1
00:00:08,425 --> 00:00:10,427
The True Demon King has died.

2
00:00:12,178 --> 00:00:13,263
was defeated by somebody.

3
00:00:14,222 --> 00:00:16,224
To this very day,

4
00:00:16,266 --> 00:00:19,269
that lone Hero remains unknown, both in name and existence.

5
00:00:20,186 --> 00:00:22,272
Now the age of fear has come to an end,

6
00:00:23,189 --> 00:00:26,234
that person has to be chosen.

7
00:00:40,248 --> 00:00:45,211
ISHURA

8
00:01:51,861 --> 00:01:54,822
New Principality of Lithia

9
00:02:06,834 --> 00:02:08,920
Minia

10
00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:10,922
Master Taren!

11
00:02:11,839 --> 00:02:12,882
Hmm?

12
00:02:14,926 --> 00:02:16,844
What's the matter, young boy?

13
00:02:17,845 --> 00:02:19,847
I'm afraid I can't give you any sugar sweets.

14
00:02:19,889 --> 00:02:23,893
My dad says that you help him a lot.

15
00:02:24,852 --> 00:02:27,855
He says he's been getting more customers, so I wanted to thank you.

16
00:02:27,855 --> 00:02:28,898
Mm.

17
00:02:28,898 --> 00:02:29,899
I see.

18
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:35,863
But it's not like I've been helping your dad personally.

19
00:02:35,863 --> 00:02:41,869
Creating plans to ensure the citizens of Lithia don't suffer is my job.

20
00:02:41,911 --> 00:02:42,912
Is that so?

21
00:02:43,830 --> 00:02:44,831
It sure is.

22
00:02:44,872 --> 00:02:47,875
Just like opening the store every day is your dad's job.

23
00:02:48,835 --> 00:02:50,878
If you want to thank someone, thank your dad.

24
00:02:51,838 --> 00:02:53,923
B-But handicrafts…

25
00:02:54,882 --> 00:02:56,926
I learned handicrafts at the kids club.

26
00:02:58,886 --> 00:03:01,889
So I made this for you, Master Taren.

27
00:03:02,849 --> 00:03:04,851
It's perfect for keeping my hair bands in.

28
00:03:04,892 --> 00:03:06,894
I'll use it well.

29
00:03:08,896 --> 00:03:10,857
Study hard, young boy.

30
00:03:10,898 --> 00:03:13,901
Become a fine citizen of Lithia, like your dad.

31
00:03:13,901 --> 00:03:14,902
I will!

32
00:03:25,371 --> 00:03:26,789
Taren the Guarded

33
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,041
She was an outstanding talent

34
00:03:29,041 --> 00:03:32,044
and excelled not just in literary and martial arts but in politics too.

35
00:03:32,086 --> 00:03:36,132
When the True Demon King died,
she declared independence from Aureatia.

36
00:03:37,091 --> 00:03:40,052
Acknowledged as the self-proclaimed Demon King,

37
00:03:40,052 --> 00:03:42,054
she possesses her own military force

38
00:03:43,055 --> 00:03:45,099
and is preparing for conflict with Aureatia.

39
00:03:46,058 --> 00:03:50,062
Episode 3

40
00:03:52,106 --> 00:03:55,026
Central Citadel of Lithia

41
00:03:58,112 --> 00:04:01,073
War with Aureatia is coming.

42
00:04:01,073 --> 00:04:03,117
I must hasten all preparations.

43
00:04:04,076 --> 00:04:06,120
I won't miss this chance for absolute victory.

44
00:04:19,091 --> 00:04:21,052
Dakai,

45
00:04:21,052 --> 00:04:22,053
I know you're back.

46
00:04:22,094 --> 00:04:23,137
No way.

47
00:04:25,056 --> 00:04:26,098
How did you know?

48
00:04:26,140 --> 00:04:28,100
Just a guess.

49
00:04:29,060 --> 00:04:32,104
I always say that when I come back to the office.

50
00:04:32,104 --> 00:04:36,067
I guess it was worth it since I got to see that reaction of yours.

