1
00:00:03,631 --> 00:00:05,925
It all started in a small village.
2
00:00:07,218 --> 00:00:11,681
One day, a rumble in the ground
caused a rift under the cemetery,
3
00:00:11,764 --> 00:00:14,517
from which a single man appeared.
4
00:00:15,142 --> 00:00:19,271
He claimed to be the king
of a once prosperous kingdom.
5
00:00:20,481 --> 00:00:22,817
He states that the once glorious land
6
00:00:22,900 --> 00:00:25,778
continues to be held captive
deep underground
7
00:00:25,861 --> 00:00:28,531
by the hands of a mad magician.
8
00:00:29,532 --> 00:00:31,450
To whomever defeats this magician,
9
00:00:31,534 --> 00:00:33,703
he offers everything his kingdom has.
10
00:00:34,787 --> 00:00:38,624
After he imparts these words,
he turns to dust and vanishes.
11
00:00:44,046 --> 00:00:47,925
DELICIOUS IN DUNGEON
12
00:00:58,644 --> 00:01:00,146
Keep it up, everyone.
13
00:01:00,229 --> 00:01:02,064
We've only got a bit left
after this dragon.
14
00:01:02,898 --> 00:01:04,066
Let's go!
15
00:01:04,775 --> 00:01:05,818
We're completely prepared.
16
00:01:06,485 --> 00:01:08,070
Nothing can get in our way.
17
00:01:13,409 --> 00:01:14,660
That's not true.
18
00:01:16,328 --> 00:01:17,413
We're hungry.
19
00:01:19,749 --> 00:01:22,168
Everyone's movements lack
their usual edge.
20
00:01:23,419 --> 00:01:27,006
We lost a day roaming around
due to a misprint on our map.
21
00:01:27,089 --> 00:01:30,301
We walked into a trap
and lost three days' worth of food.
22
00:01:35,514 --> 00:01:39,685
It's bothersome, but we should turn back
for a bit after defeating the dragon.
23
00:01:39,769 --> 00:01:40,895
Laios!
24
00:01:41,479 --> 00:01:42,646
What happened, Falin?
25
00:01:42,730 --> 00:01:44,899
Did they cast a confusion spell on you?
26
00:01:47,234 --> 00:01:48,402
Wh...
27
00:01:50,863 --> 00:01:51,947
What?
28
00:01:53,407 --> 00:01:54,408
You're kidding me.
29
00:01:55,242 --> 00:01:58,162
We're all dead?
We're so deep in the dungeon.
30
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,166
R-Run.
31
00:02:14,011 --> 00:02:15,054
Laios.
32
00:02:19,391 --> 00:02:20,518
You're awake.
33
00:02:21,352 --> 00:02:25,106
{\an8}It looks like a magic spell
got us out of the dungeon,
34
00:02:25,898 --> 00:02:28,067
but Falin's the only one we can't find.
35
00:02:31,487 --> 00:02:32,905
She was eaten.
36
00:02:32,988 --> 00:02:33,906
What?
37
00:02:34,657 --> 00:02:37,118
Her magic didn't work
from inside the dragon's stomach.
38
00:02:38,119 --> 00:02:39,578
That can't be.
39
00:02:39,662 --> 00:02:41,288
She's probably still in the dungeon.
40
00:02:41,872 --> 00:02:42,873
Let's go now to save her.
41
00:02:43,374 --> 00:02:44,875
Hold on.
42
00:02:45,751 --> 00:02:50,756
Honestly, it looks like almost everything
we had was left behind in the dungeon.
43
00:02:51,549 --> 00:02:52,842
So we're basically cleaned out.
44
00:02:53,342 --> 00:02:54,176
What?
45
00:02:54,260 --> 00:02:56,053
And what's worse...
46
00:02:56,136 --> 00:02:57,179
Chilchuck?
47
00:02:57,763 --> 00:03:00,182
We just lost two of our party members.
48
00:03:00,266 --> 00:03:01,267
RESIGNATION LETTER
49
00:03:01,350 --> 00:03:02,184
What's that?
50
00:03:02,768 --> 00:03:06,272
Apparently another party's
been courting them for a while now.
51
00:03:06,355 --> 00:03:07,690
What?
52
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,693
Exploring dungeons costs money
53
00:03:10,776 --> 00:03:14,697
for hiring companions,
buying equipment, and getting food too.
54
00:03:15,281 --> 00:03:19,159
We can sell our current equipment
and secure what funds we have now
55
00:03:19,243 --> 00:03:21,537
to switch to cheaper equipment.
56
00:03:21,620 --> 00:03:26,208
As well as to pay for food, medicine,
necessities, and new companions.
57
00:03:26,292 --> 00:03:28,711
-Do we have enough?
-Not in the slightest.
58
00:03:29,378 --> 00:03:32,840
{\an8}My little sister will get digested
while we get everything ready.
59
00:03:33,424 --> 00:03:36,177
There's that person who once revived
someone from shreds, right?
