00:00Well then, I guess I will consider the experiment a success for now.
00:23More importantly...
00:30What's wrong?
00:31Don't tell me the sudden hero status is wearing you out already.
00:36Yeah, maybe a little, but something's bothering me.
00:44Is it that easy to become a demonoid?
00:47You're right.
00:49Huh? Huh? What's easy?
00:51You know the previous demonoid? He was a strong magician.
00:54They say he messed up while casting advanced magic, and apparently that's how he demonized.
01:00But Rietzberg, he had just barely enrolled in the Academy.
01:04At worst, if he lost control of his spell, he would overthrottle.
01:08But to go full demonoid...
01:11Well, he did, and the whole thing was pretty crazy.
01:14Do you think...
01:16Maybe this was artificially induced?
01:18You mean, like someone did this to him?
01:21According to Grandpa, demonoids lose all sense of reason. They can't communicate, they can only howl.
01:27But when Kurt turned demonoid, he could still talk.
01:33And when it came to actual combat, he was pretty weak.
01:37A demonoid was weak?
01:41Something about this doesn't add up.
01:43Hey, what if Kurt was used in some kind of human experiment?
02:44Magic is fine, isn't it?
02:46There's no problem with changing your personality.
02:49If you want something more,
02:51If you want something more, you'll get it.
02:53Magic is fine, isn't it?
02:56I want to see your amazing smile.
02:59If you want to be a genius, you just have to go for it.
03:04I'll show you the ultimate experience, forever.
03:09I use magic for you.
03:11I only need your magic.
03:13I use magic forever.
03:30Uncle Dease?
03:31Oh, this is good timing. Welcome home, Shin.
03:36Sir!
03:38Our noble majesty values heroism in the kingdom of Earlshide's time of need.
03:43In a selfless act of bravery, you successfully slayed a demonoid.
03:47Therefore, we would be honored to present you the First Order of Merit.
03:52The First Order of...
03:54Hold on, are you giving me a medal?
04:00Deasom, did you not say you weren't going to use Shin for political gain?
04:06What's all this fanfare about?
04:09You know the danger.
04:10The last time this happened,
04:12the demonoid's attack left the kingdom of Earlshide on the verge of extermination.
04:17That threat looms over us yet again.
04:19As you can imagine,
04:21news has spread quickly among the people about both the appearance of the demonoid and its suppression.
04:27For the sake of the kingdom,
04:29we must address these matters by going public.
04:32Yes, I understand that much.
04:34But what is the meaning of awarding the young lad?
04:37How would it look if we denied him an award for a feat you two have also accomplished?
04:43I suppose you do make a good point.
04:45Of course.
04:46There are those who wish to profit by exploiting him.
04:49But I'll do all that I can to prevent that.
04:52So please, I implore you to allow this to happen.
04:55Not for my sake, but for the people.
05:01Very well, Deasom, you win.
05:03We'll take you at your word in this.
05:05But if you break your word, we will leave this kingdom at once.
05:09Is that understood?
05:11Absolutely.
05:12You can trust me.
05:13You know, a nation's king really shouldn't bow to someone else so readily.
05:19Honestly, you seem to go from one spot of trouble to another.
05:23Uh, wait.
05:24This is my fault?
05:30Everyone, look.
05:31It's Shin.
05:32That's the new hero who defeated a demonoid.
05:34Wow, he's so cool.
05:36Yeah.
05:37He's cute, too.
05:39My Uncle Dee said he issued a gag order, but that doesn't seem to stop anyone from gossiping about it.
05:44Well, what'd you expect?
05:46His Majesty specifically said we couldn't keep you defeating the demonoid a secret.
05:51But he also said we weren't allowed to reveal any additional details about the attack to the people, remember?
05:56Who are those two girls walking with him?
05:59Come on.
06:00There's no way someone who's as amazing as Shin hasn't already been spoken for.
06:04Yeah.
06:05One of them could be his fiancée.
06:10Sicilian.
06:12I'm sorry for this.
06:14Oh, no, it's fine.
06:15Really.
06:16You sure?
06:17I'm here walking by your side of my own initiative.
06:20So please don't doubt my intentions, okay?
06:24Sicilian.
06:25I offered to help you of my own initiative.
06:28So don't doubt my intentions, okay?
