[00:00] ---
    Lupisregina. Do you know why I called for you?
[00:06] ---
    No.
[00:07] ---
    Then, have you heard that monsters
    called the Giant of the East
[00:11] ---
    and the Demon Snake of the West
    have been making movements?
[00:15] ---
    That I did not believe was
    worth reporting to the Supreme One.
[00:21] ---
    So, you knew?
[00:22] ---
    --Yes. That I...
    --You fool!
[00:26] ---
    Why did you not report this to me?
    Or did you try to hide it from me?
[00:31] ---
    N-Not at all!
[00:33] ---
    I thought the information
    wasn't of importance...
[00:36] ---
    Lupisregina! I am disappointed in you!
[00:41] ---
    She failed at basic
    communication and reporting!
[00:43] ---
    That is unacceptable in any large organization.
[00:46] ---
    Wait...
[00:48] ---
    Lupisregina.
[00:50] ---
    Do you understand the value
    of that village to Nazarick?
[00:54] ---
    Um, it is a village that Lord Ains
    used for experimentation.
[00:58] ---
    And... a place with many toys.
[01:01] ---
    Oh, I see.
[01:03] ---
    I apologize. This was due to my mistake.
[01:07] ---
    I did not realize you thought
    so little of the place.
[01:09] ---
    Allow me to take back my words.
    I overspoke. Forgive me.
[01:13] ---
    What are you saying?!
    It is my fault for being so stupid!
[01:18] ---
    Then, be careful next time.
[01:22] ---
    I will teach you the value of that village.
[02:56] ---
    That village has its value.
[02:59] ---
    Especially Nphirea and his grandmother.
[03:03] ---
    The two of them are
    developing a new potion for me.
[03:08] ---
    That's right! I have something
    to give you, Lord Ains!
[03:13] ---
    What is this?
[03:14] ---
    Yes! It is a new potion
    that Nphirea has created!
[03:20] ---
    Well, that is fine.
[03:22] ---
    This potion has increased the value
    of the Balear family once again.
[03:28] ---
    The potions of this world are blue
    and no matter how high the quality,
[03:33] ---
    they deteriorate over time.
[03:35] ---
    However, the potion I know
    from Yggdrasil is red and does not spoil.
[03:41] ---
    Nphirea is working on a Yggdrasil potion
    that does not depend on
[03:46] ---
    any items or skills from Yggdrasil.
[03:49] ---
    The creation of a completely
    different potion is acceptable as well.
[03:55] ---
    He is important enough that I would have
    loved to imprison him in Nazarick
[03:59] ---
    and have him do his research here.
[04:01] ---
    After all, knowledge is power.
[04:03] ---
    Then, why do you not do exactly that?
[04:06] ---
    Earning his trust and
    having his gratitude chain him down
[04:09] ---
    will bring us greater gain
    over time than forcing the labor.
[04:14] ---
    Please explain one thing
    that I am too foolish to understand.
[04:18] ---
    Then, why did you give
    the Britta woman a red potion, Lord Ains?
[04:23] ---
    Britta?
[04:27] ---
    Oh, come to think of it...
[04:29] ---
    What are you talking about?
[04:31] ---
    Y-Yes. I heard from Narberal once...
[04:34] ---
    He once gave a Yggdrasil potion to
    a woman adventurer in E-Rantel named Britta.
[04:45] ---
    True, that was a dangerous move.
[04:47] ---
    However, it was worth
    taking the risk to gain what I needed.
[04:52] ---
    Wh-What is that?!
[04:54] ---
    I had thought it was
    to replace that woman's potion?!
[04:57] ---
    Did you really think that was all, Narberal?
[05:01] ---
    I-I apologize!
[05:04] ---
    Nphirea.
[05:05] ---
    Nphirea, you say?
[05:08] ---
    Well...
[05:10] ---
    What does one do when they receive
    a red potion that they have never seen before?
[05:15] ---
    They ask someone for advice about it?
