SIGN    The Reincarnation of
    the Strongest Exorcist in Another World
[01:32] Amyu
    Summer break starts tomorrow.
[01:34] Amyu
    You guys are all going home, right?
[01:36] Seika
    Actually, I was told out of the blue to go
    investigate a dragon in the Kingdom of Astiria.
[01:41] Amyu
    Why you?
[01:42] Seika
    A member of the Astirian
    Diet asked my dad to go,
[01:46] Seika
    but he's busy, so I'm going in his place.
[01:49] Yifa
    His grades are good, so his father must've
    thought he was perfect for the job.
[01:54] Seika
    I didn't have any plans, anyway.
[01:56] Amyu
    That sounds fun!
[01:58] Amyu
    Can I go with you?
[01:59] Seika
    Don't be silly. Your parents are
    waiting for you at home, aren't they?
[02:04] Amyu
    You're no fun.
[02:06] Mabel
    What about me? I don't have any plans.
[02:09] Seika
    Sure you do.
[02:10] Seika
    Studying.
[02:12] Seika
    And you've got parents
    waiting for you, too, right?
[02:16] Mabel
    I'll stay here, then.
[02:21] Seika
    Yifa, will you come with me?
[02:24] Seika
    I won't force you to.
[02:26] Yifa
    Y-Yes, yes I will!
[02:27] Amyu
    So when are you leaving?
[02:34] Cecilio
    So this is the place, huh?
[02:36] Cecilio
    It's such an old building, though!
[02:38] Cecilio
    It's so modest!
[02:40] Cecilio
    You should rebuild it!
[02:43] Lize
    Sire.
[02:45] Cecilio
    Sorry, forget I said that.
[02:49] Amyu
    Who's that?
[02:51] Cecilio
    Is that him, then?
[02:53] Cecilio
    Thanks for bringing me here.
[02:55] Cecilio
    Hey. You're Lord Seika, right?
[02:59] Seika
    Yes...
[03:00] Cecilio
    I'm Cecilio, crown prince of Astiria.
[03:05] Seika
    An honor to meet you, Prince.
[03:08] Seika
    You didn't need to come all the
    way here. I would've come to you.
[03:12] Cecilio
    I wanted to see the Empire's magic
    academy while I was meeting you.
[03:18] Cecilio
    You can really feel the history here...
[03:23] Cecilio
    What's your name?
[03:25] Yifa
    Um... Yifa.
[03:29] Cecilio
    You're so beautiful...
[03:32] Cecilio
    You must be a wise and noble lady,
    to be able to study at this school!
[03:37] Cecilio
    I'd like you to join my country's
    harem and become one of my wives!
[03:46] Yifa
    I-I'm sorry, I'm a slave...
[03:50] Yifa
    And Seika's servant... I can't...
[03:55] Cecilio
    I see. Lord Seika, just
    name your price for her!
[03:59] Seika
    U-Um...
[04:03] Lize
    Sire, this isn't the place.
[04:05] Lize
    Let's go somewhere else.
[04:06] Cecilio
    Yes, you're right.
[04:08] Seika
    I'm worried about this guy...
[04:12] Cecilio
    Has your father told you about
    the matter with the dragon?
[04:16] Seika
    Yes, by letter.
    Can you tell me in more detail?
[04:21] Cecilio
    Yes, about that, Lord Seika...
[04:24] Seika
    Before that, Prince, you
    don't need to call me "Lord."
[04:28] Seika
    My father hasn't given me his title.
[04:31] Cecilio
    I hadn't realized.
[04:33] Cecilio
    I'll just call you "Seika," then.
[04:35] Seika
    Thank you.
[04:36] Cecilio
    Now, the dragon of Astiria
    has lived in harmony
[04:41] Cecilio
    with the people of its
    land for over a century.
[04:44] Cecilio
    Supposedly, it once fought alongside my
    ancestors to drive away an invading army.
[04:50] Cecilio
    But it's been acting strangely
    over the past year...
[04:55] Seika
    Attacking crops and cattle, yes?
[04:59] Cecilio
    It's not a serious matter right now.
[05:01] Cecilio
    But the damage is getting worse by the day.
[05:04] Seika
    First, why has the Astirian dragon lived
    in harmony with the people there until now?
[05:10] Cecilio
    I don't know the exact reasons,
[05:12] Cecilio
    but the legends say that many years ago,
[05:15] Cecilio
    it was hatched from an egg
    by the queen of Astiria.
[05:19] Seika
    A dragon, hatched by human hands?
