[00:06] Rem
    I can't go on any longer.
[00:09] Rem
    Go on... without...
[00:18] Shera
    Rem!
[00:18] Lumachina
    Rem-san!
[00:24] Shera
    Outside! Outside!
[00:25] Lumachina
    Is she all right?
[00:26] Diablo
    Well, it's nothing new.
[00:28] Horn
    Still, that's some awful motion sickness.
[00:32] Rem
    I can't take this!
[00:34] Horn
    Oh, Mister!
[00:35] Horn
    You can see it now!
[00:39] Diablo
    So that's the royal capital,
[00:42] Diablo
    Seven Wall.
[00:45] Soldier
    What's your business here?!
[00:47] Soldier
    A shady man with horns?
[00:50] Soldier
    You're not a Fallen, are you?!
[00:52] Diablo
    Come on, they surrounded us?
[00:55] Diablo
    Lumachina's with us,
    so I don't want any commotion here.
[00:58] Soldier
    Hey, you there, woman!
[01:01] Soldier
    Remove your hood and reveal your face!
[01:03] Diablo
    Oh, well. I'll just intimidate them a bit.
[01:08] Diablo
    If you're pointing a spear at me, I assume
    you're prepared for the consequences.
[01:15] Soldier
    Wh-Why, you...
[01:18] Lumachina
    Diablo-sama...
[01:20] Diablo
    I can't back down.
[01:22] Diablo
    Well, I have no choice now...
[01:24] Alicia
    Please wait.
[01:27] Alicia
    Could you let those people through?
[01:33] Diablo
    You're...
[01:35] Alicia
    It's been a long time.
[01:36] Alicia
    I received Rem-sama's letter, and I've
    been waiting for you, Diablo-sama.
[01:43] Diablo
    Alicia?
SIGN    Episode 8 "Visit to the Royal Capital"
[03:16] Horn
    Incredible!
[03:18] Shera
    You can see the whole capital from here!
[03:21] Horn
    It's amazing!
[03:23] Alicia
    Please use this inn however you like
    during your stay in the royal capital.
[03:27] Rem
    Um, Alicia, we appreciate your kindness...
[03:32] Rem
    But if we stay in a place like this,
    we'll run out of money fast.
[03:35] Alicia
    You needn't worry about that.
[03:38] Alicia
    Just leave it all to me.
[03:40] Rem
    Huh? Then...
[03:42] Alicia
    Yes.
[03:42] Alicia
    If Diablo-sama wished it,
    I would buy this inn outright.
[03:47] Rem
    Wh-What... did she... say?
[03:50] Lumachina
    Rem-san!
[03:51] Daiblo
    Hmm... Well said.
[03:53] Daiblo
    Damn! Just how rich is Alicia?!
[03:57] Alicia
    I apologize for the delayed
    introduction, Head Priest.
[04:02] Alicia
    I am Alicia Cristela, an Imperial Knight.
[04:05] Alicia
    It's an honor to meet you.
[04:07] Lumachina
    Thank you for your assistance at the gate.
[04:10] Alicia
    I'm glad to have been of service.
[04:13] Rose
    Excuse me, but...
[04:15] Rose
    What is your relationship to my master?
[04:19] Alicia
    And you are?
[04:20] Rose
    My entire being exists to serve my master.
[04:26] Diablo
    Sh-Shoot!
[04:28] Diablo
    Alicia is a Demon Lord worshiper
[04:30] ---
    who put our lives in danger
    to resurrect the Demon Lord.
[04:35] Diablo
    Even though she's sworn loyalty to
    me now, if Rose learns about that...
[04:40] Diablo
    Rose, you don't need to pry.
[04:42] Alicia
    If he asked me to die...
[04:44] Alicia
    If he asked me to die, then I would die.
[04:46] Alicia
    Does that explanation suffice?
[04:49] Rose
    Then it would be correct to recognize
    you as one of my master's possessions?
[04:55] Alicia
    Unless he has forsaken me.
[05:00] Rose
    Understood.
[05:02] Rose
    Then I shall I recognize you
    as one of Master's possessions.
[05:07] Alicia
    Thank you.
