[00:02] ---
    Abyss Razor.
[00:04] ---
    Starting now, I will give your eye
    a better purpose.
[00:12] ---
    Starting today, you are my tool.
[00:15] ---
    Come along.
[00:22] ---
    Lord Abel.
[01:57] ---
    Around the time when Mash and the gang
    were victorious over Magia Lupus...
[02:02] ---
    I wonder how Mash is doing now.
[02:06] ---
    I hope people didn't find out he can't
    use magic and make a big deal out of it.
[02:14] ---
    I'm in trouble if he doesn't do his best
    to become Divine Visionary.
[02:18] ---
    It's part of my future planning, after all.
[02:23] ---
    You don't need to work?
[02:26] ---
    Time on screen is better than work.
[02:28] ---
    Time on screen is important.
[02:30] ---
    Yeah, it's important.
[02:33] ---
    You want some more tea?
[02:35] ---
    Yeah.
[02:38] ---
    Allow me to regale it again.
[02:40] ---
    This story is where Mash Burnedead with
    no magical powers enters Easton Magic Academy,
[02:47] ---
    Hip, hip, hooray!
[02:47] ---
    and becomes Divine Visionary...
[02:49] ---
    Wait, they're still getting carried away!
[02:52] ---
    Main character! Main character!
    Main character! Main character!
[02:55] ---
    Heroine! Heroine! I am heroine!
[03:00] ---
    You are hero?
[03:01] ---
    Oh yeah!
[03:02] ---
    Hip, hip, hooray!
[03:06] ---
    Hip, hip, hooray!
[03:08] ---
    How long are they going to do that?
[03:10] ---
    How long are they doing that?
[03:13] ---
    Oh, is it all right if I go to the bathroom?
[03:19] ---
    He must’ve been holding it all this time.
[03:23] ---
    Anyway, guess that's over.
[03:26] ---
    Right.
[03:28] ---
    All the students that were turned into puppets
    are back to normal now.
[03:32] ---
    But this school
    is such a hive of lawlessness.
[03:36] ---
    And that thrill accelerates romance.
[03:40] ---
    What the heck?
[03:44] ---
    By the way, where is that handsome punk?
    Did he lose or something?
[03:48] ---
    I don't think Lance would lose.
[03:51] ---
    Huh? That was really fast...
[03:55] ---
    Who are you?
[03:58] ---
    Get lost.
[04:04] ---
    Ow! What the hell d'ya...
[04:19] ---
    What's with the wounds?
    Did you lose against someone?
[04:27] ---
    You couldn't even rise
    to the top of this school.
[04:31] ---
    You're pretty pathetic.
[04:34] ---
    But I do appreciate you...
[04:38] ---
    for giving us intel
    about Headmaster Wahlberg.
[04:47] ---
    My hands are moving on their own.
[04:51] ---
    You didn't find the one
    we're searching for though.
[04:54] ---
    But it turns out that
    we don't need you anymore.
[05:02] ---
    We don’t need—
[05:03] ---
    We can all party with orange juice
    and cream puffs.
[05:07] ---
    Huh?
[05:09] ---
    What's with that brat
    who can't read the room?
[05:13] ---
    Huh? It kinda feels like...
[05:16] ---
    Mash, this is bad. We're in no mood
    for stuff like that right now.
[05:20] ---
    Wait, where did you get
    those cream puffs from?
SIGN    SPLCK SPLCK SPLCK SPLCK SPLCK
[05:43] ---
    Was it coincidence!?
[05:45] ---
    Was it intentional?
[05:52] ---
    Um, sorry to bother you, but we were gonna
    eat those, so could you give them back?
[05:59] ---
    He's going to eat cream puffs in that state?
[06:05] ---
    Shock!
SIGN    SHOCK
[06:08] ---
    Insolent boy.
[06:11] ---
    What is this headache?
[06:13] ---
    Is it resonance?
[06:17] ---
    But I didn't have this headache
    when I arrived.
[06:21] ---
    It can't possibly be
    this guy that just came in?