51
00:04:36,108 --> 00:04:38,069
You're really something,

52
00:04:38,110 --> 00:04:39,111
Miss Taren.

53
00:04:40,071 --> 00:04:43,074
Did you find what I asked you to get from Nagan?

54
00:04:43,074 --> 00:04:45,034
I wouldn't be back otherwise.

55
00:04:47,119 --> 00:04:48,120
Hm.

56
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,122
It's what you wanted, right?

57
00:04:50,122 --> 00:04:53,084
Without a doubt. The Cold Star.

58
00:04:54,085 --> 00:04:57,088
You truly are remarkably resourceful, Dakai.

59
00:04:58,047 --> 00:05:00,091
So, what exactly is that thing?

60
00:05:01,050 --> 00:05:05,096
A magic item, documented in records
from before the era of the True Demon King.

61
00:05:06,055 --> 00:05:08,099
I suspected that the self-proclaimed Demon King Kiyazuna

62
00:05:08,099 --> 00:05:11,060
had been using it to power the Great Labyrinth.

63
00:05:11,060 --> 00:05:12,103
Looks like I was right.

64
00:05:13,062 --> 00:05:14,105
After passing through the central crystal,

65
00:05:14,105 --> 00:05:18,109
sunlight is changed into explosive light,
capable of even bombarding a city.

66
00:05:20,027 --> 00:05:21,070
Sounds dangerous.

67
00:05:21,070 --> 00:05:25,074
Not a single thing cast out from the Distant World is gentle in nature.

68
00:05:25,074 --> 00:05:27,034
Enchanted swords and magic items…

69
00:05:27,076 --> 00:05:29,120
Aberrant entities that cannot be tolerated

70
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,081
in the Distant World, flow into our world.

71
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,083
Are you talking about me?

72
00:05:34,083 --> 00:05:37,128
Surely you don't consider yourself to be a gentle being?

73
00:05:38,087 --> 00:05:39,130
That sword certainly isn't.

74
00:05:40,089 --> 00:05:43,050
The Magicked Blade of Razhucort, which prides itself on

75
00:05:43,092 --> 00:05:45,136
seizing the initiative in any attack.

76
00:05:45,136 --> 00:05:48,055
It was cast out from the Distant World too, right?

77
00:05:48,097 --> 00:05:49,098
Perhaps.

78
00:05:49,140 --> 00:05:52,101
What about the other magic items besides the Cold Star?

79
00:05:53,060 --> 00:05:54,103
Did you have time to check?

80
00:05:55,062 --> 00:05:56,063
I looked around.

81
00:05:56,063 --> 00:05:59,066
But I didn't find anything else of value.

82
00:05:59,066 --> 00:06:00,067
That's fine.

83
00:06:00,067 --> 00:06:04,071
The Cold Star is all I need.

84
00:06:04,071 --> 00:06:07,074
So you don't mind that I didn't
bring the Dungeon Golem back?

85
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:09,118
I don't know who defeated it,

86
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:11,120
but it looked like a serious piece of gear.

87
00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:14,081
Those self-proclaimed Demon Kings outdid themselves.

88
00:06:14,123 --> 00:06:17,126
I thought you defeated it.

89
00:06:18,044 --> 00:06:21,047
Well, it just means there's someone else as strong as me.

90
00:06:21,047 --> 00:06:22,048
Somewhere out there.

91
00:06:23,132 --> 00:06:26,052
The seal was in its right shoulder.

92
00:06:26,052 --> 00:06:27,053
Am I right?

93
00:06:27,136 --> 00:06:30,056
I haven't heard anything specific yet.

94
00:06:30,097 --> 00:06:33,059
Aureatia collected the wreckage.

95
00:06:34,018 --> 00:06:35,061
That's a shame.

96
00:06:35,061 --> 00:06:38,064
I would have liked to see you use that sword.

97
00:06:38,064 --> 00:06:40,107
Your expectations are too high.

98
00:06:40,107 --> 00:06:42,068
I'm not a swordsman.

99
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:45,112
Still, now that you found the magic item I wanted,

100
00:06:45,112 --> 00:06:48,074
I'll have to give you another job.

