The Beginning After the End episode 11 recap
The episode opened with Arthur Leywin confronting Cynthia, the Xyrus Academy director, who wanted to ascertain whether Vincent's claims about the boy were true. Arthur realized he had to showcase a fraction of his powers to prove that Vincent wasn't lying. He commenced the battle with a wind magic, and followed it up with fire.
However, Cynthia's wind wall prevented Arthur's attacks from reaching her. That said, Arthur's efforts impressed Cynthia, and she knew that the boy hid more of his abilities. She also knew that Arthur wanted to say something to her. Indeed, the boy asked Cynthia to ensure his parents' safety with her power and influence, and in exchange, he would join her academy.
Although Cynthia was rather intrigued by this proposal, she accepted it nonetheless. However, Arthur said he would join the academy three years later, as he wanted to embark on a journey as an adventurer. Arthur wanted to explore the realm and felt that it was only possible as an adventurer.
He also proposed that idea to his parents, Alice and Reynolds. While Arthur's parents blatantly denied such thoughts, they eventually accepted Arthur's plea. Reynolds also suggested that Arthur should get a guardian for the journey. To that end, he summoned the Twin Horns party and asked Adam to become the boy's guardian.
However, Adam politely declined the offer because he thought he was unfit for such a role. Interestingly, Jasmine Flamesworth volunteered to become the boy's guardian, even though she disliked missions about protecting others. Jasmine said she would do it for Arthur. Once Arthur's guardian was decided, Alice and Reynolds thought they could rest easy.
Meanwhile, Arthur Leywin stopped by the Helstea Auction House to get a new sword for the Adventurer's Guild's admission test. After looking around for a long time, he found a shabby blade, sheathed in a black scabbard. Arthur inspected the scabbard and realized that it was a magic sword. In other words, it activated once Arthur poured his mana into it.
Interestingly, the blade's hilt and size changed according to Arthur's body proportions. As such, it turned out to be a fascinating find for the boy. A few days later, Arthur's parents, Vincent Helstea's family, and the Twin Horns people grandly celebrated Arthur's birthday.
The boy received many gifts from his loved ones, including a special gloves from his parents, and a ring from Vincent Helstea. The gloves had jewels imbued with Alice's healing spells, while the ring could inform Alice whenever Arthur's mana depleted to a certain level. Arthur also received a one-time message scroll from the Twin Horns.
Finally, the day came when Arthur had to leave as an adventurer. He bade an emotional goodbye to his parents and promised them that he would return occasionally. The episode ended with Arthur Leywin setting out on an exhilarating journey with Jasmine Flamesworth.
