[00:15] Glass
    My name is Glass.
[00:17] Glass
    Feel free to consider me your enemy, hero.
[00:24] Motoyasu
    She destroyed that Soul Eater in one hit.
[00:28] Ren
    How overpowered can you be?
[00:30] Raphtalia
    I can't stop trembling.
[00:34] Naofumi
    I'm Naofumi.
[00:36] Glass
    Naofumi, is it?
[00:40] Glass
    Now, shall we begin
[00:44] Glass
    the true battle of the Wave?
SIGN    The Rising of the Shield Hero
[02:29] Glass
    Aren't you going to attack, Hero Naofumi?
SIGN    The Raven Invader
[02:33] Glass
    Why not send those servants of yours at me?
[02:37] Ren
    Servants?
[02:39] Itsuki
    Did you just call us...
[02:40] Motoyasu
    ...Naofumi's servants?
[02:41] All
    Screw you!
[02:58] Ren
    Meteor Slash!
[02:59] Motoyasu
    Meteor Thrust!
[03:01] Itsuki
    Meteor Shot!
[03:16] Glass
    Is that all you've got?
[03:21] Glass
    Zero-Stance Rondo: Reverse Four Seasons.
[03:36] Glass
    So you are but mere servants.
[03:40] Itsuki
    Sh-She's strong!
SIGN    Soul Soothing Potion—Effect: SP Recovery
[03:47] Glass
    I hope you'll entertain me a little.
[03:51] Naofumi
    Sorry, but I'm no entertainer.
[03:53] Naofumi
    Shield Prison!
[03:59] Naofumi
    Raphtalia!
[04:13] Glass
    Do you really think this feeble
    venom could put defeat me?
[04:17] Naofumi
    Filo!
[04:17] Filo
    High Quick!
[04:20] Glass
    Eight kicks in a single instant?
    How very admirable.
[04:24] Glass
    But they cannot touch me.
[04:30] Glass
    Not even worthy of mention.
[04:40] Naofumi
    Both of you, get behind me!
[04:43] Naofumi
    Shield Prison!
[04:46] Glass
    Reverse Four Seasons.
[04:58] Glass
    I'm impressed that you're still
    standing after that attack.
[05:01] Glass
    Now, when exactly do you plan on using
    that flaming shield from before?
[05:08] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama...
[05:20] Naofumi
    Come forth, Rage Shield!
[05:40] Glass
    I told you.
[05:41] Glass
    You cannot touch me.
[05:47] Raphtalia
    Filo!
[05:48] Naofumi
    Raphtalia, take care of Filo.
[06:06] Glass
    Your flame is too cold to burn me.
[06:14] Glass
    Rupture-Stance Rondo:
    Tortoise Shell Cracker.
[06:23] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama!
[06:25] Glass
    Even that isn't enough to bring you down?
[06:28] Glass
    If nothing else, I see your defense
    lives up to your title of hero.
[06:31] Naofumi
    Aw, you flatter me.
[06:34] Glass
    However, your dark flame only activates
    with close-quarter attacks.
[06:39] Glass
    Not when you attack from range.
[06:42] Glass
    You have an ace up your sleeve, do you not?
[06:45] Glass
    Don't hold it back. Show it to me.
[06:48] Naofumi
    Very well, if you insist.
[06:51] Naofumi
    Shield Prison!
[06:55] Naofumi
    Change Shield!
[06:57] Naofumi
    Iron Maiden!
[07:16] Glass
    It's even less potent than
    I thought it would be.
[07:21] Naofumi
    Wha...
[07:22] Glass
    Such a disappointment.
[07:25] Naofumi
    Is there... Is there nothing we can do?
[07:32] Glass
    The time limit?
[07:34] Glass
    I didn't expect to hit it so soon.
[07:37] Naofumi
    When I give the sign, use light magic.
[07:43] Glass
    The battle of the Wave
    will end in our victory.
[07:47] Glass
    I have nothing against you,
    but it is what it is.
[07:50] Naofumi
    Now!
