Moon Reader got a request for some. [00:05] Linze     The books from the Regulus Empire, right? [00:07] Touya     Yeah. It's my first time going there,     so I got the memory from Lapis-san. [00:12] Touya     What are you doing after this, Linze? [00:14] Linze     I plan to read for a little longer. [00:16] Touya     I feel like you're always in Moon Reader now. [00:20] Linze     Really? I feel like I could     be reading even more. [00:24] Touya     You could read even more? [00:25] Touya     Don't get too engrossed in it, okay? [00:28] Linze     Sure! [00:29] Touya     All right! [00:30] Touya     Time for a quick trip to buy some books, then! SIGN    Episode 4 SIGN    Upheaval in the Capital and an Imperial Princess [02:12] Touya     Wh-What's all this? [02:14] Touya     A fire? [02:16] Touya     No, this is no ordinary fire. [02:17] Touya     What's going on? [02:20] Touya     Gravity! [02:22] Touya     Boost! [02:28] Touya     Logan-san mentioned before that there were     strange movements in the Empire recently. [02:33] Touya     He was talking about them     strengthening their military, [02:37] Touya     but I didn't think it would lead to this... [02:43] Touya     You're safe now! [02:45] Touya     I shot him with a paralyzing bullet,     so he won't be able to move for a while. [02:49] Touya     What on earth is going on here? [02:52] Touya     We need to treat you! [02:53] BlackKnight(Prince)     The army... [02:54] Touya     Huh? [02:55] BlackKnight(Prince)     The army is revolting... [02:57] Touya     Revolting? [02:58] Touya     Meaning... this is a coup d'état?! [03:05] Touya     I treated his wounds with healing magic, [03:07] Touya     so he should be safe if stays hidden in here. [03:13] Touya     For now, I should find the emperor     and help him escape with Gate. [03:15] Touya     Maybe the fighting will settle down     once there's no one for them to defeat. [03:24] Touya     I have no idea where the     emperor's room is, though. [03:34] Touya     Search! [03:35] Touya     A girl, and someone trying to     harm her, within a 100-meter radius! [03:40] Cesca     Search complete. Displaying. [03:44] Touya     This way? [03:55] Touya     Are you okay?! [03:58] Lucia     Y-Yes. [04:00] Touya     Let's heal you first. [04:02] Lucia     Huh? [04:03] Lucia     Come forth, Light. [04:04] Lucia     Soothing Comfort: Cure Heal. [04:09] Lucia     She must have been terribly     frightened, to be shaking so much. [04:16] Lucia     You'll be all right now. [04:20] Lucia     Uh... [04:22] Lucia     I-It's nothing! [04:24] Lucia     I-I've just never had much     contact with men before, [04:28] Lucia     s-s-so I was a little nervous. [04:31] Carol     Princess! [04:33] Lucia     Carol! [04:34] Carol     You're safe? [04:36] Lucia     Yes. [04:37] Lucia     This man rescued me when I was in danger. [04:40] Carol     And you are... [04:42] Touya     I'm an adventurer from Belfast. [04:44] Touya     I used teleportation magic to visit     the Empire so I could buy some things, [04:48] Touya     and I ran into this commotion. [04:51] Carol     You can use teleportation magic?! [04:54] Carol     Then I beg of you! [04:56] Carol     Please teleport the emperor, prince, [04:58] Carol     and princess to safety! [05:00] Touya     S-Sure. [05:02] Carol     You will?! [05:03] Touya     Yeah, that was my plan to begin with. [05:06] Carol     I apologize for losing my composure. [05:09] Carol     I am Caroline Rillettes, [05:11] Carol     a knight of the Empire's 3rd order. [05:14] Carol     Please call me Carol. [05:17] Lucia     I am the third princess of the Regulus     Empire, Lucia Rea Regulus. [05:23] Touya     I'm Mochizuki Touya. Nice to meet you. [05:26] Lucia     