[00:01] Anubis
    The first requirement for queenship,
    commanding a holy beast,
[00:07] Anubis
    has been achieved with flying colors.
[00:09] Anubis
    Lady Sariphi may attempt the next task at—
[00:12] Leonhart
    Sariphi only just finished your ordeal.
[00:16] Leonhart
    There is no need to rush her.
[00:19] Anubis
    If you say so, sire.
[00:21] Anubis
    I merely thought that Lady Sariphi would
    wish to wed you as soon as possible.
[00:27] Leonhart
    More importantly, Anubis, what have you
    learned about the intruders in my palace?
[00:33] Anubis
    Justice Set is putting them
    to the question as we speak.
[00:38] Anubis
    Such petty criminals could not
    have entered without inside help.
[00:45] Anubis
    We cannot overlook any
    threat to Your Majesty.
[00:50] Set
    Forgive me for interrupting this council,
    but I have a report on that matter.
[00:55] Anubis
    What is it, Set?
[00:56] Set
    I put the scoundrels to the question,
    as His Majesty commanded,
[01:01] Set
    but both of them have just
    taken their own lives.
[01:06] Anubis
    This is unacceptable, Set!
[01:09] Set
    My most humble apologies.
[01:11] Set
    But please, have no fear.
[01:13] Set
    I found no indication of any
    mastermind behind their crimes.
[01:17] Set
    We may safely assume that they
    snuck in to burgle the palace.
[01:22] Set
    They claimed—truly, I believe—to have
    fired impulsively upon seeing a human.
[01:30] Set
    Regrettably, the people hold humans
    to be the most abominable of creatures.
[01:35] Set
    Nevertheless, the lady is our future queen.
[01:38] Set
    So, as a loyal servant of the royal family,
[01:41] Set
    I may have been too harsh in my questioning
    of such treasonous individuals.
[01:47] Leonhart
    Remember this:
[01:49] Leonhart
    I will not condone rash killing,
    even of heinous criminals.
[01:55] Leonhart
    Make your sentences worse than death,
[01:58] Leonhart
    so that offenders never think
    of defying me a second time.
[02:03] Set
    Yes, sire.
SIGN    A Boy and the King of Beasts
[03:43] Gatekeeper B
    Hey! We're on duty!
[03:45] Gatekeeper A
    Sorry. I couldn't help it.
[03:47] Gatekeeper B
    Damn it. If any more scoundrels get in,
[03:52] Gatekeeper B
    the watch captain's demotion to the border
    will look lenient by comparison.
[03:55] Gatekeeper B
    So look sharp!
[03:57] Gatekeeper A
    I know, I know.
[03:58] Gatekeeper A
    We gatekeepers bar the way
    into the royal... palace...
[04:07] Ilya
    Bring out your king.
    I have business with him.
[04:15] Amit
    I made these to celebrate Lady Sariphi
    overcoming her first ordeal.
[04:21] Sariphi
    So crispy and flaky!
[04:23] Clops
    They're delicious!
[04:24] Cy
    Delicious!
[04:26] Amit
    I'm so glad you like them.
[04:29] Sariphi
    I'd love to bake something, too.
    For the king.
[04:32] Amit
    Oh!
[04:34] Amit
    Lady Sariphi worked herself ragged so
    that she can become queen, didn't she?
[04:39] Clops
    That she did!
[04:41] Amit
    Th-Then... that terrifying king is the
    gentleman she has feelings for?!
[04:46] Clops
    You only just figured that out?
[04:52] Amit
    Goodness, what a commotion.
[04:56] Anubis
    Please be careful, sire.
[04:58] Anubis
    This man just fought the whole palace watch,
[05:02] Anubis
    and he remains most unruly.
[05:06] Anubis
    In any case, this is an
    unprecedented occurrence.
[05:09] Anubis
    Not only did he violate the treaty
    of mutual noninterference,
[05:13] Anubis
    but he assaulted the palace alone and
    threatened violence to Your Majesty.
[05:18] Anubis
    He's like an animal.
[05:23] Ilya
    So you're the king of beasts?
