1. Now that the sun has set,
Copy !req
2. the first test
is officially over.
Copy !req
3. Six parties
and 18 individuals remain
Copy !req
4. and will move
to the next trial.
Copy !req
5. The second test
will take place in three days.
Copy !req
6. You will be informed
of the details later.
Copy !req
7. That is all.
You're dismissed.
Copy !req
8. Already evening?
Copy !req
9. Guess at this point
there's no harm
Copy !req
10. lazing around a bit.
Copy !req
11. Huh.
Copy !req
12. What's their deal?
Copy !req
13. I'm coming!
Copy !req
14. Fern, you're...
Copy !req
15. You're supposed to be
Copy !req
16. at the first-class mage
exam right now.
Copy !req
17. Thanks for telling me
what I'm supposed to do,
Copy !req
18. but the first test is complete.
Copy !req
19. You look rumpled.
Copy !req
20. Were you sleeping?
Copy !req
21. Huh?
Copy !req
22. Don't deny it.
Copy !req
23. Huh.
Copy !req
24. Did you stay up late?
Copy !req
25. Maybe.
Copy !req
26. And what else?
Copy !req
27. I might have drunk some juice
as a midnight snack.
Copy !req
28. I'm sorry! I was thirsty!
Copy !req
29. Uh-oh. You've made her angry.
Copy !req
30. Please, Mistress Frieren.
Copy !req
31. You woke up mere moments ago.
Copy !req
32. Caught in the crossfire.
Copy !req
33. Suddenly, pleasing Fern's
on the top of our to-do list.
Copy !req
34. Do you have any good ideas?
Copy !req
35. A tasty meal
typically does the trick.
Copy !req
36. And where do we get that?
Copy !req
37. It's a bit expensive,
Copy !req
38. but I found a nice place
when I visited here before
Copy !req
39. with Himmel and the others.
Copy !req
40. Yeah, but that had
to have been over 80 years ago.
Copy !req
41. Will it still be there?
Copy !req
42. My!
Copy !req
43. It shines just like new!
Copy !req
44. I told you that
it was an easy fix.
Copy !req
45. As always,
thank you very much, Richter.
Copy !req
46. Sure thing.
Copy !req
47. As for payment,
I thought you'd enjoy these.
Copy !req
48. - Hm?
- I'll see you soon, dear.
Copy !req
49. Grandma, you do realize
Copy !req
50. I'm not a child anymore,
don't you?
Copy !req
51. I've been a grown man
for some time.
Copy !req
52. To an old lady,
you're still a sweet, baby boy.
Copy !req
53. Grown-ups like treats, too.
Copy !req
54. Hm.
Copy !req
55. Hm.
Copy !req
56. Sorry, you two,
but the shop is closed.
Copy !req
57. A demented old man dragged me
Copy !req
58. into a fistfight
over a silly bird.
Copy !req
59. I need a while
to rest and recover.
Copy !req
60. My, it sounds like you've
had it awfully rough, Richter.
Copy !req
61. Why don't you relax
over dinner with us?
Copy !req
62. I've been to a good restaurant
around here,
Copy !req
63. but Laufen and I
don't know the area
Copy !req
64. well enough to find it.
Copy !req
65. You're in on this, too, Laufen?
Copy !req
66. I'm shocked to see you
with Denken.
Copy !req
67. And where did you
buy those pastries?
Copy !req
68. Actually, the old man
bought them for me.
Copy !req
69. I'm not sharing.
Copy !req
70. In a matter of hours,
you've become his grandchild.
Copy !req
71. Go away.
Copy !req
72. We're no longer party members.
Copy !req
73. You don't know how to get along
in this world, do you?
Copy !req
74. If you intend to continue
living as a mage,
Copy !req
75. it would most certainly behoove
you to remain on my good side.
Copy !req
76. There are plenty of great
restaurants around.
Copy !req
77. Take your pick.
Copy !req
78. Before my wife passed,
Copy !req
79. we visited a restaurant here
Copy !req
80. that served
the most delicious food.
Copy !req
81. I have never forgotten
the taste.
Copy !req
82. You better be paying.
Copy !req
83. Well, of course I am.
Copy !req
84. I always take care of those
on my good side!
Copy !req
85. - Huh.
Copy !req
86. Huh.
Copy !req
87. - Hey, four-eyes.
