The Brilliant Healer's New Life in the Shadows
Banished as “useless,” Zenos, a self-taught healer from the slums, turns despair into defiance and opens a secret clinic in the city’s shadows. With unlicensed, unmatched magic, he cures, comforts, and rights wrongs, quietly becoming a legend. But as his power grows, even the royal palace takes notice. Can he buck the odds and heal a world that cast him aside?

[00:00] ZENOS
When you're from the slums,
you can't get a license,
[00:04] ZENOS
and it's difficult to register officially.
[00:06] ZENOS
That being the base, I guess I'll work in
the shadows as an underground healer.
[00:12] ZENOS
I actually just got kicked out
of my adventuring party.

I wanted to work as an underground healer
without drawing attention to myself.

[00:15] Lily
Good morning, Zenos.
[00:18] Lily
Time to get up.
[00:38] Zenos
Good morning, Lily.
[00:40] Lily
I made some black tea.
[00:42] Zenos
Thanks.
[00:48] Lily
"A healer is third-rate if
they just heal injuries,
[00:51] Lily
second-rate if they can
wholly heal a person,
[00:53] Lily
and first-rate if they can
make the world a better place."
[00:57] Lily
This is the Kingdom of Herzeth, a nation
whose history is intertwined with healers.
[01:03] Lily
The contributions of
healers helped it expand
[01:06] Lily
and gained it a position of real importance.
[01:10] Lily
The royal hospital is
where many healers gather
[01:14] Lily
to learn more sophisticated healing magic
[01:17] Lily
and earn their license before
beginning their journeys as healers.
[01:22] Lily
But in a corner of the kingdom, there's
someone who didn't receive a formal education
[01:26] Lily
and doesn't have a license
to practice healing.
[01:30] Zonde
Thanks again, man.
[01:35] Zonde
Here's some cash.
[01:37] Zenos
Don't worry about it.
[01:39] Zenos
I'm always willing to heal if
you're willing to pay the price.
[01:43] Zonde
Thanks again!
[01:45] Lily
That was great, Zenos.
[01:48] Lily
You've got a house call today, right?
[01:50] Zenos
Yeah. I'll be back before nightfall.
[01:53] Lily
Okay! I'll be ready and
waiting with dinner by then.
[01:56] Lily
Have a safe trip!
[01:59] Zenos
I'm heading out.
[02:16] Liily
Oh, Carmilla! Dinner isn't ready yet.
[02:20] Carmilla
Let's have a look...
[02:22] Carmilla
Stew, eh? I always look forward
to your cooking, Lily!
[02:28] Lily
Leave it to me! 'Cuz I'm gonna
be Zenos's wife someday!
[02:32] Lily
I can always cook something tasty!
[02:37] Carmilla
Such a hard worker.
[02:39] Carmilla
I believe I'll rest in my room for now, though.
[02:45] Zophia
Doc?
[02:48] Zophia
I'm here to visit.
[02:49] Zophia
Huh? Is he not in?
[02:52] Lily
Zophia, Zenos is off on a house call.
[02:56] Zophia
Seriously?
[02:57] Zophia
I guess I'll wait until he gets back, then.
[03:04] Zophia
I was hoping to have him to
myself by showing up early...
[03:09] Zophia
I figured you'd show.
[03:11] Lynga
Sir Zenos! Lynga has come to see you.
[03:16] Lynga
No one's around...
[03:18] Lily
Zenos is on a house call.
[03:21] Zophia
Hey.
[03:23] Lynga
Lynga was going to lick Sir Zenos
all over while he fluffed my tail...
[03:29] Zophia
I'm already waiting for Doc to get
back, so how about you run on home?
[03:33] Lynga
Lynga will be the one waiting.
[03:38] Lily
I actually live here!
[03:42] Zophia
Guess you're right!
[03:45] Lynga
She's here, too.
[03:49] Loewe
Zenos! I've come for amusement.
[03:52] Loewe
Where are you?
[03:54] Lily
Loewe, Zenos is on a house call.
[03:57] Lily
The others are inside.
[03:59] Lily
You can join us, but only after fixing the door.
[04:02] Loewe
The whole gang's here, I see.
[04:05] Lynga
You all copy Lynga.
[04:07] Loewe
Let me guess: you both found the promise
of Lily's cooking irresistible?
[04:10] Zophie
No, that's just you.
[04:17] Lily
And now the secret ingredient...
[04:22] Lily
We'll be eating when Zenos gets back.
Are you all going to join us?
[04:26] Loewe
That was my intention.
[04:28] Zophia
Since I'm here, I might as well.
[04:31] Lynga
Of course, Lynga will eat, too!
[04:37] Lily
I'm looking forward to a group meal.
[04:40] Lily
But I'd better put the laundry away.
[04:43] Lily
Watch the pot, okay?
[04:49] Zophia
Whatever it is, it smells good.
[04:52] Lynga
I can't wait until dinner!
[04:54] Loewe
I was thinking the same thing.
[04:57] Loewe
Let's have a quick taste while it's still hot.
[05:03] Loewe
This is amazing!
[05:05] Lynga
Lynga, too!
[05:06] Lynga
This isn't sneaking a bite. Just a taste test!
[05:12] Loewe
I can't stop.
[05:13] Zophia
Unbelievable... Lily is gonna
be pissed at you two.
[05:19] Lynga
That was Lynga's!
[05:24] Zophia
Maybe just a sample, so I can learn
how the doc likes his food seasoned...
[05:44] Lily
I hope Zenos gets back early.
[05:53] Zophia
Well, this is a real mess
we've gotten ourselves into.
[05:57] Lynga
Lynga agrees.
[05:59] Loewe
My stomach can attest to that.
[06:02] Lynga
You two ate it all!
[06:05] Loewe
Exactly! You two are unbelievable.
[06:08] Zophia
Do you girls have amnesia or something?
[06:11] Lynga
Oh, good idea! Lynga remembers nothing!
[06:15] Loewe
I get it! We can just make more!
[06:18] Zophia
So that's your plan, eh?
[06:21] Zophia
I guess I'm in, then.
[06:23] Zophia
Let's fill this pot up with ingredients.
[06:33] Lily
Would any of you care to
explain what happened?
[06:36] Lily
Zophia. Lynga. Loewe.
[06:42] Zophia
It's actually a complicated story...
[06:45] Lynga
Lynga doesn't know.
[06:47] Loewe
I'm not sure myself.
[06:50] Lily
I'm not sure I heard that right.
[06:53] Lily
One more time: please explain what happened.
[06:59] Zophia
It smelled so good, I wanted to taste it...
[07:02] Lynga
Lynga's hands moved on their own.
[07:06] Loewe
It was very good!
[07:10] Zophia
Great, now she's upset because of you two.
[07:13] Lynga
Loewe eats too much!
[07:15] Loewe
It was so good, I couldn't stop!
[07:17] Zophia
Don't blame the food.
[07:19] Loewe
I nearly ate the whole pot...
[07:21] Lynga
That can't be good for digestion.
[07:23] Loewe
I could always have Zenos
check me out after.
[07:26] Zophia
Don't waste Doc's time with
that kind of nonsense.
[07:29] Lynga
The fur on Lynga's tail is feeling rough,
[07:32] Lynga
so I need Zenos to rub it like usual.
[07:35] Zophia
Quit sharing your delusions with us.
[07:38] Lynga
Zophia, jealousy is not becoming.
[07:40] Loewe
Maybe instead of Lynga, you should be
envious of this honed body of steel?
[07:46] Lynga
Sir Zenos wouldn't like a bulgy mess!
[07:50] Lynga
He likes Lynga's double serving of
athletic slenderness and fluffy goodness!
[07:54] Zophia
You two are getting way off track.
[07:57] Lynga
Loser lizard is chirping again.
[07:59] Zophia
You got something to say, pup?
[08:01] Loewe
Don't leave me out.
[08:03] Zophia
Stay out of it.
[08:04] Lily
Everyone...
[08:06] Lily
If you start fighting, Zenos will be mad.
[08:11] Lily
I was really hoping we
could all eat together.
[08:16] Zophia
I'm sorry, Lily.
[08:18] Lynga
Sorry! Lynga will help make dinner!
[08:22] Loewe
You'll have my aid, too.
[08:23] Loewe
I can handle heavier tasks!
[08:26] Lily
We only had enough ingredients
to make that one batch...
[08:31] Lily
Nothing else.
[08:32] Carmilla
Excuse me?
[08:36] Lynga
So sorry!
[08:39] Carmilla
I was so looking forward to eating the
stew Lily made... and you ate it all?
[08:47] Carmilla
Whatever should I do about that?
[08:50] Carmilla
Maybe I'll see what a soul that's
been flavored with stew tastes like?
[08:55] Lynga
You two, apologize!
[08:56] Three
We're so sorry!
[08:59] Lily
Ingredients...
[09:01] Lily
I need you all to bring me more ingredients.
[09:06] Lynga
Lynga will get what you need!
[09:08] Zophia
Consider it done!
[09:10] Zophia
I'll get you the real good stuff!
[09:14] Loewe
I can get as much as you need!
[09:23] Lily
That was the last of the herbs, too...
[09:26] Carmilla
Shouldn't you have been angrier with them?
[09:29] Lily
I'm not that mad.
[09:33] Carmilla
You're certainly forgiving, Lily.
[09:36] Carmilla
If they had gotten into my
liquor as well as the food,
[09:39] Carmilla
they'd have all been cursed.
[09:42] Lily
It's because I'm a grown-up!
[09:46] Lily
Plus, I like it when we're all together.
[09:51] Lily
I wonder if I'll be able to finish
dinner by the time Zenos gets back...
[10:10] Forbes?
Unbelievable. Just what are you doing?
[10:15] Forbes?
What am I going to do with you?
[10:18] Forbes?
Where have you been?
[10:21] Til
M-My stomach hurt, so I went to a hospital,
[10:26] Til
but I didn't have any money,
so they wouldn't see me...
[10:30] Forbes
Do you really think a stomachache is enough
to get you a reprieve? You, a slave?
[10:35] Forbes
Ridiculous. Back to work with you.
[10:39] Til
I-I'm so sorry!
[10:56] Forbes
A grimy grave like this is perfectly
suited to a grimy demihuman.
[11:05] Forbes
This is pathetic. On your feet already!
[11:09] Forbes
For you to give me all this trouble...
[11:12] Forbes
Do you want to be in one of these graves?!
[11:20] Forbes
That's enough loafing around.
[11:23] Forbes
Hurry and find anything of value.
[11:28] Forbes
You can't even talk anymore?
[11:31] Forbes
Absolutely worthless.
[11:34] Forbes
I'll be heading back now.
[11:37] Forbes
You will be fed today... if you earn it.
[11:50] Forbes
Blood?
[11:53] Forbes
What are you doing?!
[11:59] Forbes
Damn it. What is going on here?
[12:07] Forbes
You there!
[12:14] Forbes
My slave has gone mad and
started attacking me!
[12:17] Forbes
Can you do something?!
[12:19] Zenos
What are you talking about?
[12:21] Zenos
Kind of self-absorbed, aren't you?
[12:24] Forbes
She's caught up with me! That's her!
[12:32] Zenos
What were you doing?
[12:34] Forbes
Just our usual work.
[12:38] Zenos
What work is that?
[12:40] Forbes
A bit of farming, that's all.
[12:43] Forbes
Now, look at these wounds!
[12:46] Forbes
I need to get to a hospital
as soon as possible!
[12:49] Forbes
If you can do something
about her, I'll pay you!
[12:56] Zenos
What's wrong?
[12:58] Zenos
That was rather violent.
[12:59] Zenos
You feeling all right?
[13:04] Forbes
Quite impressive...
[13:07] Forbes
Now do away with her!
[13:09] Zenos
That's not happening.
[13:10] Forbes
Why?
[13:12] Zenos
My job isn't killing people.
[13:15] Forbes
If you insist on that kind of nonsense,
[13:18] Forbes
you could get me—an aristocrat—killed!
[13:21] Forbes
She's just a slave! I can
always buy a new one!
[13:28] Zenos
Sorry, but I try to save any lives I can.
[13:35] Forbes
And who do you think you are?
[13:38] Zenos
A healer.
[13:50] Forbes
What kind of healer can do that?!
[13:55] Zenos
She's fast. Faster than your
average demihuman should be.
[14:22] Zenos
I'll get you up in a second.
Just calm down for me.
[14:26] Til
No, no, no...
[14:30] Til
It hurts...
[14:33] Til
I can't... anymore...
[14:37] Zenos
That explains it.
[14:43] Zenos
I've heard of dinner and conversation,
[14:46] Zenos
but dinner and possession is new.
[14:48] Zenos
I'll take care of you now. Heal.
[14:58] Zenos
I wonder what kind of "farming"
gets you possessed by ghosts.
[15:02] Zenos
This takes care of today's work, though.
[15:10] Forbes
Her broken leg was healed in an instant.
[15:14] Forbes
He's incredibly powerful!
[15:20] Forbes
Y-You there... You're actually a healer.
[15:26] Zenos
Yeah, I am.
[15:28] Forbes
Th-Then save me!
[15:31] Zenos
I'm off the clock for today, actually.
[15:33] Zenos
Can you hold out until tomorrow?
[15:35] Forbes
Tomorrow? I'll die by then!
[15:39] Forbes
Heal me right now!
[15:41] Zenos
Right now, huh?
[15:43] Zenos
It'll cost you a bit extra. Is that all right?
[15:49] Forbes
That should more than suffice.
[15:52] Zenos
Whoa.
[15:53] Zenos
That's nowhere near enough.
[15:55] Forbes
Th-That's not enough?!
[15:58] Forbes
But it's already more than the market price!
[16:01] Forbes
Do you really think a healer can fleece
someone with such extravagant costs?!
[16:08] Zenos
Well, I'm an underground healer
without a license, so...
[16:13] Forbes
Underground healer? Such a thing exists?
[16:18] Zenos
It's an underworld gig.
Kind of like grave-robbing.
[16:21] Forbes
Grave-robbing? Whatever do you mean?
[16:25] Zenos
Oh, right, "farming."
[16:29] Zenos
In that case...
[16:31] Zenos
I'll take her to make up the difference.
[16:35] Forbes
Her? The slave?
[16:40] Forbes
Do what you will with her!
[16:43] Zenos
All right, you've got a deal.
[16:49] Zenos
That's your payment taken care of.
[16:53] Forbes
Bloody job's not worth the trouble...
[17:06] Zenos
You awake?
[17:08] Til
Ow...
[17:10] Til
Who are you?
[17:12] Zenos
I'm Zenos.
[17:13] Zenos
I bought you.
[17:16] Zenos
How's your name pronounced?
[17:18] Til
I'm Til.
[17:21] Til
You... bought me?
[17:24] Zenos
Yeah. Now strip, Til.
[17:29] Zenos
You cost a lot.
[17:31] Zenos
I've gotta make sure
you're in good condition.
[17:42] Til
Right...
[17:59] Zenos
I knew it.
[18:01] Zenos
There's a gallstone blocking your
bile duct, causing inflammation.
[18:04] Zenos
You were hunched over as
if you had abdominal pain.
[18:06] Zenos
That and the jaundice caught
my interest, so I followed you.
[18:09] Zenos
I'll fix you right up.
[18:17] Til
What just happened?
[18:19] Zenos
What do you mean?
[18:21] Zenos
I opened you up, took the stone
out, and closed you back up.
[18:24] Til
No incantation, no magic circle...
[18:28] Til
No trace of an opening, either!
[18:31] Zenos
Any healer could pull that off.
[18:34] Til
You can do all that, Master?!
[18:37] Zenos
It's just normal.
[18:39] Til
No, it's not!
[18:44] Til
Thank you for curing me.
[18:47] Til
I don't know how to thank you...
[18:49] Zenos
You really think thanks are enough?
[18:52] Zenos
What I want is an equal price.
[18:54] Zenos
That means it's time for you to get to work.
[18:57] Til
Wh-Whatever you want!
[18:59] Til
I'll pay you back as your slave!
[19:05] Til
Ask... whatever you want.
[19:10] Zenos
Could you show me where to find this?
[19:13] Zenos
Or not?
[19:15] Til
I-I can.
[19:19] Til
Right this way, please.
[19:28] Til
Is this right?
[19:32] Zenos
It sure is.
[19:34] Zenos
Thanks, Til.
[19:37] Til
Thanks aren't necessary.
[19:39] Til
But is this really all you need?
[19:42] Til
I was anticipating... a lot more.
[19:47] Til
And I'm willing to...
[19:49] Zenos
Nah, you did your job.
[19:52] Til
What do you mean?
[19:54] Zenos
Just what I said.
[19:56] Til
But, Master, I'm indebted to you!
[20:00] Zenos
And like I said, you paid me back.
[20:02] Zenos
I always demand a fair
price for the labor I do,
[20:05] Zenos
and I always pay a fair price
for what I expect others to do.
[20:07] Til
I haven't done anything yet.
[20:11] Zenos
You found the leaves.
[20:14] Zenos
Leaves I couldn't have found on my own.
[20:17] Til
B-But those are just...
[20:20] Zenos
Point is, their value is equal
to what I did for you.
[20:26] Zenos
All debts are settled.
[20:28] Zenos
Your life's your own now.
[20:32] Til
My life is... my own?
[20:36] Til
What... I would like to do now is...
[20:43] Til
I don't really know.
[20:46] Til
But now that I'm not a slave,
I'm going to live to find out!
[20:50] Til
And when I do find out,
I'll come and tell you!
[20:54] Til
Is that all right, Zenos?
[20:58] Zenos
Sure.
[21:00] Zenos
See you around, Til.
[21:02] Zenos
If you get hurt, come and see me.
[21:04] Zenos
I can take care of you
as an underground healer.
[21:06] Zenos
But not for free, of course.
[21:14] Zenos
I'm back.
[21:17] Lily
Welcome back, Zenos.
[21:19] Lily
D-Dinner's not ready yet...
[21:24] Loewe
Zenos!
[21:24] Lynga
Sir Zenos!
[21:24] Zophia
Doc!
[21:25] Zenos
What are you three doing here?
[21:27] Zophia
Maybe don't ask, okay?
[21:30] Lynga
Lynga didn't do anything wrong.
[21:32] Zoewe
I assure you, I did not sneak any food!
[21:35] Lily
Vegetables, fish, and lots of meat!
[21:39] Lily
I gotta make the most of all this!
[21:44] Carmilla
You seem to have had some fun.
[21:47] Zenos
Didn't see you up there.
[21:51] Carmilla
Well, well, is that a new
girl I sense you've met?
[21:56] Zenos
Quit poking fun.
[22:01] Lily
Since everyone brought so much,
[22:04] Lily
I can make a whole bunch of food!
[22:06] Zenos
Yeah? Sounds good.
[22:09] Lily
Just you wait!
[22:16] Lily
I'll make some black tea first,
[22:18] Lily
and we can drink it together!
[22:22] Zenos
Sure.

[00:04] Zenos
What's this?
[00:05] Aston
I figured you'd never seen one before.
[00:09] Aston
It's a gold coin,
[00:11] Aston
the kind of reward a poor joker like you
would normally never see in his whole life.
[00:16] Zenos
Aston, what is this all abou—
[00:18] Aston
Zenos.
[00:19] Aston
You haven't done a damn thing lately.
[00:22] Aston
Frankly, we don't need you anymore.
[00:24] Zenos
I've been doing plenty,
[00:26] Zenos
and I thought you said we were friends.
[00:33] Aston
You're as dumb as you
were when you were a kid!
[00:36] Aston
Anybody would've been fine,
as long as they were disposable.
[00:41] Aston
Saves a whole lot of heartache if they
end up dying as human shields, y'know?
[00:45] Aston
And you poor are basically livestock, anyway.
[00:48] Aston
Imagine that, a beast of burden thinking
he's part of the gang just because we fed him.
[00:52] Aston
Talk about hilarious.
[00:54] Aston
We've gotten strong!
[00:57] Aston
We're one of the most famous parties around!
[00:59] Zenos
Because I was there to—
[01:01] Aston
Don't try to take credit for it with
your shady, self-taught healing magic.
[01:07] Aston
We've gotta make our party look good to
the aristocracy and royalty from now on.
[01:12] Aston
You can guess how they'd react with
some pissant from the slums in our crew.
[01:20] Aston
Consider that your severance pay.
[01:21] Aston
It should be enough to get
you wherever you wanna go.
[01:24] Aston
And you'd better keep your
impoverished mouth shut
[01:27] Aston
about ever having been a
member of the Golden Phoenix.
[01:31] Zenos
It's hush money, then.
[01:35] Zenos
Fine.
[01:45] Lily
No! Let go!
[01:47] Lily
Don't! Stop it!
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[03:21] Lily
No! Stop it!
[03:24] Woman
You know how rare elves are.
Make sure to hold her tight.
[03:27] Man
Better not think you can get
away, little elf girlie.
[03:42] Man
Damn it!
[03:55] Man
Let me go, you little runt!
[04:02] Zenos
What am I gonna do now?
[04:04] Man
Stupid brat!
[04:08] Woman
What are you doing stabbing
our merchandise, you idiot?
[04:10] Man
I'm sorry, but she...
[04:16] Zenos
Whoa, did you just stab a kid?
[04:18] Woman
Excuse me? She belongs to us.
[04:21] Woman
This is none of your business.
[04:24] Zenos
I'll buy her from you, then.
[04:28] Woman
Sounds like a deal. She's yours.
[04:32] Woman
Let's get moving.
[04:35] Woman
If she's dying anyway, better
that we get paid something.
[04:38] Man
Oh, yeah! Nice one, boss!
[04:41] Zenos
Hey. You still there?
[04:43] Lily
Am I... gonna die?
[04:47] Zenos
Don't worry. I can fix this kind of damage.
[04:54] Lily
It's too late... I can't even
feel the pain anymore...
[04:57] Zenos
I already healed you,
so you can talk normally now.
[05:01] Lily
Huh? It doesn't hurt, and the wound's gone.
[05:05] Lily
I thought for sure I'd die!
[05:08] Lily
Why am I back to normal?
[05:10] Zenos
Well, I'm a healer.
[05:12] Zenos
All I had to do was take the arrow out,
fix the damage, and seal up the wounds.
[05:17] Lily
Thank you... Thank you, mister!
[05:22] Zenos
Um, so... What's your name?
[05:25] Lily
Lily.
[05:26] Lily
Um, about your money...
[05:29] Zenos
You mean the gold coin I paid them?
[05:32] Zenos
Don't worry about it.
[05:33] Zenos
I wasn't thrilled about holding on to
my severance pay from Aston, anyway.
[05:37] Lily
So, who are you? A famous healer?
[05:42] Zenos
My name's Zenos.
[05:43] Zenos
I don't have a healing
license, and I'm self-taught.
[05:47] Zenos
Anyway, where do you live?
[05:49] Lily
I don't... have a home.
[05:55] Zenos
I guess we'll start by getting you some
clothes and something to eat, Lily.
[05:59] Lily
O-Okay.
[06:06] Lily
So good!
[06:11] Lily
Aren't you gonna eat, Zenos?
[06:13] Zenos
I'm... full already.
[06:16] Lily
Okay!
[06:19] Zenos
The truth is, I'm broke.
[06:21] Zenos
But I'll deal with that later.
[06:24] Zenos
What do I do with her?
[06:25] Zenos
Maybe an orphanage in the slums...
[06:27] Zenos
No. Just thinking about the way she'd
be treated is enough to depress me.
[06:32] Lily
Where do you work out of, Zenos?
[06:35] Zenos
I was actually just kicked out
of my old adventuring party.
[06:39] Zenos
So I've got nowhere to go.
[06:40] Lily
Just like me, then.
[06:44] Zenos
For now, I guess I'd better look for a job.
[06:49] Zonde
Sorry, but... c-can I get some water?
[06:54] Zenos
That arm...
[06:56] Zenos
A bullet hole and a large burn.
You were shot with a magic gun.
[06:59] Zonde
Yeah, I got careless, and
they made me pay for it.
[07:04] Zonde
I just wish it didn't hurt so bad...
[07:07] Zenos
You're overreacting.
[07:08] Zenos
It's worse than a scratch,
but it should heal in no time.
[07:11] Zonde
Buddy, what the hell are you on?
[07:15] Zenos
That said, it is pretty deep.
[07:18] Zenos
Including an incantation
will probably be safer.
[07:22] Zenos
Heal.
[07:27] Zonde
What did you just do?
[07:29] Zonde
Who the hell are you?
[07:31] Lily
Zenos is an amazing healer!
[07:35] Zonde
Zenos... I've never heard
of such an awesome healer.
[07:42] Zonde
I appreciate it, man.
[07:45] Zonde
See ya around! I'm gonna remember you!
[07:51] Lily
Why are you so quiet, Zenos?
[07:54] Zenos
You pay a restaurant for
the food you get from it...
[07:58] Zenos
So does that mean healers can
be paid for their services, too?
[08:02] Lily
That sounds normal to me.
[08:05] Zenos
Right... Of course.
[08:08] (Flashback) Lily
Thank you!
[08:11] Zenos
Remember how you said "thank you"
when I healed you, Lily?
[08:15] Lily
I think thanking someone when
they help you is normal, too.
[08:21] Zenos
That settles it, then. I'm going
to open up a healing clinic.
[08:25] Lily
A clinic?
[08:27] Zenos
What you said really made me happy.
[08:29] Zenos
I'd never been thanked like that before.
[08:33] Zenos
But since I'm from the slums,
I can't get a license,
[08:37] Zenos
and running a legit business
will probably be tough...
[08:40] Zenos
In that case, I'd have to
work in the shadows...
[08:42] Zenos
I'd be an underground healer.
[08:45] Lily
An underground healer! That's cool!
[08:47] Lily
You're so cool, Zenos!
[08:49] Lily
I wanna help with your clinic!
[08:52] Zenos
Running a clinic without a
license would be illegal.
[08:55] Zenos
Should I drag an innocent
kid into something like that?
[08:58] Lily
You already bought me, Zenos!
[09:00] Lily
That makes you my master!
[09:02] Lily
So I'm going to follow you!
[09:04] Zenos
I was just trying to help you...
[09:06] Lily
So you paid for me when you were
gonna just throw me out after?
[09:10] Lily
I don't mean anything to you, huh?
[09:12] Zenos
Don't say stuff that could be misinterpreted.
[09:15] Zenos
Fine, but only until we find somewhere
safe for you to live, okay?
[09:19] Lily
Really?! That's great!
[09:22] Lily
I'm going to take such
good care of you, Master!
[09:25] Zenos
Seriously, mind the phrasing.
[09:31] Lily
You really want to run your clinic here?
[09:34] Lily
I don't see any sign of people.
[09:36] Zenos
That's because this part
of town is abandoned.
[09:38] Lily
Why pick it, then?
[09:40] Zenos
If I'm running an underground operation,
I can't exactly do it openly, can I?
[09:44] Lily
That makes sense! You're smart, Zenos!
[09:46] Zenos
And there are a lot of
intact houses around here.
[09:51] Zenos
This one seems in decent condition.
[09:56] Zenos
Let's take a look inside, then.
[09:58] Lily
S-Sure...
[10:00] Zenos
What's wrong? You scared?
[10:02] Lily
It's just... I know about how monsters
tend to be born in scary places like this.
[10:08] Lily
What if we run into a
wraith? We'll be done for!
[10:11] Zenos
A wraith?
[10:12] Lily
They're the strongest undead monsters!
[10:15] Lily
They look just like people, but they
can kill you and turn you into a ghost
[10:19] Lily
that has to obey them, just by touching you!
[10:27] Lily
Zenos, hang on.
[10:30] Lily
Holy lamplight that brightens the night,
[10:32] Lily
become a dazzling shine that
chases away the darkness,
[10:34] Lily
and show me the way! Illuminate!
[10:38] Zenos
You can use magic?
[10:40] Lily
Yep. Just simple stuff, though.
[10:45] Lily
Wow, this place...
[10:49] Zenos
Yeah, it's not bad.
[10:51] Lily
You really think so?
[10:53] Zenos
Yeah. I mean, it's got a roof.
[10:55] Lily
Well, yeah, it does, but...
[10:57] Zenos
When I was in a party, I spent
most of my nights outdoors alone.
[11:02] Zenos
The support beams are in great shape.
[11:04] Zenos
It just needs a bit of work to be livable.
[11:06] Lily
You're really optimistic, Zenos.
[11:08] Zenos
I've already lost everything I had.
[11:10] Zenos
No sense in being negative now.
[11:23] Carmilla
The aroma of life.
[11:25] Carmilla
Give it to me.
[11:27] Carmilla
Give it to me.
[11:28] Lily
Zenos, it's a wraith!
We actually ran into one!
[11:32] Zenos
I guess this place was occupied.
[11:34] Zenos
This is probably the best
property around here, after all.
[11:37] Lily
Zenos, how are you so calm?
[11:44] Zenos
Heal.
[11:48] Zenos
I get it. So these are wraiths.
[11:51] Zenos
I've taken down a hundred or so of them.
[11:54] Aston
When something was bugging Aston,
[11:56] Aston
he'd send me into an underground
labyrinth to cheer himself up,
[11:59] Aston
and I ran into a lot of them there.
[12:02] Aston
Which is how I know undead monsters
are weak to healing magic.
[12:06] Lily
I've heard even encountering
a wraith means you die,
[12:10] Lily
yet you fought a hundred?
[12:11] Zenos
Sorry, but this building really does
look like the only option around here.
[12:15] Zenos
We'll stay out of your way,
so do you mind if we move in?
[12:18] Carmilla
What are you saying, you wretch?
[12:21] Carmilla
Hurry up and surrender...
[12:24] Carmilla
your life!
[12:25] Zenos
Heal.
[12:27] Zenos
Oh, sorry. You were trying to attack me, so...
[12:30] Zenos
I didn't mean anything by it.
[12:32] Carmilla
Unacceptable.
[12:34] Carmilla
No mortal has ever enraged Carmilla,
queen of the specters, like this before.
[12:38] Carmilla
Gather before me, my servants!
[12:40] Carmilla
Slaughter these ignorant humans!
[12:44] Lily
Zenos!
[12:47] Zenos
I was hoping to do this
the peaceful way, but...
[12:50] Zenos
High Heal.
[12:54] Carmilla
Wh-What is this?!
[12:56] Carmilla
What in the world are you?!
[12:58] Zenos
Nobody important. Just an underground healer.
[13:01] Zenos
And I really am sorry.
[13:03] Zenos
We're okay with just a room to
do our healing and one bedroom.
[13:07] Carmilla
U-Use the first floor as you'd like!
[13:09] Carmilla
But the second floor belongs to me!
[13:12] Zenos
You've got it. I really appreciate it.
[13:14] Zenos
We've got our clinic, Lily.
[13:16] Lily
I really don't know if I should
be happy or sad right now.
[13:26] Lily
So bored...
[13:28] Zenos
Nothing wrong with that.
[13:29] Zenos
It gives us plenty of time to clean.
[13:32] Zenos
This place is actually starting
to look like a real clinic now.
[13:34] Zenos
Even if we are sharing the
building with a wraith...
[13:37] Lily
I know, but...
[13:39] Lily
Maybe I should go outside
and advertise a little?
[13:43] Lily
We went to the trouble of making
this nurse outfit, after all.
[13:48] Zenos
But if we make ourselves too visible,
[13:50] Zenos
the royal hospital could find out about us.
[13:53] Lily
But we won't get any patients at this rate.
[13:56] Zenos
Don't worry. They should
be showing up any time now.
[13:59] Lily
Really?
[14:01] Zonde
Is this Zenos's clinic?
[14:03] Lily
Wow, he was right.
[14:06] Lily
Good afternoon!
[14:07] Lily
Wait... Huh? I've seen him before.
[14:12] Zenos
I figured you'd show.
[14:13] Zonde
You knew I'd come?
[14:16] Zenos
Someone with a magic gunshot
burn isn't your average guy.
[14:20] Zenos
And people like that tend to have reasons
for not wanting to visit a normal hospital.
[14:25] Zonde
My name's Zonde.
[14:27] Zonde
I was hoping you'd take a
look at my sister today.
[14:30] Zophia
I hear you're supposed to be
a real impressive healer, Doc.
[14:33] Zophia
You up for it?
[14:35] Zenos
I don't know about "real impressive,"
[14:36] Zenos
but I can examine you, sure.
[14:39] Zophia
My arm's been acting funny
ever since I got shot.
[14:43] Zenos
It must've been a magic gun
with a special poison effect.
[14:46] Zenos
The bullet's still in your arm and
causing the flesh around it to decay.
[14:49] Zophia
You got all that just from looking at it?
[14:51] Zenos
I was almost made into a
test subject for one once.
[14:55] Zophia
There must be some real psychos out there...
[14:57] Zenos
Definitely. Now that I think about it, I'm
gonna need to get some payback one day.
[15:01] Zophia
So, can you fix me up?
[15:03] Zenos
Your arm is almost fully dead.
[15:05] Zenos
It'd be better to amputate
before the poison can spread.
[15:09] Zophia
It is what it is, I guess.
[15:11] Zophia
How much do I owe you?
[15:12] Zenos
It'll be a million wen.
[15:14] Zonde
Say what?! You want a million
wen for lopping an arm off?!
[15:17] Zophia
Easy there, Zonde.
[15:19] Zophia
Gotta say, you really play hardball, Doc.
[15:23] Zophia
You giving me that price knowing
I'm Zophia the Tornado?
[15:28] Zenos
You're Zophia the Tornado?
[15:30] Zenos
I had no idea my first
patient was such a big deal.
[15:33] Zenos
One of the three bosses who run the
slums, leader of the lizardmen...
[15:37] Zenos
Hero to the downtrodden,
[15:39] Zenos
who steals from crooked merchants and
returns a portion of it to the poor.
[15:43] Zophia
Asking a million wen for chopping an arm off.
[15:46] Zophia
How're you gonna justify that to me?
[15:49] Zophia
Because if you can't...
[15:50] Zenos
First of all, who said cutting
off your arm was all I'd do?
[15:54] Zenos
No point in doing that if
I don't generate a new one.
[15:56] Zenos
And regeneration is exhausting.
[15:58] Zenos
I'm never working for free again, understand?
[16:01] Zenos
I don't care if you're a big
shot in the slums or a king.
[16:05] Zenos
I want fair pay for my labor from now on.
[16:07] Zophia
What are you saying?
[16:09] Zophia
I've never heard of a healer
who can grow an arm back.
[16:12] Zenos
Other healers can't do that?
[16:14] Zenos
Are you serious?
[16:15] Zenos
I never had proper training,
so I don't know what the standards are.
[16:19] Zenos
Do you mind if we get started?
[16:21] Zophia
Sure... If you can actually do it.
[16:25] Zenos
Scalpel.
[16:27] Zophia
Wh-What is that?
[16:29] Zenos
It's a blade made from mana. Very sharp.
[16:32] Zenos
It's also sterile, and I can
summon it or dispel it at will.
[16:35] Zophia
I've never heard of a healer who
uses something like that, either!
[16:38] Zenos
Really? Then how do they make incisions?
[16:42] Zenos
Cast a spell that heals over time on the
affected area to numb the pain, and then...
[16:48] Zenos
Okay, now comes the hard part.
[16:52] Zenos
Defensive magic to control the bleeding
while casting multiple healing spells...
[16:56] Zenos
Amplify the regeneration of the
wounded area many times over.
[16:59] Zenos
First, the bones.
[17:03] Zenos
Then the nerves.
[17:06] Zenos
Blood vessels, muscles, and then skin...
[17:11] Zenos
There, all done.
[17:12] Zenos
I'm exhausted.
[17:15] Zenos
A rush job would've been easier,
[17:17] Zenos
but a perfect restoration
really takes it out of me.
[17:21] Lily
Great job, Zenos!
[17:23] Zophia
You've blown my mind.
[17:25] Zophia
I've never seen a healer like you before!
[17:28] Zonde
What's that?
[17:29] Zenos
That's our housemate. She's a wraith.
[17:31] Zonde
You live with a wraith?!
[17:34] Carmilla
I was hoping you'd fail and she'd die.
[17:37] Carmilla
I am ever so starved for life.
[17:38] Zonde
She seems kinda bloodthirsty, man!
[17:40] Zenos
Don't mind her. Deep down, she's a real softie.
[17:43] Zonde
Pretty sure she's not!
[17:47] Zophia
You're amazing, Doc. And hilarious!
[17:51] Zophia
I like you. Hope you don't mind
me sending my people your way.
[17:55] Zophia
And, of course, they'll be paying.
[18:02] Lily
Zenos, I made some tea!
[18:04] Zenos
Thanks. You're pretty considerate, Lily.
[18:08] Lily
Praise me more!
[18:13] Zenos
I'm curious why you made three, though.
[18:16] Lily
For me, you, and Carmilla!
[18:18] Zenos
You think she'll drink any?
[18:20] Carmilla
Indeed I will.
[18:21] Zenos
Okay, guess so.
[18:22] Lily
Careful not to burn yourself.
[18:25] Carmilla
That is a good idea.
[18:28] Zenos
A wraith worried about burning herself
on tea doesn't seem very scary.
[18:30] Carmilla
I heard that. Would you
like me to chase you off?
[18:33] Lily
Ever since Zophia came by, we've
been getting a lot of patients, huh?
[18:37] Zenos
We sure have.
[18:39] Carmilla
And none of them have died,
which is quite tiresome for me.
[18:41] Carmilla
Hot! Hot, hot, hot!
[18:45] Lily
So, Zenos, why are the
lizardmen always injured?
[18:50] Zenos
Probably a beef with one
of the other factions.
[18:53] Zenos
There's a three-way demihuman
standoff in the slums,
[18:56] Zenos
and the fighting is ongoing.
[18:58] Zenos
The lizardmen, the orcs, and...
[19:01] Lily
What was that sound?!
[19:02] Zenos
I think we're about to meet the third group.
[19:12] Lynga
You must be Zenos, the underground healer.
[19:15] Lynga
I'm Lynga, the boss of the slum's werewolves!
[19:18] Zenos
She's said to run all the illegal
gambling in the underground.
[19:21] Zenos
Lynga the tyrant.
[19:23] Zenos
I keep running into these
underworld big shots...
[19:26] Zenos
We're technically closed,
but if it's bad enough,
[19:29] Zenos
I can provide emergency service.
[19:31] Lynga
The emergency here is you, Zenos.
[19:35] Lynga
No matter how bad we beat Zophia's
lizards, they keep popping back up.
[19:40] Lynga
I thought it was weird,
and then I learned about you.
[19:42] Lynga
Zenos, you seem to be quite the healer!
[19:47] Zenos
I'm just an unremarkable underground healer.
[19:49] Zenos
I don't even have a license.
[19:50] Lynga
I think I'm gonna kill you!
[19:53] Zenos
Are you listening?
[19:54] Lynga
Then no one can heal Zophia's men!
[19:57] Zenos
Hello?
[19:59] Lynga
Then I can beat Zophia!
[20:04] Lynga
Why didn't your head come off?!
[20:06] Zenos
You're not listening at all.
[20:09] Zenos
Lily, this is gonna get rough,
so wait in the back room.
[20:12] Lily
R-Right!
[20:14] Zenos
My defense magic is self-taught, too...
but seems effective enough.
[20:17] Lynga
Impossible! Not even a scratch from my axe?!
[20:21] Lynga
Get 'im!
[20:22] Werewolves
Yes, boss!
[20:27] Zenos
Hey. Can we stop now?
[20:29] Lynga
N-No, we can't!
[20:30] Lynga
Fine, then! All of you,
take the building down!
[20:34] Werewolves
Yes, boss!
[20:35] Zenos
Uh, I really wouldn't if I were you.
[20:39] Lynga
If we can't kill you, we'll take your clinic away!
[20:43] Zenos
She seriously doesn't listen at all.
[20:46] Zenos
Whatever. I tried to warn you.
[20:51] Werewolves
A wraith!
[20:52] Werewolves
It's a wraith!
[20:53] Werewolves
A wraith!
[20:54] Carmilla
You dare damage my home?
[20:56] Carmilla
Now, suffer!
[20:57] Werewolves
We're doomed!
[20:58] Werewolves
Mommy!
[21:00] Zenos
Hang on, Carmilla.
[21:02] Zenos
I understand how you feel.
[21:03] Zenos
I'm pretty pissed about the clinic being
messed up after I finally had it looking nice.
[21:08] Carmilla
I don't see the issue, then!
[21:09] Carmilla
Let me take their lives!
[21:11] Zenos
The second floor is yours.
[21:13] Zenos
If they make their way up there, have at it.
[21:15] Zenos
But the first floor is the clinic,
and that's for saving lives,
[21:18] Zenos
not taking them.
[21:20] Carmilla
I realize that! You are so irritating.
[21:23] Zenos
I appreciate you getting mad, though.
[21:26] Carmilla
I-It wasn't for your sake!
[21:28] Carmilla
This is my house.
[21:29] Carmilla
And it's become more
comfortable as of late...
[21:35] Lynga
The wraith... listened to him?
[21:38] Lynga
Sir Zenos! F-Forgive us!
[21:41] Lynga
We didn't know you commanded a wraith!
[21:45] Zenos
I don't, actually.
[21:47] Lynga
We werewolves are nocturnal by nature!
[21:50] Lynga
We're instinctively afraid of higher
existences, like wraiths and vampires!
[21:55] Lynga
You command one, and we were so rude to you!
[21:58] Zenos
I don't really command her, though.
[22:00] Lynga
All of you, bow down!
[22:02] Lynga
Show Sir Zenos how sincere we are!
[22:04] Werewolves
Yes, boss!
[22:06] Zenos
I guess I forgot that she just doesn't listen.
[22:15] Orc
You're Zenos the underground healer, right?
[22:17] Orc
The head of the orcs,
Lady Loewe, would like a word.
[22:21] Lily
Is she a new patient?

