00:20] Sein     Tür. [00:22] Sein     It's a trading city in the middle     of the northern lands. [00:25] Frieren     That's a long ways east from here. [00:28] Frieren     It's in the opposite     direction from Äußerst. [00:32] Sein     Yeah. [00:42] Sein     Frieren, I came on this journey     to chase after Gorilla. [00:48] Frieren     I know. [00:50] Fern     The sun's about to set. [00:53] Fern     Can't we wait until tomorrow     to make a decision? [00:58] Stark     I asked the village to lend us a cabin. [01:01] Stark     They said we can use it     however we want. [01:03] Frieren     Thank you. [01:17] [SONG] Op Lyrics     You're there like the wind [01:20] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Closing your eyes at sunset [01:25] [SONG] Op Lyrics     I wonder what's on your mind SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [01:35] [SONG] Op Lyrics     With your eyelids open [01:39] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Your eyes shone like glass [01:44] [SONG] Op Lyrics     It faintly smelled like a sunny day [01:57] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Clear up the sky, let flowers bloom [02:02] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Bloom and blame it on the sunny sky [02:06] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Even the rain, when it stops [02:11] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Will make you shine in the sunlight [02:16] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Calm the stirring sounds in my heart [02:21] [SONG] Op Lyrics     We go like the sunny wind [02:25] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Go on and fly over that cloud [02:29] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Further and further away SIGN    Episode 17: Take Care [02:56] Sein     I got firewood. [02:58] Fern     I bought ingredients for dinner. [03:05] Fern     My hands are freezing. [03:06] Frieren     It has gotten rather cold. [03:10] Frieren     You're right. [03:11] Frieren     Wow, this might be a new record. [03:18] Stark     Let me see. [03:20] Stark     You're right. They're really cold. [03:22] Frieren     Right? [03:28] Stark     Don't! [03:30] Frieren     Isn't this a new record? [03:32] Stark     Yeah. They're freezing. [03:34] Sein     Ridiculous. [03:42] Fern     It's snowing. [03:44] Fern     Will we need to wait     for winter to pass again? [03:47] Frieren     We won't be crossing any     steep mountains this time. [03:52] Frieren     Unless there's a serious blizzard,     we'll be fine. [04:00] Fern     It's blizzarding. [04:02] Sein     It sure is. [04:03] Stark     Yup. [04:05] Cabin Owner     In this region, cold waves     last an entire month. [04:08] Cabin Owner     I wouldn't recommend venturing far. [04:11] Cabin Owner     You can keep using the cabin for a while. [04:18] Frieren     What do you want to do, Sein?     Should we leave? [04:21] Sein     Do you even need to ask? [04:23] Frieren     So we're stuck here until     the cold wave passes. [04:26] Sein     That's what it sounds like. [04:28] Frieren     But there are bars and shops here, at least. [04:31] Frieren     This cabin's nice and large, too. [04:33] Frieren     It's a lot better than the mountain cabin     we stayed in before. [04:37] Frieren     And most importantly, there's a magic shop     in this village run by a shady old man. [04:44] Frieren     In my experience, shops like those     tend to have legendary-level spells. [04:50] Frieren     Getting to take my time     exploring it is a big win. [04:54] Stark     Legendary-level spells? [04:56] Stark     What kinds have you encountered so far? [05:00] Frieren     A spell to get rid of mold     and a spell to remove tough oil stains. [05:06] (Flashback) Fern     Incredible. [05:08] Fern     Those spells are so convenient,     they changed my world. [05:12] Sein     They sound like a grandma's household wisdom. [05:15] Frieren     In any case, the only thing     we can do now is wait. [05:18] Frieren     We'll die if we underestimate     the winters of the northern lands. [05:23] Fern     Mr. Stark did nearly die     in the Schwer Mountains. [05:28] Sein     I'm from the northern lands. [05:31] Sein     I know that much. [05:35] Sein     Anyway, sounds like we'll be staying     together for a while longer. [06:09] Cabin Owner     The cold wave should be ending soon. [06:12] Cabin Owner     It won't be long before you adventurers     can finally continue on your journey. [06:15] Sein     Yeah, you're right. [06:18] Sein     Wait. Didn't we spend most of our time apart? [06:23] Frieren     Sein. [06:25] Frieren     Do you have a minute? [06:27] Sein     What is it, Frieren? [06:29] Sein     You don't often come to the tavern. [06:32] Frieren     Stark and Fern are acting strange. [06:36] Frieren     I think they're fighting.     Could you mediate? [06:39] Sein     Sure, but why are you asking me? [06:43] Frieren     Because mediating is a priest's job. [06:47] Sein     Is it? [06:55] Sein     What a sorry state of affairs. [06:57] Sein     What happened here? [07:00] Fern     It's Mr. Stark's fault. [07:03] Stark     Yeah, it's all my fault. [07:07] Sein     We won't get anywhere like this. [07:11] Sein     Join me in the other room, one at a time. [07:24] Sein     So, what happened? [07:28] Stark     Remember how Fern touched my cheek [07:31] Stark     with her cold hands when we     first arrived at the cabin? [07:34] Sein     Yeah, I remember that. [07:37] Stark     Today, when I paid her back in kind, [07:41] Stark     she got upset. [07:43] Sein     What are you, a child? [07:47] Sein     Of course girls don't like it when     you put your hands on their face. [07:53] Sein     Are you okay with leaving     things the way they are? [07:55] Stark     I'd like to make up with her. [07:58] Sein     Stark. Unlike me, you're good at heart. [08:03] Sein     Be honest, and tell her how you feel. [08:05] Sein     If you want to make up,     then you have to tell her that. [08:10] Sein     Frieren won't mediate for you. [08:15] Stark     I know. I'll apologize to Fern. [08:21] Sein     Stark feels bad about what he did. [08:23] Sein     He's just a kid. He didn't mean any harm. [08:27] Fern     I know. I'm being stubborn. [08:32] Fern     I'd like to apologize to him. [08:34] Fern     It was my fault to begin with. [08:37] Fern     I don't mind that he touched me. [08:40] Fern     It's just... the arm he used to     restrain my shoulder was so strong. [08:48] Fern     It scared me a little. [08:53] Sein     Do you not like Stark? [08:56] Fern     Why would you ask that? [08:58] Fern     Is that how it seems to you? [09:00] Sein     Then tell him you were scared and make up. [09:06] Fern     Be gentler. [09:08] Stark     I'm sorry. [09:14] Sein     Just start dating already! [09:18] Frieren     I'm not sure what happened,     but I think you're trying really hard, Sein. [09:23] Frieren     Thanks for the help. [09:28] Sein     Frieren, you're the only one     who praises me like I'm a kid. [09:33] Frieren     But you are a kid. [09:36] Sein     I guess it's not so bad. [09:42] Sein     You know, I've been wondering. [09:46] Sein     Why do you trouble yourself with me, [09:49] Sein     like when you invited me to travel with you? [09:54] Frieren     Maybe it really is a dislike of my own kind. [09:58] Frieren     The way you refused to go on an adventure [10:00] Frieren     reminded me of myself before     I left to defeat the Demon King. [10:04] Frieren     It made me angry. [10:07] Sein     That doesn't explain why you     concern yourself with me. [10:10] Frieren     I think I wanted to give you a reason. [10:16] Sein     What does that mean? [10:20] Frieren     It's what Himmel the Hero would've done. [10:26] (Flashback) Himmel     Take my hand, Frieren. [10:29] (Flashback) Himmel     I'll be your reason to go on a journey. [10:37] Frieren     They gave me the courage to travel [10:41] Frieren     and taught me the joy     of spending time with friends. [10:46] Frieren     Well, Sein? [10:47] Frieren     Haven't you had fun? [10:51] Sein     Yeah. [10:53] Sein     This has been a lot of fun. [11:07] (Flashback) Young Gorilla     I'm going to become     an unforgettable hero like Himmel. [11:11] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm talking about the present, Sein. [11:16] (Flashback) Heiter     So I decided to trust her words. [11:22] (Flashback) Stubborn     Gorilla talked about you a lot. [11:26] (Flashback) Stubborn     He said the two of you would become heroes     whose names would be remembered forever. [11:56] Sein     I've decided to go after Gorilla. [11:59] Sein     I won't live with regrets anymore. [12:02] Frieren     I know. [12:05] Sein     Take care, then. [12:09] Frieren     See you later. [12:12] Sein     Later. [12:22] Stark     Well, that was a quick goodbye. [12:25] Frieren     Unlike you two, Sein is an adult. [12:28] Frieren     I'm sure he'll be fine. [12:48] Sein     It's so quiet traveling alone. SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Offen mountain range, located in the northern lands [13:15] Stark     Huh? [13:16] Stark     That's unusual. They're still asleep. [13:20] Stark     We've been walking a lot recently. [13:22] Stark     Maybe they're tired. [13:39] Stark     Good enough. [13:42] Stark     Hey, breakfast is ready. Get up. [13:49] Stark     Fern? [13:55] Stark     Frieren, wake up. [13:58] Frieren     Just twelve more hours... [14:00] Stark     You can't sleep that long. [14:03] Stark     More importantly, Fern doesn't look well. [14:10] Stark     Hey. [14:18] Frieren     Don't. [14:22] Frieren     You've got a fever. [14:25] Frieren     You need to keep warm and rest. [14:29] Frieren     Let's see... [14:36] Frieren     Huh? That's odd. [14:38] Stark     I brought water. [14:40] Frieren     Found it. [14:41] Stark     What is that? [14:43] Frieren     Sein left us some notes on medicinal herbs. [14:47] Stark     Sein did, huh? [14:49] Frieren     I can use magic to identify her illness     and figure out which herbs to use. [14:54] Stark     But I thought identifying illnesses     was magic of the Goddess. [14:58] Stark     Didn't you say only the owner     of a holy scripture could cast it? [15:02] Frieren     I've got a holy scripture. [15:05] Stark     What? [15:10] Stark     You're using it as a pot stand! [15:14] Frieren     I'm not cut out to be a priest,     but even I can identify simple illnesses. [15:20] Frieren     I can't identify complex ones, though. [15:22] Stark     You sure you're okay? [15:26] Frieren     Yeah. It's just a cold. [15:30] Frieren     Which of the applicable herbs     are found in this region? [15:34] Frieren     Come to think of it, [15:35] Frieren     there's a place nearby where I once     gathered herbs with Himmel and the others. [15:40] Stark     For now, let's head someplace     where we can get out of the cold. [15:44] Frieren     You're right. [15:57] Villager     Oh? [16:06] Stark     You're a lifesaver. [16:08] Stark     I didn't think anyone lived     this deep in the mountains. [16:12] Frieren     There was a whole village here     when I stopped by before. [16:15] Villager     That was decades ago. [16:18] Villager     It was a prestigious village     once visited by the hero. [16:23] Villager     Anyway, make yourselves at home. [16:27] Frieren     Thank you. [16:29] Frieren     By the way, isn't there an icicle     cherry blossom tree near here? [16:33] Villager     Yes, north of here. [16:36] Villager     It's a bit difficult to get there, though. [16:39] Frieren     It's all right. [16:41] Frieren     I've been here before. [16:45] Villager     Well, I'll be working. [16:50] Frieren     Wait here, Fern. [16:52] Frieren     We'll gather the ingredients     we need for your medicine. [16:55] Stark     You've been holding her hand     since we arrived. [16:58] Frieren     Because she seems to be in pain. [17:00] Frieren     When Fern has a cold,     holding her hand makes her feel better. [17:05] Frieren     She's been that way since she was a child. [17:11] Frieren     What's wrong? [17:13] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you're embarrassing me. [17:18] Frieren     How? [17:20] Fern     Don't treat me like a child. [17:27] Frieren     I see. You're right. [17:33] Frieren     In two years, she'll be a full-grown adult. [17:37] Frieren     It wasn't long ago that     she only came up to here. [17:41] Frieren     I was way taller than her. [17:44] Frieren     But in the blink of an eye, she grew up. [17:47] Frieren     In my mind, Fern is still a child. [17:52] Frieren     I'll probably always think of her that way. [17:56] Stark     Frieren... [17:59] Frieren     We'd better hurry and get those herbs. [18:06] Stark     Yeah. [18:31] Frieren     We should be arriving at the     icicle cherry blossom tree soon. [18:34] Stark     Is the icicle cherry blossom tree     the last ingredient we need for the medicine? [18:39] Frieren     We'll actually be using the mushrooms     that grow at the base of the tree. [18:57] Frieren     It's beautiful. [18:59] Frieren     I wish we could've showed Fern. [19:02] Frieren     It might be my favorite flower     that blooms in winter. [19:06] Frieren     Be careful. The flowers are poisonous. [19:10] Stark     Hey, why'd you hold Fern's hand? [19:15] Stark     Normally you don't treat her     that much like a child. [19:18] Frieren     I wasn't trying to treat her like a child. [19:22] Frieren     I simply held her hand because     it looked like she was in pain. [19:27] Frieren     It's the only way I know to relieve her pain. [19:33] Frieren     What should I have done? [19:39] Stark     I guess you just have to do     what you want to do. [19:43] Stark     At least, that's what my master did. [19:47] Stark     People probably need emotional support. [19:51] Stark     Nobody dislikes receiving support. [20:01] (Flashback) Frieren     What do you think you're doing? [20:03] (Flashback) Himmel     You were moaning in your sleep. [20:06] (Flashback) Himmel     We feel helpless when we're sick. [20:09] (Flashback) Himmel     I lost my mother when I was young,     but she used to hold my hand like this. [20:15] (Flashback) Himmel     It's strangely calming. [20:17] (Flashback) Frieren     You mean when you were a child, right? [20:20] (Flashback) Himmel     It's not just children who     need emotional support. [20:26] (Flashback) Himmel     It doesn't bother you, does it? [20:29] (Flashback) Frieren     You're right. [20:32] (Flashback) Frieren     I guess it's not so bad. [20:35] (Flashback) Himmel     I'm pretty handsome when     I'm being considerate, aren't I? [20:38] (Flashback) Frieren     Please just be quiet. [20:41] (Flashback) Heiter     The medicine is ready. [20:47] Stark     Fern was probably embarrassed     because I was there. [20:52] Stark     Nobody likes to be seen acting     like a pampered child. [20:58] Frieren     Thank you, Stark. [21:01] Frieren     I'll try doing what I want to do. [21:05] Frieren     To thank you, I'll hold your hand     when you get sick. [21:09] Stark     Don't. It's embarrassing. [21:13] Frieren     Okay, let's gather some mushrooms. [21:17] Frieren     Hup. [21:19] Stark     They're bigger than I expected! Scary! [21:22] Frieren     Now we just add the other ingredients... [21:26] Frieren     And mix very, very well. [21:29] Stark     You're like a witch! Really scary! [21:33] Frieren     Open your mouth, Fern. [21:45] Villager     You're good at that. Thanks for the help. [21:49] Stark     You think so? [21:51] Frieren     It's all right. You'll feel better soon. [21:56] Fern     Ms. Frieren, I'm not a child anymore. [22:00] Frieren     I know. [22:02] Frieren     I know that. [22:14] Villager     Take care of yourselves! [22:18] Fern     Thank you so much! [22:21] Stark     You're looking a lot better. [22:25] Fern     I have the two of you and     Mr. Sein's notes to thank for that. [22:30] Fern     The owner of that home was very kind, too. [22:36] Frieren     Okay. [22:38] Frieren     Our destination is Äußerst, the city of magic.

