FunTranscript
00:00The story begins near a peaceful lake, where a young woman called Rin is fishing.
00:04Rin used to be a caregiver, but she later picked up acupuncture for her job.
00:09Eventually, she was summoned to another world through a saintess summoning ritual.
00:13This lively girl loves the great outdoors, so she is now exploring all the wildlife,
00:19scenery, and food this new world has to offer. While fishing, she gets a bite and starts to
00:24excitedly reel it in. To her surprise, the fish is actually a giant oni man.
00:28Rin is shocked by his appearance for a little bit, and then she celebrates her catch.
00:33However, she wonders if she can survive this fantasy world with all the weird things going
00:38around her. For the time being, she dries off the drenched man and lies him inside her tent to
00:44cool off. She then starts grilling some trout she caught from the lake. As the aroma of the tasty
00:49food wafts into the air, the young man in the tent catches a whiff of it. He instantly wakes up,
00:54his body screaming at him for food. Meanwhile, Rin enjoys her fish like it's the most delicious
01:00thing in the world. Since the trout she caught is a magical creature, its meat contains a sweet
01:05flavor that most normal fish and spices cannot match. After praising her own cooking, Rin wolfs
01:11down an entire skewer before realizing that the guy is standing right behind her. The poor guy feels
01:17too shy to ask a stranger for food, so Rin offers some on her own. He gladly accepts the food
01:23and starts
01:24eating, but some of the food gets stuck in his throat. Thankfully, Rin gives him a cup of barley
01:29tea to drink the food down. Although the man quickly drinks it to dislodge the food, he falls in love
01:34with the refreshing taste of the tea. The barley washes away the fish's oil and flavor, leaving his
01:40taste buds refreshed for another round. Rin nods, appreciating his recognition of her cooking choices.
01:46She asks him if he's ready to try another batch of fish, so he nods and starts eating. Rin notices
01:52that her grill is now empty, so she puts another chunk of fish to cook on it. Once both of
01:57them
01:57finish eating, the young man thanks Rin for her help and introduces himself as Vil. He explains that
02:03he's an adventurer from the town of Elridge. Rin wonders how Vil ended up in the river, so he
02:08explains that he got hurt on a solo quest. A little while ago, he was bathing near a river when
02:14some
02:14monsters stole all his belongings. Although Vil was able to recover his equipment, the monster had already
02:20eaten his emergency food. Angered by this, he tried to climb up a tree to grab some fruit. Unfortunately,
02:27he lost his balance and fell into a river before washing up in the lake. Surprised by his carelessness,
02:33Rin wonders how he survived the water. Vil reveals that his species is draghole, which is known for
02:38being tough. Unfortunately, the draghole cannot live on an empty stomach, so they sometimes make stupid
02:44decisions for the sake of food. Rin laughs at his joke, but Vil wonders why she's being so carefree
02:50around him. He reminds her that she's trusting a completely random man in the middle of nowhere.
02:56Vil thinks that she's being too careless, and Rin agrees with his concerns. However, she explains that
03:01she has a skill that helps her detect a person's trustworthiness. In addition, she thinks that he is a
03:07good person in general. Vil is surprised how she made that deduction even though they've just met.
03:12Rin reveals that she first interacted with him when she pulled him out of the lake. As she dragged him
03:18back to her tent, he woke up for a second and noticed that her clothes got wet and dirty. To
03:23help
03:23her, he cast a magic spell that quickly dried her off before he passed out again. After seeing his
03:29concern, Rin decided that he was a good person. Vil is shocked that she began trusting him so easily,
03:35but Rin ignores it and asks him how he can use magic. Feeling embarrassed by her eager gaze,
03:40he acts like it's normal for the people of his world to know small magic spells. Hearing this,
03:46Rin reveals that she's from another world, so she's very interested in all magic spells. Vil doesn't
03:52understand how she came here from another world, so she tells him about the Saintess summoning.
03:57Vil recalls an old legend. His grandfather once told him that the Saintess was a legendary heroine
04:02summoned from another world, destined to defeat all the monsters and bring peace to their world.
