Gaius : It's simply no use. |
(0:00:38.44) |
Gaius : My crest has no room left to grow. |
(0:00:40.55) |
Gaius : The first crest, my crest, specializes in creation. |
(0:00:46.29) |
Gaius : The second specializes in power. |
(0:00:50.48) |
Gaius : The third specializes in rapid firing. |
(0:00:53.65) |
Gaius : If I want to grow stronger, |
(0:00:57.78) |
Gaius : I must acquire the fourth crest, the one best suited to combat. |
(0:01:00.17) |
Gaius : One's crest appears at birth and cannot be changed. |
(0:01:05.34) |
Gaius : Which means... |
(0:01:09.26) |
EXTRA : We'll be reaching the capital soon. |
(0:01:37.85) |
EXTRA : Impressive that you're leaving home and taking exams at age twelve. |
(0:01:40.79) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I'm determined to enter the academy and become strong. |
(0:01:46.51) |
EXTRA : It's not safe to go too quickly. |
(0:01:49.56) |
EXTRA : You might have been a big fish where you came from, |
(0:01:51.51) |
EXTRA : but that crest of yours... |
(0:01:53.91) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : There's a monster nearby. |
(0:01:57.57) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It's heading our way. |
(0:01:59.28) |
EXTRA : Eh? |
(0:02:00.68) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It might be a rather large monster. |
(0:02:01.73) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Many times bigger than your wagon. |
(0:02:04.15) |
EXTRA : You say the strangest things. |
(0:02:06.98) |
EXTRA : That would make it a calamity-grade monster. |
(0:02:10.33) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Dispatch successful. |
(0:02:22.44) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Easily handled with just Enhance Physique and Sunder Steel. |
(0:02:25.94) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That's the capital for you... |
(0:02:50.79) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Completely unlike my homeland. |
(0:02:52.87) |
Alma Lepucius : My friend's sword broke! |
(0:02:54.75) |
Alma Lepucius : Can you make me one just like it? |
(0:02:56.86) |
EXTRA : Stop shouting! I hear you just fine! |
(0:02:59.80) |
Alma Lepucius : I'm sorry. |
(0:03:02.54) |
Alma Lepucius : But see... She broke her magic sword while protecting me from a monster. |
(0:03:04.40) |
EXTRA : Magic sword? |
(0:03:09.16) |
EXTRA : And you want me to remake a magic sword? |
(0:03:10.60) |
EXTRA : You can't possibly be serious! |
(0:03:12.91) |
Alma Lepucius : Isn't there anything you can do? |
(0:03:15.17) |
EXTRA : I'm afraid you're out of luck. |
(0:03:18.00) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : These weapons are well made... |
(0:03:20.15) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Though the enchantments are poorly applied. |
(0:03:22.37) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Are there any other swords? |
(0:03:25.03) |
EXTRA : It simply can't be done. |
(0:03:26.49) |
Alma Lepucius : I'm begging you! |
(0:03:28.61) |
Alma Lepucius : The entrance exams are tomorrow! |
(0:03:30.07) |
Alma Lepucius : If I don't get her a sword, she'll— |
(0:03:32.07) |
EXTRA : If you need it that fast, you might have better luck elsewhere. |
(0:03:33.88) |
EXTRA : It's not as if I can forge a magic sword by myself. |
(0:03:37.52) |
Alma Lepucius : We've tried everyone else already! |
(0:03:41.17) |
EXTRA : Would one of our ready-made swords do? |
(0:03:43.38) |
Alma Lepucius : Hmm... |
(0:03:45.50) |
Alma Lepucius : It should be about this long, |
(0:03:47.08) |
Alma Lepucius : and light enough that a girl can swing it around like this with one hand! |
(0:03:49.24) |
EXTRA : A sword like that certainly would have to be enchanted... |
(0:03:53.20) |
EXTRA : But it won't be easy to make. |
(0:03:58.77) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I can handle the enchantment. |
(0:04:01.07) |
Alma Lepucius : You can? |
(0:04:03.60) |
EXTRA : Look, kid... I get that you want to show off... |
(0:04:05.11) |
EXTRA : But it can't be done, and she needs to accept that. |
(0:04:08.68) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It's true that my fourth crest isn't well suited to enchantments. |
(0:04:12.77) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : But I think I can handle a basic magic sword. |
