**[00:05] Wizard Boy**
Seriously... Why do I have to be here?
**[00:12] Priestess**
Er... All right, then.
**[00:13] Priestess**
Shall we get going, Goblin Slayer?
**[00:16] Goblin Slayer**
Yeah.
**[00:17] Wizard Boy**
Aha, so we're heading right
into murdering those goblins.
**[00:21] Priestess**
No, not exactly.
**[00:24] Goblin Slayer**
We're gathering information.
**[00:26] Goblin Slayer**
We're going to see the client.
**[00:28] Wizard Boy**
Huh?
***SIGN*** The Red-Haired Wizard Boy
**[02:02] Dwarf Shaman**
What? All you've got is wine?
**[02:04] Dwarf Shaman**
Don't you have any of
the hard stuff, brother?
**[02:07] Foreman**
Only us dwarves can function after
drinking this early in the day.
**[02:11] Foreman**
We've got humans here, brother.
**[02:14] Foreman**
Anyway...
**[02:16] Foreman**
A few days ago, this somewhat reputable
party accepted our quest...
**[02:22] Goblin Slayer**
But they didn't come back.
**[02:23] Foreman**
Correct.
**[02:26] Foreman**
Are you the one they call Beard-cutter?
**[02:29] Goblin Slayer**
Yeah. Some call me that.
**[02:31] Foreman**
Goblin Slayer, eh?
**[02:35] Foreman**
So what did you wanna ask about?
**[02:37] Goblin Slayer**
Goblins.
**[02:39] Foreman**
Well, it's not *just* goblins,
but there are quite a few of them.
**[02:44] Foreman**
I wouldn't say they're just
stealing our tools lately,
**[02:47] Foreman**
but I can't have them harming
my workers in the future, either.
**[02:50] Goblin Slayer**
So, goblins.
**[02:51] Foreman**
Laborers are one thing, but prostitutes
and peddlers are a whole different matter.
**[02:57] Foreman**
I can't pay much for
exterminating goblins, either.
**[03:00] Goblin Slayer**
That's how slaying goblins goes.
**[03:02] High Elf Archer**
Hey, Orcbolg. You haven't forgotten that
we're letting her give orders, have you?
**[03:07] Goblin Slayer**
No.
**[03:08] High Elf Archer**
Really?
**[03:09] Goblin Slayer**
But emergencies are different.
**[03:12] Priestess**
Right. I'll be counting on
you when we're in trouble.
**[03:15] Priestess**
So, um...
**[03:17] Priestess**
We have a few questions for you.
**[03:19] Priestess**
So, these goblins...
**[03:20] Priestess**
Er, these monsters. Do you know where
the ruins in which they're appearing are?
**[03:25] Foreman**
Yeah. The fool that got his tools
stolen chased down the goblin.
**[03:32] Foreman**
We can't just stand by when
some fool mishandles our tools!
**[03:37] Priestess**
In that case, we'll have to get
those tools back if we find them.
**[03:41] Foreman**
Yeah, thanks.
**[03:43] Foreman**
Lessee. It's a bit north from
here. I'll get you a map.
**[03:49] Foreman**
I think it was...
**[03:51] Goblin Slayer**
A mausoleum.
**[03:53] Goblin Slayer**
A place comprised of burial
chambers and hallways.
**[03:56] Goblin Slayer**
I heard it was a common design for graves.
**[03:58] Foreman**
Ah, so you've heard of it.
**[04:00] Goblin Slayer**
A long time ago.
I was told never to go near it.
**[04:04] Priestess**
Um...
**[04:06] Priestess**
Was there anything unusual about
the entrance to that grave?
**[04:10] Priestess**
Perhaps some bones or a drawing?
**[04:11] Foreman**
No one's mentioned anything.
**[04:13] Priestess**
So no totems...
**[04:15] Priestess**
Also, do you know the ranks and makeup
of the party that previously went?
**[04:19] Foreman**
I'm pretty sure they were
porcelain and obsidian.
**[04:23] Foreman**
They had a lizardman warrior
and a priest warrior.
**[04:26] Foreman**
They also had a wizard and a priest.
**[04:29] Foreman**
Also a scout or something...
**[04:32] Priestess**
Were there any women in their party?
**[04:33] Foreman**
Two. The priest warrior and the priest...
No, maybe she was an acolyte?
**[04:41] Goblin Slayer**
Well?
**[04:42] Lizardman Priest**
If they're lucky, two, but most
likely, they were all killed.
**[04:47] Lizardman Priest**
We can probably assume there was
something else other than the goblins.
**[04:51] Goblin Slayer**
If there weren't any totems,
there shouldn't be any shamans.
