We're done for!
On the 18th Level, the Under Resort,
Bell and the other adventurers joined
together to face the monster that appeared there.
And they defeated it.
Let's go, Bell. Back to our home.
Back to the surface and the light!
How'd we end up here again?
Karada wa konna ni kutakuta ni tsukareteru no ni
My body is beaten down and exhausted
Kokoro wa doushite dokidoki ga tomaranain daro?
So why doesn't my heart stop pounding?
Kinou to chigau ashita ga aru koto
You believe tomorrow will be different from yesterday
Shinjirareru jibun ga iru nara kyou mo hashire
If you're here, keep running today
Taoretatte hazukashikunai mou ichido tachiagareba
It's not embarrassing to be knocked down if you get back up again
Ato sukoshi de tadoritsukesou na yokan ga shiteru
I have a feeling we'll get there soon
Yume no chizu nante iranai
I don't need a map of my dreams
Mezasu basho wa mou zutto kimatteiru
I've known where I want to go for a long time
Atarashii sekai ni ima deaitai yo
I want to meet you now in a new world
Is It Wrong to Expect
a Hot Spring in a Dungeon?
Man, that was one fierce battle,
if I do say so myself!
I wish we could have relaxed a bit more
on the 18th Level,
but that's not going to happen
as long as Hestia and I are both here.
Seriously.
If Lady Hestia wasn't here, Master Bell and I
coulda taken our sweet time going home together.
What're you trying to say, Miss Supporter?
Bell wants to hurry home with ME
so we can relax all we want!
He won't even GET to relax if you're there, Lady Hestia!
Only I can console Master Bell and show him
all the gratitude he deserves!
What?! Bell's the type of guy who'd rather
spend the day with me than eat three square meals!
Something's coming!
Hell Houn-!
He got them!
It's not over yet!
Those are... Hard Armored!
Don't worry, Goddess!
I won't let anything happen to you!
Bell!
That was amazing, Bell-
You're amazing, Master Bell!
Wha-? Lili...
Hey!
Well fought, Mr. Cranel.
You didn't even need us to lift a finger.
That's our Little Rookie!
No, you flatter me...
Really, Bell?! Bumbling like that,
you oughta be ashamed!
Huh?
Huh? U-uh, I...
Goddess!
Isn't that...
...unexplored territory?
Unexplored... You mean this place
hasn't been mapped out yet?
Exactly.
I'm certain of it.
I don't recall ever seeing
topography like this on this level before.
Its structure is different from a normal pit.
So it's a new discovery, then.
That's incredible, Goddess!
Oh, yeah! O-of course!
With me around, things like this are bound to-
Sniff, sniff...
With me around, things like this are bound to-
H-hey, is something the matter?
No way!
Mikoto!
It's dangerous alone out here!
A hot spring?
Yep! This is most definitely a hot spring!
If there's one thing I'm confident about, it's hot springs!
There doesn't seem to be anything else here.
I don't sense any monsters nearby either.
This must be a place of rest
of the Dungeon's own creation.
I see. Guess that means
it's safe to take a break.
Thank the gods.
H-how is it, Mikoto?
The temperature, the salt ratio! Perfection!
Pure excellence! We should all get in!
We have been pretty exhausted since the 18th Level...
Yeah! Everyone, I think it's time to treat ourselves
to a little hot spring resort time!
Hm? What's the matter?
"What's the matter"?!
Did you forget about that incident at the bathing pool?!
Ah, that precious experience of Bell's?
N..no-!
Ah, that precious experience of Bell's?
A precious experience?
Oh, well... You see... Um...
A precious experience?
Oh, well... You see... Um...
What's he talking about?
In any case, none of us feel comfortable
going in while Hermes is around.
What a waste of a hot spring...
Nooo...
Why don't we wear swimsuits then?
Huh?
If we wear suits, we can all soak in the spring together.
A brilliant idea!
But where are we going to find swimsuits...?
I thought something like this might happen...
...so I came prepared!
That's enough!
These swimsuits were all specially selected by myself.
They are yours now, feel free to take them.
When in the world did he buy these...?
How did he know our sizes?
Does it matter? We can all enjoy the hot spring now!
Right, you can get changed
behind those rocks there. Ladies first!
Do you think you could keep watch?
I won't be going in myself,
so that was my plan from the beginning.
You hear that, Lord Hermes?
All right, I get it!
A hot spring with Bell!
Now's my chance to show him how much better I am
than that Wallen-whatsit since she isn't here.
I'll bet there's a beauty contest unfolding
behind those rocks right about now.
Lili, while still childlike in some ways,
has the strong, lithe body of
one who has survived the Dungeon...
Here we go...
Mikoto's bodacious curves
contrast with her serious, earnest nature,
and now Chigusa's going to expose
that dainty frame of hers to the crystals...
