[00:10] (Flashback) 10 yo Elfaria
    Will, you're kind and
    you're braver than anyone.

    Now then... farewell.

    Elfie!
[00:37] (Flashback) 10 yo Will
    I will make it to the tower, too!
[00:39] (Flashback) 10 yo Will
    Even if I can't use magic!
[00:41] (Flashback) 10 yo Will
    Even if everything tries to tear us apart!
[00:45] (Flashback) 10 yo Will
    I'll come for you, no matter what!
[00:48] (Flashback) 10 yo Will
    Just like I promised...
[00:53] (Flashback) 10 yo Will
    Let's go see the sunset together!
[01:00] (Flashback) 10 yo Elfaria
    Okay.
[01:02] (Flashback) 10 yo Elfaria
    It's a promise.
[01:04] (Flashback) 10 yo Elfaria
    I'll be waiting!
[01:07] (Flashback) 10 yo Elfaria

[04:39] Will
    Rosty! Can you make me a magic item?
[04:42] Rosty
    Will! What's got you rushing around like that?
[04:46] Will
    Elfie sent down an order! I have to go!
[04:49] Rosty
    You do? What about your lessons?
[04:52] Will
    I don't have class today!
    That's why I'm prioritizing this!
[04:57] Rosty
    Is it a tough job?
[04:59] Will
    The order is to collect
    Frost Walker ice cores.
[05:02] Will
    Apparently, she needs
    a lot of magic catalysts,
[05:04] Will
    so all contributing students
    will be compensated!
[05:07] Will
    The target is on the fourth floor,
[05:09] Will
    so I need your magic items, Rosty!
[05:15] Rosty
    You truly are an incredibly
    straightforward roommate.
[05:19] Rosty
    I've already made improvements
    to the previous version.
[05:22] Rosty
    Here. Take these.
[05:23] Will
    That's an artificer for you! Thank you!

[05:34] Rosty
    Take care out there.

[06:29] Gordon
    He blew all the Frost Walkers away in one go!
[06:34] Sion; internal
    Weaklings like this aren't good enough.
[06:36] Sion; internal
    Back then, he was even more...
[06:42] Will; internal
    Sion's amazing.
[06:44] Will; internal
    Though he really seems
    like he's here for blood.
[06:47] Will; internal
    At this rate, there won't be
    anything left to hunt.
[06:50] Will; internal
    Going deeper's my only option!
[07:01] Will
    Look out!
[07:19] Iris
    What just happened?
[07:22] Iris; internal
    He didn't use any magic. He used... a sword?
[07:26] Will
    Are you all right? You're not hurt?
[07:28] Iris
    N-No, I'm fine! Thank you
    so much for saving me!
[07:34] Will
    What a relief! I'm Will.
    Erm, who might you be?