04:07Of course, both of them think that it's just a grand myth. In reality, Rin was simply going about
04:13her day back on Earth when a random pit appeared beneath her feet. When she fell into the pit,
04:19she entered a royal palace in the New World, where the mages had summoned her. Aside from Rin,
04:24there was another high school girl who was summoned from Earth. A prince-looking guy immediately fell for
04:29the other girl's beauty and called her the legendary Saintess. Then, he screamed at Rin for having a
04:35worthless skill, and an imperial mage used a spell to teleport her to this lake. After she was
04:40teleported, Rin used the new skills she had gotten upon entering the New World to fish and survive
04:46until she met Vil. Vil feels angry that the prince coldly threw her out into the wilderness after
04:52forcefully summoning her from another world. Rin doesn't care too much, so Vil takes a look at her
04:57equipment. He admits that her fancy camping gear definitely looks otherworldly, which pleases Rin.
05:03Vil then wonders if she's feeling okay since she got wrenched away from her homeland and family.
05:08Rin smiles, pleased by his concern. Although she would normally be very worried in an unfamiliar
05:14environment, she has gained a new skill called Survival in the New World. This skill allows her
05:19to adapt to any environment she's in and helps her stay physically and mentally calm. Also,
05:25the Survival skill allows her to detect danger, so Rin feels quite relaxed in this unfamiliar
05:30environment. Hearing this, Vil is shocked, since her ability is a godsend for adventurers. He wonders
05:36why the prince thought it was worthless, so Rin thinks he probably expected something flashy for
05:42the legendary saintess. Then, she also points out that she has a more shocking skill. Before Rin can
05:47display it, Vil's stomach growls from hunger, so he requests some more food from her. Vil is surprised
05:53that she can cook, but Rin claims that she's only a hobby chef. Then, she wonders if she should reveal
05:59her entire kitchen to him. Since Vil has been trustworthy so far, she decides to show him. After
06:05raising her hand, she chants a command, which causes an entire van to appear out of thin air.
06:10Rin explains that her special skill keeps the van hidden unless she decides to show it to someone
06:15she trusts. She then enters the van's door, which contains a strange dimensional portal. Vil follows her
06:21into the portal, and is speechless to see an entire living space inside, unable to process this insane
06:28sight. He quickly leaves the van, thinking it's some kind of black magic. He then enters it again,
06:33but feels just as shocked as before. Rin explains that the van uses a spatial magic technique, giving it
06:39an infinite storage space for whatever she wants. She also shows him a fridge stocked with food,
06:45explaining that it magically restocks whatever she takes from it. Vil wonders how the van can produce
06:50infinite food. So Rin explains that it converts surrounding mana into usable resources. She
06:56explains that aside from the fridge, her sink can also produce infinite water using mana. And her
07:02toilet easily disposes of all the waste by converting it into mana as well. Hearing these absurd abilities,
07:08Vil points out that her truck is an overpowered fortress. Since their world is filled with practically
07:14infinite mana, Rin's truck can literally support an entire family with infinite supplies and storage.
07:20She smiles, saying she has no plans of world domination yet. Vil wonders how the royal family
07:26could ignore her op spell. Rin tells him that the van can only be used outdoors, so they probably
07:31didn't detect it. Then, she gets up to prepare dinner. Vil doesn't know how to cook, so he goes
07:36out to scout their surroundings for any monsters. Later, Vil returns from his patrol with some meat from an
07:43Al-Miraj monster. Rin recalls seeing one before, feeling surprised that it has edible meat. She thanks him for the
07:49help, so Vil smiles in return. Although Rin instantly gets rizzed by him, she recovers from her shock and
07:56serves dinner. Since she made a full table of complicated recipes from Earth, Vil thinks he's
08:01being treated to a gourmet feast. He wonders if it's okay to eat such luxurious food for free,
08:07so Rin encourages him to go ahead. Both of them sit down and begin eating, and Rin starts with a
08:13risotto.
08:13She enjoys the rice dish made with milk trout, then moves on to the other dishes made with the Al
08:19-Miraj meat.
