[00:03] Makoto
    Several months have passed since I was
    transported to an isekai because of my parents.
[00:07] Makoto
    I've learned that in this world, there are
    hyumans who resemble Earth's humans,
[00:11] Makoto
    as well as demihumans and monsters.
[00:18] Makoto
    Among them, only the hyumans are
    seen as special by the goddess,
[00:22] Makoto
    and they receive various blessings.
[00:25] Makoto
    She treats them quite well,
    and all hyumans are beautiful.
[00:31] Makoto
    By worshiping several times at the temple,
    one can even learn their language.
[00:37] Makoto
    Driven by their resentment
    over the situation,
[00:39] Makoto
    demons have started wars with
    hyumans all across the land.
[00:44] Makoto
    Additionally, as one despised by the goddess,
[00:47] Makoto
    I can't speak Common and have
    been rejected by hyumans.
[00:53] Makoto
    Unwilling to be broken by
    the stupid goddess's cruelty,
[00:56] Makoto
    I decided to go on a journey
    with help from various species.
[01:02] Makoto
    In order to trace the path of my
    parents, who were from this world,
[01:05] Makoto
    I visited a hyuman village.
[01:08] Makoto
    But, in part because of
    a scoundrel named Mils Ace,
[01:12] Makoto
    the town was destroyed.
[01:14] Makoto
    Along with the adventurers
    being held captive by Ace,
[01:18] Makoto
    we're heading toward the next village, Tsige.

    Night Five The Greedy Wagon's Journey
[02:57] Makoto
    This is the first base we arrived
    at after leaving Zetsuya.
[03:01] Makoto
    I've forgotten its name.
[03:03] Clerk
    What? The town of Zetsuya was destroyed?
[03:06] Hazal
    That's right.
[03:07] Hazal
    A horde of terrifying monsters
    laid waste to the town.
[03:10] Hazal
    The townsfolk managed to escape,
    but there isn't a trace left of the town.
[03:15] Makoto
    By the way, thanks to Tomoe's power,
[03:17] Makoto
    the adventurers' memories have been altered,
[03:20] Makoto
    except for Toa-san and Rinon-san's.
[03:28] Clerk
    Are the monsters still at Zetsuya?
[03:31] Hazal
    No, those two chased them off for us.
[03:35] Hazal
    After all, they're both
    apparently over level 1,000.
[03:37] Clerk
    Over level 1,000? Surely you're joking.
[03:41] Makoto
    I believe we registered as
    adventurers in Zetsuya.
[03:45] Clerk
    Is that right?
[03:47] Clerk
    Then Zetsuya must have been destroyed
    before its information could be shared.
[03:51] Clerk
    You'll have to re-register in Tsige.
[03:55] Makoto
    Re-register, huh? What a pain in the rear.
[03:58] Makoto
    This is happening because...
[04:00] Makoto
    Tomoe, it was a contest of strength
    between you and Mio that led
[04:03] Makoto
    to the destruction of Zetsuya, right?
[04:06] Tomoe
    Are you going to get angry again?
[04:08] Makoto
    I understand why you got
    so worked up over it.
[04:10] Makoto
    You seemed quite bothered by the level
    difference between you and Mio.
[04:13] Tomoe
    L-Levels are just a rough measure of power!
[04:15] Tomoe
    You're currently—
[04:16] Makoto
    Knight errantry.
[04:18] Tomoe
    Huh?
[04:19] Makoto
    Samurai once wandered harsh lands
    alone in order to hone their skills.
[04:25] Tomoe
    Knight errantry?
[04:26] Tomoe
    If I trained to increase my level, then...
[04:31] Makoto
    You're amazing, Tomoe!
[04:32] Mio
    I can't hold a candle to you, Tomoe-san.
[04:36] Makoto
    She took the bait.
[04:37] Tomoe
    Young Master, I ask that you grant me
    permission to become a knight errant.
[04:41] Makoto
    I'll allow it.
[04:42] Tomoe
    Then I'm off!
[04:45] Makoto
    Good luck.
[04:47] Mio
    If Tomoe-san is leaving
    to train, does that mean...
[04:50] Mio
    I have the young master all to myself?
[04:54] Mio
    At least, I thought he'd be all mine...
[05:02] Rinon
    Sorry for getting in your way.
[05:04] Rinon
    I know you're his girlfriend.
[05:07] Mio
    I-I'm just his follower.
