00:01:30,980 --> 00:01:35,990
Episode 4

2
00:01:30,980 --> 00:01:35,990
When Monsters Attack, Unpreparedness Is the Greatest Enemy

3
00:01:42,770 --> 00:01:44,550
What is magic?

4
00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:47,830
Magic is the most advanced art in this world.

5
00:01:48,460 --> 00:01:53,160
Nations compete to determine  who best utilizes its power.

6
00:01:56,850 --> 00:02:01,510
And magic stones, like this one,  are the core of every magic tool.

7
00:02:02,230 --> 00:02:06,130
This magic wand is made  with a magic stone, as well.

8
00:02:12,470 --> 00:02:14,540
Magic users can bring about  all sorts of phenomena

9
00:02:24,410 --> 00:02:28,910
The mining and distribution of magic stones  is nationally regulated.

10
00:02:28,910 --> 00:02:31,870
In this nation, they are managed  by the Aurousseau Company

11
00:02:31,870 --> 00:02:34,610
with the permission of the royal family.

12
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:37,500
That's my Lene's household.

13
00:02:38,170 --> 00:02:43,800
Now, for today's lesson,  you'll fire some actual magic shots.

14
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,680
You can imagine that the targets are monsters.

15
00:02:55,329 --> 00:02:59,400
Monsters first appeared along with  the discovery of magic stones.

16
00:02:59,980 --> 00:03:02,960
They are animals that have taken  magic stones into their bodies,

17
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,100
drastically changing their  shapes and appearances.

18
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:09,160
A monster's weakness is the magic  stone that serves as its core.

19
00:03:10,270 --> 00:03:11,420
Right, then.

20
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:21,970
Rae, you've been in your  own world this whole time.

21
00:03:21,970 --> 00:03:23,290
Are you all right?

22
00:03:23,820 --> 00:03:26,130
Oh, sorry. I zoned out.

23
00:03:26,130 --> 00:03:27,800
I swear...

24
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:32,610
You may be a dual caster,  but you can't neglect daily practice.

25
00:03:32,610 --> 00:03:33,690
Yeah, you're right.

26
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,430
Let's see... Magic shot, magic shot...

27
00:03:38,430 --> 00:03:39,290
There.

28
00:03:50,710 --> 00:03:52,100
Wow...

29
00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:54,640
That's what someone with  two attributes is capable of?

30
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,480
Shoot! I misjudged the strength I needed!

31
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,550
This is another case of...

32
00:03:59,550 --> 00:04:02,420
I just blew it again, didn't I?!

33
00:04:10,580 --> 00:04:12,580
Don't get too full of yourself!

34
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,270
Mr. Torrid...

35
00:04:28,270 --> 00:04:32,340
Magic is a dangerous art if used incorrectly.

36
00:04:32,340 --> 00:04:34,550
You must be very careful and very serious.

37
00:04:34,550 --> 00:04:35,330
Sorry.

38
00:04:35,330 --> 00:04:36,790
I apologize, sir.

39
00:04:38,690 --> 00:04:39,840
What?

40
00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:46,130
You're really able to show true respect  to someone better than you, huh?

41
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,600
who established the foundations  of magic in this kingdom.

42
00:04:54,890 --> 00:05:04,110
Torrid Magic

43
00:04:55,100 --> 00:04:57,180
Though his aptitude is only intermediate,

44
00:04:57,180 --> 00:05:00,300
he commands the attributes  of fire, earth, and water,

45
00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:03,320
making him the kingdom's  one and only tri-caster!

46
00:05:04,110 --> 00:05:07,670
Even a commoner like you must know that!

47
00:05:07,670 --> 00:05:09,910
Of course I'm aware of that.

48
00:05:09,910 --> 00:05:12,600
This kingdom lagged  behind the others in magic,

49
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,750
and then he appeared, like a comet!

50
00:05:17,620 --> 00:05:19,510
Y-Yes, I get it!