[05:21] Cecilio
    These are just legends.
[05:23] Cecilio
    But I'd like you to
    investigate them, as well.
[05:27] Seika
    I understand, Prince.
[05:29] Cecilio
    Thank you.
[05:31] Cecilio
    I know.
[05:33] Cecilio
    Why don't we have dinner this evening?
[05:35] Lize
    Sire, restrain yourself.
[05:37] Cecilio
    I know, Lize.
[05:39] Cecilio
    I'll be going, then.
[05:41] Seika
    All right, Your Highness.
[05:49] Seika
    Ow...
[05:50] Amyu
    Quiet.
[05:52] Amyu
    Now, tell us everything.
[05:57] Amyu
    You're not going to give him Yifa, are you?
[06:01] Yifa
    No way!
[06:03] Yifa
    I mean, he sure seemed to like her...
[06:06] Yifa
    So if that's what Yifa wants...
[06:10] Mabel
    Then, she'll join his harem?
[06:12] Amyu
    What's gotten into you?
[06:14] Amyu
    There's no way she'd say that.
[06:16] Mabel
    Please don't tell her that.
[06:19] Mabel
    I think it would make her sad.
[06:21] Seika
    Why?
[06:22] Seika
    If I don't bring it up first, she might not
    be able to say she wants to go with him.
[06:26] Mabel
    Please.
[06:27] Seika
    Fine.
[06:30] Seika
    Two days later,
[06:31] Seika
    Yifa and I left the school along with
    the prince's carriage and its escorts.
[06:38] Yifa
    Are you okay, Seika?
[06:40] Yifa
    You don't feel well?
[06:41] Seika
    Yeah. I know I need to get used to it...
[06:44] Seika
    We don't get a lot of chances
    to go to other countries, though.
[06:48] Seika
    I guess I should thank the dragon.
[06:50] Yifa
    It's amazing, isn't it?
[06:51] Yifa
    A dragon, living alongside humans?
[06:54] Yifa
    Will we be able to ride on its
    back like a dragon knight?
[06:57] Seika
    That's just a fairy tale.
[06:59] Seika
    You do love those, don't you?
[07:01] Yifa
    Maybe I do.
[07:03] Yifa
    Oh, right. Prince Cecilio asked me to
    ride in his carriage before we left.
[07:09] Yifa
    He said he wanted to tell
    me all about the dragon.
[07:14] Yifa
    I wasn't sure what to say.
[07:16] Yifa
    I don't think he actually wants to
    add a girl like me to his harem.
[07:20] Seika
    No, I think he was serious...
[07:24] Yifa
    Was he? If so, that makes me a little happy.
[07:28] Seika
    I don't know what this feeling
    is, but I don't like it...
[07:30] Yifa
    You're looking kind of pale.
    Are you okay?
[07:33] Seika
    Y-Yeah...
[07:35] Seika
    It was nine days later when we reached
    the old capital of Astiria, Protoaster.
[07:43] Yifa
    We're finally here.
[07:44] Seika
    I'll never get used to carriages...
[07:50] Yifa
    This place is great.
[07:54] Seika
    It's a nice place, yeah.
[07:56] Cecilio
    Right?
[07:58] Cecilio
    But since the dragon started attacking
    things, everyone's gotten scared.
[08:02] Cecilio
    Trade has gotten more difficult.
[08:11] Cecilio
    It started to fly around
    this area a while ago.
[08:14] Seika
    It's quite sizable.
[08:16] Cecilio
    They call it a "greater dragon."
[08:26] Zekt
    Come forth from the land of the inferno.
[08:29] Cecilio
    Lava Tiger!
[08:55] Seika
    Shoot!
[08:56] Seika
    Phase of earth.
[08:57] Seika
    Spell of Transparent Fortress!
[09:01] Seika
    That armor's hotter than I thought.
[09:21] Zekt
    Stay.
[09:23] Zekt
    This thing never behaves.
[09:27] Zekt
    Calm down.
[09:29] Zekt
    That's a violation of your contract.
[09:33] Seika
    A summoner.
[09:36] Zekt
    Enough. Return.
[09:39] Zekt
    That was dangerous.
[09:41] Zekt
    You okay, Prince Cecilio?
[09:43] Cecilio
    Zekt, what were you thinking?
[09:46] Cecilio
    You almost hurt a guest from the Empire.
[09:49] Zekt
    I've got bigger things to worry about.
[09:51] Zekt
    The situation with the dragon
    changed while you were gone.
[09:55] Cecilio
    What do you mean?
