RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: RUN-DOR… what are you doing here?
RUN-DOR: You had gone outside. I followed.
Ritch: Why did you follow me?
RUN-DOR: To conclude whether or not you are targeting Lady Murno.
Ritch: Why would you even think that?!
RUN-DOR: You have not stated your intent.
Ritch: Of course I’m not! It’s just a lot of things have happened today, so I figured I’d come out here to cool my head off!
RUN-DOR: That is the proper procedure for a fever. You are exhibiting uncontrolled temperature fluctuations?
Ritch: Uhh… come again?
RUN-DOR: If Lady Murno is not being targeted, I shall return to the residence.
Ritch: Ahh, wait! Before that…
RUN-DOR: What do you require?
Ritch: We should start over. Let’s work hard together, RUN-DOR!
RUN-DOR: … Yes.
Ritch: I’m kinda worried about that subtle pause there, but in order to set the agreement in stone, we should yell the Code!
RUN-DOR: Code?
Ritch: For a Craftknight!
-A hammer is…
-… What’s wrong?
RUN-DOR: That we must yell was also stated during training, but I do not understand its logic.
Ritch: It’s to charge up your fighting spirit.
RUN-DOR: Fighting spirit…
Ritch: Yeah, see, it boils up from the stomach, and…
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Umm…
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Forget it. You can go back.
RUN-DOR: Affirmative.
Ritch: I’m sure the day will come when I’ll be able to hand down the fighting spirit to even that guy.

Night Zero - Ritch and Murno
Murno: Um… Good evening.
Ritch: Murno! What are you doing all the way out here?
Murno: W-well… because it looked like you had gone out, so…
Ritch: Oh, me? It’s just that after all that’s happened today, I figure I’d come out here to cool off.
-Is something wrong?
Murno: Ah, well… I just I wanted to thank you.
Ritch: Thank me?
Murno: Y-yeah. For when you saved me earlier today.
Ritch: For… no, it’s okay, I mean, something like that…
-If anything, I’m the one who never got around to apologizing…
Murno: Apologizing? What for?
Ritch: You know, this afternoon… look, I really didn’t do it on purpose, when I accidentally sm… smoo… smu-mu-mooshed your…
Murno: Ack!
-It’s fine, I'd already forgotten about that. It wasn't until you reminded me…
Ritch: Eh… but…
Murno: Um… I’m going back…
-(runs off)
Rich: Ah…
-How are you supposed to forget when you’ve got a good memory… I feel a little bit sad now…
Ritch: Murno! What are you doing all the way out here?
Murno: W-well… because it looked like you had gone out, so…
Ritch: Oh, me? It’s just that after all that’s happened today, I figure I’d come out here to cool off.
-Is something wrong?
Murno: Ah, well… I just I wanted to thank you.

Ritch's Prologue Part Nine
(Outside the house)
V.E: Did you finish preparing for the match?
Ritch:
-I’m all ready! >Fight
-Actually, there’s something I forgot… >Not Yet
-And then you’ll become a blacksmith’s assistant!
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Geez, this silent treatment is driving me nuts…
(Ritch and RUN-DOR fight)
Ritch: How’s that! Will you acknowledge I’ve got some merit after all?
RUN-DOR: If I had been able to switch to my adjacent Battle Mode, I would not have been defeated by you.
V.E: Still, a defeat is a defeat.
RUN-DOR: …
-(teary-eyed) Affirmative.
Ritch: Are… you crying…? Wow, how embarrassing…
RUN-DOR: Crying?
-Negative. My lens became dusty. I was merely cleaning it.
V.E: Washing your lens, huh… where do you keep the cleaning fluid?
Ritch: In any case, I’ve shown how strong I am! Therefore, I can protect Murno! And therefore you can become assist me in the forge!
-All right, RUN-DOR!
RUN-DOR: …
Murno: Please, RUN-DOR.
RUN-DOR: Understood.
Ritch: All right! Starting today, you are going to be my apprentice!
-(gets smacked over the head)
-Owwwie! What was that for?!
V.E: It’s a hundred years too soon for a half-baked novice like you to have an apprentice!
Ritch: Don’t call me half-baked!
