[00:04] Shin     I don't recall saying anything     that would clear such suspicions. [00:07] Rionne     Of course you didn't.     I'm going off my instincts. [00:10] Shin     What? [00:11] Rionne     You've shown your colors. [00:12] Shin     I mean, I doubt anyone would     accept that without more concrete proof. [00:19] Rionne     That's not a problem.     I possess the skill "Intuition." [00:22] Rionne     My hunches have never been wrong. [00:26] Shin/Id     Is that how Intuition works? [00:29] Shin/Id     Is the Intuition skill     enhancing her woman's intuition? [00:33] Gadras     Well, the most decisive factor was that [00:35] Gadras     you possess a letter of introduction     from the Moon Sanctum. [00:38] Rionne     Schnee wouldn't grant one     to anyone who'd plot an assassination. [00:43] Rionne     This was more like a final check. [00:46] Shin     I see. So, now we get down to business? [00:50] Rionne     Yes. Allow me to be direct. [00:55] Shin/Id     Is it marriage after all?! [00:58] Rionne     Shin, I want you to fight me! [01:04] Shin     What? [01:06] Gadras     Your Highness, we should discuss     him entering our service first! [01:10] Rionne     What are you talking about?     Confirming his abilities comes first. [01:14] Gadras     Even so, there must be a more      delicate way to go about this. [01:17] Gadras     What kind of princess up and     demands that people fight them? [01:22] Rionne     My sister is the ladylike one. [01:25] Shin/Id     The ladylike one? [01:29] Rionne     Now, then, let us be off. [01:31] Gadras     What? [01:36] Gadras     Y-Your Highness... [01:40] Shin     You must have it rough. [01:41] Gadras     I appreciate your understanding. [03:17] Shin     Where are we teleporting? [03:20] Rionne     Somewhere we can fight     to our hearts' content. [03:35] Shin     What is this place? [03:37] Rionne     They say it was a training ground built     for battles between chosen ones. [03:42] Shin     "They say"? [03:43] Rionne     In truth, we don't know what     other purposes it may have served. [03:47] Rionne     Teleportation points are     pre-Dusk of Prosperity technology. [03:51] Rionne     We still don't fully understand them. [03:54] Shin     I see. [03:56] Shin/Id     I did think it was strange that they     have teleportation points [03:59] Shin/Id     even though teleportation is lost magic. [04:02] Rionne     Now, let us begin. [04:05] Rionne     Choose whichever weapon you'd like. [04:13] Shin     I'll use this. [04:14] Rionne     Then I... [04:18] Rionne     shall go with this. [04:22] Shin/Id     That looks so odd in real life. [04:30] Rionne     This battle is to test your abilities. [04:32] Rionne     I expect you to put in a bit of sweat. [04:35] Shin     Go easy on me. [04:37] Gadras     Now, then... [04:38] Gadras     Begin! [04:50] Shin/Id     She let go of her sword. [04:56] Rionne     I thought I'd be able      to surprise you a little. [05:00] Shin     Oh, I'm plenty surprised. [05:02] Rionne     You say as if you didn't readily dodge me. [05:05] Rionne     The next one won't be so easy. [05:07] Shin/Id     To fight a primarily melee-ranged     chosen one on even terms, [05:10] Shin/Id     I'll adjust my stats like so. [05:13] Shin     Now it's my turn to attack. [05:20] Rionne     You'd challenge me to a contest of strength? [05:23] Shin     I'm actually pretty confident     in my physical strength. [05:30] Rionne     You may use skills as well. No holding back. [05:33] Shin     If you insist. [05:36] Shin     Flashing Vigor! [05:40] Rionne     Flashing Vigor! [05:43] Gadras/Id     They both used the same skill. [05:46] Gadras/Id     There's hardly any difference     in the degree of enhancement. [05:48] Gadras/Id     All that separates them now     is simple difference in ability. [05:56] Shin/Id     