[00:07] Shin
    Well, at least it's
    not using its claws anymore.
[00:11] Shin
    But man, I sure wasn't expecting
    that many Skullfaces.
[00:16] Shin
    I'd better report to the guild.
[00:19] Shin
    I guess I won't tell them about
    the Elementail for now.
[00:23] Shin
    I've got a question for you.
[00:25] Shin
    Want to form a contract with me?
[00:29] Shin
    It's called taming.
[00:31] Shin
    A tamer and monster form a partnership.
[00:33] Shin
    It'll keep your level and species hidden,
    and we can stick together all the time.
[00:40] Shin
    Okay, okay.
[00:43] Shin
    Welp, here goes.
[00:50] Shin
    It is my desire to walk with you.
[01:03] Shin
    Here's to working together!
[01:07] Shin
    Now that we've formed a contract,
    there's something we should do.
[01:11] Shin
    You need a name.
[01:15] Shin
    C-Calm down. You're shaking my head.
[01:20] Shin
    Anyway, what do you think of the name Yuzuha?
[01:28] Shin
    Sounds like you like it.
[01:31] Sign
    You have a new message
[01:32] Shin
    Must be from Tiera.
[01:34] Sign
    Dear Shin,
    
    I was able to send a message to my master. I don't know if she has
    any message cards, but I'll let you know if I hear back from her.
    
    P.S. Is it possible to attach items to cards and send them??
[01:35] Shin
    "Dear Shin, I was able to send
    a message to my master."
[01:41] Shin
    I hadn't really considered that Tiera
    might actually reach her.
[01:46] Shin
    "Say hello to Schnee for me."
[01:50] Shin
    Okay, let's head to the guild.
[03:25] Shin
    Excuse me. I have something to report.
[03:30] Both
    Go ahead.
[03:32] Shin
    Um, who should I speak to?
[03:34] Celica
    I'll handle—
[03:35] Cilia
    I'll take your report.
[03:37] Celica
    Cilica.
[03:38] Cilica
    What?
[03:40] Celica
    Shin is standing in front of me.
    I'll take his report.
[03:44] Cilica
    What? Why can't I take it?
[03:46] Celica
    You just can't. I'll do it.
[03:48] Cilica
    That's not like you.
[03:50] Celica
    Excuse me?
[03:51] Cilica
    Fine, fine. I'll be quiet.
[03:55] Shin
    Uh, can I make my report now?
[03:57] Celica
    Yes. I'm sorry for the trouble.
[04:00] Celica
    Go right ahead.
[04:03] Shin
    I'm glad I got to report in.
[04:06] Shin
    While we're here, let's check out other jobs.
[04:13] Shin
    A skill successor?
[04:13] Sign
    Looking for Skill Successor
    
    If interested, please come to the orphanage next to the church in the west ward
[04:15] Shin
    Is that a term for a skill holder?
[04:17] Shin
    It's an unranked job.
    Must be something special to it.
[04:21] Shin
    It's from the church orphanage.
[04:24] Millie
    Please save the fox.
[04:27] Shin
    I'm curious about that power, too.
[04:30] Sign
    Looking for Skill Successor
    
    If interested, please come to the orphanage next to the church in the west ward
[04:30] Shin
    I'm on my way to see Millie anyway.
[04:39] Tria
    May I help you?
[04:42] Shin
    Oh, pardon me. I've never been
    to a place like this before.
[04:46] Shin
    I'm here because I have
    business with the orphanage.
[04:48] Tria
    Did you see my job request?
[04:51] Shin
    I thought I'd at least see what it's about.
[04:53] Shin
    Also, is there a beast girl named Millie here?
[04:57] Tria
    What of her?
[04:59] Shin
    She asked me to do something for her.
[05:03] Tria
    This way.
[05:07] Millie
    It's Shin!
[05:09] Shin
    Millie!
[05:11] Millie
    Shin!
[05:15] Tria
    It would seem you're not a bad person.
[05:18] Shin
    Is that how you saw me?
[05:21] Tria
    Forgive me. It's been a while since Millie
    took such a liking to someone.
[05:26] Shin
    I'm Shin, an adventurer.
[05:29] Tria
    My name is Tria. I'm a nun at this church.
[05:33] Shin
    Can I ask Millie about
    what I mentioned earlier?
[05:36] Tria
    Yes.
[05:37] Shin
    Say, Millie, is this the fox
    you were talking about yesterday?
