**[00:06] Sosuke**
Don't overdo it.
**[00:07] Sara**
I know!
**[00:11] Sara**
Hup!
**[00:15] Sara**
Say, Sosuke.

**[00:19] Sosuke**
A skateboard?
**[00:20] Sara**
Indeed. I want to use it when we go
shopping or I go to the library.

**[00:26] (Flashback) Sosuke**
I see. Wonder if I still have my old one...
**[00:31] (Flashback) Sara**
Do you?!
**[00:34] Sosuke**
Hey, whoa!
**[00:38] Sosuke**
Man, that was close...
**[00:42] Sara**
Wha?!
**[00:45] Sara**
Ow, ow, ow...
**[00:46] Sosuke**
Listen, I gotta ask. Are you just shit?
**[00:49] Sara**
What did you call me?!
**[00:51] Sara**
You'd compare me to feces?!
**[00:53] Sara**
You needn't insult me so
just because I'm having trouble!
**[00:56] Sosuke**
I didn't mean it literally.
I'm saying you're shit at sports.
**[00:59] Sosuke**
Use your damn translation magic.
**[01:01] Neya**
Senpai!
**[01:03] Neya**
Hello there. Oh, and who's this?
**[02:38] Sara**
My name is Sara da Odin.
**[02:40] Sara**
I'm a transfer student from Öland in Sweden.
**[02:44] Sara**
...And that's my story.
**[02:45] Neya**
My, you've been through so much.
**[02:48] Neya**
My name is Haruka Neya.
**[02:48] Sign**

Haruka Neya
**[02:50] Neya**
I was Sosuke-senpai's junior
when he worked at our agency.
**[02:54] Sara**
Your agency?
**[02:56] Neya**
Kusanagi Detective Agency, the largest
of its kind in Gifu Prefecture.
**[03:01] Sara**
You actually worked somewhere
so prestigious?
**[03:05] Sosuke**
That's all in the past.
**[03:07] Neya**
Well, it wasn't too long ago
that you went independent.
**[03:11] Neya**
He was just the coolest when he quit.
**[03:15] (Flashback) Sosuke**
"I'm going to become
the detective I want to be!"
**[03:18] Neya**
...he said.
**[03:19] Sara**
Ooh! That is indeed quite cool!
**[03:22] Sosuke**
Yeah, let's not talk about that.
**[03:24] Sosuke**
More importantly, what did you need me for?
**[03:27] Neya**
Do I need a reason to come see you, Senpai?
**[03:34] Neya**
We couldn't settle on a price
with a client who came in today,
**[03:39] Neya**
so I recommended you to her, Senpai.
**[03:42] Sosuke**
What kind of job is it?
**[03:43] Neya**
She wanted us to look into some bullying.
**[03:45] Neya**
She's worried that her middle-schooler daughter
is being targeted.
**[03:50] Sosuke**
I see...
**[03:51] Sara**
Why in the world would you do
a competing agency such a favor?
**[03:55] Neya**
Well, because I wish Senpai
the best, of course!
**[04:00] Neya**
Our president is cheering him on, too.
**[04:03] Sosuke**
I feel even more pathetic
if *he's* rooting for me.
**[04:08] Neya**
Speaking of, the police called
him in the other day.
**[04:12] Sosuke**
Did something happen?
**[04:14] Neya**
A certain hostess club with extra services
**[04:16] Neya**
got busted and he just
so happened to be there.
**[04:19] Sosuke**
Again? Man, he's hopeless.
**[04:22] Neya**
Well, he was there for work.
**[04:25] Sara**
Pray tell, what are these
"extra services" you mentioned?
**[04:27] Neya**
You definitely don't need to know
until you're older, Sara-chan.
**[04:32] Neya**
Anyway, Senpai, I'll be heading back now.
**[04:35] Sosuke**
Sure.
**[04:36] Neya**
Goodbye, Sara-chan.
**[04:37] Sara**
Farewell.
**[04:38] Neya**
I'm glad I got to see you today, Senpai.
**[04:43] Sosuke**
Y-Yeah.
**[04:43] Sosuke**
Y-Yeah.
**[04:46] Sara**
Say, Sosuke...
**[04:48] Sosuke**
What is it?
**[04:49] Sara**
I have a feeling that Neya fancies you—
**[04:53] Sosuke**
She doesn't.
**[04:54] Sara**
No, I'm quite certain, considering
how she was acting around you.
**[04:58] Sara**
She was positively overflowing with affection.
**[05:02] Sosuke**
That's just Neya's schtick.
**[05:05] Sara**
What now?
**[05:06] Sosuke**
She always, very consciously, plays
the role of the prim and proper young lady
**[05:12] Sosuke**
who seems to fancy you.
**[05:14] Sara**
Why would she comport herself so?
**[05:16] Sosuke**
It's all training.
**[05:18] Sosuke**
She's Kusanagi Detective Agency's
leading undercover agent
**[05:21] Sosuke**
when it comes to breaking up couples.
**[05:22] Sara**
Say what now?
**[05:24] Sosuke**
It's literally her job to go undercover
and break up couples, married or otherwise.
**[05:29] Sosuke**
Like splitting up a cheater and their lover.
**[05:32] Sosuke**
Sometimes parents don't like
who their kid is dating.
**[05:35] Sosuke**
Or someone wants a divorce
but their spouse is untouchable.
**[05:38] Sara**
Infidelity is one thing, but no one did
anything wrong in those other situations,
**[05:43] Sara**
so that doesn't sit well with me.
**[05:45] Sosuke**
Yeah. I'd never do anything of the sort.
**[05:48] Sara**
Would that happen to be the reason
you quit your old agency?
**[05:52] Sosuke**
Taking any job that pays,
**[05:54] Sosuke**
even if it hurts innocent people...
**[05:57] Sosuke**
I just couldn't stand that from the agency.
**[06:01] Sara**
Very good!
**[06:02] Sara**
I'm impressed!
**[06:04] Sara**
You are an agent of justice after all,
so you must work for society and the people!
**[06:11] Sosuke**
Yeah, I guess you're right.

