<b>EPISODE 5: A SUMMONER'S POTENTIAL</b>

01:31.810 --> 01:33.020
Oh, they're here!

01:33.020 --> 01:34.900
Took you long enough to heal up, Rodin!

01:35.150 --> 01:36.900
Sorry to worry you, fellas.

01:37.400 --> 01:39.310
As you can see, I'm fit as a fiddle!

01:39.730 --> 01:42.480
So, the little guy's really tagging along?

01:42.690 --> 01:46.730
Yeah. As I'm sure you've heard,
we're adopting Allen's hunting strategy this time.

01:47.310 --> 01:48.900
But he's only tagging along to watch.

01:49.270 --> 01:51.980
I won't get in the way. Thanks for having me.

01:52.440 --> 01:56.520
Sigh. I wanted to be part of the hunt.

01:56.940 --> 02:00.310
But Dad's such a hardhead. He wouldn't budge.

02:00.810 --> 02:01.810
Oh, well.

02:02.190 --> 02:05.940
The important thing is that we train the newbies
to help the group hunt more boars.

02:06.480 --> 02:08.940
I don't want to see anybody
get hurt like that again.

02:09.810 --> 02:10.730
Mr. Rodin.

02:11.440 --> 02:12.980
I'm sorry about what happened last year.

02:13.310 --> 02:15.770
Please don't cover for me
if anything goes wrong today.

02:15.770 --> 02:18.230
It's no biggie. Focus on your role in the hunt!

02:18.480 --> 02:19.440
Uh, yessir.

02:20.310 --> 02:22.190
Okay! Let's move out!

02:22.270 --> 02:23.270
Right!

02:34.270 --> 02:38.150
My seventh year living as a serf
and I finally get to leave the village.

02:38.770 --> 02:40.520
One small step forward!

02:43.350 --> 02:45.350
Those must be the White Dragon Mountains.

02:46.690 --> 02:52.190
Every fall, the boars leave the foot of the
mountains to come here in search of food.

02:52.900 --> 02:57.150
And legends say that a mythical White Dragon
lives somewhere near the summit.

02:57.400 --> 02:59.770
The fantasy vibes are through the roof!

03:00.060 --> 03:02.600
Hey, Allen! You getting cold feet or what?

03:03.480 --> 03:05.150
No way!

03:08.350 --> 03:09.900
Just stick to what we practiced.

03:10.310 --> 03:12.350
Everybody to your posts!

03:12.480 --> 03:13.060
Right!

03:13.060 --> 03:13.650
Okay!

03:19.100 --> 03:20.850
Incoming!

03:22.520 --> 03:24.350
Okay, yeah, that's terrifying!

03:24.810 --> 03:26.350
Dig in those heels, men!

03:30.650 --> 03:32.150
Hold fast!

03:33.350 --> 03:34.350
Rodin!

03:42.020 --> 03:43.810
The bait team lures the boar in.

03:43.940 --> 03:47.520
Then the tank team holds it in place.
And finally, the strike team attacks its vitals.

03:47.980 --> 03:51.020
This is the method my dad and the
others have used to hunt successfully

03:51.020 --> 03:52.690
for over 10 years without any talents!

03:53.230 --> 03:55.190
It's almost time! Please get ready!

03:55.190 --> 03:56.270
S-sure thing!

03:56.940 --> 04:01.150
It was a mistake to count on weenies like them
to tank anything in the first place.

04:01.520 --> 04:02.350
Mr. Gerda!

04:02.690 --> 04:04.900
Better not spear me in the ass by mistake!

04:04.900 --> 04:05.810
Y-yessir!

04:05.980 --> 04:10.100
They should only need to attack it
once to gain experience from the battle!

04:10.270 --> 04:11.690
Good! Strike now!

04:18.150 --> 04:19.730
I can feel power flowing through me!

04:20.060 --> 04:23.190
Does that mean we overcame a Trial of the Gods?

04:23.560 --> 04:26.020
Oh, thank the Lord!

04:27.020 --> 04:29.150
Sweet! Just as planned!

