[00:41] Marie
I will become the bride of the person
who proposed to my older sister.
[02:20] Marie; narration
Baron Shaderan has two daughters.
[02:25] Marie; narration
One is cheerful and sociable,
with soft golden hair.
[02:28] Marie; narration
Anastasia, the older sister,
is like a princess.
[02:32] Marie; narration
The other is tall, like a boy.
[02:35] Marie; narration
All the tattered younger sister,
Marie, does is read books.
SIGN Episode 1 "I Could Never Replace My Sister"
[02:55] Marie; internal
The Shaderan family is poor.
[03:02] Marie; internal
Every day there is a mountain
of housework to be done.
[03:06] Marie; internal
And meals for the family
must be prepared as well.
[03:27] Marie; internal
Then there's Father's work, balancing the
accounts and signing documents in his stead.
[03:37] Marie; internal
But it's all right.
[03:39] Marie; internal
Tomorrow is my birthday.
[03:42] Marie; internal
I'm certain it will be a good day.
[03:57] Cedric
Sister, you're amazing! You look beautiful!
[04:01] Anastasia
Thank you, Cedric.
[04:04] Cedric
And your hair is so fluffy!
[04:06] Gregor
Everyone!
[04:08] Gregor
Thank you for gathering here today!
[04:11] Gregor
Here is the star of the day's events!
[04:14] Anastasia
What?
[04:16] Marie; internal
I see.
[04:18] Marie; internal
This is a debut party for my sister to find
someone to marry among the great houses.
[04:24] noble 1
I am pleased to make your acquaintance.
[04:26] noble 2
You are just as beautiful as they say.
[04:34] Marie; internal
Just because it's my birthday...
[04:37] Marie; internal
it doesn't mean that I'd become
the star of the evening.
[04:52] Marie; internal
Why was I born so horribly ugly?
[05:03] Kyros
Pardon me, miss.
[05:06] Kyros
I apologize for startling you.
[05:08] Kyros
I've been invited to the birthday party.
[05:11] Marie
The entrance is through there.
[05:13] Kyros
Thank you, Miss Maid.
[05:16] Mio
Master, this personage is not a servant.
[05:20] Kyros
What?
[05:21] Mio
The Shaderan family has one maid,
a 60 year-old woman.
[05:24] Mio
They have no other servants.
[05:26] Kyros
Really? Then...
[05:28] Mio
She must be one of the two daughters.
[05:31] Kyros
I have been terribly rude.
[05:34] Kyros
Please, forgive me, my lady.
[05:40] Marie
Could it be...
[05:41] Marie
Are you from the Ipsandros Republic?
[05:43] Kyros
Y-Yes. My mother was a traveling
performer from Ipsandros.
[05:48] Kyros
What of it?
[05:49] Marie
Oh, I knew it! And your clothes are
traditional Ipsandrian formal wear, aren't they?
[05:54] Kyros
Are you knowledgable about
Ipsandrian culture?
[05:57] Marie
I wouldn't say I'm knowledgable. I only
know what I've learned from books.
[06:01] Kyros
How unusual.
[06:03] Kyros
To think that you studied Ips culture
in a country as insular as this one.
[06:06] Marie
Oh but...
[06:07] Marie
Once a person realizes the depth of
Ipsandrian technology and culture,
[06:10] Marie
they are instantly captivated by it!
[06:12] Marie
I am one such person myself!
[06:16] Kyros
Exactly!
[06:17] Kyros
My personal wardrobe is made of Ips silk, of
course, but I insist that my underclothes are too!
[06:21] Kyros
I won't compromise on that!
[06:23] Marie
You are quite fashionable, sir.
[06:25] Marie
Personally, I love stories from Ipsandros.
[06:28] Marie
Do you know the story,
"The Raggedy Red Cat"?
[06:31] Kyros
Yes, of course!
[06:32] Marie
Raggedy, the abandoned cat,
[06:34] Marie
travels with a kindly wanderer and
grows stronger along the way.
[06:38] Marie
I have red hair and I'm
always in tatters, so...
[06:42] (Flashback) Gregor
A woman who makes a show of her
knowledge is an embarrassment!
[06:44] Marie
I-I'm so terribly sorry! I've
behaved in such a shameful manner!
[06:49] Kyros
Shameful? In what way?
[06:51] Marie
W-Well, I...
[06:53] Marie
Please excuse me!
[06:54] Kyros
Please, wait!
[06:57] Marie; internal
Eyes more beautiful than any star...
[07:01] Marie; internal
How can he be so wonderful?
[07:05] Marie; internal
And this wonderful man is here
to propose to my sister.
[07:10] Marie; internal
Compared to her, I am...
[07:14] Kyros
H-Have I offended you in some way?
[07:17] Kyros
If it's because I mistook you for a servant,
I'll apologize as many times as it takes.
[07:20] Marie
You've done nothing wrong, sir.
[07:24] Kyros
Your clothes...
[07:26] Kyros
Is there an extraordinary
circumstance behind this?
[07:30] Marie
No. I'm simply not lovely, that's all.
[07:36] Marie
I have enjoyed speaking
with you tonight.
[07:42] Kyros
You are beautiful.
[07:48] Marie
The evening's star is in the salon.
[07:50] Marie
Please go and enjoy yourself there.
[08:01] Marie; internal
Those were the words I'd
always longed to hear.
[08:05] Marie; internal
So why... why do I feel so sad?
SIGN To the eldest daughter of Baron Shaderan,
Lady Anastasia,
SIGN Beautiful lady, I would like to welcome you into the family of Count Granado as the wife of Kyros Granado. Even a day's delay is too long.
[08:11] Marie; narration
One month after that terrible birthday,
[08:15] Marie; narration
a letter with a marriage proposal arrived.
[08:19] Gregor
He's highly influential!
You'll be marrying upward!
[08:22] Gregor
Count Granado will inherit
the title of Duke one day.
[08:26] Gregor
And he's exceedingly wealthy, too!
[08:27] Gregor
You'll be able to live more lavishly
than the monarch of a small country!
[08:30] Anastasia
But I...
[08:33] Gregor
Marie! Hurry up and pen a reply!
[08:35] Gregor
Inform our relatives and
any neighboring nobility!
[08:39] Marie
Yes, I will at once.
[08:44] Anastasia
I'm going to be married.
[08:46] Anastasia
And to someone whose face
I don't even remember.
[08:49] Anastasia
I've heard that Count Granado is a
bad-tempered eccentric who hates women.
[08:55] Marie
Please, don't worry. The proposal
letter was so passionate.
[08:59] Marie
I'm certain that he will cherish you.
[09:06] Anastasia
But more importantly, there's
something I'd like for you to see!
[09:09] Anastasia
Oh, how wonderful!
[09:10] Anastasia
Marie, you're tall, so
it suits you perfectly!
[09:14] Marie
Wh-What is this?
[09:16] Anastasia
Clothes made for a woman to dress as a man!
[09:18] Anastasia
I suppose this is what's meant
by "asking for the moon"!
[09:20] Anastasia
I love to see beautiful women dressed
as men and I love dashing ladies!
[09:24] Anastasia
I made all of this myself!
[09:26] Marie
I-I see.
[09:28] Anastasia
Please keep it a secret
from mother and father.
[09:30] Anastasia
They found some things before
and threw it all away.
[09:34] Marie; internal
Sister, I didn't know you had
these interests. How amazing!
[09:38] Anastasia
If for some reason the Shaderan family
could no longer sustain itself...
[09:43] Anastasia
If one day I had to work too...
[09:45] Anastasia
I thought that I might open
a shop in the royal capital.
[09:49] Anastasia
Say, Marie...
[09:52] Anastasia
please make the most of your
skills and do work that you love.
[09:59] Marie; narration
My older sister was beloved by everyone.
[10:02] Marie; narration
I loved her too.
[10:08] Marie; narration
But on her way to marry Count Granado...
[10:14] Marie; narration
she lost her life in an accident.
[10:22] Marie; internal
Sister...
[10:24] Marie; internal
A long time ago...
[10:27] Marie; internal
she would often read
"The Raggedy Red Cat" to me.
[10:41] Elvira
You should have been the one to die.
[10:44] Elvira
Why is it you and not she who is alive?
[10:47] Elvira
You killed Anastasia, didn't you?
[10:49] Elvira
It's your fault! You murderer!
[10:51] Elvira
You and that red hair of yours!
[10:55] Gregor
Will you stop? You'll leave marks.
[10:57] Elvira
She should be scarred! So scarred that
no one will ever look at her face again!
[11:01] Gregor
No.
[11:02] Gregor
Marie will take Anastasia's place and
go to the home of Count Granado.
[11:07] Marie
Me? Take my sister's place?
[11:10] Gregor
Don't worry, Marie.
[11:11] Gregor
I know that you are a hideous little thing.
[11:14] Marie
Th-Then why...
[11:17] Gregor
We've sold everything that was
sent to us for the betrothal.
[11:20] Gregor
We don't have the money to buy it all back.
[11:23] Gregor
The count will be heartbroken at the
loss of Anastasia. Exploit that.
[11:27] Gregor
Even if it's just one night of comfort,
once you create a connection, we've won.
[11:32] Marie
A night of comfort?
[11:35] Gregor
Be Anastasia's replacement, Marie.
[11:38] Gregor
That is how you can atone.
[11:42] Marie; internal
Atone?
[11:45] Marie; internal
What crime have I committed?
[11:50] Marie; internal
Oh, that's right.
[11:53] Marie; internal
Being born as lowly me... that was my mistake.
[12:04] Gregor
Be docile and amenable, Marie.
[12:06] Marie
I will.
[12:07] Gregor
If the count dissolves the betrothal,
return home immediately.
[12:11] Marie
I will.
[12:12] Gregor
I'm saying these things for your sake,
failure that you are. You understand that?
[12:16] Marie
Yes. Thank you.
[12:20] Gregor
Not even your smile is lovable.
[12:22] Gregor
It would have been far better for you
to have died instead of Anastasia.
[12:29] Marie; narration
Today, I go to the man who
proposed to my older sister...
[12:34] Marie; narration
to be his bride.
[12:38] Gregor
What is the meaning of this?!
[12:40] Gregor
Let us into the palace! We
sent a letter in advance!
[12:43] Tomas
Y-You say that, but...
[12:46] Mio
The letter arrived only this morning.
[12:50] Mio
To call that advance notice puts
us all in a difficult position.
[12:54] Gregor
There is no point in speaking
to you! Bring the count here!
[12:57] Gregor
You're just a servant!
[12:58] Marie
Father!
[13:04] Mio
Baron Shaderan, I must ask that you leave.
[13:08] Gregor
This woman...
[13:12] Marie
I-I'm so sorry! My father
has been terribly rude!
[13:15] Mio; Tomas; internal
That bow of contrition was so fluid.
[13:19] Marie
I'm truly so very sorry.
[13:23] Mio
Y-You're... No. Are you Lady Marie?
[13:28] Marie
Y-Yes. I am Marie, daughter
of the House of Shaderan.
[13:31] Marie
Though I don't look anything
like my older sister.
[13:36] Mio
Tomas, take a message to
the master immediately.
[13:39] Tomas
Y-Yes, miss!
[13:42] Mio
Thank you for coming.
[13:44] Mio
I am the head chamberlain, Mio.
[13:47] Mio
Lady Marie, please come inside.
[13:52] Kyros
You can't be serious!
[13:54] Kyros
Send Marie Shaderan away!
[13:56] Tomas
B-But, Master...
[13:58] Kyros
The one I proposed to was Anastasia!
Not her younger sister!
[14:03] Kyros
Oh, Anastasia. If only I'd
whisked you away that night.
[14:07] Mio
Master.
[14:07] Kyros
What?
[14:08] Kyros
If it's about Marie Shaderan,
I've told you to—
[14:13] Marie
M-My name is Marie.
[14:16] Marie
It is, um... It is an
honor to meet you today.
[14:19] Tomas
L-Lord Kyros?
[14:22] Marie; internal
Oh, how could this have happened?
[14:24] Marie; internal
I never imagined that Count Granado
was the man I met that night.
[14:27] Gregor
A pleasure to meet you, Count Granado.
[14:30] Gregor
My eldest daughter Anastasia's unfortunate
accident brought our marriage talks to a halt,
[14:36] Gregor
and your lordship must be heartbroken.
[14:38] Gregor
And so I have brought Anastasia's
sister by blood, Marie.
[14:44] Kyros
Marie? You're Marie?
[14:47] Gregor
This is, indeed, Marie.
[14:49] Gregor
She compares quite unfavorably
with Anastasia, but—
[14:55] Mio
Master, your expression has
become quite frightening.
[15:05] Kyros
That was unseemly of me. Please spend the
night in comfort here in the palace.
[15:13] Mio
I shall prepare a room immediately.
[15:19] Marie
Um, where has my father gone?
[15:22] Mio
He is meeting with the master.
[15:24] Mio
In the meantime, why not
relax with a cup of tea?
[15:29] Marie
What a lovely aroma.
[15:31] Marie
Could it be that this is from
the Republic of Ipsandros?
[15:34] Mio
How impressive that you know that.
[15:36] Marie
I once read that they put spices in their tea
and drink it for their health in that country.
[15:41] Mio
It's ginger and cinnamon.
[15:43] Mio
They go well with tea from this country too.
[15:48] Marie
Ipsandros is truly amazing to be able
to create a tea as delicious as this!
[15:54] Marie
H-Have I said something strange?
[15:57] Mio
Pardon me. I was just thinking that
you are quite adorable, Lady Marie.
[16:02] Marie; internal
Adorable?
[16:05] Mio
Yes, coming.
[16:09] Marie; internal
Count Kyros Granado!
[16:11] Marie
I'm so terribly sorry!
[16:14] Kyros
For what?
[16:15] Marie
W-We have been unforgivably discourteous.
[16:18] Marie
I-Is my father...
[16:20] Kyros
He left.
[16:21] Kyros
I said, "There's no need to
return the betrothal gifts.
[16:24] Kyros
Offer them to Miss Anastasia's
grave for me," and he was gone.
[16:27] Marie
What?
[16:29] Kyros
Wait!
[16:30] Kyros
There's something I want to ask you.
[16:32] Marie
Wh-What is it?
[16:33] Kyros
Marie, has your family been abusing you?
[16:38] Marie; internal
Abusing me?
[16:40] Marie; internal
It's true that they didn't
treat me with much affection.
[16:44] Marie; internal
But that's because they were
training me, isn't it?
[16:47] Marie
It... wasn't that.
[16:51] Marie
The reason that Father and
Mother are strict with me
[16:53] Marie
is so that a know-nothing
like me can survive.
[16:56] Marie
I don't know how it may look
to you, your lordship, but...
[16:59] Kyros
It's Kyros.
[17:01] Kyros
My name is Kyros.
[17:03] Kyros
I don't like being called by
my family name or my title.
[17:06] Kyros
I want you to call me by my first name.
[17:08] Marie
Of course... Lord Kyros.
[17:11] Kyros
Going back to what you were saying...
[17:14] Kyros
If you weren't being mistreated, then why
were you dressed like that on your birthday?
[17:19] Marie
That's because...
[17:21] Kyros
Clothes like those are normally
worn by widows and nuns.
[17:25] Kyros
It's a color meant to turn men away.
[17:27] Kyros
Are you going to become a nun?
[17:29] Marie
No.
[17:30] Kyros
Then, do you simply hate men?
[17:32] Marie
No.
[17:33] Kyros
Then, did you act as a foil for
your sister because you wanted to?
[17:37] Kyros
Are you unhappy in the Shaderan family?
[17:41] Kyros
Marie, I can't understand
anything if you don't speak.
[17:44] Marie; internal
It wasn't a life I wanted.
[17:46] Marie; internal
But I never entertained any
hope of escaping that place.
[17:50] Marie; internal
I hate this. This time here.
[17:53] Marie
I...
[17:56] Marie
am not lovely, you see?
[18:00] Kyros
I see.
[18:02] Kyros
Mio, take Marie away!
[18:04] Mio
Yes, master.
[18:06] Marie; internal
I'm being cast out, aren't I?
[18:07] Marie; internal
It was strange that they let
me into the palace at all.
[18:11] Mio
Lady Marie.
[18:13] Mio
Shall we?
[18:14] Mio
I've already arranged for a
bath and a change of clothes.
[18:17] Marie; internal
What? What is she talking about?
[18:32] Marie; internal
Wh-What is this? Could it
be that this is the bath?!
[18:35] Marie; internal
How much firewood and water does this use?
[18:38] Marie; internal
Cleaning it must be difficult too!
[18:40] Marie; internal
I see! They're telling me
to chop firewood and clean!
[18:43] Marie; internal
That will wash away all the
discourteousness I've shown him.
[18:46] Marie; internal
What a magnanimous man.
[18:48] Tunika
Oh, I've been waiting for you!
[18:51] Tunika
I am Tunika. I am the keeper
of the baths for the count.
[18:55] Mio
Lady Marie, she knows many bathing methods
[18:57] Mio
and massages that are good
for health and beauty.
[19:00] Mio
She is also well-versed in medicines
and their effects. A true beauty pro.
[19:03] Marie
A beauty pro?
[19:05] Tunika
A professional.
[19:09] Marie
Wh-When did you do this?
[19:11] Mio
Lady Marie, if Tunika displeases you too
greatly, please feel free to slap her.
[19:16] Marie
Huh? What?
[19:17] Marie
But I'm going to be cleaning the baths now.
[19:19] Tunika
Oh, no. It isn't the bath that will
be beautified. It's you, Lady Marie!
[19:24] Marie
Wh-What?
[19:29] Marie
It smells so nice.
[19:31] Tunika
I've added salt, honey, and citrus fruits.
[19:35] Tunika
I'll have you reborn, all
soft and sparklingly clean.
[19:39] Marie
Reborn?
[19:43] Tunika
A chrysalis is meant to turn
into a butterfly, you know?
[19:47] Marie; internal
Who will... turn into what?
[20:38] Marie; internal
What a beautiful person. Who is she?
[20:41] Kyros
Marie.
[20:50] Kyros
Liu Liu!
[20:52] Liu Liu
Right here!
[20:54] Liu Liu
I can hear you.
[21:03] Liu Liu
Kyros, you're more swayed by
good looks than I thought.
[21:07] Marie
Good looks?
[21:08] Kyros
Please do this properly, mother.
[21:10] Kyros
The head of the family's approval is
necessary for a betrothal between nobles,
[21:13] Kyros
which means it rests
entirely with you, mother.
[21:15] Marie; internal
Mother?
[21:16] Marie; internal
Lord Kyros mentioned that his mother
was from Ipsandros, didn't he?
[21:20] Liu Liu
No good. She's lacking.
[21:22] Kyros
Mother...
[21:24] Liu Liu
She is overwhelmingly lacking in confidence.
[21:27] Liu Liu
The future wife of a duke must
stand proudly, noble and strong.
[21:32] Liu Liu
At least, she must before
the wedding day.
[21:34] Liu Liu
The real work starts now.
I'll do what I can to help.
[21:38] Kyros
Thank you, mother!
[21:41] Mio
Congratulations, Lady Marie.
[21:43] Marie
Thank you.
[21:44] Marie
Wait. Congratulations? For what?
[21:47] Mio
The duchess has approved your
betrothal to Lord Kyros.
[21:51] Mio
Now, you are officially Count
Kyros Granado's fiancée.
[21:55] Marie
F-Fiancée?!
[21:57] servants
Congratulations on your betrothal,
Lord Kyros, Lady Marie!
[22:01] Liu Liu
So my son is finally getting married!
[22:04] Liu Liu
At last I can set down these burdens.
[22:06] Kyros
Liu Liu, it's far too soon for that.
[22:08] Kyros
We haven't even held the
betrothal ceremony yet.
[22:11] Liu Liu
That's true enough.
[22:12] Kyros
I know! Let's dispatch a messenger so that
we can decide on a date for the ceremony!
[22:15] Marie
Um, excuse me...
[22:17] Marie
I... I can't do this!
[22:24] Kyros
What?
[23:58] Marie
Wait, wait!
[24:00] Marie
Why has the count proposed to me?
[24:04] Marie
I may be my sister's replacement, but a
tattered mess like me could never be loved.
[24:11] Marie
My life here is like a dream. It's
sure to disappear at any moment.

it was as if she'd been reborn.

You're always, always so cruel!
[00:51] Mio
This is my duty.
[00:54] Mio
Still, who would have imagined that you'd mistakenly propose to the wrong sister.
[00:59] Kyros
Well, how could I have known?
[01:02] Kyros
That night, it was Marie's birthday.
[01:05] Kyros
The girl sitting alone in the darkness...
[01:09] Kyros
Who would think that she
was the star of the party?
[02:44] Kyros; narration
My father, Duke Alfred
Granado, had two wives.