SIGN    Rigarden Magical Academy Professor
    Workner Norgram
[07:48] Workner
    In this world, creating new magic
    is a profound achievement.
[07:53] Workner
    One so grand that it guarantees
    unconditional advancement to the tower.
SIGN    Rigarden Magical Academy Student, Sixth Year
    Rose Prehnite
SIGN    Rigarden Magical Academy Student, Sixth Year
    Colette Loire
[07:57] Workner
    A truly laudable feat.
[07:59] Workner
    New magics are often
    named after their creators
[08:02] Workner
    or take their names from
     words associated with them.
[08:07] Workner
    In the case of the dark magic spell
    Dax Darbicans,
[08:10] Workner
    its namesake is a mage from ancient times,
    Firewatchman Darbicans.
[08:15] Workner
    I'm saying that if one of you
    creates a new form of magic,
[08:19] Workner
    you'll be carving your name in history.
[08:22] student 1; male
    He makes it sound simple.
[08:24] student 2; male
    But that's not a realistic way
    to advance academically.
[08:29] Rose
    Professor Workner!
[08:30] Rose
    Does that mean Lady Elfaria, who was in
    the papers this morning, is really that good?
[08:35] Workner
    If I weren't to be choosy about my phrasing...
[08:38] Workner
    I'd say she's crazy good!
[08:40] Workner
    Almost unbelievably so.
[08:44] Workner
    I've never heard of single person
    authoring twelve original spells.
[08:49] Workner
    In that regard, you could say that
     she's one of the greatest mages
[08:52] Workner
    to ever live in all the annals of history.
[08:55] student 3; female
    Lady Elfaria is incredible!
[08:57] student 4; male
    So ice magic is the most powerful right now?
[09:00] student 5; male
    I'm definitely joining the ice faction!
[09:03] Colette
    She really is something, this childhood
    friend who Will's chasing after.
[09:08] Colette
    And since she issued that order,
    the school's been in an uproar.
[09:12] Rose
    Colette, you look like some
     young maiden right now.
[09:15] Colette
    Young maiden? What are
    you talking about, Rose?
[09:18] Rose
    You're jealous of Lady Elfaria, right?
[09:21] Rose
    "Will's amazing friend is going
    to steal him away!" Right?
[09:25] Colette
    D-Don't say such ridiculous things!
[09:27] Workner
    You there! What are you doing?
[09:29] Workner
    We're in the middle of class!
[09:30] Colette
    I-I'm sorry, Professor Workner!
[09:33] Rose
    Sorry!
[09:35] Rose
    We got scolded.
[09:37] Colette
    Honestly.
[09:41] Colette; internal
    I wonder if Will is in the dungeon
    again right now because of her.
[09:46] Iris
    So you're that upperclassman
    book learner I've heard about, right?
[09:49] Iris
    The one who can't use magic.
    A completely unprecedented no-talent.
[09:53] Will; internal
    C-Completely unprecedented?
[09:55] Will
    Wait, did you call me an upperclassman?
[09:57] Iris
    I'm only fourteen, you see.
[10:00] Will; internal
    She's two years younger than me.
    Is she a fourth-year?
[10:04] Will
    Um, it doesn't bother you?
[10:09] Will
    As you said, I'm talentless.
[10:12] Will
    You don't feel any... disdain?
[10:16] Iris
    How could I look down on
    the person who saved me?
[10:21] Will
    What?
[10:22] Iris
    Even if you can't use magic,
[10:24] Iris
    I have a heartfelt respect for
    people with their own gifts.
[10:30] Will
    I-Iris, are you for the order, too?
[10:33] Iris
    Yes! I want to be of use to the Magia Vander!
[10:37] Iris
    I, too, wish to become one of
     the people holding up the sky!
[10:44] Will; internal
    Iris isn't kidding.
[10:49] Will; internal
    We don't know the real sky.
[10:54] Will; internal
    Even now, our world is hidden.
[10:56] Will; internal
    The tremendous magical energies
    of the Magia Vander cloak everything,
[11:00] Will; internal
    creating a false sky, the Great Barrier.
[11:06] Will; internal
    According to the Lore,
[11:08] Will; internal
    when the barrier falls, the world will
    once again be enveloped in darkness,
[11:12] Will; internal
    and the Calamity will begin.
[11:15] Will; internal
    We students strive to meet orders not
    only because we admire the Magia Vander,
[11:20] Will; internal
    but also because we believe
    it will help to support the sky.
[11:26] Iris
    Will!
[11:28] Iris
    To tell you the truth,
    I've had the honor of meeting Lady Elfaria.
[11:33] Will
    What? Really?
[11:34] Iris
    Yes! I'll never forget it.
[11:36] Iris
    I was alone in the dungeon,
    and I'd fallen into a dire predicament!
[11:41] Will
    It sounds like you get into trouble a lot, Iris.
[11:44] Iris
    I was surrounded by a myriad
    of monsters, isolated and helpless.
[11:47] Iris
    The situation was hopeless!
[11:49] Iris
    Thoughts of death flashed through my mind.
[11:51] Iris
    And then...
[12:08] (Flashback) Elfaria
    Are you all right?
[12:18] (Flashback) Elfaria
    Next time, be more careful, won't you?
[12:21] Iris
    Oh wow, wow, wow, wow, wow!
[12:23] Iris
    That's what happened!
[12:26] Will
    I-I see.
[12:28] Iris
    Thus I had occasion to speak with her
    about a great many things!
[12:31] Iris
    Oh, Lady Elfaria! I will give
    my very best for your sake!
[12:41] Iris
    And so, I gladly came here to do my part,
[12:45] Iris
    but I haven't found any
     Frost Walkers whatsoever!
[12:48] Iris
    I think everyone else must
     have defeated them all.
[12:52] Iris
    I'm not picking up anything with Search.
[13:01] Iris
    Will? What are you doing?
[13:04] Will
    When Frost Walkers move,
    they leave ice fragments behind.
[13:08] Will
    Normally, they're between
    half a mille and one mille.
[13:11] Will
    But these are more than double that.
[13:19] Will
    There's a powerful one up ahead.
[13:22] Iris
    A p-powerful one?
[13:24] Will
    Yes.
[13:25] Will
    Probably somewhere your and
     everyone else's Search can't detect.
[13:28] Iris
    P-Please wait!
    Will, you can't use magic, right?
[13:32] Iris
    How do you know all this?!
[13:35] Will
    Magic is amazing,
    but I don't think it's absolute.
[13:39] Will
    Especially not inside the dungeon.
[13:44] Will
    And even I have some knowledge and wisdom.
[13:49] Will
    Experience can make up for the rest.
[13:51] Will
    That's what I believe.
[13:57] Iris
    Experience?
[13:59] Will; internal
    That's right.
[14:03] Will; internal
    Turn the unknown into the known.
[14:16] Iris; internal
    That's...
[14:24] Iris; internal
    a Frost Rex!
[14:27] Will
    Just as I thought. A powerful one.

