ROLL OVER AND DIE: I Will Fight for an Ordinary Life with My Love and Cursed Sword! (「お前ごときが魔王に勝てると思うな」と勇者パーティを追放されたので、王都で気ままに暮らしたい)

Love it!

Yes, yes!

Cute!

Thank you very much.

This is a lovely design. But it feels like it's wasted on me.

You've got it all wrong.

I picked it out because it looks nice on you.

Besides...

We're just getting started.

We'll take these.

We'll take these.

We'll take these!

What? You bought all of that for me?

Sure did.

I'm sorry you had to spend so much money on me.

Master?

Like I said... When you're happy, I'm happy.

So stop worrying about all that—

Out of the way, you damn slaves.

Milkit.

Don't let it get to you, okay?

Outta my way!

What's wrong with you?!

It's those guys.

Dein's group from the guild.

Give my bag back!

Get back here!

Somebody stop them!

Watch our stuff, Milkit.

I will.

Thank you, cursed gauntlets. My body feels lighter.

Damn, it's that slave girl.

Take care'a that one, couldya?

RUN RUN RUN

"Couldya"?

Shit! The slave girl's still after me!

Hold it!

Gah!

Fireball!

Ah, didya take that one out?

Thank ye kindly!

The young girl in the white robe flashed a dazzling smile.

A nun from the Church of Origin?

SARA ANVILEN LIGHT 1,069

CORRUPTION PURITY

PURITY AND CORRUPTION

Leitch Mancathy?

Wait, like Shoppe Mancathy?

Thank you so much, truly.

It's my job as a nun to take out the bad guys.

Oh, I'm Sara Anvilen, from the Central church.

And you, miss?

I'm Flum, an adventurer in the West District.

This is Milkit.

I serve my master.

"Flum"? Where have I heard that name before?

I was thinkin' the same thing.

You're probably mistaken.

So, uh, I'd like to repay you two for helping me.

You don't have to.

Yup, I don't need nothin'.

And besides, these guys...

will probably reoffend soon.

Huh? Ya think?

I... I...

SPANK!!

How many times must I tell you not to sneak snacks?

I never make the same mistake after I've learned a painful lesson.

Sara...

Real bad guys don't learn even when they're punished.

Huh... That's real sad.

Anyway, let's call the guards.

In that case, I'll go get some friends o' mine.

Rawrs!

RUN RUN RUN

What a sweet, innocent girl.

Yes.

By the way, Flum.

Yes?

You mentioned you were an adventurer. If you don't mind...

Could you take a job request from me?

But I'm only F-Rank.

With the skills you demonstrated?

All the more reason to ask you, then.

If he's not going through the guild, it must be a request of dubious legality.

Please!

But he doesn't seem to be a bad guy.

I can you hear you out, at least.

My wife has fallen ill, you see.

In the past, illnesses and injuries were treated by medical practitioners.

Nowadays, priests and nuns use their healing magic to the same end.

However...

Have faith in the gods and wait for her to recover.

If your faith is strong, she will surely be saved.

There are illnesses and poisons that magic can't heal.

Some of them can be healed medicinally,

but the Church banned the formulation of herbal medicines,

claiming it defied Origin the Divine Creator's will.

I looked into some herbology tomes,

and I found that a medicine made from the kialahri flower may be able to treat her.

So that's why you asked me directly.

I'll reward you handsomely, of course.

I'd be helping someone, huh?

And cutting out the guild also cuts out their commission, which would be nice.

But if the Church catches wind of this...

I know how dangerous this request is. But she's my wife!

If she doesn't get the medicine soon,

she won't survive.

Very well. I'll take on your request.

You will?

Thank you so much!

Ed, Johnny, over there!

Ugh.

These guys are Dein's flunkies. He's gonna be mad at us again.

For us church knights, being resented by scoundrels is a badge of honor.

Quit complaining. Let's put them away.

Servants of the gods, permitted to wield rings of light...

They are church knights.

Thanks for the tip, Sara.

Hey! Stop that!

See ya, Sara.

Good luck with work!

By the way, Mr. Leitch.

Y-Yes?

Is somethin' troublin' ya?

Somethin' related to herbs, perhaps?

No. What made you think so?

Because I knew someone who had the same look and the same problem.

So I went and found the herbs they needed and handed 'em over.

You supplied them with herbs? Even though you're with the Church?

That don't matter.

If there's someone in need,

helpin' them is what the clergy does.

...helping them is what the clergy does, Sara.

Sister Maria taught me that.

She's an amazin' person who's off adventurin' with the heroes!

Maria...

If medicine can save folk that magic can't, why shouldn't we use it?

Oh, please don't tell anyone I said that, though.

I'll get in trouble if they find out.

I wanna help you, Mr. Leitch.

I reckon I can be of use, 'cuz there are lotsa books on herbs left in the church.

The church has books on herbs?

The thing is...

GUILD

Dein! Phil!

What? Grimmie and Quarante got arrested?

Damn that slave girl!

It's about time she got cut down to size.

Dolph! Bitley!

HOT CREAM STEW

Thanks for the food.

You're done?

I'm sorry. I don't have much of an appetite right now.

IN USE

She's an amazin' person who's off adventurin' with the heroes!

Thanks, Maria.

Think nothing of it. This is my job.

Don't. Healing her is a waste of your mana.

Forgive me.

Are you okay, Master? Are you feeling unwell?

Nah. I'm just a little down because I remembered someone from my old party.

Would that be this "Maria" person?

How'd you know?

Because your face clouded over when her name came up.

You got me. I was actually part of the heroes' party before all this.

Have you heard the name "Cyrill Sweechka"?

I have.

Eterna and Gadhio were there, too.

You'll find plenty of corpses on the battlefield.

It's common practice to help yourself to any good equipment they have.

But sometimes you find gear infused with the vengeful spirits of the dead.

We call that "cursed equipment."
