[00:17] referee
    End of bout! Winner, Angelica Diarmuit!
[00:25] Reanette
    Congratulations.
[00:27] Rick
    You've made it through
    the preliminaries, right?
[00:29] Angelica
    Forty wins in a row.
[00:31] Angelica
    I intend to win my way through the
    block league matches as well.
[00:35] Rick
    All right! I've gotta do my best, too!
[00:38] Angelica
    Do you really intend to compete
    in 40 matches in four days?
[00:41] Rick
    Yes. Why?
[00:42] Anglica
    You do understand that each venue
    only hosts one bout per day?
[00:48] Rick
    Yes.
[00:49] Angelica
    It must be because you're unfamiliar with the
    area that you've made so many fight requests.
[00:53] Angelica
    It really is impossible.
[00:55] Angelica
    There are several dozen sites for the
    preliminaries across the kingdom.
[00:58] Angelica
    A distant venue might be a hundred
    kilometers away. Which is why—
[01:02] Reanette
    Rick-sama, it's time.
[01:04] Rick
    Whoops, you're right.
[01:05] Rick
    Sorry, Angelica. I have a bout
    at the Green Hill Arena at ten.
[01:10] Angelica
    Weren't you listening?!
[01:12] Angelica
    The Green Hill Arena is
    30 kilometers from here!
[01:16] Angelica
    Even if you took a coach—
[01:17] Rick
    A coach? You must be joking!
     I'm in a hurry, so I'll just run!
[01:20] Angelica
    Why are you acting like I'm the crazy one?
[01:23] Rick
    Well, I'll be back soon!
[01:27] Angelica
    What about my position as someone
    who uses Flickering Feet?
[01:31] Angelica
    He really does defy all common sense.
[01:34] Reanette
    Are you interested in Rick-sama's match?
[01:37] Angelica
    Well, yes. I would like to watch it,
    but I can't think of any way to do so.
[01:42] Reanette
    Then allow me to take you there.
[01:44] Angelica
    I have an incredibly bad feeling about this.
[01:47] Angelica
    No!
[01:55] Angelica
    Wh-Wh-Why are you going so high up?!
[01:58] Reanette
    Because the streets are crowded.
[02:01] Angelica
    That's enough for me! Please put me down!

[03:42] Rick
    Oh! Angelica, you came to watch?
[03:46] Angelica
    I was in no state to watch.
[03:49] Rick
    Actually, I really messed up.
[03:51] Rick
    The third of my Eight Secrets of Going
    Easy needs a few more adjustments.
[03:57] Reanette
    Then, shall we go to the next venue?
[03:59] Rick
    Yes!
[04:03] Angelica
    In that case, I'll be on my way.

[04:39] Angelica
    He really won 40 matches in four days
    to make it through the preliminaries.
[04:44] Angelica
    That utterly defies all common sense.
[04:47] Reanette
    Next will be the block league matches.
[04:49] Angelica
    Not being in the same block
    as him means I'm safe.
[04:53] Reanette
    Angelica-sama, are you aiming
    to win the tournament?
[04:57] Angelica
    Since I've entered, I would like to win...
[05:00] Angelica
    but as long as that 40-something
    is around, it's impossible.
[05:03] Reanette
    And Broughston-sama will be
    participating in the Eastern League.
[05:07] Angelica
    Broughston?
[05:09] Reanette
    He's the one who taught Rick-sama.
    He's an S-rank adventurer.
[05:12] Angelica
    S-rank?!
[05:14] Angelica
    There's another monster like him competing?
[05:18] Reanette
    Please, do your best.
[05:21] Angelica
    Even if winning is impossible,
    I won't let that man...
[05:25] Reanette
    "That man"?
[05:31] Angelica
    Wherever has that 40-something gotten to?
[05:34] Reanette
    He's out jogging to the Tronia region.
[05:39] Angelica
    That's six hundred kilometers there and back.
[05:43] Angelica
    I rather hate myself for not
    being surprised anymore.
[05:48] Angelica
    I'm amazed that you can
    put up with all of that.
[05:51] Reanette
    I've never once found myself
    inconvenienced by it.
[05:54] Angelica
    You say that, but you're always together.
[05:57] Angelica
    You'd hate it if people said you
    were in love, wouldn't you?
[06:00] Reanette
    I wouldn't mind.
