[00:13] ---
    Why am I on the floor?
[00:48] ---
    "Banished from the Hero's Party, I Decided
    to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside"
[02:05] ---
    "Let's Start Our Quiet Life Together"
[02:07] ---
    Morning.
[02:08] ---
    Morning. Sleep well?
[02:11] ---
    Not really.
    Maybe I'm not used to that bed.
[02:15] ---
    I got it for next to nothing,
    so I'm not surprised.
[02:19] ---
    But that's not really why
    I had trouble sleeping.
[02:26] ---
    This looks so good!
[02:31] ---
    It is good!
[02:33] ---
    Eat up.
[02:35] ---
    We have a busy day ahead.
[02:37] ---
    Okay!
[02:40] ---
    First, I'll go buy a bed,
[02:42] ---
    then go home and get some paintings
    that'll look good in the shop.
[02:46] ---
    Paintings?
[02:48] ---
    The impact of artwork
    is nothing to sneeze at.
[02:51] ---
    Placing the right piece of art
    is sure to boost sales.
[02:55] ---
    Really? I never heard of that.
[02:58] ---
    We also have to go ask the Zoltan Council
    to approve your new pain killer.
[03:03] ---
    It'll probably take some negotiating.
[03:06] ---
    Leave the negotiating to me.
[03:08] ---
    About my salary...
[03:11] ---
    How about 1.5, which comes out
    to 30 perills a month?
[03:16] ---
    That's a reasonable salary
    for live-in help.
[03:20] ---
    For Rit, though, it seems low.
[03:23] ---
    But what if she says
    she doesn't need a salary?
[03:26] ---
    I'd probably insist on a higher amount
    more suited to what she offers.
[03:31] ---
    Okay, let's go with that.
[03:33] ---
    Great!
[03:37] ---
    Wait a second.
[03:39] ---
    Did she say she wanted to live here
    so I wouldn't worry about her salary?
[03:44] ---
    Don't tell me she had it all planned out?
[03:48] ---
    Thanks, Rit.
[03:49] ---
    Huh?
[03:51] ---
    Oh, sure, my pleasure?
[03:58] ---
    Zoltan is far removed from the
    threat of the Demon Lord's army
[04:02] ---
    and doesn't send troops to the front.
[04:05] ---
    It's a land with no need for the Hero.
[04:09] ---
    A land with no need for the Hero?
[04:12] ---
    Sometimes I feel like something's missing.
[04:15] ---
    You do?
[04:16] ---
    But I didn't join Ruti
    and the rest of you.
[04:21] ---
    I could've found a life adventuring
    with you and your party satisfying, but...
[04:29] ---
    Being here is the right answer for me.
[04:32] ---
    We have left the blood-soaked
    path of the Hero.
[04:37] ---
    We now walk the land of Zoltan
    simply as Red and Rit.
[04:46] ---
    Stormy, you there?
[04:47] ---
    If it isn't, Lady Rit! Thank you
    for choosing to shop at my--
[04:53] ---
    What's Red doing here?
[04:55] ---
    Well, it's a long story.
[04:57] ---
    I decided to move in with Red.
[05:00] ---
    So I'm here to buy a bed.
[05:06] ---
    Congratulations!
[05:08] ---
    Red, you lucky dog, you!
[05:11] ---
    Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
[05:13] ---
    Wait. I think you've got the wrong idea.
[05:17] ---
    Hey, Storm. You weren't nearly
    this nice to me when I shopped here.
[05:21] ---
    Customers who haggle 30 minutes
    over a cheapo bed
[05:25] ---
    don't get treated like those who
    pay full price for a quality product!
[05:28] ---
    Good point.
[05:31] ---
    This walnut wood double bed is perfect!
[05:34] ---
    Make it a single!
[05:36] ---
    "Tsk!"
[05:36] ---
    Wimp.
[05:38] ---
    "Wanna piece of me?"
[05:38] ---
    Say that again!
[05:42] ---
    Wimp.
[05:50] ---
    The bed won't fit in my item box,
    so please deliver it to the shop.
[05:55] ---
    Okay, you got it.
