[00:01] TISSE
    Sorry for showing up at this hour.
[00:04] RIT
    It's okay. We don't mind.
[00:06] RED
    What is it? Something important?
[00:08] TISSE
    Do you remember Cardinal Ljubo?
[00:11] RED
    Yeah. I saw him at the
    Great Last Wall Fortress.
[00:16] TISSE
    He's looking for the former
    demon lord's airship.
SIGN    Banished from the Hero's Party,
    I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside 2nd
SIGN    The Man Who Doesn't Get Chill Living
[01:55] RED
    "Masked Knight Escarlata"
[01:58] RED
    "defeats Altra of the Water,
    general of the demon lord's army,"
[02:01] RED
    "and forces Altra into retreat."
[02:03] RIT
    I wonder who she serves.
[02:05] RIT
    The Church? Or...
[02:07] RED
    It seems she's a mercenary.
[02:09] RIT
    Oh.
[02:11] RIT
    You know, the former demon lord's
    airship, which Tisse brought up...
[02:17] RIT
    Are you sure you want to
    hand it over to the Church?
[02:20] RIT
    I think they'll put it to much better
    use than letting it rot away in Zoltan.
[02:24] RIT
    If they want to misuse it,
    we should stop them,
[02:28] RIT
    but for the time being,
    we'll wait and see.
[02:29] RIT
    Okay.
[02:31] RED
    Our top priority right now is
    making sure nobody finds Ruti.
[02:37] RED
    Looks like the cold mold's gone.
[02:43] RED
    The herbs are growing nicely, too.
[02:46] TISSE
    Yeah.
[02:47] RUTI
    It's thanks to your advice, Big Brother.
[02:50] RUTI
    And also because Tisse was with me.
[02:53] TISSE
    Right. I'm having a lot of fun growing
    this farm with Miss Ruti, too.
[02:58] RED
    We'll have to think of a sales plan soon.
[03:02] RED
    Let's start with my apothecary.
[03:04] RED
    I'll buy your first harvest.
[03:06] RUTI
    Okay.
[03:07] RED
    We should try talking to the
    Merchants' Guild, Zoltan's clinics,
[03:12] RED
    and also traveling merchants.
[03:15] RUTI
    You'll help us out?
[03:17] RED
    Yeah. I'm a member of the Merchants' Guild,
[03:21] RED
    and your mentor in Zoltan chill living.
[03:25] RUTI
    Master Big Brother!
[03:28] RUTI
    Master Big Brother...
[03:30] TISSE
    Hm?
[03:33] RUTI
    A lovely phrase.
[03:54] RED
    You look in good shape.
[03:56] DANAN
    Good enough.
[03:57] DANAN
    The rest I'll regain through combat.
[04:01] RED
    You're going to leave Zoltan
    once you're discharged?
[04:03] RED
    I'll miss you.
[04:05] DANAN
    Then come with me.
[04:07] DANAN
    Let's go massacre the demon lord's army!
[04:09] RED
    Nah. I've decided to live here
    and run my apothecary with Rit.
[04:14] DANAN
    That so? Too bad.
[04:16] RED
    Let's go get a drink while you're still here.
[04:19] DANAN
    Sure. But there's something I need
    to do before I bid you goodbye.
[04:24] RED
    What?
[04:26] DANAN
    Gideon.
[04:29] DANAN
    Spar with me.
[04:33] RIT
    And you accepted?
[04:36] RED
    Yeah.
[04:37] RED
    He insisted he wanted to
    before leaving Zoltan.
[04:41] RED
    I'll have to train like crazy.
    I've probably lost my edge by now.
[04:44] RIT
    Can you win?
[04:46] RED
    Honestly, not a chance.
[04:48] RED
    Danan's Blessing is Martial Artist.
[04:50] RED
    It's a common Blessing,
[04:52] RED
    but nobody out there has loved their Blessing,
    and been loved by it in turn, as much as him.
[04:56] RIT
    Oh...
[04:57] RED
    Meanwhile, I'm the Guide.
