[00:09] ---
    We will return for your decision
    the day after tomorrow.
[00:12] ---
    Will that be all right, Mr. Sebas?
[00:23] ---
    Going out?
[00:24] ---
    --Yeah.
    --Do you have any money?
[00:26] ---
    No, but if I need to, I can sell an item--
[00:30] ---
    Take that.
[00:32] ---
    Thanks. I'll take it.
[01:01] ---
    Yo, virgin!
[02:35] ---
    It has been too long, Lady Gagaran.
[02:38] ---
    Er, I mean, Miss Gagaran.
[02:40] ---
    Yeah.
[02:41] ---
    And you, too, Lady Evileye.
[02:43] ---
    Long time no see.
    What's up, you here to get lucky with me?
[02:48] ---
    No, not that.
    Lady Aindra is visiting Princess Renner,
[02:53] ---
    and she asked me to give you a message.
[02:55] ---
    Hmm? Lakyus did?
[02:57] ---
    Yes. She says, "We're going to be
    going into action on the double.
[03:00] ---
    I want you to get ready
    to go into battle at a moment's notice."
[03:05] ---
    Okay, but you went to a lot
    of trouble for such a minor chore.
[03:09] ---
    Not at all. Also, I was fortunate enough
[03:13] ---
    to have Lord Stronoff
    train me in swordsmanship.
[03:17] ---
    He complimented me on that
    strike from above that you taught me.
[03:22] ---
    Oh, that? No kidding? Nice going!
[03:27] ---
    --Even so...
    --I know. I will not become complacent,
[03:30] ---
    and wish to devote myself to further training.
[03:32] ---
    That's good and all, but I figure
    that move could be countered.
[03:36] ---
    It's time you came up with
    another move you can transition to.
[03:39] ---
    Oh, Lord Stronoff told me the same thing.
[03:42] ---
    I'll bet. Come to think of it, you asked
    Evileye for something, too, right?
[03:47] ---
    Magic training, was it?
[03:49] ---
    Yes.
[03:51] ---
    Kid, you don't have the talent.
[03:55] ---
    Direct your efforts elsewhere.
[04:00] ---
    You don't seem convinced.
[04:03] ---
    Those who possess talent
    have it from the outset.
[04:06] ---
    Take Gazef Stronoff--he's a good example.
[04:10] ---
    Can you ever catch up
    to where he is on effort alone?
[04:15] ---
    I'm not telling you to give up;
    just know what you're up against.
[04:22] ---
    Foolishness. Utter foolishness.
[04:26] ---
    Those who chase after an unattainable dream
[04:28] ---
    are certain to ruin themselves.
[04:31] ---
    I am aware of that.
[04:33] ---
    You're the type bound for an early grave.
[04:35] ---
    There are those who will weep for you
    when you die, aren't there?
[04:38] ---
    What's this, Evileye?
[04:40] ---
    You've been picking on Climb
    because you're worried about him?
[04:43] ---
    Musclehead! Keep your voice down!
[04:44] ---
    Well it's true, isn't it?
[04:48] ---
    First, gain some magic knowledge.
    Once you increase your knowledge,
[04:52] ---
    you'll be able to tell what
    your magic-using opponents are after.
[04:56] ---
    Then you can take the appropriate actions.
[04:59] ---
    Right.
[05:00] ---
    Climb, don't do anything
    to resign your humanity,
[05:03] ---
    just because you want more power.
[05:06] ---
    Huh?
[05:07] ---
    Sure, it's not as though humans
    as a species have all that much ability.
[05:13] ---
    In fact, many of the Thirteen Heroes
    were species other than human.
[05:18] ---
    Black Knight, the former owner
    of the cursed sword Kilineiram,
[05:23] ---
    now wielded by our leader,
    had part demonic bloodlines.
[05:26] ---
    Hmm... the cursed sword Kilineiram, huh?
[05:30] ---
    Tell me, is that business about it
    having enough black energy
[05:34] ---
    to swallow up a whole nation
    when its power is released for real?
[05:38] ---
    Where did you hear that?
[05:41] ---
    Lakyus said it earlier, when she was by herself.
[05:46] ---
    This is the most powerful of dark swords,
[05:48] ---
    created by the concentration
    of darkness unbound, all right.
[05:50] ---
    Even with a maiden like me,
    in the service of God,
[05:53] ---
    restraining it with all I have,
    I still wrestle with it!
[05:57] ---
    Hmm.
[05:58] ---
    Then, another time...
[06:02] ---
    Don't underestimate my dark power,
    rooted in blackness!
[06:05] ---
    I will dominate your flesh
    and unleash my cursed sword power!
[06:10] ---
    Tonight is the time when your power
    is at its greatest, to be sure.
[06:13] ---
    But I will not let you do as you wish,
    even if it eats away at my own life!
