Reincarnated as a Sword (2022) s01e04 Episode Script

1
I don't think my resolve is strong enough.
I'm still too weak.
I want to be able to use
Teacher's powers to the fullest.
Fran…
That's why…
I need to keep fighting
to become stronger!
I won't get any stronger
if I keep running!
All I thought about was protecting Fran.
I was worried about her getting hurt.
But what Fran wants isn't something
dependent on others.
She doesn't want
a false facade of strength.
She wants true strength that is formed
from overcoming the difficulties
of life and death.
Fran has already made her resolve.
Please support me, Teacher.
As her teacher,
I must prepare myself as well.
Leave the recovery and the back to me.
You just focus on what's in front of you
and slay all those goblins!
Here I go!
Heavy Slash!
Middle Heal!
Are you all right?
I can keep going.
All right. Let's charge on!
Stronger…
I want to become much stronger!
Fran is no longer a weak little kitten.
She is now a ferocious child
with sharpened claws and ambitions!
Fran has risen to Level 12.
My Fran is amazing!
Good grief. What happened to you?
You're covered in bruises and wounds!
What did you guys fight?
Goblins.
How many did you take on
to end up in this state?
One, two… A lot.
We slayed over 100 of them.
A hundred?
Sorry for the short notice, Mr. Garrus,
but could you repair our equipment for us?
Oh, I can do that.
We'll be taking on our first dungeon
to subjugate the goblins
the day after tomorrow.
What did you say?
This is the goblins' nest.
Let's go inside.
No, we can't!
The sun is setting
and you're already exhausted.
There is bound to be more inside.
Let's head back, absorb the crystals,
and return to the town.
Crystal absorb!
Miss Fran, it's us!
Goodness.
This is a mountain heap of goblins.
Did you take them all down on your own?
Yes.
If that's true, your skills are on par
with a D-ranked adventurer.
I found the goblin's nest.
It's over there.
Impossible!
There was no cave here a month ago.
And this doesn't appear to be
any ordinary nest.
I'm afraid this is a dungeon.
Dungeon?
Dungeons can spawn out of nowhere.
Miss Fran, the guild master has asked
to have a word with you.
Would you please return to the town?
Sure, but…
Worry not.
We'll keep watch here.
Got it.
Is it true that there are a lot of goblins
and Hobgoblins in the forest?
How many goblins?
How many Hobgoblins?
A lot…
How much is a lot?
Donadrond, calm down.
Sorry, Miss Fran,
but could you be more specific?
-About 130 goblins.
-About 130 goblins.
-And 20 or so Hobgoblins.
-And 20 or so Hobgoblins.
What?
That's a clear sign of a goblin stampede!
Did any of them retreat during battle?
No, they fought until the very end.
This is a grave situation.
If they didn't flee,
that means there simply isn't a place
for them to retreat to anymore.
That means the nest has been occupied
by stronger and more powerful Hobgoblins.
This is bad.
A dwarf said that
it wasn't a nest but a dungeon.
What?
This means we'll have
to organize a subjugation team.
Issue an emergency recruitment
of all adventurers ranked F and above.
Understood.
Miss Fran,
I would like to ask you
to join the team as well.
To make up for having you
help us with our request,
I will make an exception
and promote you to rank F right now.
Seriously?
But I haven't completed
the required amount of quests…
At present, Alessa only has
Donadrond, a C-rank adventurer,
who we can reliably count on
for this mission.
A crisis is upon us.
There is no time to fuss over specifics.
Moreover,
there is no way an adventurer
who could solo a horde of goblins
can be allowed to stay at rank G.
I see.
So you've ranked up.
Repair!
So this is repair magic?
Yes. This will do.
You're done?
Using this crystal as a catalyst
and imbuing it with mana,
I can essentially restore an item
to its original condition.
This is an Arcane Blacksmith skill.
That sounds unexpectedly simple.
How much does it cost?
Around 10,000 gold.
That's the price of
a one-time-use mana crystal.
That's cheaper than expected.
