Reincarnated as a Sword (2022) s01e03 Episode Script

The Arcane Blacksmith is Suspicious

1
Armor…
You're an adventurer now, Fran.
You'll need some good defensive equipment.
Amazing! There are so many things
I've never seen before.
Apparently, Alessa is currently home
to a highly skilled blacksmith.
Come visit my store
if you need armor, little girl.
Who are you?
Appraisal!
What's with this old guy?
His skills and title are incredible.
"Honorary Blacksmith of Granzell"?
So you can use Appraisal, little girl?
Could this old man
be the legendary blacksmith?
How about it? Want to check out my store?
Teacher, what should we do?
Let's go with him but keep our guard up.
Okay. I'll go.
Follow me then.
Is Mr. Garrus going
to sell his items to that girl?
That's such a waste!
That's right. Pay them no mind.
They're just unscrupulous characters
who want to resell my stuff.
There's no way I would sell to them.
But you'll sell them to me?
I happened to come across your battle
at the Adventurer's Guild.
I would gladly sell my wares
to someone of your abilities.
I only allow true adventurers
to have my wares.
You passed the test.
It fits me perfectly.
It suits you well, Fran.
Thank you.
What do you think? They're the real deal.
These items have excellent stats.
Fire, physical,
paralysis, magic…
They have resistance against all of those.
I can let you have
all of those for 150,000 gold.
Is that really all right?
Such good quality gear…
These items were commissioned by someone
who failed to return from the dungeon.
Dungeon?
That's great, Fran!
I got my first protective gear!
They're not only strong but cute too!
But then again…
Everything here is better than me…
You're right.
All right.
Let's have him show us his swords
for research purposes.
I'd like to take a look
at your swords too, please.
What? You already have
a fine sword, don't you?
It's my first time seeing one of those.
That's an Intelligence Weapon, isn't it?
How does he know about me?
EPISODE 3:
THE ARCANE BLACKSMITH IS SUSPICIOUS
Appraisal?
But I have the ability to block Appraisal.
Even the Guild Master
wasn't able to read us.
How do you know that?
My eyes are special, you see.
I have Godsight.
So it's due to his extra skill.
Even if you put up a block,
you won't fool me.
Especially when it comes to weapons.
It's not a sword that can be compared
with the ones over there.
This one's a powerful sword.
You lie!
There are plenty of weapons
stronger than me!
-Teacher!
-It just spoke, didn't it?
-Was that Telepathy?
-Oh, crap!
Don't worry.
I'm just curious as a blacksmith.
I'm sure Garrus isn't a bad guy.
You're right.
I guess it can't hurt.
Thank you.
Considering your stats,
you don't need another sword from me.
But your swords are more powerful.
Like that one over there, for instance.
If we're just talking
about attack stats, then yes.
I see.
You don't know much
about mana conductivity, do you?
-Mana conductivity?
-Mana conductivity?
Now that you mentioned it,
I think I did notice something
when my Appraisal leveled up…
As the saying goes, one eyewitness
is better than ten hearsays.
Unsheathe your sword.
What do you want to do?
This sword has an attack stat of 450.
Imbue 100 MP into the sword
and wield it.
What? Okay.
Here I go.
What? Seriously?
Teacher, you're super sharp!
Your mana conductivity rank is A.
That means 200% conductivity.
With 100 MP,
your attack stat can be boosted by 200.
That means…
ATK 392 + 200
MP 1650 / 1650
My attack is actually 592?
According to my estimation,
you'll be fine
even if she imbues 1,000 MP into you.
Really? If I have more than 1,000 MP,
does that mean
my attack will exceed 2,000?
There is no doubt that
you are a powerful magic weapon.
Really?
You're a nice guy, old man!
Don't worry, Fran.
It looks like I am strong, after all.
I said so from the start, didn't I?
Teacher is an amazing and powerful sword.
Fran!
Teacher!
But I do wonder who created you.
And what is your name?
This is Teacher!
He is the most powerful sword of all!
I'm afraid I have no recollection
of these memories at all.
Are you able to tell anything
with your Godsight, sir?
But given the fact that you can speak
and you are beyond my level of skill,
you must have been forged
by a Divine Blacksmith.
Divine Blacksmith?
Yes.
They are legendary blacksmiths
who are capable of creating
extraordinary weapons that are able
to tear the skies and lands apart.
There were only five in existence.
Does that mean I am a legendary sword?
You're lacking a little caliber
to be considered a legendary weapon…
The legendary sword I was fortunate enough
to have laid eyes on
was the sword of flame, Ignis.
