Let This Grieving Soul Retire (嘆きの亡霊は引退したい)

Looks like the town of Suls

has been completely taken over by the Barrel bandit gang.

I do have to admit that I'm impressed by the speed and initiative

that they unleashed in a flash.

Hey.

Are we just going to let them get away with this?

Since they've taken the people of the town hostage,

there's nothing we can do.

Krai hates it when there are casualties.

Krai and Chloe are also missing.

And Arnold's been poisoned...

Arnold!

Wh-What the hell are you doing?

I hit a pressure point that stimulates his immune response.

But the effect is only temporary.

What do we do?

Right! That demi-human...

It's coming this way...

What do I do?

This is it!

They must not be spoken.

They are the posthumous names of those who were cursed.

They must not be forgotten.

It's a sign that they will eventually be regarded as the most ominous.

"Grieving Souls."

This is the heroic tale of Krai Andrey, the leader of the invincible party,

who fascinated both gods and demons

in an absolutely normal and mundane tale overflowing with love and peace.

Ryuu-ryu-ryu-ryuu!

Ryu-ryuu!

Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryuu!

Ryuu!

Ryu-ryuu!

Ryuu-ryu-ryu, ryuu-ryu-ryu.

Somehow or Another, I'd Like to Get Out

"Somehow or Another, I'd Like to Get Out."

Let This Grieving Soul Retire

Thank goodness I had the Dancing Form.

They think I'm one of them.

Um, so...

Ryu?

May I ask where you're going?

Ryuu-ryu-ryu!

Ryu?

Ryuu...

Ryu?

Ryu.

U-Um...

Ryu.

Ryu-ryu? Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu, ryu-ryu-ryu?

Where are we going?

Ryuu... Ryu-ryu-ryu. Ryu.

Ryuu. Ryu!

Wow. They understood me.

Ryu!

I had no idea a place like this existed beneath Suls.

The undergroundlings are real.

But...

It's hot.

Too hot.

I want to... go home already.

You're telling me you can't find Thousand Tricks?!

We've combed every inch of the town...

There's no way he could have escaped the barrier.

He must be in here somewhere.

If he doesn't want to come out...

Um... What's this?

Ryuu-ryu!

Ryuu!

Ryuu!

Um...

Ryuu!

We...

Ryuu-ryu-ryu-ryuu. Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu.

We are friends.

Ryuu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryuuu!

Let's get along!

Ryu?

Huh?

Ryu! Ryu-ryuu.

Ryu!

Ryu?

Ryu-ryu?

This is it!

It worked!

Thank goodness I asked Kris to put an offensive spell into this!

Ryu... Ryu!

Ryuu-ryu-ryu-ryu!

Ryu.

What's going on?

A second wave?

I got this thing from Sitri,

but I don't know what kind of magic is in here.

Ryu!

It worked!

Ryu!

Ryu!

A strengthening spell?!

This can't be happening!

Ryuu... Ryuuu...

Ugh, I'm so bored!

Hey, you over there.

Say something funny.

What?!

Liz!

Hey now...

Can you hear this, Thousand Tricks?

How long do you plan to hide?

If you don't show yourself,

we'll start killing one hostage every ten minutes.

Is he serious?!

What do we do now?!

Master...

I'm sick of this!

I'm going into the hot springs.

Hey!

Don't you care if the hostages die?

He's right!

I thought you didn't want any casualties!

What?

These guys would be the ones killing them.

Not me.

Who the hell are these guys?!

Really though, what are these guys?!

Bam!

Come on!

Let's see...

This should do it.

We'll deal with the ringleaders.

Please work on freeing the hostages.

Got it.

Leave this to us!

Thank you.

Arnold!

Take this.

I'm going to cut our way out of here!

It's time to show them our true strength as Nebulanubes warriors!

And ours, too!

Yeah!

Kill, kill!

Let's go!

What's happening?

What the...

Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu! Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryuu!

Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu! Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryuu!

Ryu!

What's going on?!

What is that?!

How can that thing be so huge?!

It's too big!

Ryu-ryu-ryuu!

Ryu!

Ryu-ryu-ryuu... ryuuu.

Hey, isn't that...

Krai?!

What's going on?

Are those...

Cave People?

Ryu-ryuu-ryu ryuu-ryu-ryuu!

"We dedicate this victory to our king."

"We no longer fear the malevolent god."

Sitri, you speak their language?!

I can just pick out some words.

But, like, what's this "malevolent god"?

Not sure...

Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu, ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu.

"You fought with us, displayed your power, and then showed us mercy."

Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu... ryu.

"You have proven yourself worthy to be our king."

When did Krai become a king?

Ryuu!

Ryu?

Ryu-ryu, ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryuu?

Um, where are we going now?

"Kill them all. The entire world will be ours"?!

There's no way Master would ever say something like that!

Is he using the Cave People to pin down Barrel?

But what's next?

Why don't we just ask him directly?

Hey, Krai!

Ryu?

Heyo!

Oh, Li...

Ryu! Ryu-ryu. Ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu.

"Show us the way, O King!"

That pattern on her forehead...

Is that it?

You're a princess, are you?!

You seem very knowledgeable, Sitri.

Ryu-ryu.

Um...

Ryu!

Huh?

Those girls are my friends.

Ryuu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu, ryuu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu-ryu.

"Leave no survivors"?!

Krai, whose side are you on?!

Ryu?

Huh?!
