[00:11] Adolf
    Guess you can't expect much more
     from an E-rank exam.
[00:15] Adolf
    Hey there! My name is Adolf.
[00:17] Adolf
    Pleased to make your acquaintance.
[00:19] Adolf
    Have you heard of the Four
    Foundational Faculties?
[00:22] Adolf
    The four Foundational Faculties are
    physical strength, body control,
SIGN    Physical Strength
SIGN    Body Control
SIGN    Magic Reserves
[00:26] Adolf
    magic reserves, and magic control.
SIGN    Magic Control
[00:28] Adolf
    Together, they greatly influence
    an adventurer's strength.
[00:31] Adolf
    And I...
[00:33] Adolf
    I have the ability to visualize the scores of other people's Four Foundational Faculties.
[00:37] Adolf
    I was born with this stupendous ability!
[00:40] Adolf
    That's right! Just like this...
[00:48] Adolf
    You see?
[00:49] Adolf
    Now, what about the examiner?
[00:54] Adolf
    Wow! Incredible!
[00:57] Adolf
    This is definitely someone who's A-rank!
[00:59] Adolf
    He's no simple examiner.
[01:01] Adolf
    My eyes! The strain on my eyes!
[01:04] Adolf
    It's dangerous to look at anyone too strong.
[01:07] Adolf; internal
    What's with that dreary-looking dude?
[01:11] Adolf
    Don't tell me he's taking
    the test at his age.
[01:14] Adolf
    That actually makes me curious
    about this ability scores.
[01:22] Adolf
    My eyes!

    My eyes!

    vs. an F-Rank Ossan
[02:56] Alisa
    Um, excuse me.
[02:59] Alisa
    I saw you with Rick-senpai yesterday.
[03:04] Alisa
    I worked with him when he
    was a Guild receptionist.
[03:07] Alisa
    My name is Alisa Granger.
[03:11] Reanette
    I am Reanette Elfelt.
[03:13] Reanette
    I am a member of the same
    party as Rick-sama.
[03:17] Alisa
    You are? I thought you might be!
[03:18] Alicerette
    Rea-chan! Over here!
[03:23] Reanette
    Would you care to join us?
[03:26] Alisa
    Yes, I'd love to!
[03:32] Alisa; internal
    Why is an orc here?
[03:34] Mizett
    Reanette-chan! The space next to me is open.
[03:37] Mizett
    Feel free to have a seat.
[03:38] Reanette
    If I do, I will be sexually harassed,
    so I decline your offer.
[03:41] Mizett
    You're no fun.
[03:43] Mizett
    So, who's she?
[03:44] Reanette
    Rick-sama's former co-worker, Alisa-sama.
[03:47] Alisa
    I'm Alisa! Pleased to meet you.
[03:52] Mizette
    Alisa-chan! The space next to me is open!
[03:54] Mizette
    Feel free to have a seat!
[03:56] Reanette
    If you do, you will be sexually
    harassed. Please come this way.
[04:03] Broughston
    How does our promising old rookie fare?
[04:07] Reanette
    Rick-sama will pass the exam
    without incident.
[04:11] Alisa
    Oh, but his examiner is Raster-san.
[04:14] Broughston
    Is there some sort of problem?
[04:16] Alisa
    Raster-san is A-rank, and he always
    overpowers the examinees more than necessary.
[04:22] Broughston
    If that's the case, it
    should not pose a problem.
[04:24] Reanette
    Indeed.
[04:26] Mizett
    Looks like it's about to start.
[04:30] Angelica
    Raster-oniisama, beat the stuffing
    out of that 40-ish year old oaf!
[04:34] Freed
    P-Please avenge me.
[04:37] Angelica
    F-Freed-chan?
[04:39] Raster
    I never imagined you'd escape
    our guards. That's a surprise.
[04:43] Raster
    But they are, after all,
     no more than trifling peasants.
[04:48] Raster
    It would be best if you did not assume that
    I, a noble and a genius, am like them.
[04:55] Rick
    Yes.
[04:57] Rick; internal
    I can tell that at a glance, and yet...
[05:01] Rick
    Let me ask you one thing.
[05:03] Rick
    Why did you become an adventurer?
[05:05] Raster
    What? Why, you ask?
[05:07] Raster
    Because I have a talent for it.