IGNIS
SWORD OF FLAME
Terribly sorry.
I cannot even hope to compare.
I'm afraid that's all I know.
Not at all.
You've been very helpful. Thank you.
So you guys still want another sword?
No. I'm more than enough.
But could we ask you to
make me a scabbard?
No problem.
I'll make you the best scabbard there is!
This is heavy…
Oh, right. Would you be able
to find some use for these?
These are materials
from D-ranked and C-ranked monsters!
I'll be able to make much stronger
protective equipment with these.
Really?
Oh, but we might not have enough money…
How about paying me
with the remaining materials?
Is that all right?
Oh, rest assured, I won't make a loss.
But I can make
great protective gear with these.
High-quality goods
that low-ranked adventurers
won't be able to afford.
I'll purchase any other materials I need…
Well, sir…
Oh, sorry.
I haven't felt so fired up in a while.
It looks like an incredible adventure
awaits you both.
So I'll have to put some good effort
into those items.
That would be wonderful!
Thank you, Garrus.
This is great, Fran.
I can have the scabbard ready
in three days.
Give me a month for your protective gear.
Okay. I look forward to them.
That's one thing settled.
Now, Fran, would you need
some undergarments perchance?
What? Undergarments?
I can fight just fine without those.
Absolutely not!
That is unsightly
of an adorable girl such as you!
Follow me! I'll see that you get some.
For a fair-skinned, dark-haired,
dark-eyed, and dark-eared beauty like you,
black underwear will suit you perfectly!
Black?
We also have these and these…
Oh, this might be a little mature…
We have lots of other clothes too.
Feel free to take a look around.
Well, it can't hurt to look around
since you're already here.
You're so cute, Fran!
You look amazing in everything!
That's right! Fran is a natural beauty!
Come again, Fran!
Thank you.
The lady from the clothing store
helped you find everything you needed
and did us a great favor.
Now, we'll need some cooking equipment
and spices for our travels.
That's a top priority.
Is this the place the lady
from the clothing store mentioned?
Welcome to Saber-Tooth.
He's huge!
Is this a general store?
Yes. We're often mistaken
for a weapon shop,
but this is a general store, all right.
He doesn't seem too reliable…
Appraisal!
NAME: RUFUS, CLASS: MERCHAN
A general store owner with 150 STR?
He is basically
an intermediate adventurer!
Are you an adventurer?
Oh, I used to be.
I retired three years ago
and opened this place.
From your appearance,
you must be a Black Cat.
-Are you an adventurer too?
-Yes.
I see.
Well, feel free to take a look around.
They have a huge variety of spices!
A nice collection of tableware too.
Come again!
I will.
With these, I'll be able to
prepare you some proper food.
Really?
I want to eat your cooking! Right now!
All right, all right…
Let's find an inn to stay in first.
The guild card appears to work
as an identity card as well.
As long as you have one,
even a child can stay
at an inn all by herself.
Being an adventurer
comes with a lot of perks!
This room looks decent.
Teacher, this is our room, right?
Yes. Is something the matter?
It's an amazing room!
Well, no.
It's not that great. It's pretty normal.
I've never been
in such a comfortable room before.
Feels like I'm dreaming…
Fran…
It has been surprise after surprise
since meeting you.
This is all thanks to you, Teacher.
Fran…
Is that so?
From now on, you'll get to stay in rooms
like this as much as you want.
Really?
Yes. You won't have to worry
about food either.
Yay!
-I can't wait to taste Teacher's cooking!
-I definitely will…
I will protect you and look after you
until the day you evolve.
That's a promise.
Yes. It's a promise.
I must have come to this world for Fran.
All right. Time to make dinner.
Teacher's cooking!
What would you like to eat?
Meat!
All right. We have all the spices too.
Let's give it a whirl.
I'm excited!
My special fried chicken
made with spices from another world!
How is the taste?
What is this? Magic? It's super tasty!
Really? I'm glad you like it.
You can make lots of delicious dishes
as long as you have spices after all.
Spices are amazing!
With all these spices,
I might even be able to make curry.
I feel so blessed and satisfied.
Thank you for the food, Teacher.
Okay. Your belly is full now.
Tomorrow, we'll start taking on quests.
Let's have a strategy meeting
on becoming stronger!
Let's decide how we'll be using
my Evo points moving forward.
Yes. Recovery magic.
That's what I thought too.
Donadrond's instant recovery
during battle was amazing.
I agree.
With our current level and equipment,
we'll need a lot more resistance skills
to take on stronger monsters.