If the cat lay around like
trash, it became trash.
[02:53] (Flashback) young Mio
If the trash cried, "meow,"
then it became a cat.
[02:56] (Flashback) young Mio
And then, with me, it—
[02:57] Laura
Stop playing games!
[03:01] (Flashback) Laura
Don't you understand your position here?
[03:03] (Flashback) Laura
Know your place!
[03:08] Kyros; narration
The daughter of a noble family equal to the
duke's, my father Alfred's official wife,
[03:13] Kyros; narration
Lady Laura.
[03:19] Kyros; narration
And an Ipsandrian traveling performer
he took as his concubine,
[03:23] Kyros; narration
my mother, Liu Liu.
[03:50] (Flashback) Laura
I thought I heard a commotion.
[03:52] (Flashback) Laura
Here. Eat this and be quiet.
[04:00] (Flashback) Laura
That's something I baked.
[04:02] (Flashback) Laura
You're quite trusting to eat it, aren't you?
[04:05] (Flashback) young Kyros
That's because it's really yummy!
[04:08] (Flashback) young Kyros
I love it!
[04:12] (Flashback) Laura
Do you? And what else do you like?
[04:15] (Flashback) young Kyros
Let's see. Cake and cream
puffs and chocolate cookies!
[04:21] (Flashback) young Kyros
I love sweets!
[04:23] (Flashback) Laura
I like sweets, too.
[04:25] (Flashback) Laura
When I make sweets, I don't have
to think about unpleasant things.
[04:36] (Flashback) Laura
Next time, I'll make some
chocolate cookies for you.
[04:41] (Flashback) young Kyros
All right!
[04:49] (Flashback) Alfred
It is true that Laura is my official wife,
[04:52] (Flashback) Alfred
but all the children she has
borne me have been girls.
[04:56] (Flashback) Alfred
Which is why the one to
inherit my dukedom...
[05:00] (Flashback) Alfred
will be Kyros.
[05:17] (Flashback) Laura's daughter A
No!
[05:26] (Flashback) Laura's daughter B
Open your eyes! Mother!
[05:32] (Flashback) Laura's daughter C
Why? Why would you take poison?
[05:36] Kyros; narration
Why had the woman who had
been so kind to me...
[05:39] Kyros; narration
chosen death of her own free will?
[05:48] Kyros; narration
After Liu Liu was elevated to
the position of official wife,
[05:51] Kyros; narration
she said that she was no more than a
concubine and left the duke, taking me with her.
[05:57] Kyros; internal
And I, in order to survive in this land,
[06:00] Kyros; internal
attained the status of count
through my own efforts.
[06:06] Kyros; internal
But I hate gatherings of high society,
[06:10] Kyros; internal
and I evaded any talk of
marriage to noble daughters.
[06:23] (Flashback) Luiphon
Hey there, my friend!
[06:27] (Flashback) Luiphon
So you've finally shown your face.
[06:31] (Flashback) Kyros
If you invite me, then I have no choice.
[06:33] (Flashback) Luiphon
Did you receive one as well?
An invitation from a rural baron.
[06:38] (Flashback) Kyros
Luiphon, you got one, too?
[06:40] (Flashback) Luiphon
It seems that they must have sent one to every
bachelor who is wealthy or from the great houses.
[06:45] (Flashback) Luiphon
Baron Shaderan's family's troubles with
money are well-known among the aristocracy.
[06:51] (Flashback) Luiphon
It's blatantly clear that this birthday
party is a pretext for marketing his daughter.
[06:56] (Flashback) Kyros
Honestly. It's despicable.
[06:59] (Flashback) Luiphon
But according to rumors,
she is quite the beauty.
[07:03] (Flashback) Luiphon
I have a fiancée, so I
couldn't possibly go,
[07:06] (Flashback) Luiphon
but Kyros, why don't you attend?
[07:08] (Flashback) Kyros
Not interested.
[07:11] (Flashback) woman A
Count Granado?
[07:14] (Flashback) woman A
You're welcome to these if you'd like.
[07:21] (Flashback) Kyros
Yes, thank you.
[07:33] (Flashback) Luiphon
The ladies do like you, don't they?
[07:35] (Flashback) Kyros
They like me? All they see
is my title and my money.
[07:39] (Flashback) Kyros
Deep down, those women
all despise my heritage.
[07:43] (Flashback) Luiphon
Well, the average noble daughter detests
Ipsandros as a land of barbarians, you know?
[07:49] (Flashback) ladies
He's so wonderful.
[07:51] (Flashback) ladies
But the color of his skin...
[07:52] (Flashback) ladies
You know about his mother.
[07:57] (Flashback) Luiphon
I understand how you feel,
[07:59] (Flashback) Luiphon
but you can't remain a bachelor forever, can you?
[08:03] (Flashback) Luiphon
You are a count and the
only son of a ducal house.
[08:07] (Flashback) Luiphon
If you stay single, there won't be
anyone to carry on the duke's line.
[08:11] (Flashback) Kyros
I know.
[08:16] (Flashback) Luiphon
What sort of lady will be
able to win your heart?
[08:20] (Flashback) Luiphon
I greatly look forward to finding out.
[08:23] (Flashback) Kyros
As if such a day would ever come.
[08:32] Kyros; internal
No, he's right.
[08:34] Kyros; internal
The daughter of an impoverished
baron might be just right.
[08:40] Kyros; internal
And if it's only to be a
marriage of convenience,
[08:43] Kyros; internal
then someone easy to manage would be best.
[08:50] Kyros; internal
Love...
[08:53] Kyros; internal
That's something I never need to feel.
[09:01] Kyros; internal
At least, that's what I thought.
[09:04] (Flashback) Marie
Personally, I love stories from Ipsandros.
[09:10] Kyros; internal
And yet, I've fallen in love with her.
[09:13] Kyros; internal
I wanted to speak with her more,
but she slipped through my fingers.
[09:25] (Flashback) nobleman
By the way, I was wondering if this year—
[09:27] (Flashback) Kyros
Apologies. Are you Baron Shaderan?
[09:30] (Flashback) Kyros
Where is your daughter?
[09:31] (Flashback) Gregor
The star of the night is right over there!
[09:34] (Flashback) Gregor
Please! Take our daughter as your bride!
[09:38] (Flashback) Elvira
Oh, my dear! You've had too much to drink!
[09:40] Gregor; background
No, I haven't!
[09:41] Kyros; internal
I was told that the House of Shaderan
[09:43] Kyros; internal
has the elder daughter Anastasia
and the younger Marie.
[09:47] Kyros; internal
"The star of the night"?
[09:49] Kyros; internal
If she's Marie, the younger
sister whose birthday it is,
[09:52] Kyros; internal
then the one I met was the
older sister, Anastasia!
[09:57] Kyros; narration
I searched for her everywhere.
[10:09] Kyros; narration
But no matter how hard I looked...
[10:15] Kyros; narration
I couldn't find her.
[10:21] Kyros; narration
I decided to send a letter.
[10:23] Kyros; narration
I wanted not the younger sister Marie,
[10:25] Kyros; narration
but the older sister Anastasia as my wife.
[10:28] (Flashback) Kyros
Excellent! A reply has arrived!
[10:31] Kyros; narration
After that, I became incredibly busy.
[10:34] Kyros; narration
To offer my fiancée the finest hospitality,
[10:36] Kyros; narration
I arranged for dresses,
jewels, and new servants.
SIGN Anastasia

[10:40] Kyros; narration
I even acquired a body pillow to
hold through my sleepless nights.
[10:51] Kyros; narration
But...
[11:06] (Flashback) Kyros
The carriage... fell?
[11:14] Kyros; narration
And then, amid my heartbreak and despair...
[11:18] Kyros; narration
the woman I'd thought bore
the name Anastasia arrived.
[11:22] Kyros; narration
Marie Shaderan.
[11:25] Mio
Honestly, Master, you are such a fool.
[11:29] Mio
Though, my own knowledge
was lacking as well.
[11:34] Kyros
And now... I've been rejected?
[11:36] Mio
Accepting the truth as truth
is a wonderful thing, indeed.
[11:40] Kyros
Mio, couldn't you be a little
less... direct about this?
[11:44] Mio
Well then, Master, can you explain this?
[11:47] Mio
You turned away and silently
shunned Lady Marie's new look.
[11:51] Mio
Also, saying, "Send Marie
Shaderan away" wasn't optimal.
[11:56] Mio
Master, I am certain that Lady
Marie believes that you hate her.
[12:01] Kyros
If I clear up that misunderstanding, do you
think she will happily become my wife?
[12:06] Mio
I do not know.
[12:09] Mio
But for now, just give it your best.
[12:11] Mio
After all, Master, you are the one
who feels a one-sided love here.
[12:15] Kyros
Yes, you're right.
[12:18] Kyros
Let's go and see Marie.
[12:22] Kyros
What I want to see...
[12:24] Kyros
is her smile!
[12:30] Marie; internal
Worn out, tattered clothing.
[12:33] Marie; internal
My well-thumbed, beloved book.
[12:36] Marie; internal
That is all that this world has
bestowed upon me, and yet...
[12:45] Marie; internal
Who is this?
[12:50] Marie
Yes? Come in.
[12:54] Marie; internal
Mio... and Lord Kyros?
[12:58] Marie
I-I am so sorry for the
rudeness I displayed earlier!
[13:02] Kyros
Rudeness? What are you talking about?
[13:05] Marie
It was all so sudden that I lost
my composure. I am truly sorry.
[13:08] Kyros
No, I'm the one who should apologize.
[13:11] Kyros
Please lift your head.
[13:25] Kyros
I-It seems that a huge
misunderstanding lies between us.
[13:30] Kyros
First of all, I don't hate you, Marie.
[13:34] Kyros
Second, I had thought that you'd come
to this palace of your own free will.
[13:39] Kyros
I'm sorry for making such an assumption.
[13:42] Kyros
I truly do want to welcome you as my wife.
[13:45] Marie
Of course. Thank you for having me.
[13:48] Kyros
What?
[13:49] Marie
What?
[13:51] Marie
Wh-When I said that I couldn't be betrothed to
you, it was only because I was so shocked.
[13:56] Kyros
R-Really?
[13:58] Marie
Yes. I have no intention of refusing you.
[14:01] Marie
I have a general understanding of
your situation, your lordship.
[14:06] Marie
To inherit the title of duke, you
must marry a woman of noble birth.
[14:11] Marie
However, finding a bride has been difficult.
[14:14] Kyros
What you're saying is true, but...
[14:16] Marie
If it weren't, then someone of your standing,
sir, would never attend a poor baron's party.
[14:22] Marie
There, as your potential partner in a
marriage of convenience, you fell for my sister,
[14:27] Marie
the beautiful Anastasia.
[14:35] Marie
I-I shouldn't have said all that!
[14:37] Marie
I'm so terribly sorry.
[14:39] Marie
Due to the accident, I, the useless
younger sister, have come to you,
[14:42] Marie
but I assure you, I know my place.
[14:45] Marie
Your Lordship, please treat me in
whatever manner serves you best.
[14:49] Kyros
Wait! Please, just wait!
[14:52] Kyros
It's true that I had a political marriage
in mind when I went to that party.
[14:56] Kyros
But that night, my feelings changed!
[14:59] Kyros
That letter was no facade.
I meant every word!
[15:02] Marie
Yes, I know. Your feelings for Anastasia
were conveyed quite clearly.
[15:07] Kyros
No! That's where you have it wrong!
[15:10] Marie; internal
This doesn't make any sense.
[15:17] Mio
Both of you, it is time for dinner.

The proposal letter that
I sent to Anastasia...
[15:53] Kyros
I simply got her name confused with yours,
the lady I met in the garden that night.
[15:58] Kyros
The one I want to marry is you, Marie.
[16:03] Marie
I'm honored.
[16:04] Kyros
You don't believe me, do you?

Lord Kyros, you are a kind person.
[16:09] Marie
There's no need to be so
careful of my feelings.
[16:11] Kyros
I knew you didn't believe me.
[16:15] Marie; internal
For anyone born into
nobility, marriage is a duty.

It's the same for Lord Kyros.
[16:21] Marie; internal
No, his responsibilities and
mine can't be compared.

I'll arrange for everything.

You don't have to worry about a thing.
[17:14] Marie
Of course. I understand.
[17:17] Kyros
I hope you will enjoy your
life here in the meantime.
[17:20] Marie
P-Pardon me!
[17:21] Marie
Just once, I would like to go back home.
[17:24] Kyros
To the Shaderan house? Why?
[17:26] Marie
My father didn't think that the
betrothal would come to pass.
[17:31] Marie
I was to serve as your
comfort for one night.
[17:33] Marie
After forming a bond with you,
he was insistent that
[17:35] Marie
I be kicked out and return to him.
[17:38] Mio
What?!
[17:39] Marie
I-I never imagined this turn of events either,
so I must return home to receive instructions.
[17:47] Kyros
Mio.
[17:48] Mio
Of course.

Lady Marie, if you would wait just a moment.
[17:56] Marie; internal
H-Have I done something
disrespectful toward them?
[18:00] Marie; internal
No, all I've been is disrespectful.

I am afraid to say, Lady Marie,

that you are forbidden to return
to your parents' house.

Should Lord or Lady Shaderan come to visit,

we ask that you receive the master's
permission before meeting them.
[18:27] Mio
Lady Marie, may I ask you something?
[18:32] Mio
Why are you under the impression
that you are ugly?
[18:38] Marie
B-Because my mother and father...
[18:42] Marie
My hair is covered in balls
of lint. I have freckles.
[18:45] Marie
They always showed me my tattered,
raggedy self in the mirror.
[18:55] Mio
If you'll permit me to say, Lady Marie,
[18:58] Mio
of those things you just mentioned,
the only thing here is the mirror.

I'm so sorry. Those poor
ingredients. And the chef, too.
[04:15] Mio
After you've rested a little,
I will show you around the palace.
[04:20] Mio
You may find a change of clothes here.
[04:26] Marie
I-It's incredible.
[04:28] Marie
A-A magnificent sight.
[04:30] Marie
But I only have one body.
[04:32] Mio
I am aware.
[04:33] Mio
In addition to these, there are others befitting
other seasons, over a hundred prepared in total.
[04:38] Marie
A hundred?!
[04:40] Mio
Please choose what you like.
[04:42] Marie
What?
[04:43] Marie
Something... I like.
[04:47] Mio
Is there nothing here?
[04:49] Marie
No.
[04:50] Marie
They're all so lovely, I don't
know what I should choose.
[04:55] Mio
Then let's settle on this one.
[04:57] Marie
What?
[05:02] Mio
It suits you very well.
[05:04] Marie
Thank you.
[05:06] Mio
Then, shall we?
[05:08] Mio
Granado Castle was built
[05:10] Mio
to protect the kingdom's borders
from the front lines during the war.
[05:13] Mio
The House of Granado, margraves at the
time, constructed it to be a fortress.
[05:19] Marie
If I recall, House Granado has
ties to the royal family, don't they?
[05:22] Mio
Yes, but after the war, they attained the rank
of duke and now simply govern their own lands.
[05:27] Mio
They are not in the line of succession.
[05:30] Mio
Now, then.
[05:31] Mio
This castle is used only
for special functions.
[05:34] Mio
Lady Marie, let me show you to
the manor house where you will be residing.
[05:38] Marie
Manor house?
[05:40] Mio
We'll go through this door.
[05:54] Marie
It's lovely!
[05:56] Mio
This manor house was built
by Duchess Liu Liu.
[06:00] Mio
The first floor houses the kitchen,
[06:02] Mio
and also serves as a residence
for live-in staff.
[06:06] Mio
There are also private rooms
for the duchess' family,
[06:08] Mio
and facilities for entertaining
important guests.
[06:18] Marie
Excuse me, it's Mister Tomas, isn't it?
[06:20] Marie
I'm so sorry for my father's
inexcusably rude behavior.
[06:23] Tomas
My lady, how do you know my name?
[06:26] Marie
I thought I heard someone call you by it.
[06:28] Tomas
You're right! That's my name!
[06:30] Tomas
That makes me sort of happy.
[06:33] Marie
Allow me to introduce myself.
I'm Marie Shaderan.
[06:37] Tomas
My name is Dibomov Tomas Tender.
[06:40] Tomas
Please call me Tomas.
[06:42] Marie
Dibomov?
[06:43] Marie
Are you named for the hero Dibomov
who discovered Louhav Island?
[06:47] Tomas
What?
[06:47] Tomas
I'm amazed you know about
him! I'm from Louhav Island!
[06:51] Tomas
My lady, you're incredibly knowledgeable!
[06:57] Mio
Lady Marie is the master's fiancée.
[07:00] Mio
Do not touch her without permission.
[07:02] Tomas
I apologize...
[07:05] Marie
The castle was lovely,
but this room is wonderful, too.
[07:10] Mio
I'm glad you like it.
[07:12] Marie
Speaking of which, does Lord Kyros conduct
business with countries all over the world?
[07:16] Mio
No. Essentially, he only trades
with the Ipsandros Republic.
[07:20] Marie
I wondered because I saw folk crafts from
other countries all around the manor house.
[07:25] Mio
Those are the servants' personal items.
SIGN Nations of Bandelee
SIGN Flaria
SIGN Other Countries
[07:27] Mio
The head chef is from Flaria. The gardener
is from the Nations of Bandelee.
[07:31] Mio
We have many nationalities here.
[07:32] Marie
There's Tomas, for one,
but it's quite a diverse group, isn't it?
[07:36] Mio
The master is perverse.
[07:39] Marie
What?
[07:39] Mio
In this kingdom, prejudice
is a matter of course,
[07:41] Mio
but the master hires promising
individuals regardless of origin.
[07:45] Mio
Which is why everyone
here is devoted to him.
[07:48] Marie
I see. Mio, are you from the royal capital?
[07:52] Mio
I was an abandoned child.
[07:53] Mio
I'm told that I was left at a roadside inn.
[07:56] Marie
I-I'm sorry.
[07:57] Mio
There's no need to apologize.
[07:59] Mio
I've lived quite an enjoyable life.
[08:02] Mio
When the master was little,
I used to comfort him.
[08:05] Marie; internal
Wait. How old is Mio?
[08:07] Mio
As you can see,
many of us have difficult backgrounds,
[08:11] Mio
but Ilza and Hannah are worthy
of being your attendants.
[08:16] Mio
Both of them possess the dignity of
nobles born here in this kingdom.
[08:21] Marie; internal
I'd actually rather hear
stories of other countries.
[08:24] Marie; internal
Folk songs about old heroes,
learned by heart...
[08:27] Marie; internal
The call of an enormous bird with
rainbow-colored feathers...
[08:31] Marie; internal
But...
[08:32] Marie
Thank you for going to
so much trouble for me.
[08:34] Marie
I'll learn as much as I can so that
I don't embarrass any of you.
[08:46] Ilza
Your after-dinner tea.
[08:50] Marie
M-May I have some milk?
[08:54] Ilza
Milk?
[08:55] Marie
I often add milk to my black tea.
[08:58] Marie
What do you add to your tea?
[09:01] Ilza
Milk in your black tea?
[09:03] Hannah
Doesn't that ruin the flavor?
[09:05] Marie
What?
[09:06] Ilza
Putting cow's milk in tea?
What a novel way to drink it.
[09:10] Ilza
It's the first I've ever heard of it.
[09:13] Hannah
I'd expect nothing less of you, Lady Marie!
You're so free in your sensibilities.
[09:18] Marie; internal
It shouldn't be an issue in terms
of aristocratic etiquette.
[09:24] Marie; internal
Oh! Perhaps neither of them like milk!
[09:27] Marie
I'm sorry. I don't think
I'll need any after all.
[09:30] Marie
I'll drink it like this. Thank you.
[09:42] Marie; internal
Today was a long day.
[09:45] Marie; internal
I wonder if Lord Kyros is still
busy this late at night.
[09:55] Kyros
I wonder if Marie is enjoying herself.
[09:58] Wolfgang
Master,
[10:00] Wolfgang
tomorrow, you have a traders meeting in the
morning, a lunch meeting in the afternoon,
[10:03] Wolfgang
and following that, a market inspection.
[10:06] Kyros
When will I be able to go home?
SIGN 〜A few days later〜
SIGN MUNCH
[10:19] Marie; internal
Breakfast today is large, as usual,