04:29.230 --> 04:31.190
Sounds like they leveled up.

04:31.770 --> 04:34.940
Since boars are C-rank monsters,
they must have gained a lot of EXP!

04:35.480 --> 04:37.400
How did I make out?

04:37.650 --> 04:39.350
Damn! I got squat!

04:39.600 --> 04:44.940
Ugh. Figures that it doesn't consider me
part of the battle for just standing nearby.

04:45.100 --> 04:45.850
Allen!

04:46.810 --> 04:48.310
Your advice made all the difference!

04:48.310 --> 04:49.310
Thank you!

04:49.730 --> 04:51.730
Great. You're welcome.

04:52.480 --> 04:56.600
This sucks. A victory laced
with the bitter taste of defeat.

04:57.770 --> 05:00.850
Yo, Allen! You coming along on today's hunt?

05:01.190 --> 05:03.150
Yep! I'll be there to watch as usual.

05:03.520 --> 05:07.810
But do me a favor. Tell my dad
he should let me try wielding a spear, too!

05:07.900 --> 05:11.600
No can do. Rodin would kick our butts
for even suggesting it.

05:11.810 --> 05:15.230
I'm jealous. Wish I could join the hunt, too.

05:15.230 --> 05:17.980
Then put down your butcher's knife for once
and tag along.

05:17.980 --> 05:21.230
Not when my wife's got a kid in her belly!

05:21.230 --> 05:23.980
I've gotta play it safe for her sake.

05:23.980 --> 05:24.690
Fair.

05:25.020 --> 05:28.650
But I'm always happy to have
more monster meat to carve up!

05:28.850 --> 05:30.060
Oh?

05:30.650 --> 05:31.770
Hey, pops.

05:31.810 --> 05:34.230
I ain't that old yet, kid. What's up?

05:34.350 --> 05:36.190
Can I ask you for a favor?

05:38.770 --> 05:40.940
So, what did you need?

05:41.850 --> 05:44.810
Whoa! These are albaherons!

05:44.810 --> 05:46.730
I was hoping you'd butcher them for me.

05:46.980 --> 05:49.060
There are just too many for me to handle.

05:49.190 --> 05:52.560
I'll give you two packs of meat
for each one you take care of.

05:52.600 --> 05:55.100
Really now? You sure?

05:55.310 --> 05:56.020
Yes!

05:57.310 --> 05:58.900
These aren't part of our food reserves.

05:59.190 --> 06:01.100
I need him to break down the carcasses
so I can sell the meat.

06:01.730 --> 06:06.350
I have to use something to earn those 50 gold
coins to get my family out of serfdom, after all.

06:06.850 --> 06:10.350
It would cost extra to have
a butcher in town do it, anyways.

06:10.850 --> 06:14.440
So it's better to just outsource the job here,
which also means fewer trips overall.

06:14.650 --> 06:16.400
Gotta make the most of my time!

06:19.440 --> 06:21.310
Are you guys sure about this?

06:21.310 --> 06:24.560
Absolutely. We already
pulled it off once. Don't freak out.

06:25.060 --> 06:29.310
By gradually adding new people to the team,
we'll eventually have enough to make two groups.

06:29.310 --> 06:31.350
That should double the
amount of boars we can hunt.

06:31.900 --> 06:36.100
But I wish I knew why the baron
was so hung up on having more boars.

06:36.350 --> 06:40.190
I don't get the impression his territory
is suffering from food shortages.

06:40.190 --> 06:42.100
Boar incoming!

06:44.600 --> 06:45.400
Brace yourselves!

06:46.940 --> 06:47.900
Attack now!

06:50.690 --> 06:52.190
Get over here, newbies!

07:01.850 --> 07:04.900
I can feel it! Another Trial of the Gods complete!

07:04.900 --> 07:05.900
Same here!

07:05.900 --> 07:07.480
Wow! You're right!

07:07.810 --> 07:09.480
I feel so much stronger!

07:09.900 --> 07:10.600
Oh?