SIGN    29 years after the death of Himmel the Hero,     in the Kühl region, located in the northern lands [01:39] Frieren     We're still a long ways away. [01:41] Frieren     We'll need to hitch a ride on     a carriage on our way there. [01:46] Fern     Once you get your first-class     mage certification there, [01:49] Fern     we'll be able to enter the Northern Plateau. [01:52] Frieren     I don't think I have to be     the one to get certified. [01:56] Frieren     I won't be able to use it for long, anyway. [01:59] Frieren     You should get certified, Fern. [02:01] Fern     Ms. Frieren, don't you know? [02:04] Fern     Only a handful of the most skilled mages     have ever gained a first-class certification. [02:12] Fern     I certainly couldn't manage it. [02:14] Frieren     Oh, really? [02:17] Fern     You don't seem interested. [02:20] Stark     It's a bit late to ask, [02:21] Stark     but why do we need to be accompanied [02:24] Stark     by a crazy-powerful mage to enter     the Northern Plateau, anyway? [02:27] Frieren     The Northern Plateau has long been inhabited [02:29] Frieren     by many cunning, magic-using     monsters like the Einsam. [02:34] Frieren     It's a dangerous region that you once couldn't     cross without a priest and a skilled mage. [02:39] Frieren     That said, if someone as valuable [02:41] Frieren     as a skilled mage is required     to travel through the area, [02:45] Frieren     something pretty serious must be     happening on the Northern Plateau. [02:51] Frieren     We'll look into the exam     once we arrive in Äußerst. [02:55] Frieren     According to Fern, there's a combat test. [02:59] Frieren     I'll need to come up with a strategy. [03:01] Fern     Aren't you powerful enough to     easily handle any kind of test? [03:06] Fern     Even when you're suppressing your mana, [03:08] Fern     you still produce as much     as an experienced old mage. [03:12] Frieren     Don't call me an old mage. [03:15] Stark     Now she's sulking. [03:17] Stark     Don't you think calling her     an old mage was a bit mean? [03:20] Fern     I'm sorry. [03:22] Frieren     I haven't forgotten that you     called me an old hag, Stark. [03:26] Stark     How long ago was that? [03:29] Frieren     Forget it. I'm going to sleep. [03:30] Frieren     Wake me when we get to Äußerst. [03:34] Fern     Sheesh. [03:38] Frieren     Actually, never mind. [03:40] Stark     What's wrong? [03:42] Frieren     I could only see half the sky. [03:46] Stark     What? [03:48] Frieren     Just so you know, Fern, [03:50] Frieren     mana isn't the only factor that     determines a mage's strength. [03:54] Frieren     Technique, experience, the spells     they use, their control... [03:58] Frieren     There's effort and tenacity, too. [04:00] Stark     Some of those sound more like warrior traits. [04:03] Frieren     Finally, there's talent. [04:06] Frieren     In my life, I've lost eleven times to     mages who had less mana than me. [04:13] Frieren     Four of them were demons. [04:16] Fern     Qual was one of them. [04:19] Frieren     One was an elf like me, [04:22] Frieren     and the remaining six were humans. [04:27] Übel     The graf's city should be     coming into view soon. SIGN    In the frontier of Graf Granat's domain,     located in the northern lands [04:31] Übel     The road to Äußerst is steep. [04:35] Übel     Maybe I'll take a break. [04:40] Bandit A     That's a nice staff you've got there, miss. [04:45] Übel     What's this? More bandits? [04:49] Übel     We're finally enjoying peace now     that Aura has been defeated, too. [04:53] Übel     But now we're seeing more of these types. [04:56] Bandit A     Who told you to speak? [04:58] Bandit A     Gather your things and— [05:06] Bandit B     Bastard. [05:16] Kraft     If you value your lives,     then leave this place. [05:21] Bandit A     Let's go. [05:24] Übel     Thanks for saving me. [05:28] Übel     I'm Übel the Mage. [05:31] Kraft     Kraft the Monk. [05:33] Übel     Huh? Are you an elf? [05:35] Übel     How unusual. This is my     first time seeing one. [05:39] Kraft     You have the eyes of a killer. [05:45] Kraft     I didn't rescue you. [05:48] Kraft     I found the torn-up bodies     of bandits in the woods nearby. [05:52] Kraft     They'd been killed by a mage. [05:55] Kraft     A tremendously skilled one, no less. [05:58] Übel     Oh, yeah? [06:01] Übel     Did you come to lecture me? [06:05] Kraft     No. I'm an adventurer, too. [06:07] Kraft     I'm not so hard-headed as to criticize     someone for killing in self-defense. [06:12] Kraft     I was simply saving the lives     I saw in front of me. [06:16] Übel     You're a shrewd old man. You're no fun. [06:19] Kraft     Are you headed to Äußerst? [06:22] Übel     Yeah. I'm going to take     the first-class mage exam. [06:27] Kraft     Frieren said the same thing. [06:32] Kraft     I look forward to hearing about her     adventures when I see her next. SIGN    Continental Magic Association,     Northern Branch [06:37] Clerk     The exam will take place     two months from now. [06:40] Clerk     Keep in mind that the first-class mage exam     is administered once every three years. [06:45] Clerk     Also, a fifth-class mage or higher     certification is required to take the exam. [06:53] Frieren     Fern, it's all up to you. [06:57] Fern     Ms. Frieren, I can't do this alone. [07:00] Frieren     Sure you can. [07:02] Fern     What are we going to do if I fail? [07:04] Fern     The first-class mage exam is only     held once every three years. [07:07] Frieren     We'll either hire a first-class mage     or travel by sea. [07:11] Fern     That would be incredibly expensive. [07:14] Fern     We won't be able to afford snacks anymore. [07:20] Frieren     But I'm uncertified. [07:26] Frieren     My holy emblem won't work, will it? [07:30] Fern     Again, what is that antique? [07:34] Lernen     Hey, you. [07:37] Lernen     Could I take a look at that? [07:45] Lernen     Are you planning to take     the first-class mage exam? [07:52] Frieren     Looks like I get to take the exam. [07:55] Frieren     I'm surprised there's anyone around     who still knows what this is. [07:58] Fern     Is that thing impressive? [08:02] Frieren     It's supposed to be. [08:06] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, you're not part     of a magic guild, are you? [08:10] (Flashback) Frieren     The organizations that manage     magic change all the time. [08:14] (Flashback) Frieren     I can't be bothered to join every one. [08:17] (Flashback) Himmel     Huh. [08:20] (Flashback) Frieren     Besides, I have this. [08:22] (Flashback) Frieren     A holy emblem. Pretty impressive, right? [08:27] (Flashback) Himmel     What's this rusty necklace? Any clue? [08:30] (Flashback) Heiter     None at all. [08:37] (Flashback) Frieren     I see. [08:40] (Flashback) Frieren     But this is the only thing     that proves I'm a mage. [08:46] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, it's true that we     don't recognize that necklace. [08:51] (Flashback) Himmel     But we know you're an incredible mage. [08:56] (Flashback) Himmel     Isn't that enough? [09:00] (Flashback) Frieren     But you'll die so soon. [09:09] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [09:11] Fern     We know you're an incredible mage. [09:22] Frieren     You're right. [09:26] Frieren     According to the Continental     Magic Association's regulations, [09:29] Frieren     a person becomes a proper mage     once they've achieved at least fifth class. [09:35] Frieren     Fern, why did you get a     third-class certification? [09:38] Fern     Because it had the soonest     available testing date. [09:42] Frieren     There are 600 mages who     are at least fifth class. [09:46] Frieren     Even when you include apprentices from sixth     to ninth class, there are 2,000 mages total. [09:51] Frieren     Among them, 45 are first class. [09:54] Frieren     The first-class exam is held     once every three years [09:57] Frieren     at the northern branch in Äußerst and the     headquarters in the holy city of Strahl. [10:03] Frieren     Many years, no one passes the test at all. [10:06] Frieren     Some test-takers are expected     to be injured or die. [10:09] Frieren     It seems moderately challenging. [10:12] Frieren     Either way, there are a lot     fewer mages these days. [10:16] Fern     There used to be more? [10:19] Frieren     A century ago, when the Demon King's     attacks intensified, [10:22] Frieren     you could expect to encounter at least     one mage while walking around town. [10:27] Frieren     These days, you hardly see     them outside magic cities. [10:32] Frieren     Let's train thoroughly to prepare     for the exam in two months. [11:08] Genau     The first-class mage exam will now begin. SIGN    First Test Proctor SIGN    Genau, First-Class Mage [11:13] Genau     The first-class mage     certification is granted only [11:14] Falsch     This year's test-takers     seem rather exceptional. [11:17] Falsch     Wirbel, second-class mage and     captain of the Northern Magic Corps [11:18] Genau     to the most exceptionally     talented and powerful mages. [11:21] Genau     Only a few mages are granted the title. [11:21] Falsch     that has fought against the remnants     of the Demon King's forces for years. [11:24] Genau     Naturally, the exam is quite dangerous, [11:26] Falsch     Denken, the crafty old     second-class mage who won [11:27] Genau     but the Association will not intervene     regardless of what happens to you. [11:31] Falsch     a bloody struggle for power     to become an imperial mage. [11:37] Falsch     Fern, the youngest mage to ever receive     a third-class certification with top marks. [11:44] Falsch     Of course, there are some     problem children as well. [11:47] Falsch     Übel, the third-class mage who failed     the second-class exam two years ago [11:52] Falsch     when she killed the first-class mage     who proctored it. [11:58] Falsch     Who else looks promising? [12:02] Falsch     I see someone radiating the mana     of an experienced old mage. [12:08] Falsch     Who is that? [12:09] Sense     I don't know. [12:10] Genau     I will now announce the content     of the first test in this exam. [12:15] Genau     You will be tested as parties. [12:16] Genau     The 57 exam-takers will split into teams     of three for the first test. [12:24] Genau     We will now assign parties. [12:28] Frieren     Bracelets, huh? [12:31] Frieren     They have numbers on them.     I must be in the 2nd party. [12:36] Frieren     Imbuing it with mana allows me to locate     the bracelets belonging to my party members. [12:40] Frieren     So this is how we identify     our party members. [12:44] Frieren     Either way, this is interesting. [12:47] Frieren     Setting aside normal party compositions, [12:49] Frieren     these improvised parties of magical     miscreants will struggle to work together. [12:57] Frieren     First impressions are important here. [13:00] Frieren     I should be careful not to make waves. [13:03] Frieren     I sense my party members'     bracelets around here. [13:07] Kanne     Ow, ow, ow! [13:09] Kanne     You're gonna rip them off! [13:10] Kanne     You can't be serious! I'll kill you! [13:13] Lawine     Try it. [13:16] Frieren     They're already fighting. [13:23] Übel     Nice to meet you. [13:26] Fern     It's nice to meet you. SIGN    At the site of the first test, in Grobe Basin,     located in the northern lands [13:31] Genau     Allow me to explain the specific     rules of the first test. [13:36] Genau     Small birds known as Stille     live within the testing area. [13:40] Genau     Each party has been given one cage. [13:44] Genau     There are two conditions you must     fulfill to pass the first test. [13:48] Genau     First, by sunset tomorrow,     have a cage containing a Stille, [13:52] Kanne     Stay away from me! [13:53] Genau     and second, have all of your party     members present at that time. [13:57] Genau     You are mostly free to do as you wish, [14:00] Genau     but if anyone leaves the testing area, [14:04] Genau     their entire party will fail the test. [14:08] Lawine     They say that like there isn't a barrier     around the testing area [14:12] Lawine     that won't let so much as     a speck of dust through. [14:14] Kanne     It's not like we can get out. [14:17] Frieren     So they're actually listening     to the explanation. [14:20] Genau     The first test begins now. [14:23] Kanne     We should start by coming up with a plan! [14:26] Lawine     Are you stupid? [14:27] Lawine     We can't come up with a plan     if we can't even find them! [14:31] Frieren     They're still fighting. [14:34] Frieren     Why don't we introduce     ourselves while we walk? [14:40] Frieren     Also, use rock-paper-scissors to     decide who will carry the cage. [14:50] Frieren     I'm Frieren. Nice to meet you. [14:53] Lawine     I'm Lawine, a third-class mage. [14:56] Kanne     I'm Kanne, also a third-class mage. [14:59] Kanne     Lawine and I go way back. [15:01] Kanne     We graduated from the same magic school. [15:04] Frieren     Do you two know anything about the Stille? [15:07] Lawine     No. [15:08] Kanne     Nope. [15:09] Frieren     I do, but I've never seen     one in person before. [15:13] Freiren     Let's start by finding a     Stille and observing it. [15:38] Kanne     I'm tired. [15:40] Lawine     You're so undisciplined. [15:42] Frieren     Shall we take a break? [15:47] Lawine     I can keep moving. I'll go ahead     and check things out. [15:50] Kanne     It's safer to stay together. [15:52] Lawine     Oh, shut up. That's so inefficient. [15:57] Frieren     Lawine, are you strong? [15:59] Lawine     Stronger than her. [16:00] Kanne     You wanna fight, huh? [16:02] Frieren     And compared to me? [16:05] Lawine     I wouldn't want to fight you. [16:08] Frieren     I see. [16:10] Frieren     Fine. Go check things out. [16:12] Frieren     Come back if it gets too dangerous. [16:15] Lawine     Okay. [16:16] Frieren     And watch the skies. [16:19] Lawine     I know. [16:23] Frieren     I wonder if our party will be okay. [16:26] Kanne     Frieren, you're like a teacher. [16:29] Kanne     You'd make a good leader. [16:31] Frieren     It's because you two keep fighting. [16:34] Frieren     I don't want to lead. [16:36] Kanne     Sorry. We've always been like this. [16:41] Kanne     By the way, what did you mean     when you said to watch the skies? [16:44] Frieren     I meant exactly what I said. [16:47] Frieren     Do you struggle to detect mana? [16:50] Kanne     Why? [16:51] Lawine     Hey. [16:53] Frieren     That was quick. [16:55] Lawine     I found a Stille. [16:59] Frieren     Nicely done, Lawine. Now watch it closely. [17:08] Frieren     I told you to observe. [17:11] Frieren     It's going to run away. [17:12] Lawine     I don't think so. Nice work, Kanne. [17:20] Frieren     Huh. Not bad. [17:24] Frieren     But you should probably get down. [17:26] Lawine     What? Why? [17:33] Frieren     Stille are incredibly tough. [17:36] Frieren     Their top speed is faster     than the speed of sound. [17:39] Frieren     Trying to restrain one     like that is pointless. [17:42] Lawine     Seriously? It's already gone. [17:45] Kanne     That was close. [17:46] Frieren     Capturing one will require     careful observation. [17:50] Frieren     We'll use this entire day     for Stille observation. [17:54] Frieren     Kanne controlled the water,     and Lawine froze it. [17:59] Frieren     Their timing was perfectly coordinated. [18:02] Frieren     Their teamwork is superb. [18:04] Frieren     It's not something you     could achieve overnight. [18:07] Frieren     I was worried for a while there,     but this might actually work. [18:11] Lawine     Let's go after it. [18:14] Kanne     We should search around the lake instead. [18:16] Lawine     Why? We should go sooner rather than later. [18:17] Frieren     Nope. They're fighting again. [18:50] Kanne     I hear something. Huh? [18:55] Kanne     Frieren's missing. [19:01] Kanne     It's faint, but that's the sound of rain. [19:11] Kanne     But it's not raining, so why...? [19:14] Kanne     Oh, I see. [19:17] Kanne     Does that mean...? [19:23] Kanne     A monster! [19:33] Kanne     My staff... [19:39] Kanne     Lawine! [19:51] Frieren     I told you to watch the skies. [20:04] Frieren     Have you calmed down? [20:06] Kanne     Yeah. [20:08] Frieren     You called Lawine's name. [20:12] Frieren     But you don't like Lawine, do you? [20:16] Kanne     No, I don't. [20:18] Frieren     Right? So how do you two     work together so well? [20:23] Frieren     It's strange. [20:26] Kanne     I'm surprisingly craven. [20:29] Kanne     I often fail to act during critical moments. [20:36] Kanne     It happened when I cast     my first flying spell, too. [20:42] (Flashback) Lawine     The ones who already left     are already so far away. [20:47] (Flashback) Lawine     You'll have water beneath you,     so it's not like you'll die. [20:50] (Flashback) Lawine     If you don't have the courage     to do it, want me to kick you? [20:53] (Flashback) Kanne     I hate you, Lawine. [20:56] (Flashback) Lawine     I know. [20:58] (Flashback) Kanne     You're always so mean to me. [21:01] (Flashback) Kanne     I'm the kind of person who     grows with praise, you know. [21:05] (Flashback) Lawine     You're joking, right? [21:07] (Flashback) Lawine     This is what happens when you grow up     babied by a kind mommy and daddy. [21:12] (Flashback) Lawine     If it'll help you fly,     I'll be as nice as you want. [21:17] (Flashback) Kanne     Then name my strengths. [21:19] (Flashback) Lawine     Are you for real? [21:27] (Flashback) Lawine     You try really hard even     though you're a coward. [21:31] (Flashback) Kanne     What? [21:33] (Flashback) Lawine     That's your strength. [21:38] (Flashback) Kanne     Tell me more. [21:39] (Flashback) Lawine     What? Why? [21:43] (Flashback) Lawine     You work really hard in secret. [21:46] (Flashback) Lawine     You're considerate and pay attention     to your surroundings. [21:50] (Flashback) Kanne     More. [21:55] (Flashback) Lawine     You're cute when you smile. [21:58] (Flashback) Kanne     What? Ew. [22:06] (Flashback) Kanne     That was close. [22:09] (Flashback) Lawine     So you can fly after all. [22:11] (Flashback) Lawine     I'm done being kind to you. [22:15] Kanne     Lawine is rough, but she     pulls me along with her. [22:20] Kanne     Because of her, I realized     I can manage most things [22:23] Kanne     if I just go for it, even if I'm scared. [22:28] Kanne     By the way, Frieren...

I knew you could do it. [02:00] Kanne     You think so? [02:03] (Flashback) Kanne     Lawine is rough, but she     pulls me along with her. [02:10] (Flashback) Himmel     Our first battle against a dragon is tomorrow. [02:15] (Flashback) Himmel     Are you scared, Eisen? [02:17] (Flashback) Himmel     You're shaking. [02:19] (Flashback) Eisen     Yeah. [02:20] (Flashback) Himmel     I see. In that case... [02:23] (Flashback) Himmel     Wait, what? You're scared? [02:25] (Flashback) Eisen     Yeah. [02:29] (Flashback) Himmel     I see. I'm scared, too. [02:34] (Flashback) Frieren     What kind of conversation is this? [02:37] (Flashback) Himmel     I thought I'd copy other adventurers     and inspire you, but... [02:41] (Flashback) Himmel     I'm sorry. It doesn't seem to have worked. [02:45] (Flashback) Eisen     No. Thanks to you, I'm no longer tense. [02:48] (Flashback) Heiter     Himmel, just be yourself. [02:51] (Flashback) Heiter     I'm sure this sort of thing     differs from party to party. [02:57] (Flashback) Himmel     You're right. [03:04] Frieren     I see. It really does differ     from party to party. [03:15] Fern     We finally caught a Stille. [03:18] Fern     Now we don't have to worry. [03:21] Land     Why are you so relaxed? [03:24] Übel     The hard part's still to come. [03:27] Land     We have to keep our Stille     from being stolen by other parties. [03:33] Übel     It's time to fight other mages. [03:40] Frieren     Let's review what we learned     from observing the Stille. [03:45] Kanne     First, like Frieren said, those birds     fly faster than the speed of sound. [03:55] Kanne     We could never catch up to it at that speed. [03:59] Kanne     Furthermore, they're as tough as dragons. [04:01] Kanne     Common attack spells have no effect,     and they break free of most restraints. [04:06] Lawine     On top of that, they're sensitive to mana. [04:10] Lawine     Even when we suppress our mana to     approach one, it quickly flies away. [04:22] Lawine     The biggest problem of all is because the     Stille themselves have practically no mana, [04:27] Lawine     we can't find them using mana detection. [04:30] Lawine     Because of that, we have     no idea where they are now. [04:33] Lawine     We don't know how many there are either. [04:35] Kanne     The only ones we ever spotted were     those three yesterday morning. [04:40] Kanne     They're probably being cautious because     the test-takers are searching for them. [04:44] Kanne     Worst case, they might     never show themselves again. [04:47] Lawine     And even if we do find one,     we have no idea how to catch it. [04:52] Frieren     Don't worry about that. [04:55] Frieren     Last night I experimented with a spell     that might be useful for catching a Stille. [05:01] Kanne     I remember you going out. [05:04] Kanne     What kind of spell is it? [05:05] Frieren     I already showed you, Kanne. [05:09] Frieren     A spell that captures a bird. [05:12] Frieren     It's a folk spell developed by     a tribe of hunters during an era [05:17] Frieren     when mages and magic were far more common. [05:22] Kanne     Come to think of it, you did use     a spell to restrain that creature. [05:25] Kanne     But wasn't that a monster and not a bird? [05:28] Frieren     It's folk magic, after all. [05:30] Frieren     It appears it can be used to capture     anything that broadly resembles a bird. [05:34] Frieren     It's a powerful binding spell. [05:37] Frieren     I think it'll probably work on the Stille. [05:39] Lawine     Why didn't you say so earlier? [05:42] Lawine     We could've caught one yesterday     if we'd used that. [05:45] Frieren     Actually, we couldn't have. [05:49] Frieren     That spell's range is 50 centimeters. [05:52] Frieren     You have to get that close to use it. [05:55] Lawine     Fifty centimeters? [05:57] Lawine     How close have we gotten so far? [05:59] Kanne     Three meters was the closest. [06:02] Kanne     Not only that, but they noticed us     by the time we got within 20 meters of them. [06:07] Frieren     So we're one step short     of meeting the requirements. [06:10] Lawine     That's one huge step. [06:13] Frieren     Just to confirm, it's difficult for you two     to stop the Stille with your magic, right? [06:18] Lawine     It'd probably work if we could freeze one, [06:21] Lawine     but they're sensitive to mana, tough,     and resistant to freezing. [06:25] Lawine     It'd probably escape before     we could fix it in place. [06:28] Kanne     I bet we could easily stop one with my magic     if we had access to a ton of water. [06:35] Kanne     But my magic only allows me to control water. [06:39] Kanne     I can't create it out of nothing. [06:43] Kanne     So I can't use it unless     there's water present, [06:46] Kanne     and mana struggles to penetrate     large bodies of water. [06:49] Kanne     I'd probably have to infuse it     with my mana beforehand. [06:52] Kanne     I can quickly take control of even large     amounts of water if it's scattered, like rain. [06:58] Kanne     But if I infused water with mana, the mana-     sensitive Stille would definitely stay away. [07:05] Frieren     Stay away? [07:07] Frieren     I see. They'd stay away. [07:11] Frieren     This plan might work. [07:33] Lawine     It's not bad, but it's risky. [07:37] Lawine     We'd be picking a fight     with all the other teams. [07:40] Kanne     But I doubt we'll catch one otherwise. [07:46] Kanne     Are you scared, Lawine? [07:52] Kanne     Ow, ow, ow! You're gonna rip them off! [07:57] Lawine     Fine. [07:58] Lawine     Let's do this. SIGN    4th Party     Land, Second-Class Mage [08:04] Land     For now, let's hide until the test is over. SIGN    4th Party     Übel, Third-Class Mage [08:09] Übel     What? That's no fun. [08:11] Übel     We're mages. We should fight openly. SIGN    4th Party     Fern, Third-Class Mage [08:14] Land     Mages also avoid unnecessary fighting. [08:22] Land     But first, we should get water. [08:25] Land     I think there was a lake     in the middle of the area. [08:32] Land     Either way, I'm glad     we caught a Stille so quickly. [08:37] Land     If we can remain hidden until sunset,     we'll pass the first test. [08:43] Land     What is it? [08:44] Übel     Looks like it won't be that easy. [08:47] Übel     I thought this was a road,     but it's actually a dry riverbed. [08:53] Übel     Not only that, but I saw similar     terrain in a few other places. [08:57] Fern     Isn't there a barrier around the testing area? [09:01] Land     Yeah. That's standard for tests. [09:05] Land     They're powerful physical barriers     that keep out even specks of dust. [09:09] Fern     Do they block water, too? [09:12] Land     Oh. [09:13] Übel     Judging by the dryness,     the barrier was erected over a week ago. [09:18] Fern     Then most of the water will have collected     in the lake in the middle of the valley. [09:24] Fern     Since the test-takers are living creatures, [09:27] Fern     we need some amount of water to stay active. [09:30] Land     That doesn't guarantee test-takers     would gather around the lake. [09:35] Fern     You're right. [09:37] Fern     We can carry water with us. [09:39] Fern     But the Stille, which are     also living creatures, cannot. [09:43] Land     I see. And those who have realized that [09:47] Land     will be waiting around the lake,     the largest body of water in the area. [09:53] Land     Okay, I've made my decision.     We'll give up on finding water. [09:56] Übel     That'll be tough. I'm already parched. [10:01] Land     I'm sure we can find a small pond. [10:04] Übel     Is that sanitary? [10:06] Fern     Perhaps if we boil it. SIGN    8th Party     Scharf, Third-Class Mage SIGN    8th Party     Ehre, Second-Class Mage SIGN    8th Party     Wirbel, Second-Class Mage [10:41] Wirbel     What a pain in the ass.     I was shooting to kill. [10:46] Wirbel     You're quick enough to react to that? [10:50] Wirbel     Well, whatever.     Leave the cage with the Stille. [10:54] Übel     And if we refuse? [10:56] Wirbel     Then there's no need for words. [11:08] Fern     The lake is that way. [11:34] Test-Taker A     They froze the lake. [11:36] Blei     Seriously? What are they doing? [11:38] Edel     This isn't funny. [11:40] Wirbel     That's the mana of one of     the 2nd party's members. [11:43] Wirbel     What are they thinking? [11:46] Wirbel     Are they trying to antagonize     all the other parties? [11:56] Edel     What are you doing? [11:58] Edel     Hurry up and melt it! [12:02] Richter     Denken, what should we do? [12:05] Denken     It's a waste of time and effort. SIGN    13th Party     Denken, Second-Class Mage [12:08] Denken     There's no point in melting it now. SIGN    13th Party     Richter, Second-Class Mage [12:11] Denken     After that showy display of magic,     the Stille won't come near this lake again. SIGN    13th Party     Laufen, Third-Class Mage [12:17] Denken     We'll steal our Stille from the 2nd party. [12:21] Denken     If they went this wild,     they must have a plan to catch one. [12:48] Fern     Ms. Frieren, what are you doing? [13:00] Land     Let's scatter for now. [13:07] Edel     We have to melt the frozen lake quickly! [13:10] Denken     Those fools. [13:12] Denken     Using that much magic to melt the ice     will make the lake truly useless. [13:21] Denken     The Stille won't come near here again. [13:24] Party B     Let's go. [13:25] Mob 2     Yeah. [13:25] Mob 3     That way! [13:26] Denken     Those who realized that are searching     for other watering holes, [13:31] Denken     but their mana detection is inadequate. [13:33] Denken     They won't be able to handle airborne threats. [13:36] Richter     They're inexperienced. [13:38] Test-Taker B     Apparently the 2nd party froze the lake. [13:41] Test-Taker C     Are they trying to ruin the test? [13:43] Denken     Ruin it? No. [13:46] Denken     The 2nd party has a well-laid plan. [13:50] Denken     Until we unravel it, we won't get anywhere. [14:18] Denken     Monsters got them. [14:29] Denken     They're already dead. [14:33] Denken     Let's go. [14:34] Laufen     Sir, let's at least take them down. [14:38] Denken     You can see them, can't you? [14:41] Denken     They're circling above. [14:44] Denken     Not just one or two of them either. [14:47] Denken     There's magic on those corpses. [14:50] Denken     They'll detect you     if you try to take them down. [14:53] Denken     Geisel. That's how they lure     and hunt their next prey. [14:59] Denken     This party fell for their trap     and got themselves killed. [15:05] Laufen     It's strange that they chose [15:06] Laufen     to administer the test in an area     inhabited by monsters like these. [15:10] Laufen     It's like they think nothing     of the test-takers dying. [15:13] Richter     Laufen, this is your first time     taking the first-class exam, isn't it? [15:17] Richter     Their reasoning is incredibly simple. [15:20] Richter     Anyone who would die here is     unqualified to be a first-class mage. [15:25] Richter     The Continental Magic Association [15:27] Richter     is very mindful of maintaining     the quality of first-class mages. [15:30] Richter     There are those who still dream [15:33] Richter     of the powerful and noble mages     who fought the Demon King's forces. [15:37] Denken     Damn their outdated ideas. [15:41] Richter     I'm surprised, Denken. [15:42] Richter     I thought you'd be on their side. [15:46] Denken     The quality of a mage is irrelevant. [15:49] Denken     First-class mages need only     be symbols of power. [15:54] Denken     No matter how powerful you are, [15:57] Denken     unless you can control people's hearts,     you're as good as powerless. [16:02] Denken     I've seen countless mages     far more skilled than myself [16:06] Denken     fall from power and be persecuted. [16:10] Denken     Great power is feared,     and rule by fear doesn't last long. [16:15] Denken     Besides, magic isn't a noble thing. [16:20] Richter     I see. So someone as weak as you     is perfect for the job. [16:25] Denken     Watch your tongue, boy. [16:27] Denken     I could beat you with my eyes closed. [17:03] Laufen     We've had no luck detecting the 2nd party. [17:07] Richter     They're concealing their mana and hiding. [17:11] Denken     This place, too. All the watering holes     we've seen are the same. [17:17] Denken     It's faint, but there's mana in the water. [17:22] Laufen     I don't sense anything. [17:25] Lauren     Do you? [17:26] Richter     No. Is it the 2nd party? [17:30] Denken     I doubt even the person     who cast it could detect it. [17:34] Denken     There's that little in it. [17:36] Denken     But a Stille could sense it. [17:39] Denken     They won't come near this water again. [17:42] Laufen     What's the point of doing this? [17:45] Laufen     I see. There's a watering hole somewhere     that doesn't contain mana. [17:49] Denken     And that's where the 2nd party will be. [17:54] Laufen     How will we find it? [17:57] Denken     I'm going to rest a bit. [17:59] Richter     Denken. [18:01] Denken     The testing area is enormous. [18:03] Denken     It'd be impossible to find a mage     who truly doesn't want to be found. [18:08] Denken     We'll wait. [18:09] Denken     They'll show us where they are eventually. [18:14] Kanne     I infused every lake and pond     I could find with mana. [18:19] Kanne     It's possible there are bodies of water     we don't know about, though. [18:23] Frieren     Just limiting the watering holes     the Stille can use is enough. [18:28] Frieren     I'll wait here for a Stille. [18:41] Lawine     Seriously? It's possible to completely     suppress your mana? [18:45] Frieren     Not completely. [18:47] Frieren     When I move, I release a little mana. See? [18:51] Lawine     I can't sense it. [18:54] Lawine     We'll stand watch. [18:59] Lawine     Don't hold us back. [19:00] Kanne     Shut up. [19:02] Kanne     If it'd just rain,     I could be useful in a fight. [19:05] Lawine     But the barrier would deflect all of it. [20:14] Lawine     Frieren, did you do it? [20:17] Lawine     It was worth picking a fight     with the other parties. [20:21] Kanne     Now we'll pass the first test. [20:26] Frieren     No. [20:27] Denken     Found them. [20:29] Denken     So they used magic after all. [20:32] Denken     Not even the most skilled mage     can conceal that moment. [20:37] Frieren     Someone's detected us.     We should get away from here. [20:46] Frieren     Looks like it's too late to run. [20:51] Scharf     Jubelade. [21:01] Ehre     Doragate. [21:04] Fern     It's like a cannon. [21:08] Ehre     She backed off again. [21:17] Ehre     Her technique is refined     and shows no openings, but it's old. [21:21] Ehre     It's like fighting against my grandfather. [21:24] Ehre     Ordinary offensive magic and defensive magic. [21:27] Ehre     You only use basic spells. [21:30] Ehre     Are you playing things close to the chest? [21:32] Fern     I was taught to only use     basic spells in combat. [21:36] Ehre     That's your master's philosophy, then? [21:39] Fern     Yes. She said it's enough     to defeat mages of this era. [21:45] Ehre     Oh, yeah? [21:55] Ehre     Again. What is this feeling of wrongness? [21:59] Ehre     It's like I'm fighting an experienced mage. [22:04] Ehre     You're going to struggle. [22:05] Ehre     If you fought Wirbel with your technique,     you'd be dead by now. [22:10] Fern     That doesn't make sense. [22:12] Fern     You're the strongest one here, aren't you? [22:26] Ehre     Wirbel is the captain of the     Northern Magic Corps that fought [22:30] Ehre     against the remnants     of the Demon King's forces. [22:33] Ehre     He has far more experience in battle. [22:36] Ehre     His magic is devoid of character. [22:39] Ehre     It's underhanded,     for the sole purpose of winning.

