[00:00] ---
    I have been sent by the Great One!
[00:06] ---
    I declare death unto you!
[00:09] ---
    The Great One has mobilized
    an army to destroy you!
[00:15] ---
    Nonetheless,
    time has been granted unto you
[00:18] ---
    to allow you to mount a desperate,
    albeit futile resistance!
[00:24] ---
    Eight days from this day--
[00:26] ---
    at that time, you shall be
    the second offering of death
[00:30] ---
    from among the
    Lizardmen tribes of this lake!
[00:33] ---
    The second?
[00:35] ---
    Offer your desperate resistance,
[00:37] ---
    so that the Great One
    may sneeringly take delight!
[00:44] ---
    By no means forget! Eight days!
[00:55] ---
    You remember the clouds
    that covered the heavens, right?
[00:58] ---
    That was likely fourth tier magic,
[01:00] ---
    "Green Claw Tribe"
    "Head Priestess"
[01:01] ---
    "Control Cloud."
[01:03] ---
    "Green Claw Tribe"
    "Chief Shasuryu Shasha"
[01:04] ---
    Fourth tier?
[01:06] ---
    Only a powerful magic caster
    could use something of that scope.
[01:10] ---
    Even I can only use as high as second tier.
[01:14] ---
    We should evacuate as soon as possible.
[01:16] ---
    "Green Claw Tribe"
    "Head Warrior"
[01:17] ---
    Are you saying we should run away
    before we even start fighting?!
[01:20] ---
    "Green Claw Tribe"
    "Head Hunter"
[01:20] ---
    That thing said we had eight days.
    We still have time,
[01:24] ---
    so I believe we should wait
    and see what the enemy does.
[01:26] ---
    Hmm...
[01:32] ---
    If the choice is between running
    and fighting, I choose the latter.
[01:36] ---
    Zaryusu, a traveler such as
    yourself may not speak.
[01:40] ---
    You should be grateful
    we're even allowing you in here--
[01:43] ---
    We are allowing anyone with
    any learning to participate right now.
[01:47] ---
    It would be wrong not to listen
    to the opinions of travelers, as well.
[01:50] ---
    But Chief, you can't treat him special
    simply because he's your brother.
[01:55] ---
    Not listening to the words of
    the knowledgeable is the act of a fool.
[01:59] ---
    No warrior would turn away the opinion
    of he who possesses Frost Pain.
[02:07] ---
    Hmm... So, what makes you say that?
[02:10] ---
    It is the only way.
[02:14] ---
    Can we win?
[02:15] ---
    Of course we can!
[02:16] ---
    No. As things now stand,
    our chances of winning are slim.
[02:20] ---
    What are you talking about?
[02:22] ---
    Our foe must be aware of our forces,
[02:25] ---
    which is why he has
    taken the tone that he has.
[02:28] ---
    If so, we need to throw his reckoning off.
[02:32] ---
    You all remember
    the war we fought earlier, right?
[02:35] ---
    --Of course.
    --There is no way we could forget it.
[02:38] ---
    There were once seven tribes
    living in this marsh.
[02:42] ---
    There was our tribe, the Green Claw.
[02:45] ---
    The skilled hunters of the Small Fang.
[02:47] ---
    The tribe with the best
    defensive capabilities, the Razor Tail.
[02:51] ---
    The war-loving Dragon Tusk.
[02:53] ---
    The moderate Yellow Speckle.
[02:55] ---
    The Sharp Edge, who were
    proficient with sword skills.
[02:58] ---
    With many members possessing
    priestly abilities, the Red Eye.
[03:02] ---
    It was several years ago that we had
    an extended shortage of food,
[03:05] ---
    and all of our tribes
    began competing with each other.
[03:08] ---
    Until finally, it turned into
    an all-out war among the three tribes
[03:11] ---
    consisting of ourselves,
    the Small Fang, and the Razor Tail
[03:14] ---
    against the two tribes of
    the Yellow Speckle and the Sharp Edge.
[03:17] ---
    As a result, the three of us secured victory,
[03:20] ---
    and the two losing tribes
    were absorbed into the Dragon Tusk,
[03:23] ---
    who remained out of the fighting.
[03:26] ---
    What about it?
[03:28] ---
    That thing said that
    this village would be second.
[03:30] ---
    Doesn't that mean that he intends
    to destroy us and the other tribes in order?
[03:35] ---
    You want us to join forces
    with the other tribes before he attacks,
[03:38] ---
    and engage him all together?
