Overlord (2015) s01e04 Episode Script

Ruler of Death

1 Captain of one of the six scriptures that serves the Six Great Gods, Nigun Grid Lewin of the Sunlit Scripture.
Yes.
Eliminate the strongest warrior of the Re-Estize Kingdom Gazef Stronoff.
This is a treasured item that contains a miracle of the gods.
Use it if you must.
Attention, all units.
Our prey has entered the cage.
Devote your faith to God.
You're right, there are people.
They've surrounded the village in equally spaced intervals.
Who are they exactly? Only the Slane Theocracy could send out this many magic casters at once.
And they're part of the special ops unit directly under the Head Priest.
It must be one of the six scriptures.
They, the ones who attacked earlier They were dressed as soldiers from the Empire, but it looks like they were actually from the Slane Theocracy.
As I thought.
Does this village hold that much value? Sir Gown, if you have no idea why they are attacking then there is only one reason they are attacking this place.
It looks like you are quite despised, Head Warrior.
This is quite a problem.
To think that even the Slane Theocracy is after me But that's an Archangel Flame, right? Why is a monster from Yggdrasil here? Sir Gown.
I'd like to hire you if possible.
I will be sure to reward you as you wish.
I decline.
I see.
Then, please take care, Sir Gown.
Thank you again for saving this village.
I am really, truly grateful.
I know this is a selfish request, but please protect them once more.
I have nothing to give you at this moment, but I beg of you.
I beg There is no need for you to go that far.
I understand.
I will be sure to protect the villagers.
I will put my name, Ains Ooal Gown, on the line.
Then, I will have nothing to worry about.
I will just focus on the enemy before me! Then, please take this.
A gift from one such as you? I will accept it gratefully.
Good-bye.
I wish you luck in battle.
When I first met the humans here, I saw them no more than insects.
But I grow fond as I converse with them, coming to see them as small animals.
Is that why you went as far as promising him with your great name? Perhaps.
Lord Ains.
Why is the head warrior leaving? Their aim is the head warrior.
Th-Then, should we stay here like this?! That is not the case.
We should escape once the head warrior breaks the ring of soldiers.
He will cause a ruckus as he escapes, to make an opening for us.
We will attack the enemy head on! Break through the soldiers and lead the enemy away from the village! After that, continue to retreat! Don't miss the timing! Understood! Go! Cut open their bowels! Head Warrior! I see.
Martial Art.
Focus Battle Aura! Anything goes with magic.
Bastards.
But this is all according to plan.
Sir Gown, I'm depending on you.
Stay by Head Warrior's side until the end! We're the ones who will protect the country and its people! I told you guys to retreat once you grab the enemy's attention! You're all idiots And men I'm truly proud of.
We are at a complete military disadvantage.
Then, the one we have to target is the commander! You're in my way! Martial Art! Six Fold Slash of Light! Martial Art! Instant Counter! Flow Acceleration! We can do it! We can win! Impressive.
To have mastered that many attack skills, but it's not enough.
Summon the next set of angels.
Focus your magical attacks on Stronoff.
This is bad.
Big Sis.
It's all right, Nemu.
Finish him off.
However, don't attack with just one.
Make sure to ensure his death with multiple angels.
Don't underestimate me! I am the Kingdom's head warrior! I am one who loves and protects this country! There is no way I'd lose to bastards who want to dirty this kingdom! You will die here precisely because you spout such nonsense.
Gazef Stronoff, what can you do in that state? Once we kill you, we will massacre the villagers.
Stop this futile resistance and fall quietly.
As an act of mercy, I will make sure your death is painless.
What's so funny? What a fool.
There is someone stronger than I in that village.
A bluff? Angels.
Kill Stronoff.
Looks like it's almost time to switch.
Th-This is? This is the village storage house.
Lord Ains has set a magic barrier here.
Where is Sir Gown? Well, he suddenly disappeared and you appeared in his place.
I see.
Who are you? Nice to meet you, people of the Slane Theocracy.
My name is Ains Ooal Gown.
Please call me Ains.
I have a bit of a relationship with that village.
Have you come to beg for the lives of the villagers? No, no.
Actually I overheard your conversation with the head warrior.
You really have a lot of balls.
You announced that you'll massacre the villagers that I bothered saving.
I cannot imagine anything more offensive.
Offensive?! Big words, magic caster.
So, what will you do about it? Offer your life to me without resistance.
If you do so, there will be no pain.
However, if you refuse you will die painfully and in despair for your foolishness.
Have the angels attack! How pathetic.
This is what happens when you make stupid bluffs.
Didn't I tell you? "Offer your life to me without resistance.
" Don't you know it's important to listen to the warnings of others? Impossible! It must be some kind of trick! High Tiered Physical Nullification.
It's a passive kill that completely nullifies the physical attacks of low-leveled weapons and monsters.
