The Maverick's Lair

[HAJIME] We're supposed to be
at the bottom of a labyrinth.
What's a bed doing here?
[YUE groans]
Huh?!
Thank you, Hajime.
Come on.
Rise and shine, Princess.
[YUE groans]
You sexy, blood-sucking
space cadet!
Will you wake the
hell up already?
[YUE gasps]
[babbling]
Hajime?
Yeah, that's what they call me.
'Bout time you woke up.
Now, you wanna tell--
[YUE]
You're okay!
[crying]
Don't worry.
It'll take more than some
overgrown snake to kill me.
Silence, and nowhere
near the sky ♪
Living in this darkness,
paved in strife ♪
Before I lose fire
I've gotta find what I need ♪
All of time's, a fight

Where do we go for life? ♪
Coming back again into focus ♪
I know deep inside my world ♪
Watch it fillin' up inside ♪

[HAJIME]
So, where are we?
[YUE] We're inside
the Maverick's Lair.
Finally. All right.
How about you tell
me what I missed.
You collapsed.
After that, the door opened,
revealing this place.
I dragged you inside and
lifted you up onto the bed.
It looked like the Holy Water
was starting to take effect,
and my powers were all used up.
Sounds like you saved me again.
I owe you one.
So, Yue
[YUE]
Hmm?
Tell me.
Why the hell am I naked?
You were dirty all over,
so I cleaned you up!
Okay, what's with
the lip-licking?
[YUE giggles]
I don't trust
that laugh, either.
What'd you do while
I was sleeping?
Stop that!
It's really freaking me out.
[HAJIME] Looks like I've got
somebody's entire wardrobe
to choose from.
So this Maverick
must've been a guy.
This place is huge.
I found more than clothes.
I guess we should do some
exploring once we're
all dressed, then.
So, uh, what kinda look
are you going for there?
It's not my fault
nothing here fits me.
Whatever you say.
That sunlight?
No way. Not down here.
It changes, too.
Turns dark at night.
[HAJIME]
Neat trick.
So there's a freakin'
mansion down here, too?
I looked around a little bit,
but most of the doors
seemed to be locked.
Guards up. We don't know
what's waiting in there.
[HAJIME]
Ooh! Heh.
The water's nice and warm.
Aw, man. How many months
since I had a real bath?
So get in. I'll join you.
I'll take one solo later.
[YUE grumbles]
This one's a bust, too.
You weren't kidding about all
the locked doors in this place.
Let's check the third floor.
Might as well.
Doesn't seem to be
anything else up here.
Just one big room.
That's weird. It looks like
he was waiting for someone.
[HAJIME] This room's probably
the key to finding a route
to the surface.
And we don't have many options
with Transmute not working
on those other rooms.
Yue, be ready to help
if I need it.
Right. Just be careful.
[HAJIME grunts]
[HAJIME gasps]
[HAJIME gasps]
Greetings, my name
is Oscar Orcus,
and I am the man who
built this labyrinth.
I congratulate you on
surviving my trials.
I assume the term "Maverick"
is familiar to you?
So you're him.
[OSCAR] I've no doubt you
have a great many questions.
Unfortunately, what you're
seeing is only a recording.
So I'm afraid that your
queries must go unanswered.
Instead, I wish to pass
along an important truth.
A truth about the history
of this war-torn world.
One that inspired myself
and others like me
to stand up and fight for
what we believed was right.
[SHIZUKU]
The 65th floor.
That's right. Here we go again.
The deepest floor anyone's
ever descended to.
Not bad.
Honestly, I was a little
worried when we first set out.
But everyone's gotten so strong.
It's kind of crazy.
You've been working really hard.
How many times have
you leveled up now?
Not as many as
you have, Mister Hero.
[MELD]
Stay sharp, people!
This floor's only
been partially mapped.
We have no idea what
might be waiting for us.
[GROUP]
Right!
[MELD]
Halt!
No. It can't be.
That monster again?
I thought it died
the last time, though.
It's the Behemoth.
Nobody knows the exact
respawn rate of monsters
here in the labyrinth.
But it is normal for some
creatures to re-form
after being defeated.
It's coming.
Leave a path open to retreat.
Captain Meld. We won't run.
A lot has changed
since the last time.
We're much stronger
than we used to be.
Trust me when I say that
thing's got nothing on us.
No one's retreating.
We'll stand our ground
and take that monster out.
I figure we're past
due for a rematch.
Heh. That's the spirit.
[BEAST growls]
We won't let you take
another one of us.
We're going to press past
you and move forward
with everything we've got!
[BEAST growling]
Soar to the heavens with the
speed of a thousand wings.
Heavenly Flash!
We've got this.
Shizuku, take the left flank.
Hiyama, go behind.
Captain Meld,
you take the right.
Rearguard, prepare us a
high-level magic circle.
Nice.
Clear orders, no hesitation.
[BEAST growling]
[RYUTARO]
Don't think so!
I'll stop you with
my Herculean Strength.
Rend the earth!
[RYUTARO grunts]
I've got it Now hurry!
[MELD grunts]
Become dust, splinters, and ash!
Overpower!
Not going down easy.
[SHIZUKU]
I've got this!
A supreme strike against
which nothing can stand.
Obliterate!
[SHIZUKU grunts]
Envelop the weak within
your merciful light.
Gentle Halo!
[KOUKI]
Luminous Burst!
[KOUKI grunts]
