Hey, watch it! Be careful where you go!
I-I'm terribly sorry, Miss Luna!
Do you think it's funny if I bruise my butt before subduing this Demon Lord?
I-Is this even a good idea without the other Holy Maidens?
Excuse me? Are you saying it's too much for me to handle?
Y-You're more than enough on your own, Miss Luna.
Hmph! Of course I am.
I can't let my sisters show me up forever, you know.
"Luna Elegant" "16 years old"
Open your eyes
Dwelling in the eyes of that majestic figure are wishes
Let's sing to the sleepless night
Dramatically pull everything in, even light and darkness
In order to smile again tomorrow, unafraid
I learned that true kindness is actually solitude after looking at you
I wanted to get closer to your heart and yet it's still so far away
No matter what fate gets in my way, I'll face it head on
With the bravery I chose with you, let's flap our wings and fly
My heart is trembling with the hope that I found
Resounding inside me move my heart
Lurking behind my hidden true motives
With a stronger gaze than anyone else
Dwelling in the eyes of that majestic figure are wishes
Let's sing to the sleepless night
Dramatically pull everything in, even light and darkness
In order to smile again tomorrow, unafraid
Let's begin
Open your eyes
"Golden Luna"
Reporting in! The Holy Maiden, Luna Elegant,
is approaching on the road with an escort of some 20 troops!
What? Has she come to subjugate us at last?
It's such an honor for a Holy Maiden to come deal with us herself.
"Chief of the Moles"
We'll have to face her head on.
N-No, it doesn't seem like her target is us Moles...
Oh?
"Demon Lord" "Hakuto Kunai" Girl cast out as a sacrifice" "Aku"
It's getting dark pretty quickly now.
You're right. Shall we camp out here tonight?
Huh? You mean right here?
Fragment of my intelligence, come forth!
Survival Goods!
"Survival Goods"
Whoa!
There is no end to my darkness! Defense Goods!
"Defense Goods"
Whoa!
Alone, they don't achieve very much, but...
Item Combine! Construct Base!
"Base"
I-Incredible! Was that magic just now?
You're so incredible, Demon Lord!
This baby can withstand attacks from even a rocket launcher.
You're as good as dead in Infinity Game unless you camp out like this.
I-Is that right? Not that I understand what you're saying...
I'm just saying it's pretty sturdy.
Aku, we're sleeping in this base tonight.
I'm a delicate guy, so there's no way I'm camping under the stars.
Okay! Leave the house chores to me!
This is...?
Go on. Give your weary body a wash.
H-Hold on. I can't use something like this...
Sorry it's cramped, but this is the best I can do for now.
Th-That's not what I...
Just you wait and see. I'll construct a hot spring resort someday.
You're going to love every minute of it.
I wonder what a hot spring resort is anyways?
Seems like this world has a moon too...
If I gather enough skill points to unlock administrator privileges,
can I return back to my world?
Though, that whole system is based off of Infinity Game .
No such "return to my world" command even exists.
If being summoned by that idol is what brought me here,
the only way to return must be to seek out something with similar power.
Let's hope I find a clue in the Holy Capital.
But even if I went back, would I still have the same life?
Is there still a place for me at work?
I bet my manager's furious...
Demon Lord, I washed my body with that shabon again.
Mmm, you do smell pretty good now.
R-Really?!
That's the first time someone's told me that in my life!
You... want to sleep together?
Is that a no?
I know you think I'm some old guy or something,
but the truth is, I'm more like an older brother. I'm no old man.
Demon Lord? I don't understand what you're talking about...
Bring it on, Holy Maiden and friends.
Us bandits, the Moles, silence even crying babies.
None slip under our noses.
Who in the world are those two?
What do we do, Chief?
Hmm, must be bait.
The moment we attack them,
the Holy Maiden and her crew will jump out and ambush us.
Should we do nothing and let them go?
No, we'll get 'em. A quick attack and a quick retreat.
Draw the Holy Maiden into unfamiliar terrain.
These guys are a joke.
I'll turn off my intercept and auto attack abilities just in case...
Aku, stand back.
Huh?
I guess I should just take this attack.
"Assault Barrier"
Hmph, under level 30? How weak.
In Infinity Game , only players at the max level of 30 were able to...
...inflict any sort of damage to Kunai, but...
How about we skip the hide-and-seek and you show yourself?
You're pretty tough.
I'm the Chief of the Moles, O Wengoal.
And you are?
Huh? My manager? What in the world is he doing here?
Sorry about not showing up to work, Mr. Senmu.