Kaburaya Detective Agency
**[06:15] Sosuke**
*The client Neya sent over,*
**[06:17] Sosuke**
*Mami Naganawa, visited my agency that night.*
**[06:21] Sosuke**
You need someone to investigate
some bullying, is that right?
**[06:25] Mami**
Yes.
**[06:25] Sign**
Mami Naganawa
**[06:26] Mami**
My daughter has been acting strange lately,
**[06:28] Sosuke**
* Her daughter's is Yuna Naganawa,*
* a first-year middle schooler.*
**[06:29] Mami**
so I'm wondering if that's the cause.
**[06:32] Sosuke**
*According to the mom, Yuna started cleaning*
**[06:35] Sosuke**
* her own school uniform*
* and shoes from time to time.*
**[06:38] Sign**
Japanese Dictionary
**[06:38] Sosuke**
* And recently, her textbooks*
* have been waterlogged.*
**[06:42] Sosuke**
* But when she asks her daughter about it,*
* she denies any bullying is happening.*
**[06:47] Sosuke**
*She even went to the school,*
**[06:49] Sosuke**
* who said they'd looked into it,*
* but turned up nothing.*
**[06:53] Sosuke**
* I've determined the best course of action*
* is to talk to the daughter myself.*
**[06:54] Sign**
The next day
**[07:00] Mami**
Yuna? Yuna, I'm opening the door.
**[07:03] Sosuke**
I'm sorry, Naganawa-san,
but could I ask you to wait outside?
**[07:07] Mami**
All right.
**[07:11] Yuna**
Huh?! Who the heck are you guys?
**[07:13] Sosuke**
No need to be frightened.
**[07:16] Sosuke**
I'm a detective your mom hired.
My name's Sosuke Kaburaya.
**[07:21] Yuna**
What? A detective?

You don't look like one.

