[00:07] Zero     Your eyes [00:09] Zero     are the same as mine, young man. [00:15] Saybil     ...who she is... [00:20] Zero     Come. [00:21] Zero     I shall take you to a world     befitting of you. [00:28] Saybil     ...or who I am. SIGN    Three Years Later SIGN    Kingdom of Wenias Royal Academy of Magic [00:37] Guy     It's a summons. [00:39] Girl     Who's this "Saybil?" [00:40] Guy     You know. That gloomy, mysterious guy. [00:43] Guy     To see the Headmaster? [00:45] Girl     What does that mean? [00:47] Kudo     A summons? What did he do? [00:50] Student A (male)     Well, you know he has the worst     grades in the academy— [00:54] Student A (male)     It's probably to tell him he's expelled. [00:58] Hort     What's all this? What's the fuss about? [01:00] Student B (female)     A student has been summoned     to the Headmaster's office. [01:04] Hort     A summons? What for? [01:07] Student B (female)     Who knows? But they say     Headmaster Albus is super scary. [01:11] Student B (female)     Poor dude. [01:15] Los     Hear me! Come out, Albus! [01:19] Los     Wilt thou open thy door?! [01:21] Los     Dost thou truly not hear me? [01:25] Los     If so, I look quite the fool. [01:28] Los     'Tis worse than being ignored! [01:30] Los     Hey! [01:32] Los     I know thou art there! [01:34] Saybil     Um... [01:36] Los     What's this? A student of the academy? [01:39] Los     What business hast thou with me,     promising young man? SIGN    Lowest-ranked student in his year [01:43] Saybil     Promising? Me? [01:48] Los     As is plain to see, I am quite busy. [01:51] Los     Begone. [01:53] Saybil     The Headmaster summoned me. [01:55] Los     What? [01:57] Los     How splendid. A port in the storm! [02:00] Los     I welcome thee! [02:03] Los     Come! Quickly! Do open the door! [02:06] Saybil     Um, but... [02:08] Saybil     ...the Headmaster didn't call     for you, correct? [02:12] Saybil     If I let you in, I'll get in trouble. [02:17] Los     Sound reasoning. [02:18] Los     I am fond of sound reasoning. [02:21] Los     Very well. [02:24] Los     In that case, [02:26] Los     this is mine answer! [02:30] Saybil     My dear Ludens, say hello! [02:38] Los     Now, cry out! Beg for thy life! [02:41] Los     A precious student's life is at stake. [02:44] Los     Not even Albus would ignore this! [02:46] Holdem     Now, see here! [02:48] Holdem     Loux Krystas! [02:50] Holdem     Y-You wretch! Step away from that student! [02:57] Los     My, my. [02:59] Los     What have we here? [03:01] Los     The third-rate servant. How time has flown by. [03:04] Holdem     Can it! You're nothing but trouble     every time you show up! [03:09] Los     I have business with Albus. [03:12] Holdem     Go back to your lair! [03:17] Los     Impossible! [03:28] Los     Don't touch it! [03:28] Holdem     Stop! [03:29] Holdem     You got a death wish? [03:36] Los     M-My staff! [03:39] Los     Holdem, thou fiend! [03:41] Los     Thou darest kick dear Ludens,     treasure of my lineage! [03:46] Los     Know that this merits a thousand deaths! [03:49] Holdem     What a tired line. [03:50] Los     How mean! [03:56] Albus     Holdem, what is all this racket abou— [04:01] Albus     Loux Krystas! [04:04] Albus     How did you get into the academy? [04:07] Los     How? [04:10] Los     Why, with cuteness. [05:43] Los     What is this? [05:45] Los     Thou didst not serve me tea,     third-rate servant! [05:47] Holdem     There is no tea for intruders. SIGN    Episode 1     The Remedial Student and the Witch of the Staff [05:49] Los     How mean! [05:50] Los     I want tea, too! And tea cakes! [05:52] Saybil     A special field program? [05:54] Saybil     I'm not expelled? [05:55] Albus     Correct. [05:56] Albus     I can't see you progressing     within the academy. [06:00] Albus     So, I aim to develop you     in a different environment. [06:05] Saybil     A different environment? [06:08] Albus     The Church and witches were at war until      five years ago. You learned that, correct? [06:13] Saybil     Yes. And that there are still     witch hunts in the south. [06:17] Albus     Why do you think that is? [06:20] Albus     What caused the end of witch hunts     here in the Kingdom of Wenias? [06:25] Saybil     I believe the greatest factor     was the war ten years ago. [06:31] Saybil     It was the evil sorcerer Thirteen. [06:33] Saybil     Ten years ago, [06:36] Saybil     he caused a war by spreading     magic throughout the kingdom... [06:41] Saybil     to end the persecution of witches     and create a place in the world for them. [06:47] Albus     You've done your homework. [06:49] Albus     And that sorcerer was executed. [06:52] Albus     I saw it done. [06:55] Saybil     I, um... [06:56] Albus     Don't be nervous. You were correct. [07:00] Albus     Thirteen's methods were wrong, [07:03] Albus     but the war brought magic into wide use, [07:05] Albus     and it greatly changed the world's     view of witches. There's no denying it. [07:11] Albus     Though it can take decades to master magic, [07:14] Albus     anyone with a talent for it     can use it within a few years. [07:18] Albus     Thirteen made that known to the world. [07:22] Albus     That's why I created this academy, [07:24] Albus     to administrate the spread of magic. [07:28] Albus     The school has only been      around for four years, [07:30] Albus     but magic is already integrated     into daily life in the kingdom. [07:35] Albus     In the south, though, witches and mages     are unusual and still seen as "other." [07:39] Los     I said I want tea! And cakes! [07:41] Holdem     Let go! [07:43] Albus     Holdem, let her have tea to shut her up. [07:49] Los     Yum yummy nummy! [07:51] Albus     Thus, I have decided to create     a witch village in the south. [07:56] Albus     A village where witches are treated     as normal people, not others. [08:00] Albus     I want you to serve as a mage there. [08:06] Albus     If after three years the      supervisor deems you unfit, [08:11] Albus     you will have all memory of magic     and the academy sealed away. [08:17] Saybil     Th-Three years... [08:18] Los     Oh, thought this through, haven't thou? [08:21] Los     This provides thy student with training [08:24] Los     and at the same time uses him     to expand thy influence! [08:28] Los     Very well! [08:29] Los     I am fond of efficiency. [08:31] Los     The journey to this      village is treacherous. [08:34] Los     I, Loux Krystas, the Dawn Witch, shall bring     my 300 years of experience to the job! [08:40] Albus     No, you see, I already arranged     for a witch escort... [08:44] Los     I sent that witch away. [08:48] Albus     Excuse me? [08:49] Los     Behold, the commission letter. [08:51] Los     She gladly accepted my offer     to switch jobs and left. [08:59] Albus     Are you daft?! [09:01] Albus     This is why witches drive me mad! [09:03] Albus     Every one of them, selfish! Decadent!     No spirit of cooperation! [09:07] Los     So hyperbolic. Am I not     offering to cooperate? [09:11] Los     All I require is permission to peruse [09:14] Los     the world's first manual on magic,     The Grimoire of Zero. [09:18] Saybil     The Grimoire of Zero... [09:20] Albus     I've told you a thousand times.     That is a forbidden text. [09:24] Albus     Permission cannot be granted. [09:27] Los     Thy justification is that the tome     is dangerous, no? [09:29] Los     That one could destroy the world with it? [09:32] Los     I harbor, however, no fondness     for causing suffering. [09:36] Albus     You will receive no special     treatment. That's final. [09:41] Albus     But... [09:42] Albus     ...yes. [09:45] Albus     I could let you meet     the author of the grimoire. [09:48] Los     Th-The Mud-Black Witch?! [09:51] Holdem     But my lady! That's... [09:54] Albus     I can arrange a meeting, [09:56] Albus     but I cannot guarantee     she'll talk about magic. [10:00] Albus     You might not even recognize     that it's her when you meet. [10:05] Los     I am Loux Krystas, the Dawn Witch! [10:08] Los     I shan't be fooled by any disguise! SIGN    Entrance to the Southern Tunnel (Witch Gallows) [10:15] Los     Over here! [10:17] Los     Right here! [10:20] Saybil     Thank goodness. [10:21] Los     What? Is this your first trip     outside the kingdom? [10:24] Hort     Oh, I found you! I'm not too late! [10:30] Hort     You're going to the village     field program, right? [10:32] Hort     I'm Hort! [10:34] Hort     I'm a fourth-year student.     One year ahead of you! [10:36] Hort     I'll be coming with you! [10:38] Saybil     Huh? But aren't you...? [10:40] Hort     You're Professor Los, right?     A pleasure to meet you. [10:43] Los     Oh, "professor," eh? [10:46] Kudo     I ain't goin' with you. [10:48] Kudo     I'm a seasoned traveler.     I don't need an escort. [10:52] Saybil     Kudo. [10:54] Kudo     I'll be taking these two with me.     To the village. [10:59] Los     You came just to decline mine     escort? How conscientious. [11:04] Kudo     I just didn't want my grades to be docked! [11:08] Los     Ah, I see. A coward, then. [11:12] Kudo     Shut up! [11:13] Saybil     Wow. He's blushing. [11:15] Kudo     No, I'm angry! [11:18] Kudo     Tell me something, Saybil. [11:20] Kudo     What's the worst student in school     doing in the special program? [11:25] Saybil     Good question. Everyone else     has excellent grades. [11:29] Student 1     C'mon, Kudo! [11:31] Student 2     Let's get moving! [11:34] Kudo     Since you understand you don't belong,     go back to the academy and drop out. [11:40] Kudo     For your own good. [11:42] Hort     What's his problem? [11:45] Hort     As a beastfallen, doesn't he know     to at least soften his attitude? [11:50] Saybil     I don't expect him to. [11:52] Hort     Huh? [11:53] Saybil     It seems wrong to hold     beastfallen to separate standards. [11:57] Saybil     He's practically honest to a fault,     and I find that reassuring. [12:05] Hort     Sayb, you're so cool! [12:07] Saybil     Huh? [12:08] Hort     You helped me change the way I think! [12:12] Los     Come. Time to go. [12:14] Hort     Yes, ma'am! [12:20] Los     We must pass through the tunnel     and find a carriage at once, [12:23] Los     and then reach an inn before sunset. [12:26] Saybil     What is it, Hort? [12:28] Hort     Oh, nothing! [12:29] Hort     Professor Los! [12:31] Hort     Are you hungry? [12:33] Los     Here. 'Tis hot. [12:37] Hort     Professor? [12:38] Hort     Did you just feed your staff a skewer?! [12:41] Los     Sure. 'Tis a perfectly normal occurrence. [12:44] Hort     N-No, it isn't! [12:46] Hort     Wait, is your staff...? [12:49] Los     Indeed, the Staff of Ludens.     The witch eater, just as thou fearest. [12:55] Hort     I knew it! [12:56] Hort     When someone touches it, it consumes     their magic and kills them, right? [13:00] Saybil     Oh... [13:02] Saybil     That's why they stopped me... [13:04] Hort     You tried to touch it? [13:06] Saybil     I mean, Professor Los     was handling it no problem. [13:08] Hort     Oh, that's true. [13:11] Hort     So it doesn't necessarily kill you, then. [13:15] Los     No, it does. [13:18] Los     We formed a pact. [13:20] Los     Even with my magic fully depleted,     Ludens keeps me alive. [13:24] Los     My dear Ludens and I      are one in body and soul! [13:28] Los     Oh, my dear, sweet Ludens! [13:31] Hort     Sayb, that's my skewer! [13:33] Saybil     What? [13:34] Saybil     Oh. S-Sorry. [13:38] Hort     I set it aside and everything! Spit it up! [13:41] Los     I don't see why thou     wouldst eat spat-up food. [13:45] Hort     Th-That's not the issue! [13:48] Hort     Oh, jeez! [13:49] Hort     Don't blame me if you get a tummy ache! [13:55] Hort     S-Sayb! [13:57] Los     'Tis an extraordinary level     of motion sickness. [14:01] Los     Here. I shall lend thee     my favorite handkerchief. [14:04] Saybil     Th-Thank you. [14:08] Saybil     I was totally fine the last time     I rode in a carriage. [14:12] Hort     Professor! Sayb is gonna die! [14:15] Los     I get it. Calm down. [14:17] Los     Driver! [14:19] Los     Stop the carriage. We need     to get off to prevent a casualty. [14:30] Saybil     W-Wow. [14:32] Saybil     That's Solm, right? [14:35] Saybil     You can already cast it     without an incantation. [14:37] Saybil     No wonder you're the top student. [14:40] Hort     What? Y-You knew? [14:43] Saybil     Yeah. You're famous. [14:45] Saybil     Sorry you're stuck with me... [14:47] Hort     Huh? [14:49] Hort     It's not like I'm perfect     at everything myself. [14:52] Saybil     You're smart and nice. Wow. [14:57] Hort     I'm not all that nice. [15:01] Hort     I'm just well-practiced. [15:04] Hort     See? Check out this smile! [15:10] Saybil     You look so cute. [15:11] Hort     I do, don't I? Very candid, Sayb! [15:14] Hort     That's my special skill. [15:16] Hort     If you keep smiling, it's easier     to get people to like you. [15:20] Hort     Before I entered the academy, [15:22] Hort     I couldn't even get decent     meals without smiling. [15:26] Hort     But I guess all the kids who chose     to attend had issues, right? [15:32] Hort     Especially the teenage students like us... [15:35] Hort     We wanted the power to change things... [15:40] Hort     What about you, Sayb? Got a story, too? [15:43] Saybil     I... [15:44] Saybil     don't remember anything     before the academy. [15:47] Hort     What? [15:49] Saybil     I don't even remember     taking the entrance exam. [15:51] Saybil     If I'm expelled, I'll lose     my memories of the academy, too. [15:55] Saybil     Then I'll truly be empty... [15:58] Saybil     So, I have no choice but to become a mage. [16:02] Saybil     And yet I can barely even— [16:04] Los     'Tis quite a passive reason,     "I have no choice." [16:10] Saybil     Professor Los... [16:12] Hort     Professor, your staff! [16:14] Hort     Are you using the Staff of Ludens as a pot?! [16:17] Los     Don't put it so rudely! [16:20] Los     I am simply having my dear     Ludens carry water for me. [16:24] Los     Now, what were you saying? [16:26] Saybil     Huh? [16:27] Saybil     Well, um... [16:29] Saybil     I can barely cast magic at all. [16:35] Los     Your spells get out of control? [16:37] Saybil     Yes. [16:38] Saybil     But when I try to restrain them,     I can't cast at all. [16:42] Los     I see. Perhaps Kudo spoke true.     'Twould be best to quit. [16:49] Los     Nothing is more dangerous     than casting without control. [16:54] Saybil     But after three years of practice,     I can cast a few spells. [16:59] Los     So thy intent is to expand thy repertoire     through years of diligent training? [17:05] Saybil     Is that... not enough? [17:07] Los     I would not say that. [17:09] Los     The path, however, may well be harsher     than losing thy memories. [17:13] Los     Magic is a new art.     Some will fear and detest it. [17:18] Los     If mages repel that malice with violence,     their reputation will plummet to the ground. [17:25] Los     But not fighting back means     being tortured to death. [17:28] Los     'Tis a valid option to forget everything     and start a new life, in my opinion. [17:35] Los     Now, then. It should be ready now. [17:39] Hort     But for a witch to eat a meal made     with the witch-eating staff... [17:44] Hort     Doesn't it kinda feel like cannibalism? [17:46] Los     No! [17:48] Los     Thou madest me imagine it momentarily! [17:53] Underling 1     We found the academy brats,     just as the informant said. [18:00] the Tyrant     Which group seems tougher? [18:03] Underling 1     One group had a lizard beastfallen. [18:06] the Tyrant     A beastfallen studying magic? [18:08] the Tyrant     How cute. That's funny. [18:10] the Tyrant     The monsters the witches      used for sacrifices [18:14] the Tyrant     are gonna cast magic themselves now? [18:17] Underling 1     Let's start with the beastfallen, then. [18:19] the Tyrant     Yeah. I'll crush him. [18:22] the Tyrant     We gotta teach the trash     of Wenias once and for all... [18:28] the Tyrant     There ain't gonna be no peace     between the Church and witches! [18:36] the Tyrant     Gather everyone and lay the traps! [18:40] the Tyrant     The lizard hunt begins! [18:44] Los     My, my. Not quite on schedule,     but we made it to the inn. [18:50] Hort     Yummy... [18:54] Saybil     You sure have a big appetite, Hort. [18:56] Hort     N-No I don't! [18:58] Los     Most mages are big eaters. [19:02] Los     It comes from an effort     to recover lost magic through food. [19:07] Saybil     I don't eat that much, though. [19:09] Los     Thou art an exception.     As are witches with no magic like me. [19:14] Los     Thus, [19:15] Los     when witch hunters spot     a slender-figured big eater, [19:19] Los     they always take note. [19:21] Hort     You should've said that earlier! [19:25] Student 2     That darned Kudo. [19:27] Student 1     For real. [19:28] Student 1     That asshole— [19:30] Student 1     Oh? [19:31] Student 1     Saybil. [19:32] Student 1     Thank goodness. You went     with the escorting professor, right? [19:36] Student 2     We were attacked by thieves last night. [19:39] Student 1     We were considering     returning to the academy. [19:43] Hort     What? Your stuff was stolen? [19:45] Student 1     No. Kudo ran off alone with the map! [19:49] Saybil     Kudo did that? Really? [19:52] Student 2     Excuse me? It's true. He ran off. [19:57] Los     How strange. [19:59] Los     Kudo ran away and you two     are unharmed. Nothing stolen. [20:05] Los     Looks aside, you're young men. [20:09] Los     If captured, you'd fetch a price. [20:11] Los     The logical target is you two, not Kudo. [20:15] Los     But since you two are here unharmed,     they chased after Kudo. [20:21] Los     Why? [20:22] Student 1     Don't ask me! [20:24] Student 2     Kudo called us dead weight! [20:27] Student 1     He shouted that small fry who can't cast     aren't even worth protecting. [20:32] Los     Ah, the answer is clear: [20:34] Los     witch hunters. [20:39] Los     Kudo noticed immediately, [20:42] Los     asserting unnecessarily loudly     that he was the only mage. [20:44] Los     He made sure his academy     buddies could escape. [20:50] Los     'Twas brute courage,     foolhardy though it was. [20:56] Saybil     Kudo once told me... [20:59] Saybil     He said he entered     the academy to protect people. [21:04] Saybil     One time I fell behind in class     and was being bullied. [21:11] Saybil     He protected me then, too. [21:14] Saybil     He's not a bad guy. [21:17] Los     I shall go. [21:19] Los     'Twas my error to permit him     to travel separately. [21:25] Saybil     I'll go with you! [21:26] Hort     M-Me, too! [21:27] Los     No. [21:29] Los     Against witch hunters, fledgling     mages would only get in the way. [21:34] Saybil     But... [21:35] Los     Silence! [21:37] Los     You will do as I say and wait here! [21:42] Hort     She left us behind. [21:44] Saybil     Yeah. [21:45] Hort     But I can't just sit here and wait. [21:48] Saybil     Yeah... [21:50] Hort     Which means! [21:51] Hort     It's time to use the handkerchief Professor     Los gave you when you were barfing! [21:57] Hort     I'll scry for her location! [22:01] Saybil     Hort, you're a little too excited     about breaking the rules. [22:23] Hort     Found her! [22:27] Saybil     You're accurately tracking     a moving target. You're incredible. [22:34] Hort     Still, I can't believe those two. [22:37] (Flashback) Student 2     You want us to look for Kudo?! [22:39] (Flashback) Student 1     Hell no! I'm not getting      expelled over this. [22:43] (Flashback) Student 1     Not for a beastfallen! [22:47] Hort     They're the worst! [22:49] Saybil     If you'd asked with a smile,     I think they would have agreed. [22:53] Hort     I only force a smile for      people I deem worthy! [22:58] Saybil     But you smile at me. [23:02] Hort     Actually, around you,     I just get naturally smiley! [23:07] Hort     I'm not forcing it! [23:09] Hort     That probably means... [23:12] Hort     I think I must like you, Sayb! [23:15] Saybil     What?! [23:17] Hort     Did you just go, "What?!" [23:19] Saybil     Sorry. I didn't expect that. [23:21] Hort     Uh... [23:22] Hort     Don't misunderstand me!     I like you as a friend, okay? [23:26] Saybil     That's still a surprise to me... [23:33] Saybil     What is it? [23:34] Hort     S-Sayb, look... [23:45] Saybil and Hort     Kudo! [23:48] Saybil     Did he let his tail take the fall? [23:50] Hort     Sayb!

[00:18] Hort     Do you think Kudo died? [00:21] Saybil     I would guess that Kudo can regrow his tail. [00:27] Hort     We should take it with us, right? [00:30] Hort     His tail... [00:33] Hort     It's cold and slippery... [00:36] Hort     I don't hate it. [00:40] Saybil     Hort, look. [00:41] Saybil     On the ground. [00:44] ---     These are... [00:46] Saybil     Three sets of footprints. [00:48] Saybil     One is Kudo, and one is Professor Los. [00:52] Saybil     The last one is the witch hunter. [00:54] Saybil     I think. [00:56] Hort     But that means... there's only one enemy. [01:01] Hort     And yet, even with the advantage of magic,      Kudo chose to flee rather than fight. [01:07] Hort     It might be best to turn back. [01:10] Hort     This is probably a professional. [01:12] Saybil     A professional? [01:14] Hort     Remember from class? [01:17] Hort     The former death-row inmates,      recruited by the Church to hunt witches. [01:22] Hort     It's an Arbiter from Dia Ignis! [02:59] Hort     They'll stop at nothing to kill a witch. SIGN    Episode 2     Don't Call Me a Traitor [03:04] Hort     They don't care how many     innocent people may die. [03:07] Hort     That's how they've been trained. [03:10] Saybil     But Dia Ignis was dismantled. [03:13] Hort     Just because the organization is gone     doesn't mean the people in it went away, too! [03:19] Saybil     Hort... [03:24] Underling 1     Damn! Where'd he go? [03:26] Underling 2     We need to find him, fast! [03:28] Underling 1     Hey! [03:28] Underling 2     Oh, right. That was close. [03:31] Underling 1     Let's go! [03:34] Kudo     I hope those two got away safely. [03:40] The Tyrant     Now, where are they hiding? [03:46] Student 2     Kudo. [03:47] Student 1     They're gonna find us... [03:50] (Flashback) Kudo     Small fry who can't cast     aren't even worth protecting. [03:54] (Flashback) Student 1     H-Hey! [03:57] (Flashback) Kudo     Don't follow me. You're dead weight! [04:03] Kudo     What is that rope? [04:11] Kudo     A freaking trap?! [04:22] Hort     I've met one before. [04:26] Hort     Just once, when I was little. [04:29] Hort     I went to a nearby village to see a friend. [04:33] Hort     That's when... [04:36] (Flashback) The Tyrant     Whad'ya want? Ya got a friend in this heap? [04:40] (Flashback) The Tyrant     If ya can't prove they're not a witch,      I'll have to burn you, too. [04:48] (Flashback) Hort     I-I have no... [04:53] (Flashback) Hort     friends here! [04:55] Hort     I ran away. [04:57] Hort     Even though my friend was killed,     I was scared... [05:01] Hort     I lied to protect myself... [05:05] Hort     If it was an Arbiter that attacked Kudo, [05:08] Hort     we'll be no help whatsoever! [05:11] Hort     So let's go back! [05:14] Hort     Sayb, was that...? [05:16] Saybil     Yeah. [05:19] Saybil     I think it'd be best to run. [05:21] Hort     Yeah. [05:23] Saybil     Professor Los might get mad if we show up. [05:26] Hort     Th-That's true. So let's— [05:29] Saybil     But... [05:30] Saybil     we have to help. [05:32] Hort     What? [05:33] Saybil     Hort, if your friend had still been alive,      I don't think you would've run. [05:38] Saybil     I'm sure you would've tried to     help while holding back tears, [05:41] Saybil     just like now. [05:44] Hort     Sayb... [05:55] Kudo     Damn it! [05:56] Kudo     I gotta get out of here. [06:05] Kudo     Hell, it was just a rope. [06:08] The Tyrant     So we meet again, lizard boy. [06:13] Kudo     The Dia Ignis Arbiter! [06:16] The Tyrant     The Church calls me the Tyrant. [06:20] The Tyrant     Ya fell right into 'em, huh? [06:22] The Tyrant     These simple traps. [06:24] The Tyrant     Are ya scared? [06:26] The Tyrant     Ya gotta be. [06:27] The Tyrant     Any step could set off a trap. [06:31] The Tyrant     Not knowing stops you in your tracks. [06:34] Kudo     My attack magic didn't work     on this guy yesterday, [06:38] Kudo     so I won't go on the offensive. [06:40] The Tyrant     You entered my hunting grounds. [06:46] Kudo     Solm! [06:56] The Tyrant     So you can run, eh, Mr. Lizard Mage? [07:00] Kudo     Impossible! [07:02] The Tyrant     Ya know, [07:04] The Tyrant     you're awfully slow! [07:13] The Tyrant     Huh. [07:15] The Tyrant     I guess being a beastfallen and a mage     don't necessarily mean you're strong. [07:21] The Tyrant     What's this? [07:22] The Tyrant     The wound is closed? [07:26] The Tyrant     I bet the Church's researchers     would love to have ya as a lab rat. [07:31] The Tyrant     Hey! One of you out there! [07:33] The Tyrant     Fetch me a cage! [07:39] Kudo     Why me? [07:41] Kudo     Why is it always me? [07:43] Kudo     After I managed to escape that place... [07:46] Kudo     After I've come so far...

[08:02] Kudo     I refuse to go back to living in a cage! [08:06] Kudo     I thought I'd become strong. [08:09] Kudo     I thought I could protect others. [08:11] Kudo     I can't even protect myself! [08:14] (Flashback) Kudo     I don't need an escort. [08:17] (Flashback) Albus     Listen, Kudo. The world can be harsh. [08:20] (Flashback) Albus     But you don't have to bear     the burden all on your own. [08:25] (Flashback) Kudo     Oh? Who's gonna shoulder it for me, then? [08:29] (Flashback) Albus     Remember this: [08:31] (Flashback) Albus     As long as you are a student     of my academy, I will not forsake you. [08:37] (Flashback) Albus     Loux Krystas is a little odd, [08:40] (Flashback) Albus     but she's a good witch. [08:43] Kudo     If I'd gone with them, would I— [08:47] Kudo     Would someone have chosen... [08:49] ---     to protect a guy like me? [08:55] The Tyrant     Hey. Ain't ya heard of futile resistance? [08:59] The Tyrant     Don't waste my time. [09:02] The Tyrant     Ya hear me? [09:09] The Tyrant     Well? Now do you underst— [09:12] The Tyrant     Hey, now.

