01x24 - Black and a Mask

Post by bunniefuu »

Unforgivable.

Unforgivable!

That demon!

I'll never forgive it!

Come forth.

Come forth! I beg you!

You are the one who summoned me,
despite not knowing your place?

I don't care if you are a demon,

as long as you can realize my wish!

I'll give you my soul,

so please!

k*ll him!

k*ll them!

Very well.

I'll k*ll some time
and listen to this request of yours.

Thank you.

As a reward...

The contract is sealed.

Your emotions are exquisite.

Which is why
I'll be doing a big favor for you.

In reality,

the reward you present can only last me
for three days at most.

As for the remainder...

Well, I'll make do with your preys.

It's been a while
since I'm back to the real world.

Let's have some fun, shall we?

The Filtwood Kingdom.

Receiving an urgent request
from this country facing the Jura Forest,

Shizu came to visit it.

The request was to subdue a demon
that was revived.

Welcome to the Filtwood Kingdom!

It's truly an honor.

I can't believe that I'd be able to meet
the renowned Conqueror of Flames!

Please, this way.

I will guide you to the banquet hall.

Shizue Izawa.

That's the Conqueror of the Flames!

How reassuring!

There are so many people gathering here.

Hey, isn't this Shizu?

It's been a while, Cougar.

I see that
you've accepted this request, too.

It's a request from the kingdom,
after all.

You're serious as ever, man!

You could have just made up any excuses
to reject them!

You may say that, but you're here too.

Well, I'm here because of the rewards.

But I'm already regretting it now.

It appears that more than ten skilled
warriors have d*ed in this mission.

I see.

With the appearance of the Hero,

it gives us hope to succeed!

You're exaggerating!

It's the minister.

All adventurers,

I have bad news for all of you.

Our Heroes, the two Silver Wings,
have passed on.

-What?
-Those two?

Are you serious?

It is said that their bodies were
all devoured, with no traces left behind.

The request this time
is to subjugate a revived demon.

Its existence has been recorded
in history years ago.

Defeated by the hero, Orthos?

However, according to the records,

it is only known that the demon
was sealed by the champion, Orthos.

The method of sealing was not recorded.

This is precisely why we seek
the strength of everyone present here.

We don't have enough information
on the enemy!

Are you just telling us to die?

The Silver Wings?

They are the heroes blessed
with two names!

The fact that they d*ed means that

we stand no chance,
no matter how many lives we may have!

My thoughts exactly.

I'm sorry, but I'm washing my hands off
this dangerous mission!

Please wait!

In order to defeat the demon,

we truly require
the assistance of everyone here!

Shut up!

Oh, man.

Please, calm down!

In truth, we have ascertained
what the demon's intentions are!

What do you mean?

In the hall situated
underground of the castle,

there is a corpse that was laid to rest.

That corpse is the demon's physical body.

To retrieve the corpse
and achieve complete revival

is what the demon is aiming for.

The demon's...

Corpse...

Isn't this the renowned Miss Shizue Izawa?

Please, raise any questions you may have!

If it is capable of driving the kingdom
to the brink of ruin

and is even able to defeat
the two Silver Wings,

it is likely that
it may be a high-ranked Arch Demon.

On that note, I have a question.

Does that demon have a name?

By having a name,

demons will gain immense power.

This is common knowledge
among skilled adventurers.

No.

There are no records
of the demon having a name.

If it doesn't have a name,

it should not be an Arch Demon.

But if that's the case,

it's hard to imagine that
the Silver Wings were defeated by it.

So you intend to gather us here

and wait for the demon, right?

Exactly.

Now that the Silver Wings
have been defeated,

we have no choice
but to bet on this strategy!

He says that,

but it appears
as if they're treating us as enemies.

Screw you!

I have no obligations
to comply with this kingdom!

I'll be leaving!

He struck him down!

What are you doing?

Hey! What are you thinking--

Shut up!

Take a look at him before cursing us!

What the hell is that?

How frightening.

A lesser demon.

See that?

We isolated everyone here

because there may be other demons
hidden among you!

You are requested to listen
and cooperate with us.

If you try anything funny,

be prepared that we'll deem you demons
and strike you down!

Things are turning into a mess.

This is bad.

Everyone's getting into a panic!

