Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation (2021) s01e21 Episode Script

1
Everything happens suddenly.
Your parents may suddenly die.
Your brothers may suddenly punch you.
A truck may suddenly hit you.
You may suddenly get reincarnated
in another world.
Your father may suddenly attack you
and force you to be a young lady's tutor.
You may suddenly get
sent off to another continent.
And
People may suddenly die too.
Hey!
Rudeus! Hurry!
Okay, okay.
Yes! And then!
Look! Aren't those Red Dragons?!
It must be fun to hunt one!
Eris.
Thank you.
Here, Ruijerd.
Okay.
Eris.
What?
Starting today,
you can call yourself a warrior.
So that means
You're fully qualified.
B-But I haven't beaten you even once!
That's okay. You definitely have
enough power as a warrior now.
Congratulations, Eris.
R-Rudeus.
Is this a dream?
Pinch me.
You won't punch me even if I pinch you?
I won't.
Where are you pinching?!
Sorry But this isn't a dream.
It shouldn't hurt this mush if it's a dream
I see
A warrior
But don't get cocky.
It means I won't treat you
like a child anymore.
You get it?
Yes!
Hey, hey!
Look at that!
Instead of detouring,
let's take the route up there.
I wanna fight that dragon right now!
Stop joking.
You can go there, right, Rudeus?
I don't think that's possible.
I've heard that Red Dragons
are incredibly strong.
What's more, they're a
species that form herds.
Right, Ruijerd-san?
Yeah.
Is that so?
I'm afraid even lower ranked
Seven Great Powers
would have to retreat halfway
through the fight.
Seven Great Powers
You mean the ones we saw on the
stone monument on Holy Sword Highway?
So it's not easy to fight Red Dragons
even for people who are that strong.
Others may somehow
take down one dragon,
but if they appear in herds,
then probably only the upper ranked
Seven Great Powers can beat them.
I see.
I remember that currently,
Technique God ranks 1st,
Dragon God ranks 2nd, and so on, right?
Some people sure
are strong in this world.
What's wrong, you two?
Rudeus, definitely don't move
Eris, you too.
That voice
You're Ruijerd Superdia, right?
And you're Eris Boreas Greyrat
You're
I haven't seen your face.
Who the heck are you?!
Why do you know my name?!
Why do you know my name too?!
This is a strange place to
meet you, but whatever.
Is that okay?
For the time being, it can't be helped.
Sorry to bother you.
Please wait!
What do you want?
Oh, hello
I'm Rudeus Greyrat.
So you're from the Greyrat Family.
Yes
Uhm
Oh, firstly, what's your name?
I'm Orsted.
Orsted
Um Do you know Eris and Ruijerd?
No, we haven't known each other yet.
Yet? What do you mean by that?
You don't have to know that.
By the way, which Greyrat
Family are you from?
What's your father's name?
It's Paul Greyrat.
Paul shouldn't have a son.
I believe he only has two daughters
Well, how rude.
He has one. A son who's
very similar to his father.
Although, two daughters
Why does he know that?
Don't get any closer!
So you don't look away, huh.
The way you're looking at me is scary,
so I really want to look away right now.
Well, whatever.
So, what do you want?
I'm just wondering if you know anything
about the mana calamity and all that.
I don't
I see.
I'm so sorry to bother you.
Do you remember hearing
the word "Human God"?
Yes! He sometimes appears in my drea-
- I see
- Rudeus
So you're Human God's apostle
Run! Rudeus!
You've improved a lot.
I thought you had the potential,
but you're still not good enough.
Tell this to Human God before you die.
"Dragon God Orsted
will definitely kill you."
Upon your wanted is the great blessing
The heat of daring light
Fire Ball!
Magic without chanting, huh.
Did you get that power from Human God?
Enough with that.
Disturb Magic.
You're quite skilful.
Front Dragon Gate, open!
Tremendous magic power capacity
As if it's on a par with Laplace
Why don't you use magic
without chanting to cure your lungs?
Well, whatever.
Die.
Rudeus
Rudeus!
Oh This is bad
I don't want to die.
I haven't fulfilled my promise with Eris yet.
At least give me two more years.
Please wait till two years later.
If so I would've be able to
die without any regrets
It's okay I can do this
Increase my magic power slowly
I can't die yet
Slowly It's okay, slowly
Let's go, Nanahoshi.
O-Okay.
Ruijerd!
Ghislaine! Grandpa!
Dad! Mum!
Anyone, anyone will do! Save us!
