[00:16] Rick
    I-I'm gonna die.
[00:23] Broughston
    Yes, he's shaped up very well
     over these last two years.
[00:27] Alicerette
    This "E-rank test" thing shouldn't
    be a problem now, right?
[00:32] Mizett
    I'm actually more worried that
    he might destroy the arena.
[00:44] Rick
    I'm still far from measuring
     up to all of you.

[02:21] narrator
    Chase your dreams while you're young.
[02:24] narrator
    That's what everyone thinks.
[02:27] narrator
    Especially adventurers, whose bodies
    are their tools of the trade.
[02:31] narrator
    And yet, there must be adults out there
    who just can't give up on their dreams.
[02:39] receptionist A
    Entrants for the E-rank promotion test,
    please register here.
[02:43] receptionist B
    Please present your Guild ID.
[02:45] adventurer
    Here.
[02:48] Alisa
    This is your admission ticket for the test.
[02:50] Alisa
    Best of luck.
[02:51] No. 4241
    Thank you!
[02:54] Rick
    If you would, please.
[02:55] Alisa
    Of course! This is... Oh.
[02:59] Alisa
    Senpai? You're Rick-senpai, aren't you?
[03:03] Alisa
    It's me, Alisa!
[03:05] Rick
    Oh. It's been two years, hasn't it?
[03:08] Rick
    So, you've been transferred to Central?
[03:10] Alisa
    That's right. I was so surprised back then.
[03:14] Alisa
    You quit so suddenly.
[03:16] (Flashback) Rick
    I'm quitting.
[03:17] (Flashback) manager; Alisa
    What?
[03:19] Alisa
    And I was even more surprised when
     I heard that you'd become an adventurer!
[03:24] Rick
    Yeah. Starting off as an adventurer
    when you're thirty is pretty unthinkable.
[03:30] Rick
    Normally, people start as F-rank
    apprentices in their teens.
[03:34] Rick
    Then they become novice E-rank
    adventurers within two years of that.
[03:38] Alisa
    Well, yeah...
[03:40] Alisa
    I was wondering, Senpai.
[03:42] Alisa
    What have you been doing
    these last two years?
[03:45] Rick
    You could say that I was
     holed up in the mountains.
[03:48] Rick
    I was training with
    some senior adventurers.
[03:50] Domuld
    Hey, missy! You free right now?
[03:54] Alisa
    Um, no, I'm working right now.
[03:57] Domuld
    Who cares about work?
[04:00] Domuld
    I'll make sure you have a good time.
[04:03] Alisa
    Sir, this isn't really appropriate.
[04:04] Domuld
    Quit making excuses!
[04:05] Alisa
    Ow!
[04:06] Domuld
    Women should just shut up and listen!
[04:10] Rick
    Now, now.
[04:11] Domuld
    Huh? And who are you?
[04:13] Rick
    Now, calm down for a moment.
[04:16] Alisa
    I'm sorry, Senpai.
[04:18] Rick
    It's all right. I'm used to this
    from when I worked as a Guild clerk.
[04:23] adventurer; male
    What's that?
[04:25] adventurer; female
    What's all the commotion?
[04:26] Alisa
    Senpai?
[04:28] Rick
    He's probably had too much to drink.
[04:30] Rick
    Life lesson! Drink responsibly!
[04:34] Rick
    Yes, yes.
[04:37] Alisa
    Oh, right! Your exam ticket.
[04:40] Alisa
    Here you are. Good luck on the E-rank test.
[04:43] Rick
    Thank you.
[04:44] Rick
    So, I'm number 4242, huh?
[04:49] Rick
    An unlucky number that sounds like death!
    Now I'm worried.
[04:55] Reanette
    Did you finish registering?
[04:57] Rick
    Yes. Sorry to keep you waiting, Reanette.
[05:00] Reanette
    Rick-sama.
[05:02] Rick
    Um... The kids in there
    are all shining so brightly.
[05:07] Rick
    They're full of hopes and dreams,
    believe they can be whatever they want.
[05:11] Reanette
    Is that why you were looking at my chest?
[05:15] Rick
    You're imagining things.
[05:17] examinee; male
    Whoa! What is this?
