[00:00] Luto
    Has your young master finally decided
    to intervene in the world's affairs?
[00:07] Tomoe
    Perhaps.
[00:10] Luto
    I think he underestimates his own strength.
[00:15] Luto
    He could've acted a long time ago.
[00:19] Tomoe
    He has his own previous
    experiences and values.
[00:23] Luto
    Values, huh?
[00:25] Luto
    So, will he undergo a major
    transformation soon?
[00:29] Tomoe
    He hasn't changed dramatically
    on the inside yet.
[00:33] Tomoe
    He hasn't yet established
    who he'll be in this world.
[00:38] Luto
    Oh? That's disappointing.
[00:41] Tomoe
    But his abilities have fully blossomed.
[00:45] Tomoe
    Even as a greater dragon,
[00:47] Tomoe
    merely scratching him is
    the most you can manage.
[00:52] Luto
    I see. So he's become that strong.
[00:58] Luto/Id
    Someday, he might become strong
    enough to actually kill the goddess.

    Night Eighteen Fall of the Academy City
[02:40] Makoto/Id
    I wasn't expecting Abelia
    to defeat Ilumgand.
[02:46] Makoto
    I failed to save one of the knights.
[02:49] Makoto
    I'm also terribly sorry about
    what happened to Ilumgand.
[02:54] Augus
    Kuzunoha, you have nothing
    to feel sorry for.
[02:58] Augus
    Your students were impressive, as well.
[03:00] Augus
    I'd love to employ all
    of you as mercenaries.
[03:03] Makoto
    You're too kind.
[03:05] Joshua
    Kuzunoha-dono.
[03:07] Joshua
    We should talk later.
[03:10] Joshua
    It can wait until after this
    commotion has been settled.
[03:13] Makoto
    V-Very well.
[03:15] Makoto/Id
    I wonder if anything's
    going to happen with that.
[03:18] Makoto/Id
    It's not like I'd tell anyone about it.
[03:21] Makoto
    You should flee to a safe place now.
[03:24] Makoto
    We plan act immediately to lead
    an evacuation of the citizens.
[03:28] Augus
    Lead an evacuation?
[03:30] Augus
    Shouldn't someone as strong as you
    be exterminating the monsters?
[03:34] Makoto
    I will, if necessary.
[03:36] Makoto
    But if the academy is acting
    to exterminate them,
[03:38] Makoto
    then we'll lead the evacuation
    and rescue efforts.
[03:42] Augus
    You're just like the hero
    was back when he descended.
[03:47] Makoto
    I'm sorry. Could you repeat that?
[03:50] Augus
    Don't worry about it. Joshua.
[03:53] Joshua
    Yes?
[03:54] Augus
    Send our troops waiting at
    the border into Rotsgard.
[03:59] Augus
    Use telepathy to notify the kingdom, as well.
[04:03] Joshua
    Very well.
[04:04] Joshua
    The closest troops are the Hopleys domain's
    forces at the southern edge of the kingdom.
[04:12] Augus
    Kuzunoha, will you teleport me?
[04:15] Augus
    Please assist Hopleys, as well.
[04:18] Makoto
    Very well.
[04:25] Mio
    Young Master!
[04:27] Mio
    Are you all right?
[04:29] Makoto
    I'm fine. Looks like you're
    having a rough time over here.
[04:35] Shiki
    It will heal right away.
    It won't even leave a scar.
[04:39] Abelia
    O-Okay.
[04:41] Mio
    Applying a completed spell to
    an arrow was a reckless move.
[04:46] Makoto
    Yeah. I'm impressed they
    managed to pull it off.
[04:49] Jin
    Sir...
[04:51] Makoto
    Nice work, Jin.
[04:53] Jin
    I didn't care about him.
[04:56] Jin
    If anything, I was mad at him.
[04:59] Jin
    But when it came time to kill
    him, I just couldn't do it.
[05:02] Makoto
    You were fighting a hyuman, not a monster.
    That's a normal reaction.
[05:05] Jin
    I wish we could've turned him back.
[05:09] Jin
    Do you think I'm naïve?
[05:11] Makoto
    If you lament your own naïveté,
[05:13] Makoto
    then you can spend the rest of your
    time at the academy fixing it.
[05:17] Makoto
    Of course, I believe it's
    one of your strengths.
[05:20] Jin
    But my naïveté put everyone in danger.
    I'd hardly call it a strength.
[05:25] Makoto
    In any case, rest for now.
