[00:07] Azusa
My life has suddenly become
a lot more lively.
[00:12] Azusa
The reason couldn't be clearer:
[00:14] Azusa
because we're a family of four now.
[00:16] Shalsha
Shall we read a book, Big Sister?
[00:18] Falfa
Sure!
[00:19] Falfa
I love the books you read
to me! They're so fun!
[00:22] Shalsha
Then let's read Lauretta's History of
the Rise and Fall of the Elvish People: Vol. 3,
[00:27] Shalsha
chapter 5, passage 2,
[00:29] Shalsha
the commercial policy failures of the
Clar Dynasty of the province of Hrant.
[00:33] Azusa
That's way too specialized!
[00:34] Shalsha
The private army of Kranke, the first ruler
of the Clar Dynasty, grew so mighty
[00:39] Shalsha
that it attained the status of a military
clique among the elves of Hrant.
[00:43] Shalsha
Eventually, in the year 405,
he declared himself king.
[00:44] Azusa
Elves, huh? I've never met an elf.
[00:51] SFX
Boing!
[00:52] SFX
Tight!
[00:52] SFX
Boing!
[00:56] Halkara
Um...
[00:57] Shalsha
It's an elf.
[00:59] Azusa
And what can I do for you?
[01:01] Halkara
Um, someone is after me...
[01:04] Halkara
and I was hoping the Witch of
the Highlands could help me.
[01:08] Azusa
I bet I can guess who
would go after an elf...
[01:11] Azusa
Are there any orcs around here?
[01:13] Halkara
It's not orcs!
[01:15] Halkara
I want you to save me from
the high demon Beelzebub!
[01:19] Azusa
I'm not home right now.
[01:21] Halkara
Wait! I'm begging you!
[01:23] Halkara
I don't know of anyone who could help
me but the Witch of the Highlands!
[01:28] Azusa
I don't want to fight a monster that scary!
[01:31] Halkara
Please don't say that! I heard
you're incredibly strong!
[01:34] Azusa
I refuse!
[01:36] Halkara
I'm begging you, Most Powerful,
Berserk, Wonderful, Strong Witch!
[01:40] Azusa
Don't give me weird names that
make me sound like a wrestler!
[01:43] SFX
Bzzz...
SIGN I've Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years
and Maxed Out My Level
SIGN Along Came an Elf
SIGN Along Came an Elf
[03:20] Halkara
I came here from a small nation of
elves in the province of Hrant.
[03:25] Halkara
I'm Halkara the apothecary.
[03:28] Falfa
Apothecary?
[03:30] Shalsha
It's someone who makes medicines.
[03:32] Azusa
That's similar to my line of work.
[03:34] Laika
Yes, witches make medicines, as well.
[03:37] Halkara
I specialize in plants, though.
[03:40] Azusa
Well, now we know what you do for a living,
[03:43] Azusa
but why would Beelzebub want
to go after an apothecary?
[03:46] Halkara
The truth is, I'm one of the
highest-paid apothecaries.
[03:51] Halkara
I collected components of mushrooms and
plants with exceptional nutritional value
[03:54] Halkara
to make an alcoholic drink
called Nutri-Spirit.
[03:57] Azusa
Nutri-Spirit?
[03:59] Halkara
When you're tired,
just one bottle of this...
[04:01] Halkara
...clears your mind!
[04:02] Halkara
...strengthens your body!
[04:03] Halkara
Halkara's Nutri-Spirit!
[04:05] Halkara
It'll get you through your tough job!
[04:10] Halkara
Hustle charge!
[04:11] Azusa
It's just an energy drink.
[04:13] Azusa
Sure, I had a lot of them when
I pulled all-nighters, but...
[04:16] Halkara
Nutri-Spirit became popular everywhere,
[04:19] Halkara
making it an explosive hit.
[04:21] Halkara
I even started a factory in town,
but production still couldn't keep up.
[04:25] Halkara
It's just that successful and profitable!
[04:28] Azusa
Yeah, I got that.
[04:30] Laika
And why is Beelzebub after you?
[04:33] Halkara
Apparently, she acquired some and drank it,
[04:36] Halkara
but it seems to be poisonous to demons.
