[00:17] Hyrince
    Don't get too worked up.
[00:20] Shun
    Hyrince-san...
[00:21] Hyrince
    The elves say the Empire isn't
    going to arrive for two days.
[00:26] Hyrince
    If you're this high-strung now,
    you won't last until then.
[00:30] Shun
    Right...
[00:32] Imperial Soldier
    Advance! Advance!
SIGN    So I'm Not in This One, Am I?
[02:18] Kunihiko
    Nice to meet you. I'm Kunihiko Tagawa.
[02:21] Asaka
    I'm Asaka Kushitani.
[02:23] Hyrince
    So you're Kunihiko and Asaka.
[02:26] Hyrince
    I heard you managed to drive away
[02:28] Hyrince
    one of the the Demon Army's commanders
    during the previous battle.
[02:30] Kunihiko
    Yep, that sounds like us.
[02:33] Asaka
    Come on, it's not like we were
    the only ones out there.
[02:37] Hyrince
    Having you two on our side,
    with your reputation, is a big relief.
[02:40] Hyrince
    Good to have you.
[02:41] Kunihiko
    Likewise!
[02:43] Katia
    It seems they're fairly
    well-known adventurers.
[02:47] Fei
    You jealous?
[02:49] Shun
    Well... I haven't really
    accomplished anything, yet.
[02:53] Katia
    It won't be long now.
[02:54] Katia
    We're going to assess
    the barrier now, right?
[02:57] Katia
    Let's be on our way.
[02:58] Fei
    Thanks for showing us the way!
[03:03] Fei
    He could at least say something.
[03:14] Shun
    This is the barrier...
[03:16] Kunihiko
    How's it work below ground?
[03:19] Elf A
    The barrier extends through the ground
    and into the sky, in a similar fashion.
[03:24] Kunihiko
    Kinda wanna see exactly how tough it is.
[03:27] Kunihiko
    Do you mind?
[03:28] Elf A
    As you will.
[03:29] Kunihiko
    Hell yeah!
[03:31] Kunihiko
    Everybody, step back!
[03:46] Shun
    That sword... It's magic!
[03:50] Kunihiko
    Had it made from the remains
    of a dragon we took down.
[03:53] Kunihiko
    Same goes for Asaka's staff.
[03:55] Asaka
    For the record, we were only part
    of a bigger group, that's all.
[04:00] Kunihiko
    But damn, this thing is really impressive.
[04:03] Kunihiko
    Maybe it can't be busted?
[04:05] Hyrince
    What about you, Fei?
[04:07] Fei
    If that didn't do anything, I can't, either.
[04:10] Shun
    The pride of the elves,
    an impenetrable barrier.
[04:13] Kunihiko
    Can Natsume seriously break this thing?
[04:15] Katia
    Perhaps he doesn't need to.
[04:18] Katia
    The Imperial Army's goal
    is to subdue the elves.
[04:21] Katia
    If the barrier is in their way, they can
    simply bring it down from the inside.
[04:25] Asaka
    But how?
[04:27] Katia
    It's fairly simple.
[04:29] Katia
    They can use the teleportation circle
    to enter, like us, and then disable it.
[04:33] Katia
    Alternately, they can have someone
    on the inside disable it.
[04:36] Elf A
    Are you suggesting that there
    is a traitor among the elves?
[04:39] Katia
    I'm only talking about possibilities.
[04:41] Katia
    The Imperial Army's commander, Hugo,
    possesses mind control powers.
[04:46] Katia
    With them...
[04:47] Elf A
    We would never fall prey
    to that sort of thing.
[04:51] Katia
    Yes, but perhaps to be on the safe side,
    the circle should be temporarily disabled.
[04:57] ELF A
    There is no need.
[04:58] ELF A
    No matter what tricks they try, the humans
    do not have the means to threaten us.
[05:05] Elf B
    Perhaps you should be careful no one in
    your group falls prey to such tricks.
[05:08] Elf B
    Right?
[05:10] Elf C
    She shames her race.
[05:12] Elf C
    Can't believe she had
    the nerve to come here.
[05:14] Fei
    What's that supposed to mean?
[05:18] Hyrince
    Putting all that aside, we managed
    to confirm the barrier's strength.
[05:21] Hyrince
    Let's head back and start planning.
[05:24] Shun
    Good idea...
[05:25] Shun
    Come on, Anna.
[05:31] Fei
    Do we seriously have to help these jerks?
[05:38] Fei
    And now we've gotta walk all
    the way back to our lodging!
[05:41] Kunihiko
    What are we doing, exactly?
    Stopping at your place?
[05:45] Shun
    No, I...
[05:47] Shun
    Sensei?
[05:49] Fil
    I'll escort them from here.
    The rest of you are relieved.
[05:52] Elf A
    But...
[05:53] Fil
    It's fine.
[06:02] Fil
    Before the fighting begins, there's something
     important I need to share with all of you.
[06:06] Hyrince
    We'll go on ahead.
[06:09] Fil
    No. I especially want the
    two of you to hear this.
[06:14] Fil
    You may have noticed already, but...
[06:18] Fil
    We all have memories of another
    world we were born in previously,
[06:21] Fil
    before reincarnating in this one.
[06:24] Ana
    Re... incarnation?
[06:26] Fil
    As reincarnations, we were born with powerful
     skills and a large amount of skill points.
[06:31] Fil
    It's through the use of those that myself,
[06:34] Fil
    Shun-kun, and the others have powers
    beyond what most people can attain.
[06:37] Fil
    But in the world we came from,
    there were no skills or levels.
[06:42] Fil
    Not to mention monsters or demons.
[06:45] Fil
    I don't know if I could say it was at peace,
     but it was a quieter world.
[06:50] Hyrince
    It's a little hard to swallow,
[06:53] Hyrince
    but considering what I've seen from all
    of you so far, this explains a lot.
[06:57] Hyrince
    But if all that is true,
    then why are you in this world?
[07:01] Fil
    I believe it was done intentionally.
[07:05] Fil
    There is an old story down
    passed down among the elves.
[07:08] Fil
    The gods will prey upon those
    called from another world,
[07:12] Fil
    taking their lives and their power.
[07:16] Fil
    The elves call these gods "administrators,"
    and see them as enemies.
[07:20] Fil
    The reason they agreed to help
    protect the reincarnations
[07:23] Fil
    was to prevent those with powerful
    skills from being killed by the administrators,
[07:25] Fil
    and having their power stolen.
[07:28] Shun
    Gods...
[07:30] Shun
    Administrators?
[07:31] Asaka
    Feels like the scale of things has
    suddenly gotten a lot bigger.
[07:36] Fil
    I don't really believe all of it myself.
[07:39] Fil
    But there are actually entities that
    call themselves administrators.
[07:45] Fil
    And they are the ones who had Hugo
    overthrow the Analeit Kingdom,
[07:50] Fil
    and direct the Imperial Army
     towards this forest.
[07:53] Hyrince
    Hang on! I thought Prince Hugo
    was the one behind all of this?
[07:58] Fil
    Natsume-kun... Hugo is just being used.
[08:02] Fil
