SIGN    Earth Finds a Baby Dragon
[01:41] Earth
    A dragon?
[01:46] Earth
    They all disappeared...
[01:48] Earth
    They were NPCs?
[01:55] Earth
    It wouldn't be right to
    just abandon it, would it?
[02:00] Earth
    Whew!
[02:05] Earth
    What?
[02:06] Earth
    Um...
[02:08] Earth
    Food, maybe?
[02:13] Earth
    I guess this'll work.
[02:21] Earth
    Well, I saved this dragon,
    but now what do I do with her?
[02:28] Earth
    I could go back to First, but...
[02:36] Earth
    No way. I'd stand out too much.
[02:38] Earth
    Maybe the Fairy Kingdom, then?
[02:41] Earth
    But there's a chance that
    bringing this dragon there
[02:45] Earth
    will cause some kind of huge problem...
[02:52] Earth
    I guess the first thing I need to
    do is find some more food for her.
[02:56] Earth
    I did come out here to test
    my new bow, after all.
[03:10] Earth
    Every living thing looks cute 
    when it's a baby, I guess.
[03:23] Earth
    What?
[03:24] Earth
    You want this, too?
[03:26] Earth
    Okay, fine.
[03:28] Earth
    Give me a sec.
[03:37] Earth
    I can't believe it...
[03:44] Earth
    She ate so much food!
[03:49] Earth
    They say journeys are more fun with friends,
[03:51] Earth
    and you should try to help
    people you meet, but...
[03:53] Earth
    I wonder if that goes for dragons, too.
[03:57] Earth
    All right...
[03:59] Earth
    Queen, can you drop by for a second?
[04:02] Fairy Queen
    Hello!
[04:03] Fairy Queen
    I'm here, just like you asked!
[04:04] Fairy Queen
    It's me, your lover, Queenie!
SIGN    Grr
[04:09] Earth
    Sorry, Queen.
[04:11] Earth
    We've got a problem.
[04:12] Fairy Queen
    A problem?
[04:15] Fairy Queen
    What's a baby red dragon doing here?
[04:18] Earth
    So I was right. It's a big deal.
[04:21] Earth
    So this is what happened...
[04:23] Fairy Queen
    I understand what happened.
[04:25] Fairy Queen
    But this is definitely a big problem.
[04:28] Earth
    It's that big a deal?
[04:29] Fairy Queen
    Wild dragons never leave the
     borders of their kingdom,
[04:33] Fairy Queen
    so that their terrible power
    doesn't cause needless conflict.
[04:37] Earth
    Wild dragons?
[04:39] Earth
    Are they different than regular dragons?
[04:41] Fairy Queen
    Yes.
[04:42] Fairy Queen
    They're both extremely powerful, but...
[04:46] Fairy Queen
    The dragons have learned
    to control their power
[04:49] Fairy Queen
    and are starting to learn to get
    along with the other races.
[04:53] Fairy Queen
    But wild dragons have given up
     on controlling their power,
[04:57] Fairy Queen
    and isolated themselves instead.
[04:59] Earth
    Given up on controlling their power?
[05:02] Fairy Queen
    And to make matters worse,
    that's a red dragon.
[05:06] Earth
    What do you mean?
[05:07] Fairy Queen
    Red dragons are much
    stronger than the others.
[05:11] Fairy Queen
    They're a symbol of their nation.
[05:13] Fairy Queen
    The royal family of the Wild Dragon Kingdom.
[05:16] Earth
    And their child was kidnapped?
[05:18] Fairy Queen
    Yes, this is a huge problem.
[05:21] Fairy Queen
    If they find out, there's no telling
    what they might do in their anger.
[05:26] Zephana
    Trouble, Your Highness.
[05:28] Zephana
    There are red dragons
    heading here at top speed.
[05:32] Zephana
    You need to return to the castle...
[05:39] Zephana
    Y-You stupid queen! What are you doing?!
[05:43] Zephana
    Why would you kidnap a red dragon baby?!
[05:47] Fairy Queen
    Wh-What do you mean, stupid?
