[00:10] Keera
    Simply wonderful!
[00:12] Keera
    Just as one would expect from a Summon
[00:15] ---
    whose use is forbidden because
    it will destroy the world!
[00:24] Diablo
    Cross Reverie never had
    a Summon like this...

[00:27] Shera**
    Run, Diablo!
[00:29] Shera
    That Summon has been in the royal family
    for generations! It's a guardian deity!
[00:32] Shera
    You'll never defeat it!
[00:48] Diablo
    How interesting.
[00:52] Diablo
    All of you, stand back.
[00:54] Diablo
    I'm going to crush that thing!
SIGN    Episode Eight
    Hero's Charge
[02:37] Keera
    Get him, Force Hydra!
[02:39] Keera
    Kill him!
[02:45] Diablo
    Well, you don't have any control
    over it at all, do you?
[02:49] Diablo
    Neither this powerful Summon
[02:51] ---
    nor the flute that manipulated
    Shera were in the game.
[02:55] Diablo
    It's possible that every planned element of
    Cross Reverie is already part of this world.
[03:00] Diablo
    That's an exciting thought!
[03:08] Celsior
    That's...
[03:10] Keera
    You idiot!
[03:12] Keera
    There's no way you can win!
[03:13] Keera
    Just disappear, you Demon!
[03:15] Diablo
    Looks like his confidence

    in this Summon is absolute.
[03:19] Diablo
    Heaven's Fall!
[03:33] Diablo
    It's weaker than I thought.
[03:35] Diablo
    It should go down in
    another four or five shots.
[03:44] Diablo
    Regeneration?!
[03:45] Diablo
    That's way too fast! Is this a bug?!
[03:50] Rem
    Diablo!
[03:52] Keera
    That's it, Force Hydra!
[03:54] Keera
    Did you see that, Demon?!
[04:00] Diablo
    Dragon's Breath is a purely
    elemental attack.
[04:03] Diablo
    Magic Reflection and physical damage
    reduction won't activate against it.
[04:07] Diablo
    What worries me is its skills.
[04:09] Diablo
    Summons are supposed to be
    limited to a single skill.
[04:17] Diablo
    Yet this one seems to have two skills?
[04:29] Diablo
    Ice, Sand, Wind, and Fire?!
[04:31] Diablo
    That's too many attack skills!
[04:33] Diablo
    Are you saying this world is
    nothing more than another world
[04:36] ---
    that just resembles Cross Reverie*?!
[04:38] Keera
    Yes, yes! This is my power!
[04:42] Keera
    I don't need anyone who'll get
    in my way or drag me down!
[05:04] Diablo
    There must be something...
[05:05] Diablo
    What's its weakness?
[05:07] Shera
    Diablo!
[05:09] Shera
    I've heard that the Force Hydra possesses
    a core somewhere in its body,
[05:12] Shera
    and destroying that returns it to its crystal!
[05:16] Diablo
    So that's what it is?
[05:18] Keera
    How does an idiot like you know about that?
[05:21] Keera
    Still, its core moves
    around within its body.
[05:26] Keera
    It won't be that easy for you to find!
[05:35] Diablo
    Moving weak points are classic.
[05:37] Keera
    What?
[05:38] Diablo
    I never planned to search for it at all!
[05:41] Diablo
    Matoi Izuna!
[06:18] Keera
    Wh-What is this?!
[06:22] Keera
    I don't understand!
[06:27] Rem
    Way to go, Diablo!
[06:30] Alicia
    I can't believe you beat
    a Summon that powerful.
[06:40] Keera
    What the hell are you?!
[06:42] Diablo
    I am Diablo.
[06:44] Diablo
    A chaotic Demon Lord from another
    world that no one can control.
[06:48] Keera
    Don't be ridiculous!
[06:49] Keera
    There's no way you're a Demon Lord!
[06:53] Diablo
    You need to be punished.
[06:55] Diablo
    Pay for your many mistakes with your death!
[07:01] Diablo
    I'll end this in an instant.
[07:04] Diablo
    Burst, Explos—
[07:06] Shera
    Wait! Spare him!
[07:09] Diablo
    Shera?!
[07:11] Diablo
    You're not still under his control, are you?
[07:15] Shera
    No, I'm not.
[07:19] Shera
    I still hate Nii-san.
[07:22] Shera
    I loathe him.
[07:24] Shera
    But he's still family.
[07:28] Shera
    We still laughed together.
[07:33] Keera
    Tch!
[07:37] Diablo
    Are you sure, Shera?
[07:39] Shera
    Yes. Thank you, Diablo.
[07:43] Shera
    And sorry.
