WEBVTT

00:03.980 --> 00:06.560
I can take a walk by myself, you know.

00:06.650 --> 00:10.600
We cannot take any risks
while His Majesty is away.

00:42.230 --> 00:44.350
Kilika is far more amazing than I am.

00:44.690 --> 00:46.480
She improves herself every day.

00:46.560 --> 00:48.560
While Princess Kilika is certainly impressive,

00:48.650 --> 00:52.520
you must understand that you will be the one
to lead our nation someday, Princess Amelia.

00:56.270 --> 00:59.810
I wish to terminate our
engagement, Princess Amelia.

01:00.400 --> 01:03.520
I wasn't the one who decided it.
Talk to my father.

01:03.600 --> 01:06.560
Liam says he doesn't want to marry you.

01:07.270 --> 01:09.980
It's because you're the Child of Blight.

01:21.150 --> 01:24.350
You have committed an unforgivable sin.

01:24.440 --> 01:25.770
I did no such thing!

01:25.850 --> 01:28.230
The Child of Blight
cannot be heir to the throne!

01:28.310 --> 01:30.310
That mantle belongs to Princess Kilika!

01:40.230 --> 01:43.730
Kilika, I'll leave right away. So please...

01:43.810 --> 01:46.190
What, you want me to just let you go?

01:46.270 --> 01:48.520
You have no such right, Child of Blight.

01:48.600 --> 01:51.020
Hey, can you tone it down a little?

01:51.310 --> 01:55.440
Who are you, and why would
you stand by this criminal?

01:55.520 --> 02:00.520
Just your friendly neighborhood assassin
who got to know her recently.

02:12.230 --> 02:16.230
MY STATUS AS AN ASSASSIN

02:16.310 --> 02:23.150
OBVIOUSLY EXCEEDS THE HERO'S

03:38.440 --> 03:40.690
Now you've gone and wounded Liam?

03:40.770 --> 03:43.100
Just adding to your list of crimes, I see.

03:43.190 --> 03:47.150
You keep calling her a criminal and so forth.
So what exactly has she done, hmm?

03:51.150 --> 03:55.690
My own sister gave me poison
disguised as a healing potion.

03:55.770 --> 03:59.060
And nobody is allowed to harm a royal.
Not even another royal!

03:59.150 --> 04:00.770
- How awful!
- Pure evil!

04:00.850 --> 04:02.650
- Damn Child of Blight!
- Princess Kilika...

04:02.730 --> 04:04.980
No! It really was a healing potion!

04:05.310 --> 04:07.350
You'd accuse me of concocting all this?

04:09.480 --> 04:10.850
Do you see now?

04:11.730 --> 04:15.520
Granted, you've returned a fugitive to us,
and for that, you have my thanks.

04:18.400 --> 04:19.230
Akira!

04:19.310 --> 04:21.190
Don't look into her eyes!

04:27.350 --> 04:28.850
It's too late.

04:28.940 --> 04:31.850
I've already activated my Mesmerize skill.

04:32.150 --> 04:34.440
This man's heart now belongs to me.

04:35.900 --> 04:38.560
So there's nobody left to take your side.

04:38.940 --> 04:41.060
- Apologize.
- Huh?

04:42.060 --> 04:46.350
Dismiss Mesmerize right now
and apologize to Akira.

04:47.770 --> 04:52.560
Only he has the right to decide
how he acts and feels.

04:52.850 --> 04:56.690
You're crossing the line by trying
to take that away from him!

04:57.270 --> 05:01.230
Where's this coming from?
You've never snapped at me before!

05:01.310 --> 05:02.600
Oh, settle down.

05:04.690 --> 05:06.270
It didn't affect me.

05:07.480 --> 05:09.150
My Mesmerize didn't take?

05:09.440 --> 05:12.690
It doesn't work on someone
of a much higher level.

05:12.770 --> 05:16.060
That's always the case
with mind-control skills.

05:16.150 --> 05:19.480
I simply don't believe that
this nobody is stronger than me!

05:20.020 --> 05:24.480
You can call me names <i>after</i>
you admit you framed your sister.

05:24.770 --> 05:25.980
Me? Frame her?

05:26.480 --> 05:31.350
I find it hard to believe she'd lie
to anyone in order to hurt them.

05:33.150 --> 05:35.600
Soldiers! Kill this man!

05:42.690 --> 05:43.730
Men!

05:45.270 --> 05:47.100
Put your bows away!

05:47.480 --> 05:48.850
Father?

