How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord (2018) s02e08 Episode Script

[REM] It's too much.
I can't hold on for much longer.
--Rem, just breathe!
--Is she okay?
Oh no. Lean over the rail!
I'll hold your hair!
I feel so bad for her.
Don't. It happens all the time.
[HORN] I've never seen motion
sickness that extreme.
[REM]
I'm too young for this.
[gasps] There it is!
Right in front of us!
[TAKUMA]
So that's the royal capital.
[TAKUMA]
Seven Wall.
[SOLDIER 8A]
What business have you here?
[SOLDIER 8B]
A suspicious man with horns?
You're not a Fallen, are you?
[TAKUMA] Seriously?
They're surrounding us?
I really don't need
this kind of drama
while Lumachina's with us.
You there! Tell us your name.
Remove your hood
and reveal your face!
[TAKUMA] Okay fine.
They asked for this, though.
If you're pointing
those spears at me,
then I'm assuming you're
prepared for the consequences.
Right. You don't scare us!
[LUMACHINA]
Don't. I'll be fine.
[TAKUMA] I'm already balls deep.
No turning back now.
[ALICIA]
Please stand back.
Let them through.
They mean us no harm.
[BOTH gasp]
I remember you.
[ALICIA] It's been quite
a long time, hasn't it?
But I received Rem's letter
and have been
anticipating your arrival.
Welcome, Diablo.
Alicia?
Whoa!
I think my heart just stopped!
[SHERA]
It's beautiful!
You can see the
whole capital from here!
[HORN]
And beyond that!
[ALICIA] The inn is yours
to use however you like
for as long as you
plan to be here.
Hold on. What's the catch?
Not that I'm questioning
your intentions, but
If we stay here even one day,
we're going to
run out of money fast.
[ALICIA] You don't have to
worry about any of that.
I'll be glad to take care of
your accommodations.
[REM]
What? Really?
Yes. Anything for Diablo.
If he wanted me to buy
the entire inn, I would.
What? For real?
Rem, are you okay?
Thanks. That's nice to hear.
[TAKUMA] The entire inn?
Just how rich are you, Alicia?
Please forgive me.
Where are my manners?
Allow me to introduce myself.
I am Alicia Cristela,
an Imperial Knight.
It's an honor to meet you.
Thank you for
assisting us with that.
It's much appreciated.
It is quite an honor
to serve you.
[ROSE] Excuse me.
I need to know the truth
about your relationship
with my master.
And who are you?
I am his servant, Rose.
My entire existence
is to serve my master.
[TAKUMA]
This can't be good!
Alicia is a Demon Lord worshiper
who put our lives in danger
to resurrect the
Demon Lord before.
[TAKUMA] Even though she's sworn
her loyalty to me these days,
Rose can't find out about it!
Rose, you don't need to pry.
[ALICIA]
I'll put it this way.
If he asked me to die for him,
I wouldn't ask why.
Does that answer your question?
[ROSE]
Perhaps.
Would I be right to
assume you identify
as one of my
master's possessions?
You would unless
he has forsaken me.
Understood. Thank you.
You've been a big help.
Now that I know who you are,
I can act appropriately.
You're the best.
So that leaves you.
I'm gonna guess you're Horn?
[TAKUMA]
Wow! Smooth!
I didn't know how she was
gonna get past Rose.
But she's got skills!
[SHERA]
I can't do it anymore.
Farewell, cruel world!
And thank you. For everything.
[HORN]
I'm so full!
I'm about to have food triplets!
I know how you feel!
You guys are gross.
I'm afraid there's nothing
I can do about that.
I want to be strong.
I thought I could eat enough
to be more like you, Mister.
I just want to help more.
Too bad you're
a Grasswalker and you're
cursed to live your life
looking like an embryo.
Thanks for crushing
my dreams, Rem.
[DIABLO]
It's no big deal.
As long as you're
faithful to me.
[ROSE] If Master would desire,
although it pains me to share,
I do know a way
to empower her more.
It's a little complex,
so make sure you're up for it.
[HORN]
Empower me how?
[ROSE] First, place this
treasure around your neck.
It will form a Master-Servant
Pact with my master,
and the Servant will develop
a strength of her own.
A Master-Servant Pact, huh?
Wow! That sounds lovely!
I'll be in a pact with Diablo!
Hold on a minute.
Doesn't the servant
in that pact die?
If he dies, they both do?
[TAKUMA]
Please let me go to heaven!
[HORN] Wait! What do you mean
I'm gonna die?
