    The Dark Realm's second-in-command,
     the Great Jahy,

    lorded over all the dark land of the realm.
[00:15] nar
    She even ruled the Dark Palace as her own.
[00:19] nar
    She lived lavishly,
[00:21] nar
    and all the Dark Realm
    admired and envied her for it.

    Lukewarm. Gross.

    Today is the day I find a mana crystal!
[00:54] jah
    Then I'll be done with living this way!

    Druj Asks No Questions!
[03:02] jah
    This pebble is two million yen?!
[03:05] jah
    What kind of business is this?
[03:07] jah
    How many hours would I have to work for that?
[03:10] jah
    Even if I saved all my money
    by not paying rent, that'd be...
[03:15] jah
    Oh, well.
[03:17] jah
    It's not like anybody would ever buy this.
[03:20] jah
    Wait? It sold?!
[03:29] dru
    O Great Jahy?
[03:31] dru
    That's you... isn't it, Your Greatness?
[03:34] jah
    Y-Yes.
[03:37] dru
    It has been too long!
[03:40] dru
    It is I, Druj!
[03:42] jah
    Druj?
[03:47] jah
    Druj...
[03:48] jah
    Oh, that Druj?!
[03:51] (Flashback) jah
    I can try this new weapon out on you, right?
[03:56] (Flashback) druj
    It would be my pleasure!
[03:59] (Flashback) jah
    I'm tired. Be a chair for me.
[04:01] (Flashback) druj
    O-Of course!
[04:03] (Flashback) druj
    Oh, Your Greatness,
    you're so heavy with nobility!
[04:07] (Flashback) jah
    You want some, too?
[04:12] (Flashback) dru
    Your cruelty is just so...
     I can't get enough!
[04:17] dru
    In the months since the Dark Realm fell,
[04:19] dru
    I've had no idea where anyone was.
    I've been quite worried.
[04:24] dru
    I'm so elated to see
    you're all right, Your Greatness!
[04:27] jah
    I'm also pleased to see you well, Druj.
[04:29] jah
    But... what's with your appearance?
[04:33] dru
    You mean this?
[04:34] dru
    If I dressed as I did in the Dark Realm,
     I would stand out too much.
[04:38] dru
    I also go by Dojima here for that reason.
[04:43] jah
    Standing out? I never
    even thought about that...
[04:48] dru
    Incidentally, Your Greatness,
[04:50] dru
    why do you look like that?
[04:52] jah
    Huh?
[04:53] dru
    Our enemy shattered the mana crystal
    and brought ruin to the Dark Realm,
[04:57] dru
    but even a peon like me
    was able to gather a few shards.
[05:01] dru
    I can't imagine someone of your standing
[05:03] dru
    would be so enfeebled by
    the mere loss of the mana crystal.

[05:11] dru
    O-Oh, I don't mean to say that your
    current form is anything but lovely!
[05:15] dru
    I'm sure there was some reason
     you chose to look this way!
[05:21] jah
    You don't even understand
    why I took this form, Druj?
[05:24] jah
    You really are an oaf of an idiot!
[05:27] dru
    I am so sorry, O Great Jahy!
[05:30] dru
    Now, whatever might your plan be?
[05:32] dru
    Please enlighten this idiot!
[05:34] jah
    The insolence! Think for yourself!
[05:37] jah
    I'm cute like this...
[05:39] jah
    The rest should be obvious.
[05:41] dru
    Could it be?!
[05:42] dru
    You've deliberately taken
    the form of a scrawny little girl
[05:46] dru
    to manipulate the sympathetic
     hearts of foolish humans?
[05:50] jah
    S-Scrawny little girl...?
[05:51] dru
    You're incredible, Your Greatness!
[05:53] dru
    A peon like me could never have
    conceived such a high-brow plan!
[05:57] jah
    Th-That's right...
[05:59] jah
    Except you conceived it just now.
[06:01] dru
    I am completely and utterly beneath you!
[06:05] ---
    Druj...
[06:07] wom
    Oh, miss?
[06:08] wom
    The gem you wanted...
[06:11] dru
    Ah, yes. Could you please have
    it delivered here later?
[06:15] wom
    Certainly.
[06:19] dru
    I'm so glad we ran into
     each other, Your Greatness.
