02x12 - Reason to Fight

Post by bunniefuu »

Naofumi: Before I was summoned to another world,

Naofumi: I was an ordinary otaku who dabbled in a little bit of everything.

Kyo: The real world is a sh*thole. I don't belong here.

Kyo: And my games were the one thing that helped me forget that.

Naofumi: I spent most of my time selling items to relax,

Naofumi: but sometimes I'd lead clans doing high-difficulty content.

Kyo: I was a genius!

Kyo: I could do anything!

Kyo: My experiments and inventions made me famous throughout the whole country!

Naofumi: Online games were just one of many things I enjoyed as an otaku.

Sign: Diedie i'll k*ll you all die

Sign: Name: Nameless Vagrant

Sign: somebody ban this loser

Sign: Name: Nameless Vagrant

Kyo: Games were all I had.

Kyo: My life in those games was my reality!

Sign: I hacked your IP

Naofumi: My life was an ordinary one, and I thought it would last forever.

Kyo: I wanted to wake up from this nightmare.

Naofumi: So what am I doing here?

Naofumi: I'm here in a totally new world, and I...

Naofumi: I'm just doing what they told me to!

Kyo: I'm not wasting my time with that crap!

Kyo: This is the second life I wanted!

Kyo: So I'm gonna seize it for all its worth!

Kyo: Different worlds, ruled by different laws.

Kyo: Shatter their different barriers and manifest its power here!

Kyo: The Wave of Calamity, Dimension Wave!

Sign: The Rising of the Shield Hero

Raphtalia: Naofumi-san, this is...

Sign: Episode Reason to Fight

Naofumi: Yes! That's a Wave!

Raphtalia: Then the others...

Naofumi: They were sent to the Wave because they're this world's Cardinal Heroes and their followers.

Raphtalia: No...

Naofumi: There was still time!

Naofumi: Why?

Filo: Look, Master!

Ethnobalt: Get in, everyone!

Naofumi: Where are the others?

Ethnobalt: They stayed to help with the Waves.

Yomogi: It's all Kyo's doing...

Yomogi: He used the power he stole from the Spirit Tortoise to create a Wave!

Naofumi: You knew, and you still helped him?

Raphtalia: Naofumi-sama!

Yomogi: But I didn't think he'd do this!

Yomogi: I thought he'd use the Spirit Tortoise's power to protect this world from the Waves!

Naofumi: So, what are you even doing here?

Yomogi: Kizuna told me...

Yomogi: they'd handle the Waves.

Yomogi: And that I should help you instead.

Yomogi: Kizuna believed in me, even though I'm a fool.

Yomogi: For her sake, I will throw aside my pride and bring the Shield Hero to Kyo!

Ethnobalt: As the Wielder of the Boat Vassal w*apon, I will bring you to Kyo.

Naofumi: All right.

Naofumi: Take me to where that bastard's waiting!

Kizuna: Bait Lure!

Glass: Blank-Stance Rondo: Moon Break!

Kizuna: Thanks, Glass!

Glass: It was nothing...

L'Arc: They just keep coming!

L'Arc: How do we stop this?

Glass: We may need to defeat Kyo, the one who summoned it!

Kizuna: Naofumi...

Naofumi: This is it?

Yomogi: Kyo's lab.

Naofumi: Thank you, Ethnobalt!

Naofumi: We'll handle the rest!

Naofumi: The others have seen the Waves, but Kizuna hasn't.

Naofumi: She'll feel a lot better with you there.

Ethnobalt: All right.

Ethnobalt: Stay safe, everyone!

Rishia: You too, Ethnobalt!

Naofumi: Let's go!

Naofumi: These are all used in Kyo's experiments, huh?

Yomogi: Yes, that's right.

Girl B: Vengeance... Vengeance for Kazuki-sama!

Raphtalia: These are...

Yomogi: Chimeras?

Yomogi: A fusion of a human and a Byakko copy?

Yomogi: Kyo!

Rishia: That's...

Rishia: The same sword Yomogi-san was using?

Girl B: We'll defeat you...

Girl B: If we defeat you, Kazuki-sama will come back!