[03:40] ---
    Our one-time allies,
    the Small Fang and the Razor Tail,
[03:44] ---
    will probably form an alliance with us again.
[03:46] ---
    Let there be no mistake.
[03:48] ---
    What I'm suggesting entails
    all of the tribes.
[03:52] ---
    Chief, I propose that we form an alliance
[03:55] ---
    with the Dragon Tusk
    and the Red Eye, as well!
[03:57] ---
    --Impossible!
    --The Dragon Tusk contains the survivors
[04:01] ---
    of the two losing tribes from the last war.
    There can be no alliance with us.
[04:05] ---
    We have no interaction
    with the Red Eye, either.
[04:08] ---
    Won't this be difficult?
[04:10] ---
    A five-tribe union...
[04:13] ---
    All right. Who will be
    the envoy to those two tribes?
[04:16] ---
    I will go.
[04:19] ---
    You, a traveler?
[04:21] ---
    That's right. If they are unwilling
    to listen to me because I'm a traveler,
[04:25] ---
    then they aren't worth teaming up with.
[04:27] ---
    Hmm...
[04:28] ---
    You'll take the chief's seal.
[04:32] ---
    My gratitude.
[04:47] ---
    Brother...
[04:53] ---
    Rororo!
[05:05] ---
    I've always thought that you should have
    been the one to become chief.
[05:09] ---
    The reason I was able
    to learn how to farm fish
[05:12] ---
    is because you allowed me
    to be a traveler, Brother.
[05:15] ---
    Why would you say such a thing now?
[05:17] ---
    You could have done that
    even if you'd stayed in the village.
[05:21] ---
    It's bright men like you who should
    shoulder the weight of the village.
[05:26] ---
    Brother...
[05:27] ---
    So, is this really all you're after?
[05:33] ---
    What do you mean?
    What are you trying to say?
[05:36] ---
    The fact that the skirmishing
    between our tribes had diminished,
[05:40] ---
    as well as that our numbers had increased,
[05:43] ---
    proved to be
    among the causes of the past war.
[05:45] ---
    Brother, I think that's all you'd better say.
[05:50] ---
    I knew it.
[05:52] ---
    There's no other way if we're going to
    avoid repeating that last war.
[05:57] ---
    In that case, what will you do
    if the other tribe refuses an alliance?
[06:01] ---
    If that happens, we'll
    eliminate them... first.
[06:05] ---
    You're saying you would
    kill our fellow kinsmen?
[06:08] ---
    --Brother...
    --I do understand you.
[06:11] ---
    It's the survival of the tribe.
[06:13] ---
    What happens if the man
    at its head doesn't consider that?
[06:18] ---
    Rororo!
[06:25] ---
    Let's head out.
[06:27] ---
    So tell me, Brother, what will the count be?
[06:30] ---
    Ten from the warrior class,
    12 hunters, 3 priests,
[06:34] ---
    70 males, 100 females,
    and some of the children, I would say.
[06:39] ---
    Understood.
[06:41] ---
    If it comes to it, I'll use
    those numbers as a bargaining tool.
[06:51] ---
    Hmm, he's sure gotten big, huh?
[06:53] ---
    He was a lot smaller when I found him.
[06:56] ---
    That's hard to believe.
    When you brought him back to the village,
[07:01] ---
    he was already pretty big.
[07:10] ---
    Be sure to come back safely.
    Don't do anything crazy.
[07:13] ---
    Of course not. I will see this through
    to perfection and come home.
[07:17] ---
    Just sit tight, Brother!
[07:20] ---
    Hmm...
[07:33] ---
    It has been far too long, Assistant Butler.
[07:37] ---
    Oh, it has been a long time, Lord Demiurge.
[07:41] ---
    Is Lord Ains around?
[07:42] ---
    No, he said he would be
    at the human village for several days.
[07:46] ---
    Lady Albedo is inside, however.
[07:49] ---
    I see. By the way, Eclair,
[07:51] ---
    it's unusual for
    an assistant butler such as yourself
[07:54] ---
    to come all this way here.
[07:55] ---
    Lord Sebas is not around right now,
[07:57] ---
    so I must work twice as hard
    to make up the difference.
[07:59] ---
    As such, I just finished making some
    specific arrangements with Lady Albedo.
[08:04] ---
    I guess you're right. Now that he is gone,
[08:06] ---
    Nazarick's ninth floor
    is in your capable hands.
[08:10] ---
    Absolutely.
