1. Like a fairy tale
Copy !req
2. It's a sign the story has reached its end
Copy !req
3. Like a single passage taken from
Copy !req
4. A journey that was too long
Copy !req
5. Of the evil that once cast a shadow
Copy !req
6. Across this land
Copy !req
7. And the memories of the short journey
Copy !req
8. With the hero who defeated it
Copy !req
9. The story ends
Copy !req
10. And the hero goes to sleep
Copy !req
11. Leaving this land with
Copy !req
12. Days of peace and quiet
Copy !req
13. The passage of time heartlessly
Copy !req
14. Makes people forget
Copy !req
15. Even the tracks left behind by his life
Copy !req
16. Begin to rust
Copy !req
17. Just the same
Copy !req
18. Your words and wishes and courage
Copy !req
19. Are still inside of me
Copy !req
20. And they live on
Copy !req
21. We chose the same path
Copy !req
22. That's all it was supposed to be
Copy !req
23. Why is it that at some point
Copy !req
24. I wanted to understand the reason for
Copy !req
25. The tears that fall down my cheeks
Copy !req
26. Even now
Copy !req
27. If I retrace the journey
we walked together
Copy !req
28. Even though you're not there
Copy !req
29. I know I'll be able to find it
Copy !req
30. I see.
Copy !req
31. I remember now.
Copy !req
32. It was Frieren.
Copy !req
33. A mage who made great contributions
to humanity's research of Zoltraak,
Copy !req
34. and sent more demons to their grave
more than anyone in history.
Copy !req
35. Frieren the Slayer.
Copy !req
36. The kind of genius that I despise.
Copy !req
37. You need to rest for a while.
Copy !req
38. Sorry for the trouble.
Copy !req
39. Hey!
Copy !req
40. Are you okay?
Copy !req
41. You two saved my life.
Copy !req
42. I thank you.
Copy !req
43. I'll pardon your mage companion as well.
Copy !req
44. She was correct in her judgment.
Copy !req
45. That means Frieren
can come back to the city.
Copy !req
46. Let's ask her to defeat Lügner.
Copy !req
47. Umm, Mistress Frieren
didn't kill the guard...
Copy !req
48. I know. Those demons did it.
Copy !req
49. More importantly, did you say
that her name is Frieren?
Copy !req
50. Yes.
Copy !req
51. I didn't realize she was the elven mage
from the party of heroes.
Copy !req
52. In that case, I must apologize
for my rudeness to her.
Copy !req
53. The Granat family owes
the party of heroes a debt.
Copy !req
54. In my grandfather's time, when this town
was attacked by an army of demons,
Copy !req
55. the heroes repelled them.
Copy !req
56. Back then,
Copy !req
57. they also faced one of the Seven Sages
of Destruction, Aura the Guillotine.
Copy !req
58. Long time no see, Aura.
Copy !req
59. Indeed it has.
Copy !req
60. How long has it been, Frieren?
80 years?
Copy !req
61. You're planning to go
to that town, aren't you?
Copy !req
62. I would appreciate it
if you turned back now.
Copy !req
63. I refuse.
Copy !req
64. Why?
Copy !req
65. Because I have the advantage by far.
Copy !req
66. Is that so?
Copy !req
67. There's more of them
compared to back then.
Copy !req
68. For you to be able to
control all of them,
Copy !req
69. I can see how strong
demon's magic are.
Copy !req
70. Humanity's magical technique couldn't
even begin to imagine reaching it.
Copy !req
71. Yet your magic is in
incredibly poor taste.
Copy !req
72. Revolting, in fact.
Copy !req
73. How mean.
Copy !req
74. I worked hard
to gather all these, you know?
Copy !req
75. I recognize several
of these suits of armor.
Copy !req
76. That means I have to kill you
here and now, Aura.
Copy !req
77. The Scales of Obedience.
Copy !req
78. It's the main reason we haven't been
able to defeat Aura all these years.
Copy !req
79. Her magic forces her
enemies into submission,
Copy !req
80. to be under her
complete control.
Copy !req
81. The magic they use is beyond
human comprehension and nature itself.
Copy !req
82. Aura places her own soul
and that of her target onto the scales
Copy !req
83. and weighs how much their mana are.
Copy !req
84. The one with greater mana
Copy !req
85. will force the other
to obey them as puppets.
Copy !req
86. An eternal puppet that serves
until their body turns to dust.