**[04:53] Goblin Slayer**
Hobgoblins will be easy,
but we need to watch out for traps.
**[04:56] Goblin Slayer**
I'd guess there are about
thirty or so of them.
**[04:59] Lizardman Priest**
But I'm sure their numbers
must have gone down a little.
**[05:02] Lizardman Priest**
I highly doubt the party of
five couldn't kill even one.
**[05:06] Wizard Boy**
You're not gonna do anything?
**[05:08] High Elf Archer**
You gotta have the right
people in the right places.
**[05:10] High Elf Archer**
My job is to be a ranger and scout.
**[05:13] High Elf Archer**
They can do the rest.
**[05:15] Dwarf Shaman**
That's right, lad.
**[05:16] Dwarf Shaman**
I guess even long-ears can say something
sensible every once in a while.
**[05:20] Dwarf Shaman**
Pacing is important for spell casters.
**[05:23] High Elf Archer**
I always only say sensible things.
**[05:26] Dwarf Shaman**
Is that so?
**[05:27] High Elf Archer**
It sure is!
**[05:29] Dwarf Shaman**
Anyway, the point is,
everyone has a job to do.
**[05:33] Wizard Boy**
Job? You mean other than being,
like, a warrior or wizard?
**[05:36] Priestess**
Um, could you all gather around?
**[05:39] High Elf Archer**
What is it?
**[05:42] Wizard Boy**
All we have to do is kill some
goblins. What else matters?
**[05:50] High Elf Archer**
I see.
**[05:51] High Elf Archer**
Yeah, I can definitely imagine
kids wanting to play in there.
**[05:54] Goblin Slayer**
That's why I was told to stay away.
**[05:57] Dwarf Shaman**
So, did you ever go near one?
**[05:59] Goblin Slayer**
No. But I heard they consist
of burial chambers and hallways.
**[06:05] Goblin Slayer**
That's what my older sister told me.
**[06:08] Goblin Slayer**
Regardless, that's in the past.
**[06:11] Wizard Boy**
Let's hurry up and go in already.
**[06:13] Wizard Boy**
There are other adventurers
captured in there, right?
**[06:18] (Flashback) Warrior**
We need to hurry up and save them.
**[06:24] Lizardman Priest**
"Haste makes waste." This saying
has been around for centuries.
**[06:29] Priestess**
Right.
**[06:32] Priestess**
Everyone.
**[06:33] Priestess**
Are you ready?
**[06:36] Lizardman Priest**
What shall our formation be, lady leader?
**[06:40] Priestess**
Oh, stop that. You're really
enjoying this, aren't you?
**[06:46] Priestess**
As for our formation...
**[06:47] Priestess**
We have a party of six this time,
so let's have three rows of two.
**[06:50] Priestess**
That'll make it easier to
switch rows if we need to.
**[06:54] High Elf Archer**
Got it. I guess we'll have to
do that if our leader says so.
**[06:57] Priestess**
Please, stop already.
**[06:59] Priestess**
Oh, and...
**[07:01] Wizard Boy**
Wh-What?
**[07:04] Priestess**
We need to get rid of our scent.
**[07:08] Wizard Boy**
Huh?
**[07:20] Goblin Slayer**
Goblins. Five of them.
**[07:29] Goblin Slayer**
That's one.
**[07:32] High Elf Archer**
That's two!
**[07:38] Wizard Boy**
Damn it!
**[07:40] Wizard Boy**
Carbunculus... Crescunt...
**[07:42] Priestess**
Don't use your spells yet!
**[07:44] Priestess**
The door!
**[07:45] High Elf Archer**
Got it!
**[07:50] Dwarf Shaman**
Looks like we're all right for now.
**[07:53] Lizardman Priest**
Well, I do hope I get to do something.
**[07:58] Goblin Slayer**
Still too many enemies.
**[07:59] Lizardman Priest**
Well, then... I guess it
wouldn't do to hesitate.
**[08:10] Wizard Boy**
Should we really be moving this slowly?
**[08:13] Priestess**
It's very dangerous, so we have
to take it one room at a time.
**[08:16] Wizard Boy**
Yeah, but...
**[08:17] Wizard Boy**
The captives are in danger.
**[08:23] Priestess**
How are the other rooms?
**[08:24] High Elf Archer**
They're unlocked, and no enemies around.
**[08:27] High Elf Archer**
But look over there.
**[08:33] Goblin Slayer**
A trap?
**[08:34] High Elf Archer**
Probably.
**[08:35] Goblin Slayer**
That's a pain.
**[08:36] Priestess**
Come to think of it, he said that
the goblins stole their tools.
