[00:03] ---
    W-We transported...
[00:05] ---
    Along with Lord Anos!
[00:07] ---
    Wait a second,
    you think this was an indirect transfer?
[00:10] ---
    What is it,
    like an indirect kiss?
[00:13] ---
    If we got transferred by linking spaces...
[00:16] ---
    Then it's the same
    as if we all got linked to Lord Anos!
[00:20] ---
    Oh!
[00:21] ---
    And since it was our first time ever...
[00:26] ---
    First indirect transfer!
[00:28] ---
    Settle down, my students.
[00:31] ---
    A god's word is absolute.
[00:33] ---
    Whoops, uh-oh...
[00:34] ---
    He called us out...
[00:35] ---
    Starting today, we'll be administering
    an Aharthern Expedition Exam.
[00:40] ---
    That forest is a Spirit.
[00:42] ---
    The way to it depends on
    the rumors of the time.
[00:46] ---
    You will search for those rumors,
    and reach the forest within ten days.
[00:52] ---
    That will be your task for this expedition exam.
[00:56] ---
    When the Lishas Meadows surrounding Zehenburg
    are covered in a mysterious fog,
[00:58] ---
    you'll find mischievous spirits lurking there.
[01:01] ---
    Make them smile,
    and they'll show you the way.
[01:05] ---
    This rumor is your clue.
[01:07] ---
    Now, then, offer the gods your gratitude
    and highest praise,
[01:11] ---
    and let the exam begin!
[01:14] ---
    I know it's an order, but still...
[01:16] ---
    I just can't figure these Gods out.
[02:50] ---
    03 - THE SPIRIT'S SCHOOL BUILDING
[02:51] ---
    Well, we split up into four groups,
    but since we're with you, Anos...
[02:55] ---
    Does that mean it's possible that one
    of us is the Child of God?
[02:58] ---
    The odds are about the same.
[03:00] ---
    Misha did create a pseudo-god,
    but she is a descendant of mine.
[03:05] ---
    Who do you think you are, little girl?
[03:07] ---
    Ugh!
[03:09] ---
    You may be an information broker or whatever,
[03:12] ---
    but you better stop spreading vile reviews
    of my shop!
[03:14] ---
    You only have yourself to blame!
[03:16] ---
    Running your business like a scam,
    and ripping off travelers the way you do!
[03:19] ---
    Who's running the scam here?
[03:21] ---
    I've heard how you're always talking up
    a storm about a forest that doesn't exist!
[03:26] ---
    Aharthern does too exist!
    You just don't believe it!
[03:29] ---
    Tch!
[03:30] ---
    Hey, give this one a beatdown!
[03:36] ---
    I'd stop right there if I were you.
[03:38] ---
    Who the hell are you?
[03:39] ---
    Butt out, stranger!
[03:41] ---
    Sorry, but I need to speak with this woman.
[03:43] ---
    What a pain in the butt!
    Go on, school him about local customs!
[03:51] ---
    Forgive me, I couldn't help blasting
    you away with my laugh.
[03:56] ---
    If safety is important to you,
    I wouldn't say anything too funny.
[04:01] ---
    Thanks. I owe you one!
[04:04] ---
    That's all right.
    I wanted to ask you something.
[04:07] ---
    Do you know the way to Aharthern?
[04:10] ---
    Then you believe it exists?
[04:12] ---
    I've been there before.
[04:13] ---
    Huh?
[04:14] ---
    But to enter that forest,
    one needs to know about its rumors.
[04:19] ---
    If you agree to tell me what they are,
    I'll give you whatever you want.
[04:23] ---
    Then will you bring me along?
[04:26] ---
    That would be fine.
    But what do you want to do there?
[04:31] ---
    I don't know.
[04:33] ---
    I know this may sound strange...
[04:36] ---
    But I've lost my memory, see.
[04:39] ---
    Hmm.
[04:40] ---
    When I came to,
    I was here in this town.
[04:43] ---
    And I know there was something
    that I needed to do...
[04:47] ---
    But when I heard the rumor about Aharthern,
    I knew that I had to go there.