101
00:06:49,033 --> 00:06:50,076
For nearly two months now,

102
00:06:50,117 --> 00:06:53,079
merchant caravans going in and out of Lithia have come under attack.

103
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,123
Probably by outlaws sent from Aureatia.

104
00:06:57,083 --> 00:06:58,083
So I've heard.

105
00:06:58,083 --> 00:07:01,128
But isn't Regnejee protecting the skies of Lithia?

106
00:07:02,046 --> 00:07:04,048
A bunch of outlaws shouldn't pose any threat.

107
00:07:04,131 --> 00:07:07,134
If they steal our cargo on its way to Lithia,

108
00:07:08,052 --> 00:07:10,095
then not even an army of wyverns can help us.

109
00:07:10,095 --> 00:07:13,057
These outlaws, who keep popping up around Lithia,

110
00:07:13,057 --> 00:07:14,141
present another problem.

111
00:07:16,101 --> 00:07:18,145
A difficult problem?

112
00:07:19,063 --> 00:07:23,108
The enemy is using the outlaws to observe the measures we take.

113
00:07:24,068 --> 00:07:27,029
Like when wyvern interception will be slightly delayed,

114
00:07:27,071 --> 00:07:30,032
or when important cargo is being carried.

115
00:07:30,032 --> 00:07:35,037
So basically, you think that somebody is leaking this information?

116
00:07:35,037 --> 00:07:36,080
Yes.

117
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,083
Find out who's informing Aureatia, then capture them.

118
00:07:39,124 --> 00:07:42,127
You're free to put that sword of yours to good use.

119
00:07:43,045 --> 00:07:46,048
Put to good use…

120
00:07:47,049 --> 00:07:50,094
I thought I told you, I'm not a swordsman.

121
00:08:06,068 --> 00:08:07,111
Okay, relay that info to Aureatia—

122
00:08:07,111 --> 00:08:09,113
A moment of your time, gentlemen?

123
00:08:14,076 --> 00:08:16,036
Of course, what is it?

124
00:08:16,036 --> 00:08:17,121
If you're after smoked meat—

125
00:08:17,121 --> 00:08:20,124
Some outlaws came right up to the front of the city.

126
00:08:21,083 --> 00:08:23,127
Was it to send in spies?

127
00:08:25,087 --> 00:08:29,049
You weren't really trying to find holes
in our aerial defense system, were you?

128
00:08:29,091 --> 00:08:32,052
Amidst the chaos, you hitched a ride with a merchant

129
00:08:32,052 --> 00:08:34,096
and slipped right into Lithia.

130
00:08:34,096 --> 00:08:38,100
Acting as if you were merchants from elsewhere who had been attacked.

131
00:08:40,102 --> 00:08:45,065
If you're identifying as merchants, then I guess there's more of you.

132
00:08:45,107 --> 00:08:50,070
I suspect there are others snooping on the command structure.

133
00:08:53,032 --> 00:08:54,033
Oh?

134
00:09:04,043 --> 00:09:05,044
Four shooters.

135
00:09:05,085 --> 00:09:07,087
Three others hiding.

136
00:09:07,087 --> 00:09:09,048
That makes seven altogether.

137
00:09:11,050 --> 00:09:14,094
Trapping the enemy… A terrain suited for sniping…

138
00:09:14,094 --> 00:09:16,096
Is this their version of a fortress?

139
00:09:16,096 --> 00:09:17,097
I knew it.

140
00:09:24,063 --> 00:09:26,106
Aureatia Secret Service, huh?

141
00:09:26,106 --> 00:09:28,025
You guys are good.

142
00:09:35,032 --> 00:09:36,075
Four shots so far.

143
00:09:36,075 --> 00:09:38,118
All shooters are reloading.

144
00:09:53,133 --> 00:09:55,094
Now, who's left?

145
00:09:56,053 --> 00:09:58,055
One, two, plus another three.

146
00:09:58,097 --> 00:09:59,098
Five, huh?

147
00:10:02,059 --> 00:10:03,060
That brings it down to four.

