[00:04] Shin
So... why are you dressed like that?
[00:08] Schnee
Since elves stand out, disguising
ourselves as beasts allow us to blend in.
[00:13] Tiera
These are amazing!
[00:15] Tiera
They act like the real thing once equipped.
[00:17] Schnee
You called them cosplay items, did you not?
[00:19] Schnee
They have the ability to conceal
the traits of one's species.
[00:23] Shin
Er, yeah, that's right.
[00:25] Shin/Id
I never dreamed stuff I mostly made
for a laugh would come in so handy.
[00:30] Schnee
By the way, Shin, what do you think?
[00:33] Shin
Of what?
[00:35] Schnee
Do they look good on me?
[00:37] Shin
Oh, yeah. You look great.
[00:42] Schnee
W-We're going to see Schweid, aren't we?
[00:45] Schnee
Let us hurry.
[00:49] Tiera
I've never seen her like this before.
[00:51] Shin
Me either.
[00:54] Shin/Id
That aside, I didn't think
I'd get to see him here.
[00:58] Shin/Id
Kilmont is an allied nation of Farnid.
[01:02] Shin/Id
And representing them at the funeral...
[01:06] Shin/Id
was my former support character
Schweid the high dragnir.
[02:44] Schnee
Representatives of the various
nations are staying here.
[02:52] Shin
Is Schweid a monarch like Girart?
[02:56] Schnee
No. Though he was the first emperor
of the Dragon Empire, Kilmont,
[03:01] Schnee
he's cut ties with the imperial family.
[03:03] Schnee
Ever since Kilmont stabilized,
he has been living at his leisure.
[03:08] Shin
I'm surprised the people accepted that.
[03:10] Schnee
The second and current emperor
was originally meant to be the first,
[03:14] Schnee
but he was injured during
the nation's founding.
[03:16] Shin
So Schweid was just a stand-in, huh?
[03:19] Butler
I shall fetch Lord Schweid. Please wait here.
[03:24] Wolfgang
I have a meeting to attend,
so I will be on my way.
[03:28] Wolfgang
Please let Cuore know if you need anything.
[03:40] Schweid
You are dismissed.
[03:49] Shin
Uh, long time no see?
[03:54] Schweid
I am delighted that you have returned.
[03:58] Schweid
I shall serve you once more
and be the spear that pierces your foes.
[04:03] Shin/Id
Ah, right. He's that kind of guy.
[04:07] Shin
Listen, I'll tell you what I told Schnee.
We finally get to see each other again.
[04:11] Shin
Let's take it easy, okay?
[04:14] Schweid
However...
[04:16] Schnee
Schweid, if Shin says it's okay,
then it's okay.
[04:20] Schweid
Not "Master," but "Shin"?
[04:23] Schweid
That's different.
[04:26] Schnee
Yes.
[04:27] Schweid
Very well. If that is how things are,
I shall conduct myself at ease.
[04:32] Schweid
By the way, Schnee,
why are you dressed like that?
[04:36] Schnee
To suit Shin's tastes.
[04:38] Shin
Could you not give him the wrong idea?
[04:44] Schweid
I see. So Girart passed on a satisfied man.
[04:48] Schweid
That sounds just like him.
[04:50] Shin
A warrior until the very end.
[04:55] Schweid
So, Shin, what will you do now?
[05:00] Shin
I've researched all I can
at the libraries here,
[05:02] Shin
so I'll hit the sacred place next.
[05:04] Schweid
I will be returning to Kilmont.
[05:07] Schweid
Allow me to join you after that.
[05:09] Shin
It's been a while since we partied up.
[05:12] Schweid
Indeed. We can use telepathy
to keep in contact.
[05:15] Shin
Welp, we'd better get going.
[05:18] Shin
Oh, that's right.
[05:24] Schweid
It can't be! Is that...
[05:26] Shin
Yup. It's your personal weapon, Nagizuki.
[05:30] Schweid
It's been ages since I held it last,
[05:32] Schweid
but nothing could feel
more natural in my hands.
[05:34] Shin
I took care of the maintenance for you.
See for yourself.
[05:39] Schweid
Impressive work.
[05:41] Schweid
Though it seems more powerful
than the Nagizuki I know.
