[00:04] Yumiella
    Ryu, drop down a bit lower.
[00:09] Yumiella
    If I'm guessing right,
    we should find her soon.
[00:20] Yumiella
    I was right.
[00:30] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia?
[00:32] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia!
[00:39] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia, it's me.
[00:45] Alicia
    M-Miss Yumiella, it's you...
[00:48] Alicia
    What am I doing... way out here?
[00:53] Yumiella
    You don't remember?
SIGN    Villainess Level 99
SIGN    I May Be the Hidden Boss but I'm Not the Demon Lord
[02:32] Alicia
    I see...
[02:34] Alicia
    You came all this way looking for me
    because you were worried about me?
[02:38] Yumiella
    Since I told you about the
    dungeon in Varias yesterday,
[02:42] Yumiella
    I thought maybe you...
[02:43] Yumiella
    You didn't seem thrilled with
    the idea at the time, but...
[02:47] Alicia
    Yes...
[02:48] Alicia
    But what you said was exactly right.
[02:52] Alicia
    I can't keep holding Ed and
    the others back forever.
[02:56] Alicia
    I didn't know what to do.
[02:58] Yumiella
    And you were so stressed over it,
[02:59] Yumiella
    your feet carried you this far before
    you even realized you were moving?
[03:05] Alicia
    Actually, this has happened
    to me a few times before.
[03:10] Yumiella
    It has?
[03:12] Alicia
    I'm just... doing things
    I never imagined doing
[03:14] Alicia
    without even realizing it.
[03:19] Alicia
    The first time was
[03:20] Alicia
    right after I received the Royal
    Academy's recommendation to enroll.
[03:24] Alicia
    They'd heard a rumor that
    I could use light magic,
[03:28] Alicia
    so the school sent someone
    to recruit me in person...
[03:33] Alicia
    But I said I couldn't and turned them down.
[03:37] Alicia
    But then, as I listened to him talk,
[03:40] Alicia
    I was overcome by the feeling that
    I needed to enter the academy...
[03:45] Alicia
    and the next thing I knew,
    I was signing the paperwork.
[03:51] Alicia
    It also happened at last year's
    martial arts competition,
[03:55] Alicia
    after you gave me advice.
[03:58] Alicia
    I had only a vague image
    of the spell in my head,
[04:02] Alicia
    but when it was my turn, the spell's
    name suddenly came to me...
[04:06] (Flashback) Alicia
    Sun Rain!
[04:09] Alicia
    It was like my body acted
    of its own free will.
[04:13] Alicia
    Even I didn't understand it.
[04:16] Alicia
    And then, before the party at
    the end of the school year,
[04:19] Alicia
    I invited Ed outside without realizing it.
[04:23] Yumiella
    I remember that.
[04:25] Yumiella
    The other two boys were making a
    fuss because you two were gone.
[04:29] Alicia
    I actually asked a prince
    to leave a party with me!
[04:32] Alicia
    How was I even able to do something so bold?
[04:36] Alicia
    I do remember doing these things,
[04:40] Alicia
    but it's like... it wasn't me doing them.
[04:44] Alicia
    It's as if something was spurring me on...
[04:48] Yumiella
    Have you told anyone about this?
[04:51] Alicia
    I haven't told Ed or the other boys.
[04:54] Alicia
    It would only make them worry.
[04:57] Alicia
    I considered talking to a teacher about it,
[05:00] Alicia
    but it seemed to have stopped
    happening recently...
[05:03] Yumiella
    I see. I've pretty much got the idea now.
[05:07] Yumiella
    Looks like my hypothesis was on the mark.
SIGN    Alicia
SIGN    We'll all fight together and defeat the Demon Lord!
[05:10] Yumiella
    This world is basically Light and Hero*.
[05:13] Yumiella
    In other words,
[05:14] Yumiella
    it's nearly identical to the world of
    the otome game
Light Magic and the Hero
.