[05:10] Raster
    Even as a noble, being a former adventurer
    will only increase my status, you see?
[05:14] Raster
    So, I'm planning to quit
    at the appropriate time.
[05:18] Raster
    I've grown bored with it anyway.
[05:22] Rick
    I see.
[05:24] Rick
    In that case...
[05:25] Rick
    I don't want to lose to a guy like you!
[05:28] Raster
    You should speak to those your
    senior with more deference.
[05:32] Raster
    Though, who knows how long
     you'll be able to speak at all?
[05:36] Raster
    Now, let's begin. Level-One Nature
    Composed Magic, Ice Shot.
[05:43] Raster
    Come now. What's wrong?
     Have you been seized with fear?
[05:48] Rick; internal
    Don't let your anger control you.
[05:51] Rick; internal
    Stay calm and rational.
[05:53] Rick; internal
    First...
[05:55] (Flashback) Reanette
    Rick-sama, I have one piece of advice.
[05:58] (Flashback) Reanette
    After the match begins, use the
    first minute to calm your feelings.
[06:01] (Flashback) Reanette
    Please focus on observing your opponent.
[06:05] Rick; internal
    To be honest, I'm worried,
    but I'll trust Reanette!
[06:09] Raster
    If you won't attack, then I'll do as I like.
[06:12] Angelica
    Oniisama!
[06:14] Freed
    Get that 40-something commoner!
[06:16] Raster
    Level-Three Nature Composed Magic,
     Flame Illuminate!
[06:20] Rick; internal
    A Level-Three with no full incantation?
[06:23] Rick; internal
    But right now, observing is—
[06:27] Alisa
    Senpai!
[06:34] Alisa
    Senpai.
[06:36] Broughston
    For Rick, something that trifling
    doesn't qualify as taking a hit.
[06:39] Alisa
    Trifling?
[06:41] Broughston
    Do you know the Four Foundational Faculties
    that determine an adventurer's strength?
[06:45] Alisa
    Yes.
SIGN    Physical Strength
[06:47] Alisa
    Physical strength, body control,
     magic reserves, and magic control, right?
SIGN    Body Control
SIGN    Magic Reserves
SIGN    Magic Control
[06:52] Broughston
    That's right.
[06:53] Broughston
    And among them, one's magic reserves
    must be developed while one is young,
[06:57] Broughston
    or else there is no hope of further growth.
[07:00] Alisa
    Yes, it has to be done before
    a person reaches the age of 20.
[07:04] Alisa
    But Senpai became an adventurer
    when he was 30.
[07:08] Alisa
    That means...
[07:09] Broughston
    Exactly.
[07:11] Broughston
    And for that reason, Rick's magic
    reserves are extremely low.
[07:14] Broughston
    Which is why...
[07:16] (Flashback) Broughston
    Listen well, Rick,
[07:17] (Flashback) Broughston
    the one thing you will be able to
    count on in the end is your own body.
[07:21] (Flashback) Rick
    Yes, sir!
[07:22] (Flashback) Broughston
    Then, as a first step, let's
    go to the next village over.
[07:26] (Flashback) Rick
    Yes, sir! But...
[07:28] (Flashback) Rick
    why do I have these things on my legs?
[07:30] (Flashback) Broughston
    They should pose no difficulty.
[07:31] (Flashback) Broughston
    As we're just starting,
    they're only a hundred kilograms.
[07:34] (Flashback) Rick
    That's way too heavy!
[07:36] (Flashback) Broughston
    Make sure you keep up.
[07:38] (Flashback) Broughston
    There is a den of carnivorous
    monsters in this forest.
[07:41] (Flashback) Rick
    Huh?
[07:48] Broughston
    To make up for his lack in magic reserves,
[07:50] Broughston
    he trained exhaustively
    in the other three areas.
[07:52] Alisa
    What?
[07:53] Raster
    The next one will hurt a little
    more than the previous ones.
[07:56] Raster
    Level-Four Nature Composed
    Magic, Hurricane Cutter!
[08:03] Broughston
    For physical strength,
     I built him up from scratch.
[08:06] Alisa
    What?
[08:07] Broughston
    Magic control was taught by Mizett.
[08:10] Broughston
    He hates anything bothersome,
[08:11] Broughston
    so I'm impressed that he continued
    teaching for two years.
[08:14] Mizett
    Well, that's because the fella's gotta
    be able to put up a magical defense.