[06:01] Angelica
    What?
[06:02] Reanette
    I have a great affection for Rick-sama.
[06:08] Angelica
    I-I see! W-Well then,
    there's no problem at all!
[06:12] Reanette
    Indeed.
[06:13] clerk
    Excuse me, lovely ladies,
    may I have a moment?
[06:17] Angelica
    What is it? Are you hitting on us?
[06:20] clerk
    We don't have enough part-timers!
    Please, won't you help us?
[06:26] Angelica
    What?
[06:33] Snape
    Ah, you're Rick Gladiatol-san, aren't you?
[06:38] Rick
    Yes, I am.
[06:39] Snape
    Pardon the suddenness.
[06:41] Snape
    I am the chairman of the Western
    League's management committee.
[06:44] Snape
    My name is Snape Resurrect.
[06:47] Rick
    How do you know who I am?
[06:48] Snape
    What do you mean?
[06:50] Snape
    Of course I would know the fastest qualifier
    of the Western League preliminaries in history.
[06:56] Rick
    I see.
[06:59] guard
    Snape-sama, Angelica-sama
    appears to be absent.
[07:03] Snape
    I see. I suppose there's nothing
    to be done about that.
[07:06] Rick
    You know Angelica?
[07:09] Snape
    Yes, we're quite close.
[07:11] Snape
    I am a mere merchant, but the House
    of Diarmuit treats me very kindly.
[07:16] Rick
    If I may ask, when did you retire
    from being a pugilist?
[07:20] Snape
    Why do you say I used to be a pugilist?
[07:23] Rick
    It's just... Your handshake felt like one
    from someone who'd trained to fight.
[07:29] Snape
    All I can say is that you
    live up to your reputation.
[07:32] Snape
    It was over 20 years ago,
     but I did win a little competition.
[07:37] Snape
    The sense of accomplishment and roar
    of the crowd were quite uplifting.
[07:42] Snape
    However, I retired when I was 23 years old,
[07:46] Snape
    so that ended up being the first
    and last time I won anything.
[07:50] Rick
    You retired at a really young age, huh?
[07:53] Snape
    Apologies. I've said too much.
[07:57] Snape
    When it comes to speaking about
    pugilists, I tend to forget myself.
[08:01] Snape
    Actually, my company has entered
    someone in this competition.
[08:06] Rick
    Really?
[08:08] Snape
    Well, then...
[08:10] Snape
    Oh, yes. Please give my
    regards to Angelica-san.
[08:14] Snape
    Tell her not to get too excited...
[08:18] Snape
    And to please look after herself.
[08:27] Milicia
    Rick-san, are you all right?
[08:29] Rick
    Why do you ask?
[08:31] Milicia
    You had to speak with Snape-san, didn't you?
[08:34] Milicia
    From the Dragonaut Company.
[08:36] Rick
    Drago... Oh. He said he was
    a merchant or something.
[08:40] Milicia
    If nothing happened, that's fine,
     but please be careful.
[08:44] Milicia
    He looks like a gentleman,
[08:46] Milicia
    but there are so many rumors that
    he's connected to the underworld.
[08:49] Rick
    Really?
[08:51] Rick
    He said that he's close to
    Angelica's family, though.
[08:54] Milicia
    He's the lead sponsor for
    the competition this year.
[08:57] Milicia
    Everyone was shocked by that.
[08:59] Rick
    He mentioned that his company entered
    someone in the competition.
[09:03] Milicia
    The sponsor's slot.
[09:05] Milicia
    They have a slot for a
    competitor in the tournament.
[09:07] Rick
    Sponsor's slot?
[09:10] customer A
    Hey, is that for real?
[09:12] customer B
    Yeah. The level of the bunnies
    this year is really high.
[09:15] customer B
    Especially that newcomer,
     that dark elf girl. She's incredible!
[09:19] Rick
    Dark elf?
[09:21] Angelica
    Now, who will win their way through
    the Western League block?
[09:25] Angelcia
    Who will be the seven competitors
    in the King of Fists Tournament?
[09:29] Reanette
    We are accepting bets here.
[09:32] Angelica
    Come, everyone! Rouse your
    courage and place a bet!
[09:36] bunny B
    Angelica-san, you're very
    passionate about this.
[09:38] Angelica
    I-I'm not doing this because
    I want to, you know?