Girl B: Kyo promised us!

Naofumi: So he talked them into being sacrificial pawns?

Naofumi: Like he did with you?

Yomogi: Stop...

Yomogi: That won't bring your master back!

Raphtalia: I'm sorry, but...

Raphtalia: We don't have time to waste here!

Girl B: It only took an instant?

Raphtalia: I think it's because of the jewel that Therese-san gave me!

Naofumi: It gives you the same power as Filo's High Quick?

Filo: I'm fast, too!

Girl B: Kazuki-sama...

Girl B: For Kazuki-sama...

Naofumi: No!

Naofumi: Air Strike Shield!

Naofumi: Second Shield!

Naofumi: Dritte Shield!

Naofumi: Shield Prison!

Naofumi: Meteor Shield!

Naofumi: Are you guys okay?

Raphtalia: Yes!

Rishia: I think so...

Filo: It's so dusty!

Kyo: Well, so much for this lab!

Kyo: But you still screwed it up, like everybody else.

Kyo: You're all useless.

Yomogi: Kyo!

Kyo: Hey there, Shield Shithead!

Kyo: I'm not happy at all to see you again.

Naofumi: Agreed.

Naofumi: But coming here was the only way to kick your ass.

Girl B: Kazuki-sama! Kazuki-sama!

Kyo: See! I brought him back!

Yomogi: That's impossible...

Naofumi: A mirror?

Yomogi: He didn't come back to life!

Yomogi: That's a homunculus Kyo made!

Yomogi: The soul that dwelled in his body during life is gone!

Yomogi: The body is empty!

Yomogi: He forced the soul of the Wielder of the Mirror Vassal w*apon into it!

Naofumi: What?

Rishia: The Wielder of the Mirror Vassal w*apon? The one who went missing?

Kyo: Spoiler warning, bitch.

Yomogi: No blood flows through his veins. His soul is a different person's.

Yomogi: That isn't the comrade they love!

Girl B: No... No!

Kyo: Well, there you go.

Kyo: Have fun dying against a dead guy, morons!

Naofumi: I won't let you get away!

Naofumi: Raphtalia!

Raphtalia: Naofumi-sama, I can handle this.

Raphtalia: I can hear the voice of the Wielder of the Mirror Vassal w*apon.

Raphtalia: He's begging to be released.

Yomogi: I get it...

Yomogi: The Vassal w*apon Wielders are resonating!

Yomogi: Go, Shield Hero!

Yomogi: And stop Kyo!

Filo: I'll help!

Naofumi: Okay!

Naofumi: Let's go, Rishia!

Rishia: Um... okay!

Filo: Wow!

Filo: I can fight like I did before!

Filo: What is that?

Yomogi: As someone who helped Kyo,

Yomogi: is it my duty to put their suffering to an end?

Raphtalia: I'll liberate you now.

Naofumi: Kyo!

Kyo: Finally!

Kyo: It's finally just the two of you!

Kyo: The green-haired moron and the Shield Shithead!

Kyo: You're the two that I need to k*ll myself!

Naofumi: So you caused that last Wave using Ost's power?

Kyo: Of course I did!

Kyo: Can't you tell?

Kyo: This is all that turtle's power!

Kyo: I used a lot of it,

Kyo: but I can just go back to your world and get more!

Kyo: Oh, but I guess the stupid turtle is dead.

Kyo: So what's the other one again? Some kind of big bird?

Naofumi: Shut up.

Kyo: I can't hear you—

Naofumi: Shut up!

Naofumi: I'm sick of you.

Naofumi: Sick of hearing your voice, sick of seeing that smirk on your face...

Rishia: Naofumi-san?

Naofumi: Who the hell do you think you are?

Naofumi: Coming into our world and treating it like it's your toy!

Kyo: Right now, you're the ones in my world.

Kyo: So it's "our world" now?

Kyo: Guess you really are the Shield Hero now!

Kyo: Yes! That's it!

Kyo: That face is what I wanted to see!

Kyo: I loved what I saw when I took the demi-human girl from you!

Kyo: Shame things with the bird girl didn't work out!

Kyo: She was supposed to be fried chicken by the time you found her!