Yuna Naganawa

And who's the girl?
**[07:27] Sara**
My name is Sara da Odin,
and I'm thirteen years old!
**[07:30] Sara**
I hail from Öland in Sweden—
**[07:32] Yuna**
So, what's a detective want with me?
**[07:35] Sosuke**
We heard you were being bullied at school
**[07:38] Sosuke**
and came to help you figure out a solution.
**[07:42] Yuna**
Well, I'm not being bullied.
**[07:45] Sosuke**
Then why do you keep coming home
with your shoes and uniform dirty?
**[07:48] Yuna**
They get messed up when I fall
or take detours on my way home.
**[07:51] Sign**
Modern Arithmetic
**[07:52] Sosuke**
Your textbooks look rather beat up.
**[07:55] Yuna**
Th-They just got wet in the rain.
**[07:58] Sosuke**
*She's definitely a stubborn one.*
**[08:00] Sosuke**
* I'll need to break the ice*
* by finding some common ground—*
**[08:03] Sara**
Ooh!
**[08:05] Yuna**
Wh-What?
**[08:06] Sign**
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
**[08:06] Sara**
You have so many books on
*Romance of the Three Kingdoms*!
**[08:09] Sosuke**
Come on, Sara!
**[08:10] Yuna**
Do you like *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*?
**[08:13] Sara**
Indeed! I love it!
**[08:14] Yuna**
Uh-huh. So, who's your fave?
**[08:17] Sara**
Zhuge Liang!
**[08:18] Yuna**
Zhuge Liang, eh? You don't say.
**[08:21] Sara**
That face...
**[08:22] Sara**
You must think I'm some fake fan
who only knows the really famous figures.
**[08:27] Yuna**
Am I wrong?
**[08:28] Sara**
Despite appearances, I first thought,
**[08:30] Sara**
"Zhuge Liang is totally overrated because
of adaptations, but he's not such a big deal."
**[08:35] Sara**
But then,
**[08:35] Sign**
Wei
**[08:35] Sign**
Shu
**[08:35] Sign**

**[08:36] Sara**
I started looking into the distribution

he's actually way more impressive
in real history than any ol' adaptation.

Legislative development
**[08:43] Sara**

a hardcore Zhuge Liang fan.
**[08:44] Sign**
Foreign policy
**[08:46] Yuna**
Huh. Not bad.
**[08:48] Sara**
So, who are you a fan of?
**[08:51] Yuna**
Lately, I'd have to say Dong Bai.
**[08:53] Sara**
Huh? Who's that?
**[08:54] Yuna**
Dong Zhuo's granddaughter.
**[08:56] Yuna**
She doesn't appear in the novel,
**[08:58] Yuna**
but she's mentioned in the notes
of Dong Zhuo's biography.
**[09:01] Yuna**
I read a novel starring her and got hooked.
**[09:04] Yuna**
Oh, here it is.
**[09:05] Sara**
Why on earth would you have walking
flavor text for the protagonist?

**[09:09] Sara**
The power of Japanese imagination
is far too great.
**[09:12] Yuna**
Honestly, I agree with you.
**[09:14] Sara**
But, truly...
**[09:16] Sign**
Romance of the Three Kingdoms
**[09:16] Sara**
You are quite a *Romance of
the Three Kingdoms* nerd.
**[09:19] Yuna**
I-I am not a nerd!
**[09:22] Yuna**
My dad just always loved this stuff,
so I'd browse it.
**[09:25] Sara**
Ah, your father sounds wonderful!
**[09:29] Yuna**
He passed away, though.
**[09:30] Sara**
What a coincidence.
My father also died just two months ago.
**[09:36] Yuna**
Wait, really?
**[09:37] Sara**
Indeed.
**[09:38] Yuna**
Two months ago? And you're already okay?
**[09:41] Sara**
Well, we rarely saw each other.
**[09:44] Sara**
Not to mention
I was in a dire situation myself,
**[09:48] Sara**
so I really didn't have
time to mourn my father.
**[09:51] Yuna**
I-I see...
**[09:53] Sara**
Despite everything, I've been
having fun in this country,
**[09:57] Sara**
but you've been having trouble
recently, haven't you?
**[10:01] Yuna**
N-No. Everything's normal for me, too.
**[10:04] Sara**
I can't say that I really understand
what bullying is like in this country.
**[10:10] Yuna**
Wha?
**[10:11] Sara**
My older brother and older sister
used to bully me quite often.
**[10:15] Sara**
Is that like what you're going through?
**[10:18] Yuna**
D-Don't compare this
to some silly sibling rivalry!
**[10:20] Yuna**
Bullying is far nastier...
**[10:24] Yuna**
and malicious...
**[10:26] Sara**
Hmm, then having your food poisoned
**[10:30] Sara**
or assassins sent after you isn't
what you'd call bullying in this country.
**[10:35] Yuna**
P-Poison?! Assassins?!
**[10:37] Yuna**
Are you from the *Three Kingdoms* era?!
**[10:39] Sosuke**
W-W-W-W-Wait, she's just saying there
are dangerous places like that out there!
**[10:43] Yuna**
I-I see...
**[10:45] Sosuke**
Anyway, given what you just described,
**[10:48] Sosuke**
it sounds like you know of some
bullying outside of the family.
**[10:56] Yuna**
Don't tell my mom.
**[10:58] Sosuke**
All right.
**[11:00] Yuna**
To tell you the truth,
I'm being bullied at school.
**[11:04] Mami**
Huh?
**[11:05] Sosuke**
I see. Could you tell us more?
**[11:07] Yuna**
They dump water on me,
dirty up my uniform or textbooks...
**[11:12] Sosuke**
Have they ever tried to take
your money or hurt you?
**[11:17] Yuna**
Nothing like that.
**[11:19] Sosuke**
Then let's put an end to this
before things escalate.
**[11:25] Yuna**
You don't need to butt in!
**[11:27] Yuna**
As long as I ignore them,
they might all get bored eventually...
**[11:31] Sara**
There must be a reason you don't
want this to become a big deal.
**[11:35] Yuna**
N-No, it's not like that!
**[11:37] Sosuke**
Are you worried that this
might trouble your mom?
**[11:44] Sosuke**
I guess that's it.
**[11:48] Yuna**
The ringleader is the daughter
**[11:50] Yuna**
of the president of the company
where my mom works.
**[11:53] Mami**
What?
**[11:55] Yuna**
My father passed right
after I started middle school,
**[11:58] Yuna**
so my mom had to find a job.
**[12:02] Yuna**
And the woman who helped set her up
where she works now is the mother
**[12:08] Yuna**
of the key culprit.
**[12:11] Yuna**
She's been lording the fact
that her mom saved mine
**[12:14] Yuna**
and that her dad is my mom's boss over me.
**[12:17] Yuna**
She started acting like she's better than me.
**[12:20] Yuna**
Eventually, she started
picking on me to blow off steam.

