***SIGN*** A Gathering of Adventurers
**[01:45] Cow girl**
Good morning!
**[01:47] Cg**
Just one sec. Breakfast is almost ready.
**[01:50] Goblin slayer**
Run.
**[01:52] Cg**
Huh?
**[01:53] Cg**
Why?
**[01:55] CG**
What's wrong? Where did that come from?
**[01:58] GS**
There were tracks.
**[02:06] GS**
Goblins.
**[02:08] CG**
But you can defeat them, right?
**[02:12] GS**
I can't.
**[02:16] GS**
Even if there were a hundred of
them inside a cave, I could win.
**[02:22] GS**
No matter what, I'd win.
**[02:26] GS**
But...
**[02:29] Gs**
There were at least ten
sets of scout footprints.
**[02:32] GS**
This horde definitely has a leader.
**[02:38] Gs**
A hob... A shaman...
**[02:41] Gs**
No, judging from their numbers,
**[02:44] Gs**
it must be...
**[02:48] Gs**
The king of goblins,
**[02:52] Gs**
the Goblin Lord.
**[02:56] Gs**
They're going to attack
tonight or tomorrow night.
**[02:59] Gs**
We don't have time to ask any
other countries or lords for help.
**[03:02] GS**
A horde of more than a hundred goblins
will attack this place at once.
**[03:06] CG**
A goblin... horde...
**[03:10] CG**
Why... would they attack here?
**[03:15] GS**
They probably want to make
this place their stronghold
**[03:18] GS**
so that they can attack the town.
**[03:21] GS**
I'm not a platinum-ranked adventurer...
**[03:24] GS**
I'm not a hero...
**[03:27] GS**
We don't have enough people
**[03:29] GS**
to face more than a hundred
monsters in an open field.
**[03:34] GS**
I lack the strength.
**[03:37] Gs**
I can't do it.
**[03:42] CG**
And that's why you're telling me to run?
**[03:44] GS**
Yes.
**[03:45] CG**
And if I go now, there'll be enough time?
**[03:49] GS**
Yes.
**[03:58] CG**
Okay.
**[04:00] GS**
Have you decided?
**[04:01] CG**
Yeah.
**[04:05] CG**
I'm sorry. I'm not going to run.
**[04:09] CG**
Because I know you're going to stay behind.
**[04:14] CG**
See? I knew it. You always go silent
when you don't know what to do.
**[04:17] CG**
You've always been that way.
**[04:25] GS**
They won't just kill you.
**[04:27] CG**
Yeah, I can imagine.
**[04:30] GS**
I was watching...
**[04:32] Cg**
Yes.
**[04:34] GS**
Don't think that you'll survive.
**[04:36] Gs**
You might live,
**[04:38] Gs**
but you'll be dead inside.
**[04:42] Gs**
So you need to run.
**[04:43] Cg**
I told you, I won't!
**[04:47] Cg**
Because...
**[04:50] Cg**
I don't want to go through
that a second time.
**[04:54] Cg**
You'll lose your home again...
**[04:59] Cg**
And... You know...
**[05:02] Cg**
Even if we run, if we lose our cows,
sheep, and other livestock,
**[05:06] Cg**
it'd be...
**[05:08] Cg**
You know... um...
**[05:13] Gs**
I see.
**[05:14] Cg**
Yeah. I'm really sorry.
**[05:18] CG**
I know I'm being selfish here...
**[05:25] GS**
Don't make that face.
**[05:33] GS**
I'll do everything I can.
**[05:36] CG**
Okay.
**[05:45] GS**
"You have to protect girls," huh?
**[05:50] Uncle**
Hey.
**[05:52] Uncle**
At least say goodbye.
**[05:55] GS**
I'm sorry. I...
**[05:57] Uncle**
She's a good girl.
**[06:02] Uncle**
She grew up to be a good girl.
**[06:06] Uncle**
So don't make her cry.
**[06:09] Uncle**
I'll do my best.
**[06:18] Uncle**
That's what I hate about you.
**[06:31] Spearman**
Goblin Slayer.
**[06:34] Spearman**
Wow, you're still alive.
**[06:37] SP**
You need something?
**[06:40] GS**
I apologize, but hear me out.
**[06:43] GS**
I have a request.
**[06:44] Guy**
The Goblin Slayer has a request?
**[06:46] Guy 2**
Wasn't he a solo adventurer?
**[06:48] Guy**
Actually, it seems he's formed
a party with a few people lately.
**[06:52] Guy 2**
Really?