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>YOUR EXP HAS REACHED THE MAX OF 2000/2000.</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>YOU HAVE GONE UP TO LEVEL 3.</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>HP HAS GONE UP BY 25</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>MP HAS GONE UP BY 40</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>ATTACK HAS GONE UP BY 14</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>ENDURANCE HAS GONE UP BY 14</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>AGILITY HAS GONE UP BY 26</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>INTELLIGENCE HAS GONE UP BY 40</b>

07:10.900 --> 07:13.400
<b>LUCK HAS GONE UP BY 26</b>

07:11.020 --> 07:12.940
Hell yeah! My plan worked!

07:13.400 --> 07:15.310
And I even leveled up!

07:13.400 --> 07:16.100
<b>YOU HAVE GONE UP TO LEVEL 3.</b>

07:16.190 --> 07:17.560
Just before the fight...

07:19.980 --> 07:21.350
Go, Denka!

07:21.690 --> 07:26.900
My creatures can be summoned to any location
that I can mark by sight within a 50 meter radius.

07:28.440 --> 07:30.810
And as long as the boar attacks
one of my creatures,

07:30.810 --> 07:32.940
it's enough to count me
as a participant in the battle!

07:33.270 --> 07:35.060
<b>YOU HAVE GONE UP TO LEVEL 3.</b>

07:35.770 --> 07:39.690
All is grist when it comes to the mill!
That's the hardcore gamer mindset!

07:42.270 --> 07:43.690
Sorry, Denka.

07:44.230 --> 07:46.350
R.I.P.

07:47.560 --> 07:51.150
<b>3 MONTHS LATER</b>

07:48.560 --> 07:51.810
This world apparently shares the custom
of celebrating the start of the new year,

07:52.020 --> 07:54.600
which led to me being invited
to the chieftain's residence for the first time.

07:54.850 --> 07:57.270
Those candies were yummy, huh, Allen?

07:57.270 --> 07:59.900
Totally! And we even got some gifts to take home.

08:00.350 --> 08:04.480
I assume this is supposed to be the reward
for successfully meeting the 15 boar quota.

08:05.810 --> 08:07.100
We're home!

08:07.100 --> 08:08.270
Ah, welcome back.

08:08.440 --> 08:10.190
Did you have a good time at the chieftain's place?

08:10.310 --> 08:13.900
Yep! You two should have come with us.

08:14.100 --> 08:16.900
Sitting through all that pomp and circumstance
is a boring way to start the new year.

08:17.190 --> 08:18.940
Now, let's get this party started!

08:19.060 --> 08:19.900
Mm-hmm!

08:23.730 --> 08:24.650
Yum!

08:32.850 --> 08:34.440
Does it taste good, Mash?

08:34.440 --> 08:36.600
Yeah! It's nummy, big brudder!

08:37.270 --> 08:38.520
Ain't that nice?

08:38.730 --> 08:41.400
So, did the chieftain
have anything to say about us?

08:41.560 --> 08:43.520
Yeah, he was really appreciative.

08:43.730 --> 08:47.440
Given how things are going, we shouldn't have
a problem meeting the quota of 20 boars this year.

08:48.150 --> 08:50.400
It's all thanks to Allen and his plan
to train the newbies.

08:51.560 --> 08:53.060
By the way, Allerino...

08:53.060 --> 08:53.770
Yes?

08:53.980 --> 08:58.650
Do my eyes deceive me, or is that
a special bottle of something behind you?

08:58.650 --> 09:00.850
Oh, this? It's liquor.

09:00.850 --> 09:02.730
The chieftain gave it to me as a gift.

09:05.810 --> 09:07.100
Hook, line, sinker.

09:07.230 --> 09:08.770
Now to reel 'em in.

09:08.770 --> 09:12.310
Oh, hey, Mash!
Want to do more spear training soon?

09:12.310 --> 09:13.270
Yeah!

09:13.270 --> 09:14.520
I wanna train, too!

09:14.810 --> 09:17.480
Forget it. You're already strong enough, Krena.

09:17.480 --> 09:19.940
We gotta nurture Mash
cuz he has the makings of a spear user.