(0:04:17.27) |
EXTRA : Isn't that the Crest of Failure? |
(0:04:19.88) |
EXTRA : All the more impossible, then. |
(0:04:22.68) |
Alma Lepucius : Make me a sword! |
(0:04:24.78) |
Alma Lepucius : One with a setting for a magistone. |
(0:04:28.08) |
EXTRA : Wait, you mean— |
(0:04:30.80) |
Alma Lepucius : I'm going to put my faith in him. |
(0:04:33.44) |
EXTRA : A-Are you sure? |
(0:04:35.94) |
EXTRA : If he fails, the sword will be fine, |
(0:04:37.48) |
EXTRA : but you'll have wasted a magistone. |
(0:04:39.71) |
Alma Lepucius : I still think he can do it. |
(0:04:41.45) |
Alma Lepucius : I've got good instincts about these things! |
(0:04:43.99) |
Alma Lepucius : Let's get on that enchantment, kid! |
(0:04:48.29) |
Alma Lepucius : Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. |
(0:04:55.51) |
Alma Lepucius : I'm Alma. Alma Lepucius. |
(0:04:58.66) |
Alma Lepucius : I didn't want my parents marrying me off to some weirdo, |
(0:05:01.86) |
Alma Lepucius : so I set off on my own! |
(0:05:04.52) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I'm Matthias. Matthias Hildesheimer. |
(0:05:06.74) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : You can call me "Matty." |
(0:05:10.65) |
Alma Lepucius : Sure! It's a pleasure, Matty! |
(0:05:12.59) |
Alma Lepucius : Oh, right! I've got a friend! |
(0:05:16.70) |
Alma Lepucius : The sword is hers. We left home together! |
(0:05:18.76) |
Lurie Abendroth : Alma? |
(0:05:22.47) |
Alma Lepucius : Speak of the devil! |
(0:05:24.40) |
Alma Lepucius : Lurie! |
(0:05:26.06) |
Lurie Abendroth : Alma. Did you have any luck at this shop? |
(0:05:26.88) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Sh-She's beautiful! |
(0:05:32.26) |
Lurie Abendroth : I'm afraid every shop I tried turned me down... |
(0:05:34.17) |
Lurie Abendroth : It simply might not be possible to make a magic sword by tomo— |
(0:05:36.92) |
Alma Lepucius : Oh, this guy? He's Matty! |
(0:05:39.54) |
Alma Lepucius : He said he'd enchant a sword for us! |
(0:05:41.83) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : A-Allow me to introduce myself! |
(0:05:45.87) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I am humbly referred to as Matthias Hildesheimer! |
(0:05:47.70) |
Alma Lepucius : Where'd the formality come from? |
(0:05:49.71) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Was my introduction that off-putting? |
(0:05:54.04) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : This is what I get for never having friends! |
(0:05:56.73) |
Alma Lepucius : What's wrong, Lurie? |
(0:06:00.48) |
Lurie Abendroth : I-I'm Lurie Abendroth! |
(0:06:03.08) |
Lurie Abendroth : I'm neither engaged nor romantically involved. |
(0:06:05.97) |
Lurie Abendroth : You may call me "Lurie," if you wish... |
(0:06:08.46) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : "Romantically involved"? |
(0:06:12.76) |
Lurie Abendroth : Um... well... |
(0:06:13.76) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I had no idea it was customary here to reveal your relationship status. |
(0:06:16.35) |
EXTRA : It's all done! |
(0:06:22.71) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I'll begin the enchantment. |
(0:06:25.77) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Could you hand me the magistone? |
(0:06:28.36) |
Alma Lepucius : You can do it here? |
(0:06:30.52) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It won't take that long. |
(0:06:31.64) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I'm going to begin. |
(0:06:35.76) |
Lurie Abendroth : P-Please do... |
(0:06:36.57) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : The only way to make something this long and light sturdy enough for live combat |
(0:06:39.89) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : is to add Enhance Fortitude and Sunder Steel. |
(0:06:43.40) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That should do it. |
(0:06:49.84) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Here, try it. |
(0:06:51.51) |
Alma Lepucius : That was fast! Is it really enchanted? |
(0:06:52.46) |
EXTRA : There's no way he could do it that fast. |
(0:06:54.64) |
Alma Lepucius : Yeah, isn't it supposed to take way longer? |
(0:06:57.47) |