Mochizuki Touya... [05:28] Touya     What should we do? [05:29] Touya     Shall I get Princess Lucia to safety first? [05:31] Carol     Yes, please do. [05:33] Lucia     No, that can come later. [05:36] Lucia     Touya, please. [05:38] Lucia     Please save my father and     older brother before me. [05:43] Touya     All right, but... [05:45] Touya     The chances that the emperor and     prince are safe in this situation are... [05:51] Lucia     I'm prepared for the worst. [05:53] Lucia     Even so... [05:54] Lucia     I can't escape on my own before them. [05:57] Lucia     Please take me to my father and older brother. [06:01] Touya     All right. Let's go. [06:03] Carol     I'll lead the way. [06:08] Touya     It's through there? [06:10] Carol     Yes. That's the emperor's bedchamber. [06:20] Lucia     Father! [06:21] Touya     I guess we were too late? [06:25] Carol     General Bazoar! [06:27] Carol     What are you thinking,     attacking His Imperial Majesty?! [06:30] Bazoar     Princess Lucia and the Rillettes girl... [06:33] Bazoar     So you're still alive? [06:35] Touya     I might as well ask. Why are you doing this? [06:38] Bazoar     Who are you? [06:40] Touya     I'm an adventurer from Belfast. [06:42] Touya     An outsider. [06:43] Touya     I don't understand what's going on, [06:45] Touya     so I haven't been able to     decide if I should take a side. [06:48] Touya     So please tell me why you're doing this. [06:50] Bazoar     The emperor has fallen mentally ill. [06:54] Bazoar     There has never been a better time [06:56] Bazoar     to break our non-aggression     treaty and invade Belfast, [07:00] Bazoar     yet he still hesitates to do so. [07:01] Touya     Break the non-aggression treaty? [07:04] Touya     You mean you're taking over     the country to try and start a war? [07:09] Bazoar     And what if I am? [07:10] Touya     Belfast has an alliance with its     neighbors, Mismede and Refreese. [07:15] Touya     You think you can beat all three nations? [07:17] Bazoar     We can. [07:19] Bazoar     Did you think we spent the last     20 years twiddling our thumbs [07:23] Bazoar     after signing that non-aggression treaty? [07:26] Touya     What's with his magic capacity?! [07:28] Bazoar     Come forth, Dark! [07:29] Bazoar     I seek a prince of devils, Demon Lord! [07:45] Lucia     A-A devil! [07:48] Touya     How were you able to forge a pact     with such a powerful devil? [07:50] Bazoar     Through sacrifices. [07:52] Bazoar     I offered him living sacrifices from     the criminals detained in the capital city. [07:56] Touya     Then where does your exceptional     magic power come from? [07:59] Touya     Is that the work of the devil, too? [08:01] Bazoar     My magic power comes from... [08:04] Touya     An Artifact! [08:05] Bazoar     This is the Bracelet of Absorption. [08:07] Bazoar     It drains magic power from others. [08:10] Touya     It drains magic power? [08:12] Touya     So that's why my body has felt sluggish. [08:16] Lucia     My body is... [08:20] Touya     This is bad. [08:21] Touya     I could risk granting him even     more magic power if I stay here. [08:26] Touya     Apport! [08:28] Bazoar     You still have magic power left? [08:31] Touya     Why? [08:32] Touya     Why didn't my spell work? [08:33] Bazoar     One of that devil's unique     traits is magic nullification. [08:37] Bazoar     Magic attacks don't work on it. [08:39] Bazoar     And the same unique trait lies within me,      the one who forged a pact with it. [08:43] Touya     That ability's gonna be a real pain. [08:45] Touya     In that case... [08:48] Bazoar     Too bad for you. [08:50] Bazoar     You probably thought a direct attack     would work