Ep. 8: Takumi Chooses Wings of Nolyn and Fights Assassins on a Quest

King Lobos Barcula meets Takumi early, denying him a noble title to protect his identity from Sidonia. Elizabeth’s spies steal a sewer purification device, prompting an assassination attempt on Takumi in Bolton. Reyva joins the adventurer guild, prompting the need for a party name. Barack trains Takumi in combat. Meanwhile, Akane grows uneasy about the church’s intentions regarding herself, Akira, and Yamato. Takumi crafts a mythril and Treant wood staff for Reyva. He then accepts a four-day quest from Barack to escort a merchant to Kilbus Village to trade purification devices. Takumi enjoys familiar dairy products in Kilbus and learns about local rice cultivation. Nostalgic, he names the party Wings of Nolyn. Upon returning to Bolton, assassins attack with paralysis poison, but Takumi’s resistance skill and training allow him to defeat them effortlessly. Barack arrests the attackers and urges Takumi to report the incident to Marquis Godwin.
