1. Huh. It's grown in already.
Copy !req
2. I'm growing up at a steady pace.
Copy !req
3. Good.
Copy !req
4. I didn't like studying English in my old life,
Copy !req
5. but figuring out new languages is surprisingly fun.
Copy !req
6. Good, but you need to work on closing distance!
Copy !req
7. Right!
Copy !req
8. It's been two years since she turned ten.
Copy !req
9. Eris reached Advanced rank in Sword God Style in no time.
Copy !req
10. I can feel our gap in talent.
Copy !req
11. I think it's bigger than before.
Copy !req
12. Really, what is that thing?
Copy !req
13. It's a mystery.
Copy !req
14. If you are afraid
Copy !req
15. Then cross the mountains
Copy !req
16. Then cross the mountains
Copy !req
17. Your wanting, thirsty heart
Copy !req
18. Your wanting, thirsty heart
Copy !req
19. Will soak in rich waters
Copy !req
20. And find healing
Copy !req
21. Standing in a place that is but a fantasy to all others
Copy !req
22. If you keep tenderness and a yearning in your heart,
Copy !req
23. You will obtain love
Copy !req
24. Hurry up! Rudeus is gonna spot us!
Copy !req
25. I can't wait to see his reaction!
He might even cry for joy!
Copy !req
26. This is Master Rudeus we're talking about. He might not show it.
Copy !req
27. But he'll like it, won't he?
Copy !req
28. Of course he will.
Copy !req
29. I'm sure being from a branch house is difficult for him.
Copy !req
30. What are they talking about?
Copy !req
31. Are people gossiping about me?
Copy !req
32. In that case, I'm confident.
Copy !req
33. Confident the maids will have more work once I'm done sobbing into my pillow.
Copy !req
34. We have to get it ready for Rudeus's tenth birthday!
Copy !req
35. If only he'd been born into a different family.
Copy !req
36. Apparently, the Boreas family can't be too public about me.
Copy !req
37. How do you do, Master Rudeus?
Copy !req
38. Hello.
Copy !req
39. I only learned this recently, but Paul's full name is Paul Notos Greyrat.
Copy !req
40. The Notos are one of the four main Greyrat families.
Copy !req
41. Their head is Paul's brother.
Copy !req
42. But apparently, he's even scummier than Paul,
Copy !req
43. so there's a covert movement to replace him.
Copy !req
44. I sure don't want to replace anyone,
Copy !req
45. but a member of the Notos bloodline being under Boreas protection could invite unwelcome misunderstandings.
Copy !req
46. So I can't have a big party like Eris did.
Copy !req
47. They must feel bad about that.
Copy !req
48. It looks like they're planning a private tenth birthday party for me.
Copy !req
49. And I'm supposed to be shedding tears of joy?
Copy !req
50. I'd better practice my crying.
Copy !req
51. But man...
Copy !req
52. I've been in this world for almost ten years now.
Copy !req
53. Everyone seems busy.
Copy !req
54. I-I guess so.
Copy !req
55. Still, you learned three languages in two years?
Copy !req
56. You never cease to surprise me.
Copy !req
57. I figured out Beast-God thanks to you, Ghislaine.
Copy !req
58. Studying is hungry work, huh?
Copy !req
59. Let's go grab a snack.
Copy !req
60. W-Wait a minute, Rudeus.
Copy !req
61. C-Could we talk a little more?
Copy !req
62. Ah-ha.
Copy !req
63. Today's the day, isn't it?
Copy !req
64. All right.
Copy !req
65. This is a perfect opportunity.
Copy !req
66. I have something to show you.
Copy !req
67. Is this me?
Copy !req
68. It's pretty well made.
Copy !req
69. It's missing my tail.
Copy !req
70. I don't quite know how it works.
Copy !req
71. I see.
Copy !req
72. It looks like she'll do everything she can to keep me here.
Copy !req
73. Would you mind showing me the base of your tail?
Copy !req
74. Now, how will you get out of this, Ghislaine?
Copy !req
75. What, is that all?
Copy !req
76. That's easy.
Copy !req
77. Zero hesitation!
Copy !req
78. Wow! That's our Ghislaine!
Copy !req
79. I-I'm no match for her!
Copy !req
80. M-May I touch it?
Copy !req
81. Yes, of course.
Copy !req
82. Huh? It's hard!
Copy !req
83. Hang on. Is this really a butt?
Copy !req
84. W-Whoa! I always wanted muscle like this.
Copy !req
85. Excuse me, Master Rudeus.
Copy !req
86. Dinner is re—
Copy !req
87. Master Rudeus!
Copy !req
88. Rudeus!
Copy !req
89. Happy tenth birthday!
Copy !req
90. Wh-What?
Copy !req
91. Rudeus,
Copy !req
92. happy birthday!