[05:45] Shin
You can tell?
[05:46] Shin
My mana control has improved
since I repaired Girart's equipment.
[05:51] Shin
Thanks to that,
she's now five times stronger!
[05:53] Schweid
Your abilities have grown
in such a short time?
[05:57] Schweid
That's incredible, even for you.
[06:09] Shin
I'd like to get my adventurer
rank up to around C.
[06:13] Shin
This will do.
[06:15] Cuore
Goblin slaying?
[06:17] Shin
We can do this as a day trip.
[06:19] Cuore
Um, would it be all right if I joined you?
[06:22] Shin
I don't mind, but are you sure?
[06:25] Cuore
Yes. I'll take care of my
remaining work once I return.
[06:28] Shin
Work?
[06:29] Cuore
I'm investigating the Raluah Forest
where you held your duel the other day.
[06:33] Cuore
To make sure it's regrowing properly.
[06:37] Shin
Mind if I tag along?
[06:40] Cuore
What? You could, but...
[06:42] Shin
Since I was part of that duel,
I want to check it out.
[06:47] Cuore
In that case, I'd love to have you.
[06:53] Shin
We'll each take one. Got it?
[06:56] All
Roger!
[07:06] Shin
And that's one job done.
[07:10] Shin
Incredible. We made a mess of this place,
but it's already back to normal.
[07:15] Cuore
We're going to examine the regenerated trees
and look for anything unnatural in the area.
[07:20] Cuore
If you spot any unusual herbs growing,
please pick them.
[07:25] Tiera
Let's see...
[07:32] Shin
We finished the job.
Mind confirming it for us?
[07:35] Reception
Very well. Also, I have a message for you.
[07:39] Shin
What is it?
[07:41] Reception
It's from Barlux, guild master
of our Bayrelicht branch.
[07:47] Shin
Barlux? Isn't that...
[07:51] Shin
I've been summoned
by the palace in Bayrelicht.
[07:54] Shin
It says to head there as soon as possible.
[07:56] Tiera
What does the palace want with you?
[07:59] Shin
Don't ask me.
[08:01] Schnee
You don't have any ideas?
[08:03] Shin
None.
[08:06] Shin
Well, okay, maybe one.
[08:10] Shin
I might have to take care of this
before working on my rank.
[08:14] Schnee
I'll join you.
[08:15] Tiera
So will I.
[08:17] Cuore
I wish I could go with you,
but I can't leave the country.
[08:22] Shin
Don't make that face.
[08:24] Shin
There's something I want to give Wolfgang.
[08:26] Shin
Could you let me know when he's free?
[08:29] Cuore
You have something for my father?
[08:36] Cuore
Father, do you have a moment?
[08:39] Cuore
Shin wishes to speak with you.
[08:42] Wolfgang
Show him in.
[08:45] Shin
Sorry to interrupt.
[08:47] Wolfgang
Don't be. This is also part
of my kingly duties.
[08:50] Wolfgang
Now, more importantly, what brings you here?
[08:52] Shin
Sorry for the short notice, but I need
to leave for Bayrelicht right away.
[08:57] Shin
I thought I'd give you these before I go.
[09:02] Wolfgang
Those are...
[09:06] Shin
Girart's Death Moon.
[09:08] Shin
I've already changed the owner.
[09:11] Shin
You can transfer them to whoever you want.
[09:14] Wolfgang
I'd heard they were destroyed in your duel.
[09:17] Shin
I'm the one who made Death Moon.
[09:19] Shin
Repairing them was nothing.
[09:21] Shin
Besides,
[09:23] Shin
Girart asked me to give them to you
once the duel was over.
[09:28] Wolfgang
The first king wanted me to...
[09:31] Shin
Mind making sure they're good to go?
[09:35] Wolfgang
Very well.
[09:37] Wolfgang
These are unbelievable!
[09:42] Shin
It's up to you who inherits them next.
[09:50] Wolfgang
I accept that responsibility.
[10:00] Shin
Okay, let's head back.
[10:02] Schnee
You intend to teleport?
[10:03] Schnee
Perhaps to where the Moon Sanctum was?
[10:06] Shin
Yeah. A wagon would take too long,
and that area is safe.
[10:10] Tiera
Another crystal? How extravagant.
