Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) [00:15] Man     E-Enemy attack! [00:20] Man     E-Enemy attack! [00:25] Rudle's Adjutant     What's wrong? What's happening? [00:27] Man     Sir, I'll go see immediately! [00:31] E Rudle     So he's here. [00:33] Man     Protect the gate and the walls! [00:35] Man     Don't let them inside the walls! [00:40] Man     What's that sound? [00:42] Man     What's going on? SIGN    General E Rudle [02:27] E Rudle     What's the situation? [02:28] Rudle's Adjutant     We've lost part of the walls, but not much else. [02:31] E Rudle     How many are there? [02:32] Rudle's Adjutant     A few over 500, at most. [02:34] Rudle's Adjutant     We'll annihilate them immediately. [02:37] E Rudle     These are demons. [02:39] E Rudle     Be careful. [02:40] Rudle's Adjutant     Of course... [02:41] E Rudle     Gather all our forces! [02:43] Rudle's Adjutant     Yes, sir! [03:08] Ike     We'll draw the enemy's     attention until Cefiro-sama [03:11] Ike     and the wounded can escape the castle. [03:14] Ike     Just endure until then.     No matter what happens. [03:29] E Rudle     Cease fire! [03:31] Rudle's Adjutant     Cease fire! [03:32] Man     Cease fire! [03:38] Rudle's Adjutant     This is too easy. [03:40] Rudle's Adjutant     If we attack with our main forces,     it should be easy to crush them. [03:44] E Rudle     I'd rather not fight a night     battle against demons. [03:47] E Rudle     We'll take losses, too. [03:49] Rudle's Adjutant     Yes, sir. [03:50] E Rudle     This is strange, though. [03:52] E Rudle     They should be trying to     rescue the prisoners. [03:54] E Rudle     But they're barely moving. [03:57] E Rudle     Their force is too small     to penetrate our lines. [04:00] E Rudle     And they don't have enough magic     to put up a multi-layered defense. [04:03] E Rudle     Their commander is probably... [04:07] (Flashback) Cefiro     I'm sure if I killed you then, [04:10] (Flashback) Cefiro     I wouldn't find myself humiliated like this. [04:14] (Flashback) E Rudle     I've heard that one of     your men is very talented. [04:19] (Flashback) E Rudle     I'm sure he won't leave you like this. [04:25] E Rudle     Ike, the commander of the Undying Brigade. [04:28] E Rudle     What's going on with the     prisoner in the basement? [04:30] Rudle's Adjutant     We have her securely guarded, sir. [04:33] E Rudle     Just in case, call Valtel. [04:35] Rudle's Adjutant     Yes, sir. [04:37] E Rudle     He's said to be the     Demon Lord's strongest magician. [04:42] E Rudle     I can't wait to see what he does. [04:47] Guard     Don't worry. I'll watch her carefully. [04:49] Man     Yes, thank you. [04:51] Guard     Tell the general I said I'd do this. [04:54] Man     Understood. Thank you. [05:00] Guard     Your buddies are outside the walls. [05:03] Guard     Well, I can't imagine that a demon     would care for one of their fellows. [05:09] Guard     You know, you look just like a human. [05:16] Guard     I wonder how a demon woman tastes. [05:19] Lilith     Like poison, I'm sure. [05:26] Lilith     Scum. [05:28] Lilith     Go to hell. [05:38] Lilith     I apologize for making you wait, Cefiro-sama. [05:48] Ike     They aren't moving. Are they on to us? [05:50] Gunther     Is it time, Ike-dono? [05:52] Gunther     We're ready to go at any time! [05:53] Ike     Gunther-sama! Just a little more! [05:57] Ike     It's not time yet. [06:01] Ike     I've got no choice. [06:08] Rudle's Adjutant     Another attack! [06:11] E Rudle     They never learn. [06:12] E Rudle     What's the status of our forces? [06:15] Rudle's Adjutant     Our light infantry units, our archers,     and our light cavalry... [06:19] Rudle's Adjutant     are all ready to attack! [06:21] E Rudle     Excellent. I'm sure they     won't advance any further. [06:25] E Rudle     Prepare our catapults and siege crossbows! [06:27] E Rudle     Focus on fighting a battle of attrition! [06:30] E Rudle     We'll attack when they're worn     down and annihilate them! [06:33] E