WEBVTT

00:05.320 --> 00:08.180
Damn it! How could all this have happened?!

00:08.570 --> 00:10.890
Best give the soundproofing
devices a second thought.

00:11.330 --> 00:12.980
That voice...

00:14.690 --> 00:16.290
Prince Conrad!

00:19.010 --> 00:20.440
And now it's gone.

00:21.760 --> 00:25.250
<i>As far as I know, this world 
doesn't have gunpowder.</i>

00:25.710 --> 00:29.170
<i>So maybe that was magic and not fireworks.</i>

00:29.810 --> 00:31.330
<i>But for what purpose...?</i>

00:32.410 --> 00:36.110
Aw, after I lined up to buy these...

00:46.930 --> 00:48.930
Get away from her.

00:51.550 --> 00:53.000
Damned rogues.

02:27.520 --> 02:32.510
The likes of you ought never dare 
lay a hand on a woman of her station.

02:32.810 --> 02:34.220
Sanctuary!

02:38.710 --> 02:39.160
Eto!

02:39.160 --> 02:39.980
Eto!

02:42.210 --> 02:44.410
The backlash from Sanctuary
is never this bad...

02:44.940 --> 02:47.530
I am telling you to get away from her. Now.

02:47.810 --> 02:50.990
You really think we'd listen
 to a madman like you?!

02:53.370 --> 02:54.790
Sanctuary!

03:04.310 --> 03:08.550
I will say it again. Get away from her.

03:17.150 --> 03:18.350
What?

03:26.830 --> 03:28.150
Ryo!

03:28.150 --> 03:29.410
Ryo?

03:38.370 --> 03:39.440
Mind explaining...

03:40.170 --> 03:41.830
what you're doing to my friends?

03:41.830 --> 03:46.340
Shut up. And you lot, get away from her.

03:49.530 --> 03:51.760
What's the meaning of this?

03:54.730 --> 03:57.030
You die first, then.

04:01.890 --> 04:03.480
Ice Wall 10.

04:19.960 --> 04:21.160
Impossible.

04:25.030 --> 04:27.840
What? Is that all you've got?

04:28.880 --> 04:32.100
Because if so, then it's my turn.

04:39.860 --> 04:40.720
We're not done here.

04:42.480 --> 04:44.400
Don't get cocky!

04:48.830 --> 04:49.820
Ryo!

05:43.660 --> 05:44.930
Hold it!

05:44.930 --> 05:47.120
Both of you, sheathe your weapons!

05:47.920 --> 05:49.150
Abel!

05:50.090 --> 05:53.070
No one asked you, Abel.

05:53.400 --> 05:56.240
If you butt in, I can freeze you solid, too.

05:58.310 --> 06:01.430
J-Just give me a moment, Ryo.

06:01.910 --> 06:04.090
You with the white hair... 
You're Oscar, right?

06:04.640 --> 06:09.150
Oscar Luska, a lieutenant in the 
Debuhi Empire's Magic Division.

06:09.870 --> 06:11.480
Who are you supposed to be?

06:11.710 --> 06:13.190
My name is Abel.

06:13.560 --> 06:16.830
I'm in town acting on behalf
 of Lune's guild master.

06:17.520 --> 06:20.520
The four men you're fighting
weren't part of the attack.

06:21.080 --> 06:23.830
They're adventurers of Lune's guild.

06:23.830 --> 06:25.540
Adventurers?

06:25.780 --> 06:27.200
Yes, exactly.

06:27.200 --> 06:30.880
They're not the sort that would've taken 
part in the raid on the lord's manor.

06:31.130 --> 06:36.300
I fully understand you're acting out 
of concern for Her Imperial Highness.

06:36.530 --> 06:39.350
So please, just hear me out.

06:43.840 --> 06:44.810
Abel.

06:45.720 --> 06:47.870
You've said your piece, haven't you?

06:48.650 --> 06:51.150
So I'm going to kill him now.

06:51.150 --> 06:53.070
Wait, why?!

06:53.070 --> 06:55.210
After what he's done to my friends,

06:55.520 --> 06:59.320
do you seriously expect me 
to go "Oh, okay" and make nice?

06:59.800 --> 07:03.580
I'm not opposed to freezing the woman 
before giving her back, either.