EXTRA : And he didn't even recite an incantation! |
(0:07:00.74) |
Lurie Abendroth : Let me try it. |
(0:07:04.16) |
Lurie Abendroth : It's easy enough to tell if an enchantment— |
(0:07:06.00) |
Lurie Abendroth : The enchantment worked! |
(0:07:14.50) |
Alma Lepucius : That's crazy sharp! |
(0:07:16.72) |
EXTRA : And it took him just moments... |
(0:07:18.45) |
EXTRA : What trickery is this? |
(0:07:20.27) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It's just a standard enchantment. |
(0:07:22.13) |
Alma Lepucius : That's anything but "standard"! |
(0:07:24.08) |
Alma Lepucius : Who in the world are you, Matty? |
(0:07:26.54) |
EXTRA : It shouldn't be possible to enchant a sword that quickly. |
(0:07:29.49) |
EXTRA : But the sword has clearly been enchanted, |
(0:07:32.93) |
EXTRA : and you didn't recite an incantation. |
(0:07:36.77) |
EXTRA : As I forged that sword myself, |
(0:07:38.44) |
EXTRA : I'd know whether you swapped it out with sleight-of-hand. |
(0:07:40.02) |
EXTRA : The only possible conclusion is... |
(0:07:43.23) |
Alma Lepucius : Gulp! |
(0:07:45.87) |
Lurie Abendroth : Is...? |
(0:07:47.16) |
EXTRA : You wanna become an enchanter, kid? |
(0:07:52.19) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Nope. |
(0:07:54.88) |
EXTRA : The practical skills exam will now begin. |
(0:07:58.44) |
EXTRA : Fields tested will include swordsmanship and casting. |
(0:08:01.04) |
EXTRA : Yes, sir! |
(0:08:03.16) |
Lurie Abendroth : Matty! |
(0:08:05.60) |
Lurie Abendroth : You're taking entrance exams, too? |
(0:08:09.23) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Y-Yes... |
(0:08:12.10) |
Alma Lepucius : The tactics portion was way too hard! |
(0:08:13.54) |
Alma Lepucius : I did just fine in every other subject... |
(0:08:16.74) |
Lurie Abendroth : Alma, Matty! |
(0:08:21.52) |
Lurie Abendroth : Let's work together to pass the test! |
(0:08:23.66) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Sure. |
(0:08:26.10) |
Alma Lepucius : 'Kay... |
(0:08:27.46) |
Lukas : You're wide open! |
(0:08:30.99) |
Lukas : You're doing quite well. |
(0:08:36.34) |
Lukas : But can you dodge this next one? |
(0:08:38.46) |
Lukas : S-S-Say what?! |
(0:08:42.02) |
Lukas : I surrender! |
(0:08:44.94) |
Lukas : Where did you get that sword? |
(0:08:46.77) |
Lurie Abendroth : I did it, Matty! |
(0:08:51.72) |
Alma Lepucius : Congratulations, Lurie! |
(0:08:53.84) |
Lurie Abendroth : I couldn't have done it without that magic sword you made me! |
(0:08:55.81) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I-It's nothing, really... |
(0:08:57.97) |
EXTRA : Next up, Matthias Hildesheimer! |
(0:08:59.38) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Seems to be my turn. |
(0:09:02.39) |
Lurie Abendroth : Give it your best, Matty! |
(0:09:04.38) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I will. |
(0:09:06.35) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Wait, where's the examiner? |
(0:09:07.73) |
Guile : Matthias Hildesheimer... |
(0:09:10.54) |
Guile : I hear you're the one who enchanted Lurie Abendroth's sword. |
(0:09:12.85) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : And? Who are you? |
(0:09:17.12) |
Guile : You'll need more than an examiner, then... |
(0:09:19.75) |
Guile : I'll fight you myself. |
(0:09:21.69) |
Guile : I'd like to see what your father Castor taught you, as well. |
(0:09:23.77) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : You know my father? |
(0:09:28.99) |
Guile : Yes. |
(0:09:30.38) |
Guile : If you handle yourself well enough against me, |
(0:09:31.78) |
Guile : I'll vouch for you to pass, regardless of your other test scores. |
(0:09:33.57) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Very well. |
(0:09:36.89) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : His stance leaves him wide open. |
(0:09:42.10) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : He thinks he's taking it easy on me. |
(0:09:44.35) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That's also why he said, "If you handle yourself well enough." |
(0:09:47.31) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I feel a bit insulted... |
(0:09:50.86) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : This is a test! |