[05:00] RED
    I only have common skills
    meant to protect a young Hero.
[05:04] RED
    It's obvious how this will go.
[05:07] RIT
    But you're still going to spar?
[05:09] RED
    Yeah.
[05:11] RIT
    Huh...
[05:12] RIT
    In that case, could you spar with me, too?
[05:17] SIGN
    What's with the look...
[05:18] RIT
    I mean, we haven't ever sparred before.
[05:21] RIT
    It'll be fine if you cast Merciful.
[05:24] RIT
    I bet you're gonna use it against Danan, too.
[05:28] RED
    Well, sure, if I cast the spell,
    I won't scar or injure my opponent.
[05:34] RED
    But it'll still hurt.
[05:41] RED
    I can't!
[05:42] SIGN
    Gah
[05:50] RED
    I'm so rusty.
[05:52] RED
    I'll end up disappointing Danan this way.
[05:55] RIT
    Here, be sure to hydrate.
[05:58] RED
    Thanks.
[06:00] YARANDRALA
    Red!
[06:02] YARANDRALA
    I hear you're fighting Danan!
[06:05] RED
    Word gets around, huh?
[06:08] YARANDRALA
    That means I'm perfect for the job.
[06:11] YARANDRALA
    Train with me to regain
    your combat instincts!
[06:15] RIT
    But aren't you a spirit mage?
[06:20] YARANDRALA
    Believe it or not, I'm the founder
    of the Lotus-Style Staff Technique.
[06:24] RIT
    What?! That style's famous everywhere!
[06:24] SIGN
    Lotus-Style
    Staff
    Technique
[06:28] RED
    That's not all.
[06:30] RED
    You know that book detailing
    various regions' military tactics?
[06:34] SIGN
    100 Strategies:
    The Beauty of War
    Compiled by Yarandrala
[06:34] RED
    The famous 100 Strategies:
    The Beauty of War?
[06:36] RED
    She compiled that, too.
[06:39] RIT
    Whoa!
[06:41] YARANDRALA
    I'm not just living out
    my years doing nothing.
[06:45] YARANDRALA
    So, back to the topic at hand...
[06:48] YARANDRALA
    What you need right now, Red,
    is to sharpen your mind.
[06:52] YARANDRALA
    It's not easy to regain your past skills.
[06:56] YARANDRALA
    But your mind must possess a different
    kind of strength than it did in the past!
[07:00] RED
    True. I've gained a lot
    since I moved to Zoltan.
[07:05] RED
    Then I guess I'll train in a way
    that plays to Red's strengths.
[07:09] YARANDRALA
    That's the spirit!
[07:11] YARANDRALA
    Then let's get right to
    planning the training camp.
[07:13] RIT
    Training camp?
[07:14] YARANDRALA
    You're coming too, of course.
[07:21] RUTI
    Did you wait long, Big Brother?
[07:23] RED
    Nah, I just got here.
[07:27] TISSE
    You just wanted to play
    that scene out, didn't you?
[07:31] TISSE
    "Did you wait long?" "No, I just got here."
[07:33] RED
    Is that so? It's adorable how
    much she cares for her brother.
[07:37] RUTI
    Did you wait long, Big Brother?
[07:39] RED
    Nah, I just got here.
[07:41] RUTI
    Did you want long, Big Brother?!
[07:42] RED
    Nah? I just got here.
[07:44] RUTI
    Big Brother, did you—
[07:45] TISSE
    Anyway, are you sure you can
    handle training with Miss Ruti?
[07:50] RED
    I'm the one who taught
    her the sword, you know?
[07:53] RED
    There's no way a teacher and
    student can't train together.
[07:56] RUTI
    I'm really looking forward
    to training with you.
[07:59] DANAN
    A training camp is a method to grow stronger,
[08:02] DANAN
    and it's also the ultimate
    form of recreation.
[08:05] RED
    Danan! Were you discharged?
[08:07] DANAN
    Yeah. And you know just how
    much I love training camps.
[08:12] DANAN
    So I'm joining ya!