Copy !req
87. That magic carries great risk.
Copy !req
88. But for someone with tremendous mana
like Aura, it guarantees her victory.
Copy !req
89. Is there any way to counter it?
Copy !req
90. Though it always seems to tilt
to one side due to Aura's mana,
Copy !req
91. the scales do judge fairly.
Copy !req
92. If a soul with mana
greater than Aura is placed on it,
Copy !req
93. then Aura will lose.
Copy !req
94. But in the 500 years since Aura reigned
as one of the Seven Sages of Destruction,
Copy !req
95. it is said that
it never happened even once.
Copy !req
96. So there is no way to fight it?
Copy !req
97. They do, actually.
Copy !req
98. Those with strong wills is able
to resist, albeit temporarily.
Copy !req
99. A great hero trained to their peak
would have such an iron will.
Copy !req
100. And even that is only temporary?
Copy !req
101. Yet it is still a fatal flaw.
Copy !req
102. Those with such willpower
must have been bothersome to her.
Copy !req
103. That's why...
Copy !req
104. Aura the Guillotine dealt with those
she controlled in a logical way.
Copy !req
105. Cruel as it may be.
Copy !req
106. What do you think?
Copy !req
107. My undead army is strong, aren't they?
Copy !req
108. Quite the surprise.
Copy !req
109. You lifted the spell I've cast on them.
Copy !req
110. That never happened before.
Copy !req
111. To use such a powerful negation spell,
Copy !req
112. you must've exhausted
a fair amount of mana.
Copy !req
113. Why would you do
such a roundabout thing?
Copy !req
114. Didn't you blow them away in spectacular
fashion the last time we fought?
Copy !req
115. Himmel got mad at me afterwards.
Copy !req
116. Then all the more reason
not to do this, don't you think?
Copy !req
117. How so?
Copy !req
118. Because Himmel is already dead, isn't he?
Copy !req
119. I see, that's good.
Copy !req
120. I'm glad you demons are still
just monsters.
Copy !req
121. I can kill you without mercy now.
Copy !req
122. All right.
Copy !req
123. I can move better now.
Copy !req
124. Father, this place is safe, right?
Copy !req
125. Yes. Even if it's not as strong
as the town's barrier,
Copy !req
126. this church is still protected
by a magical barrier.
Copy !req
127. All right, stay here, Graf.
Copy !req
128. Insolent brat.
Copy !req
129. What are you trying to do?
Copy !req
130. What, did you think the demons
will just go away if we hide here?
Copy !req
131. Master Stark, are you serious?
Copy !req
132. We were lucky our surprise attack
worked back then.
Copy !req
133. We had no opportunity to finish them off.
Copy !req
134. Had the fight continued,
we would've been dead.
Copy !req
135. Someone has to deal with this, right?
Copy !req
136. You're right. Then let's do our best.
Copy !req
137. No. You need to go to the guard post.
Copy !req
138. Get everyone in town to evacuate.
Copy !req
139. Then are you...
Copy !req
140. Yeah.
Copy !req
141. I'm...
Copy !req
142. going to get on my knees
and beg Frieren to come back here.
Copy !req
143. Huh?
Copy !req
144. What? Our only hope
is to get her to defeat them, right?
Copy !req
145. Well, yes, that would be
the most realistic choice.
Copy !req
146. He said the guards will listen
if you show them this.
Copy !req
147. Understood.
Copy !req
148. I'll leave town right away.
Copy !req
149. What's wrong?
Copy !req
150. Your arms aren't in good condition.
Copy !req
151. Are you sure you can get past
the castle gate like that?
Copy !req
152. It should be fine.
This is what warriors usually deal with.
Copy !req
153. Is it strange?
Copy !req
154. I've never seen a warrior
walking around town covered in blood.
Copy !req
155. You're one to talk. You're also...
Copy !req
156. Wait, whose blood is this?
Copy !req
157. It's not mine, is it?
Copy !req
158. Hey! What is up with you?
Copy !req
159. Master Stark, I sense mana
from this blood.
Copy !req
160. Fern!
Copy !req
161. An axe?
Copy !req
162. I can't believe it. Is this real?
Copy !req
163. That's my master's technique.
Copy !req
164. I missed the vital spot
since you unnecessarily moved.
Copy !req
165. Shame. I wasn't trying to make you suffer.
Copy !req
166. What are you so surprised of?
Copy !req
167. The fact that I'm standing here
when I'm supposed to be fatally wounded?