Copy !req
93. Oh, yeah. I'm ten years old today.
Copy !req
94. S-Sorry.
Copy !req
95. I-It's just that... for the first time...
Copy !req
96. Since I got here,
Copy !req
97. I worried I might not be welcome.
Copy !req
98. I-I never thought... you'd throw a party for me.
Copy !req
99. T-To arms!
Copy !req
100. It's war with the Notos!
Copy !req
101. I'll murder Pilemon and put Rudeus in charge!
Copy !req
102. F-Father! Restrain yourself!
Copy !req
103. Philip! Don't you dare stop me!
Copy !req
104. You fool!
Copy !req
105. Let go of me! Let go!
Copy !req
106. W-Was my acting too good?
Copy !req
107. F-Forget about Grandfather.
Copy !req
108. I've got a surprise for you today, Rudeus!
Copy !req
109. What is it?
Copy !req
110. Take a guess!
Copy !req
111. Are Father and the others coming?
Copy !req
112. Huh? Uh, well...
Copy !req
113. We did invite your family,
Copy !req
114. but monsters have been acting up, and they couldn't make it.
Copy !req
115. I see. That's a shame.
Copy !req
116. Uh, umm...
Copy !req
117. Listen, Rudeus...
Copy !req
118. You see...
Copy !req
119. Huh? Oh no.
Copy !req
120. This isn't the mood I wanted.
Copy !req
121. Rudeus! You're one of our children now!
Copy !req
122. Huh? I thought she hated me.
Copy !req
123. I'll adopt you.
Copy !req
124. No! Marry Eris!
Copy !req
125. M-Mother?
Copy !req
126. Is my Rudeus not good enough for you, Eris?
Copy !req
127. Rudeus is only ten!
Copy !req
128. Age has nothing to do with it!
Copy !req
129. You need to be more feminine and...
Copy !req
130. What are you doing?
Copy !req
131. Unhand me! I must save that child!
Copy !req
132. So, what is it?
Copy !req
133. The surprise, I mean.
Copy !req
134. R-Right.
Copy !req
135. Alphonse! Give it to him!
Copy !req
136. At once.
Copy !req
137. For you, sir.
Copy !req
138. A staff?
Copy !req
139. For your sake, Master Rudeus, we gathered the finest materials from around the world
Copy !req
140. and had this fashioned by the Asura Kingdom's foremost staff-maker.
Copy !req
141. Its name is
Copy !req
142. Aqua Heartia.
Copy !req
143. I can tell at a glance: This staff cost a fortune.
Copy !req
144. Even if its name is kind of lame.
Copy !req
145. Take it!
Copy !req
146. You're a great mage, so it's weird that you don't have a staff!
Copy !req
147. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
148. It's such a valuable gift.
Copy !req
149. The price doesn't matter!
Copy !req
150. Now, let the party begin!
Copy !req
151. Rudeus...
Copy !req
152. Happy birthday...
Copy !req
153. Eris had two brothers, one older and one younger.
Copy !req
154. My brother in the capital took them right after birth.
Copy !req
155. He took them?
Copy !req
156. I lost a succession dispute.
Copy !req
157. All men of Boreas blood are raised in the household of the head of the family.
Copy !req
158. That's our tradition.
Copy !req
159. But Hilda couldn't come to terms with that.
Copy !req
160. That's only natural. Her own children were taken from her.
Copy !req
161. She hated you.
Copy !req
162. Her own sons can't be here,
Copy !req
163. so why is someone else's walking around like he owns the place?
Copy !req
164. Don't think badly of her.
Copy !req
165. I don't intend to.
Copy !req
166. Well?
Copy !req
167. Would you really marry Eris and take over the Boreas family?
Copy !req
168. What do you expect from a ten-year-old?
Copy !req
169. You don't need to lift a finger. I'll handle the coup.
Copy !req
170. If you want, I'll leave Eris in your bed tonight, hands tied.
Copy !req
171. Take over the Boreas family? Is he being serious?
Copy !req
172. Please. I want no part of power struggles.
Copy !req
173. I'm just going to treat this as idle chitchat over wine.
Copy !req
174. Is that so? What a shame.
Copy !req
175. Well then, I should get to bed.
Copy !req
176. Yes. Good night.
Copy !req
177. Good night.
Copy !req
178. Good night, Master Rudeus.
Copy !req
179. Good night.
Copy !req
180. If I'd taken Philip's deal, I could have made my own harem of personal maids.
Copy !req
181. Ah! What a wasted opportunity!
Copy !req
182. W-W-Welcome home.
Copy !req
183. I'm back.
Copy !req
184. What's wrong? I thought you went to bed.
Copy !req
185. I-I thought you'd get lonely, so I decided to sleep here tonight!
Copy !req
186. Did Philip put her up to this?
Copy !req
187. Still, now I look at her, she's quite...
Copy !req
188. Rudeus.
Copy !req
189. My first time could be a haughty, tsundere loli's first time. My first first time!
Copy !req
190. S-Stop.
Copy !req
191. N-No, I can't!
Copy !req
192. I can't touch her!
Copy !req
193. This is exactly what Philip wants.
Copy !req
194. I-I'm feeling lonely today, so I might try something dirty, you know?
Copy !req
195. A-As long as it's just a little,
Copy !req
196. th-that's fine.
