**[00:03] ---**
People of the proud kingdom of Re-Estize!
**[00:06] ---**
These devils are not deserving of our fear!
**[00:09] ---**
My sword and shield shall be with you!
**[00:15] ---**
Long live Prince Zanac!
**[00:24] ---**
Where did all the citizens go?
Are they hiding inside their houses?
**[00:28] ---**
The doors have been broken down.
They were probably taken somewhere else.
**[00:33] ---**
Iron and copper adventurers,
stay here and search through the houses!
**[00:37] ---**
The rest of you spread out and form a line.
**[00:45] ---**
Here they come.
**[00:49] ---**
An Overeating, Gazer Devils,
and 15 Hellhounds...!
**[01:00] ---**
Hey, don't run away!
**[01:18] ---**
Toss me!
**[01:30] ---**
That just leaves
the Gazer Devils and Overeating!
**[01:44] ---**
Such paltry opponents.
**[01:47] ---**
I, Momon the adventurer,
**[01:50] ---**
will now go and take down
the enemy leader, Jaldabaoth!
**[01:56] ---**
In the meantime, keep the citizens
who are beyond the wall safe.
**[02:01] ---**
I'm counting on you.
**[02:10] ---**
It's started.
**[02:12] ---**
Yes. We have to find
the people taken prisoner now,
**[02:15] ---**
while the demons are distracted.
**[02:17] ---**
Yeah. According to
the princess's conjecture,
**[02:19] ---**
the warehouses in this area
are likely candidates.
**[02:30] ---**
Shalltear... Bloodfallen...
**[02:37] ---**
Climb, I'll buy us some time.
You go on ahead.
**[02:49] ---**
What are you all doing in the capital?
**[02:52] ---**
Why should I have to be asked that by you?
**[02:57] ---**
Are you the only one who made it in this far?
**[03:01] ---**
Were you looking for someone else?
Someone not me?
**[03:06] ---**
You? Why would I?
**[03:11] ---**
She's saying it's hard to remember
someone as insignificant as an ant?
**[03:16] ---**
Would you rather I kill you?
Would you like to die?
**[03:20] ---**
If you bow down to me and lick my boots,
it may improve my mood.
**[03:26] ---**
Sorry, but I'm not inclined to do that.
**[03:28] ---**
Martial Art! Field!
**[03:35] ---**
Not being aware of the difference
between our abilities is a real hassle.
**[03:40] ---**
Oh, I *am* aware.
**[03:43] ---**
Still, I can at least buy some time.
**[03:49] ---**
Wielding my sword...
**[03:52] ---**
is my life.
**[03:56] ---**
I may have fallen behind, but thank you...
**[04:00] ---**
...my friends.
**[04:08] ---**
Four Fold Slash of Light.
**[04:15] ---**
Huh?
**[04:16] ---**
You were aiming for it...?
**[04:21] ---**
It looks like you pass as a nail clipper.
**[04:25] ---**
You have my gratitude for the compliment.
**[04:28] ---**
My swordsmanship--
My life has not been for nothing!
**[04:33] ---**
I've reached an unreachable height,
if only in small part!
**[04:37] ---**
You sound like you have
a screw loose somewhere.
**[04:44] ---**
Even with the One so close by,
thanks to his detection-blocking ring,
**[04:49] ---**
I can't even sense his presence.
**[04:55] ---**
There's no way a human weakling
is getting away from me unharmed!
**[05:00] ---**
Time Accelerator!
**[05:05] ---**
Is that...?
**[05:14] ---**
You are indeed strong.
**[05:27] ---**
We must have underestimated
Jaldabaoth's forces.
**[05:30] ---**
I'll let you two take those five.
**[05:32] ---**
Let's get to it, Demiu-- Demon!
**[05:38] ---**
I will take three if you will take two,
is that all right?
**[05:43] ---**
I don't mind taking three.
**[05:46] ---**
You take two, and I'll take three.
**[05:50] ---**
You're a stubborn one.
**[05:53] ---**
I'll let you all decide who will fight me.
**[05:57] ---**
My name is Alpha. This here is Delta.