[08:19] Alicerette
    Me and Rikkun just played
    with magic together.
[08:24] Mizett
    If I'd slacked off, Rick-kun
    would end up a pile of ash.
[08:30] Broughston
    And he was trained in body
    control by Reanette.
[08:33] Alisa
    What? I thought you were a regular maid!
[08:36] Mizett
    Those clothes are just
    Reanette-chan's style.
[08:38] Broughston
    Rick latched on to all the
    training we gave him.
[08:43] Broughston
    He already stands within the
    realm of S-rank, the same as us.
[08:46] Raster
    You seem to be built as
    strong as you are simple.
[08:50] Raster
    Let's keep things moving.
[08:51] Raster
    Level-Four Nature Composed Magic, Shock Burn!
[08:55] Alisa
    S-rank...?
[08:58] Reanette
    Though he has no awareness of it himself.
[09:05] (Flashback) Broughston
    You still have a long way to go.
[09:06] (Flashback) Broughston
    Even an F-rank should destroy
    this with one blow.
[09:10] (Flashback) Rick
    Yes, sir.
[09:12] Mizett
    That's the bossman's fault.
[09:15] Raster
    That's right! You and that
    geriatric examiner, both!
[09:19] Raster
    All of you sub-third-rate laggards
    who refuse to see reality
[09:23] Raster
    deserve to be tormented by elites like me!
[09:29] Freed
    He did it!
[09:34] Raster
    I may have gotten a little worked up.
[09:47] Raster
    That unnecessary resilience of
    yours is starting to annoy me.
[09:52] Angelica
    Really, who is this 40-something?
[09:55] Raster
    Very well!
[09:56] Raster
    I shall finish you off with my own hands.

    What was that?
[10:14] Rick
    I understand.
[10:15] Raster
    Huh?
[10:17] Rick; internal
    I understand what Reanette meant.
[10:19] Rick; internal
    He's been so preoccupied with
    the talents he was born with,
[10:22] Rick; internal
    he neglected to refine and further them.
[10:26] Rick; internal
    True, he has vast reserves
    of magical energy,
[10:29] Rick; internal
    but the rest is far too sloppy!

[11:13] Rick
    Magic that's been thrown together so sloppily
    doesn't really warrant more magic to block it.
[11:19] Mizett
    He worked his magic with a high
    degree of accuracy to block that.
[11:23] Mizett
    He didn't even use a hundred thousandth
    of the energy his opponent did.
[11:27] Mizett
    Even someone with low magic
    reserves like Rick-kun
[11:29] Mizett
    can do that if they've got
    precise magic control.
[11:32] Raster
    I'm amazed you can be that cocky just
    because of a series of coincidences.
[11:36] Raster
    There won't be another.
[11:38] Raster
    Flickering Feet, Thousandths!
[11:39] Rick
    Too slow.
[11:40] Raster
    Iron Body!
[11:46] Angelica
    Oniisama used strengthening magic,
    but the 40-something didn't?
[11:50] Angelica
    I knew it. He just isn't normal.
[11:53] Raster
    I see. It seems you possess
    abilities above those of E-rank.
[11:58] Raster
    I'll admit that.
[12:00] Raster
    And I've grown tired from testing
    more examinees than I'd planned on.
[12:05] Raster
    In addition to which, chance has
    repeatedly taken your side.
[12:09] Raster
    Your luck certainly is good for
    a lowly, sub-third-rate oaf.
[12:14] Rick
    Just how reluctant are you to acknowledge me?
[12:17] Rick
    What I used wasn't even magic.
     It was just body control!
[12:21] Rick
    But my level of precision is far
    superior to your strengthening magic!
[12:26] Raster
    Then let me ask you something.
    All you have is a modicum of magic.
[12:31] Raster
    So how did you, at your age,
     get so strong in just two years?
[12:37] Rick
    You're asking me how?
[12:39] Rick; background
    Let me out! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!
[12:41] Rick
    I wasn't allowed out of the dragon's
    lair until I'd defeated it.
[12:44] Rick; background
    It's hot! I'm gonna die!
    It's hot! I'm gonna die!
[12:45] Rick
    I ran through a succession of explosions.
[12:48] Rick; background
    I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die.
[12:48] Rick
    I swam through monster capture
    fluid until I choked on it.