[09:49] Los     Thy capital crimes were pardoned     when Dia Ignis was disbanded, [09:53] Los     but with no skills but     killing, thou wast destitute, [09:56] Los     and now servest the anti-witch faction? [09:59] Kudo     H-How come y-you're here? [10:02] Los     'Tis a teacher's duty. [10:04] Kudo     But... [10:06] Los     Silence! Just stand back! [10:08] The Tyrant     You... [10:10] The Tyrant     That staff... Is that the Staff of Ludens?! [10:13] Los     Indeed! [10:15] Los     For I am the pact-holder     of the Staff of Ludens, [10:19] Los     the Dawn Witch, Loux Krystas. [10:22] Los     And at the moment, I am a teacher     to the Magic Academy's ducklings! [10:35] Los     Back, murderous mad dog loosed     from the Church's chains! [10:43] The Tyrant     Damn it! [10:51] Kudo     I-Incredible! [10:54] Los     I harbor no fondness for conflict. [10:56] Los     Shouldst thou retreat now,     I shan't take thy life. [11:00] Saybil     Professor Los! [11:02] Los     That's not good. [11:04] Hort     Kudo! Where are you? [11:09] Hort     Professor Los! [11:11] Los     Why did you come? Flee! [11:18] Saybil     Look out. [11:23] The Tyrant     Let me thank you. [11:24] The Tyrant     So nice of you to show up. [11:27] Hort     S-Sayb! [11:29] The Tyrant     Don't move! [11:42] The Tyrant     I'll snap this twerp's neck! [11:44] The Tyrant     Got that, escorting professor? [11:49] Hort     P-Professor Los. [11:51] Los     What would that gain thee, Arbiter? [11:55] Los     The moment you end these children's lives, [11:58] Los     thy life shall end as well. [12:01] The Tyrant     This can end without all that killing.     Throw down your staff. [12:06] The Tyrant     If I can get the Staff of Ludens and [12:09] The Tyrant     its pact-holder in exchange     for letting the twerp go, [12:12] The Tyrant     then that's a bargain. [12:15] Los     I'm afraid I cannot afford that bargain. [12:19] The Tyrant     Then we all die together! [12:32] Los     Stop! [12:39] Los     There. Now unhand Sayb. [12:48] The Tyrant     Are you kidding? [12:50] The Tyrant     The pact-holder of the Staff of     Ludens is playing teacher for real? [12:56] Hort     Professor Los! Don't worry     about us. Just get him! [12:59] The Tyrant     Shut up! [13:01] The Tyrant     Listen good, Teach. Step away from the staff. [13:05] The Tyrant     Hey, stop lying there. [13:08] The Tyrant     Bring me that staff! [13:11] The Tyrant     Wrap it with this. [13:14] Saybil     B-But... [13:15] The Tyrant     It's special consecrated cloth. [13:18] The Tyrant     When wrapped in it, the Staff of     Ludens ain't nothin' but a stick. [13:29] The Tyrant     What'd I tell ya? [13:31] The Tyrant     Hey, tie up Teach over there, [13:34] The Tyrant     Hort. [13:38] The Tyrant     C'mon, missy. No need to resist. [13:42] The Tyrant     You can cut the act now. [13:45] The Tyrant     Go on. Tell 'em... [13:47] The Tyrant     that the Church sent     you to the Magic Academy [13:51] The Tyrant     as a spy for the anti-witch faction! [13:54] Hort     S-Stop! [13:58] Hort     I was called the child of a demon. [14:01] Hort     At a young age, I suddenly     started growing horns. [14:06] Hort     My mother told me... [14:08] (Flashback) Hort's Mother     Always keep a smile on your face. [14:11] (Flashback) Hort's Mother     Then you'll be saved. [14:14] (Flashback) Young Hort     Okay.

[14:22] (Flashback) Church Staff     Those horns are proof your     soul is tainted. Hide them. [14:27] (Flashback) Church Staff     It's for your own good. [14:30] (Flashback) Young Hort     Please let my soul be cleansed. [14:36] (Flashback) Young Hort     I promise to never stop smiling, [14:38] (Flashback) Young Hort     so let no one hate me. [14:41] (Flashback) Hort     A magic academy? [14:43] (Flashback) Church Staff     Yes. I want you to enroll there     and provide us information. [14:48] (Flashback) Hort     Um, what about after graduation? [14:51] (Flashback) Church Staff     You will maintain your cover as a mage. [14:53] (Flashback) Church Staff     Work for the Church's benefit,     striving to never be discovered. [14:58] (Flashback) Church Staff     I have great expectations. [14:59] (Flashback) Hort     Yes, sir! [15:01] (Flashback) School Friend 1 (female)     Wow, Hort! You got the highest grades again! [15:04] (Flashback) School Friend 2 (female)     You could be the top mage     in the kingdom one day. [15:07] (Flashback) Hort     You're too nice. [15:09] (Flashback) School Friend 3 (male)     What kind of job do you     want after you graduate? [15:11] (Flashback) Hort     What? Um... [15:15] (Flashback) Hort     Me? [15:16] (Flashback) Albus     The Magic Division of the Church & Mage     Army wants to recruit you after graduation. [15:21] (Flashback) Albus     Defending the kingdom is an important job. [15:26] (Flashback) Hort     Maybe I should reveal everything. [15:30] (Flashback) Hort     I want to become a mage. [15:33] (Flashback) Hort     But what do I do? [15:36] (Flashback) Hort     I really don't want to graduate. [15:39] (Flashback) Hort     A three-year special field program? [15:42] (Flashback) Albus     What do you think? [15:45] (Flashback) Hort     I-I'll do it! [15:49] (Flashback) Hort     Please let me participate! [15:53] Hort     I was so happy. [15:54] Hort     I could still study magic! [15:57] Hort     I'd feel like I belonged! [15:59] Hort     But in that moment, I had a bad feeling. [16:05] Hort     I didn't know a witch hunter     from the Church would show up. [16:09] Hort     If something happened,      I would have to betray everyone... [16:15] Hort     That's why I poisoned that skewer, [16:18] Hort     so I could eat it and throw     off our travel schedule. [16:24] (Flashback) Hort     Sayb, that's my skewer! [16:27] Hort     I hoped Kudo's group would get attacked. [16:32] Hort     I thought they'd be fine with Kudo there. [16:36] Hort     I never imagined an Arbiter would come...      that the Tyrant would come. [16:41] Hort     Kudo was attacked, and even Professor     Los and Sayb are in danger. [16:46] Hort     In the end, I'm a traitor. [16:50] Hort     I've been betraying     everyone this whole time. [16:53] Hort     It's all my fault. [16:58] Saybil     It's okay, Hort. [17:03] Saybil     It's not your fault. [17:07] Hort     How can he smile? [17:10] Hort     He's not even that good at it. [17:16] Hort     Now that he knows I'm a traitor... [17:20] (Flashback) Saybil     Hort, if your friend had still been alive,     I don't think you would've run. [17:25] Hort     ...he should be furious that I deceived him. [17:33] Hort     He ought... [17:36] Hort     to hate me. [17:37] The Tyrant     Hey. What're ya doin'? [17:42] Hort     I won't run anymore. [17:45] Hort     Bag Do Glaht!

[21:06] Los     Thy magic exceeded what my     dear Ludens could siphon away. [21:15] Hort     His magic was... [21:16] Kudo     ...too great for the staff?! [21:18] Los     Sayb's magic is evidently infinite. [21:22] Los     No wonder thou struggle     to control thy spells. [21:25] Los     Honestly. [21:26] Los     My dear Ludens had solely expended     magic these past 300 years. [21:31] ---     Now his belly is full again. [21:35] Los     When will my life come to an end now? [21:40] Los     Anyway. Kudo, thou wilt come with us. [21:44] Kudo     Huh? No, I'll be fine on my own. [21:47] Los     What was that? [21:49] Kudo     Ah! Your face is too close!

[00:18] Hort     You aren't suspicious? [00:20] Hort     That I might have lured      you to the Arbiter? [00:27] Saybil     I mean, you didn't, did you? [00:28] Hort     N-No, but... [00:33] Hort     Jeez, [00:34] Hort     Kudo and Professor Los don't     seem to doubt me, either. [00:37] Hort     You're all too nice! [00:39] Hort     It makes me worried about     the future of mages! [00:42] Saybil     I feel like "unconcerned" is      more accurate than "nice." [00:46] Hort     Be more concerned with other people! [00:49] Saybil     So you want to be blamed? [00:51] Hort     No, I just... [01:02] Hort     Feel right here. [01:05] Saybil     Is this an antler? [01:07] Hort     Because of my antlers,      I was called the child of a demon. [01:12] Hort     I grew up being told to serve the     Church to cleanse my tainted soul. [01:18] Saybil     That's awful. [01:20] Hort     But when I studied beastfallen     at the Academy, [01:24] ---     I realized I might be one. [01:27] Saybil     A beastfallen is... [01:28] Hort and Saybil     ..."what results when a witch bestows the soul     of a beast upon a warrior who seeks strength." [01:36] Hort     Yup! That's it! [01:38] Hort     If the beast warrior and the witch die,      the beast soul has nowhere to go [01:43] Hort     and enters the witch's bloodline. [01:46] Hort     Then part-beast, part-human babies     appear among the witch's descendants. [01:52] Hort     Over time, as the witch blood dilutes, [01:55] ---     the beast soul's influence gradually weakens, [01:58] Hort     resulting in an increasingly     human appearance. [02:01] Hort     Professor Los just told     me that I'm a beastfallen. [02:06] Hort     I felt so relieved when I heard that. [02:08] Hort     I was able to feel relieved, [02:10] Hort     thanks to you. [02:12] Saybil     Me? [02:14] Hort     You wouldn't speak ill of Kudo     because he's a beastfallen. [02:19] Hort     That made me happy. [02:22] Saybil     I only... [02:24] Saybil     said how I felt... [02:38] Hort     I'm going to bed now! [02:40] Saybil     Okay.

[02:52] Los     What hast thou so timid? [02:56] Saybil     I don't really get it. [02:57] Los     Get what? [02:59] Saybil     Love and stuff. [03:03] Los     How quaint! [03:05] Los     Well, lad, worry, suffer,     and flail thy way forward! [03:09] Los     The more you three struggle, [03:11] Los     the more entertaining things are for me! [03:15] Saybil     That's really warped. SIGN    Episode 3     Beyond the Steam [04:54] Student 2     I told you it was risky to     get in bed with the Church! [04:57] Student 1     Please don't expel me...     Please don't expel me... [04:58] Student 2     Damn it! All for some chump change! [05:01] Saybil     So those two were leaking info? [05:04] Kudo     Those jerks. [05:05] Los     Well, that is that. [05:10] Los     As for what is next, [05:12] Los     we shall continue the journey      with just the four of us. [05:15] Los     But first... Kudo. [05:17] Los     I expect daily life will be a     struggle with thy hands like that. [05:21] Los     Let us grow some! [05:23] Kudo     Don't say that so lightly! [05:25] Kudo     I ain't some bean sprout in the shade! [05:27] Saybil     Thou hast healing magic,     dost thou not? [05:29] Los     To my knowledge, magic ought to     be organized into four chapters. [05:34] Los     The Chapter of Hunting,     conceived for hunting; [05:37] Los     the Chapter of Harvest, for agriculture; [05:39] Los     the Chapter of Capture, for public order; [05:42] Los     and the Chapter of Protection, for healing. [05:46] Hort     Impressive! You know so much! [05:48] Los     I have been passionate about      The Grimoire of Zero for many years. [05:53] Los     The textbook you three use is a version of     the Grimoire edited to be safer, is it not? [05:59] Kudo     I can't do it! [06:00] Kudo     Spells from the Chapter of     Protection use the most magic! [06:04] Kudo     I'll run out of magic and collapse     before the fingers form. [06:09] Los     But thou hast Sayb. [06:12] Hort     Of course! [06:13] Hort     With Sayb here, we can use     all the magic we want! Wow! [06:18] Saybil     I see. [06:19] Los     So? Which of you is best at     the Chapter of Protection? [06:24] Saybil     Kudo is. [06:25] Kudo     What?! [06:25] Kudo     M-My specialties are Hunting and Capture! [06:29] Saybil     I heard people make fun of     you for being bad at Hunting. [06:33] Kudo     Don't remember such stupid stuf— [06:36] Kudo     Damn it! What do I need to do? [06:39] Los     The most efficient way is to touch a mucous     membrane where blood vessels can be felt. [06:44] Los     To kiss, for example. [06:46] Saybil     K— [06:47] Kudo     Kiss? [06:50] Hort     No, no, no! [06:52] Hort     Absolutely not! [06:56] Los     Through the hands, then. [06:57] Los     I shall regulate the flow. [07:00] Los     'Twould not be pretty if this went afoul. [07:03] Saybil     Huh? [07:05] Saybil     Excessive magic would cause blood to spray     from every opening in the body, then death. [07:24] Los     Let us begin. [07:25] ---     Hey, wai— [07:26] Kudo     Here? [07:27] Los     Concentrate. [07:29] Los     Well? Dost thou feel the flow? [07:38] Los     Kudo, the incantation. [07:42] Los     Kudo? [07:46] Kudo     Hey, it's not just me, right? [07:49] Kudo     Who's... e-e-embarrassed to chant     incantations in front of people? [07:55] Saybil     I understand. It is embarrassing. [07:57] Hort     Don't say that! I'm trying     not to think about it! [08:01] Los     Ridiculous! Incantations are cool! [08:04] Los     Now, gird thyself! [08:07] Kudo     Iea Do Kouha! [08:09] Kudo     Blood, race forth! [08:10] Kudo     Become flesh and return! [08:13] Kudo     Chapter of Protection, [08:14] Kudo     verse one! [08:17] Kudo     Chordia! [08:23] Hort     Amazing! His hand is regenerating! [08:27] Kudo     Pipe down! I'm concentrating here! [08:33] Kudo     Grant me power! [08:35] Kudo     My name is Kudo! [08:55] Kudo     Whoa! They've regenerated! [08:57] Customer 1     Wow! He just grew new hands! [09:00] Customer 2     They built an academy for magic, right? [09:02] Customer 3     I'd love to go there. [09:03] Los     Now, bard, sing! [09:06] Los     A song in praise of mages! [09:16] Los     Half the people hate mages. Half love them. [09:20] Los     Acclaim on par with the threat     against your lives awaits you three. [09:25] Los     You have already experienced     the greatest persecution. [09:30] Los     'Tis fine to seek abundant praise! [09:33] Los     Now, we must be off, my ducklings! [09:37] Los     Stand tall! Hold your heads high! [09:41] Los     The Kingdom of Wenias's prized     mages are coming through! [09:52] Zero     I see. [09:56] Hort     A city! [10:02] Saybil     This is a large city. [10:05] Hort     It's much smaller than Plasta. [10:08] Carriage Driver     Move it! Move it! [10:09] Carriage Driver     You're in the way! [10:16] Hort     S-Sayb! [10:20] Saybil     Huh? [10:21] Kudo     Yikes. [10:22] Hort     Are you okay? [10:26] Los     First up is a bath. [10:27] Los     My usual inn boasts     large bathing facilities. [10:31] Hort     B-Bathing facilities? [10:33] Hort     Would I be able to use them? [10:36] Saybil     What do you mean? [10:37] Kudo     Duh. She doesn't want her antlers seen. [10:43] Los     'Tis fine. I shall make a reservation. [10:46] Los     Thou canst let thy hair down without worry. [10:52] Kudo     This is incredible! [10:56] Saybil     Hey, um, before you were with us, [11:00] Saybil     we discussed our reasons     for becoming mages... [11:05] Kudo     To join the Church & Mage Army. [11:08] Saybil     Do you have to be a mage to join? [11:11] Kudo     You really don't know anything, do you? [11:15] Kudo     The Church & Mage Army was originally     called the Church Knights. [11:19] Kudo     It was a collection of knights who     forsook all their worldly possessions [11:22] Kudo     just to protect the Church and the people. [11:26] Kudo     And the Church disliked beastfallen. [11:30] Kudo     After peace was made with     witches, it was renamed, [11:33] Kudo     and a beastfallen unit was formed. [11:36] Kudo     The elite of the elite. [11:38] Kudo     But, you see, I'm not strong. [11:41] Kudo     If I want to join the      Church & Mage Army, [11:44] ---     becoming a mage is my only shot. [11:47] Saybil     Why do you want to join them? [11:51] Kudo     Have you heard of the      Dragon Conqueror King? [11:54] Saybil     Yeah. [11:55] Kudo     I used to be in a freak show. [11:58] Kudo     While I was there, we were hit     by the Disasters of the North. [12:02] Saybil     That stuff that happened six years ago? [12:06] Kudo     Some crazy witch suddenly      declared she'd destroy the world, [12:10] Kudo     and the north was brought to ruin in a night. [12:13] Kudo     Even now the north is crawling with monsters,     and the Church & Mage Army fights them. [12:18] Kudo     At the time, the Church & Mage Army      was still the Church Knights. [12:22] Kudo     To the world, I was an embodiment of     corruption. A worthless beastfallen. [12:28] Kudo     And so, the fact is,     he didn't have to save me. [12:32] Kudo     Yet he found me and smiled. [12:37] (Flashback) Dragon Conqueror King     Good. You're alive. [12:41] Kudo     I wanted to be like him. [12:44] Kudo     Peace was made with witches and the name      was changed to the Church & Mage Army. [12:48] Kudo     The Dragon Conqueror King     became their symbol, [12:51] Kudo     so I made the Army my goal. [12:55] Saybil     I see. That's kind of amazing. [12:58] Kudo     What about you? [13:00] Saybil     Huh? [13:02] Kudo     Why do you wanna be a mage? [13:04] ---     You're just gonna leave me hanging? [13:06] Los     Oh... [13:07] Saybil     I— [13:08] Los     What do you think of these baths? [13:12] Los     Spacious, yes? Lavish, yes?     Incredible, are they not? [13:17] Saybil     P-P-Professor Los?! [13:19] Kudo     What's going on in your skull?! [13:21] Los     I am here to bathe. [13:22] Kudo     Go to the women's bath! [13:23] Kudo     Scram, you pervert! [13:25] Kudo     Pervert?! [13:27] Los     Why must I be treated as a pervert     for removing my clothes at the baths? [13:31] Los     Just 100 years ago, 'twas perfectly     normal to bathe in mixed company! [13:35] Los     I swear, adolescents are so overly sensitive. [13:39] Los     Does seeing my beautiful     flesh roil your lower halves? [13:45] Los     Very well! Roil away! [13:48] Kudo     Who would be roiled by you, moron?! [13:52] Saybil     H-Hey, wait. [14:12] Kudo     So sorry! T-Take this! [14:14] Saybil     Huh? [14:22] Hort     Ah! A monster! [14:25] Kudo     Yeah, to be honest,      I think it's a monster, too. [14:29] Saybil     You know, I think an apology takes     priority over saying stupid stuff. [14:38] Saybil     The journey from that point on [14:39] Saybil     went so smoothly that the disastrous     beginning hardly seemed real. [14:43] Saybil     The inn owners along the road     all knew Professor Los, [14:47] ---     and they welcomed us as well. [14:49] Saybil     Professor Los knew where     to find the clearest lakes, [14:53] ---     the best camping spots,     and the shadiest trees. [14:56] Los     She even taught us hunting methods for fun. [15:00] Saybil     And when we encountered     people who needed help, [15:03] ---     she actively encouraged us to use magic. [15:08] Saybil     In my three years at the Academy, [15:11] Saybil     never had I felt so strongly safeguarded. [15:17] Hort     Professor Los, it's kinda     like you're our mom. [15:20] Los     Your mom?! [15:22] Los     What art thou? A needy child? [15:24] Hort     But if we seek attention,     you'll let us have it. [15:27] ---     Hey, now. [15:29] Kudo     Hey, Professor, what are you gonna     do when this escort job is over? [15:34] Los     I shall go see the Mud-Black Witch. [15:37] Kudo     The Mud-Black... You mean...? [15:41] Los     Precisely. The inventor of magic and     the author of The Grimoire of Zero. [15:47] (Flashback) Albus     But... [15:47] (Flashback) Albus     ...yes. [15:49] (Flashback) Albus     I could let you meet the     author of the grimoire. [15:53] Kudo     Then what? [15:55] Los     We shall talk! [15:56] Kudo     I don't see the point. [15:58] Los     Why, it will stave off boredom. [16:00] Los     I get so bored I cannot stand it. [16:03] Los     After living for 300 years,     I have grown tired even of breathing. [16:08] Los     But as long as my dear Ludens exists,     my life shall know no end. [16:14] Los     Listen, Kudo. A witch who sustains herself     on magic loses even the need for food. [16:20] Los     Dost thou grasp what that means? [16:22] Kudo     It's super convenient? [16:25] Los     Thou art not wrong. [16:27] Los     Living things spend most of their     time eating and sleeping. [16:31] Los     However, I shan't die if I do not eat. [16:34] Los     Therefore, meals are meaningless. As is sleep. [16:37] Los     Nor do I need to produce offspring. [16:41] Los     So love and romance too are meaningless. [16:43] Los     Answer me this. What is it that I have left? [16:47] Kudo     Huh? Um... [16:50] Hort     Is it... play? [16:52] Los     Yes! Precisely! [16:54] Hort     I'm right?! Woo-hoo! [16:56] Los     Fun! [16:58] Los     That is everything to me. [17:01] Los     New experiences, grave dangers! [17:04] Los     To me, even the collapse of the north     that plunged the world into fear [17:08] Los     was entertainment that      made my heart dance. [17:12] Los     Seeing the pack of demons     trampling humanity, [17:14] ---     this thought leapt to mind: [17:17] Los     "Ah, I'm glad I lived to see this!" [17:21] Kudo     You've got a screw loose. [17:23] Los     "Normal" changes with the times. [17:26] Los     Witches who have lived through hundreds      of years and many kinds of "normal" [17:31] Los     lose their sense of "normal", as well. [17:35] Saybil     Still, [17:36] Saybil     I think you're a good person,     Professor Los. [17:41] Los     A-Art thou trying to make me blush? [17:45] Los     Anyway, [17:46] Los     I recently realized something. [17:48] Los     'Tis fun to spend time with people. [17:51] Los     No two people are alike. [17:54] Los     This journey with you     is especially enjoyable, [17:59] Los     but the journey shall end soon. [18:02] Los     'Tis not far to our destination. [18:05] [Laios?]     What're you people doing? [18:07] [Laios?]     You can't be there! [18:10] Los     Who art thou? [18:12] [Laios?]     Hide! [18:14] ---     Hurry up and run! [18:15] [Laios?]     If he finds you, you'll be killed! [18:18] [Laios?]     Hurry! Hurry! [18:22] [Laios?]     Come. In here. [18:24] [Laios?]     Go inside! Hurry! [18:32] [Laios?]     Centipede, [18:33] [Laios?]     thunder, [18:34] [Laios?]     eye of bird... [18:35] [Laios?]     Gate, seal! [18:44] Los     Didst thou just use sorcery? [18:47] [Laios?]     Shh! The barrier doesn't block sound. [18:52] Los     This barrier is constructed so as to     use particular words to activate. [18:58] ---     What precision. [19:01] Hort     Tell us. Did a witch of the     village set up this barrier? [19:07] Mercenary     Hey! [19:10] Mercenary     Where are you hiding? [19:13] Mercenary     If you come out now, you won't be punished. [19:18] Mercenary     If you don't, I'll break the other     kids' legs. Is that what you want? [19:25] Hort     Stay put. [19:32] Mercenary     That's strange. I hear heartbeats... [19:35] Mercenary     right around here. [19:46] Hort     Don't! [19:58] Mercenary     Ah. There you are. [20:00] Hort     What do we do? He jumped out! [20:03] Kudo     With magic, we can take him! [20:06] Kudo     Hort, get him! You have Saybil with you. [20:09] Mercenary     I see. You're part of the field program. [20:13] Hort     H-How do you know that? [20:14] Mercenary     Who knows? [20:16] Mercenary     You should know that you won't     finish an incantation in time. [20:19] ---     You're too close to me. [20:21] Mercenary     One of you should've hidden and cast fro— [20:40] Los     Run! [20:49] Los     Wilt thou not chase? [20:50] Mercenary     Don't be ridiculous. [20:52] ---     The moment I turn my back to you,     my ass can kiss my tail goodbye. [20:59] Los     Oh, thou wilt retreat? [21:02] Mercenary     I'm a mercenary. I don't     fight battles I can't win. [21:06] Los     Even so, there is no reason     for me to let you go. [21:14] Los     I see. [21:16] Los     If I kill you, someone     else will act. Is that it? [21:21] Mercenary     You saved me the trouble of explaining. [21:23] Mercenary     I just needed the kid to     return to the village. [21:27] Mercenary     But what about you? They went     running toward the village. [21:32] Mercenary     Your field program students. [21:37] Mercenary     The Staff of Ludens, eh? A fine staff. [21:41] Los     How much dost thou know? [21:45] Mercenary     Go after your precious students. [21:49] Mercenary     We'll meet again. [22:02] [Laios?]     Father, I'm back! [22:06] Priest     Laios. [22:08] Priest     I was worried. You just disappeared. [22:13] [Laios?]     Those people saved me. [22:16] [Laios?]     They said they're mages! [22:20] Priest     You three are mages? SIGN    Next Episode "I'm Not Afraid to Die" [23:55] Los     So fluffy! I want him, too! [23:59] Zero     No. He is my mercenary. [24:01] Los     Huh? And who art thou? [24:04] Zero     Next Episode: "I'm Not Afraid to Die." [24:07] Los     Tell me who!

Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) [00:01] Priest     You three are mages? [00:04] Priest     From the field program, then. [00:06] Hort     What? [00:07] Saybil     You know about that? [00:08] Priest     Of course the residents of the target village     for the program would know about it. [00:15] Priest     Are you simpletons? [00:18] Priest     I beg your pardon. [00:19] Priest     I held ill will for witches     for a long time. It was reflexive. [00:24] Kudo     Wh-What a jerk. [00:26] Hort     Shh! [00:27] Laios     These people protected me. [00:30] Priest     Oh, my... [00:32] Priest     You confronted the mercenary     and did not run? [00:35] Priest     Somewhat reckless of you. [00:37] Hort     U-Um, what's going on here?     Who is that beastfallen? [00:43] Priest     Leave this place. [00:44] Hort     What?! [00:46] Priest     That beastfallen is a guard, [00:49] Priest     who solidifies the witch's     control over this village. [00:53] Priest      [02:23] Priest     It was two years ago that control     of the village changed hands. SIGN    Episode 4 I'm Not Afraid to Die [02:28] Priest     The witch who was to be your supervisor [02:31] Priest     surrendered the village to an invader     without a fight and vanished. [02:36] Priest     Ever since, no one has been     able to oppose her. [02:40] Kudo     Wh-What's the deal? [02:42] Kudo     Does the Headmaster know? [02:44] Kudo     Wh-What's the point      of sending us here if— [02:49] Saybil     Of the five special program students, [02:53] Saybil     three were working     with the anti-witch faction, [02:56] Saybil     one is a badly-behaved beastfallen, [03:00] Saybil     and one is a remedial student. [03:03] Saybil     We're all problems for the Academy. [03:06] Hort     Y-You mean... she took students     she wanted to be rid of [03:10] Hort     and sent them to the field program? [03:11] Hort     Would going back to the Academy now     mean we flunk and get expelled? [03:17] Hort     It wouldn't, right? [03:18] Kudo     Why do something so roundabout when— [03:20] Priest     Not fulfilling one's duties [03:23] Priest     is a serious issue in large organizations. [03:26] Kudo     Damn it! [03:28] Kudo     Then why don't we go notify the Church     & Mage Army and defeat the witch? [03:31] Priest     Battling a powerful witch     could mean losing 1,000 soldiers. [03:37] Priest     It's not worth it to them. [03:39] Kudo     The Church & Mage Army doesn't     operate based on profit and loss! [03:42] Priest     In these parts, they call     themselves the Church Knights. [03:47] Priest     The troubles of a witch village [03:50] Priest     would not move them in the slightest. [03:53] Los     Why would you trust him? [03:55] Los     Do you not find him fishy? [03:58] Los     What proof do you have that this priest     is not in league with that beastfallen? [04:03] Saybil     Professor Los. [04:05] Hort     But the father here is blind... [04:07] Los     What does that matter? [04:09] Los     I look like no more than     an adorable young girl, [04:12] Los     but in fact I am a renowned [04:15] Los     witch. [04:16] Los     In the absence of sufficient     reason for trust, [04:19] Los     I maintain skepticism. [04:22] Priest     A sudden appearance     followed swiftly by rudeness. [04:26] Los     That beastfallen knew      I was the students' escort. [04:32] Los     'Tis strange, is it not? [04:34] Los     What aspect of mine adorable visage     would have suggested that? [04:39] Los     But what if the Arbiter who attacked us     ran back to the Church and provided intel? [04:45] Los     And then a priest shared that information     from the Church with the witch? [04:51] Priest     I see. Suspicious indeed. [04:53] Priest     If you encounter someone so suspicious, [04:56] Priest     wouldn't the effective strategy     be to kill them immediately? [04:59] Los     'Twould be simple to kill them. [05:01] Los     However, I am fond of careful     scrutiny of the circumstances. [05:05] Los     If thou insist thou art not our enemy, [05:08] Los     show us around the village. [05:11] Los     I should like to see     the villagers' reactions. [05:14] Priest     As you please. [05:19] Laios     Daddy! [05:23] Uls     Laios! [05:25] Uls     You're safe. I was so worried! [05:28] Priest     It's all right. He is unharmed, Uls. [05:32] Uls     Father. [05:33] Uls     Who are these kids? [05:35] Priest     Field program students, apparently.     They protected Laios from the mercenary. [05:40] Saybil     This is the field program village... [05:43] Uls     Thank you for bringing my boy back. [05:47] Uls     Father, is the danger to the village past? [05:49] Priest     Yes. [05:51] Priest     However, these folks appear to     suspect me of working for the witch. [05:56] Uls     Yeah, you do seem fishy. [06:00] Uls     Still, that's quite some     bad luck you guys have. [06:03] Uls     But don't lose heart! [06:05] Uls     Oh, you must be tired from your journey. [06:08] Uls     Even if you're going back,     you should rest for the night. [06:12] Laios     And that's the school over there! [06:14] Hort     Wow, you have a school. [06:17] Uls     We take care of the orphaned     kids as a village. [06:21] Laios     I'm the only kid who was     born in the village. [06:24] Laios     When I was born,     the nice witch lady did a spell [06:28] Laios     so everyone would like me! [06:30] Laios     She told me so. [06:32] Laios     That's why I'm the most     precious child in the village! [06:36] Laios     Oh, um, [06:38] Laios     I'm talking about the previous witch lady. [06:42] Laios     Remember the barrier in the forest?     She made that, too! [06:46] Los     'Twas a marvelous barrier. [06:48] Uls     Yes. She was the pride of the village. [06:51] Kudo     If that witch was so great, [06:53] Kudo     how come she fled without fighting? [06:56] Hort     Hey! [06:57] Uls     I just don't know. She'd been with us     since the founding of the village. [07:04] Los     'Tis very quiet around here. [07:07] Uls     We hardly ever get any     strangers visiting, so... [07:11] Uls     Here we are. This is it. [07:17] Kudo     Wh-What are those? [07:20] Uls     Dolls. [07:21] Uls     One for each person who used to live here. [07:25] Hort     Used to live here? [07:28] Uls     Well... [07:30] Uls     The witch and the mercenary     aren't bad people, [07:33] Uls     but they don't tolerate escape. [07:36] Uls     The sight of those dolls stops     people from trying to run. [07:39] Uls     Except for the kids who don't     remember two years ago. [07:43] Uls     But life ain't that bad here. [07:45] Uls     If ya follow the rules,     it's calm and peaceful. [07:51] Laios     See ya later! [07:54] Los     I see... [07:56] Los     Yes. [08:03] Los     I see... [08:06] Los     Very well! [08:09] Los     Let us kill the witch. [08:13] Los     And Albus, while we're at it. [08:15] Kudo     What now?! [08:16] Hort     P-Professor?! [08:18] Hort     Killing the Headmaster won't solve anything! [08:22] Los     But 'tis infuriating! [08:24] Los     That damned Albus! [08:25] Los     She duped not only you three, [08:27] Los     but me as well! [08:30] Hort     Oh, right. If there's no supervising witch,     your job can't end. [08:36] Los     Precisely. [08:38] Los     So... [08:42] Los     The more I think about it,     the more it infuriates me! [08:44] Los     The lass made a total fool of me! [08:48] Los     Listen up, my ducklings! [08:50] Los     I swear to complete my job! [08:53] Los     I'll teach her [08:55] Los     what happens if thou     underestimate the Dawn Witch! [09:05] Los     My goodness. Youngsters these days. [09:07] Los     Utterly lacking in passion and drive. [09:10] Kudo     I'm pissed, too.     But there's nothing I can do. [09:14] Hort     If we go back to Wenias, maybe the     Church & Mage Army will help us! [09:20] Saybil     But... [09:22] Saybil     If we do that, the village     is sure to become a battlefield. [09:27] Saybil     I'm not sure it's right to do that     to the village just so we can graduate. [09:33] Hort     Th-That's... [09:35] Saybil     Which is why I feel we     should do this on our own. [09:39] Hort     What? [09:41] Saybil     The fact that she let us into     the village means she isn't wary of us. [09:45] Saybil     With me around,     you two can cast without limit. [09:49] Saybil     And we even have Professor Los! [09:51] Saybil     And if I grab the Staff of Ludens again,     it can at least serve as a distraction— [09:55] Kudo     That's enough! [10:00] Kudo     The beastfallen in the forest     has clearly seen war. [10:04] Kudo     Imagine the sort of witch he works for. [10:06] Kudo     You're telling us to die in a fight     we have no shot at winning! [10:11] Hort     C-Calm down! That's not what Sayb meant. [10:15] Kudo     Who cares! It's what he said! [10:19] Saybil     So we just sit back and get expelled? [10:22] Saybil     If that happens, we'll have     our memories erased. [10:25] Saybil     Including all memory of this journey,     and of everyone else. [10:29] Saybil     Then I'll be empty. [10:33] Kudo     You'd die to avoid starting over? [10:37] Saybil     I realized something [10:39] Saybil     when we were attacked by the Arbiter     and I decided to use the Staff of Ludens. [10:50] Saybil     I'm not afraid to die. [10:57] Hort     But just the thought scares me. [11:00] Saybil     I'm sorry. Of course it does. [11:03] Saybil     You and Kudo can leave     the village and wait, then. [11:08] Hort     What are you talking about? [11:13] Hort     I was telling you [11:15] Hort     that I don't want you to die! [11:18] Saybil     Huh? Why? [11:25] Saybil     Huh? Um... [11:29] Saybil     Hort! [11:30] Los     What is the point of chasing after her? [11:33] Saybil     To apologize, of course. [11:35] Los     "I don't know what I did,     but I'll just apologize." Is that it? [11:40] Los     'Tis an awful kind of apology. [11:43] Los     Excessively low regard for thyself     can at times hurt others. [11:48] Saybil     Kudo, educate this numbskull     about why Hort cried. [11:55] Kudo     It's because you're friends. [11:58] Saybil     What? [11:59] Kudo     Hort just doesn't want her     friend to die like a dog. [12:03] Kudo     But you couldn't see why she would be sad. [12:08] Saybil     Friends... [12:13] Saybil     I don't want Hort to die, either. [12:16] Saybil     I'm going to apologize! [12:20] Los     Ah, youth. [12:25] Hort     What kind of mage am I? [12:28] Hort     This just screams "one of     the Church's faithful." [12:32] Lilly     Is that bad? [12:38] Hort     D-Do you live here? [12:42] Lilly     I'm Lilly. I was cleaning. [12:45] Hort     O-Oh, I see. I'm sorry for interrupting. [12:50] Hort     Th-There's no rain.     Why are you dressed like that? [12:53] Lilly     Um, I'm supposed to stay out of sight. [12:57] Lilly     But... you were crying. [12:59] Hort     Oh, um, I... [13:03] Lilly     Are you sad? [13:04] Hort     No, no. I just had a fight with a friend. [13:09] Lilly     Oh. [13:11] Lilly     Um, it's okay for a mage     to follow the Church. [13:16] Lilly     The father says that all the time. [13:21] Hort     Hey, Lilly, do you love the father? [13:25] Lilly     Huh? [13:26] Lilly     H-How did you know? [13:28] Priest     Lilly. [13:32] Hort     Father... [13:35] Kudo     Hey, do we have a shot? [13:38] Los     I couldn't say. [13:39] Kudo     Then what's the point of fighting? [13:42] Los     To live. [13:45] Los     My purpose in life is entertainment. [13:47] Los     And right now, mine entertainment [13:50] Los     is you three! [13:52] Los     These past few days, I have completely     inhabited the role of teacher. [13:57] Los     The ducklings I have protected and guided [14:01] Los     are about to be cruelly     brought crashing down to earth. [14:04] Los     I detest simplistic tragedies. [14:07] Los     I shan't allow anyone to trample upon     my beloved students' denouement. [14:14] Los     If it is to obtain the ending I desire, [14:18] Los     then I shall be willing to die. [14:26] Priest     My goodness. I told her not to come out. [14:30] Hort     She comforted me because I was crying. [14:34] Hort     So please, don't scold her. [14:37] Priest     Are you in a position to worry about others? [14:40] Hort     Huh? [14:42] Priest     I heard you had a fight with a friend. [14:44] Hort     Y-You heard that? [14:47] Priest     I have excellent hearing. [14:50] Hort     It's not a big deal. [14:53] Hort     I just... [14:57] Hort     Of course. I... [14:59] Hort     I should have used my words. [15:03] Hort     Sayb just didn't understand.     I didn't have to get so upset. [15:08] Hort     I'm sure they're all worried about me. [15:10] Hort     I'll just use my words. [15:12] Hort     I better head back now. [15:16] Hort     Huh? [15:16] Priest     How utterly careless of you. [15:19] Priest     Going off alone in a village     controlled by a witch. [15:25] Hort     His cane... [15:27] Hort     That symbol... [15:29] Hort     Dia Ignis! [15:31] Priest     Speaking of fights, [15:33] Priest     I heard you betrayed the Church. [15:37] Priest     I don't blame you. [15:40] Priest     You attended a mage academy     for four whole years. [15:44] Priest     Of course it had an effect on you. [15:47] Priest     Furthermore, the Tyrant's barbaric     nature is difficult to condone. [15:54] Hort     I-I can't move! [15:57] Priest     Let's have a little conversation. [16:06] Hort     S-Somebody! [16:09] Priest     Shh. Quiet. [16:12] Priest     If your heart is righteous, [16:16] Priest     then no one will be hurt. [16:20] Los     Thou art unable to find Hort? [16:23] Saybil     Correct. I've looked everywhere. [16:25] Los     Did any of the villagers see anything? [16:31] Los     There's no other option.     We'll track her magic. [16:35] Kudo     Are you sure this is the right way? [16:37] Los     I can track any mage I have met. [16:41] Kudo     But why would she be in this forest? [16:45] Los     It appears she must be in there. [16:49] Kudo     A cave?! [16:52] Los     Wow! [16:53] Los     The cave is lit up! How convenient! [16:56] Saybil     Amazing! [16:58] Saybil     So you can cast Solm     with no incantation, too. [17:01] Kudo     Of course I can! [17:02] Kudo     One day, I'll be able to cast any spell     without doing the incantation. [17:10] Saybil     Professor Los? [17:13] Los     Blood. [17:15] Los     And the magical traces I sense     from further in don't belong to Hort alone. [17:22] Kudo     Shit, this is a trap! Let's retreat! [17:26] Los     No, this is perfect. [17:27] Kudo     What?! [17:27] Saybil     Huh? [17:29] Los     If the village's ruler     is granting us an audience, [17:33] Los     then let's graciously     accept the offer, shall we? [17:36] Kudo     Are you stupid?! We'll be killed! [17:39] Los     A battle with a witch [17:41] Los     is all about evading     the traps she has laid out. [17:45] Los     My dear Ludens and     I shall discern those traps. [17:49] Kudo     That still won't change the fact      we're at a disadvantage! [17:53] Los     The Church & Magic Army does     not fear fighting witches. [17:57] Los     The symbol of that army is [18:00] Los     the king of a lost nation destroyed by a dragon, [18:03] Los     the Dragon Conqueror King. [18:04] Los     He found victory     in a seemingly hopeless fight [18:07] Los     and became the master of a dragon. [18:10] Los     Wilt thou be a daring and resolute      soldier or a fleeing civilian? [18:15] Los     The choice is thine. [18:21] Kudo     This is stupid! [18:22] Kudo     I ain't goin' along with this! [18:24] Kudo     I'm not as strong     as the Dragon Conqueror King [18:26] Kudo     and charging to an obvious     death isn't bravery! [18:30] Kudo     I don't care if I'll be expelled! [18:32] Saybil     Kudo! [18:34] Los     It seems I didn't push hard enough. [18:37] Los     Sayb, light, please. [18:45] ---     Damn it! [18:46] Mercenary     You abandoned them? [18:51] Kudo     Y-You... [18:53] Mercenary     If you cut ties with them, [18:56] Mercenary     then how about joining me? [18:59] Mercenary     You'll be able to learn magic. [19:02] Kudo     What? [19:04] Saybil     Chapter of Harvest, verse one, Solm! [19:07] Saybil     Grant me power! [19:09] Saybil     My name is Saybil! [19:16] Los     What the devil was that? An explosion?! [19:19] Saybil     S-Sorry, Professor. [19:22] Los     Thou hast not the least bit of control. [19:25] Saybil     Sorry. [19:27] Los     If I could use magic... [19:31] Los     I believe I've had a great idea. [19:36] Mercenary     Real witches can create magic. [19:40] Mercenary     That includes my employer. [19:42] Kudo     I-I only want to join     the Church & Mage Army. [19:46] Kudo     There's no point learning     magic if I'm expelled. [19:50] Mercenary     I can get you into the Army. [19:52] Kudo     What?! [19:53] Kudo     Is that true, old man? [19:55] Mercenary     "Old man?" [19:57] Mercenary     If you accept the conditions, I'll enter     into a witch's blood contract with you. [20:07] Mercenary     Whaddya say? [20:09] Kudo     Where's Hort? [20:10] Mercenary     Huh? [20:11] Kudo     What did you do with Hort? [20:13] Mercenary     Hort? [20:15] Mercenary     Oh, the girl with the hat. [20:19] Mercenary     I killed and ate her. [20:22] Mercenary     She tasted great. [20:24] Mercenary     The flesh of young women is so tender. [20:32] Kudo     You cur! [20:34] Kudo     Over my dead body! [20:36] Mercenary     Fine. Get lost, then. [20:39] Mercenary     It's a pain, but I gotta kill your friends. [20:44] Kudo     Hold it! [20:48] Kudo     You're not going anywhere! You hear me? [20:53] Mercenary     I like your spunk. You pass. [20:56] Mercenary     Or so I'd like to say, [20:59] Mercenary     but first let's see what you've got! [21:03] Saybil     There's nothing here. [21:06] Saybil     No traps. [21:07] Los     It seems not. [21:08] Los     'Tis conciliation. [21:11] Los     An apprentice mage with limitless magic. [21:14] Los     Any witch would want thee, [21:17] Los     including the witch     of this village, I dare say. [21:21] Saybil     The witch wants me? [21:31] Los     Sayb! [21:33] Saybil     I-I'm fine. [21:36] Saybil     I think I just remembered something. [21:40] Los     Listen, Sayb. [21:43] Los     None would blame thee     if thou turnst back. [21:46] Saybil     What? [21:48] Los     There is no shame in running. [21:50] Los     Thou value thine own life too lightly. [21:54] Los     Wouldst thou try to save Hort alone,     even if I were against it? [22:01] Saybil     I would. [22:03] Los     Why? [22:06] Saybil     Hort is a... f-friend. That's why. [22:14] Los     Ah, friendship. [22:17] Los     I, too, had that once. [22:20] Saybil     Y-You are, too, Professor. [22:27] Saybil     I would try to save you, as well.     Without question. [22:35] Los     My goodness! [22:37] Los     Thou art certainly a sweet-talker! [22:39] Saybil     Professor Los. [22:41] Los     There are people who care for thee. [22:43] Los     There are people thou carest for. [22:46] Los     Never forget that. [23:00] Los     Sayb! [23:04] Los     Ludens! [23:14] Los     Ow! [23:16] Los     That was right in the stomach! [23:17] Priest     I warned you, didn't I? [23:21] Priest     That if you have suspicions, [23:24] Priest     you should kill me. [23:55] Hort     What's going on? [23:56] Hort     Did I die? Tell me! Tell me! SIGN    Next Episode "I Decide Who's Worthy" [23:58] Los     Hort, calm down. [24:01] Saybil     Next time: "I Decide Who's Worthy." [24:04] Hort     Address my death already!