    The fact that Sophia-san is working
    with him is proof of that.
[08:07] Fil
    Sophia Keren... In her previous life,
    her name was Shouko Negishi.
[08:11] Fil
    She's one of the reincarnations who
    has sided with the administrators.
[08:17] Fil
    I never wanted to see my
    students fighting like this.
[08:25] Fil
    Please, protect these children.
[08:32] Fil
    And I'm asking all of you...
[08:34] Fil
    To survive this. Please.
[08:42] Hyrince
    Let's go over what we know.
[08:44] Hyrince
    First, there's the barrier
    protecting the elf forest.
[08:47] Hyrince
    It's essentially a wall that covers a wide
    area, and getting through it is no easy task.
[08:52] Hyrince
    Getting into the village likely means
    targeting the teleportation circle.
[08:58] Hyrince
    It's guarded pretty closely,
    but not totally secure.
[09:02] Hyrince
    Another way to think of it is that
     if we can protect the teleportation circle,
[09:06] Hyrince
    we can prevent the Imperial invasion.
[09:09] Kunihiko
    So the best thing that we can do
    is to guard the circle, right?
[09:14] Hyrince
    Anyone have objections?
[09:17] Shun
    What if there are elves that
    have been brainwashed?
[09:20] Hyrince
    There's nothing we can do about that.
[09:22] Fei
    Seriously?
[09:24] Katia
    We don't have time to travel around
    using Appraisal on every elf we see.
[09:28] Kunhiko
    Still seems like a bad idea to just
    ignore the possibility, though.
[09:31] Asaka
    A worst case scenario would be invaders
    coming in through the teleportation circle,
[09:35] Asaka
    on top of having brainwashed
    elves start a riot.
[09:38] Asaka
    And if that happens, the barrier
    could actually be taken down.
[09:42] Shun
    That would be pretty terrible.
[09:45] Fei
    Are we seriously forgetting
    the real problem here?
[09:49] Fei
    Remember?
[09:51] Fei
    That Negishi chick is way more of a
    threat than that dumbass Natsume.
[09:55] Kunihiko
    Spooky...
[09:56] Kunihiko
    And she's called Sophia now,
    right? She's that dangerous?
[10:00] Katia
    She has an ability to neutralize magic.
[10:04] Asaka
    Seriously? That's basically cheating.
[10:07] Kunihiko
    Wait, could that power work on the barrier?
[10:10] Shun
    I don't know.
[10:12] Fei
    It's not out of the question.
[10:14] Katia
    Plus, there's no guarantee that Negishi is
    the only reincarnation on the enemy side.
[10:19] Katia
    We know for certain that we'll
    be dealing with these three.
SIGN    Natsume=Hugo
SIGN    Negishi=Sophia
SIGN    Hasebe=Yuri
[10:24] Katia
    And from the information sensei has,
[10:27] Katia
    there are reincarnations who
    haven't been accounted for yet.
[10:31] Katia
    Two of them.
[10:37] Kunihiko
    Kusama and Kyouya...
[10:40] Kunihiko
    What are the odds they're
    working with the enemy?
[10:42] Katia
    Sensei said Negishi is one of the reincarnations
     who sided with the administrators.
[10:47] Katia
    Which means we can be sure that either
    Kusama or Kyouya are with her, too.
[10:52] Katia
    And we can't eliminate the
    chance it's both of them...
[10:55] Shun
    Do you think Kyouya would side with Hugo?
[10:58] Katia
    If we think of it in terms of his previous
    life and personality, I can't imagine it.
[11:03] Katia
    But...
[11:05] Shun
    You're right...
[11:07] Shun
    Kyouya could have changed, too.
[11:10] Asaka
    Did you guys forget all about Kusama-kun?
[11:16] Kunhiko
    Sorry, Kusama. I totally forgot about you.
[11:21] Fei
    Knowing Shino, he'd probably end up
    running errands or doing grunt work
[11:24] Fei
    without even realizing there's a conspiracy.
[11:27] Kunihiko
    So there's Natsume, Negishi, and more
    reincarnations that we're not sure about.
[11:32] Kunihiko
    Damn it, this is making my head hurt.
[11:35] Shun
    But we still have to do this.
[11:39] Hyrince
    I hate to interrupt when
    you're feeling motivated,
[11:41] Hyrince
    but what exactly do you
    guys want to accomplish?
[11:44] Hyrince
    This battle is between
    the elves and the empire,
[11:48] Hyrince
    and we're just offering our assistance.
[11:50] Hyrince
    It's not do-or-die for us.
[11:53] Shun
    But if they lose, the elves will be...
[11:55] Hyrince
    Don't get your priorities mixed up.
[11:57] Hyrince
    Since we're here to help,
    that's what we'll do.
[12:00] Hyrince
    But I say, if the alternative is all of you
    getting killed, we consider retreat an option.
[12:07] Hyrince
    I am not willing to let anyone else
    I care about die in front of me.
[12:11] Hyrince
    I think Filimøs feels the same way.
[12:16] Shun
    I understand.
[12:20] Shun
    But I can't just stand back
    and watch people suffer.
[12:25] Hyrince
    Julius used to say the same kinds of things.
[12:28] Hyrince
    We'll do everything that we
    realistically can to help.
[12:31] Shun
    Right.
[12:32] Hyrince
    All right!
[12:33] Hyrince
    We're going to help secure the teleportation
     circle, like we originally planned.
[12:38] Hyrince
    We can assume coordinating with
    the elves is off the table,
[12:40] Hyrince
    and I expect you all to do
    everything you can to survive.
[12:43] Hyrince
    The battle will begin tomorrow. I want
    all of you to be prepared for action.
[12:48] Everyone
    Right!
[12:58] Elf A
    You humans...
[13:00] Elf A
    You think our barrier can be broken?
[13:04] Elf A
    I'd like to see it.
[13:07] Hyrince
    Whether they try to break the barrier or
    get in through the teleportation circle...
[13:11] Hyrince
    There's gonna be some
    kind of movement today.
[13:17] Elf C
    Who are you?!
[13:18] Elf C
    Where did you come from?!
[13:20] Shinobu
    Whoa, hold—
[13:22] Fei
    What is it?
[13:24] Elf B
    Stop struggling and surrender!
[13:26] Shinobu
    Watch it! Are you trying to kill me?!
[13:29] Shinobu
    Oh, wait, you probably are.
     That makes sense.
[13:33] Shinobu
    Hey, it's Shun, Kanata, and Kuniyan!
[13:36] Shinobu
    It's been a while!
[13:37] Shinobu
    Sup to the rest of you, too!
[13:40] Fei
    That attitude... Is it...
[13:42] Shun
    Kusama?
[13:44] Shinobu
    Oh, yeah, you nailed it!
[13:45] Shinobu
    You guys doing good?
[13:47] Katia
    Kusama, if you know who we are,
    should I assume you're our enemy?
[13:54] Shinobu
    I guess, technically, yeah.
[13:57] Kunihiko
    Okay, we're taking him alive!
[14:00] Shinobu
    Aw, come on, there's no way
    I can win against all of you!