09:19.940 --> 09:21.100
Oh yeah?

09:21.100 --> 09:21.690
What's the deal?

09:22.230 --> 09:23.150
Dunno.

09:23.400 --> 09:25.560
That's it. Like moths to the flame...

09:25.690 --> 09:26.900
Is something the matter?

09:27.100 --> 09:30.690
Well, ya know, since the chieftain
sent you home with that liquor...

09:30.770 --> 09:33.230
Yep! It was a gift he gave to me!

09:33.230 --> 09:34.600
Oh, come on!

09:34.980 --> 09:37.520
Let's not be silly now, kid.

09:37.690 --> 09:40.060
What's so silly? He gave it to me, so it's mine-

09:40.060 --> 09:42.350
But everybody knows
you're not old enough to drink it!

09:42.350 --> 09:43.440
Yeah, what he said!

09:43.600 --> 09:45.520
Well, shucks.

09:45.520 --> 09:48.230
I guess I'll let you have it,
but only if you beat me in a contest.

09:48.230 --> 09:49.060
A contest?!

09:49.150 --> 09:50.940
Huh? What do you mean?

09:51.020 --> 09:52.560
You against the two of us?

09:52.560 --> 09:53.650
That's right.

09:53.980 --> 09:55.690
Fine by me. You're on!

09:55.900 --> 09:57.100
Wait, Gerda!

09:57.100 --> 09:58.350
Okay, but...

09:58.730 --> 10:01.060
What do I get from you if I win?

10:02.060 --> 10:04.690
Boo! Are you two really that stingy?

10:05.060 --> 10:07.270
Well, why don't you tell us what you want?

10:07.270 --> 10:08.850
If I win the contest...

10:09.020 --> 10:11.480
you have to let me wield a spear
during all the boar hunts this year.

10:12.850 --> 10:16.650
We walked right into his trap.
He's a smart little cookie.

10:17.020 --> 10:17.900
I'll be damned.

10:19.600 --> 10:20.560
All right.

10:21.060 --> 10:24.980
If we win, we get the liquor.
And if you win, you can fight in the boar hunts.

10:24.980 --> 10:25.980
No take-backs!

10:26.230 --> 10:27.270
Oh jeez...

10:27.270 --> 10:30.810
I don't see a problem with it.
We could use a little entertainment!

10:31.190 --> 10:33.850
So, what kind of contest did you have in mind?

10:33.900 --> 10:35.230
Arm wrestling, of course!

10:35.230 --> 10:36.900
Arm wrestling?!

10:39.900 --> 10:41.020
Bring it on.

10:42.810 --> 10:45.980
Sorry, kid. But I ain't going easy on you.
Not with liquor on the line.

10:47.230 --> 10:50.650
I stocked my inventory
full of Fido cards just for this.

10:50.810 --> 10:52.350
All buffs into attack power!

10:52.650 --> 10:55.980
Not to mention, I'm level six now!
I've got this in the bag!

10:57.480 --> 10:58.350
Get ready...

10:58.980 --> 10:59.730
and go!

11:06.060 --> 11:08.560
Whoa. What the-? Aw hell!

11:09.270 --> 11:11.600
Aw hell! Aw hell! Allen!

11:11.600 --> 11:13.190
Whoa there!

11:13.190 --> 11:15.230
Aaaaand BAM!

11:15.520 --> 11:17.270
Dammit! I lost!

11:17.270 --> 11:18.650
You're so cool, Big brudder!

11:18.770 --> 11:20.900
Whew! That was a close one!

11:21.150 --> 11:26.310
From what I can tell, Gerda's attack stat
must be somewhere between 150 and 200.

11:27.020 --> 11:30.440
Okay, Allen. I'll wait until
the soreness in your arm wears off.

11:35.060 --> 11:38.810
Oh, wow. I never realized
how calloused Dad's hands were...

11:39.310 --> 11:41.600
It's proof of how hard he works for us every day.

11:42.310 --> 11:43.980
So big and hulking.

11:44.980 --> 11:45.980
It's hard to believe.