[00:02] Zenos
I figured this was coming...
[00:04] Lily
What do you mean?
[00:06] Zenos
After dealing with the lizardmen and
the werewolves, here come the orcs.
[00:10] Zenos
Their leader is a big deal, and made a
fortune on the excavation of mana stones.
[00:14] Zenos
It's been a month since I opened the clinic,
[00:17] Zenos
and after this, I'll have dealt with the
leaders of all the factions in the slums.
[00:22] Zenos
Out of curiosity, would you say
your boss can be reasoned with?
[00:26] Orc
Lady Loewe is as wise as she is dignified.
[00:31] Zenos
I sure hope so.
[00:33] Zenos
Zophia's been dropping off
extravagant gifts every day...
[00:36] Zenos
And Lynga's been building a massive "palace"
next door to make up for the mess she made.
[00:41] Zenos
But if the head of the orcs is reasonable,
[00:43] Zenos
I shouldn't need to worry
about that kind of thing.
[00:45] Zenos
So why didn't she come in person?
[00:48] Orc
There have been lizardmen and werewolves
coming and going from this place.
[00:52] Orc
Do you really think I'd bring Lady
Loewe to a place in enemy territory?
[00:59] Zenos
How serious is it?
[01:00] Orc
She can't be moved.
[01:05] Zenos
You should've led with that.
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[02:41] Orc
In here.
[02:47] Orc
Lady Loewe, I've brought Zenos,
the underground healer.
[02:51] Loewe
Good of you to come.
[02:53] Loewe
I am Loewe.
[02:55] Zenos
So you're Loewe.
[02:56] Zenos
How'd you hear about me?
[02:58] Loewe
How could I not have?
[02:59] Loewe
You're a celebrity to those who dwell
in the underworld of the slums.
[03:03] Zenos
Wow, really?
[03:04] Loewe
The lizardmen and werewolves were raving,
[03:06] Loewe
"There's this awesome healer! But I can't
tell you about him or he'll attract trouble!"
[03:11] Loewe
So I looked into you myself.
[03:14] Zenos
Damn it, what part of
"underground operation"
[03:17] Zenos
made them want to spread
my name around like that?!
[03:19] Loewe
I'm told that you can provide any kind of
healing as long as the price paid is equal.
[03:25] Zenos
I've gotten tired of
working for free, you see.
[03:27] Loewe
Well, I find myself unable to move from
here at the moment. Can you tell why?
[03:32] Zenos
Is this a test? I guess I'll have to check.
[03:38] Zenos
Scan.
[03:40] Loewe
What are you doing?
[03:41] Zenos
I don't see any external injuries,
so I'm looking inside you.
[03:45] Loewe
I've never heard of a
healer who can do that.
[03:48] Zenos
I'm curious how they heal anyone if they
don't check what's going on inside.
[03:54] Zenos
There's a lump in your abdomen.
[03:56] Zenos
And I can sense mana...
[03:58] Zenos
Is it a mana stone?
[04:00] Loewe
Correct you are.
[04:01] Loewe
Enchanted for Explosion at a
particularly high potency, at that.
[04:05] Zenos
Wait, did someone slip this in your food?
[04:07] Loewe
Not at all! I mistook it for a
rice ball and ate it, is all.
[04:10] Zenos
So you're an idiot.
[04:11] Loewe
Despite appearances,
I have quite the appetite!
[04:14] Zenos
I don't care!
[04:15] Zenos
This is ridiculous. You'll expel it
sooner or later without any help.
[04:19] Loewe
I'm afraid not.
[04:21] Loewe
I partially chewed it apart, so there's
not much time until it detonates.
[04:25] Loewe
Not to mention, if I move carelessly,
that could also set it off.
[04:28] Zenos
So that's why you can't move.
[04:30] Loewe
The real problem is that my
men refuse to leave my side.
[04:34] Orcs
Chief!
[04:35] Orcs
When we die, we die together!
[04:37] Orcs
We'll be at your side!
[04:39] Zenos
And what do you expect me to do?
[04:41] Loewe
I'm looking to donate our wealth to you.
[04:44] Loewe
Should this stone detonate, it will spell
the end for the orcs in the slums.
[04:48] Loewe
I'd rather give our accumulated
wealth to someone
[04:51] Loewe
who'd make good use of it
than let it be plundered.
[04:53] Loewe
I've heard that, while you demand
high prices for your healing,
[04:57] Loewe
you're willing to see children for free.
[04:59] Loewe
I'm fond of children myself.
[05:06] Zenos
And you ingested this mana stone recently?
[05:09] Loewe
Yes.
[05:10] Zenos
Scalpel.
[05:13] Orcs
Hey...
[05:15] Zenos
Don't move, now.
[05:16] Orcs
Bastard!
[05:16] Orcs
What do you think you're doing?!
[05:20] Loewe
Wh-What did you just do?
[05:24] Zenos
I opened your stomach to
extract the mana stone.
[05:26] Zenos
And then I healed it shut.
[05:29] Zenos
Without a license, this is
about all I can manage.
[05:32] Loewe
The fact that you can do
it at all is incredible...
[05:36] Loewe
If you're not careful, it could detonate!
[05:38] Zenos
Oh, right.
[05:48] Loewe
N-Not so much as a scratch?!
[05:50] Zenos
I protected my hands with defensive magic.
[05:52] Zenos
It still hurt, though, so I had to heal them.
[05:55] Zenos
We're done here.
[05:57] Zenos
You can have the key back.
[06:00] Loewe
Incredible. If you had stayed quiet, our
entire fortune would have been yours.
[06:06] Zenos
I only demand a price equal to
the amount of work I need to do.
[06:08] Zenos
That would've been too much in this case.
[06:13] Loewe
I like you, Zenos the underground healer!
[06:16] Loewe
You've earned a great debt
from the orcish race today!
[06:18] Loewe
Should you need our help,
just call, and you'll have it!
[06:22] Zenos
I'd really prefer you kept your distance.
[06:24] Loewe
No need for modesty!
[06:25] Loewe
We can provide around-the-clock
security for your clinic, if you'd like!
[06:30] Zenos
Seriously, don't!
[06:33] Loewe
Anyway, the moment I relaxed,
my appetite came back.
[06:35] Loewe
Care to join me for some rice balls, Zenos?
[06:38] Zenos
Maybe you could eat something else?
[06:45] Zenos
What's got you making that sullen face?
[06:47] Lily
Just thinking that Zophia, Lynga,
and Loewe have been visiting a lot lately.
[06:53] Zenos
Now that you mention it, I guess they have.
[06:56] Zenos
Zophia on the day of the moon.
[06:58] Zenos
Lynga on the day of water.
[07:00] Zenos
Loewe on the day of gold.
[07:02] Zenos
And they're never injured.
Why do they bother?
[07:05] Lily
Do you really have no idea at all, Zenos?
[07:09] Zenos
They must really be bored.
[07:10] Lily
I don't think that's it...
[07:13] Carmilla
It sounds like love.
[07:15] Zenos
How long have you been there?
[07:18] Carmilla
These women are infatuated with you.
[07:21] Zenos
What? Don't be ridiculous. There's no way.
[07:24] Zenos
I'm a totally unremarkable underground
healer who doesn't even have a license.
[07:27] Carmilla
There's no fooling my eyes.
[07:29] Carmilla
Whenever I watch from the ceiling,
[07:32] Carmilla
their eyes betray their lovesickness.
[07:34] Carmilla
You learn how to tell these
things after living 300 years.
[07:36] Zenos
Uh, you're not "living," though.
[07:38] Lily
I'm kind of worried.
[07:41] Lily
They're all so pretty...
[07:43] Zenos
And they're all huge weirdos.
[07:46] Carmilla
It's only a matter of time before the three
[07:49] Carmilla
demihuman factions wage
a war over Zenos, I'd say.
[07:53] Zenos
That's absurd.
[07:54] Carmilla
Lily, try and do your best
to amuse me, like them.
[07:59] Lily
B-But I'm only a kid.
[08:02] Lily
I'm not sexy like them...
[08:07] Carmilla
All maidens in love are beautiful.
[08:10] Lily
Th-Thank you, Carmilla!
[08:13] Zenos
The three demihuman leaders
fighting over me?
[08:16] Zenos
That's so ridiculous I can't even laugh.
[08:21] Zophia
Doc, I'm thinking of declaring
war on the others.
[08:24] Zophia
Would you be willing to
side with the lizardmen?
[08:27] Zenos
Say what?
[08:28] Lily
A war over Zenos...
[08:33] Lynga
Sir Zenos! The time has come to
settle things with the others.
[08:37] Lynga
I want you to side with the werewolves!
[08:39] Zenos
Uh, hang on...
[08:40] Loewe
Zenos, the time has come to wipe out the—
[08:43] Zenos
Okay, hold up!
[08:47] Zenos
The fighting's supposed to begin at
noon on the next day of ground...
[08:52] Carmilla
All-out war between all three factions.
[08:55] Carmilla
So many will die because
of your womanizing ways.
[08:59] Zenos
I really don't appreciate
the way you put that.
[09:03] Zenos
And what are you pouting about, Lily?
[09:15] Zophia
You actually had the guts
to show up only to die.
[09:18] Zophia
Today we're gonna settle who
deserves to be on top around here.
[09:22] Lynga
That's so funny!
[09:23] Lynga
Because you're about to find out how much
Lynga has been taking it easy on you two.
[09:28] Loewe
Such foolishness.
[09:30] Loewe
Do you really think you'll be able to
stand against orcs in mortal combat?
[09:32] Loewe
You will both be dying today.
[09:36] Zeons
Hold it right there!
[09:39] Loewe
Zenos?
[09:39] Zophia
Doc?
[09:39] Lynga
Sir Zenos?
[09:41] Zenos
Now, I'm not here to stop this fight.
[09:45] Zenos
I know you three have long-standing
grudges after years of conflict.
[09:49] Zenos
So I want you to have it out
until you're all satisfied.
[09:52] Zenos
That's all I wanted to say.
[09:56] Zophia
Looks like we've got Doc's approval.
[09:59] Zophia
So let's go all-out.
[10:02] Zophia
And whoever survives can
claim him. What do you say?
[10:05] Lynga
You're on! He's already
Lynga's, in that case.
[10:08] Loewe
Zenos's chastity will be mine!
[10:11] Lily
Is that true, Zenos?
[10:14] Zenos
That wasn't part of the deal, no.
[11:08] Lizardman
What is it? They just won't stay down!
[11:11] Orc
Doesn't matter how bad we beat
them, they just keep getting up!
[11:15] Werewolf
Pretty sure we've cut at
least 30 of them down...
[11:19] Zophia
What the...
[11:21] Zophia
My wounds just healed.
[11:23] Zenos
Like I said, I'm not here to stop your fight.
[11:27] Zenos
You're free to keep going.
[11:28] Zenos
But you're also my patients.
[11:32] Zenos
So when you're hurt, I'm gonna heal you.
[11:34] Zenos
I am an underground healer, after all.
[11:37] Zophia
That explains it.
[11:39] Zophia
Well, I sure feel like a fool after all that.
[11:43] Zophia
I guess you've been working this
entire time, haven't you, Doc?
[11:48] Lynga
But I've never heard of a healer who
could heal so many people instantly
[11:52] Lynga
over such a long time!
[11:53] Loewe
He told us to have at it, but I never
thought he could heal us all...
[11:58] Loewe
But at this rate, the fighting will never end.
[12:00] Zenos
Exactly. There'll be no end to it.
[12:03] Zenos
"He hit me, so I'll get revenge."
[12:06] Zenos
"He kicked me, so I'll get revenge."
[12:09] Zenos
It never ends.
[12:11] Zenos
So do you want to keep going?
[12:13] Zenos
Because if you do, I'm going to be right here.
[12:15] Zenos
And rest assured, I will be
getting paid for all this.
[12:23] Zophia
He's got a point.
[12:24] Zophia
There'll be no end to this.
[12:26] Zophia
What are we even doing?
[12:29] Lynga
It seems silly now.
[12:31] Lynga
All we're doing is making ourselves tired.
[12:34] Loewe
I honestly feel satisfied
after all that fighting.
[12:41] Zophia
It is what it is.
[12:42] Zophia
And given what Doc just said,
we might as well wrap this up for today.
[12:45] Lynga
No objections from the werewolves!
[12:47] Loewe
"Forgiveness is strength."
[12:49] Loewe
An old orcish proverb.
[12:51] Zophia
Sounds like we've only got one
reason to fight going forward.
[12:55] Lynga
Lynga has the advantage with that one!
[12:57] Loewe
And that's the one battle I won't yield on.
[13:00] Zenos
What do you think they're talking about?
[13:04] Lily
You really are popular, Zenos...
[13:07] Lily
Why'd you do this, though?
[13:11] Zenos
There's something my mentor told me once.
[13:14] Zenos
"A healer is third-rate if
they just heal injuries,
[13:16] Zenos
second-rate if they can
wholly heal a person,
[13:18] Zenos
and first-rate if they can
make the world a better place."
[13:21] Lily
What was your mentor like?
[13:24] Zenos
A weirdo. But really impressive.
[13:28] Zenos
Which is why, third-rate as I might be,
[13:30] Zenos
I want to try to improve things in the slums.
[13:34] Lily
That's so cool, Zenos!
[13:36] Zenos
Or at least, that's what I'll say.
[13:38] Lily
It's just talk?
[13:40] Zenos
Think about it. They're all regular
patients at our run-down clinic.
[13:44] Zenos
We can't risk losing them over this nonsense.
[13:48] Lily
You liar.
[13:49] Lily
He knows that if everyone gets along,
[13:52] Lily
there'll be fewer injuries,
and fewer patients.
[13:59] Lily
Hey, Zenos.
[14:00] Zenos
What's up?
[14:02] Lily
I like you, Zenos.
[14:05] Zenos
I like you, too, Lily.
[14:09] Lily
That's not what I mean when I say, "I like you"!
[14:11] Zenos
Then what exactly do you mean?
[14:13] Lily
N-Never mind!
[14:19] Zenos
Well, time to get paid and go home.
[14:22] Lily
You're still gonna charge them?
[14:24] Zenos
Of course. Do you know how much work
it is to heal this many people?
[14:29] Zenos
That means I need to collect my fee.
[14:32] Lily
You think Carmilla will be sad nobody died?
[14:35] Zenos
Maybe. It'd serve her right, though.
[14:39] Lily
I think... she'll actually be happy, though.
[14:50] Krishna
You called for me, Division Commander?
[14:53] Commander
I was waiting, Vice Commander Krishna.
[14:56] Krishna
I wasn't expecting the summons.
Has something happened?
[14:58] Krishna
Yes. I've heard some
concerning rumors lately.
[15:03] Krishna
What rumors?
[15:04] Commander
Apparently, the turf war between the
demihumans of the slums has calmed down.
[15:09] Krishna
But the lizardmen, werewolves, and orcs have
been feuding over territory for years now.
[15:17] Krishna
I have a hard time believing
that it'd suddenly cool off.
[15:22] Commander
But on the off-chance that it
might be true, we can't ignore it.
[15:26] Commander
The Kingdom of Herzeth has prospered
[15:29] Commander
under its strict hierarchical system,
with the royals at the top.
[15:33] Commander
The citizens take out their
frustrations on the poor.
[15:35] Commander
And the poor take out their frustrations by
[15:37] Commander
squabbling among themselves,
specifically among different races.
[15:40] Commander
That's how we maintain equilibrium.
[15:42] Commander
But suppose the poor
presented a united front...
[15:47] Krishna
You believe they'd pose a threat to
the citizens, the aristocracy...
[15:50] Krishna
maybe even the ruling class?
[15:52] Commander
Exactly.
[15:53] Commander
The king is like the sun to our people,
[15:55] Commander
and it is the duty of the royal order of knights
to defend the capital where our ruler dwells.
[15:59] Krishna
But Commander, the three demihuman
races have been feuding for so long.
[16:05] Krishna
There's no way such deep-seated
grudges could be forgiven so easily.
[16:08] Commander
The rumors say that a third
party mediated between them.
[16:12] Krishna
That seems even more implausible.
[16:15] Krishna
Zophia the Tornado, Lynga the
Tyrant, and Loewe the Mighty...
[16:19] Krishna
They're dangerous, major
figures in the underworld.
[16:22] Krishna
I can't imagine an individual
capable of corralling them.
[16:26] Commander
I feel the same way.
[16:28] Commander
But we can't ignore even the possibility
that the rumors might be true.
[16:33] Krishna
And that's why you called for me?
[16:36] Commander
This is an issue that could
threaten the state of our nation.
[16:40] Commander
I can't leave that to the rank and file.
[16:42] Commander
I want you, my vice commander, to handle this.
[16:45] Krishna
I'll see to it, sir.
[16:47] Commander
I'm counting on you, Iron Rose.
[16:50] Krishna
If such an individual does exist,
I will apprehend him.
[16:58] Lily
Zenos—
[16:58] Lynga
Sir Zenos! Is it a cold?
[17:00] Lynga
Lynga can warm you up with her tail!
[17:02] Loewe
That should be my job.
[17:05] Loewe
My muscles are warmer than you'd think,
plus there's my bosom to consider.
[17:09] Lily
I... don't have a tail.
[17:14] Lily
Or muscles...
[17:16] Lily
Or... bosom.
[17:20] Lily
I'm gonna put some tea on!
[17:22] Zenos
You're all way too protective!
[17:24] Zenos
It was just a sneeze.
[17:26] Zenos
I'm trying to heal someone, so quiet down.
[17:31] Zophia
Your healing will never
cease to amaze me, Doc.
[17:35] Lily
Come to think of it, you haven't needed
healing in a while, huh, Zophia?
[17:39] Zophia
Oh, come on, Lily!
[17:41] Zophia
That makes it sounds like I'm always
here when I'm not a patient!
[17:45] Zenos
That is literally the case.
[17:47] Zophia
Just so you know, I got this
injury while I was working.
[17:52] Zenos
Oh, right. You're a thief, aren't you?
[17:56] Zophia
I'm pretty selective about
my targets, but yeah...
[17:58] Zophia
And the royal order of knights
has their eye on us now.
[18:01] Zophia
Had a bit of a scrap with them
yesterday, which is how I got hurt.
[18:05] Zenos
Come to think of it, you had
both injured your arms before.
[18:09] Zenos
Did the royal knights do that?
[18:11] Zophia
Yeah, they did.
[18:13] Zophia
One of 'em got me when we were
sneaking into an aristocrat's manor.
[18:16] Zonde
They got my arm, too, Sis.
[18:18] Zonde
The crazy woman blasted me with
that flame magic gun out of nowhere.
[18:22] Zenos
A crazy woman?
[18:22] Zophia
I think she's their vice commander?
[18:25] Zophia
Some crazy chick they call the Iron Rose.
[18:29] Zophia
She unleashes real hell, all with
a blank expression on her face.
[18:32] Zenos
The Iron Rose...
[18:36] Carmilla
Imagine the trouble that getting
her attention would cause,
[18:39] Carmilla
especially with the surplus of
dangerous women we already have.
[18:43] Lily
I'm... the normal one, right?
[18:47] Zenos
I doubt I have to worry.
[18:49] Zenos
Why would the high and mighty royal knights
care about some nobody underground healer?
[18:55] Carmilla
My wraith's instinct is
usually pretty accurate...
[18:58] Zenos
No point in worrying about it.
[19:00] Zenos
Lily, are you ready for lunch?
[19:03] Lily
Yeah!
[19:04] Lily
What do you want to eat, Zenos?
[19:06] Zophia
I'd be down for a salad!
[19:08] Lynga
Lynga wants fish!
[19:10] Loewe
Are the two of you insane?
[19:11] Loewe
Clearly, we're going to be having meat.
[19:15] Zenos
For the record, I wasn't asking you three.
[19:17] Zenos
And are you serious about eating here?
[19:35] Carmilla
Well, I suppose I'll go upstairs and rest.
[19:39] Carmilla
But keep in mind that you're likely
the only one in all of the royal capital
[19:44] Carmilla
capable of getting the slum's leaders in line.
[19:47] Zenos
I feel like some kind of
dangerous animal wrangler.
[19:50] Zenos
I really hope we don't end up
with any more troublesome guests.
[19:53] Carmilla
"And with those words, Zenos the underground
healer had sealed his own fate."
[19:58] Zenos
Don't just drop ominous lines
like that before floating off!
[20:11] Krishna
Am I really in the slums?
[20:16] Krishna
You there. Can I ask you something?
[20:18] Lizardman A
Sure. What's up?
[20:20] Krishna
I haven't been in the slums in a while,
[20:24] Krishna
and things seem to have changed quite a bit.
[20:26] Krishna
You're getting along awfully well
with the werewolves and orcs.
[20:30] Lizardman A
Well, it turns out they're not
so bad once you get to know 'em.
[20:34] Krishna
But there was so much bad
blood before. What happened?
[20:38] Lizardman A
Well, y'know...
[20:40] Lizardman A
Look, I don't know who you are,
[20:43] Lizardman A
so I can't really tell you about it.
[20:45] Lizardman A
He's trying to keep a low profile, after all.
[20:48] Krishna
A low profile?
[20:49] Lizardman A
See ya.
[20:51] Krishna
Hold it. You're going to talk.
[20:54] Krishna
And no nonsense. Only answer
the questions I ask you.
[20:57] Krishna
Who's the mediator?
[20:59] Lizardman A
I'm not telling you.
[21:01] Lizardman A
We all owe him a lot.
[21:04] Lizardman A
You can shoot me, but—
[21:05] Krishna
This mediator has earned
quite a bit of loyalty, then.
[21:08] Krishna
So, who is he?
[21:08] Zonde
Talk about amazing.
[21:11] Zophia
Yeah, seriously.
[21:11] Lizardman A
Boss!
[21:14] Krishna
Starting trouble in enemy
territory would be a bad idea.
[21:17] Krishna
Their arms should've been injured
beyond any hope of healing,
[21:21] Krishna
but from that glimpse I got,
they've fully recovered.
[21:26] Krishna
How is that possible?
[21:29] Krishna
And now, what do I do next?
[21:32] Krishna
There are too many things I don't know.
[21:35] Krishna
Like where I am.
[21:39] Zenos
I'm getting chills for some reason.
[21:42] Krishna
Pardon me. I could use some directions.
[21:45] Krishna
I was in the slums, but before I knew it,
I was in an abandoned part of the city.
[21:50] Zenos
Yeah? That's rough.
[21:52] Krishna
Yes, I'm afraid a bad sense of
direction is my only real fault.
[21:56] Zenos
Is that right?
[21:58] Krishna
I noticed someone was in this house,
so I decided to ask for help.
[22:01] Krishna
Can you show me how to get back into town?
[22:04] Zenos
Okay, in that case—
[22:05] Lily
Zenos, do we have a patient?
[22:07] Zenos
No, just someone who got lost.
[22:12] Krishna
It seems I owe you thanks,
albeit coincidentally.
[22:17] Lily
The tea! Wait, no, Zenos!
[22:20] Lily
Zenos!

