A Brave Priest

A Brave Priest

Man, it actually kinda looks like a ryokan-style inn.

Pretty sweet, right?

The priest had the idea for the business.

It's a casual hot spring inn for the Braves and mercenaries in the area.

A hot springs especially for killers? Insane.

Wait, that means we could've just driven here!

Pipe down. Just think of it as part of your training.

Training...!

Good to see you're all excited.

You must be Yashiro the Reaper.

You killed the Rainbow Bearded Serpent, right?

It's an honor to meet such an ace among killers!

Hey, you're the guy from before!

This is Tetsu.

He's the leader of a party that's staying here at the moment.

I'm returning from the Mexican underworld...

They call me Magic Bullet Tetsu.

Never heard of you, so buzz off, dumbass.

Can't believe you just started blasting.

Why'd you attack me, anyway, Malta?

Well, someone wanted to see how you handle a sword.

This guy?

Not me!

Malta, you bastard...

Well, I better go get the rooms ready!

You'll find the priest upstairs!

He's hiding something.

That reminds me...

Sara.

Malta was the only one using E3 in the fight, right?

I'm sensing maybe two Dark Lords, who are on E3?

Where did the other one go?

Think he's over by the guest rooms now.

I see.

Hey, Yashiro, let's play a round of Medallion!

Why are you talking to me, dumbass?

I'll kick your ass later.

First, I'm gonna explain how to handle the priest.

Handle him?

Yeah. Fundamentally, you wanna avoid him if at all possible.

Well, well. It's a pleasure to meet you lovely young ladies!

And if it isn't Yashiro-sama! Good to see you again.

Welcome to our Brave Hot Spring.

Please, relax and enjoy yourselves.

I have a special room prepared for you ladies!

Yes, a very...

special room indeed.

Master, he may be right about how how lovely I am,

but I accidentally read his mind just now.

And now I feel nauseous.

Please, support me.

I don't care. Just deal with it.

That's the priest for you.

Oh? You seem rather exhausted.

Well, I've prepared a room for Yashiro-sama,

so why don't the three of you relax in your shared room?

Actually, we're paying, and it'll be the four of us in one room.

Now, now! That won't do!

It would be inappropriate for a man and some teenagers to share a room...

We'll provide the accommodations you asked for, Yashiro-sama!

Whoa, S-Sensei! Should we really all be in the same room?

I mean, y'know...

Hell, if you don't see the problem,

that's kinda a problem in itself...

Man, what am I even saying?

I'm not thrilled either.

Can't bring in any call girls like this.

Master!

That was a joke. Besides, I doubt there are any this far in the mountains anyway.

Master!

I get it! My bad!

Anyway, this guy might be a Brave,

but his hobbies are killing...

and assault.

He's actually wanted by the police because of it.

He ordered me a poison pizza once.

One Year Ago An incident where he delivered poisoned pizza to Goonies

One Year Ago An incident where he delivered poisoned pizza to Goonies (For the third time)

One Year Ago An incident where he delivered poisoned pizza to Goonies (For the third time) (Nobody fell for it)

One Year Ago An incident where he delivered poisoned pizza to Goonies (For the third time) (Nobody fell for it) (It got him banned)

He's the kind of freak who'd kill and rob an acquaintance,

if they let their guard down.

Shouldn't we kill him, then?

You're not wrong, but he's not a Dark Lord,

and he always manages to escape, somehow.

Come now, you make it sound so sinister.

I assure you, it was just a string of unfortunate misunderstandings.

I mean, take a look. I'm clearly the model of a devout clergyman, aren't I?

You three use that "special room" of his, there's no telling what'll happen to you.

If anything happened to you in particular, Sara, King Arthur would kill me.

So, sorry, but we're sharing a room.

And while we stay here, make sure to watch your backs.

He'll try to stab you on reflex, if you're not on alert.

I'd do no such thing!

You know, I intend on opening an orphanage with the money from this business.

A place for poor, unfortunate children to gather and feel at home.

Shut up!

It appears to be an ideal example of a ryokan-style room!

But we cannot lower our guard!

Sara, give it a good scan.

Right here. I think there's something in these yukata.

Poison needles.

I'd guess it's some kind of anesthetic or another.

Nice work finding it.

You get twenty "You Did Pretty good" points.

Should we maybe just sleep outside?

That'd just be an alternate way to die.

And we would die.

Well, I've got preparations to do for tonight's big fight.

Your big fight is a game of Medallion?

