**[00:07] Lydia**
Gin-gin!
**[00:10] Lydia**
Let's wash each other's backs!
**[00:11] Ginny**
No, thank you!
**[00:12] Lydia**
Let me rub your sudsy boobs!
**[00:22] Latima**
Excuse me.
**[00:24] Latima**
It's a pleasure to meet you.
**[00:26] Latima**
I'm Latima.
**[00:28] Latima**
You'll all be staying here in this
villa until our next expedition.
**[00:33] Latima**
Lady Lydia has informed me
**[00:36] Latima**
you all are welcome to use this home as
you would your own or your close friend's.
**[00:41] Latima**
Please relax and make yourself at home.
**[00:45] Ard**
We're grateful.
**[00:49] Ard**
*Like a close friend's home, huh?*
**[00:54] Ard**
*And yet I killed someone so irreplaceable.*
**[01:00] Ard**
* Do I even have any right to call*
* her a close friend anymore?*
**[01:05] Lydia**
This sensation!
**[01:06] Lydia**
This volume!
**[01:07] Lydia**
They're the best!
**[01:09] Ginny**
Don't grope my breasts!
**[01:14] Ard**
*She's still a scumbag.*
***SIGN*** The Greatest Demon Lord
Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody
**[02:51] Ginny**
It's starting, isn't it?
**[02:53] Ireena**
W-Will we be okay?
**[02:56] Ard**
Our Verda Army is on standby
**[02:59] Ard**
in a location far removed
from the front lines.
**[03:02] Ard**
We won't be coming into major
conflict with the enemy.
**[03:06] Ard**
Even on the off chance that we do,
**[03:08] Ard**
that magic equipment will protect you two.
**[03:13] Ard**
*Judging from Verda and Lydia's conversations,*
**[03:17] Ard**
*we're currently in the past age when I,*
**[03:20] Ard**
* that is, the Demon Lord Varvatos,*
* was expanding his forces*
**[03:24] Ard**
* and the battle against the demons and the*
* Outer Ones was entering its final stages.*
**[03:29] Ard**
*Plus, from what I can see,*
**[03:31] Ard**
* this is the probably the*
* Battle of Aralia Plains.*
**[03:34] Ard**
*Demons ruled over the Aralia Plains,*
**[03:38] Ard**
* and the combined forces of*
* the Lydia Army and Verda Army*
**[03:42] Ard**
* took down the many fortresses*
* and castle towns built there,*
**[03:45] Ard**
* building the foundation for*
* our control of the continent.*
**[03:51] Ard**
* I don't recall this battle*
* being any trouble, however.*
**[03:56] Lydia**
Advance!
**[04:15] SoldierAdlib**
My stomach hurts!
**[04:16] VerdaSoldierA**
Medics! Call the medics!
**[04:18] VerdaSoldierC**
Don't come back over that little!
**[04:19] SoldierAdlib**
You all right?
**[04:20] VerdaSoldierC**
Get back to the front-lines pronto!
**[04:22] SoldierAdlib**
I know!
**[04:23] SoldierAdlib**
Argh, my leg!
**[04:24] VerdaSoldierF**
Oh, I've left that corpse alone on purpose.
**[04:27] VerdaSoldierF**
It's for Lady Verda's data collection.
**[04:32] Ginny**
Miss Ireena!
**[04:33] Ginny**
We need to carry this
container to the supply squad!
**[04:37] Ireena**
I-I know.
**[04:41] Ireena**
Wh-What was that?
**[04:42] Ard**
Hmm, it seems like an enemy attack.
**[04:52] Bulgan**
Weep!
**[04:53] Bulgan**
Lament!
**[04:54] Bulgan**
Let your guts scatter across the ground!
**[05:03] Ireena**
I-I thought the enemy
wouldn't come to the rear?
**[05:06] Ard**
It looks like this enemy had some brains.
**[05:09] Ard**
Crushing the enemy's supplies and
medics is a standard tactic of war.
