[00:01] Brod     If there were more healers like you, kid, [00:04] Brod     the world might be a better place. [00:08] Luciel     I feel like he's getting     a little ahead of himself. [00:13] Brod     I'm going to prohibit you from     leaving during your training. [00:18] Brod     You good with that? [00:19] Luciel     What?! [00:21] Luciel     So basically, I'll be trapped here     until I complete my training? SIGN    Mad Dash [00:24] Luciel     But it's not like I have anywhere     else to train if I turn him down... [00:30] Luciel     C-Can we make it a one-month commitment? [00:34] Brod     Fine by me. [00:36] Brod     I want you to realize     how useful you are here. [00:39] Luciel     Then please work with me     for the next month. [00:42] Brod     You got it. For a month, I'll work you hard     until you're really ready to train. [00:48] Luciel     Yes, sir! [00:49] Luciel     Er, is it okay to make this kind of deal? [00:53] Luciel     Won't the guild master be upset? [00:55] Brod     Nah. I've got plenty of authority     around here. Don't sweat it. [00:59] Luciel     For real?! [01:01] Luciel     I get martial arts training     and three meals a day? [01:04] Luciel     And there's a good chance my     other skills will increase, too! [01:10] Monster Luck-sensei     Ya did it, my boy! [01:12] Luciel     This must be the work     of Monster Luck-sensei! [01:16] Brod     Hmm? SIGN    The Great Cleric SIGN    A Salaryman's Path to Surviving Another World SIGN    #3 A Talent for Martial Arts [02:54] Luciel     Yeesh! [02:56] Luciel     That's so cold! [02:57] Brod     Here. Get changed. [02:59] Brod     Once you're dressed, come to the cafeteria. [03:01] Luciel     Y-Yes, sir. [03:05] Luciel     Phew. [03:06] Luciel     But what about my old clothes? [03:12] Luciel     Gross! [03:14] Luciel     Nanaella-san! [03:16] Nanaella     Good work today! [03:18] Nanaella     Thank you for treating those adventurers. [03:22] Luciel     Oh, no need to thank me for that. [03:25] Luciel     Anyway, what's up, Nanaella-san? [03:27] Nanaella     Brod-san asked me to come. [03:30] Nanaella     He told me to wash your     clothes, Luciel-sama. [03:33] Luciel     What a treat! [03:36] Luciel     No, no! I can't let you do that! [03:38] Nanaella     Huh? [03:40] Nanaella     You don't want beastfolk touching your things? [03:43] Luciel     No, that's not it! It actually     makes me really happy! [03:47] Luciel     But I can't let someone as pretty     as you do that for me, Nanaella-san. [03:58] Nanaella     It's okay! Just leave it to me! [04:00] Luciel     B-But it smells so sweaty... [04:03] Nanaella     I'll hang it up with the rest of     the guild laundry tomorrow, okay? [04:07] Luciel     U-Uh, I, um... [04:10] Luciel     Thank you very much! [04:12] Nanaella     Of course! [04:14] Luciel     Um, if there's anything I can     do in return, please let me know. [04:20] Nanaella     I'll take care of this! [04:21] Nanaella     Take care of this... Take care of this... [04:24] Luciel     I'll find a way to thank you someday. [04:28] Adventurer 1     Can I get one more? [04:30] Adventurer 2     Hey, how'd today go? [04:31] Adventurer 3     It was a disaster! [04:33] Adventurer ?     C'mon, have another drink! [04:35] Brod     Kid! [04:36] Brod     Hey. Over here. [04:38] Luciel     Y-Yes, sir! [04:42] Luciel     This reminds me of office get-togethers. [04:50] Luciel     Is there going to be a party? [04:52] Brod     This is all for you to eat. [04:54] Luciel     Huh?! All by myself? [04:56] Brod     You can take your time, but finish it off. [05:00] Brod     When you're done,     come back to the basement. [05:03] Luciel     I guess this is part of my training... [05:07] Luciel     Thanks for the food! [05:16] Luciel     Oh, yum! [05:24] Luciel     Now that was a meal! [05:29] Brod     Starting today, you can use this room. [05:31] Brod     Be sure to get enough rest. [05:33] Luciel     U-Um... [05:35] Luciel     Will there be others who need healing? [05:38] Brod     Yeah. But