[00:20] Arc
    Is that... Could it be?
[00:27] Arc
    A hydra!
[00:29] Arc
    Hi there. It's me, Arc.
[00:31] Arc
    We had traveled to the Holy Revlon
    Empire in search of kidnapped elves,
[00:37] Arc
    and now we have to fight this abomination.
[00:45] Chiyome
    That must be the infamous
    ruiner of nations...
[00:49] Chiyome
    Do you suppose the man from
    before is controlling it?
[00:51] Arc
    There can be no doubt.
[00:54] Chiyome
    To think humans can control
    a beast of such scale...
[01:04] Arc
    And there are the rings, again.
[01:06] Chiyome
    We need to prepare more
    before engaging this foe.
[01:09] Chiyome
    I propose a retreat.
[01:15] Arc
    It's noticed us!
[01:29] Fumba
    Wiped off the bloody map! Serves 'em right!
[01:32] Fumba
    How's that?!
[01:33] Fumba
    How do you like a taste of my power?!
[01:43] (Flashback) Fumba
    What don't you geezers understand?!
[01:45] (Flashback) Fumba
    Why won't you give me the credit I'm due?!
[01:47] (Flashback) Fumba
    No one in this clan can compare to me!
[01:53] (Flashback) Chieftain
    Fumba...
[01:54] (Flashback) Chieftain
    You are weak.
[01:56] (Flashback) Fumba
    What?!
[01:57] (Flashback) Chieftain
    In your weakness, you seek
    out superficial strength.
[02:02] (Flashback) Chieftain
    How can you expect our approval
    when you are devoid of discipline?
[02:11] (Flashback) Velmoas
    Fumba, a cur of your
    standing would ordinarily
[02:15] (Flashback) Velmoas
    never be allowed an audience
    with His Imperial Highness.
[02:21] (Flashback) Domitianus
    You needn't be so caustic, Velmoas.
[02:24] (Flashback) Velmoas
    Sire!
[02:26] (Flashback) Domitianus
    A monster sorcerer... How amusing.
[02:30] (Flashback) Domitianus
    If your abilities benefit the empire,
    I will not question your standing.
[02:35] (Flashback) Domitianus
    Show me your power, Fumba.
[02:48] Fumba
    This is the hydra's power!
[02:51] Fumba
    And with it, I'm unstoppable!
[02:54] Fumba
    Everyone who looked down on me
    will all be bowing to me!
[03:00] Fumba
    It's feeding time!
    Go and gorge yourself on that city!
[03:06] Fumba
    Your Imperial Highness,
    I'm helping myself to one of your towns
[03:12] Fumba
    because a pet needs
    to have a healthy diet...
[03:15] Fumba
    where it can eat its fill!
[03:28] Chiyome
    We're alive...?
[03:30] Arc
    I'm glad the shield was
    able to activate in time.
[03:36] Chiyome
    You defended against an attack 
    that could level a fortress with a shield?
[03:40] Chiyome
    What in the world are you, Sir Arc?
[03:44] Arc
    Just the traveling mercenary
    hired by Lady Ariane...
[03:48] Arc
    Wait, where is Lady Ariane?
[03:51] Arc
    Lady Ariane! Lady Ariane? Lady Ariane—
[03:57] Arc
    L-Lady Ariane...?
[04:00] Ariane
    I wasn't unconscious at the time, you know.
[04:04] Ariane
    But I was under a layer of illusions
    that kept being re-cast...
[04:07] Ariane
    And couldn't move.
[04:09] Ariane
    Which means I could hear what
    he said. I know what he did.
[04:14] Ariane
    Come on, Arc.
[04:17] Ariane
    Let's find him.
[04:20] Ariane
    And then...
[04:23] Ariane
    for making me angry...
[04:25] Ariane
    and especially for what
    he's done to my kin...
[04:28] Ariane
    we'll fill him with regret.
[04:31] Chiyome
    I agree with wanting
    to defeat the monster tamer.
[04:34] Chiyome
    His control over that hydra makes him too
    great a threat for my people to ignore!
