01x06 - This Is a Village

[bunniefuu]

[hammer tapping]

- Based on the number of taps,

it should be coming

from this direction!

- Up there!

- [Hiraku] Something big

is headed here.

What is that thing?

A dragon?

- No, it's a wyvern!

- It can't be!

[intense music]

[wyvern roaring]

["Flower Ring" by Shino Shimoji

and Aya Suzaki plays]

[intense music]

[wyvern roaring]

[all grunting]

[wind howling]

- We must defend, Lu!

[barrier cracking]

[Lea gasping]

- Hurry, we need to

put out the fires!

[all panting]

- This is bad.

- Yeah.

Should we attack?

I'm not sure we can

pierce its barrier.

[wyvern growling]

[light humming]

[Hiraku gasping]

[light humming]

[energetic rock music]

- Crush him!

- No way!

[Hiraku growling]

[wyvern thudding]

[Lu gasping]

- [Lea] We managed to

put out all the fires.

There was some damage

to the crop fields,

but all of the buildings

are fine.

- [Hiraku] I see.

It looks like I managed

to take it down.

Are there a lot of

these creatures?

- There are some places

where they live,

but running into one of

them that's this large

is a very rare occurrence.

- Is there any possibility

that someone sent this

wyvern here to attack us?

- No, I don't think so.

Even if this wyvern was

under someone's command,

they wouldn't send such a

rare and valuable creature

off on its own to attack.

It's most likely a wild

creature acting alone.

- [Hiraku] I see.

Then I guess we can safely say

that this was nothing more

than a rare incident.

[all sighing anxiously]

By the way

- What is it, Hiraku?

- Is it okay to eat this?

[cheerful music]

- [Lu] Wyvern meat

is said be a delicacy.

In fact, it is said that

there was once a king

who sent his army into a

den of wyverns to hunt them

and bring them back for

the king to taste for himself.

- [Tia] Great story, Lu,

but I'm pretty sure

that ended with all of them

getting burned to death

and then swallowed whole

by the wyverns, so

[all exclaiming excitedly]

- Here's the meat in question.

This is a wyvern round steak,

grilled with spices.

I wrapped the breast meat

in leaves and steamed it.

And for the tail meat,

I made a stew with vegetables.

[Lu humming in delight]

- I thought it would be

really tough and gristly,

but this meat,

it's super tender and juicy!

- And to think, a regular

knife couldn't even

pierce its skin,

but now it's so soft!

- This delicacy is just as

delicious as it looks!

- [Lu] I can't understand you.

- This broth tastes amazing!

Every bite of meat I take has

more flavor than the last!

[all humming in delight]

- Hey, you think you could have

blocked Hiraku's spear?

- No, not even close.

That attack pierced a

three-layer barrier

from a wyvern,

and then blew right through

its chest like it was nothing.

- [Lu] Maybe it was

a stroke of luck

that Kuro and the dogs

were who we ran into first

when we came here.

- [Tia] Yeah, you're right.

- What's the matter?

Did I not get all the bones?

- No, it's just we're blessed

to enjoy our meals

in good health.

- That's right.

We thank fate for smiling on us.

- It's no big deal!

- [Tia] This one's

delicious, too!

- [Lu] It really is!

[menacing music]

- [Grattz] You say

a wyvern was taken down?

Enough of these jokes!

- No, the report we

received is true.

- Impossible!

One of those things drawing near

requires that we mobilize

our entire military force!

There's no way

- He was attacked from the

ground and k*lled in two hits.

- Absurd!

- Enough of these jokes!

- [Beezel] It's true.

- [growls] We can't fight that!

And we just finished getting

this year's budget approved!

- [Grattz] No

It's a joke, right?

- [Beezel] Stop saying that.

Now, before panic begins to

spread among our citizens,

it's our job as the generals

to handle this.

- [Randan] I've got it!

Let's resign!

- [Beezel] Please don't.

Don't run away

from this, Randan!

[intense music]

- [Dryme] Did you see it, Gucci?

- Yes, I saw it

with my own eyes.

- And what do you

think would happen

if I were to receive

such an attack?

- It would pierce

cleanly through you.

- What do we do?

- It would be foolish to attack.

- [Dryme] Yes, definitely.

[Hiraku humming thoughtfully]

- The wyvern meat was

every bit as delicious

as it was said to be,

but if I'm being honest,

there's still one thing that

was missing from the meal.