[05:28] Makoto
    I've heard quite a few mutants have
    appeared in Rotsgard and surrounding cities.
[05:33] Mithra
    Th-They're in the city?
[05:35] Izumo
    No way. What's going on?
[05:38] Daena
    We should help exterminate them.
[05:40] Makoto
    You're still only students.
[05:42] Makoto
    It's not your responsibility to fight them.
[05:44] Makoto
    Also...
[05:46] Makoto
    You two.
[05:48] Makoto
    Your parents are all right.
[05:49] Makoto
    I've assigned dependable escorts
    to them, so don't worry.
[05:53] Makoto
    You won't fight me on
    evacuating, will you?
[05:54] Shifu
    Very well.
[05:56] Yuno
    We'll flee for today.
[06:04] Makoto/Id
    They're still worked up from the battle.
[06:08] Makoto/Id
    I'll tell them about the king's
    kind words another day.
[06:14] Makoto
    I want you two to escort the
    students to a safe place.
[06:17] Makoto
    Guard the place for the night.
[06:19] Mio
    What?
[06:20] Shiki
    What will you do, Young Master?
[06:23] Makoto
    I'm going to check out the city.
[06:26] Mob
    It's dangerous that way!
[06:27] Mob
    Flee quickly!
[06:28] Mob
    Hurry!
[06:33] Makoto
    M-My shop...
[06:37] Makoto/Id
    The merchandise and inventory have already
    been sent to a warehouse in the demiplane,
[06:41] Makoto/Id
    and it seems like they saved the sign, but...
[06:44] Makoto/Id
    This is depressing.
[06:46] Makoto/Id
    Is this a sign to embark on a new venture?
[06:50] Makoto/Id
    I have to think positively,
    or my spirit will be broken.
[06:55] Makoto/Id
    That scream...
[06:56] Makoto/Id
    It came from the red-light district.
[06:59] Woman
    No!
[06:59] Woman
    Help!
[07:04] Woman
    Stop!
[07:11] Makoto/Id
    Is that an octopus?
[07:15] Makoto/Id
    A mollusk assaulting prostitutes?
    How very niche.
[07:21] Makoto
    I'll defeat this creature.
    You should head outside.
[07:24] Makoto
    I'll take you someplace safe after—
[07:27] Makoto/Id
    I don't know where to look.
[07:29] Estelle
    Kid, help the women escape.
[07:31] Estelle
    I'll handle things here.
[07:33] Estelle
    Despite my appearance,
    I'm a former adventurer.
[07:36] Makoto
    I'm a temporary instructor
    at the academy.
[07:38] Makoto
    I'll meet up with you soon.
[07:40] Estelle
    You're an academy instructor?
[07:47] Makoto/Id
    That's awful.
[07:49] Makoto
    Please head outside.
[07:50] Makoto
    If possible, lead the others still
    inside the other buildings.
[07:54] Estelle
    Fine. Try not to die, Teach.
[07:57] Estelle
    Come on, quickly! Hurry up!
[07:59] Woman
    Got it!
[07:59] Makoto/Id
    Boy, was I nervous.
[08:01] Makoto/Id
    I'm not used to seeing
    women dressed like that.
[08:03] Makoto/Id
    The women around here frequently
    purchase my energy drinks.
[08:08] Makoto/Id
    I've gotta take good care of my regulars.
[08:11] Makoto/Id
    Brid.
[08:15] Makoto/Id
    I'll use brute force.
[08:29] Makoto/Id
    That looks bad.
[08:39] Estelle
    You're all right.
[08:43] Makoto
    Yes. I defeated the monster.
[08:46] Estelle
    I guess academy instructors
    are nothing to sneeze at.
[08:49] Makoto
    Is this everyone who's evacuating?
[08:52] Estelle
    Yeah. What safe places do you know of?
[08:55] Makoto
    The closest would be the slums.
[08:58] Estelle
    The slums? Where all the
    demihumans congregate?
[09:01] Makoto
    Fortunately, some people I know
    are coordinating the effort.
[09:05] Makoto
    I'm a merchant.
    I know them through my business.
[09:08] Estelle
    Oh! Are you with the
    Kuzunoha Trading Company?
[09:12] Makoto
    Yes. I'm Kuzunoha, the
    company representative.
[09:14] Estelle
    You are, huh?
[09:17] Estelle
    My girls buy your revitalizing
    drinks all the time.
[09:20] Makoto
    I appreciate your business.
[09:25] Estelle
    You're a strange guy.
[09:27] Estelle
    I'll talk to everyone so there's
    no trouble once we arrive.
