"Funeral Ceremony"

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation

Keep it down.

Get out, you worthless bum!

Shit.

What the hell did I do to deserve this?

That doesn't mean you can...

Wa... Wa...

Watch...

Watch out!

I was making figures with earth magic, partly for training.

Guess I ran out of MP.

My magic power has grown a lot, but I've still got a long way to go.

Back to work!

That aside...

They're really going at it. I'm hoping for a little sister.

I'm sick of little brothers.

Why don't I try saying something to them today?

"Mommy, daddy,"

what are you doing naked?"

Their excuses will be great.

Roxy's a growing girl.

Even I have the heart to pretend I didn't see anything.

Just kidding.

Man, I'm glad I saw that.

It's been six months since Roxy got here.

She's a good teacher. Her classes are interesting and fun.

Thanks to her, I can use up to intermediate magic no problem.

So, now I'm doing night classes with Roxy.

Oh, just because they're at night doesn't mean we're having sexy times.

Magic supposedly originated

in the distant past, when a certain race spoke with spirits and used wind and earth

to defend themselves from external threats.

Modern magic is the result of humans imitating that magic

and formalizing it during their long war with demonkind.

Magic has its history, too, huh?

Naturally.

I guess it's no use pretending to be a kid.

It's a tough life.

Still, I'm surprised.

This world has spirits and demons in it, too, huh?

Of course it does.

Oh, I'm a demon, too, by the way.

Wow! Are you really?

Yes.

Didn't you notice how surprised Paul and Zenith were to see me?

Because you're so tiny, right, miss?

I am not tiny.

They were surprised to see my hair color.

Why?

Haven't you even heard of a terrifying race of demons called the Superd?

No.

Are they scary?

They are.

Four or five centuries ago,

there was a big war between humans and demons called the Laplace War.

In that war, the Superd went on a rampage.

They slaughtered friend and foe alike without regard for women or children.

That earned them the hatred of every race.

After the war ended, I'm told they were driven from the Demon Continent.

That shows how dangerous they are.

I was often told about them as a child.

"If you stay up late, the Superd will come and gobble you up."

So, this world has things like that, too.

Anyway, pay attention:

Never go near anyone

with emerald-green hair and what looks like a red gem on their forehead!

What will happen if I do?

They might kill your whole family.

I'll be careful.

My hair can look like that shade of green in the wrong light.

Your hair is pretty, miss.

Thank you.

But you should save things like that to say to a girl you like some day.

I like you, miss.

I see.

If you still feel the same way ten years from now,

say it to me again.

--I see the nice-guy skills I honed on dating sims aren't totally useless.

--Thank you. --I see the nice-guy skills I honed on dating sims aren't totally useless.

--You're welcome. Good night. --I see the nice-guy skills I honed on dating sims aren't totally useless.

Even embarrassing lines that would've sounded corny in my old life

are passionate and unique fuses of love in this world.

Okay, even I don't know what that means.

The Superd will gobble you up.

Okay.

It's been about a year since Roxy got here.

My magic lessons are going smoothly.

My steady practice must have paid off,

because I never feel myself running out of magic power anymore.

As for swordsmanship...

Step in with a woosh! Then...

...slash!

That's basically it. You got that?

Step in with a woosh, and then...

Like this?

You idiot!

That's stepping in with a hop, and then, wham!

It's whoosh, then slash!

Well, I'm still only four, and my body's not conditioned.

I've got a long way to go. I'll work at it.

Hey! Wait!

What are you doing over there?

Oh, nothing.

My hometown was in a place not even a blade of grass would grow,

so I can't really describe how this scenery makes me feel.

I really am enjoying myself, Miss!

I hope every day keeps going like this!

Look there.

You can see mountains in the distance.

The Red Dragon Mountains, right?

That's right. You're studying hard.

Far to the north of here,

beyond those mountains, is a country called Ranoa.

What's it like?

In winter, it's very cold and covered in deep snow.

The snow piles up this high.

That's amazing. I'd love to see it.

Ranoa University of Magic is the best school of magic in the world.

It offers advanced, up-to-date lectures.

School. Not my favorite word.

At Magic University,

social status and pride don't matter.

It takes in students of all races and diligently pursues magical research.

If you want to keep walking the path of magic, Rudy,

I recommend you go to Ranoa.

I'd have to leave the house before I could...

Nothing.

I don't need to go that place.

You're the only master I need, Miss Roxy.

Don't call me your master.

Huh?

I'm sure you'll easily surpass me.

You wouldn't want to call someone worse than you "master."

I really wouldn't mind.

You'll understand sooner or later.

It's been a year and a half since Roxy got here.

This country has no custom of celebrating birthdays every year.

There!

But apparently, they do have a custom

of throwing a big party for every fifth birthday.

--At ages five, ten, and 15.

--Here. --At ages five, ten, and 15.

--Here. --You become an adult at 15, so it's easy to understand.

--Well? --You become an adult at 15, so it's easy to understand.

--Happy fifth birthday, Rudy! --I wish you a very happy birthday, Master Rudeus.

Thank you very much.

How long has it been since anyone celebrated my birthday?

Ever since I became a recluse, it's been less special than citizens' holidays.

I'd forgotten this feeling.

It's surprisingly nice.

Happy birthday.

This is for you.

Thank you very much, Father.

Ahem. Well...

You may still be too young for that sword,

but a man has to carry a sword inside his heart.

You have to be prepared to defend those who are dear to you.

You'll have a wife and kids of your own someday.

It will be your duty to protect them.

You can't get full of yourself just because you know a little magic.

Magic is bad in close combat and can't keep up with fast-paced battles.

Swordsmanship has the advantage there.

If you master--

Enough!

Happy birthday!

Here. Rudy, you like books, so...

