[00:07] ---
    Let's go!
[00:09] ---
    Sir Anos' Fight Song, Chorus Number 2!
[00:12] ---
    One, two, three, four!
[00:14] ---
    We have been blessed with the exalted sword
    of our noble Sir Anos...

[00:21] ---
    On this sleeping berth
    named "The Arena," the prey dances...

[00:29] ---
    Secret Move!
[00:29] ---
    You're below me, and I'm on top...
[00:30] ---
    Water Fang Linked Demon Thrust!
[00:32] ---
    S-S-S-Sudden Death...
[00:36] ---
    You're below me, and I'm on top...
[00:40] ---
    E-E-E-E-Easy win...
[00:43] ---
    The exalted sword of our noble Sir Anos
    and the strongest magic meet...

[00:50] ---
    Even a guarded man
    will end up full of holes in one strike...

[00:54] ---
    Full of holes, full of holes,
    full of holes...

[00:55] ---
    That's one minute on the dot.
[00:58] ---
    Demon Sword, destroyed!
[01:00] ---
    Winner...
[01:01] ---
    Anos Voldigoad!
[01:04] ---
    Sir Anos!
[01:06] ---
    How amazing is our little Anos?
[01:08] ---
    Yeah!
[01:09] ---
    Why...
[01:10] ---
    A lowly sword like that... How could I...
[01:13] ---
    There's something other than Magic Power
    in a sword forged so lovingly by a true craftsman.
[01:20] ---
    Don't underestimate my dad's sword.
[01:24] ---
    Did you hear what he just said?
[01:26] ---
    Just who the heck is that guy's father?
[01:29] ---
    Anos!
[01:33] ---
    Brother...
[01:35] ---
    Anos Voldigoad!
SIGN    MOTHER'S WORDS
[03:10] ---
    That was magnificent, Sir Anos!
[03:12] ---
    Come on, it's just the first round.
[03:15] ---
    Round 1, Match Number 2 has been decided!
[03:19] ---
    Winner, Lay Glanzudlii
    of the Lognorth Magic Sword Association!