However, every time you cast a spell
on the same protective gear,
the effect is reduced.
So more catalysts will be required.
The next time,
it'll cost at least 30,000 gold to repair.
I see.
So the effectiveness will go down.
Garrus, what's a dungeon like?
Oh, you don't know?
It is said that the dungeon is a trial
created by the God of Chaos
to test humankind
and it can appear out of the blue.
To be more specific,
a dungeon core appears.
The creatures closest to it
will become the Dungeon Master and become
kith of sorts to the God of Chaos.
Dungeon Masters possess
the intelligence and knowledge
to create a maze using the dungeon core.
Ancient dungeons
often have their own ecology systems
with rare monsters residing within.
You can also find precious minerals
and magic weapons within them.
It is said that these treasures are
the rewards given by the God of Chaos
to those brave and strong enough
to challenge the dungeons.
Here you go.
So the God of Chaos is good?
There are those who believe that.
I can't put it on by myself…
Oh, dear…
But since it's a new dungeon,
you can expect to find
good things in there.
Thank you, Garrus.
Oh right, Teacher.
I'll have your scabbard ready
before you head into the dungeon.
Really? Thank you very much!
We'll be counting on you
to take care of the goblins.
Oh, the stats have gone up considerably!
Is this because you're a Sword Mage?
HUNDRED SLASHER, GOBLIN KILLER, SLAYER
You gained three titles too.
Let's see.
"Goblin Killer, a title given to those
who have slain over 100 goblins."
It even gives a boost to your stats.
That's awesome!
Even recovery magic can't heal
one's mental and spiritual fatigue.
You worked hard today, Fran.
Get some rest.
I want to take a bath.
All right. Hurry back.
You should come with me.
What?
Let's take a bath together.
You were dirtied by the blood.
I want to clean you.
No. I'll pass…
I want to check the skills we have…
W-Wait.
-Hey…
-No. You're coming with me!
Wait. Stop…
Wait…
It's huge!
When it comes to cats, you always have
the impression that they hate baths.
F-Fran, do you like baths?
Yes.
I used to take baths a lot with my mother.
I see…
Does this feel good, Teacher?
Oh, yes…
You over there!
I believe it is against the rules
to bring weapons into the bath.
M-Miss Nell!
That hit the spot!
This inn is run by the guild,
so we receptionists
use the facilities too.
Speaking of which, Fran,
you're not supposed
to bring weapons inside the bath.
I'm sorry.
We fought together today,
so I wanted to clean it.
It's fine.
Oh, right.
You'll be taking part
in the goblin subjugation, right?
I will do my best.
It must be your first time
taking on a dungeon.
I know you're strong,
but don't push yourself too hard.
Thank you, Nell.
That blasted Vice Captain.
It's all because he refused
to mobilize Alessa's knights
that all the work
is being put on the adventurers.
Knights?
That's right.
August, the vice captain of the knights,
is a nobleman
and has a thing against adventurers,
so he refuses to send any knights
to assist in the subjugation.
He is an absolute good-for-nothing!
If only he could just drop dead!
Miss Nell sounds stressed…
If only Amanda were here…
Amanda?
I think I've heard that name before.
Randell mentioned her.
An A-ranked adventurer,
the Guardian of Children, Amanda.
She is our guild's ace.
But all our higher-ranked adventurers
have been sent to investigate
the Marou Plains.
So the effect of my actions
has extended to this too?
Good grief, a dungeon spawning
right now of all times.
The God of Chaos loves to
cause mischief indeed.
What is the God of Chaos like?
Well, from what I've read,
it is said
that everything in this world began
with the appearance of the ten main gods.
The gods of the sun, moon,
sea, land, fire,
storm, forest, and beasts
created this world and life itself.
Then the God of the Underworld
created the Cycle of Samsara
and established the laws of the world.
After that, their descendants,
the 78 gods, painted this world
in a myriad of colors.
The last remaining god,
the Goddess of Chaos,
spread disarray over the world
to cultivate the people to strive
for development and advancement
and to prevent the world
from falling into stagnation.