So they really are the Archangel Flames from Yggdrasil.
I want to know why you all can use the same magic and summons as Yggdrasil but I'll put that aside for now.
It's my turn now.
Here I come! This is a massacre.
Have all the angels attack at once! Hurry! Albedo, stand back.
Yes.
Negative Burst! Wha—?! Impos sible There is someone stronger than I in that village.
Wha—?! M-Monster! Holy Ray! Poison! Shockwave! Fire Rain! Confusion! Charge of Stalagmite! Open Wounds! Fire! Blindness! Word of Curse! As I thought, these are all spells from Yggdrasil.
Who taught you that magic?! What happened? Albedo.
You should know that such aerial weapons would do me no harm.
There was no need for you to use your strength.
Please wait, Lord Ains.
There is a bare minimum that must be met to fight with you, Supreme One.
To throw such a small and insignificant pebble at you If you say that, these insects themselves fail to pass.
Right? Principality of Observation! Attack! My, my.
I guess I should fight back.
Hell Flame.
One hit? That's impossible! There's no way a high level angel could be destroyed with one spell! Captain Nigun! What should we do? We will summon the highest level angel! That's Based on how it glows, that's a sealing crystal that can seal any magic other than top tier spells.
So they even have Yggdrasil items.
Albedo, use your skill to protect me.
Yes! Look, the shining form of the highest of angels! Dominion Authority! This angel is your strongest trump card? That's right.
I have determined that you are worthy enough to use this item.
I'm speechless.
Are you afraid? It cannot be helped.
This is stupid.
What?! I was on guard against such child's play? Child's play? What are you saying? I-It can't be No, it's impossible! In front of an existence which mankind cannot defeat You're bluffing! Use Holy Smite! This is seventh tier magic that no man can go against.
Taste the power that annihilates demons, the judgment of God! So this is what it feels like to take damage! This is pain! Y— You— You lower life forms!!! Lord Ains! To the one I-I love so deeply! To cause him pain! Know your place, you piece of trash! It's fine, Albedo.
B-But, Lord Ains.
It's fine.
Aside from the surprising weakness of the angels, everything is going as planned.
It's my turn now.
Know despair! Black Hole! A power that surpasses devil.
Who in the world are you? Ains Ooal Gown.
In the past, there was no one who did not know this name.
Wh-What was that? It seems someone was watching you from afar, using information magic.
My counterattacking defense barrier activated so they must not have seen much.
My country was watching me? Enough playing around.
W-W-W-W-Wait a second! Sir Ains Ooal Gown.
No, Lord! All of us No, I alone am enough! If you spare my life, I will give you whatever r-reward you wish! You are mistaken.
Lower life forms such as humans should bow their head in wait and be thankful when their lives are taken.
Lower life forms?! If I remember correctly "Stop this futile resistance and fall quietly.
" "As an act of mercy, I will make sure your death is painless.
" I wonder if my actions were acceptable as the Lord of Nazarick? Shit.
So freaking cool, Lord Ains! What's wrong, Albedo? No, it's nothing.
But, Lord Ains, why did you save that human? You even gave him such an important item.
It was a useless item from the 500 yen gacha machine, though.
I could have gone in your place.
There was no need to personally save a lower life form, Lord Ains.
I know your strength and trust you, Albedo.
However, until we know more about this world, we must always move forward believing the enemy is stronger than us.
So that's why you used that man as a pawn.
I believe your use of humans is impeccable.
However, wasn't taking on the angel's blade a bad move? You think so? Even if I know that you'll come out unscathed, is there any woman who can tolerate a blade harming the one they love? Oh.
Yes.
Let's go back, to our home.
Yes, Lord Ains.
First, I apologize for moving on my own.
Albedo will tell you all that has happened.
However, there is one thing I must say immediately.
Greater Break Item! I have changed my name.
From now on, my name is Ains Ooal Gown.
You shall call me Ains! If you have any objections, stand and voice them now! We have heard your precious name.
We devote absolute loyalty to our venerable leader.
Hail Lord Ains Ooal Gown! We shall give ourselves completely to the Supreme One! To the most powerful king.
Everyone in this world will know of your greatness.
The one who rules over all, our king.
Glory to the Overlord, the ruler of death! This is an absolute order! Make Ains Ooal Gown an eternal legend! The land, sky, and sea.
I will spread the name of Ains Ooal Gown to all intelligent creatures.
So that my name will reach friends that may have come to this world.
Demiurge.
Tell everyone your conversation with Lord Ains.
As Lord Ains gazed at the night sky, he told me this.
"I may have come to this land to obtain this untouched box of treasures.
" And in the end, he said this.
"Taking over the world might be enjoyable.
" Everyone.
Know that the final goal of the Great Tomb of Nazarick is to present this world, this box of treasures, to Lord Ains!