[07:51] Raphtalia
    Fast Light!
[07:56] Naofumi
    Fast Heal!
[07:59] Naofumi
    Run for it!
[08:01] Glass
    Of all the futile...
[08:19] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama! She's attacking!
[08:26] Naofumi
    Air Strike Shield!
[08:49] Glass
    So I can't defeat him at this range.
[08:52] Glass
    I shall leave this time,
[08:54] Glass
    but you won't survive our next
     encounter unless you get stronger.
[08:59] Glass
    Remember that we shall be the ones
    to emerge triumphant from the Waves.
[09:20] Filo
    Is it over?
[09:29] Raphtalia
    Did we manage to get away somehow?
[09:48] Naofumi
    That countdown showed up out of nowhere.
[09:51] Naofumi
    It must've been signaling
    the end of the Wave.
[09:55] Naofumi
    But what are the Waves, anyway?
[09:58] Naofumi
    Weren't they supposed to be
    world-ending calamities?
[10:01] Naofumi
    That Glass woman was fixated
    on defeating me, a hero.
[10:06] (Flashback) Glass
    ...the true battle of the Wave?
[10:14] Naofumi
    All these questions, and no answers.
[10:17] Naofumi
    But one thing's for sure: we must grow
    much stronger by the next Wave.
[10:22] Naofumi
    If we don't, we'll die for sure.
[10:25] Naofumi
    Feeding my shield monster fragments
    will let me obtain new skills,
SIGN    Soul Eater Shield
[10:30] Naofumi
    but any concrete improvement will require
    Raphtalia and Filo to get class upgrades.
[10:36] Ake Squadman
    U-Um, Sir Hero...
[10:41] Royal Knight
    You are to report to the castle at once.
[10:45] Naofumi
    What?
[10:48] (Flashback) Naofumi
    Shield Prison!
[10:52] (Flashback) Naofumi
    Change Shield!
[10:59] (Flashback) Naofumi
    Iron Maiden!
[11:19] Aultcray
    I saw what happened through
    the crystal ball.
[11:22] Aultcray
    You did well to quell the Wave,
[11:25] Aultcray
    as much as I hate to admit it.
[11:27] Naofumi
    Is that really how you thank someone?
[11:31] (Flashback) Ake Squadman
    Please, Sir Hero!
[11:33] (Flashback) Ake Squadman
    I know how you feel,
[11:35] (Flashback) Ake Squadman
    but please go with the Captain!
[11:41] Aultcray
    I have a question for you.
[11:43] Aultcray
    How did you obtain such strength?
[11:47] Aultcray
    You possess power unbecoming
    of the Shield Hero.
[11:51] Aultcray
    It is your duty to reveal
    the secret behind it.
[11:55] Aultcray
    Now, spit it out.
    And don't you dare lie to me.
[12:02] Naofumi
    If you want to know so badly,
    kneel before me.
[12:07] Naofumi
    In my world, one grovels before the
    person they're asking for something.
[12:13] Naofumi
    And they say, "I beg you.
    Please enlighten my ignorant self."
[12:19] Aultcray
    You cur!
[12:20] Naofumi
    As I am now, I could kill you here and
    walk out the front door if I wanted.
[12:26] Aultcray
    You're bluffing.
[12:30] Naofumi
    Do any of you here want to fight me,
    the man who killed the Wave's boss monster?
[12:43] Naofumi
    I'm willing to cooperate with you until
    the Waves die down and I can go home.
[12:49] Naofumi
    So don't ever bother me again.
[12:53] Aultcray
    I'm the king! You cannot
    disrespect me this way, Shield!
[12:59] Aultcray
    I know.
[13:01] Aultcray
    I'll have your wretched slaves
    pay for your crimes, and...
[13:09] Naofumi
    Use all the dirty,
    underhanded tricks you want.
[13:13] Naofumi
    I will protect my party through it all.
[13:16] Naofumi
    You'll never take anything from me again.
[13:19] Naofumi
    I dare you to lay a finger on them.