Is that a problem for you?
In exchange for having access
to my master's power?
Becoming his servant provides
more benefits than
words can explain.
I'd become that powerful?
But I could also die.
Listen carefully. Horn.
Once you make that pact,
you're completely locked in.
Also, how are you
supposed to find work
or a partner for the future
with a collar around your neck?
It's a big deal.
What'll you do?
Well? Horn?
Still thinking.
Right. Take your time.
I've decided I want this back.
The more that I think about it,
the less I like the idea
of your kind being
near my master!
[ALICIA] I've taken
the liberty of arranging
sleeping chambers
for each of you.
It might be a little cramped
in here for you, Diablo.
My apologies.
[DIABLO] Thank you.
It won't be a problem.
[TAKUMA] It looks
just like a king's bedroom.
Well, it seems you've already
surmised the situation.
Yes. May I come closer?
I have something serious
to discuss with you.
Yes. That's fine.
[ALICIA]
Thank you, sir.
[TAKUMA]
What the?
Why does she have to
be this close?
The reason that you came here.
It's because of
Lumachina, isn't it?
Yes. It's true.
The king still has no clue
about what I've done.
No idea that I helped
resurrect Klem.
I was only held responsible
for my absence
during the emergency.
So I'm currently
under confinement.
But give me a chance.
I know I can prove myself
useful to you, Diablo.
I wanna know every
detail you can share.
[TAKUMA] I knew it!
She's a virgin killer!
She makes herself look
wholesome and innocent
so people don't know
they're being hypnotized
by her feminine charms!
Alicia the virgin killer!
Never saw that one coming!
The room got cold.
Where'd you go?
[HORN] Sorry. It just
felt like it was too big.
Yeah, it wasn't comfortable
in there, either.
How 'bout a slumber party?
Sounds fun!
[ALICIA] You know the
Head Cardinal, Vishos?
He's decided to hunt
and slaughter Lumachina.
The mortal races are disgusting.
Even the Church that
claims to believe in God.
[DIABLO]
Naturally, we'll need to
make them pay for their crimes.
Yes. I agree with that.
I can gather evidence of wrong
doings as requested. However.
I doubt they'll be willing
to openly admit guilt.
What do you mean by that?
[ALICIA] The kingdom
is unable to interfere
in the Church's
internal affairs.
Therefore, it won't
be able to sentence
Vishos and the other Cardinals.
Does that make sense?
This is why we need
your power, Diablo.
Huh?
Enact a bloody purge!
Use your magic, Diablo!
Bring the iron hammer
of justice down
upon those villains
in human skin.
Together we can restore
this world to its proper state!
[DIABLO gasps]
And together, we can
bring them to their demise!
Please! I'm begging you!
[TAKUMA] It's official!
This woman is crazy!
Please forgive me
for being so rude.
I will continue doing everything
I can to investigate the Church.
[DIABLO]
Great.
[TAKUMA] I'm frikkin beat.
Time for beddy bye.
Diablo, you're so silly
What? What are you doing?
I apologize. I didn't
mean to wake you.
[DIABLO] Are you letting
your magic recharge?
Yes, sir.
I can recharge
in one of two ways.
Either by relaxing in the
dungeon or here by your side.
Up until now,
I've received my magic
a bit at a time by
staying close to you.
[ROSE]
And finally. Beep, beep!
My charge is currently
at 30 percent.
I highly recommend switching
to low-power mode.
That's the point
I'm at currently.
And why didn't you say
something to me sooner?
The last thing I wanted to do
was burden you with this fact.
So every night,
I'd wait for you to go to bed.
And quietly rest at your side.
Apparently I don't recharge
when you're asleep, though.
[TAKUMA] You've been there
this entire time?
[ROSE]
There is another way.
I I, um
I propose we use
high-speed charging!
What's "high-speed"?
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Well, in just 30
quick minutes of action,
I can recover
a week's energy. [gasps]
No wait. I meant to
say "magic power."
Right. So tell me
what we need to do.
[ROSE]
Um. Sure.
I can receive magic power
from you through contact!
[DIABLO]
Contact? Right.
Where should we do this?
Does the bed work?
I don't think that's
a good idea.
[TAKUMA]
Seriously?
I just asked a girl
to come to bed with me
and she shot me down?
It's just that I'm kind of heavy
and I might break the bed.
[TAKUMA]
Aw geez, that's right.
She's mechanical.
Made of metal.
All right. So then tell me
what you want me to do.
Um, could you give me
a minute? I'm thinking.
