Let's go.

Okay.

Slowly...

Keel will be so upset that he couldn't come with us.

The old lady and Eclair can take care of that.

They know how to talk him down.

They asked us to deliver their fighting spirit, after all.

Oh, I see.

Hey, look over there!

"Illustration: Masahiro Suwa"

Filo!

I can't fly anymore!

You could if you went back to Kizuna's world and became a Humming Fairy again.

Filolials can't fly, after all.

What?

Then let's go back to see Big Sis Kizuna.

You know we can't.

I wonder how Kizuna's doing.

Just fine, I'm sure.

I'll bet she's out fishing too.

Maybe you should've learned survival skills from Kizuna too, Rishia.

Huh?! I was just thinking that!

She'd be able to light a fire in an instant.

What is it?

I was just remembering when we went clothes shopping with Kizuna in Mikakage

after I went back to level one and shrank.

Oh, that time?

We should buy some clothes and armor.

Your defense and looks are kinda low in those.

They've got both eastern and western clothes here.

It'll be less conspicuous to wear eastern clothes in this kingdom.

What're you looking at?

Ooh, they don't just have a good selection of equipment, but clothes too?

Yes, they do.

I'd like to try on a few different ones...

I'm not sure which to choose.

Huh, you're pretty into this.

Well, I guess you are a girl. You should try to look nice-

Oh. Mhm.

What is it?

Oh, nothing.

Maybe Big Sis Kizuna here can find something nice for Raphtalia.

K-Kizuna?

Rishia, help me dress her up too.

Huh? "Dress up"?

Rishia, can you hold this?

L-Like this?

No, no! Tighter!

I-I can't breathe!

And voila!

It looks so exotic and foreign!

But this doesn't seem useful for battle...

Yeah, you're right.

Why not take this...

and hem it up?

Kizuna, you can't do that!

Huh? But this'd kill that pedo Naofumi in one hit.

"Pedo"?

Okay, next!

How's this?

You're a samurai that defends your motherland from invasion!

"Samurai"?

It's too heavy...

Yeah, it is...

Next.

Your proper maid style!

It's so cute!

But these are servants' clothes, right?

Next!

These make it easy to play around in the river!

Wh-Why me too?!

Please take this seriously.

Ooh! This is good!

It offers both mobility and adorableness.

And it hides the erotic with a healthy purity!

It looks great!

I like this one too!

Okay! Then let's get it!

Thank you so much, Kizuna, Rishia!

Oh, no. I only helped dress... dress you up?

I hope Naofumi likes it too.

Right...

Nice! You all look great!

You don't need to buy anything new?

I'm perfectly fine with this.

That coat's riddled with holes.

Glass gave me this, though.

Oh, I see. Sorry.

Master Naofumi, do you think this looks good on me too?

Yeah, I think it's good.

Rishia kind of looks like a kunoichi.

"Kunoichi"?

Master Naofumi! Who do you think looks best among us?

Well, let's see.

From a defense perspective, my armor looks the best.

Man, Naofumi's the very definition of "dense."

But Raphtalia's totally into him too.

Their relationship really is something else.

I see.

The Shield Hero and the Katana Hero are in a relationship with each other?

I didn't say that they were "in a relationship."

Oh, sorry for making you come fishing and then droning on about this.

Not a problem. You're doing everything you can to restore the peace around Luvar.

Fishing is nothing compared to that.

We're just doing what we need to do.

In fact, I want to hear more of your stories.

Really?

If you're okay with this, then I can talk all day.

Then can you tell me about when you were in the Infinite Labyrinth?

Huh?!

I hear that being imprisoned in it meant death.

But you survived alone in it for years.

Oh, well, yeah, I guess.

Please tell me more about it.

What kind of life did you lead inside the Infinite Labyrinth?

No way...

I have to live here until I die?

Bro L'Arc... Sis Therese...

Glass...

No way I'm going to sit in here forever!

There has to be a way out somewhere!

I'll search every inch of this island and find it!

I'll need to eat something to do that.

Now fish...

Are there any?

Got one!

Next, I need fire!

Behold human technology!

Should I roast them on the fire?

Steaming sounds good too!

Or maybe some fish soup?

Oh, I need to make a broth...

Cooking in a salt crust sounds good too.

Yeah! I can do anything with a fire!

I'm bored.

What's so great about solo camping?!

It's not fun unless you know how to cook!

I'm getting out of this place now!

There might be an exit at the horizon!

Huh?

What?

What the heck? Is this the end of the sea?

Man, what the heck?!

Ugh. Oh well.

They're all flavorless no matter how I cook them.

I guess I need to get some kind of seasonings?

I know I can dry out seawater to make salt, but that's such a pain!

"If you'd rather die, then why not take the effort to make salt?"

I mean, I know, you're right...

All right, don't look at me like that.

I'll try it out once. That's all, right?

Whoa! Just putting some salt on before roasting it makes it good!

It's good!

It's so good!

What the heck?! How is it so different?!

Hey, no need to be so smug.

But yeah, you're right.

I should try to make others too.

Maybe something sweet or spicy.

Back then, when I saw the light from Naofumi entering the Labyrinth,

the hands of my frozen time started moving again. That's how I felt.

That's the end of that story.

So you survived for years in the Infinite Labyrinth thanks to your partner.

