1. Like a fairy tale

2. It's a sign the story has reached its end

3. Like a single passage taken from

4. A journey that was too long

5. Of the evil that once cast a shadow

6. Across this land

7. And the memories of the short journey

8. With the hero who defeated it

9. Beyond Journey's End

10. The story ends

11. And the hero goes to sleep

12. Leaving this land with

13. Days of peace and quiet

14. The passage of time heartlessly

15. Makes people forget

16. Even the tracks left behind by his life

17. Begin to rust

18. Just the same

19. Your words and wishes and courage

20. Are still inside of me

21. And they live on

22. We chose the same path

23. That's all it was supposed to be

24. Why is it that at some point

25. I wanted to understand the reason for

26. The tears that fall down my cheeks

27. Even now

28. If I retrace the journey we walked together

29. Even though you're not there

30. I know I'll be able to find it

31. I see.

32. I remember now.

33. It was Frieren.

34. The mage who contributed significantly to humanity's analysis of Zoltraak

35. and slew more demons than anyone else in history.

36. Frieren the Slayer.

37. One of the geniuses I despise.

38. Episode 9: Aura the Guillotine

39. You'll have to rest for a while.

40. Thank you.

41. Hey!

42. Are you okay?

43. Because of you, I'll survive.

44. You have my thanks.

45. I'll pardon your mage companion as well.

46. She was right.

47. Now Frieren can return to town.

48. Let's have her defeat Lügner and the other demon.

49. Ms. Frieren didn't kill the guard.

50. I know. The demons did it.

51. More importantly, that mage's name is Frieren?

52. Yes.

53. The elven mage who adventured with the Hero?

54. Then I've committed a grave discourtesy.

55. The Granat family owes the party of heroes a debt.

56. When this town was attacked by demons during my grandfather's rule,

57. they were the ones who drove them off.

58. They faced the same enemy as we do now.

59. It was Aura, one of the Seven Sages of Destruction.

60. It's been a while, Aura.

61. Indeed, Frieren. About eighty years, I'd say.

62. You're heading to the town up ahead, aren't you?

63. I'd appreciate it if you turned back.

64. No.

65. Why not?

66. Because I have an overwhelming advantage.

67. Oh?

68. You have more puppets than before.

69. Demon magic must be unbelievably powerful to control this many.

70. Humanity's magic could never dream of reaching such heights.

71. But your magic couldn't be more disgusting.

72. It makes me want to puke.

73. That's not a nice thing to say.

74. It took a lot of work to gather this many.

75. I recognize some of those suits of armor.

76. Aura, it seems I must kill you here after all.

77. The Scales of Obedience.

78. It's the reason we haven't been able to defeat Aura in all these years.

79. Her magic allows her to force others to obey her will.

80. The magics of the Seven Sages of Destruction

81. are beyond human knowledge and reason.

82. Aura places her own soul and that of her target on the scales

83. and weighs the magnitude of their mana against each other.

84. The one with greater mana gains control of the other,

85. turning them into a puppet for all eternity— until their body withers to dust.

86. It's a risky spell, but that's what makes it powerful.

87. And in the hands of someone with mana as tremendous as Aura, it's unbeatable.

88. Is there no way to counter it?

89. Though the weight of Aura's mana is enough to fully tip the scales,

90. the scales themselves do judge fairly.

91. If a soul with greater mana than Aura's were to be placed on the scales,

92. Aura could be defeated.

93. But they say that hasn't happened once in the five hundred years

94. since Aura became a Sage of Destruction.

