01:33.190 --> 01:35.350
<i>My name is Minamijuuji Sei.</i>

01:35.690 --> 01:40.440
<i>I was your typical, average high</i>
<i>school boy about to turn seventeen.</i>

01:40.980 --> 01:42.100
<i>Save us.</i>

01:42.190 --> 01:43.190
Huh?

01:43.350 --> 01:45.270
<i>- Please save us.</i>
- A voice?

01:45.350 --> 01:46.770
<i>If you can hear me, then please answer!</i>

01:46.850 --> 01:47.900
- What's going on?
- <i>If you can hear me, then please answer!</i>

01:48.310 --> 01:49.480
Where are you?

01:49.560 --> 01:51.900
I'll do anything I can to help!

01:51.980 --> 01:53.980
I'll call an ambulance if you need one!

01:59.310 --> 02:00.310
Oh!

02:00.400 --> 02:01.350
Did we...?

02:01.440 --> 02:03.190
W-We did it!

02:03.600 --> 02:05.190
We did it, Your Majesty!

02:05.270 --> 02:07.060
The Hero Summoning Ritual!

02:07.150 --> 02:08.980
It succeeded this time!

02:10.730 --> 02:11.770
Where...

02:12.310 --> 02:13.400
am I?

02:16.690 --> 02:18.850
...So there you have it.

02:18.940 --> 02:20.190
Uh...

02:21.150 --> 02:23.560
So this world is called Mizgarz,

02:23.650 --> 02:25.900
and you want me to defeat the devilfolk

02:25.980 --> 02:28.690
led by the Devil King
as well as the conqueror, Lufas?

02:28.770 --> 02:29.770
Yes.

02:29.850 --> 02:33.770
You're the only one
we can turn to now! Please!

02:34.020 --> 02:35.480
Please!

02:35.690 --> 02:37.100
Please!

02:39.730 --> 02:40.770
Father!

02:40.980 --> 02:43.310
When I grow up,

02:43.400 --> 02:45.350
I'm going to be a police officer like you!

02:45.440 --> 02:48.270
Hey, what do I have to do
to become a police officer?

02:48.350 --> 02:49.850
Well...

02:50.400 --> 02:52.310
You should become the kind of person

02:52.900 --> 02:55.900
who always extends a helping
hand when people are in trouble.

02:56.980 --> 02:58.100
<i>Honestly,</i>

02:58.730 --> 03:00.980
<i>I don't think I can handle</i>
<i>the idea of killing others.</i>

03:01.770 --> 03:02.770
<i>However,</i>

03:02.850 --> 03:08.060
<i>I doubt I can achieve the future I long</i>
<i>for if I abandon people seeking my aid.</i>

03:09.150 --> 03:10.520
<i>Besides, I doubt my father</i>

03:10.900 --> 03:13.980
<i>would abandon these</i>
<i>people from another world!</i>

03:14.980 --> 03:16.060
I'll...

03:16.270 --> 03:17.310
do it!

03:17.940 --> 03:20.350
Thank you, Hero.

03:20.440 --> 03:22.650
- Now our nation is secure!
- Thank you so much!

03:22.730 --> 03:26.650
- We'll be counting on your aid!
- Thank you so much!

03:26.730 --> 03:27.730
Right!

03:28.190 --> 03:30.770
<i>SEVERAL WEEKS LATER—</i>
<i>- I hyped myself up in that moment, but...</i>

03:32.940 --> 03:34.650
<i>my actual ability</i>

03:34.730 --> 03:36.900
<i>isn't measuring up at all!</i>

03:37.770 --> 03:40.100
I yield, Mr. Friedrich.

03:40.730 --> 03:42.440
<i>This is Mr. Friedrich,</i>

03:42.520 --> 03:45.060
<i>a master of the sword who is</i>
<i>known as the Sword Saint.</i>

03:45.480 --> 03:46.650
I'm sorry.

03:46.730 --> 03:48.730
I lost so quickly.

03:48.810 --> 03:51.600
<i>I don't have any complaints with the</i>
<i>special treatment of getting to train</i>

03:51.690 --> 03:53.980
<i>under the world's most powerful swordsman.</i>

03:54.650 --> 03:56.400
<i>Except for one thing.</i>

03:58.560 --> 04:01.440
<i>He won't speak the human language.</i>

04:01.810 --> 04:04.980
<i>I've been told that beastfolk are capable</i>
<i>of speaking our language, though.</i>

04:05.520 --> 04:07.100
Mr. Friedrich, umm...