[05:17] Yumiella
    And Alicia is the heroine of that game.
SIGN    Alicia
SIGN    So this is the Royal Academy...
[05:20] Yumiella
    Her enrollment in the Royal Academy...
SIGN    Alicia
SIGN    Sun Rain!
[05:22] Yumiella
    Her performance in the*
    martial arts competition...
SIGN    Edwin
SIGN    Alicia, let's go someplace where we can be alone.
[05:26] Yumiella
    Her leaving the party with one
    of the conquerable characters...
[05:29] Yumiella
    They're all events that are
    necessary to advancing the story.
[05:33] Yumiella
    At those times, Alicia almost
    automatically acts in accordance
[05:36] Yumiella
    with the Light and Hero storyline.
[05:39] Yumiella
    Essentially, she's doing what the
    game's plot compels her to do.
[05:45] Yumiella
    Leveling up is another thing that's
    essential for beating the Demon Lord.
[05:50] Yumiella
    Clearly, the plot kicked in again this time
[05:54] Yumiella
    and compelled Alicia to move.
[05:57] Yumiella
    I guess it's pretty tough
    to be the heroine, too.
[06:02] Yumiella
    But there's no need for me to tell her that.
[06:06] Yumiella
    She wouldn't get it, and
    it would only confuse her.
[06:10] Yumiella
    You must be someone with a strong
    sense of responsibility, Miss Alicia.
[06:14] Alicia
    Huh?
[06:15] Yumiella
    Between that and how conscientious you are,
[06:18] Yumiella
    you get so stressed that
    your body acts on its own.
[06:21] Yumiella
    I think it was just raw
    talent that allowed you
[06:23] Yumiella
    to use that spell you'd never used before.
[06:26] Alicia
    Really?
[06:28] Yumiella
    Besides, they say young people like you
[06:32] Yumiella
    are unbalanced in both mind and body.
[06:35] Yumiella
    I'm sure your unconscious
    actions will stop in time.
[06:39] Alicia
    Aren't you still young
    yourself, Miss Yumiella?
[06:41] Yumiella
    Oh, right!
[06:49] Alicia
    Still, I feel a bit better now.
[06:52] Alicia
    Thank you!
[06:54] Yumiella
    That heroine smile!
[06:56] Alicia
    Now, I need to hurry back!
[06:59] Alicia
    Ed and the others are worried about me!
[07:01] Yumiella
    Actually, before that...
[07:04] Yumiella
    Since we're here, let's do just
    a bit of leveling in the dungeon.
[07:08] Alicia
    What? Right now?
[07:11] Yumiella
    Of course.
[07:15] Yumiella
    I have my Amulet of Protection.
[07:16] Yumiella
    Once you try it, you'll
    see how much fun it is.
[07:20] Alicia
    Y-You think so?
[07:23] Yumiella
    You'll be fine. I'll be right there with you.
[07:28] Alicia
    R-Right...
[07:32] GuardA
    This dungeon is dangerous,
    even for Royal Academy students.
[07:37] GuardA
    You need permission to enter.
[07:38] Yumiella
    It's all right.
[07:40] Yumiella
    Come on, Ryu. Help us ask them.
[07:54] Yumiella
    What happened? Did some
    urgent business come up?
[07:57] Alicia
    I don't think that's it...
SIGN    The Hidden Boss Enters a Dungeon
[08:31] Yumiella
    If there are monsters all around you,
[08:33] Yumiella
    you can hit a target dead-on
    even without aiming.
[08:36] Yumiella
    Easy, right?
[08:38] Alicia
    Easy?!
[08:39] Alicia
    You call this easy?!
[08:41] Yumiella
    The more monsters you kill,
    the more your level will go up.
[08:45] Yumiella
    Monsters of the dark attribute
    are weak to light magic,
[08:48] Yumiella
    so you can just have fun mowing them down.
[08:50] Alicia
    This is not fun! This is not fun!
[08:53] Alicia
    Help me! Grandma!