07:05.990 --> 07:08.460
The Fall of Heaven and Earth!

07:17.260 --> 07:18.720
Water Jet.

07:35.440 --> 07:38.670
Impressive, for a human, 
but that looks like the best you can do.

07:40.070 --> 07:42.920
I can kill him now, right, Abel?

07:42.920 --> 07:44.240
You idiot!

07:44.570 --> 07:48.450
Of course not! 
This is an international incident!

07:48.450 --> 07:51.920
If you keep it up, this could lead to war!

07:52.450 --> 07:53.880
As for you, Oscar...

07:53.880 --> 07:55.960
I was at the lord's manor.

07:55.960 --> 07:59.920
Prince Conrad sent me here on orders 
to ensure Princess Fiona was all right.

07:59.920 --> 08:01.590
He did?

08:01.960 --> 08:03.230
That's right.

08:04.070 --> 08:06.710
Your priority should be 
the prince and princess's safety,

08:06.710 --> 08:08.390
then investigating the attack.

08:08.800 --> 08:11.320
Does this skirmish serve 
any purpose whatsoever?

08:20.150 --> 08:25.370
Ryo, I understand why you're mad, 
but I'm asking you to put your sword away.

08:25.370 --> 08:31.460
Would you be convinced to stand down 
like this if someone had hurt Rihya?

08:31.460 --> 08:33.630
Yes, I would.

08:33.630 --> 08:38.300
Because I know she wouldn't want war 
between our kingdom and the empire.

08:38.730 --> 08:41.370
Talk certainly is cheap.

08:41.970 --> 08:42.670
Ryo!

08:55.160 --> 08:57.110
Why didn't you dodge?

08:59.160 --> 09:03.650
Because I refuse to see war ignited
with you as the cause, Ryo.

09:04.450 --> 09:06.350
I'd give my life stop it.

09:06.870 --> 09:09.490
So I won't let things come to that.

09:21.290 --> 09:22.610
Fine.

09:23.810 --> 09:27.390
Out of respect for Abel, 
I'm willing to stay my blade.

09:29.900 --> 09:35.140
Abel, can you take the princess to him?

09:35.140 --> 09:36.360
Okay.

09:36.360 --> 09:39.360
Nils, I'll take the princess off your hands!

10:13.480 --> 10:16.600
Hey, help me out over here!

10:19.160 --> 10:21.400
You mean <i>the</i> Rihya healed me?!

10:21.400 --> 10:25.060
Yeah. At one of the temple clinics.

10:25.060 --> 10:27.240
She stayed by you until you recovered.

10:27.240 --> 10:28.370
I don't believe it...

10:28.720 --> 10:30.320
She's truly a goddess!

10:30.570 --> 10:34.800
Well, I'm just glad you're all feeling better.

10:34.800 --> 10:36.440
All's well that ends well.

10:36.440 --> 10:38.490
You're really saying that, Ryo?

10:39.040 --> 10:40.500
Abel!

10:40.750 --> 10:42.840
You look more tired than usual.

10:42.840 --> 10:44.230
And whose fault is that?

10:44.750 --> 10:47.300
I had a real mess on my hands after that.

10:47.300 --> 10:52.050
Um, do we need to worry about any reprisals?

10:52.290 --> 10:54.280
No, that won't be an issue.

10:54.600 --> 10:58.230
I explained the situation to the prince
 and princess when she woke up,

10:58.230 --> 10:59.480
and they understood.

10:59.970 --> 11:02.890
Oscar even gave an apology.

11:03.290 --> 11:06.530
Last night is being chalked up 
to a mutual misunderstanding.

11:06.530 --> 11:08.200
Really?!

11:08.200 --> 11:11.490
I was worried they might take 
our adventuring licenses.

11:11.720 --> 11:15.830
He actually took responsibility?
That's good to hear.

11:15.830 --> 11:20.920
Seriously, Ryo? 
After you almost started a war?

11:21.630 --> 11:24.530
Well, you guys may have made out all right,

11:24.530 --> 11:28.470
but there were a fair number 
of casualties at the garden party.

11:28.960 --> 11:32.510
That means no shortage of diplomatic 
complications in the near future.

11:32.510 --> 11:35.260
Doesn't that fall on you,

11:35.260 --> 11:38.990
considering you were present 
but didn't do anything?

