Guess what, the Goblin Slayer is finally socializing more and decides to go on a guy’s night out with the Spearman and Heavy Warrior.
Rhea shares her dream of making it big, and it ignites a flame within the other rookies as well.
After the guy’s night out, the trio gets a little personal, and they poke the Goblin Slayer regarding the guild girl, but he still seems to be pretty oblivious to it.
This episode features more character development as it probes into their dreams and aspirations.
The Heavy warrior shares his dream of becoming a king, but he acknowledges he has muscles and no brain.
However, he can’t give up going on adventures to study to become a better king, as leaving his party would cause trouble for them.
The spearman has dreams that sort of fit his archetype, as you might have guessed, he wants to be the best warrior to get ladies and flaunt his skills, at least these skills include slaying goblins.
Then we get to Goblin Slayer’s dream, he opens up and tells them that he wants to be a legend and leave an indelible mark in history as a legendary goblin slayer, save the world, and help others accomplish their dreams too.
Even our Wizard kid has dreams of saving everyone, but he still has a long way to go, as seen by the training between him and the Dwarf shaman.
The Priestess is ever so positive and is on the brink of promotion in rank and decides to go on an adventure with Rhea and others.
Even the High Elf Archer is progressing as he has received a letter from a noble fencer.
The part where the cow girl and Goblin Slayer have dinner together, the place where the training ground is situated, turns out to be their previous village.
