[00:01] Elephas
    Let me out! I'm begging you!
[00:03] Sorcerers
    Shut up, Elephas!
[00:06] Elephas
    The imperial capital is holding our
    women and children hostage!
[00:09] Elephas
    You would sacrifice them for your cause?!
[00:11] Sorcerers
    I don't want to hear that from a traitorous
    dog that wags its tail for the dowager empress!
[00:14] Sorcerers
    We'll control the demon king in your
    stead and attack the imperial capital!
[00:22] Aileen
    What are you going to do now?
[00:25] Elephas
    Lady Aileen.
[00:26] Aileen
    So they were planning a coup d'état.
[00:30] Aileen
    If you don't stop them, the Levi
    family really will go extinct.
[00:34] Elephas
    It's just like Lady Lilia said.
    The future can't be changed.
[00:39] Aileen
    Lady Lilia? So you are on Lady Lilia's side.
[00:44] Elephas
    No, the dowager empress is my true master.
[00:49] Elephas
    I just have a... one-sided
    affection for Lady Lilia.
[00:54] Elephas
    Why are you looking at me
     like I'm something dirty?!
[00:56] Aileen
    It's nothing. Continue.
[01:01] Elephas
    I first spoke with Lady Lilia half a year ago.
[01:05] Aileen
    Wait, never mind.
[01:06] Aileen
    I bet she made your heart race with words like,
[01:09] Aileen
    "It's so sad to see you working
    so hard for nothing!"
[01:13] Aileen
    Too easy.
[01:15] Elephas
    Please don't destroy my treasured
    memories so offhandedly.
[01:20] Aileen
    So, she told you the Levi family would
    be destroyed at the rate things are going?
[01:25] Elephas
    Exactly.
[01:28] Aileen
    I see.
[01:29] Elephas
    She was also able to regain the
    holy sword she had once lost.
[01:35] Elephas
    I borrowed the holy sword from her, and...
[01:39] Elephas
    Everything is my fault.
[01:42] Aileen; Internal
    Lady Lilia got me.
[01:45] Aileen; Internal
    She pulled Elephas to her side and had him
    act differently than the original game.
[01:51] Elephas
    Right now, I don't have enough magic
    power to get out of this cell.
[01:54] Aileen
    What happened to your magic?
[01:56] Elephas
    You stole it all with your holy sword!
[02:01] Elephas
    And, as luck would have it,
    we fell into my homeland.
[02:05] Aileen
    I see. The holy sword absorbed your magic...
[02:09] Aileen
    Is that why I have so much energy?
[02:11] Elephas
    Huh?
[02:29] Aileen
    Well, it seems I have enough
    strength to save your homeland.
[02:33] Aileen
    Got anything to say?
[02:34] Elephas
    B-But I...
[02:37] Aileen
    I don't need your self-condemnation.
[02:39] Aileen
    And I'll never forgive you
    for what you did to Almond.
[02:45] Aileen
    Beg me, pathetically.
[02:48] Aileen
    Get on your knees and plead for
    forgiveness in a humiliating manner!
[02:51] Aileen
    If you do that, I can give
    Almond an excuse for my actions.
[03:04] Aileen
    Wh-What are you doing?!
[03:07] Elephas
    The...
[03:09] Elephas
    The eyes of a sorcerer can serve
    as powerful magic items.
[03:14] Elephas
    You'll be able to release the spell
    on the demon lord with my left eye.
[03:26] Elephas
    This is the greatest thing I can
    offer as a symbol of my loyalty.
[03:34] Aileen; Internal
    It's okay if I save him, right, Almond?
[03:45] Aileen
    We're going to conquer your homeland
    and go to the imperial capital.
[03:48] Aileen
    Hold on to that crystal.

    Wait! Stop!
[05:22] Knights
    Wait!
[05:23] Knights
    Stop!
[05:28] Knights
    Stop them!
[05:32] Selena
    This way.
[05:34] Auguste
    Selena?
[05:36] Selena
    Come with me if you want to escape.
[05:38] Selena
    I know where the demon lord is, too.
[05:40] Auguste
    Wh-Why are you helping us?
[05:43] Selena
    If I save all of you, Lilia...
[05:46] Selena
    That woman will hate it. That's all.
[05:59] Aileen
    Come to think of it, what's the
    dowager empress trying to accomplish
[06:03] Aileen
    by keeping the sorcerers hostage?
[06:05] Elephas
    Don't you find it strange?
[06:08] Elephas
    How does the dowager empress
    maintain her youth?
[06:10] Aileen
    Wait, you don't mean...
[06:12] Aileen
    What a wasteful use of sorcerers!
