[01:02] Rentt
Crap. I'm gonna die.
[01:13] Rentt
Give me a break.
[01:16] Rentt
I...
[01:20] Rentt
I'm supposed to become a
mithril-class adventurer!
[01:53] Rentt
Huh?
[01:55] Rentt
Wait, wait. This can't be happening.
[02:06] Rentt
This can't be happening!

Episode.01 Unwanted Undead
[03:51] Rentt
The day starts early for adventurers.
[03:54] Rentt
Which sounds nice,
[03:57] Rentt
but the day starts early
for most poor people.
[04:00] Rentt
The only people who sleep until
noon are nobles, wealthy merchants,
[04:06] Rentt
and scholars living disorderly lives.
[04:08] Rennt
Maybe that's just my bias talking, though.
[04:11] Rennt
But my scholar friend sometimes forget
[04:12] Rennt
to sleep for days because they're
so focused on their research.
[04:16] Rentt
I should check in on them soon.
[04:19] Rennt
Either way, it's not something a
low bronze-class adventurer,
[04:24] Rennt
born and raised in a town
too small to be on the map,
[04:27] Rennt
Rentt Faina, knows anything about.
[04:31] (Flashback) Rentt
Okay.
[04:33] Rentt
There's one reason adventurers get up early,
[04:36] Rentt
and that's to get good jobs.
[04:39] Rentt
The adventurers' guild provides us with
jobs suitable for our rank and skills.
[04:46] Rentt
All manner of jobs are available,
such as monster extermination,
[04:49] Rentt
protection, herb and material gathering,
and even cleaning muck out of drains.
[04:54] (Flashback) Adventurer A
Hey, Rentt.
[04:56] (Flashback) Rentt
Good morning.
[04:57] (Flashback) Adventurer B
Are you going to the Labyrinth of
The Moon's Reflection again today?
[05:00] (Flashback) Rentt
If there aren't any good jobs.
[05:02] (Flashback) Adventurer C
How do you work so hard every day?
[05:04] (Flashback) Adventurer A
Well, see you later.
[05:05] (Flashback) Rentt
Good luck.
[05:07] (Flashback) Adventurer B
You, too.
[05:07] (Flashback) Adventurer C
Later.
[05:17] (Flashback) Rentt
Guess I'll go to the
Labyrinth of The Moon's Reflection.
[05:21] Rentt
Most adventurers form parties,
but I generally work solo.
[05:26] Rentt
There are a few reasons for that,
but mostly, it's because I'm not very good.
[05:30] Rentt
Even though I've been
adventuring for ten years,
[05:33] Rentt
I'm still only bronze,
the second lowest rank.
[05:47] Rentt
But even I can make a living
[05:50] Rentt
hunting monsters and selling magic
stones and materials to the guild.
[05:54] (Flashback) Shopkeeper
Thank you. Come again.
[05:56] Rentt
Most of all, I live conscientiously
for an adventurer.
[06:00] Rentt
I've even got an emergency fund.
[06:09] Rentt
But in that moment, I lost my prudence
that's essential to all adventurers...
[06:17] Rentt
because in the thoroughly-explored
[06:19] Rentt
and completely deserted
Labyrinth of The Moon's Reflection,
[06:23] Rentt
I found something unbelievable.
[06:35] (Flashback) Rentt
Could it be?
[06:38] (Flashback) Rentt
A secret passageway?
[06:45] (Flashback) Rentt
What a discovery!
[06:58] (Flashback) Rentt
There's no mistaking it.
[07:00] (Flashback) Rentt
This is an unexplored area.
[07:03] (Flashback) Rentt
Maybe I'll find some valuable
magical equipment or weapons.
[07:08] Rentt
No, I could make a killing simply
reporting this news to the guild.
[07:14] Rentt
I should've ignored it,
[07:17] Rentt
but I went charging right into that
suspicious and dangerous place alone.
[07:23] Rentt
Because I'm a fool.
[07:33] Rentt
I found myself facing a dragon.
[07:39] Rentt
The greatest of all monsters.
[07:40] Rentt
A real dragon.
[07:42] Rentt
According to legend, they take many forms,
[07:45] Rentt
and some are considerably larger
than most standard dragons.
[07:49] Rentt
Regardless, I realized right away
that it was a dragon,
[07:52] Rentt
even though I'd never seen it before.
[07:55] Rentt
Its sheer presence—
[07:57] Rentt
the pressure it exerted that
froze me to the spot—
[07:59] Rentt
attested that it was a dragon.
[08:02] Rentt
As the thousand-year
bronze-class adventurer,
[08:06] Rentt
I stood no chance against
such an exceptional creature.
[08:13] Rentt
How am I alive after being eaten by a dragon?
[08:17] Rentt
No, wait. Am I actually alive?
[08:24] Rentt
I'm very obviously a skeleton.
[08:28] Rentt
I'm an immortal monster known as an undead,
[08:32] Rentt
but a bishop or priest could easily
destroy me with their purification magic
[08:39] Rentt
because undead violate
the divine providence
[08:44] Rentt
that the dead are not meant for this world.
[08:47] Rentt
When I think of it that way,
does that mean I died?
[08:51] Rentt
No, I'm still conscious and have my memories.
[08:54] Rentt
I should return to town.
[09:02] Rentt
No, I can't do that.
[09:04] Rentt
I don't want to die yet.
[09:06] Rentt
No, wait. I'm already dead,
so I don't want to be destroyed.
[09:10] Rentt
Oh, no! I'm confused!
[09:12] Rentt
An adventurer mustn't lose his head!
[09:15] Rentt
There's no point in thinking about
questions I can't answer right now.
[09:24] Rentt
The dragon seems to be gone,
[09:27] Rentt
but I should start by getting away from here.
[09:31] Rentt
These labyrinths can be
found around the world.
[09:33] Rentt
Many researches are trying
to explain their mysteries,
[09:37] Rentt
but no one really knows where
they come from or how they work.
[09:41] Rentt
Labyrinths come in various sizes,
[09:43] Rentt
but precious magical equipment and
treasures slumber within them,
[09:46] Rentt
and monsters can be found
around every corner.
[09:49] Rentt
Monsters are mysterious, as well.
[09:54] Rentt
Everyone's likely at the Labyrinth of the
New Moon where there's good money to be had.
[09:58] Rentt
In a few days, some solo adventurers
like me should come here.
[10:02] Rentt
I'll try asking them for advice.
[10:04] Rentt
Oh!
[10:06] Rentt
First I need to figure out
how I'll talk to them.
[10:10] Rentt
Huh?
[10:19] Rentt
My body feels heavy.
[10:21] Rentt
Maybe because I have no muscles,
my physical abilities are significantly worse.
[10:25] Rentt
I'm even less capable
than an ordinary person.
[10:29] Rentt
That's to be expected.
[10:30] Rentt
After all, I'm a skeleton now.
[10:33] Rentt
I could defeat them easily as a human,
but I need to be careful now.
[10:39] Rentt
I can't raise my sword!
[10:41] Rentt
That's not good!
[10:59] Rentt
I shouldn't expect to use fancy sword
techniques when I'm made of bones.
[11:05] Rentt
But what about my other abilities?
[11:07] Rentt
All living things draw on their
vital energy for strength.
[11:11] Rentt
Their spirit energy.
[11:14] Rentt
It's working.
[11:18] Rentt
Right now, you and I are the same.
[11:20] Rentt
Our strength is equal.
[11:22] Rentt
But my equipment gives me an advantage.
[11:26] Rentt
If I use my spirit energy to buff my
physical abilities and raise my attack power...
[11:42] Rentt
Is it still alive?
[11:52] Rentt
I'm recovering the spirit
energy I just expended?
[11:56] Rentt
Could it be?
[11:59] (Flashback) Lorraine
Monsters have a mysterious trait.
[12:03] (Flashback) Lorraine
With time and experience,
they evolve into greater beings.
[12:09] (Flashback) Rentt
So do humans.
[12:11] (Flashback) Rentt
We grow with training.
[12:14] (Flashback) Lorraine
They're on another level.
[12:16] (Flashback) Lorraine
For example, a skeleton is
typically a skeleton forever.
[12:21] (Flashback) Lorraine
But on rare occasions,
they evolve into ghouls.
[12:24] (Flashback) Lorraine
It's known as
[12:27] (Flashback) Lorraine
existential evolution.
[12:29] (Flashback) Rentt
Existential evolution...
[12:31] (Flashback) Lorraine
Yes. It's one of the
subjects I'm researching.
[12:37] Rentt
Existential evolution, huh?
[12:40] Rentt
Ghouls are also undead, but they
have flesh and are closer to humans.
[12:45] Rentt
If I use robes and masks to hide my form,
I may be able to return to town.
[12:49] Rentt
All right. I should aim to achieve
existential evolution first.
[12:53] Rentt
I'll defeat monsters in this
labyrinth and become a ghoul.
[13:05] Lorraine
He didn't come today, either.
[13:08] Lorraine
Oh, well.
[13:10] Lorraine
I'll make dinner myself.
[13:14] Rentt
That's five!
[13:18] Rentt
My mobility has been mostly restored.
[13:24] Rentt
Anyway, it seems like this light heals me.
[13:29] Rentt
Because of it, I can use spirit
energy during every battle.
[13:33] Rentt
I'll try taking on some
stronger monsters next.
[13:43] Rentt
Like skeletons, slimes are
an archetypal weak monster,
[13:47] Rentt
but they mustn't be underestimated.
[13:49] Rentt
Physical attacks are less effective
against amorphous liquid monsters.
[13:54] Rentt
Magic is the easy way to beat them,
[13:57] Rentt
but unfortunately, I don't have the
ability to use offensive magic.
[14:01] Rentt
The most I can do is start fires
suitable for domestic tasks.
[14:05] Rentt
So I'll have to use physical
attacks to defeat it.
[14:08] Rentt
There are two ways to do it.
[14:10] Rentt
Pierce its core, or break apart its
liquid form until it can't regenerate.
[14:16] Rentt
Lacking in both skill and strength,
[14:19] Rentt
once a day I can expend my reserves
of spirit energy to defeat them.
[14:24] Rentt
You could say slimes are my greatest enemy.
[14:38] Rentt
Huh?
[14:40] Rentt
Looks like I got lucky and
my blade struck its core.
[14:44] Rentt
First I'll retrieve its magic stone.
[14:48] Rentt
Slimes have the ability
to launch an Acid Blitz,
[14:52] Rentt
but no acid remains in their
body once they're dead.
[14:55] Rentt
In fact, sticking your hand in
the stuff makes your skin smooth.
[14:59] Rentt
Clear slime fluids are used
to make cosmetics for women.
[15:04] Rentt
Surely we don't have to make
cosmetics out of monsters.
[15:08] Rentt
Women's desire for beauty must be endless.
[15:13] Rentt
This'll pay for several days at an inn.
[15:16] Rentt
Good.
[15:24] Sheila
Take care.
[15:27] Worker A
Sheila.
[15:28] Sheila
Yes?
[15:29] Worker A
Has that newbie found a party yet?
[15:31] Worker A
Her letter of introduction said
she lacks combat experience,
[15:34] Worker A
but she seems all right with a sword.
[15:37] Sheila
There wasn't a suitable opening for them,
so I was going to ask Rentt,
[15:42] Sheila
but he hasn't been back since yesterday.
[15:45] Worker A
That's unusual.
[15:47] Worker A
He hasn't accepted a long-term job, has he?
[15:49] Sheila
No, nothing that would take him out of Maalt.
[15:53] Sheila
I told the newbie I'd introduce her to a
helpful veteran if she waited a few days,
[16:01] Sheila
but she seemed pressed for money,
[16:03] Sheila
so I told her about the
Labyrinth of The Moon's Reflection.
[16:05] Worker A
That should be fine.
[16:07] Worker A
Even a newbie should be able to handle it,
if they're decent with a sword.
[16:10] Sheila
Right. I did warn her
not to overdo it, though.
[16:18] Rentt
I don't feel sleepy at all,
and I don't feel hungry, either.
[16:23] Rentt
I guess that's obvious since I'm undead.
[16:26] Rentt
Anything I ate would probably
fall to the ground.
[16:30] Rentt
I fought all night since I might as well,
[16:33] Rentt
but it seems like existential
evolution takes longer than that.
[16:38] Rentt
My physical abilities were significantly
worse right after I became a skeleton,
[16:42] Rentt
but I'm mostly back to normal
after defeating those monsters.
[16:47] Rentt
I tested my spirit energy,
and it still works.
[16:50] Rentt
I can use my mana, too.
[16:56] Rentt
I can even use my divinity
despite being undead.
[17:02] Rentt
I don't want to waste it.
I'll use it on this bread.
[17:05] Rentt
In addition to curing injuries and illnesses,
[17:09] Rentt
divinity is a useful power that can
purify water and delay spoiling in food.
[17:15] Rentt
Okay. That should make
it last three more days.
[17:18] Rentt
I hope I'll have a body that
needs bread three days from now.
[17:23] Rentt
There's no point in thinking about it.
[17:26] Rentt
I should focus on achieving
existential evolution.
[17:28] Rentt
I'll play it safe for a while
and steadily defeat monsters.
[17:35] Rentt
I can beat one or two.
[17:37] Rentt
Three would be difficult.
[17:39] Rentt
If I encounter four, I'll run.
[17:42] Rentt
And more than five...
[17:44] Rentt
It's unlikely I'll encounter groups
that large in this labyrinth,
[17:48] Rentt
but if I do, I'm screwed.
[17:51] Rentt
That would be the end of me.
[17:57] Rentt
I'm so weak.
[18:00] Rentt
It's been ten years since
I became an adventurer.
[18:03] Rentt
If you include my training time
before that, it's been twenty years.
[18:06] Rentt
Not only that, but even
high-ranking adventurers rarely
[18:10] Rentt
have spirit energy, mana, and divinity.
[18:14] Rentt
I wish I had just one strong power.
[18:21] Rentt
I know I'm not cut out to be an adventurer.
[18:29] Rentt
Normally, people give up on
adventuring after a few years
[18:33] Rentt
and return to their village
to farm or find another job.
[18:39] Rentt
But I figured as long as I'm alive,
I'd manage somehow.
[18:43] Rentt
I trained every day without fail.
[18:47] Rentt
I asked an acquaintance to teach
me about monsters and magic.
[18:51] Rentt
I accepted even the most minor jobs.
[18:54] Rentt
I did that for ten years to achieve my dream.
[19:00] Rentt
To become a mithril-class adventurer.
[19:04] Rentt
Higher than gold- and platinum-class,
[19:07] Rentt
not even naturally gifted people
easily reach the highest rank
[19:11] Rentt
of adventurers who have saved entire nations.
[19:18] Rentt
I will become mithril-class.
[19:22] Rentt
It's what I've lived for.
[19:25] Rentt
Becoming a skeleton won't stop me!
[19:40] Rentt
Huh?
[19:41] Rentt
I'm starting to get stronger
than I was as a human?
[19:59] Rentt
I knew it.
[20:01] Rentt
It's not a coincidence.
[20:03] Rentt
I'm getting stronger.
[20:06] Rentt
I can sell these materials.
I should gather some more.
[20:10] Rentt
I'm lucky to acquire more clear slime fluid.
[20:14] Rentt
Slimes are fairly gross after
they've eaten something,
[20:17] Rentt
so their fluids can't be sold.
[20:28] Rentt
Wha— What's happening?
[21:07] Rentt
I'm a ghoul.
[21:09] Rentt
I'm a creepy dried-out corpse,
but I have flesh.
[21:14] Rentt
This is major progress.
[21:16] Rentt
If I keep working hard, I might be able
to become even higher ranking undead.
[21:21] Rentt
That's right.
[21:22] Rentt
Vampires practically look human.
[21:25] Rentt
Oh, right. I have a fleshy body now.
[21:35] Rentt
Okay, I can make noises.
[21:39] Rentt
Hello... hello...
[21:45] Rentt
Good morning...
[21:52] Rentt
I'll have to practice.
[21:55] Rentt
Hello... hello...
[21:59] Rentt
I am Rentt...

[00:17] Rentt
Goblins can be dangerous in groups,
[00:20] Rentt
but I can use the layout of the dungeon
to force them into one-on-one fights,
[00:23] Rentt
where they're helpless against me.
[00:28] Rentt
I existential evolved into a ghoul,
and I've got some muscle now.
[00:31] Rentt
I'm much more agile than
I was as a skeleton.
[00:34] Rentt
And the biggest surprise was
that my mana, spirit energy,
[00:38] Rentt
and divinity have all increased.
[00:40] Rentt
Now I can strengthen not
only myself, but my sword.
[00:56] Rentt
Maybe... I'm even stronger
now than I was as a human!
SIGN The Rookie and
the Veteran
[03:03] Rentt
It's been so long since I've seen a human.
[03:07] Rentt
No, I can't go out there like this.
[03:11] Rentt
I'm a ghoul. She'd either
try to kill me or run away.
[03:15] Rentt
So I'll just watch from a distance.
[03:20] Rentt
I'm so jealous she gets to be human.
[03:23] Rentt
I don't recognize her. Is she a rookie?
[03:27] Rentt
I know pretty much every
adventurer in Maalt, actually.
[03:31] Rentt
The reason I know them is because
adventurers can be a rough crowd,
[03:35] Rentt
and a lot of them will make
fun of weaklings like me,
[03:38] Rentt
or try to get us to take the
fall for something they did.
[03:41] Rentt
Knowing their abilities and who
their friends are can help a lot.
[03:46] Rentt
Having fewer bad guys around made the
adventurers in Maalt a lot better than most.
[03:52] Rentt
And the guild seems to like having me around.
[03:55] Rentt
As weak as I am, hasn't
told me I need to retire.
[04:10] Rentt
That way leads to...
[04:26] Rentt
She's received proper training.
[04:30] Rentt
But she's weak, so she needs
to land a lot of hits.
[04:33] Rentt
She's probably planning on taking her
time and dodging while she defeats it...
[04:38] Rentt
But she's not watching
her surroundings at all.
[04:45] Rina
I'm going to become a real adventurer!
[04:50] Rina
I won't let a skeleton beat me!
[05:02] Rentt
I guess I've got no choice.
[05:08] Rina
A ghoul?!
[05:11] Rentt
Come on... The enemy just turned
its back to you! Attack it!
[05:16] Rentt
No, I guess she's too stunned
to think about that.
[05:27] Rina
Wow.
[05:30] Rentt
Um...
[05:32] Rentt
I'm glad you're safe...
[05:37] Rentt
H-Hello... I'm R-Rentt...
[05:43] Rentt
Rentt!
[05:46] Rina
Stay away from me!
[05:48] Rentt
Please! Listen to me!
[05:51] Rentt
I'm not your enemy...
[05:57] Rentt
P-Please...
[05:59] Rina
It's... talking?
[06:01] Rentt
Y-Yes!
[06:03] Rentt
I'm Rentt...
[06:06] Rentt
An adventurer...
[06:08] Rina
An adventurer? An adventurer!
[06:11] Rentt
Yes!
[06:12] Rentt
I'm an adventurer!
[06:15] Rentt
My name is Rentt!
[06:18] Rina
Rendo?
[06:20] Rentt
Renro... Rentt!
[06:23] Rina
Rentt!
[06:25] Rentt
Yes!
[06:27] Rina
So, why do you look like that, Rentt?
[06:33] Rina
Some kind of disguise?
[06:34] Rentt
N-No! I died...
[06:38] Rentt
But... I'm alive!
[06:42] Rina
Yes, you don't look like a normal monster.
[06:46] Rina
Thank you for saving me.
[06:49] Rentt
Adventurers... look out for each other...
[06:54] Rina
Um... I appreciate you saying that.
[06:56] Rina
So... I hate to ask, but...
[07:00] Rentt
What?
[07:02] Rina
Can I go back?
[07:05] Rina
You're not going to kill me, right?
[07:07] Rentt
I-I'm not going to kill you...
[07:10] Rentt
But I want your help...
[07:14] Rina
Help?
[07:15] Rentt
I want you... to buy me clothes.
[07:20] Rina
Clothes?
[07:22] Rentt
I want to go back to Maalt.
[07:25] Rina
Oh... so perhaps a robe
that would hide your body?
[07:30] Rentt
Thank you...
[07:32] Rentt
M-Money...
[07:36] Rentt
If you... buy me those clothes...
you can have the rest.
[07:47] Rentt
Please...
[07:52] Rina
My name is Rina Rupaage.
[07:54] Rina
As the daughter of a knight,
I shall repay this debt.
[08:04] Rina
Just wait for me, Rentt...
[08:10] Rentt
She's pretty cautious around me.
[08:12] Rentt
For an adventurer, that's
the right way to be, but...
[08:16] Rentt
A proper adventurer would report
[08:18] Rentt
something as strange as a ghoul
like me to the guild immediately.
[08:23] Rentt
But I don't think she'll betray me.
[08:27] Rentt
Even if I'm wrong, though, I'll cross
that bridge when I come to it.
[08:40] Rina
Excuse me!
[08:42] Sheila
Aren't you...?
[08:47] Sheila
You don't look hurt. I'm glad.
[08:50] Sheila
I was worried because you didn't
come back after sunset.
[08:55] Rina
Well, a lot happened.
[08:58] Rina
There's something I want
to ask you, actually...
[09:08] Rentt
I can't believe it... but I'm a lot
stronger than I was as a human.
[09:13] Rentt
It's not just that I'm stronger.
[09:15] Rentt
My body moves exactly how I want it to!
[09:22] Rentt
And I think my vision's better, too...
[09:25] Rentt
No, this is probably just what
they call combat intuition.
[09:29] Rentt
Something you can't learn
from training or studying.
[09:31] Rentt
So this is how the world looked to all
the adventurers that succeeded...
[09:36] Rentt
To think I only got the power I wanted
most after I ended up in this body...
[09:41] Rina
Rentt?
[09:43] Rina
Rentt, where are you?
[09:50] Rina
Rentt?
[09:53] Rentt
S-She really came back...
[09:57] Rina
Rentt!
[10:02] Rina
Um... you're Rentt, right?
[10:06] Rina
Or are you another ghoul, perhaps?
[10:09] Rentt
I'm Rentt.
[10:11] Rentt
Ghouls don't show up on the
early levels like this.
[10:16] Rina
I see...
[10:19] Rina
I feel like you've gotten a
little better at talking.
[10:23] Rentt
I-I practiced...
[10:26] Rina
G-Great idea!
[10:28] Rina
Oh, right. This is what you
asked for and your change.
[10:40] Rina
S-Sorry... I'm still a little scared.
[10:45] Rina
Give me a little more time... Just a
little more time until I get used to you!
[10:49] Rentt
No, it's fine...
[10:53] Rentt
Now, may I look at the clothes?
[10:56] Rina
Of course! Go ahead!
[11:05] Rentt
Wow.
[11:07] Rina
Do you like them?
[11:09] Rentt
Yes.
[11:11] Rentt
A plain color that nobody
would give a second glance,
[11:14] Rentt
and a robe that conceals the whole body,
like a mage would wear! Wonderful!
[11:19] Rentt
It's perfect!
[11:22] Rina
I brought other things I
thought you might need.
[11:25] Rina
I just got to Maalt, so I had someone
in the guild show me the best shops.
[11:35] Rina
It felt like a bad idea to let
anyone see your arms or legs...
[11:40] Rentt
What a kind, considerate girl!
[11:45] Rentt
I feel like I could cry!
Except I physically can't!
[11:49] Rina
Rentt?
[11:50] Rentt
No, it's nothing...
[11:53] Rentt
I'll try them on right away.
[12:01] Rentt
It's easier to move in this than I thought.
[12:04] Rentt
I lose some visibility, but it would be
easy enough to fight a monster or two...
[12:08] Rina
How do you like them?
[12:10] Rentt
They're perfect.
[12:11] Rina
Great!
[12:13] Rina
You look pretty imposing,
too. Almost like a wight!
[12:21] Rentt
I stand out too much...
[12:25] Rentt
I guess that won't work.
[12:26] Rina
Um, how about this?
[12:31] Rentt
What's this?
[12:33] Rina
I thought it might be a bad idea for you to try to
go into town with your face looking like that.
[12:39] Rentt
Thank you...
[12:50] Rina
When I first saw you, I thought
you were a rare or named monster.
[12:55] Rentt
A special type of monster,
huh? You may be right.
[13:08] Rina
You look great!
[13:13] Rentt
I can't get it off.
[13:23] Rentt
No luck...
[13:24] Rina
I'm sorry.
[13:26] Rina
I saw it at a market stall and
couldn't stop thinking about it...
[13:30] Rina
But looking back, it did
seem a little suspicious.
[13:33] Rentt
A market stall? Not a place
introduced by the guild?
[13:37] Rina
It wasn't. The mask was the one thing
I bought at that market stall.
[13:40] Rina
It was shockingly cheap.
[13:43] Rentt
How much?
[13:45] Rina
Three coppers.
[13:47] Rentt
That's three loaves of bread.
[13:50] Rina
Yeah, that's just too cheap.
[13:53] Rina
I did check for curses! And nothing
happened when I touched it...
[14:00] Rentt
A curse that activates
when you put it on, huh?
[14:03] Rentt
I really do have the worst luck...
[14:06] Rentt
Let me try this out.
[14:10] Rina
You can use divinity?!
[14:12] Rentt
Just a little...
[14:15] Rentt
Now that I have more divinity, I might
be able to break a basic curse.
[14:25] Rentt
I'm out of energy...
[14:29] Rina
No luck?
[14:30] Rina
I'm so sorry for bringing you a cursed item!
[14:34] Rentt
It's fine!
[14:36] Rina
But it's all my fault!
[14:39] Rentt
Right now, I need to
hide my face anyway...
[14:44] Rentt
It responded to the divinity.
[14:47] Rentt
I just need to save up money and ask
a powerful cleric to break the curse.
[14:53] Rentt
So don't worry about it...
[14:58] Rentt
I'm sorry.
[15:02] Rentt
What...?
[15:05] Rina
I can tell...
[15:08] Rina
you're not a bad person.
[15:11] Rina
So I'm not scared anymore!
[15:15] Rina
I'm... not scared.
[15:22] Rentt
Thank you.
[15:25] Rentt
But you don't have to force yourself...
until the day when you really are used to me.
[15:32] Rina
It won't take long at all!
It won't! I'm sure of it!
[15:38] Rina
Now Rentt, let's head back to Maalt.
[15:48] Rina
I registered as an adventurer
in the capital city guild.
[15:52] Rina
But there are a lot of famous
adventurers there...
[15:56] Rina
Since there weren't any
jobs for rookies like me,
[15:59] Rina
they recommended I come to Maalt.
[16:01] Rina
There are two labyrinths
close by, for one thing.
[16:03] Rentt
A good choice.
[16:06] Rentt
But I'm surprised you were willing to
come all the way out to the countryside.
[16:10] Rina
I wanted to see the outside
world, and more than anything,
[16:14] Rina
I want to get stronger and become
a full-fledged adventurer fast!
[16:18] Rentt
I understand how you feel. But it's better
for an adventurer to be a coward.
[16:25] Rentt
You've only got one life.
[16:31] Rina
Yes!
[16:32] Rentt
Guys like me are pretty rare.
[16:53] Rina
What's wrong?
[16:55] Rentt
A lot of people here know me.
[16:58] Rentt
They'll know something's
wrong if I show my ID.
[17:02] Rina
Then shall we go in from a different gate?
[17:05] Rentt
Yes. One that's not normally used.
[17:10] Rina
All right. We'll head to the west gate, then.
[17:15] Rentt
Rina, thanks.
[17:20] Rentt
I only made it this far thanks to you.
[17:24] Rina
No, don't act like we're saying goodbye!
[17:27] Rina
I'll help you as much as I can until
we get in town. No, even after that!
[17:32] Rentt
Yes, I do need someone to help me. But...
[17:38] Rentt
I'm a monster. If you help me get
inside, you'll be a criminal.
[17:45] Rentt
You might lose your adventurer's license.
[17:51] Rentt
I don't want to cause trouble for you.
[17:56] Rina
Um...
[17:58] Rina
If I hadn't met you, I'd be dead.
[18:02] Rina
So at least once, I think it's okay
for me to risk my life for you!
[18:08] Rina
Now let's go, Rentt!
[18:14] Soldiers
We're about to close the gate!
[18:16] Soldiers
Next!
[18:19] Soldiers
A man and a woman?
[18:21] Soldiers
Show us your IDs.
[18:24] Soldiers
Adventurers?
[18:26] Soldiers
Rentt Faina the bronze-class, and
Rina Rupaage the iron-class, right?
[18:30] Soldiers
Fine.
[18:35] Soldiers
You've got quite an unusual appearance.
[18:38] Rentt
Do I?
[18:40] Soldiers
Have you seen him before?
[18:43] Soldiers
You ever been to Maalt?
[18:47] Soldiers
Let us see your face!
[18:50] Rina
I'm sorry... His mask is cursed,
and he can't take it off!
[18:55] Soldiers
Cursed?
[18:56] Soldiers
Is that why he talks weird?
[18:58] Rina
That's because he was horribly
injured after fighting a monster..
[19:07] Rina
He bought the mask to hide the
scars, and it was cursed.
[19:11] Rina
Now he can't take it off.
[19:14] Soldiers
That's awful luck.
[19:16] Rentt
Try to pull it off yourself, please.
[19:19] Rina
It's safe to touch!
[19:21] Rina
I've touched it too.
[19:25] Soldiers
Okay!
[19:28] Soldiers
It really won't come off!
[19:30] Rina
We need to donate a lot to the
church to have a cleric remove it.
[19:35] Rina
And we're having trouble
saving up the money...
[19:38] Soldiers
That's rough.
[19:41] Soldiers
Fine! You may pass!
[19:47] Soldiers
Okay, next!
[19:49] Rina
We did it, Rentt!
[19:51] Rentt
It's all... thanks to you.
[19:54] Rentt
Thank you.
[19:56] Rina
I'm just repaying the debt I owe you!
[20:03] Rina
What's the plan now?
[20:07] Rina
Huh? Rentt?
[20:09] Rina
Rentt? Rentt?
[20:12] Rina
Rentt? Where did you go?
[20:15] Rentt
She really is a good kid.
[20:18] Rentt
Her equipment's cheap, but
it's been well-maintained.
[20:21] Rentt
She has a knack for swinging that
sword, and she's pretty smart.
[20:24] Rentt
Brave, too.
[20:25] Rentt
She'll make a fine adventurer. I can tell.
[20:30] Rentt
All the people I know with talent like
that left me behind really fast...
[20:35] Rentt
I'm sorry. When I look a little
more human, I'll come apologize.
[20:45] Rentt
Now, it's hard to manipulate
a kind girl like Rina...
[20:49] Rentt
but I do need a human cooperator.
[20:52] Rentt
Somebody who's got a bit of a past,
and who can be trusted to keep secrets.
[21:21] Rentt
Lorraine...
[21:24] Rentt
Lorraine... wake up.
[21:27] Rentt
I said wake up!
[21:30] Lorraine
Let me sleep just a little more...
[21:34] Rentt
I'll drop a book on your head.
[21:39] Lorraine
Please don't do that...
[21:47] Lorraine
Rentt, you...?!
[21:51] Lorraine
Oh, it's just a mask.
Don't scare me like that.
[22:01] Lorraine
Rentt... What happened?

