Ryousuke-san...
Quele, wait!
Do you not like me?
That's not it...
But what's gotten into you all of a sudden?
It's not sudden at all!
I've always liked you.
I've wanted to give you my first time.
First time?
But I'm...
I'll heal you!
Episode 8: Rival, Sways
Lisara's alone?
Yes, Kaga Ryousuke is currently
being sheltered by the Restall Family.
The Restall Family...
That's troublesome.
But very well.
We need Lisara to cancel out her contract
with Kaga Ryousuke.
As planned, lead Lisara to the designated point.
Understood.
Iria.
L-Lisara!
How many enemies are there?
I don't feel any nearby,
but it'd be dangerous to just take the level ground from here.
It might be a bit of a detour this way,
but let's cut through the forest and meet up with the Restall army.
Y-Yeah.
It's best to be cautious.
We don't know what could happen to either of us.
Q-Quele...
Stop it.
I won't stop!
Ryousuke-san.
I want you...
To be more passionate!
I want you to be the normal pervy Ryousuke-san you were before!
Q-Quele...
Quele...
Is this not enough, Ryousuke-san?
Ryousuke-san?
What? Why?
Sorry.
Let's stop this, Quele.
I mean, there's nothing wrong with you.
But right now I don't think I could be...
With anyone...
But... But... That's a problem!
If I don't get you back to normal, I'll...
While we're doing this, Onee-sama is...
Lisara?
What's going on with Lisara?!
Quele!
You're sure the Restall army is this way, right, Lisara?
Hey, Iria.
Do you remember this forest?
We used this forest for our practicals during Training School.
We'd fight against monsters, practice magic.
What about it?
I used Disrad for the first time here, too!
Everything you wore back then
made it obvious that you were from the countryside.
You looked so uncool.
What the hell?
Are you trying to pick a fight?!
But then you quickly caught up to everyone else.
You definitely had me beat on will-power back then.
I was always trying hard to make sure you couldn't beat me.
Huh?
I'm saying this because we're here now,
but I might have been
number one because you were there.
Lisara...
Let's go, Iria!
What?
Lisara and Iria went by themselves?
Why did you let them go?!
Why didn't you say anything?!
Why? I, uh...
Quele...
Quele, did you want to help Lisara out,
and that's why you're here with me?
I mean... I mean...
If something happened to
Onee-sama while I was just sitting here...
I'd...
Lisara...
Thank you, Quele.
You were trying to do so much...
I shouldn't really
just be sitting here doing nothing.
But...
I understand how you feel.
I'm fine now!
What? You want to infiltrate the Tours-Soleil?
Not happening. It's way too dangerous.
It's fine. Iria found us a route in.
So please help us out!
Lisara-sama...
Understood. We'll do a feint.
We'll draw the enemy's attention and split them off.
During that time, the two of you can get into the Tours-Soleil.
Thank you!
But please make sure you don't do anything rash.
Come back safe and sound.
All right, prepare to move out!
We're going to attack!
I'm scared.
I'm really scared, Ryou-chan.
No, I have to pull myself together.
If I stay here, Ryou-chan will definitely come to save me.
I can't have Ryou-chan be put in danger for me.
The attack from the Restall Army has started.
So they're here.
Give them a warm welcome.
Lisara, hurry up!
Am I going to die?
Yeah, I got it.
Women are treasures!
I'll keep treasuring them and keeping them safe!
Ryou-chan...
I wasn't able to be that special person for you...
But I still love you...
I love you, Ryou-chan!
What?
That's...
What's going on?
I've never seen energy that powerful.
We'll have to check it out, then.
This way!
Reporting.
Go ahead.
It seems that the human woman
we were holding escaped from her room.
What was that?
It's possible the energy we're seeing now
might have something to do with that.
What's...
Ookura Mina.
I see.
So she's...
Have soldiers go and capture her!
Don't let her get away under any circumstances!