[06:22] dru
    How about some tea?
[06:25] man
    Welcome. Party of two?
[06:31] jah
    What is this quiet place?
[06:34] jah
    It's so different from where I work.
[06:40] dru
    I quite like it here.
[06:42] jah
    Huh.
[06:44] wom
    Welcome. Here are your menus.
SIGN    Original Blend Organic Blend Espresso Blue Mountain
[06:50] jah
    Highway robbery!
[06:52] dru
    I'll have the thunderbolt Darjeeling
[06:55] dru
    and the mascarpone brûlée
    with a side of espresso gelato.
[06:59] jah
    Wha?
[07:00] dru
    And what would you like?
[07:04] jah
    I'll have... a water.
[07:08] both
    Water?!
[07:09] dru
    I-Is there nothing to your tastes?
[07:12] jah
    I can't order a drink that costs
    as much as week's worth of food!
[07:17] jah
    You call yourself my underling
    and you don't even understand that?
[07:20] jah
    I was so revered in the Dark Realm
    that all knew me.
[07:24] jah
    So when you're this famous...
[07:26] dru
    Don't tell me...
[07:27] dru
    A woman of your influence has enemies
[07:30] dru
    who may yet be seeking their opportunity
[07:33] dru
    to take you down here
    if you're not careful.
[07:36] dru
    So you would never dare
    eat food that might be poisoned.
[07:40] dru
    That's what you mean, right?
[07:42] jah
    Huh? Uh...
[07:43] jah
    Q-Quite right! Good job picking up on that.
[07:46] dru
    Ah, what a fool I am!
[07:50] dru
    How could I not realize
     something so obvious?!
[07:54] jah
    Beats me.
[07:55] jah
    It was all your idea.
[07:58] wom
    Here you are.
[08:01] wom
    That looks so good...
[08:04] dru
    With your permission, I shall dine now.
[08:07] jah
    S-Sure.
[08:17] dru
    Would you like a bite as well?
[08:20] dru
    I have tested it for poison, so it's safe.
[08:28] dru
    Oh, but there was that time...
[08:31] (Flashback) jah
    I'd never eat anything you touched, scum.
[08:35] (Flashback) jah
    Never offer me anything again.
[08:38] (Flashback) dru
    Your Greatness...
[08:39] (Flashback) dru
    M-May I have seconds?!
[08:42] dru
    That's what you told me.
[08:44] jah
    Stupid me!
[08:46] dru
    I'm terribly sorry.
[08:51] dru
    My apologies for eating without you.
[08:56] dru
    Still, I never dreamed that I'd be
     reunited with you in this world.
[09:01] jah
    Yeah...
[09:04] jah
    What were you doing at that store?
[09:06] jah
    Were you buying a mana crystal?
[09:09] dru
    Goodness no.
[09:10] jah
    Figures.
[09:11] jah
    Can't just throw around money like that.
[09:13] dru
    Stores run by mere humans
    would never sell mana crystals.
[09:18] jah
    Really?
[09:20] jah
    I-I was just testing you!
[09:22] dru
    Of course.
[09:25] dru
    By the way, where are you
    living now, Your Greatness?
[09:28] dru
    I'll drop you off.
[09:30] jah
    Ack!
[09:32] jah
    Oh, no! If she seems that shitty apartment,
[09:35] jah
    even stupid Druj will figure it out!
[09:39] jah
    How pathetically I'm living now...
[09:43] jah
    How low I've sunken after
    losing the mana crystal...
[09:46] jah
    All in that tiny apartment...
[09:51] jah
    Here is fine.
[09:57] dru
    Your Greatness?
[09:59] jah
    It's not for you to know yet.
[10:01] jah
    Druj, I am to restore the Dark Realm.
[10:05] jah
    I cannot reveal my main base
     of operations this soon.
[10:11] jah
    We shall meet again one day.
[10:16] dru
    Yes!
[10:21] dru
    I still have so much to learn...
[10:30] jah
    I should have at least asked for
    the location of a mana crystal.
[10:37] nar
    The Great Jahy was proud.
[10:44] nar
    Mana crystals...
[10:45] nar
    For demons, they are power itself.
[10:48] nar
    Those who hold them control the Dark Realm.