[03:25] ---
    Lognorth?
[03:26] ---
    But isn't that a Royalist organization?
[03:33] ---
    I'd appreciate it if you kept
    your questions to yourselves.
[03:37] ---
    Well, I don't mind doing that.
[03:40] ---
    Why did you join
    the Lognorth Magic Sword Association?
[03:43] ---
    Did the Royalists make
    some kind of pitch to you?
[03:45] ---
    I'd say they did.
[03:47] ---
    Like, enough money to live off for the rest
    of my life, plus the role of Demon Lord.
[03:52] ---
    I can't believe you'd go
    for something like that!
[03:55] ---
    I'm a Royalist now.
[03:58] ---
    I can't be friends with you guys anymore.
[04:03] ---
    There's something I forgot to tell you, Anos.
[04:06] ---
    I'm going to kill you.
[04:08] ---
    Then, you'll have to come after me,
    resolved to die.
[04:12] ---
    That's not much of a threat.
[04:14] ---
    I've always risked my life for everything.
[04:17] ---
    Oh? Then, why don't I put
    that resolve of yours to the test?
[04:25] ---
    Sir Anos! Lay!
[04:27] ---
    I was looking to slice off
    your head, arms and all.
[04:31] ---
    And I was looking to crush
    your heart between my fingers.
[04:35] ---
    Your body is quite durable, I see.
[04:41] ---
    See you.
[04:42] ---
    Yes, in the finals.
[04:47] ---
    Sir Anos?
[04:49] ---
    He seems to be wearing a collar
    around his neck.
[04:52] ---
    I could sense the presence
    of magical gear inside Lay's body.
[04:55] ---
    Most likely,
    it's a contractual Magic Sword.
[04:57] ---
    And it's probably designed to destroy
    his source under certain conditions.
[05:01] ---
    But that's terrible!
[05:03] ---
    Since he won't appeal to me directly
    for help, he might be a hostage.
[05:08] ---
    He did say his mother was in the hospital.
[05:14] ---
    Winner, Anos Voldigoad!
[05:16] ---
    And he's through to the finals!
[05:17] ---
    That's our...
[05:18] ---
    ...Sir Anos!
[05:20] ---
    Don't tell me he's going to end up
    winning tomorrow's finals, too.
[05:23] ---
    Nope, Lay Glanzudlii's advancing, too.
[05:26] ---
    Hey, right.
    I bet he can take care of him.
[05:29] ---
    Three, two...
[05:31] ---
    Sir Anos, congratulations
    on reaching the finals!
[05:35] ---
    Amazing! You're a genius!
    You were so cool!
[05:39] ---
    Good job, Anos!
[05:40] ---
    You were amazing, too! No one can pour
    their souls into a sword like you!
[05:45] ---
    - Just what you'd expect of a master craftsman!
    - Oh, hey, you think so?
[05:50] ---
    Really?
[05:52] ---
    The fact that it's suffused with love is no lie.
[05:56] ---
    You're so kind.
[05:57] ---
    All right! Gotta get back to work!
[06:00] ---
    I'm coming to cheer you on
    tomorrow, too, okay?
[06:02] ---
    If you're busy, just watch it
    on the magic broadcast.
[06:04] ---
    What are you talking about?
[06:06] ---
    It's your time to shine! See ya!
[06:09] ---
    See you later!
[06:11] ---
    I'll be heading out
    to run an errand myself.
[06:13] ---
    Then, do you want me
    to hold on to that sword for you?
[06:16] ---
    It's pretty heavy.
[06:18] ---
    You have to rest up
    as much as you can for tomorrow.
[06:21] ---
    Besides, it's your precious sword.
[06:24] ---
    True. Under the rules of the tournament,
    you wouldn't be allowed to use another sword.
[06:30] ---
    Mom...
[06:31] ---
    Okay!
[06:35] ---
    H-Hey, I'm fine! I'm fine!
[06:37] ---
    I'm going to defend this sword
    no matter what, all right?
[06:40] ---
    And we'll accompany you!
[06:42] ---
    I'm counting on you, then.
[06:43] ---
    Please leave it to us!
[06:51] ---
    Is this Lay's...
[06:53] ---
    Her body's...
[06:55] ---
    Spirit disease, huh?
[06:57] ---
    Her Magic Power is diminishing,
    and her source is getting sparse.
[07:00] ---
    At this rate,
    it could very well be extinguished.
[07:02] ---
    But, no!
[07:04] ---
    How odd. Though this looks
    like the ravages of old age.
[07:08] ---
    No, wait, she's not a pureblood demon, is she?
[07:11] ---
    Born the child of a demon and a spirit...
[07:14] ---
    A half-spirit half-demon just like you.
[07:17] ---
    But Lay is a Royal.
    Wouldn't his mother be a pureblood demon?
[07:21] ---
    His biological parents must not be
    the parents who raised him. In which case,
[07:25] ---
    we might have to look at this Spirit disease
    as something unique to half-spirit half-demons.
[07:31] ---
    Sir Anos!
[07:36] ---
    Are you Anos?
[07:38] ---
    How do you know me?
[07:40] ---
    I've been conscious all this time.
[07:43] ---
    Lay spoke about you
    right here in this room.
[07:46] ---
    He said he'd made a new friend.
[07:48] ---
    Do you know about the contractual
    Magic Sword embedded inside him?
[07:52] ---
    Yes, I know.
[07:53] ---
    In return for getting treatment for me,
    he's at the beck and call of the Royalists.
[07:58] ---
    If I heal you,
    Lay will no longer be shackled.
[08:01] ---
    Is there anything you know
    about your Spirit disease?
[08:05] ---
    Spirits are made up of one's emotions,
    desires, rumors and traditions.
[08:10] ---
    We're manifestations of such things.
[08:13] ---
    But a half-spirit half-demon's source, tradition,
    is just a weak and newborn rumor.
[08:19] ---
    And that rumor can be easily extinguished,
[08:22] ---
    each time reducing
    more and more of your source.
[08:24] ---
    So, all I have to do
    is pass down that tradition.
[08:27] ---
    What is your tradition?
[08:29] ---
    I don't know.
[08:31] ---
    But I'm feeling just a bit stronger today.
[08:35] ---
    I don't know how long it's been
    since I was last able to talk.
[08:38] ---
    So, that tradition of yours was passed down
    somewhere, easing your symptoms?
[08:43] ---
    But it won't last for long.
[08:45] ---
    There's something I want to tell you
    before it wears off.
[08:48] ---
    Tell me?
[08:50] ---
    Lay has always loved swordplay.
[08:53] ---
    Whenever he had a moment to spare,
    he'd be swinging his sword.
[08:56] ---
    But he always seemed so bored.
[09:01] ---
    Did you win another match?
[09:02] ---
    You have such strong skills,
    don't you, Lay?

