[00:05] ---
    Good job!
[00:07] ---
    You get an A for effort.
[00:13] ---
    Hey, when did those guys get here?
[00:15] ---
    They'd already arrived ten days ago.
[00:18] ---
    - The day we set out?
    - You've got to be kidding me.
[00:22] ---
    It's finally about to start, huh?
[00:24] ---
    Yeah.
[00:24] ---
    My heart is pounding!
[00:41] ---
    What's wrong?
[00:43] ---
    She looks so sad.
[00:50] ---
    Misfit...
[00:51] ---
    I hear that you were the first to arrive.
[00:54] ---
    Who are you?
[00:55] ---
    Third-year, Revest Aynie.
[00:58] ---
    Tell me, how did you cheat to get here?
[01:00] ---
    No need to feel bad.
[01:02] ---
    I hear that you made it in two days.
[01:04] ---
    That's exceptional enough.
[01:07] ---
    I apologize for my unfounded suspicions.
[01:11] ---
    However, I do not recognize you
    as the Demon King of Tyranny as you call yourself.
SIGN    INTER-ACADEMY EXAMS
[02:54] ---
    Demon King Academy students...
[02:56] ---
    I am Diego Kanon Ijaysica.
[02:59] ---
    I'm the headmaster of the Hero Academy...
[03:01] ---
    as well as in charge
    of the elite Jerga Kanon class.
[03:06] ---
    Today is the first day
    of the inter-academy classes.
[03:09] ---
    Let's start with a bit of re-creation.
[03:15] ---
    Using the objects on this table,
    each academy will demonstrate some magic.
[03:21] ---
    The old standby.
[03:22] ---
    The Hero Academy's representative
    will be Rank 2, Ledriano.
[03:26] ---
    Yes, sir.
[03:27] ---
    The Demon King Academy's
    representative will be...
[03:31] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[03:33] ---
    Our top-ranked third-year...
[03:35] ---
    Revest.
[03:40] ---
    This is Hero Magic, Lihid.
[03:43] ---
    Cast it onto a potion and its efficacy
    is increased. In the case of a sword...
[03:49] ---
    This is what happens.
[03:50] ---
    That was masterful, Ledriano.
[03:52] ---
    This is a fine example of Hero Magic,
    full of love and Holy Power!
[03:57] ---
    Now then, what do you have for us?
[04:01] ---
    I will show you all
    the Demonization Magic, Nedra.
[04:09] ---
    Nedra!
[04:10] ---
    Revest? What's going on?
[04:13] ---
    But why...
[04:17] ---
    Is that the best the top-ranked third-year student
    at the Demon King Academy can do?
[04:21] ---
    Don't be like that.
    I'm sure it's just nerves.
[04:24] ---
    Surely, the Demon King Academy isn't so subpar
    that they can't even cast a spell on a little mouse.
[04:33] ---
    You humans never get tired
    of setting people up, do you?
[04:38] ---
    You just cast not only Lihid,
    but also the Break Concealment, De Lenos.
[04:42] ---
    A concealed barrier that seals
    the magic cast by a demon.
[04:47] ---
    Once your trick's been exposed,
    there's nothing to it.
[05:04] ---
    What's wrong?
    Not quite enough magic for you?
[05:07] ---
    Lihid.
[05:12] ---
    No way!
[05:13] ---
    A-A Holy Sword?
[05:16] ---
    Even with Lihid,
    generating a Holy Sword is...
[05:19] ---
    In the first place,
    how could a demon...
[05:21] ---
    The power of Holy Magic
    is merely on a different wavelength.
[05:26] ---
    You've made your point.
[05:28] ---
    Anos Voldigoad...
[05:31] ---
    I suppose this means you're the reincarnation
    of the Demon King of Tyranny.
[05:35] ---
    What the hell are you talking about?
[05:37] ---
    Can't even make the distinction
    between white and black uniforms, huh?
