**[00:00] Nar**
Long, long ago, when there were
fewer stars shining in the sky...
**[00:07] Nar**
The gods of light, order, and fate
**[00:11] Nar**
and the gods of darkness,
chaos, and coincidence
**[00:14] Nar**
decided to throw dice in order to
determine which side would rule the world.
**[00:20] Nar**
The gods threw the dice over
and over and over again,
**[00:26] Nar**
until they began to feel faint.
***SIGN*** Unexpected Visitors
**[02:06] greenhorn Warrior**
Hey, look at that hottie over there!
**[02:09] Apprentice Cleric**
Hey.
**[02:10] greenhorn warrior**
Whoops. Sorry.
**[02:12] Light warrior**
She's a high elf. They're blood
descendants of the faeries.
**[02:16] Druid**
She definitely has longer
ears than other elves...
**[02:20] High Elf Archer**
I'm asking about Orcbolg.
**[02:22] Guild girl**
Oak...?
**[02:25] High elf archer**
No. Orc. Orcbolg. I heard that he was here.
**[02:30] Guild girl**
Are you referring to an adventurer?
**[02:33] Dwarf shaman**
You fool.
**[02:34] Dwarf shaman**
We're in the realm of the humans.
**[02:36] Dwarf shaman**
They won't understand your
funny talk, long-ears.
**[02:39] High elf archer**
Then what exactly am I supposed to call him?
**[02:42] Dwarf shaman**
Beard-cutter, of course!
**[02:45] Guild girl**
Um... I'm afraid I've never
heard of them, either...
**[02:47] Dwarf shaman**
You haven't?
**[02:49] High elf archer**
You dwarfs are useless.
You're stubborn and narrow-minded.
**[02:52] High elf archer**
You always think you're
the only ones who are right.
**[02:55] Dwarf shaman**
Look who's talking, elf.
**[02:57] Dwarf shaman**
Your chest is as flat as your heart is small.
**[03:00] High elf archer**
Wha—
**[03:01] High elf archer**
If we're gonna go there,
dwarf women just look like barrels!
**[03:04] Dwarf shaman**
You mean they're voluptuous!
**[03:05] Guild girl**
Um... Uh...
**[03:08] Lizardman priest**
Pardon me, you two,
**[03:09] Lizardman priest**
but if you're going to fight,
could you do so where I can't see you?
**[03:13] Lizardman priest**
I apologize for the ruckus
my companions have caused.
**[03:16] Guild girl**
Oh, it's fine. I'm used to it...
**[03:18] Guild girl**
*But what a strange party.*
**[03:21] Guild girl**
* A high elf traveling with*
* her ancestral foe, a dwarf...*
**[03:24] Guild girl**
*And a lizardman, a race you rarely see.*
**[03:26] Guild girl**
*Not to mention they're all silver-ranked.*
**[03:29] Lizardman priest**
You see, we're looking for a fellow whose
nicknames are "Orcbolg" and "Beard-cutter."
**[03:34] Lizardman priest**
I'm also not well-versed
in the human tongue, but...
**[03:38] Lizardman priest**
They mean "goblin slayer."
**[03:40] Guild girl**
Oh! Goblin...
**[03:51] High elf archer**
Hey, you!
**[03:52] Goblin slayer**
We're done.
**[03:54] Guild girl**
Welcome back, Goblin Slayer!
**[03:57] High elf archer**
Huh?
**[03:58] Priestess**
We've returned.
**[04:00] Guild girl**
I'm glad you're safe.
**[04:02] Priestess**
Yes, somewhat.
**[04:04] Goblin slayer**
You just mentioned goblins. Where are they?
**[04:07] Guild girl**
Well... You should ask them.
**[04:11] Goblin slayer**
Are you goblins?
**[04:12] High elf archer**
Of course not! Are you Orcbolg?
You don't look it.
**[04:17] Goblin slayer**
Why would I? I've never been called that.
**[04:20] Lizardman priest**
There's something we'd like to
discuss with you, Sir Goblin Slayer.