[00:02] Krishna
I never would've expected to run into
another target in a place like this.
[00:06] Lily
Zenos! Zenos?!
[00:10] Krishna
While I'm working on a
different, bigger case,
[00:13] Krishna
I've also been investigating a string
of children who've been kidnapped.
[00:17] Lily
Zenos didn't...
[00:19] Krishna
You're an elf child.
[00:21] Krishna
But he is a human.
[00:23] Krishna
That means you're not family.
[00:25] Krishna
So I've finally found him.
[00:27] Krishna
Clever trick, setting up shop in a desolate
place like this where no one is around.
[00:31] Lily
Y-You've got it all wrong!
[00:32] Lily
Zenos took me in!
[00:34] Krishna
Humanoid trafficking is illegal unless
conducted through proper channels.
[00:37] Lily
That's not what I meant!
[00:39] Lily
Zenos saved me!
[00:42] Krishna
What? Did I jump to conclusions?
[00:44] Lily
You really did!
[00:46] Krishna
Forgive me, then. That was a
round for apprehending suspects.
[00:50] Krishna
It shouldn't be lethal, but he
won't be waking up for a while.
[00:53] Krishna
I'm a perfectionist with my work,
[00:55] Krishna
but my short temper is my only real fault.
[00:58] Zenos
I thought you said your only real fault
was having a bad sense of direction?
[01:03] Krishna
What in the world?
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[02:38] Krishna
What in the world?
[02:41] Krishna
My sincere apologies.
[02:42] Krishna
I seem to have jumped to conclusions.
[02:45] Krishna
I'm relieved you're all right, but... how?
[02:47] Zenos
I just used some defensive magic.
[02:49] Krishna
You must be kidding.
[02:50] Krishna
Defensive magic isn't capable
of stopping my magic guns.
[02:54] Zenos
I mean, as far as I know,
it was ordinary defensive magic.
[02:57] Krishna
Are you being serious?
[03:04] Krishna
You're definitely unhurt.
[03:06] Krishna
How is this possible?
[03:08] Krishna
So many things today have
been utterly inexplicable...
[03:10] Zenos
Getting shot by someone I've never met
before falls in that category for me.
[03:16] Krishna
Are you some sort of
renowned grand sorcerer?
[03:18] Krishna
Devoting your heart and soul to
defensive magic from an early age,
[03:22] Krishna
mastering your field of study,
earning you the name...
[03:24] Krishna
"He Who Worked Hard at Defensive Magic."
[03:26] Zenos
First, wrong. Second, your
naming sense is terrible.
[03:29] Krishna
My lack of naming talent is my only fault.
[03:33] Zenos
That's another one, isn't it?
[03:34] Krishna
That's the only explanation
that makes sense, though.
[03:37] Krishna
Though others may not be able to tell,
[03:39] Krishna
there's no deceiving the eyes of Vice Commander
Krishna of the Royal Order of Knights.
[03:44] Lily/Zenos
Vice Commander... of the
Royal Order of Knights?
[03:47] Krishna
Indeed. I believe you are Mr. Zenos, yes?
[03:50] Krishna
I'd appreciate it if you would
cooperate with my investigation.
[03:55] Zenos
I put up a signal for everyone to stay
away, given the nature of the situation,
[03:59] Zenos
so I don't think they'll
waltz in here, but...
[04:02] Krishna
I've actually come to the
slums on a secret mission.
[04:06] Zenos
Is that the kind of thing
you should be sharing?
[04:09] Krishna
My secret mission is to locate a certain
individual and take them into custody.
[04:13] Zenos
You're just laying it all out there, huh?
[04:15] Krishna
I doubt I can gain your cooperation
without sharing some degree of specifics.
[04:19] Zenos
I never said anything about cooperating...
[04:22] Krishna
It's the duty of every citizen to
cooperate with the Order of Knights!
[04:25] Zenos
I guess she doesn't listen, either.
[04:28] Zenos
So, who are you looking for?
[04:31] Krishna
The mediator.
[04:33] Krishna
Whoever ended the feud between
the factions in the slums.
[04:37] Krishna
What's wrong?
[04:38] Zenos
Oh, uh, it's nothing.
[04:41] Zenos
You little...
[04:43] Krishna
As a defender of order,
[04:44] Krishna
I can't ignore the appearance of
someone who wields that kind of power.
[04:49] Krishna
But I was unable to get anything out of the
demihumans, even after shaking them down.
[04:53] Krishna
Whoever this person is, they're
well-versed in how to control people...
[04:56] Krishna
Such deeds no doubt mark him
as a servant of the devil!
[04:59] Zenos
A servant of the devil?
[05:01] Zenos
The guy might just want
to avoid the spotlight.
[05:05] Zenos
Y'know, maybe he doesn't want attention?
[05:07] Zenos
Maybe leaving him be and not looking
too hard for him would be best.
[05:10] Krishna
Do you know the mediator?!
[05:12] Zenos
Nah, that's just my instinct talking!
[05:18] Krishna
Someone with the power to unify
the rival factions in the slums
[05:21] Krishna
could pose a threat to the
nation itself in time.
[05:26] Lily
I don't think they're thinking
of anything that big.
[05:31] Lily
They might be kind of a stickler
about money, but deep down,
[05:34] Lily
I bet they just don't like
seeing people get hurt.
[05:39] Zenos
Lily...
[05:41] Krishna
Do you know who the mediator is, elf girl?
[05:43] Lily
N-N-Nope! I don't know a thing!
[05:49] Krishna
No matter.
[05:51] Krishna
I anticipated having trouble
even finding his trail.
[05:54] Zenos
Maybe it's time for you to go.
I'll show you the way back to town.
[05:58] Krishna
You seem to want me gone.
[06:00] Zenos
W-Well, it's just... you've got
an important mission, right?
[06:04] Krishna
You have a point.
[06:06] Krishna
I should be on my way.
[06:13] Krishna
Why is there a bed down here?
[06:16] Zenos
It's, uh, an extra bed. I brought
it out here to throw it away.
[06:20] Krishna
In that case... I'd appreciate
you letting me use it.
[06:26] Krishna
I've actually had trouble
finding a base of operations.
[06:28] Krishna
Here, I'll be close to the slums
without attracting attention.
[06:31] Krishna
It's ideal for my investigation.
[06:33] Krishna
Of course, I will pay for my stay.
[06:35] Krishna
I need to find the root of this new evil,
the mediator, and capture him myself.
[06:40] Zenos
From servant of the devil
to the root of evil...
[06:43] Carmilla
"And so, as had become
so common at this point,
[06:46] Carmilla
the clinic welcomed a new, dangerous woman."
[06:52] Lily
It's nothing fancy, but...
[06:53] Krishna
I appreciate it.
[06:56] Krishna
Hot!
[06:58] Krishna
Pardon me.
[06:59] Krishna
My sensitivity to hot foods
and drinks is my one fault.
[07:03] Zenos
You have a lot of faults, huh?
[07:04] Krishna
What are you saying?
I only have one fault.
[07:08] Zenos
I see...
[07:11] Zenos
What's wrong, Lily?
[07:13] Lily
Zenos, lap.
[07:20] Lily
Zenos, my usual.
[07:22] Zenos
Your usual?
[07:23] Lily
My! Usual!
[07:35] Carmilla
It's jealousy.
[07:36] Zenos
Don't scare me like that!
[07:37] Krishna
Something wrong?
[07:39] Zenos
Uh, n-no, nothing.
[07:41] Krishna
I see.
[07:42] Carmilla
I've gone invisible and
am whispering in your ear.
[07:46] Zenos
Well, I wish you wouldn't.
It's bad for my heart.
[07:48] Zenos
So, why would Lily be jealous?
[07:51] Carmilla
She's trying to demonstrate her advantage
to this random new challenger!
[07:54] Carmilla
"I'm much closer to Zenos than you are!"
[07:59] Carmilla
She has no intention of accepting
this oddly haughty woman
[08:02] Carmilla
who blasted you at random with a magic gun!
[08:04] Carmilla
To say nothing of the contrast between
the dour attitude and the sensitive tongue!
[08:09] Carmilla
But what can she do? What's her next move?
[08:12] Carmilla
The bell is rung for this
battle between women!
[08:14] Zenos
Pipe down.
[08:16] Lily
Zenos, your tea's still hot,
[08:19] Lily
so I'll blow on it for you.
[08:21] Lily
Zenos, your hair's sticking up.
[08:23] Lily
I'll fix it for you.
[08:26] Lily
Zenos, here's an apple.
[08:27] Lily
I'll feed it to you!
[08:34] Lily
I'll just have to use the secret
weapon Carmilla taught me!
[08:40] Lily
Zenos... T-Tonight,
[08:43] Lily
I'm not going to let you sleep...
[08:49] Krishna
She's sound asleep.
[08:51] Zenos
Yeah.
[08:54] Lily
I win...
[08:59] Zenos
What is it?
[09:00] Krishna
You said that elf girl had
been caught by slave traders.
[09:04] Krishna
Do you know who they are?
[09:06] Zenos
No, I don't.
[09:08] Krishna
I see.
[09:09] Krishna
It seems like there's a hotbed for
child trafficking around here.
[09:13] Zenos
And that's why you shot me?
[09:16] Krishna
I'm sorry about that.
[09:18] Krishna
Having a short temper is my one fault.
[09:21] Zenos
It really does sound like you have a
lot of faults. Not that it matters.
[09:25] Krishna
I am meant to be a perfect member of the
royal guard, as well as a hero to the people.
[09:29] Krishna
I am allowed to have, at most, one fault.
[09:33] Krishna
I have a question.
[09:35] Krishna
You're a master mage who has
perfected defense magic, yes?
[09:38] Zenos
Not at all.
[09:40] Krishna
If someone was able to master healing
magic the way you've mastered defense,
[09:44] Krishna
would they be able to
fully regenerate an arm?
[09:48] Zenos
Uh, do other healers—
[09:48] Krishna
No, it can't be possible.
[09:50] Krishna
Not for anyone other than a Saint or a
handful of the highest-level top-secret healers.
[09:55] Zenos
What's it matter?
[09:56] Krishna
In a fight with Zophia the Tornado,
[09:59] Krishna
I did a fair amount of damage to her arm.
[10:02] Krishna
Yet when I saw her and
her minion in the slums,
[10:04] Krishna
their arms were completely back to normal.
[10:06] Krishna
If there's someone who can
heal those kinds of wounds,
[10:10] Krishna
their words might have real gravity.
[10:14] Krishna
Well, I can begin my investigation
in earnest tomorrow.
[10:18] Krishna
I will arrest this agitator of the slums,
and the original evil, the mediator.
[10:24] Zenos
The original evil?
These allegations keep leveling up...
[10:28] Zenos
What makes you feel so
threatened by the slums, anyway?
[10:31] Krishna
It's not much of a story.
[10:34] Krishna
My mother was killed by
someone who lived there.
[10:39] Krishna
She was a profoundly kind woman.
[10:42] Krishna
She visited the slums
daily to feed the hungry.
[10:48] Krishna
And one day, she returned as a corpse.
[10:52] Krishna
I was told it was a crime done
to steal her wedding ring.
[10:56] Krishna
She had saved so many from hunger,
[11:00] Krishna
but no one was there to save her.
[11:03] Krishna
That is why I decided that I would become
[11:05] Krishna
an invincible hero
capable of delivering justice
[11:09] Krishna
to the criminals of the slums,
[11:11] Krishna
so what happened to her would
never happen to anyone else.
[11:13] Krishna
I achieved distinction early on
[11:15] Krishna
and became the youngest vice commander
in the history of the Royal Knights.
[11:19] Krishna
My unbendable will regarding my duties
eventually earned me the nickname "Iron Rose."
[11:26] Krishna
Some people seem to use it to suggest
I'm unreasonable and don't listen,
[11:30] Krishna
but I know the other thing
attributed to that name.
[11:35] Krishna
My face is like an iron
mask, wouldn't you say?
[11:40] Krishna
Ever since that day,
I've had trouble smiling.
[11:50] Krishna
I'll be back tonight, then.
[11:54] Carmilla
Don't pay it any mind, Zenos.
[11:56] Carmilla
Her story isn't that unusual.
[11:58] Carmilla
When you live 300 years,
[12:00] Carmilla
you witness all the ways a
person's life can turn out.
[12:04] Zenos
You came down just to say that?
[12:07] Zenos
I appreciate it, Carmilla.
[12:10] Carmilla
I'm just not fond of all
this sentimental morbidity!
[12:13] Carmilla
What about the flag?
[12:15] Zenos
Well, I guess I'll take it down for now.
[12:19] Zenos
Try to be more careful, okay?
[12:21] Zophia
Sorry, Doc.
[12:23] Zophia
By the way, one of my boys mentioned
that the knight I told you about—
[12:26] Krishna
Mr. Zenos, I'm sorry, but I got lost and...
[12:31] Zophia
Iron Rose! What are you doing here?!
[12:31] Zophia
Zophia the Tornado, what are you doing here?!
[12:35] Zenos
I-It's not what you think!
[12:37] Carmilla
You sound like a husband caught cheating.
[12:39] Lily
This lady says... sh-she got lost, too!
[12:43] Krishna
She got lost and ended up here?
[12:45] Krishna
She must be quite directionless.
[12:46] Zenos
Yeah, you are.
[12:48] Zophia
You heard the girl. There a problem?
[12:49] Zophia
I just got lost and was
asking for directions.
[12:53] Krishna
What happened to your
arm, Zophia the Tornado?
[12:57] Krishna
I believe that it was the
mediator who healed it.
[13:01] Krishna
The person gathering up
the criminal elements
[13:03] Krishna
of the slums to threaten
its innocent residents.
[13:07] Zophia
Threaten the residents of the slums?
[13:10] Zophia
I'm a two-bit rogue, so I probably
don't have a leg to stand on here,
[13:13] Zophia
but you can find crooks
on all rungs of society.
[13:16] Krishna
What are you getting at?
[13:17] Zophia
I hear the Royal Knights are investigating
the child trafficking ring,
[13:22] Zophia
but did you know that their
boss was an aristocrat?
[13:25] Krishna
The child trafficking ring
is centered in the slums.
[13:28] Zophia
That's just where the rank and file
operate to throw off the scent.
[13:31] Krishna
I find that hard to believe.
[13:33] Zophia
I bet.
[13:34] Zophia
It's not like you'd ever
listen to us, anyway.
[13:37] Krishna
Who do you claim it is, then?
[13:39] Zophia
Calendor.
[13:41] Krishna
Even more ridiculous.
[13:43] Krishna
He's a philanthropist who's
passionate about educating orphans.
[13:46] Zophia
The way you only look at the surface
is what makes you easy to trick.
[13:50] Zophia
Not the mediator, though.
[13:52] Zophia
They never judged any of
us because of our status
[13:55] Zophia
or the way we look.
[13:56] Zophia
All they ever did was save
the people who needed it.
[14:00] Zophia
Hell, as much as I hate to admit it,
[14:03] Zophia
he'd probably save your life,
too, if you were hurt.
[14:05] Zophia
Just not for free.
[14:07] Zophia
Nothing like you, who's convinced
that all evil comes from the slums.
[14:11] Zophia
Your idea of justice is a joke.
[14:14] Krishna
How dare you?
[14:18] Krishna
Mr. Zenos, stand aside.
[14:20] Zenos
Sorry, but that's not happening.
[14:22] Zenos
Zophia is one of my patients.
[14:24] Krishna
Patients?
[14:26] Krishna
I'm sorry for not telling
you sooner, Krishna.
[14:29] Krishna
I'm the mediator.
[14:30] Krishna
You're the mediator?
[14:33] Zenos
Yeah.
[14:34] Krishna
Inconceivable. The mediator
is a master of healing magic.
[14:38] Krishna
But your specialty is defensive magic.
[14:41] Krishna
It'd be impossible to wield two
schools of magic at such a high level.
[14:44] Zenos
I'm not exactly a master, and both
defense and healing are about
[14:47] Zenos
amplifying the body's natural functions,
so they're basically the same.
[14:51] Krishna
I've never heard that kind of
logic in any of my magic lessons.
[14:55] Krishna
But one thing that's clear is that you've
sided with the demihumans and the mediator.
[15:02] Krishna
I'll find a different place to work from.
[15:04] Zenos
Krishna...
[15:06] Krishna
The people need a perfect hero.
[15:09] Krishna
And I am no joke.
[15:16] Lily
She's headed in the opposite
direction from the slums...
[15:20] Zenos
She could get lost on a one-way street.
[15:24] Zenos
Wait, is she...
[15:29] Calendor
A sudden visit from the Vice Commander of the
Royal Order of the Knights is quite a surprise.
[15:35] Krishna
Lord Calendor, are you aware that there have
been thieves operating in this area as of late?
[15:40] Calendor
I did hear something about
a band of lizardman thieves.
[15:44] Krishna
Yes. It is our intention to
increase local security.
[15:48] Krishna
We'd appreciate it if you and your
fellow nobles would be more careful.
[15:55] Krishna
As part of that, I'd like to do a
security assessment of your manor.
[15:59] Calendor
A splendid idea!
[16:02] Calendor
That said, if you had told me beforehand,
I could've been better prepared.
[16:06] Krishna
Our intent is to get the best
grasp of the usual level of security.
[16:09] Krishna
I beg your pardon, but a surprise
inspection would be more effective.
[16:14] Calendor
Very well, then!
[16:17] Krishna
Zophia the Tornado claimed Lord
Calendor was the ringleader,
[16:21] Krishna
but I'm wasting my time here.
[16:24] Calendor
What do you say, Lady Krishna?
[16:26] Krishna
Your security is quite thorough.
[16:28] Krishna
If I had to point anything
out, it'd be the distri—
[16:32] Calendor
Is something wrong?
[16:34] Krishna
No, not a thing.
[16:36] Krishna
Would it be all right if I used your
washroom before I take my leave?
[16:39] Calendor
By all means.
[16:41] Krishna
Lord Calendor sits somewhere in the
upper-mid echelon of the aristocracy.
[16:45] Krishna
GIven that, it's odd how much security he has.
[16:47] Krishna
And then there's the distribution of it.
[16:49] Krishna
The rear entrance seems to have
a lot more guards than the front.
[16:54] Krishna
It couldn't be...
[17:08] Krishna
Oh, no.
[17:14] Girl
Who's there? S-Someone scary?
[17:16] Krishna
It's all right. I'm not here to hurt you.
[17:20] Girl
Who are you?
[17:22] Krishna
Me? I'm a hero, here to save you.
[17:31] Calendor
The magic guns you royal knights
use are quite powerful!
[17:36] Calendor
This will be perfect for
threatening the children, too.
[17:42] Calendor
I can't say I appreciate a mere knight like
you sniffing about the business of a noble.
[17:47] Calendor
Your job is to stay quiet
and keep the rabble in line!
[17:53] Calendor
The flawless Iron Rose,
reduced to a wounded heap!
[17:57] Krishna
I'm sorry, children.
[18:01] Krishna
Mother...
[18:02] Krishna
I... wasn't able to be a real hero.
[18:07] Zophia
Aw, damn, she's still alive?
[18:09] Zophia
We should've taken a bit longer to get here.
[18:12] Krishna
Zophia the Tornado?
[18:15] Krishna
W-Why?
[18:16] Zenos
This was a crazy move.
[18:18] Zenos
You don't disappoint, and that's
not meant as a compliment.
[18:22] Zenos
I went out of my way for this house call.
[18:24] Zenos
It's going to cost a lot, so brace yourself.
[18:27] Calendor
Who are you people?!
[18:29] Zenos
Don't worry about me.
[18:30] Zenos
I'm just an unremarkable healer.
[18:31] Zophia
And I just showed him the way.
[18:34] Calendor
E-Enough comedy!
[18:35] Calendor
You're a lizardman, right?
[18:38] Calendor
No one will complain if I kill
some thief from the slums.
[18:42] Calendor
Now, stand down!
[18:51] Calendor
Fool!
[18:52] Zenos
That actually kinda hurt.
[18:54] Calendor
What?!
[18:56] Calendor
You... Wh-Why?! Why isn't it working?!
[19:00] Calendor
Why?! Why?! Why?!
[19:11] Calendor
What is this? What in the world are you?!
[19:17] Calendor
A low-born dog like you dares to
point that gun at an aristocrat?!
[19:21] Zenos
I hear you shouldn't shoot at people
unless you're prepared to be shot.
[19:24] Calendor
W-Wait! I-I'll do whatever you
want! Just lower the gun!
[19:29] Zenos
Well, to be honest, we've just met,
[19:32] Zenos
and it's not like I have some
old grudge against you.
[19:35] Zenos
The only thing I have against you is that
you were blasting at me a second ago.
[19:38] Calendor
F-Forgive me!
[19:41] Calendor
And that's an apology from someone of
my standing! Now, please, show mercy.
[19:45] Zenos
Nope.
[19:46] Calendor
Wh-Why?!
[19:48] Calendor
I-I know! I just need to apologize
to the woman, too, right?
[19:53] Calendor
I was wrong.
[19:55] Calendor
I got carried away when I fired
on you. Please, forgive me.
[20:01] Zenos
That was a pretty poor
excuse for an apology,
[20:03] Zenos
but I see someone else that you
really ought to be apologizing to.
[20:07] Calendor
A-And who would that be?!
[20:10] Zenos
Since you can't seem to figure
it out, you get punished.
[20:13] Zenos
What did you think you were
doing with my future patients?!
[20:21] Krishna
Did you... kill him?
[20:24] Zenos
The limiter was on, so he shouldn't be dead.
[20:26] Zenos
It's not my duty to judge him anyway, right?
[20:30] Krishna
It's... too late for me...
[20:34] Krishna
Report what's happened...
to the Royal Knights...
[20:36] Zenos
Nah, that sounds like a lot of work.
[20:39] Zenos
I'll let you take care of it.
[20:41] Zenos
Your left arm, along with a chunk of
your torso, and the organs to match.
[20:46] Zenos
Such a defeated look after
a little hit like this?
[20:49] Zenos
So much for the Iron Rose.
[20:52] Zenos
Don't be shocked when
you get my invoice, okay?
[20:54] Krishna
Mr. Zenos... Just who are you?
[20:58] Zenos
Quiet. I'm trying to concentrate.
[21:01] Krishna
You're a hero...
[21:02] Zenos
Nothing that extravagant.
[21:04] Zenos
I'm just an underground healer
working out of a run-down clinic.
[21:10] Krishna
Unbelievable.
[21:11] Krishna
This kind of incredible healing...
[21:14] Krishna
You really must be the mediator, Mr. Zenos.
[21:16] Zenos
I literally told you that.
[21:18] Krishna
I was no hero at all.
[21:21] Krishna
I know now that a perfect
hero is someone like you.
[21:25] Zenos
There's no such thing as
a perfect hero, anyway.
[21:28] Zenos
People who fight for the sake of something
are gonna get hurt, one way or another.
[21:32] Zenos
That's why they need healers like me.
[21:34] Zenos
Or so I was taught, anyway.
[21:37] Zenos
I think, to them, you're the hero here.
[21:40] Krishna
Them?
[21:42] Girl
Wh-What happened?
Is the hero lady still there?
[21:47] Zenos
You were the first one to take action.
[21:49] Zenos
That makes you the hero in this case.
[21:51] Krishna
I'm... I...
[21:56] Krishna
K-Kids! It's all right! I'm still okay!
I'll get you out of there soon!
[22:02] Kids
Thank you, hero!
[22:05] Krishna
All this time, I thought my
mother was a pitiable victim.
[22:08] Krishna
But... her eyes were always shining.
[22:12] Krishna
She would feed the children of the slums
with food that she made herself.
[22:16] Zenos
Yeah. Just like you're a hero to these kids,
[22:20] Zenos
I bet she was someone's hero, too.
[22:23] Krishna
My mother was... awkward, panicky,
short-tempered, forgetful,
[22:30] Krishna
and full of faults, really...
[22:33] Krishna
But still... in spite of it all,
I know for a fact that she was my hero.
[22:48] Zophia
Doc, the royal knights are gonna
catch on to the fuss any time now.
[22:52] Zenos
Yeah. It's time for us to
slink back into the shadows.
[22:55] Krishna
Mr. Zenos!
[23:00] Krishna
Mr. Zenos, why did you save me?
[23:04] Zenos
Unpaid bills.
[23:07] Zenos
You said you were gonna pay for
using the clinic's bed, remember?
[23:10] Zenos
If you got yourself killed,
I wouldn't be able to collect.
[23:13] Zenos
I'm adding the fee for healing you to the
cost. Make sure you pay it all back at once.
[23:17] Krishna
The money I owed you...
[23:28] Zenos
Looks like you can smile after all.
[23:31] Krishna
I see. I'm smiling now, huh?
[23:36] Zenos
Still looks pretty awkward, though.
[23:38] Zophia
Hell, I think it makes
you look even creepier.
[23:42] Krishna
Wh-What do you want?
[23:43] Krishna
It's been a long time since I've smiled.
[23:46] Krishna
Not being good at it is my only...
[23:49] Krishna
No...
[23:51] Krishna
Just one of my many faults!

Zenos, I'm looking forward
to buying some new tea!
[00:06] Zenos
Yeah? Well, I'm looking
forward to you making it.
[00:32] (Flashback) Aston
Hey. What are you doing?
[00:35] (Flashback) Zenos
Nothing.
[00:37] (Flashback) Aston
Well, if you're not doing anything,
how about adventuring with us?
[00:42] (Flashback) Aston
It's not like you've got
anywhere else to be, right?
[00:45] (Flashback) Zenos
I heard people from the slums
couldn't become adventurers.
[00:48] (Flashback) Aston
Normally, yeah.
[00:50] (Flashback) Aston
But I think that if you're
motivated and have the skills,
[00:53] (Flashback) Aston
then your status doesn't matter.
[00:55] (Flashback) Aston
Is there anything you can do?
[00:58] (Flashback) Zenos
I know a bit of healing magic.
[01:01] (Flashback) Aston
Healing magic?
[01:04] (Flashback) Aston
Poor folks can't afford
that kind of education.
[01:06] (Flashback) Aston
There's no way.
[01:08] (Flashback) Aston
Well, you can join our party.
[01:11] (Flashback) Aston
I don't expect you to contribute much.
[01:14] (Flashback) Aston
I just really want a slave.
[01:38] Aston
These kinds of creatures are nothing to me.
[01:42] Aston
But, man...
[01:44] Aston
He really is useless. Like lugging

