[00:00] Pandora's Actor
    "Wait! Please wait!
    Listen to what I'm saying!"
[00:05] Pandora's Actor
    With those words,
    he stopped swinging his sword.
[00:09] Albedo
    May I say something?
[00:11] Pandora's Actor
    Yes?
[00:13] Albedo
    Do you think that Lord Ains,
[00:14] Albedo
    as the Sorcerer King and absolute
    ruler of the Tomb of Nazarick,
[00:19] Albedo
    would ever drop to his knees like that?
[00:23] Pandora's Actor
    You're right...
[00:24] Pandora's Actor
    Lord Ains would have never
    done something like that.
[00:27] Ains
    No, you did an excellent job.
[00:31] Ains
    If that is all it takes for an enemy
    to drop their guard, why not do it?
[00:37] Ains
    You lose nothing by getting on your knees.
[00:41] Ains
    On top of that, it makes it easy for your
    opponent to grossly underestimate you.
[00:47] Ains
    You've set up quite a poisonous trap.
[00:50] Pandora's Actor
    Yes!
[00:51] Ains
    But we still do not
    have enough information.
[00:54] Ains
    I don't fully understand one of his powers.
[00:57] Pandora's Actor
    His barrier.
[01:00] Ains
    Since Albedo, who has Ginnungagap,
[01:01] Ains
    was the only one who could
    break through that barrier...
[01:04] Ains
    It was probably created using a world item.
[01:10] Ains
    His item is probably similar to the
[01:12] Ains
    Depiction of Nature and
    Society that I gave Aura.
[01:16] Pandora's Actor
    Please wait, Lord Ains.
[01:18] Pandora's Actor
    I saw Riku's HP drop when he
    cast the World Isolation Barrier.
[01:24] Pandora's Actor
    Perhaps it is some kind of skill?
[01:27] Ains
    That's true. I've never heard of
    a world item that uses your HP.
[01:33] Ains
    And his HP dropped when he used
     other skills as well, correct?
[01:38] Pandora's Actor
    Yes. His HP dropped when he
    used skills like teleportation.
[01:42] Ains
    There are world items that have
    various uses, like this one.
[01:49] Ains
    But the ability to strengthen weapons and
    armor, teleportation, and barrier creation...
[01:53] Ains
    Those abilities are far too
    different from one another.
[01:56] Ains
    As things stand, we cannot say for certain
    that those skills are the work of a world item.
[02:02] Ains
    It seems there's a need to take a
    loss against this Riku one more time.
[02:08] Ains
    I don't like to lose on purpose, either.
[02:11] Ains
    But we must know everything about the enemy
     in order to achieve an absolute victory.
[02:17] Albedo/Pandora's Actor
    Yes!
[02:19] Momonga; Internal
    I've confirmed that NPCs and the people
    from this world can be resurrected,
[02:24] Momonga; Internal
    but that doesn't necessarily
    mean that I can be.
[02:29] Momonga; Internal
    No, thinking about the history here...
[02:32] Momonga; Internal
    If the Six Great Gods and the
    Eight Greed Kings were players like me...
[02:36] Momonga; Internal
    Since their stories all
    end with their deaths,
[02:39] Momonga; Internal
    it might be impossible for me to resurrect.
[02:43] Momonga; Internal
    I have to keep that in mind when I act.
[02:48] Momonga; Internal
    In other words, a loss that doesn't lead
    to my death should be an acceptable loss.
[02:54] Ains
    Well, then, Cocytus and the others should
    be attacking the royal capital about now.
[02:59] Ains
    I'll head there, as well.
[03:01] Ains
    I have to be there to finish things up.
[03:05] Albedo
    Lord Ains, do you really need to go
    personally to deal with such trivial matters?
[03:13] Ains
    I have certain standards
    about acting as a villain.
[03:17] Ains
    Though I can't compare
    to Ulbert and the others.
[03:20] Albedo
    I see. So that's how it is.
[03:24] Ains
    That's right, Albedo.
[03:28] Ains
    That's exactly right.
[05:02] Caretaker A
    It may not be my place to say this,
[05:05] Caretaker A
    but the children love the
    princess's stew very much.
[05:09] Caretaker B
    We haven't been able to get our
    hands on several ingredients...
[05:12] Caretaker B
    The children will finally be
    able to eat their fill today!
[05:17] Renner
    I hope the two of you eat it, as well.
[05:21] Renner
    I know that you've lessened the amount
    you eat to give the children more food.