**[04:23] Lizardman priest**
May we have a moment of your time?
**[04:27] Goblin slayer**
Fine.
**[04:28] Guild girl**
If you'd like, there are some
meeting rooms upstairs...
**[04:32] Goblin slayer**
Then let's go.
**[04:35] Priestess**
U-Um, sh-should I...
**[04:41] Goblin Slayer**
You should rest.
**[04:43] High elf archer**
We'll just borrow him for a bit, okay?
**[04:57] Greenhorn warrior**
Hey.
**[04:59] Priestess**
Yes?
**[05:00] Greenhorn warrior**
You're porcelain-ranked, too, right?
Why don't you join us?
**[05:06] Priestess**
No... I appreciate the offer,
but I already have—
**[05:09] Apprentice cleric**
The guy who never takes
off his helmet, right?
**[05:12] Greenhorn warrior**
We know.
**[05:13] Greenhorn warrior**
There's something off about him, though.
**[05:15] Greenhorn warrior**
He's silver-ranked, but all
he ever does is slay goblins.
**[05:18] Greenhorn warrior**
Silvers would usually go
for bigger prey than that.
**[05:21] Apprentice cleric**
I've heard rumors that he's just dragging
newbies around to use them as bait.
**[05:25] Priestess**
That's not—
**[05:27] Witch**
Now, now...
**[05:29] Witch**
You shouldn't... talk nonsense...
**[05:31] Greenhorn warrior**
Nonsense? But we weren't—
**[05:33] Witch**
It's all right...
Leave the rest to me, okay?
**[05:39] Witch**
Well... then...
**[05:41] Witch**
You are... the girl...
traveling with him... right?
**[05:45] Priestess**
Y-Yes, ma'am. He's letting me accompany him.
**[05:49] Priestess**
Accompany... eh?
**[05:53] Witch**
He's...
**[05:55] Witch**
a handful... right?
**[05:57] Witch**
He's quite dense.
**[06:01] Witch**
Right?
**[06:02] Witch**
Inflammarae.
**[06:05] Witch**
A truly powerful word...
and I'm wasting a spell... right?
**[06:13] Witch**
You see...
**[06:15] Witch**
he also asked a strange favor of
me once... that friend of yours.
**[06:20] Priestess**
What?
**[06:22] Witch**
You just imagined something
naughty... didn't you?
**[06:25] Priestess**
N-No...
**[06:27] Witch**
He wanted some help with a scroll.
**[06:30] Witch**
It's difficult... accompanying him... isn't it?
**[06:35] Priestess**
It's taking everything I have
just to keep up with him.
**[06:39] Priestess**
All I do is cause him trouble.
**[06:42] Witch**
No to mention... he's a bit crazy... right?
**[06:52] Witch**
I mean...
**[06:54] Witch**
He might only slay goblins...
**[06:57] Witch**
but he's been doing that for years
with barely any rest... you see?
**[07:01] Witch**
He is definitely helping out in the world...
**[07:06] Witch**
Much more than other unskilled
monster slayers...
**[07:11] Witch**
But that being said,
**[07:13] Witch**
one shouldn't just keep slaying... goblins.
**[07:18] Witch**
There are many demons in the capital,
**[07:21] Witch**
and the world is filled with monsters.
**[07:24] Witch**
If you wanted to help people...
**[07:26] Witch**
you could do so with those two you
were talking to... couldn't you?
**[07:30] Priestess**
Well... Yes, you're right, but...
**[07:39] Witch**
I'm sorry.
**[07:42] Witch**
There are many paths... right?
**[07:44] Witch**
There is no... right answer.
**[07:47] Witch**
It's difficult.
**[07:50] Witch**
If you are going to accompany him,
**[07:53] Witch**
you should really make up your own mind.
**[08:00] Priestess**
Make up my own mind...
**[08:04] High elf archer**
Are you truly a silver rank?
**[08:07] Goblin slayer**
The guild thinks so.
**[08:09] High elf archer**
Unbelievable.
**[08:11] High elf archer**
You look so weak.