[05:42] Millie
    Yeah, it is! Thanks!
[05:44] Shin
    You're welcome.
[05:46] Shin
    Yuzuha, say thank you.
[05:48] Shin
    I was able to rescue you because of Millie.
[05:57] Shin
    Now, could you tell me
     more about your request?
[06:02] Tria
    Yes. If you came after seeing it,
    then you must have a skill.
[06:08] Shin
    Well, yeah.
[06:10] Shin
    Skill holders were common in the game,
    but I guess they're a lot more rare now.
[06:15] Tria
    In truth, I'm looking for someone
    who inherited a certain skill
[06:19] Tria
    so they can teach it to me.
[06:22] Shin
    Given your profession,
    is it something like Heal or Cure?
[06:26] Tria
    No, actually. There are
    other circumstances at play.
[06:30] Tria
    I... need Purify.
[06:33] Shin
    Oh, Purify?
[06:35] Tria
    I know I'm asking for a lot.
[06:38] Shin
    Yeah, that's a really tough one.
[06:40] Tria
    I'm sure it is.
[06:42] Tria
    Wait, what did you just say?
[06:44] Shin
    Er, I said it's a tough ask.
[06:49] Tria
    Do you perchance know how
    to teach it to someone?
[06:52] Shin
    Yeah, I do.
[06:54] Tria
    S-So you can fulfill the job?
[06:58] Shin
    That depends on you.
[07:01] Tria
    Regarding the reward...
[07:03] Shin
    I don't need any monetary compensation.
[07:06] Shin
    Instead, I'd like to know
    about Millie's power.
[07:10] Shin
    I'd also like you to share whatever
    information the church acquires.
[07:16] Shin
    Of course she's at a loss.
[07:18] Shin
    I'm a stranger who showed up out of nowhere.
[07:21] Shin
    There's so much I don't know
    about this world.
[07:24] Shin
    I'd love to have the church
    as an intel resource,
[07:28] Shin
    but what should I do?
[07:30] Millie
    He's okay.
[07:34] Millie
    Shin is okay.
[07:38] Tria
    Millie.
[07:41] Tria
    Very well. I accept your terms.
[07:44] Tria
    But we're not experts.
[07:47] Tria
    I'm not sure we'll be able to
    gather information for you.
[07:51] Shin
    I just need to know if anyone comes
    to the church saying anything of interest.
[07:56] Shin
    The nature of Millie's power is the more
    important part to me anyway.
[08:01] Tria
    Millie possesses the title "Star Composer."
[08:05] Shin
    Star Composer?
[08:07] Tria
    She sometimes has unexpected visions.
[08:11] Tria
    And they've never been wrong before.
[08:15] Shin
    So she can predict the future.
[08:16] Tria
    Yes. Perhaps she asked you for a favor
    because she saw something.
[08:22] Shin
    If people found out about Millie's power,
[08:25] Shin
    there are those who would use it
     for nefarious purposes.
[08:29] Tria
    I've warned my associates
    to be wary of who they mention it to.
[08:33] Tria
    There's an adventurer from here
    who provides us with assistance.
[08:36] Shin
    You mean Wilhelm?
[08:38] Tria
    Yes.
[08:39] Tria
    Most people leave our children alone
    for fear of him.
[08:44] Shin
    In that case, I'd formally
    like to accept the job.
[08:47] Shin
    Tria, are you the one
    who will be learning Purify?
[08:50] Tria
    No, I was thinking of asking
    another of our sisters to learn it.
[08:54] Shin
    I figured it would be you...
[08:56] Tria
    Our former priest has a granddaughter.
[08:59] Tria
    Things would go more smoothly
    if she were to inherit the church.
[09:05] Shin
    Sounds like a sticky situation.
[09:09] Children
    It's a fox!
[09:11] Child 1
    I wanna hold it!
[09:12] Child 2
    Me first!
[09:13] Child 3
    No, me.
[09:13] Child 4
    Me too!
[09:19] Shin
    All alone...
[09:19] Sign
    All alone
[09:23] Sign
    All alone
[09:24] Millie
    Hang in there.
[09:26] Shin
    Why do I feel so defeated?
[09:28] Shin
    Well, I can't expect them to take
     a shine to a total stranger.
[09:33] Shin
    Millie, don't you want to see Yuzuha too?
[09:36] Millie
    I'd lose.
[09:37] Shin
    You'd... lose?