[04:54] ---
    I feel like I've forgotten something
    that I shouldn't have.
[04:58] ---
    I'm sure I'll find a clue in Aharthern!
[05:02] ---
    She doesn't seem to be a Demon.
[05:04] ---
    What are you going to do?
[05:05] ---
    Fine. I'll take you with me.
[05:08] ---
    Really? Thanks!
[05:11] ---
    I'm an information broker,
    and I've gathered all kinds of rumors about Aharthern.
[05:16] ---
    Was there a rumor about a mysterious fog?
[05:18] ---
    Yes.
[05:19] ---
    The fog covers
    the meadows during an eclipse.
[05:22] ---
    An eclipse?
    But those hardly ever happen, do they?
[05:26] ---
    No, there'll be one nine days from now.
[05:28] ---
    What?
[05:29] ---
    About three minutes past noon.
[05:31] ---
    Three minutes...
[05:32] ---
    Not a lot of time to make the spirits smile.
[05:36] ---
    Misha.
[05:37] ---
    Let Lay and the others know.
[05:39] ---
    Let's go.
[05:40] ---
    Go? What about the eclipse?
[05:43] ---
    Not a problem.
[05:45] ---
    Ih Guneas.
[05:57] ---
    Even moving a star isn't beyond me.
[06:02] ---
    Oh! The fog is rising!
[06:05] ---
    Aharthern must be beyond that!
[06:08] ---
    Anos' magic doesn't seem to surprise you.
[06:10] ---
    What?
[06:11] ---
    I guess not.
[06:13] ---
    But somehow it feels familiar.
[06:16] ---
    Do you remember your own name?
[06:19] ---
    It's Lena. I think...
[06:22] ---
    All right, Lena. Do you know any rumors about
    the spirits luring in that fog?
[06:26] ---
    The Spirits, Tithi.
    Since they love anything new,
[06:31] ---
    you can probably get them to smile
    if you show them something cutting-edge.
[06:34] ---
    Cutting-edge might be easier said than done.
[06:37] ---
    I have a plan.
[06:38] ---
    What kind?
[06:39] ---
    I'll say something funny.
[06:42] ---
    And then you'll correct me, Sasha.
[06:43] ---
    And then?
[06:44] ---
    They'll burst out laughing.
[06:46] ---
    I've never heard
    of such a half-baked plan!
[06:48] ---
    You don't like it?
[06:49] ---
    Of course not.
[06:51] ---
    Everybody!
[06:53] ---
    There was an eclipse all of a sudden,
    and it gave us a start!
[06:57] ---
    If there's fog already,
    does that mean we can get to Aharthern now?
[07:01] ---
    We've only just begun.
    All of you, use your hidden abilities.
[07:12] ---
    Tithi, here's the question!
[07:14] ---
    What are my favorite numbers?
[07:17] ---
    Zero and three, I think?
[07:20] ---
    Lay...
[07:22] ---
    Who said to start mooning over each other?
[07:25] ---
    Now then, Zeshia.
[07:27] ---
    Let's see your Sasha impression!
[07:29] ---
    Lord Demon King... I love you.
[07:32] ---
    That's ridiculous!
[07:33] ---
    And now your Misha impression!
[07:35] ---
    Misha's gonna do her best.
[07:38] ---
    Who's that?
[07:41] ---
    I don't sound like her?
[07:43] ---
    I mean, why are you teaching Zeshia
    to mimic people anyway?
[07:47] ---
    Hmm.
[07:49] ---
    Lord Anos!
[07:51] ---
    We're so sorry!
[07:53] ---
    For being late!
[07:56] ---
    Where did you get those?
[07:57] ---
    Oh, we bought them
    in that town just now.
[08:01] ---
    S-See, they had such a lucky name,
    we couldn't help ourselves.
[08:05] ---
    Oh? What would that name be?
[08:09] ---
    It's... the Club of Anossu, see.
[08:15] ---
    How can you utter the name "Club of Anossu"
    in front of Lord Anos, Ellen?