[13:22] Naofumi
    I'll chase you to the ends of the earth
    and make you regret ever being born.
[13:33] Aultcray
    Accursed Shield!
[13:46] Shadow
    You did splendidly well
    this time, I daresay.
[13:51] Shadow
    Your efforts have become impossible
    for anyone to ignore...
[13:58] Shadow
    Including powers who don't take too
    kindly to you, Sir Shield Hero.
[14:04] Shadow
    Virtuous on the surface,
    conniving and conspiring behind the scenes...
[14:10] Shadow
    You should exercise the utmost
    caution going forward,
[14:14] Shadow
    I daresay.
[14:21] Naofumi
    "Daresay"?
[14:25] Aultcray
    Oh, Melty!
[14:27] Aultcray
    What can I do for you?
[14:30] Melty
    I heard that you spoke with
    the Shield Hero just now.
[14:36] Melty
    And also that your talk ended
    in a very hostile manner.
[14:43] Melty
    Father, if you remain at
    odds with the Shield Hero,
[14:47] Melty
    we may lose our means to fight the Waves,
    which could threaten our country's safety.
[14:52] Melty
    Please try to reconcile.
[14:55] Aultcray
    Reconcile with that swine?!
[14:58] Aultcray
    O-Oh, I'm not angry at you.
[15:01] Melty
    Why do you hate the Shield Hero so?
[15:06] Aultcray
    Well...
[15:08] Aultcray
    If I let him and the demi-humans do as
    they please, I'll yet again lose my family.
[15:14] Melty
    Father?
[15:15] Myne
    Your defiance is an affront.
[15:19] Myne
    With the queen away,
    the king's word is final.
[15:23] Myne
    And even we princesses cannot overturn it.
[15:27] Melty
    Sister...
[15:29] Myne
    Our father is the king.
[15:32] Myne
    Whether you understand
    his decisions or not,
[15:35] Myne
    they're all for the
    betterment of our country.
[15:37] Myne
    I know you're still at an age
    where you want him to baby you,
[15:42] Myne
    but you should learn to
    hold back a little, Melty.
[15:47] Myne
    Just a word of advice as your older sister.
[15:50] Melty
    I appreciate your concern,
[15:52] Melty
    but this is none of your business.
[15:57] Melty
    Just like Mother and Father, I want
    the best for our country, too.
[16:02] Melty
    And it is my job as
    crown princess to see to it.
[16:08] Myne
    Melty, you little...
[16:12] Melty
    I'll take my leave now, Father.
[16:17] Aultcray
    Melty...
[16:18] Myne
    Papa...
[16:42] Elhart
    I can't believe you actually went
    shopping for a fight with the king.
[16:45] Naofumi
    Wrong. He picked a fight with me.
[16:49] Elhart
    Man, I've got everything ya need.
    Do all your shopping here.
[16:53] Elhart
    Anyway, what are you going
    to do about class upgrades?
[16:56] Elhart
    From what you just said, I doubt they'll
    let you use the dragon hourglass here.
[17:01] Naofumi
    I was thinking of going to either
    Siltvelt or Shieldfreeden.
[17:05] Elhart
    I always figured you'd go
    to those places someday.
[17:09] Elhart
    I recommend Shieldfreeden.
[17:12] Naofumi
    The slave merchant recommended it, too.
[17:16] Naofumi
    Said it's very welcoming to humans
    for a country of demi-humans.
[17:19] Elhart
    Yeah.
[17:20] Elhart
    Over in Siltvelt, they can get pretty
    extreme about demi-human supremacy.
[17:25] Elhart
    But as the Shield Hero...
[17:27] Filo
    Master, are we going on another trip?
[17:31] Filo
    Yay!
[17:33] Elhart
    It usually takes a month by wagon,
[17:34] Filo
    Trip, trip!
[17:35] Elhart
    but our fowl lassie here should
    get you there sooner.
[17:36] Filo
    I can't wait!
[17:38] Elhart
    I'll get everything ya need
    and load it on to your wagon.