[09:39] Millie
    Yeah.
[09:40] Shin
    She's right. Millie's a bit small
    to force her way in there.
[09:52] Millie
    Come here, Yu.
[09:56] Millie
    Now I've got you all to myself.
[09:59] Shin
    Don't tell me you're a little schemer!
[10:01] Millie
    Easy win.
[10:03] Shin
    That's exactly what it sounds like!
[10:15] Qua
    Are you the one who's going to save us?
[10:18] Shin
    "Us"? Not the nun?
[10:22] Shin
    What do you mean?
[10:23] Qua
    The nun said they might
    get rid of this place.
[10:27] Shin
    They're getting rid of the church?
[10:29] Qua
    No, just the orphanage.
[10:32] Shin
    Will you tell me more about that?
[10:35] Qua
    This church doesn't have a priest right now,
[10:39] Qua
    so a new one has to take over.
[10:42] Shin
    Can't Tria do that?
[10:45] Qua
    It has to be someone
    who can use a special skill.
[10:49] Shin
    So that's why she needs Purify.
[10:52] Qua
    The new priest wants
    to get rid of the orphanage.
[10:56] Qua
    But the nun says the old priest's
    granddaughter, Lacia,
[10:59] Qua
    might have a superior claim to the church.
[11:02] Tria
    Our former priest has a granddaughter.
[11:06] Shin
    So that's why she wants
    another nun to learn the skill.
[11:11] Shin
    But why would a priest of this church
    want to do away with the orphanage?
[11:17] Qua
    We don't like him.
[11:21] Shin
    What's he like?
[11:24] Qua
    He's a pig who only cares about money.
[11:26] Shin
    Yeah, okay. That tells me
    everything I need to know.
[11:30] Millie
    It's okay.
[11:32] Millie
    Shin will save us.
[11:35] Qua
    If you say so, Millie, maybe we'll be okay.
[11:38] Shin
    Does Millie tend to be right?
[11:40] Qua
    Yeah. She always knows which shops have
    good deals and where the snacks are hidden.
[11:46] Shin
    Not exactly what I meant, but okay.
[11:50] Shin
    Sounds like Millie's careful
    about who she shares things with.
[11:54] Millie
    Is that weird?
[11:55] Shin
    No, it's not weird. If anything, it's good.
[11:59] Shin
    As long as you're not straining yourself.
[12:01] Millie
    I like head pats.
[12:08] Tria
    Thank you for waiting, Shin.
[12:21] Tria
    Say hello, Lacia.
[12:23] Lacia
    R-Right. I'm Sister Lacia.
[12:27] Lacia
    Thank you for helping ush— I mean, us.
[12:31] Shin
    Um...
[12:32] Shin
    Are you all right?
[12:33] Tria
    She can be a bit careless,
    but I promise she's hardworking.
[12:38] Shin
    I'm Shin. I'm going to teach you
    how to use the Purify skill.
[12:43] Shin
    Just remember that whether or not
    you can learn it depends on you.
[12:48] Lacia
    Okay!
[12:49] Shin
    First, I have a question.
[12:52] Shin
    Do you know where large numbers
    of high-level undead appear?
[12:56] Tria
    The Ghost Plains are rather famous.
[12:59] Shin
    The Ghost Plains?
[13:02] Wilhelm
    So you're the adventurer who took the job.
[13:06] Tria
    Oh, Wil, you're back?
[13:09] Shin
    Hey. I'm just stopping by.
[13:10] Millie
    Wil.
[13:12] Wilhelm
    What are you after? What did they tell you?
[13:15] Shin
    About Millie and the adventurer
    from the orphanage
[13:19] Shin
    who helps them keep her secret.
[13:23] Wilhelm
    You shouldn't be so trusting.
[13:26] Tria
    He doesn't seem like a bad person.
[13:28] Tria
    Besides, Millie said it would be okay.
[13:33] Wilhelm
    Did you see something?
[13:35] Millie
    Yeah.
[13:37] Wilhelm
    I see.
[13:38] Shin
    Is that all?
[13:41] Wilhelm
    If Millie says so, then I trust you.
[13:44] Shin
    Don't worry. I won't tell anyone
    or do anything underhanded.
[13:48] Wilhelm
    You'd better not.
[13:50] Wilhelm
    If you do, I'll use this to kill you.
[13:54] Millie
    No fighting. You're so fussy, Wil!
