[00:03] Natalie
    Ten pieces of goblin rune stone
    and 20 medicinal herbs.
[00:06] Natalie
    Okay! Looks like it's all here.
[00:09] Natalie
    You've passed the trial! Congratulations.
[00:12] Natalie
    The Horizon Adventurer's Guild
    hereby recognizes Rein Shroud
[00:16] Natalie
    as an F-rank adventurer.
[00:20] Natalie
    Here is your adventurer's card.
[00:22] Natalie
    It's your identification from now on,
    so take good care of it.
[00:25] Rein
    Right. Thank you.
[00:27] Natalie
    And this is your reward. Fifty copper coins.
[00:32] Natalie
    It was an F-rank job,
    so it's not much, but...
[00:36] Natalie
    Still, as your rank goes up,
    you'll be paid even more,
[00:39] Natalie
    and given how quickly you passed the trial,
[00:42] Natalie
    I'm sure you'll be promoted in no time!
[00:45] Natalie
    Good luck!
[00:47] Rein
    Thanks.
[00:48] Rein
    If I'm going to work on increasing my rank,
    I'll want lodgings to operate out of...
[00:53] Rein
    But the amount I just
    got paid won't cover it.
[00:56] Rein
    Okay!
[00:59] Kanade
    Rein!
[01:01] Rein
    Sorry about the wait, Kanade.
[01:02] Kanade
    Welcome back!
[01:04] Kanade
    So, are you an adventurer now?! Huh?!
[01:07] Rein
    Yep, I sure am.
[01:08] Kanade
    Really?! Congratulations!
[01:11] Rein
    Thanks.
[01:12] Rein
    I actually wanted to start accepting jobs...
[01:15] Rein
    Is that okay with you, Kanade?
[01:16] Kanade
    Yep! No problems here! Let's go!
[01:19] Adventurer A
    Well, hell, you don't see this every day.
[01:28] Adventurer A
    A bona-fide Cat Spirit.
SIGN    Beast Tamer
SIGN    Comrades
[03:03] Rein
    Do you need something?
[03:04] Adventurer A
    Never seen a real one in person.
[03:07] Adventurer A
    What's a Cat Spirit like you
    doing in a place like this?
[03:12] Kanade
    I've got nothing to say to you, buster!
[03:14] Adventurer A
    Aw, no need to be cold.
[03:17] Adventurer A
    How about we have some drinks?
[03:19] Adventurer A
    It's bound to be more fun than hanging
    out with this boring looking brat.
[03:22] Kanade
    Hey!
[03:23] Kanade
    Don't you mock my master!
[03:27] Kanade
    Rein tamed me, got it?!
[03:29] Adventurer A
    Huh? Tamed...?
[03:32] Rein
    I'm a Beast Tamer.
[03:37] Adventurer A
    Don't be stupid, kid!
[03:39] Adventurer A
    Cat Spirits are one of the ultimate species.
[03:42] Adventurer A
    How's a runt like this
    supposed to tame one?
[03:45] Kanade
    That just goes to show
    how bad a judge you are.
[03:48] Kanade
    Rein is an amazing Beast Tamer,
    and way stronger than you!
[03:53] Rein
    Kanade...
[03:57] Adventurer A
    So this shrimp's supposed to
    be stronger than me?
[04:01] Adventurer A
    In that case...
[04:03] Adventurer A
    Let's see who's really stronger
    between you and me.
[04:07] Adventurer A
    And the girl will be the prize.
[04:10] Rein
    Kanade...?
[04:11] Adventurer A
    You're not gonna chicken out, are you?
[04:14] Adventurer A
    Not when you're the kinda mighty Beast
    Tamer that can tame a Cat Spirit...
[04:18] Adventurer A
    Someone like me shouldn't be
    much of a challenge at all.
[04:21] Rein
    I don't care what he says about me,
[04:24] Rein
    but if I avoid this, he's likely to come
    after Kanade again in the future.
[04:33] Kanade
    Rein!