Thank you very much, Mother!

It's just what I wanted!

Oh, what a good boy you are!

Here, Rudy.

That's a Magic Stone.

It acts to amplify magic power, so it should be useful.

It's really pretty.

Students who master beginner magic

are customarily given wands,

but you could already use it, so it slipped my mind.

My apologies.

No, thank you very much.

I'll take good care of it, Master.

You've learned four types of advanced attack magic at your age.

Feel free to act a little more conceited.

No, it's because you taught me well, Master.

Be that as it may, there's now very little left

that I'm able to teach you.

Huh?

Rudy,

I'll hold your graduation exam tomorrow.

Graduation?

As soon as I look outside, I remember--

remember that day.

Limp dick!

Regret, despair...

I remember like it was yesterday.

In my old life, I always fantasized while agonizing in my room.

If I suddenly awakened to amazing powers,

or if a hot girl suddenly moved in with me,

I'm sure I could try hard.

Limp dick!

One of those dreams came true,

but my feet won't move.

That despair is waiting for me outside.

Be brave. Try your best.

I'm too scared to take a step forward.

I promised myself I'd get serious,

but my body refuses to keep up.

I might cry.

There, there.

Outside?

Yes, outside the village.

Can't we do it in the garden?

We cannot.

We can't, huh?

He never wants to go out for some reason.

Maybe he's scared of monsters.

You don't run into many monsters in this area.

And even if you do, they're weak, so you could beat them.

Rudy, Caravaggio is really docile.

Let me guess: You're scared

of horses.

I-I'm really not scared of horses.

You act your age when I least expect it.

Okay, upsie-daisy.

There.

Once you get on, it'll stop being scary in no time.

Master, I can't!

Don't worry.

I'm with you, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

Rudy, hang in there!

See? That wasn't so bad.

Don't look at me.

Why are you looking? Stop.

Thanks for the other day.

You're welcome.

No, it's not me.

Morning, Roxy.

Good morning.

They're all looking at Roxy.

Caravaggio is in a good mood.

I think he's happy you're riding him, Rudy.

He is?

What's wrong? Are you still scared?

No, I'm fine now.

What was I afraid of?

--Who's going to make fun of me in a peaceful village like this?

--Hello. --Who's going to make fun of me in a peaceful village like this?

--Hello! --Who's going to make fun of me in a peaceful village like this?

Hello!

--Hello.

--Roxy's amazing. She became at home in the village in just two years. --Hello.

--Roxy's amazing. She became at home in the village in just two years.

--Roxy's amazing. She became at home in the village in just two years. --Hello.

--She must have faced prejudice due to her hair. --Hello.

--She must have faced prejudice due to her hair. --Hello!

It's a nice village, huh, Master?

Yes.

I'm quite fond of it, too.

This looks like a good spot.

It feels nice, huh?

I will now use sacred-level water magic.

I can only cast it once.

Watch closely, memorize it, and then cast it.

That's your final exam.

Are we doing it away from people because it's a secret spell?

No.

We're doing it because it might harm people or crops.

Grand spirit of water and imperial prince of lightning who ascends the heavens,

grant my wish and bring about a savage blessing.

Display your might to insignificant beings.

Strike awe with a blow of your divine hammer on the anvil,

and cover the land in water!

Ah, Rain!

Sweep all else away and expel everything!

Cumulonimbus!

Huh?

Ah!

Wh-What should I do?

H-Hurry, Master, cast Healing!

Th-That's right!

That was a close one.

M-May I ask you to keep this between us?

Don't worry. I won't say a word.

Please don't.

Now, you try it!

I'll protect Caravaggio!

A final exam.

That means this is the end of our home tutoring.

Grand spirit of water and imperial prince of lightning who ascends the heavens,

--grant my wish and bring about a savage blessing.

--This is Roxy. --grant my wish and bring about a savage blessing.

--She'll say, "I can't impose on you when I have nothing left to teach," --grant my wish and bring about a savage blessing.

--She'll say, "I can't impose on you when I have nothing left to teach," --Display your might to this puny being.

--She'll say, "I can't impose on you when I have nothing left to teach," --Strike awe with a blow of your divine hammer on the anvil,

--and just leave the house tomorrow. --Strike awe with a blow of your divine hammer on the anvil,

--That makes this our last day. --and cover the land in water!

Wow.

Ah, Rain!

--Sweep all else away and expel everything!

--I wish I'd talked with her more. --Sweep all else away and expel everything!

Cumulonimbus!

I didn't tell you to make it bigger than my demonstration.

Did I overdo it?

It's a shame.

Now there really is nothing more I can teach you.

Congratulations.

You are now a sacred-level water mage.

You don't have to leave, you know, Roxy.

I have a lot more recipes to teach you.

Yeah. The villagers would love to have you around.

I'm grateful,

but I plan to travel the world

and hone my magical abilities over again.

I see.

Well, I guess...

Sorry.

It looks like our son made you lose confidence.

That's not a great way to put it, Paul.

Rudy, I did the best I could,

but it seems I lack the ability to guide you.

That's not true.

You taught me all sorts of things, Master.

Oh, yes.

What's this?

A charm from my hometown.

I didn't have time to prepare a graduation party,

so this will have to do.

I'll treasure it!

That would make me happy.

Now, it's time I go.

Goodbye.

Master!

Thank you very much!

I really did get a lot from her.

Knowledge, experience, technique,

and most importantly, she brought me outside.

I went outside. That's all it was.

But it was definitely a trauma I was carrying.

She healed it for me.

She didn't do it on purpose. I know that.

Still,

I'm going to respect that little girl.

Or so I thought,

but I had a pair of Roxy's panties I stole a few months ago.

Sorry.

"Episode 2: Master"

Sorry.

"Next time:" "A Friend"