148
00:10:10,109 --> 00:10:12,111
Don't even try to escape.

149
00:10:12,111 --> 00:10:13,112
You can't.

150
00:10:14,071 --> 00:10:18,033
If I take care of you two, there'll be just one left.

151
00:10:19,118 --> 00:10:22,079
What do you think? Should I kill you both?

152
00:10:23,122 --> 00:10:24,123
I surrender.

153
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,042
If you're going to show mercy, let him live.

154
00:10:27,042 --> 00:10:28,043
B-But…

155
00:10:28,043 --> 00:10:31,046
You can't beat this swordsman. This guy is—

156
00:10:34,132 --> 00:10:39,096
Trying to buy time for your friend inside
by wasting time begging for your lives?

157
00:10:39,096 --> 00:10:42,057
I'm familiar with that trick.

158
00:10:44,059 --> 00:10:47,062
There's no reason for me to let him live either.

159
00:10:48,021 --> 00:10:50,065
Everything's recorded on this piece of paper, isn't it?

160
00:10:51,024 --> 00:10:53,068
I took it from the guy I just killed.

161
00:10:53,068 --> 00:10:55,028
I-I won't resist!

162
00:10:55,070 --> 00:10:57,114
So please, show the mercy of a swordsman!

163
00:10:58,031 --> 00:10:59,074
No can do.

164
00:11:04,121 --> 00:11:06,123
Because I'm not a swordsman.

165
00:11:07,082 --> 00:11:08,125
I'm a bandit.

166
00:11:12,087 --> 00:11:14,047
Dakai the Magpie.

167
00:11:14,089 --> 00:11:18,051
An aberrant entity that cannot be tolerated in the Distant World.

168
00:11:18,093 --> 00:11:22,055
A visitor that has flowed to this world…

169
00:11:22,097 --> 00:11:26,059
He is the one who can stop even the speed of bullets in his consciousness,

170
00:11:26,059 --> 00:11:29,104
and possesses remarkable eyesight and an enchanted sword.

171
00:11:30,063 --> 00:11:34,026
The one who boasts the power of insight

172
00:11:34,026 --> 00:11:36,111
to conquer impenetrable labyrinths alone.

173
00:11:37,070 --> 00:11:40,073
The one who plunders in moments of utmost crisis,

174
00:11:40,073 --> 00:11:44,119
and possesses fingers of absolute precision and divine speed.

175
00:11:45,078 --> 00:11:48,040
He steals across the boundaries of his own world

176
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,126
with a rampant disregard for the law.

177
00:11:59,051 --> 00:12:01,053
So, what will you do now,

178
00:12:01,094 --> 00:12:02,095
Aureatia?

179
00:12:03,055 --> 00:12:07,142
He is a bandit. He is a minia. He is Dakai the Magpie.

180
00:12:32,042 --> 00:12:34,044
All troops, straighten up.

181
00:12:34,086 --> 00:12:35,087
Look at me.

182
00:12:38,090 --> 00:12:40,050
I'll tell you right away.

183
00:12:40,050 --> 00:12:42,094
We're here to sentence one rotten individual to death.

184
00:12:43,053 --> 00:12:47,057
You've probably heard about the Lithia citizen who went missing today.

185
00:12:47,099 --> 00:12:49,101
A minian child.

186
00:12:49,101 --> 00:12:51,103
Nine years old. A little girl.

187
00:12:52,062 --> 00:12:54,106
I suspect one of you knows something about this.

188
00:12:57,067 --> 00:12:59,027
It's true!

189
00:12:59,027 --> 00:13:02,072
It was Deputy Commander Lukwel of the Southern Guerrilla Unit!

190
00:13:02,072 --> 00:13:04,032
H-He ate a child!

191
00:13:04,116 --> 00:13:06,076
I-I saw it myself.

192
00:13:07,035 --> 00:13:08,078
It's true!

193
00:13:14,042 --> 00:13:18,046
We receive more than enough food

194
00:13:18,046 --> 00:13:21,091
in return for protecting the citizens of Lithia.

195
00:13:21,091 --> 00:13:23,051
That's the deal we have.