Shenmue, you said?
Shenmue... Shenmue, huh? That takes me back...
What are you talking about?
Uh, wait... Aren't you Aoki Senmu?
Hmph. Are you trying to confuse me or something?
That won't work on me.
No, that wasn't my intention, but...
What a crazy resemblance. Man, do they look alike...
By that trick you conjured up just now, I take it you're a magic user?
I've no obligation to answer.
Take us lightly and you'll get hurt.
Got it, old man?
Wh-Who you calling an old man?! You're more an old man than me!
A-Are you kidding me?! If anyone here has an old man face, it's you!
--It's not my fault you were born that way, idiot! --I'll give you an old man face!
--Old man?! Don't make me laugh! --Who do you think you are?! You're the one who's an idiot!
Demon Lord, let's run!
Demon Lord, you say? Someone like you?
Go pretend you're a Demon Lord on the other side!
I-I knew he had to be a magic user!
What was that about magic?
Wh-What the...?
To think I'd come Demon Lord hunting and find a bunch of filthy bandits.
Tsk, the plan is falling apart... Guys, pull back!
How stupid can you be?
You think you can get away from me?
Be torn asunder by gold! Gold Slash!
"Gold Blade" "Gold Slash"
Ow... My Assault Barrier never activated...
This kid is max level?
To be honest, I wasn't expecting that much out of you.
Excuse me?! What did you just say?!
Anyways, do I not get an apology for you attacking me out of nowhere?
Hmph! A Holy Maiden dispatching evil is just plain common sense.
All right, then. Those will be your last words.
Hmph. It seems you don't know who I am.
I'm one of the three Holy Maidens. The Golden Luna Elegant.
This kid shooting off magic like a maniac is named Elegant?
Way to not live up to the name.
You guys, go capture this blockhead at once!
Yes, ma'am!
Unfortunately, you all have no business standing in front of me.
Who in the world is this guy?
H-Hey! What do you think you're doing?
I don't hold back on those who attack me, even if they happen to be women.
Huh? Wait! No, don't! What are you doing?!
That hurt!
That hurts!
The butt! Not the butt!
That was my right hand! This is my left hand!
And now let's go back to the right hand!
And this one's because I'm kinda enjoying this!
S-Stop!
"Luna Elegant" "Race: Human" "Sex: Female" "Age: 16" "Height: 153cm"
"Mild Heaven" "Race: Tobacco" "Sex: None" "Age: None" "Height: 8cm"
That was a good workout.
I-I wonder if the Holy Maiden's butt will be all right?
It's already had a split in it. She'll be fine.
Th-That's not the problem here...
Now then. Now that we've got all this money, how about we stay in a city?
I'll kill that guy! You just wait and see!
You stupid coachman! Go a little slower! It stings my butt!
"Kingdom of Holy Light" "Market City Yahoo"
The naming sense of this kingdom is truly something awful.
You think so?
Let's buy some random stuff with all this money we've got.
But that's the Holy Maiden's money, isn't it?
I was acting in self-defense.
In fact, you could say I was being extra kind and lenient.
If this were an eroge , we'd be heading for a sex slave route.
What's an eroge ?
How much?
It's three copper for two skewers.
Thank you.
Come again!
U-Um...
It's my treat today. Just eat it and enjoy.
I've never eaten something this tasty before!
"Gugule Inn"
This place has one terrible name after another...
Really? I think it's a cute name though.
Welcome.
I'd like the best room you've got.
If you'd like to stay in our best room, it would cost one gold coin.
What?! We shouldn't, Demon Lord!
D-Demon...?
No, you see... My name is De Mon.
Sorry to confuse you like that.
Then, if you please.
V-Very well, Sir. I'll go prepare it at once.
"Message"
Don't call me Demon Lord in front of people!
Call me your older brother or something.
Wh-What about if I called you Papa?
But I'm still a spunky bachelor!
Please, make yourselves at home and enjoy the room.
Not a bad view, is it?
To be honest, I'm surprised at how luxurious this place actually is.
Then again, I've got to keep acting cool around Aku.
A-Amazing! It's like we're staying in a noble's estate!
Don't get too excited over this.
Someday I'll build a castle befitting of my greatness.
C-Castle?
I don't know what you mean, but it sure sounds great!
Now then, how about we go out and have a nice dinner tonight?
But... before that...
"Boutique" "Fashion Check"
Dear me. That's one shabby outfit she's wearing...
Perhaps she's this man's servant or something?
Welcome! May I ask what you're looking for today?
Sorry, but could you find an outfit that looks good on her?
