00:00The winged knights launch repeated assaults on Castle Thor, while the demon can fend them
00:07off in a never-ending cycle.
00:09Meanwhile, Vermilio and Helc make their way through a barren desert, where Helc offers
00:15his sword to Vermilio, revealing its true identity as the Hero Slayer.

00:26in the human realm before any of this.
00:29And once you've heard the story, perhaps you will do me this favor.

02:10Here, you can have this.
02:12What, just some bread? But I worked all day long.
02:16Times are tough on everybody, alright?
02:18Please, you gotta help me.
02:20I got if you don't like it, then don't bother coming back. No, I'm sorry
02:34What's the matter loser better block me or you're gonna get hit
02:37Oh
02:49What you think that you could just tell me what to do that's not how it works out here
02:54And you know, is there something you want to say piss rat? That's what I thought don't get on the bad side of nobles
03:00You know what happens if you do you and all the other trash on the street gets dealt with I will not defy you
03:08And well, if you want to hit someone then hit me. Hey, you know what don't mind if I do
03:24My brother and I grew up orphans on the street
03:29When I was six years old a horde of beasts appeared in our village and took the lives of our mother and father
03:37The village was ravaged and there was nothing left to rebuild it
03:44Listen class, we're still alive and no matter what happens. We're going to keep on surviving for mom and dad
03:53It's alright I'm here for you, okay, I'm going to make sure to keep you safe
03:59We
04:02Headed for the royal capital we thought that if any place would have a job we could do it would be there
04:12But it turned out the royal capital was vastly different from what we had imagined
04:17The rich and the poor grew farther apart and those with nothing were treated worse than livestock
04:23The going was tough, but we decided to stay we lived on the outskirts
04:29And the slums it was a dismal place with hardly a scrap of food to be found anywhere
04:35But compared to living with the fear of monster attacks, it seemed our best option
04:42Damn he's a tough little turd. His big dick head broke my sword. Let's get going guys. I don't want stink on my clothes
04:50Yeah, see you next time gutter boy
04:54Getting abused by the nobility became part of everyday life
04:58But I didn't care as long as class was safe, are you all right big brother? Yeah, don't worry about me
05:12Enough crying you need to toughen up. I swore that I would protect my little brother
05:17I would protect him no matter what but you're all bloody and beat up and it's my fault
05:23You don't look so great yourself. You're in way worse looking shape than I am
05:27I said, don't worry, you know, I'm tougher than anybody right? Okay, here I go
05:39Minute you could do that when you were just a kid. Uh-huh from the beginning hold up
05:44That means your hero powers had already awakened suppose
05:47So you're probably right, but I just thought of myself as being a little more thick-skinned than everyone else. I
05:54I
05:55Wonder when it happened. I don't remember anything like suddenly getting powers
06:01Maybe he awakened when he was still just a baby
06:04Meaning he developed while totally free from any of the usual human limitations. No wonder he's so goddamn strong
06:12I'm sorry, please go on. I'm ready for more hot chocolate. How about you? Oh hell. Yeah
06:20The torment never seemed to stop
06:23Sometimes they throw our food into the river
06:26And our corner would get ransacked or lit on fire
06:29The older drunk nobles could get so bad sometimes
06:32I thought they were gonna kill me and some days whatever money we could make would just get taken away
06:39It got bad, but leaving the royal capital still wasn't an option
06:43Monsters had been spawning outside of the city in huge numbers bringing constant chaos and death
06:50So no matter how bad the abuse it was better than the thought of going out there
06:55nonetheless
06:56We tried to remain optimistic
06:59Bad news class. I got paid in bread again, but guess what? It's filled with cheese
07:06Look, I managed to haggle for some eggs, too. You're always so good at that stuff. Yeah. Yeah, keep it down you little buggers. I
07:16Didn't want to make life even worse
07:19Listen class the day will come when there aren't so many monsters and we'll get out of here
07:23The two of us will set out on a journey a journey. Mm-hmm
07:27That's right. We're gonna travel the world until we find a place where life is better than this
07:34I
07:36Didn't need wealth or luxury. I just wanted to be with class as long as the two of us could be happy
07:42It was more than enough
07:44But well, there was more trouble to come just around the corner the body's immune system has a hard time working with such malnutrition
07:53Well, your brother is very young class he might not last the night he can't die you gotta do something
08:01I'm not a doctor kid. I've just seen this before
08:05This is my fault I should have done more to find better food for him then he would be okay
08:11Now don't go blaming yourself just how life goes around here
08:15He's not the only one you know
08:17There's not much you can do about fate boy. Go to hell with fate. I won't accept it class is not dying
08:24Let's go. I'm gonna find you a doctor right now. Don't be crazy kid. What can you hope to accomplish without any money?