[14:13] Shinobu
    Whoa, scary!
[14:18] Shinobu
    Damn, Shun, are you trying to kill me?!
[14:21] Shinobu
    Clones... Is that an illusion?
[14:23] Hyrince
    Surround him!
[14:26] Shinobu
    Hold up, hold up!
[14:28] Shinobu
    Everyone at once?!
[14:29] Shinobu
    How's that fair?!
[14:37] Shinobu
    Damn it! That old fart lied about
    this being an easy mission.
[14:42] Shun
    You're not getting away!
[14:44] Shinobu
    You guys are gonna want to run, too.
SIGN    <Exploding Sword>
[14:52] Shun
    Everyone, get outside, now!
[14:55] Hyrince
    Shun!
[14:57] Hyrince
    It won't help! Give it up!
[14:59] Shun
    But—
[15:15] Anna
    The teleportation circle...
[15:17] Asaka
    He had the magic power of the sword overload,
    turning it into a bomb.
[15:21] Kunihiko
    That ass Kusama must've wanted
    to trap us inside the barrier!
[15:33] Hyrince
    Besides, right now we should
    conserve our strength.
[15:36] Hyrince
    The real battle's yet to come.
[15:37] Katia
    I think...
[15:40] Katia
    He didn't destroy the circle
    to keep us inside the barrier.
[15:52] Kunihiko
    What the hell?!
[16:04] Fei
    Everyone, prepare to intercept.
[16:07] Fei
    The barrier...
[16:12] Hugo
    The barrier is down! And they can't
    use the teleportation circle!
[16:15] Hugo
    There's no escape for them now!
[16:17] Hugo
    I want every one of them at our feet!
[16:35] Fil
    This forest belongs to us, the elves.
[16:37] Fil
    Let's teach them how foolish it
    is to attack elves in their home!
[16:43] Elves
    Right!
[16:45] Yuri
    As enemies of the Church,
    the elves must face death!

