SIGN    Kaleneon / Aensland Domain
[00:03] Ilumgand
    I see. You were thinking the same thing?
[00:06] Luria
    Yes.
[00:08] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Then swear to me that we'll
    fight together someday.
[00:15] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    My name is Ilumgand Hopleys.
[00:18] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    I am the second son of the Hopleys
    house of the great nation of Limia.
[00:21] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    I lament the corruption of our
    nobility and seek reform.
[00:26] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Those born with noble blood must
    behave in a manner befitting nobles.
[00:30] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    On our lands granted to us by the king,
    we must protect our weak people,
[00:33] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    acting as their sword and shield.
[00:39] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    How was that?
[00:48] Ilumgand/Id
    That sight was more beautiful to me
    than any blessing from the goddess.
[00:54] Ilumgand/Id
    The memory still remains with me.

[02:34] Makoto/Id
    Zara-san refused to treat
    me like a merchant.
[02:39] Makoto/Id
    I hate to admit it, but it's true
    that I'm not a very good one.
[02:42] Makoto/Id
    He was right about me being naïve, too.
[02:45] Makoto/Id
    And ultimately, I'm trying to
    establish a relationship with demons.
[02:49] Makoto/Id
    I'd be betraying this city.
[02:53] Makoto/Id
    I may not be able to stay
    in Rotsgard anymore.
[02:57] Makoto/Id
    The last thing I can do
    for my students is...
[03:04] Rona
    Kuzunoha, I'm glad to hear from you.
[03:08] Makoto
    Forgive me for contacting
    you telepathically.
[03:10] Makoto
    I actually have a request for you, Rona-san.
[03:13] Rona
    Let's hear it.
[03:15] Makoto
    I've been tolerating it until now,
[03:19] Makoto
    but by the time the tournament ends,
[03:21] Makoto
    could you have the demons hidden
    in Rotsgard leave the city?
[03:27] Rona
    May I ask why?
[03:29] Makoto
    It's for Jin and Abelia.
[03:32] Makoto
    A certain student has been
    acting in a threatening way.
[03:36] Makoto
    I don't want there to be any more
    trouble at the academy festival.
[03:41] Rona
    I didn't know them long,
    but I still studied alongside them.
[03:46] Rona
    In that case, I'll do what I can, Kuzunoha-dono.
[03:54] Makoto/Id
    Now all I have to do is
    set that plan in motion.
[04:05] Makoto
    Forgive me for not sending someone
    to escort you at this hour.
[04:08] Makoto
    All my employees are out today.
    It's just me here.
[04:13] Eva
    I don't mind an invitation from
    you at any hour, Kuzunoha-sensei.
[04:19] Eva/Id
    I'll accommodate whatever demand he makes.
[04:22] Eva/Id
    After all, he's finally
    asking me for something.
[04:26] Eva
    By the way, congratulations
    on your students' victories.
[04:29] Eva
    Everyone was wondering who taught them.
[04:33] Makoto
    It was the fruits of their
    talent and hard work.
[04:37] Makoto
    The credit belongs to them and them alone.
[04:40] Eva
    You're as modest as ever.
[04:42] Makoto
    More importantly, regarding the
    reason I invited you here...
[04:53] Eva
    Sensei...
[04:55] Eva
    Rather, Kuzunoha-san. Are you serious?
[04:59] Makoto
    Yes.
[05:03] Makoto/Id
    Now there's no turning back.
[05:07] Makoto/Id
    I'll probably have to leave the
    academy, so at the very least...
SIGN    Combat Tournament Team Final
[05:13] Makoto/Id
    I need to observe my students'
    efforts until the end.
[05:20] Makoto
    What did you two think of
    the students' fighting?
[05:23] Mio
    They're not as good as Toa and the others,
    but they've got a knack for it.
[05:27] Tomoe
    Jin and Mithra's battle was impressive.
[05:31] Makoto
    You mean how he won the
    fight but lost the match.
[05:36] Tomoe
    Personally, I've told Mithra
    I'll grant him a reward.
