**[00:13] Cain**
Huh?
**[00:15] Cain**
Huh?
**[00:19] Cain**
I beat it?
**[00:20] Cain**
It seems like a tough one.
I wonder what my level is now.
**[00:23] Cain**
Status Open.
***SIGN*** 82,287,920
***SIGN*** Enemy of All Monsters
Dragon Killer
**[00:29] Cain**
Crap! I overdid it!
**[00:31] Cain**
My magic is over 80 million,
and I got the aliases
**[00:33] Cain**
"Enemy of All Monsters" and "Dragon Killer"?!
**[00:39] Cain**
I reincarnated as a noble,
**[00:42] Cain**
but the gods gave me level-10 protections,
so my status is off the charts.
**[00:48] Cain**
But that's a secret to everyone!

**[02:25] Cain**
* Two years later, I headed to the*
* royal capital to make my debut.*
**[02:30] Cain**
* Apparently, it's an event all*
* noble sons must go through.*
**[02:34] Cain**
*I also...*
**[02:36] Cain**
*turned ten years old.*
**[02:38] Reine**
I can't wait to live with you in the capital!
**[02:41] Reine**
You should just take the entry exams
and start attending school.
**[02:45] Garm**
School attendance starts at age twelve,
so he has two more years.
**[02:49] Cain**
Sister Reine, you're looking forward
to starting school, aren't you?
**[02:54] Reine**
I'll get the top score on the school's exam
**[02:57] Reine**
and work hard as your big sister!
**[03:01] Cain**
I'll be rooting for you. Father...
**[03:05] Cain**
How long will it take to get to the capital?
**[03:07] Garm**
Oh, about a week.
**[03:10] Garm**
Assuming no monsters get in the way, that is.
**[03:12] Cain**
I see.
**[03:14] Cain**
* I should be on the alert for any*
* attacks to help out the guards.*
**[03:19] Cain**
*Search!*
**[03:24] Cain**
Father, there's trouble!
Someone's battling three kilometers ahead!
**[03:28] Garm**
What?!
**[03:29] Garm**
You can tell what's happening that far ahead?
**[03:31] Cain**
Yes.
**[03:32] Cain**
A few dozen monsters are
swarming about ten people.
**[03:36] Cain**
We have to hurry!
**[03:38] Garm**
Move faster!
**[03:40] Garm**
Monsters are attacking
three kilometers ahead!
**[03:43] Garm**
You boys go on up there!
**[03:45] KnightA**
R-Right!
**[03:49] Cain**
Father!
**[03:50] Cain**
They won't make it in time! I'll go, too!
**[03:54] Garm**
What are you doing, Cain?! That's dangerous!
**[03:56] Cain**
I'll be fine. You assigned
tutors for me, after all!
**[04:00] Garm**
Cain!

Cain!
**[04:08] KnightA**
What was that?
**[04:09] KnightB**
The wind?
**[04:10] KnightA**
A bird?
**[04:10] Reine**
Cain! Take care, now!
**[04:25] Capital KnightA**
Protect this carriage,
no matter what it takes!
**[04:30] Capital KnightA**
Princess!
**[04:32] Cain**
I'll help you!
**[04:33] Cain**
Air Cutter!
**[04:35] Capital KnightA**
A child shouldn't be out here!
**[04:38] Cain**
Air Bullet!
**[04:41] Cain**
Air Cutter!
**[04:46] Cain**
Wait, I can't. Magic would
hurt the knights, too.
**[04:56] Cain**
And that...
**[04:57] Cain**
just leaves you!
**[05:02] Cain**
Fire Sword!
**[05:13] Cain**
Are you all right?
**[05:14] Capital KnightA**
D-Don't come near this carriage!
Stay right there!
**[05:20] Cain**
I failed to introduce myself.
**[05:22] Cain**
I am the third son of
Margrave Garm von Silford...
**[05:27] Cain**
Cain von Silford.
**[05:29] Capital KnightA**
Th-The margrave's son?
**[05:33] KnightA**
You can rest at ease now!