I can't believe
that they would possess humans.

Even you and I
are not an exception either.

I guess.

Do they intend to let us figure out
who are the demons all by ourselves?

What's with this dude?

No idea. I haven't seen him before.

-Shizu.
-Yes.

He appears to be rather skilled.

He may be a wizard of sorts,

but he shows no weakness.

I can't believe it.

I couldn't even feel his presence at all!

By making us believe
that there may be demons among us,

you are planning to stop us
from cooperating with each other, right?

You...

What are you trying to imply?

Well, you see,

it seems like the request could be
completed faster than I expected,

so I couldn't help but laugh.

Captain of the knights?

You said that

we'll be deemed demons and struck down
if we try anything funny, right?

Well then, what shall I do?

I have no intention of complying
with your orders,

and I do not plan to join in this charade.

A charade, you say?

Yes.

You were the one who summoned
the lesser demons, right?

You...

Do you intend to mock us?

You may be trying to put on a show,

but that is nothing more than poor acting.

Do you intend to defy
the orders of the kingdom?

No.

I completely agree
since it saves me the time and effort.

It was a request to subdue
the revived demon,

but there was no condition stating

that we are not allowed
to k*ll individuals that are not demons.

It seems to align
with the kingdom's wishes as well.

This leads me to conclude
that I will not be the only one faulted.

What do you mean by that...

You.

Do you intend to k*ll everyone here

to seek out the demon?

Correct.

I am Shizu.

Who are you?

Please, call me Black.

It is a wordplay on the name given
by an old acquaintance of mine.

Black.

I cannot forgive your actions.

Well then, I'll start
by eliminating you first.

Fire will not work on me.

I see.

That's a high-ranked spirit.

And it has even unified with you.

It may be a little troublesome,
but it's something I can deal with.

Allow me to have some fun with you.

Do not underestimate me.

Amazing!

This is the power of the hero,
the one standing on the pinnacle!

Shizu.

Just what in the world are you?

Why would someone
who is about to die bother with that?

Even if you knew about it,
you would just be in despair!

When you manage to find out, that is!

In the first place,

my identity does not concern you.

That is true.

However, it is too dangerous
to leave you as it is!

I'm sorry,

but I'll be using my full power!

Interesting!

Your complacency
is what will cost your life!

I'll end everything with this!

Inferno Flame!

Are you kidding?

Splendid.

I can't believe that a mere human

could master Ifrit's power to such extent.

It's been a while
since I felt that I'm fighting.

I can't believe that you're a demon.

He escaped unscathed from those flames?

No. Allow me to correct you.

I wasn't unscathed,
and I felt a bit of pain.

That is why fighting is fun.

Well then, allow me to end this now.

What?

Impossible!

That mask...

That feeling of time being suppressed...

Don't tell me that's Infinity?

Did she just use Infinity?

That mask,

it must have allowed you
to travel in time.

I can't believe that a mere human
could use something like that.

This is truly intriguing!

Very well.

We will continue this another day.

-Awesome!
-As expected of the Conqueror of Flames!

You did it!

We have absolutely no intention
of harming every adventurer here.

It is sufficient as long as
the demon's identity has been revealed.

It's a relief that he retreated.

That power...

When we were fighting,
he wasn't using his full strength.

Also...

Well, you see,

it seems like the request could be
completed faster than I expected.

A request?

I can't believe that someone could control
a very powerful demon.

It's unbelievable.

I've once heard from the Demon Lord Leon

about a group of demons
known as the Progenitors.

These demons are considered heretic
and extremely hard to deal with.

Instead of names, they are called
by their characteristic colors.

The Red Progenitor is called Rouge,

the White Progenitor is Blanc,

and the Black Progenitor is Noir.

Black.

Noir.

It can't be, right?

As if something that great could be here.

You may enter.

Please pardon me.

His Majesty, the King,
would like to speak with you.

Would you please come with me?

I understand.

The fight just now was truly magnificent!

The demon was afraid of Lord Shizue.

I survived because I was lucky.

That demon was stronger than me.

My, how humble!

It is to our anguish that it escaped,

but if Lord Shizue is here,
we have nothing to fear!

Underground?

It's where the demon's corpse is, right?

That knight,

I didn't see him at the banquet hall.