[05:19] examinee; female
    This is steel armor, isn't it?
[05:22] guard A
    Hey, that guy!
[05:24] guard A
    It's Domuld!
[05:25] guard A
    A former A-rank adventurer
    who's wanted for assault!
[05:28] guard B
    You mean Domuld, the Fiendish Knight?
[05:31] Alisa
    It can't be.
[05:35] Alisa
    Senpai did that?
[05:38] medical inspector A
    Let's see. One hundred and
    seventy-four centimeters.
[05:42] medical inspector B
    Number 4242, 174 centimeters.
[05:46] medical inspector B
    Huh? Thirty-two years old?
[05:52] medical inspector C
    Now, if you could each in turn place
    your hands on this crystal, please.
[05:56] medical inspector C
    The light will allow us to measure the
    amount of magical energy you have.
[06:01] medical inspector C
    D plus.
[06:03] medical inspector C
    D minus.
[06:06] medical inspector C
    C plus.
[06:17] medical inspector C
    F minus.
[06:18] No. 4245
    That old guy's an F minus?
[06:21] No. 4243
    I've never seen anyone
    score that low before.
[06:24] No. 4244
    I hope I don't end up like that.
[06:26] medical inspector C
    Then, if the next—
[06:28] medical inspector C
    What?
[06:30] examiner A
    Please direct all of your strength
    into a single blow here.
[06:33] examiner A
    We will measure the force of that blow.
[06:35] examiner A
    It has the capacity to
    absorb powerful attacks,
[06:38] examiner A
    so don't hold back.
[06:40] Rick; internal
    A slime bag, huh?
[06:44] (Flashback) Broughston
    No matter what weapon
    or magic you might use,
[06:46] (Flashback) Broughston
    the foundation of everything
    will be your own body.
[06:49] (Flashback) Broughston
    If you can destroy this golden
    slime bag with your bare hands,
[06:53] (Flashback) Broughston
    then you'll know that you've
    built a body you can trust.
[06:57] (Flashback) Rick
    Wait, a golden one?
[06:59] (Flashback) Rick
    I can't possibly destroy something that's as
    strong as dragon's teeth with my bare hands.
[07:04] (Flashback) Broughston
    This is elementary for an adventurer.
[07:06] (Flashback) Broughston
    In case you're wondering, I...
[07:09] (Flashback) Broughston
    can destroy two hundred at once.
[07:12] (Flashback) Broughston
    Now, you'll start with fifty
    thousand punches a day!
[07:18] Rick; internal
    That was hell.
[07:21] examiner A
    Now, Number 4236, step forward.
[07:24] No. 4236
    All right!
[07:28] examiner; older man
    Strengthening magic, is it?
[07:31] examiner; older man
    Not bad.
[07:32] examiner A
    Next, Number 4237.
[07:37] Freed
    The time to show my strength...
[07:41] Freed
    has finally come.
[07:43] No. 4239
    So that's the second son of a
    duke everyone's talking about.
[07:46] No. 4236
    He's only 11 years old, but they say
    he has magic equivalent to C-rank.
[07:50] No. 4244
    He's truly a child prodigy.
[07:52] Freed
    Well, here I go!
[07:56] Freed
    Flames of hell, your heat shall return
    all things in existence to ash!
[08:04] Freed
    Level-Three Nature Composed
    Magic, Flame Eliminate!
[08:09] Rick
    It's tiny!
[08:14] examinees
    Incredible!
[08:15] Freed
    Well, I suppose that will do.
[08:18] examiner; older man
    He really is a genius, isn't he?
[08:21] Rick; internal
    That's Level-Three Nature Composed blaze magic?
[08:27] (Flashback) Alicerette
    Okay, Rick-kun,
[08:29] (Flashback) Alicerette
    here I go!
[08:31] (Flashback) Alicerette
    There!
[08:34] (Flashback) Rick
    Hot! Hot! Hot!
[08:40] (Flashback) Rick
    I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!
[08:43] Rick; internal
    They're really different
    for both being blaze magic.
[08:47] Rick; internal
    Did he compress it so he
    could use it indoors?
[08:49] Rick; internal
    That's a child prodigy for you!