[00:37] Zero     I have been waiting for you. SIGN    Episode 5 I Decide Who's Worthy [02:11] Zero     What do you mean? [02:14] Zero     Who are you? [02:16] Los     Keep calm. [02:17] Los     A witch's eyes house magical power. [02:20] Los     If thou art not careful,     thou shalt be bewitched. [02:26] Zero     You're in the way. [02:35] Saybil     Professor Los! [02:38] Saybil     Professor Los! [02:40] Saybil     Professor Los! [02:42] Zero     A pretender who cannot even use sorcery     calls herself a witch and stands at your side. [02:48] Zero     I am exceedingly displeased. [02:51] Zero     Young man, you are exceptional. [02:55] Zero     Better than the pretender you hold. [02:57] Zero     Better than the insects who     swarmed to you for your magic. [03:04] Saybil     That's... [03:06] Saybil     What'd you do to Hort? [03:08] Zero     I let my mercenary have her. [03:12] Zero     In order to recover you from Albus, [03:16] Zero     I have gone to great lengths, [03:18] Zero     including taking this village, all for you. [03:21] Saybil     Because of me... [03:24] Saybil     It's my fault... [03:37] Zero     I shall love you. [03:40] Zero     I shall guide you. [03:43] Zero     If you are with me, no one     will be able to hurt you. [03:48] Zero     Young man, come. [03:51] Zero     I shall take you to a world befitting of you. [03:57] Saybil     How are they not befitting? [04:04] Saybil     Take Hort. [04:06] Saybil     She was nice to me when there     was nothing special about me. [04:09] Saybil     She said the thought of me dying scared her. [04:13] Saybil     And Kudo! [04:14] Saybil     He was honest and     treated everyone the same. [04:18] Saybil     He had the courage not to change     his blunt disposition for anyone. [04:22] Saybil     Professor Los, too. [04:25] Saybil     She cast her treasured staff away for us! [04:29] Saybil     She gladly taught us     anything we needed to know. [04:34] Saybil     You were my only memory. [04:38] Saybil     But of all my memories, [04:40] Saybil     the one I could most do without... [04:43] Saybil     is you! [04:48] Zero     You rebuff me? A witch as great as I? [04:53] Saybil     I'll decide who's worthwhile. [04:58] Saybil     And you [05:00] Saybil     don't qualify! [05:06] Saybil     If I pour all my magic into a spell, [05:09] Saybil     I might manage to save     Professor Los at least. [05:18] Saybil     Bag Do Gla— [05:31] Saybil     Wh-What? [05:49] Los     I have not felt this in ages. [05:52] Los     My whole body is surging with magical energy! [05:58] Saybil     Professor... Los... [06:00] Los     Out-of-control casting? [06:02] Los     Self-destructive acts are foolhardy. [06:04] Los     I know I have taught thee that. [06:06] Zero     So you siphoned magical power from him. [06:10] Zero     Still, long before you complete any sorcery, [06:13] Zero     I can cast magic. [06:16] Los     So thou thinkest. [06:19] Los     Bag Do Glaht! [06:22] Los     Kalpa fire, come forth! [06:23] Los     Flare and blaze! [06:26] Saybil     Professor Los? You can cast magic? [06:28] Los     I can cast this level of spell     by imitating what I saw. [06:32] Los     Since I'm a genius. [06:35] Los     Chapter of Hunting, final verse! [06:37] Los     Flagis! [06:38] Los     Grant me power! [06:40] Los     My name is Loux Krystas! [06:49] Zero     Amusing. [06:52] Zero     I deny your magic. [06:54] Zero     Grant me power, [06:56] Zero     for I am Zero. [07:03] Zero     Watch your ego, Dawn Witch. [07:05] Zero     That spell is mine. [07:07] Zero     It is my magic. [07:09] Zero     It is my wisdom and my power. [07:13] Zero     To wield it against me is laughable. [07:16] Zero     This art you call magic which     substitutes for sorcery, [07:21] Zero     it all began with The Grimoire of Zero. [07:24] Zero     I am that Zero. [07:27] Zero     I wrote The Grimoire of Zero. [07:31] Saybil     This is what she meant. [07:34] (Flashback) Albus     I could let you meet the     author of the grimoire. [07:38] Saybil     We never stood a chance of winning. [07:45] Zero     I am she who discerns meaning     from meaninglessness, [07:49] Zero     who creates something from nothing:      the Mud-Black Witch! [08:09] Saybil     Huh? [08:09] Saybil     Wh-What is this? [08:11] Zero     And, starting today, [08:14] Zero     I am also the witch who will     supervise you in the field program. [08:19] Zero     By the way, the textbook     you use at the Academy, [08:23] Zero     The Grimoire of Beginning From Zero?     I wrote that as well. [08:27] Saybil     Uh... Um... [08:29] Zero     Well done. [08:31] Zero     I welcome you, young mage. [08:36] Saybil     U-Um... [08:43] Los     Didst thou see that, Sayb? [08:45] Los     A real, live magic denial! [08:49] Los     I am so moved! [08:51] Los     My 300 years alive      have not been for nothing! [08:55] Los     Pull it together! Look alive! [09:00] Saybil     'Twas a test, a test! [09:01] Los     Thou hast passed! [09:03] Saybil     I... passed? [09:05] Los     Precisely! [09:06] Hort     Sayb! [09:10] Hort     Congrats, Sayb! [09:13] Saybil     Hort! [09:19] Saybil     Hort, you're okay. [09:23] Hort     If you had agreed to join Zero, [09:26] ---     you would've been expelled on the spot. [09:28] Saybil     What? [09:30] Hort     Everyone in the village was part of it. [09:32] ---     They were all testing us. [09:35] Hort     The father tested me. [09:37] Hort     He told me to pretend to be on your side [09:39] Hort     and keep providing information     to the anti-witch faction. [09:43] Hort     But the moment I spat in his face, [09:48] Hort     he passed me! [09:50] Hort     That priest is a pervert for sure. [09:54] Priest     Who are you calling a pervert? [09:56] Priest     Allow me to return this. [09:58] Los     My dear Ludens! [10:01] Los     I missed thee! [10:01] Priest     You figured out that this     was a test, didn't you? [10:06] Los     Of course I did. [10:09] Los     The supposed house of a family that     died wretched deaths two years ago [10:12] Los     was clean and had kitchen utensils,     water, and tea leaves to boot! [10:18] Los     And the hanging dolls     showed not a sign of wear. [10:22] Los     It was ridiculous. [10:23] Hort     Now that you mention it... [10:25] Priest     I told you the tea leaves were too much. [10:28] Zero     But that was my special blend for relieving     the exhaustion of a long journey. [10:35] Mercenary     Look who else passed. [10:39] Kudo     Y-You guys! [10:43] Saybil and Hort     Kudo! [10:45] Kudo     Thank goodness. [10:47] Kudo     You're both all right. [10:50] Kudo     I was tested, too. [10:52] Kudo     That guy told me he ate Holt. [10:56] Mercenary     Direct your complaints to the priest.     He wrote the script! [11:00] Priest     It was necessary to stir up the students'     rage, fear, and sense of inferiority. [11:07] Zero     Dawn Witch Loux Krystas, [11:10] Zero     though it was part of a test,     I ask your forgiveness for the insults. [11:15] Los     Whatever dost thou mean? [11:18] Los     As a pretender, I'm afraid     my memory is lackluster. [11:34] Holdem     Did you just go into labor? [11:36] Holdem     You weren't hiding a pregnancy     from me, were you? [11:39] Holdem     Ow! [11:40] Albus     Of course not, third-rate servant! [11:43] Albus     I just received word from     Zero via witch's letter. [11:47] Albus     The three remaining students     I sent to her all passed! [11:52] Hort     All? [11:54] Holdem     But not a single person passed last year. [11:57] Albus     It's a remarkable feat! [11:58] Albus     When I heard they were     attacked by an Arbiter, [12:01] Albus     I was uncertain about what I should do. [12:04] Albus     It seems I was right to believe in them. [12:07] Holdem     Well, being in mortal danger together     probably cultivated some solidarity. [12:12] Albus     Yeah, you may be onto something there. [12:16] Albus     It feels odd, [12:18] Albus     but if that's the case, I owe     the Arbiter my gratitude. [12:22] Albus     Very well. I'll throw him a bone. SIGN    Wanted [12:26] Albus     And, if we keep him alive,     we may find a use for him. SIGN    Dead or Alive [12:31] Albus     Distribute this to all the mages, the Church     & Mage Army, and bounty hunters as well. SIGN    Wanted Alive SIGN    Dead or Alive [12:38] Albus     He hurt my students. [12:41] Albus     I won't let him get off scot-free. [12:45] Uls     Now, then, raise a glass to the     first members of the field program! [12:50] Uls     Cheers! [12:54] Kudo     Where'd all these people spring up from? [12:57] Zero     To avoid any accidental bean-spilling, [12:59] Zero     they were all holed up at home     until the end of the test. [13:03] Los     The village was littered     with beans to find, though. [13:07] Zero     No need to be so harsh, Dawn Witch. [13:11] Zero     Allow me to congratulate you again. [13:14] Zero     We wholeheartedly sought your expulsion, [13:18] Zero     but you prevailed. [13:20] Hort     Um, question! Question! [13:22] Hort     Why did you seek to expel us? [13:26] Zero     Because your talent is too great. [13:28] Kudo; Hort; & Saybil     Huh? [13:29] Zero     If an exceptional mage is     swayed to the path of evil, [13:32] Zero     it could mean the end of the world. [13:35] Zero     We opted to test students     with great potential [13:38] Zero     to see if they are virtuous, [13:42] Zero     and expel them if they fail. [13:47] Zero     The other two students were selected     to obtain evidence of their treachery. [13:52] Zero     But you three were different. [13:55] Zero     If any of you sought to destroy the world, [13:58] Zero     the devastation might be greater     than what we've seen in the north. [14:01] Hort     S-Surely you're exaggerating. [14:05] Zero     Young antlered woman, [14:07] Zero     your talent equals that     of the Mooncaller Witch. [14:11] Zero     In other words,      the Headmaster of the Academy. [14:14] Zero     In 10 years' time, you should have the power     to lay waste to a thousand troops in seconds. [14:21] Hort     I-I should? [14:23] Zero     Young lizard man, your     resourcefulness will be fearsome. [14:27] Zero     Your talent for the Chapter of Protection, [14:29] Kudo     if you continue to develop it, [14:31] ---     will make you a name as the Immortal Mage. [14:35] Kudo     Me? [14:37] Zero     And limitless magic... [14:41] Zero     Not even I can see your pinnacle. [14:44] Zero     For the next several hundred years, [14:45] ---     you may be the most long-lived mage. [14:49] Zero     Furthermore, living a long life means [14:52] Zero     endless time to sharpen your techniques. [14:56] Zero     Right now, you are this sphere. [14:58] Zero     However, in time, [15:00] Zero     your power might pierce anything. [15:03] Zero     Staggering, isn't it? [15:05] Zero     I, too, am staggered [15:07] Zero     by the force of this possibility. [15:10] Saybil     Possibility... [15:12] Saybil     So then... things won't     necessarily turn out that way. [15:16] Zero     Indeed. [15:17] Zero     If you neglect your training     and spend your days loafing, [15:21] Zero     I can't even imagine what     lackadaisical mages you'll be. [15:25] Zero     That is a staggering prospect itself. [15:29] Zero     Now, then, let's discuss the field program. [15:32] Zero     You will each have a store. [15:35] Saybil     A store? [15:36] Zero     Yes. [15:37] Zero     So that it's easy for the     villagers to seek your help. [15:41] Zero     By the way, I operate a paltry magic     shop on the outskirts of town. [15:50] Zero     I shall give you three days. [15:52] Zero     Use that time to think about what     kind of store you want to op— [15:55] Mercenary     Dig in! [15:57] Mercenary     You'll think better after ya eat! [16:01] Mercenary     There! [16:02] Mercenary     Don't be shy! I'll keep it comin'. [16:06] Kudo     This isn't... human meat, is it? [16:09] Mercenary     Don't be silly. [16:11] Mercenary     Look at the psychological wound you've     inflicted on these poor kids, killer priest. [16:17] Saybil     "Killer priest?" [16:20] Priest     You see, I used to be     an Arbiter in Dia Ignis. [16:25] Mercenary     And just so ya know, he can see. [16:28] Kudo; Hort; & Saybil     What?! [16:30] Saybil     Then why do you wear that over your eyes? [16:33] Hort     For fashion? [16:34] Hort     Is it fashion? [16:36] Priest     Light hurts my eyes. [16:39] Priest     I can only remove this at night. [16:42] Hort     So it's not fashion. [16:44] Hort     Oh, is the little girl from the church here? [16:48] Priest     There was no little girl at the church. [16:51] Hort     But... [16:52] Priest     If you mean Lilly, she's over 20 years old. [16:56] Hort     No way! But she's smaller than me! [17:00] Priest     She has a timid personality and     doesn't like large groups of people. [17:05] Priest     I'll introduce you one of these days. [17:08] Saybil     Um, Professor Zero... [17:12] Saybil     Did you take me to the Academy? [17:17] Zero     You don't remember? [17:20] Zero     It's all right if you don't. [17:23] Zero     If necessary, you'll remember     when you need to. [17:28] Hort     A store, huh... [17:31] Kudo     Some kind of magic store, too. [17:34] Saybil     Oh, that reminds me. Where's Professor Los? [17:37] Hort     She said something about visiting     Professor Zero's store. [17:41] Hort     She wants to read the books     Professor Zero has written. [17:45] Kudo     H-Hey, you two! Look up there! [17:50] Hort     Is that...? [17:54] Saybil     Kudo. [18:10] Saybil     That's... [18:15] Kudo     The Dragon Conqueror King! [18:17] Dragon Conqueror King     Saybil, Hort, and Kudo. Are they here? [18:22] Hort     Yes! Right here! [18:25] Dragon Conqueror King     The dispatches from the Academy. [18:28] Saybil     Th-Thank you. [18:31] Zero     Dragon Conqueror King, it's been a while. [18:34] Mercenary     Hey, Heath. You've gotten big. [18:37] Dragon Conqueror King     I've told you not to call     me "Dragon Conqueror King." [18:39] Zero     Loosen up. Your name is known worldwide. [18:44] Dragon Conqueror King     It's overblown. [18:46] Dragon Conqueror King     In reality, I'm just here     to handle little errands. [18:51] Zero     That just shows how     important the letters are. [18:58] Saybil     "As field program students, [19:00] Saybil     you are hereby assigned to the witch village. [19:03] Saybil     All restrictions on magic are lifted." [19:08] Dragon Conqueror King     Students that haven't even graduated     are being authorized to use all magic? [19:13] Dragon Conqueror King     That's essentially full authorization     to engage in battle. [19:18] Zero     Naturally, the anti-witch faction     would have things to say. [19:21] Zero     You might call these [19:22] Zero     top secret dispatches. [19:24] Zero     Quite befitting of delivery by dragon. [19:28] Kudo     Excuse me! [19:30] Kudo     I, um... [19:33] Kudo     A long time ago, you saved me! [19:37] Dragon Conqueror King     You're the beastfallen who     was at the freak show. [19:40] Kudo     Y-You remember? [19:43] Dragon Conqueror King     My heart isn't so dead as     to forget that atrocity. [19:48] Dragon Conqueror King     I believe you said you wanted     to join the Church & Mage Army. [19:51] Kudo     If I become a mage,     do you think I could get in? [19:58] Dragon Conqueror King     Who knows? [20:01] Dragon Conqueror King     I'm not in charge of recruitment. [20:04] Dragon Conqueror King     But... [20:06] Dragon Conqueror King     You seem like you'd be an asset in my squad. [20:15] Dragon Conqueror King     I have great expectations. [20:17] Kudo     Th-Thank you! [20:19] Los     Why? [20:20] Los     How come thou didst not call me? [20:23] Los     I wanna see a dragon up close!      I wanna pet it! [20:27] Los     I wanna ride it, if it'd let me! [20:30] Saybil     Well, I'm sure there'll be another chance. [20:30] Los     I wanna ride the dragon! I wanna! [20:34] Los     But I might not be in the village then! [20:40] Los     What is it? [20:42] Los     What's wrong? [20:44] Hort     So you're leaving after all. [20:46] Kudo     I told you. She was just our escort. [20:51] Los     Of course, I shall indeed set out     again in search of entertainment. [20:55] Los     'Tis my way of life. [21:03] Los     But until I've read all the books here, [21:05] Los     I intend to remain in the village. [21:09] Los     In fact... [21:10] Los     I'd say it'll take three years. [21:12] Los     But should I grow bored, I'll leave at once. [21:15] Los     Study! [21:17] Los     I am fond of growth! [21:18] Los     I am fond of change! [21:20] Los     As long as you three aim higher,     I shall lend a hand. [21:24] Los     For that is my entertainment! [21:27] Saybil     Professor Los... [21:32] Los     'Tis too tight! [21:36] Los     Enough, you bunch of big babies! [21:41] Los     You're staying, Dawn Witch? [21:43] Los     I should not wish to hear that a witch has     sunk her fangs into my precious ducklings. [21:52] Zero     Fangs? [21:53] Los     Thou art suffering magical depletion. [21:57] ---     And a severe case at that. [22:01] Zero     So you can tell. [22:03] Los     Sayb would be a godsend to     a witch in thy condition. [22:09] Zero     Your suspicions are justified. [22:12] Zero     If you're staying, I should explain. [22:16] Zero     The young man was born     with that peculiar trait. [22:19] Zero     Thus, as you fear might happen now, [22:22] Zero     he was once attacked by     a witch seeking power. [22:27] Zero     The young man had his mother     killed before his eyes, [22:30] ---     and the witch who sought power [22:33] Zero     perished by magical overload. [22:35] Zero     As a result, he sealed his own memories away. [22:40] Zero     With no memories, he experienced     all manner of oppression [22:44] ---     as practically a slave. [22:48] Zero     By placing himself in a wretched environment, [22:51] Zero     he was punishing himself. [22:55] Zero     The emotional wound he     suffered is terribly deep. [22:59] Zero     Thus, I thought it best to give him a new     lease on life as a student in the Academy [23:05] Zero     with no memory of what happened. [23:09] Zero     But his peculiar trait posed the danger that [23:12] ---     his magic would occasionally     run wildly out of control. [23:17] Los     So thou soughtest his expulsion. [23:19] Los     Thou takest, then givest,      then takest again. How arrogant. [23:24] Los     Why dost thou seek to     control his life like this? [23:29] Zero     He's my nephew. [23:31] Los     Thy nephew?! Then Sayb's father is... [23:37] Zero     Thirteen. [23:37] Los     Thirteen! [23:39] Zero     Yes, the one who stole      The Grimoire of Zero from me [23:43] ---     to create a world controlled by witches. [23:46] Zero     The one who caused war in the     Kingdom of Wenias by spreading magic. [23:51] Zero     That extraordinary evil sorcerer. SIGN    Next Episode "Knowledge of Ignorance" [23:55] ---     The field program has finally begun. [23:58] ---     The students lament their inexperience, [24:01] ---     and fight to break through the walls they've hit. [24:03] ---     Next time: [24:04] ---     "Knowledge of Ignorance."

[00:03] Saybil     In order to be helpful mages, [00:04] Hort     Good morning, Sayb! [00:06] Saybil     Morning! [00:07] Saybil     we each run a store now. [00:09] Hort     Lovely weather again today. [00:10] Saybil     As the village handymage, [00:10] Saybil     Yeah. I'll make your tea. [00:13] Saybil     Hort takes on a variety of job requests. [00:13] Hort     Thanks again, Sayb. [00:16] Saybil     Kudo is using the healing magic he excels at [00:19] Saybil     to serve as an assistant at the clinic. [00:21] Saybil     Morning, Kudo. [00:22] Hort     Morning! [00:22] Saybil     And I run a magic shop out of this house, [00:24] Kudo     'Sup. [00:27] Saybil     where I supply magic to those who need it. [00:30] Hort     Sayb! SIGN    Saybil's Magic Shop [00:32] Hort     I enthusiastically seek your     magic supply services again! [00:40] Hort     Yes, yes, yes! [00:43] Hort     I'm being filled up! [00:45] Hort     I can't get enough [00:47] Hort     of this sensation lately. [00:52] Saybil     Ah. Sorry, Hort. [00:54] Saybil     Are you okay? [00:55] Hort     Huh? [00:56] Hort     Ah, a nosebleed! [00:58] Kudo     You're too thirsty for it, dumb-dumb. [01:00] Kudo     If you take too much, you'll die. [01:02] Hort     But... [01:07] Kudo     Damn it! It really does feel g— [01:09] Kudo     Gross... [01:11] Hort     Well, see you later! [01:13] Kudo     Later. [01:14] Saybil     As the days pass by, [01:17] Saybil     bit by bit, I feel more used to life here. [01:23] Los     Good morning, Sayb! [01:25] Los     Thou lookest well this morning. [02:58] Los     Used to life here, thou sayest? SIGN    Episode 6      Knowledge of Ignorance [03:02] Los     So, [03:03] Los     without ever leaving the house... [03:08] Saybil     How wouldst thou get used to the village? [03:11] Los     I swear. [03:13] Los     To think thou wouldst utterly     avoid initiating interaction! [03:17] Los     Art thou awaiting an invitation to dance, [03:20] Los     like some anxious noble girl at a ball? [03:25] Saybil     I'm confining myself to my shop, [03:27] Saybil     as a commoner apprentice mage. [03:30] Los     So thou know thou art a shut-in. [03:33] Saybil     But in the event someone's magic is depleted, [03:36] Saybil     I need to be here. [03:39] Saybil     And I have cleaning to do. [03:41] Saybil     And everyone's laundry. [03:44] Los     Including Hort's? [03:46] Saybil     Yes. [03:47] Saybil     Hort struggles a little with cleaning. [03:49] Saybil     While I was cleaning the other day, [03:53] Saybil     I found underwear that     had fallen under her bed. [03:56] Los     Let me ask thee. [03:58] ---     Did Hort ask that thou do her laundry? [04:01] Saybil     No. I decided to do it. [04:04] Los     And then Hort started     hiding her underwear? [04:09] Saybil     I don't think she was hiding it... [04:12] Los     'Tis obvious that she was hiding it! [04:16] Los     Listen up! This must stop! [04:17] Los     I cannot find the words to     deride thy dunderheadedness! [04:22] Los     That a nubile maiden should have the     sweaty underwear she worked all day in [04:27] Los     washed by a boy her age? Preposterous! [04:31] Los     What art thou thinking when thou does this? [04:34] Saybil     That I could do with some     soap to remove the stains. [04:40] Saybil     P-Professor Los? [04:42] Los     Didst thou just say stains?! [04:45] Saybil     Well... underwear absorbs sweat, so... [04:48] Saybil     If you don't wash a pair thoroughly... [04:50] Saybil     Stains soon appear— [04:51] Los     Stop! Stop! [04:53] Los     If anyone were to hear thee, [04:56] Los     the women of the village would brand     thee as an enterprising young pervert! [05:01] Saybil     Just for discussing laundry? [05:04] Los     'Tis not just any laundry! [05:06] Los     'Tis a maiden’s freshly-worn underwear! [05:12] Los     I imagine not, but... [05:14] Los     Thou didst not mention underwear     stains or grime to Hort, didst thou? [05:19] Saybil     No. I said I cleaned them, that's all [05:23] Los     O gods... [05:24] Saybil     Wh-What? [05:27] Los     Listen here, Sayb! [05:29] Los     Removed clothing has     one's scent, one's sweat... [05:33] Los     and various other things soaked in!      They're an extension of you! [05:37] Los     Just imagine! [05:38] Los     What if underwear thou just tookest off [05:42] Los     had a large hairy man      slobbering over them? [05:45] Los     Spine-chilling, is it not? [05:46] Saybil     Indeed. [05:48] Saybil     In other words, [05:49] Saybil     to Hort, I'm a big, hairy dude. [05:53] Los     Erm... [05:54] Los     That is somewhat off the mark. [05:57] Los     'Tis quite the opposite. [05:59] Hort     Hort... [06:00] Hort     likes thee, doesn't she? [06:04] Saybil     Well... I'm not really sure. [06:08] Los     She fancies thee! [06:11] Los     Take her to the forest at night and say, [06:14] Los     "You're cute." See what happens! [06:16] Los     Thou shalt shoot up the ladder of adulthood! [06:20] Saybil     So I'll become an old man. [06:23] Los     No! No! No! [06:27] Los     That's not what that means! [06:30] Saybil     I'm sorry. [06:31] Saybil     There's a lot I don't know. [06:35] Los     Listen well. People present     themselves to others. [06:38] Los     When they especially like someone, [06:40] ---     they want that person to     see only their good parts. [06:43] Saybil     But... [06:44] Saybil     It just feels like it's my job. [06:48] Saybil     If I don't do it, I feel so uneasy. [06:51] (Flashback) Zero     With no memories, he experienced     all manner of oppression [06:55] (Flashback) Zero     as practically a slave. [07:01] Los     I see. [07:08] Los     There, there, there. [07:10] Los     Thou art a good boy, Sayb. [07:13] Saybil     Uh, ah... [07:16] Saybil     Thank you, Professor. [07:20] Los     Nevertheless... [07:22] Los     With things this way, thou hast      no time for thy studies. [07:26] Saybil     But compared to practicing casting, [07:30] Saybil     focusing on supporting Hort and Kudo     contributes more to the village in the end. [07:37] Los     Sayb, I'm almost out of     my favorite tea leaves. [07:41] ---     Please fetch some from the forest. [07:42] Saybil     Huh? [07:44] ---     But the store... [07:46] Los     What? [07:47] Los     Thou canst make time for Hort and Kudo. [07:50] Los     But thou canst not make     time for me, is that it? [07:55] Saybil     The reason I do house chores is that     I have a job that keeps me home. [08:00] Los     Wrong. Because thou     never leavest thy home, [08:04] Los     thou art finding tasks to do there. [08:07] Laios     Wow. You're outside, Sayb! [08:10] Laios     This never happens. [08:11] Saybil     Oh... You're Uls's kid.. [08:14] Laios     Come on! [08:16] Laios     Lai-os! [08:19] Laios     What're those leaves? [08:21] Saybil     Oh, well... [08:23] Laios     Jump! [08:24] Laios     Jump! [08:24] Los     Waiting in a particular house for customers, [08:27] Los     and waiting in a particular     village for them... [08:28] Laios     Over here! [08:31] Los     They're both the same thing. [08:32] Saybil     Laios! [08:33] Saybil     H-Hold on a moment. [08:36] Laios     Aw, why? [08:38] Laios     Those leaves are this way. [08:42] Saybil     I'm too big to go this way. [08:46] Laios     But my daddy has no problem     coming this far with me. [08:49] Saybil     Oh... He comes with you? [08:51] Saybil     Uls does? [08:53] Laios     Um... Well, sometimes he does. [08:56] Saybil     Going any further would require tools. [08:59] Saybil     We should go back for now. [09:02] Laios     Y-You think I'm lying, don't you! [09:06] Laios     Fine! I'll go pick some, so why     don't you just stand there. [09:10] Saybil     Laios, wait! [09:13] Saybil     Laios! [09:21] Saybil     Laios. [09:22] Laios     Are you mad? [09:24] Saybil     I'm not mad. [09:26] Laios     But I lied. [09:29] Laios     And now I don't know the way back. [09:32] Saybil     It's my fault for being tricked. [09:35] Saybil     So I think I'll probably     be the one Uls scolds. [09:40] Laios     What?! [09:42] Laios     B-But that's not fair! [09:44] Laios     I'll have my daddy get mad at me. [09:47] Laios     'Cause you were nice... [09:50] Laios     You trusted me. [10:03] Saybil     A mouse? [10:05] Laios     Oh, Lilly! [10:07] Saybil     Lilly? [10:08] Laios     Lilly, at the church. [10:09] Laios     Lilly is friends with mice. [10:13] Laios     Sayb, follow that mouse! [10:16] Laios     It'll show us an easy path to the village. [10:41] Saybil     It's the church. [10:47] Laios     It's my mom! [10:51] Laios's Mom     Lai-os! [10:55] Laios's Mom     Good grief! It's always something. [10:58] Laios     Mommy, I'm sorry! [11:00] Priest     I imagine you're tired from     your stroll in the forest. [11:03] Priest     Why don't you come inside and rest? [11:05] Priest     I'll provide you a meal. [11:08] Saybil     Oh, uh... okay. [11:12] Saybil     This is my first time     going inside the church. [11:16] Priest     Not just the church. [11:17] Priest     In this small village, there are fewer     places you have been than haven't. [11:24] Priest     Lilly, why are you wearing that? [11:28] Lilly     So I don't startle him. [11:30] Priest     Just let him be startled. [11:31] Priest     Now take that off. [11:33] Lilly     No. [11:34] Priest     Lilly. [11:37] Lilly     No! [11:44] Lilly     No! [11:46] Saybil     A m-mouse! [11:48] Lilly     No! No! Give it back! [11:51] Priest     Lilly... [11:51] Priest     Prepare a meal for our guest. [11:54] Lilly     What? [11:55] Lilly     B-But... [11:58] Priest     He eats meals at Mercenary's bar. [12:02] Lilly     But still... I'm a rodent. [12:05] Priest     Does that bother you? [12:07] Saybil     Does what bother me? [12:09] Priest     You don't understand my question? [12:11] Saybil     N-No, sorry. [12:14] Priest     If you don't understand, then all the better. [12:16] Saybil     You cook, Ms. Lilly? [12:21] Priest     What is it? [12:22] Saybil     Nothing. [12:22] Saybil     Do you not cook, Father? [12:25] Lilly     D-Don't! [12:26] Lilly     The Father's cooking is unbelievably bad. [12:29] Lilly     It's scary! [12:30] Saybil     So bad as to cause fear? [12:32] Priest     It's because I want our guest      to have a proper meal [12:36] Lilly     that I am asking you. [12:39] Priest     Go ahead. [12:41] Priest     Hot soup, bread, and honey. [12:45] Saybil     Honey? [12:47] Priest     We keep some bee hives in the forest. [12:49] Priest     And you were about to enter the     bees' territory with Laios. [12:56] Priest     The forest is a dangerous place. [12:58] Priest     At night, there are even wolves. [13:00] Priest     That's why adults harshly scold     children who try to enter the forest. [13:05] Saybil     I'm sorry. I didn't know. [13:09] Priest     Not knowing is not a sin. [13:12] Priest     But if you are going to     enter an unknown location, [13:16] Priest     you ought to learn about     whatever dangers you can. [13:21] Priest     It's a matter of life and death. [13:23] Priest     Do you want to die? [13:30] Lilly     Hey, um, [13:31] Lilly     the father is super ill-tempered. [13:34] Lilly     So no need to be down on yourself. [13:38] Saybil     O-Okay. [13:43] Saybil     This is delicious. [13:46] Priest     And so why did you enter the forest? [13:49] Saybil     Professor Los asked me to     fetch some of these for her. [13:54] Priest     This fragrance... Tea leaves, yes? [13:58] Priest     You didn't even find     out where they grow first? [14:01] Priest     If you had asked one of the     adults in the village, [14:03] Priest     you would have found them easily. [14:06] Priest     Since they grow next to Zero's house. [14:11] Priest     Ignorance is not a sin, [14:13] Priest     but realize that being content     with ignorance is harmful. [14:16] Priest     It might motivate you to learn. [14:20] Priest     Or do you [14:21] Priest     intend to spend your whole     life shut inside that shop? [14:25] Priest     Learning nothing, until one day     Zero tells you you've passed? [14:31] Hort     Sayb! [14:32] Hort     Wh-What's going on? [14:34] Hort     You almost never leave the shop. [14:38] Saybil     It's a long story. [14:40] Saybil     I was treated to lunch... [14:43] Hort     Was it Lilly's cooking?     Her food is delicious. [14:47] Hort     Still, no matter how good the food, [14:50] Hort     this is a bad look. [14:57] Saybil     Did you get hurt? [14:58] Saybil     There's blood on your sleeve. [15:00] Hort     No, not me... Mercenary. [15:05] Hort     Lately the forest creatures have been     trampling the neighboring village's fields. [15:11] Hort     So I headed out with Mercenary. [15:15] Hort     But on the way, we were     attacked by a pack of wolves. [15:21] Hort     I panicked and tried to cast... [15:25] Hort     But the incantation took too long. [15:28] Hort     Mercenary protected me, but... [15:32] Hort     I... hit him with my spell. [15:38] Hort     I came to get Lilly. [15:41] Hort     Mercenary wants her... to handle the bar... [15:47] Saybil     Hort. [15:48] Lilly     Hey, hey. Um... [15:51] Lilly     He got hit on purpose. [15:54] ---     Because he'd still be fine. [15:56] Hort     But he was incredibly mad. [15:59] Hort     He yelled at me not to start     incantations I can't finish. [16:02] Hort     Maybe I shouldn't become a mage! [16:08] Lilly     It's okay. It's okay. [16:14] Los     My goodness. [16:15] Saybil     I didn't expect for thee to run into Hort. [16:19] Los     Professor Los? [16:22] Los     Thou hast a job, Sayb! [16:24] Los     As a magic supplier! [16:37] Los     Mud-Black Witch! [16:39] Los     I have brought the magic supplier! [16:41] Zero     Thank you, Dawn Witch. [16:43] Zero     Apologies, young man. [16:45] Zero     I'll borrow a bit. [17:21] Mercenary     Was the kiss really necessary? [17:26] Zero     Getting jealous of the     kid who saved your life? [17:29] Zero     That's shameful, Mercenary. [17:35] Saybil     Um... [17:36] Priest     Is Hort going to be expelled? [17:39] Mercenary     What? [17:40] Mercenary     Is she? [17:43] Zero     I see no reason for it. [17:45] Saybil     But Hort said Mercenary was incredibly mad... [17:49] Mercenary     You're darn right I was! [17:51] Mercenary     It's a matter of life and death. [17:53] Mercenary     I ain't so nice that I'd     bother lecturin' somebody [17:55] Mercenary     I had no intention of teaming up with again. [17:58] Mercenary     I scolded her because     there'll be a next time. [18:03] Saybil     A next time... [18:05] Saybil     It's my fault for being tricked. [18:08] Laios     I'll have my daddy get mad at me. [18:11] Saybil     I see. There'll be a next time... [18:14] Saybil     I have to go see Laios. [18:18] Saybil     Oh. [18:19] Saybil     Um, [18:22] Saybil     Professor Zero... [18:23] Saybil     Please share some of these tea     leaves with Professor Los. [18:27] Zero     Bye. [18:31] Zero     It's more rational for him     to support the other two? [18:35] Zero     The young man said that? [18:36] Los     Indeed. [18:37] Los     So he's expending his energy     on cleaning and laundry, [18:40] Los     and staying shut inside the house. [18:44] Los     And so I asked him to gather tea leaves. [18:48] Los     I wanted to give him a reason to come here. [18:52] Los     In a small amount of time, he's fallen     quite far behind the other two. [18:58] Zero     Just because the other two are hurrying, [19:01] Zero     doesn't mean the young man must     run at the same speed, too. [19:05] Mercenary     It seems fine to me. [19:08] Mercenary     Why make him study if he doesn't want to? [19:11] Mercenary     He's contributing plenty     just being a magic supplier. [19:15] Zero     That is true. [19:19] Los     No, no, no! [19:22] Los     I wanna see my ducklings to     become crazy amazing mages, [19:25] Los     and watch them turn the world upside-down! [19:29] Los     What do we do? [19:30] Los     What if Sayb continues not to learn magic, [19:33] Los     and announces that he'll make     his living as a magic supplier? [19:36] Mercenary     I'd just let him do what he wants. [19:38] Mercenary     I need to get back to the bar. I'm leaving. [19:43] Albus     Can I really leave this to you? [19:45] Holdem     What, do you think I'm so incompetent     I can't even inspect the village? [19:51] Albus     Quit joking around. [19:52] Albus     You surely have some feelings     when it comes to Saybil. [19:57] Holdem     So you think I'd tie up a kid     who's never even met his father, [20:02] Holdem     and try him for his father's crimes? [20:06] Albus     I do, a little. [20:10] Los     Mud-Black Witch, why is Mercenary's     change of clothes here? [20:15] Zero     He frequently stays over. [20:19] Zero     My goodness. How far have you two gotten? [20:23] Zero     Is that truly what you wish to ask? [20:26] Los     Indeed. [20:29] Los     About the magic transfer earlier. [20:32] Zero     I know. [20:34] Zero     After saying I wouldn't turn a family     member into a tool for obtaining magic... [20:39] Los     That wasn't my point. [20:41] Los     Though I said some harsh     things the other day, [20:43] Los     if Sayb is operating a magic shop, then taking      the magic he provides is not a crime. [20:50] Los     And yet thou tookest only     the slightest bit of magic. [20:54] Los     Why? [20:55] Zero     If I as supervisor told him to give me all     the magic I want, it would be exploitation. [21:03] Zero     There is no guarantee his     well of magic won't run dry. [21:07] Los     But as things stand, [21:11] Los     thou wilt age and rot away. [21:15] Zero     That is normal, Dawn Witch. [21:18] Zero     I shall embrace it. [21:21] Zero     I won't fear it. [21:23] Zero     Besides, [21:25] Zero     I'll age and rot away with the one I love. [21:28] Zero     Compared to the alternative, [21:30] Zero     it's far better. [21:43] Young Albus     Why aren't you fighting? [21:46] Young Albus     You're Grandma's servant! [21:50] Young Albus     If you won't fight, then I will! [21:53] Holdem     My lady, you can't! [21:56] Albus     I'll defeat Thirteen and avenge Grandma! [22:03] the Tyrant     Now would be a good time to tell me. [22:06] the Tyrant     So, what is it ya want me to do? [22:17] Laios     Okay... [22:19] Saybil     Laios, let's go play in the forest tomorrow. SIGN    Next Episode ""I Can't Save Anything"" [23:57] Los     Edgelizord! [24:00] Kudo     Shut up! Shut up!

