[01:52] Noir
    I, Noir Stardia,
    am the third son of a noble.
[01:56] Noir
    After graduating from the
    Jastal Preparatory School,
[01:59] Noir
    I decided to pursue a career
    instead of higher education.
[02:05] Noir
    Today was supposed to be
    my first day on the job, but...
[02:11] Noir
    Father? Mother? What's wrong?
[02:14] Father
    Well, that library you're
    supposed to work at...
[02:18] Noir
    Yes, today's my first day.
[02:20] Father
    Actually, the viscount's son interfered,
[02:24] Father
    and you won't be able to work there after all.
[02:26] Noir
    Huh?
SIGN    Aristocratic Society
[02:30] Noir
    We may be nobles, but the Stardia
    family only held a baronetcy.

[02:36] Noir
    We're just poor nobles who stand no
    chance against anyone ranked higher.
[02:42] Noir
    Father, please raise your head.
[02:45] Noir
    I absolutely deplore you...
    I mean, adore you, Father.
[02:48] Noir's Father
    You totally meant the first part!
[02:51] Noir
    But I guess the real question is...
    what do I do now?
[02:54] Noir
    You shitty father... I mean, Father.
[02:57] Noir's Father
    You didn't even hesitate that time!
    I felt that malice!
[03:00] Noir's Father
    I feel your anger, my son!
[03:03] Alice
    I will not accept this!
[03:05] Alice
    Who is this fiend who took
    my dearest brother's position?
[03:08] Alice
    I will go talk to them personally!
[03:09] Noir
    Alice, I appreciate it, but we're
    talking about the son of a viscount.
[03:15] Noir's Father
    Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
[03:17] Alice
    But... that's simply not fair,
    my dear brother!
[03:20] Alice
    I know! Why not take the exam
    for the Hero Academy?
[03:25] Noir
    The Hero Academy, eh?
[03:28] Noir
    Those who graduate from the Hero Academy
    can become monster hunters or royal knights.
[03:33] Noir
    Basically, you're set for life if you make it there.
[03:38] Noir
    I'd never pass.
[03:40] Alice
    You should at least try!
[03:42] Alice
    If you don't make it,
    I'll take care of you myself!
[03:45] Noir
    Th-Thanks...
[03:51] Emma
    Noir!
[03:56] Emma
    Hey!
[03:59] Emma
    Morning!
[04:00] Noir
    Morning, Emma.
[04:02] Noir
    This is Emma Brightness.
[04:05] Noir
    She was born into a barony,
    meaning her family is wealthy,
[04:08] Noir
    but our parents are friends,
[04:10] Noir
    and she's been my friend since we were kids.
[04:12] Emma
    We're both going to be
    librarians starting today!
[04:15] Emma
    Let us do our best!
[04:17] Noir
    Actually, about that, Emma...
[04:20] Emma
    What?!
[04:22] Emma
    Th-Th-Then... you can't be a librarian?
[04:26] Noir
    No...
[04:28] Emma
    But...
[04:31] Noir
    Y-You're that disappointed?
[04:33] Emma
    Well, I mean...
[04:34] Emma
    I had some really good news!
[04:38] Emma
    About your skill.
[04:40] Noir
    Skill? You mean my Great Sage skill?