Copy !req
197. Huh?
Copy !req
198. It's what Philip wants? Who cares?
Copy !req
199. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Copy !req
200. I should be happy to accept a little risk.
Copy !req
201. You're trembling.
Copy !req
202. Y-You're imagining it!
Copy !req
203. Her hair is silky smooth.
Copy !req
204. Eris trains day in and day out.
Copy !req
205. Her hair is normally messier.
Copy !req
206. You're cute, Eris.
Copy !req
207. Where did that come from?
Copy !req
208. I'm going to touch you.
Copy !req
209. Is she actually okay with this?
Copy !req
210. She is, right?
Copy !req
211. I can do it? I'm good to go?
Copy !req
212. O-Okay!
Copy !req
213. Here goes!
Copy !req
214. N—
Copy !req
215. No!
Copy !req
216. I said, "just a little"!
Copy !req
217. Not down—
Copy !req
218. Rudeus, you jerk!
Copy !req
219. What was I thinking?
Copy !req
220. I completely forgot myself.
Copy !req
221. Did I think I understood the heart of a maiden after playing all those dating sims?
Copy !req
222. Virgins gonna virgin, I guess.
Copy !req
223. Maybe Eris has been so earnest lately
Copy !req
224. because she was worried I might end up lonely on my birthday.
Copy !req
225. I'll apologize.
Copy !req
226. I-I'm sorry!
Copy !req
227. Th-This is a special day, so I'll make an exception and forgive you!
Copy !req
228. Sh-She forgave me!
Copy !req
229. But it's still too soon for th-that sort of thing.
Copy !req
230. Five years!
Copy !req
231. In another five years, you'll be a proper adult!
Copy !req
232. And then...
Copy !req
233. Until then, control yourself!
Copy !req
234. A-As you desire.
Copy !req
235. W-Well then, I'm going to bed now!
Copy !req
236. Bye, Rudeus. Good night!
Copy !req
237. See you tomorrow!
Copy !req
238. Thank God!
Copy !req
239. Thank God it's my birthday.
Copy !req
240. Thank God it's a special day.
Copy !req
241. Thank God I didn't do anything worse.
Copy !req
242. And...
Copy !req
243. Yes!
Copy !req
244. It's settled! I got a promise straight from her mouth!
Copy !req
245. Okay. No more indulgences until then.
Copy !req
246. Five years. I'll be 15.
Copy !req
247. It's a long time, but I can wait.
Copy !req
248. I can do it!
Copy !req
249. I'll become so hardened that no sexy scene can faze me!
Copy !req
250. Hmm?
Copy !req
251. Wait, five years?
Copy !req
252. S-Sylphie!
Copy !req
253. Damn it. What's going on?
Copy !req
254. Where are they coming from?
Copy !req
255. Seems like monsters aren't just acting up here.
Copy !req
256. Similar incidents are being reported all over Fittoa.
Copy !req
257. I wanted to go to my son's tenth birthday party.
Copy !req
258. I hope Rudeus is doing all right.
Copy !req
259. Hello.
Copy !req
260. Oh, hello, Sylphie.
Copy !req
261. Come on, Norn. Say hello.
Copy !req
262. Hello, Norn.
Copy !req
263. Aisha, make sure you wipe the corners, too.
Copy !req
264. Okay!
Copy !req
265. Hello, Lilia.
Copy !req
266. Hello.
Copy !req
267. Please deliver this.
Copy !req
268. What a lovely pendant.
Copy !req
269. I tried to base it on one of my dad's treasures.
Copy !req
270. You can count on me. I'll make sure it reaches him.
Copy !req
271. Have you decided what you want to do for Rudy, Lilia?
Copy !req
272. Yes. I'm going to send him this.
Copy !req
273. What is it?
Copy !req
274. Something that Master Rudeus treasured dearly.
Copy !req
275. Really?
Copy !req
276. Big sis!
Copy !req
277. Aisha!
Copy !req
278. Yay!
Copy !req
279. You're such a good girl, cleaning every day.
Copy !req
280. I'm so glad Sylphie managed to cheer up.
Copy !req
281. The way she acted out after Master Rudeus left for Roa was incredible.
Copy !req
282. I can't believe some of the things Rudy taught her.
Copy !req
283. But I hear she stopped being bullied as a result,
Copy !req
284. so I'm glad he did.