[04:35] Adventurer A
    Found your nerve, huh?
[04:38] Rein
    She'd be in danger.
[04:40] Rein
    I can't let that happen!
[04:43] Adventurer A
    Don't cry if I end up snapping
    your twig of an arm.
[04:46] Adventurer A
    There's a rare Cat Spirit on the line.
[04:49] Adventurer A
    Maybe my luck's turning around.
[04:52] Rein
    Even if it's futile...
    I have to do whatever I can!
[04:57] Adventurer A
    Ready... go!
[05:03] Kanade
    Rein wins!
[05:07] Adevnturer A
    Ow...!
[05:07] Natalie
    Okay, what's all the commotion?
[05:12] Natalie
    You again?
[05:14] Natalie
    My apologies, Rein.
[05:16] Natalie
    The guild's actually
    been aware of his antics,
[05:17] Adventurer A
    It hurts so bad! What the hell?!
[05:19] Adventurer A
    You stupid brat! Stupid... brat!
[05:20] Natalie
    and has been considering
    suspending his license...
[05:27] Natalie
    You have our sincere apologies.
    I can take it from here.
[05:32] Rein/Kanade
    O-Okay.
[05:35] Natalie
    I must ask, Rein...
[05:38] Natalie
    How did you end up contracted
    with an ultimate species
[05:41] Natalie
    during the course of your trial?
[05:42] Natalie
    That came as a much bigger surprise to me!
[05:45] Rein/Kanade
    S-Sorry...
[05:48] Natalie
    My apologies! My inner voice was leaking out.
[05:51] Natalie
    Well, since you were able to
    find such a powerful partner,
[05:54] Natalie
    I'm sure we can expect
    great things from you!
[05:58] Natalie
    Until then!
[06:04] Rein
    How'd I do that?
[06:06] Rein
    I shouldn't be so strong.
[06:10] Kanade
    Did you not notice, Rein?
[06:13] Kanade
    When you're contracted with
    a powerful species like mine,
[06:16] Kanade
    it amplifies your own strength,
    as the master, as a result.
[06:20] Kanade
    Which means right now, you're about
    as strong as a Cat Spirit, Rein!
[06:26] Rein
    I'm strong like you now?
[06:29] Rein
    That's like something out of a dream.
[06:31] Kanade
    You honestly had no idea?
[06:33] Rein
    No.
[06:34] Rein
    I mean, no one back home ever contracted
    with someone from an ultimate species, so...
[06:39] Rein
    And I was just desperate, back there.
[06:41] Kanade
    Oh, I see!
[06:43] Kanade
    Well, I was super happy
    when you protected me like that!
[06:50] Rein
    I mean... why wouldn't I be?
[06:53] Kanade
    Okay! It's about time we get to that job!
[06:56] Kanade
    I'm gonna work hard!
[06:58] Kanade
    Or so I thought, but...
[07:01] Kanade
    Why? Why this?
[07:03] Kanade
    Why more herb gathering?
[07:06] Kanade
    You are an adventurer, right?!
[07:08] Kanade
    Shouldn't you be looking
    for a legendary sword,
[07:10] Kanade
    or rescuing kidnapped princesses?!
[07:12] Kanade
    How about a job like that?!
[07:14] Rein
    I'm still at the bottom with an F-rank.
    That means only basic jobs.
[07:19] Rein
    We'll just have to handle jobs like this
    until we've got more experience...
[07:24] Kanade
    Okay, then. I understand.
[07:26] Kanade
    I'm gonna work hard!
    And yank all this grass out!
[07:29] Rein
    Okay, good job finding them.
[07:32] Rein
    Thanks. This should cover our quota!
[07:36] Kanade
    Again with this?!
[07:40] Kanade
    It's no fair!
[07:42] Kanade
    I'm your familiar, so I want to help you.
[07:49] Kanade
    Where do a bunch of temps
    get off hogging all the credit?!
[07:53] Rein
    Well, we got the amount we needed,
    so let's report back to the guild.