[05:57] ---
    Thanks for your business!
[06:02] ---
    There's lots of good stuff
    at Stormy's shop.
[06:05] ---
    Stormthunder has the Craftsman Blessing,
    and he's leveled it way up.
[06:09] ---
    Wow, Red. You can tell
    how high a Blessing's level is!
[06:12] ---
    I found out after helping him hunt
    monsters in lieu of paying for a purchase.
[06:17] ---
    I see.
[06:19] ---
    The Almighty Demis grants
    a Divine Blessing
[06:23] ---
    to all living things at birth.
[06:25] ---
    Lineage and education have no
    impact on the Blessing granted.
[06:30] ---
    "Strategist"
[06:30] ---
    Orphans from the slums have been granted
    the Strategist and General Blessings.
[06:35] ---
    "General"
    "Thief"
[06:35] ---
    And those of royal birth have been
    granted the Thief Blessing.
[06:40] ---
    Their success depends on whether
    they can level up their Blessing.
[06:46] ---
    So then the question is,
    how does one level up?
[06:51] ---
    There's but one way.
[06:53] ---
    You must battle and slay someone
    who has a Blessing.
[06:58] ---
    It's the same with all Blessings,
    whether they're battle-related or not.
[07:02] ---
    People kill each other to
    level up their Blessings.
[07:08] ---
    This world is ripe with violence.
[07:15] ---
    Tanta!
[07:19] ---
    You okay?
[07:22] ---
    You son of a...!
[07:27] ---
    Is that a skill?
[07:28] ---
    Hey, stop it!
[07:29] ---
    That's enough!
[07:32] ---
    Butt out!
[07:38] ---
    At your level, you should be
    fighting monsters with the adults.
[07:43] ---
    You talk tough, but all you got
    is that crappy bronze sword!
[07:51] ---
    Tanta, you okay?
[07:53] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[07:59] ---
    You okay, too?
[08:00] ---
    Y-Yeah, but...
[08:02] ---
    His name's Red.
[08:04] ---
    He's my friend. He's also
    an apothecary and adventurer.
[08:07] ---
    Wow, really?
[08:08] ---
    That's why he's so strong.
[08:10] ---
    This is my friend, Al.
[08:11] ---
    Al, it looks like your knee's hurt.
[08:13] ---
    Huh?
[08:15] ---
    We gotta patch you up.
[08:18] ---
    Miss Rit.
[08:19] ---
    Wait, what are you doing with Red?
[08:23] ---
    Because we're good friends.
[08:25] ---
    I moved in with him yesterday.
[08:27] ---
    What?! I didn't know
    you had it in you, Red!
[08:30] ---
    Good grief.
[08:35] ---
    That should do it.
[08:37] ---
    It'll feel better in a few days.
[08:39] ---
    Thank you.
[08:41] ---
    Why were you fighting?
[08:43] ---
    It was the other guy's fault.
[08:44] ---
    We were playing, but he told us
    to scram 'cause we were in his way.
[08:48] ---
    He's already developing his Blessing.
[08:51] ---
    That was a pretty good attack for a kid.
[08:54] ---
    Ademi wasn't always so violent.
[08:59] ---
    But he's been a real hothead lately.
[09:01] ---
    He must've discovered his Blessing.
[09:03] ---
    That's what happens?
[09:06] ---
    Divine Blessings also affect
    a person's personality.
[09:11] ---
    What do you mean?
[09:13] ---
    For example, with the Craftsman Blessing,
    you'll start to like making things.
[09:17] ---
    And with the Mage Blessing,
    your thirst for knowledge will grow.
[09:21] ---
    So what's Ademi's Blessing?
[09:23] ---
    He probably has the Bar Brawler Blessing.
[09:26] ---
    Bar Brawler?
[09:28] ---
    It's a Blessing focused on fighting
    with whatever's at hand.
[09:32] ---
    They'll use anything they have as
    a weapon, like rocks or booze jugs.
[09:36] ---
    They have skills for knocking people
    over or through the air and so on.
[09:40] ---
    The problem is, Ademi has a really
    high affinity for his Blessing.
[09:44] ---
    An affinity?