**[08:13] Dwarf shaman**
Don't be a fool, long-ears.
**[08:17] Dwarf shaman**
That leather armor is easier to move in,
**[08:20] Dwarf shaman**
and the chain mail would
stop a sudden stabbing.
**[08:23] Dwarf shaman**
That goes for the helmet, too,
**[08:24] Dwarf shaman**
His sword and shield are tiny,
but easier to wave around in tight spaces.
**[08:30] High elf archer**
Shouldn't you at least
keep your equipment clean?
**[08:33] Goblin slayer**
It's a necessary precaution
to cover the metal smell.
**[08:35] Goblin slayer**
Those bastards have keen noses.
**[08:37] Dwarf shaman**
You may be a high elf, but you're
still an inexperienced whelp who
**[08:41] Dwarf shaman**
just left the forest because she was bored.
**[08:42] Dwarf shaman**
You really ought to learn from your elders.
**[08:46] High elf archer**
I'm 2,000 years old.
How old were you again?
**[08:50] Dwarf shaman**
One hundred and seven...
**[08:52] High elf archer**
My, my, you definitely look much older.
**[08:55] High elf archer**
You at least *look* old enough to be wise.
**[08:58] Lizardman priest**
That's enough talk about age.
**[09:00] Lizardman priest**
It shames those of us who
won't live nearly so long.
**[09:03] Goblin slayer**
What's your business with me?
**[09:06] High elf archer**
I'm sure you've heard about the growing
number of demons in the capital...
**[09:10] Goblin slayer**
Nope.
**[09:11] High elf archer**
The reason for it is that the
demon king has been resurrected.
**[09:14] High elf archer**
He's gathering forces so
he can take over the world.
**[09:17] Goblin slayer**
I see.
**[09:18] High elf archer**
And that's why we want your—
**[09:20] Goblin slayer**
Ask someone else. I have no
interest in anything but goblins.
**[09:25] High elf archer**
Don't you understand what I'm saying?!
**[09:27] High elf archer**
Hordes of demons are going to attack!
**[09:30] High elf archer**
Do you realize that the
world is at stake here?!
**[09:32] Goblin slayer**
Yes.
**[09:34] Goblin slayer**
But before the demons destroy the world,
the goblins will destroy the villages.
**[09:38] Goblin slayer**
The world being in danger isn't
an excuse to let the goblins live.
**[09:41] High elf archer**
Listen here—
**[09:42] Dwarf shaman**
Hold it, long-ears!
**[09:44] Dwarf shaman**
We didn't come here to ask him to do
something about the chaos to begin with.
**[09:48] Lizardman priest**
Sir Goblin Slayer, we've come
to ask you to slay some goblins.
**[09:53] Goblin slayer**
I see. In that case, I accept.
**[09:55] Goblin slayer**
Where are they? How many are there?
How big is their nest?
**[09:57] Goblin slayer**
Have you confirmed if they
have a shaman or a hob?
**[10:00] High elf archer**
What's with this guy?
**[10:04] Lizardman priest**
As my companion mentioned...
**[10:07] Lizardman priest**
a horde of demons are
ready to make their move.
**[10:11] Lizardman priest**
So the chieftains of my kind,
the kings of men,
**[10:15] Lizardman priest**
and the elders of the elves and
dwarves are going to hold a meeting.
**[10:20] Dwarf shaman**
We're adventurers who've been
hired as their representatives.
**[10:25] High elf archer**
There's eventually going
to be a great battle...
**[10:27] High elf archer**
Though I'm sure you don't care.
**[10:30] Dwarf shaman**
The problem is, those goblins are currently
becoming more active on elven lands.
**[10:37] Goblin slayer**
Have any champions or lords emerged?
**[10:40] High elf archer**
Champions? Lords?
**[10:42] Goblin slayer**
Goblin heroes or kings.
**[10:44] Goblin slayer**
They're basically equal to
platinum-ranked adventurers.
**[10:47] Lizardman priest**
We have found one giant
nest during our investigations.
**[10:53] Goblin slayer**
The military won't move for goblins, as usual.
