[00:00] Wolf
    I'm sorry this is so sudden.
[00:03] Wolf
    I've been scheduled to deploy on a campaign.
[00:06] Wolf
    I hope you'll allow me to keep
    our promise at a later date.
[00:13] Dahlia
    This kraken tape is working nicely!
    There may be even more ways to use it.
[00:28] Dahlia
    I hope Wolf's all right.
[00:38] Dahlia
    Oh, dear.
[00:42] Dahlia
    Ah, it's solid ice...
[00:49] Dahlia
    I think it's going to rain after all.

    We can't use fire, and they aren't
    in a spot the wind will reach easily.

[02:26] Grat
    I'd like to say we'll handle them in one
    go with water, but we can't do that.
[02:30] Wolf
    It seems goats have been taken
     from a village nearby.
[02:33] Wolf
    It's only a matter of time
     before people are taken, too.
[02:36] Grat
    It's more work, but our only option
     is to encircle them and attack.
[02:40] Wolf
    Captain.
[02:42] Wolf
    If I take point and break away from our force,
    I should be able to draw the goblins out.
[02:48] Grat
    It's rare for you to suggest a strategy.
[02:51] Wolf
    I'd like to finish this quickly if we can.
[02:55] Grat
    All right. We'll move at sunset.
[02:57] Grat
    Get ready.
[02:58] Wolf
    Yes, sir.
[03:01] Grizelda
    For Wolfred to suggest a strategy like
    that shows how much he's grown.
[03:06] Grad
    He was in such a hurry to
    get himself killed before.
[03:09] Grad
    One day, I'd like to promote him
    to a leadership role in our unit.
[03:18] Wolf
    All right. Let's get this over with...
[03:21] Wolf
    ...and get home!
[03:39] Drino
    Wolf, you like white wine, right?
[03:41] Wolf
    Actually, I'd prefer red today.
[03:44] Drino
    Sure thing! Just a minute.
[03:45] Grizelda
    Well, that's a mission safely wrapped up.
[03:48] Alfio
    To think Wolf calculated his actions so
    the offensive would take less time...
[03:53] Grat
    Indeed.
[03:55] Grat
    I'm truly looking forward
    to seeing what he does next.
[03:58] Wolf; internal
    Now I'll have the second of the month off.
[04:02] Wolf
    Hello!
[04:04] Wolf
    I'm here!
[04:07] Dahlia
    W-Welcome. What have you got there?
[04:11] Wolf
    Meat, fish, vegetables, and fruit.
    I also have wine and cheese.
[04:17] Wolf
    Since I ate so much last time,
    I brought all this as thanks.
[04:22] Dahlia
    It's far too much.
[04:24] Wolf
    There's an ice magic stone attached,
    so it should be all right for a few days.
[04:29] Dahlia
    Thank you.
[04:31] Wolf
    Is this your refrigerator?
[04:33] Dahlia
    Yes. It's still just a prototype, though.
[04:36] Wolf
    It's unusual to see one with two tiers.
[04:38] Dahlia
    Actually, one of them freezes things.
[04:41] Wolf
    A refrigerator and freezer in one?
[04:47] Dahlia
    That's the theory.
[04:49] Wolf
    Have you already decided on a vendor?
[04:52] Dahlia
    This is just a prototype, so I'm going
    to try it out in my kitchen upstairs.
[04:56] Dahlia
    But it's heavy, so I plan to ask my friend
    in the Transport Guild to move it for me.
[05:01] Wolf
    Why don't I carry it up now? It looks like
    it could hold everything I bought for you.
[05:06] Dahlia
    Really, it's quite heavy.
[05:08] Wolf
    It's lighter than I thought.
[05:11] Dahlia
    Wow...
[05:12] Dahlia
    I'll go get us something to drink.
    You just relax here.
[05:15] Wolf
    Thank you.
[05:33] Dahlia
    What's this?
[05:35] Wolf
    Wine glasses. I thought you
    might need them during meals.
[05:40] Dahlia
    This is high-quality crystal that's
     been imbued with magic.
[05:44] Dahlia
    How much did these cost?
[05:45] Wolf
    Four gold coins.
     They weren't terribly expensive.
[05:52] Dahlia
    Wolf, I don't know how I feel about
    you gifting me such nice glasses.
[05:56] Wolf
    You say that, but you're trying
     to give me my glasses for free.
[06:01] Dahlia
    That's because they're just a prototype.
[06:04] Wolf
    But I've been using them without issue.
[06:07] Wolf
    I think you should regard them
    as a finished product.
[06:11] Dahlia
    I appreciate the thought.