[09:45] ---
    Skills grow stronger when your nature
    gives you an affinity for your Blessing.
[09:51] ---
    So Ademi is a natural-born brawler.
[09:53] ---
    A natural-born brawler?
[09:55] ---
    What a crappy Blessing.
[09:57] ---
    Yeah, you hit the nail on the head.
[10:00] ---
    It would be great if all Blessings
    were socially acceptable.
[10:04] ---
    But some aren't, and they
    can steer people toward evil.
[10:10] ---
    Ademi's Blessing makes him resort to
    violence when encountering obstacles.
[10:17] ---
    I see.
[10:19] ---
    You needn't worry about it.
[10:20] ---
    His Blessing had a powerful--
[10:22] ---
    I don't want a Blessing.
[10:25] ---
    Don't say that!
[10:26] ---
    The Church elders
    won't like it if they hear you!
[10:30] ---
    Have you discovered
    what your Blessing is yet?
[10:33] ---
    Yes. I have the Weapon Master Blessing.
[10:36] ---
    Wow, I'm impressed!
[10:38] ---
    That's a fighter-type Blessing which
    enables you to master a weapon.
[10:42] ---
    But if it means I'm gonna be like Ademi...
[10:50] ---
    Al, I know exactly how you feel.
[10:52] ---
    Coming to terms with
    your Blessing can be scary.
[10:55] ---
    After all, it can determine
    the life you lead.
[10:59] ---
    Rit has the Spirit Scout Blessing.
[11:03] ---
    That means she is a scout
    for forest dwellers.
[11:06] ---
    "Spirit Scout"
    Maybe Rit couldn't live
    quietly in the castle
[11:09] ---
    "Spirit Scout"
    because her Blessing craves freedom.
[11:14] ---
    But no matter what Blessing you have,
    you'll always be who you are.
[11:19] ---
    Really?
[11:20] ---
    Blessings are but a part of you.
[11:22] ---
    For example, a normally gentle mother may
    sometimes raise holy hell when angry.
[11:28] ---
    I see.
[11:29] ---
    You're a sum of the parts
    that make you who you are,
[11:32] ---
    including your Blessing.
[11:33] ---
    You're not a slave to your Blessing.
    It's a part of you that you can control.
[11:38] ---
    Do that, and your Blessing
    will prove quite useful.
[11:42] ---
    Really?
[11:43] ---
    Yeah. The Weapon Master Blessing
    gives you lots of skills for overcoming
[11:48] ---
    fear and chaos as long you
    have your mastered weapon.
[11:51] ---
    Um, I'm kinda afraid of the dark.
    Will it help me get over that?
[11:56] ---
    Sure! You won't be afraid,
    no matter how dark it is.
[11:59] ---
    That's a relief! Thanks, Mr. Red!
[12:02] ---
    Al, let's get going.
[12:04] ---
    All right.
[12:06] ---
    Come by our shop any time you're
    feeling anxious about something.
[12:10] ---
    That's if you don't mind advice
    from a B-rank adventurer.
[12:14] ---
    Thanks!
[12:17] ---
    Can I come over to play...
    even if I don't need advice?
[12:22] ---
    Sure. I'll even make you something to eat.
[12:25] ---
    Hurray!
[12:28] ---
    Bye-bye!
[12:30] ---
    Well, we should get going, too.
[12:33] ---
    We gotta go get Red and Rit's Apothecary's
    future hit product approved!
[12:37] ---
    You sure about this?
[12:40] ---
    Once we change the shop's name,
[12:42] ---
    I won't let you off so easy
    if you want to quit.
[12:44] ---
    Are you saying you want me
    to stay here forever?
[12:59] ---
    I said no! No, no!
[13:02] ---
    B-But...
[13:04] ---
    My concoction is less addictive than--
[13:07] ---
    I'm a busy man. Now get that
    out of my face and scram!
[13:13] ---
    We've no choice but to go over his head!
[13:16] ---
    It's worth a shot.
[13:17] ---
    Aye-aye, Captain!
[13:18] ---
    Miss Rit, I never expected you to team up
    with someone. You always worked solo.
