**[00:03] AMON**
What's that? You're leaving?
**[00:11] RUD**
Who's there?
**[00:15] RUD/ID**
*Who is this strangely imposing little girl?*
**[00:19] MARIUS**
Rud, this is bad.
**[00:25] AMON**
Hm, were more dark skeletons
supposed to spawn here?
**[00:31] RUD/ID**
* "Supposed to"? We can't handle*
* four at once right now.*
**[00:37] RUD**
A single attack...
**[00:43] MARIUS**
I wasn't expecting a demon king.
**[00:46] RUD**
A demon king?
**[00:48] AMON**
I thought I'd removed those
dark skeleton spawn points.
**[00:54] RUD/ID**
*Is this girl the labyrinth's guardian?*
**[00:58] AMON**
Submit to my Evil Eye!

A Tank with a Rare 9,999 Resistance Skill
Got Kicked from the Hero's Party
**[02:35] RUD/ID**
* What is this tidal wave of mana?*
* But it'll take more than that to stop us.*
**[02:42] AMON**
You aren't afflicted with status effects
after being struck by that attack?
**[02:48] AMON**
Divine Skills are quite a nuisance.
**[02:50] RUD**
Are you the guardian of the labyrinth?
**[02:52] AMON**
Indeed I am. Are you not
the slightest bit afraid of me?
**[02:58] RUD**
Well, you *do* look like
an adorable little girl.
**[03:03] AMON**
"Adorable," huh?
I appreciate the compliment.
**[03:06] MARIUS**
Don't be fooled, Rud.
This hag's over 300 years old.

**[03:11] AMON**
Keep your mouth shut, Marius!
**[03:14] AMON**
You failure of a demon king!
**[03:17] RUD**
Marius is my friend.
**[03:19] RUD**
Could you please not attack him?
**[03:22] AMON**
I see. So the failure has
allied himself with humans, huh?
**[03:28] MARIUS**
Not really. I just hate demon kings.
**[03:34] AMON**
Ah, I see, I see.
**[03:37] AMON**
But you should stay out of my way,
Demon King Marius.
**[03:41] AMON**
You know you don't
stand a chance against us.
**[03:46] RUD**
Maybe Marius can't beat you alone,
**[03:50] RUD**
but you're facing more
than just him right now.
**[03:55] AMON**
What's your point?
**[03:57] AMON**
Your individual strength still
doesn't compare to a demon king's.
**[04:02] RUD**
Individual humans
aren't particularly strong.
**[04:06] RUD**
We can't raid dungeons alone.
**[04:08] RUD**
That's why we form parties.
**[04:11] AMON**
Raiding dungeons, huh?
**[04:13] AMON**
Let's see if you can do that when faced with
Amon Sloth, the Keild Labyrinth's guardian,
**[04:23] AMON**
foolish humans!
**[04:26] LUNA**
Her mana is tremendous.
**[04:28] RUD**
We have no choice but to fight.
**[04:31] RUD**
Shield of Sacrifice!
**[04:34] RUD**
Provoke!
**[04:40] RUD**
What power.
**[04:47] LILY**
You'll pay for hurting my sister.
**[04:50] NIN**
She used a whirlwind
to deflect their attacks.
**[04:52] RUD**
Even if I use Provoke, she doesn't
focus all of her attention on me.
**[04:57] AMON**
I see. You're not bad, but you won't
be able to reach me with those attacks.
**[05:02] RUD**
Then, we'll keep attacking until we do!
**[05:04] AMON**
I can easily evade
such attacks with wind magic—
**[05:07] NIN**
Quit floating around up there!
**[05:10] AMON**
Ow!
**[05:12] AMON**
You're a noisy woman.
**[05:19] LILIA**
She's ridiculously strong.
**[05:21] MARIUS**
How are we going to beat her?
**[05:24] RUD**
It's all right. We can keep up.
**[05:26] AMON**
Is that all you've got?
**[05:28] RUD**
Provoke!
**[05:30] AMON**
What's wrong?
**[05:32] AMON**
You can't touch me with
such haphazard attacks.
**[05:36] RUD**
They're not haphazard.
**[05:39] RUD**
Flashing magic stone!
**[05:42] AMON**
What is this? It's so bright.
**[05:49] MARIUS**
How was that?