Copy !req
88. Huh.
Copy !req
89. Joy of joys.
Copy !req
90. It's nice to finally meet you.
Copy !req
91. So, you give the clone
some time off
Copy !req
92. when you're
strolling around town?
Copy !req
93. If you must make small talk,
Copy !req
94. can we at least
continue walking?
Copy !req
95. Sure, that's fine.
Copy !req
96. But if you try to lose me,
I might have to kill you.
Copy !req
97. Speaking of, I have a question.
Copy !req
98. Go on.
Copy !req
99. You're a killer.
Copy !req
100. And you don't feel
the slightest bit
Copy !req
101. of guilt taking a life.
Copy !req
102. So, why didn't you
eliminate Wirbel?
Copy !req
103. You had every opportunity.
Copy !req
104. You were watching all that?
Copy !req
105. Guess nothing gets
past you, does it?
Copy !req
106. Hm.
Copy !req
107. It's hard to explain,
so try to stay with me.
Copy !req
108. How interesting.
Copy !req
109. Your hands are as drenched
in blood as they could be,
Copy !req
110. yet at the end of the day,
you want to remain human.
Copy !req
111. You nailed me.
Copy !req
112. I use this time
to prepare myself to kill.
Copy !req
113. I couldn't help
but empathize with him.
Copy !req
114. He made me want to put off
Copy !req
115. delivering that
final blow, too.
Copy !req
116. Hm.
Copy !req
117. What has she done?
Copy !req
118. I can't move.
Copy !req
119. This is Sorganeil,
Copy !req
120. the nifty binding spell
I picked up from Wirbel.
Copy !req
121. The type of magic
a mage specializes in
Copy !req
122. has everything to do
with the life they've led
Copy !req
123. and the person they are.
Copy !req
124. Empathy has always been
my secret weapon.
Copy !req
125. If I can relate to somebody,
Copy !req
126. then I can pick up
their spells in a heartbeat.
Copy !req
127. Hence my frustration with
closed-book types like you.
Copy !req
128. Your clones intrigue me,
four-eyes.
Copy !req
129. Not only are they
perfect replicas of yourself,
Copy !req
130. but they're capable
of every punch
Copy !req
131. and pull you are.
Copy !req
132. I'm just dying to know
what kind of life
Copy !req
133. the ever-stoic Land has led.
Copy !req
134. So, tell me.
Copy !req
135. Ah, you're one of those.
Copy !req
136. A mage who relies on instinct
rather than technical skill.
Copy !req
137. You cast these spells
without understanding
Copy !req
138. the principles behind them.
Copy !req
139. Instead, you feel the magic.
Copy !req
140. Laugh... but I despise
Copy !req
141. dim-witted people
like yourself.
Copy !req
142. So, are you going
to let me in, or not?
Copy !req
143. Put in the simplest of terms,
Copy !req
144. I will not, because
I do not like you.
Copy !req
145. I would be careful
how you choose to proceed.
Copy !req
146. I don't care either way,
Copy !req
147. but you can't relate
to me if you kill me.
Copy !req
148. Eh. Run along.
Copy !req
149. You can try to hide,
Copy !req
150. but I already caught
a sliver of the real you.
Copy !req
151. Oh?
Copy !req
152. I think I'd like to see more.
Copy !req
153. Where are you headed,
oh, so obstinately?
Copy !req
154. Who knows?
Copy !req
155. Please don't follow me.
Copy !req
156. This is it.
Copy !req
157. Well, you have
a good palate, Denken.
Copy !req
158. Superb choice.
Copy !req
159. This place is by far
the best restaurant in town.
Copy !req
160. I come often.
Copy !req
161. My wife and I ate here
Copy !req
162. what must've been
50 years ago now.
Copy !req
163. It looks like
it hasn't changed a bit.
Copy !req
164. Time is a mysterious thing.
Copy !req
165. - Are you kidding?
- Hm?
Copy !req
166. You're absolutely sure
I can order
Copy !req
167. as many desserts as I want?
Copy !req
168. Of course.
Copy !req
169. I suppose that great minds
think alike.
Copy !req
170. Everything sounds so amazing!
Copy !req
171. I recommend this.
Copy !req
172. It's not my birthday
or anything.
Copy !req
173. Is it wrong for me to indulge?
Copy !req
174. Oh, leave them be.
Copy !req
175. It looks like
they're having fun.