**[08:43] Dwarf Shaman**
Well, I don't even want to
think about what those goblins
**[08:46] Dwarf Shaman**
plan to do with those carpentry tools.
**[08:49] Dwarf Shaman**
There's not much of a load on it, so I
can't imagine it's a complicated trap.
**[08:54] Lizardman Priest**
We do also have the option
of going down another path.
**[08:57] Lizardman Priest**
It appears that the other goblins
haven't noticed we're here.
**[09:06] Wizard Boy**
Damn it! This is taking forever!
**[09:08] Wizard Boy**
The goblins live here, don't they?!
**[09:11] Wizard Boy**
Then they wouldn't have any traps here!
**[09:13] Wizard Boy**
Move!
**[09:13] High Elf Archer**
Hey, wait a minute!
**[09:14] High Elf Archer**
What do you think you're—
**[09:15] Wizard Boy**
I'm opening this.
**[09:17] Priestess**
Huh? W-Wai—
**[09:19] Priestess**
* I have to stop him! What do I say?*
* How do I convince him?*
**[09:23] Priestess**
*Goblin Slayer!*
**[09:25] Priestess**
* What should I do? What should I do?*
* What should I do? What should I do?*
**[09:34] Wizard Boy**
Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-What the...
**[09:39] Goblin Slayer**
The goblins are messing around.
**[09:41] High Elf Archer**
This is bad.
**[09:43] High Elf Archer**
His scream definitely acted as an alarm.
**[09:45] Goblin Slayer**
That's how it's set up.
**[09:47] Goblin Slayer**
They'll be here any minute.
**[09:51] Priestess**
A scream?
**[09:53] Wizard Boy**
This way!
**[09:55] Priestess**
Don't take off on your own!
**[10:02] Wizard Boy**
Is this it?
**[10:06] Wizard Boy**
Are you here?! I'm here to save—
**[10:20] Wizard Boy**
C-Carbunculus... C-Crescunt... Iacta!
**[10:33] Wizard Boy**
Hey, are you okay?!
**[10:36] Wizard Boy**
I'll get you out of here right away!
**[11:33] Wizard Boy**
Stay back! It's a trap!
**[11:42] Goblin Slayer**
Count, twenty.
**[11:51] Goblin Slayer**
Sixteen left. Are you alive?
**[11:54] Wizard Boy**
Y-Yeah.
**[11:55] Goblin Slayer**
Not you.
**[11:56] Lizardman Priest**
He is referring to the girl over there.
**[11:59] Wizard Boy**
She is!
**[12:02] Wizard Boy**
She's still alive! Of course she is!
**[12:04] Goblin Slayer**
I see.
**[12:05] Wizard Boy**
I wanted to save her as quickly as I could...
**[12:08] Goblin Slayer**
We also have women on our team.
**[12:11] Goblin Slayer**
Two of them.
**[12:12] High Elf Archer**
For crying out loud...
**[12:13] High Elf Archer**
This is why I hate goblins.
**[12:20] Wizard Boy**
B-But...
**[12:21] Dwarf Shaman**
No time for yappin'!
Just take the whole chair with us!
**[12:36] Dwarf Shaman**
Hold that side!
**[12:37] Wizard Boy**
Okay.
**[12:38] High Elf Archer**
Still more coming from the back.
What do you want to do?
**[12:42] Priestess**
U-Um... Uh...
**[12:44] Lizardman Priest**
Sir Goblin Slayer.
**[12:46] Goblin Slayer**
Yeah. You ready?
**[12:52] Goblin Slayer**
Holy Light.
**[12:53] Priestess**
Right!
**[12:54] Goblin Slayer**
We'll cut straight through.
I'll leave the vanguard to you.
**[12:56] Lizardman Priest**
Understood!
**[12:57] Goblin Slayer**
I'll take care of that screaming giant.
**[13:00] Wizard Boy**
By yourself?! That's impossible!
You're dealing with a troll!
**[13:04] High Elf Archer**
You dumb boy.
**[13:05] High Elf Archer**
This is exactly the kind of
moment when Orcbolg shines!
**[13:09] Priestess**
O merciful Earth Mother, please bless us,
**[13:11] Priestess**
the wanderers in the
darkness, with holy light!
**[13:16] Priestess**
Holy Light!
**[13:23] Priestess**
Let's go!
**[13:33] Goblin Slayer**
A troll?
**[13:35] Goblin Slayer**
You're not a goblin.
**[13:48] Goblin Slayer**
Bye.
**[13:58] Goblin Slayer**
That should've taken care of half of them.
**[14:00] Goblin Slayer**
In which case...
