[00:06] Alice
    Big Brother!
[00:11] Noir
    Y-You sure like to get up close
    and personal, Alice.
[00:15] Father
    Stare...
[00:16] Alice
    I wanted to share in your
    good fortune, as well!
[00:20] Alice
    You were accepted into
    the Hero Academy, after all!
[00:23] Noir
    R-Right...
[00:25] Alice
    You're basically the head
    of our household now!
[00:28] Father
    Alice, don't say that! My dignity!
[00:31] Noir
    F-Father!
[00:32] Noir
    I need to talk to you
    about the Hero Academy.
[00:35] Noir
    You see, there's an enrollment fee...
[00:38] Father
    Enrollment fee?
[00:40] Father
    I have some money saved up. How much is it?
[00:45] Noir
    Three hundred thousand rels.
[00:47] Father
    Three hundred...
[00:48] Noir
    Within a week.
[00:50] Father
    A week...
[00:52] Father
    Will a year work?
[00:54] Noir
    Very well. I'll earn the money myself.
[00:56] Father
    I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!
[01:01] Alice
    My poor, unfortunate brother.
[01:06] Olivia
    Three hundred thousand rels
    to get into the school, eh?
[01:09] Olivia
    That's probably a bit harsh
    for a poor noble like you.
[01:13] Noir
    I don't think you needed to be
    that blunt about it, but yeah.
[01:17] Olivia
    Then why don't you fight some rare monsters
    in this dungeon and sell them off?
[01:22] Noir
    I'd rather not bring that
    much attention to myself.
[01:25] Noir
    Especially after the entrance exam.
[01:28] (Flashback) Noir
    Could you just say it was you
    who defeated the Dead Reaper?
[01:32] (Flashback) Lenore
    What?
[01:34] (Flashback) Noir
    People would have an easier time believing
    the daughter of an earl defeated it
[01:37] (Flashback) Noir
    than the son of a baronet.
[01:39] (Flashback) Lenore
    Very well. I'll say that I defeated it.
[01:44] (Flashback) Noir
    Thanks.
[01:45] Noir
    I ended up letting my vain classmate
    take the credit for it.
[01:50] Olivia
    Then I guess there's only one way.
[01:56] Olivia
    Work at the adventurers' guild.
[02:00] Noir
    E-Excuse me...
[02:02] Guild Master
    What?
[02:09] Lola
    Sir, please don't intimidate the newbie.
[02:17] Lola
    I'm the receptionist, Lola.
[02:25] Lola
    Is this your first time
    at the adventurers' guild?
SIGN    #02 "The Guild and the Receptionist"
[04:03] Lola
    First, allow me to explain the
    very simple system we use here.
[04:07] Noir
    S-Sure.
[04:10] Lola
    There are many prominent
    adventurers who belong to Odin.
[04:15] Lola
    We have adventurers harvest plants,
[04:18] Lola
    cull monsters, explore dungeons,
    and complete various other quests.
[04:24] Lola
    Adventurers have ranks, which
    affect the quests they can take
[04:26] Sign
    Master
[04:26] Sign
    Newbie
[04:28] Lola
    and the rewards they receive.
[04:30] Lola
    Of course, those who show
    consistent results may rank up.
[04:35] Lola
    In order to join the guild,
    we'll need you to register.
[04:41] Noir
    Oh, sure. That'll be fine.
[04:45] Lola
    First, I'll need you to write down
    all the skills you currently have.
[04:49] Noir
    My skills?
[04:51] Lola
    Have no fear.
[04:53] Lola
    All that information will be
    classified with the guild.
[04:58] Noir
    She smells so nice...
[05:02] Noir
    I wrote them all down.
[05:05] Lola
    Er, Noir...
[05:07] Noir
    Y-Yes?
[05:08] Lola
    I'd appreciate it if you didn't kid around.
[05:11] Lola
    We don't have an endless supply of paper.
[05:13] Noir
    Oh, right. O-Of course.
[05:16] Noir
    I'm sure Get Creative and Editor
    probably sound pretty weird.
[05:19] Lola
    No, I'm aware of those skills.
[05:21] Lola
    Because...
[05:23] Lola
    This is Odin, the guild that
    Olivia Servant was a member of.
[05:28] Noir
    What?! Master was in this guild?
[05:31] Lola
    Master?
[05:33] Noir
    Crap! I let the cat out of the bag.
[05:35] Lola
    We do get people like you every now and then...
[05:38] Lola
    People who claim to be Olivia's successor.
[05:42] Lola
    In that case...
[05:44] Lola
    Let's find out the truth.
[05:47] Lola
    When you touch this Discerning Tome,
    your skills appear in writing.
[05:52] Lola
    Well? What will it be?
[05:53] Lola
    You still have a chance to
    take back what you said.
[05:56] Noir
    Oh, no. I'll go ahead and do this.
[05:58] Lola
    Huh?
[05:59] Noir
    But what happens if I'm not lying?
[06:03] Lola
    Well...
[06:05] Lola
    How about I lift up my skirt and say,
    "I'm terribly sorry, Lord Noir."
[06:13] Noir
    Well, if you're sure...