**[05:35] KnightA**
We are knights of the
Margrave of Gracia—wait...
**[05:38] KnightA**
What is Master Cain doing here?
**[05:40] KnightA**
And... all the monsters are dead?
**[05:43] KnightB**
What a mess...
**[05:46] Cain**
Are you all right?
**[05:47] Capital KnightA**
The princess...
**[05:49] Cain**
Please, don't speak. I can use healing magic.
**[05:52] Cain**
Would you allow me to heal everyone?
**[05:55] Capital KnightA**
Are you...
**[05:56] Cain**
Healing first! Area High Heal!
**[06:05] Capital KnightA**
What is this?!
**[06:11] Cain**
Now, just rest, and try to eat foods
that encourage blood production.
**[06:15] Cain**
I can't replace the blood that you've lost.
**[06:18] Cain**
And... I can't help these people.
**[06:25] Capital KnightA**
J-Just who are—
**[06:28] Garm**
I am Garm von Silford!
**[06:30] Garm**
I've come to assist this carriage!
Is everyone safe?!
**[06:34] Garm**
Wait, Cain?
**[06:35] Garm**
I wondered why you suddenly jumped off.
**[06:38] Garm**
What a terrible scene.
**[06:39] Capital KnightA**
Yes, it is.
**[06:41] Garm**
Fill me in on the situation later.
**[06:45] Garm**
Th-That crest...
**[06:47] Garm**
It appears to be of the house
of Duke Santana! Is he safe?
**[06:56] Garm**
This is...
**[07:01] Garm**
This is, without a doubt,
Princess Telestia and Miss Silk!
**[07:07] Garm**
I am glad to see you're safe.
**[07:09] Cain**
*The princess and the duke's daughter?!*
**[07:11] Telestia**
M-Margrave Silford...
**[07:15] Telestia**
Thank you for coming to save
us when we were in danger.
**[07:19] Telestia**
And, um...
**[07:21] Silk**
Um...
**[07:22] Garm**
Huh? Ah...
**[07:25] Garm**
The one beside me is the
third son of Garm von Silford.
**[07:28] Cain**
I am Cain von Silford.
**[07:31] Cain**
Princess Telestia and Miss Silk,
**[07:35] Cain**
I'm glad you're both safe.
**[07:38] Silk**
Teles!
**[07:40] Cain**
Forgive me for suggesting it with such haste,
**[07:42] Cain**
but would you allow me to use
magic that will calm your mind?
**[07:46] Telestia**
Yes...
**[07:47] Silk**
Please.
**[07:49] Cain**
Relax.
***SIGN*** Relax
**[07:54] Telestia**
What is this?
**[07:56] Silk**
My heart feels lighter... and lighter...
**[08:00] Telestia**
Both the pain and the
exhaustion are disappearing!
**[08:04] Silk**
My heart... My heart...
**[08:08] Silk/Telestia**
...is relaxing!
**[08:13] Silk/Telestia**
Master Cain!
**[08:15] Cain**
I'm here.
**[08:18] Telestia**
Master Cain! I am Telestia Terra Esfort.
**[08:23] Telestia**
Thank you for saving us from danger.
**[08:26] Telestia**
I thought we were done for!
**[08:30] Silk**
I am Silk von Santana.
**[08:33] Silk**
Allow me to thank you, as well.
**[08:36] Silk**
I saw you through the carriage window.
**[08:38] Silk**
You unleashed your magic with
the force of a mighty gale,
**[08:41] Silk**
and your swordsmanship was amazing, too!
**[08:44] Telestia**
His hand is mine!
**[08:45] Silk**
No, mine!
**[08:47] Telestia**
In that case...
**[08:48] Silk**
Well, then...
**[08:48] Telestia**
I'll take...
**[08:50] Silk**
...this one!
**[08:50] Cain**
Please!
**[08:51] Silk**
What brings you all the
way out here, Master Cain?
**[08:53] Cain**
I-I was on my way to the royal capital.
**[08:57] Cain**
I need to be there for my debut.
**[08:59] Telestia**
I see! We were on the way
to our debut, as well.
