[00:04] GEORG
    Soon...
[00:06] GEORG
    Hurry up and come to me.
[00:16] GEOLUDE
    There they are!
[00:18] GEOLUDE
    Let's fight to our hearts' content!
[00:22] ARACHNEKNIGHT
    You crazy devil.
[00:24] ARACHNEKNIGHT
    We won't let you have our Forest of Ente!
[00:27] GEOLUDE
    I like your spirit.
[00:30] GEOLUDE
    Don't let me down, now.
[00:34] RAFLASIA
    Gellen got the best of the auxiliary gates.
[00:38] RAFLASIA
    He'll get to kill lots.
[00:41] RAFLASIA
    Oh?
[00:46] RAFLASIA
    Huh, you came alone?
[00:50] RAFLASIA
    Oh, how you underestimate me.
[00:54] RAFLASIA
    You can beg and cry to
    be killed all you want,
[00:57] RAFLASIA
    but I won't be so quick to
    put you out of your misery.
[01:01] DIADORA
    I wasn't about to let
    anyone else take you on.
[01:04] DIADORA
    I will make you wither myself.
SIGN    The Battle of the Demonic Realm Portal
[02:47] GIO
    Keep your distance and used ranged attacks.
[02:51] ELF1
    Energy Bolt!
[03:02] GELLEN
    Hmph, you won't wound me
    with such meager attacks.
[03:07] GIO
    We know that.
[03:09] GIO
    Aim for the joints!
[03:12] CELINA
    Fall back!
[03:14] CELINA
    Gaia Strike!
[03:25] CELINA
    Wait, what?
[03:27] CELINA
    That was more powerful than usual.
[03:31] GIO/FIO
    Celina?!
[03:32] FIO
    Why are you here?
    Didn't you head for the main gate?
[03:37] CELINA
    I left it to Dolan and Chris.
[03:40] GIO
    Sheesh.
[03:42] FIO
    All our planning was for naught.
[03:49] GELLEN
    This magic... The lamia from yesterday?
[03:53] GELLEN
    That was a pretty powerful spell.
[04:00] GELLEN
    You will be fun to devour.
[04:03] CELINA
    R-Right back at you. I'll be
    the one swallowing you whole!
[04:15] CHRISTINA
    Will Celina be all right?
[04:18] CHRISTINA
    Every one of those demons
    were absurdly strong.
[04:22] CHRISTINA
    I know she's with Gio's squad, but still...
[04:24] DOLAN
    Honestly, I think it will be a rough battle.
[04:30] (Flashback) CELINA
    I won't waver anymore.
[04:35] DOLAN
    But I also want to support
    her effort to change.
[04:42] CHRISTINA
    You really trust her.
[04:47] CHRISTINA
    Regardless, I'm still worried.
[04:49] CHRISTINA
    Maybe I should go back.
[04:52] DOLAN
    It'll be fine.
[04:53] DOLAN
    I gave Celina a special magic crystal.
[04:56] DOLAN
    It will assist her in battle.
[05:00] DOLAN
    Also, that girl is strong.
[05:03] DOLAN
    Stronger than she believes, even.
[05:11] CHRISTINA
    If you say so.
[05:14] CHRISTINA
    But no, I'm still worried!
[05:17] DRIVER
    We're arriving at the next auxiliary gate!
[05:21] GEOLUDE
    Weak, far too weak!
    This isn't very satisfying!
[05:51] (Flashback) CHRISTINA
    Get off. I'll run the carriage into him.
[05:54] (Flashback) DRIVER
    G-Got it!
[05:56] (Flashback) CHRISTINA
    Dolan, you head for the
    main gate as planned.
[05:58] (Flashback) CHRISTINA
    Let me handle this.
[06:00] (Flashback) DOLAN
    Understood.
[06:17] GEOLUDE
    Who goes there?!
[06:20] CHRISTINA
    I will be your opponent.
[06:24] CHRISTINA
    Are you unhurt?
[06:25] ARACHNEKNIGHT3
    Y-Yes!