[00:06] Kudo     How am I back here? [00:09] Kudo     I remember there was an outbreak     in the village to the west... [00:14] (Flashback) Head of the Clinic     It's a contagious disease. [00:16] (Flashback) Head of the Clinic     Medicine could treat it, [00:18] (Flashback) Head of the Clinic     but they don't have the money to buy it. [00:21] (Flashback) Kudo     We don't need no medicine, Doctor. [00:25] (Flashback) Kudo     I'll cure them all with magic! [00:33] Hort     You woke up? [00:35] Hort     Give your thanks to the physician. [00:37] Hort     He carried you on his back     after you passed out. [00:41] Kudo     I passed out? [00:42] Saybil     You were magically depleted.     You tried to heal all 13 at once. [00:47] Saybil     You ran out of magic partway through. [00:51] Kudo     That makes me look lame! [00:53] Saybil     You missed out. [00:55] Saybil     If you had been conscious,     you could have eaten Lilly's cooking. [01:01] Kudo     Lilly's? [01:02] Kudo     Why was she cooking?     Did the old mercenary die? [01:07] Saybil     Sorry. I didn't mean to bring it back up. [01:09] Hort     I-It's fine. What happened     to him was my fault. [01:14] Kudo     You killed him?! [01:16] Hort     No! I just accidentally     hit him with a spell! [01:19] Kudo     So you tried to kill him? [01:21] Hort     Shut up! An edge-lizord who ran out     of magic has no room to criticize! [01:26] Saybil     Wow, Hort, that's really funny. [01:29] Kudo     "Edge-lizord?!" [01:31] Kudo     Why, you! I'll kill you even if it kills me! [01:35] Los     Be quiet! [01:36] Los     What possesses thee to shout a thing     like "I'll kill you" at night? [01:41] Kudo     Wh-Why're you here?     Did ya come to lecture us? [01:45] Hort     Well, we all really messed up today. [01:49] Saybil     Yeah. I got lost in the forest with Laios. [01:53] Los     Indeed. So tell me. [01:55] Los     How do you all intend      to face your deeds? [02:00] Hort     I won't use magic in actual combat     until I learn how to stop a spell. [02:07] Kudo     I'll... only use magic for emergency     cases and consult my boss for the rest. [02:13] Los     Consult? Thou meanest "seek his wisdom."

[02:27] Saybil     I'll start by leaving the house. [02:30] Saybil     I promised to play with Laios     in the forest tomorrow, [02:33] Saybil     but I asked his parents' permission. [02:35] Los     Very well. [02:38] Los     But if thou art going into the forest,     collect medicinal herbs. [02:42] Los     It shall double as a herbology lesson. [02:45] Kudo     Isn't Saybil getting off easy? [02:47] ---      [02:48] Hort     Nope. [02:49] Kudo     G-Get off me! You're heavy! [02:55] Los     Well, it seems you three know what to do, [02:58] Los     but you ought to go see the Mud-Black     Witch together tomorrow. [03:02] Hort     Huh? But what about work?

[04:49] Hort     Professor Los is kinda like a mom! [04:52] Kudo     Is that what moms are like? [04:54] Hort     She's not like my mom,     but she's strict yet kind. [04:59] Hort     And she's helpful and reliable. [05:00] Saybil     A mom... [05:03] Saybil     This is an incredible number of books. [05:06] Zero     This collection is the limited     fraction of books I keep on hand. [05:09] Zero     Most go to the Forbidden Library. [05:11] Saybil     The Forbidden Library? [05:13] Kudo     Niedora Fort. In the north. [05:16] Hort     You're from the north, right, Kudo? [05:19] Hort     Have you ever been there? [05:20] Kudo     Of course not. Duh. [05:22] Kudo     The Forbidden Library isn't on maps, [05:26] Kudo     since it's where they keep books     the Church has forbidden. [05:29] Zero     Thus, it's set up so you can't get     close if you don't know where it is. [05:34] Hort     Amazing! [05:35] Hort     I'm definitely gonna go someday. [05:37] Hort     Hey, let's all go together! [05:39] Saybil     Sure. [05:41] Kudo     That's a hell no from me. [05:43] Kudo     The north is crawling with     Remnants of Disaster. [05:46] Kudo     You'll be killed in the blink of an eye. [05:49] Saybil     Are these "Remnants of      Disaster" that dangerous? [05:52] Zero     Well... [05:54] Zero     If you encounter one while unprepared, [05:56] Zero     you'll either die tragically or     suffer so much, you'll wish you had. [06:00] Saybil     Maybe I don't really want to go, either. [06:03] Hort     Don't worry! I'll protect both of you! [06:07] Hort     If you supply magical energy and Kudo heals,     then, ta-dah! We're unstoppable! [06:14] Kudo     Yeah, yeah. [06:16] Kudo     A mage who nearly kills her party members [06:19] Kudo     and a medical mage who passes out mid-heal. [06:22] Hort     I-I'm gonna learn proper control! [06:25] Zero     Regarding that, [06:27] Zero     antlered girl, I have a     special lesson for you. [06:32] Zero     You won't be released until     you can cancel your spells. [06:37] Hort     Ahh! I'm sorry! I'm sorry I     hit Mercenary! Forgive me! [06:47] Kudo     Find a good book? [06:49] Saybil     Yeah. I think so. [06:51] Hort     Flagis! My name is Hort! [06:56] Hort     Disappear! [07:02] Zero     Hmm. Not too bad. This will do. [07:06] Hort     That was a close one. [07:08] Zero     Keep honing your skills like that. [07:11] Zero     As an exercise, I recommend using Flagis     to light all the candles in your home. [07:16] Hort     I-I don't have enough magic for that! [07:27] Zero     That just now was my expenditure     for one cast of Flagis. [07:31] Zero     The way to cast from your textbook     is ultimately just one example. [07:36] Zero     Try applying it in different ways. [07:38] Zero     Even if you expend too much magical energy, [07:41] Zero     you have a supplier— [07:48] Hort     P-Professor Zero! [07:53] Hort     Professor Zero! [07:54] Zero     I-I'm fine. [07:57] Zero     I'm just slightly depleted. [07:59] Hort     B-But... [08:02] Zero     Hey... [08:03] Saybil     Huh? [08:04] Saybil     The magic transfer isn't working. [08:07] Saybil     Maybe via the lips, like yesterday? [08:09] Hort     L-Lips?! [08:11] Zero     It's fine. [08:13] Zero     More importantly, I'm hungry. [08:15] Zero     I'll feel a little better once I eat... [08:20] Hort     Amazing, Sayb! [08:21] Hort     You're so strong! [08:23] Saybil     Could you two go to Mercenary and     bring some food back from the bar? [08:29] Hort     You got it! [08:30] Saybil     I'll carry Professor Zero inside. [08:39] Saybil     It's still not working. [08:41] Saybil     Why? [08:42] Zero     You have nothing to worry about. Try to stab     me through the heart with this knife. [08:47] Zero     Even if I said that, most people     couldn't bring themselves to try. [08:51] Zero     I could probably fully rob you of magic. [08:56] Zero     I'm a natural enemy to you. [09:01] Saybil     The same color as mine... [09:04] (Flashback) Zero     Your eyes [09:05] (Flashback) Zero     are the same as mine, young man. [09:09] Saybil     Professor Zero. [09:11] Saybil     My mother... [09:13] Saybil     do you know her? [09:15] Zero     No. [09:18] Zero     Your father, on the other hand... [09:20] Saybil     My father... [09:22] Saybil     Oh, right. I have a father, too. [09:26] Zero     That book. Did you take it from my library? [09:29] Saybil     Oh, yes. [09:32] Saybil     I'm going into the forest today, so I     wanted a book about medicinal herbs. [09:36] Zero     The penmanship is terrible,     isn't it? Extraordinarily so. [09:40] Zero     It took me a lot of effort to decipher it. [09:43] Saybil     Not at all. My handwriting is similar,     so it's easy to understand. [09:48] Zero     I see. [09:50] Zero     I'm sure the author would     be upset to hear that. [09:53] Zero     Witches employ tricks to prevent others     from using the knowledge in their books. [10:00] Saybil     What? Does that include this book? [10:03] Zero     However, I failed to discover any tricks. [10:07] Zero     After all, the medicines are plenty effective     if you follow the book's instructions exactly. [10:13] Zero     They're that effective, and yet to     the author, they're still defective. [10:18] Zero     That's the sort of information     written in that tome. [10:20] Saybil     It's an incredible book. [10:22] Saybil     What sort of witch wrote it, I wonder? [10:25] Zero     A sorcerer. [10:26] Saybil     Huh? [10:27] Zero     It was a sorcerer who wrote that     book. In other words, a man. [10:33] Saybil     You mean it was my father? [10:35] Zero     He was a sorcerer with unparalleled talent. [10:38] Zero     Always calm, deeply inquisitive,     and totally unshakable. [10:44] Saybil     Wow. I'm not like him at all. [10:48] Zero     Actually, it would be a     big deal if you were. [10:50] Zero     Still, you described that     book as "easy to understand." [10:54] Zero     Perhaps you'll uncover the book's secrets. [10:59] Zero     It would appear he came. [11:00] Saybil     Mercenary? That was fast. [11:03] Zero     He must have run here full bore     the moment he was informed, [11:09] Zero     but paused to catch his breath, and now      intentionally ascends the stairs slowly. [11:14] Zero     That's just how he is. [11:18] Mercenary     Hey, there. You're looking     better than I expected. [11:22] Mercenary     Wh-What? [11:23] Mercenary     What're you looking at? [11:26] Zero     Do I spy smoked pork? And sausage, too! [11:29] Mercenary     Sorry. Thanks for staying with her. [11:33] Saybil     It was nothing. Sorry I couldn't     supply her with magic, [11:36] Saybil     even though it's my job. [11:38] Mercenary     Listen. About that... [11:41] Zero     Wait, Mercenary. [11:42] Zero     I'll say it. [11:44] Zero     Young man, you... [11:47] Laios     So, for those tea leaves, you're looking for     a red flower blooming at the base of a tree. [11:53] Laios     Sayb! [11:55] Saybil     Huh? [11:55] Laios     You're staring off into space! [11:58] Saybil     Oh, sorry. I had something on my mind. [12:02] Saybil     Laios, these mushrooms are edible. [12:06] Saybil     This tree supposedly bears fruit. [12:10] Saybil     Laios, stop! Touching that     will make you itchy. [12:13] Laios     What? [12:14] Laios     Sayb, you seem really grown-up today! [12:18] Saybil     Huh? I do? [12:19] Laios     I mean, you can read books because     you're a grown-up, right? [12:24] Saybil     If you study, you'll be able     to read soon, too, Laios. [12:27] Laios     Really? You don't just learn     to read when you grow up? [12:32] Saybil     No, it doesn't just happen automatically. [12:35] (Flashback) Zero     Do you want to be a magic supplier? [12:38] (Flashback) Zero     Or do you want to be a mage? [12:42] (Flashback) Zero     I had you three set up shops here     to further your studies as mages. [12:47] (Flashback) Zero     If you have no desire to be a mage, [12:50] (Flashback) Zero     then there is nothing for you to learn here. [12:54] (Flashback) Saybil     I... [12:56] (Flashback) Zero     Take some time to think [12:59] (Flashback) Zero     about the path you want to take. [13:04] Saybil     A dead animal. [13:06] Saybil     Was it attacked by wolves? [13:08] Laios     What? Wolves? [13:10] Laios     But you can beat wolves with     your magic, right, Sayb? [13:15] Saybil     Uh, no... I... [13:18] Laios     We made it! Red flowers! [13:21] Laios     This has gotta be it, right, Sayb? [13:24] Saybil     Yeah. [13:25] Laios     Check us out! We found them all on our own! [13:32] Laios     We're an adventuring party! [13:34] Laios     Where should we go tomorrow? [13:36] Saybil     Um... [13:38] Laios     What, you don't want to? [13:40] Saybil     That's not it. It's just that     I have to practice magic. [13:44] Laios     Oh. Yeah... [13:45] Laios     Grown-ups are busy. [13:50] Saybil     Do you want to go out with     me while I practice magic? [13:56] Laios     So, you'll practice magic with me every day? [13:59] Saybil     Yep. [14:00] Laios     Yay! [14:01] Laios     Sayb, we're gonna be married! [14:03] Saybil     That's taking it a little far... [14:11] Saybil     Laios, we'd better head ba— [14:16] Laios     Sayb? [14:19] Saybil     Laios, [14:20] Saybil     get down! [14:40] Laios     Sayb, I... [14:47] Saybil     Laios! [14:52] Saybil     Laios, hang on! [14:55] Laios     What do I do... [14:57] Laios     I'm causing problems again... [15:01] Priest     Healing magic! [15:02] Saybil     I can't. I've never cast it successfully. [15:05] Saybil     What do I do? [15:12] Laios     It hurts. It hurts, Sayb. [15:20] Saybil     Hang on, Laios. [15:23] Saybil     It's gonna be okay. [15:27] Laios     It hur... [15:31] Saybil     Laios. [15:33] Saybil     Laios! [15:37] Saybil     His breathing... [15:39] Saybil     You have to hold on! [15:40] Saybil     We're almost out of the forest!      We're almost there! [15:46] Saybil     Why... [15:48] Saybil     Why didn't I practice? [15:51] Saybil     Even the simplest spell would have helped. [15:54] Saybil     Somebody! [15:57] Saybil     Professor Los! [16:03] Los     Get up, Sayb! Get up! [16:07] Los     Run! The Mud-Black Witch is on the way. [16:10] Los     Laios isn't dead yet! Get up and run! [16:14] Saybil     Professor Los... [16:26] Saybil     Gotta make it... Gotta get there in time! [16:38] Saybil     Professor Zero! Mercenary! [16:43] Saybil     I-I'm sorry... [16:45] Saybil     I... [16:47] Saybil     failed again... [16:48] Mercenary     Don't be stupid! [16:50] Mercenary     You successfully protected him! [16:52] Mercenary     You persevered and reached us! [16:54] Zero     He's suffering from blood loss... [16:55] Los     Incoming! [16:58] Zero     Dawn Witch! Give me your blood! [17:01] Los     Very well! [17:02] Los     Take it! [17:08] Los     I have plenty to give! [17:16] Kudo     So you collapsed from blood loss, [17:19] Kudo     and you from magic depletion? [17:23] Los     I know I said I had plenty, [17:26] Los     but thou didst truly take     too much all at once. [17:30] Zero     I had to act quickly, [17:32] Zero     but you're the one who     slashed your wrist open! [17:35] Kudo     Shut yer yaps and get some rest! [17:38] Kudo     Saybil, how long are you gonna cry? [17:42] Saybil     Sorry. It just won't stop... [17:46] Hort     You can cry. [17:47] Hort     Just keep letting the tears     out until they stop. [17:51] Kudo     Then Laios will laugh at hi— [17:54] Kudo     Huh? [17:55] Kudo     Where'd he go? [17:57] Laios     Get this! Sayb and I [18:00] Laios     fought a monster! [18:02] Laios     Then I was gravely wounded protecting him— [18:06] Uls     Laios... [18:08] Laios     D-D-Daddy! [18:10] Los     It must have been a Remnant of Disaster. [18:14] Los     I saw a very similar illustration     in a book at the Forbidden Library. [18:18] Los     It disguises itself as a dead     animal to lure in prey. [18:22] Los     The many barbs it launches suck blood, [18:26] Los     and then sprout limbs and climb     up a tree to await more prey. [18:32] Los     I believe it was labeled "Touch-Me-Not." [18:37] Los     'Tis a plaything demons created     to torment and kill humans. [18:43] Los     They were created in the     Disasters of the North, [18:44] Los     and even with the demons gone,     they continue to multiply. [18:50] Zero     But the Church & Mage     Army's line of defense [18:54] Zero     ought to prevent them      from venturing south. [18:57] Zero     That one suddenly appeared     in the forest means [19:00] Zero     someone set it loose there. [19:03] Zero     I am exceedingly displeased. [19:07] Mercenary     I'll go pay the father a little visit. [19:10] Zero     I'll go, too. [19:11] Mercenary     Stay in bed. [19:15] Mercenary     Oh? What're you doin' here, dog-face? [19:18] Holdem     I'm a wolf! [19:21] Mercenary     Someone's catching Remnants of     Disaster and sellin' 'em off? [19:26] Holdem     Yeah. [19:27] Holdem     I thought it was hogwash, but if one was      in the village, it's a different story. [19:32] Priest     The Church accepted peace with witches. [19:35] Priest     Anyone who seeks to fracture      that peace is a heretic. [19:42] Priest     Time to gather information. [19:44] Priest     Let's go, Lilly. [19:45] Lilly     Wait, I'm coming, too? [19:47] Priest     We have a rat to sniff out.     That's your forte. [19:51] Lilly     But if I leave the village... [19:53] Priest     Then what? [19:55] Priest     Being in the village didn't enable     you to find the creature. [20:01] Lilly     Um, my friends... they're all scared... [20:05] Lilly     They can't get near the thing that     looks like... a ball of thorns. [20:10] Lilly     They can't see it because     they can't get near it. [20:12] Mercenary     Calm down, little one. [20:14] Mercenary     The father isn't blaming you. [20:16] Mercenary     I got reports that the forest     creatures were acting strange, [20:21] Mercenary     but I didn't try to find out why. [20:23] Mercenary     I'm at fault, too. [20:25] Mercenary     I need to go inform     the neighboring village. [20:29] Holdem     And leave this village with weak defenses? [20:32] Mercenary     This isn't an outsider's business. [20:35] Holdem     I'm here to conduct a surprise inspection. [20:37] Mercenary     An inspection? Oh, because     you're incompetent and idle. [20:41] Holdem     Because I'm the most competent! [20:44] Mercenary     That's fine. [20:46] Mercenary     If we have someone so capable with us,      we can't let that go to waste. [20:52] Mercenary     The priest and I are leaving the village. [20:54] Mercenary     A worn-out witch and the old biddy     with the staff may not be enough. [20:59] Mercenary     Please protect them. [21:01] Holdem     You sure you want to leave them to me? [21:04] Holdem     I failed to protect the woman     who is most important to me. [21:07] Mercenary     You're not the only one whose regrets and     failures wake them up at night, dog-face. [21:14] Priest     If you want to play the tragic hero, [21:17] Priest     wait until you've killed the one     you love with your own hands first. [21:22] Holdem     What, is this a sob story contest? [21:25] Mercenary     So it's settled. [21:27] Mercenary     H-Hey! [21:29] Mercenary     What are you doing? Go lie down! [21:32] Zero     I knew you were planning to leave me behind. [21:37] Mercenary     I mean, you're suffering     from magic depletion. [21:41] Zero     I'm still a witch. I can protect you. [21:45] Holdem     I think you should take the     Mud-Black Witch with you. [21:48] Holdem     We beastfallen are made     to work with witches. [21:54] Mercenary     Can it, dog-face. [21:55] Priest     Or, rather, if Zero has decided     to go, we cannot stop her. [22:01] Lilly     I think you two should stay together! [22:05] Zero     Mercenary. [22:07] Zero     It's unanimous. Accept it. [22:10] Priest     We'll be going now. [22:12] Lilly     W-Wait for me! [22:14] Lilly     We haven't been to the city in so long! [22:17] Priest     We aren't visiting for fun. [23:55] Laios     Did you see? I played a really big part! SIGN    Next Episode "Respective Costs" [23:58] Uls     Laios, stay away from Saybil. [24:01] Laios     What? How come?

[00:01] Holdem     And that's why, [00:02] Holdem     on a temporary basis, [00:03] Holdem     I have been entrusted with     protecting this village. [00:08] Hort     Who is he? [00:09] Kudo     The Headmaster's servant. [00:12] Hort     Um, Mr. Headmaster's Servant? [00:16] Holdem     Holdem. Chief of Security. Super capable. [00:20] Hort     Mr. Super-Capable Chief of Security Holdem, [00:24] Hort     in the last test I got pretty darn hurt. [00:27] Hort     Are you here to do awful     stuff again this time? [00:31] Holdem     My purpose here is to inspect the village. [00:34] ---     I just happened to have this foisted on me [00:37] Holdem     because I'm capable. [00:39] Saybil     He's awfully insistent about that. [00:40] Hort     Is he actually capable? [00:42] Kudo     He's known for his nasty personality. [00:46] Holdem     You're an unendearing bunch! [00:48] Holdem     Okay, announcement over.     Now scram. Scram! Go! [00:52] Holdem     Ugh, kids. [00:54] Los     So, [00:55] Los     why art thou really here? [00:59] Los     Just as a Remnant of Disaster appears,     thou showest up to inspect. [01:05] Los     It hardly seems unrelated. [01:07] Holdem     It is unrelated. [01:09] ---     If I used a Remnant of Disaster,     the village would fall. [01:13] Los     I shall believe thee. [01:15] Holdem     About that Remnant problem... [01:18] Holdem     Can you take care of it? [01:20] Los     "Take care of it?" [01:22] Holdem     The one thing I appreciate     about you is your skills. [01:25] ---     You're the sole witch my master relied on. [01:30] Los     Well, Sorena was my friend, after all... [01:41] Los     Sorena died protecting people.      She would ask me to protect the village. [01:51] Los     As for compensation? [01:53] Holdem     Access to The Grimoire of Zero. [01:55] Los     What?! [01:56] Holdem     Please, Loux. I swear, I'll persuade my lady. [01:59] Holdem     This village is her dream. [02:02] Holdem     We'll do anything to protect it. [02:07] Los     Even trust me? I see! [03:42] Hort     Huh? You want to get stronger? SIGN    Episode 8 Respective Costs [03:44] Saybil     Yeah. Today I decided I want to     be a proper mage like you two. [03:50] Hort     Of course! Let's graduate together     and become mages together! [03:54] Saybil     But... I don't think I'll be able     to keep doing the chores like I was. [03:59] Saybil     Like the laundry... [04:02] Hort     Like I said before! You don't     have to wash... my clothes! [04:08] Los     Hurry home, you three. [04:11] Los     O-Oh... [04:12] Hort     Professor Los? [04:14] Los     No need for concern. [04:16] Holdem     You better be okay... [04:19] Holdem     I'd still lose some sleep if you died. [04:34] Saybil     So... what I wanted to ask... is... [04:38] Saybil     I want you two to teach me to cast. [04:42] ---     In exchange, I'll restore your magic. [04:46] Kudo     Sounds fine to me. [04:47] ---     Actually, I thought it was nuts that     you didn't ask for anything before. [04:51] Hort     To be honest, I felt like we     leaned on you a little too much. [04:56] Hort     Wh-While we're on the subject, [04:58] Hort     I was curious about something... [05:01] Hort     Sayb, sometimes you... supply     magic through your l-lips, right? [05:08] Hort     So, um, like! Does that mean     you might do that with me? [05:14] Saybil     Huh? No, I don't think so. [05:18] Hort     Y-You won't, huh? I see! [05:23] Kudo     I'm surprised you're unfazed by it, dude. [05:27] Saybil     By what? [05:28] Kudo     Think about it with the genders swapped. [05:30] Saybil     Gender... swap? [05:36] "Male Zero"     I want to devour you. [05:40] "Male Los"     This is the difference experience makes. [05:46] Saybil     I don't really see an issue. [05:48] Hort     You can't do that! [05:50] Hort     It's against morality! [05:51] Hort     A mortal sin! [05:53] Hort     I won't let that happen to my Saybina! [05:56] Saybil     "Saybina"? [05:57] Kudo     "My"? [05:58] Holdem     Hey. [06:00] Holdem     Can you show me to an empty     house where I can rest? [06:04] Hort     Sure. I'll take you. [06:06] Holdem     That won't do. [06:08] Holdem     I can't go to an empty house     alone with a young maiden. [06:12] Holdem     The village's population will increase. [06:17] Hort     What a creep! [06:18] Kudo     We should file a complaint     with the Headmaster. [06:21] Holdem     I-I'm sorry! [06:23] Holdem     Please! Just don't tell my lady! [06:24] Uls     Saybil. [06:27] Saybil     Mr. Uls... [06:29] Uls     We need to talk. [06:31] Hort     I-In that case, we'll take Mr. Holdem. [06:39] Uls     I know it's not your fault. [06:41] Uls     Laios cried and defended you. [06:45] Saybil     Sir, I... [06:46] Uls     Still, I'm sorry, [06:48] ---     but I need you to stay away from our son. [06:59] Saybil     Yes, sir.