[10:21] Marie; internal
but the crisp juiciness of the
vegetables is so comforting.
[10:25] Marie
Mio, where do you procure
these delicious vegetables?
[10:29] Mio
They're from the vegetable
garden in the courtyard.
[10:31] Marie
What?! There's a vegetable garden?
[10:34] Mio
Yes. Johan works very hard at it.
[10:38] Marie
I'd like to see the vegetable garden.
[10:42] Mio
I'm sorry, but I must prepare
for the master's return.
[10:47] Mio
Please take Ilza and Hannah with you.
[10:49] Marie
I-I see.
[10:51] Marie
I understand.
[10:55] Marie; internal
I hope this opportunity helps me
to grow closer to both of them.
[11:12] Marie
I had no idea such a beautiful
vegetable garden was so close!
[11:19] Marie
Hello.
[11:24] Marie
Mister Johan, isn't it?
[11:26] Johan
Hello. I hope you are well, my lady.
[11:30] Marie
E-Excuse me, but...
[11:32] Marie
those are tomato seedlings, aren't they?
[11:34] Marie
Are you getting ready to plant them?
[11:37] Johan
Y-Yes. This year's seedlings
have grown quite well.
[11:40] Marie
Yes, it is that time of year, isn't it?
[11:43] Johan
My lady, could it be...
[11:45] Johan
that you've grown vegetables yourself?!
[11:48] Marie
Y-Yes!
SIGN Cheap
[11:49] Marie
It's less expensive than buying them,
SIGN Salable
[11:50] Marie
and if there's extra, they can be sold.
SIGN Delicious
SIGN Simple
[11:52] Marie
For a house as poor as ours,
our garden was a lifeline.
[11:56] Johan
I see.
[11:57] Marie
But tomatoes are susceptible to bugs and
disease, so they were difficult to grow.
[12:01] Marie
Oh, yes. How far apart should
the seedlings be spaced?
[12:05] Johan
Come this way. You can leave
the seedlings where they are.
[12:10] Marie
You're going to show me? Oh, I'm so happy!
[12:17] Ilza
I don't believe it. She was
about to walk on the bare dirt.
[12:20] Hannah
Perhaps she isn't aware that gardens are
meant to be looked at and not walked in.
[12:25] Ilza
It's inconceivable. There are
bugs and that gardener in there.
[12:28] Hannah
Wait, perhaps the lady likes that.
[12:30] Ilza
Likes what? The bugs? The gardener?
[12:33] Hannah
Oh, you! I meant the bugs, obviously.
[12:35] Ilza
Of course. After all, no one
could possibly like that thing.
[12:38] Marie; internal
How can they be so rude?
[12:39] Marie; internal
I may be deserving of ridicule,
but Mr. Johan certainly isn't.
[12:45] Marie
No, it isn't like that!
[12:48] Marie
Wait!
[12:53] Marie; internal
These beautiful shoes were
given to me by the count.
[12:57] Marie; internal
I mustn't get these shoes dirty.
[13:01] Marie; internal
I know that.
[13:06] Ilza
Then, good night.
[13:07] Marie
Yes, good night.
[13:22] Marie; internal
For some reason, I can't sleep.
[13:24] Marie; internal
Maybe I'll ask for some water.
[13:29] Marie; internal
Someone is awake.
[13:34] Kyros
Marie?
[13:37] Kyros
What's wrong? Can't you sleep?
[13:39] Marie
U-Um...
[13:41] Kyros
I returned late, so I missed dinner.
[13:44] Kyros
Marie, please have a seat.
[13:48] Marie
P-Pardon the intrusion.
[13:50] Kyros
It's been four days, hasn't it?
You've grown even more beautiful.
[13:54] Marie
Not at all. I've been indulging myself
in the kindness of everyone here.
[13:59] Kyros
Marie, you're always like this.
[14:05] Marie; internal
My heart!
[14:06] Mio
Apologies for the wait.
[14:08] Kyros
Oh! Toppo, you're still awake?
[14:11] Toppo
Welcome home, young sir.
[14:13] Toppo
Stare.
[14:15] Marie; internal
Let's see. I think Toppo is
the head chef, isn't he?
[14:18] Toppo
You asked for something light,
[14:20] Toppo
so this is chicken and cassava
in a salt-based soup.
[14:23] Marie
Oh, it smells delicious!
[14:25] Kyros
Toppo, give Marie a serving, too.
[14:28] Toppo
Here you are.
[14:29] Toppo
Though I'm not sure it will
suit your tastes, Lady Marie.
[14:33] Marie; internal
I feel like he's being rather prickly.
[14:37] Marie; internal
This is delicious!
[14:38] Marie; internal
It's simple, but it has
such depth of flavor!
[14:41] Kyros
Toppo's cooking is delicious, isn't it?
[14:43] Marie
Yes, it truly is! The food here
is always so delicious, I...
[14:50] Toppo
There's no need for polite flattery!
[14:53] Marie
No, but I truly mean it!
[14:55] Toppo
No matter what I try, you never,
ever finish all your food! I understand!
[15:00] Toppo
It's because I, Toppo, lack the
skills! But the ingredients!
[15:04] Toppo
The meat and fish and...
I just feel so sorry for them!
[15:07] Marie
Th-This is a misunderstanding! I don't
leave the food because it tastes bad!
[15:11] Toppo
What?
[15:13] Marie
I felt badly for wasting
all those ingredients, too!
[15:16] Marie
But...
[15:19] Kyros
Mio, didn't you ask Marie what she liked?
[15:22] Mio
Whether it's food or dresses, Lady Marie is
unable to say that she dislikes something.
[15:27] Marie
N-No, all of it truly has been delicious!
[15:30] Marie
There wasn't anything that I disliked!
[15:32] Toppo
My lady, is that true?
[15:33] Marie
It's true! I got full and couldn't
eat anymore, that's all!
[15:38] Toppo
Then you were pleased with
the food? I'm so glad!
[15:41] Marie
M-Mio, what should I do?
[15:44] Mio
I'll go make some tea to end your meal.
[15:46] Marie
What?!
[15:47] Kyros
Marie, don't worry.
[15:49] Kyros
Toppo is always quick to cry.
[15:51] Marie
Is he?
[15:53] Toppo
I, Toppo, had no idea that my
lady felt that way, and yet I...
[15:59] Toppo
I will pull myself together
and bring your dessert!
[16:06] Toppo
Now, here you are!
[16:07] Kyros
It's incredible!
[16:09] Marie
How many apples did it take?
[16:11] Kyros; internal
The reason it didn't occur to Toppo
[16:12] Toppo; background
I'll portion it out for you!
[16:13] Kyros; internal
is that he doesn't understand that
others can't eat as much as him.
[16:18] Kyros
Let's all eat it together, Toppo.
[16:19] Toppo
What?! You wouldn't mind?
[16:21] Kyros
Of course not.

[16:32] Kyros
Please get some rest.
[16:35] Kyros
I'm sorry, Marie.
[16:37] Marie
What?
[16:38] Kyros
I created a situation that forced you
to consider others first.
[16:41] Kyros
Is there anything besides the
food that you've found trying?
[16:44] Marie
Oh, no. Everything is so wonderful
it seems a shame to waste it on me.
[16:48] Kyros
What about Ilza and Hannah?
[16:52] Marie
They take good care of me.
[16:54] Kyros
A friend of mine recommended them to me.
[16:57] Kyros
You are a future duchess.
[16:59] Kyros
I want you to be received in a
manner that befits that station.
[17:02] Marie
Thank you.
[17:04] Marie
They really are treating me well.
[17:08] Kyros
Marie, your habit of enduring
unpleasantness is a dire one.
[17:10] Marie
What?
[17:13] Kyros
Just because someone is treating you well
[17:15] Kyros
doesn't mean that you're
obliged to be happy about it.
[17:17] Kyros
And if you aren't happy about
it, then you can just tell me.
[17:23] Marie; internal
I don't have any preferences.
[17:25] Marie; internal
No. I don't understand what
it means to pick what I like.
[17:30] Marie; internal
I did the work that needed to be done
and accepted what was given to me.
[17:33] Marie; internal
That was enough.
[17:35] Marie; internal
It can't possibly be all right for
me to choose based on my feelings.
[17:40] Marie
I'm sorry, Lord Kyros. I don't want to
squander a single one of your kindnesses.
[17:46] Kyros
Marie, if you lack for something, tell me.
[17:50] Kyros
I will give you everything you want.
[17:57] Marie
Something I lack?
[17:59] Marie; internal
There shouldn't be anything, and yet...
[18:02] Mio
Pardon me for interrupting
your conversation.
[18:05] Kyros
Oh! I see you've brought
something very nice!
[18:09] Marie; internal
Something nice?
[18:14] Mio
Then please relax and enjoy.
SIGN Piled High
[18:17] Marie; internal
It's so big! Is that Mio's late-night snack?
[18:20] Kyros
Marie.
[18:22] Kyros
Do you know what this is?
[18:23] Marie
N-No. It's the first time I've seen one.
[18:27] Kyros
It's called a çaydanlik, and it's
used to make tea in Ipsandros.
[18:31] Kyros
First, you light the bottom
section to boil the water.
[18:34] Kyros
The heat of the water rises upwards,
[18:36] Kyros
slowly steaming the tea leaves
and bringing out their flavor.
[18:40] Kyros
When the time is right, you pour hot water
from the bottom pot into the top pot,
[18:44] Kyros
then place the pots back in their
original positions and wait.
[18:48] Kyros
When the tea is ready,
[18:49] Kyros
you use the remaining hot
water to dilute it to taste.
[18:52] Marie
So everyone can adjust it to
their preferred strength!
SIGN Tea is Ready
[18:55] Kyros
Everyone gathers around the
pot, waiting for it to brew.
[18:59] Kyros

we'll need to add a little something.
[19:41] Kyros
Let's focus on areas where
our knowledge overlaps.
[19:45] Marie
What? I-In that case, what about
things you like, Lord Kyros?
[19:48] Kyros
All right. It's limited
to things that we like!
[19:51] Kyros

[20:55] Marie
Lord Kyros, you've only been naming sweets!
[20:57] Kyros
What about you, Marie?
You're only listing agricultural goods!
[21:00] Marie
What? W-Well...
[21:02] Marie
Vegetables grow large very
quickly, so they're economical,
[21:05] Marie
and they're delicious in many recipes.
[21:08] Kyros
That's so like you, Marie.
[21:09] Marie
Honestly.
[21:10] Kyros
Sorry. I'm sorry. Forgive me.
[21:11] Kyros
Come on. Next is "K."
[21:13] Marie; internal
Something I like that starts with "K"...
[21:17] Marie
Kyros.
[21:22] Kyros
I feel like I heard something
that ends in "S."

I-I said, "kiss."
[21:29] Kyros
I see. I see. So, Marie, you like kisses.
[21:33] Marie; internal
Oh, that isn't what I meant!

I don't believe the two of you
require any further sweetness.

Lady Marie doesn't believe the
master feels the way he does.
[24:02] Mio
She doesn't feel she can truly
settle into life at the castle.

But I think I understand a
little of how she feels.

[00:07] Marie; internal
I am a replacement for my older
sister, Anastasia, who passed away.
[00:13] Marie; internal
I came here for the purpose
of a political marriage...
[00:17] Marie; internal
as no more than a mock fiancée, and yet...
[00:21] (Flashback) Kyros
Please tell me about yourself.
[00:27] Marie
Things... I like.

[02:03] Kyros
Oh, Marie...
[02:06] Mio
Master.
SIGN Episode 4 "I've Found the Things I Like"
[02:09] Kyros
Mio, if you're here, please say something!
[02:11] Mio
I just did.
[02:13] Mio
Seeing Marie after four days
apart, what did you think?
[02:17] Kyros
I love her!
[02:18] Mio
Not what I meant.
[02:19] Kyros
She's grown even more beautiful!
[02:23] Mio
Five days ago,
[02:25] Mio
you said to provide Lady Marie with our utmost
hospitality, and everything she truly deserves.
[02:30] Mio
You did say that, correct?
[02:32] Kyros
Yes.
[02:33] Kyros
Her treatment in the baron's
household was clearly wretched.
[02:37] Kyros
Marie believes herself to be
ugly and unworthy of love.
[02:43] Kyros
So I want to give her every luxury she
desires so that she can build some confidence.
[02:47] Kyros
I want her to know that
she is worthy of that.
[02:50] Mio
No matter how many luxuries
you may pile before her,
[02:53] Mio
Lady Marie will likely avoid them.
[02:55] Kyros
What?
[02:57] Mio
Master.
[02:59] Mio
I am an abandoned child, but I was lucky
enough to be taken in by Lady Liu Liu.
[03:04] Mio
I was elevated to the position of
head chamberlain of Granado Castle,
[03:08] Mio
a position far above my
station, by you, master.
[03:11] Mio
For that, I owe you an
immense debt of gratitude.
[03:14] Kyros
What is all of this? It isn't like you.
[03:18] Mio
It is because of this that I can
understand a little of Lady Marie's feelings.
[03:23] Mio
What it's like to go from a life of oppression
to becoming a resident in a gleaming castle...
[03:28] Mio
and the fear that creates.
[03:30] Mio
The sudden appearance
of a charming prince...
[03:33] Mio
all the dresses and
shoes, bestowed upon her...
[03:35] Mio
She wonders if it's all some ephemeral
magic, that will one day suddenly disappear.
[03:41] Kyros
It won't disappear.
[03:43] Kyros
Marie is beautiful and intelligent.
[03:46] Kyros
Mio, you're a brilliant head chamberlain,
[03:49] Kyros
and Liu Liu thinks of you
as her own daughter.
[03:55] Kyros
That isn't magic, it's reality.
[04:00] Mio
Yes, you're right.
[04:02] Mio
Master, you are exactly as you should be.
[04:04] Mio
Please continue believing in the truth
of these commonplace things.
[04:10] Kyros
Are you being sarcastic?
[04:12] Mio
Not at all. I'm complimenting you
from the bottom of my heart.
[04:18] Kyros
Tomorrow, I'll have to leave
the castle on business again.
[04:22] Kyros
I want you to use your discretion to
ensure that Marie is comfortable here.
[04:27] Mio
May I also review issues
pertaining to personnel?
[04:30] Kyros
You may.
[04:32] Mio
Those are the words I've waited for.
[04:34] Kyros
Still...
[04:36] Kyros
Is it all right for Marie
to be that adorable?
[04:40] Mio
What?
[04:41] Kyros
She's so elegant dressed up,
but splendid in lounge wear, too.
[04:45] Mio
Will this take long?
[04:47] Kyros
Smart and well-read, yet so naïve.
[04:50] Kyros
She stirs my protective instincts!
[04:52] Kyros
She's a good listener and fun to talk to.
[04:54] Kyros
She's brimming with a sparkling curiosity!
[04:56] Kyros
Her smiling face and laugh have
the impact of a ballista strike!
[04:58] Kyros; background
Her figure makes everything look stunning.
[04:59] Mio
You're speaking incredibly quickly.
[05:01] Kyros
We're talking about those
looks with that personality!
[05:03] Kyros
The synergy increases her
adorableness a hundredfold!
[05:06] Mio
Master, I don't think you're in
a position to speak of others.
[05:08] Kyros
Huh?
[05:11] Mio
Please go to sleep now.
[05:13] Mio
If you don't, you'll regret it tomorrow.
SIGN Marie is Life
[05:17] Kyros
I can't sleep.
[05:20] Mio
Now, then. I've received permission
to redirect personnel.
[05:24] Mio
I should take action as soon as possible.
[05:34] Mio
Is this an appropriate quantity?
[05:36] Marie
Yes! I will be able to finish all of this.
[05:42] Marie
That was delicious!
[05:45] Mio
Please allow me to join you.
[05:47] Marie
What? You don't mind?
[05:49] Mio
While you are dining, I have
my work as your server,
[05:52] Mio
but I can accompany you for tea.
[05:54] Marie
I'm so happy!
[05:55] Marie
Mio, I've been wanting to have
tea with you for so long!
[05:58] Marie
Oh!
[06:00] Marie
Mio, if you're here, does that mean
that Lord Kyros has already left?
[06:07] Mio
No, we've switched assignments.
[06:10] Mio
Ilza and Hannah are serving the master.
[06:13] Mio
I thought that might be best for everyone.
[06:16] Marie
I see...
[06:18] Marie; internal
She's right. I'm certain they'll be happier
if they're able to serve real nobility.
[06:26] Marie
Come in!
[06:27] Toppo
My lady! I, Toppo, have brought
my latest delicious experiment!
[06:30] Toppo
Would you like some?
[06:31] Marie
I would!
[06:35] Marie
A white... pudding?
[06:37] Toppo
It's a blancmange made with
almond flour and fresh milk!
[06:42] Toppo
Miss Mio, you should have some, too.
[06:46] Marie
Oh, it's so jiggly!
[06:51] Toppo
Delicious!
[06:53] Toppo
Toppo's food really is
the best in the world!
[06:56] Toppo
I must hurry and make enough
for everyone in the castle!
[06:58] Toppo
I, Toppo, will take my leave now!
[07:00] Marie
Wait!
[07:03] Marie
It's just that Ilza and Hannah
may not like milk very much.
[07:07] Mio
I haven't heard anything about that.
[07:10] Marie
But when I asked for milk for my tea,
[07:12] Marie
they said that was a novel way to drink it.
[07:16] Mio
What?
[07:17] Marie
It must be that they don't like milk.
[07:20] Marie
Would it be possible to make
those without using milk?
[07:22] Toppo
Understood, my lady! I will give it a try!
[07:25] Marie
Thank you, Toppo!
[07:29] Mio
Lady Marie, you are...
[07:39] Marie
I'm sure that Ilza and Hannah will
be shocked at how delicious it is.
[07:43] Tomas
Oh! My lady!
[07:49] Tomas
I was just on my way to your room.
[07:51] Mio
Tomas, what is that?
[07:53] Tomas
It arrived for my lady.
[07:55] Tomas
It's from her family, the
house of Baron Shaderan.
[07:59] Mio
Tomas! Why did you bring that here?!
[08:08] Tomas
B-But the master said that anything
from the House of Shaderan
[08:12] Tomas
should be given to the lady if
her attendants said it was okay.
[08:15] Mio
If you know that, then why?
[08:17] Mio
I haven't inspected that!
[08:18] Tomas
What? But Miss Hannah and Miss Ilza looked
it over and said to take it to the lady.
[08:30] Marie; internal
These are, without a doubt, my things.
[08:35] Elvira
Congratulations on your engagement.
[08:37] Elvira
You left behind some essential items
for your work in the count's household.
[08:52] Marie; internal
"The Story of the Raggedy Red Cat."
[08:55] Marie; internal
The thread in the binding has
been frail for a while,
[08:58] Marie; internal
but I'm certain that I
put it away carefully.
[09:00] Tomas
I-I'm sorry! I've done
something awful, haven't I?
[09:03] Ilza
What are you doing? Hey, let me go!
[09:06] Hannah
Release me immediately!
[09:08] Ilza
Hey!
[09:09] Ilza
That hurt.
[09:10] Hannah
How dare you?! You're just a maid!
[09:13] Mio
And so are the two of you.
[09:14] Ilza
What?! We served the third prince
in the palace, you know?
[09:18] Hannah
Prince Luiphon recommended us
to Granado Castle personally!
[09:22] Mio
And I am the head of the servants
here at Granado Castle.
[09:25] Ilza
You're just some old-timer.
[09:27] Hannah
You were just demoted to serving
the daughter of a destitute baron.
[09:30] Mio
And I was the one who
arranged for that transfer.
[09:33] Hannah
Don't talk down to me.
[09:35] Ilza
Actually, it's well known, isn't it?
[09:37] Ilza
The countess is a barbarian,
[09:38] Ilza
and a former prostitute, who set up her
child with a client as a maid here.
[09:41] Hannah
What? I thought the child was an orphan,
abandoned on the side of the road at birth.
[09:46] Ilza
She lacks a surname.
[09:47] Ilza
It's hilarious to think she's
serving in a count's castle!
[09:54] Mio
I see. So you truly are imbeciles.
[09:56] Ilza
What did you just say?
[10:06] Mio
Now, it's your turn.
[10:09] Hannah
No!
[10:13] Mio
My deepest apologies. This is all due
to my ineptitude as a supervisor.
[10:18] Marie
It's all right. More importantly,
may I borrow some scissors and thread?
[10:27] Marie
Johan!
[10:29] Johan
My lady!
[10:30] Johan
Y-Your clothes...
[10:34] Marie
I remade some of my old clothes.
[10:36] Marie
You said you'd show me around
the garden, didn't you?
[10:39] Marie
Getting these a bit dirty is fine.
[10:42] Johan
Is that all?
[10:44] Johan
There were plenty of servants' shoes
I could have offered you.
[10:47] Marie
Oh! Yes, we could have done that!
[10:51] Johan
Well, no matter.
[11:06] Marie; internal
I've realized it for the first time.
[11:08] Marie; internal
The things I like...
[11:10] Marie; internal
I always thought I was doing
everything for my family,
[11:13] Marie; internal
but the truth is all the
hard labor felt like nothing...
[11:16] Marie; internal
because of how much I love
growing delicious vegetables.
[11:21] Marie; internal
I really do have things I like
and things I want to do.
[11:26] Johan
I'm sorry I was brusque
toward you before now.
[11:29] Johan
I thought that I shouldn't cause trouble for
you, the count's lady, by speaking to you.
[11:34] Marie
Trouble?
[11:35] Johan
I am a servant. And I'm a foreigner.
[11:39] Marie
That doesn't matter.
[11:42] Marie
We're living in the same house.
That makes us family, doesn't it?
[11:50] Marie
I-I haven't officially become his fiancée
yet, but everyone here seems like a family.
[11:57] Johan
You say the same things as the master does.
[12:00] Marie
As Lord Kyros?
[12:01] Tomas
My lady!
[12:03] Tomas
The master is leaving!
[12:08] Marie
Lord Kyros!
[12:13] Kyros
Oh, Marie.
[12:15] Mio
The master stayed up all
night, so he's rather exhausted.
SIGN Last Night
[12:16] Kyros; background
Oh, Marie! I love you, Marie!
[12:19] Marie
My, he truly is busy, isn't he?
[12:22] Mio
More importantly, master, if you will be
visiting the palace for an evening party...
[12:25] Ilza
Let us go!
[12:26] Hannah
Stay away, you filthy servant!
[12:28] Ilza; background
You're filthy and you stink!
[12:29] Mio
please return that dead
weight to Prince Luiphon.
[12:32] Hannah
D-Did you just call us dead weight?
We're here at his recommendation!
[12:36] Ilza
That's right! He said that one
day, we'd be his concubines.
[12:40] Hannah
All of this...
[12:41] Ilza
...is your fault!
[12:43] Ilza
You're just the daughter of a
broke baron lured by money!
[12:47] Ilza
You're no more than your
dead sister's replacement!
[12:49] Hannah
Everyone knows Shaderan's youngest
daughter is a losing prospect.
[12:53] Hannah
And it's the count who will be a
laughingstock for pulling the short straw!
[12:56] Marie; internal
Lord Kyros... a laughingstock?
[12:59] Ilza
You need to learn your place!
[13:01] Hannah
Ugly wench!
[13:03] Kyros
What part of her?
[13:06] Kyros
Try saying that again.
[13:08] Kyros
What part of my family,
of Marie, do you find ugly?
[13:11] Hannah
No, it's just...
[13:14] Kyros
And all this talk of noble
houses and money...
[13:17] Kyros
those aren't things that
belong to you, are they?
[13:19] Kyros
Are either of you more beautiful than
Marie? More honorable? More clever?
[13:24] Kyros
Cuter? Are you any of those things?
[13:26] Kyros
What about you could I possibly love?
[13:30] Kyros
Please, tell me.
[13:32] Kyros
Because I can't find a single thing.
[13:42] Kyros
Take them away.
[13:44] Tomas
Yes, sir!
[13:47] Marie
I'm so sorry.
[13:49] Kyros
For what?
[13:51] Marie
They said I'm the reason
they'll laugh at you, Lord Kyros.
[14:02] Kyros
Marie.
[14:06] Kyros
You are beautiful.
[14:09] Kyros
There's nothing here to laugh at.
[14:11] Kyros
Your beautiful red hair,
set off so well by this green...
[14:14] Kyros
Your eyes that shine like stars...
[14:16] Kyros
Your overflowing knowledge and curiosity...
[14:19] Kyros
Your innocent smile when you
speak of things you love...
[14:24] Kyros
Altogether beautiful.
[14:33] Mio
Ahem.
[14:35] Mio
Master, we are out of time.
[14:39] Mio
We can wait another few seconds,
[14:41] Mio
but I'm certain that wouldn't suffice.
[14:43] Kyros
What? Y-Yes.
[14:49] Tunika
Oh, the poor master.
And just when he was so close.
[14:52] Tunika
I only came for herbs to
use in some treatments,
[14:56] Tunika
but I managed to witness
something very nice.
[14:59] Tunika
Don't you agree?
[15:00] Johan
Do you think the oregano
I grew was useful?
SIGN They saw
everything...
[15:08] Marie; narration
I was told that Lord Kyros was going
to the royal palace for a ceremony,
[15:11] Marie; narration
and that he would be away for ten days.
[15:13] Marie; narration
When he returned,
[15:14] Kyros; background
Marie! I will return soon!
[15:14] Marie; narration
we would begin arrangements
for our betrothal ceremony in earnest.
[15:23] Marie; internal
There's nothing here to laugh at.
[15:26] Marie; internal
That's what Lord Kyros said, but...
[15:32] Marie
This is...
[15:35] Marie
It isn't meant to be a threat, is it?
[15:37] Mio
No, it isn't. It's written as an invitation.
[15:41] Marie
"Lady Marie Shaderan,"
[15:43] Marie
"I wish to congratulate you upon your
betrothal to my old friend Count Kyros Granado."
[15:50] Mio
It's normal up to that point.
[15:52] Marie
"As such, we have planned a special
event utilizing our means and efforts."
[15:58] Marie
"Notice has been spread throughout the royal
capital, and the people eagerly await the day."
[16:05] Marie
"Lady Marie, should you be unable to attend,
everything will have been for naught."
[16:10] Marie
"The people will despair, and their
distress shall surely span generations."
[16:14] Marie
"Please, you simply must attend."
[16:18] Mio
It certainly does sound like a threat.
[16:21] Marie
This gentleman is a prince, isn't he?
[16:24] Mio
Yes.
[16:25] Mio
He is the third prince and the
captain of the Royal Knights.
[16:30] Mio
He has quite an open-hearted personality.
[16:34] Mio
The fact that this arrived
on the eve of the event
[16:36] Mio
shows that he expects you to attend.
[16:47] Marie
Wh-What is this?
[16:49] Mio
A chariot from the Royal Knights.
[17:32] Marie
A-And this is...
[17:34] Mio
A military fortress for the Kingdom of Diltz,
the stronghold of the Royal Knights.
[17:39] Marie
A-Am I going to be publicly executed?
[17:42] Mio
Please calm down.
[17:44] Marie
B-But why the fortress?
[17:47] Marie
I could have been with
Lord Kyros if it were the palace.
[17:49] Mio
Prince Luiphon is the one who
recommended Hannah and Ilza.
[17:53] Mio
He must want to apologize.
SIGN Returned Goods
[17:57] Marie; internal
That only increases my fear of an execution.
[18:02] Marie
Is something wrong?
[18:03] Mio
If Prince Luiphon is the host, he likely
has some amusing plans in place.
[18:07] Marie
Plans?
[18:09] Mio
Monster scares...
[18:11] Mio
A rain of onions from above...
[18:13] Mio
Or perhaps a pool full of jelly...
[18:16] Marie
Just what sort of person is Prince Luiphon?
[18:18] Mio
Well, he is not a villain.
[18:20] Mio
Since we're here, I believe
we should enjoy the fun.
[18:36] Marie
It's all so lively.
[18:38] Mio
It's been fifty years since the
war. The world is at peace.
[18:42] Mio
This sort of excitement
is good entertainment.
[18:45] Mio
Please have one.
[18:46] Marie
Th-Thank you.
SIGN When did she buy this?
[18:48] Marie
First, I should go and greet
Prince Luiphon, right?
[18:51] Mio
No, he probably isn't waiting
for a greeting from you.
[18:55] Mio
It's possible that he hasn't
even come here at all.
[18:58] Marie
What? So, I'm meant to simply
enjoy the festivities and leave?
[19:02] Mio
Who can say? I don't understand what goes
on in Prince Luiphon's head at all.
[19:09] Marie; internal
I feel like Mio is a little
harsh towards the prince.
[19:18] Marie
I wonder, does this feel like a small
event for someone of the royal family?
[19:22] Mio
No, events on this scale are fairly rare.
[19:26] Mio
What concerns me...
[19:30] Mio
is that not a single rumor of it
reached us at Granado Castle.
[19:34] Mio
If Prince Luiphon issued a gag order before
executing these arrangements, then...
[19:40] Mio
I have a bad feeling about this.
[19:43] Marie
M-Mio?
[19:45] Mio
Prince Luiphon!
[19:48] Marie
Where? What does he look like?
[19:50] Mio
Down on the left by the stone wall.
[19:52] Mio
Silver hair, wearing a
knight's military uniform.
[19:55] Marie
Mio, how can you see so well?
[19:57] Mio
I will go and check. Lady Marie,
please wait for me here.
[20:00] Marie
I-I'll go with you!
[20:02] Mio
It may be that he's made one of his
men dress as him to lure us out...
[20:06] Mio
as part of a plan to suddenly
appear and scare you, Lady Marie.
[20:10] Marie
What?
[20:11] Mio
Don't move from this spot until I return.
[20:13] Mio
No matter who calls out to
you, please ignore them.