[04:40] Ariane
    He'll think that we're dead already.
[04:44] Ariane
    That'll provide the perfect
    opportunity for an ambush.
[04:46] Ariane
    Arc, let's go.
[04:51] Ariane
    Arc?
[04:53] Arc
    What about the hydra?
    It's heading towards town.
[04:57] Chiyome
    There's little that can be done.
[04:59] Chiyome
    It's a giant monster that's earned
    a reputation as a ruiner of nations...
[05:02] Chiyome
    It's like a force of nature itself.
[05:06] Chiyome
    We can't...
[05:07] Arc
    No, I'd say it's nothing like that.
[05:10] Arc
    Nothing can be done
    to stop earthquakes and cyclones,
[05:14] Arc
    but a hydra can be killed.
[05:16] Chiyome
    Th-That's technically true, but...
[05:19] Ariane
    You think you can handle it, don't you?
[05:22] Arc
    But of course!
[05:24] Ariane
    Chiyome, let's find the bastard.
[05:27] Chiyome
    Right!
[05:28] Ariane
    Arc.
[05:30] Ariane
    Take care of it.
[05:39] Velmoas
    I have an update, Holy Emperor Domitianus.
[05:44] Velmoas
    The ruiner of nations has grown as expected,
[05:47] Velmoas
    and will be ready to be fielded shortly.
[05:53] Domitianus
    That is good to hear.
[05:55] Velmoas
    The employ rings being crafted from analyzing
    Fumba's sorcery are nearly complete, as well.
[06:03] Velmoas
    Though control over the hydra
    still requires that we use him.
[06:10] Domitianus
    But all the same, I should decide
    what I'm going to do with Fumba.
[06:39] Soldier 1
    Wh-What is that beast?!
[06:41] Soldier 2
    Prepare the men for battle!
[06:43] Soldier 3
    Have all the citizens evacuate
    to the northern side of the city!
[06:46] Soldier 3
    Seal the interior gates
    once the soldiers have taken to the field!
[06:49] Soldier 3
    We will defend the land and citizenry entrusted
    to us by His Imperial Highness!

    Regenerating, as expected.
    How very resilient.
[08:43] Arc
    It's easy to see how this creature
    left its mark on mythology.
[08:51] Arc
    I've never used this
    particular magic skill before...
[08:55] Arc
    It is powerful, and its scale is grand,
[08:57] Arc
    meaning I cannot maintain it for long.
[09:02] Arc
    This will be over in five minutes!
[09:05] Arc
    I summon the Infernal Demon, Ifrit!
[09:25] Arc
    Now, ruiner of nations, you will
    go no further, and know no escape!

SIGN    I Shall Cut Through the World's Evils!
[09:47] Chiyome
    What in the world is that?
[09:51] Ariane
    Ponta!
[09:55] Fumba
    What the hell is that?
[09:57] Fumba
    Did the rust bucket summon that thing?
[10:02] Fumba
    Hydra! Show that monster—
[10:10] Ariane
    There you are.
[10:13] Fumba
    Oh, if it ain't the dark elf beauty.
[10:15] Fumba
    What's this about?
    You here to be mine, after all?
[10:19] Ariane
    No. I'm here to kill you.
[10:23] Fumba
    Look, sweetheart,
    I know you're a tough customer...
[10:27] Fumba
    but don't get too cocky!
[10:29] Ariane
    Cocky?
[10:31] Fumba
    Well, yeah!
[10:32] Fumba
    You've seen what the hydra can do, right?
[10:34] Fumba
    Compared to it,
    you're less than a fart in the wind!
[10:38] Ariane
    You're right.
[10:39] Ariane
    The hydra is strong.
    Its power is beyond comprehension.
[10:43] Ariane
    But that power isn't yours.
[10:46] Fumba
    What?!
[10:47] Ariane
    You, yourself, are weak.
[10:51] Fumba
    Weak?!
[10:52] Fumba
    Me, the master of the bloody hydra?!