**[06:02] ---**
Is that so? You sure are courteous.
**[06:05] ---**
My name is Evileye.
**[06:07] ---**
I am the one who will defeat you!
**[06:14] ---**
What are you doing here?
I told you to go on ahead!
**[06:16] ---**
W-Well, we...
**[06:18] ---**
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
I don't know what just happened,
**[06:21] ---**
but there has to be more to it
than what you said.
**[06:25] ---**
Why isn't she coming after me?
**[06:27] ---**
What exactly did you do?
**[06:29] ---**
I found the monster
who can stack up against Mr. Sebas.
**[06:32] ---**
And...?
**[06:34] ---**
I took my sword and...
Yeah, I cut her fingernail with it!
**[06:39] ---**
I cut off her fingernail!
**[06:42] ---**
Y-Yeah, so you cut her nail
with your sword. Sure, that is amazing.
**[06:48] ---**
Yes, I think... that's amazing...
**[06:54] ---**
In any case, it's a miracle
nobody is coming after us. Let's hurry.
**[06:59] ---**
Martial Art! Dark Blade Mega Impact!
**[07:08] ---**
Floating Swords!
**[07:15] ---**
They just keep coming.
**[07:16] ---**
What do we do, fiendish boss?
**[07:19] ---**
This is bad. The priests
are almost out of magic power.
**[07:27] ---**
Six Fold Slash of Light!
**[07:32] ---**
Finish them!
**[07:36] ---**
Why is Lord Stronoff here when he's
supposed to be guarding the castle?
**[07:42] ---**
--His Majesty?!
--King Ramposa III?!
**[07:44] ---**
What is he doing here?!
**[07:46] ---**
His Majesty says...
**[07:48] ---**
"Is it the castle that you protect, or is it me?"
**[07:53] ---**
There is only one answer!
**[07:55] ---**
It is our role to protect the king!
**[07:59] ---**
As such, here is where we must fight!
**[08:02] ---**
Charge through!
**[08:06] ---**
Lord Stronoff, I need your help, please.
**[08:09] ---**
Of course.
**[08:10] ---**
Hold on a second!
**[08:12] ---**
Could you use the support
of a once-outstanding warrior?
**[08:16] ---**
There's a future
outstanding ninja here, too.
**[08:19] ---**
Gagaran! Tia!
**[08:21] ---**
Just lying around was making me soft.
**[08:24] ---**
We're ready to fight.
**[08:25] ---**
There's no way you can...
**[08:28] ---**
That's reassuring to hear!
**[08:38] ---**
Let's go!
**[08:40] ---**
Yeah!
**[08:43] ---**
Shard Buckshot!
**[08:48] ---**
Not again!
**[08:51] ---**
Ha!
**[08:52] ---**
Tch!
**[08:56] ---**
I'll cover you. Not that you need it.
**[09:07] ---**
Sand Field All!
**[09:13] ---**
Damn, it's not right for monsters to be
teaming up and reinforcing each other!
**[09:19] ---**
What the--?!
**[09:24] ---**
Crystal Wall!
**[09:33] ---**
*Fa jin*?!
**[09:36] ---**
I should commend you. Immobilization
and negative energy don't work on you.
**[09:41] ---**
You've got every resistance there is, huh?
**[09:46] ---**
They're still fighting over there.
**[09:50] ---**
In that case, I'm just going to
have to buy a little more time!
**[10:10] ---**
This room is secure, right?
**[10:12] ---**
Everything is fine.
**[10:14] ---**
There is no one who can listen in
on our conversation in here.
**[10:19] ---**
No one, huh? All right,
tell me the entirety of your plan.
**[10:24] ---**
First, allow me to thank you
very much for indulging me
**[10:29] ---**
when I said that I would like
to meet with you, Lord Ains.
**[10:32] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[10:34] ---**
There are four merits
to the series of plans I have made.
**[10:38] ---**
Four?! I don't know a single one of them!
**[10:41] ---**
Ho, I thought it was three.
**[10:43] ---**
I think this may be the first time
that I have bested you in a contest of wits.
**[10:47] ---**
Oh, you always have the better of me.
