[00:01] Yuuki
    Don't involve yourself with
    Naruse Mio any further.
[00:04] Basara
    She's a mid-S-rank
    surveillance target, right?
[00:08] Yuuki
    You knew?
[00:09] Basara
    So you're the one, huh?
[00:12] Basara
    The one the village assigned to observe her.
[00:15] Basara
    I've heard the gist about it from my dad.
[00:17] Yuuki
    Then why? You and Jin-san
    will get caught up in this!
SIGN    Reunion and a Gap in Trust
[01:55] Maria
    I never imagined one of Mio-sama's
    classmates was a member of the hero clan.
[01:59] Mio
    I've... been a fool.
[02:01] Maria
    You couldn't help it.
[02:03] ---
    If it were that easy to notice them,
[02:04] ---
    they wouldn't have been
    chosen to keep watch on you.
[02:07] Mio
    That's not what I mean.
[02:09] Mio
    I should have known the moment I learned
    she was one of Basara's childhood friends.
[02:14] Mio
    Yet I declared that we were living
    together in front of the whole class...
[02:16] Mio
    Now the two of them are off on some
    lovers' rendezvous or something...
[02:20] Maria
    Well, there's nothing to worry
    about if they don't come after us.
[02:24] Maria
    We don't have enough energy to spare on
    making enemies out of the hero clan, too.
[02:29] Mio
    But that's not what I'm worried about.
[02:33] ---
    I...
[02:39] Maria
    Mio-sama?
[02:41] Mio
    No! I'm not peeking!
[02:43] Mio
    I'm concerned about Basara's safety!
[02:47] Maria
    What's wrong?
[02:49] Mio
    Nothing.
[02:51] Mio
    I-I can't believe this would be
    something to activate the curse.
[02:55] Basara
    Mio's parents were murdered
    by those plotting against her,
[02:58] Basara
    and now they're after her life, as well.
[03:01] Basara
    She's innocent.
[03:03] Basara
    She was just living her
    life as a normal girl.
[03:07] Basara
    That's why I've decided to protect her.
[03:10] Yuuki
    But...
[03:11] Basara
    Yeah, I don't have the power I used to.
[03:16] Basara
    But if the hero clan can't protect her...
[03:19] Basara
    If they can't fight for her...
[03:22] Basara
    Then it must be my role to do so.
[03:27] Yuuki
    Basara...
[03:29] Waitress
    P-Pardon me!
[03:31] Waitress
    M-Ma'am!
[03:34] Waitress
    Your change!
[03:36] Maria
    Mio-sama!
[03:38] Maria
    Mio-sama!
[03:39] Maria
    Please wait!
[03:48] Mio
    What do I do, Maria?
[03:50] Maria
    What?
[03:51] Mio
    He's going so far for me...
[03:54] Mio
    How am I supposed to face Basara from now on?
[03:57] Maria
    Isn't this a good thing?
[03:59] Maria
    Now we know that Basara-san
    is a genuinely good person.
[04:03] Mio
    But...
[04:04] Maria
    It just means it's all right for you
[04:07] Maria
    to open your heart and have faith in him.
[04:10] Mio
    Th-That's all?
[04:12] Maria
    Other than that, well,
[04:15] ---
    if you'd like to do something for Basara-san,
[04:19] Maria
    then I think you should do it.
[04:23] Basara
    I understand your concern, Yuki.
[04:25] Basara
    I couldn't finish bearing
    everything five years ago.
[04:29] Yuuki
    That's not it.
[04:30] Yuuki
    That wasn't your fault. You were...
[04:33] Basara
    But what I've done won't change.
[04:36] Yuuki
    That's not true at all.
[04:38] Yuuki
    No matter what anyone else may say,
[04:40] Yuuki
    you're the one who saved us.
[04:43] Basara
    Thanks.
[04:45] ---
    But Mio...
[04:47] Basara
    She's not like me.
[04:52] Basara
    She's trying to face her past
    and live as best she can.
[04:55] Basara
    She's trying to fight.
[04:58] Basara
    Which is all the more reason
    I want to protect her.
[05:03] Mio
    Th-The bath?
[05:08] Basara
    I hope she at least cheers up...