**[09:04] Telestia**
Please, if you don't mind, travel with us!
**[09:08] Silk**
Yes, let's do that!
**[09:09] Silk/Telestia**
We wouldn't feel safe on our own!
**[09:12] Cain**
Father!
**[09:14] Cain**
Father! Father—
**[09:23] Cain**
*It's so tight... and cramped...*
**[09:25] Cain**
*The carriage is huge...*
**[09:27] Cain**
*So why do we have to sit like this?!*
**[09:30] Cain**
Um, why don't I sit in the front—
**[09:33] Telestia**
You mustn't!
**[09:34] Telestia**
I'm still scared, and I'll feel
better with you beside me.
**[09:38] Silk**
No fair! Me, too!
**[09:39] Telestia**
Master Cain!
**[09:41] Telestia**
Please call me "Teles."
**[09:44] Cain**
I couldn't call the princess that!
**[09:47] Silk**
As for me...
**[09:49] Silk**
You can call me "Silk."
**[09:51] Cain**
I couldn't call the duke's daughter...
**[09:53] Telestia**
Teles.
**[09:54] Silk**
Silk.
**[09:56] Cain**
H-Huh?! But we only just met today...
**[09:59] Telestia**
*Teles*. Understand?
**[10:01] Silk**
*Silk*. Understand?
**[10:05] Cain**
A-All right, Miss Silk and Princess Teles.
**[10:08] Telestia**
No "Princess"!
**[10:09] Cain**
Teles...
**[10:10] Silk**
Oh, same for me.
**[10:12] Cain**
Miss Silk...
**[10:13] Silk**
No "Miss"!
**[10:14] Cain**
Silk!
**[10:16] Silk**
Yes?
**[10:17] Capital KnightA**
Forgive me for interrupting!
**[10:20] Capital KnightA**
We are approaching the town of Renoma.
**[10:23] Capital KnightA**
Please prepare to disembark.
**[10:24] Cain**
D-Did you see all of that?!
**[10:27] Capital KnightA**
Yes.
**[10:28] Cain**
What a disaster.
**[10:30] Telestia**
Let's take some time to rest when we arrive.
**[10:34] Silk**
You'll take a break with us,
won't you, Master Cain?
**[10:47] Cain**
W-Well, I'll see you two
again in the morning...
**[10:50] Telestia**
Why tomorrow? I want to
be together tonight, too.
**[10:54] Telestia**
I'm scared, so I want you
with me the whole time.
**[10:56] Silk**
I want to spend the night
with Master Cain, too!
**[11:00] Cain**
I really don't think that's—
**[11:01] Garm**
True.
**[11:02] Garm**
Even if you're only ten, having girls
and boys share a room is a bit...
**[11:07] Garm**
inappropriate.
**[11:08] Telestia**
But the sight of the horrific things that
happened today won't leave my mind!
**[11:13] Silk**
What would we do if monsters
attacked us during the night?
**[11:17] Cain**
We're inside the town, though—
**[11:19] Silk**
You can't rule out a dragon attack!
**[11:22] Garm**
If that is your concern, a maid can—
**[11:24] Telestia**
I want Master Cain to protect me!
**[11:26] Silk**
That's right! Master Cain
is the strongest one here, isn't he?
**[11:30] Garm**
Huh?
**[11:31] Garm**
Well, yes, that is true, but...
**[11:34] Silk**
So it's settled!
**[11:35] Telestia**
Master Cain, do you not want to?
**[11:37] Silk**
You want to, don't you, Master Cain?
**[11:40] Cain**
A-All right!
**[11:42] Cain**
As long as the room we stay in is very big!
**[11:45] Silk/Telestia**
Yay! We're staying with Master Cain!
**[11:48] Garm**
A-Act with prudence.
**[11:51] Garm**
Remember, you're only ten years old.
**[11:53] Cain**
Right...
**[11:54] Silk/Telestia**
Right!
**[11:57] Silk/Telestia**
Master Cain!
**[12:09] Telestia**
Master Cain, would it be all
right if I slept next to you?
