At the beginning of the episode, Arthur and Jasmine go to the Xyrus branch of the adventurous guild. On site, the boy performs a test to receive a record as an adventurer and also to define his class. During the test, there is the appearance of two characters who receive prominence, Elijah, a boy who is related to the royal family of dwarfs, and Lucas, a half-allego living in Sapin. It is likely that the two in the future form a bond with Arthur, whether of friendship or enmity.
In addition, there is an intriguing event at the beginning of the chapter. Arthur and Jasmine realize that Sylvie can change their appearance. This information will be important throughout the narrative and probably explained in the future.
Arthur receives level B classification in his test
Arthur's test is interesting. Despite demonstrating his ability with the sword, the protagonist seems to hide part of his magic, as he only uses the fire element during the test. Kaspian Bladeheart, chief of the AA adventurers and a sorcerer's guild branch, conducts Arthur's test and is impressed with how the boy handles the sword. He even reflects that, at the moment, as it is still growing, Arthur's movements are clumsy. However, Kaspian adds that when the boy grows, he will be extremely skilled and scary.
Arthur's duel is marked by intense movements. The color of the fire is very alive and receives a remarkable highlight. Despite the use of static scenes, this fight explores a little more the movement of the characters than those that occurred in previous episodes, especially when Arthur uses the sword during the test.
After the exchange between young people of the three races, the Sapin Kingdom recognized elves and dwarfs as adventurers. This made you skillful young people, such as Luke and Elijah, could demonstrate their powers. Therefore, there are children receiving adventurer record and level B classification, as well as Arthur, in an amount never seen.
Arthur faces the first obstacle in his adventure
While traveling to their final destination, Arthur and Jasmine find a beast that begins to attack the village where they are. With that, they decide to try to defeat her. Arthur was ready to attack the creature, but receives advice from his past self, King Gray, to wait and act at the right time.
Although the boy defeats the beast, Jasmine advises him not to be so reckless. In addition, she says she has already fought as Arthur and did not understand how to cooperate with the group she was in, nor how to demonstrate to a companion she trusted him, but learned it from the twin horns. The episode, which has a more adventurous content, was one of the most pleasant to follow this first season. In addition, it is the first time that Arthur has shown his field skills without a mentor.
Although it still has a lot to change and improve, especially with regard to group work, it is clear that Arthur has evolved a lot since the first episode. The love he receives from his family and Sylvia, his journey with Thessia, his training with Viion, and now his adventure with Jasmine are experiences that contributed to Arthur's maturation and, above all, to the awakening of his empathy and humanity.
At the end of the episode, the anime reveals that Thessia is watching Arthur's journey through a magical globe. The elf is uncomfortable that the boy is traveling with a woman. However, Vionon interprets discontent as an envy for Arthur to take over a new challenge. So he advises the granddaughter to do the same and delivers a book that seems to be related to the Xyrus gym. With this, it is likely that in season two, Thessia will start her studies at Xyrus and find Arthur ahead of schedule.
