Lloyd, once you get to Azami, do as I have instructed.

Okay!

Well, I'm off!

Yay!

I'm counting on you.

Aero!

"Suppose a kid from the last dungeon boonies got used to life in a starter town?"

And so, without further ado,

the exhibition match celebrating the friendship between

The Kingdom of Azami and the Jiou Empire shall now begin!

You're...

--Micona! --Miss Micona?!

What is going on?

My apologies. I was not entirely honest.

This is a suggestion:

How does an alliance between our two nations sound?

To take over the world.

Wha--?

As you can see,

we have the technology to turn humans into powerful and obedient weapons

using the power of monsters.

And Azami possesses the resources and finances to fund a global conquest!

What do you think?

Your Majesty! You must not--

No interruptions!

Five years ago,

when I was taken over by the Demon Lord Abaddon,

I caused much hardship for my people and my daughter.

I vowed to never let something like that happen again.

And so as for your offer,

I decline.

In that case...

Oh, well. Guess it's my turn, huh?

Where are you going, Eug? Things are just about to get started.

We have a pretty good idea what it is you're planning:

Tag-team with that Sou guy, take the Holy Sword, and unlock the Last Dungeon.

That's why you left Sir Lloyd and Chief Alka back in Kunlun,

because they'd get in the way.

I don't know why'd you want to unseal the dungeon,

but we won't let you get away with it.

You won't "let" me? How do you ordinary people suppose you'll stop me?

"Ordinary people"?

You've just experienced Kunlun. You should understand.

I am anything but ordinary. How do you intend to stop me from doing what I want?

You're right about that.

Sir Lloyd has been carrying us for everything.

If not for him, I wouldn't have been freed of that cursed belt,

and I would still have a dark outlook on the world as a whole...

But no more!

We want to walk alongside him, not be carried by him.

We want to become strong enough to thwart your evil plans.

We will become strong enough!

Fully agreed. Today, we celebrate our "No More Carried by Lloyd Day"!

What a mouthful.

Long story short, we won't go down without a fight!

Strong words. Now I'm a little mad.

Those are Abaddon's locusts!

You must decide quickly, or those monsters will massacre your people.

So, what'll it be? The entire audience has now been held hostage.

Indeed. Keeping these hostages safe is no small task.

But...

The Kingdom of Azami isn't that easy to take down!

To arms! Begin combat!

This is...

Nice. Talk about intense! They saw this coming,

and they replaced the entire audience with soldiers and adventurers!

Do you get it now? Then hurry up and please leave.

Merthophan!

I heard about you in Kunlun,

about the boy who got tired of rural life and left the village.

Oh, right. You went to Kunlun, didn't you?

Listen, boy. To stop you from doing more naughty things,

I'm going to educate you on the wonders of agriculture!

Huh?

It's a traditional agricultural style!

But why strip?!

Wait, is that--?

It's cultivating time!

I knew it! It's the Scythe of Adamus and the Tablet of Destiny!

Swinging around two god-tier artifacts? That's intense!

Scythe attack!

Hoe attack!

Do you see, boy? This is agriculture!

"Note: Just his personal take"

Do you see, boy? This is agriculture!

How so?

See how much fun agriculture is?!

And where is agriculture at its finest? The countryside, of course!

Now surely you must see. The countryside isn't as boring as you think!

Ah, I see where the misunderstanding is.

I'm not bored of the countryside: I'm bored of the whole world.

I just don't want Lloyd to feel that way. That's why...

In order to make him think the outside world is interesting,

in order for him to realize his dream to become a soldier in the best way,

Lloyd needs a great stage with the best supporting actors!

Everything is for Lloyd.

That's why I'm going to put the world in a little bit of a pinch.

You're strong...

But you're still ordinary, and therefore no match for me.

So stay out of the way and take a nap or something!

There're too many of them.

Miss Micona?!

Miss Marie!

Huh?

Huh? Micona...?

It's beyond comprehension.

Don't tell me...

--Gotcha! --How ruthless.

Now lead me to the Holy Sword, King of Azami.

I suppose I let my guard down a little.

What are you? Are you not human?!

I'm technically human. I was just born a little special.

To put simply...

I'm a being made of runes, like "hero," "human," "immortal," and some others.

Runes? You mean, those ancient...

That's right. Long ago, when the world was still in chaos,

I was created as a beacon of hope to save and lead humanity

using runes, by Alka.

I was supposed to vanish once the world was saved, but...

I couldn't disappear.

I remained as an inconclusive existence,

bound by the concept of "hero" and bound to this world in a half-baked way.

As time went on, my existence started to fade,

and I became an unstable presence seen differently by each person.

Assuming that's true, why would such a heroic savior want to do this?

I want to vanish completely.

In order to do that, I must kill Alka, turn a certain person into the hero,

and make myself the root of all evil.

When I cease to be the hero, then I can die.

What "certain person"?

Lloyd Belladonna.

Lloyd...

Lloyd!

Sir Lloyd!

Lloyd...

Wh-Wh-What?

Um, did the exhibition match already begin?

I promised Mr. Allan that I'd be sure to watch his match.

I had to call in a lot of favors from the people back home to get me here.

No, no, no! You coming here couldn't possibly have been that easy!

Oh, Ms. Eug. Chief Alka told me all about you.

Well, that's unexpected. I didn't think she'd tell you the truth.

You couldn't really bring Vritra back but you made a show of it

and when that didn't work, you just pretended and ran off,

closing up the gate so we couldn't go after you. That's horrible!