[09:06] ---
    Is it such a good thing to be strong?
[09:09] ---
    If only I were weaker...
[09:12] ---
    then, I could've swung this sword
    no-holds-barred, without a care in the world.

[09:17] ---
    Since I collapsed, he's been feeling
    lonelier and lonelier, but...
[09:23] ---
    Mom!
[09:24] ---
    I lost today!
[09:26] ---
    I got totally crushed!
[09:28] ---
    That doesn't make any sense, does it?
[09:30] ---
    To look so thrilled
    while telling me that he'd lost.
[09:34] ---
    He wants to go all out fighting you.
[09:37] ---
    That's what he desires.
[09:39] ---
    Please, Anos.
[09:41] ---
    Please free Lay.
[09:44] ---
    Please don't let that boy
    swing a cowardly sword.
[09:47] ---
    Are you sure?
[09:48] ---
    You'll end up perishing.
[09:50] ---
    I have no desire to live
    if it means standing in my child's way.
[09:54] ---
    But no! That's just too...
[09:57] ---
    Sir Anos, isn't there something you can do?
[09:59] ---
    If I don't know what her tradition is,
    it'll be difficult to heal her completely.
[10:03] ---
    Spirits and demons have different sources.
[10:06] ---
    Even if I were to give her a share of my own life,
    I wouldn't be able to save her, but...
[10:10] ---
    Since I'm a half-spirit half-demon like her...
[10:14] ---
    I'm going to link your sources now.
[10:18] ---
    Misa, you use Spirit Magic
    to consume your own source.
[10:23] ---
    I'll send the rumors and traditions
    generated at that moment into Sheila.
[10:28] ---
    There's a spell for that?
[10:31] ---
    I just created it.
[10:34] ---
    But worst case scenario,
    you'll both get wiped out.
[10:37] ---
    Because if too much of your source
    is depleted, you can't be resurrected.
[10:40] ---
    You mustn't! I can't let you
    do something so dangerous!
[10:44] ---
    I'll do it! Please let me do it!
[10:46] ---
    But...
[10:48] ---
    there was never any need for Lay to get involved in
    the battle between the Unitarians and the Royalists.
[10:53] ---
    And besides...
[10:55] ---
    I believe in Sir Anos, after all.
[11:06] ---
    Misa...
[11:07] ---
    Right.
[11:17] ---
    So far, so good.
[11:19] ---
    Thank goodness.
[11:20] ---
    But it's an inefficient process.
[11:22] ---
    You'll reach your limit before you're done.
[11:24] ---
    But if she can be healed even a little bit...
[11:30] ---
    Is something wrong?
[11:34] ---
    And so you see,
    my Anos built our shop door for us!
[11:39] ---
    A door built by Sir Anos himself?
[11:41] ---
    I want to get stuck in it!
[11:45] ---
    Ms. Izabella?
[11:51] ---
    Ms. Emilia?
[11:58] ---
    What are you doing here?
[12:00] ---
    Well, the rules state
[12:02] ---
    that the steering committee is supposed to hold on
    to the contestants' swords just for the finals.
[12:06] ---
    I don't remember any rules like that.
[12:09] ---
    I'm not sure, either.
[12:11] ---
    So, let me take that now, all right?
[12:14] ---
    No. Since this is something
    that my Anos entrusted to me,
[12:18] ---
    I'll take it to the steering committee myself.
[12:22] ---
    Well, that won't do.
[12:24] ---
    Ms. Emilia?
[12:26] ---
    Just hand it over now, please.
[12:28] ---
    Otherwise, you'll feel the pain!
[12:30] ---
    Please let go!
[12:33] ---
    I see.
[12:35] ---
    Then, you'll have to die
    along with this sword.
[12:39] ---
    Ms. Izabella!
[12:45] ---
    No, you don't!
[13:00] ---
    How could you do such a thing?
[13:01] ---
    Aren't these your beloved students?
