[00:02] Adventurer
    Help me!
[00:03] Adventurer
    Somebody help me!
[00:10] Alicia
    How awful...
[00:12] Alicia
    How can the mortal races be this awful?
[00:17] Alicia
    The mortal races should just be wiped out.
[00:24] Saddler
    So beautiful...
[00:26] Saddler
    Everyone worshiping the Demon Lord
    in this village has found salvation.
[00:31] Saddler
    What a beautiful sight.
[00:35] Saddler
    You truly can tell how much a person's
    worth by the color of their innards.

[02:21] Servant
    Alicia-sama?
[02:22] Servant
    You have returned?
[02:25] Alicia
    Yes. It's good to see you again.
[02:27] Servant
    I see you're as busy as ever,
[02:30] Servant
    but please don't push yourself too hard.
[02:32] Alicia
    It's an Imperial Knight's duty to
    devote themselves to the people.
[02:42] Servant
    P-Pardon me, then!
[02:52] Saddler
    My, if it isn't Cristela-dono.
[02:55] Saddler
    Have you finished reporting to
    His Majesty about the Greenwood incident?
[03:00] Alicia
    Yes, without issue.
[03:02] Alicia
    Though it's hard to predict what will
    come of the Kingdom of Greenwood,
[03:07] ---
    His Majesty told me that matter is now closed.
[03:10] Saddler
    That's good to hear.
[03:12] Saddler
    Peace is best.
[03:13] Alicia
    How about you, Saddler-sama?
[03:15] ---
    I heard that you were headed
    to a village in the south.
[03:19] Saddler
    Every last one of the
    villagers found salvation.
[03:26] Alicia
    Saddler-sama...
[03:27] Alicia
    Do you hate the mortal races?
[03:30] Saddler
    Heavens, no!
[03:31] Saddler
    I love them.
[03:33] Saddler
    They're the descendants of
    those blessed by the Gods.
[03:37] Saddler
    Which is precisely why
[03:39] ---
    I cannot forgive those who
    worship the Demon Lord.
[03:46] Alicia
    Pardon me.
[03:48] Saddler
    Will you be heading back to Faltra?
[03:51] Alicia
    There are still a few
    matters I must attend to.
[03:54] Saddler
    Actually, I'll be heading to Faltra, as well.
[04:01] Saddler
    The Head Priest, Lumachina-sama,
    revealed a prophecy.
[04:05] Alicia
    A prophecy?
[04:06] Saddler
    Yes. "There are omens of the Demon
    Lord's revival in the western city."
[04:10] Saddler
    I'm heading off to investigate
    that, as a Paladin.
[04:14] Alicia
    Signs of the Demon Lord's revival?
[04:33] Shera
    Look, look! I summoned it!
[04:35] Rem
    Of course you did. You have me teaching you.
[04:38] Shera
    It's so cute!
[04:40] Rem
    This is a Turkey Shot.
[04:42] Rem
    To be blunt, it's not a strong Summon.
[04:45] Shera
    Huh? It's not?
[04:46] Rem
    Its special ability is Synchro Sight.
[04:50] Rem
    It's a power that allows you to
    see everything the Summon sees.
[04:53] Shera
    That's useful!
[04:55] Rem
    Using it consumes magic power,
    so you can't use it very long.
[04:58] Rem
    It might be useful when you're lost, but...
[05:01] Shera
    That's lame.
[05:03] Rem
    There are all kinds of Summons,
[05:05] Rem
    but ultimately, the ones that are tough and
    have powerful attacks are the strongest.
[05:08] Shera
    I see.
[05:10] Rem
    Well, how about it?
[05:12] Rem
    There isn't much need to perform the
    Enslavement Ritual with this one, but...
[05:16] Shera
    Since I summoned it, I'll forge the pact.
[05:21] Diablo
    What's that?
[05:23] Shera
    I don't know, but it's necessary.
[05:26] Rem
    It's a magic stone needed to forge
    the pact in the Enslavement Ritual.
[05:29] Rem
    I'll give you one, too, Diablo.
[05:34] Diablo
    These weren't in Cross Reverie*.
[05:37] Shera
    I command you in the name
    of Shera L. Greenwood...
[05:40] Shera
    Answer my call, become mine, and obey me.
[05:55] Shera
    I did it!