[04:43] Noir
    The Great Sage skill 
    is my one and only skill.
SIGN    Tells the user everything about the world
    (even the unexplained).
[04:46] Noir
    It tells me everything about the world.
[04:49] Noir
    It's a pretty rare skill.
[04:51] Noir
    My parents jumped for joy when they
    had my skill appraised at the church.
[04:51] (Flashback) Dad
    Fantastic, my son!
[04:53] (Flashback) Mom
    Oh, how wonderful!
[04:56] Noir
    But...
[04:58] Noir
    I can't use the Great Sage skill.
SIGN    Q: What's tomorrow's
        weather forecast?
[05:01] Noir
    Well, actually, I can...
SIGN    A: It'll be sunny!
[05:03] Noir
    But every time I use it,
[05:05] Noir
    I'm plagued with a headache
    so bad that I wish for death.
[05:08] Noir
    Which is why I don't use it.
[05:11] Emma
    I just happened to be going through
    the ancient texts yesterday,
[05:15] Emma
    and I found this passage...
[05:17] Emma
    "Whenever the great sage of old, Marlin,
    was plagued with terrible headaches,
[05:22] Emma
    he demanded kisses from his wives."
[05:26] Noir
    Why, though?
[05:28] Emma
    They must've been effective
    against his headaches! Duh!
[05:32] Noir
    What?
[05:33] Emma
    Th-That makes sense, doesn't it?
[05:37] Noir
    Actually, you might have a point.
[05:41] Emma
    D-Do you want to give it a try?
[05:44] Noir
    Are you sure?
[05:45] Emma
    W-W-Well, who else are
    you going to try that with?!
[05:48] Emma
    It's just a kiss! And we've known
    each other forever...
[05:51] Emma
    And we're totally adults!
[05:55] Noir
    In that case...
[05:56] Emma
    Huh?!
[06:01] Emma
    W-Wait.
[06:03] Emma
    Let's find a better spot...
[06:13] Emma
    Y-You can go ahead.
[06:19] Noir
    I hope you're ready.
[06:38] Emma
    You can do it!
[06:43] Noir
    Answer my query, Great Sage.
[06:48] Great Sage
    As you wish.
[06:50] Noir
    I want to become stronger so I can pass
    the exam for the Hero Academy.
[06:53] Noir
    What's the most efficient way
    to become stronger?
[06:56] Great Sage
    Explore a hidden dungeon.
[06:58] Noir
    A hidden dungeon? Where's the closest one?
[07:02] Great Sage
    There lies a cave 15,000 meters
    southwest of here.
[07:06] Great Sage
    Activate the switch in the wall,
    and you will find the Infinite Labyrin—
[07:12] Noir
    My head's killing me!
[07:14] Emma
    Should we kiss again?
[07:15] Noir
    Yes, please!
[07:25] Noir
    My headache's fading...
[07:40] Emma
    Does... your head still hurt?
[07:43] Noir
    Yeah.
[07:52] Noir
    I've got all the right gear.
[07:54] Noir
    I even borrowed a sword from Father.
[08:05] Noir
    Is this where the switch is?
[08:22] Great Sage
    You will need a spell to open the door.
[08:25] Great sage
    And that spell is...
[08:29] Noir
    "Hidden dungeon only I can enter!
[08:32] Noir
    Let me train in secret to become
    the strongest in the world!"
[08:50] Olivia
    This way.
[09:12] Noir
    U-Um... You are alive, right?
[09:16] Olivia
    Touch my head.
[09:24] Olivia
    I am Olivia Servant!
[09:24] Sign
    I am Olivia Servant
    a totally super-awesome adventurer
[09:26] Olivia
    A totally super-awesome adventurer!
[09:29] Olivia
    You see, I happened to stumble upon
    this hidden dungeon on one of my walks.
[09:33] Olivia
    I figured out how to get in all by myself.
[09:36] Olivia
    I ran into a monster on the second floor
    and decimated it in two seconds.
[09:40] Olivia
    Things were going peachy,
[09:43] Olivia
    but then a trap activated.
[09:47] Olivia
    I've been tied up in here
    for 200 years since then.
[09:50] Noir
    For 200 years?! I'll undo your restraints right—
[09:52] Olivia
    Nope, hold it. These are special
    chains called Death Chains.
[09:56] Olivia
    Cut them and say bye-bye to Olivia.
[09:59] Noir
    Huh? Then why did you call me here?
[10:02] Olivia
    I've been looking for someone to talk to.
[10:04] Olivia
    I figured no one would ever hear me,
    but you actually showed up!
[10:09] Olivia
    You have no idea how long 
    I've been waiting for this moment!
[10:14] Olivia
    Anyway, you must have real potential,
    considering you found this dungeon.
[10:19] Olivia
    What's your name?
[10:20] Noir
    It's Noir Stardia.
[10:22] Olivia
    Noir, eh?
[10:24] Olivia
    So what brought you here, anyway?
[10:26] Noir
    Well...
[10:30] Olivia
    Right. I got you.
[10:33] Olivia
    But I'm sure the Great Sage also said this!
[10:36] Olivia
    "The super-hot babe Olivia
    is sealed away in B2!"
[10:40] Noir
    Nope. He didn't say a word about you.
[10:42] Olivia
    Well, whatever.
    So you wanna get stronger, right?
[10:46] Olivia
    Then you can have my skills.
[10:49] Noir
    Huh?
[10:50] Olivia
    Well, I'm not going anywhere anytime soon...
[10:52] Olivia
    So just tap your forehead against mine.
[10:55] Noir
    L-Like this?
[11:01] Olivia
    Dun dun da-dun!
[11:03] Olivia
    You've quite literally got skills,
    Noir. Mine, that is.
[11:07] Olivia
    Now I can die without any regrets.
[11:11] Noir
    Wait! You can't just die now!
[11:13] Olivia
    Pfft. Like I'd actually die.
[11:15] Olivia
    You can address me as "Master" from now on.
[11:19] Olivia
    Now, I'll give you a simple
    rundown of my skills.
[11:23] Olivia
    The Get Creative skill.
[11:24] Olivia
    You can create pretty much any
    skill your mind can think of.
[11:28] Olivia
    The Bestow skill.