**[12:28] Yuna**
If I tried to do something back
or tattled to my teacher,
**[12:32] Yuna**
it'd only cause my mom grief.
**[12:34] Yuna**
So I just have to deal.
**[12:37] Sara**
You...
**[12:39] Mami**
You dummy!
**[12:40] Yuna**
Mom!
**[12:42] Mami**
Why would you let any of that concern you?
**[12:45] Mami**
You don't have to worry about me!
**[12:47] Mami**
Even if you retaliated
and I got fired from my job,
**[12:50] Mami**
I'd just sue for wrongful termination!
**[12:55] Mami**
Yes, I owe them a lot,
**[12:57] Mami**
but you know you mean the most to me, Yuna.
**[13:02] Yuna**
Mom...
**[13:06] Yuna**
Okay! Then I'm gonna beat the crap
out of those girls tomorrow!
**[13:09] Sosuke**
Huh?
**[13:09] Sara**
That's the spirit!
**[13:10] Mami**
Yes! Beat them silly! Pay them back double!
**[13:13] Sosuke**
W-W-Wait just a second!
**[13:16] Sosuke**
If you resort to violence, they may be able
to flip this and make Yuna-san the villain.
**[13:21] Sosuke**
If we're going to get back at them,
why don't we do it in a lawful manner?
**[13:27] Students**
Morning!
**[13:28] Students**
Morning.
**[13:29] Students**
Did you see that show last night?
**[13:30] Students**
I did!
**[13:34] (Flashback) Sosuke**
There's a camera embedded in this pen,
**[13:37] (Flashback) Sosuke**
and any video or audio it records
is transferred to a smartphone.
**[13:41] (Flashback) Sosuke**
Please get proof of the bullying with this.
**[13:44] (Flashback) Sosuke**
And when you're recording, make sure
you say the perpetrator's name.
**[13:49] Aoki**
Well, hello, Naganawa-san.
**[13:54] Yuna**
Good morning, Aoki-san.

*You're so dirty. We'll help you clean up.*
**[14:08] Yuna**
*That's so cold! Please stop, Aoki-san! Don't!*
**[14:10] Sosuke**
This is plenty of proof.
**[14:12] Sara**
Well done holding out.
**[14:14] Yuna**
I-It was nothing.
**[14:16] Sosuke**
Now we just need a lawyer I know
to create and send
**[14:18] Sosuke**
some documents via certified mail,
and we'll be done.
**[14:25] Sosuke**
We'll be going now.
**[14:26] Mami**
Thank you so much for everything.
**[14:29] Yuna**
Oh, hey! Um, Sara-san...
**[14:32] Sara**
No need to be so formal with me.
**[14:34] Yuna**
Th-Then, Sara...
**[14:35] Sara**
Yes? What is it, Yuna?

You can borrow this if you want.