[04:39] Halkara
After drinking it, she passed
out with a high fever
[04:42] Halkara
and nearly ended up going straight to Hell.
[04:44] Azusa
A demon... going to Hell?
[04:47] Azusa
So you're saying Beelzebub is
holding a grudge over that.
[04:51] Halkara
That's right.
[04:52] Halkara
She's been fuming that she'll kill
"whoever made this vile poison."
[04:58] Halkara
It got me chased out of my own town!
[05:01] Halkara
I have nowhere to go anymore!
[05:04] Halkara
Please! You have to help me!
[05:07] Falfa
Mama, I feel so bad for the elf lady.
[05:10] Shalsha
I can't bear to see someone
with no home to go back to.
[05:16] Azusa
All right. I'll help y—
[05:18] Halkara
Thank you so much!
[05:19] Azusa
You changed your tune quick!
[05:21] Azusa
But I have no intention
of fighting Beelzebub!
[05:24] Azusa
I'll only shelter you!
[05:27] Azusa
When you go out, wear this robe.
[05:30] Azusa
The story is that you're the second
pupil of Azusa, Witch of the Highlands.
[05:35] Halkara
Thank you, Master!
[05:38] SFX
Boom!
[05:39] SFX
Boing!
[05:42] Halkara
I'm sorry... It's just a bit tight on me...
[05:46] Azusa
This might not work.
[05:48] Azusa
Halkara, has anyone ever told
you that you're very well-developed?
[05:51] Halkara
About 750 times a year or so...
[05:54] Azusa
That's about twice a day!
[05:56] SFX
Bzzz...
[05:58] Azusa
You who have wicked hearts,
[06:00] Azusa
be caught in this net and
become incapacitated.
[06:04] Azusa
This net will fall upon you as
if it has a will of its own.
[06:13] Azusa
There. That doesn't look too bad.
[06:16] Azusa
Now Beelzebub won't be able to get in.
[06:19] Halkara
Thank you so much!
[06:23] All
Let's eat!
[06:30] Laika
Um, is something wrong?
[06:33] Halkara
When I was busy with work,
I ate out all the time,
[06:36] Halkara
and when I was being chased, I survived
on tree nuts I found in the forest.
[06:41] Halkara
It's been so long since I had a warm
meal like this with anyone else...
[06:46] Falfa
Cheer up, Halkara!
[06:48] Shalsha
Halkara, have some of this
raspberry jam. It's my favorite.
[06:53] Halkara
Thank you so much!
[07:00] Azusa
Sorry to have you gather
medicinal herbs with me.
[07:03] Azusa
I bet the ones around here are
different from yours, huh?
[07:06] Halkara
Yes, they are.
[07:08] Halkara
Ah! Here we go!
[07:10] Halkara
A dawn king mushroom!
[07:12] Halkara
This one's a greater round mushroom.
[07:13] Halkara
And these are rolling rat mushrooms!
[07:16] Azusa
You're only picking mushrooms...
[07:17] Halkara
Well, mushrooms are my specialty!
[07:20] Halkara
Please be very careful.
[07:22] Halkara
Some of these are poison mushrooms
that are dangerous to eat raw.
[07:26] Halkara
But take this one, for example...
[07:28] Halkara
If you boil it for about ten minutes,
the poisons break down and disappear!
[07:33] Halkara
Then you can use them for cooking!
[07:35] Azusa
Wow...
[07:36] Halkara
By the way, the poison gives
you a warm, fuzzy feeling,
[07:39] Halkara
so connoisseurs leave a bit
in them when cooking them.
[07:42] Azusa
That mushroom's borderline insane!
[07:47] Azusa
This herb-gathering was way more
productive than I expected!
[07:51] Azusa
Thanks!
[07:52] Halkara
Not at all. I'm glad you
had such a good time.
[07:56] Halkara
Oh, looks like the small ones are ready.
[08:01] Halkara
This called elvin sauce.
[08:04] Halkara
It's made by fermenting
several types of beans.
[08:07] Azusa
It smells like soy sauce.
[08:13] Azusa
This is good!
[08:15] Azusa
It is soy sauce!
[08:16] Halkara
Please eat all you'd like.
[08:19] Azusa
I had no idea there were
so many edible mushrooms!