    You can give the skills you've
    created to other people or objects.

[11:49] Olivia
    To use any of these skills,

[12:00] Noir
    LP Conversion?
[12:02] Olivia
    If you do something that feels good,
    your satisfaction gets turned into LP.
[12:07] Noir
    Huh?
[12:08] Olivia
    For example, fulfilling your sexual desires.
[12:10] Olivia
    Getting close with a charming
     person of the opposite sex.
[12:13] Olivia
    Then there's hunger.
[12:14] Olivia
    Eating delicious foods and savoring
    delicacies are both effective.
[12:17] Olivia
    Finally, the desire for worldly things.
[12:19] Olivia
    Earn that dough and spend it
    like there's no tomorrow.
[12:22] Noir
    S-So you're telling me to be a hedonist.
[12:25] Olivia
    Oh, FYI, if your LP reaches zero, you die.
[12:29] Noir
    Maybe tell me that first.
[12:31] Olivia
    How much LP do you have right now?
[12:33] Olivia

[12:35] Noir

    This means I'll pass for sure!
[16:00] Noir
    I need to make sure I thank Emma properly.
[16:03] Emma
    Man, my shoulders are so stiff.
[16:06] Emma
    My chest is way too heavy.

[16:29] Emma
    Wh-What? Why?!
[16:32] Noir
    Now your shoulders won't be so stiff.
[16:35] Noir
    Don't worry, plenty of people
    love small boobs. Isn't that great?
[16:37] Emma
    Are you being serious right now?
[16:39] Noir
    Yup!
[16:40] Noir
    Though I definitely prefer them big.
[16:42] Emma
    Gimme back my boobs, you doofus!
[16:46] Noir
    I ended up having to use Editor
    to give her boobs back.
[16:50] Noir
    Talk about a waste of LP.

    They're totally different

[17:03] Director
    We will now begin the entrance exam.
[17:06] Director
    Your task is to collect raw
    materials from monsters.
[17:09] Director
    You'll be judged on how much you bring
    in and how rare the materials are.
[17:12] Director
    This will be a team effort in which
    you split up into groups of three.
[17:16] Director
    Return empty-handed, and you fail!
[17:18] Director
    That is all!
[17:19] Examinee 3
    We have to make a team?
[17:21] Examinee 4
    No one told us that before.
[17:22] Examinee 5
    I'd better hurry up and find people.
[17:25] Noir
    E-Excuse me. Would you like to...
[17:27] Examinee 6
    Hm? You reek of baronet stench.
[17:36] Noir
    Um...
[17:38] Examinee 7
    Yeah, I don't associate with trash.
[17:43] Noir
    Trash, huh?
[17:49] Emma
    Hey, wanna team up?
[17:51] Emma
    Heya, Noir!
[17:53] Noir
    E-Emma? What are you doing here?
[17:56] Noir
    What about your librarian job?
[17:58] Emma
    I quit. I figured I'd give the
    Hero Academy a shot, too.
[18:02] Noir
    I-I can't believe you quit that easily...
[18:05] Emma
    Well, I didn't get to be with you.
[18:07] Noir
    Huh?
[18:08] Emma
    Noir, you doofus. Come on, let's team up.