05:50.270 --> 05:51.730
What is happening here?

05:52.020 --> 05:55.850
Your Majesty, Princess Amelia
committed the grave sin of...

05:55.940 --> 05:57.730
I wasn't asking you.

05:57.810 --> 05:59.850
Kilika, what is all this about?

06:00.230 --> 06:03.230
F-Father, I wasn't expecting you back
from your inspection so soon.

06:03.520 --> 06:08.690
Business called me back.
Now, I am asking you the meaning of this.

06:10.060 --> 06:12.270
Princess Kilika did nothing wrong!

06:12.350 --> 06:14.440
This is all Princess Amelia's fault.

06:14.520 --> 06:16.850
It is as the soldiers say, Your Majesty.

06:18.060 --> 06:21.900
You used Mesmerize on the troops?
Dismiss it at once.

06:26.730 --> 06:28.900
I shall hand down your punishment later.

06:30.230 --> 06:33.900
I will see to it that Kilika makes up
for what she's done.

06:33.980 --> 06:35.150
Father...

06:35.230 --> 06:37.150
Allow me to apologize in her stead.

06:37.400 --> 06:41.520
It was cowardly of her to attack,
overwhelming you with numbers.

06:41.900 --> 06:44.350
Now then, if you're done here, kindly leave.

06:44.900 --> 06:49.270
Listen, Father! Akira helped me
and brought me all the way here.

06:49.350 --> 06:54.230
Whatever their reasons, other races
are not to set foot in our lands.

06:55.600 --> 06:59.980
Then I'm going with Akira.
I shouldn't be here anyway.

07:00.810 --> 07:03.060
You're mistaken if you expect
to waltz out of here!

07:03.980 --> 07:08.190
You are my successor. It is your duty
to lead this kingdom one day.

07:08.270 --> 07:12.100
She has the right to decide
what she wants to do.

07:12.520 --> 07:14.690
Stay out of this, outsider.

07:14.770 --> 07:17.730
I may be an outsider, but that only means
I've got no reason to heed you.

07:18.980 --> 07:22.600
I'm willing to do whatever it takes
to defend her choice.

07:23.900 --> 07:25.980
Y-Your Majesty...

07:26.980 --> 07:30.480
My deepest apologies. I've disgraced myself.

07:30.560 --> 07:32.480
By this man's hand?

07:32.560 --> 07:33.690
Yes.

07:33.770 --> 07:36.940
Then you meant it when you said
you'd do whatever it takes.

07:38.560 --> 07:40.520
Very well. I challenge you to a duel.

07:40.600 --> 07:42.980
The victor will have the final say.

07:43.270 --> 07:44.440
Father!

07:44.770 --> 07:47.520
Kilika shall fight as my proxy.

07:49.810 --> 07:54.940
As per elven tradition, the duel
will be held beneath the Holy Tree!

07:58.770 --> 08:01.690
I'm so sorry, Akira. I dragged you into this.

08:01.770 --> 08:04.980
Don't worry about it. I chose
to stick my nose in your business.

08:05.810 --> 08:08.850
By the way, what's this "Child of Blight"
crap she was going on about?

08:09.440 --> 08:14.600
Elven legend says that with pairs of twins,
one won't resemble their parents.

08:14.690 --> 08:18.150
They are a Child of Blight that will
bring nothing but calamity to our land.

08:18.230 --> 08:20.810
Wait, you two are twins?

08:20.900 --> 08:26.810
Wasn't the need to kill the blighted twin
deemed myth and done away with long ago?

08:26.900 --> 08:31.560
Yes, but I nevertheless do not share
my parents' hair or eye colors.

08:31.650 --> 08:32.730
That much is fact.

08:32.810 --> 08:36.270
I still can't believe your own flesh
and blood would call you such a name.

08:36.350 --> 08:38.850
She must know how much it hurts you.

08:39.400 --> 08:43.150
I think your hair and eyes
are really pretty, though.

08:43.230 --> 08:44.350
Huh?

08:54.480 --> 08:56.770
Master, your Conceal Presence...

08:56.850 --> 08:58.440
I know. I won't use it.

08:58.520 --> 09:01.770
This'll be pointless if I don't score
a clear and decisive victory.

09:02.230 --> 09:05.480
Akira, Kilika is the finest
elven swordsman alive.

09:05.560 --> 09:06.690
Be on your guard.

09:06.980 --> 09:09.190
You sure hold her in high regard.

09:09.600 --> 09:11.480
We used to be close.