[08:23] Halkara
We elves don't live in
the forest for nothing.
[08:28] Azusa
I'd love to teach the villagers how to make
optimal use of the forest's bounties, too.
[08:35] Halkara
That's a nice idea!
[08:38] Azusa
I need to get my daughters
and Laika to try it, too!
[08:41] Halkara
I'll be glad to provide all
the guidance you need!
[08:45] Azusa
Come on, you're laughing a little too much.
[08:48] Halkara
You're right... But I just can't stop!
[08:53] Azusa
Wait...
[08:55] Azusa
Halkara, are those poison
mushrooms you're eating?
[08:59] Halkara
What are you talking about?
I'm a mushroom expert!
[09:03] Halkara
Striped wave mushrooms don't contain poison.
[09:06] Halkara
Orange pencil mushrooms don't
contain poison, either.
[09:08] Halkara
Triangular chestnut mushrooms
do contain poison!
[09:12] Azusa
You did have a poisonous one in the mix!
[09:15] Halkara
You're right!
[09:16] Halkara
I put one from the
medicinal-use zone in here!
[09:19] Azusa
Your sorting method's too careless!
[09:21] Azusa
That's one I haven't eaten yet.
[09:24] Azusa
That's a silver lining, I guess.
[09:27] Halkara
I did eat one...
[09:30] Azusa
What symptoms does it cause?
[09:32] Halkara
It stimulates your mind and body
so you laugh uncontrollably...
[09:37] Halkara
And... it works as an aphrodisiac, too...
[09:41] Azusa
Huh? Aphrodisiac?
[09:42] Halkara
That means it temporarily
makes you feel very lewd.
[09:47] Halkara
Huh?
[09:49] Halkara
Why are you moving away, Master?
[09:53] Azusa
Because I suspect you're
full of poison right now!
[09:56] Halkara
Master...
[09:57] SFX
Jiggle, jiggle...
[09:58] Halkara
Would you like to do something fun with me?
[10:01] Halkara
Actually... please do it...
[10:03] Azusa
No way!
[10:05] Halkara
Don't worry. I promise
it'll make you feel good.
[10:09] Azusa
That's not what I'm worried about!
[10:12] Halkara
Please...
[10:20] SFX
Ta-da!
[10:21] SFX
Ta-da!
[10:22] SFX
Ta-da!
[10:23] SFX
Ta-da!
[10:25] Laika
Um... What happened while you
two were gathering herbs?
[10:28] Azusa
Oh, stuff.
[10:30] Azusa
I neutralized the poison with magic, though.
[10:32] Halkara
I made a careless mistake...
[10:35] Halkara
I'm sorry. Please don't ask questions.
[10:38] Halkara
Accept these mushroom dishes as my apology.
[10:40] Falfa
Yummy!
[10:42] Shalsha
It's wonderfully seasoned.
[10:45] Laika
This is delicious!
[10:46] Halkara
Isn't it?!
[10:47] Halkara
Striped wave mushrooms puff up
when you wrap them before cooking!
[10:50] Halkara
They're the best!
[10:52] Azusa
You bounced back quick!
[10:53] Laika
Our cooking repertoire will
expand with you here, Halkara.
[10:57] Halkara
Thank you so much!
[10:59] SFX
Bzzz...
SIGN I've Been Killing Slimes
for 300 Years and
Maxed Out My Level
[11:11] Halkara
Master, you're so quick at defeating slimes.
[11:15] Azusa
I've been doing it for 300 years.
[11:18] Azusa
Okay, Halkara, give it a try.
[11:20] Halkara
Yah!
[11:21] SFX
Bob!
[11:23] Halkara
Yah!
[11:24] SFX
Boing!
[11:25] Azusa
Tch.
[11:26] Halkara
Yah!
[11:29] Halkara
I managed to defeat it.
[11:32] Guy
Wow, check it out...
[11:34] Old
Thank you for this blessing.
[11:37] Azusa
So... do you always get stared at this much?
[11:39] Halkara
Oh...
[11:40] Halkara
It's sort of my fate.
[11:43] Halkara
You should have more confidence,
too, even if you're small.
[11:46] Azusa
I-I'm not that small!
[11:49] Azusa
But...
[11:50] Azusa
It does seem curious that there are
more women staring at you, too.