[05:48] Fairy Queen
    Even I wouldn't do something like that!
[05:51] Zephana
    So what's it doing here, then?
[05:53] Fairy Queen
    It was Earth who...
[05:56] Earth
    So what direction are the
    dragons coming from?
[06:09] Fairy Queen
    There they are.
[06:20] Earth
    They're huge!
[06:21] Earth
    If one of these went on a rampage, 
    it would be a disaster!
[06:24] Dragon Dad
    Was it you who kidnapped our child?!
[06:29] Earth
    I can hear his voice directly in my head...
[06:31] Fairy Queen
    Wait!
[06:33] Fairy Queen
    This man—
[06:33] Dragon Dad
    Silence, Fairy Queen!
[06:36] Dragon Dad
    We're talking to him right now.
[06:43] Dragon Dad
    Child of man, answer us.
[06:45] Dragon Dad
    Why did you kidnap our child?
[06:48] Earth
    I don't know why your child was kidnapped.
[06:50] Earth
    The ones who did it are probably dead.
[06:54] Earth
    I simply found him and took care him.
[06:57] Dragon Dad
    And you expect us to believe that?
[07:02] Earth
    I understand that you doubt me.
[07:04] Earth
    But I'm telling the truth!
[07:11] Dragon Dad
    Very well.
[07:13] Dragon Dad
    Then bring me our child.
[07:19] Dragon Dad
    Do that and I will believe you,
    out of respect for your courage.
[07:26] Fairy Queen
    Earth...
[07:28] Earth
    It's fine.
[07:29] Earth
    It's just fine.
[07:53] Dragon Mom
    Oh, my child!
[07:59] Dragon Dad
    My apologies, child of man.
[08:02] Dragon Dad
    We have just seen our child's memories.
[08:05] Dragon Dad
    What you said is indeed true.
[08:10] Dragon Dad
    You fed her, too, I see.
[08:13] Dragon Dad
    You have my gratitude.
[08:14] Dragon Dad
    I also want to apologize for
    needlessly suspecting you.
[08:19] Dragon Dad
    Ask for anything you want.
[08:21] Earth
    All right, I will.
[08:23] Earth
    Please don't hold the Fairy Kingdom
    responsible for what happened today.
[08:28] Earth
    And pretend that we have never met.
[08:33] Dragon Mom
    I understand why you'd want
    to protect the fairies.
[08:36] Dragon Mom
    But why pretend we never met?
[08:39] Earth
    I prefer peace and quiet.
    I don't want to attract attention.
[08:43] Dragon Mom
    It's not that you don't want to
    be associated with us, correct?
[08:48] Dragon Mom
    Very well, then.
[08:49] Dragon Dad
    Yes. We shall grant your wish.
[08:56] Dragon Dad
    We shall return to our lands, then.
[09:00] Dragon Dad
    Farewell, child of man.
[09:21] Fairy Queen
    It worked, huh?
[09:23] Earth
    Yeah. We got lucky.
[09:25] Fairy Queen
    Thank you for thinking about
    the Fairy Kingdom, too.
[09:30] Fairy Queen
    As Queen, you have my gratitude.
[09:32] Earth
    As Queen, huh?
[09:35] Earth
    She's growing up.
[09:37] Fairy Queen
    What will you be doing now?
[09:40] Fairy Queen
    If you don't have any plans, why not
    come to the castle so I can thank you?
[09:46] Earth
    I'd rather go to a town than the castle.
[09:48] Earth
    I'd like to get some work.
[09:51] Fairy Queen
    I see.
[09:53] Fairy Queen
    I'll see you're given a ride, then.
[09:55] Fairy Queen
    Pikasha!
[10:00] Earth
    Thank you. And if you could—
[10:03] Fairy Queen
    Of course.
[10:04] Fairy Queen
    I will see to it that no one knows that
    you were involved with this.
[10:08] Earth
    Thanks.
[10:09] Earth
    I don't want to attract any more
    attention than I already have.
[10:14] Earth
    All right, I'm counting on you!
[10:15] Fairy Queen
    Yes, leave it to me!