[07:50] Galford
    It's not good for us if you
    just decide to spare him.
[07:57] Keera
    Shera...
[08:05] Celsior
    Keera-sama!
[08:16] Diablo
    Galford?
[08:26] Diablo
    What do you think you're doing?
[08:28] Celsior
    How dare you?!
[08:33] Galford
    This is war.
[08:35] Galford
    The war started the moment that Elf prince
[08:38] ---
    sent his troops into another
    nation's territory.
[08:41] Galford
    He has no right to complain
    about being killed.
[08:48] Galford
    Exterminate the Elven troops
    scattered in the forest!
[08:51] Galford
    Capture the princess!
[08:52] Galford
    You may eliminate any who interfere!
[08:56] Diablo
    Were you planning to do this all along?!
[08:59] Diablo
    Were you plotting to make me fight the Elves
[09:02] ---
    so you would have a justification
    for seizing Greenwood?!
[09:06] Galford
    If you intend to interfere,
    I'll need to eliminate you, too.
[09:19] Diablo
    What's this?!
[09:22] Diablo
    This is a spell I don't know.
[09:24] Diablo
    It's been nothing but*
    things like this all day!
[09:27] Galford
    It's Ritual Magic designed
    to capture large monsters.
[09:31] Galford
    Even you won't be able to escape that easily.
[09:33] Alicia
    Galford,
[09:35] ---
    what is the meaning of this?
[09:37] Alicia
    Please explain yourself.
[09:39] Galford
    I'm performing my duties as Lord of Faltra.
[09:42] Galford
    I'm crushing invaders and
    protecting the people.
[09:44] Alicia
    But you're going to kill
    people who surrendered!
[09:47] Galford
    Am I?
[09:49] Galford
    It certainly doesn't look
    like they've surrendered.
[09:52] Galford
    Do you, a lone Imperial Knight,
    mean to question my military judgment?
[09:56] Alicia
    I'm going to stop you.
[10:01] Galford
    How do you plan to stop me
    when your sword has no blade?
[10:12] Rem
    What just happened?
[10:15] Diablo
    He's fast!
[10:16] Diablo
    Those movements were on a
    completely different level
[10:19] ---
    from other soldiers and adventurers!
[10:21] Diablo
    He's surpassed Human limits!
[10:25] Diablo
    He's definitely above level 100!
[10:28] Galford
    You can return to the imperial
    capital and give your report.
[10:33] Galford
    But I believe His Majesty will
    listen to the stronger person.
[10:41] Diablo
    At this rate, it won't just be Shera.
[10:43] Diablo
    Rem and Alicia are in danger, too.
[10:48] Diablo
    Feel it. Sense the flow of magic power...
[10:54] Diablo
    Don't panic.
[10:56] Diablo
    This is nothing compared
    to the Enslavement Collars.
[11:00] Diablo
    Where's the magic power centered?
[11:02] Galford
    Begin the operation.
[11:04] Galford
    Capture the princess and
    eliminate those who interfere!
[11:07] ---
    Yes, sir!
[11:12] Diablo
    I see it now!
[11:13] Diablo
    That's the center of the magic power!
[11:15] Diablo
    Hurry!
[11:24] Galford
    I'm surprised.
[11:25] Galford
    You unraveled the barrier?
[11:29] Shera
    Diablo...
[11:33] Galford
    Stand back.
[11:37] Galford
    I suppose I should have dealt with you first.
[11:41] Diablo
    You were planning an Invasion after
    I wore myself down fighting the Elves
[11:46] ---
    right from the start, weren't you?
[11:48] Galford
    That's called strategy.
[11:50] Galford
    Though I doubt an adventurer
    would understand.
[11:53] Diablo
    Hmph. I don't want to understand it.
[11:55] Galford
    Insults from an opponent
    are praise to a soldier.
[11:58] Diablo
    I'll make you face such despair that
    you won't even be able to insult me!
[12:11] Diablo
    Explosion!
[12:25] Diablo
    I need distance!
[12:26] Diablo
    This guy...
[12:27] Diablo
    He has the basic idea of never giving
    a Sorcerer an opening down pat!
[12:36] Galford
    It looks like you're considerably worn down.
[12:39] Galford
    Your movements are rather slow for a Sorcerer
[12:42] ---
    who turned back an army
    of Fallen, aren't they?
[12:44] Diablo
    Hmph. I just can't get motivated
    because you're too weak!
[12:51] Galford
    What?!
[12:52] Diablo
    There's nothing wasted.
[12:53] Diablo
    But that only makes your movements
    easier to read, Galford.
