Original subtitles

Where monsters rampage, I'm there to take them down!

Where treasure glitters, I'm there to claim it!

Where an enemy rises to face me, victory will be mine!

Well, Rezo the Red Priest's true nature has been revealed.

Now I, Lina Inverse, and Zelgadis, who stands against Rezo...

... are both on the run from him!

Rezo's after the Philosopher's Stone

which is hidden inside of the Orihalcon statue.

And since this Stone is a magic amplifier

that can change the course of history

we have more and more of Rezo's men coming after us!

And besides that, where's Gourry?! What's he doing?!

Would you get it together, Gourry?!

"GIVE UP! But, Just Before We Do, The Sure Kill Sword Appears!!"

Don't you think that's enough?

We still need a few more!

Since yesterday, all we've done is fight Rezo

and we haven't had anything to eat!

Hurry up! We have to be in Madiran by nightfall.

I hear you.

Three trolls, eh?

Again? I want to get something to eat!

You could use a diet.

I dare you to find an ounce of fat on me!

Here they come!

Lina! Where are you?

Lina!

Where are you?!

Lina! Is that you?!

Not exactly her. Maybe it could be...

The short temper's definitely a good match.

But where the heck did Lina get to?

Maybe I'm not in perfect shape, but I can give it a try!

Fire...

...Ball!

Well, looks like I've gotten the old stuff back.

It would seem your magical powers have returned.

I'm not such a basket case all the time.

Anyway, let's have our fish.

Over there.

They're... They're charcoal...

It would seem they got caught inside the fireball.

I'm hungry...

And now it's Berserkers.

Would you just lay off?!

Lay off! Lay off!

"To darkness, I pledge myself. Come to me!"

So, you've come. Zorom of the Monster race.

I'm honored you have called upon me.

I set before you two tasks.

First, steal the Philosopher's Stone

hidden within the Orihalcon statue.

Second, kill the one who betrayed me.

A simple matter.

I shall take my time killing the traitor.

Your kind enjoys human fear more than anything else.

Just don't play with him too long.

I'll do it just enough to satisfy us both.

I'm hungry. I'm tired. I wanna take a bath...

Can you walk without talking?

I thought there'd be something here in this "town"...

...but this is just a ghost town!

It's been ten years since this place was inhabited.

Besides that, why have those guys been able to find us?

Ah... That's because I'm here.

My body was created by Rezo's magic.

I appear to smell like him to them as I walk.

Rezo can locate me any time he desires.

I see. No wonder we've had that goon parade lately.

Yes, quite.

So, they can head us off wherever we go.

As you say.

Would you just come out already?!

Another overblown entrance. Eh, Dilgear?

Hello there, my dear Zel.

This is a little too overblown...

Can you beat this many by yourself, Zelgadis?

Just one second!

Aren't you forgetting someone here?

Who?

Me, you simp! Me!

So what if you're here?

You'll be eating those words.

I'm not the wimpy girl you've gotten to know!

Don't try to overuse your powers.

If you exhaust them, you'll be helpless before Rezo.

That's what he's planning with all this.

He's a real creep, isn't he?

Oh well, better use the little tricks.

"Source of all power..."

Don't let her finish!

"Light which burns beyond crimson..."

"Let thy power gather in my hand!"

Fireball!

Go!

All right! I've got it all back!

Then we'll divide the battle between us!

Okay! Leave this to me!

Wait!

What are you all waiting for?! This way!

Hold it, they're all just going after Zelgadis!

I assume you're another one of Rezo's goons?

And what if I am?

Let's see...

What else? Fireball!

A waste of time.

That self-confidence can work against you.

Shouldn't let your guard down!

I did let my guard down. Well played, my dear.

But that sorcery will not defeat me!

The fireball had no effect at all... A Monster?!

As you say!

Tell me where the Philosopher's Stone is and I'll let you live.

Bad guys never mean that when they say it.

Shall I give you my word?

It's a trap! Clear out!

Hey, Pops...

Sorry if I'm judging the book by its cover,

but you don't look like the type who keeps his promises.

I can't help it if you think that way. Now die!

Let's go!

Digger Bolt!

You fool!

What?!

I can't dodge them!

So, we meet again, Lina.

Gourry!

So, you have another ally here?

Not an ally. I'm this girl's guardian.

Who's a guardian?!

Her guardian, you say?

Then let me ask that girl one thing.

You know where the Philosopher's Stone is, don't you?

Philosopher's Stone? What's that?