[12:53] Alisa
    Wait, wouldn't he have died
    a few times doing that?
[12:57] Broughston
    Yes, he died.
[12:58] Alisa
    He died?!
[13:00] Broughston
    If it's applied immediately after death,
    my Heal can bring a person back to life.
[13:06] Broughston
    It's by overcoming our physical limitations,
[13:08] Broughston
    repeatedly breaking down and rebuilding
    our bodies, that we become stronger.
[13:12] Mizett
    Rick-kun really did hang in there.
[13:17] (Flashback) Mizett
    Right, then! Let's go, Rick-kun.
[13:19] (Flashback) Rick
    Huh? This is way too hi—
[13:22] (Flashback) Mizett
    Feel the wind with your whole body!
[13:25] (Flashback) Mizett
    You'll develop a sense of
    being able to see the wind!
[13:30] (Flashback) Mizett
    Bossman! Can we get a Heal over here?
[13:36] (Flashback) Alicerette
    There!
[13:37] (Flashback) Rick
    Level-One Nature Composed Magic, Air—
[13:57] (Flashback) Reanette
    The trick is to make use of the
    weight of the falling objects.
[14:01] (Flashback) Rick
    I-I see!
[14:08] (Flashback) Rick
    I don't think that's the only trick to this.
[14:13] Raster
    Those are terrible lies.
[14:15] Raster
    Even if such severe training were to exist,
[14:18] Raster
    what could possibly have
    been your motivation?
[14:21] Rick
    I'm just like Laurotte-san,
    the man you injured.
[14:25] Rick
    My dream was my motivation.
[14:27] Raster
    Yes, yes. Dreams, right?
[14:29] Raster
    So, what's your dream?
[14:31] Rick
    To defeat the world's strongest monster,
     Kaiser Alsapiet!
[14:39] Freed
    Oneesama, he's just an idiot!
[14:45] Raster
    Come now. Are you saying
    that in all seriousness?
[14:48] Alisa
    Kaiser Alsapiet.
[14:51] Alisa
    Isn't that the ultimate monster that appears
    in the Legends of the Hero Yamato?
[14:56] Reanette
    Yes, it is.
[14:58] Broughston
    That is also our, Orichalcum
    Fist's, ultimate goal.
[15:03] Raster
    The Legends of the Hero Yamato
    are just bedtime stories!
[15:07] Raster
    Defeating Alsapiet is the
    dream of a small child.
[15:11] Rick
    If you think they're just
    stories, that's fine.
[15:13] Rick
    It has nothing to do with you, anyway.
[15:16] Raster
    That's true. And I can't be bothered
     with your nonsense anymore.
[15:20] Raster
    I think it's time to put an end to this.
[15:22] Raster
    Level-Seven Nature Composed Magic, Forest Rope!
[15:28] Rick
    Level Seven without a full incantation?
    You're pretty handy at this.
[15:32] Raster
    Don't be surprised just yet.
[15:34] Raster
    I'll show you what true talent is and make it
     so you never utter another arrogant word.

[15:44] Raster
    tree of calamity, bud of tragedy,
     all things in nature,

    confronted by the laws of impermanence,
    all shall bow their heads!
[15:54] Rick
    This incantation...
[15:55] Raster
    Now watch! This is the greatest
    magic a human can wield,
[16:00] Raster
    Level-Eight Nature Composed Magic!
[16:02] Raster
    The greatest magic that I, the Man
    of a Thousand Abilities, possess!
[16:25] Freed
    There it is! Oniisama's killer move!
[16:28] Angelica
    Get him, I say!
[16:30] Alisa
    This is the first time I've seen
    Level-Eight Nature Composed Magic.
[16:36] Raster
    Now, grovel before me!
[16:39] Raster
    I shall use this to finish you!
[16:46] Raster
    Is that an Air Shot?
[16:48] Raster
    What are you planning to
    do with such basic magic?
[16:51] Rick
    Punch straight through!
[16:54] Raster
    Are you so full of yourself that
    you've grown desperate now?
[16:57] Rick
    How many times have you used
    that magic, including practice?
[17:01] Raster
    No idea. After all, I mastered it
    after only a handful of times.
[17:06] Rick
    I've used this magic a
    hundred million times.
[17:10] Freed
    A hundred million times? That's clearly
    a bluff, you stupid 40-ish peasant.