[05:40] ---
    No way could a hybrid
    ever be the Demon King of Tyranny!
[05:44] ---
    If any of you are better than that guy,
    show yourselves now!
[05:47] ---
    He's a misfit.
    Are you criticizing the Royalty?
[05:51] ---
    Silence!
[05:53] ---
    Stop talking among yourselves!
[05:56] ---
    We're resuming class now!
[05:59] ---
    How's the investigation going?
[06:01] ---
    I looked into the legends of Azeshion,
[06:03] ---
    and there's no mention of Hero Kanon
    getting killed by a human.
[06:07] ---
    Is that right?
[06:08] ---
    That said, I did find an odd phrase
    in those legends.
[06:12] ---
    It has been handed down all over
    by Hero Academy graduates.
[06:18] ---
    "One day, this utter darkness will once again
    consume Azeshion, but have no fear.
[06:24] ---
    Offer hope along with your prayers
    to the legendary Hero.
[06:28] ---
    For then, he shall appear,
    the Spirit God Human Sword Evansmana in hand...
[06:33] ---
    and illuminate the world."
[06:39] ---
    Spirit God Human Sword Evansmana...
[06:41] ---
    The Holy Sword forged
    in order to destroy me, right?
[06:45] ---
    In other words,
    this legendary Hero would be Kanon,
[06:48] ---
    and the utter darkness
    consuming Azeshion would be...
[06:51] ---
    My reincarnation, huh?
[06:53] ---
    This legend is being handed down
    in order to kill my resurrected master yet again.
[06:59] ---
    I cannot help but see it that way.
[07:02] ---
    Anos! Do you have a minute?
[07:04] ---
    Carry on with the investigation.
[07:05] ---
    As you wish.
[07:10] ---
    What's up?
[07:11] ---
    Are you free now?
[07:17] ---
    A festival?
[07:19] ---
    To celebrate the birth of Hero Jerga.
[07:24] ---
    Oh, that guy?
[07:26] ---
    Huh?
[07:27] ---
    Over there... Isn't that...
[07:30] ---
    So, they're here, too, huh?
[07:32] ---
    Hey, just a second there!
[07:34] ---
    What?
[07:35] ---
    Well, maybe we shouldn't intrude.
[07:39] ---
    You've got some skills, boy!
[07:44] ---
    Sorry.
[07:46] ---
    I guess you're not really
    into fairs like this.
[07:48] ---
    N-No!
[07:50] ---
    It's just that, um...
[07:51] ---
    I have a lot on my mind.
[07:54] ---
    The Hero Academy students today all had
    a look in their eyes that I found a little scary.
[07:59] ---
    We came this close to brawling, didn't we?
[08:02] ---
    It's such a great chance
    to interact in these classes.
[08:04] ---
    Do you think there's going to be
    a lot of bad blood now?
[08:12] ---
    Wh-What are you doing?
[08:17] ---
    Even when someone's hostile to you,
    you never return that hostility, do you, Misa?
[08:21] ---
    O-Oh, I'm not that nice of a person, you know.
[08:25] ---
    But if it means
    joining hands with the Royals?
[08:27] ---
    But don't you think
    it'd be better if we could?
[08:31] ---
    You sure are strong.
[08:32] ---
    Your strength saved me
    during that incident with my mother.
[08:37] ---
    So, I've been wanting
    to show you my gratitude.
[08:39] ---
    Thank you.
[08:43] ---
    Th-This is kind of embarrassing.
[08:47] ---
    Wh-Which prize are you going to choose?
[08:49] ---
    Here you go!
    Pick out whatever you want!
[08:54] ---
    What are these necklaces made of?
[08:56] ---
    Oh, they're shells!
    They're adorable, don't you think?
[09:00] ---
    They'd make good souvenirs, too.
[09:02] ---
    Right.
[09:03] ---
    Then, I'll take these single-shell ones.
[09:06] ---
    Here.