Those guys are just after this Orihalcon statue here, right?

Don't show it to him!

The Stone's hidden inside that thing!

Well, how was I supposed to know that?

So, there it is. Then you're of no use to me.

You shall die!

Don't be silly.

We can't have people dying until their turn. Right, Pops?

Gourry, wait a second.

What?

Nevermind. Just get your ear down here.

Run for it!

What's with you?! What's going on?!

Shut up and run, you idiot! Run!

Run, by all means. It makes it so much more fun.

After him!

- I can't take this smell! - No kidding.

What is this place?

Looks like a barn.

Why do we have to do this?!

You were about to fight him, right?

Shouldn't I?

Listen, that guy was a Monster. A purebred Monster! Understand?

You can't even scratch him with that sword of yours.

- I see... - Don't just say "I see"!

A purebred monster has a spirit body.

Like a high-density ghost!

You can't beat someone like that with magic or melee weapons!

So that sword can't hurt him. You got that?!

But why are they using a guy like that to steal the statue?

For crying out loud!

Because the Philosopher's Stone is hidden inside it!

No kidding?

And before you even ask, the Stone's a fragment

of the Staff of the Gods that holds up the world!

And it can work like a super magic amplifier!

So it's something that can control the whole world!

Well look, I think I understand one thing.

What do you understand?

You don't have any breasts at all, do you?

Listen to me, seriously!

What the?

Maybe you're good at skipping rope, but you're awful at hide and seek!

I'm glad.

When Lord Rezo gains his sight,

the first thing he'll see shall be your remains!

I'd say that puts us on equal footing now.

Damn... What kind of monster are you?!

You're the last person who should call me a monster!

Rodimus! Zolf!

You finally came! I'm saved!

Lina, try to distract him- Yow!!!

Distract him?

You just don't listen to anyone, do you?

Oh well...

Flare Arrow!

What?!

You dodge well.

And the girl can cast spells with no small skill.

Well then, perhaps it's time I stopped playing around!

Now what?

Doesn't really have much taste, does he?

Very... weird...

Forgive the delay! Let's go!

Well, seems the odds aren't even anymore!

I'd say we have the advantage now!

Let's see you live through this one, Zelly boy!

We've finally found you!

Rodimus.

Rodimus, you're... Are you?!

Fool! My loyalty lies with Master Zelgadis!

Whatever nonsense the Red Priest goes on about...

...my duty does not lie with him!

Why, you!

Rodimus... Damn you...

Don't forget about me!

You!

God damn you! Just wait till I come back to life!

I'd say the old man's kinda pissed off at us.

Lina, I'm going in. Cover me!

Don't you understand?! It won't work!

Shut up and watch!

But... Where do you think you're going?!

You're not thinking I can be defeated by that needle!

Well, feel free to speak at least.

I couldn't beat you like that, surely!

So, there is some logic to him. What are you going to do?

I'm going to do this.

Do you understand yet?

Do you know what you're doing?!

Boy, I don't understand one thing that you've said.

How about now?

Is he nuts?!

I understand perfectly...

You are a pathetic fool!

Oh, there's no choice now!

I'll show you just how strong I really am now!

"Darkness beyond twilight, crimson beyond blood that flows."

"Buried in the flow of time..."

Light, come forth!!!

The Sword of Light...

The legendary sword that killed

the great beast Zanaffar with one stroke!

Gourry...

Lina!

Gourry...

Give me that sword!

Now hold on, how about saying "Thank you" or something?

I can thank you later! Just give me the sword!

C'mon, don't hold out! I'll give you 500 silver pieces for it!

500? That's only enough for a regular sword!

What kind of idiot would sell the Sword of Light for that little?

First of all, this happens to be a family treasure.

I wouldn't sell it for any price!

So give it to me and I'll keep it as my family treasure!

Give me the sword! Gourry! Please? Pretty please?

Seems you made it through okay.

Zelgadis!

No! Gourry, wait! Zelgadis is on our side now!

He's what?

I'll explain later. Just gimme the sword, okay?

We've been through a lot, but we're on the same side now.

How do you do?

Wow...

I forgive you!

Well, I caught up with Gourry at last.

But we still have Rezo as an enemy, so we can't relax yet.

Gotta stay on our toes, no matter what.

To be continued.

What? Everyone in town will be turned to stone?

The Red Priest Rezo is really starting to get serious!

But I will absolutely not lose!

Next Time: "HELP! Shabranigdo is Reborn!"

If you don't watch, I'll go berserk!