[09:31] Makoto
    Thank you. This commotion should
    be resolved eventually.
[09:35] Makoto
    Please wait a while longer.
[09:37] Estelle
    Sorry for the trouble.
[09:39] Estelle
    And pardon the delay, but I'm Estelle.
[09:42] Estelle
    Good to meet you.
[09:43] Makoto
    Nice to meet you. I'm Kuzunoha.
[09:47] Shiki
    Your shelter is nearby. You can rest there.
[09:52] Jin
    Yes, sir.
[09:53] Daena
    We know.
[09:57] Shiki
    Mio-dono?
[09:58] Mio
    Go without me, Shiki.
[10:01] Shiki
    What are you going to do?
[10:03] Mio
    I remembered I have some
    business to attend to.
[10:06] Shiki
    Very well. Don't wait too long to meet us.
[10:13] Mio
    Now, then...
[10:21] Mio
    Regeneration is one of my strengths
    as well, so I can sense it.
[10:26] Mio
    There are signs, like your
    smell and breathing.
[10:31] Mio
    Your core has been completely
    shattered, and yet...
[10:34] Mio
    You poor thing.
[10:36] Ilum
    I remember you. You're Kuzunoha's woman.
[10:42] Mio
    Oh, you can speak?
[10:45] Mio
    I assumed there'd be nothing
    left of your personality.
[10:48] Ilum
    I am Ilumgand Hopleys.
[10:53] Mio
    You were, you mean.
[10:55] Ilum
    They manipulated me.
[10:58] Ilum
    They turned me into a
    monster, and I still lost.
[11:04] Ilum
    What a disgrace.
[11:05] Mio
    Yes, truly.
[11:07] Ilum
    The destructive impulses and
    uncontrollable emotions I felt
[11:13] Ilum
    until a moment ago are
    now unbelievably quiet.
[11:15] Mio
    Of course they are.
[11:17] Mio
    You're now no more than a fleshy blob
    containing remnants of your memories.
[11:22] Ilum
    That's fine. No matter what my body looks
    like, I will make my thoughts known.
[11:29] Ilum
    Don't worry. I won't harm the Gotetsu or Luria.
[11:33] Mio
    Gotetsu? Luria?
[11:36] Ilum
    I wonder why.
[11:38] Ilum
    I was obsessed with her,
[11:40] Ilum
    but now I care more about achieving
    my own ideals than my love for her.
[11:46] Ilum
    I could hide this body if I
    covered myself with armor.
[11:51] Ilum
    Even if I can't pursue
    my ideals under the sun,
[11:56] Ilum
    I can at least act as a shield for Hibiki-sama.
[12:01] Mio
    Hibiki? Did you say Hibiki?
[12:05] Ilum
    Yes. She's the hero who
    descended upon Limia.
[12:09] Mio
    Oh, you're talking about a hero?
[12:12] Mio
    Then she's not the Hibiki I know.
[12:18] Mio
    Poor girl.
[12:21] Mio
    It can't be easy for someone so
    powerless to share a name with a hero.
[12:25] Ilum
    As long as Hibiki-sama is around,
    the demons can be defeated.
[12:29] Ilum
    She will create a peaceful
    world for hyumankind.
[12:34] Mio
    It was a happy miscalculation on my part
    that you still have your memories.
[12:39] Mio
    Now I can punish you.
[12:44] Ilum
    Wh-What are you doing?
[12:46] Mio
    I told you, I'm punishing you.
[12:51] Ilum
    But I have no intention
    of harming you anymore.
[12:55] Mio
    So what?
[12:57] Mio
    You caused trouble for the young
    master and insulted him.
[13:01] Mio
    You've not yet made amends for that.
[13:04] Ilum
    Amends?
[13:05] Ilum
    B-But I have nothing to offer you right now.
[13:09] Mio
    Your life will do.
[13:13] Mio
    Though it's not nearly enough to make
    amends, I'll settle for only your life.
[13:18] Mio
    May you take your unfulfilled
    wishes to the grave.
[13:25] Mio
    Oh, my.
[13:26] Mio
    I was trying to destroy every trace
    of you with a single attack.
[13:29] Mio
    I'm surprised you're
    resistant to dark attacks.
[13:33] Ilum
    D-Does Kuzunoha really hate me that much?
[13:38] Mio
    The young master, hate you?
[13:42] Mio
    It's cute when people are so foolish.
[13:46] Mio
    The young master sees you as no more
    than a pebble he happened to kick.