04:07.190 --> 04:08.900
About the way I'm handling this sword...

04:09.350 --> 04:10.980
It's a little hard for me to use.

04:11.060 --> 04:12.150
Is there some technique?

04:12.480 --> 04:13.600
Thank you very much!

04:14.850 --> 04:18.850
<i>I still haven't ever heard</i>
<i>Mr. Friedrich speak.</i>

04:18.940 --> 04:24.310
The captain is angry with you for getting
distracted during your sparring match.

04:25.400 --> 04:26.770
Vice Captain!

04:27.270 --> 04:30.850
<i>The Vice Captain has been translating</i>
<i>Mr. Friedrich's words for me.</i>

04:39.850 --> 04:43.150
<i>He's basically just a giant cat at this point.</i>

04:43.230 --> 04:45.230
I don't get it.

04:45.310 --> 04:46.980
Sir Sei!

04:49.190 --> 04:51.150
What's the matter, Mr. Kross?

04:52.600 --> 04:55.900
We've finally gathered together
the party for your journey!

04:58.770 --> 05:00.980
Minamijuuji Sei.

05:01.060 --> 05:03.730
- It's time for your journey to begin.
- Yes, sir!

05:03.810 --> 05:06.190
Equipment, talented men...

05:06.270 --> 05:09.440
We've prepared the best in
everything we can offer.

05:09.520 --> 05:11.100
Now, allow me to introduce your team.

05:11.560 --> 05:15.560
The first is the pride of our
nation, the Sword Saint Friedrich.

05:15.650 --> 05:17.600
THE SWORD SAINT
FRIEDRICH

05:17.690 --> 05:20.480
You'll also have the Vice
Captain to assist Friedrich.

05:20.560 --> 05:21.520
VICE CAPTAIN
- Understood!

05:21.600 --> 05:22.900
Then there's the master of the divine arts,

05:22.980 --> 05:24.690
Kross the Acolyte.

05:24.770 --> 05:26.980
THE KING'S ADVISOR / KROSS NOZAN
- I vow to aid you, even if it costs me my life.

05:27.100 --> 05:31.560
Next is the rising star who graduated
top of her class from Svel's Magic Academy:

05:31.650 --> 05:32.650
Alfie.

05:32.730 --> 05:36.980
It's an honor to have been
chosen for this, Your Majesty.

05:37.100 --> 05:41.980
I've heard she's been taught swordsmanship
by her father, the mercenary Gantz.

05:42.060 --> 05:44.270
I'm sure she'll prove quite useful.

05:44.980 --> 05:51.480
We've also received steel golems
from Svel's Wise King Megrez.

05:51.900 --> 05:53.690
Plus, you'll constantly...

05:54.350 --> 05:59.400
...have a covert squad of ten Rangers to
support your journey from the shadows.

05:59.730 --> 06:01.270
When did they get there?

06:04.230 --> 06:05.900
<i>Amazing.</i>

06:05.980 --> 06:08.650
<i>So these people are going to be my party.</i>

06:08.730 --> 06:10.650
Now, Hero,

06:10.730 --> 06:12.100
the time to set out has come!

06:12.190 --> 06:15.350
<i>Oh, so I'm already heading out.</i>

06:15.600 --> 06:19.980
Go forth and strike down the evil
Devil King and the revived conqueror

06:20.100 --> 06:22.850
to bring light to these dark times!

06:24.270 --> 06:26.520
Yay!

06:27.020 --> 06:28.560
<i>This is the beginning...</i>

06:29.480 --> 06:31.770
<i>of my adventure to save the world.</i>

06:32.940 --> 06:35.850
<i>Frankly, I don't think</i>
<i>I'm the best pick for this,</i>

06:35.940 --> 06:38.400
<i>and I think there's someone more suitable,</i>

06:38.850 --> 06:40.400
<i>but even so, right now...</i>

06:42.060 --> 06:43.690
<i>I'm the Hero!</i>

06:50.730 --> 06:54.190
<i>Okay, so to keep everyone from worrying,</i>

06:54.310 --> 06:55.350
<i>I'll take the lead!</i>

07:02.980 --> 07:03.980
No way!