**[12:13] Silk**
I want to sleep beside Master Cain, too!
**[12:16] Telestia**
In that case, Master Cain...
**[12:19] Telestia**
will have to be in the middle.
**[12:21] Silk**
Oh, I know!
**[12:22] Silk**
I'm going to move my bed closer.
**[12:25] Telestia**
No fair!
**[12:26] Telestia**
Maybe I'll move mine closer, too!
**[12:29] Cain**
*We're basically...*
**[12:31] Cain**
* lying side-by-side like*
* we're writing "river" in kanji!*
***SIGN*** River
**[12:35] Telestia**
Master Cain!
**[12:37] Silk**
Master Cain!
**[12:38] Cain**
W-Wait just a moment!
**[12:41] Cain**
Can't we put the beds back where they were?
**[12:44] Telestia**
But the night is scary.
**[12:45] Silk**
When I think of what might
happen if monsters attack...
**[12:48] Cain**
But—
**[12:49] Telestia**
I only wanted to be just
a little bit closer to you.
**[12:54] Silk**
Are you unable to sleep with the
two of us this close to you?
**[12:57] Cain**
N-No, that's not the problem...
**[13:01] Telestia**
Then, let us sleep right up against you.
**[13:04] Silk/Telestia**
Can't you sleep with the two of us here?
**[13:07] Cain**
A-All right! Let's all sleep together!
**[13:11] Silk/Telestia**
Yay!
**[13:12] Cain**
B-But if we're like this...
**[13:14] Cain**
I really will be too anxious to sleep!
**[13:25] Telestia**
Master Cain, did you sleep well?
**[13:27] Silk**
Did you sleep well?
**[13:28] Cain**
* There's no way I could*
* sleep in that situation,*
**[13:32] Cain**
* so I spent the next several*
* nights lying awake.*
**[13:37] Cain**
* But then our group continued*
* moving for a few more days,*
**[13:40] Cain**
* and now, we've finally*
* arrived at the royal capital.*
**[13:45] Cain**
So this is the royal palace!
**[13:50] Telestia**
Thank you.
**[13:51] Daim**
Your Highness, I'm relieved to see you safe.
**[13:55] Daim**
Why are you holding his arm?
**[13:57] Cain**
It's not what it looks like!
They said they were scared, so I...
**[14:01] Telestia**
That's right! Master Cain kept me safe!
**[14:05] Silk**
Master Cain is the strongest there is!
**[14:08] Daim**
I see. So you are Cain, then?
**[14:11] Daim**
I see. So it's you.
**[14:16] Daim**
I am the vice captain of the
Royal Chivalric Order, Daim von Gazard.
**[14:21] Daim**
The knights have already
explained everything to me.
**[14:24] Daim**
I thank you for protecting
Her Highness and Miss Silk.
**[14:28] Daim**
You also brought my fallen comrades home.
**[14:31] Daim**
I thank you on behalf of their families.
**[14:34] Daim**
Thank you. I'll take them from here.
**[14:38] Daim**
Normally, we'd bring home their belongings
**[14:40] Daim**
and either bury or burn their
bodies where they fell.
**[14:44] Daim**
But thanks to you, we can
return them to their families.
**[14:48] Cain**
Sir Daim,
**[14:50] Cain**
these knights fought bravely against
fifty orcs to protect the two young ladies.
**[15:00] Cain**
Please be sure to—
**[15:01] Daim**
I'll tell their fellow knights, as well
as the families who await their return.
**[15:06] Daim**
Our fallen knights' deaths were
not in vain, thanks to you.
**[15:16] Cain**
Well, I should go now...
**[15:20] Daim**
Wait a moment. You will have...
**[15:24] Daim**
an audience with the king.
**[15:26] Cain**
What?! An audience with the king as
soon as I arrive in the capital?!
**[15:30] Cain**
What's this all about?!
**[15:52] King**
Raise your head.
**[15:53] Cain**
Yes, Sire.
**[15:55] Magna**
On their journey here,
Princess Telestia and Miss Silk von Santana
**[16:00] Magna**
were attacked by a band of over fifty orcs.