[07:14] Saybil     Once I'm strong enough to protect him,     may I take him out again? [07:20] Saybil     I promised him we'd play adventurers again. [07:25] Uls     It's just a promise to a kid. [07:28] Saybil     But we're friends. [07:35] Uls     I'll teach Laios a little more about     staying safe in the forest by then. [07:43] the Tyrant     Careless of ya.

[10:40] Saybil     Um, I think I'll probably be a     disappointment to your employer. [10:45] the Tyrant     Not my problem. [10:47] the Tyrant     I'm a tool. I just get used for my purpose. [10:52] Zero     Damn. Someone's caught up to us. [10:55] Kudo     Hey! You said you could drive the horses! [10:58] Hort     I am driving them! They're flying     forward, aren't they? See?

[11:43] Los     If such an easy task gets me a     peek at The Grimoire of Zero, [11:46] Los     then it's not even a question. [11:48] Los     Right, my dear Ludens? [11:55] Los     What's this? [11:57] Los     H-Help me. [12:01] Los     My goodness. This is an unexpected find. [12:07] Hort     How is the Tyrant here? [12:09] Kudo     Hell if I know! But we're rescuing     Saybil no matter who we have to fight. [12:14] Hort     It's moving! [12:15] Kudo     Quiet! Just do it already! [12:18] Kudo     Full power! [12:19] Hort     Okay. [12:28] the Tyrant     No incantation? [12:36] the Tyrant     I see you've improved since last time. [12:41] Saybil     Please don't move. I can probably     kill you in an instant. [12:50] Los     What's this? [12:52] Los     The third-rate servant. [12:54] Los     Why art thou sleeping out here? [12:59] Holdem     Why was I sleeping out here? [13:01] Los     Art thou drunk? [13:03] Holdem     No. I was about to have the kids     take me to an empty house, [13:08] ---     when that Uls fellow there showed up... [13:12] Holdem     He said something about     Saybil being abducted... [13:16] Holdem     I tried to stop the kids     from going after him. [13:19] Holdem     But then I... [13:22] Los     Thou wert put to sleep, with magic. [13:25] Holdem     So then... [13:28] Holdem     Oh crap! No! [13:30] Los     What hast thou so flustered?     'Tis thy trap, is it not? [13:34] Los     Thou camest all the way out to this village. [13:37] Los     Thy plan was to cause an incident and     observe whether we could resolve it. [13:42] Los     As a sort of test, yes? [13:45] Los     My ducklings assuredly felt wary of you. [13:52] Holdem     You don't think I might be trying     to actually do something to Saybil? [13:58] Los     Sorena wouldn't approve. [14:01] Los     So, what is the issue? [14:04] Holdem     I used the Tyrant. [14:06] Los     Thou didst what?! [14:08] the Tyrant     Then ya shoulda [14:13] the Tyrant     killed me just now. [14:15] the Tyrant     In combat... [14:19] Hort     Sayb! [14:19] Kudo     Saybil! [14:21] the Tyrant     whoever hesitates loses! [14:28] the Tyrant     If ya ain't prepared to kill     when ya have the chance, [14:31] the Tyrant     it don't matter how strong     your weapon is. It's useless. [14:35] the Tyrant     I'd say this is within acceptable limits. [14:38] the Tyrant     Seein' as how ya can fix it all with magic. [14:49] the Tyrant     The Mask? [14:51] the Tyrant     Bastard! [14:53] the Tyrant     Didn't you leave the village? [14:56] Priest     I'm impressed you knew. [14:58] Priest     I came back. [15:05] Priest     My mouse made a big fuss about     a pest entering the village. [15:12] Priest     Now I can finally see. [15:16] Priest     Don't worry. I'll take you alive. [15:19] Priest     There is so much information [15:21] Priest     to glean from you. [15:30] Priest     This is within acceptable limits, yes? [15:32] Priest     Since it can be fixed with magic. [15:35] the Tyrant     Fighting the Mask in the forest at     night is too big of a disadvantage. [15:40] the Tyrant     Plus you have reinforcements     coming. I give up. [15:47] Mercenary     See. I knew the priest would be here. [15:50] Zero     Quit grumbling, Mercenary. [15:53] Zero     If we hadn't raced here, [15:55] ---     our blood-starved priest might     have julienned our assailant. [16:01] Mercenary     Looks like he's already     been given a rough chop. [16:04] Priest     That is quite a way to speak     when you two arrived late. [16:09] Los     Hold it, hold it hold it! [16:11] Los     You barbarians! [16:13] Los     'Tis shameful to gang up     on and bully the weak! [16:17] Holdem     He took out all the students. [16:20] Holdem     The Tyrant is tougher than I thought. [16:24] Mercenary     Oh? So you two know him? [16:30] Zero     Depending on your answer, [16:31] Zero     we may be send your head back to the     Mooncaller Witch at the Academy. [16:41] Holdem     Look, the deal with the Tyrant was     he would be spared the death penalty [16:46] Holdem     if he could bring at least one     student back to the Academy. [16:50] Los     In other words, this wasn't     a test for the students. [16:55] Los     It was an inspection of the     village's ability to protect them. [17:00] Los     That's why he set the Tyrant loose, [17:03] Los     but the students were wary of Holdem,     who was obviously suspicious. [17:08] Los     They removed him from the     fight as soon as it started, [17:12] Los     thus he was unable to restrain     the Tyrant's excessive violence, [17:17] Los     and he was late to arrive. [17:21] Priest     Are you incompetent? [17:22] Mercenary     What are ya, incompetent? [17:24] Holdem     Yes. I'm incompetent     and a third-rate servant. [17:28] Zero     It does no good to blame the dog. [17:31] Zero     If the Tyrant's aim had been murder, [17:33] Zero     the students would all have been killed. [17:37] Zero     We have no choice but to recognize [17:40] Zero     that this inspection fully exposed the     weakness of the village's defenses. [17:46] Mercenary     We were just short on hands this time     because of the Remnant of Disaster. [17:52] Priest     More accurate to say we lack fighting power. [17:55] Priest     If it were just this village,     it would be one thing, [17:57] Priest     but if we try to protect the surrounding     ones as well, we cannot attend to it all. [18:01] Mercenary     The towns around us are just     getting dragged into our mess. [18:06] Mercenary     We can't just leave 'em in the lurch. [18:09] Zero     If witches bring extra danger and     then do nothing to protect people, [18:14] Zero     the village may only worsen     the reputation of witches. [18:18] Holdem     Um, might I be permitted to say somethin— [18:21] Priest     Keep quiet. [18:21] Holdem     I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! [18:22] Mercenary     Incompetence is contagious. [18:24] Zero     Don't bully him so. Well, let's hear it. [18:28] Holdem     If you need more fighting power,     please feel free to make use of him. [18:34] the Tyrant     H-Hold up! That wasn't the deal! [18:39] the Tyrant     Once I succeeded, my death sentence     was supposed to be commuted— [18:44] Holdem     You didn't succeed! [18:46] Holdem     If you want to live, zip it! [18:56] Hort     No way! [18:58] Hort     No way! Nuh-uh! Absolutely opposed! [19:02] Hort     He betrayed the Church, right? [19:04] Hort     Someone like that will betray us next! [19:07] Kudo     You betrayed the Church, too. [19:10] Hort     Kudo, why do you always say the     thing someone least wants to hear? [19:15] Hort     The Tyrant tried to kill us! [19:18] Hort     You're telling me to forgive him? [19:20] Hort     It's better to execute him! [19:23] Zero     You need not forgive him, antlered girl. [19:27] Zero     If you desire revenge, I won't condemn you. [19:31] Zero     However, there is one     thing you must remember. [19:35] Zero     Witch hunts are revenge for     witches' past wrongdoings. [19:40] Zero     Those very wrongdoings are why witches     continue to be regarded with suspicion. [19:46] Zero     The peace between the Church and witches... [19:48] Zero     Those whose loved ones were killed by     witches find it difficult to accept. [19:52] Zero     I'm sure you understand their feelings. [19:55] Zero     That is the very reason the anti-witch     faction hires people like the Tyrant. [20:00] Zero     The Tyrant has been ordered to serve     this village to atone for his sins. [20:05] Zero     You must consider the purpose and     significance of executing him now. [20:14] Hort     But the Tyrant has killed     lots of innocent people, too. [20:19] Priest     The same is true of me. [20:22] Priest     I killed anybody the Church ordered me to. [20:26] Priest     Will you execute me as well? [20:28] Hort     B-But tha— [20:29] Lilly     You can't! [20:31] Lilly     You can't execute the father! [20:34] Hort     He's not the same as the Tyrant. [20:37] Los     Well, my dear Ludens is known as the witch     eater and has taken the lives of many witches. [20:44] Los     If one of their relatives comes for me,     I have no right to complain. [20:49] Hort     No way! It's obviously not right     for you to be killed, Professor! [20:54] Kudo     What, so anyone you like is a good person     no matter how many people they've killed? [21:00] Hort     So you're fine with this? [21:02] Kudo     As long as he's on our side. [21:06] Hort     He can't be trusted to be on our side! [21:08] Hort     He might attack us! [21:10] Kudo     If he does, we can just kill him then. [21:13] Kudo     You'll be able to take him     out for sure next time. [21:16] Hort     But what if he attacks     Sayb while I'm not around? [21:20] Hort     Sayb will be killed! [21:22] Saybil     Sorry for not being reliable. [21:24] Hort     That's not what I was saying. [21:27] Kudo     Fine. This is a pain in the butt,      so let's just execute him. [21:31] Saybil     You love to take arguments to extremes. [21:34] Hort     Argh! [21:35] Hort     Ugh! [21:36] Hort     Fine! I'll monitor him, then! [21:41] Hort     We'll have him live in this bar,     so Mr. Mercenary can monitor him. [21:46] Hort     And when I monitor him,     I'll work his butt off. [21:50] Mercenary     Excuse me? He's gonna live in my bar?! [21:57] Los     Hort, you made a painful decision. [22:00] Hort     I mean, after what everyone said... [22:04] Los     You determined that letting the     Tyrant live would be best, [22:08] ---     and you put your own feelings aside. [22:12] Los     'Tis a feat even adults     struggle to accomplish. [22:20] Hort     Professor Los! SIGN    Next Episode "A Stone Cast Into the Pond" [23:55] Los     Now this is exciting! [23:57] Los     If his memories return, then will     his romance with Hort progress? [24:01] Saybil     Next episode: "A Stone Cast Into the Pond." [24:04] Saybil     I think I might like Professor Los. [24:09] Los     Excuse me?

[00:03] Holdem     I'll take you to the Forbidden     Library, as promised. [00:06] Los     Right now I am more preoccupied with     my ducklings than The Grimoire of Zero. [00:12] Los     They grow dramatically      before one knows it. [00:15] ---     I can't take my eyes off them. [00:17] Holdem     Well, to you, a few years     is like the blink of an eye. [00:22] Los     True. [00:23] Los     I didn't see thee for a short     time and thou hast grown old. [00:27] Los     The next time I see thee,     thou mightest be dead of old age. [00:31] Holdem     I always look young and spry! [00:44] Hort     You got your memories back?! [00:48] Saybil     Yeah. But they're not very good memories. [00:53] Hort     Do you wanna forget again?     Want a smack to the head? [00:56] Saybil     No thanks. [00:57] Saybil     But it barely feels like I remembered. [01:01] Saybil     I thought things would be     different once I remembered. [01:04] Saybil     But I still know nothing... [01:06] Hort     What do you mean? [01:11] Saybil     What is it like to have      feelings for someone? [01:14] Hort     Huh?! [01:16] Saybil     Professor Los says that     you're in love with me. [01:21] Hort     What?! Um... [01:22] Hort     I... [01:26] Saybil     I was wondering what normally     happens when you like someone. [01:30] Hort     Well... you want to be     special to them, I guess... [01:36] Saybil     You are special to me, Hort. [01:39] ---     Is this love? [01:41] Hort     What? [01:44] Hort     No. I don't think it is. [01:48] Saybil     Oh. Sorry. [01:50] Hort     It's okay! [01:52] Hort     I'm happy you're asking     me for love advice, Sayb! [01:56] Hort     Oh, how about this. [01:58] Hort     Who comes to mind when     you think you might die? [02:02] Saybil     When I think I might die? [02:09] Saybil     Oh... [02:10] Saybil     I think I might like Professor Los. [02:19] Hort     I get that. [02:21] Hort     I adore Professor Los, too! [02:25] Hort     You can always talk to me, so promise me! [02:29] Hort     That you'll come to me for love advice first! [02:34] Saybil     Th-Thanks. [02:36] Saybil     I wish there were something     I could do for you, too. [02:40] Hort     How about a morning magic supply?      Is that okay? [02:44] Hort     Thanks! [02:45] Saybil     Sure. [02:57] Saybil     I can't! [02:58] Hort     What? [03:00] Saybil     Sorry, Hort. [03:02] Saybil     I need to go see Professor Zero. SIGN    Episode 9 A Stone Cast Into the Pond [04:51] Saybil     I think I might like Professor Los. [04:57] Los     Yes! I shall pretend I never heard that! [05:00] Hort     Professor Los! Professor Los! [05:02] Hort     Sayb says he likes you! [05:08] Hort     P-Professor Los? [05:13] Los     Hort, one should not go around blabbing     someone else's feelings to others. [05:29] Saybil     Professor Zero, [05:31] Saybil     I, um... [05:34] Zero     Sit down, young man. [05:36] ---     Then we can talk. [05:40] Hort     Professor Los, you won't leave us, will you? [05:43] Los     Why dost thou ask that? [05:45] Hort     'Cause teachers run when a     student falls for them, right? [05:50] Hort     Since it's a burden and a pain. [05:53] Hort     I know, because something like     that happened at the Church! [05:58] Los     I should like to dissemble,     but I am fond of keen insight. [06:02] Los     Just as thou fearest,     I am the type of teacher who runs. [06:08] Hort     No! Please, no! [06:10] Hort     I don't want you to leave, Professor! [06:13] Hort     And it would be so sad for Sayb, too,     if the person he likes disappears! [06:18] Los     That's why I was going to pretend     not to have heard anything... [06:22] Los     Worry not. I have yet to     tire of observing you three. [06:32] Zero     It happened sooner than I expected. [06:35] Zero     And your reaction is calmer     than I feared it would be. [06:38] Saybil     But I was frantic when I got here. [06:41] Zero     True, you were. [06:44] Zero     But you weren't trembling with fear, [06:47] Zero     nor were you a captive of despair. [06:49] Zero     You have gained the strength not     to be crushed by your memories. [06:54] Saybil     Crushed by my memories? [06:57] Zero     Unpleasant memories can at times become a     poison that eats away at you from the inside. [07:08] Saybil     Why did I suddenly remember? [07:12] Zero     I imagine because your life was in danger. [07:15] Zero     In other words, you sought to live. [07:19] Zero     Young man, you are no longer empty. [07:23] Zero     You sought a way to fight, even if it meant     dredging up painful memories. [07:29] Saybil     My mother told me something. [07:31] Saybil     She said never approach a     witch with eyes like mine. [07:37] Zero     These eyes are somewhat special. [07:40] Zero     They are something my brother     and I inherited from our father. [07:45] Zero     And that brother is your father, Thirteen. [07:55] Zero     Thirteen and I are each other's     last remaining brethren. [08:02] Zero     Perhaps that's why he would have done     anything for me, even destroy the world. [08:08] Zero     Your magic is part of that. [08:10] Zero     He plotted for it all to be offered up to me. [08:14] Zero     He must have realized that if his     blood and your mother's combined, [08:18] Zero     he would obtain a child with limitless magic. [08:23] Zero     Your mother caught on and fled. [08:29] Saybil     So then... you're... [08:31] Zero     That makes me your aunt. [08:33] Saybil     So there's not really     any danger. Isn't that right? [08:37] Zero     Even so, most of the pain you've     experienced is my fault. [08:41] Saybil     It may have been because of you,     but that doesn't mean it was your fault. [08:46] Saybil     Besides. If not for you,     Professor Zero, I would not exist. [08:54] Zero     You take after him. [08:56] Saybil     After my father? [08:58] Zero     Only in the good aspects, I mean. [09:01] Saybil     I want to hear about my father. [09:04] Saybil     Or, I mean, I want to know. [09:07] Saybil     To know just who I am... [09:10] Zero     Your father was a thorough rationalist. [09:14] Zero     If it was rational, [09:16] ---     he could even work with someone who     was a mortal enemy moments earlier. [09:19] Zero     But rationality at times leads to cruelty. [09:24] Zero     As a result of his extreme rationalism,     he committed a grave, irreparable misdeed. [09:31] Zero     The war. [09:33] Zero     To obtain a world for witches,     Thirteen sacrificed countless lives. [09:38] Zero     An evil sorcerer whose name     will go down in history. [09:41] Zero     That is my brother, your father. [09:45] Saybil     I feel like I know a little     better what I want to be. [09:50] Saybil     This morning I went to supply Hort     with magic, but I couldn't do it. [09:56] Saybil     I felt like I might kill Hort,     and I got scared. [10:01] Zero     I see. [10:02] Saybil     But I want to keep being a magic supplier, [10:07] Saybil     at least during the field program. [10:10] Zero     For your friends? [10:12] Saybil     For me. [10:14] Saybil     Hort and Kudo are going to     teach me magic in exchange. [10:18] Saybil     So please let me practice on you, Professor. [10:20] Saybil     Since even if I mess up,     you won't die. [10:28] Saybil     What? Both hands? [10:29] Zero     We'll circulate magic between us. [10:32] ---     Keep adjusting so the amount stays constant. [10:44] Saybil     Kudo! [10:47] Zero     Be calm. Don't break your concentration. [10:49] Zero     Sorcery and magic require concentration. [10:52] Zero     If you stop your incantation every     time a comrade screams in combat, [10:57] Zero     you'll lose people you could have saved. [10:59] Saybil     But... [11:01] Saybil     I'll become stronger. [11:04] Zero     Yes. You will indeed get stronger. [11:07] ---     Perhaps even stronger than I. [11:10] Los     My goodness. [11:13] Los     It seems we arrived quite a bit late. [11:21] Los     Oh, thou art younger than I thought. [11:25] Los     Thy face was in quite a state last night. [11:31] Hort     What are you doing, Tyrant? Let go of him! [11:38] the Tyrant     Okey dokey. [11:46] Los     My dear Ludens, [11:49] Los     say hello! [11:58] Hort     You think he's here on     orders from the Church? [12:01] Kudo     I bet so. To the Church,     a penniless kid is just a pawn. [12:07] [Hearthful?]     There are many good-hearted     people within the Church, too. [12:13] [Hearthful?]     I can't say I approve of     such over-generalization. [12:17] Los     Ah, if it isn't Lady Hearthful! [12:20] Los     Shouldst thou not be at the school? [12:23] [Hearthful?]     I ended class in the morning today. [12:26] [Hearthful?]     I brought lunch for our patient. [12:29] [Hearthful?]     Only, I heard a scream on the way,      so I came to investigate. [12:35] [Hearthful?]     Please forgive me for     essentially eavesdropping. [12:38] Los     Thou hast a proper sense of     yourself as being protected. [12:43] Los     Still, lately it smells like     trouble is brewing, does it not? [12:47] Los     Dost thou not feel it is     time to flee the village? [12:51] [Hearthful?]     Goodness, no. [12:53] [Hearthful?]     It is to be expected that the extremists     within the Church would target a witch village. [12:58] [Hearthful?]     Everyone who came here was     prepared for that possibility. [13:03] the Tyrant     Whaddya want? [13:04] [Hearthful?]     As I said, I brought you lunch. [13:08] the Tyrant     Oh... well, that was... kind of ya. [13:13] [Hearthful?]     This one is [13:16] [Hearthful?]     for him. [13:18] [Hearthful?]     He is still just a kid. [13:21] [Hearthful?]     Did the extremists not consider     that a child like him would fail? [13:28] Hort     Good point. [13:29] Los     He is chum. [13:32] Los     To the anti-witch faction,     this village is a murky swamp. [13:36] Los     They do not know what fish     there might be, or how many. [13:40] [Hearthful?]     So then, he's...? [13:42] Los     They probably wished to see how this young man     would be killed for attacking with clear hostility. [13:52] Kudo     He'll get no sympathy from me! [13:54] Kudo     He tried to stab not just     me, but Professor Los, too! [13:58] Kudo     He attacked the one he thought     was weakest to break through. [14:02] Kudo     He'd even have no qualms     killing the village children. [14:07] Los     Ah, but, Kudo, no one said     anything about sympathy. [14:11] Kudo     I don't... I didn't... [14:14] Los     Thou dost, right? [14:15] Los     Though dost have sympathy for him, right? [14:19] Los     Very well! [14:20] Los     I am fond of compassion     that overcomes even hatred! [14:23] Los     Here, I shall pat thee for it! [14:25] Hort     I'm jealous! [14:26] Kudo     Stop it! [14:27] Hort     I'll show compassion, too! I will! [14:28] [Hearthful?]     That is bad manners. [14:30] [Hearthful?]     Would you like to sit and eat at a table? [14:32] the Tyrant     I'm an Arbiter, you know. [14:35] [Hearthful?]     Even for Arbiters and witches,     etiquette and manners are important. [14:40] the Tyrant     Oh? Am I gonna etiquette     my enemies to death? [14:44] [Hearthful?]     Other people's opinions of you can     be a way of protecting yourself. [14:48] [Hearthful?]     Manners are a useful and efficient     way of gaining positive regard. [14:54] the Tyrant     I'm only regarded for killing. [14:58] [Hearthful?]     You intend to build relationships with     others in this village through killing? [15:04] the Tyrant     That's my job. Ain't that right, boss? [15:08] Hort     Your job is protecting, not killing! [15:12] the Tyrant     Ain't that the same thing? [15:14] Hort     Not at all! [15:16] [Hearthful?]     Ah, yes. If your job is to protect the village,      then you need to learn about it. [15:22] [Hearthful?]     Might I show you around the village? [15:25] Hort     Huh? U-Um, I think that's     dangerous. He's a killer. [15:30] the Tyrant     I ain't gonna kill anybody for free. [15:33] the Tyrant     But if there's money in it, then— [15:37] [Hearthful?]     I must inform you that     acting fearsome like that [15:40] [Hearthful?]     will gain you nothing here. [15:43] [Hearthful?]     No one in this village will fear you. [15:47] the Tyrant     Oh, is that so? [15:54] [Hearthful?]     Professor Los, no need to escalate. [15:58] [Hearthful?]     I'm sure it was just a little test to     see if I really wouldn't be afraid. [16:04] Los     Do not play games like this again, Tyrant. [16:07] ---     Next time thy head shall fly. [16:10] the Tyrant     My bad. [16:13] [Hearthful?]     Shall we go, then, Mr. Tyrant? [16:18] Mercenary     Hey, he's just a kid. [16:21] Mercenary     So the assailant was just some kid. [16:24] Mercenary     I wanted to get some     information out of him, [16:28] Mercenary     but this changes the plan. [16:30] Kudo     What was the plan? [16:33] Mercenary     Torture. [16:35] Kudo     N-No torturing! [16:38] Mercenary     I'm saying I'm not gonna torture a kid. [16:40] Kudo     No adults, either! [16:42] Kudo     The plan was to send him to Wenias     once his condition is stable! [16:47] Kudo     But torture? [16:49] Kudo     That ain't the rule of law! [16:51] Hort     W-Wow, Kudo! [16:53] Hort     You sound super smart! [16:55] Hort     I agree! [16:57] Hort     No torture! [16:58] Mercenary     You're quite right. [17:00] Mercenary     If torture's out, then this     is a job for the priest. [17:03] Kudo     The priest? [17:05] Hort     True. The Father can use verbal torment— [17:08] Hort     Look out! [17:11] Priest     I'm surprised. That was intended to hit. [17:15] Hort     No violence! You call yourself a clergyman? [17:18] Priest     You never know who could be listening. [17:22] Priest     If you grasped that better, I would     not need to resort to violence. [17:29] Priest     Also, look. [17:31] Priest     He's awake. Has been for a while. [17:50] Priest     Realize your position, [17:52] Priest     heretic who comprehends not a single     ounce of the chaste Church's aims. [17:56] [Kady?]     Damn it! Is everyone in     this village a monster? [18:00] Priest     What is evil? [18:03] Priest     Just what [18:04] Priest     is a monster? [18:06] Priest     If your head is for show and lacks even     the sense an infant would retain, [18:11] Priest     shall I cut it off and replace it     with the head of that monster there? [18:16] Kudo and Mercenary     Does he mean me? [18:17] Hort and Los     Yikes. [18:19] Priest     Can the room be made dark? [18:22] Los     Indeed. [18:36] Hort     Whoa! I-It's so dark! [18:39] Los     'Tis roughly a moonlit night. [18:41] Los     Perhaps a bit too bright     for the priest's eyes. [18:45] Priest     No. This is enough. [18:47] Priest     I will ask you several questions,     but you need not answer them. [18:52] Priest     If you wish to answer, I will not stop you. [18:55] Priest     But if you lie, I will know. [19:02] Priest     Were you the only one sent to this     village with the Remnant of Disaster? [19:09] [Kady?]     Good question. [19:10] Priest     Affirmed. Well, as anticipated. [19:14] [Kady?]     What?! I didn't say— [19:17] Priest     Are further attacks with     Remnants of Disaster planned? [19:23] [Kady?]     How should I know? [19:25] Priest     You showed signs of embarrassment. [19:27] Priest     I see. It appears you really don't know. [19:30] Priest     Furthermore, you are embarrassed     you weren't informed. [19:34] Priest     Is there a plan to rescue you? [19:36] [Kady?]     D— [19:38] Priest     Strong negative. [19:39] Priest     It was made clear to you that you     would not be rescued if captured. [19:44] Hort     What? How does he know? Is it a bluff? [19:48] Los     Facial expressions. [19:49] Los     Movements of the pupils, eyelids, and lips. [19:52] Los     He is reading unconsciously     expressed emotion. [19:55] Hort     He can do that?! [19:57] Priest     I have the general picture. [19:59] Priest     You may let it be light again. [20:04] Priest     To be frank, [20:05] Priest     we gained little information. [20:08] Priest     Nor can we exclude the possibility that the     boy was supplied with false information. [20:14] Los     From the fact that they acquired     a Remnant of Destruction, [20:18] Los     a higher-up at the Church is involved.     Someone fairly high up, at that. [20:25] Priest     Unfortunately. [20:27] Los     So someone is presenting themselves as     a peace faction, but supporting the extremists. [20:33] Mercenary     The internal conflict within the     Church is pretty messy right now, isn't it? [20:37] ---     How alarming. [20:39] Los     Someone so high up must have better     cards to play than a powerless boy. [20:44] Los     In other words, [20:46] Los     further moves ought to be coming. [20:49] Los     But strangely, there has been no movement. [20:53] Los     What should be happening, isn't. [20:55] Los     Which means, [20:56] Los     the move has already been made in secret. [20:59] Los     We must assume so. [21:00] Los     For now, regarding that boy, [21:03] Los     it may be best to delay his     transfer to Wenias for a bit. [21:09] Hort     The adults are deciding     everything themselves. [21:14] Hort     I can fight, too, you know! [21:17] Hort     Yeah, right. [21:19] Hort     A student who can't take     responsibility can't do anything. [21:35] [Hearthful?]     My, how rare for you to come by the school. [21:40] [Hearthful?]     I was just showing Mr. Tyrant around. [21:44] Hort     Oh. [21:45] Hort     What's that they're making? [21:47] [Hearthful?]     He says it's a trap to catch fish. [21:50] [Hearthful?]     He apparently worked at a workshop     that made traps for hunting. [21:54] Hort     Did he say, "traps for hunting people"? [21:58] [Hearthful?]     Yes. First thing. [22:02] [Hearthful?]     Apparently he can't help but try to scare me. [22:05] [Hearthful?]     He's like a little kid. [22:07] Laios     Look, mister! I finished my trap! [22:13] the Tyrant     I'd say this looks pretty good. [22:16] Laios     Ms. Hearthful! I wanna go to the river! [22:19] [Hearthful?]     A fine idea. Why don't we all     go there together tomorrow? [22:23] Laios     Yay! [22:32] [Hearthful?]     I suppose the idea of us going     alone is still a little worrisome. [22:36] [Hearthful?]     Might I ask you to escort us? [22:39] Hort     O-Of course! [22:41] Laios     Are you coming, too, mister? [22:42] the Tyrant     Depends on the boss.      I don't get to decide. [22:46] Hort     Of course you're coming, too! [22:48] Hort     Don't forget, you're my servant! [22:52] the Tyrant     Sure, sure. [22:53] the Tyrant     But are ya sure? You want a killer     like me to be around kids? [22:58] Hort     Hey! Not in front of the children! [23:01] Laios     Mister, are you gonna kill us? [23:04] the Tyrant     Nah, I mean... I don't intend to. [23:07] Laios     Then it's fine for him to be     around us. Right, everyone? [23:11] Kids     I agree! [23:11] Kids     Yeah! [23:14] the Tyrant     What're ya teaching these kids? [23:17] [Hearthful?]     As I told you. [23:18] [Hearthful?]     No resident of this village will fear you. [23:22] [Hearthful?]     If there isn't sufficient reason to fear, [23:24] [Hearthful?]     we won't be scared of anything. [23:42] Kudo     The transfer is postponed? [23:47] [Kady?]     Damn it! [23:49] Kudo     Hey. [23:50] Kudo     Come with me.