[07:56] Kanade
    Wait!
[07:58] Rein
    Kanade?
[07:59] Kanade
    Something's happening over there.
[08:01] Kanade
    I can hear yelling and...
[08:04] Kanade
    Screams, I think?
[08:06] Rein
    Let's check it out!
[08:10] Bandit A
    Looks like your guards all
    left you hanging, gramps!
[08:13] Bandit B
    They took off the second they
    realized we were the Ebon Fangs.
[08:18] Bandit C
    How's it feel? Huh?
[08:20] Bandit C
    Having the adventurers you
    hired abandon you like this?
[08:24] Rein
    The Ebon Fangs?
[08:26] Kanade
    I heard about them while I was traveling.
[08:28] Kanade
    They're a major band of brigands,
    with over a hundred members!
[08:31] Kanade
    They have a reputation all over
    for the things they do,
[08:33] Kanade
    and the things they do are really awful!
[08:36] Kanade
    This is dangerous. Let's go get help.
[08:39] Rein
    No. I don't think we'll have enough time.
[08:40] Merchant
    Please, spare my life!
[08:42] Bandit B
    "Hey, as long as you drop your wares,
    we couldn't care less about you."
[08:47] Bandit B
    Did you really think it'd be that easy?!
[08:50] Merchant
    P-Please, no!
[08:52] Rein
    We have to stop this.
[08:54] Rein
    I want to save him.
[09:01] Kanade
    That's my master for you!
[09:05] Rein
    I'll jump in among them.
[09:07] Rein
    You protect the old man, Kanade.
[09:10] Kanade
    Got it!
[09:11] Rein
    Here we go...
[09:14] Bandit D
    What the...?
[09:21] Kanade
    Mister, are you okay?
[09:22] Merchant
    Y-Yes...
[09:23] Kanade
    This way!
[09:24] Bandit F
    Who's this brat?!
[09:26] Bandit H
    Slaughter him!
[09:28] Kanade
    To be absolutely honest, I was nervous.
[09:33] Kanade
    Rein has the kind of potential
    to redefine what a Beast Tamer is.
[09:38] Kanade
    And on top of that, he's gained the power
    of a Cat Spirit through our contract.
[09:43] Kanade
    I would never think forming
    this contract was a mistake.
[09:48] Kanade
    But... what if he has trouble
    adapting to his newfound strength?
[09:54] Kanade
    Would it negatively affect his mind?
[09:58] Kanade
    Could it cause him to self-destruct?
[10:02] Kanade
    I know what his orders were,
[10:04] Kanade
    but I think it'd be safer if I was
    the one fighting on the front lines.
[10:18] Kanade
    Wow...
[10:20] Kanade
    It's like I was worried for nothing.
[10:28] Kanade
    I can't look away from Rein as he fights.
[10:33] Kanade
    What is this?
[10:38] Kanade
    My heart is pounding!
[10:43] Rein
    That ought to do it.
[10:45] Rein
    Kanade, everything okay on your end?
[10:50] Rein
    Yep! He doesn't seem hurt at all.
[10:53] Rein
    Well, that's good to hear.
[10:56] Rein
    You're bright red! Were you hurt somehow?
[10:58] Kanade
    No, no! This is nothing!
[11:01] Kanade
    M-More importantly, Rein, that was amazing!
[11:03] Kanade
    You did all that, without any weapons!
[11:06] Rein
    Well, to make sure we don't hurt the animals
    we're trying to tame with weapons,
[11:11] Rein
    we were taught martial arts.
[11:13] Kanade
    Wow, is that right?
[11:15] Merchant
    Excuse me, but the two of you
    really did save me from grave danger.
[11:19] Rein
    Oh, we're just glad you're okay.
[11:22] Rein
    But isn't a merchant traveling
    without guards a little dangerous?
[11:26] Merchant
    Actually, I had hired some, but...
[11:29] Merchant
    They took off the second things
    took a turn for the worse.