[05:25] Ilya
    Did you kill Sariphi?!
[05:29] Sariphi
    Your Majesty!
[05:31] Sariphi
    I heard that someone broke into the palace.
[05:33] Sariphi
    May I have a word with—
[05:38] Sariphi
    Ilya?
[05:40] Ilya
    Sariphi...
[05:42] Ilya
    Sariphi, is that you?!
[05:44] Sariphi
    Ilya, what are you doing here?!
[05:46] Anubis
    Do you know this person, Lady Sariphi?
[05:49] Sariphi
    Yes! Ilya is my...
[05:52] Ilya
    Oh, okay.
[05:54] Ilya
    You're still... alive.
[06:00] Sariphi
    Ilya...
[06:04] Sariphi
    Please!
[06:06] Sariphi
    Please pardon Ilya.
[06:08] Speaker B
    It wouldn't do, sire!
[06:10] Speaker B
    Not even beasts may trespass
    in the royal palace!
[06:14] Speaker B
    Custom demands that he be severely punished!
[06:18] Sariphi
    In that case,
[06:19] Sariphi
    I'll accept his punishment instead.
[06:22] Sariphi
    Punish me.
[06:24] Leonhart
    Anubis.
[06:25] Anubis
    Sire!
[06:26] Leonhart
    What did that man say when
    he appeared before my gates?
[06:30] Anubis
    According to the gatekeepers,
[06:32] Anubis
    he said, "Bring out your king.
    I have business with him."
[06:37] Sariphi
    Sire?
[06:39] Leonhart
    In other words, that man is my guest.
[06:42] Leonhart
    He merely didn't know to ring the doorbell.
[06:47] Speaker B
    Y-You cannot mean...
[06:50] Leonhart
    Do you object to my ruling?
[06:54] Sariphi
    Thank you, sire.
[06:57] Sariphi
    Sire?
[06:59] Leonhart
    Why would you go to such
    lengths to save him?
[07:03] Leonhart
    What is that man to you?
[07:08] Sariphi
    We knew each other as kids.
[07:10] Sariphi
    When he was little, evil beasts
    attacked his hometown.
[07:15] Sariphi
    So he went traveling, training
    under the warrior who saved him.
[07:20] Sariphi
    Then, one day...
[07:22] (Flashback) Sariphi
    Ow!
[07:27] (Flashback) Ilya
    What are you looking at?
[07:29] (Flashback) Ilya
    You're always sneaking around.
[07:34] (Flashback) Ilya
    Hey, that hurt!
[07:41] (Flashback) Ilya
    Medicinal herbs?
[07:42] (Flashback) Sariphi
    Because... you're always hurt.
[07:47] (Flashback) Ilya
    This is nothing.
[07:49] (Flashback) Ilya
    You can't train without taking a few bumps.
[07:52] (Flashback) Sariphi
    Train for what?
[07:54] (Flashback) Ilya
    To become a big, strong man
    who can beat anyone.
[07:58] (Flashback) Ilya
    So if you're ever in trouble,
    just come to me.
[08:03] (Flashback) Ilya
    I'll keep you safe, even from the beasts.
[08:10] (Flashback) Ilya
    Sariphi! I brought you a neat souvenir!
[08:14] Sariphi
    Ilya didn't know I was
    going to be a sacrifice,
[08:18] Sariphi
    so he must have thought
    that he failed to protect me.
[08:25] Sariphi
    Since it's my fault he took this risk,
[08:30] Sariphi
    I felt I had to help him.
[08:32] Leonhart
    Is that really all?
[08:37] Sariphi
    What do you mean?
[08:41] Leonhart
    If you don't know, it doesn't matter.
[08:43] Leonhart
    Go see him at once.
[08:46] Sariphi
    Oh, of course!
[08:50] Sariphi
    Thank you, sire!
[08:58] Leonhart
    How petty I am.
[09:03] Anubis
    This is a most exceptional circumstance.
[09:07] Anubis
    His Majesty will release you
    under one condition:
[09:10] Anubis
    that you never set foot in his realm again.
[09:14] Anubis
    Be grateful for his royal magnanimity.