    Hey, want to team up?
[18:16] Lenore
    I'm Lenore Bludon.

    You don't need to be formal with me.

    I'm Emma Brightness, my la... Lenore.
[18:25] Lenore
    Brightness? Ah, a barony.
[18:29] Noir
    I'm Noir Stardia.
[18:31] Lenore
    I didn't ask for your name.
[18:34] Lenore
    Why would I bother remembering
    the name of a baronet?
[18:37] Noir
    Huh?
[18:38] Director
    Now, then...
[18:39] Director
    Gather as many materials
    as you can by noon tomorrow.
[18:44] Director
    You can obtain them in any way you'd like.
[18:46] Director
    Begin!
[18:47] Examinee 8
    The marketplace!
[18:48] Examinee 9
    I'm buying everything!
[18:49] Emma
    Y-You can buy the materials, too?
[18:52] Noir
    I guess so. He never said you had to
    actually defeat any monsters, so...
[18:56] Lenore
    Let's split up.
[18:59] Lenore
    Don't drag us down, Mr. Bottom
    of the Aristocratic Food Chain.
[19:04] Emma
    I guess the rich definitely
    have the upper hand.
[19:07] Noir
    Yeah...
[19:08] Emma
    What are you going to do, Noir?
[19:10] Emma
    If you're going to hunt for your
    materials, I'll come with you.
[19:13] Noir
    No, you wait here, Emma.
[19:16] Noir
    I have an idea.
[19:19] Noir
    I was sure there'd be plenty of rare
    monsters in a hidden dungeon.
[19:22] Noir
    And that's why I came to
    the third floor, but...
[19:27] Noir
    Are you serious right now?!

    I-I'm exhausted...
[21:03] Director
    And now I will announce the top three
    teams from the entrance exam results.
[21:08] Lenore
    He hasn't called our team at all.
[21:12] Noir
    Y-Yeah...
[21:14] Director
    In third place, Team Genos with 5,890 points.
[21:21] Director
    In second place, Team Elizabeth
    with 11,550 points.
[21:26] Lenore
    H-He still hasn't called us.
[21:28] Emma
    Maybe we didn't even rank...
[21:30] Noir
    W-We should be okay.
[21:33] Noir
    I mean, Master said...
[21:35] (Flashback) Noir
    It wouldn't be weird if I brought
    this to the exam, right?
[21:39] (Flashback) Olivia
    Nah.
[21:40] (Flashback) Olivia
    It's better than bringing a golden slime,
    which doesn't exist on this continent.
[21:43] (Flashback) Olivia
    They're grunts anyway, so you'll be fine.
[21:46] Noir
    B-But... if he doesn't call us...
[21:52] Director
    And in first place...
[21:56] Director
    Team Lenore with 128,000 points!
[22:01] Emma
    O-One hundred and twenty...
[22:03] Noir
    ...eight thousand...
[22:05] Director
    They had the skull of the extremely
    diabolical Dead Reaper among their materials.
[22:09] Director
    This means they pass and
    rewrite history with that score.
[22:12] Noir
    Wh-What were you saying
    about this being a grunt, Master?
[22:16] Olivia
    Whoops, my bad.
[22:19] Olivia
    A Dead Reaper is nothing to me,
[22:22] Olivia
    but I guess a student hunting
    them would be a miracle.
[22:25] Olivia
    Well, whatever.
[22:29] Noir
    And so, I safely passed the exam
    for the Hero Academy.
[22:33] Noir
    My family was ecstatic, and this
    brightened everyone's moods.
[22:37] Noir
    That is, until we saw the enrollment fee.
