**[00:07] ---**
Very well, Lord Ains,
I will take my leave now.
**[00:13] ---**
Outstanding work. Keep the first floor
of Nazarick safe until we return.
**[00:18] ---**
As you wish.
**[00:21] ---**
Gate.
**[00:28] ---**
I apologize for the place
being so run-down, Lord Ains.
**[00:31] ---**
I was in a rush to get it ready
when I heard that you would be coming.
**[00:36] ---**
There is no need to be concerned.
**[00:39] ---**
You built this place for me,
**[00:42] ---**
so it is on par with even Nazarick.
**[00:45] ---**
Right!
**[00:47] ---**
Still, Aura, tell me one thing--
**[00:50] ---**
what is that?
**[00:52] ---**
Plain though it may be,
we prepared a throne for you.
**[00:57] ---**
What kind of bones are those?
**[00:59] ---**
Various different animals.
**[01:00] ---**
We assembled the best parts
of griffons, wyverns, and the like.
**[01:04] ---**
That's not what...
**[01:07] ---**
I see.
**[01:08] ---**
I don't care how you look at it,
those appear to be human bones, too!
**[01:12] ---**
I'm supposed to sit on *that*?
**[01:14] ---**
Shalltear...
**[01:17] ---**
I promised you I would give you
your punishment, right?
**[01:20] ---**
This is the perfect time.
I will give it to you now.
**[01:24] ---**
Yes, your humiliation.
**[01:30] ---**
Indeed! Brilliant!
**[01:35] ---**
Sorry, Demiurge. This is the way it is.
**[01:38] ---**
Seating yourself on a guardian?
**[01:40] ---**
Truly, such is a seat
worthy of the Supreme One,
**[01:43] ---**
which is to say,
one which no other could claim!
**[01:46] ---**
Leave it to you, Lord Ains.
I never even thought of this!
**[01:49] ---**
O-Oh, no?
**[01:53] ---**
Lord Ains, may I be excused
from the room for a moment?
**[01:57] ---**
I will return at once.
**[01:59] ---**
Hmm, well, all right. Go on.
**[02:01] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[02:21] ---**
I am back, Lord Ains.
**[02:23] ---**
Uh, mm-hmm.
**[02:25] ---**
Ah yes, Aura, when I left the room,
I bumped into the wall by mistake.
**[02:30] ---**
It appears to have been damaged.
Could you fix it up later for me?
**[02:33] ---**
I'm sorry about that.
**[02:35] ---**
Okay.
**[02:40] ---**
Shalltear, is this too hard on you?
**[02:43] ---**
--If so--
--It is not hard on me at all!
**[02:45] ---**
On the contrary, I take it as a reward!
**[02:50] ---**
No, this is the punishment
I gave to Shalltear.
**[02:56] ---**
Besides, Shalltear's slip-up
came about due to my failure.
**[03:00] ---**
Which means that suffering
through my desire to get out of this
**[03:03] ---**
is my punishment to myself.
**[03:05] ---**
Still, Peroroncino, just how kinky
did you configure her to be?!
**[04:42] ---**
All right, down to business.
**[04:46] ---**
Do you think we did
a decent job of alarming them?
**[04:48] ---**
I think it was perfect, Lord Ains.
**[04:51] ---**
Absolutely. Did you see
those Lizard Men's faces?
**[04:56] ---**
I see. Then I suppose the first stage
**[05:00] ---**
of the demonstration that Cocytus
hoped for was successful enough.
**[05:05] ---**
Now...
**[05:06] ---**
...how about a look at
what the Lizard Men are up to?
**[05:16] ---**
They're wasting their efforts.
**[05:20] ---**
Those would be the chiefs.
**[05:22] ---**
Hmm? The white one and the one
with the magic weapon aren't there.
**[05:28] ---**
Zaryusu was his name, wasn't it?
**[05:31] ---**
Ah, yes. That was his name.
**[05:34] ---**
Maybe he's inside one of the houses.
**[05:36] ---**
He could be.
**[05:41] ---**
Normally, the Mirror of Remote Viewing
can't offer a view indoors.
**[05:47] ---**
However, using magic,
I can create a sensory organ,
**[05:50] ---**
then by linking the two, I can...
**[06:00] ---**
No!
**[06:04] ---**
--What unpleasant creatures!
--Ugh...
**[06:06] ---**
--U-Um, I, er...
--Cocytus is just about to attack them!
**[06:09] ---**
--They should be given a punishment!
--Right! Absolutely right!
**[06:12] ---**
They really are rude, aren't they?!