06:35We're begging you, sir!
06:37Please let us in!
06:38We want to study with the Wise Man's grandson!
06:41This is a nightmare.
06:43I can't let all of them into the study group.
06:45They're relentless.
06:47All right, then.
06:48Who can use other-dimensional storage space?
06:52That's the minimum standard.
06:54If you can do that, then stick around.
06:56And I'll conduct an entrance exam.
07:00What did you say?
07:01You really think there's a chance the demonoid was artificially created?
07:05Yes.
07:06Shin himself came up with this theory after fighting him personally.
07:09Then that means the recent increase in demons may be linked.
07:15Yes.
07:16This could be a very serious situation.
07:19Dominic.
07:20Dennis.
07:21Investigate this.
07:23Work together to find out whatever you can.
07:26Do not overlook anything.
07:28As you wish.
07:33Pardon the interruption.
07:36Hello there.
07:37Are you the students who passed Mr. Marcus's entrance exam?
07:40Yes, and it's an honor to be joining you all.
07:42I'm Mark Bean.
07:43My family runs a smithy that's called Beanworks.
07:46Oh, yeah?
07:47I've definitely heard of that.
07:48It's a well-known outfit.
07:50Well-known?
07:51They're good?
07:52The weapons at Beanworks are nice and sharp.
07:55I've always wanted one.
07:57Nice.
07:58And you are?
07:59Oh, right.
08:00I'm Olivia Stone.
08:02I've known Mark since we were just kids.
08:04You might have heard of my family's restaurant called The Brick Oven.
08:07Are you kidding me?
08:09That place is awesome!
08:10I dream about their brick oven gratin.
08:12It's perfection!
08:13Oh, man.
08:14I actually celebrated passing my academy entrance exams by eating there, and it was amazing.
08:19I'm jealous.
08:20You really lucked out.
08:21It was so busy that we couldn't get a reservation.
08:24Thanks, Leonard.
08:25If you want, you should all come by again.
08:28I'll serve you personally.
08:30I'm so in!
08:31Can't these guys get my official seal of approval?
08:33That is no way to welcome them!
08:35So, Mark, since you're the son of a blacksmith, does that mean you can make blades?
08:40Uh, sorta.
08:42But I'm not exactly an expert.
08:44At this point, I've only been able to manage crafting a few knives.
08:48Too bad.
08:49If you had the skill, I would have asked you to make me a new weapon.
08:53I don't even know if that's possible.
08:55I mean, you slayed a demonoid with that sword.
08:58I doubt you'd have any luck finding a replacement for that.
09:01Nah.
09:02It was just a sword.
09:03Nothing special.
09:04Huh?
09:05But it is enchanted, so the blade vibrates at ultrasonic speed.
09:09Thanks to that, I can cut through almost anything without much force.
09:14I like blades to be a bit on the thin side, but as a result, they can break easily.
09:18I was hoping I could make some improvements to it.
09:21If that's all you need, I think I can do it.
09:24But I'll be asking for your input in the process.
09:27Seriously?
09:28I've had a hard time with the finer details.
09:30Thanks a lot.
09:32Is there anything that brain of yours can't come up with, Shin?
09:35That's incredible.
09:37I used to think that my enchanting skills were decent, but now I'm not so sure.
09:42Hey, don't be so down on yourself, Yuri.
09:45I can ask Granny to show you how to improve your technique if you want.
09:49You mean it?
09:50Thank you!
09:51I'm so happy!
09:59Seems Kurt was visited by a middle school teacher the day he demonized.
10:05Sounds like something we should investigate.
10:11I am Security Bureau Investigator Alt Liekerman.
10:14And I'm Investigator Carlos Bale.
10:17Oliver Strahm at your service.
10:21Would that be sensory magic?
10:24Forgive me.
10:25You have a patch covering both of your eyes, but you move naturally.
10:29I thought you might be using magic to replace your sight.
10:33Ah, well, something like that.
10:36I mean no offense by asking, but what happened?
10:40It may surprise you, but I was born to a noble family in the Empire.
10:46Years later, there was a power struggle, and I was exiled to the Kingdom.
10:51The fight for leadership was violent, and a family member attempted to fatally wound me.
10:56I survived, my eyes did not.
10:58That's terrible.