I-I will!

[20:44] Marie
I-If a noble's wife peeled apples...

would it make her husband
a laughingstock, too?

[01:52] Mio
You took so long to arrive, Prince Luiphon,
[01:55] Mio
so I was just going to leave with Lady Marie.
[01:57] Luiphon
I said I was sorry, didn't I? You
can be heartless, darling Mio.
[02:01] Mio
Please don't call me "darling."
[02:03] Marie
Mio.
[02:04] Luiphon
By the way...
[02:05] Luiphon
are you hungry?
[02:07] Luiphon
How does a lavish buffet in
the nobles' salon sound?
[02:10] Marie
Nobles...
[02:12] Marie
I-I'm not very hungry.
[02:15] Luiphon
Oh, Ilza and Hannah aren't
here anymore. Don't worry.
[02:19] Luiphon
I'm sorry for recommending them without
knowing their personalities.
[02:23] Marie
No, it isn't that.
[02:25] Marie
The thought of a place as refined
as a salon makes me anxious.
[02:30] Luiphon
In that case, what about the
swordsmanship exhibition?
[02:33] Luiphon
I have reserved seats. Let's go and watch!
[02:35] Marie
S-Swordsmanship?
[02:37] Luiphon
That's right!
[02:38] Marie
I, um, well...
[02:43] Mio
Lady Marie, there's no
need to force yourself.
[02:45] Mio
You hate competitions, don't you?
[02:47] Luiphon
What?! But why?
[02:50] Luiphon
This is one of the best aristocratic pastimes!
[02:52] Marie
Yes, please, I'd love to see it!
[02:54] Luiphon
Now that's the reaction I was hoping for!
[02:56] Luiphon
I can best any knight with a sword, you know?
[02:59] Luiphon
Kyros once complimented me by saying, "the
sword is the only place where you show genius."
[03:04] Marie
Then Lord Kyros truly is strong?
[03:07] Luiphon
He is indeed!
[03:09] Marie; internal
Being complimented by Lord Kyros
made you happy, didn't it?
[03:16] referee
We will now begin the semi-finals of the
Diltz Kingdom Swordsmanship Exhibition!
[03:23] Luiphon
This enthusiasm is wonderful, isn't it?
[03:26] Luiphon
Last year, I fell asleep during the concert.
[03:28] Luiphon
And dear Kyros kept pinching my cheeks.
[03:31] Marie
Prince Luiphon really loves
Lord Kyros, doesn't he?
[03:34] Marie
I'm having fun just listening to him.
[03:36] Mio
Well, it's enjoyable to discuss
your passions with others.
[03:40] Mio
Now then.
[03:42] Mio
I'm off to procure some food.
[03:44] Marie
What? But we just ate.
[03:46] Mio
I wanted to visit all the stalls.
[03:48] Luiphon
Your stomach is a separate
dimension, as always.
[03:50] Luiphon
Go and eat as much as you like.
[04:00] Luiphon
That fighter in the dark armor
is an impressive warrior.
[04:03] Marie
I see.
[04:05] Luiphon
Say, are you like this with Kyros, too?
[04:09] Marie
What?
[04:11] Marie
Well...
[04:12] Luiphon
Well, you're rather
different from the others.
[04:16] Luiphon
And I've known Kyros a long time.
[04:18] Marie
I heard that the two of you were
in the same year in school.
[04:22] Luiphon
Yes, and the first time we
met we got into a fistfight!
[04:25] Marie
What?!
[04:26] Luiphon
As the duke's son, he was just below me in terms of rank at school.
[04:31] Luiphon
But he said, "Stop judging people based
on their rank, you moronic prince."
[04:36] Marie
M-Moronic?
[04:37] Luiphon
I thought, "What's his problem?" and
punched him. Then he punched me back.
[04:42] Luiphon
It turned into quite the commotion.
[04:47] Marie
Does it really warrant that much laughter?
[04:54] referee
Winner, the pitch-black warrior!
[04:57] Marie
Oh, is it already over?
[05:00] Luiphon
Yes. By knocking the point of
the blue knight's sword away,
[05:03] Luiphon
the dark warrior was able to
win with a single strike.
[05:05] Luiphon
By the look of things, he was holding back.
[05:07] Luiphon
It seems he has the kindness
to care for his opponents.
[05:13] Luiphon
My sweet Marie...
[05:15] Luiphon
doesn't seeing this sort of thing
make you think they're dashing?
[05:18] Luiphon
Many girls squeal with delight, you know?
[05:21] Marie
I-I...
[05:23] Marie
I don't find being strong in battle
to be particularly wonderful.
[05:27] Luiphon
Aren't strength and reliability the
things that are most attractive in men?
[05:31] Marie
To be honest, I'm frightened.
[05:33] Marie
I feel like one day that
sword will be pointed at me.
[05:36] Luiphon
What's that supposed to
mean? You're so negative!
[05:40] Marie
I'm sorry.
[05:42] Luiphon
Say, Lady Marie Shaderan, why
did you become Kyros' fiancée?
[05:48] Marie
B-Because...
[05:50] Marie; internal
I'm my older sister's replacement.
[05:52] Marie; internal
Yes, I am just a replacement.

Begin!

Congratulations! This is the winner's tro—

He's putting his worry
for his opponent first?

If he's the one fighting, then perhaps even
I might enjoy watching his bouts a little.

My, that is good news.
[06:35] Marie
W-Welcome back.
SIGN Spoils of War
[06:37] Mio
I have only just returned.

You mentioned good news?
[06:44] Mio
That dark warrior is the master.
[06:47] Marie
What?
[06:49] Luiphon
You seem very certain.
[06:51] Mio
His swordsmanship and footwork
are exactly identical to the master's.
[06:56] Marie
Lord Kyros... is the dark warrior?

Shall we see for certain?

Count Kyros Granado, you're so dashing!

Look this way!

Kyros?
[07:14] crowd
Count?
[07:15] crowd
From the Granado Company?
[07:17] crowd
Really?
[07:18] crowd
Lord Kyros! Look over here!
[07:20] crowd
Take off your helmet!
[07:34] Mio
Every male noble in the Kingdom of Diltz
is made to hold the sword at least once.
[07:38] Mio
The master has trained intensively
since he was a child for self-defense.
[07:42] Marie
H-He has?
[07:45] Luiphon
That was the best expression
I've seen today, thanks.
[07:47] Marie; internal
Prince Luiphon knew from
the start, didn't he?
[08:01] Marie
E-Excuse me. What is this line for?
[08:04] lady A
What? It's the line to make an
appeal to the count of course.
[08:07] Marie
What?
[08:08] lady A
His fiancée apparently died in an accident.
This is a chance to get close to him!
[08:12] Marie; internal
Of course. No one would think that her
incompetent younger sister would replace her.
[08:19] lady A
He may have barbarian blood in him,
but he is the next duke after all.
[08:22] lady B
Indeed! And whomever becomes the duke's wife
can certainly stand proudly in society.
[08:27] lady A
I've heard he's got a difficult
personality, but he's so handsome.
[08:31] lady B; background
Isn't he?
[08:31] Marie; internal
Barbarian?
[08:34] Marie; internal
Difficult?
[08:36] Marie; internal
Who are they talking about?

Lady Marie?
[08:43] Marie
Excuse me.
[08:44] lady A
Wh-What?
[08:47] lady B
Stop right there!
[08:48] lady B
Just who are you?
[08:49] lady A
Indeed! Who do you think you are?
[08:51] Marie
I am betroth— I am an
associate of the count's!
[08:56] Lady A; B
What?
[08:57] Mio
Lady Marie, I will hold
them here to the last!
[09:00] Marie
Thank you, Mio!
[09:02] ladies
Get out of my way! Who are you?
[09:06] Marie; internal
What was that? They all just
said whatever they liked.
[09:09] Marie; internal
All I did was discover something I liked...
[09:12] Marie; internal
and he's so kind that he
smiled at me so happily.
[09:15] Marie; internal
There's no reason
to ridicule him like that!
[09:18] Marie; internal
Even if there were...
[09:21] Marie; internal
it would only be for drawing
a losing prospect.
[09:25] Kyros
What are you thinking?
[09:28] Kyros
Why did you tell me to enter
the swordsmanship competition?
[09:32] Luiphon
You did excellent work! Thanks to
you, it was a rousing success!
[09:36] Kyros
That smile is infuriating.
[09:38] Kyros
Was it you who exposed my
identity to the crowd?
[09:42] Marie
C-Congratulations on your win!
[09:48] Kyros
I've finally begun hallucinating.
[09:50] Marie
U-Um...
[09:51] Kyros
Are you the real Marie?! In the flesh?
[09:54] Kyros
The one who's like a living miracle?!
[09:55] Marie
Lord Kyros?
[09:57] Luiphon
I invited her.
[09:59] Kyros
What?!
[10:00] Luiphon
I wanted to show her how
dashing you are, Kyros.
[10:04] Luiphon
Though, it seems she wasn't
particularly pleased by it.
[10:09] Kyros
Marie doesn't like brutality.
[10:12] Luiphon
Or aristocratic things either.
[10:14] Kyros
That's right. And I don't want to
force anyone else's values on her.
[10:17] Kyros
Marie's wishes are my only priority.
[10:19] Luiphon
Well. You certainly seem quite besotted...
[10:23] Luiphon
but she doesn't seem happy about it.
[10:26] Luiphon
She's simply replacing her older sister
in a political marriage, isn't she?
[10:32] Luiphon
You'd have gotten engaged no matter what
kind of man you faced. Isn't that right?
[10:38] Marie
I...
[10:40] Marie; internal
It's true that when I was first
taken to Granado Castle...
[10:44] Marie; internal
I didn't even know what
Lord Kyros looked like.
[10:47] Marie; internal
But...
[10:49] Luiphon
As I thought, you don't think anything
of Kyros, let alone love him.
[10:53] Kyros
Stop attacking her. What
are you so upset about?
[10:55] Luiphon
When I heard that you were getting
engaged, I was overjoyed.
[10:59] Luiphon
My dear, obstinate friend, who had turned away
every noblewoman, had finally found his spring.
[11:06] Luiphon
But in the end...
[11:09] Luiphon
A political marriage?
[11:11] Luiphon
And to a woman who is uneasy with
the customs of the nobility,
[11:14] Luiphon
who sees no merit in your efforts, Kyros?
[11:17] Luiphon
She's her parents' pawn and—
[11:18] Kyros
What is the meaning of this?! Did you
invite Marie here just to disparage her?
[11:22] Luiphon
Not at all. I'm also laughing
at your pathetic state.
[11:25] Luiphon
Coward. The old you would have punched me.
[11:29] Kyros
Marie is here!
[11:30] Kyros
And even the old me never
threw the first punch!
[11:33] Luiphon
You're just afraid of me. After all, you've
never once beaten me in a sword fight,
[11:38] Luiphon
you coward!
[11:41] Kyros
You never noticed that I was
letting you have the glory,
[11:44] Kyros
your highness?
[11:59] Luiphon
Earlier, the arena was engulfed in cheers.
This time, let's stain it with screams.
[12:06] Kyros
Mark my words, I will make you
apologize for insulting Marie.
[12:14] Marie
Wait, please!
[12:15] Marie
Please mend things with him!
What Prince Luiphon said is true!
[12:19] Marie
I can't blame anyone for saying
that I've sold myself.
[12:22] Marie
I am foolish and timid, and I've always
done as my parents have told me.
[12:27] Marie
But more than any of those things...
[12:29] Marie
it's people ridiculing you because
of me that I cannot bear!
[12:34] Marie
I'm sorry, I... I only
ever cause you trouble.
[12:41] Kyros
He only ridicules me out of
pity for my one-sided love.
[12:48] Kyros
I'm sure that he can't stand
seeing his rival brought so low.
[12:53] Kyros
Despite how he seems, he's a passionate man.
[12:57] Kyros
But... whatever his reasons, it doesn't
mean he's allowed to disparage you, Marie.
[13:02] Kyros
I will face him head on, defeat him,
and make him take it all back!
[13:07] Marie
Thank you for being angry on my behalf.
[13:10] Marie
But it's all right. I will
regain my honor myself!
[13:14] Marie
More importantly for Prince Luiphon...
[13:18] Marie
Lord Kyros, it's the fact that he called
you a coward that I want him to correct.
[13:22] Marie
I found myself infuriated too.
[13:24] Kyros
Very well. Then, as one going into battle,
I ask for you to bestow a good luck kiss.
[13:29] Marie
What?
[13:30] Kyros
Just a jest.
[13:35] Kyros
And now, I'll go pummel my
best friend into the ground.
[13:38] Marie
R-Right.
[13:43] referee
And now...
[13:45] referee
we have the winner of the swordsmanship
contest, Count Kyros Granado,
[13:48] referee
and the third prince of the Kingdom
of Diltz, the captain of the knights,
[13:51] referee
his highness, Luiphon Sandhalkia Diltz,
in a special exhibition match!
[13:55] Marie; internal
You can do this, Lord Kyros.
[13:59] Kyros
Luiphon, put on your helmet.
You'll get gravely injured.
[14:02] Luiphon
And you, dear Kyros.
[14:03] Luiphon
If that noble nose of yours gets plucked
off, sweet Marie might finally hate you.
[14:07] Luiphon
Put your helmet on.
[14:13] referee
Th-Then...
[14:16] referee
Begin!
[14:28] Luiphon
It seems your skills haven't declined!
[14:32] Kyros
Neither have yours!
[14:39] Mio
They seem equally matched
in strength, but...
[14:43] Luiphon
I have you!
[14:50] Marie
Lord Kyros, don't let him beat you!
[15:00] Luiphon
That's an interesting move to make!
[15:04] Marie
What? Is that allowed?!

Definitely not.

Don't worry, Marie.

I will take this moment

Together, Lady Marie and I will
serve this kingdom to our utmost.

Betrothed? Lord Kyros?

Who is Baron Shaderan?
[16:37] Kyros

[16:38] Kyros
Everyone wants to see your face.
[16:41] Marie
B-But...
[16:43] Marie; internal
Everyone is expecting a beauty
the equal of Lord Kyros.
[16:47] Marie; internal
Someone like me will only embarrass him.
[16:51] Marie; internal
I'm scared.
[16:58] Kyros
It's all right. You are a far more
wonderful woman than you know.
[17:03] Kyros
And no matter what happens, I
will always be by your side.
[17:06] Kyros
You are beautiful!
[17:08] Marie; internal
There are so many things
that frighten me...

How lovely!

[17:36] Marie
Excuse me.

Oh, you're the one from this afternoon!
[17:40] stall owner
Sorry that I couldn't stop the
prince's awful pranks.
[17:43] Marie
Not at all. Please don't worry.
More importantly...
[17:46] Marie
I'd love to join the peeling contest this time!
[17:49] stall owner
You sure are an odd one!
[17:51] stall owner
Here you are.
[17:53] Marie
Thank you. I can't wait to test my skill.
[17:56] Marie
What?
[17:57] Kyros
This seems like fun.
[17:59] Marie
Lord Kyros?
[18:00] Kyros
May I try this with you?
[18:01] Marie
Y-Yes.
[18:10] Marie
You're very good.
[18:11] Kyros
I have to camp out for work sometimes.
[18:14] Marie
How is Prince Luiphon?
[18:16] Luiphon
In the prime of health.
[18:22] Kyros
That's your fault, Luiphon. You do one, too.
[18:24] Luiphon
What?! Why do I have to?
[18:26] Kyros
Here.
[18:28] Kyros
Marie, are there any tricks to it?
[18:30] Marie
Y-Yes!
[18:31] Marie
First, you face the stem downwards,
then you rotate it sideways.
[18:37] Kyros
You're really good at this!
[18:40] Marie
Yes, I'm quite good at peeling things.
[18:42] Marie
After all, my life depended on leaving
as much of the edible parts as possible.
[18:46] Kyros
You're tougher than you seem. And
I love that part of you too!
[18:50] Marie
Not really.
[18:52] Luiphon
The woman doesn't even like you.
[18:54] Luiphon
Is it fun being a clown who's
racing around, going nowhere?
[18:57] Kyros
Yes, it's fun.
[18:59] Kyros
Just having Marie with me makes
every day seem to sparkle.
[19:03] Kyros
Even if she doesn't love me, when I think
that tomorrow we may grow a little closer,
[19:10] Kyros
it's so much fun I can't stand it.
[19:13] Kyros
The day that we become a true married couple
may be years, or decades, in the future,
[19:20] Kyros
but I'm certain that I will have fun
showering Marie with love until I die.
[19:25] Marie
Lord Kyros.
[19:27] Luiphon
To be frank, that doesn't make you
the least bit dashing, dear Kyros.
[19:30] Kyros
I know.
[19:32] Luiphon
Well, as long as you're satisfied...
[19:35] Luiphon
then just do as you like.
[19:37] Marie
E-Excuse me!
[19:40] Marie
I want to know all about
Lord Kyros' good qualities!
[19:43] Luiphon
What?
[19:44] Marie
And so...
[19:46] Marie
I hope you'll tell me lots
of stories again sometime!
[19:51] Marie; internal
I understand now, Your Highness.
[19:54] Marie; internal
You just wanted to talk about your
beloved best friend's best qualities.
[19:58] Marie; internal
That's why you invited me.
[20:03] Luiphon
I'm sorry about before.
[20:08] Luiphon
What is this?!
It's made for display, isn't it?
[20:11] Kyros
You should've noticed when you touched it!
[20:13] Luiphon
Blast you! I am the third prince and
captain of our renowned knights!
[20:18] Luiphon
One day I will have you both, husband and
wife, dragged off for insulting royalty!
[20:23] Luiphon; background
I am so angry right now! Don't you
understand what lèse-majesté is?
[20:25] Marie
Prince Luiphon is amusing, isn't he?
[20:28] Kyros
Yes. You'd never get tired of him, right?
[20:34] Mio
Lady Marie, I have a message to deliver
to the master, so I will be staying here.
[20:39] Mio
His valet Wolfgang will
accompany you in my stead.
[20:43] Wolfgang
Pleased to be of service, my lady.
[20:46] Marie
I see.
[20:47] Kyros
Thank you for today, Marie.
[20:50] Marie
No, thank you, Lord Kyros, for letting
me see such a dashing side of you.
[20:56] Kyros
The truth is, I'd never beaten
Luiphon in a sword bout before.
[21:02] Marie
Lord Kyros, you are a truly strong person.
[21:05] Kyros
That's because you're with me, Marie.
[21:09] Kyros
Whatever you may wish, I will devote all
of myself to make that wish come true.
[21:15] Kyros
Because everything I am
now is thanks to you.
[21:19] Kyros
I'll see you back at the castle, Marie.
[21:21] Marie
Yes.
[21:36] Marie
Good night!
[21:39] Marie
Coachman, please go now!
[21:43] Kyros
Marie! Wait, just now, you...
[21:47] Kyros
Please, wait!
[21:50] Marie; internal
In just two months from now...
[21:52] Marie; internal
I will marry the person my
sister was betrothed to.
[21:56] Marie; internal
It's a political marriage, but one
day, like a couple bound by love,
[22:02] Marie; internal
I hope we'll find happiness.
[22:04] Marie; internal
The two of us, together.
[22:10] Kyros
This does truly appear to be a
letter from the House of Shaderan.
[22:14] Mio
Yes. The handwriting is correct as well.
[22:17] Kyros
Mio...
[22:19] Kyros
Are Baron Shaderan and his wife
really Marie's birth parents?