SIGN    Fairy Kingdom East Fort Town
[10:20] Earth
    Huh?
SIGN    Sunflower Tavern
[10:22] Earth
    You're kidding me...
[10:25] Earth
    There's barely any work.
[10:28] Innkeep
    Oh, it's your first time here, huh?
[10:32] Earth
    Um, is there just no demand
    for adventurers here?
[10:36] Innkeep
    No, that's not true.
[10:38] Innkeep
    There were a lot of jobs at first.
[10:41] Innkeep
    But human adventurers took them all.
[10:45] Innkeep
    All the inns are like this now.
[10:48] Earth
    I see.
[10:51] Earth
    Oh, dear.
[10:53] Innkeep
    If you want work that bad,
[10:55] Innkeep
    why not work here while you stay the night?
[11:01] Innkeep
    Table 7's food is ready.
[11:04] Earth
    Okay!
[11:09] Earth
    Let me read your order back to you.
[11:11] Earth
    First...
[11:12] Man
    Hey, I don't have my food yet!
[11:15] Earth
    Sorry!
[11:21] Earth
    Why am I doing the cooking, too?
[11:23] Innkeep
    Here's the next order.
[11:25] Earth
    Okay!
[11:25] Earth
    It's just like being a 
    part-timer at a restaurant!
[11:30] Earth
    It's finally over..
[11:32] Innkeep
    Good work today!
[11:35] Innkeep
    You were a huge help.
[11:39] Innkeep
    Here's your pay!
[11:41] Earth
    Thanks.
[11:44] Earth
    I'll be going to bed.
[11:47] Innkeep
    Thanks. Sweet dreams!
[11:53] Earth
    I started the day by finding a dragon baby,
[11:56] Earth
    and ended it as a part-timer
    at a restaurant...
[11:59] Earth
    One More's really got everything...
[12:07] Earth
    But well, it's kind of fun.
[12:10] Earth
    I could make some money and
    open my own restaurant.
[12:14] Earth
    That might be one way to play...
[12:15] Earth
    You know, I think this game
    has too many things to do.
[12:23] Old Man
    So we all agree to continue 
    running One More, then.
[12:30] Old Man
    Good, good. These results are spectacular.
[12:34] Male 1
    That's all well and good, old man.
[12:36] Male 1
    But how are things looking
    with the two of them?
[12:39] Old Man
    You'll be shocked.
[12:41] Old Man
    Involvement with one of the players
    has caused EA to learn to laugh,
[12:45] Old Man
    and EB to learn to be angry.
[12:49] Female 1
    I was surprised when I first saw it, as well.
[12:52] Female 1
    EA had become almost completely emotionless,
[12:55] Female 1
    and EB reacted by constantly
    acting like a spoiled child...
[13:01] Female 1
    I can't believe the two of them
    have changed so much.
[13:04] Male 2
    Unbelievable.
[13:05] Male 2
    I'd been so focused on showing
    that world to my daughter...
[13:09] Male 2
    I didn't realize there was
    someone like that out there.
[13:12] Female 1
    He's an interesting man.
[13:14] Male 1
    What, you know him?
[13:16] Female 1
    Yes. I'm a player, too.
[13:20] Male 3
    Yes, I'm very curious about this player.
[13:25] Male 3
    But that's all the more reason to
     continue operating the game.
[13:32] Old Man
    Yes. We need One More to 
    train our AIs, as well!
SIGN    "A Challenge from the Departed" PvP Tournament Winner!
    
    The Challenge from the Departed PvP tournament
    was recently held between 20 Liberators in the town of Nexia.
    The winner was a five-man party led by Silver.
    They defeated Glad's party, the pre-tournament favorite,
    as well as Ayame's archer party.
     Silver's party will be awarded 20 million gloh.
[13:43] Earth
    So Silver's party won the "Challenge
    from the Departed" PvP tournament, huh?
[13:50] Earth
    I guess Glad gets to taste the
    agony of defeat this time.
[13:56] Earth
    The wind feels so good...
[13:59] Earth
    It's been a while since this
    game's been so relaxing for me.
