[00:20] (Flashback) Basara
    Maria, you wait here.
[00:23] (Flashback) Maria
    But—
[00:24] (Flashback) Basara
    I promise.
[00:25] (Flashback) Basara
    You, your mother, Mio...
[00:28] (Flashback) Basara
    I promise I'll save you all!
[00:33] Maria
    Basara-san!
SIGN    Espionage... What Lies After
[02:16] Yuki
    Basara...
[02:18] Zolgia
    Did Jin Toujou throw away his
    title as the greatest Hero
[02:23] Zolgia
    for a son of this mere caliber?
[02:27] Zolgia
    Hmph. The man once heralded as a war god
[02:30] ---
    has fallen into a pathetic state.
[02:35] Zolgia
    I'll claim your power for myself,
[02:39] Zolgia
    just as I shall take Wilbert's
    power from Naruse Mio.
[02:42] Mio
    Stop...
[02:50] Zolgia
    Oh? You forced yourself
    free of mental bondage?
[02:54] Zolgia
    Was it that difficult for you to bear
    becoming a burden on your father?
[02:59] Basara
    I might not be anything special,
[03:01] Basara
    but I won't forgive you
    speaking ill of my father!
[03:11] Zolgia
    You certainly are fast for a human.
[03:14] Zolgia
    However...
[03:16] (Flashback) Jin
    The people she thought of as
    her parents were murdered.
[03:20] (Flashback) Takigawa
    Apparently her mother has been captured.
[03:23] (Flashback) Jin
    I know you can do it.
    After all, you're my proud son.
[03:31] Zolgia
    Didn't your father ever teach you?
[03:34] Zolgia
    This...
[03:36] Zolgia
    is how you use a sword!
[03:39] Zolgia
    You're the epitome of pathetic.
[03:45] Mio
    Look out!
[03:51] Zolgia
    Taste the flames of Hell.
[03:56] Basara
    Banishing Shift!
[04:03] Yuki
    Basara!
[04:12] Zolgia
    You dispersed my flames?
[04:14] Zolgia
    Good.
[04:15] Zolgia
    With that skill and
    Wilbert's power in hand,
[04:19] Zolgia
    I'll become the new ruler of the demon realm.
[04:23] Basara
    Like hell!
[04:30] Zolgia
    Hmph, your final desperate struggles?
[04:35] Basara
    I can do this!
[04:49] Zolgia
    Though you made only a scratch,
[04:50] Zolgia
    I praise you for wounding my body.
[04:53] Mio
    Basara!
[04:56] Zolgia
    However,
[05:01] Zolgia
    this is the end.
[05:03] Yuki
    Basara! Basara!
[05:05] Mio
    Basara!
[05:15] Zolgia
    Oh? You still stand?
[05:20] Zolgia
    Good eyes.
[05:21] ---
    Show me how those eyes look
    when tainted with despair.
[05:28] Basara
    This is probably the last time
[05:30] Basara
    I'll be able to swing my sword well.
[05:32] Basara
    If there's a moment when I can catch him,
[05:35] Basara
    it will be the second he attacks.
[05:53] Zolgia
    That's it. That's the look I wanted to see.
[06:04] Yuki
    Basara!
[06:05] Mio
    Basara!
[06:08] Zolgia
    Here's your parting gift for the afterlife...
[06:10] Zolgia
    Meet your final end enraptured
    in dreams of bliss.
[06:26] Zolgia
    Maria seems to have failed,
    but rest assured...
[06:30] Zolgia
    That just means your mind
    will fall under my dominion.
[06:40] Mio
    Basara...
[06:45] Basara
    Mio?!
[06:52] Mio
    Onii-chan.
[06:56] Maria
    Basara-san...
[06:57] Basara
    Maria...
[07:01] Maria
    Basara-san...
[07:04] Yuki
    Look at me, too... Basara.
[07:11] Kurumi
    Basara-niichan... Does this feel good?
[07:28] Yuki
    No! Don't give in, Basara!
[07:31] Mio
    Basara! Basara!
[07:38] Zolgia
    Oh? You still have the will to resist?
[07:46] Zolgia
    I knew you'd come.
[07:47] Zolgia
    The brat was bait, and my
    real opponent is you, Maria?
[07:54] Maria
    No. I made this decision on my own.
[07:57] Mio
    Maria... is that you?
[08:04] Maria
    Mio-sama and I are the ones who
    have bones to pick with you, after all!
[08:09] Zolgia
    That form of yours is beautiful,
    as I thought it would be.
[08:11] Zolgia
    Though you insisted that it
    could be used only once,
[08:14] Zolgia
    and hid it from me.
[08:16] Maria
    Because I would rather die
    than tend to you in bed.