[10:14] Shin
All right. Here we go.
[10:22] Shin
Someone's watching.
[10:24] Shin
I'm glad I used a stealth skill.
[10:27] Schnee
Perhaps they think the Moon Sanctum
will reappear in this spot.
[10:32] Schnee
People must have long forgotten
that it could be moved.
[10:37] Schnee
Y-You won't disappear, will you, Shin?
[10:39] Shin
What?
[10:40] Schnee
I just... grew a bit nervous that
that day may come again.
[10:47] Shin
Schnee.
[10:49] Schnee
It's unfounded, isn't it?
[10:52] Tiera
You're going to be left behind.
[10:53] Shin
Oh, sorry.
[10:55] Shin
Hey, wait. I'm the one Barlux summoned.
[10:57] Tiera
So why are you just standing there?
[11:00] Shin
I couldn't imagine what it's like to wait
for someone who might never return.
[11:06] Shin
I'm not sure I could do it.
[11:09] Tiera
You couldn't.
[11:10] Shin
That was quick!
[11:11] Tiera
Elves and humans have totally
different perceptions of time.
[11:15] Tiera
If we wanted to wait, why wouldn't we?
[11:18] Shin
Is that how it works?
[11:19] Tiera
Yes, it is.
[11:20] Tiera
For long-lived species like us, losing our
reason to live is the gateway to hell.
[11:25] Shin
So thinking about it too hard
gets you into trouble...
[11:29] Tiera
That's right. If you're going to think,
put your mind to something more useful.
[11:34] Tiera
Besides, it throws me off
when you suddenly get serious.
[11:38] Shin
Could you not make it sound like I'm cavalier
about everything all the time?
[11:42] Schnee
You do get serious
about the strangest things, Shin.
[11:46] Shin
Shaddup.
[11:48] Celica
Shin, it's good to see you again!
[11:51] Shin
I received a summons from the guild master.
[11:54] Celica
We'll let him know you're here.
One moment, please.
[11:57] Celica
Cilica, could you go get him?
[11:59] Cilica
Sure thing!
[12:02] Shin
Do you know what this is about?
[12:04] Celica
No. We're not told that much.
[12:08] Celica
But I did expect you'd be summoned soon.
[12:12] Shin
What? Why?
[12:13] Celica
Because you're hardly an ordinary adventurer.
[12:17] Shin
Of course...
[12:19] Celica
You're always traveling with beautiful women.
[12:25] Shin
I-I have male acquaintances, too!
[12:28] Celica
Oh? I've never seen you speaking to one before.
[12:31] Shin
That can't be true. There's, uh...
[12:34] Shin
Oh, right! Wilhelm!
[12:36] Shin
We've worked together before.
[12:38] Celica
What?
[12:41] Celica
Is that true, Shin?
[12:44] Shin
It wasn't an official job, but yeah.
[12:48] Shin
Why did everyone go quiet?
[12:50] Celica
He rarely forms parties.
[12:53] Celica
They say his combat strength is S-rank,
but there are many rumors about him.
[13:00] Celica
Folks find him difficult to approach.
[13:03] Shin
Yeah, he's easily misunderstood.
[13:06] Celica
Wilhelm himself is an
exceptional man, however.
[13:10] Shin
Can say that again.
[13:12] Cilica
Shin!
[13:14] Cilica
We're ready for you. This way, please.
[13:21] Barlux
You're here sooner than expected.
[13:23] Shin
I was already headed this way.
[13:26] Barlux
Sorry to rush you. This is Arahd the mage.
[13:30] Arahd
I am Arahd Royl. A pleasure.
[13:34] Barlux
He appraises gems for the guild.
[13:37] Barlux
He assessed the Skullface gem
you brought in as well.
[13:42] Shin
My name is Shin. It's nice to meet you.
[13:45] Barlux
As I said in my message,
the palace has summoned you.
[13:50] Shin
May I ask why?
[13:52] Arahd
Before that, I have a question.
[13:55] Arahd
Are you aware that a sword
flew into the palace?
[14:00] Shin
I heard something flew into it...
[14:04] Arahd
About that...
[14:06] Arahd
It was a massive white sword.
[14:09] Arahd
On top of that, it crashed into the bedroom
[14:13] Arahd
of the second princess of Bayrelicht.