What's going on, Rose?
You don't have to do that!
[TAKUMA gasps]
Master, will you
please do me a favor
and charge me like this?
Please bless me with
your magic power.
We're going to make
such a great team.
Rose! Come on.
Is this really
necessary for power?
I don't really know.
I've never done
anything like it before.
I just figured you had.
But I know I'm supposed to
have a part of your body.
You know, like a part that
could make contact with mine.
[TAKUMA] A part?
What the hell is she saying?
Right. Prepare yourself, then.
[TAKUMA]
She's so soft.
Uh, what do I do now?
[TAKUMA]
Maybe touch here? Or here?
[ROSE]
That's it! Wow!
[TAKUMA] I'll just do it
the same way I did
when I poured magic into Rem!
[ROSE gasping]
[DIABLO]
Okay, Rose, you ready?
Here it goes!
[ROSE]
Yes!
[gasps]
My master!
[DIABLO]
Um. Okay? What's wrong?
[ROSE]
Beep, beep.
Charge is currently
at 120 percent.
[TAKUMA] Oh man.
Guess she's all filled up now?
Good for her.
[ALICIA]
Take a look.
These are the records
of the Church's
financial dealings for
these past few years.
And evidence of their
various wrongdoings.
[DIABLO] You gathered
all of this? Please explain.
Bribes work.
I bought off the White Masks
and they seemed
very happy to help.
Bribe? How so?
You know who she's
talking about?
Yes. They're believers
of extraordinary faith
and permitted to
enter the sanctuary.
How did you manage to do that?
[ALICIA]
It was ironically easy.
I told them I had
money to spend on
evidence of bribery and
they quickly complied.
In these documents,
it shows Vishos and others
using the donations from
believers as personal funds.
What's wrong with people?
[ALICIA]
That's not all.
Just as Vishos has
tried to kill Lumachina,
I've discovered that
he has already killed
many who got in their way.
[gasps]
What? That's awful!
Killing is bad!
[LUMACHINA]
I'm sorry, God.
How sad for His own servants to
have taken the lives of others.
How did I not know?
I've failed as a leader.
You've done a great job.
[LUMACHINA]
Not true!
I'm angry. I'm mad. I'm hurt!
And I hate this.
Now, do you understand
why I'm on edge?
The mortal races are
vile and disgusting.
Ruin is the only true
path to their salvation!
This world needs to be
culled by a Demon Lord!
Now bring on the bloody purge--!
[DIABLO]
Stop that!
Ow. Sorry.
The worst part is
that even though
we have all this evidence,
the law is claiming
they cannot punish him.
We need to use
your power, Diablo.
Of course you do.
I'm not surprised.
But I hope you don't expect this
to be the simpler option.
Is it finally time to fight?
You ready to take on the Church?
Yep! They won't
get away with this!
[HORN gasps]
Wait, Diablo sir, don't go yet.
I want to fight
on your side again!
Please consider
giving me another chance.
How would you contribute?
I'll go directly
to the Cathedral.
I'll present all the evidence.
Vishos and his subordinates
will be caught,
and then excommunicated.
[TAKUMA] She still insists
on punishing those jerks
through proper means.
Figures. That's just
the kind of woman she is.
[LUMACHINA]
Diablo, sir?
I approve! Do it
and see what happens!
[ALICIA]
Pardon me, Head Priest,
this is as far as I can go
with you for right now.
But I'd like to ask you
one final question.
I want to know if you believe
the mortal races
are worth saving.
[LUMACHINA] I believe that
that is for God to decide.
But what makes me happy
is when people
are able to live with a sense
of gratitude and salvation.
Their hearts are free.
I understand.
The church is only
six blocks away from the inn.
These are the outfits
worn by believers.
If you wear them,
you should be able to
get close to the sanctuary
without any trouble.
[LUMACHINA]
Once we cross this bridge,
we'll be in
the church's district.
While there's no roof,
it's filled with warmth.
It's as holy of a place
as you'd expect for a cathedral.
Those who live here
and those who work here
are all ardent believers.
[SHERA]
That's the cathedral?
[HORN] It's way less thrilling
than I expected. Amiright?
No, look up.
[ALL gasp]
Whoa, look how huge it is!
It's floating!
Why's it in the sky?
[LUMACHINA] Vishos and
his subordinates are
up there in the clouds, too.
[DIABLO]
How do we get to them?
We'll use the floating passage.
[SANRO]
Pardon me, but are you pilgrims?
Please, allow me to
offer you my prayers.