**[06:53] GS**
A horde of goblins is coming
**[06:55] GS**
to a farm on the outskirts of town.
**[06:57] GS**
They'll probably attack tonight.
I don't know how many there are.
**[07:01] Guy 3**
Man, I knew it'd be goblins.
**[07:03] Guy 4**
But goblins being in hordes is normal.
**[07:05] GS**
Judging by the footprints left by
the scouts, they have a Goblin Lord.
**[07:09] GS**
Which means there's at least a hundred.
**[07:12] Guy**
A hundred?!
**[07:13] Guy**
A hundred goblins?!
**[07:15] Guy**
Seriously?
**[07:16] Guy**
No way.
**[07:17] Guy**
What the hell?
**[07:18] Guy**
What's going on?
**[07:21] Greenhorn Warrior**
A lord?
**[07:22] Apprentice cleric**
No idea.
**[07:23] GS**
Lords are a mutated class of goblins
that specialize in leadership.
**[07:26] GS**
They can be considered
the top rank of goblins.
**[07:28] GW**
The top?
**[07:30] GS**
And the horde that it's leading
will be here soon.
**[07:33] GS**
There's no time.
**[07:35] GS**
I could handle them in a cave, but I
can't handle them alone, out in the open.
**[07:42] GS**
I'd like your help. Please.
**[07:49] Guy**
What should we do?
**[07:50] Guy 2**
You're asking me?
**[07:51] Guy 3**
Goblins, huh?
**[07:53] Guy 4**
He should just handle them himself.
**[07:55] Guy 5**
I'm definitely out.
**[07:56] Girl**
Me, too. They're gross.
**[08:01] SP**
Hey.
**[08:04] SP**
I think you've got the
wrong idea about something.
**[08:08] SP**
This is an adventurers' guild,
and we're adventurers.
**[08:13] SP**
We're not obligated to listen to requests.
**[08:15] SP**
You need to put up a quest,
which means a reward.
**[08:18] Sp**
Right?
**[08:20] BG**
Yeah!
**[08:21] ---**
We're adventurers!
**[08:22] ---**
You expect us to put our
lives on the line for free?!
**[08:23] High elf archer**
What the hell?!
**[08:25] Dwarf Shaman**
Long-ears, if you go out right now,
it's just going to complicate things.
**[08:29] Lizardman Priest**
I understand how you feel,
but please wait a moment.
**[08:32] HEA**
Let me go!
**[08:36] GS**
Yes. You're right.
**[08:38] SP**
Okay, then, tell us.
**[08:40] SP**
How much are you going to pay us
for dealing with a hundred goblins?
**[08:44] GS**
Everything.
**[08:45] Sp**
Huh?
**[08:47] GS**
Everything I own is the reward.
**[08:51] SP**
What do you mean by that?
**[08:52] GS**
All of my belongings.
Everything within my discretion.
**[08:56] GS**
My equipment, all of my assets,
knowledge, time, and...
**[09:01] SP**
Your life?
**[09:02] GS**
Yes. My life, as well.
**[09:05] SP**
And what if I tell you to go die?
**[09:08] GS**
I can't do that.
**[09:10] SP**
What?
**[09:11] GS**
There's someone who might cry if I die.
**[09:15] GS**
I was told that I can't make them cry.
**[09:18] GS**
So apparently, my life
isn't within my discretion.
**[09:24] SP**
I seriously have no idea what you're thinking,
**[09:28] SP**
but I can tell you're serious about this.
**[09:31] GS**
Yeah. I'm serious.
**[09:35] SP**
God damn it...
**[09:41] SP**
I don't need your life, you dumbass!
**[09:44] SP**
Just buy me a drink later.
**[09:47] SP**
Come on, that's basically market price.
**[09:50] SP**
A silver-ranked adventurer is saying
that he'll slay some goblins for you.
**[09:54] SP**
Be thankful, client.
**[09:56] GS**
Yes.
**[09:58] GS**
I'm sorry.
**[10:00] GS**
Thank you.
**[10:01] SP**
Hey, cut it out. Thank me after
we're done slaying those things.
**[10:05] HEA**
Me, too!
**[10:07] HEA**
I'm going to slay some goblins, too!
**[10:09] HEA**
But only if you'll come with us again!
**[10:12] HEA**
I'll take you on a real adventure next time!
**[10:17] GS**
Very well.
**[10:18] DS**
You'll need to buy me more
than one drink, Beard-cutter.
**[10:22] DS**
I'm going to need a whole barrel.
**[10:24] GS**
All right. I'll get you one.
**[10:26] DS**
You mind if I tag along on this
adventure of yours, too, long-ears?