**[05:54] RUD**
What is this?
**[05:56] RUD**
Is the mana flowing out of her
whipping up a storm?
**[05:59] AMON**
I've ever so slightly underestimated you.
**[06:02] AMON**
I apologize.
**[06:08] RUD**
Nin, heal us.
**[06:10] NIN**
Got it.
**[06:11] NIN**
Come over here, everyone.
I'll cast support magic on you all.
**[06:14] NIN**
She's far stronger than
any monster we've faced so far.
**[06:19] RUD**
Yeah.
**[06:21] LILIA**
But if we work together,
we can defeat her.
**[06:25] LUNA**
I'll fight for my master and Ms. Manicia.
**[06:28] LILY**
Me, too.
**[06:30] NIN**
Naturally, so will I.
**[06:31] MARIUS**
Me, too. This is a unique opportunity
to defeat a demon king.
**[06:37] RUD**
Okay. We'll attack once the storm dies down.
**[06:48] NIN**
A w-wolf?
**[06:49] RUD**
It looks like a fenrir.
**[06:57] RUD**
Marius, can you transform
into a monster and fight, too?
**[06:59] MARIUS**
Sure. If you don't mind me
attacking friend and foe alike.
**[07:02] RUD**
In that case, I prefer you
in your current form.
**[07:08] RUD/ID**
* This will allow me to reduce the number*
* of attacks aimed at our attackers.*
**[07:17] RUD/ID**
* The question is, how long can I last*
* against this massive monster?*
**[07:25] MARIUS**
We've barely scratched it.
**[07:27] LILIA**
Its fur is as tough as armor.
**[07:30] RUD**
Eyes on me!
**[07:33] RUD/ID**
*I'm screwed if it sinks those fangs into me.*
**[07:36] RUD/ID**
*But its attack pattern lacks variety.*
**[07:39] RUD/ID**
* The repeated hits are*
* eating away my absorb shield.*
**[07:41] LILY**
Long-range spells incoming!
**[07:49] LILY**
They don't seem very effective.
**[07:51] RUD**
We're prepared for a long fight
against the guardian.
**[07:57] RUD/ID**
*Its attacks have gotten even stronger?*
**[08:00] RUD/ID**
*Damn. I could really use a breather.*
**[08:05] MARIUS**
Sorry, Rud.
**[08:06] MARIUS**
It took some time to
build up power for an attack.
**[08:09] RUD**
No problem. That was great.
**[08:11] RUD/ID**
*He cut through its armor-like fur.*
**[08:13] RUD/ID**
*Nice work, Marius.*
**[08:20] NIN**
Its roar is deafening.
**[08:22] NIN**
Rud, I'm going to cast a status effect
nullifying spell on you three, just in case.
**[08:27] NIN**
I can't heal you while
it's active, so be careful.
**[08:30] RUD**
Got it.
**[08:35] MARIUS**
Rud, are you okay?
**[08:37] RUD**
Yeah. My absorb shield is holding.
**[08:40] RUD/ID**
* As long as I remain standing,*
* my party mates can't lose.*
**[08:44] RUD/ID**
*I need to hang on.*
**[08:53] RUD/ID**
*We'll overcome the enemy!*
**[09:09] RUD**
Provoke!
**[09:12] RUD/ID**
*It's tough, but its movements have slowed.*
**[09:18] RUD**
What's that?
**[09:20] NIN**
What *is* that green wind?
**[09:22] MARIUS**
Don't know, don't care.
**[09:24] MARIUS**
I'll cut it all!
**[09:28] RUD**
Marius!
**[09:29] NIN**
Judging by that attack, it looks like it's
a barrier that cuts anyone who gets close.
**[09:36] RUD**
That stone on its forehead...
**[09:38] RUD**
It wasn't glimmering like that
until it activated the barrier.
**[09:41] RUD**
If we can destroy that,
we may be able to defeat it.
**[09:44] MARIUS**
But that wind is keeping us at bay.
**[09:47] LILY**
Nin, cast a dispelling spell.
**[09:49] LILY**
We'll follow up by attacking all at once.
**[09:52] NIN**
Got it.
**[09:53] NIN**
Power of darkness from
which holy light originates...
**[09:57] RUD**
Let's buy her time.
**[10:04] NIN**
Quell the white waves
amidst invisible luster...