Don't sound so dismissive!

This winter...

His Majesty King Rob is going to have an autograph session.

I must prove myself to be a warrior with enough glory to justify my attendance.

Instructor, how's this game work?

You wanna learn?

Kinda.

Hey, you're in the way.

He's right, Yukine! But the idea also never occurred to me.

Move! That's my seat!

You're in the way too, damn it!

Sensei, your deck is kinda dependent on quick attacks and is, like,

really lacking in firepower.

So when it turns into a war of attrition, you end up losing.

Troops have gotta be ready at the drop of a hat.

You might be too young to understand.

What are you talking about? I beat you the other day.

Victory boils down to luck of the moment!

If I had wiped out your troops sooner, I would've won!

And I'm telling you, focusing on speed won't—

Wait.

Wait just a moment here, please.

Sara! Since when have you been enjoying card games with Master?!

It wasn't exactly enjoyable.

He asked me to play him, so I did.

All of you, pipe down!

Oh, it's Malta-san!

Go ahead and come in, man.

Hey, Yashiro, we're about to go visit a nearby Dark Lord's lair.

You and the gals want in?

I bet it's gonna be fun!

There it is.

I'm not sure I follow.

Better explain in detail.

I don't come cheap.

It's their nest.

Those Nephillim monsters that wiped out the Lamplights in the north...

The facility that's producing them is in the northeast.

I mean, it's not like they're growing on trees.

Stands to reason they've got a nest somewhere.

Instructor. Who is he?

You're asking now?

He's technically the student of a big-shot sword style,

but he ran into trouble and is currently a bit of a drifter.

Go on. Do you have an actual location?

I had some words with the local Dark Lords.

Over the last decade, one Count of the Venusian Veil has been amassing power,

and his lair is where the beasties have been seen coming from.

We were about to plan the raid.

Your group showed up at the perfect time.

Wait, what's this mean?

The investigating I planned to do tomorrow was taken care of by my boy here!

Malta, honestly, you're so good at this, it makes me and Joe look bad!

Don't be silly. You're plenty impressive for showing up before I could make a move.

I really intended on returning to Tokyo,

acting all smug, having taken care of it on my own.

At the end of the day, me, Malta, and probably Joe are all the same.

We all bust our asses to make ourselves look good to each other, among friends.

That's the only kind of glory we really need.

Taking down a lair is a big job.

Do you have a sponsor?

Yep. And we'd better hurry.

The Count of Rupturing Star Charts is waiting!

Scum of the Brave

The Room of Friendship and Bonds

That's the Count of Rupturing Star Charts?

Seriously?

Overwhelmed by thoughts...

He's so young. That really him?

Yep, so I hear.

He was the big Dark Lord around these parts before I was even born.

Either it's some kind of body double, or he doesn't look his age...

Looks like we're all here.

We're short on time, so let's keep it simple.

I'll speak first. Questions come after.

You all know our target already:

the Count of the Venusian Veil.

We're going to bring all his minions back here.

Dead or alive.

Those are the orders.

The Count of the Venusian Veil's gone too far.

Had himself a nice little piece of land,

but he started doing shady business there.

I even hear that he's been shipping those monsters overseas lately.

He's being a neighborhood nuisance.

So, that being the case, I want you folks to assault his headquarters.

I want it done tonight.

I want to wipe out the Count of the Venusian Veil.

That's all. Any questions?

Right here.

We've got data on the lair,

but their defense emplacements are crazy.

There's no way a frontal assault works.

Don't worry about getting intercepted.

I'll handle it.

Once the antiair units are taken care of, you'll be able to drop in.

I want you all to focus on what's gonna happen once you're inside the lair.

There'll be additional men outside. Their job is to encircle the lair.

You won't want to include them among your number.

Anything else?

You mentioned this needs to go down tonight. That seems rushed.

Any reason?

Yeah, I hate to admit it,

but it's a personal thing.

The longer this takes, the better chance they have of getting away.

And it'd look bad if that happened.

Then it's about his rep...

Part of being a Dark Lord is being aware of others' perceptions of you.

Getting made a mockery of by someone lower than you

on the totem pole is bad for business.

Which is why this needs to be wrapped up tonight.

Or do urgent jobs like this scare you, Yashiro the Reaper?

You must be a pretty big deal, if you know who I am.

But I'd appreciate it if you didn't talk about me like that.

I'm not the scared one.

Sensei, come on!

Do you have to pick a fight every time?

Gotta stand up for yourself.