[05:19] ---
    That's right! As I had planned,
[05:22] ---
    she went to the most skilled and
    trusted potion maker she knew, did she not?
[05:26] ---
    That is how I came into contact with Nphirea.
[05:31] ---
    I see! So that was the reason!
[05:34] ---
    It seems you finally understand.
[05:36] ---
    I was able to make it believable!
[05:38] ---
    Do you always take action like this,
[05:41] ---
    thinking two to three steps
    ahead of the others, Lord Ains?
[05:45] ---
    Of course. I am the ruler of
    the Great Tomb of Nazarick, Ains Ooal Gown!
[05:55] ---
    --Lupisregina.
    --Yes.
[05:57] ---
    The most important person
    in that village in Nphirea.
[06:00] ---
    And number two is Enri Emmot,
[06:03] ---
    as his love for her is a chain that keeps him there.
[06:06] ---
    Last is Nphirea's grandmother, Lizzy.
[06:10] ---
    All the others are of no consequence,
    but you must protect those three at all costs.
[06:14] ---
    Yes!
[06:15] ---
    Then, Lupisregina. Now that
    you know my plans, I will not allow failure.
[06:20] ---
    --Understand?
    --Of course!
[06:22] ---
    Good. Now, go.
[06:25] ---
    Fulfill your duty to the fullest!
[06:27] ---
    Yes!
[06:28] ---
    Excuse us.
[06:32] ---
    Lord Ains is freaking amazing!
[06:34] ---
    Be quiet.
[06:38] ---
    Goodness. No matter how wonderful
    Lord Ains is, she is much too excited.
[06:42] ---
    It is fine.
[06:44] ---
    Aura, what do you know about the Giant
    of the East and the Demon Snake of the West?
[06:48] ---
    Yes.
[06:50] ---
    Um, I'm very sorry.
    I have no information on such monsters.
[06:56] ---
    I combed the forest for strong enemies,
    but could not find any such creatures...
[07:01] ---
    Something of Hamusuke's level
    can hardly be considered strong.
[07:04] ---
    It would have been easy to miss them.
[07:07] ---
    Shall I clean them up?
[07:08] ---
    If I send in a few of my pets,
    it will be an easy task!
[07:13] ---
    That would be boring.
[07:15] ---
    The Giant of the East
    and Demon Snake of the West,
[07:17] ---
    I would like to see
    what kind of monsters they are.
[07:20] ---
    We should see if we can create a test
    for Lupisregina at the same time.
[07:27] ---
    The home of the Giant of the East
    should be right up ahead.
[07:32] ---
    I see.
[07:33] ---
    So how shall we dispose of these fools
    that dare go against you, Lord Ains?
[07:39] ---
    Let us try talking to them first.
[07:42] ---
    Huh?
[07:43] ---
    If the Giant of the East and
    Demon Snake of the West are monsters
[07:46] ---
    that did not exist in Yggdrasil,
    I'd like to capture them.
[07:50] ---
    You are so kind, Lord Ains.
[07:53] ---
    R-Really?
[07:54] ---
    I am only kind to those
    who are worthy or from Nazarick.
[08:02] ---
    If they are existences like Hamusuke,
    I merely believe they have some worth.
[08:08] ---
    Seize every golden opportunity, was it?
[08:10] ---
    Is Hamusuke that valuable?
[08:13] ---
    He is. He has been a useful test subject.
[08:17] ---
    Are you talking about the Lizard Men training?
[08:20] ---
    Yes. I am having him train with
    a death knight to become a warrior.
[08:25] ---
    I am seeing if it is possible for them
    to obtain the class of warrior.
[08:30] ---
    If the death knight
    can evolve into the warrior class,
[08:34] ---
    it will greatly increase the power of Nazarick.
[08:38] ---
    Well, it probably won't be possible.
[08:41] ---
    But I'm not sure about Hamusuke.
[08:43] ---
    If we only had another for comparison.
[08:47] ---
    Lord Ains, is there something wrong?