Huh?

Don't "huh" me! You have to be honest about what you can and can't do.

Wait, wait, no!

I've refused to revive Vritra on purpose.

I want to fill this world with demon lords and bring it to its knees!

That's your grand plan?

Now you're just spewing nonsense. Even I'm not gullible enough to buy that!

Ugh, he's impossible! Super-pure naive boy is just impossible!

Here's the thing, Lloyd: We're in a bind right now! The truth is,

Ms. Eug brought back some eggs that hatched into these annoying insects!

We can't start Allan's match because of these pests!

Oh, so that's why there are so many insects buzzing around.

Right!

Come to think of it, Chief Alka told me I should destroy Mr. Vritra's egg.

Where are you keeping the egg, Ms. Eug?

Please hand it over!

Uh, about that...

Come get it, if you can.

What a mess. These Kunlun villagers drive me crazy!

Still...

I had a great trick up my sleeve just in case something like this happened.

A giant golem!

What is that massive monster?!

M-Monster?!

That's...

And there are still more surprises!

It's trying to suck Miss Micona in!

Micona!

Such immense power.

Lloyd! Please help Micona!

Okay!

Lloyd!

I don't know if I can beat a monster, but...

I have to!

Your Majesty! This way!

Yes! I knew Lloyd could do it!

What?!

It's regenerating?

Too bad!

That's...

It's no use.

What was that?!

Shoot, he dodged.

Lloyd!

Damn. He can't very well attack the area where Miss Micona is.

We have to do something about that regeneration.

This is just a guess, but...

I think the golem is using Micona as its regeneration core.

Hey, this is bad.

If we can free Micona, it should lower the golem's regenerative ability.

But we can't even get close to it...

Miss Micona is such a superhuman now. Can't she get out on her own?!

No. She's unconscious.

But we have to do something!

I knew it...

I'm too weak to beat an actual monster.

I can't win...

The two of you, please help the master.

Come on, Lloyd. Is this the end of your story?

What is your dream?

My dream is agriculture!

Hey, Miss Micona! Can you hear me?

Get out of there!

Dammit, she won't react at all!

Micona!

My...

My...

My dream...

...is to become noble and strong, to protect the smiles of those dear to me...

To become a soldier, like that hero!

Miss Micona!

If you come out from there, Miss Marie's panties are yours!

That's absurd!

Mr. Vritra! What are you doing locked away inside that egg?!

Huh?

Everyone's in trouble, and it's your fault!

Stop ignoring me and get out of there!

Can you not obey your master's orders?

Wait, um...

All right, fine. if that's how you want to be,

I'll just have to review the Teachings of Sir Lloyd chapters 1 to 73 with you,

recite his height, weight, and all other vital data five times every night,

then train you to draw a lifelike portrait of Sir Lloyd with your eyes closed.

No, not every night: every moment starting right now!

Chapter 1. Sir Lloyd's smile is a blessing upon the entire world,

a boon to every local economy. His heart is the sun that shines upon everyone...

His every step reminds us of the creation of life itself.

We as his disciples must study his actions, his benevolence...

We must uphold those values and be ready to face hardship,

such as occasionally being called a stalker and chased by the authorities.

For every future, for every reincarnation, from birth to death,

every word uttered between "good morning" and "good night" shall...

I'm sorry! I'm truly sorry, my master! Please spare me from the training!

He unsealed himself!

"Bwah!"

The value of a good education.

That's not so good of an education!

Blow away, aero!

Got him!

Sir Lloyd!

My golem was defeated...?

Shoma! Sou! Work with me and take those guys out!

A new generation of hero, Lloyd Belladonna, arrives to save Azami from danger.

That first step, perfectly captured...

All right, last one! Lloyd, eyes over here please!

Shoma?!

Hey there, Lloyd. What do I look like to you?

You're that evil-looking person from the other day!

Yes! You truly are great. You're the new hero to replace me!

So intense!

Oh, right... The only reason they helped me was to make Lloyd a hero.

That darn Alka must have seen this coming when she sent him!

Give up now. Your plan has failed.

Shut up! I will make this world more advanced

so that I can control the power of the Last Dungeon!

I'll remake the world as many times as I need to!

I've decided to let this world walk more leisurely.

And regardless of where it ends up, I'll be tagging along.

If you want to deny that, I will stop you with everything I've got.

Shoma... Sou...

I'd like to kill you right now, but today is not the day.

I have so much heroic footage of Lloyd to edit.

Lloyd! Look forward to more intense brotherhood from your big bro Shoma!

And look forward to more evil deeds from me, Lloyd!

Are you sure you don't need any help, Lloyd?

Ah, I'm fine.

Lloyd!

Your loveable village chief is here!

Master! Is there any way you could make an entrance without stepping on my head?!

Hey there, Chief.

Oh, Lloyd!

I guess I really need to take care of evil pests quickly.

Do your worst, fledgling.

I'll use a rune on you to turn you into a lizard so you'll never be human again.

I guess we'll have to settle this soon.

Bring it on! I'll destroy this world if that's what it takes to--

What was that for?

Please stop putting humanity at risk. It's just childish.

What was that for?!

You're blocking the entrance!

Hey Lloyd, one black coffee.

Excuse me.

Smells delicious.

Welcome! Over here, please.

Thank you all for coming today.

I made a lot of food for everyone. Please enjoy!

Thanks for the food!

"Thank you for watching!"