**[06:14] ---**
Um... I, uh...
**[06:16] ---**
I'm so jealous...
**[06:20] ---**
Well, they *are* about to die.
I've seen in movies that in these situations,
**[06:25] ---**
the instinct to preserve the species kicks in,
or something. Mm-hmm.
**[06:29] ---**
--That is exactly correct!
--Yes, this much can be forgiven.
**[06:33] ---**
--Absolutely, absolutely!
--Yes, this much can be forgiven.
**[06:34] ---**
--You are right, Lord Ains!
--U-Uh, that is, um...
**[06:36] ---**
--I wish Lord Ains and I could--
--All of you, be quiet!
**[06:41] ---**
Somehow, the wind
has gone out of my sails now...
**[06:44] ---**
Oh, crap! That was too soon for Aura and Mare!
**[06:48] ---**
What am I going to tell them
when they ask where babies come from?!
**[06:52] ---**
Turn to Albedo? Ugh, out of the question.
**[06:55] ---**
Demiurge? He can probably
explain it clinically. He's in the running.
**[07:00] ---**
Shalltear? Hmm, that doesn't actually
sound as bad as I would have expected.
**[07:04] ---**
Whatever the case,
it's a problem for a later date.
**[07:08] ---**
Ahem, Aura, since there has been
no activity at this stage,
**[07:12] ---**
the chances of coming into contact
**[07:15] ---**
with the one who used the world item
on Shalltear seem extremely low,
**[07:19] ---**
but remain vigilant to your surroundings.
**[07:21] ---**
Right!
**[07:22] ---**
If there is an Yggdrasil player
on the Lizard Men's side,
**[07:26] ---**
and they won't ally with us,
we must destroy them with our full force,
**[07:31] ---**
to keep any information from getting out.
**[08:15] ---**
Are you telling me *that* is Cocytus?
**[08:22] ---**
All right, Lord Ains is watching on, as well.
Show us your brilliance.
**[08:31] ---**
But before we start...
**[08:33] ---**
Ice Pillars!
**[08:36] ---**
As warriors who have the resolve to come here,
**[08:38] ---**
pardon the affront,
but I must make an announcement.
**[08:42] ---**
On this side of that gate is your destruction.
**[08:45] ---**
Know that if you advance
beyond there, death awaits you.
**[08:50] ---**
Hey, man, this guy's
surprisingly nice, isn't he?
**[08:58] ---**
You all stay there--no, return to the village.
**[09:02] ---**
Wha--?! No, let us fight with you!
**[09:05] ---**
It is not cowardly to withdraw! Nor is living!
**[09:09] ---**
Then--
**[09:10] ---**
But there are some of us
Lizard Men who cannot retreat!
**[09:12] ---**
You would not accept the rule of those of us
**[09:14] ---**
who stand as chiefs
if we did not fight, would you?!
**[09:18] ---**
But Chief, we're here to fight!
**[09:21] ---**
You youngsters go home.
This is a job for us older warriors.
**[09:26] ---**
Hmm.
**[09:30] ---**
Sorry to keep you, Cocytus!
**[09:35] ---**
Charge!
**[09:41] ---**
I hate to do this to warriors,
but I must first reduce your numbers.
**[09:47] ---**
Frost Aura!
**[10:01] ---**
Hmm, seems about right.
**[10:15] ---**
Those of us who are guardian class
have all acquired items and so forth
**[10:19] ---**
that grant us resistance to ranged weapons.
**[10:28] ---**
God Slaying Emperor Blade!
**[10:35] ---**
Martial Art, Iron Natural Weapon!
**[10:39] ---**
Iron Skin!
**[10:47] ---**
Hmm, yes indeed. Not a bad sword.
**[10:52] ---**
Tch!
**[10:56] ---**
You're in the way.
**[11:00] ---**
Over Magic! Mass Slight Cure Wounds!
**[11:17] ---**
You still have the will to fight?
**[11:19] ---**
Then I will return this to you.
**[11:30] ---**
That is getting annoying. Piercing Icicles!
**[11:56] ---**
Now then, there are two of you left?
Lord Ains said as much,
**[12:02] ---**
and sure enough, you two lasted until the end.
**[12:05] ---**
My brother, how hurt are you?
**[12:08] ---**
Badly. The pain is still throbbing.
**[12:12] ---**
Even so, I can swing my sword
a few more times.
**[12:14] ---**
You can? Then that will be enough.
**[12:18] ---**
The truth is, I am just about
out of magic power.
**[12:22] ---**
If I don't watch out,
I could collapse right here.