[08:14] RED
    That's so you. Sure, join us.
[08:18] DANAN
    Yeah!
[08:26] RED
    All right. That just leaves firewood...
[08:28] TISSE
    Hey...
[08:39] YARANDRALA
    Hey! Don't go around
    destroying the ecosystem!
[08:44] DANAN
    All right! I'm going on another firewood run!
[08:47] RED
    Yeah, that's all wrong.
[08:49] RIT
    The first meal of training camp
    is Red's custom training lunch!
[08:57] RIT
    Oh, right. I don't think
    we have any for you, Danan.
[09:01] RUTI
    You can have mine.
[09:02] DANAN
    I couldn't!
[09:06] RUTI
    Don't worry. The pangs of hunger
    are also a new experience for me.
[09:11] TISSE
    Let's go halfsies, Miss Ruti.
[09:13] YARANDRALA
    You can have half of mine, too.
[09:20] RUTI
    Half and half makes one whole.
[09:23] RUTI
    That doesn't seem right.
[09:26] RED
    Wait, wait. Let's try this instead.
[09:29] RED
    Now we all grab whatever we want.
[09:31] RUTI
    That's my Big Brother!
[09:33] DANAN
    My bad.
[09:34] DANAN
    But since you're offering,
    I'll happily indulge!
[09:45] RED
    Say something, dude.
[09:50] DANAN
    It's been a long time since the
    Hero's party got together like this.
[09:54] RED
    We're missing Theodora... and Ares, though.
[10:01] DANAN
    True that.
[10:04] DANAN
    Did you see the newspaper?
[10:06] DANAN
    The news about that mystery mercenary
    who fought off Astra of the Water?
[10:11] RED
    You mean the Masked Knight Escarlata?
[10:14] DANAN
    That's gotta be Theodora.
[10:16] DANAN
    There ain't another knight on this
    continent who can best a general.
[10:21] RED
    And then there's Escarlata's right-hand man,
[10:26] RED
    the knight with a prosthetic right arm.
[10:28] RED
    That must be Albert.
[10:31] DANAN
    Oh, him? I haven't thanked
    him for saving me yet.
[10:35] DANAN
    I'm planning to meet up with Theodora
    first thing after leaving Zoltan.
[10:39] DANAN
    If she wants to go finish
    off the Water General,
[10:42] DANAN
    then I'll happily join her.
[10:45] YARANDRALA
    I still haven't tried the
    duck sauté, you know.
[10:49] DANAN
    Like I care.
[10:51] YARANDRALA
    Hey, stop that!
[10:52] DANAN
    Why, you...
[10:54] RUTI
    Yubby.
[10:56] YARANDRALA/DANAN
    Ruti!
[11:00] DANAN
    Okay, let's get to it!
[11:06] RIT
    Should we get train, too?
[11:08] YARANDRALA
    Sounds good.
[11:09] RUTI
    There's something else I want to do.
[11:11] TISSE
    Miss Ruti?
[11:58] RUTI
    That was, like... kind of
    not what I was expecting.
[12:03] TISSE
    Really? It was exactly what I expected.
[12:07] RUTI
    Right.
[12:08] TISSE
    What were you imagining?
[12:12] RUTI
    Something smells nice.
[12:14] TISSE
    I heard Rit and Yarandrala
    are making dinner tonight.
[12:19] RUTI
    This should be good.
[12:24] DANAN
    Your swordplay makes your foe visible.
[12:27] RED
    My foe?
[12:28] DANAN
    Yeah. I can see exactly who you're
     cutting down with your moves.
[12:33] RED
    Yeah, well, I'm picturing them in my mind.
[12:37] DANAN
    People, elves, monsters, demons.
[12:40] DANAN
    I can clearly see a different
    foe of yours each time.
[12:45] DANAN
    That shows how adaptable your tactics are.
[12:48] DANAN
    Sparring with you will be fun!
[12:50] RED
    Likewise.
[13:06] RIT
    Shall I wash your back?
[13:15] RED
    I'll take you up on that.