[01:16] Ehre     A saturation attack? [01:21] Ehre     How can she control so many     attack spells at once? [01:27] Ehre     This is an absurd feat of strength. [01:30] Ehre     It doesn't have a shred of character. [01:34] Ehre     I can't... handle them all. [01:53] [SONG] Op Lyrics     You're there like the wind [01:57] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Closing your eyes at sunset [02:01] [SONG] Op Lyrics     I wonder what's on your mind SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [02:12] [SONG] Op Lyrics     With your eyelids open [02:15] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Your eyes shone like glass [02:20] [SONG] Op Lyrics     It faintly smelled like a sunny day [02:33] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Clear up the sky, let flowers bloom [02:38] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Bloom and blame it on the sunny sky [02:42] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Even the rain, when it stops [02:47] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Will make you shine in the sunlight [02:52] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Calm the stirring sounds in my heart [02:57] [SONG] Op Lyrics     We go like the sunny wind [03:01] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Go on and fly over that cloud [03:05] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Further and further away SIGN    Episode 20: Necessary Killing [03:18] Wirbel     Sorganeil. [03:29] Übel     I can't move. [03:32] Übel     I can't control my mana, either. [03:35] Übel     It's a powerful binding spell. [03:38] Übel     If he has this, why didn't     he catch a Stille himself? [03:42] Übel     Though I suppose it's useless     if he can't find one. [03:47] Wirbel     My spell binds those I can see. [03:52] Wirbel     As long as I keep looking at you,     you won't be able to move. [03:57] Wirbel     I could easily kill you in your current state. [04:01] Übel     Not only that, but he was holding back. [04:05] Übel     If he'd truly intended to kill me, [04:07] Übel     he would've bound me during his initial ambush. [04:12] Wirbel     This is your last chance. [04:16] Wirbel     Leave the Stille and walk away. [04:19] Übel     Aw, he's no fun. [04:21] Übel     And I thought I'd finally     found a fight to the death. [04:24] Übel     So threatening me into handing over     our Stille was his goal after all. [04:30] Übel     Wait a minute. [04:31] Übel     Why do you need to order me to do that? [04:34] Übel     You could just take the Stille     from me while I couldn't move. [04:58] Übel     So you need to keep my entire body in view. [05:02] Übel     No wonder you don't use it     against multiple targets. [05:05] Wirbel     You were aiming for my eyes. [05:07] Übel     That's the logical choice, isn't it? [05:09] Wirbel     No. If I were you, I'd go for     the kill and attack the neck. [05:15] Wirbel     That would end the fight. [05:17] Wirbel     You should've been able to do that. [05:21] Wirbel     There were people on the battlefield     who did similar things. [05:25] Wirbel     They were all perverts who enjoyed killing. [05:32] Wirbel     I guess I should kill you now. [05:37] Übel     Have you ever killed women     and children before? [05:41] Wirbel     You think I haven't? [05:43] Übel     Huh. What hells have you seen? [05:48] Wirbel     Trying to buy time? [05:52] Wirbel     Fine. I'll play along. [05:57] Wirbel     The Northern Magic Corps are mercenaries     who specialize in fighting demons, [06:02] Wirbel     but in times of need, we're mobilized     to fight in wars between nations. [06:09] Wirbel     People know exactly what makes     other people weak. [06:14] Wirbel     The fiendish act of sending women     and children to war wasn't uncommon. [06:21] Wirbel     It wasn't hell. [06:25] Wirbel     It's commonplace in the far north. [06:28] Übel     I see. I've heard enough. [06:44] Übel     You're not going to kill me? [06:48] Übel     I think the magic a person specializes in     is strongly related to their life and nature. [06:57] Übel     A spell that binds your opponent feels like     a way to delay killing them. [07:05] Übel     I see. That's why you let me buy time, too. [07:09] Übel     I'm surprised. [07:11] Übel     Your hands are already drenched in blood,     and yet you still want to remain human. [07:20] Wirbel     That's right. I use this time     to prepare myself to kill. [07:25] Wirbel     But you know, miss... [07:29] Wirbel     Though I may hesitate,     I've always killed everyone I had to. [07:38] Wirbel     Later, miss. [07:44] Fern     Don't move. [07:51] Wirbel     You're kidding, right? [07:53] Wirbel     You beat Ehre? [07:55] Wirbel     I didn't sense her at all. [07:58] Wirbel     I'm surprised. You can     completely conceal your mana? [08:02] Wirbel     You must be the one who captured the Stille. [08:05] Übel     We just got lucky. [08:07] Übel     We happened upon a Stille's roost, [08:10] Übel     and her master had taught her     a spell that captures a bird. [08:14] Übel     And you've got a spell that binds anything,      so I guess you just got really unlucky. [08:19] Wirbel     Seriously. I've got no luck. [08:22] Wirbel     You were fighting Ehre. [08:25] Wirbel     What happened to her? [08:26] Fern     I killed her. [08:32] Wirbel     The conditions for passing the first test [08:35] Wirbel     are possessing a Stille by sunset tonight     and having all your party members present. [08:44] Wirbel     We lost. I'm getting out of here. [08:48] Übel     I thought you were going to kill me. [08:51] Wirbel     I've already failed the test. [08:53] Wirbel     Killing you would be unnecessary. [08:55] Wirbel     Later. [08:58] Wirbel     You can attack me from behind if you want. [09:02] Wirbel     You'll just be turning an unnecessary kill     back into a necessary one. [09:06] Fern     Ms. Übel. [09:08] Übel     I know. [09:15] Übel     You're a good liar. [09:16] Fern     We should go to assist     Mr. Land while we can. [09:20] Übel     That four-eyes will be fine.     He's quite the pretender. [09:39] Scharf     It's over. [09:42] Land     This is impressive. [09:47] Land     You turned countless petals into metal     and controlled them precisely [09:51] Land     to slip them through my defenses. [09:54] Land     But this is your own invention, isn't it? [09:56] Land     Spells like that often     neglect the fundamentals. [10:01] Land     I always watch and wait when     fighting an opponent I don't know. [10:08] Land     I know exactly what your weaknesses are. [10:11] Land     I'll probably win. [10:13] Scharf     Talkative, aren't you? [10:15] Scharf     How do you intend to win when     I've ruined your dominant arm? [10:21] Scharf     If you won't surrender,     then I'll take your head off. [10:25] Land     I told you, I'm still observing you     before the battle begins. [10:30] Land     You're not very good at     detecting mana, are you? [10:41] Scharf     Illusion magic. [10:43] Land     It has substance, so strictly speaking,      it's more like a clone. [10:48] Scharf     How long— [10:53] Land     Since the beginning,     when the first test started. [10:58] Land     I don't trust other people. [11:04] Wirbel     Killed her, my ass. [11:06] Wirbel     That bitch lied like it was nothing. [11:11] Wirbel     Wake up, Ehre. [11:15] Wirbel     Out of mana? Pathetic. [11:18] Wirbel     Didn't you graduate at the top of your class? [11:21] Ehre     She overwhelmed me with     ordinary offensive magic. [11:26] Ehre     I couldn't block them all. [11:30] Ehre     You don't believe me, do you? [11:33] Wirbel     No, I do. [11:39] Wirbel     Why'd you attack her head-on like an idiot? [11:43] Wirbel     It's not like you couldn't have won. [11:48] Wirbel     But if she could pull off this stunt     with ordinary offensive magic alone, [11:54] Wirbel     she must be one nasty monster. [11:58] Wirbel     Let's go. We'll meet up with Scharf. [12:01] Ehre     Wait. I can't walk. [12:04] Wirbel     Oh, fine. [12:11] Ehre     Are you really going to float me     there like an object? [12:14] Ehre     Carry me on your back! [12:20] Wirbel     Why am I doing this? [12:23] Ehre     Do you sense Scharf nearby? [12:25] Wirbel     He's on the other side of those bushes. [12:28] Wirbel     Hey, Scharf. Help me carry... [12:35] Scharf     Wirbel, carry me on your back. [12:38] Scharf     I feel numb and can't move. [12:45] Wirbel     Damn it. [12:46] Wirbel     Seriously, what the hell is going on? [12:51] Ehre     What's this sound? [12:53] Wirbel     Probably the rain. [12:55] Wirbel     It's started raining outside the barrier. [12:58] Wirbel     It's like my current mental state. [13:01] Wirbel     The sun will set in two or three more hours. [13:04] Wirbel     The first test will end. [13:07] Wirbel     Two of us are out of the fight. [13:09] Wirbel     We can't steal anyone's Stille like this. [13:12] Wirbel     We're going to fail. [13:15] Ehre     But you're helping us anyway.     You're a nice guy. [13:19] Wirbel     I don't mind ditching you     two here, you know. [13:23] Scharf     Please don't abandon us. [13:24] Wirbel     Don't cry. You're a man, aren't you? [13:28] Ehre     Is that kindness the reason     you fight demons? [13:38] Ehre     You saved my village, too. [13:41] Wirbel     Are you stupid? [13:42] Wirbel     I couldn't risk my life for kindness. [13:45] Wirbel     People fight for their own desires. [13:49] Wirbel     In my case, I had ulterior motives. [13:52] Wirbel     I was in love with a girl from my hometown. [13:56] Wirbel     Exactly 29 years ago, the demon activity     in the northern lands increased. [14:02] Wirbel     She and her entire family     fled to the central lands. [14:06] Wirbel     I was a dumb kid. [14:08] Wirbel     I decided to show off for her. [14:10] (Flashback) Young Wirbel     I'll kill all those shitty demons. [14:15] (Flashback) Young Wirbel     When I do, come back to this village. [14:23] Wirbel     I was only four or five years old. [14:27] Wirbel     I don't even remember     her face or name anymore. [14:34] Ehre     What an idiot. [14:35] Wirbel     Yeah. I'm an idiot. [14:44] Wirbel     Are we sailing back home again?     I get seasick easily. [14:49] Ehre     Want me to introduce you to my grandpa? [14:52] Ehre     Since he's a first-class mage,     we can travel by land to... [14:56] Ehre     Hey, Wirbel. [14:58] Wirbel     What is it? [14:58] Ehre     Look. [15:11] Wirbel     You can't be serious.     What was all that effort for? [15:16] Wirbel     Took long enough for luck to go my way. [15:25] Kanne     Frieren, she's not doing anything. [15:32] Denken     An elf, huh? [15:34] Denken     She's a skilled mage. [15:37] Denken     I doubt Laufen's magic would work a     second time now that she's seen it. [15:43] Denken     But just once was enough. [15:45] Denken     We're not trying to kill each other here. [15:50] Kanne     She vanished? [15:52] Lawine     Frieren, the Stille... [15:55] Frieren     She took it, huh? [16:03] Frieren     That's an interesting spell. [16:17] Sense     It's comfortable inside the barrier     even when it's raining. [16:20] Genua     Come to think of it, aren't you the proctor     for the second test, Sense? [16:26] Sense     Looks like you killed a few promising     test-takers again, Genau. [16:32] Genau     Don't make me laugh. [16:35] Genau     No promising test-taker would die from this. [16:39] Genau     Besides, first-class mages     simply have that much worth. [16:44] Genau     You should know that. [16:47] Sense     Either way, choosing a target immune to     mana detection for a mage test wasn't nice. [16:55] Sense     Whether or not they'll catch one     comes down to luck. [16:59] Sense     This is a battle masquerading     as a competition. [17:02] Genau     Luck is a skill. [17:05] Genau     And some test-takers seem to have captured     a Stille without relying on luck. [17:11] Genau     The sun will set in three hours. [17:14] Genau     The battle will grow more intense. [17:20] Sense     Who do you think will survive? [17:22] Genau     A third will remain. [17:25] Genau     Denken will be among them. [17:28] Genau     His skill is comparable     to a first-class mage's. [17:33] Sense     What's an old man only interested     in wealth and political power [17:36] Sense     doing getting certified now? [17:38] Sense     Is he doing it for the privilege after all? [17:41] Genau     Who knows? [17:42] Genau     He's getting up there in years. [17:45] Genau     I'm sure he's got something on his mind. [17:48] Frieren     The spell that girl used     was Jilwer, wasn't it? [17:53] Frieren     That's a folk spell used by a mountain tribe     in the southern lands. [17:58] Denken     That's right. [18:00] Kanne     What's a Jilwer? [18:01] Lawine     A spell that allows you to move at high speed. [18:03] Frieren     Then the two of you     should've remained hidden. [18:08] Frieren     She could've simply taken     the Stille on her own. [18:11] Denken     Laufen is still inexperienced.     She left too many traces of mana behind. [18:17] Denken     You could have easily followed her, Frieren. [18:23] Denken     You must really find     our presence troublesome. [18:26] Frieren     Well, yes. You know who I am? [18:30] Denken     There isn't a mage of our generation     who doesn't know that name. [18:35] Denken     It's my first time seeing     you with my own eyes, [18:38] Denken     but I knew who you were     as soon as I saw you. [18:40] Denken     You are Frieren, the mage     from the party of heroes. [18:45] Kanne     Is she famous? [18:46] Lawine     She's a legendary mage.     I knew it might be possible, but... [18:51] Lawine     I guess elves really don't age. [18:54] Frieren     You're challenging me rather openly. [18:57] Frieren     You've been sniffing around us     this whole time, haven't you? [19:00] Frieren     I was expecting something underhanded. [19:03] Richter     This is plenty underhanded. [19:06] Richter     While Denken keeps you busy,     I'll kill one of those two kids. [19:13] Frieren     I see. [19:14] Frieren     If we can't pass because we're lacking a     party member, we'll be forced to back off. [19:21] Lawine     Interesting. Try me. [19:23] Kanne     Lawine, he's strong. [19:26] Lawine     I know. [19:30] Denken     Don't, Richter. All we need     to do is keep them busy. [19:35] Denken     We can win this fight. [19:37] Richter     Denken, I thought you were a     more merciless and cold man. [19:43] Richter     You're an imperial mage, aren't you? [19:45] Richter     I'm sure you've killed political enemies     more than a couple of times. [19:57] Denken     I simply don't believe being a first-class mage     is worth killing someone. [20:02] Frieren     I can agree with that. [20:05] Frieren     "First-class mage" is just a title. [20:08] Frieren     It's not that valuable. [20:12] Richter     You can't be serious. [20:14] Richter     You mean you took this test without     knowing the privilege that title grants? [20:17] Frieren     Privilege? [20:20] Richter     More than fifty years ago,     the great mage and founder [20:25] Richter     of the Continental Magic Association,     Serie, suddenly appeared [20:31] Richter     to reign over humanity's magic. [20:34] Richter     She's still searching for mages refined     during the long war against the Demon King. [20:42] Richter     So she promised to grant a special     privilege to anyone who achieved [20:46] Richter     the rank of first-class mage. [20:50] Richter     She will grant them any     one spell they desire. [20:54] Richter     Serie is a living grimoire who knows nearly     every spell in humanity's history. [21:00] Richter     She's the closest mage in our world to the     all-knowing and all-powerful Goddess. [21:05] Richter     You could acquire massive wealth, [21:08] Richter     cure the gravest of diseases,     or gain overwhelming power. [21:14] Richter     For mages, to gain whatever spell they want     is equivalent to having a wish granted. [21:21] Richter     People are simple. [21:23] Richter     So modern first-class mages are all      monsters who barely seem human. [21:29] Richter     It's that valuable a privilege. [21:31] Frieren     I see. [21:33] Denken     This is nonsense. [21:38] Richter     Denken, people like you who don't care     about the privilege are the minority. [21:45] Richter     Let's begin. [21:47] Richter     Denken, keep her busy for one minute. [21:49] Richter     That's enough time for me     to kill the two of them. [21:52] Denken     Don't make me say it again, Richter. [21:55] Denken     They're just kids. [21:57] Denken     We're simply going to put them     to sleep for three hours. [22:00] Denken     You can handle looking after     some children, can't you? [22:02] Richter     Denken. [22:07] Denken     I'll crush her. [22:10] Denken     That should be enough. [22:12] Richter     You old fart. [22:15] Richter     Bargland. [22:35] Denken     The young are too hot-blooded. [22:49] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     And I'm alright (I'll be alright) [22:53] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Yeah, I hear you (I care about you) [22:55] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     The wind teases this hair that's longer now [23:01] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     There's meaning in everything [23:04] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Even the days that came to a halt [23:07] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Now that I finally understand,     I've caught up to you [23:13] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     See, things that couldn't have been [23:17] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Seen if it weren't for these eyes [23:20] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Why? They begin to overflow [23:24] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     I won't ask to see you, so at least [23:31] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Let me remember the past, just for today [23:36] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     So, if we were to meet again [23:42] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     No more hesitations, I'd choose the present [23:49] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Anytime, anywhere, yah (wherever you are) [23:52] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Anytime, anywhere (smile for me) [23:57] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     I'll be there (close your eyes,     and I'll always be there) [24:00] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Even if there are no absolutes [24:03] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     I'm always aware of your thoughts [24:06] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Those tears will be alright,     dawn will surely break [24:12] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     I'm whispering our lullaby     for you to come back home [24:20] Denken     You inexperienced fool. [24:20] Frieren     A spell that I desire? [24:21] Lawine     The difference between our mana is too great. [24:21] Laufen     But she underestimates us. [24:22] Richter     Give me a break. [24:23] Genau     That old man fights rather spectacularly. [24:23] Kanne     I know! [24:24] Flamme     This is Frieren.