196
00:13:24,094 --> 00:13:26,096
Let me put it simply for you, fools.

197
00:13:27,055 --> 00:13:29,057
Eating Lithia citizens,

198
00:13:29,057 --> 00:13:32,102
and losing the trust of Taren the Guarded,

199
00:13:32,102 --> 00:13:38,066
is a rotten, grave act of treason that will starve our entire group!

200
00:13:38,108 --> 00:13:41,111
Deputy Commander Lukwel of the Southern Guerrilla Unit.

201
00:13:42,070 --> 00:13:44,030
Do you have anything to say in your defense?

202
00:13:47,117 --> 00:13:49,119
I can't believe Lukwel would do that.

203
00:13:53,039 --> 00:13:55,083
From Regnejee to the wind of Lithia.

204
00:13:55,083 --> 00:13:57,085
Reversing Mirror Disk. String-tethered sun!

205
00:13:58,044 --> 00:13:59,045
Illuminate!

206
00:14:02,132 --> 00:14:04,092
Why me?

207
00:14:04,092 --> 00:14:06,136
Did you think you could trick me?

208
00:14:07,095 --> 00:14:08,096
You piece of trash!

209
00:14:10,056 --> 00:14:13,143
Look! See what happens to fools who break the rules!

210
00:14:16,062 --> 00:14:21,109
Any scum who eats Lithia citizens will
be sentenced to death! No exceptions!

211
00:14:21,109 --> 00:14:24,070
Sentenced to death!

212
00:14:27,115 --> 00:14:32,078
One year ago… This scum joined our ranks one year ago.

213
00:14:32,078 --> 00:14:34,122
I didn't break him in hard enough.

214
00:14:34,122 --> 00:14:38,084
All those who entered in the same period will report for re-conditioning.

215
00:14:38,084 --> 00:14:40,086
Nobody will break the rules again.

216
00:14:40,128 --> 00:14:42,088
Never again!

217
00:14:53,016 --> 00:14:55,060
I lead that swarm of trash.

218
00:14:55,101 --> 00:14:58,104
I must be superior to any other wyvern.

219
00:14:59,064 --> 00:15:01,107
I won't run away from the swarm.

220
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,082
Those who are truly strong lead others.

221
00:15:17,123 --> 00:15:21,086
They take responsibility for as many lives as they can.

222
00:15:33,098 --> 00:15:35,058
Today is sunny.

223
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:39,104
Regnejee left early in the morning and still isn't back.

224
00:15:39,521 --> 00:15:40,438
He seems especially busy lately.

225
00:15:41,398 --> 00:15:43,400
What are you mumbling about?

226
00:15:44,359 --> 00:15:45,402
Regnejee?

227
00:15:45,402 --> 00:15:47,362
Yeah, it's me.

228
00:15:47,445 --> 00:15:49,406
Were you deployed today too?

229
00:15:49,447 --> 00:15:52,450
I just got back from chasing off some rotten outlaws.

230
00:15:52,450 --> 00:15:55,453
I've not got time to mess around every day like you.

231
00:15:56,413 --> 00:15:57,455
I've been writing a diary.

232
00:15:58,415 --> 00:16:03,420
I heard nobles who can write make records in books like this every day.

233
00:16:03,420 --> 00:16:09,384
If I do the same, then I'll always remember what we spoke about together.

234
00:16:10,427 --> 00:16:12,387
Don't say such daft things.

235
00:16:12,387 --> 00:16:15,390
How do you plan to write if you can't see?

236
00:16:17,392 --> 00:16:19,394
That's a challenge I've been enjoying lately.

237
00:16:28,862 --> 00:16:29,863
Don't touch me.

238
00:16:30,905 --> 00:16:32,907
I can't even catch you off guard, huh?

239
00:16:32,949 --> 00:16:33,950
A small fry like you?

240
00:16:34,868 --> 00:16:38,872
You couldn't ever touch me, not even if you tried for a lifetime.

241
00:16:38,955 --> 00:16:40,957
That might be true.

242
00:16:41,875 --> 00:16:43,918
I'll have to think of another way.

