[00:02] Cain
    Huh? Did I oversleep?
[00:04] Sylvia
    Master Cain!
[00:06] Sylvia
    I was late in waking you on the big day
    of your academy entrance exams!
[00:09] Cain
    Yeah, but there's still plenty of time—
[00:12] Sylvia
    Please eat your breakfast right away!
[00:15] Sylvia
    I'm sorry I was so underprepared!
[00:18] Sylvia
    If you end up late because of me,
    I'll regret it forever!
[00:23] Cain
    Seriously, Sylvia, it's fine.
    I won't be late.
[00:25] Cain
    Okay, I'll be going now.
[00:27] Sylvia
    Take care, Master Cain!
[00:29] Sylvia
    Good luck on your exams!
[00:35] Cain
    I knew I'd make it in time.
[00:37] Cain
    I've been reincarnated as noble
    with off-the-charts abilities
[00:40] Cain
    that let me instantly go
    anywhere I've already been.
[00:42] Cain
    But since this is the big day of my entrance
    exams, I ended up using those abilities.
[00:48] Cain
    Of course, this is a secret to everyone!

[02:24] Official
    Your name, please?
[02:26] Cain
    Sure. It's Cain.
[02:28] Official
    All right, your exam number is 285.
[02:32] Official
    Please take seat number 10 in classroom A.
[02:34] Cain
    Thank you.
[02:36] Cain
    Huh... There's no one I know on this list.
[02:39] Cain
    I wonder why. Even the kids I met
    at the debut party aren't here.
[02:47] Cain
    Maybe Teles and Silk are in a different room.
[02:54] Elka
    The entrance exams will now begin.
[02:56] Elka
    Anyone found cheating will be
    immediately ejected from the premises.
[03:01] Elka
    You have two hours. Now...
[03:04] Elka
    Begin!
[03:06] Cain
    Lucky me!
[03:07] Cain
    Reading, writing, and arithmetic
    will be easy with my knowledge
[03:10] Cain
    from my previous life,
[03:11] Cain
    and the history questions are
    all things any noble would know!
[03:21] Elka
    You there. Are you sure
    you can afford to relax?
[03:25] Elka
    It's only been thirty minutes.
[03:28] Cain
    Oh, I'm fine.
[03:30] Cain
    I've already finished the whole thing.
[03:32] Elka
    Already?
[03:36] Elka
    And stop.
[03:39] Elka
    Everyone, pens down. Leave your
    answer sheets where they are.
[03:42] Elka
    This class will now proceed
    to magic ability assessment.
[03:46] Cain
    Ooh! Magic?!
[03:50] Elka
    Now, all of you,
[03:51] Elka
    choose a target and direct
    your strongest spell at it.
[03:56] Cain
    Excuse me. Can we use our full power?
[04:00] Elka
    Yes. There is a defensive barrier
    around this training area,
[04:04] Elka
    so it's safe to any level of magic you can.
[04:08] Elka
    And begin!
[04:09] ExamineeA
    Here I go!
[04:10] ExamineeA
    Appear here now, reveal in
    darkness, amplify the light...
[04:14] ExamineeA
    Fire Ball!
[04:22] Cain
    Oh, yeah. That's about how powerful
    most twelve-year-olds are.
[04:26] Cain
    Since she said we can use full power,
    I thought about using Inferno...
[04:31] Cain
    That'd be dangerous, though.
[04:32] ExamineeA
    Number 285!
[04:34] ExamineeA
    Begin your incantation, please.
[04:36] Cain
    Right.
[04:40] Elka
    What is that?!
[04:43] Elka
    W-Wait!
[04:44] Cain
    Fire Bullet!
[04:57] Cain
    You said it'd be safe to use any
    beginner-level spell at full power
[05:00] Cain
    since there's a barrier...
[05:03] Elka
    What just happened?!
[05:04] Cain
    I-I used Fire Bullet.
[05:07] Elka
    Impossible!
[05:09] Elka
    No beginner-level spell is this powerful!
[05:12] ExaminerB
    We need to make sure there
    was no one beyond that wall!
[05:17] Elka
    This area is no longer usable!
    Proceed to the swordsmanship exam!