[05:12] Basara
    Hmm? What's wrong?
[05:15] Yuuki
    That's not good enough.
[05:16] Yuuki
    I can't imagine you alone will be able
    to defeat the demons after Naruse Mio.
[05:22] Basara
    They're after the power lurking within her.
[05:26] Basara
    I don't need to win.
[05:28] Basara
    I just need to avoid losing.
[05:30] Yuuki
    But...
[05:31] Basara
    Anyway, I don't intend on involving
    you or the village in our fight.
[05:36] Yuuki
    That's impossible.
[05:50] Basara
    Yuki...
[05:51] Yuuki
    Low-level stray demons.
[05:53] Yuuki
    They're being drawn by Naruse Mio's power
     as the Demon Lord and growing in number.
[05:58] Yuuki
    If her existence starts causing
    danger to her surroundings,
[06:01] Yuuki
    then she'll be upgraded
    to an elimination target.
[06:05] Yuuki
    Once that happens, I won't
    be able to show mercy.
[06:09] Yuuki
    Even if that means you end
    up resenting me, Basara.
[06:17] Basara
    There you have it.
[06:21] Basara
    U-Umm...
[06:24] Maria
    I see. I understand the situation.
[06:27] Basara
    Y-You do? Good, then let's fix dinner—
[06:29] Maria
    However,
[06:31] Basara
    Huh?
[06:31] Maria
    if you're out this late
    on a lovers' rendezvous,
[06:34] ---
    then it's a slight cause for concern.
[06:36] Basara
    I just told you didn't I?
    It wasn't a rendezvous.
[06:39] Maria
    We thought you might be
    working together with her.
[06:43] Maria
    Right, Mio-sama?
[06:44] Mio
    Huh?
[06:45] ---
    Yes, we did...
[06:49] Maria
    Of course, we have faith in you.
[06:52] Maria
    We trust you. We do.
[06:53] Maria
    It's just, as those who are going to
    be fighting together from now on,
[06:57] ---
    we'd like to deepen our bond of trust.
[06:59] Maria
    That's all.
[07:01] Maria
    Right, Mio-sama?
[07:02] Mio
    R-Right. Exactly.
[07:06] Maria
    Don't you agree, Basara-san?
[07:09] Basara
    Well, that's true.
[07:12] Maria
    I knew you'd say so!
[07:15] Maria
    That's our Basara-san!
[07:19] Basara
    So?
[07:20] ---
    What do you want me to do?
[07:26] Basara
    Wait,
[07:27] ---
    how did this happen?
[07:29] Maria
    Spending time naked together is the
    perfect way to build trust, isn't it?
[07:33] Basara
    That's between two guys!
[07:36] Maria
    No, no,
[07:37] ---
    if you're both sharing in the embarrassment,
[07:39] Maria
    then your unity will grow
    whether you like it or not!
[07:42] Basara
    What do you mean?
[07:44] Maria
    Now then,
[07:45] ---
    Mio-sama, shall we wash Basara-san's back?
[07:48] Basara
    No, that's fine. I can do it myself—
[07:50] Maria
    No!
[07:51] Maria
    Allow yourself to be vulnerable
    by exposing your back to us is
[07:55] ---
    how you'll actually be able to build trust!
[07:58] Maria
    Now, Mio-sama!
[08:00] Mio
    Y-Yeah... I get it.
[08:03] Basara
    She must have said the same
    things in order to convince Mio.
[08:09] Mio
    I'm not going to lose to
    the likes of Nonaka Yuki.
[08:13] Mio
    I-I'm starting now.
[08:18] Basara
    What's wrong?
[08:19] Mio
    Huh?!
[08:20] ---
    N-No,
[08:23] ---
    it's nothing.
[08:28] Maria
    Ahem. Ahem.
[08:30] Mio
    I-I know!
[08:35] Basara
    H-Hey?
[08:36] Mio
    D-Don't move!
[08:38] Mio
    Please, stay still.
[08:40] Mio
    If you move, I'll kill you a hundred times over.
[08:47] Mio
    This is so embarrassing.
[08:50] Mio
    But why?
[08:51] Mio
    Basara...
[08:52] Mio
    Basara...