[05:41] Tomoe
    His choices are a duel, a duel, or a duel.
[05:45] Makoto/Id
    So there's only one choice.
[05:48] Daena
    Did you know?
[05:50] Daena
    Tomoe-san and Mio-san are over level 1,500.
[05:53] Shifu
    Yes. By the way, Mithra-senpai...
[05:56] Yuno
    Why do you look so troubled?
[06:00] Mithra
    Tomoe-san said she'd train with
    me after the academy festival.
[06:07] Daena
    Seriously?
[06:08] Mithra
    She told me not to die
    with a straight face.
[06:13] Mithra
    Again, she's level 1,500.
[06:18] Shiki
    It's time, everyone.
[06:20] Shiki
    Let's begin the battle for a spot in the final.
[06:23] Jin
    Let's do this.
[06:25] Mithra
    I will win.
[06:26] Shifu
    I'll win the team battle, as well.
[06:29] Yuno
    You're not taking my spot.
[06:31] Daena
    I've got a secret strategy.
[06:33] Izumo
    I've got a strategy of my own.
[06:35] Abelia
    I will participate in the final
    with Shiki-san in the audience.
[06:42] Makoto
    What is that?
[06:45] Tomoe
    He's using some kind of magic
    to enhance his abilities.
[06:49] Tomoe
    It's probably a side effect of that.
[06:51] Mio
    He looks like he'd taste disgusting,
[06:54] Mio
    like some kind of adulterated hyuman.
[06:58] Makoto
    Shiki, how were the students?
[07:01] Shiki
    They fought fiercely for
    the right to participate
[07:03] Shiki
    using the rock-paper-scissors
    game you taught them.
[07:07] Shiki
    Anyway, that student they'll be facing...
[07:10] Makoto
    You noticed?
[07:11] Shiki
    He's using some type of magical medicine.
[07:15] Shiki
    But I'm more interested
    in that amulet of his.
[07:20] Shiki
    It's disguised to seem like it
    increases his magic resistance.
[07:25] Makoto
    Disguised?
[07:27] Makoto
    That's certainly odd.
[07:29] Shiki
    In reality, I believe it absorbs something.
[07:33] Tomoe
    I've got a bad feeling about this.
[07:35] Mio
    Indeed. The entire city gives
    off a strange feeling.
[07:39] Makoto
    Give the students any
    weapons they might need.
[07:44] Shiki
    Understood.
[07:46] Jin
    Let's go. Don't hold back against Ilumgand.
[07:49] Izumo
    We know.
[07:51] Izumo
    We finally get to test your temporary
    enhancement skill in a real battle.
[07:55] Yuno
    If you let your guard down,
    we'll steal your thunder.
[08:02] Daena
    Why did I go with rock?
[08:04] Abelia
    I'd be in the final if you hadn't drawn.
[08:07] Shifu
    Who throws paper four times in a row?
[08:10] Mithra
    I didn't get to participate
    in a single team battle.
[08:14] Ilumgand
    I'll crush them.
[08:16] Ilumgand
    I'll crush them.
[08:18] Ilumgand
    I'll crush them!
[08:20] Jin
    What are you getting so worked up about?
[08:24] Jin
    It's too late for that.
[08:26] Izumo
    There's clearly something wrong with him,
    but the ref is pretending not to notice.
[08:30] Yuno
    Yuck.
[08:32] Makoto/N
    Hidden behind the student's strange behavior
[08:36] Makoto/N
    was a truth unknown even to Misumi Makoto.
[08:48] Ilumgand/Id
    There are two people I can't forget.
[09:01] Ilumgand/Id
    One is Otonashi Hibiki.
[09:07] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    I wish I could've left school to help you.
[09:11] (Flashback) Hibiki
    Your studies and the connections
    you'll make there are important.
[09:15] (Flashback) Hibiki
    Once you graduate and return to
    the kingdom, we'll fight together.
[09:20] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Hibiki-san...