[08:56] Yumiella
    I conquered this dungeon multiple times
    in the game, so I know I won't get lost.
[09:01] Yumiella
    But Alicia is new to dungeons.
[09:04] Yumiella
    I should do her the service
    of guiding her through it.
[09:07] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia, we'll go this way next.
[09:10] Alicia
    O-Okay...
[09:19] Alicia
    Um, the monsters seem to be
    getting bigger and bigger...
[09:23] Yumiella
    The deeper we go, the stronger
    the monsters will be.
[09:26] Yumiella
    That's the real thrill of dungeons.
[09:29] Alicia
    I don't need that kind of thrill!
[09:36] Yumiella
    This dungeon goes down fifty floors,
[09:39] Yumiella
    and it gives you reward items at random.
[09:43] Yumiella
    Let's look forward to that.
[09:45] Alicia
    What?
[09:45] Alicia
    Fifty floors?!
[09:54] Yumiella
    From here, monsters of attributes
    other than dark will show up.
[09:57] Yumiella
    Be sure to identify each opponent's
    weaknesses and skills.
[10:01] Alicia
    Why aren't you helping me, Miss Yumiella?!
[10:04] Yumiella
    Because I'd get in the
    way of your leveling...
[10:07] Yumiella
    Don't worry.
[10:09] Yumiella
    If I think you're in danger, I'll...
[10:13] Yumiella
    back you up.
[10:14] Alicia
    I'm still going to worry!
[10:26] Alicia
    Huh? Wh-What just...
[10:29] Yumiella
    You leveled up and gained the
    ability to use a new spell.
[10:33] Yumiella
    Let's keep it up.
[10:47] Yumiella
    You're doing great!
[10:53] Yumiella
    This is a pleasure I can't experience anymore
[10:56] Yumiella
    now that my level's maxed out.
[10:58] Yumiella
    I envy her.
[11:01] Yumiella
    Oh, yeah. I forgot there was a pitfall here.
[11:08] Alicia
    Ow...
[11:21] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia, are you all right?
[11:24] Alicia
    Yes...
[11:25] Alicia
    I killed the monster, but I—
[11:30] Yumiella
    I'll use a healing spell on you.
[11:33] Alicia
    Huh? That's okay... I can use my own...
[11:36] Yumiella
    No need to be shy.
[11:37] Yumiella
    It's my apology for forgetting
    about that pitfall.
[11:49] Yumiella
    We've made it to the fiftieth
    floor, and the final enemy.
[11:52] Boss
    I am impressed.
[11:54] Boss
    I never expected a human to reach
    the deepest depths of my dungeon.
[12:01] Yumiella
    Start by just doing the best you can.
[12:03] Alicia
    I don't want to die... I don't want to die...
[12:05] Boss
    Foolish adventurers! Come at me!
[12:09] Yumiella
    Go on.
[12:12] Yumiella
    I'm sorry. I forgot my own strength.
[12:20] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia!
[12:21] Alicia
    Grandma!
[12:25] Alicia
    I don't want to die!
[12:27] Alicia
    Sun Rain!
[12:31] Alicia
    What? It didn't do anything?
[12:33] Yumiella
    I don't think that spell
    has any offensive power.
[12:39] Boss
    Is that all the strength you've got?
[12:48] Yumiella
    Maybe it's too soon for her
    to handle a boss on her own.
[12:53] Yumiella
    Yumiella Punch!
[13:04] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia!
[13:14] Yumiella
    It's all right. I finished off the boss.
[13:17] Yumiella
    It looks like the Amulet
    of Protection saved you.
[13:22] Yumiella
    It only works once, though, so you
    won't be able to use it again.
[13:26] Yumiella
    Now, let's open the treasure chest.
[13:30] Yumiella
    We can look forward to seeing what's in it.
[13:35] Yumiella
    Luck is definitely on your side, Miss Alicia.
[13:39] Yumiella
    Its a set of Amulets of Protection.