[08:50] ---
    Hm? No, it's nothing.
[08:52] ---
    I was just lost in thought. Do not worry.
[08:55] ---
    Is that so?
[09:00] ---
    She's so skinny. Were the waists
    of children this small?
[09:07] ---
    Wh-What is it, Lord Ains?!
[09:10] ---
    Oh, no. I was just thinking
    that you have a very small waist.
[09:12] ---
    Are you eating properly?
[09:14] ---
    Y-Yes. As you have ordered,
    I eat three meals a day on a set schedule!
[09:19] ---
    Yes, I see. Make sure to eat properly.
[09:22] ---
    Yes! I will eat properly
    and make Shalltear jealous of me!
[09:26] ---
    Eventually, all of you
    will have relationships with others...
[09:30] ---
    Huh?! It's way too early for me, Lord Ains.
    I'm still only 70 years old!
[09:36] ---
    O-Oh, that's right. For a dark elf,
    you are still just a child.
[09:41] ---
    By the way, who do you like
    in Nazarick, Aura? What is your type?
[09:46] ---
    I love you the best, Lord Ains.
[09:50] ---
    That makes me happy.
[09:51] ---
    Then, who do you love the most, Lord Ains?
[09:55] ---
    Hm? I love you, too, Aura.
[10:00] ---
    Emotional development for the children, huh?
[10:02] ---
    If there is a school for dark elves,
    should I send Aura and Mare there?
[10:08] ---
    L-Lord Ains!
[10:11] ---
    What's wrong? That was very loud.
[10:12] ---
    I-I'm sorry...
[10:14] ---
    There is no need to apologize.
[10:16] ---
    More importantly, about your future...
[10:19] ---
    The future?!
[10:21] ---
    Yes, that's right. In the future,
    if there is a country of dark elves,
[10:24] ---
    I will have you go with me there.
[10:26] ---
    Huh? Oh, yes! That kind of future.
[10:29] ---
    Understood. I will accompany you.
[10:33] ---
    And, we have almost reached
    our destination, Lord Ains.
[10:37] ---
    Aura, will you have the beasts
    you brought with you on standby nearby?
[10:42] ---
    Yes! Let's go, everyone!
[10:53] ---
    How laughable, Aura. It seems they
    tried to copy what you were building.
[10:59] ---
    Lord Ains, that is their nest.
[11:07] ---
    There are no guards. How careless.
[11:10] ---
    What a terrible smell.
[11:12] ---
    A gas trap? No, this could just be coincidence.
[11:17] ---
    Looking at the footsteps,
    it seems multiple creatures live here.
[11:22] ---
    It seems we cannot expect
    much intelligence from them.
[11:25] ---
    I hope we can at least converse...
[11:36] ---
    Hey, ogres.
[11:38] ---
    Sorry for interrupting your meal.
[11:44] ---
    For a doorbell, they are
    too noisy and lack any class.
[11:47] ---
    Skeleton!
[11:49] ---
    Skeleton! Enemy!
[11:51] ---
    Aura, stand back.
[11:57] ---
    How dirty!
[12:03] ---
    Y-You different from skeleton!
[12:05] ---
    Please don't think of me as a mere skeleton.
[12:08] ---
    I am here to see your boss,
    the Giant of the East.
[12:12] ---
    Will you call him here?
[12:14] ---
    Well, I think he'd come if I just wait, but...
[12:18] ---
    Shoot. The hand was so dirty,
    I accidentally used too much strength.
[12:23] ---
    It cannot be helped.
[12:25] ---
    A weak and vulgar ogre dared to
    try and touch you, Lord Ains.
[12:29] ---
    I'm glad to hear you say that.
[12:31] ---
    Punitto Moe once said, "Punching them
    to make them listen to you isn't a bad idea."
[12:37] ---
    Or was that Warrior Takemikazuchi...?
[12:40] ---
    If the supreme beings say so, it must be true.
[12:44] ---
    Those two were both really extreme people...