I'm not that great at picking out clothes for people.
I'd like to leave that to a pro.
This one looks like the biggest...
Using this guy.
What?!
Demon Lo--
G-Giant gold coin?! Y-You want to pick something with that?
Is it not enough?
D-Don't be silly! I-I'll prepare something for you at once!
This way please, Ma'am.
U-Um...
I'd like to smoke, but where are your ashtrays?
Use my hands! Please, feel free to dispose of your ash on my hands!
Th-That's quite all right.
Have any normal ashtrays and a place to sit?
Use my back! Please, come and sit down on my back!
What the hell? This store is scary...
S-Sorry to make you wait.
U-Um, do you think this looks good on me?
Ooh! I knew she'd shine with a bit of polish, but...
To think she would change this much...
Y-Yeah...
Whoa... Aku had different-colored eyes?
I wonder if that's a subject better to avoid though?
Hmm?
I could bring other outfits to try if you would like.
Would you be interested in that?
Let's see... I'll take everything that suits her.
D-Did you say everything?!
I'll buy it all.
Hurry up! Bring only the best clothes for this lady!
I wonder if they're father and daughter.
They don't seem like that to me.
He must own a great plot of land somewhere...
I heard he paid for her outfit with a giant gold coin without batting an eye.
Oho! That's the wine all the connoisseurs always order.
Seems like he's a man of good taste.
This feels so much like a dream.
Hmm?
I have to thank you... For doing all this for someone like me...
Don't worry about it. Let's eat before it gets cold.
I do worry about it.
Why are you always being so nice to me?
Now that you mention it, I wonder what makes me go so far for her.
Please, tell me. Is there anything I can possibly do to pay you back?
Anything you want! As long as it's something I can do, I'll do it!
You said you'll do anything I want?
I found you, Demon Lord!
D-Demon Lord?!
I wonder if she's talking about that man.
Who said you could eat with my money?! Are you stupid? Wanna die?!
What an odd thing to say.
Wasn't that the money you offered to me as an apology?
Because if I hadn't done that, you wouldn't have stopped hitting my butt!
Let's not get all wound up. Come and sit down with us.
We wouldn't want to bother the other guests.
Give me one good reason I should listen to you!
Do you... want to be disciplined again?
I'm glad to see you can be reasonable.
Everyone, I apologize for causing that commotion.
Allow me to make up for it by treating each table to a bottle of wine.
Oh, my, how generous!
What an admirable fellow.
Bring some food for the lady too.
It's my treat. Have as much as you'd like.
You idiot! More like it's my treat!
Um, I'm so sorry, Holy Maiden.
Demon Lord isn't a bad person, you know.
Are you stupid?
There's no such thing as a good Demon Lord!
I guess you can be very kind sometimes but also pretty mean too.
I always act like a gentleman.
It's just that I choose who to treat nicely.
Jeez...
The Holy Maiden is a very important person, Demon Lord.
I can't exactly carry her on my back or shoulders with a dress.
I changed my mind... You're very kind...
Hmm?
Idiot! I've got no money to stay anywhere thanks to you!
Can't you just camp somewhere?
What happened to your troupe, Teary-eyed Luna?
I sent them all home!
And why would you do that?
B-Because! I didn't want to put them in any more danger!
So you decided to come and play?
Th-That's not what I'm saying!
Demon Lord! Could you please be a little nicer to the Holy Maiden?
All right then... Here.
What is it? Something else that you want?
S-So be it! I'll let you two stay in this room with me!
Is your head on straight?
Y-You got the room with my money, right?
It's only proper that I'm allowed to sleep in it!
I think she's got you there, Demon Lord.
Sister! We've almost reached the city!
How dare that shitty brat cause me all this trouble.
"I wish I could go back"
Is what someone said
But I don't have a past
For eternity
That nothing would change
Is what I thought
Over and over
Rubbing my eyes to make sure
I'm overwhelmed by emotion
Like a lie Bright! Still locked up
Hiding what I couldn't give up
That miracle lit up by my heart
Not sought out, not doubted
But still you believed
As if to teach me
RE NEW ME Now that I'm laughing with you
I can embrace it all
Once again
Shenmue... Shenmue, huh?
That takes me back. An open world in a time like that was amazing.
With motion capture and full-voiced NPCs in the city too...
Not to mention the game had a full day cycle.
That was so sick! It's making me wanna play it again...
Demon Lord, I have no idea what you're talking about.
Next time: Demon Lord, Retry Episode 3. Killer Queen.
"Killer Queen"