[08:11] ---
    I must work hard for the time when
    I rule the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
[08:18] ---
    Right you are, keep at it.
[08:21] ---
    Your creator, Lady Ankoro Mocchi Mochi,
    did design you that way.
[08:26] ---
    So, what is the first thing
    you're going to do toward that end?
[08:30] ---
    Hmph, cleaning.
[08:40] ---
    There is no one in Nazarick
    who can clean more carefully than I can!
[08:44] ---
    After I've cleaned the restroom,
    you can lick the bowl!
[08:49] ---
    Outstanding!
[09:05] ---
    "Red Eye Tribe Village"
[09:14] ---
    I am Zaryusu Shasha
    of the Green Claw tribe!
[09:17] ---
    I would like to speak
    to the Red Eye tribal chief!
[09:23] ---
    Zaryusu Shasha of the Green Claw tribe,
[09:26] ---
    the one who holds
    the tribe together will see you.
[09:29] ---
    Hmm? Not the chief?
[09:39] ---
    In here.
[09:42] ---
    The one who holds the tribe together
    wishes to speak with you one-on-one.
[09:47] ---
    Ho...
[09:49] ---
    I am Zaryusu Shasha
    of the Green Claw tribe!
[09:53] ---
    I will now enter the room.
[09:57] ---
    Please.
[10:05] ---
    Thank you for coming.
[10:11] ---
    Even the bearer of Frost Pain,
    one of the Four Great Treasures,
[10:14] ---
    appears to find my body bizarre-looking.
[10:20] ---
    Er, um, is something the matter?
[10:33] ---
    Oh, I mean... That was... Please excuse me.
[10:35] ---
    N-Not at all. I am the acting chief
    of the Red Eye tribe,
[10:41] ---
    Crusch Lulu.
[10:43] ---
    Now, may I ask the reason
    for your visit here today?
[10:48] ---
    Marry me.
[10:59] ---
    M-Marry you?
[11:01] ---
    Th-That is was not
    my purpose in coming here!
[11:04] ---
    I am well aware that ordinarily
    I should settle that matter first
[11:08] ---
    before saying such a thing,
[11:10] ---
    but I cannot be untrue to my own feelings!
[11:15] ---
    Uh-huh...
[11:16] ---
    Ah! Oh, I'm sorry! Feel free to
    give me your answer at a later date!
[11:25] ---
    Should I not be surprised that
    you are unafraid of my white body?
[11:31] ---
    From time to time among the Red Eye,
    an albino such as myself is born.
[11:36] ---
    They grow to exhibit
    an aptitude for some talent--
[11:39] ---
    in my case, that would be priestly powers.
[11:42] ---
    For that reason, they end up
    having authority second only to the chief.
[11:47] ---
    As white as the snow
    blanketing yonder mountains.
[11:50] ---
    Huh...?!
[11:52] ---
    It's a pretty color.
[11:53] ---
    Wh-What are you saying?
[12:05] ---
    Wh-Why would you do that
    without any warning?!
[12:12] ---
    It's love at first sight.
    Plus, we might be killed in this battle,
[12:17] ---
    and I wouldn't want to regret
    what might have been.
[12:20] ---
    The bearer of that sword,
    Frost Pain, is prepared to die?
[12:25] ---
    Did you see the monster
    that delivered the message?
[12:28] ---
    Yes.
[12:29] ---
    That thing produced screams
    that rattled the mind,
[12:32] ---
    and could neutralize just about
    any attack by non-enchanted weapons.
[12:37] ---
    When I encountered it before,
    I had no choice but to flee.
[12:41] ---
    We druids can temporarily
    imbue swords with magic.
[12:46] ---
    Can you ward against mental attacks?
[12:49] ---
    Most priests can bolster one's resistance.
[12:53] ---
    However, when it comes to
    protecting the mind from confusion,
[12:56] ---
    I'm the only one in our tribe who can do so.
[13:01] ---
    What number did it say
    the Red Eye tribe was?
[13:04] ---
    It said we were the fourth.
[13:06] ---
    I see. So, what are you planning to do?
[13:12] ---
    I'm going to be straight with you.
[13:17] ---
    If the Red Eye tribe evacuates,
[13:19] ---
    do you think you can live the same way
    you do now in some strange location?
[13:24] ---
    It would be quite difficult.
[13:26] ---
    So then, if all five tribes in the area
    were to similarly evacuate,
[13:30] ---
    what do you think would happen?