243
00:16:47,922 --> 00:16:50,925
Regnejee, do you like it here in Lithia?

244
00:16:51,843 --> 00:16:52,927
What about you?

245
00:16:52,927 --> 00:16:54,888
You can't even see it.

246
00:16:54,929 --> 00:16:55,930
I like it.

247
00:16:55,930 --> 00:16:57,891
It's beautiful.

248
00:16:57,891 --> 00:16:58,933
How silly.

249
00:16:59,851 --> 00:17:00,894
I envy you.

250
00:17:07,859 --> 00:17:09,944
Aren't you going to sing today?

251
00:17:10,862 --> 00:17:13,865
There are plenty of singers who sing better than me.

252
00:17:13,948 --> 00:17:16,868
I want to hear your song, Curte.

253
00:17:17,869 --> 00:17:18,870
Is that so?

254
00:17:30,548 --> 00:17:33,509
Even now that everything is over,

255
00:17:33,509 --> 00:17:38,514
there might not be any person, anywhere,

256
00:17:38,514 --> 00:17:41,476
who fully understands the identity of the True Demon King.

257
00:17:42,477 --> 00:17:45,521
Who was the True Demon King?

258
00:17:45,521 --> 00:17:48,524
What did that True Demon King do to her hometown?

259
00:17:48,524 --> 00:17:50,568
Curte never saw it for herself.

260
00:17:50,568 --> 00:17:56,574
But she lost the light after that indescribable terror.

261
00:17:57,533 --> 00:18:03,498
Even so, one girl, and one wyvern, didn't lose themselves to insanity.

262
00:18:03,539 --> 00:18:05,541
Curte believes.

263
00:18:05,541 --> 00:18:10,546
That the surreal song she heard in the darkness

264
00:18:10,546 --> 00:18:14,384
is what brought back their sanity.

265
00:18:14,759 --> 00:18:15,802
Regnejee.

266
00:18:16,803 --> 00:18:19,722
What's going to happen to Lithia?

267
00:18:19,764 --> 00:18:21,724
What about you?

268
00:18:21,808 --> 00:18:24,811
Do you plan to stay here in Lithia?

269
00:18:27,730 --> 00:18:29,774
Well, my mother is the monarch of Lithia.

270
00:18:32,443 --> 00:18:34,445
Yes, you're right.

271
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:37,990
S-Stop you fool!

272
00:18:38,991 --> 00:18:40,034
Can I sing again?

273
00:18:40,034 --> 00:18:43,996
Sure. Knock yourself out.

274
00:18:44,997 --> 00:18:47,041
Regnejee, did you know?

275
00:18:47,542 --> 00:18:50,461
If only you were an angel, Regnejee.

276
00:18:58,678 --> 00:19:00,680
He is the one who rules over

277
00:19:00,722 --> 00:19:05,685
a freely-flying force that rules the vast skies of the world alone.

278
00:19:06,644 --> 00:19:10,648
The one who commands an absolutely obedient and fearless swarm,

279
00:19:10,648 --> 00:19:14,652
as if they were a single living entity.

280
00:19:15,611 --> 00:19:17,697
The one with sharp battlefield acumen

281
00:19:17,697 --> 00:19:22,660
who has firmly rooted himself in the core of a nation.

282
00:19:34,172 --> 00:19:39,260
He is a Command. He is a wyvern. He is Regnejee the Wings of Sunset.

283
00:20:45,368 --> 00:20:48,371
Somewhere in the Aureatia Suburbs

284
00:20:48,454 --> 00:20:50,414
That's the situation.

285
00:20:51,457 --> 00:20:54,418
Move out as soon as you receive contact.

286
00:20:59,465 --> 00:21:01,467
Hang on a second.

287
00:21:02,426 --> 00:21:05,471
This is a delivery assignment, not a clean-up job.

288
00:21:06,889 --> 00:21:08,891
Well, I'm sure it will work out.

289
00:21:08,933 --> 00:21:11,894
After all, I have an angel with me.

290
00:21:16,857 --> 00:21:18,859