She's fast! [06:03] Rionne     Hey, you dodged it. [06:05] Shin/Id     If I hadn't, I think you'd be looking     at a dead man right now. [06:09] Rionne     It appears we're fighters of a similar type. [06:12] Rionne     Our reaction speeds are roughly the same, too. [06:14] Shin     You're right. [06:16] Shin     Settling this match won't be easy. [06:18] Shin     Why don't we stop here? [06:20] Rionne     You think? I'd rather keep      fighting a little longer. [06:24] Shin     Your sword seems to be at its limit. [06:28] Rionne     I knew it couldn't withstand it... [06:30] Gadras     Your skills rival Her Highness's. [06:33] Gadras     On top of that,     your reaction time is impressive. [06:35] Gadras     This was an adequate assessment. [06:38] Rionne     I suppose I shouldn't force you to continue. [06:41] Rionne     Very well. We shall conclude our duel. [06:44] Both/Id     Thank goodness! [06:50] Guard     This room is off-limits. Please turn back. [06:56] Rionne     Shin, would you be interested in joining us? [06:59] Rionne     I'd feel better with you serving our kingdom. [07:03] Shin     My apologies, but I'll have to pass. [07:06] Rionne     You wouldn't be a general,     but I can promise you decent status. [07:11] Shin     With all sorts of strings attached, no? [07:14] Shin     I prefer the free life of an adventurer. [07:17] Rionne     I see. Let me know     if you ever change your mind. [07:21] Shin     Thank you. [07:23] Shin     By the way, why do you     have the Skullface's sword? [07:26] Shin     You didn't use it when you tested me. [07:28] Rionne     Oh, this? [07:30] Rionne     In our kingdom, it's customary for a man [07:32] Rionne     to give a woman a sword     when proposing marriage. [07:36] Rionne     She'd use it to cut him down     if he were unfaithful. [07:39] Shin     Well, that's unsettling. [07:41] Rionne     These days, it's just a formality. [07:43] Rionne     Anyway, I'd like to consider this sword that     crashed into my bedchamber a gift from you. [07:51] Shin     Wouldn't that imply I'd proposed to you? [07:55] Rionne     Yes, I suppose it would. [07:57] Shin     It was only an accident     that the sword went flying... [08:01] Rionne     I know. I won't force the matter. [08:05] Gadras     However, there are those plotting to leverage     this incident to arrest you as a criminal [08:09] Gadras     and have you gradually repay     the kingdom through service. [08:13] Shin     Well, even if it wasn't on purpose,     it easily could have killed someone. [08:18] Rionne     So I suggest we treat it as tribute. [08:21] Shin     I see. We can treat it as tribute     instead of a marriage proposal. [08:25] Shin     That way, you're officially presented     with a powerful weapon. [08:29] Rionne     And you can get the kingdom off your back. [08:32] Gadras     It does sound a bit forced, though. [08:35] Rionne     Naturally, I shall compensate him     for the blade from my own coffers. [08:39] Rionne     I understand that we stand to gain     more from this arrangement, [08:42] Rionne     but please, allow me to keep this sword! [08:46] Shin     Sure. [08:46] Rionne     What? [08:48] Shin     All I want is to keep working     as an adventurer as I have been. [08:53] Shin     Oh, and I don't need any money. [08:55] Shin     Instead, could you allow me access to the      restricted zones of the magical library? [08:59] Rionne     That's all you want? [09:00] Rionne     This sword is worth enough for you to live      as you please for the rest of your days! [09:05] Shin     What I want right now is information. [09:08] Shin     It's just that valuable to me. [09:13] Rionne     I see. [09:14] Shin     So, do we have a deal? [09:17] Rionne     Of course. To tell you the truth,     I've already used it a few times. [09:21] Rionne     