[13:25] RED
    Training with him today really
     drove home how strong Danan is.
[13:29] RED
    I think he's the strongest human
    out here except for Ruti.
[13:33] RIT
    Yeah, I felt the same.
[13:37] RED
    But sparring with him is neither
    a sport nor a fight to the death.
[13:41] RED
    It has an objective outside
    of winning and losing.
[13:44] RIT
    And what's that?
[13:46] RED
    Danan's a warrior to the core.
[13:48] RED
    The farthest thing from a chill life.
[13:50] RED
    Through our battles, I want to show
    him how I've chosen to live my life.
[13:55] RIT
    He's a friend who you've been
    on adventures with, after all.
[13:58] RIT
    I hope he understands.
[14:01] RED
    Yeah.
[14:10] YARANDRALA
    Okay, I'm casting Merciful.
[14:16] YARANDRALA
    You won't get injured, but know that
    this spell doesn't dampen pain.
[14:25] RUTI
    No hard feelings.
[14:29] RUTI
    Begin!
[14:35] DANAN
    Martial Art:
[14:36] DANAN
    Rampaging Kick!
[14:59] DANAN
    Martial Art: Pulverizing Punch!
[15:10] DANAN
    It really is just a normal sword.
[15:12] DANAN
    I'm supposed to be far stronger than you,
[15:15] DANAN
    but you saw through all my moves and even
    made contact with me using your sword.
[15:23] DANAN
    You're fun, Gideon.
[15:26] DANAN
    You really are fun.
[15:28] RED
    You've figured out how to win,
    though, haven't you?
[15:31] DANAN
    Yeah. You're only dealing with my attacks
[15:36] DANAN
    because you're predicting them.
[15:40] RED
    There's no way I'd be able
    to defend myself otherwise.
[15:44] DANAN
    In that case, I can simply win with
    moves I wouldn't normally use.
[15:47] DANAN
    Holding back a little is all it'll take.
[15:50] RED
    I guess. Well? Are you going to hold back?
[15:54] DANAN
    Hell no.
[15:56] DANAN
    This is a sparring match,
     not a battle to the death.
[15:59] DANAN
    I'm gonna fight you at my absolute peak!
[16:04] RED
    I expected nothing else!
[16:07] DANAN
    Here I come, Gideon.
[16:09] DANAN
    If you're seeing through me at full strength,
[16:13] DANAN
    I'll just show you I can go beyond!
[16:17] RED
    Bring it, Danan.
[16:19] RED
    I'll match you using everything
    I've gained in my life so far!
[16:28] DANAN
    Gideon!
[16:30] RED
    Danan!
[16:38] RED
    Ow... I should've known
     I couldn't handle a direct hit.
[16:43] RED
    I'd be a goner if it weren't
    for Yarandrala's spell.
[16:48] DANAN
    You really are strong, Gideon.
[16:51] RED
    I hope I didn't disappoint you.
[16:53] DANAN
    Of course not.
[16:55] DANAN
    I don't get this chill life business.
[16:58] DANAN
    That's exactly why I wanted to spar with you.
[17:02] DANAN
    Fighting's the only thing I'm good for.
[17:04] RED
    So, did you understand anything
    about the chill life?
[17:08] DANAN
    Not a thing.
[17:10] DANAN
    But, Gideon... No, Red.
[17:13] DANAN
    I saw that your swordplay has an
    underlying, unrelenting strength.
[17:17] DANAN
    You are still that strong man
    I've come to respect.
[17:20] DANAN
    You just chose another path.
[17:22] DANAN
    This chill living thing could
    be a different form of strength.
[17:26] DANAN
    Do your damnedest to live happily ever after.
[17:28] RED
    Thank you, Danan.
[17:30] DANAN
    I fight because I constantly desire battle.
[17:33] DANAN
    That's my source of pride.
[17:35] RED
    Right. I respect your
    relentless strength, too.
[17:43] RUTI
    Danan. My turn next.
[17:46] DANAN
    What? I can spar with the strongest Hero?!
[17:50] DANAN
    Not even in my wildest dreams...