[00:06] Lorraine
It's useless to try and find him myself...
[00:10] Lorraine
Maybe I'll ask the guild to
send out search parties.
[00:16] Lorraine
This knock...
[00:19] Lorraine
But why isn't he just coming in?
[00:28] Lorraine
Something must've happened.
[00:34] Lorraine
Well, as long as you're alive...
that's all I care about.
[00:40] Rentt
Lorraine...
[00:44] Rentt
Lorraine... wake up.
[00:47] Rentt
I said wake up!
[00:50] Lorraine
Let me sleep just a little more...
[00:53] Rentt
I'll drop a book on your head.
[00:58] Lorraine
Please don't do that...
[01:07] Lorraine
Rentt... What happened?
[02:41] Lorraine
As you know, I study monsters and magic.
SIGN The Undead
Infiltrates the Town
[02:46] Lorraine
But I've never heard of anyone who got eaten
by a dragon and turned into an undead.
[02:50] Lorraine
Is this "dragon" still in the labyrinth?
[02:53] Rentt
I think it's gone...
[02:57] Lorraine
I'm not sure I believe a word
of what you're saying...
[03:01] Lorraine
But I don't think I have a choice,
given the way you look right now.
[03:10] Rentt
Even seeing me like this,
she's completely calm.
[03:13] Rentt
That's Lorraine for you. Academic,
mage, and adventurer.
[03:19] Rentt
Though it feels like she's viewing me as less
of a friend and more of a test subject...
[03:23] Lorraine
Rentt.
[03:25] Lorraine
I know this is a cruel thing
to say, but are you...
[03:30] Lorraine
Are you, now that you're
undead, really Rentt Faina?
[03:38] Rentt
I have the memories and mind of Rentt Faina.
[03:43] Rentt
But I definitely died.
[03:47] Rentt
Are the current me and the
old me the same person?
[03:53] Rentt
I don't know.
[03:54] Lorraine
That answer seems like exactly
what I'd expect Rentt to say.
[03:59] Lorraine
But it's hard to say if you're
really the same person.
[04:03] Lorraine
But we'll set that problem aside for
the moment. I'll think about it later.
[04:07] Lorraine
So, what will you do now?
[04:12] Rentt
I want to continue being an adventurer.
[04:16] Rentt
I'm going to become mythril, no matter what.
[04:21] Rentt
But I can't go to the guild like this.
[04:26] Lorraine
So you want me to accept
jobs for you, right?
[04:30] Lorraine
Oh, you can't use the inn either, can you?
[04:32] Lorraine
Stay here, then.
[04:34] Rentt
I appreciate it, but...
[04:36] Rentt
Are you sure?
[04:38] Lorraine
It doesn't bother me in the slightest.
[04:40] Lorraine
But I'm sure you'd feel awkward if
I offered to let you stay for free.
[04:46] Lorraine
So instead, you can help with my research.
[04:50] Lorraine
No one's ever had the chance
to study a monster that can
[04:53] Lorraine
use existential evolution directly.
[04:55] Rentt
You can't dissect me or anything.
[04:58] Lorraine
What kind of monster do you take me for?
[05:03] Lorraine
Well, I might ask for some
skin and flesh, though.
[05:12] Lorraine
Rentt, I'm back.
[05:15] Rentt
Thanks.
[05:16] Lorraine
Here's the money for the magic stones.
[05:18] Lorraine
And this is the money for the slime liquid.
[05:22] Rentt
You'll pay this much?
[05:24] Lorraine
If I pay you directly, I can
cut out the guild's fee.
[05:29] Lorraine
And the materials you bring in
are always of high quality.
[05:33] Lorraine
They make for great beauty lotions.
[05:36] Rentt
Okay, thanks...
[05:39] Rentt
I'm off to the Three-Pronged Spear.
[05:42] Lorraine
The blacksmith?
[05:43] Rentt
Yeah.
[05:48] Lorraine
Few things in life feel
as nice as a heavy purse.
[06:04] Luca
Welcome!
[06:07] Rentt
Sorry I look so... strange.
[06:11] Luca
No, don't let it bother you at all.
[06:14] Luca
Come closer. May I ask what brings you here?
[06:18] Rentt
I want a new sword.
[06:21] Luca
Let me take a look.
[06:29] Luca
It seems like you've been
taking good care of it,
[06:32] Luca
but it's at the limit of its lifespan.
[06:35] Luca
From the look of the damage, I assume
you either use magic or spirit energy?
[06:39] Rentt
Yes, I use both.
[06:43] Rentt
And divinity, too.
[06:46] Luca
All of them? That's very rare.
[06:50] Luca
You're only the second such
person to ever visit our store.
[06:54] Rentt
If you could keep it a secret...
[06:56] Luca
Of course!
[06:59] Luca
You can't be a blacksmith if you
can't keep your customers' secrets.
[07:05] Rentt
Will this be enough?
[07:11] Luca
Yes. We should be able to
make something quite nice.
[07:14] Luca
Feel free to just pay half for the moment.
[07:16] Luca
You can pay the remainder
when you pick it up.
[07:19] Rentt
That would be wonderful.
[07:21] Luca
I'm afraid, however,
that the owner, Clope,
[07:23] Luca
takes a great deal of pride in his work.
[07:27] Luca
It will take several days to do the work,
[07:29] Luca
and he'll probably want to speak with you
several times throughout the process.
[07:34] Rentt
That's fine...
[07:36] Rentt
When you want to see me,
contact Lorraine, the academic.
[07:45] Luca
Very well.
[07:48] Lorraine
A ghoul... a lesser undead.
[07:51] Lorraine
Strong physical abilities, and capable
of surviving even decapitation.
[07:55] Lorraine
They prefer the meat of
animals, particularly humans.
[07:59] Lorraine
Mostly found in the labyrinths.
[08:01] Lorraine
Some theories say they are
born from human corpses.
[08:05] Lorraine
There are known cases of powerful monsters
turning humans into lesser undead.
[08:11] Lorraine
But in those cases, the victims not
only lost their personalities,
[08:15] Lorraine
they lost any kind of
human will or emotion...
[08:21] Lorraine
Rentt is an extremely special
case. So I can't be sure, yet.
[08:27] Lorraine
But the chance that he's the exact same
being he was in life is extremely low.
[08:34] Lorraine
But...
[08:36] Lorraine
He feels like Rentt to me.
[08:40] Lorraine
He's always...
[08:47] (Flashback) Adventurer
Missy!
[08:49] (Flashback) Lorraine
Yes?
[08:51] (Flashback) Adventurer
You just took a job that'll send
you to Azul Forest, right?
[08:55] (Flashback) Adventurer
Take him with you as your pack bearer, then.
[09:01] (Flashback) Adventurer
Nah, you don't have to pay him.
He's an iron-class. A rookie.
[09:06] (Flashback) Adventurer
I'd like you to help him
gain some experience.
[09:15] (Flashback) Lorraine
The leaves look different...
[09:18] (Flashback) Lorraine
This isn't it, either.
[09:20] (Flashback) Lorraine
Maybe the texts were wrong.
[09:25] Lorraine
The world was such a boring
place to me back then.
[09:30] Lorraine
Even when I became the youngest person
to ever attain the title of Great Doctor,
[09:34] Lorraine
it meant nothing to me.
[09:39] Lorraine
The title of Great Doctor allows one to
register as a silver-class adventurer.
[09:44] Lorraine
I went to the frontier nation of Yarlan
without saying a word to anyone around me.
[09:51] Lorraine
Ostensibly, I was there to
gather some herbs I wanted.
[09:55] Lorraine
But in fact, I just had
nothing better to do.
[10:02] (Flashback) Lorraine
This is it!
[10:03] (Flashback) Lorraine
You need to harvest the root
too, or it's less effective.
[10:07] (Flashback) Lorraine
I need to be careful...
[10:17] (Flashback) Lorraine
Hey, pack bearer!
[10:20] (Flashback) Lorraine
Put this in the pack for me!
[10:31] (Flashback) Lorraine
Hey, you can't just—
[10:36] (Flashback) Lorraine
How did you know how to harvest these?
[10:49] (Flashback) Rentt
Use Fortia Polivus!
[11:01] (Flashback) Rentt
Incredible...
[11:03] (Flashback) Rentt
I guess a silver-rank has magic
on a whole other level...
[11:06] (Flashback) Lorraine
No, it's nothing special...
[11:14] (Flashback) Rentt
Here.
[11:16] (Flashback) Rentt
Was that your first battle?
[11:19] (Flashback) Lorraine
Of course not.
[11:23] (Flashback) Lorraine
But I always had lots of escorts,
or at least people with me...
[11:29] (Flashback) Lorraine
Don't tell me you...
[11:31] (Flashback) Rentt
You didn't seem very experienced
for a silver-class.
[11:35] (Flashback) Rentt
So everyone got worried and
told me to follow you.
[11:40] (Flashback) Lorraine
I see...
[11:43] (Flashback) Lorraine
You know a lot about herbs, don't you?
[11:46] (Flashback) Rentt
Someone once told me that if
I wanted to be an adventurer,
[11:51] (Flashback) Rentt
I should learn to read and write,
[11:55] (Flashback) Rentt
and about plants, monsters,
and anything else I could.
[12:01] (Flashback) Lorraine
Hey, I didn't get your name.
[12:04] (Flashback) Rentt
Oh, I'm Rentt.
[12:07] (Flashback) Rentt
Rentt Faina.
[12:10] (Flashback) Lorraine
Lorraine Vivie.
[12:11] (Flashback) Rentt
Nice to meet you, Lorraine.
[12:15] (Flashback) Lorraine
Hey...
[12:17] (Flashback) Lorraine
Could you teach me, too?
[12:22] (Flashback) Lorraine
About herbs, and how to fight...
[12:25] (Flashback) Lorraine
You knew exactly how to move
through the forest, too.
[12:29] (Flashback) Lorraine
There's some trick to it, right?
[12:31] (Flashback) Rentt
Well, I don't mind...
[12:35] (Flashback) Lorraine
There's so much I want to know!
[12:39] Lorraine
That's how things began
between me and Rentt.
[12:44] Lorraine
He kept working hard every single
day for the next 10 years,
[12:49] Lorraine
aiming to become mythril-class.
[12:51] Lorraine
And I stayed by his side,
doing the research I loved.
[12:56] Lorraine
That was all I wanted.
[12:58] Lorraine
Well, I did change, a little.
[13:02] Lorraine
I can see, looking back, why the
adults were worried about me.
[13:08] Lorraine
I just realized I've been
lax about replying to letters.
[13:12] Lorraine
I don't want another
lecture from the old men.
[13:18] Lorraine
I'll have to ask Rentt where I put them...
[13:24] Rentt
Thanks for making a new sword for me.
[13:27] Clope
Yeah, I'll make sure it's something special.
[13:36] Rentt
Thanks.
[13:40] Luca
Use this until your sword is ready.
[13:47] Clope
It can use magic and spirit energy.
[13:49] Clope
Nothing else.
[13:52] Rentt
Got it.
[13:59] Clope
Looks like he's in a good bit of trouble.
[14:03] Luca
Why doesn't he come to us for help?
[14:06] Luca
Are we that untrustworthy?
[14:09] Clope
I'm guessing that's a curse
he's suffering from.
[14:14] Clope
It's probably a nasty one. One
he thinks might affect our shop.
[14:19] Luca
How awful...
[14:20] Clope
He doesn't like to cause
trouble for other people.
[14:23] Clope
But still, he said some things that
would help us realize who he is, right?
[14:27] Luca
He did. That he could use all types of power,
[14:31] Luca
and that he was staying with Lorraine.
[14:33] Clope
Right?
[14:34] Clope
We can make him tell us
the truth eventually.
[14:38] Clope
It does look like he's going
to keep coming to our shop.
[14:42] Luca
Yes.
[14:46] Lorraine
It's delicious!
[14:47] Lorraine
It's been too long since
you've cooked for me!
[14:49] Rentt
There's more if you want it.
[14:52] Lorraine
Sure.
[14:54] Lorraine
You're not eating?
[14:56] Rentt
I don't get hungry.
[14:59] Lorraine
I see...
[15:01] Lorraine
Good, then.
[15:03] Lorraine
Rentt, while you were out, I
read over all my books again.
[15:09] Lorraine
It's clear that you're different
from an ordinary ghoul.
[15:13] Lorraine
That's probably got something to do with
the reason you can existential evolve...
[15:18] Lorraine
What will you become next?
[15:23] Rentt
I don't know.
[15:25] Rentt
But I want to be as close to human as I can.
[15:29] Lorraine
I guess that's the first step.
[15:31] Rentt
And for that, I'll aim for my
next existential evolution.
[15:36] Lorraine
Then it's back to the
labyrinth for a while.
[15:38] Rentt
Yeah. I'll defeat monsters and get stronger.
[15:45] Rentt
No, I was just thinking that
you really don't change.
[15:56] Lorris
Damn it!
[16:12] Rentt
You okay?
[16:14] Lorris
Y-Yeah!
[16:17] Lorris
Thanks, you saved my life.
[16:20] Lorris
I didn't expect a slime
to attack like that...
[16:24] Lorris
I got a little cut. It's
nothing bad, though.
[16:30] Lorris
Hey!
[16:31] Rentt
Adventurers are expected to be
responsible for themselves.
[16:35] Rentt
If you die in the labyrinth, it's
your fault, no matter what.
[16:38] Rentt
No one is obligated to help
an adventurer in a bad spot.
[16:39] Lorris
Hey, wait!
[16:42] Rentt
There are even awful people out there
[16:43] Rentt
who'll pretend to be in trouble and rob
adventurers who come to help them,
[16:48] Rentt
though they're rare in Maalt.
[16:49] Lorris
You're strong, aren't I?
[16:50] Rentt
I still always try to save
as many as I can, but...
[16:54] Lorris
Please! Let me join your party!
[16:59] Lorris
I need... I need the money.
[17:02] Lorris
As you can see, I just
registered as an adventurer.
[17:06] Lorris
I can't even fight a slime!
[17:08] Rentt
Slimes are strong.
[17:11] Lorris
Th-They are?
[17:12] Rentt
They're hard for swordsmen to fight.
[17:14] Lorris
So you are a veteran, aren't you?
[17:18] Lorris
I'm a chef. I've got a restaurant in Maalt.
[17:22] Lorris
But I'm badly in debt, and I need
to repay 15 gold by next week.
[17:28] Lorris
I figured I've got no choice but to take
a chance and become an adventurer.
[17:32] Lorris
I told everybody that I'd do whatever they
wanted, as long as they let me in their party.
[17:37] Lorris
But nobody would give me a chance.
[17:39] Lorris
So I came here, since they said you
could go into this labyrinth alone.
[17:43] Rentt
That's only if you're
actually kind of strong...
[17:49] Rentt
Sorry, but I'm busy.
[17:57] Rentt
I'd love to help him, but unless he got
really lucky and found a magic item...
[18:04] Rentt
Wait.
[18:07] Rentt
Hey.
[18:09] Rentt
You can come with me after all.
[18:11] Rentt
I assume you can at least carry a pack.
[18:15] Lorris
Wait! You're sure?
[18:18] Rentt
Yeah.
[18:19] Lorris
Hooray!
[18:21] Rentt
I don't know if he's a good guy or not,
[18:25] Rentt
but it won't hurt to try
and help someone out.
[18:27] Lorris
I'm pretty strong, you know.
I'll do whatever you need.
[18:33] Rentt
Sometimes I get really scared...
[18:37] Rentt
Am I really me?
[18:39] (Flashback) Lorraine
Are you, now that you're
undead, really Rentt Faina?
[18:45] Rentt
This isn't good...
[18:54] Lorris
Hey, this is a dead end, right?
[18:57] Rentt
Just follow me.
[19:07] Lorris
Huh? There's a corridor.
[19:09] Lorris
The map says it's a dead end.
[19:12] Rentt
Let's go.
[19:21] Lorris
You're kidding me...
[19:23] Lorris
There's a place like this down here in
the Labyrinth of the Moon's Reflection?
[19:28] Rentt
No dragon, huh?
[19:46] Rentt
I figured there'd be a
magic item or two, but...
[19:50] Lorris
Hey, I found a little gap over here!
[19:58] Lorris
A hidden passage?
[20:00] Lorris
Hey, wouldn't we make a fortune
if we told the guild about this?
[20:06] Lorris
N-No, I mean, of course I know
you're the one who found it!
[20:11] Lorris
I just followed you here.
[20:14] Lorris
There's no way I could take the credit.
[20:18] Rentt
I'm not interested in glory.
[20:22] Rentt
Tell everyone you found it.
[20:25] Rentt
But come on ahead with me.
[20:38] Rentt
Damn it! Another empty room?
[20:42] Rentt
Let's look for secret passages.
[20:44] Rentt
Nobody's come here. There should
be at least a treasure or two.
[20:45] Rentt
Wait!
[20:53] Rentt
Hey!
[20:53] Lorris
It's fine!
[20:55] Lorris
There are no monsters here or anything.
[20:58] Rentt
He can't see it?
[21:00] Lorris
Stop!
[21:05] Lorris
No...
[21:08] Lorris
A teleportation circle...?
[21:10] Lorris
Step on a teleportation circle and
you'll be sent somewhere else.
[21:14] Lorris
Usually a lower floor filled
with strong monsters,
[21:17] Lorris
or some place with deadly traps...
[21:21] Lorris
The smart thing to do
would be to abandon him,
[21:24] Lorris
but if I do that, I'm just
a monster, aren't I?
[21:27] Lorris
Damn it...
[21:39] Lorris
Hey!
[21:47] Lorris
A giant... skeleton...
[21:52] Lorris
A boss room, huh?