**[10:07] RUD/ID**
* The rushing wind is*
* making it difficult to breathe.*
**[10:12] RUD/ID**
* Even just standing here,*
* the wind's constantly slashing at me.*
**[10:16] RUD/ID**
*It's unbearable.*
**[10:17] NIN**
Disappear into silence
with brilliant benevolence.
**[10:19] RUD/ID**
*But I must endure it.*
**[10:21] RUD/ID**
* If I focus on defending and*
* keep weathering its attacks…*
**[10:26] RUD**
It won't let us get close.
**[10:28] NIN**
Become powerless!
**[10:31] NIN**
Cease your meaningless struggling!
**[10:36] NIN**
I've dispelled the wind wall.
Now's our chance to destroy it!
**[10:40] MARIUS**
Got it.
**[10:43] LUNA**
You won't get away!
**[10:47] RUD/ID**
* It blocked our attacks against its magic*
* stone, but that left its chest open.*
**[10:53] MARIUS**
Go, Rud!
**[10:55] RUD/ID**
* It's dealt nearly 30,000 damage*
* to my absorb shield so far.*
**[10:59] RUD**
Take this!
**[11:01] RUD**
Life Conversion!
**[11:06] RUD**
What's that?
**[11:09] RUD**
That's not its armor.
**[11:12] RUD**
It's an offensive wind spell!
**[11:14] RUD**
Get back, everyone!
**[11:18] RUD/ID**
*Crap.*
**[11:21] NIN**
His absorb shield...
**[11:25] NIN**
Rud!
**[11:29] RUD/ID**
*Endure it. Endure it, endure it!*
**[11:34] RUD/ID**
* If I lose my absorb shield*
* and suffer a serious injury now...*
**[11:39] RUD/ID**
*I'll die.*
**[11:46] NIN**
Rud! Rud!
**[11:51] RUD**
It stopped.
**[11:53] NIN**
Rud, are you okay?
**[11:55] RUD**
Yeah, barely.
**[11:57] LILY**
Sister!
**[12:00] RUD**
Marius!
**[12:00] NIN**
Lilia!
**[12:02] RUD**
Hang in there, you two.
**[12:05] MARIUS**
Rud?
**[12:07] RUD**
Good. They're both alive.
**[12:16] RUD**
Luna and Nin, heal them. If it launches
another attack now, they're dead.
**[12:22] NIN**
But your absorb shield has been
shattered! It's too dangerous!
**[12:25] RUD**
I can still use my skills without an
absorb shield. I can keep fighting.
**[12:28] RUD**
Besides, I'm the only one who can stop it.
**[12:31] NIN**
Fine. Luna, Lily.
**[12:35] RUD/ID**
* I'm the one who selfishly insisted*
* we come here, anyway.*
**[12:39] RUD/ID**
*I made them come with me.*
**[12:41] RUD/ID**
*I have to fix this.*
**[12:48] RUD/ID**
* Now that my absorb shield's gone,*
* it hurts so much. It's going to crush me.*
**[12:54] RUD/ID**
*A-A wind spell?*
**[12:57] RUD/ID**
*It's not casting?*
**[13:01] RUD/ID**
*No, it can't.*
**[13:05] RUD/ID**
*It's in bad shape.*
**[13:07] RUD/ID**
*So we almost had it.*
**[13:10] RUD**
I hate to say it, but we have to retreat.
**[13:13] LILY**
We can keep fighting.
**[13:15] LILY**
Nin and Luna, prepare to cast spells.
**[13:19] LILY**
I'm going to switch to
fighting as an attacker.
**[13:23] NIN**
Lily, what are you saying?
**[13:25] LILY**
I'll use my Fusion skill
to take my sister's place.
**[13:29] LILY**
Given how weak it is,
we must be close to beating it.
**[13:31] RUD**
But—
**[13:32] LILY**
Rud, didn't you say
you'd listen to my requests?
**[13:36] LILY**
I can keep fighting!
**[13:39] RUD**
You're one crazy girl.
**[13:42] RUD**
All right. I'll keep tanking.
**[13:44] LUNA**
I'll keep fighting, too.
**[13:46] NIN**
Hit it with everything you've got.
**[13:49] LILY**
Right.