starting tomorrow,     you're gonna be busy. [05:42] Luciel     Okay! [05:45] Luciel     In that case, I'll get     plenty of sleep for tomorrow. [05:48] Luciel     Good night! [05:55] Luciel     I'm not sleepy at all yet! [05:57] Luciel     What time is it even? [05:59] Luciel     J-Just seven o'clock?! How could any     modern man go to bed this early?! [06:07] Luciel     Since I can't sleep anyway, [06:09] Luciel     maybe I should work on mastering     my skills to boost my levels. [06:13] Luciel     Okay! Time for a late shift! [06:16] Luciel     Stretch, stretch. [06:19] Luciel     Heal. SIGN    Meditation [06:22] Luciel     Stretch, stretch. [06:24] Luciel     Heal. [06:28] Brod     Wake up! It's chow time! [06:32] Brod     During your training, you'll take meals     here in the cafeteria, just like yesterday. [06:36] Luciel     Yes, sir! [06:38] Brod     Hey, Gulgar. This is Luciel. [06:41] Gulgar     Oh, so you're the one. SIGN    Gulgar [06:43] Gulgar     I'm Gulgar. [06:45] Gulgar     My cooking is the best! [06:48] Luciel     A bear?! [06:49] Luciel     Pleased to meet you.     Thanks for looking after me. [06:52] Gulgar     Yeah! Nice to meet ya. [06:54] Luciel     F-Forgive me for asking,     but what's your race? [06:59] Gulgar     As you can see, I'm a proud wolffolk! [07:03] Luciel     I've been tricked! [07:06] Gulgar     Anyhow, this drink is disgusting, [07:10] Gulgar     but the Sage of Time created it     and it's great for you. [07:14] Luciel     That color sure doesn't look good for you. [07:17] Gulgar     Drinking it makes your     muscle strength, endurance, SIGN    MUSCLE SIGN    ENDURANCE SIGN    REACTION TIME [07:21] Gulgar     reaction time, and other things     easier to improve. [07:24] Gulgar     The effect lasts... [07:25] Gulgar     for six hours. [07:26] Luciel     Wait, what? It's a cheat item! [07:29] Gulgar     The only hitch is it tastes like crap. [07:32] Gulgar     That's why nobody else wants     to drink it to get stronger. [07:34] Adventurer 1     He's gonna make him drink it! [07:39] Luciel     Is it really safe to consume? [07:41] Luciel     Judging by the color,     it looks like it'll wreck my guts. [07:45] Luciel     And why's it moving like that?! [07:47] Luciel     Still, it's a cheat item... [07:51] Luciel     Th-The stench is gonna rot my nose off! [07:54] Luciel     But if just drinking this     makes me stronger... [07:58] Luciel     I, Luciel, shall drink. [08:07] Luciel     Oh yeah, that's bad. [08:10] Luciel     The slimy feel it leaves on my tongue... [08:12] Luciel     The bitter, tangy mix with spicy     and sour flavors ravaging my mouth... [08:18] Luciel     I know exactly what this is. [08:20] Luciel     Substance X! [08:22] Luciel     X... X... X... SIGN    I want to spit it out... [08:31] Luciel     I want to spit it out immediately. [08:33] Luciel     To wash out the inside     of my mouth with pure water [08:37] Luciel     and inhale fresh, clean air. [08:40] Luciel     But the bear in front of me is     too scary. I can't spit it out. [08:44] Luciel     If I lose focus even a little,     I'll black out. [08:48] Luciel     I'll just have to chug it! [08:59] Gulgar     Holy... [09:02] Gulgar     Whoa! [09:04] Brod     He drank that crap? [09:06] Luciel     I downed the whole thing... [09:10] Luciel     M-My body feels like it's     overflowing with energy! [09:15] Luciel     Whoa! [09:18] Luciel     Whoa, whoa, whoa! [09:20] Luciel     Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... X! [09:24] Gulgar     Enough already. [09:25] Gulgar     Now eat that meat and go join Brod. [09:27] Luciel     Yes, sir! [09:37] Gulgar     I never thought he'd polish this off. [09:40] Gulgar     Gross! [09:42] Gulgar     Sheesh. This guy's got some guts. [09:47] Luciel     And now, it's been nearly a week     since I came to the Adventurers' Guild. [10:00] Brod     You done already? Do you want to die? [10:03] Luciel     Please keep teaching me, Instructor Brod! [10:07] Brod     All right. Very well. [10:09] Brod     Let's