[08:20] Zolgia
    An impressive sense of virtue.
[08:23] Zolgia
    Did you want to at least become a
    woman when you conquered that brat?
[08:27] Maria
    I don't have any right
    to long for that anymore.
[08:33] Maria
    I'm doing this to stop Basara-san
    from being reckless...
[08:36] Maria
    and to kill you!
[08:38] Zolgia
    Impressive confidence,
[08:40] Zolgia
    but you can maintain that
    state only a few minutes longer.
[08:43] Zolgia
    And you haven't forgotten, have you?
[08:48] Maria
    Mother!
[08:50] Zolgia
    I'll let you choose.
[08:51] Zolgia
    Become mine alongside Naruse
    Mio and that girl there,
[08:56] Zolgia
    or let your mother die after she betrayed
    her comrades in the moderate faction to save you.
[09:02] Maria
    I refuse both!
[09:05] Zolgia
    I expected that would be your answer.
[09:07] Maria
    Huh?
[09:08] Zolgia
    The footage I just showed
     you was from earlier.
[09:14] Zolgia
    My finger snap just now
    was the activation key
[09:16] Zolgia
    to the super electromagnetic
    device in her cell.
[09:20] Maria
    M-Mother... why?!
[09:23] Zolgia
    Unfortunately for you,
[09:24] Zolgia
    I'm not soft enough to forgive betrayal.
[09:28] Zolgia
    But don't worry.
[09:30] Zolgia
    Though her death looks horrid,
[09:32] Zolgia
    she didn't have time to suffer.
[09:35] Zolgia
    Her body split from the inside out in a moment.
[09:49] Yuki
    How much must you toy
    with the hearts of others?!
[09:58] Mio
    Father... Mother...
[10:02] Yuki
    No! Calm down, Mio!
[10:16] Yuki
    Is that Wilbert's—
[10:18] Maria
    You mustn't! Mio-sama!
[10:26] Zolgia
    Wonderful.
[10:34] Maria
    An anti-magic field?!
[10:42] Zolgia
    I'm surprised it went
    as perfectly as planned.
[10:45] Maria
    You showed that footage
    to Mio-sama on purpose!
[10:48] Zolgia
    The trigger for activating the
    power sleeping inside Naruse Mio
[10:52] ---
    is her trauma...
[10:54] Zolgia
    In other words, I only need remind
    her of her foster parents' deaths.
[11:06] Zolgia
    Hmph. Don't make me waste
    any more magic power.
[11:11] Zolgia
    As expected from Demon Lord Wilbert's power.
[11:14] Zolgia
    I used most of my magic
    power just containing it,
[11:18] Zolgia
    but now I have the chance to seize it.
[11:23] Zolgia
    Good grief, you gave me a hard time.
[11:26] Zolgia
    Now, let me see a bit more of yourself.
[11:37] Zolgia
    H-How?!
[11:42] Zolgia
    This isn't Wilbert's power!
[11:45] Zolgia
    I see! This is this girl's own, natural—
[11:53] Zolgia
    Listen well, if you kill me...
[11:59] Mio
    I don't care what happens.
[12:02] Mio
    I've lived my life for this moment.
[12:07] Zolgia
    S-Stop!
[12:11] Basara
    No! Mio!
[12:14] Basara
    Stop it.
[12:15] Basara
    You shouldn't kill him.
[12:17] Mio
    He killed them! My father and my mother!
[12:21] Mio
    Before my very eyes!
[12:23] Basara
    Yes.
[12:23] Mio
    I lived to get revenge!
    I lived to kill this man!
[12:28] Basara
    I know.
[12:29] Mio
    If you know, then how can
    you tell me not to kill him?
[12:35] Basara
    Because I don't want your future to be bound.
[12:40] Yuki
    Basara...
[12:42] Basara
    Mio, what comes after revenge
    is a moment's release,
[12:46] Basara
    and an eternity of despair.
[12:48] Basara
    There's no need for you to suffer
    bearing his life for the rest of yours.
[12:53] Mio
    Then order me!
[12:56] Mio
    As the Master in our pact,
[12:58] Mio
    order your subordinate not
    to kill him! To give up!
[13:01] Mio
    Order me to!
[13:03] Mio
    Then I'll obey you...
[13:05] Mio
    I'll listen to you, my older brother.
[13:10] Basara
    If I do that, then we'll
    never be siblings again.
[13:15] Basara
    We'll never be family again.
[13:19] Basara
    I promised my father.
[13:22] Basara
    That as family, as your
    older brother, and as a man,
[13:26] Basara
    I would protect you!
[13:30] Basara
    I'll protect you from your hatred at
    having your parents stolen from you,
[13:34] Basara
    and your regret at letting him go...
