**[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.