[14:15] Arahd
It caused quite the stir.
[14:18] Shin
O-Oh?
[14:20] Arahd
Fortunately, no one was hurt.
[14:23] Arahd
The issue is the sword itself.
[14:25] Arahd
Its elemental enchantment
and base materials are quite impressive.
[14:31] Arahd
Apparently, it's comparable
to the kingdom's royal sword.
[14:35] Shin
That's amazing.
[14:38] Arahd
The gem from the Skullface you defeated
also possessed powerful mana.
[14:45] Arahd
I heard it was a rather high level.
[14:47] Shin
G-Guess so.
[14:51] Shin/Id
They definitely know who's responsible.
[14:54] Shin
How did you manage to figure out
that I was involved?
[14:58] Arahd
Someone was trying to find out what happened.
[15:01] Arahd
They got wind of the gem, too.
[15:04] Arahd
As its appraiser, I was asked
to examine the sword as well.
[15:08] Arahd
There were traces of mana left on it
distinct from the sword's own.
[15:14] Arahd
It matched the mana from the gem.
[15:19] Shin/Id
So it's like fantasy DNA identification.
[15:23] Arahd
From there, they followed the trail.
[15:25] Arahd
When they discovered you were the one
who brought the gem, you were summoned.
[15:31] Barlux
Given the circumstances,
the guild couldn't keep your secret.
[15:35] Shin
Considering what they knew,
you couldn't fool them anyway.
[15:39] Shin
That's not on you.
[15:40] Barlux
Fortunately, because you had a letter
of introduction from the Moon Sanctum,
[15:44] Barlux
the situation isn't any worse.
[15:46] Barlux
Now, getting down to business...
[15:49] Barlux
The second princess, Her Highness Rionne
herself, is the one who summoned you.
[15:54] Shin
What?
[15:55] Barlux
This incident piqued her interest in you.
[15:59] Shin
Is she going to hold me responsible
for nearly injuring royalty?
[16:04] Barlux
No, you won't be punished for that.
[16:07] Barlux
The princess has slain Skullfaces before.
[16:11] Barlux
Based on her experience,
[16:12] Butler
she's convinced everyone that
you'd have no choice
[16:15] Butler
but to use full force against it.
[16:17] Shin
I appreciate that, but then
what exactly does she want from me?
[16:22] Barlux
I don't know the answer to that either.
[16:25] Arahd
Politicians are nasty creatures, after all.
[16:32] Shin
Anyway, that's what they told me.
[16:36] Schnee
I see.
[16:37] Tiera
You sent a sword flying into the palace?
Why would you do that?
[16:40] Shin
It's not like I did it on purpose!
[16:43] Yuzuha
So Shin's just amazing?
[16:44] Tiera
In some ways, yes.
[16:47] Schnee
Perhaps they wish to press you
into their service
[16:51] Schnee
or have you marry an important noble.
[16:54] Shin
M-Marry?!
[16:55] Schnee
Yes. They say a nation's power is proportional
to its high-ranking chosen ones.
[17:01] Schnee
I believe they'll aggressively
try to recruit you.
[17:04] Shin
I suddenly don't feel like going anymore.
[17:06] Schnee
I doubt there's any problem with you
refusing to enter their service.
[17:09] Shin
Really?
[17:10] Schnee
As your party members,
we'd suffer a great loss if you left.
[17:14] Scheen
That should be reason enough
to turn them down.
[17:17] Shin
But on the other hand,
if they want to marry me off...
[17:19] Shin
Refusing stuff like that without
a good reason only causes more trouble.
[17:24] Schnee
On that front, you could tell them
I am your fiancée.
[17:28] Shin
Hey, yeah, I could say I'm already spoken for.
[17:31] Schnee
Depending on the circumstances,
you could even say you're betrothed to Tiera.
[17:35] Tiera
T-To me?
[17:36] Schnee
Oh, would you not like that?
[17:39] Tiera
As long as we're just pretending...
[17:43] Yuzuha
Then Yuzuha will be Shin's fiancée, too!
[17:45] Shin
Wait, Yuzuha. We can't do that!
[17:47] Shin
It'd destroy me socially!
[17:49] Shin
We're just pretending.
