Spice and Wolf Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf Episode 10 brought us a lighter episode than the previous one. Let's review the details of episode 10.
Spice and Wolf Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf Episode 9 Summary
This episode is a heartbreaking one, as Lawrence and Holo find themselves in yet another difficult situation. Lawrence arrives in a new town with high hopes for his latest business venture, which he plans to sell a valuable suit of armor for a significant profit. However, his excitement caused him to overlook some important details.
The armor he bought was financed with a loan, meaning he needed to make a significant profit to repay the debt. Unfortunately, when he was about to sell the armor, he discovered something shocking: he had been scammed. The armor was worthless and the information he relied on was false. Lawrence is now in serious trouble with less than three days left to repay the loan.
Although he was a skilled businessman, Lawrence was not immune to mistakes. His confidence in his loan-based business strategy led him to ignore Holo's warnings about debt risks. Business is inherently risky and this time, Lawrence faces a severe failure instead of success.
At the end of the episode, Lawrence is clearly distraught, shocked by his betrayal and desperately searching for a miracle. His usual optimism was draining, replaced by a feeling of despair.
Spice and Wolf Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf Episode 10 Review and Recap
At the beginning of the episode, things look bad, as Lawrence is insulted when someone throws him some coins and threatens to return them as soon as possible.
Lawrence, being in an impossible situation, still collected the money and went on his way without saying a word. We then see him approach Holo with the money he collected. He wanted her to keep the money with her and try her luck with gambling. Thankfully, Holo finally realized how miserable and pitiful she was and opened up about what she had to say in the matter.
We all know that in the past, Holo also made some mistakes when forced to go with Lawrence, causing him to not be able to receive money. But Laurence is also rude to Holo and rudely brushes her hand away when she tries to comfort him. Since they are both adults, they both come to terms with their mistakes and appropriately ask for forgiveness. This shows how much their relationship has grown and evolved. Not only that, I also sense a potential romantic connection between these two as we see Holo desperately asking why Lawrence understands her actions so well and disappointed when he makes a question. unromantic answer.
She went as far as scolding him for not playing with her and even forced him to say the answer she wanted to hear. But this romantic moment is interrupted when Holo reveals the perfect plan that can help them escape their current problem. It is a very dangerous act and has the potential to make them enemies of the church for life, but if successful, they can return to a normal life.
However, that plan will require another plan. key member and that is Nora, the talented but misunderstood shepherd. Holo is banking on the fact that she feels betrayed by the church, which treats her like a heretic even while she works for them. Therefore, to take revenge on them, there is a high possibility that she will turn against them because money is involved. Now, whether she agrees to this plan or not, is something you will have to see for yourself.
Verdict
I liked this episode because we saw our couple's relationship grow significantly and saw them sort things out. Plus, Holo has come up with a very ingenious idea that is both plausible and dangerous, so seeing that idea come to fruition will be an exciting experience.