The letter that arrived for Marie
from Baron Shaderan and his wife...
[00:07] Elvira
You good-for-nothing with your hideous red
hair, apologize to Anastasia and die!
[00:12] Kyros; internal
Her mother writes nothing
but horribly abusive words.
[00:15] Kyros; internal
And her father...
[00:17] Gregor
Marie, why haven't you returned?
[00:19] Gregor
Your work is here in this
house! Come back at once!
[00:24] Mio
The opinions of husband
and wife appear to clash.
[00:28] Kyros
Would parents really tyrannize
their own child this much?
[00:33] Kyros
Mio, while I'm gone, I'd like
you to investigate something.
[00:38] Mio
Understood.
[02:11] Marie; narration
A month has passed since the knights'
festival that struck like a storm.

[02:17] Marie
The weather is so lovely!
[02:20] Marie
Today seems like it will be a good day!
[02:24] Wolfgang
Good morning, my lady.
[02:26] Wolfgang
Are you already awake?
[02:29] Marie
Good morning. Yes, I'm already awake.
[02:32] Marie
I win today, Wolfgang.
[02:36] Wolfgang
It appears that you've beaten me.
[02:38] Caecilie
Marie! Morning!
[02:42] Wolfgang
Come now, Cillie.
[02:44] Woflgang
I do apologize. My granddaughter
is still just an apprentice.
[02:48] Marie
It's all right. Please don't worry.
[02:51] Marie
Good morning, Caecilie.
[02:52] Caecilie
Look! Tunika gave me buns!
[02:56] Caecilie
Am I cute?
[02:59] Marie
Yes, very. I've never seen any girl
they suited so well before.
[03:03] Caecilie
Right?
[03:04] Caecilie
I'll do your hair like this too, Marie.
[03:06] Caecilie
Mio has other business again
today, so I'm your attendant!
[03:11] Marie
Thank you.
[03:12] Wolfgang
By the way, my lady...
[03:15] Wolfgang
what will you be wearing today?
[03:19] Marie
Let's see. Today...
[03:25] Marie
What do you think?
[03:26] Caecilie
Marie, you're so cute!
[03:29] Wolfgang
You are truly beautiful.
[03:31] Wolfgang
If the master were to see you, he'd
embrace you before even realizing it.
[03:38] Marie; internal
L-Lately, it's so strange...
[03:40] Marie; internal
When I think of Lord Kyros, my heart...
[03:46] Caecilie
Marie, hurry up! Hurry up!
[03:50] Toppo
My lady, where are you
going in such a hurry?
[03:53] Toppo
Lunch isn't for a while yet.
[03:55] Marie
It isn't that, Toppo. You see, today is...
[03:58] Caecilie
The day the master comes home!
[04:02] Toppo
Then, today you'll be eating your
parfait with the master, won't you?
[04:05] Johan
My lady!
[04:07] Johan
Take these with you.
[04:13] Caecilie
Let's go, Marie!
[04:16] Marie
Thank you, Johan.
[04:22] Tomas
Count Kyros Granado has returned!
[04:41] Kyros
I'm back, Marie.
[04:44] Marie
W-Welcome home.
[04:47] Kyros
What are those flowers?
[04:49] Marie
I think they're damask roses.
[04:52] Marie
Johan told me to bring
them. Do you like them?
[04:57] Kyros
They aren't for me.
They're an accessory for you, Marie.
[05:02] Kyros
Though, in a way, they are
a present for me as well.
[05:05] Kyros
You are like a flower personified.
[05:08] Kyros
I nearly embraced you
without even realizing it.
[05:12] Caecilie
Marie, your face is steaming!
[05:14] Marie
Please don't mention that.
[05:15] Kyros
May I?
[05:18] Marie
What? Oh, the bouquet.
[05:21] Marie
Please do.
[05:29] Marie
P-Please, don't tease me like that!
[05:31] Kyros
I am not teasing you.
[05:36] Kyros
You have grown even more beautiful.
[05:42] Marie; internal
I-I just know he's teasing me.
[05:50] Marie; internal
I thought we'd have dinner together,
but he's already gone out again.
[05:56] Marie; internal
The betrothal ceremony is coming
together nicely, but I'm still nervous.
[06:00] Marie; internal
Aside from helping my father and
the things I learned in school...
[06:04] Marie; internal
I don't know anything.
[06:08] Marie
It's at times like this...
[06:14] Marie; internal
"The Tale of the Raggedy Red Cat."
[06:16] Marie; internal
I often read this when I
felt anxious, didn't I?
[06:34] Wolfgang
My lady, wouldn't it be better
to do this tomorrow morning?
[06:39] Marie
I'm sorry.
[06:40] Marie
Once I've found out how to
bind this book, I'll go back.
[06:51] Liu Liu
What's this?
[06:52] Liu Liu
I thought I heard footsteps, and now...
[06:54] Marie
I-It has been quite some time, Lady Liu Liu.
[06:58] Liu Liu
Miss Marie! It has been a while, hasn't it?
[07:01] Liu Liu
What's wrong? Are you looking
for something so late at night?
[07:03] Marie
Yes. My book has fallen to pieces,
and I'd like to mend it.
[07:08] Liu Liu
Well, please come in.
[07:15] Marie
This is incredible!
[07:18] Marie
It's like a dream!
[07:20] Liu Liu
You must like books.
[07:22] Marie
I do. Do you like them too, Lady Liu Liu?
[07:25] Liu Liu
I'm here for research.
My spelling in Diltzian is still shaky.
[07:30] Marie
Is that... a letter?
[07:32] Marie
Isn't there anyone you can
ask to write it for you?
[07:35] Liu Liu
Kyros is very busy,
so he's asked me to help him.
[07:40] Wolfgang
That is an invitation to attend
the betrothal ceremony, you see.
[07:44] Wolfgang
It must be written by the couple in
question, or someone close to them.
[07:50] Marie
Um, would it be wrong for me to write them?
[07:53] Liu Liu
What? You'd do that?
That would be such a help!
[07:59] Liu Liu
These are for people in
Ipsandros, so I'll write them.
[08:02] Marie
I can do the ones in Ipsian, too.
[08:05] Liu Liu
What? Miss Marie, you understand Ipsian?
[08:07] Marie
Yes, but only to read and write,
and for everyday conversation.
[08:11] Wolfgang
The lady loves Ipsandrian stories.
[08:14] Wolfgang
She came here to mend this book.
[08:17] Liu Liu
The Raggedy Red Cat?
[08:19] Liu Liu
Oh, how nostalgic!
[08:21] Marie
My older sister read it to me when I was
little. It's a book I love very much.
[08:26] Marie
And my sister seems to have learned
Ipsian from our late grandmother.
[08:31] Liu Liu
What a well-learned grandmother.
[08:34] Marie
My father says she was an eccentric
layabout who studied foreign languages.
[08:40] (Flashback) Gregor
Women don't need academics!
[08:42] (Flashback) Gregor
The reason my mother was
alone and without charm
[08:45] (Flashback) Gregor
was all due to her dabbling in academics!
[08:48] Liu Liu
What's that supposed to mean?
[08:50] Liu Liu
A clever woman who knows other languages...
[08:53] Liu Liu
She'd be quite the catch for merchants
and the nobility, wouldn't she?
[08:57] Marie
What?
[08:58] Liu Liu
Though, Ipsian isn't very practical unless
you are engaged in trade with them.
[09:03] Liu Liu
Flarian and Shainan on the other hand...
[09:05] Marie
I speak those!
[09:07] Marie
Though I studied them both on my own.
[09:09] Liu Liu
Really?
[09:10] Liu Liu
Miss Marie, you're the daughter
of a baron, aren't you?
[09:13] Marie
Many of the tenant farmers on
Shaderan lands are immigrants,
[09:17] Marie
so knowing foreign languages is
essential to properly manage things.
[09:21] Liu Liu
And you did all that, Miss Marie?
[09:23] Liu Liu
Even though it's incredibly
important work for a baron?
[09:26] Marie
Y-Yes.
[09:28] Marie
Oh, but my father put together
the management plans.
[09:31] Marie
I only really assisted in simple matters.
[09:35] Liu Liu
"Assisted in simple matters," you say?
[09:38] Marie
Y-Yes. I love to write letters.
[09:43] Marie; internal
Even though I wrote
on someone else's behalf,
[09:46] Marie; internal
it allowed me to converse
with someone as an equal.
[09:57] Liu Liu
What beautiful handwriting.
[09:59] Liu Liu
You clearly put a lot
of heart into that letter.
[10:03] Liu Liu
Sign it with your own name, please.
[10:06] Marie
What? Are you certain?
[10:08] Liu Liu
Of course.
[10:09] Liu Liu
You didn't write that on my behalf.
[10:11] Liu Liu
You're the one who composed
those lovely words, Miss Marie.
[10:17] Marie; internal
My own...
[10:20] Marie
Now that you mention it, I did... didn't I?
[10:34] Liu Liu
You know...
[10:36] Liu Liu
To be honest, I didn't expect much from you.
[10:41] Liu Liu
I heard that you were a noble daughter from
the countryside who hadn't entered society.
[10:47] Liu Liu
But you were the first person
Kyros ever proposed to...
[10:51] Liu Liu
and a long time ago, a lot
of people helped me, too.
[10:55] Liu Liu
I thought that I'd help you
wherever you might be lacking.
[10:59] Marie
I'm so sorry!
[11:00] Liu Liu
But I take it all back!
[11:03] Liu Liu
I'm so happy that you'll be my son's wife!
[11:05] Liu Liu
I've come to love you!
[11:09] Liu Liu
I am an imperfect mother,
but I hope we'll get along well.
[11:17] Marie
I-I'm so sorry!
[11:19] Marie
It isn't what you think!
[11:21] Liu Liu
Don't worry. It's all right.
Cry as much as you like.
[11:35] Marie; narration
I wasn't sad at all, but for some
reason, my tears just wouldn't stop.
[11:40] Marie; narration
I cried like a baby.
[11:56] Mio
Welcome home, Master.
[11:59] Mio
Before you go and see Lady Marie...
[12:01] Mio
may I have a moment of your time?
[12:05] Mio
I've finished investigating the
matter you inquired about.
[12:09] Kyros
Marie really is the daughter
of the baron and his wife.
[12:13] Kyros
Everyone in the Shaderan
family is related by blood.
[12:16] Kyros
Are you certain about these results?
[12:18] Mio
Yes, sir.
[12:20] Mio
The records of noble family trees kept
safe in the Royal Palace Library
[12:23] Mio
show no evidence of an adopted
child or remarriage.
[12:26] Kyros
Could the baron have
forced himself on a maid?
[12:29] Kyros
Or his wife could have had an affair.
[12:31] Mio
These records come from the royal
capital's maternity hospitals.
[12:34] Kyros
Records of the births
of Marie and Anastasia?
[12:37] Mio
The younger brother was born at home,
[12:39] Mio
but Lady Elvira definitely
gave birth to the sisters.
[12:42] Kyros
How did she seem at the time?
[12:44] Mio
I was told that both parents
shed tears of joy.
[12:48] Kyros
Could there have been
a mix-up at the hospital?
[12:51] Mio
It's a small hospital with just one bed.
[12:53] Mio
I believe the chances of
that are incredibly slim.
[12:57] Kyros
Then the people who spew these cursed
words at her are her actual parents?
[13:03] Mio
Master, if it were human nature for parents
to love their children unconditionally,
[13:07] Mio
and to protect them through anything,
[13:09] Mio
then I would not be here.
[13:12] Mio
I was told that this arrived this morning.
[13:19] Kyros
"Father on his deathbed. Return at once."
[13:22] Kyros
This is basically a threat.
[13:24] Mio
If she sees this, I believe that Lady
Marie will return to her parents' house.
[13:31] Kyros; internal
What can I do to protect Marie?
[13:35] Kyros; internal
And even if I can protect her, keeping her
locked in this fortress like it's a birdcage...
[13:41] Kyros; internal
Would that bring her happiness?
[13:44] Liu Liu
Miss Marie, drop your hips straight down.
[13:49] Liu Liu
Do not forget to smile.
[13:51] Marie
Yes, my lady!
[13:52] Liu Liu
Emotions are key to a curtsy.
[13:54] Liu Liu
If you show them respect without expressing
a feeling of welcome, then there's no point!
[13:58] Marie
Yes, my lady!
[13:59] Kyros; internal
Is she being bullied by her
future mother-in-law?!
[14:03] Kyros
Liu Liu, what are you doing?!
[14:05] Marie
Oh, Lord Kyros! Welcome home!
[14:10] Liu Liu
Kyros! You've arrived at the perfect
time. Be her practice partner.
[14:15] Kyros
Practice partner?
[14:16] Liu Liu
That's right. For when Miss Marie has
to meet royalty and other nobility.
[14:20] Kyros
What? I told you that you don't have
to make her do any of this, didn't I?
[14:23] Kyros
You and I can handle all of that
at the betrothal ceremony.
[14:26] Kyros
Marie has never been
introduced into society!
[14:29] Liu Liu
That's why she's practicing.
[14:31] Liu Liu
It'll be fine. Miss Marie is clever,
and she has an aptitude for this.
[14:35] Liu Liu
Her posture is quite nice, too.
[14:37] Marie
I trained by chopping wood.
[14:39] Liu Liu
I see. That's why your figure is so stylish.
[14:42] Marie
Oh, but it isn't!
[14:44] Kyros; internal
I wanted Marie to be able to
dress in beautiful things,
[14:47] Kyros; internal
and to help her live a happy,
peaceful life, but...
[14:53] Caecilie
Master!
[14:55] Caecilie
Marie's curtsy is really stylish!
[14:58] Kyros
Is it?
[15:02] Marie
Thank you so much for coming to
celebrate the two of us today.
[15:10] Liu Liu
And it isn't just the etiquette
involved in greetings!
[15:13] Liu Liu
Miss Marie wrote all the
thank you letters, too.
[15:17] Kyros
Why are you working her so hard?
[15:19] Kyros
That makes us no different
from the Shaderan—
[15:21] Liu Liu
Son, remember this.
[15:24] Liu Liu
Love and overprotectiveness
are not the same.
[15:26] Liu Liu
Women are not baby birds.
[15:28] Liu Liu
Don't trap her in a cage. Make sure
she has the chance to take flight.
[15:33] Marie
Um, did I do it well?
[15:37] Kyros
Yes. It was irreproachable. Truly lovely.
[15:40] Kyros
You've worked hard.
[15:42] Marie
Yes, I have!
[15:45] Kyros; internal
The first time I met her...
[15:48] Kyros; internal
she smiled that same way.
[15:51] Liu Liu
Now then!
[15:52] Liu Liu
Shall we take a little break?
[15:54] Liu Liu
Let's all have tea together.
[15:56] Caecilie
Yay! Snacks!
[15:58] Caecilie
I want to eat something sweet.
[16:00] Liu Liu
Indeed! I'm sure Toppo will have
something prepared for us.
[16:03] Kyros
Wait, Marie.
[16:04] Caecilie
Hooray!
[16:05] Kyros
There's something I have to tell you.
[16:08] Marie
Me?
[16:10] Kyros
This is from your father.
[16:13] Kyros
I'm sorry, but I worry about you
returning alone. I'll go with—
[16:17] Marie
There's no need for me to return.
[16:19] Kyros
What?
[16:20] Marie
Because this is a lie.
[16:23] Marie
This is my father's handwriting.
[16:26] Marie
A person supposedly on
his deathbed wrote this.
[16:28] Marie
By chance, have other
demanding letters arrived?
[16:32] Kyros
That's...
[16:34] Marie
Thank you.
[16:36] Marie
They must have had truly
sickening things written in them,
[16:39] Marie
and you protected me, didn't you?
[16:42] Kyros
No, I'm sorry for acting
without your permission.
[16:45] Marie
Hiring people would cost money.
[16:48] Marie
I'm sure he has work that he
wants to foist off on me.
[16:51] Marie
It isn't that he wants to see me.
[16:55] Kyros
Marie...
[16:56] Marie
My parents hate me, don't they?
[17:00] Marie
The way they yelled at me all the time...
[17:04] Marie
they weren't disciplining me.
[17:06] Kyros; internal
Before, no matter how
much Marie was bullied,
[17:10] Kyros; internal
she thought it was natural because she
thought she wasn't lovely, but now...
[17:17] Kyros
You've grown so strong, Marie.
[17:22] Marie
It's all thanks to the people here in
the palace, and to you, Lord Kyros.
[17:26] Marie
Thank you for treating me with such care.
[17:34] Marie
Lord Kyros?
[17:38] Kyros
I-I'm sorry!
[17:40] Marie
Y-Yes. Not at all.
[17:52] Tunika
My lady, your dress today
is lovely, as usual.
[17:56] Marie
Thank you. Cillie picked it out for me.
[17:59] Caecilie
Right? She's so cute!
[18:02] Kyros; internal
The way this is going, I can also...
[18:05] Kyros
Marie!
[18:06] Kyros
You look adorable.
SIGN SILENCE...
[18:12] Kyros; internal
Wh-Why?
[18:14] Kyros; internal
Does she hate me?
[18:16] Marie
I-I'm sorry.
[18:18] Marie
I-I'm not accustomed to hearing
such things from gentlemen.
[18:22] Kyros
I see. I'm sorry for making you nervous.
[18:26] Toppo
And now, everyone!
[18:28] Toppo
A blueberry tart!
[18:30] Caecilie
Hooray!
[18:32] Tunika
It looks delicious!
[18:33] Toppo
Oh, my lady! That dress is incredible!
[18:37] Marie
Really? Thank you!
[18:39] Kyros; internal
Why? Toppo is a man, too.
[18:42] Kyros; internal
She already treats everyone
else as family, but...
[18:45] Kyros; internal
Is it because I've been away so much?
[18:49] Kyros
Marie, I will stay by your
side from now on, so—
[18:51] Marie
Oh, Mio!
[18:53] Marie
You're back. Welcome home.
[18:56] Mio
Yes. I apologize for any trouble
my absence may have caused you.
[19:01] Mio
Master, I'm terribly sorry to
interrupt while you are relaxing...
[19:05] Kyros
What is it?
[19:06] Mio
I would like to request a leave of absence.
[19:08] Mio
There is somewhere rather
remote that I would like to visit.
[19:12] Marie
Oh no! But you've only just returned!
[19:16] Mio
I'm so sorry, Lady Marie.
[19:20] Mio
But even I have someone
I want to go and see.
[19:23] Marie
Oh, how lovely! I'm sorry for saying
anything that might keep you from going.
[19:27] Mio
Not at all. It made me happy to hear it.
[19:30] Mio
Lady Marie, with the betrothal
ceremony drawing near,
[19:32] Mio
please take some time
to bond privately with the master.
[19:37] Marie
Y-Yes, you're right. I'll do my best.
[19:44] Mio
What is all that?
[19:46] Kyros
It's for Baron Shaderan and his wife.
[19:48] Kyros
I stressed that they are not allowed
to speak badly of my wife,
[19:51] Kyros
and I wrote out all of Marie's
lovely qualities in detail.
[19:54] Mio
What are you doing with yourself?
[19:56] Kyros
If by chance you see the
baron where you're going,
[19:59] Kyros
I thought you could clobber him with it.
[20:02] Mio
Well, well.
[20:04] Kyros
Use this.
[20:05] Kyros
And use the palace carriage, too.
[20:07] Kyros
Also, take at least one attendant with you.
[20:11] Mio
I'm quite strong.
[20:13] Kyros
I know.
[20:15] Kyros
I want someone with you so that you
don't have to use that strength.
[20:19] Kyros
Don't take the villain's role, Mio.
[20:27] Tomas
Um, why am I here...
[20:30] Tomas
Miss Mio?
[20:33] Mio
The master told me to bring someone.
[20:35] Tomas
B-But isn't this a bad idea?
[20:37] Tomas
You're going to see your
sweetheart, aren't you?
[20:41] Mio
If I really were seeing a
sweetheart, then it would be bad.
[20:44] Tomas
Then, is it a friend?
[20:46] Tomas
Miss Mio, you have friends?
[20:48] Mio
The legends of your homeland, Louhav Island,
[20:50] Mio
say that anyone who dies
before the age of eighteen
[20:52] Mio
can travel to paradise, without exception.
[20:54] Mio
Congrats! Have a nice trip!
[20:55] Tomas
I'm sorry! I don't want to die!
[20:58] Mio
You're meant to ward off bandits.
[21:01] Mio
There was a tragic accident
here two months ago, you see.
[21:05] Tomas
An accident two months ago?
[21:08] Tomas
Oh, are you traveling to the Shaderan lands?
[21:13] Tomas
What's this?
[21:15] Tomas
"Big sis, come home. Elder
sister is already home."
SIGN Big sis, come home.
Elder sister is already home.
SIGN From Cedric
[21:20] Tomas
"From Cedric."
[21:22] Tomas
Who's Cedric?
[21:24] Mio
Lady Marie's younger brother
who turns six this year.
[21:27] Mio
A letter was included in
the package we received earlier.
[21:31] Tomas
What? But Lady Marie's older
sister passed away, didn't she?
[21:35] Tomas
Her carriage fell from a cliff
with her inside, didn't it?
[21:38] Mio
No.
[21:39] Mio
According to a more detailed investigation,
[21:41] Mio
they were attacked by
bandits on the flatlands,
[21:43] Mio
and as they fled along the river, the
carriage overturned in the muddy waters.
[21:48] Tomas
Then, is it possible...
[21:51] Mio
The river water was cold, and the rain from
the previous day had caused it to swell.
[21:56] Mio
Rescuing anyone who fell
in would be impossible.
[21:59] Tomas
Y-Yes, you're right.
[22:01] Tomas
But if that's true...
[22:04] Tomas
then what about this letter?
[22:13] Elvira
Oh, your hair is as beautiful as silk.
[22:17] Elvira
My lovely, lovely Anastasia.
[23:58] Tomas
This is Tomas.
[24:00] Tomas
Doing as Miss Mio said and setting
out on a journey is fine with me,
[24:04] Tomas
but I never imagined things
would turn out like this.
[24:07] Tomas
Miss Mio has me dancing to her tune. I feel
like my life has gotten shorter because of it.
[24:13] Tomas
Next time, "You're So Close, I
Think You May Make Me Dizzy."

