**[00:01] ---**
The entrance to the brothel is inside this door.
**[00:04] ---**
The actual establishment
extends out underground,
**[00:07] ---**
and according to the assassin,
there appears to be another entrance
**[00:10] ---**
in that building over there.
**[00:12] ---**
Then how about Climb and I attack there,
**[00:15] ---**
and you go in through here, Lord Sebas?
**[00:19] ---**
We can have him contain the entrance,
while I search through the inside.
**[00:23] ---**
Very well.
**[00:24] ---**
I have no objections, Lord Unglaus.
**[00:27] ---**
I wish you'd start calling me Brain.
**[00:30] ---**
Lord Sebas, I would be pleased
if you would call me that, too.
**[00:33] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[00:35] ---**
All right, let's go.
**[00:36] ---**
--Right.
--Right.
**[00:38] ---**
One other thing--
**[00:40] ---**
I will take as many prisoners as I can,
**[00:42] ---**
but if anyone offers resistance,
I will kill them without remorse.
**[00:45] ---**
You have no problem with that, yes?
**[00:47] ---**
Since our numbers are so few,
I think it is unavoidable to some extent.
**[00:52] ---**
But if anyone who might be
one of Eight Fingers' captains is here,
**[00:56] ---**
can I ask that you please apprehend them?
**[00:59] ---**
I am not a hardened killer.
**[01:02] ---**
It is not as though I am here
to kill everyone in sight, so rest easy.
**[01:11] ---**
Picking locks is not one of my specialties.
**[01:33] ---**
Wh-What the...?!
**[01:34] ---**
Hey, what was that sound?
**[01:39] ---**
It was rusted, so I had to
force it open just a bit.
**[03:27] ---**
There's a secret door right there.
**[03:29] ---**
Wow, that's a pretty handy item.
**[03:32] ---**
Yes. A certain lady gave me these
for such a time as this.
**[03:36] ---**
It is dangerous to go searching
around without a thief, after all.
**[03:44] ---**
Sure enough, it was booby-trapped.
**[03:47] ---**
A poison arrow.
**[03:49] ---**
So, what now? I'd like to have you
watch the entrance.
**[03:53] ---**
Would you wait here?
**[03:54] ---**
I'm not very good at indoor combat.
**[03:57] ---**
If possible, I'd rather keep to open areas,
where it's easier to fight.
**[04:00] ---**
Okay, you want to go together?
**[04:03] ---**
Yes.
**[04:13] ---**
Hey, what's the matter?
You through already? Eh?!
**[04:23] ---**
Now that I think about it, I liked
the voice of that woman who ran away.
**[04:35] ---**
Wha--?!
**[04:36] ---**
You like hitting, do you?
**[04:39] ---**
Y-You!
**[04:49] ---**
You hink you can ged away wi--
**[04:55] ---**
Sdob dat!
**[04:57] ---**
Is this wrong?
**[04:59] ---**
Ob course id is! Who do you hink I ab?!
**[05:03] ---**
A mere fool.
**[05:06] ---**
For pity's sake, isn't this an awful sight?
**[05:11] ---**
You hool--
**[05:14] ---**
Domebody! Id anybody dere?!
**[05:19] ---**
Why idn'd anybody cobing oud?
**[05:21] ---**
Because they are dead,
or they are unconscious.
**[05:26] ---**
Ib-b-boddible!
**[05:29] ---**
Now then, I feel no need to spare your life.
**[05:33] ---**
You are going to die here.
**[05:36] ---**
W-W-Waid! Why are you doing dis?!
**[05:39] ---**
You don't know,
even in light of all you've done?
**[05:46] ---**
I see.
**[05:47] ---**
I-I-I can gibe you boney, jusd don'd kill be!
**[05:51] ---**
This is what it means to be unworthy of life!
**[05:57] ---**
Stay there and die.
**[06:21] ---**
It's a bit noisy. Let's open it.
**[06:29] ---**
Do you want to wait here?
**[06:31] ---**
Yes.
**[06:32] ---**
Okay, I'm going to go look around inside
and be back right away.
**[06:35] ---**
Don't get yourself killed, Climb.
**[06:37] ---**
I appreciate it, Lord Ung--
**[06:40] ---**
Lord Brain, you be careful, too.
**[06:55] ---**
It's empty?
**[07:02] ---**
Oh, well, I guess.
**[07:06] ---**
And over here...
**[07:09] ---**
What are these? Spare uniforms?
**[07:18] ---**
And here we deliberately came
via the hidden passageway,
**[07:21] ---**
since the alarm alerted us to intruders.
**[07:25] ---**
Succulent, it doesn't do
any good mentioning that now.
