1. A grimoire by Flamme the Legendary Mage?
Copy !req
2. They say books attributed
to Flamme are never real.
Copy !req
3. Only forgeries have been found until now.
Copy !req
4. This is probably the best imitation
I've seen so far, though.
Copy !req
5. Not bad as a reward for defeating monsters.
Copy !req
6. I really don't understand the appeal.
Copy !req
7. That said, when all you see are fakes,
Copy !req
8. you start to doubt whether the
genuine article ever existed at all.
Copy !req
9. Flamme, the founder of humanity's magic,
is like a fairy tale herself.
Copy !req
10. A fairy tale, huh?
Copy !req
11. I suppose. It's been long enough since then.
Copy !req
12. I'm probably the only one
who remembers her face.
Copy !req
13. It's morning.
Copy !req
14. Ms. Frieren woke up early!
Copy !req
15. Is that so impressive?
Copy !req
16. Of course it is.
Copy !req
17. We must be sure to praise her.
Copy !req
18. What are we doing?
Copy !req
19. Like a fairy tale
Copy !req
20. It's a sign the story has reached its end
Copy !req
21. Like a single passage taken from
Copy !req
22. A journey that was too long
Copy !req
23. Of the evil that once cast a shadow
Copy !req
24. Across this land
Copy !req
25. And the memories of the short journey
Copy !req
26. With the hero who defeated it
Copy !req
27. The story ends
Copy !req
28. And the hero goes to sleep
Copy !req
29. Leaving this land with
Copy !req
30. Days of peace and quiet
Copy !req
31. The passage of time heartlessly
Copy !req
32. Makes people forget
Copy !req
33. Even the tracks left behind by his life
Copy !req
34. Begin to rust
Copy !req
35. Just the same
Copy !req
36. Your words and wishes and courage
Copy !req
37. Are still inside of me
Copy !req
38. And they live on
Copy !req
39. We chose the same path
Copy !req
40. That's all it was supposed to be
Copy !req
41. Why is it that at some point
Copy !req
42. I wanted to understand the reason for
Copy !req
43. The tears that fall down my cheeks
Copy !req
44. Even now
Copy !req
45. If I retrace the journey we walked together
Copy !req
46. Even though you're not there
Copy !req
47. I know I'll be able to find it
Copy !req
48. Thank you.
Copy !req
49. With the road blocked,
I didn't know what I was going to do.
Copy !req
50. Hey, is this really necessary?
Copy !req
51. You're not happy about it?
The reward isn't bad.
Copy !req
52. No, I mean, couldn't you just use magic
to carry the cart to the other side?
Copy !req
53. That wouldn't help the
people who come after us.
Copy !req
54. That's what Fern said, anyway.
Copy !req
55. You're rather selfish, Stark.
Copy !req
56. That's rich, coming from you.
Copy !req
57. Thank you.
Copy !req
58. Hey, thanks.
Copy !req
59. By the way, why was there
a landslide in just this area?
Copy !req
60. The northern lands have been
fighting demons here and there, too.
Copy !req
61. This landslide was probably
caused by one such skirmish.
Copy !req
62. The scars of battle, huh?
Copy !req
63. Mr. Stark, could you take a break
from that to help me over here?
Copy !req
64. Mr. Stark?
Copy !req
65. Hey, could you stop calling me Mr. Stark?
Copy !req
66. It weirds me out.
We're not that different in age.
Copy !req
67. I see. Very well.
Copy !req
68. Stark, quit wasting time
and help me already. Hurry up.
Copy !req
69. So rude!
Copy !req
70. I meant more like, can't you speak to me
in a more casual or familiar way?
Copy !req
71. I see.
Copy !req
72. And can't you be friendlier, too?
I'm sensitive, okay?
Copy !req
73. What a pain in the rear.
Copy !req
74. What'd you call me?
Copy !req
75. Are you making progress over there?
Copy !req
76. Let's hurry, Mr. Stark.
Copy !req
77. Okay.
Copy !req
78. Thank you so much.
Copy !req
79. If you'd like, I can show you
the way to the town.
Copy !req
80. An elf, huh?
Copy !req
81. I've lived many years, but this
is my first time seeing one.
