[00:04] Emma
    Well, she's definitely from a duke's family.
[00:07] Noir
    Yeah, this is beyond generous.
[00:10] Luna
    Indeed. We should be grateful.
[00:12] Lola
    We did lose all of the money we won
    at the harem event, after all.
[00:18] Noir
    In return for breaking Miss Maria's curse,
[00:22] Noir
    to our surprise...
[00:24] Noir
    We each got 100 million rels.
[00:27] Luna
    I'm going to use mine to fix up my clinic.
[00:31] Noir
    I wonder what I'm going to do with all this.
[00:34] Emma
    Hey, why don't you use it to open up a shop?
[00:37] Noir
    A shop?
[00:38] Emma
    Maybe you could sell monster materials.
[00:41] Emma
    Remember? We talked about this before.
[00:43] Emma
    That's a decent future, no?
[00:46] Emma
    I'd be happy to help.
[00:48] Lola
    No, it's my admin and accounting
    skills that Noir needs.
[00:52] Lola
    Can boobs do calculations?
[00:54] Lola
    I think not.
[00:56] Emma
    Grr!
[00:59] Luna
    Come now, you two.
[01:01] Luna
    Arguing is never beautiful.
[01:03] Luna
    Let's just compromise
    and say Noir and I will...
[01:06] Emma
    That's not a compromise!
[01:08] Lola
    At all!
[01:12] Noir
    H-Hey... I'll contact you guys later.
[01:16] Noir
    So for today...
[01:18] Noir
    I'm out!
SIGN    #06 "The Tulip Lion"
[02:56] Noir's Dad
    Wh-Wh-Wh-Wha...
[02:59] Noir
    I received that for saving
    a duke's daughter.
[03:03] Noir
    Believe it or not, there's
    100 million rels in there!
[03:05] Noir's dad
    One hundred million?!
[03:08] Noir's Mom
    Oh, my.
[03:10] Alice
    That's amazing, Brother Dearest.
[03:12] Alice
    What are you going to do
    with all this money?
[03:16] Noir
    I'm not exactly sure yet.
[03:20] Noir's Dad
    Noir, I can't let you be the only
    breadwinner in this family.
[03:25] Noir's dad
    Why not leave this money with me?
[03:29] Noir
    Father...
[03:30] Noir's Dad
    Nay! Say no more!
[03:34] Noir
    You're planning to go
    to the casino, aren't you?
[03:36] Noir's dad
    Whoo! Hell yeah!
[03:38] Noir's dad
    You're so bright, my son!
    You totally get me!
[03:41] Alice
    To put it lightly, he's absolute trash.
[03:41] Noir's dad
    You're a mind reader!
[03:44] Noir's dad
    I never want to work again!
[03:44] Noir's Mom
    He brings shame upon our family.
[03:46] Noir's dad
    I know, right?
[03:49] Noir
    How about opening up a shop?
[03:51] Noir
    Maybe an item shop...
    one that handles rare materials.
[03:55] Noir
    I'll gather our goods.
[03:57] Noir's Mom
    Oh, my.
[03:58] Alice
    How wonderful!
[04:00] Noir's dad
    Hire me!
[04:02] Noir
    Then let's go with that.
[04:04] Noir
    Father, please find a good
    location and do the paperwork
[04:07] Noir
    we'll need to submit to the government.
[04:09] Noir's dad
    Leave it to me!
[04:11] Alice
    I'll keep a very close eye on him
    so that he doesn't pocket the money.
[04:16] Noir's Dad
    H-How little do you trust me?
[04:25] Noir
    And so, to collect monster materials...
[04:30] Noir
    I decided to conquer more of the dungeon.
[04:39] Noir
    Hello, Master.
[04:43] Noir
    Master? Are you sleeping?
[04:48] Noir
    M-Master?
[04:51] Noir
    Wait, it can't be...
[05:02] Noir
    I knew you were faking it.
    You sure love pulling pranks.
[05:07] Olivia
    Well, that's because you
    never come to see me!
[05:12] Noir
    Er, I just came here the other day.
[05:15] Olivia
    So what's up? Exploring the dungeon today?
[05:18] Noir
    Yes. I wanted to gather
    some treasures and materials.
