00:30I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
01:01This is it. I'm a dead man.
01:13I'm not supposed to go.
01:16Not like this.
01:20I still haven't reached Mithril Class!
01:30But I don't know the way back to Mithril.
01:34If I go to the outside, the way will be clear.
01:39Huh?
01:42What's that?
01:44A dead body?
01:46I don't know if I can get it out.
01:48Huh?
01:51Maybe I can get it out.
01:52Huh? No, no, no, no, no, no. Wait. That's impossible.
02:04This can't be happening!
02:22I want to be myself
02:29I chased after it
02:32And when I realized, I had become an adult
02:39Everyone is just like they think
02:41If you work hard, your dreams will come true
02:43That's a sweet laugh
02:44Even if you desperately aim for the top
02:47The result is that you know everything
02:49You don't know
02:50Someday, I'm sure someone will see it
02:52I'll keep walking today
02:54I'm about to give up, I'm about to break down
02:57But I can see the scenery
03:01Beyond the darkness of despair and suffering
03:09What awaits you at the end of an endless road
03:12Even if it's far, I'll grab it with my hands
03:16The shape of the dream is different from the ideal
03:19I'll just keep chasing it and move forward
03:23The path I'm taking now is different from the ideal
03:27I'll live freely in the world I'm still in
03:30Give me give me give me a chance
03:32Change your world and show your way
03:34Give me give me give me a chance
03:36Change your world and show your way
03:50The Day Starts Early
03:52The day starts early for adventurers
03:54Which has a romanticized air to it
03:57Until you remember that's the case for most poor people
04:00Only nobles, wealthy merchants, and academics can sleep till midday
04:04With their privileged disorderly lives
04:07And yes, I'm aware that may just be my bias talking
04:11I have a scholar friend who sometimes forgets to sleep for days
04:14Because they're so focused on their research
04:17I should check in on them soon
04:19But it's not like I can contribute much to their work
04:22I'm just a lowly bronze class adventurer
04:25Born and raised in a town you can't find on a map
04:28Why would Renfeina know anything about scholarly pursuits?
04:31Okay!
04:34There's one reason adventurers get up early
04:37To be the first in line for the good jobs
04:40The guild is essential for us
04:42It provides those in my profession with suitable tasks based on rank and skills
04:46All kinds are available
04:48They vary from monster extermination, protection, herb and material gathering
04:52Even cleaning the muck out of drains
04:54Morning, Rent
04:56Good morning
04:58Are you heading to the moon's reflection?
05:00Yeah, if there aren't any decent jobs
05:02You're always putting in the hard work
05:04Well, see you later
05:06Same, and good luck
05:08You too
05:17Looks like the labyrinth it is then
05:20Most adventurers belong to a party
05:23But I generally work alone
05:26There are a few reasons for that
05:28But it's mainly because I'm not very skilled
05:31I've been at this for ten years now
05:33And I'm still only bronze, the second lowest rank
05:47I get by though
05:49You can make a living hunting monsters
05:51And selling magic stones and other materials to the guild
05:54Thank you, come again
05:56I've done my best to be thorough and disciplined
06:00I've even got an emergency fund just in case
06:10But in an instant, my entire life changed
06:13All because I decided to throw caution to the wind
06:17When it comes to labyrinths
06:19The deserted moon's reflection has been thoroughly explored
06:22Yet I was able to find something unbelievable
06:36What is this?
06:38A secret passageway?
06:44This must be my day
06:58There's no doubt
07:00This hasn't been explored
07:03What's in here?
07:05Hopefully valuable items or weapons
07:08Actually, all I need to do is report this to the guild
07:11And I'd probably make a killing
07:14I should have stopped there
07:16But instead I charged in
07:18Going deeper and deeper into that suspicious place
07:20With no one watching my back
07:24Because I'm a fool
07:34Face to face with a dragon
07:38The greatest of all monsters
07:41In the flesh
07:43According to legend, they take on many forms
07:45While your average one is enormous
07:47Some are considerably larger
07:49Even though I'd never seen one before
07:52I knew right away what it was
07:55Its sheer presence
07:57The pressure it exerted that left me frozen in place
08:00What else could it be but a dragon?
08:02I never stood a chance
08:05A perpetual bronze adventurer
08:07Against such an exceptional creature
08:12How am I still alive?
08:14I was eaten by a dragon
08:16No, wait
08:18Am I actually alive?