[14:05] Earth
    This is actually what I wanted
    when I started this game.
[14:10] Earth
    But I've been attracting attention instead.
[14:15] Earth
    I kind of wonder what I'm doing.
[14:19] Earth
    Well, it was fun, though.
    Being able to run around and move like that...
[14:27] Earth
    When I was little, I used to run 
    around and play all the time.
[14:31] Earth
    But once I got older,
[14:33] Earth
    I was so busy with work, I didn't get 
    a lot of chances to exercise.
[14:38] Earth
    And the next thing I knew,
[14:40] Earth
    I was so out of shape that 
    I was feeling depressed.
[14:44] Earth
    So I decided that I could
     at least come here...
[14:49] Earth
    And it's so much fun to be able to do things
[14:51] Earth
    that I could never do in the real world, 
    even when I was younger.
[14:58] Earth
    So I let things get out of hand.
[15:01] Earth
    'Cause in the real world, my body and my 
    heart don't work like they did when I was little.
[15:09] Earth
    Wait, why am I crying?
[15:13] Earth
    It's not a good idea for me to be alone.
[15:16] Earth
    I think about stuff I shouldn't 
    and get depressed.
[15:21] Earth
    I'm better off when there's 
    crazy stuff going on around me.
[15:27] Earth
    Fortunately, I know lots of crazy people.
[15:33] Earth
    Actually, maybe that means 
    I've been kind of harsh on them.
[15:38] Earth
    I need to be nicer.
SIGN    Eastern City Sezanah
[15:44] Earth
    Or so I thought, but...
[15:46] Earth
    This is way too sudden!
[15:49] Fairy Queen
    What is?
[15:52] Earth
    Nothing.
[15:54] Earth
    Never mind.
[15:55] Earth
    So, what's so urgent you needed to
    summon me here the second I arrived in town?
[15:59] Fairy Queen
    I thought you might want to see me!
[16:03] Earth
    Shaddup!
[16:06] Earth
    And who might you be?
[16:09] Earth
    I was hoping Her Majesty
    might introduce me, but...
[16:15] Green Dragon
    I'm a green dragon. We are wild dragons that
    have the power to control the wind.
[16:19] Earth
    A wild dragon?
[16:21] Earth
    I heard your race tries to avoid
    contact with the other races.
[16:26] Green Dragon
    We green dragons are an exception.
[16:29] Green Dragon
    We're less powerful than the other wild
    dragons, but far faster and more agile,
[16:34] Green Dragon
    and we can take human form, too.
[16:36] Green Dragon
    Thus, we sometimes serve as messengers.
[16:40] Earth
    I see.
[16:41] Earth
    I understand who you are.
[16:43] Earth
    But...
[16:45] Earth
    What would someone like that want with me?
[16:48] Green Dragon
    You really have no idea why I'm here?
[16:51] Earth
    I'm not sure...
[16:55] Earth
    All I can think of is that
    I returned the red dragon baby.
[16:59] Earth
    But they agreed to pretend
    that never happened.
[17:01] Green Dragon
    Yes.
[17:02] Green Dragon
    There's actually a problem
    with the young lady.
[17:06] Earth
    A problem?
[17:07] Green Dragon
    Yes.
[17:08] Green Dragon
    After returning to our kingdom...
[17:14] Green Dragon
    she's nearly stopped eating entirely.
[17:17] Earth
    Huh?
[17:19] Green Dragon
    If she's going to grow up into a big,
    strong dragon, she needs to eat.
[17:24] Green Dragon
    But she...
[17:27] Green Dragon
    She only eats about half what
    a normal dragon her age eats!
[17:33] Green Dragon
    And not only that...
[17:35] (Flashback) Dragon Baby
    Teach me how to become human!
[17:39] Green Dragon
    She came to us and asked that...
[17:42] Earth
    And you've been told to find out why?
[17:46] Green Dragon
    Yes. Do you have any idea?
[17:50] Earth
    No, not really.
[17:52] Earth
    When I found her, she ate a whole lot.