[03:29] Aston
Why's this damn place so far out of the way?
[03:32] Aston
I know this is our chance to
earn points with one of
[03:35] Aston
the seven great nobles,
but it feels like a waste of energy.
[03:39] Guile
I'm still feeling the wine from last night...
[03:41] Yuma
The sooner we wrap this up, the
sooner we can get back to drinking.
[03:45] Andres
Sounds good.
[03:46] Andres
Did you see the way the bar maid's eyes lit up
when we said we were the Golden Phoenix?
[03:51] Aston
Looks like slaying multiple magic beasts
without taking so much as a scratch
[03:55] Aston
has made us big news,
even all the way out in the sticks.
[04:00] Aston
There they are.
[04:07] Aston
Let's kill these things and get
their hides to Lord Fennel!
[04:13] Aston
Guile, just to be safe,
whip up some defensive magic!
[04:16] Guile
You got it!
[04:18] Guile
Come forth, force!
[04:19] Guile
Become an unyielding shield to repel all that
would do harm, as the spirit of lofty aspiration!
[04:25] Guile
Encase!
[04:29] Aston
Your pitiful attacks aren't gonna...
[04:33] Aston
It burns!
[04:35] Aston
What the hell?!
[04:39] Aston
Andres, hurry up with the attack magic!
[04:42] Andres
I-I am! I hereby defy the laws of
creation and shake the foundation of—
[04:46] Aston
Useless fool! Maybe I oughta fire him, too!
[04:51] Aston
Guile! Where's the damn defense magic?!
[04:54] Guile
I-I'm casting it! But it doesn't
seem to be working well...
[04:57] Aston
Because you're hungover?!
Are you kidding me?!
[05:01] Aston
Damn it, they're all worthless!
[05:04] Aston
No other choice. We're pulling out for now!
[05:11] Aston
How the hell were you struggling
against magic beasts rated only B+?!
[05:15] Andres
You weren't doing much, either!
[05:19] Guile
Look, I'm just throwing it out there,
[05:21] Guile
but Zenos couldn't have actually been
using healing magic on us, right?
[05:25] Aston
There's no way in hell.
[05:27] Aston
Still, maybe we should hire a healer...
[05:31] Aston
The real deal, and not some
worthless peasant like Zenos.
[05:41] Aston
It took us ten days to get here.
[05:43] Aston
You said your name was Umin, right?
You'd better make yourself useful.
[05:47] Umin
I wouldn't expect too much.
[05:49] Umin
I normally heal in the capital.
[05:52] Umin
I just happen to have an adventuring license.
[05:55] Umin
I'm curious as to why the Golden Phoenix, who
are famous for coming out of battle unscathed,
[06:00] Umin
would need the support of a
mid-ranked healer like myself.
[06:04] Aston
A lot's happened, all right?
[06:07] Guile
Hey, is Yuma gonna be okay?
[06:10] Umin
Your archer friend?
[06:12] Umin
He should survive, but I don't think
he'll be adventuring ever again.
[06:17] Aston
That just proves he wasn't
Golden Phoenix material.
[06:22] Aston
The loss of an archer
won't make a difference.
[06:24] Aston
Guile defends, I attack,
[06:27] Aston
and Andres uses attack magic for the kill.
[06:30] Aston
Lord Fennel wants a scarf made of firefox
fur for his daughter's birthday present.
[06:37] Aston
And I am not missing my chance to
get in good with the upper crust!
[06:45] Aston
I'll cut 'em in two with my
treasured sword, Hunber!
[06:49] Aston
What?!
[06:50] Aston
An ambush?
[06:54] Aston
Guile! Defenses!
[07:07] Umin
Mr. Andres!
[07:09] Aston
Defensive magic is no reason
to get careless, damn it!
[07:13] Aston
Why can't I hit them?! Why?!
[07:18] Aston
My body feels sluggish. But why—
[07:20] Umin
Hey!
[07:21] Umin
Mr. Andres is going to be in real
trouble without proper healing!
[07:25] Aston
Why? Why?!
[07:25] Guile
What's the call, Aston?!
[07:27] Umin
You can't be serious about continuing this!
[07:28] Aston
Why?! Why isn't it working?!
[07:33] Aston
Are you even trying?!
[07:34] Umin
The defensive magic was in effect!
[07:37] Umin
If it wasn't, he would've died on impact.
[07:40] Aston
Well, a fat lot of good it does
if he still gets hurt so bad!
[07:42] Aston
You're a healer, so heal him already!
[07:45] Umin
I have to cast and enchant the spell
based on the condition of injury!
[07:49] Umin
I've done what I can for now,
[07:51] Umin
but he needs to be taken to a hospital with
specially prepared magic circles, and soon!
[07:55] Aston
We don't have time for that.
Fix him right now.
[07:58] Umin
Do you even realize what you're asking?
[08:01] Umin
Even the upper echelon of healers couldn't
restore him in this environment.
[08:04] Umin
The only ones capable of that are a select
few elite healers, or maybe a Saint.
[08:11] Aston
We've been taking damage
ever since I kicked him out.
[08:15] Aston
But it can't be that...
[08:16] Aston
Hey, could there be someone
capable of this elite healing magic,
[08:21] Aston
but without a healing license?
[08:23] Umin
It's hard to imagine, but... do you
have reason to believe there is?
[08:27] Aston
What am I even saying?
[08:29] Aston
There's no way that peasant
could've done all that.
[08:32] Aston
I'm overthinking it.
[08:33] Aston
He was just the party's slave.
[08:40] Fennel
It seems I was a fool for
placing my hopes in your group.
[08:43] Fennel
Begone, and don't darken
my doorstep ever again.
[08:47] Aston
P-Please, just hang on!
[08:49] Aston
Let me speak to Lord Fennel directly!
[08:51] Messenger
I'm afraid milady's birthday
has already passed.
[08:55] Messenger
What could you possibly say at this point?
[08:58] Aston
But—
[08:58] Messenger
Sir Aston.
[09:00] Messenger
Lord Fennel's disappointment is not rooted
entirely in your failed hunting attempts.
[09:06] Messenger
If you had judged the task impossible
and reported it as such,
[09:09] Messenger
he could've avoided the
embarrassment of having nothing
[09:13] Messenger
prepared for his daughter's birthday.
[09:15] Aston
How am I supposed to say "no" when it's a
chance to get in with a big-shot aristocrat?!
[09:20] Aston
I-It's not like that! We had a traitor!
[09:23] Aston
That bastard Zenos got in our way!
[09:24] Messenger
Zenos?
[09:26] Aston
That's right. I never gave Zenos's name
to make sure no one found out
[09:31] Aston
that someone from the
slums was in the party!
[09:34] Aston
I-It's nothing, sir.
[09:36] Aston
Please, just give us another chance!
[09:40] Aston
I can't believe I'm having to bow
my head to a damned servant!
[09:44] Messenger
And what, pray tell, can a party with only
half its members intact do to make amends?
[09:49] Aston
You don't have to worry about that!
[09:51] Aston
We'll be recruiting members
to make up for the losses soon.
[09:54] Aston
Next time, we'll be sure to get the job done!
[10:01] Guile
Hey, are you sure you
should've said all that?
[10:04] Guile
We don't have any leads yet.
[10:06] Aston
Don't worry about it.
[10:07] Aston
There was one other member
of the party, remember?
[10:10] Aston
Our slave.
[10:12] Guile
You mean Zenos?
[10:13] Aston
He'll be desperate to get back with us.
[10:15] Aston
He'll be weeping with gratitude
the moment I offer.
[10:18] Guile
That's a great idea, Aston!
[10:20] Aston
I don't believe Zenos was
keeping this party going.
[10:23] Aston
I refuse to believe it.
[10:25] Aston
But the fact is, everything was
going smoothly with him around.
[10:29] Aston
I'll use him like I did when we started out
and regain all the fame that we've lost.
[10:34] Aston
The phoenix will rise again!
[10:38] Aston
I'm coming to get you personally.
[10:41] Aston
Be grateful, Zenos.
[10:46] BG Characters{unmarked ad}
You doing anything?
[10:46] BG Characters{unmarked ad}
Not a thing.
[10:47] BG Characters{unmarked ad}
Come on, I'm not asking that much.
[10:53] Guile
Hey, I'm starting to think Zenos might've
already died in a ditch somewhere.
[10:57] Aston
Nah, he might still be alive.
[10:59] Aston
I did give him that gold
coin as severance pay.
[11:03] Aston
I could almost cry at the thought
of how generous I was.
[11:06] Guile
The slums aren't exactly small, though.
[11:09] Guile
How do we find him?
[11:10] Aston
I've got the perfect idea for that.
[11:12] Aston
We hire the three demihuman
bosses to help find him.
[11:17] Aston
Crooks like that are always
[11:19] Aston
on top of everything that
goes on in the slums.
[11:21] Guile
That makes sense! Good idea, Aston.
[11:26] Lizardman
Boss, this human wants to hire us.
[11:30] Zophia
A job?
[11:32] Zophia
I'm kinda busy, y'know.
I was about to go see the doc.
[11:37] Aston
Damn, she's fine.
[11:39] Aston
Wouldn't mind having her in my
harem once I become an aristocrat.
[11:43] Aston
I'm Aston, the leader of the Golden
Phoenix, a gold-class adventuring party.
[11:49] Zophia
That's an awful lot of qualifications.
[11:52] Zophia
Sun's gonna set before you're
done introducing yourself.
[11:54] Zophia
Let's get down to business already.
[11:57] Aston
I want you to find someone for me.
[11:59] Aston
A man named Zenos.
[12:01] Aston
He would've made his way into
the slums about two months ago.
[12:08] Zophia
Oh, I see what this is!
[12:10] Zophia
You're the idiots who kicked
the doc out of your party!
[12:14] Zophia
You certainly look dumb enough.
[12:17] Aston
Say what?!
[12:20] Zophia
Run on home.
[12:22] Zophia
The person you're looking for has better
things to do than put up with your nonsense.
[12:27] Zophia
And frankly, so do I.
[12:29] Aston
Who do you think you're talking to?!
[12:33] Zophia
And do you realize who you're talking to?
[12:37] Aston
This is a waste of time!
[12:40] Guile
What was that, Aston?!
[12:42] Aston
How should I know?!
[12:45] Lynga
Oh, so you're the party that was
stupid enough to kick Sir Zenos out!
[12:50] Lynga
Lynga thinks you'd be better off dying
and reincarnating as toilet roaches.
[12:55] Aston
You know Zenos, too?
[12:58] Lynga
Sir Zenos has no business
with toilet roaches.
[13:00] Lynga
If you know what's good for
you, you'll run on home.
[13:02] Aston
Say what?!
[13:04] Lynga
You wanna go?
[13:06] Lynga
Lynga has no time for toilet roaches, either.
[13:08] Aston
Damn it!
[13:10] Guile
What is going on?!
[13:15] Loewe
Oh? So you're the trash that kicked Zenos out?
[13:20] Loewe
What business do you have
with him after all this time?
[13:25] Guile
Wh-Who do you think—
[13:26] Aston
Stop talking, Guile.
[13:29] Loewe
Hey. If I find out you've
been harassing Zenos...
[13:32] Loewe
We orcs won't take too kindly
to that sort of thing.
[13:36] Guile
Aston...
[13:37] Aston
Not a word!
[13:38] Aston
The three leaders of the demihuman
gangs all love Zenos?
[13:42] Aston
That can't be right! It must be someone else!
[13:46] Aston
Some other guy named Zenos!
[13:48] Aston
There's no way that peasant
has this kind of sway!
[13:53] Guile
H-Hey, Aston...
[13:58] Aston
Zenos!
[14:00] Zenos
This way, Lily.
[14:02] Lily
Wait up, Zenos! I'm still having
trouble learning the streets.
[14:07] Zenos
The slums can be kind of
complicated in terms of layout.
[14:09] Lily
I'm surprised you know them so well.
[14:12] Lily
Is it because you used to live here?
[14:14] Aston
Hey! Zenos!
[14:18] Zenos
Is that you, Aston? And Guile?
[14:21] Aston
You're damn right it is.
[14:23] Aston
Looks like you managed to
survive somehow, Zenos.
[14:27] Zenos
What brings you to the slums?
[14:29] Aston
Good question. Care to guess?
[14:32] Zenos
Not really, no.
[14:34] Zenos
Well, I'm kind of busy, so...
[14:36] Aston
G-Get back here!
[14:39] Aston
I came for you, damn it!
[14:41] Zenos
What?
[14:42] Aston
I was looking for you!
[14:44] Zenos
Why?
[14:45] Aston
Congratulations! I'm going to let
you rejoin the Golden Phoenix!
[14:49] Zenos
No, thanks.
[14:49] Aston
Don't go bawling in gratitude—
[14:52] Aston
Wait, what?!
[14:53] Aston
Did I hear that right?!
Did you turn me down?!
[14:57] Zenos
Yeah, I did.
[14:58] Aston
Why?!
[14:59] Zenos
You even have to ask?
[15:00] Zenos
Unreasonable treatment and next to no pay.
There's basically nothing in it for me.
[15:05] Zenos
Wouldn't most people say "no"?
[15:06] Aston
That's not what I mean! I'm offering
you a chance to come back! Me!
[15:10] Zenos
Look, if you're that desperate,
[15:12] Zenos
I don't mind accompanying you on a
quest when I have some free time.
[15:17] Zenos
But you'll actually pay me this time, right?
[15:18] Aston
Huh? What are you even—
[15:20] Zenos
50,000 wen for every healing.
[15:23] Zenos
A million for critical injuries.
[15:25] Zenos
Triple that cost if you need
defensive and buff magic.
[15:28] Zenos
Don't expect a discount.
[15:30] Aston
Who do you think you are?!
[15:31] Aston
It's not like you have a
place around here, either!
[15:35] Lizardman
Dr. Zenos! How ya doing?
[15:38] Zenos
Hey. How's your leg feeling?
[15:40] Lizardman
Pretty great, thanks to you!
[15:42] Zenos
Glad to hear it.
[15:44] Kid A
Zenos, come play with us!
[15:46] Kid B
Who are those strangers?
[15:49] Adult A
Hey, Doc!
[15:50] Adult A
Appreciate you always patching me up.
[15:53] Aston
Hey!
[15:53] Lily
Zenos, these old guys are pretty noisy, huh?
[15:57] Aston
I am not old!
[15:59] Zenos
Well, let's head on back.
[16:01] Aston
Are you serious about not coming back?!
[16:04] Aston
When it's me making the offer?!
[16:07] Aston
I was the one who took you in!
Gave you a place to belong!
[16:11] Aston
It was all me!
[16:12] Zenos
Sorry, Aston,
[16:14] Zenos
but it's too late.
[16:20] Aston
Don't you ignore me.
[16:22] Aston
Get back here, Zeno—
[16:26] Krishna
Bold of you to attack someone
right in front of me.
[16:30] Krishna
The royal knights can't overlook that.
[16:33] Zenos
Huh? What brings you around, Krishna?
[16:36] Krishna
I came to see you.
[16:38] Zenos
But... I don't live around here.
[16:41] Krishna
I got lost.
[16:42] Krishna
That said, I managed to run into you, so my
lack of direction has paid off this time.
[16:46] Zenos
That's one way of looking at it.
[16:50] Aston
She's supposed to be the youngest vice
commander in the history of the royal knights...
[16:54] Aston
So why is she so friendly with Zenos?
[16:57] Aston
Just what are you?!
[17:01] Krishna
Now, I'm taking you to the nearest
station for attempted assault.
[17:06] Aston
It's not like that! I didn't
want to, but he forced me!
[17:12] Aston
Don't you... Don't you ignore me,
[17:15] Aston
Zenos!
[17:19] Zophia
Come to think of it, the crew that kicked
Doc out came calling on me the other day.
[17:24] Lynga
They came to see Lynga, too.
[17:26] Lynga
And they really did look stupid.
[17:28] Loewe
I had an encounter with
this trash party, as well.
[17:32] Zenos
You three don't hold back, huh?
[17:35] Zophia
I had a bad feeling, so I asked
some of my boys to watch them,
[17:40] Zophia
but they lost the trail.
[17:42] Lynga
Same for Lynga. Even werewolves'
noses have lost their scent.
[17:46] Loewe
They've managed to stay out of
the net cast by my orcs, as well.
[17:50] Lily
Maybe they just went home?
[17:52] Zophia
That'd be great, but if they went digging
even deeper, we might be in for trouble.
[17:57] Lily
Deeper?
[17:59] Carmilla
She means the underground guild.
[18:00] Lily
The underground guild?
[18:02] Zophia
It's a guild that handles illegal tasks.
[18:05] Loewe
The true bottom of the depths, which even
our demihuman gangs don't trifle with.
[18:08] Lynga
They'll do anything for the right price,
[18:12] Lynga
which is why Lynga hates them.
[18:13] Zophia
Drug deals, assassination,
revenge by proxy...
[18:19] Lily
Then if those loud old men go to the
underground guild and ask for something bad...
[18:24] Zenos
You need a lot of money to hire people
through the underground guild.
[18:27] Carmilla
Indeed. And if he bothered
to seek you out, Zenos,
[18:31] Carmilla
I'd wager this fellow's
finances are rather depleted.
[18:35] Carmilla
Which would mean he can't
afford that kind of trouble.
[18:38] Lily
Th-That's a relief.
[18:40] Lily
Then we don't have to worry...
[18:43] Lily
Zophia?
[18:44] Zophia
Well, I was remembering how
I've been hearing about someone
[18:48] Zophia
who will take jobs under certain
conditions, even without pay.
[18:52] Zophia
I think they called themselves... the Guide.
[18:59] Lily
Can't sleep?
[19:01] Zenos
Lily? You're still awake?
[19:04] Lily
I was asleep. But when I woke up,
I saw the lights were on...
[19:09] Lily
Want some tea? Or would that
make it even harder to sleep?
[19:14] Zenos
Actually, I would like some.
[19:25] Lily
How is it?
[19:26] Zenos
As good as always. I appreciate it.
[19:36] Zenos
What?
[19:37] Lily
When I can't sleep, you stroke my head.
I'm returning the favor.
[19:42] Zenos
Then I think I'll get a good
night's sleep after all.
[20:01] Carmilla
Unable to sleep, Zenos?
[20:04] Zenos
You're up, too?
[20:05] Carmilla
Well, there were three cups of tea prepared.
[20:08] Carmilla
How could I refuse?
[20:10] Carmilla
Has this run-in with your old
party kept you from sleeping?
[20:15] Zenos
What, you're worried about me?
[20:17] Zenos
At the end of the day, you're
actually pretty nice, Carmilla.
[20:20] Carmilla
Enough mockery!
[20:21] Carmilla
That's not the case, anyway!
[20:23] Carmilla
There's little to do at night, so I figured
I could go for a bit of conversation, that's all!
[20:28] Zenos
Okay, sorry.
[20:29] Zenos
This is too much tea for just me,
so I'd appreciate you joining in.
[20:32] Carmilla
In that case, I see no
reason to turn you down.
[20:38] Zenos
I'd honestly forgotten
about Aston and the others.
[20:42] Zenos
But after being reminded like that,
I kind of regret not slugging them.
[20:47] Zenos
That said, I was actually
thinking a bit further back.
[20:51] Carmilla
Zenos, you've said you learned healing
magic while living in the slums.
[20:57] Carmilla
How is that possible?
[20:59] Zenos
I was trying to revive a corpse,
and it came with the territory.
[21:04] Carmilla
That's forbidden sorcery.
[21:05] Zenos
Yeah. But when I was a kid, I didn't know
anything about resurrection or the like.
[21:09] Zenos
My teacher popped me on the head for it.
[21:13] Carmilla
You know, it's not exactly the same thing,
[21:17] Carmilla
but when I was among the living,
there was such a thing as artificial life...
[21:20] Carmilla
The sorcery to create golems.
[21:22] Zenos
Three hundred years ago, huh?
[21:24] Zenos
That would've been during the Man-Fiend War,
back when the Demon Lord was still around.
[21:28] Carmilla
It's a form of lost demon sorcery.
[21:32] Carmilla
They use a special kind
of magic stone as a core,
[21:33] Carmilla
then add carbon and sulfur, among other
ingredients, to create the golem.
[21:38] Zenos
Huh.
[21:38] Carmilla
The way they felt no pain or fear
[21:42] Carmilla
and worked tirelessly on their
tasks made them quite dreadful.
[21:47] Zenos
What were you up to three
hundred years ago, anyway?
[21:52] Carmila
It was so long ago, I've forgotten.
[21:55] Zenos
You really don't like to
talk about yourself, huh?
[21:58] Zenos
Well, I guess we should clean up...
[22:02] Zenos
What was that?
[22:04] Carmilla
It came from the slums.
[22:06] Carmilla
Wait just a moment.
[22:17] Carmilla
Unbelievable...
[22:19] Carmilla
We were just talking about it,
[22:22] Carmilla
and now a golem is rampaging in the slums?

[00:03] Guide
They told you about me because you
couldn't afford their fees, right?
[00:07] Guide
Sure, it's fine. I'm not
doing this just for money.
[00:13] Guide
Oh, me?
[00:14] Guide
You can just call me the Guide.
[00:18] Guide
I see. So, simply put, you're looking
to hire someone to get revenge for you.
[00:23] Guide
And not just on one person,
but also on his associates.
[00:27] Guide
Could you tell me why?
[00:30] Guide
Yes, I do need to know.
[00:33] Guide
The folks at the Underground Guild aren't
particular as long as they get paid,
[00:38] Guide
but I put a lot of value on motivation.
[00:42] Guide
If you don't want to discuss it,
we'll just say the deal fell through.
[00:48] Guide
You changed your mind, then?
[00:52] Guide
Well, that's certainly selfish!
[00:55] Guide
It's not even revenge. You're just
taking your frustrations out on him!
[00:58] Guide
You probably don't have any friends, do you?
[01:00] Guide
But you know, I like that.
[01:04] Guide
Very well. I'm willing to help.
[01:07] Guide
I've been working on this lately, and you've
provided the perfect chance to test it.
[01:12] Guide
And I'll be able to fulfill
your request at the same time.
[01:16] Guide
Now, would you mind telling me your name?
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[03:11] Zenos
That's a golem?
[03:13] Carmilla
It's inexplicable.
[03:14] Zenos
You scared me! I guess you came out, too?
[03:17] Carmilla
My curiosity got the better of me.
[03:19] Carmilla
How could an ancient relic
have possibly ended up here?
[03:23] Zenos
And Lily?
[03:24] Carmilla
Still asleep.
[03:25] Carmilla
If she saw that monstrosity,
it'd give her nightmares.
[03:28] Carmilla
It's for the best.
[03:30] Zophia
Doc!
[03:31] Zenos
Good to see you guys are all right.
[03:34] Zophia
What a relief. We were on our way to get you.
[03:37] Zophia
We're fine, but...
[03:40] Lynga
Many of Lynga's werewolves are
hurt so bad, they can't move.
[03:46] Loewe
About half of the orcs are
seriously injured, as well.
[03:49] Loewe
What in the world is that creature?
[03:52] Loewe
Even I can't eat all of that.
[03:55] Zenos
Just calm down, you three.
[03:57] Zenos
It seems to be some kind of artificial
lifeform from a long time ago.
[04:00] Carmilla
Sorcery that was thought to be lost.
[04:03] Zenos
Do you know where it came from?
[04:05] Loewe
I do not. One of my orcs said they saw
it coming from deeper in the slums.
[04:10] Zenos
Deeper in the slums?
[04:13] Zenos
Could it be the Underground Guild?
[04:15] Zenos
No, now's not the time to speculate.
[04:18] Zenos
Zophia, Lynga, Loewe.
[04:21] Zenos
I need you all to work together
and gather the injured in one spot.
[04:26] Zenos
Whoever's responsible for this is
gonna pay a hefty price. Count on it.
[04:33] Guide
As destructive as I had anticipated,
but not quite as mobile.
[04:39] Guide
Looks like there's room for improvement.
[04:42] Guide
Still, it should be able
to handle this request.
[04:46] Guide
I wonder how Zenos will react when the
people who admire him start dying one by one.
[04:53] Guide
The curtain is rising on the first act.
[04:55] Guide
Put on a good show for me.
[04:58] Zophia
Carry them over here!
[05:00] Lynga
Follow the scent of blood
to track down the injured!
[05:03] Loewe
It's only five people!
You can carry that many at once!
[05:05] Loewe
Show them what orc strength looks like!
[05:07] Zenos
You'll want to get clear, Carmilla.
[05:13] Zenos
High Heal!
[05:17] Zenos
Once you're healed, evacuate immediately!
[05:23] Zenos
Damn it all...
[05:24] Carmilla
What are you so upset about?
[05:26] Zenos
Imagine being dragged
out in the dead of night
[05:28] Zenos
and having to heal hundreds of people.
[05:31] Zenos
There's no guarantee I'll get paid, and I'm
worried about Lily. She's still at the house.
[05:35] Zenos
I'm pissed at whoever's behind this!
[05:37] Carmilla
There's no telling what the
golem's master was after,
[05:40] Carmilla
but I doubt they expected to have their
aims thwarted under a cloud of griping.
[05:45] Guide
Well, this was unexpected.
[05:48] Guide
He's elite-class... maybe
even better than that.
[05:51] Guide
Very good, Zenos. I love it when
people exceed my expectations.
[05:56] Guide
That said, even if you heal the wounded,
[05:59] Guide
until you stop the golem,
it's not a real solution.
[06:03] Guide
So what will you do?
[06:06] Guide
I'll concede the first round to you.
[06:09] Guide
But how will the second go?
[06:12] Zophia
There are no more injured to be found.
[06:15] Lynga
Lynga's men said the same thing.
[06:18] Loewe
Likewise from the orcs.
[06:20] Zenos
I see. Good work, everyone.
[06:23] Zophia
Looks like no one died, thanks to you, Doc.
[06:27] Zenos
That's a relief.
[06:29] Zenos
But that thing is still making a mess...
[06:31] Zenos
You don't suppose it'll get bored
eventually and go home, do you?
[06:35] Carmilla
Impossible.
[06:37] Carmilla
Golems don't stop until they've
fulfilled their orders.
[06:41] Carmilla
And I'd wager its orders were
something like "destroy the slums."
[06:46] Zenos
Aw, man, isn't this enough already?
[06:50] Carmilla
But it doesn't make sense.
[06:53] Carmilla
The high-purity magic stone
that forms the core of golems
[06:56] Carmilla
is only found on the southernmost continent,
where the Demon Lord's castle was.
[06:59] Carmilla
And it should have been mostly
used up during the Man-Fiend War...
[07:04] Carmilla
The systems for black magic
were thought lost for ages.
[07:07] Carmilla
Even the other ingredients for
that hulk would be hard to acquire.
[07:10] Carmilla
Who could have done this?
[07:12] Zenos
Well, we're looking right at the result,
so what choice is there?
[07:15] Zenos
This is a massive pain in the ass,
but I guess I'd better go.
[07:18] Carmilla
Go? Go where?
[07:21] Zenos
Isn't it obvious?
[07:23] Zenos
I need to take down that monster.
[07:26] Zophia
We're with you, Doc.
[07:29] Zenos
You sure? I can't guarantee emergency care.
[07:32] Zophia
I'm not about to stand around
after this thing wrecked my home.
[07:36] Lynga
This is our town!
[07:38] Loewe
I say we teach this creature
how fearsome we can be.
[07:43] Zenos
Carmilla, how do we take down the golem?
[07:46] Carmilla
You must destroy the magic
stone that makes up its core.
[07:50] Carmilla
Until you do, it'll simply
regenerate, time and time again.
[07:53] Zenos
Destroy it, huh?
[07:55] Zenos
If we destroy that magic stone,
I doubt I'll be able to resell it.
[07:58] Zenos
All right, guys, start by hitting
it with everything you've got.
[08:02] Zenos
Don't worry. I'll back you up.
[08:06] Zenos
Agility Boost.
[08:10] Zophia
What the...
[08:11] Zophia
I'm suddenly feeling light on my feet!
[08:13] Lynga
Sir Zenos must've done something!
[08:15] Loewe
Good. Now we can put up a real fight.
[08:18] Zenos
Strength Boost. Impact Increase.
[08:37] Zophia
Lynga! You alive?
[08:39] Lynga
Surprisingly, yes.
[08:42] Lynga
I think I have Sir Zenos to thank.
[08:44] Zenos
I haven't done battle in a while, but
I'm starting to remember how it works.
[08:48] Zenos
There are two things to watch out for.
[08:50] Zenos
First, the farther away I am,
the weaker the effects of magic become,
[08:53] Zenos
so I need to maintain a certain distance.
[08:56] Zenos
And the other... Healing,
defense, and ability boosts
[08:59] Zenos
might be similar,
but their activation is distinct,
[09:02] Zenos
so I can't functionally
cast them all at once.
[09:05] Zenos
I have to protect them until they go
on the attack, then enhance that,
[09:09] Zenos
and immediately heal any injuries they get.
[09:15] Zenos
Okay. I think I know what to do.
[09:17] Zenos
It takes a certain amount
of time to regenerate.
[09:21] Zenos
I need you all to shatter both its legs!
[09:24] Zophia
Never saw the day I'd be
fighting alongside you girls!
[09:29] Lynga
And it's all thanks to Sir Zenos!
[09:31] Loewe
Can't say I've ever fought
with two more reliable allies!
[09:38] Zophia
Trouble, Doc! There's a kid over there!
[09:39] Zenos
What?!
[09:41] Zenos
Did they not evacuate in time?
[09:43] Zenos
Defense magic requires too much precision
to cast on someone I can't see!
[09:46] Zenos
Will I make it?!
[10:06] Guide
My, my. You really are full of surprises, Zenos.
[10:11] Guide
You've claimed victory in the second act, too.
[10:15] Guide
And now it's time for the climax.
[10:18] Guide
One last decision awaits you.
[10:21] Carmilla
Inconceivable!
[10:22] Carmilla
Golems only follow simple orders.
They shouldn't be capable of this!
[10:26] Carmilla
It's strange enough that it became
fiercer once it started fighting you!
[10:32] Zenos
Suppose someone was trying to create
life from an imperfect magic stone.
[10:36] Zenos
What options would they have?
[10:40] Carmilla
Are you saying...
[10:41] Zenos
I've finished scanning the golem.
[10:44] Zenos
The magic stone is in its left breast.
[10:46] Zenos
Is that you in there, Aston?
[10:52] (Flashback) Guide
Would you mind telling me your name?
[10:57] (Flashback) Guide
I see. Aston, then.
[11:03] Guide
It looks like he's caught on.
[11:06] Guide
I thought the best way to create life
[11:09] Guide
from an imperfect magic stone would
be to combine it with a living human.
[11:12] Guide
The fusion of magic stone and
man creates a new kind of core.
[11:17] Guide
And humans are hard to control,
with their complex emotions,
[11:20] Guide
so a simpleton with intense negative
feelings made the perfect choice.
[11:24] Guide
Beyond that, I just made it clear that the
magic stone was necessary for his revenge,
[11:29] Guide
and once it was implanted,
I created the golem.
[11:32] Guide
He and the magic stone are one now.
[11:34] Guide
So, how will you lower the
curtain on this fight, Zenos?
[11:40] Guide
After all the lives you've healed and saved,
[11:43] Guide
you'll be killing the party member
[11:46] Guide
who lifted you out of the slums in order to destroy the magic stone!
[11:51] Guide
Could there be a more thrilling screenplay?!
[11:54] Guide
And all it cost me was one worthless life.
[12:01] Zenos
All right, sorry, but I need the
three of you to get clear.
[12:04] Zophia
Doc? If we leave now, the thing's
just gonna regenerate again.
[12:07] Lynga
Lynga can still fight!
[12:09] Loewe
We can handle the front line.
[12:11] Zenos
That'd probably be the smarter idea, but...
[12:15] Zenos
"Healers shouldn't fight on the front lines."
[12:18] Zenos
That was probably my teacher's
seventh most repeated line.
[12:21] Zenos
If you're focused on your own fight,
[12:23] Zenos
you can't focus on supporting your allies.
[12:27] Zenos
But...
[12:29] Zenos
Given what I know now, I'm the only
one who can settle this with him.
[12:39] Carmilla
It's nearly dawn, and as I'm no fan
of the sun, I'll be heading home.
[12:44] Zenos
Okay. I should be home soon.
[12:46] Carmilla
I wasn't concerned in the first place,
[12:48] Carmilla
but I'll have some tea waiting for you.
[12:51] Zenos
You make it sound like I'm gonna owe you,
[12:53] Zenos
but I'm pretty sure it'll be Lily who makes it.
[13:00] Zenos
Aston. It's just the two of us here now.
[13:04] Zenos
When you called out to
me here in the slums...
[13:07] Zenos
That was where it all began, wasn't it?
[13:10] Zenos
Someone as obnoxious and selfish as you,
saving a kid? That's definitely odd.
[13:16] Zenos
I heard Guile mention once that the reason
you're obsessed with money and power is
[13:20] Zenos
because your younger sister died when you
couldn't afford the medicine she needed.
[13:25] Zenos
Did that kid remind you of her?
[13:28] Zenos
Is there still some part of
your humanity in there?
[13:33] Zenos
I guess the rage is still there, too.
[13:35] Zenos
Angry because the pup you took in
found a new home after you dumped him?
[13:38] Zenos
Back then, I always thought it was strange
how you knew I had no place to belong.
[13:44] Zenos
But now I understand.
[13:46] Zenos
It's because you didn't, either.
[13:54] Zenos
Not that I really care at this point!
[14:16] Zenos
Well, we meet again.
[14:19] Zenos
Not that I'm thrilled about that...
[14:21] Zenos
But today will be the last time
I ever have to see your face.
[14:28] Zenos
Now, it's time for our adventure
to come to an end, Aston.
[14:34] Guide
Well. So that's his move?
[14:37] Guide
He kills with less hesitation
than I expected.
[14:40] Guide
Then again, given the abuse
he's apparently suffered,
[14:43] Guide
I suppose it's only natural.
[14:46] Guide
I guess that's a wrap, then.
[14:49] Guide
Kind of a disappointment,
but it is what it is.
[14:55] Guide
Wait, no...
[14:56] Guide
Is he...
[15:10] Zenos
This is exhausting enough.
Settle down already!
[15:14] Guide
Healing and destroying in tandem?
[15:16] Guide
He cuts the parts that are
fused with magic stone away,
[15:19] Guide
then gradually heals the bits
of physiology that are left.
[15:24] Guide
Cut away too much and Aston dies.
[15:26] Guide
Hesitate too much and the magic stone
will fuse with the regenerated body.
[15:32] Guide
And this is after healing hundreds,
[15:34] Guide
and having supported the
demihumans in combat...
[15:36] Guide
Despite all that, he's maintaining all of his
caution and focus to excise the magic stone?
[15:43] Guide
There's someone capable of doing all that?
[15:47] Guide
I can't believe what I'm seeing.
[15:50] Zenos
To be honest, the world would
probably be better off without you.
[15:55] Zenos
I know I would be.
[15:57] Aston
Why?
[16:01] Zenos
Do you realize how much all
this damage is gonna cost you?
[16:04] Zenos
And you're too broke to pay it off, so it'll
be collected from your collaborator, too.
[16:08] Zenos
You don't get to die until you
confess who put you up to this.
[16:12] Zenos
That's the first reason.
[16:14] Zenos
As for the second... You might
be a worthless piece of crap,
[16:18] Zenos
but you did do two good things for me.
[16:22] Zenos
You took me out of the slums, and you gave
me that bit of severance pay on a whim.
[16:28] Zenos
That single gold coin let me save Lily,
which led to me starting the clinic,
[16:33] Zenos
and that changed my life.
[16:36] Zenos
There's one other thing...
[16:37] Zenos
And it's the biggest reason I'm not going
to just kill you to get this over with.
[16:41] Zenos
It's because I'm a healer.
[16:45] Zenos
You get it now, you stupid idiot?!
[17:09] Aston
It's now so clear to me how amazing
you are that it makes me sick.
[17:14] Aston
I've lost everything, but you
still expect me to go on living.
[17:19] Aston
Is this your revenge?
[17:23] Zenos
Don't exaggerate. I didn't
think it through that far.
[17:29] Aston
Through my haze, I could see you
backing up the demihumans.
[17:33] Aston
You did the same thing with us, didn't you?
[17:36] Zenos
You're creeping me out.
[17:38] Zenos
What are you after now?
[17:40] Aston
That's harsh... but I guess I can't
blame you for feeling that way.
[17:45] Aston
I spent my whole life using others,
only to be used in the end.
[17:50] Aston
What a joke.
[17:53] Aston
I know nothing I say will make a
difference, but I still need to say it.
[17:59] Aston
I'm sorry.
[18:00] Aston
I'm sorry, Zenos!
[18:04] Zenos
That's enough. Chin up, Aston.
[18:07] Zenos
How am I supposed to hit you otherwise?
[18:07] Aston
No! I can't accept that—
[18:11] Zenos
Now that you're back to normal, I don't
need to hold back anymore, y'know?
[18:16] Zenos
Ability Boost. Ten times arm strength.
[18:19] Zenos
I left just enough mana to pull this off.
[18:20] Aston
Whoa, hold on...
[18:23] Zenos
The biggest reason I left you alive
[18:25] Zenos
is because I wouldn't feel any better
slugging you if you weren't conscious.
[18:25] Aston
Now, let's not be hasty... Hang on!
[18:31] Zenos
Do you realize how much trouble
you caused, you piece of crap?!
[18:34] Zenos
I'm not letting you get off with an apology!
[18:49] Krishna
Wake up already.
[18:54] Krishna
I came because there were
reports of a monster attack,
[18:57] Krishna
and this is the second
time I've encountered you.
[19:00] Krishna
It took some gall to flee
the way you did last time.
[19:02] Aston
Where's Zenos?
[19:04] Krishna
I ran into him on the way
here, and he filled me in.
[19:07] Krishna
It's a miracle that a disaster of this
scale happened without a single fatality.
[19:12] Krishna
You'll owe Mr. Zenos for the rest of your life.
[19:15] Aston
I guess you're right.
[19:19] Krishna
Aston Boehringal.
[19:21] Krishna
You're under arrest for attempted assault,
fleeing arrest, false testimony,
[19:24] Krishna
revenge-by-proxy,
indiscriminate rampaging,
[19:27] Krishna
damage of personal property,
and many more charges.
[19:31] Krishna
Brace yourself for a suitable punishment.
[19:36] Krishna
I think I'll add public
indecency to the list, too.
[19:43] Krishna
Mr. Zenos had a message for you, as well.
[19:46] Krishna
"I took your sword while
you were unconscious."
[19:49] Krishna
"It's a top-class item from an underground
labyrinth, so it should sell for a decent price."
[19:54] Krishna
"If nothing else, it should cover the
cost of the damaged housewares."
[19:57] Krishna
"And considering I was the one who found it,
[20:00] Krishna
it's about time you gave it back,
you thief," he concluded.
[20:05] Aston
Now I...
[20:07] Aston
I really have lost everything.
[20:10] Aston
I don't have a single thing left.
[20:14] Krishna
He mentioned one other thing.
[20:18] Krishna
"That's your severance pay. I never want
anything to do with you again," he said.
[20:24] Aston
Zenos!
[20:39] Zenos
I feel like I'm gonna
collapse from exhaustion.
[20:41] Zophia
Doc, are you all right?
[20:43] Lynga
Sir Zenos, you don't look so good!
[20:46] Loewe
You're walking less and less steadily...
[20:49] Loewe
Let me help you.
[20:50] Zenos
It's fine. You're all probably just as tired.
[20:57] Zenos
H-Hey!
[20:58] Zophia
Don't sweat it, Doc.
[21:00] Zophia
You look after me all the time,
so it's only fair that I pay you back.
[21:05] Lynga
It's only natural! Lynga would
honestly prefer to get even closer.
[21:10] Loewe
I won't let you two get ahead of me!
I'll be the one doing any clinging.
[21:15] Zophia
I was carrying him first!
[21:16] Zenos
Just this once, I'll indulge them.
[21:17] Loewe
She who gets in, gets the win!
[21:18] Zophia
Say what?!
[21:20] Guide
I should go into hiding for a while.
[21:24] Guide
I'm sure you'll get in my
way again someday, Zenos.
[21:28] Guide
When that happens, we'll play some more.
[21:31] Guide
I'm not going to forget you.
[21:38] Carmilla
Looks like you're alive. Resilient, aren't you?
[21:41] Zenos
Sorry to disappoint you.
[21:43] Carmilla
You ought to be.
[21:45] Carmilla
I was looking forward to having
peace and quiet again.
[21:49] Lily
She says that, but Carmilla was so
worried about you being out late,
[21:53] Lily
she was floating all over the house!
[21:56] Carmilla
Foolish Lily!
[21:57] Carmilla
She's lying!
[21:59] Zenos
Oh, yeah?
[22:00] Carmilla
Wh-What is that face supposed to mean?!
[22:02] Lily
I was worried when she
told me what was going on,
[22:06] Lily
but I knew you'd make it back.
[22:10] Lily
Welcome home, Zenos!
[22:17] Zenos
I'm back, everyone.
[22:21] Lily
Let's drink tea together!