[05:13] Lawine     The difference between     our mana is too great. [05:15] Lawine     Nephtear. [05:24] Richter     Weak. [05:30] Lawine     Kanne, defense! [05:31] Kanne     I know! [05:35] Richter     You two put on quite the show earlier, [05:38] Richter     so I believe I know most of your tricks. [05:44] Richter     Relatively non-lethal ice magic, [05:48] Richter     and a mage who can't fight without water. [05:53] Richter     What am I even doing here? [05:56] Richter     This really is just babysitting. [06:05] Lawine     That's not a nice thing to say. [06:07] Lawine     Won't you run out of mana     casting such flashy spells? [06:13] Richter     You graduated from magic school, didn't you? [06:16] Richter     Are the old folks still teaching their students     to fight defensive battles of attrition? [06:23] Kanne     What do you mean? [06:24] Richter     Let me lecture you on the history of magic. [06:29] Richter     The defensive spell developed to combat     Zoltraak is highly resistant to magic itself, [06:36] Richter     but its effectiveness against physical     objects has hardly changed since then. [06:42] Richter     Naturally, there's a clear reason for that. [06:46] Richter     It's enough to defend against the physical     attacks of monsters and warriors. [06:52] Richter     Defensive magic mustn't be over-engineered. [06:56] Richter     If we aimed for perfection,     the technique would become too complex, [07:00] Richter     which would have a fatal effect     on activation time. [07:03] Richter     The history of magic is one     of attacking and defending. [07:07] Richter     It's the reason there's a trend     for modern attack spells [07:09] Richter     to involve controlling physical objects. [07:14] Richter     Do you understand what I'm getting at? [07:19] Lawine     Kanne, no! Move! [07:27] Richter     My spells overwhelm my opponents     with high-volume physical attacks. [07:33] Richter     Now stay down. [07:39] Richter     Give me a break. [07:41] Richter     I'm not interested in hurting you. [07:43] Richter     Or do you want me to kill you after all? [07:47] Lawine     Should you be approaching us so carelessly? [07:51] Lawine     Sixty percent of the human body     is made of water. [07:55] Richter     So what? [07:57] Richter     Magic is a world of visual imagination. [08:00] Richter     Can you picture how that water is distributed     throughout a person's body, [08:05] Richter     and how you'd remove and manipulate it? [08:08] Richter     How would you do that to a mage     protected by a large amount of mana? [08:14] Richter     Spells can't produce effects     you can't picture. [08:17] Richter     And even if there were water here,     a small girl like you is no threat to me. [08:24] Lawine     Not even bluffing works?     I hate adults like you. [08:29] Lawine     But I have figured out one thing. [08:32] Lawine     You're lying. [08:35] Lawine     If you loved fighting enough     to lecture us on it, [08:38] Lawine     you would've beaten us     somewhere there was water. [08:42] Lawine     What are you so afraid of? [08:48] Richter     Behave yourselves. [08:51] Richter     My job is just to put you two to sleep. [08:55] Richter     As long as Denken doesn't lose, that is. [09:10] Denken     At this rate, this battle will end     when she exhausts my mana. [09:16] Denken     This is all a bit tough for this old body. [09:19] Denken     My apologies, Frieren, but I'm     going to settle this quickly. [09:25] Denken     Waldgose. [09:29] Denken     Daosdorg. [09:37] Richter     What is that decrepit old man doing? [09:42] Genau     That old man fights rather spectacularly. [09:45] Sense     Will the barrier hold? [09:47] Genau     Of course. The barrier was created     by the great mage Serie. [09:53] Genau     It cannot be destroyed by brute force. [09:56] Sense     Oh? That's good, then. [09:59] Sense     By the way, since around yesterday evening, [10:02] Sense     someone's been analyzing the barrier. [10:05] Genau     Why? [10:07] Sense     I don't know. [10:08] Genau     In any case, they're wasting their time. [10:12] Genau     Do you really think there's a mage     in this world greater than Serie? [10:24] Denken     Catastravia. [10:35] Denken     Impossible. A counterattack? [10:37] Denken     That was a continuous volley     of spears of light. [10:40] Denken     She shouldn't have had the opportunity. [10:59] Denken     I'm out of mana. So this is the end. [11:03] Denken     I don't believe it. [11:05] Denken     She only used basic combat     spells until the end. [11:10] Denken     This was practically a combat     lesson for a trainee mage. [11:16] Denken     I'm surprised. [11:18] Denken     Even at my level, there was     still someone above me. [11:22] Frieren     Tell me where Laufen is. [11:25] Frieren     I know you know. [11:27] Frieren     I'm taking back our Stille. [11:30] Denken     If you were in my position,     do you think you'd tell me? [11:34] Frieren     You're right. [11:46] Frieren     Laufen, you're hiding nearby, aren't you? [11:50] Frieren     Bring the Stille here. [11:53] Frieren     If you don't, I'll kill Denken. [11:57] Denken     Don't do it, Laufen.     She doesn't intend to kill me. [12:01] Denken     You can tell, can't you? [12:02] Lauren     The old man was beaten. [12:04] Lauren     She's a far better mage than me—     no, better than even Richter. [12:10] Lauren     But she underestimates us. [12:12] Lauren     She's not touching the old man's body. [12:14] Denken     Don't use Jilwer. Stay hidden. [12:19] Denekn     If you release even the slightest bit     of mana, she'll detect you. [12:22] Lauren     From this distance, I could     retrieve the old man and flee! [12:26] Denken     Don't. It's a trap. [12:28] Frieren     You leave me no choice. [12:30] Frieren     I don't really want to do this, but... [12:35] Frieren     Found you. [12:38] Denken     You fool. [12:43] Denken     You inexperienced fool. [12:45] Denken     You knew she wouldn't kill me. [12:48] Laufen     But she planned to hurt you     without killing you. [12:54] Denken     We still would've won. [12:58] Laufen     Why are you so desperate     to become a first-class mage? [13:03] Laufen     You've got wealth, influence,     and everything else you could want. [13:12] Denken     My homeland is located deep     in the Northern Plateau. [13:17] Denken     Because the demons are acting up, only     first-class mages can enter the area now. [13:23] Denken     I wanted to visit a grave     I haven't been to in a while. [13:27] Denken     That's all. [13:30] Denken     Shouldn't you go help the kids? [13:34] Denken     Perhaps it's too late, though. [13:37] Denken     Richter will kill them before he faces you. [13:42] Denken     He's capable of making pragmatic choices. [13:46] Frieren     They'll be fine. Kanne and Lawine will win. [13:52] Frieren     I just finished analyzing the barrier. [13:57] Richter     I wasn't expecting Denken to lose. [14:01] Richter     Now, then. [14:03] Richter     Babysitting time is over. [14:31] Lawine     He's actually trying to kill us now. [14:34] Lawine     We won't last a minute against him. [14:37] Laufen     Analyzing the barrier? [14:40] Laufen     What do you mean? [14:44] Denken     Frieren. Don't tell me, you... [14:58] Sense     Genau. [14:59] Genau     It's not a problem. It's impossible. [15:03] Genau     Even if the world were turned upside down— [15:13] Sense     It's going to break. [15:21] Genau     Sense, who is that elf mage? [15:26] Sense     According to the list of test-takers,     her name is Frieren. [15:30] Genau     That's the name of the mage who     traveled with the party of heroes. [15:34] Sense     She apparently had a holy emblem, too. [15:38] Genau     So she's the last great mage. [15:41] Serie     Now you've done it, Frieren. [15:44] Serie     It's been a thousand years,     and this is how you say hello? [15:49] Serie     This is why I can't quit being a mage. [15:52] Serie     In the world of magic, sometimes     the world is turned upside down. [15:58] Denken     I can't believe you actually     destroyed the barrier. [16:02] Laufen     Why would you do that? [16:04] Frieren     Because I felt sorry for Kanne. [16:07] Frieren     Magic should be free. [16:09] Denken     She controls water, does she? [16:13] Frieren     Magic is a world of visual imagination. [16:16] Frieren     Can you imagine defeating a mage     who controls water in the rain? [16:21] Frieren     At the very least, I can't. [16:24] Frieren     I doubt Richter can either. [16:27] Richter     The barrier... [16:29] Richter     What happened? [16:31] Kanne     It's raining. [16:32] Richter     No, I can figure out what happened later. [16:36] Richter     I have to finish them now— [16:38] Lawine     You finally showed an opening. [16:40] Lawine     Your panic is disrupting your mana. [16:43] Richter     This will only buy you time! [16:47] Lawine     I see now why you feared a spell     that could control water. [16:54] Lawine     This is the perfect example of the     high-volume physical attacks you mentioned. [17:00] Kanne     Lawine, don't let him get away. [17:04] Kanne     Reamstroha. [17:09] Richter     There's nowhere for me to run, anyway. [17:14] Richter     This is why I don't like water. [17:31] Frieren     Looks like you won. [17:33] Frieren     Let's get away from here. [17:35] Frieren     The sun sets in two hours. [17:37] Frieren     You can conceal your mana     until then, can't you? [17:39] Lawine     I don't have any mana left to conceal. [17:42] Frieren     I see. You did well. [17:46] Lawine     Don't pat my head. [17:50] Richter     Sorry. [17:53] Denken     It was inevitable. [18:00] Richter     Denken and I are out of mana. [18:05] Richter     We have two hours left. [18:07] Richter     We're finished. [18:12] Denken     Laufen, can you dispel the binding? [18:15] Laufen     You must be joking.     This binding spell is ridiculously powerful. [18:19] Denken     Then bring down the tree instead. [18:31] Richter     Denken, there's nothing we can do. [18:33] Laufen     I don't have the mana left     to use Jilwer anymore. [18:39] Denken     Richter and Laufen, what do you think     an imperial mage does in this situation? [18:46] Denken     He keeps fighting until the end. [18:51] Denken     We'll search for signs of battles fought     by other parties and track them down. [18:57] Übel     You know, Fern, [18:59] Übel     you're really rather boring. [19:03] Übel     You seriously do only cast basic spells. [19:07] Fern     You should direct your     complaints to Ms. Frieren. [19:10] Übel     Come to think of it,     that elf is your master, right? [19:17] Übel     It's her fault we're soaking wet right now. [19:20] Übel     Make sure you give her an earful, all right? [19:23] Fern     I intend to. [19:25] Fern     Also, she doesn't limit what spells     I cast outside of combat. [19:30] Übel     Come to think of it, you did cast     a spell to catch that bird. [19:34] Übel     What other spells can you use? [19:37] Fern     Let's see... [19:39] Fern     I have a spell that lets you     see through clothes... [19:43] Fern     I'm not going to cast it. [19:45] Land     I hate to interrupt your     pleasant conversation, [19:49] Land     but maybe you shouldn't reveal     too many of your tricks. [19:52] Land     From the second test onward,     we'll be competing against one another. [19:57] Übel     You're right. [20:00] Übel     Sorry 'bout that. [20:02] Übel     But I think you should've opened up     some more, four-eyes. [20:11] Denken     There they are. [20:12] Denken     It's a defeated party. [20:15] Denken     The corpse of one of their     members was nearby. [20:18] Denken     Even though there's no way for them to pass,     they're keeping a tight hold on their Stille. [20:28] Richter     Are we going to negotiate with them, Denken? [20:31] Denken     They wouldn't cooperate. [20:32] Denken     If I were in their position,     I'd refuse even money. [20:38] Laufen     Why? [20:39] Denken     It wouldn't sit right with me. [20:42] Denken     It's not about logic. [20:45] Denken     Laufen, wait here. [20:47] Denken     If you see an opportunity,     take their Stille. [20:50] Denken     Richter, come with me. [20:53] Richter     What do you intend to do? [21:05] Richter     We're approaching them head-on? [21:07] Richter     We don't have any mana left. [21:11] Denken     Don't you get it? [21:14] Denken     They're in the same boat. [21:26] Denken     Prepare yourself. [21:31] Denken     You're a man, aren't you? [21:35] Richter     You're joking, right? [21:39] Denken     Let's settle this with our fists!

[02:13] Stark     Lazing around isn't half bad. [02:25] Stark     What's going on? [02:29] Stark     Coming. [02:43] Stark     Fern? I thought you were at     the first-class mage exam. [02:48] Fern     The first test is over.     We returned last night. [02:52] Fern     Mr. Stark, you know it's evening, don't you? [02:56] Stark     What? [02:59] Fern     You were asleep, weren't you? [03:03] Fern     Did you stay up all night? [03:07] Stark     Yes. [03:08] Fern     What else? [03:10] Stark     I drank juice in the middle of the night. [03:14] Stark     Sorry! I'm sorry, okay? [03:17] Frieren     Uh-oh. You made her angry. [03:20] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you only just woke up, too. [03:24] Frieren     Caught in the crossfire. [03:29] Frieren     Looks like we'll be spending     the day making Fern happy. [03:32] Stark     What should we do? [03:34] Frieren     Let's get something good to eat. [03:37] Stark     Something good? [03:39] Frieren     It's a bit expensive, [03:40] Frieren     but I found a nice place when I came here     before with Himmel and the others. [03:44] Stark     Wasn't that over eighty years ago?     Will it still be there? [04:06] Old Woman     Oh, my. [04:08] Old Woman     The lantern lit up. [04:10] Richter     I told you it was an easy fix. [04:13] Old Woman     Thank you as always, Richter. [04:16] Richter     Sure thing. [04:17] Old Woman     I know. You're welcome to have these. [04:21] Old Woman     I'll see you later. [04:30] Richter     Grandma, I'm not a kid anymore. [04:33] Richter     I'm a middle-aged man. [04:35] Old Woman     To an old woman like me,     you're still a child. [04:39] Old Woman     You like those, don't you? [04:53] Richter     Sorry, but the shop is closed. [04:56] Richter     A crazy old man dragged me into a fistfight. [05:01] Richter     I need to rest. [05:03] Denken     Sounds rough, Richter. [05:07] Denken     Why don't we get something     to eat together, then? [05:09] Denken     There's a restaurant we're looking for, [05:12] Denken     but Laufen and I don't know the area. [05:16] Richter     Laufen, what are you doing     with Denken, anyway? [05:21] Richter     And where'd you get that thing you're eating? [05:23] Laufen     The old man bought these for me. [05:25] Laufen     I'm not sharing. [05:26] Richter     What are you, his granddaughter? [05:29] Richter     Now, leave. We're no longer a party. [05:34] Denken     You don't know how to get     along in the world, do you? [05:37] Denken     If you intend to live as a mage, then     ingratiating yourself to me wouldn't hurt. [05:44] Richter     There are plenty of places     to eat around here. [05:47] Richter     Just choose one. [05:49] Denken     My wife and I... [05:51] Denken     Before she passed away,     we visited a restaurant together. [05:55] Denken     I've never forgotten the taste of their food. [06:00] Richter     You'd better be paying. [06:03] Denken     Of course I am. [06:04] Denken     I told you, it can't hurt. [06:37] Übel     Four-eyes. [06:40] Land     Übel. [06:41] Übel     It's nice to finally meet you. [06:44] Übel     You don't use a clone when you're in town? [06:47] Land     If you just want to make small talk,     do you mind if we walk? [06:50] Übel     That's fine, but if you try to run     away from me, I might kill you. [06:57] Land     Can I ask you something? [07:02] Land     You don't think anything     of killing people, do you? [07:09] Land     Why didn't you kill Wirbel? [07:12] Land     You had the opportunity, didn't you? [07:14] Übel     You were watching? [07:16] Übel     Nothing gets past you, huh? [07:22] Übel     It's hard to explain. [07:25] (Flashback) Übel     I'm surprised. [07:27] (Flashback) Übel     Your hands are already drenched in blood,     and yet you still want to remain human. [07:33] (Flashback) Wirbel     That's right. I use this time     to prepare myself to kill. [07:39] Übel     Maybe it's because I empathized with him. [07:43] Übel     It made me want to put off     the killing blow, too. [07:49] Land/Id     I can't move. What is this? [07:53] Übel     Sorganeil. [07:55] Übel     It's a spell that binds whoever I'm looking at. [07:58] Übel     The magic a person specializes in     is strongly related to their life and nature. [08:06] Übel     I've always been this way. [08:09] Übel     Empathizing with someone     allows me to use their spells, [08:13] Übel     and I can't use the spells of anyone     I can't empathize with. [08:17] Übel     Four-eyes, your clones are such     perfect copies of yourself [08:21] Übel     that they're capable of everything you are. [08:24] Übel     What goes through that head of yours?     What kind of life have you led? [08:29] Übel     Tell me. [08:31] Land     I see. [08:34] Land     You use magic by feel. [08:37] Land     The type of mage who casts spells without     understanding the principles behind them. [08:45] Land     I don't like dim-witted people like you. [08:50] Übel     That doesn't answer my question. [08:52] Land     I'm saying I won't tell you     because I don't like you. [08:58] Land     I don't mind if you kill me, [09:01] Land     though you'll never get another chance     to empathize with me if you do. [09:12] Übel     I'll pass. I think I understand you     a little better now. [09:18] Land     Oh? [09:19] Übel     I think I'd like to know more. [09:25] Übel     Where were you headed? [09:28] Land     Who knows? Don't follow me. [09:32] Denken     This is it. [09:34] Richter     You've got a good eye, Denken. [09:37] Richter     This is the best restaurant in town. [09:40] Richter     I come here all the time. [09:42] Denken     My wife and I visited     this place fifty years ago. [09:46] Denken     Looks like it hasn't changed. [09:51] Denken     How curious. [09:58] Fern     Really? [10:00] Fern     You're sure I can order     as many desserts as I want? [10:04] Frieren     Sure. [10:05] Ritcher     Denken, it's Frieren. [10:07] Stark     What should I get? [10:09] Frieren     I recommend... [10:11] Fern     It's not my birthday.     Can I really indulge myself like this? [10:15] Denken     Leave them be. They look     like they're having fun. [10:19] Denken     Meals should be enjoyed. [10:22] Denken     We're here for the same reason, after all. [10:35] Frieren     All right. Time to stuff myself. [10:38] Stark     That's a ton of food, huh? [10:39] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you like to eat like     this sometimes, don't you? [10:48] (Flashback) Lecker     Thank you for returning the heirloom knife     the demons took from me. [10:54] (Flashback) Lecker     I, Lecker, the greatest chef of the century, [10:57] (Flashback) Lecker     shall provide you with the ultimate service     and reward you however I can. [11:02] (Flashback) Heiter     That's a lot of food, isn't it? [11:04] (Flashback) Frieren     The food here is good. [11:07] (Flashback) Frieren     We'd better savor everything we can. [11:09] (Flashback) Himmel     You still don't need to eat so much at once. [11:11] (Flashback) Himmel     There's always next time. [11:13] (Flashback) Frieren     I thought so, too, but there are many flavors     I've never been able to experience again. [11:20] (Flashback) Lecker     Don't worry, Ms. Frieren. [11:24] (Flashback) Lecker     This restaurant's flavors will live on     through future generations. [11:28] (Flashback) Lecker     They'll still be around 100     or even 200 years from now. [11:33] (Flashback) Frieren     I see. It's interesting, isn't it?     All chefs say that. [11:39] (Flashback) Frieren     Then they try to leave their mark     by changing the flavors of past dishes. [11:45] (Flashback) Himmel     If that happens, we can simply find     even more delicious flavors. [11:50] (Flashback) Lecker     Forgive me, Mr. Himmel, but there are     no flavors in this world greater than mine. [11:56] (Flashback) Himmel     Then you'd better make sure     they last into the future. [11:59] (Flashback) Himmel     That's the reward I ask for this job. [12:06] (Flashback) Lecker     If that is your wish, Hero, then I shall do     what no chef has done before. [12:20] Stark     Frieren, this is really good! [12:23] Fern     Does anyone deserve to be this happy? [12:33] Frieren     Seriously? Despite all he said,     the flavors have changed. [12:39] Frieren     But now I don't have to     look for tastier flavors. [12:45] Frieren     It's way better now than it was back then. [12:53] Stark     It really is good. [12:56] Fern     You have food on your cheek, Mr. Stark. [12:59] Denken     You must eat your vegetables, too. [13:01] Richter     You're totally acting like her grandfather. [13:04] Übel     Huh. You're a lighter eater than I expected. [13:08] Land     What's wrong with that? [13:11] Fern     That was delicious, Ms. Frieren. [13:17] Frieren     I'm glad she's in a better mood. [13:20] Stark     By the way, how's our money situation? [13:24] Frieren     I used up my savings. [13:29] Old Man     This is the state of nothingness. [13:33] Old Man     You've arrived at the essence of martial arts. [13:38] Old Man     There is nothing left for me to teach you. [13:53] Frieren     Who was that old man? [13:55] Stark     I don't know. [13:57] Stark     He comes to talk to me when I'm training. [14:00] Frieren     You seem to attract a lot of weird people. [14:03] Frieren     Well, whatever. Do you have a minute? [14:06] Frieren     I'd like your help with something. [14:09] Stark     What happened? [14:13] Stark     The heck? She's super pissed off. [14:16] Stark     She's in an even worse mood than yesterday. [14:18] Frieren     I know. [14:19] Stark     What did you do? [14:21] Frieren     It was my turn to go shopping today,     but I overslept. [14:25] Stark     You do that all the time.     Why would she get mad about it now? [14:29] Frieren     Fern is the type to let things     build up until she explodes. [14:33] Stark     What happens when she explodes? [14:36] Frieren     She gives me the silent treatment. [14:39] Stark     Do you have to fight like children? [14:41] Frieren     Please, Stark. I need you to mediate for us. [14:44] Frieren     She won't talk to me. [14:47] Stark     What? No way. I'm too scared. [14:52] Frieren     You're right. Sorry.     That was an unreasonable ask. [15:02] Stark     Listen, Ms. Fern.     She's sorry for what she did. [15:10] Fern     I want to eat. [15:11] Stark     What? [15:14] Fern     I want to eat snacks. [15:20] Stark     She's such a pain in the butt. [15:23] Stark     Then let's go buy some together. [15:26] Frieren     I wonder if I've got any savings left. [15:36] Kanne     Huh? Isn't he... [15:39] Kanne     Wirbel of the Northern Magic Corps, right? [15:44] Wirbel     You're a warrior, aren't you? [15:46] Youngster     Huh? What do you want? [15:49] Scharf     What do you think? [15:51] Youngster     Huh? What? [15:55] Wirbel     He won't do. [16:00] Kanne     I wonder what he's up to. [16:03] Lawine     Thanks for waiting, Kanne. [16:07] Kanne     You're looking cuter than ever, Lawine. [16:11] Lawine     My brothers are home     from the imperial capital. [16:17] Lawine     They always buy crap I don't need. [16:21] Lawine     I'm not their dress-up doll. [16:24] Lawine     My mom's really into it, too. [16:26] Lawine     She made no effort to stop them. [16:30] Kanne     You're even more spoiled than me. [16:33] Lawine     If that's what you think,     then let's trade places. [16:35] Lawine     It's hell being compared     to my talented brothers. [16:39] Lawine     Come on, let's go. This outfit is so stifling. [16:47] Kanne     Then allow me to escort you today,     Little Miss Lawine. [16:57] Kanne     Ow, ow! You're gonna rip them off! [17:21] Stark     Um, Ms. Fern. What would you like? [17:26] Fern     Anything is fine. You can choose, Mr. Stark. [17:32] Stark     She only says that when     she wants something specific. [17:36] Stark     What should we do? [17:38] Frieren     Don't ask me. [17:44] Lawine     Hey, isn't that Frieren? [17:47] Kanne     Yeah. [17:51] Kanne     I'm glad we ran into you. [17:53] Kanne     We were just thinking about     visiting you at the inn. [17:56] Stark     Who are they? [17:58] Frieren     We were in the same party     during the first test. [18:01] Kanne     Frieren was really helpful. [18:06] Kanne     Also, she was like a teacher. [18:09] Stark     Oh? [18:10] Frieren     Because you two wouldn't stop fighting. [18:12] Kanne     It's Lawine's fault. [18:15] Kanne     Ow, ow! [18:15] Stark     I don't feel comfortable     being surrounded by girls. [18:17] Frieren     Now, now. [18:18] Wirbel     Hey. [18:19] Stark     What? [18:19] Wirbel     You're a warrior, aren't you? [18:21] Stark     Huh? [18:23] Stark     What? H-Hey... [18:25] Stark     Stop. Wh-What's this about? [18:29] Wirbel     You're great. [18:31] Stark     What's going on?! [18:34] Wirbel     The Continental Magic Association [18:36] Wirbel     has hired me to eliminate a Fresser     that's been ravaging crops. [18:40] Wirbel     I'm looking for a front-liner. [18:42] Wirbel     We met during the test, right? [18:44] Wirbel     Is he your friend? Can I borrow him? [18:47] Fern     Go right ahead. [18:48] Stark     How could you?! [18:51] Stark     How could you? [18:51] Kanne     He's taking your friend away.     Are you okay with this? [18:54] Fern     It'll be fine. He had no ill intentions. [18:58] Fern     I could hardly believe he was the same person. [19:00] Lawine     He's probably the type who can     turn it on and off for work. [19:03] Lawine     My brothers are like that, too. [19:07] Kanne     Here, Frieren. [19:09] Kanne     Thank you. [19:12] Frieren     I didn't do anything to deserve your thanks. [19:16] Lawine     No. [19:18] Lawine     If not for you, we wouldn't have     advanced to the second test. [19:22] Kanne     Thank you. [19:26] (Flashback) Girl     Thank you, Mr. Himmel. [19:30] (Flashback) Himmel     There's nothing to worry about now. [19:32] (Flashback) Girl     Yeah. [19:33] (Flashback) Himmel     Go on. Your parents are waiting for you. [19:36] (Flashback) Girl     Okay. [19:44] (Flashback) Frieren     Himmel, why do you help people? [19:47] (Flashback) Himmel     Because I'm a hero. [19:49] (Flashback) Frieren     That's not what I meant. [19:53] (Flashback) Himmel     Well, maybe I do it for myself. [19:58] (Flashback) Himmel     Maybe it's because I want     people to remember me. [20:07] (Flashback) Himmel     To live is to be known     and remembered by others. [20:14] (Flashback) Frieren     What should I do to be remembered? [20:19] (Flashback) Himmel     Change someone's life,     even just in a small way. [20:25] (Flashback) Himmel     That's probably enough. [20:36] Kanne     Anyway, then Lawine... [20:40] Lawine     No, that was you, Kanne. [20:43] Kanne     What? Is that right? [20:45] Lawine     There was that other time, too. Remember? [20:49] Fern     Ms. Frieren, these sweets     they gave us are really good. [20:53] Frieren     You're finally feeling better. [20:56] Lawine     Come to think of it, Frieren struggled     to get up on the morning of the second day. [21:00] Frieren     Don't talk about that.     You'll sour her mood again. [21:04] Fern     Hmph. [21:06] Lawine     Frieren. [21:08] Lawine     Typically, the first-class mage exam     consists of three tests. [21:13] Lawine     Next time, we'll be enemies. [21:15] Frieren     That's true. [21:26] Frieren     What's that? [21:27] Fern     It's a notification of the next test. [21:30] Fern     There's the location and date     of the second test, [21:32] Fern     as well as the proctor's name. [21:36] Lawine     The proctor is Sense, huh?     Our luck just ran out. [21:39] Kanne     Aw, man. And after we passed     the first test and everything. [21:43] Fern     What do you mean? [21:46] Lawine     Sense has proctored four tests in the past. [21:50] Lawine     Not a single person passed any of them. [22:23] Stark     This meat is good. [22:25] Wirbel     You're incredible. You demonstrated     the essence of martial arts! [22:33] Genau     You've put together a dreadful test. [22:38] Sense     You think so? [22:40] Sense     I'm a pacifist, Genau, [22:45] Sense     unlike you.

