The Dawn of the Witch
I can’t remember. Who am I? What am I? Saybil is a student at a magic academy who has no memories of anything from before he joined the school. Not understanding why he's there, the time he spends at the academy feels hollow and empty. And since he doesn't know how to work hard, his grades are always the lowest in his year. Then, one day, the school headmaster, Albus, orders Saybil to participate in a dangerous special training. "I want you to spread the use of magic in an area where they hold witch hunts."

[00:20] Zero

[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! This is no time for jokes!
[23:56] Los
    I really hate that.

[00:10] Nobleman
    Time to move out already.
[00:12] Soldier
    Yes, sir!
[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...
[07:50] Kudo
    No.
[07:50] (Flashback) Kudo
    No.
[07:51] Kudo
    No! No! No!
[07:51] (Flashback) Kudo
    No! No! No!
[07:57] (Flashback) Man
    Now, witness as I return his arms to normal!
[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.
[09:14] The Tyrant
    Oh, screw it!
[09:16] The Tyrant
    I'll crush your skull and
    offer 'em your corpse!
[09:20] Los
    Hold thy horses!
[09:27] The Tyrant
    What was that?!
[09:28] Los
    I swear.
[09:31] Los
    Attacking a stray duckling.
    Thou hast no shame.
[09:37] Los
    My dear Ludens, say hello!
[09:48] Los
    Let me guess.
[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.
[14:15] (Flashback) Young Hort
    Stop it!
[14:17] (Flashback) Young Hort
    I'm scared!
[14:19] (Flashback) Young Hort
    Help! Mommy!
[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...

    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!
[17:48] Hort
    Kalpa fire, come forth!
[17:49] Hort
    Flare and blaze!
[17:51] The Tyrant
    What?!
[17:53] The Tyrant
    Shit. Gimme that!
[18:00] Hort
    Chapter of Hunting,
[18:01] Hort
    final verse!
[18:03] Hort
    Flagis!
[18:04] Hort
    My name is Hort!
[18:15] The Tyrant
    Hey, now, missy.
[18:17] The Tyrant
    What was that?
[18:19] Hort
    N-No way!
[18:21] The Tyrant
    A betrayal?
[18:23] The Tyrant
    That's the child of a demon for ya.
[18:31] Saybil
    The Staff of Ludens...
[18:35] The Tyrant
    If ya ain't gonna be useful,
[18:38] The Tyrant
    then die!
[18:43] Staff of Ludens
    Use me.
[18:49] Los
    No, Sayb! Don't touch it!
[18:52] Saybil
    I'm sorry, Professor Los.
[18:55] Saybil
    For being dead weight.
[19:05] The Tyrant
    What the hell is this?
[19:08] Los
    Ludens, no!
[19:10] Los
    Release that boy!
[19:14] Kudo
    What's going on?
[19:18] Hort
    S-Sayb!
[19:21] Hort
    Sayb!
[19:46] Hort
    Sayb!
[19:48] Hort
    You're alive!
[19:50] Hort
    Thank goodness! You're alive!
[19:54] Saybil
    Huh? We're all alive...
[19:57] Los
    And what is that supposed to mean, pray tell?
[20:00] Los
    Thou fool!
[20:02] Los
    Using the witch-eating staff is suicide!
[20:05] Los
    If thou needest someone to be dead to
    learn thy lesson, I can kill someone now.
[20:11] Los
    Will that bring thee to thy senses?
[20:14] Los
    Each and every one of you,
    foolhardy! Foolhardy! Foolhardy!
[20:19] Kudo
    I wasn't that reckless, though.
[20:21] Los
    Excuse me?
[20:23] Los
    Thy overweening refusal of mine escort
[20:26] Los
    is what got us into this
    mess in the first place!
[20:29] Kudo
    F-Face too close!
[20:31] Hort
    Professor, calm dow—
[20:32] Los
    To be honest, Hort, I never
    imagined thou couldst track me.
[20:37] Los
    The greater the talent,
    the greater the burden of its misuse!
[20:41] Hort
    Professor, you're too close!
[20:44] Los
    I did not forget about thee, Ludens!
[20:47] Los
    How darest thou make eyes at Sayb
    despite having me as your pact-holder!
SIGN    I'm sorry
[20:53] Los
    I sentence thee to a day of being sealed.
[21:01] Saybil
    Professor Los,
[21:02] Saybil
    how can it be that I am alive?
[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!
[21:51] Kudo
    Fine! I'll come with you!
[21:55] Los
    Much better.
[21:57] Kudo
    Damn it.
[21:58] Kudo
    Guess I better go grab
    my tail and reattach it.
[22:03] Kudo
    What is it?
[22:05] Hort
    Um, well...
[22:07] Hort
    Sorry. I used your tail as a spell offering.
[22:16] Kudo
    You what?!
[22:19] Hort
    My bad.
[22:20] Kudo
    Y-You got some nerve...!
[22:22] Los
    Oh, come on! Get along, you two!
[23:56] Los
    'Tis good that everyone is unharmed.

