An Adventurer's Daily Grind at Age 29 (2026) s01e04 Episode Script
First Love's Outcome
1
You've leveled up! Congratulations!
We got stronger together!
Once you complete a promotion quest,
you'll both be bronze adventurers.
Bronze?
It's a rank for adventurers.
Mr. Shinonome.
Since they're both ready, why not
tackle a promotion quest?
It'd be clearing this dungeon.
It's scheduled for disposal, but it
needs to be examined one last time.
And since it counts as a promotion quest,
it'll be two birds with one stone!
You're a shrewd customer, huh?
The dungeon destroyer
is already on the way,
so get going as early as tomorrow.
The dungeon destroyer?!
Whatever that is, it sounds scary!
Maybe it's some kind
of super buff cyclops?!
DUNGEON
They're part of an ancient
species, just like you.
The guild hires 'em to get rid
of dungeons that are tapped out.
That's so cool!
Wait, you're an ancient race,
Rirui?! That's awesome!
Ruri is forced to calm
the draconic force that dwells within!
Wow, Rirui! That's super cool!
Rirui's suffering a condition common
among adventurers
who've gotten the tiniest bit stronger
My ogre claw will shred my foes!
HAJIME IN HIS YOUNGER DAYS
I wish my past would stay in the past!
You too, pops?! I wanna get in on this!
My power! I can't control it!
AN ADVENTURER'S DAILY GRIND AT AGE 29
EPISODE 4: FIRST LOVE'S OUTCOME
This is awesome! What is this place?
This is what's called a flat-type dungeon.
It looks so peaceful!
Stay on your toes.
TREE STUMP DUNGEON
SCARECROW KNIGH
Once we beat him, we'll be
bronze-rank adventurers!
Yeah! Let's do it!
Anya!
Ow.
Rirui!
Take this, then!
Now! Slaughter him!
Yeah!
Hyah! Eat it! Die! Die already!
W-W
Well done.
Yay!
Congrats on clearing your first dungeon.
Now we're bronze-rank adventurers!
We'll be taking on dragons soon!
I dunno about that.
Hey, looks like they're here.
H-Hajime?
Welcome back. And what great timing!
Huh?
What're you two doing?
I mean
No need to worry. My Go is a
very clever, gentle snake.
But it's so huge and scary
And you're telling me the dungeon
destroyer is actually nice?
It's not the snake.
This is our dungeon destroyer,
Miss Sekihime.
This is awesome! We're so high up!
Quit making a racket, Rirui!
And for your information, that isn't
just a snake. It serves as her eyes.
Should I get down?
No, it's quite all right.
Thank you so much!
Now, onward, Go! Onward!
Sekihime the medusa
A member of an ancient species
with the power to turn anything
they look at into stone.
Did she fall asleep?!
Hajime, Hajime! Look up there!
Something huge is flying around!
Looks like a wandering whale.
A wandering whale? Do they taste good?
Delicious, actually.
Rirui wants to try one! How come Hajime
gets to eat all the good stuff?!
Maybe you can have some next time.
Wandering whales
They take a little getting used to,
but taste very good.
Yet I can't tell what they look like
or what color they are.
Is this the correct direction?
Yeah. We're right behind you,
so please don't turn around.
Right.
I knew about it beforehand, but
I wasn't expecting all this!
Whoa! The dungeon's gonna collapse!
She keeps staring at the sky.
It's about the only thing
she can look at safely.
She seems kinda sad to me.
The power of an ancient species, huh?
I remember hearing about a medusa once.
Someone in the employ of the guild
serving as a dungeon destroyer.
At the time, I thought she was lucky
since she'd never be out of work, but
Okay, I say it's time for bed.
Sure thing.
Hajime! Hajime!
Hajime!
Rirui! What is it? What happened?
Whoa, I think I shrunk!
Then it really is you!
What do you mean by that?
I can open my eyes without
petrifying things!
Grass swaying!
Ugly birds!
The world
looks so super soft!
And so super colorful!
Yeah, something weird
is definitely going on here.
This is super fun!
Super fun, indeed!
She's already taking after her
Well, considering the medusa
can open her eyes,
we're probably not
dealing with reality here.
Wh-What in the world?!
Were slimes always like this?
Is this what people mean
when they say "squishy"?!
THE KIND OF SLIME SHE'S FAMILIAR WITH
(PETRIFIED)
Lady, you have to be quiet around slimes!
Hey! Get back here!
