"their level's really going up..." "That's just what I'd expect to see from the Black Sword Knights" "Akihabara's most macho guys." "this is what happens when I get serious." "Isaac." "You keep making the knights stronger." "Both you and Reserick are irreplaceable to Maihama now." "Lord Iselus." "Isaac?" "Isaac?" "I told you to stop that crap!" "About that lunar communication device you asked me for yesterday..." "It's going to cost that much?" "yes." "Even three years of Akihabara's total budget wouldn't be enough." "Three years..." "I hate to say it getting it to work will be another issue." "All right." "huh?" "isn't it?" "What did you tell everyone at the Round Table?" "That if we could make contact with the moon we might find a hint to getting home." "I told them that I'm not sure going home is possible." "I doubt they'll approve funds now..." "Wh-What?" "you get old man wrinkles right here." "No wrinkles." "Right... 1)}Isaac and Iselus" "Isaac and Iselus." "right?" "A lot is still uncertain so he said he didn't want us telling anyone else." "I don't know to react to suddenly hearing that I might be able to go home." "I..." "I want to see my mom and dad but I want to stay with Nyanta and everyone else." "I don't want to leave you guys..." "Serara..." "That's right." "We all got to be such good friends." "Minori?" "I..." "I don't really know." "I'm going home." "isn't it?" "I didn't make any effort to come here." "What?" "Effort?" "right?" "Even so... and I want to stay." "I want to work hard myself and make my own place to belong." "Tohya..." "I respect that way of thinking." "Rudy... returning to it is natural." "I've been expecting to say goodbye at some point." "I can respect Tohya's desire to choose on his own rather than it being a chance event brought on by outside forces." "Rudy..." "But... if you go home right?" "but it isn't that simple for me." "I wonder." "Doesn't this town seem to be turning into Akihabara lately?" "Deadlines Are Life {\cH8966CD}But I Refuse {\cHC99067}I Can't Go On" "Moe" "I guess it means adventurers are influencing People of the Land in several ways." "{\cHA870D5\fs22}Cosplay House yep." "Is that what it is?" "It is!" "The People of the Land are absorbing the adventurers' culture and developing their own." "My grandfather said that's important." "How long are you going to keep following us?" "like my sister." "Please teach me all sorts of things!" "Isaac." "Do whatever you want." "He really likes you." "This isn't my style." "What's the problem?" "This brings Akihabara and Maihama even closer." "I'm told." "What do you mean?" "You know..." "That lunar communication attempt they were talking about at the Round Table." "The one that might give us a hint about how to go home?" "I'm sure that would change Yamato's power balance." "I don't care." "All that complicated crap irritates me." "What?" "You don't want to go home?" "I try to think about that stuff after it actually happens." "I understand." "Jeez." "not useful." "you should have stopped him." "aren't you?" "Listen... buy this one." "I can't master an expensive sword like this." "I'm not worthy of it." "Let's go." "too." "He knows his own capabilities." "but maybe I was wrong." "Is that what it is?" "Is something wrong?" "No." "It's nothing." "Sir Isaac?" "Pretty well." "The knights' levels are rising pretty fast." "I'm glad to hear it." "we never know what will happen." "old man?" "It's about Iselus." "We will soon be holding a large festival to celebrate his birthday." "I will announce him as the Cowen family heir." "Heir?" "Him?" "But I thought you had a son." "Feinel married into the family." "but the people wouldn't accept that." "They want the heir to have Cowen blood." "My daughter Salaria and Feinel have three children." "The eldest daughter Liseltia the youngest child." "Liseltia renounced her right to the throne by getting married." "Which leaves Lenessia and Iselus." "That's right." "You have the princess." "I had never truly seen anything." "I realized my own foolishness." "I think she is best suited for another job." "huh?" "ruling a country is a man's job." "I believe." "isn't it?" "no one can be a ruler unless he understands adventurers and they understand him." "Sir Isaac... he is still a child." "While you are in Maihama will you teach him what we cannot?" "That's easy for him to say... let me know." "I'll tell my grandfather without making a big deal of it." "Thank you." "we might be able to bring stuff in from the port more efficiently... aren't they?" "I'm not done yet." "I thought he was just some rich kid." "though." "Lord Iselus?" "after all." "as well." "Does that have anything to do with the fact that Minami's planning something?" "That's unusually sharp..." "Isaac." "I'm kidding." "Minami is working with Westelande." "If they really try to take control of Eastal war will be unavoidable." "What do you mean?" "it seems the Westelande Dynasty ruled all of Yamato." "But there was a war that engulfed Yamato." "After the war the dynasty was ultimately destroyed." "And the land split into its current state 1)}Holy Empire Westelande" "Eastal." "Westelande Eastal" "Ever since then" "Westelande's been saying they're the true heirs to the dynasty." "Trying to profit on the name of a destroyed country?" "Talk about annoying." "Those "annoying" things will occur whenever many people gather." "with us adventurers involved" "I'd bet the situation now is even more