[13:23] ---
    This should be interesting.
[13:25] ---
    So, what can I do for you?
[13:26] ---
    Well...
[13:29] ---
    I see.
[13:31] ---
    I must apologize for that, but your
    timing couldn't have been worse.
[13:35] ---
    Has something happened?
[13:37] ---
    We discovered that a remedy
    we approved about a month ago
[13:41] ---
    is being misused as an illegal narcotic.
[13:45] ---
    It's spreading on the black market
    to everyone from townsfolk to nobles.
[13:49] ---
    It was only approved a month ago?
[13:53] ---
    The new remedy was
    mass-produced outside of town,
[13:58] ---
    and once it was approved,
    it flooded the market.
[14:02] ---
    Its maker was clearly targeting
    illicit use from the start.
[14:06] ---
    This fiasco has done great harm
    to our reputation.
[14:11] ---
    Dan, who is in charge of the new remedy,
[14:14] ---
    has been dealing with
    angry townsfolk non-stop.
[14:17] ---
    I see.
[14:19] ---
    But since this request is from you,
    Miss Rit, I'll personally approve it.
[14:25] ---
    You'd really do that?
[14:27] ---
    Thank you!
[14:32] ---
    Sorry for making you
    do all the heavy lifting.
[14:35] ---
    No need to apologize.
[14:37] ---
    Yeah, but I did say,
[14:38] ---
    "Leave the negotiating to me,"
    like an idiot.
[14:44] ---
    I'm just happy that I can help you.
[14:47] ---
    And I wanna keep doing so.
[14:50] ---
    I'd do anything for you!
[14:54] ---
    Thank you, Rit. I, um...
[15:00] ---
    We'll make a great team.
[15:02] ---
    I know!
[15:08] ---
    My new concoction was approved.
[15:10] ---
    But it will take a while before
    its efficacy is widely known.
[15:15] ---
    Yeah, the shop needs a hit remedy that
    is fast-acting in the sales department.
[15:22] ---
    A hit remedy?
[15:24] ---
    Any revolutionary ideas for something
    customers will want to buy at all costs?
[15:29] ---
    Let's eat while we think it over.
[15:31] ---
    Great idea!
[15:34] ---
    You really are a good cook, Red!
[15:36] ---
    How about serving food
    along with your concoctions?
[15:39] ---
    Don't be silly.
    My Cooking skill is really low.
[15:44] ---
    I can't compete with a professional chef.
[15:47] ---
    Plus, I've never heard of
    an apothecary that serves...
[15:52] ---
    An apothecary that serves food?
[15:54] ---
    What is it?
[15:55] ---
    Let's give it a try.
[16:00] ---
    What's that?
[16:01] ---
    A nutritional supplement.
[16:04] ---
    It's good for colds and exhaustion,
    and for preventing illness.
[16:09] ---
    But it's difficult to take
    because it's so bitter.
[16:13] ---
    Apple jam?
[16:15] ---
    I'm using my Cooking skill
    to make the bitterness
[16:18] ---
    accentuate the jam's sweetness.
[16:27] ---
    And my Prep skill lets me bake
    without destroying nutritional value.
[16:34] ---
    I get it. It's medicine in cookie form.
[16:38] ---
    Now for the final test.
[16:40] ---
    Yummy!
[16:42] ---
    This just might work!
[16:43] ---
    Definitely!
[16:48] ---
    Get your free samples from Red
    and Rit's Apothecary right here!
[16:53] ---
    It can help prevent colds!
[16:55] ---
    Medicine without the bitterness!
[16:57] ---
    Would you like to try one?
[16:59] ---
    They're also good
    for post-battle exhaustion.
[17:01] ---
    Get your free samples here!
[17:06] ---
    Would you like to try one?
[17:09] ---
    Cookies?
[17:11] ---
    No thanks.
[17:14] ---
    Welcome.
[17:16] ---
    Our daughter caught a cold
    and now has a fever.
[17:19] ---
    I heard you sell medicinal cookies.
[17:22] ---
    We sure do. Would you like to try one?
[17:26] ---
    They contain that
    bitter medicine, don't they?