[17:50] Shin
It's only make-believe. It's not for real.
[17:53] Yuzuha
You're not going to mate with Schnee?
[17:55] Shin
H-Hey! Don't say stuff like that in that form!
[17:58] Schnee
Mate...
[17:59] Tiera
Why don't we all calm down?
[18:04] Shin
I've been summoned by the second princess.
[18:08] Shin
My name is Shin.
[18:09] Guard
I've been expecting you.
[18:11] Guard
I'll retrieve your escort. One moment, please.
[18:14] Shin
Understood.
[18:16] Shin
I wonder what's going to show up...
[18:22] Gadras
Excuse me. You're Shin
the adventurer, aren't you?
[18:26] Shin
Yes, that's me.
[18:27] Gadras
I am Gadras. Princess Rionne
asked me to fetch you.
[18:32] Gadras
I'll show you the way. Come with me.
[18:34] Shin
Understood.
[18:39] ---
Dark Knight
[18:39] ---
Gadras Jarre
[18:40] Shin/Id
Level 188...
[18:43] Shin/Id
They sent one of the kingdom's
most powerful men to meet me.
[18:46] Gadras
We're here. Princess Rionne is just inside.
[18:52] Gadras
It's Gadras. I've brought Shin.
[18:55] Rionne
Enter.
[19:07] Rionne
Thank you for coming.
[19:08] Rionne
I am Rionne Sytrail Bayrelicht,
second princess of this kingdom.
[19:13] Rionne
It's a pleasure to meet you.
[19:15] Shin
My name is Shin.
Thank you for inviting me today.
[19:20] Rionne
I care little for etiquette.
[19:23] Rionne
Feel free to call me Rionne.
[19:24] Shin
Very well, Rionne.
[19:27] Gadras
Your Highness, that's hardly proper
for someone you've just met.
[19:30] Gadras
You've confused him.
[19:31] Rionne
We may fight side by side eventually.
[19:34] Rionne
It beats building walls
just because I'm royalty.
[19:38] Gadras
I beg your pardon, Shin,
but this is simply how she is.
[19:41] Gadras
No need for formality.
[19:42] Shin
Uh, may I ask why I was summoned?
[19:46] Rionne
I'm sure Barlux gave you an overview,
but it's about the Skullface.
[19:59] Rionne
You recognize this, don't you?
[20:01] Shin
That's the sword the Skullface was wielding.
[20:05] Rionne
I imagine it was quite strong.
[20:10] Shin
Well, yes. My own weapon
was destroyed in the battle.
[20:15] Rionne
I see.
[20:17] Shin/Id
At least that much is true.
[20:20] Rionne
I knew you were different.
[20:21] Shin
Different, you say?
[20:24] Rionne
Most adventurers like you who suddenly
distinguish themselves are chosen ones.
[20:34] Rionne
When we determine one to be rather powerful,
[20:37] Rionne
we typically summon you here.
[20:40] Rionne
Some have used the opportunity
to plot assassinations.
[20:44] Shin
How frightening.
[20:46] Rionne
Some suspected you would as well,
but you seem safe.
[20:50] Shin
I don't recall saying anything
that would clear such suspicions.
[20:53] Rionne
Of course you didn't.
I'm going off my instincts.
[20:55] Shin
What?
[20:57] Rionne
You've shown your colors.
[20:58] Shin
I mean, I doubt anyone would
accept that without more concrete proof.
[21:04] Rionne
That's not a problem.
I possess the skill "Intuition."
[21:08] Rionne
My hunches have never been wrong.
[21:11] Shin/Id
Is that how Intuition works?
[21:14] Shin/Id
Is the Intuition skill
enhancing her woman's intuition?
[21:18] Gadras
Well, the most decisive factor was that
[21:20] Gadras
you possess a letter of introduction
from the Moon Sanctum.
[21:24] Rionne
Schnee wouldn't grant one
to anyone who'd plot an assassination.
[21:29] Rionne
This was more like a final check.
[21:32] Shin
I see. So, now we get down to business?
[21:35] Rionne
Yes. Allow me to be direct.
[21:40] Shin/Id
Is it marriage after all?!
[21:43] Rionne
Shin, I want you to fight me!
[21:50] Shin
What?