It can't be damaged by spirit energy.

Then...
[00:32] Rentt
Magic doesn't work either.
[00:34] Rentt
And the exit's disappeared.
[00:37] Rentt
A boss room...
[00:38] Rentt
And one of the ones where you can't
escape unless you defeat the boss?
[00:46] Rentt
Man... What horrible luck.
[00:54] Rentt
But even so...
[00:56] Rentt
I'm an adventurer, which means I'll
fight to the end without giving up!
[01:01] Rentt

it's an undead, divinity should work on it!

You awake?
SIGN Existential
Evolution
[03:07] Lorris
Yeah...
[03:08] Lorris
Oh, right! There was this huge skeleton...
[03:13] Rentt
The most I can do is patch you up.
[03:17] Lorris
No... thank you.
[03:23] Lorris
You defeated it?
[03:25] Rentt
Yeah.
[03:28] Rentt
I-It's huge!
[03:30] Rentt
If it had a magic stone of this size,
[03:33] Rentt
it must've been an incredibly
powerful monster!
[03:35] Rentt
You're incredible.
[03:37] Rentt
I was lucky.
[03:40] Rentt
You can have it, if you want.
[03:43] Lorris
Are you serious?
[03:45] Rentt
Not without condition, though.
[03:48] Lorris
What do you want?
[03:49] Lorris
I can't see how somebody like me could be
of use to a powerful adventurer like you.
[03:54] Rentt
This is what I look like now.
[03:58] Rentt
A monster got me.
[04:02] Rentt
I can't go into the shops, or the guild.
[04:06] Rentt
I want you to do that for me.
[04:11] Lorris
Sure, even I can do that.
[04:15] Lorris
But is that really all you need?
[04:18] Lorris
The deal seems one-sided in my favor.
[04:21] Rentt
Then one more thing.
[04:25] Rentt
Let me eat and drink at your
restaurant whenever I want.
[04:30] Rentt
For free.
[04:36] Lorris
Are you stupid or something?
[04:43] Lorris
Eat all you want...
[04:45] Lorris
I won't let my restaurant
go bankrupt this time!
[04:48] Lorris
I'll work extra hard!
[04:51] Lorris
Thanks so much, mister!
[04:56] Rentt
Here.
[04:57] Rentt
We're going home.
[04:58] Lorris
O-Okay...
[05:02] Lorris
But how?
[05:07] Rentt
Go over there.
[05:09] Lorris
There's nothing there.
[05:13] Rentt
So he can't see the magic circles.
[05:17] Rentt
It should take you back
to where we came from.
[05:20] Lorris
Gotcha.
[05:21] Lorris
If you say it, I believe it.
[05:31] Rentt
I want to go on ahead...
[05:34] Rentt
But it'll have to be another time.
[05:40] Lorris
This is my restaurant,
the Red Dragon Tavern.
[05:45] Rentt
It's cleaner than I thought.
[05:48] Rentt
Maybe the food's so bad it kills you?
[05:51] Isabelle
Honey, you're safe!
[05:54] Lorris
Ow...
[05:57] Isabelle
Are you hurt?
[05:59] Isabelle
We have to call a doctor!
[06:01] Lorris
Calm down, Isabelle.
[06:03] Lorris
I'm fine.
[06:04] Lorris
I got a little hurt, but he patched me up.
[06:08] Isabelle
Oh, how silly of me.
[06:11] Isabelle
He saved my life.
[06:14] Isabelle
Oh, also...
[06:16] Isabelle
Just look at this!
[06:19] Isabelle
Th-That's...
[06:20] Lorris
Amazing, huh? He gave it to me!
[06:23] Isabelle
No!
[06:24] Isabelle
If you get tricked again... we
don't have anything left to pay...
[06:31] Lorris
Isabelle, it's true.
[06:33] Lorris
He may not look it, but
he's actually a great guy.
[06:36] Lorris
He heard about my debt
and decided to help me.
[06:41] Lorris
Of course, not for free.
[06:43] Lorris
I'm going to be helping him from now on.
[06:46] Isabelle
Will you be doing something dangerous again?
[06:48] Lorris
It'll be fine. Just errands.
[06:53] Lorris
And I promised he can eat here for free.
[06:57] Isabelle
But that's barely anything...
[07:00] Rentt
It's true.
[07:03] Isabelle
Then...
[07:04] Lorris
Yeah.
[07:06] Lorris
I know I worried you, but it's okay now.
[07:11] Lorris
Oh, I never did introduce myself.
[07:14] Lorris
I'm Lorris. Lorris Cariello.
[07:18] Lorris
And this is...
[07:19] Isabelle
Isabelle.
[07:21] Isabelle
Thank you so much.
[07:24] Rentt
Don't worry about it.
[07:26] Rentt
Farewell.
[07:28] Lorris
You're leaving already, mister?
[07:31] Lorris
You saved my life. At
least tell me your name!
[07:38] Rentt
Can you promise you won't tell anybody?
[07:43] Lorris
Yeah.
[07:44] Lorris
I'll keep it a secret. And I'll
keep calling you "mister."
[07:50] Rentt
Rentt.
[07:52] Lorris
Thanks, Mister.
[07:55] Lorris
Come for a meal any time you like!
We'll be happy to have you!
[08:05] Rentt
It's a shame...
[08:07] Rentt
If he was a liar...
[08:09] Rentt
Just a villain with no family...
[08:15] Rentt
That would've been so much better.
[08:23] Rentt
I'd rather test it on someone evil.
[08:25] Rentt
That's why I didn't ask his name.
[08:29] Rentt
It's such a shame...
[08:35] Rentt
Lorraine...
[08:38] Rentt
No... What am I...?
[08:45] Rentt
Lorraine...
[08:53] Lorraine
You're a bit late.
[08:55] Lorraine
How was the labyrinth?
Did you see the dragon?
[08:59] Rentt
No...
[09:00] Lorraine
Oh, where did you put the
letters I got from the empire?
[09:04] Lorraine
I need to answer them,
[09:06] Lorraine
or the old men are gonna come
and break down my door.
[09:10] Lorraine
What's wrong?
[09:12] Lorraine
Was there a problem?
[09:13] Lorraine
You don't sound so good.
[09:16] Rentt
That's not true.
[09:18] Rentt
I'm happy...
[09:21] Lorraine
Oh? Did something good happen?
[09:27] Lorraine
R-Rentt?
[09:29] Lorraine
What happened?
[09:30] Lorraine
Are you drunk?
[09:32] Lorraine
No, I guess an undead can't get drunk.
[09:35] Rentt
Lorraine, I...
[09:38] Lorraine
Y-Yeah? What?
[09:42] Lorraine
Rentt...
[09:52] Lorraine
R-Rentt!
[09:55] Lorraine
You...
[10:02] Rentt
D-Delicious!
[10:05] Lorraine
Rentt... are you still in there?
[10:10] Lorraine
Rentt!
[10:18] Lorraine
Good... you're still there, then.
[10:22] Lorraine
In that case...
[10:31] Lorraine
You're alive, right?
[10:33] Lorraine
For now, sleep.
[10:35] Lorraine
I'll hear your apology when you wake up.
[10:39] Lorraine
If you're going to grab me like
that, do it when you're sober.
[10:43] Lorraine
You can devour me any time you like.
[10:54] Rentt
What was I...?
[10:56] Lorraine
Are you awake, Rentt?
[10:59] Rentt
Yeah. My head...
[11:04] Rentt
I was in the labyrinth...
[11:06] Lorraine
Do you feel like something
strange is in control of you?
[11:10] Lorraine
Or giving you strange impulses?
[11:17] Lorraine
Very good, then.
[11:19] Rentt
Lorraine, I'm sorry.
[11:22] Lorraine
I'll accept your apology.
[11:24] Lorraine
But there's nothing to worry about.
[11:26] Lorraine
It was an unpleasant accident.
[11:28] Lorraine
That's all.
[11:29] Rentt
But that's not...
[11:32] Lorraine
I'm more interested in
how much you remember.
[11:35] Rentt
I remember attacking you.
[11:39] Rentt
No... I met a man in the labyrinth,
and he looked delicious to me...
[11:45] Rentt
I started going crazy.
[11:48] Rentt
And you looked so delicious,
I couldn't help myself...
[11:52] Lorraine
I expected this, to a degree.
[11:55] Rentt
You did?
[11:56] Lorraine
Yes.
[11:57] Lorraine
Ghouls prefer the flesh and blood of humans.
[12:00] Lorraine
More importantly, is your body okay?
[12:04] Lorraine
I almost never hold back.
[12:07] Rentt
It seems okay.
[12:09] Lorraine
I'm glad.
[12:10] Lorraine
But you took damage, I'm sure.
[12:12] Lorraine
So rest quietly.
[12:15] Lorraine
I will too.
[12:18] Rentt
Lorraine...
[12:20] Rentt
Let me see it.
[12:26] Lorraine
I'd just sold all my potions
to the magical pharmacy.
[12:30] Lorraine
Don't worry.
[12:31] Lorraine
Once I get the ingredients in the
morning, I'll make one right away.
[12:36] Rentt
Let me take care of it.
[12:40] Lorraine
You can use that much divinity?
[12:43] Rentt
Yeah.
[12:44] Rentt
I should be able to do basic healing.
[12:47] Lorraine
I've never been healed by divinity before.
[12:50] Lorraine
It feels nice. It's warm.
[12:55] Rentt
Well?
[12:57] Lorraine
Yeah, the pain's gone.
[13:01] Lorraine
This is amazing. It's all better.
[13:04] Rentt
Not yet.
[13:15] Lorraine
I guess I can't pretend to
be damaged goods anymore.
[13:19] Lorraine
Don't worry about it.
[13:23] Lorraine
You...
[13:29] Lorraine
At this point, you might be able
to pass it off as old wounds.
[13:34] Rentt
What about my face?
[13:36] Rentt
The mask has changed form!
[13:38] Lorraine
What, you didn't notice?
[13:41] Rentt
When did that happen?
[13:43] Rentt
I'll need to hide this...
[13:48] Lorraine
That mask isn't just cursed, I don't think.
[13:53] Lorraine
Is it responding to your desires?
[13:55] Rentt
Let me try.
[14:01] Lorraine
That's rare.
[14:03] Lorraine
I've heard of magical swords
with wills of their own.
[14:08] Lorraine
If you can control it,
maybe you can take it off?
[14:12] Rentt
I see...
[14:13] Rentt
Come off... Come off!
[14:17] Lorraine
Can I try pulling on it?
[14:19] Rentt
Yes.
[14:25] Lorraine
No luck.
[14:27] Lorraine
Well, that's not entirely great.
[14:29] Lorraine
Though, your face is still like an undead's.
You'll need to hide it for a while anyway.
[14:35] Rentt
Yeah.
[14:36] Rentt
I'll stay like this for a while.
[14:38] Lorraine
Your words are a lot clearer now, too.
[14:41] Rentt
Yeah, it's much easier to talk.
[14:44] Rentt
Did I existential evolve?
[14:47] Lorraine
I would assume so.
[14:50] Rentt
I defeated a strong monster, yes, but...
[14:53] Rentt
Last time, I evolved right
after I defeated the monster.
[15:01] Lorraine
Perhaps it was because you
fed on my blood and flesh?
[15:07] Lorraine
It's not that strange an idea.
[15:10] Lorraine
You're not a ghoul anymore.
You're closer to a ghast.
[15:14] Rentt
A ghast?
[15:16] Rentt
I've almost never seen one... but
they're servants of vampires, right?
[15:19] Lorraine
Yes.
[15:20] Lorraine
They're weaker than even a lesser vampire.
[15:23] Lorraine
And that's what you look like right now.
[15:25] Rentt
But why a ghast?
[15:27] Lorraine
Even among us academics,
[15:30] Lorraine
existential evolution is just like
the origins of the labyrinth itself.
[15:32] Lorraine
A complete mystery.
[15:35] Lorraine
But...
[15:37] Lorraine
Rentt, would you like to hear my hypothesis?
[15:41] Rentt
Yes, please, tell me!
[15:44] Lorraine
All right, I'll tell you.
[15:46] Lorraine
Of course, I would've told
you even if you'd refused.
[15:50] Lorraine
Don't fall asleep.
[15:53] Lorraine
Now then, where to begin...
[15:57] Lorraine
I didn't see it, but you were
a skeleton at first, right?
[16:01] Rentt
Yeah, that was... interesting.
[16:04] Lorraine
And then you became a ghoul.
[16:06] Rentt
Yes.
[16:08] Lorraine
Don't you think it's strange that
you'd go from a skeleton to a ghoul?
[16:14] Lorraine
Existential evolution is when a monster
transforms into a more powerful being.
[16:19] Lorraine
Well, that's the current definition,
regardless of what the exact truth is.
[16:23] Rentt
That's right.
[16:24] Lorraine
So is a ghoul the only monster
superior to a skeleton?
[16:27] Rentt
Well, there's a skeleton soldier, a skeleton
knight... there's a lot of things.
[16:32] Lorraine
There are reports of skeletons
becoming ghouls, yes.
[16:37] Lorraine
But as for whether that's a coincidence,
or if there's some reason...
[16:43] Lorraine
We know nothing!
[16:45] Lorraine
But there's one thing we can infer.
[16:50] Lorraine
The monster is evolving into
the form it wishes to take.
[16:57] Lorraine
You kept saying you wanted
to become more human, didn't you?
[17:03] Rentt
That's right.
[17:05] Rentt
But then couldn't I have become
a vampire instead of a ghast?
[17:09] Rentt
A vampire looks more human.
[17:13] Lorraine
It's probably like the adventurer's guild.
[17:16] Lorraine
You can't jump from Iron to Gold, can you?
[17:19] Lorraine
There must be conditions and
aptitudes that you need to meet.
[17:23] Rentt
I see!
[17:24] Lorraine
Experiments using smaller monsters
[17:26] Lorraine
have shown they existential evolve into
a form adapted to their environment.
[17:30] Lorraine
In a volcanic area, to a form
with high fire affinity,
[17:33] Lorraine
near water, to a form with
high water affinity.
[17:38] Lorraine
It's possible that this evolution was a
passive reaction to their environment.
[17:42] Lorraine
But if it happened in response
to the monster's will...?
[17:46] Lorraine
There are some leaps of logic there, but it
seems to me like you have that potential.
[17:51] Rentt
Which means if I work hard enough,
I might become a vampire someday?
[17:57] Rentt
And someday... go back to being human?
[18:02] Lorraine
The former I can say is a possibility.
[18:05] Lorraine
The latter, I have no idea.
[18:07] Rentt
Of course.
[18:09] Lorraine
I imagine that any further
existential evolutions
[18:11] Lorraine
will involve more than
just defeating monsters.
[18:16] Rentt
I see...
[18:18] Rentt
Just like how I became a ghast by
ingesting your flesh and blood,
[18:22] Rentt
there must be some condition
for becoming a vampire.
[18:25] Lorraine
Yeah. I think that's the case.
[18:28] Rentt
There's so much we don't know.
[18:30] Lorraine
What did you expect?
[18:31] Lorraine
Even what I just said is just a hypothesis.
[18:34] Lorraine
You could even call it a fantasy.
[18:37] Lorraine
It's a long road ahead, either way.
[18:40] Lorraine
I'll help you as best I can.
[18:43] Rentt
Thank you.
[18:45] Lorraine
Don't worry about it.
[18:51] Lorraine
Now, let me start checking things.
[18:54] Lorraine
Start by taking off your clothes.
[18:56] Lorraine
I'm going to use a magic item to take
pictures of every inch of your body for my records.
[19:00] Lorraine
And let me cut off part of your body.
[19:02] Rentt
C-Cut off?
[19:03] Lorraine
Yeah. I want to see if you feel pain.
[19:05] Rentt
D-Dunno...
[19:06] Lorraine
I can prepare an anesthetic,
but will it work on you?
[19:09] Lorraine
Then let's test that and a
bunch of other medical stuff!
[19:12] Lorraine
We need to test your
sleep and appetite, too.
[19:15] Lorraine
Find out for me if you can
eat normal food later.
[19:18] Lorraine
And if you're closer to a vampire now...
[19:21] Lorraine
Well, we can start our experiments tomorrow.
[19:24] Lorraine
You must be tired today.
[19:29] Lorraine
I do have a little bit of common
sense, you know. Once in a while.
[19:34] Rentt
Once in a while...
[19:36] Rentt
That's true. Once in a while.
[19:51] Rentt
I feel fine. Good, actually.
[19:55] Rentt
That strange impulse from yesterday is gone.
[20:01] Rentt
I can't go into the labyrinth
with my sword like this.
[20:04] Rentt
Clope will be so mad...
[20:07] Clope
Hey.
[20:09] Clope
What is this?
[20:12] Rentt
Your... sword.
[20:17] Clope
You ruined it.
[20:19] Clope
The materials are useless now.
[20:22] Clope
I can't repair this.
[20:24] Rentt
I'm sorry... I imbued it with divinity.
[20:28] Clope
That would explain the damage, but...
[20:31] Clope
There are no enemies in the Labyrinth of the
Moon's Reflection that call for divinity.
[20:35] Rentt
I met a giant skeleton.
[20:37] Clope
No way in hell did you—
[20:38] Clope
No, you wouldn't lie about that.
[20:43] Clope
But where?
[20:45] Rentt
I found an unexplored area.
[20:46] Clope
Ren—
[20:50] Clope
No... you.
[20:51] Clope
Is that... true?
[20:57] Clope
An unexplored area.
[20:59] Clope
So that explains it.
[21:02] Clope
I wondered why you looked so
weird when you came here.
[21:06] Clope
So, did you get to explore it?
[21:08] Rentt
Not yet.
[21:10] Rentt
So I hate to ask, but I'd like that
sword I asked for as soon as possible.
[21:14] Clope
I assume so.
[21:16] Clope
You can't let the others explore it first.
[21:20] Clope
But the sword you asked for isn't ready yet.
[21:25] Clope
So I'll lend you another.
[21:27] Rentt
Really?
[21:29] Clope
Yeah.
[21:30] Clope
I'll give you something a little better.
[21:34] Clope
You're one of our best customers, after all.
[21:37] Rentt
Yeah, I should've known I wouldn't fool him.
[21:41] Rentt
Well, he lent me a new sword.
[21:43] Rentt
I can't wait to get done in the labyrinth
and do another existential evolution.
[21:46] Lorris
Hey, give me all those veggies. All of them!
[21:49] Isabelle
Can you come down a little
on the price of that meat?
[21:52] Merchant
I can't say no to Isabelle!
[21:54] Merchant
Okay, take the meat in the back, too!
[21:56] Isabelle
Hooray!
[21:57] Lorris
The Red Dragon Tavern opens for lunch today!
[22:00] Lorris
Come and see us, everyone!
[22:01] Crowd
I definitely will!
[22:02] Lorris
Yeah, we'll be waiting for you!

