[00:04] Lionel
    Man, this stress is gonna make me go bald.
[00:08] Cheborg
    But the nobles agreed to offer you a loan.
[00:11] Lionel
    That's what's stressing me out.
[00:15] Lionel
    They'll keep telling me what to do,
    so I can't run things how I want.
[00:20] Charlotte
    The priests of Vienna's cult say her mercy
[00:22] Charlotte
    spreads throughout the
    heavens and fills the earth.
[00:26] Charlotte
    If that's true, then why are there
    still people suffering in poverty?
[00:31] Charlotte
    The age of Vienna's cult and the Rhodesian
     Empire in its thrall is coming to an end.
[00:36] Charlotte
    It is not some goddess
     who will save us. It is man.
[00:40] Charlotte
    The teachings of the great Solomon,
[00:43] Charlotte
    who ruled over the demon kings and
    commanded monsters, are our only salvation.
[00:48] Mob
    Solomon!
[00:50] Charlotte
    These are talismans of the great Solomon.
[00:50] Mob
    Down with the nobles!
[00:53] Mob
    Solomon!
[00:53] Charlotte
    I'm offering them at the
    low price of twenty copper coins.
[00:57] Mob
    I'll take one!
[00:57] Cheborg
    What's going on?
[00:58] Mob
    I want one, too!
[00:59] Cheborg
    Those seals don't look magical at all.
[01:02] Lionel
    It's a religious scam.
[01:06] Captain
    How dare you disrupt
    public order, lawbreaker!
[01:09] Captain
    Arrest them!
[01:11] Charlotte
    I have no cure for fools.
[01:20] Captain
    I can't breathe...
[01:22] Charlotte
    It was folly to defy the great Solomon.
[01:25] Cheborg
    Okay, haven't you gone far enough?
[01:28] Charlotte
    Wh-What?
[01:30] Charlotte
    Byaku!
[01:44] Byaku
    Hey, are you all right, Saintess?
[01:47] Charlotte
    Byaku, you idiot!
[01:48] Charlotte
    You're supposed to keep people
    like that way from me!
[01:52] Byaku
    Either way, we're getting out of here.
[01:54] Byaku
    I'm not fighting two former S-rankers.
[02:05] Cheborg
    That was teleportation magic!
[02:07] Lionel
    Only a handful of mages can
    cast such high-level spells.
[02:12] Lionel
    Just who were they...

    Episode 5 "The Road to Bordeaux"
[03:56] Mob
    Welcome!
[04:02] Miriam
    The spring festival is so much fun.
[04:05] Anessa
    Yeah.
[04:06] Belgrieve
    Are you two enjoying yourselves?
[04:08] Miriam
    Yes.
[04:10] Anessa
    You still can't get that off?
[04:16] Belgrieve
    I'm sorry, okay?
    Could you let go of me already?
[04:22] Ange
    No! I still don't forgive you!
[04:25] Hoffman
    Wow, Bel. That's one huge baby.
[04:28] Belgrieve
    Chief.
[04:29] Hoffman
    Everyone's finally agreed that we
    can fix up the road to Bordeaux.
[04:36] Belgrieve
    That's great news.
[04:38] Hoffman
    Now we can triumphantly
    respond to the countess.
[04:42] Hoffman
    Speaking of, Bel,
[04:43] Hoffman
    I'd like you to deliver this to her.
[04:47] Belgrieve
    Me?
[04:49] Hoffman
    You're skilled, but most importantly,
    Countess Bordeaux trusts you.
[04:54] Belgrieve
    I see. Very well.
[04:57] Hoffman
    Thanks.
[04:58] Angeline
    When are you going?
[04:59] Hoffman
    Soon would be best.
[05:01] Angeline
    In that case, you should come with us
     when we go to Orphen, Dad!
[05:06] Belgrieve
    Then that's what I'll do.
[05:08] Belgrieve
    I'll have you girls protect me.
[05:11] Angeline
    All right! When shall we depart?
[05:13] Belgrieve
    I could do tomorrow.
[05:15] Belgrieve
    But don't you want to say
    in Turnera a little longer?
[05:17] Angeline
    I'd much rather go on a journey with you!
[05:22] Angeline
    Hey!
[05:23] Angeline
    Tomorrow we're heading back
    to Orphen with my dad!
[05:27] Miriam
    What? Mr. Bel, you're
    coming out of retirement?
[05:30] Belgrieve
    No, not at all. I'm running an
    errand for the village chief.
[05:34] Anessa
    I see. That's too bad.