[13:04] ---
    A troll, huh?
[13:05] ---
    That's a bit far from being a giant,
    but it doesn't seem to be a complete lie.
[13:11] ---
    Is he similar in strength to Hamusuke?
[13:13] ---
    It seems so.
[13:16] ---
    You are the Giant of the East?
[13:19] ---
    Then, I hope that you are
    the Demon Snake of the West. Are you?
[13:23] ---
    You may think you are hiding
    with Invisibility, but I can see through it.
[13:29] ---
    Why not stop doing such
    a pointless thing and answer me?
[13:34] ---
    Oh, you're a naga.
[13:36] ---
    It's true that you are a type of snake,
    but I feel like the description was off.
[13:41] ---
    You saw through my invisibility.
    You are not a normal skele--
[13:44] ---
    Skeleton! What did you come here for?!
[13:47] ---
    I am not a skeleton. I will have you
    correct that inaccurate description.
[13:51] ---
    Then, what are you?
[13:53] ---
    The King of the Eastern Forest, Guu,
    will allow you to say your name.
[13:58] ---
    --Guu?
    --Guu?
[14:00] ---
    I see. So your name is Guu.
[14:03] ---
    I apologize for the late introduction.
[14:05] ---
    My name is Ains Ooal Gown.
[14:16] ---
    Unlike my powerful name,
    yours is that of a coward!
[14:20] ---
    --Cowa--
    --Stay calm.
[14:23] ---
    Mysterious undead.
[14:24] ---
    These creatures believe
    long names signify a lack of courage.
[14:28] ---
    So, do you believe me to be a coward as well?
[14:32] ---
    No, not at all. I also have a long name.
[14:36] ---
    I am what you call the Demon Snake
    of the West, Ryraryus Spenia Ai Indarun.
[14:43] ---
    So why have you come, weak one?
[14:46] ---
    I am making a fortress in the center
    of the forest using golems and undead.
[14:51] ---
    Do you know of it?
[14:54] ---
    I know! Intruder!
[14:56] ---
    If this snake didn't whine so much,
    we would have already gone over to kill you!
[15:01] ---
    Now we don't have to go through the trouble.
[15:03] ---
    That makes things a lot easier.
[15:05] ---
    So, I came here because
    I wish to negotiate with you.
[15:11] ---
    If you value your lives,
    submit yourselves to me.
[15:14] ---
    You fool! I would never submit to a weakling!
[15:18] ---
    Guu! It is dangerous to underestimate him!
[15:20] ---
    You are going to be eaten here!
[15:23] ---
    After that, I'll eat
    the little shorty next to you!
[15:28] ---
    You howl more than a dog, you ball of flesh.
[15:33] ---
    What did you say?!
[15:34] ---
    Then, let's do this.
[15:36] ---
    How about you, who has such a strong name,
[15:39] ---
    fight me, who you call weak, in a duel?
[15:43] ---
    You wouldn't run away scared, now would you?
[15:46] ---
    Interesting! I will tear you apart and eat you!
[15:50] ---
    All right. It seems you've made your choice.
[16:04] ---
    Why do you look so confused?
[16:18] ---
    I see. The healing capabilities of a troll.
[16:29] ---
    The strong hold the power
    of life and death over the weak.
[16:32] ---
    However, that was distasteful.
[16:35] ---
    Guu! He is not normal!
    We must work together to defeat him!
[16:38] ---
    Shut up!
[16:44] ---
    Goodness.
[16:46] ---
    I wish you wouldn't wrinkle my clothes.
[16:49] ---
    Are you finished attacking?
[17:07] ---
    Being a coward does not mean being weak.
[17:11] ---
    Even with that acorn-sized brain,
    surely you've come to realize it?
[17:18] ---
    Aura, don't let that one escape.
[17:22] ---
    Lord Ains. I've caught him,
    but what do you plan to do with him?
[17:26] ---
    You little brat! I will squeeze you to death...
[17:30] ---
    Hey, I can't see Lord Ains'
    majestic form like this.