07:04.770 --> 07:05.810
Is that?!

07:09.350 --> 07:10.480
Impossible!

07:10.560 --> 07:13.230
That... That can't be...

07:22.270 --> 07:23.350
Everyone?

07:32.940 --> 07:34.770
THE CONQUEROR, LUFAS MAPHAAHL

07:35.650 --> 07:37.480
THE DEVIL KING, ORM

07:38.480 --> 07:43.650
W-W-Why are the Devil King
and Lufas Maphaahl <i>here</i>?!

07:49.900 --> 07:51.980
A WILD LUFAS MAPHAAHL

07:52.730 --> 07:54.980
AND A WILD DEVIL KING

07:55.850 --> 07:59.900
HAVE APPEARED AT THE SAME TIME!!!

07:59.980 --> 08:02.900
EPISODE 11 / A WILD LUFAS MAPHAAHL AND A WILD
DEVIL KING HAVE APPEARED AT THE SAME TIME!!!

08:02.980 --> 08:04.230
SOMETIME EARLIER...

08:04.310 --> 08:08.600
Laevateinn succeeded in summoning the Hero.

08:10.190 --> 08:13.230
<i>Apparently, they did summon a proper Hero.</i>

08:13.690 --> 08:18.190
<i>In the game, no one knew about</i>
<i>that until Alioth discovered it.</i>

08:18.480 --> 08:22.150
<i>And as far as I knew, there were</i>
<i>no other players aside from Alioth</i>

08:22.230 --> 08:24.350
<i>who obtained that Class.</i>

08:25.190 --> 08:27.770
<i>Taking the Hero Class made</i>
<i>Alioth's abilities grow</i>

08:27.850 --> 08:30.520
<i>so incredibly fast that it left</i>
<i>his prior classes in the dust,</i>

08:30.600 --> 08:33.480
<i>and he rapidly became the</i>
<i>highest-ranking player.</i>

08:35.400 --> 08:36.850
<i>This is bad.</i>

08:37.100 --> 08:39.900
<i>The devilfolk know about the Hero Summoning.</i>

08:41.810 --> 08:44.980
At this rate, said Hero will be killed.

08:45.060 --> 08:47.230
Precisely.

08:47.310 --> 08:50.190
The devilfolk will likely send one
of their Seven Luminaries to attack

08:50.270 --> 08:52.810
when the Hero starts his journey.

08:52.900 --> 08:54.900
That's true...

08:54.980 --> 08:58.560
Although that country has the barrier
created by the Sword King Alioth,

08:58.650 --> 09:01.270
so the likes of the Seven Luminaries
would just be beaten back.

09:01.600 --> 09:05.230
- Barrier?
- A Hero Skill, Soul Succession.

09:05.310 --> 09:07.900
You should remember its effect,
Mistress Lufas.

09:08.940 --> 09:10.400
<i>Soul Succession.</i>

09:10.730 --> 09:13.600
<i>An AOE Barrier Skill that buffs</i>
<i>allies' abilities within the area</i>

09:13.690 --> 09:17.690
<i>while simultaneously severely</i>
<i>lowering the abilities of enemies.</i>

09:17.770 --> 09:19.440
<i>The nasty part about that Skill</i>

09:19.520 --> 09:22.440
<i>is that the effect lasts</i>
<i>until combat ends.</i>

09:22.520 --> 09:24.310
<i>However, the price for that</i>

09:24.400 --> 09:25.980
<i>is that the user then dies</i>

09:26.060 --> 09:29.940
<i>and gets warped back to town without any</i>
<i>chance for resurrection magic to be used.</i>

09:30.690 --> 09:35.650
<i>In this world, its use must equal death.</i>

09:36.900 --> 09:39.600
I heard the Sword King Alioth
was sent to an eternal slumber

09:39.690 --> 09:44.350
after erecting the barrier
to protect his entire nation.

09:45.020 --> 09:48.850
So even now, Alioth continues
to protect his nation?

09:49.100 --> 09:51.980
At least that means
it's safe there.