51
00:05:19,510 --> 00:05:21,990
Stop doing that weird pose!

52
00:05:22,570 --> 00:05:23,630
I don't know them.

53
00:05:34,620 --> 00:05:38,900
Next, I will explain the magical attributes.

54
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:43,400
Water

55
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:43,400
Wind

56
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:43,400
Fire

57
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:43,400
Earth

58
00:05:39,370 --> 00:05:43,400
There are four attributes,  each with its own affinities.

59
00:05:46,430 --> 00:05:48,530
wind is strong against water,

60
00:05:48,530 --> 00:05:50,780
fire is strong against earth,

61
00:06:02,470 --> 00:06:03,960
For example...

62
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,590
Earth magic can defend.

63
00:06:11,310 --> 00:06:16,100
Advanced users can even  build entire castle walls.

64
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:18,270
Fire magic can attack.

65
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,190
Water magic can heal.

66
00:06:22,740 --> 00:06:25,940
It can be used to treat  injuries and illnesses.

67
00:06:26,450 --> 00:06:29,970
The dead, however,  cannot be brought back to life.

68
00:06:31,450 --> 00:06:37,580
And wind magic, which I can't use,  primarily fills supportive roles.

69
00:06:38,390 --> 00:06:41,940
Combining wind with fire  increases its attack power,

70
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,210
That about covers it.

71
00:06:53,990 --> 00:06:56,260
Now, let's put this into actual practice.

72
00:06:56,260 --> 00:06:59,780
I will advise those of you with  the wind attribute individually,

73
00:06:59,780 --> 00:07:01,900
so please come to me.

74
00:07:12,780 --> 00:07:16,210
An earth wall... Kinda like this?

75
00:07:32,140 --> 00:07:34,850
Still such good buddies, aren't you?

76
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,700
Prince Rod! Prince Yu!

77
00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:39,930
You are gravely mistaken!

78
00:07:39,930 --> 00:07:43,340
I have not befriended this  person in the slightest!

79
00:07:43,340 --> 00:07:44,730
You heard her, Rae.

80
00:07:46,940 --> 00:07:48,480
You shut up!

81
00:07:49,830 --> 00:07:50,990
Anyway...

82
00:07:51,409 --> 00:07:53,220
Where is Prince Thane?

83
00:07:53,220 --> 00:07:56,130
Oh, he's with Mr. Torrid.

84
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,760
You really blasted that target. Nice going.

85
00:08:05,430 --> 00:08:08,740
We're not that great at magic ourselves,

86
00:08:08,740 --> 00:08:10,490
so we kinda envy you.

87
00:08:10,490 --> 00:08:11,260
Huh.

88
00:08:11,260 --> 00:08:14,920
Does it not make you happy to  be praised by Their Highnesses?

89
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,640
Actually...

90
00:08:21,140 --> 00:08:23,540
That is never going to happen!

91
00:08:23,540 --> 00:08:25,640
You two really are good buddies.

92
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:30,280
By the way, are you two gonna take  the Academy Knights exam next week?

93
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:31,250
Huh?

94
00:08:31,250 --> 00:08:35,640
Brother, I doubt Rae knows  about the Academy Knights.

95
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,280
Oh, I guess not.

96
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,789
The Academy Knights resolve  conflicts between students,

97
00:08:42,789 --> 00:08:45,690
kill monsters on the grounds,  that kind of thing.

98
00:08:45,690 --> 00:08:48,990
They're basically an autonomous  organization within the academy.

99
00:08:49,290 --> 00:08:53,720
It's deeply rooted in tradition, and only  the elite who pass the exam can join.

100
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,290
I think it'd be worth trying.

101
00:08:56,290 --> 00:08:58,430
The Academy Knights...

102
00:08:58,430 --> 00:09:02,460
I mean, they were in the game,  so of course I know about them.

103
00:09:05,350 --> 00:09:07,480
Thane

104
00:09:05,350 --> 00:09:07,480
Unbound by duty and status... Looks like there's still more I could learn from you.

