Original subtitles

My name is Glass.

As you are a Hero, you can consider me as your enemy.

She killed a Soul Eater with one hit?

This goes way beyond cheating.

I can't stop shaking.

I'm Naofumi.

Naofumi? I see.

Then shall we begin

the true battle of this Wave?

You may have the first move, Hero Naofumi.

You can send your followers to charge me.

"Followers"? His?

Us?

Naofumi's "followers"?

-Not a chance! -Not a chance!

Shooting Star Sword!

Shooting Star Spear!

Shooting Star Bow!

Is that all you can do?

Ring Dance Zero, Inverted Four Seasons.

As I would expect from simple followers.

She's strong!

SOUL TONIC (RECOVERS SP)

Perhaps you can be more entertaining.

Sorry, but I don't care to entertain you.

Shield Prison!

Raphtalia!

And you think you can defeat me with such weak poison?

-Filo! -High Quick!

Eight kicks in an instant. Impressive.

But you cannot touch me.

This is pointless.

Both of you, behind me!

Shield Prison!

Inverted Four Seasons.

So you can still stand after receiving my technique?

Now, when will you use that Shield with the fire?

Master Naofumi.

Come, Rage Shield.

I told you, you cannot touch me.

Filo!

Raphtalia, take care of Filo!

This is too cold to burn me.

Ring Dance Break, Shell Splitter.

Master Naofumi!

You can still stand after that as well?

It appears your defense, at least, is worthy of the title of Hero.

I'm honored that you think so highly of me.

So the black flames activate only in close quarters.

They are not activated by ranged attacks.

You have another card up your sleeve.

Do not hesitate to use it. Show me what you can do.

If you want it that badly, then I'll give it to you!

Shield Prison!

Change Shield!

Iron Maiden!

It is not nearly as potent as I imagined.

I am disappointed.

Something...

Is there anything I can do?

The time has come?

I did not expect it to end so soon.

When I give the signal, cast light magic.

Now, this Wave will end in our victory.

I have no quarrel with you, but...

Now!

Fast Light!

Fast Heal!

Run!

Futile resistance...

Master Naofumi!

Incoming!

Air Strike Shield!

So I cannot defeat him at this distance?

I shall withdraw this time,

but if you are this weak, our next meeting will be our last.

We shall be victorious in the Waves. Do remember that.

BLUE EGG SHIELD (JUDGEMENT 1) ACTIVATED ROPE SHIELD (ERSTER SHIELD) ACTIVATED

It's over?

Did we manage to escape?

That timer that suddenly appeared.

That must be the time until the Wave ends.

But what are the Waves in the first place?

Aren't they catastrophes that will destroy the world?

That Glass woman was determined to defeat me because I was a Hero.

...the true battle of this Wave?

There's too much I don't understand.

But we need to get stronger before the next Wave.

If we don't, we'll die for sure.

If I feed monster parts to the Shield,

I can gain new skills,

but to actually gain strength,

Raphtalia and Filo need class advancements.

Excuse me, Hero.

You will come with me to the castle to report immediately.

What?

Shield Prison!

Change Shield!

Iron Maiden!

We have seen the battle through our crystal ball.

You have done well to repel the Wave.

As regrettable as that is.

That's not how you thank someone.

Please, Hero!

I understand how you feel, but please, go with the Captain of the Guard!

We have a question for you.

-How did you acquire this power? -What?

You have powers that the Shield Hero should never possess!

You have a duty to explain how you acquired it.

Now, speak!

Provide us the truth, with not a single lie or falsehood!

If you want to know, place your head at my feet.

In my world, when you ask a favor from someone else,

you put your forehead to the ground.

Say, "I beg of you, grant upon us ignorant fools your wisdom."

Knave!

You know that I can kill you right now and escape out the gates unscathed.

You bluff.

I defeated that monster in the Wave.

Any of you care to fight me?

Until the Waves are over and I can go back to my world,

I'll assist as little as I need to.

So don't get in my way again.

This disrespect to the King will not be forgiven, Shield!

Oh, that's it.

Your accursed slaves will pay the price for...

I don't care what kind of dirty tricks you try.

I'll protect my friends from you and beat you.

You won't take anything else away from me.

Just try to lay a finger on them.