Copy !req
285. With her hair,
Copy !req
286. she only needs a red gem on her forehead to look just like a Sperd.
Copy !req
287. What's a Sperd?
Copy !req
288. The Sperd are the scariest demons in the whole world.
Copy !req
289. If you meet one,
Copy !req
290. they'll eat you up!
Copy !req
291. Oh!
Copy !req
292. I'm sorry. Don't cry. Now, now.
Copy !req
293. I'm home.
Copy !req
294. Welcome home, dear.
Copy !req
295. Welcome home.
Copy !req
296. What's the matter?
Copy !req
297. There, there.
Copy !req
298. Monsters again?
Copy !req
299. Yeah. I don't know what's gotten into them.
Copy !req
300. It's never been this bad.
Copy !req
301. What's that cloud?
Copy !req
302. Roxy, I don't care about studying.
Copy !req
303. Just take your clothes off.
Copy !req
304. What is that?
Copy !req
305. Isn't the Asura Kingdom in that direction?
Copy !req
306. Could it be... Rudeus?
Copy !req
307. Mana is gathering?
Copy !req
308. What's gone wrong, and where?
Copy !req
309. Oh, well. I'll find out when I get there.
Copy !req
310. Oh, that's an absurd amount of mana.
Copy !req
311. Whose spell is this?
Copy !req
312. What? We can't see them.
Copy !req
313. They must be shy. What a nuisance.
Copy !req
314. In that case, We'll go meet them face to face!
Copy !req
315. We are the Great Emperor of the Demon World,
Copy !req
316. Kishirika Kishirisu!
Copy !req
317. Follow Us, Our people!
Copy !req
318. This mana resembles the light of summoning.
Copy !req
319. Could someone be seeking to undo the seal on the Demon-God Laplace?
Copy !req
320. Almanfi!
Copy !req
321. Present.
Copy !req
322. Investigate the source of that mana.
Copy !req
323. Slay any suspicious persons on sight.
Copy !req
324. As you wish.
Copy !req
325. We've come a long way.
Copy !req
326. We can see your strongest spell out here, right?
Copy !req
327. Ta-dah!
Copy !req
328. Wow. I can do all that with so little mana?
Copy !req
329. H-How is it?
Copy !req
330. It'll be hard to fine-tune, but it's incredible.
Copy !req
331. Really? Good!
Copy !req
332. Now, the moment you've been waiting for: Rudeus Greyrat's mightiest spell.
Copy !req
333. Cumulonimbus!
Copy !req
334. Gather, mana!
Copy !req
335. Grand spirit of water and imperial prince of lightning who...
Copy !req
336. Huh?
Copy !req
337. What's that? Is it your spell?
Copy !req
338. No. That's not me.
Copy !req
339. What incredible mana.
Copy !req
340. You can tell?
Copy !req
341. Should we return to Roa?
Copy !req
342. Yes.
Copy !req
343. We should get away from—
Copy !req
344. Get down!
Copy !req
345. Huh?
Copy !req
346. What?
Copy !req
347. Who...
Copy !req
348. Who are you?
Copy !req
349. I am Almanfi the Radiant.
Copy !req
350. By order of Lord Perugius, I have come to slay the source of this disturbance.
Copy !req
351. Perugius?
Copy !req
352. Rudeus! Take Lady Eris and fall back!
Copy !req
353. Step aside, woman.
Copy !req
354. If I slay that boy, the disturbance may cease.
Copy !req
355. I'm the Sword King Ghislaine Dedoldia.
Copy !req
356. We have nothing to do with that. Leave!
Copy !req
357. You are a Sword King?
Copy !req
358. I swear it by my teacher, the Sword God Gal Farion,
Copy !req
359. and the honor of Doldia!
Copy !req
360. Very well.
Copy !req
361. If what you say is false, Lord Perugius will judge you later.
Copy !req
362. No apology for attacking us without warning?
Copy !req
363. Blame yourself for skulking around here, of all places.
Copy !req
364. What the hell is going on? I don't understand.
Copy !req
365. Calm down.
Copy !req
366. First, the sky changed, then a man suddenly appeared.
Copy !req
367. He says he works for a legendary hero who's in history books.
Copy !req
368. So I've got a bona-fide celebrity appearing out of nowhere and attacking me.
Copy !req
369. Hey, what's going on?
Copy !req
370. It seems like he thinks I did this to the sky.
Copy !req
371. He's wrong, of course, but...
Copy !req
372. P-Please, wait! Tell us what—
Copy !req
373. Huh?
Copy !req
374. Lady Eris! Rudeus!
Copy !req
375. Eris!
Copy !req
376. Eris!
Copy !req
