[chuckles softly]
[UCHIMURA] We really should
streamline this process, huh?
-[OLULU] Mr. Uchimura!
-Huh?
Guess who just closed the deal
with the werebear tribe?
I'll give you a hint,
it was me!
Hey, awesome!
[OLULU]
Negotiations are much simpler
when you prioritize both
parties' terms and conditions.
I learned something new.
Ah, I've been
in plenty of meetings
where people waste
a ton of time
by not taking
that into account.
[both chuckle]
Also, because you were able
to brilliantly facilitate
the alliance
with the ogre tribe,
you're going to be given
the distinguished
service award!
What's that now?
[OLULU] The award ceremony
will be held soon,
so I'll ask more
about the details
once I've had a bite to eat.
[UCHIMURA]
I've never received any praise,
and they're already
giving me an award?
And a distinguished one,
at that?
Uchimura, lunch is ready!
Have a bite!
Oh, wow,
you've got perfect timing.
-[chuckles softly]
-[UCHIMURA] What're we having?
MEAGER
Gim porridge again.
[bites]
[slurps]
[slurps]
[UCHIMURA] Hm.
Weak.
Well, they have
to water it down
to make it last longer.
[Ulmandra laughs]
[UCHIMURA]
Gim is what we always eat here.
It's a crop cultivated
in the farms
on the outskirts of the city.
Olulu, who has tons
of experience
with governing and diplomacy,
now works for me,
so I've been fortunate enough
to have extra time
- to learn about this new world.
- It's so watery!
[UCHIMURA]
This mushy gim porridge
is the Demon Army's
staple food.
I know that, but.
[sighs]
I'd love to eat meat
once in a while.
-[ULMANDRA] Okay, fine.
-Huh?
-Let's hunt!
-We're getting it ourselves?
Really?
[wings flapping]
EPISODE 3 NOW I UNDERSTAND!
ELITE GENERAL COMMUNICATION
Conveniently,
we've been asked
to help exterminate
a magical beast nearby.
Lately, it's been wreaking
havoc on this land.
Hold up, beast?
[ULMANDRA] At least five orcs
who live in the area
were devoured
by the exact same beast.
That means it's a big deal,
like an emergency!
[ULMANDRA]
Survival of the fittest.
The weak get eaten.
[gasps]
Well, normally,
the orcs would need
to handle this on their own
but this beast has grown
rather strong,
so it's best that we help.
[UCHIMURA]
The gim porridge is so thin
because there's
a food shortage here.
On top of that,
now there's beasts?
This world has a lot
of problems to overcome.
What can I do about it?
-[ULMANDRA] Found them!
-[screams]
-These are the mushrooms!
-[UCHIMURA] Mushrooms?
Can you eat them?
[ULMANDRA]
Yeah.
Apparently,
they're the same ones
the orcs were picking
when they were attacked.
They're an important
part of the orcish diet.
If we stake out this area,
the hellhog should show up.
[stomping]
-Huh?
-Huh?
- [scream]
- [roaring]
[stomps]
[UCHIMURA]
A giant boar?
[hissing]
[growling]
[shudders]
-[ULMANDRA] Back away.
-Okay.
He's doing that
to intimidate us.
Get back and I'll k*ll it!
[hellhog growls]
[screams]
[hellhog groans]
[UCHIMURA]
I see.
It appears boars of this type
have a difficult time
looking up.
That's why
she attacked it from above.
She's knows her stuff.
[growls softly]
[grunting]
[screaming]
[growls]
-[thuds]
-[UCHIMURA] This thing's worse
than a natural disaster!
-[Ulmandra grunts]
-[UCHIMURA] And Ms. Ulmandra
is incredible for dodging it
but I don't see
how she can finish it off.
She doesn't even have a weapon.
-[screams]
-[UCHIMURA] She could
scare it off
but that's not the goal here.
We're hunting!
Massive horns, sharp claws,
and powerful fangs.
Most wild animals evolved
and essentially grew
special tools
for fighting enemies.
But humans are different.
We're truly weak.
Our capacity
for k*lling is low.
That's why we made weaponry.
Swords, spears,
bows and arrows,
-[expl*si*n]
-g*ns, and bombs.
To enhance our k*lling power,
we've built the weapons
we don't naturally have.
Ms. Ulmandra must
know this as well.
I wonder why
she didn't bring a side arm?
[ULMANDRA]
I'll never k*ll it like this.
I'll start trying for real.
♪
[growls]
♪
She strengthened all the armor
that she's wearing, huh?
[ULMANDRA]
I hate using this spell
because it lasts forever
but you gotta do