[09:19] Soldier A
    Lord Chancellor!
[09:21] Soldier B
    How dare you, scoundrel?!
[09:22] Ilya
    Do you ever shut up?
[09:24] Ilya
    You oughta be thanking Sariphi.
[09:26] Ilya
    If anything had happened to her,
    I'd have lopped off all your heads by now.
[09:33] Sariphi
    Ilya!
[09:34] Ilya
    Sariphi.
[09:35] Sariphi
    Thank goodness they let you out.
[09:38] Sariphi
    Huh?
[09:39] Sariphi
    W-Wait! What are you doing, Ilya?
[09:42] Ilya
    Huh? What does it look like?
[09:44] Ilya
    I'm bringing you home.
[09:47] Ilya
    If you're all right, they must not
    need you as a sacrifice.
[09:51] Ilya
    So they've got no right to complain.
[09:54] Clops
    Hold it right there!
[09:56] Clops
    Sariphi is living here with us.
[10:00] Clops
    You can't take her away!
[10:02] Cy
    Can't!
[10:08] Sariphi
    Cy! Clops!
[10:10] Ilya
    Let's go.
[10:16] Sariphi
    Sire!
[10:17] Ilya
    You!
[10:18] Leonhart
    I can't have you walking off with this girl.
[10:21] Leonhart
    She is to be my queen.
[10:28] Leonhart
    I'll overlook your actions just this once.
[10:31] Leonhart
    Leave while you still live.
[10:34] Leonhart
    Guards! Take him away!
[10:37] Soldier
    At once, sire!
[10:38] Ilya
    Wait!
[10:42] Ilya
    You'll pay.
[10:44] Ilya
    I swear, I'll make you...
[10:50] Sariphi
    Ilya!
[10:52] Sariphi
    Ilya!
[10:54] Sariphi
    Ilya!
[11:02] Anubis
    I believe that he is merely fatigued.
[11:05] Sariphi
    Thank goodness.
[11:06] Anubis
    That said, Lady Sariphi must have concerns
    about sending him home in this state.
[11:12] Anubis
    Would you consider nursing him here
    overnight before expelling him?
[11:19] Sariphi
    What? Can we really, Mr. Chancellor?
[11:21] Anubis
    Only if His Majesty approves, of course.
[11:27] Leonhart
    I don't object. Let it be so.
[11:30] Sariphi
    Thank you, sire!
[11:32] Anubis
    Then I shall make the necessary
    arrangements at once.
[11:37] Sariphi
    Ilya, you really should eat something.
[11:41] Ilya
    I don't need food.
[11:42] Sariphi
    But you must be hungry.
[11:44] Ilya
    I'm not.
[11:53] Sariphi
    See? Listen to your tummy growl!
[11:56] Sariphi
    You haven't changed, Ilya.
[12:00] Sariphi
    Always trying to act tough.
[12:02] (Flashback) Ilya
    It's training.
[12:04] Sariphi
    This really takes me back.
    I never thought I'd see you again, Ilya.
[12:10] Sariphi
    Thank you for coming all this way for me.
[12:15] Ilya
    It's fine. I'd do anything for you.
[12:20] Ilya
    Anyway, Sariphi, is what he said true?
[12:24] Ilya
    That nonsense about you
    marrying the king of beasts?
[12:27] Sariphi
    Oh... Yes, actually.
[12:30] Ilya
    So that's it.
[12:32] Ilya
    But don't worry. I promise
    I'll get you out of here.
[12:37] Sariphi
    What?
[12:39] Ilya
    Escaping this place with you
    will be no problem for me.
[12:43] Sariphi
    Wait a second.
[12:44] Ilya
    Don't worry about finding a place to live.
[12:47] Ilya
    I'm in good with plenty of villages.
[12:50] Ilya
    So...
[12:51] Ilya
    Come live with me.
[12:56] Sariphi
    Ilya, I...
[12:57] Amit
    Excuse me.
[13:00] Sariphi
    Amit!
[13:01] Amit
    Lady Sariphi told me about you.
[13:04] Amit
    Um... How do you feel?