[06:14] Dahlia
    However, as your friend,
[06:16] Dahlia
    I'd rather not be in the position of
    simply receiving without reciprocating.
[06:25] Wolf
    I'm sorry.
[06:27] Wolf
    When you say it like that,
     I finally understand.
[06:30] Dahlia
    It's all right.
[06:31] Dahlia
    I appreciate the sentiment.
[06:34] Dahlia
    And I'll sell you the glasses
    at two gold coins a pair,
[06:39] Dahlia
    so I'll take a wine glass as payment.
[06:42] Dahlia
    And since you gave me two,
[06:43] Dahlia
    I'll be sure do my best on
    your next pair of glasses.
[06:49] Wolf
    Thank you.
[06:51] Wolf
    I'm happy to compensate you
    at a fair price for your fine skills.
[06:55] Dahlia
    Very well, then.
[06:59] Dahlia
    I'm surprised you can cook.
[07:02] Wolf
    Dressing meat and grilling it is all I can do.
[07:05] Wolf
    We eat animals and monsters while
    on campaigns, so I know the basics.
[07:11] Wolf
    What's that?
[07:12] Dahlia
    A foam pump bottle with soap in it.
[07:15] Dahlia
    It's another prototype of mine.
    I have some friends testing it for me.
[07:19] Wolf
    Oh, so this is a magic device, too?
[07:22] Dahlia
    Actually, it's...
[07:24] Dahlia
    I'll be working on creating a magic sword
     this afternoon, so I'll abstain from wine.
[07:29] Wolf
    That makes sense.
[07:30] Wolf
    I've been looking forward to this meal,
    but I've been looking forward to that, too!
[07:39] Dahlia
    Could it be that you brought
    really good quality meat today?
[07:43] Wolf
    But it's the precise heat control of this
    burner that's made the most of it!
[07:48] Wolf
    Dahlia, your small magic hob is criminal.
[07:52] Dahlia
    Huh?
[07:53] Wolf
    If had this while on campaigns, I think many
    of my comrades would still be with me.
[07:58] Dahlia
    Did something bad happen?
[08:00] Wolf
    No, nothing like that.
[08:02] Wolf
    There are guys who left the force
    because the food didn't agree with them.
[08:06] Wolf
    When I thought that this might have
     kept them around, it just slipped out.
[08:12] Dahlia
    So, um... Shall we fry up the kraken?
[08:15] Wolf
    Oh... Yeah.
[08:26] Wolf
    I didn't think they'd shrink by half.
    How unbearably sad.
[08:32] Dahlia
    That look in your eyes...
[08:34] Dahlia
    I don't think it's the kind you
    direct at slices of kraken, Wolf.
[08:40] Wolf
    This seems like it'd be good
    with azuma liquor.
[08:42] Wolf
    It makes me want the proper glasses for that.
[08:45] Dahlia
    Then shall we go and shop for some together?
[08:47] Dahlia
    That way, we'll be able to
    get each other's opinions.
[08:50] Dahlia
    Oh? Wolf, you haven't eaten
    a single green pepper.
[08:55] Wolf
    The thing is... green peppers hate me.
[09:01] Dahlia
    If you don't eat them,
    you won't grow big and strong.
[09:04] Dahlia
    At least, that's what I'd like to say.
[09:06] Dahlia
    But it'd be a problem if you
    got any taller, wouldn't it?
[09:09] Wolf
    I have an acquaintance who's taller than me,
[09:11] Wolf
    and he says it's rough because
    he hits his head on door frames.
[09:15] Wolf
    Which is why I'd rather
    not grow any taller myself.
[09:18] Wolf
    So I avoid peppers.
[09:19] Dahlia
    Yes, that makes sense.
[09:21] Dahlia
    Plenty of children dislike
    green peppers, don't they?
[09:32] Dahlia
    Listen, Wolf, I know it sounds silly to say
    this now, but everyone's tastes are different.
[09:38] Dahlia
    Don't force yourself to—
[09:39] Wolf
    No! I must overcome this!
[09:42] Wolf
    It's a wall blocking my path!
[09:52] Wolf
    Huh? I can eat it.
[09:53] Dahlia
    People's tastes change,
[09:55] Dahlia
    so even if you didn't like something before,
    you might find it delicious now.
[09:59] Wolf
    It is delicious. Maybe I've been
     missing out all this time!
[10:10] Wolf
    I'd like to take one of these
    hobs with me on campaigns,
[10:13] Wolf
    but if I ate like this on my own,
    the other troops would annihilate me.
[10:16] Dahlia
    The smell of cooking meat
     does tend to attract people.