**[12:24] ---**
Is that right? Brother, you push yourself
too hard. But, all the same,
**[12:30] ---**
I will continue to swing my sword,
right up until the last moment!
**[12:36] ---**
A fine battle cry.
**[12:38] ---**
Outstanding, my brother! You're right!
Let's fight until the very end!
**[12:45] ---**
Now, let's not keep you waiting, Sir Cocytus!
**[12:48] ---**
It is no matter to me.
**[12:50] ---**
I am not so boorish as to
come between brothers saying farewell.
**[12:54] ---**
Prepare yourselves--no, I beg your pardon.
**[12:57] ---**
You had already prepared yourselves
before we even began.
**[13:01] ---**
Allow me to formally ask your names.
**[13:04] ---**
Shasuryu Shasha.
**[13:06] ---**
Zaryusu Shasha.
**[13:09] ---**
I shall remember them as the names of warriors.
**[13:15] ---**
Also, allow me to apologize in advance.
**[13:18] ---**
Normally, I would face you
with weapons in each hand,
**[13:23] ---**
but you are not mighty enough
for me to draw both.
**[13:27] ---**
That's a shame.
**[13:29] ---**
It sure is. Here goes!
**[13:32] ---**
Earth Bind!
**[13:35] ---**
My defense cannot be penetrated by one
**[13:38] ---**
whose magic level is inferior to mine!
**[13:41] ---**
Icy Burst!
**[13:56] ---**
If you wish to take me by surprise,
**[13:59] ---**
you should do it quietly!
**[14:06] ---**
Blood?
**[14:08] ---**
All of that, for *this*?
**[14:12] ---**
Magnificent.
**[14:17] ---**
I'm sorry, but I have a skill
that temporarily negates attacks
**[14:21] ---**
by weapons with weak magic power.
As long as it is activated,
**[14:26] ---**
your attacks are meaningless.
**[14:32] ---**
However...!
**[14:39] ---**
Cocytus, you fought admirably.
**[14:43] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[14:45] ---**
That being said, what you gave them
this time was the stick.
**[14:49] ---**
From here on,
what you must give them is the carrot.
**[14:52] ---**
It must not be a reign of terror.
**[14:55] ---**
I understand.
**[14:57] ---**
Very good. Listen to me, guardians.
**[15:02] ---**
The rule over the Lizard Men villages
is assigned to Cocytus.
**[15:06] ---**
If ever Cocytus requests
your support, assist him.
**[15:10] ---**
Lord Ains, what is to be
the disposition of those Lizard Men?
**[15:15] ---**
Those Lizard Men...?
**[15:17] ---**
Yes. The one called Zaryusu,
and the one called Shasuryu.
**[15:22] ---**
Ah, yes. Let's recover their bodies,
**[15:25] ---**
and use them as subjects
in the creation of undead
**[15:29] ---**
that do not rely on my skill.
**[15:31] ---**
I believe we can do better.
**[15:33] ---**
Hmm? What do you mean?
**[15:35] ---**
While they were weaklings,
I also saw in them the brilliance of warriors
**[15:38] ---**
who did not balk at someone
stronger than themselves.
**[15:41] ---**
I believe they have the potential
to become stronger than we assume.
**[15:47] ---**
Lord Ains, you have not conducted
any experiments in raising the dead.
**[15:52] ---**
What if you were to use them for that?
**[15:55] ---**
The brilliance of warriors, he calls it?
**[16:00] ---**
I see. They're too precious to pass up, then?
**[16:03] ---**
Is there anyone who can
represent the Lizard Men villages?
**[16:07] ---**
There was one white Lizard Man
with druidic powers,
**[16:09] ---**
who did not participate in the fighting.
**[16:13] ---**
*That* one? You don't say.
**[16:16] ---**
All right, how long will it take
to bring her here?
**[16:20] ---**
Forgive me, but assuming you would ask that,
**[16:24] ---**
I have called her to the next room already.
**[16:26] ---**
Ho?
**[16:32] ---**
Not at all. Well done, Cocytus.
Your judgment was on the mark.
**[16:37] ---**
All right, then, bring her in.
**[16:40] ---**
Yes, my lord.
**[16:43] ---**
Tell me your name.
**[16:45] ---**
Yes, Lord Ains Ooal Gown,
great and supreme king of death.
**[16:50] ---**
I am Crusch Lulu,
here on behalf of the Lizard Men.
**[16:55] ---**
Mm-hmm, thanks for coming.
**[16:57] ---**
Yes, Lord Gown. Please accept
the absolute allegiance of the Lizard Men.