And then my Asfi, who's always been a lovely princess-
Uh-oh...
Her beauty's really something else.
I can guarantee you that.
Now, Hestia's the genuine article.
Heaven's most prominent chest...
Imagine it: just around that rock, out in the open...
Damn that Hermes!
I'll bet he gave me a small size on purpose!
Ripe, juicy white fruits...
Just the thought of them drives you crazy, doesn't it?
Did it!
Goddess! What's wrong?!
I-it's nothing, Bell!
Something unexpected happened, that's all!
Could you wait just a little longer?
All right...
I can't believe it ripped.
That cup size didn't fit?
So selfish, as always.
I-it's not my fault, okay?!
But what are you going to do now?
We don't have any extra suits.
It's not like we'd have anything
bigger than this one anyway.
Just when I thought I'd be able
to swim in the hot spring with Bell...
I think it's a little early to be giving up, Lady Hestia.
Welf-dono. Welf-dono.
Huh?
Can you help us with something, Welf-dono?
M-me...?
Sorry, Bell, my man. She did call me out.
Why only him?
Ah, you really saved the day, Welf!
Nothing like having a talented smith as a friend, huh?
I'll be sure to tell Hephaistos
how skilled you are with your hands!
Uh, thanks...
Really, now... What were you expecting?
Shut up.
I'm coming, Bell!
So, what do you think, Bell? Does it look good on me?
Y-yes, Goddess!
Sorry for the trouble, guys!
Come on, hurry and get changed
so we can all get into the hot spring!
If your suit rips again
I'm making you go in naked, all right?!
I swear!
If your suit rips again
I'm making you go in naked, all right?!
If your suit rips again
I'm making you go in naked, all right?!
Is everyone all changed now?
For some reason, I feel this swimsuit
is incredibly embarrassing.
Mine's just as embarrassing!
A-and mine is embarrassing for a different reason...
What are you saying? You all look great in your suits.
Though I'm disappointed...
Mikoto doesn't seem to want to wear
the swimsuit I picked out for her.
I'm deeply thankful for your kindness, but the
naked body is the very quintessence of the hot spring.
Under the circumstances today,
I've regretfully had to abandon that notion.
However, there are rituals which must be performed
before entering a hot spring!
Everyone! Today, please allow me, Yamato Mikoto,
to teach you some of those practices!
Bell, are hot springs always this annoying to swim in?
Goddess, she's going to the trouble of
teaching us, so let's listen closely.
First, two bows!
Two claps!
One bow!
Then a monetary offering.
Hey, wait!
What's the offering for?
QUIET! IT'S AN OFFICIAL RITUAL!
Next, we say a prayer, then we perform
the traditional San San Kudo ceremony!
Note: Ritualized drinking of sake by a newly married couple.
Kashikomi, kashikomi!
Kashikomi, kashikomi...
Louder! You won't purify anything like that! Once more!
Is she always like this?
Louder! You won't purify anything like that! Once more!
Kashikomi, kashikomi!
I think it's pretty interesting.
A fine example of Far Eastern customs.
Kashikomi, kashikomi!
I think it's pretty interesting.
A fine example of Far Eastern customs.
I still can't hear you! Once more!
Apologies. This isn't a Far Eastern custom, it's just her...
I still can't hear you! Once more!
Apologies. This isn't a Far Eastern custom, it's just her...
Kashikomi, kashikomi!
Apologies. This isn't a Far Eastern custom, it's just her...
That's more like it!
The ritual is now complete.
All that's left is to give our wrists and ankles a good twirl!
And now, into the hot spring!
She doesn't rinse herself off first?
Sorry, sorry, sorry!
Days like these are rather nice every once in a while.
Now, as long as Lord Hermes will behave himself...
Ahh, hot springs are the best.
I feel like years' worth of these mysterious knots
in my shoulders are melting away.
There's nothing mysterious about them...
I'm gonna win the next one!
No, I am!
It's over, isn't it...
Yeah. We're... alive.
You know this is all your fault though, right, my man?
I know. But I don't regret it.
Keh.
Bell!
It looks like this place goes deeper over here.
Let's go check it out!
C-coming, Goddess!
Sorry, I'll be right back.
He's got all the perks, doesn't he.
Well, he IS Little Rookie, after all.
Ouka?
Mikoto found the mouth of the hot spring.
She says that lying down over there will make
our wounds heal faster.
Shall we... go together?
Y-yes.
Careful not to slip.
Thanks, I've got it.
Dammit.
A bit of alone time is necessary for everyone.
Solitude is good.
It allows us to pause and reconsider things.
Reconsider things?
Why the bloomers?
Aren't you hot, Ouka?