[05:22] Noir
    And I'd like to get stronger.
[05:24] Olivia
    Then you should Get Creative and
    make the Dungeon Elevator skill
[05:27] Olivia
    so you can conquer it more efficiently.
[05:29] Olivia
    Once you've been to a floor,
    you can instantly travel there next time.
[05:35] Olivia
    Though once you use it, you won't be
    able to use it again for another hour.
[05:39] Noir
    That sounds great. I'll get right to it.

    I-It's sort of strange having

[06:14] Noir
    I didn't find any noteworthy monsters
    on the third or fourth floors.
[06:17] Noir
    Then I got to the fifth...
[06:22] Noir
    I sense a presence over there.
[06:27] Noir
    Did they fight and end up killing each other?
[06:31] Noir

[06:43] Noir

[07:13] Tigerson
    W-Wait, human. I must speak with you.
[07:17] Noir
    I-It talked?!
[07:21] Tigerson
    You have no reason to fear me.
[07:23] Tigerson
    I am not suspicious in the least.
[07:26] Noir
    Er, I'm not sure about that.
[07:29] Noir
    And...
[07:31] Noir
    Why does it have a tulip
    growing on its head?!
[07:34] Tigerson
    Human, having acknowledged the talent
    you must have to reach this floor,
[07:39] Tigerson
    I have a request.
[07:41] Tigerson
    I will take you to the
    sixth floor, and in return,
[07:45] Tigerson
    I would like you to search for someone.
[07:53] Noir
    I-I accepted his offer for a ride, but...
[08:05] Noir
    M-Mr. Lion, you're very strong.
[08:09] Tigerson
    My name is not Lion. I am Tigerson.
[08:12] Noir
    Tiger... Huh? Tiger?
[08:16] Tigerson
    My friend gave me this name.
[08:18] Tigerson
    It is my pride and joy.
[08:20] Noir
    I-I see...
[08:23] Noir
    Pleased to meet you. I'm Noir Stardia.
[08:25] Tigerson
    Noir... No need for formalities.
[08:28] Noir
    All right.
[08:30] Noir
    So who's this person you want
    me to find on the sixth floor?
[08:34] Tigerson
    My friend.
[08:41] Tigerson
    Long ago, I accompanied my friend here.
[08:45] Tigerson
    We made it to the fifth floor handily,
[08:47] Tigerson
    but then my friend said he'd
    explore the sixth on his own.
[08:51] (Flashback) Vashelle
    There'll be a lot of traps ahead.
[08:53] (Flashback) Vashelle
    Wait here. I'll use my
    skills to get rid of them.
[08:57] (Flashback) Vashelle
    I promise I'll be back.
[09:00] Tigerson
    So I've been waiting this whole time.
[09:04] Noir
    H-How long have you been waiting?
[09:07] Tigerson
    Around 350 years now.
[09:09] Noir
    Three hundred and fifty years?! Then, uh...
[09:13] Tigerson
    My friend is an elf.
[09:15] Tigerson
    Elves live long lives, some as long as 500 years.
[09:20] Noir
    I see. Still, you're very faithful.
[09:24] Noir
    You didn't consider just
    going to the sixth floor?
[09:26] Tigerson
    I promised my friend Vashelle
    that I would wait on the fifth floor.
[09:31] Tigerson
    A promise to a friend is absolute.
[09:36] Noir
    He's very considerate of his friend.
[09:40] Noir
    I left Tigerson behind
    and came to the sixth floor.
[09:46] Noir
    It's so dark.
[09:49] Noir
    Blinding Light is meant for blinding others.
[09:52] Noir
    It won't really help me look around.

    Wh-What happened?
[12:30] Noir
    Are you the elf named Vashelle?
[12:33] Vashelle
    Y-Yes, I am.
[12:36] Noir
    My name is Noir.
[12:38] Noir
    I actually need to talk to you.
[12:47] Vashelle
    Tigerson? Really?
[12:49] Noir
    Yes. As promised, he's been
    waiting on the fifth floor.
[12:52] Vashelle
    But...
[12:55] Vashelle
    It's been more than 300 years.
[13:00] Vashelle
    He's truly a great friend.
[13:03] Noir
    Yes.