[Lu squealing excitedly]

- Are we going to start now?

- Is it finally time?

- Huh?

Yeah.

We're making alcohol!

[all gasping excitedly]

If we're making alcohol

out of grapes,

then it's going to be wine.

Apparently, wine exists

in this world.

So everyone was excited and

quickly harvested the grapes.

Now all that's left is to

squash the grapes

and let them ferment.

To do that, we built

this!

- [Lea] We're going to

walk on top of these?

- [Hiraku] Yeah!

Make sure to stomp 'em

real good.

- [Tia] I'm a little hesitant

to stomp on something

that we're going to drink.

- [Hiraku] If you get tired,

you can switch with someone.

- What about you?

- Oh, me? I'm switching the

barrels as they fill up.

By the way,

these barrels were built

by the High Elf Lalasha

because she knows how to

make containers

that are watertight.

I had her make them right away.

All right, you guys

can start now!

- [Lea] Uh

[grapes squishing]

[Lea yelping]

Wow, you really sink into them.

Am I doing it right?

- Great, now let's see

Move in a circular motion

around the whole thing.

- Okay!

Let's go in this direction.

- Okay.

[Tia and Lea groaning anxiously]

[Tia yelping]

- Careful not to slip

and fall, Tia!

- Okay!

[Tia grunting]

Oh, no!

[Tia and Lea yelping]

[Hiraku gasping]

[water splashing]

- [Hiraku] Are you all right?

- I think so!

[Tia and Lea sighing]

- Sorry, Tia.

I bumped into you.

- Not at all, that was my fault.

You know, this would be easier

if we had a way

to keep our rhythm.

It might keep all of

our movements in sync.

- [Lea] Good point.

[Leeta gasping excitedly]

- I have an idea, we can use

that song we used to sing.

It helped us before when

we worked in the village.

- Oh, yeah!

That just might work!

- A song from your village?

- Yeah, that's right!

It goes like this!

One, and two, three, go!

[Leeta and Leely

singing in Elvish]

[all singing in Elvish]

[hands tapping]

[Tia yelping]

[Tia laughing]

[hands tapping]

[grapes squishing]

[Tia laughing]

- Looks like they

found their rhythm.

- [Tia] Hey, Lu!

Come on, it's really fun!

- 'Kay.

You're coming, too.

- Huh?

But I'm-

- [Lu] Let's go!

- [Hiraku] Hey, wait!

- [Lu] Come on!

[Hiraku yelping]

That's it!

[all singing]

[all laughing]

[Hiraku sighing]

- That was a lot of work today.

- I'm exhausted,

but that was a lot of fun.

- [Hiraku] Now, the yeast

on the skin of the grapes

should ferment this for us.

I wonder if we made too much.

- I wouldn't worry about it.

- I'm sure we'll have

no problem drinking it all.

- Totally!

I can't wait to drink it!

- Don't tell me

we didn't make enough!

- [God] See?

Look how much fun he's having!

So can't you forgive me already?

- Absolutely not!

You mistakenly punished

an innocent human soul,

and then sneakily

tried to save him,

only to end up sending him

to the dreaded Forest of Death!

[God flinching]

And you gave him that spear!

I can't believe you

gave him a replica

of the Holy Lance Gryme!

- Well, right now, he's only

using it as a farming tool.

Plus, I got permission,

remember?

- [Goddess] You didn't tell me

you were giving that to a human!

That thing will drain

all of their life force

and k*ll them instantly!

- But he's doing fine right now!

I'm sure it's because he has

super fast recovery abilities

since I gave him such a

healthy body this time around!

- [Goddess] I'm telling you

that you were too careless!

and besides that

And besides that!

Why is the statue that's

supposed to me

a grizzled old man?

- [God] That is not my fault!

- [Goddess] No excuses!

As punishment, you will sit

like that for 300 years!

- Please forgive me,

my daughter!

[leaves rustling]

[hammer tapping]

[wolves growling]

[Flora whimpering]

- [Hiraku] I'm sensing

deja vu, here.

- Flora?

- My dear sister!

- [Hiraku] They're

actually related?

- [Flora] Yes!

It was not long

after I figured out

that you were being chased

by that black-hearted angel,

I decided to follow you

all the way here.

- Who did you say was

black-hearted?

- [Flora] [yelps]

Why is she here?

It was just an expression!

- [Hiraku] Apparently,

Flora is also a vampire.

And she's related to Lu.

- Please, sister, help me!