[08:55] Rick; internal
    I see. Even a green one has an
    impressive ability to absorb attacks.
[09:00] examiner A
    Next, Number 4242.
[09:02] Rick
    Yes!
[09:05] examiner; older man
    Hold on!
[09:07] examiner; older man
    This says that you started as an adventurer
    when you were 30. Is that true?
[09:12] Rick
    Yes.
[09:14] examiner; older man
    If you don't train your magic when you're
    young, you can't expect any growth later.
[09:19] examiner; older man
    And the results of your magic
    capacity measurement are atrocious.
[09:24] examiner; older man
    I'm saying this for your own good.
    You should give up now.
[09:31] Rick; internal
    He's right.
[09:34] Rick; internal
    But...
[09:41] (Flashback) Broughston
    You still have thirty
    thousand punches remaining.
[09:43] (Flashback) Broughston
    Do you want to quit?
[09:46] (Flashback) Rick
    No, I'll do it.
[09:49] (Flashback) Rick
    I can't stop here!
[09:53] Rick; internal
    It's true that I'm getting
    a very late start.
[09:57] Rick; internal
    But what's wrong with that?
[10:00] Rick; internal
    Whatever age a person starts
    as an adventurer...
[10:02] Rick; internal
    Whatever age a person starts
    doing something new...
[10:05] Rick; internal
    it doesn't matter, does it?
[10:14] Rick
    Huh? Was it defective?
[10:17] Freed; internal
    Wh-Who is this guy?
[10:19] Freed; internal
    He stole my thunder!
[10:25] Freed; internal
    No matter. My real specialty
    is defense magic.
[10:29] Freed; internal
    When they measure our defensive ability,
    I'll show him a thing or two.
[10:38] Freed
    E-Even I couldn't defend against that
    Level-Four Nature Composed magic, and he...
[10:47] magic examiner
    That was amazing, Number 4242.
[10:50] Rick
    Thank you! I made sure to use defensive magic!
[10:54] magic examiner
    That was Air Cushion, wasn't it?
    That's a Level-One Nature Composed magic.
[10:57] Rick
    Yes, sir.
[10:59] magic examiner
    Th-Then, I'll go up a level and use
    Level-Five Nature Composed magic next.
[11:04] magic examiner
    I recommend using a higher order
    of defense magic this time.
[11:07] Rick
    Actually, I'm ashamed to admit this,
[11:10] Rick
    but I can only use one each of the Level-One
    Nature Composed magics in attack and defense.
[11:15] magic examiner
    What? Even though you can control
    your magic with such precision?
[11:20] Rick
    Yes.
[11:21] Rick
    But please don't worry!
     I think I'll be all right.
[11:25] magic examiner
    I see you underestimate me.
[11:28] magic examiner
    Then, I will not hold back.
[11:30] magic examiner
    O saints who gaze up at the ramparts.
[11:33] magic examiner
    O soldiers who cling to the walls.
[11:36] magic examiner
    Rush up and blow through,
     like a gale from the south-southwest.
[11:40] magic examiner
    Listen to the sound of waves
    breaking down the walls!
[11:43] magic examiner
    Level-Five Nature Composed
    Magic, Shock Cyclone!
[11:51] Freed
    Th-That can't be.
SIGN    Knights of the Realm, Knight First Class
    Sylvester Ellsernia
[11:59] Sylvester
    What was that?
[12:03] Sylvester
    That huge noise wasn't something I'd
    associate with a test. What's going on?
[12:07] examiner B
    Oh, Sir Sylvester.
[12:10] Sylvester
    I see.
[12:11] Sylvester
    An F-rank adventurer destroyed a green
    slime bag with a bare-fisted punch
[12:16] Sylvester
    and then blocked a Level-Five Nature
     Composed magic with a Level-One.
[12:22] examiner B
    Yes.
[12:23] Sylvester
    Is this some kind of joke that's
    popular in the Guild right now?
[12:27] examiner B
    It's this Number 4242.
[12:31] Sylvester
    Rick Gladiatol, 32 years old.
[12:36] Sylvester
    Thirty-two?
[12:37] Sylvester
    Fourteen years as a receptionist at the
    Guild's Tiger Road Cinquat branch.