[13:58] Tria
    I'm sorry. He's always been short-tempered.
[14:02] Lacia
    Wil is impatient.
[14:04] Wilhelm
    Hey.
[14:06] Shin
    That's a harsh review.
[14:08] Wilhelm
    Whatever. Tell us about Purify.
[14:12] Shin
    Don't tell anyone else.
[14:13] Wilhelm
    Wouldn't dream of it.
[14:17] Shin
    To acquire Purify, you must
    defeat 200 undead over level 150
[14:22] Shin
    while holding an item called
    a holy prayer orb.
[14:26] Shin
    Landing the finishing blow counts as a kill,
[14:29] Shin
    so I'll weaken the monsters
    and Lacia can polish them off.
[14:33] Wilhelm
    Wait, are you serious?
[14:35] Shin
    Yes. Acquiring a holy prayer orb
    is actually pretty difficult,
[14:40] Shin
    but I already have one, so we're good.
[14:43] Tria
    You're saying such remarkable
     things so casually...
[14:47] Wilhelm
    Lacia, are you gonna be okay?
[14:51] Wilhelm
    Hey!
[14:51] Lacia
    Yes!
[14:54] Wilhelm
    Shin, I'm coming with you.
[14:56] Shin
    Sure. You're welcome to.
[14:58] Tria
    Lacia, good luck.
[15:01] Lacia
    I-I'll do my best.
[15:03] Tria
    I'm counting on you.
[15:05] Lacia
    Of course.
[15:09] Wilhelm
    There's too much I don't know about him.
[15:12] Wilhelm
    Millie likes him, so at the very least,
    he's probably not dangerous.
[15:17] Wilhelm
    But I don't buy that some no-name novice
[15:20] Wilhelm
    can take on loads of monsters
    over level 150, all while carrying Lacia.
[15:26] Wilhelm
    The only conceivable explanation is...
[15:30] Shin
    We leave tomorrow morning.
[15:32] Shin
    When we get home, let's eat and retire early.
[15:38] Shin
    Wilhelm?
[15:41] Wilhelm
    Come with me.
[15:44] Wilhelm
    I want to confirm something.
[15:46] Wilhelm
    Are you a chosen one?
[15:49] Shin
    A chosen one?
[15:51] Wilhelm
    You don't know what those are?
[15:52] Shin
    Not a clue.
[15:54] Wilhelm
    Chosen ones are people born with skills,
    titles, and knowledge they shouldn't have.
[16:01] Shin
    Does that include memories of previous lives?
[16:05] Wilhelm
    No, mostly information
    about items and monsters.
[16:09] Wilhelm
    I've never heard of anyone
    remembering a past life.
[16:14] Shin
    I see.
[16:15] Shin
    People starting off
    with multiple skills and titles?
[16:19] Shin
    Does that mean the reincarnation
    system still works?
[16:22] Wilhelm
    Sound familiar to you?
[16:23] Shin
    Not exactly...
[16:26] Shin
    I've reincarnated within the game before,
[16:29] Shin
    but I wasn't reborn
    in this world as an infant.
[16:32] Shin
    High humans are apparently extinct, too.
[16:35] Wilhelm
    No matter. I won't make you
    tell me everything.
[16:40] Shin
    I appreciate it.
[16:41] Wilhelm
    By the way, most people have
    never heard of chosen ones.
[16:45] Wilhelm
    Careful who you mention that to.
[16:49] Shin
    You're surprisingly caring, Wilhelm.
[16:52] Shin
    Are you sure people are afraid of you?
[16:54] Wilhelm
    I can't help what others think of me.
[16:58] Shin
    You're a hero who protects an orphanage.
[17:02] Wilhelm
    The kids are crying because some greedy
    pig won't stop messing with them.
[17:07] Wilhelm
    The sound grates on my ears.
[17:09] Shin
    So you're stopping this guy
     to shut them up, huh?
[17:12] Wilhelm
    That's right.
[17:15] Shin
    Crap! I always had a feeling,
    but he's seriously a nice guy!
[17:19] Wilhelm
    What?
[17:20] Shin
    Uh...
[17:21] Shin
    Nothing. It's nothing.
[17:24] Shin
    Sorry. One second.
[17:25] Wilhelm
    Huh?
[17:26] Sign
    You have a new message
[17:28] Tiera
    Dear Shin, I received a response
    from my master.