V.E: Quiet, you! RUN-DOR is your associate. No, rather…
-RUN-DOR is your partner!
Ritch: Partner…
RUN-DOR: …
V.E: Got that, Ritch?
Ritch: Yes, ma’am!
V.E: How about you, RUN-DOR?
RUN-DOR: … Affirmative.
V.E: Remember those words! A Craftknight’s promise is stronger than steel. From today onwards, both of your training begins in earnest!
Ritch: Let’s do our best together, RUN-DOR.
RUN-DOR: Yes. Agreed.
(black screen)
That was how RUN-DOR and I began our training as Craftknights!
(Cut to introductory movie)
V.E: Hey, what’s with the dramatic pause? Quit posing already! You’re starting intensive training immediately!
Rif: Whaaat?! You mean now?!
V.E: What do you mean, ‘what?’ Thanks to this injury, I won’t be able to work, no matter how determined I am!
-Even if he’s only able to learn a little at a time, we need to train RUN-DOR as soon as possible! Without his help, we won’t be able to earn a living!
RUN-DOR: Your urgency originates from those circumstances?
V.E: I’ve got my eye on you! A million hammer swings!
Ritch: A mi…
Murno: A million hammer swings?
V.E: This is the only way to achieve such a huge goal in any decent amount of time! I want to see you both putting all your fighting spirit into it!
Ritch: Ju… just hold on a second!
V.E: And after that… In order to forge a good weapon, it is essential that partners have a close camaraderie.
-That is why, from today onwards, the two of you will be living together in the workshop.
Ritch: Whaaat?!
RUN-DOR: With… him…?
V.E: What are you complaining about? I said you’re partners, didn’t I? You need to deepen the bond between you as soon as possible.
V.E♡: I remember, Pike… with you, training every day was the sweetest toil… it made me feel as if I would burst into flames, so enchanted was I…
RUN-DOR: What occurred just now?
Ritch: Ah, well, she gets like this from time to time. You get used to it.
V.E: Hold on, RUN-DOR! As Ritch’s partner, you should refer to me as Master from now on!
-Got that? MA! STER!
RUN-DOR: A—affirmative.
V.E: Then the two of you should meet me in the workshop! Hop to it!
Ritch: Guess it can’t be helped. Let’s go, RUN-DOR.
RUN-DOR: Affirmative.
(Nighttime)
-Honestly, I was surprised to find out that I would have to live in the same room as RUN-DOR, but I was happy to finally have a partner.
-But I still don’t know why either him or Murno came to this village… and, well…
-That’s when I thought a walk might help me out…
Ritch: No matter how much I think about it, I still don’t get it. Maybe I should just head back home…
-(?)
-Hm? Is someone there? It couldn’t be…
V.E: Did you finish preparing for the match?
Ritch:
-I’m all ready! >Fight
-Actually, there’s something I forgot… >Not Yet
Not Yet
V.E: Hurry up.Fight
Ritch: All right, let’s do this! I’ll win and then get it into your head that I’ve got some merit of my own.-And then you’ll become a blacksmith’s assistant!
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Geez, this silent treatment is driving me nuts…
(Ritch and RUN-DOR fight)
Ritch: How’s that! Will you acknowledge I’ve got some merit after all?

Ritch's Prologue Part Eight
(Back at the house)
V.E: Weeell, let’s see if I’ve got this straight…
-Although he looks like this now, RUN-DOR here is the same Summon Creature that attacked me earlier.
Murno: When Summonite is so close to its raw form, you need skill in order to properly cast the summoning spell… That he was able to summon anything at all is pure good luck.
Ritch: Well I am pretty amazing, after all.
V.E: It’s nothing to be proud of! It’s thanks to your failure of a summoning that this turned into such a mess!
Ritch: Nn…
V.E: So you came inside looking for some food for Murno when I heard the crash.
Murno: But what I don’t understand is why you would hurt her…
RUN-DOR: Upon detecting her heightened battle prowess, I conjectured that if I did not strike first, I would be destroyed.
V.E: So that’s why.
Murno: I’m sorry… I only took my eyes off him for a second. If only…
-I’m really sorry. RUN-DOR, you should apologize, too.
RUN-DOR: Please excuse my actions.