    If we could not find enough food,
[13:34] ---
    and the fish that make up
    our principal diet grew scarce,
[13:38] ---
    would all five tribes end up
    killing each other this time?
[13:41] ---
    You don't mean fighting a battle
    we may not be able to win would be...
[13:45] ---
    Yes. I'm taking into account depopulation,
    including the other tribes.
[13:51] ---
    Crusch Lulu, the Green Claw
    requests an alliance with the Red Eye.
[13:58] ---
    If you refuse,
[13:59] ---
    it will become necessary for us
    to challenge your tribe to battle first.
[14:04] ---
    To prevent any one tribe
    from running away without fighting
[14:06] ---
    and establishing a numerical superiority
    in a new land, right?
[14:10] ---
    My thinking is that if we form an alliance,
    then even if we are defeated,
[14:14] ---
    the chances of intertribal warfare
    in a new land are low.
[14:20] ---
    Our recognition of each other
    will be redefined,
[14:22] ---
    not as separate tribes, but as allies
    who fought alongside each other.
[14:25] ---
    That follows.
[14:27] ---
    Incidentally...
[14:30] ---
    ...during the previous battle,
    in which the Red Eye did not fight,
[14:33] ---
    how did you manage to survive?
[14:36] ---
    Do I really have to say?
[14:39] ---
    I'd like you to tell me.
    Was it priestly power?
[14:42] ---
    Or was it by some other means?
[14:44] ---
    It may prove to be our salvation.
[14:47] ---
    It won't.
[14:49] ---
    It will not be our salvation.
[14:52] ---
    What we engaged in was cannibalism.
[14:56] ---
    We fed on our fallen friends.
[15:03] ---
    At the time, our tribe found itself
    in a similarly dire situation
[15:06] ---
    owing to a shortage of food.
[15:10] ---
    However, one day,
    the chief came to us with food--
[15:14] ---
    bright red meat.
[15:17] ---
    All of us were vaguely aware
    of where the meat came from.
[15:22] ---
    After all, whenever the chief
    brought us the meat,
[15:24] ---
    it was invariably after
    he had expelled a family
[15:27] ---
    who had violated our strict laws.
[15:29] ---
    We simply closed our eyes, and ate the meat.
[15:34] ---
    In order to survive.
[15:36] ---
    Still, it wasn't as though
    that could go on indefinitely.
[15:40] ---
    Before long, the pent-up frustration
    came to an explosive head,
[15:42] ---
    and manifested itself
    in the form of an insurrection.
[15:46] ---
    I, as the one who was the
    second-most-powerful next to the chief,
[15:48] ---
    became the banner they rallied to,
    and we rose in revolt against the chief.
[15:53] ---
    The fighting divided the village in two,
[15:56] ---
    but with our greater numbers,
    we were the ones who secured victory.
[16:00] ---
    The chief refused
    to back down to the very end,
[16:04] ---
    and after receiving countless wounds,
    he was on the verge of death.
[16:07] ---
    Then, at the moment
    when the fatal blow was struck,
[16:10] ---
    he smiled at me.
[16:13] ---
    It was a truly sweet smile.
[16:17] ---
    Through the death of the chief,
    the tribe was brought back together.
[16:22] ---
    Moreover, since our numbers
    had decreased,
[16:24] ---
    the great gift of recovery
    from our food situation came with it.
[16:28] ---
    We were in the wrong, weren't we?
[16:30] ---
    The chief, who acted out of
    a clear view of reality,
[16:33] ---
    was actually the one in the right, wasn't he?
[16:37] ---
    I can't shake those thoughts.
[16:45] ---
    We are neither omniscient nor omnipotent.
[16:48] ---
    If I were in your position,
    I might have done the same thing.
[16:51] ---
    But I don't want to offer you solace.
[16:54] ---
    Are there ever any
    correct answers in this world?
[16:57] ---
    The only thing we can do is keep walking,
[17:00] ---
    even as we afflict the soles
    of our feet with woe and remorse.
[17:04] ---
    You, too, must keep walking.
    That's what I think.
[17:12] ---
    I'm sorry you had to
    see me look so disgraceful.
[17:15] ---
    What disgrace?
[17:17] ---
    What's more, do I look like a male
    who's foolish enough to believe
[17:21] ---
    that anyone who
    keeps moving along their road,
[17:22] ---
    even as they are tormented
    and scarred by it, is disgraceful?
[17:27] ---
    You are beautiful.
[17:32] ---
    Yikes...
[17:36] ---
    Let me ask you once again.