[17:31] ---
    It's delicious! My daughter
    won't mind eating this!
[17:34] ---
    I'd like one, too!
[17:36] ---
    My pleasure!
[17:49] ---
    We sold 'em all.
[17:51] ---
    Yeah.
[17:55] ---
    Yay!
[17:58] ---
    It's all thanks to you, Rit!
[18:00] ---
    Y-You really think so?
[18:02] ---
    You just made my day.
[18:04] ---
    Without you,
[18:06] ---
    I'd probably still be twiddling my thumbs
    without a customer in sight.
[18:11] ---
    Rit! Thank you for being there for me!
[18:15] ---
    S-Sure.
[18:16] ---
    I'm so happy I can be here with you, Red.
[18:19] ---
    I'll never forget each and
    every word you just said!
[18:31] ---
    I'm sick of this!
[18:37] ---
    Do you even realize how much time
    we've wasted in this desert?!
[18:40] ---
    The desert dwellers are useless,
[18:42] ---
    and we haven't a single lead
    for the weapon we're after.
[18:46] ---
    And now you want to go back
    to resupply again?!
[18:48] ---
    It can't be helped, now can it?
[18:51] ---
    The previous Demon Lord's weapon
    isn't going to be easy to find.
[18:56] ---
    I did my best trying to negotiate
    with the desert dwellers,
[19:00] ---
    but they are a lowly people who
    won't even obey the king of this land.
[19:05] ---
    The state of supplies and negotiations
    was never this bad when Gideon was here.
[19:10] ---
    Are you saying I'm less useful than him?
[19:12] ---
    I'm a Sage, so I have no need
    for his common skills.
[19:15] ---
    Whatever! I'm gonna go find Gideon!
[19:19] ---
    You can't do that.
[19:21] ---
    Please, wait!
[19:23] ---
    I only joined this party
    because it seemed like
[19:26] ---
    a shortcut to defeating the Demon Lord.
[19:29] ---
    But there's nothing for me here
    if that's no longer true!
[19:39] ---
    Banishing Gideon from the party
    was a fatal mistake, Ares.
[19:45] ---
    He left of his own free will.
[19:51] ---
    Danan, you're going
    to look for my brother?
[19:54] ---
    M-Milady!
[19:57] ---
    We need Gideon in our party.
    Surely even you...
[20:02] ---
    Even what?
[20:04] ---
    What I mean is...
[20:09] ---
    I'll allow it. Now go.
[20:13] ---
    Danan.
[20:15] ---
    Find my brother.
[20:19] ---
    We will continue our journey.
[20:24] ---
    Ruti...
[20:32] ---
    So, what now?
[20:36] ---
    I've no choice but to go.
[20:38] ---
    You don't think Ares would've killed
    Gideon because he was in his way, do you?
[20:46] ---
    Yarandrala suspected he might have.
[21:00] ---
    She was in tears.
[21:04] ---
    She likely recognized
    Sir Gideon's abilities.
[21:08] ---
    He was a skilled fighter.
[21:11] ---
    I was impressed how he could fight
    that well with only common skills.
[21:17] ---
    He was a tactician worthy of respect.
[21:20] ---
    Yet you never failed to criticize
    his combat blunders.
[21:24] ---
    Th-That's just the kind of man I am.
[21:27] ---
    Mistakes are bound to repeat
    unless they're called out.
[21:31] ---
    But I swear on my Blessing,
[21:34] ---
    I never once thought Gideon
    was a liability to our party.
[21:38] ---
    Then I suppose you'll tell
    him so when you see him.
[21:45] ---
    We both know Sir Gideon
    is a worthy fighter.
[21:47] ---
    That means a lot coming from you,
    the greatest martial artist of our times,
[21:51] ---
    and me, acting master of the Temple
    Knight's style of spear fighting.
[21:55] ---
    No matter how skilled a mage Ares is,
    he'd be hard-pressed to slay a knight
[22:01] ---
    revered by two skilled
    combatants such as us.
[22:04] ---
    Good point. Gideon yet lives.
[22:09] ---
    I'm off to find him!