[00:04] Lorraine
A surprising amount of the things
you see in nature are poisonous.
[00:10] Lorraine
One might simply make you sick to
your stomach, or slightly numb...
[00:15] Lorraine
But combining them together
and refining the result
[00:19] Lorraine
will make a poison that can
kill even a Red Grizzly.
[00:22] Rentt
Alchemy's scary...
[00:26] Rentt
I know I said I'd help with
your experiments, but...
[00:31] Rentt
Isn't that going to kill me?
[02:09] Lorraine
Well? Need an antidote spell?
[02:12] Rentt
I'm fine. It just tasted terrible.
[02:14] Lorraine
Undead
Adventurer
[02:17] Lorraine
You may be the first person in history
who was able to drink that poison
[02:20] Lorraine
and say how it tastes, Rentt.
[02:24] Lorraine
As I thought, no poison will work on you.
[02:28] Lorraine
But for some reason, healing
herbs and potions do.
[02:34] Lorraine
Your body's quite handy.
[02:38] Lorraine
Wait, do you still not feel the
need for sleep, even as a ghast?
[02:44] Rentt
I don't.
[02:45] Rentt
I barely need to sleep at all.
[02:47] Lorraine
I'm jealous.
[02:49] Lorraine
What about your appetite?
[02:52] Rentt
It's small, but I do feel a desire
for human flesh and blood.
[03:00] Rentt
More poison?
[03:02] Lorraine
Open it.
[03:13] Rentt
Blood!
[03:15] C
It's my blood.
[03:17] C
I've cast preservation magic on the vial.
[03:20] C
You may feel reluctant
to ingest human blood,
[03:24] C
but you should ingest it at regular
intervals to keep yourself from losing control.
[03:30] Rentt
All right.
[03:38] Rentt
It's delicious!
[03:40] Lorraine
You only need one drop?
[03:42] Rentt
That's plenty. The thirst is gone.
[03:45] Rentt
I'll make it last.
[03:51] Rentt
I'm going to head out.
[03:53] Rentt
You get some rest, Lorraine.
[03:56] Lorraine
The labyrinth?
[03:57] Rentt
I'm heading to the labyrinth,
yes, but first, the guild.
[04:00] Lorraine
The guild?
[04:02] Rentt
I'm going to take a job.
[04:04] Lorraine
You're going to need to show Rentt Faina's
[04:06] Lorraine
adventurer ID if you want
a job from the guild.
[04:09] Lorraine
If you bring it out looking like that,
the whole guild will be in an uproar.
[04:12] Rentt
You think?
[04:14] Rentt
Sure, I look different.
[04:18] Rentt
But I'm just a Bronze-class adventurer.
[04:21] Rentt
Nobody will care.
[04:25] Lorraine
Listen, Rentt. You're one of
many Bronze adventurers, yes.
[04:30] Lorraine
But the guild really liked you.
[04:33] Lorraine
You did everything from
helping out new adventurers
[04:37] Lorraine
to taking jobs nobody else would take.
[04:39] Rentt
Those were just random little jobs.
[04:41] Lorraine
Don't be so hard on yourself.
[04:44] Lorraine
There was talk of recruiting
you to work for the guild.
[04:48] Rentt
No way.
[04:49] Rentt
I don't know anything about that.
[04:51] Rentt
Maybe if I were a really talented
adventurer, but I'm not...
[04:56] Lorraine
They probably found it hard
to bring the subject up,
[05:00] Lorraine
since you showed no signs of retiring.
[05:02] Rentt
How do you know?
[05:04] Lorraine
Even I know some people at the guild.
[05:08] Rentt
I'm grateful they thought that.
[05:11] Rentt
But I'm not going to retire,
or work at the guild.
[05:16] Lorraine
That's what we all assumed.
[05:18] Lorraine
Now, let's think about this.
[05:20] Lorraine
You need to pass a test to go up a rank.
[05:23] Lorraine
And to take that test, you
need to prove yourself.
[05:25] Lorraine
You need to be the one taking the quests.
[05:31] Lorraine
But if the guild knows that
Rentt Faina is back...
[05:37] Lorraine
Rentt!
[05:39] Lorraine
Just be somebody else!
[05:54] Rentt
It feels like it's been a long time.
[06:00] Rentt
Oh, there's Sheila!
[06:02] Rentt
Looks like she's doing well.
[06:05] Sheila
Good morning. Is it your first time here?
[06:11] Rentt
I want to register as an adventurer.
[06:13] Sheila
All right. You'll need to do some paperwork.
[06:18] Sheila
I can fill out all of it except your name.
[06:21] Rentt
I know how to read and write.
[06:23] Sheila
My apologies.
[06:25] Sheila
You can leave any parts that
are too hard for you blank.
[06:28] Sheila
But if you put down any skills
you have or magic you can use,
[06:31] Sheila
we'll be able to give you more jobs.
[06:34] Rentt
The last time I filled this
out was 10 years ago.
[06:37] Rentt
Back then, I didn't even know
what counted as a "skill,"
[06:41] Rentt
and I could only write down my name and age.
[06:44] Rentt
Not like now.
[06:46] Rentt
But my goal hasn't changed
at all since then.
[06:52] (Flashback) Lorraine
Rentt, why not register as an
adventurer under another name?
[06:56] (Flashback) Rentt
I can't do that! Using two different
names is against the guild rules!
[07:00] (Flashback) Lorraine
They'll never know.
[07:03] (Flashback) Lorraine
And even if they do find out,
it won't be a big deal.
[07:06] (Flashback) Lorraine
Everyone knows Rentt Faina, and they'd have
[07:09] (Flashback) Lorraine
no end of questions about
how you ended up that way.
[07:12] (Flashback) Lorraine
But nobody will ask questions
about a wandering adventurer,
[07:16] (Flashback) Lorraine
no matter how strange they look.
[07:19] (Flashback) Rentt
True.
[07:21] (Flashback) Lorraine
Well, you'll lose what
accomplishments Rentt Faina had,
[07:25] (Flashback) Lorraine
and you'll have to start over from Iron.
[07:30] (Flashback) Rentt
I don't mind.
[07:32] (Flashback) Rentt
My goal is...
[07:34] (Flashback) Rentt
to become a Mythril-class
adventurer someday. That's all.
[07:39] Shiela
Thank you.
[07:43] Shiela
Your name is... Rentt Vivie, correct?
[07:47] Rentt
What's wrong?
[07:48] Sheila
Nothing, just... an adventurer named
Rentt went missing the other day.
[07:55] Rentt
She was worried? About somebody like me?
[07:58] Rentt
Well, we did know each
other for a long time.
[08:00] Sheila
I'm sorry. It just surprised
me that you had the same name.
[08:05] Rentt
I see.
[08:06] Rentt
By the way, was that Rentt Faina?
[08:10] Sheila
Yes, but how did you know?
[08:13] Rentt
Lorraine told me.
[08:16] Sheila
Are you a relative of hers?
[08:20] Rentt
Yes. She's letting me stay with her.
[08:23] Sheila
I'd heard that an unusual-looking man
was seen going in and out of her home.
[08:27] Sheila
So that was you, huh?
[08:30] Rentt
There were rumors about me, huh?
[08:33] Sheila
I was so sure it was Rentt Faina.
[08:37] Sheila
He seemed so close to her.
[08:43] Sheila
All right. This paperwork looks fine.
[08:46] Sheila
Give me a minute to finish this up.
[08:51] Rentt
I'm glad I said I was a relative.
[08:54] Rentt
Lorraine is a young woman.
[08:56] Rentt
I need to make sure there aren't
weird rumors about her.
[08:59] Rentt
The name "Rentt" is a common
one in every country.
[09:04] Rentt
And it's not unusual for an adventurer
to look a little strange.
[09:08] Rentt
Now I can start over!
[09:12] Sheila
Rentt Vivie!
[09:13] Rentt
Oh, yes?
[09:15] Sheila
You are now an Iron-class adventurer.
[09:18] Sheila
Do your best!
[09:20] Rentt
Thank you.
[09:22] Sheila
Just... don't get yourself killed.
[09:26] Rentt
Thanks.
[09:42] Rentt
Goblins?
[09:45] Laura
Ryze, behind you!
[09:47] Rentt
Still young...
[09:48] Rentt
They sound like children.
[09:59] Rentt
A swordsman and a healer.
[10:02] Rentt
Given their age, they must be new.
[10:08] Ryze
Laura!
[10:09] Laura
Right!
[10:14] Rentt
They seem to be working well together.
[10:17] Rentt
They'll probably be fine.
[10:19] Rentt
I used to always talk to the
new kids, show them around...
[10:23] Rentt
But I'd just scare them, looking like this.
[10:31] Rentt
Now, then... time to hurry before the
other adventurers find that place.
[10:45] Rentt
Information about the labyrinth
is valuable, and worth money.
[10:48] Rentt
Especially information about
newly discovered areas.
[10:53] Rentt
If I can explore this new area
and report it to the guild,
[10:57] Rentt
it'll be a huge accomplishment.
[11:00] Rentt
For the Iron-class
adventurer, Rentt Vivie.
[11:04] Rentt
Now, let's see what's waiting for me...
[11:34] Rentt
That's not an undead...
[11:38] Rentt
Somebody was living here?
Inside the labyrinth?
[11:43] Woman
What are you doing?
[11:54] Woman
I'll ask you one more time.
[11:56] Woman
What are you doing?
[12:01] Rentt
Oh no... this woman's bad news!
[12:04] Rentt
I was searching to see if
there was anything here.
[12:08] Rentt
I'm an adventurer.
[12:10] Woman
Searching, you say?
[12:13] Woman
Searching...
[12:15] Woman
For something to steal, correct?
[12:19] Woman
Does that mean you're
prepared to die down here?
[12:24] Woman
There are some things even I can't forgive.
[12:27] Woman
I don't want this place disturbed.
[12:32] Woman
So... disappear, please.
[13:02] Woman
Your body...
[13:04] Rentt
Does it offend you?
[13:07] Rentt
I didn't end up like this
because I wanted to.
[13:15] Woman
I assume so.
[13:17] Woman
But at least it explains how you got here.
[13:23] Woman
It seems I've misunderstood you.
[13:26] Woman
My apologies.
[13:29] Woman
Oh, you're upset, aren't you?
[13:31] Woman
I burnt your clothes.
[13:34] Rentt
No, you almost killed me!
[13:37] Woman
In exchange...
[13:45] Woman
I'll offer you this.
[13:48] Woman
It's well-made, and worth more
than what you were wearing.
[13:54] Rentt
She said she "misunderstood" me, right?
[13:56] Rentt
Does that mean she doesn't
feel like killing me anymore?
[14:03] Woman
I'm sure you understand that
this place is special.
[14:07] Woman
Would you be willing to keep it a secret?
[14:12] Woman
This room is a special place to me.
[14:17] Rentt
You mean don't tell the guild?
[14:19] Woman
Yes, that's correct.
[14:22] Woman
Though, actually, no one can enter
this place unless you're with them.
[14:28] Woman
Oh, if you're an adventurer, you wouldn't
want to go home empty-handed, would you?
[14:33] Woman
I'll give you this Acacia Map instead.
[14:36] Woman
I'm sure it will be of use to you.
[14:46] Rentt
A map?
[14:48] Woman
It's a magic item that will automatically record
the spaces through which its owner has traveled.
[14:55] Woman
Our trade is now complete, yes?
[15:00] Woman
I'll return you to the entrance, then.
[15:04] Woman
I wish you good health... Though perhaps
that's not the best thing to say to you.
[15:19] Lorraine
Are you under some kind of curse?
[15:22] Lorraine
The strangest things keep
happening to you...
[15:25] Rentt
I'm not running into them
because I want to...
[15:28] Lorraine
And that's why I said it was a curse.
[15:31] Lorraine
Well, an adventurer's job is
going to see strange things.
[15:36] Lorraine
Anyway, this magic item...
it doesn't seem cursed.
[15:40] Lorraine
It seems safe to use.
[15:42] Rentt
Any idea how to use it?
[15:45] Lorraine
It didn't react to my magic at all.
[15:48] Lorraine
You try it, Rentt.
[15:58] Rentt
This is the Labyrinth of
the Moon's Reflection.
[16:01] Rentt
It really is a map.
[16:03] Lorraine
Amazing.
[16:05] Lorraine
What's this mark?
[16:08] Rentt
I'm not sure...
[16:12] Lorraine
"Ryze" and "Laura"...
[16:16] Lorraine
Those seem to be names, but what is this?
[16:19] Rentt
A pair of rookie adventurers.
[16:21] Rentt
I met them in the labyrinth.
[16:23] Lorraine
Then it's showing you the names of the people
in the labyrinth, as well as their positions?
[16:28] Rentt
That's handy.
[16:30] Lorraine
Rentt, this is incredible!
[16:33] Lorraine
It's a potential national treasure!
[16:35] Lorraine
I can't believe this...
[16:37] Lorraine
Can you bring up maps for
the other labyrinths?
[16:39] Rentt
I'm not sure...
[16:41] Rentt
Other labyrinths...
[16:43] Rentt
The Labyrinth of the New Moon, maybe?
[16:50] Lorraine
It changed!
[16:51] Rentt
But it's not complete.
[16:54] Lorraine
It's not?
[16:55] Rentt
It's not.
[16:56] Rentt
Actually, she said it would record the
spaces in the labyrinth that I'd traveled.
[17:03] Lorraine
So it won't display any areas that its
owner, that is, you, haven't been to?
[17:09] Rentt
Hey, can you take a look at this robe, too?
[17:13] Rentt
I don't want another curse.
[17:15] Lorraine
It's fine.
[17:17] Lorraine
You already have it equipped.
[17:19] Lorraine
If it was cursed, you'd know by now.
[17:25] Lorraine
From the look of it, it's of good quality.
[17:28] Rentt
It is?
[17:29] Lorraine
Yes. It has extremely
strong magic resistance,
[17:33] Lorraine
and no blade could pierce it.
[17:35] Lorraine
You can safely assume it's far
stronger than regular armor.
[17:39] Rentt
Maybe I got a better deal
out of this than I thought.
[17:42] Lorraine
Rentt, that's not what you
need to be thinking about.
[17:46] Lorraine
Who is this woman who almost killed you?
[17:52] Rentt
I don't know.
[17:54] Rentt
She was incredibly powerful.
[17:57] Rentt
But at my level of strength, all I can say
is that she's stronger than a Gold-class.
[18:04] Lorraine
I see.
[18:05] Lorraine
I'm curious about the room you went to, too.
[18:09] Lorraine
It means somebody has the ability to make
living spaces within the labyrinth.
[18:14] Rentt
I'm going back tomorrow.
[18:16] Lorraine
Even though you were almost killed?
[18:18] Lorraine
That's brave.
[18:20] Rentt
She didn't tell me to never come back.
[18:22] Rentt
She just told me not to tell the guild.
[18:25] Lorraine
You don't know if that's how she sees it.
[18:27] Lorraine
From what you said, she clearly
wants to be left alone.
[18:34] Rentt
Well, I'll go talk to her, at least.
[18:42] Rentt
I'm cursed, huh?
[18:48] Rentt
What Lorraine said was right.
[18:52] Rentt
On the day I found that new area in the
Labyrinth of the Moon's Reflection...
[18:57] Rentt
I met the dragon and became undead.
[19:00] Rentt
I still can't get this cursed mask off.
[19:03] Rentt
Most people would take pity on me.
[19:07] Rentt
But... I don't feel that way at all.
[19:13] Rentt
I've fought powerful enemies, encountered
many mysteries... and gotten stronger.
[19:19] Rentt
That's just what a Mythril-class
adventurer does!
[19:34] Rentt
It's not here.
[19:36] Rentt
The entrance is gone?
[19:47] Rentt
So she doesn't want me coming back?
[19:52] Rentt
No, she doesn't want me
coming back right now.
[19:58] Sheila
Welcome back.
[20:00] Sheila
The client was very happy.
[20:03] Young Adventurer
I'm glad to hear that.
[20:05] Young Adventurer
Hey, have you heard anything about Rentt?
[20:09] Sheila
Nothing, yet.
[20:11] Young Adventurer
I see...
[20:12] Young Adventurer
Well, maybe he went off to escort
some traveler or something, right?
[20:16] Young Adventurer
Tell me if you ever hear something.
[20:18] Sheila
Okay.
[20:20] Sheila
Rentt, everyone is worried about you.
[20:25] Sheila
A lot of people learned how
to be an adventurer from you.
[20:31] Sheila
I only learned how to be a real
guild employee thanks to you...
[20:37] (Flashback) Rentt
I'm "nice"?
[20:39] (Flashback) Sheila
Yes.
[20:40] (Flashback) Rentt
I've never seen myself that way...
[20:42] (Flashback) Rentt
But well, I'll do anything if
it helps me become Mythril.
[20:50] Rentt
Excuse me...
[20:52] Sheila
I'm sorry!
[20:55] Sheila
I was just thinking about something,
and you startled me...
[20:58] Rentt
That's fine... actually...
[21:01] Rentt
I want to take this job.
[21:04] Sheila
Three bodies' worth of orc flesh?
[21:08] Sheila
The deadline's not for a while, but...
[21:11] Sheila
Orcs are quite strong. And you'll
need to fight three of them.
[21:16] Sheila
I can't recommend that for
an Iron-class adventurer.
[21:19] Rentt
I know how strong orcs are.
[21:22] Rentt
You'd need to be an average Bronze-class,
no, a fairly strong one.
[21:27] Sheila
Then...
[21:28] Rentt
Don't worry. I've defeated
orcs before, several times.
[21:33] Sheila
I see.
[21:35] Sheila
If you've already fought them, then...
[21:38] Sheila
The guild will entrust you,
Rentt Vivie, with this job.
[21:44] Rentt
I accept.
[21:45] Sheila
Just don't do anything risky, okay?
[21:48] Sheila
If it gets dangerous, then run away.
[21:50] Sheila
Got it?
[21:52] Rentt
Yes. I've only got one life, after all.
[21:55] Rentt
I understand that.
[21:57] Rentt
No...
[22:00] Rentt
I think I understand that
better than anyone.

[00:01] (Flashback) Lorraine
So what do we do?
[00:03] (Flashback) Lorraine
You need to pass an exam to raise your rank.
[00:06] (Flashback) Lorraine
And before that, you need to prove yourself.
[00:09] (Flashback) Lorraine
And so you'll need to take jobs yourself.
[00:14] (Flashback) Lorraine
But if they know Rentt Faina is
back in town, the guild will...
[00:20] (Flashback) Lorraine
Rentt, why not register as an
adventurer under another name?
[00:25] (Flashback) Rentt
I can't do that! Using two different
names is against the guild rules!
[00:29] (Flashback) Lorraine
They'll never know.
[00:31] (Flashback) Lorraine
And even if they do find out,
it won't be a big deal.
[00:35] (Flashback) Lorraine
Everyone knows Rentt Faina, and they'd have
[00:37] (Flashback) Lorraine
no end of questions about
how you ended up that way.
[00:41] (Flashback) Lorraine
But nobody will ask questions
about a wandering adventurer,
[00:45] (Flashback) Lorraine
no matter how strange they look.
[00:48] (Flashback) Rentt
True.
[00:50] (Flashback) Lorraine
Well, you'll lose what
accomplishments Rentt Faina had,
[00:53] (Flashback) Lorraine
and you'll have to start over from Iron.
[00:59] (Flashback) Rentt
I don't mind.
[01:01] (Flashback) Rentt
My goal is...
[01:03] (Flashback) Rentt
to become a Mythril-class
adventurer someday. That's all.
SIGN Bronze-class
Exam
[02:40] Sheila
You already defeated three orcs?
[02:44] Rentt
Yes.
[02:45] Rentt
Confirm, please.
[02:47] Rentt
For a solo adventurer like me,
a magic bag is a necessity.
[02:53] Rentt
It took me five years to save up the
money for it, but it was worth it.
[02:57] Sheila
They've been dressed properly
and are well-preserved.
[03:01] Sheila
I'm sure the client will be satisfied.
[03:05] Rentt
So the job's complete, yes?
[03:07] Sheila
Yes.
[03:09] Rentt
What is it?
[03:11] Sheila
Um, can you wait a moment?
[03:14] Rentt
That's fine, but...
[03:18] Adventurers
Hey, did you hear?
[03:20] Adventurers
He took down three orcs.
[03:22] Adventurers
Who is that guy?
[03:24] Adventurers
I've never seen him around here.
[03:26] Rentt
I guess as a rookie Iron-class,
I stood out too much.
[03:30] Sheila
Here you go.
[03:33] Rentt
What's this?
[03:34] Sheila
I just spoke to my manager.
[03:37] Sheila
Rentt, why don't you try
taking the promotion exam?
[03:41] Rentt
Promotion exam?
[03:42] Sheila
Yes, the promotion exam for Bronze-class.
[03:46] Sheila
It's rare for somebody to get the
opportunity so soon after registering,
[03:49] Sheila
but you seem to have the potential.
[03:54] Rentt
I'd love to.
[03:57] Lorraine
So, you've already been asked to
take the promotion exam for Bronze?
[04:00] Lorraine
Well, it makes sense, with your ability.
[04:04] Rentt
It's partially thanks to this body.
[04:07] Lorraine
Yes, but that just means you're
capable of using its strength.
[04:10] Lorraine
So, what name did you register
under at the guild?
[04:15] Rentt
Rentt Vivie.
[04:21] Rentt
You okay?
[04:24] Lorraine
No, not really.
[04:27] Lorraine
Why Vivie?
[04:29] Lorraine
If you use my family name when
everyone knows I was close to you,
[04:33] Lorraine
people will be suspicious!
[04:34] Rentt
It wouldn't be fair to you to have
people thinking you had a weird man
[04:38] Rentt
coming and going from your home.
[04:41] Rentt
So I decided I'd be your relative.
[04:45] Lorraine
Well, I guess I can understand that...
[04:49] Lorraine
But you don't need to worry
about my reputation.
[04:55] Lorraine
I'm just a broke academic who came here
'cause she couldn't make it in the capital.
[04:59] Lorraine
I don't care what people think about me.
[05:03] Rentt
You've done a lot for me.
[05:06] Rentt
I don't want to cause trouble for you.
[05:09] Lorraine
You've done a lot for me, too.
[05:10] Lorraine
The cooking, washing, cleaning...
you do almost all of it.
[05:15] Lorraine
I owe you more than you owe me.
[05:19] Rentt
That's not true.
[05:22] Rentt
I'm still human because of you.
[05:27] Lorraine
Rentt...
[05:30] Lorraine
Then you can just stay
here as long as you like.
[05:33] Lorraine
You're my relative, aren't you?
[05:37] Lorraine
Nothing wrong with imposing on family.
[05:40] Rentt
Yeah?
[05:41] Rentt
I'll take you up on that, then.
[05:53] Man
Um, who are you?
[05:55] Rentt
I'm Rentt Vivie. I'm here for the exam.
[05:59] Man
Oh, you're him?
[06:01] Sheila
Huh? Rentt? I didn't think
you'd be coming today...
[06:05] Rentt
I got approved to take the exam.
[06:08] Sheila
Yes, but I assumed you'd wait for the
next one so you had time to study.
[06:12] Rentt
The next one is several months from now.
[06:15] Sheila
But...
[06:17] Adventurer
Whew, I made it!
[06:21] Rentt
He'll lose points for that.
[06:23] Rentt
An adventurer who can't show
up on time isn't trustworthy.
[06:27] Man
Okay, Iron-class adventurers!
[06:30] Man
We're about to begin the Bronze-class exam!
[06:33] Man
First, the knowledge test!
[06:35] Man
We'll test you on guild rules and the
proper handling of monster drops.
[06:39] Man
You'll have to prove you're
ready to be Bronze-class.
[06:44] Man
Only those who pass this exam will be
allowed to take the practical portion.
[06:48] Rentt
The practical changes each time.
[06:51] Rentt
When I did it, it was gathering herbs.
[06:54] Man
All right, anyone who's taking the
written exam, come with me.
[07:02] Sheila
Good luck!
[07:04] Rentt
Thanks.
[07:14] Rentt
There are more people here than I thought.
[07:20] Rentt
Isn't that girl...
[07:25] (Flashback) Ryze
Laura!
[07:25] (Flashback) Laura
Right!
[07:31] Rentt
I suppose her partner's taking the oral exam.
[07:35] Rentt
It's rare for normal people
to be able to read and write.
[07:39] Rentt
I learned a lot of things in my village
growing up, like reading, writing,
[07:43] Rentt
and knowledge of herbs.
[07:45] Rentt
Because I thought I'd need
those to become an adventurer.
[07:50] Rentt
So this exam will be easy for me.
[07:53] Rentt
It's my second time taking it, too.
[07:59] Adventurers
Sheesh, why was it so hard?
[08:00] Adventurers
Don't let it get you down.
[08:02] Sheila
You're amazing, Rentt.
[08:04] Sheila
I heard you got a perfect score.
[08:06] Sheila
That's extremely rare.
[08:07] Rentt
I'm just glad I passed.
[08:10] Rentt
What will I be doing in the practical?
[08:12] Sheila
You'll form a party with a few of the
others and carry out a job for the guild.
[08:17] Rentt
A job for the guild, huh?
[08:21] Sheila
Ryze! Laura!
[08:26] Sheila
You three will be forming a party today.
[08:36] Ryze
I'm Ryze Danner, a swordsman.
[08:38] Ryze
I use spirit energy to raise
my strength when I fight.
[08:41] Ryze
Let me fight in front.
[08:43] Laura
I'm Laura Sati.
[08:44] Laura
I'm a mage, and I can use healing magic.
[08:47] Laura
I'll do my best at the rear.
[08:49] Laura
Nice to meet you.
[08:51] Rentt
I'm Rentt Vivie.
[08:53] Rentt
Nice to meet you.
[08:54] Rentt
I fight with a sword, too. I can
use magic and spirit power.
[08:58] Man
Okay, listen up, everyone!
[09:01] Man
The practical exam involves completing
a job prepared by the guild.
[09:06] Man
It will take place at the
Labyrinth of the New Moon.
[09:08] Man
I will now hand out maps.
[09:10] Man
Your job is to reach the
point written on your map.
[09:15] Adventurer
What, so we just have to get here?
[09:18] Man
You have until sunset!
[09:20] Man
Dismissed!
[09:22] Adventurer
Um, are there any restrictions?
[09:25] Man
None in particular.
[09:26] Man
You can do anything you like.
[09:28] Adventurer
Are we all headed for the same spot?
[09:31] Man
Yes. You're all going to a single location.
[09:34] Man
The first party to arrive will receive
a reward befitting their efforts.
[09:41] Adventurer
So it's a race, huh?
[09:45] Laura
It's a race...
[09:47] Ryze
Yeah.
[10:02] Ryze
Rentt, you ever been to the
Labyrinth of the New Moon?
[10:06] Rentt
Yeah.
[10:07] Ryze
I see. Me too.
[10:09] Laura
Just partway through
the first floor, though.
[10:13] Ryze
That still counts.
[10:14] Ryze
I'll be Bronze-class soon, and
then I'll go further down.
[10:17] Ryze
Let's hurry.
[10:19] Laura
Yeah.
[10:20] Rentt
Wait.
[10:22] Ryze
What do you want, Rentt?
[10:23] Rentt
We should buy a map.
[10:26] Laura
We can't use the map we were given?
[10:30] Rentt
This map is 15 years old.
[10:34] Laura
This old map won't be very reliable.
[10:38] Ryze
Damn it! They tried to trick us!
[10:41] Ryze
Hey! Rentt?
[10:46] Merchant
Can I help you?
[10:50] Rentt
I'd like to buy a map.
[10:52] Merchant
A map. Of course. That'll be two silvers.
[10:56] Ryze
That's expensive!
[10:57] Laura
We can't afford that.
[10:58] Rentt
We just need one for the first floor.
[11:01] Rentt
That shouldn't cost more
than five bronze pieces.
[11:05] Merchant
You've got a deal.
[11:07] Merchant
No fooling you, huh, sir?
[11:11] Rentt
Sorry.
[11:12] Ryze
Is that map really right?
[11:15] Rentt
Compare it to the one you got.
[11:18] Laura
Um...
[11:21] Ryze
This part had a cave-in?
[11:23] Laura
The path changed at this part, too!
[11:25] Laura
And look! This map has the
location of all the traps, too!
[11:30] Ryze
We won't get lost now!
[11:32] Laura
Yeah!
[11:33] Merchant
If you want to pass,
kiddos, do what he says.
[11:41] Ryze
Not bad, Rentt.
[11:43] Laura
But why would the guild give us bad maps?
[11:47] Rentt
Those carriages could've just as
easily taken us to the wrong place.
[11:57] Rentt
An adventurer can never
let their guard down.
[12:00] Rentt
The point of this exam is to see if you've
got what it takes to be an adventurer.
[12:04] Laura
I see.
[12:05] Ryze
Seriously? What a pain.
[12:08] Rentt
Remember this.
[12:09] Ryze
Remember what?
[12:11] Rentt
The guild can be surprisingly mean.
[12:36] Rentt
Don't let your guard down because
they're just skeletons.
[12:38] Ryze
I know that!
[12:42] Ryze
Thanks, Laura!
[12:43] Laura
Sure!
[12:56] Rentt
They're pretty good for their age.
[13:00] Rentt
They're working together as a team,
[13:02] Rentt
and they've each got well-defined roles so
that neither's doing too much for the other.
[13:10] Rentt
Are you both okay?
[13:14] Ryze
Don't worry about me...
is what I'd like to say.
[13:18] Laura
Were there always this many
monsters around here?
[13:25] Laura
Rentt?
[13:27] Rentt
The monsters are being lured here.
[13:29] Ryze
Is that possible?
[13:31] Rentt
Yeah. You use things like this.
[13:35] Laura
Incense?
[13:40] Ryze
What's this doing here?
[13:42] Rentt
You'll know soon.
[13:45] Rentt
Also, there's an ambush up ahead.
[13:49] Laura
But none of the monsters here should
have that level of intelligence.
[13:53] Rentt
Not monsters.
[13:56] Laura
Don't tell me...
[13:57] Rentt
That's right. The ones laying
the ambush are human.
[14:01] Laura
But...
[14:03] Ryze
We have to fight humans?
[14:06] Rentt
Get ready.
[14:09] Rentt
I'll take the lead.
[14:25] Rentt
Watch out! There are two more!
[14:28] Ryze
I told you, I'll take the front!
[14:31] Rentt
That's right!
[14:32] Rentt
I'll let you handle him, then.
[14:34] Ryze
Right.
[14:38] Ryze
Wow...
[15:01] Laura
Ryze!
[15:06] Ryze
Thanks, Laura!
[15:08] Ambusher
Damn it! I can't see!
[15:09] Ryze
This is payback!
[15:13] Rentt
Looks like they don't need my help.
[15:20] Laura
Ryze!
[15:22] Ryze
Yeah!
[15:30] Ryze
W-We got 'em.
[15:32] Laura
It worked!
[15:40] Laura
They're taking the exam too, aren't they?
[15:44] Laura
Why would they do this?
[15:45] Ryze
They wanted to make us fail the exam.
[15:48] Ryze
The examiner did say you could do anything.
[15:51] Ryze
Right, Rentt?
[15:53] Rentt
Anything can happen in the Labyrinth.
[15:56] Rentt
The monsters aren't the only threat.
[15:59] Rentt
Now you understand, right?
[16:01] Rentt
An adventurer can never
let their guard down.
[16:06] Ryze
Rentt.
[16:09] Ryze
From now on, we'll obey your orders.
[16:13] Laura
Ryze.
[16:16] Ryze
Let's keep an eye out as we move on.
[16:19] Rentt
Right.
[16:24] Rentt
Come pick them up quickly.
[16:37] Cloaked Man
He saw me?
[16:38] Ambusher
Hey, untie me, please.
[16:42] Cloaked Man
Oh, sorry.
[16:45] Cloaked Man
The man in the mask seemed to
know you were sent by the guild.
[16:50] Ambusher
Seriously?
[16:51] Ambusher
Who is he?
[16:52] Cloaked Man
I don't know.
[16:54] Cloaked Man
Though I can think of one
person it might be...
[16:59] Cloaked Man
Maybe my sister was right.
[17:07] Sheila
Is there something I can
do for you, Guildmaster?
[17:10] Guildmaster
Relax. Being all formal in front
of me won't earn you a raise.
[17:15] Sheila
Yes, I know that.
[17:19] Guildmaster
I heard a strange rumor about the incident.
[17:23] Guildmaster
Rentt Vivie.
[17:26] Guildmaster
The new adventurer you're in charge of.
[17:29] Sheila
Has he done something wrong?
[17:31] Guildmaster
Some people are saying he's the criminal.
[17:35] Guildmaster
He showed up out of nowhere
in Maalt. He's quite skilled.
[17:39] Guildmaster
And we don't know anything about his past.
[17:42] Guildmaster
If you want to say that's
suspicious, I agree with you.
[17:46] Guildmaster
But every adventurer has
something in their past.
[17:49] Guildmaster
That doesn't mean we can just
ignore the accusation, however.
[17:53] Guildmaster
If you learn anything,
tell me immediately. Got it?
[17:58] Sheila
Yes, sir.
[18:07] Rentt
Our destination's just up ahead.
[18:10] Laura
This door... it's what I think it is, right?
[18:14] Rentt
Yes.
[18:15] Rentt
It's one of several boss
rooms on this floor.
[18:19] Rentt
There's no way to get to our destination
except by going through it.
[18:25] Rentt
You ever fought a boss?
[18:27] Ryze
Not yet.
[18:28] Ryze
It's not something two
Iron-classes can handle.
[18:31] Rentt
Scared?
[18:32] Ryze
Of course not!
[18:36] Rentt
There's no shame for an adventurer
in avoiding a fight you can't win.
[18:44] Adventurer
What, we're not the first?
[18:48] Adventurer
They think they can beat
us to the goal, huh?
[18:51] Rentt
Other examinees?
[18:53] Rentt
Good timing.
[18:55] Laura
Good timing?
[18:57] Adventurer
A party with two kids and
a weirdo in a mask. Great.
[19:03] Rentt
We're both taking the same exam.
[19:05] Rentt
I don't appreciate being talked to that way.
[19:07] Adventurer
What, you're lecturing us?
[19:09] Adventurer
Who do you think you are?
[19:11] Adventurer
Hey, that girl's actually pretty cute.
[19:15] Adventurer
Hey, want to come with us instead?
[19:18] Ryze
Don't you dare speak to Laura.
[19:20] Adventurer
Who are you, kid?
[19:22] Ryze
We got here first.
[19:24] Ryze
Don't get in our way.
[19:25] Adventurer
What?
[19:27] Adventurer
H-Hey, it was a joke!
[19:30] Rentt
I'm sorry. I don't have
much of a sense of humor.
[19:35] Adventurer
Look, I'm sorry!
[19:37] Adventurer
We're not going to try to stop
you from going in first.
[19:39] Adventurer
Right?
[19:39] All
Y-Yeah!
[19:41] Rentt
You can go in first.
[19:44] Rentt
We're going to rest a little, first.
[19:47] Adventurer
Okay, we'll take you up on that.
[19:50] Adventurer
R-Right.
[19:51] Adventurer
Thanks!
[19:58] Adventurer
We're lucky they were so dumb!
[20:03] Ryze
What are you doing, Rentt?
[20:05] Ryze
If they beat us there, we lose!
[20:07] Rentt
Why?
[20:08] Ryze
Why? It's a race, isn't it?
[20:12] Laura
I'm sure Rentt has a reason, don't you?
[20:15] Rentt
So you figured it out, Laura?
[20:20] Ryze
You wanted to show us what a
boss fight looks like, first?
[20:23] Rentt
That's part of it. But not all.
[20:27] Adventurer
My leg! My leg!
[20:39] Laura
Those were guild employees, weren't they?
[20:43] Rentt
Yes. Even if you lose, you won't die.
[20:47] Rentt
Feel better?
[20:50] Ryze
Well...
[20:52] Rentt
Like I said.
[20:54] Rentt
There's no shame for an adventurer
in avoiding a fight you can't win.
[21:00] Ryze
Maybe you're right.
[21:02] Ryze
But no, that's not what I meant!
[21:06] Ryze
If I run away here, I don't
think I'll ever come back.
[21:11] Ryze
I'll never be a real adventurer.
[21:16] Laura
Ryze...
[21:18] Rentt
So... will you come with me, Laura?
[21:23] Laura
Yeah.
[21:25] Rentt
You've made your decision, then.
[21:28] Rentt
An adventurer who's been
broken once becomes weak.
[21:32] Rentt
Once that happens, it's not rare at all for
adventurers to just quit the job entirely.
[21:39] Rentt
Ryze chose not to run because
he sensed that instinctively.
[21:45] Rentt
That's an important part of what
it takes to be an adventurer.