[13:53] Ilum
    Then why are you...
[14:02] Mio
    Because I couldn't forgive you, obviously.
[14:14] Tomoe
    Eighty mutants have been confirmed so far.
[14:19] Shiki
    Teleportation circles are being
    destroyed one after another,
[14:21] Shiki
    and communication networks are disabled.
[14:24] Lime
    Communication with nearby cities
    has been cut off, too.
[14:27] Lime
    Even within the city, you have to
    get pretty close to use telepathy.
[14:32] Eris
    On top of that, road traffic is
    at a standstill due to congestion.
[14:36] Aqua
    Efforts to leave the city are
    being hindered by the mutants.
[14:40] Makoto
    So the city's cut off from
    the rest of the world.
[14:45] Mio
    Well, this is a problem.
[14:47] Mio
    At least we don't have
    to worry about food.
[14:52] Shiki
    This magical device is responsible
    for the communication interference.
[14:55] Shiki
    Several were placed within
    and outside the city.
[14:59] Makoto
    The demons worked hard to hide them.
[15:02] Shiki
    I failed to discover them, as they were
    undetectable before they activated.
[15:06] Shiki
    Forgive me.
[15:08] Mio
    But they're only interfering with
    the hyumans' telepathy, right?
[15:12] Mio
    There's nothing wrong with ours.
[15:15] Tomoe
    That's because ours is based
    on the telepathy demons use.
[15:20] Tomoe
    They can probably still use theirs.
[15:24] Makoto
    They put a lot of thought into this.
[15:27] Shiki
    The remaining Purple Coats and some of
    the instructors have formed combat units
[15:33] Shiki
    and begun acting according to
    the headmaster's instructions.
[15:36] Tomoe
    Other nations will begin sending
    reinforcements and armed forces.
[15:40] Tomoe
    We should act immediately, as well.
[15:43] Tomoe
    We can't allow them to steal our glory.
[15:47] Makoto
    They know you can teleport, right?
[15:50] Makoto
    They haven't demanded your cooperation?
[15:52] Tomoe
    I've been asked several times to
    transport relief supplies and soldiers,
[15:58] Tomoe
    but I told them this sword's use was limited
[16:00] Tomoe
    and that it would shatter
    if I used it too much.
[16:04] Tomoe
    After that, they stopped asking for help.
[16:06] Makoto
    I see. That's why you decided to tell
    them you use your sword to teleport.
[16:11] Tomoe
    Indeed. Luto came up with
    the idea on the spot.
[16:15] Shiki
    To make matters worse, the number
    of mutants is increasing.
[16:19] Shiki
    Apparently some evacuees are mutating.
[16:23] Aqua
    Quite a few people accepted medicines
    and accessories from demons.
[16:28] Aqua
    We should immediately search for accessories
    similar to the amulet Ilumgand was wearing...
[16:34] Eris
    Confiscate them, and isolate their owners.
[16:37] Lime
    It seems the humanoid experiments
    were connected to that.
[16:41] Makoto
    What?
[16:42] Lime
    The samples we retrieved from a mutant and
    the demihumans experimented upon...
[16:47] Lime
    The same drugs were found in both.
[16:52] Makoto
    In other words, demons were connected
    to Bright-sensei's organization?
[16:57] Lime
    That we don't know, but there's
    no doubt their roots extended
[17:02] Lime
    to the center of the academy
    and they were well-prepared.
[17:07] Makoto/Id
    But why would demons use mutants
    to attack the academy city?
[17:13] Makoto/Id
    Is there some reason
    they caused this commotion
[17:16] Makoto/Id
    besides throwing Rotsgard into chaos?
[17:20] Makoto/Id
    What is the demons' goal, then?
[17:28] Makoto
    Bowl-san.
[17:30] Bowl
    Kuzunoha-san.
[17:32] Bowl
    It's a quiet day today.
[17:34] Bowl
    No disturbances to speak of.
[17:36] Makoto
    Good. Seems like friction with
    the hyumans is diminishing, too.
[17:41] Bowl
    There weren't any conflicts
    as bad as we feared,
[17:45] Bowl
    though things outside are
    as dangerous as ever.
[17:47] Makoto
    Sorry for making you worry.
[17:50] Makoto
    I hope this makes the hyumans of this city
    reconsider their relationship with you.
[17:55] Bowl
    Then this commotion would end as no
    more than an unpleasant memory.
[18:02] Makoto/Id
    Cats are truly great.
[18:04] Makoto/Id
    Of that there can be no doubt.