Rudle     I'll give the order when the time's right. [06:35] Rudle's Adjutant     Yes, sir! [06:45] Man     It's started again. [06:47] Man     They're going all out. [06:49] Man     It would be bad if they     got inside the castle. [06:51] Man     Wouldn't it be safer to kill them now? [06:57] Man     What's this? [07:00] Man     I feel weak... [07:09] Lilith     Too easy. [07:10] Lilith     The plan's going perfectly. [07:13] Fiorentina     Cefiro-sama! [07:15] Lilith     Okay, guys, time to... [07:17] Fiorentina     Cefiro-sama, I'm so glad you're safe. [07:21] Cefiro     I'm sorry for worrying you, Fiorentina. [07:25] Fiorentina     I am unworthy of such words. [07:27] Fiorentina     If anything, I'm sorry I couldn't save you. [07:30] Cefiro     Don't say that. [07:31] Lilith     Um, could you two do this later? [07:34] Lilith     We're on a tight schedule. [07:37] Fiorentina     Got it. I'll leave this to you. [07:40] Fiorentina     Now... SIGN    Did you think you could get away? SIGN    I won't let a single one of you escape! SIGN    E Rudle knows your whole plan! SIGN    If you're angry, blame your own foolishness! SIGN    Now, kill them all. [08:12] Lilith     It really happened just like Ike-sama said! SIGN    What? [08:15] Lilith     Time to regret being born a dumbass. SIGN    Wh-Who are you? SIGN    Where'd you come from? [08:28] Jiron     I'm a demon, as you can see. [08:30] Jiron     And how'd I get here? [08:32] Jiron     I walked, of course. [08:34] Jiron     Right through those crumbled castle walls. [08:36] Jiron     I did use a trick or two, though. SIGN    A trick?! [08:44] Ike     So it's time? SIGN    Those weapons... [08:55] Jiron     First row, fire! [08:58] Jiron     Second row, fire! [09:03] Jiron     Third row, fire! SIGN    Those weapons take time to load! SIGN    Now's your chance! Attack! [09:22] Lilith     Hey, don't get too crazy, guys! [09:25] Lilith     There's more work for you to do! [09:29] Cefiro     Hang in there, Fiorentina! [09:31] Cefiro     You mustn't die! [09:33] Fiorentina     Cefiro-sama... [09:35] Fiorentina     I'm sorry for failing you so many times. [09:41] Cefiro     Don't say that! I'll patch you up right now! [09:44] Cefiro     Fiorentina! SIGN    Stand fast! SIGN    We can't let them get through! [10:23] Cefiro     You're not getting away! [10:24] Lilith     Wait! [10:26] Lilith     Please, calm your anger! [10:28] Lilith     I have something to ask     of you and the orcs. [10:32] Lilith     Please, remain calm! [10:34] Cefiro     No. Move. [10:36] Lilith     I beg you... Please! [10:39] Lilith     These orders come from Ike-sama. [10:42] Lilith     Please... [10:43] Cefiro     Ike... [10:45] Jiron     I'm sorry to interrupt, but... [10:47] Jiron     Fiorentina isn't dead yet! [10:50] Jiron     I want to get her treatment     as soon as possible! [10:52] Jiron     So please, carry out the rest of the mission! [11:02] E Rudle     What? Invaders inside the walls? [11:04] Rudle's Adjutant     Impossible! [11:05] Rudle's Adjutant     The watchmen said nothing! [11:08] Rudle's Adjutant     They came out of nowhere! [11:11] Rudle's Adjutant     They just appeared from thin air. [11:13] Rudle's Adjutant     Thin air? [11:15] E Rudle     Magic. [11:20] Rudle's Adjutant     That's... [11:22] E Rudle     No... [11:29] Lilith     Destroy them! [11:49] Jiron     It's time. [11:57] Ike     Okay, it was a success! [12:00] Ike     Gunther-sama! [12:01] Gunther     Yes! Begin the mission! [12:12] Lilith     Time to get out of here, guys! [12:14] Lilith     If you don't hurry,     you'll be caught in the blasts! [12:16] Jiron     Escape through the gaps in the walls! [12:18] Jiron     Hurry! [12:22] Rudle's Adjutant     Wh-What are those? [12:25] E Rudle     A new enemy weapon? [12:27] E Rudle     All forces, fall back! [12:29] E Rudle     Fall back to the main gate! [12:31] E Rudle     Hurry! [12:32] Rudle's Adjutant     Yes, sir! [12:53] Ike     All forces, advance! [12:56] Ike     Drive them from their holes! [13:07] Man     Reporting, general! [13:09] E