[02:44] Laura
A Grand Slime...
[02:49] Ryze
We won't mess up like those guys did.
[02:51] Laura
Let's be the ones to tell
the guild we beat it!
[02:55] Rentt
This didn't go like I was hoping.
[02:57] Rentt
There's no actual need to
beat the boss for this exam.
[03:02] Rentt
Honestly, I was hoping those other
examinees would beat it for us.
[03:07] Rentt
But, well, it's important to
encounter some challenges in life.
[03:16] Ryze
I can see through your attacks!
[03:18] Rentt
Aim for its core!
[03:30] Rentt
Focus on empowering your magic.
[03:34] Rentt
These two are capable of
defeating a Grand Slime.
[03:40] (Flashback) Rentt
Listen to me. Physical attacks
will barely work at all.
[03:44] (Flashback) Rentt
Magic's what you'll need to win.
[03:47] (Flashback) Rentt
Can you use powerful fire magic?
[03:50] (Flashback) Laura
Yes, a little...
[03:52] (Flashback) Laura
But it'll take time to activate.
[03:55] (Flashback) Rentt
Don't worry.
[03:57] (Flashback) Rentt
I'll block its attacks while you're casting.
[03:59] (Flashback) Ryze
Wait. Can you let me be the one to do that?
[04:08] Laura
Rentt, help Ryze! I'm fine on my own!
[04:25] Laura
Here I go!
[04:29] Laura
Grand Pyrox!
[04:49] Laura
We got it!
[04:50] Rentt
Finish it before it regenerates!
[04:52] Ryze
Right!
[05:00] Laura
We did it!
[05:02] Ryze
Yeah. We beat the boss!
[05:07] Ryze
Rentt?
[05:09] Rentt
Slime fluids are worth a lot.
[05:12] Rentt
Let's gather them up.
[05:14] Rentt
Even if we split the money among the three
of us, we'll get at least one silver each.
[05:24] Adventurers
See you there!
[05:26] Laura
Well, I don't think it matters.
[05:28] Rentt
I knew you'd figure it out.
[05:37] Rentt
Just like I thought.
[05:38] Laura
A sleeping gas trap?
[05:41] Rentt
Right before the goal is one of the
places people let their guard down most.
[05:45] Rentt
Not that it really matters if
they get there ahead of us.
[05:49] Ryze
What do you mean?
[05:51] Laura
Getting there first doesn't
mean passing, does it?
[05:57] Laura
Think back really carefully.
[05:59] Laura
The guild didn't say a word about that.
[06:03] Man
Your job is to reach the
point written on your map.
[06:07] (Flashback) Man
The first party to arrive will receive
a reward befitting their efforts.
[06:14] Laura
They set it up so we'd think
it was a race, but...
[06:19] Laura
That's why Rentt didn't mind
letting the other party go ahead,
[06:23] Laura
even when we were in front of the boss room.
[06:25] Ryze
That's a mean trap.
[06:27] Ryze
I feel stupid for worrying.
[06:30] Rentt
An adventurer's only job is to complete
the task before the deadline.
[06:36] Ryze
It wouldn't have killed
them to tell us that.
[06:40] Rentt
You can't be a real adventurer
unless you can think for yourself.
[06:49] Man
Congratulations.
[06:50] Man
You're the first here.
[06:53] Ryze
Are you real?
[06:54] Laura
Show us proof you're with the guild.
[06:58] Man
Is this enough for you?
[07:00] Laura
Yes. Thank you.
[07:04] Man
Take these, then.
[07:07] Man
Show these to the guild's front desk and
you'll become Bronze-class adventurers.
[07:16] Ryze
Hey, what's that bonus that
you guys talked about?
[07:19] Man
Oh, the first three teams
get a little bonus.
[07:24] Man
Here. Potions and a case for them.
[07:28] Ryze
I've been wanting one of these!
[07:31] Laura
So that's what that was about.
[07:34] Rentt
Hey, you two.
[07:36] Rentt
Can we make a side trip before we go home?
[07:45] Ryze
This is the 2nd floor, right?
[07:48] Rentt
Do you know what it's like?
[07:50] Ryze
No.
[07:52] Rentt
The labyrinths are beyond
human understanding.
[07:56] Rentt
You'll realize that up ahead.
[08:09] Ryze
Why is there a sun underground?
[08:11] Laura
I'd heard that each floor was
totally different, but...
[08:16] Ryze
Wow.
[08:18] Rentt
This is the world you're about to enter.
[08:22] Ryze
We're...
[08:29] Ryze
Hey, hey.
[08:30] Ryze
Let's take a little look around.
[08:32] Rentt
That's a bad idea.
[08:33] Rentt
The exam's not over until we're back.
[08:42] Laura
It feels like it's been so long
since I've seen this building.
[08:46] Ryze
There were traps on the way home
too, just like we thought.
[08:51] Rentt
Remember what I said? The guild...
[08:53] Both
...can be mean!
[08:55] Sheila
Okay, good work!
[08:58] Sheila
With this, the Bronze-class examination
comes to an end for real.
[09:03] Ryze
Does this mean we're Bronze-class now?
[09:07] Sheila
Well...
[09:09] Brother
Sister, they'll be fine.
[09:12] Brother
Here's the report.
[09:15] Sheila
I see.
[09:17] Sheila
In that case...
[09:18] Ryze
What's going on?
[09:19] Rentt
He was watching us the whole
time during the exam.
[09:25] Laura
I had no idea!
[09:27] Brother
The exam also tests what
kind of person you are.
[09:31] Brother
We can't raise your rank if we decide you're
not the right kind of person for it.
[09:36] Laura
And so we...
[09:39] Sheila
You pass without problems.
[09:42] Sheila
Now you're real Bronze-class adventurers!
[09:46] Ryze
We passed...
[09:49] Ryze
Did you hear that, Laura?
She says we passed!
[09:51] Laura
We did it, Ryze!
[09:53] Ryze
I'm so glad we left the village!
[09:55] Laura
Yeah! It was worth coming even when
Mom and Dad didn't want me to!
[09:59] Sheila
What they're saying kind of scares me...
[10:01] Laura
Thanks for coming with me!
[10:02] Brother
Well, it happens a lot.
[10:04] Ryze
We need to go tell them.
[10:05] Rentt
So I'm Bronze-class again now...
[10:11] Rentt
Ryze, Laura. Thanks for
coming with me today.
[10:14] Ryze
No, that's our line.
[10:16] Ryze
We won't forget what you taught us today.
[10:20] Ryze
Rentt, thanks to you, I think we've
finally become real adventurers.
[10:26] Rentt
Ryze...
[10:27] Laura
I'd like to ask you to keep
adventuring with us...
[10:31] Laura
but that's impossible, isn't it?
[10:35] Laura
It feels like your goal is
somehow different than ours.
[10:42] Laura
That's why you told us all that
stuff during the exam, right?
[10:45] Laura
So we could make it on our own.
[10:48] Ryze
Yeah.
[10:49] Laura
You may have only been a part
of our party for one day,
[10:52] Laura
but you're still a treasured comrade.
[10:54] Ryze
Yeah. Let's adventure again sometime!
[11:03] Sheila
They're good kids, huh?
[11:05] Rentt
Yeah. I felt like a parent
more than anything.
[11:08] Rentt
But they might've been working hard
to make me feel welcome, too.
[11:15] Sheila
Rentt.
[11:19] Sheila
I have a question for you.
[11:21] Sheila
I apologize for asking when you're
tired, but will you come with me?
[11:26] Sheila
You're sharp enough to know
what I want to ask, aren't you?
[11:32] Rentt
Sheila knows who I really am.
[11:38] Rentt
Does the Guild intend to punish
me for what I've done?
[11:42] Sheila
I'm asking the questions here.
[11:45] Rentt
If that's the case, I'll never
come back to this guild.
[11:51] Rentt
That's all.
[11:53] Sheila
Wait!
[11:56] Sheila
I just want to know...
[12:00] Sheila
What exactly happened to you?
[12:08] Rentt
I thought about running away.
[12:10] Rentt
But I couldn't.
[12:13] Rentt
Her voice was the voice of a woman who was
genuinely worried about an old friend.
[12:22] Rentt
Sheila, I've got a big problem
I'm dealing with right now.
[12:29] Rentt
I don't want anyone getting
involved. Not even the guild.
[12:34] Sheila
Rentt, I actually haven't told
the guild about you, yet.
[12:42] Rentt
Sheila... Why?
[12:46] Sheila
Part of it was that I wasn't sure.
[12:49] Sheila
But more than anything, I wanted
to see the truth for myself.
[12:56] Sheila
I've told the man who was watching
you during the exam a little, but...
[13:01] Sheila
He's my brother.
[13:04] Sheila
He can keep a secret.
[13:08] Sheila
Would you please tell me
what's happening to you?
[13:14] Sheila
It's hard to trust me, isn't it?
[13:17] Sheila
So I've prepared this.
[13:20] Rentt
A magical contract?
[13:23] Sheila
Yes.
[13:24] Sheila
If the contract detailed here is broken,
[13:27] Sheila
in this case, if I share your secret,
[13:30] Sheila
I'll suffer a penalty
backed by magical force.
[13:34] Sheila
If she does not carry out
her end of the contract,
[13:37] Sheila
Sheila Ibarss will leave the guild, travel
to a country where slavery is legal,
[13:43] Sheila
and perform the necessary paperwork to
transfer ownership of herself to another party.
[13:47] Rentt
No, no, no. That's way too heavy!
[13:55] Rentt
Why go that far?
[14:00] Sheila
I want to help you, and not
because I'm part of the guild.
[14:05] Rentt
Why?
[14:07] Sheila
Because it's thanks to you that I grew up.
[14:13] Rentt
Sheila...
[14:15] Sheila
You don't realize it, but there are a
lot of people who are grateful to you.
[14:23] Rentt
All right. I'll sign.
[14:26] Rentt
And then I'll tell you.
[14:28] Sheila
Right.
[14:32] Rentt
Now, where to begin...
[14:36] Rentt
It would be faster to show you, I think.
[14:47] Rentt
Terrifying, isn't it?
[14:49] Rentt
I bet you regret asking.
[14:53] Sheila
No! That's not true...
[14:55] Sheila
It's not...
[14:58] Sheila
If you're suffering that much...
I'd much rather know.
[15:06] Sheila
But how did this happen?
[15:09] Rentt
I've turned into a monster.
[15:14] Rentt
I'm an undead right now.
[15:19] Sheila
Is that possible?
[15:23] Rentt
I can see why you'd feel
distressed hearing this.
[15:30] Rentt
So I want you to think about
it again before you answer...
[15:33] Rentt
Can you really help me?
[15:40] Rentt
Of course, I have no intention
of harming anyone.
[15:44] Rentt
But that's a different question from
whether you can believe me or not.
[15:49] Sheila
Wait!
[15:50] Sheila
I believe you!
[15:53] Sheila
I believe you're a monster now,
and that you won't attack anyone!
[15:59] Sheila
Because... Because... you
were always such a good guy!
[16:06] Sheila
Those kids... and me, too...
[16:09] Sheila
We all owe you so much.
[16:12] Sheila
So I'll help you.
[16:17] Sheila
Rentt, if something happens between
you and the guild, tell me.
[16:22] Sheila
I promise... I promise I'll help you.
[16:32] Lorraine
Oh!
[16:34] Sheila
I'm sorry for coming at this hour.
[16:36] Sheila
I insisted on coming to speak with you.
[16:42] Lorraine
Well, you're certainly a rare guest.
[16:45] Lorraine
Rentt, don't tell me you've
been messing around with her.
[16:48] Sheila
He hasn't.
[16:50] Sheila
But I've learned a lot about him.
[16:53] Lorraine
I see.
[16:54] Lorraine
Well, that's fine.
[16:55] Lorraine
Come inside.
[16:58] Lorraine
It's not very clean, though, I'm afraid.
[17:00] Rentt
I cleaned it up before I left...
[17:07] Lorraine
All right. I suppose I should
just come out and ask.
[17:12] Lorraine
How much did you hear?
[17:13] Sheila
Rentt told me he's a monster.
[17:16] Sheila
And that he's not going to attack anyone.
[17:19] Lorraine
Oh, that's everything!
[17:23] Lorraine
And yet you came all the way out here?
[17:25] Lorraine
That's awfully naïve of you.
[17:27] Sheila
What do you mean by that?
[17:29] Lorraine
Think about it.
[17:31] Lorraine
Rentt is an undead.
And I'm a sketchy-looking academic.
[17:36] Lorraine
What do you think happens to a young
girl who wanders into the home
[17:39] Lorraine
of a witch and a monster?
[17:43] Lorraine
Normally, you could expect to be thrown
into a boiling pot and end up in my stomach.
[17:51] Sheila
Aw, you're no witch.
[17:54] Sheila
Everyone knows you're a
wonderful researcher.
[17:58] Lorraine
Oh no, that's just what
I've made everyone think!
[18:02] Lorraine
Actually, my hobby is going out at night
to hunt the blood of young maidens!
[18:08] Lorraine
It makes my skin so beautiful.
[18:14] Lorraine
That's what Rentt's become.
[18:27] Rentt
Lorraine doesn't see Sheila as a person,
even as she's sitting in front of her.
[18:33] Rentt
Depending on her answer, she'll
eliminate her without hesitation.
[18:45] Sheila
I... know that.
[18:49] Sheila
I know that.
[18:55] Lorraine
I see. Good, then.
[18:58] Lorraine
I'm not saying it to be mean.
[19:02] Lorraine
And it's late.
[19:05] Lorraine
Let's have dinner together.
[19:07] Sheila
O-Okay!
[19:14] Sheila
Thank you for the meal.
[19:16] Sheila
I heard you were a good cook, Rentt. I
guess everyone who said that was right.
[19:20] Rentt
I learned in my home village.
[19:23] Lorraine
It's handy, having him around.
[19:26] Lorraine
He'll do all the chores for you.
[19:29] Lorraine
And the price, if I were to
call it that... is that, for now.
[19:38] Sheila
I see.
[19:40] Sheila
Ghasts are a type of
low-ranking vampire, aren't they?
[19:43] Lorraine
That's right.
[19:45] Lorraine
Now, you two made a magical contract?
[19:50] Rentt
Yes. She won't share who I am.
[19:54] Sheila
Yes. But you've been standing out lately...
[20:01] Rentt
I have?
[20:02] Sheila
There are lots of rookie adventurers going
missing right now, all over the kingdom.
[20:09] Lorraine
They haven't just been killed by monsters?
[20:12] Sheila
If that happened, their
stuff should be left behind.
[20:15] Sheila
The guild is assuming it's
a series of kidnappings.
[20:19] Lorraine
I see. And they have a suspect
who looks extremely suspicious,
[20:23] Lorraine
and is also highly skilled.
[20:25] Lorraine
Specifically, Rentt, correct?
[20:28] Sheila
He's certainly not acting like a rookie...
[20:31] Sheila
Some are spreading rumors
about him out of jealousy.
[20:35] Rentt
Wow, people are jealous of me now?
[20:38] Lorraine
Hey! It's not a good thing!
[20:41] Sheila
That's right.
[20:42] Sheila
You're in a delicate position right now.
[20:45] Rentt
If it's that bad, I can stop going
into the labyrinth for a while.
[20:50] Sheila
How many days is "a while," exactly?
[20:55] Rentt
Three days or so.
[20:57] Lorraine
What?
[21:00] Rentt
Okay... four.
[21:09] Laura
I hope we get someone good.
[21:11] Ryze
Yeah.
[21:13] Ryze
Once we've got a party, we're going
down to the second floor again.
[21:17] Laura
Yeah.
[21:18] Laura
We didn't get to go anywhere last time,
so let's fight a whole lot of monsters!
[21:23] Guildmaster
Work hard, rookies.
[21:26] Guildmaster
Hey, I heard Rentt Vivie
passed his exam, too.
[21:30] Sheila
His skills and personality were just fine.
[21:35] Guildmaster
I see.
[21:36] Sheila
Yes.
[21:38] Guildmaster
Speaking of Rentts...
[21:41] Guildmaster
What happened to Rentt Faina?
[21:44] Guildmaster
I was planning on recruiting him
to the guild once he retired.
[21:47] Rookie
"Forgot"?
[21:49] Rookie
What am I supposed to do?
[21:50] Guildmaster
Look. One of the new kids is in trouble.
[21:53] Sheila
I-I'll go right away!
[21:58] Sheila
But Guildmaster, the other Rentt
is a wonderful adventurer, too!