You're in a good mood.
**[14:49] Sosuke**
Honestly, it'd be best if bullying
just never happened.
**[14:53] Sosuke**
And when it does, schools and families should
**[14:57] Sosuke**
nip it in the bud before
detectives or lawyers get involved.
**[15:00] Sara**
But it's because of you that
Yuna and her mother were saved.
**[15:05] Sara**
You have every right to be happy.
**[15:08] Sosuke**
Well, I guess you're right.
**[15:10] Sosuke**
I suppose I will.
**[15:13] Sara**
I would like to go to school.
**[15:17] Sosuke**
Was there something about this case
that made you want to?
**[15:21] Sara**
Well, I've so rarely interacted
with people my age.
**[15:26] Sara**
You didn't have school in your last world?
**[15:28] Sara**
There was a school that commoners attended.
**[15:31] Sara**
But it was the norm for the imperial
family and nobles to hire tutors.
**[15:36] Sosuke**
Ah, I see.
**[15:38] Sosuke**
School, huh?

You're going to dress up, Sara-chan?
**[16:22] Rinrei**
Okay!
**[16:24] Rinrei**
Pick whichever one you'd like!
**[16:25] Sara**
There are so many options!
**[16:28] Sara**
Rawr!
**[16:30] Sara**
Shark!
**[16:32] Sara**
Praying mantis!
**[16:35] Sara**
And then...
**[16:37] Sara**
A witch!
**[16:39] Sara**
Hmm, now if I only had a spear,
I would make the perfect Nobunaga-sama.
**[16:44] Sosuke**
Nobunaga?
**[16:45] Sosuke**
I get the cape, but what's with
the spear and witch hat?
**[16:49] Sara**
More importantly,
what will you be wearing, Sosuke?
**[16:52] Sosuke**
Huh? Why do I have to dress up?!
**[16:55] Kids**
Trick or treat!
**[16:59] Livia**

somewhat different than usual...