[09:56] Zekt
    It's been in a very bad
    mood for the past few days.
[09:59] Zekt
    It's started to attack people.
[10:01] Zekt
    Like you just saw, right?
[10:04] Seika
    Who the hell is this guy?
[10:06] Seika
    Who's this, Prince?
[10:08] Cecilio
    Sorry. This is Zekt, the head
    of a mercenary group I hired.
[10:14] Cecilio
    Zekt, this is the emissary here to
    investigate the dragon, Seika Lamprogue.
[10:19] Cecilio
    Be on your best behavior around him.
[10:22] Zekt
    So this brat's a... Ahem, I mean...
[10:24] Zekt
    It's amazing you're an emissary at your age.
[10:29] Seika
    Why hire mercenaries?
[10:33] Cecilio
    To slay the dragon.
[10:35] Seika
    Slay it?
[10:36] Cecilio
    It's the only way to put an end to this.
[10:40] Seika
    And you think they're capable?
[10:41] Cecilio
    Yes. You saw Zekt's Lava Tiger
    drive away the dragon, right?
[10:47] Seika
    Yeah, that armor might block
    the dragon's attacks, but...
[10:53] Seika
    I think you should reconsider, Prince.
[10:56] Seika
    Their difference in size makes it impossible.
[10:58] Seika
    And the worst-case scenario
[11:00] Seika
    would be if the dragon left this realm
    and attacked another country.
[11:04] Zekt
    Hey, I've slain tons of dragons.
[11:09] Zekt
    Stay out of this, spoiled little rich kid.
[11:12] Seika
    I apologize.
[11:13] Seika
    That was certainly a close call, though.
[11:16] Seika
    I'm glad I was able to stop it.
[11:19] Zekt
    That earth magic was you?
[11:21] Zekt
    I didn't need your help
    to keep it under control.
[11:23] Seika
    Keep it under control? No.
[11:26] Seika
    Don't summon your precious little beasts
    anywhere I can see them, is what I meant.
[11:32] Seika
    I was about to blast it into ash.
[11:36] Cecilio
    Stop it!
[11:37] Cecilio
    That's enough!
[11:39] Cecilio
    Zekt, I just told you not to be rude.
[11:42] Cecilio
    Get back inside.
[11:44] Zekt
    Right, right.
[11:45] Zekt
    Let's go, men.
[11:48] Cecilio
    And you, too, Seika.
[11:51] Cecilio
    You should know better than
    to provoke a thug like that.
[11:54] Seika
    I'm sorry.
[11:55] Seika
    My servant was put in danger,
    and I couldn't help myself.
[11:58] Seika
    Now, regarding what we were discussing.
[12:00] Seika
    Have the queen and the people
    agreed to the slaying of the dragon?
[12:05] Cecilio
    Well...
[12:06] Seika
    The dragon is a symbol of this nation.
[12:09] Seika
    Without the queen or the people's approval...
[12:11] Cecilio
    Protoaster is my city.
[12:13] Cecilio
    And I have full authority over this matter.
[12:16] Cecilio
    Everyone will understand.
[12:19] Cecilio
    This is my nation's problem,
    and I'd prefer you stay out of it.
[12:23] Seika
    I've overstepped.
[12:28] Yifa
    Seika, thank you—
[12:30] Seika
    Yifa, why didn't you use your magic?
[12:34] Yifa
    I was surprised...
[12:36] Seika
    Are you going to die, then, \as soon as you get surprised?
[12:39] Seika
    I'm not going to always be there.
[12:42] Seika
    What will you do if you're
    in danger and I'm not around?
[12:47] Seika
    I thought you were smart enough
    to know this was dangerous.
[12:51] Seika
    Was I wrong to bring you?
[12:53] Yifa
    I-I'm sorry...
[12:56] Cecilio
    You don't need to be so hard on her.
[12:59] Cecilio
    It's normal to be afraid when
    a terrifying monster is around.
[13:03] Cecilio
    Yifa, you don't need to worry about it.
[13:05] Seika
    Prince, this is between Yifa and me.
[13:08] Seika
    If you need to protect yourself,
    use your magic.
[13:11] Seika
    And if you can't do that, you can
    run, or ask somebody for help.
[13:14] Seika
    But you need to take action.
[13:16] Seika
    That's the one thing you have to do.
[13:18] Seika
    Got it?
[13:19] Yifa
    Y-Yeah.
[13:22] Seika
    Let's head back to the carriage.
[13:24] Seika
    Let's go, Yifa.
