[00:03] Isaac
    Oh my. I'm surprised to
    see someone else here.
[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.