Copy !req
168. Or the fact that you
couldn't sense our approach?
Copy !req
169. You're not the only one who can hide
their presence by controlling their mana.
Copy !req
170. Any demon could do the same.
Copy !req
171. That said,
Copy !req
172. I don't believe that is the proper way
for any mage to face another.
Copy !req
173. You sure talk a lot.
Copy !req
174. Aren't you going to finish me off?
Copy !req
175. Since I failed to kill you,
I'd like to ask a few things.
Copy !req
176. Or would you rather die now?
Copy !req
177. Go ahead.
Copy !req
178. Is that kid strong?
Copy !req
179. He is Eisen the Warrior's best apprentice.
Copy !req
180. I see. How unfortunate for him.
Copy !req
181. Poor boy.
Copy !req
182. Against Linie, he will surely
suffer a horrible death.
Copy !req
183. One more question.
Copy !req
184. Where is Frieren?
Copy !req
185. She ran away from this town.
Copy !req
186. Because you killed the guard in the cell.
Copy !req
187. Graf Granat did mention it.
Copy !req
188. It appears killing a guard
is a serious crime.
Copy !req
189. - It's a death sentence.
- Death sentence?
Copy !req
190. I doubt she would run away from just that.
Copy !req
191. She bears a deep grudge against demons.
Copy !req
192. Enough to drill demon-killing magic
onto her own apprentice.
Copy !req
193. It's inconceivable for her to run away.
Copy !req
194. She must have other motives.
Copy !req
195. Is it Lady Aura?
Copy !req
196. Please don't move.
Copy !req
197. You seem to have an idea
where Mistress Frieren went.
Copy !req
198. Such a pointless thing to do.
Copy !req
199. You were lying when you said
you failed to kill me, didn't you?
Copy !req
200. You wanted to get even
for my surprise attack.
Copy !req
201. You're so full of pride and arrogance,
Copy !req
202. yet even now, you never consider any of us
as a threat other than Mistress Frieren.
Copy !req
203. That's why you even gave me openings.
Copy !req
204. At this close distance,
I can blow out your heart.
Copy !req
205. Go ahead and try.
Copy !req
206. Your head will fall off
before that happens.
Copy !req
207. Mistress Frieren,
Copy !req
208. was I of any help at all?
Copy !req
209. Why do you ask that?
Copy !req
210. I can't handle magic
as flawlessly as you do.
Copy !req
211. That's just because of the difference
in how long we've lived.
Copy !req
212. You will never catch up to me.
Copy !req
213. Is that so?
Copy !req
214. But that is only when it comes
to mana and techniques.
Copy !req
215. I often leave fights against monsters
to you, don't I?
Copy !req
216. Yes, you forced it on me
this time as well.
Copy !req
217. I said I'm sorry.
Copy !req
218. You finish fights faster than me.
Copy !req
219. Because you fire spells faster than me.
Copy !req
220. Little girl.
Copy !req
221. I have devoted the greater part
of my life to the pursuit of magic.
Copy !req
222. And so have I.
Copy !req
223. What is with her reaction speed?
Copy !req
224. Had I not covered myself by reflex,
she would've pierced my heart.
Copy !req
225. So you protected it.
Copy !req
226. Your heart is your weak point,
as I expected.
Copy !req
227. This girl...
Copy !req
228. I see now.
Copy !req
229. It seems like you weren't lying
about devoting your life to magic.
Copy !req
230. Then I will crush you with all my might.
Copy !req
231. Bluterei.
Copy !req
232. Seems like it's starting over there.
Copy !req
233. It was a disappointment, though.
Copy !req
234. I'm already done here.
Copy !req
235. Maybe I'll just watch.
Copy !req
236. Lord Lügner tends to get angry
if I get in his way.
Copy !req
237. Oh?
Copy !req
238. It's not over yet...
Copy !req
239. You're pretty stubborn.
Maybe I can actually have some fun.
Copy !req
240. I'm far superior to her in mana,
techniques, and control.
Copy !req
241. There is a huge gap
between our differences.
Copy !req
242. However,
Copy !req
243. she is fast.
Copy !req
244. She is actually pushing me back
by landing many blows.
Copy !req
245. Damn that Frieren. What kind of training
did she drill into this little girl?
Copy !req
246. Perhaps I can turn this into an attrition
and wait until she runs out of mana.