SIGN Episode 7 "You're So Close, I Think You May Make Me Dizzy"
[00:07] Mio
Two months ago,
[00:09] Mio
Lady Anastasia got into a carriage
rented by Baron Shaderan
[00:13] Mio
and headed for Granado Castle.
[00:20] Mio
For a few days, she traveled in peace,
[00:24] Mio
then we're told that near the royal
capital, she was set upon by bandits.
[00:30] Mio
While Lady Anastasia was
desperately trying to escape...
[00:35] Mio
she fell into the river, which
had swollen with the rain.
[00:39] Mio
The driver tried to rescue her,
[00:41] Mio
but wounds inflicted by the
bandits made it impossible.
[00:44] Mio
The carriage was destroyed,
and everything it carried was stolen.
[00:49] Mio
This summary of the incident is
based on the driver's testimony
[00:52] Mio
and the police investigation.
[00:55] Mio
Lady Anastasia's body hasn't been found,
[00:58] Mio
but they believe the chance
of her survival is dismal.
[01:00] Tomas
But the letter from her little brother...
[01:03] Tomas
"Elder sister is already home."
[01:07] Tomas
If Miss Anastasia is alive,
[01:10] Tomas
won't Lady Marie try to distance
herself from Lord Kyros?
[01:13] Mio
The master's love for her is good and true.
[01:17] Mio
Which means that it is necessary
for someone to play the villain.
[01:21] Tomas
Y-You don't mean that you'll do
something to Miss Anastasia...
[01:25] Mio
No.
[01:26] Mio
The master has forbidden me
from using violent methods.
[01:29] Mio
I won't do anything extreme.
Well, not overly so.
[01:31] Tomas
Wh-What does "not overly so"
mean? Can I just go home now?
[01:35] Mio
"Companions enrich a journey"
is a favorite proverb of mine.
[01:40] Mio
Besides...
[01:41] Mio
it's possible that more than just
snakes will dart from the underbrush.
[03:17] Marie; narration
A few days after Mio left...
[03:24] Kyros
Marie, starting today, I'll be your
attendant. I look forward to serving.
[03:27] Marie
What?
[03:29] Kyros
Oh. As you might expect, the maid
uniforms aren't sized to fit me.
[03:33] Marie
Th-That wasn't my concern.
[03:35] Kyros
A lady's maid is relied upon in an
emotional sense as well, right?
[03:39] Marie
Well...
[03:40] Marie
We do spend a lot of time together, so
it is easy to feel rather close to them.
[03:45] Kyros
That's it.
[03:46] Kyros
Marie, I want to become the
person you get along with best.
[03:49] Kyros
That's why I decided to
become your attendant.
[03:55] Marie; internal
His eyes are so clear.
[04:02] Kyros
What do you think? Well done
for my first time, isn't it?
[04:06] Marie
Y-Yes. Thank you.
[04:09] Kyros
All right. Next is your dress, correct?
[04:12] Marie; internal
What? He can't mean that he'll dress me!
[04:14] Marie; internal
I couldn't endure that! I'll die!
[04:17] Kyros
What do you say? If you don't have
a particular one in mind, I'll—
[04:20] Cillie
You broke your promise!
[04:24] Cillie
I said I'd dress her, didn't I?!
[04:26] Kyros
Th-That's no reason to come flying at me!
[04:28] Cillie
Master, you just want to touch
Marie, don't you? You lecher!
[04:33] Wolfgang
Cillie has been quite disrespectful.
[04:36] Wolfgang
However, Master, the closeness
that makes you happy
[04:38] Wolfgang
seems to be a level of closeness
that makes Lady Marie nervous.
[04:42] Wolfgang
One should temper one's eagerness.
SIGN The Next Day
[04:50] Kyros
Marie, let's go on a date!
[04:54] Marie
What?
[04:56] Kyros
This morning, a letter arrived from Luiphon.
[04:59] Kyros
He writes, "I've prepared a tremendous gift
for you, so please come to the royal capital."
SIGN Third Prince
[05:04] Kyros
Though, knowing him,
I wouldn't expect too much.
[05:08] Kyros
And so...
[05:10] Kyros
Will you go out with me? Just the two of us?
[05:16] Marie
Yes!
[05:28] Kyros
Those kind of clothes are
nice, too. You look lovely.
[05:30] Marie
Thank you, Lord Kyros.
You look wonderful as well.
[05:34] Kyros
Thank you.
[05:36] Kyros
But if you talk like that,
people will find out who I am.
[05:39] Kyros
Call me just "Kyros," with no title.
[05:42] Marie
What? What?!
[05:43] Kyros
There's still time before our
appointment with Luiphon.
[05:46] Myros
Let's go look around at everything first.
[05:51] Kyros
If we get separated or lost, then this rare
chance at a date will be ruined, right?
[06:02] Marie
Th-Then, shall—
[06:05] Marie
Let's go, Kyros.
[06:15] Tomas
This is where Lady Marie is from?
[06:18] Mio
In the Shaderan lands, aside from
largely wheat-based farming,
[06:21] Mio
raising cattle makes up the
majority of the industry.
[06:24] Tomas
Really? I'd heard they were poor,
so I imagined a small, dried-up village.
[06:30] Mio
It's good land.
[06:31] Mio
However, after the war, taxes were
levied according to a region's size,
[06:36] Mio
so they've had to continue
cultivating large swathes of land.
[06:39] Mio
Maintaining the land and rotation
of use is a lord's job,
[06:43] Mio
but it doesn't appear to be done well here.
[06:52] Tomas
Um, where are we?
[06:54] Mio
Lady Marie's old school.
[06:56] Tomas
What?
[06:59] receptionist
I haven't seen you before.
Are you a new student?
[07:03] Mio
Well, I came from the royal capital
to learn about farming, you see.
[07:08] Mio
And I was thinking that I'd like
to ask the students here about it.
[07:11] Mio
Are there any girls here?
[07:13] receptionist
Well, up until last year, the daughter of
Baron Shaderan attended our school, but now...
[07:18] Mio
Oh my! A baron's daughter?
I couldn't possibly!
[07:22] Mio
Isn't there anyone who's graduated
that I could speak to more casually?
[07:25] receptionist
I believe the daughter of the
local innkeeper also attended,
[07:29] receptionist
but she found work in the royal
capital, and withdrew mid-term.
[07:32] receptionist
I think her name was Karina.
[07:35] Mio
That serves my purposes quite nicely.
[07:40] Mrs. Burton
Yes? May I ask who you are?
[07:42] Mio
You are Karina Burton's mother, correct?
[07:45] Mio
I am a detective from the capital.
[07:47] Mio
The truth is, your daughter may have
gotten caught up in a certain incident.
[07:52] Mrs. Burton
What?!
[07:53] Mio
I need to check your daughter's student
identification from when she attended school.
[07:58] Mio
If possible, I'd like to
borrow it for a while.
[08:02] Tomas
Th-There should be limits to this nonsense.
[08:06] Mio
I didn't lie.
[08:08] Mio
Unlike the police, being a detective is a
job where calling yourself one makes you one.
[08:11] Tomas
But you talked about some kind of incident.
[08:14] Mio
A baron's daughter, thought to have died
in an accident, may still be alive.
[08:17] Mio
That's quite the incident, isn't it?
[08:19] Mio
And the possibility that Karina
Burton is involved isn't zero.
[08:22] Tomas
You're being reckless, Miss Mio.
[08:26] Mio
Please don't worry.
[08:27] Mio
The big lies begin now.
[08:30] Tomas
No! You're scaring me!
[08:35] Mio
The Shaderan residence is just over there.
[08:37] Mio
Please be careful not to
expose your background.
[08:40] Tomas
Um, shouldn't we discuss
this before we do it?
[08:43] Mio
Please adapt as we go.
[08:47] Tomas
I'll just keep quiet the whole time.
[08:53] Tomas
This is an impressive mansion!
[08:56] Mio
Yes, it is. However, it isn't
being managed very well.
[09:01] Mio
It wasn't this bad previously, but...
[09:09] Tomas
Miss Mio?!
[09:11] Tania
Hey! Who are you?
[09:14] Tania
If you're tradesmen, go around the back!
[09:16] Tania
You aren't debt collectors, are you?
[09:19] Mio
I'm Karina! This is my fiancé, Henry!
[09:23] Mio
This is my friend's house, and when we
arrived, the gate was open, so we came in!
[09:26] Mio
Sorry!
[09:27] Tania
What?
[09:28] Mio
I just told you! I'm dear Marie's friend!
[09:32] Tania
A friend? Of that raggedy girl?
[09:36] Mio
I met Marie in the capital! We went to
the same school, so we became friends.
[09:41] Tania
It's true, that girl is supposedly
at the capital right now.
[09:45] Mio
When I said I'd be visiting home,
[09:47] Mio
she asked me if I'd come and
pick up something she'd wanted.
[09:51] Mio
Miss, will you let me
into dear Marie's room?
[09:59] Tania
Make sure you leave as soon as you're done.
[10:10] Tania
This is it.
[10:14] Tania
That girl was never good at the basics.
[10:17] Tania
Cooking and cleaning took her so
long she never really finished,
[10:21] Tania
so she started sleeping here.
[10:23] Mio
Why did Marie have to work so hard?
[10:27] Tania
Because she wasn't the least bit cute.
[10:29] Tania
A woman with no prospect
of marriage has to work.
[10:33] Mio
Then, when did she stop being cute?
[10:36] Tania
She's been like that since she was born!
[10:39] Tania
Compared with Lady Anastasia, she's
impertinent and completely unlovable.
[10:43] Tania
Her grandmother, Lady Sasha, was the one
person who showed her some affection.
[10:48] Mio
Sasha...
[10:51] Cedric
Big Sis Marie?!
[10:55] Cedric
H-Huh?
[10:56] Gregor
Cedric!
[10:57] Gregor
What are you doing?
[11:02] Gregor
Who are you two?
[11:05] Tomas; internal
Baron Shaderan.
[11:07] Mio
Pleased to meet you! I'm Karina Burton!
[11:10] Mio
Dear Marie is my friend!
[11:16] Gregor
I now understand what brought
the two of you here, but...
[11:21] Gregor
That Tania! She loves her jokes!
[11:24] Gregor
This is a storage shed, isn't it?
[11:26] Gregor
It couldn't possibly be
my darling Marie's room.
[11:30] Tania
What?
[11:31] Gregor
I'll show you to the mansion.
[11:33] Gregor
Cedric!
[11:34] Gregor
You go back to your room
and continue your studies!
[11:37] Cedric
Y-Yes, sir.
[11:39] Gregor
This is the first time a friend
of Marie's has visited us.
[11:44] Gregor
She's a bookworm, and so shy.
Don't you find her a bit gloomy?
[11:48] Mio
What? Marie is so cheerful and
kind, everyone loves her!
[11:54] Gregor
I see. As her father,
I'm happy to hear that.
[11:57] Gregor
By the way, what is it that
you've come to pick up?
[12:02] Mio
It's something precious to
a girl, so it's a secret.
[12:05] Mio
She asked me to look for it.
[12:10] Gregor
Go right in. This is Marie's room.
[12:15] Tomas; internal
What? So she did have a
proper room after all!
[12:18] Mio
Oh, are you playing tricks on us too, Baron?
[12:20] Mio
This is her sister's room, isn't it?
[12:25] Gregor
What makes you think that?
[12:26] Mio
Dear Marie loves to study.
[12:28] Mio
It'd be odd if her room didn't
have bookshelves in it!
[12:31] Gregor
That's...
[12:33] Mio
Now, stop playing silly
pranks. You can't trick me.
[12:40] Gregor
Sorry about that! I really will
show you the way this time!
[12:45] Gregor
Here. This is Marie's room.
[12:47] Gregor
I'll leave, so search as much as you like.
[12:55] Tomas
Is this really Lady Marie's room?
[13:01] Tomas
What?
[13:02] Tomas
Wait! What are you doing?
[13:05] Mio
Shh! Quiet.
[13:06] Elvira
Really? I'm so glad to hear it.
[13:10] Mio
The wife's room seems
to be next to this one.
[13:12] Tomas
But...
[13:14] Elvira
That's so true, Anastasia.
[13:23] Gregor
My dear guests, I'm so sorry!
[13:26] Gregor
We're supposed to go out
as a family, you see.
[13:29] Gregor
Can I ask you to leave for today?
[13:31] Mio
Oh, really? Well then,
we'll excuse ourselves here.
[13:37] Gregor
Oh, and when you get back,
could you tell Marie something for me?
[13:40] Gregor
If there's something she wants, she
should come back and get it herself.
[13:44] Mio
That's so true! But dear Marie seems so busy.
[13:48] Mio
After all, there's only a month left until
her betrothal ceremony to the count!
[13:52] Gregor
That may be true...
[13:54] Gregor
but if the ceremony hasn't happened,
then she isn't engaged.
[13:57] Gregor
That girl still belongs to me,
and I'm not letting anyone steal her.
[14:02] Mio
Then, Marie must be very important to you.
[14:07] Gregor
I suppose so.
[14:08] Elvira
Oh my.
[14:10] Elvira
We have guests? I'll go and
prepare some tea right away.
[14:14] Gregor
No, they were just leaving.
And we're all going out.
[14:18] Elvira
Really? Then if you'll wait just a moment...
[14:22] Tomas; internal
That's Lady Marie's mother?
[14:25] Elvira
Mama's going out now.
[14:28] Elvira
Be a good girl and wait,
won't you, Anastasia?
[14:39] Gregor
Well, enjoy your visit home.
[14:42] Mio
I will! If you'll excuse us.
[14:48] Tomas
I broke out in a cold sweat.
[14:50] Mio
We'll wait a bit, then return to the mansion.
[14:53] Tomas
What?!
[14:58] Tomas
Ow.
[15:00] Mio
We're lucky that they didn't lock up.
[15:02] Mio
Now, come before the maid notices.
[15:07] Tomas
M-Miss Mio, you are a maid, aren't you?
[15:09] Mio
I am, without question, a maid. Why?
[15:21] Mio
So you did survive... Lady Anastasia.
[15:41] Tomas
A-A doll?
[15:52] Tomas
Do you think that the shock of losing Miss
Anastasia drove Baroness Elvira insane?
[15:59] Mio
No, she's sane.
[16:01] Mio
She understands that it's just a doll.
[16:05] Mio
It was made very recently.
Most likely by the baroness herself.
[16:10] Tomas
But it looks so much like a real person.
[16:13] Mio
Well, the hair was real human hair.
[16:16] Tomas
Human hair?!
[16:17] Mio
And the dress, too.
[16:19] Mio
Using the police
investigations as reference,
[16:21] Mio
there's no doubt she was wearing
that dress during the accident.
[16:25] Tomas
W-Wait. Miss Anastasia fell into the
river and her body wasn't found, right?
[16:31] Tomas
Then how did her hair and clothes...
[16:33] Mio
Indeed. There are inconsistencies with the
events of the accident as we know them.
[16:38] Mio
And if that's the case...
[16:41] Mio
Please return us immediately.
There is someone I must meet with.
[16:45] Tomas
Do you mean...
[16:47] Mio
The driver of the hired carriage... is lying.
[16:57] Marie
Delicious!
[16:58] Marie
So these are the flavors of Ipsandros.
[17:01] Kyros
I often came here while I was a student.
[17:03] Kyros
The food in the dormitory
was all too refined.
[17:06] Marie
You attended the Royal Academy just
like Prince Luiphon, didn't you?
[17:09] Kyros
Yes.
[17:10] Kyros
From the age of twelve to the age of
eighteen, I attended and learned many things.
[17:14] Marie; internal
What a strange sort of feeling.
[17:17] Marie; internal
Lord Kyros was a young child once, too.
[17:21] Kyros
All right. For dessert, we'll have dondurma!
[17:24] Marie
Dondurma? In Ipsian, that means
"a frozen thing," doesn't it?
[17:29] stall owner
Here you go!
[17:33] stall owner
There you go! Enjoy!
[17:36] Marie
Th-Thank you.
[17:39] Marie
What?

What?
[17:41] Marie
Wait! Oh!
SIGN PRECIOUS...
[17:43] Marie
Please don't move!

Honestly! Please control yourself!
[17:47] stall owner
Of course!
[17:49] Marie
Oh, it's chewy! It's quite delicious!
[17:52] Marie
Kyros, would you like to have some... too?
[17:54] Kyros
Th-The cuteness is too much. It's killing me.
[17:57] Marie
Honestly!
[18:07] Marie
Th-This is incredible!
[18:09] Kyros
This shop handles goods from every country.
[18:12] Kyros
Foreign goods are popular
among merchants, you see.
[18:15] Kyros
Once you've tried Ips silk undergarments,
you'll never be able to wear any others.
[18:20] Marie
You said that the first time we met, too.
[18:23] Marie
Say, Kyros, will you allow me to buy
one thing for you as a present?
[18:29] Marie
Lady Liu Liu paid me for helping with
writing letters and translating.
[18:35] Marie
So if there's anything you'd like—
[18:39] Kyros
Well, that's a top-quality, one-of-a-kind
imported item, you see.
[18:43] Marie
I-I didn't realize these were so costly.
[18:48] Kyros
Marie, does this suit me?
[18:50] Marie
Y-Yes, it does. But I think the fancier
one there would suit you well, too.
[18:56] Kyros
Right then!
[18:57] Kyros
I'd like to try on the ones
that Marie mentioned!
[19:00] Kyros
All of them! I'll buy them all!
[19:01] Marie
What?
[19:09] Kyros
What do you think?
[19:10] Marie
How wonderful!
SIGN Flarian
student uniform
[19:21] Marie
A student uniform? Where will you wear it?

Right! I'll buy this, too!
[19:29] Marie
What?!

It will probably still take a little
while for him to finish changing.

How about a café if you haven't eaten?
[20:12] Marie; internal
Is he trying to get customers?
[20:14] Marie
I'm sorry. I've already eaten.

Wh-What is this all of a sudden?
[20:22] Marie
I don't need tea. Please let go of me.

compliment me out of courtesy.

I should express my gratitude.
[20:32] Marie; internal
Oh, but...
[20:34] Marie; internal
I don't want to!
[20:36] Marie
Help me, Lord Kyros!
[20:43] Kyros
What an unmannerly way to hit on someone.
[20:47] Kyros
When a lady says no, walk away.
[20:49] Kyros
Don't touch anyone without
their permission!
[20:51] man
I-I'm sorry!
[20:57] Marie
I'm sorry for causing trouble for you.
[21:00] Kyros
You have absolutely no reason to apologize!
[21:03] Kyros
But... didn't you realize that
he was trying to ask you out?
[21:05] Marie
What?
[21:06] Kyros
It must have happened
many times before this.
[21:08] Marie
N-No. My school was almost all boys,
[21:13] Marie
but they never spoke to me more
than absolutely necessary.
[21:16] Marie
They used to point at me and laugh.
[21:19] Kyros
That's not possible!
[21:21] Kyros
Even unadorned, you're so charming
that men would never leave you alone!
[21:26] Marie
I'm not. I'm ugly, and my hair
and clothes are always raggedy.
[21:32] Kyros; internal
Raggedy...
[21:34] Kyros; internal
That's it! That's why they
kept her in tatters!
[21:37] Kyros; internal
Baron Shaderan didn't want Marie's
charms known to anyone...
[21:40] Kyros; internal
No! He wished to conceal it, even from her,
[21:43] Kyros; internal
so he trapped her in that disgraceful state!
[21:46] Kyros; internal
But... no matter how hard he tries
to tie Marie down, it won't work!
[21:54] Kyros
I'm never letting go.
[22:01] Marie; internal
Unlike those of other people,
Lord Kyros' hand is comforting.
[23:59] Cillie
It's so lonely without Marie here!
[24:03] Cillie
Stupid Master! It's no fair!
[24:06] Wolfgang
Now, now, Cillie.
[24:08] Wolfgang
Still, they are quite late
in returning, aren't they?
[24:13] Wolfgang
I hope nothing has happened.