**[10:57] High elf archer**
The human kings don't see us as equals.
**[11:00] High elf archer**
If we brought our soldiers into this,
they'd think we were plotting something.
**[11:04] Lizardman priest**
That's why they sent us adventurers,
but we still need a human.
**[11:09] High elf archer**
And that's why, Orcbolg, we've chosen you.
**[11:14] Goblin slayer**
Do you have a map?
**[11:15] Lizardman priest**
Right here.
**[11:19] Goblin slayer**
Ruins?
**[11:20] Lizardman priest**
We believe so.
**[11:21] Goblin slayer**
How many?
**[11:21] Lizard priest**
We only know that there are many.
**[11:23] Goblin slayer**
I'll leave immediately.
**[11:24] High elf archer**
Huh?
**[11:25] Goblin slayer**
You can decide how much you want to pay me.
**[11:31] High elf archer**
Is he planning to go alone?
**[11:39] Spearman**
Miss Receptionist!
**[11:40] Goblin slayer**
Goblins.
**[11:42] Guild girl**
Oh, Goblin Slayer.
**[11:44] Guild girl**
So they did come to offer you a quest.
**[11:47] Goblin slayer**
That lizardman will give you the
details of the quest. I'm heading out.
**[11:51] Goblin slayer**
Give me my pay for that last quest.
**[11:53] Guild girl**
But you haven't made your report yet...
**[11:55] Guild girl**
I'll make an exception for you, though.
**[11:58] Spearman**
Who does he think he is?
**[12:00] Witch**
Come, now... No pouting.
**[12:04] Goblin slayer**
Give the rest to her.
**[12:06] Guild girl**
Oh, are you going alone?
**[12:09] Guild girl**
What about her?
**[12:10] Goblin slayer**
I'm going to let her rest.
**[12:11] Priestess**
Goblin Slayer!
**[12:14] Priestess**
U-Um, you received a quest, right?
**[12:16] Goblin Slayer**
Yes. Slaying goblins.
**[12:18] Priestess**
Then I'll get ready immediately!
**[12:20] Goblin slayer**
No.
**[12:22] Goblin slayer**
I'll go on my own.
**[12:26] Priestess**
That's not fair!
**[12:29] Priestess**
You could've...
**[12:30] Priestess**
discussed it with me, at least...
**[12:37] Goblin slayer**
I am now.
**[12:41] Priestess**
Oh... So this is a discussion?
**[12:45] Goblin slayer**
That was my intention.
**[12:49] Priestess**
Not giving the other person a choice
doesn't really qualify as a discussion.
**[12:54] Goblin slayer**
It doesn't?
**[12:59] Priestess**
I'm going with you.
**[13:00] Priestess**
I can't leave you alone.
**[13:04] Goblin slayer**
Do as you wish.
**[13:06] Priestess**
Indeed, I will.
**[13:10] Dwarf shaman**
Even we're not that hard to read.
**[13:14] Dwarf shaman**
I look forward to seeing what
that young'un does next.
**[13:17] Lizardman priest**
If I were to put in the quest
and not go with him,
**[13:19] Lizardman priest**
I wouldn't be able to face my ancestors.
**[13:23] High elf archer**
A strange and incomprehensible being, huh?
**[13:27] High elf archer**
I left the forest to see something like that.
**[13:29] High elf archer**
Honestly... Don't you think you
ought to respect your elders?
**[13:43] High elf archer**
So why did you all become adventurers?
**[13:47] Dwarf shaman**
Why, to eat all the delicious
foods, of course.
**[13:50] Lizardman priest**
They're ready.
**[13:53] Dwarf shaman**
What about you, long-ears?
**[13:55] High elf archer**
I've always longed for the outside world—
**[13:57] Dwarf shaman**
This is delicious!
**[13:58] High elf archer**
Hey, listen to me!
**[13:59] Lizardman priest**
I'm glad you find it to your liking.
**[14:01] Dwarf shaman**
What kind of meat is this?
**[14:04] Lizardman priest**
That is the meat of a swamp creature.