08:31I have some saved up for when we were ready to move
08:33Please
08:36Kid don't go getting your hopes up. Most of them think we're better off dead in a ditch. Anyway, don't be a fool
08:48The old-timer had a point but there was no way I was just gonna stand by and watch my brother die
08:54I went to house after house
08:58Knocking on door after door
09:01Begging for help over and over
09:04But I have money I can pay and if it's not enough, I promise I'll bring you more
09:10I'm begging you. Please just take a look at my brother. Hey, wait, how did you get all that money?
09:16Such filthy street garbage could never have that much ever unless he stole it. No, I didn't I've been earning all this little by little
09:24Hey call the guards. We've got a thief out here
09:31I
09:34Kept trying I
09:36Couldn't give up on him. Hey, bro. I'm sorry class, but please just try to hold on a little longer
09:43I'm sorry. I mean it. I'm always causing you trouble
09:49Hope don't be silly. You've never caused me trouble ever not even once
09:54Keep looking up. I'm going to find you a doctor anytime now, okay?
10:00You know once the weather warms up, why don't we head out it's hard to get much food here these days
10:06And the neighbors are such jerks things might actually be better for us living with the monsters
10:16Remember what I said about how we travel and find a nice place. That's where we're gonna live
10:21I know monsters and bandits might be scary, but we can do it
10:25I'll put on muscle until I'm strong enough to beat them and I'll send them all packing
10:30I'm sorry
10:32Trust me. I'm always gonna be there to protect you, buddy
10:37Buddy
10:45Stay with me. You can't die in a place like this. I started running frantically asking anyone I could find for help
10:55My little brother is dying. I have some money. Please take me to a doctor
11:00I'm begging you. Please help
11:02Somebody please help me
11:05Get going you filthy vermin don't spread your diseases around here. Go back where you came from
11:12Please help
11:15Somebody please help us
11:18Damn it. Damn it
11:22Hey little boy, what's the matter?
11:30You
11:35What's the matter a
11:37Noble you were shouting a moment ago. What's going on?
11:41But my brother is dying and needs a doctor. I'm begging you. Please help save my brother
11:52I'm sorry class. I really am damn it. I'm sorry
11:57father
11:59It's an emergency
12:01There's a dreadfully filthy boy over there who's about to die sweetie. I really need to teach you about having more tact in public
12:08Hurry father. He's very sick
12:16Hello son, how are we?
12:23Now the boy is very emaciated let's get him to a doctor right away
12:28Prepare the coach, but sir, you will be late to the party inform them. I won't be attending tonight as you wish
12:40Class just barely survived the night a few moments later and he would have been gone
12:47The man who saved us was a noble a member of the same hierarchy that had made our lives a living hell
12:54But at that point none of it really mattered to me gratitude was the only thing I
13:07And from that day forward our lives began to change in very drastic ways
13:24We can't hold the line any longer
13:27They'll be nowhere left for us to go if they break through but it's impossible to defeat them with just the troops we have left
13:33Retreating is not an option now act like a soldier
13:41Please no way
13:54He took it down with a single strike
14:00Look it's class. He saved us
14:16We will not lose this position
14:20You cover us from the rear
14:23Oh
14:25Right
14:28Leave your monsters standing third infantry regiment
14:53The
15:01Nobleman who saved class was a member of the prestigious
15:05Raffi add family who supported the royal family since the kingdom's founding and at my time of desperation
15:12The only person who heard me was their eldest daughter
15:16Shalami hey
15:18For whatever reason she came to visit us even after class got better we became friends
15:24There was no one else like her. She didn't think bad of the poor and treated us normally
15:32After we started spending more time with her the number of nobles harassing us started to dwindle
15:38They must have figured we were servants who were working for Shalami's family or something
15:43No matter the case it was truly comforting to me
15:48But for some reason it left class at odds
15:52The people we knew from the slums were still out there living in filth and destitution and that fact aided class
15:59He took no pleasure from our new situation
