1. Mistress Frieren is looking tired.

2. - Huh?

3. Hm.

4. And now she's out cold.

5. We can't stop. I can carry her.

6. But, Mister Stark, your axe.

7. Oh, yeah.

8. My hands are free. I'll just hold her.

9. Hm?

10. huh?

11. No, I think I'd better do it.

12. Uh, why is that?

13. No reason.

14. The audacity.

15. A measly ten copper coins is all the King could part with?

16. What a cheapskate.

17. I'm not surprised.

18. Many heroes have tried and failed

19. to defeat the Demon King over the years.

20. You can't fund every adventurer.

21. It's no problem.

22. We'll earn money to cover our expenses along the way.

23. There's nothing wrong with that approach.

24. It's part of the adventure.

25. I suppose so.

26. Hold on. Your weapon.

27. That's the Hero's Sword.

28. No, it's a replica.

29. Hm.

30. I once rescued a merchant

31. who was attacked in my hometown.

32. This sword was my reward.

33. The man said I'd be a hero one day.

34. Probably told every kid that.

35. That's what made you choose this path in life?

36. Not quite.

37. See, there was this annoying brat named Heiter

38. at the village orphanage.

39. He kept telling me I'd only ever be a fake hero

40. because I wielded a fake sword.

41. He was such a pain.

42. Hm.

43. I figured if I proved him wrong,

44. I'd have the last laugh.

45. So here I am.

46. One of these days,

47. I'll hold the real Hero's Sword in my hand and use it

48. to defeat the Demon King.

49. But that'll never happen if we don't keep moving.

50. If you're wondering about the brat,

51. he grew up to become a fake priest

52. who stays lost in his cups.

53. I'm a real priest.

54. Just a dream.

55. You're alive.

56. I was afraid you'd never wake up.

57. I feel as though I've been here before.

58. Perhaps I'm still dreaming.

59. If you were, it'd be warmer.

60. I underestimated the mountain weather.

61. We need to keep going north.

62. The village we're heading to isn't far.

63. Very well.

64. Now that you're awake,

65. do you think you're able to walk?

66. No.

67. Are you sure?

68. You smell nice.

69. Great.

70. You must be tired

71. from carrying her this whole time.

72. You rest now. I'll take over.

73. Huh?

74. Hmm.

75. Perv.

76. What did I do?

77. For a moment, I thought we'd freeze to death.

78. But the blizzard is settling down.

79. Wow. So there really is a village

80. this deep into the mountains.

81. We've been waiting for your return, Miss Frieren.

82. You're chief of this village now?

83. - You're a child. - That's right!

84. I come from a long line of chiefs.

85. I'm the 49th.

86. Welcome to the Village of the Sword.

87. We spotted a smashed-up house on our way in.

88. You must mean that old hunting cabin

89. that got destroyed.

90. The lord of the mountains is to blame.

91. The who?

92. I don't remember there being a lord.

93. I can't believe I'm actually here.

94. You know of this place, Mister Stark?

95. This village used to protect the Hero's Sword.

96. According to stories, the weapon was hidden

97. in a sanctuary somewhere close by,

98. stuck inside a mighty stone.

99. Throughout history, many heroes tried to pull the sword

100. from its rocky sheath, but none were successful.

101. Until 80 years ago, that is.

102. Let me think. How did they explain it in the legend?

103. "There is but one person who can claim this sword.

104. The hero who will drive off the great calamity

105. that aims to destroy this world."

106. Yeah, that's it.

107. You're talking about Himmel, aren't you?

108. He was able to take the sword?

109. Exactly.

110. The story is pretty famous.

111. Are you positive you've never heard it before?

112. No. Master Heiter never mentioned it.

113. Here we are.

114. Finally, warmth.

115. I must admit, I'm thoroughly disappointed in you.

116. You were supposed to return here

117. after half a century had passed.

118. I'm a mild-mannered person,

119. but even I'm pissed off you're late!

120. How'd that sound?

121. My grandmother said I should tell you that

122. when you showed up.

123. I told her everything would be fine

124. if I waited a little longer instead.

125. - Hm. - The villagers here

126. have protected the Hero's Sword for generations.

127. They can easily defend themselves from danger.

128. We can hold our own if needs be,

129. but you still have a duty you promised to fulfill.

130. What is she talking about?

131. Monster extermination.

132. The area around the village attracts quite a few of them.

133. The lord of the mountains has been

134. an especially unruly pain as of late.