**[07:29] ---**
Six Arms...
**[07:31] ---**
Oh, I know this boy.
**[07:34] ---**
He's the underling of that female
I hate more than anyone in the world!
**[07:37] ---**
You mean the princess?
**[07:40] ---**
I'd like to take the boy
back with us, too. What do you say?
**[07:44] ---**
I'll have to charge
a separate fee, if you please.
**[07:47] ---**
Okay.
**[07:51] ---**
Please help me!
**[07:54] ---**
Cocco Doll, it may prove a bit
difficult to take him back with us.
**[07:59] ---**
What do you mean?!
You're one of the Six Arms, right?
**[08:02] ---**
You're not worthy
of the name "Illusion Demon."
**[08:04] ---**
Illusion Demon?
**[08:06] ---**
I'll have to deal with this
before any reinforcements show up.
**[08:09] ---**
Nonetheless, I will try as best I can,
**[08:12] ---**
but please don't forget that
once you get clean away, we will prevail.
**[08:18] ---**
I'm going to guard this door with my life!
**[08:21] ---**
As long as nothing happens to me,
you guys aren't getting away!
**[08:25] ---**
We'll find out soon enough
whether that's possible.
**[08:57] ---**
--What?
--Sorry about that.
**[09:00] ---**
I'm going to kill the kid, right here.
**[09:03] ---**
You can't! He will make for
a fine card to play against that girl!
**[09:07] ---**
We've been fed the wrong impression.
**[09:10] ---**
If he had friends
on the other side of that door,
**[09:12] ---**
we would have been surrounded.
**[09:14] ---**
Then...
**[09:15] ---**
I am the only escort you have.
For us to get away safely...
**[09:22] ---**
...I have to kill him, right now!
**[09:28] ---**
Is that a Martial Art? A defensive battle
won't work here. Which means...
**[09:37] ---**
So that's it!
**[09:39] ---**
Hmm?
**[09:40] ---**
Your right arm itself is an illusion!
**[09:42] ---**
Your actual arm and sword
have been turned invisible!
**[09:46] ---**
That's right.
**[09:48] ---**
This is nothing more than magic
that makes part of me invisible
**[09:50] ---**
combined with magic that creates an illusion.
**[09:53] ---**
My character classes
are both illusionist and fencer.
**[09:57] ---**
It's not a very interesting trick
if you know how it's done, is it?
**[10:00] ---**
Feel free to laugh.
**[10:02] ---**
Seeing as how I divided my abilities,
**[10:05] ---**
I may be considered
lower than you as a warrior, per se.
**[10:09] ---**
However, are you able
to discriminate illusion from reality?
**[10:15] ---**
Multiple Vision.
**[10:20] ---**
Martial Art! Ability Boost!
Mental Enhancement!
**[10:28] ---**
Scintillating Scotoma.
**[10:34] ---**
Wrong one!
**[10:35] ---**
Martial Art! Evasion!
**[10:44] ---**
This one!
**[10:48] ---**
One out of two!
**[10:57] ---**
I guess... I can't say I've won yet.
But if I can apprehend Succulent...
**[11:06] ---**
Unfortunately for you,
that's not going to happen.
**[11:11] ---**
Fox Sleep. It's an illusion spell
that activates after being injured.
**[11:16] ---**
It hurt, too.
**[11:18] ---**
I'm afraid we're out of time,
so I'm going to finish the job now.
**[11:23] ---**
Listen, are you sure
we can't take him back with us?
**[11:26] ---**
Give me a break.
**[11:28] ---**
There's a good chance that this kid's pals
are on the other side of this door.
**[11:32] ---**
Please, let it go.
**[11:41] ---**
I can't... die yet... Not until...
**[11:47] ---**
I repay the debt... I owe Princess Renner...
**[11:56] ---**
I-Impossible!
**[11:58] ---**
That should have been a mortal wound!
**[12:01] ---**
How can you get back up?!
**[12:04] ---**
Why won't you die?!
**[12:08] ---**
Wh-What is this?!
**[12:17] ---**
Damn it, you use your feet, too?!
**[12:27] ---**
One last struggle, was it?
**[12:30] ---**
You sure gave me a scare.
**[12:31] ---**
Why don't you stop right there?
**[12:40] ---**
Right down to the wire, huh?
**[12:42] ---**
What are you waiting for?
Hurry up and kill that guy!
**[12:45] ---**
If I tried that, he would rush me
and cut me down with a single strike.
**[12:51] ---**
Climb, are you all right?
Do you have any items that heal wounds?
**[12:56] ---**
Yes... I do...
**[12:58] ---**
Okay.
**[13:02] ---**
From here on, you're facing *me*.
**[13:04] ---**
I will exact retribution for him.