Copy !req
176. Meals should be times of joy,
not stress.
Copy !req
177. And we're all here
for the same reason.
Copy !req
178. Ahh!
Copy !req
179. At long last,
it's time to stuff my face.
Copy !req
180. You're not
playing around, huh?
Copy !req
181. Mistress Frieren's
ravenous side
Copy !req
182. only comes out
every once in a while.
Copy !req
183. Hm.
Copy !req
184. When the demons
took this heirloom knife,
Copy !req
185. I feared that I would live
the rest of my days without it.
Copy !req
186. When you help Lecker,
Copy !req
187. the greatest chef
of the century,
Copy !req
188. then I, Lecker, will help you
Copy !req
189. to the dining experience
of a lifetime
Copy !req
190. completely on the house!
Copy !req
191. That's a lot of food
for one elf.
Copy !req
192. You don't find food
this delicious often.
Copy !req
193. We must take
every bite we can get.
Copy !req
194. Life is long
and food is aplenty.
Copy !req
195. There's always next time,
you know.
Copy !req
196. Thought so, too,
until I found myself
Copy !req
197. up at night mourning
the flavors of yesterday.
Copy !req
198. - Huh.
- Huh.
Copy !req
199. Oh, don't worry about
this place, Miss Frieren.
Copy !req
200. Huh?
Copy !req
201. In a hundred years,
Copy !req
202. the food here will be
just the same.
Copy !req
203. Time is strong.
Taste is stronger.
Copy !req
204. Sure.
That's what they all say.
Copy !req
205. Chefs promise consistency,
Copy !req
206. but just wait.
Copy !req
207. In a few years, your pupils
Copy !req
208. will be making
your recipes their own.
Copy !req
209. If that happens,
Copy !req
210. we can simply journey on
to find better flavors.
Copy !req
211. You'll be let down,
Mister Himmel.
Copy !req
212. No flavors exist in this world
that are superior to mine.
Copy !req
213. In that case, make sure
they last into the future.
Copy !req
214. Let that be our reward
for this job.
Copy !req
215. I'm putting my faith in you.
Copy !req
216. If that's what you wish,
brave hero.
Copy !req
217. I'll do what no chef
has done before
Copy !req
218. and take on time itself.
Copy !req
219. You all have my word.
Copy !req
220. Good call, Frieren!
This is seriously incredible!
Copy !req
221. I don't know if we deserve
such happiness.
Copy !req
222. What a joke.
Copy !req
223. Despite his talk, the flavors
have changed since back then.
Copy !req
224. But... on a positive note,
Copy !req
225. my search for something
more delicious ends here.
Copy !req
226. It's even better now
than at my first visit.
Copy !req
227. Hm.
Copy !req
228. Life changing is
putting it lightly.
Copy !req
229. Wipe your face, Mister Stark.
Copy !req
230. You look a mess.
Copy !req
231. You must eat your vegetables,
young lady.
Copy !req
232. Something only a grandfather
would say.
Copy !req
233. Hmm.
Copy !req
234. You're a lighter eater
than I expected.
Copy !req
235. What, is that a problem?
Copy !req
236. - That was no less
Copy !req
237. than divine, Mistress Frieren.
Copy !req
238. I think we saved
her mood and our night.
Copy !req
239. Yeah, but happiness
came at what cost?
Copy !req
240. I used up the very last
of my savings.
Copy !req
241. Greet nothingness.
Copy !req
242. Good day,
Copy !req
243. and be proud,
for you have arrived
Copy !req
244. at the essence
of the art of war.
Copy !req
245. The master's lessons
are the student's tricks now.
Copy !req
246. I bid you farewell.
Copy !req
247. Hm.
Copy !req
248. Who was that elderly fellow?
Copy !req
249. I have no idea.
Copy !req
250. He just talks at me
while I'm training.
Copy !req
251. You seem to be quite
the beacon for oddballs.
Copy !req
252. Whatever the case,
Copy !req
253. - are you free?
- Hm?
Copy !req
254. I'd like your help
with something.
Copy !req
255. What happened this time?
Copy !req
256. Great. An advanced state
of grumpy.
Copy !req
257. She's in an even worse
mood than yesterday.
Copy !req
258. Yep.
Copy !req
259. So, what the heck
did you do wrong?