[06:17] ---
    Ring of the Holy Valkyrie,
    grant me your protection!
[06:21] ---
    Hey, Lakyus!
[06:22] ---
    Gah!
[06:24] ---
    I-I'm all right, don't worry!
[06:29] ---
    Hmm, the priestess was embarrassed
    to be controlled by a cursed item.
[06:35] ---
    So those pointless armor rings
    weren't just for fashion's sake, then?
[06:39] ---
    Princess Renner is in danger.
    You two, come with me, right now!
[06:42] ---
    Don't panic!
[06:44] ---
    This isn't something we can do
    anything about anytime soon.
[06:47] ---
    Either way, the only thing
    that can stop adamantite is adamantite.
[06:51] ---
    Yeah. Hmm? That reminds me of something.
[06:55] ---
    I hear that a third
    adamantite class adventurer team
[06:58] ---
    has sprung up in E-Rantel.
[07:00] ---
    What? This is news to me. What's their name?
[07:04] ---
    As I recall, it was Momon.
[07:06] ---
    A warrior known as
    the Raven Black Hero is their leader,
[07:09] ---
    and they're a party of two,
    along with a magic caster named Nabe.
[07:12] ---
    Huh? Just two of them?
    So, what great exploits have they had?
[07:18] ---
    First, they resolved an incident in E-Rantel
[07:20] ---
    where thousands of undead appeared.
[07:22] ---
    Then, they exterminated the
    Goblin Tribal Coalition headed northward,
[07:27] ---
    retrieved ultra-rare medicinal herbs
    from the Great Forest of Tob,
[07:31] ---
    slayed a gigant basilisk,
[07:33] ---
    as well as defeated a vampire
    possessing tremendous power, I hear.
[07:39] ---
    Also, they subjugated the Wise King
    of the Forest with their power,
[07:43] ---
    and are keeping him in submission.
[07:46] ---
    That's pretty awesome, isn't it?
[07:48] ---
    You mean, that would be hard,
    even for you, Miss Gagaran?
[07:52] ---
    Thousands of undead wouldn't be a problem,
[07:55] ---
    but a gigant basilisk,
    with its petrifying gaze and toxic venom?
[08:00] ---
    Without restorative measures,
    that would be too much for me.
[08:03] ---
    That is the ultimate foe for a warrior.
[08:06] ---
    I know how strong Blue Rose is.
[08:09] ---
    Miss Gagaran, there is no way you could
    be outdone by any newcomers to town!
[08:13] ---
    Whoo! Thanks for the high praise.
[08:15] ---
    --Okay, sleep with me.
    --No, I must decline.
[08:18] ---
    See, this is why you're still a virgin!
[08:21] ---
    This idle chit-chat has gone on a bit too long.
[08:23] ---
    We need to go do as Lakyus said
    and begin getting ready.
[08:28] ---
    Please do.
[08:29] ---
    --Climb...
    --Yes?
[08:31] ---
    That sword on your hip--
    that isn't your usual weapon, is it?
[08:34] ---
    No, this is a backup sword.
[08:37] ---
    There's no telling what might happen.
[08:39] ---
    You should always keep a weapon on you.
[08:41] ---
    Also, you have the items I gave you?
[08:44] ---
    Do you mean those bells?
    Yes, they are right here.
[08:48] ---
    Good.
[08:49] ---
    Keep three healing potions on you, just in case.
[08:53] ---
    Understood.
[08:54] ---
    You're a bigger mother hen
    than I'd have expected.
[08:56] ---
    Stop teasing me.
[09:03] ---
    You punk-ass brat!
[09:05] ---
    You're filthy!
[09:07] ---
    All he did was bump into him.
[09:09] ---
    They're going to kill him like this.
[09:21] ---
    What kind of moves were those?
[09:23] ---
    Hey, old man, what are you trying to pull?
[09:26] ---
    Back off, if you know what's good for you.
[09:29] ---
    Let me through!
[09:32] ---
    Huh? What was that, old man?
[09:34] ---
    I will say it again. Depart from here.
[09:36] ---
    Why, you...!
[09:45] ---
    Shall we keep going?
[09:49] ---
    W-We're sorry!
[09:52] ---
    Hey there!
[09:54] ---
    Are you okay? Shake it off.
    You have no broken bones.
[09:59] ---
    I'm going to give you some medicine now.
[10:02] ---
    Here, can you swallow this?
[10:04] ---
    That's it. Nice and slow. Good.
[10:09] ---
    There's nothing to worry about now.
[10:13] ---
    Excuse me...
[10:28] ---
    Excuse me!
[10:31] ---
    Is there something you need?
[10:36] ---
    Who exactly are you?
[10:39] ---
    My name is Climb,
    and I am one of this land's soldiers.
[10:43] ---
    Thank you for doing what ordinarily
    would have been my job.