It's starting to feel good in my hand. [09:23] Shin/Id     She totally intended to make     the sword hers from the get-go. [09:37] Rionne     Cardinal Greril, what are you doing over there? [09:41] Sign     Charm IV Confusion III [09:41] Sign     Priest Greril Dalles [09:43] Shin     This is bad! He's afflicted     with Charm and Confusion. [09:47] Gadras     Stop! [09:50] Shin/Id     Are we being teleported? [09:52] Shin/Id     But I feel sick... [09:58] Gadras     Your Highness! [10:09] Shin     Seriously? Where are we? [10:13] Shin     Are you all right? [10:17] Rionne     What in the world happened? [10:18] Shin     Seems we've been teleported somewhere. [10:22] Rionne     Somewhere this dilapidated, reachable     from that teleportation point... [10:27] Rionne     We must be in the Holy Land, Calkia. [10:30] Shin     This is the holy land? [10:32] Rionne     Were we the only ones teleported? [10:34] Shin     Looks like it. At the very least,     there's nobody nearby. [10:38] Rionne     For a priest as powerful     as Cardinal Greril to lose his mind... [10:43] Rionne     What's the meaning of this? [10:45] Shin     For now, let's get out of here. [10:47] Rionne     Right. [10:48] Shin     Can you use telepathy? [10:50] Rionne     No. Unfortunately,     I'm not in a party with anyone. [10:53] Shin     Then I'll get in touch with mine. [10:55] Shin     I'd like to tell my companions     where to meet us. [10:58] Shin     Do you know any nearby cities? [11:00] Rionne     There's the walled city of Valmer. [11:03] Rionne     You'd pass through it whether     coming or going from Bayrelicht. [11:07] Shin     Got it. [11:09] Shin     Well, speak of the devil. [11:11] Shin     Hey, Schnee. [11:12] Schnee     Shin! Where are you? [11:15] Schnee     Are you all right?! Please respond! [11:18] Shin     I-I'm okay, so calm down. [11:21] Shin     I'll explain the situation. [11:22] Schnee     B-But... [11:24] Shin     I'll say it again. I'm fine. [11:26] Schnee     V-Very well. I'm sorry. [11:29] Schnee     You disappeared so suddenly,     I thought you'd left again. [11:35] Schnee     So, what happened? [11:38] Shin     Well, actually... [11:42] Schnee     Charm and Confusion? [11:44] Shin     Yeah. It's safe to assume someone     was controlling Cardinal Greril. [11:50] Schnee     Mind-affecting skills are taboo. [11:53] Schnee     Even royals are subject to execution     if caught with them. [11:58] Shin     Then we have someone lurking in the shadows. [12:00] Schnee     Yes, without a doubt. [12:02] Shin     I could just teleport out of here,     but if I use supposedly lost magic, [12:07] Shin     I doubt the princess and her people     will let me go. [12:10] Shin     I hate to ask, but could you     handle things over there? [12:12] Schnee     That's no problem at all. [12:14] Schnee     I'll tell them the princess is safe as well. [12:16] Schnee     Where shall we meet up? [12:18] Shin     Let's meet in Valmer. [12:19] Shin     It's apparently a good place for that. [12:21] Schnee     Understood. [12:23] Shin     Thanks, Schnee. [12:24] Schnee     You can count on me. [12:26] Tiera     Master... [12:28] Schnee     Shin is all right. [12:29] Tiera     I'm so glad! [12:31] Schnee     Also... [12:33] Schnee     I have urgent business. [12:34] Schnee     You'll be coming with me. [12:36] Tiera     Urgent business? [12:39] Schnee     Yes. We're going to the palace. [12:44] Schnee     Shin has gotten caught up     in some kind of trouble. [12:47] Schnee     Apparently one of those is behind it. [12:49] Tiera     One of what? [12:51] Schnee     A demon. [12:52] Tiera     A demon? [12:54] Yuzuha     I don't like those! [12:56] Tiera     They're monsters born from miasma, right? [13:00] Schnee     Yes. They're enemies who make people suffer. [13:04] Schnee     The