O heavenly blessing,
please lend them your strength.
Succor!
[ENDO grunts]
[HIYAMA grunts]
That broken horn's
not slowing it down much.
Everyone, get ready to attack!
[BEAST growling]
[SHIZUKU gasps]
Enemies of God may not
tread upon his domain.
Hallowed Ground!
[SUZU grunting]
[grunting]
I won't let you win!
Blessing of heaven,
reveal your secrets.
Divine Strength!
[SUZU]
Thanks, Kaori!
I love you!
Blazing Sun!
I'll finish this
with Limit Break!
D-Did we win?
[HIYAMA whimpering]
We really beat it!
That's right!
Victory is ours today!
Hell yeah, it is!
[overlapping chatter]
Hey, what's up?
Is something wrong?
[gasps] Sorry. You startled me.
It's nothing, really. I'm fine.
I guess I'm just having
a difficult time believing
we really made it this far.
Me too.
Kaori?
I don't know who you are,
or what circumstances
led you to pit yourself
against my labyrinth.
But you fought hard
and came far.
And so, I shall
grant you my power.
You may do with it
whatever you see fit.
I make but one request:
that you not use what
you gain from me for evil.
What's going on?
That's all I have to say.
You'll understand
more soon enough.
May you remain resilient,
and may your destiny
always be yours to control.
[HAJIME gasps]
[grunts] What's happening?
It's like something's being
imprinted on my mind.
[grunting]
[grunting]
Holy shit.
Hajime?
The legends are wrong.
The Mavericks weren't evil,
they were Liberators.
Till
What do we do now?
Like I told you before,
I don't give a crap
about this world or
any of the people in it.
I'm going back home.
That's all that matters.
You feel differently?
[YUE]
Mm-mm.
[YUE] I don't care
about anything else.
This is where I belong.
Anyway, I think I
learned a new spell.
That circle gave me
some kind of ancient magic.
What's it do?
[HAJIME] Apparently, it's
called "creation magic."
With it I can add
energy to raw minerals,
giving them special properties
and creating something new.
You're saying you
can make artifacts?
Sure can. Pretty badass, huh?
Oh, wow. Amazing!
You know, you could
learn the spell, too.
Except I don't know
how to use transmute.
Well, yeah, I guess that's true.
But still, it's ancient
magic, right?
The way I figure,
there's no harm in learning it.
Okay, if that's what you want.
[HAJIME yawns]
How'd it go?
You learn the spell?
Yeah.
I mean, I did, but I'm not
sure I'll be able to use it.
Too bad.
I guess this kind of ancient
magic is more compatible
with some casters
than with others.
In any case,
this place is ours now.
We might as well
ditch the skeleton.
Think we should bury it?
[HAJIME]
Bingo! Found it, Yue.
According to this,
that magic circle can take us
to the surface.
Except to connect it, we're
going to need Orcus's ring.
Luckily, that's not a problem.
I grabbed it before
we buried him.
The workshop's stocked.
Apparently, Oscar kept a bunch
of artifacts and materials
in there.
I say we take 'em.
Finders, keepers.
Hajime, see this?
[HAJIME]
So that's how it works, huh?
Make it through
the other labyrinths
and we'll get our hands
on the other forms
of ancient magic
these people possessed.
And you might find
a way to get home, too.
That's right.
So I guess we know
what we've gotta do now.
Time to go conquer
some more labyrinths.
There's even more stuff in here.
Is something wrong?
Well, I was just thinking.
Maybe we should
stay here for a while.
I want to get
back to the surface,
but there are still so many
things we need to learn.
And if we're going to
face the other labyrinths,
we should be as prepared
as we possibly can.
I'm fine with anything,
as long as you're there.
Okay, then.
[HAJIME]
Ah!
This feels amazing!
[HAJIME gasps]
It's so warm.
Hey, what're you doing?
I'm pretty sure I said
I wanted to bathe alone.
[YUE giggles]
You could at least
cover up a little.
There were lots of
towels back there.
But I want you to look.
Ah You're killin'
me here, Yue.
See, the thing is
What's wrong?
You don't think I'm pretty?
No, that's not it.
I think you're totally gorgeous.
[YUE giggles]
Well, good.
All of me is yours, Hajime.
So there's no point
in being shy.
[HAJIME gasps]
You're just I, um I
Ah! So naked!
[YUE giggles]
Ah oh! Oh, wow,
I can feel it touching me.
Feel what?
[HAJIME]
You're kidding, right?!
Know what?
Forget it, I'm out of here.
[YUE]
I don't think so!
[HAJIME]
Hey! No! Hold on!
[yells]
[HAJIME gasps]
[HAJIME chuckles]
We're fully geared up, and
I've gained all I'll be able to
from eating monster meat.
It took two whole months,
but I think we're as
ready as we're gonna be.
Yue, the weapons and
powers I've got now,
they'll draw attention.
Especially from the Holy Church.
I doubt they'll
be very accepting.
It would be one thing if
it was just them we faced,
but I wouldn't be too
surprised if we had the gods
targeting us, as well.
[HAJIME] It might just
be us against the world.
And honestly, I'm not sure
if we have enough lives
saved up to survive it.
[YUE]
We may not.
But if I look out for you,
and if you look out for me,
nobody can stop us. Nobody.
All right. We'll beat
everything and everyone.
And bust out of this
crappy world together.
