Reincarnated as a Sword (2022) s01e11 Episode Script

Summoning the Demon Wolf

1
Teacher isn't here…
Where are we? We don't have our weapons!
Krad! Gennel!
Where is everyone?
It's huge!
This is bad!
Without Teacher,
I can't use magic or skills…
I can't fight…
-Victor!
-A trap!
A demon capable of altering traps…
A Trickster Spider?
I'm afraid it is likely so.
Impossible.
Did it just happen to evolve?
Or perhaps someone
deliberately made this happen…
What do you mean?
No, it's nothing.
In any case,
something irregular has happened.
It wouldn't be a surprise
even if a Trickster Spider is behind this.
Those guys didn't have their weapons
with them when they were teleported!
We need to get to them fast!
You're right. We must hurry.
We need to be efficient.
Let's split up into three groups.
Eizelle and I will team up
with Krad's party.
Got it.
I still have some antidotes on me.
Rig will join the Forest Eyes.
I look forward to working with you all.
-Yes.
-All right.
We'll have to ask Miss Amanda to go solo.
Okay.
If you encounter the Trickster Spider,
please be wary of traps.
Do not engage.
Withdraw as quickly as possible.
-Yes.
-Understood.
Fran, wait for me!
Fran, hang in there!
-Where do we start?
-Should we return to the fifth floor?
Shouldn't they be somewhere deeper?
I can't even detect any presence,
much less traps.
Weren't they supposed to be
in the southeast?
Where do we even start?
Wind Magic, Noise Collect.
The spiders are everywhere.
This dungeon is tricky indeed.
I can't pick up any sounds
that belong to Fran at all.
Magic that can pick up sounds
through airflow?
I've used all my detection skills,
but I can't find anything either!
This is looking really bad…
Fran has no weapons,
and she can't use skills or magic!
Her stats must have hit rock bottom too!
She can't fight in her current state!
Not a single trace.
Didn't they say someone got teleported
into a wall once?
Stop that.
That's not helping!
Now, now, don't argue…
Damn it!
-This place is massive! There's no end!
-Krad, calm down!
Calm down.
There might be other
troublesome traps to deal with…
Curses!
After everything I told Fran…
Isn't there anything I can do?
There must be a skill I can use
to find her!
Think!
Think…
EPISODE 11: SUMMONING THE DEMON WOLF
Of all the skills I have,
there must be something I can use!
Did I miss anything?
There has to be something
that can help me now!
Think!
That's it! If I use Parallel Thought…
-Anything!
-I took in all the skills I could get,
-Any skill that can help me…
-so I've got a bunch of things to use…
-Something I missed…
-Kin Summon?
The skill from the Army Beetle Leader…
Kin Summon?
If I can summon a familiar
that is able to find her…
Oh, why am I so useless?
But if I use a summoning skill here,
Amanda will definitely notice.
No! There's no time to worry about that!
Fran comes first!
What kind of familiar can I summon,
Ms. Announcer?
Available summon, wolf beast.
A wolf beast?
Grey Wolf, Ruby Wolf, Thunder Wolf,
-Emerald Wolf…
-That's too many! That's enough!
Which wolf can help me find Fran?
A wolf with the Life Detection skill,
the Onyx Wolf.
That's it! That's the one!
All right. Let's do this!
I'll channel all my mana into that wolf
so it can find Fran at once!
What? Summoning Magic?
Come. Heed my call!
Use your powers to find Fran!
SUMMON, ONYX WOLF
Summon!
Onyx Wolf!
This is an Onyx Wolf!
What's going on? Who summoned it?
Onyx Wolf, hurry and sniff out Fran…
Hey! Did you hear what I said?
Hello?
Darkness Magic… This is bad.
Wait…
What?
It's attacking another target.
Is it not a demon of this dungeon?
No matter what,
it's too dangerous to leave it be.
I must take care of it.
Wait!
This is a familiar I summoned!
What?
Is this telepathy?
Who are you?
I'm sorry, I can't explain right now…
I can only ask you to trust me.
I am Fran's companion!
Fran's companion?
Yes. I need its power to find Fran,
so please don't take it out!
Okay.
I don't know who you are,
but I understand.
I'll leave it to you then.
Yes.
But still, what am I supposed to do
about this thing?
The Onyx Wolf
is most likely in berserk mode
due to excessive mana.
What? What does that mean?
It is the result of channeling more mana
than recommended during the summoning,
exceeding what the crystal located
in its heart is capable of withstanding,
causing the mana inside the Onyx Wolf
to run amok.
That means…
It believes its master
is the cause of its suffering.
No way… Is it in pain?
I've done something bad…
What should I do now?
Might I interrupt?
You said you summoned the wolf, yes?
Yes…
Have you given it a name yet?
A name?
I've only heard about this,
so I don't know the exact details,
but in this world,
gods will give items and monsters names
and imbue special powers into them.
To imitate that process,
summoners will often name
the monsters and spirits they summon
to strengthen their bond.
So this is like named items
and named monsters in games.
Ms. Announcer, is this true?
The effectiveness of
naming the wolf is 93%.
I see.
All right. That's what I have to do then.
A name for this guy?
I have to come up with a name on the spot,
so I hope you don't blame me.
Let's see…
You're a wolf, and you're dark in color…
All right.
You are the one I summoned
with my mana for Fran's sake…
Urushi, the Darkness Wolf!
Listen to me, Urushi!
Is it working?
Status report.
Mana optimization through naming
was successful.
Currently using surplus mana
to evolve its crystal.
Complete. All stats have been increased.
Conditions satisfied.
Urushi is evolving.
Whoa, for real?