(0:09:53.65) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Its purpose is to show them what I can do! |
(0:09:55.16) |
Guile : What? |
(0:10:00.95) |
Guile : A boy your age, parrying my strike... |
(0:10:01.97) |
Guile : I surrender. |
(0:10:13.77) |
EXTRA : Captain of the Knights' Order, Guile, lost... |
(0:10:15.16) |
Alma Lepucius : Wow! Isn't he great, Lurie? |
(0:10:17.94) |
Lurie Abendroth : Yes! |
(0:10:20.22) |
Lurie Abendroth : Although it happened so quickly I couldn't quite follow! |
(0:10:21.03) |
EXTRA : Next, we'll conduct the casting exam. |
(0:10:25.55) |
EXTRA : Lurie Abendroth. Step forward! |
(0:10:28.10) |
Lurie Abendroth : Yes, sir! |
(0:10:30.19) |
EXTRA : Please attack all five targets with Fire Arrow! |
(0:10:31.55) |
Lurie Abendroth : Magic of flame that dwells within me... |
(0:10:39.09) |
Lurie Abendroth : Pierce my foe in the form of an arrow! |
(0:10:41.55) |
Alma Lepucius : Lurie! Keep it up! |
(0:10:47.16) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Incanted casting? |
(0:10:49.42) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : As the name suggests, it's a method for casting spells |
(0:10:51.69) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : through the recitation of particular words. |
(0:10:55.06) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Anyone can use it regardless of ability, |
(0:10:56.83) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : but it offers a poor conversion rate on the user's magic power, |
(0:10:59.48) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : and you're vulnerable to attacks mid-chant. |
(0:11:03.20) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : They're not ideal for combat. |
(0:11:06.08) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I'd thought the practice was long dead, but... |
(0:11:07.87) |
Alma Lepucius : Yes! |
(0:11:09.66) |
EXTRA : That's the Crest of Glory! What an elite! |
(0:11:11.06) |
EXTRA : Wish I'd been born with the Crest of Glory, too... |
(0:11:13.94) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : But in this day and age, |
(0:11:18.04) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : the first crest, which is highly compatible with incanted casting, |
(0:11:19.92) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : is labeled the "Crest of Glory" |
(0:11:22.95) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : and considered the best crest for magical combat. |
(0:11:24.54) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Meanwhile... |
(0:11:28.97) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : My fourth crest is... |
(0:11:30.40) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Excuse me. Is Fire Arrow the only spell allowed? |
(0:11:34.14) |
EXTRA : Not necessarily, but it's the most basic spell, so... |
(0:11:37.42) |
EXTRA : You've got the Crest of Failure, |
(0:11:43.34) |
EXTRA : but if you do well in the other subjects, you might still pass. |
(0:11:44.54) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : As long as I destroy the targets, correct? |
(0:11:47.88) |
EXTRA : Well, yes... |
(0:11:50.23) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : "Crest of Failure" casting has extremely limited range. |
(0:11:51.79) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I don't think I could even reach a third of the way to the target. |
(0:11:55.66) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : You might want to stand a bit farther away, sir. |
(0:12:00.26) |
EXTRA : What? |
(0:12:03.36) |
EXTRA : What's he doing? |
(0:12:05.32) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I can assign it limited directionality, |
(0:12:06.16) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : but it won't be free of collateral damage. |
(0:12:08.37) |
Alma Lepucius : H-How is he casting? He didn't recite an incantation! |
(0:12:10.20) |
Lurie Abendroth : Could it be... a wordless spell? |
(0:12:14.08) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Wordless casting is in decline, |
(0:12:16.24) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : and the fourth crest is scorned as the Crest of Failure. |
(0:12:18.35) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That's the status quo in this day and age! |