[05:56] Rem
    I'm glad the magic wasn't reflected.
[05:59] Shera
    I don't want to be enslaved to a Turkey Shot!
[06:03] Diablo
    About that Turkey Shot...
[06:05] Diablo
    It might actually be an
    interesting match for you.
[06:09] Shera
    Huh?
[06:14] Diablo
    There!
[06:17] Diablo
    Well?
[06:19] Diablo
    Can you see where the coin fell?
[06:21] Shera
    No...
[06:22] Diablo
    Now, try sending your Summon out.
[06:25] Shera
    Uh, Turkey Shot, go find the coin.
[06:42] Shera
    Incredible!
[06:43] Shera
    I feel like I'm the one flying!
[06:53] Shera
    There it is!
[06:54] Diablo
    Now shoot an arrow at it.
[06:56] Shera
    Sure!
[07:04] Shera
    I hit it!
[07:05] Rem
    Incredible!
[07:07] Diablo
    As you can see, depending on how you use it,
[07:09] ---
    you'll be able to shoot enemies in
    locations you can't see yourself.
[07:12] Rem
    I never knew it could be used like that.
[07:14] Rem
    That's impressive, Diablo!
[07:18] Diablo
    I just saw that on a guide site a while ago...
[07:21] Shera
    Thanks, Diablo!
[07:23] Shera
    I thought I'd gotten stuck with a bad draw,
[07:27] ---
    but now I really like it!
[07:33] Rem
    What's the matter?
[07:35] Shera
    It's not coming from the bird...
[07:40] Rem
    Shera?
[07:41] Shera
    Why don't you take a bath?
[07:44] Rem
    What do you mean?!
[07:45] Shera
    Well, you think so too, right, Diablo?
[07:48] Shera
    That Rem smells!
[07:49] Diablo
    Huh?! What?!
[07:50] Rem
    If you don't cut it out,
    I'm going to get angry!
[07:53] Shera
    Oh, in that case...
[07:55] Shera
    Let's all bathe together!
[08:05] Diablo
    B-By "bathing"... you meant without swimsuits?!
[08:08] Shera
    What's a "swimsuit"?
[08:09] Diablo
    For real?!
[08:11] Rem
    It's only natural to take off
    your clothes when bathing.
[08:14] Rem
    Even if you can see someone's body,
    it's proper manners not to look.
[08:19] Shera
    Come on, Diablo, hurry up
    and take yours off, too!
[08:23] Diablo
    I don't care for this bathing activity of yours.
[08:27] Diablo
    You two should get rid of
    the smell by yourselves.
[08:30] Both
    I don't smell!
[08:36] Rem
    I can't believe you.
[08:38] Rem
    You really are a thoughtless person.
[08:40] Rem
    Pantherians' sweat doesn't smell, you know.
[08:43] Shera
    Really?
[08:44] Rem
    It doesn't smell, and it's not salty, either!
[08:49] Rem
    What are you doing?!
[08:51] Shera
    Lick, lick, lick!
[08:53] Rem
    Hey... No! Stop!
[08:54] Shera
    You're right. It isn't salty.
[08:57] Rem
    I told you it wasn't!
[09:00] Shera
    Want to try licking my sweat?
[09:02] Rem
    I'm not into that!
[09:04] Shera
    Then I'll lick it.
[09:06] Rem
    Stop that, you fat elf!
[09:09] Shera
    That's not fat!
[09:13] Rem
    Their jiggling is annoying!
[09:14] Shera
    You're not allowed to pinch the tips!
[09:17] Rem
    Hey! Where are you licking me?!
[09:20] Diablo
    I want to turn around!
[09:22] Diablo
    I'm not brave enough to stare,
[09:23] Diablo
    but I want to burn this scene into my eyes
[09:25] ---
    and save it in my heart's*
    important documents folder!
[09:28] Diablo
    Maybe...
[09:29] Diablo
    Just a little peek...
[09:31] Diablo
    I'm sorry!
[09:33] Rem
    Are you a Fallen?!
[09:35] Shera
    R-Rem?
[09:39] Diablo
    You're Edelgard!
[09:41] Diablo
    She still hasn't learned her lesson?
[09:44] Diablo
    What have you come here for?!
[09:46] Edelgard
    I won't fight today.
[09:49] Edelgard
    I've come to talk.
