[00:21] Tarte
    I've been abandoned.
[00:24] Tarte
    My family has always been poor.
[00:26] Tarte
    We only had a little bit to eat.
[00:31] Tarte
    Since there's not enough food, we had
    to reduce the number of mouths to feed.
[00:36] Tarte
    So I was abandoned.
[00:40] Tarte
    Because I was an unwanted child.
[00:43] Tarte
    An unwanted child... an unwanted child...
[00:48] Tarte
    An unwanted child... an unwanted child...
[00:53] Tarte
    I'm cold. I'm hungry. I want to go home.
[00:59] Tarte
    But even if I went home,
    I'd just be cast out again.
[01:10] Tarte
    Everyone's hungry, just like me.
[01:15] Tarte
    No...
[01:17] Tarte
    No, I don't want this!

[03:00] Cian
    Tuatha Dé had good harvest again this year.
[03:03] Esri
    Yes, thanks to everyone's efforts.
[03:07] Cookie
    Would you like a cookie?
[03:09] Esri
    My, these cookies look delicious!
[03:12] Esri
    Lugh, I bet you'd like some of these.
[03:14] Esri
    I'll buy us some. We can eat them together.
[03:18] Lugh
    You're the one who wants to eat them, Mother.
[03:20] Lugh
    I'm already ten years old.
[03:22] ---
    Please stop treating me like a child.
[03:25] Esri
    What? But you are my child.
[03:28] Esri
    It's only natural for me
    to treat you like one.
[03:30] Esri
    I'll always treat you like a child, even after
    you've become an old, white-haired man.
[03:35] Lugh
    Please don't.
[03:37] Esri
    Is this your rebellious phase? Is that it?
[03:40] Esri
    I can't believe you've lost your innocence!
[03:45] Lugh
    I haven't lost my innocence.
[03:47] Lugh
    Fine, let's eat them together.
[03:50] Esri
    Okay!
[03:51] Lugh
    Which one of us is the child?
[03:54] Cian
    Look, Lugh.
[03:56] Cian
    Your cream stew seems to be popular.
[03:59] Cian
    The people love your idea.
[04:02] Lugh
    You honor me, Father.
[04:04] Cian
    The livestock are doing well, too.
[04:06] Cian
    The price of meat products is stable.
[04:09] Lugh
    They raise their livestock during
    summer, when feed is plentiful,
[04:12] ---
    and turn them into preserved foods
    such as bacon before winter arrives.
[04:15] Lugh
    They reduce the number of
    livestock during winter,
[04:18] ---
    when feed is scarce, and breed them in spring.
[04:20] Lugh
    Such is the local food culture.
[04:22] Cian
    The town is full of life, as well.
    I look forward to the harvest festival.
[04:27] Lugh
    With this turnout, I may
    be able to find someone.
[04:32] Lugh
    There.
[04:35] Lugh
    No, not him.
[04:36] Esri
    Lucky us!
[04:38] Esri
    The people running the shop said
    you could have this for free.
[04:42] Lugh
    You shouldn't burden the people like that.
[04:46] Esri
    It's fine. See?
[04:48] Both
    Mr. Lugh!
[04:48] Esri
    They're fans of yours.
[04:51] Esri
    You little lady-killer, Lugh.
[05:02] Lugh
    I can't find anyone with mana.
[05:08] Lugh
    I'm now ten years old.
[05:10] Lugh
    I have to kill the Hero within eight years.
[05:14] Lugh
    To do that, I'd like to acquire
    a skilled assistant with mana.
[05:19] Lugh
    But most people who have mana are nobles
    or belong to their branch families.
[05:23] Lugh
    They're difficult to recruit.
[05:25] Lugh
    Ordinary people rarely possess mana.
[05:29] Lugh
    I'll have to be patient in my search.
[05:40] Esri
    You're going hunting on
    a day as cold as today?
[05:43] Lugh
    I have to hunt before it snows,
[05:45] Lugh
    or we'll eat poorly over the winter.
[05:48] Lugh
    I'm off.
[05:50] Esri
    Take care, Lugh.
[06:00] Lugh
    It's early this year.
[06:03] Lugh
    I need to go see Dia before
    the snow gets too deep.
[06:09] Lugh
    Wolves. The pack's stalking its prey.
[06:14] Lugh
    Perfect. I'll steal it out from under them.
[06:27] Lugh
    A human?
[06:40] Lugh
    Are you all right?
[06:41] Tarte
    Y-Yes.
[06:43] Lugh
    Stay there.
[06:48] Lugh
    An opportunity to practice. Five enemies.
[06:52] Lugh
    Begin.
[06:53] Lugh
    Etaerc latem.
[07:05] Lugh
    Spinal cord severed. Instant death.
[07:10] Lugh
    Brain stem lacerated. Instant death.
[07:15] Lugh
    Concussion. Not a fatal blow.
[07:31] Lugh
    Skull crushed. Instant death.
[07:34] Lugh
    All enemies eliminated.
    Training scenario over.
[07:39] Lugh
    Who are you?
[07:40] Tarte
    Huh?
[07:41] Lugh
    What are you doing so deep in the woods?