[00:04] Hort
    Can't sleep?
[00:15] Hort
    Hey, um...
[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.
[02:42] Hort
    You should go to bed soon, too, Sayb!
[02:46] Los
    She would have let you put
    the moves on her just now.
[02:51] Saybil
    Professor Los?
[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?

[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

[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.

    What's going on?
[23:56] Hort
    Did I die? Tell me! Tell me!

[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.

    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.

[00:01] Saybil
    Two months have passed since we arrived.
[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! Shut up!
[24:03] Saybil
    Next episode: "I Can't Save Anything."
[24:06] Los
    Hang in there, my ducklings!

[00:01] Kudo
    Who's my next patient?
[00:04] Kudo
    My room?
[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."
[02:17] Los
    If thou wishest to talk a big game,
    put in the work first.
[02:21] Kudo
    D-Don't call me an edge-lizord!
[02:25] Los
    Now you, Sayb.
[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?
[03:04] Los
    No one will die if you
    three take one day off.
[04:43] Los
    Have a good day!
SIGN    Episode 7   "I Can't Save Anything"
[04:46] Hort
    You, too, Professor! We're off!
[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!

[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.
[07:04] (Flashback) Saybil
    Do you want to go out with
    me while I practice magic?
[07:07] (Flashback) Laios
    So, you'll practice magic with me every day?
[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.
[07:47] the Tyrant
    To be alone at night like this.
[08:03] (Flashback) Young Saybil
    Yet another person you love
    is gonna die because of you.
[08:08] (Flashback) Young Saybil
    How long are you gonna repress it?
[08:14] (Flashback) Saybil's Mom
    Listen closely, dear.
[08:16] (Flashback) Saybil's Mom
    You must never approach a 
    witch who has eyes like yours.
[08:22] (Flashback) Young Saybil
    Mom...
[08:24] (Flashback) Saybil's Mom
    She'll take everything from you.
[08:50] (Flashback) Witch
    Hid him in a barrier, eh?
[08:52] (Flashback) Witch
    Come out, child.
[08:55] (Flashback) Witch
    If you don't want to let your mom die.
[08:58] (Flashback) Witch
    Come on.
[09:06] (Flashback) Young Saybil
    Mom!
[09:23] (Flashback) Witch
    Now, come along.
[09:28] (Flashback) Witch
    Show me.
[09:37] (Flashback) Witch
    Ah, the power! Just the
    slightest touch and I feel it.
[09:42] (Flashback) Witch
    Yes!
[09:43] (Flashback) Witch
    This is...
[09:52] (Flashback) Witch
    Stop!
[09:53] (Flashback) Witch
    Let go of me!
[10:22] the Tyrant
    Hey!
[10:27] the Tyrant
    Spare me all that.
[10:29] Zero
    My orders were to take
     you alive this time.
[10:34] Saybil
    Um, am I being abducted?
[10:37] the Tyrant
    What does it look like?
[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?
[11:02] Kudo
    Hey! Stop them!
[11:04] Hort
    Th-They aren't stopping!
[11:11] Saybil
    Hort! Kudo!
[11:16] Kudo
    Are you okay, Saybil?
[11:20] the Tyrant
    Oh. Look here.
[11:23] the Tyrant
    No escort today!
[11:29] Los
    My dear Ludens!
[11:32] ---
    Clean up!
[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!

    You really don't want to come back with 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

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.