- Since you're already

here, why not relax

and stay with us for a while?

- Okay.

I'm having a hard time

believing he's Lu's husband.

Something feels off

about all this.

[wolf growling]

Ah, no, nevermind!

- He's the one in charge here.

And he's the master of

all these inferno wolves.

He even took down

a giant wyvern!

- I see now.

- I'm sorry for my behavior!

- Don't worry about it.

So anyways, you guys

are wolves, Kuro?

I had no idea!

[Kuro growling]

What's the inferno part mean?

[fire roaring]

Wow, that's amazing!

- You've been living

with them this whole time

and didn't know?

- I believe they're

well-known magical beasts.

[Flora gasping excitedly]

- You can think of this

as an apology.

For Kuro and the wolves.

We went ahead and

made dinner for you.

[Flora munching happily]

[Lu chuckling nervously]

- [Flora] It's great!

[sighs] This is fantastic!

What's that soft, white stuff?

- [Hiraku] Oh, that's

called tofu.

After a lot of tries,

I finally got it right.

- [Lu] It's made from

a bean called soybean.

- [Flora] Wow, this is

made from beans?

- Flavoring soup with salt

is fine and all,

but I really wanted some miso.

Plus, I wanted to be able to put

soy sauce on other stuff.

- Miso? And soy sauce?

- [Hiraku] Miso and

soy sauce are made

from fermented soybeans

and help to flavor food.

- Fermented?

- [Hiraku] Basically,

it seems in this world,

fermented foods like

wine and cheese exist.

However, they aren't aware

of the microorganisms

that actually cause

fermentation.

- I see.

If tiny organisms we aren't able

to see with our eyes exist,

and these same organisms

can cause

transformations in matter

without magic,

then that would serve

to explain all of this.

- Come on, eat or talk, Flora.

- It seems that, like Lu,

she's also passionate

about her research.

- I have found a fascinating

new subject for my research!

I will bring the wonders

of miso and soy sauce

to all that I cross!

And then there will

come a day when I will

feast upon miso soup

and cold tofu forever!

- [Hiraku] After staying

a few days,

Flora left with great haste

and excitement

so she could make preparations

to move.

- [Flora] I have returned!

- Okay.

- That was way faster

than I thought.

You even brought

the maids with you.

- Nice to meet you.

My name is Anne, and I speak

on behalf of the other maids

as their rep.

We ask that you put us to use

as you so see fit, master.

- Uh, you don't really need

to be that formal.

By the way, what are those?

I mean, those are just

normal cows, right?

- [Flora] That's right!

I made sure to bring

the right cows with me

that would give us milk.

- Oh!

This is great!

Now we can make

butter and cheese!

[Tia humming thoughtfully]

[Tia gasping]

- [Tia] Excuse me!

- What the-

That's close!

- I need to leave here

for a short while.

- Sure.

I wonder what she's

going off to do.

[cow mooing]

- I have now returned!

- Okay.

- And I have brought my

underlings here with me as well!

- My name is Granmaria.

- I'm Kudel.

- I'm Corone, it's a pleasure

to finally meet you.

- I'm Daga, the representative

of the lizardmen.

- Also I've prepared

this as well!

[chicken clucking]

It's a chicken!

- Does it breathe fire?

- It does not.

- What about eggs?

- It lays them!

That's great.

[Tia laughs happily]

Thanks to everyone here,

this place got

a lot more civilized.

- For the rooms on

this side, Lamulias,

I want them dusted before

we wash the floors.

- Understood, Miss.

- Oh, sorry for interrupting.

- It's fine.

- [Hiraku] The maids

that arrived

belong to a race of ogres.

I guess it's to be expected

since they're professionals,

but as soon as they showed up,

all our chores got done

a lot faster.

However, the inhabitants

of this world

don't seem to cook any

complicated dishes.

I tried to teach them

all the different methods

of cooking that I knew.

Dressing salads!

Steaming!

- [Maids] Ah!

- [Hiraku] It seems like I got

them interested in cooking

all at once.

[knife tapping]

- [Anne] Dinner is served.

Today, I tried making

a dish of k*ller rabbit

with fragrant vegetables.

- Oh, wow.

So those things are called

k*ller rabbits, huh?

This looks wild.

They're all very strong,

despite their appearances.

They display both proper manners

and a bit of power.

Then there are the

angels that Tia brought.

- Now then, you're all to patrol

a different region

of the forest.

