The Strongest Sage with the Weakest Crest (2022) s01e05 Episode Script

The Strongest Sage Makes Allies

1
Headmaster, what's the progress
in collecting the materials for the barrier?
I really want to say that it's going smoothly.
You don't have enough people
with the Crest of Honour?
Most of the Crest of Honour holders
in this nation are in the First Royal Academy.
Can we ask the First Royal Academy for help?
It'll be hard.
The First Royal Academy and
the Second Royal Academy are not on good terms.
But it's a perilous time now. We have no choice.
I'll ask His Majesty for help.
This is so rude!
The headmaster from the Second Royal Academy
wants me to come all the way here!
You should've paid me a visit instead.
This is an order from His Majesty.
Besides, there's no distinction
between the headmasters of both the academies.
What did you say?
You can tell who has the higher rank
based on the number of the Crest of Honour!
Deja vu again.
Let's put aside this meaningless argument first.
Let's get to the point.
How is this meaningless?
I'm sure you've heard about the making of
a huge barrier to defend against the demons.
I hope that the students from
the First Royal Academy can help us with it.
I refuse!
The noble First Royal Academy has no reason
to help the lowly Second Royal Academy.
You need to change your perception
towards the crests.
You've watched that contest, right?
A contest that has been interfered
by a demon doesn't count!
He was a student in your academy, right?
How about this?
Let's have another contest then.
The number of the participants is not limited.
The loser has to follow the orders
of the winner.
How about that?
Sure.
But we have a condition.
A condition?
You are not allowed to participate,
your monster!
Same goes to the companions in your party.
-This is too
-Sure.
The date will be set for the day after tomorrow.
When the time comes, we'll regain the honour
that we lost in that last disgraceful defeat.
Look forward to that!
Can we win with that condition?
Yes. And then, he'll have nothing to say.

THE STRONGEST SAGE WITH THE WEAKEST CRES
EPISODE 5: THE STRONGEST SAGE, NEW COMPANION
The First Royal Academy is really well prepared.
If there's any dangerous opponent,
I'll send Iris into the battlefield.
But I can't sense any demons here.
Looks like there's no need for Iris to fight.
Very well. You didn't run away.
Of course. Besides,
there's no need for us to run away.
All of the fighters here are
my excellent students with the Crest of Honour.
Everyone, fight well and win this fight!
What about the Second Royal Academy?
They are coming out now.
What?
Only five?
One with the Crest of Failure,
Two with the Crest of Standard
and two with the Crest of Lesser.
How much do you look down on us?
Let's hurry up and get it started.
Sure. I already know how it'll end.
The Royal Inter-School Contest rematch
will begin now!
The fire magic that runs in my blood.
-They used Wordless Magic!
-Unbelievable!
What are you doing? There are only five of them!
The contest has ended.
The winner is the Second Royal Academy.
Looks like five people are too many.
How is it possible?
I won't accept this result!
Why?
No matter how you look at them,
they are monsters!
I already said that no monster is allowed!
Although those students
are top students in my academy,
they are not that different
from the other students.
Prove it to me then!
You are being unreasonable.
Send that girl into the battlefield!
Are you talking about me?
Sure. But I don't have any weapon with me.
You can borrow this.
Hey, that's my sword.
Wait. I need to make sure that you didn't
do anything to the sword to cheat.
Go ahead.
What a shabby sword.
It suits the Second Royal Academy.
-Iris.
-Okay.
Hey, be careful with it.
A monster!
Calling me a monster is too much.
I'm a girl.
To be exact, you are a female dragon.
Feikus.
What is it?
I think His Majesty has passed down the decree
for the students to learn the Wordless Magic.
But the students of the First Academy
are still using the Incantation Magic.
What happened?
Why not?
I have to protect the education of this nation
from being destroyed by the lowly
Crest of Failure and Crest of Standard.
Even if it's a decree from His Majesty.
So, you disobeyed my decree.
Your Majesty?
It was just a speech tactic. I didn't mean
Royal guards, arrest that traitor.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Please wait, Your Majesty!
