This show contains scenes that some viewers may find disturbing. Viewer discretion is advised.
Every morning, Mother heads
to the field as the sun comes up.
"I need help with picking medicinal herbs."
"Thank you very much."
There!
She always works her
hardest for Helina and me.
Which is why
Hi there. It's me, Arc.
And my momentous first job is going to
be guarding someone collecting medicinal herbs.
Oh, you mean Seona's place.
It's just beyond the plaza.
It's the perfect kind of dull but meaningful job
for a guy trying to keep a low profile.
Let's head over there!
Go!
What a nice, peaceful place.
This must be it.
Helina, come here.
You've got crumbs all over your mouth.
Fhank yoo.
Coming!
How can I help
you?!
A-A knight?
I-Is there anything I can do for you?
Is Miss Marca available?
Huh?
U-Um, I'm Marca, actually.
Oh, it's you.
I've come to accept the job that was posted.
D-Do you mean my request?
Indeed.
The request for protection
while picking herbs.
The guard job for picking
herbs over in Rata Village?
You're serious about this?
You'd be able to take much bigger jobs
if you joined up with a mercenary guild, y'know.
Heck no!
I'm not doing anything
that risks exposing my identity.
Well, I've got a bit
of an interest in herb picking.
It should prove amusing.
Is that right?
Well, make sure you're
gentle with the client.
Gentle?
Here you go.
Well, that explains what he meant
I'm sorry,
but does someone as impressive as you
really want to accept my job, Sir Knight?
I do.
In fact, I've got a bit
of an interest in picking herbs.
Thank goodness!
Plus, this is the exact kind
of early-game quest you start with!
Huh?
My apologies! It's a personal matter.
Now, regarding the specifics of the job
Um, Sir Knight?
is it all right if we head out right now?
Right away? That's not a problem, but
Wonderful!
Let me just get ready!
Miss Marca, is this job
a matter of some urgency?
The posting mentioned how fanged boars
have been appearing around the village,
necessitating protection
But I'm curious
as to the reason for your haste.
My mother will be coming home soon.
And if she knew, she'd be against it
She would?
Yeah.
So please don't tell her.
But why?
My father died last year
And Mother has been
raising us by herself since.
That's quite admirable.
Picking herbs was Father's job
So I thought it'd help
if I could do it for her instead.
I want to make her happy.
Talk about noble!
And she's still a little girl!
All I did when I was her age
was play video games
Still did that after growing up, actually.
Um, Sir Knight?
Then let us gather many herbs,
so that your mother will be pleased.
Right!
This is quite deep into the woods.
Look here, Sir Knight!
This one is called cocora.
It helps with cuts and scrapes,
and is good for the skin.
And you can burn this flower
to keep bugs away.
You're quite knowledgeable, Miss Marca.
No ledge a bull?
You're like a teacher, is what I meant.
Father taught me all kinds of things!
If we go a bit further in,
there's a kobumi tree!
This way, come on!
Miss Marca, get back!
I can sense something. It may be
A monster!
A multi-tailed kitsune
No, a flying squirrel?
It's hurt.
That looks painful.
Come on. It's okay, don't be afraid.
See? Nothing to be afraid of.
It was scared of us.
This is going to be my first time
trying this since I got here.
Let's see if it works.
Sir Knight?
Heal.
Heal
W-Wow! You know how to use healing spells!
You're just like a priest!
I made good use of that monk skill.
It's so cute!
And it knows you helped it, too.
I'm just glad it's feeling better.
Go on, head back to where you came from.
Maybe it wants to follow you?
Uh, I see
You should give it a name!
Green kitsune.
In that case!
How about "Fried Tofu" or "Tempura"?
I don't think it likes those.
In that case
It's tail is fluffy like
a dandelion, or tanpopo
We mix that up for Ponta?
You like that, huh, Ponta?
Good for you, Ponta!
It seems my journey now
has an unexpected companion.
Let's go a bit further in!
Right.
What are you whining about?
They're just some fanged boars.
Those weren't fanged boars!
I've been a hunter a long time,
and I've never seen anything like it
We're better off avoiding
the forest from now on.
Oh, Mrs. Seona!
Did you send Marca on some kind of errand?
No?
Marca should be at home,
watching the house
Well, there's supposed to
be big monsters in the woods now.
And this morning,
I saw Marca leaving the village.
