Original subtitles

It's no use.

We're surrounded above.

Let's go to the harbor underground.

We must at least get far away from this city.

By authority of Her Majesty Altilia,

on suspicion of conspiring to capture the Hyperion,

you are under arrest.

Damn it!

Don't even think about it. You all are no match for Holy Swords.

The mere mortal has the audacity to speak with such arrogance.

I can't stand to listen.

One of them? Where are you hiding?

Devils Eye, cursed be the one who is fearless.

Vreid!

W-What are you?

Bow down you fools!

My name is Zor Vadis!

I am a Dark Lord and the rightful ruler of this world.

The petrification will fade off the humans soon.

If you choose to follow me I'll give you a way to escape.

Right now we have no choice left.

The remaining members of the Wolf King Faction

will all become your followers.

Then so it shall be.

From now on you shall call yourselves the Dark Wolf Faction.

I've made an underground labyrinth with my magic.

The humans will not be able to see the entrance.

Hide there for the time being.

Sharpen your fangs so we may resist the empire.

Yes sir.

Huh?

Hey Leo, where are you?

As your guardian if you...

We shall meet again!

More and more every day.

Leo did say that animals of the night flock to vampires.

But can we do nothing about it?

Hey Leo!

Are you awake?

Huh?

She's gone...

Leo's not here either.

Hey Leo, where are you?

As your guardian if you leave without saying...

Come on.

I should hurry and shower so I can go look for him.

Phantom Cloak, release!

My vassal is extremely overprotective.

She nearly cost me my dignity back there.

But it all went well.

I was able to gain control of the remaining Ajin faction.

They'll be the first foothold in the restoration of my Dark Army.

Ah! Leo?

I'm sorry!

I brought breakfast!

Huh?

Am I interrupting?

-You're not! -At least knock!

Okay.

Leo, not eating vegetables is bad for your health.

I'll eat some later.

I can't believe an undead is worried about my health.

No wait, is it because my blood will go down smoothly

when she drinks it from me?

It's kinda creepy here.

Should we scare them away?

I'd feel too bad for them.

They're kinda cute actually.

There's already a rumor that this dorm is haunted you know!

They say a big black dog haunts the grounds

or the ghost of a young girl!

I just saw her!

Really?

What was she like?

She wore maid clothes.

She had short cut black hair and was cleaning Leo's room!

Leo are you okay?

I think I accidentally inhaled something.

Shary! She isn't cautious enough!

Anyway, Leo where were you before?

Well, you see...

I was training.

For today's practice match.

You sure are motivated, little boy!

I want to do my best for Selia. She always does for me.

Oh Leo, stop it!

Fenris' platoon is very strong.

We carefully planned our strategy last night

so I hope we win and move up in the ranks.

It's the first practice match since I've had my Holy Sword.

I have to do my best!

Dimdo!

There goes one.

First Point, 18th Platoon.

Sub-flag One.

Alright!

Sister Selia Brother Leo are amazing!

Incredible coordination!

Attacker approaching Sub-flag Three!

I have visual.

Damn it!

Two attackers from two and three o'clock.

They're headed this way.

Roger that!

Leaving all defense to the shooter and observer

while the swordsman cuts through the middle.

It seems this strategy is a diversion

while the platoon leader destroys the sub-flags.

They won't be at full strength, but it's well thought out.

However, if their diversion fails they won't get their targets.

Selia, behind you!

Ouch!

Fenris!

You came just as I thought Riselia Crystalia!

And her little child!

Hey, this hurts way too much!

Have you adjusted your power?

Just as the rules say, down to one tenth power.

Why would you, the platoon leader, be guarding a sub-flag?

To settle matters with you of course.

I feel so honored. Thanks to that Sakuya can break through the middle.

That kid may be a good swordsman

but it seems she has trouble with flanking.

Right about now she'll be playing with my ice wolves.

Wait, stop running away!

I have two attackers aiming for the main flag.

With Elfiné and your maid it'll actually really be two versus one.

This girl may have a bad attitude but she is smart.

If I defeat you here it'll be a shutout victory!

Holy Sword Mode Shift! Freezing Fist!

I'll leave the extra child to you.

I've got it!

Leo!

I'll take her on.

I wouldn't look away now if I were you!

So nobody is protecting your main flag?

You have a problem with that?

So if I defeat you right here then that means we win!

There's no point in talking about things you can't do!

This is your end.

11th Platoon, One Member Down.

Selia!

I won't lose now.

I've always admired you and I've always followed you.

11th Platoon, Team Leader Down.

Yay!

She's so strong.

That is why she is my right-hand vassal.

Well fought.

If the 11th platoon leader had just aimed for the main flag

it would have gone differently.

Although some individual battles were worth watching

I must say that both sides are still inexperienced.

However, that inexperience

could also be a valuable tool to capture the people's hearts.

Leo, are you itchy anywhere?

I'm okay but...

I can wash myself.

I shouldn't be in here anyway right?

According to the Academy's bylaws up to the age of ten,

kids can bathe with their guardian.

I'm Leo's guardian so it's not a problem.

That's right.

Should I wash your back too Sakuya?

I-I am okay...

Oh my, they've gotten bigger I see!

No they haven't!

Hey little boy you have a look too! They've gotten bigger right?

I'm not looking!

We did well today didn't we Milady?

We can't become complacent though.

If Fenris didn't have it out for me our team would have lost.

I'm sorry.

I was completely lured away by the enemy.

But you did face off with the attacker aiming for the main-flag

and you defeated them.