[10:48] ---
    It was no bother. Now, I must be going.
[10:52] ---
    Please wait!
[10:53] ---
    If you would not mind, could you
    teach me that move you did back there?
[10:58] ---
    How do you mean?
[11:00] ---
    I am trying to improve myself,
    so that I can become stronger.
[11:05] ---
    After seeing your outstanding moves,
[11:06] ---
    I was hoping that you might
    teach me even a little of your technique.
[11:12] ---
    Hmm, all right, please show me your hands.
[11:16] ---
    Sure.
[11:21] ---
    Thick and firm. Good hands for a warrior.
[11:25] ---
    Oh, no, I am no more than a negligible warrior.
[11:29] ---
    I do not think you need to be modest.
[11:32] ---
    Now, may I see your sword?
[11:35] ---
    Right.
[11:38] ---
    Hmm, is this your backup weapon?
[11:41] ---
    How did you know that?
[11:42] ---
    It has a number of dings in it.
[11:45] ---
    I am embarrassed that you had to see that.
[11:48] ---
    I see. I now have a rudimentary
    grasp of your personality.
[11:52] ---
    The hands and weapon are a mirror
    which reflects who a warrior is.
[11:57] ---
    You present an extremely favorable impression.
[12:01] ---
    Now, please allow me to ask you a question.
[12:03] ---
    Why do you want to become stronger?
[12:06] ---
    Huh?
[12:07] ---
    A moment ago,
    you said you wanted me to train you.
[12:10] ---
    While I credit you as being trustworthy,
[12:14] ---
    I would like to know
    the reason why you seek more power.
[12:18] ---
    Well...
[12:35] ---
    Because I am a man.
[12:38] ---
    Ho...
[12:39] ---
    Based on your answer, I have decided
    what kind of training to give you.
[12:43] ---
    Thank you very--
[12:45] ---
    However, forgive me for saying so,
    but in my view, you have no talent.
[12:50] ---
    Let me be frank.
[12:53] ---
    You might die from this.
[12:57] ---
    It depends upon your heart.
    If there is someone precious to you,
[13:03] ---
    you should be fine.
[13:06] ---
    I am ready. Please proceed.
[13:10] ---
    You are confident you will not die, then?
[13:15] ---
    Very well.
[13:17] ---
    All right, I will train you here.
[13:20] ---
    What, right here?
[13:22] ---
    Yes. Please stand ready with your weapon.
[13:24] ---
    Right!
[13:33] ---
    Okay, here we go. Please hold fast to your wits.
[14:00] ---
    Is this the extent of your manhood?
[14:04] ---
    I am still merely getting ready.
[14:09] ---
    Now then, die, if you please!
[14:39] ---
    Congratulations. How does it feel
    to overcome the fear of death?
[14:45] ---
    You did well to avoid dying of shock.
    That sometimes happens--
[14:50] ---
    A person is prepared to die, and as a result,
[14:52] ---
    they go and abandon their hold on life.
[14:56] ---
    F-Forgive me for asking,
    but who are you? What exactly do you...?
[15:03] ---
    I am nothing more than an old man
    who simply knows how to handle himself.
[15:07] ---
    For now, anyway.
[15:11] ---
    Now, once again...
[15:12] ---
    Hold on a minute!
[15:16] ---
    An acquaintance of yours?
[15:18] ---
    No.
[15:20] ---
    So then, he is not
    an acquaintance of yours, either?
[15:28] ---
    First off, my name is Brain Unglaus.
[15:34] ---
    Please allow me to again apologize
    for interrupting you two.
[15:38] ---
    Your name--I recognize it as that of a warrior
[15:41] ---
    who once fought
    the royal head warrior toe-to-toe.
[15:44] ---
    So then, what can I do for you?
[15:48] ---
    Wh-What is it?
[15:52] ---
    How... How could you remain standing
    with death so close at hand?
[15:57] ---
    I'd like to know. That went beyond
    what a normal man could withstand.
[16:03] ---
    That was something not even I--
    pardon, someone like me, could bear.
[16:08] ---
    Nonetheless, that wasn't true of you.
    You held your own.
[16:12] ---
    How did you do something that great?
[16:16] ---
    I am not sure.
[16:18] ---
    However, it may be because
    I was thinking about my mistress.
[16:23] ---
    Mistress?
[16:24] ---
    Yes, I was thinking about
    the lady whose service I am in,
[16:28] ---
    and got through it.
[16:29] ---
    That's how...?
[16:31] ---
    Lord Unglaus...
[16:34] ---
    He had enough loyalty
    to be able to overcome his fear.
[16:38] ---
    People can muster
    an unbelievable amount of power,
[16:41] ---
    if it is for someone who is important to them.
[16:44] ---
    I believe that that is the strength of a person.