keep going! [10:11] Luciel     Why does he look so happy?! [10:15] Brod     Don't let your mind go blank     while defending! [10:18] Brod     There's purpose behind each attack! [10:20] Brod     Watch closely, think, and learn [10:22] Brod     like your life depends on it! [10:28] Luciel     My life, huh? [10:30] Luciel     When I listen to the instructor's     abuse... I mean, advice, [10:34] Luciel     I actually feel like     I can give this all I've got. [10:38] Luciel     He's so great. [10:45] Luciel     Obviously, I'm still an absolute beginner     with a mere week of experience. [10:50] Luciel     The best I can do right now is     keep this up and try to learn. [10:56] Luciel     Instructor Brod, [10:58] Luciel     please let me try that again! [11:00] Brod     Huh? [11:01] Brod     K-Kid... forcing a smile while you're     in that much pain is really creepy. [11:05] Luciel     Laughing helps loosen me up. [11:09] Luciel     But I promise that I will     eventually land an attack! [11:12] Brod     Oh? Looks like you still have     enough energy to talk trash. [11:17] Brod     Fine with me. I'll work you     down to the bone today! [11:23] Luciel     Oh no! I feel like I just     opened the gates of hell! [11:27] Cat Woman     Excuse me. [11:30] Cat Woman     I heard that you heal people here.     Is it really for free? [11:34] Luciel     A catfolk person! [11:37] Luciel     It is. I'll treat you at no charge. [11:39] Luciel     Where are you injured? [11:42] Cat Woman     I was bit on the back by a wererat. [11:50] Luciel     I can close the wound with a heal spell, [11:53] Luciel     but since you were bitten,     this could lead to the spread of disease. [11:57] Luciel     If you start to feel ill,     please visit a doctor. [12:01] Luciel     For now, I'll treat you. [12:03] Cat Woman     Okay. [12:04] Luciel     O Lord, I offer up my magic     so that I may mend this wound. [12:09] Luciel     Heal! [12:18] Luciel     Okay! That should do it. [12:28] Luciel     Wait, what? [12:30] Luciel     Did I say something wrong? [12:32] Adventurer 1     Hey, healer. [12:35] Luciel     Yes? No, I wasn't teasing her! [12:37] Adventurer 1     What's your name? [12:39] Luciel     I-I'm Luciel. [12:42] Adventurer 1     Looks like you'll use your magic     even on us beastfolk, Luciel. [12:50] Luciel     Humans and beastfolk alike,     you're all patients to me. [12:54] Adventurer 1     Luciel, you're a pretty good guy. [12:58] Adventurer 1     Can we come back if we get injured again? [13:01] Luciel     Yeah. Anytime. [13:03] Cat Woman     Luciel! [13:05] Cat Woman     Thank you! [13:08] Cat Woman     I'll come see you if I get hurt again! [13:10] Luciel     S-Sure! [13:17] Adventurer 1     Still, I can't believe you're doing it. [13:19] Luciel     What? [13:20] Adventurer 1     You know, training. [13:21] Adventurer 1     That dude turns into     a totally different person. [13:24] Luciel     I guess. [13:26] Adventurer 1     We adventurers all avoid     training with Brod-san. [13:31] Luciel     Why couldn't someone     have told me that sooner? [13:36] Luciel     Thank you for the meal! [13:38] Gulgar     Now then, [13:39] Gulgar     you want to get strong quickly, right? [13:42] Luciel     There it is! Substance X! [13:45] Luciel     "Disgusting" doesn't even begin to cover it. [13:49] Luciel     Even if it makes me stronger, I wish     they'd give me a break with that stuff. [13:55] Luciel     What was that all about? [13:57] Luciel     Huh? [14:00] Luciel     Hmm?! [14:05] Luciel     I feel like I'm being watched. [14:09] Luciel     I train from seven in the morning     to seven at night. [14:13] Luciel     I have three huge meals a day. [14:15] Luciel     Then at night, I practice     my magic control and handling. [14:20] Luciel     I'm getting used to this routine. [14:23] Luciel     With assess mastery, I can tell      I'm actually improving. [14:27] Luciel     This might actually be a pretty     fulfilling lifestyle for me. [14:33] Luciel     But still... why were     