[09:07] ---
    You're giving it to me?
[09:09] ---
    Yes. As a token of my gratitude.
[09:11] ---
    Th-Thank you very much.
[09:14] ---
    It's so pretty.
[09:16] ---
    There are two of them with two strings.
[09:20] ---
    H-Huh?
[09:22] ---
    Give it to me.
[09:34] ---
    Hey!
[09:35] ---
    What's up with that necklace?
[09:37] ---
    Oh, this? Um...
[09:38] ---
    Someone put it on me yesterday,
    and I couldn't get it off.
[09:42] ---
    You're right. I've never seen
    a clasp like this in Dilhade.
[09:46] ---
    Someone put it on you? Who?
[09:48] ---
    A-Actually...
[09:49] ---
    Come on, tell us!
[09:51] ---
    It's a secret!
[09:52] ---
    Come on, who is it?
[09:54] ---
    What a lovely present.
[09:56] ---
    You were watching?
[09:58] ---
    I looked it up, and the story
    behind that necklace is romantic, too.
[10:02] ---
    What kind of story is it?
[10:04] ---
    You mean the story
    of the Mishence Necklace?
[10:07] ---
    During the Great War
    two thousand years ago,
[10:09] ---
    two human lovers heading into the jaws of death
    broke a holy seashell in half to create two necklaces...
[10:14] ---
    and they each wore one to ensure that they'd be
    united again after they were reincarnated.
[10:19] ---
    Was it really that tragic a story?
[10:21] ---
    At first, yes.
[10:23] ---
    Later on, it became customary to make a single
    necklace out of two and give it to one's lover.
[10:28] ---
    Yeah, that! That's the one
    we're talking about now!
[10:31] ---
    If you break the single-shell necklace you gave
    your lover into two, it means you're proposing.
[10:37] ---
    Really?
[10:38] ---
    You gave it to her, Lay?
[10:40] ---
    When are you getting married?
[10:42] ---
    H-Hey!
[10:44] ---
    We never said anything about marriage!
[10:54] ---
    What's wrong?
[10:55] ---
    I don't see Eleanor anywhere.
[10:58] ---
    You're right. Did she call in sick?
[11:01] ---
    Today, we'll be holding
    the inter-academy exams.
[11:05] ---
    Each academy is to use their
    respective form of Troop Magic, Asla or Gyze.
[11:10] ---
    This will be the venue, Lake Seimei.
[11:13] ---
    There are underwater cities and caverns.
[11:17] ---
    We will be sending our elite class.
[11:19] ---
    And we'll be sending...
[11:21] ---
    I must ask you to please send out
    a decent team of students.
[11:24] ---
    Oh, but it would be too cruel to ask much
    of those students of yours, huh? Pardon me.
[11:33] ---
    Ms. Menou! Please send our team!
[11:35] ---
    Damn them for belittling us!
    We're going to rip them to shreds!
[11:39] ---
    Back off.
[11:41] ---
    You can't win even winnable contests
    if you jump at such cheap taunts.
[11:44] ---
    Huh? What did you say?
[11:46] ---
    Now, now.
[11:48] ---
    Settle down.
[11:49] ---
    Anos is right about that.
[11:51] ---
    Ms. Menou, don't tell me
    you're sending this guy out.
[11:53] ---
    I would've considered it
    if Team Anos had enough members.
[11:57] ---
    How many do we need?
[11:59] ---
    Ten or more.
[12:01] ---
    If we add those people,
    we'll have thirteen.
[12:04] ---
    - No complaints—
    - Hold up.
[12:07] ---
    The honor of our academy
    is at stake in this battle.
[12:10] ---
    We can't leave it
    in the hands of a misfit.
[12:14] ---
    You probably wouldn't understand,
[12:16] ---
    but we have the pride of having gotten
    this far thanks to Ms. Menou.
[12:21] ---
    Cheap taunt or not, letting it go
    would mean bringing shame to Ms. Menou.
