[00:01] Narrator (Roxanne?)
    This is the story of a possible future.
[00:11] Michio
    It's been ten years, huh?
[00:14] Roxanne
    Master?
[00:16] Michio
    What is it, Roxanne?
[00:19] Roxanne
    What are we doing here?
[00:22] Rutina
    This place seems perfectly ordinary.
[00:25] Sherry
    The kind of rural farming
    village you'd find anywhere.
[00:29] Vesta
    Is it perhaps a health resort?
[00:32] Miria
    Are we here on vacation?
[00:35] Michio
    No, this place is an
    ordinary village. I just...
[00:40] Michio
    I came here once, a long time ago.
[00:43] Roxanne
    What? Here?
[00:45] Michio
    Yeah.
[00:47] Michio
    Back before I met you, Roxanne.
[00:54] Miria
    It's a stable.
[00:55] Sherry
    Is there something special about this place?
[00:58] Michio
    Yeah.
[01:00] Michio
    Just remembering what it was like.
[01:04] Michio
    I do feel nostalgic for this place,
    but I don't remember it very well anymore.

[01:11] Michio
    Hey. Do you remember me?
[01:15] Michio
    Or are you a different horse?
[01:17] Michio
    If so, the thief who stole those
    sandals has nothing to worry about.
[01:31] Roxanne
    Is something the matter?
[01:32] Michio
    I was just thinking his
    hair is an unusual color.
[01:35] Rutina
    You mean his black hair?
[01:38] Vesta
    You don't often see that around here.
[01:43] Miria
    It's like yours.
[01:45] Michio
    Yeah, you're right.

    He's exactly the right age, too.
[01:57] Michio
    Well...
[01:59] Michio
    That must be what happened.
[02:05] Michio
    What are you planting?
[02:08] Mio
    Kyupiko.
[02:10] Michio
    Kyupiko, huh?
[02:12] Michio
    That's this village's specialty, isn't it?
[02:15] Michio
    Are your parents doing well?
[02:18] Mio
    My mom is.
[02:20] Mio
    But my dad died before I was born.
[02:24] Michio
    I see. Do you listen to your mom?
[02:31] Mio
    Yeah.
[02:33] Michio
    Good.

    If she allows it, then it's yours.
[02:49] Mio
    What?
[02:50] Michio
    Use this sword to protect your mother.
[02:53] Mio
    But...
[02:55] Michio
    Don't be shy.
[03:11] Michio
    Now, listen here.
[03:12] Michio
    Picking up that sword
    doesn't make you stronger.
[03:17] Michio
    It's the sword that's strong.
[03:19] Michio
    Don't forget that.
[03:22] Mio
    Okay.
[03:26] Mio
    Thanks, mister.
[03:30] Michio
    Mister, huh?
[03:33] Michio
    Sorry, Roxanne. I let someone else have
    the sword I originally gave to you.
[03:38] Roxanne
    I don't mind.
[03:40] Roxanne
    Who was that boy?
[03:42] Michio
    I've never met him before.
[03:45] Michio
    But I probably know that child's father.
[03:50] Michio
    Let's go.
SIGN    in the Labyrinth of Another World
SIGN    Harem
SIGN    Vale
    Vale Restaurant
[05:39] Michio
    Thirty-three gold coins
    are worth 330,000 nars.
[05:43] Michio
    I'll use my silver coins to
    pay the leftover amount,
[05:47] Michio
    which means I need 70,000 more.
[05:52] Michio
    If that slave trader is to be believed,
[05:54] Michio
    there are two ways for
    me to quickly make money.
[05:59] (Flashback) Michio
    A labyrinth?
[06:01] (Flashback) Alan
    Yes. It was discovered in the
    woods to the west the other day.
[06:05] (Flashback) Alan
    Is that not why you came to this town?
[06:10] Michio
    I didn't come here on purpose.
[06:13] (Flashback) Michio
    Is exploring labyrinths
    something adventurers do?
[06:17] (Flashback) Alan
    Yes. After all, they can sell the items
    they acquire by defeating demons.
[06:21] (Flashback) Alan
    For those confident in their abilities,
    labyrinths are a guaranteed income source.
[06:27] (Flashback) Alan
    However, it's difficult to make a large
    amount of money over a short period of time.
[06:32] (Flashback) Michio
    So collecting bounties would be quicker.
[06:35] (Flashback) Alan
    It certainly is good money,
    but I wouldn't recommend it.
[06:40] (Flashback) Michio
    Why not?
[06:41] (Flashback) Alan
    Because bandits would rather
    get rid of bounty hunters.
[06:45] (Flashback) Alan
    If you attract too much attention...
[06:47] (Flashback) Michio
    You'll find yourself the target instead.
[06:50] (Flashback) Alan
    Indeed.
[06:51] (Flashback) Alan
    Furthermore, while it's more efficient
    than exploring labyrinths,
[06:55] (Flashback) Alan
    not many bounties are worth the risk.
[07:02] (Flashback) Michio
    I see.
[07:05] Michio
    I still have five more days to buy Roxanne.
[07:09] Michio
    I'll try the reliable method first.
[07:13] Michio
    I'll head to the labyrinth.
[07:16] Michio
    But first, I've gotta deal with this.
[07:20] Michio
    Fighting those bandits made one thing clear.
[07:23] Michio
    This weapon is amazing,
    to an excessive degree.
[07:27] Michio
    People are likely to come after me for it,
SIGN    Sandals
[07:31] Michio
    like how I stole those sandals.
[07:33] Michio
    If this gets stolen, I'm screwed.
[07:36] Michio
    After all, I put 63 bonus
    points into this thing.