V.E: If you just wanted something to eat, you should have just asked. You shouldn’t resort to burglary.
Murno: I’m sorry.
V.E: … You don’t have to keep apologizing. But considering how desperate your situation is, do you even have anything with you?
Murno: Well…
V.E: And what are you planning to do from here on out?
Murno: …
-First things first, to leave this village.
V.E: And where do you hope to go?
Murno: …
Ritch: Murno… maybe they don’t have anywhere to go…
V.E: I see.
-Then, how about you stay here?
Ritch: Master…!
Murno: That won’t work!
V.E: Why not?
Murno: That… If you get mixed up with me, it will only bring you misfortune…
V.E: It will bring misfortune?! I’ve already been injured, and thanks to that I won’t be able to work for quite a while.
-So by way of apology, why don’t you work as my assistant? How does that sound?
Murno: But what do you mean by ‘assistant?’
V.E: Nothing much. I’d just have you do some general housework. But RUN-DOR, on the other hand…
-Perhaps he could be Ritch’s blacksmith assistant?
Ritch: Mine? You mean he’d be working with me in the forge?
V.E: That’s right. You can forge weapons with a Summon Creature as part of your training to become a Craftknight.
RUN-DOR: Blacksmith assistant…
V.E: How does that sound, you two? You mind helping out around here?
Murno: Would that really be okay?
V.E: You sure do talk a lot! You’ll never get a guy to fall in love with you if you keep dancing around the answer. Just say yes or no!
Murno: Y-yes! Then… Please let us work for you!
V.E: All right! Then it’s settled! RUN-DOR, why don’t you…
RUN-DOR: I decline.
V.E: Huh?
RUN-DOR: My duty is to protect Lady Murno. Working as a blacksmith’s assistant will not fulfill that duty.
Ritch: It’ll be all right, because Murno will be with me!
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: What’s that look mean?
RUN-DOR: I conclude that you do not possess the capabilities to protect Lady Murno.
Ritch: What was that?! Did you just call me weak?!
RUN-DOR: Approximately.
Ritch: Oh yeah? Then let’s have a match! I’ll prove I’m not weak!
-If I win, that should prove I’m capable of protecting Murno, so you’ll have to work as a blacksmith’s assistant!
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Heeyy!
RUN-DOR: I decline.
Ritch: Why? Are you scared?
RUN-DOR: You would be wounded. Lady Murno would be unhappy.
Ritch: That’s a pretty interesting reason, saying you wouldn’t want me to lose…
-But I’m telling you now you’re mistaken! Come on, a match!
RUN-DOR: I decline.
Ritch: Shut up and fight me! You drill-head!
RUN-DOR: I decline.
Ritch: I’m not giving up, so just fight me!
RUN-DOR: I decline.
Ritch: Please fight me?
RUN-DOR: I decline.
Ritch: Pretty please… have a match with me…
RUN-DOR: I decline.
Ritch: You know, I’m not gonna give up…
V.E: At this rate, they’ll never stop.
-Heyyy, Murno. Can you ask him to take the match with Ritch? Please?
Murno: … I understand.
-RUN-DOR, please have a match with him.
RUN-DOR: Understood.
Ritch: You did it! Thank you, Murno!
V.E: Well, now that we’ve finished with the negotiations, how about we head outside?
-Who would have thought a simple summoning could result in such a serious contest between a human and Summon Creature?
(They exit)
V.E: Weeell, let’s see if I’ve got this straight…
-Although he looks like this now, RUN-DOR here is the same Summon Creature that attacked me earlier.
Murno: When Summonite is so close to its raw form, you need skill in order to properly cast the summoning spell… That he was able to summon anything at all is pure good luck.

Ritch's Prologue Part Seven
The two spike-haired dudes from the rival workshop are taking the girl away. Ritch is on the ground, weakened from being tag-teamed and beat up.
Ritch: Dammit! I can’t let it end like this!
-I have to help her! I have to… I must…!
(White light)
Protect her…!
Ritch: What on earth? That voice… did it come from the stone just now…?
//If you tried to “summon up” using the stone before, you get:
Ritch: But nothing happened when I tried to use it before!
//
-You need to call out my name…
-My name…!
Ritch: You name…? Tell me, what is it!