09:52.100 --> 09:56.060
Even Aigo and I would struggle within it.

09:56.150 --> 10:00.520
So it should be safe so long as the
Devil King and his son don't show up.

10:00.600 --> 10:03.060
The flip side of that is if
the devil king or his son do show up,

10:03.150 --> 10:05.190
then they could risk facing potential ruin.

10:05.270 --> 10:08.480
After all, they're free to attack
anything outside of the barrier.

10:08.560 --> 10:10.900
<i>Yeah, that'd be checkmate.</i>

10:11.270 --> 10:15.440
<i>Though it's also a perfect opportunity</i>
<i>to defeat the Seven Luminaries.</i>

10:15.520 --> 10:16.480
Understood!

10:16.560 --> 10:18.690
We're heading back to Laevateinn for a bit!

10:19.440 --> 10:22.100
Are you planning to head
there by yourself, Master?

10:22.190 --> 10:24.440
Yes. If it's just the Seven Luminaries,

10:24.520 --> 10:27.150
then we can strike them down even if
the others attack together.

10:27.520 --> 10:29.650
Farewell. We shall return tomorrow.

10:40.310 --> 10:41.480
Of course.

10:41.980 --> 10:44.270
The Seven Luminaries couldn't
come close to that.

10:45.440 --> 10:47.810
You agree with that too,

10:50.190 --> 10:51.310
don't you,

10:52.230 --> 10:53.900
Devil King?

11:03.150 --> 11:05.980
<i>That young man is probably the Hero.</i>

11:06.980 --> 11:09.980
It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Alcor.

11:10.770 --> 11:12.270
I am Orm.

11:12.770 --> 11:15.560
The one you people call the Devil King.

11:19.940 --> 11:21.230
Alcor?

11:21.310 --> 11:23.100
It's what we call you.

11:23.190 --> 11:25.900
Anyone who meets you will die.

11:26.270 --> 11:29.560
So with fear and respect we call you

11:29.650 --> 11:32.850
Alcor: the star that portends death.

11:35.270 --> 11:37.900
It seems there's no need
to introduce ourselves,

11:37.980 --> 11:40.730
but it would be disrespectful not
to announce ourselves in return.

11:41.440 --> 11:43.600
We are Lufas Maphaahl,

11:43.980 --> 11:48.400
the one you all apparently call Alcor.

11:50.690 --> 11:53.060
We're surprised you came here yourself.

11:53.150 --> 11:55.480
Are you that afraid of the Hero?

11:55.560 --> 11:57.770
What foolish drivel.

11:57.850 --> 12:01.440
There are only two I fear
both now and in the past.

12:01.520 --> 12:03.980
One is the omnipotent Goddess,

12:04.100 --> 12:06.270
and the other...

12:06.940 --> 12:07.980
is you.

12:09.060 --> 12:12.850
Are you suggesting this
situation was unexpected then?

12:13.270 --> 12:14.270
No.

12:14.350 --> 12:17.690
I came here to meet you.

12:18.600 --> 12:20.730
Allow me an honest confession.

12:20.810 --> 12:24.650
I always avoided a direct
confrontation against you.

12:24.730 --> 12:25.730
Oh?

12:27.650 --> 12:29.770
It was only after I lost you that I realized...

12:30.400 --> 12:34.770
I realized you were the only one acting
outside of the Goddess's Scenario.

12:35.650 --> 12:40.150
We never should have let ourselves lose you.

12:41.270 --> 12:42.690
What do you mean?

12:44.060 --> 12:45.560
Do you want to know?

12:46.270 --> 12:49.350
Then try drawing it out of me by force.

12:49.810 --> 12:50.810
Bold!

12:50.900 --> 12:53.060
Then we'll grant your wish!

12:53.440 --> 12:54.980
Star of Death...

12:55.060 --> 12:58.770
Let's test if your strength has
waned over the years!

13:17.270 --> 13:19.150
What on earth is happening here?!

14:13.980 --> 14:15.440
Are they serious?

14:16.310 --> 14:18.980
They're asking us to defeat those two?

14:19.520 --> 14:20.810
How can we?

14:21.350 --> 14:25.270
What are we supposed to do here?!

15:14.440 --> 15:15.980
Impressive.

