Original subtitles

Rebellions erupted all over the Summerforth Empire

as a result of the corrupt regime.

Just as the nobles of each duchy began to consolidate their territory,

Amador Salemakhia, duke of the Duchy of Missian

died.

The Duchy of Missian was divided into two factions,

led by the Duke's eldest son, Curran Salemakhia,

and the youngest son, Basamark Salemakhia.

In response to Basamark's claims to the duke's throne

and seizure of Arcantez,

Curran chose to declare war.

(Lamberg, Semplar, Samuk, Belzud) Ars, the lord of Lamberg,

had the Shadow mercenary group work for him

and started the attack on Staatz Castle.

(Episode 22: Snowball Fight)

(Staatz Castle) We can see Staatz Castle now.

Get in touch with Lord Curran and start the operation!

This is the plan the group of Ars came up with.

50,000 soldiers of Curran Army's main force encircle

and troops of Ars numbering 5,000 will lay siege from the north

like this.

The enemy general, the Belzud county chief,

will deploy most of his mages

to the south gate to resist the main force of Curran side.

Naturally, he also leave enough mages

to deal with 5,000 troops at the north gate.

But at that time…

The enemy miscalculated.

(As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I'll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World S2)

(Staatz Castle)

So they really did get reinforcements from Rolto.

It's only a mere 5,000 soldiers, just as the reports said.

Repel them according to the plan!

Fire!

Yes, sir!

Defeat the invaders!

Yes, sir!

This is so unlike me.

Captain!

A mage is approaching us terribly fast!

It's only one person.

Magic amplifier, aim at them!

Fire!

Forma Igni Irrupt!

The 5,000 soldiers under the command of Ars

were no ordinary soldiers.

I may be the only one,

but I alone am worth a hundred!

Very well.

Ars.

Yes.

Charge, everyone!

Charge forward!

Mr. Clamant

and the Maitro Mercenary Group,

please lead the attack.

Then open the south gate from the inside,

so Lord Curran can go in.

Would you be willing to take on this dangerous mission?

Leave it to us.

Also, to help them defeat the enemy, we will follow behind them into the castle.

Miss Charlotte, Mr. Rietz!

You guys are truly amazing!

Mr. Rietz and Miss Mireille,

kindly direct the army to the front lines.

You're in charge of leading them.

The wall broke! The enemy's coming!

If they open the south gate from inside,

and let the Curran army invade…

We'll be done for!

Looks like they're in high spirits.

(The Young Soldier of Staatz Castle)

Things are finally getting interesting.

(Staatz Castle, North Gate)

Attack!

Charge!

Defeat the enemy!

Defend!

Tomas isn't here, right?

There're so many of them.

Rietz!

The number doesn't matter.

We just have to take them all down

for the sake of the victory of Lord Ars!

Who is that?

He's so strong!

Not only did they break the wall, we're also getting pushed back.

We're already done for.

We surrender!

Captain.

Please spare the lives of my subordinates

and take them captive.

Smart decision.

Everyone, throw down your weapon…

Hey, wait a minute!

You guys are so excited to fight

that I want to join in!

Ouch!

Don't make a mess of this!

Shut up and stand back like a good boy!

No way!

It's not fair if only you get to fight!

Who are you?

Good question.

My name is Braham Joe!

Born and raised in Belzud!

I'm…

Um…

17 years old!

I said we're surrendering!

Shut up!

I wasn't done talking yet!

Listen properly!

They call me the "malignant boy of Staatz Castle".

You'll have to go through me!

Don't let him get close to Mr. Rietz!

Out of my way!

W-What crazy power!

Hey, you Marca!

You're the strongest here, aren't you?

Fight me!

Sure, bring it on!

F-Follow Joe!

I knew you are strong!

Everyone in this castle is weaker than me.

Nobody could match me at all.

It's been a long time since I met someone strong.

I am so happy!

I see. Honestly speaking,

of all the fights I've ever had, this appears to be the most boring.

Fighting with me is boring?

Yeah.

But I am

the strongest person in this castle!

There's just no way fighting me could bore you!

But that's just how it is.

You depend only on strength and intuition.

You're not skilled.

Ouch!

Your field of view is far too narrow.

You're getting tricked by even the simplest feints.

You have talent,

so why fight in a way that makes no use of it?

Huh, it's over?

Miss Mireille.

Good job.

Well done.

It seems everything here is resolved.

Thank you.

Mr. Rietz…

It is not a deep enough cut!

Don't give up!

Come on, stand up!

Huh? He's giving an enemy a lesson?

(Braham Joe, 17 years old, male)

(likes fighting likes young and strong women)

Your fighting style is frankly the worst.

A warrior is someone

who trains day after day, constantly pushing their own limits.

If you just want to act like a big shot because you're strong,

you'd better give up on ever becoming a soldier.

I-I'm sorry, Lord Ars!

I ended up training an enemy!

Ma-

Master!

Please!

Take me as your disciple!

What?

What are you saying? We are enemies, aren't we?

Right, then I …

decide to side with you.

No, wait! Why should I even make you my disciple?

I wanna be a lot stronger!

I can start as your luggage carrier.

Okay? It's fine, right?

Please!

It's just impossible!

Okay!

Please! By all means, join us!

Lord Ars?

(Braham Joe, 17 years old, male) He's crazy talented!

(Intellect 61, Currently 6) His Intellect is a bit low…

(Prowess 92, Command 102) but his maximum Prowess and Command

(Prowess 92, Command 102) surpass Mr. Rietz's!

I'm sure you could

make him realize his talent, Mr. Rietz!

(Joe) (Shake) Shake.

(Woof) Woof!

Go!