60
00:03:36,260 --> 00:03:38,596
Have they ever revived someone from poop?
61
00:03:39,221 --> 00:03:41,432
Never heard of that.
62
00:03:44,685 --> 00:03:46,770
I know we're short on cash,
63
00:03:46,854 --> 00:03:48,564
but how about some food first?
64
00:03:48,647 --> 00:03:52,067
After all, our empty stomachs
may have been why we failed.
65
00:03:52,943 --> 00:03:54,945
What should we eat?
66
00:03:55,029 --> 00:03:58,449
For cheap food, we could go to
the bistro on the main street,
67
00:03:58,532 --> 00:04:00,868
or there's The Laughing Wolf
for bigger meals.
68
00:04:00,951 --> 00:04:03,871
Oh, but that pub's hard to pass up too!
69
00:04:03,954 --> 00:04:06,999
Their soup dumplings are to die for.
70
00:04:07,082 --> 00:04:08,626
-No.
-What?
71
00:04:09,210 --> 00:04:11,295
We need to get back to the dungeon.
72
00:04:11,378 --> 00:04:12,713
But as we are now...
73
00:04:13,297 --> 00:04:14,506
I have an idea.
74
00:04:15,341 --> 00:04:17,760
-You two will leave the party.
-What?
75
00:04:17,843 --> 00:04:21,889
Then, we'll sell your equipment
and I'll enter the dungeon alone.
76
00:04:21,972 --> 00:04:23,307
That's insane.
77
00:04:23,390 --> 00:04:24,391
Do you have a death wish?
78
00:04:24,475 --> 00:04:28,187
This way, we won't have to compromise
on using quality equipment,
79
00:04:28,270 --> 00:04:31,649
and I can get to the lowest floor
while avoiding monsters if I'm alone.
80
00:04:32,233 --> 00:04:33,651
It's not impossible.
81
00:04:33,734 --> 00:04:35,903
It's all my fault in the first place.
82
00:04:35,986 --> 00:04:38,697
I can't put you two in danger too.
83
00:04:41,700 --> 00:04:43,494
I'm going too, no matter what.
84
00:04:43,577 --> 00:04:45,788
I'll do anything to save Falin.
85
00:04:45,871 --> 00:04:47,998
Falin is dear to me too.
86
00:04:49,333 --> 00:04:51,585
I won't drag you down.
87
00:04:51,669 --> 00:04:54,505
You know how strong my magic is.
88
00:04:54,588 --> 00:04:57,508
Don't forget about my job, too.
89
00:04:57,591 --> 00:05:01,136
You'll need me to open doors
and disable traps.
90
00:05:01,220 --> 00:05:02,888
You guys...
91
00:05:05,724 --> 00:05:09,144
You really mean to go with me, right?
92
00:05:09,228 --> 00:05:11,146
For better or for worse?
93
00:05:12,481 --> 00:05:13,732
Y-Yeah.
94
00:05:15,359 --> 00:05:17,903
We'll secure food from within the dungeon.
95
00:05:17,987 --> 00:05:18,904
-What?!
-What?!
96
00:05:18,988 --> 00:05:21,699
There are more than enough
monsters in the dungeon.
97
00:05:21,782 --> 00:05:24,910
That means an entire ecosystem
exists inside.
98
00:05:25,536 --> 00:05:28,956
Carnivorous monsters will have
herbivorous monsters to feed on,
99
00:05:29,039 --> 00:05:31,166
and the herbivorous monsters eat plants
100
00:05:31,250 --> 00:05:33,919
that find nutrients
from water, sunlight, and dirt.
101
00:05:34,003 --> 00:05:38,173
In other words,
humans can eat in the dungeon too.
102
00:05:41,635 --> 00:05:42,803
So, what you're saying
103
00:05:43,387 --> 00:05:44,805
is that we'll eat monsters?
104
00:05:45,389 --> 00:05:46,765
We'll eat monsters too.
105
00:05:46,849 --> 00:05:49,059
Think about our adventures until now.
106
00:05:49,143 --> 00:05:52,563
I'm sure there were
a lot of tasty-looking things.
107
00:05:53,522 --> 00:05:55,941
No, there's no way I'm eating those.
108
00:05:56,025 --> 00:05:59,319
There are quite a bit of people
who hunt monsters for food.
109
00:05:59,403 --> 00:06:02,614
You mean the criminals
who can't come back on land?
110
00:06:02,698 --> 00:06:06,076
Even they get hospitalized
all the time from food poisoning.
111
00:06:06,785 --> 00:06:09,329
You said you'd do anything to save Falin.
112
00:06:09,413 --> 00:06:11,081
I never said I'd eat monsters.
113
00:06:11,165 --> 00:06:14,168
{\an8}There's no time nor money.
What other choice do we have?
114
00:06:14,251 --> 00:06:16,295
{\an8}But there's no point
if we eat something weird
115
00:06:16,378 --> 00:06:18,672
{\an8}and get stopped by food poisoning.