[13:41] Yumiella
    I don't need them, so you can have them.
[13:45] Alicia
    Thank you.
[13:50] Alicia
    Wh-What is this?
[13:51] Yumiella
    The light of transportation.
[13:53] Yumiella
    This dungeon automatically
[13:54] Yumiella
    transports you back to the surface
    once you've conquered it.
[14:06] Alicia
    Thanks, Miss Yumiella. I don't
    know how to express my gratitude.
[14:11] Yumiella
    Okay, you've had a potion.
[14:14] Yumiella
    Put on another Amulet of Protection,
    and we'll go in again.
[14:17] Alicia
    Huh?
[14:19] Yumiella
    You haven't beaten the boss,
    so you can't say you've conquered it.
[14:23] Yumiella
    Besides...
[14:24] Yumiella
    You might as well raise your
    level as high as you can.
[14:33] Boss
    I am impressed.
[14:34] Boss
    I never expected a human to reach
    the deepest depths of my dungeon.
[14:39] Yumiella
    Alicia made several more attempts
    to conquer the dungeon after that.
[14:46] Yumiella
    Her level rose in the most fascinating way,
[14:50] Yumiella
    and she acquired new
    spells one after another.
[14:54] Yumiella
    Just watching someone else get
    so much stronger is exciting...
[14:58] Yumiella
    but there's something abnormal about
    how quickly she's leveling up.
[15:02] Yumiella
    Is this the game plot's driving
    force in action again?
[15:09] Yumiella
    Yumiella Kick!
[15:11] Yumiella
    But she still couldn't manage
    to finish off the boss.
[15:18] Alicia
    I don't want to die.
[15:20] Yumiella
    The treasure chest she earned
    after several attempts
[15:23] Yumiella
    contained a bastard sword
    of the dark attribute.
[15:27] Yumiella
    Since Alicia's attribute is light,
    she'd have trouble using it,
[15:31] Yumiella
    so we agreed that I'd keep it.
[15:38] Yumiella
    We received a wind spear
    at one point, as well.
[15:43] Yumiella
    I'll give this to Patrick as a souvenir.
[15:45] Boss
    I am impressed.
[15:47] Boss
    I never expected a human to reach
    the deepest depths of my dungeon.
[15:54] Alicia
    I don't want to die!
[16:08] Yumiella
    And then, finally,
[16:10] Yumiella
    Alicia defeated the boss on her own.
[16:14] Yumiella
    That time, the chest contained a light sword.
[16:18] Yumiella
    This will be a powerful weapon in
    her battle against the Demon Lord.
[16:24] Yumiella
    Ow!
[16:25] Yumiella
    It looks like it reacts to dark magic.
[16:29] Yumiella
    Even the sword thinks I'm the
    Demon Lord. Now I'm just sad.
[16:35] Yumiella
    We've achieved our goal.
[16:37] Yumiella
    I think that's enough for today.
[16:40] Yumiella
    Well, Miss Alicia? Do you see
    how fun leveling up is now?
[16:45] Alicia
    Grandpa? But you died five years ago...
[16:50] Alicia
    What? I'm not ready for this place yet?
[16:59] Yumiella
    We still have time before curfew.
[17:02] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia, why don't we go to where
    the Demon Lord is and check things out?
[17:08] Yumiella
    We can still get back to the academy
    before curfew if we fly on Ryu.
[17:12] Alicia
    D-Don't be crazy!
    This isn't a sightseeing trip!
[17:17] Alicia
    Wait... how do you know
    where the Demon Lord is?
[17:22] Yumiella
    It's actually because I played
    the game so many times...
[17:28] Yumiella
    It's my level 99 instincts.
    Somehow, I just know which way to go.
[17:33] Yumiella
    So we can at least confirm his location.
[17:39] Yumiella
    Do you dislike animals, Miss Alicia?
[17:45] Yumiella
    Come to think of it, you got along
    nicely with that cat a while ago.