[00:07] Kady     My name was supposed to go     down in history for dying here. [00:14] Kudo     If you wanna go down in history,     do it with great deeds. Not evil ones.

[02:39] Kady     The best...? I don't know... [02:43] Kady     They were all great. [02:46] Kudo     This soup smelled awesome. [02:49] Lilly     What needed work? [02:51] Kudo     With the bitterness of this sauce, [02:54] Kudo     the priest'd probably say,     "Is there poison in this?" [02:58] Kady     Do you always have such good food? [03:01] Kudo     On occasion, when the priest is away. [03:04] Lilly     Since he can't give empty compliments,     he's a perfect taste tester! [03:08] Kudo     Don't tell the others. [03:11] Kudo     It's apparently a secret that she     practices cooking for the priest. [03:15] Lilly     That's right. [03:17] Kady     Why did you bring me, then? [03:20] Kudo     It was unbelievably tasty, right? [03:22] Kudo     Even though you ate with a beastfallen. [03:26] Kady     Well, I mean... [03:28] Kady     Yeah... [03:37] Kady     Sh-She's a mouse?! [03:39] Kady     No way! [03:41] Kady     I ate food made by a mouse? [03:43] Kudo     You sure did! [03:47] Lilly     That's not nice! [03:49] Lilly     Um, I'm sorry. [03:51] Lilly     You can puke it up if you're grossed out! [03:56] Kady     That would... be a waste. [03:59] Kudo     Well, thanks for the meal.

[04:47] Kady     What a nice room... [04:55] Kady     I guess I ate too much. [04:58] Kady     It was all a lie. [05:04] Saybil     Verse one, Solm! [05:07] Saybil     Grant me power! [05:09] Saybil     My name is Saybil! [05:13] Saybil     Professor Zero taught me     how to exert control. [05:17] Hort     Wow! How do you do that? [05:19] Hort     I wanna do it, too! [05:21] Hort     I'll give it a try! [05:22] Los     My, you can even change the shape. [05:26] Hort     Hey... This is pretty hard. [05:30] Saybil     Think of it like making certain parts dark. [05:33] Hort     Oh, I see. [05:36] Hort     Oh! I can do it! I'm gonna get it! [05:39] Kudo     This is... really tough! [05:43] Hort     Even though the spell     is simple, this is difficult. [05:45] Saybil     I should have gone to      Professor Zero sooner. [05:49] Los     Too tough for thee, eh, Kudo? [05:53] Saybil     Professor Los. [05:54] Los     What is it? [05:55] Saybil     I'd like to get your help     with an experiment. [05:58] Saybil     It would be dangerous with people,     so I'd like to use the Staff of Ludens. [06:02] Los     Very well! [06:04] Los     I am fond of the passion to improve! [06:08] Saybil     I also need to say something. [06:10] Los     I am in a fine mood today. Go ahead. [06:16] Saybil     I like you. [06:19] Los     Ver— [06:24] Los     A-Art thou trying to make me blush? [06:26] Los     I adore my students as well. [06:29] Saybil     No. I mean, like, I want to marry you. [06:33] Saybil     Like, I want to be your mate. [06:38] Hort     Hold on, Sayb! [06:39] Hort     Love is a negotiation! [06:41] Hort     You can't just push your side! [06:42] Saybil     Did I do it wrong? [06:44] Hort     It might have been a bit... alarming... [06:49] Saybil     I'm sorry, Professor Los.     Forget this happened. [06:52] Los     How could I?! [06:55] (Flashback) Church Official     Stand up, Kady. [06:57] (Flashback) Church Official     Witches are not compassionate like us. [07:01] (Flashback) Church Official     Everything is the fault of witches. [07:04] (Flashback) Church Official     A witch brought the north to ruin. [07:06] (Flashback) Church Official     You all lost your families     because of a witch. [07:09] (Flashback) Church Official     We must protect the south.

[07:55] Child     I'm so excited! [07:55] Hearthful     We're almost at the river, everyone. [07:59] the Tyrant     Hey, face forward when you walk. [08:02] Kady     Traitor... [08:03] Hort     What? [08:04] Kady     I'm amazed you can act     all buddy-buddy with him. [08:08] Kady     You actually trust a traitor? [08:11] Kudo     I don't trust anybody. [08:14] Kudo     Including her. [08:16] Hort     I was raised in the Church, too. [08:19] Hort     I'm sort of a traitor, as you put it. [08:22] Kady     What're you talking about? [08:24] Hort     It's not easy to get people to trust you. [08:27] Hort     I don't trust the Tyrant one bit, either. [08:31] Hort     Earning trust is a process! [08:33] Hort     You gotta make and keep promises! [08:36] Hort     So, Kady, promise us you won't harm     people who lack that power to fight. [08:42] Hort     If you'll stick to that,     we'll promise we won't kill you! [08:52] Hort     Now, let's go! [08:53] Hort     I hope we catch lots of fish! [09:02] Saybil     Good morning, Professor Los. [09:09] Saybil     That's a novel way of getting up. [09:11] Saybil     I brought some bread. [09:13] Saybil     Would you like some? [09:14] Saybil     Oh, I'll make some tea. [09:19] Los     No, no, 'tis strange! [09:21] Los     What's going on? [09:23] Los     Thou sure movest fast. [09:26] Saybil     I wanted to start my experiment ASAP. [09:28] Saybil     It's this. [09:30] Los     What is that? Oil? [09:32] Saybil     A magic potion. [09:34] Los     A magic potion? [09:36] Saybil     I made it based on a book     I borrowed from Professor Zero. [09:42] Saybil     This book. [09:44] Los     The handwriting looks like     the scratches of a strangled chicken. [09:48] Saybil     Oh? You can't read it? [09:50] Los     Honestly, how canst thou read it? [09:53] Los     The witch who wrote this has utterly     no intention of letting others read it. [09:57] Saybil     Sorcerer. [09:59] Saybil     The person who wrote this book. [10:01] Saybil     It was the sorcerer Thirteen. My father. [10:06] Los     Thou knowest about that? [10:08] Saybil     Yes. I found out yesterday. [10:10] Saybil     That's not important, though. [10:12] Los     Not important? [10:14] Saybil     This book describes a way     to infuse magic into a potion. [10:19] Saybil     I thought I could apply it to make     a potion that supplies magical energy. [10:24] Los     Thus thou needest Ludens... [10:27] Los     Very well! [10:33] Saybil     Well? [10:42] Los     He seems happy. [10:45] Los     Ah, I see. [10:47] Los     He has more magic. [10:49] Los     About two mages' worth. [10:52] Saybil     Huh? That much? [10:53] Saybil     That's strange. [10:55] Saybil     I thought I held back quite a bit... [10:58] Saybil     Maybe I need to change the ingredients... [11:01] Los     Huh? Hey! [11:02] Saybil     I'll come again. [11:04] Saybil     Next time, I'll try making     several kinds of potions. [11:07] Los     Thou wilt? Make sure to take breaks! [11:11] ---     I will. [11:12] Saybil     You show concern for all of us.     That's something I like about you. [11:16] Los     W-W-Wai—Wha? [11:19] Los     What madest thou say that? [11:20] Saybil     Hort said I should tell you     my reasons for liking you. [11:25] Los     Ah, hah... [11:27] Los     But then, does logic not dictate     that thou shouldst like Hort, [11:31] Los     who shows tons of concern for others? [11:34] Saybil     True... [11:36] Saybil     Oh, I see. [11:38] Saybil     I also like how you test     people like that, Professor Los. [11:44] Saybil     When I see you grinning like,     "I got ya there," I feel goosebumps. [11:51] Saybil     I like that feeling. [11:55] Los     Fine. I get it! [11:57] Los     Just get going already! [12:00] Saybil     I'll be going, then. [12:02] Saybil     What will you do? [12:03] Los     I shall be monitoring the boy     we captured yesterday. [12:06] Saybil     What? But Hort and the others said     they're inviting him to the river. [12:11] Los     The river? [12:18] (Flashback) The Tyrant's Father     Hey! [12:19] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young)     Oh, Pops. [12:21] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young)     I've been making the trap     you mentioned this morning. [12:25] (Flashback) The Tyrant's Father     Who said to make that?! [12:27] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young)     You did, Pop— [12:29] (Flashback) The Tyrant's Father     Quit foolin' around makin' crap! [12:34] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young)     But he told me to make it. [12:39] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young)     I don't get it. [12:41] (Flashback) Nobleman     I am told you have a talent for traps. [12:44] (Flashback) Nobleman     I have clever beasts disturbing my fields. [12:47] (Flashback) Nobleman     Make me a complex trap. [12:50] (Flashback) Nobleman     Complex enough to keep     a human from getting out. [12:53] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young man)     Why come to me? [12:55] (Flashback) Nobleman     I can tell from your traps that [12:58] (Flashback) Nobleman     you are a heartless sort. [13:03] (Flashback) Nobleman     I release criminals in the forest. [13:05] (Flashback) Nobleman     I tell them they'll be acquitted     if they can escape alive. [13:09] (Flashback) Nobleman     But since I started using     your traps, we have had [13:14] (Flashback) Nobleman     not a single one escape. [13:18] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young man)     A frightened kid makes obvious moves. [13:22] (Flashback) Nobleman     I wish to make it more interesting. [13:24] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young man)     So you want to torment them longer? [13:30] (Flashback) the Tyrant (young man)     It's crystal clear. [13:36] (Flashback) Priest     The word is that you have     a talent for traps. [13:40] (Flashback) Priest     Choose. [13:42] (Flashback) Priest     Die here or live in agony     that makes you pray for death. [14:00] (Flashback) the Tyrant     It's crystal clear. [14:04] Laios     I caught one! [14:05] Laios     Look, I caught a fish, Mr. Tyrant! [14:08] the Tyrant     You didn't use your trap. [14:11] Laios     Because it's faster     to grab it with my hands! [14:13] the Tyrant     These kids have so much freedom. [14:15] Hearthful     They really do. [14:18] the Tyrant     "Hearthful" is a northern name, isn't it? [14:21] Hearthful     Very knowledgeable of you. [14:23] the Tyrant     You came to a witch village even though     a witch made your home unlivable? [14:28] Hearthful     Everyone asks that. [14:32] the Tyrant     And how do ya answer? [14:34] Hearthful     If a hunter killed one of my family     members, I wouldn't hate all hunters. [14:40] the Tyrant     If a hunter killed their beloved child,     anyone would hate the profession itself. [14:47] Hearthful     In the event a hunter killed my child,     I am sure I would become a hunter. [14:52] Hearthful     And then I would think about how to hunt     without accidentally killing children. [14:59] Hearthful     That is my nature. [15:01] Hearthful     It's how I was born and the way I was made. [15:05] Laios     Ms. Hearthful, c'mere! [15:07] Hearthful     I'm coming. [15:14] the Tyrant     The way you were born, eh? [15:16] the Tyrant     I see. Crystal clear. [15:20] Hort     Did you fall for her? For the teacher? [15:24] the Tyrant     Huh? [15:25] the Tyrant     Seeing someone perfectly put together     like that lose it and scream... [15:31] the Tyrant     How do I put this... [15:33] the Tyrant     It gets me worked up. [15:35] Hort     I'm glad. [15:38] Hort     It looks like you'll be able to     get along with everyone. [15:49] Hearthful     Kady, come join us— [15:57] Hearthful     Kudo! Something seems wrong with Kady! [16:01] the Tyrant     Get away from him! [16:12] Kady (Stomach Voice)     I'm hungry. [16:14] Kady (Stomach Voice)     I wanna eat... I wanna eat!

[17:12] Kudo     What the hell happened to him? [17:15] the Tyrant     A trap, I bet. [17:17] Hort     What do you mean, Mr. Know-It-All? [17:20] the Tyrant     That kid didn't bring just one     Remnant of Disaster with him. [17:27] the Tyrant     Hort, you take the teacher     and kids back to the village. [17:30] the Tyrant     I'll kill this thing. [17:33] Hort     Don't be ridiculous!     You don't have a weapon right now! [17:38] Hearthful     Leave the children to me! [17:41] Hearthful     Come, children! [17:42] Children     Yes, ma'am. [17:45] Hort     Impressive... [17:46] Kudo     Hold out your arm, Tyrant. I'll heal you. [17:49] Hort     Wait, Kudo. Conserve your magic. [17:54] Kady     Time to dig in! [17:58] Hort     Tyrant, immobilize Kady! [18:01] Kudo     Don't let go, even if it kills you. [18:03] Kudo     It's all over if Hort's     incantation is interrupted! [18:06] the Tyrant     Damn it! [18:07] the Tyrant     Wherever I go, I'm never     leaving my weapon behind again! [18:17] Hort     Maelim Soh Heghans! [18:19] Hort     Gather, bricks of stone! [18:22] Hort     Spin a net, O grass and vines! [18:27] Hort     Close off heaven, earth, and the four winds!

[18:39] Hort     Grant me power! [18:40] Hort     My name is Hort! [19:02] Hort     He's sealed inside! [19:12] Kady (Stomach Voice)     I want food! [19:14] Kady (Stomach Voice)     I want food! [19:23] the Tyrant     Kill him, or we'll be wiped out! [19:25] Kudo     Just hold out! [19:27] Kudo     Once Kady's dead, I'll heal you! [19:29] Kudo     Hort! [19:31] Hort     But, Kudo... [19:33] (Flashback) Hort     We'll promise we won't kill you! [19:38] Kudo     I know. [19:43] Kudo     It won't just be you. [19:45] Kudo     We'll kill him together! [19:51] Hort     I only have enough magic     for one cast of Flagis. [19:54] Hort     I'll go all out. [20:04] Hort     Bag Do Glaht! [20:06] Hort     Kalpa fire, come forth! Flare and blaze! [20:10] the Tyrant     You think you can take me out too     by slowing the incantation! [20:15] the Tyrant     It's crystal clear. [20:17] Hort     Grant me power! [20:19] Hort     My name is Hort! [20:34] Kudo     Hold on, Tyrant! [20:35] Kudo     Chapter of Protection, final verse! [20:38] Kudo     Quaocul! [20:39] Kudo     Grant me power! [20:41] Kudo     My name is Kudo! [21:06] Hort     Kudo, look! [21:12] Hort     Get up, Tyrant! [21:19] the Tyrant     This ain't good. Run! [21:22] the Tyrant     Run away! [21:24] the Tyrant     I can't. [21:26] the Tyrant     I lost too much blood. [21:28] the Tyrant     I can't run. [21:30] Kudo     Quit complaining and suck it up! [21:32] Hort     If you die, we'll have     healed you for nothing! [21:36] Kudo     Now stand up, old man! [21:40] the Tyrant     You idiots. [21:49] Kudo     Hey! What is it? [21:56] the Tyrant     Don't move! Keep your heads down! [22:01] the Tyrant     Here it comes! [22:03] Los     My dear Ludens, [22:05] the Tyrant     snack time!