[05:11] Mio
    What a charming little girl.
[05:15] Rinon
    She's so easy to read.
[05:21] Makoto
    Mio, there are several monsters up ahead.
    Could you take care of them?
[05:25] Mio
    Of course.
[05:32] Mio
    Take this.
[05:37] Toa
    I-Incredible.
[05:39] Hazal
    She killed those red bees in an instant.
[05:41] Ranina
    She's so strong.
[05:42] Louisa
    And brilliant.
[05:44] Mio
    That was nothing.
[05:46] Makoto
    She's so easy to read.
[05:48] Makoto
    Well, let's proceed.
[05:50] Toa
    What? We're not going to collect materials?
[05:52] Toa
    They're valuable.
[05:54] Makoto
    But we've got a long road ahead.
[06:02] Makoto
    Do as you please.
[06:04] Toa
    Thank you!
[06:06] Makoto
    It's not what you think!
[06:08] Makoto
    I thought I'd be able to learn the
    basics of gathering materials!
[06:13] Toa
    First, the eyes.
[06:17] Toa
    So fresh!
[06:20] Makoto
    I never wanted to see someone
    wearing Hasegawa's face do that.
[06:39] Rinon
    Tsige is on the other side of that wall.
[06:42] Toa
    I was able to collect a lot of materials.
[06:44] Toa
    Have you considered offering transport
    services at the Kuzunoha Trading Company?
[06:47] Makoto
    Oh, right. I named my company
    the Kuzunoha Trading Company.
[06:53] Rinon
    Brother, look.
[06:57] Toa
    Ruby eyes. Those are fairly rare monsters.
[07:01] Makoto
    I'll leave them up to you.
[07:03] Hazal
    There's no way.
[07:05] Ranina
    They'd kill us all.
[07:07] Makoto
    Mio, you're up.
[07:08] Mio
    Again?
[07:10] Toa
    Mio-sama, whatever you do,
    don't destroy their heads.
[07:13] Hazal
    Or their wings.
[07:14] Ranina
    Try to damage them as little as possible.
[07:18] Mio
    I don't want to do it.
    Young Master, you do it.
[07:22] Makoto
    Huh?!
[07:22] Mio
    It's such a hassle.
[07:24] Mio
    Every time, they demand I go after
    this or leave that undamaged.
[07:31] Makoto
    Guess I don't have a choice.
[07:34] Makoto
    The ruby eyes' weak spot
    is their head, right?
[07:37] Hazal
    You can't hit their heads.
[07:39] Louisa
    You weren't even listening
    to us. This won't work.
[07:41] Makoto
    Just tell me what their weak spot is.
[07:44] Toa
    I believe it's their abdomen.
[07:46] Toa
    It's difficult to hit, though.
[07:48] Ranina
    Hey, Toa.
[07:49] Louisa
    Isn't he Level 1?
[07:52] Makoto
    That elven girl is merciless.
[07:55] Toa
    It's all right. Let's trust Kuzunoha-sama.
[07:59] Makoto
    Thanks, Toa-san.
[08:01] Makoto
    I'll do my best to live up to your—
[08:03] Toa
    If it comes down to it, Mio-sama will act.
[08:05] Makoto
    I take back what I said!
[08:09] Makoto
    I'm locked on.
[08:16] Makoto
    That's one.
[08:17] Makoto
    Two.
[08:19] Makoto
    Three.
[08:20] Makoto
    Four.
[08:21] Makoto
    Five.
[08:23] Makoto
    That's the last one.
[08:26] Rinon
    That was amazing, Brother.
[08:28] Louisa
    I don't believe it.
[08:30] Makoto
    I'm pretty impressive when
    you put a bow in my hands.
[08:33] Louisa
    It even has a special aiming effect?
[08:35] Makoto
    No, this is an ordinary bow!
[08:38] Toa
    Setting that aside...
[08:40] All
    Let's harvest some materials!
[08:42] Makoto
    They were only interested
    in me for a second!
[08:45] Toa
    That should do it.
[08:47] Makoto
    I'll never get used to seeing that.
[08:49] Makoto
    Are you guys done?
[08:51] Toa
    Yes. We were able to collect twelve
    flawless eyes from the ruby eyes.
[08:57] Makoto
    Then let's head to town.
[08:59] Makoto
    Onward to Tsige!
[09:10] Guild
    Your re-registration is complete.