[13:38] Basara
    Please. Mio.
[13:52] Maria
    Zolgia's—
[13:53] Yuki
    You won't escape!
[13:54] Basara
    There's no need for that, Yuki.
[13:56] Yuki
    But...
[13:57] Basara
    It's all right.
[13:59] Shella
    Maria!
[14:02] Maria
    M-Mother?!
[14:06] Basara
    "Mother"?
[14:08] Shella
    You're safe, Maria! I'm so glad!
[14:11] Maria
    How?
[14:12] Basara
    Thanks to our accomplice.
[14:14] Maria
    Accomplice?
[14:22] Zolgia
    Curse you!
[14:23] Zolgia
    How dare you take my arm!
[14:25] Lars
    My, my, it's been a long
    time, Marquis Zolgia.
[14:29] Zolgia
    Lars! You... Why are you?
[14:32] Lars
    Oh? Did you forget that I'm a puppeteer?
[14:36] Zolgia
    So Zest only killed one of your dummies?
[14:40] Zolgia
    What a useless woman.
[14:42] Lars
    You're not in a position to
    talk either, Your Excellency.
[14:44] Zolgia
    What?
[14:45] Lars
    I mean, Zest wasn't the only one
    to fall for one of my dummies.
[14:50] Zolgia
    What? You mean—
[14:52] (Flashback) Lars
    A super electromagnetic device, huh?
[14:55] (Flashback) ---
    What bad taste.
[14:56] (Flashback) Shella
    Lars? Why are you here?
[15:06] (Flashback) Lars
    There are several traps
    placed together, but...
[15:09] (Flashback) Lars
    This is all?
[15:11] (Flashback) Lars
    He must have been quite confident that
    this place wouldn't be discovered.
[15:17] (Flashback) Lars
    Please hurry and get out of here.
[15:19] (Flashback) Lars
    Unless you want to be fried in a microwave.
[15:22] Zolgia
    So you're saying the Shella I
    killed was another dummy you made?
[15:27] Lars
    It was one of the conditions in the deal
[15:29] Lars
    that I made with Toujou Basara.
[15:31] Zolgia
    What?!
[15:38] (Flashback) Basara
    Takigawa, tell me what reward
     you'd expect for your help.
[15:44] (Flashback) Takigawa
    Reward?
[15:45] (Flashback) Basara
    I'll see to it, no matter what.
[15:50] (Flashback) Takigawa
    I see. I guess that's an option, too.
[15:52] (Flashback) Takigawa
    But can you honestly do it?
[15:55] (Flashback) Takigawa
    Can you grant my desire?
[15:59] Lars
    I had intended to be a bit more
    cautious in my plans, though.
[16:04] Zolgia
    What are you plotting?!
[16:06] Lars
    With your magic power run
    dry, and one arm missing,
[16:10] Lars
    you're just an old man who
    can't do anything right now.
[16:12] Lars
    Will come quietly with me?
[16:15] Zolgia
    Are you planning to sell me out to Leohart?
[16:18] Lars
    You make me laugh.
[16:19] Zolgia
    Lars... what are you after?
[16:22] Lars
    I'm sure you don't even know the
    names of those you killed, but...
[16:27] Lars
    When His Majesty Wilbert
    selected the foster parents
[16:30] Lars
    to entrust raising his
    daughter in the human realm,
[16:33] Lars
    he chose two especially
    kind people in his service.
[16:38] Zolgia
    What are you talking about?
[16:40] Lars
    They took in many children who lost
    their homes in the great war,
[16:43] Lars
    and they were loved by
    many of their comrades.
[16:46] Lars
    Especially those like me,
[16:49] Lars
    who grew up in their orphanage and loved
    them like an older brother and sister.
[16:55] Zolgia
    You?! Y-You mean...
[16:59] Lars
    That's right, Zolgia.
[17:01] Lars
    I gave Toujou Basara only one condition—
[17:05] Lars
    To kill you, Zolgia, with my own hands.
[17:10] Maria
    Then that was a puppet dummy...
[17:13] Shella
    Yes. I'm all right.
[17:15] Shella
    Thank you, Maria.
[17:17] Shella
    I'm sorry for making you
    suffer all this time.
[17:20] Maria
    Mother!
[17:21] Basara
    I can't believe Maria's mother
    is this little, er uh, young...
[17:26] Shella
    My, my, well, pardon me
    for the late introduction.
[17:31] Shella
    I'm Maria's mother, Shella.
[17:33] Shella
    Thank you for taking care of my daughter.
[17:35] Basara
    S-Sure... How polite. Thank you.
[17:40] Zest
    Zolgia-sama's zero-particle reaction
    surrounding this mansion has disappeared.