[07:43] Tarte
    I-I won't do anything bad.
[07:47] Tarte
    Please... don't hurt me.
[07:51] Lugh
    You still haven't answered my question.
[07:53] Lugh
    Why are you here?
[07:55] Tarte
    M-My family's poor. They had to reduce
    the number of mouths to feed.
[07:58] Lugh
    Mouths to feed?
[08:00] Tarte
    There's not much food in winter,
    so before it arrives...
[08:04] Lugh
    Just like the bacon.
[08:06] Tarte
    Huh?
[08:06] Lugh
    Nothing. Continue.
[08:08] Tarte
    A traveler told me the region of Tuatha Dé
    beyond the mountains is wealthy, so...
[08:38] Lugh
    It's porridge. You want some?
[08:40] Tarte
    Yes.
[08:41] Lugh
    It comes with a few conditions.
[08:45] Lugh
    Eat as slowly as you can.
[08:47] Lugh
    If you do as I say,
    I'll give you another bowl.
[08:49] Lugh
    If you eat hurriedly,
    you won't receive another.
[08:52] Lugh
    Got it?
[08:54] Tarte
    Okay.
[08:55] Lugh
    Good.
[09:17] Tarte
    Was that too fast?
[09:19] Lugh
    No. Do you want another bowl?
[09:21] Tarte
    Yes.
[09:23] Tarte
    Slowly?
[09:24] Lugh
    Yes. If you eat quickly, your stomach will
    reject the food and make you throw up.
[09:30] Lugh
    Plus, your body's cold.
[09:31] Lugh
    That's why I gave you easily
    digestible warm porridge.
[09:34] Lugh
    Eat slowly.
[09:36] Tarte
    Okay.
[09:38] Lugh
    The lord of the neighboring region is not
    only incompetent, but greedy, as well.
[09:41] Lugh
    I heard his people were suffering
    under his exorbitant taxes,
[09:45] Lugh
    but I had no idea it was this bad.
[09:48] Lugh
    You said you were heading to Tuatha Dé.
[09:50] Tarte
    Yes.
[09:51] Lugh
    I'm the son of the lord of Tuatha Dé.
[09:54] Tarte
    Really? That's... incredible.
[09:58] Tarte
    God is real after all.
[10:00] Lugh
    God?
[10:01] Tarte
    Yes. God told me in a dream that
    I'd have a fateful encounter.
[10:06] Lugh
    I see. Do you want to come with me?
[10:10] Lugh
    If you come with me,
    you'll always have food to eat.
[10:13] Lugh
    You won't have to freeze anymore.
[10:15] Tarte
    Are you sure?
[10:17] Lugh
    Yes. I want you to come with me.
[10:19] Lugh
    I need you.
[10:23] Tarte
    You... need me?
[10:27] Lugh
    You don't want to?
[10:30] Tarte
    I'm happy.
[10:32] Tarte
    No one's ever told me they needed me before.
[10:36] Lugh
    Do you think I'm a good person?
[10:38] Tarte
    Yes, you're a good person.
[10:40] Lugh
    Can you keep a secret?
[10:42] Tarte
    Yes.
[10:43] Lugh
    I've killed people.
[10:45] Tarte
    Huh?
[10:47] Lugh
    I'm going to continue
    killing a lot of people.
[10:50] Lugh
    That's the mission that's been handed to me.
[10:53] Lugh
    It's my job.
[10:55] Lugh
    I'll ask you again.
    Do you think I'm a good person?
[11:02] Tarte
    You're a good person,
    as far as I'm concerned.
[11:05] Lugh
    Good answer.
[11:06] Lugh
    But if you're coming with me,
    there are some conditions.
[11:10] Lugh
    You'll help me with my work.
[11:12] Lugh
    If you can't, then the deal's off.
[11:15] Lugh
    What'll it be?
[11:19] Tarte
    I can do it. I'll do anything.
[11:22] Tarte
    You said you needed me. I'll go with you!
[11:29] Lugh
    I am Lugh. Lugh Tuatha Dé.
[11:36] Tarte
    I'm Tarte.
[11:39] Lugh
    Welcome, Tarte, to Tuatha Dé.
[11:45] Lugh
    I finally found someone with mana.
[11:48] Lugh
    Tarte said God led her here in a dream.
[11:51] Lugh
    The Goddess probably sent her my way.
[11:55] Lugh
    By defeating the wolves,
    I demonstrated that I'm powerful.
[11:59] Lugh
    I took pity on her and fed her.
    I made her believe I'd protect her.
[12:04] Lugh
    On top of that, I offered additional
    benefits for doing as I said.
[12:10] Lugh
    By telling her I needed her,
[12:12] ---
    I convinced her that I'm the only one
    who can give her existence purpose.
[12:16] Lugh
    I revealed that I've killed people.
[12:19] Lugh
    Sharing secrets is a good
    way to earn someone's trust.
[12:24] Lugh
    The heavier the secret,
    the more effective it is.
[12:26] Lugh
    I had her make the final decision.
[12:29] Lugh
    She won't want to recognize
    that she made a mistake,
[12:33] ---
    so she won't betray me later.
[12:35] Lugh
    Brainwashing complete.
[12:38] Tarte
    I'll go with you, Mr. Lugh.
[12:41] Lugh
    Just as planned.