15:16.270 --> 15:17.900
I haven't felt such strength

15:17.980 --> 15:21.810
since my battle with the
Seven Heroes two hundred years ago.

15:22.230 --> 15:25.480
And we see you're worthy of calling
yourself the Devil King.

15:26.230 --> 15:28.850
<i>Devil King too stronk! Please nerf!</i>

15:28.940 --> 15:33.150
<i>I seriously want to apologize for treating</i>
<i>him like a joke of an official last boss!</i>

15:33.230 --> 15:36.600
<i>He's already shaved away fifty thousand HP!</i>

15:37.190 --> 15:40.810
<i>The Devil King's HP is undoubtedly</i>
<i>greater than Lufas's.</i>

15:41.190 --> 15:43.520
<i>Even if we're equals in combat,</i>

15:44.150 --> 15:45.230
<i>I'll lose.</i>

15:56.310 --> 15:58.980
Thank you, Mr. Friedrich.

16:09.350 --> 16:10.400
Hmm.

16:10.770 --> 16:12.810
As expected, Alcor.

16:13.270 --> 16:16.350
However, that's not the full
extent of your strength, is it?

16:16.980 --> 16:21.650
Or are you suggesting that I'm
not worth fighting seriously?

16:21.730 --> 16:23.270
What do you mean?

16:23.940 --> 16:25.520
Two hundred years ago...

16:26.310 --> 16:28.810
The power of the conqueror
who fought alone against the

16:28.900 --> 16:32.770
Seven Heroes and many other
great men was staggering.

16:33.730 --> 16:39.850
The Lufas Maphaahl that I feared was
more striking and enviously strong.

16:41.060 --> 16:44.560
<i>Does he mean Lufas was even more</i>
<i>crazy strong before I possessed her?!</i>

16:45.270 --> 16:46.520
Do you really...

16:46.770 --> 16:49.850
believe that's your limit?

16:50.900 --> 16:53.520
We don't understand
what you're suggesting.

16:57.520 --> 16:59.100
So <i>that's</i> what this is!

16:59.600 --> 17:00.980
That damn Goddess!

17:01.060 --> 17:03.310
She already laid countermeasures.

17:03.400 --> 17:05.940
What are you concluding on your own?

17:06.600 --> 17:10.310
It means that it's still
too early for us to fight.

17:11.440 --> 17:15.190
You won't be able to overcome
the Goddess's Scenario yet.

17:15.270 --> 17:17.150
The Goddess's Scenario?

17:17.230 --> 17:18.480
That's right.

17:19.310 --> 17:23.690
This whole world is following
the Goddess's Scenario.

17:26.230 --> 17:28.350
It's true for the devilfolk too.

17:28.770 --> 17:32.520
If anything, they're just the pawns used
to bring excitement to the scenario.

17:34.900 --> 17:37.940
Why do you think devilfolk kill people?

17:38.020 --> 17:40.230
It's not to expand their territory?

17:40.310 --> 17:41.560
That's part of it.

17:41.940 --> 17:44.480
Though that's merely one reason.

17:44.940 --> 17:47.020
The real reason...

17:49.060 --> 17:51.650
is because they can't live without killing!

17:52.690 --> 17:54.560
You must eat to live.

17:54.650 --> 17:56.520
You must sleep to function normally.

17:57.100 --> 17:59.900
It's the same kind of instinctual need.

18:00.190 --> 18:01.600
The devilfolk

18:01.690 --> 18:05.520
are defective beings who will
disappear if they don't kill people.

18:06.400 --> 18:09.980
Then the fragments of those who
disappear scatter throughout the world

18:10.100 --> 18:11.480
and become mana.

18:11.560 --> 18:13.770
That's the truth behind magic.

18:14.400 --> 18:18.100
No one could use magic without
the existence of the devilfolk.

18:18.770 --> 18:20.810
Yet because they exist,

18:20.900 --> 18:23.600
the fruitless cycle of
killing continues forever.

18:25.310 --> 18:28.400
The Goddess created the
devilfolk to be this,

18:28.480 --> 18:31.270
and left me in charge of managing them.