[17:55] DANAN
    Darn it! How can I win?
[18:03] TISSE
    I feel so bad for him.
[18:06] RUTI
    Sorry.
[18:15] RED
    If it isn't Albert!
[18:17] ALBERT
    It's been a while.
[18:19] RED
    Talk about a surprise.
    You're back in Zoltan?
[18:22] ALBERT
    I just got here today.
[18:25] ALBERT
    I'm glad to see you well,
    Mister Red, Miss Rit.
[18:28] RED
    "Mister" Red? That feels weird.
[18:32] ALBERT
    Please don't bring up who I used to be.
[18:35] RED
    Is Theodora with you?
[18:37] ALBERT
    I came alone.
[18:39] ALBERT
    She's currently going by
    the name of Escarlata.
[18:43] ALBERT
    And I bring you a message from her.
[18:46] RED
    A message?
[18:48] ALBERT
    "A new Hero has appeared."
[18:52] ALBERT
    "He is Van of Flamberge."
[18:55] ALBERT
    "He may make his way to Zoltan in order to
     take the former demon lord's airship."
[19:08] VAN
    What a ruckus.
[19:09] LAVENDER
    Everyone's having fun.
[19:13] VAN
    Stay close, Lavender. It's not safe.
[19:16] LAVENDER
    But you'll protect me, won't you?
[19:19] VAN
    Of course. I'll keep you
    safe with all I have.
[19:22] LAVENDER
    Gosh! I could do anything for you, Van!
[19:28] BEARD
    What have you been grinning at?!
[19:31] LEATHERMAIL
    W-Well, this is self-defense now.
[19:37] LEATHERMAIL
    I-I... I gotta kill people every now and
    then to keep my Blessing in control!
[19:45] LEATHERMAIL
    Any of his friends around?
[19:48] LEATHERMAIL
    Why don't you attack me to avenge him?!
[19:52] LEATHERMAIL
    Come on! Come at me!
[19:55] LEATHERMAIL
    I-I beg of you! Give me your life!
[19:55] VAN
    A Wrongdoer Blessing, huh?
[20:07] VAN
    The evil is gone.
[20:13] ESTA
    What happened here?
[20:15] LAVENDER
    Van just struck down a strange fellow.
[20:18] VAN
    Right. I killed him because
    he murdered someone.
[20:23] ESTA
    I need a full explanation.
    Why did the fight break out?
[20:26] VAN
    Huh? Is that important?
[20:30] ESTA
    It is important to know
    what motivated the killing.
[20:33] ESTA
    You could have easily captured him alive.
[20:37] ESTA
    You should have interrogated him first.
[20:40] VAN
    Why should I? You do realize he had
     a Wrongdoer Blessing, I assume?
[20:46] ESTA
    But everyone here is human.
[20:48] ESTA
    People's lives involve more than
    their Blessings' urges alone.
[20:51] ESTA
    Every person has their own free will.
[20:54] ESTA
    You must never forget that.
[20:56] VAN
    You're mistaken.
[20:58] ESTA
    What?
[20:59] VAN
    Oh, no, I don't mean to imply
    that what you're saying is wrong.
[21:05] VAN
    I did not hate him, nor was I trying
    to stop any further killings.
[21:11] VAN
    Using the Hero's blade to satisfy
    personal desires is wrong.
[21:14] VAN
    Not to mention, my battles are all
    offerings to the Almighty Demis.
[21:18] ESTA
    Why, then, did you kill him?
[21:20] VAN
    People with Wrongdoer exist to
    be taken down by someone else.
[21:25] VAN
    I killed him so he could fulfill his role.
[21:30] VAN
    And I certainly did feel I grew
    as Hero when I killed him.
[21:36] VAN
    I offer love and blessings to his life.
[21:39] VAN
    My Blessing, which has now
    grown at the cost of his life,
[21:42] VAN
    will surely save the world one day.
[21:44] ESTA
    Van, why are you so...
[21:46] LJUBO
    The words of a true Hero indeed.
[21:49] VAN