116
00:06:19,798 --> 00:06:21,717
Run away!
117
00:06:23,010 --> 00:06:25,095
Save us!
118
00:06:27,723 --> 00:06:29,641
Looks like dungeon newbies.
119
00:06:30,559 --> 00:06:34,146
They're not cut out for this
if they can't handle a monster like this.
120
00:06:34,813 --> 00:06:37,149
Hey, Laios?
121
00:06:37,733 --> 00:06:39,902
Let's make lunch out of this.
122
00:06:39,985 --> 00:06:41,779
I refuse!
123
00:06:41,862 --> 00:06:44,531
No, absolutely not!
124
00:06:45,157 --> 00:06:47,659
Isn't going straight to mushrooms
a bit risky?
125
00:06:47,743 --> 00:06:52,539
The dungeon food guide
says it's food suited for beginners.
126
00:06:52,623 --> 00:06:55,375
It's meaty and has a mild taste.
127
00:06:55,459 --> 00:06:58,003
-What is this book?
-It looks pretty worn down.
128
00:06:59,004 --> 00:07:01,298
Let's go find more space
to start a fire.
129
00:07:01,799 --> 00:07:03,842
Wish we had one or two
more ingredients, though.
130
00:07:06,136 --> 00:07:09,139
Those steps are from a Huge Scorpion!
131
00:07:09,681 --> 00:07:11,558
Could it be that he...
132
00:07:11,642 --> 00:07:14,645
Despite being a dungeon,
many people come and go,
133
00:07:14,728 --> 00:07:17,147
making it a bustling place
for adventurers and merchants.
134
00:07:17,648 --> 00:07:19,233
{\an8}A former cemetery,
135
00:07:19,316 --> 00:07:22,319
{\an8}it was once a sacred place
where villagers slept in peace.
136
00:07:22,403 --> 00:07:25,697
But once it was connected to
the dungeon six years ago,
137
00:07:25,781 --> 00:07:28,784
it became the liveliest place
in the village.
138
00:07:29,410 --> 00:07:32,955
They say monsters emerge
from the depths of the dungeon.
139
00:07:33,038 --> 00:07:37,084
It is unclear whether a forbidden spell
transformed terrestrial creatures
140
00:07:37,167 --> 00:07:40,462
or if they were summoned
from the world of monsters.
141
00:07:40,546 --> 00:07:43,382
But they all have an odd appearance
142
00:07:43,465 --> 00:07:46,301
and attack humans as if
they have something to protect.
143
00:07:47,052 --> 00:07:50,097
But that served as the only proof we have
144
00:07:50,180 --> 00:07:53,475
that the cursed,
formerly prosperous capital truly exists.
145
00:07:55,352 --> 00:07:57,020
Don't kill it like a crayfish.
146
00:07:57,104 --> 00:08:00,566
This is how you catch it,
so it's easier than a crayfish.
147
00:08:00,649 --> 00:08:01,733
Hey.
148
00:08:02,317 --> 00:08:07,030
You've been looking for a chance
to eat monsters for a while, haven't you?
149
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:12,161
But that doesn't change the fact
that I want to save my sister.
150
00:08:12,786 --> 00:08:13,620
Yeah, okay.
151
00:08:13,704 --> 00:08:17,249
I've never told you this,
but I love monsters.
152
00:08:17,332 --> 00:08:20,627
from their appearance and cries
to their ecology.
153
00:08:20,711 --> 00:08:23,046
I soon wanted to know their taste.
154
00:08:23,130 --> 00:08:24,214
He's a psychopath.
155
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,223
Shouldn't we do this
where there are fewer people?
156
00:08:33,307 --> 00:08:36,518
It's hard to go back and forth for water.
157
00:08:37,603 --> 00:08:39,938
So, how do we eat these?
158
00:08:40,022 --> 00:08:42,024
Let's try an orthodox approach.
159
00:08:44,026 --> 00:08:45,277
What's wrong?
160
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,780
It's easy to cut from above,
but there's resistance from the side.
161
00:08:48,864 --> 00:08:50,991
When we fight against
mushroom-type monsters,
162
00:08:51,074 --> 00:08:53,869
slashing diagonally or horizontally
might be less effective.
163
00:08:54,453 --> 00:08:55,787
That's good to know.
164
00:08:55,871 --> 00:08:58,749
It looks like food if you slice it up.
165
00:08:58,832 --> 00:08:59,666
I don't see it.
166
00:09:02,252 --> 00:09:03,795
Hey, hold on!
167
00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:07,341
We're eating it as is?
What about the venom?
168
00:09:07,424 --> 00:09:09,968
This scorpion's venom is safe to eat.
169
00:09:11,762 --> 00:09:12,596
Really?
170
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,182
That's what the book said,
so I want to try it.
171
00:09:16,767 --> 00:09:18,435
Blech.
172
00:09:19,561 --> 00:09:20,646
Told you.