[13:27] Seika
    I feel a little bad for her,
    but I don't have a choice.
[13:30] Seika
    Everybody gets too scared to move.
[13:33] Seika
    When that happens, they need a strong
    push or they'll be paralyzed.
[13:37] Seika
    In my case,
[13:38] Seika
    that was seeing the one older student
    I got along with eaten in front of my eyes.
[13:45] Seika
    I wasn't even thinking when I
    somehow managed to seal it away.
[13:47] Seika
    I still use it as a servant.
[13:50] Seika
    I don't want Yifa to go through that.
[14:01] Seika
    The next day, we decided to take a look at the
    documents about the dragon at the library.
[14:08] Yifa
    There. I think that's all the books on the list.
[14:15] Seika
    Thanks.
[14:17] Yifa
    If only I could read the
    old language like you...
[14:21] Yifa
    Where'd you learn it?
[14:23] Seika
    In the library back home.
[14:26] Seika
    Looks like something similar
    happened about 150 years ago.
[14:32] Yifa
    Yeah?
[14:32] Seika
    These books say the dragon was
    born several centuries ago.
[14:39] Seika
    The legends say it was hatched
    from an egg by the queen,
[14:43] Seika
    but it's not clear if that's true.
[14:45] Seika
    It does appear to be true that it lived
    alongside the townspeople, though.
[14:50] Seika
    At one point, another dragon came to Astiria.
[14:54] Seika
    Eventually, the dragon, who was male,
[14:56] Seika
    came to live in the mountain with
    the newly arrived female dragon.
[15:01] Seika
    Fifty years later, the two dragons changed.
[15:07] Seika
    They became wary, attacking stray cattle
[15:11] Seika
    and scaring away people who come near them.
[15:15] Yifa
    That's just like what's going on now.
[15:16] Yifa
    But why?
[15:18] Seika
    They'd given birth to children.
[15:19] Seika
    Perhaps they'd been attacking the cattle
[15:21] Seika
    because magical power alone
    isn't enough to feed them.
[15:25] Yifa
    What happened to the kids?
[15:27] Seika
    They left the nest when
    they grew up, it says.
[15:30] Seika
    And then, fifty years later,
    the female dragon died.
[15:34] Yifa
    Huh? Why?
[15:36] Seika
    The records say it was a natural death.
[15:38] Seika
    That was 100 years ago.
[15:40] Yifa
    Then maybe this time it's
    not because they had kids?
[15:45] Yifa
    There's only one dragon
    left, and it's male...
[15:51] Seika
    I'm going to climb the mountain.
[15:54] Yifa
    Th-The mountain?
[15:55] Yifa
    You don't mean the one the dragon lives on...
[15:57] Seika
    Yeah.
[15:58] Seika
    The best way to do this is to go and
    see the dragon up close, I think.
[16:03] Yifa
    I-It's dangerous!
[16:05] Yifa
    I don't think even you can beat a dragon...
[16:08] Seika
    I'm not planning on fighting it.
[16:11] Seika
    If I'm discovered, I'll just run away.
[16:13] Yifa
    R-Really?
[16:14] Yifa
    Then, I'll go, too.
[16:15] Seika
    No, you wait here.
[16:17] Seika
    It's too dangerous.
[16:19] Yifa
    You're right.
[16:32] Yifa
    Seika...
[16:34] Yifa
    Um...
[16:35] Yifa
    A maid just came and told me
    Prince Cecilio was calling for me.
[16:41] Seika
    At this hour?
[16:42] Yifa
    Wh-What do I do?
[16:44] Seika
    Oh, you don't need to go.
[16:46] Seika
    I'll talk to that dumba—to the prince.
[16:49] Yifa
    Okay...
[16:51] Yifa
    Um...
[16:52] Seika
    Are you scared to be in your room alone?
[17:00] Seika
    Yifa, you can use the bed.
[17:02] Yifa
    I-I couldn't!
[17:04] Yifa
    This bed's big enough for both of us!
[17:07] Seika
    Let's do that, then.
[17:10] Yifa
    Th-Thank you very much!
[17:21] Seika
    What do you think about Prince Cecilio?
[17:24] Yifa
    Wh-What? I don't really
    think anything about him...
[17:27] Seika
    Are you thinking about joining his harem?
[17:30] Yifa
    I-I am not.
[17:32] Yifa
    Why did you even bring it up?
[17:34] Seika
    If you're not going for my sake, it's okay.
[17:37] Seika
    You can be honest.