You despicable Royal Second Academy!
How dare you set me up!
I won't forgive you!
Now, for the students
of the First Royal Academy.
From now on, not only do you have
to help the Second Royal Academy,
you have to learn the Wordless Magic too
so that you can join the current battle
that we are facing.
-Any objections?
-No, Your Majesty!
You are wise to invite His Majesty to come here.
Yes.
It's great that the students of
the First Royal Academy are willing to help.
The headmaster of the First Royal Academy
is really despicable.
That's right.
Now, the progress of the barrier
and the implementation of
the Wordless Magic is going well.
Where are we going today?
We are going to collect
the materials for the barrier.
The materials? Do you mean Mithril?
The students of the First Royal Academy
can take care of that.
We are going to collect the Magistone.
The material that is the core of the barrier.
You said that it has to be
60cm in diameter, right?
That won't be hard.
For example
Please don't look at me
when you are talking about Magistone.
Iris is a dragon. So, her Magistone
is more than 80cm in diameter.
Are you going to take Iris's Magistone?
Don't worry. I don't plan to do that.
We'll use another way.
We'll summon the demons.
Alma and Lurie have improved a lot.
Now, the only issue
is Iris.
Her control is too bad.
This is a great test to assess
whether or not she can join our party.
Can you get a grip on yourself?
This is my first time entering the 17th level.
Me too.
Is that so?
Someone I knew in the past
once went down to the 654th level.
That was me in my past life.
Let's summon the demons here.
Lurie, use that Magistone to build a formation.
I'll give it a try.
Lurie, all the best.
It's so hard.
Clear your mind. You can do it.
Come. Let me give you some support.
I'm sorry. I'll focus now.
I did it!
Good.
You are getting better and better, Lurie.
Thank you.
It's hot. It's so hot in here, Iris.
Iris, infuse your magic power into it.
Okay.
Don't do it too quickly.
Or else, it'll be problematic.
Take it slow.
Take it slow, right?
I'm going to start now?
Just a little bit.
Wait! It's too
Too little?
I'll increase my power then.
Stop increasing your power, decrease it.
No. Stop now.
Okay.
It's too late.
A demon that can't be supported
by this level might show up.
This place is going to collapse. Run!
Iris. I said a little bit, right?
Yes. That's why I only infused
a little bit of my power.
You call that a little bit?
Yes. The person I knew in the past
blew away three mountains when he
wanted to test out his power for a little bit.
Don't compare what I said
to that unreasonable
Are you talking about me?
Yes. I was talking about you
in your past life, Gaius.
It's a dragon.
Yes. The diameter of its Magistone
is at least 60cm wide.
Iris, please attack it first.
Okay. Here I go.
Iris!
You scared me. Why did you suddenly hit me?
Iris, can you convince it?
How can I convince it?
Well
-No.
-Say it.
Fine.
You are just a lizard with wings!
You should just die!
I'll kill you!
Is she really trying to convince it?
What did she say?
She called it a lizard with wings.
It's the worst insult towards a dragon.
She's not convincing it then.
She's provoking it.
Iris, continue to catch the dragon's attention.
Am I your bait?
You are not a bait. You are our shield.
-Is there a difference?
-Lurie, now.
Okay.
Alma.
Leave it to me.
I didn't cause him any damage at all.
This is good enough. Continue.
During this time,
I'll set up the formation.
It has noticed us!
Iris, protect them.
I got it.
Your opponent is me!
Although it's big,
it doesn't have high attack power.
Iris is fighting a dragon with bare hands.
This is too unbelievable.
Both of you, don't stop attacking it.
This attack will not work on me.
Iris, you better evade its attack from above.
Iris!
Hey.
The ground of the lower-level floor
is too fragile.
It'll become like this
if you take its blow without thinking.
Comes to think of it,
it's not using the Breath of Dragon.
Because I used my magic
to stop it from doing so.
No wonder.
The body of a dragon is very tough.
Swords can't penetrate its body.
And the demon poison won't work on it as well.
Although I can ask Iris
to turn into a dragon and fight it,
this is too much for Iris to handle now.