11:38.990 --> 11:40.680
It wasn't my fault!

11:40.680 --> 11:43.780
I was doing business for the guild master
 in a separate building,

11:43.780 --> 11:46.860
and by the time I returned, 
it was already a disaster.

11:46.860 --> 11:50.200
Unbelievable. There's never an 
Abel around when you need one.

11:51.510 --> 11:56.440
O-Oh, right! Princess Fiona wants to 
extend her thanks to the three of you.

11:56.440 --> 11:58.330
The princess said that?

11:58.750 --> 12:01.250
You saved her from smashing into the ground

12:01.250 --> 12:04.440
and risked your lives to 
protect her from the raiders.

12:04.830 --> 12:06.420
She's offering a monetary reward.

12:06.420 --> 12:07.660
All right!

12:07.660 --> 12:08.850
That would be appreciated!

12:08.850 --> 12:10.740
Can we really accept?

12:10.740 --> 12:12.630
There's nothing in it for you, Ryo.

12:13.890 --> 12:15.540
W-Well...

12:15.540 --> 12:18.770
By the time I arrived, 
the bad guys were already down,

12:18.770 --> 12:21.850
and there was only some weird 
fire mage to deal with.

12:22.090 --> 12:25.680
I wish you could appreciate the audacity
 of you calling the Inferno Magician

12:25.680 --> 12:27.290
"some weird mage."

12:29.850 --> 12:32.780
Looks like the festival's over.

12:32.780 --> 12:36.680
Which means our first escort job is over, too.

12:37.360 --> 12:38.740
Not yet.

12:40.470 --> 12:43.190
The escort's not over 
until you arrive safely home.

12:44.600 --> 12:47.330
Let's head back to Lune.

12:58.060 --> 13:01.290
<i>When? When's he going to be back?</i>

13:02.750 --> 13:05.110
<i>Ah, I just can't get my spirits up.</i>

13:06.090 --> 13:10.740
<i>All when I didn't even know 
Ryo existed a month ago...</i>

13:16.280 --> 13:19.910
<i>I should really just think of it 
as going back to those days.</i>

13:23.770 --> 13:26.770
<i>Why do I feel this way?</i>

14:00.640 --> 14:02.590
So this is the forbidden archive...

14:02.890 --> 14:06.550
Normally you need to be a B-rank 
adventurer to get in here,

14:06.910 --> 14:09.050
but I got special permission for you.

14:10.430 --> 14:12.880
There's something I really want you to see.

14:14.650 --> 14:16.600
This is about alchemy!

14:16.600 --> 14:18.870
Truly fascinating.

14:18.870 --> 14:21.940
Isn't it? You can understand 
why I wanted to show you.

14:21.940 --> 14:25.530
I'm sorry. I know you must've 
been waiting for a while.

14:25.530 --> 14:29.610
Oh, no, it wasn't a big deal. 
Don't worry about it.

14:29.610 --> 14:31.390
I really appreciate it.

14:31.750 --> 14:34.170
Okay, I'm going to get to work on my notes.

14:34.170 --> 14:37.240
You can't make a copy with Transcribe, 
considering it's sheepskin.

14:37.240 --> 14:40.040
This would be much easier
 if it were on paper.

14:42.830 --> 14:46.050
Did you just say something
 about transcribing?

14:46.050 --> 14:49.510
Indeed, I was talking about Transcribe.

14:50.150 --> 14:55.180
So this "Transcribe" lets you copy 
anything that's written out on paper?

14:55.180 --> 14:57.110
That's precisely what it does.

14:57.110 --> 15:01.940
And from the way you're talking,
I'd wager you didn't know about the spell.

15:03.400 --> 15:05.550
You really are something.

15:05.550 --> 15:08.170
You seem to know so much, 
and you're really strong,

15:08.170 --> 15:10.940
but you're clueless on certain fundamentals.

15:10.940 --> 15:13.320
So Transcribe is a basic spell?

15:17.370 --> 15:19.250
There, all done.

15:19.480 --> 15:20.880
Good work.

15:23.070 --> 15:25.690
There's something I've been 
wondering for a long time.

15:25.690 --> 15:28.340
Sera, you're here in the library a lot, right?

15:28.340 --> 15:30.050
Yes, I am.