**[14:04] Goblin Slayer**
That's fifteen.
**[14:07] High Elf Archer**
Hey, Orcbolg!
**[14:09] High Elf Archer**
I heard some kind of booming
noise from behind us.
**[14:12] Goblin Slayer**
It was an emergency.
How's it looking in front?
**[14:15] High Elf Archer**
Same as always!
**[14:17] High Elf Archer**
Hi-yah! Let's go all out!
**[14:20] High Elf Archer**
So, do you have a plan?
**[14:21] Goblin Slayer**
I do. I always do.
**[14:29] Wizard Boy**
We're trapped, damn it!
**[14:33] Lizardman Priest**
Now, now, we don't know that for sure.
**[14:37] Priestess**
U-Um... Where are Goblin
Slayer and High Elf Archer?
**[14:41] Dwarf Shaman**
They'll catch up soon enough.
**[14:44] Dwarf Shaman**
Here.
**[14:47] Priestess**
Thank you.
**[14:53] Priestess**
We need to treat her wounds at once.
**[14:55] Dwarf Shaman**
Nah, you take a breather.
**[14:58] Dwarf Shaman**
She's not so injured that
she could die at any moment.
**[15:01] Dwarf Shaman**
You good, lad?
**[15:03] Wizard Boy**
I'm fine.
**[15:04] Dwarf Shaman**
I see.
**[15:11] (Flashback) Wizard Boy**
I bet when you're in trouble, you're shaking
in your boots and just calling for God.
**[15:17] Wizard Boy**
S-So, hey... I'm s—
**[15:19] Lizardman Priest**
They're here!
**[15:21] High Elf Archer**
Damn it, Orcbolg! That thing's still alive!
**[15:24] Goblin Slayer**
I guess it's tougher than I thought.
**[15:31] High Elf Archer**
I'm so done with this!
What the heck is that thing?!
**[15:33] High Elf Archer**
I wanted to fight something
that looks cooler!
**[15:36] Dwarf Shaman**
What're we gonna do, Beard-cutter?
**[15:38] Goblin Slayer**
I need water.
**[15:39] Goblin Slayer**
Can you make some with a spell?
**[15:40] Wizard Boy**
There's no point in memorizing
spells like that.
**[15:42] Dwarf Shaman**
I've got some rain!
**[15:43] Dwarf Shaman**
Though it'll be a bit
weak since we're inside.
**[15:46] Goblin Slayer**
That's fine.
**[15:47] Goblin Slayer**
Also, we need Holy Light one more time.
**[15:50] Goblin Slayer**
Can you do it?
**[15:53] Priestess**
I-I can!
**[15:55] Goblin Slayer**
Good.
**[15:59] Priestess**
O merciful Earth Mother, please bless us,
**[16:01] Priestess**
the wanderers in the
darkness, with holy light!
**[16:06] Priestess**
Holy Light!
**[16:10] Goblin Slayer**
I need that water.
**[16:11] Dwarf Shaman**
You got it!
**[16:12] Dwarf Shaman**
Go forth, Kelpie. Go boldly!
**[16:14] Dwarf Shaman**
From earth to river and sea to sky!
**[16:17] Dwarf Shaman**
Call Rain!
**[16:29] Goblin Slayer**
Next... is this.
**[16:39] Wizard Boy**
Wh-What the? The troll's body is...
**[16:48] Goblin Slayer**
It's simple, but not bad.
**[16:51] High Elf Archer**
What just happened?
**[16:52] Goblin Slayer**
If you quickly cool down
heated stone, it can break.
**[16:56] Goblin Slayer**
That secret formula is sucking up
the water and that thing's heat,
**[16:58] Goblin Slayer**
and freezing it instantly.
**[17:00] Goblin Slayer**
Apparently that's how it works.
**[17:03] High Elf Archer**
Where the heck did you learn that?
**[17:05] Goblin Slayer**
Water Town.
**[17:07] Priestess**
Oh! The ice treats?
**[17:10] Lizardman Priest**
It seems to be suffering
from wounds that won't heal.
**[17:13] Lizardman Priest**
How unfortunate for it.
**[17:16] Goblin Slayer**
Once we finish off that giant,
inexplicable thing...
**[17:20] Goblin Slayer**
We're going to slay all the goblins.
**[17:49] Wizard Boy**
* I know this happened partially*
* because I was careless.*
**[17:52] Wizard Boy**
* I'm still green,*
* and this is my responsibility.*
**[17:55] Wizard Boy**
*But...*
**[17:57] Wizard Boy**
* This guy who seemed so blasé*
* about fighting the troll,*
**[18:00] Wizard Boy**
*but so delighted about killing the goblins...*
**[18:05] Wizard Boy**
*I...*
**[18:07] Wizard Boy**
*This is the only guy...*
**[18:11] Wizard Boy**
*that I refuse to acknowledge!*
**[18:15] Dwarf Shaman**
Well, all right, then.