Rudeus is gonna die!
Eris
I'm sorry
- Hey, Orsted.- I don't want die
- I was curious about one thing He- I don't want die
Hey.
Well, what should I say
That was a pity.
Yeah, it's really a pity.
You're different from usual today.
Are you okay? Are you feeling sick?
As you can see, there's a hole in my chest.
Hey, can I ask one thing?
What?
Why did that Orsted guy attack me
the moment he heard your name?
Because he's the evil Dragon God.
He hates me a lot because I'm virtuous.
Virtuous, huh
Well, it's easy for people to hate you.
But wouldn't it be better
if you told me in advance?
So that I know I'd meet him.
No, sorry.
I can't see anything regarding
Dragon God right now.
Neither the future nor the present.
So I didn't know you'd meet him.
Is that so?
Why?
Because he has such a curse on him.
Curse Such things exist?
Yes. They're called Cursed Children,
and some of them are really weird.
Orsted is one of them.
Well, he has about 3 other
curses on him too.
Oh?
Well, Ruijerd and Eris were scared, right?
That's one of his curses too.
He's either hated or feared by
all living creatures in this world.
Hated by everyone, huh
That's How do I put it
I'd hate that
But speaking of which,
I didn't hate or fear him, right?
Isn't that because
you're from another world?
People from another world aren't
affected by the curse?
It was the same when
you met Ruijerd, right?
Yeah
Huh? Wait.
Is Ruijerd a Cursed Child too?
No, it's the curse of the spear.
Laplace transferred the
Curse of Fear to the spears,
and passed it onto the Superd race.
Curse? Passed onto them?
What's going on?
Did you know that from the start?
Despite knowing it's useless,
you still asked me to help Ruijerd?!
No, no, don't misunderstand it.
The curse of Superd race is disappearing.
There's still a little curse
left on Ruijerd himself,
but thanks to him shaving his head,
the curse is fading rapidly.
Why?
Because Laplace's hair was green too.
Is that how curses work?
I don't really get it.
Well, in any case,
thanks to you getting involved,
the curse is disappearing.
The discrimination remains deeply rooted,
but with enough effort,
that can be solved too.
So my efforts weren't in vain
Then, I'm glad.
Speaking of which, I didn't think
Ruijerd would be beaten that easily.
Ruijerd is no match for him.
After all, he's one of the Seven Great Powers.
How can I beat him?
You can't.
He's just the strongest.
Even though he's
restricted by several curses.
The strongest?
But Dragon God ranks 2nd among
the Seven Great Powers, right?
Who's at the first place?
Technique God is at the first place,
but Orsted still wins if he
gets serious during the fight.
He can even destroy this world
if he gets serious.
Well, he can't get serious
due to his curse though.
Say
Although you can't see him,
you do know an awful lot about him.
Um
Well, whatever.
No matter what you're hiding, I don't care.
You seem to be helping
Ruijerd out of goodwill,
and I managed to rescue Lilia and Aisha
back then thanks to you.
Considering that, I don't really care
even if you've told me a few lies.
And we're meeting for the last time anyway.
The last time?
Yeah, the last time.
Right?
Because I've died.
I see. So that's why you've
given up on yourself?
That's the complete opposite of
the first time we met.
Because back then, I thought
I died without even knowing why
As for this time, well
It can't be helped
Luck wasn't on my side
Nah, I managed to live for a second time,
so I have to say I was lucky
There's still a lot left undone though
Well, um
Right
Oh Looks like we have to say goodbye now.
How should I do this at a time like this?
I see
Then, I have good news for you.
You haven't died, you know?
Eh?
R-Rudeus?
Rudeus!
Are you okay?
Why am I still alive?
That woman from before said something.
And then that Orsted guy
used heal magic on you
Woman?
She was called Nanahoshi.
Nanahoshi
That woman with a mask?
Why would they save someone
they just killed?
Don't worry.
They said he's just unconscious for now.
I see
Rudeus
You're quite energetic
Somehow, there're so many mixed
feelings within me right now.
So, is it okay if I hit you?
Of course.
Sorry to worry you
Really, you dummy
Thank goodness
I'm so glad
(Episode 21: Turning Point 2)
The sky I used to watch by my window
Was it the same sky as the one above me now?
The dusk looks dyed
As if it can read my mind
At the place where we
left behind our innocent days
The wind is blowing as if it's welcoming us
Please don't change
The streets, the people
Please all be exactly as I dreamed of them
Just like back in the day
I pray to the first star to appear
For a way back home