Copy !req
82. I suppose we're something of a rarity.
Copy !req
83. Come to think of it, I've never
seen an elf besides you.
Copy !req
84. There aren't very many of us.
Copy !req
85. I've only seen my own kind a handful of times.
Copy !req
86. Elves may live a long time,
Copy !req
87. but across the board, we lack romantic
feelings and reproductive instincts.
Copy !req
88. We're quietly going extinct.
Copy !req
89. The last time I met a fellow elf
was more than 400 years ago.
Copy !req
90. Perhaps we're closer
to the end than I thought.
Copy !req
91. We can see the town now.
Copy !req
92. There's a line of wagons.
Copy !req
93. Those look like merchants.
Copy !req
94. The Liberation Festival is tonight.
Copy !req
95. Today's the day Himmel
and his party of heroes
Copy !req
96. once defeated the demons who ruled this land.
Copy !req
97. Is that right?
Copy !req
98. That's what the Liberation
Festival commemorates.
Copy !req
99. The statues of Mr. Himmel and his companions
in the central plaza are decorated,
Copy !req
100. and the entire town
throws a grand celebration.
Copy !req
101. Humans love to make a fuss.
Copy !req
102. They hold festivals for everything.
Copy !req
103. It's been more than eighty years
since the demons were defeated.
Copy !req
104. That's more than enough time for something
to pass from human memory.
Copy !req
105. But on this day, everyone
remembers the party of heroes.
Copy !req
106. Nice work.
Copy !req
107. Five retakes, huh?
Copy !req
108. We finished sooner than usual this time.
Copy !req
109. You're always getting statues made, Himmel.
Copy !req
110. Because I want everyone to remember us.
Copy !req
111. Unlike you, we don't live that long.
Copy !req
112. I need future generations to
remember how handsome I was.
Copy !req
113. I'm heading back to the inn.
Copy !req
114. But I guess the biggest reason
Copy !req
115. is so you won't be alone in the future.
Copy !req
116. What does that mean?
Copy !req
117. We're not fairy tales.
Copy !req
118. We really existed.
Copy !req
119. Every year, we celebrate the great deeds
accomplished by the party of heroes.
Copy !req
120. Come to think of it, you look a lot
Copy !req
121. like the statue of Ms. Frieren
from that very party.
Copy !req
122. Will they still be doing this
a hundred years from now?
Copy !req
123. Yes, as long as this town still stands.
Copy !req
124. How about a thousand?
Copy !req
125. Well, I don't know.
Copy !req
126. Shall we go?
Copy !req
127. We're heading far to the north.
Copy !req
128. Come to think of it, you haven't
told me your destination yet.
Copy !req
129. Where are we going?
Copy !req
130. Heaven.
Copy !req
131. Now that sounds fun.
Copy !req
132. There are a lot of guards here.
Copy !req
133. Do you suppose something happened?
Copy !req
134. Let's decide who's going shopping.
Copy !req
135. Ms. Frieren, we're in a town.
Copy !req
136. I sense demons.
Copy !req
137. What?
Copy !req
138. Hey, you! What are you doing?
Copy !req
139. Graf Granat, did you put her up to this?
Copy !req
140. Lord Lügner, while it's true
I despise you and wish you dead,
Copy !req
141. I'm not foolish enough to openly attack
peace envoys in the middle of town.
Copy !req
142. Peace envoys?
Copy !req
143. They're probably adventurers
who don't know what's going on.
Copy !req
144. If you say so.
Copy !req
145. There's bloodlust in those calm, cold eyes.
Copy !req
146. Even the townsfolk who hate us
look upon me as a person,
Copy !req
147. even as they tremble in fear.
Copy !req
148. But you look at me as
though I'm a wild beast.
Copy !req
149. Aren't you?
Copy !req
150. You demons are wild beasts who
imitate human speech
Copy !req
151. but can't be communicated with.
Copy !req
152. Throw her in the dungeon
beneath the mansion.
Copy !req
153. Yes, milord.
Copy !req
154. Huh?
Copy !req
155. Hey!
Copy !req
156. I'm bored.
Copy !req
157. Ms. Frieren.
Copy !req
158. They said to reflect on your
actions for two or three years.
