[00:03] Schnee
    Wide Heal.
[00:09] Berg
    Thank you for saving us, Lady Schnee.
[00:12] Berg
    We were just thinking
    we'd be forced to retreat.
[00:16] Schnee
    Please.
[00:17] Schnee
    I was only able to defeat it
    because you and your men fought.
[00:23] Berg
    You honor us with such praise.
[00:26] Berg
    For the past month,
[00:28] Berg
    undead that shouldn't be able to leave the
    Ghost Plains have been showing up.
[00:33] Berg
    We've dispatched elite units
    to take care of them.
[00:36] Berg
    I can't believe she took down a monster alone
    that we've failed to defeat in groups.
[00:42] Berg
    I should have expected as much from someone
    who once earned a high human's favor.
[00:47] Schnee
    That was the last of the irregular monsters
    mentioned in your report, correct?
[00:52] Berg
    Yes. I hope that's the end of things.
[00:55] Schnee
    I'll continue searching the area.
[00:58] Schnee
    If anything happens,
    launch that magic item I gave you.
[01:02] Berg
    Will do.
[01:03] Schnee
    Farewell.
[01:10] (Flashback) Schnee
    Master!
[01:13] Schnee
    I finally get to see him again.
[02:53] Lacia
    Wil!
[03:05] Wilhelm
    Don't just stand there. Finish it off.
[03:08] Lacia
    R-Right!
[03:12] Lacia
    Heal.
[03:19] Lacia
    Wh-What's happening?
[03:20] Wilhelm
    Lacia!
[03:21] Shin
    Don't worry.
[03:22] Shin
    This effect occurs when you meet
    the conditions to learn a new skill.
[03:29] Wilhelm
    Hey, Lacia!
[03:30] Lacia
    Huh?
[03:31] Wilhelm
    You look lost in thought. Are you okay?
[03:35] Lacia
    I-I'm fine.
[03:37] Lacia
    My mind was suddenly flooded with
    images of how to use the skill.
[03:41] Shin
    Well, in any event,
     you've successfully learned Purify.
[03:45] Shin
    Congratulations.
[03:47] Wilhelm
    Nice work.
[03:49] Lacia
    Thank you.
[03:51] Lacia
    Now we'll be able to save the orphanage.
[03:54] Shin
    After a short break, let's leave
    the sealed area and return to Bayrelicht.
[03:57] Wilhilm
    Yeah. No reason to stick around.
[04:02] Shin
    What was that sound?
[04:05] Shin
    What is that?
[04:09] Wilhilm
    Hey, what are... you...
[04:14] Wilhilm
    The hell's going on?
[04:20] Lacia
    It's pretty...
[04:21] Wilhelm
    That's the magic matter
     that animates undead.
[04:24] Shin
    Magic matter?
[04:25] Wilhelm
    Yeah. Drain it from monsters until they
     can't maintain their form, and they vanish.
[04:48] Sign
    Skullface Lord
[04:48] Sign
    Monster
[04:49] Shin
    Level 804?
[04:51] Wilhelm
    What an unbelievable monster.
[04:54] Lacia
    Oh, no...
[04:55] Lacia
    A creature of that level could
    destroy an entire nation.
[05:00] Lacia
    We have the seal. W-We'll be okay, right?
[05:03] Shin
    Yeah, I don't know about that.
[05:21] Shin
    So much for the seal, right?
[05:24] Wilhelm
    Yeah. That blow would've shattered it.
[05:30] Lacia
    This can't be...
[05:38] Wilhelm
    Hey, it's looking our way.
[05:40] Shin
    Yup.
[05:42] Wilhelm
    Run for it!
[05:48] Wilhelm
    Not gonna let us escape, huh?
[05:50] Shin
    No, that's not it.
[05:58] Lacia
    Wil, what should we do? Hey, Wil!
[06:01] Wilhelm
    Keep it together.
    Shouting won't help anything.