135. I'll get started first thing tomorrow morning.

136. Better to deal with this sooner rather than later.

137. Why are there so many monsters roaming near the village?

138. Surely you could have hired some traveling adventurers

139. to take them out before they became a problem for you.

140. I wish I could, but that's not an option.

141. Of course. Because Himmel is the Hero.

142. Hm.

143. Whoa, there's even more of 'em swarming down there.

144. Looks like they want inside the cave.

145. Huh?

146. Hey, Frieren. Why is the...

147. That's the lord!

148. No wonder I didn't recognize your name.

149. You only showed up in the last 80 years.

150. Not nearly long enough to be a lord.

151. You're up, Stark. I know you're not dead yet.

152. You're so mean! Ask nicely!

153. - Excellent work.

154. I have fulfilled my duty to this place.

155. Frieren. I don't understand.

156. That's the Hero's Sword in there.

157. It's what draws so many monsters

158. to the mouth of this cave.

159. A powerful barrier prevents them

160. from gaining entry,

161. but they can't shake off the impulse

162. to destroy the weapon.

163. They must be truly terrified of it.

164. You know that isn't what I meant.

165. Yes, I do.

166. Himmel tried, but he couldn't pull the sword from the stone.

167. Another failure.

168. We'll keep waiting for the real hero.

169. Are you okay?

170. I don't think there's anything wrong

171. with being a fake hero.

172. I'll still defeat the Demon King

173. and bring peace to the world.

174. And when I'm done,

175. nobody's going to be concerned about me

176. being a fake or not.

177. In the end, Himmel lived up to his promise.

178. Even without the fabled sword, he managed to save the world.

179. He was a real hero.

180. Why was the truth covered up

181. in favor of this story, then?

182. Probably because people wanted Himmel

183. to be some mythic warrior.

184. It wouldn't do for him to fail inside the cave.

185. There's no place for embarrassing stories

186. in a hero's tale.

187. When a new generation comes of age,

188. they romanticize the heroes of the past.

189. The truth of who a person was falls away,

190. and they become an idea.

191. I always believed you would bring safety

192. back to our village, Miss Frieren.

193. I'm grateful as hell.

194. My grandmother said to tell you that, too.

195. Sounds like your grandmother had quite the mouth on her.

196. Guess I'll see you in another 50 years.

197. See ya then! And don't be late next time!

198. Once we drop our belongings off at the inn,

199. you're free to do what you want.

200. It's been a while since we were in a real town.

201. This'll be nice.

202. What'll you do with your afternoon?

203. I'm sure there are plenty of shops we could explore.

204. Not interested, thanks.

205. I'd rather stay inside and read some grimoires.

206. I see.

207. I'll go on my own, then.

208. Oh. That's right.

209. Today is Stark's 18th birthday.

210. Hm.

211. Don't you think that's something

212. you could've mentioned to me a bit earlier?

213. I don't have anything to give him

214. as a birthday present.

215. Just buy something for him while you're in town.

216. But I don't know what kind of gift he would even want.

217. I wonder who's to blame for that.

218. You are, Mistress Frieren.

219. Based on the way you're acting,

220. I assume you have a present for him?

221. He's going to love this.

222. A potion that dissolves clothing.

223. According to my master,

224. this is the type of gift men enjoy receiving.

225. Stark will be overjoyed.

226. Um, I...

227. What? Curious to know how it works?

228. Oh, oh!

229. I remember when you purchased this,

230. because I told you to return

231. the vulgar concoction immediately.

232. I can't believe how crass you are.

233. What a waste. This was expensive.

234. Gah. What am I gonna give him now?

235. Oh.

236. Oh.

237. I forgot about this.

238. I'll try to figure out

239. what he'd be interested in myself.

240. With any luck, he won't notice.

241. Mister Stark?

242. Hm.

243. He must have gone out already.

244. A warrior with an axe on his back?

245. Yes. That young man helped me push my cart up here.

246. I think he said he was headed towards the plaza next.

247. We were hanging out with him, but he left a little while ago.

248. It was so brave the way he raced up that tree

249. and helped us climb back down.

250. That boy stopped my rampaging cow.

251. He's helped so many people in town.

252. How could Mistress Frieren be so vile?

253. There's no way he would appreciate

254. that disgusting potion.

255. Right?

256. Huh.

257. - There you are! - Ah!

258. That cloud looks like a lady with huge boobs.

259. So he is a pervert.

260. Dang.

261. That one's a big pile a' poop!

262. No, he's just incredibly immature.

263. I'll have to tell Fern about these later.

264. How does he expect me to respond?

265. - Mister Stark.