[11:56] Natalie
Oh, an adventurer put that up this morning.
[12:00] Halkara
Oh, dear...
[12:01] Azusa
A "wanted" notice?
[12:03] Natalie
The reward for it is quite generous, isn't it?
[12:06] Natalie
I guess those who have it, have it...
[12:09] Natalie
and those who don't... don't.
[12:11] Natalie
I do all kinds of mundane
tasks, day in and day out!
[12:12] Azusa
"Searching for a female apothecary
in the province of Hrant
[12:15] Azusa
who makes a product called Nutri-Spirit.
[12:17] Natalie
Maybe I should become an adventurer, too...
[12:17] Azusa
Goes by the name Halkara.
[12:19] Azusa
She is currently on the run from Hrant.
[12:22] Azusa
Most notable physical feature:
her very large chest.
[12:25] Azusa
Reward of 15 million gold for
the one who captures her.
[12:31] Azusa
Posted by the demon Beelzebub."
[12:33] Laika
She's already made her move...
[12:36] Azusa
At least we have the lack of a physical
description going in our favor...
[12:40] Azusa
But it's just a matter of
time before she comes here.
[12:44] Azusa
Laika, can you evacuate my daughters
to some village far from here?
[12:48] Laika
Of course.
[12:50] Shalsha
Mother, I want to fight with you.
[12:53] Azusa
Thank you.
[12:54] Azusa
Your willingness alone is enough.
[12:56] Shalsha
But...
[12:57] Falfa
Shalsha, don't make things
difficult for Mama.
[13:00] Falfa
You might think what you're saying
makes you a good daughter,
[13:03] Falfa
but that's not what being
a good daughter means.
[13:05] Shalsha
Okay, Big Sister. I understand.
[13:08] Falfa
Good girl, Shalsha!
[13:12] Azusa
Thanks, you two.
[13:15] Laika
Now, we must hurry.
[13:17] Laika
I will revert to my dragon form
at once and take them away.
[13:20] Azusa
Right.
[13:26] Azusa
I hope the barrier I put up
this morning keeps her away.
[13:31] SFX
Bzzz...
[13:32] Azusa
Please don't let anything happen...
[13:40] Halkara
Having Nutri-Spirit on hand makes
me feel like I can fight all night!
[13:44] Azusa
I can't believe you can drink
that at a time like this.
[13:47] Halkara
The whole concept of my medicine-making
[13:50] Halkara
is to make things I'd
want to consume myself.
[13:53] Halkara
You're drinking it yourself,
aren't you, Master?
[13:56] Azusa
Huh? No, I haven't had any.
[13:59] Halkara
Huh?
[14:00] Halkara
But look.
[14:01] Azusa
I really didn't have any.
[14:04] Azusa
Also, Halkara, did you eat dinner?
[14:06] Azusa
What? No, I didn't.
[14:09] Halkara
Th-This is a joke, right?
[14:11] Azusa
I wouldn't joke at a time like this.
[14:14] SFX
Bzzz...
[14:15] SFX
Bzzz...
[14:16] Azusa
Hey...
[14:17] Halkara
Yes?
[14:17] Azusa
Beelzebub is a fly, right?
[14:17] SFX
Bzzz...
[14:20] Halkara
Yes, she's also known as
the Lord of the Flies.
[14:24] Azusa
I'm just wondering here, but...
[14:27] Halkara
C-Certainly not!
That's just a filthy little fly!
[14:30] Halkara
It's a lowly creature that
swarms around horse poop!
[14:33] Halkara
There's no way it's a
terrifying demon like...
[14:37] Beelzebub
Who are you calling a lowly creature?
[14:40] Halkara
Master, don't start doing
crazy voice impersonations!
[14:44] Azusa
I didn't say anything.
[14:46] Halkara
Then whose voice was that?
[14:48] Beelzebub
Mine!
[14:59] Beelzebub
My name is Beelzebub.
[15:02] Beelzebub
Excuse me for being nothing
but a lowly creature.
[15:06] Halkara
"Lowly creature" was just
a figure of speech!
[15:09] Halkara
I am but a speck of dust!
[15:10] Halkara
I had no intention of saying such a
thing about a great being like you!