[10:21] Dahlia
    Well, I'd say it's time to
    clean up and get to business.
[10:25] Wolf
    You mean...
[10:26] Dahlia
    Yes. Let's start crafting a magic sword.
[10:31] Dahlia
    Now, let us begin.
[10:33] Wolf
    I've been waiting for this moment!
[10:37] Dahlia
    That sounds like something you'd say
    upon encountering some grand destiny.
[10:41] Dahlia
    Wolf, for starters, could you take
     the sword apart for me, please?
[10:44] Wolf
    All right.
[10:46] Dahlia
    Which would be better on the blade,
    hardening or ever-sharp?
[10:50] Wolf
    A short sword like this has a fairly thick blade,
    so I think ever-sharp might be best.
[10:54] Dahlia
    All right.
[11:06] Dahlia
    Next, a water magic stone
    on the guard for cleansing,
[11:09] Dahlia
    a wind magic stone on the hilt for swiftness,
    and weight reduction on the scabbard.
[11:13] Dahlia
    Is that right?
[11:15] Wolf
    Yes, if you would.
[11:42] Dahlia
    This is rather tricky.
[11:44] Wolf
    The scabbard might be just fine as it is.
[11:47] Wolf
    After all, you imbued everything else.
[11:50] Dahlia
    I'll keep at it just a little longer.
[11:54] Wolf
    Dahlia, it looks to me like the scabbard
    is taking a lot more magic than the rest.
[11:59] Dahlia
    Putting a magic stone on the scabbard
    would make it too unwieldy.
[12:02] Dahlia
    I'm extracting magic from stones and
    imbuing it with that, so it'll take a while.
[12:08] Dahlia
    Also, I'm bad at weight reduction.
[12:12] Dahlia
    My father was good at it, though...
[12:15] Dahlia; internal
    I think he used go like this...
[12:27] Dahlia
    It seems I needed to wrap it in magic
    instead of pouring magic into it!
[12:31] Wolf
    I'm glad it worked.
[12:32] Wolf
    This was really interesting to watch,
     but aren't you tired?
[12:36] Dahlia
    I'm fine.
[12:38] Dahlia
    But putting it back together takes
    physical strength, so would you mind?
[12:41] Wolf
    No problem.
[12:42] Dahlia
    It will be heavier because of the magic stones.
[12:46] Wolf
    It's perfect like this.
[12:47] Wolf
    If this is the finished weight,
    it could even be a little heavier.
[12:51] Wolf
    Huh? Imbuing magic wouldn't
    change the size of a piece, would it?
[12:56] Dahlia
    No.
[12:57] Wolf
    Then I just need to put a
    little more strength into it...
[13:04] Dahlia
    Are you all right?
[13:06] Wolf
    I'm fine.
[13:07] Wolf
    I never imagined it
    wouldn't fit back together.
[13:10] Dahlia
    There must be a reason no one
    has done this before now.
[13:14] Dahlia
    It could be an issue with magical affinity,
    or that magic changes the materials somehow.
[13:19] Dahlia
    We'll just have to try different methods.
[13:22] Wolf
    Creating something is a difficult task, isn't it?
[13:25] Wolf
    I suppose our journey to make
     a magic sword has only just begun.
[13:30] Wolf
    If it's a matter of magical affinity,
[13:32] Wolf
    does that mean the castings
     were interfering with each other?
[13:35] Dahlia
    Magical interference caused them to repel.
[13:38] Dahlia
    In that case...
[13:39] Dahlia
    maybe we just need to wedge a material
     that'll cut the magic between them.
[13:42] Wolf
    Cut the magic?
[13:47] Dahlia
    You once told me about a material that's
    resistant to fire, water, and wind
[13:51] Dahlia
    that's also hard to remove, didn't you?
[13:54] Wolf
    I do recall mentioning something...
[13:55] Dahlia
    That might be the solution to this!
[13:59] Dahlia
    If we use black slime powder—
[13:59] Wolf
    Let's not do that.
    We should prioritize safety first.
[14:04] Dahlia
    These gloves can withstand acids.
    And you're here, Wolf, so I'm not worried.
[14:09] Wolf
    All right.
[14:11] Wolf
    If anything happens, I'll use all my
    strength to get you to the church.
[14:22] Dahlia
    The powder has adhered. Can I ask you
    to try putting the sword together again?
[14:27] Wolf
    I have a feeling it'll work this time.
[14:31] Dahlia
    It's starting to look less
     "magical" and more "demonic."
[14:34] Wolf
    But this is cool in its own way, isn't it?