[17:35] ---
    If you keep resisting,
    I'm going to crush your throat halfway.
[17:39] ---
    Aura, move some ways away so that
    it doesn't die from the collateral damage.
[17:45] ---
    Understood!
[17:49] ---
    Now then, you've healed up.
[17:52] ---
    Let us continue.
[17:55] ---
    What did you do? What are you doing? Magic?
[17:59] ---
    Huh? How strange.
[18:01] ---
    The almighty Lord Guu, stepped back
    from someone with a cowardly name like me.
[18:08] ---
    Why is that?
[18:10] ---
    That is because your name
    is a valiant one, Lord Ains.
[18:13] ---
    And the weird name of Guu is a cowardly one.
[18:17] ---
    Right, snake?
[18:18] ---
    D-Dat's right!
[18:19] ---
    It is the proof of
    Lord Ains Ooal Gown's greatness!
[18:23] ---
    I see. I see. That makes sense.
[18:26] ---
    You bastard!
[18:28] ---
    Shut up, coward!
[18:33] ---
    As expected of a troll.
[18:36] ---
    Your healing capabilities are so strong
    that you can recover from being minced.
[18:40] ---
    Though it seems you can feel all the pain.
[18:45] ---
    Wh-What are you?!
    Why don't my attacks reach you?!
[18:50] ---
    I am death. I am someone
    who brings you death!
[18:55] ---
    A-All of you! Kill him!
[19:00] ---
    Oh? As expected of someone
    who has the name of a coward.
[19:04] ---
    To break your promise of a one-on-one duel...
[19:07] ---
    It would be troublesome if you escaped.
[19:09] ---
    I believe I have played around enough.
[19:12] ---
    Aura of Despair, Level 5.
[19:24] ---
    I-I will submit to you! I wish to
    serve you with every ounce of my being!
[19:33] ---
    Well, that is fine. I did originally
    come here for negotiations.
[19:38] ---
    Have we collected data on a troll zombie yet?
[19:46] ---
    A magic weapon?
[19:48] ---
    It may be useful for increasing the power
    of an individual from that village.
[19:53] ---
    Do you have subordinates?
[19:55] ---
    A troll would be nice.
[19:57] ---
    I have only one.
[19:59] ---
    Wonderful. Then we can
    use him as a substitute.
[20:04] ---
    No, that would be difficult.
[20:07] ---
    Okay, bring any subordinates you have with you
[20:09] ---
    to the building we are
    constructing in the forest.
[20:11] ---
    Aura, let him go.
[20:13] ---
    Are you sure?
[20:14] ---
    I do not mind. If he betrays me...
[20:17] ---
    B-Betrayal?! I would never
    be able to do such a thing!
[20:22] ---
    Only fools who haven't seen
[20:23] ---
    those cold eyes that look upon you
    like an ant could do such a thing!
[20:29] ---
    Well, all right.
[20:30] ---
    Hurry up and leave this place.
    Bring your subordinates.
[20:34] ---
    That is my first order!
[20:36] ---
    Yes!
[20:39] ---
    A food menu?
[20:41] ---
    I want to ask for your opinion.
[20:44] ---
    It would be a meal for a human man
    and woman. Perhaps a child as well.
[20:48] ---
    I believe that humans
    should eat anything and everything
[20:51] ---
    that Lord Ains would present them,
    without complaint.
[20:56] ---
    But that does not seem to be
    the answer you are searching for...
[21:01] ---
    If there is a child, something like
    foie gras may not be to their taste.
[21:05] ---
    Also, I believe something
    refreshing would be good?
[21:12] ---
    I see. That has been of some help. Thank you.
[21:15] ---
    I am unworthy of your praise.
[21:17] ---
    Lord Ains, do you plan to invite someone
    to the holy place of the supreme beings,
[21:23] ---
    our Great Tomb of Nazarick?
[21:25] ---
    Is there a problem with that?
[21:27] ---
    No, not at all.