[17:31] Tiera
    She'll return as soon as
    she's finished with work.
[17:34] Tiera
    Please keep us informed
    if you leave Bayrelicht.
[17:38] Tiera
    P.S. I'm scared of how many questions
    my master asked about you.
[17:38] Sign
    P.S. I'm scared of how many questions my master asked about you.
    What did you do to her??
[17:42] Tiera
    What did you do to her?
[17:44] Shin
    How many questions
    is a scary number of questions?
[17:48] Sign
    Important
[17:48] Sign
    Important
[17:48] Shin
    Why is it flashing?
[17:48] Sign
    Important
[17:48] Sign
    Important
[17:49] Sign
    Important
[17:49] Sign
    Important
[17:49] Sign
    Important
[17:49] Sign
    Important
[17:52] Wilhelm
    That's a letter of introduction
    from the Moon Sanctum.
[17:55] Shin
    You know what this is?
[18:03] Shin
    I wouldn't have thought you had one, too.
[18:07] Wilhelm
    Right back at you.
[18:13] Shin
    So these are the Ghost Plains, huh?
[18:17] Shin
    Lacia.
[18:17] Lacia
    Y-Yes?!
[18:19] Shin
    Here's the holy prayer orb.
[18:21] Shin
    You've gotta make sure you're holding it.
[18:23] Lacia
    Oh, shank— I mean, thank you.
[18:38] Shin
    They're already here.
[18:41] Wilhelm
    Lacia, give it all you've got.
[18:45] Lacia
    Okay.
[18:49] Shin
    Single Ablution!
[18:54] Shin
    Attack the Biohounds.
[18:55] Lacia
    G-Got it!
[18:57] Lacia
    Heal!
[19:05] Shin
    Good. Healing magic works
    just like it does in the game.
[19:08] Wilhelm
    The next group is coming!
[19:14] Shin
    Break their limbs
    so they can't counterattack.
[19:16] Shin
    Don't tell me you can't pull that off.
[19:18] Wilhelm
    Who do you think you're talking to?
[19:20] Wilhelm
    Flashing Blossom!
[19:24] Shin
    Not bad.
[19:37] Shin
    What's this blue wall?
[19:38] Wilhelm
    It's a seal created by the guild.
[19:42] Wilhelm
    The undead beyond this point
    are on another level.
[19:45] Wilhelm
    Prepare yourselves.
[19:46] Lacia
    O-Okay.
[19:56] Shin
    Rapt Raptors and Jumpkins.
[19:59] Wilhelm
    Looks like five in all.
[20:02] Shin
    Wilhelm, you take the front.
[20:04] Shin
    I'll stop the ones to our left.
[20:06] Wilhelm
    Makes sense.
[20:09] Shin
    There are no other enemies nearby.
[20:10] Shin
    Yuzuha, you handle things here.
[20:17] Lacia
    Heal!
[20:23] Shin
    Good work. You've gained a lot of levels.
[20:26] Lacia
    I know! I've leveled up so much it's scary!
[20:31] Shin
    It's because these monsters
    outlevel you so much.
[20:33] Shin
    You'll advance rapidly.
[20:35] Shin
    By the time you learn Purify,
    you should be about level 150.
[20:38] Wilhelm
    I'm back.
[20:40] Lacia
    Welcome back, Wil.
[20:42] Wilhelm
    Here.
[20:43] Sfx
    SPLATTER
[20:45] Lacia
    No!
[21:00] Rionne
    I heard unusually high-level Skullface Jacks
    had appeared in the Ghost Plains,
[21:05] Rionne
    so I came to defeat them,
[21:07] Rionne
    but these are exceptionally strong.
[21:10] Rionne
    Without this sword that came flying
    into my room that day,
[21:13] Rionne
    this battle would have been tough.
[21:15] Gadras
    I'm worried about the other group.
[21:17] Rionne
    So am I.
[21:18] Schnee
    Allow me to handle it.
[21:21] Rionne
    Are you sure?
[21:22] Schnee
    Yes.
[21:24] Knight 2
    Go around! Aim for the core!
[21:26] Knight 3
    Its attacks are too powerful!
[21:28] Knight 2
    Anyone with strength left, lend us your aid!
[21:30] Knight 3
    Damn! What's wrong with this thing?
[21:32] Berg
    We won't last like this...
[21:33] Berg
    If we lose any more men,
    we won't be able to stop it.
[22:02] Berg
    Schnee!