**[05:14] Ard**
My prediction that we'd
be safe back here was off,
**[05:18] Ard**
but that's even better for us.
**[05:20] Ard**
* This might not be enough*
* to meet the Demon Lord,*
**[05:24] Ard**
*but an achievement is still an achievement.*
**[05:37] Lydia**
Something's off.
**[05:39] Lydia**
I can't believe he hasn't shown himself,
even after we've advanced so far.
**[05:42] Messenger**
I have news!
**[05:44] Messenger**
The Verda Army supporting our rear suffered
a surprise attack from the enemy!
**[05:48] Lydia**
Hidden forces? How many?
**[05:50] Messenger**
There were not that many of them.
**[05:52] Messenger**
However, the one leading them
**[05:55] Messenger**
is the enemy commander, Bulgan.
**[05:56] Lydia**
What?!
**[06:12] Bulgan**
Impossible!
**[06:14] Bulgan**
I can't—
**[06:24] Ard**
I guess he was all show.
**[06:27] Ard**
Is everyone all right?
**[06:29] Ard**
Hm?
**[06:33] Sylphy**
Big Sis Lydia?
**[06:35] Lydia**
Apparently, it was over
before we even arrived.
**[06:39] Ard**
Well, he wasn't even worth killing,
**[06:42] Ard**
but even a general this
weak is still a general.
**[06:45] Ard**
So I made sure to capture him alive.
**[06:47] Lydia**
This weak?
**[06:50] Lydia**
That's the big general we've
been trying to take down.
**[06:54] Ard**
Huh? The big general?
**[06:58] Sylphy**
You stole the glory from us!
**[07:00] Sylphy**
You cheeky new recruit!
**[07:03] Ireena**
Ard is just that awesome!
**[07:05] Ireena**
That's my Ard!
**[07:08] Lydia**
Well, either way.
**[07:10] Lydia**
You're impressive!
**[07:13] Lydia**
It's a just matter of time now,
**[07:16] Lydia**
until you meet with Varvy.
**[07:18] Ireena**
Varvy?
**[07:20] Ginny**
Is that?
**[07:21] Lydia**
Of course.
**[07:23] Lydia**
I'm talking about Varvatos.
**[07:29] Ireena**
Th-This is the Castle Millennion?
**[07:33] Ginny**
It's an amazing castle,
**[07:36] Ginny**
befitting that great man!
**[07:40] Ard**
* Beautiful, isn't it? Epic, isn't it?*
* And above all, it's cool, isn't it? My castle!*
**[07:50] Ireena**
Th-The inside's incredible, too.
**[07:52] Ginny**
I've never seen a building more worthy of
being described as luxurious and gorgeous.
**[07:58] Sylphy**
Hmph!
**[07:59] Sylphy**
There's nothing fun about this castle!
It's just big.
**[08:04] Sylphy**
The castle that Big Sis built
is a million times better!
**[08:10] Sylphy**
Wh-What?
**[08:12] Sylphy**
Is there something on my face?
**[08:14] Ard**
No, it's nothing.
**[08:16] Ireena**
I-It's finally happening!
**[08:19] Ireena**
I can't believe we'll get
to see him in person!
**[08:23] Ginny**
It feels like this is going
too smoothly, and I'm scared.
**[08:27] Ard**
*True.*
**[08:29] Ard**
* When I was in my prime, that is,*
* when I was Varvatos in this castle,*
**[08:33] Ard**
*such a feat would come naturally.*
**[08:35] Ard**
*Yet right now I'm Ard Meteor.*
**[08:39] Ard**
* If a nameless, common soldier easily*
* defeated a big general, I'd be suspicious.*
**[08:56] Alvarto**
Bravo, bravo!
**[09:01] Alvarto**
Oh, my apologies.
**[09:03] Alvarto**
Please take that as my
praise for your endeavors.
**[09:07] Alvarto**
After all, this is the only
way I can express my respect.
**[09:12] Ard**
I've heard much about you, Sir Alvarto.