[06:26] CHRISTINA
    Look for a chance to escape.
[06:28] CHRISTINA
    Take as many survivors with you as you can.
[06:31] ARACHNEKNIGHT3
    Right.
[06:34] GEOLUDE
    So it's you, superhuman.
[06:38] GEOLUDE
    I wanted to fight that human
    male more, but you'll do.
[06:45] GEOLUDE
    I'll let Georg have him.
[06:48] CHRISTINA
    My apologies. But I'm in a hurry myself.
[06:53] CHRISTINA
    Awaken, El Spada!
[07:11] GEOLUDE
    Let's enjoy this battle of life and death,
[07:15] GEOLUDE
    superhuman!
[07:22] GEOLUDE
    Oh? You're good.
[07:40] GEOLUDE
    Way to go, superhuman.
[07:43] CHRISTINA
    That again? I don't know anything
    about this superhuman malarkey.
[07:49] DOLAN
    I don't have to worry about Chris.
[07:52] DOLAN
    But I want to minimize casualties
    among all the troops.
[07:56] DOLAN
    I should hurry.
[08:11] DIADORA
    When will you deem it appropriate
    to fight me yourself?
[08:16] RAFLASIA
    Now should be a good time.
[08:18] RAFLASIA
    Very well. I'll play with you.
[08:33] RAFLASIA
    This will prevent any outside interference.
[08:36] RAFLASIA
    We can go at it without worry.
[08:39] DIADORA
    How thoughtful of you.
[08:46] RAFLASIA
    You're trying to blow away my mist, are you?
[08:49] RAFLASIA
    I'm glad to see you've learned. Very smart.
[08:52] RAFLASIA
    But you know what?
[08:56] RAFLASIA
    I can also use the lives
    I've absorbed this way.
[09:07] DIADORA
    Did you just throw their life energy at me?
[09:11] RAFLASIA
    Life is all powerful.
[09:14] RAFLASIA
    You just have to use it right.
[09:17] RAFLASIA
    Like this!
[09:30] RAFLASIA
    Well? Don't your friends'
    lives make quite the impact?
[09:35] RAFLASIA
    Impressive, isn't it?
[09:39] DIADORA
    How dare you!
[09:41] RAFLASIA
    You'd better take their
    lives into your arms!
[09:53] DIADORA
    A mist that absorbs life energy...
[09:56] RAFLASIA
    It's too bad.
[09:58] RAFLASIA
    I can absorb life energy while
    simultaneously using it.
[10:08] RAFLASIA
    Good. Resist with all you have.
[10:12] RAFLASIA
    I want your suffering to
    last as long as possible.
[10:16] RAFLASIA
    Because that brings me joy!
[10:20] DIADORA
    I'm not about to be your plaything!
[10:27] DIADORA
    The color black absorbs
    and embraces everything.
[10:30] DIADORA
    Roses with black petals are
    flowers that bewitch all.
[10:37] RAFLASIA
    Oh? Could it be?
[10:40] DIADORA
    I had sealed this power away,
    but you are a worthy—
[10:45] DIADORA
    no, a filthy enough opponent that
    I don't have to hold it back.
[10:51] RAFLASIA
    Ah, so you have the same power I do.
[10:57] RAFLASIA
    How amusing. Time for a race, then.
[11:01] RAFLASIA
    Let's see who can absorb
    the other's life first!
[11:21] RAFLASIA
    You were all talk.
[11:31] RAFLASIA
    That's a nice look.
[11:34] RAFLASIA
    You came to challenge me alone,
    and you'll wither away all alone!
[11:40] RAFLASIA
    How does it feel to have your life
    slowly seep out of your body?
[11:46] DIADORA
    You've absorbed quite a lot of my life energy.
[11:50] DIADORA
    It should be flowing all
    through you by now, I believe.
[11:54] RAFLASIA
    It feels incredible.
[11:57] RAFLASIA
    Irresistibly delicious.