(Woof) Woof woof!

I'm sure you could tell he was talented as well, Mr. Rietz.

I acknowledge he has talent, but…

Master, who is this brat?

He's not a brat!

It's Lord Ars Louvent.

The person I serve.

(Joe's imagination) The master of my master?

Does that mean he's stronger than Mr. Rietz?

The master of my master!

I'm Braham Joe.

I'll be in your care from now on.

I'm Ars. Nice to meet you.

Mr. Rietz…

Master!

Mr. Rietz…

Since you say so, Lord Ars…

Thank you.

Let's get going since it's decided.

Make way. Mr. Rietz is coming through!

I can finally see you, big brother.

Huh?

There appears to be a new, interesting child.

You are…

The torturing demon, Mireille Grandione!

Many of the people she tortures

ended up as cripples!

This is bad!

Never being able to function again,

be it physically or mentally!

Please!

We will tell you the deployment of the soldiers and the location of the traps!

Please don't torture us!

Really? Thanks.

Was Miss Mireille that scary?

(Staatz Castle, Trap Room)

We disabled the traps!

(Staatz Castle, South Gate)

Charge!

With the main force of Curran Army charging in,

the lord of Staatz Castle, Kanses Bandol, fled right away.

Curran side successfully captured Staatz Castle.

(Arcantez Castle) The Duchy of Missian succession war

entered its final stages.

We have finally succeeded in capturing Staatz Castle.

(Gaze of Suspicion) You've all done well.

Especially Ars Louvent here.

He not only captured Rolto Castle

and saved my life by sending mercenaries,

but was also the key to conquering Staatz Castle.

Yay, the master of my master!

Give him a hand!

We all worked together! Thank you very much!

It was predicted to snow, but this amount of snow was overwhelming.

Yeah.

I'm coming in.

Ars, you're finally here.

Don't mind them, they're just my bodyguards.

Allow me to repeat how big a contribution you made this time.

Not at all, it's all thanks to everyone's efforts.

A young lord like you

can have so many accomplishments,

which is completely unprecedented.

You possess exceptional courage and wisdom.

And then you have that mysterious power to gauge people's abilities.

Just who are you?

Or rather…

What are you hiding?

Huh?

What happened to Lord Curran?

He feels so different from usual.

Does he think I'm after the throne or something?

No, maybe…

He noticed that I'm not from this world?

I'm just an ordinary lord.

That's right.

But you've done so much

and worked so hard, surely you have some kind of goal.

Don't lie to me.

I do have a goal.

What is it?

I have only one goal.

And it's to make a world where my people

can live peacefully and happily.

I don't know why I have this power.

But I was born as the son of lord

and the day I inherited the fief from my father,

I decided to use this power

for the sake of the people.

I see! You answered just as I expected you to.

Why do you look so shocked?

It's just that my vassals have been noisy as of late.

They keep asking who you are.

Many suspected that

you were planning to usurp the throne.

Of course I never believed that.

I would never!

My anxious vassals should rest easy

after hearing what you just said.

Well, as the saying goes…

"If you stand out, people are sure to notice you."

And you stand out the most in all of the Duchy of Missian right now.

I expect great things from you, Ars.

Yes, sir!

T-That was nerve-wracking!

It was really terrifying.

What would've happened if I gave the wrong answer?

But it's a fact that there are people out there who don't like me.

I need to be careful.

What's going on?

I shot down Ars Louvent!

Miss Charlotte, what are you doing?

There's just so much snow. No way I'm not gonna play.

It's my first time seeing snow.

Look! It's so white!

How silly.

We may be taking a rest, but we're still at war.

What would you do if you caught a cold and affected the next fight?

I took down Rietz Muses as well!

M-Mr. Rietz?

Come, Joe!

Counterattack!

Yes, Master.

Come and fight!

Attack them from both the right and the left.

Okay, break through the center!

Master, look! I made some giant snowballs.

I-It kind of lively.

Come now! Will team west or team east win?

Team west has better odds right now.

Come, make a bet!

Mr. Fahm, what are you doing?

Ars.

I may like gambling,

but I like making money even more.

Jeez. What a noisy bunch.

Are you going to join, Mr. Clamant?

No.

Miss, you sure can drink.

You too.

Want to see who can drink the fastest?

Everyone, look!

It's huge!

Nicely done.

Charlotte, wait!

Rietz, you went and broke it.

It's your fault! You're the one who ran away!

I'm sorry, Rosell.

I-It's fine. I don't mind at all.

I don't…

I'm really sorry!

I call a truce!

We all have to remake the snowman!

That means you shall help too, Charlotte!

Well then.

Amazing! It's even bigger than before!

Thank you!

Hey, you!

The fight got called off, so the bets are invalid!

Give us back our money!

Give us back our money…

They got away with shadow magic!

Stop, wait!

Mr. Fahm…

Hey Ars.

When does it snow, actually?

Will it keep snowing?

Only in winter.

So it's just for now?

I want to see it again with everyone next year.

(You're gonna catch a cold) You're gonna catch a cold.

(Achoo)

(These two are monsters) These two are monsters…

This is nice!

(Snore) (Lord Lenge...)

(Snore) (Lord Lenge...) Lord Lenge…

Next year and every year after that,

I will protect their smiles.

Mireille figured out my whole plan.

She's undoubtedly a genius.

But if I continue to fail…

I…

Lord Tomas…

That's not like you at all.

Tomas.

Lord Basamark.

We are having a great time.

You…

Relax, it is okay once in a while, right?

Lord Ars is also very pleased.

That's true, indeed.

But don't let your guard down, okay?

Yeah, yeah.

Let's show them our strength.