Thank you, strange boy I don't know.
S-Sure.
The world seems to be so much fun!
I had no idea!
Hey! Let's move on ahead!
What is this?
A big old puddle!
It's the sea.
The sea? Really?
I've heard so much about it!
This is where I met the big turtle, lady!
It's one of those whales
from the other day!
They're overwhelming!
Truly, did you see how huge it was?!
And truly, how shocking?!
Truly, truly!
Welp, if Rirui knows where we are
this isn't my dream.
Rirui, that mark on your arm
Hey, there's something weird on me.
I think that's the kind that appears
when you learn a special skill.
Veronica has one on the
right side of her chest.
It's in the shape of a heart.
Dreams, skills, ancient species
I get it! Concubus!
Conwhat?
It's another word for a succubus.
Olive mentioned that there are some who
can do stuff in the world of dreams.
My, so Rirui is the one showing
me this lovely dream?
Thank you so much for treating me
to a wonderful dream adventure, Rirui.
This is Rirui's ancient species power?
Hey! You're totally welcome, lady!
Oh, I'm back to normal.
You are totally my type!
Please, would you like to go out with me?

AN ADVENTURER'S DAILY GRIND AT AGE 29
Apparently, love is a thing
that exists in this world.
Hajime.
When will you be getting home?
This evening, I think?
I'll be waiting, then.
Sure? Catch you then.
This is rough.
I mean, women have taken
a liking to me before, but
Hey, Hajime!
How about a discount?
something about this feels different.
Please, would you like to go out with me?
Hey, Hajime!
What's going on?
Rirui's kinda freaking me out today.
If something's wrong, let's talk
it out! We're friends, right?
Hajime!
What are you going to do about that lady?!
What lady?
Well, let's say you two grew up
and started to like me.
If you felt that way about me
That'd mean I could touch
your butts for free, right?!
Such disdain is usually
reserved for insects.
That's a lot of slimes!
Come to think of it,
Miss Sekihime is still at the inn.
She kinda asked me out.
Sh-She what?!
Well, that's certainly something.
I've been trying to figure
out what to do all day.
I see.
You're quite the charmer,
aren't you, Mr. Shinonome?
Well, whatever you do,
I advise not upsetting her
so you don't get turned to stone.
This love stuff is tough.
Hajime.
Something to top off a hard day's work.
S-sure.
Sorry! I didn't hold the
cup in the right position!
Oh my.
I wanted to try and pour you a drink,
like I've heard poets tell of.
Enjoying yourself?
Yes! I actually fancy your voice as well.
I spoke with Natalie today,
and she told me what you're normally like.
LOVES TALK OF ROMANCE
I've never felt this way before,
so I'm a bit giddy.
Okay, sorry, gotta borrow
him for a second.
What, Veronica?!
I hear she told you how she felt.
Yeah.
And what are you going to do?
I honestly don't know
Turn her down!
Wh-What's it matter to you?
You and I are childhood friends.
We've known each other a long time.
I'm a beautiful succubus.
No shortage of men have fallen for me.
But
You're the only one
who'd never look at me!
Veronica
So you've gotta fall in love
with me first, got it?!
That way I can reject you!
Are you trying to wound my pride?!
You can date whomever you want
after I shoot you down!
What is wrong with you?!
Hajime!
Rirui?
Hajime
Rirui is going to become
an amazing adventurer!
I might still be a kid
But I'll get strong and really pretty!
And my boobies will get big too!
So So you
Rirui.
Unbelievable.
For now, I've got my hands full
adventuring with this brat.
Can we talk, Sekihime?
Why, yes!
The sounds of Comai Village at night
This is like the evening rendezvous
I've heard of in song.
Well, no
It's not a date.
Have I done something wrong?
It's not like that.
But I can't start seeing you, either.
I don't really get how it works.
So I'm sorry.
This hurts way more than I imagined!
This sucks! I'm super sad!
M-Maybe a nice meal would help?
I can't eat at a time like this!
This really sucks! I feel miserable!
Calm down, Sekihime! Your powers
are going out of control!
I can't! I'm way too bummed out!
This is looking bad!
Fine! Let's go out!
I mean, I'll get to touch your
boobs and butt for free, right?!
So I won't have to drop any more money
on "adult adventures," right?!
Um
I feel like I should apologize?
That was a little too insensitive.
You're the best, Hajime!
Don't worry, Hajime.
Rirui will look after you.
This love stuff really is hard.