16:03Remember what the old-timer said as long as monsters are around the people of the capital will always feel unsafe. Yeah
16:10And when there's always a threat everyone focuses on protecting their own
16:14So even if someone started a movement to stop the crimes against the poor nobody would join
16:19Yeah, but if the threat of the monsters goes away and people feel safe in the kingdom
16:24Then the capital will be a much better place. Yep
16:30So help I want to become a royal soldier someday
16:33Hmm, I'll train to be a super strong warrior like Shalami's dad and free everyone from the monsters
16:39Okay
16:41At the age of five and Klaus began following the new path he chose
16:49And from that point onward he would train his body every day without fail
16:59He joined the army at 16 and by the time he turned 18 he had already been promoted to captain
17:06Oh
17:14Hey nice to see you sir
17:17Greetings help. I happen to catch sight of you while passing by. Have you been? Well, I have
17:25It looks as though class has really made a name for himself, huh
17:29Whenever he goes out onto the battlefield, I get the feeling the kingdom grows a bit brighter
17:35Actually, it's more than just a feeling
17:37The people of the kingdom have been totally won over by his charisma
17:41That sickly boy from all those years ago grew into a more capable warrior than any other soldier in the entire kingdom
17:49Hell, I don't even think I could compete with your brother at this point
17:54Impossible sir, don't sell yourself short
17:56You don't have to humor me
17:58Klaus still has room to grow even stronger and I have no doubt that he will
18:04I would go so far as to say that Klaus may become the savior of the whole of the realm
18:10The Savior you think so
18:14That is a lot for me to chew on
18:19Sorry sir better get back to work right? Of course. Thank you for your time
18:26By the way help
18:28Yes, sir. There's something special about you too. I can feel something powerful within you as well
18:35Now it may just be my imagination
18:38But I am willing to bet you're just as strong as your younger brother now, that is funny, sir
18:44I'm just beefy it happens when you do a bunch of the heavy lifting
18:49Besides my swordsmanship is terrible compared to class and he's a much better fighter than I am. Hmm
18:56Casualties from monster attacks are on the rise
18:59There wouldn't be as much to worry about if we had another class around just a stray thought I had
19:05Thanks and all but turns out I'm just better suited for construction and moving heavy things around fair enough
19:12That's an important job in its own rights. Keep up the good work
19:16Thinking about it now. He was probably picking up on some things. I hadn't even noticed myself yet
19:26Huh
19:30Is that class and shall I miss oh my oh my my my
19:37Call me crazy, but I think the flowers of love are in bloom
19:41Those two actually might be more than just friends. No, no way. She's from a prominent family of nobles
19:49That'll make it a tough road for them. But it's his big bro. He can count on my full support
19:56Class your brother is all alone with a giant grin on his face. My brother's smile is perpetual
20:01You two always seem to be in a positive way, don't you? Mm-hmm. Oh glad you finally made it. Thanks for waiting
20:08I stumbled into shallow me on the way here ever since class became a part of the army
20:12He and I were forced to live apart
20:15Although we didn't see each other often we would occasionally find some time to meet up for dinner
20:21And
20:23The days that the three of us spent together were some of the most enjoyable I can remember
20:29By the way, Hulk, I'll be leaving the capital for another expedition the day after tomorrow
20:34The monsters we've been assigned to take care of her nasty so I might not be able to come home for some time. Oh
20:41really
20:42Well, I'm not worried. I know you're skilled enough to bring down anything
20:46Just don't do too much if something happened to you I wouldn't be the only one to mourn your loss, right?
20:55When I get back you're gonna have to cook my favorite meal for me
20:59You know it one of my special stamina boosting protein plates will be waiting on the table
21:05Just make sure you come back alive. We'll do bro
21:09turns out
21:10We never got the chance to have that party. In fact, I got sent out to
21:16Are you a psycho?
21:18No, I'm just a lady
21:21I'm a super hero
21:23If you want to know what I'm like
21:25You'd better find out
21:27You're gonna have to come with me
21:29I'm coming with you
21:31I'm coming with you