[13:05] Vashelle
    I just randomly named him Tigerson,
    but he fell in love with the name.
[13:11] Vashelle
    Before I came to this dungeon,
[13:13] Vashelle
    he saved me, even though he didn't know me.
[13:18] Vashelle
    He tried to leave without saying a word,
    so I ended up asking him
[13:22] Vashelle
    if he'd like to be my friend.
[13:26] (Flashback) Tigerson
    The other 990,000 creatures I have
    encountered all pointed a weapon at me.
[13:33] (Flashback) Tigerson
    You're the only one who reached out to me.
[13:38] (Flashback) Tigerson
    I've never had a friend before.
[13:44] Vashelle
    After that, I came to this dungeon
    to search for a treasure to send
[13:48] Vashelle
    to my love back home.
[13:50] Vashelle
    I happened to find the
    password in an ancient text.
[13:54] Noir
    And that's how you and
    Tigerson got to the fifth floor.
[13:57] (Flashback) Vashelle
    There'll be a lot of traps ahead.
[14:00] (Flashback) Vashelle
    Wait here. I'll use my
    skills to get rid of them.
[14:04] (Flashback) Vashelle
    I promise I'll be back.
[14:07] Vashelle
    I can hardly call myself a friend if
    he's just protecting me all the time.
[14:12] Noir
    I totally get that.
[14:14] Noir
    Up until recently, Emma had
    to protect me all the time.
[14:18] Vashelle
    And you saw how I ended up.
[14:21] Vashelle
    How am I supposed to face him again?
[14:24] Noir
    Vashelle...
[14:26] Vashelle
    But I can't keep him waiting any longer.
[14:42] Vashelle
    Tigerson...
[14:49] Tigerson
    I see that you are safe, my friend.
[14:58] Vashelle
    Tigerson...
[15:00] Vashelle
    Let's give up on conquering this dungeon.
[15:04] Tigerson
    I see. If that is what you wish.
[15:07] Vashelle
    My love might still be waiting for me.
[15:10] Vashelle
    But even if I'm wrong about that,
    I think this is for the best.
[15:16] Tigerson
    Indeed.
[15:17] Vashelle
    But I told you before, right?
[15:22] Vashelle
    Other races aren't allowed into my homeland.
[15:30] Vashelle
    Which means...
[15:32] Tigerson
    Yes, I know. We must part ways here.
[15:41] Vashelle
    Your lifespan is limited...
[15:44] Vashelle
    And yet... I wasted 350 years of your time...
[15:48] Tigerson
    It's all right.
[15:50] Tigerson
    You want to return home to your beloved.
[15:53] Tigerson
    No one can stop matters of the heart.
[15:57] Vashelle
    I'm so sorry... Truly.
[16:02] Tigerson
    Do not worry about that.
    I waited because I wanted to.
[16:06] Vashelle
    Tigerson...
[16:08] Tigerson
    The days I spent waiting for you had meaning.
[16:18] Noir
    I ended up using Dungeon Elevator
    to return to the first floor,
[16:22] Noir
    and then left the dungeon.
[16:24] Noir
    Tigerson and Vashelle were
    also heading toward the exit,
[16:29] Noir
    but I'm sure they had a lot to talk about.
[16:43] Vashelle
    Noir, I will repay this favor to you someday.
[16:47] Noir
    Don't even worry about it.
[16:49] Vashelle
    Tigerson, once things calm down,
    I promise to come see you again.
[16:54] Vashelle
    Stay well, my friend.
[16:55] Tigerson
    I am tough, if nothing else.
[16:59] Vashelle
    True.
[17:07] Vashelle
    Farewell, Tigerson!
[17:09] Tigerson
    Farewell.
[17:14] Vashelle
    It was so much fun.
[17:16] Vashelle
    The days I spent with you...
    were so much fun.
[17:30] Tigerson
    Noir, I thank you for what you have done.
[17:33] Noir
    What are you going to do now, Tigerson?
[17:38] Tigerson
    Who knows?
[17:41] Tigerson
    For now, I will go back to the fifth floor.
    I forgot something there.
[17:46] Tigerson
    Farewell.
[17:56] Noir
    I got curious, so I went back, too.
[18:10] Noir
    Tigerson?