those people watching me? [14:44] Brod     What'd you want to talk about, kid? [14:46] Luciel     It feels like a bunch of people     are watching me recently. [14:51] Luciel     Huh? [14:57] Luciel     So you two were behind it after all! [14:59] Luciel     Why am I under surveillance? [15:02] Brod     Sorry! Everyone's worried     you might run away. [15:07] Luciel     Run away? [15:09] Brod     Most people trying to become     adventurers weren't born into wealth. [15:13] Brod     So they take on risky requests     and pay the price. [15:18] Brod     But even though they get hurt,     without any money to live on, [15:22] Brod     they keep forcing themselves     to take on dangerous requests. [15:27] Luciel     I get it. [15:29] Luciel     As long as I'm here, they     can get their injuries treated [15:33] Luciel     and go right back out to work. [15:36] Luciel     Without realizing it, the adventurers'     fate has been left in my hands. [15:43] Luciel     Anyway, I agreed to stay for a month, [15:47] Luciel     so until that's up, give me some credit     and call off the watch. [15:52] Brod     Very well. [15:53] Luciel     I'm being serious here, okay? [15:55] Luciel     The next time I catch someone watching me, [15:58] Luciel     I'll drag them here and make them     drink that with me, got it? [16:06] Luciel     Of course, since you're in charge,     I'll make you drink it too, Brod. [16:11] Luciel     And so, the month started flying by. [16:15] Luciel     Though something interesting happened... [16:19] Cat Woman     Meow, Luciel! [16:21] Cat Woman     Thanks for healing me before.     I'll be counting on you next time too. [16:24] Luciel     Sure! No problem. [16:26] Luciel     More people have started talking to me. [16:29] Luciel     I hope this helps me get     accustomed to adventurers. [16:34] Luciel     Then there's my all-important training. [16:41] Luciel     I've started doing more target practice. [16:43] Brod     Kid! Get serious about this! [16:45] Luciel     Yes, sir! [16:47] Luciel     I thought my baseball     experience would pay off, [16:50] Luciel     but at this rate, I have to wonder when     he'll let me throw real weapons. [16:56] Luciel     Yup. It's dawned on me that     even when my month is up, [16:59] Luciel     I still won't have mastered anything. [17:03] Luciel     Realistically, I have a long way to go     before I'm fit for fighting outside. [17:08] Luciel     But I've made up my mind... for now... [17:11] Luciel     For now, patience can cook a stone! [17:13] Brod     What the hell are you excited for?! [17:15] Brod     You missed every single one! [17:17] Luciel     I got one, though! [17:18] Brod     Don't you talk back to me! [17:19] Luciel     Sir! [17:23] Luciel     My portions of Substance X got bigger, [17:27] Luciel     I got more healing requests... [17:30] Luciel     And the last day of my contract finally came. [17:33] Brod     You really worked hard this month. [17:36] Luciel     Under your guidance.     Thank you so much for everything. [17:39] Luciel     Now I'll go back to the Healers'     Guild to look for work. [17:42] Luciel     When I've saved up enough money,     please train me again. [17:44] Brod     Money? [17:46] Brod     That's right.     You said you were basically broke. [17:49] Luciel     That's right. I have to pay my offering     to the Healers' Guild. [17:54] Brod     What would you do if you did have money? [17:56] Luciel     What? [17:57] Brod     For example, if someone gave you     the money for a year's offering? [18:02] Luciel     I don't know... [18:05] Luciel     If it'd be all right,     I'd like to train with you more. [18:10] Brod     This is for making it through a month of     training and saving those adventurers' lives. [18:15] Brod     A reward! [18:17] Brod     Take it. [18:18] Luciel     Yes... sir. [18:22] Luciel     Huh? This much?! [18:24] Brod     Twelve silver coins.     