[00:23] Lorraine
Rentt's heading back into
the labyrinth today...
[00:27] Lorraine
No, he's not supposed to go until
the kidnapping thing calms down.
[00:34] Lorraine
It wouldn't kill him to take the day off...
[00:38] Lorraine
Nah, I suppose that's impossible for him.
[02:19] Rentt
Not bad.
[02:20] Clope
I've made some adjustments just for you.
[02:23] Clope
Since I know your habits.
[02:27] Rentt
He definitely knows who I am...
SIGN A New Weapon
and Power
[02:30] Clope
I've given it the ability to use mana,
spirit energy, and divinity, just like you asked.
[02:34] Clope
Try it out.
[02:36] Rentt
Okay.
[02:37] Rentt
First, magic.
[02:46] Clope
Wow... you're a lot stronger now.
[02:50] Clope
Your mana seems way more powerful.
[02:53] Rentt
All I can do is try and force
it into the sword, though.
[02:57] Rentt
But I do have some degree of
control over my spirit energy.
[03:10] Rentt
And lastly, divinity.
[03:19] Rentt
This is a good sword.
[03:20] Rentt
Infusing it with divinity
didn't harm it at all.
[03:23] Clope
Look... it's sprouted new leaves.
[03:27] Rentt
An effect of the divinity?
[03:30] Clope
It's the only thing I can think of...
[03:33] Clope
Hey, how are you able to use divinity?
[03:37] Clope
That's normally given to
you by the gods, right?
[03:40] Rentt
I once repaired a shrine
that had been abandoned.
[03:44] Clope
You're more of a believer than I thought.
[03:46] Rentt
I just felt like doing it
for some reason, is all.
[03:48] Rentt
I don't even know what god it was.
[03:52] Rentt
It must've been a lower-ranking
one, I'm sure.
[03:56] Clope
Hey, can I keep this?
[03:59] Clope
If these sprouts grow, they
might have divinity in them.
[04:02] Rentt
Fine with me.
[04:04] Clope
Thanks.
[04:05] Rentt
Can I practice a little more?
[04:08] Clope
Sure. What are you going to do, though?
[04:10] Clope
You've tried everything, haven't you?
[04:13] Rentt
I want to try them all at once.
[04:19] Clope
Will this do?
[04:20] Rentt
Yeah.
[04:22] Clope
Have you ever heard of Mana-Spirit Fusion?
[04:25] Rentt
I've heard rumors.
[04:28] Clope
It's a technique that allows you
to massively power up your magic
[04:30] Clope
and spirit skills by using
them both at the same time.
[04:33] Rentt
You'd have to be a real master to do that.
[04:35] Clope
Of course.
[04:37] Clope
You screw it up, and your
body explodes, I've heard.
[04:41] Clope
Want to back out?
[04:43] Rentt
No, I'll try it.
[04:45] Rentt
An explosion wouldn't be enough
to kill this body, anyway.
[04:49] Clope
Here.
[04:51] Clope
Use this.
[04:52] Clope
If this breaks in the process, it's no loss.
[04:55] Rentt
You're sure?
[04:57] Clope
Yeah. It can't handle divinity, but
it's a lot cheaper than a new sword.
[05:03] Clope
Perfect for testing.
[05:06] Rentt
Okay. First, I put my mana into my sword
and spirit energy into my hand...
[05:13] Clope
I-Is that...
[05:16] Rentt
This is tough...
[05:18] Rentt
It's like I'm trying to jam something
into a box that's already full.
[05:23] Rentt
This is bad... I can't keep it up...
[05:32] Clope
Hey... are you going to add
divinity to what you just did?
[05:36] Clope
That's really dangerous!
[05:38] Rentt
I am.
[05:46] Rentt
I need power...
[05:48] Rentt
If I'm going to be a
Mythril-class adventurer!
[05:58] Clope
Y-You okay?
[06:00] Clope
That looks like trouble!
[06:06] Clope
Hey, the sword can't take any more of that!
[06:26] Clope
The wood turned into a ball?
[06:28] Rentt
I'm sorry... your sword...
[06:30] Clope
It's fine.
[06:31] Clope
Divinity has the power to remove impurity
and restore matter to its original state.
[06:38] Clope
So you can't use it with a normal weapon,
[06:40] Clope
'cause it'll break the bonds
holding it together.
[06:43] Clope
This sword's made to handle divinity,
but it can't take what you just did.
[06:49] Clope
The most you could do is Mana-Spirit Fusion.
[07:00] Rentt
Hey... what do I do if I find an
enemy I can't defeat with that?
[07:04] Clope
You want me to make you a dozen that
you just carry around with you?
[07:09] Rentt
I don't have the money.
[07:11] Clope
I know that.
[07:18] Rentt
I'm gonna need good equipment if
I'm going to become a Mythril.
[07:22] Rentt
I need to make a lot of money.
[07:25] Ryuntus
Please!
[07:26] Adventurer
It's not happening!
[07:28] Ryuntus
But...
[07:29] Adventurer
I can't take a job that
doesn't come from the guild!
[07:32] Adventurer
It'll cause a huge
mess for me later.
[07:34] Ryuntus
Please! I'm begging you!
[07:36] Adventurer
You need to learn when to shut up.
[07:38] Adventurer
Or do I need to teach you?
[07:40] Rentt
Hey.
[07:42] Adventurer
Wh-Who are you? You look weird...
[07:46] Rentt
Let me talk to him.
[07:50] Rentt
I think I can take him for all he's worth.
[07:55] Adventurer
Do what you want with him.
[07:57] Adventurer
Bye, kid.
[07:59] Adventurer
He says he'll talk to you.
[08:02] Ryuntus
Um...
[08:03] Rentt
Hey.
[08:05] Ryuntus
Who are you?
[08:07] Rentt
An adventurer.
[08:09] Rentt
I can't promise I'll take the job,
but I can at least hear you out.
[08:13] Ryuntus
Really?
[08:15] Rentt
Yeah.
[08:17] Ryuntus
Please defeat the Lord...
the Lord of the Lake!
[08:22] Rentt
The "Lord of the Lake"?
[08:33] Rentt
What a mess this is...
[08:35] Rentt
The reward, and the quest itself,
are both full of problems.
[08:38] (Flashback) Ryuntus
My name is Ryuntus. I'm from Tottsu village.
[08:42] (Flashback) Rentt
Right. The one that's several
days to the east, correct?
[08:47] (Flashback) Ryuntus
You know it?
[08:49] (Flashback) Rentt
I've heard they have a strange festival.
[08:51] (Flashback) Ryuntus
Yes.
[08:52] (Flashback) Ryuntus
There's a legend that they once offered
up a young, beautiful girl whose body
[08:56] (Flashback) Ryuntus
was brimming with mana to the Lord of the
Lake, in exchange for saving the village.
[09:01] (Flashback) Ryuntus
They still hold a festival once
a year to remember that day.
[09:07] (Flashback) Ryuntus
But this time the Lord of the
Lake actually appeared,
[09:10] (Flashback) Ryuntus
and ate the girl who was playing
the role of the sacrifice!
[09:16] (Flashback) Ryuntus
And...
[09:17] (Flashback) Ryuntus
It's started demanding more sacrifices.
[09:20] (Flashback) Ryuntus
Several of the village
girls have already died...
[09:22] (Flashback) Rentt
I see.
[09:24] (Flashback) Ryuntus
Help us!
[09:25] (Flashback) Ryuntus
The next sacrifice is my little sister!
[09:30] (Flashback) Ryuntus
Please!
[09:35] Rentt
Ryuntus's wish is to save his
sister, not to kill a monster.
[09:40] Rentt
There's no need to fight
the Lord of the Lake.
[09:45] Rentt
But...
[09:47] Rentt
Something feels really wrong about this.
[09:52] Rentt
It's a quiet village.
[09:53] Ryuntus
Yes. It's a small village, but
it used to be much more lively.
[09:58] Ryuntus
But since the Lord of the Lake appeared,
everybody's just gotten so tired...
[10:08] Ryuntus
This way, Rentt.
[10:10] Rentt
Right.
[10:13] Rentt
What's this mark?
[10:15] Ryuntus
It's a sign.
[10:16] Ryuntus
The house with this mark has to be the next to
offer their daughter up to the Lord of the Lake.
[10:22] Rentt
Did the Lord of the Lake put it there?
[10:24] Ryuntus
No, it lives deep in the
lake. No one's ever seen it.
[10:29] Ryuntus
It was probably put here
by a Kelpie that serves it.
[10:34] Rentt
A Kelpie? That's a powerful monster.
[10:37] Ryuntus
It is?
[10:39] Amiris
Brother?
[10:41] Ryuntus
Amiris! I'm back!
[10:43] Ryuntus
This is Rentt, the adventurer!
[10:45] Ryuntus
He's a Bronze-class!
[10:48] Ryuntus
He's going to save you!
[10:49] Amiris
Jeez!
[10:51] Amiris
Brother, I told you so many times not to
talk to any weirdos when you went to the city!
[10:56] Ryuntus
But Rentt's a good guy!
[10:58] Amiris
You only think that because
he's tricking you!
[11:02] Amiris
He looks like a weirdo to me!
[11:05] Rentt
That's really mean...
[11:07] Rentt
I can hear every word since my senses
got better when I became a monster...
[11:13] Amiris
You're Rentt, the adventurer, right?
[11:15] Rentt
Yes.
[11:16] Amiris
Thank you for listening
to my foolish brother.
[11:21] Rentt
No, it's fine.
[11:23] Amiris
But the festival of Tottsu village
is an ancient tradition.
[11:29] Amiris
I can't selfishly ask to be
the one girl excused from it.
[11:32] Ryuntus
Amiris!
[11:33] Amiris
Please, forget what he asked you, and leave.
[11:38] Rentt
I was hired by Ryuntus.
[11:42] Rentt
Only Ryuntus has the right
to rescind the request.
[11:47] Ryuntus
I'm not rescinding it! Ever!
[11:53] Amiris
If you're going to be staying in
this village, please use our home.
[11:57] Amiris
But please don't interfere
with the festival.
[12:01] Amiris
I'm glad to become the sacrifice.
[12:07] Ryuntus
I'm sorry my sister's so stubborn.
[12:10] Rentt
The festival's tomorrow night?
[12:12] Ryuntus
Yes.
[12:13] Rentt
From the look of it, Amiris is not
going to run if we tell her to.
[12:20] Rentt
What will you do?
[12:22] Ryuntus
I know it's very dangerous.
[12:24] Ryuntus
But if there's any chance my sister
can be saved... I'll do anything!
[12:29] Ryuntus
So please!
[12:37] Villagers
Hey, mister, what are you selling?
[12:40] Merchant
This is dried meat.
[12:43] Villagers
And this?
[12:44] Merchant
Dried fruits. Here, try some.
[12:49] Villagers
Really?
[12:50] Villagers
It looks so good!
[12:51] Merchant
But I do have a request...
[12:55] Villagers
What is it?
[12:56] Merchant
Tell your parents to buy something.
[13:01] Merchant
I can't sell anything
because nobody's coming!
[13:04] Villagers
Okay!
[13:05] Villagers
I'll tell them!
[13:06] Merchant
Great. Eat up.
[13:08] Villagers
Thank you!
[13:10] Rentt
I'm sorry... I want to ask you something.
[13:15] Villagers
A monster!
[13:16] Rentt
A mons-
[13:17] Villagers
He'll eat us!
[13:18] Merchant
I've never seen you in this village before.
[13:21] Merchant
Here for the festival?
[13:23] Rentt
Something like that.
[13:25] Merchant
You came at a bad time, then.
[13:27] Merchant
The Lord of the Lake is angry right now.
[13:32] Merchant
And so the villagers have better things
to do than buy my wares, I guess!
[13:37] Rentt
I see.
[13:38] Ryuntus
Rentt!
[13:39] Ryuntus
Lunch is ready!
[13:41] Rentt
Okay!
[13:43] Rentt
Sorry to interrupt your business.
[13:45] Merchant
It's fine.
[13:47] Merchant
You should give up on the
festival and head back to town.
[13:50] Rentt
All right.
[13:52] Ryuntus
Did you get to take a look at the lake?
[13:54] Rentt
Yeah.
[13:55] Rentt
Anyway... does that merchant come often?
[13:58] Ryuntus
Yes. They stop here often.
It's quite nice of them.
[14:04] Rentt
I see.
[14:15] Woman
Forgive us, Amiris.
[14:18] Amiris
No, don't apologize.
[14:21] Amiris
The Lord was the one who chose me.
[14:24] Woman
I was sure Ryuntus would
take you and run away...
[14:30] Woman
He was telling everybody we
should call off the festival...
[14:36] Amiris
He was?!
[14:38] Amiris
If we make the Lord angry, it could
easily destroy this village!
[14:44] Woman
He was so desperate... he was worried about
you, but also the future of this village.
[14:54] Amiris
He really is such a fool...
[15:09] Rentt
Amiris, can we talk?
[15:11] Amiris
No! Don't come in!
[15:14] Amiris
The sacrifice must not
meet others so casually!
[15:17] Rentt
All right. Then I'll say it here.
[15:20] Rentt
I'll take care of things.
[15:23] Rentt
There's always a way.
[15:26] Amiris
But...
[15:28] Rentt
I'm serious.
[15:29] Rentt
So you must struggle, too.
[15:32] Amiris
Struggle? How?
[15:35] Amiris
No human could defeat the Lord of the Lake!
[15:38] Rentt
Ryuntus and I will handle
the Lord of the Lake.
[15:42] Amiris
That's impossible!
[15:45] Rentt
Amiris, don't do anything
to make your brother sad.
[15:49] Rentt
He's all the family you have, isn't he?
[15:52] Rentt
So struggle.
[15:54] Rentt
As long as there's hope...
[15:57] Rentt
That's all I wanted to say.
[16:05] Amiris
Thank you.
[16:08] Man
Our Lord, who protects us from
the bottom of the lake...
[16:12] Man
Each time the horns of your servants
leave their mark, we make our sacrifice.
[16:20] Man
One sacrifice of treasure,
one, of our daughters.
[16:24] Man
When the azure light guides,
[16:27] Man
protect us from disaster...
[16:33] Man
I'm sorry, Amiris.
[16:34] Man
We must do this to protect the villlage.
[16:36] Amiris
I know, sir.
[16:38] Man
Do your duty well.
[16:47] Rentt
Let's go.
[16:49] Ryuntus
Right.
[16:50] Ryuntus
Amiris, are you ready?
[16:53] Amiris
Yes. Let's go.
[17:08] Ryuntus
Rentt! The fog!
[17:10] Rentt
Yeah. It appeared at just the right time.
[17:13] Ryuntus
I can't see a thing...
[17:16] Ryuntus
Let's turn back!
[17:19] Amiris
The orb...
[17:20] Rentt
Looks like our "Lord" has
made his appearance.
[17:24] Ryuntus
Rentt, there's something there!
[17:31] Amiris
This is the Lord of the Lake?
[17:34] Amiris
Lord, please, calm your anger!
[17:37] Amiris
Protect the village! Protect the village!
[17:39] Rentt
Stop, Amiris.
[17:40] Rentt
You're wasting your time.
[17:41] Amiris
I'll sacrifice myself... I'll
sacrifice myself, so...
[17:46] Amiris
The orb!
[17:47] Rentt
It's just a beacon, nothing more.
[17:50] Rentt
Hang on to the ship!
[17:53] Amiris
He's floating on the water?!
[17:55] Rentt
It's nice to have a friend
who's an alchemist.
[18:02] Rentt
Now, then... let's show this
"Lord" for what he really is.
[18:09] Rentt
Krakens are normally found in the ocean.
[18:12] Rentt
They don't spit fire, either.
[18:15] Rentt
What?
[18:18] Merchants
It's that weirdo from this afternoon!
[18:21] Rentt
Just like I thought.
[18:23] Rentt
A mage cast an illusion on the fog,
and then fired Fortia Bolivus.
[18:29] Merchants
If you'd just left, you wouldn't
have lost your precious life.
[18:34] Rentt
To think the Lord of the Lake was
just an ugly traveling merchant.
[18:39] Rentt
I've already lost my life once, anyway.
[18:42] Merchant
What the hell are you talking about?
[18:57] Ryuntus
Rentt!
[18:59] Rentt
I'm fine. It's over.
[19:02] Ryuntus
What's that ship?
[19:05] Amiris
What is happening?
[19:11] Man
Amiris? Is that true?
[19:15] Amiris
Yes.
[19:16] Amiris
They pretended to be the Lord,
and demanded sacrifices!
[19:20] Man
How awful...
[19:22] Amiris
Rentt, did you realize from the start?
[19:25] Rentt
I did think it was suspicious.
[19:28] Rentt
A monster that's been worshipped as the Lord
of an area doesn't just go out of control.
[19:32] Man
Hey! Where are the other girls?
[19:38] Rentt
Answer them!
[19:39] Merchant
They're alive!
[19:40] Merchant
We were going to sell them for
a fortune in another land!
[19:43] Man
They're all alive, right?
[19:46] Merchant
There's a small hut on the
other side of the lake.
[19:48] Merchant
That's where they are!
[19:50] Man
Get a carriage ready!
[19:52] Man
We need to go save them!
[19:53] Man
Right!
[19:55] Rentt
Ryuntus, this means the
job is complete, correct?
[19:58] Ryuntus
Yes, of course!
[20:04] Ryuntus
We're doing the festival
over. Stay and watch it.
[20:08] Amiris
He's right. You don't
have to leave so soon.
[20:11] Rentt
Sorry. Someone's waiting for me in Maalt.
[20:15] Ryuntus
Too bad, then.
[20:18] Ryuntus
Rentt, I won't forget how you
saved the village, and Amiris.
[20:23] Ryuntus
Thank you.
[20:24] Rentt
You're welcome. Be well.
[20:26] Ryuntus
Yes, take care!
[20:28] Amiris
Rentt!
[20:36] Ryuntus
Amiris, what did you...
[20:38] Amiris
I just wanted to thank him, is all!
[20:42] Rentt
Thank me, huh?
[20:43] Rentt
Then I shall gladly accept your thanks.
[20:51] Rentt
Those kidnappers said they didn't
grab anyone but women...
[20:57] Rentt
They seem to have nothing to do with
the kidnappings of new adventurers
[21:00] Rentt
that Sheila talked about...
[21:04] Lorraine
I see. So Ryuntus's sister was saved, then?
[21:08] Rentt
Yes.
[21:09] Rentt
And the other girls are all safe, too.
[21:11] Lorraine
Excellent.
[21:13] Rentt
It's thanks to the magic item you lent me.
[21:16] Lorraine
It's nice to be able to
walk on water, isn't it?
[21:19] Rentt
Yeah.
[21:20] Lorraine
If it was real, I would've loved
to see the Lord of the Lake.
[21:25] Rentt
You were right not to go.
[21:27] Rentt
You had a rush job, right?
[21:30] Lorraine
By the way, Rentt.
[21:34] Lorraine
You stole the heart of another
girl you saved, didn't you?
[21:39] Rentt
Of course not.
[21:41] Rentt
I did get a thank you, though.
[21:44] Lorraine
A thank you, huh?
[21:47] Lorraine
I'm sure she'll...
[21:49] Rentt
She'll forget me before much
time has passed at all.
[21:54] Rentt
That's how it is when you're an adventurer.
[21:59] Lorraine
The gods should punish
you a little, I think.