I'm sorry, we're in a hurry.
[gasps] Are you intentionally
turning down prayers?
[TAKUMA]
What is wrong with me?
I talked to him like he was
one of those annoying salesmen.
[REM] Please forgive me
if this sounds rude.
We've just traveled here from
the old Demon Lord's Domain
and our brains are mushed.
But we're eager for the
next step on our journey.
You did travel quite a long way!
Hey, everyone!
Let's offer prayers
to these believers
who have just returned
from the Demon Lord's Domain.
What a great opportunity for us
to build our faith together!
Go get 'em.
Diablo, sir?
You should know
that to the faithful,
prayers are just as
important as breathing.
[TAKUMA] Time to pack your bags.
We're going on a guilt trip.
It's Vishos.
[MAN 8B]
Look, it's Mister Vishos!
[MAN 8A]
I knew he'd return soon.
Vishos is back.
[VISHOS] Well isn't this a
pleasant surprise. Welcome home.
We've been waiting for you,
Head Priest Lumachina.
What? That woman from earlier
was the Head Priest?
[BELIEVER 8A]
It's the Head Priest!
--[BELIEVER 8A] What a miracle!
--[BELIEVER 8B] The Head Priest!
[LUMACHINA] Vishos,
I paid a visit to Zircon Tower
where someone tried to kill me.
That's absolutely
terrible, dear!
[LUMACHINA]
The man was the Paladin, Gewalt.
Vishos, I know that assassin
was sent by you!
[BELIEVERS gasp]
And now, the carriage behind me
is filled with evidence
I've gathered.
It shows that all of you
have killed many members,
along with financial
records of bribery.
These are punishable actions.
It is my belief that
Head Cardinal Vishos
and every Cardinal
serving under him
are no longer worthy
of membership.
And are therefore
excommunicated.
[BELIEVERS gasp]
[MAN 8A]
Did she say excommunicated?
[MAN 8B]
That's it for Vishos!
[BELIEVER 8A]
I can't believe it!
Well said.
[VISHOS]
How deplorable.
[VISHOS] It looks to me like
the duties of Head Priest
are far too much for
a young, growing woman
who only wants to play.
After abandoning your duties
and engaging in all
manner of debauchery,
you return with questionable
and uninspiring
individuals in tow.
You then waste loads
of time creating piles
of fake evidence as an
attempt to cast us out?
How dare you.
My claims are neither
lies nor embellishments.
Perhaps you should look within--
You can't banish every single
Cardinal from the church!
If that ridiculous demand
were to be honored,
the church would lose
all significance.
It may as well be nonexistent.
The faith built up
by our believers
would lose all meaning!
No matter how great
the cost may be,
you must repent for
the sins you've committed!
You're absolutely right,
Head Priest--
Or should I say
former Head Priest!
[gasps]
[VISHOS]
You've abandoned your duties
and hidden your
whereabouts for so long.
And now, for some reason,
you seek to destroy the
very church that saved you
from your sloth and debauchery!
[LUMACHINA gasps]
How could you?
Do you get this?
Yeah, and nothing
about it's good. Diablo?
[TAKUMA] Lumachina. If you
get emotional now, you'll lose.
Suck it up. You got this.
Stop. Don't cry.
Lumachina Weselia!
We request that you resign
from your position
as Head Priest
and repent for your sin
of abandoning your duty!
But how will I?
Now! Seize this sinner
and her companions!
Wow! There are so many Paladins!
What exactly do we need to do?
My fellow believers,
this is turning into
a great act of faith.
Please remove these
traitors from the premises!
[REM]
Let go of me, you perv!
[SHERA]
Diablo!
No. I can't take this.
I wanna go home!
I don't want to do this,
but I have no choice.
[LUMACHINA]
No, you mustn't.
You lost the debate!
Fighting's all
that's left for us.
Understood.
But we should not bring
hate to a cathedral.
Blood will not be spilled there!
Are you sure about this?
Absolutely.
If it will save the others.
Of course you say that.
Then do it on your own!
Learn to survive
on your own two feet!
Lightning Strike!
[PALADINS gasp]
[DIABLO]
If you don't want to die,
then I suggest you make way!
Thank you for the
prayers you offered.
They meant a lot to me.
May God's blessings be
upon all of you as well.
[VISHOS] Soon even God
will be within my grasp!
[DIABLO] I'll dole out
punishment to those of you
who have lost faith in God!
All of you can face
the same death!
[LUMACHINA] Diablo, sir,
grant us judgment for our sins.
