2. Recap of Episode 11 of The Beginning After The End
The latest episode of The Beginning After The End started with Arthur meeting the director of Xyurus Academy, Cynthia. The previous episode did not go into much detail about this, but Vincent had already contacted the director of Xyrus Academy and glazed Arthur’s abilities. Cynthia set up a meeting with Arthur to see if Vincent was exaggerating. Arthur knew this woman was powerful enough to be able to protect everything she wanted to, and knew she was one person whom he needed to impress.
The battle between the two started, and Arthur went all out from the beginning and opened with an attack of the wind attribute. Cynthia easily defended herself using earth magic. Arthur then followed up with an attack of flame magic, which was also deflected by the woman. Arthur finally augmented his body with magic and went in to attack, only to get instantly defeated by the woman. Cynthia then used a final spell, which was actually sound magic strong enough to make any person lose consciousness.
Arthur managed to withstand Cynthia’s attack, and she acknowledged his skills. She then asked Arthur to reveal what he wanted from her, and Arthur told her that he wanted Cynthia to look after his family in exchange for his enrollment in the academy. Cynthia was shocked to see how demanding Arthur was given his position, but Arthur argued, saying that he believed he had enough potential to be making such demands. Additionally, he also emphasised that he would only join the academy three years later, after he had adventured in the world.
She yielded to his demands, and Arthur went back home to convince his parents about his adventure plans, only to find that Vincent had already told them about it. Alice was completely opposed to this idea, and Reynolds was trying to convince his wife to let Arthur venture into the world. Alice finally caved after receiving all the reassurance she needed to let Arthur leave.
Reynolds then approached his allies of the Twin Horns party and asked them whether one of them would be willing to accompany Arthur on his journey, and Jasmine volunteered, and everyone accepted this as being an augmenter; she would be the best person for Arthur to travel with. After this decision was made, Arthur happily spent the remaining of his days with his family and the Helstea family.
The episode ended with the celebration of Arthur’s 9th birthday, during which many of his well-wishers gave him many gifts, most of which were magic devices that his parents could use to confirm his well-being. After saying his goodbyes, Arthur departed his home along with Sylvie and Jasmine to start his new Adventurer life.
3. Speculation of Episode 12 of The Beginning After The End
The upcoming episode of The Beginning After The End will feature Arthur and Jasmine starting their journey together. Everyone already knows that Arthur is probably the only person Jasmine really likes, so this duo is probably for the best.
We do not know much about what to expect in the upcoming episode, as the ending was kind of blunt, and there was no post-credit scene to keep us hyped, which is likely because there is nothing much to be all hyped about. The next episode will likely show Arthur and Jasmine walking a lot, and if we’re lucky, we may be able to learn a bit more about the new sword Arthur had picked up.