[05:37] Angeline
    Now that it's decided,
    let's head home and prepare!
[05:50] Belgrieve
    I'm going out. Be good while I'm gone.
[05:54] Belgrieve
    Now then...
[05:55] Angeline
    Dad, are you all ready?
[05:58] Belgrieve
    Yeah, let's be off.
    Look after the place while I'm gone.
[06:01] Kerry
    Sure thing. Go enjoy yourself.
[06:04] Kerry
    Bring back souvenirs.
[06:06] Belgrieve
    I'm not going there to have fun.
[06:42] Anessa
    We'll be in Bordeaux soon.
    I hope the sky doesn't open.
[06:53] Belgrieve
    I'm glad we made it, but would it be
    rude to show up soaked like this?
[06:58] Anessa
    We can visit tomorrow.
[07:06] Belgrieve
    They only had open seats at the counter.
     Business must be booming.
[07:06] Miriam
    What should I get?
[07:08] Anessa
    Everything looks so good. What about this?
[07:10] Angeline
    I'm hungry. What do you want, Dad?
[07:11] Miriam
    Sounds good. Let's get some of this.
[07:13] Anessa
    You want that?
[07:13] Miriam
    It'll be great! I promise!
[07:15] Anessa
    Should we order some, then?
[07:16] Miriam
    Yeah!
[07:16] Belgrieve
    Say, could I get some ale and anchovies?
[07:21] Belgrieve
    Huh? What?
[07:26] Belgrieve
    Wh-What is this?
[07:28] Angeline
    You put them on the bread, like this.
[07:41] Angeline
    Those aren't for beginners, Dad!
[07:44] Miriam
    They're super salty and have a unique smell.
[07:49] Belgrieve
    You should've warned me beforehand.
[07:52] Anessa
    I'm sorry. Some people like them,
     so I thought you might.
[07:56] Charlotte
    You don't appreciate
    the appeal of anchovies?
[07:59] Charlotte
    Listen here, Byaku.
[08:01] Charlotte
    Anyone who calls them salty or smelly
    might as well be saying what a hick they are.
[08:07] Byaku
    Whatever. You're only used to them
     because you're from Lucrecia.
[08:12] Byaku
    That stuff is gross.
[08:14] Belgrieve
    Lucrecia, huh?
[08:16] Belgrieve
    They're so young, yet so far from home.
[08:20] Belgrieve
    Vestments?
[08:22] Belgrieve
    Come to think of it, the head temple
    of the cult of Vienna is in Lucrecia.
[08:27] Charlotte
    Gracious. What am I even doing
    out here in the middle of nowhere?
[08:33] Byaku
    Shut up. You talk too much.
[08:37] Charlotte
    That's enough, Byaku! How dare you speak to your master that way?!
[08:45] Charlotte
    Th-Thank...
[08:49] Charlotte
    M-Mind your own business!
[08:52] Belgrieve
    Huh?
[08:53] Charlotte
    Nobody asked for your help!
[08:56] Charlotte
    Let go! Unhand me at—
[08:59] Byaku
    Forgive her for being so unsociable.
[09:01] Byaku
    Sorry for the trouble. Let's go, Saintess.
[09:06] Angeline
    Someone you know?
[09:08] Belgrieve
    No.
[09:09] Gort
    What was that?!
[09:11] Gort
    Just who do you think you are?!
[09:14] Gort
    I'm the great Gort the Thunderbolt!
[09:16] Anessa
    All I see is a big fish
    in a small pond acting up.
[09:19] Anessa
    I've met plenty of guys like you.
[09:22] Gort
    Screw you!
[09:23] Gort
    I won't go easy 'cause you're a woman!
[09:29] Anessa
    You'll die young if you go picking fights
[09:32] Anessa
    when you can't gauge your opponents,
     Mr. Thunderbolt.
[09:35] Mob
    You heard her!
[09:37] Mob
    Get him, girlie!
[09:38] Anessa
    Guys like him give adventurers a bad name.
[09:42] Angeline
    So a swordsman lost to Anessa the archer?
[09:45] Angeline
    Do people really call him by that title?
[09:48] Bartender
    Obviously not.
[09:51] Bartender
    He's C-ranker who gave himself that nickname.
[09:55] Angeline
    Lame.
[09:57] Belgrieve
    Angeline, you of all people—
[09:59] Customer A
    Boy, that was satisfying!
[10:02] Customer A
    You laid Gort's annoying hide
     out with one blow!
[10:05] Customer B
    You must be a pretty strong adventurer.