**[13:07] ---**
May I ask your name?
**[13:10] ---**
Brain Unglaus.
**[13:13] ---**
What? You're him?!
**[13:15] ---**
No way! It's really him?!
**[13:17] ---**
The old me might have felt pleased by the fact
**[13:21] ---**
that most of the people
I've met today already knew who I was,
**[13:25] ---**
but right now, it's a bit more complicated.
**[13:28] ---**
Hey, Unglaus,
why don't we call off the fighting?
**[13:32] ---**
You are a lot like we are.
Power... is what you desire, right?
**[13:37] ---**
I can see it in your eyes.
**[13:39] ---**
So why don't you join us?
Eight Fingers is the best organization
**[13:43] ---**
for those who possess power.
**[13:46] ---**
You can obtain powerful magic items!
**[13:49] ---**
High-value weapons and protective gear, too!
**[13:51] ---**
What tripe.
**[13:54] ---**
Is that all you people are?
**[13:56] ---**
What?!
**[13:57] ---**
I'm putting you on notice.
**[13:59] ---**
Our strength does not amount to much.
**[14:03] ---**
Also, there's one thing I've learned--
**[14:06] ---**
Strength on behalf of someone else
surpasses individual strength.
**[14:10] ---**
Maybe that's not much, but even so,
it's something I've realized.
**[14:17] ---**
What a shame, Unglaus.
Imagine, me having to kill a gifted warrior
**[14:23] ---**
who once fought evenly matched
against even Stronoff!
**[14:25] ---**
You think you--you, who wield your sword
only for yourself--can do that?
**[14:31] ---**
Yeah, I can kill you! I can kill you easily!
**[14:35] ---**
I'll kill you, then I'll kill
the kid slumped over, there!
**[14:39] ---**
Please be careful.
Succulent uses illusion techniques.
**[14:42] ---**
What you see is not necessarily real.
**[14:45] ---**
You don't say. That does indeed
make him a tricky opponent...
**[14:54] ---**
...but not a problem.
**[14:56] ---**
One strike.
**[14:58] ---**
What?!
**[14:59] ---**
I said I would end this
with one strike, Succulent.
**[15:04] ---**
Then go ahead and try!
**[15:21] ---**
My Field can detect even invisible beings.
**[15:25] ---**
You might have been planning to kill Climb,
then claim I couldn't protect him,
**[15:31] ---**
but you tried it with the wrong opponent.
**[15:33] ---**
See? One strike.
**[15:37] ---**
Nicely done!
**[15:38] ---**
Nicely done.
**[15:43] ---**
Wh-When did you get here?
**[15:45] ---**
Just this moment.
**[15:47] ---**
Y-You did?
**[15:50] ---**
I didn't detect him with my Field.
**[15:54] ---**
Who exactly is this man, anyway?
**[16:05] ---**
The women being held prisoner
have been taken into protective custody.
**[16:08] ---**
Thank you most sincerely!
**[16:11] ---**
I must remain here briefly,
for the after-incident report.
**[16:14] ---**
What about you two?
**[16:15] ---**
Oh, I think it's time I took off.
**[16:18] ---**
Then I shall take my leave, as well.
**[16:28] ---**
Welcome back, Lord Sebas.
**[16:32] ---**
Lord Sebas,
**[16:34] ---**
Lord Ains is waiting for you inside.
**[16:48] ---**
Is that you, Climb? Please come in.
**[16:56] ---**
Forgive me for being gone so long.
**[17:00] ---**
I was worried.
**[17:03] ---**
I really was worried, you know.
**[17:06] ---**
So, tell me exactly what happened.
**[17:12] ---**
I see.
**[17:14] ---**
Tomorrow, or the day
after tomorrow at the latest,
**[17:17] ---**
we will be staging attacks
on seven Eight Fingers facilities.
**[17:21] ---**
With the raid on the brothel today,
**[17:23] ---**
one can predict that as more time passes,
their security will grow tighter.
**[17:27] ---**
I'm terribly sorry.
This is all because I went off on my own.
**[17:31] ---**
No, please don't let it bother you.
**[17:33] ---**
We should think of it
as having made our resolve.
**[17:36] ---**
We arrested Succulent, one of the Six Arms,
**[17:38] ---**
as well as Cocco Doll,
head of their slave trade division.
**[17:42] ---**
This will be enough to shake
the very pillars of their organization.
**[17:46] ---**
Which is all the more reason why
I want to strike another blow to them.
**[17:52] ---**
Another blow, before they
leave the kingdom with any information.
**[17:58] ---**
As you wish!
**[18:00] ---**
I believe tomorrow will be a hectic day.
Please watch yourself.