[05:23] Cain
    Sorry about that.
[05:27] ExaminerC
    The swordsmanship exam will now begin.
[05:30] ExaminerC
    As special guests today,
    the adventurers' guild has sent
[05:34] ExaminerC
    these A-rank adventurers
    to lend you their support.
[05:38] Cain
    Hey! It's Claude!
[05:39] Claude
    What? Cain, what are you doing here?
[05:43] Cain
    I'm twelve now, so I'm
     taking the entrance exams.
[05:45] Claude
    Ah. I'll be your opponent, then.
[05:48] Cain
    Uh, no, that's quite all right...
[05:50] Claude
    Why not?!
[05:51] ExaminerC
    Are you refusing to be assessed by Claude,
[05:56] ExaminerC
    the highest-ranked examiner here?
[05:58] Cain
    Uh, no, I just...
[05:59] ExaminerC
    Claude has chosen you,
    so he will perform your assessment.
[06:05] Cain
    In that case, Claude, I look
    forward to your assessment.
[06:09] Claude
    Sure, Cain. I'll assess
    what your skill level is,
[06:12] Claude
    so come at me with all you've got!
[06:14] Cain
    Since he's A-rank,
    he's clearly pretty skilled.
[06:17] Cain
    Boost!
[06:20] Claude
    You can even use Boost?
[06:22] Claude
    Looks like I'm gonna get
    to have some real fun here!
[06:26] ExamineeA
    S-So fast...
[06:27] ExamineeB
    I can't even see what's going on!
[06:28] Claude
    Wow, Cain! You're strong!
[06:31] Claude
    Stronger than any of the examiners here!
[06:33] Cain
    Claude, this is an exam!
    Please don't put so much force into it!
[06:38] Claude
    This is starting to get fun!
[06:40] Claude
    I'll also use... Boost!
[06:44] Claude
    This is why I just can't quit battling!
[06:46] Cain
    Not that it's a problem since
    it's me fighting him, but...
[06:49] Cain
    Claude!
[06:51] Cain
    You'd break any of these other
    kids' bones with one hit!
[06:54] ExaminerC
    All right! That is quite enough!
[06:58] ExaminerC
    What do you think you're doing?!
    Having a mock battle of that intensity
[07:01] ExaminerC
    is making our other students
    wither on the spot!
[07:05] Claude
    Oops, did we take it a little too far?
[07:07] Claude
    Oh, well. Cain, that's it for today.
[07:11] Claude
    But let's accept a quest together sometime.
[07:13] Claude
    And then we'll... Okay?
[07:16] Cain
    I'd rather decline, if that's an option...
[07:18] Claude
    Aw, why?
[07:19] ExaminerC
    That's enough!
[07:21] ExaminerC
    I've seen your skill, so this exam is over!
[07:24] Cain
    Huh?!
[07:24] ExaminerC
    You can go home now. Come back on
    the day we announce who passed.
[07:29] Cain
    I'm sorry.
[07:35] Cain
    I'm home.
[07:37] Sylvia
    Welcome home, Master Cain!
    How were the exams?
[07:40] Cain
    No problem. I finished them all just fine.
[07:43] Cain
    I did everything right,
    so I should make it in.
[07:46] Sylvia
    I thought so!
[07:47] Sylvia
    In that case, we'll have a party
    today to celebrate your acceptance!
[07:51] Cain
    It's too soon for that.
[07:53] Sylvia
    Not at all! I want to apologize
    for my failure this morning, too!
[07:56] Cain
    Seriously, it's all right—
SIGN    Gurgle
[08:00] Sylvia
    See? You're a growing
    boy with a big appetite!
[08:03] Sylvia
    I'll cook enough to feed ten tonight!
[08:05] Sylvia
    I'll start preparing right away!
[08:07] Cain
    Sylvia, I can't eat that much!
[08:11] Cain
    Although...
[08:23] King
    What is the meaning of this?
[08:25] Cain
    Well, the examiner told me to
    use my magic at full power.
[08:30] Cain
    She said it would be fine since
    there was a barrier set up...
[08:33] Cain
    I knew I probably shouldn't use
    intermediate or emperor-level magic,
[08:36] Cain
    so I only used beginner-level...