[17:38] ---
    Which policy will the Red Eye adopt?
[17:40] ---
    After our discussion yesterday,
    we have decided on evacuation.
[17:44] ---
    Then let me ask you,
    Acting Chief Crusch Lulu,
[17:48] ---
    do you still feel the same?
[17:54] ---
    It is for you to decide. When the
    previous chief smiled at you at the end,
[17:59] ---
    it was because he was
    giving this future over to you.
[18:02] ---
    If true, now is the time
    for you to fulfill that calling.
[18:07] ---
    In that case, let me ask you,
[18:08] ---
    how many do you plan on
    letting escape as refugees?
[18:14] ---
    Ten from the warrior class,
    12 hunters, 3 priests,
[18:18] ---
    70 males, 100 females,
    and a number of children.
[18:21] ---
    And other than them?
[18:23] ---
    If the situation calls for it, they will die.
[18:28] ---
    I see.
[18:30] ---
    There's one thing I'd like to make clear--
    we are not fighting to die.
[18:35] ---
    We're fighting to win!
[18:40] ---
    In that case, we of the Red Eye
    will fight with you.
[18:44] ---
    To make sure our chief's smile
    was not meaningless.
[18:48] ---
    As well as to ensure that as many of
    the Red Eye tribe as possible will survive.
[18:54] ---
    You have my gratitude.
[19:08] ---
    Good morning.
[19:09] ---
    Yeah, good morning.
[19:11] ---
    It looks like you brought the tribe
    around without any issue.
[19:14] ---
    I'm grateful that you took part
    in the discussions until so late last night.
[19:18] ---
    Those who will fight should be able
    to leave within the day.
[19:21] ---
    Those who are evacuating, as well.
[19:24] ---
    Zaryusu, what will you do now?
[19:27] ---
    I plan to head over
    to the Dragon Tusk tribe.
[19:31] ---
    Although, I do have a question...
[19:33] ---
    What's with that getup?
[19:36] ---
    It doesn't look good on me?
[19:38] ---
    Would you like me to say
    it looks good on you?
[19:41] ---
    Don't be silly. The light of the sun
    is hard on me when I'm out and about.
[19:45] ---
    You're planning to come with me?
[19:47] ---
    The Dragon Tusk have the greatest
    force of arms of all the tribes, right?
[19:51] ---
    Yeah. But since we have no dealings
    with them, we're not well informed.
[19:56] ---
    Then it's best that I go with you.
[19:59] ---
    It will be dangerous.
[20:00] ---
    Is there anywhere right now
    that isn't dangerous?
[20:05] ---
    I'm not thinking rationally, am I?
[20:08] ---
    All right. I'll avail myself
    of your help, Crusch.
[20:11] ---
    Very well, Zaryusu. You can count on me.
[20:17] ---
    These are the teleportation scrolls,
[20:21] ---
    and the "Message" scrolls.
[20:24] ---
    Lord Ains said they were made
    from parchment that we obtained
[20:27] ---
    through the efforts of Lord Demiurge.
[20:31] ---
    He says that he wants us to report
    if we have any problems using them.
[20:36] ---
    I see. Understood.
[20:38] ---
    So once again, Demiurge has
    distinguished himself over me.
[20:42] ---
    Also...
[20:44] ---
    ...we have been instructed to monitor
    the outcome of the battle from here.
[20:50] ---
    Understood.
[20:52] ---
    I want you to see this through,
[20:55] ---
    and deliver an absolute victory
    for the Supreme One!
[21:08] ---
    "Dragon Tusk Tribe Village"
[21:17] ---
    I am Zaryusu Shasha. I am here
    on behalf of the Green Claw tribe.
[21:22] ---
    I wish to speak to your chief.
[21:24] ---
    I am acting chief of
    the Red Eye tribe, Crusch Lulu.
[21:28] ---
    I, too, am here to meet with your chief.
[21:31] ---
    I'm glad you came, possessor of Frost Pain.
[21:38] ---
    And what might you be,
    some kind of plant monster?
[21:42] ---
    No, I'm not!
[21:44] ---
    Oh, please, don't take my joke so seriously.
[21:47] ---
    I am the Dragon Tusk chief, Zenberu Gugu.
    You can call me Zenberu.
[21:53] ---
    You are free to call me Zaryusu,
    as well. Now...
[21:56] ---
    I can already guess
    what you're going to say.
[21:59] ---
    However, we only trust
    those who are strong.
[22:04] ---
    Take up your sword.
[22:07] ---