URUSHI, DARKNESS WOLF
This is…
It's huge!
Let's see… Darkness Wolf.
It has a variety of skills,
and its mana stats are similar to mine.
All I did was give it a name
and it's so different now.
Fran lost her name
when she was enslaved too.
It seems like names possess special
and magical meanings in this world.
Okay, Urushi.
Can you understand me?
Good, Urushi.
Remember the scent of my wielder, Fran,
and find her!
Teacher…
Did you find her?
All right! Go, Urushi!
Wait! Are you going to charge into that?
SKILL: SHADOW MELD
Whoa, this skill!
Is it just like the one
the Greater Demon used?
Wait! Are you just leaving me here?
Sorry!
I've got everything under control!
You can follow us!
Good grief!
Wait for me!
I will find you,
Fran!
It's a deadly poison…
I can't summon any strength…
I'm too weak without any skills…
Just like before I met Teacher…
I was nothing. I couldn't do anything…
And I was weak…
The spiderlings!
Stay away! We're not food!
We're doomed! We don't have our weapons…
I can't fight back…
Teacher…
Fran,
you will not lose.
I promise you!
I still have my arms and legs!
Don't overdo it!
You've been poisoned too!
I can still fight…
I have my Teacher's teachings
and this body!
I am Fran!
A Black Cat who will evolve!
Are we not there yet, Urushi?
There might be traps
in the space and flooring up ahead!
DARKNESS MAGIC, TRAP VISION
Using Darkness Magic and Midair Jump
to dodge the traps?
You're brilliant, Urushi!
Are you certain they're here?
It's a dead end,
but it looks like this is it.
Stand back, doggy.
Wind Magic.
Tornado Lance!
It's a secret passage!
It's covered with webs.
We'll only get tangled up
if we try to pass through it.
I'll clear the path.
That girl…
She has been distracting the big spider.
Is she trying to keep her away from us?
I can do it.
I can do this.
I am Fran.
The Fran that will make Teacher…
proud!
Telecatapult won't be enough.
I'll get tangled in the webs.
No… I can't fall!
Sword Attribute, Fire!
Channel mana.
Move!
Limits…
…are meant to be surpassed!
I am Teacher's student, Fran!
Fran!
Are you all right?
Teacher…
Teacher!
You're hurt!
And poisoned too!
I'll heal you right away!
Let's take care of that huge spider first.
Okay. Leave it to me!
What?
Did it run off?
We'll go after it later.
Let's get you healed up first.
Greater Heal!
Antidote!
Thank you!
I'm sorry, Fran.
I said all of that,
but I still let this happen to you…
Teacher did save me.
Fran, the effects of the skill are still…
It's fine.
Teacher took a lot of damage too.
It's nothing compared to
what you've endured.
You've done so well on your own.
You're the student
I'm most proud of, Fran.
Fran!
I'm so glad you're all right!
Mama was so worried…
You're not my mama…
I'm so glad…
Thank you too, Amanda.
Fran!
Oh, right. This fluffy thing is a familiar
I summoned using Kin Summon.
Its name is Urushi.
Urushi?
It's kind of like your little brother.
It did its best to look for you.
Brother… Fluffy…
Thank you, Fluffy Urushi.
That reminds me…
Now that everything is out of the way…
Just who are you, Mr. Sword?
Well, I knew this was coming.
I gave up pretending halfway after all.
I'm sorry. Pretend I never asked.
I couldn't help but be curious.
But I don't want
to make things difficult for Fran.
It's inappropriate to pry into
another adventurer's skills and equipment.
Unless it's someone you trust very much…
I trust Amanda.
Teacher, I want to tell Amanda about you.
Fran…
Can I?
Well, Amanda certainly doesn't seem
like someone bad…
and these two have gotten quite close.
I feel a little left out…
But I suppose it's a good thing
that Fran has found
another person she can trust.
I understand. Go ahead.
Thank you, Teacher.
Amanda…
An Intelligence Weapon, you say?
It actually exists!
I can't believe I actually met one
with my very own eyes!
A magical sword
that can absorb crystals from monsters
and gain its skills
and share them with Fran!
Yes…
This is amazing!
I can't even describe how I'm feeling…
Yes.
Teacher is a super-duper sword!
A super-duper sword!
Amanda gets it.
You are Fran's companion,
yes, Mr. Teacher?
Yes. Without question.
I'm a little jealous, but…
it's nice to meet you, Mr. Teacher.
Same here. And just Teacher is fine.
You may call me Amanda too, then.
But more importantly,
Fran trusts me enough
to tell me her secret!
That makes me so happy!
Thank you…
Goodness…
Now, then, we have to head back
to Cruise and the others.
We agreed to split up
to search and regroup
at the plaza on the sixth floor.
Oh, right!
Forgot about them.
They're dying!
-Antidote. Greater Heal.
-Antidote. Greater Heal.
My dead pet was waving at me…
-A goddess!
-The holy maiden!
Worship her!
That was a close call.
Do you remember what happened?
Well…
I remember the little girl
fighting and protecting us…
Then we fainted because of the poison…
Good to hear.
What's the matter?
If they had overheard
Fran and Teacher's secret,
I was going to use force
to ensure they lost their memories.
Scary…
Well…
This monster… Urushi won't eat me, right?
I can leave you here
if you've got any complaints.
Sorry!
Well, Miss Amanda…
This is kind of embarrassing…
Recover and walk by yourself then!
Sorry!
There's no one here.
They're taking too long.
Maybe something happened.
Should we look for them?
Well…
Urushi can probably find them.
Teacher!
You sensed that too, right?
Over there! The light!
That mana flow means…
A monster?
A new character?