[08:39] Cain
    but I destroyed the barrier
    along with the target.
[08:42] King
    You can use emperor-level magic?
[08:44] Cain
    Yes, but I can't predict what may
    happen to my surroundings if I do.
[08:49] Cain
    Could I try it out somewhere?
[08:50] King/Eric/Magna
    Absolutely not!
[08:52] Cain
    That... wasn't just an act, was it?
[08:54] Eric
    Of course not! You should know
    that's out of the question.
[08:58] Cain
    Pardon me. I'll try to be
    more prudent in the future.
[09:01] King
    Incidentally, Cain...
[09:03] King
    Where did you take these exams?
[09:06] King
    Both Telestia and Silk said they
    didn't see you at the exam site.
[09:10] Cain
    Huh? Well...
[09:12] Cain
    I checked in at the south entrance,
[09:15] Cain
    and I took the exam in the
    room they directed me to.
[09:18] King
    Cain, you do know why the
    academy has a north entrance
[09:21] King
    and a south entrance, don't you?
[09:23] Cain
    Yes. The north entrance leads
    to where the nobles live,
[09:27] Cain
    and the south entrance leads
    to where the commoners live.
[09:30] King
    And which entrance did you use again?
[09:33] Cain
    Of course, the south...
[09:36] King
    Exactly. There was a receptionist
    at the north entrance for nobles.
[09:40] King
    And the exams are conducted
    in completely different areas!
[09:43] Eric
    You took your exams with
    the commoner children.
[09:47] King
    Telestia was furious that
    she didn't get to see you!
[09:50] Eric
    And the headmaster of the
    academy came to talk to me.
SIGN    Let's Go Back in Time
[09:56] (Flashback) Headmaster
    You see, we had a bit of a problem
    with this year's entrance exams.
[10:00] (Flashback) Eric
    What's the problem? Can't you just
    announce the results as usual?
[10:04] (Flashback) Eric
    This happens every year.
[10:06] (Flashback) Headmaster
    The thing is, a commoner child got
    a perfect score on the written exam.
[10:11] (Flashback) Headmaster
    That same child destroyed
    the training area,
[10:14] (Flashback) Headmaster
    and fought on equal footing
    with an A-rank adventurer.
[10:19] (Flashback) Headmaster
    Duke Eric! This is no laughing matter!
[10:24] (Flashback) Eric
    I bet that child's name was Cain, wasn't it?
[10:26] (Flashback) Headmaster
    Yes...
[10:27] (Flashback) Headmaster
    But why do you know that, Duke Eric?
[10:31] (Flashback) Eric
    Oh, my stomach...
[10:33] (Flashback) Eric
    Of course it was Cain.
[10:35] (Flashback) Eric
    Even more reason you should
    just let the results stand.
[10:38] (Flashback) Headmaster
    Huh?
[10:39] (Flashback) Eric
    Sounds like Cain sure put
    on quite a show, though.
[10:42] (Flashback) Eric
    I bet Prime Minister Magna will be shocked
    when he sees the repair bill later.
[10:50] Magna
    And with that said...
[10:52] Magna
    I have the repair bill right here.
[10:55] King
    How many times have I warned
    you not to overdo it?!
[11:00] Cain
    I'm sorry.
[11:02] King
    Well, no matter.
    The results will be announced today.
[11:05] King
    Go and see them for yourself.
[11:08] Cain
    Okay.
[11:11] Cain
    285...
[11:13] Cain
    285...
[11:16] Silk
    Oh, there you are!
[11:18] Silk
    Congratulations, Cain! You're top of the class.
[11:22] Silk
    Teles is second, and I'm third. See?
[11:26] Silk
    Father told me, you know.
[11:28] Silk
    You checked in at the south entrance
    and tested with the commoners, huh?
[11:32] Silk
    And you destroyed the training area!
[11:35] Silk
    That was a big "oops," all right.
[11:38] Silk
    And Teles isn't here today,
[11:40] Silk
    but she was angry because she
    didn't get to see you on exam day.
[11:43] Cain
    Huh?!
[11:45] Cain
    I'm gonna get chewed out again...
[11:47] Silk
    Well, look forward to
    seeing me in my uniform!