[09:23] (Flashback) Hibiki
    I'd feel encouraged to have your help.
[09:27] (Flashback) Hibiki
    As fellow warriors,
    I'll wait for the day you return.
[09:35] Ilumgand/Id
    As the hero of Limia, she gave
    shape to my dreams and ideals.
[09:42] Ilumgand/Id
    And the other is...
[09:45] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Luria?
[09:50] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Is that you, Luria Aensland?
[09:52] (Flashback) Luria
    Who are you?
[09:54] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    It's me, Ilumgand.
    Of the Hopleys family of Limia.
[09:59] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    We used to play together in Kaleneon.
[10:02] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    I remember the flowering fields of Agarest.
[10:06] (Flashback) Student 2
    Ilum-san, we learned about
    Kaleneon in our recent lecture.
[10:11] (Flashback) Student 3
    It fell at the start of the major invasion.
[10:14] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Yeah.
[10:16] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    She's the daughter of the Aenslands,
    a noble family that prospered in Kaleneon.
[10:21] (Flashback) Student 1
    But weren't they destroyed by demons?
[10:24] (Flashback) Student 1
    All the nobles of Kaleneon were killed.
[10:26] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Hey, cut it out.
[10:28] (Flashback) Student 1
    Sorry.
[10:30] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    She's Luria.
[10:32] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    You used to wear that same choker.
[10:38] (Flashback) Luria
    Yes.
[10:40] (Flashback) Luria
    It's true. I am Luria.
[10:43] (Flashback) Luria
    You probably met me once, as well.
[10:48] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    You're a noble.
    What are you doing in this city?
[10:52] (Flashback) Luria
    I was young, so I don't remember clearly,
[10:56] (Flashback) Luria
    but apparently my parents
    sent me to safety.
[11:03] Ilumgand/Id
    She was alive. That was enough for me.
[11:08] Ilumgand/Id
    But I couldn't suppress the rage-like
    emotion I felt at the thought
[11:10] Ilumgand/Id
    that she might've forgotten the oath
    we made in the flowering fields.
[11:13] (Flashback) Student 1
    You abandoned your people and lands to flee?
[11:16] (Flashback) Student 2
    Nobles should engage the enemy.
[11:20] (Flashback) Student 3
    Are you so desperate to live
    that you'd become a waitress?
[11:23] (Flashback) Student 3
    You should be ashamed.
[11:24] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Yeah. You're an embarrassment
    to hyumankind.
[11:28] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Both the Aensland family and you yourself.
[11:30] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    How dare you abandon your noble
    responsibility for your own survival?
[11:35] (Flashback) Luria
    You've never truly faced death before.
[11:40] (Flashback) Luria
    You have no idea how I've lived.
[11:44] (Flashback) Luria
    You've no right to speak to me like that.
[11:48] (Flashback) Student 2
    What was that?
    You dare insult us, you coward?!
[11:53] (Flashback) Student 3
    We wouldn't cling to life and
    flee from battle like you did!
[11:58] (Flashback) Luria
    Those who arrogantly make such bold claims
    are only capable of bullying the weak.
[12:05] (Flashback) Luria
    You couldn't possibly risk your lives in war.
[12:13] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    No, I just—
[12:15] (Flashback) Luria
    I'm in a hurry.
[12:17] (Flashback) Luria
    Excuse me.
[12:21] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Wait! Listen to me!
[12:23] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    Don't be rude!
[12:26] Makoto
    That's enough.
[12:32] Ilumgand/Id
    I don't even want to recall
    what happened next.
[12:37] Ilumgand/Id
    I should've gone to see Luria again, but...
[12:41] Ilumgand/Id
    Why does he have to keep getting in my way?
[12:48] (Flashback) Karen
    You're Ilumgand-sama, aren't you?
[12:50] (Flashback) Karen
    Don't worry. I'm a student at the academy.
[12:54] (Flashback) Karen
    There's something I'd like
    to discuss with you.
[12:59] (Flashback) Karen
    This is a magical medicine being
    developed at the academy.