[09:13] Guild
    You're Level 1, Rank E.
[09:15] Makoto
    Still Level 1?
[09:17] Makoto
    How were those bees rare monsters?
[09:19] Mio
    I wanted to re-register, as well.
[09:22] Makoto
    Just wait. It'll make Tomoe sulk again.
[09:25] Makoto
    Plus, it'll make me seem even more pitiful.
[09:32] Makoto
    All the quests left are A or B+.
[09:36] Makoto
    That's a special rank quest.
[09:39] Makoto
    If this request came from a client,
    I can accept it regardless of my rank.
[09:45] Makoto
    Rembrandt Trading Company.
[09:47] Makoto
    They're looking for... eyes from ruby eyes?
[09:50] Makoto
    Perfect timing.
[09:52] Toa
    We leveled up quite a bit on this journey.
[09:55] Toa
    We have you to thank for that, Kuzunoha-san.
[09:57] Makoto
    Glad to hear it. Let's divide up the materials.
[10:02] Toa
    Kuzunoha-san, you get one of each material
    and twelve eyes from the ruby eyes.
[10:08] Toa
    Are you sure that's all you want?
[10:09] Makoto
    Yes. Sorry for taking the rarest material.
[10:14] Toa
    It's fine. You're the one who defeated them.
[10:18] Toa
    Well, I guess this is goodbye.
[10:24] Makoto
    We did travel here together.
[10:28] Makoto
    Why don't we celebrate the end of our
    journey by having a meal together?
[10:33] All
    Yeah!
[10:34] Toa
    I'll choose the restaurant.
[10:37] Toa
    I'll contact you later.
    Can we exchange card contacts?
[10:42] Makoto
    Guild Cards.
[10:43] Makoto
    They seem inappropriately
    high-tech for this world.
[10:48] Makoto
    Their exact content differs
    according to rank,
[10:51] Makoto
    but the ability to communicate
    comes standard with all cards.
[10:54] Makoto
    They come with town maps,
    a monster encyclopedia,
[10:57] Makoto
    and even additional paid content.
[11:00] Makoto
    I can't believe we get all these benefits
[11:02] Makoto
    at the cost of a meager registration
    fee and annual guild dues!
[11:09] Toa
    Kuzunoha-san!
[11:11] Toa
    Over here!
[11:15] Makoto
    A butcher shop? That's a
    super standard choice!
[11:17] Toa
    Come in. We can begin right away.
[11:20] Mio
    That smells wonderful.
[11:23] Rinon
    I'm starving.
[11:27] Makoto
    Th-That's...
[11:29] Makoto
    The manga meat-on-a-bone every
    human dreams of eating!
[11:36] Toa
    To our return to Tsige and
    the fact that we met.
[11:40] All
    Cheers!
[11:44] Makoto
    Let's dig in.
[11:45] Makoto
    If it tastes like vegetable juice while
    looking like this, I'm gonna be pissed off.
[11:54] Makoto
    It's so good!
[11:56] Toa
    Is that worth crying over?
[11:57] Louisa
    It's pretty commonly available.

    It's strange. I don't sense any

    "Thing"?
[12:15] Louisa
    Above all, there's your skill with a bow.
[12:16] Louisa
    I've never seen anyone move like that.
[12:19] Makoto
    I'm not sure how to explain it.
[12:22] Hazal
    Kuzunoha-san...
[12:24] Makoto
    So close! And he's already drunk!
[12:26] Hazal

[12:29] Hazal
    Gonna use them on your

    Judging by the way you used that bow

[13:51] Makoto
    No, thank you. Both Mio and I are grateful.
[13:55] Toa
    No, I should thank you.
[14:01] Makoto
    Is this headed toward...
[14:03] Toa
    Oh, by the way...
[14:05] ---
    D'oh.
[14:06] Toa
    About that job you're taking.
[14:08] Toa
    Is it a job for the Rembrandt
    Trading Company?
[14:12] Makoto
    Yeah, what about it?
[14:14] Toa
    The truth is, I've heard some
     troubling rumors about them.
[14:22] Makoto
    That was an amazing dinner.
[14:24] Mio
    I-It certainly was.
[14:28] Makoto
    Could you head back to our room without me?
[14:30] Makoto
    I'll bring in the materials from the wagon.
[14:33] Mio
    The materials?
[14:35] Makoto
    Robbers might show up, like in Zetsuya,
[14:38] Makoto
    and I heard a troubling rumor.