[00:04] Zenos
This feels amazing...
[00:07] Zenos
The plan was to work quietly and
inconspicuously as an underground healer,
[00:10] Zenos
but things sure got noisier than I expected.
[00:15] Zenos
It's been a long time since I've

I'm glad I came here.
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[01:53] Krishna
The investigation into the mastermind behind
the golem attack hasn't revealed much.
[01:59] Krishna
All I've been able to confirm is that it's an
individual who calls himself "The Guide."
[02:05] Zenos
I see.
[02:07] Zenos
"The Guide"...
[02:08] Zenos
I'm going to remember that name.
[02:11] Zenos
And one day, I'm going to collect from him.
[02:14] Krishna
There wasn't much of a
trail to follow, either.
[02:17] Krishna
The location where they met with that
man, Aston, was already abandoned,
[02:21] Krishna
with no trace left behind.
[02:24] Zophia
I did some digging myself.
[02:26] Zophia
The guy only started visiting
the Underground Guild recently,
[02:29] Zophia
and he tended to be alone.
[02:32] Lynga
Lynga heard the same kind of story.
[02:36] Loewe
In the underworld, the standard is to avoid
prying into each other's backgrounds.
[02:40] Loewe
I think there's a limit to what can
be learned from questioning people.
[02:43] Krishna
The Royal Knights will be pursuing
him as a dangerous individual,
[02:47] Krishna
but considering how thoroughly
he erased his trail,
[02:50] Krishna
it's likely he won't resurface for a while.
[02:53] Zenos
I see.
[02:55] Zophia
But he'll come back sooner or later.
[02:57] Zophia
That's the impression I get.
[02:59] Lynga
Yeah. I think this Guide
still has some scheme going.
[03:04] Loewe
He won't be simple to deal
with, that's for sure.
[03:07] Loewe
He may have ties even
deeper in the underworld.
[03:10] Krishna
I'd appreciate it if you demihumans
didn't randomly speculate.
[03:14] Zophia
Haven't you been mostly guessing yourself?
[03:17] Krishna
I appreciate your help from
the other day, but no.
[03:22] Krishna
My guesses are not simply guesses,
[03:25] Krishna
but speculation informed by my
investigation and experience.
[03:28] Zenos
Hang on a second.
[03:29] Zenos
Could you all stop talking at each
other from across the room?
[03:33] Zenos
It's kind of awkward.
[03:34] Krishna
Th-There's nothing that can be done.
[03:37] Krishna
Given my position as a Royal Knight,
[03:39] Krishna
I can hardly be seen sipping tea at the
same table as a group of demihumans.
[03:42] Zophia
Like we'd even want you at our table.
[03:45] Zenos
Okay, settle down.
[03:46] Zenos
No fighting in the clinic!
[03:49] Zenos
Besides, I'm taking today
off because I'm tired!
[03:51] Zenos
So if you're not an
emergency patient, get out!
[03:58] Lily
Hey, Zenos...
[04:03] Lily
I had an idea.
[04:06] Zenos
You did?
[04:08] Lily
Yeah. You've seemed really
tired since the golem attack,
[04:12] Lily
so I thought about what
might make you feel better.
[04:15] Lily
So maybe... for a change of pace...
the two of us could... go...
[04:20] Zenos
Go... where?
[04:24] Lily
You and I could go to a hot—
[04:25] Zophia
Doc!
[04:28] Zenos
What's up? Forget something?
[04:30] Zophia
Actually, I have a proposal.
[04:32] Zenos
A proposal?
[04:34] Zophia
Well, that golem mess was
a real nightmare, right?
[04:37] Zophia
How about we head to a hot spring?
[04:39] Zenos
A hot spring?
[04:41] Zophia
I was thinking it could
help you recover a bit!
[04:44] Zenos
I see...
[04:45] Zenos
That might make for a nice change of pace.
[04:47] Zophia
Awesome!
[04:49] Zophia
It's a promise, Doc.
[04:54] Zenos
What? You forget something?
[04:58] Lynga
Nope!
[04:59] Lynga
Lynga has a brilliant idea!
[05:02] Zenos
Oh, you do?
[05:05] Lynga
The golem attack was tough for all of us...
[05:08] Lynga
So let's go to a hot spring!
[05:10] Zenos
A hot spring?
[05:11] Zenos
It doesn't sound bad, but—
[05:12] Lynga
Great!
[05:13] Lynga
It's a promise, Sir Zenos!
[05:19] Loewe
Zenos! I think—
[05:20] Zenos
A hot spring, right?! You didn't forget
anything! You just wanna go to a hot spring!
[05:23] Zenos
That's it, isn't it?!
[05:24] Loewe
H-How did you know?
[05:26] Loewe
We must truly be of one heart!
[05:28] Zenos
You and the other girls, maybe!
[05:30] Zenos
No wonder you get along!
[05:35] Krishna
M-Mr. Zenos, I wanted to ask you...
[05:38] Zenos
Hot springs, right?! You wanna
go to a hot spring, too, don't you?!
[05:42] Zenos
Sounds like fun!
[05:45] Zenos
Why are they all so
obsessed with hot springs?
[05:49] Zenos
Anyway, what did you want to talk about, Lily?
[05:52] Lily
Never mind! Just... never mind!
[05:57] Carmilla
How amusing to see your effort to outdo your
rivals undercut by all of them in the same fashion.
[06:04] Carmilla
I never tire of watching the unseemly
struggles of women in love.
[06:08] Zenos
It's occurred to me
[06:10] Zenos
that for the highest class of undead,
your tastes are kind of vulgar.
[06:14] Carmilla
And I certainly haven't been to
a hot spring in a long time!
[06:17] Zenos
Wait, you're coming, too?
[06:24] Zenos
This is the men's bath.
[06:26] Zophia
I know.
[06:27] Zophia
It'll be fine. I put a sign up
that says it's being cleaned.
[06:31] Zenos
Wh-Whoa!
[06:34] Zophia
My inclination is to get
a little more aggressive,
[06:37] Zophia
but I don't want to turn you against me.
[06:39] Zenos
I see...
[06:41] Zophia
Y'know, my brother and underlings
have said I seem different lately.
[06:46] Zenos
You do seem calmer.
[06:49] Zophia
I never dreamed I'd get along
with werewolves and orcs,
[06:53] Zophia
much less chat with a Royal Knight.
[06:57] Zophia
I think you might just change the world, Doc.
[07:02] Zenos
You're exaggerating.
[07:03] Zenos
I'm just an underground healer
at a run-down clinic.
[07:07] Zenos
Hey...
[07:08] Zophia
What is it?
[07:09] Zenos
Why are you getting closer and closer?
[07:12] Zophia
You noticed, huh?
[07:13] Zophia
I was hoping the conversation would
get you to lower your guard.
[07:16] Zenos
I was stupid for expecting
this to go normally!
[07:20] Lynga
Hold it right there!
[07:22] Lynga
Zophia! No fair getting a head start!
[07:25] Zophia
This is the men's bath!
[07:26] Zophia
What's wrong with you?
[07:28] Zenos
What's wrong with you?
[07:29] Lynga
Lynga is simply dizzy from the heat!
[07:33] Zenos
That's clearly a lie.
[07:35] Lynga
All of the dizziness has Lynga falling over!
[07:40] Lynga
Let go, Zophia! Lynga is on the
verge of fainting into Zenos's arms!
[07:46] Zophia
If you're about to faint,
why are you still so strong?!
[07:49] Zenos
Quit fussing, you two!
[07:51] Zenos
Settle down, and more importantly, get out!
[07:53] Loewe
Hold it!
[07:54] Loewe
I won't have you forget about me!
[07:56] Zenos
What were you even doing in there?!
[08:00] Loewe
I was waiting in the water for you, Zenos!
[08:03] Loewe
What do you think?
[08:04] Loewe
Is my body not, as they say, bodacious?
[08:06] Zenos
It's kinda too dark to tell.
[08:08] Zenos
That wasn't an invitation
to come closer, okay?
[08:11] Zophia
You're not going anywhere!
[08:13] Lynga
Lynga is even more bodacious!
[08:18] Krishna
Enough!
[08:20] Krishna
What do you demihumans think you're doing?!
[08:23] Krishna
This is the men's bath!
[08:25] Krishna
Have you no shame at all?!
[08:27] Zophia
Then what are you doing in here?
[08:29] Loewe
You're here to see Zenos, too, aren't you?
[08:33] Krishna
N-No! I just got lost and mistook
the men's bath for the women's!
[08:39] Zophia
Great, more competition.
[08:41] Lynga
Lynga will not lose!
[08:43] Loewe
I will etch my sublime nudity into your eyes!
[08:46] Zenos
All of you...
[08:49] Zenos
Go to the women's bath!
[08:52] Umin
What was that?
[08:54] Umin
It'd be a shame if there was some
weirdo who ruined my hot spring trip.
[09:00] Umin
To be sent on a house call to
Flamme, the city of hot springs...
[09:03] Umin
I wonder if he noticed how tired I was.
[09:07] Krishna
Unbelievable. The three
of you are just shameless!
[09:10] Zophia
I don't buy that, coming from you.
[09:13] Zophia
Not that I didn't know it already,
but the doc's no fun.
[09:16] Lynga
Lynga thinks he's just embarrassed.
[09:18] Loewe
I was hoping to display
more of my grand nude form!
[09:22] Umin
Kind of surprising to see a mixed group
like that bathing together socially.
[09:28] Zophia
You need something?
[09:31] Umin
Oh, excuse me! It's nothing, sorry.
[09:34] Zophia
If you say so.
[09:36] Loewe
She was likely entranced by my proportions!
[09:39] Loewe
To enchant even other women...
How wicked must my body be?
[09:42] Lynga
Lynga sometimes wonders where
your confidence comes from.
[09:47] Lily
I'm jealous.
[09:50] Umin
She's adorable!
[09:53] Lily
Maybe if I had a nicer body, I could've
charged into the men's bath more confidently.
[10:00] Umin
"Charged"?
[10:01] Lily
Everyone else's chests are so big.
[10:04] Lily
And mine... isn't!
[10:23] Carmilla
There's no need to be pessimistic.
[10:25] Carmilla
You're still growing, after all.
[10:28] Carmilla
And there's no guarantee that
bigger is the preferred size.
[10:32] Lily
Is that true?! Even if they're
small, he might still like them?
[10:38] Carmilla
Indeed! There are depths to this world
that children have trouble imagining.
[10:44] Lily
The world of depths...
[10:47] Lily
The world of small chests!
[10:50] Lily
Huh? Carmilla, you seem more
transparent than usual.
[10:54] Carmilla
It's so pleasant, I may be
on the verge of ascending.
[10:58] Carmilla
Oh, I'm vanishing! I'm vanishing!
[11:00] Lily
Oh, no! Don't go!
[11:02] Carmilla
A joke, of course.
[11:04] Lily
Don't scare me like that!
[11:06] Umin
Is that... a wraith?!
[11:10] Umin
Root of all life, by your blessing...
[11:12] Carmilla
Oh, dear! It seems there are other guests here!
[11:17] Zenos
Whoa, you scared me!
[11:19] Zenos
You're in on this now, too, Carmilla?!
[11:21] Carmilla
You seem upset. Shall I rinse you off?
[11:24] Zenos
You want me to exorcise you?!
[11:26] Umin
Did I... imagine that?
[11:29] Umin
I must really be exhausted.
[11:34] Zophia
Doc, here's to more than one job done well!
[11:37] Zophia
Cheers!
[11:38] All
Cheers!
[11:42] Lily
It looks so good!
[11:46] Zenos
Krishna, if you're gonna make
that face, why not just join us?
[11:51] Lily
That's right! Come join us!
[11:54] Krishna
For a guardian of order to be
put in this kind of situation...
[11:57] Krishna
I only took a single day of leave and
find myself here with all of you!
[12:04] Krishna
The idea of toasting
around the same table...
[12:07] Zenos
Sounds like your whole thing is complicated.
[12:09] Zenos
By the way, where's Carmilla?
[12:11] Lily
"I will take my drink in my room,
where I can relax," she said.
[12:21] Zenos
I'm back.
[12:23] Zenos
And I'm tired...
[12:25] Carmilla
Was the meal not an enjoyable one?
[12:27] Zenos
It was, at first.
[12:29] Zenos
But then they started a drinking game where
the winner was supposed to sit on my lap...
[12:40] Zenos
Wasn't the whole point of all
this to help with my exhaustion?
[12:44] Carmilla
Oh, it's fine.
[12:46] Carmilla
Enjoy the lively times while they last.
[12:50] Carmilla
I'm sure you're going to be drawn into
more complicated matters soon enough.
[12:54] Zenos
Could you please stop jinxing me?
[12:57] Carmilla
A wraith's intuition tends to be accurate.
[13:00] Zenos
How did you get here, anyway?
[13:03] Zenos
I thought you couldn't be
out in the sun for long.
[13:06] Carmilla
With that.
[13:08] Carmilla
Since my body is ethereal, I can
possess objects I'm attached to.
[13:13] Carmilla
I inhabited that staff, which
Lily carried during the day.
[13:17] Zenos
If you're attached to it, did it
belong to you when you were alive?
[13:21] Zenos
What were you up to back then, anyway?
[13:24] Carmilla
It was so long ago that I've forgotten.
[13:28] Carmilla
Now, given your troubles,
let me pour you a drink.
[13:33] Zenos
You really don't like to talk
about your past, do you?
[13:47] Umin
What happened?!
[13:48] Innkeeper
My husband said he was going
to prepare breakfast,
[13:51] Innkeeper
then he went to the kitchen,
and there was this loud noise...
[13:54] Umin
The fire magic stones may have exploded.
[13:57] Umin
I'm a healer. I'll do what I can.
[14:01] Umin
Root of all life, by your blessing,
[14:04] Umin
grant your amelioration.
[14:06] Umin
Heal!
[14:09] Umin
First aid is the best I can do here.
[14:11] Umin
This will take a while to properly heal.
[14:13] Umin
And in the condition his arm is in, he
may never be able to hold a knife again.
[14:17] Zenos
What happened?
[14:19] Umin
Who are you?
[14:20] Zenos
A guest.
[14:22] Zenos
I was wondering what that explosion was.
[14:25] Zenos
He's burnt?
[14:26] Umin
There's a Royal Hospital branch
in the center of the city.
[14:30] Umin
They would have more
advanced healing magic circles.
[14:33] Umin
Can you help me carry him?
[14:35] Zenos
Never heard of that stuff
before. Sounds interesting.
[14:38] Umin
Interesting?
[14:40] Zenos
But with these injuries, I doubt he'll need it.
[14:44] Lily
Zenos! What happened?
[14:46] Zenos
A bit of a kitchen fire.
[14:48] Zenos
Our ride is leaving soon. Let's go.
[14:50] Umin
W-Wait!
[14:52] Zenos
The food here was good.
I wouldn't mind eating it again.
[14:55] Zenos
So this one's on the house.
[14:58] Umin
Unbelievable. Abandoning
someone who's injured...
[15:03] Man
Huh? What happened to me?
[15:05] Hostess
Honey!
[15:07] Umin
How?
[15:07] Hostess
Thank goodness! I'm so relieved!
[15:08] Umin
Did my spell do that?
[15:12] Umin
No, he was hurt too badly
for that to be possible.
[15:15] Umin
To treat that kind of burn instantly with
no magical circle for reinforcement,
[15:19] Umin
he must be highly ranked...
[15:20] Umin
No, only a Saint or an
elite healer could do that!
[15:28] Umin
And that's the story.
[15:31] Becker
An elite healer capable of restoring
severe burns in an instant...
[15:36] Becker
Those are valuable. There are less
than ten of them in the country.
[15:40] Becker
I'm sure the government would
want him as a national asset.
[15:43] Umin
He left while I was still in shock.
[15:47] Becker
Do you remember what he was like?
[15:50] Umin
He had black hair, but other than that...
[15:54] Umin
I think I remember someone
calling him "Zenos," though.
[15:59] Becker
That could be an alias,
so it's not much to go on.
[16:03] Becker
Still, if he healed someone and then
went on his way, he can't be a bad guy.
[16:07] Becker
I'm sure there's no harm in letting him go.
[16:09] Becker
If anything, running into him again
would mean we'd have to dig deeper.
[16:13] Umin
I see.
[16:16] Umin
Actually, one other thing I remember
is that he had a black overcoat.
[16:21] Becker
An elite-grade healer
with a black overcoat...
[16:26] Becker
I've changed my mind.
[16:28] Becker
Let's search for him after all.
[16:30] Umin
Oh... Okay.
[16:32] Umin
But how?
[16:34] Becker
If he doesn't have official registration,
[16:37] Becker
he may not be a legal citizen.
[16:40] Umin
You think he's from the slums?
[16:41] Umin
That doesn't narrow it down much, though.
[16:44] Becker
Oh, I'm sure we'll manage...
[16:48] Umin
I'm not sure why you're laughing.
[16:50] Umin
Or why you suddenly changed your mind.
[16:53] Becker
I'd just like to meet him.
[16:55] Becker
As a fellow elite healer.
[17:00] Zonde
Sorry about this, Doc!
[17:04] Zenos
Is he sick?
[17:05] Zonde
Don't know him, but he coughed up
a ton of blood and then collapsed.
[17:09] Zenos
It might be contagious,
so you made the right call.
[17:13] Zenos
Lay him down on the bed.
[17:21] Zenos
His lungs are a mess...
[17:25] Zenos
This is Red Lung!
[17:27] Lily
Red Lung?
[17:29] Zenos
Lily, Zonde, back away.
[17:32] Zenos
There was a pandemic that killed
a lot of people a while back.
[17:34] Zenos
His case is similar.
[17:37] Zenos
But Red Lung was supposed to have
been wiped out thanks to a cure...
[17:41] Zenos
So why would there be a new infection?
[17:42] Zenos
Then again, maybe there's
only a resemblance...
[17:46] Becker
I must say, that was quite the diagnosis.
[17:52] Becker
It's nice to meet you, underground
healer from the abandoned district.
[17:56] Becker
I'm an elite healer from the
Royal Hospital, Ernardo Becker.
[18:01] Zenos
You're an elite healer
with the Royal Hospital?
[18:04] Becker
Correct, although my case
is a bit unique in that
[18:07] Becker
I'm not particularly good with healing magic.
[18:10] Zenos
Wait, then do you actually have Red Lung?
[18:13] Zenos
It seemed a little different.
[18:14] Becker
Oh, that...
[18:16] Umin
Dr. Becker!
[18:20] Umin
Oh, the healer from before!
[18:20] Zenos
Hey, it's the girl from the inn.
[18:22] Becker
Hello there, Umin!
[18:24] Umin
Don't you "Hello there, Umin" me!
[18:26] Umin
Do you realize how crazy it is
to make yourself seriously sick
[18:29] Umin
and then ask me to follow you
when you're taken to this clinic?!
[18:31] Becker
Well, how else were we supposed to find him?
[18:36] Becker
You know, I thought I had
weakened it enough,
[18:39] Becker
but it's still quite painful.
[18:42] Zenos
What's causing your symptoms?
[18:46] Becker
I took a drug that would cause
symptoms similar to Red Lung.
[18:51] Becker
The locals are quite cautious,
[18:54] Becker
but I thought they'd be willing
to help someone seriously ill.
[18:58] Becker
The effects wear off quickly, so I won't die.
[19:02] Becker
I also took a dose of the antidote to
be on the safe side, so I'll be fine.
[19:05] Zenos
Where in the world did you
find a drug like that?
[19:08] Becker
I made it myself.
[19:11] Becker
It became a necessity in my efforts
to come up with a cure for Red Lung.
[19:15] Zenos
The cure for Red Lung? Then you're—
[19:19] Umin
That's right!
[19:21] Umin
Red Lung, the Thousand-Day
Cough, Crimson Poison!
[19:23] Umin
Dr. Becker has come up with treatments
for a number of diseases,
[19:26] Umin
and was awarded the special rank of
elite healer for his efforts! He's amazing!
[19:33] Becker
It was really nothing special.
[19:36] Becker
When I heard about an elite-class
healer in a black overcoat,
[19:40] Becker
I thought it might've been
someone I used to know...
[19:43] Becker
But it seems I was wrong.
[19:45] Becker
That coat is yours, I assume?
[19:48] Zenos
Yeah. But it originally
belonged to my teacher.
[19:51] Becker
What was your teacher's name?
[19:52] Zenos
Don't know. Never actually told me.
[19:58] Becker
Umin, why don't we bring him
in on this case after all?
[20:03] Umin
Are you sure?
[20:05] Zenos
What case?
[20:07] Becker
I know this is sudden, Zenos,
[20:10] Becker
but would you like to work
at the Royal Hospital?
[20:14] Becker
We're dealing with a bit of a problem, you see.
[20:17] Zenos
Why would you ask a total
stranger like me for help?
[20:19] Becker
It's a rather delicate issue,
[20:21] Becker
the kind where an outsider would
have an easier time taking action.
[20:25] Lily
You guys!
[20:26] Zenos
What are you all doing here?
[20:29] Zophia
The red flag was up, so we rushed down here.
[20:32] Zenos
The flag?
[20:34] Zenos
Oh, red is for emergencies.
[20:36] Zenos
Carmilla must've noticed something was up.
[20:39] Zophia
I'd like to see you try and take Doc away!
[20:42] Lynga
Sir Zenos forbids fighting in the clinic,
[20:45] Lynga
so we won't hurt you in here.
[20:47] Loewe
But take one step outside the building,
[20:50] Loewe
and our men might take
offense with your actions.
[20:55] Becker
This display of unity as
you all try to protect him!
[20:59] Becker
I wonder if any healer has ever
accomplished anything like it!
[21:02] Becker
I think we might need to
reconsider our approach.
[21:07] Becker
Let's make this an official deal...
or rather, a commission.
[21:13] Zenos
Yeah, all right.
[21:15] Zophia
Doc? You sure about this?
[21:17] Zenos
Now that they know about my underground
operation, I need them on my side.
[21:21] Zenos
And I still remember how the central hospital
[21:24] Zenos
distributed the cure for
Red Lung freely in the slums
[21:27] Zenos
back when it was spreading,
saving a lot of lives.
[21:30] Umin
That's right!
[21:31] Umin
There was a lot of opposition, but Dr. Becker
insisted that, to eradicate the disease,
[21:35] Umin
the cure had to be distributed to everyone,
[21:37] Umin
and he went as far as to pay for it himself!
[21:40] Becker
I was only taking the appropriate
scientific approach.
[21:46] Zophia
That was a big help, yeah.
[21:49] Zenos
More importantly, you seem to know my teacher.
[21:52] Becker
If you agree to come to the Royal Hospital,
I'll give you more details in time.
[21:58] Zenos
You called it a commission,
but now you're bargaining again.
[22:02] Zenos
You're a crafty one, aren't you?
[22:04] Becker
I've been called that.
[22:06] Becker
I'm sure the same can be said of you.
[22:09] Zenos
I'm just trying to live life the
way I like it, which is quietly.
[22:13] Becker
Once this matter is taken care of,
[22:15] Becker
you'll have my assistance in that regard.
[22:17] Becker
To make it official:
[22:19] Becker
Welcome to the Royal Hospital,
Zenos the underground healer.