if magic didn't, [08:54] Bazoar     but it doesn't work like that. [08:55] Touya     Another one? [08:56] Bazoar     This is the Bulwark Bracelet. [08:58] Bazoar     It protects me from all types     of physical attacks. [09:02] Touya     I see. [09:03] Touya     You drain magic power with     the Bracelet of Absorption, [09:05] Touya     nullify physical attacks     with the Bulwark Bracelet, [09:07] Touya     and nullify magic attacks with the unique     trait of your summoned Demon Lord. [09:12] Bazoar     This is my invincible defense! [09:15] Bazoar     There isn't a man alive     with the ability to harm me! [09:19] Touya     I'm not one to talk, but     that's way too overpowered! [09:25] Touya     He's alive? [09:26] Touya     We haven't found the prince yet... [09:28] Touya     But saving lives takes priority here. [09:31] Touya     Open a Gate. [09:33] Touya     Targets are the emperor,     Princess Lucia, and Carol-san. [09:37] Touya     Teleport them to my garden. [09:39] Cesca     Understood. [09:40] Cesca     Activating Gate. [09:44] Bazoar     You can use teleportation magic?! [09:47] Touya     Correct. [09:48] Touya     I'll withdraw for today, [09:50] Touya     but I promise things won't     go as you've planned. [09:53] Bazoar     Fool. [09:54] Bazoar     I told you that no one can harm me     so long as I have the Bulwark Bracelet. [09:59] Touya     Slip! [10:07] Touya     Well? [10:08] Touya     I may not have harmed your body,     but I harmed your pride, didn't I? [10:12] Bazoar     Wh-What did you... [10:15] Touya     Of course, he'll stop it soon     by absorbing the magic power [10:18] Touya     from the floor with the     Bracelet of Absorption. [10:20] Bazoar     Damn it! [10:22] Touya     I'll use illusion magic to leave him     one more present before I go. [10:25] Touya     Mirage! [10:28] Bazoar     What did you do this time?! [10:30] Touya     Farewell, men! [10:32] Touya     Soon, the iron hammer of Babylon     will fall upon you all! [10:35] Touya     Say your prayers as you wait     for that moment to come! [10:43] Bazoar     Bugs! [10:44] Touya     Oh, man, I could get hooked on this. [10:45] Bazoar     So many bugs! [10:47] Bazoar     What is this?! [10:55] Touya     I already used healing magic on the emperor. [10:58] Touya     The doctor is taking a look at him now, [11:01] Touya     but the rest is up to him. [11:03] Elze     Good grief. [11:05] Elze     Why do you always end up sticking     your neck into such trouble? [11:08] Touya     It's not like I wanted to     stick my neck into this. [11:11] Linze     I can't believe that was     happening in the Empire. [11:14] Touya     I ran a search, and there     are over 10,000 soldiers, [11:17] Touya     while there are only around     1,000 imperial knights. [11:20] Touya     Nearly ten times as many. [11:21] Yae     This is a terrible situation. [11:24] Yae     If the Empire uses that devil     to attack Belfast... [11:28] Yumina     We need to do something     about it before then. [11:30] Elze     But there's nothing we can do if magic     attacks and physical attacks won't work. [11:36] Yae     Touya-dono, do you have any ideas? [11:39] Touya     Yeah, I have one that might work. [11:43] Touya     I'm not really into the idea     of tormenting someone, [11:46] Touya     but I guess there's no choice. [11:48] Linze     Touya... [11:49] Yae     You're plotting something     evil again, aren't you? [11:50] Touya     Huh? Huh? [11:51] Yumina     He is. [11:53] Touya     They said there's no need to worry,     as long as he keeps resting. [11:57] Touya     That's great, right, Princess Lucia? [11:59] Lucia     Thank you so much. It is a great relief. [12:02] Lucia     U-Um... [12:04] Lucia     