But she had this fancy-looking knight with her,
so I don't think you have to worry
Marca!
This is it!
This slope is a bit perilous.
Miss Marca, let's find a safe route down
Look—
out?
Yes! I knew it!
It's in full bloom!
The kobumi tree is all white!
Just Look at it, Sir Knight!
I'm glad you're enjoying yourself.
Halt, Miss Marca!
Episode 2
A First Job, a Girl's Wish, and an Approaching Shadow
The way Ponta reacts
I guess we know who hurt Ponta, now!
Are you hurt, Miss Marca?
Sir Knight!
Poison fog?
A giant basilisk.
Spits poisonous fog,
has paralyzing claws, and can petrify
A monster with a whole arsenal
of status effect skills.
A player in one of the mid-tier
classes would have trouble
But as long as I am cautious,
I can deal with it!
The way it's moving
if the game is anything to go by
This is bad!
The Holy Shield of Teutates!
I have no intention in seeing
if I can be turned to stone.
Okay, who's the weirdo who decided
that these basilisks needed six legs?!
Four was plenty, wasn't it?!
This is it!
A combat skill belonging to
the top-tier class Sacred Knight:
J
u
d
g
m
e
n
t
Judgment!
It only took one?!
That's crazy strong
Was this skill always so powerful?
Or was I trying too hard?
Well, whatever the case,
it looks like my second monster
slain was a giant basilisk!
A-Amazing
You can rest easy now, Miss Marca.
That was incredible, Sir Knight!
I've only done what's
expected of your guard.
Everyone in town will be surprised!
They will?
Of course!
I bet we'll all be celebrating tonight!
Oh, no!
F-Forgive me, but
Can you keep the specifics
of this creature's death a secret?
But
Please.
I understand.
If you insist, Sir Knight
You have my gratitude.
What's that ring?
S-So scary
The fanged boars that have been
showing up near the village
may have been chased there by this beast.
It's much scarier than any old boar.
Grr, grr!
Miss Marca.
Is that one of the fanged boars in question?
Y-Yes!
I see.
Then we'll make him
into a gift for the village!
Sir Knight, where'd
this fanged boar come from?
I'll be taking the fangs
and rune stone as my reward,
but could you see about tanning the hide?
I intend to hand it over to Miss Marca.
Really?
Hooray!
The meat should be shared
among the villagers.
Sir Knight was really strong, you know!
Marca!
Mother
I'm sorry.
Mother?
I'm just glad you're all right.
So very much
But Marca, why did you go into the woods?
Didn't I tell you not to leave the village?
I
I gathered these.
Marca, you
Madam.
I apologize.
I should have thought more carefully of it.
It was careless of me to take Miss Marca
into the woods without consulting you.
Oh, no, that's
I would ask that you not scold her, please.
I've never met a child
who cares more for her mother.
I know. And thank you.
I'm curious, Sir Knight,
did you run into any danger?
There's been word of a truly
fearsome monster in the forest today.
Oh, no,
there was nothing
in the woods I couldn't handle,
so I wouldn't worry.
That's good to hear.
You're really lucky not to have run
into the abomination, Sir Knight.
Indeed I am! Truly lucky!
Isn't that right, Miss Marca?
Yes!
Sir Knight, thank you again.
No, you taught me
a great deal today, Miss Marca.
Sir Knight, here!
Oh, what have we here?
Is this for me?
Yeah!
There.
I can't imagine a greater reward.
Take care, Ponta.
Well, I suppose I should be on my way.
Um, Sir Knight?
Will I ever see you again?
Surely, some day.
Corner it!
Archers! Fire!
End it now! Lancers, charge!
We killed it!
Hooray!
We won!
Yes!
The casualties amount to 15 dead
and 38 injured.
Could you look at this?
That's worse than expected,
even for dealing with an eight-meter basilisk.
Yes, it was an extremely
powerful specimen
And there's one other bit of news.
There was another?!
Yes.
It seems to have been
slain with a single blow.
Not only that,
but it seems to have been
delivered by a single individual
Someone slayed that beast by themselves?
Unbelievable.
And with a single strike?
They'd have to be a god. Or perhaps
the devil himself.
Ponta, looks like we've
safely completed another job.
Monsters, huh?
I want to keep a low profile.
And that hasn't changed, but
Maybe I should try a more
challenging quest tomorrow!

Fried tofu or tempura, which do you prefer!?