09:11.560 --> 09:14.980
I've seen how tirelessly
she works to better herself.

09:16.810 --> 09:19.190
She's my darling little sister.

09:21.440 --> 09:24.940
Prove you are a worthy royal
by handling this affair.

09:25.730 --> 09:27.440
I will see it done.

09:34.940 --> 09:37.770
Do you believe you can beat me
without unsheathing your blade?

09:38.230 --> 09:40.650
I don't want to slip up and kill you.

09:40.980 --> 09:45.650
Try it if you'd like. You'd only be giving me
a better chance to regain my father's trust.

09:47.100 --> 09:48.270
Amelia.

09:48.650 --> 09:51.400
You got angry on my behalf earlier.

09:52.560 --> 09:54.650
It showed just how much you care.

09:55.310 --> 09:56.400
Thank you.

09:57.850 --> 09:59.400
Anyway, just sit tight.

09:59.900 --> 10:03.400
Once I beat her, you'll be free
to do whatever you wish.

10:05.520 --> 10:06.650
Akira...

10:08.190 --> 10:10.770
In my royal name, I hereby sanction this duel.

10:13.980 --> 10:15.230
Begin!

10:24.520 --> 10:27.770
<i>I see she's not considered</i>
<i>the elves' best for nothing.</i>

10:32.150 --> 10:37.190
Your sister is pretty skilled,
but Master still has the upper hand.

10:37.730 --> 10:39.850
Think you've got this in the bag, do you?

10:39.940 --> 10:41.810
Surrender before you get hurt.

10:42.310 --> 10:43.730
Don't you dare mock me!

10:48.310 --> 10:49.400
What?

10:52.100 --> 10:53.440
A wind element buff?

10:53.520 --> 10:55.440
It's the only magic Kilika can use.

10:55.520 --> 10:58.060
However, she put all her focus
into mastering it.

11:04.560 --> 11:06.310
Why are you crying?

11:06.400 --> 11:09.900
Nonsense! Do you not see this dazzling smile?!

11:10.230 --> 11:12.350
You call that a smile?

11:22.350 --> 11:23.650
Give it a rest already.

11:24.520 --> 11:26.770
Even now, you're still precious to her.

11:27.270 --> 11:29.520
Can't you just make up?

11:29.600 --> 11:31.600
Over my dead body!

11:32.690 --> 11:36.100
I could never make peace with the girl
who took everything from me!

11:53.770 --> 11:55.520
<i>Night! Keep Amelia safe!</i>

11:55.810 --> 11:56.940
<i>As you wish!</i>

12:00.690 --> 12:02.520
I have nothing left!

12:02.600 --> 12:06.440
My gifted sister took it all away!

12:07.690 --> 12:09.440
Why do I look different?

12:09.520 --> 12:12.520
Your hair's so pretty! I love it!

12:14.060 --> 12:16.770
We've appraised Princess Amelia's class.

12:16.850 --> 12:18.980
She is a spirit medium,
like the ones of legend.

12:19.060 --> 12:20.310
A spirit medium?

12:20.400 --> 12:25.400
A messenger from the gods who can bend
the world to her will should she awaken?

12:25.980 --> 12:30.810
Our kingdom is sure to prosper with her gift.

12:32.770 --> 12:36.600
On that day, everybody
stopped caring about me!

12:37.190 --> 12:38.190
So I...

12:38.270 --> 12:41.810
I won't stop! Not until I take it all back!

12:41.900 --> 12:44.100
Enough, Kilika!

12:44.190 --> 12:45.270
Princess Amelia!

12:45.850 --> 12:46.900
Liam?

12:47.650 --> 12:50.440
Use this to save Princess Kilika.

12:54.690 --> 12:55.690
Could it be?

12:59.230 --> 13:02.060
A branch of the Holy Tree,
which holds purifying powers!

13:18.650 --> 13:19.980
Princess Amelia?

13:21.520 --> 13:24.400
My Mesmerize is coming undone...

13:25.900 --> 13:28.350
I'm going to lose everything all over again.

13:28.440 --> 13:32.520
My sister's going to take it all away!

13:32.600 --> 13:35.730
- No! You have it all wrong, Princess Kilika!
- Kilika!

13:36.020 --> 13:37.270
<i>If I dodge, those behind me die!</i>

13:37.350 --> 13:41.100
Nobody pays me any notice!
I'm right here, can't you see?!

13:41.690 --> 13:42.940
Shadow Magic...

13:43.810 --> 13:44.980
activate!