[17:40] Yifa
    Wh-Why?
[17:42] Yifa
    Am I that much of a bother to you?
[17:46] Yifa
    I'm sorry about yesterday...
[17:49] Yifa
    I'll learn to be able to
    use magic when I need to!
[17:52] Yifa
    A-And I'll study other languages
    so I can read them, too!
[17:57] Yifa
    S-So...
[17:58] Seika
    No, no. That's not what I meant.
[18:02] Seika
    It's not that you got in my way or anything.
[18:05] Yifa
    Really? Then, why?
[18:07] Seika
    I think it's not a bad deal for you.
[18:10] Seika
    Being invited to a royal harem is an honor.
[18:14] Yifa
    If I went to his harem,
    you wouldn't care at all?
[18:19] Seika
    I'd miss you.
[18:21] Seika
    But everybody has to choose
    their own path, eventually.
[18:27] Yifa
    I'll think about it, then.
[18:29] Yifa
    I'm going to sleep.
[18:31] Yifa
    Good night.
[18:33] Seika
    Yeah. Good night.
SIGN    Episode 8:
    Yifa's Feelings
[18:52] Yuki
    You were a little hard on her
    last night, don't you think?
[18:54] Seika
    How so?
[18:55] Yuki
    I'm starting to feel pity for the girl.
[18:59] Seika
    Why, though?
[19:00] Yuki
    I told you before that
    the slave girl likes you.
[19:07] Seika
    It's just because we grew up together...
[19:10] Yuki
    I can tell.
[19:12] Yuki
    She's been in love with
    you since she was little.
[19:25] Seika
    Prince, I'm told you tried to
    summon my servant last night.
[19:29] Seika
    Did you need something from her?
[19:32] Cecilio
    I wanted to talk to her.
[19:34] Cecilio
    She didn't take me up on my offer, though.
[19:36] Cecilio
    Would you apologize to her for me?
[19:39] Seika
    Do it yourself, please.
[19:41] Seika
    If you're serious about inviting
    her to your harem, that is.
[19:45] Seika
    What attracted you to her so much?
[19:48] Cecilio
    Her beauty... but that's not all.
[19:51] Cecilio
    She has such an air of wisdom about her!
[19:54] Cecilio
    I know the two of you are very close.
[19:58] Cecilio
    But I don't care.
[20:00] Seika
    Yifa and I don't have that
    sort of relationship.
[20:03] Cecilio
    Then, let me ask you once more.
[20:05] Cecilio
    Would you give her to me?
[20:09] Cecilio
    I'll pay as much money as you want.
[20:11] Seika
    I refuse.
[20:12] Seika
    Unless she herself wants to.
[20:15] Cecilio
    Oh...!
[20:16] Seika
    I'm going to climb the mountain
    where the dragon dwells, by the way.
[20:21] Cecilio
    That's far too dangerous, though!
[20:24] Seika
    It'll be fine.
[20:25] Cecilio
    Well, if you say so.
[20:28] Cecilio
    Just be careful...
[20:30] Seika
    I will.
[20:31] Cecilio
    If he's climbing the mountain
    it'll be days before he returns.
[20:36] Seika
    I hope he's not getting any ideas...
[20:43] Yifa
    Are you really okay going empty-handed?
[20:45] Seika
    I'm fine.
[20:46] Seika
    I'll find food.
[20:48] Yifa
    Just be really careful, okay?
[20:50] Seika
    Okay. Bye.
[22:31] Lize
    A moment of your time.
[22:34] Lize
    I want to talk to you in private.
[22:42] Lize
    This is a nice place, isn't it?
[22:46] Lize
    This place is overflowing with magical power.
[22:49] Lize
    That magical power is the reason the
    dragon's watched over this place for so long.
[22:55] Yifa
    Is that right?
[22:56] Yifa
    I don't know a lot about magic...
[23:00] Lize
    No, of course you do.
[23:02] Lize
    There are so many elementals here.
[23:04] Lize
    You don't need to try and hide it.
[23:05] Lize
    I realized instantly.
[23:08] Lize
    You are a descendant of us elves.
[23:12] Yifa
    I am?
[23:14] Lize
    The elementals must have
    brought us together.
[23:16] Lize
    Come to the Astirian harem, Yifa.
[23:20] Yifa
    I appreciate the offer, really, but...
[23:23] Lize
    Are you okay staying that
    boy's slave forever?
[23:27] Yifa
    I...
[23:31] Lize
    You must've noticed.
[23:36] Lize
    That boy is a monster.