[08:57] Basara
    Th-That's enough.
[08:59] Basara
    W-We haven't eaten yet, either.
[09:01] Basara
    I even got a cake.
[09:03] Basara
    So we should...
[09:04] Maria
    I thought this might happen!
[09:06] Maria
    So I brought it!
[09:08] Basara
    Huh?!
[09:09] Maria
    Now, go ahead, Basara-san.
[09:12] Basara
    W-Wait! What are we doing
    eating cake in the bath?
[09:15] Basara
    That's too outrageous!
[09:19] Basara
    Eating a cake in the bath is going too far.
[09:22] Basara
    Let's wash each other off, and then...
[09:24] Maria
    You mustn't!
[09:25] Maria
    You bought this cake for us.
[09:28] Maria
    I'll enjoy it.
[09:30] Basara
    E-Enjoy it?
[09:34] Maria
    It would be rude to the cake if I didn't
    at least eat the portion that didn't fall.
[09:40] Maria
    This was well made.
[09:43] Maria
    Would you like some, too, Mio-sama?
[09:44] Basara
    Hey, Mio!
[09:46] ---
    Not you, too?
[09:48] Mio
    Huh?
[09:54] Mio
    Onii-chan...
[09:55] Mio
    Onii-chan...
[09:58] Basara
    You two.
[10:00] Basara
    All right.
[10:02] Basara
    If that's how you want it,
[10:04] Basara
    then I don't care what happens anymore.
[10:06] Mio
    No! Basara! Onii-chan! No!
[10:11] Maria
    B-Basara-san, c-calm down!
[10:19] Basara
    Huh?
[10:20] Basara
    That was all a dream?
[10:23] Maria
    No, Basara-san,
[10:24] ---
    it was real.
[10:26] Maria
    Partway at least.
[10:28] Basara
    Huh?
[10:29] Maria
    When you suddenly stood up,
[10:32] Maria
    you shot out an incredible
    nosebleed, and fell over.
[10:35] Basara
    Oh, yeah. That time...
[10:38] Maria
    Umm, by the way, Basara-san.
[10:40] Basara
    Hmm?
[10:41] Maria
    Would you mind removing your
    hand from my butt soon?
[10:46] Basara
    Huh?
[10:49] Basara
    S-Sorry!
[10:51] Maria
    No, I'm the one who snuck
    into your bed after all.
[10:56] Maria
    However, for you to subconsciously
    reach your hand
[10:58] ---
    into a woman's underwear while you sleep...
[11:01] Maria
    I'm surprised to see you're so forward.
[11:04] Maria
    But well, I suppose when you're
    able to have dreams like that...
[11:07] Basara
    Dream?!
[11:09] Basara
    You didn't use your succubus
    magic to make me—?!
[11:11] Maria
    I only peeked in on it.
[11:15] Maria
    The dream you saw was all your own.
[11:18] Basara
    My own?
[11:19] Maria
    My, my, I'm surprised you'd
    dream of such things...
[11:23] Maria
    Perhaps you might have a talent
    for being a sadistic brute.
[11:28] Basara
    That reminds me, where's Mio?
[11:30] Maria
    She was taking care of you,
[11:32] ---
    but it's late now, so I had her go rest up.
[11:36] Basara
    I see.
[11:37] Basara
    Then maybe this is perfect.
[11:39] Maria
    Huh?
[11:39] ---
    Maria, there's something I
    want to talk to you about.
[11:43] ---
    Yes?
[11:50] Woman A
    Want to go somewhere after club?
[11:52] Woman B
    Let's start by heading to the station.
[11:57] Mio
    What's with him? Sleeping away like that.
[11:59] Takigawa
    Hey, Basacchi.
[12:04] Takigawa
    You were exempt from the
    summer-break assignment, right?
[12:09] Basara
    I transferred in between semesters,
    so there's no helping that, right?
[12:12] Mio
    Lately he's been falling asleep in class
     without thinking about how I feel.
[12:13] Takigawa
    I know that, but it's not fair, is it?
[12:23] (Flashback) Yuuki
    Don't involve yourself with
    Naruse Mio any further.
[12:27] Takigawa
    Oh, Nonaka!