[00:01] Kady
    You aren't gonna kill me?
[00:03] Kudo
    You aren't worth killing.
[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.
[00:18] Kady
    Fighting to eradicate evil is a great deed!
[00:24] Kudo
    And what is evil to you?
[00:27] Kudo
    What are your criteria?
[00:28] Kudo
    Who is it fine to kill?
[00:32] Kady
    Witches and beastfallen.
[00:34] Kudo
    How many witches
    and beastfallen do you know?
[00:40] Kady
    Hey! Where are we going?
[00:43] Kudo
    Follow me.
SIGN    Episode 10              Snack Time
[02:19] Kudo
    Oh? You aren't gonna eat?
[02:33] Lilly
    Wow! It's all gone!
[02:36] Lilly
    Tell me, tell me. Which dish was the best?
[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.
[04:02] Lilly
    I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!
[04:09] Kady
    Um, you don't need to apologize.
[04:13] Kady
    Uh... It was better
    than anything I've ever eaten.
[04:19] Kady
    Thank you for the meal.
[04:23] Lilly
    Come back again sometime!
[04:26] Kudo
    It's pointless to try to escape.
[04:28] Kudo
    Just go to sleep.
[04:33] Kudo
    What's your name?
[04:36] Kady
    K-Kady.
[04:38] Kudo
    I'm Kudo.
[04:40] Kids
    That's a weird name.
[04:41] Kudo
    I'll knock your head off!
[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.
[07:27] (Flashback) Church Official
    Kill witches.
[07:29] (Flashback) Church Official
    Otherwise...
[07:30] (Flashback) Kids' Voices (Creepy/distorted)
    Kady! Kady!
[07:34] (Flashback) Kids' Voices (Creepy/distorted)
    Let's play!
[07:38] Kids' Voices (Normal)
    Kady! Kady!
[07:40] Kids' Voices (Normal)
    Let's play!
[07:40] Hort
    Kady!
[07:44] Hort
    Come catch fish with us at the river!
[07:47] Kady
    Fish?
[07:49] Children
    Fishies! Fishies!
[07:51] Children
    Our fondest wishie is to catch a fishie!
[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!
[16:36] Hort
    Ms. Hearthful, come to the riverbank!
[16:38] Hearthful
    Mr. Tyrant!
[16:43] Kudo
    Come on, Hort!
[16:46] Hort
    I'll put him to sleep!
[16:47] Hort
    Ravon Y Zaleik!
[16:49] Hort
    Beckon to slumber!
[16:50] Hort
    Chapter of Capture, verse two!
[16:53] Hort
    Culdesomn!
[16:55] Hort
    Grant me power!
[16:57] Hort
    My name is Hort!
[17:03] Kady (Stomach Voice)
    Hungry...
[17:06] Kudo
    It's not working!
[17:07] Hort
    I know!
[17:09] Hort
    I think Kady is probably unconscious!
[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!
[18:29] Hort
    O cradle, take the transgressor
    in your embrace!
[18:32] Hort
    Chapter of Capture, verse three!
[18:36] Hort
    Etorak!
[18:37] Hort
    Back away, Tyrant!
[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

    snack time!
[23:55] Hort
    If there were a single
    mastermind behind it all

    If there were a single mastermind

[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?!
[23:27] Los
    A demon-possessed, huh?
[23:30] Los
    Looks like they're not quite
    as ragtag as we expected.
[23:37] Los
    Witness, my friend.
[23:41] Los
    Thou, too, wilt surely
    appreciate this farce.
[23:48] Los
    My dear Ludens,
[23:52] Los
    say hello!
[23:55] Los
    What dost thou think is required
    to beat an enemy without killing them?
SIGN    Next Episode

[24:00] Los
    'Tis overwhelming superiority.
[24:03] Los
    Next episode: "The Beginning of the Adventure."
[24:05] Los
    Very well!
[24:06] Los
    You will bring those words
    to my lips, won't you?