[11:51] Silk
    If I don't see you at the entrance ceremony,
    I'll make you sit on your heels!
[11:55] Cain
    Huh?!
[11:59] Reine
    Right this way!
[12:01] Reine
    Everyone who passed,
    check in at reception on this side.
[12:06] Cain
    It's Sister Reine!
[12:07] Cain
    Sister Reine! Long time no see!
[12:10] Reine
    Cain!
[12:11] Reine
    Cain! Cain! Cain!
[12:14] Reine
    It's been so long! You haven't
    been to our mansion in ages!
[12:18] Cain
    Sorry...
[12:19] Reine
    Good for you!
[12:20] Cain
    Huh?
[12:20] Reine
    You passed with flying colors!
    And top of the class, no less!
[12:24] Reine
    That's my Cain!
[12:26] Reine
    Good luck with your speech
    at the entrance ceremony!
[12:28] Cain
    Speech?!
[12:29] Reine
    Yes! Didn't you know?
[12:31] Reine
    Every year, the top-scoring
    student gives a speech.
[12:33] Cain
    What?! Really?!
[12:35] Cain
    I'd rather have Teles do it...
[12:37] Reine
    You can't! It's already been announced!
[12:40] Reine
    Good luck!
[12:42] Sylvia
    Fidget, fidget...
[12:44] Sylvia
    Fidget, fidget...
[12:46] Sylvia
    Fidget, fidget...
[12:48] Cain
    I'm home.
[12:49] Sylvia
    Fidget...
[12:49] Sylvia
    How did it go?!
[12:51] Cain
    I passed at the top of the class.
[12:56] Sylvia
    I'm so glad! I'm so glad! I'm so glad!
[12:59] Colan
    Remarkable, Master Cain.
    How surprising that you scored the highest.
[13:02] Sylvia
    No, I had faith that Master Cain could do it!
[13:05] Cain
    Thanks.
[13:06] Sylvia
    We must celebrate tonight!
[13:08] Sylvia
    I'll cook enough to feed a hundred!
[13:09] Sylvia
    I'll start preparing right away!
[13:11] Sylvia
    Look forward to it!
[13:13] Cain
    If I eat that much,
    it'll be my stomach that fails.
[13:17] Colan
    She's happy, that's all.
[13:18] Cain
    I know. She's just on
    the wrong scale with it.
[13:21] Cain
    But an occasion like this...
[13:23] Cain
    is reason to be happy.
SIGN    And Then
[13:27] Cain
    This is the south entrance,
[13:29] Cain
    and this one's north!
[13:32] Cain
    Father and Mother came to see me!
[13:36] Teles
    Master Cain!
[13:38] Teles
    Good morning, Master Cain.
[13:40] Cain
    Teles, Silk. Good morning.
[13:43] Cain
    I look forward to studying together.
[13:45] Teles
    Yes...
[13:46] Silk
    Cain, that uniform suits you too well.
[13:49] Cain
    You two look great, too.
[13:57] BoyC
    Who the heck is he?
[13:58] BoyA
    Isn't that Princess Telestia?
[14:01] BoyB
    And Duke Santana's daughter, too.
[14:03] BoyABC
    How dare he get friendly with them!
[14:06] GirlAB
    The boy in the middle is so dreamy, though!
[14:11] Headmaster
    We will now commence the
    Royal Academy entrance ceremony.
[14:17] Headmaster
    First, representing the new
    students, Cain von Silford.
[14:22] Cain
    Yes, sir.
[14:28] Cain
    Pleased to meet you all.
    I'm Cain von Silford.
[14:31] Cain
    On the day of the exams, I mixed up
     the north and south entrances,
[14:36] Cain
    and took the exams separately
    from the rest of you.
[14:41] Cain
    But I'm grateful to this very
    generous academy for forgiving me
[14:46] Cain
    and treating me the same
    as the other students.
[14:49] Cain
    Just as the first king said that
[14:51] Cain
    all people of this kingdom share
    an equal right to be educated,
[14:55] Cain
    I plan to make friends at this academy
[14:59] Cain
    without regard for my
    bloodline or anyone else's.
[15:02] Cain
    I'm sure I'll be depending
    on you all for a lot.