266. Hey, Fern! You've got perfect timing.

267. Take a look at those.

268. On second thought, never mind.

269. Um, anyway.

270. Would you like to go for a walk?

271. Sure.

272. So, seems like you're kind of upset.

273. What did I do wrong?

274. How to broach the subject?

275. Please tell me what to apologize for.

276. No matter how sly I am, he'll know something's up.

277. I should just be forward.

278. Mister Stark,

279. is there anything you'd like me to purchase for you?

280. Wait, what?

281. Today's your birthday, is it not?

282. Yeah, I guess it is.

283. But what's that got to do with you buying me stuff?

284. Don't play dumb. I want to get you a present.

285. What? Why would you do that?

286. Just forget about it.

287. You're insufferable.

288. Wait.

289. Come back. I wasn't joking with you, I swear.

290. It's just, no one's given me a birthday present before,

291. so it sounded weird.

292. That's right, not a single gift from my master

293. or my family back when they were still alive.

294. I didn't know that was something that people did.

295. Not even one from your parents?

296. So it wasn't a custom where you come from.

297. No.

298. They probably just didn't care enough

299. to bother getting me one.

300. My village valued warriors,

301. which meant that they looked down upon the weak.

302. You put on a pathetic display.

303. Can't you be more like Stoltz?

304. Not only is he unharmed,

305. he doesn't have speck of dirt or a drop of blood on him.

306. That clean white cape is undeniable proof

307. that he's the strongest warrior among you fools.

308. You are the pride of our village, Stoltz.

309. I do my best, father.

310. Then, of course, there's your brother.

311. Our family's great shame.

312. Despite the intense training he does every day,

313. he's too much of a weakling to stand against a monster.

314. A storm approaches. Let's go home.

315. I'll stay and spar with my brother.

316. Fine, but he's a waste of your time.

317. Do try not to injure him too badly.

318. - Stark.

319. - Hm.

320. Brother.

321. Sorry.

322. You have impressive focus.

323. One day, you'll be stronger.

324. Here, let me show you how to fix your stance.

325. Well, actually,

326. my brother was different from the rest of them.

327. But...

328. When demons attacked my village, I abandoned him.

329. Fled while he stayed and fought.

330. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised

331. my family never celebrated my birthday.

332. I was the failure. A coward.

333. I'm sure Himmel wouldn't have run away that night.

334. Mister Stark.

335. Let's go pick out something nice for you.

336. The past is irrelevant now.

337. And the Stark I know is a true warrior.

338. He's never run away from a fight.

339. But I can't guarantee that I won't one day.

340. There's no way we'd let you.

341. That's easy to say.

342. If you won't pick what you want,

343. I'll choose something.

344. Fine, fine.

345. Hm.

346. - This one is my favorite - Too expensive.

347. - Try again. - Right.

348. Welcome back. You took your time.

349. What's going on?

350. Why did you make us such ridiculously large

351. hamburg steaks?

352. How are they ridiculous?

353. This is what you eat on your birthday.

354. Like I said, my master wasn't one to give presents,

355. but he always cooked me a big hamburg steak on my birthday.

356. You knew about this?

357. Hey, Stark.

358. Didn't Eisen explain this to you?

359. Explain what?

360. Warriors are so bad when it comes to sharing.

361. I'd say that's fairly rich coming from you.

362. You do have a point.

363. But I relate because I'm the same way.

364. We're foolish.

365. People don't know how you truly feel

366. unless you tell them directly.

367. You see...

368. Come to think of it,

369. you always make comically large hamburg steaks

370. whenever it's one of our birthdays,

371. so there must be a meaning behind it.

372. It's a long-held custom in my part of the world.

373. These oversized servings

374. are a way to honor warriors who put in hard work.

375. You can think of this as a birthday present from me.

376. Only one problem.

377. You're the only warrior here, Eisen.

378. Every person who works hard is a warrior.

379. Is that true?

380. Who can say?

381. These are for warriors who are putting in hard work.

382. What are you making, brother?

383. Hamburg steak.

384. It's your birthday, right?

385. This can be our little secret.

386. Go. Run, Stark.

387. You have to survive.

388. Eisen wrote down the recipe for me a while back.

389. How does it taste?

390. It's good.

391. Also, I was able to salvage a little of this.

392. I won't hesitate to pour that on your head again.

393. Huh? What is that?

394. Nothing. Forget she mentioned anything.

395. It's a valuable potion.

396. Ooh. What's it do?

397. - Pervert. - What? How so?

398. Disgusting.

399. Seriously, what did I say?