[12:42] instructor
    Begin!
[12:45] Sylvester
    Receptionist...
[12:48] Sylvester
    Is that a title awarded to someone
    who has defeated a dragon?
[12:52] examiner B
    I don't think so.
[12:54] Sylvester
    No, I thought not.

[13:06] Rick
    So that's the end of the preliminary test.
[13:09] Reanette
    How was the written exam?
[13:12] Rick
    I'm sure I got a perfect score!
[13:14] Rick
    Don't underestimate a former office clerk.
[13:16] Reanette
    You are a veteran with
    14 years of experience.
[13:19] Rick
    I wonder if I'll be able to
    pass the preliminary test.
[13:23] Reanette
    Are you concerned about
     the practical tests?
[13:25] Rick
    I think I did all right,
[13:28] Rick
    but I got an F minus for magical capacity.
[13:30] Reanette
    You will be fine.
[13:32] Reanette
    You have shown incredible growth
    over these last two years, have you not?
[13:39] Rick
    The last two years, huh?
[13:43] Freed
    You there, commoner!
[13:45] Rick
    Oh, you're the prodigy from the test.
[13:48] Rick
    Nu... Nu... Nu?
[13:51] Freed
    It's Freed Diarmuit!
[13:53] Freed
    There's no "nu" or any "n" sounds at all!
[13:56] Rick
    What's wrong? Are you lost?
[13:58] Rick
    You poor thing. I'll help
    you find your parents.
[14:02] Freed
    Don't make fun of me.
[14:04] Freed
    I was going to show off
     my genius in this test...
[14:09] Freed
    and make a magnificent debut...
[14:12] Rick
    You're crying?
[14:13] Freed
    But you stood out more than I did!
[14:16] Rick
    I didn't mean to!
[14:19] Angelica
    You there!
[14:21] Angelica
    You made Freed-chan cry?
[14:23] Angelica
    You have some nerve!
[14:27] Freed
    Oneesama!
[14:29] Rick
    Um, are you this young man's older sister?
[14:32] Angelica
    Indeed. I am Angelica.
[14:34] Angelica
    I'm the eldest daughter
    of the House of Diarmuit.
[14:36] Freed
    That 40-ish-year-old
    old man was bullying me!
[14:40] Rick
    I'm still 30-ish!
[14:43] Angelica
    There, there. What a horrible
    40-ish-year-old man.
[14:46] Rick
    I'm 30-ish!
[14:47] Angelica
    Silence. My adorable Freed
    is insisting it's so.
[14:51] Angelica
    So, you must be in the wrong,
    you 40-ish-year-old man.
[14:53] Rick
    I said, I'm 30-ish!
[14:55] Angelica
    All you have are excuses. How unseemly.
[14:59] Angelica
    I challenge you to a duel!
[15:02] Rick
    Seriously? Where did that come from?
[15:06] Rick
    And you've gotten your glove dirty.
[15:08] Rick
    A noble lady might not know this,
    but washing clothes is a lot of work.
[15:13] Reanette
    Rick-sama, wouldn't picking it up
    indicate that you have agreed to the duel?
[15:18] Rick
    Oh.
[15:20] Angelica
    You picked it up, didn't you?
[15:22] Angelica
    Prepare yourself!
[15:23] Angelica
    I, knight second class of the Knights
    of the Realm, Angelica Diarmuit,
[15:27] Angelica
    will now mete out punishment to
    this 40-ish-year-old peasant!
[15:31] Rick
    This has turned into a big mess.
[15:33] Angelica
    Each participant may propose
    one condition for the duel.
[15:37] Angelica
    That is how duels in the
    Kingdom of Filheim work.
[15:39] Angelica
    The condition I propose is that the loser
    must act as the victor's servant until death.
[15:46] Freed
    Get him, Angelica-oneesama!
[15:49] Angelica
    Indeed, I shall punish him most thoroughly.
[15:54] Rick
    Reanette, she said she's a knight
    second class of the Knights of the Realm.
[15:59] Reanette
    Yes. The Knights of the Realm act as protectors
    of peace in the Kingdom of Filheim.
[16:04] Reanette
    A knight second class would be the
    same level as a B-rank adventurer.