chief difference between them     and other monsters [13:06] Schnee     is that they're empowered inside miasma. [13:09] Schnee     They can also disguise themselves     as other monsters. [13:14] Schnee     Monsters afflicted with miasma     indiscriminately attack creatures around them. [13:21] Schnee     The more humanoid a demon is,     the more powerful and intelligent. [13:24] Sign     Grand Duke Class     Duke Class     Marquis Class     Count Class     Knight Class     Baron Class     Viscount Class [13:25] Schnee     They are ranked accordingly. [13:28] Schnee     Because this one used skills to control a man, [13:31] Schnee     it's likely a relatively intelligent     demon of the count class. [13:36] Tiera     And what level would that make it? [13:38] Schnee     Let's see... 300 at the lowest,     400 at the highest. [13:44] Tiera     And it's still only a mid-rank class, huh? [13:48] Tiera     M-Master, I'm still not even half     the lowest level it could be... [13:53] Schnee     That won't be a problem. [13:55] Schnee     We're just going to observe today. [13:57] Tiera     We're... observing? [14:07] Schnee     Around here should do. [14:09] Schnee     Hiding. [14:13] Tiera     A concealment spell? [14:15] Tiera     Don't tell me we're going to sneak in! [14:18] Schnee     That's exactly what we're doing. [14:19] Tiera     What? [14:20] Schnee     We're going to take a brief flight.     Hold on tight. [14:23] Tiera     What? [14:24] Tiera     What?! [14:33] Schnee     Now, let's sneak into the castle. [14:36] Tiera/Id     Come to think of it,     Master is pretty extreme... [14:45] Tiera/Id     I know we're using Hiding,     but we're walking in so brazenly. [14:49] Tiera     Master, where are we headed? [14:52] Schnee     To the dungeon. [14:54] Tiera     Th-The dungeon? [14:59] Schnee     The demon has already been captured. [15:01] Tiera     What? [15:06] Schnee     Sleep. [15:15] Tiera     You're incredible, Master. [15:25] Greril     Who's there? [15:27] Schnee     It's good to see you again, Cardinal Greril. [15:30] Greril     Lady Raizar? [15:32] Greril     What are you doing here? [15:33] Schnee     I heard you had Charm     and Confusion cast on you. [15:36] Greril     You know about that? [15:39] Greril     I remember nothing of them being cast on me. [15:44] Greril     No matter how hard I try to recall,     all I can conjure are fragments of memories. [15:50] Schnee     Probably an effect of having     two mind-affecting conditions. [15:53] Schnee     Don't worry. The two individuals     who were teleported are safe. [15:57] Greril     What? Can that truly be? [16:00] Schnee     Yes, I'm certain. It won't be long     before they return. [16:05] Greril     Please accept my deepest gratitude. [16:08] Schnee     Now that there's nothing to worry about, [16:12] Schnee     why don't we dispel the status effects on you? [16:15] Greril     Please do. [16:17] Schnee     Here we go. [16:26] Schnee     You've finally revealed yourself. [16:28] Tiera     Th-This... [16:32] Tiera     is the demon? [16:34] Sign     Count-class Demon [16:34] Sign     Magnumuk [16:36] Schnee     You have a name? [16:38] Schnee     I see. No wonder you're intelligent. [16:42] Magnumuk     A silver-haired, blue-eyed high elf... [16:46] Magnumuk     You're Schnee Raizar. [16:48] Schnee     It's been five hundred years     since I've encountered one of you. [16:52] Schnee     I haven't seen a demon since the cataclysm, [16:54] Schnee     but you're as unsightly as ever. [16:57] Magnumuk     How vexing. You're always getting in our way! [17:02] Schnee     Of course we are. [17:12] Magnumuk     You're mine! [17:24] Schnee     A trifle. [17:26] Magnumuk     Why do you protect the human? [17:30] Schnee     Because it'd be a shame to let him die     over these false