105
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,150
Yu

106
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,150
Let's both do our best together!!

107
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:14,440
but as far as the game goes, I don't  really care whether I'm in it or not.

108
00:09:14,740 --> 00:09:16,840
What, not interested?

109
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,950
I thought you'd jump at the chance.

110
00:09:19,950 --> 00:09:21,870
Eh... I don't...

111
00:09:21,870 --> 00:09:26,230
Then you could be like, "I'm the knight  who protects Miss Claire!"

112
00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:28,710
The knight who protects Miss Claire?!

113
00:09:30,980 --> 00:09:34,210
A villain! Someone help me!

114
00:09:34,210 --> 00:09:35,920
My lady!

115
00:09:41,630 --> 00:09:42,910
My lady...

116
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,940
Oh, my knight...

117
00:09:46,940 --> 00:09:48,310
I'll do it!

118
00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:51,520
I don't even want to know  what you were just imagining,

119
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,980
but I'll be taking the exam, as well.

120
00:09:53,980 --> 00:09:54,650
Huh?

121
00:09:58,430 --> 00:10:00,660
Does that mean...

122
00:10:00,660 --> 00:10:02,160
Put me down!

123
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,580
I can't have you protecting me  for the rest of my life!

124
00:10:07,420 --> 00:10:09,940
I can fight, too!

125
00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:13,500
You're imagining something weird again!

126
00:10:14,170 --> 00:10:15,220
Watch it!

127
00:10:22,980 --> 00:10:24,750
Is it me, or is the ground shaking?

128
00:10:28,380 --> 00:10:30,600
What's going on?

129
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,480
H-Hey!

130
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,630
An earthquake?

131
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,300
A water slime?

132
00:10:57,300 --> 00:10:59,220
It's unbelievably huge.

133
00:10:59,220 --> 00:11:02,170
If that thing swallowed you up,  you'd be a goner.

134
00:11:04,310 --> 00:11:08,390
Everyone, get back! Take refuge,  and let me handle this!

135
00:11:10,650 --> 00:11:12,650
Keep calm, and get to a safe distance!

136
00:11:12,650 --> 00:11:14,400
This way, everyone!

137
00:11:27,730 --> 00:11:30,110
Hey! What are you doing?!

138
00:11:30,110 --> 00:11:31,980
You need to start running, too!

139
00:11:31,980 --> 00:11:33,120
Commoner!

140
00:11:35,350 --> 00:11:37,590
Hey! Take refuge, quickly!

141
00:11:37,590 --> 00:11:39,840
That monster's a water type.

142
00:11:45,620 --> 00:11:47,210
I'll help you!

143
00:11:58,530 --> 00:12:02,460
How can you construct such  impressive magic walls so quickly?

144
00:12:02,460 --> 00:12:04,540
You're no beginner at this!

145
00:12:04,540 --> 00:12:07,530
Well, yes, naturally I've already  accounted for all this!

146
00:12:07,530 --> 00:12:10,720
This is a monster attack event  that happens in the game.

147
00:12:07,530 --> 00:12:11,410
A water slime draws near!

148
00:12:07,530 --> 00:12:14,790
Fight  Item  Talk  Plan  Run

149
00:12:07,530 --> 00:12:14,790
Mud Lance

150
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,790
I've been secretly practicing  my magic just for this day.

151
00:12:11,410 --> 00:12:12,790
The water slime took 35 damage!

152
00:12:12,790 --> 00:12:13,670
The water slime took 38 damage!

153
00:12:13,670 --> 00:12:14,790
The water slime took 42 damage!

154
00:12:14,790 --> 00:12:17,240
Once I got used to it, I improved quickly.

155
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,550
Thanks, protag specs!

156
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:23,560
Mr. Torrid! Give everyone  the order to attack!

157
00:12:23,560 --> 00:12:25,610
We can overpower it with numbers now!