**[09:19] Lydia**
You're the same as always, aren't you?
**[09:23] Lydia**
If you want a fight that badly,
I'll be your opponent.
**[09:27] Alvarto**
I'd have no complaints about
sparring with the Champion.
**[09:31] Alvarto**
However, right now I would like to
savor the heights of the unknown.
**[09:39] Varvatos**
Lydia, Alvarto, why are you
two always causing trouble?
**[09:57] Lydia**
Long time no see, Varvy.
**[10:01] Alvarto**
You're as lovely as ever today, my lord.
**[10:04] Sylphy**
Tch.
**[10:05] Ireena**
Th-That's...
**[10:08] Ginny**
I can't...
**[10:10] Ireena**
Ginny?! Get a grip!
**[10:11] Ireena**
Hey! Ginny, come on! Ginny!
**[10:26] Varvatos**
I don't recall summoning you, Alvarto.
**[10:29] Varvatos**
How many promising recruits
have you crushed this way?
**[10:33] Varvatos**
That's why I wanted to hold this
audience in secret, but as usual...
**[10:38] Alvarto**
I'm overjoyed by your praise.
**[10:42] Varvatos**
Either way, you should leave now.
**[10:45] Varvatos**
Otherwise...
**[10:47] Alvarto**
I understand.
**[10:49] Alvarto**
I shall take my leave for now.
**[11:03] Ard**
*I've been alive for a long time,*
**[11:04] Ard**
* but this is the first time*
* I've been jealous of myself.*
**[11:08] Varvatos**
So you are Ard Meteor?
**[11:12] Ard**
Yes, I am, Your Majesty.
**[11:18] Varvatos**
Follow me.
**[11:20] Lydia**
Still, it really has been a long time, huh?
**[11:24] Lydia**
Hey, weren't you starting to miss me by now?
**[11:29] Lydia**
You don't have any friends
aside from me, after all.
**[11:33] Varvatos**
You're calling yourself a friend?
**[11:36] Lydia**
What, acting all shy now?
**[11:43] Varvatos**
You all may relax, as well.
**[11:47] ServantA**
Your Majesty, would you
like something to drink?
**[11:49] ServantB**
Your Majesty, I've brought a light meal.
**[11:51] ServantC**
Your Majesty, would you like a massage?!
**[11:54] ServantD**
Restrain yourself, servant!
**[11:56] ServantD**
You must not touch His Majesty's body!
**[11:59] Varvatos**
All of you are dismissed.
**[12:01] Servants**
Yes, sir!
**[12:02] Ireena**
The Demon Lord is far prettier than I imagined.
**[12:06] Ginny**
Pretty?!
**[12:08] Ginny**
Such a common form of expression
is worthy of death, Miss Ireena!
**[12:12] Ginny**
The Demon Lord can only be
described with loftier words!
**[12:18] Varvatos**
You there, young lady.
**[12:19] Varvatos**
who is this Demon Lord you refer to?
**[12:22] Both**
What?! Um, well...
**[12:26] Ard**
They merely voiced the other
name Your Majesty is known by.
**[12:30] Ard**
They were simply copying the
title they heard in the ports.
**[12:37] Ard**
Were you... not aware of that?
**[12:39] Ard**
*That's odd.*
**[12:40] Ard**
* The title of "Demon Lord" was*
* already taking root by this time.*
**[12:45] Varvatos**
Now that's an odd story.
**[12:48] Varvatos**
I know there is another
known as Demon Lord...
**[12:52] Ard**
There's another Demon Lord?
**[12:56] Varvatos**
But people now call me that?
**[12:59] Ard**
No, I'm sure it must have
been our misunderstanding.
**[13:04] Ard**
My sincerest apologies for the
strange slip of the tongue.
**[13:13] Verda**
Oh?
**[13:14] Verda**
So then what, then what?
**[13:16] Ard**
Nothing.
**[13:18] Ard**
He didn't demand anything of us,
**[13:20] Ard**
and I didn't speak to him
about that any further.
