It has been one year since Sir Rio
I'm sure everyone is aware of how much
So on this fine day of
with the kiss of blessing from Lady Dryas
Sir Rio is hereby welcomed as our sworn friend
and Latifa as a resident of our village.
I'm going to continue to
Yes
Y-Yes
Now
Everyone! It's time to feast!

How...

Mashter Rio
Miss Orphia
Oh

It'sh already been a year shince
Orphia
Miss Sara...
Clinging to him like this is just...
Sara
Yes
It's not just a little. I'm certain of it.
Big Sis Orphia! Big Sis Sara! That's no fair!
L-Latifa! I can't breathe!
Big Sister Sara
I know you want to deepen your
but you're causing him problems instead.
Deepen their friendship with me?
That'sh right! I wanna be
We live together
B-But... How can I put this...
Latifa treats us as her older sisters
but it feels like you keep your
And even now
Thank you.
I'm not very good at being social
if you'd let me be better friends
O-Of course! We'd be delighted!
Please
Yay!
Now we can get along even better
Yes.
Well
I'm going to go get more to drink!
What? No
It would be better if we didn't!
I'm gonna go bring shome.
The both of you are getting tipsy. I'll go.
I'll go
She seems to be having fun.
Mistress Ursula...
Yes. She has a lovely smile.
She has become an integral
I'm... thinking I should tell Latifa soon.
So you are going
Yes.
She is sure to miss you.
I see.
I feel it is a little too soon
but perhaps it is the right time.
Tonight
I'm going to investigate the area a little.
Please
What? But...
Here. Just in case.
It's a type of artifact.
Protection
If you swallow this
I-I see.
If anything happens
don't worry about me.
If you head in that direction
Please
It's just about time for you to
And I see you've made your appearance.
I do hope my lure plays his role to his utmost.
What's wrong
You asked me to go on a walk
Sorry.
Let's go back to the plaza!
There's still lots of food and drink left!
Latifa...
What is it?
Do you enjoy living here?
Yes! It's really fun!
Big Sis Sara and the others are here.
And Mistress Ursula and the
And... you're here
I see.
Yup!
Latifa.
After a little while
I'm... going to leave the village.
What?
No.
You know that I was originally
I'm going with you.
I can't take you with me.
Why not?
I'm going somewhere I've never
No! I don't want to be apart from you
Latifa...
I don't want to hear it!
Latifa!
A reaction inside the barrier?
Yes. Lady Dryas noticed it
It seems it isn't simply one or two.
I will go confirm it immediately.
Take warriors with you.
Yes
It seems everyone went
Your faculties of pursuit are impressive
but it seems your intelligence
Thanks to that
Sara
Location?
Two at that spring.
There's a human!
And...
A griffin!
Be careful that we're not the ones
Understood!
Master Reiss—
Demi-humans!
Will you come quietly and do as we say?
What are you doing here at this time of day?
Is that... What kind of egg is that?
Th-This is
Please
Halt!
Go!
Lady Sara
It seems it's unavoidable.
That way is...
He's headed toward the village!
Hey! We're running away! Go faster!
Lady Sara!
It's a flight of wyverns!
Why have wyverns come to a place like this?
Could it be the egg that boy has?
We can't allow him to enter the village!
Orphia! Alma!
We'll handle the black wyvern.
Uzuma and the rest of you
Understood!
Take word to Mistress Ursula and the others!
Understood!
Now
Farewell.
Alma
Understood!
Big Sister Sara
I'll have it fight alongside my Ifritah!
All right.
Hel!
I'm... going to leave the village.
No.
I can't take you with me.
No
A-Are you all right?
What's going on?
An egg?
Quickly
Please
Has something happened?
Oh
Canceled?
A flight of wyverns is approaching.
Wyverns?
It seems like Sara and the others are
but they may soon be upon us.
The forest?
Onii-chan!
Latifa!
No!
Latifa!
Big Sis Alma!
Why are you here?
Ifritah!
Latifa
Big Sis Alma!
You can't beat it! Let's run away!
I can't!
At this rate
The village?
If I can buy some time...
Over here!
This way!
Latifa! Don't!
I'm a part of the village
Latifa!
Come on! I'm over here!
Latifa
We'll switch places on my command!
Right!
Latifa!
Onii-chan!
I'm sorry I took so long
I-It's fine!
I'm the one who's sorry
We can talk later.
Everything's fine now. You can stand down.
He's battling a black wyvern
Onii-chan!
I-Incredible!
He defeated that black wyvern so easily!
It seems the inside of its
Master Rio? And Latifa
That's amazing
No
Single-handedly?
Are there wounded?
Fortunately
I wonder why the other wyverns retreated.
It must be because this
Wyverns are timid by nature. They won't
This is all thanks to Master Rio!
Thank you so much!
I am...
your sworn friend
Onii-chan!
I'm... sorry about last night.
No
There must have been a better
The truth is... I already knew.
I knew you might leave
I was... really scared.
Scared?
Because I've only ever caused
I thought that's why you might leave one day.
I wondered if I was a hindrance to you.
You're not troublesome or a hindrance to me.
You're my little sister
Onii-chan... are you sure?
You really don't mind having
I...
I really want to be your
You're the person who saved me
who treated me so kindly...
It's only that I didn't want to kill anyone.
I didn't want to dirty my hands.
You're wrong!
It's real!
Onii-chan
Thank you.
You know...
If you really hate it that much
No
I'll work hard.
And I'm sure we'll meet again someday.
I'm heading east...
toward the Yagumo region
No.
It's the land my late parents came from.
That's why I want to try going there.
This is the first time you've told me
I guess it is.
There's something I want to tell you
I don't know if you'll believe me
The thing is
I was reincarnated and
I was in a place called Japan before.
I see.
You believe me?
I do. Because I'm the same.
What?
I was a Japanese person
What?
Actually
It's just that
so I thought it better not to tell you.
No. The truth is
I felt like it would raise lingering
I see.
Onii-chan was Japanese
Did those regrets appear?
If I said "no
But I swore that I would be
That's another reason I want
Yes. I'll get stronger
I'll be here waiting for you
Thank you...
Latifa.
Thank you for everything.
I never imagined you would do
Quit talking like we're strangers!
This is from us dwarfs.
The sword is made of mithril
so it can absorb your spirit arts
The armor is made from the hide
Its defensive strength will make you think
Thank you very much.
From the elves
From the beast peoples
With so much
Sir Rio
Is that... a space-time cache?
I couldn't possibly accept
It is proof that you are a sworn friend.
With this
It's fine! Please
Thank you very much.
Go ahead and put your baggage
Storage!
If the unthinkable happens
as your sworn friend
Onii-chan
I'll be back.
Thank you for everything you did for me!
It is we who thank you!
Safe travels.
Take care.
Take care of Latifa... of my little sister.
Leave it to us!
See you later
Then...
Have a good trip!