[24:20] Laufen     It's a gargoyle! [24:21] Fern     It's a mimic. [24:21] Richter     Brutal. It doesn't even leave bones behind. [24:22] Ton     I can't agree to that. [24:23] Denken     It must be the work of demons or monsters. [24:24] Frieren     We'll proceed with caution     while mapping the dungeon. [24:25] Methode     They must be terrifyingly powerful.

SIGN    At the Ruins of the King's Tomb,     located in the northern lands [00:06] Sense     To the eighteen of you     who passed the first test... SIGN    Second Test Proctor SIGN    Sense, First-Class Mage [00:10] Sense     First, congratulations on making it here. [00:14] Sense     I hear people speculate all kinds of things     about my tests based on past results. [00:23] Sense     I'm sure there are some of you     who have heard such rumors, [00:27] Sense     but you needn't prepare     yourselves for the worst. [00:30] Sense     The test is very simple. [00:33] Sense     Anyone who wishes to become a first-class     mage should be able to pass it with ease. [00:39] Sense     Now, allow me to explain     the details of the second test. [00:54] [SONG] Op Lyrics     You're there like the wind [00:58] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Closing your eyes at sunset [01:02] [SONG] Op Lyrics     I wonder what's on your mind SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [01:13] [SONG] Op Lyrics     With your eyelids open [01:17] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Your eyes shone like glass [01:21] [SONG] Op Lyrics     It faintly smelled like a sunny day [01:34] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Clear up the sky, let flowers bloom [01:39] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Bloom and blame it on the sunny sky [01:43] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Even the rain, when it stops [01:48] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Will make you shine in the sunlight [01:53] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Calm the stirring sounds in my heart [01:58] [SONG] Op Lyrics     We go like the sunny wind [02:02] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Go on and fly over that cloud [02:06] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Further and further away SIGN    Episode 23: Conquering the Labyrinth [02:19] Sense     For the second test,     you will be raiding a dungeon. [02:22] Sense     You will raid the Ruins of the King's Tomb. [02:27] Sense     There is only one condition for passing:     you must reach the deepest floor of the tomb. [02:35] Sense     I am a pacifist. I dislike fighting. [02:39] Sense     Therefore, everyone who reaches     the bottom will pass. [02:43] Blei     Wait. [02:45] Blei     Many adventurers have failed to return     from this unexplored dungeon. [02:50] Blei     Are you planning to fail     all the test-takers again? [02:53] Sense     What are you talking about? [02:55] Sense     You are attempting to reach     the pinnacle of magehood. [03:00] Sense     First-class mages make     the impossible possible. [03:04] Sense     You must forge ahead, regardless of whether     or not anyone's been there before you. [03:10] Methode     How should we prove we've reached the bottom? [03:15] Methode     Should we return with treasure? [03:18] Sense     You won't need to prove it. [03:20] Sense     I will descend to the bottom     of the dungeon with you. [03:24] Sense     Naturally, I will not be     assisting the test-takers. [03:28] Sense     Also, each of you will receive     one of these bottles. [03:34] Sense     It's an escape golem developed     by the first-class mage Lernen. [03:40] Sense     When the bottle is shattered, [03:42] Sense     the golem will manifest     and carry you out of the dungeon. [03:46] Sense     They're still prototypes,     but they're safe enough. [03:49] Sense     Using your bottle means you fail the test, [03:52] Sense     but I urge you to do so if you become unable     to continue due to injuries or otherwise. [03:57] Sense     I have no intention of allowing mages     with promising futures to die here. [04:01] Sense     Also, the bottles will shatter     automatically at dawn tomorrow. [04:07] Sense     That is the time limit of the second test. [04:12] Sense     Now, let the test begin. [04:35] Richter     There are multiple entrances. [04:38] Denken     This seems to be a dungeon     of the Unified Dynasty. [04:41] Denken     Dungeons of that era have multiple entrances, [04:45] Denken     but they all lead to the deepest level. [04:48] Denken     Examining the entrances should allow us [04:50] Denken     to determine the internal     structure of the dungeon. [04:54] Denken     The group should split up and— [04:56] Ton     Why are you acting like     we're working together? [05:04] Denken     There's no reason for us to fight this time. [05:08] Denken     It's better for all of us to cooperate. [05:11] Ton     I can't agree to that. [05:15] Ton     Unlike in the first test, our companions'     survival isn't a condition for passing the test. [05:20] Ton     We're not obligated to help each other, [05:24] Ton     and we even risk becoming someone's     sacrificial pawn if the need arises. [05:28] Ton     You in particular seem     knowledgeable about dungeons. [05:33] Ton     I'm going alone. [05:48] Wirbel     We're all carrying baggage from the first test. [05:52] Wirbel     At the very least, I can't work     with anyone I don't know well. [05:59] Wirbel     Let's go. [06:01] Ehre     Wait for me. [06:08] Denken     Those fools. Why don't they realize     working together is better? [06:14] Frieren     Let's go, Fern. [06:16] Fern     Are you sure, Ms. Frieren? [06:19] Frieren     There's no chance of everyone     working together anymore. [06:28] Sense     I see. [06:31] Sense     I shall accompany your group. [06:35] Sense     You seem like you'll have the     safest time reaching the bottom. [06:40] Frieren     You'd better not interfere. [06:42] Sense     I shall neither interfere nor assist you. [06:53] Frieren     This is the safest route. [06:58] Frieren     We'll proceed with caution     while mapping the dungeon. [07:13] Frieren     The floor there is trapped. Be careful. [07:23] Fern     You always know so much about dungeons. [07:27] Frieren     I didn't always. [07:31] Frieren     It was Himmel who loved dungeons. [07:34] Frieren     We entered so many of them     to hunt down monsters. [07:39] Fern     What do you mean, he loved dungeons? [07:43] Frieren     It's exactly what it sounds like. [07:45] Frieren     He said they excited him. [07:48] Frieren     It doesn't make sense, does it? [07:53] (Flashback) Eisen     These stairs lead to the next floor. [07:58] (Flashback) Himmel     I see. Then we chose the wrong route. [08:02] (Flashback) Himmel     Let's head back to the last branch. [08:04] (Flashback) Heiter     Indeed. [08:07] (Flashback) Eisen     Why? We're looking for the monster     at the bottom of the dungeon. [08:12] (Flashback) Himmel     When will you learn, Eisen? [08:16] (Flashback) Himmel     In a dungeon, one must explore the entire     floor before proceeding to the next one. [08:21] (Flashback) Himmel     Every adventurer knows that. [08:23] (Flashback) Eisen     I've never heard that before. [08:26] (Flashback) Himmel     You think I'm being foolish, don't you? [08:31] (Flashback) Himmel     But isn't it best to be able to have fun     while helping people? [08:35] (Flashback) Frieren     It won't always be like this. [08:38] (Flashback) Frieren     As we travel, the dungeons will     become more life-threatening. [08:41] (Flashback) Eisen     That's right. [08:43] (Flashback) Himmel     I intend to enjoy it until the end. [08:45] (Flashback) Himmel     I'll have fun adventuring, raiding dungeons, [08:48] (Flashback) Himmel     defeating monsters, finding treasure, [08:52] (Flashback) Himmel     and before I know it,     I'll have saved the world. [08:56] (Flashback) Himmel     That's the kind of adventure I want to have. [09:00] (Flashback) Himmel     Besides... [09:02] (Flashback) Himmel     There might be a rare grimoire     down the path left untraveled. [09:06] (Flashback) Frieren     What are you doing? Let's hurry back. [09:09] (Flashback) Himmel     What? [09:11] Frieren     It really doesn't make sense, does it? [09:28] Lawine     Kanne, let's go. [09:43] Richter     In the end, only the five of us stayed. [09:46] Denken     We could've beaten the dungeon easily [09:50] Denken     if we'd all worked together     and assigned roles. [09:54] Denken     We had enough skilled mages to make it happen. [09:58] Richter     Denken, not everyone is as pragmatic as you. [10:03] Richter     It's like what you said     toward the end of the first test. [10:10] Richter     It must not have sat right with them. [10:13] Richter     Think of it this way:     only the smartest have remained. [10:17] Richter     At the very least, [10:20] Richter     there aren't any idiots here to hold us back     by falling for simple traps like mimics. [10:25] Richter     Isn't that good enough, Denken? [10:27] Denken     I doubt anyone that foolish would     be taking this test to begin with. [10:32] Denken     Let's go. [10:43] Frieren     This mana... [10:46] Frieren     It might be a grimoire. [10:48] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you saw the results     of that Mikheit spell. [10:53] Fern     It's a mimic. [10:56] Frieren     Fern, that spell is only 99% accurate. [11:01] Fern     And what if it is? [11:03] Frieren     Historical discoveries have been made by     great mages who recognized that remaining 1%. [11:16] Frieren     It's just as I thought. [11:19] Frieren     There's a valuable grimoire inside here. [11:23] Frieren     That's what my experience     as a mage is telling me. [11:33] Frieren     It's dark and scary in here! [11:38] Frieren     It's dark! I'm scared! [11:41] Frieren     It's dark and scary! [11:56] Sense     Maybe I chose the wrong people to follow. [12:09] Denken     Don't step on the floor in the center. [12:11] Denken     The ceiling will come crashing down on you. [12:17] Laufen     Is that person-shaped stain there... [12:20] Richter     Brutal. It doesn't even leave bones behind. [12:45] Laufen     Gargoyles! [13:44] Richter     Denken, someone got trapped. [13:47] Denken     I know. [13:48] Richter     She's on the other side of the wall. [13:51] Denken     Stand back. [14:00] Denken     It didn't work. [14:02] Denken     Then we have no choice. [14:03] Denken     Break your bottle! [14:22] Laufen     Wow. [14:23] Denken     We're already down another test-taker. [14:29] Denken     Letting your guard down for a moment     here could cost you your life. [14:34] Denken     So these are the Ruins of the King's Tomb. [14:47] Frieren     Hey, Fern. Can I make a suggestion? [14:51] Frieren     Stop pulling. You're going to rip me in half. [14:54] Fern     Okay. [14:57] Frieren     To save someone from a mimic,     you should push in instead. [15:01] Frieren     It makes the mimic choke and stop biting. [15:05] Fern     Is it a dog or something? [15:10] Frieren     I'm safe. [15:14] Fern     Honestly. [15:15] Fern     How did you get out of those     when you were by yourself? [15:19] Frieren     By blowing them up from the inside     with offensive magic. [15:23] Frieren     But I don't like to do it     since it makes my hair frizz up. [15:26] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm back. [15:28] (Flashback) Frieren     I have ringlets now. [15:31] Fern     So that's why you'd sometimes     have a different hairstyle. [15:35] (Flashback) Fern     Why? [15:37] Frieren     Let's pull ourselves together and keep going. [15:50] Frieren     Gargoyles. [15:52] Frieren     We'll defeat them before they start moving. [15:58] Fern     We've been seeing these     medals all over the place. [16:01] Frieren     Apparently some dilettante collects them. [16:09] Frieren     This looks like the main route.     Let's turn back. [16:12] Fern     Why? [16:18] Fern     We're progressing more     smoothly than I expected. [16:20] Frieren     It does seem a bit odd     for an unexplored dungeon. [16:24] Frieren     Judging by its construction,     we should be nearing the bottom, too. [16:28] Frieren     Either way, don't let your guard down. [16:31] Frieren     Let's take a break in the     next burial chamber we find. [16:38] Frieren     We've acquired some pretty nice stuff. [16:40] Fern     It just looks like junk to me. [16:43] Sense     Huh. [16:48] Sense     I don't get it. [16:50] Fern     Neither do I. [16:52] Fern     Why do those things make her happy? [16:56] Fern     She's rubbing it on her cheek. [17:00] Sense     You're the one I don't understand, Fern. [17:04] Sense     I've never seen a mage     as skilled as you at your age. [17:09] Sense     You must have trained rather hard. [17:12] Sense     And yet I sense no passion     or determination in you. [17:15] Sense     You're a strange girl. [17:20] Fern     I became a proper mage     to repay a debt to someone. [17:29] Fern     That was my life's goal at the time. [17:33] Fern     I devoted all my effort to achieving it [17:35] Fern     without considering anything     that would come after that. [17:40] Fern     I must've used up all my passion     and determination then. [17:48] Sense     Then why do you continue     searching for magic? [17:55] Fern     Ms. Frieren seems to be     having fun, doesn't she? [17:58] Sense     Yes. [18:01] Fern     The first time I entered a dungeon, [18:04] Fern     Ms. Frieren joyfully smiled     while collecting magic junk. [18:15] Fern     It made me smile, too. [18:18] Fern     I think I continue searching for magic     because I like seeing her happy. [18:29] Fern     We should get going. [18:36] Sense     Looks like I was right     to follow you after all. [18:41] Sense     I'm sure you can enjoy     even this brutal dungeon. [19:10] Scharf     The atmosphere has changed. [19:12] Wirbel     Maybe we're near the bottom. [19:18] Ehre     Wirbel. [19:19] Wirbel     What? Can't walk any— [19:21] Ehre     I'm restrained. [19:23] Ehre     There are three mages concealing their mana. [19:26] Ehre     It's an ambush. [19:27] Wirbel     Oh? [19:33] Wirbel     Scharf, block their vision. [19:35] Wirbel     The spell cast on Ehre is Sorganeil. [19:37] Scharf     I know. [19:54] Wirbel     No wonder the Ruins of the King's Tomb     have never been conquered. [20:00] Wirbel     I wasn't expecting to encounter these here. [20:05] Wirbel     Scharf, you're on me. [20:07] Wirbel     Ehre, you're on Scharf. [20:09] Wirbel     And I'll take on Ehre. [20:13] Wirbel     Let's do this. [20:55] Denken     It's a replica made using magic. [20:59] Denken     It must be the work of demons or monsters. [21:03] Denken     But I've never seen such a perfect copy     of another person before. [21:08] Denken     Its mana and skills were     the same as yours, Laufen. [21:13] Denken     So was its behavior. [21:14] Denken     It's possible even our memories were used. [21:19] Laufen     I don't like this. [21:22] Richter     The one saving grace is that it's     instantly recognizable as a fake. [21:28] Richter     At the very least, there's no danger     of us attacking each other. [21:32] Methode     If whoever cast this spell can control     multiple copies simultaneously, [21:38] Methode     they must be terrifyingly powerful. [21:43] Denken     Either way, we were right to team up. [21:50] Denken     It gives us more options     for dealing with them. [22:18] Richter     Denken, can we deal with that, too? [22:27] Denken     The one thing I can say     is that if this weren't a test, [22:32] Denken     I would've shattered my bottle     a long time ago. [22:50] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     And I'm alright (I'll be alright) [22:53] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Yeah, I hear you (I care about you) [22:56] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     The wind teases this hair that's longer now [23:01] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     There's meaning in everything [23:04] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Even the days that came to a halt [23:07] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Now that I finally understand,     I've caught up to you [23:13] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     See, things that couldn't have been [23:17] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Seen if it weren't for these eyes [23:20] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Why?

[24:20] Frieren     Smells nice. [24:21] Edel     It's time. [24:22] Übel/Id     If we're evenly matched, [24:23] Land     That's not funny. [24:24] Übel/Id     then who wins will come down to luck. [24:24] Methode     Could you please look into my eyes? [24:25] Blei     So it's not impossible. [24:26] Dünste     How much time do you need?

[00:10] Wirbel     I wasn't expecting to encounter these here. [00:23] Richter     Denken, can we deal with that, too? [00:32] Denken     The one thing I can say     is that if this weren't a test, [00:37] Denken     I would've shattered my bottle     a long time ago.