what you gotta do.
You'd better be
worth the trouble.
[growls]
[footsteps approaches]
[roars]
Now!
Look at that!
I'd sure hate to
rupture your intestines
and taint your delicious meat.
[hellhog growls]
[Ulmandra grunts]
-[hellhog growls]
-Wha?
[screams]
-[grunts]
-[hellhog groans]
[blood splatters]
[shudders]
[thuds]
[sighs]
[UCHIMURA] So, that must be
the kind of magic demons have.
Okay, now we can pig out!
[UCHIMURA] She expects me
to have an appetite
after seeing all that gore?
[birds chirping]
[ORC CHIEF]
Thank you so much.
I can't believe
you defeated it by yourself.
Hm.
Glad you're pleased.
Now, I know
meat is scarce here,
so, help yourselves!
[crowd cheering]
[UCHIMURA]
What, boar,
orcs,
gross!
Here you go,
I've broken the leg meat down
-for you to cook.
-Thanks.
Wait a second, does this mean
you actually know
how to cook, too?
I'm an elite general,
so yeah, I can cook.
How about I give you a taste
of this nation's
yummiest meat dishes?
Yes, please!
All I've eaten
since coming here
is gim porridge,
so I can't wait.
How do you plan to prepare it?
[fire roars]
On an open flame.
Careful not to burn it!
[sizzling]
[explodes]
[ULMANDRA]
I present tasty charred boar!
[UCHIMURA] She wasn't kidding
about the open flame.
It's a bit more well-done
than I usually order it.
Oh, just pipe down and try it!
[gulps]
[bites]
[UCHIMURA]
What's this?
A distinct bitterness
laced with a grainy texture
has spread over my palate.
The oily meat juices
flowing out of it
taste like how I'd imagine
the finest diesel fuel does.
This is oral pollution,
an environmental crisis
in my mouth!
Don't be mean.
Well, I think
you're the mean one here,
seeing how you fed me
this strange dark matter!
Wow, you sure
forget your manners
when it comes
to the culinary arts!
[Uchimura grunts]
[Uchimura panting]
Okay calm down,
you're just having
isekai culture shock right now.
This is worse than I thought,
though.
Oh, is this a communal oven?
[ULMANDRA] Yeah,
'cause they're expensive.
Salt is a rare product, too.
Seriously?
There's no way that's enough,
but it's pricey.
It won't change the flavor
unless we add a tad more.
[gasps]
[UCHIMURA]
Excuse me,
could you let me try
my hand at that?
[ULMANDRA] What?
[MALE ORC] What?
[UCHIMURA]
I'll make sure to only use
a pinch or two of salt.
Now, if I could just find some
good edible mushrooms instead.
♪
[fire crackling]
[bubbling]
And voila!
Grilled boar skewer
served with umami boar soup!
Hm?
[bites]
-[Uchimura chuckles]
-Hold on!
It's so good!
This is quite well cooked.
My kids won't eat it
when I make it.
[UCHIMURA]
Wild boar has a gamey taste,
so you have to soak it
to remove
as much blood as you can.
It's also very greasy,
so you want to cook it
as far away from the flame
as you can to avoid
incinerating it as it roasts.
When putting meat in soup,
you can reduce gaminess
by keeping
braising times short.
[crowd gasps]
I can teach you
all of my cooking tips
-if you would like.
-You'd do that for us?
I'd love to learn this recipe.
Oh, good grief.
Don't you think
it's a bit lowly
for an elite general
to teach people how to cook?
Nah, you're wrong about that.
Why do you think they say
food is a ruler
by which you can
measure culture then?
-Is that not true?
-What?
[UCHIMURA] Cooking
is all about experience.
Soaking the meat
would've occurred to anyone
who eats it daily.
Most cooking is trial and error
and a wealthy country
is the foundation
for such experimentation.
So, what you're saying is
these people are too poor
to learn these types of things?
I mean, pretty much, yeah.
[scoffs]
I hate to admit it,
but I think you're right.
This nation is poor.
Compared to the powers
surrounding us,
we are weak and small.
These people don't have
enough food.
However,
that's exactly why you and I
must work to change it!
It's our duty to
lift them out of poverty!
-Am I wrong?
-You've never been more right!
[chuckles softly]
Honestly,
I can't believe a simple meal
inspired me so much.
You're talented.
[insects chirping]
Now that that's done,
let's get out of here.
[UCHIMURA]