[14:40] Mio
    A rumor?
[14:42] Makoto
    Toa-san told me about it at the restaurant.
[14:45] Makoto
    Apparently, bad things happen to people who
    accept jobs for the Rembrandt Trading Company.
[14:50] Makoto
    So I thought I'd be careful.
[14:53] Mio
    I see.
[14:54] Mio
    In that case, I shall change into
    my sleepwear and wait for you.
[14:57] Makoto
    You're right. The only thing left
    to do tonight is go to bed.
[15:00] Mio
    We didn't hear from Tomoe-san today, either,
[15:03] Mio
    and tonight we have only one room.
[15:06] Mio
    Which means...
[15:09] Mio
    We'll be alone together tonight.
[15:11] Mio
    There are two beds,
[15:13] Mio
    but if something were to
    happen to one of them...
[15:16] Makoto
    I'm back.
[15:18] Mio
    W-Welcome back.
[15:20] Makoto
    I brought just the valuable materials.
[15:22] Mio
    I-I see.
[15:25] Makoto
    Let's return to the demiplane
    first thing tomorrow morning.
[15:28] Makoto
    Emma-san may have heard from Tomoe.
[15:32] Makoto
    Mio, are you sleeping over there?
[15:37] Makoto
    Well, goodnight.
[15:41] Mio
    What? We're not going to do anything?!
[15:45] Mio
    I knew I should've destroyed a bed.
[15:51] Makoto
    Hup!
[15:52] Makoto
    I've learned to create
    stable mist gates, too.
[15:57] Fragment
    Young Master!
[15:59] Emma
    Welcome back.
[16:01] Makoto
    It's good to see the both of you again.
[16:03] Makoto
    We arrived safely in Tsige.
[16:06] Fragment
    Good work.
[16:08] Emma
    By the way, why are you conducting
    yourself so formally?
[16:11] Makoto
    I've been speaking this way
    on the outside for a while.
[16:14] Makoto
    I'm thinking about starting a
    trading company over there.
[16:18] Emma
    Young Master...
[16:19] Makoto
    Yes?
[16:20] Emma
    I'm sure the outside world has rules
    for how you must conduct yourself.
[16:24] Emma
    But you mustn't act like
    that in the demiplane.
[16:28] Emma
    You should act in a manner
    befitting your superior status.
[16:31] Makoto
    Uh, okay. I'll mind my behavior.
[16:35] Makoto
    I-I'll be careful.
[16:37] Emma
    Thank you.
[16:39] Makoto
    Emma-san has gained even more confidence.
[16:42] Fragment
    Yes.
[16:45] Emma
    First, I'd like to report on
    the situation of each species.
[16:50] Emma
    The alke will be settling in the mountains.
[16:54] Emma
    The orcs and mist lizards
    are assisting them.
[16:57] Emma
    While the dwarves work on
    construction and repairs,
[17:01] Emma
    they're also making equipment
    for you to test.
[17:04] Emma
    I'm having the mist lizards clear
    farmland and guard the villages.
[17:12] Fragment
    And the orcs, primarily,
[17:16] Fragment
    are constructing a residence for you.
[17:19] Makoto
    It's huge! Are you building
    a castle or something?
[17:23] Fragment
    We're also planning to use
    it as a meeting place.
[17:26] Makoto
    Oh, right. But doesn't it take up
    a lot of manpower and time?
[17:30] Emma
    As of right now, there are no problems.
[17:33] Emma
    We're establishing work procedures according
    to your memories we're able to access.
[17:39] Makoto
    My memories?
[17:41] Mio
    The young master's memories?
[17:43] Makoto
    Come to think of it,
[17:44] Makoto
    Tomoe used her power to save a bunch of
    my memories so they could be viewed.
[17:51] Makoto
    By the way, I can't get in touch with Tomoe.
[17:54] Makoto
    How about you, Emma-san?
[17:56] Emma
    You can't, either? I haven't been able to.
[18:00] Makoto
    Fragment, have you heard anything?
[18:01] Fragment
    What? Uh, my connection
    with Shin has been spotty.
[18:07] Eld
    Young Master!
[18:11] Eld
    It's good to see you again, Young Master!
[18:15] Makoto
    Eld-san? Where's your cane?
[18:17] Eld
    I built a device to assist with walking.
[18:20] Eld
    I can't let the youngsters
    do everything around here.
