In Episode 2, Zagan's awkward attempts to care for Nephy continue as he struggles to understand the basics of human—or in this case, elven—interaction. Though he tries to maintain his intimidating archdemon persona, it’s clear that Zagan is out of his depth when it comes to forming a relationship. Nephy, still fearful and unsure of her new situation, remains obedient but distant, unsure if Zagan is truly the kind master he appears to be or if his dark reputation will soon reveal a cruel side.
The episode delves into Nephy’s perspective for the first time, giving viewers a glimpse into her past. She has been passed from master to master, each treating her as nothing more than a tool, which has made her wary and silent. Zagan, however, seems different. Her growing confusion about his behavior leads her to wonder if he’s truly as heartless as he looks.
Zagan, frustrated by his inability to communicate his feelings, decides to give Nephy a gift—a pendant imbued with protection magic. However, in true Zagan fashion, his awkward delivery makes the gift seem more like an order, and Nephy, while grateful, misinterprets his intentions. The episode showcases how difficult it is for both of them to understand each other’s emotions, even as they slowly begin to grow closer.
Meanwhile, there are hints of a growing threat on the horizon. Other demons, envious of Zagan’s power, begin plotting against him. Though Zagan remains oblivious to this danger, too focused on trying to understand Nephy, the looming conflict adds tension to their budding relationship.
As the episode concludes, Zagan begins to realize that his real challenge isn’t just in protecting Nephy physically but also in helping her heal emotionally. However, his own social ineptitude makes this a far more daunting task than any battle he's faced.
Themes:
Episode 2 explores the slow development of trust between Zagan and Nephy, with the main focus being on their emotional barriers. It continues the balance of awkward comedy and tender moments, showing how difficult it is for someone as socially inexperienced as Zagan to express his growing affection for Nephy. There’s also the introduction of external threats, hinting at more action and danger in future episodes.

00:30I don't have the courage to go near her.
00:32But I don't want her to get upset, so I won't do anything like that.
00:37I'm very hungry.
00:55You woke up?
01:00Yes. Good morning, my lord. What can I do for you?
01:04Is she going to say good morning to me every morning?
01:08Wait.
01:09When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
01:13Should I also say good morning to her?
01:15How are you? Did you have a good day?
01:17Yes, that will be fine.
01:22Hey!
01:24I've brought breakfast. Go ahead and eat.
01:27I don't know what happens to me in front of her.
01:57I don't have the courage to go near her.
01:59But I don't want her to get upset, so I won't do anything like that.
02:02Wait.
02:03When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
02:06Should I also say good morning to her?
02:08How are you? Did you have a good day?
02:10I don't know what happens to me in front of her.
02:13Wait.
02:14When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
02:17Should I also say good morning to her?
02:19How are you? Did you have a good day?
02:21I don't know what happens to me in front of her.
02:24Wait.
02:25When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
02:28Should I also say good morning to her?
02:30How are you? Did you have a good day?
02:32I don't know what happens to me in front of her.
02:34Wait.
02:35When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
02:38Should I also say good morning to her?
02:40How are you? Did you have a good day?
02:42I don't know what happens to me in front of her.
02:44Wait.
02:45When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
02:48Should I also say good morning to her?
02:50How are you? Did you have a good day?
02:52I don't know what happens to me in front of her.
02:54Wait.
02:55When someone says good morning to you, what should you say in return?
02:58Should I also say good morning to her?
03:11I don't know how I became such a weird person.
03:14Perhaps this is nature.
03:17Master, are you also eating the same food that I am eating?
03:21Why? Is there any problem?
03:23No, I'm just happy that I'm getting something to eat.
03:28But I feel strange that you're eating what I'm eating.
03:33Huh? Wait a minute.
03:35Are we really eating such useless food?
03:38To be honest, yes.
03:40Most of the slaves like me are given this kind of food.
03:44That means this is not food, but...
03:47fodder?
03:48Huh?
03:50One thing is for sure.
03:51Seeing me eat this food, I'm more worried than angry.
03:55It feels like he's thinking,
03:57if I don't do something for this man soon,
04:00he's going to die very soon.
04:05Oh, now I get it.
04:07It seems that good people don't usually eat this kind of food.