08:23I mean, it doesn't exactly look like I am
08:26I'm an undead
08:28I've become an immortal monster
08:30If I run into a bishop or priest
08:32They could easily destroy me with purification magic
08:34And there's no coming back from that
08:36What I've become
08:38Is a violation of divine providence
08:40And the laws of nature
08:42I shouldn't exist in this world
08:44When I put it that way
08:46It sounds like I am technically dead
08:48But I'm still conscious
08:50And have my memories
08:52I should probably go back to town
08:54No, I can't do that
08:56It's not like I want to die yet
08:58But I'm already dead
09:00So I meant I don't want to be destroyed
09:02Oh no, I'm so confused
09:04An adventurer can't afford to lose his head
09:06There's no point in dwelling on questions
09:08I don't have answers to
09:11Oh no, I'm so confused
09:13An adventurer can't afford to lose his head
09:15There's no point in dwelling on questions
09:17I don't have answers to
09:25The dragon seems to be gone
09:27First things first
09:29I need to leave this area
09:32These labyrinths can be found all around the world
09:34Numerous researchers have tried to explain their mysteries
09:37But no one knows where they come from or how they work
09:41Not only do the mazes come in various sizes
09:43Magical equipment and treasures are hidden inside
09:46Not to mention monsters lurk around every corner
09:49The inhabitants stalking the corridors are mysterious as well
09:54The Labyrinth of the New Moon is more popular
09:56Since there's good money to be had
09:58In a few days, a solo adventurer like me
10:00Might make the journey here
10:02I'll try asking them for advice
10:05Oh, but first of all
10:07I need to figure out how to even talk to them
10:20My body feels heavy
10:22Maybe because I have no muscles
10:24And my physical abilities are significantly worse
10:26I'm weaker than a normal person
10:29But that's expected
10:31After all, I'm a skeleton
10:33While I could have defeated them easily as a human
10:35I need to be careful ne-
10:39I don't have the strength to raise my blade!
10:41Not good!
10:59I'm nothing but bones
11:01It's not like I can expect to use fancy sword techniques
11:05But I have other abilities
11:07All living things draw on their vital energy for strength
11:10What we call their spirit!
11:15Looks like it's working
11:19You and I are the same
11:21Our strength is equal
11:23But I have equipment
11:25And the advantage
11:27If I buff my strength with spirit energy
11:29I can raise my attack power!
11:42Is it still alive?
11:53It feels like I recovered the spirit energy I used
11:56Just like she said
12:00When it comes to monsters
12:02They have a mysterious trait
12:04Given enough time and experience
12:06They're capable of evolving into greater beings
12:10We aren't any exception
12:12Humans can also grow with training
12:15But monsters are on a different level
12:17For example
12:19A skeleton typically remains a skeleton forever
12:22But on rare occasions
12:24They evolve into ghouls
12:26It's called
12:28Existential evolution
12:30Existential evolution?
12:32Yes
12:34It's one of the subjects I'm researching
12:38It's worth giving it a shot
12:40Ghouls are also undead
12:42But they have flesh and are closer to humans
12:45Maybe I could use robes and masks
12:47To hide my appearance and return to town
12:49Alright
12:51Let's make this existential evolution happen!
12:53I'll keep defeating monsters in this labyrinth
12:55Until I'm a ghoul!
12:58To be continued
13:06He didn't come today either
13:08It can't be helped
13:10Looks like I'm having dinner by myself again
13:15And you make fun!
13:19My mobility's mostly been restored
13:24Whatever this light is
13:26Seems like it has the power to heal me
13:29And I'm able to use spirit energy
13:31During every battle thanks to it
13:33Time to start taking on stronger enemies
13:43Slimes are your average weak monster
13:45Similar to skeletons
13:47But don't underestimate them
13:50Against amorphous creatures
13:52Physical attacks are less effective
13:55Magic's a more reliable way to beat them
13:57Unfortunately
13:59I don't have the ability to use it offensively
14:01The best I can do is start fires
14:03For domestic tasks
14:05So I'll have to use physical attacks
14:07There are two ways to do that
14:10Pierce its core
14:12Or break apart the liquid form
14:14Until it's no longer able to regenerate
14:17While I'm lacking skill and strength
14:19Once every day
14:21I can expend my reserves of spirit energy
14:23To defeat them
14:25In a way
14:27They're my greatest enemy
14:29Can't blow this
14:39Huh?
14:41Looks like I got lucky
14:43And my blade managed to strike the core
14:45Next on the list is retrieving the magic stone
14:49The thing to know about slimes
14:51Is that they have such an acid blitz
14:53Once they're dead
14:55No acid remains in their body
14:57In fact
14:59Sticking your hand in the stuff
15:01Makes your skin smooth
15:03If the fluid's transparent
15:05It can be used to make women's cosmetics
15:07Surely there are better ingredients out there
15:09I guess that some ladies will go to any length
15:11To say beautiful
15:13That should be enough
15:15This'll pay for several days at an inn
15:21You be sure to take care now
15:23Sheila
15:25Yes?