[10:08] Customer B
    What's your rank?
[10:09] Anessa
    She and I are Triple A.
[10:11] Miriam
    Heck yeah!
[10:11] Anessa
    And the girl with the
     black hair over there is S.
[10:15] Customer 1
    What? She's rank S?
[10:17] Customer 2
    Wait, don't tell me you're
     the Black-Haired Valkyrie.
[10:21] Customer 2
    What? The demon king slayer?
[10:24] Angeline
    I suppose.
[10:25] Customer 5
    Let me treat you!
[10:27] Customer 6
    Me too, me too!
[10:29] Angeline
    I can't eat all of this.
[10:32] Belgrieve
    Neither can your old man.
[10:34] Customer 1
    What? You're her dad?
[10:37] Customer 2
    That red hair...
[10:38] Customer 3
    The peg leg...
[10:40] Customer 3
    Are you Belgrieve the Red Ogre?
[10:46] Angeline
    Yes! My dad is Belgrieve the Red—
[10:49] Belgrieve
    A-Ange.
[10:51] Angeline
    Sorry...
[10:54] Sasha
    I knew it!
[10:56] Sasha
    I flew right over when I heard
    rumors that you were here.
[11:00] Sasha
    I would've come to meet you
     if you'd told me you were coming.
[11:03] Angeline
    We were filthy and wet from the rain,
    so we decided to visit tomorrow.
[11:08] Sasha
    The Bordeaux family owes you a great deal.
[11:10] Sasha
    We don't mind if you're wet or filthy.
[11:15] Angeline
    What should we do?
[11:17] Anessa
    If they're inviting us over, then why not?
[11:19] Miriam
    We get to sleep at a mansion, right?
[11:21] Miriam
    I bet their beds are fluffy!
[11:24] Angeline
    What say you, Dad?
[11:26] Belgrieve
    Well, I am here to deliver a letter.
[11:30] Belgrieve
    Now that we've been invited,
    we have no reason to decline.
[11:34] Sasha
    In that case, come with me, everyone.
[11:40] Belgrieve
    It's really coming down.
[11:44] Angeline
    I feel so funny in flowy clothes.
[11:49] Belgrieve
    You're just not used to it.
[11:51] Belgrieve
    It looks great on you.
[11:52] Angeline
    Really? In that case, I'm okay with it!
[11:55] Seren
    I'm so glad you all made it.
[11:57] Angeline
    Hey, Seren. Have you been well?
[12:00] Seren
    I have. You're looking well too, Ms. Angeline,
[12:03] Seren
    Thank you for coming all the way here.
[12:07] Belgrieve
    We're sorry to impose
    in the middle of the night.
[12:10] Seren
    My sister is waiting for you.
    I'll show you to her.
[12:13] Belgrieve
    Thank you.
[12:15] Angeline
    I'm going with you.
[12:17] Angeline
    Helvetica is the one who
    tried to drag you off.
[12:23] Belgrieve
    We're just going to talk about the road.
[12:26] Angeline
    I'm going with you.
[12:32] Seren
    Pardon us.
[12:34] Helvetica
    Mr. Belgrieve!
[12:40] Helvetica
    Thank you for coming.
[12:42] Helvetica
    Your gallant figure is
    certainly a sight for sore eyes.
[12:45] Belgrieve
    I'm honored, Countess.
    It's good to see you, too.
[12:48] Belgrieve
    This is my daughter, Angeline.
[12:50] Helvetica
    So you're Ms. Angeline!
[12:53] Helvetica
    I cannot thank you enough
    for rescuing Seren.
[12:57] Angeline
    Are you the woman who
    wants to be my mother?
[13:02] Belgrieve
    H-Hey, Ange...
[13:04] Angeline
    Stay out of this, Dad.
[13:07] Angeline
    I'll never forgive you for trying to
     steal my dad while I was gone.
[13:11] Angeline
    But it would be for the best
    if he had someone nice around...
[13:15] Helvetica
    My! Ms. Angeline, does this mean
[13:18] Helvetica
    you might accept a relationship
    between me and Mr. Belgrieve?
[13:23] Angeline
    You've lost your mind if you think I'll hand
    him over to someone who tried to cart him off.
[13:28] Angeline
    Don't think you can become
    my mom that easily!
[13:33] Ash
    How dare the likes of you speak to her so?!
[13:35] Helvetica
    Silence, Ash.
[13:39] Ash
    B-But...
[13:40] Helvetica
    You would defy me?
[13:44] Ash
    Forgive me.
[13:47] Belgrieve
    You're being rude, too.