Copy !req
159. That's shorter than I expected.
Copy !req
160. Could you bring me some grimoires later?
Copy !req
161. You really do love to waste time.
Copy !req
162. I'm not here because I want to be.
Copy !req
163. So, what did he mean when he referred
to those demons as peace envoys?
Copy !req
164. I looked into it while shopping.
Copy !req
165. You know of Aura the Guillotine, don't you?
Copy !req
166. She's one of the Seven Sages of Destruction
who served the Demon King.
Copy !req
167. She lost most of her followers
fighting against us.
Copy !req
168. Last I heard, her whereabouts were unknown.
Copy !req
169. Did something happen recently?
Copy !req
170. Aura regained her power 28 years ago.
Copy !req
171. Her forces have been embroiled in battle
with this town for a long time,
Copy !req
172. but they've become exhausted
by the fruitless fighting,
Copy !req
173. so they're suing for peace.
Copy !req
174. So that's why they were allowed in as envoys.
Copy !req
175. That was a bad move.
Copy !req
176. Trying to talk to demons is pointless.
Copy !req
177. It can't be pointless.
Copy !req
178. They're capable of speech.
Copy !req
179. Surely the best option would be
to resolve things by talking them out?
Copy !req
180. They can't resolve things that way.
That's why it's pointless.
Copy !req
181. Demons are man-eating monsters.
Copy !req
182. Have you ever wondered why they
speak the same language as humans?
Copy !req
183. Hero, you must slay the fiend!
Copy !req
184. It's only a child.
Copy !req
185. So what? That thing ate our daughter!
Copy !req
186. It hurts...
Copy !req
187. It hurts, Mom...
Copy !req
188. Enough. I'll do it.
Copy !req
189. Then we'd be no different from the demons.
Copy !req
190. It's not as though they have to
eat humans to survive, right?
Copy !req
191. Why don't we give her
the opportunity to atone?
Copy !req
192. Chief...
Copy !req
193. You can't be serious!
Copy !req
194. Give us back our daughter!
Copy !req
195. I'll tend your wounds at my home.
Copy !req
196. I've been looking for someone
to help on the farm.
Copy !req
197. Himmel, you'll regret not
killing it now. It's a—
Copy !req
198. Frieren, we're capable of speech
with each other.
Copy !req
199. We'll be staying in this village anyway.
Copy !req
200. Why don't we see how it goes?
Copy !req
201. Fine.
Copy !req
202. Why did you kill the village chief?
Copy !req
203. We should've killed it back then.
Copy !req
204. There it is again.
Copy !req
205. Every day I felt your desire to kill me.
Copy !req
206. I just want to live in peace.
Copy !req
207. So I brought you a replacement
for the daughter I ate.
Copy !req
208. That's the village chief's daughter.
Copy !req
209. But the village chief is gone now.
Copy !req
210. It seems I've made a mistake somehow.
Copy !req
211. Then I have no choice.
I'm taking this child hostage.
Copy !req
212. You won't stop me again, will you?
Copy !req
213. No.
Copy !req
214. Mom...
Copy !req
215. "Mom" again?
Copy !req
216. Like monsters, demons don't raise their young.
Copy !req
217. They spend most of their time
after birth living in solitude.
Copy !req
218. You're solitary creatures by nature.
You have no concept of family.
Copy !req
219. So why do you use the word "mom"?
Copy !req
220. Because it stops you from killing us.
Copy !req
221. A wonderful, magical word...
Copy !req
222. For them, words are a means
of deceiving humans.
Copy !req
223. Flamme the Legendary Mage defined
monsters capable of speech as demons.
Copy !req
224. They're descended from
monsters who cried "help"
Copy !req
225. from the shadows to lure humans to them.
Copy !req
226. Don't forget to bring me grimoires.
Copy !req
227. Graf Granat is late.
Copy !req
228. A human diplomatic tactic.
Copy !req
229. In any case, I'm curious about that mage.
Copy !req
230. I know her face from somewhere.
Copy !req
231. Wild beasts who can't be
communicated with, huh?
Copy !req
232. That's an accurate description.
Copy !req
233. She's the only one in this town who
understands the true nature of us demons.
Copy !req
234. There's only one reason that predators
Copy !req
235. who prey on humans would
speak the human language.