[17:42] Naofumi
    Also, I'd like a new sword for Raphtalia.
[17:45] Raphtalia
    Oh, I have a spare.
[17:47] Naofumi
    But...
[17:48] Raphtalia
    This will be another long journey.
[17:50] Raphtalia
    We should save money where we can.
[17:56] Raphtalia
    We were able to leave so quickly.
[17:58] Raphtalia
    Elhart-san always works fast, doesn't he?
[18:02] Naofumi
    Yeah.
[18:08] Elhart
    Kid,
[18:10] Elhart
    I got you some gifts for the road.
[18:13] Elhart
    Use 'em if ya like.
[18:16] Elhart
    For the kid, a shield accessory.
[18:19] Elhart
    It can analyze a shield and
    do tons of other useful stuff.
[18:24] Elhart
    For the missy, a sword.
[18:27] Elhart
    It's the same make as the one she broke.
[18:30] Elhart
    Nothing beats a trusty old friend, right?
[18:33] Elhart
    There's another for the missy.
[18:35] Elhart
    A mana sword.
[18:37] Elhart
    Use it on enemies with no physical form.
[18:43] Elhart
    If, God forbid,
[18:45] Elhart
    the fowl lassie can't draw the wagon anymore,
    this item will help.
[18:50] Elhart
    Put this on, and gain the
    strength of a hundred men!
[18:52] Elhart
    Even you could draw the wagon, kid!
[19:11] Filo
    Hod...
[19:16] Naofumi
    I love traveling.
[19:18] Naofumi
    It makes me free, shackled by no one.
[19:21] Naofumi
    I don't have to deal with royalty
    or the other heroes, either.
[19:26] Melty
    Found you!
[19:35] Filo
    Oh, Mel-chan!
[19:37] Filo
    Hey! Long time no see!
[19:38] Naofumi
    Filo!
[19:40] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama, it may not have been for long,
[19:40] Filo
    Hurry up, Mel-chan!
[19:43] Raphtalia
    but we traveled together as a party.
[19:43] ---
    Over here, over here!
[19:46] Filo
    Master...
[19:48] Filo
    Mel-chan's a good girl, y'know?
[20:00] Melty
    Sir Shield Hero,
[20:03] Melty
    I'd like you to return to the capital
    and meet with King Aultcray once more.
[20:07] Naofumi
    I refuse.
[20:12] Melty
    I want you to apologize
    for your conduct and reconcile.
[20:15] Naofumi
    I refuse!
[20:19] Melty
    We need your help to stop the Waves.
[20:23] Melty
    Also, you would be lost without
    the king's financial support.
[20:28] Naofumi
    Support?
[20:30] Naofumi
    I'm the one graciously working with
    you lot until the Waves are gone.
[20:38] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama...
[20:40] Naofumi
    She's royalty, too.
[20:43] Melty
    Why...
[20:45] Melty
    Why do both you and my father
    have to be like this?!
[20:50] Melty
    A hero and the king can't be fighting
    among themselves! Absolutely not!
[20:54] Filo
    Mel-chan?
[20:56] Melromarc
    Don't you agree, Filo-chan?
[20:58] Filo
    Er...
[20:59] Melromarc
    You agree too, don't you, Raphtalia-san?!
[21:01] Raphtalia
    W-Well, I am Naofumi-sama's sword.
[21:05] Melromarc
    See? They're agreeing with me!
[21:07] Naofumi
    Uh, they're not.
[21:09] Melromarc
    Look, just apologize to Father!
[21:12] Melromarc
    Otherwise, Mother will yell at him!
[21:16] Naofumi
    The way she throws a tantrum
    is just like her dad.
[21:19] Naofumi
    Wait... Her mother will yell at him?
[21:23] Melromarc
    Listen to me when I'm talking to you!
[21:37] Naofumi
    This feeling...
[21:39] Naofumi
    It's the same as back then.
[21:42] Naofumi
    It reeks of a setup!
[21:56] Melty
    So return to the capital—
SIGN    The Devil of the Shield