[13:49] Belgrieve
    I won't be having any such
    relationship with Lady Helvetica.
[13:53] Seren
    Enough of this, Sister.
[13:55] Seren
    You told me you'd already given up on this.
[13:58] Helvetica
    But, Seren...
[14:02] Belgrieve
    P-Pardon me.
[14:03] Belgrieve
    Might we proceed with
    the business at hand?
[14:07] Helvetica
    Forgive me.
[14:09] Helvetica
    I've read the letter.
[14:12] Helvetica
    I'm delighted to have your cooperation.
[14:16] Belgrieve
    Thank you. In that case, we'd like you
    to advise us on the specifics of your plan.
[14:22] Helvetica
    Of course. Could I ask you
     to give me some time?
[14:26] Helvetica
    Something of a troublesome
     problem has arisen, you see.
[14:31] Sign Right
    Rodina
[14:31] Sign Middle
    Bordeaux
[14:31] Sign Left
    Hazel
[14:32] Helvetica
    West of Bordeaux, there is
    a small town called Hazel.
[14:37] Helvetica
    Count Malta, who rules the area,
[14:39] Helvetica
    has raised objections
    to sending laborers elsewhere
[14:43] Helvetica
    when he's in the middle
    of repairing his own roads.
[14:48] Belgrieve
    That sounds reasonable to me.
[14:51] Helvetica
    But the construction in Hazel
    is already 90 percent complete.
[14:56] Helvetica
    And we previously agreed that sending workers
    on to the next project would be no issue.
[15:04] Seren
    In other words, he's doing this on purpose.

    Estogal City
[15:07] Seren
    Count Malta was relegated to
    Bordeaux from Estogal's capital city.
[15:13] Seren
    He apparently lost a struggle for power.
[15:17] Seren
    Because of this, he scorns Bordeaux
[15:19] Seren
    as a backwater county
    and finds fault in all we do.
[15:24] Helvetica
    His behavior has escalated
    since our father's passing.
[15:29] Helvetica
    I'm simply not a strong enough leader.
[15:31] Seren
    Most influential figures are
     allied with the Bordeaux family,
[15:35] Seren
    but some nobles are unhappy
    that my sister has taken over.
[15:42] Helvetica
    We suspect Count Malta is egging them on,
    but we have no concrete proof.
[15:49] Belgrieve
    Sounds like a complicated situation.
[15:52] Belgrieve
    But I'm not sure you should be
    discussing it with outsiders like us.
[16:00] Helvetica
    I'm terribly sorry.
[16:03] Sasha
    There you are!
[16:06] Ash
    Lady Sasha, you are a noble.
    Please try to act like one.
[16:09] Sasha
    Oh, I know!
[16:11] Sasha
    This man here is Ashcroft.
[16:14] Sasha
    He may be young,
    but he serves the Bordeaux family.
[16:18] Sasha
    He's inexperienced,
    but he's also a swordsman.
[16:21] Sasha
    Would you be willing to instruct him as well?
[16:24] Ash
    Kindly refrain. I have no need for training.
[16:29] Sasha
    Honestly, you're so stubborn.
[16:32] Helvetica
    Sasha, could you please entertain
    Ms. Angeline and Mr. Belgrieve?
[16:37] Sasha
    Yes, of course.
[16:38] Helvetica
    Now then, if you don't mind
    waiting a bit for my reply,
[16:43] Helvetica
    please make yourselves at home until then.
[16:51] Sasha
    I'm thinking about throwing a
    small party. What do you think?
[16:55] Angeline
    Good idea. I'll invite Ane and Miri, too.
[16:58] Angeline
    What about you, Dad?
[16:59] Belgrieve
    I might rest a bit.
[17:03] Sasha
    But I wanted to talk to you, too.
[17:07] Belgrieve
    I'm sorry. Ange, don't stay up too late.
[17:11] Angeline
    Okay.
[17:13] Angeline
    Helvetica isn't nearly maternal
     enough to be my mom.
[17:17] Anessa
    And how would you define "maternal"?
[17:20] Angeline
    An open heart!
[17:21] Angeline
    I want to feel enveloped by love.
[17:23] Miriam
    But that might not be what
     Mr. Bel is looking for.
[17:29] Angeline
    What kind of women do men like?
[17:33] Anessa
    How should we know?
[17:36] Anessa
    Women who are kind, maybe?
[17:38] Miriam
    No way! Most men aren't looking
    at what's on the inside.
[17:43] Sasha
    I-Isn't that a bit extreme?