[11:31] Rein
    They sound terrible.
[11:34] Merchant
    They're of no concern, now.
[11:36] Merchant
    I'm more worried about reprisals
    from the Ebon Fangs
[11:39] Merchant
    when they find out their men
    have been beaten...
[11:41] Merchant
    You need to escape!
[11:43] Merchant
    Everyone who has defied
    them has been killed!
[11:47] Rein
    They're really that dangerous?
[11:51] Rein
    I guess we should capture them all, then.
[11:55] Kanade
    Uh, Rein?
[11:59] Kanade
    Hey, are you serious about doing this?
[12:02] Rein
    If they're as violent and vindictive
    as they sound, we could run,
[12:05] Rein
    but that merchant and the people
    in town might end up in danger.
[12:10] Rein
    I can't just let that happen.
[12:12] Kanade
    But we're talking about
    over a hundred bandits...
[12:16] Kanade
    Isn't that biting off a bit much?
[12:17] Rein
    Not exactly.
[12:19] Rein
    I've actually got a plan.
[12:26] Rein
    Looks like that's their hideout.
[12:28] Rein
    Thanks for the tip.
[12:31] Rein
    As for what we're gonna do... Kanade?
[12:35] Kanade
    I wanted to find the hideout!
[12:37] Kanade
    But an animal beat me to it again!
[12:40] Kanade
    I'm supposed to be Rein's familiar,
    but I've been totally useless!
[12:45] Rein
    C-Come on, that's not true!
[12:47] Kanade
    Oh, hey, ants...
[12:49] Rein
    Really, Kanade, you've been a huge help.
[12:54] Kanade
    I'm just goofing around.
[12:55] Kanade
    So, Rein, what's this plan you have?
[12:58] Rein
    Well, it involves the temporary contract...
[13:01] Rein
    That I made with this guy.
[13:03] Kanade
    A bee?
[13:04] Rein
    These are actually called Ahrbees,
    and they're a little special.
[13:08] Rein
    They've got a paralytic sting that will put
    anyone who's hit by it down for 12 hours.
[13:12] Kanade
    Wow! Wait...
[13:15] Kanade
    Aren't bees insects?
    How can you tame them?
[13:19] Rein
    Oh, that. Have you heard of Insect Tamers?
[13:23] Kanade
    Insect...?
[13:25] Rein
    They're a sub-class of Beast
    Tamer that tames bugs.
[13:29] Rein
    I went through the training
    back home for a while.
[13:33] Rein
    I haven't quite mastered it, but...
[13:36] Kanade
    That's still amazing! Having the
     skills from two classes?
[13:41] Kanade
    The surprises never end with Rein.
[13:44] Rein
    You think so?
[13:46] Rein
    Anyway, I'm going to send
    the bees after the bandits.
[13:50] Rein
    I want you to run to town
    and get some reinforcements.
[13:53] Kanade
    Roger! Wait...
[13:55] Rein
    Shh!
[13:58] Kanade
    Rein, you keep doing all
    the dangerous parts yourself.
[14:03] Kanade
    Am I really any help as a familiar?
[14:06] Rein
    Kanade, like I said before...
[14:08] Kanade
    It's fine! I just wanted to say it.
[14:11] Leane
    But what reinforcements do you mean?
[14:13] Rein
    Well, arresting a hundred bandits
    will require extra hands,
[14:17] Rein
    so I want you to bring adventurers
    and the order of knights.
[14:19] Kanade
    The order of knights?
[14:21] Rein
    They're tasked by the government
    with upholding the peace across the land.
[14:25] Rein
    Since we're dealing with bandits,
    they're bound to come running.
[14:28] Kanade
    Okay, got it!
[14:30] Kanade
    But, just be careful, okay?
[14:32] Kanade
    Knowing you, it'll be fine, but...
[14:35] Rein
    I'll run away if it gets dangerous. I promise.
[14:38] Kanade
    Okay! I'll be right back
    with that help, then.