11:46.440 --> 11:48.980
My son's old enough
to wanna compete with his old man.

11:49.520 --> 11:52.730
The earlier you all treat me
like an adult, the better!

11:52.940 --> 11:55.600
I've gotta put in a hundred times more effort
than everybody else!

11:56.100 --> 11:58.690
And it all starts with raising my stats
by leveling up!

11:59.350 --> 12:00.770
Okay, get ready...

12:01.350 --> 12:02.150
and go!

12:14.270 --> 12:16.020
Rodin takes it!

12:16.020 --> 12:17.520
Aw yeah!

12:17.900 --> 12:19.270
Guess I've gotta take the L...

12:19.560 --> 12:22.600
His attack stat has to be over 300 at least!

12:23.520 --> 12:25.520
You win this one, Dad.

12:25.810 --> 12:26.850
Here. It's yours.

12:27.440 --> 12:27.850
Look.

12:27.850 --> 12:29.600
Hooray! Time to drink!

12:29.600 --> 12:30.560
Yeah!

12:32.150 --> 12:35.810
Considering their strength,
Gerda's attack stat is around D-rank.

12:35.810 --> 12:38.150
While Dad's is more like C-rank.

12:38.150 --> 12:42.900
That at least gives me a reference for how strong
the people playing on normal mode can get.

12:43.310 --> 12:45.560
You should know better
than to go so hard on a child!

12:45.730 --> 12:48.100
Don't let it get you down, Allen.

12:48.310 --> 12:48.810
Huh?

12:49.230 --> 12:51.020
Oh, I guess they thought I looked upset.

12:51.310 --> 12:54.230
They're right. You're not weak by any means.

12:54.230 --> 12:56.060
I'm just too strong is all!

12:56.440 --> 12:59.400
But you're not hunting any boars
until you have what it takes to beat me!

13:00.100 --> 13:01.810
Nice. I'm gonna hold him to that.

13:01.980 --> 13:05.150
I stand a decent shot of making that happen
if I can get to summon level four before fall!

13:05.400 --> 13:08.060
Okay, Dad. I'll give up on hunting for now!

13:08.060 --> 13:09.690
But I'll beat you eventually!

13:10.730 --> 13:13.190
Hey, Mathilda! We need more snackage!

13:13.190 --> 13:15.690
You two better give it a rest!

13:15.690 --> 13:18.480
C'mon, it's the new year! Let me have my fun!

13:18.770 --> 13:20.810
Just bring me something to snack on, already!

13:23.440 --> 13:25.060
Okay. You were saying?

13:25.480 --> 13:26.520
Nothing.

13:27.770 --> 13:31.020
Mathilda might lowkey have C-rank stats, too...

13:31.980 --> 13:36.020
<b>THE HARDCORE GAMER DOMINATES</b>

13:31.980 --> 13:36.020
<b>IN ANOTHER WORLD WITH GARBAGE BALANCING</b>

13:36.400 --> 13:39.480
<b>ALLEN - AGE 7</b>

13:36.400 --> 13:39.480
<b>JUNE</b>

13:36.940 --> 13:39.810
My summon level finally went up again!

13:39.480 --> 13:43.440
<b>ENHANCE SKILL HAS REACHED</b>

13:39.480 --> 13:43.440
<b>THE MAX EXP OF 100000/100000.</b>

13:39.480 --> 13:43.440
<b>YOU HAVE REACHED ENHANCE LEVEL 4.</b>

13:39.480 --> 13:43.440
<b>YOU HAVE REACHED SUMMMON LEVEL 4.</b>

13:39.480 --> 13:43.440
<b>YOU HAVE REACHED GRIMOIRE EXPANSION LEVEL 3.</b>

13:39.480 --> 13:43.440
<b>YOU HAVE OBTAINED THE STORAGE SKILL.</b>

13:40.270 --> 13:42.650
That's a lot of new info.

13:43.440 --> 13:45.810
Better check my stats page.

13:46.480 --> 13:50.520
Oh! I've unlocked E-rank summon creatures!
And even a new type!