(0:12:21.47) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Oh... |
(0:12:35.50) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I might have overdone it. |
(0:12:37.44) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It fits perfectly. |
(0:12:44.99) |
Alma Lepucius : Hey, Matty! |
(0:12:49.82) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : She looks beautiful in her uniform, too! |
(0:12:59.38) |
Alma Lepucius : What's up, you two? |
(0:13:04.95) |
Lurie Abendroth : Oh, I just— |
(0:13:06.56) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Uh, we'd better hurry if we want to make the opening ceremony! |
(0:13:08.43) |
EXTRA : The headmaster will now say a few words. |
(0:13:13.42) |
Edwart : I'm Eduard, the headmaster here. |
(0:13:18.23) |
Edwart : I despise long speeches. |
(0:13:21.11) |
Alma Lepucius : He's the headmaster? |
(0:13:23.51) |
Edwart : Here at my Second Academy, ability is everything! |
(0:13:27.21) |
Edwart : We don't care about lineage or crest the way First Academy does! |
(0:13:30.43) |
Edwart : Work on those skills, rookies! |
(0:13:35.26) |
Edwart : That is all! |
(0:13:38.71) |
Lurie Abendroth : That certainly was short! |
(0:13:40.03) |
Edwart : I almost forgot... |
(0:13:43.60) |
Edwart : Matthias Hildesheimer. |
(0:13:45.25) |
Edwart : Drop by my office when this is over. |
(0:13:47.63) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Why would the headmaster be calling for me? |
(0:13:53.76) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Because I destroyed the grounds during the exam? |
(0:13:56.05) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Is he going to expel me on my first day?! |
(0:13:58.21) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : But I did use a spell to repair the damage... |
(0:14:00.47) |
Edwart : Come in already, Matthias. |
(0:14:02.75) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Yes, sir. |
(0:14:08.19) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I knew it... He's— |
(0:14:13.79) |
Edwart : Matthias Hildesheimer. |
(0:14:16.72) |
Edwart : You defeated the Captain of the Knights' Order during your swordsmanship exam, |
(0:14:19.21) |
Edwart : and effortlessly used wordless spells during your casting exam. |
(0:14:21.96) |
Edwart : Castor being your father explains it somewhat, |
(0:14:26.39) |
Edwart : but I'm sure there's a deeper reason why someone your age is so powerful. |
(0:14:28.80) |
Edwart : I won't pry as to why that is. |
(0:14:33.65) |
Edwart : But I do want to ask for your aid. |
(0:14:35.88) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : My... aid? |
(0:14:38.64) |
Edwart : Yes. |
(0:14:40.24) |
Edwart : You saw the other students cast incanted spells, didn't you? |
(0:14:41.29) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Yes... |
(0:14:45.02) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Why do they use such an inefficient technique? |
(0:14:45.82) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Wouldn't wordless spells be better? |
(0:14:48.13) |
Edwart : "Inefficient," eh? |
(0:14:51.62) |
Edwart : Unfortunately, Matthias, |
(0:14:53.88) |
Edwart : wordless spells are a lost casting style. |
(0:14:55.72) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : As I suspected... |
(0:15:00.62) |
Edwart : I don't know that a single other person in this kingdom can still use them. |
(0:15:01.92) |
Edwart : I've been hoping to revive wordless spell techniques here at Second Academy |
(0:15:06.54) |
Edwart : and teach them to the students... |
(0:15:11.76) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That sounds like a great idea! |
(0:15:14.89) |
Edwart : But there's one thing stopping me! |
(0:15:16.44) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : There is? |
(0:15:18.37) |
Edwart : Yes. |
(0:15:19.25) |
Edwart : Our sister academy here in the capital, |
(0:15:20.30) |
Edwart : the First Royal Academy. |
(0:15:22.86) |
Edwart : The nobility endorses First Academy's teachings, |
(0:15:26.03) |
Edwart : which have a proven track record. |
(0:15:28.36) |
Edwart : We've had no choice but to follow their curriculum. |
(0:15:30.15) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : What kind of track record? |
(0:15:35.34) |
EXTRA : First Academy's published research. |