[12:01] RAFLASIA
    The spice of your hatred perfectly
    accentuates the flavor.
[12:06] RAFLASIA
    I want to taste this every day if I could!
[12:10] DIADORA
    I'm glad you like it.
[12:13] DIADORA
    Because it's the last
    thing you'll ever taste.
[12:17] DIADORA
    Enjoy it while you can.
[12:21] RAFLASIA
    What are you saying—
[12:27] RAFLASIA
    What? Where's this pain coming from?
[12:31] RAFLASIA
    What the heck?!
[12:45] RAFLASIA
    Why are roses blooming from my body?!
[12:53] DIADORA
    This battle was decided
    before we even began.
[12:58] RAFLASIA
    What?
[12:59] RAFLASIA
    Ow! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!
[13:03] DIADORA
    Do you remember when I attacked you
    with a thorn in yesterday's battle?
[13:10] DIADORA
    I sowed some tiny, tiny black
    rose seeds in you then.
[13:17] DIADORA
    You never expected an attack
    to come from within, did you?
[13:21] RAFLASIA
    Ah, no... How vexing!
[13:25] RAFLASIA
    Don't suck my life away!
[13:28] RAFLASIA
    I am the princess of flowers, meant to
    absorb all life and bloom brilliantly...
[13:46] DIADORA
    I managed to defeat her,
[13:49] DIADORA
    but I don't think I could even beat
    a woodman sapling right now.
[13:54] DIADORA
    This is bad news.
[14:01] DOLAN
    Energy Rain!
[14:07] DIADORA
    What?
[14:14] DIADORA
    Dolan?
[14:23] CELINA
    Huh?
[14:25] CELINA
    Why am I...
[14:28] FIO
    Celina? Celina!
[14:31] CELINA
    I-I just cast a spell...
[14:34] CELINA
    And then I blocked with Earth Shield...
[14:37] CELINA
    Huh? I couldn't block it?
[14:51] DOLAN
    Celestial Javelin!
[15:01] DOLAN
    You're awake.
[15:03] DIADORA
    What is this magic circle?
[15:05] DOLAN
    One of defense and healing.
[15:08] DOLAN
    As long as you're in it, it will heal you
    and protect you from outside threats.
[15:13] DIADORA
    Thank you.
[15:15] DIADORA
    I also owe you for your help earlier.
[15:20] DOLAN
    Don't worry about it.
[15:24] DIADORA
    So you really aren't human.
[15:30] DOLAN
    Hm? Oh, you mean these?
[15:34] DOLAN
    I am human.
[15:36] DOLAN
    It's just, I have my soul from
    my past life—that of a dragon.
[15:42] DIADORA
    I've never even seen a real dragon,
[15:45] DIADORA
    and here I'm meeting one reborn first.
[15:52] DOLAN
    You should lie down for a while longer.
[15:55] DIADORA
    I don't have the time for that.
[15:58] DOLAN
    I know. So I'm sorry,
    but I'll be going ahead.
[16:03] DIADORA
    I'll go with you.
[16:04] DOLAN
    I'm going to fly there.
[16:08] DOLAN
    You probably wouldn't
     be able keep up.
[16:10] DIADORA
    I can go with you, if you carry me.
[16:16] DOLAN
    Frankly, I'd find it easier
    to fight Georg by myself.
[16:23] DIADORA
    How cold.
[16:26] DIADORA
    Not that I need to worry about
    you, but please do take care.
[16:30] DOLAN
    Thanks, I will.
[16:32] DIADORA
    No, that's not what I'm worried
    about when it comes to you.
[16:36] DIADORA
    Take care not to use too much of
    your power and destroy the forest.
[16:41] DOLAN
    Very well. I'll be careful.
[16:49] DIADORA
    I wish you luck.
[16:56] GIO
    That's right. Don't let him get any closer.
[16:59] ELFWOMAN
    Yeah, you got it.
[17:01] FIO
    Hang in there, Celina! You'll be okay!
[17:05] CELINA
    Fio?
