SIGN    Gods' Games We Play SIGN    Gods' Games We Play SIGN    Sunsteal Scramble [01:36] Leshea     Magnificent. I can't believe     you have this rare game. [01:40] Old Shopkeeper     Well, well, little lady. You have a good eye. [01:44] Old Shopkeeper     But that's a legendary boardgame. It's     gonna be too expensive with your allowance. [01:51] Leshea     Well, I definitely have an allowance. [01:55] Leshea     I'll be using this card. [01:58] Old Shopkeeper     Wha?! [02:00] Old Shopkeeper     Th-This is a platinum credit     card with no limits! [02:05] Leshea     Could you have all the items     in your shop shipped to Ruin? [02:09] Old Shopkeeper     Wh-Why, yes! Of course! Right away! [02:12] Leshea     'Kay, thanks. [02:15] Fay     Hey, Leshea. [02:17] Leshea     Hm? [02:18] Fay     Didn't Chief Secretary Miranda tell     you not to overuse that thing? [02:22] Leshea     Yup! I'm just going to buy up two     or three more shops, and then I'll stop. [02:31] Fay     I guess you bought quite     a bit yourself, Pearl. [02:34] Pearl     Yes...! [02:36] Pearl     This is my reward for getting     through such a fiery battle. [02:46] Pearl     Anyway, let's go! [02:48] Fay     Go where? [02:49] Pearl     To a famous takoyaki shop that's nearby. [02:52] Fay     You're not done eating?! [02:53] Pearl     Of course not. There's a     famous shop right over there! [02:55] Apostle A     U-Um, Lady Dragon God... [02:56] Fay     That doesn't mean you have to eat there. [02:58] Apostle A     Could we get a picture with you?! [03:00] Leshea     Huh? With me? [03:03] Apostle B     C-Could we also get your autograph? [03:07] Fay     Did anything like this ever     happen to Leshea before? [03:10] Pearl     Well, she's quite feared in Ruin, so... [03:13] Fay     Oh, right... [03:15] Pearl     She's super cute when you don't     know how dangerous she can be. [03:15] Apostle B     Say cheese! [03:20] Fay     She seems uneasy about the whole thing. [03:22] Girl A     U-Um! [03:25] Girl A     We watched yesterday's game! [03:27] Girl B     Your play was just amazing, Fay!     Could we get your autograph? [03:31] Girl C     Please shake my hand! [03:33] Fay     W-Wait, hang on! [03:38] Fay     Wait, you can't be serious! I've     never even experienced this in Ruin! [03:41] Pearl     Th-This must be the effect of being     a guest at the World Games Tour! [03:45] Pearl     Which means... Well, I was     the star of yesterday's game. [03:50] Pearl     That means the line of people     asking for my autograph [03:53] Pearl     will be as long as the line     for a theme park ride! [03:55] Pearl     Now, come to me, my fans! [04:03] Pearl     Well... I guess I'm just gonna     go buy a crepe or something... [04:12] Girl D     Thank you very much! [04:16] Fay     Whew, I guess I'm finally done. [04:19] Leshea     I was so nervous. [04:21] Fay     You definitely seemed out     of your comfort zone. [04:24] Fay     I haven't even written an     autograph in like six months. [04:28] Leshea     I think I might want your autograph, too! [04:30] Fay     Wait, what? What would you even do with it? [04:33] Leshea     I'll keep it as a treasure! Isn't     that what humans normally do? [04:38] Fay     Uh... [04:38] Leshea     Please! As a token of our friendship! [04:42] Fay     Okay, fine. Do you have an autograph board? [04:45] Leshea     No. [04:46] Fay     Then we can stop by a stationery     shop on the way back... [04:57] Leshea     I want one right now. [04:59] Fay     Uh, that's great and all, but... [05:01] Leshea     It doesn't have to be on an autograph board. [05:03] Leshea     I'd much prefer to keep it     with me at all times anyway. [05:06] Leshea     Could you sign the back of my ribbon? [05:09] Fay     That's really small. I'm not     sure I can properly write one. [05:12] Leshea     Well, this'll make it feel like     it's truly mine and mine alone! [05:23] Fay     Okay, here you go. [05:27] Leshea     Yay! I'll treasure it forever. [05:35] Pearl     What are you two doing? [05:38] Pearl     You two seemed rather close. [05:42] Fay     Er, Leshea was just asking for my autograph. [05:45] Pearl     Uh-huh... [05:46] Fay     No, really! [05:48] Pearl     Uh-huh... [05:49] Fay     What's