[14:37] Wolf
    Like something a demon king's
    subordinate might carry!
[14:40] Dahlia
    Should a knight be so happy about that?
[14:43] Wolf
    It's done.
[14:46] Wolf
    Yes, it's far easier to use now!
    Each of the magic castings is working!
[14:51] Dahlia
    I'm glad.
[14:55] Dahlia
    It's eaten away at your gloves.
[14:59] Dahlia
    One wrong step and it could melt your hands.
[15:14] Dahlia
    Right! On to the next one!
[15:16] Wolf
    No, wait! If I used durable gloves, then—
[15:19] Dahlia
    Absolutely not. We'll put it in a magic sealing
     box and have a specialist dispose of it.
[15:24] Wolf
    Couldn't I test it on just one monster?
[15:26] Dahlia
    For the first time ever,
    I feel sympathy for the monsters.
[15:31] Wolf
    Dahlia!
[15:32] Wolf
    Listen, I understand that it's dangerous,
[15:35] Wolf
    but can't we put it in the magic sealing
    box and just keep it for a while?
[15:40] Dahlia
    Keep it?
[15:41] Wolf
    Yeah. It's our first magic sword. I want to
    hold on to it for a bit to remember this.
[15:48] Dahlia
    All right.
[15:49] Dahlia
    This is magic sword version 1.
[15:52] Wolf
    We'll call it the Short Sword
    of a Demon King's Subordinate!
[15:56] Wolf
    Good work today.
[15:57] Dahlia
    Thank you for your help.
[16:02] Wolf
    Next time won't be until after my campaign.
[16:04] Wolf
    In two days, we start hunting big frogs
    as we always do at this time of year.
[16:08] Dahlia
    Big frogs? I've heard that they
    spawn in very large numbers,
[16:14] Dahlia
    but how many are we talking?
[16:15] Wolf
    Last year, there were about five hundred.
[16:18] Dahlia
    What? Thank you for your service.
[16:20] Wolf
    What's even worse than that is the heat.
[16:24] Dahlia
    Even though summer's just begun?
[16:25] Wolf
    There's no wind in the marshland, and we
    use fire magic, so it gets unbelievably hot.
[16:30] Wolf
    Not to mention how swampy our shoes get.
[16:32] Wolf
    A lot of soldiers end up
    with fungal infections.
[16:35] Dahlia
    You don't cast drying magic on your shoes?
[16:39] Wolf
    We only have strengthening cast on them.
[16:41] Wolf
    We never know what we'll be stepping on.
[16:43] Dahlia
    That's true.
[16:47] Dahlia
    Wait right there!
[16:48] Wolf
    Sure.
[16:52] Wolf
    This is...
[16:53] Wolf
    How much are they? I want to repay
    you properly next time I come.
[16:56] Dahlia
    Um, instead of payment, could I ask you
    for a report on the prototype's performances?
[17:02] Wolf
    A report?
[17:03] Dahlia
    Yes.
[17:03] Wolf
    All right. I'll write one up in detail.
[17:07] Wolf
    You can count on me!
SIGN    It's been three weeks, hasn't it, Wolfred?  Has anything fun happened?
[17:17] Wolf
    I used a wyvern to take a vacation.
SIGN    That does sound thrilling and quite fun,  but do be careful.
[17:25] Wolf
    How have you been, Lady Althea?
SIGN    I may be asking you to see me  to a soiree quite soon.
[17:33] Wolf
    The little birds are flocking again, are they?
SIGN    Something like that. And what about you?
[17:39] Wolf
    A lot has happened, but now I can
     walk around town on my own.
SIGN    My. Well, I won't ask you how you managed  that, but I'm very happy to hear it.
[17:50] Wolf
    Returning home from my vacation,
    I met a wonderfully delightful woman.
SIGN    It's rare to hear you say such things.
SIGN    Have you already spent the night together?
[18:00] Wolf
    We stayed up until dawn
     just having fun talking.
SIGN    How lovely.
SIGN    Then you've found yourself a lovely friend.
[18:08] Wolf
    Yes, I'm very lucky to have met her.
[18:11] Wolf
    I'm deploying on a campaign tomorrow.
SIGN    Be careful on your way, Wolfred.
[18:16] Wolf
    I will, thank you.
SIGN    I wonder when he'll realize that he's on  the verge of catching a deathly fever.
SIGN    Will it cool quickly? Will it break him?
SIGN    Or will it be something he takes to his grave?
SIGN    I look forward to seeing, don't you, Vee?
[18:40] (Flashback) Dahlia
    These are five-toed socks.