I considered Doppelganger too,
but let's max out recovery magic first.
You'll be able to use it
with skill sharing.
Oh, we need to increase Sword Art
and Sword Technique too.
But that'll use up a lot of points.
Fran, do you have any other…
I want to become stronger with Teacher…
Oh, dear,
she's even drooling in her sleep…
Well, I suppose it can't be helped.
You've worked very hard today as well.
Sweet dreams, Fran.
This is a potion ingredient, Heal Grass.
I believe this berry
has antidotal properties.
Quests for G-ranked adventurers
are rather limited,
mostly consisting of mundane tasks
such as gathering herbs.
The only monster-related quests
would be subjugating Level 3 goblins.
These are Stamina Shrooms.
Use them in dishes to recover stamina.
Thanks to our foraging,
herbology, and culinary skills,
these jobs are a breeze.
Fran, you must be happy
learning all of this.
That's not the face of someone
who enjoys this!
Well, we can't do much for now.
This is part of an adventurer's job too.
Sounds like a battle.
I'll check it out.
Let's go!
Lily, Crull,
forget about me and get out of here.
Don't give up, Eustace!
Why are there so many of them?
There were only supposed to be three!
If only I didn't make us go deeper…
Goblins.
Thirteen of them. That's quite a number.
There are even Hobgoblins too.
The odds don't seem to be in their favor…
I'll help them.
I'll buy time to let the others get away.
Take this! This is everything I've got!
-Fire…
-Fire Arrow!
What?
That was amazing, Eustace!
Well, no, that wasn't me…
A kid?
Ten left. Let's do this, Fran!
Teacher… It's on fire.
Yeah, get fired up!
This is your first battle
as an adventurer!
No, the forest is on fire.
Aqua Create!
We can't use fire magic in a forest.
Fran, use earth magic instead.
Remember what we practiced, Fran?
I'll try.
-Stone Barrett!
-Stone Arrow!
Your magic is amazing, Teacher!
My magic abilities increased the power.
It's a shame I can't share them with you.
Seven left.
Double Slash!
Who is that girl?
She's strong!
Stone Barrett!
Fran has risen to Level 4.
Oh, it's Ms. Announcer!
Haven't heard her in a while.
I feel a bit stronger now.
Stone Barrett!
Heavy Slash!
She took care of all of them on her own.
Amazing…
Circle Heal.
This is Level 7 Intermediary Magic!
This is my first time
using recovery magic.
It came in handy right away.
Thank you! You saved us!
You're amazing!
Who are you?
Fran, a G-ranked adventurer.
-G?
-The same rank as us?
Goodbye then.
Wait!
You should have the loot from the goblins.
What should we do?
Let's just take the loot
from the higher goblin.
I'll just take the Hobgoblin loot.
Hobgoblin?
Now that I look at them,
these are goblins with classes…
This is bad.
Isn't this a precursor
of a goblin stampede?
Goblin stampede?
What's that?
You don't know?
When a lot of goblins appear,
there's a high chance
that the Goblin King is around.
An army of goblins led by a king
has a threat level of D.
The higher its leadership,
the more goblins will evolve.
When the Goblin Queen is born,
all offspring produced
by the king and queen will be Hobgoblins.
Their growth rate is alarmingly fast.
They'll create a horde in no time…
and will raise the threat level to C.
They will invade
human territories for food.
That's what we call a goblin stampede.
They can devastate large cities.
This is an emergency.
At this rate…
Even Alessa will be in danger.
We have to report this
to the guild immediately.
What about you?
I…
There were more?
It called for backup!
Go.
But you…
I'll stay back and fend them off.
Fran, are you sure you can handle this?
I want to train.
Getting to take on a bunch of them
is just what I wanted.
And if there's a nest,
we have to destroy it.
All right. As they say, no pain, no gain.
They're coming.
I will break through!
Are you all right, Fran?
Yes, thanks to Garrus' armor.
Okay.
The next one is coming from the front!
Fran has risen to Level 6.
Not enough…
Triple Slash!
Double Slash!
Tri-Explosion!
Now!
Dragon Fang!
Fran has risen to Level 8.
You're steadily leveling up, Fran.
What? Hang on, this is just too many…
Don't push yourself too far, Fran.
Fran!
Earth Wall!
They're coordinating their attacks!
Teacher!
Fire Wall!
This is too dangerous!
Let's retreat for now!
Let me take a look at your injuries!
I can handle this level of pain.
I can still fight…
Fran. Why are you so determined?
I won't…
back down!
