01x13 - Thanks to Everyone, Thank You

[bunniefuu]

A fire...

Dragon?!

Orc-face, you didn't...!

I did.

Forget fighting some freaky thing with no physical body.

The Blaze Dragon.

I'll let that dragon consume the thing's healing energy, its "Divine Might".

And then I'll slay it!

Umm...

Alicia!? And Raiga and Edgar!

The Blaze Dragon just revived using high-density holy magic.

It already had insta-k*ll attacks and attack immunity.

And it mind controls anyone who gets close.

How will you slay it?

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

Huh?

You didn't think it through!?

How do you slay the Blaze Dragon when it's imbued with "Divine Might"!?

It'll be fine actually. Mabel's here, and she's got the God-Freezing Sword.

The God-Freezing Sword!?

The legendary weapon that overwhelmed the Blaze Dragon and—

What the heck!?

H-Hey, pull yourself together.

You're from the legendary Ice Clan, right!?

Now, hold on, you two!

Screw you idiots. It's scary, okay?

Stupid spiky hair. Stupid part over shaved sides.

I'm a former regular knight, you know.

C-Could you please speak up!?

The God-Freezing Sword's a bust, Kuroki!

What? Really?

It is not a bust, you spiky-haired moron!

Could you enunciate more clearly? Pretty please?

This is bad, man. What are we gonna do!?

sh*t! That monster's gonna eat us for—

- We can win.
- Huh!?

- For real!?
- But how?

Easy.

Outpace its healing. Overpower it and k*ll it faster than it can repair itself.

Huh!?

See this sword?

It's an ancient magical artifact that focuses power and releases it.

Normally, I power it with the lightning magic accumulated in my armor.

But if I were to channel orc-face's stupidly tremendous magic into this sword.

And fire it out?

Then the "Deified Blaze Dragon," I guess we'll call it?

I can slay it.

Relax.

Ooh!

Oh! But what about getting mind-controlled when you get close?

Not a problem.

The jewel on my forehead blocks all mental attacks.

What about the blaze scales' attack immunity?

You can damage it if you attack while it's burning you.

Oh, huh! While it's bur...

That would k*ll most people!

Dragon breath is an insta-k*ll attack!

We've verified it.

Just use magic to guard against the breath.

- We slew it.
- Yeah.

I didn't need the God-Freezing Sword at all.

Wait, Kuroki, you've both slain the Blaze Dragon!? Without the God-Freezing Sword!?

Orc-face slew the real one himself.

But either way...

We never needed the God-Freezing Sword at all.

Well, I'll be damned.

So no one needs the God-Freezing Sword.

Um...

If I may...?

I haven't yet told Edgar and Raiga that it was you who slew the goblin army.

Let 'em keep the credit.

It works better for me anyway.

What...!? But...

Anyway, about that memory I erased at the hot spring...

Oh, the one where I was na...

That's just silly—

Icuras Cuora

I'll remember it this time, so...

Re-enact it for me.

No.

Huh?

But maybe later, at an inn...

Maaabeeel!

Huh? What is it?

These three are celebrities, you know! I haven't introduced you yet, have I!?

Why are you yelling, Elf?

Raiga! Edgar! Alicia!

There you go! Their jobs are plain to see!

Is this really the time for intros?

You're right! This is a dire emergency!

Whyever would we engage in chitchat?

Look, there's a very good reason, really...

I...

Safe-guarded and wield the legendary God-Freezing Sword.

My name is Mabel Rayveil.

Everyone.

It's nice to meet you, Mabel!

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meetcha!

Y...

Yes!

I used to be a regular knight, a job that freelance adventurers could never hope to land in a million years!

It's a pleasure to meet my lessers!

Y-Yes, a pleasure...

Uh, sure...

Does she feel any desire to get along with them?

And isn't she jobless and homeless at this point?

It's ready to act!?

Are you doing this or what, Lady!?

Not yet!!

If we slay it while it's only part-revived, the "Divine Might Uncontrolled" might bring it back!!

We need it to finish reviving first. So brace yourselves and wait it out!

- Right!
- Got it!

Okay, orc-face!

I-I need to store up power!

As much as I abhor it...

I'll need you to fly me around! It's the only way!

G-Go on! Get a move on!!

Oh, for crying out loud.

I know he has to carry me.

But couldn't he do it in a kinder way?

There. Now we're all set!

So...

That means nothing left for me to do, right?

Huh!?

Are you kidding!?