[00:07] Rentt
One bronze piece for a job payment, huh?
[00:11] Rentt
That basically means working for free,
[00:13] Rentt
but a surprising amount of
adventurers will take it.
[00:16] Rentt
We're not doing this just for the money.
[00:18] Rentt
Sometimes, we'll take jobs to help people.
[00:21] Rentt
Well, the guild wouldn't
take a job request like
[00:26] Rentt
"Defeat the Legendary Lord of the Lake."
[00:29] Sheila
Any jobs catch your eye?
[00:31] Rentt
Sheila?
[00:33] Rentt
Don't worry.
[00:34] Rentt
I'm not going into the Labyrinth
for a while, just like I promised.
[00:37] Sheila
Oh, no... I thought I could help
if you were looking for a quick job.
[00:43] Rentt
Great.
[00:44] Rentt
Is nobody going to take this quest?
[00:47] Sheila
Oh, the one with the single
bronze piece reward?
[00:51] Sheila
It's a guild tradition, so everyone
at least thinks about it.
[00:56] Sheila
But it's pretty difficult...
[00:58] Rentt
Gathering a Dragonblood Flower...
[01:00] Sheila
Yeah.
[01:01] Sheila
They only bloom next to poisonous swamps.
[01:05] Sheila
The story about them is
so wonderful, though...
[01:07] Rentt
A dragon fell in love with a human woman...
[01:11] Rentt
His blood became a bright red flower
called the Dragonblood Flower.
[01:16] Rentt
A rather gruesome story.
[01:20] Sheila
Girls who receive that flower
are said to be loved forever.
[01:25] Rentt
Well, I have heard that story.
[01:29] Rentt
But for this job, they want
it as medicine, right?
[01:31] Sheila
Yes. It's a job from the
children at an orphanage.
[01:36] Sheila
They say they need the Dragonblood Flower
to save someone they care about.
[01:40] Rentt
I see.
[01:43] Sheila
Rentt, are you...
SIGN Dragonblood
Flower
[03:19] Rentt
So this is the place, huh?
[03:21] Rentt
It's more run-down than I expected.
[03:26] Rentt
Oh...
[03:29] Rentt
Oh, right.
[03:30] Rentt
I might be able to use the fluids
from that slime to fix it.
[03:37] Rentt
Well, that kind of worked...
[03:45] Alize
Coming!
[03:48] Alize
I'm sorry. Headmistress
Lillian isn't in right now.
[03:52] Alize
You'll have to come back another time...
[03:56] Rentt
I'm an adventurer. I took
the job at the guild.
[03:59] Alize
Oh, I was sure you were a debt collector.
[04:03] Rentt
I see.
[04:05] Alize
Please, come in.
[04:07] Alize
It's a little cramped, but...
[04:08] Rentt
Thank you.
[04:15] Alize
Everyone, be on your best behavior.
[04:17] Alize
He's an adventurer.
[04:20] Kids
Wow, you're an adventurer?
[04:23] Kids
Is that sword real?
[04:24] Kids
Are you strong?
[04:25] Kids
Why are you dressed so weird?
[04:27] Alize
Hey! I told you all that adventurers
are dangerous barbarians,
[04:32] Alize
so you needed to stay away from them!
[04:34] Kids
Sorry...
[04:37] Alize
Um, I'm sorry...
[04:39] Alize
I didn't mean you specifically.
[04:41] Rentt
No, it actually makes me feel better.
[04:45] Rentt
Adventurers can be the rowdy sort.
[04:48] Rentt
It's only natural to be cautious.
[04:53] Rentt
Listen, everyone.
[04:54] Rentt
You need to stay away from
weird-looking adults.
[04:58] Kids
Okay.
[05:01] Rentt
They seem like good kids.
[05:03] Alize
I apologize.
[05:05] Rentt
It can be dangerous to be too trusting,
[05:07] Rentt
but it just shows they've
had a happy upbringing.
[05:11] Alize
Yes! Headmistress Lillian is a great woman!
[05:15] Alize
I mean, a wonderful lady!
[05:18] Rentt
You can speak normally around me.
[05:20] Alize
But...
[05:22] Rentt
You should be more polite
around adults, yes.
[05:25] Rentt
But I don't mind.
[05:27] Alize
You won't get mad later?
[05:29] Rentt
Of course not.
[05:30] Rentt
My name is Rentt Vivie.
[05:32] Rentt
I'm a Bronze-class adventurer.
[05:34] Alize
Bronze? I was sure the best
we'd get was an Iron-class.
[05:40] Rentt
You know a lot about us.
[05:42] Rentt
Did you make the request?
[05:43] Alize
Yes. My name is Alize.
[05:47] Rentt
Then Alize, let's talk about the job.
[05:50] Rentt
Dragonblood Flowers aren't easy to get.
[05:54] Alize
I know.
[05:56] Alize
You can barely find them at any stores.
[05:58] Alize
And even if you do, they're very expensive.
[06:01] Rentt
But you need one anyway.
[06:03] Alize
Yes.
[06:04] Rentt
I want to know more.
[06:07] Alize
All right. But you'll need to keep our secret.
[06:11] Rentt
Secret?
[06:13] Lilian
I'm sorry I can't get out
of bed to welcome you.
[06:17] Lilian
My name is Lillian June. I'm a priestess
of the Eastern Sky Church.
[06:23] Rentt
I'm Rentt Vivie. An adventurer.
[06:27] Lilian
I'm so glad you're helping to clean
out the orphanage's basement,
[06:31] Lilian
even though we can only
pay such a small amount.
[06:33] Lilian
Thank you, so much.
[06:35] Rentt
Well, it's a good change of pace.
[06:37] Lilian
The basement is small, but
monsters do appear down there,
[06:41] Lilian
so I can't have the children doing it.
[06:44] Alize
Rest, Headmistress!
[06:46] Alize
I'll tell him the rest.
[06:50] Lilian
Thank you, Alize.
[06:56] Alize
Her disease is called Malaccumula.
[07:01] Rentt
Malaccumula?
[07:03] Alize
Yes.
[07:04] Alize
She's a divinity user.
[07:07] Alize
But if your divinity isn't strong,
[07:10] Alize
each time you use it there's a reaction that
causes evil energy to accumulate in the body.
[07:15] Alize
It won't kill her anytime soon, but...
[07:19] Rentt
I didn't know there was such a thing.
[07:21] Alize
We had a healer look at
her, so it has to be that.
[07:25] Alize
The only way to heal it is with the blood
of a holy maiden, or a special medicine.
[07:31] Rentt
I see.
[07:33] Rentt
And you need the Dragonblood Flower
to make this special medicine?
[07:38] Alize
Yes.
[07:39] Rentt
She doesn't know what her
disease is, does she?
[07:42] Alize
She doesn't.
[07:43] Alize
If she knew, she'd have another
priestess take over the orphanage.
[07:50] Rentt
And then she'd leave the orphanage,
[07:53] Rentt
and accept the disease
as the will of heaven...
[08:00] Rentt
Well, we'll need to get the Dragonblood
Flower before that happens, then.
[08:05] Alize
I was sure nobody would take the job...
[08:08] Rentt
You were?
[08:09] Alize
But if that happened, I was going to become
an adventurer and go get it myself!
[08:16] Alize
I've got a little bit of mana, you know.
[08:19] Rentt
But you don't have time to learn
how to be an adventurer...
[08:24] Alize
I can really ask you to do it?
[08:27] Rentt
Yeah. I'll get it for you. I promise.
[08:32] Alize
Thank you, Rentt!
[08:33] Rentt
But first...
[08:36] Rentt
I'll clean up that basement.
[08:52] Rentt
You don't need to follow me.
[08:54] Alize
No, you're fighting monsters, right?
[08:57] Rentt
I don't think it's that fun to watch, but...
[09:01] Rentt
You can't use a sword
in a room this cramped.
[09:05] Rentt
Take it, just in case.
[09:07] Alize
Okay.
[09:10] Rentt
Looks like they're here.
[09:12] Alize
Huh? Really?
[09:17] Rentt
Pretty big, for a puchi suri.
[09:38] Rentt
What?
[09:44] Rentt
It changed color?
[09:46] Rentt
This feeling...
[09:47] Rentt
Don't tell me...
[09:49] Rentt
Spin around three times in a circle.
[10:00] Lorraine
Rentt, what's that chubby little
black rat on your shoulder?
[10:05] Rentt
It joined my party in the
orphanage's basement.
[10:09] Lorraine
You're skipping a lot there.
[10:12] Lorraine
Vampires have the power to
make and control familiars.
[10:17] Lorraine
I didn't know you could do
the same thing, though.
[10:19] Rentt
I guess I can.
[10:21] Lorraine
True. I hadn't actually done any
experiments to see what would happen
[10:24] Lorraine
if I gave your blood to
another creature yet.
[10:27] Rentt
Can I keep him?
[10:28] Lorraine
Sure, if you want.
[10:30] Lorraine
We've already got an undead living here.
[10:33] Lorraine
A rat or two won't change a thing.
[10:38] Lorraine
He'll have to pay rent, though.
[10:41] Rentt
Rent?
[10:42] Lorraine
I want samples of his blood and hair.
[10:45] Lorraine
There's a lot I want to try.
[10:48] Lorraine
And I also want to do an ecology study.
[10:51] Lorraine
What do you eat?
[10:54] Rentt
Hey!
[10:55] Lorraine
I see. Just like your dad, then.
[10:59] Lorraine
I guess my blood is quite popular.
[11:02] Lorraine
Hey, what are you going to call him?
[11:05] Rentt
Blackie, 'cause he's black.
[11:08] Lorraine
You could put a little more thought into it.
[11:10] Lorraine
Fine. I'll name him.
[11:13] Lorraine
How about "Edel"?
[11:17] Lorraine
An excellent name, yes?
[11:18] Lorraine
It means "Noble One" in the ancient tongue.
[11:21] Lorraine
I heard you were the leader
of the other puchi suri.
[11:25] Rentt
He seems satisfied.
[11:27] Lorraine
You can communicate with him?
[11:29] Rentt
I can't speak his language, but I
can kinda tell what he's thinking.
[11:33] Lorraine
From now on, then, you're Edel.
[11:36] Lorraine
And I'm the one who named you.
[11:39] Rentt
Hey, I'm your master, okay?
[11:48] Rentt
Since I became an undead, I stopped
needing sleep almost entirely.
[11:53] Rentt
I thought about never leaving the labyrinth,
[11:56] Rentt
but people would get suspicious of an
adventurer that never took any rest.
[12:03] Rentt
These hours are so incredibly boring...
[12:09] Rentt
Come in.
[12:13] Lorraine
You're leaving early in the morning, right?
[12:15] Lorraine
Why not fill your belly, first?
[12:21] Rentt
I wonder if it's a sign it'll snow today...
[12:23] Lorraine
Don't be ridiculous.
[12:25] Lorraine
I can cook too, you know.
[12:28] Rentt
I do know.
[12:30] Lorraine
Then you know how dangerous the
Tarasque Swamp is too, then.
[12:34] Rentt
How did you know where I'm going?
[12:37] Rentt
Well, I guess you would.
[12:40] Lorraine
Of course I do.
[12:41] Lorraine
That's the only swamp around here where
you can find a Dragonblood Flower.
[12:45] Rentt
Yeah.
[12:47] Lorraine
Are you going alone?
[12:48] Rentt
If I go alone, I won't have
to worry about the poison.
[12:52] Lorraine
There's Tarasque there. A type of wyvern.
[12:54] Lorraine
Even Bronze-class adventurers
would take a party to go there.
[12:57] Rentt
I'm not going to fight.
[12:58] Lorraine
What?
[13:00] Rentt
I bought this for cheap at a roadside stall.
[13:02] Lorraine
Holy water?
[13:04] Lorraine
Yes, they do say you can keep Tarasque
away by using holy water, but...
[13:10] Lorraine
It doesn't always work.
[13:12] Rentt
Well, it'll work out.
[13:15] Lorraine
Listen, you...
[13:17] Rentt
It would be a waste to let this get cold.
[13:19] Rentt
I'll eat it while it's still hot.
[13:25] Lorraine
Is it good?
[13:27] Rentt
Yeah.
[13:28] Rentt
I haven't enjoyed normal food
this much in a long time.
[13:33] Lorraine
I put a drop of my blood in it.
[13:36] Rentt
So that's why...
[13:39] Lorraine
Like it?
[13:41] Rentt
Yeah.
[13:43] Lorraine
I'll make you another
batch when you get back.
[13:56] Man
We're here, mister.
[13:58] Rentt
Thanks.
[14:05] Man
This is as far as I can take you.
[14:07] Man
I'll come and get you this evening.
[14:10] Rentt
Thanks.
[14:16] Rentt
The poison doesn't bother you?
[14:20] Rentt
Well, I can purify it with
my divinity if I have to.
[14:24] Rentt
It'll be fine.
[14:26] Rentt
The Tarasque Swamp.
[14:28] Rentt
It has another name, but nobody uses it.
[14:33] Rentt
There are rare animals and plants
that can only be found here,
[14:37] Rentt
so it's been made at least passable.
[14:40] Rentt
Nobody wants to stick their
foot into a poison swamp.
[14:51] Rentt
Monsters found in the wild are stronger
than the ones in the labyrinth.
[14:56] Rentt
That's because they use weapons,
or know how to fight in groups.
[15:00] Rentt
They're tough opponents, but
now I'm strong enough to...
[15:10] Rentt
Easily defeat a few goblins.
[15:16] Rentt
Next time, you work, too.
[15:19] Rentt
You don't think that you're the master
in this relationship, do you?
[15:25] Rentt
Sheesh...
[15:29] Rentt
It sure is handy being undead, though!
[15:33] Rentt
I have poison resistance, for one thing.
[15:34] Rentt
If I could just do something
about my appearance,
[15:36] Rentt
I might be willing to
stay like this forever!
[15:39] Rentt
I could probably never get married, though.
[15:45] Rentt
He jumped and let me fall, the bastard.
[15:52] Rentt
I've got some horrible luck today.
[16:03] Rentt
I can't let my guard down for a moment.
[16:13] Rentt
Are all vampire familiars like this?
[16:18] Sheila
Thank you for the meal.
[16:20] Sheila
It was delicious.
[16:22] Lorraine
You liked it?
[16:24] Lorraine
Rentt certainly enjoyed it.
[16:26] Sheila
But isn't Rentt...
[16:29] Lorraine
I mixed my blood in with it.
[16:33] Lorraine
Don't worry. Just in his portion.
[16:38] Lorraine
Anyway, I'm surprised the guild's already
aware of what happened at Tottsu village.
[16:43] Sheila
We had to help transport the criminals.
[16:46] Sheila
The villagers were very grateful
to the adventurer who helped them.
[16:51] Sheila
They refused to say his name no matter
how many times we asked, though.
[16:56] Lorraine
So you came to talk to him directly?
[16:59] Sheila
I assume he wouldn't want to
talk about it at the guild...
[17:02] Lorraine
Knowing Rentt, he assumed that even
if he was the hero of that story,
[17:06] Lorraine
any association of him and the word "kidnapping"
would just make people more suspicious.
[17:11] Lorraine
He can sometimes do things
you'd never expect him to,
[17:14] Lorraine
but he does know how to
think things through.
[17:17] Sheila
You know him well.
[17:19] Lorraine
I've known him a long time, after all.
[17:22] Sheila
Then do you know...?
[17:25] Lorraine
Know what?
[17:28] Sheila
Why becoming a Mythril-class
adventurer is so important to him.
[17:37] Lorraine
Nope.
[17:39] Lorraine
I've never heard him talk
about that, actually.
[17:42] Sheila
You haven't?
[17:44] Lorraine
I've been told that adventurers don't
ask each other about their pasts.
[17:49] Lorraine
Part of it is that I don't
want to get too nosy, but...
[17:52] Lorraine
you know how he is.
[17:55] Sheila
You don't worry?
[17:57] Sheila
Even with the job he's on today...
he might have to fight a Tarasque.
[18:01] Lorraine
What a strange thing to say.
[18:03] Lorraine
The guild puts a lot of work into
making sure adventurers only take jobs
[18:07] Lorraine
appropriate for their strength, right?
[18:08] Sheila
Of course. We judged him strong enough
for the task before giving it to him.
[18:14] Lorraine
Then what's the problem?
[18:17] Lorraine
I'll defer to the opinion of
our talented guild staff.
[18:22] Lorraine
And what's more...
[18:24] Lorraine
Even if something does happen...
[18:27] Lorraine
an adventurer always finds a way, right?
[18:32] Rentt
Damn it! I should've known that
holy water was too cheap to work!
[18:38] Rentt
A dead end...
[18:43] Rentt
I'll have to fight, huh?
[18:56] Rentt
Too bad.
[18:58] Rentt
Poison won't work on me.
[19:01] Rentt
I don't think I can defeat you
with just my mana, either.
[19:17] Rentt
It didn't work, huh?
[19:21] Rentt
That's not good.
[19:24] Rentt
Edel!
[19:29] Rentt
Is that divinity? Is he using my power?
[19:37] Rentt
Edel!
[19:48] Rentt
Are you okay?
[19:51] Rentt
Don't use my divinity without my okay.
[19:53] Rentt
That did give me a good hint, though.
[20:34] Rentt
I see. A Tarasque's
weakness is divinity.
[20:39] Rentt
Yeah. You helped, too.
[20:43] Rentt
But I can't field dress it here.
Not when it's this big...
[20:56] Rentt
There we go.
[21:03] Rentt
I've got bad luck. That's
one thing I'm sure of.
[21:07] Rentt
I was pretty sure I'd have
to fight a Tarasque.
[21:11] Rentt
Thanks to him, though,
I've learned how to do it.
[21:16] Rentt
I can find a lot of rare materials here, too.
[21:19] Rentt
I'll come back soon.
[21:31] Rentt
Are these all Dragonblood flowers?
[21:35] Rentt
Their power is purifying this whole area.
[21:41] Rentt
It's safe to take a few more
than I came for, I'm sure.
[21:53] Isaac
Oh my. I'm surprised to
see someone else here.

Oh my. I'm surprised to

[00:09] Rentt
You by yourself?
[00:11] Isaac
Yes.
[00:12] Rentt
The Tarasque Swamp isn't a
place for a normal person...
[00:16] Rentt
Particularly not alone.
[00:19] Isaac
You seem to be implying you're not normal.
[00:24] Isaac
I simply possess a magic
item that nullifies poison,
[00:28] Isaac
and holy water that drives Tarasques away,
[00:31] Isaac
as well as an accurate map.
[00:35] Isaac
I'm after the Dragonblood flowers.
[00:38] Isaac
You don't mind if I take some, do you?
[00:41] Rentt
Sure.
[00:49] Rentt
Yeah, I'm surely the one who's not normal.
SIGN A Strange Man
and a Strange Job
[02:34] Rentt
Is that all you need?
[02:37] Isaac
Yes.
[02:38] Isaac
My mistress wants the
Dragonblood flower itself.
[02:44] Isaac
The medicine you make from
these will last a while,
[02:47] Isaac
but the flowers themselves won't
if they're plucked, right?
[02:50] Rentt
Yes.
[02:52] Rentt
I'm sorry for prying, but
is your mistress badly ill?
[02:57] Isaac
Yes, I suppose so.
[02:58] Isaac
I'd like to stay by their side,
taking care of them.
[03:02] Rentt
I know this doesn't help, but...
[03:05] Rentt
I hope they get better soon.
[03:07] Isaac
Thank you.
[03:10] Isaac
I and my mistress were fortunate I
was able to make your acquaintance.
[03:16] Isaac
I was just looking for someone
[03:18] Isaac
who could bring us Dragonblood
flowers at regular intervals.
[03:23] Isaac
It's silly to be asking this now,
but you're an adventurer, aren't you?
[03:27] Rentt
I'm Rentt Vivie. A
Bronze-class adventurer.
[03:31] Isaac
Bronze-class?
[03:33] Rentt
Have you changed your mind?
[03:35] Isaac
Not at all.
[03:37] Isaac
I'm certain you're strong enough.
[03:39] Isaac
If the pay and conditions are to your liking,
[03:43] Isaac
I would appreciate it if you would accept.
[03:48] Rentt
All right.
[03:49] Isaac
We'll make the arrangements
after our return, then.
[03:52] Isaac
Oh, I haven't introduced myself.
[03:55] Isaac
I'm Isaac Hart.
[03:58] Isaac
As for my mistress...
[04:00] Isaac
I'll introduce you after the
arrangements are finalized.
[04:08] Man
I didn't realize you were so strong.
[04:11] Man
Not many people come back
from that swamp unharmed.
[04:16] Rentt
Actually, this mask is just
a way to hide my identity.
[04:21] Rentt
I'm actually a Mythril-class adventurer.
[04:26] Man
Make sure you hire me next time!
[04:28] Man
I'll give you a discount!
[04:33] Sheila
Rentt!
[04:35] Rentt
I'd like to return this magic bag and
hire someone to butcher a monster.
[04:39] Sheila
Butcher...?
[04:41] Sheila
Did you defeat one?
[04:49] Rentt
There's a lot.
[04:51] Sheila
Okay.
[04:52] Sheila
I'll show you to the Butcher's, then.
[04:57] Rentt
A monster doesn't just drop magic stones.
[04:59] Rentt
Their bodies can be butchered to
provide many different materials.
[05:02] Rentt
I learned how to do the basics myself when I
was learning to be a hunter in the village,
[05:05] Rentt
but for things I can't handle, I pay
the money to hire a specialist.
[05:13] Sheila
Dario!
[05:16] Dario
Hey!
[05:18] Dario
What's up?
[05:19] Sheila
Rentt here has brought
something unusual for us.
[05:25] Sheila
A Tarasque!
[05:27] Dario
A Tarasque?
[05:31] Dario
Okay, bring it out!
[05:33] Sheila
Will Edel be okay?
[05:36] Rentt
Edel's resistant to poison.
[05:48] Dario
It's big.
[05:51] Dario
And in good shape, too.
[05:54] Dario
Not a single wound on the shell.
[05:56] Dario
That's rare.
[05:57] Rentt
Is it?
[05:59] Dario
Yes.
[06:00] Dario
The normal way to fight
one of these is to attack
[06:02] Dario
from outside the range of
its poison to weaken it.
[06:04] Dario
So the shell always gets damaged.
[06:08] Rentt
I see.
[06:09] Dario
You killed it in basically
a single hit, didn't you?
[06:13] Sheila
A single hit?
[06:15] Rentt
I just didn't have time
to land multiple hits.
[06:18] Dario
Don't be so humble!
[06:20] Dario
I haven't seen a Tarasque
of this quality in ages.
[06:24] Rentt
Will it be worth a lot?
[06:26] Dario
Of course.
[06:28] Rentt
Can I ask you to handle it?
[06:30] Dario
Yes.
[06:31] Dario
Look forward to it.
[06:33] Rentt
Thanks.
[06:38] Rentt
I guess I'll go to the orphanage tomorrow.
[06:42] Rentt
Thanks for staying out so late with me.
[06:44] Sheila
Not at all.
[06:45] Sheila
Anyway, Rentt, you've gotten
a lot stronger, haven't you?
[06:50] Rentt
Have I?
[06:52] Sheila
You defeated that huge
Tarasque all by yourself!
[06:55] Sheila
You're at the high end of Bronze...
[06:57] Sheila
No, you could easily be Silver!
[07:00] Sheila
You should remember that.
[07:10] Rentt
I do feel stronger, but...
[07:13] Rentt
But saying that I, myself, have
gotten stronger feels weird.
[07:21] Rentt
Isaac doesn't seem to be an adventurer,
[07:23] Rentt
but he's probably got the strength of a
Silver-class, or probably close to Gold.
[07:28] Rentt
I just took advantage of my undead body.
[07:34] Rentt
This strength is something I got
just by becoming a monster.
[07:41] Rentt
Of course, I want to go back to being human.
[07:44] Rentt
But without this power, I'll go
back to who I was then, right?
[07:51] Rentt
10 years... 10 years!
[07:54] Rentt
With no talent, no improvement...
[07:57] Rentt
Where putting in effort each
day was all I could do...
[08:01] Rentt
Could I go back to that and
still try to become Mythril?
[08:17] Rentt
This is fine. I've got just the thing.
[08:22] Rentt
Perfectly done.
[08:24] Alize
What's perfectly done?
[08:27] Rentt
The job.
[08:29] Alize
Already?!
[08:34] Alize
This is it...
[08:35] Alize
I've never seen it before.
[08:37] Alize
It's beautiful!
[08:39] Norman
This is wonderful.
[08:41] Norman
It's rare to see one that's
been prepared so well.
[08:45] Rentt
Is it?
[08:46] Rentt
The only adventurers who go to the Tarasque
swamp are of fairly high rank, right?
[08:51] Rentt
They should all know how
to properly prepare herbs.
[08:54] Norman
Well, just because of the
kind of place it is,
[08:56] Norman
there's not a lot of time
to do things properly.
[08:58] Norman
Sometimes you can get attacked
by a Tarasque on your way out.
[09:02] Umberto
You must be a powerful adventurer.
[09:05] Umberto
I'm Umberto, the healer.
[09:08] Umberto
And this is...
[09:09] Normal
Norman. An herbalist.
[09:11] Normal
Wow, with something of this quality
[09:14] Normal
I can make a medicine to treat
Malaccumula really quickly.
[09:17] Alize
Really?
[09:18] Norman
Yes. If there's any left over, can I use it?
[09:23] Norman
There are people who need it.
[09:24] Alize
Of course. I don't mind.
[09:26] Rentt
Do you want more?
[09:29] Umberto
Of course...
[09:31] Norman
I'd be lying if I said I didn't.
[09:35] Rentt
Is this enough?
[09:37] Rentt
No need to pay me. Just put it to good use.
[09:41] Umberto
You sure? This would be
worth a lot of money.
[09:45] Rentt
It's nice to just help
people, once in a while.
[09:47] Norman
Thank you. This is wonderful.
[09:50] Norman
I'll be able to save so
many lives with these...
[09:54] Umberto
We can't repay you right now,
[09:56] Umberto
but if you need something
in the future, tell us.
[09:59] Rentt
I will.
[10:10] Alize
And there we go.
[10:12] Alize
This completes the job.
[10:15] Rentt
Yeah.
[10:17] Alize
Here you go.
[10:18] Rentt
Thank you.
[10:19] Alize
No...
[10:20] Alize
I'm the one who has to thank you.
[10:24] Alize
I can't thank you enough!
[10:27] Alize
I was going to become an adventurer and
get it myself if nobody took the job...
[10:32] Alize
But I don't think that would've worked.
[10:34] Rentt
You no longer want to be an adventurer?
[10:39] Alize
I actually want to be one even more.
[10:42] Alize
Rentt...
[10:43] Alize
I want to be an adventurer like you!
[10:47] Alize
One who can help people!
[10:51] Rentt
Like me?
[10:52] Alize
Thank you so much!
[10:54] Alize
I can't do anything to thank you, but if...
[10:59] Alize
There's nothing I can do
to help you, is there?
[11:03] Rentt
That's not true.
[11:05] Rentt
There are times when I need help, too.
[11:09] Rentt
When that happens, I'll come to you.
[11:13] Alize
Great! You'd better!
[11:16] Rentt
Sure.
[11:19] Rentt
Was everything okay?
[11:22] Rentt
Alize, you said there were sometimes
small monsters in the basement, right?
[11:27] Alize
Yes. That's right.
[11:29] Rentt
Edel's old gang will protect you.
[11:32] Alize
Gang... Of puchi suri?
[11:36] Alize
That's great!
[11:38] Alize
Thank you, Edel!
[11:41] Alize
That's so great...
[11:43] Alize
I wonder if I'll be able to tame monsters
like this when I become an adventurer.
[11:48] Rentt
Anyway, if you want to be an adventurer,
you should start training early.
[11:53] Alize
Training?
[11:54] Rentt
The guild holds classes.
[11:57] Rentt
And I can train you too, when I have time.
[12:00] Alize
Really?
[12:01] Rentt
If you have mana, you should
learn to use magic, too.
[12:06] Alize
But I don't have money...
[12:09] Alize
It's expensive to train with a sword,
[12:11] Alize
but training to learn magic
costs even more, right?
[12:16] Rentt
I've got a friend who's not
doing anything with her time.
[12:19] Rentt
Don't worry about it.
[12:20] Alize
That won't do!
[12:22] Alize
I can't count on you for that much.
[12:24] Rentt
Then I'll lend you the
money, with no interest.
[12:28] Rentt
When you become an adventurer and
start earning money, pay me back.
[12:36] Alize
I'll pay it back with interest.
[12:38] Rentt
Fine.
[12:40] Rentt
We have a deal, then.
[12:46] Alize
I look forward to doing
business with you, Rentt!
[12:51] Lorraine
I don't mind teaching her.
[12:54] Lorraine
There are indeed times when
I'm "not doing anything."
[13:00] Lorraine
As you say.
[13:02] Rentt
Sorry... I meant when you're free.
[13:06] Lorraine
You should be careful with your words.
[13:09] Lorraine
You don't understand how young girls feel.
[13:15] Rentt
Thanks for the warning.
[13:18] Rentt
I have very few interactions
with young girls, though.
[13:22] Lorraine
Come on, that's not true.
[13:25] Lorraine
There's a young girl you know quite well.
[13:29] Lorraine
See?
[13:32] Rentt
Where?
[13:34] Lorraine
I just remembered about this extremely
powerful spell I just developed...
[13:40] Rentt
L-Lorraine?
[13:42] Lorraine
Let's see just how much that
undead body of yours can take!
[13:47] Rentt
Wait! You're young!
[13:49] Rentt
You're very young, Lorraine!
[13:51] Rentt
Your skin is as fair as driven snow...
[13:54] Rentt
And your statuesque figure...
[13:58] Rentt
Even the water fairies created
by the goddess of beauty
[14:02] Rentt
as the physical manifestation of
her virtue would bow their heads
[14:06] Rentt
at the sight of your gorgeous face!
[14:08] Rentt
You are the very picture of a young
girl in every way, Lorraine!
[14:14] Lorraine
Where the hell did you
learn to talk like that?
[14:20] Lorraine
Don't tell me you say that
to every girl you meet.
[14:24] Rentt
Of course I don't!
[14:26] Rentt
I mean...
[14:28] Rentt
I just said what I was thinking.
[14:33] Lorraine
You'd like a little more to eat, right?
[14:36] Rentt
Uh...
[14:36] Lorraine
I'll bring you something.
[14:40] Lorraine
I split the pots between the one
with blood and the one without.
[14:52] Lorraine
I think that got to me a little...
[15:05] Rentt
Why am I the only one working
when I'm the master?
[15:10] Sheila
Rentt!
[15:11] Rentt
Morning!
[15:12] Sheila
Can we talk?
[15:14] Sheila
This way.
[15:19] Rentt
What's this about?
[15:21] Sheila
Um, Rentt, did you know anyone
in the Latour household?
[15:26] Rentt
The Latour household?
[15:28] Sheila
You don't?
[15:30] Rentt
I've never heard the name.
[15:32] Sheila
There's actually a job
requesting you specifically.
[15:39] Rentt
Oh, the one from Isaac?
[15:41] Sheila
So you do know them?
[15:45] Rentt
No...
[15:48] Rentt
I just know a man who I assume is a
servant of this Latour Household.
[15:54] Rentt
Is the family that famous?
[15:57] Rentt
I'd like to think I know most of
what there is to know about Maalt.
[16:01] Sheila
I know little about them, myself.
[16:04] Sheila
They're not nobles, but they're a very old
house with a lot of influence over Maalt.
[16:11] Sheila
Someone of my lowly station
wouldn't be told any more.
[16:16] Rentt
So they're very secretive.
[16:19] Sheila
Each generation's guild master
is told to be very careful
[16:24] Sheila
not to offend the Latour household.
[16:27] Sheila
Rentt, if you're going to live here in Maalt,
[16:30] Sheila
you absolutely cannot refuse
a request from the Latours.
[16:34] Rentt
I have no intention of refusing.
[16:36] Sheila
But... is it okay?
[16:40] Sheila
Um... you're...
[16:43] Rentt
If they find out I'm a
monster, they'll kill me.
[16:47] Sheila
It's going to be hard.
[16:50] Rentt
No, when I met Isaac, he didn't
seem to care about my appearance.
[16:56] Rentt
If it was an issue, he wouldn't
have made the request at all.
[17:01] Sheila
All right.
[17:02] Sheila
But if there's any problem at all, tell me.
[17:05] Rentt
Of course. I'll start
by paying them a visit.
[17:11] Umberto
We've come to talk about
your condition today.
[17:17] Umberto
You're sick with Malaccumula.
[17:23] Lilian
So it's as I thought.
[17:26] Lilian
I'll need to tell the Church
to send a replacement.
[17:32] Norman
There's no need.
[17:35] Lilian
What's this?
[17:37] Norman
A medicine made from Dragonblood flower.
[17:41] Norman
Take one pill a day.
[17:43] Norman
Little by little, it will dissolve
the foulness building within you.
[17:48] Lilian
I appreciate it, but this
is so expensive, and I...
[17:52] Alize
Headmistress Lilian, you don't
need to worry about the money!
[17:57] Alize
So please...
[17:59] Alize
Please get better soon!
[18:03] Lilian
Alize...
[18:05] Lilian
Umberto, don't tell me
you got this flower...
[18:09] Umberto
I did used to be an adventurer, but
somebody like me could never do that.
[18:13] Norman
An adventurer took the job from Alize,
for the price of one bronze piece.
[18:22] Lilian
I see...
[18:24] Lilian
It was the one who came
here that day, wasn't it?
[18:44] Rentt
Excuse me... is Isaac in?
[18:47] Guard
Yes. He's in the mansion.
[18:50] Guard
Please, go inside.
[18:53] Rentt
It looks like there's a maze...
[18:55] Guard
Yes. Be careful.
[18:58] Rentt
Even if I was told to come here for a job?
[19:02] Guard
Yes.
[19:06] Rentt
Do maps cost money?
[19:08] Guard
There'd be no point in having one.
[19:12] Guard
A special magic item was
used to make this garden.
[19:16] Guard
The path changes.
[19:18] Rentt
There's an item that can do that?
[19:20] Rentt
No... even if it exists, that's incredible!
[19:24] Guard
The heads of the Latour family have
always collected magic items.
[19:28] Guard
I'm told that this item was
a part of their collection.
[19:33] Rentt
I don't like the fact that I have to
make it past one of their hobbies.
[19:38] Guard
Even if I told you there's a reward?
[19:41] Rentt
A reward?
[19:43] Guard
Those who make it through the
maze and reach the mansion
[19:47] Guard
can receive a magic item from
the head of the household.
[19:50] Rentt
Really?
[19:52] Guard
The entrance to the maze is only opened
rarely, at the whim of the head of household.
[19:57] Guard
I'm sure that's the case today.
[20:01] Rentt
Thanks for telling me.
[20:03] Rentt
One more thing...
[20:05] Rentt
I'd like to ask something from someone who
I assume has completed the maze himself.
[20:09] Guard
Yes?
[20:10] Rentt
Any advice?
[20:13] Guard
Let's see...
[20:16] Guard
The sun won't help you. I suppose
that's enough of a hint.
[20:23] Rentt
The sun?
[20:27] Rentt
Thank you.
[20:35] Rentt
They're giving me a magic item.
[20:37] Rentt
Of course I'm going to try it.
[20:42] Rentt
Even this cursed mask is a magic item...
[20:45] Rentt
And it wouldn't be cheap
if I bought it normally.
[20:47] Rentt
If I can get a powerful magic item...
[20:52] Rentt
I need money and equipment if I'm
going to become Mythril-class, too!
[21:25] Rentt
No luck, huh?
[21:27] Rentt
Even though a magic item made this place,
I suppose it won't work since it's not a labyrinth.
[21:32] Rentt
That's fine. I've got a
good sense of direction.
[21:36] Rentt
I can draw a mental map that's more
than enough for a maze of this size...
[21:59] Rentt
I'm totally lost...