    The Magia Vander? I mean, they're amazing, yeah?
    My grandpa told me that each one of them could blow the town away
    while picking their nose.
    
    Huh? A Magia Vander of Earth? Well, I heard
    there was one a long time ago, but there's no way nowadays, right?
    I mean, the earth faction is all doddering old men.
    And, you know, earth magic is sort of, well... plain.
    It's not cute, so it's not popular, you know?

[14:48] Iris; internal
    A Frost Rex...
[14:50] Iris; internal
    The highest form of Frost Walker.
[14:52] Iris; internal
    It's worth six credits,
    so it's an over-five enemy.
[14:56] Iris; internal
    It's a special monster specific to floor 4!
[15:09] Will
    Iris, you stay here!
[15:10] Iris
    What?
[15:11] Iris
    N-No, you can't! Physical attacks
    won't work on a Frost Rex!
[15:15] Iris
    Anything that touches it freezes instantly,
[15:18] Iris
    so close combat is a no-go!
    They call it a dwarf killer!
[15:20] Iris
    The only way to deal with one
    is long-range magic attacks!
[15:23] Iris
    Will, you can't do this!
[15:26] Will
    It's all right.
[15:32] Will
    I've already...
[15:35] Will
    beat monsters like this plenty of times!
[17:07] Will; internal
    A Frost Rex is weak to flames...

    and explosive attacks!

[18:35] Will
    I'd expect no less from Rosty's magic items!
[18:38] Will
    I'll have to thank him later.
[18:45] Iris; internal
    I see. So this is the no-talent.
[18:48] Iris; internal
    There's quite a disparity between the
    rumors I've heard and the real thing.
[18:53] Iris; internal
    How should I report this?

[21:29] Cariot
    As usual, we're holding a boring
    meeting merely for the sake of it.
[21:33] Cariot
    If the barrier were breached now,
    the world would be lost.
[21:37] Zeo
    That Celestial Host that's watching us
    right now from beyond the sky...
[21:42] Zeo
    would overwhelm us with the numbers
    and strength we have right now.
[21:46] Ellenor
    We need more promising seedlings
     for the Fated Day.
[21:50] Ellenor
    We cannot allow what's written
    in the Lore to come to pass.
[21:53] Zeo
    So, how'd it go, watcher? Find anyone useful?
[21:57] Iris
    In my observation of the academy,
    I did discover one interesting prospect.
[22:02] Iris
    The no-talent who cannot use magic,
[22:05] Iris
    Will Serfort.
[22:07] Iris
    I recommend him for a position in the tower.
[22:09] Cariot
    Impossible.
[22:10] Ellenor
    Begone.
[22:10] Zeo
    Sounds like fun!
[22:15] Ellenor
    Do not further increase the number
    of inferior people I have around me.
[22:18] Ellenor
    My displeasure will know no bounds.
[22:20] Zeo
    You're all too set in your ways.
[22:23] Zeo
    I'd even take a dwarf if they're useful.
[22:26] Ellenor
    Lawless barbarian.
[22:28] Ellenor
    I still cannot fathom
     what a man like you is doing here.
[22:34] Cariot
    Stop it, both of you.
[22:36] Cariot
    Whatever the case,
    there is no need to be rash.
[22:40] Cariot
    And it's nearly time for
     the Grand Magic Festival.
[22:43] Cariot
    We can wait to make a decision until after
     we see those results, wouldn't you agree?
[22:46] Zeo
    Yeah. The useful ones will scramble
    to the top on their own.
[22:50] Zeo
    If they don't make it,
    then that's all they had in them.
[22:53] Zeo
    Is our pointless meeting
    is over then? I'm leaving.

    is quite interesting, isn't he...