13:50.730 --> 13:54.350
Seems I have to fuse them together again
to find out what kind exactly.

13:54.350 --> 13:58.150
But I have plenty of MP to spare this time,
so I can experiment freely!

13:58.480 --> 14:00.940
My card inventory went up by 10, too!

14:01.400 --> 14:04.600
The amount of buffs that summon creatures
provide scale by their level,

14:04.600 --> 14:08.690
so I should get a significant boost
if I fill my inventory with 40 E-rank cards.

14:09.190 --> 14:11.940
I can totally beat Dad at arm wrestling now!

14:13.100 --> 14:15.600
<b>STORAGE</b>

14:13.850 --> 14:15.060
"Storage"?

14:15.600 --> 14:18.400
No level number next to it,
so it must be a fixed skill?

14:22.150 --> 14:24.270
Uh... is that a hole?

14:26.230 --> 14:27.730
Coming through!

14:28.650 --> 14:29.940
Seems pretty deep.

14:33.690 --> 14:35.350
I didn't hear it hit the bottom...

14:39.940 --> 14:42.100
Ah! It's the stone I threw in earlier.

14:41.810 --> 14:46.600
<b>ITEM OVERVIEW</b>

14:41.810 --> 14:46.600
<b>STONE: 1 COUNT</b>

14:42.480 --> 14:45.900
So, I can call up a mental image
of the items I've stored, huh?

14:46.650 --> 14:48.270
Okay. Time to experiment!

14:48.850 --> 14:50.440
Yeet. Yeet.

14:50.810 --> 14:52.520
Yeet! Yeet! Yeet! Yeet!

14:52.650 --> 14:58.770

14:52.650 --> 14:58.770

14:52.650 --> 14:58.770
<b>FIREWOOD:</b>

14:52.650 --> 14:58.770
<b>WATER:</b>

14:53.100 --> 14:56.310
Okay, so, I can put anything
in this hole as long as it fits.

14:56.310 --> 14:58.310
No limits on the amount, either.

14:59.350 --> 15:02.400
Weird. This feels very wrong.

15:04.020 --> 15:08.440
One major aspect of games
is how many items the player can hold.

15:09.310 --> 15:14.310
So why are they giving me a god-tier storage skill
at this particular point in time?

15:15.230 --> 15:18.600
Whether it's a key, a boat, or a magic carpet...

15:19.020 --> 15:22.520
items are usually obtained
around the time they become necessary.

15:23.060 --> 15:25.480
Why? Because that's how
the devs design it, of course.

15:26.190 --> 15:28.810
Is something wrong, Allen? You're so quiet.

15:28.810 --> 15:30.900
Oh, nothing! I'm fine.

15:31.350 --> 15:33.480
There must be a reason behind this.

15:33.770 --> 15:36.400
Something that makes it necessary
to have right now.

15:38.270 --> 15:41.190
Time to play around with the E-rank summons.

15:41.190 --> 15:43.060
Let's go! Create: Insect E!

15:44.100 --> 15:45.560
Huh? Why didn't it work?

15:45.980 --> 15:47.520
Do I not have enough MP?

15:48.190 --> 15:50.060
But I just recovered it back to full...

15:51.600 --> 15:53.810
<b>YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH E-RANK MAGIC STONES</b>

15:53.810 --> 15:55.400
M-magic stones?!

15:55.400 --> 15:58.060
So creating E-ranks requires items now?

15:58.060 --> 16:00.400
Um, let's see. Where can I get some?

16:00.770 --> 16:01.400
Ah!

16:05.730 --> 16:08.440
With all the stealth of a ninja...

16:13.100 --> 16:16.230
Stored in this bag with all the money
I've earned lately...

16:20.690 --> 16:23.980
I kept some magic stones from the horned rabbits
that wandered into the village.

16:24.350 --> 16:26.270
Being a hoarder pays off!

16:28.440 --> 16:30.270
Okay. Take two.

16:30.770 --> 16:32.310
Create: Insect E!

16:33.150 --> 16:34.190
Bruh.

16:38.060 --> 16:39.770
Oh, right. I should put it in storage.