08:20Meanwhile, Vil starts trembling after taking just one bite. Rin wonders if he dislikes the food, but Vil is simply
08:27too shocked to process the food's amazing flavor. Once he recovers, he wolfs down all the food and asks Rin
08:33for
08:34seconds. After dinner, Vil asks Rin if she was a chef in her previous world. She reminds him that she
08:40was just a
08:40hobby chef. However, he thinks she should be proud of herself. In his world, people eat simpler food,
08:46so most of them can't make the incredible dishes she whips up so effortlessly. He asks Rin what she
08:52plans to do after getting out of the wilderness, so she admits that she doesn't have a clue yet.
08:58With her survival skills, she doesn't mind hanging out in the outdoors while figuring out a plan.
09:03Vil reminds her that she can't get into any towns without an ID. His words bring her back to reality,
09:09and she realizes she can't go wandering around forever. Vil asks if she wants to join his party.
09:14He explains that all of his party members are horrible cooks, so they get depressed any time
09:20they need to eat outdoors. With a dedicated chef on their side, he thinks his entire party will
09:25receive a huge boost in morale and performance. After making his offer, Vil leaves, and Rin goes to bed
09:32in her van. She thinks about his words and the way he said them with such intensity,
09:36and her maiden heart starts beating faster. Vil also reassured her that his party has both men
09:42and women, so she wouldn't have to worry about getting harassed. Knowing she has nowhere else to
09:47go, Rin decides to accept his offer the next day. Vil thanks her for her trust and suggests going back
09:53to his hometown. However, Rin asks him for some time to gather herbs in the wilderness. She explains
09:59that the nearby forests contain valuable parsley, so Vil agrees to help her gather it. On their way,
10:05she asks him what his party is like. Vil explains that his party is called Smorgasbord, and they
10:10have a magic and alchemy specialist called Ed. Aside from him, they have Aria, who is an
10:16arachn capable of wielding spider webs. Lastly, their final member is an elf priest called Zenon.
10:22As Rin hears all these names and races, she imagines an idealized fantasy version of these people.
10:28In the middle of her excitement, she detects some juicy berries nearby with her survival skill.
10:33She rushes to pick them, but a flock of crows suddenly flies out from the berry tree.
10:38With her guard lowered, Rin fails to realize in time that these crows are dangerous monsters.
10:44As the birds rush towards her, she is unable to react in time. Thankfully, Vil protects her
10:49and defeats the crows with a single slash of his sword. Rin is too stunned to react at first,
10:55but then she quickly thanks Vil and apologizes for giving him trouble with her carelessness.
11:00He smiles, reassuring her that his party will take good care of her from now on.
11:05While Rin struggles to recover from his blinding charisma, Vil points her to some loot dropped by
11:10the defeated monsters. They gather the loot and grab Rin's spices before getting in her van to drive
11:16to town. Vil is surprised the giant metal van can move so quickly. He points out that at their current
11:22speed, they can reach his hometown in just three hours, far surpassing the speed of even the fastest
11:27carriages in their world. Rin is also concerned because her van has a masking function, meaning
11:33people cannot detect it. So she worries about accidentally hitting someone. Vil explains that
11:38there's a shortcut to town through the mountains. Rin takes the shortcut since her van is built for
11:43outdoor driving. Suddenly, she stops as her survival skill alerts her to a monster up ahead.
11:49In front of them, a massive monster called a firebear steps out and roars loudly. Vil is surprised,
11:55since the firebear is a dangerous monster usually absent from these parts. Suddenly, a young woman
12:01captures the bear with silk threads, but it easily breaks free. Nearby, a red-headed man screams at the
12:07bear for hurting his wife, watching both of them from a distance. An elven man teases the man for being
12:13so overprotective, since the bear only broke his wife's silk threads. Vil recognizes these three people
12:19as Aria, Ed, and Zenon. Rin feels worried about his teammates, but Vil confidently steps out of the van,
12:26ready to show her what his party is made of. He steps in and forces the bear off. Zenon smiles,
12:32pleased by his teammates' sudden arrival. Ed and Aria also smile, happy to see him back.