[18:44] (Flashback) Dahlia
    They wick away sweat from your feet,
    so I thought they might make things better.
[18:48] (Flashback) Dahlia
    I've imbued them with drying magic.
[18:50] (Flashback) Wolf
    They're a very peculiar shape.
    I've never seen anything like it.
[18:54] (Flashback) Dahlia
    These insoles have wind magic imbued in them.
[18:58] (Flashback) Dahlia
    They're green because
    of the green slime powder.
[19:01] (Flashback) Wolf
    I see. Are you planning
     to sell them somewhere?
[19:05] (Flashback) Dahlia
    No. My father often grumbled, "It's so hot
    in summer, I don't want to wear socks!"
[19:11] (Flashback) Dahlia
    So I came up with these
    prototypes to try to help.
[19:14] (Flashback) Wolf
    Your father must have been very happy.
[19:17] (Flashback) Dahlia
    I didn't finish them until after he'd passed,
    so I never got to show him.
[19:21] (Flashback) Dahlia
    But since I made them,
    I'd be happy if you could use them.
[19:25] (Flashback) Dahlia
    They may even help prevent foot fungus.
[19:29] Drino
    Wolf, what are those bizarre things?
[19:33] Wolf
    These? They're five-toed socks.
[19:35] Drino
    Five... what?
[19:37] Wolf
    See? Each toe is separate.
[19:41] Wolf
    And these are drying insoles.
[19:43] Wolf
    A friend gave them to me when I
    mentioned how humid the marshland is.
[19:47] Wolf
    I'm testing them out.
[19:49] Drino
    The insoles are one thing,
    but those socks are really creepy.
[19:53] Drino
    They look hard to put on.
[19:54] Wolf
    They do take time to put on.
[19:57] Wolf
    But even after walking all this way,
    my socks and feet are dry.
[20:01] Drino
    No way! Mine are already drenched in sweat!
[20:06] Wolf
    Want to try them, Drino?
[20:10] Drino
    They look like a monster's shed skin, but it's
    so much cooler without my toes stuck together!
[20:14] Drino
    I can't even tell I'm sweating!
[20:16] Wolf
    I'm glad we're the same size.
    Let me know what you think of them later.
[20:20] Drino
    You got it!
[20:20] Wolf
    Also, there's a chance this combination
    may prevent foot fungus.
[20:25] Alfio
    Wolf! What did you just say
    about preventing foot fungus?
[20:28] Wolf
    U-Um, that this combination of socks
    and insoles might serve as a preventative.
[20:35] Alfio
    I see. And where are they sold?
[20:38] Wolf
    Oh, these are prototypes.
[20:41] Alfio
    So they can't be purchased?
[20:42] Wolf
    I have extras if you'd like to try them.
[20:45] Alfio
    I would!
[20:47] Wolf
    Please let me know what you think later.
[20:49] Alfio
    Thanks. I'll give you my impression
    in as much detail as I can muster.
[20:53] Grat
    If they work against foot fungus,
    I'd like to try them, as well.

    So would I. I'm willing to pay
    the cost of the finished product.
[21:01] Wolf
    I was told that they're still prototypes,
[21:03] Wolf
    and we don't yet know
    if they'll prevent fungus.
[21:06] Wolf
    Is foot fungus really
     so terrible to deal with?
[21:10] Dino
    When sweat gets into it, it gets even
    itchier and robs you of your focus!
[21:14] Dino
    At its worst, every step is uncomfortable!
[21:20] Wolf
    That sounds just like heat rash.
    I didn't realize it was that bad.
[21:24] Grat
    You can only say that
    because you're young, Wolfred!
[21:29] Grat
    Once you're over 35,
     it'll hit you all at once!
[21:31] Dino
    What are you talking about, Captain?!
[21:34] Dino
    It's even worse when you're young
    because you sweat more!
[21:38] Grat
    When you get older,
    you heal slower, which makes it worse!
[21:41] Grat
    My feet are itching even as we speak!
[21:43] Dino
    That may be true, but—
[21:46] Randolph
    Wolf, may I have a moment?
[21:47] Wolf
    Randolph.
[21:49] Randolph
    If possible, I'd like a pair, too.
[21:52] Wolf
    Randolph...
[21:53] soldier A
    Wolf!
[21:54] soldier B
    Wolf! Over here, too!
[21:55] soldiers
    We want some, too!
[21:56] soldiers
    We heard everything!
[21:57] soldiers
    Please give us some!
[21:58] soldiers
    I'm begging you!
[22:00] Wolf; internal
    Dahlia, it looks like this is going
    to turn into something huge...