[17:50] Yumiella
    Do you dislike high places, then?
[17:56] Yumiella
    Then what are you so afraid of?
[18:00] Alicia
    Wh-Where did this come from?!
[18:03] Yumiella
    A bomb cyclone, maybe?
[18:09] Yumiella
    Ryu.
[18:23] Yumiella
    First a storm, then fog?
[18:25] Yumiella
    What's going on?
[18:27] Alicia
    Maybe the Demon Lord is trying to stop us.
[18:30] Yumiella
    I don't sense him, though.
[18:33] Yumiella
    This appears to be natural.
[18:36] Yumiella
    Hm? We passed by here earlier...
[18:39] Yumiella
    Ryu, be careful not to go the
    wrong way. Go where I tell you to.
[18:52] Yumiella
    We're just flying around in circles.
[18:56] Yumiella
    This isn't right.
[18:59] Yumiella
    It might be the driving force
    of the game's plot again.
[19:03] Yumiella
    Maybe we can't get close to the Demon
    Lord until it's the right time.
[19:09] Yumiella
    Ryu, let's turn back.
[19:12] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia, we're heading
    back to the academy.
[19:15] Alicia
    Really?!
[19:19] Yumiella
    Ryu.
[19:24] Yumiella
    It'll be a pain to keep having
    to catch her if we fly back.
[19:28] Alicia
    Help me!
[19:34] Student1
    Look!
[19:36] Student2
    What's that?
[19:43] Yumiella
    We've returned.
[19:46] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia is safe.
[19:51] Edwin
    Alicia!
[19:53] Alicia
    Ed! Will! Oz!
[19:58] Alicia
    I was so scared!
[20:01] Edwin
    You're all right. Thank goodness.
[20:04] William
    Where were you? We've been worried sick!
[20:07] Oswald
    Come, now. Don't cry.
[20:10] Patrick
    Nice job, Yumiella. Where in
    the world did you find her?
[20:14] Yumiella
    It's a long story.
[20:17] Yumiella
    Here. For you.
[20:19] Patrick
    For me?
[20:22] Yumiella
    Miss Alicia, all of these
    magic stones are yours.
[20:26] William
    I'll take them for her.
[20:28] William
    Th-These are heavy!
[20:30] Edwin
    Miss Yumiella, thank you for finding her.
[20:34] Edwin
    You have my deepest gratitude.
[20:35] Oswald
    Your 99 levels saved the day. Thank you.
[20:38] Alicia
    Thank you, Miss Yumiella!
[20:41] Yumiella
    I didn't do anything deserving of thanks.
[20:44] Yumiella
    More importantly, Ryu is hungry.
    Do you have anything he can—
[20:52] William
    Alicia!
[20:53] Yumiella
    I guess he's grown fond of you
    in the time we spent together.
[21:08] Edwin
    Th-That's incredible, Alicia.
[21:11] William
    She's stronger than us now.
[21:13] Oswald
    I'd say she's as powerful as a palace mage.
[21:18] Alicia
    I worked hard!
[21:22] Edwin
    N-No! We don't have time for this!
[21:25] Oswald
    We have to get stronger, too.
[21:27] William
    Or Alicia's gonna leave us behind!
[21:30] Patrick
    Looks like Miss Alicia
    gained quite a few levels.
[21:35] Yumiella
    I'm pretty sure she's well past level 50 now.
[21:38] Yumiella
    But she's still not strong enough
    to defeat the Demon Lord.
[21:42] Yumiella
    And the higher her level is,
    the harder it'll be to reach the next one.
[21:46] Alicia
    Keep at it, Ed!
[21:46] Yumiella
    So I think I'll take her to
    a harder dungeon next time.
[21:52] Patrick
    I think you'll make Alicia cry
    again if you say that to her.
[21:56] Yumiella
    It'll be fine. I think she understands
    how fun leveling up is now.
[22:02] Patrick
    I have to work harder, too.