Would you please call me Lu? [12:08] Touya     All right, Lu. [12:09] Touya     Like that? [12:11] Lucia     Yes! That makes me so happy! [12:13] Yumina     Stare. [12:15] Touya     You startled me, Yumina! [12:19] Yumina     It's a pleasure to meet you. [12:21] Yumina     I am Yumina Urnea Belfast, [12:23] Yumina     daughter of Tristwyn Urnes Belfast,     King of the Kingdom of Belfast. [12:28] Lucia     P-Pleased to meet you. [12:31] Lucia     I am Lucia Rea Regulus, third daughter     of Emperor Zephyrus Roa Regulus. [12:37] Yumina     You must have had a terrible time. [12:39] Yumina     I'm relieved to see you're safe. [12:41] Lucia     Yes, Touya came to my rescue and     allowed me to escape this crisis. [12:46] Yumina     That's great to hear. [12:47] Yumina     It makes me happy as Touya's fiancée. [12:50] Lucia     Huh? Fiancée? [12:53] Lucia     I-I see... [12:55] Touya     Yumina, I'm going to head to the castle     now and give my report on the Empire. [13:00] Yumina     Understood. [13:03] Yumina     Lucia, you love Touya as well, don't you? [13:08] Lucia     Huh?! O-Of course not! [13:11] Lucia     Touya is the man who saved     my life, nothing more! [13:15] Lucia     O-Of course, he is very handsome, and he's     a wonderful, reliable person, in my opinion... [13:19] Lucia     But as I said, um... [13:21] Lucia     I'm not sure what to say... [13:24] Yumina     I understand! [13:25] Lucia     Huh? [13:26] Yumina     A single word is not enough     to describe Touya's charm! [13:28] Yumina     I knew you and I would get along! [13:31] Lucia     Er, um... [13:33] Yumina     Lucia, I have some things to     discuss with you regarding that. [13:36] Yumina     We would be getting in His Imperial     Majesty's way here, so let's talk in my room! [13:41] Tristwyn     So that's what's happening in the Empire... [13:44] Tristwyn     I didn't expect to receive both     good and bad news today. [13:48] Touya     Huh? [13:49] Tristwyn     Oh, Yumina will be getting     a younger brother or sister. [13:52] Touya     What?! Congratulations! [13:54] Tristwyn     I have mixed feelings about it. [13:57] Tristwyn     I was hoping that you would succeed me. [14:00] Touya     No, no, if you have a boy, [14:03] Touya     it's only right that he inherits the throne. [14:05] Tristwyn     Then if it's a girl, you     would inherit it for me? [14:09] Touya     No, that logic isn't right. [14:11] Tristwyn     Well, jokes aside, [14:13] Tristwyn     I understand your plan     to defeat General Bazoar. [14:17] Tristwyn     I'm sorry to place this burden on you,     but please proceed with it. [14:22] Touya     Storage. [14:24] Rosetta     Have you finished your preparations? [14:27] Touya     Yeah. [14:27] Rosetta     Both the Bracelet of Absorption     and the Bulwark Bracelet, huh? [14:31] Touya     Do those ring a bell? [14:34] Rosetta     If I remember right, I believe there     were Artifacts with those abilities [14:38] Rosetta     in Babylon's Storehouse. [14:40] Touya     What?! [14:41] Touya     So... you're saying those bracelets     leaked out of the Storehouse [14:45] Touya     and ended up in the general's hands? [14:47] Rosetta     Yes. [14:48] Rosetta     I believe there's also a chance that many     other items there fell down to the surface. [14:53] Touya     Hold on. [14:54] Touya     So the Immortal Gem that grants its owner     Immortality and caused the stir in Eashen [15:00] Touya     was also an artifact that     leaked out of the Storehouse?! [15:03] Rosetta     Yeah, I do think there was something     like that in the Storehouse. [15:07] Touya     I knew it. [15:08] Rosetta     The administrator of the Storehouse     is a clumsy, careless