[10:56] Michio
    I'll head back outside next.
[10:59] Michio
    It's not called Dungeon Walk for nothing.
[11:01] Michio
    I can only choose destinations
    inside labyrinths.

[11:39] Michio
    One hit, huh?
[11:42] Michio
    This must be because of Durandal.

[11:48] Michio
    The needle wood dropped an item, huh?
[11:51] Michio
    I'm not sure what it is, but I'll take it.

[11:56] Michio
    Hey, there's another one.
[11:59] Michio
    Come to think of it, the

[12:02] Michio
    I think it was...
[12:04] Michio
    Overwhelming.
[12:10] Michio
    The needle wood's movements slowed down?
[12:13] Michio
    No, am I moving faster?
[12:16] Michio
    Not that it matters either way.
[12:19] Michio
    Once I swing my sword up
    through it, it'll be over.
[12:23] Michio
    But what good would that do?
[12:27] Michio
    Why am I even doing this?
[12:33] Michio
    I'd rather wrap myself up in a futon and...
SIGN    Dazed
[12:42] Michio
    What was that?
[12:45] Michio
    I suddenly lost the will to do anything.
[12:50] Michio
    Wait a minute. I felt the same thing
    after I used Dungeon Walk earlier.
[12:57] Michio
    This sucks.
[12:58] Michio
    I know! It's my MP!
[13:01] Michio
    Expending MP by casting spells dampens
    my mood and makes me pessimistic.
[13:06] Michio
    I returned to normal immediately afterwards
    because of Durandal's MP Absorption.
[13:13] Michio
    I may be able to recover my MP,
[13:15] Michio
    but repeatedly falling into a
    depression isn't a fun time.
[13:22] Michio
    I shouldn't use too many
    spells until I have more MP.
[13:34] Michio
    Is this where I sell items?

    Yes.

    Your total is 273 nars.

    I see.

[13:57] Michio
    Two hundred seventy-three nars

[14:01] Michio
    Without the 30% increase,
    that would've been ten nars per branch.
[14:07] Michio
    Supposing I kill ten in
    an hour, that's 100 nars.
[14:10] Michio
    In ten hours, I'd earn 1,000 nars.
[14:12] Michio
    That's nowhere near close
    enough to buy Roxanne.
[14:20] Michio

[17:15] Michio
    I had a feeling it wouldn't

[17:22] Michio

    Crap, I'm low on MP.
[17:55] Michio
    I can't let them get behind me.
[17:58] Michio
    Overwhelming presumably consumes
    a large amount of MP.
[18:01] Michio
    It'll take more than a couple
    of monsters to recover it.
[18:04] Michio
    That said, if I'm too stingy with
    my MP, then I'll slowly bleed out.
[18:09] Michio
    Overwhelming.
[18:19] Michio
    All right. I'm in the corner.
[18:21] Michio
    I can't get attacked from behind here.
[18:25] Michio
    This may be another world,
    but it's still my reality.
[18:29] Michio
    Being defeated here would
    certainly mean my death.
[18:38] Michio
    But I'll fight, even if it could kill me.
[19:15] Michio
    I thought I was gonna die.
[19:17] Michio
    No,
[19:19] Michio
    without Durandal's HP Absorption,
    I definitely would've bit it.
[19:31] Michio
    That's enough for today.

[19:50] Michio

[19:55] Townsfolk B
    Probably one of the bandits who
    used to hang out in this town.
[20:01] Michio
    Used to?
[20:02] Townsfolk A
    You mean you don't know?
[20:04] Townsfolk A
    Recently a group of bandits left this town.
[20:08] Townsfolk B
    Nobody knows if they
    moved their headquarters
[20:11] Townsfolk B
    because the knights started
    cracking down on them
[20:16] Townsfolk B
    or they lost a dispute
    with a rival organization.
[20:19] Townsfolk A
    The bandits who left were robbing
    travelers and attacking nearby villages.
[20:26] Michio
    Oh, I know all about that.
[20:29] Townsfolk A
    Looks like they're back for revenge.
[20:34] Michio
    Revenge?
[20:35] Michio
    Hey, wait.
[20:37] Michio
    If they're the survivors of the bandit
    gang that attacked that village,
[20:41] Michio
    then shouldn't they be getting revenge on me?
[20:46] Michio
    No, it's hard to imagine that's the case.
[20:51] Michio
    They'd be seeking revenge on whoever
    made them leave town in the first place.
[20:56] Michio
    In other words, the knights
    or their rival organization.
[20:59] Townsfolk B
    Either way, he's one unlucky bastard.
[21:02] Townsfolk A
    No doubt.
[21:05] Michio
    How do you know that's a dead bandit?
[21:08] Townsfolk A
    Take a look.
[21:11] Townsfolk A
    His left hand's been cut off.
[21:13] Townsfolk B
    His Intelligence Card didn't
    appear right away when he died,
[21:16] Townsfolk B
    so they took his whole hand instead.
[21:19] Michio
    Ugh. Who's so desperate for a bounty
    that they'd chop off a corpse's arm?
[21:27] Michio
    The bounty...
[21:30] Michio
    Bounties, huh?
[21:32] Townsfolk A
    Something the matter?
[21:33] Michio
    Nothing.
[21:39] Michio
    That's right.
[21:40] Michio
    Even if I keep going back into that labyrinth,
    it's unlikely I'll make much money.
[21:45] Michio
    If I'm going to risk my life,
[21:48] Michio
    I should choose whatever method
    gets me closer to Roxanne.
[21:55] Michio
    Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
[22:02] Michio
    I have no other options.
[22:04] Michio
    I'll have to hunt bandits.