[17:56] Green Dragon
    Really?
[17:57] Earth
    Yes.
[18:01] Fairy Queen
    Hey.
[18:03] Fairy Queen
    Don't you suppose that
    your cooking was just too good?
[18:14] Fairy Queen
    What did you feed her?
[18:17] Earth
    Soup and Hamburg steak... a lot of both...
[18:22] Green Dragon
    Soup? Hamburg steak?
[18:24] Green Dragon
    What are those things?
[18:26] Earth
    They're, um... well...
[18:32] Earth
    Did I screw up?
[18:36] Green Dragon
    This is delicious!
[18:39] Green Dragon
    I can see why the young lady isn't
    interested in our food anymore!
[18:43] Fairy Queen
    Right?
[18:44] Fairy Queen
    His cooking is the best.
[18:47] Earth
    Ahem.
[18:50] Green Dragon
    Sorry, can I have seconds?
[18:51] Fairy Queen
    Me, too!
[18:53] Earth
    You may not have seconds!
[18:55] Earth
    What did you even come here for?
[18:57] Earth
    And Queen! Don't expect
    me to cook for you, too!
[19:01] Green Dragon
    I-I'm sorry.
[19:03] Green Dragon
    I don't know what came over me.
[19:05] Green Dragon
    Um...
[19:06] Green Dragon
    Can you please make some more?
    I want to take it back for her.
[19:11] Earth
    Look, I can't just...
[19:13] Green Dragon
    Please!
[19:14] Green Dragon
    If I go back without any,
     they'll be infuriated with me!
[19:19] Earth
    But I don't have the ingredients!
[19:21] Green Dragon
    Then I shall procure them!
[19:26] Earth
    Does he have to go that far?
[19:32] Green Dragon
    Thank you!
[19:36] Green Dragon
    I'll be going, then.
[19:38] Green Dragon
    Just you wait, young lady!
[19:42] Earth
    Hey, didn't you say the wild dragons
    didn't interact with the other races?
[19:47] Fairy Queen
    Yes, that's how it usually works.
[19:50] Fairy Queen
    But you may have just changed that.
[19:55] Earth
    I feel tired all of a sudden.
[19:57] Earth
    I'm going back to the inn.
[20:03] Fairy Queen
    You should come to the castle this time.
[20:06] Fairy Queen
    I'll prepare the best room
    we have for you.
[20:09] Earth
    And then you'll sneak
    into the bed, won't you?
[20:12] Earth
    I can tell exactly what you're up to!
[20:16] Fairy Queen
    Wait!
[20:17] Earth
    Farewell!
[20:18] Earth
    Jump!
[20:19] Fairy Queen
    Wait, Earth!
[20:23] Earth
    I know I said I'd be nicer, 
    but there are limits!
[20:27] Earth
    Still, those wild dragons...
[20:29] Earth
    Did I just open relations with an 
    isolated race with my cooking?
[20:45] Dragon Baby
    Another plate!
[20:47] Green Dragon
    Understood.
[20:49] Dragon Dad
    What's going on?
[20:50] Dragon Dad
    What is this?
[20:52] Green Dragon
    This is cooking, Sire!
[20:55] Dragon Dad
    Cooking!
[20:57] Green Dragon
    Indeed.
[20:58] Green Dragon
    A technology that makes
    food even more delicious.
[21:02] Green Dragon
    She simply missed the taste of this.
[21:09] Dragon Dad
    Astonishing...
[21:10] Dragon Dad
    I had no idea that
     child of man had such a skill.
SIGN    Several Days Later
[21:22] Green Dragon
    No luck, huh?
[21:26] Green Dragon
    I've gotten to the point 
    where it looks right,
[21:28] Green Dragon
    but it tastes... terrible.
[21:34] Green Dragon
    I guess it's pointless to
    try and imitate its appearance
[21:36] Green Dragon
    without learning the basics of the art.
[21:42] Green Dragon
    Should I ask the king for
    permission to go learn from him?
[21:47] Green Dragon
    No, it wouldn't be appropriate
    for a proud wild dragon to...
