[00:00] Michio
    If I want to acquire a large sum of
    money, I'll have to hunt bandits.
[00:09] Michio
    The question is how I'll do it.
[00:11] Michio
    Depending on the circumstances, I could
    end up facing multiple bandits at once.
[00:17] Michio
    But this time, I won't be
    attacking a distracted opponent.
[00:21] Michio
    Am I strong enough to do it?
[00:24] Michio
    No, I have to.

[02:41] Michio
    I can tell at a glance who's a bandit.
[02:44] Villager A
    The bandits?
[02:45] Villager B
    Yeah. Word is, they're being
    taken out one after another.
[02:48] Villager A
    Maybe they're getting revenge.
[02:51] Villager A
    It's probably those guys who were
    chased out of the slums to the north.
[02:54] Michio
    The slums?
[02:56] (Flashback) Somara
    Mr. Michio, try not to look around too much.
[02:59] (Flashback) Somara
    There are some unsafe areas around here.
[03:03] (Flashback) Somara
    There are brothels, as well,
    but I wouldn't recommend going inside them.
[03:12] Michio
    Teleport.
SIGN    The Slums
[03:18] Michio
    The air here is different.
[03:19] Michio
    It smells like sewage.
[03:22] Michio
    In addition to being the
    endpoint of the sewer,
[03:25] Michio
    it's also where outcasts and wretches end up.

[03:30] Michio

[03:32] Michio
    Are they being cautious?
[03:34] Michio
    I suppose bandits wouldn't boldly
    walk around in broad daylight.
[03:39] Michio
    This stench alone is going to make me sick.
[03:41] Michio
    Teleport.
[03:43] Michio
    I'll check it out again at night.
[03:53] Michio
    I stopped becoming depressed even
    after repeated uses of Teleport.
[03:57] Michio
    Must be because of the levels
    I gained fighting that battle.
[04:01] Michio
    I turned that potential
    disaster into good fortune.
[04:04] Michio
    I should be able to handle some
    bandits even if the worst happens.
[04:08] Michio
    Time to resume exploring.
[04:14] Innkeeper
    Going back into the labyrinth?
[04:15] Michio
    Yeah. Hold onto my key for me.
[04:18] Innkeeper
    Sure thing.
[04:19] Innkeeper
    You're working hard, aren't you?
[04:22] Innkeeper
    You don't need a lantern?
[04:31] Michio
    I'm glad I borrowed this.
[04:33] Michio
    It only illuminates the area right around
    my feet, but it's better than not having it.
[04:38] Michio
    This is my first time out
    on the town at night.

[04:58] Michio
    What is that?
SIGN    Red Light District
[05:05] Michio
    This is totally different from the
    red light district during the day.
[05:10] Michio
    The lights at night make it
    seem so much more dazzling.
[05:19] Michio
    Calm down, calm down.
[05:24] Michio
    Think about it.
[05:26] Michio
    I could get ripped off.
[05:31] Michio
    And I can't imagine there's anyone
    here as beautiful as Roxanne.
[05:37] Michio
    Not entering a shop is the right choice.

    Identify.
SIGN    Bandit
[05:53] Michio
    Found one.
[06:03] Michio
    He's definitely heading towards the slums.

    Teleport.
[06:39] Lv9 Bandit
    Yeah, we've got Hugo to thank for that.
[06:42] Michio
    Did he just say Hugo?
[06:45] Michio
    I think the bandit boss I beheaded
    in the starting town was Hugo.