[10:52] nar
    All lust after a piece of them.
[11:01] jah
    Ah, there's no mistaking this reaction!
[11:04] jah
    There must be a large chunk
    of mana crystal here!
[11:09] jah
    That's tall!
[11:10] jah
    Quite a step up from
     my personal hole in the wall.
[11:14] jah
    Never mind that.
[11:15] jah
    It matters not the place.
[11:16] jah
    I will make this mana crystal mine!
[11:25] jah
    Just you wait!
[11:26] dru
    Your Greatness...?
[11:28] dru
    It is you!
[11:29] jah
    Druj?!
[11:30] jah
    I-Indeed, we meet again.
[11:33] jah
    Don't tell me Druj is also here
    for the mana crystal...
[11:37] jah
    The impudence of this wannabe!
[11:43] jah
    What's up?
[11:44] jah
    You need something?
[11:46] dru
    Oh, you! Surely you came here
     knowing what this place is.
[11:51] jah
    O-Of course I did.
[11:52] jah
    I found it first—
[11:53] dur
    I'm impressed you found where I live!
    Just incredible!
[11:57] dur
    Please, do come in.
[11:59] jah
    N-No, I...
[12:01] dru
    I just had some ice cream delivered.
[12:04] jah
    I'll take some.
[12:06] dru
    Please make yourself comfortable.
[12:12] jah
    That's nice.
[12:14] dru
    Compared to your abode,
    I'm sure mine is small and shabby...
[12:20] jah
    Y-You could say that!
[12:21] jah
    Damn that Druj, living better than me!
[12:25] jah
    Oh, this feeling...
[12:28] jah
    It's like being back in the Dark Realm.
[12:34] jah
    I suppose your accommodations
     are satisfactory.
[12:38] jah
    The buildings around here
    are also fair enough.
[12:40] dur
    Here you go.
[12:42] dur
    This is a high-class residential area.
[12:45] jah
    Is that so?
[12:47] dru
    It's obviously nothing
    compared to the Dark Palace,
[12:50] dru
    but the view isn't terrible.
[12:56] jah
    Automatic?!
[13:03] jah
    Not a bad view.
[13:06] dru
    If you look over there, that building
    reminds me of the Dark Realm.
[13:10] dru
    It's like the kennel for the hellhounds.
[13:13] jah
    That's where I live!
[13:15] jah
    Damn you, Druj!
[13:16] jah
    This is humiliating!
[13:19] jah
    That scared me!
[13:21] jah
    What is this thing?!
[13:23] dru
    You don't know?
[13:25] jah
    I mean... It must be your familiar, no?
[13:28] dru
    It's a cleaning robot...
[13:30] jah
    I-I know that!
[13:32] jah
    In the Dark Realm,
    the cleaning was done by familiars.
[13:35] jah
    So in essence, a cleaning
    robot is a familiar, too!
[13:38] dru
    Oh, that's certainly true!
[13:40] dru
    Do pardon me.
[13:42] dru
    If I may say, this world's home
    electronics are actually quite useful.
[13:47] dru
    They automatically clean,
[13:49] dru
    do the dishes,
[13:51] dru
    and make food.
[13:54] jah
    I let her talk and she rattles off one
    expensive-sounding thing after the other!
[13:59] jah
    I've had enough!
[14:01] jah
    You disappoint me, Druj!
[14:03] jah
    We hail from the Dark Realm!
[14:05] jah
    Taking such delight in human
    inventions is inexcusable!
[14:09] jah
    Where is the Druj who loved
    and served the Dark Realm?!
[14:13] jah
    I am saddened!
[14:14] txt
    S H O C K
[14:19] dru
    Y-You are precisely right...
[14:20] jah
    Indeed.
[14:23] jah
    That's...
[14:25] jah
    Mana crystals!
[14:27] jah
    And quite a load of them!
[14:30] jah
    Druj is down.
[14:32] jah
    This might be my chance!
[14:36] jah
    Your mana crystals are mine!
[14:40] jah
    You still have lots to learn, Druj!
[14:42] jah
    This is what you get for relying
    so much on the tools of man.
[14:51] jah
    Huh?
[14:55] jah
    Wh-What is this?
[14:56] jah
    Scary!
[14:56] jah
    I'm scared!