18:32.940 --> 18:35.440
<i>That's a backstory I never knew about.</i>

18:35.520 --> 18:38.520
<i>I always assumed that</i>
<i>mana existed in this world</i>

18:38.940 --> 18:41.480
<i>simply because that's how</i>
<i>it is in a fantasy world.</i>

18:43.190 --> 18:44.310
Manage them?

18:45.600 --> 18:48.350
Are you saying that you're different?

18:48.440 --> 18:53.400
<i>He's basically implying that</i>
<i>he's not one of the devilfolk.</i>

18:53.480 --> 18:59.480
Hold on! It sounds like you're saying the
Goddess herself desires this world's plight!

18:59.560 --> 19:03.100
Are you trying to claim,
Alovenus, the Goddess of Mercy,

19:03.190 --> 19:04.270
desires this killing?!

19:04.980 --> 19:07.400
That's right, weak peon.

19:07.480 --> 19:10.480
That's why that battle
happened all those years ago.

19:11.400 --> 19:13.520
You must have found it strange.

19:13.900 --> 19:16.980
You must have realized it was truly unnatural.

19:17.440 --> 19:21.100
Lufas Maphaahl certainly
was terrifying back then.

19:21.190 --> 19:26.770
Though there was never any real need to
defeat her before she clashed with us.

19:27.100 --> 19:28.980
Letting Lufas defeat me first,

19:29.060 --> 19:32.480
and then overthrowing her
afterward was the best choice.

19:33.600 --> 19:35.650
Yet the Seven Heroes

19:35.730 --> 19:38.400
sealed Lufas away without
waiting for that moment.

19:42.560 --> 19:45.600
<i>The Seven Heroes were defeated in</i>
<i>their battle against the Devil King,</i>

19:45.690 --> 19:48.900
<i>and that allowed the devilfolk to invade,</i>

19:48.980 --> 19:51.770
<i>robbing mankind of most of its habitat.</i>

19:52.520 --> 19:56.440
<i>Now they deeply regret it as a grave mistake.</i>

19:57.020 --> 19:58.400
Alcor.

19:58.480 --> 20:03.230
You were most likely the one who
reached the truth before anyone else.

20:03.730 --> 20:07.770
That's why you tried to
end the Goddess's Scenario

20:07.850 --> 20:11.400
by stepping forward to exterminate
the devilfolk when none other had,

20:11.480 --> 20:13.400
and united the world behind you.

20:13.480 --> 20:14.850
- However—
- Exgate!

20:15.310 --> 20:17.150
Morning Venus!

20:21.560 --> 20:24.940
Program selection, Fire!

20:32.690 --> 20:33.940
Libra?!

20:34.020 --> 20:38.480
Master, I propose our best option
is to retreat from this battle.

20:38.560 --> 20:40.980
Wait a moment!
The Hero and his party are still there!

20:41.100 --> 20:43.190
- And the Devil King was about to—
- Retreat!

20:43.400 --> 20:45.900
Listen to us!

20:49.810 --> 20:51.560
That was audacious of you.

20:51.650 --> 20:55.480
Speak now. I've erected a barrier around us.

20:57.190 --> 20:58.560
I expected no less, Your Majesty.

20:58.900 --> 21:00.650
What did you think
you were doing, Venus?

21:01.230 --> 21:03.770
No, Dina?

21:03.850 --> 21:07.350
Of course it was merely an
act to gain their trust.

21:07.440 --> 21:10.350
That golem was there watching me, after all.

21:10.440 --> 21:13.520
Your attack lacked restraint for that excuse.

21:13.770 --> 21:17.350
That's because I had faith
in Your Majesty's strength.

21:17.440 --> 21:19.190
You weave excuses well.

21:19.270 --> 21:21.400
Did you know?

21:21.480 --> 21:23.810
That Lufas Maphaahl was weakened?

21:24.940 --> 21:25.980
Yes.

21:26.190 --> 21:28.770
I strongly doubt it,

21:28.850 --> 21:31.690
but surely that wasn't your doing, was it?

21:32.400 --> 21:33.730
Of course not.

21:33.810 --> 21:37.690
There's no way someone like me
could pull off a feat like that.

21:38.100 --> 21:39.480
If anyone could,

21:40.060 --> 21:43.980
it would only be the omnipotent Goddess.

21:51.980 --> 21:53.060
They're gone?!

22:10.940 --> 22:13.480
