**[00:12] Saphir**
Is this the palace of Idanokan?
**[00:15] Hime**
Were we able to make it back?
**[00:18] Hime**
It's so dark, I can hardly see.
**[00:24] Satou**
Amber?
**[00:30] Amber**
There are no monsters nearby.
**[00:32] Amber**
There's nothing living, either.
**[00:35] Satou**
Are you feeling sad?
**[00:39] Granart**
Be careful.
**[00:41] Granart**
I smell blood.
**[00:44] Group**
Huh?
**[00:47] Granart**
I'm blinded!
**[00:52] Amber**
Is this better?
**[00:53] Satou**
Yeah.
**[01:09] Saphir**
This armor... belongs to imperial soldiers.
**[01:12] Saphir**
They must have fought the monsters here.
**[01:15] Granart**
They couldn't even bury their dead?
**[01:18] Granart**
Just how intense was the fighting?
**[01:21] Nef**
It's possible this world is already...
**[01:29] Satou**
What's wrong?
**[01:39] Soldier**
Go!
**[01:41] Granart**
The Imperial Army!
**[01:42] Granart**
There are some still engaged in combat?!
**[01:45] Hime**
Satou, over there!
**[01:48] Hime**
Satou?
**[01:51] Satou**
Yeah.
**[01:52] Satou**
I know.
**[01:56] Satou**
The Abyss King.
**[03:45] Amber**
If you go down through here, you'll come out
on the flank of the monster horde.
**[03:50] Amber**
You'll be able to catch
the Abyss King by surprise.
**[03:52] Satou**
Yeah.
**[03:53] Hime**
Satou.
**[03:54] Satou**
Don't worry.
**[03:56] Satou**
We have all the rings.
**[03:58] Satou**
I have everyone's power.
**[04:00] Satou**
This is sooner than we expected,
**[04:03] Satou**
but this is what we returned home for.
**[04:09] Saphir**
Please, Ring King.
**[04:11] Saphir**
I'm betting everything on you.
**[04:14] Nef**
I'm sure you'll be fine, Satou-sama.
**[04:18] Satou**
Yeah.
**[04:21] Granart**
We're counting on you, Ring King.
**[04:31] Hime**
Satou.
**[04:42] Hime**
I'll be waiting, okay?
**[04:47] Satou**
All right.
**[04:49] Satou**
I'll be going.
**[05:16] AbyssKing**
You're here,
**[05:19] AbyssKing**
Inheritor of the Rings?
**[05:35] Ring**
You've done well to make it this far.
**[05:38] Ring**
Boy, new King,
**[05:41] Ring**
I'll unite your power.
**[05:53] Satou**
Wow...
**[06:05] Ring**
This time, hold nothing back.
**[06:55] Hime**
He did it!
**[06:58] Granart**
No.
**[07:04] Satou**
No way...
**[07:07] Ring**
How?!
**[07:09] Ring**
The Rings are the manifestation
of the world's order.
**[07:13] Ring**
The Abyss is supposed to perish,
**[07:15] Ring**
and the world is supposed to be saved...
**[07:21] Satou**
Does this mean... I'm not good enough?!
**[07:26] Hime**
Satou!
**[07:30] AbyssKing**
Inheritor of the Rings.
**[07:33] AbyssKing**
So, you are another ignorant puppet?
**[07:37] Saphir**
Oh, no!
**[07:39] Saphir**
No, this can't be!
**[07:41] Saphir**
What about our duty?!
**[07:44] Saphir**
What happened to the legends?!
**[07:47] Granart**
I'm going!
**[07:48] Granart**
We can't afford to lose Satou here!
**[07:58] Amber**
Don't worry.
**[08:00] Amber**
I won't let him die.
**[08:07] Satou**
So, it really is possible to be unable
to move a single finger...
**[08:16] AbyssKing**
Return to the Abyss.
**[08:43] AbyssKing**
Women of the Rings...
**[08:47] Satou**
Everyone? Why are you here?
**[08:51] Granart**
You think we'd just abandon you?!
**[09:26] Satou**
Granart!
**[09:29] Granart**
Damn it! Let me go!
**[09:45] Granart**
Tsk! There are too many.
**[10:02] Hime**
Satou!
**[10:02] Nef**
Satou-sama!
**[10:04] Satou**
Everyone...
**[10:06] Satou**
I'm sorry.
**[10:07] Hime**
Satou!
**[10:12] Satou**
Hime!
**[10:35] Hime**
Good morning, Satou.
**[10:40] Satou**
Hime...
**[10:42] Satou**
Good morning.
**[10:51] Priest**
Do you promise to love and to cherish
one another, in sickness and in health?
**[11:00] Satou**
I do.
**[12:02] Satou**
Grandpa?
**[12:04] Alabaster**
You're awake, Satou-kun?
**[12:07] Satou**
Oh... I guess I died?
**[12:11] Alabaster**
What are you saying?
**[12:14] Alabaster**
We haven't died yet.