[18:05] Makoto/Id
    Cats are truly great.
[18:13] Aqua
    Good morning, Young Master.
[18:15] Eris
    We sense no mutants in the area.
[18:18] Makoto
    Good work. Starting today, we'll meet
    up with the extermination forces.
[18:22] Aqua
    It's finally time.
[18:24] Eris
    I'm itching for a fight.
[18:26] Makoto
    I'm counting on you.
[18:27] Makoto
    If anything happens,
    contact me telepathically.
[18:29] Both
    Yes, sir.
[18:31] Estelle
    Kuzunoha.
[18:34] Makoto
    Good morning, Estelle-san.
[18:37] Estelle
    That's a rather formal greeting.
[18:40] Estelle
    You don't need to be
    so considerate of me.
[18:42] Makoto
    Forgive me. It's my nature.
[18:45] Estelle
    Honestly. Are you outside today?
[18:48] Makoto
    Yes. The slums have calmed down, so I
    thought I'd check on the rest of the city.
[18:53] Estelle
    I see. I'll tell my boss
    about you once this is over.
[18:59] Estelle
    I bet it'll lead to business
    opportunities for you.
[19:01] Makoto
    My little trading company isn't much
    to speak of, but I appreciate it.
[19:05] Estelle
    You can count on me. Later.
[19:11] Makoto/Id
    The boss of a brothel?
[19:13] Makoto/Id
    Does she mean mafia?
[19:20] Headmaster
    Evacuate the citizens?
[19:22] Headmaster
    You should be following my instructions!
[19:26] Headmaster
    Two nearby cities have
    fallen completely silent.
[19:29] Headmaster
    We have no idea what's going on.
[19:31] Headmaster
    This is the worst emergency that's happened
    in the academy city since it was established!
[19:36] Headmaster
    But you... you...
[19:38] Makoto/Id
    Just how much does this old man
    expect from a temporary instructor?
[19:43] Lily
    Headmaster.
[19:46] Headmaster
    Princess Lily.
[19:47] Lily
    Not only did he help us evacuate,
    but he returned amidst the danger.
[19:53] Lily
    Please, cease your reprimands.
[19:55] Sairitsu
    For now, his assistance in resolving
    this commotion is essential.
[20:00] Headmaster
    You, too, Sairitsu-dono?
[20:02] Headmaster
    I understand what you're trying to say,
[20:04] Headmaster
    but as the headmaster of this academy—
[20:07] Lily
    Out of respect for us.
[20:09] Sairitsu
    Please.
[20:11] Headmaster
    If you insist.
[20:15] Headmaster
    Kuzunoha!
[20:16] Makoto
    Yes, sir.
[20:17] Headmaster
    You're in charge of exterminating the
    mutants in the northeastern section.
[20:21] Headmaster
    Use your trading company employees
    and students if you wish.
[20:24] Headmaster
    Try redeeming yourself!
[20:27] Makoto
    The two of you saved me. Thank you.
[20:31] Lily
    You needn't thank us.
[20:33] Lily
    The empire's hero should
    be heading this way.
[20:37] Lily
    I'm sorry he hasn't arrived yet.
[20:41] Sairitsu
    If the telepathic message we
    sent the first day got through,
[20:44] Sairitsu
    reinforcements and supplies should
    be arriving by dragonrider.
[20:48] Makoto/Id
    Tomoe was right. The other nations
    have already begun to act.
[20:54] Makoto
    Don't worry.
[20:56] Makoto
    I will also do everything
    I can for this city.
[21:00] Lily
    Thank you.
[21:02] Lily
    Before I return to the empire,
    I'd like to speak with you.
[21:06] Lily
    May I send a servant once
    things have calmed down?
[21:10] Makoto
    Of course. I shall have
    Tomoe join me, as well.
[21:16] Lily
    Good. I look forward to it.
[21:20] Tomoe
    Remaining calm while dealing with
    that headmaster was a good start.
[21:25] Makoto
    Yeah. The merchant's guild is
    in the northeastern section.
[21:32] Makoto
    I hope I can remain calm there, too.
[21:34] Tomoe
    Oh, please. You'll be fine.
[21:38] Tomoe
    You're actually quite skilled despite
    seeming rather unimpressive at first glance.
[21:43] Tomoe
    I have high hopes for you.
[21:47] Makoto/Id
    Maybe Tomoe just wants to pretend
    she's in a historical drama,
[21:53] Makoto/Id
    but regardless of how, the Kuzunoha Trading
    Company will leave an impression on this city.