[13:07] Amit
    I think desserts are the
    best thing for exhaustion,
[13:11] Amit
    so I baked muffins with some
    nuts I picked this morning.
[13:15] Amit
    Please enjoy them together...
[13:21] Ilya
    Get out. Now.
[13:24] Ilya
    Monster.
[13:28] Amit
    I... I beg your pardon!
[13:31] Sariphi
    Amit!
[13:34] Sariphi
    What's wrong with you, Ilya?!
[13:36] Sariphi
    Amit went out of her way to—
[13:40] Ilya
    No, what's wrong with you?
[13:42] Ilya
    Why are you acting buddy-buddy with beasts?
[13:46] Ilya
    Don't tell me you think their king
    will actually keep you alive?
[13:52] Sariphi
    What do you mean?
[13:54] Ilya
    He's lying about making you his queen.
[13:57] Ilya
    Beasts would never treat humans as equals.
[14:01] Ilya
    You're no more than an exotic pet to him.
[14:06] Ilya
    When he gets bored of you,
    he'll toss you out like trash.
[14:11] Ilya
    They only think of us as either prey or toys.
[14:19] Sariphi
    I know that beasts attacked your hometown.
[14:23] Sariphi
    I can't tell him not to
    hold a grudge, but still...
[14:28] Sariphi
    But at least try to understand one thing.
[14:31] Sariphi
    The king isn't like that.
[14:35] Sariphi
    Take the way he treated you.
[14:37] Sariphi
    Favoring a human might harm his position,
[14:42] Sariphi
    but he still made an exception.
[14:45] Sariphi
    He sacrifices his health and peace of mind.
[14:50] Sariphi
    He stood up for me the same way.
[14:54] Sariphi
    I believe in him, and I'm going to
    spend the rest of my life with him.
[15:02] Sariphi
    So I can't go with you, Ilya.
[15:16] Sariphi
    I'll be back with more food.
[15:35] Amit
    Lady Sariphi.
[15:38] Sariphi
    Amit...
[15:41] Amit
    Whatever is the matter? You look pale.
[15:45] Sariphi
    Don't worry. It's nothing.
[15:48] Sariphi
    More importantly, I'm sorry
    for how Ilya treated you.
[15:51] Amit
    Don't be. I was too forward.
[15:55] Sariphi
    You're so kind, Amit.
[15:57] Sariphi
    You know, Ilya is kind, too, deep down.
[16:01] Sariphi
    When I was little,
    I tried to avoid making friends,
[16:05] Sariphi
    because I knew I'd be a sacrifice.
[16:08] Sariphi
    But Ilya was...
[16:14] (Flashback) Ilya
    Listen, Sariphi. If anybody
    makes you cry, you tell me.
[16:18] (Flashback) Ilya
    No matter who they are, I'll protect you.
[16:22] Sariphi
    I suppose beasts are just...
    a bit of a sore spot for him.
[16:27] Sariphi
    Even though he was strong,
    he wasn't violent for no reason.
[16:32] Sariphi
    But...
[16:36] Amit
    Lady Sariphi?
[16:38] Sariphi
    The way Ilya acted earlier...
[16:43] Sariphi
    That look in his eyes...
[16:46] Sariphi
    ...scared me a little.
[16:52] Anubis
    That concludes the report from Goya.
[16:55] Anubis
    The royal guard should return from
    Gamakas the day after tomorrow.
[17:01] Anubis
    Well, now.
[17:02] Anubis
    She must be taking food to that man.
    What admirable devotion.
[17:08] Anubis
    Although she forsook her homeland,
[17:11] Anubis
    Lady Sariphi must feel a special
    affection for old friends.
[17:15] Anubis
    And above all, she must find comfort
[17:19] Anubis
    in spending time with a fellow human.
[17:25] Sariphi
    Cy, Clops, wait here.
[17:28] Sariphi
    Ilya might snap at you.
[17:30] Clops
    We understand. We don't
    want to get kicked again.
[17:33] Cy
    Don't want.
[17:34] Sariphi
    I'm sorry.
[17:39] Sariphi
    Am I frightened of Ilya?
    What's gotten into me?