04:11Because I've eaten this food all my life,
04:13maybe that's why I've never complained.
04:15Apart from bread, if I've eaten anything, it's just biscuits.
04:18As soon as I took the name, my childhood memories came alive.
04:22I don't even know what kind of food people eat.
04:28Sir, if you don't mind, can I cook food for you every day?
04:35You can cook food?
04:37Yes, just like home.
04:39Home food!
04:42Hmm.
04:43I was so busy with my magic,
04:45that I never thought this could happen.
04:48And now, the girl I love,
04:50she's going to cook food for me?
04:54Listen, Nefi.
04:55Now I'll tell you what to do next.
04:57Yes.
05:00First of all, we'll go to the city.
05:03You want to ride?
05:05I'll drop you to the city in just three copper coins.
05:08Damn!
05:09I don't have any money.
05:11Ten lakh copper coins!
05:13I said ten lakh gold coins!
05:15Gold coins!
05:17Gold coins!
05:19Walking is good for your health.
05:22Yes.
05:29I'll have to do something to earn money.
05:31Right now, I don't even have a copper coin in my house.
05:34I have the things I need to sell,
05:37but I don't even have the money to send them to the buyer.
05:40Should I have robbed that horse-drawn carriage guy for money?
05:48No!
05:49If I do such a disgusting thing,
05:51I don't know what she'll think of me.
05:53I don't think this is the right thing to do.
05:55Instead,
05:56what if I sell the fort and open a restaurant with Nefi?
06:04Where are you going, Piddi?
06:05Give me back my money!
06:08No!
06:09Sir, look over there.
06:11Oh.
06:12Looks like someone's robbing them.
06:16Don't worry.
06:18They're petty thieves.
06:19They won't hurt them.
06:26What happened to you?
06:27Nothing.
06:31Oh, no.
06:33Was Nefi kidnapped like this when he was a kid?
06:38Nefi,
06:39now you'll see.
06:43How do I blow them up?
06:45He's a magician!
06:47He's a magician!
06:48How did he get here?
06:49Don't worry, friends.
06:50Magicians can't do two things at once.
06:53Kill him!
06:56Nefi,
06:57follow me.
06:59I don't want to do this
07:01to save you.
07:04I want to show you
07:05that you don't have to be afraid of them.
07:07You're dead!
07:12This is impossible.
07:14I can't believe you're trying to defeat a magician with a weapon.
07:25What happened, sir?
07:26Sir, help us!
07:28Sir, save us!
07:31Magicians who help people
07:33are rare these days.
07:35If you want to beat them up,
07:37then come.
07:38I've made a deal with them.
07:40And I don't know who you are.
07:42If you try to get in my way,
07:44the consequences will be dire.
07:51Run!
07:53So this is it.
07:55You want to weaken my energy circle with the power of fire.
07:58I'm glad you gave me a reason to kill myself.
08:04That was a good try.
08:05But you're still a kid.
08:07Now it's my turn.
08:13What happened?
08:15Why isn't the spell working?
08:18Maybe you don't know,
08:19but your energy circle is in my custody.
08:21Now only I have a say in this energy circle.
08:35What happened?
08:36Did you feel bad?
08:37Now do you realize how it feels to lose something?
08:45Help!
08:46Help!
08:51Did I make a mistake again?
08:55These little thieves are like dogs
08:57who bark at people on the street.
09:00Now that I've given them an answer,
09:02they're safe.
09:03They attacked us and you're saying
09:05they're safe?
09:13That's great, magician.
09:14You saved our lives.
09:16Not all magicians are bad, right?
09:18Listen, sir.
09:19Would you like to come to the city
09:21to protect us?
09:23In return, I'll give you money.
09:25Why not?
09:28That's strange.
09:29Can money really be earned so easily?
09:33If I protect people like this,
09:35will people keep giving me money?
09:39No.
09:40Magicians are usually bad people
09:42who hurt people.
09:44And I'm a magician too.
09:46But before today,
09:47I've taught many thieves a lesson.
09:50But no one ever thanked me.
09:54You work for them, right?
09:56You're so beautiful.
09:57Your master is so brave.
09:59Isn't he afraid of me
10:01because Navi is with me?
