Hi there, it's me, Arc.
After infiltrating the base of some
elf hunters in the village of Diento,

along with Lady Ariane and Danka,
I happened upon some information from a
furry-eared ninja about other kidnapped elves.
A furry-eared ninja! Here we go!
After saving the captive
elves in the hideout,
two of us headed to free the elves
being held at the lord of Diento's palace.
Lady Ariane and I ended up
having to tackle this task alone.
If you're going to do it,
then get it over with,
you flea-dicked bastard!
You always have the most unique reactions.
And those eyes that look at me like I'm trash
They give me the chills!
Udolan, my boy
You accompanied the elf hunters
without permission and failed
And then you had the nerve
to come back alone?
Don't you know how to handle
these elves, you stupid little boy?
Pay attention, and I'll show you.
No!
This is how you handle an elf.
Arc, let's make our way inside
from this bell tower.
The lord's chambers are bound
to be higher in the palace.
How can you be sure?
There's an old saying.
Idiots and smoke like high places.
I'm convinced. Let us move quickly, then.
Where did you come from?!
Whoa there!
Come along quietly!
Do you realize where you are?!
We've already been discovered!
Wyvern Slash!

So much for sneaking in!
Did you see them?!
No, no sign this way.
Where could they have gone?!
Split up and find them!
They're gone.
We managed to weather the trouble
despite the commotion.
There's not much else
we can do. Let's hurry.
Now what?
Master Tryton! Master Tryton!
What are you shouting about?
I-Intruders!
Intruders have breached the palace!
And?
Why haven't you lot dealt with it already?
B-But sir, they're monsters!
What now?!
Wh-Who are you two?
Good evening. I'm Arc.
Hope you don't mind us dropping in so late.
We're here to save you.
It's them!
Miss Ariane!
Why?! How are they here?!
Rude filth!
Who in the bloody hell do you think—
You two can rest easy now.
Th-Thank you
You really did come!
You're not going anywhere.
A hidden room?
Well, what do we have here?
Lady Ariane!
Come look at—
Dirty!
Rotten! Bastard!
You need something?
Uh, no. Don't mind me.
You wretches!
Don't think you'll get away with this!
I'm a Rhoden Kingdom marquis!
Stop talking.
Lady Ariane, isn't that
taking things a bit far?
They broke the treaty first.
I hardly see a problem
in exacting a price for that.
You can do what you want with him.
Get satisfaction.
Lord Tryton! Are you all right?!
Capture the intruders!
Lady Ariane, keep them occupied!
I have matters to attend
to in this hidden room!
Resist and you'll get no mercy!
Fire, I implore you.
Light this sword ablaze!
Miss Ariane!
The two of you need to escape
and meet up with Danka.
Head for Lalatoya.
Right!
This is quite the haul!
"Arc got a gold bar!"
Arc.
I'm finished on this end.
What are you doing?
Lady Ariane
You'd be surprised how much of it
is necessary to rebuild an organization.
"Money", that is.
What are you talking about?
Think for a moment.
Suppose they tried to re-establish
their abduction syndicate,
but we'd deprived them of their funds?
Without the money
they wouldn't be able to
do anything anytime soon.
Well done, Arc.
Yes! She bought it!
Lady Ariane, these explosions
Did you set a fire?
It wasn't me.
We're the only ones who came to the castle,
and Danka should be
escorting the other elves
Well, we should make
ourselves scarce either way.
If it wasn't Lady Ariane, then these
explosions must've been caused by
the furry-eared ninja, perhaps.
And thus, I assume
I've fulfilled my contract.
Yes. And I'm truly grateful.
Is this a sufficient reward?
Although it's not much compared
to the hidden stores you made off with
Many thanks.
Tell me, Arc.
What are you going to do now?
I didn't have anything
in particular in mind.
In that case
would you like to visit
the elf lands with me?
The elf lands?
It's not just this place.
Many of my kin are still being held captive.
I'd like it if you continued helping me.
The land of elves!
Now that sounds fantasy as hell!
I wanna go! I wanna go right now!
But
would they be willing
to welcome an outsider like myself?
We'll need to meet with the elder
and get his permission
I figured we'd have to meet with the brass.
And we must meet this elder, no matter what?
Are you worried?
to prove that I trust you,
I'll introduce you to one of the elders
To the person that I trust the most.
Lady Ariane
I can never remove my armor.
You'd have to at least show your face
when meeting the elder.
Is there a reason?
There's a chance that you may
turn your sword against me
the moment I remove this helmet.
And if I swear not to,
will you show me your face?
At first, I just wanted to help out
this earnest-looking elf girl, but
Traveling with her?
Very well.
Arc
What happened to you?
I'm not sure myself.
I simply found myself in these lands,
with nothing but my altered appearance.
I imagine it must be some kind of curse.
Even if I told her
"I woke up in another world looking
like my video game character"
I doubt she'd understand.