[12:58] Galford
    So you laid a trap for me?
[13:00] Diablo
    Super Mine.
[13:01] Diablo
    It's a spell planted in the ground that
    explodes when one passes over it.
[13:09] Galford
    It's been thirty years since
    anyone wounded me, Diablo.
[13:14] Diablo
    Is that so?
[13:15] Diablo
    The fact that you've never faced
    better opponents is why you'll lose.
[13:23] Diablo
    He made the call to keep me from
    reading his path. That's impressive.
[13:27] Diablo
    However!
[13:28] Diablo
    The steps used to close in on a Sorcerer,
[13:30] Diablo
    the spells used to prevent that...
[13:33] Diablo
    He has no idea
[13:34] ---
    how much time I've poured
    into researching those alone!
[13:38] Diablo
    That's the world I've come from, Galford!
[13:41] Diablo
    The man standing before you is one
    who's buried countless challengers,
[13:45] Diablo
    the Demon Lord Diablo!
[13:49] Diablo
    A slight opening!
[13:51] Diablo
    Freeze Zone!
[13:59] Diablo
    It's over, Galford!
[14:04] Diablo
    What?!
[14:06] Diablo
    Oh, no! I can't move because of my skill's recoil!
[14:09] Diablo
    He created an opening on purpose
    to draw a big move out of me!
[14:13] Diablo
    You're not bad, Galford!
[14:30] Diablo
    Omit.
[14:33] Diablo
    Lightning Bullet.
[14:36] Diablo
    That was close...
[14:37] Diablo
    I didn't think Galford was capable of
    using absolute defense Martial Arts
[14:41] ---
    that offer a perfect
    defense against attacks.
[14:45] Diablo
    That last skill he used was Heat Sonic,
    which is learned at level 120.
[14:49] Diablo
    He's the most powerful opponent I've
    faced since coming to this world.
[14:54] Galford
    So where's the killing blow?
[14:59] Galford
    I'm still alive here.
[15:03] Diablo
    Is this old guy serious?
[15:05] Diablo
    If he thinks it was a close match,
    he might come after me again.
[15:10] Diablo
    I don't want him getting fixated on me.
[15:12] ---
    I guess I should intimidate him a bit.
[15:19] Diablo
    You're so weak, I've lost interest!
[15:22] Diablo
    Know that someone like you
    will never be a match for me!
[15:26] Galford
    So you won't kill me?
[15:28] Diablo
    It looked like you risked it all to strike
    while I was frozen after a huge move.
[15:31] ---
    Too bad it didn't work.
[15:33] Diablo
    If I were a normal opponent,
    you might have won.
[15:36] Diablo
    But if you're too weak to realize that
    I factored that pause into my distance,
[15:42] ---
    then you're no threat to
    me even if left alive.
[15:46] Galford
    I could still give a report
    to His Royal Majesty
[15:49] ---
    that would be disadvantageous to you.
[15:51] Diablo
    Huh?
[15:52] Alicia
    I will not allow that to happen!
[15:56] Alicia
    Galford-sama, I'll report that you took
    action with the intent of destroying
[16:01] ---
    our peace with the surrounding nations.
[16:03] Galford
    I still think killing me would
    be much more certain.
[16:06] Diablo
    Enough!
[16:07] Diablo
    If you want to die, do it on your own.
[16:09] Diablo
    If you want to challenge me again,
    I'll take you on at any time.
[16:13] Diablo
    But if you move against me
    or my possessions again,
[16:17] Diablo
    know that I'll reduce both
    you and your land to ashes!
[16:26] Galford
    All units, withdraw!
[16:35] Rem
    I can't believe you beat Galford.
[16:37] Rem
    You really are incredible.
[16:40] Diablo
    Of course.
[16:43] Rem
    So, um, do you have any
    spare healing potions?
[16:48] Diablo
    Are you injured?
[16:49] Rem
    No, it's not for me.
[16:52] Rem
    I wanted to use them on the wounded Elves.
[16:57] Diablo
    Oh. Here.
[17:00] Rem
    You really are kind.
[17:04] Diablo
    Fool!
[17:06] Diablo
    Keep spouting nonsense, and I'll
    blast away this whole forest!
[17:09] Rem
    I can't let the forest be wiped out,
    so I'll go heal the Elves.
[17:14] Diablo
    Jeez.
[17:16] Rem
    Diablo...
[17:20] Rem
    Please take care of Shera.
[17:34] Shera
    It had to happen, right?
[17:36] Shera
    I don't understand international
    matters that well,
[17:39] Shera
    but Nii-san did something bad, after all.
[17:44] Shera
    I hated Nii-san, but...
