Original subtitles

I guess they're all alive, at least.

It's good to see that Yue and Tio have reverted to their original forms.

Now, whether or not they can come out of it by themselves...

Shouldn't be a problem.

Come back soon, Yue.

I desperately want to hear your voice right now...

Yue. Welcome back.

Episode 7: A Devilish Trial

How are you feeling?

Hajime?

Yes, it's me.

Are you the real Hajime?

I can guess why you would ask such a thing.

I'll leave it up to you to decide,

whether or not the me right here in front of you is real or fake, for you.

Side note, I'm completely certain that you in my arms right now are the true, real Yue.

How was I over there?

You looked fantastically good in my high school's uniform.

I'll wear it for you some day.

Can't wait. How about you?

Ahem!

You looked good in full formal attire on your throne.

Sorry, I can do the formal attire but not a throne.

Wait, why a throne?

I was the queen.

We already had 11 children.

A huge family?!

Ahem! Ahem!

Ahem, brr, grah, achoo!

Nobody wants me.

I worked hard to snap back to reality, and I'm treated like I don't exist.

I read the room and passively asserted my presence with coughs but...

Yeah, Shea needs bunny ears.

Bunny ears make Shea.

Without bunny ears, there is no Shea.

In fact, the bunny ears are Shea.

What does that even mean?

The bunny ears aren't the core of my existence.

What was your dream like, Shea?

For me, I was never summoned to this world.

I lived with Yue, Shea and the others in a peaceful world.

That was what my dream was like.

In my dream, I met Hajime-san before my family was hunted down.

We all lived together.

All I had to do was sit and be protected.

But my heart screamed, no! That's not it!

Before I realized I chose to fight by your side.

That's how you were able to make it back.

Yes!

I want to fight alongside Hajime-san and Yue-san.

Even if that path is full of pain and suffering.

Um, Hajime-san?

Well, anyway, welcome back, Shea.

I'm glad you came back.

Yes! I'm back, thank you!

Hajime.

Master's punishment is not so weak!

Start over from scratch, fool!

Master!

I'm back now! Please love me!

What is it, master?

Are you lost in admiration of my beauty?

If you want me to admire you, don't force yourself to smile.

I'd rather see you with your usual pervert face.

At any rate...

Welcome back, Tio.

Yes, I'm back, master.

N-No! It's not what you think, Hajime-kun!

I wasn't just... How do I put it...

It's really not what you think! I didn't avoid you or anything!

Well, I don't mind.

It's related to the dream, right?

What was your dream like?

Huh? How, well, I mean...

Kaori, you closet pervert.

I'm not a closet pervert!

So, everyone on our side made it out now.

What should we do about the Hero party?

I guess we should wait to see if they can get out on their own, for now.

How long should we wait?

How about, while we eat and take a break?

I used a lot of magic power getting out, I could use a rest stop.

I guess we've waited enough.

Yes, agreed.

Yeah.

We have to cut it off at some point.

That amber, it's Shizuku-chan!

Yaegashi was the fastest, as I expected.

Yes, Shizuku is reliable. It's to be expected, in a way.

Where am I... Kaori?

Yes, it's me, Shizuku-chan.

Welcome back.

I see, so I'm back.

Wow, I'm really tired.

You slept in quite a bit.

But I'm glad to see you've made it out.

Huh? Oh... N-Nagumo-kun.

Yes, I'm glad... Too.

Shizuku, what was your dream like?

Huh? What...

It was a regular dream. Nothing special.

Oh yes, what a normal dream it was.

Normal? Who was in it?

Who? Well, everyone! Everyone was there!

I see.

Me, a pretty princess? Impossible.

Besides, why would the prince be...

I'm counting on you, Kaori.

Don't disintegrate their bodies.

Yes, it's fine.

I won't lose control as long as I'm out of combat.

Disintegrate.

Huh? Kaori? Shizuku?

I thought I was with you two...

Wha? Where am I? I thought I was...

Eri?! Huh?

Wait... Where's Eri?

Suzu-chan...

It is what it is, I guess.

Are you three alright?

Amanogawa, Taniguchi. There's no time for reflection.

Prepare yourselves.

Otherwise, your hopes will really be lost.

Y-Yeah, I know.

You're right. Yes!

Looks like we're all here this time.

Hajime, any imposters?

No, seems okay.

Hmm. Something feels bad.

Yeah, it's like the time we were ambushed in the Great Orcus Labyrinth.

Yes.

And it's not like there's any sign of monsters nearby.

I wouldn't bet on nothing happening, but...

Hmm? Rain?

Yeah, it's starting up.

But we're inside the great tree!

Yue!

Yes. Herem!

Nagumo-kun, the surroundings...

Slimes?

What kind of stealth is this? Not even my Demon Eye could detect them!