**[13:52] RUD/ID**
* I didn't think losing my absorb shield*
* would make me this weak.*
**[13:57] RUD/ID**
*But I need to buy time.*
**[14:04] NIN**
Rud!
**[14:05] RUD**
Sorry, Nin. Lily, are you ready?
**[14:10] LILIALY**
Here I come.
**[14:16] LILIALY**
More.
**[14:24] LILIALY**
Rud!
**[14:26] RUD/ID**
* She's about as quick as*
* when Lilia takes the lead,*
**[14:30] RUD/ID**
* but unlike Lilia, her movements*
* are too flat and predictable.*
**[14:34] LILIALY**
I'm sorry. I don't know how
to use this body yet.
**[14:39] RUD**
Then, fight like you always do.
**[14:43] RUD**
Lilia's unconscious right now. You don't
need to give her any consideration.
**[14:48] RUD**
Fight your way, Lily.
**[14:51] LILIALY**
My way?
**[14:53] RUD**
I'll buy time until you get used to it,
so take your time preparing.
**[14:59] LILIALY**
Got it.
**[15:01] RUD/ID**
*The truth is, we don't have that much time.*
**[15:07] RUD/ID**
* But my friend is fighting*
* her hardest so she can change.*
**[15:10] RUD/ID**
* So as her friend,*
* I should match her energy.*
**[15:16] LILIALY**
Rud!
**[15:17] RUD/ID**
* Damn. In my current state,*
* it's tough for me to buy time as a tank.*
**[15:22] RUD/ID**
*I feel like I might black out any second.*
**[15:26] RUD/ID**
*No, I'm just making excuses.*
**[15:29] RUD/ID**
* No matter the circumstances,*
* I must protect my friends.*
**[15:35] RUD/ID**
* Marius used his mana*
* like an absorb shield.*
**[15:38] RUD/ID**
* If I can do that,*
* I may be able to keep fighting.*
**[15:42] NIN**
Rud, it's heading your way!
**[15:47] RUD/ID**
*That was sloppy, but it worked.*
**[15:49] RUD/ID**
*Still, that wasn't enough.*
**[15:53] RUD/ID**
*I need to utilize all the mana in my body.*
**[15:59] RUD/ID**
* My body's moving like it does*
* when I have an absorb shield.*
**[16:02] RUD/ID**
*The pain in my arm is lessening, too.*
**[16:05] RUD/ID**
*So that's how it works.*
**[16:08] RUD/ID**
*Its attacks have quickened. Is it in a hurry?*
**[16:12] RUD/ID**
*I'll unleash even more mana than before.*
**[16:16] RUD/ID**
* I can move exactly as I do*
* when I have an absorb shield.*
**[16:21] RUD**
Time to counterattack.
**[16:24] RUD**
Lily, now!
**[16:26] LILIALY**
This isn't my sister's style.
**[16:28] LILIALY**
This is how *I* fight!
**[16:34] RUD**
What power.
**[16:37] RUD**
She imbued her sword
with multiple elements.
**[16:42] LILIALY**
This is the end.
**[16:45] RUD**
She's going to hit it with
all four elements at once?
**[17:08] RUD**
Lily, are you okay?
**[17:10] LILIALY**
Yes. Thank you, Rud.
**[17:14] RUD**
I should be thanking you.
Because of you, we won.
**[17:18] LILIALY**
It wasn't just me.
**[17:27] RUD**
Rest for now.
**[17:29] RUD**
Amon, do you still intend to fight?
**[17:33] AMON**
I can't move a muscle.
**[17:35] AMON**
That was impressive.
I didn't think you could beat me.
**[17:40] RUD**
I'm searching for magic stones
that grant wishes. Sound familiar?
**[17:46] AMON**
There. Take it.
**[17:47] RUD**
Whoops.
**[17:50] RUD**
Thanks.
**[17:51] AMON**
I didn't expect to be thanked
by someone I just fought.
**[17:56] AMON**
Are you not going to finish me off?
**[17:58] AMON**
Ah, are you enjoying watching
a pretty young girl suffer?
**[18:04] RUD**
You called yourself "a" demon king.
Does that mean there are others?
**[18:09] AMON**
Yes, though I don't know exactly how many.
**[18:13] RUD**
What is their goal?
**[18:15] AMON**
The demon kings are playing a game...