How can she smile like that!?

Great! Then I'll just get out of your way!

It's watching her.

It must really hate the Ice Clan!

Ooh! Mabel can be the bait, then.

That should make our work a lot easier.

D-Don't worry, we'll support you!

Here it comes!

Urgh... Argh! Fine!

I'll be your stupid bait!!

With the God-Freezing Sword...

No Blaze Dragon can—

- A rock!?
- I've got this.

Slash Engage!

Tempest...

Calibur!!

I'll protect you!

Hey! That was my move!!

Okay. Looks like they're baiting it nicely.

- Ah! It's coming back!
- I've got this!

Strike Engage! Shura Ouga!

Hey, that's mine!

Worried you can't do it?

You talked like it would be an easy win. But you were lying when you said "we could win," right?

Why would you...?

I had to say that.

Otherwise, I'd be paralyzed with fear!

I don't want those kids...

To go through that miserable experience!

Now I get it.

That thought hadn't even crossed my mind.

Aah! It's coming this way!

Run for it!

Impulse Calibur!!

D-Did I get it!!?

Ah, it ran away!

Nice one, Edgar!

Sorry, but I've honestly got no idea whether we can win.

There's no precedent for this.

I'm trying to think up strats myself, but so far...

What!? Now, hold on here!

What ever happened to "a crisis is an opportunity," huh!?

A crisis is an opportunity.

Isn't that the motto you live by!?

You...

You actually take the things I say seriously, huh.

Ready to go, Sui?

You'd better back me up, Yousuke!

Uncle, stop the video!

What's wrong, Takafumi?

At long last.

At long last, a proper otherworld fantasy battle!

Want some coffee, guys?

Sure!

There isn't a man alive who hates otherworld fantasy battles.

Oh, I should take a bathroom break too!

And I am certainly no exception to that rule! I love them!

It's been about ten months since Uncle woke up.

It looks like I can finally see the otherworld battle I've longed for.

You really love otherworld fantasy, don't you?

You good? I'm playing it.

Yeah!

Ready to go, Sui?

You'd better back me up, Yousuke!

- Breath attack!
- I can take the first shot!

It's gonna get hot!

Baraibuuto Zarusherion

Our enemy's major attacks are the breath of blaze, the tail...

And the claw that comes randomly.

Try to bait its claw attack!

I know!

Alright! I'm releasing you!

Waldgrent Sladseld

Suffocate by my icy blade and go to sleep!

Rugaldos Golet Bustor

Long Heavy Piercer.

Super Long Star Breaker!

It's just like an unbreakable spell

All these feelings simply won't go away

They're overflowing for someone

And all I can think of is you

Hey! If you were gonna use so much energy that you can't even fly, then you should've...

Did that scare you?

You...

Unconsciously following in your footsteps

We did it, Yousuke!

I've been vague about these feelings

What? I can't hear you!

We did it, Yousuke!

If I have to name them right now

Huh?

Only one word comes to mind

My image of you is like dots in my mind

We did it.

I hurriedly connect them together

Still searching for the answer between us

Yousuke.

Even when I'm at a loss, this warm feeling remains

I don't simply want you to show a smile

I want you to keep that smile fovever and ever

These thoughts are repeating every second

Is there something I could do

It's just like an unbreakable spell

All these feelings simply won't go away

They're overflowing for someone

There's a burnt smell.

And all I can think of is you

You smell like the incinerator from elementary school.

Kyaa! Don't smell me!

Wah!? Stop flailing around!

What the heck are they doing?

- Geh!?
- They fell!?

Geez...

It's always like this with you.

The Blaze? It has completely fused with the "Divine Might Uncontrolled" huh?

It's dangerous to harvest this.

If it revives again and combines with some other great "Might", then...

That's what I'm aiming for.

Hey!

Are you all right?

You did it. The two of you.

Well, it was fine I guess.

Hey, hey, you know, I did a good job with the assist earlier, right!?

Achievement! Achievement!

You can praise me if you want!

Ah... You're right.

If I were by myself...

I think I would've probably taken four months to slay it.

And it might have resulted in collateral damage to the vicinity.

It's thanks to everyone's help.

I'm grateful.

Especially Mabel.

Even though you were so scared, you still fought. It was very helpful.

As expected of the Ice Clan.

Mabel, aren't you glad you got praised?

What's that? "I want to be carried like Elf was"?

W-W-W-Wait a minute. Mabel!?

