I Was Reincarnated as the 7th Prince So I Can Take My Time Perfecting My Magical Ability (2024) s01e01 Episode Script

I Reincarnated as the Seventh Prince

1
I'll gift you something
for your death, commoner.
Try firing your magic at me.
What weak sorcery.
In the end, he's a commoner.
The most important things
as a sorcerer are
lineage, aptitude, and effort.
So said the Father of Sorcery,
William Bordeaux.
Don't get me wrong.
Effort is the main prerequisite.
Which means, no matter
how much effort you give,
without any bloodline or aptitude,
a commoner like you
has no chance to be blessed with sorcery!
Ah This is just
So terribly
Magnificent!
This is the magic of
a noble blessed by it!
It's hot! It hurts!
It's beautiful!
Marvelous!
If I could have just one wish,
I want more
I wanted to learn more!
I wanted to perfect it!
The sorcery!
Who are you?
Where am I?
Giants?
I must ward them off!
Oh, right, fireball!
Huh? My hand is so tiny, though
Hot news! Hot news!
The seventh prince of Saloum Kingdom,
Prince Lloyd has been born!
Time to celebrate! Let's celebrate!
Yes! Thank you as always. Here you go.
Prince!
Where are you?
He doesn't seem to be here.
Let's search over there.
They're gone.
Prince Lloyd!
Shush!
Sorry, but keep my location
secret from the maids, okay?
I understand.
It's a secret between us now.
Then, why don't we go for a hunt?
As a royal, it's good
to enjoy a hunt or two
Ah! Prince Lloyd!
He got away again.
Well, that's just how
the Seventh Prince is.
The Seventh Prince is way younger
than his brothers,
he's too far from the throne.
Gaining his favor won't mean much
Don't be stupid.
Right after birth, he understands words.
Instead of picture books,
he reads sorcery tomes.
The sight of him refusing to be breastfed
is the ultimate display of royal virtue!
And more than anything,
I believe
Prince Lloyd is the reincarnation
of The Great William Bordeaux!
The Father of Sorcery?
That's impossible.
That's right! I am a reincarnated person!
But my past life is just
a Saloum commoner though
Prince Lloyd! Where are you?
I don't know why my memories are intact.
Nor why I was reincarnated to the
privileged position as the Seventh Prince.
However
I don't care about the throne or fame.
My stance is still the same as in my past.
Which means,
all I care about is if this royal palace
has enough sorcery to entertain me!
That's my only interest!
It's an amazing library as always!
The Magic Academy of Saloum
can't even compare to this!
I finally found you, Prince Lloyd.
Sylpha
A Seventh Prince
with no chance at the throne
has no need for sword training.
The throne is not everything.
As a royal family member,
sword skills is paramount.
I've been assigned as
your tutor for three years.
It has now already become
my reason to live.
If I slack off, Sylpha's training
may last until dark.
Let's begin.
Magnificent.
You are getting stronger day by day.
Well, of course.
Sylpha always goes easy on me.
Moreover, right now I'm tracing Sylpha's
movements with control-class spell.
For Sylpha, it's like
fighting against a mirror.
So, I'm cheating!
I want to read books soon!
That said, in terms of strength,
stamina, and height
Even if I mimic her ability, these gaps
always get me and I end up losing.
So this time I'm experimenting,
so that those gaps
can be bridged by even more cheating!
Biotic Growth! Physical Enhancement!
Levitation.
Gap amended. Now I can counter her.
And during the match
against the reflection,
if the enemy in the mirror
makes a different move
What will you do? Tracing deactivated!
Forgive me, Sylpha!
I want to hurry and read books!
Prince Lloyd, you're cheating, right?
Gulp!
It's impossible for me to miss
the change in your distance.
Extending your reach by growing the sword
and using levitation
to cover the height gap.
Just like that. So that you can
stand at the same height as me.
Oh, how endearing!
And such amazing talent!
Using two spells
at the same time like that!
Even the royal palace sorcerers
have difficulty doing that!
But you don't have to grow so fast.
I won't go anywhere
She didn't find out about my control-class
spell and physical enhancement
I actually used four spells at once.
Let's not say a word!
-This feels great.
-I feel so refreshed.
I've said it before!
I can bathe by myself!
I won't allow you.
If I let my eyes off you,
you will not bathe and go read books.
That's a no-no.
How did it turn out like this?
I only want to research magic!
Naughty children who don't listen
will be eaten by
the Demon of the Forbidden Tomes.
Demon of Forbidden Tomes?
A long time ago, a demon pushed
Saloum to the brink of destruction.
And with the sacrifice
of numerous sorcerers,
the demon was finally sealed.
The name is Grimoire!
Oh, is that tome the one rumored
to be sealed in the Forbidden Archives
in the palace's basement?
-Right!
-That's the one!
Isn't that just a tale?
Even if true, what can a sealed demon do
Shush!
That's silly.
Prince Lloyd won't be scared
by such a silly story
He's scared!
So cute!
Ah, then why don't you sleep
in my bed with me tonight?
Don't be stupid!
That's my role as Prince Lloyd's tutor!
No! I will do that!
Then take the middle ground
by sleeping at the maid dormitory!
The palace's basement?
Forbidden Tome?
It must be over there.
Air-class spell, Concealment.