173
00:09:20,729 --> 00:09:21,813
Hold it right there.
174
00:09:23,190 --> 00:09:24,858
Scorpion Hot Pot, eh?
175
00:09:24,942 --> 00:09:27,819
But that method leaves much to be desired.
176
00:09:27,903 --> 00:09:29,029
Who are you?
177
00:09:29,112 --> 00:09:31,490
When you eat this monster,
178
00:09:31,573 --> 00:09:35,827
you must cut off
the pincers, head, and legs.
179
00:09:36,495 --> 00:09:38,330
The tail will upset your stomach.
180
00:09:38,413 --> 00:09:41,291
The book said it'd be fine.
181
00:09:41,375 --> 00:09:43,335
Or rather it just tastes bad.
182
00:09:43,418 --> 00:09:46,088
Also, cut up the body as well.
183
00:09:46,171 --> 00:09:50,342
It'll cook through more easily,
and the juices create a delicious broth.
184
00:09:50,425 --> 00:09:52,344
It's easier to eat too.
185
00:09:52,427 --> 00:09:54,846
And take out the internal organs.
186
00:09:54,930 --> 00:09:56,848
They're bitter and have an awful texture.
187
00:09:56,932 --> 00:09:58,392
As for the Walking Mushroom,
188
00:09:58,475 --> 00:10:01,436
throw out the bottom
and three centimeters from the surface.
189
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,480
The feet are tasty, so keep those.
190
00:10:03,564 --> 00:10:05,357
The feet are tasty?
191
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,569
Yeah, they have
a nice, unique smell, right?
192
00:10:08,652 --> 00:10:10,237
The smell of the feet, huh?
193
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,489
This pot is too small.
194
00:10:13,073 --> 00:10:14,449
Let's use mine.
195
00:10:15,450 --> 00:10:16,994
You sure are prepared.
196
00:10:17,661 --> 00:10:20,831
It feels like it's missing something.
197
00:10:26,587 --> 00:10:27,546
Here.
198
00:10:27,629 --> 00:10:29,464
Wait, there's no way I'll eat that.
199
00:10:29,548 --> 00:10:32,259
-Marcille?
-Not in a million years.
200
00:10:32,342 --> 00:10:33,885
This is a cemetery, you know.
201
00:10:33,969 --> 00:10:35,887
Even if I'm okay with monsters,
202
00:10:35,971 --> 00:10:38,140
plants with roots are out of the question.
203
00:10:38,223 --> 00:10:40,601
Doesn't it look
good enough with just this?
204
00:10:40,684 --> 00:10:42,811
-Marcille!
-And who the hell are you?
205
00:10:42,894 --> 00:10:44,438
-Look up!
-What?
206
00:10:50,444 --> 00:10:51,361
A Slime!
207
00:10:51,445 --> 00:10:53,864
Dammit, it's covering my face.
208
00:10:54,448 --> 00:10:56,867
Oh no, I can't cast any spells.
209
00:10:56,950 --> 00:11:00,871
Thinking back,
my first death was to a Slime.
210
00:11:07,085 --> 00:11:08,962
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
211
00:11:09,046 --> 00:11:10,589
It got in my nose, though.
212
00:11:10,672 --> 00:11:12,007
Blow it out.
213
00:11:12,591 --> 00:11:15,218
You got rid of a Slime with just a knife?
214
00:11:15,302 --> 00:11:17,763
It's simple if you know its composition.
215
00:11:18,347 --> 00:11:20,057
They may look amorphous,
216
00:11:20,140 --> 00:11:22,851
but their composition is actually
more structured than humans.
217
00:11:23,852 --> 00:11:26,730
This is the inside of a Slime.
218
00:11:26,813 --> 00:11:29,358
Compared to humans,
the stomach is flipped
219
00:11:29,441 --> 00:11:33,028
and covers its internal organs and head
with digestive fluids.
220
00:11:33,111 --> 00:11:36,907
It senses the breathing of its prey
and springs into action.
221
00:11:36,990 --> 00:11:41,661
So you're an easier target
if you shout in a loud voice.
222
00:11:41,745 --> 00:11:44,206
It's not edible like this,
223
00:11:44,289 --> 00:11:48,001
but you can add citrus juice,
and wash it thoroughly in hot water.
224
00:11:48,085 --> 00:11:49,711
Then, wipe off the moisture
225
00:11:49,795 --> 00:11:53,423
or rub it in salt and dry it in the sun.
226
00:11:53,507 --> 00:11:55,425
This makes a delicious delicacy.
227
00:11:55,509 --> 00:11:58,970
If possible, it's best to
let it fast for two weeks.
228
00:11:59,054 --> 00:12:01,431
Drying it takes time too.
229
00:12:01,515 --> 00:12:04,935
This is a portable Slime drying net
that I made myself.
230
00:12:05,519 --> 00:12:06,937
Sandwich it like this
231
00:12:07,020 --> 00:12:09,481
and it dries as you walk around.