[05:08] Alicia
    And you must be Horn-san, then.
[05:11] Alicia
    I heard you recently joined his companions.
[05:12] Diablo
    She got past Rose so easily...
[05:13] Horn
    That's right! I'm Horn!
[05:14] Diablo
    Her communication skills are scary!
[05:18] Shera
    I can't go on any longer.
[05:20] Shera
    Farewell!
[05:22] Shera
    Thank you... for everything...
[05:28] Horn
    It hurts.
[05:29] Horn
    I can't eat any more.
[05:32] Shera
    Me neither.
[05:33] Rem
    Good grief.
[05:34] Lumachina
    Even my healing can't help with this.
[05:36] Horn
    I wanted to eat a lot so I can become big and
    strong like you, Mister, and help out more.
[05:42] Rem
    Grasswalkers will always look like children,
     even after reaching adulthood.
[05:46] Horn
    I know that's true, but...
[05:49] Diablo
    Well, just take your time
    and serve me faithfully.
[05:52] Rose
    If my master desires it,
[05:55] Rose
    then as much as I wouldn't like it,
[05:58] Rose
    there is a way to empower her.
[06:01] Horn
    Empower me?
[06:04] Rose
    If you place this treasure around your neck,
[06:06] Rose
    it will form a Master-Servant Pact
     with my master,
[06:09] Rose
    and the Servant's abilities
    will be empowered, too.
[06:12] Horn
    A Master-Servant Pact?
[06:15] Horn
    Sounds nice.
[06:16] Horn
    A pact with him, huh?
[06:19] Rem
    Hold on a minute.
[06:20] Rem
    Doesn't the servant who forges that
    pact die when the master does?
[06:25] Diablo
    Please let me go to heaven!
[06:26] Horn
    I-I'll die?!
[06:29] Rose
    What's the problem with that?
[06:31] Rose
    My master possesses unparalleled power,
[06:34] Rose
    so becoming his servant would grant
    more benefits than words can explain.
[06:39] Horn
    I'd become that powerful?
[06:40] Horn
    But I'd die...
[06:43] Rem
    Listen carefully, Horn.
[06:44] Rem
    Once you forge that pact,
    there's no way to go back.
[06:47] Rem
    Also, how will you go about finding work
[06:49] Rem
    or someone to marry you in the future
    if you have a collar around your neck?
[06:58] Rem
    What are you going to do?
[07:02] Shera
    Marriage?
[07:05] Horn
    I...
[07:07] Diablo
    What?
[07:13] Rose
    I take it back.
[07:15] Rose
    The idea of letting riffraff get close
    to my master is outrageous!
[07:20] Alicia
    I've arranged sleeping
    chambers for each of you.
[07:23] Alicia
    It might be a little cramped
    for you, Diablo-sama.
[07:26] Alicia
    Please forgive me.
[07:27] Diablo
    No, it won't be a problem.
[07:29] Diablo
    This is practically a king's bedroom.
[07:33] Diablo
    So it seems you've already
    surmised the general situation.
[07:36] Alicia
    Yes.
[07:37] Alicia
    Diablo-sama, might I draw closer to you?
[07:41] Diablo
    Yes, I'll allow it.
[07:43] Alicia
    Pardon me.
[07:47] Diablo
    Uh...
[07:48] Diablo
    She's getting this close?
[07:50] Alicia
    You've come to the royal capital
    because of Lumachina-sama, yes?
[07:54] Diablo
    Y-Yes.
[07:56] Alicia
    The king hasn't learned that
    I plotted to resurrect the Demon Lord,
[08:01] Alicia
    but I was held responsible for
    my absence during the emergency,
[08:04] Alicia
    so I'm currently under confinement.
[08:07] Alicia
    But I believe I can prove
    useful to you, Diablo-sama.
[08:11] Alicia
    Please tell me the details.
[08:15] Diablo
    She's a virgin killer!
[08:17] Diablo
    She manages to look innocent
    instead of slutty
[08:19] ---
    while making such a strong appeal
    with her feminine features!
[08:23] Diablo
    She's a true virgin killer!
[08:25] Diablo
    Alicia is to be feared!