[10:55] Ariane
    That's right.
[10:56] Ariane
    You're weak, so you try to make a display
    of strength by controlling that abomination.
[11:01] Ariane
    You trample over the powerless in an attempt
    to distract from your own weakness.
[11:06] (Flashback) Chieftain
    Fumba...
[11:07] (Flashback) Chieftain
    You are weak.
[11:09] (Flashback) Domitianus
    Show me your power, Fumba.
[11:12] Fumba
    Damn it. Her, too, eh?
[11:14] Ariane
    The truly strong do not become conceited.
[11:18] Ariane
    And they don't hesitate to use
    their strength to defend the powerless.
[11:21] Ariane
    I've learned that from the people around me.
[11:25] Ariane
    That's the kind of strength I seek!
[11:30] Fumba
    You're pissing me off.
[11:36] Fumba
    Every last one of you is pissing me off!
[11:39] Fumba
    No one wants to admit how good I am,
    so I'll crush you all!
[11:51] Fumba
    You're pretty fast, all right! And yet...
[12:02] Ariane
    This is the power you were talking about?
[12:05] Ariane
    I'm not forgiving enough to fall
    for the same trick twice.
[12:10] Fumba
    You piece of trash...!
[12:12] Fumba
    Stop looking at me like that!
[12:16] Fumba
    Maybe I'll let the hydra
    take another shot at you!
[12:21] Fumba
    Stupid brat!
[12:25] Fumba
    The pattern...!
[12:27] Chiyome
    I thought as much.
[12:29] Chiyome
    Those complex cursed markings
    were what let you control monsters.
[12:34] Chiyome
    It's a remarkable technique.
[12:36] Chiyome
    But because of their intricacy,
    the slightest disruption...
[12:42] Ariane
    ...is enough to make them stop working, right?
[12:46] Fumba
    What have you bitches done?!
[12:49] Fumba
    Don't blame me for what happens now!
[12:52] Fumba
    The hydra's beyond my control!
[12:55] Fumba
    It's not gonna stop until it's
    eaten everyone in that town!
[13:02] Ariane
    It's all right, Chiyome.
[13:05] Ariane
    That monster will never kill again.
[13:10] Ariane
    Not with Arc around.
[13:19] Fumba
    Now... Now, hold on a tick...
[13:27] Fumba
    I was just doing what
    the damned emperor ordered me to!
[13:30] Fumba
    I'll apologize for killing
    my share of elves, even!
[13:34] Ariane
    I don't need your apologies.
[13:37] Ariane
    You can give them to the people
    you killed, when you see them.
[13:42] Fumba
    W-Wait...
[13:43] Ariane
    Blazing embers, heed my call.
    Consume all to ash!
[13:51] Fumba
    Shit! Shit, shit, shit...!
[13:53] Fumba
    Shit!
[13:56] Ariane
    Though I doubt you'll be seeing them,
    since you'll be in Hell.
[14:30] Arc
    You're not escaping!
[14:50] Arc
    Ifrit! Flame Hellion!
SIGN    Flame Hellion
[15:02] Chiyome
    Um... do you suppose that's...?
[15:05] Ariane
    For someone who talks
    about wanting the quiet life,
[15:08] Ariane
    he never hesitates to make a spectacle.
[15:16] Arc
    It seems that's the end of it.
[15:28] Arc
    Hey!
[15:33] Arc
    I'm glad to see you two are all right.
[15:35] Arc
    Did you settle things on this end?
[15:37] Ariane
    Yes, thankfully.
[15:40] Ariane
    Putting that aside... what exactly is that?
[15:44] Arc
    A creature summoned from another dimension.
[15:46] Arc
    No worries, it should
    disappear after another minute.
[15:50] Ariane
    You don't do anything in half-steps, do you?
[15:52] Chiyome
    After a display like that, you'll be lucky
    if people don't start worshiping it...
[15:58] Arc
    Oh, I highly doubt that!
[16:03] Ariane
    Oh...
[16:04] Chiyome
    A Whispering Fowl?