158
00:12:25,610 --> 00:12:26,990
R-Right!

159
00:12:26,990 --> 00:12:31,460
Everyone! Use your attack magic  together on my signal!

160
00:12:54,650 --> 00:12:57,610
Aim through the cracks  between the earth walls!

161
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:01,210
Fire!

162
00:13:08,970 --> 00:13:10,260
Did we get it?

163
00:13:26,250 --> 00:13:29,950
This is the Hateful Cry!  Monsters use it to threaten their foes!

164
00:13:33,450 --> 00:13:34,750
This is bad!

165
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:47,860
Oh, no!

166
00:13:47,860 --> 00:13:50,610
I used too much magic on those walls!  I've got none left!

167
00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:10,820
Rod

168
00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:10,870
Close call, huh? But it's okay now. I'll finish this thing off.

169
00:14:09,220 --> 00:14:10,840
During this event in the game,

170
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,780
when the heroine is in danger,

171
00:14:10,870 --> 00:14:12,700
Thane

172
00:14:10,870 --> 00:14:12,700
Are you all right? Leave the rest to me. This is my job now!

173
00:14:12,780 --> 00:14:15,450
Yu

174
00:14:12,780 --> 00:14:15,570
the romanceable characters  gallantly save her...

175
00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:20,710
Rod

176
00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:20,710
Thane

177
00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:20,710
Yu

178
00:14:20,710 --> 00:14:23,240
No! I don't wanna make this choice!

179
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,910
It'll set a flag! Someone's  affection level will skyrocket!

180
00:14:26,910 --> 00:14:30,580
I need different options  that aren't the princes!

181
00:14:30,580 --> 00:14:33,310
If there was a name I'd want to call out...

182
00:14:33,310 --> 00:14:34,970
Yu

183
00:14:34,310 --> 00:14:35,930
Save me,

184
00:14:34,970 --> 00:14:35,930
Yu

185
00:14:34,970 --> 00:14:35,930
Claire

186
00:14:35,930 --> 00:14:37,930
Miss Claire!

187
00:14:37,930 --> 00:14:39,690
Huh?!

188
00:14:41,730 --> 00:14:43,950
Oh, right... In this scene...

189
00:14:43,950 --> 00:14:47,270
Miss Claire's also been caught by a tentacle.

190
00:14:47,270 --> 00:14:50,570
She shows up in Prince Thane's event CG!

191
00:14:50,570 --> 00:14:53,450
It's a tiny image, but it's so cute!

192
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,570
Ugh! Could this monster  be any more barbaric?

193
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,670
I can't save anyone this way...

194
00:15:12,670 --> 00:15:15,170
Stay strong, Claire FranÃ§ois.

195
00:15:18,940 --> 00:15:20,270
Prince Thane!

196
00:15:20,270 --> 00:15:22,770
Damage

197
00:15:23,650 --> 00:15:25,170
I'll back you up.

198
00:15:25,170 --> 00:15:27,740
Hit it with all the magic you've got.

199
00:15:27,740 --> 00:15:30,520
B-But my attribute is fire.

200
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,660
It won't affect a water-type monster.

201
00:15:38,660 --> 00:15:39,740
Right!

202
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,790
We hit it with full power!

203
00:15:42,790 --> 00:15:44,320
Of course!

204
00:16:12,610 --> 00:16:14,840
Awesome! Dashing! Beautiful!

205
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,370
I love you so much, Miss Claire!

206
00:16:21,830 --> 00:16:25,180
Miss Claire! Do it!

207
00:16:25,940 --> 00:16:27,390
Roar forth!

208
00:16:27,390 --> 00:16:28,890
Clad in the breeze!

209
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:31,250
Flame Lance!

210
00:16:31,730 --> 00:16:33,840
Enchant Wind!

211
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:18,540
Are you all right?

212
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,520
I-I'm so sorry!

213
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:29,270
It'sâ

214
00:17:37,990 --> 00:17:39,390
Ow...