12:38Unfortunately, they don't get time for a cheerful reunion with the furious firebear staring right at them,
12:43as Vil reminds everyone to get ready for the attack. Rin watches the standoff from the safety of her van,
12:49Excited to see how a real adventurer party fights, the bear makes the first move, releasing several fireballs
12:55towards Ed. He easily blocks them with an ice wall spell, then starts taunting the bear. Suddenly,
13:01he realizes that one of the bear's attacks caused a massive tree to fly down at him. Although Ed has
13:07no time
13:08to react, Aria breaks the tree with her spider webs. She scolds him for getting cocky, but Ed just enjoys
13:14receiving his wife's attention. Watching the couple fight, Zenon knows that Ed will
13:19keep fooling around to score more points with Aria, so he tells Vil to get serious and finish the bear
13:25off. He nods and lunges towards the bear, slicing it in half with just one slash. Vil thinks the bear
13:31died too easily, and Zenon also knows that Ed was fooling around with his spells, so nobody was in
13:37real danger. Suddenly, Ed comes over, his voice panicked as if it's an emergency. He shows Aria to
13:43Zenon, explaining that she got a minor scratch from the fight. While Ed thinks even the tiniest scratch
13:49on his precious wife's body is the end of the world, Zenon sighs at his cringeworthy attitude.
13:54Still, he casts a healing spell to remove the scratch. Once everyone has calmed down, Vil asks his
14:01party why they were hanging out in this area. They explain that they were simply looking to gather
14:06resources. On their way, they encountered a rookie party struggling to handle the powerful firebear,
14:11so they stopped by to defeat it. Vil nods, but he points out that monsters so strong should not be
14:17wandering a beginner area. Zenon agrees, suggesting that they report this unusual encounter to the
14:23adventurer's guild. Ed asks Vil how he found them, so he calls Rin over. Out of nowhere, she pops out
14:29of her camper van. Although Vil can see the camper, the rest of his party members are not authorized by
14:35Rin's camping skill, so her van is completely invisible to them. Because of this, they literally see her
14:41jumping out into reality. Rin doesn't realize how shocking her entrance was. Instead, she starts
14:47fangirling over all of the adventurers and their skills. Confused, they all ask Vil who she is and
14:53how she appeared out of thin air. Vil ignores their last question and explains that Rin is a friend who
14:59has agreed to be their porter and cook. Hearing this, all of them are shocked, since good food is the
15:04biggest luxury in the world for them. Excited, Aria holds Rin's hand and asks if she really can make
15:10good food. While she is excited for a different reason, Rin feels nervous being around such a
15:15beautiful woman. Ed also steps in, wondering if Aria can cook meat. She nods, so Zenon thanks God that
15:22they've finally found their salvation. Seeing everyone's reactions, Vil starts laughing and asks Rin if she
15:28finally understands the value of a real chef in their world. She laughs nervously, then offers to
15:34make a meal for everyone since they're all so excited. She wonders what to make, then decides to
15:39cook some of the meat she got from the dark crows. Hearing the sound of meat, the malnourished party
15:44members all start foaming at the mouth. Rin enters her van to prepare the ingredients and takes out the
15:50crow meat. Back when she was ambushed, she didn't pay too much attention, but her survival skills told her
15:56that the dangerous birds had delicious meat. Now, with the tender meat in front of her, she agrees
16:01with the skill and looks forward to the final result. She decides to add soy sauce, cumin, sugar,
16:07and coriander to make a simple teriyaki-flavored meat skewer. After adding the seasoning, she brings
16:13the meat out of her van to cook on the grill. As she puts the meat chunks on a skewer,
16:17she notices
16:18everyone else staring at her. Rin feels confused, so Vil explains that the other party members still can't
16:24see her camper van, so it looks like she's warping in and out of reality each time she goes inside
16:30it.
16:30Rin finally understands and wonders if she should authorize the rest of the gang to see her van.
16:36However, Vil tells her to keep it a secret just a little while longer to continue teasing them.