- [Hiraku] Granmaria,

Kudel, and Corone.

I was wondering why

they all showed up

in such serious-looking armor.

It seems that after

the wyvern attack,

Tia planned on

having them act as

our security on the premises.

I feel safer having them around.

The lizardmen are

in charge of all labor

that requires strength outdoors.

Thanks to them,

our construction work

is moving even faster now.

By the way, I had

their leader, Daga,

tie a scarf around his arm.

I feel bad, but I'm not able to

tell them apart otherwise.

- I guess that does

make sense in a way.

- Now that I think about it,

this place is really filling up

with people living here.

How many of us are there?

[graph beeping]

A lot.

- [Lea] Hiraku!

I brought all the elves

that were still

wandering the forest!

- [Hiraku] Oh?

Now there are even more?

So are they all women?

Where are the men?

I don't see them.

- There weren't really any men

who survived the human w*r.

- Oh, wow.

- But that's okay, really.

We can just start making

lots more now!

[elves cheering]

- I hope that works out for you!

I decided not to ask them

how they planned to do it.

- Hey, what's going on here?

- Who knows?

I'm just here because

I was asked to come.

- He said to gather

all the different

representatives here today.

- I wonder if some sort of

terrible problem has arisen.

- [Hiraku] Hey.

Sorry for calling you all

here like this.

There's something I wanna

talk about with all of you.

[all humming questioningly]

Here's the thing.

I want a name for our home here.

- You mean this place?

The farm?

- [Hiraku] Yeah.

At first, it was just

my little hut

and some crop fields,

but then more buildings

started popping up,

and more people

started moving in.

It's like a village now, right?

That's why I wanna come up

with a name for this village.

- I like that idea!

A name for our very own village!

Can't we just name it after you,

since you're the original

founder of the whole place?

- [Hiraku] No.

Then it'd be something like

Hiraku Village or Machio Town.

I don't really like

the sound of that.

- In that case, then,

how about we name it

after the forest we're in?

- That sounds like a good idea!

By the way, what is

this forest called?

- It's the Forest of Death.

- For real? That's scary.

- [Tia] So the Village of Death?

- [Lu] Sounds like a ghost town!

- [Hiraku] It sounds like

it'd have a poisoned swamp.

What is it?

You mean this door, here?

You want me to open it?

[Hiraku grunting]

[door creaking]

The Great Tree Village!

[all humming happily]

[sentimental music]

[fire crackling]

Hello, everyone!

From now on, this place is

the Great Tree Village!

In celebration of this day,

we're going to have a party!

[all cheering]

And no party would be

complete without this!

The first batch of wine

we made here

in the Great Tree Village!

Everyone, enjoy yourselves!

- [Leeta and Leely]

Mayor Hiraku!

- Mayor!

[wolf howling]

[Flora whistling]

- Wait!

No, that's something we need

to decide later, as a group!

- What are you talking about?

You're the only one for the job.

- She's right.

They're already

calling you mayor!

- [Crowd] Mayor Hiraku!

Mayor Hiraku!

- I see.

- [Crowd] Mayor Hiraku!

Mayor Hiraku!

Mayor Hiraku!

[crowd cheering]

[Hiraku laughing]

[mugs clanking]

[sentimental music]

[Lu sighing]

[crowd murmuring]

[Tia gasping]

[Hiraku humming questioningly]

[Tia grunting]

[hand tapping]

[Tia humming]

[hand tapping rapidly]

["Feel the winds"

by Yui Hizuki plays]

- You're a little drunk

there, huh?

- What's the matter, Hiraku?

You're sitting all by

yourself, zoning out.

- Nothing.

Nothing's the matter.

I was just thinking about

how happy I am.

That this all feels

like a dream.

- This isn't a dream.

All of us will keep living

together, enjoying life.

- Yeah, you're right.

I'd like that.

- Yeah?

Let's toast to

the Great Tree Village!

- Yeah!

- [Hiraku And Tia] Cheers!

[mugs tapping]

- [yawns] No fair!

I'm gonna toast, too,

you black-hearted angel!

- Seriously?

You were pretending to sleep

this whole time?

- [Lu] Come on!

- Very well, then.

- How many years has it been?

- [Tia And Lu] Cheers!

It's been a while

since I've had wine.

It tastes better

than I remember.

- Gimme another!

[crowd cheering and laughing]

- I guess I'll give it

a shot as mayor.

[rustic music playing]