[16:06] Ariane
    It's from Danka.
[16:09] Bird(Danka)
    This is Danka. I have news.
[16:11] Ariane
    News?
[16:13] Bird(Danka)
    Rhoden's second princess, Yuriarna,
[16:16] Bird(Danka)
    has met with one of the great
    elven elders, Lord Fangas.
[16:32] Fangas
    You're saying the Rhoden
    Kingdom will take responsibility
[16:35] Fangas
    for searching for our missing kin?
[16:39] Yuriarna
    Yes, Lord Fangas.
[16:41] Yuriarna
    The persecution of these elves,
[16:44] Yuriarna
    and the breaking of our
    long-held pact, are crimes of men.
[16:47] Yuriarna
    I swear, by the honor of the Rhoden
    royal family, to atone for them.
[16:51] Fangas
    I gratefully accept your offer.
[16:54] Fangas
    I can't help but think
    that there's more to it, however.
[17:02] Yuriarna
    My older brother, the first prince, Sekt,
[17:05] Yuriarna
    has the Great Revlon Empire's backing.
[17:08] Yuriarna
    And my late brother,
    the second prince, Dakares,
[17:12] Yuriarna
    had the Holy Revlon Empire backing him.
[17:15] Fangas
    I've heard as much.
[17:18] Yuriarna
    Eastern and western Revlon are both heirs
    to their shared culture and history,
[17:22] Yuriarna
    where other races have faced
    all matter of subjugation.
[17:26] Yuriarna
    Should a monarch with their
    backing take the throne,
[17:29] Yuriarna
    I fear that cases such as these,
    that threaten elves, will continue.
[17:34] Fangas
    I see.
[17:35] Fangas
    Then, in order to prevent such an outcome,
    you'd ask for our backing
[17:41] Fangas
    to make sure that you obtain
    succession to the throne?
[17:45] Yuriarna
    And in exchange,
    should Revlon invade elvish territory,
[17:50] Yuriarna
    our kingdom will stake its
    survival on defending your lands.
[17:59] Fangas
    With this arrangement in place,
[18:01] Fangas
    I could ask for nothing
    more than a future where
[18:04] Fangas
    our nations, and peoples, grow closer!
[18:06] Fangas
    Your offer sounds good.
[18:08] Yuriarna
    You're mistaken, Lord Fangas...
[18:13] Yuriarna
    You've already heard how the
    Lord of Lamburt has taken an elf wife, yes?
[18:19] Yuriarna
    Humans and elves...
[18:21] Yuriarna
    The time for mutual co-existence
    may already be at hand.
[18:27] Fangas
    I have the feeling we will be
    great neighbors, Princess Yuriarna.
[18:33] Yuriarna
    Thank you so much.
[18:45] Arc
    Lady Ariane...
[18:47] Arc
    Is the news from Sir Danka
    not sitting well with you?
[18:51] Arc
    I can imagine being dismissed
    from your duty so abruptly is unsettling.
[18:54] Ariane
    Well... yes.
[18:56] Ariane
    I know I don't have to search
    for our missing kin anymore, but...
[19:02] Ariane
    It's just so sudden.
[19:04] Arc
    True enough.
[19:05] Ariane
    Of course, it's wonderful that Rhoden will be
    taking action to find the missing elves.
[19:11] Ariane
    But...
[19:13] Ariane
    I'm surprised that humans would be willing to take
    that kind of action for elves.
[19:20] Ariane
    Do you remember what Carcy said before?
[19:24] Carcy
    A time will come where humans
    and elves can live hand-in-hand.
[19:29] Ariane
    At the time, I thought
    there was no chance, but...
[19:35] Arc
    It seems the time Sir Carcy envisioned
[19:38] Arc
    may be here sooner than anyone had thought.
[19:41] Ariane
    This just feels so strange.
[19:44] Ariane
    Since meeting you, Arc,
    I, and the others...
[19:48] Ariane
    No, it's like the entire
    world has started to change.