16:40.730 --> 16:41.600
Yeet!

16:41.980 --> 16:44.480
And now, take three. Create: Insect E!

16:45.520 --> 16:48.400

I'm supposed to use storage for.

16:59.020 --> 16:59.730

16:59.730 --> 17:00.270
Oh crap!

17:00.600 --> 17:01.520

17:01.770 --> 17:04.190
I'm boned. She's gonna notice for sure!

17:04.350 --> 17:06.730

17:06.730 --> 17:10.190
Oh, uhhh... I was like shazam!
And then yowza! Big surprise!

17:10.190 --> 17:12.350

17:18.310 --> 17:20.480
No idea why that worked, but thank God.

17:22.440 --> 17:25.480
Butterfly! Butterfly!

17:25.480 --> 17:27.480
Magic stones in the sk- argh!

17:37.980 --> 17:40.480
My own summon nearly scared the pants off me.

17:40.980 --> 17:43.520
So, Beast E is a saber-toothed tiger, huh?

18:08.310 --> 18:09.230

18:09.600 --> 18:10.310

18:13.480 --> 18:15.190
<b>BIRD E</b>

18:15.190 --> 18:16.940
I figured that was the problem.

18:17.230 --> 18:20.150
This means I'm going to need
a lot of magic stones.

18:21.480 --> 18:22.560
Horned rabbits?

18:23.020 --> 18:24.980
They shouldn't be coming around anymore.

18:25.310 --> 18:25.900
Why?

18:26.350 --> 18:29.440
We made a ditch around
the whole village a couple years back.

18:29.690 --> 18:31.100
Oh, shoot...

18:31.400 --> 18:34.770
Even small monsters like those
can be dangerous to kids.

18:34.900 --> 18:39.440
That's not good. How can I get
more magic stones without any rabbits?

18:42.100 --> 18:43.270
Ow! Ow!

18:44.020 --> 18:48.850
Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!

18:48.850 --> 18:50.980
Hey, Pelmoas. Got a minute?

18:51.980 --> 18:56.190
I heard you're pretty smart.
What can you tell me about magic stones?

18:56.770 --> 19:02.520
Magic stones? They're small gems that are embedded
in monsters close to their hearts.

19:02.980 --> 19:05.730
They're mostly used to power magic tools.

19:06.190 --> 19:09.190
Magic tools are items that activate
when used with magic stones.

19:09.480 --> 19:12.100
They have many different types of them
in the royal capital.

19:12.350 --> 19:13.440
Oh really?

19:13.810 --> 19:16.900
D and C-rank stones can be useful
for people in the capital.

19:17.100 --> 19:19.400
But E-rank stones are basically just trash.

19:19.770 --> 19:21.940
You can usually find them lying on the ground.

19:23.520 --> 19:24.100
See?

19:24.270 --> 19:25.230
Wow!

19:26.600 --> 19:27.230
Here.

19:27.520 --> 19:28.730
Thank you!

19:29.020 --> 19:29.650
You're welcome.

19:30.480 --> 19:33.440
Guess I'll need to scavenge
around the village for them.

19:33.980 --> 19:35.650
Time to call in backup.

19:37.810 --> 19:41.730
I was able to gather a bunch of magic stones
thanks to the help from some villagers.

of abilities they have!

19:54.600 --> 19:55.650

19:58.480 --> 19:59.850

20:45.400 --> 20:47.850
Wally? Tama?! Papillon?!

20:50.270 --> 20:51.690
Did I just hallucinate that?

20:55.310 --> 21:00.980
For these past seven years, I've been considering
exactly how a Summoner is supposed to play.

21:01.600 --> 21:04.560
I could read a game FAQ or walkthrough
for any other game,

21:04.810 --> 21:06.900
but that isn't an option here.

21:07.940 --> 21:12.190
I have to figure out how to tap
into a Summoner's full potential all by myself.

21:13.150 --> 21:18.270
At this point, I'm convinced that each summon type
is designed to fulfill a specific role in battle.

21:20.270 --> 21:21.480