[00:02] Hort     If there were a single mastermind     behind everything [00:05] Hort     and killing them would solve everything, [00:08] Hort     I'd go kill 'em right now. [00:14] Hort     We were powerless. [00:16] Hort     We had two mages and even an Arbiter, [00:21] Hort     and yet we still couldn't save him. [00:23] Saybil     I should have accompanied you... [00:26] Kudo     We won't get to work together forever. [00:30] Kudo     If Hort and I take your magic provision     for granted, we'll be useless. SIGN    Here lies Kady [00:37] Kudo     Ain't that right, Hort? [00:43] Hort     You shouldn't feel bad about that, Sayb. [00:55] Kudo     A dragon. [00:57] Kudo     It's the Dragon Conqueror King! [01:09] Kudo     Dragon Conqueror King. [01:11] Dragon Conqueror King     Ah, you three. [01:13] Dragon Conqueror King     You have orders to return to Wenias. [01:16] Dragon Conqueror King     Before long, this village [01:17] Dragon Conqueror King     will be a battlefield. [02:51] Saybil     What do you mean by "orders to return?" SIGN    Episode 11 Determination to Kill [02:54] Kudo     What about what we want? [02:55] Hort     And what's this about a battlefield? [02:58] Zero     It is as you were told. [03:00] Zero     We cannot let students risk     their lives on the battlefield. [03:03] Kudo     Don't choose now to start     acting like a normal teacher! [03:07] Kudo     If there's gonna be a battle here,     then you need all the help you can get! [03:10] Hort     That's right! [03:12] Zero     You have been given instructions. [03:13] Zero     Follow them, or you'll be expelled. [03:16] Saybil     Then I'll drop out. [03:18] Hort     Sayb?! [03:19] Saybil     But if I prove useful in battle, [03:22] Saybil     then please readmit me     in recognition of my achievements. [03:25] Zero     Don't be ridiculous. [03:27] Zero     That's quite a farce. [03:29] Saybil     This war itself is a farce to begin with. [03:33] Saybil     Professor Los said that when mages     are punched, they can't punch back. [03:39] Saybil     In that case, this war is a     thoroughly defensive battle. [03:43] Zero     And? [03:45] Saybil     Professor Los said witches     lay traps when they fight. [03:48] Saybil     In which case, we just need     to lay traps that won't kill people. [03:52] Saybil     If we lay 100 traps that each     incapacitate 10 people, [03:55] Saybil     we can bring a force of 1,000 to zero. [03:57] Zero     How will you make those traps? [04:00] Zero     To disable someone is far more     difficult than to kill them. [04:03] Saybil     With magic potions. [04:06] Zero     You made one? [04:07] Zero     A potion that supplies magic? [04:10] Saybil     It's still unfinished, [04:12] Saybil     but I can perfect it with Hort and Kudo. [04:16] Saybil     And so, if we consult the Tyrant, [04:19] Saybil     we can reduce the casualties due to magic. [04:24] Zero     If you managed that, I'd have to     graduate you, not expel you. [04:32] Los     A graduation exam is a fine idea! [04:34] Los     I am ever fond of innovative endeavors! [04:39] Zero     Dawn Witch, this is an Academy matter. [04:42] Los     If thou sendest the students back,      I too shall leave! [04:46] Los     To me, this village's disappearance would     hurt no more than the bite of a stray dog. [04:51] Saybil     That sounds pretty painful. [04:54] Los     Thou art right! [04:55] Los     I have taken a liking to this village! [04:58] Los     Let me protect it! Let me fight! [05:01] Los     Please! Please! [05:03] Zero     All right, Dawn Witch. Don't throw a fit. [05:06] Zero     I'll see what the     Mooncaller Witch has to say. [05:11] Hort     Hooray! [05:12] Los     Ah, my heart is dancing! [05:15] Los     I shall thrust those bloodthirsty     fighters into a farce [05:19] Los     and, in front of everyone, make them     a century-long subject of mockery! [05:32] Albus     Great. That sounds fantastic! [05:36] Albus     Come. We have a grand performance to put on. [05:39] Holdem     This doesn't really change anything. [05:42] Holdem     You were planning from the beginning     to conduct the fight so no one died. [05:46] Holdem     So? What flavor should it have? [05:49] Albus     Think about it from     the audience's perspective. [05:52] Albus     Instead of just silently ignoring them, [05:54] Albus     it's more entertaining to tease     the advance army and drive them away. [05:58] Holdem     Then it should really pop. [06:01] Albus     I'll leave the casting to you. [06:03] Albus     I need to arrange an audience for the show. [06:10] Priest     It's an odd feeling, isn't it? [06:14] Priest     To think former Arbiters would     engage Church believers in battle. [06:19] the Tyrant     It's not like I was ever a believer. [06:23] the Tyrant     I was just on death row. [06:26] Priest     I hear you protected the children. [06:30] Priest     Loux Krystas gave me a report. [06:34] Priest     She said you're more     compassionate than she thought. [06:39] the Tyrant     I just protected my owner, like a tool. [06:42] Priest     I see. You claim not to     follow your own will. [06:47] Priest     And if the previous owner     wishes to use the tool? [06:52] the Tyrant     The current owner will probably break it. [06:56] Priest     I am concerned [06:58] Priest     that the tool might suddenly break     and injure the owner. [07:03] the Tyrant     Well, the owner decides how much     faith to place in their tools. [07:09] Priest     And how does the owner do that? [07:11] the Tyrant     The only way is to try the tool out, right? [07:13] Priest     In a safe environment? [07:16] the Tyrant     That's what I would do. [07:18] Priest     Where are you going? [07:19] the Tyrant     The teacher called for me. [07:21] Priest     I see. It appears you've     grown quite close with her. [07:25] the Tyrant     Giving a compliment wouldn't kill you. [07:28] Priest     Indeed, it is a joyous thing. [07:32] Priest     May the divine protect you. [07:38] Hort     Amazing! [07:39] Hort     This really does replenish magic! [07:41] Hort     This is amazing, Sayb! [07:43] Hort     So this is what you were making. [07:46] Hort     You weren't just staying away from us. [07:49] Saybil     What? [07:50] Hort     Uh, how did you make it? [07:53] Saybil     Well, in Professor Zero's library,     there was a book my father wrote. [07:58] Saybil     I used that. [07:59] Kudo and Hort     What?! [08:00] Kudo     Y-Y-Yer pops was a sorcerer?! [08:04] Saybil     I'll tell you two this     because I want you to know. [08:07] Saybil     My father [08:09] Saybil     is Thirteen. [08:12] Hort     Thirteen? He's... the bad guy     who caused the war, right? [08:17] Saybil     Yeah. [08:20] Kudo     What the hell? It's like you're     a chosen one or something! [08:24] Kudo     Of course you'd get special treatment! [08:26] Kudo     You all-talent, no-hard-work jerk! [08:30] Saybil     Hey! [08:31] Saybil     I'm working hard now, too. [08:33] Saybil     Fairly hard. [08:35] Hort     No... [08:36] Hort     Maybe more like finally working hard? [08:40] Saybil     Yeah, I'm finally working hard. [08:45] Children     Mr. Tyrant, thank you for saving us! [08:52] Laios     Okay, eat up! Enjoy them! [08:55] Laios     You don't look happy. [08:57] Hearthful     Goodness. Maybe it was a little     early for something like this. [09:00] Hearthful     It seems as though Mr. Tyrant     is so happy that he's stunned. [09:04] Hearthful     Go ahead, children.     You can eat the treats now. [09:08] Children     Yes, Ms. Hearthful! [09:10] Children     It looks so good! [09:12] Hearthful     We all discussed how to thank you. [09:16] the Tyrant     Oh, you did... [09:19] Hearthful     I told them that Kady was receiving     treatment in a bigger town. [09:24] the Tyrant     Oh, you did... [09:26] Hearthful     Are you going to try     the treats the kids made? [09:30] the Tyrant     I don't— [09:41] Hearthful     Your mind seems elsewhere. [09:44] Hearthful     Would you like to talk to me about it? [09:46] the Tyrant     You can't help. [09:48] Hearthful     Don't say that. Try me. [09:50] the Tyrant     You'll regret it. [09:52] Hearthful     I prefer to take action and regret it,     rather than do nothing and regret it. [09:59] the Tyrant     What will make you and     the kids suffer, cry, and scream? [10:05] the Tyrant     It's constantly on my mind. [10:08] the Tyrant     Will you tell me, Teach? [10:12] Hearthful     Are you... [10:14] Hearthful     saying you like me? [10:18] the Tyrant     Wha— [10:19] the Tyrant     What?! [10:20] Hearthful     It's okay. Don't be afraid. [10:23] Hearthful     It's the same for everyone in the village. [10:25] Hearthful     When they gain something precious,     they imagine the moment it's destroyed, [10:31] Hearthful     so they can find a way to protect it. [10:34] the Tyrant     To protect it? [10:36] Hearthful     Thank you. [10:37] Hearthful     You're trying to protect us, aren't you. [10:56] Hort     You... [10:59] Hort     ...are just a tool, with no     will of your own, right? [11:04] Hort     You know, I'm not a big fan of Ms. Hearthful. [11:09] the Tyrant     I don't know what the Mask said to you, [11:12] the Tyrant     but I'll cut to the chase. [11:20] the Tyrant     I could do it. [11:23] Hort     What, so you're saying you could     even kill the person you fell for [11:27] Hort     if you were ordered to? [11:29] the Tyrant     That's how I was trained. [11:31] Hort     Your tortured face suggests otherwise. [11:33] the Tyrant     Test me, then, if you have doubts. [11:37] Hort     I just figured I'd torment you a little. [11:43] Hort     Sayb is relying on your traps, [11:47] Hort     to use in combination with his potions. [11:49] Hort     But you see, [11:51] Hort     that means your traps are     a cornerstone of the plan, doesn't it? [11:55] Hort     Frankly, I really don't like that, [11:57] Hort     but I couldn't oppose it. [12:01] Hort     Even human scum like you can protect people     when their lives are suddenly in danger. [12:07] Hort     You see, that really mixed things up for me. [12:11] Hort     If you have feelings like a person, [12:14] Hort     then more and more people     will become important to you. [12:17] Hort     If so, you'll suffer your whole life     under the weight of everything you took. [12:24] Hort     That'll be so very sad for you! [12:29] Hort     If living will make you suffer,     then keeping you alive is worth it. [12:33] Hort     And so, I won't kill you. [12:35] Hort     I'll even watch your back. [12:39] Hort     Bye. [13:00] Los     So? Didst thou give her     the idea for all that? [13:04] Priest     I was certain that you had     given her the idea. [13:07] Los     Do proper maintenance,     entertain good doubts, then trust. [13:13] Los     No wonder Sayb and Kudo     can be so carefree right now. [13:16] Priest     Indeed. They are very observant. [13:19] Los     Just like thee, eh? [13:21] Priest     They'd be upset if you told them that. [13:25] Los     Oh? I would take it as a compliment. [13:32] Los     I guess he really is     the right man for the job. [13:35] Mercenary     It makes you want to call him "boss." [13:37] Villager     Hey, boss, I have a question     about this part of the blueprint. [13:40] the Tyrant     Do that to the west. [13:43] Los     They're already calling him that. [13:45] Hort     So, [13:46] Hort     why don't we target the Flagis spell     at only their equipment? [13:50] Kudo     It's threatening enough. [13:51] Kudo     The most effective thing is to heavily     injure them and then heal them. [13:55] Saybil     But won't that turn into     a massacre if it goes wrong? [13:58] Hort     Hmm. How about... [14:01] Zero     Hold on, students. [14:03] Zero     If we add another method     of combined magic... [14:07] Mercenary     They're really into this. [14:09] Los     What? Art thou not? [14:11] Mercenary     We can only hope our opponents are weak. [14:15] Mercenary     If the odds turn against us,     we won't have the luxury of not killing. [14:19] Priest     They are exceedingly weak. [14:22] Priest     Farmers, poor people, the down     and out. About 10,000 in total. [14:26] Los     Ten thousand?! [14:27] Los     'Tis quite the number. [14:29] Mercenary     Killing people like that     would make us the bad guys. [14:33] Priest     That is no doubt their aim. [14:35] Lilly     There you are! [14:37] Lilly     There's food prep to do! [14:40] Mercenary     Right, of course. I'm coming. [14:43] Priest     Lilly, tonight the Dragon Conqueror King     is going to take the villagers [14:47] Priest     and fly them to Loutra Cathedral. [14:49] Priest     You leave the village with them. [14:53] Lilly     Uh-Uh! [14:54] Priest     Excuse me? [14:54] Lilly     I'm really strong. [14:57] Lilly     I'm gonna fight with you and protect you! [15:00] Lilly     Aren't I? [15:02] Mercenary     You certainly are.     You're stronger than me, after all. [15:05] Los     What's this? [15:07] Los     This cute little mouse girl is that strong? [15:12] Los     Thou art like me! [15:16] Los     Even softer than I imagined! [15:18] Los     Priest, you scoundrel. [15:20] Los     Thou art fully appreciating such     a wonderful creature every day? [15:24] Los     How darest thou? [15:25] Priest     I am not. [15:26] Priest     You're making her uncomfortable. [15:28] Priest     I'm separating you. [15:30] Mercenary     Oh, you aren't? I always assumed you— [15:36] Lilly     You big dummy! [15:38] Lilly     I hate you! [15:40] Mercenary     Wait! [15:42] Priest     Lilly, come back! [15:43] Los     'Tis futile. [15:44] Los     This farce will go down in history. [15:47] Los     'Twould be sad to leave someone     who wishes to participate out. [15:51] Priest     She has no such wish. [15:55] Los     What does she have, then? [15:57] Priest     Wouldn't it be love for me? [16:00] Priest     What is wrong? [16:02] Los     I was stunned by that extreme confidence! [16:04] Los     But on to a more important matter. [16:08] Los     This is the Remnant of Disaster     that ate through Kady's stomach. [16:12] Los     This is just a model. [16:14] Los     If I had not exterminated it, [16:17] Los     it would have spread out infinitely     from the village and devoured the populace. [16:22] Los     Which raises a question. [16:25] Priest     A question? [16:27] Los     Did the Church extremists intend to take     themselves out along with the witches? [16:32] Priest     No one is foolish enough to spread a plague     without first preparing a cure. [16:38] Los     And supposing that the upper     echelons of the Church, [16:41] Los     perhaps not even the bishops,     know how to deal with this? [16:45] Priest     Then whoever knows how to stop it     is the one who spread it. [16:52] Los     The dragon is flying     to Loutra Cathedral tonight, yes? [16:55] Los     Might there be a seat reserved for me? [16:59] Eudorite     Don't dispatch the troops?! [17:01] Eudorite     Are you telling the Church & Mage Knights     to ignore this oppression of witches? [17:06] Holdem     Calm down. [17:08] Holdem     They won't be fighting,     but we will send troops. [17:11] Eudorite     What do you mean? [17:13] Holdem     We'll be taking care of those     who flee the witch village. [17:20] Holdem     We'll treat their injuries, feed them,     and let them listen to the band. [17:26] Holdem     They're idiots whipped up by simplistic     speeches claiming "witches are all bad." [17:32] Holdem     If we treat them well,     they'll be on our side. [17:35] Eudorite     But then... [17:37] Eudorite     This will wind up requiring even more     soldiers than if we annihilated them. [17:41] Holdem     Yes. Which is why I ask you, Knight Captain. [17:46] Holdem     How many can you get? [17:48] Cal     Ria, a request from the Church & Mage     Knights to dispatch the Magic Medic Unit. [17:54] Faeria     Church extremists are marching     against Zero and Mercenary's village [17:58] Faeria     with a force 10,000 strong. [18:00] Faeria     How awful. [18:02] Faeria     Those 10,000 people are going to die. [18:05] Cal     Yeah, they don't do well with holding back. [18:08] Faeria     Will things be okay if I leave a single     medic here as a proxy in my absence? [18:12] Cal     We have so many more magic medics now, [18:15] Cal     you could even abdicate your     position as Saint if you'd like. [18:20] Faeria     Hey! Don't rib me like that! [18:23] Faeria     From Faeria, the Ruler     of the Holy City Acdios. [18:26] Faeria     An emergency message to Torres,     Head of State of the Creon Republic. [18:33] Torres     Fantastic! [18:34] Torres     A fantastic venture! [18:36] Torres     I have always thought     that war ought to be conducted [18:39] Torres     through a game played on a board. [18:41] Torres     But to conduct that game      on the battlefield...! [18:45] Albus     Ow. Not so hard, Torres. [18:48] Torres     Now, about that Remnant of Disaster     from your report the other day. [18:54] Torres     We have determined where it came from. [18:56] Albus     Really? [18:57] Torres     Indeed! [19:00] Torres     It started with a noble     who loved stories of adventure. [19:03] Torres     He hired troops, marched to the north,     and then lost half his troops in a day. [19:10] Torres     In the bodies they managed to bring back,     Remnant of Disaster seeds were found. [19:16] Albus     So, the noble went crying to the Church, [19:18] Albus     which took them and secretly     passed them to the extremists. [19:21] Albus     Which means... [19:23] Albus     a great number of Remnants     of Disaster could still appear. [19:28] Torres     Take this. [19:31] Torres     The noble brought back roughly     500 bodies from the north. [19:36] Torres     Supposing they all contained     Remnants of Disaster, [19:42] Torres     when and where would they use them? [19:46] Albus     We may have been underestimating them. [19:48] Cal     Albus! I didn't know you were here. [19:52] Cal     Torres, I brought an emergency     message from Ria. [19:55] Cal     Here it is. [19:56] Albus     Cal! Perfect timing! [19:58] Albus     Could you fly north right now     and call back the Mage Commander? [20:02] Cal     The north?! [20:04] Cal     Ask the Dragon Conqueror King!     I still wanna live! [20:07] Albus     Don't worry! You'll be fine. [20:09] Albus     The Commander will make sure to protect you. [20:13] Albus     Go as fast as possible! Right now! [20:15] Torres     How merciless... [20:17] Albus     Well, Torres, you gather the audience. [20:21] Albus     I need to return to     the academy and inform Zero. [20:26] Laios     Sayb. [20:30] Saybil     Uls. Laios. [20:32] Laios     I'm leaving the village tomorrow,     even though I actually wanna stay and fight. [20:37] Laios     But since I'm still a kid... [20:40] Saybil     Of course. [20:42] Laios     But I'll grow up and come     back as fast as I can! [20:47] Saybil     I'll be waiting, for when     you come back as an adult. [20:51] Laios     Make sure you hold out until I come back. [20:56] Mercenary     The outcome of war is largely     determined by preparation. [21:00] Mercenary     How many troops you've mustered.     How strong a fortress you've built. [21:05] Mercenary     The other side has made     preparations to kill us. [21:07] Hort     Ready! [21:09] Mercenary     But we've been preparing to not kill them. [21:14] Mercenary     If we fail, we'll end up killing people. [21:20] Saybil     Professor Zero, if I may. [21:27] Zero     Young man, what are you doing? [21:30] Saybil     This is the most rational move. [21:32] Saybil     You have an obligation [21:33] Saybil     to do everything in your power to protect     our futures and the future of mages. [21:38] Saybil     As such, even if my     individual future is ruined... [21:42] Hort     Sayb! [21:50] Zero     How much magical energy to give me     is your decision, young man. [21:56] Zero     I shall accept it. [21:59] Saybil     I'm going full throttle. [22:14] Zero     Ludicrous! Just how far does it go? [22:25] Saybil     P-Professor Zero? [22:27] Zero     Do you... feel okay? [22:30] Saybil     I feel a little lighter. [22:33] Saybil     So this is what it feels like     to have less magic. [22:37] Zero     I was underestimating you... [22:41] Zero     You will one day make a name     for yourself as a sorcerer. [22:45] Zero     Just as I am known as the Mud-Black Witch, [22:47] Zero     and Albus is known as the Mooncaller... [22:50] Zero     The Abyss Sorcerer. [22:52] Zero     When someone eventually     inquires for your name, [22:57] Zero     that is what I shall call you. [23:00] Saybil     Um... I... [23:03] Kudo     Loosen up! Stand tall and proud! [23:06] Hort     You don't need to be anxious! [23:08] Hort     It's for after you've accomplished     something so great people ask who you are! [23:12] Kudo     That's right. [23:13] Zero     And if you mess up in this war, [23:15] Zero     then all three of you     will be expelled together. [23:17] Saybil; Kudo; and Hort     What?!

[02:17] Zero     In part because of the students' traps,     the 10,000 foot soldiers have been routed. [02:24] Hort     All right! [02:26] Zero     One company, however, has skillfully     avoided the traps and continues its advance, [02:32] Zero     nevertheless. [02:34] Mercenary     The beastfallen mercenary group, eh? [02:37] Zero     What's more, in all likelihood,     a demon-possessed is among them. [02:41] Saybil     Are demon-possessed strong? [02:44] Zero     They are beastfallen that can use certain     magic infinitely and without incantation. [02:51] Priest     Good grief. [02:52] Priest     That is generally not a foe one     should fight in small numbers. [02:57] Mercenary     If you're scared, ya coulda     evacuated with the villagers. [03:01] Priest     I reflexively stayed out     of concern for my frien— [03:09] Priest     Lilly! [03:10] Priest     You fool! [03:12] Hort     Professor Zero! [03:14] Zero     The start of the battle has been signaled. [03:17] Zero     Steel your resolve! [03:21] Beastfallen D     Boss! I caught her alive. SIGN    Episode 12 The Beginning of the Adventure [03:24] Beastfallen D     Now what? [03:25] Boss (Demon-possessed)     We take her to the village     and eat her in front of them.

[03:37] Beastfallen D     I can't wait— [03:41] Beastfallen Mercs     What was that? [03:42] Beastfallen Mercs     Where'd it come from? [03:43] Beastfallen Mercs     How? [03:51] Boss (Demon-possessed)     Killing you or keeping you alive... [03:53] Boss (Demon-possessed)     Which will make them fight harder? [03:57] Lilly     K-Killing me! [04:00] Boss (Demon-possessed)     Okay. In that case... [04:13] Lilly     Father! [04:14] Priest     Never say that again! [04:16] Priest     Never say you should be killed! [04:19] Boss (Demon-possessed)     It's not regenerating. [04:21] Priest     My weapon carries a witch curse     and Church consecration. [04:25] Priest     It should prove effective     against a demon-possessed. [04:28] Boss (Demon-possessed)     Hmm... That hurts. [04:45] Lilly     Father, his arm is back! [04:48] Priest     I can tell that much even without seeing it. [04:50] Priest     Stay quiet, or you'll die. [04:59] Mercenary     Oops. [05:02] Mercenary     My bad. I got some on you. [05:03] Mercenary     So this guy's the demon-possessed? [05:10] Boss (Demon-possessed)     This is getting slightly interesting. [05:21] Lilly     They're all coming back to life!

[05:40] Mercenary     Uh-oh, now he's mad. [05:44] Mercenary     I'll take the demon-possessed.     I'll let you have the rest. [05:47] Mercenary     Let's get started. [06:07] Beastfallen A     What?! [06:15] the Tyrant     You fell right into it! [06:17] the Tyrant     It was basically a kid's trap. [06:20] Beastfallen A     Tyrant, you bastard! You betrayed us?! [06:26] Beastfallen A     They're using magic! [06:31] Beastfallen A     Kill those three! [06:40] Beastfallen A     Spread out! [06:42] Beastfallen A     There are only four of 'em! We can     overwhelm them with our numbers! [06:47] Zero     Are you certain about that? [06:49] Zero     At a rough glance, [06:51] Zero     I'd say the horned girl made 30,     the lizard made 10, [06:54] Zero     and the young man made five. [06:57] Zero     What matters most is not how many     you create, but how many hit. [07:05] Beastfallen A     Wh-What was that?! [07:07] Beastfallen A     Run! [07:07] Zero     Aim carefully, students. [07:11] Hort     Zahard Rohud! [07:12] Hort     Run my quarry through! [07:14] Hort     Chapter of Hunting, verse two! [07:17] Hort     Steim! [07:18] Hort; Kudo; and Saybil     Grant me power! [07:29] Hort     We're not hitting as many     as I thought we would. [07:31] Kudo     Because they took shelter,     using trees and boulders as shields. [07:36] Zero     Your opponents are experienced warriors.     What is your next move? [07:40] Beastfallen G     Damn it! Those brats! [07:42] Beastfallen B     Kill 'em! [07:46] the Tyrant     Take this! [07:56] the Tyrant     Hey! One's headed your way!

[12:08] Zero     It would take a bit of work to vanquish you. [12:19] Torres     My, how delightful! [12:21] Torres     If it's a show like this, I would     welcome one every year! [12:27] Albus     This is pretty expensive,     so I'd rather it not be every year. [12:31] Torres     You have the VIPs of the Seven Great     Cathedrals here to observe these exercises? [12:35] Albus     Yep. All of them. [12:37] Torres     And the culprit? [12:38] Albus     We've identified him. [12:39] Albus     All that's left is to create     irrefutable circumstantial evidence [12:43] Albus     in front of the largest audience possible. [12:45] Torres     If it wouldn't be a problem,     might I hazard a guess? [12:48] Holdem     Hey! You're too close to her! [12:53] Albus     Bingo. You've— [12:56] Albus     Something's coming. [13:07] Albus     Remnants of Disaster! [13:09] Albus     Those vermin eat people! [13:11] Torres     Protect the Bishops! [13:13] Albus     Mage Commander Amnir! [13:16] Amnir     Mages! [13:17] Amnir     Prepare to cast Firam! [13:19] Amnir     Reduce the foes before us to ash! [13:21] Raul     Princess, [13:23] Raul     I believe you have already     noticed, but isn't that...

[14:18] [Bishop Ideamor]     Gather near me, all of you! [14:24] [Bishop Ideamor]     If you come near me, you'll be safe. Come! [14:28] Albus     Bishop Ideamor,     Your Excellency, what is this? [14:31] [Bishop Ideamor]     Chief Mage Albus... [14:34] [Bishop Ideamor]     It appears the witch     of the village you trusted [14:36] [Bishop Ideamor]     is willing to produce great casualties     to protect her village. [14:42] [Bishop Ideamor]     I harbored suspicions from the beginning. [14:45] [Bishop Ideamor]     Therefore I prepared a countermeasure. [14:48] Albus     A countermeasure? [14:49] Torres     You know of a way to repel     these foul creatures? [14:53] Torres     Why did you not speak up earlier? [14:56] [Bishop Ideamor]     I wanted to believe... [14:59] [Bishop Ideamor]     In the goodness of the village witch, [15:01] [Bishop Ideamor]     as well as the ability     of Wenias's Chief Mage. [15:08] [Bishop Ideamor]     Unfortunately, this is the reality. [15:10] [Bishop Ideamor]     Now do come to my side, Mr. Torres. [15:13] [Bishop Ideamor]     The ward's effects do not extend     beyond my reach, at best. [15:18] Albus     You know, [15:20] Albus     you can't create a ward without     knowing the name of the foe's demon. [15:25] Albus     Bishop Ideamor, Your Excellency, [15:27] Albus     how do you possess knowledge of which demon [15:30] Albus     is the source of that Remnant of Disaster? [15:34] Albus     Please do explain. [15:37] Albus     Because a noble's private     soldiers discovered it [15:40] Albus     and "certain Church extremists"     had secreted it away, [15:44] Albus     none of the other bishops     had seen it before. [15:47] Albus     So how did Your Excellency prepare a ward [15:50] Albus     against that Remnant     of Disaster ahead of time? [15:55] Bishop of Loutra Cathedral     Bishop Ideamor... [15:58] [Bishop Ideamor]     No... I... [16:04] [Bishop Ideamor]     They're here! The R-Remnant of Disaster! [16:12] [Bishop Ideamor]     How can this be? [16:14] [Bishop Ideamor]     I am in possession of a ward! [16:16] [Bishop Ideamor]     Why isn't it working? My ward! [16:19] [Bishop Ideamor]     My ward! [16:33] Los     Boo! [16:35] Los     Did I startle thee? [16:42] Torres     A powerful performance! [16:44] Torres     I nearly believed a swarm of Remnants     of Disaster had actually rushed in! [16:53] Los     Once the curtain rises,     even if the start time is far off, [16:57] Los     performers will naturally appear. [16:59] Los     Thy performance was quite fine, [17:02] Los     comical as it was. [17:04] [Bishop Ideamor]     Wh-What are you talking about? [17:07] Los     I am fond of humans' flexibility     to correct the error of their ways. [17:11] Los     I shan't kill thee. [17:13] Los     Shouldst thou demonstrate obedience, [17:15] Los     thou mayest keep thy     position as bishop as well. [17:19] Los     As I thought, you rigged your peasant     soldiers with Remnants of Disaster, too... [17:25] Los     knowing that if those     who fled turned into monsters, [17:28] Los     thou couldst blame it on the witches. [17:32] Los     Thy influence shall prove useful     in stopping the south's witch hunts. [17:37] Los     However... [17:40] [Bishop Ideamor]     Th-That's... [17:43] Los     My dear Ludens left this thing     that was in Kady's stomach uneaten. [17:48] [Bishop Ideamor]     Kady? [17:51] Los     Eat it. [17:52] [Bishop Ideamor]     What?! [17:53] Los     Go on. [17:54] [Bishop Ideamor]     I-I can't! [17:55] Los     Why not? [17:56] Los     Didst thou not feed this     to people seeking salvation? [18:01] Los     Telling them it was a "divine blessing"? [18:05] Los     Eat it. That is necessary to forgiving thee. [18:09] Priest     P-P-Please, sp-spare— [18:12] Los     Here! [18:14] Los     Swallow it. [18:15] Los     One nice gulp. [18:21] Los     Very well! Forgiven! [18:30] Woman 1     They gathered 10,000 people     and couldn't subdue one village? [18:35] Woman 1     Pathetic! [18:36] Man 1     The witches didn't inflict a single casualty. [18:39] Man 1     How compassionate of them! [18:41] Woman 2     I heard those scoundrels brought     a Remnant of Disaster down from the north. [18:47] Saybil     The large-scale military action     the anti-witch faction took [18:52] Saybil     ended as an amusing farce to be     passed down through generations. [19:00] Albus     Well, everything worked out! [19:02] Albus     What's the saying:     "After rain comes fair weather"? [19:05] Albus     All three of you truly performed admirably! [19:10] Albus     Now, as for the reason     I summoned you three here... [19:15] Albus     Ta-dah! Your diplomas! [19:18] Albus     Whoo! [19:22] Albus     Congratulations! [19:26] Albus     Huh? [19:26] Albus     Why don't you look happy? [19:28] Saybil     We thought we might be getting tested again. [19:31] Hort     And that we'd fail if we were     too happy about it. [19:34] Kudo     Yup. [19:35] Albus     Oh, Holdem! [19:38] Albus     The students have lost     their capacity to trust! [19:42] Holdem     You're the reason they lost it, my lady. [19:45] Hort     Hey, Headmaster. [19:47] Hort     Now that we've graduated,     you'll help find us a job, right? [19:52] Albus     Oh? You're interested? [19:54] Hort     I am! [19:56] Kudo     I wanna enlist with     the Church & Mage Knights. [19:59] Saybil     I think I'd like to research     magic a little more. [20:03] Albus     What if I told you I had     the perfect jobs for you? [20:10] Saybil     And so the three of us returned     to field program village to gather our things. [20:19] Zero     Go ahead. Take it. [20:21] Zero     The book is yours. [20:24] Saybil     But... to you, this is a memento     of your brother, isn't it? [20:29] Zero     It's also a memento of your father. [20:32] Zero     Besides, I never managed to decipher it. [20:36] Saybil     Um, at the end it says, "To my brethren." [20:41] Saybil     That means you, right, Professor Zero? [20:45] Zero     My brother was always a little bothersome. [20:48] Saybil     Not that. The numbers. [20:50] Saybil     Look at the numbers for the allotments     for the potions in the book. [20:54] Saybil     Turn "13" to "0." [20:56] Saybil     If you do... [20:59] Saybil     The allotments on every page change, see? [21:03] Zero     Ridiculous! It was that simple? [21:06] Saybil     It's simple, but it's funny. [21:09] Saybil     It's a code that's impossible to break     if you don't know Thirteen wrote the book. [21:15] Saybil     I'm glad you're the one who had     this book, Professor Zero. [21:25] Zero     Goodbye for now, my dear nephew. [21:31] Saybil     Aunt Zero... should I call you that? [21:39] Zero     Take care, you three. [21:45] Hort     You're really gonna leave     the Tyrant in this village? [21:49] Hort     Isn't that dangerous? [21:50] the Tyrant     It's not dangerous! Just trust me already! [21:55] Hort     Never gonna happen. [21:56] Lilly     Here. Eat this on the road. [21:59] Kudo     Lilly, I'll miss you! [22:04] Priest     What are you, Kudo's mom? [22:07] Priest     I'm not one for long goodbyes. [22:10] Priest     Be on your way. [22:13] Saybil     Laios. [22:15] Laios     You said you'd go on a journey with me! [22:18] Saybil     I'll come back to get you, [22:20] Saybil     if you haven't forgotten me     once you've grown up. [22:25] Laios     I'm already halfway to being     a grown-up, you know! [22:29] Saybil     You're right. [22:32] Hort     The time went by so fast. [22:34] Kudo     Yeah, even though so much happened. [22:38] Kudo     Still, do you think our     next job will go okay? [22:43] (Flashback) Saybil     The Forbidden Library? [22:45] (Flashback) Albus     Yes. [22:46] (Flashback) Albus     You'll gather and bring back information     about Remnants of Disaster. [22:51] (Flashback) Albus     To be honest, the mission     is deadly dangerous. [22:57] Saybil     I'm incredibly happy I get to be     with the two of you after graduation. [23:01] Saybil     I love you both. [23:04] Kudo     How can you say something     so embarrassing, dude? [23:08] Hort     Why are you making me like you even more, [23:11] Hort     when you're not gonna have feelings for me? [23:13] Hort     Just why? [23:15] Kudo     That's right! That's cruel, dude! [23:17] Saybil     That wasn't my inten— [23:19] Saybil     Oh, sorry, my motion sickness is here. [23:21] Kudo and Hort     Already?! [23:23] Kudo     O-Open the window! [23:24] Hort     Barf outside, Sayb! Outside! [23:25] Dragon Conqueror King     Hey! Don't be so rowdy in the carriage! [23:28] Dragon Conqueror King     It makes flying difficult! [23:34] Saybil     I'd love to see Professor Los.