    Where am I?
[13:00] Goddess
    I brought your soul here after your death.
[13:04] Goddess
    Despite being the world's finest special
    forces soldier, you died in battle.
[13:10] Soldier
    What does that mean?
[13:11] Goddess
    I'm exploring all kinds of possibilities.
[13:15] Goddess
    By the way, I'm a goddess.
[13:19] Goddess
    You will be reincarnated in a fantasy
    world of swords and sorcery.
[13:24] Goddess
    I'd like you to kill the Hero there.
[13:28] Soldier
    In other words,
[13:29] Soldier
    I've been blessed with the opportunity to

[13:32] ---

[13:36] Goddess
    I can't do that,

[13:40] Goddess
    I can accommodate you to some degree.

    Got it. I accept your mission!
[13:51] Goddess
    So, Number 283 was reincarnated

    I'll start trying for real tomorrow.

    He's turned into a NEET.

    I think I'd lose if I fought the Hero.
[14:08] Soldier
    It's not that I can't fight, I just won't.
[14:11] Soldier
    It's okay. The Goddess is the

[14:31] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh, it's morning. Please wake up.
[14:37] Tarte
    If you don't get up,
    I'll have to get mischievous.
[14:46] Lugh
    Good morning, Tarte.
[14:48] Tarte
    Good morning, Mr. Lugh.
[14:50] Tarte
    You don't normally sleep in.
[14:52] Lugh
    I pushed myself too hard yesterday.
[14:55] Lugh
    I haven't recovered yet.
[14:57] Tarte
    Breakfast is ready. I'm confident
    in what I made today.
[15:00] Lugh
    I'm looking forward to it. Let's go.
[15:02] Tarte
    Yes, sir. Let me help you change.
[15:08] Lugh
    I had a dream earlier.
[15:10] Tarte
    A dream?
[15:11] Lugh
    Yes, about how we met two years ago.
[15:14] Tarte
    That's a little embarrassing.
[15:17] Tarte
    I looked like a disaster. I was so thin.
[15:22] Lugh
    You're right. When we first met,
    I didn't think you'd become so beautiful.
[15:27] ---
    I-I...
[15:29] Tarte
    I'll go put some fruit
    in your breakfast yogurt.
[15:48] Lugh
    Tarte.
[15:49] Lugh
    You don't need to perform your
    servant duties so diligently.
[15:52] Lugh
    The job's just an excuse to keep you at my side.
[15:54] Tarte
    No, I'm committed to ensuring your
    life is comfortable every day.
[15:58] Tarte
    After all, I'm your personal servant.
[16:00] Esri
    Good for you, Tarte.
[16:02] Esri
    Your cooking skills improved so quickly.
[16:05] Esri
    You're so studious.
[16:07] Tarte
    Thank you, ma'am.
[16:09] Cian
    Lugh chose well when he picked you.
[16:12] Cian
    You're satisfying him not only as
    a servant, but also with his work.
[16:17] Tarte
    Thank you, sir.
[16:20] Tarte
    I would've died if Mr. Lugh
    hadn't taken me in.
[16:24] Tarte
    So my heart, body, and life
    all belong to Mr. Lugh.
[16:29] Esri
    You've brightened up our
    home since you arrived.
[16:33] Esri
    Lugh is going through a rebellious phase and
    won't wear the clothes I make for him anymore.
[16:38] Lugh
    That has nothing to do
    with a rebellious phase.
[16:41] Esri
    I hope you'll continue to look after Lugh.
[16:43] Tarte
    Yes, ma'am. I'll serve him forever.
[16:46] Lugh
    Tarte, could you come to the
    training room after breakfast?
[16:49] Tarte
    Yes, Mr. Lugh.
[16:58] Tarte
    I'm here, Mr. Lugh.
[17:01] Lugh
    Tarte, strip.
[17:03] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[17:20] Lugh
    First kata.
[17:21] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[17:32] Lugh
    Second kata.
[17:34] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[17:38] Lugh
    Third kata.
[17:40] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[17:42] Lugh
    As my assassination assistant,
    I made Tarte my personal servant.
[17:46] Lugh
    My father imposed two conditions
    on my training her.
[17:50] Lugh
    First, that I would instruct her.
[17:54] Lugh