15:27That girl that joined
15:29The newbie
15:31She needs a party
15:33Hasn't seen much combat
15:35But she seems alright with a sword
15:37I couldn't find a suitable opening for her
15:39So I was going to ask Rent if he would partner with her
15:41But he hasn't come back since yesterday
15:43Well that doesn't sound like him
15:45He hasn't accepted a long-term job, has he?
15:47No
15:49And nothing that would take him out of Malt, either
15:51That newbie adventurer
15:53I told her if she waited a few days
15:55I'd pair her with a veteran
15:57Who could show her the ropes
15:59But she did seem pressed for money, so
16:01I mentioned the labyrinth of the moon's reflection
16:03She'll be just fine
16:05Even a novice should be able to handle it
16:07If they're decent with a sword
16:09Right
16:11But I warned her to stay alert, regardless
16:13Hmm
16:19Strangely, I don't feel exhausted
16:21Or hungry, for that matter
16:23I suppose that's stating the obvious
16:25After all, I'm undead
16:27Since food would just fall through me
16:29I kept fighting all night
16:31Unfortunately
16:33It seems like existential evolution
16:35Takes longer than I thought
16:37Right after I became a skeleton
16:39My physical abilities were significantly diminished
16:41But I'm mostly back to normal
16:43After defeating those monsters
16:45My spirit energy still works fine
16:47And I can use mana
16:53My divinity isn't affected
16:55Despite being an undead
16:59Better use it on this bread
17:01And not waste it
17:03In addition to curing injuries and illnesses
17:05Divinity has several other uses
17:07In fact, it can purify water
17:09And delay food from spoiling
17:11There
17:13It should last three minutes
17:15There
17:17It should last three more days
17:19I just hope I'll have a body that'll need to eat by that time
17:23No point in worrying about it
17:25I should focus on my existential evolution
17:29Probably best if I play it safe for a while
17:31And steadily defeat monsters
17:35I can beat one, maybe two
17:37Three would be difficult, though
17:39Four, and I'll run
17:41More than five
17:43Well, I...
17:45I doubt I'll encounter groups that large in this labyrinth
17:49But on the off chance I do
17:51I'm royally screwed, and I'd really be dead
17:57I hate being weak
18:01I've been an adventurer for a decade
18:03Two decades if you include my training before that
18:07And somehow, despite my low rank
18:09I'm one of the rare few who can use
18:11Mana, Spirit, and Divine Energy
18:15Things would be different if I could just have one strong power
18:21I know the truth
18:23I'm not cut out for this profession
18:29Normally, people give up on adventuring after a few years
18:33They return to their village to farm
18:35Or find some other job they're better suited for
18:37But I figured I'd reach my goal somehow
18:41Every day
18:43I trained without fail
18:45And even asked an acquaintance to teach me about monsters and magic
18:49I accepted the most minor assignments
18:51And did that for ten long years
18:53In order to achieve my dream
18:57Becoming a Mithril-class adventurer
19:01Higher than both Gold and Platinum class
19:03Not even naturally gifted adventurers easily attain the highest rank
19:07It's reserved for those individuals who have saved entire nations
19:13Mithril-class
19:15I can reach it
19:17That's all I've lived for
19:19Not even becoming a skeleton will stop me
19:25I'm not afraid
19:27I'm not afraid
19:29I'm not afraid
19:31I'm not afraid
19:41Huh?
19:43I'm starting to exceed the strength I had as a human
19:45Oh yeah, I should gather more of this to sell.
20:11Although on the bright side, I've been able to collect plenty of clear residue.
20:14Slimes are pretty gross after they've eaten something, and no one wants that.
20:27What? What's happening?
20:41Oh yeah, I should gather more of this to sell.
21:11Sure, but I have flesh. I'm making major progress.
21:17At the rate I'm going, I might be able to become a high-ranking undead.
21:22Vampires practically look human, so that would be an improvement.
21:26Okay, what can I do with this new body?
21:36Well, I can make noises.
21:40Hi. Hello. How are you?
21:45Good morning to you too.
21:52I'll need lots of practice.
21:54Hello there.
21:57Oh my, my name is Wraith.
22:10I'm really glad that I meet you.
22:15It's been a while.
22:19Nice to meet you.
22:23Please don't get hurt.
22:26No, I want to stay here.
22:29I'll take care of the lambs.
22:33I'll be in your care.
22:36I'll be your soldier too.
22:39Tonight, tonight, tonight
22:44I'll always be inside of you
22:49Baby, keep your fire burning
22:53The days I've built up
22:56Will disappear and become your strength
23:01Even if I don't go like someone else's movie
23:08I'll be able to fly at your speed
23:14If I keep that fire burning
