Efil?

No, Sera?

What's she doing here?

I remember them saying something at dinner

about the right to sleep next to me

I'm so full

But give me more

She's a worse sleeper than I thought.

So this is the legendary "sushi"?

What's she dreaming about?

Et tu, little sister?

Do normal sisters slide

into their brother's bed?

It didn't take long for her

to start fitting in here.

I was worried about her,

but she looks happy.

I'm sure this never would've

happened in my last life.

Not that I can tell without memories.

It's gonna be another busy day, I bet.

EP 10: New Family

I've never seen anything like it!

Don't go too far, Rion!

'Kay!

Um, Master?

What is it, Elly?

I understand why Rion is here,

but why are we here?

You're servants, but I want you both

to increase your levels a little.

I have golems guarding the mansion,

but if you don't increase your stats, you'll

be in bad shape if something happens.

But, Master, I've never

fought monsters before.

It's fine. You three just stay

at the front of the dungeon.

Does that include me, too, Brother Kel?

That's right, little sister.

We'll be using my

Experience Sharing skill.

Experience Sharing

shares the EXP you get from defeating

a monster with all party members.

That's right!

And if we keep hunting monsters,

by tomorrow morning you'll have

the stats to fight alongside us!

So, Gerard, Clotho,

let's have a race to see who can hunt

the most enemies before the time limit.

Sounds fun!

Don't get out of hand.

What's that sound?

It means your level increased.

And it means the skill's

working like it should.

Look at your stats.

Um

My level's this high already?

Wow!

Master, a monster is coming here now.

A Shadow Wolf.

A stray monster?

Don't sh**t it. Let it through.

Okay.

Rion, you like dogs?

Yeah I guess?

I never got to touch one.

You didn't, huh?

M-Master!

Don't worry.

Mel, keep them safe.

As you wish.

Air Pressure!

Okay, contract complete.

Oh, my!

Well done, My Lord!

That's amazing!

Yay!

So floofy!

Master, Urd's party is

coming up from the rear.

This forest isn't usually this busy.

Oh, is that you, Kelvin?

What are you doing at the

entrance to the forest?

Just a little picnic.

In a dangerous place like this?

What about you?

You don't come to the

Dark Purple Forest often, do you?

Yeah, but our party just got the

opportunity to be promoted to Rank B.

Our exam is to defeat a specific number of

monsters in the forest within a certain time.

I see!

But still why do you have so many

pretty women and pretty girls with you?

Are they all your new party?

Yeah, I guess.

Elly and Luca are maids at my mansion, though.

They're not adventurers.

I'm so jealous, damn it!

It's just guys here!

Efil and Miss Sera weren't enough?

Calm down, guys.

Don't freak out over something like that.

Oh, I'll introduce the others to you.

Hello, everyone. My name is Mel.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

M-My name is Rion.

I'm Brother Kel's little sister.

Nice to meet you!

And now he has a cute little sister!

And a beautiful girl that

looks like a saint!

Life isn't fair!

Guys, cut it out!

I understand how you feel, but

You have a wife and kids!

You don't understand how we feel!

Hey, wait, you guys! Wait!

They're back!

Hey, we passed by Urd on the way here.

Did something happen?

They've got their Rank B promotion

exam in the forest today.

They said they were hunting monsters.

That's a problem.

It sure is.

What did you do?

Skill: Far Seeing

Master, I used Far Seeing to check,

and there isn't a single

monster in the forest.

We k*lled 'em all.

We sure did.

Urd, I'm so sorry!

Now, now.

Don't bow like that, Kelvin.

Leo will understand if you explain.

Probably.

Urd you and your wife are so nice

But you know

Your little g*ng is incredibly powerful now.

You really are worthy of the Rank S exam!

Okay, good boy!

The Rank S exam, huh?

I bet Leo was planning on keeping it quiet,

and then calling me out of nowhere to start it.

You were always promoted

under special circumstances.

This will be your first exam.

That's right

I don't think Brother Kel will

have any problem with any exam!

Hey, no struggling, Alex!

We're almost done!

Alex?

Yeah, I gave him that name.

Good name, huh?

Don't you agree, Alex?

Go for it.

Don't splash!

You're soaked, Brother Kel!

Now Alex is part of the family.

Starting today, you two are partners.

Be good to each other.

Okay, Brother Kel!

Now nobody will mistake him for a monster.

Yeah.

He's a lot cleaner.

You're hungry?

But you just ate!

You can understand him?

Yeah, I've got a skill that does it.

Hey, Rion.

It's time for sword training.

Okay, Grandpa Gerard!

You're late.

You saw 'em, huh?

Yes. Some people have surrounded the

mansion and are acting suspiciously.

I'd say there's about 14 of them?

Sister Sera told me about them.

I didn't notice them at all.

I put Efil and Melfina to bed.