10:05Can I ask you something, sir?
10:06Yes, go ahead.
10:07Why did you save their lives
10:09from those thieves?
10:11To be honest,
10:12I don't know the reason either.
10:14I just wanted to show you
10:16that you don't have to be afraid
10:18of those thieves.
10:20Maybe this is a good opportunity
10:22to make a place in his heart.
10:24I just have to say something
10:26that will make him crazy about me.
10:31I just showed some selfish scoundrels
10:33their real place.
10:41I don't know why I start giving lectures
10:43instead of expressing my love.
10:57We're here to pick up our stuff.
11:00But before that,
11:01I have to buy some things for Nefi.
11:05But I don't know
11:06what girls really want.
11:09Listen, Nefi.
11:10Tell me, what do you want?
11:12Whatever you give me,
11:13I'll take it as my fate.
11:17I can understand.
11:18A girl who has been a slave all her life,
11:21what does she have to do with such things?
11:31Welcome, both of you.
11:33If the magician is happy to meet you,
11:35what would you like to buy?
11:37Of course,
11:38he's not happy to see me here.
11:41Arrange some clothes for our madam.
11:45This is so cute.
11:53Just wait and watch.
11:55Maniola will show his magic right now.
11:57So let's start.
11:59But master...
12:00Why are you ashamed of me?
12:02Everyone was staring at his collar in the market.
12:06This collar keeps the inner powers under control.
12:08If it's not here,
12:09she can run anywhere.
12:10So remember this.
12:16Here comes the most beautiful girl in the world.
12:19Okay.
12:20What's this?
12:29Are you out of your mind?
12:30I want to praise myself.
12:32Are you out of your mind?
12:34I told you to bring good clothes for her.
12:37What did you say?
12:38Looking at your face,
12:39I think you like such clothes.
12:41Do I look so cheap to her?
12:48Master,
12:49don't look at me like that.
12:51Don't you have any other clothes?
12:53But what's wrong with these clothes?
12:55They are cute.
12:56So let's go and try them on.
12:58You won't make her wear this.
13:00Got it?
13:01I was just kidding.
13:09So tell me,
13:10what would you like to say now?
13:12This dress was worn by an old maid.
13:15This dress and the apron are made of good silk.
13:18And these are not ordinary shoes,
13:20but magical shoes.
13:21She won't feel pain while working.
13:25Nephi, do you like it?
13:27If you like it,
13:28I like it too.
13:29If you don't make a decision soon,
13:31that girl will make you wear the same dress again.
13:34How do you like it?
13:35I like this dress, master.
13:37Thank you very much.
13:39Come again.
13:44You are lucky.
13:45Your master cares so much about you.
13:49My master cares about me?
13:56Nephi,
13:57let's go to that shop.
13:59Yes.
14:01Magician, how can I help you?
14:04I have a very important job for you.
14:07Can you remove this collar?
14:11But...
14:12As long as this collar is around your neck,
14:15I will feel that you are a member of the archdemons.
14:18You don't have to wear it anymore.
14:21Really?
14:22Of course.
14:23I don't know when I will change.
14:26I treated it like my property.
14:31This is not an ordinary collar, magician.
14:33It is tied with a spell.
14:35An ordinary man like me won't be able to remove it.
14:38I am sorry to tell you this, but...
14:42I don't think anyone can remove this collar.
14:45If we try to remove it,
14:47the girl's life will be in danger.
14:49That means we can't forcefully remove it.
14:51It would be better if you remove it with its real key.
14:55But on the day of the auction,
14:57no one had its key.
14:59I think its key must be in Macho Stars' fort.
15:02Here, keep it.
15:03Your reward.
15:04No, no, no.
15:05I don't need it.
15:06I didn't do anything for you.
15:08And anyway,
15:09I can't dare to take money from you.
15:13You may not remember,
15:15but once you saved my life.
15:17This is about a year ago.
15:20That day, the goons surrounded me and my daughter.
15:23You were the one who saved my life.
15:26We were scared and ran away.
15:28And you let us go.
15:32Please forgive me.
15:33I misunderstood you that day.
15:35I think one of the goons I taught a lesson to
15:38must have tried to steal it.