[13:03] (Flashback) Karen
    It dramatically improves your
    physical and magical abilities.
[13:07] (Flashback) Karen
    Would you like to try it?
[13:10] Ilumgand/Id
    I wanted power so I could defeat
    Kuzunoha and see Luria again, but...
[13:18] (Flashback) Student 1
    Ilum-san!
[13:19] (Flashback) Student 2
    Are you all right?
[13:20] (Flashback) Student 1
    You seem unwell of late.
[13:24] (Flashback) Ilumgand
    I'm fine. It's nothing.
[13:27] Ilumgand
    I need more. Don't you have
    a more effective medicine?
[13:31] Karen
    I could get you some,
    but there are some side effects.
[13:36] Ilumgand
    I don't care what it is.
[13:38] Ilumgand
    Bring it to me right away.
[13:40] Karen
    Very well.
[13:41] Karen
    I'll also give you this amulet
    that increases magic resistance.
[13:45] Karen
    It's a gift from me.
[13:49] Ilumgand
    That's not enough to earn my gratitude.
[13:51] Karen
    Of course it isn't.
[13:53] Karen
    I shall continue to provide
    all the assistance I can.
[13:56] Karen
    I humbly beg your pardon.
[14:05] Ilumgand/Id
    I had no idea what was happening.
[14:08] Ilumgand/Id
    I didn't realize I was being used or that
    there was something wrong with my body.
[14:22] Jin
    Izumo, Yuno!
[14:23] Both
    Got it!
[14:26] Mio
    They've increased their speed
    through physical enhancement.
[14:29] Tomoe
    Those two will handle the six nobodies.
[14:32] Student 1
    Th-They're coming!
[14:35] Jin
    Prepare yourself.
[14:36] Ilumgand
    I'll crush you!
[14:40] Jin/Id
    So heavy!
[14:49] Jin
    Damn. You've embarrassed
    me in front of our teacher.
[14:53] Jin
    Sorry, Izumo and Yuno.
[14:56] Jin
    I'm starting without you.
[14:58] Ilumgand
    You nuisance. I'll crush you!
[15:01] Ilumgand
    Kuzunoha!
[15:05] Yuno
    Take this!
[15:08] Yuno
    Bull's-eye!
[15:10] Izumo
    Satania, bind them!
[15:15] Yuno
    One!
[15:18] Yuno
    Two!
[15:21] Yuno
    Three!
[15:23] Yuno
    And then...
[15:26] Yuno
    Four!
[15:30] Yuno
    Got my spear back, too.
[15:34] Yuno
    Looks like I win, Izumo-kun.
[15:37] Izumo
    You beat me.
[15:40] Izumo
    The short incantation reduces
    the power of the wind blade.
[15:45] Yuno
    That just leaves...
[15:50] Izumo
    Jin, you were supposed to wait!
[15:52] Izumo
    We promised we'd fight him together!
[15:55] Jin
    You've gotten pretty tough, Ilumgand-senpai.
[15:58] Jin
    But don't give up yet!
[16:07] Yuno
    Aw, shucks. There won't be
    anything left for us to do.
[16:11] Izumo
    Wait! His dolls...
[16:13] Yuno
    They're hardly damaged! What's going on?
[16:16] Izumo
    Jin's mixing in attacks
    that should knock him out.
[16:27] Mob
    Seriously?
[16:28] Mob
    That student...
[16:29] Mob
    There's something wrong with him.
[16:32] Ilumgand
    If not...
[16:33] Ilumgand
    If not for him...
[16:36] Jin
    Ref, are we good to keep fighting?
    He's acting weird.
[16:40] Ref
    H-He seems to want to continue the match.
[16:44] Ref
    His dolls are hardly damaged.
[16:46] Ref
    Continue.
[16:48] Ilumgand
    I-I was supposed to achieve
    my ideals with the hero.
[16:55] Ilumgand
    Kuzunoha! Stay out of my way, Kuzunoha!