By controlling the air current
and changing the light reflection,
this magic can conceal one's body.
Hey! Don't let your guard down!
At the sealed archives beyond here,
along with forbidden tomes
that can endanger the kingdom,
a demon with enormous magic
is also sealed there.
That sounds promising!
Forgive my wording,
I can't think of anyone who can
get past this much security.
Well, even if someone managed
to get to the sealed archive,
the archive's door is protected
by the strongest barrier
cast by ten sorcerers.
I've lived in this castle for ten years,
but I had no idea there's an exciting
place like this in the basement!
Moreover! This is one is Oh my!
I see, I see! Wow!
Wonderful! I should just redo the barrier
and check all of this slowly.
You did well in destroying
the door barrier, little boy!
Who are you?
Man, there sure are
amazing kids these days!
My name is Grimoire! Tell me yours.
Lloyd.
I see, Lloyd!
Would you remove my seal next?
So, he is the Demon of Forbidden Tome.
Look, my seal will break sooner or later.
It's already falling apart.
It will break eventually.
Here, I will give you
as much gold as you want.
How about it? As much as you want!
No matter how much, I'll give you!
This is a low-level Creation Spell.
Were you only turning stones into gold?
What?
The purity is so low
and it's hollow inside.
Also, I'll redo the seal.
Huh?
This kingdom is my base for magic
research, so I can't just release
a demon who threatens it.
The ones who sealed me are people
from hundreds of years past,
I bear no ill will to the present ones.
-I can't trust you.
-Then
Then, I will teach you old magic!
Old magic that's been forgotten
hundreds of years ago!
Oh, but I guess you are
not interested in it.
Old magic?
Oh, it works?
Will you please teach me?
I will.
After all, it seems you're brimming
with magical aptitude.
Without any bloodline and aptitude,
a commoner like you
has no chance to be blessed with sorcery
You're right.
If the magic quality depends
on bloodline and aptitude,
then without a doubt, this body is blessed
more than that of a commoner.
Right, right! Sure is!
Such confidence you have there.
Hurrah!
Are you serious? He really broke the seal!
Hey, hey. Now hurry
Sure, old magic, right?
Yep, yep!
That's Arctis Obscura.
Are you learning yet?
Now then, what shall I do now?
What?
That's great!
What an unusual mana signature.
The structure, manifestation, and even
mode of activation are unique!
Hey, could you show me a bit more?
How dare you underestimate me?
What's with that super sturdy barrier?
My Arctis Obscura bombardment
does nothing about it!
It looks like a simple mana blast.
Interesting!
Ah! Look at this sorcery!
I want to know its effect
through my own body!
It's my bad habit. I might die again
What?
I see! How intriguing!
So that's how it is constructed!
It hurts, yet is so beautiful.
Give me another one, Grimoire.
You little twerp!
I'll crush you! Make it darker and darker!
Dual Incantation?
Pierce and bore into him, my sword!
Arctis Obscura Forta!
Interesting!
For incantation, usually it's impossible
to chant two spells simultaneously.
It's a unique technique for demons,
who can make two heads.
He weaves two mana signatures
and activates them as a single spell.
Well, in essence, it's like an advanced
form of that dark-whatever thingy
Huh?
Impossible!
That is my most destructive spell!
Yes, it's such a good spell!
Learning it has got to be so fun.
Carving countless
mana signatures into your body,
abusing your magical ability,
and entirely preserving the knowledge!
That's awesome!
That kid's ridiculous!
I won't mess with him!
What? What's this?
It's a barrier.
There's a palace above us,
so I can't be too careful.
Just how many barriers did he make?
Did you think I would run away?
No, no. Of course not.
In the past, I did a bit of an oopsie,
so I have to be careful.
Quit yapping nonsense!
Oh, I have enough of that.
-Huh?
-I said I know that already.
For the next one
Show me a defensive spell!
Infernal Fireball!
What's up with that insane amount of mana!
Why didn't you defend yourself?
Just who the heck is this little brat?
You could return
the ransacked room completely!
You're amazing, Master Lloyd!
Master Lloyd?
This is my first time meeting
a sorcerer as amazing as you are!
The amazing one is you, Grimoire.
A demon can't die by magic, right?
Yeah, but it still hurts quite a bit.
How far could you stand it, I wonder?
No, no! Wait a second there!
I give up!
I, Grimoire, hereby pledge
my loyalty to you!
Please make me your familiar!
Familiar?
Sure thing.
I feel like he sees me as a lab animal.
But that form will attract
too much attention.
-Can't you be smaller?
-I sure can!
How's this, twerp?
My changed form is super cute, right?
If I can't win by force,
I'll seduce him and then kill him!
Here, get inside my clothes.
Eh? Are you sure I can be
that close to you right away?
Sure.
This boy is an idiot!
If I can get that close,
I can control his mind
and then command his entire body!
How can his mana be this dense?
I can't even stick a finger in it.
He's a mana monster!
This isn't human!
What's wrong? Are you cold?
You're shivering.
I'm all right! Please just call me Grim!
Okay! Let's get along, Grim.
I better be quiet for a while now.
All right! Let's read them all out!
My name is Grimoire!
Being this kid's familiar
is just a disguise.
Watch me
on the day I get all my power back!