Use that and go pay your offering. [18:30] Brod     Thanks to you, the death rate     for adventurers has dropped sharply. [18:35] Brod     Consider it a special bonus. [18:37] Luciel     But this is a lot of money, isn't it? [18:40] Luciel     I can't possibly accept... [18:41] Brod     Just take it. [18:44] Brod     Your martial arts skill is still infantile. [18:47] Brod     So starting today, you'll keep on training. [18:51] Brod     If you're on board, then go pay up. [18:56] Luciel     Understood. [18:58] Luciel     I'll gladly accept this and pay my fees. [19:01] Adventurer 2     Be sure to come back, okay? [19:03] Adventurer 4     We'll be waiting for you, Luciel. [19:06] Luciel     Yeah! I'll definitely be back! [19:12] Monika     That will cover your offering for one year. [19:15] Monika     But are you sure about doing this? [19:18] Monika     If you get promoted within the year,     you'll be assessed an additional offering. [19:25] Luciel     I'm sure. [19:27] Luciel     For now, instead of ranking up, [19:29] Luciel     I need to focus on becoming strong     enough to become independent. [19:32] Monika     Well, it certainly does take     a lot of funds to open a clinic. [19:37] Luciel     When I've earned enough,     I'll come for my promotion. [19:40] Monika     All right. Keep up the good work, okay? [19:49] Brod     I'm glad you came back. [19:51] Luciel     Um, were you waiting here for me? [19:57] Brod     I-I just happened to be passing through. [20:01] Brod     Nanaella, do you have     the kid's adventurer card? [20:04] Nanaella     Yes, right here. [20:06] Brod     Renew it for me. [20:07] Nanaella     Understood! [20:10] Luciel     Don't you need my permission to do that?! [20:12] Brod     Okay, no need to worry about the contract now! [20:15] Luciel     Hey! Instructor Brod! [20:17] Nanaella     Do your best, okay? [20:18] Luciel     Somebody help! [20:20] Luciel     Nobody's even lifting a finger! [20:28] Luciel     Thank you for the meal. [20:30] Brod     All right, all right, all right! SIGN    All right,     all right,     all right! SIGN    W     A     A     A     H [20:32] Luciel     Today's training felt even harder than usual. [20:36] Brod     Hey, kid. [20:37] Luciel     Yes? [20:38] Brod     This is for you. [20:42] Luciel     Encyclopedia of Low-Level Holy Magic? [20:46] Luciel     Is this a spell tome? [20:47] Gulgar     Yup. [20:48] Brod     A treat for coming home on time. [20:51] Luciel     Do you think I'm a child? [20:54] Brod     Healers need the recovery spell heal     and the detoxification spell cure. [20:58] Brod     Once you can cast both, you'll be     on your way to becoming the real deal. [21:01] Brod     You can only use heal now, can't you? [21:04] Brod     So read that book and study up. [21:15] Brod     What's so damn funny?! [21:16] Luciel     Wha—? Is Brod actually     a sweetie underneath it all? [21:24] Luciel     Instructor, thank you very much. [21:27] Luciel     Starting again today, I will try     my very best, so please train me more! [21:32] Brod     Sure. [21:33] Gulgar     Heya, kid! [21:35] Gulgar     If you're gonna work your hardest,     drink up beforehand! [21:38] Luciel     Substance X! [21:40] Brod     Finish that off and let's     get to afternoon training! [21:43] Luciel     Come drink it with me, Instructor Brod! [21:45] Brod     I don't need it.     I'll be waiting for you! [21:49] Gulgar     C'mon, kid! [21:54] Luciel     All right. [22:05] Luciel     This really is disgusting! [22:07] Luciel     Damn that Brod! For this... [22:11] Luciel     I swear I'll knock you out in the next year! SIGN    I got super tough! [22:18] Luciel     Thank you very much! [22:20] Luciel     Now the real training begins! [23:55] Gulgar     Hey, guys! What did you think of my cooking? [23:57] Gulgar     Mountains of delicious grub!     Sounds like a dream, right? [24:00] Gulgar     Luciel even drank that... [24:02] Gulgar     Phew! That surprised me! [24:04] Gulgar     Next time: "Substance X and a Small Change." SIGN    #4 Substance X and a Small Change [24:07] Gulgar     If ya don't watch it,     you're getting Substance X!