232
00:12:10,023 --> 00:12:12,150
It takes time until it's ready,
233
00:12:13,026 --> 00:12:14,569
but here's the final product.
234
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,072
Let's add this for today.
235
00:12:17,656 --> 00:12:20,450
-But isn't it a delicacy?
-It's fine.
236
00:12:21,034 --> 00:12:25,664
I've researched monster food
in this dungeon for over ten years.
237
00:12:26,164 --> 00:12:30,210
Nothing makes me happier than to hear
someone is interested in Monster cuisine.
238
00:12:30,293 --> 00:12:31,586
Ten years?
239
00:12:31,670 --> 00:12:34,214
Was the dungeon here that long?
240
00:12:34,881 --> 00:12:36,466
Well, sit tight.
241
00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:56,445
{\an8}It's ready.
242
00:12:56,528 --> 00:12:58,238
{\an8}HUGE SCORPION
AND WALKING MUSHROOM HOT POT
243
00:13:01,950 --> 00:13:04,578
Boiled Huge Scorpions turn red, huh?
244
00:13:04,661 --> 00:13:07,038
It feels so different seeing it in person.
245
00:13:08,081 --> 00:13:10,125
It smells kind of delicious.
246
00:13:10,208 --> 00:13:12,961
The meat contracts when cooked,
247
00:13:13,044 --> 00:13:14,754
so it comes apart easily.
248
00:13:15,630 --> 00:13:16,756
You're right.
249
00:13:19,926 --> 00:13:20,760
This is delicious!
250
00:13:21,470 --> 00:13:22,888
Isn't it?
251
00:13:22,971 --> 00:13:25,265
It tastes so different
based on how you cook it.
252
00:13:25,348 --> 00:13:27,309
Right?
253
00:13:27,392 --> 00:13:29,269
It's so good! I'm shocked!
254
00:13:29,352 --> 00:13:31,271
Right?!
255
00:13:34,357 --> 00:13:36,526
Give me some too.
256
00:13:38,111 --> 00:13:39,654
What is this?
257
00:13:39,738 --> 00:13:41,990
Dried Slime innards.
258
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,286
It's good!
259
00:13:46,369 --> 00:13:49,414
So, this is how you eat Slimes?
260
00:13:49,498 --> 00:13:52,334
It also tastes good soaked in fruit juice.
261
00:13:52,417 --> 00:13:55,378
And these tree roots
are so nice and fluffy.
262
00:13:55,462 --> 00:13:57,214
They're not technically roots.
263
00:13:57,297 --> 00:14:00,550
They're tree trunks
that grow upside down in the dungeon.
264
00:14:00,634 --> 00:14:03,053
This algae is so soft and tasty.
265
00:14:03,136 --> 00:14:05,764
Does this grow in the dungeon too?
266
00:14:05,847 --> 00:14:09,184
That's just normal algae
that grows in humid places.
267
00:14:09,267 --> 00:14:13,188
I can't believe all this is from
the dungeon we've been walking through.
268
00:14:17,776 --> 00:14:20,070
I'm stuffed.
269
00:14:20,153 --> 00:14:21,780
We still haven't heard your name.
270
00:14:22,781 --> 00:14:24,366
My name is Senshi.
271
00:14:24,449 --> 00:14:26,785
It means "researcher" in Dwarvish.
272
00:14:27,786 --> 00:14:28,787
I'm Laios.
273
00:14:28,870 --> 00:14:31,706
That's Marcille the magic-user
and Chilchuck the picklock.
274
00:14:32,290 --> 00:14:34,793
Looks like you're on a mission.
275
00:14:34,876 --> 00:14:36,336
Yes, that's right.
276
00:14:37,045 --> 00:14:40,549
{\an8}One of our companions got eaten
by a monster in the lower levels.
277
00:14:41,341 --> 00:14:43,218
{\an8}We want to save her
before she gets digested.
278
00:14:44,302 --> 00:14:47,097
By a monster? What kind?
279
00:14:47,180 --> 00:14:48,932
A dragon with deep-red scales.
280
00:14:49,808 --> 00:14:52,060
Deep-red scales?
281
00:14:52,602 --> 00:14:54,104
The Red Dragon?
282
00:14:54,688 --> 00:14:56,815
To maintain their large bodies,
283
00:14:56,898 --> 00:14:58,733
dragons spend most of their days sleeping.
284
00:14:58,817 --> 00:15:01,862
They also digest
much more slowly than other monsters.
285
00:15:02,946 --> 00:15:04,114
I hope so.
286
00:15:04,698 --> 00:15:05,615
Please.
287
00:15:05,699 --> 00:15:08,743
Would you allow me to accompany you?
288
00:15:08,827 --> 00:15:10,620
You're more than welcome to.
289
00:15:10,704 --> 00:15:13,123
It'd be a huge help to us as well.
290
00:15:13,206 --> 00:15:15,625
Really?
291
00:15:16,334 --> 00:15:18,378
-Thank you.