Kyo: And all of that's what you get for playing the hero and ruining my plan!

Rishia: Naofumi-san?

Kyo: How do you feel right now?

Kyo: Angry? Pissed off?

Kyo: Ready to rip me in half?

Kyo: I bet you do, don't you?

Kyo: Don't you? Don't you?!

Naofumi: Yeah, that's right!

Naofumi: You messed with my friends!

Naofumi: Now shut up, so I can k*ll you!

Kyo: Just try it!

Rishia: Naofumi-san! You can't use that!

Naofumi: Foolish sinner, I sentence you to castyour screams unto the heavens!

Naofumi: Within the dragon's jaws born from my flesh,

Naofumi: become an offering to the gods as you howl!

Rishia: Naofumi-san!

Dragon: So you chose to use it.

Dragon: You chose to call me, Iwatani Naofumi!

Dragon: Now I will become one with you!

Kyo: Haha! Look at this loser!

Sign: {\pos(,)\fad(,)}Wrath Shield

Kyo: He got so mad he let his shield take him over!

Kyo: "Friends"? You expect me to believe that bullshit?

Kyo: You control them with the sl*ve Crest and Monster Crest.

Kyo: If they really were your "friends," you wouldn't need to enslave them!

Rishia: No!

Rishia: Naofumi-san is...

Kyo: The fact that you helped your slaves get a bit stronger doesn't change a thing, you idiot!

Rishia: Naofumi-san, stay in control!

Naofumi: So what?

Rishia: Naofumi-san?

doublespeak,Naofumi: Both Raphtalia and Filo were useless at first!

doublespeak,Naofumi: But now they're useful!

doublespeak,Naofumi: That's why I keep them around!

doublespeak,Naofumi: What's wrong with that?

doublespeak,Naofumi: But what the hell are you?

doublespeak,Naofumi: You disgusting slut!

doublespeak,Naofumi: You pissed me off just as much as Kyo!

doublespeak,Naofumi: Why am I stuck taking care of a girl whose life goal was to get into the Bow Hero's pants?

doublespeak,Naofumi: Ugly whore!

doublespeak,Naofumi: I'll k*ll you first!

Rishia: I finally heard what you really think.

Rishia: I always wondered what you thought about me.

Rishia: I'm okay with that.

Rishia: But... Raphtalia-san and Filo-chan are different, right?

Rishia: Sure, maybe you were using them at first.

Rishia: But who could blame you?

Rishia: There were things you had to do, even if it meant making them your slaves!

Rishia: They understand that!

Rishia: And they know that it's different now!

Rishia: That you think of us as treasured friends.

Rishia: So Ost-san also...

Rishia: I don't know who you are, but get out of Naofumi-san!

Kyo: What are you doing?

Kyo: You're ruining my show!

Kyo: Forget it.

Kyo: I'll just k*ll him while he's in crazy mode.

Kyo: But of course, you'll die first!

Kyo: Again? Damn it!

Rishia: So even after all this, you're still relying on the Spirit Tortoise's power?

Rishia: You're weak!

Kyo: What... What are you?

Rishia: Naofumi-san!

Rishia: Wake up! Naofumi-san!

Kyo: You bitch!

Rishia: Naofumi-san!

Dragon: What's wrong?

Dragon: Don't let that woman's words deceive you!

Naofumi: No, you're the one trying to deceive me!

Dragon: I'm making you an offer!

Dragon: As a Cardinal Hero, it's your task to fight the Waves!

Naofumi: My task?

Dragon: And for that, you need my power!

Dragon: My power, which burns everything!

Naofumi: Burns everything...

Dragon: Yes. That's right...

Ost: I told you, didn't I, Shield Hero?

Ost: You don't need these flames.

Naofumi: Ost?

Ost: Do you intend to use those flames to k*ll my friends?

Ost: You decide what your task is.

Ost: Now stand up.

Ost: Everybody's waiting!

Naofumi: Raphtalia... Filo?

Naofumi: Rishia!

Kyo: What?

Kyo: Damn it!

Kyo: I'll burn you all to ash!

Kyo: Forbidden Tome: Revelation!