**[18:06] ---**
Right!
**[18:10] ---**
Ho, Climb and that Six Arms man?
**[18:13] ---**
Yeah. He had been struck a fatal blow,
**[18:17] ---**
but it looked like he had
Succulent cornered pretty well.
**[18:20] ---**
Did he?
**[18:24] ---**
It's true, he has no talent with the sword.
**[18:27] ---**
So much so that when I first saw him,
**[18:30] ---**
I pegged him as nothing more
than a kid vainly struggling for power.
**[18:33] ---**
But then, he faced that terror--
**[18:36] ---**
the kind of bloodlust that rivaled
that monster I ran away from,
**[18:39] ---**
and withstood it.
**[18:41] ---**
In that regard, the boy is better than me.
**[18:45] ---**
How unbelievable is that?
**[18:47] ---**
Nope, the world is a big place.
**[18:51] ---**
The person that gave Climb
this training is one thing,
**[18:54] ---**
but this monster you say
you ran into has my attention.
**[18:58] ---**
Her name is Shalltear Bloodfallen.
**[19:01] ---**
I think she's most likely a vampire.
**[19:03] ---**
She stopped the technique I came up with,
the one I devised to defeat you,
**[19:07] ---**
with just one hand.
**[19:09] ---**
I see.
**[19:11] ---**
Stronoff, if you ever see her,
do not challenge her to battle.
**[19:15] ---**
I appreciate the warning. But if this
"Shallty" monster is after the king,
**[19:21] ---**
then I will fight her,
even at the cost of my own life.
**[19:25] ---**
That's "Shalltear." Shalltear Bloodfallen.
**[19:33] ---**
Hey, don't get any on the food.
**[19:35] ---**
It might take on the wine's flavor,
and taste pretty good.
**[19:39] ---**
My sense of taste is shot, so I wouldn't care.
**[19:43] ---**
Don't tell me yours is, too, Unglaus.
**[19:45] ---**
It's Brain.
**[19:47] ---**
Call me Brain.
**[19:49] ---**
Okay, in that case, I'm Gazef.
**[19:53] ---**
Got it, Gazef.
**[20:02] ---**
All right,
**[20:03] ---**
good night to you.
**[20:05] ---**
Good night.
**[20:14] ---**
Now then, the maid on duty tonight is...
**[20:17] ---**
Ah yes, it's *her*.
**[20:21] ---**
The one who looks like she's made fun of Climb.
**[20:26] ---**
Let's see, which face was the right one, again?
**[20:33] ---**
This is the smile I wear
when receiving others as a princess.
**[20:45] ---**
This one is best, isn't it?
**[20:56] ---**
You rang for me?
**[20:58] ---**
I have a request.
Can you prepare a bath for me?
**[21:02] ---**
Very good, Princess Renner.
**[21:06] ---**
Is something the matter?
**[21:08] ---**
It's amazing! Climb just performed
an incredible feat!
**[21:12] ---**
Then congratulations are in order.
**[21:15] ---**
You know what?
He put down these terribly bad men!
**[21:18] ---**
Then he freed some others
who had been held captive.
**[21:21] ---**
--They're at a guardhouse somewhere now.
--I'll kill her. I'll kill her, too.
**[21:24] ---**
--Is that right?
--If anyone makes fun of my Climb...
**[21:32] ---**
...I'll kill them.
**[22:33] ---**
I'll have to apologize to Cocco Doll, I guess.
**[22:37] ---**
Despite letting him have Succulent,
one of the Six Arms,
**[22:41] ---**
this place still fell as easily as it did.
**[22:45] ---**
So then, Boss, now that Succulent
has been caught, do we kill him?
**[22:49] ---**
The man does have his uses.
**[22:52] ---**
Reach out to the count and
ask to have him released within the day.
**[22:56] ---**
So what do we do? Step back?
**[22:59] ---**
I doubt that there's enough benefit involved
**[23:01] ---**
to justify the losses we'd take
in going up against this.
**[23:03] ---**
Don't be ridiculous. We have to make
an example of those who hit the brothel,
**[23:08] ---**
or our reputation will be diminished.
**[23:11] ---**
Don't even consider losses at this point.
**[23:14] ---**
Davernoch, the Undead King...
**[23:16] ---**
Peshurian, of the Spatial Slash...
**[23:19] ---**
Edström, of the Dancing Scimitar...
**[23:22] ---**
Malmvist, of the Thousand Kills...
**[23:25] ---**
As well as myself, Zero, the Battle Demon...
**[23:29] ---**
We'll show whoever attacked us a hell on earth!
**[23:34] ---**
We'll more than make them regret
doing anything this foolish!
**[23:38] ---**
