[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.