[09:52] Shera
    Rem!
[09:53] Diablo
    Talk?
[09:55] Edelgard
    A certain person informed me.
[09:58] Edelgard
    And now that I've touched her, I'm certain.
[10:03] Edelgard
    I sense the Demon Lord's soul.
[10:09] Diablo
    She's able to sense Demon Lord
    Krebskulm within Rem?
[10:13] Shera
    What?
[10:14] Shera
    Rem, what's she talking about?
[10:17] Shera
    I don't like being the
    only one kept in the dark.
[10:20] Shera
    Please?
[10:25] Rem
    The...
[10:27] Rem
    The soul of Demon Lord Krebskulm
    is sealed inside me.
[10:34] Shera
    Huh?
[10:38] Shera
    So that's what was going on.
[10:41] Rem
    I'm sorry I didn't tell you about it.
[10:43] Rem
    But I didn't want to make you bear
    the weight of this secret, as well.
[10:51] Rem
    Shera?
[10:52] Shera
    I may be weak...
[10:54] Shera
    But I want to help you
    when you're in trouble!
[10:58] Shera
    We're friends, after all!
[11:00] Shera
    It must have been tough
    for you all this time.
[11:02] Shera
    I'm sorry I didn't realize it.
[11:06] Rem
    Thank you... so much.
[11:10] Edelgard
    You want to defeat the Demon Lord.
[11:13] Edelgard
    Is that true?
[11:17] Rem
    It's true.
[11:19] Edelgard
    Hmm...
[11:20] Rem
    I have a question for you, as well.
[11:23] Rem
    I always thought I would be
    killed if a Fallen found out
[11:26] ---
    where the Demon Lord's soul was...
[11:30] Edelgard
    The Demon Lord is... delicate?
[11:32] Edelgard
    You can't just break the vessel.
    There's more missing.
[11:36] Edelgard
    So I won't kill you.
[11:38] Diablo
    Do you know of a way to completely
    revive the Demon Lord?
[11:42] Edelgard
    I do.
[11:44] Diablo
    Oh?
[11:45] Edelgard
    The resurrection ritual
    poses no risk to her life.
[11:49] Edelgard
    I won't kill her.
[11:51] Edelgard
    It's more like... she will be treasured
[11:53] ---
    as the mother of the Demon Lord.
[11:58] Edelgard
    You don't believe what I've said.
[12:04] Edelgard
    Then I'll teach you the ritual.
[12:07] Edelgard
    You do it, and we Fallen won't touch you.
[12:10] Edelgard
    How's that?
[12:12] Diablo
    Rem wants to release the seal
    on the Demon Lord Krebskulm
[12:15] ---
    and settle matters for good.
[12:17] Diablo
    It's bad luck that Edelgard discovered us,
[12:20] ---
    but our interests are the same as far as
    wanting the Demon Lord's soul out of Rem.
[12:25] Diablo
    The question is whether or not
    I can beat Krebskulm afterward.
[12:30] Shera
    Diablo?
[12:32] Diablo
    Hmph. Very well.
[12:35] Diablo
    Teach me this ritual.
[12:37] Diablo
    I'll help you revive this Demon Lord.
[12:40] Diablo
    Then I'll turn around and pulverize
    that Demon Lord impostor!
[12:45] Edelgard
    The Demon Lord is the real thing.
[12:48] Edelgard
    That would be impossible for you.
[12:50] Diablo
    Have you forgotten my power?
[13:03] Edelgard
    I'll be waiting for you three days from now,
[13:06] ---
    on the night of the full moon,
    at Starfall Tower.
[13:09] Edelgard
    We'll conduct the ritual there.
[13:11] Diablo
    Very well.
[13:12] Diablo
    We've come to terms, Rem.
[13:15] Diablo
    Now we'll be able to change
    this cursed fate of yours.
[13:19] Diablo
    Three days from now,
    I'll settle things for you.
[13:36] Shera
    Are you really going tonight?
[13:46] Rem
    Alicia-san!
[13:47] Alicia
    Everyone, I have just returned
    from the imperial capital.
[13:50] Rem
    I'm glad to see you had a safe journey.
[13:53] Diablo
    How did you know we'd be here?
[13:55] Diablo
    We only entered this shop by chance.
[13:58] Alicia
    Diablo-sama...