[06:26] Lola
    Olivia's s-s-s-successor?!
[06:29] Noir
    So, what were you going to do again?
[06:33] Noir
    Weren't you supposed to say,
    "Lord Noir, I love you"?
[06:37] Noir
    While lifting up your skirt.
[06:44] Lola
    L-Lord Noir...
[06:49] Lola
    I-I love you...
SIGN    Noir Stardia
[06:59] Lola
    So, what kind of quest would you like?
[07:02] Lola
    You'll have to start at Rank E.
[07:04] Noir
    She got over that fast!
[07:06] Noir
    Actually, I need to get
    300,000 rels in a week.
[07:10] Lola
    In that case...
[07:13] Lola
    How about catching these?
[07:16] Noir
    Rainbow grasshoppers?
[07:17] Noir
    Their habitat is known,
[07:20] Noir
    but they're super rare bugs
    that are seldom seen, right?
[07:23] Lola
    This was a D-Rank quest,
[07:25] Lola
    but we started taking
    E-Rank applicants, as well.
[07:27] Noir
    So I'm guessing you couldn't find
    anyone to take the quest...
[07:31] Lola
    Correct. But, Noir, you have a useful skill
[07:33] Lola
    that should help you out.
[07:35] Noir
    Oh, you're right.
[07:38] Lola
    Good luck, Noir. I have very
    high hopes for you.
[07:42] Lola
    I find capable men very attractive.
[07:46] Noir
    I-It's hard to believe she doubted
    me a few moments ago...
[07:54] Noir
    The grasshoppers' habitat
    should be around here.
[07:57] Noir
    If I use the Great Sage skill
    that answers any question,
[08:01] Noir
    I should be able to find them quickly.
[08:04] Noir
    But kisses are absolutely necessary
    to avoid the headache side effect.
[08:08] Noir
    Wait. If I use Get Creative
    to make Headache Immunity...
SIGN    Headache Immunity

[08:25] Noir
    Great Sage, where are
    the rainbow grasshoppers?
[08:30] Great Sage
    The closest one to this location is 310
    meters to the south, behind a boulder.
[08:37] Noir
    Yeah, it definitely hurts.
[08:39] Noir
    But... it's not unbearable.
[08:47] Noir
    Sweet. I found it pretty quickly.
[08:50] Noir
    But headaches seriously suck.
[08:52] Noir
    It'd be nice to just have Emma here with me...
[08:55] Emma
    Noir, you doofus!
[09:01] Noir
    Emma! Perfect timing, as always!
[09:05] Noir
    And your boobs are still...
[09:09] Emma
    Noir, you became an adventurer?!
[09:12] Noir
    H-How'd you find out about that?
[09:14] Emma
    I went to your house,
    and they said you went to the guild.
[09:16] Emma
    Then I went to the guild, and...
[09:18] Emma
    Actually, the details don't matter!
[09:20] Emma
    How could you do this
    without talking to me first?
[09:24] Noir
    S-Sorry. I thought it might
    be too dangerous for you.
[09:28] Emma
    Ugh! Don't you remember our
    promise from six years ago?
[09:32] Noir
    Six years ago?
[09:35] Noir
    When we were playing together
[09:37] Noir
    and I yelled, "We'll be together forever,
    until death do us part?"
[09:41] Emma
    Yeah. So I'll look for these
    grasshoppers with you!
[09:46] Emma
    You'll be using Great Sage, right?
[09:48] Emma
    So, you know...
[09:49] Noir
    Oh, you don't have to kiss me anymore.
    I learned Headache Immunity.
[09:53] Emma
    Huh?!
[09:54] Noir
    B-But, I mean, it's basically a greeting,
    so you can give me one anytime.
[09:58] Noir
    And we've been friends forever.
[09:59] Noir
    And even with the immunity,
    I still get a slight headache...
[10:04] Emma
    R-Really? In that case...
[10:06] Noir
    O-Okay.
[10:15] Noir
    Though, honestly, this headache
    is quite manageable.
[10:27] Lola
    Thank you for your patience.
[10:30] Lola
    I have your 250,000 rels here.
[10:32] Noir
    T-Two hundred and fifty thousand?!
[10:34] Lola
    Yes. At this rate,
    you'll rank up in no time.
[10:38] Noir
    G-Great.
[10:39] Lola
    So you're capable and hardworking.
[10:42] Lola
    You truly are a fine gentleman.
[10:46] Lola
    And because you're such a fine gentleman,
    I have another quest for you.
[10:50] Lola
    It's a quest to take care of some monsters.
[10:52] ---
    Th-Thank you very much.
[10:55] Lola
    Feel free to ask me any
    questions you might have.
[11:00] Emma
    Hang on a second!
[11:03] Emma
    I'm going to become an adventurer
    so I can come with you on this quest, Noir.
[11:07] Noir
    Y-Your boobs...
[11:09] Lola
    You? An adventurer?
[11:12] Emma
    The name's Emma Brightness. Noir and I
    have been friends since we were kids.
[11:23] Noir
    Th-This can't be good...