your problem?! [05:59] Fay     What's with that crowd? [06:01] Woman A     Dax! [06:02] Woman B     Look this way, Dax! [06:04] Fay     Dax?! [06:06] Pearl     Are they shooting an episode of Dax's Lunch?! [06:09] Fay     What now? [06:11] Pearl     It's a stream of just him eating lunch. [06:14] Fay     It's aptly named, I guess?! [06:15] Pearl     He's got tens of thousands of fans     who watch in real time... [06:18] Pearl     I've heard that he earns twice as much as     an apostle just from the streaming profits. [06:23] Fay     This is way too ridiculous! [06:25] Kelritch     Well, he is quite popular. [06:29] Fay     Uh... Kelritch? [06:32] Kelritch     Well done yesterday. [06:35] Kelritch     He has a clear mind, excels     at sports, he's tall, [06:38] Kelritch     has a charming smile, and he's a top     game player who cares for his teammates. [06:43] Kelritch     Of course he'd be popular. [06:45] Fay     Enough compliments there? [06:47] Kelritch     I'm only stating the truth. [06:48] Pearl     Do you also appear in Dax's Lunch, Kelritch? [06:52] Kelritch     No. Dax and I have nothing more     than a business relationship. [06:56] Kelritch     I have no interest in his private     life outside of what we do as a team. [06:59] Kelritch     I have no other feelings towards him. [07:01] Pearl     R-Right... [07:03] Kelritch     I now bid you farewell. [07:07] Pearl     She's definitely walking towards     the area they're filming. [07:12] Fay     The apostles in this city     are definitely unique... [07:16] Fay     Don't you think so... [07:18] Fay     Nel? [07:19] Nel     H-How long have you known I was here?! [07:22] Fay     The whole time. [07:23] Pearl     Your face was totally visible. [07:30] Nel     Master Fay. A-After seeing your battle     yesterday, I'm more certain than ever! [07:34] Nel     I want to help you! [07:36] Nel     Please... I can no longer fight myself     because I lost to the gods, but... [07:41] Nel     Please let me assist you as a game analyst! [07:46] Nel     Master Fay! [07:48] Fay     I decline. [07:50] Nel     Th-Then how about I be your maid?! [07:53] Nel     I'll do your cleaning, laundry,     and cook your meals! All of it! [07:55] Leshea     Absolutely not. [07:59] Nel     I see... [08:01] Nel     I'm sorry for wasting your time.     I guess I was too pathetic. [08:06] Fay     Are you really satisfied with that? [08:09] Fay     An analyst, a maid... [08:11] Fay     That's not what you really want to do, is it? [08:16] Nel     Wh-What are you talking about, Master Fay?! [08:18] Fay     We'll be meeting up at the     Arcane Court tomorrow. [08:21] Nel     Huh? [08:27] Baleggar     Looks like the day's finally arrived, [08:30] Baleggar     Lady Leoleshea, Mr. Fay, and Pearl. [08:33] Pearl     I don't even get a "Miss"?! [08:34] Baleggar     Now starts your real battle. [08:37] Baleggar     You'll be doing a battle     of wits with the gods. [08:40] Baleggar     You currently only have three members. [08:42] Baleggar     In order to fulfill HQ's requirement     of at least ten members, [08:44] Baleggar     we've chosen twelve apostles from our branch. [08:48] Fay     Thank you. [08:49] Baleggar     Indeed. They've already completed the dive. [08:53] Nel     U-Um, Chief Secretary...? [08:57] Nel     Wh-What am I doing here? [09:00] Baleggar     I was told by Mr. Fay that you'd     also be watching the match. [09:03] Nel     Huh? [09:05] Nel     Master Fay. I spent all night thinking     about it, but I still don't understand. [09:08] Nel     What did you mean yesterday? [09:11] Fay     Aren't teammates supposed to     stand by their team? [09:15] Fay     I'm sure it's unsatisfying,     only being able to stand by... [09:18] Fay     but, for now, just believe and support us. [09:21] Nel     What do you mean, Master Fay?! [09:23] Leshea     Okay, let's go! [09:23] Pearl     Wait, don't push me! [09:27] Nel     Master Fay! [09:29] Nel     I don't understand what you're saying... [09:31] Nel     But since I'm here, there's     only one thing for me to do. [09:34] Nel     I'm going to support you     with everything I have! [09:37] Fay     Right. SIGN    Is it my turn yet...? SIGN    Gods' Games We Play [09:48] Pearl     It's so hot... Why's