**[10:30] HEA**
Of course! We're a party!
**[10:32] LP**
Which would mean that I
must accompany you, as well.
**[10:36] LP**
Very well. This is a request from a friend.
**[10:39] LP**
But if I were to ask for a reward...
**[10:42] GS**
Cheese?
**[10:43] Lp**
Yes, and if possible...
**[10:45] GS**
Ice crème?
**[10:48] Lp**
Yes, they are truly nectars of the gods!
**[10:51] GS**
They don't belong to me,
but they're both made at the farm.
**[10:56] LP**
Then we must punish those foul
creatures that come from below.
**[11:02] SP**
That makes five.
**[11:04] Witch**
No, six...
**[11:08] Witch**
Inflammarae.
**[11:10] Witch**
Though we might actually have seven...
**[11:15] Guild girl**
Everyone!
**[11:16] Guild girl**
The Guild... The Guild is offering a quest, too!
**[11:20] GG**
There is now a reward of one gold
coin for every goblin you slay!
**[11:25] GG**
This is your big chance!
**[11:26] Guy**
Seriously?
**[11:27] Guy 2**
One gold coin for every goblin slain?
**[11:30] Inspector**
You're okay with this, right?
**[11:31] Chief**
It's information from a
silver-ranked adventurer.
**[11:34] Chief**
I'm sure it'll be fine.
**[11:36] Chief**
Not to mention...
**[11:37] Chief**
It's hard to say no when they're
that passionate about it.
**[11:43] Heavy Swordsman**
Guess I don't have a choice.
**[11:44] Female Knight**
You're going?
**[11:45] HS**
I don't care for the Goblin Slayer,
but there's a reward involved.
**[11:50] FK**
Really, can't you be more honest?
**[11:53] FK**
Why don't you just tell him
that this is all because
**[11:56] FK**
he's the one who slew the goblins
that appeared in your hometown?
**[12:00] HS**
Shut up! He doesn't need to know that!
**[12:01] HS**
I just want the gold coins
for slaying those goblins!
**[12:04] FK**
Well, I'm trying to become a Paladin myself.
**[12:07] FK**
If someone needs my help, I can't say no.
**[12:09] Young Scout**
Well, if Bro and Sis are going,
I guess I am, too.
**[12:13] Light Swordsman**
You're right.
**[12:14] Rhea Druid**
Guess we'll have to go.
**[12:16] GW**
Hey.
**[12:17] AC**
What?
**[12:19] GW**
I haven't slain any goblins yet.
**[12:22] AC**
Well, we heard that it was dangerous.
**[12:24] GW**
But I think I should start.
**[12:27] AC**
Yeah... He did help us out, too.
**[12:29] Guy**
I became an adventurer the same day he did,
**[12:33] Guy**
so I guess this is some kind of fate.
**[12:34] Guy 2**
It'd be weird if the guy who only talks
about goblins just disappeared one day.
**[12:38] Guy 3**
Yeah, he's this guild's most popular
product. Everyone talks about him.
**[12:42] Guy 4**
He's annoying when he's here,
but it'd be lonely if he was gone.
**[12:44] Female warrior**
Honestly... I've never heard
of such a strange quest.
**[12:51] Guy 1**
We're not comrades or friends,
but we are adventurers!
**[12:56] All**
Leave it to us adventurers!
**[13:08] Priestess**
This is wonderful.
**[13:10] GS**
Yeah.
**[13:10] P**
Of course, I'll be coming along, too.
**[13:13] GS**
Yeah.
**[14:17] RD**
It'll be all right.
**[14:21] CG**
Thank you.
**[14:24] Guy 1**
Hey!
**[14:37] Guy 2**
Here they come.
**[15:12] DS**
Stupor.
**[15:14] W**
Sleep.
**[15:15] DS**
Sleep, you goblins!
**[15:18] Guy**
Now!
**[15:21] Guy**
Don't worry about the goblins!
**[15:24] Guy**
Secure the shields!
**[15:27] Guy**
Hurry! Fall back! Fall back!
**[15:33] Hea**
Honestly, those are your shields?
**[15:36] HEA**
How low can you get?
**[15:41] Guy**
That's the last of the shields!
**[15:43] HEA**
I've taken care of all the
spellcasters I can see!
**[15:45] Guy**
All right!
**[15:53] SP**
All right, here we go!
**[15:55] SP**
Time to make some gold, boys!
**[15:58] SP**
Get them!
**[16:09] FW**
Woohoo! Look at all this gold
that's runnin' toward me!