What, we're traveling at night?
[fire roars]
[ULMANDRA] We have this
to brighten our path.
It should scare off
any magical beasts.
Whoa,
you demons sure are something.
True.
It's just
the natural way for us.
Only us demons can access
what's necessary to perform
powerful magic like this
"knowledge of all things."
[UCHIMURA]
I see.
The demi-humans
led by Ms. Gnome
train so hard every day
precisely because they aren't
able to use magic.
By the way,
is Ms. Sylphid a demi-human
or a demon?
She must be a demon
if she's known as
the Archmage of Storms.
From what I know,
she's never gone
to a single
Big Four meeting in person.
[UCHIMURA] She's always
the only one joining remotely?
How bold of her.
[ULMANDRA] Anyway, whatever.
Let's go.
Uh.
[UCHIMURA]
Hey, wait, Ms. Ulmandra!
It wouldn't be
an otherworldly adventure
without a little magic, huh?
But isn't it all a bit much?
-Huh?
-[UCHIMURA] You were having
a difficult time fighting
that hellhound at first.
I think it's because you didn't
have a weapon on hand
to quickly k*ll it with.
I mean, being able
to turn your body
into a weapon is cool
but even you said
you didn't like
how long it takes
for you to change back.
It'd be way more efficient
to equip yourself
with hand weapons
from the start.
Same goes with your cooking,
if you had just
used their oven,
then you wouldn't have
burned the food.
Instead of fixating on magic,
why not try some new tools?
It could be fun!
And your clothes, too.
Instead of wearing so little,
maybe you should wear
some kind of armor
that can cover you up
and protect your skin?
[roars]
-[blows]
-Huh? Wait. What?
[ULMANDRA] Uchimura,
[UCHIMURA] Yes?
I think I see
what you're trying to say,
but.
What you just said
is incredibly offensive.
Wha?
[ULMANDRA]
So, change of plans.
Stay here tonight
and come back in the morning
with an orc escort.
Ms. Ulmandra?
[ULMANDRA]
I'm disappointed.
I was just
starting to trust you.
You really are
nothing more than a human.
All this efficiency talk.
You don't even know
what being a demon means.
[gasps]
[UCHIMURA]
I screwed up big time.
[footsteps receding]
-[Ulmandra grunts]
-[UCHIMURA] What?
What did I freaking say?
No, wait, she's leaving?
I've got to go after her
and apologize.
[distant roaring]
Nuh-uh, I won't last
two seconds in the woods
if there are
scary monsters out!
Don't go, Ms. Ulmandra!
[screaming]
I'm begging you!
[DEMON LORD]
Very nice work
on defeating
that magical beast.
[Uchimura gasps]
But I couldn't help
but notice that
Ulmandra returned
late last night
and yet, you were
escorted home by orcs
in the early hours
of the morning.
[Uchimura shudders]
Did something transpire?
[UCHIMURA]
Oh, Demon Lord,
I'm afraid I'm
I'm not cut out
to be an elite general!
[DEMON LORD]
I think I understand
what's going on here.
[UCHIMURA] I'm terribly sorry,
Your Majesty!
I have no right
to be an elite general
after tarnishing
your company's image!
You might as well fire me now!
[DEMON LORD]
Don't be imprudent.
-[chokes]
-Go clear up
Ulmandra's confusion
and reconcile with her,
Uchimura.
That is a direct order
from the top.
[UCHIMURA] Uh.
A task from the Demon Lord?
I understand, sir.
[DEMON LORD] This may seem like
petty workplace drama
but it's actually
the perfect opportunity
for you to learn more
about this world
and its rich culture.
[MALE VILLAGER 1]
What's wrong with that guy?
[FEMALE VILLAGER 1] Yikes.
[MALE VILLAGER 2] Look at him.
[UCHIMURA]
I don't understand.
What was Ms. Ulmandra
so angry about?
All this efficiency talk.
You don't even know
what being a demon means.
What does it mean, though?
There are two species here.
Demons and demi-humans.
Before coming here,
I thought that demons were
smart and refined
and that demi-humans,
like those orcs,
were wild and brawny, but.
Those are demi-humans.
That's a Demon.
Demi-human.
Demons?
It's the opposite
in this world.
If Ms. Ulmandra is an example,
demons like to show more skin
and are far more brazen.
But why?
Style reflects the culture
and philosophy,
the era, and even the religious
views of the times.
So why wear next to nothing?