    They're huge!
[00:27] Commander A
    We're changing our route!
[00:28] Commander A
    Right! Circle to the right!
[00:33] Commander A
    Are the troops in the rear still with us?
[00:49] Soldiers
    What?
[00:51] Soldiers
    My hands!
[00:53] Soldiers
    My legs!
[00:54] Soldiers
    What even happened?
[00:55] Soldiers
    What's going on?
[00:56] Commander A
    This is absurd...
[01:11] Company Leader
    Commander! Look!
SIGN    Boo! Did we startle you?
[01:37] Commander B
    Wh-What?!
[01:39] Soldiers
    What happened?
[01:40] Soldiers
    What on earth was that?
[01:41] Soldiers
    Was that magic?
[01:44] Soldiers
    This is what witches can do?
[01:46] Commander B
    We're being toyed with?
[01:50] Commander B
    Retreat.
[01:51] Soldier D
    Sir?
[01:53] Commander B
    We're lucky to have our lives.
[01:55] Commander B
    The witches just showed us mercy.
[02:14] Zero
    Now, then, this is the current situation.
[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.
[03:29] Boss (Demon-possessed)
    It will be more entertaining
    that killing her here.
[03:34] Beastfallen D
    I like it!
[03:35] Beastfallen D
    Did ya hear that, mouse?
[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!
[05:28] Priest
    Lilly, hide in the treetops.
[05:29] Lilly
    Y-Yes, Father!
[05:33] Priest
    It's true that I am not strong,
[05:37] Priest
    but I cannot stand being taken lightly.
[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!
[07:59] Beastfallen B
    Ha-hah!
[08:01] Hort
    Sayb!
[08:02] Saybil
    Don't worry. I've got this.
[08:13] Hort
    Wow, Sayb! A new move!
[08:15] Kudo
    D-Don't accidentally touch me, dude!
[08:18] Hort
    Then I'll bring out my trump card!
[08:27] Hort
    Ta-dah!
[08:28] Hort
    A no-incantation Flagis
    with ultra-precise targeting!
[08:40] Hort
    Oh, snap...
[08:41] Hort
    I-I overdid it, a little.
[08:44] Kudo
    I swear...
[08:45] Kudo
    I've got it.
[08:57] Zero
    Now,
[08:58] Zero
    tell me, beastfallen soldiers.
[09:00] Zero
    What is your next move?
[09:19] Hort
    What was that all of a sudden?
[09:27] Kudo
    You okay, old man?
[09:29] Mercenary
    Who're ya callin' old man?
    I'll wring your neck!
[09:36] Mercenary
    You piece of shit!
[09:45] Mercenary
    It's no use. I can't kill him dead.
[09:51] Mercenary
    Damn.
[09:52] Mercenary
    Sorry, Witch! Give me a little help!
[09:56] Zero
    I shall handle it.
[09:57] Zero
    I am in top form now, after all.
[09:59] Zero
    Students, I shall set a bad example for you.
[10:04] Zero
    Mercenary, on my signal,
[10:06] Zero
    retreat outside the wall.
[10:08] Mercenary
    H-Hey! I didn't ask you to go that far!
[10:13] Zero
    Ard Gehrd In De Cor Dia Zea.
[10:19] Zero
    In the name of the King of Despair who leered
    from the crossroads of desire and longing,
[10:24] Zero
    come forth from the mud-black
    abyss, O Gate of Decay!
[10:29] Zero
    Servants of strife bound
    by contract of blood and flesh,
[10:34] Zero
    Descend on this fool's wild banquet and feast!
[10:37] Zero
    Get back, Mercenary!
[10:39] Mercenary
    You got it!
[11:00] Zero
    Forbidden Chapter, final page!
[11:02] Zero
    Segtor Medis!
[11:04] Zero
    Grant me power, for I am Zero!
[11:20] Zero
    Arisen dead,
[11:22] Zero
    it's mealtime!
[11:54] Hort
    Is this magic, too?
[11:56] Zero
    If an outstanding mage
    goes down the wrong path,
[11:59] Zero
    they could easily bring the world to ruin.
[12:02] Zero
    So...
[12:04] Zero
    Don't go astray.
[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...
[13:30] Amnir
    Bag Do Wal Fel Do Al!
[13:33] Amnir
    O great serpent that slumbers in inferno!
[13:36] Amnir
    Awaken from the cradle of
    assembled hellfire and incinerate!
[13:40] Amnir
    Chapter of Harvest, page seven!
[13:42] Amnir
    Firam!
[13:44] Amnir
    Grant me power!
[13:54] Amnir
    What?
[14:00] Raul
    Yeah. As I thought.
[14:02] Amnir
    Raul!
[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.