    The Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter.
[11:35] Noir
    C-Calm down, you two.
[11:38] Lola
    I'm in charge of Noir.
    He is a valuable partner.
[11:41] Lola
    I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't interfere.
[11:43] Emma
    That's my line. We're together forever,
    until death do us part.
[11:48] Adventurer 1
    What's going on?
[11:49] Adventurer 2
    Are they having a lovers' spat?
[11:51] Adventurer 3
    Yeah! Fight more!
[11:52] Noir
    W-Well, this turned into a spectacle...
[11:56] Noir
    Emma! I'm so blessed
    to have you help me out!
[12:00] Emma
    R-Really?
[12:03] Noir
    And Lola, I'll do whatever it takes
    to give you the best results I can!
[12:07] Lola
    Oh, my.
[12:10] Lola
    I guess that's enough for today.
[12:11] Emma
    Yeah, I'll back off.
[12:13] Lola
    On behalf of Mr. Noir's looks.
[12:13] Emma
    On behalf of Noir's looks.
[12:16] Adventurer 1
    Aw, man.
[12:17] Adventurer 5
    They're done already?
[12:18] Adventurer 2
    Well, that was no fun.
[12:24] Lola
    Be safe out there.
[12:25] Lola
    Let's have dinner off the clock sometime.
[12:29] Noir
    Huh? I, uh...
[12:30] Emma
    You seriously had the nerve to
    do that right in front of me?!
[12:39] Emma
    Noir, you doofus. Don't you know
    girls can be conniving?
[12:42] Emma
    Go to dinner with her, and she'll
    drag you into a room and...
[12:45] Noir
    A-And...?
[12:47] Emma
    Maybe she'll dissect you.
[12:49] Noir
    N-No way!
[12:52] Emma
    Hey, there's a patch of grass missing.
[12:54] Emma
    I wonder if it's because the Big Rabbit
    that we're after ate some.
[12:58] Noir
    Yeah...
[12:59] Noir
    Apparently those rabbits are
    disrupting the ecosystem.
[13:03] Noir
    We'll get 50,000 rels if we get rid of them.
[13:08] Noir
    Goblins?
[13:09] Noir
    What are their levels?
SIGN    Goblin
[13:12] Noir

    Stay out of this. I'll defeat that thing myself.
[13:59] Noir
    What? But why?
[14:00] Emma
    Because...
[14:02] Emma
    If you do all the work, that girl's
    going to be all over you again!
[14:10] Noir
    It's so fast for its size!
[14:12] Noir
    But Emma's even faster!
[14:18] Noir
    Yeah...
[14:20] Noir
    She's like a butterfly dancing on the wind.

    Emma! This way!
[15:20] Noir
    L-Let's regroup here.
[15:24] Noir
    It'll probably come looking for us soon.
[15:27] Noir
    We need to figure out how
    to deal with that thing.
[15:29] Emma
    Why couldn't I defeat it?
[15:31] Emma
    I kept slicing at it.
[15:33] Noir
    Maybe its skin was too thick and
    you just couldn't reach its vital point.
[15:37] Emma
    I'm so weak...

    Did you see that?
[19:00] Noir
    I-I did, but... I've actually
    seen them plenty of times.
[19:06] Emma
    That's fine. You can keep looking
    at them, just for today.
[19:10] Noir
    Huh?
[19:12] Emma
    It's to thank you... for making me stronger!
[19:29] Lola
    Th-This is truly... proof that
    you completed your quest.
[19:32] Lola
    Did you really do this on your own?
[19:35] Noir
    Yes! Emma took down the
    Big Rabbit all on her own!
[19:39] Emma
    Lola...
[19:42] Emma
    Um... Thank you.
[19:44] Emma
    I gained some confidence
    because of this quest.
[19:48] Lola
    Oh, no... I apologize
    for my prior rudeness.
[19:52] Lola
    Congratulations on completing your quest.
[19:56] Noir
    Oh, hey. I heard that Big Rabbit
    flesh is delicious.
[20:00] Lola
    Yes. It's hard to come by.
[20:04] Lola
    I hear adventurers eat the meat
    right after they defeat them.
[20:07] Noir
    Well, you see, I happened to created
    a skill called Pocket Dimension
[20:09] Noir
    that allows me to store large
    items in another dimension.
[20:14] Noir
    Let's all have some together.
[20:17] Adventurer 5
    Whoa!
[20:18] Adventurer 6
    That's great!
[20:19] Lola
    You're amazing at your job and considerate...
[20:23] Lola
    How wonderful.
[20:26] Emma
    You're the best, Noir!
[20:36] Adventurer 7
    It smells wonderful!
[20:40] Noir
    There's plenty more!
[20:43] Adventurer 8
    It's so good!
[20:44] Adventurer 9
    This is the best!