[09:41] Reanette
    Is that true?
[09:43] Reanette
    If you hadn't accepted the job,
    I would have turned it down.
[09:47] Angelica
    You can turn down someone asking
    with a blood-covered face?
[09:49] clerk; flashback
    Please, I'm begging you!
[09:52] Reantte
    Yes.
[09:52] Angelica
    You're heartless!
[09:53] Domuld
    Outta the way! Outta the way!
[09:58] Domuld
    Oh, I like the way you sound.
[10:01] bunny B
    Sir, please stop that.
[10:02] Domuld
    Oh, shut up! If you're gonna complain,
    I'll take you home with me!
[10:09] Domuld
    Oh! I'll look after you, too!
[10:15] Domuld
    What's with the washboard here?
[10:21] Domuld
    This bunny's strong.
[10:24] Angelica
    Now please leave!
[10:26] Rick
    Angelica?
[10:28] Rick
    Why are you dressed like that?
[10:30] Angelica
    No, this is... Someone asked
    me to, so I had no choice.
[10:35] Reanette
    Rick-sama.
[10:36] Rick
    Oh, Reane—!
[10:40] Reanette
    Rick-sama, is something wrong?
[10:44] Rick
    R-Reanette...
[10:51] Angelica
    Why is his reaction to her so different?

    He made it through the Eastern League
    preliminaries in a mere two days.
[11:09] Daniel
    And this says every match was decided
    by a single knock-out blow.
[11:13] Daniel
    It's unbelievable.
[11:15] Kerwin
    That orc is so incredible that
    the other coverage is minor,
[11:19] Kerwin
    but that other man made it through
    the Western League in four days.
[11:24] Kerwin
    I think I'll enjoy the event this year.
[11:32] (Flashback) man
    Stop right there, you blasted brat!
[11:38] (Flashback) Daniel
    This is the place.
[11:41] (Flashback) Daniel
    Let's go.
[11:48] (Flashback) Daniel
    This is...
[11:49] (Flashback) Kerwin
    What do you want?
[11:54] (Flashback) Daniel
    You're the Ravenous Wolf of the Slums?
[11:56] (Flashback) Kerwin
    Some people call me that.
[11:59] (Flashback) Kerwin
    Are you a gang member here to kill me?
[12:01] (Flashback) Daniel
    No.
[12:02] (Flashback) Kerwin
    Then could you clean that up for me?
[12:05] (Flashback) Daniel
    Ask someone else to do that.
[12:07] (Flashback) Kerwin
    I thought you'd say that. It's a pain,
    but I guess I'll go dump 'em somewhere.
[12:11] (Flashback) Daniel
    I came here to scout you.
[12:14] (Flashback) Kerwin
    Scout?
[12:15] (Flashback) Daniel
    Come to Heractopia.
[12:17] (Flashback) Daniel
    In that kingdom, you can obtain whatever
    you want by fighting and winning.
[12:22] (Flashback) Daniel
    There are a lot of strong fighters there.
[12:26] (Flashback) Kerwin
    Really?
[12:27] (Flashback) Kerwin
    Fine. Sounds like fun.
[12:32] Daniel
    I haven't seen that expression in a while.
[12:36] Kerwin
    You might be right.
[12:38] Kerwin
    I haven't felt this way in a long time.
[12:42] Rick
    What's wrong, Angelica?
[12:44] Angelica
    Nothing in the slightest.
[12:47] Rick
    Are you bothered by what happened yesterday?
[12:49] Rick
    You looked cute too, Angelica. Really.
[12:52] Reanette
    Yes. You were very popular
    with a portion of the crowd.
[12:59] Rick
    Oh, right. Speaking of yesterday,
    someone named Snape came to see you.
[13:08] Angelica
    I don't know anyone like that.
[13:11] announcer
    Now, the block league competition to decide
    the tournament participants is about to begin!
[13:17] announcer
    Only one entrant from each block can
    participate in the final tournament!
[13:21] announcer
    A heated battle is about to begin!
[13:24] announcer
    In the first match from Block A, we have
    Helen Thompson vs Angelica Diarmuit!
[13:30] announcer
    It's a fight between two women!
[13:33] announcer
    And now, combatants, fight!
[13:37] Angelica
    Flickering Feet!
[13:41] Rick
    She seems tense.
[13:43] Reanette
    Yes, she does. Angelica-sama
    doesn't seem her usual self.