[00:02] Zenos
Well, that sure is impressive...
[00:13] Becker
I still get lost occasionally.
It's just so vast.
[00:17] Becker
Let's head to my study for now.
[00:20] Zenos
The sheer scale of this place
is making me dizzy.
[00:23] Zenos
Are there no darker, danker rooms in here?
[00:26] Umin
You're making yourself sound awfully shady.
[00:29] Zenos
That'd be because I am legitimately shady.
[00:32] Umin
Saying it with such confidence doesn't help.
[00:41] Zenos
Now this is more my speed.
[00:44] Becker
I'm not sure I appreciate my office
being treated like some shady hideout.
[00:49] Becker
Now, regarding what I hired you for, Zenos...
[00:53] Zenos
Something about people
who've been going missing?
[00:55] Becker
Correct.
[00:56] Zenos
Tracking isn't really my thing, y'know.
[00:58] Becker
Don't worry. All I'm asking you to do is go
around and collect what information you can.
[01:02] Becker
Besides, unlike regular students,
special research students are able to attend
[01:07] Becker
all manner of programs in the
Royal Hospital via recommendation.
[01:11] Becker
I imagine being able to look in on a variety
of programs will make it easier to gather intel.
[01:15] Zenos
You're not worried about anyone
finding out my identity?
[01:18] Becker
You'll be operating as Zeno,
who has recently returned from abroad.
[01:23] Zenos
And you think that'll be enough?
[01:25] Becker
When you have an elite
healer vouching for you,
[01:28] Becker
security suddenly becomes less of a concern.
[01:31] Zenos
Which means if I do screw up somehow,
[01:33] Zenos
it'll be your responsibility as
the person who recommended me.
[01:36] Becker
Our fates are tied together, aren't they?
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[03:15] Lily
Welcome back, Zenos!
[03:17] Zenos
What're you doing here, Lily?
[03:19] Umin
Dr. Becker signed off on her presence.
[03:22] Umin
Dorm regulations say that significant others
and family are allowed to cohabitate.
[03:27] Lily
And I'm your wife, Zenos!
[03:29] Umin
No, on paper, you're his little sister.
[03:33] Umin
I'm sure you'll feel more at
ease with someone you know.
[03:36] Umin
We tried to make this as
comfortable as possible.
[03:39] Zenos
I was worried about leaving her behind,
so I'm actually pretty grateful.
[03:43] Umin
I'm glad.
[03:46] Umin
Well, I'll see you tomorrow.
[03:50] Lily
Honey!
[03:52] Zenos
"Honey"?
[03:54] Lily
Do you want to have something
to eat? Or have a bath?
[03:57] Lily
Or...
[03:58] Lily
have me?
[04:00] Zenos
You heard about the "sister" thing, right?
[04:03] Zenos
And who even taught you that?
[04:05] Carmilla
That would be me.
[04:06] Zenos
You're here, too, huh?
[04:08] Zenos
Why, exactly?
[04:09] Carmilla
To be a nuisance.
[04:11] Zenos
Yeah, I figured!
[04:13] Zenos
Did it even occur to you that,
with all these healers around,
[04:16] Zenos
you'll be exorcised if anyone finds you?
[04:20] Carmilla
How can I make myself a nuisance
if I fear that kind of thing?
[04:22] Zenos
That's just who you are, huh?
[04:24] Carmilla
It's not as if there are many capable of
the kind of healing magic you possess.
[04:29] Zenos
Did you say something?
[04:30] Carmilla
Not a thing.
[04:32] Carmilla
"And thus,
[04:33] Carmilla
a minor request from the Royal Hospital
[04:36] Carmilla
ultimately ended up turning
into a major incident!"
[04:40] Zenos
Do you have to make a scary-sounding
prophecy the second you show up?
[04:47] Umin
So, Zenos... or rather, Zeno.
[04:51] Umin
How did orientation go?
[04:53] Zenos
Looks like I'm going to be
running all over the place,
[04:56] Zenos
but I don't even know how to
get a normal healer's license.
[05:02] Umin
Well, let's see...
[05:03] Umin
First, one applies to take the exam
to attend a healer preparatory school,
[05:07] Umin
and if you pass, you spend
a few years learning there.
[05:10] Umin
Afterward, if you pass the healer
exam, you earn your license.
[05:15] Zenos
That sounds like a ton of investment.
[05:17] Zenos
Man, healers are kind of impressive.
[05:19] Umin
Coming from you, that is...
certainly a statement.
[05:25] Umin
After that, you may be assigned
to a branch of the Royal Hospital,
[05:28] Umin
or earn an adventuring license
to work in the field.
[05:31] Umin
Some people also work directly for
the aristocracy or join the military.
[05:35] Umin
Of course, once you're working and
have made a name for yourself,
[05:37] Umin
you have the option of getting
examined and going up in rank.
[05:41] Zenos
An exam to go up in rank?
[05:44] Zenos
And this place is where
that stuff is handled, huh?
[05:47] Umin
Correct. Most of the students
are people here to either
[05:50] Umin
do research or advance their education,
[05:52] Umin
people interested in more advanced healing,
[05:54] Umin
or staff and administration.
[05:58] Zenos
I'm starting to get a headache.
[06:00] Zenos
For now, why don't you tell me
more about our missing people?
[06:04] Umin
Sure.
[06:05] Umin
His name is Afread, and he's
an upperclassman of mine.
[06:08] Umin
He's an advanced healer and the
deputy head of the laboratory.
[06:13] Umin
He's incredibly talented and kind,
as well as considerate.
[06:17] Umin
Dr. Becker even said that Afread was a major
contributor in creating the cure for Red Lung.
[06:25] Zenos
Sounds like someone
who's worth finding, then.
[06:28] Zenos
Do you have any leads?
[06:30] Umin
There is one thing, but...
[06:35] Zenos
Who's that?
[06:36] Umin
Professor Goldran.
[06:38] Umin
He's the vice director
of the Royal Hospital,
[06:40] Umin
and a class seven advanced healer.
[06:43] Zenos
Class seven?
[06:45] Umin
Yes.
[06:46] Umin
Each healing level—beginner,
intermediate, and advanced—
[06:49] Umin
is further split into seven classes.
[06:52] Umin
A class seven advanced healer is as high as
one gets without becoming an elite healer.
[06:57] Zenos
Huh...
[06:59] Zenos
Well, he's got a huge entourage.
Must be a big deal.
[07:02] Umin
He's in the running to be the
next director, after all.
[07:06] Umin
The current director takes a lot of
time off due to his advanced age,
[07:09] Umin
so it's fair to say that the vice director
has the most authority at the moment.
[07:13] Umin
And the Royal Hospital has changed
a bit since he became vice director.
[07:19] Umin
While the wealthy receive enthusiastic care,
[07:22] Umin
there's been increasingly less attention
paid to the other patients.
[07:26] Umin
Professor Goldran seems more interested
in advancing his political agenda
[07:29] Umin
than improving his healing abilities.
[07:32] Umin
There are even rumors that
his class seven promotion
[07:35] Umin
came from making good use of support
he's received from some major nobles.
[07:40] Zenos
Better to stay clear of him, then.
[07:42] Umin
I'm afraid that's not an
option for you, Zeno.
[07:48] Umin
There's a chance he might be
involved in Afread's disappearance.
[07:53] Umin
Being so ambitious, Professor
Goldran seems to want to
[07:55] Umin
gather as many talented individuals
beneath him as possible.
[07:59] Umin
He had called on Afread, on the
pretext of a loan from our lab.
[08:02] Zenos
And Becker was fine with that?
[08:04] Umin
The professor had contributed financially
to the manufacturing of the Red Lung cure,
[08:09] Umin
so the doctor felt indebted.
[08:12] Umin
Plus, Afread himself thought it wouldn't
be bad to expand his horizons.
[08:17] Umin
But a month later, he went missing.
[08:22] Zenos
What did Goldran have to say?
[08:23] Umin
He insists that he has no idea what happened
and is actually inconvenienced by it.
[08:27] Zenos
I get what you're trying to tell me.
[08:30] Zenos
But how do I approach him?
[08:32] Umin
That won't be a problem.
[08:33] Umin
As you distinguish yourself in the assorted
programs, he'll probably contact you.
[08:37] Zenos
You make that sound so easy.
[08:39] Zenos
I have a hard time imagining a
healer from a run-down clinic
[08:42] Zenos
distinguishing himself in the Royal Hospital.
[08:44] Umin
Wait... Zeno, do you not realize—
[08:47] Cresson
Hey, Umin!
[08:49] Cresson
What're you doing, sitting
off to the side like this?
[08:52] Umin
Cresson...
[08:53] Umin
I'm allowed to eat wherever I want, aren't I?
[08:56] Cresson
Whoa, simmer down, now.
[08:58] Cresson
We of the Goldran faction appreciate
you making plenty of room for us.
[09:08] Cresson
You're the special research student, right?
[09:11] Cresson
Do your best not to embarrass
your sponsor, you hear?
[09:17] Zenos
What's his deal?
[09:18] Umin
Don't worry about him.
[09:20] Umin
We're classmates, but ever since he was scouted
by Goldran's group, he's gotten a big head.
[09:25] Zenos
Uh-huh...
[09:26] Zenos
Well, for now, I'm heading to class.
[09:32] Zenos
The structure of the epidermis...
[09:33] Zenos
The distribution of muscle...
[09:35] Zenos
The layout of blood vessels and nerves...
[09:37] Zenos
The positioning of organs...
[09:40] Zenos
Today's the day I pull this off.
[09:45] (Flashback) Zenos
What's the big deal, old timer?!
[09:47] (Flashback) Master
Don't use that power on the dead.
[09:49] (Flashback) Master
It should be saved for the living.
[10:01] (Flashback) Master
You've both improved a
lot over this past year.
[10:03] (Flashback) Master
Looks like I was right about you.
[10:06] (Flashback) Zenos
I'm the one who brought Veritra in, though.
[10:09] (Flashback) Master
And I don't want you two getting cocky
just because you can fix a few wounds.
[10:14] (Flashback) Master
Being able to heal wounds only
makes a healer third-rate.
[10:17] (Flashback) Veritra
Right, Master.
[10:19] (Flashback) Veritra
A healer is second-rate if they
can wholly heal a person...
[10:21] (Flashback) Veritra
And only first-rate if they can
make the world a better place.
[10:24] (Flashback) Veritra
Trust me, I remember. I've heard it so many
times, people have said it to me in my dreams.
[10:28] (Flashback) Master
Really?
[10:30] (Flashback) Master
Well, as long as you get it.
[10:35] Teacher A
We'll now begin the lecture.
[10:38] Teacher A
I specialize in adventurer-adjacent healing.
[10:41] Teacher A
Today's topic is the undead.
[10:43] Teacher A
I'll introduce you to the latest findings on
these monsters that roam the world after death.
[10:48] Zenos
Huh...
[10:50] Zenos
Pretty interesting.
[10:52] Zenos
A lot of it I know from
when I was adventuring,
[10:55] Zenos
but the systematic way it's
organized makes it easy to absorb.
[10:59] Teacher A
Does anyone have any questions?
[11:02] Extra
Are we going to discuss wraiths at all?
[11:04] Teacher A
A good question,
[11:06] Teacher A
but we don't know that much about the
highest-ranked among undead monsters.
[11:11] Teacher A
And that's for two reasons.
[11:13] Teacher A
One is that there aren't
many eyewitness reports.
[11:16] Teacher A
The other is that most parties who
have challenged them were wiped out.
[11:20] Teacher A
The most pertinent thing is that if you
encounter a wraith, the best thing to do is run.
[11:25] Teacher A
The ones that can speak are
particularly dangerous.
[11:28] Teacher A
In general, if a monster is verbal,
you know it's incredibly powerful.
[11:32] Teacher A
And when a wraith is verbal,
it's more than just about anyone can handle.
[11:35] Zenos
Wait, seriously?
[11:37] Zenos
I've got a talking wraith kicking
back in my room right now...
[11:40] Zenos
I probably shouldn't mention that.
[11:44] Teacher A
As we wrap up, have any among
you fought the undead before?
[11:48] Teacher A
If you have, I'd like you to share
your experience with the others.
[11:54] Cresson
My name is Cresson Wembley, and I'm
a member of the Goldran Laboratory.
[11:58] Cresson
I was an adventurer for a few years,
and have taken down around 30 ghosts.
[12:08] Cresson
How about you, special research student?
[12:12] Zenos
Huh?
[12:15] Zenos
I need to make a name for myself,
[12:18] Zenos
but standing out too much is a bad idea.
[12:20] Zenos
I can probably take out 50 at once, but...
[12:22] Zenos
Might be smarter to just match his story.
[12:25] Zenos
Uh, I'm at around 30, too.
[12:29] Cresson
Don't lie, man.
[12:30] Zenos
I'm not. Really, 30 is about
the most I can beat at once.
[12:34] Cresson
Seriously, you don't need to... Wait, "at once"?
[12:39] Zenos
Wait, you didn't mean 30 at once?
[12:42] Teacher A
You're Zeno, the special
research student, correct?
[12:45] Teacher A
Could you explain what you mean?
[12:48] Zenos
There's not much to explain.
[12:50] Zenos
If you go to the underground labyrinth,
that place is crawling with ghosts,
[12:53] Zenos
and the best way to deal with them is to
cast Heal on as many as you can at once.
[12:57] Teacher A
The underground labyrinth...
of Garminton, you mean?!
[13:01] Zenos
I think that's what the name was, yeah.
[13:04] Teacher A
Zeno. Even gold-class parties
hesitate to set foot in that place.
[13:13] Cresson
What the hell is his deal?
[13:15] Cresson
There's no way that was true.
[13:17] Cresson
I don't like him.
[13:25] Cresson
You said your name was Zeno, right?
[13:27] Cresson
Don't just spout nonsense
because you want to stand out.
[13:30] Zenos
I'm actually trying to avoid
standing out, to be honest.
[13:33] Fasso
We'll now begin our lecture
on healing magic circles.
[13:37] Zenos
If I'm being honest, I don't
understand magic circles.
[13:41] Zenos
If I have time to spend
drawing that kind of thing,
[13:43] Zenos
I figure it's faster to just heal my patient.
[13:48] Fasso
Now, if one of you would come up here
and draw your best magic circle.
[13:54] Cresson
Allow me, sir.
[14:01] Fasso
It looks pretty good.
[14:02] Fasso
I don't suppose you'd like
to join my laboratory?
[14:06] Cresson
Oh, no, I already work for Professor Goldran.
[14:11] Cresson
Professor, I believe the special research
student would like to show what he can do.
[14:18] Zenos
My teacher showed me one
magic circle a long time ago.
[14:22] Zenos
That's the only one I know,
so I guess that's what I'm drawing.
[14:27] Cresson
I've never seen a magic
circle that looks like that.
[14:30] Cresson
Looks like the gold plating's come off the
big-talking special research student already!
[14:34] Fasso
Th-This magic circle...
[14:36] Fasso
This goes beyond simple healing magic.
[14:38] Fasso
The cardinal directions are
marked by infinite spirals...
[14:42] Fasso
Is this for regeneration?
[14:44] Fasso
But something's still different...
[14:46] Zenos
Oh, that's actually it,
but it's a real weird one.
[14:50] Zenos
Like, if the patient's lost multiple fingers,
it'll randomly grow one back.
[14:55] Fasso
S-Say what?!
[14:56] Fasso
Conditional branching and random sampling?
[14:59] Fasso
I had no idea you could cram that
much into a single magic circle!
[15:02] Fasso
But this would require a
massive amount of mana.
[15:04] Fasso
Surely no human could activate it.
[15:06] Zenos
I can, though.
[15:10] Zenos
It's honestly not that useful.
[15:12] Zenos
Regenerating a finger
with magic is way faster.
[15:15] Fasso
I have no idea what you're
saying, and I don't care.
[15:18] Fasso
More than anything, I want
you to join my laboratory!
[15:22] Zenos
Uh, no, I kinda have stuff to take care of...
[15:25] Cresson
What is this? What the hell is he?!
[15:31] 2nd Secretary
There's something I think
you should know, Professor.
[15:34] Goldran
What is it?
[15:36] 2nd Secretary
There are rumors of an interesting
individual in the school.
[15:39] 2nd Secretary
A healer capable of defeating
30 ghosts at once.
[15:43] 2nd Secretary
His name is Zeno, and he's this
year's special research student.
[15:46] Goldran
A special research student?
[15:49] Goldran
Do you believe our faction is so
insignificant that some random
[15:53] Goldran
special research student
should be allowed to join?
[15:55] 2nd Secretary
My apologies, sir!
[15:57] 3rd Secretary
Pardon me, Professor.
[15:58] 3rd Secretary
I have a report. There are multiple
reports of undead at the Suula graveyard.
[16:03] Goldran
Assign someone to deal with the matter.
[16:06] Goldran
In fact, send the special research student
who can take out 30 ghosts in one blow.
[16:11] Goldran
If he proves to live up to his claims,
[16:13] Goldran
we may just have a spot for him.
[16:16] 3rd Secretary
Very good, sir.
[16:20] Lily
You're going to fight some undead, Zenos?
[16:22] Zenos
Yeah.
[16:24] Carmilla
Exorcising the undead, eh?
[16:26] Carmilla
That certainly means trouble.
[16:27] Zenos
Tell me about it.
[16:28] Carmilla
I meant for the undead.
[16:31] Lily
If a bunch have shown up... Undead really
do tend to gather at graveyards, huh?
[16:36] Zenos
Since the church oversees this one,
this kind of thing is rare, apparently.
[16:41] Zenos
They're not sure what caused it.
[16:44] Carmilla
Go on, enjoy your meal.
[16:46] Zenos
You weren't the one who made it. It was Lily.
[16:48] Lily
Are you going to eat, Carmilla?
[16:50] Carmilla
I'll take extra chicken, if you don't mind.
[16:52] Carmilla
And if you give me any carrots,
I'll curse you and your descendants.
[16:55] Zenos
You have no trouble eating solid matter?
[16:58] Carmilla
All things are possible with enough spirit!
[17:01] Zenos
I get the feeling if I just wrote
down my observations on you,
[17:04] Zenos
it'd be enough to earn me a degree.
[17:12] Cresson
Ch-Charge!
[17:14] Cresson
Follow me!
[17:16] Extras
Root of all life, by your
blessing, grant amelioration.
[17:19] Extras
Heal!
[17:23] Zenos
They're being pretty thorough,
only taking out one or two at a time.
[17:26] Zenos
It seems kinda inefficient, though.
[17:28] Umin
I can only imagine it'd
seem that way to you.
[17:31] Cresson
Damn it! We can't keep up with these numbers!
[17:34] Cresson
It's no good!
[17:37] Zenos
High Heal.
[17:43] Zenos
That was great.
[17:44] Zenos
They were all gathered in one spot.
That made it easier to deal with them.
[17:47] Umin
I didn't quite expect... this.
[17:51] Cresson
Did you see that?! This is what Cresson
of the Goldran faction is capable of!
[17:56] Extras
Was that you, Cresson?
[17:57] Extras
That was some amazing healing magic.
[17:59] Umin
No, Zeno was the one who...
[18:01] Cresson
Huh? As if a special research student
could be capable of something like that!
[18:06] Cresson
Go on, report our success and my
contribution to your teachers!
[18:10] Cresson
You're dismissed!
[18:11] Umin
Cresson, wait!
[18:14] Cresson
Listen up! There's no way I accept you!
[18:17] Zenos
Okay.
[18:19] Cresson
What the hell is your deal?!
[18:21] Cresson
Why'd they make me observe this special research
student freak who showed up out of nowhere?
[18:26] Zenos
Observe?
[18:27] Cresson
Forget it! I'm done!
[18:33] Zenos
The undead aren't dealt with yet, though.
[18:36] Umin
What do you mean?
[18:40] Zenos
It's coming.
[18:50] Extra A
A zombie... king?
[18:52] Extra B
Why is such a dangerous
monster suddenly popping up?!
[18:55] Extra A
Cresson! You're our only hope!
[18:58] Extra A
Use some incredible healing
magic to slow it down!
[19:00] Cresson
S-Sure...
[19:02] Umin
They seem to have high expectations for you,
[19:05] Umin
Cresson of the Goldran faction.
[19:08] Cresson
Umin, you jerk! We're classmates,
and you're not gonna help?!
[19:11] Umin
What? You need help from the likes of me?
[19:14] Umin
You, Cresson of the Goldran faction?
[19:18] Zenos
Yeah, I know.
[19:20] Zenos
You don't want me interfering, right?
[19:23] Cresson
Oh... well... glad you get it.
[19:26] Cresson
Hurry up and call for reinforcements!
[19:28] Cresson
I'll hold it off until then...
[19:33] Cresson
H-Here I come! Say your prayers!
[19:37] Zenos
Pretty bold of him,
but why's his voice cracking?
[19:40] Umin
It's almost a textbook example
of getting what you deserve.
[19:43] Cresson
Light of life that dwells deep within, hear my
prayers, and let your blessing shine forth here!
[19:51] Cresson
High Heal!
[19:58] Cresson
That was my best magic, and it...
[20:09] Cresson
You see that, peanut gallery?!
[20:11] Cresson
We're evenly matched...
[20:12] Cresson
No, I managed to strike
first, so I have the edge!
[20:15] Cresson
It didn't lay a finger on me!
[20:19] Umin
I suppose this explains why
so many have been appearing.
[20:22] Umin
Undead are drawn to more powerful undead.
[20:25] Umin
This zombie king must be the root of all this.
[20:28] Zenos
The zombie king...
[20:30] Zenos
Something seems off about that.
[20:32] Zenos
I also wonder why he's not
using healing magic anymore.
[20:37] Umin
Well, he was lying before.
[20:39] Zenos
Wait, he was?
[20:40] Umin
Yes.
[20:41] Umin
But I'd rather you didn't help him.
[20:44] Umin
He's earned a bit of pain
for his shenanigans.
[20:47] Zenos
You say that, but I can tell
you're worried about him.
[20:50] Umin
Wh-What makes you say that?!
[20:53] Zenos
The fact that you stuck
around kinda suggests it.
[20:56] Umin
W-Well, someone should collect his remains...
[21:00] Umin
W-We are classmates, after all.
[21:04] Umin
But he's just been rolling around
instead of fighting, hasn't he?
[21:11] Cresson
Root of all life, by your
blessing, grant amelioration...
[21:16] Cresson
Heal.
[21:24] Cresson
L-Let me go!
[21:26] Umin
Cresson!
[21:29] Cresson
H-Help!
[21:39] Zenos
Mega Heal!
[21:54] Cresson
Wh-Who asked you to help me?
[21:56] Umin
Well, you did. Quite loudly.
[21:58] Umin
You were bawling, going, "Help!"
[22:01] Cresson
Kn-Knock it off! I was not!
[22:02] Umin
No, I heard it quite clearly.
[22:04] Zenos
Drawn to more powerful undead...
[22:06] Cresson
I would've done just fine without your help!
[22:08] Zenos
Look, uh... Sorry.
[22:08] Umin
If you hadn't gotten so full of yourself—
[22:13] Lily
Are you okay, Carmilla? Are you sick?
[22:18] Carmilla
Quite the jest, suggesting that the greatest
of the undead such as myself could get sick.

could get sick.
[00:13] Lily
Well, if you're sure.
[00:15] Carmilla
Someone might have me on their mind.

You must be popular!

You little flatterer!

SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[02:09] Carmilla
I see.
[02:10] Carmilla
Undead being drawn to stronger undead, eh?
[02:16] Zenos
You knew about that?
[02:17] Carmilla
I did not, but it's no surprise.
[02:19] Carmilla
I suppose my overwhelmingly charismatic
aura must have also overflowed!
[02:24] Carmilla
Kneel down, human fools!
[02:30] Carmilla
What now? Will you kick me out?
[02:33] Zenos
Nah.
[02:34] Zenos
Given how you affect your surroundings,
it's probably safer to keep you by my side.
[02:40] Lily
I... I want him to say that about me, too!
[02:45] Lily
"Lily. Stay by my side."
[02:52] Zenos
Carmilla? Something wrong?
[02:52] Lily
It's 'cuz I'm Zenos's ideal wife!
[02:54] Carmilla
It's nothing.
[02:57] Carmilla
Asking a wraith, an entity despised
by all, to stay by your side...
[03:00] Carmilla
You are as odd as they come.
[03:04] Carmilla
Very well. I will dedicate all my
energy to being a nuisance, then.
[03:07] Zenos
Did you actually think that sounded cool?
[03:13] 2nd Secretary
Cresson, you seem to have performed quite
wonderfully during the undead extermination.
[03:18] Cresson
W-Well, sure!
[03:20] 2nd Secretary
The other students who joined you
have been singing your praises.
[03:24] 2nd Secretary
It's impressive.
[03:28] 2nd Secretary
That said, the fact that
you did such an amazing job
[03:31] 2nd Secretary
means that the special research student,
Zeno, failed to live up to expectations.
[03:36] 2nd Secretary
Continue to dedicate yourself
to the professor's cause.
[03:39] 2nd Secretary
You're free to go, Cresson.
[03:42] Cresson
Right...
[03:45] Cresson
Actually...
[03:46] Cresson
I was awesome,
[03:48] Cresson
but he—the special research student—
was actually really impressive.
[03:52] Cresson
The hordes of undead and zombie king...
He's the one who defeated them.
[03:57] 2nd Secretary
What are you saying?
[04:00] Cresson
The truth, sir. I saw it happen.
[04:05] Cresson
If you'll excuse me.
[04:10] Cresson
Damn it!
[04:12] Cresson
We're even now, special research student.
[04:18] Becker
Zenos! The Goldran Research
Lab is calling for you.
[04:22] Becker
Looks like you'll be invited to his faction.
[04:24] Umi
That's amazing!
[04:25] Zenos
Really?
[04:27] Becker
I have to say, I'm impressed.
[04:29] Becker
I guess your undead extermination
must've caught their eye.
[04:32] Zenos
Huh...
[04:34] Becker
Are you surprised?
[04:36] Zenos
I kinda thought the story was
that Cresson took care of that.
[04:40] Becker
I'm not clear on the specifics, but...
[04:43] Zenos
Guess this means we've cleared
the first big obstacle.
[04:45] Becker
I'd think of it more as
reaching the starting line.
[04:48] Becker
You still have to be
interviewed by the professor.
[04:51] Zenos
What? There's still more?
[04:54] Zenos
I was hoping this'd be more casual.
[04:56] Becker
Professor Goldran is a major mover
[04:59] Becker
who commands the majority of
support in the Royal Hospital.
[05:02] Becker
He doesn't meet with just anyone.
[05:04] Zenos
The more organized they are,
the more of a pain they are, huh?
[05:07] Zenos
I don't think I'm cut out for this stuff.
[05:09] Becker
And Professor Goldran is exceptionally
particular when it comes to authority and honors.
[05:14] Zenos
But isn't he an advanced healer?
[05:17] Zenos
Doesn't that make you, an
elite healer, more important?
[05:20] Becker
Unfortunately, political power
and titles don't equate.
[05:24] Becker
Especially in my case, given that
I earned my title via developing drugs.
[05:30] Zenos
Well, for now, I should probably
go answer their call.
[05:34] Becker
I'll be praying for your success.
[05:36] Umin
You've got this, Zenos!
[05:42] 2nd Secertary
Welcome, Zeno.
[05:43] 2nd Secertary
I am the professor's second secretary.
[05:47] Goldran
You're the special research student?
[05:50] Goldran
What can you do?
[05:52] Zenos
Healing's about the only thing I can do.
[05:54] Goldran
How small...
[05:56] Goldran
Any healer can do that.
[06:00] Goldran
If you have power, then
you should aim higher.
[06:03] Goldran
You should know that healers hold
special sway in our country.
[06:08] Zenos
Wait, they do?
[06:10] Goldran
You could even say this country's
history is the history of healers...
[06:14] Goldran
Yet, at the moment, the ruling class
reaps the majority of the benefits.
[06:17] Goldran
I intend to join them in the near future.
[06:21] Goldran
This will ensure that our faction
earns proportionate gains.
[06:25] Goldran
Everyone deserves treatment equal
to what they are capable of.
[06:29] Goldran
That includes healers.
[06:31] Goldran
Not all life is equal in value.
[06:33] Goldran
It stands to reason that the wealthy
[06:35] Goldran
and the impoverished would
receive differing quality of care.
[06:39] Goldran
Could you reproduce the magic circle
you drew in your class right now?
[06:43] Goldran
I'd like to see for myself whether
or not you'll be of any use.
[06:48] Goldran
And if you prove valuable,
[06:50] Goldran
I'm prepared to welcome you.
[07:01] Zenos
What exactly does this prove, though?
[07:03] Goldran
The depth of your healing magic knowledge.
[07:06] Goldran
And whether or not said knowledge
has questionable roots.
[07:13] Goldran
There are several different schools
of magic circle conception,
[07:16] Goldran
and with healing magic, there are certain
principles that need to be minded.
[07:20] Goldran
Any signs that they are not is an indicator
that you did not receive an official education.
[07:26] Goldran
Those who work for me must prove to
be as legitimate as they are capable.
[07:33] 2nd Sec
What do you think, Professor?
[07:35] Goldran
A fascinating magic circle.
[07:38] Goldran
I've never seen these
particular applications.
[07:41] Goldran
And it does a fine job of minding
the fundamentals, as well.
[07:47] Goldran
You may join the lab starting tomorrow.
[08:04] Zenos
What is all this?
[08:06] Cresson
Look sharp, man!
[08:07] Cresson
Hurry and line up!
[08:10] Zenos
It's you...
[08:11] Cresson
I'm Cresson, your senior in this group!
[08:13] Cresson
Looks like you're a member of
the Goldran Lab starting today.
[08:17] Cresson
Which means you're gonna
have to follow the rules!
[08:19] Zenos
Sure, all right.
[08:21] Cresson
I hope you realize the only reason you're a
part of this is because I recommended you!
[08:27] Cresson
You basically owe me your life!
[08:29] Zenos
Really?
[08:30] Zenos
Well, I am grateful. Why'd you do it, though?
[08:35] Cresson
Isn't it obvious?
[08:36] Cresson
I can use you to make my
way up in the faction!
[08:40] Zenos
You're an honest guy, huh?
[08:42] Zenos
What's with the procession, anyway?
[08:45] Cresson
It's for Professor Goldran's general rounds.
[08:47] Cresson
He goes around visiting the patients
[08:50] Cresson
with an entourage that he's at the head of.
[08:54] Zenos
So... until I showed up, you
were at the back of the line?
[08:57] Cresson
Sh-Shut up!
[08:59] Cresson
Just watch! I'm going to claw my way up!
[09:03] Zenos
Okay. Good luck with that.
[09:05] Cresson
Don't give me that pitying look!
[09:12] Zenos
Does he really need all these people?
[09:14] Cresson
It's all about creating an impression.
[09:16] Cresson
Besides, the professor only visits
people from the upper-upper crust.
[09:21] Zenos
I wanna get a better look.
[09:22] Cresson
Whoa! Where are you going?!
[09:25] Zenos
I need to know more about Goldran
[09:27] Zenos
if I intend to find anything
out about the disappearances.
[09:31] Patient
Dr. Goldran, the pain has been so bad since
I twisted my ankle on the side of the bed...
[09:38] Goldran
It's a sprain.
[09:41] Goldran
Three should be sufficient for this.
[09:44] Zenos
What is that?
[09:46] Goldran
Woven into a single ray of light,
[09:49] Goldran
let the lost embers of life be your guidance,
[09:52] Goldran
so that they may find their way home.
[09:55] Goldran
Give Heal.
[10:01] Patient
The pain's gone!
[10:03] Patient
Thank you so much!
[10:06] Cresson
Dude, don't just wander off!
[10:10] Zenos
Sorry. But what was that magic
where he used multiple healers?
[10:15] Cresson
You don't even know that?
[10:17] Cresson
The professor's specialty
is health transfer magic.
[10:20] Zenos
Health transfer magic?
[10:23] Cresson
It's basically magic that transfers
life force between people to heal.
[10:26] Cresson
Pretty revolutionary, right?
[10:28] Cresson
It can provide major results even if
the caster isn't particularly powerful.
[10:33] Cresson
Say you've got someone who's injured.
[10:35] Cresson
You transfer someone else's
life force into them
[10:38] Cresson
in order to boost their recovery.
That's health transfer magic.
[10:42] Cresson
The worse the injury, the
more life force it requires,
[10:45] Cresson
so you need to prepare a larger number of
[10:47] Cresson
healthy people to transfer the necessary
bit of health to the patient.
[10:50] Cresson
That way the patient is healed,
[10:52] Cresson
and the burden on the donors is minimal.
[10:55] Cresson
They only have to deal
with a bit of exhaustion.
[10:58] Zenos
That is interesting.
[11:01] Zenos
It explains why he wants so
many people for his faction.
[11:04] Cresson
That's a part of it, yeah, but the biggest
reason is probably the election for director.
[11:07] Cresson
There are rumors that the current director,
Shalbard, is going to retire soon.
[11:11] Cresson
So he's trying to secure votes in
preparation for the next election.
[11:16] Cresson
At this rate, Professor Goldran's
basically guaranteed to win.
[11:20] Cresson
And if I ride the coattails of a winner,
it'll mean a path straight to the top.
[11:24] Zenos
I appreciate you filling me in like this.
[11:26] Zenos
You're nicer than I figured.
[11:28] Cresson
D-Don't be stupid!
I'm just trying to use you!
[11:32] Zenos
Since you're feeling so generous with info,
[11:34] Zenos
I don't suppose you know
someone named Afread, do you?
[11:36] Cresson
Afread?
[11:38] Cresson
The idiot who went missing despite the
professor's hopes for him. Not a fan.
[11:43] Zenos
Did anything seem off before he went missing?
[11:45] Cresson
Hell if I know.
[11:46] Cresson
He was invited to dinner and
vanished right afterward.
[11:50] Zenos
Dinner?
[11:51] Cresson
The professor occasionally has dinner parties, and he invites all his favorites to them.
[11:55] Cresson
Getting the invite basically guarantees
you're one of his people in the future.
[11:59] Cresson
Damn it! So jealous!
[12:04] Becker
This has all been very enlightening.
[12:06] Zenos
Well, that about does it for me, right?
[12:09] Becker
Oh, hardly!
[12:11] Becker
This is a good hint, but still
far from the evidence we need.
[12:15] Becker
The best thing to do would be to have you
become one of Professor Goldran's favorites
[12:19] Becker
so that you could infiltrate
one of these dinner parties.
[12:22] Becker
Pull that off and I'll pay you extra.
[12:25] Becker
In addition to making sure,
[12:27] Becker
as we originally agreed, that your
underground operations aren't interrupted.
[12:31] Zenos
I was kind of hoping to go home soon...
[12:34] Zenos
However this plays out, once I'm done,
[12:36] Zenos
I want you to tell me about my teacher.
[12:39] Becker
Of course. Everything I know.
[12:46] Becker
Zenos, I have a question for you.
[12:48] Becker
You see these coins scattered
on the floor, yes?
[12:53] Becker
Now, I'd like to pick them up,
[12:56] Becker
but unfortunately, between
research and meetings,
[12:58] Becker
I don't have the necessary time.
[13:00] Becker
So, if it was you, which
would you pick up first?
[13:06] Becker
Do you believe that lives
should be valued equally?
[13:11] Umin
Are you in, Dr. Becker?
[13:13] Umin
Oh, Zenos is here, too.
[13:16] Umin
Am I interrupting?
[13:18] Becker
Not at all. Just chatting a bit.
[13:21] Becker
I've got a meeting, right?
[13:23] Becker
Where was it again?
[13:24] Umin
Ugh... I'll show you the way.
[13:27] Becker
I'm always in your debt.
[13:30] Becker
I'm counting on you.
[13:36] Zenos
I'll do what I can.
[13:47] Lynga
Lynga might be a genius!
[13:52] Lynga
Now I can sneak into Sir Zenos's bed on
my own and sniff it as much as I want!
[13:59] Lynga
Zophia?!
[13:59] Zophia
Lynga?!
[14:01] Lynga
What are you doing here?!
[14:03] Zophia
I was gonna ask you the same thing.
[14:06] Zophia
Oh, I see.
[14:07] Zophia
You came to clean up, too?
[14:09] Lynga
You, too?
[14:12] Loewe
I'm a genius! Who else would think of
cleaning the clinic while Zenos was out?!
[14:18] Zophia
I kinda saw this coming, y'know.
[14:21] Lynga
And a broken door means even more work...
[14:25] Loewe
I guess the two of you showed up ahead of me.
[14:39] Zophia
This is looking good! I did a fine job!
[14:42] Lynga
Lynga did over half the work!
[14:45] Loewe
And I have perfectly repaired the door!
[14:47] Both
You're the one who broke it!
[14:58] Cresson
I'm providing you the opportunity
to help my glorious self!
[15:02] Cresson
That means looking after the
professor's beloved pup!
[15:05] Cresson
You just have to watch her.
[15:09] Zenos
Uh... you do more stuff for
the lab than this, right?
[15:13] Cresson
Of course I do!
[15:15] Cresson
Other than walks, I also provide
Madam Milk with her meals!
[15:18] Cresson
In addition to washing
and grooming... and more!
[15:22] Zenos
Not exactly the answer I was expecting.
[15:24] Cresson
The professor's meeting with the seven
major nobles that he's currying favor with.
[15:29] Cresson
Man, that's so cool!
[15:31] Cresson
Then again, if I climb my way
up the faction's ladder,
[15:34] Cresson
I could be in the same position soon enough!
[15:38] Zenos
You're hoping for a promotion, then?
[15:41] Cresson
Of course I am!
[15:42] Cresson
Once I become a big deal
and join the upper crust,
[15:45] Cresson
I'll have good food, good women,
and peons to push around!
[15:50] Cresson
That's why I'm working hard to be a healer!
[15:53] Zenos
I thought being a healer was
about, y'know, healing people.
[15:57] Cresson
Ideally, maybe.
[15:59] Cresson
I mean, sure, even I had a time when
[16:01] Cresson
I dreamed about saving a bunch of
lives or curing a terrible disease,
[16:05] Cresson
but healing magic isn't all-powerful.
[16:08] Cresson
There are things it just can't do.
[16:10] Cresson
Y'know what's more reliable? Money and power!
[16:15] Cresson
What?
[16:16] Bons
Hey, Cresson!
[16:18] Bons
Looking after Goldran's
high and mighty mutt again?
[16:21] Cresson
Mr. Bons!
[16:23] Cresson
I'm doing what I can, yes.
[16:25] Bons
Damn it all...
[16:27] Bons
That is one smug-looking mutt.
[16:30] Bons
Ticks me off.
[16:31] Cresson
Don't let the professor
hear you say that, sir!
[16:35] Bons
Takes more than sucking up
to get anywhere in life, boy.
[16:39] Zenos
Who was that?
[16:40] Cresson
Professor Goldran's first secretary.
[16:43] Zenos
That guy?
[16:44] Cresson
Unbelievable, right?
[16:45] Cresson
They're apparently old friends,
but he barely does any work,
[16:49] Cresson
and he's usually drunk all day long.
[16:51] Cresson
Can't believe he gets the spot of first
secretary, even if they do go way back.
[16:57] Bons
Hey, Cresson!
[16:58] Cresson
Y-Yes?! You called for me?
[17:01] Bons
You can have this booze!
[17:06] Cresson
Oh, no! Madam Milk!
[17:14] Cresson
Milk! Milk!
[17:30] Cresson
Light of life that dwells deep within,
[17:32] Cresson
hear my prayers, and let your
blessing shine forth here!
[17:35] Cresson
High Heal!
[17:38] Cresson
It... It's not enough.
[17:41] Zenos
She should be fine once the
bleeding's stopped, right?
[17:44] Cresson
That's not enough!
[17:46] Cresson
There'll be scars!
[17:49] Cresson
The professor loves Madam
Milk's beautiful fur!
[17:53] Cresson
I'm done for...
[17:55] Cresson
I'm sorry for making a mess
of you, too, Madam Milk...
[18:00] Zenos
Heal.
[18:01] Cresson
What do you think you're doing?!
[18:03] Zenos
What's it look like? Casting healing magic.
[18:06] Cresson
It's pointless! Maybe you have enough
magic output to take out a zombie king,
[18:10] Cresson
but the kind of finesse needed
to regenerate skin is...
[18:14] Cresson
She's fixed?!
[18:15] Cresson
There's no trace of a scar!
[18:18] Zenos
Isn't that the kind of magic Heal is?
[18:20] Zenos
I fixed the ribs that had been cracked,
too, so you can continue the walk,
[18:24] Zenos
but I'd recommend letting
her rest for today.
[18:29] Cresson
That's not the kind of magic Heal is, man.
[18:32] Cresson
Making yourself sound like an elite-grade...
[18:37] Cresson
Stop right there, special research student!
Looking after Madam Milk is my job!
[18:50] Umin
Hello, Zenos... er, Zeno.
[18:53] Zenos
What's up?
[18:55] Umin
Well... if you don't mind,
would you join me for a walk?
[19:01] Zenos
A walk?
[19:12] Zenos
Is there something you need to tell me?
[19:14] Umin
Well... it's...
[19:18] Umin
I... wanted to apologize.
[19:21] Umin
It's just...
[19:24] Umin
If I were more capable,
[19:26] Umin
I would've been able to get
Professor Goldran's attention.
[19:30] Umin
Then you wouldn't have
been dragged into this...
[19:34] Umin
I feel guilty.
[19:37] Zenos
And you asked me out for
a walk to tell me that?
[19:39] Umin
Yes. I'm sure an apology from me
doesn't amount to much, but...
[19:45] Zenos
I'll be taking payment for my efforts
from Becker, so it's all good.
[19:49] Zenos
Don't let it bother you.
[19:50] Umin
Be that as it may...
[19:52] Zenos
Besides, without opportunities like these,
[19:55] Zenos
I never would've set foot
inside the Royal Hospital.
[19:58] Zenos
I never would've had a chance
to learn more about my teacher.
[20:01] Zenos
There's plenty for me to gain.
[20:03] Zenos
So you honestly don't need to worry.
[20:06] Umin
Still, if there's anything
I can do, just ask.
[20:10] Umin
Come to think of it, what kind
of person was your teacher?
[20:15] Zenos
I honestly don't have much of a clue.
[20:17] Zenos
He seemed kinda shady, but he taught me how to
read and write, and about the outside world,
[20:22] Zenos
to say nothing about diseases, injuries,
and magic. Taught me a whole bunch.
[20:27] Zenos
I basically owe him my life.
[20:29] Umin
That sounds a bit like Dr. Becker and myself.
[20:33] Zenos
You owe him your life?
[20:35] Umin
Certainly!
[20:36] Umin
When I decided to become a
healer, he mentored me closely.
[20:42] Umin
Granted, his dedication to research
caused his girlfriend to leave him,
[20:45] Umin
so I'm basically looking after him...
[20:48] Zenos
How do you even know him?
[20:50] Umin
Did I not mention it?
[20:51] Umin
He's my mother's little brother.
[20:54] Umin
My uncle, in other words.
[20:56] Umin
But I didn't amount to much,
either in magic or in research.
[21:00] Zenos
What kind of research are you doing, anyway?
[21:03] Umin
To put it simply, the storage of medication.
[21:07] Umin
At what temperature, what humidity, and
other factors for how they should be stored.
[21:12] Umin
It's pretty boring.
[21:14] Zenos
It is.
[21:17] Zenos
But the most important things in
life tend to be the boring ones.
[21:21] Umin
Zenos...
[21:23] Zenos
That's just something my teacher told me.
[21:26] Umin
I was trying to apologize, and
you ended up cheering me up.
[21:31] Zenos
Sometimes it's best to rely on other people.
[21:35] Zenos
I get plenty of help in my daily life, too.
[21:38] Zenos
I can barely even get out of
bed on my own in the morning.
[21:41] Umin
You're an interesting person, Zenos.
[21:45] Carmilla
Another prospective wife, eh?
[21:47] Umin
What was that?
[21:49] Zenos
Don't worry about it.
I think we were followed.
[21:51] Umin
By who?
[21:53] Carmilla
And yet, not as exciting
as I had hoped. One star.
[21:57] Zenos
Quit scoring people.
[22:10] Cresson
Please! You've gotta help me!
[22:13] Zenos
Uh...
[22:15] Cresson
I'm in a real bind here!
[22:16] Cresson
Please help me!
[22:18] Carmilla
Now, this looks interesting! Three stars.
[22:22] Zenos
Seriously, no more scores, okay?