15:30.480 --> 15:34.250
Doesn't the entry fee add up rather quickly?

15:36.390 --> 15:37.560
Well, you see...

15:37.560 --> 15:42.320
Since I work for the lord, 
they waive the entrance fee for me.

15:42.320 --> 15:43.730
I am so jealous!

15:43.730 --> 15:46.310
I-I paid it at first, I'll have you know!

15:46.310 --> 15:51.550
But when the lord learned that 90 percent
of the admissions here were just me,

15:51.550 --> 15:54.590
he found that excessive and waived the fee.

15:55.350 --> 16:01.060
And he's also the reason I was able 
to get you into the special archive!

16:01.060 --> 16:03.500
You couldn't even get in here
 with a chaperone normally.

16:03.500 --> 16:05.960
And, of course, I'm grateful.

16:05.960 --> 16:07.380
Oh, that reminds me.

16:07.380 --> 16:09.630
I'd like to take you 
to a Transcriber after this

16:09.630 --> 16:13.300
so you can see what the spell looks like.

16:13.300 --> 16:18.440
I'd love that. I'm afraid my magic knowledge
might be a little too specialized.

16:18.680 --> 16:22.630
I'm not particularly knowledgeable 
when it comes to human magic either,

16:22.630 --> 16:26.190
but it's also been a while 
since I left the forest.

16:26.410 --> 16:31.120
<i>That makes me wonder old she actually is...</i>

16:31.650 --> 16:35.610
Ryo, you were thinking something 
rude just now, weren't you?

16:35.610 --> 16:37.320
Oh, no!

16:38.790 --> 16:40.790
I'll have you know I'm about 200 years old.

16:40.790 --> 16:41.750
Two hund—

16:41.750 --> 16:44.540
What? Is it that big of a surprise?

16:44.540 --> 16:50.000
No, it's just surprising that 
you're still so pretty, considering.

16:50.000 --> 16:50.780
P-Pretty?!

16:53.310 --> 16:58.110
Wh-What an embarrassing
 thing to hear so directly.

17:01.490 --> 17:03.350
And here's our Transcriber.

17:05.850 --> 17:08.270
Hey, Sera. And if it isn't Ryo.

17:08.270 --> 17:10.760
Abel... It's been a while.

17:10.760 --> 17:13.440
Rare to see you working, Abel.

17:13.440 --> 17:16.000
I work plenty, you know.

17:16.000 --> 17:18.990
What are the two of you
 doing together, anyway?

17:18.990 --> 17:22.700
Sera is sort of like... I guess 
you could say my teacher.

17:22.700 --> 17:26.410
And Ryo is sort of like... 
I guess you could say my student.

17:31.240 --> 17:33.000
Whoops, I'm in a hurry.

17:33.000 --> 17:35.080
I've got to deliver these, so...

17:35.080 --> 17:36.710
Oh, hey, Abel.

17:36.710 --> 17:37.590
What?

17:37.900 --> 17:42.060
I wanna talk, so mind if I drop by later?

17:42.060 --> 17:43.780
Yeah, sure thing.

17:43.780 --> 17:46.010
I'll see you then.

17:48.120 --> 17:49.040
Ryo.

17:50.680 --> 17:52.300
Can we talk?

17:52.300 --> 17:55.570
I thought we already were, Sera.

17:55.570 --> 17:57.280
That's exactly what I mean.

17:57.280 --> 17:59.200
About the <i>way</i> we talk.

18:00.410 --> 18:03.080
Before now, I thought that, 
because I'm B-rank,

18:03.080 --> 18:07.210
you were just a little nervous around me
and that it was only natural.

18:07.770 --> 18:10.170
But you were so casual with Abel just now.

18:11.530 --> 18:14.000
Now that you mention it, yeah.

18:14.000 --> 18:14.960
It's not fair.

18:15.350 --> 18:17.550
Huh? What was that?

18:18.990 --> 18:21.510
I'm saying you should be 
friendlier with me, too!

18:21.510 --> 18:24.430
I-I guess I wouldn't mind...

18:24.430 --> 18:27.100
Then let's start right now.
Say we're friends.

18:28.290 --> 18:29.560
We're friends...

18:31.670 --> 18:32.570
Great!

18:37.130 --> 18:38.950
Sorry to keep you waiting, Ryo.