[13:50] announcer
    Winner, Angelica Diarmuit!
[13:53] pugilist C
    Let's go!
[13:55] pugilist C
    Chest shot!
[13:56] Rick
    Eight Secrets of Going Easy, number three...
[13:59] Rick
    Pass by and give a knifehand strike.
[14:04] Rick; internal
    Yes! That went well!
[14:06] Reanette
    He's gotten better at holding back.
[14:09] Angelica
    He is just as ridiculous as ever.
[14:25] Reanette
    There are four more bouts.
[14:27] Angelica
    In order to ensure our
    participation in the knockouts,
[14:30] Angelica
    we can't lose a single match.
[14:32] Rick
    With that in mind, let's keep doing
    our best. Today's opponents are—
[14:35] Angelica
    Yes. I'll go and finish this quickly.
[14:41] Anglica
    Flickering Feet!
[14:44] Taylor
    You just won't stay still!
[14:47] Angelica
    Level-Three Nature Composed Magic, Water Wall!
[14:52] Angelica
    Level-Two Nature Composed Magic, Thunder Arrow!
[14:58] Rick
    She's combined her specialty hit-and-run
    tactics with Nature Composed Magic.
[15:03] Rick
    But against this opponent...
[15:06] Taylor
    What's wrong, little kitten?
     I can still take a whole lot more.
[15:09] Taylor
    Are you tired already?
[15:11] Angelica
    What did you say?
[15:12] Angelica
    Flickering Feet!
[15:15] Taylor
    See? You're slower than you
    were in the beginning!
[15:18] Angelica
    Oh no—
[15:25] Rick
    Angelica!
[15:28] announcer
    End of bout!
[15:29] announcer
    Angelica pressed her opponent
    with a number of moves,
[15:32] announcer
    but a single blow from Taylor Bridds
    has rendered her unable to continue!
[15:40] healer
    I've finished.
[15:42] healer
    You're mostly healed,
     but please rest for one night.
[15:51] Rick
    How are your injuries?
[15:53] Angelica
    I'm fine.
[15:55] Rick
    It seemed like you were too impatient.
[15:58] Angelica
    What do you mean by that?
[16:00] Rick
    Your opponent's defensive
    strength was clear to see.
[16:03] Rick
    You knew it wasn't a good
    match for your style, didn't you?
[16:05] Rick
    But you chose to stick to tactics
    that would tire you out!
[16:08] Angelica
    No one asked for your advice!
[16:10] Rick
    Hey!
[16:13] Rick
    Wait, Angelica!
[16:15] Angelica
    No!
[16:16] Rick
    You were at a disadvantage,
[16:17] Rick
    but the usual you would have
    been able to win that match!
[16:20] Angelica
    Stop nagging me!
[16:22] Rick
    If you're worried about something,
    you can ask me for advice!
[16:25] Rick
    Although, I might not be much help.
[16:34] Angelica
    You really are a meddler, aren't you?
[16:40] Rick
    That man?
[16:42] Angelica
    That man who came here the other day,
     Snape, is my fiancé.
[16:48] Rick
    Huh. Your fiancé...
[16:51] Angelica
    Snape has intervened in a number of
    problems the House of Diarmuit had.
[16:57] Angelica
    It all started a year ago.
[16:59] Angelica
    My parents passed away in an accident.
[17:03] Angelica
    My siblings and I took on the
    management of the Diarmuit lands,
[17:07] Angelica
    but we were inexperienced and fell
    into grave financial difficulties.
[17:12] Angelica
    That's when our scrooge of
     a grandfather stepped in.
[17:16] Angelica
    He made a deal with Snape.
[17:20] Angelica
    Snape was probably aiming for
     a pipeline to nobles and royals.
[17:24] Angelica
    He promised to provide the House
    of Diarmuit a large sum of money,
[17:27] Angelica
    and he demanded a betrothal to me in return.
[17:32] Angelica
    After that, we desperately
    rebuilt our finances.
[17:36] Angelica
    But it was too late to
    nullify the betrothal.
[17:44] Rick
    F-F-F-F-Fiancé?!
[17:47] Angelica
    What a delay!
[17:48] Rick
    What do you mean, he's your fiancé?
    Is he your type?
[17:51] Angelica
    I just explained that!