Copy !req
260. It was my turn
to do the shopping,
Copy !req
261. but I may've accidentally
overslept a little.
Copy !req
262. Okay, but you oversleep
more times than not.
Copy !req
263. Why'd it bug her today?
Copy !req
264. Fern is the type to let
anger build up inside
Copy !req
265. until she has to explode.
Copy !req
266. And what does
that explosion entail?
Copy !req
267. Oh, just the dreaded
silent treatment.
Copy !req
268. Do you two have to fight
like children?
Copy !req
269. Please, I beg you, Stark!
Copy !req
270. Mediate for us?
Copy !req
271. I can hardly get her
to grunt in my direction!
Copy !req
272. Huh? You've gotta
be kidding me!
Copy !req
273. That's way too scary!
Copy !req
274. Right, of course.
Copy !req
275. You wouldn't put
your life on the line.
Copy !req
276. So, uh, Mistress Fern.
Copy !req
277. Your old pal Frieren says
Copy !req
278. she's terribly sorry
for being lazy.
Copy !req
279. - I'm hungry.
- Huh?
Copy !req
280. I want to eat snacks.
Copy !req
281. Huh?
Copy !req
282. She's a real pain
in the butt.
Copy !req
283. Great! How about you
and I go snack shopping?
Copy !req
284. Hope my secret savings
Copy !req
285. aren't dry, too.
Copy !req
286. Huh.
Copy !req
287. I know him from the test.
Copy !req
288. I'm pretty sure that's Wirbel
of the Northern Magic Corps.
Copy !req
289. Huh?
Copy !req
290. You're a warrior, yeah?
Copy !req
291. Huh? Uh, I don't know you, sir.
Copy !req
292. Will he do?
Copy !req
293. Hey!
Copy !req
294. What the heck?
Copy !req
295. - Hm.
- Let's keep looking.
Copy !req
296. He's not it.
Copy !req
297. Huh.
Copy !req
298. I wonder what he's up to.
Copy !req
299. Thanks for waiting, Kanne.
Copy !req
300. Hm.
Copy !req
301. Wow, Lawine, you're looking
even cuter than usual.
Copy !req
302. All of my brothers just got
home from the imperial capital.
Copy !req
303. They never fail to return
with trifles that I don't want.
Copy !req
304. Grown men shouldn't
need a dress-up doll.
Copy !req
305. But my mom gets into it, too.
Copy !req
306. She makes no effort
to stop them.
Copy !req
307. You're even
more spoiled than me.
Copy !req
308. If you want my life, you're
more than welcome to it.
Copy !req
309. Constantly being compared
to genius brothers
Copy !req
310. is utterly grueling.
Copy !req
311. Let's get moving
Copy !req
312. before this outfit
strangles me.
Copy !req
313. Hm.
Copy !req
314. Today, nothing would
please me more
Copy !req
315. than being your prince,
my lady.
Copy !req
316. Ow! You're gonna rip them
outta my poor little head!
Copy !req
317. Hm?
Copy !req
318. Hey, so. Mistress Fern?
Copy !req
319. Are you craving
something special?
Copy !req
320. Anything is fine.
Copy !req
321. I don't care.
Just make it quick.
Copy !req
322. Translation?
Copy !req
323. She cares, and she cares a lot.
Copy !req
324. What should I pick?
Copy !req
325. I'm afraid that I know
no better than you.
Copy !req
326. - Huh.
- Huh.
Copy !req
327. Hey, look at those ears.
Copy !req
328. - Isn't that Frieren?
- Uh-huh.
Copy !req
329. I'm glad we ran into you.
Copy !req
330. We were just thinking about
coming by the inn to say hello.
Copy !req
331. Who are these girls?
Copy !req
332. The first test was completed
in groups of three,
Copy !req
333. and they were in mine.
Copy !req
334. Best group ever!
Copy !req
335. We were lucky to be on a team
Copy !req
336. with someone as wise
as Frieren!
Copy !req
337. She was also a teacher
and a leader, too!
Copy !req
338. - Hm?
- You were too busy
Copy !req
339. fighting to lead yourselves.
Copy !req
340. Maybe, but that
was Lawine's fault.
Copy !req
341. A boy can't relax
with all these ladies around.
Copy !req
342. - Hey.
- Huh?
Copy !req
343. Fancy yourself a warrior, yeah?
Copy !req
344. What?
Copy !req
345. Hey, fellas.
What are you guys...