Welcome back, Professor.
[00:09] 2nd Sec
How did your lunch meeting
with Lord Fennel go?
[00:16] 2nd Sec
You look upset. Was there a problem?
[00:19] Goldran
Do you really think I'd cause a problem
during a lunch with Lord Fennel?
[00:25] 2nd Sec
No, sir. I apologize.
[00:31] (Flashback) Fennel
I'd like you to examine
my daughter, Professor.
[00:34] (Flashback) Fennel
A week ago, she developed
a rash on her face.
[00:37] (Flashback) Fennel
I assumed it would get better on its own,
[00:39] (Flashback) Fennel
but it seems to be getting bigger over time.
[00:43] (Flashback) Goldran
That may be a case of Odd Face.
[00:47] (Flashback) Fennel
Odd Face?
[00:49] (Flashback) Fennel
Professor, is there
anything that can be done?
[00:52] (Flashback) Fennel
I owe you so much already!
[00:54] (Flashback) Fennel
I'm sure you can manage this.
[00:57] Goldran
It's not life-threatening,
[00:59] Goldran
but if the growth is at
the point that it's visible,
[01:02] Goldran
that means it's taken root deep already.
[01:04] Goldran
Considering the amount of cutting that will
be necessary, it's likely to leave a scar.
[01:11] Goldran
With enough donors and
health transfer magic,
[01:14] Goldran
the skin can be regenerated
without trouble...
[01:18] Goldran
but Lord Fennel said his daughter
would absolutely refuse
[01:21] Goldran
to let too many people see her face.
[01:24] Goldran
I can count on one assistant,
maybe two at most.
[01:32] Goldran
At times like this,
[01:33] Goldran
it's best to soothe my nerves
by gazing at my dear Milk.
[01:43] Bons
I heard your darling pup
got run over by a carriage.
[01:46] Goldran
What?!
[01:48] Goldran
Are you behind this?!
[01:51] Goldran
It's about time you learned your place!
[01:53] Bons
It wasn't me. And I don't
appreciate the insinuation.
[01:56] Bons
Besides, I heard the dog-sitter healed
her and she's all better, anyway.
[02:08] Goldran
I confirmed with my secretary on the way,
[02:10] Goldran
and it seems she really was in an accident.
[02:17] Goldran
Someone capable of healing an injury
completely, with no trace of scarring...
[02:26] Goldran
Good girl, good girl!

[04:02] Cresson
I'm in a real bind here!
[04:04] Cresson
Please help me!
[04:10] Cresson
I was asked to heal the daughter
of one of the seven major nobles.
[04:13] Cresson
You know about Odd Face, right?
[04:15] Cresson
She's come down with that.
[04:17] Cresson
Don't tell anyone!
[04:18] Zenos
You just told us...
[04:19] Zenos
Why the panic? If it's a benign growth,
she could leave it and be perfectly fine.
[04:23] Cresson
Even I know that!
[04:25] Cresson
But she won't attend any of her social
functions with that thing on her face!
[04:28] Zenos
Then why not cut it out?
[04:30] Cresson
It's rooted too deep.
The excision would cover a huge area!
[04:33] Cresson
Even textbooks say the scarring is so bad
[04:36] Cresson
that Odd Face is better left untreated!
[04:38] Cresson
If I mess up the face of one of
the seven nobles, I'm done for!
[04:43] Zenos
Why don't you just make
sure there's no scar, then?
[04:47] Cresson
Talking to you always makes
me question my sanity...
[04:50] Cresson
It's not that easy for
normal people, you know!
[04:53] Umin
I'm curious as to why such a lofty
request was made of you, Cresson.
[04:59] Cresson
Because Professor Goldran has finally
realized how brilliant I am!
[05:06] Cresson
That's a lie! Don't give
me that frosty look!
[05:09] Cresson
Aren't we classmates?!
[05:11] Cresson
The professor asked for me after
what happened with Madam Milk!
[05:15] Umin
So, just like with the zombie king,
[05:16] Umin
you stole the credit for something?
[05:19] Cresson
It's not like that.
[05:20] Cresson
I told the second secretary that the
special research student handled it.
[05:25] Umin
You could always just tell him
that was the case again,
[05:27] Umin
and admit that you were totally useless.
[05:29] Cresson
You're weirdly harsh on me,
considering we're classmates!
[05:32] Cresson
Besides, if I tell them it wasn't me again,
[05:35] Cresson
the second secretary is gonna
notice and write me off.
[05:38] Cresson
So, that being the case,
I need your help, bro!
[05:42] Zenos
I'm not your bro.
[05:47] Lily
I made some tea.
[05:48] Cresson
Who's this?
[05:50] Umin
Zeno's little sister.
[05:52] Lily
Thank you for always
looking after my brother.
[05:55] Cresson
Wouldn't have expected you
to have such a cute sister...
[05:58] Lily
Cute?
[06:01] Lily
I'm so sorry,
[06:03] Lily
but I belong to my big brother.
[06:05] Lily
So no matter how much you compliment
me, I'll never be yours, Cresson.
[06:08] Cresson
Not even a "Mister" Cresson?!
[06:10] Cresson
And you two are that kind of siblings, huh?
[06:13] Zenos
No, we're not.
[06:15] Cresson
Still, if you're my bro's sister,
you're basically mine, too.
[06:19] Cresson
Nice to meet you, little sis!
[06:21] Zenos
That's also wrong.
[06:24] Lily
I don't want a big brother like him!
[06:34] Fennel
Professor, we've been waiting for you.
[06:37] Goldran
Lord Fennel, why the sudden summons?
[06:41] Fennel
Well... the situation's
become a bit complicated.
[06:48] Fennel
It seems that Charlotte
is refusing the surgery.
[06:52] Fennel
She's locked herself in
her room, saying that
[06:54] Fennel
any kind of scar on her
face is unacceptable.
[06:57] Goldran
I see.
[06:59] Fennel
But I have faith that you can treat
her without leaving a scar, Professor!
[07:04] Goldran
Yes, of course.
[07:06] Fennel
So would you please convince my daughter?
[07:11] Goldran
Understood.
[07:21] Fennel
Charlotte, the professor is here.
[07:26] Fennel
It's me, Papa.
[07:28] Fennel
You should let the professor
handle your treatment.
[07:30] Fennel
It'll be fine. Have I ever lied to you?
[07:40] Charlotte
Papa, you promised me that that
fire fox pelt scarf for my birthday,
[07:45] Charlotte
but you didn't get it for me!
[07:50] Goldran
Miss, my name is Goldran.
I'm with the royal hospital.
[07:54] Goldran
Would you be willing to trust
me to treat your condition?
[07:57] Charlotte
No!
[07:58] Goldran
But without surgery,
your condition can't be fixed.
[08:02] Charlotte
I absolutely refuse to allow
a blade near my face!
[08:05] Charlotte
I bet you were ordered by someone to
mutilate my beautiful face, weren't you?!
[08:09] Goldran
Of course not!
[08:10] Goldran
I bet it's the Geese family's girl.
[08:12] Goldran
She's always been jealous of me.
She probably arranged this whole thing.
[08:17] Goldran
I guess being too pretty
brings its own problems.
[08:20] Cresson
Hey, bro.
[08:21] Zenos
I'm not your bro, but what?
[08:23] Cresson
I just had an awesome idea.
[08:26] Cresson
Something even simpler
than getting promoted.
[08:29] Cresson
Say I convince her to go under the knife,
we heal her perfectly, and she falls for me...
[08:33] Cresson
Then we get married.
[08:36] Cresson
All of a sudden, I'm a member of
the aristocracy! It's a perfect plan.
[08:40] Zenos
Yeah? Hope that works for you.
[08:43] Cresson
Let me speak to her, please!
[08:47] Cresson
Excuse me, Miss Charlotte?
[08:50] Charlotte
And who are you?
[08:51] Cresson
My name is Cresson.
I'm the professor's assistant.
[08:55] Charlotte
What?
[08:56] Charlotte
Where does some assistant
get off talking to me?
[08:59] Charlotte
You're noise pollution!
[09:01] Cresson
S-Sorry!
[09:03] Cresson
Bro! I'm gonna work my
way to the top after all!
[09:07] Cresson
You can't trust chicks.
[09:09] Zenos
You sure know how to adapt, huh?
[09:14] Zenos
Guess it's my turn.
[09:19] Zenos
Uh, can you hear me?
[09:22] Charlotte
Another one?
[09:24] Charlotte
Who are you?
[09:25] Charlotte
You certainly seem to be lacking in manners.
[09:28] Zenos
I'm the other assistant.
[09:29] Charlotte
Again?! Where does some assistant get off—
[09:31] Zenos
About the surgery. If you don't
want to do it, that's fine.
[09:37] Zenos
Anyone would be scared to have
their face cut open with a knife.
[09:40] Zenos
And that growth won't kill you,
[09:42] Zenos
so there's no need to force
it if you don't want to.
[09:44] Zenos
It's your call to make.
[09:46] Zenos
Left alone, the worst you'll have is a
mark that looks like an old lady's face.
[09:50] Zenos
Some people even get
attached to how they look.
[09:52] Zenos
They even give the growths
names and everything.
[09:56] Zenos
Well, that does it for me.
[09:58] Goldran
What do you think you're doing?!
[10:04] Charlotte
W-Wait.
[10:07] Charlotte
Just wait...
[10:13] Cresson
Oh, wow! Pictures that were
produced with a magic projector!
[10:17] Cresson
Do you know how expensive
it is to get these in color?!
[10:19] Cresson
These folks really are rich!
[10:22] Charlotte
So, is that true?
[10:24] Charlotte
If nothing is done, the growth will
look like an old woman's face?
[10:28] Cresson
Yes, that's right! It's—
[10:30] Charlotte
Keep your mouth shut.
[10:32] Charlotte
I don't want your breath
stinking up my lovely room.
[10:39] Goldran
Yes, it is true, milady.
[10:42] Goldran
It's called Odd Face, and after about a month,
[10:46] Goldran
the growth takes the shape
of an old woman's face.
[10:49] Charlotte
So, what do I do?!
[10:51] Goldran
The only way to remove it is via surgery.
[10:54] Charlotte
I refuse to be cut!
[10:55] Goldran
But—
[10:56] Charlotte
I won't be cut! I don't want pain!
[10:59] Charlotte
And I don't want the growth to stay!
[11:01] Charlotte
I don't want any of this!
[11:03] Cresson
This chick is spoiled like crazy.
[11:05] Fennel
Charlotte, if we don't do something,
the growth will only get bigger.
[11:10] Fennel
Why not trust the professor
to take care of it?
[11:12] Charlotte
You don't care if my face
is all scarred up, Papa?
[11:15] Fennel
It won't be! The professor
can heal the scars.
[11:19] Charlotte
Can you guarantee that?!
[11:20] Fennel
Guarantee...
[11:24] Charlotte
I refuse unless you can guarantee
me there will be no scars!
[11:29] Fennel
Charlotte...
[11:45] Zenos
You like birds, huh?
[11:47] Charlotte
Why is another assistant talking to me?
[11:51] Charlotte
You're fouling the air of
my room with your breath.
[11:54] Zenos
We're on the veranda,
so I'm pretty sure I'm not.
[11:58] Charlotte
You think you're so clever.
[12:00] Zenos
One of them is hurt.
[12:07] Charlotte
I found it in the garden yesterday.
[12:09] Charlotte
It won't be able to fly again...
[12:12] Charlotte
just like me.
[12:15] Charlotte
No more dresses for me. Or dancing at balls.
[12:19] Charlotte
It won't be long before people
ignore me altogether.
[12:22] Zenos
Do you want to get better?
[12:25] Charlotte
Just stop talking to me.
[12:28] Zenos
I'll ask again. Do you want
your illness to get better?
[12:31] Charlotte
Of course I do! But I don't want any scars!
[12:35] Charlotte
So stop talking to me!
[12:37] Charlotte
Who do you think I am?!
[12:39] Zenos
A patient.
[12:43] Zenos
If you're in trouble and request
treatment, you're a patient.
[12:48] Zenos
I don't care if you're royalty,
nobility, a civilian, or a peasant.
[12:53] Zenos
Healing patients is my job.
[13:01] Zenos
You want to dance again, right?
[13:05] Zenos
Well, he flew.
[13:08] Charlotte
I...
[13:10] Charlotte
Can I fly again?
[13:13] Zenos
If you want to, yeah.
[13:23] Fennel
Please, take good care of her, Professor.
[13:29] Zenos
Did Becker make this sleeping drug, too?
[13:33] Goldran
All right, time for you two to go to work.
[13:36] Goldran
This absolutely has to be a success.
[13:39] Goldran
I'm sure you realize what'll
happen if you fail.
[13:43] Cresson
R-Right! Leave it to me!
[13:48] Zenos
I'll handle the surgery.
[13:50] Cresson
Bro, have you done this before?
[13:52] Zenos
When I was a kid, yeah.
[13:53] Cresson
Huh?
[13:54] Zenos
Don't worry about it.
[13:56] Zenos
Point is, I have some experience,
so I should be able to manage.
[13:59] Cresson
I really picked the right guy for my big bro!
[14:02] Zenos
I never agreed to that, you know.
[14:05] Goldran
What are you doing?
[14:07] Goldran
Dog-sitter, you were the one
who treated Milk, right?
[14:11] Goldran
You'll be the surgeon.
[14:13] Cresson
Uh, but...
[14:16] Goldran
What is it?
[14:18] Cresson
Nothing, sir.
[14:20] Goldran
Then get started already!
[14:22] Cresson
Yes, sir.
[14:27] Zenos
So that's what most people
use for the incisions?
[14:30] Cresson
What else would you use?
[14:32] Zenos
Come on, if you keep shaking like that,
it's only gonna leave a bigger scar.
[14:36] Zenos
Don't worry. It's not a
complicated procedure.
[14:39] Cresson
The textbook says it's A+ difficulty!
[14:42] Goldran
Hey!
[14:44] Goldran
What are you babbling about?
[14:45] Cresson
R-Right.
[14:48] Cresson
The roots of Odd Face growths are said
to take hold at 3, 7, and 10 o'clock...
[14:53] Zenos
One sec.
[14:54] Zenos
Scan.
[14:57] Cresson
What was that?
[14:58] Zenos
I ran an internal check.
[15:00] Zenos
The directions of the roots can vary,
[15:02] Zenos
so you shouldn't assume
common knowledge is correct.
[15:04] Zenos
In this case, 2, 6, 9, and 10 o'clock.
[15:09] Cresson
You can tell all that?
[15:11] Zenos
Can't operate unless you can.
[15:13] Zenos
I'll whisper the specifics
to you, so just do as I say.
[15:16] Cresson
Bro!
[15:35] Goldran
I'm impressed, dog-sitter.
[15:38] Cresson
Oh, no...
[15:39] Goldran
What is it?
[15:41] Cresson
Well... the roots... are
tangled with her nerves.
[15:44] Cresson
To cut them, I'd have to cut the nerves, too—
[15:46] Goldran
Hold on!
[15:47] Goldran
Doing that will alter her appearance.
[15:50] Goldran
Nerves are a lot harder
to repair than epidermis.
[15:53] Cresson
B-But if we leave any roots uncut,
the growth will come back!
[15:56] Cresson
Maybe we should close her up and try to
[15:58] Cresson
convince her to undergo a second
surgery at the royal hospital?
[16:01] Goldran
It's too late for that!
[16:03] Goldran
If we don't deal with the growth now, it'll
likely grow back even stronger than before!
[16:11] Goldran
We've no choice.
[16:13] Goldran
Cut it out.
[16:14] Cresson
Y-You're sure?
[16:16] Goldran
Leaving a root behind and the resulting
recurrence will reflect badly on my reputation.
[16:21] Goldran
Our priority is completely
removing the growth.
[16:24] Cresson
But it'll change her appearance!
[16:27] Goldran
This is bound to affect
the director's election,
[16:29] Goldran
but leaving the root will
end up disfiguring her.
[16:32] Goldran
The best choice here is
to minimize the damage.
[16:37] Goldran
Damn it! I can't believe
I got stuck with this mess.
[16:46] Goldran
You imbecile!
[16:50] Goldran
How could you do this?!
[16:52] Fennel
Is something wrong, Professor?
[16:54] Goldran
My idiot assistant ignored
my orders and cut her nerves!
[16:59] Goldran
I said that was the one thing not to do!
[17:05] Fennel
Is that a problem?
[17:07] Goldran
A major one!
[17:09] Goldran
And it's your fault, dog-sitter!
[17:11] Goldran
Since we have no other choice, we'll
take her to the royal hospital tomorrow,
[17:15] Goldran
and I'll reconnect the nerves
with my health transfer magic.
[17:19] Goldran
It won't restore her completely,
[17:22] Goldran
but it should be better
than her current state.
[17:25] Zenos
Don't worry about it.
[17:28] Zenos
The nerves just had to be cut because the
roots of the growth were running too deep.
[17:32] Zenos
You just need to reconnect what was cut.
[17:35] Fennel
I don't need to worry?
[17:37] Fennel
My daughter will be fine, then?
[17:39] Zenos
Yeah, she will be.
[17:41] Zenos
An injury like this is
nothing to worry about.
[17:44] Zenos
And definitely nothing worth
going to the royal hospital for.
[17:48] Zenos
Wouldn't you agree, Professor?
[17:50] Goldran
What?
[17:52] Zenos
This girl said she wanted to dance again.
[17:54] Zenos
She was scared, but willing to trust us.
[17:57] Zenos
As a healer, I need to answer that.
[18:02] Zenos
All right, I'm getting a little
tired of standing around.
[18:05] Zenos
It's time to wrap this up.
[18:18] Zenos
You did great.
[18:20] Zenos
The surgery was a success.
[18:30] Fennel
Charlotte!
[18:31] Charlotte
Wait, Papa.
[18:33] Charlotte
A mirror...
[18:36] Charlotte
Papa... The growth is gone?
[18:40] Fennel
Yes. They were able to completely remove it!
[18:44] Charlotte
Thank goodness...
[18:47] Charlotte
I'm so glad.
[18:49] Fennel
It really is a relief!
[18:51] Fennel
Professor Goldran did a perfect job.
[18:54] Charlotte
Yes...
[18:56] Charlotte
Where is he?
[18:57] Fennel
He seems to be busy with the upcoming
election for hospital director,
[19:02] Fennel
and I didn't want to keep
him, so I let him go.
[19:06] Charlotte
I see...
[19:07] Fennel
I do, of course, intend to offer him
my full support in the election.
[19:11] Fennel
After all, he saved me once,
[19:13] Fennel
and now he's saved you, as well.
[19:15] Charlotte
R-Right.
[19:18] Zenos
You did great.
[19:21] Charlotte
Say, Papa... What was his name?
[19:25] Fennel
Whose?
[19:26] Charlotte
The one with bad manners!
[19:28] Fennel
Oh, the professor's second
assistant? What of him?
[19:34] Charlotte
Wh-What difference does it make?
[19:37] Butler
Miss, I believe his name was Zeno.
[19:50] Charlotte
Zeno...
[19:58] Umin
I appreciate you helping me out.
[20:01] Zenos
It's fine, but this is a lot of bottles.
[20:03] Zenos
What's in them?
[20:05] Umin
These are experimental
concoctions of Dr. Becker's.
[20:07] Umin
We're moving them into storage.
[20:11] Zenos
What kind of drug is it?
[20:12] Umin
That's a good question.
[20:14] Zenos
You don't know?
[20:17] Umin
I'm not sure Dr. Becker knows, either.
[20:20] Zenos
Shouldn't he, though?
[20:23] Umin
Well, he always says
repeated experimentation
[20:25] Umin
holds the promise of new breakthroughs.
[20:29] Umin
I just wish he'd consider I feel as the one
who has to find a way to store the results.
[20:34] Becker
I am grateful, though.
[20:36] Umin
Dr. Becker.
[20:38] Becker
You didn't have to carry them all at once.
[20:41] Umin
I wanted to make sure they were stored
in the best condition possible.
[20:46] Becker
I appreciate that.
[20:47] Becker
These concoctions are going to be
particularly valuable this time.
[20:51] Umin
You say that every time.
[20:54] Becker
Do I?
[20:56] Becker
How did your noble surgery go?
[20:59] Zenos
Well enough.
[21:00] Becker
I suppose I didn't need to ask.
[21:02] Becker
Maybe now Professor Goldran
will think highly of you.
[21:06] Cresson
Bro!
[21:08] Cresson
You and I were invited to one of
Professor Goldran's dinner parties!
[21:15] Umin
Zeno, that's amazing!
[21:17] Becker
Congratulations, Zeno.
[21:21] Umin
Normally, you'd get a big head
and make snide remarks.
[21:25] Umin
What's going on?
[21:26] Umin
Aren't you glad?
[21:28] Cresson
I mean, I am, but...
[21:31] Umin
You could be selected to be an officer!
[21:33] Umin
This is the opportunity for a promotion
that you've been waiting for!
[21:36] Cresson
Yeah... That's right!
[21:41] Cresson
Once I become a big shot,
I'll push you around!
[21:46] Umin
Now there's the friendless
Cresson I remember!
[21:49] Cresson
Don't call me friendless!
[21:51] Cresson
I'm pretty self-conscious about that!
[21:54] Cresson
Let's get a move on, bro!
[21:56] Cresson
The dinner party is this evening,
[21:58] Cresson
so I'll see you in the lobby tonight!
[22:01] Umin
He's taken a real liking to you.
[22:04] Zenos
I'm not thrilled about it.
[22:07] Becker
Whatever the case, congratulations.
[22:10] Becker
I don't think anyone has
ever been invited to one of
[22:13] Becker
Professor Goldran's dinner
parties in such a short time.
[22:16] Becker
The risk I took in bringing you into
this matter is really paying off.
[22:20] Becker
Your job is almost done.

[00:00] 2nd Sec
Does everyone have their glasses?
[00:03] 2nd Sec
Professor, if you would please begin.
[00:07] Goldran
First, as the rumors have suggested,
[00:10] Goldran
the hospital's current
director, Lord Shalbard,
[00:12] Goldran
will be retiring at the end of next month.
[00:15] Goldran
The election for the vacant
position will be held soon.
[00:19] Goldran
Our faction is the largest in the hospital.
[00:23] Goldran
We have more than enough votes.
[00:25] Goldran
In addition, one of the seven
great aristocrats, Lord Fennel,
[00:28] Goldran
has promised to spare no
expense in his support.
[00:32] Cresson
Bro, this is crazy!
[00:34] Cresson
Things are getting totally crazy!
[00:37] Zenos
I'm not your brother, though.
[00:39] Cresson
Aw, don't be like that! Right, little sis?
[00:42] Lily
I wouldn't want a big
brother like you, Cresson.
[00:45] Cresson
Ice cold...
[00:47] Lily
I'm my brother's guest, but you
don't have one, huh, Cresson?
[00:53] Cresson
I just have too many potential
girlfriends to narrow it down, is all.
[00:56] Lily
They all said no, huh?
[00:58] Lily
Poor Cresson.
[01:00] Cresson
Don't just throw it in my face!
[01:02] Lily
Did you ask Umin?
[01:04] Cresson
Huh?
[01:05] Cresson
Why would I invite her of all people?
[01:09] Lily
Because you bug her all the time.
[01:12] Lily
And Carmilla told me that boys always
bug the girls they like the most!
[01:17] Cresson
Who the heck is Carmilla?
[01:21] Cresson
It's fine! I've got my bro, Zeno.
[01:24] Cresson
I'm gonna stick to him like glue!
[01:27] Zenos
No, I'd rather you didn't.
[01:30] Goldran
Those of you gathered here today
[01:33] Goldran
are the chosen amongst
all those in our group.
[01:36] Goldran
Take pride in that!
[01:38] Goldran
Cheers!
[01:39] Crowd
Cheers!
[01:41] Cresson
All right! Time to go suck up to the big shots!
[01:47] Zenos
We'd better get to work, too.
[01:49] Lily
Yeah!
[01:52] Zenos
Afread went missing after being invited
to a dinner party like this one.
[01:56] Zenos
There was one thing I heard
that caught my attention...
[02:00] Zenos
At the time, Afread had been looking
after Bons, who was drunk at that party.
[02:06] Zenos
You're Mr. Bons, right?
[02:09] Bons
Who the hell are you?
[02:11] Zenos
I wanted to talk to you about something.
[02:15] Zenos
At the last dinner party, there
was a guy named Afread, right?
[02:18] Bons
Oh, the kid from the other research lab.
[02:22] Bons
I remember he brought me some
water after I got hammered...
[02:27] Zenos
Did you notice anything strange?
[02:28] Bons
Not that I remember!
[02:30] Bons
Next thing I knew, the sun was up.
[02:33] Zenos
I see.
[02:35] Bons
He was a good kid, though.
[02:38] Bons
Most of these uppity types
don't pay me any mind at all.
[02:42] Bons
Goldran tells 'em I'm a liar
and to steer clear of me.
[02:50] Zenos
Why would he do that to the person he
gave the position of first secretary to?
[02:53] Bons
Not that I care.
[02:55] Bons
I owe the man my carefree
lifestyle, after all.
[02:59] Bons
Let's hear it for our next hospital director!
[03:03] Lily
Why'd you become his secretary?
[03:05] Bons
We just go way back.
[03:07] Lily
How'd you meet?
[03:08] Bons
Well...
[03:11] Bons
What's it matter? Leave me alone.
[03:15] Zenos
He's totally hammered.
[03:17] Zenos
He doesn't seem to remember anything.
[03:20] Lily
But I think he does know something.
[03:29] Lily
Let's see if we can get him
a little bit more drunk.
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[05:05] Lily
Uh-huh, uh-huh. Go on.
[05:07] Bons
It's like I said!
[05:08] Bons
When I was younger, I wanted
to be a photographer!
[05:12] Lily
Wow.
[05:13] Bons
I know, ain't I amazing?!
[05:16] Lily
You really are.
[05:18] Bons
Y'know, back when I was younger...
[05:19] Zenos
Lily, what is this?
[05:22] Lily
If a man is drinking, and a girl
tells him how impressive he is,
[05:26] Lily
he'll get full of himself
and just keep talking!
[05:29] Zenos
And who taught you this?
[05:32] Lily
Carmilla.
[05:33] Zenos
That stupid specter...
[05:35] Zenos
Say, Mr. Bons, what happened that
time Afread brought you water?
[05:41] Bons
If I remember right, we went
outside to get some fresh air.
[05:45] Zenos
Great idea. Let's see if
that'll sober you up some.
[05:53] Lily
What're you gonna do, Zenos?
[05:55] Zenos
I had an idea.
[05:57] Zenos
What if we re-create the same
situation as with Afread?
[06:10] Bons
Hey, Goldran, look!
Just like back in the day.
[06:14] Zenos
Does he think I'm Goldran?
[06:18] Bons
You're gonna be nobility once you're
director of the Royal Hospital, right?
[06:23] Bons
Looks like you've got an in
with Lord Fennel again, huh?
[06:27] Zenos
"Again"?
[06:28] Bons
Come on, don't play dumb!
[06:31] Bons
That day thirteen years ago is
why you are who you are now!
[06:37] Zenos
What day thirteen years ago?
[06:39] Bons
Come on, don't tell me you forgot!
[06:41] Zenos
Uh... no, I haven't.
[06:44] Zenos
Man, it's been thirteen years already, huh?
[06:47] Bons
The day your life changed, after getting
nowhere with your research for so long!
[06:53] Bons
The day of the explosion!
[06:56] Zenos
Right...
[06:58] Bons
Lord Fennel's backing got you a spot
as a professor at the Royal Hospital!
[07:02] Bons
And this time, you're gonna be director!
[07:05] Bons
You are a slick one!
[07:14] Lily
What now, Zenos?
[07:16] Zenos
I feel like we're on the verge
of something important,
[07:20] Zenos
but he's not waking up,
so I guess we're done.
[07:22] Zenos
We'll leave him with one of
the staff and take a break.
[07:30] Lily
Are you done gathering info?
[07:34] Zenos
I feel like I missed something...
[07:36] Carmilla
I see!
[07:38] Zenos
You scared me...
[07:38] Carmilla
Allow me to reveal this mystery to you.
[07:42] Zenos
What are you doing here?
[07:43] Zenos
This mansion is crawling with healers.
[07:45] Carmilla
Being a nuisance.
[07:46] Carmilla
And being a nuisance is the most
entertaining when it's the most dangerous!
[07:50] Zenos
That doesn't even make sense.
Why look so smug about it?
[07:53] Lily
Can you figure out what happened, Carmilla?
[07:56] Carmilla
Indeed.
[07:57] Carmilla
That drunk's rambling gave me
the gist of what's going on.
[08:01] Carmilla
I'll have you know, despite appearances,
I was a world-famous sage.
[08:05] Carmilla
No mystery remains concealed
from my unparalleled intellect!
[08:10] Zenos
Wow, really?
[08:11] Carmilla
Not at all.
[08:12] Zenos
Why would you lie about that?
[08:19] Zophia
Is Doc gonna be back anytime soon?
[08:22] Lynga
Lynga thinks he will.
[08:24] Loewe
I feel like I'm going to
turn to stone from waiting.
[08:27] Zophia
What are you two even doing here every day?
[08:31] Zophia
Don't you have people to look
after instead of loafing around?
[08:35] Lynga
Lynga knows you're only saying that
[08:37] Lynga
so you can sniff Sir Zenos's pillow in
secret once you're the only one here.
[08:42] Loewe
What?! You've been doing
that, Zophia?! I'm jealous!
[08:46] Zophia
I am not like the two of you!
[08:48] Zophia
All right, enough of that.
[08:51] Zophia
No point in facing off with you
two when he's not even here.
[08:54] Lynga
Agreed.
[08:55] Loewe
He'd be upset with us if we got
injured in the process, anyway.
[09:01] Lizardman
Boss! Zonde got hurt real bad in an accident!
[09:04] Zophia
What happened?
[09:05] Lizardman
While we were working, a pillar
broke, and it went through his gut!
[09:08] Zophia
When will Doc be back?
[09:11] Lynga
Lynga thinks if we wait for
Sir Zenos, it'll be too late.
[09:14] Loewe
I agree. We need to take him
to Zenos as soon as we can.
[09:18] Zophia
We can't.
[09:20] Zophia
The doc's undercover with a fake identity.
[09:23] Zophia
We'd ruin the whole thing.
[09:25] Lynga
Lynga understands how you feel,
[09:27] Lynga
but this is an emergency.
[09:29] Loewe
Can you picture Zenos getting upset about it?
[09:35] Zophia
Let's get ready to go!
[09:36] Zophia
And we're going to pay him
double his usual rate!
[09:40] Carmilla
The day of an explosion, thirteen years ago...
[09:43] Carmilla
It was the day a man, who had been an
unremarkable researcher before then,
[09:47] Carmilla
found his life had changed
after saving a noble's life.
[09:50] Carmilla
When you hear of someone owing
a healer, what do you picture?
[09:53] Zenos
The normal thing is to assume
the healer healed them.
[09:57] Zenos
So some kind of explosion happened
where Lord Fennel got hurt...
[10:01] Zenos
And Goldran healed him, I assume?
[10:04] Carmilla
If it were that simple, it'd be a sweet story.
[10:06] Carmilla
But consider how this story is kept secret.
[10:10] Zenos
Why isn't it better known?
[10:12] Carmilla
Circumstances best kept secret, I'd wager.
[10:14] Lily
What circumstances?
[10:15] Carmilla
If there was an explosion,
[10:17] Carmilla
we can assume the noble
had been hurt fairly badly.
[10:20] Carmilla
Yet, Zenos, the person you met
seemed to be right as rain.
[10:25] Carmilla
Is that kind of complete healing possible?
[10:29] Zenos
I mean, as long as the heart's intact,
you could probably manage.
[10:32] Carmilla
I wasn't asking about
your extraordinary case.
[10:34] Carmilla
Could this Goldran have managed it?
[10:39] Lily
I think I get it!
[10:41] Lily
Thirteen years ago, there was an explosion,
[10:44] Lily
and the aristocrat got hurt...
[10:46] Lily
But the person who healed him
didn't take credit for it,
[10:50] Lily
and when that person wandered off,
Mr. Goldran happened to show up.
[10:55] Lily
He made it seem to the aristocrat that
he was the one who did the healing.
[10:58] Lily
Mr. Bons saw it all happen
[11:00] Lily
and used it to blackmail Mr. Goldran!
[11:03] Zenos
But how does that tie into
Afread's disappearance?
[11:08] Lily
Maybe Mr. Bons got drunk at that
dinner party, like this time,
[11:13] Lily
and he told Afread the truth.
[11:16] Lily
Then he went into hiding because
he was scared that Mr. Bons
[11:22] Lily
would remember he told him... maybe?
[11:26] Carmilla
Very impressive, Lily!
[11:28] Lily
Maybe I could be a detective!
[11:31] Lily
Zenos's clinic and Lily's detective agency!
[11:35] Lily
The mystery is unraveled!
[11:38] Cresson
There you guys are!
[11:40] Cresson
Since I got a few ins with the bigwigs,
[11:43] Cresson
I figured I'd introduce you two to them!
[11:45] Lily
I don't want a big brother
who's a brown-noser.
[11:48] Cresson
I will demonstrate how to be a success
in the world to you, little sis.
[11:51] Cresson
Come along!
[11:55] Carmilla
What are you going to do, Zenos?
[11:58] Zenos
About what?
[11:59] Carmilla
You know what I mean.
[12:01] Zenos
You mean the other possibility...
[12:04] Carmilla
Then you did notice it.
[12:06] Zenos
Hearing you describe it made me catch on.
[12:08] Zenos
From the sound of this explosion,
[12:10] Zenos
I doubted that Lord Fennel
would be the only victim.
[12:14] Zenos
A crowd of injured people, one of them
looking more put-together than the rest.
[12:18] Zenos
Goldran sought out a noble in
order to get them in his debt.
[12:21] Zenos
That's where his life
transfer magic comes in.
[12:25] Zenos
If he transferred the remaining life
force from all those injured...
[12:29] Zenos
Goldran would've chosen who survived.
[12:31] Carmilla
And that's a crime?
[12:34] Zenos
Triage wouldn't be a crime.
[12:36] Zenos
But to sacrifice other people to save one...
[12:41] Zenos
That's just...
[12:43] Zenos
But if anyone survived what happened,
[12:46] Zenos
and it was Afread... he probably
wouldn't accept what Goldran did.
[12:50] Carmilla
Vengeance, then?
[12:51] Zenos
It's a possibility.
[12:54] Zenos
Afread... Where in the world are you?
[12:58] Carmilla
So, what will you do?
[13:01] Zenos
Just tell Becker what I've learned.
[13:03] Zenos
Judgment isn't my job.
[13:05] Zenos
I'm just an underground healer.
[13:07] Carmilla
I suppose that's true.
[13:11] Zenos
Thanks, Carmilla.
[13:12] Carmilla
Huh?
[13:13] Zenos
You came to check up on me
because you were worried, right?
[13:16] Zenos
And thanks to you, I've figured some stuff out.
[13:18] Carmilla
Fool! I only came to be a
nuisance, to entertain myself.
[13:22] Carmilla
Consider my debt to you for
the zombie king matter repaid.
[13:29] Zenos
What the...
[13:31] Zenos
What's up?
[13:32] Cresson
Bro. There seems to be some
kinda commotion outside.
[13:39] Lily
Wait, isn't that Umin?
[13:43] Umin
I'm trying to tell you...
[13:44] Umin
I just need to speak with someone named Zeno!
[13:47] Guards
No one enters without an invitation!
[13:49] Umin
Then could you please call him over?
It's a bit of an emergency.
[13:52] Guards
The professor is hosting this party!
[13:54] Guards
You don't get to interrupt it.
[13:55] Loewe
Excuse me!
[13:58] Lily
Loewe?!
[14:00] Zenos
What is she doing here?
[14:02] Zophia
Idiot! Why would you holler like
that where everyone can hear?!
[14:06] Loewe
What other choice is there?
[14:08] Zophia
Plenty! We can't get the doc in trouble.
[14:12] Lynga
No, Lynga thinks Loewe is right.
[14:15] Lynga
We don't have enough time
to take things slow.
[14:18] Lily
The others are here, too.
[14:21] Zenos
Yeah...
[14:23] Goldran
Are those demihumans?
[14:25] Goldran
What are those lesser creatures
doing at my mansion?
[14:29] Goldran
Throw them out at once!
[14:39] Loewe
There you are, Zenos.
[14:42] Loewe
Sorry, but it's an emergency!
[14:44] Guest A
Zeno...s? Wait, the special research student?
[14:47] Guest B
Does he know these demihumans?
[14:50] Zenos
What happened?
[14:52] Loewe
Zonde is hurt badly.
[14:54] Loewe
We were headed to the Royal Hospital dorms,
[14:56] Loewe
but we ran into the glasses girl,
and she told us where you were.
[15:00] Umin
Uh... Yes, that's right.
[15:02] Goldran
Hey! What exactly is your relationship
with these demihumans?
[15:06] Cresson
B-Bro... Say it ain't so...
[15:09] Zenos
Loewe, what's Zonde's condition?
[15:11] Loewe
His breathing is pretty shallow.
[15:13] Zophia
Doc!
[15:14] Zophia
I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!
[15:18] Zophia
I didn't wanna mess with your plans...
[15:21] Zophia
But Zonde... It looks like he's gonna die...
[15:25] Zophia
I'm begging you... Save him.
[15:29] Zenos
All right. I'm on my way.
[15:31] Goldran
Hold it! Are you insane?!
[15:34] Zenos
No, I'm definitely sane.
[15:36] Goldran
Impossible! After securing your
path to glory among my faction,
[15:40] Goldran
you'd lower yourself to save
these demihuman peasants?!
[15:43] Goldran
If you go, there's no coming back!
[15:44] Zenos
Suit yourself.
[15:46] Goldran
You don't realize what you're throwing
away! A path to becoming elite!
[15:52] Zenos
I'm not interested in being
part of an elite faction.
[15:56] Zenos
I'm just a healer.
[15:58] Zenos
That's all I've ever been.
[16:01] Zenos
Look after yourself, Cresson.
[16:05] Zenos
Lily, come on.
[16:06] Lily
Okay. Up I go!
[16:15] Cresson
Bro... How could you?
[16:18] Goldran
You're not as big a fool as he is, I take it?
[16:22] Goldran
His future is done for.
[16:24] Goldran
I'll make sure he never
works as a healer again.
[16:28] Cresson
You're right. He's a fool.
[16:31] Cresson
I want to get promoted... get a
nice house... have a hot woman...
[16:35] Cresson
That's what I've been working for all along.
[16:40] Cresson
But whether it was a dog or the
daughter of a major aristocrat, he...
[16:46] Cresson
No one likes me anyway, and I'm
greedy, and people think I'm stupid,
[16:51] Cresson
but even so...
[16:53] Cresson
I'm a healer, too, damn it!
[16:56] Goldran
What?!
[17:01] Cresson
I, Cresson Wembley, have to withdraw
from the faction due to circumstances!
[17:08] Cresson
Bro! Wait up! I'll help with the healing!
[17:16] Zonde
I'm so... sorry...
[17:18] Zenos
It's fine.
[17:20] Zophia
I'm sorry about this, Doc.
[17:22] Zenos
It's okay. I'm sorry I was missing for so long.
[17:26] Lynga
See? Just like I said, Sir Zenos doesn't mind.
[17:30] Loewe
Indeed.
[17:32] Zenos
We're almost done.
[17:34] Cresson
Here's Cresson! Let me help with the...
[17:39] Cresson
Aw, come on! Why'd I even quit?!
[17:43] Umin
You're as stupid as ever.
[17:45] Cresson
Sh-Shut up!
[17:47] Umin
But I heard what you said.
[17:49] Umin
You may be stupid, but that was also the
most impressed I've ever been with you.
[17:54] Cresson
Sh-Shut up! It's thanks to
you guys I'm in this situation!
[17:58] Cresson
So you'd better take responsibility.
[18:00] Umin
Maybe you really are just unpleasant.
[18:04] Cresson
That's right! I'm as bad as they come!
[18:07] Zophia
Who's the kid, Doc?
[18:11] Zenos
How do I put this?
[18:15] Zenos
He's like a pesky little brother, I guess.
[18:23] Becker
I see.
[18:25] Becker
Afread had mentioned being caught
in a major accident as a child.
[18:30] Becker
This may have been what he was referring to.
[18:32] Umin
I had no idea...
[18:35] Becker
When is the party to celebrate Professor
Goldran's election to the director's office?
[18:40] Zenos
Tomorrow.
[18:42] Becker
Afread may take some action to get revenge.
[18:46] Becker
I should attend that party.
[18:49] Becker
Now, putting that aside...
[18:52] Becker
I appreciate you bringing me
this valuable information.
[18:55] Becker
You've done your job, Zenos.
[18:57] Becker
Thank you for that.
[18:59] Zenos
You sure?
[19:00] Becker
That was our arrangement, after all.
[19:02] Becker
You'll need to stay another
day for the paperwork
[19:05] Becker
allowing your special research
student period to end,
[19:09] Becker
so I'll provide your other payment—
regarding your teacher—tomorrow.
[19:14] Zenos
All right. I understand.
[19:16] Umin
I'll come by your room this evening, then.
[19:19] Zenos
Was there something else we needed to do?
[19:22] Umin
Why, your going-away party, of course!
[19:31] Cresson
So Bro was hired by Professor Becker
to investigate a disappearance,
[19:35] Cresson
and normally runs a clinic in
an abandoned part of the city,
[19:37] Cresson
which is how he knows demihumans? For real?
[19:41] Zenos
Yep. All true.
[19:43] Cresson
What am I supposed to do when you're gone?!
[19:47] Umin
This is just pitiful.
[19:49] Cresson
That's harsh, classmate!
[19:50] Cresson
Don't you agree, little sis?
[19:53] Lily
I don't want a pitiful big brother.
[19:55] Cresson
Even my little sister is harsh!
[19:57] Cresson
Come on, Bro!
[19:59] Zenos
You're adaptable enough to
survive wherever you end up.
[20:03] Cresson
That doesn't feel like a full compliment...
What do you think, little sis?
[20:07] Zenos
Lily isn't actually my little sister.
[20:10] Cresson
Seriously?!
[20:11] Lily
I'm sorry for lying, Cresson.
[20:13] Lily
I'm actually Zenos's wife!
[20:16] Cresson
F-For real?!
[20:18] Zenos
No, not for real.
[20:20] Cresson
I must be losing it...
[20:21] Cresson
I'm even seeing something that looks
like a wraith behind that pillar.
[20:27] Zenos
Why did you come out, Carmilla?
[20:29] Carmilla
How could I not?
[20:31] Carmilla
That boy is drowning in my liquor!
[20:34] Zenos
It's just some stuff you
snuck out of Goldran's house.
[20:36] Carmilla
That wine desires to be drunk by me.
[20:39] Umin
Zenos?
[20:42] Zenos
Don't worry, it's fine.
[20:43] Zenos
She's got a good heart.
[20:45] Umin
A good-hearted... wraith? What?
[20:49] Carmilla
You're the only one I'd allow to
speak about me in such a way.
[20:53] Carmilla
Do not drink all of it.
[20:55] Carmilla
If you do, I'll curse you and your descendants.
[21:08] Carmilla
What has you spacing out?
[21:11] Zenos
I'm from the slums, and was treated
terribly by the party I worked with,
[21:14] Zenos
but the two of them don't
treat me any different.
[21:17] Zenos
Finding out people like that
exist is a bit of a relief.
[21:20] Carmilla
Sad to part with them?
[21:23] Zenos
Could be. But I'm used to saying goodbye.
[21:27] Carmilla
Meeting people, parting with them,