[17:45] Sariphi
    If I try speaking calmly to him again,
    I'm sure he'll be the Ilya I know.
[17:52] Sariphi
    Ilya.
[17:54] Sariphi
    I brought you dinner.
[17:56] Sariphi
    Try to eat something this time.
[18:00] Sariphi
    Listen, Ilya, can we try
    again to have a proper talk?
[18:04] Sariphi
    We'll have to say goodbye
    to each other tomorrow.
[18:08] Sariphi
    I don't know when we'll see each other
    again. We might never be able to.
[18:14] Sariphi
    I don't want to end things on a sour note.
[18:17] Ilya
    Yeah.
[18:19] Sariphi
    Ilya...
[18:20] Ilya
    You're right. I've been
    thinking the same thing.
[18:30] Ilya
    Sorry, Sariphi.
[18:33] Ilya
    I'm taking you with me. To somewhere
    that monster can't get you.
[18:40] Leonhart
    What?! Sariphi is gone?!
[18:43] Clops
    Sari never left the room,
    but she's not inside it, either!
[18:46] Clops
    Th-That man carried her off!
[18:49] Cy
    Kidnapped!
[18:50] Guard
    B-Begging Your Majesty's pardon!
[18:52] Guard
    The human has taken back
    his weapons and fled!
[18:58] Leonhart
    Dispatch a force in pursuit!
[19:01] Leonhart
    No, I'll go myself.
[19:04] Anubis
    Please wait, sire! You are a king.
[19:08] Anubis
    You must not act rashly.
[19:10] Leonhart
    Silence! Unless I act swiftly,
    Sariphi will suffer!
[19:12] Anubis
    Do you truly believe that Lady
    Sariphi was taken against her will?
[19:20] Leonhart
    What are you implying?
[19:23] Anubis
    Lady Sariphi is human.
[19:25] Anubis
    Under these circumstances, she might
    quite naturally choose a human man.
[19:32] Anubis
    And even if she did not,
    this is the realm of beasts.
[19:37] Anubis
    She will find life here difficult.
[19:42] Anubis
    Would she not be happier returning to
    live in human lands with a human man?
[19:51] Cy
    Sire!
[19:52] Clops
    Sari's running out of time!
[19:55] Leonhart
    Sariphi...
[19:57] Leonhart
    If that's where your happiness lies...
[20:00] Leonhart
    If I would be an obstacle to it, then...
[20:05] Amit
    Your Majesty!
[20:08] Amit
    P-Please, set out after
    Lady Sariphi at once.
[20:13] Clops
    Princess Amit?!
[20:16] Anubis
    What now?
[20:17] Amit
    I cannot believe that Lady Sariphi would
    choose to leave with that gentleman.
[20:24] Amit
    She risked her own life
    to attempt the ordeals
[20:29] Amit
    because she longs to be
    with you with all her heart.
[20:34] Amit
    Is that not so, sire?
[20:38] Anubis
    Princess Amit, kindly refrain from
    such outbursts in the royal presence.
[20:44] Anubis
    The palace is already in disarray.
[20:47] Anubis
    If His Majesty were to leave now...
[20:50] Jormungand
    In that case,
[20:52] Jormungand
    allow me to take charge of matters here.
[20:55] Clops
    Captain Jormungand!
[20:58] Anubis
    Jor!
[20:59] Anubis
    But you weren't due back for two days!
[21:02] Jormungand
    I managed to complete my
    mission ahead of schedule.
[21:06] Jormungand
    Sire, I am your loyal servant.
[21:10] Jormungand
    Command me, and I shall perform
[21:13] Jormungand
    any task Your Majesty desires.
[21:28] Clops
    His Majesty's holy beast...
[21:30] Leonhart
    Take charge in my absence, Jormungand.
[21:34] Jormungand
    Yes, sire.
[21:35] Anubis
    Please wait! Sire!
[23:25] Clops
    T-Terrible news, Chancellor Anubis!
    That human man kidnapped Lady Sariphi!
[23:30] Cy
    Terrible! Terrible!
[23:36] Clops
    Chancellor Anubis just...