[06:23] Aileen
    Isaac! Sir Keith!
[06:26] Keith
    Lady Aileen?!
[06:29] Isaac
    Hey! Why is that sorcerer with you?!
[06:32] Isaac
    He's an enemy!
[06:33] Aileen
    It's fine! He's been trained!
[06:35] Elephas
    Please mind your phrasing...
[06:37] Aileen
    More importantly, what's going on?
[06:39] Aileen
    The demons should have fled
    from the imperial capital!
[06:42] Isaac
    They've turned around, saying they're
    going to save the demon lord!
[06:45] Aileen
    What?!
[06:48] Aileen
    Help me, Elephas!
[06:50] Aileen
    You must have regained some
    of your powers by now.
[06:53] Elephas
    Wait... Lady Aileen?!
[07:04] Belzebuth
    Aileen! Move!
[07:06] Belzebuth
    Our lord is crying out!
[07:08] Aileen
    Calm down!
[07:09] Aileen
    Lord Claude didn't order
    you to return, did he?
[07:11] Belzebuth
    So we shouldn't save him, then?
[07:14] Belzebuth
    Do you care more about the
    humans than about our lord?!
[07:21] Aileen
    I'll go and save Lord Claude.
[07:25] Aileen
    Belzebuth, you have to protect the demons.
[07:31] Belzebuth
    Until the sun sets. We won't
    wait a moment longer.
[07:38] Elephas
    If it's just you, I can easily
    take us to the imperial capital.
[07:41] Elephas
    The problem is what to do once we get there.
[07:43] Aileen
    What do you mean?
[07:44] Elephas
    We'll have to put this crystal into
    the dowager empress's magical tool
[07:48] Elephas
    in order to break the spell.
[07:51] Elephas
    But I don't know where the
    tool itself is hidden...
[07:54] James
    Aileen! Can you hear me? Aileen!
[07:58] Aileen
    Huh? What is that voice?
[08:01] Aileen
    James?! I can hear you!
[08:03] Aileen
    Where are you?
[08:04] James
    I'm in a detached building
    of the imperial palace.
[08:06] James
    We managed to find Lord Claude, but...
[08:09] James
    He's been drugged with demon incense
    and hasn't regained consciousness.
[08:13] Holy Knights
    Open up!
[08:13] James
    And we're surrounded!
[08:15] Aileen
    Is Rachel safe?
[08:17] James
    Yes. She worked the hardest of all of us.
[08:20] James
    Anyway, the demon lord is crying
    out because of the demon incense!
[08:23] James
    If our lord regains his powers,
[08:25] James
    the demon incense inside him
    will instantly disperse...
[08:28] James
    But we have no idea how!
[08:32] Aileen
    Selena! Can you hear me?
[08:34] Aileen
    Do you know anything about the
    dowager empress's magic tool?
[08:37] Selena
    Magic tool?
[08:38] Aileen
    Weren't you trying to get
    into Prince Cédric's bed?
[08:42] Aileen
    Haven't you done some research
    about the imperial capital?
[08:45] Selena
    E-Even if I was, why would I tell you?!
[08:48] Selena
    You're the person I hate
    most after Lady Lilia!
[08:50] Auguste
    Selena!
[08:52] Auguste
    Please! We need you, Selena!
[08:58] Selena
    The northern tower is your best bet.
[09:00] Selena
    There are rumors that she hides
    a very important treasure there.
[09:04] Auguste
    Th-That's true. The holy knights were
    never allowed near that area!
[09:09] Aileen
    You two are such a good fit.
[09:12] Aileen
    You should let yourself be
    fooled by Selena forever.
[09:15] Auguste
    What's that supposed to mean?!
[09:15] Selena
    What are you saying?!
[09:17] James
    Aileen.
[09:19] James
    We'll protect Lord Claude.
[09:23] James
    Stay safe. Otherwise,
    Lord Claude will be sad.
[09:27] Aileen
    I'll be fine. I would never
    make Lord Claude sad.
[09:42] Elephas
    This way.
[09:45] Aileen
    Are the hostages of the Levi family
    also being kept in the northern tower?
[09:48] Elephas
    Yeah.
[09:51] Aileen; Internal
    The holy sword? It couldn't be...
SIGN    Voice: Kana Hanazawa
SIGN    She is the reincarnation of the Holy
     Sword Maiden. Though she is a
    commoner who rose up to become
     a baroness, she is very popular in
    the academy. As the bearer of the
    holy sword, she becomes the strongest
     holy knight in the empire. Just like
     Aileen, she has memories of the game
     and skillfully manipulates the characters
    as she wishes.