[12:29] Takigawa
    The teacher asked you to
    visit the faculty office.
[12:31] Takigawa
    Both of you together.
[12:33] Basara
    Huh? Me, too?
[12:34] Takigawa
    They want you to help organize
    the summer break assignments.
[12:38] Basara
    Why me?
[12:40] Takigawa
    Too bad, Basacchi.
[12:42] Takigawa
    If you thought you'd get
    off easy by yourself,
[12:44] Takigawa
    you were sorely mistaken.
[12:45] Basara
    What should we do?
[12:47] Basara
    Call Maria on her phone?
[12:48] Mio
    No, I'll be waiting.
[12:50] Yuuki
    I'll be fine on my own.
[12:53] Yuuki
    This is my job as class representative.
[12:56] Basara
    The teacher told me to, too. I'll help.
[13:03] Mio
    Why me...
[13:04] Mio
    At this rate, it's as though
    I can't trust Basara...
[13:10] Basara
    Wait, I'll come, too...
[13:16] Basara
    H-Hey, Mio?
[13:18] Basara
    Don't tell me—the curse?
[13:20] Mio
    No.
[13:22] Mio
    I-It's nothing, so...
[13:25] Basara
    Hey, Mio?! What's wrong?
[13:28] Basara
    Mio!
[13:28] Basara
    Mio!
[13:31] Chisato
    A bit anemic.
[13:33] Chisato
    She has a slight fever, but she
    should be fine with a bit of rest.
[13:36] Chisato
    You're the transfer student
    everyone's talking about?
[13:39] Basara
    Huh?
[13:40] Chisato
    How does it feel to make an enemy
     out of every man in the school
[13:42] Chisato
    on the first day you transfer in, playboy?
[13:45] Basara
    The faculty heard those rumors, too?
[13:48] Basara
    What am I supposed to do when I make
    enemies without even intending to?
[13:53] Chisato
    You should build up allies.
[13:55] Basara
    It's not that simple.
[13:57] Basara
    Right now all the guys in school—
[14:00] Chisato
    It's not a matter of quantity;
[14:01] Chisato
    it's the quality of your allies.
[14:03] Basara
    "Quality"?
[14:04] Chisato
    Don't misunderstand me.
[14:07] Chisato
    Don't separate quantity and quality
[14:09] Chisato
    when you're weighing the scales.
[14:12] Announce
    Hasegawa-sensei, please report
    to the faculty office immediately.
[14:15] Chisato
    Is it that time already?
[14:16] Announce
    Repeat. Hasegawa-sensei, please report
    to the faculty office immediately.
[14:17] Chisato
    Sorry, but I need to step out for a meeting.
[14:21] Chisato
    Lock it again when you leave,
    and return the key later.
[14:24] Chisato
    I'm the school nurse, Hasegawa Chisato.
[14:27] Chisato
    Toujou Basara.
[14:29] Chisato
    Consider who your enemies
    and allies are when you act.
[14:33] Basara
    She's an odd one.
[14:38] Basara
    Mio, are you all right?
[14:42] Basara
    Is the curse still active?
[14:45] Basara
    I'll step out for a minute.
[14:48] Mio
    Please... don't leave me alone.
[14:52] Basara
    B-But...
[14:57] Basara
    All right, I'll stay with you.
[15:00] Basara
    I'll stay with you,
    so don't look at me like that.
[15:04] Basara
    Oh, Takigawa.
[15:05] Basara
    Sorry, but it doesn't look like
    I'll be able to go back yet.
[15:09] Takigawa
    Yeah, I'll handle it here.
[15:11] Basara
    Then give Yuki and the teacher my regards.
[15:14] Basara
    Takigawa said he'd handle
    organizing the assignment for me.
[15:17] Mio
    I see.
[15:20] Basara
    How are you? Will you be all right?
[15:23] Mio
    I think I might have calmed down some.
[15:25] Basara
    What happened?
[15:27] Basara
    The curse doesn't activate unless you
    think something bad about me, right?
[15:32] Mio
    I-I didn't...
[15:36] Basara
    Oh, right.
[15:37] Basara
    I'll give Maria a call,
    so get some more rest.