If you hadn't then we couldn't have defended.

Sakuya don't be discouraged, you did a great job.

Once you start considering the whole battlefield

you'll get even better!

I'll keep that in mind.

Right, there are points we can improve as a platoon.

First, we have to strengthen our coordination!

You too little boy!

Turn around and put your hand in!

Huh?

I can't turn around.

Let's all do our best together!

Yeah!

Yeah...

This Demon Sword was also from a Holy Swordsman.

Shalnark did her job well.

I am slightly concerned about what these women

were buried by however.

That's enough sacrifices for now.

It's almost time to awaken.

My prophesized Goddess!

18th platoon reporting for duty.

I apologize for the late hour.

Today 1-5-4-0 was sent

from the observation base 1,000 miles to the North West.

If it's 1,000 miles to the North West

you must mean the Void Realm observation base.

That's right.

We are constantly sending drones on patrol

as an early detection and warning of a stampede.

Instructor, that's...

Yes, six years ago it disappeared into the Void Realm.

The Third Assault Garden.

If I remember correctly that is the city Riselia and Regina escaped from.

The target is currently

sailing under its own power to the southeast at 6mph.

It's possible something caused it's magical furnace to turn on.

If it continues it will arrive in seven days.

That's right.

Also one more point of concern.

Its distress signal was sent out twice.

Survivors?

It may be equipment malfunction.

In any case it is difficult to gather any more information with only drones.

This is why I'd like to ask you all to investigate the city.

Your mission is to investigate the cause of the distress signal,

search for survivors,

confirm magical furnace functionality and if possible stop the ship.

You'll execute this within 72 hours.

If you go over this time

the Seventh Assault Garden's engines will not be able to avoid it.

In the event you run into Voids you have permission to defend yourselves.

In a large-scale attack you are to retreat.

Instructor.

This isn't concerning the strategic details, but may I ask a question?

I'll allow it.

Why are you giving us this mission?

It's administrations call.

Is it related to Selia being a survivor of the Third Assault Garden

or with Regina being the forgotten child of a Duke?

So they want a hero.

You can rely on Humans.

Nothing has changed from the time I was celebrated as a Hero.

I won't deny it.

However, I highly value all of your strength.

Thank you Instructor.

We'll do our best to meet your expectations.

However...

He is still only ten.

He is still new, he can stay...

I do not need your worry.

Selia, I am also a member of the 18th platoon.

Leo...

I understand.

I'll protect you then Leo.

Alright, the 18th platoon will depart tomorrow morning.

Go out and investigate your target!

Yes ma'am!

I saw something strange.

The banner of the Sacred Order has

appeared on an abandoned city far from here.

I thought everything from a thousand years ago was lost to time?

Yes, we must go and see if it is the work of someone.

I will take care of the Kingdom while you are away my Lord.

I'm counting on you. I could only leave it to you.

Shary, you will go with me.

As you command.

By the way Blackas, I've been wondering.

What is that?

You mean this?

A gift from the swords-woman.

From Sakuya Sieglinde?

If I wear this collar

I won't be mistaken for a wild dog and put down.

Is it okay for royalty to do that?

It's okay to get some rest until we arrive.

Thank you!

Little boy, you can sleep right here.

Considering last night's meeting

and how early we got up, you must be tired.

No way, I'm Leo's guardian, he will sleep on my lap!

Um, I'm okay.

Ta-da!

This is what you need when sleeping on a lap.

I didn't bring a cotton swab.

Regina!

Don't move.

It feels so amazing!

You do spend a long time polishing it.

As a Dark Lord if the bones you use are dirty

it reflects bad on your name.

But, the time I have left to be at your side is coming to an end.

You know I don't like jokes.

We've finally established our kingdom together.

It's not a joke.

I will soon pass away.

To be reborn a thousand years into the future.

The future?

When that time comes will you come looking for me

no matter what form I will take?

If that really happens I promise I will find you.

Even if it means crawling all over the world,

I'll find you.

I'm counting on you.

The promise of a Dark Lord is absolute.

Well then, I want you to make one more promise.

In the far future if I have become something different...

Huh? Selia?

I took over for Regina.

We're about to arrive.

The sea fog is too thick, I have bad visibility.

We can't search from the sky.

Let's go down.

Leo and I will go to the Central Garden to examine the furnace.

Finé, Regina, and Sakuya, please find the source of the distress signal.

We'll start with the communication facility in the food production section.

We'll communicate every hour.

Just in case I'll track you with my Celestial Eyes.

Little boy, you'll be alone with Milady don't do anything I wouldn't do!

Worry about your own mission please!

Shary.

I'm here.

Protect those three.

You ordered me to come with you. I thought it was to protect you.

I don't need it.

Who do you think I am?

-But still... -I won't say it again.

Those girls may not be my vassals but think of them as my subjects.

I understand.

What's wrong?

I know this place.

There used to be a café with a yellow roof.

They had great cake. I used to beg my dad and he'd take me there.

Then a little further down there was a large market.

But they're all gone now.

While I was praying in that shelter everything was...

It's not your fault Selia.

Voids?

Selia!

URGENT SUMMONS

What exactly are we doing?

Training.

Humans use this tactic of flying

over enemy lines and dropping into key strategic points.

I see.

But we will soon crash to the ground.

We're wearing parachutes so it will be okay.

If you pull the line it will open.

The parachute isn't deploying!

I'm sorry, that was the Dark Lord's backpack.

Oh...