**[18:20] AMON**
to see if they can destroy this world.
**[18:29] RUD**
And what's your goal?
**[18:32] RUD**
Do you oppose humans as a demon king?
**[18:34] RUD**
Or do you simply wish to
fight powerful opponents?
**[18:38] AMON**
Seems you have something to say.
**[18:40] RUD**
Yeah.
**[18:41] AMON**
Out with it, then.
**[18:44] RUD**
Will you help us?
**[18:46] AMON**
What?
**[18:48] RUD**
If demon kings are going to keep bothering us,
then I want allies to help me to fight them.
**[18:54] AMON**
In that case, why not put a Slave's Armband
on me and force me to obey you?
**[18:58] RUD**
I don't want to force anyone to do anything.
That's why I'm asking.
**[19:03] AMON**
You're an amusing fellow.
**[19:07] AMON**
Well, it's not as though I'm *particularly*
attached to being a demon king.
**[19:11] AMON**
In fact, if you're welcoming me
into your ranks...
**[19:15] AMON**
then I'll gladly become your ally.
**[19:20] RUD**
Thanks.
**[19:22] RUD**
For now, let's return to—
**[19:24] RUD**
What?
**[19:25] AMON**
I'm tired and can't walk anymore.
I want you to carry me.
**[19:30] RUD**
Uh, what?
**[19:30] SIGN**
Uh, what?
**[19:31] SIGN**
Uh, what?
**[19:31] RUD/ID**
* And that's how we successfully recruited*
* Amon Sloth, Keild Labyrinth's guardian.*
**[19:38] RUD/ID**
* And then, at the clans' ball*
* that was held later...*
**[19:44] RUD**
Our clan has conquered
the Keild Labyrinth.
**[19:47] GUEST A**
This is a map of the 51st floor.
**[19:49] GUEST B**
You're joking.
**[19:50] RUD**
In exchange for this map
and information,
**[19:53] RUD**
we request an alliance
with both your clans.
**[19:56] RUD/ID**
*...I declared our intent.*
**[19:58] RUD/ID**
* Naturally, I didn't mention that we'd*
* recruited the guardian this time either.*
**[20:03] RUD/ID**
* Having formed an alliance with the two*
* major clans, we decided to return to Avancia.*
**[20:09] RUD/ID**
*I miss Manicia.*
**[20:12] LILY**
Rud.
**[20:14] LILY**
Rud.
**[20:15] RUD**
Li—
**[20:17] LILY**
Be quiet, or you'll wake the others.
**[20:21] LILY**
Thank you for your actions
during that battle in the labyrinth.
**[20:24] RUD**
Sure. But like I said, we won because of you.
**[20:29] LILY**
We won because of all of us.
**[20:31] LILY**
But I was able to fight because of you, Rud.
**[20:37] LILY**
Thank you.
**[20:39] LILY**
I'm going to sleep now.
**[20:43] RUD/ID**
*Wh-What was that just now?*
**[20:45] RUD/ID**
*Wait, she's asleep already?*
**[20:47] RUD/ID**
* Uh, I'll ask her what that was*
* about later. For now, I'll sleep.*
**[20:52] LILIA**
Rud.
**[20:54] RUD/ID**
*Lilia! Did she see what just happened?*
**[20:57] LILIA**
Thanks for helping me during
that battle in the labyrinth.
**[21:00] LILIA**
I heard your voice.
**[21:03] LILIA**
That's all.
**[21:05] RUD**
Uh, sure.
**[21:09] RUD/N**
* When we arrived back in Avancia,*
* we immediately went to see Manicia.*
**[21:14] RUD**
Manicia, use this.
**[21:16] RUD**
How do you feel?
**[21:18] MANICIA**
My body feels much lighter.
**[21:22] MANICIA**
Ms. Amon, thank you.
**[21:25] AMON**
What?
**[21:26] MANICIA**
I don't have much to offer you,
**[21:30] MANICIA**
but I'll cook your meals and
serve you a 3PM snack every day.
**[21:34] MANICIA**
So while you're staying here,
please eat as much as you want.
**[21:40] AMON**
I like how that sounds coming
from a cute little human like you.
**[21:45] AMON**
And the snacks are good.
**[21:48] AMON**
Perhaps I'll stick around
this town for a while.