**[10:50] ---**
How can you say such a thing?
You are too modest.
**[10:53] ---**
No, really. Ahem...
**[10:56] ---**
Now, why don't you tell me
about these four merits?
**[10:59] ---**
Yes, my lord. The first one
**[11:02] ---**
is that we are claiming all of the materials
that are in these storehouses.
**[11:04] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[11:06] ---**
Fantastic! Now we won't have to worry
about being low on funds for a while.
**[11:10] ---**
Second, it allows us to cover up our part
**[11:13] ---**
in our strike against Eight Fingers,
which you instructed us to do.
**[11:16] ---**
Now that you mention it, you said
that your goal was to recover an item.
**[11:21] ---**
Please have a look at this.
**[11:23] ---**
The magic imparted within this treasure
is the tenth tier magic,
**[11:27] ---**
"Armageddon Evil."
**[11:29] ---**
A spell to summon a large number of demons.
**[11:33] ---**
This is an item created by Lord Ulbert.
Should we use it here?
**[11:38] ---**
Hmm...
**[11:40] ---**
Demiurge, you may use this.
**[11:44] ---**
It is also an item that was created by Ulbert.
**[11:47] ---**
It's a prototype,
but it should do, all the same.
**[11:50] ---**
L-Lord Ains, I couldn't possibly
use your own personal object!
**[11:53] ---**
Oh, no? Then I will give it to you, Demiurge.
**[11:57] ---**
However, Ulbert might feel self-conscious
**[11:59] ---**
that his failed creation
has remained around for so long.
**[12:04] ---**
Such a...
**[12:07] ---**
I am most grateful.
**[12:09] ---**
Stop that, Demiurge.
Consider it a thanks for your loyalty.
**[12:14] ---**
We guardians were created
by the Great Ones.
**[12:18] ---**
It is only right that we demonstrate
the utmost loyalty until we perish.
**[12:22] ---**
Nonetheless, for you to once again
address me with such charity,
**[12:26] ---**
not to mention grant me
with a reward such a this...!
**[12:29] ---**
I, Demiurge, humbly offer you
even deeper devotion!
**[12:34] ---**
Uh, mm-hmm. I look forward to it.
**[12:38] ---**
So, Demiurge, there's something more
you want to tell me, right?
**[12:42] ---**
Yes, my lord. With that narrative in place,
**[12:44] ---**
Jaldabaoth has attacked
the Eight Fingers bases looking for this,
**[12:48] ---**
which ended up with him
seizing the capital's warehouse district.
**[12:52] ---**
And of course, this item
will be found in the warehouse
**[12:55] ---**
that serves as Eight Fingers' base,
all according to plan.
**[12:58] ---**
So then, what is the third merit?
**[13:01] ---**
Right. We have captured the humans
on the inside of the wall of flame.
**[13:06] ---**
The majority of them are already
being taken away to Nazarick,
**[13:08] ---**
where I was thinking that
they could be put to all kinds of uses.
**[13:12] ---**
Regardless of their age
or gender, am I right?
**[13:15] ---**
Yes.
**[13:17] ---**
It's true, ever since I ended up in this body,
**[13:19] ---**
I haven't felt a sense of affinity
for the human race.
**[13:22] ---**
No matter how many we kill,
it hasn't pained my heart,
**[13:25] ---**
so long as it benefited Nazarick.
Still, even so...
**[13:30] ---**
Demiurge, see that those who do not
dishonor the Great Tomb of Nazarick,
**[13:35] ---**
nor myself, are given deaths that are
without pain and suffering.
**[13:39] ---**
How benevolent of you!
It shall be as you wish.
**[13:43] ---**
Back to the subject at hand.
What does that leave as the fourth merit?
**[13:48] ---**
Right. I will pin all of the ill repute
upon the demon Jaldabaoth.
**[13:53] ---**
In other words, your goal is to
establish yourself as a notorious demon.
**[13:58] ---**
He's using this to increase the fame
of the adventurer Momon.
**[14:03] ---**
That makes sense. I'm convinced.
**[14:05] ---**
So then, is there anything
you want me to cooperate with you on?