I'll chase you to the ends of the world

and make you regret ever being born.

Shield!

Your feats in battle were quite impressive.

I must say.

Everyone must now admit to your achievements, Hero,

including some parties who do not look upon the Shield Hero favorably.

Their virtue is but a facade.

Behind it are conspiracy, cloaks, and daggers.

It may be best if you act in the future with caution.

I must say.

"I must say"?

Oh, Melty!

What do you want?

I heard that you were speaking with the Shield Hero a moment ago.

And that your conversation ended in mutual hostility.

Father, if you maintain this broken relationship with the Shield Hero,

we will be unable to repel the Waves,

and the peace of our country will be jeopardized.

Please, seek peace with...

Peace with that knave?

Oh, I am not angry with you, Melty!

Father, why do you hate the Shield Hero so much?

Well...

If we leave him and those damn Demi-Humans to their wiles, my family...

Father?

Questioning him is disrespect.

The Queen is not present at the moment, so the King's word is law.

This holds for us as princesses as well.

Malty.

Father is King.

Any actions he takes which you do not understand

are taken for the future of the country.

I understand that you are of an age when you still want Father's favors,

but you should have some restraint, Melty.

Some advice from your older sister.

Thank you for your advice.

However, this does not concern you, Malty.

Just like Father and Mother,

I am thinking of the future of our country.

That is the duty of one in line to the throne.

Melty, you...

If you will excuse me, Father.

Oh, Melty...

Papa.

You actually picked a fight with the King?

I didn't pick one.

He was asking for one.

Don't I give you enough quests without him giving you any?

But how about that class advancement?

Considering what's between you,

they won't let you use the Dragon Hourglass.

I'm planning to head to Siltvelt or Shieldfreeden.

Well, I thought you'd head to them one day, kid.

I'd recommend Shieldfreeden.

The Slave Merchant also recommended Shieldfreeden.

Something about a Demi-Human country being tolerant of humans?

Yes.

The other country, Siltvelt,

has an extreme case of Demi-Human supremacy.

But maybe the Shield Hero--

Master, are we going to go traveling again?

Yes.

Yes!

-Traveling. -It would take a month with a horse cart,

but the little bird lady will be faster than that.

I'll gather up the supplies you'll need and load them into the cart.

And could you get Raphtalia a new sword?

I have a backup sword.

But...

We are going on a long journey. We need to save all we can!

Leaving on the same day we packed?

Mr. Elhart always works so fast.

Yes.

Hey, kid.

I loaded some new stuff in. You could call them farewell gifts.

Use them if you like them.

It's an accessory you can equip on your Shield.

It will help you figure out what your Shield can do

and a bunch of other stuff.

For the young lady, a sword.

It's the same as the one that broke.

I thought something she's used to would be best.

Also for the young lady,

a magic sword.

It will work wonders on non-physical enemies.

This useful item is just in case the little bird lady can't pull the cart.

Equip it for the strength of a hundred men!

Even you can pull the cart now, kid!

I like traveling.

No one can tie me down. I'm free.

I don't have to deal with royalty or the other Heroes.

I've found you!

Oh, it's Melly!

-Hi! Good to see you! -Filo!

-Master Naofumi, -Melly!

-it was only a short while, -Faster!

but we did travel with her.

Master, Melly is a good girl.

Shield Hero,

I ask you to return to the capital for another audience with King Aultcray.

I refuse.

Apologize for your disrespect toward the King and make peace--

I refuse!

The power of the Heroes is necessary to repel the Waves.

And without assistance from the King, the Heroes...

Assistance?

I'm the one giving assistance here.

Until the Waves are over, anyway.

Master Naofumi.

She's royalty.

Why...

Why are you both like this?

Both you and Father!

A Hero and the King shouldn't fight!

It's just wrong!

Melly?

Don't you think so too, Filo?

Well...

And you too, Raphtalia! Don't you think so?

Well, I'm Master Naofumi's sword...

Hear that? They say so too!

No, they didn't.

Whatever! Just apologize to Father!

Otherwise, Mother will have him spanked!

She's just like her father when she's mad.

What?

Her mother will have her father spanked?

Listen to people when they're speaking to you!

This feeling...

It's the same feeling I had back then.

The feeling of someone being framed!

Just return to the capital...
