Slayers Great (スレイヤーズぐれえと)

Welcome, welcome!

How cute! I want one!

This certainly is an odd town.

Yeah, well I suppose towns that boast golems

as a star product are few and far between.

"Perfect for souvenirs, why not try making your own special golem?"

From the sound of it, you'd think they're selling pottery.

Run for it!

It's a golem on the rampage!

Vibration

Blast!

The idiot Granion...

This time, I'll make him grovel miserably.

I will make this city mine.

Strike that, I'll take over this entire country!

Just watch, Haizen!

Are you all right?

It looks like you're not hurt. Are you all right?

It looks like you're not hurt.

Thank you very much. You're so kind, helping me like this.

Oh no, don't worry about it.

You don't need to reward us at all.

Exactly.

I can't thank you enough. Well, I'll be going now.

No really, we don't want a reward or compensation or anything.

Exactly, we'd feel bad making you go through all that trouble.

Oh please, don't call us lifesavers.

We only did what we did out of common decency and etiquette.

True, most people might offer

some small token of gratitude in circumstances like this,

but you need not worry about such matters.

By the way, my name is Lina, and this is Naga.

Just to let you know, I don't have any particular dislikes in food.

And neither do I, but I suppose I prefer brandy over other spirits.

Well, would you be kind enough to drop by my house?

I won't be able to offer you much in return...

Oh, I hope you're not feeling obligated in any way.

But I suppose it'd be rude to turn down an offer of hospitality.

I think I've gotten mixed up with some strange people.

I knew it. Misfortune is my middle name.

I have to work a little more.

So if you don't mind, please wait here until I'm done.

Now, don't work too hard...

So this is how they make souvenir golems.

Hey, you must be the two that kept our dear Laia out of harm's way.

Let me thank you as well.

Oh, please.

Ain't she a great kid? She works hard here. Oh, please.

Ain't she a great kid? She works hard here.

But you know, she's going through some tough times right now.

Tough times?

Her father, his name is Galia,

and he's one heck of a golem craftsman but...

Galia? You mean Galia Einburg?!

The legendary golem craftsman?!

Not so sure about the legendary part,

but that's the Galia we're talking about.

So that means if we get her father to make us a golem,

we'd make a killing selling it!

The problem is he hasn't made any golems these last few years.

That old coot, Galia...

Not making any?! We can't have that!

Why are you getting so upset?

Dear Laia is the one who's torn up over this.

Galia claims he's not inspired or some snobby thing like that,

but that means Laia has to work part-time to make a living.

Oh well, let's skip all this melancholy talk now.

It'll be some time before Laia is free.

Wanna give making your own souvenir golem a try?

Whoa. This is impressive.

Wow.

That's amazing. Wow.

That's amazing.

That's amazing. Are you sure you're not a pro?

Are you sure you're not a pro?

Working in this kind of occupation, I suppose it is only natural

they're cultured enough to know true art when they see it!

A far cry from someone here devoid of aesthetics,

capable only of making something loosely resembling a mutant bear!

Hey!

As for me, I like the simplicity and homeliness of Ms. Lina's golem. Hey!

As for me, I like the simplicity and homeliness of Ms. Lina's golem.

True, very simple and homely!

For better and for worse!

What's that supposed to mean?!

Stop gloating about making a weird and strange-looking golem!

Weird and strange? How dare you say that!

How else am I supposed to describe something like that?!

Well, not appreciating my refined taste in design and style

proves your mediocrity in both intellect and breast size!

Excuse me... My work is done for today, proves your mediocrity in both intellect and breast size!

Excuse me... My work is done for today, What does my breast size have to do with this, damn it, you always...

so let me show you to my house, please. What does my breast size have to do with this, damn it, you always...

The mood's so caustic and tense between them.

Maybe "misfortune" really is my middle name!

Dad! Dad! What're you doing?

I worked hard making those golems!

You call these golems?!

Look at all this hormone-driven smut you've made!

These things don't even come close to being true golems!

The hell they aren't! If you're gonna act all high and mighty,

why don't you build your own golems for a change?!

What was that?! You little...

Please stop! Both of you!

This is all because somebody's idiot good-for-nothing son

has been busy making crappy, worthless junk!

Magnificent.

Huh?

Big brother Huey!

Don't bother stopping that dolt! Big brother Huey!

Don't bother stopping that dolt!

More importantly, Laia, who are these people?

Ah, these people were nice enough to save me

from a rampaging golem in the town.

So I wanted to give thanks by...

I like you, missy.

Huh?

Yeah, I'm getting inspired just looking at you. Huh?

Yeah, I'm getting inspired just looking at you.

Haven't had a feeling like this for years.

Feeling inspired?

I like you! Hey, would ya mind being the model for my next golem?

Model?

I wouldn't mind...

O'mon, what do ya say? I'll pay you for being my model.

Pay for modeling?!

Wait a minute. Instead of being paid a fee for modeling, what if...

Fee for modeling?

You're too kind, but I'd rather you make a nice little golem for me.

Are you sure? I could do something simple like that any time of day.

I'll make a killing with that golem!

Why in the world is he interested in Lina of all people?!

Then we'll commemorate by going out tonight! Let's party hard tonight!

Yeah!

Party hard? Yeah!

Party hard?

Thank you very much. Come again!

I'm stuffed! Great food!

But hey, let me compliment you. You eat like the best of them.

I like you both!

But really, we're... I like you both!

But really, we're...

Huh?

Now who the hell are you?!

You're Galia Einburg, are you not?

What if I am?!

Then I'm afraid you'll have to accompany me. What if I am?!

Then I'm afraid you'll have to accompany me.

If you come quietly, no harm will be done.

The hell with...

The hell with that! The hell with...

I have no idea who you are, but it looks like your luck just ran out,

now that you've run into me, Naga the Serpent!

A sorceress? I'd advise you to keep clear

of matters that're over your head, or you may get hurt.

Blue Magic Wave!

Damn it, attack!

Mega Explosion Array!

Freeze Arrow!

Why you little... Fireball!

What was that about 'keep clear of matters

that're over your head, or you may get hurt? '

Take those words and eat them!

What's going on?!

Olear out!

Come back! Olear out!

Come back!

Come back! It's too dangerous to chase them!

It's too dangerous to chase them!

More importantly, are you all right?

Are you Galia Einburg?

Hey, you're that Lord Haizen!

Even you know of the dispute between Lord Granion and I

over whom should have dominion of this city of Stoner, do you not?

Really? It seemed like you two were at odds before any of this came up.

Insolence like that...

Oalm down. I won't deny it. Insolence like that...

Oalm down. I won't deny it.

Oalm down. I won't deny it.

Oalm down. I won't deny it.

But in any case, the king sent word the other day.

The instructions in the edict state we should each build a large golem

and have them compete for dominion over the city.

What is it?

So, you want me to build you a golem for this contest. What is it?

So, you want me to build you a golem for this contest.

Sorry pal, but I ain't interested one bit.

I don't know what you think, but I'll be damned

if I start building golems for the sake of fighting.

Are you sure about this?

What if I told you, Lord Granion is planning

on using golems as instruments of warfare?

According to moles I have working for Granion, he plans to first

take over this city, and then move on to mass producing armed golems.

The unscrupulous men that attacked you were probably sent by Granion.

We can't let him take over this city!

But do you still insist you do not want any part of this

because you just don't feel like it?!

I've failed you, sire.

I never imagined Galia would keep company with the likes of them.