**[16:04] Magna**
It was an organized orc army, no less,
including the top-ranked orc general.
**[16:09] Crowd**
Truly?
**[16:10] Magna**
Silence!
**[16:12] Magna**
And then this young man, Cain von Silford,
**[16:15] Magna**
eliminated all of the orcs single-handedly.
**[16:18] Magna**
After the battle, he healed our
injured knights with healing magic,
**[16:22] Magna**
and he even brought our proud fallen
knights here to the royal capital.
**[16:27] NobleA**
What? That little boy?
**[16:28] NobleB**
All by himself?
**[16:30] Magna**
We shall therefore reward him. Your Majesty.
**[16:33] King**
You have done outstanding work.
**[16:36] King**
Had you not been there, neither Telestia
nor Miss Silk would have survived.
**[16:42] King**
Therefore...
**[16:43] King**
I hereby proclaim Cain von Silford
**[16:44] King**
a baron!
**[16:46] Cain**
Huh? A baron?
**[16:48] King**
I also grant you ten platinum coins
and a mansion of your own.
**[16:52] NobleC**
Impossible! A ten-year-old
can't be granted a peerage!
**[16:55] NobleD**
And he's even getting a mansion?!
**[16:57] Corgino**
W-Wait just a minute!
**[16:59] Corgino**
Granting a ten-year-old a
peerage is unthinkable!
**[17:02] Corgino**
He's still just a child!
**[17:04] Corgino**
And platinum coins, too?!
**[17:06] Cain**
*They're right! I'm against this, too!*
**[17:08] Cain**
*I can't suddenly be a baron!*
**[17:10] King**
Quiet, Corgino!
**[17:12] King**
Could you have eliminated all those orcs
on your own like Cain did, then?!
**[17:17] Corgino**
Well...
**[17:18] King**
Listen to me, Corgino.
**[17:19] Corgino**
Yes, Sire.
**[17:20] King**
What good would it do to keep such a
talented young man in a powerless position?
**[17:24] King**
My decision will not be changed! Stand down!
**[17:28] Corgino**
Very well.
**[17:30] King**
Cain von Silford.
**[17:33] King**
You will accept, won't you? Well?
**[17:36] Cain**
Yes, Sire.
**[17:37] Cain**
*I don't have a choice at this point, do I?*
**[17:40] Cain**
I accept with gratitude.
**[17:43] King**
Good. Our audience is hereby ended.
**[17:47] King**
But you will not be leaving just yet.
**[17:49] King**
Come to the parlor next.
**[17:52] Garm**
I never expected you to be granted a peerage.
**[17:57] Garm**
I thought you were my third son,
**[17:59] Garm**
but you were the first to be promoted.
**[18:07] Cain**
*This isn't a situation where I can just say,*
**[18:09] Cain**
* "Thanks for being there*
* earlier," and wave back!*
**[18:12] King**
Thank you for waiting.
**[18:13] King**
This is not a formal audience. You may sit.
**[18:18] King**
Cain, I would first like to thank you.
**[18:22] King**
Thank you so much.
**[18:23] Garm/Cain**
Your Majesty?!
**[18:25] King**
Telestia has told me everything.
**[18:28] Eric**
Cain.
**[18:30] Eric**
Allow me to thank you, as well.
**[18:32] Eric**
I am Silk's father,
Eric von Santana Maalbeek.
**[18:36] Eric**
I truly thank you for what you've done.
**[18:39] Cain**
P-Please, raise your heads!
**[18:43] Cain**
I only jumped in to help when
I found people being attacked!
**[18:47] King**
But I do need to express my gratitude
not as a king, but as a father.
**[18:54] King**
Thank you, Cain.
**[18:58] King**
Now, let us talk about your future.
**[19:00] Garm**
I had thought that the only minors
**[19:02] Garm**
who could receive a peerage were
those who had lost their parents.
**[19:07] King**
He excels in both magic and the sword,
**[19:09] King**
and he has the protections of the gods.
**[19:11] King**
This kingdom is not so soft as to leave
such a talented child to his own devices.