[06:04] Wilhelm
    C'mon, Shin! Let's break
     through them and flee.
[06:07] Shin
    No. I'm staying here.
[06:08] Wilhelm
    What? What're you talking about?
[06:10] Wilhelm
    You got a death wish?
[06:13] Shin
    Limit Off.
[06:16] Shin
    Now that the seal is gone,
    I can't allow these monsters to roam free.
[06:21] Shin
    I'll stop them here and now
     before they cause more damage.
[06:25] Shin
    You two make a break for the kingdom.
[06:27] Wilhelm
    This power...
[06:29] Wilhelm
    Just who are you?
[06:31] Shin
    Take care of Yuzuha and Lacia for me.
[06:34] Wilhelm
    You've got some explaining
    to do once we're back.
[06:37] Shin
    Sure.
[06:39] Shin
    I'll cast a physical enhancement buff on you.
[06:41] Shin
    You'll run faster than normal, so don't trip.
[06:43] Wilhelm
    Who do you think you're talking to?
[06:45] Wilhelm
    Hey. The fox won't let go of you.
[06:48] Shin
    Ow, ow, ow! Come on, Yuzuha.
[06:54] Shin
    Fine. You'd better not leave my side.
[06:58] Wilhelm
    Looks like you reached an agreement.
[07:00] Shin
    Yeah. I'll clear the way for you.
[07:05] Shin
    Lightning Banker!
[07:09] Shin
    Go!
[07:14] Shin
    They're off.
[07:17] Shin
    Let's get started, too.
[07:27] Shin
    Fox Fire, huh? Nice one, Yuzuha.
[07:35] Shin
    If this happens every time it roars,
    we'll be here forever.
[07:38] Shin
    Yuzuha, this is gonna get a little wild.
[07:41] Shin
    Hold on tight.
[07:43] Shin
    Flying Sparrow Thunder Strike!
[07:55] Shin
    That took out a decent number of them.
[07:59] Shin
    Ugh, the map is solid red.
[08:02] Shin
    If only Schnee were here,
    I'd have more options for fighting them.
[08:06] Shin
    A blue marker?
[08:08] Shin
    Blue is for allies.
[08:10] Shin
    But wait. If it's getting closer, then...
[08:15] Shin
    Yuzuha, we're gonna make a quick detour.
[08:37] Shin
    H-How have you been?
[08:43] Shin
    Read the room, guys.
[08:47] Shin
    Yuzuha?
[08:53] Shin
    A barrier, huh? Thanks, Yuzuha.
[08:58] Shin
    Schnee—
[09:04] Shin
    S-Schnee?
[09:07] Schnee
    Don't you have something to say?
[09:11] Shin
    Um, sorry for abandoning you all this time?
[09:15] Schnee
    Not that.
[09:18] Shin
    Th-Thanks for watching over the shop?
[09:21] Schnee
    Not that.
[09:23] Shin
    She doesn't want an apology or thanks.
[09:26] Shin
    What does that leave?
[09:27] Sign
    Moon Sanctum
[09:28] Shin
    What haven't I said yet?
[09:30] Shin
    What should I be saying?
[09:35] Shin
    Oh, right.
[09:39] Shin
    I'm back.
[09:40] Schnee
    Welcome back.
[09:47] Schnee
    I thought you'd never return.
[09:50] Shin
    I bet.
[09:52] Shin
    Ending the death game
    should have wiped my save data,
[09:55] Shin
    including the Moon Sanctum, Schnee,
    and my other followers.
[10:00] Shin
    Yuzuha?
[10:02] Shin
    The barrier wore off.
[10:08] Shin
    We've got a lot to discuss,
    but why don't we deal with this first?
[10:13] Schnee
    Right.
[10:14] Shin
    I figured we can fire off one huge attack.
[10:16] Schnee
    A good idea.
[10:18] Schnee
    We've got just the thing for it.
[10:23] Shin
    Here we go.
[10:26] Shin
    It's been a while
    since we last worked together.