95. Then there's no way to fight it?

96. There was.

97. Those with powerful wills could temporarily resist the spell.

98. The greater the individual, the more iron their will.

99. And even then, it was only temporary?

100. But it was a fatal flaw.

101. The strong-willed must have been an obstacle to her.

102. So...

103. Aura the Guillotine dealt with them in the most logical way after gaining control.

104. It's a tragic tale.

105. Well? My immortal army is powerful, isn't it?

106. I'm surprised.

107. You dispelled the magic I'd cast on them.

108. No one's ever done that before.

109. Such powerful dispelling magic must expend a considerable amount of mana.

110. Why would you use such a roundabout method?

111. The last time we fought, you blew them away with flashy spells left and right.

112. Himmel scolded me afterward.

113. Then that's all the more reason not to do this.

114. Why?

115. Himmel is long gone, isn't he?

116. I see. Good.

117. You demons are monsters after all.

118. I can kill you without mercy.

119. Okay.

120. I've regained most of my mobility.

121. Father, this place is safe, right?

122. Yes. It's not as strong as the town's defensive barrier,

123. but there is a barrier around this church.

124. Then wait here, Graf.

125. Brat, what do you plan to do?

126. Do you think the demons will just leave if we all hole up in here?

127. Mr. Stark, are you serious?

128. We only landed that hit before because we caught him off guard.

129. We couldn't find enough of an opening to finish him off.

130. If we'd kept fighting, we would have been the ones killed.

131. Someone's gotta do this, right?

132. You're right. Then let's do our best together.

133. No, you go to the guard station.

134. You need to evacuate the townsfolk.

135. Then you're going to...

136. Yeah.

137. I'm going to...

138. get on my hands and knees and beg Frieren to return.

139. What?

140. Come on! Having her defeat him is our only option!

141. I suppose that's more realistic.

142. The guards will listen to you if you show them this.

143. Very well.

144. I'm heading straight out of town.

145. What is it?

146. Your arm is in a terrible state.

147. Can you pass through the castle gate looking like that?

148. I'll be fine. This is normal for a warrior.

149. Is there something weird about it?

150. I've never seen a warrior walk around town with two bloody hands.

151. You're one to talk. You're covered in blood, too.

152. Huh? Whose blood is this?

153. It's not mine.

154. Hey! What's the matter with—

155. Mr. Stark, there's mana in this blood.

156. Fern!

157. An axe?

158. I don't believe it. Am I dreaming?

159. That was my master's technique.

160. I'd meant to hit your vitals, but then you went and moved.

161. It wasn't my intention to make you suffer.

162. Why are you surprised?

163. Is it because I'm standing here when I supposedly suffered a fatal blow?

164. Or because you didn't detect our approach?

165. You aren't the only one who knows how to conceal her presence by controlling her mana.

166. Any demon can do it.

167. That said, it's hardly fitting for a battle between mages.

168. You sure like to talk.

169. Aren't you going to finish me off?

170. Since I failed to kill you instantly, I thought I'd ask you some questions.

171. Or would you rather die right now?

172. Go ahead.

173. Is that boy strong?

174. He's Eisen the Warrior's best student.

175. I see. How unfortunate.

176. Poor boy.

177. He won't die a decent death at Linie's hands.

178. One more question.

179. Where is Frieren?

180. She fled the town

181. because you killed the dungeon guard.

182. Graf Granat said something similar.

183. Killing a guard is a serious crime, it seems.

184. The punishment is execution.

185. Execution?

186. That wouldn't be enough to make that woman flee.

187. She holds a powerful grudge against demons,

188. enough to teach her own student a spell purely for demon-killing.

189. Someone like that wouldn't run.

190. She must be after something.

191. It must be Lady Aura.

192. Don't move.

193. You know where Ms. Frieren is headed, don't you?

194. You're wasting your time.

195. You lied about failing to kill me.

196. You wanted revenge for my surprising you.

197. You're proud and arrogant.

198. You still don't see us—see anyone besides Ms. Frieren as a threat.

199. That's why you granted me an opportunity.

200. From this distance, I can blast a hole clean through your heart.

201. Try it.

202. Your head will fly before you get the chance.

203. Ms. Frieren, am I useful?

204. Why would you ask that?

205. I'm not as good at magic as you are.

206. I've lived for much longer than you.

207. In that regard, you'll never catch up to me.

208. I see.

209. But that only applies to mana and technique.

210. I often let you handle battles against monsters.

211. Yes, you've forced those on me many times.

212. I'm sorry, okay?

213. But battles end quicker when you fight

214. because you fire off spells faster than I do.