Copy !req
247. No, that won't do.
Copy !req
248. She would finish me off before then.
Copy !req
249. I need to create a slight opening.
Copy !req
250. Linie! What are you doing?
Copy !req
251. Hurry and finish him off!
Copy !req
252. Geez, how selfish.
Copy !req
253. This kid is so stubbornly
defensive, you know?
Copy !req
254. How can you use your axe like that?
Copy !req
255. That's my master's technique.
Copy !req
256. I'm good at reading mana.
Copy !req
257. I memorize the flow of mana inside
someone when they move,
Copy !req
258. and I can imitate their actions.
Copy !req
259. Just like this.
Copy !req
260. I was certain when I first saw
your moves at the mansion.
Copy !req
261. You moved the same way
as the strongest warrior that I remember.
Copy !req
262. Such an interesting coincidence, isn't it?
Copy !req
263. Fate sure is interesting.
Copy !req
264. It can't be...
Copy !req
265. I'm imitating the moves
of Eisen the Warrior.
Copy !req
266. What the heck. That's messed up.
Copy !req
267. How am I supposed to win against this?
Copy !req
268. You're finally down.
Copy !req
269. I need to hurry, or Lord Lügner
will scold me again.
Copy !req
270. Down?
Copy !req
271. I've fallen down?
Copy !req
272. Get up, Stark.
Copy !req
273. No matter how beaten up you are,
you must never fall.
Copy !req
274. Even if you say so,
Copy !req
275. there's no way I can beat you, Master.
Copy !req
276. Of course not.
Copy !req
277. I'm stronger than you.
Copy !req
278. - Then...!
- However,
Copy !req
279. you haven't lost yet.
Copy !req
280. You stood back up, after all.
Copy !req
281. I don't get it.
Copy !req
282. Stark.
Copy !req
283. I'll teach you the secret to winning
against a strong opponent.
Copy !req
284. It's simple. Keep getting back up over
and over and hit them with your moves.
Copy !req
285. The last warrior standing wins.
Copy !req
286. Dammit, Master.
Copy !req
287. You always forced
those messed up logic on me.
Copy !req
288. I bet your brain is made of muscles.
Copy !req
289. You should've just stayed down.
Copy !req
290. You already lost.
Copy !req
291. I'm still standing.
Copy !req
292. Besides, I remember now.
Copy !req
293. Master's moves are
heavier than yours.
Copy !req
294. All you did was just imitating.
Copy !req
295. Then I will finish you off
with an imitation.
Copy !req
296. Erfassen.
Copy !req
297. Bluterei!
Copy !req
298. A big swing, with no defenses.
He must've lost his mind.
Copy !req
299. Man, I feel stupid for thinking
I will die to deliver this blow.
Copy !req
300. Yours really aren't heavy at all.
Copy !req
301. Lightning Strike!
Copy !req
302. Linie!
Copy !req
303. Oh no!
Copy !req
304. Zoltraak.
Copy !req
305. Demon-killing magic...
Copy !req
306. And you alright
Copy !req
307. Can you hear me?
Copy !req
308. Tracing down the empty railroad
Copy !req
309. Crying excessively
Copy !req
310. When I wanted to smile
Copy !req
311. Holding on to these memories
I want to keep vivid
Copy !req
312. They're much more important than goodbyes
Copy !req
313. So I want to convey them in words
Copy !req
314. They're so common yet so special
Copy !req
315. See, if it wasn't for these eyes
Copy !req
316. There would be things
I would never see
Copy !req
317. Yet why are they overflowing?
Copy !req
318. That's why even if I were to be reborn
Copy !req
319. I will still choose this place once again
Copy !req
320. So when I see you once again
Copy !req
321. I'm sure this time
I will choose to never let go
Copy !req
322. Even without promises
Copy !req
323. Even if there are days
Where I'm lonely and lost
Copy !req
324. These tears are fine,
Night will break into dawn
Copy !req
325. I'm whispering our lullaby for you
To come back home
Copy !req
326. - In a direct confrontation,
- She has about one-fifth of my mana.
Copy !req
327. - Frieren will definitely lose.
- She has about one-fifth of my mana.
Copy !req
328. - You're no match for me.
- What do you think, Heiter?
Copy !req
329. - We were ordered to kill all elves.
- After all, you are...
Copy !req
330. a far greater mage than I am.
Copy !req