**[16:13] SP**
Damn... Hard to believe there are this many.
**[16:19] sP**
What a pain.
**[16:23] LP**
Even Sir Goblin Slayer
didn't know what to do.
**[16:28] LP**
This is to be expected.
**[16:30] SP**
Man, talk about scary.
**[16:42] W**
Not that it... matters too much...
**[16:45] W**
But don't step out of range...
of the Deflect Missiles.
**[16:55] LS**
They're pushing hard.
**[16:57] YS**
I should've gone over there, too.
**[17:00] LS**
Wait, look over there.
**[17:07] YS**
Riders! They actually showed up!
**[17:12] Guy**
Riders! The riders are coming!
**[17:15] Guy 2**
Riders!
**[17:17] HS**
All right! Head for the designated area!
**[17:20] SP**
When you're ready, line up!
**[17:22] SP**
Back line, fill the gaps in the front line,
but stay behind them, weapons drawn!
**[17:25] Sp**
They're smaller and shorter than horses!
**[17:27] SP**
Draw them in as close as you can!
**[17:31] SP**
Not yet!
**[17:33] SP**
Not yet!
**[17:37] SP**
Now! Take aim!
**[17:56] LP**
All troops, charge!
**[18:08] GW**
Whoa...
**[18:12] GW**
I-It's dead...
**[18:21] FW**
Pay attention, newbie!
**[18:23] FW**
Go on! Get in on the action!
**[18:26] AC**
Are you okay?
**[18:27] GW**
Yeah...
**[18:29] GW**
Thank goodness I bought some armor.
**[18:33] HS**
That was some easy money.
**[18:35] FK**
Yeah, but...
**[18:37] FK**
This is all thanks to his strategy.
**[18:42] (Flashback) GS**
Set ambushes.
**[18:44] (Flashback) GS**
They're used to ambushing others,
but not used to being ambushed themselves.
**[18:48] (Flashback) GS**
They'll use meat shields.
**[18:51] (Flashback) GS**
Cast sleep spells, and use that
moment to rescue the hostages.
**[18:55] (Flashback) GS**
Don't bother with the
goblins that are asleep.
**[18:57] (Flashback) GS**
They'll be trouble if they wake up.
**[19:00] (Flashback) GS**
When the hordes get bigger,
they train wolves and ride them.
**[19:04] (Flashback) GS**
There'll probably be
twenty or thirty riders,
**[19:06] (Flashback) Gs**
but we can take care of them
by setting up spear walls.
**[19:09] (Flashback) GS**
And you can kill them with your weapons.
**[19:11] (Flashback) GS**
When weapons aren't enough, use spells.
**[19:14] (Flashback) GS**
Also, take care of all their
capable spellcasters first.
**[19:25] FK**
So despite how he looks,
he really is silver-ranked.
**[19:30] Guy**
Stupid goblins, running this far away.
**[19:36] Guy**
Hey, how's it going over there?
**[19:44] SP**
What the...
**[19:45] DS**
Something's flying over here! Watch out!
**[20:03] Guy**
Now we're dealing with hobs?
**[20:05] HS**
Nope...
**[20:07] HS**
That's a big'un...
**[20:12] HS**
A goblin champion.
**[20:14] SP**
Make that two.
**[20:20] HS**
Good. I was getting bored
with all the small fry.
**[20:24] HS**
These guys are much more fitting for me.
**[20:27] FK**
Jeez. I'm too busy counting all
the goblin heads I lopped off.
**[20:32] HS**
Just shut up and come with me.
**[20:34] SP**
Hey, step back.
**[20:35] W**
Right...
**[20:37] LP**
Then I shall take the heads
right off their shoulders.
**[20:43] SP**
From here on out,
it's a veterans' battlefield!
**[20:45] SP**
Anyone not confident in their
skills better bow out!
**[20:58] Guy**
Not bad...
**[21:00] W**
May I get some... water?
**[21:01] RD**
Oh, of course!
**[21:03] W**
Thank... you.
**[21:05] YS**
Um, are you sure you don't
need to be with them?
**[21:09] W**
Well, yes...
**[21:11] W**
If anything... he's more used
to dealing with these...
**[21:16] W**
than with normal goblins...
**[21:18] GW**
Goblins...
**[21:19] YS**
Come to think of it, where did he go?
**[21:22] W**
Oh?
**[21:23] W**
You know... who he is... right?
**[21:27] HEA**
Yeah.
**[21:29] HEA**
Where do you think he is?
**[21:48] HEA**
He went...
**[21:51] HEA**
to slay some goblins.