[10:15] Lilia
    Oh, my. Shouldn't Elephas
    have been executed by now?
[10:19] Lilia
    I loved that romance path
    because it was so sad.
[10:21] Lilia
    That's why I was careful
    to raise his affection level.
[10:25] Lilia
    Oh, don't worry about it.
[10:27] Lilia
    Characters wouldn't understand
    what I'm talking about.
[10:29] Lilia
    Right, Lady Aileen?
[10:32] Lilia
    What do you think of how this all went?
[10:34] Lilia
    I learned from my previous mistakes
    and tried my best this time.
[10:38] Aileen
    The focus of your efforts
    is completely wrong.
[10:41] Lilia
    Really? But it wasn't easy to obtain the
    holy sword from Leicester's romance path.
[10:50] Aileen; Internal
    My holy sword is from Prince
    Cédric's romance path.
[10:53] Aileen; Internal
    Lady Lilia conquered another romance
    path to regain her own holy sword.
[11:01] Aileen
    I'll draw her attention.
    Release Lord Claude from the spell.
[11:06] Aileen
    Can I ask you one thing?
[11:09] Aileen
    Why do you keep getting in my way?
[11:11] Lilia
    Well, I'm the only person who
    could possibly be your opponent.
[11:15] Lilia
    Don't suffer a pathetic loss
    against me, Lady Aileen.
[11:19] Lilia
    You're the main character, after all.
[11:32] Belzebuth
    If anything happens to our lord,
     we will make you pay for it.
[11:37] Keith
    That's fine. If anything does happen,
    just bite my head off.
[11:42] Keith
    I've done a few bad things myself.
     It'd be an honor.
[11:46] Belzebuth
    What are you talking about?
[11:49] Keith
    I was jealous of all of you.
[11:52] Keith
    Even if Lord Claude is hurting...
[11:55] Keith
    I'm always the only one who doesn't know.
[12:05] Denis
    Sir Belzebuth!
[12:11] Denis
    We finally caught up to you!
[12:14] Quartz
    Are there any injured demons?
[12:17] Luc
    We brought medicine.
[12:18] Jasper
    I'm an old man. Don't make me work so hard.
[12:21] Isaac
    So what are you guys going to do?
[12:23] Isaac
    Are you just invading without
    thinking once the sun sets?
[12:27] Isaac
    Or do you want to go with
    us to save the demon lord?
[12:30] Belzebuth
    Why would all of you save our lord?
[12:33] Belzebuth
    Isn't our lord in your way
    if you all like Aileen?
[12:42] Belzebuth
    Not that you lot would be any match
    for our lord, even all together...
[12:47] Keith
    Bel, read the atmosphere!
[12:49] Keith
    Try to understand the
    complexities of a man's heart!
[12:55] Jasper
    Why would we save him?
    The answer is obvious.
[13:00] Jasper
    Humans are stupid.
[13:02] Jasper
    They think they can get along with anyone
    if they just put their minds to it.
[13:08] Belzebuth
    Anyone?
[13:09] Jasper
    That's right. Even you guys.
[13:15] Belzebuth
    How very human. You're all
    so arrogant and self-serving.
[13:39] Aileen
    You freaking overpowered main character...
[13:42] Lilia
    Oh, my.
[13:43] Lilia
    Aren't the efforts of the heroine
    always rewarded in an otome game?
[13:47] Aileen
    You should work on your
    etiquette parameters, too!
[13:50] Lilia
    Well, increasing that parameter works
    against the strength parameter.
[13:54] Lilia
    But aren't the base parameters
    of the villainess a bit too high?
[13:57] Lilia
    The only negative thing is...
[13:59] Lilia
    a bad personality?
[14:07] Lilia
    It's a wall made with my holy sword.
[14:09] Lilia
    Please don't get in the way of my fun time.
[14:15] Aileen; Internal
    I need to take that holy sword from her!
[14:27] Aileen
    What?!
[14:30] Lilia
    That hurts!
[14:32] Lilia
    No way. This really hurts like hell!
[14:36] Aileen
    Do you plan to absorb my holy sword?!
[14:37] Lilia
    I'm just having you return it.
[14:39] Lilia
    Then only I will be able to destroy
    the demon lord and all the demons.
[14:44] Lilia
    You should play this game with me more!
[14:51] Lilia
    Doesn't it bother you?
[14:52] Lilia
    What in the world is a Holy
    Sword Maiden, anyway?
[14:57] Aileen; Internal
    The Holy Sword Maiden?
[14:59] Aileen; Internal
    I'm the woman who will become
    the wife of the demon lord!