[08:27] Rem
    What's the matter, you two?
[08:29] Horn
    Uh, the room was too big.
[08:32] Shera
    Yeah, I couldn't relax in there.
[08:35] Shera
    Want to sleep together?
[08:36] Horn
    Shall we?
[08:39] Alicia
    So the Head Cardinal, Vishos...
[08:42] Alicia
    He sought Lumachina-sama's life, too.
[08:45] Alicia
    The mortal races truly are disgusting.
[08:47] Alicia
    Even the Church that believes in God...
[08:50] Diablo
    Naturally, we'll need to make
    them pay for their crimes.
[08:53] Alicia
    Yes.
[08:54] Alicia
    I can gather evidence of their wrongdoing,
    as you've requested.
[08:58] Alicia
    But...
[09:00] Alicia
    It's unlikely we can make
    them answer for their crimes.
[09:03] Diablo
    What do you mean?
[09:04] Alicia
    The kingdom is unable to interfere
    in the Church's internal affairs.
[09:08] Alicia
    So it won't be able to sentence
    Vishos and the other Cardinals.
[09:15] Alicia
    This is why we need your power, Diablo-sama.
[09:20] Diablo
    Huh?
[09:21] Alicia
    Enact a bloody purge!
[09:23] Alicia
    Use your power to bring the
    iron hammer of justice down
[09:27] ---
    upon those fiends in human skin,
[09:29] Alicia
    and restore this world to its proper state!
[09:33] Alicia
    Bring their demise!
[09:34] Alicia
    Bring about the great demise!
[09:36] Alicia
    Please, Diablo-sama!
[09:41] Diablo
    This woman is crazy!
[09:46] Alicia
    Please forgive my rudeness.
[09:49] Alicia
    I will do everything I can
    to investigate the Church.
[09:53] Diablo
    Good.
[09:54] Diablo
    I'm kind of beat now.
[09:56] Diablo
    Time to sleep.
[10:04] Shera
    Diablo...
[10:14] Diablo
    R-Rose?!
[10:15] Rose
    Are you awake, my master?
[10:19] Diablo
    Replenishing your magic power?
[10:21] Rose
    Yes.
[10:21] Rose
    I can recover my magic power
[10:24] Rose
    by staying in the dungeon or
    staying by your side, Master.
SIGN    <<Charging>>
[10:28] Rose
    Up until now, I've received magic power
    a bit at a time by staying near you,
SIGN    <<Charging>>
SIGN    <<Charging>>
SIGN    <<Charging>>
[10:33] Rose
    but I finally...
[10:34] Rose
    Beep, beep!
[10:35] Rose
    Charge is currently at 30%.
[10:38] Rose
    We recommend switching to low-power mode.
[10:41] Rose
    ...reached that point.
[10:43] Diablo
    Why didn't you say something sooner?
[10:46] Rose
    I didn't want to burden you,
[10:49] Rose
    so every night, I waited
    until after you went to bed
[10:52] Rose
    and quietly rested at your side,
[10:55] Rose
    but apparently I don't
    recharge when you're asleep.
[10:58] Diablo
    You've been there this entire time?!
[11:01] Rose
    So I...
[11:03] Rose
    I...
[11:05] Rose
    I...
[11:07] Rose
    propose high-speed charging!
[11:10] Diablo
    "High-speed"? What do you mean?
[11:13] Rose
    Well, in just 30 minutes of action, I can
    recover a week's worth of Master's energy—
[11:19] Rose
    I mean, magic power.
[11:22] Diablo
    Okay, what do we need to do?
[11:25] Rose
    I-I...
[11:29] Rose
    I'll receive magic power through contact!
[11:32] Diablo
    Contact? All right.
[11:34] Diablo
    So where do we do this?
[11:35] Diablo
    Does the bed work?
[11:37] Rose
    No, the bed is...
[11:38] Diablo
    Shit!
[11:40] Diablo
    I can't believe I just invited
    a woman to join me in bed!
[11:42] Diablo
    And she shot me down, too!
[11:44] Rose
    I'm heavy, so if I climbed into bed, it would...
[11:47] Diablo
    R-Right, her body is mechanical.