**[13:25] Ireena**
I can't believe there are two Demon Lords.
**[13:28] Ginny**
What do you think could be going on?
**[13:30] Verda**
I think it's safe to assume that
who you consider the Demon Lord
**[13:34] Verda**
and who we consider the Demon
Lord are two different people.
**[13:39] Ard**
Meaning?
**[13:41] Verda**
If I may speak in bold conjecture,
**[13:44] Verda**
I think it's possible that your history
differs from the history of our dimension.
**[13:52] Ard**
Dimension?
**[13:54] Verda**
This is just a theory, as well,
**[13:56] Verda**
but I think someone altered history.
**[13:59] Verda**
And that alteration gave rise to this dimension's
Demon Lord that all of you don't recognize.
**[14:07] Ard**
There's also what that
self-proclaimed god said.
**[14:10] (Flashback) Mysterious Child**
However, "that being" is
trying to upset that order.
**[14:13] (Flashback) Mysterious Child**
Trying to transcend those
laws and alter the world.
**[14:18] (Flashback) Mysterious Child**
The encounter with the Demon Lord
**[14:21] (Flashback) Mysterious Child**
will greatly shake your world,
**[14:23] (Flashback) Mysterious Child**
and one shall vanish.
**[14:25] (Flashback) Mysterious Child**
I want you to eliminate "that being."
**[14:30] Ard**
I think we misinterpreted what
that self-proclaimed god said.
**[14:34] Ireena**
Huh?
**[14:35] Ard**
The self-proclaimed god demanded
that we meet the Demon Lord,
**[14:39] Ard**
and that we eliminate "that being."
**[14:42] Ard**
But if those two demands represent
the same thing, then...
**[14:47] Ginny**
Th-Then the one that's altering
history is this world's Demon Lord,
**[14:51] Ginny**
and if we defeat him to restore our history,
**[14:53] Ginny**
we'll be able to return to our world?
**[14:57] Ard**
Most likely.
**[14:59] Ard**
I thought meeting the
Demon Lord, or rather His Majesty,
**[15:02] Ard**
would greatly advance our quest, though.
**[15:05] Ginny**
Way to go, Ardy!
**[15:07] Ginny**
I mean, thanks to your deduction
**[15:10] ---**
we now know that this world's Demon Lord
is the one we need to defeat!
**[15:14] Ard**
That's still just a theory, and even if want
to defeat him, we know nothing about him...
**[15:18] Ireena**
Then why don't we ask
for Lord Varvatos's help?
**[15:22] Verda**
Oh, that's impossible.
**[15:24] Ireena**
Huh? Why?!
**[15:26] Verda**
For one thing, the Demon Lord of this world
**[15:29] Verda**
appeared out of nowhere
about three years ago,
**[15:33] Verda**
and he conquered the lands between the
Outer Ones' territory and our own in no time.
**[15:39] Verda**
To be honest, we don't know
what the Demon Lord is after.
**[15:42] Verda**
We've tried to negotiate, but he ignores us.
**[15:45] Verda**
Varvy fought him once,
but he couldn't fully defeat him.
**[15:50] Ireena**
Even Lord Varvatos couldn't defeat him?
**[15:53] Ard**
I see. Then His Majesty wouldn't
act without sufficient cause.
**[15:57] Verda**
That's right.
**[15:59] Verda**
You understand Varvy well.
**[16:02] Ard**
I suppose.
**[16:03] Ginny**
Um,
**[16:05] Ginny**
why don't we try revealing
our situation to His Majesty?
**[16:09] Ireena**
Our situation?
**[16:10] Ginny**
Yes.
**[16:12] Ginny**
We tell him that we're from the future.
**[16:15] Ginny**
Then if we explain the
danger of the Demon Lord...
**[16:19] Ard**
I see.
**[16:21] Ard**
However, we haven't earned enough of
His Majesty's trust to ask for his help.
**[16:28] Ireena**
Which means...