**[19:16] King**
That is why I made him a baron.
**[19:18] King**
You will receive pay according
to the official regulations.
**[19:21] King**
Your mansion must be maintained, after all.
**[19:23] King**
If you have any questions
about nobility, ask Garm.
**[19:26] Cain**
Thank you very much.
**[19:27] King**
There is something more
important we must discuss.
**[19:31] King**
Would you take the hand of my Telestia...
**[19:34] Eric**
...and my Silk?
**[19:36] Cain**
What?!
**[19:37] Silk/Telestia**
Oh, my!
**[19:38] King**
Of course, you won't be formally
married until you reach adulthood,
**[19:42] King**
but you can be engaged to them for now.
**[19:45] Cain**
E-Engaged?! But why?!
**[19:48] King**
I'm sure you have some idea why, Cain.
**[19:50] King/Eric**
Don't tell us you don't remember.
**[19:52] King**
After all...
**[19:54] King**
You linked arms with them in the carriage...
**[19:57] King**
and also slept with two unmarried ladies!
**[20:01] King**
And now that that's happened...
**[20:03] Eric**
...no one else will take them as brides.
**[20:04] Cain**
I didn't... do that because I wanted to...
**[20:07] King/Eric**
Are you unsatisfied with my daughter?!
**[20:10] Cain**
Th-That's not what I meant!
***SIGN*** Let's Go Back in Time
**[20:14] (Flashback) King**
Magna, what do you think
I should do about this Cain boy?
**[20:18] (Flashback) Magna**
Well, how about granting him a peerage
and making him stand on his own?
**[20:22] (Flashback) Magna**
Giving him a mansion and having him
live in it will show us who he truly is.
**[20:26] (Flashback) King**
Teles, Miss Silk, I've heard you are both
smitten with this young man who saved you.
**[20:32] (Flashback) Silk/Telestia**
Oh, my!
**[20:33] (Flashback) King**
What if, for example, I said I wanted
one of you to be his fiancée?
**[20:37] (Flashback) Silk/Telestia**
I want to be his fiancée!
**[20:39] (Flashback) Silk/Telestia**
Huh?!
**[20:41] (Flashback) King**
Is this Cain truly that remarkable?
**[20:45] (Flashback) King**
All right, I've decided.
**[20:47] (Flashback) King**
I will keep this Cain boy
here in this kingdom!
***SIGN*** Back to the Present
**[20:52] King**
You will take her, yes?
**[20:53] Eric**
I need you to assume responsibility, Cain.
**[20:56] Cain**
Uh... This is all moving much too quickly!
**[20:59] Cain**
* But this is one of those situations*
* where I can't say no, right?*
**[21:03] Cain**
*What should I do?*
**[21:05] Garm**
Hmph.
**[21:05] Cain**
Huh?!
**[21:06] Silk/Telestia**
Master Cain!
**[21:09] King/Eric**
Cain!
**[21:11] Garm**
Hmph.
**[21:12] Cain**
Very well.
**[21:14] Cain**
I accept the engagement.
**[21:18] King**
We have his word. Is this acceptable?
**[21:21] Silk/Telestia**
Yes!
**[21:22] Silk**
I'll never forget the nights the
three of us slept so close together.
**[21:25] Telestia**
I can't get those nights
out of my mind, either!
**[21:29] Eric**
"Those nights"?!
**[21:30] King**
"The nights the three of us
slept so close together"?!
**[21:33] King/Eric**
Cain!
**[21:34] Cain**
It was just... the positions of the beds!
**[21:37] King/Eric**
The positions of the beds?!
**[21:38] Cain**
I'm gonna get yelled at again!
**[21:41] King/Eric**
Cain! Show some discretion!
**[21:46] Cain**
I'm sorry!
**[23:19] Reine**
What's this about being
engaged to two pretty girls?!
**[23:22] Garm**
The king summoned me after that and
asked, "Is your son a philanderer?"
**[23:26] Reine**
Cain!
**[23:27] Garm**
Cain!
**[23:28] Cain**
I'm sorry! I won't philander again!