13:47.100 --> 13:48.350
Devour it all!

13:57.020 --> 13:58.150
Not good!

13:58.230 --> 13:59.270
Consume me instead!

14:09.060 --> 14:10.100
What the...

14:10.600 --> 14:15.480
A shadow element buff? No... What is that?

14:34.350 --> 14:38.310
You said nobody takes notice of you.

14:38.400 --> 14:39.980
You're just blind to those who do.

14:42.770 --> 14:45.150
Did you come to laugh at me?

14:45.650 --> 14:50.520
Liam, you must be stronger than I thought
if my Mesmerize wore off so soon.

14:50.850 --> 14:52.810
You have it all wrong, Princess Kilika.

14:53.100 --> 14:54.650
How am I wrong?

14:54.730 --> 14:57.060
You ran back to her as soon
as you came to your senses,

14:57.150 --> 14:59.400
and had her free everyone of my Mesmerize.

14:59.690 --> 15:03.690
Kilika, Liam was never under the effect
of your skill in the first place.

15:03.770 --> 15:05.480
Stop insulting me!

15:05.560 --> 15:10.150
Just pronounce my punishment already!
What is it, exile? Execution?

15:10.230 --> 15:12.850
If anyone ought to be punished, it is me.

15:13.810 --> 15:18.520
Amelia didn't take anything from you.
That was all me.

15:19.100 --> 15:21.940
Father? Why are you talking nonsense now too?

15:22.770 --> 15:23.980
Kilika...

15:24.690 --> 15:28.020
Let me restore your memories now.

15:28.100 --> 15:30.980
I dismiss my Forgetting skill.

15:41.600 --> 15:44.400
You're working as hard as ever,
Princess Kilika.

15:44.480 --> 15:46.730
I must do more than practice swings.

15:46.810 --> 15:49.100
- I'm going to go train in secret!
- But...

15:49.770 --> 15:51.100
Princess Kilika.

15:52.980 --> 15:57.230
Father said I could go
as far as the third floor.

15:57.310 --> 15:58.980
You won't get stronger there.

16:00.850 --> 16:02.850
But I promised...

16:04.600 --> 16:05.980
You can have this.

16:08.020 --> 16:11.850
It'll summon monsters
perfect for leveling you up.

16:37.980 --> 16:38.980
How?!

16:39.730 --> 16:42.900
I thought labyrinth monsters
couldn't get outside!

16:42.980 --> 16:46.020
<i>I have to stop them here</i>
<i>or they'll attack my people!</i>

16:56.230 --> 16:57.770
Princess Kilika!

16:58.150 --> 17:00.060
- Liam!
- Run away!

17:00.150 --> 17:01.150
But...

17:21.440 --> 17:22.690
Liam...

17:23.100 --> 17:26.770
Liam perished right in front of your eyes.

17:27.190 --> 17:31.150
The guilt nearly destroyed your mind.

17:32.980 --> 17:35.520
I had to make you forget it all.

17:36.440 --> 17:41.150
Thankfully, Amelia's Spellcraft saved the day.

17:41.730 --> 17:48.980
That day, she created two magic skills:
Gravity and Resurrection.

17:58.940 --> 18:02.400
You must have felt everyone
turned their backs on you.

18:02.480 --> 18:05.310
That wasn't only because we were
blessed with a spirit medium.

18:05.400 --> 18:08.560
It was because you were
the only one unaware of the truth.

18:08.650 --> 18:09.980
The only one...?

18:10.060 --> 18:15.230
To keep you from finding out,
everyone walled themselves off from you.

18:15.310 --> 18:17.600
I was no exception.

18:19.850 --> 18:22.850
If you'd proved yourself
a worthy royal in this duel,

18:22.940 --> 18:26.230
you could have held your head high
without relying on Mesmerize.

18:26.690 --> 18:31.650
I wanted you to have that pillar of support
before revealing the truth to you.

18:31.730 --> 18:33.350
And so you used me, huh?

18:33.810 --> 18:38.350
Yet I ended up having to reveal this
in a manner I did not expect.

18:38.770 --> 18:40.100
I was too thoughtless.

18:40.560 --> 18:45.100
I wanted to separate you two
before your hatred grew any further.

18:45.440 --> 18:48.400
That's why I helped you exile Princess Amelia.

18:49.440 --> 18:52.310
So my skill really didn't work on you?

18:52.400 --> 18:58.350
A leaf from the Holy Tree entered
Liam's body while he was being resurrected.