    Second, that if she ever betrayed us,
[17:57] ---
    I would take responsibility by killing her.
[18:00] Lugh
    In just two years, Tarte has acquired
    a body worthy of an assassin
[18:04] ---
    and refinement appropriate
    for an aristocrat's servant.
[18:08] Lugh
    In my previous life, I was
    to become an instructor,
[18:12] Lugh
    but I never thought I'd be
    training an assassin like this.
[18:16] Lugh
    Good. Put your clothes back on.
[18:18] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[18:22] Tarte
    Is something the matter, Mr. Lugh?
[18:25] Lugh
    There's nothing wrong with you physically.
[18:27] Lugh
    If anything, you're perfect.
[18:29] Tarte
    So then...
[18:31] Lugh
    The problem is your intuition. Come.
[18:34] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[18:48] Lugh
    Now you're dead.
[18:50] Tarte
    I'm sorry I can't live up to your expectations.
[18:54] Lugh
    It's fine. We'll keep training.
[18:58] Tarte
    I'm good with a spear, though.
[19:05] Maid A
    Ms. Tarte, could you wash these?
[19:08] Tarte
    Yes, ma'am.
[19:10] Lugh
    It's not that Tarte has an aptitude for it.
[19:12] Lugh
    But she's hardworking and tractable.
[19:15] Lugh
    It's the reason she'll improve,
    and why I can trust her.
[19:19] Lugh
    But her progress with combat
    skills alone has been slow.
[19:23] Lugh
    The only thing she's good
    at is handling a spear.
[19:27] Lugh
    It's possible that she has a spear-using skill.
[19:29] Maid A And B
    Wow!
[19:29] Lugh
    But weapons that can't be hidden
    aren't suitable for assassination.
[19:34] Lugh
    I'll have to come up with a knife
    fighting program suitable for Tarte.
[19:51] Lugh
    Keep the knife's edge perpendicular.
[19:53] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh?
[19:54] Tarte
    I'm sorry for coming in here
    without your permission.
[19:57] Tarte
    I want to be useful to you, but at this
    rate, I won't be able to do anything.
[20:02] Lugh
    Enough.
[20:03] Tarte
    What? But I finally met someone
    who said he needed me!
[20:07] Tarte
    I want to meet your expectations!
[20:10] Tarte
    Give me a little more time!
[20:11] Lugh
    No, let's reconsider our approach.
[20:14] Lugh
    Etaerc latem.
[20:19] Lugh
    It's a spear you can conceal by folding it up.
[20:22] Lugh
    Try it out.
[20:23] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[20:48] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh...
[20:51] Lugh
    That's what you need.
[20:54] Lugh
    Just like how I need you.
[20:58] Tarte
    Yes, sir!
[21:04] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh, it's morning. Wake up.
[21:09] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh, if you don't get up,
    I'll have to get mischievous.
[21:15] Lugh
    What are you doing here, Tarte?
[21:17] Tarte
    Did you forget, Mr. Lugh?
[21:20] Tarte
    You said I could sleep
    with you if I got lonely.
[21:23] Lugh
    I haven't thought about that in a long time.
[21:25] Tarte
    I thought you'd be tired from
    training with a spear all night.
[21:28] Tarte
    I brought you some herbal tea,
    but you'd already fallen asleep.
[21:33] Tarte
    I thought I'd lie next to you so I could
    watch you sleep for a while, and fell asleep.
[21:40] Lugh
    You must've been tired, too.
[21:42] Lugh
    After all, we were training with
    the weapon you're best with.
[21:44] Tarte
    Thank you!
[21:46] Tarte
    I feel like I can finally
    actually be someone you need.
[21:52] Lugh
    I see. That's good, Tarte.
[21:54] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[21:56] Lugh
    Everything is going according to my plan.
[21:58] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh!
[22:01] Lugh
    At least, I think it is.
[22:02] Lugh
    Mr. Lugh!
[22:03] ---
    Probably.