Quele, what was that?
I don't know.
Maybe something happened to Mina-san or Onee-sama!
This is bad!
Let's hurry!
Where are you going, Ryousuke-san?
A-Auntie.
Quele, I don't remember asking you
to take care of Ryousuke-san.
I believe I told you we should wait here patiently
for Lisara's return.
Those who disobey Almeia-sama...
Will be punished.
No! Stay away!
Ryousuke-san.
Let's go back to the manor.
N-No! We can't just sit here!
The two of them went off to fight Galdarblog alone!
That's exactly why.
Huh?
That's why we have to go back inside.
What do you mean?
Do you not understand?
There's no question that Galdarblog is after your Graham.
The legendary sword will fall into enemy hands.
We have to prevent that from happening no matter what.
That's why Lisara didn't say anything to you and left the manor.
This was the obvious course of action
made by the next head of the Restall Family.
Obvious?
Over there!
If we get through that room,
the security shouldn't be too tight.
Thank you, Iria.
Huh?
Sorry for making you come with me this far.
I'm grateful to have you.
Lisara...
What's going on, Iria?!
If Galdarblog-sama is able to seize control,
the Restall family is as good as finished.
Employees should just do whatever the company tells them to do.
I'll follow any orders...
Iria?!
Awaken, Calnoon Pradul!
They're...
And you're fine with that, Almeia-san?
You're not worried about Lisara?!
Lisara's your daughter!
How would you feel if something
happened to Lisara while we were just sitting here waiting?!
Lisara's already prepared for that.
She serves the royal family and keeps order here in Grimwald.
That is the mission given to the Restall Family.
Being the heir to the Restall Family
requires you to uphold such a grand name.
It is because I'm a mother,
I cannot overlook the sacrifice she's willing to make.
Lisara's desires are my desires.
She wishes for you to stay here.
If you care about Lisara, then...
For Lisara?
Don't hate me for this, Lisara.
I had no choice but to do this.
Yes, this is for the best.
You're basically just some princess sitting in her glass tower.
You didn't doubt me at all, and trusted me blindly.
And if Galdarblog wins because of this,
the Restall Family will be over.
The time when I can surpass Lisara will finally come.
The mission given to the Restall Family...
The next head of the family...
I see.
Lisara was always trying to fill big shoes.
And instead I...
But...
I'm saying this because we're here now,
but I might have been number one because you were there.
Thank you, Iria.
I'm grateful to have you.
Lisara?!
Do you still not understand?
If you went there now,
you'd basically be handing the enemy Graham.
You cannot go!
See!
Take a look.
It's fine.
I've had the wrong idea this whole time,
but I finally understand.
I was able to get the power
I have now because Lisara was there.
If Lisara's by my side,
and if I have the desire to protect her,
I'm sure Graham will respond to that.
If Lisara and I become one,
I'm sure I can use Graham's true power!
Th-That's....
S-So that's the legendary treasure.
Ryousuke-san!
Now let's get going!
Almeia-sama!
Help us get down.
Stop it already!
Iria!
Flotty!
Who cares about Merlot?!
Who cares about Galdarblog?!
If I lose my wonderful rival like this,
I'm just going to regret it for the rest of my life!
How long are you going to sit there?!
What the hell?
I didn't really need you to save me.
Go forth and reap, Calnoon Pradul!
That's my Lisara.
I'll settle things with you myself.
I'll take care of things here, so keep going!
Don't you go dying here, either!
Galdarblog...
Where are you keeping Mina?!
Almeia-sama...
Let us believe, as well.
Let us believe that this man is our true hero.
Wait for me, I'm coming for you now!
Lisara, Mina!
That there was a good story!
No, to have a good story,
you need to have perviness overflowing from every crevice.
Next time, we'll need to have an explosion of perviness
in the middle of our battles.
A perv-royale, if you will!
My Kingdom Standing Tall
You're such an idjit!