[15:05] Cain
    I pray we'll all get along well.
[15:12] Council Prez
    Now, this is very short notice,
[15:14] Council Prez
    but His Majesty the King is present,
[15:16] Council Prez
    so we'd like a few words from him.
[15:18] Cain
    Huh?
[15:19] Telestia
    Father is here?
[15:23] Cain
    Why?!
[15:24] King
    Everyone, congratulations
    on entering the academy.
[15:27] King
    I know there are some new students
    this year who are quite irregular,
[15:30] King
    so I have come to speak in person.
[15:33] King
    I'm sure it will be a
    challenge for you teachers,
[15:36] King
    but I hope you'll all do your best!
[15:38] Cain
    Why do I feel like I'm being warned?!
[15:42] Eric
    "Irregular," he says! I like that!
[15:46] King
    Simple though it may be,
[15:47] King
    it is my sincerest hope that
[15:49] King
    all new students will display
    vast growth and effort here.
[15:52] King
    Thus I welcome and congratulate all of you.
[15:58] King
    Now, the rest is up to you!
[16:03] Silk
    Cain! Cain!
[16:05] Telestia
    You're late!
[16:06] Silk
    Over here!
[16:08] Telestia
    What happened?
[16:09] Cain
    The king kept telling me
    over and over to be careful.
[16:14] Elka
    All right, take your seats.
[16:17] Elka
    Starting today, I'll be
    your homeroom teacher.
[16:20] Elka
    My name is Elka von Portlay.
[16:22] Elka
    Before starting classes, you will all
    need to choose your course of study.
[16:26] Elka
    Please think carefully
    about your future path.
[16:30] Cain
    I gotta go for adventuring!
[16:32] Silk/Telestia
    You can't!
[16:33] Telestia
    You're already a land-owning noble, you know.
[16:37] Telestia
    You'll need to learn all kinds
    of things about nobility.
[16:40] Telestia
    Make sure you choose the nobility course!
[16:44] Silk
    Don't sulk, Cain.
[16:46] Silk
    You can just choose adventuring
    along with nobility.
[16:49] Cain
    Oh, yeah! We're not limited
    to just one, right?
[16:53] Cain
    Okay, I've decided!
[16:54] Cain
    I'll go for nobility, adventuring,
    magic, and magic items!
[16:58] Cain
    What are you two choosing?
[17:01] Telestia
    I think I'll choose nobility
    and internal affairs.
[17:05] Cain
    Why internal affairs?
[17:06] Telestia
    Well, of course...
[17:08] Telestia
    so I can manage your future
    domain, Master Cain...
[17:12] Telestia
    I guess...
[17:13] Silk
    I think I'll choose nobility and commerce.
[17:16] Silk
    I want to study whatever will be
    of help to your future domain!
[17:21] Silk
    Right?
[17:22] Telestia
    Right!
[17:26] Cain
    Thanks, you two.
[17:27] Cain
    I can't say much about managing a domain yet,
[17:30] Cain
    but I'll work hard for both of you.
[17:32] Silk
    Of course! I look forward to it, Cain!
[17:32] Telestia
    Of course! I look forward to it, Master Cain!
[17:38] MinionA
    Well, c'mon!
[17:40] MinionB
    What's the deal?
[17:43] Cain
    Those cat ears...
[17:45] Cain
    Parma!
[17:46] Habit
    What is a beastfolk commoner
    like you doing in Class A?
[17:50] Habit
    A duke's son such as myself is
    a much better fit for Class A!
[17:53] MinionA
    That's right!
[17:54] MinionB
    Go home right now!
[17:56] Habit
    If you hadn't come to this academy,
[17:58] Habit
    I would've been in Class A!
[18:00] Habit
    Drop out of school right now!
[18:02] Parma
    B-But...
[18:04] Cain
    Why are you starting fights
    on our first day of school?
[18:07] Cain
    Nobles and commoners are to be
    treated equally at this school.
[18:11] Habit
    That has nothing to do with a
    noble as highly ranked as me—
[18:15] Habit
    Y-You're...
[18:16] MinionA
    Ba...
[18:16] MinionB
    Ba...
[18:17] MinionAB
    Baron Cain!