[08:20] ---
    You need to be more careful.
[08:21] ---
    R-Right.
[08:26] ---
    It's the real thing!
[08:30] ---
    The real thing!
    The real thing!
[08:34] ---
    Real thing?
[08:38] ---
    The Club of Anossu.
[08:41] ---
    Lord Anos's...
[08:42] ---
    ...Club of Anossu.
[08:45] ---
    What interesting children!
[08:47] ---
    What fun children!
[08:49] ---
    Long time no see, Tithi.
[08:51] ---
    Huh?
[08:52] ---
    What's this?
[08:54] ---
    I know this person!
[08:55] ---
    It's the Demon King of Tyranny.
[08:57] ---
    I'd like to go to Aharthern.
    Will you show me the way?
[09:00] ---
    Sure!
[09:01] ---
    Sure! Come on!
[09:02] ---
    To the Great Spirit Forest!
[09:07] ---
    You might as well see it up close.
[09:09] ---
    That way, I can keep an eye on you better.
[09:13] ---
    No need to be so wary.
    I'm only going to lead the class.
[09:16] ---
    Since it's an order.
[09:21] ---
    We're here!
    The Great Spirit Forest!
[09:24] ---
    So this is Aharthern.
[09:29] ---
    Tithi. There should be a Demon here
    named Shin Reglia. Do you know him?
[09:34] ---
    Shin Reglia?
[09:35] ---
    Don't know him!
[09:37] ---
    Don't know him, do we?
[09:38] ---
    There are subordinates of the Demon King.
[09:40] ---
    Demons from 2,000 years ago.
[09:43] ---
    They're in the Spirit's School Building.
[09:47] ---
    Anos, Spirit?
[09:48] ---
    Apparently so.
[09:50] ---
    A Spirit based on a rumor about memories...
[09:53] ---
    That's what it might mean.
[09:55] ---
    - Hey!
    - Huh?
[09:58] ---
    This girl looks like Leno!
[10:01] ---
    She really does!
[10:02] ---
    Great Spirit Leno!
[10:04] ---
    Huh?
[10:05] ---
    The mother of all Spirits.
[10:07] ---
    But Leno is...
[10:09] ---
    She passed away.
[10:12] ---
    When was it?
[10:13] ---
    Hmm, when was it?
[10:14] ---
    A few years ago?
[10:15] ---
    Maybe 2,000 years ago?
[10:17] ---
    I forget!
[10:22] ---
    Because she is the child borne by
    the Great Spirit Leno.

[10:30] ---
    What? What?
[10:32] ---
    But she smells like her.
[10:35] ---
    Leno's smell.
[10:36] ---
    Uh... I was told that I'm
    the Great Spirit Leno's child by birth.
[10:40] ---
    Child by birth?
    The child in her tummy?
[10:43] ---
    What's your name?
[10:44] ---
    Misa.
[10:46] ---
    You're Misa?
[10:47] ---
    Hmm.
[10:49] ---
    Um! Then do you know who the father is?
[10:53] ---
    Of Leno's child?
[10:57] ---
    That's a secret!
[10:59] ---
    We're not allowed to tell!
[11:01] ---
    The Spirit King said so!
[11:04] ---
    Spirit King?
[11:06] ---
    He didn't exist 2,000 years ago.
[11:13] ---
    Wow, it's gigantic!
[11:15] ---
    What a shock.
[11:18] ---
    Here he is!
[11:20] ---
    Some Demons are here.
[11:22] ---
    Always here.
[11:24] ---
    A classroom?
[11:25] ---
    But nobody's here.
[11:27] ---
    What?
[11:28] ---
    What's this?
[11:29] ---
    They've been spirited away!
[11:31] ---
    Well, well.
[11:33] ---
    Who would've thought I'd see you here?
[11:36] ---
    You haven't changed.
    After going after my subordinates...
[11:39] ---
    ...you have some nerve,
    Scarlet Monument King Gilysiris.
[11:44] ---
    Scarlet Monument King!
[11:45] ---
    Ah, ah. You mean Zabro?