**[12:18] Satou**
What's this?
**[12:20] Granart**
Alabaster-dono saved us.
**[12:23] Granart**
That's the Great Sage for you.
**[12:25] Alabaster**
What are you saying?
**[12:27] Alabaster**
I'm not that great.
**[12:28] Alabaster**
Creating an opening and getting
you all away from the Abyss King
**[12:32] Alabaster**
was the best I could manage.
**[12:36] Alabaster**
We really do need the
Ring King's power, after all.
**[12:41] Satou**
Oh, yeah! If you're safe,
then that means Marse-san is...!
**[12:45] Alabaster**
Prince Marse is safe, too, yes.
**[12:50] Alabaster**
It's all thanks to this one.
**[12:55] Satou**
You're...
**[12:57] Smaragdi**
It's been a while, Ring King.
**[13:00] Smaragdi**
I'm from Wind's royal family of Romca,
**[13:02] Smaragdi**
Smaragdi Romca.
**[13:05] Alabaster**
Thanks to Smaragdi,
**[13:08] Alabaster**
we managed to escape from
the Abyss Monsters that surrounded us.
**[13:15] Smaragdi**
I've been watching over
Alabaster-sama for a while.
**[13:20] Smaragdi**
However, once he was faced with danger...
**[13:22] Smaragdi**
I couldn't sit still.
**[13:25] Smaragdi**
Because of that,
I was able to aid Alabaster-sama.
**[13:30] Smaragdi**
Alabaster-sama gave my life
such wonderful meaning.
**[13:36] Smaragdi**
To me, he truly is my one...
**[13:43] Alabaster**
The monsters have withdrawn.
**[13:46] Alabaster**
I believe the Abyss King
has suffered a serious wound, too.
**[13:50] Satou**
I guess I at least had some effect.
**[13:53] Alabaster**
What are you saying?
**[13:55] Alabaster**
It was wonderfully effective.
**[13:57] Alabaster**
We couldn't even get
a single arrow to pierce him.
**[14:03] Alabaster**
You've done well, Satou-kun.
**[14:07] Granart**
Great Sage, what is the overall situation like?
**[14:13] Alabaster**
Shortly after you left,
**[14:14] Alabaster**
the Abyss King's forces
commenced their invasion,
**[14:19] Alabaster**
and the Imperial Army halted their advance
at the Great Mountain Wall.
**[14:23] Alabaster**
I assisted, but...
**[14:25] Alabaster**
there was little we could do
other than run away.
**[14:29] Saphir**
And Maasa?!
**[14:30] Saphir**
What happened to Maasa?!
**[14:32] Alabaster**
Each nation is fighting in different locations.
**[14:37] Alabaster**
Maasa is safe.
**[14:39] Alabaster**
Prince Marse is there, as well.
**[14:42] Alabaster**
Though the number of monsters
just keeps going up, not down.
**[14:48] Alabaster**
The situation is steadily worsening.
**[14:51] Alabaster**
I'm really glad we didn't give up hope.
**[14:55] Alabaster**
I'm glad you all made it back!
**[14:59] Smaragdi**
Alabaster-sama, it's almost dawn.
**[15:02] Alabaster**
The Ring King has returned.
**[15:05] Alabaster**
All the princesses are together, too.
**[15:08] Alabaster**
The morning sun is full of hope.
**[15:18] Citizen**
The Ring King has returned!
**[15:21] Citizen**
All five princesses are with him!
**[15:26] Girl**
I was told I couldn't go outside
because there's lots of monsters.
**[15:29] Girl**
But it'll be okay now that
you're back, right, Ring King?
**[15:34] Satou**
Yeah, leave it to me.
**[15:38] Satou**
I'll save this world!
**[15:44] Alabaster**
Now, we need to talk about what's to come.
**[15:48] Saphir**
Before that, I'd like to hear your excuse.
**[15:52] Saphir**
I thought we were supposed
to be able to defeat the Abyss King
**[15:55] Saphir**
once the Rings were collected?
***SIGN*** STARE...
**[16:00] Satou**
Grandpa, be honest with me.
**[16:03] Satou**
Was my power not enough?
**[16:05] Alabaster**
I have one idea as to why you
weren't able to defeat the Abyss King.
**[16:12] Alabaster**
There was not one mention of
the Black Rings that the Abyss King wore.
**[16:19] Amber**
Black Rings?
**[16:21] Satou**
They looked just like this, only black.
**[16:25] Amber**
That's not in my records.
**[16:27] Amber**
The dwarves didn't know about that, either.
**[16:30] Alabaster**
Still, even in multiple sources,
**[16:34] Alabaster**
it's certain that the Ring King
sealed away the Abyss King.
**[16:38] Alabaster**
However, we don't know how much
power was required to do so.
**[16:43] Saphir**
Then what are you saying we should do?
**[16:46] Alabaster**
There's only one thing we can do.
**[16:49] Alabaster**
We have to draw out even more of
the Rings' power before our next battle!