[06:27] ---
    Really, him?
[06:33] ---
    Huh?
[06:34] ---
    Is this guy
    the one we've been searching for?
[06:38] ---
    What?
[06:40] ---
    Oh, fine.
[06:42] ---
    First, to finish what I came here for.
[06:48] ---
    Killing Abel as planned!
[06:53] ---
    It's useless.
[06:55] ---
    Can’t you see? You’re no match...
[06:58] ---
    for someone like me.
[07:01] ---
    Now die.
[07:12] ---
    Abyss!
[07:16] ---
    Mask Guy.
[07:18] ---
    I-I'm sorry, Mash.
[07:23] ---
    It looks like I won't be able...
    to eat cream puffs with you.
[07:38] ---
    Take this.
[07:40] ---
    A magic handkerchief.
[07:43] ---
    My attack was not fatal?
[07:50] ---
    That Mushroom Head threw a rock at me
    right before my spell to alter the trajectory.
[07:57] ---
    So this guy really is...
[08:02] ---
    Abel's lapdog, huh? How admirable.
[08:05] ---
    Is that your gratitude for being adopted
    despite being an eyesore of society?
[08:10] ---
    That's really revolting.
[08:17] ---
    He's stomping the ground?
[08:31] ---
    He caught it.
[08:32] ---
    Amazing!
[08:36] ---
    Hey. You're quite the rebel.
[08:41] ---
    I won't hesitate to kill you too!
[08:46] ---
    Huh? Why are you licking a rock?
[08:50] ---
    Are you in that kind of phase?
[08:53] ---
    Anyway...
[08:56] ---
    I've gotta get Mask Guy to an infirmary.
[08:59] ---
    Try to stop me
    and I'll beat the stuffing out of you.
[09:02] ---
    Beat the stuffing outta me, huh?
[09:05] ---
    All right.
[09:08] ---
    How does 30 minutes sound for how long
    he has before he's beyond help?
[09:15] ---
    Will you be able to save him?
[09:25] ---
    What's wrong?
[09:26] ---
    I thought you were going
    to beat the stuffing outta me?
[09:34] ---
    Or are you all talk?
[09:45] ---
    He can't win.
[09:47] ---
    There's too big of a gap
    in the qualities they were born with.
[09:51] ---
    Qualities.
[09:53] ---
    Mother often said to me it was only
    by chance that we were born privileged.
[10:02] ---
    Birthright, talent, appearance.
[10:06] ---
    It was chance that bestowed
    those advantages on people.
[10:11] ---
    That's why...
[10:12] ---
    Don't zone out now, Abel!
[10:16] ---
    Carborain!
[10:21] ---
    It's impossible.
[10:23] ---
    We are unquestionably inferior.
[10:27] ---
    We cannot win against him.
[10:30] ---
    Abyss was a fool.
[10:32] ---
    He didn't have to make an effort
    to protect me at all.
[10:36] ---
    I think he was happy.
[10:42] ---
    He was all alone for the longest time.
[10:46] ---
    It was so tough for him to keep living.
[10:50] ---
    And that's why I think
    he was happy that you needed him.
[10:58] ---
    I thought about how I would feel
    if I was in a similar situation.
[11:02] ---
    So...
[11:04] ---
    I'm going to save him.
[11:06] ---
    I think Mask Guy
    wants to eat cream puffs, too.
[11:10] ---
    It was only by chance
    that we were born privileged.
[11:15] ---
    Birthright, talent, appearance.
    They're mere coincidences.
[11:20] ---
    That's why, Abel...
[11:22] ---
    Learn to put yourself in another's position.
[11:27] ---
    If you can do that...
[11:29] ---
    You will become
    just a little bit kinder to others.
[11:35] ---
    Yes, just a little... kinder to others.
[11:43] ---
    Just accept it!
[11:46] ---
    Carborain!
[11:53] ---
    L-Lord Abel...
[11:56] ---
    Abyss!
[11:59] ---
    It's the Eye of the Devil! Run!