18:39.410 --> 18:41.410
What did you want to talk about?

18:41.880 --> 18:44.580
You owe me something,
and I'm hoping you'll pay up.

18:44.580 --> 18:46.120
What did I borrow from you?

18:46.120 --> 18:50.290
Remember that promise to treat 
me to dinner for a week?

18:52.130 --> 18:55.590
B-B-But of course! It's not like I forgot!

18:56.440 --> 18:57.980
I swear...

18:57.980 --> 19:00.800
I expected as much.

19:01.250 --> 19:04.430
To make up for it, I'd like 
your help with something.

19:04.430 --> 19:06.140
A-All right.

19:06.140 --> 19:10.640
What is it? Sounds like this might 
be a bigger deal than dinner.

19:10.640 --> 19:14.230
Since my roommates, Nils, Eto, and Amon,

19:14.230 --> 19:17.060
are going to be leaving the 
dorms and moving in together,

19:17.060 --> 19:20.610
I think I'd like to try living on my own.

19:20.610 --> 19:23.360
You're not going to be moving in with them?

19:23.360 --> 19:27.360
No, there's a lot of experimenting I 
have planned with magic and alchemy,

19:27.360 --> 19:30.040
so I'd like a house with a big yard.

19:30.040 --> 19:33.330
And I was hoping you'd help me find 
the kind of property I need.

19:33.330 --> 19:36.210
I see. I can lend you a hand with that.

19:36.490 --> 19:40.900
I sold more of the wyvern magic stone, 
so we'll have a sizable budget.

19:40.900 --> 19:48.340
This sort of setup often leads to winding up 
in an old-timey noble estate

19:48.340 --> 19:49.350
or a haunted house.

19:49.350 --> 19:52.440
That's what I'm expecting, anyway!

19:52.440 --> 19:56.150
I'm not sure where you get these ideas from.

19:56.450 --> 19:59.670
And I hate to break it to you, 
but that's pretty unlikely.

20:02.010 --> 20:04.070
I'm terribly sorry.

20:04.070 --> 20:06.360
Even with Sir Abel's introduction,

20:06.360 --> 20:10.790
we cannot allow someone of lower status 
to purchase a noble's property.

20:11.870 --> 20:13.860
Well, there you have it.

20:13.860 --> 20:18.870
Mr. Riplait, Ryo's looking for 
a property with a large yard.

20:18.870 --> 20:21.100
And he's prepared to pay well for it.

20:21.100 --> 20:22.470
Is there anything available?

20:22.470 --> 20:28.870
I see. But in terms of what's out there, 
I'm not sure if anything is suitable...

20:30.680 --> 20:31.890
Did you find something?

20:31.890 --> 20:34.190
This seems to meet his requirements.

20:34.190 --> 20:36.270
There's just one problem...

20:36.270 --> 20:37.840
What's that?

20:38.440 --> 20:42.240
The property is outside of town.

20:42.240 --> 20:43.400
It is?

20:54.510 --> 20:55.790
Here we are.

21:00.250 --> 21:04.760
It's a farmhouse, 
but the owners were well-off.

21:07.070 --> 21:12.960
A cleaning company has maintained it,
 so it's in rather pristine condition.

21:18.550 --> 21:24.550
Accounting for the various transaction fees, 
it would cost 50,000,000 florins and—

21:24.550 --> 21:25.280
I'll take it.

21:25.630 --> 21:26.880
That was fast!

21:27.850 --> 21:31.510
It's a great house. I like it.

21:34.200 --> 21:40.710
Ryo Mihara has finally clashed with 
the Inferno Magician, Oscar Luska.

21:41.240 --> 21:43.850
This amounts to little more
 than first contact,

21:43.850 --> 21:47.690
but their conflict I see in the 
future will be quite significant.

21:48.090 --> 21:51.490
My, not to mention certain other matters...

21:53.480 --> 21:57.370
I must say, his path seems a complicated one.

21:58.230 --> 22:05.410
Most people don't end up in such situations
just because they've been reincarnated.

22:06.040 --> 22:09.950
The peaceful, safe life he wanted will be the 
furthest thing from what's in store for him.

22:11.630 --> 22:16.390
Ryo Mihara... I hope you survive the experience.

22:27.290 --> 22:28.630
I can't wait!
