That Reminds Me, I Almost Got Assassinated Once 05
Yousuke remembers almost being assassinated. His memory shows that Mabel tried to kill him; after he killed the fire dragon without her ice sword, she lost her life's purpose to guard the sword as no one needed it anymore. The villagers told her to get a real job, so she left. Yousuke told her to do what makes her happy, so she decided to become an adventurer, cure her own broken heart and unfreeze the ice sword. She passes out, and Yousuke takes her back to his room, where he also gave her a ring, promising to take care of her. His proposal almost healed her heart and the ice sword began to melt, until Yousuke explained she should sell the ring as it is worth enough money to take care of herself. Mabel, enraged, begins fighting Yousuke, but is restrained by him, until Elga, who is in another room, hears the commotion and walks inside, deciding to help Mabel freeze Yousuke. While he was frozen, Mabel explains to Elga that her Ice Clan was founded 400 years previously by a Japanese Samurai who was reincarnated. His wish asked for the power to kill God, the Ice Sword, and she believes Yousuke to also be Japanese. Takafumi asks if Yousuke received a wish and he is unsure. They rewind the memory to when Yousuke was first transported and hear Granbahamal’s god through a pre-recorded message in Mandarin Chinese. Takafumi uses a translation app and learns that, by mistake, Yousuke had only wished to understand Granbahamal’s language, effectively wasting his wish. Yousuke uses this power to communicate with a group of adventurers who thought he was an orc, only for them to think he is simply an intelligent orc. Disillusioned with his story, Takafumi and Sumika stop watching and get coffee. (Source: Wikipedia)