[17:07] CELINA
    Why does she sound so worried?
[17:11] CELINA
    Huh? I feel really...
[17:20] FIO
    Don't look, Celina!
[17:22] FIO
    Brother!
[17:23] GIO
    Yeah, hold her down!
[17:33] GIO
    I'll cast a painkilling spell on her.
[17:42] FIO
    No way... Celina, you can use healing magic?
[17:45] ELFMALE
    Hey, he's getting closer!
[17:47] GIO
    This is bad.
[17:51] FIO
    Listen well, Celina.
[17:54] FIO
    Keep going straight,
    and you'll exit the forest.
[17:57] CLEINA
    Huh?
[17:58] FIO
    Keep going straight, and don't look back.
[18:01] FIO
    We want you to escape at least.
[18:03] CELINA
    Escape by myself? I can't do that.
[18:07] FIO
    Please. I don't want you to die.
[18:11] FIO
    So run away.
[18:15] GEOLUDE
    Eat this!
[18:33] CHRISTINA
    How many more cuts must
     I make to take you down?
[18:37] GEOLUDE
    That's a superhuman for you.
    Your abilities are no joke.
[18:42] CHRISTINA
    Seriously, what are you talking
    about? What is a superhuman?
[18:46] GEOLUDE
    What? Are they not well-known
    in the human realm?
[18:55] GEOLUDE
    I see how it is now.
[18:59] GEOLUDE
    I'll tell you.
[19:01] GEOLUDE
    Superhumans are monsters that are born
     among the frail humans in rare instances.
[19:09] GEOLUDE
    They are superior to ordinary humans
    in power, magic, and intelligence.
[19:15] GEOLUDE
    And the humans can't stand having
    such extraordinary people around.
[19:22] GEOLUDE
    Of course they'd ostracize them.
[19:25] CHRISTINA
    What would you know, demon?!
[19:28] GEOLUDE
    Oh? Did that strike a nerve?
[19:34] GEOLUDE
    Superhumans were our natural enemies.
[19:38] GEOLUDE
    Despite being mere humans,
    they've killed demons, fallen gods,
[19:42] GEOLUDE
    and even the most powerful ancient dragon.
[19:48] GEOLUDE
    That's right. The hero who
    killed the ancient dragon...
[19:55] GEOLUDE
    He was a superhuman.
[20:04] GEORG
    I've been waiting for you.
[20:11] GEOLUDE
    I never expected to be able
    to fight one of them myself!
[20:17] CHRISTINA
    So I'm one of those spoken of in that song.
[20:23] GEOLUDE
    Now show me your hero's power!
[20:28] CHRISTINA
    You have my thanks.
    You've helped me understand.
[20:31] CHRISTINA
    This power of mine...
[20:34] CHRISTINA
    exists to defeat the likes of you!
[20:53] GEOLUDE
    So this is what a hero is capable of...
[20:56] GEOLUDE
    I wonder how the dragon felt when
    he was killed by such a monster.
[21:10] CHRISTINA
    It's obvious.
[21:12] CHRISTINA
    The dragon counted the
    hero among his friends.
[21:16] CHRISTINA
    And that friend betrayed his trust.
[21:20] CHRISTINA
    He must resent him for that.
[21:23] GEORG
    Ever since I saw my former master,
    War God Ardes, and you fight together,
[21:30] GEORG
    I have wanted to cross swords with you.
[21:34] DOLAN
    A battle addict that fell
    into the demonic realm, huh?
[21:37] DOLAN
    You dare to challenge me, knowing who I am?
[21:43] GEORG
    As I must, as a wicked spirit
    obsessed with life and death.
[21:47] DOLAN
    Perish lamenting your own powerlessness.
[21:53] GEORG
    Now that you are reborn as a human,
[21:58] GEORG
    my sword may be able to
    pierce through your heart.
[22:08] GEORG
    Surely you cannot use your
     full power in these lands.
[22:13] GEORG
    Come.
[22:15] GEORG
    Allow me to guide you to our demonic realm.