[11:51] Diablo
    All right. Tell me what
    you would like me to do.
[11:54] Rose
    Th-Then if you'll pardon me...
[12:01] Diablo
    H-Hey, Rose?!
[12:02] Diablo
    What are you...
[12:09] Rose
    Master, please charge me like this.
[12:14] Rose
    Please bless me with your magic power.
[12:18] Diablo
    Rose, do you really need that?!
[12:21] Rose
    I don't have any experience either,
    so I'm not sure...
[12:26] Rose
    B-But if I could have a part of your
    body make contact with my own, then...
[12:33] Diablo
    A p-part? Which part?
[12:39] Diablo
    All right! Prepare yourself!
[12:45] Diablo
    S-So soft!
[12:48] Diablo
    Where?
[12:49] Diablo
    Where do I...
[12:53] Diablo
    Here? Is it here?
[12:56] Rose
    A-A little further down!
[12:59] Diablo
    I-It's awfully narrow.
[13:02] Diablo
    Here?!
[13:05] Rose
    Master, go deeper!
[13:08] Diablo
    Deeper, right?
[13:10] Diablo
    Just do it the same way as when
    I poured magic power into Rem!
[13:17] Diablo
    Master, you're hitting it!
[13:22] Diablo
    Okay, here I go, Rose!
[13:24] Rose
    Okay!
[13:27] Rose
    My master!
[13:36] Diablo
    H-Hey, Rose, what's wrong?!
[13:39] Rose
    Beep, beep.
[13:40] Rose
    Charge is currently at 120%.
[13:45] Diablo
    Good grief...
[13:46] Diablo
    All filled up now, Rose?
[13:48] Diablo
    Good for you.
[13:51] Alicia
    Diablo-sama,
[13:53] Alicia
    these are records of the Church's
    financial dealings for these past few years,
[13:57] Alicia
    and evidence of their various wrongdoings.
[13:59] Diablo
    You gathered this much? How?
[14:02] Alicia
    Well, I bought off the White Masks.
[14:07] Lumachina
    The White Masks?
[14:08] Diablo
    What are those?
[14:10] Lumachina
    They're the believers of great faith
    who are permitted to enter the sanctuary.
[14:16] Lumachina
    You really bought off those people?
[14:18] Alicia
    Unfortunately.
[14:20] Alicia
    When I told them I would buy evidence
    of bribery, many of the White Masks...
[14:25] Alicia
    According to these documents,
    Vishos and those serving under him
[14:28] Alicia
    have been using a majority of the donations
    from believers as their personal funds.
[14:32] Rem
    That's awful.
[14:33] Alicia
    That's not all, either.
[14:35] Alicia
    Just as Vishos has tried
    to kill Lumachina-sama,
[14:39] Alicia
    he has killed many who
    got in their way already.
[14:44] Shera
    Th-That's terrible!
[14:45] Shera
    Unforgivable, even!
[14:46] Lumachina
    God's...
[14:48] Lumachina
    God's own servants have
    taken the lives of others?
[14:53] Lumachina
    And yet I...
[14:55] Lumachina
    I never knew about any of it.
[15:00] Rem
    Lumachina...
[15:02] Lumachina
    I'm mad!
[15:04] Lumachina
    I'm mad, I'm mad, I'm mad...
[15:07] Lumachina
    I'm mad!
[15:08] Alicia
    Now do you understand?
[15:11] Alicia
    The mortal races are disgusting things.
[15:14] Alicia
    Ruin is the only path to their salvation!
[15:18] Alicia
    This world needs a purge brought
    about by a Demon Lord!
[15:21] Alicia
    Now bring the bloody purge—
[15:22] Diablo
    Stop it.
[15:25] Alicia
    P-Pardon me.
[15:26] Alicia
    But Diablo-sama,
[15:28] Alicia
    even though we have all this evidence,
     the law cannot punish him.
[15:31] Alicia
    We need your power to...
[15:34] Diablo
    Good grief... I guess it's come to this.
[15:37] Diablo
    Things might get a bit rough.
[15:40] Horn
    Our turn's finally up!
[15:41] Rem
    Facing the church, huh?