[15:41] Mio
    S-Sure.
[15:42] Mio
    Maria's at the arcade again?
[15:44] Basara
    Y-Yeah. She said there's a game
    she's been hooked on lately.
[15:48] Mio
    Good grief!
[15:49] Mio
    Playing, sleeping in class...
     All of you are like that.
[15:52] Basara
    Sleeping in class has nothing to do with it.
[15:55] Basara
    I'm right here beside you,
    so don't be so upset.
[15:58] Mio
    I-I know.
[16:02] Basara
    So it looks like we might be a while longer.
[16:07] Maria
    Understood.
[16:08] Maria
    I'll come to get you in a bit, then.
[16:11] Basara
    Thanks. And things on your end?
[16:14] Maria
    Today I didn't sense such
    a presence for once.
[16:18] Basara
    I see. Later, then.
[16:22] Basara
    Oh, it's just you, Takigawa.
[16:24] Takigawa
    Don't look like you've seen a monster.
[16:28] Basara
    Sorry for asking you to take my place.
[16:30] Takigawa
    Who cares? More importantly, how's Naruse?
[16:34] Basara
    Well, hanging in there.
[16:36] Basara
    She's settled down.
[16:38] Takigawa
    I was surprised when she suddenly collapsed.
[16:41] Takigawa
    Her face was bright red...
[16:42] Takigawa
    She seemed awfully embarrassed.
[16:44] Basara
    A-Anyway, thank you.
[16:46] Basara
    I'll definitely pay you
    back for this someday.
[16:50] Takigawa
    Oh, speaking of which,
    Basacchi, did you see Nonaka?
[16:53] Basara
    Yuki? No...
[16:55] Takigawa
    That's strange.
[16:56] Takigawa
    She left, saying she was
    going to check up on you two.
[17:00] Basara
    Yuki did?
[17:03] Basara
    I'm heading back, then.
[17:05] Takigawa
    Whoa, a blackout?!
[17:11] Basara
    Don't tell me?!
[17:11] Basara
    They've infiltrated the school?!
[17:14] Basara
    Mio!
[17:16] Mio
    Basara?
[17:19] Mio
    Nonaka Yuki?
[17:21] Yuuki
    I need to talk to you.
[17:28] Takigawa
    Wh-What's going on?
[17:30] Takigawa
    Hey, Basacchi!
[17:38] Basara
    Let me through!
[17:47] Basara
    Mio! Dammit!
[17:53] Mio
    What do you mean by "talk"?
[17:55] Yuuki
    You should have heard from Basara.
[17:57] Yuuki
    You know why I'm here at this school.
[18:00] Mio
    Yes, I've heard.
[18:02] Mio
    I know what you are, and what
    your relationship with him is.
[18:07] Yuuki
    With you around, Basara will suffer.
[18:11] Yuuki
    So...
[18:13] Yuuki
    Leave Basara.
[18:15] Basara
    She shouldn't have gotten far yet.
[18:17] Basara
    Dammit!
[18:19] Basara
    All because I let my guard down.
[18:21] Basara
    Mio!
[18:22] Mio
    No.
[18:23] Mio
    Even after learning the whole truth,
     he said he would protect me.
[18:29] Mio
    Because we're family.
[18:31] Yuuki
    I see.
[18:38] Mio
    So you're resorting to force in the end?
[18:41] Mio
    In that case... I won't show mercy, either.
[18:48] Yuuki
    You're only taking advantage
     of Basara's kindness.
[18:57] Mio
    Then what about you?
[18:59] Mio
    You're ignoring his own will,
[19:01] Mio
    and pushing your selfish
    kindness onto him!
[19:07] Mio
    I'm not making any excuses.
[19:09] Mio
    I don't regret it, either!
[19:14] Mio
    If I apologized after
    getting him this involved,
[19:17] Mio
    it would be rude to him!
[19:19] Mio
    So I'll fight fair and square.
[19:21] Mio
    Together with him!
[19:31] Mio
    My magic barrier?!
[19:33] Yuuki
    If you say such things
    again, I won't forgive you.
[19:37] Yuuki
    If you knew Basara, then you
    couldn't say such things!
[19:41] Mio
    What do you mean?