[14:00] Alicia
    Please return to the inn at once.
[14:02] Diablo
    Huh?
[14:05] Diablo
    What's the meaning of this, Alicia?
[14:07] Rem
    Did something happen at the imperial capital?
[14:10] Alicia
    A Paladin, Saddler, is here
    in this town right now.
[14:14] Shera
    Is that person dangerous?
[14:15] Alicia
    I believe his level as a Knight is over 100.
[14:19] ---
    Oh?
[14:20] Diablo
    If he's over 100, then he's
    on par with Galford or better.
[14:24] Diablo
    Paladins never came after
    me for a battle in the game,
[14:28] ---
    so I don't know their stats.
[14:31] Alicia
    Also...
[14:32] Alicia
    If Saddler believes that you
    might be Demon Lord worshipers,
[14:36] Alicia
    he'll put you through awful torture.
[14:38] Shera
    Torture?
[14:39] Alicia
    Yes.
[14:40] Alicia
    He'll drag it out until you confess
    to worshiping the Demon Lord.
[14:43] Diablo
    Forget worshiper... I've proclaimed
    myself an actual Demon Lord!
[14:46] ---
    We'll probably be on super bad terms!
[14:49] Alicia
    So I'd like to have you all remain
    indoors as much as possible
[14:53] ---
    until Saddler leaves town.
[14:55] Diablo
    Shutting myself in is my forte!
[14:58] Rem
    Still, I doubt Diablo would
    lose to that Paladin.
[15:02] Alicia
    Of course, I'm well aware
    of Diablo-sama's abilities.
[15:07] Alicia
    However, that man...
[15:10] Alicia
    That man's true power is...
[15:17] Saddler
    I've been looking for you, Cristela-dono.
[15:20] Saddler
    I was wondering where you had gone off to.
[15:24] Alicia
    I wanted to say hello to several
    adventurers I worked with before.
[15:29] Saddler
    Is that so?
[15:31] Saddler
    Nice to meet you.
[15:33] Saddler
    I'm Saddler, a Paladin of the
    imperial capital's Orthodox Church.
[15:37] Saddler
    Who might you be?
[15:41] Diablo
    We have an important mission tonight.
[15:43] Diablo
    We don't have time to
    provoke him into a fight.
[15:46] Diablo
    I need to act normal and keep
    from saying anything I shouldn't.
[15:49] Diablo
    I am Diablo, a Demon Lord from another world!
[15:54] Diablo
    I acted too normal!
[16:01] Saddler
    I've heard there were many funny
    people among the rural adventurers,
[16:04] Saddler
    but a Demon Lord?
[16:06] Saddler
    That is priceless!
[16:09] Alicia
    Diablo-sama truly loves to jest.
[16:13] Saddler
    Even if it is a joke,
[16:14] Saddler
    the fact that you're being friendly with
    someone calling himself a Demon Lord
[16:18] Saddler
    is a problem I can't overlook.
[16:21] Alicia
    These are adventurers who helped me.
[16:24] Alicia
    There's nothing about them to be ashamed of.
[16:28] Saddler
    You say they have nothing to hide?
[16:30] Alicia
    Are you planning to torture me?
[16:33] Saddler
    I don't know.
[16:39] Rem
    This makes no sense.
[16:41] Rem
    Do you have a problem with us
    seeing Alicia Cristela-dono?
[16:49] Saddler
    Know your place, slave.
[16:52] Rem
    I am no slave!
[16:54] Saddler
    If you're too rude,
    you'll face divine judgment.
[16:59] Rem
    You should be apologizing
    for your rudeness yourself.
[17:01] Rem
    Alicia-dono's...
[17:05] Shera
    Rem?
[17:07] Shera
    Rem?!
[17:07] Alicia
    Rem-sama!
[17:08] Shera
    Rem!
[17:10] Saddler
    That was the work of the Gods.
[17:11] Saddler
    It's a power the Gods granted
    me because of my faith.
[17:15] Shera
    Rem! Hang in there, Rem!
[17:18] Diablo
    What's this? What's going on?
[17:21] Diablo
    There were no works of the Gods in the game!
[17:24] Diablo
    What am I supposed to do?!
[17:26] Diablo
    No...
[17:28] Diablo
    That thing wrapped around Rem...