11:00I shouldn't have asked such a personal question.
11:03No, I get asked about it all the time.
11:06Anyhow, what brings you men here today?
11:09Surely you didn't come here just to ask me questions about my eyes.
11:13No.
11:14Mr. Strahm, sir, we are aware that you have formed a study group for students with magical aptitude,
11:20and that you have fostered some exceptionally talented magicians.
11:23That's right. What about it?
11:26We've heard that you were quite enthusiastic, inviting many students to join the study group.
11:32Well, I am a one-time noble of the Empire.
11:35I'm accustomed to facing opposition in the Kingdom.
11:39In order to establish myself at this school, I needed to show tangible results.
11:44So that's why. Go on.
11:46All of the students who participated in my study group, well, they improved their abilities dramatically.
11:53And as a result, they're starting to acknowledge me little by little.
11:57Well then, this incident must be quite a blow.
12:00Indeed it is. It pains me to know this happened to Kurt.
12:06Mr. Strahm, if it isn't a bother, may I ask a favor of you?
12:10What is it?
12:12Currently, we're assembling specialists. We plan to examine the victim's demonized corpse.
12:17Your insight would be truly invaluable.
12:20Why would you ask me?
12:22In addition to your work with the study group, I've heard you are a fairly high-level magician, Mr. Strahm.
12:27Any help you can lend would be most appreciated.
12:30In that case, I'd be pleased to assist.
12:35To Be Continued
13:05An increased durability, huh? That's gonna be tricky.
13:08Yeah, but if you do break it, can't you just replace it with another one?
13:12I mean, come on, you are the wise man's grandson. I bet you can afford a whole armory.
13:17That's not an option. I don't get very much of an allowance.
13:21What? That's surprising.
13:23But it's true. Granny told Grandpa not to spoil me, so I'll learn the value of money. Or something.
13:30That sounds like the guru. Moderation can be just as much of an asset as a suit of armor.
13:35That's one way to look at it, I guess.
13:38If breakage is the issue, maybe it would be a good idea to make the blades easily replaceable.
13:44Think about it. You could hang onto the same hilt, so that's one less expense to deal with.
13:50The hilt and blade are always firmly attached for typical use, but since you don't need to use much force at all,
13:55that feature wouldn't be as important in its construction.
13:58Huh. That might work. You think you could come by my place right now?
14:02I want to try that out while I'm inspired.
14:05Hey, can I come too?
14:07Yes, me as well.
14:09Sitzillion, Maria, do you mind if we stop by Mark's place?
14:13Sure, no problem.
14:14Oh, yeah. Go on ahead.
14:16While you boys are over at the workshop, I think we'll pay a little visit to Olivia's place.
14:21Hmm?
14:22I still have so many questions to ask you.
14:25We can talk all about the menu. How do you feel about adding a few more items to it?
14:29Does that mean you agree to go with me?
14:48Pardon me, may I ask why the examination is taking place here?
14:52I know it isn't ideal, but it's our best option.
14:58It's empty. Where's Kurt's body?
15:03So you didn't bring me here to examine a body after all.
15:07Oh, we'll be examining a body. Your body.
15:10Indeed?
15:12See, Mr. Strom? You made a critical misstep.
15:17After the boy had demonized, His Majesty issued a gag order.
15:21We were specifically asked that we do not reveal his name to the public.
15:25To protect his family from being unjustly treated, it was imperative that we kept a tight lid on it.
15:31But somehow, you knew that it was Kurt who had been demonized.
15:35How could you have known?
15:44Well, that's rich. I didn't have a clue that his name was private.
15:48It's had the kingdom in such an uproar.
15:51With all the gossip going around, I just assumed everyone would know who the demonoid was by now.
15:56Are you the one who's responsible for this?
15:58What exactly was your objective?
16:00Just an experiment.
16:02What? You were conducting experiments on humans?
16:06Yes, that's right.
16:08And now, since I've completed all my experiments here in the capital, I think it's a good time for me to excuse myself.
16:14Seize him right now! Don't let him get away!
16:17Yes, sir!
16:23No way! You and Mark are really a couple?
16:26We basically grew up together, so it just happened.
16:29I want to know every single detail.
16:31Every detail?
16:32Of course we want to know, are you kidding me?
16:35What in the world?