[19:55] Arc
    You have such a vivid
    imagination, Lady Ariane!
[19:59] Ariane
    I don't see how it's funny!
[20:00] Chiyome
    Still, a world where judgment
    is delivered to the wicked,
[20:03] Chiyome
    and salvation is offered to the just...
[20:05] Chiyome
    With Sir Arc, a world
    that makes the right kind of sense...
[20:09] Chiyome
    Seems like it may be possible.
[20:17] Sekt
    Yuriarna survived?
[20:19] Cetrion
    Yes, sir.
[20:20] Cetrion
    Her negotiations with the elves
    have been successful, as well.
[20:23] Cetrion
    It seems she's on the verge
    of winning the people's favor.
[20:28] Cetrion
    And at this rate, the throne...
[20:31] Sekt
    The assassination failed? No.
[20:36] Sekt
    Someone working for me must
    have sided with Yuriarna.
[20:41] Sekt
    Still...
[20:44] Sekt
    If that's the case, so be it.
[20:46] Sekt
    Rhoden's prosperity will
    simply take a alternate path.
[20:55] Yuriarna
    I know that, in that moment, I died.
[21:00] Yuriarna
    If I am alive again,
[21:03] Yuriarna
    it means there is something
    I must accomplish in this world.
[21:07] Yuriarna
    Which means I must seek
    that goal out, without hesitation.
[21:12] Yuriarna
    Isn't that right, my angel?
[21:21] Domitianus
    The hydra was killed?
[21:23] Velmoas
    Yes, and Fumba, as well.
[21:26] Domitianus
    I see.
[21:28] Domitianus
    Well, it won't be a problem.
[21:30] Domitianus
    The employ rings have already
    proven their usefulness.
[21:35] Velmoas
    Of course.
[21:36] Domitianus
    Although I am curious about
    who exactly slew the great beast...
[21:45] Ariane
    What was that, Arc? Are you getting sick?
[21:48] Arc
    No...
[21:49] Arc
    Perhaps someone, somewhere,
    is talking about me.
[21:52] Ariane
    What are you talking about?
[21:54] Arc
    Well, this matter has been brought
    to a successful close.
[21:58] Arc
    I suppose I will quietly,
    inconspicuously, continue my adventures.
[22:02] Ariane
    Quietly?
[22:03] Chiyome
    Inconspicuously?
[22:05] Ariane
    After what you just did,
    how can you say that with a straight face?
[22:09] Arc
    See for yourself!
[22:10] Chiyome
    S-S-S-Skeleton?!
[22:14] Arc
    What's the matter, Lady Chiyome?
[22:16] Ariane
    Oh, right, you've never seen
     Arc unmasked before...
[22:20] Ariane
    He's apparently under some kind of curse
    that makes him look like this.
[22:25] Ariane
    Uh, Chiyome?
[22:29] Arc
    So, Lady Ariane, what will you
    do after returning to Lalatoya?
[22:34] Ariane
    I'll show you the way to the Lord Crown.
[22:36] Ariane
    We need to make sure you get to the spring.
[22:39] Arc
    The spring...
[22:40] Ariane
    The one that can break any curse.
    Did you forget?
[22:44] Arc
    Oh, that's right!
[22:46] Arc
    The spring near the lair of the dragon lord!
[22:49] Arc
    How truly fantastical!
[22:51] Chiyome
    F-Fantastical...?
[22:54] Arc
    I know, Lady Chiyome!
[22:55] Arc
    If it's possible,
    I'd love to visit your ninja village!
[22:59] Chiyome
    Uh... Well... right.
[23:02] Chiyome
    We'd love to host you... Yes.
[23:08] Arc
    So, here we are again. It's me, Arc.
[23:11] Arc
    My journey that began
    with a goal of living the quiet life...
[23:16] Arc
    will now continue,
    after making many new friends.
[23:22] Arc
    I still have no idea why
    I have come to this world.
[23:28] Arc
    But it's of no concern right now.
[23:32] Arc
    I'll simply enjoy my adventures
    here for a bit longer.