(0:15:37.33) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : This is their "track record"? |
(0:15:42.31) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : But it talks only about incanted spells... |
(0:15:44.00) |
Edwart : Incanted spells are the only form of casting accepted in academia. |
(0:15:46.82) |
Edwart : Wordless spells are rejected. |
(0:15:51.30) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : How do we get them accepted? |
(0:15:54.26) |
Edwart : We'll have to prove the power of wordless casting |
(0:15:55.80) |
Edwart : at the next inter-school competition. |
(0:15:59.79) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : And that's the "aid" you're asking me for? |
(0:16:03.69) |
Edwart : Yes. |
(0:16:07.48) |
Edwart : I want you to instruct us in wordless casting! |
(0:16:08.34) |
Edwart : Matthias. |
(0:16:14.38) |
Edwart : Can I count on you? |
(0:16:16.05) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Very well. |
(0:16:21.84) |
EXTRA : We will now begin the class. |
(0:16:25.83) |
EXTRA : Today, we'll be learning wordless spells! |
(0:16:28.14) |
EXTRA : "Wordless spells"?! |
(0:16:31.00) |
EXTRA : Wordless... |
(0:16:32.09) |
EXTRA : I didn't know there was such a thing. |
(0:16:32.46) |
EXTRA : Never heard of it... |
(0:16:33.58) |
EXTRA : Your doubts are understandable. |
(0:16:34.71) |
EXTRA : That's why we have a special guest instructor. |
(0:16:36.61) |
EXTRA : He'll be teaching you how they work. |
(0:16:39.45) |
EXTRA : Isn't he the one who passed the entrance exams at the top of the class? |
(0:16:42.11) |
Alma Lepucius : Yes, that's our Matty! |
(0:16:45.75) |
Lurie Abendroth : You can't take credit for him, Alma. |
(0:16:47.76) |
EXTRA : Matthias, could you demonstrate how wordless casting works? |
(0:16:50.04) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Very well. |
(0:16:55.00) |
EXTRA : Was that wordless casting? |
(0:17:04.40) |
EXTRA : Yeah, I didn't hear an incantation. |
(0:17:06.31) |
EXTRA : He's a Crest of Failure, right? |
(0:17:08.70) |
EXTRA : You don't think he's really a demon, do you? |
(0:17:10.52) |
EXTRA : Matthias is not the only one who can use wordless spells! |
(0:17:12.67) |
EXTRA : Mr. Gaizal? |
(0:17:16.77) |
Gaizal : Right! |
(0:17:17.83) |
Gaizal : I'm not particularly good at casting myself, |
(0:17:23.44) |
Gaizal : but Matthias's teachings have gotten me this far in just one day! |
(0:17:25.90) |
EXTRA : Well, let's get to it! |
(0:17:30.69) |
EXTRA : Right! |
(0:17:33.12) |
Alma Lepucius : Matty, I can do it now, too! |
(0:17:34.52) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : You can? |
(0:17:36.86) |
Alma Lepucius : Yeah, let me show you! |
(0:17:38.18) |
Alma Lepucius : How do you like my casting? |
(0:17:44.42) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : You don't have to imitate the way he grunts, too... |
(0:17:46.34) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : How is it going, Lurie? |
(0:17:50.32) |
Lurie Abendroth : I seem to have the feel for it, |
(0:17:52.62) |
Lurie Abendroth : but I can't shake my incanted casting habits... |
(0:17:55.42) |
Lurie Abendroth : I may have drained the last of my magic! |
(0:17:59.58) |
Lurie Abendroth : They're all doing so well. |
(0:18:03.38) |
Lurie Abendroth : When I see how impressive wordless spells are, |
(0:18:05.71) |
Lurie Abendroth : I'm forced to wonder why we ever stopped using them. |
(0:18:07.74) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : She's right. |
(0:18:12.57) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Why has wordless casting gone into decline? |
(0:18:14.30) |
Lurie Abendroth : Matty? |
(0:18:17.88) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Oh, I know. |
(0:18:19.68) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Hold out your hand, would you? |
(0:18:20.80) |
Lurie Abendroth : All right... |
(0:18:22.56) |
Lurie Abendroth : M-Matty?! |
(0:18:26.36) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : W-Well, I have to do this to transfer my magic to you! |
(0:18:27.89) |
Lurie Abendroth : Y-You can transfer magic?! |
(0:18:32.90) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Yes. |
(0:18:35.50) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I'm using a spell that attunes my magic to a target. |
