I'm Standing on a Million Lives (2020) s01e08 Episode Script

Non-Player Killer

1
Let's split up.
Split up? What do you mean?
I think it's better
that we split up into two teams.
Two teams?
One team goes after the Deock Empire
soldiers to rescue the Altrosians.
The other team searches for other cargos
that are Radorpo bound.
What exactly is this cargo?
Without figuring out its definition,
we won't know how to clear this stage.
Indeed, if we misunderstood
the definition, we might fail.
Sounds like a good idea.
How should we split up?
Judging by combat level,
Shindo and I
should be on different teams.
For certain,
I'm going after the Deock soldiers
to avenge Bimzberg.
In this case,
it's up to the rest of you
to decide which team you want to be on.
I'M STANDING ON A MILLION LIVES
The strange routine in front of me
Stepping out of common sense
Cutting off the comforting link
to look for the true light
My back is against the wall,
I can't give in
(Be tough, don't cry, keep going)
The reality is a matter of life or death
The enthusiasm within my heart
(surviving in despair)
Entering the spiritual world
(fearless, striving)
We were born with loneliness
Walk side by side,
and be vulnerable no more
Even in the face of life's uncertainty
The fire of life will never die
With courage in my hand, I stand strong
Fight for tomorrow
RADORPO, GATEWAY
MARANBA TERRITORY
Remaining time, 7 days and 1 hour.
TEAM A
SEARCH FOR CARGOS TO DELIVER TO RADORPO
TEAM B
GO AFTER THE DEOCK SOLDIERS
Keep going down this road,
and there should be a village.
We'll look for any cargo that's
going to Radorpo and ask to escort it.
That will clear the quest.
In this case,
even if we can't find a village,
we might also run into merchants
going to Radorpo.
Escorting merchants might also work.
This seems quite easy.
Team A seems to be going well.
Therefore, as planned,
Team B will go after
Deock Empire's carriage.
Why am I on this team?
It's definitely going to be dangerous.
They don't know that we escaped.
It'd be good to catch them off-guard
and kill them.
But, there's something bothering me.
Before we were trapped in that cave
There you go.
That should be their routine report
to the kingdom.
It was likely they reported back about
entrapping the Warriors and
Cortonel soldiers.
It's highly possible.
If they sent a letter
about imprisoning Cortonel soldiers,
but ended up losing contact
with the kingdom,
the Deock Empire might think
that their soldiers didn't catch us,
but were killed by us?
That's right.
No, they're a warmongering country.
They can use any reason to wage a war.
We must not let that happen.
Are you saying that it might cause a war?
In terms of the number of soldiers alone,
the empire is ten times as powerful as us.
We stand no chance.
I don't want my country to be destroyed
because of me.
Therefore, what we must do
is make them write another letter
stating that Cortonel isn't the enemy.
"Make them write"? They have to write it?
We don't know their language,
handwriting, and signature
so we can't threaten them
or write it for them.
We have to gain their trust
so that they send the report on their own.
That's way too hard.
The letter might not make any difference.
The empire can ignore the letter
and wage war upon Cortonel.
However, even so
I want them to go through hell
and despair,
suffer from humiliation and despair,
and die in agony.
I have an idea.
A face of a villain.
Finally, we've caught up with them.
There are the Deock soldiers,
and the prisoners are still safe.
When should we attack?
Not yet.
This area is all flat
without any obstacles.
Before we're fully prepared,
we'll keep following them from a distance.
We'll strike tomorrow.
Understood.
By the way, I can't believe
you'd come up with such a cruel idea.
Perhaps you're better off as
a Boss monster than a warrior.
It's kind of my specialty.
Dark Souls series,
Fallout series, et cetera.
Oh, console games.
So, I spent a lot of my time
thinking about how to kill my enemies.
I've been playing social networking games
in the past year.
Your smile is more beautiful
than any gems in the world.
I want to see you again soon, Tsubasa!
Tsubasa, I miss you so much!
Speaking of this world,
this is a virtual world, right?
I have no idea either.
Let's say,
if you kissed someone from this world
here,
does it count as the first kiss?
What? Did you
Who did you kiss?
Mr. Makua or someone else?
I did not! I'm not talking about me!
Is it Shindo?
It's a hypothetical question.
I'm not talking about anyone specifically.
Well, I'm talking about you!