the     sun coming down so strong? [09:54] Fay     Everything about this place     seems like a real desert. [09:57] Leshea     I wonder what kind of game     we're playing this time. [09:59] Dax     We've been waiting for you, Fay. [10:07] Dax     Let's see your true worth! [10:09] Kelritch     Pleasure to work with you again. [10:12] Fay     That entrance wasn't planned or anything... [10:20] Camilla     Hello, Lady Leoleshea the Dragon God. [10:23] Camilla     Also, Fay and Pearl. My name is... [10:26] Dax     Her name is Camilla. The rest of them are     members of Camilla's team, Archangel. [10:31] Camilla     Wait, why are you saying my line?! [10:33] Dax     You may just think of them as filler. [10:35] Camilla     How rude can you be?! [10:38] Dax     Fay! [10:41] Dax     This is your event. [10:43] Dax     It is not my place to interfere... but! [10:46] Dax     As your fated rival, I look     forward to your gameplay. [10:51] Fay     Huh? Uh, yeah. I'm just     gonna do what I usually do. [10:55] Dax     Very good! [10:57] Dax     Now, all the actors are     here! Come forth, god! [11:01] Fay     What was that about not interfering?! [11:07] Apostle A     Wh-What's that? [11:15] Apostle B     What is that? [11:18] Fay     That's... [11:23] Fay     A pyramid? [11:26] Meep     Hello! Welcome to my god's Elements! [11:31] Meep     Hm? Fifteen of you? [11:33] Meep     That's two less than what     my master anticipated. [11:37] Camilla     Huh? What did you just say? [11:38] Meep     But it's time now, so we're going     to cut off the game to more players [11:42] Meep     and begin explaining the game! [11:44] Meep     Now, as a token of our friendship, I'd     like to give you all some flowers! [11:59] Fay     Huh... It's curious that it's just     the bud before it's about to bloom. [12:03] Meep     You'll be disqualified if you lose     those, so make sure you hold onto them. [12:07] Meep     Once those buds bloom, they'll     be one of three colors. [12:11] Meep     There'll be gold, black, and white. [12:13] Meep     The gold one is called the sun flower. SIGN    Sun flower [12:15] Meep     There's only one of those out     of the flowers I gave out. [12:19] Meep     The black poison flower. There's     also only one of those. SIGN    Poison flower [12:23] Meep     And the white one is the sand flower. SIGN    Sand flower [12:25] Meep     The remaining thirteen will be those. [12:28] Meep     The goal is to offer the sun flower upon     the altar at the top of the pyramid. [12:33] Meep     We call it the Sunsteal Scramble. [12:37] Fay     There's about two to three     kilometers to the goal. [12:40] Leshea     That distance wouldn't even     take me five minutes... [12:44] Leshea     as long as nothing gets in my way. [12:46] Fay     Yeah, and I'm sure something     will get in our way. [12:49] Fay     They're calling this a "scramble" after all. [12:51] Meep     You are quite correct! [12:53] Meep     My master's team will get in your     way and try to take your flowers! [12:57] Meep     Allow me to introduce you. [12:59] Meep     Come forth, beasts that     my master has created! [13:16] Cat Golem     Meow. [13:19] Fay     Wait, that's a cat! [13:23] Pearl     They're so cute! [13:31] Pearl     H-Hey, wait... [13:35] Pearl     Th-They're huge! [13:37] Fay     So those guys are on the god's     team and going to get in our way. [13:40] Meep     Correct. [13:41] Meep     They're going to come for your flowers. [13:44] Meep     Conversely, if you all steal the beasts'     flowers, they'll be out of the game. [13:50] Meep     And if they take your sun flower,     your whole team will lose. [13:55] Meep     One of them on my master's     team also has a sun flower, [13:58] Meep     so stealing the beasts'     flowers is one strategy. [14:02] Leshea     What about the other two flowers? [14:04] Meep     Stealing the sand flowers     or having them stolen [14:07] Meep     will not result in a win or loss. [14:08] Meep     They're basically camouflage. However... [14:10] Meep     If you steal a poison flower,     your team will get a debuff. [14:15] Meep     Not only will the opposing team find     out who has the sun flower, [14:18] Meep     but your whole team will be     