Copy !req
236. They speak not to understand us
but to deceive us.
Copy !req
237. This town won't be around much longer.
Copy !req
238. I should take advantage of
the confusion to escape.
Copy !req
239. What is this?
Copy !req
240. My son's room.
Copy !req
241. He was a good boy.
Copy !req
242. He'd often boast about how he'd take over
the family soon so I could take it easy.
Copy !req
243. His Majesty gave him this sword
when he fought in his presence.
Copy !req
244. Where is your son now?
Copy !req
245. He died in battle against
Aura ten years ago.
Copy !req
246. All that came home to me was his sword.
Copy !req
247. Lügner!
Copy !req
248. I only invited you here to avenge my son.
Copy !req
249. I'm going to kill all of you
envoys here and now.
Copy !req
250. Your peace means nothing to me!
Copy !req
251. This room is quite clean.
Copy !req
252. I'm sure you've been keeping it
just as it was ten years ago.
Copy !req
253. So what if I have?
Copy !req
254. I've kept my father's room the same
since you killed him, too.
Copy !req
255. Why don't we put an end
to this, Graf Granat?
Copy !req
256. Or shall we continue to shed each other's
blood and cause even more grief?
Copy !req
257. We're capable of speech with each other.
Copy !req
258. Please grant us the opportunity
to settle this with discussion.
Copy !req
259. Show them to the guestroom.
Copy !req
260. I'll consider it.
Copy !req
261. Lord Lügner,
Copy !req
262. what is a "father"?
Copy !req
263. Who knows?
Copy !req
264. Graf Granat resents us, but he
seems to be an empathetic man.
Copy !req
265. If we win him over, we may
be able to convince him
Copy !req
266. to lower this town's defensive
barrier in the name of peace.
Copy !req
267. Then Lady Aura's forces will raze this town.
Copy !req
268. By the way, Linie, I don't see Draht.
Copy !req
269. He said he was off to eliminate an obstacle.
Copy !req
270. He's acting rashly.
Copy !req
271. What am I to do with that
hot-blooded youngster?
Copy !req
272. Lord Draht, you should not be here.
Copy !req
273. Please return to the guest—
Copy !req
274. Who are you? Visiting hours are over.
Copy !req
275. I am Draht, one of Aura the
Guillotine's executioners.
Copy !req
276. I am here to kill you.
Copy !req
277. I see. Done pretending to negotiate?
Copy !req
278. We're just getting started.
Copy !req
279. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
280. According to Lord Lügner,
this girl is the only obstacle in our way.
Copy !req
281. If I kill her, and we win over Graf Granat,
this town will fall easily.
Copy !req
282. Just so you know, I'm strong.
Copy !req
283. Stronger than me?
Copy !req
284. Stronger than Aura the Guillotine.
Copy !req
285. And you alright
Copy !req
286. Can you hear me
Copy !req
287. Trailing along deserted train tracks
Copy !req
288. Crying excessively
Copy !req
289. Wanting you to smile
Copy !req
290. I hold on to memories I'd like to keep fresh
Copy !req
291. There's something I'd like to tell you
Copy !req
292. With words more precious than a goodbye
Copy !req
293. Unremarkable yet special
Copy !req
294. See, things that couldn't have been
Copy !req
295. Seen if it weren't for these eyes
Copy !req
296. Why? They begin to overflow
Copy !req
297. So, if I were to be born again
Copy !req
298. I would surely choose this place once more
Copy !req
299. So, if we were to meet again
Copy !req
300. I'd never let you go, I'd choose the present
Copy !req
301. Even if no promises were made
Copy !req
302. Even if I'm lost in days of loneliness
Copy !req
303. Those tears will be alright,
dawn will surely break
Copy !req
304. I'm whispering our lullaby
Copy !req
305. for you to come back home
Copy !req
306. Who is that mage?
Copy !req
307. Speaking so casually to me
is a serious crime in this town...
Copy !req
308. We don't stand a chance against them.
Copy !req
309. You're a guard-killer who should be executed.
Copy !req
310. I hate fighting powerful opponents, too.
Copy !req
311. This fight is already over.
Copy !req
312. She slew more demons
than anyone else in history.
Copy !req