[18:23] Makoto
    Even an old dwarf is still a dwarf.
[18:27] Eld
    More importantly, there's something
    I'd like you to take a look at.
[18:35] Eld
    Leather armor.
[18:37] Eld
    Scale armor.
[18:39] Eld
    Full plate armor.
[18:41] Eld
    What do you think? My craftsmen
    made full use of their skills.
[18:46] Makoto
    Sorry, but no thanks.
[18:48] All
    What?!
[18:50] Makoto
    Sorry, but I'm a merchant.
[18:53] All
    Sir!
[18:55] Eld
    They're just not suitable for his purposes.
[18:58] Makoto
    I'd prefer something like a jacket or coat.
[19:03] Makoto
    Hey, that looks like a trench coat.
[19:05] Makoto
    Is that full-body protective gear
    that comes with matching pants?
[19:09] Eld
    That protective gear was made by Rugui.
[19:12] Makoto
    Rugui? Isn't he...
[19:14] Rugui
    I'd expect nothing less from the
    man who requested that ring.
[19:18] Rugui
    You're an unusual fellow.
[19:19] Makoto
    ...the guy who made Draupnir!
[19:21] Rugui
    That protective gear absorbs
    a specified amount of mana.
[19:26] Rugui
    It's the clothing version of Draupnir.
[19:29] Rugui
    But it absorbs mana exceptionally rapidly.
[19:33] Rugui
    In its current state, it absorbs mana so
    quickly it will kill you instantly, so—
[19:37] Rugui
    You're already wearing it?!
[19:38] Makoto
    It does feel like it's absorbing
    more mana than Draupnir.
[19:44] Rugui
    It offers both high physical
    and high magical defense.
[19:48] Rugui
    See how the lining is red?
[19:51] Makoto
    Yeah.
[19:51] Rugui
    Imagine it swapping with the outer layer.
[19:55] Makoto
    Like reversible clothing?
[20:01] Makoto
    Wow, how cool!
[20:03] Rugui
    When it's red, it prioritizes
    mobility over defense.
[20:07] Rugui
    You should be able to move quickly.
[20:09] Makoto
    Really? Let's see what that's like.
[20:13] Makoto
    I'm impressed you were able to make this.
[20:16] Makoto
    I'd like to use this imme—
[20:19] Makoto
    Huh?
[20:20] Rugui
    I-It's already absorbed its fill of mana.
[20:23] Makoto
    Could you make me an outfit
    that will last longer, maybe?
[20:28] Rugui
    I promise I shall make you an outfit
    that will kill you immediately!
[20:31] Makoto
    His goal changed again.
[20:35] Makoto
    What?
[20:36] Haruna
    I'm Haruna.
[20:37] Akina
    I'm Akina.
[20:39] Hokuto
    I'm Hokuto.
[20:40] Minato
    I'm Minato.
[20:42] Makoto
    These people are alke?
[20:45] Mio
    Yes. I've been having them
    practice transforming.
[20:48] Mio
    It's still difficult for them to maintain
    those forms for long, though.
[20:54] Minato
    We gathered these around here.
[20:56] Minato
    Could you tell us their properties?
[20:58] Makoto
    Yikes, you even got poison fire coral.
[21:01] Makoto
    Did you pick these with your bare hands?
[21:03] Hokuto
    Yes, they became inflamed.
[21:05] Makoto
    You should wear gloves!
[21:07] Makoto
    Ingredients grown in the demiplane
    are more powerful than normal.
[21:10] Makoto
    A single bite of these
    mushrooms can kill a person.
[21:14] Makoto
    Huh?
[21:15] Mio
    They're deliciously spicy.
[21:23] Makoto
    Setting aside my inability
    to get in touch with Tomoe
[21:25] Makoto
    and Mio's propensity for eating anything,
[21:28] Makoto
    I decided to meet the client alone.
[21:38] Makoto
    I safely arrived at the Rembrandt Trading
    Company, and I've got the required materials.
[21:43] Makoto
    My first job is going smoothly.
[21:47] Makoto
    There really was a time when I thought that.
[21:52] Rembrandt
    Everything you're doing is wrong.
[21:55] Rembrandt
    I'm sorry, but I have nothing
    more to discuss with you.
[21:59] Makoto
    My first adventure
[22:00] Makoto
    seems like it will be somewhat
[22:02] Makoto
    harder than I thought.