And you're being too direct.
Anyway, first kiss is only a concept.
A virtual one should also count
as an experience, no?
Besides, this world is so extremely real.
I'll relieve Ms. Kahabell of her shift.
But whose experience is it
if he was asleep?
I don't think
that can count as experience.
By the way, it's often that one is awake
but misses the timing to open his eyes?
Wake up, Ms. Kahabell.
Time to change shifts.
Judging by his reaction,
he was completely asleep then.
It has been a difficult journey.
All the commanding officers died
so I, the lance corporal, have to
take charge for the rest of the journey.
It's something
that has never been heard before.
However, this journey will end
in three days.
At Radorpo, the international port,
we shall execute the foreign pagans
to take them down a peg.
This will also prevent Mery Continent
from being defiled by them.
Excuse me
Can I interrupt for a second?
What?
You escaped from that dungeon?
Get ready for combat!
Wait a second,
I'm here to make a deal.
A deal?
That's right.
You should know that
fighting against us pointless, right?
Warriors can recover from any wound
within 20 seconds,
and we're revived from death
in 40 seconds.
You don't stand a chance.
So, what do you want?
What's the deal?
Before we discuss that,
three Cortonels were killed in that cave.
Two warriors also fell into the cave.
It's now just me
and the girl with glasses.
Hey, Glasses!
Shut up, I'm here.
You're the one making the deal.
Why should I be here?
He's making this deal?
That's right.
He's a warrior but
he's become an Altrosian.
What?
That's right.
I'm making a deal with you
in exchange for the three Altrosians.
If you don't give them to me,
my immortal self will go around the world
to spread the teachings of the Saint.
People will surely believe in the warrior,
won't they?
What's more,
the world will be full of Altrosians!
If we give them to you,
you have nothing to lose!
What deal is this?
You have until sunrise tomorrow.
If you kill or hurt them before that,
the deal is off.
I'll come back here when your time is up.
Be sure to make a decision before that.
Farewell. Let's go, Glasses.
Shut up!
What do you say, sir?
This is not even a deal.
But, we can't just ignore it.
I know.
If an immortal warrior
becomes a missionary for the pagans,
not only will this expedition end in vain,
but it will only get worse.
We have to find a way to get rid of them.
But, they are already
short of two warriors.
That's right.
Warriors are immortal, but they cannot
escape from holes or prisons.
Exactly. Let's go capture them tonight.
You're right.
Warriors are immortals.
Good evening, this is Glasses.
What are you doing here?
Shush. He doesn't know that I'm here.
What do you want?
Surely you are aware
that I don't get along with that guy.
Indeed, you don't seem to get along.
What's the matter?
Are you betraying him?
Now that we're alone,
our relationship is at its worse.
If you're willing to capture him for me,
I'll show you where he is.
What do you say? Shall we go now?
We can't trust you.
You might free the prisoners
while we're away from the carriage.
Do you want to come with me
to check where he is?
No, going back and forth
is just a waste of time.
So, what do we do?
Heim and I will go capture that guy.
Gurobi will stay on watch.
Yes, sir.
If this woman lied, just capture her.
Right?
Of course. I'll lead the way.
So, it's two against one.
They took the bait.
Bring me the rope.
I'm on it.
It's none of my business now.
"ATTACK ON HUMANS": DETERMINED AS
"EXCESSIVE DEFENSE OF HUMANS"
(UNLESS THEY'RE UNDER ATTACK FIRST)
EXP DEDUCTED AS PUNISHMEN
WHICH MAY CAUSE DOWNGRADING
TO ONE OR NEGATIVE
Hey, are we there yet?
It's just ahead.
One more minute.
I see, just one minute.
Not yet?
Almost there.
30 seconds more.
Heim, go check it out.
Yes, sir.
I've taken them this far,
it should be enough.
Sir, there's nothing ahead.
You're indeed lying.
When we arrive in Radorpo,
I'll drown you in the sea.
What's that?
Welcome back.
What a shame,
your mission ends here.
You may return to your country now.
The Altrosians!
Did you kill them?
Even the kid?
Feeling confused?
Ms. Kahabell and
her two subordinates died.
The other two warriors fell into the cave.
All of that is true.
However, it's a lie that
Yotsutya converted to Altros religion.
What?
We
We're just here to seek revenge.
For our five teammates.