[10:28] Schnee
    It has.
[10:30] Shin
    That which is pure, reveal yourself.
[10:34] Schnee
    That which is eternal, reveal yourself.
[10:37] Both
    Sanctuary!
[11:16] Schnee
    Master!
[11:18] Shin
    Wait.
[11:20] Lord
    Give... that power... to me...
[11:26] Shin
    Did this thing... just talk?
[11:30] Schnee
    Master, are you all right?
[11:33] Shin
    Yeah, I'm fine. All good here.
[11:37] Shin
    In the end, I didn't learn anything.
[11:40] Shin
    Feels like I should have been able to, though.
[11:44] Shin
    Guess that's that.
[11:45] Schnee
    It certainly seems that way.
[11:47] Schnee
    This place will return
    to how it once was eventually.
[11:51] Shin
    Since we're here, we don't we chat a little?
[11:57] Schnee
    Very well.
[12:00] Shin
    Do you remember sending me off
    when I went to defeat Origin?
[12:05] Schnee
    Yes.
[12:06] Shin
    Well, I slew him, which should've
     put an end to everything.

[12:11] Shin
    But there were these huge doors
    in the dungeon boss room.
[12:14] Shin
    And when I beat the boss, they opened.
[12:18] Schnee
    Doors, you say?
[12:20] Shin
    Yeah. Then I lost consciousness
    and woke up in a field.
[12:25] Shin
    So it's not like I just
    wandered off for 500 years.
[12:29] Schnee
    I see. So that's what happened.
[12:32] Shin
    Schnee?
[12:34] Schnee
    It's nothing.
[12:37] Schnee
    The dungeon disappeared without a trace.
[12:40] Schnee
    When other players' support characters
    started saying their masters had vanished,
[12:46] Schnee
    I knew you'd cleared the dungeon.
[12:49] Schnee
    But we found it strange that we remained
    when we should've disappeared with you,
[12:54] Schnee
    so we decided to look for you.
[12:57] Schnee
    However, seismic shifts
    threw the continent into chaos,
[13:02] Schnee
    so we split up to work separately.
[13:06] Schnee
    I returned to the Moon Sanctum,
    which brings us to the present.
[13:11] Shin
    That more or less lines up with my research.
[13:14] Schnee
    Master, is there something on your mind?
[13:17] Shin
    No. It's nothing.
[13:19] Shin
    By the way, Schnee...
[13:23] Shin
    Could you stop calling me "Master"?
[13:26] Schnee
    What's wrong with calling my master "Master"?
[13:30] Shin
    It would cause a fuss if someone overheard
    a legend like you addressing me that way.
[13:36] Schnee
    I see. Then how shall I address you?
[13:41] Shin
    Huh? Can't you just call me by my name?
[13:44] Schnee
    I-I daren't...
[13:46] Shin
    What's wrong, Schnee?
[13:49] Schnee
    W-Well, in that case...
[13:52] Schnee
    Shin.
[13:54] Shin
    Y-Yeah.
[13:56] Shin
    I thought my heart would give out!
[13:58] Schnee
    What?
[13:59] Shin
    Oh, nothing. Really, it's nothing.
[14:02] Shin
    Anyway, call me Shin from now on.
[14:05] Schnee
    Very well, Shin.
[14:09] Shin
    Good!
[14:11] Schnee
    Shin, what are you going to do now?
[14:14] Shin
    Well, first I'm thinking of visiting
    the sacred site I read about
[14:19] Shin
    in my research at the kingdom's library.
[14:22] Shin
    Ever been there?
[14:23] Schnee
    Yes. Only for a cursory
    investigation, however.
[14:27] Schnee
    I don't know what it's like on the inside.
[14:30] Shin
    I see.
[14:32] Shin
    Then I'll have to go check it out myself.
[14:36] Schnee
    If you find a way to leave this place,
[14:40] Schnee
    will you return home?
[14:47] Shin
    Yeah.
[14:52] Schnee
    I see...