-My name is…!
Ritch: RUN-DOR!!
(A ball of white light appears)
Goon: What’s that?!
???: Stop it! The Summonite is too close its raw form! You won’t be able to handle it!
-Stop!
Ritch: Aaaauuugh!!!!
(RUN-DOR apppears)
????: You really… no way…
Ritch: That’s… the same Summon Creature from before!
RUN-DOR: System error. Mode change.
(RUN-DOR downgrades)
Ritch: He—he changed? Why?
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: Since when do you know how to summon…!
Ritch: Heh… Heheh… truth be told, I only figured out how to do it just now.
Goon: Don’t screw with me… Hey! You!
RUN-DOR: …
???: What happened, RUN-DOR? Are you okay?
RUN-DOR: …
-There was a system error. I could not execute the transformation command.
???: Maybe… he didn’t have enough skill to do the summoning after all? Have you broken down?
Ritch: He can break down?!
Goon: Ha! Broken down, huh! As to be expected of your Summon Creature!
RUN-DOR: Present mode is fully functional. There is no existing problem.
Goon: What was that?
RUN-DOR: Present mode is fully functional. There is no existing problem.
Goon: … Hey.
Ritch: What are you looking at?
Goon: What did that mean?
Ritch: Eh?
-I don’t know.
Goon: How can you not know? You’re the idiot who summoned it!
Ritch: Shut up! This is the only time I’ve ever done something this big! I just…
-Did it on instinct!
Goon: What’s that mean, on instinct?
RUN-DOR: … Internal retrieval in progress.
-…
Goon: … Hello?
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Heeyy!
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: What’s with this thing?! It really is broken!
RUN-DOR: Present mode is fully functional. There is no existing problem.
Ritch: Enough of that, already!
Goon: I wonder what we should do with the Summon Creature. Maybe I oughta smash it once and for all!
???: Stop it!
-(blocks their path)
Goon: Get outta the way!
-(punches Murno)
RUN-DOR: (annoyed) Lady Murno!!
Ritch: Murno?!
RUN-DOR: Code Red! System switching to Battle Mode!
Goon: Huhh?!
RUN-DOR: Danger to Lady Murno. Initiating removal of perpetrator!
(RUN-DOR attacks Goon; defeats him)
Goon: Damn…! This guy…!
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: Uh…
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: D-dammit! (runs off)
RUN-DOR: Situation terminated.
Ritch: You’re so strong! That was so cool!
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Heeyy…
Murno: I’m really glad, RUN-DOR.
Ritch: Eh? What’s that about?
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: I don’t really get it… but, it’s good that they’re finally gone.
Murno: Yeah… Um…
Ritch: Hm?
Murno: I—I’m really sorry…
Ritch: What are you apologizing for? Hey… it’s Murno, right?
-Ah! I’m Ritchburn. I’m a Craftknight! … Apprentice.
Murno: Craftknight?
Ritch: An expert of weapon craft and a master of the sword!
Murno: Oh.
Ritch: Anyway, I wanted you to tell me a few things… ah, that’s right!
-Does that mean that Summon Creature was yours the whole time?
Murno: … That’s right.
Rif: He attacked my master, and because of that now she’s hurt!
Murno: Is that true…?
RUN-DOR: Yes.
Murno: …
And guess who happens to pop in?
V.E: Ooh, Ritch. Who’re those kids with you?
Ritch: Master, I found the Summon Creature who attacked you.
V.E: Seriously? Where is he?
Ritch: Right here.
V.E: Huh?
RUN-DOR: …
V.E: HUH?
Ritch: Dammit! I can’t let it end like this!
-I have to help her! I have to… I must…!

Ritch: What are you looking at?
Goon: What did that mean?
Ritch: Eh?
-I don’t know.
Goon: How can you not know? You’re the idiot who summoned it!
Ritch: Shut up! This is the only time I’ve ever done something this big! I just…
-Did it on instinct!
Goon: What’s that mean, on instinct?
RUN-DOR: … Internal retrieval in progress.
-…
Goon: … Hello?
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Heeyy!
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: What’s with this thing?! It really is broken!
RUN-DOR: Present mode is fully functional. There is no existing problem.
Ritch: Enough of that, already!