[19:42] Yuuki
    Basara can't fight like he used to anymore.
[19:46] Yuuki
    It's likely hard for him to
    even hold a sword in his hand.
[19:48] Mio
    Wh-What do you mean?
[19:51] Yuuki
    Five years ago, in order to save us,
[19:55] Yuuki
    Basara eliminated many of his
    companions from this world.
[20:01] Basara
    Mio! Dammit!
[20:05] Basara
    Right, this is what that
    Master-Servant pact was for!
[20:11] Basara
    Above, huh?
[20:13] Mio
    What do you mean?
[20:15] Yuuki
    The reason Jin-san and
    Basara left the village...
[20:18] Yuuki
    and lost their right to belong to the clan...
[20:24] Yuuki
    Even now, that past is making Basara suffer.
[20:28] Yuuki
    You have no idea how cruel it is
    to make Basara wield his sword!
[20:38] Mio
    Basara?
[20:39] Basara
    What's the meaning of this, Yuki?
[20:41] Basara
    You're supposed to be her
    observer, aren't you?
[20:45] Basara
    Mio, you, too.
[20:48] Basara
    You told me you wouldn't make enemies
    out of the hero clan, didn't you?
[20:52] Mio
    I...
[20:54] Basara
    Mio? What's wrong?
[20:55] Mask
    They were talking about your past.
[21:01] Mask
    Up until just now.
[21:03] Mio
    When did you?!
[21:05] Mask
    You're exiled from the hero clan!
[21:08] Mask
    And you're guarding the descendant
    of the previous Demon Lord?
[21:12] Mask
    What an awfully intriguing tale.
[21:15] Basara
    You're behind those demons
     that showed up before?!
[21:17] Mio
    Basara, what demons?!
[21:19] Basara
    Don't worry.
[21:21] Mio
    But!
[21:22] Mask
    Indeed.
[21:24] Mask
    It's pointless worrying about it now.
[21:26] Mask
    These past few days,
[21:28] ---
    he's wielded his sword
    in battle several times.
[21:32] Mio
    Huh?
[21:33] Mask
    Every night. Until dawn.
[21:36] Mio
    Basara, what does he mean?!
[21:39] Basara
    Quiet!
[21:41] ---
    Now, now.
[21:44] Both
    Basara!
[21:46] Basra
    He's strong!
[21:49] Mio
    Basara, what does he mean you've
    been fighting every night?
[21:52] Mask
    It was for your sake.
[21:54] Mask
    The power you've inherited
    from the previous Demon Lord
[21:57] ---
    draws stray, low-level demons to you.
[22:00] Mask
    If those were to begin harming other humans,
[22:03] Mask
    the hero clan would determine
    your existence to be harmful,
[22:06] Mask
    and upgrade you from a target for
    observation to a target for elimination.
[22:10] Mask
    Once you become a target for elimination,
[22:12] Mask
    you wouldn't be allowed to live,
    even though you're a former hero.
[22:15] Mask
    That's why that woman told you to leave him.
[22:20] Mask
    Well, he and that succubus at your side
[22:24] ---
    have been hunting stray demons every day and
    night in order to keep that from happening.
[22:30] Mio
    Is that true, Basara?
[22:35] Mio
    Then the reason Maria stopped
    coming to get us was...
[22:38] Basara
    If I told you, you'd only
    blame yourself, right? So...
[22:43] Mio
    I'm sorry. I didn't know anything...
[22:46] Basara
    No. You're not the one at fault.
[22:48] Mask
    No. Naruse Mio, your existence
    is to blame for it all.
[22:54] Basara
    Why you!
[22:55] Mask
    If that comes as such a shock to you,
[22:57] Mask
    then would you mind ceding
    the previous Demon Lord's power
[23:00] Mask
    that's the cause of all this?
[23:04] Basara
    Get down, Mio!
[23:07] Mask
    Are you planning to eliminate her this time?
[23:12] Basara
    Dammit!
[23:21] Yuuki
    Basara!
[23:22] Mio
    No...
[23:24] Mio
    Hey...
[23:25] Mio
    You're kidding me, right?
[23:28] Mio
    Basara?
[23:30] Mio
    Basara!
