[00:03] Sadeena
    There's a good chance the Emperor Dragon
    has taken over Gaelion-chan's mind.
[00:08] Naofumi
    What do you mean?
[00:10] Rat
    Dragons have an organ called a
    core that contains their mind.
[00:14] Rat
    You can use it to improve your own
    abilities or inherit their memories.
[00:22] Naofumi
    Which means that the dragon zombie's mind,
[00:24] Naofumi
    which was absorbed by the
    Emperor Dragon's Core,
[00:27] Naofumi
    has caused Gaelion to lose control?
[00:30] Sadeena
    Yes.
[00:30] Wyndia
    Just like I thought...
[00:34] Naofumi
    Ake, the old lady and Rishia are out
    right now. Bring them back, quick!
[00:39] Ake Squadman
    Okay!
[00:40] Naofumi
    Rat, I want you to protect
    the village in our absence.
[00:44] Naofumi
    I'll send S'yne if you need her.
[00:46] Naofumi
    Keep an eye on the monsters
    until we get back.
[00:48] Rat
    Right. Leave it to me.
[00:50] Naofumi
    Raphtalia, Ren, Sadeena, and myself
    will head after Gaelion.
[00:55] Eclair
    Iwatani-dono!
[00:57] Eclair
    I need you to come with me now.
[00:59] Eclair
    Filo-dono suddenly collapsed in pain.
[01:01] Naofumi
    Filo?!
[01:03] Eclair
    The healers are trying to do what
    they can, but it's not helping.
[01:06] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama...
[01:07] Naofumi
    Raphtalia and I will go check on Filo.
[01:10] Naofumi
    The rest of you, get ready
    to go while we're gone.
[01:13] Ren
    Understood.
[01:14] Atla
    I'll go with you.
[01:16] Atla
    I may be able to help somehow.
[01:19] Fohl
    Me, too!
[01:20] Wyndia
    And me, too! I'm worried about Filo-chan!
[01:35] Naofumi
    Let's get going.

[03:11] Melty
    Naofumi!
[03:12] Naofumi
    Where's Filo?
[03:13] Melty
    This way! Hurry!
[03:17] Wyndia & Raphtalia
    Filo-chan!
[03:17] Wyndia & Raphtalia
    Filo!
[03:23] Filo
    Master...
[03:26] Raphtalia
    It's okay.
[03:27] Raphtalia
    I'll patch you up right away.
[03:29] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama, this is...
[03:32] Naofumi
    It's worse than what the
    Curse series did to her.
[03:40] Naofumi
    Her levels are going down?
[03:41] Naofumi
    What's going on?
[03:43] Raphtalia
    Does it have something to do
    with what happened to Gaelion?
[03:50] Atla
    I can feel a terrible power
    flowing out from within her.
[03:54] Naofumi
    Could it be that her experience points
    are being transferred to Gaelion?
[04:00] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[04:03] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama, what do we do?
[04:09] Fohl
    Atla?
[04:11] Atla
    I'll try to dampen the flow of power.
[04:21] Filo
    Huh?
[04:22] Filo
    I feel a little better.
[04:25] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[04:27] Wyndia
    I'm so glad.
[04:31] Atla
    This will buy you a little time, I think.
[04:34] Naofumi
    Thanks.
[04:36] Naofumi
    Even at this slower speed,
    she won't last two days.
[04:39] Naofumi
    She'll go down to level one.
[04:40] Naofumi
    No, we'll be lucky if it stops at level one.
[04:44] Naofumi
    She might not survive.
[04:51] Naofumi
    I want you to stay here
    and take care of Filo.
[04:55] Naofumi
    I'm going to break the curse
    that was laid on her.
[04:58] Naofumi
    Let's go, Raphtalia.
[05:00] Filo
    No, don't leave me!
[05:04] Naofumi
    You need to stay here and rest.
[05:06] Filo
    I'm the only one who can pull your carriage!
[05:09] Naofumi
    No. You're not in any shape to—
[05:11] Melty
    If Filo-chan's going, so am I!
[05:14] Naofumi
    You're a princess!
[05:15] Melty
    I may be a princess, but more
    importantly, I'm her friend!
[05:23] Naofumi
    I'm using a portal to send you back
    to town at the first sign of trouble.
[05:28] Filo
    I feel fine!
[05:31] Naofumi
    Atla, can you keep slowing down the curse?
[05:34] Atla
    Yes.
[05:35] Atla
    I'll do my best.
[05:36] Fohl
    If Atla's going, so am I.
[05:38] Wyndia
    So am I! No matter what!
[05:40] Naofumi
    Fine, fine.
[05:42] Naofumi
    Everybody, get ready.
[05:45] Naofumi
    After that, Filo raced to the village
    to the east as fast as she could.
[05:59] Naofumi
    You did great.
[06:01] Filo
    Master...
[06:03] Filo
    I'll... fight to...
[06:07] Villagers
    It's Our Savior!
[06:07] Villagers
    The Shield Hero!
[06:09] Naofumi
    Make sure Filo gets some rest.