[02:36] Genau     It is a monster from a mythical era that     appears in Ewig the Sage's heroic tales. [02:43] Genau     We believe the Spiegel reads the memories     of those who enter the dungeon [02:48] Genau     and creates perfect replicas of its targets. [02:54] Genau     There are similar monsters in the     modern era such as the Einsam, [03:00] Genau     but the Spiegel's perfect replicas     have physical substance [03:06] Genau     and copy the target's     abilities, mana, and skills. [03:11] Genau     It is the reason the Ruins of the King's Tomb     remain unconquered to this day. [03:15] Falsch     Why did Sense choose     this dungeon for her test? [03:19] Genau     A person is evenly matched     against their copy. [03:22] Genau     Defeating them without suffering casualties [03:25] Genau     requires cool-headed     self-analysis and teamwork. [03:33] Genau     It's exactly the kind of test a pacifist     like her would put together. [03:46] Denken     This isn't good. [03:48] Denken     We should retreat. [03:58] Richter     Denken! [04:01] Denken     Now then, what are we going to do about this? [04:13] Übel     It's a dead end. [04:15] Übel     We're cornered. [04:28] Übel     Four-eyes, could I get your opinion     as a cloning magic specialist? [04:35] Land     I told you, my name is Land. [04:39] Land     But ask away. [04:46] Übel     How perfect a copy of me     do you think that replica is? [04:52] Land     Übel, you're chatty even     during combat, aren't you? [04:59] Land     It's like you'd die if you stopped talking. [05:03] Übel     You've been watching me closely. [05:06] Übel     Yeah, that's true. I'd probably die. [05:12] Übel     And yet it's so quiet. [05:16] Übel     Does that mean it hasn't copied     my memories or personality? [05:21] Land     No, it's probably just incapable of speaking. [05:25] Land     During the initial attack,     it swiped my escape golem bottle. [05:38] Übel     I see. That is what I would do. [05:42] Land     It knows about us, too. [05:46] Land     It's not attacking despite cornering us     because it's wary of your Sorganeil. [05:55] Übel     Either that, or it's enjoying tormenting us. [06:01] Land     That's not funny. [06:05] Übel     You're bleeding a lot. [06:09] Übel     You know, you won't last long like this. [06:13] Land     You're right. [06:16] Übel     Can I ask you one last question? [06:20] Übel     Are you the real one? [06:25] Land     Who knows? [06:28] Übel     Uh-huh. [06:35] Übel     Use my bottle. [06:40] Land     But you need that to survive. [06:43] Übel     Oh, yeah? [06:47] Übel     In that case, wait here, four-eyes. [06:52] Übel     I'm going to get your bottle back. [06:55] Land     Hey, wait— [07:02] Übel     I expected it to close the gap. [07:06] Übel     I need to see its entire body     in order to cast Sorganeil. [07:14] Übel     Whoever miscalculates the distance first     will lose this battle. [07:23] Übel     If we're evenly matched,     then who wins will come down to luck. [07:28] Übel     I've always been unlucky,     so I don't like luck-based contests. [07:37] Übel     So I have no desire to fight myself. [07:41] Übel     You must really want to die. [07:55] Übel     My luck always sucks. [07:57] Übel     That's why I didn't want to do this. [08:01] Übel     But... [08:03] Übel     It looks like your luck was worse. [08:08] Übel     You were quicker than I expected, four-eyes. [08:21] Übel     Huh. So the bottle was fake, too. [08:35] Land     Übel, you knew that it was a clone     of me that was dying. [08:40] Land     Why did you rush to your death? [08:43] Übel     Because I knew you'd come for me. [08:47] Land     Do I seem that kind to you? [08:51] Übel     No, not at all. Not that it matters. [08:57] Übel     You didn't accept my bottle. [09:05] Übel     You don't want anyone to die     because of you, right? [09:09] Übel     So I created a situation where     my death would be your fault. [09:17] Übel     Thanks, four-eyes. [09:20] Übel     I think I learned something else about you. [09:23] Land     I see. Good for you. [09:26] Land     Are you able to empathize with me yet? [09:30] Übel     It'll take a little longer. [09:38] Frieren     I think we're pretty close to the bottom. [09:44] Fern     Ms. Frieren, there are stairs over there. [09:50] Frieren     Fern, let me see the map. [09:55] Fern     I believe we've fully explored this floor. [10:10] Frieren     There's a hidden room behind this wall. [10:14] Frieren     There's probably treasure there. [10:17] Frieren     I've got a feeling there's a     rare grimoire hidden inside. [10:24] Fern     But we didn't come across anything     that looked like an entrance. [10:29] Frieren     You're right. [10:34] Frieren     But based on the structure,     I'm certain there's a room here. [11:31] Fern     Ms. Frieren, this is incredible. [11:42] Sense     It depicts the achievements     of the king buried here. [11:47] Sense     I've never seen such a well-preserved     mural of the Unified Dynasty era. [11:54] Sense     This is a valuable discovery. [11:59] Fern     It's magnificent. [12:15] Fern     Our progress has been unnaturally smooth. [12:19] Fern     Are we really going to pass     without incident? [12:23] Frieren     Maybe. [12:30] Frieren     What are you all doing here? [12:34] Denken     Structurally speaking, the bottom of this     labyrinth should be beyond this hall. [12:40] Frieren     And? [12:43] Denken     It's been half a day since that     thing took up position there. [12:53] Frieren     Huh. This is getting interesting. [12:56] Frieren     Now this is how conquering     a dungeon should be. [13:04] Frieren     A perfect replica, huh? [13:08] Frieren     That thing does seem to match my strength. [13:12] Denken     We can't reach the bottom without     doing something about that replica. [13:18] Denken     Any ideas? [13:21] Frieren     Well, if that's a perfect recreation     of me, then its weaknesses [13:28] Frieren     should be the same as the     flesh-and-blood version. [13:31] Richter     Either restraint magic or hypnosis magic     are best for defeating a stronger mage. [13:38] Frieren     I'm resistant to both, though. [13:41] Denken     But it may create a slight opening. [13:45] Denken     That would be enough for you to defeat it. [13:50] Denken     Methode. [13:52] Denken     You're good at that kind of thing. [13:55] Methode     I wouldn't say I'm good at it, exactly. [14:00] Methode     Excuse me. [14:09] Methode     This is interesting. [14:11] Methode     You're immune to restraint magic. [14:14] Frieren     Smells nice. [14:15] Methode     Normally it should work,     barring a large difference in mana. [14:20] Methode     Next, Ms. Frieren, could you     please look into my eyes? [14:28] Methode     Hypnosis magic won't work either. [14:33] Methode     I cannot penetrate     Ms. Frieren's mental defenses. [14:37] Methode     Oh, my. [14:39] Denken     You really are resistant to both. [14:43] Methode     However, while the construction of your     mental defenses is complex and solid, [14:47] Methode     it seems to be a rather old spell. [14:50] Methode     A specialist in hypnosis magic     may be able to exploit its vulnerabilities. [14:55] Denken     Do you know any among the test-takers? [15:02] Methode     Edel the second-class mage     may be able to do it. [15:06] Methode     But unlike me, she has no combat abilities. [15:10] Methode     Honestly, I'm not sure she'd     be able to make it this far. [15:16] Methode     Also, hypnosis magic only works     on targets that have minds. [15:22] Methode     It's unclear if the replicas     have recreated those. [15:28] Denken     We lack too much information. [15:35] Blei     Edel, what do you think that is? [15:43] Edel     Who knows? [15:45] Edel     But it's safe to assume it has all the     abilities of the first-class mage Sense. [15:52] Blei     Concealing our mana and hiding     can only get us so far. [15:56] Blei     We'll have to defeat it. [15:58] Edel     Do you think we can, Blei? [16:01] Edel     You and Dünste can't fight properly in     this dungeon, to say nothing of myself. [16:07] Dünste     Modern magic isn't suited     to dungeon combat, anyway. [16:12] Edel     An unwelcome side effect of most dungeons     having already been cleared [16:15] Edel     during the era leading up to     the Demon King's defeat. [16:20] Edel     On top of that, powerful defensive     spells take up too many resources, [16:24] Edel     so most attack spells use natural objects. [16:29] Edel     Manipulating and transforming     objects already in the area [16:36] Edel     consumes less mana than     creating objects out of nothing. [16:41] Edel     But that thing does it fairly well. [16:46] Edel     There are layers of magic cast on its hair. [16:50] Edel     It probably has numerous methods     it could use to fight inside this dungeon. [17:00] Edel     As I see it, we can't beat that thing. [17:03] Edel     Magic is a world of visual imagination. [17:06] Edel     To be able to manipulate the uncountably     large number of threads we call hair, [17:13] Edel     it must possess a superhuman imagination, [17:18] Edel     making it a far greater mage than any of us. [17:23] Edel     Honestly, it's a miracle we managed     to evade it for this long. [17:29] Edel     We did our best. [17:32] Edel     But we're not fighters.     It's time for us to give up. [17:38] Edel     Honestly, I'm scared and want to go home. [17:42] Blei     Edel, does your voice not work on it? [17:47] Edel     Hypnosis magic is indeed my family's calling, [17:51] Edel     but it's impossible to meet the conditions     needed to give it sophisticated commands. [17:57] Edel     At most, I could create an opening     by making it kneel. [18:02] Edel     Even then, I'd have to make eye contact     with it and speak to it. [18:06] Blei     So it's not impossible. [18:09] Edel     Assuming it has a mind. [18:12] Dünste     How much time do you need? [18:15] Edel     Fifteen seconds. Or rather,     I doubt we'll get more. [18:20] Blei     What do you mean? [18:27] Edel     You'll see. [18:42] Edel     Activate your defensive magic     with full coverage. [18:44] Blei     What? [18:46] Edel     In modern magic, there are two ways     to defeat defensive magic. [18:51] Edel     Hit it hard enough,     or skillfully slip through it. [18:58] Edel     Most who use a high number     of attacks are the latter. [19:03] Edel     I'm surprised. [19:05] Edel     I wasn't expecting both. [19:07] Edel     They have the weight of a boulder. [19:12] Edel     I thought we'd be able to maintain our     defenses at full coverage for fifteen seconds, [19:17] Edel     not that it would break through     even before that. [19:22] Edel     But we made eye contact. [19:25] Edel     The better the mage, the more     closely they watch their opponent. [19:29] Edel     Kneel! [19:38] Edel     I see. I understand now. [19:42] Edel     It has no mind. [19:45] Edel     It's just precisely mimicking     the functions of one. [19:50] Edel     We can't beat it. [19:55] Edel     You'll have to borrow     the strength of another. [19:58] Edel     Run as quickly as you can to the fighters. [20:02] Edel     But as I said, it's time for me     to give up. I'm leaving. [20:05] Edel     I'm not interested in getting hurt again. [20:12] Edel     How convenient. It even ensures my safety. [20:21] Blei     We should run, too. [20:24] Dünste     Is there anyone who can     safely reach the bottom? [20:29] Blei     I told you. [20:31] Blei     She never intended for anyone     to pass from the start.

[21:48] Wirbel     Ehre crushes me or Scharf     in a simple clash of mana. [22:05] Wirbel     But I know how to win. [22:18] Wirbel     No matter the opponent or situation. [22:27] Denken     Brute force, huh? [22:31] Fern     In that case, [22:35] Fern     I may be able to kill Ms. Frieren. [22:41] Frieren     Oh? [22:43] Fern     Yes. [22:45] Frieren     Well, then...

[00:41] Frieren     Well, then... [00:42] Frieren     Let's come up with a strategy. [00:54] [SONG] Op Lyrics     You're there like the wind [00:58] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Closing your eyes at sunset [01:02] [SONG] Op Lyrics     I wonder what's on your mind SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [01:13] [SONG] Op Lyrics     With your eyelids open [01:17] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Your eyes shone like glass [01:21] [SONG] Op Lyrics     It faintly smelled like a sunny day [01:34] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Clear up the sky, let flowers bloom [01:39] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Bloom and blame it on the sunny sky [01:43] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Even the rain, when it stops [01:48] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Will make you shine in the sunlight [01:53] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Calm the stirring sounds in my heart [01:58] [SONG] Op Lyrics     We go like the sunny wind [02:02] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Go on and fly over that cloud [02:06] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Further and further away SIGN    Episode 25: A Fatal Vulnerability [02:20] Frieren     To confirm: if the replica has a mind, [02:25] Frieren     we'll use Edel's hypnosis magic     to penetrate my mental defenses, [02:30] Frieren     and Fern will kill me. [02:33] Fern     Yes. [02:33] Laufen     "Yes"? [02:39] Methode     Mr. Dünste. [02:48] Methode     Where is Ms. Edel? [02:51] Dünste     She dropped out when we were     attacked by Sense's replica. [02:57] Methode     I see. Mr. Blei as well? [03:03] Dünste     I was able to escape because he kept it busy. [03:07] Dünste     I hope he made it out safely. [03:19] Blei     Leave me! Go! [03:26] Dünste     B-But... [03:28] Blei     It's better than neither of us passing. [03:37] Dünste     I have information. [03:39] Dünste     Why don't we work together? [03:42] Denken     That was my intention from the start. [03:47] Denken     Is there anyone who can treat this man? [03:51] Methode     I have a holy scripture.     I can cast simple healing spells. [03:56] Denken     Please. [04:04] Frieren     I see. [04:05] Frieren     The replicas don't have minds. [04:08] Dünste     No. According to Ms. Edel, [04:11] Dünste     they merely imitate the     functions of a mind precisely [04:15] Dünste     without actually having one. [04:18] Frieren     Well, there goes the easy way     of taking one down. [04:22] Frieren     We'll have to plan accordingly. [04:26] Denken     But, Frieren, there's still     too much that we don't know. [04:32] Denken     The biggest question is: what are those     replicas, and who created them? [04:38] Denken     We can hardly take them on     without knowing their nature. [04:42] Richter     In particular, we need to know whether     or not the replicas themselves [04:45] Richter     have any unique weaknesses. [04:47] Richter     If that replica really is as strong as you,     then we'd likely suffer casualties. [04:54] Sense     I won't answer that question. [04:56] Richter     Didn't think you would. [04:58] Lawine     They don't have any weaknesses. [05:01] Lawine     The replicas are being controlled [05:04] Lawine     by a monster from the mythical era     known as the Spiegel. [05:07] Frieren     Lawine. [05:09] Denken     How do you know that? [05:11] Lawine     My oldest brother was in the advance party     that the Continental Magic Association [05:15] Lawine     sent into the Tomb of the Ruined King. [05:19] Richter     So you had information.     No wonder you made it this far. [05:26] Richter     But you made an irrational choice. [05:30] Richter     You should've shared your information     and worked with us from the start. [05:35] Lawine     It didn't feel like we could've at the time. [05:39] Kanne     And Frieren and Fern left before we knew it. [05:43] Lawine     Besides, old man, [05:44] Lawine     you're the type to mercilessly abandon     your allies unless there are rules against it. [05:50] Lawine     Anyone would think twice     about working with you. [05:52] Denken     She really doesn't like you. [05:55] Richter     It's true that I'm old, [05:58] Richter     but there's something that stings     about having it said to my face. [06:02] Kanne     Maybe you should apologize. [06:04] Lawine     Sorry, old man. [06:09] Lawine     According to the advance party's     observation report, [06:11] Lawine     the Spiegel is in the treasure room     on the other side of that door. [06:17] Lawine     The monster itself is weak     and has no way of attacking directly. [06:23] Lawine     Once we defeat it,     all the replicas will disappear. [06:27] Denken     That matches what our mana detection revealed. [06:32] Denken     The monster is on the other side of the door, [06:35] Denken     but it's shut fast with a     powerful sealing spell. [06:40] Frieren     I've confirmed that as well.     My replica must've done it. [06:46] Frieren     It's a spell that shuts the door of a     treasure vault at the risk of your life. [06:51] Frieren     Even among folk magic,     it's a top-class sealing spell. [06:55] Frieren     That door won't open     until the caster is dead. [07:00] Frieren     We could ignore the door     and break through a wall, [07:04] Frieren     but they've probably already     accounted for that. [07:08] Denken     Either way, we'll have to defeat that replica     if we want to take down the Spiegel. [07:17] Lawine     If we want to take it down,     then we'd better hurry. [07:20] Denken     What do you mean? [07:21] Lawine     The Spiegel creates replicas     of everyone within the dungeon. [07:27] Lawine     Over time, the replicas begin to gather     at the bottom of the dungeon. [07:35] Lawine     Aside from my brother's unit, most members     of the advance party died... [07:43] Lawine     right here, just before the bottom. [07:54] Denken     I see. [07:56] Fern     Excuse me. [07:58] Fern     The replicas precisely imitate the     functions of a mind, don't they? [08:02] Fern     In that case, any vulnerabilities     in their behavioral patterns [08:05] Fern     would be the same as the original's, right? [08:08] Dünste     Probably. [08:11] Fern     In that case, we may have a chance. [08:15] Frieren     What vulnerability are you thinking of? [08:21] Fern     Ms. Frieren, could you go stand by that wall? [08:26] Frieren     Okay. [08:46] Methode     Was that…? [08:48] Denken     Incredible. I don't believe it. [08:52] Fern     Did you notice? [08:54] Kanne     Did you? [08:56] Lawine     Nope. [08:57] Denken     This is Frieren's fatal vulnerability. [09:02] Denken     Why didn't I notice when I fought her? [09:06] Denken     No, I couldn't notice because of my     preconceptions about experienced mages. [09:13] Denken     When casting a spell, she stops     detecting mana for a brief moment. [09:19] Laufen     Isn't that a common mistake     made by apprentice mages? [09:23] Frieren     I've never been very good about it. [09:26] Fern     If you're aware of it,     then why didn't you say anything? [09:30] Frieren     Because it's embarrassing. [09:32] Fern     This is hardly the time to be saying that. [09:35] Richter     But she's far too skilled in all other areas. [09:40] Richter     I can't imagine there are many mages     who could exploit that vulnerability. [09:45] Fern     In any case, let's discuss our strategy. [10:10] Richter     Supposing we can handle Frieren's replica,     what about the others? [10:13] Laufen     Won't they all disappear     if we defeat the Spiegel? [10:13] Fern     Ms. Frieren, you seem to be having fun. [10:15] Denken     The replicas will probably     gather before then. [10:17] Frieren     Yeah. [10:27] (Flashback) Himmel     Sounds like we've got a plan. [10:29] (Flashback) Himmel     Eisen will draw the enemy to him,     and I'll attack from the flank. [10:35] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, you'll provide supporting fire. [10:37] (Flashback) Frieren     What about Heiter? [10:38] (Flashback) Himmel     Today's an off day for him. He's hungover. [10:42] (Flashback) Eisen     He's dead. [11:03] Frieren     I was just thinking about     all the times we discussed [11:06] Frieren     how we'd beat the dungeon boss like this. [11:31] Frieren     Okay. [11:32] Frieren     Let's begin the attack. [11:36] Denken     Can we win? [11:38] Frieren     Don't worry. There isn't a dungeon     that can't be conquered. [11:43] Frieren     I'm the mage of the party that cleared     the most dungeons in history. [11:53] Denken     Are you two sure you don't need any help     fighting Frieren's replica? [12:00] Frieren     The fewer of us there are, the easier     it will be to predict its movements. [12:05] Frieren     We'd almost certainly win if we all fought,     but most of us would probably die. [12:13] Frieren     I doubt we'd even have the time     to use our escape golems. [12:17] Richter     So slowing down the replicas gathering     at the bottom is more important. [12:29] Frieren     If they surround us, we're all dead. [12:34] Frieren     Follow the plan. [12:36] Denken     Got it. Good luck. [12:42] Frieren     Open the door. [13:03] Denken     Now, then. [13:05] Denken     Let's discuss our weakest matchups. [13:35] Frieren     Judradjim. [13:41] Fern     It's behaving just like Ms. Frieren predicted. [14:01] Frieren     Vollzanbel. [14:04] Frieren     I stopped detecting mana. [14:07] Frieren     I'll be wary of Fern,     who used that opportunity to hide. [14:12] Frieren     But I'll be busy dealing with     the equally-matched opponent in front of me. [14:16] Frieren     I won't have time to look for Fern. [14:20] Frieren     After all, no one knows better than I do     how frightening I can be. [14:30] Frieren     You'll be all right. [14:32] Frieren     Not even I can easily detect you     when you're completely hidden. [14:37] Fern     Are you sure I should use     Zoltraak to attack, though? [14:43] Frieren     It's the quickest spell there is. [14:47] Frieren     Besides, Zoltraak is a relatively     new spell for elves. [14:52] Frieren     Not enough time has passed for us     to reflexively defend against it. [14:58] Frieren     It takes only a moment     for us to respond to it, [15:03] Frieren     but the time we spend thinking     about it causes a delay. [15:07] Frieren     You're different, though. [15:10] Frieren     Zoltraak has existed since your birth.     To you, it's nothing special. [15:15] Frieren     It's a fundamental mage spell     engraved into your being. [15:21] Frieren     Your Zoltraak can kill me. [15:25] Frieren     Hit it with all the mana you've got. [15:45] (Flashback) Serie     Frieren, I thought you didn't like me. [15:50] (Flashback) Serie     Why have you come to see me? [15:53] (Flashback) Serie     Honestly, I thought we'd never meet again. [15:58] (Flashback) Frieren     I came to deliver my master's will. [16:03] (Flashback) Serie     It's been fifty years. [16:06] (Flashback) Serie     I see. So Flamme has died. [16:10] (Flashback) Frieren     You're not sad? [16:12] (Flashback) Serie     I only trained her on a whim. [16:21] (Flashback) Serie     It's practically a report. [16:23] (Flashback) Frieren     What does it say? [16:26] (Flashback) Serie     The emperor has authorized     magical research nationwide. [16:32] (Flashback) Serie     Until now, human societies have considered     magic to be a technique used by demons, [16:37] (Flashback) Serie     and openly studying it was forbidden. [16:42] (Flashback) Serie     Flamme encouraged him to allow it [16:44] (Flashback) Serie     and had been training the newly     established imperial mages. [16:51] (Flashback) Serie     She wants me to take over for her. [16:56] (Flashback) Serie     Such greed. [17:00] (Flashback) Serie     Receiving authorization to study magic     is a feat on its own, but she wants more. [17:07] (Flashback) Frieren     Is that such an impressive achievement? [17:10] (Flashback) Serie     The continent's largest united empire     is set to begin studying magic [17:14] (Flashback) Serie     and adopting it for military use. [17:17] (Flashback) Serie     The neighboring nations are sure to respond. [17:20] (Flashback) Serie     In just a few decades, magic will     spread throughout the continent. [17:25] (Flashback) Serie     We'll enter an era in which     all of humanity can use magic. [17:30] (Flashback) Serie     In the near future, [17:33] (Flashback) Serie     humanity will acquire the strength to fight     back against the Demon King's forces. [17:37] (Flashback) Frieren     I see. That's incredible. [17:41] (Flashback) Serie     Indeed it is. [17:45] (Flashback) Serie     But that's not what I want. [17:50] (Flashback) Serie     Leave, Frieren. [17:53] (Flashback) Serie     I can't comply with this final request. [17:56] (Flashback) Serie     I find it truly displeasing. [18:00] (Flashback) Serie     An era in which anyone can use magic? [18:03] (Flashback) Serie     Magic should be special. [18:06] (Flashback) Serie     I won't teach anyone who lacks talent. [18:10] (Flashback) Serie     How dare she send this to me? [18:13] (Flashback) Serie     Flamme and I remained unable to understand     each other until the very end. [18:17] (Flashback) Serie     She was only ever a student     I trained on a whim. [18:20] (Flashback) Frieren     My master said you'd probably     get upset and tear up her will. [18:29] (Flashback) Frieren     But she wanted to tell you her dream     had come true regardless. [18:35] (Flashback) Frieren     It doesn't make sense, does it? [18:41] (Flashback) Frieren     Well, I'm leaving now. [18:43] (Flashback) Frieren     I doubt we'll meet again. [18:46] (Flashback) Serie     Frieren. [18:49] (Flashback) Serie     Before you go, walk with me a little. [18:52] (Flashback) Serie     After all, we have all the time in the world. [18:59] (Flashback) Serie     An era in which anyone could use magic     was Flamme's dream. [19:05] (Flashback) Serie     I doubt she cared about helping humanity [19:09] (Flashback) Serie     or the strength to fight the     Demon King's forces at first. [19:20] (Flashback) Serie     Do you know what her favorite spell was? [19:24] (Flashback) Serie     A spell to create a field of flowers. [19:27] (Flashback) Serie     A useless, foolish spell. [19:36] (Flashback) Serie     She truly loved magic. [19:39] (Flashback) Serie     She genuinely wished for everyone in the     world to be able to cast spells like that. [19:46] (Flashback) Serie     It disgusted me. [19:49] (Flashback) Serie     It was the fanciful dream of a girl,     but it's what she really wanted. [19:57] (Flashback) Serie     She told me about this dream of hers     when she was a child much shorter than me. [20:05] (Flashback) Serie     Honestly, I thought that era     wouldn't arrive for many more years. [20:10] (Flashback) Serie     I didn't think she could accomplish it. [20:16] (Flashback) Serie     To me, her life was so short     as to be practically nothing, [20:22] (Flashback) Serie     and yet she became the founder     of humanity's magic. [20:25] (Flashback) Frieren     My master was always quick to decide. [20:29] (Flashback) Frieren     It felt like she was in a hurry. [20:34] (Flashback) Serie     Humans have limited lifespans. [20:36] (Flashback) Serie     They exist much closer to death than we do. [20:41] (Flashback) Serie     We must all make important decisions     at several points in our lives, [20:46] (Flashback) Serie     but humans cannot afford to delay them. [20:52] (Flashback) Serie     We can afford to wait a century or two. [20:56] (Flashback) Serie     Even ignoring them for a millennium     poses no obstacle, [21:02] (Flashback) Serie     as our time is closer to an eternity. [21:08] (Flashback) Serie     Frieren, many years have passed     since humanity created [21:13] (Flashback) Serie     what could be called a civilization. [21:16] (Flashback) Serie     From now on, their progress     will begin to accelerate. [21:22] (Flashback) Serie     A mere thousand years. [21:26] (Flashback) Serie     In a mere thousand years,     the era of humans will arrive. [21:34] (Flashback) Serie     The humans will overtake us. [21:43] (Flashback) Serie     Do not neglect your training, Frieren. [21:58] (Flashback) Serie     If anyone kills you,     it will be either the Demon King… [22:05] (Flashback) Serie     or a human mage. [22:11] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm looking forward to it, Serie. [22:16] (Flashback) Frieren     We're going to see so many     different kinds of mages and spells.