[17:50] Shera
    But...
[17:52] Shera
    I never thought we would part like this.
[18:18] Diablo
    Three days have passed since we stopped
    the war between the Elves and Faltra.
[18:23] Diablo
    Time passes on as usual
    for everyone in the city,
[18:26] Diablo
    unaware that such danger
    had drawn close to them.
[18:30] Diablo
    Shera was silent for a long while,
[18:33] Diablo
    but thanks to Rem, she's slowly
    regaining her energy.
[18:38] Diablo
    Shortly after that was over,
[18:39] Diablo
    Alicia headed to the imperial
    capital to report the events
[18:42] ---
    to the emperor.
[18:45] Diablo
    As for Greenwood,
[18:46] Diablo
    Celsior is taking the initiative
    to explain matters.
[18:51] Diablo
    As for me...
[18:54] Diablo
    I'm as unmotivated as ever.
[18:57] Diablo
    When my Magic Points are near zero,
[18:59] ---
    I can't find the drive to do anything.
[19:02] Diablo
    It would be fine if I were just
    unmotivated, but we're broke, too.
[19:05] Diablo
    Damn that Galford...
[19:07] Diablo
    I know we cleared the quest
    to prevent war with the Elves,
[19:11] Diablo
    but since he was our client,
    and I beat him up,
[19:13] ---
    our reward was left unsettled.
[19:16] Diablo
    I'll kill that Galford!
[19:21] Diablo
    Yes?
[19:23] Sylvie
    Good afternoon, Diablo-san.
[19:26] Diablo
    Sylvie?
[19:27] Sylvie
    I heard you weren't feeling well,
[19:29] Sylvie
    so I brought you something nice.
[19:31] Diablo
    An MP Potion?
[19:32] Sylvie
    Well, something similar.
[19:35] Sylvie
    It's an alcoholic spirit that has the
    side effect of recovering Magic Points.
[19:39] Diablo
    Such a thing exists?
[19:41] Sylvie
    It's not very effective,
    so you can get it for cheap.
[19:44] Sylvie
    Above all, it tastes better than potions!
[19:47] Sylvie
    Well, care for a drink?
[19:50] Sylvie
    Cheers!
[19:52] Diablo
    Yeah.
[19:53] Diablo
    Alcohol...
[19:55] Diablo
    Alcohol, huh?
[19:57] Diablo
    I'm not that big a drinker...
[20:00] Sylvie
    Not drinking any?
[20:01] ---
    Oh, uh...
[20:03] Diablo
    Well...
[20:04] Diablo
    I guess Diablo's body is sturdy,
[20:06] Diablo
    and there wasn't any "Drunk"
    status effect in
Cross Reverie*...*
[20:12] Diablo
    So it should be fine.
[20:16] Sylvie
    Diablo-san, you must hold
    your liquor really well!
[20:21] Diablo
    Of 'ourse I do.
[20:23] Sylvie
    'Ourse?
[20:26] Diablo
    This's nothin'.
[20:30] Diablo
    I'm a Demon Lord, af'er all!
[20:34] Sylvie
    Diablo... san?
[20:38] Diablo
    Oh, a hug pfhillow, huh?
[20:43] Diablo
    This'un's made with th' nices' fabric...
[20:48] Sylvie
    Diablo-san?!
[20:49] Sylvie
    This is... not something I should be doing...
[20:53] Diablo
    This'd be worth goin' into debt for.
[20:56] Sylvie
    Hey, stop!
[20:59] Diablo
    Sumthin's pokin' me, though...
[21:02] Sylvie
    Y-You can't take that off!
[21:05] Sylvie
    If you go any further than this, I'll be mad!
[21:12] Diablo
    Mmm, so smooth.
[21:15] Sylvie
    How did this happen?
[21:19] Sylvie
    No!
[21:20] Sylvie
    Not there!
[21:21] Sylvie
    Don't do that there!
[21:23] Sylvie
    That's...
[21:37] Sylvie
    Jeez, Diablo-san...
[21:40] Sylvie
    You'd better take responsibility for this...
[21:43] Sylvie
    Diablo-san?
[21:48] Sylvie
    Jeez! At least let go of me
    before you fall asleep!
[21:51] Sylvie
    Rem-san and Shera-chan are
    going to come back to this!
[21:54] Sylvie
    Give me my clothes back!
[21:57] Sylvie
    Come on!
[23:30] Edelgard
    I sense the Demon Lord's soul.
[23:33] Alicia
    That man...
[23:34] Alicia
    That's man's true power...
[23:36] Man
    You really can tell how much someone's
    worth by the color of their innards.