[06:11] Atla & Melty
    Okay.
[06:17] Atla
    She's exhausted.
[06:19] Atla
    Melty-san, please help too.
[06:21] Melty
    All right!
[06:23] Melty
    Fast Aqua Heal!
[06:25] Fohl
    I-I'll... I'll go get something to eat!
[06:32] Mayor
    Oh, Shield Hero!
[06:35] Mayor
    Yet another dragon has come to our village.
[06:38] Naofumi
    Where did it go?
[06:39] Villager
    The Dragon's Den, we think.
[06:42] Naofumi
    The Dragon's Den?
[06:43] Mayor
    There's a huge cave beyond the mountain,
    where that horrible dragon lived.
[06:50] Mayor
    We won't survive another plague.
[06:54] Mayor
    Please, save our village!
[06:58] Sadeena
    We don't have time to waste here.
[07:01] Sadeena
    Let's hurry onward.
[07:02] Naofumi
    Yeah.
[07:24] Sadeena
    If we want to put an end to this,
[07:26] Sadeena
    we'll need to weaken Gaelion-chan,
[07:28] Sadeena
    and then make him spit up the
    Emperor Dragon's Core, right?
[07:31] Naofumi
    And if it's taken over his whole body?
[07:36] Sadeena
    Then we'll have a tough call to make.
[07:40] Naofumi
    I see.
[07:57] Wyndia
    Dark Fire Palette!
[08:09] Naofumi
    You can use magic?
[08:12] Wyndia
    I can fight if I have to, you know.
[08:15] Sadeena
    Oh, you didn't know?
[08:17] Sadeena
    Wyndia-chan can use the
    Way of the Dragon Vein.
[08:20] Naofumi
    What kind of magic is that?
[08:22] Sadeena
    She can take power from the Dragon
    Veins that run beneath the earth
[08:24] Sadeena
    to power her magic.
[08:26] Sadeena
    Once she masters it, she'll be able to
    use Choral Magic and Jamming Magic.
[08:31] Raphtalia
    Choral Magic, too?
[08:34] Raphtalia
    Wyndia-san, that's amazing!
[08:37] Wyndia
    Dad taught me!
[08:51] Melty
    You okay?
[08:52] Atla
    How do you feel?
[08:54] Fohl
    I got a lot of fish for you, Filo-chan!
[09:00] Filo
    Thank you...
[09:02] Filo
    I'm...
[09:04] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[09:14] Atla
    Filo-san, hang in there!
[09:17] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[09:20] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[09:37] Ren
    This is where it became
    a dragon zombie, huh?
[09:41] Ren
    When I think about the people
    who suffered because of that,
[09:44] Ren
    I feel like I can never atone.
[09:54] Naofumi
    If a hero wants to save the world,
[09:56] Naofumi
    he has to get stronger, even if
    it means sacrificing something.
[10:01] Naofumi
    Stand strong.
[10:15] Naofumi
    This is the spot, I think.
[10:18] Naofumi
    Look...
[10:22] Naofumi
    That's the Dragon's Den.
[10:36] Naofumi
    Raphtalia, can you light up the area?
[10:38] Raphtalia
    All right.
[10:40] Raphtalia
    Drifa Light!
[10:49] Naofumi
    How deep do these caves go?
[10:51] Raphtalia
    Is Gaelion really down here?
[11:03] Raphtalia
    Ren-san and Wyndia!
[11:11] Naofumi
    Ren! Wyndia!
[11:17] Ren
    We're fine.
[11:21] Ren
    You okay?
[11:23] Wyndia
    Y-Yeah...
[11:25] Ren
    I'm glad.
[11:26] Naofumi
    Air Strike Shield!
[11:32] Eclair
    Will you wait outside?
[11:34] Wyndia
    No, I'm going with you.
[11:38] Naofumi
    All right.
[11:48] Naofumi
    What is this place?
[11:51] Raphtalia
    The light can't reach all
    the way to the back.
[11:53] Wyndia
    Give me a second.
[11:58] Naofumi
    Wyndia, what are you doing?
[12:03] Wyndia
    Dragon Vein, grant me light.
[12:18] Raphtalia
    It's beautiful...
[12:20] Naofumi
    Have you been here before?
[12:23] Wyndia
    Yeah, a long time ago.
[12:29] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama!
[12:39] Naofumi
    Gaelion!
[12:40] Melty
    Stop, please!
[12:52] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[12:54] Naofumi
    What happened?
[12:55] Melty
    Filo-chan just went crazy!
[12:58] Melty
    She won't listen to anything we say!
[13:01] Naofumi
    What's gotten into her?
[13:09] Sadeena
    No!
[13:13] Melty
    No!
[13:17] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[13:20] Naofumi
    She's still there!
[13:21] Naofumi
    She's still alive!
[13:23] Nadeena
    If we can get the core back, she'll be fine!
[13:26] Naofumi
    Don't let him absorb her!
[13:27] Raphtalia
    Right!
[13:32] Ren
    Meteor Slash!