It is said that dungeons are among
the things of chaos she created.
So the God of Chaos is a goddess.
Is the Goddess of Chaos a good god?
I'm not sure about that.
Is there a God of War?
There is.
To be more precise, there was.
Driven mad by their greed for power,
the God of War turned to evil.
Evil?
After turning to evil,
the God of War gained indomitable power
and challenged the other gods.
But he was defeated,
and his body severed into several pieces
and sealed across the world.
However, the seals
could not contain all the pieces,
and thus, goblins, beasts,
and other monsters were born from them.
We've learned a lot.
So the evil monsters we come across
are all spawns of the evil god.
What?
Fran?
Are you all right?
She overexerted herself
physically and mentally today.
A world where gods are among us?
It makes one realize
that this place is truly otherworldly.
Pardon the intrusion!
We're here, Garrus!
I've been waiting for you two.
Take this with you.
Is that my scabbard?
It looks so cool!
Teacher!
Without further ado…
This really puts me at ease!
Oh, what is this wonderful sensation?
Old man Garrus, this is amazing!
I'm glad you like it.
You look pleased, Teacher.
This is a fantastic scabbard!
And it's no ordinary scabbard.
I added some extra touches.
What did you do to it?
-You see this metal piece here?
-Yes.
Just remove this…
It's a simple mechanism
that allows you to unsheathe yourself
without Fran's help by using Telekinesis.
So convenient!
Thank you, Garrus.
Sure thing.
Teacher, Fran,
all the best on your dungeon debut!
I'm all fired up!
Let's show them what we got, Fran!
Dungeon! I'm so excited!
Attention, everyone!
This afternoon,
we will have a strategy meeting
regarding the goblin subjugation.
So Donadrond is the leader
of the subjugation team.
We've scouted the area with magic.
According to the findings,
the cave before us is a goblin nest
that hosts an alarming number of goblins.
There is no time for us to lose
to stop this goblin stampede
from breaking out!
Our main objective
is to defeat the Goblin King and Queen
to prevent the goblin stampede
from happening.
If possible,
we aim to explore and clear this dungeon
to claim it
under the guild's jurisdiction.
In other words,
we need to defeat the Dungeon Master!
Dungeon Master!
Set up a temporary base
before the operation…
What was that?
Oh, no!
A horde of goblins is charging toward us!
What?
They were quiet up until yesterday!
Don't separate! Stay together!
This is bad.
The recruited adventurers
are splitting up our forces.
Are these guys taking advantage
of the opportunity to attack us?
The Hobgoblins are attacking as a unit.
Yes. They're starting with the adventurers
who underestimated them.
Fran, keep covered
while you make your way to the entrance!
Hey!
Newcomer! Don't get ahead of yourself
and act on your own!
Is this the effect
of the Goblin Killer title?
Fran must be like a demon in their eyes.
I'll help him!
Thanks! You saved me…
Fran, it would attract too much attention
if I absorb the crystals here.
Will it be better inside the cave?
Probably.
But the entrance is completely blocked.
It can't be helped.
Fran, you're still mastering it,
but can you manage that move?
Okay, I'll try.
The skill we acquired
from the Tyrant Saber Tiger,
Midair Jump!
What?
Who is that?
Fran?
That is surprising.
Midair Jump is an advanced skill.
Teacher, magic!
Okay! Let's do this!
Fire magic! Tri-Explosion!
She can use fire magic too?
Sword Technique! Sonic Wave!
The goblins are crammed at the entrance.
This is our chance.
Advanced fire magic.
Flame Magic.
Flare Blast!
As expected of Teacher!
She cleared a path…
Donadrond and the others
can handle
the rest of the goblins out here.
All right. Let's head inside the dungeon!
Hey, Fran!
I feel a little bad
doing this to the seniors,
but my Fran will be seizing all the glory!
The King and the Queen,
I'll defeat them all!
The humans are panicking
because they were caught off guard.
Not only that,
I lucked out and summoned
the highest-level monster!
With this,
the goblin dungeon is invincible!