[05:27] Caretaker B
    Thank you very much.
[05:35] Renner
    What hypocrisy.
[05:38] Renner
    All I can do is bring some
    food to the children.
[05:44] Renner
    The Sorcerer Kingdom's
    forces will attack soon.
[05:48] Renner
    Then, all the people in
    the royal capital will...
[05:51] Climb
    Princess Renner...
[05:54] Climb
    The children can smile right now
    because you reached out to them.
[06:05] Climb
    P-Please forgive me.
    That was presumptuous thing to say.
[06:16] Renner
    I'm sorry for making you wait,
    even though you made time for me.
[06:21] Lakyus
    It's fine. Thank you for
    making time for me, as well.
[06:26] Lakyus
    Oh, I don't need any tea.
    I don't have much time.
[06:29] Evileye
    Hey, Lakyus.
[06:31] Evileye
    We probably have enough
    time for one cup of tea.
[06:34] Lakyus
    Do you all want to drink some tea?
[06:37] Evileye
    It would be quite cold of us to
     refuse the princess's kind offer.
[06:44] Evileye
    Hey, Muscle.
[06:47] Evileye
    Quit acting as if you don't
    know I'm talking about you.
[06:50] Evileye
    You, the one who'd sink
    in the water like a rock.
[06:54] Evileye
    Hey, Gagaran.
[06:55] Gagaran
    Hm? What?
[06:57] Evileye
    Don't you want to drink some tea, too?
[06:59] Gagaran
    Yeah, I do.
[07:01] Gagaran
    I feel like chugging some good tea.
[07:02] Gagaran
    I could probably drink
    about ten liters right now.
[07:05] Evileye
    That's how it is, Leader.
[07:07] Evileye
    Can we get some, too?
[07:08] Lakyus
    Yes. That's fine, but are you
    planning on drinking tea, too?
[07:12] Tina
    Then we'll do the pouring.
[07:17] Tia
    Enjoy your talk with the princess until then.
[07:20] Tina
    We'll make some super bitter tea.
[07:22] Renner
    The tea is already in the warm pot.
[07:30] Tia
    There's not enough for everyone.
[07:32] Tina
    Shoot. It's all gone.
[07:34] Tina
    This isn't enough when there's someone
    here who wants to drink ten liters.
[07:38] Tina
    At this rate,
[07:39] Tina
    there'll be rumors that the princess
    doesn't even have tea to offer her guests.
[07:42] Lakyus
    Hey, everyone...
[07:44] Renner
    Lakyus.
[07:45] Lakyus
    Huh?
[07:46] Renner
    They're trying to make more time for us,
     since this is our last meeting.
[07:52] Lakyus
    Oh...
[07:53] Tina
    Brain Unglaus.
[07:54] Tia
    Show us where we can boil more water.
[07:57] Brain
    Sure. It's this way.
[07:58] Climb
    Should I leave the room, as well?
[08:00] Evileye
    Don't worry about it.
[08:03] Evileye
    That man wasn't taken out of the
    room for that kind of a reason.
[08:06] Renner
    Lakyus, let's take advantage
    of their kindness.
[08:10] Lakyus
    You're right. Why don't we
    talk until the tea is ready?
[08:15] Renner
    Yes!
[08:22] Tia
    I don't sense anyone nearby.
[08:26] Tia
    They've all run away.
[08:30] Tia
    Tea.
[08:32] Lakyus
    Where are Sir Unglaus and Tina?
[08:34] Tia
    Looking for something sweet.
[08:37] Lakyus
    Something sweet?
[08:38] Tia
    Here, fiendish boss.
[08:39] Tia
    More importantly, this is the
    first tea I've ever made.
[08:42] Tia
    You should enjoy it.
[08:47] Lakyus
    Such a strong aroma. Thank you.
[08:50] Tia
    Fiendish... no, nefarious boss.
[08:52] Tia
    It'd be good to drink it all in one gulp.
    It's smooth and refreshing.
[08:58] Lakyus
    Please try making something a
    little more palatable next time.
[09:04] Tia
    Is it good?
[09:06] Lakyus
    It's very bitter.
    Honestly speaking, I can't say that it's...
[09:19] Tia
    This is next!
[09:22] Climb
    Princess, over here!
[09:24] Climb
    What's going on?!
[09:25] Evileye
    Don't move! I'll cast magic.
[09:29] Evileye
    Don't bother.
[09:30] Evileye
    We don't plan on hurting you
    two if you don't get involved.