[00:56] Rentt
This place is incredible...
[01:01] Rentt
I like to think I have a good
sense of direction, but...
[01:08] (Flashback) Guard
Hmm...
[01:11] (Flashback) Guard
The sun won't help you. I suppose
that's enough of a hint.
[01:16] Rentt
There are very few places in the
labyrinths where you can see the sun.
[01:20] Rentt
Even without the sun to
guide them, an adventurer
[01:22] Rentt
can draw a mental map to guide them.
[01:25] Rentt
But if the map in my head was right, I
would've made it to the exit a long time ago...
[01:39] Rentt
This isn't the exit, I suppose.
[01:49] Laura
Will you give up?
[01:52] Rentt
No, I'm going to keep
trying a little longer.
[01:56] Rentt
Or is that not okay?
[01:58] Laura
Head that way, then.
[02:00] Laura
Be warned, though, that the maze
will continue for a while.
[02:04] Laura
If you'd like to take a break, why
don't you join me for a spot of tea?
[02:12] Rentt
I'll do that, then.
SIGN The Garden
Labyrinth
[03:48] Rentt
I assume she's a daughter
of the Latour family, then?
[03:52] Rentt
The teapot she's using is a
magic item, as well, I think...
[03:57] Rentt
I'm sorry, but did you forget
to put in the tea leaves?
[04:05] Laura
This teapot can recreate the taste of any
tea that it's ever been used to brew.
[04:11] Rentt
That's an incredible item.
Where did you get it?
[04:15] Laura
There are two types of magic items:
ones from the labyrinths,
[04:18] Laura
and those made by craftsmen
to imitate the former.
[04:21] Laura
This one was discovered 200
years ago in the labyrinths.
[04:25] Laura
I believe it was worth around 300 platinum.
[04:30] Rentt
Platinum?
[04:32] Rentt
You could live a lifetime off of just one
platinum coin and have money left over!
[04:35] Rentt
And it cost 300 of them?
[04:37] Rentt
The Latour family is a lot wealthier
than most nobles, then...
[04:40] Laura
It's more than worth it.
[04:43] Laura
Adventurers risked their lives
in the labyrinths to find it.
[04:48] Rentt
You can risk your life in the labyrinths
[04:50] Rentt
and only end up with a bunch
of weird junk, though, too.
[04:57] Rentt
This is good!
[04:58] Laura
I'm glad you like it.
[05:01] Laura
I've recreated a tea I had long ago,
the one whose taste I liked best.
[05:05] Rentt
I see...
[05:07] Rentt
I've never had tea this good.
[05:11] Laura
This may be rude, but is that
mask also a magic item?
[05:15] Rentt
Yeah...
[05:16] Laura
I knew it!
[05:18] Laura
Where did you get it?
[05:21] Rentt
Someone I know bought it from
a street stall in Maalt.
[05:24] Rentt
And for three bronze.
[05:27] Laura
I had no idea there was something so
fascinating to be found in Maalt.
[05:30] Laura
I'm sorry to ask, but...
[05:34] Laura
Would you be willing to part with it?
[05:36] Rentt
I heard the Latours collect magic items.
[05:40] Rentt
Does she collect them, too?
[05:43] Laura
I'm sorry. It's a valuable item, yes?
[05:47] Laura
Of course, I'm more than willing
to pay what it's worth.
[05:51] Rentt
I'd love to sell it!
[05:52] Rentt
If I could only take it off...
[05:54] Rentt
But it's only thanks to this mask
that nobody can see I'm undead.
[06:01] Rentt
I'm sorry.
[06:02] Rentt
I can't do that.
[06:04] Laura
No, I'm sure it must be an item
of great importance to you.
[06:09] Laura
It was rude to ask.
[06:12] Rentt
No, don't worry about it.
[06:17] Rentt
Thank you for the tea.
[06:20] Laura
Take care, then.
[06:22] Rentt
Yeah, thanks.
[06:24] Laura
I'll give you a hint.
[06:28] Rentt
A hint?
[06:30] Laura
You should avoid looking
at the sun, perhaps.
[06:33] Rentt
The sun, again?
[06:35] Rentt
I'll remember that.
[06:46] Rentt
There's definitely some trick to this maze.
[06:53] Rentt
The sun, huh?
[07:04] Rentt
Don't tell me...
[07:09] Rentt
Teleportation?
[07:11] Rentt
Can you go back?
[07:13] Rentt
No, there might be one-way teleporters.
[07:17] Rentt
I'm not even in a labyrinth... So
how could there be traps like this?
[07:22] Rentt
Which means...
[07:24] Rentt
I'm starting over?
[07:41] Rentt
I'm finally out.
[07:44] Laura
Congratulations.
[07:47] Laura
It seems you found the secret of the maze.
[07:51] Rentt
It's thanks to the advice
a certain someone gave me.
[07:55] Laura
I'm Laura Latour, the head
of the Latour family.
[08:00] Laura
A pleasure to make your acquaintance.
[08:03] Rentt
She's the head of the family?
[08:05] Rentt
I'm Rentt Vivie. A Bronze-class adventurer.
[08:09] Rentt
I came to discuss a job.
[08:12] Rentt
And...
[08:14] Rentt
I completed the maze.
[08:18] Laura
Indeed you did.
[08:19] Laura
Very few are capable of doing so.
[08:23] Rentt
Do I get a reward, too?
[08:26] Laura
Of course you do.
[08:30] Laura
Please choose any magic item you want
from the Latour Family's collection.
[08:36] Rentt
Then can you give me the
one that made that maze?
[08:40] Laura
I'm sorry. I can't do that.
[08:45] Rentt
I was kidding.
[08:46] Laura
Oh my.
[08:47] Rentt
You made me walk forever in that labyrinth.
[08:51] Rentt
It was my way of getting back at you.
[08:53] Laura
You're a fascinating man.
[08:58] Isaac
Right this way.
[09:13] Rentt
Magic items made by human
hands are more consistently reliable.
[09:18] Rentt
But we can still only make the
simplest items, like these lights.
[09:24] Laura
They're filled with mystery.
[09:26] Laura
Just like the labyrinths.
[09:34] Laura
Light.
[09:40] Rentt
Wow.
[09:42] Rentt
These are all magic items?
[09:44] Laura
Yes. It was very difficult to get
them all cleaned up and organized.
[09:47] Rentt
No, that's not what I
meant... well, kind of.
[09:53] Laura
How are all the labyrinths around
the world born? Why do they exist?
[09:59] Laura
No one has ever found an answer.
[10:04] Laura
The magic items are the same.
[10:07] Laura
Just as you said, some of them are junk
that we have little idea how to use.
[10:15] Rentt
What is this item?
[10:18] Laura
I don't know.
[10:19] Laura
If you throw it, it will
continue to bounce forever.
[10:23] Rentt
Why did you collect all this stuff?
[10:25] Laura
Because I wanted it.
[10:27] Laura
That's what it means to
be an obsessive collector.
[10:31] Rentt
I see.
[10:32] Rentt
And this?
[10:34] Laura
Have you ever seen the airships
they have in the west?
[10:39] Laura
They're huge, and carry people
with the power of steam.
[10:44] Rentt
I've heard rumors.
[10:46] Laura
It's a model of one of them.
It's powered by mana.
[10:51] Laura
You can control it with this.
[11:02] Laura
Is it fun?
[11:03] Rentt
Yes. I want it.
[11:05] Laura
Then will you choose this?
[11:09] Rentt
I want it, but it's a toy, right?
[11:13] Rentt
The young boy inside me wants it, but...
[11:18] Rentt
The grown up inside me wants
something more useful.
[11:23] Laura
You seem hesitant.
[11:25] Laura
Rentt, focus your mind on the model.
[11:34] Rentt
What is this?
[11:36] Laura
Amazing, is it not?
[11:38] Laura
The controller can transfer
their mind into the model.
[11:41] Rentt
Yes, that's amazing...
[11:44] Rentt
But it burns a lot of mana.
[11:46] Laura
I call it a "model", for
lack of a better term,
[11:49] Laura
but this was discovered in the labyrinths.
[11:52] Rentt
Which means...
[11:53] Laura
Yes. The airships are
modeled after this item.
[11:58] Laura
Though they could never
figure out what made it fly,
[12:01] Laura
and were forced to turn to other means.
[12:04] Rentt
I thought it was just a toy...
[12:07] Rentt
But it would be very helpful for scouting.
[12:10] Laura
Yes.
[12:11] Laura
But because of the way it uses mana,
you can't send it that far ahead.
[12:16] Rentt
True.
[12:17] Rentt
It couldn't go more than a
few minutes with my magic.
[12:21] Laura
What will you do?
[12:23] Rentt
I'll think about it.
[12:25] Laura
Take your time, then.
[12:27] Rentt
I will.
[12:31] Rentt
There's a lot ahead too, isn't there?
[12:36] Rentt
Is this a magic item as well?
[12:38] Laura
Yes. It lights up when something approaches.
[12:41] Rentt
Anything?
[12:43] Laura
Yes. It will react even to a rat.
[12:45] Rentt
Sounds useful, but I don't know
if it actually would be...
[12:50] Rentt
This seems to be a normal painting.
[12:55] Laura
Press the button on the frame.
[12:59] Rentt
This?
[13:07] Laura
Isn't it intriguing?
[13:09] Laura
What do you think those voices are?
[13:12] Rentt
Is she just enjoying watching my reactions?
[13:19] Laura
Rentt, be careful!
[13:24] Laura
Isaac, where's the shutdown device?
[13:27] Isaac
We put it somewhere else, just to be safe.
[13:42] Rentt
You're kidding me...
[13:52] Rentt
Why is there a golem here?
[14:04] Rentt
Even I couldn't take a
hit from this thing...
[14:06] Laura
Isaac, hurry!
[14:08] Isaac
Yes, of course.
[14:09] Isaac
Rentt, just try and hang
in there for a while!
[14:12] Isaac
It should be around here...
[14:13] Rentt
It's important to keep things organized.
[14:21] Rentt
Hey, how long can a golem stay powered?
[14:24] Rentt
It only took a little bit of my mana!
[14:27] Isaac
It only used your mana to activate!
[14:30] Laura
That golem absorbs the mana and inorganic
matter in its surroundings to become stronger.
[14:39] Rentt
Can I hurt it a little?
[14:40] Laura
I don't mind.
[14:42] Laura
But you won't be able
to defeat it in battle.
[14:44] Rentt
I'm not planning on beating it.
[14:59] (Flashback) Lorraine
Listen to me, Rentt.
[15:00] (Flashback) Lorraine
Golems have a word in a magical tongue
on their forehead that means "truth."
[15:05] (Flashback) Lorraine
You can add a single character
to change that word to "death,"
[15:10] (Flashback) Lorraine
which will cause it to collapse.
[15:13] Rentt
There's nothing on its forehead at all!
[15:21] (Flashback) Lorraine
At least, that's how they did
it in the very early days.
[15:24] (Flashback) Lorraine
Normally they come with an
external shutdown device.
[15:27] (Flashback) Rentt
And if it doesn't have one?
[15:28] (Flashback) Laura
Then you have to run, or defeat it.
[15:32] Rentt
Hey, have you found that shutdown device yet?
[15:34] Isaac
I'm pretty sure it was on this shelf...
[15:39] Rentt
Well, I can't keep this up any longer.
[15:46] Rentt
I didn't want to show anyone this
technique, but... I have no choice!
[15:51] Rentt
Mana-Spirit Fusion will do it!
[16:01] Laura
Halt.
[16:07] Rentt
So they made it in time...
[16:10] Isaac
I'm so sorry! Are you hurt?
[16:13] Laura
I'm fine.
[16:14] Isaac
My failure to properly manage our
magic items has put you in danger.
[16:19] Laura
No, as your master, it's my fault.
[16:23] Rentt
No, it's my fault for carelessly
touching a magic item.
[16:28] Rentt
More importantly...
[16:30] Rentt
They're not gonna ask me
to pay for it, are they?
[16:33] Laura
I'll have the servants clean this up later.
[16:38] Laura
Now, what magic item will you choose?
[16:41] Rentt
If you don't mind, I'd like to continue.
[16:51] Rentt
What's that?
[16:54] Laura
Materials taken from monsters.
[16:57] Laura
They're not magic items, but they can be used to make medicine and weapons.
[17:03] Rentt
Materials taken from monsters?
[17:18] Laura
Does that catch your interest?
[17:22] Laura
It's the blood of a vampire.
[17:32] Laura
Ingesting the blood of a vampire is
said to make one a vampire themself.
[17:38] Rentt
Is that true?
[17:40] Laura
It's just a rumor.
[17:42] Laura
There are quite a few records of
people drinking vampire blood.
[17:46] Laura
Most of them went mad and died.
[17:50] Laura
The few who survived are said to have become
hollow shells of their former selves.
[17:54] Rentt
So nobody was ever able to
become a vampire, then?
[17:58] Laura
Do you think anyone would ever
say they've become a vampire?
[18:02] Laura
They would immediately be killed.
[18:05] Rentt
True.
[18:06] Laura
So there's just rumors, and nothing more.
[18:09] Laura
But even rumors are enough to make it
desired among those who wish for eternal life.
[18:14] Laura
You can sell it for a fortune
to the high nobility.
[18:21] Rentt
I've made my choice.
[18:27] Lorraine
And this is what you chose?
[18:30] Rentt
Yes.
[18:31] Lorraine
Yes, it's wonderful.
[18:40] Lorraine
I've seen airships, but I had no idea
they were inspired by a magic item.
[18:51] Lorraine
And not only can you control
it, you can see what it sees?
[18:57] Rentt
It's a ton of fun.
[18:59] Lorraine
Who are the Latour family, though?
[19:03] Lorraine
They're freer with gifts than many royals.
[19:05] Lorraine
Well, there aren't many
adventurers like me
[19:08] Lorraine
who make regular trips
to the Tarasque swamp.
[19:13] Isaac
I can really take this, too?
[19:16] Isaac
Yes. It's thanks for taking
on such a troublesome job.
[19:20] Isaac
Of course, we'll pay you what's on the job
sheet each time you complete the task.
[19:27] Rentt
I see.
[19:28] Isaac
Now I can devote myself
fully to caring for Laura.
[19:33] Rentt
So, you want to try it?
[19:37] Lorraine
Of course... but I think first it's
time to stop playing and face reality.
[19:43] Rentt
I wasn't just playing...
[20:03] Isaac
Was he to your liking?
[20:05] Laura
Is that how it seems to you?
[20:07] Isaac
Yes.
[20:08] Laura
He was a rare sort of guest.
[20:11] Laura
I'm afraid I let myself get too excited.
[20:14] Isaac
It was a nice change of pace.
[20:16] Isaac
But for now,
please get some rest.
[20:23] Lorraine
It's safe to assume this is real?
[20:26] Rentt
I'm pretty sure it is.
[20:28] Rentt
When I saw this, I could feel it.
[20:32] Rentt
If I drink this, I knew,
something would change.
[20:37] Lorraine
Something instinctive?
[20:39] Lorraine
But are you sure?
[20:42] Lorraine
Just as Laura Latour said,
[20:44] Lorraine
the records say that everyone who ingests
vampire blood meets a terrible end...
[20:51] Rentt
So it seems.
[20:54] Lorraine
It's rare for you to be hesitant.
[20:56] Rentt
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared.
[21:00] Rentt
I know I need this if I'm going to evolve.
[21:04] Rentt
My body wants it.
[21:07] Lorraine
But it's too dangerous.
[21:09] Lorraine
You may not survive.
[21:12] Lorraine
Even if your undead body can take it, you...
[21:18] Lorraine
If you can avoid drinking
it, I'd prefer you don't.
[21:22] Lorraine
I wouldn't mind you being an undead forever.
[21:29] Lorraine
Just stay here forever and spend
your life as an adventurer.
[21:35] Rentt
Lorraine...
[21:37] Lorraine
But that's not what you want, is it?
[21:41] Lorraine
Even if you don't have the talent,
even if it takes you years...
[21:45] Lorraine
You want to become one
no matter what, right?
[21:48] Lorraine
A Mythril-class adventurer...