[17:30] Diablo
    That's...
[17:31] Diablo
    magic power?!
[17:33] Diablo
    That's quite the stupid stunt
    you've pulled, small fry!
[17:36] Saddler
    Small fry?
[17:37] Diablo
    You call this divine punishment?
[17:38] Diablo
    It's just a simple spell!
[17:44] Shera
    Rem!
[17:45] Alicia
    Rem-sama?!
[17:46] Saddler
    You, a mere Demon, would insult a Paladin?
[17:50] Alicia
    Rem-sama! Please hang in there!
[17:54] Rem
    Alicia-san...
[17:57] Alicia
    Thank goodness.
[17:59] Saddler
    You question the power of the Gods?
[18:02] Saddler
    Then you can pay through
    divine punishment, as well.
[18:05] Diablo
    You're still claiming that?
[18:06] Diablo
    Stupid magic like that won't work on me.
[18:10] Saddler
    You foolish unbeliever!
[18:13] Saddler
    You can repent as a stone!
[18:22] Saddler
    Wh-What?!
[18:39] Diablo
    Hmph. Cement Lock, huh?
[18:42] Diablo
    That's a negative status Earth spell.
[18:47] Alicia
    This is Magic Reflection?
[18:51] Alicia
    It truly was a spell, then.
[18:54] Diablo
    Most likely, it was cast using Subtle Chant.
[18:56] Diablo
    It's a skill you can learn
[18:58] ---
    after reaching level 60 as a Sorcerer.
[19:01] Diablo
    It lets you use magic without
    speaking the spell's name.
[19:06] Alicia
    Will the Petrification wear off?
[19:09] Diablo
    It depends on the caster's level,
[19:11] Diablo
    but eventually the magic power
    will dissipate, and he'll be free.
[19:15] Diablo
    Are you all right, Rem?
[19:17] Rem
    Yes.
[19:18] Rem
    You saved me again, though.
[19:28] Alicia
    Are you truly sure it was
    okay to let Saddler go?
[19:32] Diablo
    Are you saying it would
    have been better to kill him?
[19:39] Diablo
    Huh? Seriously?
[19:44] Diablo
    I have no interest in whether
    small fry live or die.
[19:47] Diablo
    If he challenges me again,
    I won't show mercy on him.
[19:54] Alicia
    You're right.
[19:55] Alicia
    I guess I was worried over nothing.
[20:09] Shera
    It's almost time.
[20:11] Rem
    Yes.
[20:14] Diablo
    Let's go to Starfall Tower.
[20:20] Shera
    What's the matter?
[20:22] Rem
    Maybe we ought to tell her.
[20:25] Diablo
    Tell Alicia?
[20:28] Shera
    I think that's okay.
[20:31] Shera
    Alicia-san's a nice person,
[20:33] Shera
    so I'm sure she'll understand.
[20:37] Diablo
    I'm against it.
[20:39] Diablo
    Alicia is an Imperial Knight.
[20:41] Diablo
    Given her position, she wouldn't
    overlook the Demon Lord's revival.
[20:44] Rem
    I understand that, but...
[20:49] Rem
    Even so, I want to trust Alicia-san.
[20:53] Rem
    She's my friend now, just like you and Shera.
[21:04] Alicia
    I see...
[21:06] Alicia
    You must have suffered a long time.
[21:10] Alicia
    It must have been hard
    for you confess this to me.
[21:14] Alicia
    I'll help you as much as I can.
[21:16] Alicia
    So there's no need to bear
    this burden all by yourself.
[21:19] Alicia
    We're friends, after all.
[21:23] Rem
    Thank you, Alicia-san.
[21:31] Diablo
    This feels kind of cheap.
[21:34] Diablo
    Something's not right.
[21:35] Diablo
    What is this uneasy feeling in my chest?
[21:39] Diablo
    No, no!
[21:41] Diablo
    My poor communication skills
    and lack of friends
[21:43] ---
    just make it seem that way
    to me, that's all. Yeah.
[21:55] Edelgard
    The Demon Lord's resurrection
[21:58] Edelgard
    is nigh.
[23:30] Krebskulm
    Are you the ones who woke
    me from my slumber?
[23:33] Diablo
    That's the Demon Lord?
[23:34] Ourou
    This incomplete Demon Lord must perish!