Kyo: Die!

Kyo: I bet I can keep this up longer than you can!

Raphtalia: Naofumi-sama!

Filo: Master!

Naofumi: Thanks, Raphtalia! Filo!

Rishia: Naofumi-san!

Naofumi: You too, Rishia!

Naofumi: You stopped the Wrath Shield, and my anger, from taking me over!

Naofumi: But this anger, this pain, this sorrow...

Naofumi: I have to accept it and move forward!

Kyo: The Mirror Vassal w*apon?

Naofumi: Ost was right!

Naofumi: I'll decide my task!

Naofumi: Kyo Ethnina!

Naofumi: Sorry for playing hero and ruining your plans.

Naofumi: I'm sure you had your reasons for thinking this was right...

Naofumi: So I'm not doing this for the sake of some great task or for what's right!

Naofumi: I'm doing it for myself! Of my own free will!

Naofumi: I will defeat you!

Kyo: Great!

Kyo: Enjoy your victory!

Kyo: Guys like you always end up looking like fools in the end!

Kyo: As you'll find out soon!

Naofumi: This is...

Raphtalia: Ost-san?

Yomogi: Shield Hero... and his followers!

Yomogi: Thank you... for defeating Kyo!

Kizuna: Hey! Hey!

Kizuna: I see.

Kizuna: So Kyo's dead, huh?

L'Arc: We found the missing Mirror Vassal w*apon, too.

L'Arc: We won't have to worry about the w*r for now.

Therese: Now it's time for the king to show us what he can do, huh, L'Arc?

Naofumi: Good luck with that, young master.

L'Arc: Stop calling me that, lad!

Glass: What will you do now, Naofumi?

Naofumi: I don't know.

Naofumi: I thought that I had to ride the Wave home, the same way you did.

Kizuna: But now it's gone.

Kizuna: And there's about... a month until the next one.

Kizuna: Why not relax here a little until it comes?

Naofumi: I guess I don't have a choice.

L'Arc: Sounds great!

L'Arc: Let's head back to the castle and have a banquet!

Kizuna: Sounds great!

Kizuna: Let's go fishing, too!

Kizuna: I was hoping we could—

Kizuna: Naofumi?

Sign: Mission CompleteRetrieved the Spirit Tortoise's power

Naofumi: Looks like we can go home after all.

Naofumi: There's not even a minute left.

Raphtalia: Thank you for everything!

Rishia: Um, let's meet again!

Filo: Bye!

Kizuna: Wait!

Kizuna: What about the fishing? And the banquet?

L'Arc: Don't be ridiculous, Kizuna.

Kizuna: No...

Naofumi: Well, I kind of saw it coming.

Kizuna: Naofumi, you jerk!

Kizuna: I haven't even thanked you!

Kizuna: Thank you.

Kizuna: Thank you, Naofumi!

Kizuna: As one of the Cardinal Heroes, I'll do my best here!

Naofumi: Yeah.

Kizuna: Can I come see you sometimes?

Kizuna: I mean, I don't know if I even can.

Naofumi: Yeah. You're welcome, as long as you're not coming to k*ll me.

Kizuna: Dummy... You know I wouldn't...

Naofumi: See you around, Kizuna.

Kizuna: Up until the last minute, Naofumi was...

Naofumi: After I returned home,

Naofumi: I was given a medal by the queen for defeating the Spirit Tortoise,

Naofumi: and the title of viscount.

Naofumi: I heard later that at the time the Wave appeared in Kizuna's world,

Naofumi: another appeared here.

Naofumi: While we were gone, Motoyasu, Ren, and Itsuki worked hard to defeat it.

Naofumi: Maybe they just wanted to restore their names

Naofumi: after how useless they were against the Spirit Tortoise.

Naofumi: But the Waves, the other world... there are more and more problems to deal with.

Naofumi: And then there's the Phoenix, the next Guardian Beast to awaken.

Naofumi: It's hard to stay positive with so many challenges awaiting us.

Naofumi: But I know that as long as I have my friends, I can keep this world safe.

Naofumi: At least, that's how it feels.

Naofumi: Because I'm...