[06:59] Michio
    I need to do more research.
SIGN    2 Days to
    Purchase Roxanne
[07:04] Michio
    I see. I'm starting to get a sense
    of what this town's like at night.
[07:09] Michio
    Perhaps because people
    typically stay overnight,
[07:11] Michio
    the businesses in the red
    light district close early,
[07:13] Michio
    starting with shops that attract customers.
[07:16] Michio
    Then the bandits come out to play.
[07:19] Michio
    Like guards, they either patrol the town
    and stand at crossroads or carouse at bars.
[07:26] Michio
    Even the bandits must have
    groups and territories.
[07:31] Michio
    And they avoid interacting with
    each other to an unnatural degree.
[07:34] Michio
    That guy who was standing in basically
    the same place yesterday is one of them.
[07:38] Michio
    It's not much, but this area must be his.
[07:43] Michio
    Even if I hunted his group,
[07:46] Michio
    the other groups would see it as someone
    else's problem and wouldn't make a fuss.
[07:53] Michio
    If individual groups avoid interacting
    with each other, then I can make it work.

[08:03] Innkeeper
    Welcome back.
[08:05] Innkeeper
    You were out late in the labyrinth.
[08:07] Innkeeper
    Have something to eat.
    It's on the house.
[08:11] Innkeeper
    The murders?
[08:13] Innkeeper
    Those murders, huh?
[08:15] Innkeeper
    There's a power struggle between the bandits
    who live in the slums of this town.
[08:19] Michio
    I heard it was revenge.
[08:22] Innkeeper
    You know about that?
[08:25] Innkeeper
    Between you and me, that's made up.
[08:28] Michio
    Oh?
[08:29] Innkeeper
    A little while ago, there was a change
    in leadership within a certain group.
[08:32] Innkeeper
    There was a succession dispute and the
    losing faction was run out of town.
[08:37] Michio
    There are bandit factions?
[08:39] Innkeeper
    The men who were killed the other day
[08:41] Innkeeper
    were bandits who won the succession
    dispute and remained in town,
[08:45] Innkeeper
    but they're being targeted
    by other groups, too.
[08:47] Michio
    So they're making it look like
    the work of the banished bandits
[08:50] Michio
    and using this opportunity to take them down?
[08:53] Innkeeper
    Maybe, maybe not.
[08:55] Innkeeper
    There might be some trouble
    over in the slums,
[08:58] Innkeeper
    but this area is safe, under the
    watchful gaze of the knights.
[09:06] Michio
    I avoided entering the bandits' hideout
    without knowing what was going on.
[09:10] Michio
    If I end up talking to the bandits,
    then it'll be easier to work something out.
[09:19] Michio
    Roxanne...
[09:21] Michio
    Her branches so heavy with enormous fruit...
[09:28] Michio
    I'll peel them ever so gently...
[09:32] Michio
    And taste them...
[09:40] Michio
    They're hard?
[09:45] Michio
    Sho harf...
[09:50] Michio
    I was so nervous, I didn't get much sleep.
[09:53] Michio
    But now's a good time.

    I've got my Thief's Bandanna.

[10:20] Michio
    I'm definitely extremely suspicious.
[10:22] Michio
    I want to ask you something.
[10:25] Lv9 Bandit
    That's...
[10:26] Michio
    Give me the information I want,
    and it's yours for one gold coin.
[10:30] Lv9 Bandit
    One, huh?
    What do you want to know about?
[10:33] Michio
    He's interested.
[10:34] Michio
    So it's true that bandits will
    shell out 10 to 20 thousand nars.
[10:39] Michio
    Tell me about Hugo.
[10:42] Lv9 Bandit
    Apparently, our brother Hugo was killed.
[10:46] Michio
    I see. The man's dead, huh?
[10:49] Michio
    Could you tell me more about that?
[10:53] Lv9 Bandit
    Wait here.
[10:55] Michio
    Sure, got it.
[11:03] Michio
    His allies must be in that room.
[11:06] Michio
    I'll remember that.
[11:08] Lv9 Bandit
    Our boss knew Hugo, too.
[11:12] Lv9 Bandit
    He's sleeping right now, but you
    should introduce yourself later.
[11:15] Michio
    Good idea.
[11:17] Lv9 Bandit
    The money's in my room.
[11:18] Lv9 Bandit
    Can we talk in there?
[11:20] Michio
    Sure.
[11:21] Lv9 Bandit
    Come in.
[11:25] Lv9 Bandit
    This is it.
    I'll give you the money here.
[11:34] Lv9 Bandit
    First, could I confirm that's
    really a Thief's Bandanna?
[11:39] Lv9 Bandit
    I didn't get a good look at it earlier.
[11:41] Michio
    Sure.
[11:49] Lv9 Bandit
    There was a succession
    dispute a short while ago.
[11:52] Lv9 Bandit
    He was supposed to take over,
[11:55] Lv9 Bandit
    but some other factions joined
    forces and drove him out of town.
[12:00] Lv9 Bandit
    They say Hugo attacked some
    village after that and failed.
[12:06] Lv9 Bandit
    What an idiot.
[12:08] Lv9 Bandit
    There's no point in trying to run.
[12:11] Lv9 Bandit
    Nobody saw me bring you here.
[12:14] Lv9 Bandit
    I don't know where you got that,
[12:16] Lv9 Bandit
    but with a Thief's Bandanna,
    I could get even more done.
[12:20] Lv9 Bandit
    Hand it over.
[12:21] Michio
    So this was your intention from the start.
[12:24] Michio
    Not that I didn't know.
[12:26] Lv9 Bandit
    Bah!
[12:27] Lv9 Bandit
    You don't have a weapon.
    What do you think you can do?
[12:30] Michio
    Well, I'll give you this bandanna.