(0:18:36.46) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It's typically used for enchantments, of course. |
(0:18:39.63) |
Lurie Abendroth : Enchantments... |
(0:18:43.50) |
Lurie Abendroth : I did it! |
(0:18:46.60) |
Lurie Abendroth : I finally did it, Matty! |
(0:18:47.86) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That's the way! |
(0:18:49.78) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : And so I taught wordless casting to all the students. |
(0:18:51.31) |
EXTRA : Let's show 'em what Second Academy can do! |
(0:18:55.85) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : A month passed... |
(0:18:56.12) |
Alma Lepucius : It's finally time! |
(0:18:58.40) |
Lurie Abendroth : I hope there are no magical chosen ones this year... |
(0:18:59.71) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : "Magical chosen ones"? |
(0:19:03.21) |
Lurie Abendroth : That's what they call leaders at First Academy |
(0:19:05.00) |
Lurie Abendroth : with extremely strong casting ability. |
(0:19:07.77) |
Lurie Abendroth : Any year it seems Second Academy might win, |
(0:19:09.27) |
Lurie Abendroth : one of these "magical chosen ones" appears. |
(0:19:11.95) |
Alma Lepucius : I believe the last Captain of the Mages' Order was one of them! |
(0:19:14.87) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It seems there is one here... |
(0:19:19.29) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : With roughly ten times my own magic power. |
(0:19:21.84) |
Lurie Abendroth : Ten times your power, Matty? |
(0:19:24.80) |
Alma Lepucius : That's demon-level power! |
(0:19:27.04) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Demon... |
(0:19:29.62) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Demons and humans are natural enemies, aren't they? |
(0:19:31.19) |
Lurie Abendroth : They certainly are! |
(0:19:34.74) |
Lurie Abendroth : Demons are the greatest threat to humanity there is! |
(0:19:36.11) |
Alma Lepucius : Even the court magicians working together probably couldn't beat one. |
(0:19:39.08) |
Lurie Abendroth : But why would you ask that? |
(0:19:43.20) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Oh, just curious... |
(0:19:45.30) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Demons, eh? |
(0:19:49.32) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : So they've survived into this era... |
(0:19:51.68) |
Devilis : Well, looky here! A Crest of Failure! |
(0:19:54.62) |
EXTRA : A Crest of Failure, all by his lonesome! |
(0:19:59.47) |
EXTRA : Hey, no buddies with you? |
(0:20:01.93) |
EXTRA : Did they all run away scared? |
(0:20:04.37) |
EXTRA : Hey, Crest of Failure! |
(0:20:07.05) |
EXTRA : Cower before the might of Devilis, magical chosen one! |
(0:20:08.61) |
EXTRA : Headmaster, I believe Second Academy has given up on victory entirely. |
(0:20:11.48) |
Feikus : That'll be sixty-five wins in a row for us. |
(0:20:16.06) |
EXTRA : Please, Matthias! |
(0:20:18.70) |
Devilis : What, no witty rejoinder? |
(0:20:21.57) |
Devilis : Has my chosen one Crest of Glory frightened you into submission? |
(0:20:24.32) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I knew it... |
(0:20:29.43) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : He's not human at all. |
(0:20:30.79) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : He's a demon! |
(0:20:32.90) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : He's just using a disguise spell to hide his true form. |
(0:20:34.50) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : He even has a fake crest to let him walk among humans. |
(0:20:38.25) |
EXTRA : The 65th Inter-Academy Competition will now commence! |
(0:20:42.38) |
EXTRA : Begin! |
(0:20:47.84) |
EXTRA : Magic of flame that dwells within me— |
(0:20:48.85) |
EXTRA : L-Leisis and Giaas are both out! |
(0:20:58.47) |
Devilis : Brat! |
(0:21:02.97) |
Devilis : Magic of flame that dwells— |
(0:21:04.92) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Got him. |
(0:21:06.03) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : He activated the spell before he started his chant! |
(0:21:07.13) |
EXTRA : What? Did he just cast before he— |
(0:21:09.95) |
EXTRA : Get him, Devilis! |
(0:21:10.60) |