[15:14] Beelzebub
It is that speck of dust
that I came here to find.
[15:20] Azusa
You've been hiding out in this
house all along, haven't you?
[15:23] Beelzebub
Of course.
[15:24] Beelzebub
I've been making myself at
home since she arrived.
[15:28] Azusa
Why didn't you reveal yourself right away?
[15:30] Beelzebub
I wanted to make sure this
woman truly was Halkara.
[15:34] Beelzebub
Also, flying around in houses
in the form of a fly
[15:38] Beelzebub
is my favorite way to spend
my extended vacations.
[15:41] Azusa
That's pretty unique!
[15:46] Beelzebub
Halkara, I went through
great pains to find you,
[15:49] Beelzebub
but it was very much worth it.
[15:52] Halkara
Please spare me! I'll do anything!
[15:56] Beelzebub
Oh?
[15:57] Beelzebub
Anything, you say?
That is what my ears heard.
[16:03] Azusa
All dealings with my pupil will
have to be made through me.
[16:06] Halkara
Master!
[16:07] Beelzebub
Witch of the Highlands,
you intend to stand in my way?
[16:11] Azusa
My pupil doesn't seem
interested in seeing you.
[16:14] Azusa
I'll have to ask you to leave.
[16:16] Beelzebub
When told to leave, it is only natural
that I want to leave even less.
[16:21] Beelzebub
Or... do you wish to fight me?
[16:26] Beelzebub
That's perfect.
[16:28] Beelzebub
I haven't fought in so long,
I was starting to get rusty.
[16:31] Azusa
Let's fight fair and square.
[16:34] Beelzebub
My thoughts exactly.
[16:41] Beelzebub
I suppose I'll go over there, too.
[16:45] Beelzebub
Are you sure about this? A mere human
is bound to regret defying me!
[16:50] Beelzebub
I will show you just how terrifying
the power of a high demon is—
[16:56] Azusa
Oh, the barrier.
[16:58] Azusa
Oh, no!
[17:03] Beelzebub
Did you not say we would
fight fair and square?!
[17:06] Beelzebub
What was that?!
[17:08] Azusa
Uh, I mean...
[17:09] Azusa
I didn't think it would work when
you tried to leave, too... uh...
[17:14] Azusa
Sorry.
[17:15] Beelzebub
You think apologizing will help?!
[17:17] Beelzebub
Honestly, talk about raining on my parade...
[17:22] Beelzebub
I challenge you...
[17:24] Azusa
Uh, aren't you exhausted already?
[17:26] Beelzebub
Please! This is nothing!
[17:30] Beelzebub
I feel ill...
[17:31] Beelzebub
And I'm having chills...
and I feel a bit nauseous...
[17:36] Beelzebub
I... can't...
[17:38] Azusa
Whoa, whoa!
[17:42] Halkara
Huh? What happened?
[17:43] Azusa
Halkara, help me out!
[17:47] Halkara
Master, what are you doing?
[17:50] Azusa
Making healing magic.
[17:52] Halkara
Huh?!
[17:53] Azusa
God of the earth, it is not yet known
whether your chaotic power is good or evil.
[17:59] Azusa
Grant that power unto me now.
[18:02] Azusa
Wait...
[18:03] Azusa
Hey, is healing magic...
[18:05] Azusa
something you can use on a demon?
[18:07] Halkara
Huh? I think... it should be fine...
[18:11] Azusa
Okay! If it's not, I blame you!
[18:14] Halkara
That's too heavy a burden to bear!
[18:19] Halkara
Her color looks a bit better!
[18:21] Azusa
All right! We're gonna keep doing this!
[18:28] Halkara
Master, she's awake!
[18:30] Azusa
Beelzebub, you okay?
[18:33] Beelzebub
Yes, the nausea has subsided.
[18:36] Beelzebub
And the chills are gone.
[18:37] Azusa
Thank goodness!
[18:39] Azusa
You just need to rest for a while now.
[18:42] Beelzebub
Witch of the Highlands,
I thought you were a coward,
[18:46] Beelzebub
but you are quite the remarkable woman.
[18:49] Azusa
If you died on me because of that,
I'd regret it for centuries.
[18:54] Beelzebub
Once I recover, I'd like to
drink your Nutri-Spirit again.