You let a Dark Lord look down on you, and they'll never stop.

He's got a point.

So, show respect.

No, that was a rude way of putting it.

Let me rephrase.

Yashiro the Reaper is a courageous warrior.

Our mutual Yagyu friend told me all about him.

He's very skilled.

Sure enough.

Go ahead and get your hopes up.

I'll deliver the Count of the Venusian Veil's head to you.

Sounds good.

I'll make sure to reward you, if you do.

Any other questions?

If not, let's figure out how we're doing this.

First, regarding the surrounding terrain...

Master, I'm having trouble accepting this situation.

Wouldn't aiding a Dark Lord in defeating another Dark Lord

still be assisting an evildoer?

Do you wanna kill this guy?

Or do you get the feeling he'll betray us?

Not exactly, but...

Then don't worry about it.

You can trust people who care about maintaining their reputation.

As long as you've got shared interests, that is.

That oughta do it for planning.

I must prepare.

Captain, you take it from here.

Okay!

No guards? Talk about careless.

Your six o'clock weather forecast.

Tonight, a high pressure system from the west

will envelop the whole of Hokkaido, resulting in clear skies.

Light wind in the central regions, with a wonderful view of the stars.

No.

Tonight, the weather will worsen, with strong winds and thunder.

Those who blight my grandfather's land

will face judgment from the kamuy of storms.

Okay, let me introduce our squad that'll be invading the lair.

Don't want any friendly fire incidents, after all.

I'm Shikizaki. Combat recon is my deal.

The plan is for me to scout ahead and locate the Dark Lord.

I'm Hotta. I'm on recon along with the gloomy old man from before.

Who are you calling gloomy?

I can punch through floors and walls,

so let me know if you need that done.

I'm Soya. I'm not talking about my power.

I'm Kumaishi. My older sister and I will clear out the lair.

Oh, and her vision will activate against anyone other than me,

so if you see us, get some distance.

I'm Higa!

My team is going to be going after the Count of the Venusian Veil's head!

We'll be competing with Yashiro the Reaper in that regard!

I do not care. So obnoxious.

I'm Onoda. I'm here to guard the chopper.

And I'm the pilot, Hatakeyama.

I'm the comms officer, Kito.

I'm Tsuji.

Well...

I'm Yashiro the Reaper. Enough said, right?

I am a second-year in the academy's special course, Jogamine Aki!

Master Yashiro's first apprentice—

This here is part-time hired muscle A.

Here we have Kashiwagi, part-time hired muscle B,

and part-time hired muscle C, Indo.

Wow.

He likes them young.

Leading a team of teen girls...

It's like in FFV.

Totally FFV.

Tetsu-san, are we really going in via chopper?

I'm not great with heights.

Really? Well, good luck!

Central Hokkaido Horonai

You all right?

F-F-F-F-F-Fi-F-F-F-F...

Calm down, man, I'm here with you.

And no more booze.

You wanna lie down?

Master, I just remembered that I also suffer from acrophobia!

Might I receive a kind word as well?!

Shut up.

Aki... Don't piss off Sensei.

That wasn't my intention.

But as a beautiful young girl, I wanted to get his sympathy,

and hopefully stir his protective instincts!

You've got no shame, do you?

Is that where we're headed?

It's gonna be rough, even with these numbers.

Hey, give me some space.

Yukine! You're having all the fun again!

Sara! We need to separate them! Help me!

Quit shaking the damn helicopter!

You're scaring Malta!

Hey, baldy, is the Count of Rupturing Star Charts ready yet?

Should be soon.

Oh, have you never seen it before, Mr. Reaper?

Only heard rumors. What's it like?

Well, if you live in Hokkaido, you can tell, even from a distance.

Take a look at the clouds above the lair.

Wha...

I-Isn't that...

Remarkable!

Seriously?

Damn.

It's not over yet.

Oh, look! See how his minions are starting to assemble on the ground?

Where'd they all come from?

What the hell?

This is basically war.

That's a fight between Dark Lords for you.

Okay, we're heading down!

Mr. Reaper! I think I'm gonna finally see you in action!

Bite me, baldy, and fly this thing a little smoother!

Next Time

I've never ridden in a helicopter before!

Guess it's true about idiots and smoke loving high places.

Then you like high places too, Master?

Say what?

Next time! "A Brave's Melee."

Say that again. Who're you calling stupid?

A Brave's Melee

A Brave's Melee

Hey! I'm talking to you, damn it!