[09:38] Lakyus
    Why?
[09:39] Tia
    I've always been watching you.
[09:41] Tia
    And I've thought so many times
    about how I could kill you.
[09:45] Tia
    Evileye, your turn.
[09:47] Evileye
    Yeah. Resist Weakening.
[09:51] Evileye
    No use. She fended it off.
[09:54] Gagaran
    Seriously!
[10:00] Evileye
    Resist Weakening.
[10:04] Evileye
    All right. It worked.
[10:07] Evileye
    Charm Person.
[10:09] Evileye
    Great. It worked.
[10:11] Gagaran
    All right!
[10:14] Evileye
    Lakyus, hurry up and heal your wounds.
[10:17] Lakyus
    Yes. I understand.
[10:21] Renner
    Mind control is a scary thing.
[10:24] Evileye
    Oh? You're not scared at all.
[10:26] Evileye
    I've always thought you were pretty bold.
[10:30] Renner
    I've never thought of myself that way...
[10:33] Renner
    I just believed that you wouldn't do
    something like this without a reason.
[10:38] Renner
    So...
[10:40] Renner
    Could you tell me why you've done this?
[10:43] Evileye
    It's simple.
[10:45] Evileye
    We care about our friend more
    than we care about this kingdom.
[10:50] Tia
    Our fiendish boss was the only one who
    wanted to protect the royal capital.
[10:54] Tia
    All of us were secretly against it.
[10:57] Gagaran
    But she'll stay behind on her own
    if we tell her something like that.
[11:03] Gagaran
    We decided to catch her off-guard and
    take her out of the capital by force.
[11:08] Gagaran
    Sorry, Princess.
[11:10] Evileye
    Well, we had to aim for a time when
    she unequipped her magic items,
[11:13] Evileye
    use five different poisons,
    and cast weakening magic.
[11:16] Evileye
    Even then, getting Charm Person
    to work was all based on luck.
[11:21] Evileye
    Now, then...
[11:22] Evileye
    We'll teleport out of the
    capital once Tina comes back.
[11:26] Evileye
    Do you two want to come with us?
[11:28] Climb
    That's...
[11:29] Renner
    I'd like to ask you one thing.
[11:31] Renner
    Where do you plan to go?
[11:34] Evileye
    Well...
[11:35] Evileye
    Maybe southeast from here?
[11:37] Evileye
    There's a country that fell into
    ruin there a long time ago.
[11:40] Evileye
    Well, it's a place far, far away
    that you've never heard of.
[11:45] Renner
    I see.
[11:47] Renner
    Thank you very much, but I will stay here.
[11:51] Evileye
    I see.
[11:54] Tina
    We found something sweet.
[11:56] Brain
    It took us a long time since she couldn't
    decide which sweets to bring...
[12:01] Brain
    What's this?
[12:04] Brain
    It smells like blood.
[12:06] Renner
    Everything is fine.
    There is nothing to worry about.
[12:11] Brain
    I see. Very well, then.
[12:14] Evileye
    Brain Unglaus.
[12:16] Evileye
    Do you want to escape?
[12:19] Brain
    What about those two?
[12:23] Brain
    I see. Then...
[12:25] Brain
    Well, either way, I don't
    plan on running away anymore.
[12:31] Evileye
    I see.
[12:33] Evileye
    I expected you to say something like that.
[12:35] Evileye
    Looks like I was right.
[12:37] Evileye
    Teleportation.
[12:43] Climb
    Princess...
[12:44] Brain
    Princess. Climb.
[12:47] Brain
    Sorry, but I'm heading out.
[12:52] Climb
    To where?
[12:54] Brain
    I plan to challenge the
    Sorcerer King to a duel.
[12:58] Brain
    Well, that's only if I manage to get through
    the Sorcerer Kingdom's army and reach him.
[13:03] Climb
    Please wait!
[13:04] Climb
    You've inherited Lord Stronoff's will.
    Only you can wield this sword, Sir Brain!
[13:09] Brain
    Hey, now. I already told you, didn't I?
[13:12] Brain
    I don't plan on respecting his wishes.
[13:15] Brain
    Sorry, Princess. Please return that to the king.
[13:18] Renner
    I understand.
[13:20] Climb
    Princess!
[13:21] Renner
    Climb, Sir Brain has made his decision.
[13:25] Brain
    As expected, Princess.
[13:27] Brain
    You're a good woman.
[13:29] Brain
    Not that I really know much about women.