[03:20] Richter     Try not to hold me back. [03:22] Lawine     I could say the same thing. [03:27] (Flashback) Denken     Methode has determined the     exact locations of the enemy. [03:32] (Flashback) Denken     We can't beat them in a     disorganized free-for-all. [03:35] (Flashback) Denken     So we'll split up and stop the replicas     before they gather here. [03:41] (Flashback) Denken     We told each other our weakest matchups. [03:44] (Flashback) Denken     Your own weakest matchup     is your replica's as well. [03:50] (Flashback) Denken     Our advantage is that we can     communicate and work together. [03:59] (Flashback) Denken     As long as we choose the right opponents, [04:03] (Flashback) Denken     we'll have the upper hand. [04:15] (Flashback) Denken     Use numbers to deal with anyone     we can't fight alone. [04:37] Laufen     It's funny how easy this is. [04:47] Lawine     If we do this, we can stop the replicas. [04:58] (Flashback) Frieren     Follow the plan. [05:00] (Flashback) Denken     Got it. Good luck. [05:05] (Flashback) Methode     There's one concern. [05:07] (Flashback) Methode     I'm detecting fewer replicas than test-takers. [05:13] (Flashback) Methode     In particular, I can't find     Ms. Sense's replica, the greatest threat. [05:20] (Flashback) Frieren     You're right. I don't detect it either. [05:23] (Flashback) Frieren     We mustn't overlook Sense's replica. [05:26] (Flashback) Frieren     If she comes at us from behind,     I won't be able to protect Fern. [05:30] (Flashback) Frieren     Worst case, we could both die. [05:33] (Flashback) Methode     I haven't found Ms. Fern or     Mr. Denken's replicas either. [05:38] (Flashback) Methode     We'll have to search for them using     more precise close-range detection. [05:43] (Flashback) Richter     We wouldn't have had to worry     about this if you weren't here. [05:49] (Flashback) Sense     First-class mages must be able     to overcome unfair adversity. [05:56] (Flashback) Sense     And this doesn't even qualify as adversity. [06:00] (Flashback) Sense     Besides, you can pass the test by simply     watching your fellow test-takers' backs. [06:05] (Flashback) Sense     Is this not a truly kind and peaceful test? [06:17] Lawine     It's down, [06:19] Lawine     but I can't say I enjoyed that. [06:26] Richter     An ambush. [06:34] Richter     Damned monstrosity. [06:37] Richter     I don't recall neglecting     my mana detection. [06:42] Richter     Lawine, you should break your bottle, too. [06:46] Richter     You're old enough to know when to quit. [06:49] Richter     The test will be held again in three years. [06:53] Lawine     Damn it. [07:01] Denken     I didn't make it in time. [07:04] Denken     But my help wouldn't     have changed the outcome. [07:11] Denken     Even with its back turned,     I still don't detect any openings. [07:16] Denken     Either way, I must at least buy some time. [07:21] Übel     You're Denken the Imperial Mage, right? [07:26] Übel     What's going on here? [07:29] Übel     Are you planning to fight that thing? [07:32] Übel     I don't think you can beat it. [07:34] Denken     I know. [07:37] Übel     Denken, do we have to do this     to conquer the dungeon? [07:42] Denken     Frieren is currently— [07:44] Übel     I didn't ask for an explanation.     Is this necessary? [07:50] Denken     Yes. [07:53] Übel     Then I'll defeat it. [07:55] Land     What are you talking about?     Denken is the strongest one here. [08:00] Land     You couldn't even beat Wirbel. [08:03] Übel     Yeah, that's not how this works. [08:07] Übel     It's true that I'm an inexperienced     third-class mage. [08:11] Übel     I'm far weaker than Denken or Wirbel. [08:15] Übel     But I think I can beat Sense. [08:19] Übel     This is my specialty. [08:23] Übel     Reelseiden, a spell that     cuts almost anything. [08:26] Übel     It cuts anything I think it can,     and it can't cut anything I think it can't. [08:33] Land     So what? That spell is easily     blocked by defensive magic. [08:39] Übel     Oh, right. You watched my battle     against Wirbel, didn't you, four-eyes? [08:44] Übel     Yeah, defensive magic is for blocking spells. [08:49] Übel     It's hard for me to imagine cutting it. [08:52] Land     I see. Then either way,     it won't work against Sense. [08:57] Land     Based only on what we can observe, [09:00] Land     that hair has multiple layers of spells     equal to defensive magic cast on it. [09:04] Übel     I told you, that sort of logic doesn't matter. [09:07] Übel     I'm talking about what I can visualize. [09:11] Land     Hey, wait. [09:15] Übel     Huh. [09:17] Übel     Figures. Sorganeil doesn't work. [09:21] Übel     Well, a person's hair is part of their body. [09:24] Übel     It's impossible to see all of her at once. [09:29] Übel     Reelseiden. [09:32] Sense     As I thought, Übel is fighting my replica. [09:37] Sense     I already know who will win. [09:39] Sense     It won't even be a real fight. [09:43] Sense     It happened two years ago,     during the second-class mage exam. [09:48] Sense     Burg, a first-class mage,     proctored the second test. [09:54] Sense     He was so skilled in defensive magic [09:57] Sense     that he hadn't been injured once     since becoming a first-class mage. [10:04] Sense     “Immovable Cloak.” [10:06] Sense     The cloak he created using mana [10:08] Sense     was imbued with so many defensive spells     that no magical attack could penetrate it. [10:15] Sense     For the second test, the test-takers fired     offensive magic against Burg and his cloak. [10:22] Sense     It was a simple test. If they could make him     take just one step back, they passed. [10:26] Sense     Killing would result in disqualification, [10:29] Sense     and limits were imposed on offensive     magic to protect the other test-takers. [10:36] (Flashback) Burg     Next. [10:42] Sense     No one was worried about Burg. [10:55] (Flashback) Übel     Oh, I cut too deep. [11:01] Sense     But he was easily killed [11:03] Sense     by a no-name girl who'd just recently     become a third-class mage. [11:11] (Flashback) Übel     This means I fail, right? [11:13] (Flashback) Übel     I get it. Can I leave now? [11:17] (Flashback) Sense     I have just one question for you. [11:20] (Flashback) Übel     Go ahead. [11:21] (Flashback) Sense     How did you defeat his Immovable Cloak? [11:27] (Flashback) Übel     Have you ever sewn before, Sense? [11:32] (Flashback) Sense     No. Why do you ask? [11:34] (Flashback) Übel     You do seem like you come     from a rich family. [11:37] (Flashback) Übel     Or do you use magic to handle all that stuff? [11:42] (Flashback) Übel     I've actually never tried it myself,     since I'm so clumsy. [11:52] (Flashback) Übel     But I used to watch my sister     sew all the time. [11:59] (Flashback) Übel     When you cut cloth, you place the scissors     against it like this and slide them through. [12:08] (Flashback) Übel     It makes a really nice sound. [12:14] (Flashback) Übel     I liked that sound. [12:18] (Flashback) Sense     I don't see where you're going with this. [12:20] (Flashback) Übel     I'm talking about visual imagination. [12:22] (Flashback) Übel     Cloth can be cut.     You expect to be able to cut it. [12:30] Sense     She's out of her mind. [12:33] Sense     It's true that anyone can     imagine cutting cloth. [12:36] Sense     Even an idiot can do that. [12:39] Sense     But the world of magic isn't so simple. [12:44] Sense     Magic can't create anything     the caster can't visualize perfectly, [12:50] Sense     just as a diminutive ant can't imagine     crushing a colossal dragon underfoot. [12:55] Sense     Hardly any mages can imagine     penetrating that cloak [13:00] Sense     and its impregnable magical defenses. [13:03] Sense     Any mage can tell at a glance that     that cloak blocks all magical attacks. [13:11] Sense     Truly, any idiot can see that. [13:15] Sense     As long as people are intelligent organisms,     we cannot escape those fetters. [13:22] Sense     But she trusted her own intuition instead. [13:27] Sense     Despite understanding intellectually     that it couldn't be cut, [13:31] Sense     she constructed a vision of cutting     through the cloak according to her intuition. [13:36] Sense     Her mind must not function like a person's. [13:41] Sense     It's practically a superpower. [13:45] (Flashback) Übel     Can I go now? [13:47] (Flashback) Sense     Yes. [13:50] (Flashback) Übel     By the way, Sense, that's some pretty hair. [13:54] (Flashback) Übel     It must be tough to maintain. [14:00] Sense     Perhaps I had already lost to her then. [14:05] Sense     I can't imagine beating Übel. [14:08] Sense     She's that bad a matchup for me. [14:17] Übel     You all think too hard.     Hair is something to be cut. [14:24] (Flashback) Sense     Maintaining my hair? [14:26] (Flashback) Sense     It's hell. [14:28] (Flashback) Sense     I don't even want to think about it. [14:33] Übel     Then you should cut it. [14:38] Wirbel     I've got the picture. [14:40] Wirbel     So you're buying time until     Frieren defeats the Spiegel. [14:46] Methode     Yes, that's right. [14:48] Scharf     We defeated three of the replicas. [14:51] Methode     That will make things easier. [14:54] Methode     In that case… Oh, my. [14:57] Methode     Ms. Sense's replica was just destroyed. [15:01] Methode     This mana… [15:04] Methode     It was the third-class mage Übel     who defeated it. [15:07] Scharf     That's surprising. [15:09] Wirbel     Is it? She was a pretty bad matchup for it. [15:13] Methode     Battles between mages     are like rock-paper-scissors. [15:18] Methode     However, it is a complex and difficult game     of rock-paper-scissors with infinite options. [15:24] Wirbel     And you want as many options as possible, huh? [15:30] Wirbel     Sure. We'll help you slow down the replicas. [15:35] Wirbel     I don't make a habit of trusting others, [15:38] Wirbel     but I'm not dumb enough to let a winning     horse go when it's right in front of me. [15:43] Methode     Currently, there are two     dangerous replicas we must stop. [15:49] Methode     I've determined the location of     one of them: Mr. Denken's replica. [15:55] Methode     I'd like you to handle that one. [15:59] Methode     Allow me to handle the other:     Ms. Fern's replica. [16:05] Methode     She's particularly skilled     at concealing her mana. [16:09] Methode     Unless we find her replica,     it could ambush and kill someone. [16:14] Ehre     Can you really handle it alone? [16:16] Methode     Working alone will allow me to     focus better on mana detection. [16:20] Ehre     She's pretty strong, you know. [16:23] Methode     I have many talents. [16:24] Methode     When it comes to simply stopping     someone, I'm quite skilled. [16:29] Methode     Besides, I confirmed with the actual Ms. Fern     that my binding magic would work on her. [16:31] Methode     Take this. [16:32] Fern     I can't move. [16:36] Wirbel     All right. Let's go fight this thing. [16:42] Land     Übel, I'm not imagining this, am I? [16:47] Übel     Probably not. [16:49] Übel     After all, you can't move, can you? [16:55] Übel     My replica is back in action. [17:05] Übel     Will this keep going until     that Spiegel thing is defeated? [17:10] Übel     It's a battle of attrition.     This is getting fun. [17:14] Denken     I couldn't agree more. [17:17] Land     Isn't it time for us to get out of here? [17:57] Frieren     This opening won't do either. [18:00] Frieren     Fern wouldn't notice it. [18:05] Frieren     I'll have to do it after all. [18:08] (Flashback) Frieren     The vulnerability in my mana detection     isn't enough to kill me. [18:13] (Flashback) Fern     You're right. [18:15] (Flashback) Fern     We could win with a bigger opening, though. [18:18] (Flashback) Frieren     You can win, right? [18:21] (Flashback) Frieren     Then I'll create an opening. [18:24] (Flashback) Fern     Is that possible? [18:26] (Flashback) Frieren     If I show an opening, then the replica     will show an even greater one. [18:32] (Flashback) Fern     But that would mean you… [18:34] (Flashback) Frieren     If I focus on defense, it won't be fatal. [18:39] (Flashback) Fern     Then what strategy should we use? [18:46] (Flashback) Frieren     It's up to you. If you think     we can win, then we can. [18:50] (Flashback) Fern     How can you be so sure? [18:53] (Flashback) Frieren     Because I underestimate you. [19:02] (Flashback) Fern     I'm glad to hear that. [19:04] (Flashback) Fern     That means we have a decent shot at winning. [20:01] Fern     It's still standing, but that's a fatal wound. [20:06] Fern     I should finish it— [20:15] Fern     What happened? Was I attacked? [20:19] Fern     I don't sense any mana. [20:21] Fern     I'm not recognizing this attack as a spell. [20:27] Fern     Incredible, Ms. Frieren. [20:30] Fern     So this is the height of magic. [20:34] Fern     But this isn't like you. [20:39] Fern     You've left yourself wide open. [20:51] Frieren     Well done, Fern. [20:54] Frieren     It's been about eighty years     since I was last forced to use that. [21:12] Frieren     Now, let's end this. [21:26] Methode     So it's over. [21:29] Ehre     I can't move another millimeter. [21:32] Scharf     Wirbel, carry me. [21:35] Wirbel     You guys just can't stay on your feet, huh? [21:47] Denken     So this is the bottom of the     Ruins of the King's Tomb. [21:52] Sense     You've conquered the     Ruins of the King's Tomb. [21:56] Sense     Such a notable achievement makes you     worthy of becoming first-class mages. [22:03] Sense     As promised, everyone who made it here     has passed the second test. [22:11] Denken     So, where are the ladies of the hour? [22:18] Frieren     It's dark and scary in here! [22:23] Frieren     It's dark! It's scary! [22:25] Laufen     I guess I understand that feeling. [22:26] Frieren     Dark! Scary! [22:30] Sense     The second test is now over. [22:36] Ehre     It can even use healing magic. [22:40] Ehre     Impressive, right? [22:42] Richter     Uh, yeah. [22:47] Richter     Who are you? [22:50] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     And I'm alright (I'll be alright) [22:53] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Yeah, I hear you (I care about you) [22:56] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     The wind teases this hair that's longer now [23:01] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     There's meaning in everything [23:04] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Even the days that came to a halt [23:07] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Now that I finally understand,     I've caught up to you [23:13] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     See, things that couldn't have been [23:17] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Seen if it weren't for these eyes [23:20] [SONG] Ed Lyrics     Why?

[24:23] Kanne     You're in really rough shape. [24:24] Falsch     The third test will now begin. [24:25] Stark     Fern, let's head back. [24:25] Lawine     Just make fun of me like you always do.

[02:02] Stark     Again? You've been arguing a lot recently,     don't you think? [02:06] Stark     Isn't the third test the final one? [02:10] Stark     This is hardly the time to be squabbling. [02:12] Fern     She was truly awful this time. [02:14] Fern     My staff broke in battle     in the Ruins of the King's Tomb, [02:19] Fern     so I told Ms. Frieren     I wanted to get it repaired. [02:23] Fern     She told me it'd be better to buy     a new staff than to repair my old one. [02:28] Stark     You mean that staff, don't you? [02:30] Stark     She said it couldn't be repaired     since it was already in pieces. [02:36] Fern     Still, Mr. Heiter gave me that staff. [02:42] Fern     It's been with me ever since I was little. [02:46] Stark     We're talking about Frieren, though.     I doubt she meant any harm. [02:50] Fern     At the very least, I never even     would have thought of throwing it away. [02:59] Kanne     Three years until the next     first-class mage exam, huh? [03:02] Kanne     Three years is a long time. [03:05] Lawine     Just make fun of me like you always do. [03:09] Kanne     Do you want me to? [03:12] Lawine     No. [03:15] Kanne     In that case, Little Miss Lawine,     shall I pat your head? [03:22] Kanne     What? You wanna fight? [03:27] Lawine     Hurry up. [03:30] Kanne     You're in really rough shape. [03:34] Kanne     Hey, it's Frieren. [03:45] Kanne     What's with the bag? [03:48] Richter     Hey, how long are you going     to hang around here? [03:52] Richter     I failed the test. There's nothing     keeping us together anymore. [03:56] Richter     You're interfering with my business.     Get out of here. [03:59] Denken     I'm here as a customer. [04:03] Richter     Then hurry up and choose something. [04:10] Laufen     You can have some. [04:11] Richter     I don't want any. [04:13] Denken     You were unlucky this time. [04:18] Denken     You got the short end of the stick. [04:20] Denken     It could've happened to     anyone in that position. [04:24] Richter     A loss is a loss. I wasn't strong enough. [04:29] Richter     Either way, don't bring that up again. [04:32] Richter     I may seem fine, but I'm actually     in a terrible mood right now. [04:35] Denken     But you opened your shop regardless. [04:40] Richter     Denken, you may not realize this, [04:44] Richter     but people have to work to make a living     no matter how foul their mood. [04:52] Denken     Is that right? [04:55] Richter     Maybe it's for the best     that I'm the one who failed. [04:59] Richter     The first-class mage exam     is held once every three years. [05:02] Richter     A decrepit old man like you might not     be around three years from now. [05:09] Denken     You're right. [05:11] Richter     Don't agree with me. [05:17] Denken     Richter, you truly are an insolent youngster. [05:22] Denken     You mock authority [05:24] Denken     and have no qualms about mistreating     the weak in order to achieve your goals. [05:28] Denken     Your behavior is hardly praiseworthy. [05:32] Denken     And yet I feel no hatred for you at all, [05:37] Denken     probably because I was once     an insolent youngster too. [05:44] Denken     And now, I'm an imperial mage. [05:49] Richter     What are you trying to say? [05:52] Denken     I'm telling you not to be so discouraged. [05:55] Denken     Three years from now, you'll be     far stronger than you are today. [06:01] Denken     Laufen, let's go. [06:06] Laufen     Sorry. The old man's not good with people. [06:09] Richter     What's your relationship with Denken, exactly? [06:14] Richter     Damn it, old man. [06:17] Richter     He didn't buy anything after all. [06:33] Richter     Is today my unlucky day or something? [06:35] Frieren     I asked around town and was told this shop     can fix any staff, no matter how broken. [06:44] Richter     Show me. [06:48] Richter     What is this broken pile of scrapwood?     Don't tell me this is meant to be a staff. [06:53] Richter     I'm not a trash disposal service, you know. [06:55] Frieren     It's not trash. [06:57] Frieren     Probably. [07:03] Richter     My mood was starting to improve,     but because of you, I feel terrible again. [07:10] Richter     I have the right to choose     which jobs I work on. [07:13] Richter     You should give up on this staff. [07:16] Frieren     I see. [07:19] Frieren     If you can't do it, then never mind. [07:23] Richter     Frieren, you really get on my nerves. [07:28] Richter     When did I say I couldn't do it? [07:38] Frieren     Can you finish today? [07:40] Frieren     I want it to be repaired     in time for the third test. [07:43] Richter     Don't be ridiculous. [07:50] Richter     Frieren. [07:51] Frieren     What? [07:52] Richter     I'm sorry for calling it trash. [07:56] Richter     It's a good, well-maintained staff. [07:59] Richter     Someone must've taken really good care of it. [08:07] Stark     Fern, let's head back already. [08:12] Fern     Ms. Frieren doesn't understand me at all. [08:15] Stark     I don't understand you either. [08:18] Stark     Stop! Don't take it out on me! [08:24] Stark     What matters is that she     tries to understand you. [08:28] Stark     I think Frieren is doing her best. [08:39] Richter     You're Frieren's kid. [08:43] Richter     Her student, right? [08:46] Richter     Am I wrong? [08:48] Stark     No, that's right. [08:51] Richter     Either way, the second test     only ended yesterday, [08:56] Richter     but I had another terrible day     because of your master. [09:01] Richter     I would've made more profit     if you'd just bought a new one. [09:07] Richter     Take good care of it. [09:24] Fern     My staff. [09:33] (Flashback) Heiter     Frieren struggles to understand emotions. [09:37] (Flashback) Heiter     I'm sure it will cause     difficulties and disagreements. [09:43] (Flashback) Heiter     But there is one good thing about it. [09:47] (Flashback) Heiter     Frieren will worry and care     about you just as much. [09:53] (Flashback) Heiter     Few masters are better than her. [10:31] Fern     Ms. Frieren, about yesterday… [10:36] Frieren     What? [10:39] Fern     Actually, never mind. [10:43] Frieren     I see. [10:47] Falsch     The third test will now begin. [10:54] (Flashback) Serie     Do you know why I came     all the way here, Sense? [11:03] (Flashback) Serie     Nothing to say, huh? [11:05] (Flashback) Serie     You always remain silent     in troublesome situations. [11:08] (Flashback) Serie     Twelve test-takers passed the second test. [11:12] (Flashback) Serie     It's an anomaly. It's too many. [11:16] (Flashback) Serie     I have no problem with a test that requires     all participants to work together, [11:20] (Flashback) Serie     as the current first-class mages     lack cooperativeness. [11:24] (Flashback) Falsch     Forgive us. [11:26] (Flashback) Serie     But there is one among the test-takers     who is far too powerful. [11:33] (Flashback) Lernen     You mean Ms. Frieren. [11:36] (Flashback) Serie     Because of her, many have passed     despite lacking the requisite strength. [11:41] (Flashback) Serie     A typical third test would kill all of them. [11:47] (Flashback) Serie     Sense, that's hardly what you want, [11:52] (Flashback) Serie     and not even I wish to see     such pointless deaths. [11:57] (Flashback) Sense     Ms. Serie. [11:59] (Flashback) Serie     There's no need to apologize.     It's all Frieren's fault. [12:04] (Flashback) Serie     An anomaly calls for an anomaly. [12:07] (Flashback) Serie     I will proctor the third test. [12:11] (Flashback) Serie     It will be a peaceful selection. [12:15] (Flashback) Serie     In past years, you've proctored the test. [12:18] (Flashback) Serie     You don't object, do you, Lernen? [12:22] (Flashback) Lernen     Your willfulness is nothing new, Ms. Serie. [12:28] (Flashback) Lernen     Besides, I could not     possibly test Ms. Frieren. [12:34] (Flashback) Lernen     I could tell at a glance that     she's suppressing her own mana. [12:41] (Flashback) Lernen     Her mana is tremendous, equal to yours. [12:50] (Flashback) Serie     Falsch, did you notice? [12:52] (Flashback) Falsch     No, I have no idea     what he's talking about. [12:55] (Flashback) Falsch     I observed her mana myself     at the testing area. [12:59] (Flashback) Falsch     It didn't seem to me like     she was suppressing it. [13:03] (Flashback) Falsch     I observed none of the typical fluctuations. [13:08] (Flashback) Falsch     No living creature with mana     can conceal these fluctuations. [13:13] (Flashback) Falsch     Even if it were possible, it would take     an extraordinary amount of time to master. [13:19] (Flashback) Falsch     It would hardly be a practical skill. [13:23] (Flashback) Serie     Frieren has devoted her life     to mastering that impractical skill [13:28] (Flashback) Serie     in order to deceive demons. [13:33] (Flashback) Serie     Demons are far more sensitive     to mana than us humanoids. [13:39] (Flashback) Serie     Without innate talent, it takes more than     a century or two of practice to fool them. [13:46] (Flashback) Serie     It truly is a waste of time. [13:49] (Flashback) Serie     You'd become far more powerful devoting     your efforts to training something else. [13:54] (Flashback) Serie     It's incredibly inefficient. [13:56] (Flashback) Serie     But that inefficiency     breeds weakness in others. [14:02] (Flashback) Serie     In a battle between experienced mages, [14:05] (Flashback) Serie     miscalculating your opponent's mana     can lead directly to death. [14:10] (Flashback) Serie     Frieren is in fact relatively     unskilled for her age, [14:15] (Flashback) Serie     and yet she's defeated demons. [14:18] (Flashback) Serie     Her mana control is simply that refined. [14:24] (Flashback) Serie     As far as I knew, only the Demon King     was able to see through it at first glance. [14:30] (Flashback) Serie     That is, until this moment, Lernen. [14:36] (Flashback) Lernen     It was a coincidence. I just happened     to see a minor fluctuation. [14:40] (Flashback) Lernen     That's all. [14:43] (Flashback) Serie     Ever modest and dependable. [14:47] (Flashback) Serie     It's been more than half a century since     you became the first first-class mage. [14:54] (Flashback) Serie     But you're still the same timid boy. [15:00] (Flashback) Serie     That's my only disappointment. [15:03] (Flashback) Serie     You've achieved this level, and yet     you don't have much longer to live. [15:10] (Flashback) Serie     I doubt you'll ever get the     chance to fight Frieren, [15:15] (Flashback) Serie     even if it's a battle you could win. [15:20] (Flashback) Serie     I shouldn't take on human students. [15:25] (Flashback) Serie     It's truly disappointing. [15:30] (Flashback) Serie     In the end, that boy never saw     the fluctuations in my mana either. [15:38] Falsch     The third test will be an interview     with Serie the Great Mage. [15:44] Frieren     So that's how it's going to be. [15:44] Falsch     You will be called one at a time     when she is ready for you. [15:46] Frieren     Serie intends to fail us both. [15:48] Falsch     Please wait here until then. [15:50] Fern     You know her? [15:52] Frieren     From a long time ago. [15:54] Frieren     She probably intends to choose who passes     based on her intuition. [15:57] Frieren     But Serie's intuition is always right. [16:01] Frieren     I still haven't become the mage     Serie wishes I were. [16:40] Kanne     Excuse me… [16:41] Serie     You fail. Now leave. [16:45] Kanne     May I ask why? [16:48] Serie     My mana frightens you.     You know the limits of your own abilities. [16:55] Serie     You can't imagine yourself     as a first-class mage, can you? [17:00] Serie     In the world of magic, that which     can't be visualized cannot be. [17:05] Serie     It's the most fundamental principle.     Now leave. [17:08] Serie     Fail. [17:10] Serie     Fail. [17:11] Serie     Fail. [17:12] Serie     Fail. [17:15] Serie     Frieren, you can't imagine yourself     as a first-class mage either, [17:22] Serie     but for a different reason     from the rest of the test-takers. [17:27] Serie     You don't believe I'd ever let you pass. [17:31] Frieren     It's true, isn't it? [17:33] Serie     I'll give you one chance.     Tell me your favorite spell. [17:38] Frieren     A spell to create a field of flowers. [17:43] Serie     That's the spell Flamme taught you. [17:46] Serie     How truly useless. [17:47] Serie     You fail. [17:50] Frieren     Uh-huh. [17:55] Serie     You won't even stand your ground     when I mock you? [17:59] Serie     I find it hard to believe a mage     like you defeated the Demon King. [18:07] Frieren     I didn't do it alone. [18:10] Frieren     Himmel, Eisen, Heiter, and me. [18:14] Frieren     If any one of us hadn't been there,     we couldn't have won. [18:18] Serie     So you were blessed with strong allies. [18:20] Serie     You were lucky. [18:23] Frieren     That's right. I was lucky. [18:28] (Flashback) Frieren     Himmel, why did you recruit me? [18:34] (Flashback) Himmel     Because I was looking for a powerful mage. [18:37] (Flashback) Frieren     There are plenty of powerful mages     in the royal capital. [18:40] (Flashback) Frieren     It didn't have to be me. [18:42] (Flashback) Himmel     I wanted you. [18:44] (Flashback) Frieren     Why? [18:47] (Flashback) Himmel     Frieren, you may not remember,     but I once met you a long time ago. [18:55] (Flashback) Frieren     Yeah, I don't remember that at all. [18:57] (Flashback) Himmel     I know you don't. [18:59] (Flashback) Himmel     When I was a child, I got lost     while gathering herbs in the forest. [19:05] (Flashback) Himmel     Wandering the woods for hours at night, [19:08] (Flashback) Himmel     I experienced loneliness     for the first time in my life. [19:12] (Flashback) Himmel     I thought I'd never be able     to return to my village. [19:18] (Flashback) Himmel     That was when a lone elf pointed me     in the direction of the village. [19:24] (Flashback) Himmel     All she did was show me which way it was.     She spoke not a word of encouragement. [19:30] (Flashback) Himmel     To the eyes of a child,     she seemed so cold-hearted. [19:35] (Flashback) Himmel     Perhaps she sensed my unease,     or perhaps it was on a whim... [19:46] (Flashback) Himmel     You showed me a spell     to create a field of flowers. [19:57] (Flashback) Himmel     I thought it was beautiful. [19:59] (Flashback) Himmel     For the first time in my life,     I thought magic was beautiful. [20:07] Frieren     It's probably just a coincidence, [20:11] Frieren     but it was that useless spell     my master taught me [20:14] Frieren     that brought me and my companions together. [20:20] Frieren     Also, Serie, I'm sure you intend     to fail Fern as well, [20:26] Frieren     but I doubt you'll be able to. [20:30] Frieren     She will exceed your expectations. [20:34] Frieren     The era of humans has arrived. [20:40] Serie     Exceed my expectations? Hardly. [20:42] Serie     The sight of my mana has her frozen in place. [20:46] Serie     She's no different from the other test-takers. [20:54] Serie     Wait. What do you see? [21:03] Fern     It's fluctuating. [21:09] Serie     Fern, was it? [21:11] Serie     Be my student. [21:15] Fern     What? No. [21:22] Serie     I'll treat you well. [21:25] Serie     I can take you to greater heights. [21:31] Serie     To heights no other mage has ever reached. [21:39] Fern     Does this affect whether or not I pass? [21:42] Serie     Perhaps. [21:47] Fern     I see. [21:51] Fern     Ms. Serie. [22:01] Frieren     Fern. [22:03] (Flashback) Frieren     I'm sure Serie will have     a lot of things to say to you, [22:06] (Flashback) Frieren     but there's no need for you     to accept her demands. [22:09] (Flashback) Frieren     Just as Serie will fail me     no matter what I say, [22:13] (Flashback) Frieren     she will pass you no matter what you say. [22:17] (Flashback) Frieren     After all, Serie's intuition is always right. [22:23] Fern     I am Ms. Frieren's student. [22:33] Serie     Frieren coached you, didn't she? [22:36] Serie     I'm not foolish enough     to overlook a promising mage. [22:42] Serie     You pass. [22:48] Serie     Next.