    I'm glad to see you, too!
[17:39] Fil
    Negishi-chan...
[17:40] Sophia
    Didn't I tell you not to call me that?
[17:43] Hugo
    Sophia, I don't need any help.
[17:47] Sophia
    Really? I'll just step back and watch, then.
[17:51] Hugo
    All right! Bring it on, then.

    Stand around too long,

    Is that magic sword what

[18:18] Hugo
    Yeah!
[18:19] Hugo
    Did you think I was still the same loser
    who had his powers stripped by you?!

    You're awfully cocky for

    Give it a rest!

    Retreat!

    You know all about one of the ways...
[19:01] Hugo
    The skill, Lust.
[19:03] Hugo
    It lets you control people however you want,
     which is pretty damn sweet.
[19:09] Hugo
    And the other is my ultimate power!
[19:13] Hugo
    It's called Greed!
[19:15] Fil
    Greed...
[19:18] Sophia
    Right. One of the Seven Deadly Sins skills.
[19:24] Sophia
    It lets you steal the
    power of those you kill.
[19:27] Sophia
    Their skills, their stats, their skill points...
    Just a little bit, though.
[19:31] Hugo
    Just like this.
[19:33] Hugo
    That's how I'm stronger
    now than I was before.
[19:35] Hugo
    Thanks for that, teach.
[19:38] Fil
    How... many people have you
    killed to get this far?
[19:43] Fil
    How many crimes have you...
[19:56] Yuri
    Sensei, rest for a bit.
[19:59] Yuri
    It will be all right. God will
    purify your poisoned mind.
[20:10] Hugo
    Aw, look what you did to your student!
[20:14] Hugo
    Some teacher you are.
[20:16] Fil
    You don't get to say that!
[20:19] Hugo
    What are you trying to...
[20:24] Fil
    It's a barrier. Not as big as the
    one around the elf village...
[20:30] Fil
    But you won't be able to break it.
[20:34] Hugo
    Can't breathe...
[20:37] Fil
    The big difference between it and
    the barrier around the village...
[20:39] Fil
    is that air is slowly
    emptying out of this one.
[20:46] Fil
    It's over, Natsume-kun.
[20:49] Fil
    No... Hugo.
[20:59] Sophia
    That was pretty sad, considering you went
    to the trouble of asking me to butt out.
[21:04] Hugo
    Don't be like that.
[21:07] Hugo
    I didn't figure Oka-chan had a
    secret weapon like that waiting.
[21:14] Fil
    Negishi...chan...
[21:17] Hugo
    It ends now, though.