**[14:09] ---**
All you need to do now is drive me off,
and there should be no problem.
**[14:14] ---**
I would like to do
everything within my power
**[14:16] ---**
to serve as your foil, Lord Ains.
**[14:25] ---**
Wow, that little girl out there
is pretty good, huh? What was her name?
**[14:30] ---**
I don't know; I have no interest
in these gnats' names.
**[14:33] ---**
I believe she is Evileye of the Blue Rose.
**[14:36] ---**
She was listed in the information
that Lord Sebas collected.
**[14:39] ---**
Oh, so that's her name.
**[14:41] ---**
Hey Na, are you sure your mind
isn't just starting to go?
**[14:44] ---**
Can the rest of you remember
the names of humans?
**[14:47] ---**
No problem for me.
I pay close attention to proper names.
**[14:51] ---**
No worries. Actually, I get along
pretty well with humans.
**[14:56] ---**
Not a problem.
**[15:01] ---**
There's an earthquake.
It looks like one of Mare's.
**[15:05] ---**
Is this some kind of sign?
**[15:07] ---**
That's right. Okay, Narberal,
it's time for you to assume some injuries.
**[15:11] ---**
I want to make it as painless as possible.
I hope you'll forgive me.
**[15:15] ---**
What other choice is there? This is our job.
**[15:21] ---**
The devil! This is the devil's doing!
**[15:24] ---**
Stay calm! Please stay calm!
**[15:27] ---**
--Help me! My child isn't here!
--My wife was taken away!
**[15:30] ---**
--Where is my child? He's only three!
--Papa! Mama!
**[15:32] ---**
Tch, it's just as the princess said.
**[15:36] ---**
Sure enough, they split up
the families when they took them.
**[15:57] ---**
Can you still fight?
**[15:58] ---**
Of course. No problem.
**[16:15] ---**
Lord Momon!
**[16:17] ---**
That was just a little bit fun.
How can I describe it? Real?
**[16:22] ---**
It feels like I'm actually getting to fight.
**[16:26] ---**
I am pleased to hear it.
**[16:29] ---**
Now, I will start fighting in earnest.
**[16:31] ---**
Come at me, Jaldabaoth!
**[16:49] ---**
Aspect of the Devil: Hellfire Mantle!
**[17:04] ---**
To be melting a weapon of this level,
you must have boosted your power.
**[17:09] ---**
Right you are.
**[17:13] ---**
The flames of hell?!
**[17:15] ---**
Yes. Even if you possess
a perfect resistance against flame,
**[17:19] ---**
you will not come away
unharmed from this.
**[17:23] ---**
Frost Pain Modified!
**[17:26] ---**
What exactly is that?
It's much like that spear you used earlier.
**[17:31] ---**
Icy Burst!
**[17:41] ---**
You truly are strong.
**[17:45] ---**
As are you.
**[17:47] ---**
What a pair these two are...
**[17:49] ---**
I have a proposal for you.
**[17:53] ---**
I will be withdrawing now.
Shall we call this the end of our battle?
**[17:58] ---**
Don't be ridiculous!
**[17:58] ---**
Very well.
**[18:01] ---**
I cannot surmise why
you would have brought a woman
**[18:03] ---**
as unintelligent as her
with you, Mr. Momon.
**[18:07] ---**
If you'd just think for a moment,
I'm sure you'll understand.
**[18:10] ---**
I have my demon hordes standing by
to assault the whole capital at any time.
**[18:16] ---**
You'd take... the capital hostage?
**[18:19] ---**
Now then, we will make our retreat.
**[18:23] ---**
Unfortunately, without recovering
the item that was our goal.
**[18:30] ---**
They're gone.
**[18:35] ---**
You did it! You won!
Leave it to you, Lord Momon!
**[18:39] ---**
Er, excuse me,
but could you give me some space?
**[18:42] ---**
You don't have to be bashful.
**[18:44] ---**
Hey!
**[18:46] ---**
You still alive?
**[18:48] ---**
Guys...
**[18:50] ---**
Lord Momon, declare victory to the others!
**[18:53] ---**
I'd be too embarrassed.