[16:49] ---
    If there is something else
    that you refuse to concede,
[16:52] ---
    then you can demonstrate a power
    beyond what you perceive as yourself.
[16:57] ---
    The only ones I've had, I've already forsaken.
[17:00] ---
    That is all right!
[17:01] ---
    I could do it, and I have no talent.
[17:04] ---
    Knowing you, Lord Unglaus,
    you definitely can, too!
[17:08] ---
    You are both kind and strong. Thanks.
[17:13] ---
    I really have been...
[17:16] ---
    Lord Unglaus...
[17:18] ---
    You can drop the "Lord" business.
[17:20] ---
    I'm nobody that a person
    such as yourself needs to pay respect to.
[17:24] ---
    Then it would please me
    for you to call me Sebas.
[17:27] ---
    Now then, Unglaus, would you and Climb
    both mind leaving here at once?
[17:34] ---
    It appears I have some visitors.
[17:42] ---
    Over there, as well.
[17:48] ---
    Who are they?
[17:51] ---
    Those are poisoned.
    Climb, watch yourself. They're assassins.
[17:57] ---
    Perhaps I will be in the way,
    but I would like to fight, too.
[18:02] ---
    As one who preserves the peace in the capital,
[18:04] ---
    it is only right that I defend its citizens.
[18:06] ---
    In that case, I will help you, too.
[18:09] ---
    Well then, I will take on
    those three over there,
[18:13] ---
    so can I ask you two to take on this pair?
[18:16] ---
    --Yes!
    --Yes!
[18:18] ---
    Now then, I am afraid that
    I will be confronting all of you.
[18:26] ---
    Would you mind not going after
    these gentleman on the side?
[18:30] ---
    That was amazing.
[18:31] ---
    Yeah. If anyone claimed Lord Sebas
    was the mightiest man in the kingdom,
[18:35] ---
    I'd agree with them.
[18:37] ---
    Even stronger than Lord Stronoff?
[18:39] ---
    We wouldn't stand a chance against him
    if we took him on together. Now,
[18:44] ---
    here they come. I'll take the one on the left;
[18:46] ---
    you have the one on the right.
[18:50] ---
    Now then,
[18:51] ---
    I hate to ask,
[18:52] ---
    but would you be the fall guy
    who recoups my time spent out of practice?
[18:55] ---
    Oh, so that is what the story is...
[19:01] ---
    You were out of practice.
[19:07] ---
    Then this might be just the thing.
[19:10] ---
    These opponents are perfect
    for shaking the rust off.
[19:19] ---
    Don't get in too deep
    until you've determined his reach.
[19:21] ---
    Right!
[19:22] ---
    He seems like a fairly benevolent gentleman.
[19:43] ---
    Fright is an important emotion.
    However, you cannot be bound by it.
[19:48] ---
    If your physical abilities are not
    up to the task, prevail with your heart.
[19:52] ---
    There are times when
    the mind outperforms the body.
[19:57] ---
    If by chance, I die here...
    please tell Princess Renner...
[20:01] ---
    ...please tell Her Highness that I fought well.
[20:07] ---
    Martial Art!
[20:08] ---
    Slash!
[20:17] ---
    Well done.
[20:19] ---
    Nice going, Climb.
[20:26] ---
    Seeing as how they
    followed me from the mansion,
[20:28] ---
    I would venture that these are Succulent's men.
[20:36] ---
    What did you do to him?
[20:39] ---
    It is a skill called "Palm of the Puppeteer."
    It appears to be working.
[20:45] ---
    Now then, to begin interrogating him.
[20:49] ---
    Eight Fingers is a relatively large
    criminal society within the kingdom, right?
[20:53] ---
    Yes it is.
[20:54] ---
    I have heard the name Succulent.
[20:57] ---
    Something about him being one of
    the adamantite class Six Arms.
[21:02] ---
    So then, Lord Sebas,
    what are you going to do now?
[21:06] ---
    I have made up my mind.
    The first thing I will do
[21:08] ---
    is go and bring down the place
    that is the source of this trouble.
[21:12] ---
    He says that Succulent will be there, as well.
[21:16] ---
    Best to stamp out any sparks straight away.
[21:18] ---
    Can I ask you two to carry
    this bunch to a guardhouse?
[21:22] ---
    Just a moment, please!
    Would it be all right if I helped you?
[21:26] ---
    Me, too, please!
[21:28] ---
    While I believe that
    Unglaus would fare just fine,
[21:31] ---
    you might find yourself in a bit of peril.
[21:34] ---
    Looking the other way,
    just because of the danger,
[21:37] ---
    would prove that I am a man
    unfit to serve my mistress.
[21:41] ---
    Then you have made your resolve?
[21:47] ---
    Very well. Then there is
    nothing more to be said.
[21:51] ---
    All right, both of you, please assist me.
[21:54] ---