215
00:17:42,210 --> 00:17:43,180
You saved us!

216
00:17:48,460 --> 00:17:51,850
B-But it wasn't just me...

217
00:17:57,690 --> 00:17:59,470
Oh, there you are.

218
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,480
It's okay. You don't need to be afraid.

219
00:18:15,490 --> 00:18:18,400
That was your mommy back there, wasn't it?

220
00:18:18,870 --> 00:18:21,450
She was fighting to protect you, wasn't she?

221
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,140
I'm sorry.

222
00:18:31,450 --> 00:18:34,470
I'll be your mommy instead.

223
00:18:34,890 --> 00:18:37,660
We'll forge the Familiar Pact right now.

224
00:18:41,330 --> 00:18:43,550
Your name is Ralaire now.

225
00:18:44,890 --> 00:18:46,870
Let's be friends, Ralaire.

226
00:18:52,310 --> 00:18:54,150
Hey, that tickles!

227
00:19:02,890 --> 00:19:03,910
Prince Thane!

228
00:19:10,360 --> 00:19:13,920
Um... I wanted to thank you.

229
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:18,280
If not for you, I don't know  what would've happened to me.

230
00:19:20,930 --> 00:19:25,350
I'm sure you would have handled  things just fine without me.

231
00:19:25,350 --> 00:19:27,430
Th-That's not...

232
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:29,430
But still...

233
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,490
C-Commoner!

234
00:19:45,490 --> 00:19:47,570
Where have you been?!

235
00:19:47,570 --> 00:19:49,870
Were you hurt?! Are you all right?!

236
00:19:51,670 --> 00:19:54,190
Oh... Yes. I'm just fine.

237
00:19:54,190 --> 00:19:56,630
But should you have done that?

238
00:19:56,630 --> 00:19:58,630
Huh? Done what?

239
00:19:58,630 --> 00:20:02,850
Well... You just snapped  the flag you set in half...

240
00:20:02,850 --> 00:20:05,700
What in the world are you talking about?

241
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:08,150
Do you know how worried Iâ

242
00:20:08,150 --> 00:20:11,880
It's happened! You're finally  getting all affectionate!

243
00:20:13,140 --> 00:20:14,860
I am not!

244
00:20:14,860 --> 00:20:17,610
Where do you keep getting  that idea, anyway?!

245
00:20:25,820 --> 00:20:27,380
I'm saying...

246
00:20:27,380 --> 00:20:31,830
You did a good job keeping  the monster in one place.

247
00:20:37,150 --> 00:20:39,490
Rae! Miss Claire!

248
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,930
Come on, let's hurry back already.

249
00:22:36,790 --> 00:22:39,790
Oh, sure. Just a sec.

250
00:22:42,540 --> 00:22:44,490
You've got quite the appetite.

251
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:46,260
Hey!

252
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,430
Ow, ow, ow...

253
00:22:49,430 --> 00:22:52,850
Y-You're full of curiosity, too.  You're gonna need traiâ

254
00:22:52,850 --> 00:22:53,930
Hang on...

255
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,740
That's a monster, isn't it?

256
00:22:58,540 --> 00:23:01,390
Calm down, Misha! Just listen! Hear me out!

257
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,810
And help me train this little one!

258
00:23:05,810 --> 00:23:09,470
Could you not just dump a headache  like that on me so naturally?

259
00:23:12,780 --> 00:23:14,720
H-How cute...

260
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:15,540
Gotcha!

261
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,310
I then started the process  of training Ralaire, but...

262
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,710
Hey, commoner! Where did you put my brush?

263
00:23:28,710 --> 00:23:30,270
Lene is looking foâ

264
00:23:46,660 --> 00:23:48,750
The first part of the knight  exam is the written part!

265
00:23:55,120 --> 00:23:57,950
Y-You don't mean... Me, of all people?!

266
00:23:57,950 --> 00:24:00,580
Why don't we compare  our answers, Miss Claire?