complicated." "You know a lot of stuff." "A merchant survives on information." "And so..." "This is a present for you." "What is it?" "It's true." "Both the adventurers and People of the Land are a pain." "I've always ignored that annoying stuff." "but... they aren't that bad." "Hey." "Use this one." "and this one is lighter." "you'll be a better swordsman." "though." "right?" "You can have it." "Isaac." "give it back." "That was a joke!" "I'm really happy." "Thank you!" "hey..." "Aren't we going to the princess's place today?" "She has her brother's birthday party so she says she's returning to Maihama." "Rieze is with her." "too." "A new unit?" "Yes!" "A galactic idol unit!" "And its name is..." "Tetnessia!" "1)\an8\cHFCFCFC}Tetnessia it'll be a surefire hit since we're both so popular already!" "I want to do something memorable before I go home." "And if we do a first and final concert simultaneously it'll be twice as good." "it'll be a big hit for sure!" "we'll have to tell Sia." "Yeah." "It will be hard to tell her." "Rieze?" "Sorry to make you do this when you're tired." "right?" "What are you talking about?" "I'm fine." "this would be a man's job." "Honestly..." "When is that monster in glasses coming back?" "From an adventurer's perspective this nobles' party must seem to make no sense whatsoever." "I wouldn't say that." "We have banquets and stuff." "And some people have big birthday parties." "I see... and he listens." "He understands many things." "But he is still only nine." "Part of me thinks it's too early to make him bear such a heavy burden." "What are you talking about?" "haven't you?" "Until your hair turned white." "but he's a man." "A man's job is to take responsibility." "The weight of your responsibility is equal to the power you possess." "And it means you'll have more people to help you." "I hope so." "He'll be fine." "he'll be fine." "Princess Lenessia..." "She's as beautiful as ever." "everyone." "Grandfather." "Sister!" "Iselus." "Have you been well?" "Yes." "like you do!" "if you think it's that easy to become friends with the adventurers you're very wrong." "Some of them are monsters and villains." "You need to be especially careful around those with glasses." "Sister." "He doesn't have glasses." "I'm glad." "The announcement will be made soon." "Sister." "of course." "this is fruit juice from my land." "Try it." "Isaac?" "aren't you supposed to be a little more subtle about assassinations?" "Wh-What are you talking about?" "Is there a problem?" "The Roderic lab's special ambush-warning earring is as good as they said." "though." "What's this?" "Iselus." "adventurer!" "1)\an7}Smoke Bomb Effect /Smoke Bomb Bad Statuses:" "Movement speed drop Attack speed drop Damage over time" "We're doing this for Yamato's peace!" "you handle these guys!" "Isaac?" "Don't worry." "My legs are just a little numb." "1)\an8}Assassin /Stealth" "They're pretty strong for People of the Land." "So those are the—" "damn it!" "Sword of Pain Black!" "A bind?" "No..." "You can't take your eyes off me now." "I won't let you lay a finger on Iselus!" "I'll take you all on!" "Don't talk about peace when you're trying to kill a kid!" "Morons!" "Isaac." "That was pretty cool." "Your debuffs are still in effect." "I'll heal you." "I'm fine." "I was careful not to inhale a lot of it." "their levels aren't normal at all." "Maybe they're the People of the Land that Minami is leveling..." "You saved me." "your information comes in handy." "right?" "How did you hear about assassins from Westelande?" "A merchant survives on information." "I thought you were more of a coward." "I thought you were more of a musclehead." "Iselus it's okay now." "Yeah." "Don't worry." "I'm going to stay in this world for a while." "Isaac." "I see." "Let me know if anything happens." "Karashin." "I knew it." "Our presence is throwing off the balance of the People of the Land's society." "Maybe we have to go home." "Shiroe." "Why are you half-hiding?" "My investigations in Susukino have finally reached an end." "Though it came later than expected..." "I'm sorry for the delay." "Is everyone doing well?" "Yes..." "They said to tell you hello." "What did you find out about the transport gates?" "As I investigated various matters" "I found that the fairy rings are related to the moon's phases." "There's also a legend that there are Alvish ruins on the moon." "It's possible that the administrator's beacon is deciding the destination coordinates." "the moon's got..." "We need to make contact with it." "Contact?" "Yes." "We're looking for a way to return the adventurers to their old world." "we must communicate with the moon." "But we don't seem to be able to create the communication equipment." "It's difficult." "though." "I'm aware." "The remains of the Shibuya TV station the one communications facility in Yamato." "right?" "there was a slight signal from it." "Do you suppose it may still be functioning?" "A signal?" "villain!" "What's going on?" "Everyone's collapsing!" "What's this about?" "What do you mean?" "Explain—" "Shiroe!" "Trouble!" "The city of Akihabara..." "The people fall asleep and will not wake." "a black shadow covers the moon." "filled with monsters." "Is someone preventing them from returning to the real world?" "Shiroe begins the battle." "But there is an uncertainty within him." "Next time:" "Sleep of the Eternal Moth." "Sleep of the Eternal Moth" "I have friends to run with me."