[15:05] Lilia
    Just what is Regalia of Saints,
    Demons, and Maidens?
[15:10] Aileen
    That's obvious.
[15:12] Aileen
    It's just the power of love!
[15:18] Lilia
    Are you serious?!
[15:20] Lilia
    You're absorbing the demon lord's magic?!
[15:22] Lilia
    Are you planning to kill the demon lord?!
[15:32] Aileen
    Lord Claude would never
    die and leave me behind!
[15:36] Aileen
    And that just means I need to save
    Lord Claude before that happens!
[15:50] Elephas
    I-It's no use!
[15:54] Elephas
    The door is shut with magic!
[16:03] Lilia
    Too bad!
[16:09] Aileen; Internal
    I'm running out of magic power...
[16:11] Aileen; Internal
    Lord Claude is dying!
[16:15] Elephas
    I-I'll use all of my magic!
[16:30] Lilia
    Lady Aileen!
[16:32] Lilia
    Looks like I win.
[16:46] Almond
    My turn to shine soon?
[16:51] Aileen
    No way...
[16:56] Aileen
    Almond! We have to save Lord Claude!
[16:58] Almond
    Leave it to me!
[17:06] Lilia
    What's going on?!
[17:10] Almond
    Me! So cool!
[17:43] Lara
    N-No way. It can't be!
[17:55] Aileen
    We did it?
[17:57] Elephas
    The spell should be gone now.
[18:01] Marcus
    Stop right there!
[18:04] Leicester
    Aileen Lauren d'Autriche!
[18:07] Leicester
    You shall be executed for treason!
[18:13] Lilia
    How sad. To think that Lady Aileen
    would be executed in the end...
[18:22] Claude
    Who are you pointing your swords at?
[18:39] Aileen
    Lord Claude...
[18:45] Almond
    Demon lord! Demon lord!
[18:50] Claude
    Everyone, stand down.
[18:51] Leicester
    B-But we act under an imperial order.
[18:54] Claude
    I've rescinded that order.
[18:56] Leicester
    What?
[18:57] Claude
    His Imperial Majesty has fallen ill
    and is focusing on recuperating.
[19:01] Claude
    So I am currently acting in his stead.
[19:04] Claude
    Isn't that right, Cédric?
[19:07] Cédric
    It must be true if my brother says so.
[19:11] Leicester
    Wh-What's going on?
[19:14] Cédric
    Leicester...
[19:15] Cédric
    We already know that you bought the
    demon incense from the black market.
[19:20] Cédric
    Looks like Marcus was manipulated, as well.
[19:22] Marcus
    Wha—
[19:23] Lilia
    What? What's going on?
[19:25] Cédric
    Lilia... What a terrifying woman you are.
[19:29] Cédric
    Everyone acts for your sake, but you act
    like you have nothing to do with it.
[19:36] Cédric
    Brother, I am responsible for
    allowing this to happen.
[19:40] Cédric
    Of course, my fiancée is guilty
    for her actions, as well.
[19:44] Cédric
    Punish us as you see fit.
[19:45] Lilia
    C-Cédric?!
[19:47] Cédric
    Lilia, I won't listen to you
    blindly and become your puppet.
[19:56] Cédric
    Even so, my love for you will never fade.
[20:04] Claude
    Aileen.
[20:07] Claude
    You must have been scared.
[20:12] Claude
    Everything is fine now.
[20:16] Claude
    Come here, Aileen.
[20:38] Aileen; Narration
    "I will marry Aileen."
[20:41] Aileen; Narration
    Lord Claude announced that soon after
    the emperor and dowager empress
[20:45] Aileen; Narration
    left the imperial capital to recover.
[20:48] Aileen; Narration
    Lord Claude released the Levi family.
[20:52] Aileen; Narration
    He also promised them official
    reparations for their suffering.
[20:57] Aileen; Narration
    Almond is as energetic as ever.
[21:00] Aileen; Narration
    He's currently practicing his
    dance for the wedding reception.
[21:04] Aileen; Narration
    Elephas's magic arrow only put him
    into a state of suspended animation.
[21:11] Aileen; Narration
    His pride as a sorcerer who didn't kill
    demons was befitting of a final boss.
[21:18] Aileen; Narration
    Prince Cédric and Lady Lilia got their
    happy bad ending of being sentenced to prison.
[21:29] Aileen; Narration
    My dark future and my path to destruction
[21:34] Aileen; Narration
    are now so bright and beautiful.
[21:38] Aileen; Narration
    I don't care what kind of troubles
    we'll have in the future.
[21:43] Aileen; Narration
    Our love will be able to destroy
    any bad ending flags in our way!