[17:46] Miriam
    Hardly. The first thing
    men look at are a woman's breasts.
[17:49] Miriam
    Then her legs, then her face.
[17:52] Miriam
    Can't you feel them staring
    when you're dressed lightly?
[17:57] Sasha
    I see. I do think I know what
    you're talking about.
[18:01] Miriam
    Right? Especially when
     it comes to your chest...
[18:07] Angeline
    Why did you go quiet
    when you looked at me?
[18:11] Miriam
    I'm sorry, Ange.
[18:13] Angeline
    Why are you apologizing?
[18:15] Angeline
    Well, whatever.
    You're just saying boobs matter, right?
[18:19] Miriam
    You bet. Large breasts are
    definitely maternal material.
[18:23] Miriam
    Most men can't resist.
[18:31] Sasha
    Doesn't that make you
    quite motherly, Ms. Miri?
[18:35] Angeline
    No, not at all.
[18:37] Anessa
    Not one bit.
[18:40] Miriam
    That's totally unrelated!
[18:45] Miriam
    Jeez!
[18:56] Belgrieve
    I'm still stiff.
[18:58] Ash
    Impressive.
[19:00] Ash
    Your form and the precision of your blade
    make it hard to believe you have a peg leg.
[19:05] Belgrieve
    Thank you.
[19:07] Ash
    But you still don't merit Lady Sasha's praise.
[19:11] Belgrieve
    Yes, I have to say I agree.
[19:16] Belgrieve
    I hear you're a swordsman as well.
[19:19] Ash
    I am. I'm not as good as Lady Sasha,
    but I can wield a blade better than you.
[19:26] Belgrieve
    I can see why he's upset that his mistress
    is fawning over a stranger
[19:30] Belgrieve
    who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
[19:32] Belgrieve
    But he's honestly trying to evaluate my
    skill rather than being swayed by rumors.
[19:38] Belgrieve
    I see. Lady Helvetica must feel safe
    with someone like you by her side.
[19:44] Ash
    Don't flatter me.
[19:46] Ash
    I don't care if you're the Red Ogre or not.
[19:48] Ash
    Don't get ahead of yourself.
[19:50] Belgrieve
    I wouldn't dream of it.
    I appreciate the warning.
[19:54] Sasha
    Good morning, Master.
[19:56] Sasha
    If you're willing, I'd like to duel.
[19:59] Belgrieve
    That's fine.
[20:01] Sasha
    I'll make you go all out against me today!
[20:04] Ash
    Pardon me, my lady.
[20:06] Ash
    But I don't believe this man is as
    good a swordsman as you say.
[20:11] Sasha
    What?
[20:12] Ash
    I'm having trouble believing
    you lost to him.
[20:15] Ash
    He must have played dirty.
[20:17] Sasha
    Silence! Try beating me
    before you talk like that.
[20:20] Ash
    I couldn't beat you, Lady Sasha.
[20:23] Ash
    But I wouldn't lose to him.
[20:27] Sasha
    How dare you insult my instructor?!
[20:30] Sasha
    Master!
[20:32] Belgrieve
    Yes?
[20:33] Sasha
    Please trounce this fool
    so he sees the truth.
[20:38] Belgrieve
    What?
[20:40] Ash
    Very well. I shall wake
    you from your delusions.
[20:45] Ash
    Come, Red Ogre.
[20:47] Ash
    I shall defeat you soundly.
[20:49] Belgrieve
    Uh, okay...
SIGN    I've heard rumors of the demon king slayer, too.
[20:59] Byaku
    You should delay your plans.
[21:01] Byaku
    It'd be reckless to antagonize both
    the Bordeaux family and her, milord.
SIGN    Sounds like Solomon wasn't very powerful after all.
[21:11] Byaku
    If you screw up, your head will roll.
[21:13] Byaku
    Be patient.
SIGN    I'm heading to Bordeaux after this.
[21:18] Byaku
    Hey, I just told you to delay your plans.
SIGN    Delay them to what end?
SIGN    I've endured years in this backwater waiting for this day.
SIGN    The powerful late Count Bordeaux is no more.
SIGN    His daughters may be talented,
SIGN    but compared to the wicked nobles in the capital, they're nothing.
SIGN    Nobles are different from the common rabble.
SIGN    And those girls ingratiate themselves
SIGN    by frolicking with commoners and cultivating the land.
SIGN    You listen to me. We'll act tonight, just as planned.
SIGN    Wealth and power...
SIGN    You understand that much, don't you, Saint of Solomon?