**[18:54] ---**
This is something that he who is
most distinguished in battle must do!
**[18:59] ---**
Ah, I suppose you're right.
It should be done.
**[19:04] ---**
Lord Momon is victorious!
**[19:12] ---**
You really are going back to E-Rantel?
**[19:16] ---**
I'd very much like to accompany you, but...
**[19:18] ---**
Don't worry about it.
**[19:19] ---**
You have done us an extremely great service.
**[19:22] ---**
--Mm-hmm.
--I understand His Majesty would have
liked to thank you personally.
**[19:24] ---**
--I understand His Majesty would have
liked to thank you personally.
**[19:27] ---**
That's quite all right, Marquis Raeven.
I am grateful for all you've done.
**[19:32] ---**
Not at all. I hope that we can continue
our good relations moving forward.
**[19:36] ---**
Members of the Blue Rose,
as a fellow adamantite class adventurer,
**[19:40] ---**
I hope I can look to you
the next time something comes up.
**[19:42] ---**
As do we.
**[19:44] ---**
Very well then...
**[19:49] ---**
He turned you down, huh?
**[19:54] ---**
No, he didn't.
**[19:56] ---**
That's just the kind of man he is.
**[20:02] ---**
As of now, you will all
become servants of our master.
**[20:06] ---**
Allow us to congratulate you.
**[20:08] ---**
D-Don't be absurd!
**[20:10] ---**
We will begin by inviting you
to a fun new place.
**[20:14] ---**
Yes, um, you are invited.
**[20:16] ---**
W-Wait!
**[20:18] ---**
Hilma...!
**[20:19] ---**
You don't mean me, do you?
I helped you, didn't I?
**[20:22] ---**
I've had it! I can't take any more of that!
**[20:24] ---**
Uh, what did you do to her?
**[20:26] ---**
I-I took her into Kyouhukou's room,
and had him eat her from the inside out.
**[20:32] ---**
Oh, that figures. And then her wounds
were cured with healing magic.
**[20:36] ---**
It's only natural that she'd be more submissive.
**[20:38] ---**
Okay, lady, we need you to
buy some time with the others
**[20:42] ---**
until we're sure they will obey us.
Can you do that?
**[20:44] ---**
O-Of course I can! Just leave them to me!
**[20:47] ---**
Why, you... You wouldn't!
**[20:49] ---**
Okay then, we've taken over
half the country now.
**[20:55] ---**
All those under your protection wish to
express their gratitude, Princess Renner.
**[20:59] ---**
My, I would sure like to see them.
**[21:02] ---**
You mustn't! I am so sorry
to decline your kind feelings, but...
**[21:08] ---**
Well, I suppose that's that, then.
**[21:14] ---**
Oh, yeah? You got beaten by Rigrit, too, huh?
**[21:17] ---**
--Buzz off.
--She got hurt bad.
**[21:18] ---**
And left in tears.
**[21:20] ---**
This sure takes me back.
**[21:22] ---**
Don't lump me in with you!
In addition to that old lady,
**[21:26] ---**
I had all of these guys around!
**[21:27] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[21:28] ---**
Evileye, you can teleport, right?
You could have created a portal to E-Rantel,
**[21:33] ---**
and then been able to go with Momon
as you please, right?
**[21:37] ---**
Oh...
**[21:38] ---**
You didn't realize that?!
**[21:45] ---**
This is the new maid that has joined Nazarick.
**[21:49] ---**
I'm Tuareninya. It is a pleasure to meet you.
**[21:52] ---**
How much would you like her
to be able to do, woof?
**[21:57] ---**
Please make your objective getting her
a passing grade as one of Nazarick's maids.
**[22:01] ---**
Although, since she is only human,
**[22:04] ---**
please keep her training
geared with that in mind.
**[22:08] ---**
I understand, woof. Being a maid
is simply a temporary assignment, then.
**[22:13] ---**
What do you mean by that?
**[22:15] ---**
Only that she will be quitting
once she's married. Er, woof.
**[22:39] ---**
Welcome back,
**[22:41] ---**
Lord Ains!
**[22:50] ---**
I have checked into this man