[12:27] ---
    Fine. But make sure you expose the enemy's strategy,
    or you'll just be piling shame upon shame.
[12:32] ---
    I don't need you to tell me that.
[12:35] ---
    All right, that's settled, then.
[12:37] ---
    The thing is, to be honest,
    I'm pretty pissed myself.
[12:41] ---
    That's so like you to say that.
[12:43] ---
    Listen up!
    We're going to win no matter what!
[12:45] ---
    Right!
[12:52] ---
    The inter-academy exams will now begin!
[12:57] ---
    Revest, was it?
[12:59] ---
    What kind of man is he?
[13:01] ---
    He's very kindhearted.
[13:03] ---
    Sure, he may be
    the top-ranked third-year now,
[13:05] ---
    but when he first enrolled,
    he was an underachiever.
[13:08] ---
    He hated the founding ancestor, at first, too.
[13:11] ---
    But he's a Royalist now.
[13:14] ---
    What was it that changed that man?
[13:16] ---
    Years ago...
[13:24] ---
    You're working really hard, aren't you?
[13:27] ---
    I'm not good with magic
    developed for combat.

[13:30] ---
    I...
[13:31] ---
    - ...don't want to hurt anybody.
    - ...don't want to hurt anybody.

[13:36] ---
    You're a kindhearted boy, aren't you?
[13:39] ---
    True, Gyze is magic that we use for war.
[13:42] ---
    But you know what, the founding ancestor himself
    probably felt the same way as you.

[13:49] ---
    To protect, not to annihilate.
[13:52] ---
    I think that's why Gyze is a spell
    for sharing your Magic Power with your allies.

[13:57] ---
    The founding ancestor, too?
[14:00] ---
    Thank you very much, Ms. Menou.
[14:04] ---
    After that, he gained a respect for the founding
    ancestor far more intense than anyone else's.
[14:09] ---
    He was finally able to take pride
    in his own lineage.
[14:12] ---
    Can the founding ancestor's beliefs
    be found in the textbooks?
[14:15] ---
    If that was all we were going to teach,
    what would we need instructors for, right?
[14:29] ---
    No response!
[14:30] ---
    My Demonic Eyes aren't picking up
    the enemy's Magic Power!
[14:33] ---
    I can't summon my familiars, either!
[14:36] ---
    The Magic Power arena could be stagnant.
[14:38] ---
    What about Leaks?
[14:39] ---
    Viable!
[14:41] ---
    All right, all of you head out for reconnaissance.
[14:43] ---
    As you search for the enemy,
    report to me in a timely manner via Leaks.
[14:46] ---
    Right!
[14:56] ---
    Sir Revest, they're here!
    It's the Heroes!
[14:59] ---
    Sir Revest? Sir Revest!
[15:01] ---
    Do you know why you can't use it?
[15:05] ---
    Damn!
[15:08] ---
    Don't tell me this is...
[15:09] ---
    Your Magic Power's weakened!
[15:11] ---
    That's what this is!
[15:16] ---
    How lame is that!
[15:17] ---
    Just wiped up the floor
    with them over here!
[15:21] ---
    Talk about a blowout win!
    Jeez, what a drag!
[15:24] ---
    Laos, Heine, we're going to destroy
    the Demon King Castle now.
[15:30] ---
    Something's off. Why are we only seeing
    the Hero Academy students?
[15:34] ---
    Even if they were going to put up a barrier
    covering the whole lake, there just isn't time...
[15:38] ---
    They had something set up from the start.
[15:41] ---
    Can you tell what it is?
[15:43] ---
    It would be faster to see for yourself.
    I'll lend you my Demonic Eyes.
[15:49] ---
    Is this...
[15:50] ---
    There's Holy Water
    mixed in with the lake water.
[15:53] ---
    Holy Water which gives humans Magic Power
    and is toxic to demons.