More Lovely Than Jewels"
[00:05] woman
Freshly caught today!
[00:08] Marie
Kyros, may I look at that stall, too?
[00:11] Kyros
Yes, of course.
[00:14] Marie; internal
These spices are for Toppo.
[00:17] Marie; internal
These flower seeds are for Johan.
[00:20] Marie; internal
This bracelet is lovely, too!
[00:25] Kyros
These are all gifts for
everyone back at the castle.
[00:28] Marie
Well, it's fun.
[00:30] Marie
And you can't really say anything
about anyone else, Kyros.
[00:34] Marie
All you've bought are gifts for me.
[00:36] Kyros
Looks like we should stop by the carriage
to drop things off, don't you think?
[00:40] Marie
Yes, you're right.
[02:14] Marie
Is this... the artisans quarter?
[02:17] Kyros
This shop is a purveyor to the royal family.
[02:19] Kyros
I've agreed to meet Luiphon here.
[02:29] Giovanni
Thank you for visiting our shop,
[02:32] Giovanni
Count Granado.
[02:34] Kyros
Giovanni! It's been a while, hasn't it?
[02:37] Kyros
Is Luiphon here?
[02:38] Giovanni
Yes, he's on the second floor taking a nap.
[02:41] Kyros
He summons me here, then takes a nap?
[02:44] Kyros
Marie, please wait here for me.
He's got a habit of sleeping naked.
[02:48] Marie
I will.
[02:53] Marie; internal
They must process precious
stones at this shop.
[02:58] Marie; internal
I wonder what these are.
[03:01] Giovanni
These are fragments produced during
the design-cutting process.
[03:04] Giovanni
They come from high quality jewels.
[03:06] Marie
Really? They're beautiful.
[03:09] Giovanni
If you thread them, they can also
be used to make modest accessories.
[03:13] Giovanni
As you are the count's guest, we'll happily
gift you as many as you like.
[03:17] Marie
What?!
[03:18] Marie; internal
All I did was follow Lord Kyros here,
and he'll give them to me for free?
[03:29] Marie; internal
What a beautiful green.
[03:38] Marie
I-If I were to buy these,
how much would they cost?
[03:42] Giovanni
What?
[03:43] Giovanni
Well...
[03:46] Giovanni
Something close to this amount.
[03:49] Marie; internal
They aren't inexpensive, but at this price...
[03:53] Marie
I-I'll take these, please.
And I will, of course, pay for them.
[03:59] Giovanni
Understood.
[04:09] Marie; internal
I've hardly ever even touched any jewels.
[04:12] Marie; internal
I never imagined I'd buy any myself.
[04:15] Luiphon in disguise
Why hello, Miss! Have you bought
yourself something nice there?
[04:19] Marie; internal
What? Could this be that
"being picked up" thing?
[04:23] Marie
Yes, thank you!
[04:25] Marie
But I'm here with someone,
so if you'll excuse me!
[04:28] Luiphon in disguise
What? What is this person
like? Is he handsome?
[04:32] Marie
H-He's wonderful! Very much so!
[04:35] Luiphon in disguise
In what way? His looks? His
personality? Do you share interests?
[04:38] Luiphon in disguise
Have you kissed?
[04:40] Marie
H-His looks and personality
are both wonderful!
[04:42] Marie
We share interests,
and he's a wonderful fiancé!
[04:44] Marie
And as for kissing, we are
likely to do so very soon!
[04:49] Marie
What? L-Lord Kyros?
SIGN Death
by Cuteness...
[04:51] Kyros
S-Sorry.
[04:53] Kyros
And you, Luiphon! Weren't you
napping on the second floor?
[04:58] Luiphon
Hey, my dear Marie! It's been a while.
[05:00] Luiphon
It's me, Prince Luiphon!
[05:01] Marie; internal
O-Once again, this man has...
[05:04] Luiphon
Now, then.
[05:05] Luiphon
I know it's sudden, but let's finish up
the business that I called you here for.
[05:11] Luiphon
This is in celebration of your betrothal.
[05:16] Kyros
A ruby?
[05:17] Kyros
No. A pink diamond?
[05:19] Kyros
But it's very red for one of those.
[05:21] Luiphon
It's an incredibly rare red diamond!
[05:24] Luiphon
Search the world and you won't
find another of this size.
[05:27] Kyros
It's magnificent.
[05:29] Kyros
It must be a national treasure.
[05:30] Luiphon
Indeed!
[05:32] Luiphon
During the war, this rare item was used to
negotiate alliances with other nations.
[05:36] Luiphon
Though ever since then, it has
slept in the royal palace treasure vault.
[05:41] Luiphon
You can have it for eighty million euiro.
I'll give you a friends discount.
[05:44] Kyros
You're telling me to buy it?
[05:46] Luiphon
I convinced all those strait-laced old men
in a meeting of the royal family, you know?
[05:50] Luiphon
I said, "If any of us royals were to wear it,
[05:53] Luiphon
our people would say to stop
wasting their taxes and revolt."
[05:56] Marie; internal
Is that how it works?
[05:58] Luiphon
Though if I said it was a gift for Count
Granado, no one would be able to complain.
[06:05] Marie
What?
[06:06] Luiphon
Sweet Marie, the Granado family's wealth
currently exceeds that of the royal family.
[06:11] Luiphon
The highway that the then
Margrave Granado laid down...
[06:15] Luiphon
The checkpoints and harbor he built
to collect taxes from the merchants...
[06:20] Luiphon
Duchess Liu Liu and Kyros'
skillful mercantile abilities...
[06:24] Luiphon
That's how the House of Granado
obtained their immense wealth.
[06:28] Luiphon
These days, nobility alone
doesn't guarantee a life of ease.
[06:32] Luiphon
If they can't change with the times, even the
most distinguished families will quickly fall.
[06:38] Luiphon
Like Baron Shaderan's family did.
[06:43] Marie; internal
He doesn't mean that as a slight towards me.
[06:45] Marie; internal
Wealth is a weapon. One used to protect
one's people and other precious things.
[06:53] Marie
Yes, and as a member of the House of Granado,
[06:56] Marie
I will be diligent about
never neglecting my studies.
[07:00] Kyros
Marie.
[07:04] Luiphon
I'll make it 70 million!
[07:06] Luiphon
Dear Kyros, you have been
searching, haven't you?
[07:09] Luiphon
For a gem that matches the color of her
hair, the most beautiful jewel in the world!
[07:14] Kyros
I wanted it to be a surprise
for the betrothal ceremony!
[07:19] Kyros
It's just that the distinct charm
of this color is so unique...
[07:24] Kyros
I thought of you right away.
[07:27] Marie; internal
Does he mean the color of my hair?
[07:30] Marie; internal
But it's usually something
that people disdain and avoid.
[07:34] Kyros
Thank you, Luiphon, for searching out
something so perfectly suited to us.
[07:44] Luiphon
You're very welcome.
[07:46] Luiphon
But it'll still take a few
days to turn it into a ring.
[07:55] Marie
Thank you for before.
[07:59] Marie
When I heard that you'd been looking
for a gem the color of my hair,
[08:03] Marie
it made me very happy.
[08:06] Kyros
Y-Yes. I hoped it might delight you.
[08:11] Marie
I thought that your kindness was simply
you being considerate towards me,
[08:15] Marie
so I've always shied away from it.
[08:17] Marie
But now, I understand how you feel.
[08:23] Marie
This is a gift for you.
[08:26] Kyros
Wh-What?
[08:28] Marie
When I was picking out presents for
everyone, I secretly bought this.
[08:33] Marie
Will you accept it?
[08:36] Marie
As long as it isn't an imposition!
[08:52] Kyros
It looks good, right?
[08:56] Marie
You look quite dashing!
[08:58] Marie
And, actually, I also have this.
[09:03] Kyros
Emerald fragments?
[09:05] Marie
Yes.
[09:06] Marie
I thought that it might look nice if
I sewed them on the ends like this.
[09:10] Marie
And the last one is for me.
[09:12] Kyros
You like emeralds?
[09:15] Marie
No.
[09:17] Marie
It's only that I thought they
matched the color of your eyes.
[09:20] Kyros
My eyes?
[09:22] Marie; internal
The moment I thought
they looked like his eyes...
[09:26] Marie; internal
I suddenly wanted those fragments.
[09:29] Marie; internal
I dearly wanted to make them my own.
[09:36] Marie
It's a little hot, isn't it?
[09:39] Marie
I'm going to open the window.
[09:53] Kyros
Watch out!
[09:57] Kyros
What happened? Did something
out there cause you concern?
[10:01] Marie
N-No, it's nothing.
[10:03] Marie
I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking properly.
[10:10] Marie
Today, I was so happy.
[10:12] Marie
Because you held my hands.
[10:15] Marie
I've always had a complex about
my large, unlovely hands.
[10:19] Kyros
Your hands are charming.
[10:21] Kyros
I like holding hands with you very much.
[10:27] Marie
I like it, too.
[10:32] Kyros
If it's only my hands that you like,
[10:36] Kyros
then please, push me away.
[10:40] Marie
Not at all.
[10:43] Marie
I'm so happy.
[10:49] Anastasia
Then trade places with me.
[10:58] Marie
Sister?
[11:00] Anastasia
Why are you there? That spot belongs to me.
[11:08] Anastasia
Trade places with me.
[11:10] Anastasia
Trade places!
[11:19] Marie; internal
Yes...
[11:20] Marie; internal
This is how it should be.
[11:26] Marie; internal
So then, why...
[11:28] Marie; internal
Why do I feel...
[11:32] Marie; internal
so cold?
[11:35] Kyros
M-Marie?
[11:42] Kyros
P-Please stop the carriage!
[11:44] Kyros
No! To a doctor, immediately!
[11:47] Marie; internal
It's cold. So cold... it hurts.
[11:53] (Flashback) young Marie
It's cold.
[11:54] (Flashback) young Marie
It hurts.
[11:56] (Flashback) young Marie
Sister...
[11:59] (Flashback) young Anastasia
I'm right here, Marie.
[12:03] (Flashback) young Anastasia
How's that? Does it feel better?
[12:06] (Flashback) young Marie
Thank you, Sister.
[12:08] (Flashback) young Anastasia
It's all right. It's just
a cold in your ears.
[12:12] (Flashback) young Anastasia
They said that if you sleep
a lot, you'll get better.
[12:15] (Flashback) young Marie
Where are Mama and Papa?
[12:17] (Flashback) young Anastasia
They both said they're busy with work.
[12:20] (Flashback) young Anastasia
That's why your big sister's
going to read you a book!
[12:24] (Flashback) young Anastasia
It's your favorite, Marie!
"The Raggedy Red Cat"!
[12:30] (Flashback) young Anastasia
"Some other time in some other place,"
[12:33] (Flashback) young Anastasia
"a raggedy red cat lived in a town."
[12:36] (Flashback) young Anastasia
"Say, little cat, what's your name?"
[12:40] (Flashback) young Anastasia
"None of your business, you idiot!
Why would I have a name anyway?"
[12:44] (Flashback) young Anastasia
"I'm just a raggedy old cat!"
[12:46] (Flashback) young Anastasia
"Don't you wanna know why I'm raggedy?"
[12:50] (Flashback) Young Marie
"I know why. It's because you're red, right?"
[12:56] (Flashback) Young Anastasia
"You should go on a journey, too."
[12:58] (Flashback) Young Anastasia
"If a cat lies around like
trash, it becomes trash."
[13:01] (Flashback) Young Anastasia
"If trash meows like a cat,
then it becomes a cat."
[13:04] (Flashback) Young Anastasia
"And..."
[13:05] (Flashback) young Anastasia; young Marie
"if that cat goes traveling,
then it becomes a traveling cat!"
[13:13] (Flashback) Sasha
Anastasia!
[13:15] (Flashback) Sasha
I told you not to enter
Marie's room, didn't I?
[13:18] (Flashback) Sasha
You don't listen no matter how
many times you're told, do you?
[13:19] (Flashback) young Marie
Grandmother Sasha...
[13:21] (Flashback) young Anastasia
I'm her big sister, so I
have to make Marie better!
[13:26] (Flashback) Sasha
This nonsense won't make
her better, you fool!
[13:28] (Flashback) Sasha
And your translation is entirely incompetent!
[13:32] (Flashback) Sasha
Learning it properly is
for Marie's sake as well.
[13:34] (Flashback) Sasha
How many times have I told you?
[13:36] (Flashback) young Anastasia
I-I'm sorry!
[13:39] (Flashback) Sasha
Marie.
[13:41] (Flashback) Sasha
Forget what Anastasia has
read you from this book.
[13:44] (Flashback) Sasha
You will learn it just as it is written.
[13:46] (Flashback) young Marie
Is it time for lessons?
[13:49] (Flashback) young Marie
My body still isn't...
[13:53] (Flashback) Sasha
You are the smartest of
everyone in this house.
[13:57] (Flashback) Sasha
That's why educating you is
the most efficient choice.
[14:00] (Flashback) young Marie
But Sister says she likes
words from Ipsandros, too.
[14:04] (Flashback) Sasha
That has nothing to do with anything.
[14:06] (Flashback) Sasha
You will recite this and learn Ipsian
while you are still four years old.
[14:09] (Flashback) Sasha
And you will master Flarian
before you turn six years old.
[14:14] (Flashback) young Marie
Yes, I will.
[14:16] young Marie; internal
I love this story from Ipsandros, but...
[14:23] young Marie; internal
It's cold. It hurts.
[14:26] young Marie; internal
Sister, where are you?
[14:30] young Marie; internal
Sister... help me!
[14:35] Marie
Sister...
[14:41] Marie
Lord Kyros?
[14:44] Kyros
Are you awake, Marie?
[14:47] Marie
Why am I...
[14:49] Kyros
You collapsed with a fever.
[14:50] Kyros
The doctor said it's likely from exhaustion.
[14:53] Marie
A fever?
[14:56] Kyros
Don't push yourself yet. You were
groaning so much in your sleep.
[15:00] Marie
I was dreaming.
[15:03] Marie
But where are we?
[15:05] Kyros
The napping room in the castle.
It's the closest one to the gate.
[15:09] Kyros
Oh, and please don't worry.
[15:11] Kyros
I left changing your clothes and wiping
your sweat to the maids and left the room.
[15:14] Kyros
I swear to you that I also did
not sneak under the covers.
[15:17] Marie
I-I wasn't worried about any of that.
[15:21] Marie
Thanks to everyone's help,
I think my fever has gone down.
[15:26] Marie
How long have I been...
[15:28] Kyros
You've slept for nearly half
a day. It's almost dawn.
[15:33] Marie
Don't tell me... Lord Kyros,
does this mean you haven't slept?
[15:38] Marie
You looked after me all night?
[15:39] Kyros
I didn't do anything much.
[15:41] Kyros
I couldn't have slept for worrying
anyway. Don't let it trouble you.
[15:45] Marie
But...
[15:48] Kyros
Marie, this soup is very nourishing.
[15:51] Kyros
It isn't bitter at all.
[15:53] Marie
I could eat it even if it was bitter.
[15:56] Marie; internal
This brings back memories
from when I was little.
[15:59] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Your big sister will feed
you! Now, open wide!
[16:04] Kyros
Marie?
[16:06] Kyros
Marie, here.
[16:15] Marie
I-I'm so sorry! It isn't what you think!
[16:17] Marie
A long time ago, my sister
looked after me and...
[16:21] Kyros
Your sister looked after you?
[16:23] Marie
Yes, but that was when we were very little.
[16:28] Marie; internal
Now that he mentions it,
when did I start eating alone?
[16:34] Marie; internal
Was it after Grandmother Sasha passed away?
[16:37] Kyros
Is the soup not enough for you?
[16:40] Kyros
There's some biscuit cookies here.
[16:42] Marie
Biscuit cookies?
[16:45] Marie; internal
Ever since Grandmother died,
[16:48] Marie; internal
Mother started treating me as
though I were no more than smoke.
[16:57] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Marie! You must be hungry, right?
[17:00] (Flashback) young Anastasia
I brought you some biscuit cookies.
[17:02] (Flashback) young Marie
I can't. Mama said I
can't eat anything today.
[17:07] (Flashback) young Marie
It's because I got taller again.
[17:13] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Don't worry about any of that!
[17:16] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Here!
[17:30] (Flashback) young Marie
It's delicious.
[17:33] Kyros
Marie, are you all right?
[17:37] Marie; internal
My beautiful, kind older sister...
[17:42] Marie; internal
If she had lived, then instead of
someone like me, Lord Kyros would...
[17:48] Kyros
I'll go fetch the doctor!
[17:49] Marie
Wait!
[17:52] Marie
Please don't go.
[17:53] Marie
I beg of you, stay here with me.
[17:57] Kyros
Marie.
[17:59] Kyros
Don't worry. I'll come right back.
[18:02] Kyros
Has being sick made you feel forlorn?
[18:05] Marie
That isn't it.
[18:08] Marie
I just don't want to be apart
from you for even a moment.
[18:14] Kyros
If you're doing this out of gratitude
for my nursing you, you don't have to.
[18:20] Marie
How could my selfishness
serve as thanks towards you?
[18:24] Kyros
Because...
[18:26] Kyros
you keep saying things that make me happy.
[18:33] Marie; internal
When did I start being able to
look him in the eye like this?
[18:38] Marie; internal
Even when I never lifted my gaze,
he was always watching over me.
[18:52] Marie
I love your eyes.
[18:56] Marie
Before, when you were kind
to me, it made me hesitate,
[19:01] Marie
but now... it only makes me happy.
[19:06] Marie
I'm going to be filled to the brim
with this feeling of happiness.
[19:12] Marie
I... love you.
[19:17] Marie
You are...
[19:33] Kyros
Marie...
[19:35] Kyros
From the first moment I
met you, I've loved you.
[19:40] Marie; internal
Once, I would have rejected
those words, but now...
[19:47] Marie
Yes.
[19:51] Kyros
I'm so happy I think I may cry.
[19:58] Kyros
I am delighted that my love is reciprocated,
[20:01] Kyros
but also, that you're saying these
things to me of your own accord...
[20:05] Kyros
nothing could possibly make me happier.
[20:09] Kyros
I have to tell the doctor that you're awake.
[20:13] Kyros
I'll come right back, so please
stay there in bed and wait for me.
[20:19] Marie
In bed...
SIGN In bed...
SIGN In bed...
SIGN In bed...
[20:21] Marie
I-I'll wait right here!
[20:23] Kyros
I-I didn't mean it like that!
[20:25] Marie
What? Oh, I'm sorry! I jumped to conclusions!
[20:28] Kyros
No, I'm the one who's sorry.
[20:30] Kyros
Well, then!
[20:41] Marie
Lord Kyros?
[20:46] Marie
What happened?
[20:47] Kyros
I-It's nothing.
[20:50] Mio
He was skipping and missed
a step on the stairs.
[20:53] Mio
Honestly. What a fool.
[20:56] Marie
Mio! Welcome home!
[20:59] Mio
I've just returned. There is a small
but urgent matter to attend to.
[21:03] Marie
What is it?
[21:04] Mio
Master.
[21:06] Mio
I've brought a guest to the reception hall.
[21:12] Marie
Is it really all right for me to come, too?
[21:15] Kyros
Yes.
[21:16] Kyros
It won't be pleasant, but it's something
you should hear with your own ears.
[21:21] Kyros
It concerns a member of your
family, Anastasia Shaderan.
[21:35] Mio
I'll take over.
[21:42] Mio
This is the current lord, Kyros Granado.
[21:45] Mio
Raise your head, Jacob.
[21:52] Mio
This man... was the driver of the
carriage that Lady Anastasia rode in.
[21:58] Marie; internal
The one where my sister died in an accident?
[22:03] Kyros
Jacob...
[22:04] Kyros
I hear that you came here years ago from the
Bandelee Islands in order to earn money.
[22:16] Kyros
Was it you?
[22:19] Kyros
Did you kill Anastasia Shaderan?
[23:58] Johan
It's been a long time since I became
the Granado Castle huntsman,
[24:01] Johan
but I never imagined I'd be charged
with a duty like this one.