**[16:29] Ard**
It could be possible to persuade him
if we earn more achievements for him.
**[16:35] Ard**
Though the problem would be what constitutes
an achievement big enough to earn his trust.
**[16:41] Lydia**
Hey! Is Ard here?!
**[16:53] Lydia**
What's brought this on?
**[16:56] Lydia**
You agreed instantly, despite
wanting to work as logistical support.
**[17:01] Lydia**
Time for battle!
**[17:02] Lydia**
You're joining me on the front lines!
**[17:05] Ard**
Roger that!
**[17:08] Ard**
Yes, well, you could say
it's just what we needed.
**[17:13] Sylphy**
I bet you're just enjoying the
taste of your last victory!
**[17:17] Sylphy**
This time I'm taking the glory, though!
**[17:20] Lydia**
Glory aside,
**[17:23] Lydia**
it was wise to leave those
two behind this time,
**[17:27] Lydia**
considering who we'll be facing.
**[17:30] Ard**
Who's that?
**[17:34] Lydia**
Mevilas the Curse King.
**[17:41] Sylphy**
Looks like even you're scared.
**[17:44] Ard**
I have certainly heard his name before.
**[17:48] Sylphy**
Huh? Only his name?
**[17:51] Sylphy**
You should've heard more than
that! He's a really major enemy.
**[17:55] Sylphy**
Listen up.
**[17:56] Sylphy**
Just as mages are ranked
from one through seven,
**[18:00] Sylphy**
demons have ranks, as well!
**[18:03] Sylphy**
Mevilas is one of the demon's highest ranks,
**[18:08] Sylphy**
making him an archdemon!
**[18:12] Sylphy**
If you don't want to die,
then, at least remember that!
**[18:16] Ard**
*Remember? There's no way I could forget.*
**[18:20] Ard**
*Mevilas is...*
**[18:36] Ard**
*one of the reasons I had to kill Lydia.*
**[18:40] Lydia**
What's wrong?
**[18:42] Ard**
Oh, just, after hearing such a renowned name,
**[18:44] Ard**
I'm shaking with excitement.
**[18:46] Lydia**
I get it.
**[18:47] Lydia**
I thought it was high time for
a really bad one to show up.
**[18:50] Lydia**
I didn't think it would
be the Curse King already.
**[18:59] Lydia**
Charge!
**[19:04] Sylphy**
I'm taking the honor of leading the charge!
**[19:18] Ard**
Let's hurry onward!
**[19:20] Sylphy**
H-Hey, don't get carried away
just because you want glory!
**[19:24] Sylphy**
No matter how many small fry you kill,
you won't get any honor for them!
**[19:30] Lydia**
You're awfully motivated, aren't you?
**[19:38] Ard**
*I always hated that look of hers.*
**[19:46] Lydia**
Don't do anything stupid.
**[19:50] Ard**
*I have no intention of doing anything stupid.*
**[19:54] Ard**
* This time, I won't allow*
* history to play out the same way.*
**[20:22] Ard**
What's this?
**[20:42] Lydia**
This head?!
**[20:44] Sylphy**
It's Mevilas the Curse King.
**[20:49] NewDemonLord**
Looks like you were a little late.
**[21:01] Ard**
Who are you?
**[21:04] NewDemonLord**
You already have an idea who, don't you?
**[21:07] NewDemonLord**
I'm exactly who you suspect I am.
**[21:12] NewDemonLord**
I'm the Demon Lord.
**[21:14] NewDemonLord**
A monster of violence and tyranny,
the enemy of the world.
**[21:22] NewDemonLord**
Go ahead and tell your leader for me.
**[21:25] NewDemonLord**
I'll be taking the lands I set eyes on.
**[21:28] NewDemonLord**
If he wants to take them back,
then he can come steal them by force.
**[21:33] Lydia**
Does that mean you're declaring war on us?
**[21:41] NewDemonLord**
Farewell, Champion,
**[21:43] NewDemonLord**
and you, foolish young man.