[15:58] ---
    But this is the first time
    I've seen it used this way.
[16:01] ---
    They're receiving an endless supply
    of Holy Water through their magical gear.
[16:05] ---
    There should also be some kind
    of mechanism for controlling that Holy Water.
[16:10] ---
    But that's totally against the rules!
[16:12] ---
    Sir Revest, none of the units are responding!
[16:15] ---
    H-Here they come!
[16:17] ---
    Heroes from three different directions!
[16:19] ---
    Not yet! Keep drawing them in!
[16:28] ---
    Now!
[16:33] ---
    Rio Ayus, fire!
[16:46] ---
    No way.
[16:56] ---
    I-It's sucking away our Magic Power!
[16:58] ---
    If this keeps up, we won't be able
    to hold the Demon King Castle!
[17:09] ---
    Come on, Great Sacred Sword Zele!
[17:24] ---
    Rescue those students right now!
[17:26] ---
    If anything happens,
    the Hero Academy will have to answer for it!
[17:29] ---
    I'm having my familiars
    summon people here.
[17:31] ---
    It's going to take a while, so please wait.
[17:34] ---
    I'll be lodging a strong protest, not only over this,
    but over the re-creation incident, as well!
[17:40] ---
    Don't lose your head.
    There's only so much that a demon can do.
[17:44] ---
    That doesn't mean we can afford to wait!
[17:46] ---
    Not even for five minutes?
[18:05] ---
    You guys!
[18:08] ---
    Revest!
[18:15] ---
    But why? Why won't it...
[18:18] ---
    He has a stigma.
[18:20] ---
    Because he's been severely wounded
    by Holy Magic.
[18:23] ---
    Once that happens,
    Healing Magic's no longer effective.
[18:27] ---
    You let them use such dangerous magic
    in an inter-academy exam?
[18:30] ---
    Well, how was I to know that the Demon King
    Academy students were this spineless?
[18:35] ---
    You only have your own incompetence to blame.
[18:37] ---
    I'll thank you not to shift
    the blame onto me.
[18:42] ---
    Ms. Menou, I'm so sorry.
[18:45] ---
    I'm the one who should be apologizing.
[18:48] ---
    Putting you all in danger
    because of my stupid pride...
[18:52] ---
    That's not—
[18:54] ---
    Revest!
[18:55] ---
    No need to worry.
    I can heal that stigma.
[19:02] ---
    I refuse to be treated by you!
[19:05] ---
    I admire your grit.
[19:07] ---
    But if anything happens to the fledgling
    before it leaves the nest,
[19:10] ---
    the onus would fall on the parent bird.
[19:13] ---
    Are you so weak that you can't submit to something
    unpleasant for your mentor's sake, Revest?
[19:23] ---
    School badge.
[19:25] ---
    That's the magical gear they used to control
    the water that sealed our Magic Power.
[19:29] ---
    So, that's what they used
    to hide the Holy Water, too?
[19:33] ---
    Anos Voldigoad...
[19:35] ---
    I hate you with every bone in my body.
[19:37] ---
    But today, for the first time, I'm thinking...
[19:41] ---
    that if only I had your power...
[19:45] ---
    I'm begging you! Anos, please...
[19:50] ---
    You don't have to say a word.
[19:52] ---
    You've fulfilled your role
    just as you said you would.
[20:00] ---
    Now, leave the rest to me.
[20:04] ---
    Hey there, bro!
[20:05] ---
    I thought we'd move on to Round 2.
[20:08] ---
    I'm sure you haven't rampaged enough yet.
[20:10] ---
    We've been waiting for you.
[20:12] ---
    You certainly took care
    of our third-years, didn't you?
[20:15] ---
    Oh, well, they were all bark and no bite, really.
[20:18] ---
    Not as much as you guys
    with your dependence on Holy Water.
[20:21] ---
    All we did was make the most
    of home field advantage.
[20:24] ---
    That was magical gear.