[18:58] Halkara
Huh?
[18:59] Azusa
But if you do, it might
almost kill you again!
[19:01] Beelzebub
What are you talking about?
[19:03] Halkara
I heard that you developed a high fever
and nearly died after drinking it...
[19:08] Beelzebub
Ah...
[19:09] Beelzebub
I drank it during an all-nighter,
and it filled me with the drive to work.
[19:13] Beelzebub
I took it too far and overworked myself,
[19:15] Beelzebub
which caused me to break out in a fever,
[19:17] Beelzebub
but only because I put too
much stress on my body.
[19:20] Both
Huh?
[19:21] Halkara
Your Nutri-Spirit is loved
[19:23] Halkara
not only by the Devil himself,
but by all demons.
[19:27] Beelzebub
Which is why I came to ask
you to make some more.
[19:30] Halkara
S-So that's what you wanted...
[19:32] Halkara
That's all? What a relief!
[19:37] Azusa
Hey.
[19:38] Halkara
I'm sorry!
[19:43] Both
Let's eat!
[19:45] Laika
I'm so relieved that it
was a misunderstanding.
[19:48] Halkara
I made another careless mistake...
[19:50] Azusa
Well, I'm just glad I didn't
end up fighting for no reason.
[19:54] Falfa
That's great, Halkara!
[19:56] Shalsha
Now you can make Nutri-Spirit again.
[19:58] Halkara
Oh, about that..
[20:00] Halkara
I was thinking of relocating
my factory to this province.
[20:04] Azusa
Moving it here? Why?
[20:06] Halkara
Because even if it was all a mistake,
[20:08] Halkara
I don't want to pay exorbitant taxes
to the town that abandoned me.
[20:14] Azusa
Reality!
[20:15] Halkara
Also... if I stay here, I can
live with you, Master...
[20:21] Azusa
Well, we still have rooms, so that's fine...
[20:24] Azusa
But we all take turns doing
the cooking and cleaning.
[20:27] Halkara
Of course! I'll work hard!
[20:30] Beelzebub
That sounds rather fun.
[20:32] Azusa
Beelzebub?!
[20:33] Azusa
What are you doing here?
[20:35] Beelzebub
Witch of the Highlands, Azusa...
[20:37] Beelzebub
I have yet to settle my score with you.
[20:39] Beelzebub
Next time, we'll fight without the barrier.
[20:41] Azusa
Uh-huh...
[20:43] Beelzebub
Of course, if you do anything else
that's fun, you must invite me!
[20:47] Beelzebub
I'll teach you a spell to summon me later.
[20:50] Azusa
Okay...
[20:51] Shalsha
Beelzebub.
[20:53] Falfa
Have some tea!
[20:55] Beelzebub
Indeed.
[20:56] Falfa
Beelzebub, can we ask you something?
[20:59] Beelzebub
Ask me anything.
[21:01] Shalsha
What is the current state of demon society?
[21:03] Beelzebub
The same dynasty has persisted
for several centuries.
[21:07] Beelzebub
It is quite peaceful.
[21:08] Falfa
Are you married?
[21:10] Beelzebub
D-Don't ask silly questions!
[21:12] Beelzebub
Only races that age quickly do such things!
[21:19] Beelzebub
Say... I'd like to adopt one of
these two as my own daughter.
[21:24] Azusa
I'm honored, but I must decline.
[21:27] Shalsha
Beelzebub, what kind of life do you live?
[21:30] Falfa
Do you live as a fly all the time?
[21:32] Beelzebub
W-Well, you see...
[21:34] Laika
Things have gotten more lively here.
[21:36] Azusa
A dragon,
[21:38] Azusa
spirits,
[21:39] Azusa
an elf,
[21:40] Azusa
and a demon, huh?
[21:42] Azusa
We're quite a crew, but it's starting
to feel like we're a family...
[21:45] Azusa
Maybe.
[21:47] Azusa
Amid the bustle, I get to
spend time taking it easy.
[21:51] Azusa
I was starting to think this
slow life would last forever...
[21:54] Azusa
but then, a problem arose the very next day.
[22:00] Laika
I will be returning to my own home.
[22:03] Azusa
Our family's falling apart!