Oh. You want to fly in the sky too, Alicia?

But I've already overused the spirits' powers.

R-Right, right!

Wha? No...

- Wait...
- We'll skip the binding magic.

I'm scared! I'm scared! I'm scaaared!

Ku-Kuroki-kun!! Let me down already!

Stop flailing around, Alicia. Heavy.

Come on! Let me down already! Hey!

Is it enough?

It's not fair to just do Alicia!

Kuroki! Me too! Me too!

Then how about I do you both at once?

Mabel?

Sweet! Seriously?

Mabel?

Well, I thought it might be interesting?

I feel sick...

Kuroki, let us down!

Aren't the two of you looking a bit scary?

- Crap. It's coming up...
- Don't come near me!

Oh, by the way, thank you for last night, Mabel.

It was a captivating night.

It's as if I could still hear your beautiful voice from last night even now.

I fell asleep before you, but I hope you had enough sleep?

Hey...! I asked you not to talk about that in front of other people...!

Geez, Wolf. You're so...

This is my thanks.

I... already have one...

Yeah... Go ahead and sell one of them.

Well, it might appreciate in value.

So maybe I'll hold onto it for a bit...?

Hm... Hmph!

Me and Yousu... orc-face are already beyond those stupid rings...

Speaking of which, what was that "Wolf" thing earlier?

Ah. That's my line. What's "Kuroki"?

Ooh. Those are my names in this world.

My real name from my original world is Shibazaki Yousuke.

Shiba...?

Yousu...?

Wolfgunblood definitely sounds cooler!

I feel the same with Kuroki Tenma.

I know right!? They're super cool!

They were the names of powerful foes I've fought against in the past in Japanbahamal.

I'm impressed you can appreciate them. You two are quite something.

Why did you tell them your name so easily...

Why! Why! Why! Why!

Watch it. If it breaks, things will get bad.

What are you going to do with that?

I have witnessed it.

The moment the dragon was slayed, powerful energies collided.

A warp in space-time appeared.

Which means...

If I make this thing grow even stronger, and hit it with an even more powerful attack.

Then it might create an even bigger warp that maybe I can return to Japan through.

W-What are you doing!?

I'm destroying it.

Tsundere-san...!!

If you don't want him to leave, you should just say it...!

Well, that's how it went.

I was finally able to get a hold of something resembling a clue on how to get back to Japan.

So, did you make the Blaze Dragon even stronger, and when you slayed it...

You went through the space-time warp to get back here!? Was that what happened?

- Ah. That's—
- Hold up!

One step at a time, Fujimiya. Blowing through things like this isn't good.

I mean, it's going to take another fourteen years from this point, right!?

It's too long!

That won't be a problem.

I'm pretty much a solo-player.

So there won't be many more events like this.

Really now?

Well, instances where Uncle's perception and reality are incongruent are pretty frequent.

I'm feeling hungry.

Then why don't we go out for some ramen again?

My treat.

- Your treat?
- Are you sure, Uncle!?

- Absolutely!
- Heck yeah!

It's a bit chilly today.

Soon we won't need help from the Ice Spirit anymore.

Offering a fish head is hard work.

If aliens were to invade Earth today...

What would you do, Fujimiya-san?

I'll get Uncle to use magic and kick their butts!

A lot has happened this year.

We started posting videos online...

I reconnected with an old friend...

And I've already gotten used to living with Uncle.

The anxiety I felt we first met feels so unreal now.

Well, Uncle, your life in the otherworld seems to go pretty well, for what it's worth.

Oh? Is that so?

You had friends.

And you got along well with Elf-san.

The Memory Spirit is acting on its own...

Uncle!

Uncle, something awful happened again!

Ooh.

At that time...

All of my valuables were confiscated and I was thrown in jail.

Why!?

​Refrain from recovering those lost memories

Rewrite in words that only gives a glimpse of the story

Don't end this Won't change it

Don't end this Won't change it​

It'll stay the same no matter what happens

I'll never lose sight of my goal​

Who was the one to decide

That way of life is unlike you

Having the strength to pursue your goal

That's what it means to be strong​

It's something you already knew

I believe in what I've done

No reason to go back again

Those days gone by full of precious moments

Easy losing memories

I'm struggling now to overcome

I'm never going to give up​ until the very end​

Get down let's get down

The light still shines in my heart

Trust yourself

Don't deny

Save yourself

Don't forget

Life with Uncle...

Has only just begun!