Gerard is guarding Elly and Luca's room.

Then, they'll be safe.

The highest is level 20.

Level 26

No, one's level 26.

He's apart from the others.

Maybe he's the boss?

You can see them from here?

Yeah, I borrowed Far Seeing from Efil.

What do we do?

Should I take care of them?

Hmm

Rion, can you and Alex handle it?

Me?

They're a perfect test

of what you've learned.

Silent Whisper is active

inside the mansion's gates.

I'll send the golems at the gate inside.

So start with the ones

who cross inside first.

Can you do it?

Yeah! I'll try it!

Okay, that's my little sister.

Clotho, make a mini-you for them.

Thanks, Clotho.

I'll upload the information

I learn from Detect Presence

and Far Seeing to the

servant network. Use it.

This is really helpful!

Thanks, Brother Kel!

And use this.

What is it?

It's called the Resonating Mithril Sword.

I used my Blacksmithing skill to reforge it

from a sword I got from a guy named Cashel.

It'll do for your first weapon.

Thanks, Brother Kel!

Now go!

It's the first battle for our family's hero!

Okay!

I'm told the master of that mansion

was working with the Deramis heroes

when Lord Christoph was captured.

He'll have to die, before he can get in

the way of the Militant Nation of Trycen!

This place really is like a dream.

Sister Efil is so kind

and such a good cook

Brother Kel It feels like I've

known him for a long time somehow.

And Sister Sera and the others

are so much fun to be around.

I want to help them all, too!

Let's go, Alex!

Let's see what she can do.

Yup.

She needs to work on the

way she uses that sword,

but she's got enough of a knack

to learn Rank S Swordsmanship.

If Gerard trains her properly,

she'll be unstoppable.

And she's doing a great job

working smoothly with Alex.

At this rate, not one of them's

going to make it to the mansion.

So I don't get to do anything, huh?

That's all of them.

Our first mission's complete, huh, Alex?

Yay!

Clotho, you're on cleanup.

I'll do a bare minimum of healing on them

before turning them over to the guild.

Okay, I'll go deal with

the ones who are hiding.

Sera, you go talk to Rion and Alex.

Roger.

They're late Did they fail?

We've got no choice but to retreat, then.

They're not coming.

My sister took them all down.

So that's it

It wasn't the Deramis heroes that

defeated Lord Christoph

In the name of Zel Trycen, Emperor

of the Militant Nation of Trycen,

I begin this meeting of the Round Table.

I brought you here to

discuss a serious matter.

Emperor

Zel Trycen

Is this about Christoph, Dad?

Dragoon General

Azgrad Trycen

Securing sl*ves in Toraj

was Tristan's idea, right?

I had such high hopes for them, too.

Mixed Demon Beast Army General

Tristan Faze

But they were just barbaric

adventurers, I suppose.

Not useful for anything.

Tristan, your excuses are meaningless.

Ironsteel Knights General

Dan Dalba

Dark General

Shutora Trycen

This incident has brought some of

our nation's shadows to light.

Gaun, Toraj, and Deramis are

already forming an alliance.

How will you take responsibility

for this failure?

Don't get so upset, General Dan.

You'll take years off your life.

What?

Stop it. You're in the Emperor's presence.

Princess Shutora

You really do adore the princess,

don't you, Old General?

Tristan, Dan is mostly correct.

Our nation is now in dire peril.

I've been telling them that Christoph

has nothing to do with Trycen,

but that's not enough.

If we're not careful, we could find

ourselves in a w*r with all three nations.

Let's do it, then.

Let's have a w*r.

Are you insane, Tristan?

Think about it!

While we were militarizing, the other

three countries were enjoying the peace.

Their weak armies are no match for us.

Now is the time to achieve our long-held

dream and unify the continent.

True, unifying the continent

is one of our great goals.

Princess?

So you agree, Princess Shutora?

But now's not the time.

They aren't as weak as your

words suggest, General.

I'm in favor of the w*r.

Brother Azgrad!

I've had several skirmishes

with Gaun's forces,

and they didn't seem that strong to me.

And we Dragoons have something

special up our sleeve.

You want to try out the new power you have?

Now it's two in favor, one opposed.

I'm opposed, of course!

The very idea is ridiculous!

Then the votes are tied.

And General Clive is all that's left, but

Very well, Tristan.

I will leave the fate of our nation

to the votes of you five generals.

Call Clive!

What am I doing here?

Tch. The Magic Knights HQ

is such a creepy place.

It's not locked. Come in.

Excuse me.

Oh, you're not one of my

soldiers. Who are you?

Jin Dalba, with the Ironsteel Knights!

Oh, Dan's son?

His Highness requires your

attendance at the Round Table.

Please come immediately, General Clive.

What a pain!

Sure, I guess.

I just have one question.

Am I pretty?

Magic Knights General