[13:35] Sadeena
    Zweit Thunderbolt!
[14:01] Fohl
    It's huge...
[14:06] Raphtalia
    I'll stop it!
[14:07] Raphtalia
    Stardust Blade!
[14:08] Ren
    Meteor Slash!
[14:13] Ren
    It's tough!
[14:16] Sadeena
    Lightning Strike Harpoon!
[14:23] Sadeena
    It is tough.
[14:24] Sadeena
    My strongest attack isn't working on it.
[14:26] Naofumi
    Then I'll use magic to make you stronger...
[14:28] Naofumi
    All Zweit Aura!
[14:36] Raphtalia
    Light Stardust Blade!
[14:42] Fohl
    It's working!
[14:45] Eclair
    Over here!
[14:57] Melty
    Give back Filo-chan!
[14:59] Melty
    Drifa Aqua Slash!
[15:11] Fohl
    We got it!
[15:19] Sadeena
    It's working!
[15:20] Sadeena
    Let's finish this!
[15:21] Wyndia
    Wait!
[15:22] Wyndia
    Everyone, wait!
[15:24] Wyndia
    Stop it...
[15:26] Wyndia
    Stop it, Dad!
[15:37] Wyndia
    Dad...
[15:38] Wyndia
    Don't fight anymore.
[15:42] Raphtalia
    What do you mean?
[15:45] Wyndia
    My dad was the dragon
    that lived in this area.
[16:05] (Flashback) Wyndia
    No! Let me go!
[16:08] (Flashback) Wyndia
    Dad!
[16:11] (Flashback) Wyndia
    Dad!
[16:17] Ren
    No... Then I was the one who...
[16:21] Naofumi
    So that's it.
[16:22] Naofumi
    He became a dragon zombie
    to try and protect her.
[16:33] Wyndia
    Ever since my dad died, I hated them.
[16:38] Wyndia
    I told myself I could never forgive the
    heroes for destroying our happiness.
[16:43] Wyndia
    But the Shield Hero was kind to me!
[16:47] Wyndia
    He's not like the people of
    this country, who mistreat demi-humans!
[16:51] Wyndia
    Or the villagers who stole your treasure
    and turned your body into a spectacle!
[16:57] Wyndia
    Please, give him back his body.
[17:01] Wyndia
    He's got the same name as you.
[17:04] Wyndia
    And he's still alive.
[17:09] Wyndia
    You can't stay here anymore!
[17:33] Naofumi
    Ren!
[17:34] Ren
    Are you hurt?
[17:36] Wyndia
    No...
[17:37] Eclair
    Are you okay?
[17:39] Wyndia
    I'm fine.
[17:40] Wyndia
    But...
[17:41] Naofumi
    Drifa Heal!
[17:44] Naofumi
    Ren, can you still fight?
[17:46] Ren
    Yeah, just barely.
[17:53] Wyndia
    Who are you? You're not my dad!
[18:01] Naofumi
    Wyndia, get back!
[18:11] Dragon
    I am the Emperor Dragon,
    ruler of all monsters!
[18:20] Naofumi
    The Emperor Dragon?
[18:22] Naofumi
    So that's it...
[18:23] Naofumi
    Combining the cores of the
    zombie dragon from this world
[18:27] Naofumi
    and the Emperor Dragon from Kizuna's
    caused their souls to mix!
[18:31] Dragon
    My desire is to seize control of
    this world from weak humans!
[18:38] Dragon
    And to kill the Hunting Hero and her comrades,
    who crushed my ambitions before!
[18:48] Atla
    Naofumi-sama!
[18:50] Atla
    An incredible amount of power is flowing
    from your shield into the Emperor Dragon.
[18:55] Naofumi
    It's fine.
[18:56] Naofumi
    Get back.
[18:58] Atla
    But...
[19:02] Atla
    All right.
[19:03] Melty
    What did you do with Filo-chan?
[19:05] Melty
    Give her back, now!
[19:07] Dragon
    You mean the monster they call
    a filolial in this world?
[19:18] Melty
    Filo-chan!
[19:19] Raphtalia
    Filo!
[19:23] Dragon
    I'm sure she's happy to
    serve as part of my flesh!
[19:32] Naofumi
    Zweit Aura!
[19:34] Naofumi
    Raphtalia!
[19:36] Raphtalia
    On it!
[19:38] Naofumi
    Air Strike Shield!
[19:40] Raphtalia
    Light Stardust Blade!
[20:00] Melty
    Drifa Aqua Slash!
[20:06] Sadeena
    This isn't working.
[20:07] Sadeena
    My attacks aren't affecting him!
[20:09] Melty
    He's nullifying my magic, too!
[20:12] Naofumi
    There's one way.
[20:14] Naofumi
    I think he's getting defense from my shield.
[20:19] Naofumi
    So if I deliberately fail a power-up attempt
    on the Wrath Shield, it should weaken him.
[20:26] Sadeena
    But won't that weaken you, too?
[20:30] Naofumi
    There's no time! Filo won't last...
[20:33] Dragon
    You think I'll let you do that?