**[17:05] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[17:14] ---**
I have a special request for you.
**[17:18] ---**
If there is anything that I,
your loyal servant, can do, Lord Gown,
**[17:22] ---**
then please ask.
**[17:23] ---**
Not as my servant.
**[17:27] ---**
In return, I will return Zaryusu to life.
**[17:30] ---**
Is that possible...?
**[17:32] ---**
I am capable of manipulating
even life and death.
**[17:36] ---**
To me, death is nothing more
than a state of being.
**[17:41] ---**
Then, what do you desire of me,
your loyal slave?
**[17:47] ---**
Is it my body?
**[17:52] ---**
No, not exactly...
**[17:56] ---**
Ahem. Certainly not. It's simple.
**[17:59] ---**
I want you to keep a close watch to make sure
**[18:02] ---**
that there are no Lizard Men
who would betray me.
**[18:04] ---**
There are no such Lizard Men.
**[18:07] ---**
I am not so foolish as to actually believe that.
**[18:13] ---**
Right now, you have
a miracle hanging over you.
**[18:16] ---**
However, that miracle
will not necessarily last forever.
**[18:20] ---**
If you do not seize upon this moment,
it will all come to an end.
**[18:26] ---**
Crusch, what is the most important thing
to you? I want you to think about that.
**[18:34] ---**
I want you to covertly keep watch
on your fellow Lizard Men from the inside.
**[18:39] ---**
I will cast a special magic spell
on Zaryusu when I revive him.
**[18:43] ---**
If I determine that you have betrayed me,
**[18:46] ---**
the spell will immediately render him dead.
That will bring you grief.
**[18:52] ---**
However, it is a small price to pay
to have Zaryusu back, isn't it?
**[18:58] ---**
Except that there is no such spell.
**[19:08] ---**
Very well, Crusch Lulu, make your choice now.
**[19:14] ---**
Even if she declines, do nothing.
**[19:18] ---**
Well, what is your answer,
**[19:21] ---**
Crusch Lulu?
**[19:27] ---**
Zaryusu...
**[19:30] ---**
Zaryusu...
**[19:32] ---**
Zaryusu...
**[19:35] ---**
Zaryusu...
**[19:38] ---**
Zaryusu...
**[19:41] ---**
Zaryusu!
**[19:44] ---**
Zaryusu!
**[19:47] ---**
C-Crusch?!
**[19:51] ---**
Crusch, you were killed, too?
**[19:54] ---**
Huh?
**[19:56] ---**
Hmm, you have returned, but must be confused.
**[20:01] ---**
And it appears that some level loss
has occurred, as well.
**[20:04] ---**
I guess I can reason that
not much has changed after Yggdrasil.
**[20:12] ---**
What in the...?
**[20:13] ---**
Zaryusu Shasha,
**[20:15] ---**
first, allow me to congratulate you
on your resurrection.
**[20:18] ---**
R-Rethurrection...?
Y-You can bring the dead back to life?
**[20:29] ---**
Great One, I pledge my allegianth.
**[20:35] ---**
Very good. In the name of Ains Ooal Gown,
I give you my promise.
**[20:40] ---**
Prothperity for the Lithard Men.
**[20:44] ---**
Is that all? I can definitely
promise prosperity to all under my rule.
**[20:50] ---**
I offer my thankth.
**[20:53] ---**
Hmm, your speech is still faltering.
A little rest should remedy that.
**[20:58] ---**
Rest now. Then speak with Cocytus
about what is to follow.
**[21:04] ---**
Jutht a moment.
**[21:07] ---**
What about Thenberu and my brother?
**[21:10] ---**
Their bodies should still be around.
**[21:13] ---**
Can I athk you to pleathe
bring them back to life?
**[21:17] ---**
Hmm...
**[21:19] ---**
I don't see what that will gain me.
**[21:21] ---**
Then, why me? Thenberu and my brother
are thtrong. I'm thertain...
**[21:28] ---**
...they could be of uthe to you.
**[21:31] ---**
I'll consider it.
**[21:33] ---**
Keep their bodies safeguarded;
I'll take it under review.
**[21:37] ---**
Aura, let's go.
**[21:39] ---**
Right!
**[21:41] ---**
That hydra sure is cute, huh?
**[21:45] ---**
We thurvived--
or came back to life, at leatht...
**[21:53] ---**
It's all right. You can worry
about everything later, okay?
**[21:57] ---**
Right now, you have to rest,
and recover your strength.
**[22:01] ---**
Yeah...
**[22:03] ---**
Then that'th what I'll do...
**[22:06] ---**