-Likewise.
292
00:15:18,461 --> 00:15:22,382
I've dreamt of cooking
the Red Dragon for many years.
293
00:15:22,966 --> 00:15:24,426
The Red Dragon.
294
00:15:24,509 --> 00:15:28,638
Maybe I should go for the traditional
steak, or perhaps a burger.
295
00:15:28,722 --> 00:15:30,891
Shabu-shabu is great too.
296
00:15:30,974 --> 00:15:34,394
No, if I have eggs,
a Dragon and Egg bowl would be good.
297
00:15:37,856 --> 00:15:40,150
Is it okay to eat that?
298
00:15:41,484 --> 00:15:45,447
It was on everyone's mind,
but no one said a word.
299
00:15:49,326 --> 00:15:50,911
Second basement floor.
300
00:15:51,494 --> 00:15:54,414
Unlike the cemetery
on the first basement floor,
301
00:15:54,497 --> 00:15:57,417
an abnormal view spreads out before them.
302
00:15:58,001 --> 00:15:59,252
According to academics,
303
00:15:59,336 --> 00:16:03,924
this is the spire of the Golden Castle,
which is located deep underground.
304
00:16:04,007 --> 00:16:06,635
I've always wondered about this,
305
00:16:06,718 --> 00:16:09,930
but how do those trees
not go above ground at this height?
306
00:16:10,013 --> 00:16:12,515
Well, a curse made this dungeon.
307
00:16:14,267 --> 00:16:16,436
Marcille, are you okay?
308
00:16:16,519 --> 00:16:19,397
I tripped on a gap in the bridge.
309
00:16:19,481 --> 00:16:20,941
We've walked quite a way.
310
00:16:21,024 --> 00:16:22,525
You must be tired.
311
00:16:23,068 --> 00:16:25,612
Let's find a campsite
and stop early for today.
312
00:16:27,072 --> 00:16:30,575
We spent a night
in a hollow tree here before, didn't we?
313
00:16:30,659 --> 00:16:31,701
Yeah, we did.
314
00:16:32,285 --> 00:16:35,205
I burned myself trying to make pork soup.
315
00:16:36,289 --> 00:16:37,123
Soup...
316
00:16:37,207 --> 00:16:38,833
Are you hungry?
317
00:16:38,917 --> 00:16:41,962
I have some scorpion broth
from lunch today.
318
00:16:42,045 --> 00:16:43,213
I don't want it.
319
00:16:43,296 --> 00:16:44,881
Well, then.
320
00:16:44,965 --> 00:16:46,967
Let's go hunt a monster for dinner.
321
00:16:47,050 --> 00:16:48,969
Jeez.
322
00:16:49,636 --> 00:16:52,097
-What're you in the mood for?
-What?
323
00:16:52,180 --> 00:16:55,225
I'll do my best to match your request.
324
00:16:55,308 --> 00:16:57,102
You say that, but...
325
00:16:59,354 --> 00:17:01,147
We're eating monsters, right?
326
00:17:02,482 --> 00:17:06,111
Ugh, I'm fine with anything
as long as it's edible.
327
00:17:06,695 --> 00:17:08,989
What kind of monsters live around here?
328
00:17:09,656 --> 00:17:10,991
Let's see...
329
00:17:11,574 --> 00:17:13,493
Big Bats and Giant Rats.
330
00:17:13,576 --> 00:17:15,620
I don't want anything unsanitary.
331
00:17:15,704 --> 00:17:16,621
Forest Goblins.
332
00:17:16,705 --> 00:17:18,248
Demi-humans are a no-go.
333
00:17:18,331 --> 00:17:19,374
Living Armor.
334
00:17:19,457 --> 00:17:21,418
Metal?
335
00:17:21,501 --> 00:17:25,255
Isn't there anything more normal,
like birds or tree fruits?
336
00:17:25,338 --> 00:17:26,881
There's always that one person
337
00:17:26,965 --> 00:17:30,927
who shoots down every idea
after agreeing to eat anything.
338
00:17:31,011 --> 00:17:33,263
I don't think I'm asking for much.
339
00:17:33,930 --> 00:17:36,516
There are normal monsters,
but those don't attack humans,
340
00:17:36,599 --> 00:17:38,268
so they'll require more preparation.
341
00:17:38,935 --> 00:17:41,980
There's no such thing as a free lunch.
342
00:17:42,063 --> 00:17:44,024
Sorry, that's true.
343
00:17:44,107 --> 00:17:45,150
But you know,
344
00:17:45,233 --> 00:17:48,611
we might run into a monster
holding a flesh-eating lunch.
345
00:17:48,695 --> 00:17:51,031
Let's try to enjoy this!
346
00:17:51,114 --> 00:17:53,408
Not very optimistic about this.
347
00:17:53,491 --> 00:17:57,412
Well, there are lots of fruits
during this season.
348
00:17:57,996 --> 00:17:59,414
Really?