**[17:09] Livia**
"Halloween"?
**[17:11] Sara**
Trick or treat!
**[17:13] Female Shopkeeper**
My, what an adorable little witch.
**[17:16] Sara**
I thank you.
**[17:19] Sara**
Your costume suits you, as well.
You should dress like that all the time.
**[17:23] Sosuke**
No real detective dresses
so obviously like a detective.
**[17:29] Sosuke**
Wanna check around the station, too?
**[17:32] Sara**
Sosuke, bend down a bit.
**[17:34] Sosuke**
Sure.
**[17:35] Sara**
Come now. Come closer.
**[17:38] Sosuke**
Sure.
**[17:43] Sara**
Okay.
**[17:44] Sara**
Yeah!
**[17:46] Sara**
Very good! All dressed up
for Halloween and getting hype!
**[17:49] Sara**
Now I am also a true party person!
**[17:53] Sosuke**
Where are you getting this stuff?
**[17:56] Sosuke**
Say, Sara...
**[17:57] Sara**
Hmm? What is it?
**[17:59] Sosuke**
Is it possible the world you came from...
**[18:02] Sosuke**
is really Japan?
**[18:04] Sara**
That's some imagination you've got.
**[18:06] Sara**
Perhaps you should become a
writer rather than a detective.
**[18:11] Sosuke**
Why are you talking like a mastermind
who's just been exposed by some detective?
**[18:16] Sosuke**
I mean, a few things have made me wonder,
**[18:18] Sosuke**
but the biggest one is language.
**[18:20] Sara**
Oh?
**[18:21] Sosuke**
You said the reason I'm able to converse
with you and Livia without issue
**[18:25] Sosuke**
even though you came from another world
is translation magic, right?
**[18:28] Sara**
Indeed.
**[18:29] Sosuke**
But all of the spells I've seen you use
manifest physical phenomena
**[18:33] Sosuke**
that can be recreated with
science in this world.
**[18:37] Sosuke**
There are explosions and shock waves,
of course,
**[18:39] Sosuke**
but vehicles enabling flight
are growing more and more compact.
**[18:42] Sosuke**
There's also research to enhance healing,
**[18:45] Sosuke**
and techniques to bend light
to make something appear invisible
**[18:49] Sosuke**
are advancing.
**[18:51] Sosuke**
But your translation magic is fundamentally
different from all of that.
**[18:57] Sara**
You think so?
**[18:59] Sara**
Even in this world, you have apps
that can translate various languages.
**[19:04] Sosuke**
Machines can only translate
preprogrammed languages.
**[19:09] Sosuke**
With current technology,
I can't imagine it's plausible
**[19:12] Sosuke**
to instantly translate an unknown
language from another world.
**[19:16] Sosuke**
But you could immediately read Japanese
and understand what you saw on TV.
**[19:21] Sosuke**
And yet me saying you were shit earlier
totally went over your head.
**[19:26] Sara**
I suppose I can't talk my way out of this.
**[19:30] Sosuke**
This totally isn't some secret
that'd get you into any trouble.
**[19:33] Sara**
Indeed.
**[19:35] Sara**
As you've deduced, the language
I am speaking is, in fact, Japanese.
**[19:40] Sara**
Strictly speaking, it's my own version of
the official language of the Ofim Empire.
**[19:44] Sara**
It's not exactly the same as
the language of this country,
**[19:47] Sara**
but the differences are minimal enough that
I can parse the rest from context.
**[19:52] Sosuke**
So do Japan and the Ofim Empire essentially
exist in what we'd call parallel worlds?
**[19:56] Sara**
Yes. The world I hail from is an Earth
that followed a different history.
**[20:02] Sara**
And the one responsible for splitting
the timeline of Japan in two...
**[20:06] Sara**
is Nobunaga Oda-sama.
**[20:09] Sara**
In our world, he was the first emperor of
the Ofim Empire, Nobunaga da Odin-sama.
**[20:15] Sosuke**
Huh.
**[20:16] Sara**
That's not much of a reaction.
**[20:18] Sosuke**
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised
by anything Nobunaga might've done.
**[20:22] Sosuke**
I'm guessing your Nobunaga didn't die at
Honnoji and managed to unify the nation.
**[20:26] Sara**
Indeed.
**[20:27] Sara**
Nobunaga-sama managed to learn
magic from the Magic Gate,
**[20:31] Sara**
otherwise known as a country called Portugia,
**[20:33] Sara**
and they say that he was a true demon lord.
**[20:36] Sara**
His sheer strength was a large part
of the reason he was able to unify the nation.
**[20:41] Sara**
For example, here you know his greatest
struggle to have been the Siege of Kanegasaki.
**[20:47] Sara**
But in my world, he just blew
the Asakura away with magic like *boom*!
**[20:51] Sara**
Then he blasted the Azai Clan
that pursued him from the rear like *bam*!
**[20:55] Sara**
And that was that.
**[20:56] Sosuke**
That's awful...
**[20:57] Sara**
In Nobunaga-sama's biography in my world,
**[20:59] Sara**
it's just battles starting,
him casting Kaboom,
**[21:02] Sara**
and the enemy force being annihilated.
It gets kind of old,
**[21:05] Sara**
so I always preferred *Romance of the
Three Kingdoms* or *The Tale of Heike*.
**[21:09] Sosuke**
I was wondering when you'd even
read *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*,
**[21:12] Sosuke**
but it was in your own world.
**[21:14] Sara**
Precisely.
**[21:15] Sara**
Since Nobunaga-sama unified the nation,
**[21:18] Sara**
he became the new emperor
after the mikado stepped down.
**[21:22] Sara**
He then renamed the country Ofim
**[21:24] Sara**
to sound like "Land of the End"
in the Portagian language
**[21:27] Sara**
and started calling himself
the incarnation of Odin,
**[21:30] Sara**
the god from Norse mythology
and the great wizard king.
**[21:33] Sosuke**
I see.
**[21:34] Sara**
Now then, I think that's enough
idle chatter, don't you?
**[21:38] Sara**
Let us return to the shopping arcade.
**[21:41] Sosuke**
Don't you think Nobunaga would
weep if he saw his descendant
**[21:45] Sosuke**
so taken in by a shopping arcade event?
**[21:48] Sara**
Fear not.
**[21:50] Sara**
Nobunaga-sama's soul wouldn't go so
far as to follow me into another world.
**[21:54] Sara**
Not to mention, my ancestor is
my ancestor, and I am just me.
**[21:59] Sara**
I'm going to have fun living in this world.
**[22:03] Sosuke**
Yeah, fair enough.

What is a reseller?
**[23:57] Sosuke**
Someone who buys up popular merchandise
**[23:59] Sosuke**
and flips it at a much higher
price for a profit.
**[24:03] Livia**
I see...
**[24:04] Sara**
They're utterly evil economic terrorists!
**[24:06] Sara**
That's what resellers are.