[13:04] ---
    Students? Hybrids are just thieves
    eavesdropping on my classes.
[13:08] ---
    Never mind that.
    Kindly hand over that sword.
[13:11] ---
    But why?
[13:12] ---
    After humiliating
    the pureblood Ludowell Family...
[13:16] ---
    how can I ever forgive him?
[13:18] ---
    A mere hybrid like him!
[13:19] ---
    Stealing his sword
    so he can't compete is just wrong!
[13:23] ---
    Not being born into Royalty...
    That's what's so utterly wrong about you all!
[13:33] ---
    Girls!
[13:34] ---
    Ms. Izabella, run, please!
[13:36] ---
    No, we're going together!
[13:38] ---
    We'll be fine!
[13:40] ---
    Because there's eight of us!
[13:47] ---
    Wait for me! I'll go get someone!
[13:53] ---
    It's futile no matter what you do.
    As powerless and foolish you all are.
[13:57] ---
    It is not futile!
[14:00] ---
    We are not foolish!
[14:02] ---
    We have to protect her!
[14:04] ---
    This person so dear to Sir Anos!
[14:06] ---
    We have to protect her!
[14:07] ---
    Shut up!
[14:13] ---
    Girls!
[14:15] ---
    I told you how futile it was.
[14:17] ---
    S-S-S-S...
[14:20] ---
    Sudden Death...
[14:22] ---
    E-E-E...
[14:24] ---
    Easy win...
[14:26] ---
    Would you mind not doing that?
[14:27] ---
    We have been...
[14:29] ---
    blessed with...
[14:31] ---
    ...the exalted sword of our noble Sir Anos...
[14:34] ---
    I just told you to cut that out!
[14:39] ---
    On this sleeping berth named "The Arena"...
[14:41] ---
    Stop it!
[14:44] ---
    ...the prey dances...
[14:46] ---
    You're below me, and I'm on top...
[14:50] ---
    You know full well...
[14:52] ---
    that hybrids are below Royalty!
[14:53] ---
    E-E-E-E-Easy win...
[14:57] ---
    Have you learned your lesson now?
[14:59] ---
    Such is the life of a hybrid.
[15:13] ---
    What a dedicated teacher you are.
[15:16] ---
    Anos, the girls are all...
[15:22] ---
    You can thank your humble origins
    for that! Know your place—
[15:25] ---
    Shut up.
[15:27] ---
    Ent.
[15:36] ---
    Sir... Anos...
[15:39] ---
    Tell me your names.
[15:43] ---
    E-Ellen Miheis.
[15:45] ---
    My name is Jessica Arnest.
[15:48] ---
    I'm Shelia Nijem.
[15:50] ---
    Xia Minsheng.
[15:52] ---
    Ellen. Jessica. Shelia. Xia.
[15:56] ---
    Himka Houra.
[15:58] ---
    I'm Maia Zemt.
[15:59] ---
    C-Carsa Kurnoah.
[16:02] ---
    I'm Nono Inota.
[16:03] ---
    Himka. Maia. Carsa. Nono.
[16:07] ---
    I'll never forget your names as long as I live.
[16:11] ---
    I'm indebted to you.
[16:17] ---
    Mom...
[16:19] ---
    I'm leaving the rest to you.
[16:21] ---
    All right.
[16:23] ---
    Hey, Emilia!
[16:25] ---
    See, I'm a lenient man.
[16:27] ---
    I never thought I'd let myself get so consumed
    in rage that I'd do anything foolish.
[16:32] ---
    Well, well. But how wrong was I about that?
[16:38] ---
    Emilia, I won't let you get away with this!
[16:50] ---
    All right, I've inflicted
    a fatal wound on you.
[16:52] ---
    You'll last maybe
    another minute or so.
[16:55] ---
    Well? If you acknowledge me as
    the Demon King of Tyranny and beg for your life,
[17:00] ---
    I just might change my mind.
[17:03] ---
    As if I'd ever...
    to a lowly good-for-nothing like y-you!
[17:08] ---
    S-Stop—
[17:09] ---
    What was that?
[17:10] ---
    E-Enough... S-Spare me—
[17:13] ---
    Let's hear you say that louder.
[17:17] ---
    D-Demon King of Tyranny,
    Sir Anos Voldigoad!
[17:22] ---
    I beg you to show me mercy!
[17:24] ---