349
00:18:00,373 --> 00:18:01,416
Yeah.
350
00:18:04,502 --> 00:18:07,422
See? I knew it'd be tree fruit
from Man-eating Plants.
351
00:18:07,505 --> 00:18:09,466
Marcille, that's incorrect.
352
00:18:09,549 --> 00:18:11,426
Man-eating Plants
are just the common name.
353
00:18:11,509 --> 00:18:14,929
That flower, for example, is a Baraselia.
354
00:18:15,597 --> 00:18:17,432
It mainly grows on monster trails
355
00:18:17,515 --> 00:18:19,559
shooting out a mucus
reminiscent of spider webs.
356
00:18:19,642 --> 00:18:22,187
When a creature touches the mucus,
it reflexively pulls them in.
357
00:18:24,272 --> 00:18:26,691
It wraps around things that move,
but it doesn't digest them.
358
00:18:27,233 --> 00:18:29,652
It makes them into compost.
359
00:18:29,736 --> 00:18:32,697
But it sometimes
uses humans for nutrients, right?
360
00:18:32,781 --> 00:18:35,408
The vegetables you usually eat
361
00:18:35,492 --> 00:18:39,079
can be traced back to
dead remains and animal dung.
362
00:18:39,162 --> 00:18:41,706
I can't fault that logic, but...
363
00:18:41,790 --> 00:18:43,083
{\an8}It's fine.
364
00:18:43,166 --> 00:18:44,918
{\an8}It's still only the second basement floor.
365
00:18:45,001 --> 00:18:48,630
{\an8}Someone would notice
if a corpse rolled by here.
366
00:18:48,713 --> 00:18:52,175
{\an8}They have people to retrieve corpses,
367
00:18:52,258 --> 00:18:55,178
{\an8}and no one would get eaten
by a monster in a place like this.
368
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,347
You think so?
369
00:18:57,430 --> 00:18:59,682
I don't think we can pluck them in secret.
370
00:19:00,767 --> 00:19:02,602
We'll have to fight.
371
00:19:04,187 --> 00:19:05,563
Move over.
372
00:19:06,564 --> 00:19:08,900
I'll get rid of them in one shot.
373
00:19:10,026 --> 00:19:12,403
Sperae Yeptum Rufermus.
374
00:19:12,946 --> 00:19:15,365
Alamandras Proju.
375
00:19:15,448 --> 00:19:17,492
Nexant Aslam.
376
00:19:17,575 --> 00:19:19,119
Stop, you moron!
377
00:19:19,202 --> 00:19:20,787
{\an8}Why?
378
00:19:24,999 --> 00:19:27,669
Do you want the fruit
to get hit by your magic too?
379
00:19:27,752 --> 00:19:31,172
Only take as much as you'll eat.
This rule is absolute.
380
00:19:31,256 --> 00:19:33,550
This isn't the time for that!
381
00:19:34,134 --> 00:19:36,427
No, let go of me!
382
00:19:41,766 --> 00:19:43,643
They can't digest people?
383
00:19:43,726 --> 00:19:45,562
But they're totally eating them!
384
00:19:45,645 --> 00:19:48,648
What? Some of them
can digest things, though.
385
00:19:48,731 --> 00:19:50,191
Depends on the plant type.
386
00:19:50,775 --> 00:19:52,902
The one that has a hold of you
387
00:19:52,986 --> 00:19:55,196
is a parasite type
that plants seeds inside your skin.
388
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,073
That's the worst kind!
389
00:19:58,158 --> 00:19:59,701
Try to stay still, Marcille.
390
00:20:00,785 --> 00:20:03,788
Plant-based monsters
basically have several limbs.
391
00:20:03,872 --> 00:20:06,082
It'll take forever to fight them
one at a time.
392
00:20:06,583 --> 00:20:08,501
For swords, there's only
one sure-fire spot.
393
00:20:09,294 --> 00:20:10,461
The root.
394
00:20:14,299 --> 00:20:15,842
Ouch...
395
00:20:16,467 --> 00:20:17,677
Are you okay?
396
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,846
Yeah, thanks Laios.
397
00:20:20,597 --> 00:20:22,223
-How was it?
-What?
398
00:20:22,891 --> 00:20:26,144
This is Shadowtail, a plant-based parasite
that buries seeds
399
00:20:26,227 --> 00:20:27,729
inside the skin of living creatures.
400
00:20:27,812 --> 00:20:31,858
Unlike the Baraselia,
which is strong enough to break bones,
401
00:20:31,941 --> 00:20:34,819
the Shadowtail needs to capture
its prey without killing them.
402
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,238
It uses a delicate balance,
403
00:20:37,322 --> 00:20:41,242
immobilizing its prey
without making it uncomfortable.
404
00:20:41,326 --> 00:20:44,746
I feel like it'd feel really good.
How did you feel?
405
00:20:47,332 --> 00:20:48,875
I made her mad again.
406
00:20:48,958 --> 00:20:51,753
Even I thought you were a bit much.