Only us demons can access
what's necessary
to perform
powerful magic like this.
"Knowledge of all things."
Is it a hard and fast rule?
Are all non-demons
incapable of using magic?
Forget all you know!
-[unzips]
-There's bound to be a book
containing the facts on
how magic works in this world!
Found it.
"For demons,
a beautifully trained body
is a source of pride."
"This is because a strong body
is paramount to cast spells
and to increase
one's personal power."
So the stronger they get,
the more magic power they have.
That's how it works
in this world.
Demons prance around
in skimpy clothes
to show off
their hard work ethic
and their commitment
to their passion.
In other words, I..
[UCHIMURA]
Instead of wearing so little
maybe you should
wear some kind of armor
that can cover you up
and protect your skin?
Oh no, I rejected
Ms. Ulmandra herself.
[screams]
Of course she's mad!
I keep forgetting
I'm in culture shock!
Didn't I learn anything
from my time with Mr. Tarius?
My answer for you is nay!
Thank you, demon lord.
I've learned even more
about this world
thanks to your task but..
I have no idea how to make up
with Ms. Ulmandra!
[crying]
What do I do?
[Olulu grunts]
[sighs]
That's it for the firewood.
What now?
[gasps]
[screams]
Who's there?
A wicked god?
That's not it.
-[sighs]
-Ms. Ulmandra?
Uchimura hates me
and I don't know
what I'm supposed to do!
Huh, why don't you tell me
what happened?
[Ulmandra crying]
[ULMANDRA] He didn't say
I looked attractive.
I don't understand?
Uchimura never even bothered
to pay my body
a compliment of any kind!
[OLULU]
What is she going on about?
[Ulmandra crying]
[OLULU] How can I put this
in a gentle way?
-[ULMANDRA] Hm?
-I realized this
when I worked for him,
but Mr. Uchimura has
very different standards
than we do.
-Huh?
-[OLULU] He is a human.
Humans don't really understand
how showing so much skin
can be liberating.
[ULMANDRA]
Absurd!
What do I look like to him?
[OLULU]
A tease.
Ridiculous!
But, why? I always keep
my private areas covered up!
True, but those are
the only areas you cover,
-so it's pretty risque.
-Huh?
Wait a second.
Everything I did to show
my hot body off to him.
Yeah, it probably
worked against you.
[Ulmandra banging]
[ULMANDRA] Then that means
I have made so many
dumb mistakes over
and over and over again!
Please stop doing that!
I'm afraid
you'll break the floor!
-[ULMANDRA] Help me.
-Huh?
What should I do, huh?
I'm so embarrassed.
Let's see,
I just remembered
something Mr. Uchimura said
my first day working with him.
[UCHIMURA] Olulu, since
we'll be working together,
I have one request.
I'd like you to feel free
to be yourself around me.
I don't know, sounds hard.
[UCHIMURA]
You can't control everything
so don't be afraid to mess up.
You can trust me, so just
be honest with me, okay?
If you need anything,
I'll have your back.
We can always
figure things out as a team.
That's the kind of person
he really is.
So, you can just be you.
I think he'll be patient
with your mistakes.
Hmm.

The alliance with the ogres

I grant you this distinguished
service award
for facilitating this union.
Raise your head,
Overseas Manager

Sir.
[DEMON LORD]
You've achieved much
in a short amount of time.
In recognition of your success,
I bestow upon thee
this magic stone.

I am honored
to receive this award.
It means so much to me.
But, sir,
I didn't work all alone.
I couldn't have
achieved this success
without my partner's help, so.
[gasps]
Huh?
Without you,
I couldn't have done this.
What the?

represents our future together.
Will you accept
this award today?
-Wow, you're such a huge dummy!
-[UCHIMURA] What,
why is she putting me down?
[UCHIMURA]
Please take it!
Giving someone a magic stone
can be seen as a reward
but giving one to a member
of the opposite sex,
signifies a marriage proposal.
If you must give it to me,
do it someplace romantic!
Not in public like this!
Ugh!

[UCHIMURA] What do I have to

Oshinko,
when written in kanji,
means "new fragrance."
[bites]
And smell does
awaken old memories, yes.
So, that must mean
Oshinko is a time machine.