[15:43] Shera
    Yeah! We can't let them do this!
[15:47] Lumachina
    Please wait, Diablo-sama.
[15:51] Lumachina
    Would you please grant
    me just one more chance?
[15:55] Diablo
    What do you intend to do?
[15:57] Lumachina
    I'm going to march to the Cathedral
    with this evidence in hand,
[16:01] Lumachina
    confront Vishos and his subordinates,
[16:04] Lumachina
    and pronounce their excommunication.
[16:07] Diablo
    She still insists on punishing
    them through proper means, huh?
[16:11] Diablo
    That's just the kind of woman she is.
[16:14] Lumachina
    Diablo-sama...
[16:16] Diablo
    Very well. You can give it a shot.
[16:19] Alicia
    Head Priest,
[16:21] Alicia
    this is as far as I can go with you.
[16:24] Alicia
    Please allow me to ask one last question.
[16:27] Alicia
    Do you believe the mortal
    races are worth saving?
[16:33] Lumachina
    That is for God to decide.
[16:37] Lumachina
    But it makes me happy when people are
    able to live with a sense of salvation.
[16:45] Alicia
    I see.
[16:47] Alicia
    The church is six blocks away from the inn.
[16:51] Alicia
    These are the outfits worn by believers.
[16:55] Alicia
    If you wear them, you should be able to
    get close to the sanctuary without trouble.
[17:00] Lumachina
    Once we cross this bridge,
    we'll be in the church's district.
[17:04] Lumachina
    While there's no roof,
[17:05] Lumachina
    it's as holy a place as the
    inside of the cathedral.
[17:11] Lumachina
    Those who live here, and those who work here,
[17:14] Lumachina
    are all ardent believers.
[17:18] Shera
    That's the cathedral?
[17:20] Horn
    It's more lackluster than I expected.
[17:22] Horn
    Mister?
[17:24] Diablo
    No, look up.
[17:27] Three
    Huh?!
[17:30] Shera
    Th-That's the sanctuary?!
[17:32] Horn
    I-It's floating! It's floating!
[17:36] Lumachina
    Vishos and his subordinates are
    up there in the sky, too.
[17:39] Diablo
    How do we get there?
[17:40] Lumachina
    We'll use the floating passage.
[17:42] Sanro
    Pardon me, but are you pilgrims?
[17:46] Sanro
    Please, allow me to offer you some prayers.
[17:48] Diablo
    Sorry, but we're in a hurry.
[17:50] Sanro
    Huh?
[17:51] Sanro
    You're turning down prayers?
[17:57] Diablo
    Sh-Shit!
[17:58] Diablo
    I responded like he was one of those
    marketers outside a train station!
[18:03] Rem
    Please forgive our rudeness.
[18:05] Rem
    We've just traveled here from
    the old Demon Lord's Domain.
[18:09] Rem
    We're just so eager, you see.
[18:11] Sanro
    That's quite the long journey!
[18:14] Sanro
    Everyone!
[18:15] Sanro
    Let us offer prayers to
    these faithful believers
[18:17] ---
    who have visited from the
    old Demon Lord's Domain,
[18:19] Sanro
    and build our faith together!
[18:22] Diablo
    H-Hey!
[18:24] Lumachina
    Diablo-sama...
[18:26] Lumachina
    To the faithful, prayers are
    as important as breathing.
[18:31] Lumachina
    Please...
[18:32] Believers
    God, grant these people your blessings.
[18:32] Believers
    Let your love and mercy be with them.
[18:36] Diablo
    Well, now I'm stuck...
[18:49] Lumachina
    Vishos...
[18:50] Believer
    Vishos-sama?!
[18:51] Believer
    It's Vishos-sama!
[18:55] Sanro
    Vishos-sama?
[19:06] Vishos
    Welcome home.
[19:07] Vishos
    We've been waiting for you,
[19:10] Vishos
    Head Priest Lumachina.
[19:19] Sanro
    Th-This woman's the Head Priest?
[19:26] Believer
    The Head Priest!
[19:28] Believer
    Oh!
[19:29] Believer
    What a miracle!
[19:30] Believer
    The Head Priest!