[13:31] Michio
    Is his neck around here?
[13:37] Michio
    Judging by all the blood,

[13:42] Michio
    He's a level 38 bandit.
[13:44] Michio
    I'm sure there's a decent bounty on him.

[14:32] Michio
    I need to time my movements with the door's.
[14:35] Michio
    I can't afford to screw this up.
[14:37] Michio
    One, two...
[14:42] Michio
    All right.
[14:48] Michio
    His left hand is the one I'm holding.
[14:56] Michio
    Did the other bandits notice?
[14:58] Michio
    I don't detect any more
    bandits inside the room.
[15:01] Michio
    But it'll be difficult to retrieve
    the female bandit's hand now.
[15:05] Michio
    Three is the most I can handle.
[15:08] Michio
    I can't take on any more risks.
[15:10] Michio
    Teleport. To the labyrinth.
[15:14] Michio
    All right. I did it.
[15:21] Michio
    I finally did the unthinkable.
[15:27] Michio
    No, it's probably because I'm low on
    MP from teleporting a bunch of times.
[15:33] Michio
    If I can just defeat some monsters...
[15:40] Michio
    I should be at max MP by now.
[15:48] Michio
    No.
[15:50] Michio
    In this world, killing bandits
    shouldn't be a big deal.
[15:56] Michio
    This world is different
    from the one I came from.
[15:59] Michio
    There are no police, laws,
    or human rights to protect us.
[16:05] Michio
    This was my only option.
[16:12] Michio
    The bandits won't make a fuss over this.
[16:15] Michio
    If word gets out that their
    leaders were killed,
[16:17] Michio
    the other bandits might come after them next.
[16:21] Michio
    More importantly, how am
    I going to cash these in?
[16:25] Michio
    I just recently claimed a bounty.
[16:27] Michio
    If I bring more of these in back to back,
    I might attract the attention of the knights.
[16:32] Michio
    Should I take their cards to another town?
[16:34] Michio
    No, wait. What if they question me?
[16:38] Michio
    They might ask me about the circumstances
    under which I killed the bandits.
[16:41] Michio
    Wouldn't they find it suspicious that I
    didn't bring them to my own town's knights?
[16:46] Michio
    It's no use.
[16:48] Michio
    My head's all screwed up.
[16:51] Michio
    I don't know what will happen,
    but one thing's for certain.

    are regarded in this world.
[18:27] Male Knight
    I was able to confirm they
    belonged to three bandits.

    What?

    Is she going to spring on me now that

[19:56] Michio
    Or that she didn't want me to buy her?

    I believed you'd come for
    me and waited for you.

    But I doubted you once.
[20:10] Roxanne
    I thought you might not come for me.