**[14:06] High elf archer**
Swamp? Really?
**[14:08] Dwarf shaman**
A rabbit like you who only eats vegetables
could never understand this bliss.
**[14:13] Dwarf shaman**
So good!
**[14:14] Priestess**
Would you like some soup?
**[14:16] High elf archer**
I'd love some.
**[14:21] High elf archer**
It has such a gentle taste!
**[14:23] Lizardman priest**
I seek to raise my status by rooting out
heresy so that I may become a dragon.
**[14:29] Lizardman priest**
That's the reason I became an adventurer.
**[14:31] Priestess**
I-I see...
**[14:38] Goblin slayer**
So I could slay...
**[14:40] High elf archer**
Yeah, I think we can figure out your reason.
**[14:44] High elf archer**
I'll have to give you something in return.
**[14:50] High elf archer**
These are elven traveling rations.
**[14:52] High elf archer**
We're not supposed to give them to others,
but this is a special occasion.
**[14:58] Priestess**
It's delicious!
**[14:59] High elf archer**
Really? Glad you like it.
**[15:00] Dwarf shaman**
Now I guess I'll have to offer something, too.
**[15:06] Dwarf shaman**
Our cherished dwarven fire
wine created in our cellars.
**[15:10] High elf archer**
Fire... wine?
**[15:12] Dwarf shaman**
You aren't suggesting you're a
child who's never had wine before,
**[15:15] Dwarf shaman**
are you, long-ears?
**[15:18] High elf archer**
D-Don't mock me! Of course I have.
**[15:25] Priestess**
A-Are you all right?
Would you like some water?
**[15:29] Dwarf shaman**
Go on, Beard-cutter. Have some.
**[15:37] Dwarf shaman**
Not bad, kid.
**[15:44] High elf archer**
Why don't you at least take off
your helmet when you're eating?
**[15:49] Goblin slayer**
So I don't get knocked unconscious
in the event of an ambush.
**[15:53] Dwarf shaman**
Yeah, she's out of it.
**[15:56] High elf archer**
Quit eating and share
something of yours with us!
**[16:03] Priestess**
He's lost in thought.
**[16:05] Dwarf shaman**
You can tell?
**[16:08] Goblin slayer**
Will this do?
**[16:09] Lizardman priest**
What is it?
**[16:11] Goblin slayer**
Cheese.
**[16:12] Goblin slayer**
It's made from fermented cow
or goat's milk, then hardened.
**[16:16] Dwarf shaman**
You've never heard of cheese before, Scaly?
**[16:19] Lizardman priest**
My people hunt beasts.
**[16:22] Lizardman priest**
We do not raise them.
**[16:27] High elf archer**
Gimme! I'll cut it up.
**[16:34] Dwarf shaman**
This is some fine cheese!
**[16:45] Lizardman priest**
Nectar!
**[16:47] Lizardman priest**
This is surely the nectar of the gods!
**[16:50] Dwarf shaman**
Goes great with the wine.
**[16:55] High elf archer**
It's so sweet! It's almost like a banana!
**[16:57] Priestess**
Is this from that farm?
**[17:00] Goblin slayer**
It is.
**[17:01] Priestess**
It's delicious.
**[17:02] Goblin slayer**
Good.
**[17:05] High elf archer**
Sneak...
**[17:06] Goblin slayer**
Don't touch that.
**[17:08] Goblin slayer**
It's dangerous.
**[17:10] High elf archer**
I-I just wanted a peek...
**[17:12] Goblin slayer**
Don't. It's dangerous.
**[17:14] High elf archer**
That's a scroll, right?
**[17:16] High elf archer**
I've never seen one before.
**[17:18] Lizardman priest**
Scrolls contain ancient magic
that is now lost to us.
**[17:23] Lizardman priest**
Once you unroll one, even a child
could use the spell within.
**[17:28] Dwarf shaman**
Indeed.
**[17:29] Dwarf shaman**
But it could be any one of many spells,
and it can be only used once.
**[17:33] Dwarf shaman**
Most people would just
sell them off as antiques
**[17:36] Dwarf shaman**
to a collector or researcher at a high price.