woman. [15:13] Lucia     Touya! [15:14] Lucia     My father! [15:15] Yumina     He woke up moments ago. [15:18] Touya     That's great. [15:19] Zephyrus     So you are Mochizuki Touya? [15:22] Touya     Yes. [15:23] Zephyrus     I cannot show enough gratitude to you     for saving my life and Lucia's. [15:28] Touya     Please don't worry about it. [15:30] Touya     I just happened to be in the     capital city to do some shopping. [15:33] Zephyrus     It's a relief to hear you say that. [15:35] Zephyrus     This uprising was brought     about by my own weakness. [15:39] Zephyrus     It's truly vexing. [15:41] Touya     So... what will you do now? [15:44] Zephyrus     I must defeat General Bazoar. [15:46] Zephyrus     I'll need to devise a plan as soon as possible. [15:48] Touya     It's possible for me to reclaim     the capital as early as tomorrow. [15:53] Yumina     Impressive, Touya. [15:55] Lucia     Um, Touya? [15:58] Touya     What is it, Lu? [16:00] Lucia     Before you handle General Bazoar, [16:02] Lucia     could you look for my older brother? [16:05] Touya     The prince? [16:06] Lucia     If we could at least find out     whether he's alive or not... [16:09] Touya     Well, it's not impossible... [16:11] Touya     Does the prince have any     unique characteristics? [16:13] Lucia     Unique characteristics? [16:16] Lucia     Uh, he has silver hair, and, um... well... [16:20] Lucia     Unique, unique... [16:22] Touya     He really doesn't have any unique traits, huh? [16:24] Touya     Lu, hold out your hand for a moment. [16:26] Lucia     O-Okay. [16:30] Touya     Close your eyes and think     of your older brother. [16:33] Touya     Picture how he looked most recently. [16:35] Lucia     O-Okay. [16:38] Touya     Focus. [16:39] Lucia     O-Okay! [16:41] Touya     Recall. [16:44] Touya     Huh? [16:44] Lucia     I-Is something the matter? [16:47] Touya     I've met this man before. [16:50] All     Huh? [16:51] Touya     Oh, crap. I left him behind. [16:53] Lucia     What?! [16:54] Touya     Hey, I didn't think he     could possibly be the prince! [16:57] Touya     S-Search. [16:58] Touya     The imperial prince. [17:00] Cesca     Understood. [17:01] Cesca     Search complete. [17:02] Cesca     Displaying now. [17:05] Touya     We have his location. [17:08] Zephyrus     Wh-What is this? [17:09] Touya     It's my null magic. [17:11] Touya     Convenient, right? [17:13] Touya     So, where is this? [17:15] Zephyrus     That's General Romero's mansion. [17:18] Zephyrus     The general was always at odds with Bazoar. [17:20] Zephyrus     He's most likely keeping     the prince safe there. [17:23] Touya     That's reassuring, then. [17:25] Lucia     So my older brother is safe? [17:27] Lucia     What a relief. [17:29] Lucia     Thank you so much! [17:30] Touya     I'm glad I could help. [17:32] Touya     Then we storm the capital     first thing tomorrow morning. [17:35] Lucia     Huh? [17:36] Zephyrus     Hold on a moment! [17:37] Zephyrus     It's a bit late to ask,     but are you sure that's wise? [17:40] Zephyrus     You'll be facing a devil and     an army of over 10,000! [17:43] Zephyrus     Can you face them by yourself? [17:45] Touya     I'll manage. [17:46] Touya     I have powerful allies on my side, after all. [17:52] Touya     Sango, Kokuyou, Kohaku, [17:54] Touya     follow Elze and Yae to suppress the army. [17:57] Touya     Try not to attack anyone      who surrenders to us. [18:00] Touya     Yumina, Linze, [18:01] Touya     provide cover fire with magic and guns. [18:03] Touya     I'll take down the Demon Lord and the general. [18:10] Touya     All right, everyone... [18:12] Touya     Let's go! [18:21] Bazoar     So he did come. [18:32] Touya     Face