[17:15] Alisa
    A hundred million times in two years?
[17:18] Alisa
    Isn't that physically impossible?
[17:21] Broughston
    It's possible with the use
    of special space-time magic.
[17:24] Broughston
    Rick has actually done what he said.
[17:27] Raster
    Enough! I'm tired of listening
    to your inane lies!
[17:31] Raster
    Now, I'll do exactly as I did
    to that geriatric examiner
[17:34] Raster
    and smash that ridiculous
    dream of yours to pieces!
[17:45] Raster
    Level-Eight Nature Composed Magic,
    Yggdrasil God Impact!
[17:51] Rick
    Level-One Nature Composed Magic, Air Shot!
[17:58] Raster
    Now I will crush you,
    you sub-third-rate oaf!
[18:18] Raster
    No, it can't be! This just can't
    happen to a noble like me!
[18:31] Anglica
    O-Oniisama?
[18:35] Rick
    What's wrong, Mister Super First-Rate Elite?
[18:39] Rick
    My dream is still completely unharmed.
[18:42] crowd
    Who'd have thought he'd beat Raster?
[18:45] crowd
    He looks like any ordinary old guy.
[18:47] Alisa
    Senpai, you're incredible!
[18:59] Reanette
    Well done. It was a good fight.
[19:02] Broughston
    It was a magnificent strike.
[19:04] Mizett
    Yeah, I was—
[19:05] Alicerette
    Rikkun, congratulations!
[19:06] Mizett
    Hey! And no one can see me with you there!
[19:09] Rick
    Thank you.
[19:10] Alisa
    Senpai! You were so amazing out there!
[19:13] Rick
    Was I?
[19:17] Rick
    I've gotten quite a lot stronger, haven't I?
[19:20] Rick
    Actually, why did I have the wrong
    idea about that all this time?
[19:24] Rick
    Truly, thank you all so very much.
[19:27] Reanette
    Please, lift your head, Rick-sama.
[19:30] Mizett
    That's right. Getting all formal like
    that just makes things awkward.
[19:34] Alicerette
    Instead of all that, let's go eat something!
[19:37] Broughston
    You did well, Rick.
[19:42] Raster
    I'm fine!
[19:43] Angelica
    Well, you don't look fine at all!
[19:46] Freed
    Hurry up and get yourself treated!
[19:48] Raster
    I'm telling you, I'm fine.
[19:50] Rick
    Hey, North—no, Raster!
[19:55] Rick
    You're wondering how you,
    a genius and an elite,
[19:57] Rick
    could have lost to a
    late-starter like me, right?
[20:01] Raster
    What now? Did you come just
    to make snide remarks?
[20:04] Freed
    Hey, you 40-something! My brother is—
[20:07] Freed
    Oneesama?
[20:09] Rick
    I limited the number of techniques I use,
    and I trained myself exhaustively in them.
[20:13] Rick
    First, you should refine a single technique
    until you feel like you'll vomit blood.
[20:19] Rick
    This is just some advice
    from a senpai in life.
[20:22] Rick
    I have high hopes for you,
    my adventuring senpai!
[20:32] Raster
    At your next promotion test,
     I will be your examiner again.
[20:38] Raster
    And when that happens,
     I will be the one who wins.
[20:41] Raster
    You'd better be ready, third-rater.
[20:44] Freed
    Oniisama!
[20:54] Angelica
    Come, Raster-oniisama.
[21:03] announcement
    Thank you for waiting.
[21:05] announcement
    We will now announce those who
    have passed the E-rank test.

[21:24] announcement

[21:26] Number 4027
    I did it!
[21:28] Number 4028
    I made it!
[21:31] Alisa
    Um, should we really have come
    here before the announcement?
[21:35] Broughston
    It's fine.
[21:36] Mizett
    We're actually being considerate here.
[21:39] Mizett
    Hey, miss! What time do you get off work?
[21:43] announcement
    These are the examinees with numbers
    4050 and higher who have passed.
[21:47] announcement
    Number 4055. Number 4057.
    Number 4060. Number 4065.
[21:52] Reanette
    Rick-sama, you seem calm.
[21:55] Reanette
    You were so nervous when you
    passed the preliminary exam.
[21:58] Rick
    Yes, well...
[22:01] Rick
    I was just remembering a few things.