16:41After some time, the first meat skewers are ready on the grill. Although Rin loves this simple skewer
16:46recipe, she feels nervous, wondering if these otherworldly party members will like it as well.
16:52She is completely unaware that this simple skewer looks like a five-star meal to these poor beggars,
16:58who can barely cook charcoal at most. Finally, the food is served, and everyone falls in love with
17:03it the moment they take a bite. Watching them eat, even Rin feels surprised by how much they like her
17:09food. Feeling pleased, she smiles and tells them to eat as much as they want. Afterward, she asks them
17:15how the food tasted. As everyone remains silent, Aria is the first to walk towards Rin. Suddenly,
17:20she pulls her into a hug and professes her eternal love towards her. Wrapped in the pretty lady's arms,
17:27Rin feels like she's going to melt. Seeing his wife so close to her, Ed gets jealous and pushes her
17:32away. Then, he also starts fawning over her amazing food. Zenon also praises Rin's cooking,
17:38so she accepts his praise and hopes they'll enjoy the rest of her food from now on. Once everyone is
17:44settled, Vil thinks it's time to head home to Elridge. To begin their journey, Rin authorizes the rest of
17:50the party to see her van. Seeing the strange metal box pop out of thin air, they are once again
17:56left
17:56speechless. Rin smiles and welcomes them inside. Soon, they start moving towards the city. As the
18:02other party members sit in the car, they feel fascinated by its incredible speed. After learning
18:07that it runs on Mana, Ed thinks it must require a large amount of powerful magic formations just to
18:13sustain the car's fuel consumption. Hearing how complex her technology is, Rin feels glad that she has
18:20kept it hidden from most people. Vil nods, but he admits that he has reported her Saintess
18:25summoning to the Adventurer's Guild. He explains that the Saintess summoning could put his country
18:30at risk, so Rin wonders what he means. Vil reveals that they're currently in a country called Riesvelt.
18:36Their country is a peaceful island nation, so they never needed to summon a Saintess to defeat
18:41surrounding monsters. Long ago, in their world, the human race was extremely dominant,
18:46to the point of discriminating against all other races. To combat this, the other races banded
18:52together and escaped to this island country. Aside from the non-humans who emigrated, many kind
18:57humans, who believe in peace and equity, also joined their nation. The native non-humans happily
19:03welcomed the good humans, and over time, the island nation started thriving and became self-sufficient.
19:09Unfortunately, because of their past bad blood with the outsider humans, citizens of Riesvelt still
19:15remain wary of them, to prevent any Saintesses with ill intentions from entering their nation.
19:20Vil reported Rin's appearance to the Elridge Guildmaster, since Elridge is the country's
19:25harbor city. After hearing this, Rin doesn't feel threatened, since she trusts Vil. Instead,
19:31she gets excited to experience exotic Elrajan seafood. Vil laughs at her reaction, then points
19:36out that they have already reached the city. As Rin looks ahead, she marvels at the size of the
19:41giant city walls. Then, she parks her van in a safe spot and lets everyone step outside.
19:47They enter the city on foot, where Rin starts beaming at the fantasy atmosphere. Vil tells
19:52everyone that he'll help Rin register at the guild, so Zenon decides to make preparations to welcome
19:58her into their home. Not wanting to lose their precious cook to another party, Ed warns Vil to keep
20:04a close eye on Rin. Arya hugs her, wishing her a safe journey, which only causes her husband to turn
20:10feral from jealousy. Later, in the Adventures Guild, a cobbled receptionist, Sheila, greets both Vil and
20:16Rin. Rin immediately melts at her cuteness, wondering what kind of creature she is. Vil explains
20:22that he's here to register a new party member, so Sheila brings out a registration form. Then,
20:28she notices Rin fuming from cuteness overload. Vil tells Rin to behave, since Sheila is a grown adult,
20:34but the Sheila doesn't mind being called cute. Afterward, Sheila stamps Rin's form, declaring her
20:40an official member of Team Smorgasbord. Reading the text on the form, Rin learns that her Japanese
20:46writing automatically turns into the world's native language. She can also read the native language,
20:51but it makes her feel strange. Sheila congratulates Rin and wishes her good luck. Vil nods before taking
20:57Rin to meet the guild master, Tori. As they sit down, Rin formally introduces herself and asks for his
21:04guidance. Seeing her respectful behavior, Tori is unable to believe that Vil actually found a normal
21:10person. Vil scoffs, saying that he verified Rin's background before recruiting her, so he shouldn't
21:16doubt her identity. Tori apologizes for his words, saying he didn't mean any harm. Then, he returns
21:22Rin's greeting. Earlier, Vil had sent Tori an emergency message, so he thought something bad had
21:27happened. Now, faced with the innocent Rin, he doesn't think that the harmless saintess from a fairy tale
21:33was worth the anxiety. He asks Rin how she entered this world, so she recounts her entire story.