If it gets too hot, don't overdo it, okay?
S-sure.
I can't get up!
I apologize for before. Whenever I see a hot spring,
I go blind to everything else.
Don't worry about it.
Besides, I'm glad I got to know
the members of the Takemikazuchi Familia.
Thank you. We're pleased to get to know you too.
It's just as Chigusa-dono said.
Witnessing the strength of you and the others
before my very eyes, I once again...
H-hey.
That foot bath... seems pretty hot, huh?
You know, it's not good for the body to soak
in hot places for too long. Maybe we should...
It's just right!
Perfectly pleasant.
It feels great.
O-okay...
I'm glad we were able to stop here
on our way back to the surface.
I'm sure it will speed up Ouka-dono's recovery.
Yes.
You're really worried about him,
aren't you, Chigusa-dono?
Wha-?
I-I, well, Ouka is the leader of our Familia, so, you see...
You don't have to explain.
You should be proud of
the kindness you have for others.
Thank you...
OUKA!
Forgive us, Ouka-dono!
Ouka! Ouka!
Ouka's going to die!
Wow... Goddess, is this still
part of the Dungeon? Amazing.
It sure is.
Deep in here it's just the two of us.
No one to butt in!
You watch, Wallen-whatsit.
I'll show you that you're just an outsider in the end.
Again?
B-Bell...
It would be bad if we caught a cold down here.
Why don't the two of us huddle a little closer
and warm each other up-
I know!
Why don't we call Lili and the others over too?
I'm sure they'll love this too!
W-wait, Bell!
I'll be right back!
Jeez... Stupid Bell!
Clear your mind. Clear your mind.
What are you doing over there anyway?
Clear your mind. Clear your mind.
What are you doing over there anyway?
I-I could ask you the same.
This is a hot spring!
I know that.
Why, then?
Just staying on alert.
Alert?
Part of me isn't confident
this is just an ordinary hot spring.
What do you mean?
It's just a feeling.
I let Mr. Cranel know as well,
but my feelings are often inaccurate, so...
Clear your mind! Clear your mind! Clear your mind...
Do not compare me and the bloomers.
That's right! They're just bloomers.
Away, earthly desires! Away, earthy desires!
I thought me and Bell were finally
gonna get some alone time!
Huh?
That light wasn't there a second ago.
I'm so thirsty. I'll go get us some water, okay?
Okay.
Bell!
Goddess?
Whaddya think, Bell? Isn't it pretty?
Y-yeah. But, what is this place?
None of that matters...
Because the two of us are finally alone. Bell...
G-Goddess...
Everyone, please get out of the water, now!
Lion, what do you-
M-my swimsuit!
Lili-dono!
Clear your mind! Clear your-
That feels good...
Wh-what is this?!
Whoa, what a view!
That's it... Is this another one of your orchestrations?!
Don't accuse me, I'm innocent.
Indeed, it's hard for me to believe this is
another of Lord Hermes' pranks.
But if that's so...
Mr. Cranel, Lady Hestia!
G-Goddess, I think something's strange.
Nothing's strange at all. I meant it.
No, I wasn't referring to that.
Bell, I... I... I've always-
Monsters!
I have to protect my Goddess.
Bell?
Don't worry, Goddess-
I-I'm sorry, Goddess!
Bell!
Fire-
Damn it-!
Miss Ryu!
Are you all right, Mr. Cranel?
That was a close one.
Thanks to you all...
Lady Hestia! Please stop clinging to Master Bell
when you're all naked!
Please, Lady Hestia, use my cloak for the time being.
Thanks, I'll borrow it for now.
No way...
Bell?
What...
The hot spring's protector...
Look out!
Bell!
It's all right.
I'm going to protect you, Goddess!
Bell!
Fire bolt!
Bell!
You did it, Bell!
Yes, Goddess.
Thank you so much for saving us back there too,
Miss Ryu, Miss Asfi.
You can thank us... later.
Perhaps now you should cover up...
D-don't look, Goddess!
Oh, stop it, Bell. We're closer than that!
D-don't...
Did you see that, Wallen-whatsit?
You could never do something like this!
What's the matter, wittle Ais? Did you catch a-
Just a chill.
I can't believe this whole hot spring
was just a giant monster trap.
All of the previous adventurers
must have been eaten by those things.
No wonder it wasn't listed on the maps.
We should report it to the Guild once we get back.
Please accept my apologies...
I got too dazzled by the hot spring.
Don't worry about it.
In the end, we did get to relax after all.
Yep.
Exactly. I'm glad you're all safe and soun...
Ouka! Hang in there!
We should be on our way soon then.
What is it, Goddess?
Oh, nothing.
Let's go, Bell. Back to our home!
Yes!
The End

You call my name
La La La La La La Lovely day,