[14:44] Rein
    Looks like he brought his friends.
[14:57] Rein
    Okay, here we go...
[15:05] Leane
    Did they follow us?!
[15:06] Mina
    It seems... we managed to escape.
[15:10] Leane
    What a nightmare.
[15:13] Leane
    I thought it'd be a good way
    to kill some time
[15:15] Leane
    and earn some coin until
    we took on the Lost Woods.
[15:18] Leane
    And it should have been an easy job!
[15:20] Leane
    I can't believe we had to run
    from a bunch of scumbag bandits!
[15:26] Leane
    We would've been better off schmoozing it up
    with Arios and Aggath instead.
[15:33] Mina
    You were the one who said
    that seemed "like a drag," Leane.
[15:37] Leane
    Because it would be.
[15:38] Leane
    I don't know why the Hero's
    party is expected
[15:40] Leane
    to suck up to anyone
    who isn't royalty, anyway.
[15:45] Leane
    But right now, more than any of that...
[15:48] Leane
    I've got a bone to pick with you!
[15:50] Leane
    Isn't buying time for spell casters
    in the rear the most basic of basics?!
[15:56] Leane
    Where do you get off
    running away like that?!
[15:59] Mina
    True enough.
[16:00] Mina
    I'm amazed you accepted this job,
    even temporarily, considering...
[16:04] Adventurer B
    Look, I already told you!
[16:07] Adventurer B
    I'm a Beast Tamer,
    and not cut out for combat!
[16:10] Leane
    Are you trying to put this on us?
[16:14] Leane
    Even someone as useless as Rein
    could fight on the front lines...
[16:17] Adventurer B
    I d-don't even know who that is!
[16:20] Mina
    Then why weren't you more
    thorough in scouting out the area?
[16:24] Mina
    Did you honestly think a single squirrel
    was enough to gain the lay of the land?
[16:29] Leane
    Yeah! You should've just
    tamed ten or twenty.
[16:33] Leane
    Where do you get off slacking,
    you taming trash?!
[16:36] Adventurer B
    What are you even talking about?
[16:38] Adventurer B
    That's not even possible!
[16:41] Adventurer B
    Forget ten. Most people
    can't even tame two at once!
[16:45] Adventurer B
    Fundamentally, a single Beast Tamer
    tames a single beast at a time!
[16:50] Adventurer B
    If you tried to tame
    more than one at once,
[16:52] Adventurer B
    it'd be enough to burn out
    your nervous system!
[16:55] Adventurer B
    And you two have been making
    all these crazy demands
[16:57] Adventurer B
    when you don't even know that?!
[17:01] Leane
    What is this?
[17:03] Leane
    What does that say about him, taming dozens of animals at once so easily?
[17:11] Leane
    Okay, fine.
[17:14] Leane
    It's clear you're useless, and a liar.
[17:17] Leane
    Well...
[17:19] Leane
    We can hardly have people learning
[17:22] Leane
    that members of the Hero's
    party screwed up like this.
[17:25] Leane
    Which is why you're going to
    take responsibility for accepting
[17:29] Leane
    and failing this job on your own.
[17:31] Leane
    Got it?
[17:32] Adventurer B
    B-But my reputation will be...
[17:35] Leane
    I have over a thousand spells.
[17:38] Leane
    Mina has healing magic
    that can even raise the dead.
[17:43] Leane
    Maybe you'd be more cooperative after dying
    and being resurrected a few times...?
[17:47] Adventurer B
    O-Okay!
[17:49] Adventurer B
    Fine then!
[17:51] Leane
    This has been a huge waste of time.
[17:53] Mina
    Truly.
[17:55] Mina
    And all of that nonsense he spoke...
[17:57] Mina
    He was making it sound as if Rein was—
[18:00] Leane
    Dealing with this garbage has me exhausted!
[18:02] Leane
    Let's get back already.
[18:04] Mina
    I suppose so. Arios and Aggath
    should be nearly done.