[18:12] Noir
    He seemed pretty calm,
    but I guess he's actually angry...
[18:21] Noir
    He's not angry...
[18:23] Noir
    He's crying.
[18:28] Tigerson
    Is that you, Noir?
[18:30] Noir
    Yeah.
[18:32] Tigerson
    I prepared myself for the day
    I would have to part with him.
[18:36] Tigerson
    And yet, now that I must face that reality...
[18:42] Tigerson
    I am weak.
[18:44] Noir
    That's not true!
[18:47] Noir
    I imagined it, too. Having to
    say goodbye to my loved ones...
[18:52] Noir
    To be honest, it was so sad and painful
    that I didn't want to imagine it.
[18:56] Noir
    It felt like I was losing a part of myself.
[19:00] Tigerson
    Noir...
[19:03] Noir
    Let's do it.
[19:06] Noir
    Let's be friends!
[19:11] Tigerson
    Friends? You and me?
[19:16] Noir
    Yeah, I'm serious.
[19:18] Noir
    Actually, why don't you
    come live at my place?
[19:20] Noir
    It's much more comfortable sleeping on
    a warm carpet than this cold stone floor.
[19:25] Tigerson
    Aye. I shall take you up on that offer.
[19:28] Tigerson
    I can at least serve as your guard lion.
[19:32] Noir
    I guess that settles it.
[19:34] Tigerson
    Hop onto my back.
[19:36] Tigerson
    Let us go to your home.
[19:40] Noir
    No, Tigerson.
[19:44] Noir
    Let's go back to our home.
[19:51] Tigerson
    Ah, I see...
[19:54] Tigerson
    I finally understand, Vashelle.
[19:57] Tigerson
    There was another reason
    that I waited 350 years.
[20:03] Tigerson
    Today, I met another
[20:06] Tigerson
    who reached out to me.
    The second out of 990,000.
[20:23] Tigerson
    It's been so long since I felt the wind.
[20:26] Tigerson
    It feels wonderful. Make sure
    you don't get thrown off!
[20:29] Noir
    Okay! Let's fly!
[20:39] Noir's dad
    Wh-Wha...
[20:40] Noir's Dad
    What?!
[20:41] Noir
    I'm back, Father.
[20:44] Noir's dad
    I-I can quite plainly see that...
[20:47] Noir's Mom
    Oh, my.
[20:48] Alice
    Brother Dearest! Did you make
    that creature your familiar?
[20:52] Noir
    No, Tigerson is my friend.
[20:55] Noir's dad
    Tigerson? Its name isn't Lionson?
[20:58] Noir
    Correct.
[20:59] Noir's Dad
    Well, whatever.
[21:02] Noir's dad
    More importantly...
    It doesn't bite, does it?
[21:05] Tigerson
    I would never do such a thing.
[21:07] Noir's dad
    It can talk?! What a smart kitty.
[21:11] Noir
    When we get our shop up and running,
    he wants to be our guard lion.
[21:15] Noir's dad
    I-I see. I have a feeling
    he'll eat me if I say no, so...
[21:21] Noir's mom
    I'll have to make an extra
    special dinner tonight.
[21:24] Noir's mom
    Come, Tigey. Have a seat.
[21:27] Noir's Dad
    Tigey?!
[21:30] Tigerson
    Thank you for your hospitality.
[21:33] Alice
    What a magnificent mane.
[21:36] Noir's dad
    Say, so what's the deal with the tulip?
[21:39] Noir
    Oh, that's...
[21:46] Alice
    My, how cute.
[21:47] Tigerson
    Th-That's—
[21:52] Noir
    As you can see, he gets a bit weird over it.
[21:55] Noir's dad
    I see. So it's just like what
    your mother is to me.
[22:00] Noir
    Well, anyway, that's how Tigerson
    joined the Stardia family.
[22:07] Alice
    Take that!

    What a surprise.
[23:48] Noir
    I never would've figured Tigerson
    had a weak spot like that.
[23:51] Alice
    Everyone has a weak spot.
[23:55] Noir
    Wait, that's...
[23:58] Alice
    Brother Dearest, you must endure.
[24:00] Alice
    There's a big one...
[24:05] Alice
    My... It's so big, Brother Dearest...