That cycle, repeated, is human life itself.
[21:35] Carmilla
It's how we learn the width

[21:39] Zenos
You actually make sense occasionally.
[21:42] Carmilla
You learn a thing or two
after living for 300 years.
[21:44] Zenos
Except you're dead.
[21:49] Zenos
Well, I appreciate everything.

You're the one who's helped us.
[21:55] Cresson
Bro!
[21:57] Umin
Oh, right!
[21:58] Umin
Dr. Becker asked me to give you a letter
containing the details about your teacher.

[00:04] Goldran
With all these votes secured,
[00:06] Goldran
I'm guaranteed to become hospital director.
[00:09] Fennel
Hello there, Professor Goldran.
[00:11] Goldran
Lord Fennel.
[00:13] Fennel
As my savior, it's appropriate that you'll
finally have standing to reflect that.
[00:18] Goldran
Thank you for such generous praise.
[00:22] Goldran
I've finally made it here...
[00:25] Goldran
It all began with that explosion in the
magic tool factory thirteen years ago.
[00:30] Goldran
That day, I was heading back to my hometown
after my research yielded no results.
[00:35] Goldran
I thought that if I saved an aristocrat's life,
their gratitude could get me somewhere.
[00:40] Goldran
It was the first time
[00:41] Goldran
I had successfully used my health transfer
magic with a donor other than myself.
[00:46] Goldran
Lord Fennel being one of the seven great
nobles was an unexpected windfall.
[00:51] Goldran
The only downside was that Bons
captured the moment on camera,
[00:55] Goldran
which led me to give him the
position of first secretary,
[00:57] Goldran
and the lifestyle that came
with it, to keep him quiet.
[01:01] Fennel
I'll see you later, then.
[01:04] Becker
Well, this is impressive!
[01:07] Becker
You've really made something
of yourself, Professor Goldran.
[01:11] Goldran
Ah, Becker.
[01:13] Goldran
Here to ingratiate yourself with
the next director already?
[01:17] Becker
I don't have a problem with
you seeing it that way.
[01:21] Goldran
That special research student was
here on your recommendation, yes?
[01:26] Goldran
I had taken a shine to him,
thinking he'd be useful,
[01:28] Goldran
but he turned out to be a waste of time.
[01:30] Becker
Did he offend you somehow?
[01:32] Goldran
He was invited to one of my dinner parties,
[01:35] Goldran
yet chose to leave to heal some
demihumans who barged in.
[01:38] Goldran
An act of inconceivable idiocy.
[01:41] Goldran
A member of my faction cannot
prioritize peasants for healing.
[01:46] Goldran
He needs to consider our position as healers.
[01:49] Goldran
Not all lives have equal value.
SIGN The Brilliant Healer's
New Life in the Shadows
[03:25] Fennel
Looking back now, my relationship with
Professor Goldran began thirteen years ago,
[03:29] Fennel
when, after I had been seriously wounded—
[03:32] Goldran
Lord Fennel.
[03:33] Goldran
I'm sure there's no need
to share such a sad story.
[03:35] Fennel
Oh? It seems our star would rather
not discuss his past glories.
[03:39] Fennel
How humble is that, for someone on the
verge of becoming the next director?
[03:46] Fennel
Well, let's hear from the man himself, then.
[03:49] Goldran
It's an honor, sir.
[03:52] Goldran
At this moment, my life has reached its apex.
[03:57] Goldran
I propose a toast to our bright future!
[04:03] Zenos
Is this from thirteen years ago?
[04:06] Umin
Dr. Becker mentioned meeting
Mr. Bons yesterday,
[04:10] Umin
but I wasn't expecting this.
[04:12] Umin
He looks pretty young in the picture,
but I'm pretty sure this is Afread!
[04:16] Umin
Then the theory of him surviving
this accident is true.
[04:22] Umin
Why?!
[04:24] Umin
This woman is...
[04:29] Goldran
What's happened?
[04:35] Goldran
Becker?
[04:36] Becker
It's poison, Professor.
[04:38] Goldran
Poison?!
[04:39] Becker
Mixed in with the wine
that we all toasted with.
[04:43] Becker
Poison and medicine are two
sides of the same coin.
[04:45] Becker
And preparing medicine is my specialty.
[04:49] Goldran
What is this?!
[04:52] Becker
It's a toxin that causes loss of consciousness
before gradually ending one's life.
[04:56] Becker
Which should occur in roughly
one hour, without intervention.
[04:59] Becker
The dose in your glass was slightly weaker,
[05:04] Becker
but still, I'd wager you won't last two hours.
[05:07] Goldran
What do you think you're doing?!
[05:09] Becker
Isn't it obvious?
[05:11] Becker
Recreating that moment
from thirteen years ago.
[05:13] Goldran
You... How do you know about that?!
[05:17] Becker
I've had my suspicions for a while now,
[05:20] Becker
but it was our talented special research
student who made it clear to me.
[05:25] Goldran
What did he do now?
[05:28] Becker
He found a lead for me to follow.
[05:30] Becker
And Mr. Bons was reluctant to talk,
[05:33] Becker
so I used a combination of alcohol
and medicine to loosen his lips.
[05:36] Becker
Finding the picture was pure luck, though.
[05:38] Goldran
I thought I had gotten rid of that...
[05:40] Becker
He had another copy, apparently.
[05:43] Becker
Looks like you're a poor judge of character.
[05:45] Goldran
Shut up!
[05:47] Becker
"Not all lives have equal value."
[05:50] Becker
Professor Goldran, thirteen years ago,
[05:53] Becker
that belief led you to
choose whose life to save...
[05:57] Becker
and to sacrifice the lives of others.
[06:00] Goldran
They would have died anyway!
[06:02] Becker
In your estimation, at least.
[06:04] Becker
But Afread was among their number.
[06:09] Becker
As was my fiancée.
[06:13] Becker
I've ensured you have enough strength
left to use health transfer magic.
[06:17] Becker
Preventing the poison's progression
will require a fair bit of life force,
[06:22] Becker
but there are plenty of lives here to use.
[06:25] Becker
So, who will you sacrifice this time?
[06:28] Becker
Who will you save?
[06:30] Becker
Your own life?
[06:31] Becker
Lord Fennel? Or the members of the
faction who've given their votes to you?
[06:37] Becker
Go on. It's time to choose who lives.
[06:42] Goldran
I know! An antidote!
There must be one, right?!
[06:46] Goldran
Give it to me now!
[06:47] Goldran
And I'll see that your
punishment isn't too harsh.
[06:52] Goldran
What are you doing?
[06:55] Becker
I took a small enough dose
to retain consciousness...
[06:58] Becker
But it really does have
quite a kick, doesn't it?
[07:01] Becker
And now I'm poisoned myself.
[07:05] Becker
You have one more option now.
[07:08] Becker
You can believe that I have an antidote
and save my life, if you like.
[07:12] Goldran
You can't think you'll get away with this.
[07:16] Becker
I'd stay focused if I were you,
or you'll run out of lives to exploit.
[07:21] Goldran
Damn you!
[07:25] Goldran
Who do I save?
[07:26] Goldran
Myself first.
[07:28] Goldran
Then Lord Fennel.
[07:30] Goldran
If there's no guarantee
that he has an antidote,
[07:33] Goldran
then the sacrifice should be...
[07:36] Goldran
Woven into a single ray of light,
[07:39] Goldran
let the lost embers of life be your guide,
[07:42] Goldran
so that they may find their way home.
[07:45] Goldran
Give Heal!
[07:47] Becker
That is your choice, then?
[07:50] Goldran
They have a duty to serve me.
[07:55] Becker
That's a shame.
[07:56] Becker
I already told you, your dose
was weaker than the others'.
[08:01] Goldran
What difference does that make?
[08:03] Becker
That means you have the most
life force among everyone here.
[08:09] Becker
If you had used that life force, you could
have saved the largest number of people.
[08:13] Goldran
I am worth more than other healers!
[08:17] Becker
Then you insist that not
all life is of equal value?
[08:21] Goldran
Obviously!
[08:22] Goldran
Even among coins, you have
gold, silver, and bronze!
[08:27] Goldran
Life is the same way!
[08:28] Goldran
What sense does it make to
not save the most worthy?!
[08:36] Becker
Well, now...
[08:38] Umin
Dr. Becker!
[08:40] Becker
Umin? What are you doing here?
[08:44] Umin
We found a picture in your room,
[08:46] Umin
and your former fiancée was in it.
[08:50] Umin
I got a bad feeling.
[08:52] Zenos
You poisoned them?
[08:54] Becker
Zenos...
[08:56] Umin
Dr. Becker, why would you do this?!
[09:01] Becker
Are all lives equally valuable?
[09:03] Becker
I've considered the question for a long time.
[09:06] Becker
Thirteen years ago, my fiancée
and I were rookie healers.
[09:12] Becker
Her eyes would shine as she talked about
all the lives she wanted to save.
[09:17] Becker
When I heard she was caught
in an explosion and died,
[09:22] Becker
the ruthlessness of death,
[09:24] Becker
and God's lack of mercy,
[09:26] Becker
drove me into the depths of grief.
[09:30] Becker
If it had just been a random accident,
[09:32] Becker
I would've carried on in her place,
trying to save other people.
[09:37] Becker
But after attending that dinner party,
Afread told me that it wasn't an accident,
[09:43] Becker
and that Goldran was involved.
[09:46] Umin
That's what happened?
[09:48] Becker
It was the last thing he
said to me before vanishing.
[09:52] Becker
And the thought of my fiancée having been
murdered rather than dying in an accident...
[09:56] Becker
I couldn't maintain my composure.
[09:59] Becker
But without any evidence,
and with Afread missing,
[10:03] Becker
I couldn't pursue the truth, either.
[10:07] Zenos
Which is why you hired me.
[10:09] Becker
Ideally, you'd find Afread.
[10:11] Becker
But, if nothing else, you could get into the
dinner party and get some kind of information.
[10:16] Umin
But... This is just...
[10:18] Becker
Umin, I'm so sorry.
[10:21] Becker
But I—
[10:22] Cresson
Shut up!
[10:24] Becker
Cresson?
[10:26] Cresson
Look, I get it.
[10:27] Cresson
If something that messed up
had happened to my lover,
[10:31] Cresson
I wouldn't be able to take it.
[10:32] Cresson
Even though I don't have one!
[10:34] Cresson
And you're right about one thing: Goldran over
there is a huge piece of crap. No doubt about it.
[10:39] Goldran
You wretch!
[10:40] Cresson
But this isn't it!
[10:43] Cresson
It's not right!
[10:45] Cresson
Wanting revenge so badly, you poison
people who have nothing to do with it?!
[10:48] Cresson
That's not how it should be!
[10:51] Cresson
Aren't you a healer?!
[10:53] Cresson
I thought we were supposed to save people!
[10:57] Zenos
Well said, Cresson.
[11:00] Zenos
Hey, Becker, remember when you asked me
[11:03] Zenos
which coins I would pick up when a
bunch were scattered on the ground?
[11:08] Zenos
It was a stupid question.
[11:10] Zenos
I'd pick them all up.
[11:12] Becker
All of them?
[11:14] Zenos
I grew up poor, you know.
[11:18] Becker
You seriously intend to save everyone?
[11:21] Becker
Why? How does it benefit you?
[11:24] Zenos
It's true that I've already
finished the job you hired me for,
[11:29] Zenos
but if I don't do anything, you're
gonna end up guilty of mass murder.
[11:33] Zenos
And there's someone who'd
be worse off if that happened.
[11:35] Umin
Zenos...
[11:37] Umin
Will you save them?
[11:40] Zenos
It's payback for the going-away party.
[11:42] Zenos
Never had someone say they were
sad to see me leave before.
[11:46] Zenos
Normally, people get sick
of me, and I get kicked out.
[11:49] Becker
Zenos, you intend to save these people,
[11:54] Becker
but it's difficult to provide accurate antidote
magic without knowing the specifics of the toxin.
[11:59] Zenos
You gonna tell me the details, then?
[12:02] Zenos
Do you even know them yourself?
[12:05] Becker
What are you—
[12:06] Zenos
Never mind. Don't have a lot of time, anyway.
[12:12] Zenos
Heal!
[12:15] Becker
Heal? A normal Heal spell?!
[12:19] Becker
That might repair the damage it does,
[12:21] Becker
but it won't purge the poison
from their systems!
[12:24] Zenos
I can encourage the body's
natural healing, though.
[12:27] Becker
Those effects are temporary!
[12:29] Becker
The poison has already spread to—
[12:32] Becker
Don't tell me...
[12:34] Zenos
I'm no toxicologist,
[12:36] Zenos
but the effects must wear off sooner or later.
[12:39] Becker
You seriously intend to heal all these
people until the poison has run its course?!
[12:44] Zenos
It's an endurance test between
the poison and my healing magic.
[12:48] Zenos
You'd be surprised
how competitive I can be.
[12:58] Becker
You are just...
[13:00] Cresson
I got your back, Bro!
[13:02] Umin
Likewise!
[13:03] Zenos
Focus your healing on
whoever looks the weakest!
[13:06] Umin
Right!
[13:06] Cressonm
Got it!
[13:11] Zenos
You have a subordinate and an
underclassman cleaning up your mess.
[13:14] Zenos
You'd better be grateful.
[13:16] Becker
I can't believe you're capable of casting
Heal over this length of time.
[13:20] Becker
That's not how this spell works.
[13:23] Zenos
It's not?
[13:25] Becker
I already thought you were remarkable,
but this is just absurd.
[13:29] Zenos
I didn't get a proper education, after all.
[13:33] Becker
My fiancée became a healer to save lives.
[13:38] Becker
She was an admirable woman
who had high-minded goals.
[13:41] Zenos
Yeah.
[13:43] Becker
Goldran killed her... And the thought
of him becoming the next director...
[13:48] Becker
I couldn't let that happen!
[13:50] Becker
I couldn't allow someone who was her
opposite in every way to rise to the top!
[13:54] Zenos
I know.
[13:57] Becker
The longer I've spent here,
the more I've realized...
[14:01] Becker
There's so much disparity in the world.
[14:03] Becker
There are people who can afford
the most advanced healing,
[14:06] Becker
and people who can barely afford
the most meager medication.
[14:09] Zenos
Yeah.
[14:11] Becker
"Are all lives equal in value?"
[14:14] Becker
That question may have consumed
me more than I realized.
[14:20] Becker
Seeing them so desperate to save lives...
[14:23] Becker
Maybe they're the ones who have
inherited my fiancée's spirit.
[14:28] Becker
Zenos, thank you.
[14:31] Zenos
No thanks necessary.
[14:33] Zenos
But I am tired as hell,
so I'm gonna need bonus pay.
[14:38] Goldran
W-Wait a moment!
[14:40] Goldran
I haven't been healed!
[14:44] Zenos
Oh. I forgot.
[14:46] Goldran
Don't you mock me!
[14:48] Goldran
I command you... to save me!
[14:51] Zenos
I was kicked out of your faction,
[14:53] Zenos
so I don't take orders from you.
[14:55] Goldran
You people! Save me, damn it!
[15:00] Faction Member A
It's only in fragments, but
I remember what happened...
[15:03] Faction Member B
After I lost consciousness, it felt
like my life was being drained.
[15:07] Faction Member C
Professor, were you going to sacrifice us?
[15:13] Zenos
And that's what they think of your demands.
[15:16] Zenos
But as long as I get my money,
I don't play favorites.
[15:20] Zenos
I'm an underground healer, after all.
[15:22] Zenos
So if you want my help, it's gonna cost you.
[15:26] Goldran
Cost me?
[15:27] Zenos
Considering how tired I am,
another round of healing is gonna take...
[15:32] Zenos
about this much.
[15:34] Goldran
Ridiculous! I'm not paying that amount!
[15:38] Zenos
Yeah? Never mind, then.
[15:40] Goldran
Wait, wait wait wait!
[15:42] Goldran
I'll pay! You'll get your money. Just save me!
[15:45] Fennel
Goldran.
[15:47] Fennel
We're going to discuss this
matter in detail later.
[15:52] Goldran
Damn it... Damn it!
[16:02] Becker
I've never been interrogated before.
[16:04] Becker
Quite the experience!
[16:07] Umin
Dr. Becker...
[16:08] Becker
I have to say, considering the incident was
yesterday and the investigation is ongoing,
[16:13] Becker
I'm impressed you got permission to see me.
[16:16] Zenos
I actually have an acquaintance
in the royal guard.
[16:19] Becker
You do?
[16:21] Krishna
Good to see you again, Mr. Zenos.
[16:24] Krishna
I'm touched that you'd use a meeting with
a suspect as an excuse to come and see me.
[16:29] Zenos
I'm, uh, not here to see you, actually.
[16:33] Zenos
But I do appreciate you arranging this.
[16:36] Zenos
Thank you.
[16:38] Krishna
Please! It's nothing,
considering what I owe you.
[16:42] Becker
Um... how do you two know each other?
[16:46] Zenos
Don't worry about it.
[16:48] Zenos
I came to ask you some questions today.
[16:51] Becker
Questions?
[16:53] Umin
Dr. Becker, you didn't actually
poison anyone, did you?
[16:58] Becker
In a sense, yes. You're correct.
[17:00] Umin
In a sense?
[17:02] Becker
I would use a poison to create a situation
like the one from thirteen years ago,
[17:07] Becker
and, under the pressure,
Goldran would confess his crimes.
[17:13] Becker
That was my original plan.
[17:16] Umin
B-But you said you didn't poison anyone...
[17:19] Becker
I had prepared a drug that would
only temporarily paralyze the body.
[17:24] Becker
My intention was to lie to Goldran
about it being a lethal toxin.
[17:30] Becker
At first, I thought I had made a
mistake in preparing the drug,
[17:34] Becker
but that wasn't it.
[17:35] Becker
The natural conclusion is
that someone other than me
[17:38] Becker
tampered with the wine,
using a different chemical.
[17:42] Zenos
And you think that was Afread?
[17:44] Becker
Most likely.
[17:46] Becker
He may have been there that night.
[17:49] Becker
Pretending to take a dose of the poison,
[17:51] Becker
blending in among the collapsed healers,
and watching how events unfolded.
[17:55] Umin
Then Afread would be the one who—
[17:58] Becker
No. I'm still guilty.
[18:01] Becker
I realized there was an
actual poison in the wine,
[18:04] Becker
but I was desperate.
[18:06] Becker
At that point, I didn't care if
everyone died, including myself.
[18:11] Umin
Dr. Becker...
[18:13] Krishna
You don't need to worry about him.
[18:16] Krishna
Considering he didn't intend to poison
anyone and he's an acquaintance of yours,
[18:20] Krishna
I can use my authority as vice captain
of the order to see him released.
[18:24] Zenos
Maybe go through due process instead?
[18:27] Krishna
If it's a request of yours, Mr. Zenos,
I'm prepared to bare it all,
[18:32] Krishna
embarrassing though it might be.
[18:33] Zenos
What are you even talking about?
[18:36] Umin
I don't care what authority you
have to use! Please, do it!
[18:43] Becker
Zenos.
[18:45] Zenos
What's up?
[18:46] Becker
I'm sure you've realized, but...
[18:49] Zenos
You're talking about the
Afread in the picture, right?
[18:51] Zenos
It's hard to believe he survived
having his life drained by Goldran,
[18:54] Zenos
considering the situation.
[18:56] Becker
Right. Which raises the question:
who was the Afread I encountered?
[19:01] Becker
Or maybe... What was he?
[19:04] Becker
This may not be as simple as
revenge for thirteen years ago.
[19:08] Becker
And you were the one who foiled his plans.
[19:13] Becker
He may turn his ire toward you next, Zenos.
[19:17] Zenos
I'd rather avoid any trouble,
[19:20] Zenos
but if this guy really does show up,
[19:22] Zenos
I'll hit him with a bill for
all the trouble he's caused.
[19:27] Becker
It's reassuring to know he's out there.
[19:29] Krishna
Yeah.
[19:31] Krishna
And if I'm being honest,
I'm a bit jealous that Mr. Zenos
[19:35] Krishna
went out of his way to come and visit you.
[19:38] Becker
Being honest with me, eh?
[19:40] Becker
But it was likely for Umin's sake.
[19:43] Krishna
I like that even less.
[19:45] Becker
She was a part of my minor laboratory,
[19:48] Becker
on top of being my niece.
[19:50] Becker
My being under suspicion of murder
puts her in a precarious position,
[19:55] Becker
which is why he wanted my
innocence on the record.
[19:59] Krishna
He'd go so far for that girl?
[20:01] Becker
"I'd pick up all the coins."
[20:04] Becker
Something Zenos said.
[20:06] Becker
All the coins...
[20:09] Becker
The lives he intended to save didn't just
include the poisoned healers, but Umin, as well.
[20:15] Becker
Even Goldran.
[20:16] Becker
He could've ignored him and let him die,
[20:18] Becker
so he was saved in a sense, as well.
[20:21] Krishna
In that case, I'd say you were
one of those coins, as well.
[20:30] Becker
He really is a remarkable fellow.
[20:36] Guide
I was looking forward
to this experiment, too.
[20:39] Guide
Zenos, you and I just keep
running into each other.
[20:44] Guide
How do people think and react
in extreme circumstances?
[20:49] Guide
I could've gained even more valuable
data if he hadn't gotten in the way.
[20:56] Guide
Afread, this vessel of yours isn't bad at all.
[21:01] Guide
You'll be staying with me a bit longer.
[21:09] Zenos
Well, I'm off.
[21:11] Umin
You're the one who prevented
the group poisoning.
[21:14] Umin
I hate that everyone being half-conscious
means you won't get the credit for it.
[21:20] Cresson
Ditto.
[21:22] Zenos
Nah. This is all the reward I need.
[21:25] Lily
Let's go, Zenos.
[21:27] Lily
Everyone's waiting.
[21:29] Zenos
Time to take off, then.
[21:31] Lily
See you around, Umin!
[21:34] Lily
And you, too, my weird big brother!
[21:36] Umin
Right. Thank you both for so much!
[21:39] Cresson
Little sis! I'm psyched you finally
called me "big brother" in the end!
[21:44] Cresson
I love ya!
[21:57] Zenos
Goodbye, Royal Hospital.
[22:01] Carmilla
"And so, having resolved the incident,
Zenos the underground healer
[22:05] Carmilla
went on to get caught in another mess."
[22:08] Zenos
Seriously, stop making ominous declarations!
[23:45] Lily
Coming!
[23:48] Lily
Hello.
[23:50] Lily
Come right in.
[23:51] Lily
Are you a new patient?