Rudle     What is it? [13:11] Man     An enemy attack! [13:12] Man     The enemy's launched a full-out attack! [13:14] Rudle's Adjutant     What? What do we do, General? [13:18] E Rudle     They won't even let us     establish a bridgehead. [13:21] E Rudle     They're not taking any chances. [13:24] E Rudle     All forces are to immediately retreat. [13:27] E Rudle     Did you hear me? [13:28] Rudle's Adjutant     O-Of course! [13:30] Rudle's Adjutant     All forces, retreat! [13:31] Man     All forces, retreat! [13:32] Man     All forces, retreat! [13:34] E Rudle     Ike, commander of the Undying Brigade... [13:37] E Rudle     I'll remember your name. [13:59] Satie     Here you go! [14:02] Beio     Hey, why are there humans inside the castle? [14:06] Gamos     They're Ike's forces. [14:09] Beio     The humans? [14:10] Beio     Is that true, Ike? [14:12] Ike     Yes, it's true. [14:14] Cefiro     Citizen troops from Ivalias. [14:16] Cefiro     It's thanks to them that     I'm talking to you right now. [14:21] Fiorentina     The humans saved us by using     the guns the dwarves made. [14:28] Lilith     That's right. [14:30] Lilith     Got it? [14:34] Kushana     By the way, how are your wounds, Fiorentina? [14:37] Fiorentina     I'm fine. [14:39] Fiorentina     It will take a bigger wound     than this to kill me. [14:41] Cefiro     I put you through a lot, Fiorentina. [14:45] Fiorentina     No, not at all. [14:46] Gamos     I can't believe all this     happened while we were gone. [14:50] Beio     Yeah. [14:52] Cefiro     Don't worry about it, you three. [14:54] Cefiro     I'm the one who sent you to     fight those other battles. [14:57] Jiron     Ike-sama! [15:00] Jiron     A Red Dragon Messenger sent this! [15:02] Ike     What? [15:04] Kushana     Where is this messenger? [15:06] Jiron     I-I have them waiting at the castle gate... [15:08] Beio     Okay, let's rip the bastard apart! [15:11] Ike     Now, now. Wait. [15:12] Ike     First, we'll read the letter. [15:17] E Rudle     To my dear commander of the Undying Brigade. [15:21] E Rudle     During my last battle with your forces, [15:25] E Rudle     I was defeated by your cunning     plans and quick-thinking tactics. [15:31] E Rudle     I felt compelled to put pen to paper to     give you the praise I feel you deserve. [15:36] E Rudle     I hope that, if heaven wills it,     we may fight again once more, [15:39] E Rudle     and wish you the best of health until then. [15:41] E Rudle     E Rudle, of the Red Dragon Division. [15:47] Ike     It seems this E Rudle is     quite the romanticist. [15:52] Cefiro     But that romanticist lured me into a trap, [15:56] Cefiro     and I lost many of my men. [15:59] Cefiro     The pain is unbearable. [16:00] Ike     Luck on the battlefield often     switches between sides. [16:04] Ike     There's nothing to be done about it. [16:06] Ike     And this E Rudle... [16:10] Ike     The way he trapped you, [16:13] Ike     the way he led his forces during the siege, [16:15] Ike     the speed with which he withdrew     when he knew he couldn't win... [16:19] Ike     All while keeping his main force reserved. [16:23] Ike     Without the dwarves' new weapon, [16:25] Ike     I'm not sure if we would have won the battle. [16:30] Beio     So, what did it say? [16:33] Ike     Um... "I won't lose next time.     Just you wait." Something like that. [16:37] Beio     Okay, so it's safe to     rip apart the messenger! [16:41] Ike     No. [16:42] Ike     I'm going to write a response,     so I'd prefer you didn't. [16:45] Beio     Write down that the next time     I see him, I'll rip him apart. [16:48] Lilith     He's such a brute. [16:51] Ike     To E Rudle, commander of     the Red Dragon Division. [16:55] Ike     Your words honor me far more than I deserve. [17:00] Ike     For my part, seeing the speed with which you     reacted to the tides of battle left me in awe. [17:06] Ike     As for your wish to meet     again on the field of battle, [17:10] Ike     I would prefer to meet you somewhere else. [17:15] Ike     