charges. [17:34] Schnee     Besides, allowing you to run amok     would disgrace the Moon Sanctum. [17:38] Magnumuk     The Moon Sanctum... [17:41] Magnumuk     That's where the high human used to be. [17:43] Magnumuk     The likes of him defeated many of my kind. [17:47] Magnumuk     But that's all in the past now. [17:50] Schnee     You think so? [17:51] Magnumuk     Many warriors forsook this world and left. [17:55] Magnumuk     The people are still divided,     and corruption is spreading. [17:59] Magnumuk     The age of man is ending. [18:02] Magnumuk     Schnee Raizar, join us. [18:06] Schnee     I was wondering what your angle was. [18:09] Schnee     That will never happen. [18:10] Magnumuk     Why are you so determined to scorn us? [18:14] Magnumuk     You were abandoned by your master. [18:17] Schnee     What? [18:19] Schnee     What did you just say? [18:22] Magnumuk     Your master left you behind. [18:25] Magnumuk     Much time has elapsed     in the high humans' absence. [18:29] Magnumuk     They will never return. [18:31] Magnumuk     Do you not resent those who abandoned you? [18:35] Magnumuk     Do those who now depend     on your power not irritate you? [18:40] Schnee     Ah, so you don't know after all. [18:44] Magnumuk     What are you talking about? [18:46] Schnee     I probably would have been angry before. [18:50] Schnee     Perhaps I fought based on my emotions. [18:55] Schnee     But you chose the most unfortunate timing. [19:02] Magnumuk     That's Blue Moon! Could it be... [19:09] Magnumuk/Id     The high humans have returned? [19:17] Schnee     I doubt I'd even lose     to an Elementail right now. [19:21] Guard A     Wow! So that's the famed... [19:24] Guard B     She's beautiful. [19:26] Official A     But what is she doing in the castle? [19:29] Tiera/Id     Everyone's staring at my master! [19:45] Schnee     Excuse me. [19:47] Jayon     Lady Raizar? What are you doing here? [19:50] Schnee     Your Majesty, I came to speak with you. [19:54] Efilia     I thought Cardinal Greril     had been thrown into the dungeon. [19:58] Schnee     Yes. I have something to report regarding that. [20:04] Jayon     A demon? [20:05] Jayon     So the enemies of humanity     written about in history books are active... [20:10] Gadras     And using taboo mind-affecting skills, too? [20:14] Gadras     That's a serious problem. [20:15] Efilia     I hope my magic can be used to resist them. [20:19] Schnee     I have good news as well. [20:22] Schnee     The two who were teleported are safe. [20:25] Jayon     Is that true? [20:27] Efilia     What a relief. [20:29] Gadras     I had faith that Her Highness     and Shin wouldn't go down so easily! [20:33] Gadras     This is great news indeed! [20:36] Greril     I'm terribly sorry for the trouble I caused. [20:40] Jayon     If you were under the effects     of compulsion, it is not your fault. [20:44] Jayon     I hope you'll continue to act     as our liaison with the church. [20:50] Greril     Certainly, sire! I vow to work     even harder from now on. [20:54] Schnee     Your Majesty, word of disarray in the castle     would unnerve the general populace. [20:59] Schnee     Information control is your top priority. [21:01] Jayon     Very well. What will you do now, Lady Raizar? [21:07] Schnee     There's somewhere I must go. [21:09] Schnee     Excuse me. [21:14] Tiera     E-Excuse us! [21:20] Tiera     Master, what are we going to do now? [21:23] Schnee     We're heading to the walled city of Valmer. [21:25] Schnee     We'll meet Shin there. [21:27] Tiera     But Shin has our wagon. Will we get a new one? [21:33] Schnee     That won't be necessary. We'll run there. [21:36] Tiera     Run? [21:51] Schnee     I'm going to increase my speed. Try to keep up. [21:54] Tiera     W-Wait, Master— [21:58] Tiera     Master, you're too fast!