EXTRA : He did the same with his guard spell... |
(0:21:13.21) |
EXTRA : What in the world... |
(0:21:15.23) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : In other words, he's just been pretending to chant. |
(0:21:16.62) |
Devilis : ...arrow! |
(0:21:20.34) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : The demon's head is its weak point! |
(0:21:21.30) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Forget your incantation again? |
(0:21:25.14) |
Devilis : Come, flame! |
(0:21:28.06) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : That proves it. |
(0:21:29.55) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : A spell-casting demon, pretending to use incantations... |
(0:21:31.12) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : The demons are the ones that brought wordless casting into decline! |
(0:21:34.94) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : The demons want humans' spells as weak as possible. |
(0:21:40.24) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : They must have infiltrated First Academy long ago |
(0:21:44.13) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : and arranged to have the fourth crest declared the Crest of Failure! |
(0:21:47.22) |
Devilis : Come, flame! |
(0:21:55.27) |
Devilis : How? |
(0:21:57.53) |
Devilis : How can you be so strong?! |
(0:21:58.46) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Maybe you're just lousy at fighting! |
(0:22:00.29) |
Lurie Abendroth : What's going on? |
(0:22:09.11) |
Devilis : D-Did you just use a Spell Shatter? |
(0:22:12.82) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Yes. |
(0:22:16.19) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : And I tacked on a Magic Veil, so you wouldn't notice. |
(0:22:17.17) |
EXTRA : Hey, is that— |
(0:22:22.08) |
EXTRA : Is Devilis... |
(0:22:24.36) |
EXTRA : What? What's going on? |
(0:22:26.01) |
EXTRA : Does that mean... |
(0:22:26.82) |
Feikus : A-Are you telling me... Devilis is a demon?! |
(0:22:27.95) |
Edwart : Contact the palace! |
(0:22:31.51) |
Edwart : Evacuate the students at once! |
(0:22:32.95) |
EXTRA : H-Help! |
(0:22:34.66) |
EXTRA : Calm down! |
(0:22:35.38) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Well, what's your next move? |
(0:22:35.99) |
Devilis : Damn you! |
(0:22:38.96) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : A retreating demon will use a Full Flight spell... |
(0:22:44.81) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It will take him about 1.5 seconds from spreading his wings to takeoff. |
(0:22:47.85) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : 0.8 seconds for my enchantment... |
(0:22:51.93) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : 0.7 seconds remain. |
(0:22:53.76) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Easily done! |
(0:22:55.65) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Now it's over. |
(0:22:58.76) |
Edwart : Did he defeat that demon... all by himself? |
(0:23:03.86) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I can't believe there are demons infiltrating the academy. |
(0:23:07.94) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : I thought I drove them to the brink of destruction |
(0:23:12.62) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : in my old life as Gaius the Sage... |
(0:23:15.55) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : It seems there are serious problems in this day and age. |
(0:23:19.16) |
Lurie Abendroth : Pop quiz, Alma! |
(0:23:25.89) |
Lurie Abendroth : What's the best crest for enchantment? |
(0:23:26.95) |
Alma Lepucius : Crest of Glory! |
(0:23:28.52) |
Lurie Abendroth : And for power? |
(0:23:29.63) |
Alma Lepucius : Crest of Standard! |
(0:23:30.63) |
Lurie Abendroth : Now, Matty, say all the crests three times fast! |
(0:23:31.23) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Eh?! |
(0:23:33.86) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Crest of Glory, Crest of Standard, Crest of Lesser, Crest of Failure! |
(0:23:34.51) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Crest of Glory, Crest of Standard, Crest of Lesser, Crest of Failure! |
(0:23:36.32) |
Matthias Hildesheimer : Crest of Glory, Crest of Standard, Crest of Lesser... argh! |
(0:23:38.24) |