Sincerely, Ike. [17:20] Ike     Give this to the messenger. [17:21] Jiron     Understood. [17:26] Cefiro     Another success for you. [17:28] Ike     Thank you. [17:29] Cefiro     Did you need to come save me, though? [17:33] Ike     The Demon Lord ordered me to. [17:35] Cefiro     And you didn't refuse? [17:39] Ike     I had no reason to. [17:45] Cefiro     Well, I'm sure. [17:48] Cefiro     I was the one who changed your diapers, even. [17:51] Cefiro     We've known each other for a long time. [17:53] Cefiro     I'm sure you couldn't refuse. [17:55] Lilith     Diapers? [18:08] Ike     Demon Lord! [18:11] Jiron     M-Miss, this is no place for you. [18:16] Jiron     Go play somewhere else. [18:19] Cefiro     Ignorance is a terrifying thing. [18:23] Jiron     Get out of here, Jiron! [18:26] Jiron     Just go! [18:28] Ike     Demon Lord, I'm terribly sorry! [18:30] Jiron     De— [18:31] Ike     This is Dairokuten-sama, the Demon Lord! [18:35] Jiron     B-But the Demon Lord has nine     heads and they each have a crown, [18:40] Jiron     and he has six limbs and they've all     got claws, and he's got three tails... [18:44] Ike     I'm so sorry. [18:45] Ike     This is my fault as the     one in charge of him. [18:49] Demon Lord     It's fine. [18:50] Demon Lord     Only a few demons know my face. [18:54] Demon Lord     And you were just as confused when     you saw me for the first time. [19:00] Ike     This girl is the Demon Lord?! [19:05] Jiron     Oh, I remember! [19:08] Jiron     This is the girl, Ike-sama! [19:10] Jiron     The one who saved Ivalias all on her own! [19:14] Jiron     Oh, right. [19:16] Jiron     That would be easy if she was the demon lord. [19:20] Jiron     S-Sorry! [19:22] Ike     I apologize once more! [19:25] Ike     Please forgive him! [19:27] Demon Lord     Nine heads, six limbs... [19:30] Demon Lord     Is that how my men see me? [19:35] Demon Lord     I can understand why! [19:43] Jiron     I'm so dead. [19:46] Demon Lord     Cefiro... [19:47] Cefiro     Yes? [19:48] Demon Lord     Are your wounds healed? [19:52] Cefiro     Yes, thank you. [19:53] Demon Lord     I see. [19:55] Demon Lord     You did well in this battle. [19:59] Cefiro     No, without my mistake, Alesta would     never have fallen to the enemy. [20:05] Demon Lord     But without your efforts, the reinforcements     wouldn't have arrived in time. [20:10] Demon Lord     That's why the Undying Brigade was able to     defeat the Red Dragon Division, as I see it. [20:17] Demon Lord     Now... [20:17] Demon Lord     Gamos, leader of the Troll Brigade. [20:20] Demon Lord     Beio, leader of the Werewolf Brigade. [20:22] Demon Lord     Kushana, leader of the Fanged Beast Brigade. [20:25] Demon Lord     Fiorentina, Alchemist. [20:28] Demon Lord     And Ike, leader of the Undying Brigade... [20:32] Demon Lord     The 7th Corps has done     splendidly during this war. [20:37] Demon Lord     All of you fought well, from your     commanders to the lowliest soldier. [20:42] Demon Lord     And the ones who achieved the most glory of all [20:45] Demon Lord     are the Undying Brigade     and their commander, Ike. [20:49] Demon Lord     Your deeds are worthy of great praise. [20:53] Demon Lord     Well done. [20:54] Ike     Your words honor me greatly. [20:57] Ike     Huh? Didn't this happen before? [21:00] Demon     Ike, you're not someone who can be     left in charge of a single brigade. [21:07] Demon     Therefore... [21:08] Demon     I am appointing you     commander of the 8th Corps. [22:55] Ike     All forces, advance! [22:57] Narration     The magician's name was Ike. [23:00] Narration     He served in the Demon Lord's army, [23:01] Narration     and was the grandson of     Romberg, the master magician. [23:07] Narration     One day, he would go on to bring many     races together and unite the kingdoms, [23:13] Narration     bringing peace to the world. [23:20] Narration     There are rumors that he     was a human, not a demon. [23:26] Narration     But there are no records left     that would reveal the truth.