[13:33] Brain
    Climb.
[13:35] Brain
    I came back to life after
    meeting you and Lord Sebas.
[13:41] Brain
    I was truly lucky to have
     met the two of you.
[13:54] Climb
    Why is this happening?
[13:57] Climb
    Sorcerer King...
[13:58] Climb
    If only you didn't exist!
[14:00] Renner
    Climb.
[14:03] Renner
    Climb, I have to fulfill my duty
    as a member of the royal family.
[14:07] Renner
    First, I'd like to bring the kingdom's
    treasured sword to my father.
[14:13] Climb
    Yes, Princess.
[14:16] Renner
    By the way, um, well...
[14:20] Renner
    May I hold that sword for just a moment?
[14:23] Climb
    Huh? Oh, yes!
[14:28] Renner
    It's quite heavy.
[14:40] Renner
    Hm, it doesn't really suit me.
[14:43] Climb
    N-No, that's not true at all.
[14:46] Climb
    I believe you'd surpass me
    easily with a bit of training.
[14:50] Renner
    That's not true.
[14:52] Renner
    And, I don't think I'll have the
    chance to wield a sword ever again.
[14:58] Renner
    Well, then, I'll need to make
    preparations before meeting Father.
[15:30] Aura
    All right. Don't get in the way.
[15:42] Aura
    V!
[15:45] Aura
    I'm gonna say it one more time.
    Don't get in my way.
[15:53] Aura
    That's there, so maybe it's this way?
[15:56] Soldiers
    Q-Quietly...
[15:58] Aura
    Hey. Is it all right for you to be distracted
    by me just because I climbed up here?
[16:04] Aura
    We all came together, you know?
[16:10] Aura
    Leave them alone.
    They're not my responsibility.
[16:14] Aura
    Um, we have to go to the
    magician's guild first...
[16:17] Aura
    Oh! Is that it?
[16:30] Aura
    Okay, everyone. I'm not mad.
[16:33] Aura
    Stop bullying Iri.
[16:36] Aura
    Now, we'll attack the royal capital.
[16:41] Aura
    But Iri is so big...
[16:46] Aura
    I'll give you a special mission!
[16:49] Aura
    Walk around the castle walls and
    squish all the people with your feet!
[16:57] Aura
    Okay, everyone. Let's go.
[17:12] Brain
    Now, how can I find the Sorcerer King?
[17:16] Brain
    Should I hide in one of the buildings and
    wait for the Sorcerer King to show up?
[17:25] Brain
    Most of the civilians couldn't escape.
[17:28] Brain
    If they all came out to fight,
[17:30] Brain
    we might be able to cause a bit of trouble...
[17:34] Brain
    Things might've been different
    if he was here instead of me...
[17:43] Brain
    The air...
[17:51] Brain
    I'll attack that first.
[18:31] Brain
    Hey, hey, hey. My back's
    already against the wall.
[18:36] Brain; Internal
    Yeah, that's right.
[18:38] Brain; Internal
    It must be easy for you to destroy
    this completely unprotected capital.
[18:42] Brain; Internal
    And you probably won't think much about the
    massacre that you'll cause in the process.
[18:48] Brain
    Even so!
[18:51] Brain
    Brain Unglaus.
[18:57] Cocytus
    I am a servant of the supreme one,
    Sorcerer King Ains Ooal Gown.
[19:04] Cocytus
    Cocytus.
[19:14] Brain
    My thanks.
[19:15] Cocytus
    Unnecessary.
[19:21] Cocytus
    God Slaying Emperor Blade.
[19:43] Brain
    "Seek life when facing death," was it?
[19:48] Brain; Internal
    I'll have to cut those arms
    off before he attacks
[19:51] Brain; Internal
    if I want to avoid sacrificing
    my life to get in a hit.
[19:54] Brain
    If that's the case!
[20:01] Brain
    Ability Boost.
[20:06] Brain
    Greater Ability Boost.
[20:12] Brain
    True Nail Clipper.
[20:35] Cocytus; Internal
    I didn't know that someone of
    this level would be here...
[20:39] Cocytus; Internal
    He might have become a great asset to
    Nazarick if he joined us. However...
[20:45] Cocytus; Internal
    I cannot embarrass the resolve of a warrior.
[20:50] Cocytus; Internal
    I am certain that Lord Warrior Takemikazuchi
    would accept my decision.
[21:00] Cocytus
    I will take this trophy.
[21:04] Cocytus
    Preserve his body in ice.