stunned for five seconds. SIGN    Stun [14:21] Meep     While you're stunned, you won't be     able to move, attack, or defend. [14:26] Meep     This goes for both teams. [14:28] Leshea     So you want the other team to take them. [14:30] Pearl     If we successfully have the     enemies take the poison flower, [14:33] Pearl     we'd be able to get 20 meters     away in like five seconds... [14:37] Fay     That five-second stun     essentially means we'd lose. [14:40] Pearl     Wait, what?! [14:42] Fay     Because if you let Leshea do     what she wants for five seconds, [14:44] Fay     she could steal all the flowers she wants. [14:46] Pearl     Oh, you're right. [14:48] Leshea     The same goes for us. [14:50] Leshea     If we were to take their poison     flower, we've essentially lost. [14:54] Fay     We have to guard the sun     flower with our lives [14:56] Fay     and figure out how to get the     enemy to take the poison flower... [14:58] Fay     Acting skills and intuition... [15:00] Fay     This is going to test our cooperation     to figure out who'll carry what. [15:04] Fay     Is it all right to exchange information     to try to figure out who has what flower? [15:08] Meep     Of course. Try peeking inside the buds a bit. [15:13] Fay     It's white... meaning it's a sand flower. [15:17] Pearl     I-I have the sun flower! [15:19] Kelritch     I have the poison flower. [15:23] Camilla     The rest are sand flowers. [15:25] Meep     So you all know who has what flower now? [15:29] Meep     You can exchange flowers freely! Make sure     you choose who holds what flower wisely. [15:35] Fay     Let's review. [15:36] Fay     This Sunsteal Scramble has three     rules that affect victory and defeat. SIGN    Victory     Condition 1 SIGN    Place the     sun flower     onto the     altar at the     top of the     pyramid as     an offering SIGN    Victory     Condition 2 SIGN    Take     the     god's     team's     sun     flower SIGN    Loss     Condition SIGN    The     human     team's     sun     flower     is stolen [15:48] Pearl     There's a few thousand meters to     the pyramid off on the horizon. [15:51] Pearl     And in the race to the goal, [15:53] Pearl     we're going to be chased by     the god and the cat golems. [15:56] Fay     Yeah. They're pretty fast, [15:59] Fay     so in order to get away, you'll     need high athletic abilities. [16:02] Fay     I mean... We know who the best     candidate to hold the sun flower is. [16:06] Leshea     Hm? I'm fine with holding     it, but more importantly... [16:13] Leshea     Wouldn't it be more fun to     hold onto the poison flower? [16:16] Fay     I considered that, too.     That's another possibility. [16:19] Fay     The god's team will probably predict     that Leshea will have the sun flower, [16:24] Fay     so I think flipping that on     them would be a great strategy. [16:27] Pearl     So who's going to hold the sun flower? [16:31] Fay     Someone with a superhuman ability. [16:34] Fay     Who fits that bill? [16:41] Fay and Pearl     Huh? [16:44] Kelritch     What's that look for? Are you surprised     that I'm the superhuman type? [16:49] Fay     Actually, yeah. [16:50] Pearl     I figured you'd be a magical type. [16:54] Kelritch     My Arise is instantaneous     physical reinforcement. [16:57] Kelritch     I'll be able to protect myself, so I     think leaving it to me is a good option. [17:02] Fay     I'll keep that in mind. [17:05] Fay     Can we switch flowers during the game? [17:06] Meep     You can. [17:08] Meep     But if there's even a moment     when you have no flower on you, [17:12] Meep     you'll be disqualified     for not having a flower. [17:16] Fay     What if we try to throw them to each other? [17:19] Meep     Bzzt. [17:20] Meep     That would cause you to not have     a flower even for a second, [17:22] Meep     so you'll be disqualified at that moment. [17:25] Pearl     In that case... [17:26] Pearl     I'll use my Arise to switch out our flowers! [17:29] Pearl     Shift Change! [17:32] Meep     Bzzt! [17:33] Pearl     Huh?! [17:34] Fay     Still, we'd lose our flowers     the instant the transfer occurs, [17:37] Fay     so we'd be disqualified. [17:39] Fay     If a player is in a