[16:08] Rick
    B-rank?!
[16:10] Rick
    At B-rank, you can defeat high-level
    monsters by yourself, right?!
[16:14] Reanette
    Please go easy on her.
[16:16] Rick
    No, no, no! I'm an F-rank who only
    just registered as an adventurer!
[16:22] Reanette
    Are you concerned?
[16:22] Rick
    Concerned doesn't cover it! I'm scared
    that I won't leave here alive!
[16:27] Reanette
    In that case, please remember your
    training from these last two years.
[16:32] Rick
    These last two years...
[16:40] Rick
    H-Help me. Someone, help...
[16:45] Reanette
    Well?
[16:47] Rick
    Are you trying to break my mind?
[16:49] Reanette
    But you aren't nervous anymore, are you?
[16:52] Reanette
    Please have more confidence in yourself.
[16:54] Reanette
    The party which prides itself on being the
    strongest on the continent, Orichalcum Fist,
[16:58] Reanette
    considers you one of its members.
[17:03] Rick
    Thank you, Reanette.
[17:05] Rick
    I'll be right back.
[17:07] Reanette
    Good luck, Rick-sama.
[17:10] Angelica
    It seems you've readied yourself.
[17:13] Rick; internal
    I'm up against a knight second class.
[17:16] Rick; internal
    I don't know how much I'll
    be able to do, but...
[17:20] Angelica
    However, you are only an F-rank.
[17:23] Angelica
    I will make certain allowances...
[17:25] Angelica
    and refrain from killing you.
[17:30] Rick; internal
    So, she's a swordsman-type that
    strengthens her body and weapons.
[17:33] Angelica
    Will you be able to keep up with my speed?
[17:38] Angelica
    Flickering Feet!
[17:45] Rick
    Wha—?
[17:46] Angelica
    In lieu of a greeting, I made
    myself just a little slower.
[17:50] Angelica
    Though it seems I was too
    quick for an F-rank like you.
[17:55] Angelica
    Are you so shocked that you
    can't even make a sound?
[18:00] Freed
    Did you see that,
    you 40-ish-year-old commoner?
[18:02] Freed
    Oneesama's speed has made people
    call her Angelica the Flash!
[18:07] Rick
    The Flash?
[18:12] Angelica
    This time, I won't deliberately miss!

[18:24] Rick; internal
    She's so slow.
[18:27] Rick; internal
    She's much slower than me
    just running normally.
[18:31] Rick; internal
    But he mentioned "the Flash"
    or something, didn't he?
[18:34] Rick; internal
    At this speed?
[18:35] Reanette
    Rick-sama.
[18:36] Rick
    Oh.
[18:37] Angelica; internal
    He dodged? And it seems as if
    he'd completely read my move.
[18:41] Angelica; internal
    No, that can't be possible.
[18:44] Angelica; internal
    Only a handful of knights first class
    can properly react to my speed.
[18:50] Angelica
    Even if you happened, by chance, to dodge
    once, there won't be a second time!
[18:54] Angelica
    Flickering Feet!
[18:57] Rick; internal
    She really is slow!
[18:59] Rick; internal
    This is a knight second class?
[19:02] Rick; internal
    Did she get into the
    knights through nepotism?
[19:05] Rick; internal
    Or could it be that I
    might be pretty strong?
[19:09] Rick; internal
    Yeah, right.
[19:12] Angelica
    A rock?
[19:14] Rick; internal
    Now, I'd better start—
[19:19] Rick; internal
    Will I be able to dodge this?
[19:27] Freed
    O-Oneesama?
[19:30] Rick
    I couldn't read her movement at all.
[19:32] Rick
    What an incredible skill!
[19:34] Rick; internal
    And I thought I might be strong?
    How arrogant can I be?
[19:39] Rick; internal
    I'm just an F-rank newbie.
[19:42] Rick; internal
    This overwhelming difference in ability...
[19:44] Rick; internal
    this is a knight second class.
[19:47] Angelica; internal
    I just tripped big-time,
[19:50] Angelica; internal
    but I'll pretend it was on purpose.
[19:52] Angelica
    So, you can dodge that
    attack too? Impressive.