18:58.440 --> 18:59.900
He is immune to Mesmerize.

19:00.230 --> 19:05.690
I was truly taken by your
ceaseless efforts to better yourself.

19:06.270 --> 19:09.150
I couldn't bring myself to stop you,
and that is my failing.

19:10.100 --> 19:12.190
What is wrong with me?

19:12.270 --> 19:15.650
I mistook all your kindness for neglect,

19:15.730 --> 19:20.940
and I blamed it all on my sister
who fixed everything I broke...

19:21.020 --> 19:22.190
I'm such a fool!

19:22.270 --> 19:23.650
No, you're not!

19:25.150 --> 19:27.400
I think you're amazing.

19:27.480 --> 19:32.230
You always put your heart into everything,
before and after that incident.

19:32.310 --> 19:36.810
Besides, I know how kind
and caring you are deep down.

19:38.770 --> 19:40.690
Trust me. I remember it all.

19:42.230 --> 19:44.440
Sister... I'm so sorry!

19:44.730 --> 19:46.190
Princess Kilika!

19:46.270 --> 19:48.020
Treat her wounds at once!

19:48.100 --> 19:50.230
We need potions and bandages! Hurry!

19:50.310 --> 19:51.400
Get moving!

19:51.480 --> 19:53.480
So glad you're safe, Princess Kilika...

19:54.440 --> 19:56.810
- See? Everybody cares.
- Indeed.

19:57.190 --> 19:58.730
Even without Mesmerize,

19:58.810 --> 20:00.940
we all adore her.

20:01.480 --> 20:03.440
I've always wanted her to know that.

20:03.770 --> 20:07.690
<i>Yeah? I guess your little declaration</i>
<i>back there was all part of the plan.</i>

20:10.690 --> 20:13.560
All's well that ends well.
This is how things were meant to be.

20:13.980 --> 20:16.400
So I won that duel, I take it?

20:16.480 --> 20:19.350
Yes, which is why I've thrown you
this welcome party.

20:19.650 --> 20:22.770
And this one's free
to do as she pleases, right?

20:22.850 --> 20:24.440
I am a man of my word.

20:24.520 --> 20:26.600
So, where will you be going?

20:26.980 --> 20:29.520
The beastfolk continent, for starters.

20:30.520 --> 20:35.600
My familiar says it's the perfect place
to procure and get work done on weapons.

20:37.690 --> 20:39.650
Akira, come with me.

20:41.400 --> 20:42.480
What is it?

20:43.150 --> 20:44.850
Call my name.

20:44.940 --> 20:45.980
Huh?

20:46.650 --> 20:49.310
Don't call me "you" or "this one."

20:49.850 --> 20:53.730
Say my name like you did before the duel.

20:55.650 --> 20:56.770
Now.

21:00.270 --> 21:01.480
Amelia.

21:04.480 --> 21:05.480
One more time.

21:05.770 --> 21:06.770
Amelia.

21:06.850 --> 21:08.020
Again!

21:08.100 --> 21:09.100
Amelia.

21:09.650 --> 21:10.980
I'm so happy!

21:11.480 --> 21:12.850
You weirdo.

21:13.190 --> 21:17.770
I'll go wherever you go, Akira.
We'll be together forever!

21:17.850 --> 21:20.230
Damn, girl. Fine, if that's what you want.

21:20.310 --> 21:21.730
"Girl"?

21:22.020 --> 21:23.100
Amelia.

21:25.980 --> 21:27.100
Again.

21:27.730 --> 21:28.730
- Amelia.
- Sheesh.

21:28.810 --> 21:29.810
Sheesh.

21:29.900 --> 21:31.940
- I'll call you by your name too.
- Both Lady Amelia and Master are like children.

21:32.020 --> 21:33.980
- You have been all along.
- Both Lady Amelia and Master are like children.

21:34.060 --> 21:35.980
This is unbearable to watch.

21:42.310 --> 21:44.770
I'm sorry, Asahina-kun.

21:44.850 --> 21:46.480
We couldn't wait for Akira any longer.

21:46.560 --> 21:48.600
Don't be. I've made my peace with it.

21:48.690 --> 21:53.520
We weren't going to level up any further
hunting monsters in Yamato anyway. Plus...

21:53.600 --> 21:59.440
Everyone but you two
will need weapon upgrades soon.

21:59.520 --> 22:01.900
Which means we have but one destination:

22:02.850 --> 22:04.690
the continent of beastfolk!

22:07.600 --> 22:09.980