**[18:17] Dwarf Shaman**
To the fact that we survived! To that
monster's head! To that acolyte's future!
**[18:22] Dwarf Shaman**
Cheers!
**[18:22] High Elf Archer and Lizardman Priest**
Cheers!
**[18:26] Lizardman Priest**
Oh, pardon me, waitress!
**[18:28] Lizardman Priest**
Could you bring me some cheese-covered
sausages right away?
**[18:32] Waitress**
Sure, you've got it, Mr. Lizardman!
Your usual!
**[18:35] High Elf Archer**
Oh, come on, Orcbolg!
**[18:37] High Elf Archer**
Why do you always go silent
at times like these?
**[18:40] Goblin Slayer**
Do I?
**[18:41] High Elf Archer**
You do.
**[18:42] High Elf Archer**
Go on. You drink, too.
**[18:44] Priestess**
I'm, uh... Today isn't really...
**[18:47] High Elf Archer**
Oh, come on!
**[18:49] High Elf Archer**
You're alive! That's all that matters!
**[18:52] High Elf Archer**
No one's gonna be perfect at
giving orders right off the bat!
**[18:56] High Elf Archer**
Also, what's going on with you over there?
**[19:01] Lizardman Priest**
Now, cheer up.
**[19:04] Lizardman Priest**
You made it back from your first adventure
alive. That is reason to celebrate.
**[19:08] Dwarf Shaman**
That's right, lad!
**[19:10] Dwarf Shaman**
Not many get to face a troll
on their first adventure!
**[19:16] Wizard Boy**
If that troll hadn't shown up...
**[19:18] Wizard Boy**
Even I could've handled those goblins...
**[19:21] Priestess**
I also wish that I had done better...
**[19:25] Lizardman Priest**
Such admirable spirit!
**[19:27] Lizardman Priest**
Nothing can be done until
you put your mind to it!
**[19:29] Lizardman Priest**
They say that progress only
happens one step at a time.
**[19:33] Lizardman Priest**
My ancestor, the fearsome dragon,
**[19:36] Lizardman Priest**
evolved from a four-legged
creature in the swamplands.
**[19:40] Priestess**
Uh-huh...
**[19:42] High Elf Archer**
Hey, by the way...
**[19:44] High Elf Archer**
What happened to that acolyte?
**[19:47] Priestess**
Oh, right. Her wounds
were treated, and she said
**[19:50] Priestess**
she'll think about what to
do next once she recovers.
**[19:53] High Elf Archer**
I see. Well, that's good.
**[19:54] High Elf Archer**
That might be a weird thing to say,
**[19:56] High Elf Archer**
but you can always move on
as long as you're alive.
**[19:59] Wizard Boy**
Being alive isn't going to solve everything.
**[20:02] Wizard Boy**
She lost to goblins. People are
obviously going to mock her.
**[20:06] High Elf Archer**
Wh-What's your problem? That's not—
**[20:10] Wizard Boy**
That's what happened to my older sister!
**[20:13] Wizard Boy**
They kept saying that she lost to goblins!
That she was killed by goblins!
**[20:17] Goblin Slayer**
Older sister? You have an older sister?
**[20:19] Wizard Boy**
Yeah, I did!
**[20:21] Wizard Boy**
If she hadn't been stabbed by
goblins with a poisoned dagger,
**[20:24] Wizard Boy**
she'd still be here right now!
**[20:25] Priestess**
What?
**[20:34] Wizard Boy**
My sister was amazing!
**[20:36] Wizard Boy**
She would've beaten them
if they hadn't used poison!
**[20:41] Wizard Boy**
And yet... All those guys at the academy...
kept running their mouths...
**[20:47] Wizard Boy**
They can...
**[20:48] Wizard Boy**
They can all just die...
**[20:52] Goblin Slayer**
I see.
**[20:56] Goblin Slayer**
I'm heading back.
**[20:58] Goblin Slayer**
Someone get him a room somewhere.
It doesn't matter where.
**[21:03] Dwarf Shaman**
Yup, you got it.
**[21:06] Priestess**
Goblin Slayer.
**[21:09] Goblin Slayer**
Get some rest.
**[21:13] High Elf Archer**
Hey, Orcbolg! What are we doing tomorrow?
**[21:17] Goblin Slayer**

**[21:51] Goblin Slayer**

**[21:55] Goblin Slayer**