[12:02] ---
    Stay away from me!
[12:04] ---
    I wish I didn't give birth to you!
[12:08] ---
    I'm sorry.
    I'm sorry I was ever born.
[12:15] ---
    I've heard you possess the Eye of the Devil?
[12:19] ---
    I'm sorry.
    I'll be careful not to make eye contact.
[12:23] ---
    There's no need to hide it.
[12:26] ---
    Will you use that eye for my sake?
[12:31] ---
    I can't possibly do that.
[12:33] ---
    Because of this eye,
    everyone will avoid you as well.
[12:37] ---
    That doesn't matter to me.
[12:41] ---
    Starting now,
    I will give your eye a better purpose.
[12:50] ---
    Starting today, you are my tool.
[12:53] ---
    Come along.
[12:58] ---
    P-Please...
[13:01] ---
    P-Please... run while... you can...
[13:08] ---
    Always so noble.
[13:11] ---
    Mother.
[13:14] ---
    And Abyss.
[13:18] ---
    Carborain!
[13:25] ---
    Is that all you can manage?
[13:28] ---
    You poor, pitiful, pathetic, miserable thing!
[13:31] ---
    Hurry up, or you'll run out of time!
[13:34] ---
    Mash.
[13:36] ---
    This is bad.
[13:37] ---
    Not only are those carbon-nugget things
    rock-solid, but there's too many of them.
[13:44] ---
    Mash is slowly pushing forward,
    but he doesn't have enough time to get up close.
[13:50] ---
    But then, if I headed over to help Mash,
    the two left here will be in danger.
[13:55] ---
    I can't move from here.
[13:59] ---
    I'm getting bored of this.
[14:02] ---
    Carbo Heavy Rain!
[14:04] ---
    What? A higher-ranked version!?
[14:08] ---
    Oh no. It's getting even more hopeless
    to make it in time.
[14:12] ---
    Should I go assist him? Damn it.
[14:19] ---
    Mash!
[14:30] ---
    The strong take from the weak,
    and that's their right.
[14:35] ---
    And...
[14:38] ---
    The weak oppose the strong,
    and that's also their right.
[14:44] ---
    What's the meaning of this, Abel?
[14:48] ---
    I'm seeing for myself what is righteous,
[14:52] ---
    with my own hands.
[14:55] ---
    Hmph. I see.
[15:01] ---
    Carbo Heavy Rain!
[15:13] ---
    Too bad.
[15:15] ---
    You can't win with this kind of magic...
[15:18] ---
    Hey there.
[15:29] ---
    You're the first to break through
    my rigid epidermis.
[15:35] ---
    Even though I was caught off guard.
[15:38] ---
    What magic did you use?
[15:39] ---
    Huh?
[15:41] ---
    I'm asking you what your personal magic is.
[15:44] ---
    Huh... Um...
[15:48] ---
    Power.
[15:49] ---
    Power!?
[15:51] ---
    Such magic exists!?
[15:53] ---
    Hmph. So you're refusing to answer me.
[15:57] ---
    Whatever.
[16:00] ---
    That's...
[16:01] ---
    the Spellflection Mirror!
[16:03] ---
    A powerful magical item that reflects
    any and every spell cast its way!
[16:08] ---
    And the stronger the spell,
    the more fearsome the mirror makes it!
[16:13] ---
    The most feared magical item
    that makes every magic user cower in terror.
[16:18] ---
    I thought the Bureau of Magic
    was guarding it. So why...
[16:22] ---
    Mash, don't!
[16:23] ---
    We magic users don't stand a chance
    against that thing!
[16:27] ---
    It'll send your spells right back at you!
[16:30] ---
    One mistake and you're as good as dead!
[16:33] ---
    If you're gonna beat it,
    you have to do it without using magic.
[16:38] ---
    But such a feat...
[16:41] ---
    It's because you got in my way.
[16:43] ---
    I'll make all of you regret it.
[16:48] ---
    Now, use your magic.
[16:51] ---
    You can fall to your ruin
    with your own magical power...