[00:23] [SONG] Op Lyrics     You're there like the wind [00:27] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Closing your eyes at sunset [00:31] [SONG] Op Lyrics     I wonder what's on your mind SIGN    Beyond Journey's End [00:41] [SONG] Op Lyrics     With your eyelids open [00:45] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Your eyes shone like glass [00:50] [SONG] Op Lyrics     It faintly smelled like a sunny day [01:03] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Clear up the sky, let flowers bloom [01:08] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Bloom and blame it on the sunny sky [01:12] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Even the rain, when it stops [01:17] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Will make you shine in the sunlight [01:22] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Calm the stirring sounds in my heart [01:27] [SONG] Op Lyrics     We go like the sunny wind [01:31] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Go on and fly over that cloud [01:35] [SONG] Op Lyrics     Further and further away [01:45] Serie     Denken the Imperial Mage.     I know all about you. [01:51] Denken     I'm honored. [01:54] Serie     A self-made military mage who rose to be     the most influential in the northern lands. [02:02] Serie     It's an oft-heard heroic tale. [02:05] Serie     Honestly, I wish I could've met you     when you were still young, [02:12] Serie     full of drive and ambition. [02:19] Serie     I have no interest in burnt-out ashes. [02:25] Serie     Or so I believed. [02:31] Denken     Do you feel differently now? [02:33] Serie     When you saw me, you thought about     how you'd fight me, didn't you? [02:41] Denken     Only for a moment.     I immediately abandoned the idea. [02:46] Serie     You pass. There's still a fire in you. [02:50] Serie     Normally it wouldn't even occur     to someone to fight me. [02:55] Serie     Next. [03:01] Serie     You pass. [03:02] Übel     What? But we haven't even spoken yet. [03:07] Serie     Do we need to? [03:10] Übel     I guess not. [03:12] Serie     Next. [03:17] Serie     Is this some kind of joke? [03:20] Land     What do you mean? [03:21] Serie     This is the first-class mage exam. [03:23] Serie     What kind of idiot never even sets foot     into the examination grounds? [03:28] Land     As you can see, my flesh-and-blood     body is here, too. [03:34] Land     I wouldn't want to be disqualified. [03:35] Serie     Throughout the exam period, your actual     body never left your hometown. [03:42] Serie     Are you enjoying some tea right now? [03:48] Land     I'm surprised. [03:50] Land     Not even Übel noticed. [03:53] Serie     You've got guts. You pass. [03:56] Serie     Next. [03:59] Serie     You're Wirbel, captain of     the Northern Magic Corps. [04:03] Serie     Of the second-class mages I know,     you're the most combat-oriented. [04:08] Serie     With a single look, you realized     you couldn't beat me in battle. [04:13] Serie     But that wasn't a judgment made out of fear. [04:16] Wirbel     An idiot prone to picking fights he can't win     wouldn't even make it to second-class mage. [04:21] Serie     That's true. [04:25] Serie     Tell me, what's your favorite spell? [04:27] Wirbel     Magic is a tool for killing. [04:30] Wirbel     I neither like nor dislike any spells. [04:34] Serie     You pass. [04:35] Seire     Next. [04:41] Serie     What did you think when you saw me? [04:45] Methode     Um, I thought you were small and cute. [04:52] Serie     What's wrong with this year's test-takers? [04:56] Serie     You pass. [05:04] Serie     Sense. [05:06] Serie     My apologies. We do have     a bumper crop this year. [05:15] Scharf     I failed. [05:16] Wirbel     There's always next time. [05:18] Land     Stop following me. [05:21] Kanne     Three years, huh? [05:24] Fern     Ms. Frieren, I passed. [05:28] Frieren     Well done. [05:31] Denken     Frieren. [05:34] Denken     I made it this far because of you two. [05:38] Denken     Finally, I can visit a certain grave     in my hometown. [05:43] Frieren     I see. [05:52] Stark     Hey, Fern. [05:54] Stark     Have you decided yet? [06:07] Fern     I'd like— [06:07] Laufen     Old man, I want these. [06:12] Denken     Well, well. [06:18] Denken     Don't be shy. Eat up. [06:21] Denken     When I was young, I hardly     ever got to eat sweet things. [06:27] Fern     Thank you. [06:34] Stark     What's going on here? [06:39] Denken     Have some, young man. [06:43] Stark     Thanks, old man. [06:53] Stark     Who is he? [06:54] Fern     Mr. Denken the Imperial Mage. [06:58] Stark     An imperial mage? [07:05] Stark     You mean he's a noble?! [07:07] Stark     I'm sorry for speaking so casually to you. [07:11] Denken     It's fine. I came to this city     as a mage like any other. [07:16] Stark     But you shouldn't feel obliged     to treat a stranger like me... [07:20] Denken     I have no other use for my money. [07:23] Stark     There must be something. [07:26] Fern     He's right. Don't you have grandchildren? [07:30] Denken     I have no children or grandchildren. [07:33] Denken     My wife passed away when     I was in my mid-twenties. [07:39] Denken     She was always sickly. [07:43] Denken     She was the daughter of a frontier noble [07:44] Denken     of the Northern Plateau who was     defeated in a political dispute. [07:49] Denken     Back then, I was in need of both     wealth and influence. [07:54] Denken     Those were the only ways I knew to save her. [07:59] Denken     When Serie established the     Continental Magic Association [08:02] Denken     and began offering the privilege, [08:04] Denken     it was just after my wife had already passed. [08:08] Denken     I'd never felt more powerless. [08:13] Denken     It's ironic. These days, I could     order entire nations around. [08:22] Denken     Fern. [08:23] Denken     For me, magic was only ever a tool     to resolve political disputes. [08:29] Denken     Tell Frieren she reminded me     of how fun magic can be. [08:38] Denken     The whole reason I became a mage was because [08:42] Denken     I admired her deeds in the party of heroes. [08:47] Fern     You should tell her that yourself. [08:49] Fern     I'm sure she'd be glad to hear it. [08:53] Denken     You're right. That's what I'll do. [09:06] Frieren     The magical city of Äußerst didn't disappoint. [09:09] Frieren     I bought a bunch of good grimoires. [09:19] Wirbel     Hey, old woman. [09:21] Wirbel     You want those in this basket, right? [09:27] Wirbel     How could you just ignore her? [09:30] Frieren     Honestly, I did think about it a little. [09:32] Wirbel     Just a little? [09:35] Wirbel     I'm surprised. I thought one of Himmel's     party members would be... [09:39] Frieren     Would be what? [09:44] Frieren     If anything, you surprised me. [09:47] Frieren     You tried to kill Fern's party     during the first test, didn't you? [09:51] Frieren     Fern complained to me about it. [09:53] Frieren     She said you seemed like someone     who'd kick a dog out of the way. [09:56] Wirbel     I get that a lot. [09:59] Wirbel     All I did was threaten them. [10:02] Wirbel     Though there was one of them whose death     would probably make the world a better place. [10:09] Wirbel     I'd do anything to protect my hometown. [10:14] Wirbel     I wanted to become a first-class mage for     the privilege of learning any spell I desired. [10:20] Wirbel     With a more powerful spell,     I can slaughter more demons. [10:25] Wirbel     But even in other parts of the world,     I do everything I can to help people in need. [10:33] Frieren     Why? [10:37] Wirbel     My hometown is on the northern frontier. [10:41] Wirbel     There are countless stories     about Himmel the Hero there. [10:48] Wirbel     The conquest of the Thousand-Mirror Tower. [10:50] Wirbel     His battles against Böse the Immortal,     the Seven Sages of Destruction, [10:53] Wirbel     and the Hell Emperor Dragon. [10:55] Wirbel     When I was a kid, I loved     those adventure stories. [11:01] Wirbel     But the village elders hardly     ever talked about them. [11:07] Wirbel     They'd talk about how he defeated the monsters [11:10] Wirbel     that attacked the village,     or how he guarded some merchant, [11:12] Wirbel     or even how he just helped     carry stuff like a porter. [11:17] Wirbel     They were hardly impressive.     Just a bunch of boring stories. [11:21] Wirbel     That's what I thought, anyway. [11:23] Wirbel     But you could tell how happy the village     elders were when they told those stories. [11:32] Wirbel     After Himmel the Hero died [11:35] Wirbel     and the remaining demons started     acting up, I finally understood. [11:49] Wirbel     The Thousand-Mirror Tower, Böse,     the Hell Emperor Dragon, [11:54] Wirbel     even the Demon King—none of that     had anything to do with my village. [11:59] Wirebl     Everyone had their hands full     just maintaining their everyday life. [12:05] Wirbel     If Himmel the Hero     hadn't come to my village, [12:09] Wirbel     then I doubt it'd still be there,     whether he saved the world or not. [12:14] Frieren     I see. What are you trying to say? [12:17] Wirbel     Those stories of Himmel's less exciting     adventures were what guided me here. [12:26] Wirbel     That's all I'm trying to say. [12:31] Wirbel     I've been talking for too long. [12:34] Wirbel     I'm heading back with those guys. [12:41] Wirbel     Frieren, you should treasure     the encounters you have. [12:45] Wirbel     Death isn't the only goodbye in this life. [12:51] Wirbel     But I guess you already know that. [13:01] (Flashback) Heiter     Frieren, can't you magic us     across one by one? [13:07] (Flashback) Frieren     Then I'd be left all alone on this side. [13:10] (Flashback) Eisen     Himmel, we need to defeat the     Demon King as soon as possible. [13:16] (Flashback) Eisen     What point is there in helping people     in these insignificant ways? [13:23] (Flashback) Himmel     You're right that they're insignificant. [13:26] (Flashback) Himmel     Such deeds won't change the world. [13:32] (Flashback) Himmel     But I won't ignore those in need     right in front of me. [13:48] Frieren     Don't worry, Himmel. [13:51] Frieren     The world has changed. [13:57] Fern     We'll be granted our privileges tonight,     and we're each allowed to bring guests. [14:02] Fern     Since we have the opportunity,     let's all go together. [14:08] Fern     She looks really unhappy about the idea. [14:12] Fern     I was told we're allowed to bring guests. [14:17] Clerk     I'm sorry, but Ms. Frieren     is prohibited per Ms. Serie. [14:22] Clerk     For the next thousand years, [14:24] Clerk     she is barred from entering any     Continental Magic Association facility. [14:28] Fern     What exactly did she do to deserve this? [14:32] Frieren     It can't be helped.     I rubbed Serie the wrong way. [14:38] Frieren     She's like a child. [14:41] Frieren     It's not as though     I wanted to be here anyway. [14:45] Frieren     I'll wait outside. [14:50] Stark     I'll wait outside, too. [14:54] Stark     Hey. [15:05] Stark     That's the early evening bell. [15:07] Frieren     They should be done receiving     their privileges soon. [15:10] Stark     Yeah. [15:12] Frieren     A first-class mage. [15:14] Frieren     The highest level of mage,     of whom fewer than fifty exist. [15:18] Frieren     Fern has grown so much. [15:25] Frieren     In this era, Fern will probably     become a more famous mage than me. [15:33] Stark     Frieren. [15:35] Frieren     I'm glad. [15:39] Stark     Me too. [15:40] Lernen     Ms. Frieren. [15:45] Stark     Who is he? [15:46] Frieren     A member of the Continental Magic Association. [15:48] Lernen     I'm the first-class mage Lernen,     one of Ms. Serie's students. [15:55] Lernen     I'm sorry for the trouble     Ms. Serie has caused you. [15:59] Frieren     It's fine. She's always been like that. [16:06] Stark     What is it, Frieren? [16:10] Frieren     You can see the fluctuations     in my mana, can't you? [16:15] Frieren     You're incredibly skilled.     This peaceful era doesn't suit you. [16:20] Lernen     You're right. I am an old-fashioned mage     who only knows battle. [16:27] Lernen     Ms. Serie often says the same thing. [16:30] Lernen     If I'd been born during the era in which     we fought the Demon King's forces, [16:33] Lernen     I would've gone down in history     alongside the other famous heroes. [16:39] Frieren     I see. So what do you want from me? [16:43] Lernen     The only one of Ms. Serie's students     whose name is remembered is her first, [16:47] Lernen     the Great Mage Flamme     spoken of in fairy tales. [16:52] Lernen     Once I grow old and die, yet another     proof of her existence will disappear. [16:59] Lernen     I don't want her to be alone in the future, [17:05] Lernen     even if it means going down in infamy     as the killer of the legendary mage Frieren. [17:30] Lernen     I request a duel, Ms. Frieren. [17:34] Frieren     I won't fight you. It'd be a waste of time. [17:38] Frieren     Honestly. [17:40] Frieren     Mages who only know how to fight     can be so awkward. [17:46] Frieren     There's no need for you to go down in history. [17:51] Frieren     Serie will remember you. [17:57] (Flashback) Frieren     One last thing. [18:00] (Flashback) Frieren     This field of flowers was conjured by magic. [18:05] (Flashback) Serie     So what? [18:07] (Flashback) Frieren     It was my master's favorite spell. [18:10] (Flashback) Frieren     Didn't you call it useless? [18:17] (Flashback) Serie     Honestly, Flamme was a failure. [18:21] (Flashback) Serie     Despite all her talent,     she failed to reach my heights. [18:28] (Flashback) Serie     I taught many students after her. [18:32] (Flashback) Serie     Most died without ever reaching my level. [18:37] (Flashback) Serie     But it's strange. [18:40] (Flashback) Serie     They were students I chose on a whim, [18:43] (Flashback) Serie     but I can clearly recall each one's     personality and favorite spell. [18:50] (Flashback) Serie     Frieren, for some reason, I've never     regretted taking on any of my students. [18:57] (Flashback) Serie     Even if they never made their mark on history. [19:02] Frieren     She can't even tell her own students     how she truly feels. [19:07] Frieren     She truly is a child. [19:15] Fern     Ms. Frieren. [19:17] Fern     I received my privilege. [19:19] Frieren     Shall we go, then? [19:21] Fern     Ms. Frieren, how did you get     that injury on your shoulder? [19:25] Frieren     I'd better get it healed at the church. [19:28] Frieren     Do you think they're still open? [19:31] Lernen     Truly, we are awkward. [19:36] Lernen     Both you and I. [19:42] Boy     Stark, what are we gonna do today? [19:45] Stark     Sorry, but I can't play today. [19:48] Townsfolk A     Stark, did you have breakfast this morning? [19:51] Stark     I already ate. [19:53] Townsfolk B     Stark, have some of this. [19:55] Stark     Hey, thanks. [19:58] Old Man     The path of the warrior     is long and treacherous. [20:01] Old Man     Take care. [20:03] Stark     I will. [20:08] Frieren     It's time to say goodbye to Äußerst. [20:12] Fern     People love you     everywhere you go, Mr. Stark. [20:15] Stark     Yeah? [20:17] Frieren     By the way, Fern, what spell     did you end up asking for yesterday? [20:28] Fern     Can't you tell? [20:30] Frieren     Your clothes are clean. [20:35] Freiren     And they smell vaguely floral. [20:38] Frieren     Could it be... [20:41] Fern     It's a spell to make clothes     clean and spotless. [20:44] Fern     This will make laundry a breeze. [20:47] Frieren     Serie the Living Grimoire     lived up to her name. [20:50] Frieren     That's a legendary-level spell     from the era of mythology. [20:56] Frieren     Well done, Fern. [20:59] Frieren     That's my student. [21:05] Fern     Of course, Ms. Frieren. [21:08] Fern     Ms. Serie didn't seem at all     happy about it, though. [21:12] (Flashback) Serie     Are you insane? [21:15] Frieren     I'm sure. Serves her right. [21:21] Kanne     They're here. [21:24] Kanne     Frieren, thank you for everything. [21:28] Lawine     We didn't pass this time,     but we'll try again in three years. [21:33] Frieren     I see. That's good. [21:36] Lawine     It's been fun. [21:37] Kanne     Take care. [21:39] Frieren     See you later. [21:40] Kanne     Yeah. See you later. [21:53] Fern     That was a rather quick goodbye,     just like with Sein. [21:58] Stark     And Kraft. [22:10] (Flashback) Frieren     Himmel, you always say quick goodbyes. [22:15] (Flashback) Himmel     You think that's strange? [22:17] (Flashback) Eisen     It doesn't seem like you. [22:20] (Flashback) Eisen     It was just a side job, but we still     spent two weeks traveling together. [22:24] (Flashback) Heiter     And we drank with him practically every night. [22:28] Frieren     You corrupt priest. [22:30] (Flashback) Himmel     You're right. [22:32] (Flashback) Himmel     But I'm sure we'll run into each other again     if we continue traveling. [22:38] (Flashback) Himmel     Tearful goodbyes aren't our style. [22:46] (Flashback) Himmel     After all, it would be embarrassing     when we met again. [24:05] Frieren     It would be embarrassing when we met again. [24:10] Fern     What does that mean? SIGN    Episode 28: It Would Be Embarrassing When We Met Again