[14:55] Schnee
    Of course you will.
[14:57] Shin
    Sorry.
[14:58] Schnee
    It's all right. I figured you'd say that.
[15:03] Shin
    Say, Schnee...
[15:05] Shin
    How much do you remember from the game?
[15:09] Schnee
    Everything.
[15:11] Shin
    Everything?
[15:13] Schnee
    Everything from the day
    we descended to this land together.
[15:18] Schnee
    I remember it all.
[15:21] Schnee
    Don't bother telling me to forget it.
[15:25] Shin
    I wouldn't do that.
[15:27] Schnee
    I became more aware during the period
    you and the others called the death game.
[15:33] Schnee
    Until then, it was like I'd been
     watching a video
[15:37] Schnee
    or observing the situation from above.
[15:41] Shin
    I see.
[15:43] Shin
    In other words, they knew
    they'd disappear after we logged out.
[15:50] Shin
    When I think about what you guys
    must've been going through then...
[15:54] Schnee
    If we'd said anything,
    it only would have troubled you.
[15:58] Schnee
    It was the right choice at the time.
[16:01] Shin
    I see.
[16:03] Schnee
    We weren't completely autonomous then,
[16:07] Schnee
    so either way, we couldn't have done anything.
[16:10] Shin
    Even so, you can't expect me not to second
    guess it now that I know you were self-aware.
[16:16] Schnee
    You're as difficult as ever, Shin.
[16:19] Shin
    Shut up. Leave me alone.
[16:22] Schnee
    But even if you'd known,
    you still would have gone to fight.
[16:28] Shin
    Well, yeah.
[16:29] Schnee
    Besides, we made a promise.
[16:37] Shin
    Yeah.
[16:45] Schnee
    Now, then...
[16:47] Schnee
    That's enough solemn talk.
[16:49] Schnee
    Let's not spoil our reunion.
[16:51] Shin
    Right? Let's party once we're back
    at the Moon Sanctum.
[16:55] Schnee
    Yes, let's.
[16:56] Schnee
    But first, I'd like to ask you something else.
[17:03] Schnee
    Who is this?
[17:05] Shin
    Oh, right.
[17:07] Shin
    It's a long story, but we're partners now.
[17:10] Shin
    Meet Yuzuha.
[17:12] Shin
    Between you and me, Yuzuha's an Elementail.
[17:14] Schnee
    An Elementail?
[17:16] Schnee
    I knew it was no ordinary spirit
    when I saw those tails, but...
[17:20] Shin
    You could tell by the tail?
[17:21] Schnee
    Have you not noticed?
[17:29] Shin
    There are three...
[17:33] Yuzuha
    Good morning, Shin.
[17:35] Shin
    What?! Wait a minute, Yuzuha.
[17:37] Shin
    You can talk now?
[17:40] Yuzuha
    My head cleared up
    when that black stuff disappeared.
[17:45] Shin
    Black stuff?
[17:47] Shin
    Come to think of it, the shrine
    was surrounded by Skullfaces, too.
[17:52] Shin
    That Lord must've been their leader.
[17:55] Shin
    In any case, no speaking in front of people.
[17:58] Yuzuha
    Aw.
[17:59] Shin
    Normal spirit foxes don't speak.
[18:02] Yuzuha
    Then can I speak inside your head?
[18:05] Shin
    You mean telepathy? That's fine.
[18:08] Schnee
    But Shin, now that it has more tails,
[18:11] Schnee
    you can't pass it off as a Little Fox.
[18:13] Shin
    Yuzuha, can you merge your tails into one?
[18:16] Yuzuha
    Piece of cake!
[18:21] Schnee
    Impressive.
[18:24] Shin
    Can you do this when we're around people?
[18:26] Yuzuha
    Sure thing.
[18:28] Shin
    Well, that was an easy solution.
[18:30] Yuzuha
    Was I good?
[18:32] Shin
    Yes, very good.