407
00:21:02,972 --> 00:21:04,891
First, steam it lightly.
408
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,894
Cut around the stem in a circle.
409
00:21:08,603 --> 00:21:12,232
Twist it a bit
and pull to get the seeds out.
410
00:21:12,732 --> 00:21:14,651
-Wow.
-Peel the skin off,
411
00:21:14,734 --> 00:21:17,153
beat the skin to make it soft,
412
00:21:18,154 --> 00:21:19,906
and cover the pan with it.
413
00:21:20,490 --> 00:21:25,245
Grind up the unripe fruit,
adding Slime and some scorpion broth,
414
00:21:25,328 --> 00:21:27,413
mixing until it thickens.
415
00:21:27,497 --> 00:21:30,625
Once it gets smooth,
add the rest of the scorpion broth
416
00:21:30,708 --> 00:21:33,336
and chunks of tree fruit.
417
00:21:33,419 --> 00:21:36,422
Mix it a bit
and pour it into the frying pan.
418
00:21:36,506 --> 00:21:38,299
Cook it a bit.
419
00:21:38,383 --> 00:21:40,677
I want to see if we can grow it
on the surface.
420
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,178
Of course, we can't.
421
00:21:42,262 --> 00:21:43,763
No!
422
00:21:44,806 --> 00:21:48,685
When it starts bubbling,
add the rest of the fruit.
423
00:21:50,353 --> 00:21:51,187
All right.
424
00:21:51,854 --> 00:21:53,064
It's done.
425
00:21:53,147 --> 00:21:55,191
MAN-EATING PLANTS FRUIT TART
426
00:21:55,275 --> 00:21:56,609
A tart?
427
00:21:56,693 --> 00:21:58,194
At least, it looks like it.
428
00:21:58,778 --> 00:22:01,239
The crust is just a non-stick coating.
You can leave it.
429
00:22:02,448 --> 00:22:05,410
It's salt-flavored.
That's not what I expected.
430
00:22:05,493 --> 00:22:06,953
Yeah, it's good.
431
00:22:07,578 --> 00:22:10,915
Try it, Marcille. You'll probably like it.
432
00:22:11,708 --> 00:22:14,627
None of the plants that ate people
are in it, right?
433
00:22:15,211 --> 00:22:19,048
No, if we used
the gelatin from those plants,
434
00:22:19,132 --> 00:22:21,676
it would've turned out even better.
435
00:22:21,759 --> 00:22:23,720
The Slime didn't solidify well.
436
00:22:30,226 --> 00:22:32,228
This is delicious.
437
00:22:32,311 --> 00:22:35,064
The compost-type plants' fruit
is fresh and sweet.
438
00:22:35,148 --> 00:22:37,233
The digestion-type plants'
is more compact and rich.
439
00:22:37,817 --> 00:22:39,694
But I wonder if that's okay.
440
00:22:39,777 --> 00:22:42,739
Doesn't that mean
they get eaten by other animals?
441
00:22:42,822 --> 00:22:45,658
All this fruit they make gets taken away.
442
00:22:46,325 --> 00:22:48,411
That's how a carnivorous plant works.
443
00:22:48,494 --> 00:22:51,414
They use them to capture prey
for nourishment.
444
00:22:51,497 --> 00:22:52,623
Oh, I see.
445
00:22:53,708 --> 00:22:56,377
I wonder if this sweetness
is one of their tricks then.
446
00:22:56,961 --> 00:22:58,463
Now I get it.
447
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,968
I'm so happy you're getting interested.
448
00:23:04,052 --> 00:23:05,136
Stop that!
449
00:23:12,977 --> 00:23:15,354
What'll we do with that corpse?
450
00:23:15,438 --> 00:23:17,648
We don't have time
to go back to town.
451
00:23:18,232 --> 00:23:20,401
Want me to revive it with magic?
452
00:23:20,902 --> 00:23:23,613
No, there's a chance it won't work.
453
00:23:24,197 --> 00:23:27,950
Maybe someone will take it
if we leave it in the open.
454
00:23:28,034 --> 00:23:29,160
Yeah.
455
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,038
Let's make it visible.
456
00:23:33,873 --> 00:23:36,167
I've seen this at execution sites.
457
00:23:39,670 --> 00:23:42,507
Marcille had a nightmare that night.
458
00:23:44,175 --> 00:23:45,593
Dungeon food.
459
00:23:45,676 --> 00:23:47,512
Eat or be eaten.
460
00:23:48,513 --> 00:23:50,348
There is no hierarchy.
461
00:23:50,431 --> 00:23:53,768
Eating is a privilege for those who live.
462
00:23:54,644 --> 00:23:55,937
Dungeon food.
463
00:23:56,020 --> 00:23:58,439
Oh, dungeon food.
464
00:25:22,565 --> 00:25:26,861
DELICIOUS IN DUNGEON
465
00:25:26,944 --> 00:25:30,948