Nagumo! They're coming from beneath our feet!

Whoa! Disintegrate!

Damn it, stop sticking!

Hey, Ryutarou, watch it!

You got it all over us!

I got goop all over me. Feels gross.

Damn it! Are you alright, Shizuku—

Yes, I'm fine, Kouki.

These aren't hard to kill at all.

Wait, what's wrong?

Um, no, nothing!

That's right, nothing!

I should wipe their memories later.

Yue, set up a barrier.

I'll incinerate everything, ceiling to floor.

Got it.

This is for getting nasty stuff all over Yue and the others!

Very well done, if I may say so myself.

Can I remove the barrier now?

No, keep it up for just a bit longer.

Yue?

Yue?

Hajime...

Hajime, something's wrong...

I really... Really want you now.

Whoa, Yue?

What are you talking about...

What's wrong?

Hajime-san, I'm going crazy.

Wait a minute. Is this...

Hajime-kun, I...

I won't give in...

Damn it! So, this is what that slime was really for!

Master, are you all right?

It seems like that slime was actually a powerful aphrodisiac.

It causes extreme pleasure, blocking us from using even the simplest of magic.

What's troublesome is, this isn't a slime-based physical effect.

It's actually a psychological effect.

It might take a while,

but with the proper mental effort, we should be able to overcome it.

Hey, how come you're so calm?

If I remember correctly, you had that stuff all over you, more than the others,

like you were starring in a comedy show or something.

My body is under the effect of the slime as well.

The extreme pleasure rampaging through my body is preventing me from using magic.

But don't underestimate me.

Who do you think I am, master?

Tio...

I am your lowly humble servant!

This pleasure is nothing compared to the pleasure through pain dealt from you!

Is that so? That's great, Tio-san...

Or rather, Miss Klarus.

Seriously great. Could you stay away from me please?

He's using the polite form on me! And calling me by my clan name!

The distance is so far!

Treating me like he doesn't know me, now?!

Oh no, I'm losing myself in the pleasure...

Yue, Shea, Kaori.

I know some stupid monster can't control you.

You're still sane, right?

Of course.

Yes, sir!

I'm fine... I know!

This is probably another thing that can't be cured with magic.

That said, we have Ambrosia.

Do you want to try it?

No. No need.

I don't need it.

No thanks.

In the end, the six of us...

Me, Yue, Shea, Tio, Kaori and Yaegashi were able to withstand it.

Nagumo... Sorry to trouble you.

You saved me, Nagumo. Thanks, seriously.

Suzu, let's forget about it. It couldn't be helped.

Shizu-Shizu...

We're underground, that's for certain, but...

The great tree?

I suppose so.

Does that mean we're underneath the great tree?

But if that's the case, the great tree we saw on the surface was...

Hmm.

There's no doubt that this is Uralt, the great tree.

Since there are branches growing out of the trunk underground,

it must mean that the real roots are deeper underground.

Naturally, it must mean that what we saw on the surface was just the tip of the tree.

Who would have thought it was just a small part of it?

H-How big is it, really?

What's that sound?

Hmm, I can't see. It's too dark.

Let's use Body Strengthening to improve my vision...

What's wrong, Shea?

Hajime? What's wrong?

Hajime-kun?

Master, are you all right?

The devil...

Devil?

The devil... The devil is there.

Um, by devil, you mean like, a devil?

No, worse, much worse than the devils of hell.

You know them well yourselves.

The devils in the kitchen...

Why would you show that to us?!

Roaches! So many roaches!

There are millions... No, tens of millions of them!

Hajime, let's incinerate them!

I don't know. Look at their numbers.

What if a huge swarm of survivors come flying our way?

Damn it!

Lightning Wyrm!

No! Blow away!

Eek! Disintegrate! Disintegrate!

Stay away from me!

Bring it on!

C-C-Celestial Flash!

T-This is hallowed ground, h-heathens shall not pass!

Herem!

I'm out...

Suzu! Don't sleep! Sleep and we'll die!

We'll all go insane!

Yue, put up a defense on top.

Yes. I won't let anything get through!

This type of thing keeps happening in this labyrinth!

Since it assumes you've finished a few other labyrinths first,

its difficulty is set several tiers higher, I guess.

Don't just calmly analyze this. We have to do something!

Kaori, it's fine.

Everything is fine. Those are just black sesame seeds.

I actually like it.

Black sesame in sweets, black sesame on rice...

Oh no! Shizuku-chan is already half-way gone!

Shizuku-chan! Shizuku-chan!

Wait... No way...

Is it constructing a magic circle?!

Damn it, I won't let you!

What was that all about?

Yue, do you...

Yue.

Hajime.

I really hate you right now.

I despise you so much, I could kill you.