[18:09] Leane
    Wasting our time with those stupid lies...
[18:11] Leane
    That piece of trash, Rein?
[18:13] Leane
    There's no way he's actually
    any good at anything.
[18:16] Bandit O
    Whole body's numb...
[18:18] Bandit P
    Can't move...
[18:21] Rein
    Looks like that went smoothly.
[18:24] Rein
    Good work! And thanks.
[18:29] Kanade
    Rein! I got help!
[18:34] Adventurer C
    The little lady filled us in on the details.
[18:36] Adventurer C
    I'm impressed you were able
    to deal with the Ebon Fangs.
[18:39] Adventurer D
    Then again, you were already
    impressive back at the guild.
[18:42] Adventurer D
    Well, you can leave the cleanup to us!
[18:44] Rein
    Thanks. That'd be a huge help.
[18:48] Rein
    Actually, I only see adventurers.
[18:50] Adventurer D
    The knights aren't coming.
[18:52] Adventurer D
    "We've no time to deal with
    mere cutpurses," apparently.
[18:55] Adventurer C
    You two should let us take it from here.
    You already took care of the hard part.
[19:04] Rein
    Thanks for calling them so quickly.
[19:07] Rein
    You're probably tired, huh?
[19:08] Kanade
    Nah, I'm fine!
[19:11] Kanade
    I'm glad I was able to help you, Rein!
[19:14] Rein
    Yeah. And now it looks
    like this is taken care—
[19:18] Rein
    What is that sound?!
[19:19] Kanade
    Rein... this is bad, I think those are...
[19:36] Rein
    No way! King Lizards?!
[19:39] Rein
    What's the equivalent
    of C-ranked monsters doing here?!
[19:43] Bandit O
    We were keeping them around
    for just this kind of occasion!
[19:46] Bandit O
    Hey! Go ahead and wipe them—
[19:53] Rein
    This is no good, they're going berserk!
[19:57] Kanade
    Rein!
[19:58] Rein
    Yeah!
[20:02] Adventurer C
    He was able to hurt a King Lizard?!
[20:04] Kanade
    There's more where that came from!
[20:11] Adventurer D
    Damn...
[20:13] Rein
    Take the bandits and get clear of the cave!
[20:15] Adventurer D
    B-But we can't just...
[20:18] Rein
    It's okay! We'll handle it.
[20:22] Adventurer C
    Okay.
[20:23] Adventurer C
    Everybody, move!
[20:25] Adventurer C
    Don't you dare die!
[20:27] Adventurer C
    This way! Quickly!
[20:28] Adventurer D
    We'll see you later!
[20:30] Rein
    I wonder what the old me would have done?
[20:33] Rein
    The person who traveled with Arios' party
[20:36] Rein
    would've probably realized
    he couldn't do anything.
[20:39] Rein
    But things are different now.
[20:48] Rein
    Kanade is with me.
[20:54] Rein
    And with her...
[21:02] Adventurer C
    It's been a while since we left the cave.
[21:06] Adventurer D
    Yeah.
[21:07] Adventurer E
    Taking on that many King Lizards...
    You've gotta imagine they're...
[21:23] Adventurer E
    You're amazing, buddy!
[21:24] Adventurer F
    You too, miss!
[21:26] Adventurer F
    She really is an ultimate species!
[21:27] Adventurer G
    Hooray!
[21:28] Adventurer G
    This is incredible!
[21:30] Rein
    Everyone's acknowledging me.
[21:32] Rein
    Me, the person who was kicked out
    of the Hero's party for being useless.
[21:43] Rein
    Her being an ultimate species or my familiar...
[21:46] Rein
    Those things don't really matter.
[21:49] Rein
    Thank you, Kanade.
[21:53] Rein
    With you by my side,
    I get the feeling I can do anything!
[21:59] Kanade
    Rein...
[22:01] Kanade
    Yeah!
SIGN    Another Ultimate Species
[23:36] Kanade
    Next Time: "Another Ultimate Species."