[16:58] Jin
    That's not my problem. I'm not my teacher.
[17:01] Jin
    And the ideals of someone
    who'd fight dirty in a match...
[17:07] Jin
    aren't worth hearing!
[17:11] Jin
    Izumo, Yuno! With me!
[17:13] Jin
    Let's wrap this up!
[17:20] Jin
    You've lost your mind!
[17:23] Izumo
    Yuno, I'm counting on you!
[17:25] Yuno
    Got it!
[17:26] Izumo
    Aeriel!
[17:28] Izumo
    You've got 20 seconds!
[17:29] Yuno
    I know! Here I come!
[17:37] Makoto/Id
    A jump kick and aerial combo.
[17:40] Makoto/Id
    Though I'm far from home,
[17:41] Makoto/Id
    something about that move seems
[17:42] Makoto/Id
    vaguely Japanese.
[17:44] Yuno
    Since you love weapons enough to eat them,
[17:48] Yuno
    here's a gift for you!
[17:53] Yuno
    Got him.
[17:55] Jin
    Crap! She's falling!
[17:56] Izumo
    Yuno!
[18:02] Yuno
    Don't worry. Even I can use
    a bit of floating magic.
[18:07] Izumo
    Oh, yeah?
[18:09] Jin
    You could've said so sooner.
[18:12] Jin
    Either way, that was a terrifying attack.
[18:15] Izumo
    He can't defend properly in the air.
[18:18] Izumo
    I figured it'd be effective against
    someone who hadn't seen it before.
[18:21] Yuno
    Our current goal is to pull
    that off against Zwei-san.
[18:29] Ref
    Th-The match is over!
[18:38] Mio
    The girl who finished him off
    has some impressive moves.
[18:43] Tomoe
    Indeed. That mid-air flurry
    of blows was something else.
[18:47] Tomoe
    Perhaps I'll try it, as well.
[18:50] Makoto
    I'm glad I got to see their match.
[18:53] Makoto
    I was worried about the magical medicine.
[18:56] Makoto
    I'm going to go honor the winners.
[18:59] Makoto
    I want to check on Ilumgand, too.
[19:02] Mio
    Young Master, look.
[19:09] Makoto/Id
    They're on alert?
[19:11] Makoto/Id
    What's going on?
[19:12] Tomoe
    It's releasing some rather nasty waves.
[19:18] Mio
    This alien mana...
[19:21] Mio
    It's binding to the old
    emotions in his memories.
[19:29] Shiki
    Young Master, it's too late for him.
[19:32] Makoto
    Huh?
[19:34] Shiki
    He's no longer hyuman.
[19:36] Shiki
    He's begun to mutate.
[19:39] Makoto
    Mutate? Who would do that,
    and for what purpose?
[19:42] Shiki
    There's only one who would do that.
[19:46] Shiki
    You know who I mean, don't you?
[19:49] Makoto
    That can't be.
[19:54] Makoto
    But Rona-san complied with my request.
[19:56] Makoto
    She said she studied with
    Jin and the others, too.
[20:00] Shiki
    Young Master, did she say she
    wouldn't do anything in Rotsgard?
[20:06] Makoto
    Well...
[20:08] Shiki
    Then even if this were her doing,
    she wouldn't be breaking her promise.
[20:14] Shiki
    At the very least, that's what she'll say.
[20:16] Shiki
    That's just how demons operate.
[20:20] Makoto/Id
    Was I wrong to think I could
    associate with demons?
[20:26] Tomoe
    These demons aren't easy
    to get along with, either.
[20:29] Mio
    Everyone's always trying to use
    or deceive the young master.
[20:35] Mio
    They'll pay for this.
[20:37] Makoto/Id
    Given the circumstances,
    is it even possible?
[20:44] Makoto
    Would you like to retake your homeland?
[20:48] Makoto/Id
    I wanted to restore Kaleneon and
    hide everything related to myself
[20:53] Makoto/Id
    and the Kuzunoha Trading
    Company there, but...