[19:56] Angelica
    Then, I'll simply move faster.
[20:00] Angelica
    This next Flickering Feet takes
    a heavy toll on my body.
[20:03] Angelica
    It's a high-speed movement technique
    I can only use three times.
[20:06] Angelica
    My speed will be completely
    incomparable to what it was before.
[20:12] Angelica
    Flickering Feet, Thousandths!
SIGN    Flickering Feet
SIGN    Thousandths
[20:17] Rick; internal
    She's three times faster than
    before, but she's still slow.
[20:21] Rick; internal
    Still, if I move carelessly here,
    she might unleash another killer sword move.
[20:26] Angelica; internal
    He dodged that, too? Who is this man?
[20:33] Angelica; internal
    I can only use Thousandths two
    more times. What do I do?
[20:38] Angelica; internal
    No, if it didn't work the first time, then I
    just need to strike at top speed in succession!
[20:43] Angelica
    Flickering Feet, Thousandths!
[20:45] Rick; internal
    We'll never settle things at this rate.
[20:51] Angelica
    I missed again. One chance left.
[20:56] Angelica
    Willpower!
[20:59] Angelica
    Flickering Feet, Thousandths!
[21:01] Rick; internal
    All right. I'll take her charge and attack!
[21:05] Angelica
    Not again!
[21:08] Rick; internal
    She's attacking low?
[21:09] Rick; internal
    Blast it! Will I make it in time?
[21:29] Angelica; internal
    If I hadn't tripped...
[21:32] Angelica; internal
    that punch would have landed on me.
[21:34] Rick
    I knew it. You managed to dodge.
[21:37] Angelica
    J-Just who are you, really?
[21:40] Rick
    Huh?
[21:41] Rick
    Two years ago, I changed from being a Guild
    receptionist to being an adventurer.
[21:46] Rick
    I'm just an average F-rank adventurer.
[21:48] Angelica
    That's definitely a lie!
[21:50] Rick
    That's a knight second class for you.
[21:52] Rick
    I don't know don't know how effective
    my strength may be against you...
[21:57] Rick
    but I'll think of this as
    a learning experience...
[21:59] Angelica
    I-I-I...
[22:00] Rick
    and throw everything I have at you!
[22:01] Angelica
    I-I-I...
[22:02] Rick
    All right! Let's go!
[22:03] Angelica
    I surrender.
[22:05] Rick
    What? Surrender? Why?!
[22:08] Freed
    O-Oneesama?
[22:10] Angelica
    Th-This time, I'll let you have the win.
[22:15] Rick
    What? Are you sure?
[22:17] Angelica
    W-Well, um,
[22:19] Angelica
    seeing as you managed to dodge
    my Flickering Feet, I'll be lenient this time.
[22:24] Angelica
    We're leaving, Freed.
[22:25] Rick
    R-Right!
[22:28] Rick
    What about that promise?
[22:30] Angelica
    Ack!
[22:30] Rick
    If I remember right...
[22:32] (Flashback) Angelica
    The loser must act as
     the victor's servant until death.
[22:36] Rick
    That's what you said.
    I didn't propose anything,
[22:40] Rick
    so can I just use the same one as yours?
[22:46] Angelica
    Overcome your limits one more time, my legs.
[22:48] Angelica
    Flickering Feet, Thousandths!
[22:50] Freed
    Oneesama?!
[22:51] Rick
    That's the fastest she's moved!
[22:52] Freed
    O-Oneesama, please wait for me!
[22:55] Rick
    What was all that? Can I
    really consider this my win?
[23:00] Reanette
    Your opponent acknowledged it to be so.
[23:03] Rick
    It just doesn't feel right, though.
[23:06] Reanette
    Anyway, it's nearly time for
     the results of the preliminary test.
[23:10] Rick
    Oh, that's right!
[23:12] Rick
    I wonder if I passed.
[23:15] Reanette
    And Broughston-sama and the others
    will be arriving here soon.
[23:19] Rick
    What?
[23:20] Rick
    They're coming here? Why?
[23:22] Reanette
    Apparently, they're coming
     to see how you're faring.
[23:25] Rick
    What?!
[23:37] Rick
    I'm only getting bad feelings about this!