[11:48] ---
    Even I didn't intend for that to happen, you know.
[11:52] ---
    But there's so much pressure from above.
[11:55] ---
    I never thought you'd serve another Demon.
[11:58] ---
    It's been 2,000 years. You shouldn't judge things
    by outdated, shallow criteria.
[12:06] ---
    I have surpassed you by far.
[12:10] ---
    I wonder if any of the other Four Evil Royals
    are around, too?
[12:13] ---
    The bad kids?
[12:14] ---
    They'll be here soon!
[12:16] ---
    The one with the horns,
    and the one with the eye patch!
[12:24] ---
    Unless the necessary sacrifices are made,
[12:27] ---
    there will only be more additional sacrifices.
[12:29] ---
    King of the Netherworld.
[12:30] ---
    When did you ally yourself with
    the Scarlet Monument King and the King of Curses?
[12:34] ---
    If that's how it looks to you,
    it's the Spirits' handiwork.
[12:40] ---
    School bell?
    Enyunien?
[12:47] ---
    What's going on here?
[12:48] ---
    Are we trapped in here?
[12:50] ---
    My name is Enyunien.
[12:57] ---
    This is the Spirit's School Building.
[13:04] ---
    Why's everyone just sitting here quietly?
[13:07] ---
    Hmm... we might all be trapped inside this place.
[13:12] ---
    Let me explain to the new students.
[13:14] ---
    In this building, we teach about various Spirits,
    and their histories.
[13:20] ---
    To enter means that you've matriculated,
[13:23] ---
    and you cannot leave until you've graduated.
[13:26] ---
    As the so-called Great Tree Spirit of Education,
    I'll be teaching this class.
[13:30] ---
    Those who fail will be spirited away,
    thanks to the Hidden Wolf Gennul.
[13:35] ---
    Also, we have a zero-tolerance policy
    regarding violence here.
[13:39] ---
    Anyone who defies this policy will be forced
    to traverse the back of the long serpent Ibiteoh.
[13:44] ---
    What do we have to do in order to graduate?
[13:46] ---
    You must pass my trials.
[13:49] ---
    Those who take three tests,
    and get an average score of more than 80,
[13:53] ---
    are eligible to undergo the Spirit's Trial.
[13:55] ---
    Pass that, and you will be granted
    an audience with the Spirit King.
[14:01] ---
    And those who succeed can then graduate.
[14:05] ---
    And those who've been spirited away?
[14:07] ---
    If you plead your case to the Spirit King,
    I believe he'll return them to you.
[14:11] ---
    In other words, our only option
    is to go through these trials.
[14:14] ---
    I understand how it works now.
[14:16] ---
    But let us take one single test.
[14:18] ---
    What's that now?
[14:20] ---
    We can just take the three tests in one go.
[14:22] ---
    Hmm. Right,
    but my tests are difficult, you know.
[14:27] ---
    It's fine.
[14:30] ---
    Very well. However...
[14:33] ---
    To pass,
    you must score at least 90.
[14:39] ---
    Quite a bold thing to do.
[14:42] ---
    The tests will be held a week from now.
[14:44] ---
    Don't think that they'll be easy.
[14:47] ---
    Then why don't we bet on it,
    Scarlet Monument King?
[14:49] ---
    Bet, did you say?
[14:50] ---
    We will all pass these tests.
[14:53] ---
    Not just you, you mean?
[14:56] ---
    Yes.
[14:57] ---
    If I win, then you'll have to tell me about
    the "one above" from whom you received your orders.
[15:03] ---
    Then if I win,
    I shall claim your Source.
[15:07] ---
    It's settled, then.
[15:08] ---
    You'll soon regret this.
    Zecht.
[15:11] ---
    Zecht.
[15:17] ---
    Do we have a chance of winning?
[15:18] ---
    These are Spirit tests we're talking about, right?
[15:21] ---
    I think they'll be hard.
[15:23] ---
    You can start learning now.
[15:25] ---
    And there's someone here who's well-informed.
[15:27] ---
    What? Me?