[18:36] Schnee
    How cute.
[18:39] Schnee
    N-Nothing.
[18:42] Shin
    Wanna pet it?
[18:43] Schnee
    Yes, please.
[18:46] Schnee
    You always find ways to surprise me, Shin.
[18:51] Schnee
    No one has ever successfully
    tamed an Elementail before.
[18:56] Shin
    You seem pretty calm in spite of that.
[18:58] Schnee
    I was surprised, but I figured
    you of all people could pull it off.
[19:03] Schnee
    Unlike the one we fought previously,
    this one isn't high-level.
[19:07] Shin
    Pulling your punches to weaken one
    would would be no easy feat.
[19:11] Shin
    Normally, you can't let your
    guard down around their kind.
[19:17] Shin
    We should get going.
[19:18] Schnee
    All right.
[19:19] Shin
    Oh, right. I sent my companions
     back without me.
[19:22] Schnee
    Then we should hurry.
[19:24] Schnee
    We may be able to catch up to them.
[19:26] Shin
    You're right. We'll go as quick as we can.
[19:28] Shin
    Don't want anyone reporting this to the guild.
[19:31] Schnee
    If you'd told me that sooner,
    we could have saved our talk for later.
[19:38] Shin
    I couldn't wait after seeing your face.
[19:42] Shin
    This and that are entirely separate matters.
[19:46] Shin
    Okay, let's go.
[19:47] Schnee
    All right.
[19:55] Lacia
    Hey, Wil. Shin will be okay, right?
[19:58] Wilhelm
    Don't worry. You know how strong he is.
[20:02] Lacia
    But...
[20:04] Wilhelm
    Something's coming. At a crazy-fast speed, too.
[20:07] Lacia
    Wil...
[20:08] Wilhelm
    Stay back!
[20:09] Lacia
    Did that monster follow us?
[20:12] Wilhelm
    It's coming in hot.
[20:13] Wilhelm
    We'll engage it here.
[20:21] Shin
    Hey, Wilhelm.
[20:24] Shin
    Looks like we caught up.
[20:27] Shin
    Is something wrong?
[20:29] Wilhelm
    Don't confuse me like that!
[20:37] Aldi
    Look at the ground here.
[20:39] Knight 4
    What happened?
[20:41] Rionne
    Have you learned anything?
[20:43] Aldi
    No. I'm sorry, Lady Rionne.
[20:46] Rionne
    I see.
[20:49] Rionne
    After we heard that mysterious voice,
    a horde of Skullfaces suddenly appeared.
[20:53] Rionne
    Then that light filled the sky.
[20:56] Rionne
    The Skullfaces turned to dust,
    and we were all healed.
[21:01] Rionne
    Who could've been responsible?
[21:04] Gadras
    Forgive me for interrupting you,
    but could you take a look at this?
[21:09] Rionne
    What is it?
[21:10] Gadras
    It was on the ground
    at the far end of the fissure.
[21:14] Gadras
    It was jammed at the starting point,
    so I believe this sword was the origin.
[21:19] Gadras
    I don't know what kind of skill
    did it, though.
[21:22] Rionne
    I see.
[21:23] Gadras
    The thing is...
[21:24] Gadras
    What do you see on this sword here?
[21:28] Rionne
    Some kind of bird?
[21:30] Gadras
    Yes. I believe it's what's known as a falcon.
[21:33] Gadras
    I know a blacksmith
    who carves these on their swords.
[21:37] Gadras
    Watch this.
[21:40] Rionne
    Well, well.
[21:41] Gadras
    Not only did it not break,
    but it's still this powerful, even nicked.
[21:45] Gadras
    As far as I'm aware,
[21:47] Gadras
    there's only one smith
    who forges swords this fine
[21:50] Gadras
    and engraves their work with falcons.
[21:54] Rionne
    Who?
[21:55] Gadras
    A high human.
[21:58] Gadras
    The Black Blacksmith, the most
    skilled smithy of his kind.