As for the last survivor
Stop! Stop!
The lives of the missionaries
will come to an end like this.
Are they doused in oil?
They're going to burn them alive!
While I'm on it,
I'll light up your horses.
Go get them!
No, wait,
we can't leave the warriors here.
Burn! "Magical Fire!"
Don't you dare run!
MAGICIAN (HEAT), WARDROBE (TOP)
Hot!
Darn it!
Hot!
Our horse!
We'll take over the cargos
in the carriage.
Come get us!
Go!
Are they coming?
Yes, here they come.
It's a flop if they check the bodies.
Sir, there seems to be
some commotion out there.
What's going on?
Warrior?
Take your clothes off.
We're here to save you.
Good.
As planned,
they will believe that Ms. Kahabell
and the soldiers from Cortonel are dead.
We, the warriors, came seeking revenge.
Cortonel and Deock Empire
should at least remain as they were.
Even better is that now Kamilt
I trapped them in the ruins
to keep them from tagging along.
And that resulted in this.
If so, how can I face the King of Deock?
He must have regretted his decision
and he's now in great despair?
Although I'm impressed,
it's probably best
not to befriend this guy?
On the other hand, it's worse
to have someone like him as an enemy.
It's been three days
and we haven't seen any carriage.
There must be a village along the road.
Once we find a village,
we should be able to find a merchant.
Even so, we can't be sure that
there will be cargos going to Radorpo.
Remaining time, 4 days and 3 hours.
I wonder if everything is going well
for Yotsuya's team.
I found a cave down there.
Warriors.
The little boy has regained consciousness?
Yes, he just did.
Well
Your name is Beriri, right?
Yes.
I heard that you saved me.
Thank you very much.
Ms. Warrior.
You're welcome.
No wait, calm down.
I'm not attracted to little boys!
However, who knew that
the plan would actually work?
We must prepare three dummies.
Let's make the dummies with
woven bags and spare clothes.
Won't we be exposed if they see the faces?
Cover the heads with bags.
Then, wrap ropes around the necks.
That will seem as if they were hanged.
If there's a real corpse among them,
the other dummies will look
more believable.
I understand the strategy.
Well then, let's get started.
But in this case,
we have to really kill a human.
We've never killed any human.
I'm more concerned with
how much experience it deducts.
No, that's not the problem.
Do you really think we're just in a game?
If this is a real world,
isn't that a huge problem?
Is it not?
The AI performance of these NPC
is truly over the top.
But, so are we.
See? We can feel the pain,
but only barely.
If the game master is being honest,
this might be some kind of
future technology.
It's deemed a virtual environment
that's a believable illusion.
Besides, being able to retrieve weapons
and armors out of thin air
cannot be more surreal.
Anyway, I'm not the one doing it.
I don't care if it's real.
Great. We have completed the mission
of rescuing the prisoners.
Once Ms. Kahabell completes her mission,
we'll be able to prevent the unwanted war.
Well,
even if this is a virtual world,
is it necessary to kill people
to prevent war?
Of course it is.
In five weeks, we will still be
in the same environment.
Besides, how can we say no
to a request from our teammate?
What's wrong? Besides,
one of our companions were killed.
Isn't it right to kill them as well?
No, I'd never imagine
hearing something like this from you.
I'm like this in games.
If a character I like is killed,
I'd kill all the enemies as well.
But, if so,
what are the three of us to you, Yotsuya?
What are you three to me?
Let's say, if there's a bus
A bus?
The bus is about to fall from a cliff.
If any of the passengers move,
everyone might die.
We just happen to be
the four passengers on that bus.
What a terrible metaphor!
And it's not even a metaphor!
Tokitate, don't you remember
that this game is also about your life?
We don't have time to care about
the lives of other characters in the game.
YOTSUYA YUSUKE, LEVEL 9 to 7
EPISODE 8, NPC KILLER
In the shiny world
Embracing the moment
In the shiny world
Now, now, now
How can I become stronger
The reason why I always feel lost
Now, now, now
Memories sparkle
If I could become you or somebody else
Flying birds
Now, now, now
Must share the same wishes
Even though all the "ifs" come true
I won't be me again
Write down your dream and my name
On the beach with an hour hand
It'll disappear soon
Even so, I want to be me for once
Unpredictable future
Moving forward with you
In the shiny world
Embracing the moment