[15:28] ---
    Lena. Do you know that you're a Spirit?
[15:33] ---
    Yes.
[15:35] ---
    I got a vague sense of that when we got here...
    and now I'm certain.
[15:39] ---
    You spoke his name before Enyunien even arrived.
[15:42] ---
    I don't believe that that was due to hearsay.
[15:47] ---
    Well, I remembered that all of a sudden.
[15:49] ---
    It seemed like I knew about
    the Spirit's School building... and Gennul, too.
[15:55] ---
    Hmm.
[15:56] ---
    If you can find the trigger,
    you may find a way to restore your memories.
[16:01] ---
    Empty out your mind.
[16:03] ---
    Okay.
[16:09] ---
    Well?
[16:11] ---
    I remember now... I think.
[16:15] ---
    A lot of things about the Spirits.
[16:18] ---
    I... have to see the Spirit King.
[16:21] ---
    Why is that?
[16:23] ---
    I can't remember.
[16:24] ---
    That's all I know about myself.
[16:27] ---
    Are there things that people can't remember,
    even under your spells, Lord Anos?
[16:31] ---
    Well, this might not be just your ordinary amnesia.
[16:34] ---
    But there are other ways
    of recovering those memories.
[16:38] ---
    Thank you!
[16:40] ---
    You really are amazing, after all, Anos.
[16:42] ---
    What do you mean, after all?
[16:43] ---
    Huh? Um... I don't know,
    that's just how it feels.
[16:48] ---
    I might have met you before, maybe?
[16:52] ---
    Is that right?
[16:54] ---
    All right, let's start
    with a study group for the test, everyone.
[16:57] ---
    Yeah, but we don't even know what
    the range of the test will be.
[17:00] ---
    Don't worry, I know!
[17:03] ---
    This is the Forest of Books!
[17:05] ---
    The green books are all about the Spirits,
[17:08] ---
    and the test questions will come from here.
[17:10] ---
    Wow! That's a boatload of books!
[17:13] ---
    Reading... isn't my strong point.
[17:25] ---
    Hmm...
[17:27] ---
    Huh? You're done reading already?
[17:28] ---
    I only got through half.
[17:30] ---
    Huh?
[17:31] ---
    If you can't pull this off overnight,
    you won't escape death.
[17:35] ---
    That was 2,000 years ago, though, right?
[17:38] ---
    Leave the studying methods to me.
[17:40] ---
    I'll turn you all into fine Spirit Scholars.
[18:02] ---
    I can't find anything that would tell us
    about you in these books.
[18:06] ---
    I see.
[18:07] ---
    But there is just one page that caught my eye.
[18:11] ---
    Love Fairy Fran?
[18:13] ---
    The Spirit who gives shape
    to unrequited love,
[18:16] ---
    and brings people together...
[18:18] ---
    The page has been ripped out.
[18:20] ---
    Right.
[18:21] ---
    Rivide.
[18:25] ---
    Seems to have been torn out quite
    a long time ago.
[18:31] ---
    The test questions can be found
    in the Book Fairy Leelan.
[18:35] ---
    The time limit is one hour.
[18:40] ---
    Begin!
[18:43] ---
    Although definitely a Spirit,
[18:45] ---
    which Spirit isn't based on any rumors?
[18:49] ---
    The answer is Hexapod Fairy Jijayk.
[18:54] ---
    Love is memory. Memory is love...
[18:57] ---
    The spirit who wanders about seeking love...
[19:00] ---
    Nothing about this Spirit has been recorded
    in the Forest of Books.

[19:04] ---
    So the answer's on that page?
[19:06] ---
    Love Fairy Fran.
[19:11] ---
    Strange. It should be easy
    to answer questions of this level.

[19:17] ---
    Meaning that those are the wrong questions?
[19:20] ---
    Would you like to check yourself, Demon King?
[19:22] ---
    If you can get past the Demonic Eyes
    of Enyunien, who can see all foul play,

[19:26] ---
    and look at the answers written
    by your subordinates.

[19:29] ---
    Although those Demonic Eyes have
    been bolstered by this stone monument.