16:36Harold?
16:45That thing covering his eyes... Og, is that the guy?
16:49Yes. Our middle school teacher, Oliver Strahm.
16:54Oh, look. If it isn't Prince August and his trusty companion, the hero, Shen Wilford.
17:01He's dangerous. Please run away.
17:03This man is the culprit behind the demonoid incident.
17:06He is? You're the one who turned Kurt into a demonoid?
17:10That's right. A fascinating specimen who danced to my tune quite brilliantly.
17:15I've heard enough.
17:18I knew there was something weird going on!
17:31Your sword. It's enchanted, yes?
17:34Maybe!
17:39You've got spunk. I'll give you that much.
17:44Playing dirty? Take this!
17:48Had to go up there, huh?
17:50Well, you can't dodge this!
17:53Isn't hovering in midair going against the rules?
17:57Don't tell me the grandson of the great wise man can't use floating magic.
18:02No. But guess what?
18:06I can fly for a moment!
18:11Incoming!
18:15A little advice, boy.
18:18Don't trust your luck!
18:27Red eyes? No.
18:29Now you've done it, Wilford. How annoying.
18:33I would have preferred to leave the capital with my true identity still hidden.
18:37How can you be a demonoid with your sense of reason intact?
18:41My sense of reason?
18:43If you're under the assumption that reason is what separates demons from humans,
18:48then I suppose you could say I'm an exception to the rule.
18:52What do you mean?
18:53Now that I have been demonized,
18:55humans have been reduced to little more than insignificant creatures for me to experiment on.
19:00I can kill them or exploit them at will.
19:03You creatures mean nothing to me anymore!
19:06That bastard!
19:08This is bad. I have to...
19:10Stop you!
19:17What's the matter with you? Is it a bad dream?
19:21What's the matter with you? Is your terror of me making you clumsy?
19:26This is why I can't abide humans.
19:28Stay where you are just a little longer.
19:31Another moment, and you'll see what my magic can do.
19:35The wise man's grandson, and you're a helpless fool.
19:40You're in for it now!
19:51Nick!
20:08You got him, right?
20:10Don't jinx it like that, Og!
20:12Huh?
20:14The high temperature turned the ground to glass.
20:17Glass? How did he create a heat ray that intense?
20:22My search magic hasn't picked anything up.
20:25Does that mean I really got him?
20:27Cheer up! Why the long face?
20:30He was a demonoid.
20:32You don't regret killing him, do you?
20:34No, it's not that.
20:36You should hold your head high, then.
20:39Take pride in the fact that you saved all our lives.
20:42Thank you, Shin Wolfert.
20:44Oh, you don't have to thank me.
20:46We came as quickly as we could when we heard that another demonoid appeared.
20:50But much to our surprise, you'd already taken him down.
20:54Pleased to meet you. I'm Dominic Gastor.
20:57I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
21:00Oh, dear. I haven't introduced myself either, have I?
21:04The name is Rupert Oldren, Captain of the Court Magic Division.
21:08Mikhail told me all about his immensely talented pupil.
21:12He also expressed how much he enjoyed training you, young man.
21:16Wolfert.
21:18If you wouldn't mind humoring my curiosity,
21:21what exactly did you do and how?
21:23Let's see.
21:25I converged the light from the sun and blasted it down as a heat ray.
21:29From the sun?
21:31And you got that much force out of it?
21:33Well, you see, the sun puts out more than one kind of light.
21:36So I just visualized collecting the light that emits heat,
21:39and from there it was relatively...
21:41Straightforward.
21:43They have no idea what I mean.
21:45Still, was it just a heat ray that created the explosion?
22:10I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:13I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:16I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:19I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:22I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:25I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:28I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:31I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:34I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:37I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:40I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:43I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:46I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:49I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:52I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:55I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
22:58I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:01I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:04I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:07I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:10I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:13I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:16I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:19I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:22I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:25I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:28I'm Mikhail's successor as the Knight Commander of the Order.
23:31Luckily, I was able to get out of there.
23:34But the only way was to release explosive magic.
23:37But if I'd endured even a fraction more of his magic,
23:40I could very well have annihilated me.
23:44That boy is more formidable than I first thought.
23:47I'll have to take every precaution to ensure that he won't interfere with my plans.
