[Camera shows a view of the Netherworld]

[Words appear on screen as a voice narrates]

King Krichevskoy, the mighty ruler of the Netherworld...

His long reign came to an abrupt end as the news of his death spread throughout
the dark land.

Ambitious demons rose one after another to seize the opportunity, and thus
began the age of turbulence and anarchy.

Two years later...

[Fade to black]

[Camera shows a view of a castle, followed by a view of a dark room with all
lights off]

Voice: Prince.

[Flash of white light comes over the screen]

Voice: Prince, wake up.

[More white flashes come over the screen, followed by light coming over the
room]

[The room then lights up due to a fire being started within it; multiple
weapons are scattered throughout the room, and in the middle lies an opened
casket with a young boy sleeping in it]

[Girl takes a few steps toward the bed, then puts her hand on her hips]

Girl: This brat just won't wake up.
Girl: Well, if that's the case... there's only one thing left to do.

[Girl pulls out a gun and points it toward the boy]

Boy: ...What fool dares awaken me, the great Laharl?

[Boy sits up in the casket, blinks a few times, then shakes his head]

Girl: Prince! I'm glad you're still alive.

[Girl puts the gun away, and Laharl then stands up to face her]

Laharl: Who said I was dead? I was just taking a nap.

[Laharl looks around]

Laharl: Anyways... Why are all those weapons behind you?

[Girl looks behind her at the weapons]

Girl: Well, I was having a hard time waking you up...
Laharl: Are you sure you weren't trying to kill me instead?
Girl: No... Ah... I mean, yes. I just wanted to wake you up.
Laharl: Hmph... Whatever.
Laharl: ...so, what is it?
Laharl: You better have a good reason for waking me up.
Girl: Oh, yeah.

[Girl lifts her hands up]

Girl: Big news. Your father, King Krichevskoy, has died.
Laharl: He what...!? When!?

[Girl puts her hands back down]

Girl: Two years ago.

[Laharl turns to his left, then closes his eyes]

Laharl: ...wait a second.

[Laharl turns back toward the girl]

Laharl: So... you're telling me that I've been sleeping for over 2 years?
Girl: Yup.

[Laharl looks at the girl in shock]

Laharl: "Yup"...!? Why didn't you wake me up earlier!?

[Girl leans back and puts her hands behind her head]

Girl: Excuse me, but what do you think I've been doing all this time?
Girl: The Netherworld has gone to hell while you were sleeping.

[Girl looks to her right]

Girl: It's not my fault if some other demon steals the title of Overlord.
Laharl: What...? Have they forgotten whose title they are trying to steal!?

[Laharl turns to his left and crosses his arms with a smile]

Laharl: Hmhmhm...
Laharl: How bold of them! I shall show no mercy... for I am Laharl, the
        rightful heir to the throne!
Laharl: Haaaahahahaha!!!!

[Girl walks toward the casket]

Girl: Your humble vassal, Etna, will accompany you.

[Etna joins the party]