Goon: I wonder what we should do with the Summon Creature. Maybe I oughta smash it once and for all!
???: Stop it!
-(blocks their path)
Goon: Get outta the way!
-(punches Murno)
RUN-DOR: (annoyed) Lady Murno!!
Ritch: Murno?!
RUN-DOR: Code Red! System switching to Battle Mode!
Goon: Huhh?!
RUN-DOR: Danger to Lady Murno. Initiating removal of perpetrator!
(RUN-DOR attacks Goon; defeats him)
Goon: Damn…! This guy…!
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: Uh…
RUN-DOR: …
Goon: D-dammit! (runs off)
RUN-DOR: Situation terminated.
Ritch: You’re so strong! That was so cool!
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: Heeyy…
Murno: I’m really glad, RUN-DOR.
Ritch: Eh? What’s that about?
RUN-DOR: …
Ritch: I don’t really get it… but, it’s good that they’re finally gone.
Murno: Yeah… Um…
Ritch: Hm?
Murno: I—I’m really sorry…
Ritch: What are you apologizing for? Hey… it’s Murno, right?
-Ah! I’m Ritchburn. I’m a Craftknight! … Apprentice.
Murno: Craftknight?
Ritch: An expert of weapon craft and a master of the sword!
Murno: Oh.
Ritch: Anyway, I wanted you to tell me a few things… ah, that’s right!
-Does that mean that Summon Creature was yours the whole time?
Murno: … That’s right.
Rif: He attacked my master, and because of that now she’s hurt!
Murno: Is that true…?
RUN-DOR: Yes.
Murno: …
And guess who happens to pop in?
V.E: Ooh, Ritch. Who’re those kids with you?
Ritch: Master, I found the Summon Creature who attacked you.
V.E: Seriously? Where is he?
Ritch: Right here.
V.E: Huh?
RUN-DOR: …
V.E: HUH?

Ritch's Prologue Part Five
//Since Ritch’s meeting with the mysterious kid is so different from Rif’s, he gets his own translation!//
(A flash of bright light)
Ritch: (!) What was that?! (looks around)
-Who’s there?! Come out now!
(Someone appears within the trees)
Ritch: Hurry and get out here!
???: …
Ritch: A kid… what are you doing here?
???: Nothing…
Ritch: I’m looking for a Summon Creature. Did you see one around here with a drill on his head?
???: N-no, I haven’t seen it…
Ritch: I know I saw him come this way. What are you doing here, anyway? Did you really not see anything?!
???: …
Ritch: What is it? What was that light just now? What’s really going on here?!
???: You…
Ritch: Hn?
???: You shouldn’t associate with me!
Ritch: Huh?!
-What do you mean?
???: You’re better off if you don’t associate with me, so just…
Ritch: (annoyed) What are you talking about? Explain yourself! That guy hurt my Master!
???: Hurt?! No, you’re lying…
Ritch: I’m not lying! So if you know anything, tell me! (grabs the kid)
???: Wait, stop… Ah!
(They fall down)
???: …!
Ritch: Just tell me what you know about that Summon Creature! Hey!
Shmoosh❤
Ritch: (?) What just smooshed?
-…
-Huh?
-(blushing) Is this… what I think it is…?
???: N…
nNYAAaa!!! (shoves Ritch off her, stands up)
(Ritch gets up slowly)
Ritch: Y-you’re a girl! Oh man, I’m sorry, I didn’t realize!
???: Creep…
Ritch: Hey, it’s not my fault! How am I supposed to tell you’re a girl when you don’t even look
like one?
(The kid starts to leave, but Ritch grabs hold of her)
Ritch: Hold up! You still haven’t told me anything!
???: Don’t come near me!
Ritch: Geez, calm down! It’s not like I’m getting close to you because I want to!
-So how about you don’t get close to me!
???: …! (slaps Ritch)
Ritch: That hurt…
???: You shouldn’t get yourself mixed up with me…. It would… it would only bring you misfortune…
Ritch: (Is she crying?)
(She runs off)
Ritch: Hey!
-(…)
-What was that… only bring me misfortune? What’s that supposed to mean?
-And my cheek still hurts…
-But it was just a slap, right? It’s fine, no problem!