**[16:53] Alabaster**
Which means Satou-kun needs to strengthen his
bonds with the Ring Princesses even further.
**[16:59] Hime**
Even stronger bonds... Does that mean...?
**[17:02] Granart**
Baby making!
**[17:04] Alabaster**
Well, that's one option.
**[17:06] Hime**
It is?!
**[17:08] Marse**
Satou-kun!
**[17:09] Satou**
Marse-san!
**[17:11] Satou**
What are you doing here?!
**[17:12] Marse**
I received word that you
had returned, and came at once.
**[17:17] Marse**
I wanted to see you as soon as possible.
**[17:21] Alabaster**
Now, moving on to the main topic.
**[17:26] Alabaster**
It's said that the Ring Princesses stood
alongside the Ring King in battle long ago.
**[17:33] Alabaster**
In order to draw out the Rings' power,
**[17:36] Alabaster**
both the will to fight alongside him
**[17:38] Alabaster**
and the strength to carry out
that will may be required.
**[17:43] Granart**
Strength, huh?
**[17:45] Granart**
Saphir, Amber, and I may be fine there...
**[17:48] Nef**
But we're not very helpful.
**[17:50] Alabaster**
So, on that note,
**[17:52] Alabaster**
we'll have everyone acquire the strength
that befits a wife of the Ring King!
**[17:57] Alabaster**
That's right, this training...
**[18:02] Alabaster**
is wife training!
**[18:11] Maid**
This will be your room, Ring King.
**[18:15] Maid**
The Princesses are already waiting for you.
**[18:29] Granart**
Satou, once again, you made up your mind
to fight to save this world for our sakes.
**[18:34] Nef**
So I believe we should
steel our resolve, as well.
**[18:39] Amber**
Ring King, replenish your energy
as much as you need.
**[18:43] Granart**
Now, choose the woman you'd like!
**[18:45] Granart**
Of course, you're welcome
to choose all of us at once!
**[18:48] Satou**
Huh?
**[18:50] Granart**
What's the matter?
Isn't a harem every man's dream?!
**[18:53] Saphir**
Look at what you're doing.
You're troubling the Ring King.
**[18:59] Saphir**
This is the problem with beastmen
who can't read the mood.
**[19:02] Granart**
What?!
***SIGN*** SNAP
**[19:03] Granart**
What did you say?!
**[19:05] Granart**
That's big talk from the shorty
who fell behind her little sister!
**[19:07] Saphir**
Huh?! Saphira has nothing to do with this!
**[19:09] Granart**
What? Did I hit the mark?
You're raising your voice so much.
**[19:13] Saphir**
I am not!
**[19:20] Hime**
Bridal training, huh?
**[19:22] Satou**
You sound happy.
**[19:24] Hime**
Huh? Not particularly.
**[19:26] Hime**
You've been working
so hard for us this whole time,
**[19:29] Hime**
so it's my turn to work hard, too.
**[19:37] Satou**
Is that...?
**[19:39] Hime**
Yeah.
**[19:43] Hime**
In my real family, I had a father,
a mother, and a little sister.
**[19:49] Hime**
My little sister remained in this world,
**[19:52] Hime**
so I haven't seen her in ten years now.
**[19:56] Hime**
My parents are here.
**[19:59] Hime**
Father, Mother, I'm home.
**[20:05] Hime**
It happened when I was little.
**[20:07] Hime**
So I only vaguely remember
what they looked like,
**[20:10] Hime**
but they both risked their lives to protect me.
**[20:20] Hime**
This man...
**[20:22] Hime**
is my husband.
**[20:26] Hime**
Thank you, Satou.
**[20:28] Hime**
I was able to return here, thanks to you.
**[20:36] Alabaster**
Krystal.
**[20:38] Hime**
Grandpa?! How long have you been there?!
**[20:41] Amber**
Since, "Father, Mother, I'm home."
**[20:45] Hime**
That's basically the whole time!
**[20:47] Nef**
I don't think it's anything
to be embarrassed about.
**[20:50] Nef**
I think it was a lovely story.
**[20:53] Alabaster**
By the way, about your magic training.
**[20:56] Hime**
Yeah, I'll do my best!
**[20:58] Hime**
I'm counting on you!
**[20:59] Alabaster**
No, it won't be me.
**[21:02] Alabaster**
I've summoned a teacher
more appropriate for you, Krystal.
**[21:06] Alabaster**
I wanted to let you know,
since they should be arriving soon.
**[21:13] Granart**
What?!
**[21:28] Morion**
Hmm, so you're...
**[21:31] Morion**
You're not too bad.
**[21:38] Morion**
I'm Morion Ravri Nokanatika.
**[21:43] Morion**
Glad to see you,
**[21:45] Morion**
Sister.
**[21:47] Morion**
And...
**[21:49] Morion**
Brother.
**[21:52] Nef**
Brother?
**[21:54] Satou**
Morion Ravri Nokanatika?
**[22:01] Satou**
You're Hime's little sister?!