[17:53] Angelica
    Your ability to process information
    has completely rotted away!
[17:57] Rick
    S-Sorry! You're right. Let's just calm down.
[18:01] Angelica
    At any rate, I looked into Snape
    while trying to block the betrothal.
[18:05] Angelica
    When I did, I saw he'd become the
    main sponsor for this tournament.
[18:09] Rick
    Oh. Milicia mentioned that
    everyone was surprised.
[18:13] Angelica
    Now, this is my main point.
[18:15] Angelica
    As the sponsor of the tournament,
    Snape intends to—
[18:21] Rick
    What's all the commotion?
[18:23] Angelica
    That's Taylor Bridds.
[18:23] Taylor; background
    She just bumped into you
    a little, that's all!
[18:25] Taylor
    Let the woman go!
[18:27] Geith
    Huh? Who do you think you're talking to?
[18:30] Angelica
    And that man is...
[18:32] Taylor
    Who would I be talking to other than you?
[18:36] Geith
    Really?
[18:40] Geith
    This blasted weakling is getting too cocky!
[18:49] Angelica
    He knocked Taylor out with one blow?
[18:53] Geith
    The likes of you never had
    a chance of beating me!
[18:58] Geith
    Now, what are you going
    to do about this, huh?
[19:03] woman
    I'm sorry. I'll clean it up right away!
[19:08] Geith
    The beer isn't the issue here.
[19:11] Geith
    What's important is whether I'm
    angry or not. It's all that matters.
[19:17] Geith
    What are you gonna do to
    make me feel better, huh?
[19:27] Geith
    What's this? Do you want
    to get destroyed too?
[19:32] Angelica
    Let her go!
[19:36] Geith
    Who are you to get in my way?
[19:38] Geith
    You pest!
[19:42] Rick
    Now, now. Let's all calm down for a moment.
[19:45] Geith
    Huh? And who are you?
[19:49] Snape
    Geith.
[19:51] Rick
    Snape-san!
[19:53] Snape
    Won't you please leave things at that
     and restrain yourself until the tournament?
[20:01] Geith
    Move!
[20:08] Snape
    I apologize for all the trouble. I will
    send compensation at a later date.
[20:14] Rick
    Snape-san! Who was that?
[20:17] Snape
    His name is Geith Resurrect.
[20:19] Snape
    We're far apart in age,
     but he's my younger brother.
[20:22] Rick
    What?
[20:23] Rick
    Your little brother?
[20:26] Snape
    Geith gets this violent when
     he's annoyed by a troublesome fly.
[20:33] Snape
    As no one is strong enough to stop him,
     he is troublesome to deal with,
[20:37] Snape
    but he also calms down quickly.
[20:40] Snape
    Angelica-san, you aren't hurt, are you?
[20:45] Angelica
    I'm fine.
[20:46] Snape
    I'm glad to hear it. Your health
    is very precious, after all.
[20:54] Rick
    Snape-san becoming the tournament's
    sponsor and your engagement...
[20:59] Rick
    What's the connection?
[21:01] Angelica
    The amount exchanged for the
    betrothal was a significant sum.
[21:05] Angelica
    I looked into the Dragonaut Company assets,
    and they don't have nearly enough.
[21:11] Angelica
    So, he intends to earn it here,
     through the tournament.
[21:15] Rick
    I'm sure there's a ridiculous amount
    of money at stake in this tournament.
[21:20] Rick
    If he wants to make some of that, then...
[21:23] Rick
    Could it be...
[21:25] Rick
    he's fixing the game?
[21:26] Angelica
    Exactly!
[21:27] Angelica
    He's going to use the sponsor's slot
    to fix the outcome of the tournament.
[21:32] Angelica
    And that's why...
[21:34] Angelica
    I'm going to defeat his entrant
    and call off this engagement!
[21:40] Rick
    I see. And that's why you became a pugilist.
[21:45] Angelica
    But the competitor in the sponsor's
    slot is that Geith from earlier.
[21:50] Rick
    Him, huh?
[21:52] Angelica
    It pains me to say it, but even
    if I make it into the tournament,
[21:55] Angelica
    I can't beat Geith as I am now.
[21:59] Rick
    Hey, Angelica?
[22:01] Rick
    What if I trained you?
[22:06] Angelica
    What?!
[22:07] Angelica
    Am I... being notified of
    my own murder right now?