So why...

How did he know
about the fight with the demon?

The minister

and the king?

You did well to come here, Lord Shizu.

To sacrifice yourself
for the sake of this kingdom,

I thank you, as the king of the nation.

What is the meaning of this?

You're rather slow, aren't you?

You must be extremely tired
after the battle with the demon.

That is why we are offering you
as a sacrifice now while we can.

I see.

So you were in cahoots with the demon.

Precisely.

My name is Orthos.

Orthos, the champion renowned to all
as a hero.

I get it now.

The demon was never sealed
in the first place.

You're the enemy of mankind

and that demon, right?

And also, the ruler of this kingdom.

You invite renowned adventurers here,
k*ll them,

and offer them to the demons.

By doing that,

the demon gains more power.

The Filtwood Kingdom
is a nation ruled by demons,

and the king is a puppet
controlled by the demons.

I saw everything
through the eyes of the minister.

That demon was a force to reckon with,

but it was a disappointment
at the very end.

More importantly,

about that mask of yours.

It seems to be of significant value.

That is something perfect for me.

I will suck all your blood,
and devour your flesh.

And eventually,
the power you possess will belong to me.

Aren't you glad?

What a joke.

You fool!

You haven't even recovered
all your powers,

and yet, you expect to win against me?

I didn't expect to deal with a demon
without any preparations beforehand.

But I have no choice!

You still have so much power left.

Since you can leave a scratch on me,

you must be stronger
than the Silver Wings.

As I expected, you're the one...

Although, I was a little careless
and allowed them to escape.

However, I will not let you escape!

I'm sure you know that demons
are classified into different ranks.

And I am the legendary
Greater Demon General

known as the Arch Demon!

Do you understand?

As a hero crowned by humans,

the voices of the people serve
as my source of power.

That power gave me a name,

and it gave me the power to name myself!

Just like that person
who stands at the pinnacle of all.

The pinnacle?

It's something a mere human like you
do not need to know.

I can't believe that someone known
as a hero could be this powerless!

What's wrong?

Aren't you going to unify with Ifrit?

It'll be much easier on you
if you could do that.

My magical powers are all used up,

but I still have Ifrit's powers!

If I let it unleash,

it should be able to even defeat
an Arch Demon!

I'm troubled.

I can't believe that someone
who inflicted pain on me

would have so much trouble
with small fries like these.

You...

I am someone who keeps my promise.

That's...

Impossible!

Our knights are known
for their unparalleled strength!

They were only inhibited by lesser demons,

and you say they have
unparalleled strength?

Your standard of strength is so low,
it makes me laugh.

You are certainly strong,

but you are no match for us!

After we deal with
the Conqueror of Flames, you will be next!

Brace yourself and wait--

Impossible.

Even with the protection
of a Greater Demon...

Stop your whining, trash.

I didn't think that
he actually escaped just now,

but I didn't expect him to be hunting
demons that were disguised as humans.

Just by defeating my puppets,

you think that you can win against me,
an Arch Demon?

A vulgar demon like you could never--

You called me vulgar?

As a brethren of Rouge,
you are too complacent.

That is why you can't even ascertain
the strength of your opponent.

Impossible...

You are...

Your Lordship...

I am ashamed to know
that you are a demon, just like me.

I cannot forgive your existence.

I will destroy your very soul,

so that you will never be able
to revive again.

No...

Stop!

All the demons dwelling
in the Filtwood Kingdom were purged.

The death of the king and the minister

were the work of a demon known as Black,

and Black was defeated by Shizue.

That was how it is recorded in history.

Yes.

If you go along with my story,

I shall spare your life.

So, just who was that person
called Black, anyway?

I think it's better not to know.

I guess you're right.

It's true that you'd be better off
not knowing some things in life.

Well then, I'll be off now!

Take care, Shizu!

Yes. Let's meet somewhere again.

Now then...

That demon...

Someone will deal
with him someday, I guess.

With that, time passes.

I can't believe that the mask broke.

So it is true.

That slime,

he truly is...

And thus, in secrecy,

and as one-sided as it was,

Rimuru and Black
had their first fateful encounter.

Soon after,
Black would be summoned by Rimuru,

and eventually receive the name...

Diablo.