15:41Okay, I'll take it back.
15:43But don't thank me.
15:45I don't even remember that day.
15:47But I can never forget that day.
15:49If you ever need help, let me know.
15:54What's going on today?
15:56I'm getting anxious to see so much love.
16:00Is Nefica going to be with me because of this?
16:03I was scared to talk to the magician before.
16:07But he's changed a lot now.
16:17It's almost evening.
16:19She must be very tired today.
16:21We should have dinner at a hotel tonight.
16:31Sir.
16:33Tell me one thing.
16:34Do you really want to take this collar off my neck?
16:38That's what I want.
16:40You know that I can run away after it's taken off, right?
16:45To be honest, I'm not afraid of that.
16:48Because it can happen anytime.
16:50Nefica doesn't have to worry about me as much as I do about her.
16:54Besides, I don't want to force her to stay with me.
16:59Don't think that I'll take this collar off right away.
17:02You don't have to be so happy.
17:04Why don't I say that I really want to take this collar off right now?
17:08Yes.
17:12There must be a magic book somewhere
17:14where it's written how to talk to girls.
17:18Do you want to learn how to use a knife and fork?
17:22No.
17:28I've never eaten so peacefully before.
17:32Oh, I see.
17:34Finally, I understand what Nefica was saying
17:37that caught my attention at first sight.
17:40We're the same.
17:41When I didn't have the strength, I was like her.
17:44Just like her, I was looking for my own existence in this world.
17:47Start with what you like.
17:50You can eat as much as you want.
17:52You don't have to be afraid of anyone.
17:54But...
17:55Start eating.
17:56This will be much better than the bread you ate this morning.
18:03Thank you, God.
18:14Ah!
18:19Mm.
18:20Mm.
18:21Mm.
18:22You can't taste it like this.
18:24Chew it.
18:25Mm.
18:27How did you like it?
18:29This food is really good.
18:32Mm.
18:33I thought it would taste sweet.
18:36But this is very tasty.
18:41Mm.
18:42Mm?
18:44Mm.
18:45Mm.
18:46Mm.
18:47Mm.
18:48Mm.
18:52Here you go.
18:53What?
18:54Should I eat it?
18:55Does she really want me to eat it?
18:59With the spoon she just touched with her lips?
19:02I can't believe it.
19:07It's good.
19:08What?
19:09Why don't you ever give me any orders?
19:13Actually, I...
19:15Sir, will you let me do what I think is best for you?
19:23Yes, why not?
19:24But will you be able to do it, Nefi?
19:27Yes, I'll definitely do it.
19:32Huh?
19:33You fed me first.
19:35Now it's my turn.
19:39Mm.
19:40So, how did you like it?
19:42It tastes sweet now.
19:44Mm.
19:45Mm.
19:51Today, people are starting to look at me differently.
20:08It wasn't a dream.
20:10That day, a magician saved my life.
20:13That day, we were killing those magicians who used to target young girls.
20:17And then, on our way home, one of our soldiers suddenly attacked us.
20:24But later, we found out that he was the same face stealer we were looking for to kill.
20:30And that other man, his name was Zegan.
20:34He looked like an executioner.
20:37But I felt like he was very lonely.
20:43Are you lost in thought?
20:46Lord Clevel!
20:47There's no need for such formalities.
20:50You're the brave girl who stopped the crime that was being committed under the pretext of kidnapping.
20:54And you killed that sinner.
20:56No.
20:57I couldn't save the four soldiers you assigned to me.
21:02There's nothing to be disappointed about.
21:04The important thing is that you've avenged your brothers' deaths.
21:08And you should be proud of it.
21:11Yes.
21:12But this isn't over yet.
21:17Huh?
21:18After searching that sinner's house, we found out that there's another culprit behind all this.
21:25His name is Magician Zegan.
21:27And he's responsible for all the kidnappings here.
21:31What?
21:32You must be mistaken.
21:35I don't trust these magicians.
21:37Even if there's no one behind these kidnappings,
21:40he's still an executioner that we have to kill.
21:45If that's the case, then give me this responsibility.
21:49Oh!
21:50You've said what was on my mind.
21:52From now on, the responsibility is yours.