pinch, can they     throw their flower to someone else? [17:42] Meep     Ding, ding! [17:44] Meep     That is possible. [17:45] Meep     Of course, the player who threw     the flower will be disqualified. [17:49] Fay     So basically, this will take some     perfect teamwork between the fifteen of us. [17:53] Fay     We all have to protect the     sun flower with our lives. [17:56] Dax     Fay. [18:00] Dax     You decide who's going to hold what flower. [18:03] Dax     This is your gods' game. [18:05] Camilla     Dax?! What's with you today? [18:07] Camilla     Usually, you'd say, "I'm clearly the     only option to hold the sun flower." [18:12] Camilla     What's brought this on? [18:16] (Flashback) Nel     Let's make a wager. [18:18] (Flashback) Dax     How interesting. [18:20] Dax     It's because I lost a bet. [18:22] Dax     I just genuinely want to know how my     unparalleled rival will face off with a god. [18:32] Camilla     Well, whatever. [18:36] Camilla     Fay, here are our Arises for reference. [18:41] Camilla     That's the data list for the team. [18:43] Camilla     It has the number of wins and losses     and details regarding our Arises. [18:49] Fay     Thanks. [18:50] Fay     I've looked through them. [18:51] Camilla     Already?! [18:53] Fay     All right. First, give     me all of your flowers. [18:57] Fay     I'm going to shuffle and redistribute them. [19:00] Fay     The ones that are going to get     the sun and poison flowers are... [19:09] Fay     I've got it. [19:19] Fay     Everyone, could you take a look     inside your flowers like earlier? [19:24] Fay     Make sure no one else sees what's inside. [19:32] Kelritch     So that's your play. [19:35] Fay     My plan's already been set into motion. [19:38] Fay     The basic rundown of my plan is... [19:40] Camilla     Hang on a sec! Tell us who     has the sun flower first! [19:44] Fay     No, this is necessary for the plan. [19:47] Fay     I'm not going to tell anyone     who has the sun flower. [19:50] Camilla     Wait, what?! [19:51] Fay     If I tell you who has it, everyone's     going to try to protect them. [19:55] Fay     That means the god will also     figure out who has it, right? [19:58] Dax     But if your teammates don't even     know, the god won't find out. [20:02] Dax     That's your play, isn't it? [20:04] Fay     The god is used to playing this game. [20:07] Fay     So... [20:08] Fay     The best way to go about this is to use     a strategy that the god's never seen. [20:12] Fay     I need you all to believe in me. [20:15] Meep     Looks like you've decided on your plan. [20:17] Meep     In that case, let us welcome     my master, Mahtma II! [20:33] Mahtma II     Well? [20:35] Mahtma II     Has the game begun yet? [20:38] Pearl     Wh-What is this? I'm hearing     something in my head... [20:41] Fay     Is this telepathy? [20:42] Pearl     U-Um! [20:43] Pearl     There's something I really need to ask! [20:46] Pearl     Since you're Mahtma II, does     that mean there's a Mahtma I? [20:50] Mahtma II     No. [20:51] Pearl     Don't you think that's a bit confusing?! [20:54] Mahtma II     All of this world is a     game. My name included. [21:01] Fay     So that's... [21:02] Fay     the god's flower. [21:04] Leshea     Do you think he has the sun flower? [21:06] Fay     Well, it'd be the safest for the god to     hold onto it, so the possibility's high. [21:10] Leshea     So he's basically telling us     to come steal it if we can. [21:15] Fay     Then I'll make sure we can face that head on! [21:20] Mahtma II     I'm going to begin the game. [21:21] Mahtma II     Humans, play this game with     omniscience and omnipotence. [21:29] Mahtma II     What are you doing? [21:31] Mahtma II     Humans. [21:32] Fay     It's just what it looks like. [21:33] Leshea     The game's about to begin,     right? Then let's get started. [21:38] Fay and Leshea     The one who has the sun flower... [21:41] Fay and Leshea     is me. [21:49] Uroboros     Too slow. [21:50] Uroboros     Too slow, too slow, too slow! [21:52] Uroboros     They promised me we'd play again! [21:55] Uroboros     I can't wait any longer! SIGN    Undefeated SIGN    Undefeated [22:06] Uroboros     Tiny humans, I'm coming to look for you!