If you were truly undead,
you'd have the corruption of death
And you wouldn't be able to use healing spells
or the power of light to dispel curses.
And there's no way a spirit creature
would be this attached to you.
Arc, you've lent me your strength
to save my comrades.
Which is why
Your secret will be safe among the elves.
If your appearance
is the result of some curse,
the elder may have the knowledge to help.
That would be wonderful.
There's nothing I want more than
to be rid of the curse that affects me.
Then it's decided.
Let me make this official.
I am Ariane Glenys Maple,
a warrior from Maple
in the Great Canada Forest.
I am Arc.
I travel to break the curse upon me.
I'll be at your disposal.
I never thought I'd end up on a journey to
break the curse that I made up
as part of my character's background
It's still late at night,
with only the moon to show the way
But the path set out for me is clear.
Episode 5
A Secret Revealed, and a Bond Forged
Olav, Capital of the Rhoden Kingdom
King
Karlon Delfriet Rhoden Olav
Regarding the matter of Marquis Diento
Do we know who was responsible?
No, Father. Not yet.
First Prince
Sekt Rondahl Karlon Rhoden Sahdiay
There are rumors that the elves
are responsible, however.
Second Prince
Dakares Ciciay Karlon Rhoden Vetran
What makes you deem this
hearsay worth mentioning, Sekt?
"Marquis Diento was
in violation of the treaty,
capturing elves and selling them
to the eastern empire."
Given this previous rumor, it makes sense.
Second Princess
Yuriarna Merol Melissa Rhoden Olav
The marquis? It can't be
Those sound like baseless rumors to me.
Or do you have any proof, Brother Sekt?
What's this?
Are you standing up
for Marquis Diento, Dakares?
I am telling you not to impugn the nobility
of this kingdom with mere rumors!
Calm yourselves.
Dakares is correct.
Do not condemn the marquis
without sufficient cause.
But the fact is, these rumors
do bear further investigation.
Sire.
We should inquire into what's
happened in Diento immediately.
What is your take on this matter, Yuriarna?
I had heard these rumors as well.
And if they are true,
it would not only mean breaking
our treaty with the elves,
but it could raise tensions between
our kingdom and the other nations.
We should ascertain the truth quickly
and arrange to speak with the elves.
If the elves were to seek retribution
by halting their arrangements with Limbult
We would be held responsible
by the other countries.
Yes.
The magical equipment would be bad enough,
but if they were to withhold the rune
stones needed for crop cultivation
We'd be courting uprisings
from our own nobility as well.
Yuriarna,
head to Limbult and make arrangements
so that we might speak with the elves.
As you wish, Father.
That will be all for today.
Good grief.
This has become quite a mess
Such dense woods.
We hardly seem to be making any headway.
Yes. But once we're through here
There we go!
There's better visibility up ahead.
Which means
Lady Ariane,
I will move forward and scout ahead a bit.
Dimension Move!
Ow, ow, ow
It wasn't a bright idea to use that kind of magic
when your line of sight is limited.
T-True.
But it did pay off.
Thank you. Head back to Danka.
Danka and the girls we rescued
are safely on their way to Lalatoya.
That's good to hear.
Lady Ariane.
Are we still a ways from Lalatoya?
It's not that far.
Another two nights and we should be there.
Well, we covered a great distance today.
One fish must not have been enough.
N-Now that you mention it, yes.
But I'll be fine.
Let's see if I can't hunt
down a bull boar or two
Th-Thank you.
I shouldn't wake her.
Just stay quiet.
This should make a nice meal.
Lady Ariane, I'm back—
Oh, Ponta!
Who's a good girl?! Who's a good girl?!
So fuzzy!
You smell wonderful!
So adorable!
Oh, Arc. That was fast.
My, that's a big bull boar.
I suppose we should start cleaning it.
Ponta, I'll be partaking
of your fuzziness later as well.
Stop! Stop, stop, stop!
Princess, your tea is ready.
Thank you, Ferna.
Such a lovely aroma
Princess Yuriarna?
Is something bothering you?
Well
I'm certain that Brother Dakares
is involved in the elf trade.
And Brother Sekt won't stay
quiet about it for long.
True.
Once Prince Dakares is cast down,
the throne will eventually
be yours or Prince Sekt's.
Ferna!
Princess?
You shouldn't speak so carelessly.
Right now, we must focus
on the matter at hand.
The diplomatic mission to Limbult?
Precisely.
The Grand Duchy of Limbult is the only domain
that has trade relations with the elves
We must arrange
for a meeting with the elves
and prevent any potential
conflict from escalating.
Right.
Still, it will be wonderful
to see your sister who married
into the Limbult family after so long.
Yes
I wonder if Sister Seriarna is doing well?
We've nearly arrived.
Once we pass through here
This is the elf settlement of Lalatoya.
Next Time
Learning About the Darkness of This World at the Elf Village
I guess you can't just blow the fish out of the water with magic.