me, Demon Lord! [18:36] Touya     That's close! [18:43] Touya     Accel, Boost! [18:46] Touya     If I increase the weight of     my blade with gravity magic [18:49] Touya     the moment it strikes his head... [18:52] Touya     Gravity! [19:00] Touya     Glad that went well. [19:02] Touya     It might have magic nullification or whatever, [19:04] Touya     but it doesn't have any effect     if the spell doesn't target it. [19:07] Touya     I only applied the spell     to the blade, after all. [19:11] Elze     Touya! [19:15] Touya     Are you all okay? [19:16] Yumina     Yes, we're fine. [19:18] Yae     Touya-dono! That was impressive! [19:21] Elze     You defeated it in no time. [19:23] Linze     That was amazing! [19:24] Touya     Thanks. [19:26] Touya     But we still have a few     finishing touches left to do. [19:30] Touya     All right, time for your punishment. [19:32] Bazoar     Wh-Who are you?! [19:35] Bazoar     That was a high-ranking devil! [19:36] Bazoar     You shouldn't have been able     to defeat it on your own! [19:38] Touya     Well, maybe not, but I just did. [19:43] Bazoar     That won't work against me! [19:45] Bazoar     Even if you've defeated the Demon Lord, [19:47] Bazoar     I still have its magic nullification trait! [19:50] Bazoar     So long as I have the Bulwark Bracelet     and Bracelet of Absorption, [19:53] Bazoar     I have nothing to fear! [19:55] Touya     Storage. [19:58] Bazoar     Wh-What is that? [20:01] Touya     This is a Sludge Slime. [20:03] Touya     It's a very welcome slime     that purifies water. [20:06] Bazoar     A slime? [20:07] Touya     It just has one downside. [20:10] Touya     About an hour after it dies,     it emits an unbelievably foul odor. [20:15] Touya     And the Sludge Slime in there     died about one hour ago, you see. [20:20] Bazoar     Y-You don't mean... [20:22] Touya     Gate. [20:27] Bazoar     I-It reeks! [20:27] Touya     The tempered glass made in     the Workshop really is amazing. [20:31] Touya     I can't smell it at all over here. [20:35] Touya     Hey, you're really hanging in there. [20:37] Touya     There. [20:53] Touya     Okay, are you all set? [20:55] Zephyrus     Yes, please. [20:57] Touya     Play the video in the sky above the capital. [21:00] Cesca     Understood. Playing now. [21:05] Zephyrus     Citizens of the capital. [21:06] Zephyrus     I am the Emperor of Regulus,     Zephyrus Roa Regulus. [21:11] Zephyrus     This recent uprising was caused     by a portion of the army gone mad. [21:15] Zephyrus     However, the man behind this     uprising has been captured, [21:18] Zephyrus     and the capital is once more     under our control. [21:21] Zephyrus     As your emperor, I offer my sincere     apologies for the trouble [21:24] Zephyrus     caused by not stopping the     army's recklessness sooner. [21:27] Zephyrus     I am sorry. [21:30] Citizens     Thank goodness. [21:38] Elze     Touya! You did it! [21:41] Touya     I'm glad you're all safe, too. Good work. [21:44] Lucia     Touya, thank you so very much. [21:49] Touya     What is it? [21:50] Yumina     Um, you kind of smell... [21:53] Touya     Huh? [21:54] Touya     Oh... [21:55] Touya     It's because I touched General Bazoar     when I was retrieving the bracelets. [21:58] Yumina     Touya... [22:00] Elze     So you really did use that slime, then? [22:02] Yae     I'm surprised you came up     with such a disgusting strategy. [22:06] Elze     That's a talent in its own right. [22:08] Touya     Hey, no! It's not like I wanted to do that! [22:11] Touya     But I had no choice! It was the only way! [22:13] Elze     Is that really true? [22:15] Yae     Oh, but you seemed to enjoy it so much. [22:17] Touya     I mean it!