**[17:39] (Flashback) Witch**
He wanted some help with a scroll.
**[17:44] High elf archer**
Then at least tell me what kind
of spell you've got in there.
**[17:47] Goblin slayer**
No.
**[17:48] Goblin slayer**
What if the goblins capture you
and you tell them what's in it?
**[17:52] High elf archer**
You don't like me, do you?
**[17:56] Goblin slayer**
I'm not particular.
**[17:57] Dwarf shaman**
It's no use, long-ears.
**[18:00] Dwarf shaman**
He's far more narrow-minded than any of us.
**[18:03] Dwarf shaman**
He's Beard-cutter, after all.
**[18:04] High elf archer**
He's Orcbolg, after all.
**[18:04] Lizardman priest**
He's Sir Goblin Slayer, after all.
**[18:07] High elf archer**
Oh, jeez...
**[18:08] Goblin slayer**
I'm Goblin Slayer.
**[18:12] High elf archer**
Hey!
**[18:17] Lizardman priest**
There's one thing that's been on my mind...
**[18:19] Lizardman priest**
Where do the goblins come from?
**[18:22] Lizardman priest**
I was taught that they came
from an underground kingdom.
**[18:25] Priestess**
We're taught that when someone makes
a mistake, a goblin is formed.
**[18:31] High elf archer**
What's that supposed to mean?
**[18:32] Priestess**
Folks say it to keep children in line.
**[18:35] Priestess**
Children are told that if they make
a mistake, goblins will come.
**[18:37] Dwarf shaman**
That's awful!
**[18:39] Dwarf shaman**
That means if we'd left long-ears to her own
devices, we'd be neck-deep in them now!
**[18:43] High elf archer**
How rude!
**[18:46] High elf archer**
Tomorrow, I'll show you just
how skilled I am with my bow!
**[18:49] Dwarf shaman**
Ooh, how scary. I'm terrified.
**[18:52] Goblin slayer**
I heard...
**[18:58] Goblin slayer**
I heard they came from the moon.
**[19:00] Lizardman priest**
Moon? You mean the two in the sky?
**[19:04] Goblin slayer**
Yes.
**[19:09] Goblin slayer**
The green one.
**[19:11] Goblin slayer**
The goblins come from that green rock.
**[19:15] High elf archer**
Does that mean shooting stars are goblins?
**[19:18] Goblin slayer**
I'm not sure, but the moon has
no grass, trees, or water.
**[19:23] Goblin slayer**
It's a desolate place with only rocks.
**[19:25] Goblin slayer**
It makes them envious and jealous,
and makes them want what they don't have.
**[19:30] Goblin slayer**
That's why they come here.
**[19:33] Goblin slayer**
Which is why, if you ever feel envious
of someone, you become like a goblin.
**[19:38] Priestess**
Who did you hear that from?
**[19:41] Goblin slayer**
My older sister.
**[19:42] Priestess**
You have an older sister?
**[19:45] Goblin slayer**
Yes... I did.
**[19:48] High elf archer**
So you believe that goblins
come from the moon.
**[19:52] Goblin slayer**
If nothing else...
**[19:55] Goblin slayer**
I know my sister never made mistakes.
**[20:12] High elf archer**
He fell asleep.
**[20:15] Dwarf shaman**
Looks like the fire wine finally kicked in.
**[20:17] Priestess**
Well, he did have plenty of it.
**[20:20] Lizardman priest**
We should also sleep.
**[20:22] Lizardman priest**
If we don't get enough rest,
that could very well lead to mistakes.
**[20:26] Lizardman priest**
The lookout will be who we agreed upon.
**[20:48] Cow girl**
Head on back. Time to go home.
**[21:01] Cow girl**
He didn't come back again today...
**[21:30] Dwarf shaman**
Whatever you do, don't miss.
**[21:33] High elf archer**
Hush.
**[21:38] Dwarf shaman**
Where in the world are you aiming?!
**[21:54] Goblin slayer**
Let's go.