[16:56] ---
    if you can even do...
[17:08] ---
    It's...
[17:09] ---
    It's...
[17:11] ---
    It's...
[17:12] ---
    It's not magic!
[17:15] ---
    Then, that time...
[17:18] ---
    And that time...
[17:20] ---
    And that time...
[17:21] ---
    And that time...
[17:23] ---
    And that time...
[17:25] ---
    This, that, and just now!
[17:32] ---
    Y-You mean nothing until now was magic?
[17:35] ---
    Mash did everything with his body alone?
[17:37] ---
    Seriously?
[17:38] ---
    - That would be unbelievable.
    - Totally unbelievable, right?
[17:41] ---
    That would be like something
    out of a fantasy story.
[17:43] ---
    Like, exactly from a fantasy story.
[17:47] ---
    That sounds like a fantasy story.
[17:53] ---
    What? It didn't work against him at all!
[18:03] ---
    Did this appear because I touched that kid?
[18:06] ---
    That headache earlier, too.
[18:09] ---
    So he really is...
[18:13] ---
    I see.
[18:20] ---
    What is that?
[18:27] ---
    Today was surprisingly productive
    thanks to meeting you.
[18:34] ---
    My name is Cell War.
SIGN    INNOCENT ZERO

[18:40] ---
    I remembered I had an urgent errand,
    so I'll be going now.
[18:43] ---
    But we'll be seeing each other again soon.
[18:48] ---
    Bye-bye.
[18:54] ---
    If you're going home,
    I'm thankful that you're going home.
[18:58] ---
    Now, let's take Mask Guy
    to the infirmary.
[19:02] ---
    You don't have to worry about that.
[19:05] ---
    Thanks to the handkerchief you gave him,
    it looks like things won't be too serious.
[19:12] ---
    P-Please treat me...
    to cream puffs next time.
[19:20] ---
    Mask Guy.
[19:22] ---
    I will take responsibility
    and take Abyss back.
[19:32] ---
    I give you my thanks,
    Mash Burnedead.
[19:35] ---
    I will make sure to return the favor.
[19:44] ---
    I guess that settles it.
[19:46] ---
    Yeah.
[19:47] ---
    Wait, hold up!
[19:48] ---
    Whaddaya mean,
    none of that was magic!?
[19:51] ---
    That's actually amazing,
    but isn't it terrible if people found out?
[19:54] ---
    It's terrible, Mash! Being expelled
    might not be the end of it!

    He's losing it!
[20:07] ---
    He must have a really important reason.
[20:10] ---
    Anyway, we've gotta protect Mash's secret
    so people won't find out.
[20:15] ---
    Right!
[20:16] ---
    If Mash's record gets tarnished,
    it'll affect our married life, too.
[20:21] ---
    Anyway, we can shelter Mash for now,
    at least until we figure out a plan.
[20:26] ---
    Thanks, guys.
[20:28] ---
    He just said "thanks"!
[20:29] ---
    I wasn't expecting him
    to acknowledge everything.
[20:31] ---
    But this is turning into a hell of a mess.
[20:34] ---
    If they find out we're protecting Mash's secret,
    we'll definitely be in trouble, too.
[20:39] ---
    We might be expelled, too.
[20:40] ---
    No!
[20:42] ---
    I heard everything!
[20:45] ---
    A student who can't use magic in our school?
    That's an outrage!
[20:49] ---
    I'm telling the teachers!
[20:52] ---
    We're in trouble!
[20:53] ---
    The students who were turned into puppets...
[20:55] ---
    They had woken up!
[20:57] ---
    A student at a magic school can't use magic?
[21:00] ---
    Report him! Report, report, report!
SIGN    HONK
[21:05] ---
    This time has finally come.
[21:09] ---
    He's not phased at all!
[21:13] ---
    People have finally caught on
    to Mash's inability to use magic.
[21:18] ---
    What will you do, Mash!?

[23:14] ---
    But I have found it. What was lost.

    I see. At last...

    At last, my most earnest wish will come true.