21:39Although she claims that she was summoned from another world, Tori doesn't believe it at first.
21:44He asks to check Rin's status to see her special skill, but Vil warns him to stay away. Tori reassures
21:50him that he doesn't have any bad intentions, so Rin agrees to show him, as long as he doesn't learn
21:56any private information about her. He smiles, explaining that most status magic is not nearly advanced enough
22:03to detect everything about a person. Hearing this, Rin is surprised, since her survival skill is
22:08capable of detecting even a person's trustworthiness. Now, she feels a little safer after learning that
22:14other people can't just x-ray her abilities and discover her secrets. Soon, Tori finishes scanning
22:21her skills. He explains that she has the Outlander class, which is given to people from outside their
22:26world. According to legends, Outlanders can inherit a special class alongside a random extra skill.
22:33Hearing this, Rin finally understands that her special class is Traveler, and Campy the Van is
22:39her special skill. However, Vil feels dissatisfied with Tori's explanation. He wonders why he's so
22:45skeptical of his abilities, so Tori reminds him that the saintess summoning is still an unconfirmed legend.
22:51Then, Vil wonders why the foreign humans would resort to summoning a saintess. He wonders if they're
22:56truly facing an incredible crisis that requires overpowered skills. Tori reveals that he has not
23:02received any news of a global crisis, so it's unclear what the human kingdom's motives are.
23:08However, he thinks that Vil's earlier encounter with the fire bear might be a clue. Usually,
23:13monsters never appear in their beginner areas, so perhaps this phenomenon is related to the crisis
23:19faced by the humans. Also, Tori notes that the fire bear seemed much weaker than usual to Vil's party.
23:25All of these strange signs feel suspicious, so he tells Vil to tighten security around
23:30Elridge with his party. After thinking about it, Vil agrees to do it for the sake of everyone's
23:35security, realizing that she joined a prestigious party worthy of the guild master's attention.
23:40Rin feels happy. Later, they return to Smorgasbord's main home, although everyone tries to give Rin a
23:46warm welcome. Their growling stomachs ruin the moment. Rin smiles, more than happy to cook them
23:52another nice dinner. This time, she goes way beyond the simple meat skewers. She soddies mushrooms,
23:57cooks rice in a rice cooker, and marinades a generous amount of meat in a special spice blend.
24:03In the end, she makes a delicious mushroom and rice meat dish, some creamy omelets, and a big
24:08serving of stir-fried meat. Rin starts to explain all her dishes to the waiting foodies, but they all
24:14remain silent, staring at the food. To these simple folk, even her creamy omelet looks like it was made by
24:20Gordon Ramsay himself. Itching to dig in, they ask Rin for permission to eat. She immediately allows
24:26them to do so, so they all start eating. Every person at the table instantly ascends to heaven
24:32from the incredible taste. Vil realizes that the stir-fry would taste even better paired with some
24:37rice, so Ed gets ready to fetch a bag on the spot. Arya and Xenon also prepare to assist with
24:43the food,
24:44so Rin asks them to calm down. She reminds them that there's lots of food currently left,
24:49so they should eat it first before fetching more. They all agree to finish it first,
24:54so she smiles and watches them eat away. That was the second episode.