    Don't say it if you don't mean it.
[17:27] ---
    There's only Hell waiting for liars like you.
[17:30] ---
    No...
[17:37] ---
    Azheb.
[17:44] ---
    I...
[17:45] ---
    How does it feel to be reborn?
[17:48] ---
    I-Is this your idea of humiliating me?
    You lowly hybrid!
[17:52] ---
    "Lowly hybrid," huh?
[17:54] ---
    Emilia, do you really still think you're a Royal?
[17:58] ---
    Peer into the abyss with your Demonic Eyes.
[18:01] ---
    Hybrid?
[18:04] ---
    Impossible... No way...
[18:06] ---
    Am I really a hybrid?
[18:08] ---
    No! No!
[18:09] ---
    This isn't me at all!
[18:14] ---
    I placed a curse on you.
    No matter how many times you die...
[18:17] ---
    you'll always come back to life as a hybrid.
[18:23] ---
    No...
[18:25] ---
    Take another look at this country
    from a different perspective.
[18:28] ---
    You might even realize
    how biased your views were before.
[18:34] ---
    No!
[18:35] ---
    No!
[18:47] ---
    What are you doing here?
[18:48] ---
    I-I'm sorry for overstepping.
[18:51] ---
    What's this spell?
[18:52] ---
    Are you sharing your power with her?
[18:55] ---
    Y-Yes. I just couldn't believe
    you'd become a Royalist, Lay.
[19:00] ---
    I'm a liar, you know.
[19:02] ---
    Lay...
[19:04] ---
    If your mother gets healed,
[19:05] ---
    then you won't have to follow
    the Royalists' orders anymore, right?
[19:09] ---
    You're just way beyond trusting, aren't you?
[19:12] ---
    Does Anos know about this?
[19:13] ---
    N-No, he doesn't!
[19:15] ---
    I see.
[19:17] ---
    Don't you think you should take a break?
[19:19] ---
    Aren't you reducing your own source?
[19:22] ---
    It's all right.
[19:23] ---
    You really should think it over.
[19:26] ---
    Don't get caught up in meaningless emotions.
[19:28] ---
    "Meaningless emotions," did you say?
[19:31] ---
    You joined the Unitarians
    so you could save lots of hybrids.
[19:36] ---
    So, the day will come when you'll have to put
    your life on the line for real.
[19:39] ---
    It's already here!
[19:41] ---
    I can't wait for someday!
[19:42] ---
    I want to save even one more person
    from their suffering right now!
[19:46] ---
    If I can't feel that way,
[19:48] ---
    I'll never be able to put my life on the line
    even when that day does come!
[19:52] ---
    You're a strong one, aren't you?
[19:54] ---
    Thanks.
[20:01] ---
    You would've been in danger yourself
    if you'd kept that up.
[20:04] ---
    Sorry I couldn't stop you sooner.
[20:08] ---
    Lay...
[20:10] ---
    Mom?
[20:12] ---
    Lay...
[20:13] ---
    Mom!
[20:14] ---
    Hang on!
[20:16] ---
    I'm going to win, I promise you!
    And when I do...
[20:19] ---
    It's all right.
[20:21] ---
    I know everything.
    You don't have to worry about me.
[20:25] ---
    What are you talking about?
[20:27] ---
    I got to meet you.
    That was enough to make my life happy.
[20:36] ---
    You little good-for-nothing!
    You're no child of ours!

[20:39] ---
    Get out! You're a disgrace!
[20:49] ---
    Mommy will always be on your side.
[20:55] ---
    You should just be yourself
    and live the way you want to.
[21:01] ---
    Mom? Mom!
[21:36] ---
    Thank you for waiting!
[21:38] ---
    The Dilhade Magic Sword Tournament finals...
[21:41] ---
    will now begin!
[21:45] ---
    Have a good time.
[21:46] ---
    Right.
[21:47] ---
    I'll be off now.
[21:52] ---
    Sir Anos!
[21:54] ---
    Good luck!
[21:56] ---
    Now that you've gotten this far,
    you're winning it all!