[17:45] Maria
    It means Zolgia's barrier is gone, right?
[17:48] Basara
    All right, let's go home, everyone.
[17:50] Zest
    It's futile.
[17:51] Zest
    I knew that man would abandon me.
[17:55] Basara
    What's going on?
[17:59] Yuki
    This is...
[18:00] Maria
    It's like a living creature. It can't be...
[18:03] Zest
    Even for His Excellency,
[18:04] Zest
    it is practically impossible to
    maintain a constant barrier powerful
[18:08] Zest
    enough to deceive His Majesty Leohart.
[18:10] Zest
    That is why he made the demon realm's
    most dangerous creature into his base,
[18:16] Zest
    and took advantage of its ability
    to cut off dimensions.
[18:18] Zest
    His Excellency merely transformed
    it physically and put it to sleep.
[18:22] Maria
    So with Zolgia's magic undone,
    that creature is now awake?
[18:31] Basara
    Yuki!
[18:31] Yuki
    I'm fine.
[18:32] Basara
    In other words, we're inside
     that monster's stomach?
[18:44] Yuki
    Is there any way out?
[18:50] Zest
    It's impossible to escape from this space
    when it's dimensionally cut off. Besides...
[19:00] Lars
    You brought a dangerous beast from
    the demon realm into this world?
[19:03] Lars
    If you do that, who knows what'll happen?!
[19:06] Zolgia
    That's why it's my insurance.
[19:08] Zolgia
    This world is filled with
    the aura of life that it favors.
[19:13] Zolgia
    Once free from my yoke,
    it'll multiply infinitely,
[19:17] Zolgia
    and eventually swallow up this whole world.
[19:20] Lars
    What?!
[19:21] Zolgia
    I can't afford to let someone else
    have the fish that got away, can I?
[19:27] Lars
    You!
[19:28] Zolgia
    Perish! Perish along with everything!
[19:37] Basara
    Multiply infinitely?!
[19:39] Zest
    So even if you manage to escape
    from here, eventually...
[19:44] Mio
    This isn't funny.
[19:47] Maria
    Mother, please don't leave my side!
[19:50] Shella
    Yes, I won't.
[19:52] Basara
    Zest, does this creature
    have any vital organs?
[19:55] Zest
    Its core is in the center of the mansion,
[19:58] Zest
    but that's the nucleus of
    the dimensional separation.
[20:01] Zest
    Neither magic nor physical
    attacks work against it.
[20:04] Basara
    Take care of Maria's mother.
[20:05] Mio
    Basara, where are you going?
[20:07] Basara
    With Banishing Shift's complete erasure,
[20:10] Basara
    I might be able to eliminate
    the dimensional separation.
[20:12] Mio
    No, it's too dangerous!
[20:15] Basara
    There's no time.
[20:16] ---
    We can't let this creature
    expand into the city.
[20:19] Mio
    Wait, Basara!
[20:20] Basara
    I swore that I would protect our family!
[20:23] Basara
    Even if it costs me my life.
[20:26] Mio
    I'm going, too.
[20:28] Basara
    What are you saying?
[20:29] Mio
    It's impossible for you to break
    through to the center on your own.
[20:35] Mio
    Older brothers aren't the only ones
    who want to protect their family.
[20:38] Mio
    Little sisters do, too.
[20:40] Mio
    Especially their precious older brothers.
[20:42] Basara
    Mio...
[20:44] Yuki
    I'm going, as well
[20:45] Basara
    Yuki!
[20:47] Yuki
    You'll need time to use Banishing
    Shift's complete elimination.
[20:50] Yuki
    Mio and I will protect you.
[20:53] Maria
    Normally, I should be volunteering, but...
[20:57] Mio
    No, you need to protect your mother.
[21:01] Mio
    Otherwise, all our hard work
    will have been for naught.
[21:04] Maria
    Mio-sama, I, I...
[21:08] Mio
    Don't say it. I've always
    been grateful to you.
[21:12] Maria
    Mio-sama...
[21:14] Mio
    Shella-san, when we return, please
    tell us stories about Maria's childhood.
[21:19] Shella
    Yes, as many as you'd like.
[21:21] Maria
    M-Mother!
[21:24] Mio
    This is no time to dawdle. Let's go!
[21:27] Basara
    Wait, I haven't agreed to let you—
[21:28] Yuki
    You're the one who said there's no time.
[21:33] Zest
    I'll lead you to the central core.
[21:36] Basara
    You...
[21:37] Zest
    It's up to you to decide
    whether or not to trust me.
[21:45] Basara
    Please.
[21:46] Zest
    Understood.
[21:53] Basara
    Let's go!