[19:35] ---
    Hmm.
[19:36] ---
    Your defeat has already been determined.
[19:40] ---
    I see... So you've tampered with the questions.
[19:43] ---
    Show me some proof.
[19:45] ---
    But if you look at anyone else's answers,
    you'll be cheating.

[19:49] ---
    That would depend on the time and place.
[19:53] ---
    Although definitely a Spirit,
[19:55] ---
    which Spirit isn't based on any rumors?
[19:57] ---
    Well, that's too bad.
    The questions are the same.

[20:02] ---
    Enyunien! I caught this one cheating!
[20:05] ---
    You must fail him on the spot!
[20:07] ---
    That, I cannot do.
[20:09] ---
    What are you talking about?
[20:10] ---
    Do you cheat after the test is over?
[20:14] ---
    Huh?
[20:15] ---
    I've already received Anos's answers.
[20:19] ---
    What?
[20:20] ---
    I never even saw him writing.
[20:22] ---
    You didn't see me?
[20:24] ---
    Oh, but Anos. Make sure you don't disturb
    the other students.
[20:28] ---
    Right.
[20:41] ---
    I wanted to save this for later, but...
[20:57] ---
    Mmm... Now then,
    shall I announce the results?
[21:02] ---
    Eges Code, 85
[21:05] ---
    Kyhilam Jiste, 81.
[21:08] ---
    Gilysiris Dello, 80.
[21:11] ---
    Next, the new students.
    Zeshia Bianca...
[21:15] ---
    150 points out of a perfect score of 100!
[21:19] ---
    Impossible!
[21:20] ---
    And as for the other new students,
    everyone got a perfect score of 100!
[21:27] ---
    Now this can't possibly be right.
[21:29] ---
    There must've been some kind of foul play.
[21:32] ---
    I had my eyes peeled.
    There was absolutely no foul play here.
[21:36] ---
    Would you mind showing me the answers?
[21:39] ---
    Fine.
[21:43] ---
    Question 27,
    the correct answer is Corpse of Lava...
[21:47] ---
    But "Daytoylich" has been entered here.
[21:50] ---
    The scoring must be off, no?
[21:52] ---
    Hmm. But I felt that it could also
    be interpreted that way.
[21:56] ---
    What?
[21:58] ---
    This one, too! Question 15,
    the number of Spirits related to fishing.
[22:02] ---
    The answer is 17!
[22:03] ---
    Depending on how you count them,
    I thought that 21 could be possible, too.
[22:10] ---
    Then what about this?
[22:11] ---
    It says, "I don't know"!
[22:13] ---
    No matter how you look at it,
[22:14] ---
    it can't be right!
[22:16] ---
    To admit honestly that one doesn't know—
[22:19] ---
    not everyone can do such a thing.
[22:22] ---
    What—no way—this is...
[22:25] ---
    Did you think that just because
    the answers were wrong,
[22:27] ---
    we couldn't get a perfect score?
[22:33] ---
    Before the Magic Sword of Destruction,
[22:35] ---
    even a blank page becomes a score of 100.
[22:38] ---
    What a dirty trick.
[22:40] ---
    Now, then, who's the dirty one here?
[22:44] ---
    Rivide.
[22:46] ---
    The questions were rewritten,
    only during the actual test.
[22:50] ---
    You must've spoken directly to the Book Spirits,
[22:53] ---
    and gone behind both mine and Enyunien's backs.
[22:58] ---
    To honor our contract,
    you will now answer.
[23:00] ---
    Is your "superior" the Spirit King?
[23:04] ---
    That would be correct.
[23:06] ---
    Did you use his power to engage in foul play?
[23:11] ---
    You have no proof that it was I.
[23:14] ---
    Mm... that's true.
    As they say, innocent until proven guilty.
[23:20] ---
    I'm going to grant everyone
    the right to undergo the trial.
[23:25] ---
    You've all passed!
SIGN    THE SPIRIT'S TRIAL
[23:36] ---
    The Spirit's Trial.