Copy !req
346. You're really hands on, huh?
Copy !req
347. - Looks good.
Copy !req
348. Bet you could get
the job done, champ.
Copy !req
349. Don't hurt me!
Copy !req
350. There's a Fresser
tearing up crops,
Copy !req
351. and the Continental Magic
Association hired me
Copy !req
352. to do pest control
while I'm here,
Copy !req
353. but I'm in dire need
of a front liner.
Copy !req
354. After all the fun
we had during the test,
Copy !req
355. the least you could do is
let me borrow your comrade.
Copy !req
356. - Take him.
- So mean!
Copy !req
357. - Just kicked me to the curb.
- Are you okay with him
Copy !req
358. stealing your friend?
Copy !req
359. My friend will be fine.
Copy !req
360. I didn't sense
any malicious intent.
Copy !req
361. He's very different
than he was in the test.
Copy !req
362. He's probably the type who can
turn it off and on for work.
Copy !req
363. That's how my brothers are.
Copy !req
364. Here, Frieren.
Copy !req
365. To say thank you.
Copy !req
366. Hm.
Copy !req
367. That's kind, but I don't see
what I did to deserve thanks.
Copy !req
368. Come on.
Copy !req
369. You're the whole reason
we advanced.
Copy !req
370. If it weren't for your plan,
Copy !req
371. we never would've
caught our Stille.
Copy !req
372. So, thank you.
Copy !req
373. Huh.
Copy !req
374. Thank you!
Copy !req
375. You're the best, Himmel!
Copy !req
376. You have nothing to fear now.
Copy !req
377. Yeah.
Copy !req
378. Go on. Watch over
your parents for me.
Copy !req
379. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
380. What's your motivation
for helping people, Himmel?
Copy !req
381. I'm a hero, of course.
Copy !req
382. That's not really a motivation.
Copy !req
383. Tough question.
Copy !req
384. Speaking frankly,
I might do it for me.
Copy !req
385. So that when
I leave this world,
Copy !req
386. my name lives on in the hearts
of the people I impacted.
Copy !req
387. That's why we're here,
after all.
Copy !req
388. For to live is to be known.
Copy !req
389. To live is to be remembered.
Copy !req
390. What do you suppose I should do
for someone to remember me?
Copy !req
391. You should change their life,
Copy !req
392. even if it's only
in some small way.
Copy !req
393. I would try that
and hope for the best.
Copy !req
394. The scariest part of it all
Copy !req
395. was when Lawine wandered off.
Copy !req
396. I go with purpose,
I don't wander.
Copy !req
397. That was you.
Copy !req
398. Are we thinking

Copy !req
399. What can I say?
Copy !req
400. Mistress Frieren.
Copy !req
401. These sweets are amazing.
Copy !req
402. Your friends have good taste.
Copy !req
403. Glad to see
you're feeling better.
Copy !req
404. Frieren had
her moments, too.
Copy !req
405. We could hardly get her out
of bed on the second morning.
Copy !req
406. Let's not dwell on that one.
Copy !req
407. She just got out
of her bad mood.
Copy !req
408. - Frieren.
- Hm?
Copy !req
409. We may have been
a team in the first test,
Copy !req
410. but we still have two more.
Copy !req
411. Past allies are future enemies.
Copy !req
412. I suppose you're right.
Copy !req
413. - Huh.
- Huh.
Copy !req
414. Huh.
Copy !req
415. What is it?
Copy !req
416. A notice
of the second test.
Copy !req
417. It says here where we go
and when.
Copy !req
418. And look. It also lists
the proctor's name.
Copy !req
419. So, this'll be
a Sense test, huh?
Copy !req
420. There goes our luck.
Copy !req
421. I can't believe we worked
so hard for this to happen.
Copy !req
422. I don't see the issue.
Copy !req
423. Sense has proctored four tests
in the exam's history.
Copy !req
424. Nobody's ever passed
a single one.
Copy !req
425. Oh, this meat is tasty!
Copy !req
426. I could see it in you
from the first blow!
Copy !req
427. The essence of the art of war!
Copy !req
428. The test
you're planning is cruel.
Copy !req
429. That so?
Copy !req
430. Don't forget,
I'm a pacifist, Genau.
Copy !req
431. Much unlike yourself.