Partner?

The ball that you drew a face on.

Did you bring your partner with you?

Huh?

Um... you see...

Uh... well...

That ball was like what Kyo was to me.

Uh...

What?!

Lately, I've tried to remember his face, but I can't.

It's so strange.

We were together since we were children.

Every time I try to remember, I only remember his face in his final moments.

I just can't remember.

It might be better to try remembering happy times instead of hard times.

What do you mean?

Try remembering the times that you were happy together with him.

This was before Kyo went to the other world and instigated the Spirit Tortoise.

I was helping him in his laboratory.

I wanted to be helpful to him.

And then, one day...

One day...

He came running to me with such a look on his face!

His brow was furrowed this thick, and what does he say?

"Where are my glasses?!" he shouts!

You see, he had his glasses on his head! And he had to ask!

I wanted so badly to tell him that they were on his head,

but I held it in by force of will!

It was funny watching Kyo run about, turning the whole laboratory over!

I watched in silence for a while, but unfortunately, Kyo eventually realized.

The look on his face when he did!

And what do you think he said after that?

With his flustered face, he said, "Ugh. You could've told me."

Get that!

A few months after that, he left for the world with the Spirit Tortoise.

Thinking back on it, that was the last time I had a happy memory with Kyo.

Thank you.

Thanks to you, I could remember his face.

Should we get going?

If we stay out too late, Glass'll come to fetch us.

Yes. We are almost done.

"The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2"

Quit it, Filo!

It's okay, Master!

I'll fly this time!

You're imagining things! You're a filolial now!

He's right, Filo! You can jump over it by yourself,

but you can't with the cart!

Jump?

Filo, I'm sorry, but jumping and flying like a Humming Fairy are different things!

Okay...

Sorry, Master.

I'll go around it.

I wish I could fly again...

You can't do the things you can't do in this world.

If only Ost were with us...

You're right. Maybe Ost could use her gravity magic to float Filo and the cart.

And she'd watch from the side with a smile.

Oh, right.

There was the time she tried to casually explain so that you would understand,

and it turned into a huge scene!

Huh?

That...

Rishia! You can't talk about that!

What?

Um, Ost...

What is it?

I've been meaning to ask...

Yes? Ask anything that you'd like.

What are "circumstances that can't be denied"?

Um... Hm... Come again?

"Circumstances that can't be denied"? What's that?

I couldn't understand the advice that you gave to Rishia.

Oh, that advice!

That's right! I gave her advice!

Ost!

Raphtalia, circumstances that can't be denied are-

No! That means that you can't tell her!

Oh, did it?

Rishia, I'm fine.

Huh?!

I am Master Naofumi's sword.

I can accept anything that may come!

Well, I'm not sure about this...

Then I'll tell you quietly.

Whisper, whisper...

I told you not to!

...is what it means.

Do that to the thing?

I don't understand. What do you mean by "that"?

And what is "the thing"?

No fair, Big Sis Raphtalia!

I wanna know too!

Raphtalia can't understand it, so I'm sure you can't either, Filo.

Whisper, whisper...

Huh?

You mean mate with Master?

"Mate"?

Ost! Wh-Wh-What are you saying?!

Oh? So you understand now, Raphtalia?

I don't!

-Let's stop this! -I don't understand, but I understand!

-Let's stop talking about this! -Then I guess you need to know more.

-Did you hear me, Ost?! -Then I guess you need to know more.

I-I don't need to know anymore!

Really? Then I'll listen!

No, Filo. This is shameful!

Shameful?

Is mating shameful?

Well, um...

It is a very wonderful thing.

Though I use it in a very shameful way.

I don't know what's right or wrong anymore!

What is "the thing"?

Will you stop it already?!

Oh, my, my.

This isn't funny, Ost!

"The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2"

"The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2"

It was quite a scene, but it was fun.

I nearly had a heart attack!

What have you been talking about?

Oh, you know, you know? Filo and Master-

Stop it!

Come on.

Hey. We're here, Ost.

Even if the clock hands turn back

We found something that'll last

The desire to be there for one another

The wish and the bonds that we share

Even if it all goes back to zero

Even if it's the end of the world

I'll rush through time to you

And promise you won't be alone

-Should we go? These eyes

-Yes. These eyes

-Okay! Are for watching over you

This voice

Is for guiding you

These hands

Are for holding you

This time

Is for making sure you have a tomorrow

Believing in you

That's all we need to do

It's what lets us grow stronger

Than anyone else

You taught us that

Ever since that day

That unchanging light

"A Bouquet for Memory" Even if the time comes for us to part

We'll be sure to find you again

Lying on a rocking horse cart

We counted the shooting stars

The loneliness and insecurity in my heart

Disappeared into the night on the wind

Before you fall asleep

What world do you wish for?

Before you forget everything

I want even one more of your wishes to come true

These eyes

Are for watching over you

This voice

Is for guiding you

These hands

Are for holding you

This time

Is for ensuring there are flowers in our future

Since when was it

That your future

A future without me

It can't be that way

Even if I have to fight everything

To be by your side

Believing in you

That's all we need to do

It's what lets us grow stronger

Than anyone else

You taught us that

Ever since that day

That unchanging light

Even if the time comes for us to part

We'll be sure to find you again