[15:03] dru
    You are just incredible, Your Greatness!
[15:05] dru
    You put yourself at risk
[15:08] dru
    just to demonstrate the shortcomings
     of my mana crystal anti-theft system!
[15:12] dru
    These human-designed systems
    just aren't enough!
[15:16] dru
    They're worthless if they don't detect
    when the crystal is about to be stolen!
[15:21] dru
    You sacrificed yourself
    just to show me that!
[15:24] dru
    Thank you so much!
[15:36] (Flashback) dru
    Please accept this as thanks.
[15:41] jah
    Gimme something I can eat!
[15:44] jah
    Damn you, Druj!
[15:46] nar
    That day, the Great Jahy shed
     a great many tears.
[15:51] nar
    She then decided...
[15:58] jah
    Today is the day I get a mana crystal!
[16:01] jah
    I'm sure of it. There's a
    mana crystal on this mountain.
[16:04] jah
    I've been detecting a large
    chunk for a few days now.
[16:08] jah
    If I gather a mana crystal that size,
[16:10] jah
    even reviving the Dark Lord
    might be within my grasp.
[16:16] jah
    This is the first time I've ventured into
    the mountains of the human realm.
[16:20] jah
    But I'm totally prepared! It's perfect!
[16:28] jah
    The summit is that way.
[16:30] jah
    I am currently around here.
[16:38] jah
    I see, I see...
[17:04] jah
    What?
[17:05] nar
    The Great Jahy was incredibly lost.
[17:09] jah
    No reason to panic!
[17:11] jah
    This deep in the woods,
[17:12] jah
    there's no fear of Druj or anyone
    else beating me to the mana crystal.
[17:17] jah
    Besides, no matter how lost I get,
    I have my mana crystal.
[17:21] jah
    With this, I can always find my way
    to the mana crystal I'm looking for!
[17:29] jah
    H-H-Hold it!
[17:31] jah
    That's my mana crystal!
[17:43] jah
    Let's calm down and assess the situation.
[17:46] jah
    I came to this mountain chasing
    after a mana crystal reaction.
[17:50] jah
    Then my one and only way of finding it,
[17:52] jah
    my own mana crystal, was stolen by a crow.
[17:55] jah
    Is this the end?!
[17:58] jah
    No, that crow from before
    couldn't have gotten far.
[18:03] jah
    Besides, I know that there's another
    mana crystal somewhere on this mountain.
[18:08] jah
    I need to get mine back no matter what!
[18:16] jah
    All the food I brought is gone.
[18:19] jah
    I'm out of tea, too.
[18:24] jah
    I'm hungry.
[18:26] jah
    And it's getting cold.
[18:28] jah
    Maybe I shouldn't stay here.
[18:35] jah
    I need to get off the mountain and repl—
[18:56] jah
    It's the end of the road for the Great Jahy,
    second-in-command of the Dark Realm...
[19:00] jah
    I've got a twisted ankle.
    I'm too cold to move.
[19:04] jah
    I've got no food and no mana crystal...
[19:08] jah
    And no one to save me.
[19:23] jah
    Did you fall from your nest?
[19:25] jah
    You're just like me.
[19:28] jah
    Fallen, fragile, and fated to die...
[19:43] jah
    I won't let you die...
[19:45] jah
    I won't let you die!
[19:47] jah
    I shall save you!
[19:52] jah
    Hey, stop flapping around.
[20:00] jah
    Just a bit more.
[20:04] jah
    We made it!
[20:08] jah
    Huh? That's my mana crystal!
[20:11] jah
    And one more!
[20:13] jah
    I did it!
[20:23] jah
    This can't...
[20:25] jah
    Damn it!
[20:27] land
    What are you doing?
[20:30] jah
    Landlord?
[20:31] jah
    What are you doing all the way out here?
[20:34] lan
    All the way out here?
[20:36] lan
    This hill is right behind the apartment.
[20:40] lan
    What're you doing sopping wet
    and hanging from a tree?
[20:43] jah
    Shut up!
[20:44] jah
    Hurry up and get me down!
[20:46] lan
    "Get me down, please."
[20:50] lan
    You're covered in mud.
[20:52] jah
    Shut up, shut up! Shut up!
[20:56] jah
    Damn it...
[20:58] lan
