Recap

Cain reads a magic text written by the first king, Yuuya Terra Hirasawa Esfort, who recounts his life in Japan and how he reincarnated into this world. While Cain is engrossed, Silk and Telestia interrupt, curious if he’s studying for the royal academy entrance exams. Cain dismisses their questions and excuses himself. Tifana approaches him, suggesting a mock duel, but Cain declines, citing other obligations. It’s his twelfth birthday, and he heads to the Royal Capital Guild Headquarters to register as an adventurer. There, a red-haired adventurer named Claude greets him, advising him to value his life and be cautious. At the front desk, Cain completes his registration with Retia but chooses not to include his noble title, assuming it irrelevant to adventuring.

As Cain prepares to leave, a group of men harasses Retia and confronts him when he intervenes. Despite their aggression, Cain dodges their attacks effortlessly. Before the situation escalates further, Claude steps in, revealing his strength and admonishing the men. He introduces himself as part of the Ice Flame party and commends Cain for his skills, even offering advice on adventuring and showing his A-rank card. Claude’s wife, Lina, interrupts, urging him to stop idling and complete their quest. Cain takes his first quest: defeating goblins in the eastern forest with no upper limit on the reward.

Outside the guild, Cain encounters Tifana and Daim. Hearing about his quest, Tifana insists on accompanying him, leaving Daim in charge of the knights’ training. As they venture into the forest, they find a destroyed carriage surrounded by goblins. Cain heals an injured man while Tifana fends off the goblins. When green lizards appear, Cain instructs Tifana to take the man to safety and defeats the creatures using Ice Pillar. Elsewhere, adventurers Nina and Millie stumble upon the aftermath of Cain’s battle and marvel at the destruction before heading home.

At the guild, Cain asks Retia if he can claim rewards for defeating the green lizards despite not taking their quest. Retia is astonished, as green lizards are typically part of D- and C-rank quests. When Cain reveals he defeated thirty, Retia alerts the chief, Cedric, who accuses Cain of fraud due to his G-rank and recent registration. Cedric threatens to revoke Cain’s guild card, dismissing Retia’s protests as abuse of authority. The commotion draws the guild master, who laughs off Cedric’s accusations. He introduces Tifana as his sister, shocking Cain and the others. The guild master reveals Cain’s noble status as a baron and son of Margrave Garm, prompting Cedric’s apology.
Tifana praises Cain’s strength, noting he defeated a red dragon at ten years old. The guild master decides to promote Cain to A-rank if he subjugates bandits, surprising Cain, who had just started as an adventurer. The gods, observing Cain, discuss the increasing commotion he causes and the necessity of his strength to face the impending danger of Aaron’s seal breaking. They agree to arrange special training for Cain under a skilled individual.

In the after-credits scene, Telestia and Silk excitedly plan a study date with Cain in the library, only to be interrupted by Tifana, who proposes a beach date. Jealous of Cain’s attention toward Tifana, Telestia and Silk scold him for declining their earlier invitations, demanding he grovel to make amends.