After all, she can't control her power yet.
Although it's troublesome,
this is the only way to defeat it.
Okay. It's ready now.
Step back, both of you.
-Okay.
-Understood.
Iris.
How long will it take for you
to get out of there?
Around four seconds.
Give me five seconds just in case.
Okay. Bait it to use the Breath of Dragon.
Okay.
You can't use the Breath of Dragon?
You are indeed a lizard with wings.
If you want to die so badly,
die now!
Well done, Iris.
I'll retreat now.
The only way is to use the Breath of Dragon
and reflect it back towards the dragon.
So, the dragon will destroy itself.
But it'll take some time to activate it.
Iris, look out!
That fool!
No matter how strong Iris is,
under such a big-scale magic formation,
she might get hurt.
-Iris, get down!
-Okay.
Is it over?
Did we manage to defeat it?
Where are Matty and Iris?
I'm here.
-Matty.
-Are you okay.
I'm fine. Humans can't die from being blown away
for 100 metres.
No, I think a human will die.
Here's the Magistone.
Iris.
Are you hurt?
No. Thanks to you, Mattias.
Although it was a close call,
she passed.
-Iris.
-Yes. What is it?
Do you want to become
an official member of our party?
Can I?
Of course.
I agree too.
Me too.
I feel safe when Iris is with us.
It's decided then.
Thank you.
Comes to think of it, I think we need to train.
Now, we need to train the teamwork between us.
Why are we destroying the academy to do so?
We need to let Iris get used
to the body of a human.
She needs to pay attention to where she walks.
If she trains here, she can learn very quickly.
I see. You are so smart, Matthias.
Okay. Let's start with our training.
You won't hit me so easily.
Great! I got one point.
Iris, don't just pay attention to the shell
on top of your head.
You need to avoid the attack
with the slightest move.
Okay.
Avoid the attack with the slightest move.
A human body is really inconvenient.
Are you going to give up?
Of course not.
Matty, what should I do?
I hope that you can improve your
enchantment magic and make new equipment for us.
I'll leave it to you to make a weapon for me.
I will do my best!
I'll create amazing equipment for all of you.
Let's start with my sword then.
After the fight with the dragon, aside from
the Magistone, we have some materials too.
We'll use the dragon claw and Mithril
as the materials.
As for the enchantments,
let me think about it.
Iron Cutter, Sharpening, Magic, Penetrating,
Toughening, Reinforcing, Heat Resistance,
and Erosion Resistance enchantments.
There are eight enchantments in total.
How can I do that?
You can't enchant eight types of magic power
onto the same material.
But you can combine them.
Combine them?
Separate the blade of the sword into five parts.
The one in the middle will be made
from the dragon claw.
The outer layers will be made from Mithril.
And then, enchant four types of magic power
on each part.
Lastly, combine everything together.
I see.
What a great idea.
Let's give it a try.
Okay!
I did it. But it doesn't feel any different.
You did well.
Next, make your own sword.
I think I'm getting a knack for how to avoid
the attack with the slightest move.
You managed to avoid one arrow.
But it's not over yet.
You have much to learn.
I let my guard down.
I won't let you score a hit next time.
You are more and more agile now.
Yes.
Come over here.
Lurie has made some new weapons for all of you.
First, it's Lurie's sword.
Okay. Here I go.
I did it.
Next, Alma.
The sword looks awesome.
But the bow looks amazing too.
It's fascinating.
Lastly, it's Iris's turn.
Is this a spear?
Because you are so powerful,
we don't need to sharpen the spear.
Here I go.
Now, I can wield it however I want.
The difference between a spear and a sword is,
you can attack by thrusting it forward.
It'll suit you better.
Okay. Let's train more.
The three of you can fight against me then.
Bring it on!
We have a new member in our party.
And the Wordless Magic has been implemented too.
Next, we just need to set up
the barrier of the royal capital
and defeat the demon tribe.
And I'll have no reason to stay.
From the looks of it,
I'm getting closer to the day
where I can leave the academy.
Just you wait.
You foolish humans.