215. Girl, I have dedicated the majority of my life to the pursuit of magic.

216. So have I.

217. How is she responding so quickly?

218. If I hadn't reflexively defended myself, that would've pierced my heart.

219. You blocked it.

220. So your heart is your weak point.

221. This girl...

222. I see.

223. You weren't lying about dedicating your life to magic.

224. Then I shall crush you with all my might.

225. Balterie.

226. Sounds like they've begun as well.

227. It's a shame, though.

228. We're nearly finished here.

229. Perhaps I'll observe their battle.

230. Lord Lügner gets cross when I interfere.

231. Oh?

232. We're not finished yet.

233. You're tough. Perhaps I'll be able to enjoy this a little.

234. My mana, technique, and control are all far greater than hers.

235. This girl cannot compare to me.

236. However, she's fast.

237. I'm being overwhelmed by the sheer number of attacks, pure and simple.

238. Damn you, Frieren. How did you train this girl?

239. I'll engage her in a battle of attrition and wait for her to exhaust her mana.

240. No, I can't.

241. The battle will be over before then.

242. If I could just create an opening...

243. Linie, what are you doing?

244. Hurry up and defeat him!

245. Honestly, how selfish.

246. He's refusing to do anything but fight defensively.

247. How are you wielding your axe like that?

248. Those are my master's techniques.

249. I'm skilled at reading mana.

250. I memorize the flow of mana inside a person when they move

251. and imitate their movements.

252. Just like this.

253. I knew it from the first time I saw your movements at the mansion.

254. They're the same as those of the powerful warrior I once memorized.

255. Coincidences really do happen.

256. Fate is an interesting thing.

257. You don't mean...

258. I am imitating the movements of Eisen the Warrior.

259. Seriously? This is crazy.

260. I can't win this fight.

261. He finally fell.

262. I must hurry.

263. Lord Lügner will be upset with me again.

264. "Fell"? Have I fallen?

265. Stand up, Stark.

266. No matter how battered you get, you cannot fall.

267. Yeah, but there's no way I can beat you.

268. Of course you can't.

269. I'm stronger than you.

270. Then...

271. But you got back up.

272. That means you haven't lost yet.

273. What kind of logic is that?

274. Stark, I'll teach you the secret to defeating powerful opponents.

275. It's simple.

276. Keep getting back up and hitting them.

277. For warriors, whoever's still standing at the end is the winner.

278. Damn it, Master.

279. You and your weird logic.

280. I guess your brain's made of muscles, like the rest of you.

281. You should've just stayed down.

282. You already lost.

283. I'm still standing.

284. Besides, I remember now.

285. My master's blows were heavier.

286. Yours are just imitations after all.

287. Then I will use those imitations to send you to your end.

288. Erfassen.

289. Balterie!

290. A wide swing, with no regard for defense.

291. He's lost his mind.

292. I was prepared for us to kill each other, but I shouldn't have been so scared.

293. Your attacks don't have any weight behind them at all.

294. Lightning Strike!

295. Linie!

296. Shi—

297. Zoltraak.

298. Demon-killing magic...

299. And you alright

300. Can you hear me

301. Trailing along deserted train tracks

302. Crying excessively

303. Wanting you to smile

304. I hold on to memories I'd like to keep fresh

305. There's something I'd like to tell you

306. With words more precious than a goodbye

307. Unremarkable yet special

308. See, things that couldn't have been

309. Seen if it weren't for these eyes

310. Why? They begin to overflow

311. So, if I were to be born again

312. I would surely choose this place once more

313. So, if we were to meet again

314. I'd never let you go, I'd choose the present

315. Even if no promises were made

316. Even if I'm lost in days of loneliness

317. Those tears will be alright, dawn will surely break

318. I'm whispering our lullaby

319. for you to come back home

320. She has roughly one-fifth of my mana.

321. I've heard there's a long-lived mage in these woods.

322. If she engages her directly, Frieren will lose.

323. You are no match for me.

324. What do you think, Heiter?

325. It's an elf village.
