Slayers Gorgeous (スレイヤーズごぅじゃす)

Thank you now.

Thank you.

Oh, I'll throw this in for free!

Hey, come back here, come back!

This tastes pretty good.

They say that store came up with this dish.

But how did you find out about this place, Naga?

Tim!

Rick, time to go.

Okay!

Oh man, it's that time already?

Bye-bye.

See you later.

It's time again.

Huh? What's going on?

What is this?

I have no idea.

Why, what's a dragon doing in a place like this?!

What's a civilian doing in a place like this?!

Leave this to us and run now!

Did you think some puny arms like that would hold up

against my mighty dragons?!

Do not attempt to resist my march to the castle!

Do that and you will not be harmed!

Dedicated soldiers, aren't we?

Fine. You'll be scattered about in no time!

Engage them.

Freeze Bullet!

Haven't you forgotten...

about someone here?

Sorceresses?!

Very well. Zone Flare! Retreat!

I did not anticipate the likes of you to be here!

Very well! I will retreat just this once.

But, it won't be so simple next time.

Just shut up already!

I have no intention to wait around until the next time!

Supreme Thun...

Oh please don't! Wait!

Hey, what's the big idea?

Please, just listen to what we have to say!

The soldiers told me about the deed you performed.

You defeated the dragons, did you?

Yes, I guess so.

I thought there were two of you?

Oh, about that. Please don't worry about her.

She does this kind of stuff all the time.

I see.

In any case, what might your name be, fair one?

Lina. Lina Inverse.

So you are the Dragon... Oh, nothing...

Well then, if that's the case,

you might be able to provide me with a needed service.

If you will, please, come this way.

Behold that which is before you!

That's...

One thousand years ago, when the War of Demonic Invasion was raging about,

this land was scarred by the invasion of a demonic creature.

While that malicious entity spread death and destruction about this land,

one courageous warrior stood up against it.

After a fierce battle,

the proud warrior sealed the demonic creature within this land.

The king of that period praised the noble deeds of that warrior,

and offered to him lordship of this land and reign over it.

That was the beginning of the House of Oulvert.

Enough boasting about ourselves.

Hey, wait a minute?!

All that important sounding stuff you just said,

you were just bragging?!

Exactly.

But, in that fort you see before you, an army of dragons have set up

a base and have been molesting this town.

And my daughter's the one that's behind all this.

Oh, destroy this all!

I see, so he hired some sorceresses, did he?

Oertainly they won't be a match against my dragons.

Alas, if he seeks a fight such as this,

then I shall respond in kind with all my forces.

Oome forth, my loyal Tetrad Knights!

Black Knight Thornfort, at your service.

Gaizno, here for you, my lady.

The time has come for you to prove your worth.

Spare no effort so that victory shall be ours.

All for the sake of our Mistress Marlene.

Where did you...

Who art thou?

You are...

You are one of the sorceress pair!

Why are you here?!

Why else?

Your pompous laugh was so unrefined and amateurish, I, Naga the Serpent,

could not stop myself from giving you a lesson or two!

Blast it! Enough of this nonsense!

Wait, Thornfort!

You say my pompous laugh is unrefined?

Exactly!

Your laughter is too tense and forced!

Lmpressive. No ordinary mortal would so accurately discern such flaws.

I dare say, how would you like to aid me in my efforts?

I am willing offer you a seat as one of my Tetrad Knights.

Titles only in name have little appeal.

You would be paid a considerable amount daily.

Well, if you insist so strongly! All right then.

I'm willing to come around to assist in your efforts!

But, tell me. Why are you picking a fight with the lord here?

Why else?

Because dear father is not willing to raise my allowance!

Just hold on one second here!

You two are engaged in an over-exaggerated

family quarrel because of a reason as stupid as that?!

You see, allowance amounts started this,

but the real reason lies elsewhere.

What do you mean?

She's going through the adolescent phase of being overly rebellious.

You're just calling this a phase?

So, why in heaven's name is a child, just going through a "phase,"

marching around with dragons in tow?!

Marlene is gifted in the ability of communicating with dragons.

We were planning on establishing a dragoon force anew,

but she ran off with all those dragons in tow!

So the idea is to bring back Marlene without hurting the dragons...

Now I dare say, how rude of you to walk off like that!

No way I'm gonna go along with a family quarrel like that!

Please, you must!

Absolutely not.

How about 200 gold coins.

Make that 300!

But doing that without hurting the dragons...

No worry! Just as with my daughter Marlene,

I also have the ability to communicate with dragons!

I will accompany you and handle the dragons.

You see, not only do the dragons follow Marlene around,

but there is also an accomplished swordsman with her as well.

It's him that I'd like you to take care of.

Marlene and the others will probably attack tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow? Why not now?

Yes...

Well, typically, she would get up late in the morning, have her lunch,

and attack when she get bored in the afternoon.

However, she was defeated, so she won't have the grit to attack today,

but she will regain her nerves to attack tomorrow morning.

I see.

Mistress Marlene, Mistress Marlene.

Let me have just one more slice of that cake.

Mistress Marlene! Mistress Marlene!

Mistress Marlene!

What is it? You are making a scene.

It is time we launch our attack.

Yes, alright then.

The time is at hand for us to be of service for our dear Mistress Marlene.

With our all our strengths combined together as one,

we shall deliver a noble blow upon the unsympathetic tyrant!

Bark as loud as you like for now. In the end, we will be the ones laughing.

Where did you come from?!

A rather moronic question, isn't that?

I was walking the hallways and I heard an arrogant laugh.

So naturally I felt obligated to compete against you.

I see...

They will probably take this route to advance against us.

That fortress used to be our villa,

but before I knew it, Marlene had remodeled the building.

Before you knew it?

Wouldn't someone notice major construction like that pretty quickly?!

Well, I didn't notice it.

I see.

Your Highness!

Over a dozen dragons, led by Thornfort,

are advancing toward this castle!

What?!

Here they come.

It was a little sooner than I anticipated. Ms. Lina!

Ah hah! To think we would be rewarded with the good fortune

of having you personally receive us, Lord Oulvert!

You wouldn't be planning to engage us in battle

with so few forces, would you?

Or have you agreed to raise the allowance

of our dear Mistress Marlene?

Enough! I am an inheritor of the Oulvert family name!

What would I say to my ancestors if they should learn that

I shamelessly caved in to the demands of my own daughter!

Thornfort! I'm afraid I cannot allow you to advance any further!

Well, this will be interesting.

I'll be curious to see how you will defeat our dragons.

Please, oblige us, if you will.

Do not underestimate me, Thornfort.

What?!

Marlene can communicate with the dragons.

Did you think I could not do the same?

No, you couldn't...

Heed me, Red Dragon Zone Flare.

Heed the words with which I speak in my heart.

Heed my voice that I speak from within.

Knock it off! O'mon now! Stop nibbling! Let go now!

Whoa, I thought I was a goner.

What the hell?!

You didn't even come close to living up to all that

boastful talk you did before!

How rude!

I did communicate with him!

It was just that...