[19:32] Lumachina
    Vishos, someone tried to kill me
    when I went to Zircon Tower.
[19:37] Vishos
    That's terrible!
[19:39] Lumachina
    That man was the Paladin, Gewalt,
[19:43] Lumachina
    and Vishos, that assassin was sent by you!
[19:48] Lumachina
    And now, in the carriage behind me,
     I've gathered evidence
[19:53] Lumachina
    that all of you have killed many others,
    along with financial records of your bribery.
[19:57] Lumachina
    So I hereby pronounce:
[19:59] Lumachina
    Head Cardinal Vishos and those
    Cardinals serving under him
[20:06] Lumachina
    are hereby excommunicated.
[20:09] Believer
    E-Excommunicated?!
[20:10] Believer
    Vishos-sama is?!
[20:11] Believer
    What?!
[20:13] Diablo
    Well said.
[20:15] Vishos
    How deplorable.
[20:18] Vishos
    It would seem the duties of
    Head Priest were too much
[20:22] ---
    for a young, growing woman who wants to play.
[20:25] Vishos
    After abandoning your duties,
[20:27] Vishos
    engaging in all manner of debauchery,
[20:29] Vishos
    and returning with such
    shady individuals in tow,
[20:33] Vishos
    you've created such fake evidence
    to attempt to cast us out?
[20:37] Lumachina
    What?!
[20:39] Lumachina
    You would call my claims lies and falsehoods?
[20:41] Lumachina
    Your wrongdoing—
[20:43] Vishos
    There's no way such things could happen!
[20:46] Vishos
    If those things were to happen,
[20:48] Vishos
    the church would lose all significance,
[20:50] Vishos
    and the faith built up by our believers
    would lose all meaning, would it not?!
[20:58] Lumachina
    No matter how great the cost, you must
    repent for the sins you've committed!
[21:03] Vishos
    Absolutely right, Head Priest—
    no, former Head Priest!
[21:09] Vishos
    You've abandoned your duties
    and hidden your whereabouts!
[21:13] Vishos
    Now you seek to destroy the very church
    itself to cover your sloth and debauchery!
[21:20] Lumachina
    H-How could you...
[21:22] Shera
    R-Rem...
[21:24] Rem
    Yeah, I don't like where this is going.
[21:26] Rem
    Diablo...
[21:28] Diablo
    Lumachina...
[21:30] Diablo
    If you get emotional now, you'll lose.
[21:33] Diablo
    Bear with it.
[21:35] Diablo
    Don't.
[21:36] Diablo
    Don't cry...
[21:44] Vishos
    Lumachina Weselia!
[21:46] Vishos
    You should resign from your
    position as Head Priest
[21:48] Vishos
    and repent for your sin
    of abandoning your duty!
[21:53] Lumachina
    B-But...
[21:55] Vishos
    Now!
[21:56] Vishos
    Seize this sinner and her companions!
[22:11] Horn
    Th-Th-There are so many Paladins!
[22:13] Horn
    Wh-Wh-What do we do?!
[22:15] Vishos
    My believers, this is a great act of faith.
[22:19] Vishos
    Now, seize those people!
[22:27] Rem
    L-Let go of me!
[22:29] Shera
    Diablo!
[22:31] Horn
    I-I can't!
[22:33] Horn
    I can't take this!
[22:41] Diablo
    I don't want to, but I guess
     I'll mow them down.
[22:44] Lumachina
    You mustn't.
[22:45] Diablo
    You lost the debate!
[22:47] Diablo
    That only leaves fighting!
[22:50] Lumachina
    Even so, we can't allow blood
    to be spilled at the cathedral!
[23:00] Diablo
    Are you sure about this?
[23:01] Lumachina
    If it will save everyone else...
[23:05] Diablo
    You would say that.
[23:07] Diablo
    Then at least go on your own two feet!
[23:11] Diablo
    Lightning Strike!
[23:18] Diablo
    If you don't want to die,
    then make way for her!
[23:26] Lumachina
    Thank you for the prayers
    you offered earlier.
[23:30] Lumachina
    May God's blessings be upon all of you, as well.
[23:55] Vishos
    Soon even God will be within my grasp!