[18:19] Cain
    What's going on?
[18:20] Cain
    At this school, not even a high-ranked
    noble has the right to say that.
[18:24] Cain
    Yet you're...
[18:25] Cain
    On top of that, this girl is my friend.
[18:29] Habit/Minions
    Your friend?!
[18:31] Cain
    Yes.
[18:32] MinionB
    B-Baron Cain, you're a noble, too!
[18:35] MinionB
    Why are you siding with a commoner
    and not a fellow noble?!
[18:38] Cain
    Noble or commoner makes no difference to me.
[18:40] Cain
    I side with my friends.
[18:42] Habit
    Hmph! If you're siding with
    a commoner over a duke's son,
[18:45] Habit
    I'll just tell my father and get
    him to ruin her entire family!
[18:48] Cain
    R-Ruin them?!
[18:50] Silk
    What's this? What are you ruining, exactly?
[18:54] Habit/Minions
    M-Miss Silk?!
[18:57] Telestia
    Might I ask what is going on here?
[18:59] Habit/Minions
    P-Princess Telestia?!
[19:04] Telestia
    Nobles cannot exist without commoners,
[19:07] Telestia
    so what you just said is quite problematic.
[19:09] Telestia
    Do I need to report this to my father?
[19:12] Habit
    N-No! What I said a moment ago was wrong!
[19:15] Habit
    I'm very sorry!
[19:16] Telestia
    I'm not the one you should apologize to.
[19:18] Telestia
    Would you not agree that you need to
    apologize to the one you were harassing?
[19:24] Habit
    I... I would like to tell
    you that I'm s-s-s-s...
[19:28] Cain
    S...?
[19:29] Habit
    S-S-Sorry!
[19:35] Cain
    Parma, I'm sorry it took me
    so long to realize it was you.
[19:38] Parma
    Not at all! Thank you so much!
[19:41] Parma
    I'm so glad I'm attending
    the same school as you!
[19:44] Parma
    It's a shame I couldn't make
    it into your class, though.
[19:47] Cain
    No, Class A is plenty impressive.
[19:50] Cain
    If there's anything you don't
    understand, just ask me.
[19:52] Cain
    I'll be happy to help.
[19:54] Parma
    Okay! I appreciate it!
[19:57] Telestia
    Excuse me, Master Cain. May I?
[20:00] Silk
    You two seem awfully close.
[20:02] Telestia
    Perhaps we need to have a talk?
[20:05] Silk
    Cain, you sit on your heels
    and wait right there.
[20:08] Cain
    Huh? On my heels?
[20:10] Silk
    Just do it! On! Your! Heels!
[20:14] Cain
    Right...
[20:18] Telestia
    Might we have a little talk?
[20:21] Parma
    Sure...
[20:24] Cain
    Just what is this secret meeting about?
[20:28] Cain
    They're hitting it off. Is this the
    start of some weird new alliance?
[20:32] Cain
    Also, how long do I have to sit like this?!
[20:37] Voice
    You're an interesting kid,
    just like the old man said!
[20:39] Voice
    I like you.
[20:41] Voice
    Why don't we have a little chat?
[20:43] Cain
    Who's that?
[20:44] Voice
    Your legs are going numb, aren't they?
[20:46] Voice
    I'm waiting in the library. Come see me.
[20:49] Voice
    Well, come on, get in here. Let's talk.
[21:01] Cain
    Well, I'm here...
[21:13] Yuuya
    Do you take sugar?
[21:14] Cain
    Uh... yes...
[21:16] Cain
    Wait, who are you?!
[21:19] Cain
    And how is there coffee in this world?!
[21:22] Yuuya
    I've been expecting you,
     Cain von Silford-kun...
[21:27] Yuuya
    Also known as... Shiina Kazuya.
[21:35] Cain
    Wh-What?
[23:09] Yuuya
    Here you go. Coffee with sugar.
[23:11] Yuuya
    You really are a child.
[23:13] Yuuya
    Not going to drink it?
[23:16] Yuuya
    Relax. It's not poisoned or anything.
[23:23] Cain
    This is good!
[23:24] Cain
    I haven't had any in nine years,
    so it's off-the-charts good!