As I thought, it doesn't seem
likely he'll simply tell us.
[02:00] Tomas
I've brought him.
[02:05] Marie; internal
Johan...
[02:10] Johan
I've heard you're from the Bandelee
Islands. I'm from the same area.
[02:15] Johan
What island were you born on?
[02:18] Jacob
Y-You're Bandeleese?
Why are you working in a castle?
[02:23] Johan
Count Granado's mother is a
refugee from another country.
[02:27] Johan
He has also grown up suffering insults
from the people of this kingdom.
[02:31] Johan
He doesn't discriminate.
I can assure you of that.
[02:35] Johan
The master hasn't called
you here to condemn you.
[02:38] Johan
He wants to give you compensation.
[02:41] Jacob
What?
[02:42] Johan
Compensation for killing Anastasia.
[02:48] Marie; internal
I understand.
[02:49] Marie; internal
Johan is lying to try to
get the truth from him.
[02:53] Johan
As the son of a duke, the master was
bound to a fiancée through duty,
[02:58] Johan
but it was her younger sister, Marie,
who stands here, that he fell in love with.
[03:02] Johan
I'm sure you don't need
me to tell you the rest.
[03:04] Jacob
So the beautiful older sister was in the way.
[03:08] Johan
Indeed. And so the master would
like to discreetly reward you.
[03:12] Johan
In fact, he may even employ
you here at the castle.
[03:18] Johan
And if you were a castle employee, then the
owner of the carriage rental couldn't yell at you.
[03:23] Jacob
Th-That would be too much, wouldn't it?
[03:36] Kyros
Please tell us the truth, Jacob.
[03:40] Jacob
That day, the old guy who runs
the shop was really excited.
[03:44] (Flashback) shop owner
Jacob, bring out the best carriage!
[03:48] (Flashback) Jacob
Huh? What's this about?
[03:50] (Flashback) shop owner
The lord's oldest daughter's getting married.
[03:52] (Flashback) shop owner
A job this big doesn't
come around very often.
[03:56] (Flashback) shop owner
Apologies for keeping you waiting, Baron.
[03:59] (Flashback) shop owner
We have prepared our very
best carriage for you.
[04:03] (Flashback) shop owner
It comes to roughly this amount.
[04:07] (Flashback) Gregor
Ridiculous!
[04:09] (Flashback) Gregor
I will only pay half that much.
[04:11] (Flashback) shop owner
B-But for that amount, we can't manage
to provide a decent carriage or inn.
[04:17] (Flashback) Gregor
Figuring out what to do about
that is your job, isn't it?
[04:21] (Flashback) shop owner
You may say so,
[04:23] (Flashback) shop owner
but the lady getting married is
your darling daughter, isn't it?
[04:31] (Flashback) shop owner
Jacob, you understand, don't you?
[04:34] (Flashback) shop owner
Lay a hand on the lord's daughter
and being fired is the least—
[04:37] (Flashback) Jaocb
Yes, yes. I know.
[04:40] (Flashback) Jacob
But it's strange, isn't it?
[04:43] (Flashback) Jacob
Unlike that raggedy younger daughter,
[04:46] (Flashback) Jacob
the older one is supposed
to be adored, isn't she?
[04:50] (Flashback) shop owner
That's not for us to worry about!
[04:52] (Flashback) shop owner
Now, would you hurry up?!
[05:01] (Flashback) Jacob
Hey, my lady! You're just
as pretty as the rumors say!
[05:06] (Flashback) Jacob
I bet you've got your pick of the men, right?
[05:09] (Flashback) Jacob
Could it be you've actually
played around a bit?
[05:11] (Flashback) Jacob
Just joking. Sorry for being so crude.
[05:16] (Flashback) Jacob
I'm just a humble hired driver after all.
[05:20] (Flashback) Anastasia
Not at all.
[05:21] Jacob; present
Her attitude made me realize,
[05:24] Jacob; present
the only way she could live was
by following her parents' orders.
[05:28] Jacob; present
She was a doll with nothing
more than her looks.
[05:36] Jacob; present
That's how I knew she wouldn't run away.
[05:40] Jacob; present
No matter what happened.
[05:50] (Flashback) Anastasia
Wh-Why have you stopped the carriage?
[05:52] (Flashback) Anastasia
The royal capital is close, isn't it?
[05:54] (Flashback) Jacob
We're camping here for the night.
[05:56] (Flashback) Jacob
And the horses are tired from the rain.
[05:59] (Flashback) Anastasia
The river is dangerous, swollen with the rain!
[06:01] (Flashback) Anastasia
Isn't that all the more reason to hurry?
[06:06] (Flashback) Anastasia
I-If you dare lay a hand on the fiancée of
a count, do you know what will happen to you?
[06:10] (Flashback) Jacob
I don't, and I don't care.
[06:13] (Flashback) Jacob
When the count discovers that his
fiancée was defiled by a foreigner,
[06:17] (Flashback) Jacob
I wonder what'll happen to you.
[06:23] Jacob; present
Ow!

Mio!
[06:25] Kyros
He hasn't finished his story yet!
[06:26] Jacob
What're you doing?
[06:27] Jacob
What? I thought this was what you wanted!
[06:31] Kyros
Mio!
[06:35] Tomas
I'll take your place.
[06:40] Tomas
You! Where did you get the hair and clothes
for the doll that's at the baron's house?
[06:46] Tomas
Tell us!
[06:48] Jacob
I-I took the clothes off her myself.
[06:51] Tomas
And the hair?
[06:52] Jacob
Th-That was...
[06:55] (Flashback) Jacob
Don't move! Just stay still!
[06:57] (Flashback) Anastasia
No!
[07:02] Jacob
She went and cut her own hair off!
[07:04] Jacob
Look! I've still got a scar from it!
[07:07] Tomas
You got what you deserved!
[07:09] Mio
Wounded, you retrieved the clothes and hair,
[07:13] Mio
then sold them to Lady Elvira, who was
in shock from her daughter's death.
[07:17] Jacob
I-I wasn't planning to sell
them to her from the beginning!
[07:20] Jacob
I heard that the baroness was looking
for materials to make a doll!
[07:23] Mio
To cover up your own crime,
you destroyed the carriage,
[07:26] Mio
and lied in your testimony, saying
that you were attacked by bandits.
[07:29] Jacob
That woman fell into the
river! That's the truth!
[07:33] Jacob
She was trying to run away and she slipped!
[07:35] Jacob
It was an accident!
[07:37] Jacob
I didn't kill her!
[07:39] Jacob
Please believe me!
[07:41] Marie
That's enough.
[07:43] Marie
I don't want to hear any more.
[07:45] Kyros
Marie.
[07:50] Marie
My older sister died because
of you, didn't she?
[07:59] Jacob
B-But, you know? I think it was the right
move not to take that woman as your wife!
[08:04] Jacob
She had men's clothing that didn't
fit her hidden away in her bags!
[08:09] Jacob
What a crazy woman! She must've
had men besides her fiancé!
[08:14] Jacob
Even if she had married you,
she'd definitely have cheated on you!
[08:17] Marie
Do not insult my sister!
[08:25] Jacob
Wh-What? Do you want to get
what that woman got, too?
[08:29] Kyros
Stop talking!
[08:38] Marie
Sister, I...
[08:48] Marie
I'm so sorry, Lord Kyros.
[08:51] Kyros
No, I'm the one who should apologize.
[08:55] Kyros
Until just now, I didn't
regret Anastasia's death.
[09:01] Marie
What?
[09:02] Mio
Neither did I.
[09:05] Marie
Mio...
[09:06] Kyros
We thought that Anastasia had tyrannized
you the same way your parents did.
[09:13] Marie
Sh-She didn't! Not even once!
[09:17] Kyros
Yes, I understand that now.
[09:19] Kyros
That's why I feel so guilty.
[09:22] Kyros
I thought that her death
was her divine punishment.
[09:27] Kyros
And that isn't all.
[09:29] Kyros
I thought that my mistakenly proposing
to her was a stroke of good luck.
[09:32] Kyros
Because of that error, you were safe, Marie.
[09:34] Kyros
That's what I believed.
[09:37] Marie; internal
Truthfully, it should have
been me in that carriage.
[09:41] Marie; internal
My sister was there in my place.
[09:44] Kyros
Marie... Will you allow me to
apologize at Anastasia's grave?
[09:50] Marie
She doesn't have a grave.
[09:51] Marie
My father said that a
gravestone would be a waste.
[09:55] Marie
Her funeral was terribly plain, too.
[09:58] Marie
In the end, my sister's name wasn't
even inscribed in the public cemetery.
[10:03] Kyros
I'd at least like to offer
her spirit some comfort.
[10:06] Kyros
Was there a place that Anastasia liked?
[10:08] Kyros
Flowers or food? What about a song?
[10:14] Marie; internal
I didn't know anything.
[10:18] Marie; internal
At some point, a huge gulf opened between us.
[10:23] Marie; internal
Me, who always wore tatters,
but could walk freely outside.
[10:28] Marie; internal
My sister, who was forced to dress
up in a tiny, enclosed garden.
[10:34] Marie; internal
A perfect being who should be beloved by all.
[10:37] Marie; internal
And I believed that was
why the gods took her away.
[10:45] Marie; internal
But even my sister... was just
a person living her life.
[10:50] Marie; internal
It's such an obvious thing,
but I'd forgotten that.
[10:55] Kyros
All of this is my fault.
[10:57] Kyros
I had no right to punch that man.
[11:02] Marie
Neither do I.
[11:05] Marie; internal
Because I...
[11:07] Marie; internal
I'm just one of the many
people who killed Anastasia.
[11:17] Marie
Rest well, Anastasia.
[11:24] Kyros
This waterway runs all the way to the
artisans' quarter in the royal capital.
[11:29] Marie
While she was alive,
[11:30] Marie
my sister once said that she wanted
to design clothes in the capital.
[11:35] Kyros
In such a lively place, perhaps
Anastasia won't feel lonely.
[11:41] Marie
Yes.

Marie! Let's play!

I hope that's true.

I'm just glad you like it.
[14:11] Liu Liu
And there's this, too.
[14:13] Marie
"Eminent Figures Around the World"?
[14:15] Kyros
I requested that one.
[14:18] Kyros
This is Baron Shaderan's mother, and
your grandmother, Marie. Sasha Tillich.
[14:23] Marie
My grandmother when she was young.
[14:25] Kyros
Marie, you told me that Anastasia
looked just like her.
[14:29] Kyros
I thought this might help to capture
her likeness in a portrait.
[14:34] Marie
Thank you, Lord Kyros.
[14:38] Liu Liu
So, your older sister took
after your grandmother.
[14:40] Liu Liu
Do you take after your mother?
[14:42] Marie
In my height and facial features, yes,
[14:46] Marie
but my mother is blonde.
I'm the only one with red hair.
[14:50] Marie
Red hair will bring ruin upon
a house, so I was shunned.
[14:54] Liu Liu
What?! There are still people who believe
such an old-fashioned superstition?
[14:59] Kyros
Yes, agreed.
[15:01] Marie
But why is my grandmother in
a record of eminent people?
[15:04] Liu Liu
My! You're related, but you haven't
heard of Sasha the Heroine?
[15:08] Liu Liu
She's quite famous.
[15:09] Marie
What?
[15:10] Liu Liu
Despite being born during the war,
when women had no real status,
[15:15] Liu Liu
when she was merely eighteen,
she became a military interpreter,
[15:18] Liu Liu
commanding seven languages. A true genius.
[15:20] Liu Liu
Your grandmother revolutionized the
way that women advance in society.
[15:25] Marie
She did?
[15:27] Liu Liu
The likes of your father may
have a bit of a complex.
[15:30] Liu Liu
She'd have been strict
about his education.
[15:33] Marie
I'm not sure about that. My father didn't
interact with my grandmother very much.
[15:38] Marie
There may have been some
discord between them.
[15:41] Kyros
About Baron Shaderan...
[15:44] Kyros
We sent an invitation
to the betrothal ceremony,
[15:47] Kyros
but received no reply.
[15:48] Marie
What? That can't be!
[15:50] Liu Liu
The primary concern is that we have
no way of knowing if he'll attend.
[15:54] Kyros
The one who brought Marie here was
none other than the Baron.
[15:58] Kyros
Why would he oppose the marriage now?
[16:02] Marie
I don't think my parents
ever meant for me to marry.
[16:07] Marie
If I could offer one night's comfort, then we
wouldn't have to return my sister's betrothal gifts.
[16:12] Kyros
Still...
[16:14] Kyros
If he gains connections to
a ducal house through this marriage,
[16:17] Kyros
his own standing will rise significantly.
[16:19] Kyros
No matter how hard a worker you are, Marie...
[16:22] Mio
Perhaps...
[16:24] Mio
it's because Lady Marie was doing important
work that he can't entrust to an outsider.
[16:30] Marie
But I was only doing simple things that
I learned from my grandmother as a child.
[16:36] Liu Liu
Your grandmother worked as the lord of the
land in the previous baron's stead, didn't she?
[16:42] Marie
Y-Yes.
[16:43] Marie
I heard that the formalities involved in
acting as the local lord were difficult.
[16:50] Liu Liu
And your grandmother and your father,
[16:53] Liu Liu
the current Baron Shaderan,
had discord between them.
[16:56] Liu Liu
Before, you told me that you wrote letters
on the lord's behalf, didn't you?
[17:02] Liu Liu
Can your father read and write in Flarian?
[17:05] Marie
Yes, of course! I believe he can.
[17:08] Liu Liu
Have you ever actually
seen him use the language?
[17:13] Marie
Now that you mention it, I haven't.
[17:16] Marie
But it's impossible that he can't speak it.
[17:18] Marie
Flarian is the communal
language of the nobility.
[17:21] Marie
If he couldn't speak it, he wouldn't be
able to fulfill his duties as the lord.
[17:25] Liu Liu
I knew it.
[17:26] Kyros
It can't be. I don't believe it.
[17:29] Marie
What is it?
[17:31] Kyros
Mio, send the House of
Shaderan a mandatory summons.
[17:35] Marie
What?
[17:36] Kyros
If they won't respond to that either,
[17:38] Kyros
we'll have to take them
to trial in the kingdom's court.

[21:05] Marie
He was a button maker who also made rings?
[21:08] Kyros
Buttons were originally a
type of valuable jewelry.
[21:12] Kyros
Being particular about them shows
care in one's appearance.
[21:14] Kyros
Sometimes clothes are even made
to match a set of buttons.
[21:18] Marie
Oh, I see.
[21:20] Luiphon
Indeed. The only one capable of executing
the design of that ring may be that Norman.
[21:26] Kyros
What?
[21:28] Kyros
You don't mean... Smith
Norman himself made this?!
[21:33] Luiphon
That's right! It's my real gift to you.
[21:37] Luiphon
I went to him in his retirement
and begged, I'll have you know!
[21:40] Luiphon
Me, of all people.
[21:41] Kyros
No wonder!
[21:43] Marie
Thank you, Prince Luiphon.
[21:46] Kyros
But Norman is famous for being stubborn.
I'm amazed that you convinced him.
[21:50] Luiphon
He seemed to have taken on a new apprentice,
so perhaps he's had a change of heart.
[21:55] Kyros
Apprentice?
[21:56] Luiphon
Yes. Apparently, he's taken in
a foundling or street urchin.
[22:00] Luiphon
It happened three months ago in the
royal capital's artisans' quarter.
[22:03] Marie
What?
[22:04] Kyros
A foundling?
[22:06] Kyros
If they were from outside the capital,
was it a farmer's child?
[22:09] Kyros
Regional disparities are a problem for the
royal government, aren't they, Prince Luiphon?
[22:13] Marie; internal
Three months ago...
[22:17] Marie; internal
The royal capital's artisans' quarter...

[00:03] Luiphon
Truly, who'd have imagined
[00:04] Luiphon
that famously obstinate Norman would
take an orphan as an apprentice?
[00:08] Kyros
That is a surprise.
[00:10] Kyros
He used to be so adamant that he
wouldn't pass on his skills to anyone.
[00:15] Marie
Wh-What is his apprentice's name?
[00:19] Luiphon
His name is Arthur. He's a twelve
or thirteen-year-old boy.
[00:27] Marie
Yes, of course.
[00:30] Kyros
Marie... Don't tell me that you think
Anastasia might still be alive?
[00:35] Luiphon
You think that Norman's apprentice
might be your sister?
[00:38] Luiphon
That seems highly unlikely.
[00:40] Marie
Yes, of course.
[00:42] Marie
I understand.
[02:23] Marie; narration
A few weeks have passed since
my father was issued a summons.
SIGN Episode 10 "Please Call Off the Betrothal"
[02:27] Marie; narration
There hasn't been any response yet.
[02:30] Marie; narration
All I can do is devote everything I have
to learning aristocratic etiquette...
[02:36] Marie; narration
and write letters of thanks to pass to the
guests who attend the betrothal ceremony.
[02:42] Marie; narration
All so that I can grow the slightest
bit more worthy of Lord Kyros.
[03:20] Kyros
Yesterday, I dispatched a carriage
to bring the baron here directly.
[03:25] Marie
I see.
[03:28] Kyros
If he still doesn't comply, I may have
to resort to slightly rougher measures.
[03:33] Marie
I'm so sorry.
[03:35] Marie
If my father remains in hiding,
as his blood relative,
[03:38] Marie
I'm prepared to face any punishment.
[03:40] Kyros
Please don't say that! Do you
think I would allow such a thing?
[03:45] Marie
But someone has to accept responsibility
for his actions, don't they?
[03:50] Kyros
Marie!
[03:52] Marie
I'm all right.
[03:59] Marie
I'll go to my dance practice now.
[04:12] Liu Liu
I have nothing left to teach her.
[04:16] Liu Liu
She works so much harder
than most people.
[04:18] Kyros
Yes.
[04:23] Liu Liu
Don't you ever let her go.
[04:25] Kyros
I know.
[04:31] Kyros
Noble lady,
[04:33] Kyros
will you favor me with a dance?
[04:43] Marie
With pleasure... sir.
[04:51] Kyros
You really have gotten good at this!
[04:54] Marie
I'm happy to hear you say so.
[04:57] Marie
I've practiced a lot, so—
[05:04] Kyros
What's wrong? Are you all right?
[05:06] Marie
I-I'm sorry. My feet suddenly got tangled.
[05:11] Kyros
You're pushing yourself far too hard.
[05:13] Kyros
Rest a little.
[05:15] Marie
No, I haven't pushed myself at all!
[05:18] Marie
By the betrothal ceremony,
I'll do better than—
[05:21] Kyros
Marie!
[05:29] Kyros
Are you all right? Shouldn't
you go to your rooms and rest?
[05:32] Marie
No, I'm fine.
[05:34] Kyros
No, you're not!
[05:36] Kyros
Ever since we heard about Norman's
apprentice, you've been acting strangely!
[05:40] Kyros
You're still thinking about
Anastasia, aren't you?
[05:42] Marie
Th-That's not...
[05:44] Kyros
There's something bothering you, isn't there?
[05:48] Marie
I saw someone... near the artisans' quarter.
[05:52] Marie
Someone who looked like my sister.
[05:54] Marie
Someone blonde.
[05:57] Kyros
All right. Let's meet Norman's apprentice.
[06:00] Marie
What?
[06:00] Kyros
Once you've seen him with your own
eyes, your feelings should lighten.
[06:08] Marie
Yes.
[06:19] Tomas
I've brought Smith Norman.
[06:31] Kyros
Norman, it's been a while, hasn't it?
[06:34] Norman
It has been indeed, Count Granado.
[06:43] Kyros
Norman... what happened to your eyes?
[06:46] Norman
Three years ago while I was working,
[06:48] Norman
shards of hot iron sprang
loose and pierced my goggles.
[06:53] Norman
I can still see light and dark and colors,
so I am able to live surprisingly normally.
[06:58] Kyros
What about people's faces?
[07:01] Norman
If it's someone I know
well, then I can get by.
[07:03] Norman
But my apprentice waits
on all the new customers.
[07:06] Kyros
Speaking of which, where is your apprentice?
[07:09] Kyros
Why isn't he here?
[07:12] Norman
My apologies.
[07:14] Norman
I told him to come with me,
but he said he wasn't feeling well.
[07:19] Mio
We'll send another messenger.
[07:23] Kyros
Norman, Luiphon said that your
apprentice is a young man,
[07:27] Kyros
but how do you know he's a man?
[07:29] Norman
Well, he said so himself. Why do you ask?
[07:33] Norman
You can't mean that you think
I'm sheltering a woman?
[07:37] Norman
Don't even joke about such a thing!
I would never let a woman into my workshop!
[07:41] Norman
And Arthur is still just a fledgling,
but he has both talent and grit!
[07:44] Kyros
I-I see. I heard that you met
Arthur in the royal capital.
[07:49] Norman
Yes, he was fleeing from being
sold off to some nobles,
[07:53] Norman
so he was wandering the
town with no money at all.
[07:56] Norman
When I said that I was a
button artisan, he said,
[07:58] Norman
"Really, old man? Then
make me your apprentice!"
[08:02] Marie
What?
[08:03] Kyros
He said that himself?
[08:05] Norman
Indeed.
[08:06] Norman
He said, "I'm sick of a life of bein' taken
advantage of by rotten, rich villains!"
[08:11] Marie
Oh my.
[08:13] Kyros; internal
Just as I thought. He must be someone else.
[08:15] Kyros; internal
A noble's daughter would
never speak that way.
[08:18] Norman
His skills in the craft still need work,
but his grasp of clothing is exceptional.
[08:23] Norman
Clothes for women to dress as men, was it?
[08:26] Norman
He said he'd been making those
sorts of things for a while now.
[08:30] Marie; internal
Clothes for women to dress as
men? Th-That's just like...
[08:34] Kyros
What an unusual hobby.
Were his parents artisans, too?
[08:38] Norman
He doesn't seem to want
to talk about his parents.
[08:42] Norman
No matter what I ask, he always answers,
[08:45] Norman
"Quit asking, you moron!
I'm just a raggedy cat!"
[08:48] Norman
Imagine.
[08:52] Kyros
What an entertaining apprentice!
[08:55] Norman
Indeed.
[08:56] Norman
Next time, I'll bring some of the
men's clothes for women that he made.
[08:59] Kyros
I look forward to it.
[09:01] Kyros
They'd likely suit Marie unexpectedly well.
[09:06] Kyros
Marie?
[09:09] Kyros
Marie!
[09:10] Kyros
Marie!
[09:12] Kyros
Where are you?

Please come out!

Begin a search of the immediate area at once!

Yes, miss!

My lady, why...
[09:41] Tomas
Mister Johan! Have you seen our lady?
[09:47] Kyros
Confound it!
[09:50] Kyros
Why can't I find her?
[10:04] Kyros
Marie? Are you here?
[10:07] Kyros
You are, aren't you? May I come in?
[10:11] Marie
Stay away.
[10:13] Kyros
Why this room?
[10:16] Marie
This room?
[10:19] Marie; internal
Oh, now that he mentions it...
[10:27] Marie; internal
For some reason... I felt like
this place would protect me.
[10:32] Kyros
Please... Please let me join you.
[10:36] Kyros
It gets cold here. Let's drink some
hot tea and calm ourselves.
[10:40] Marie
Lord Kyros...
[11:03] Kyros
Marie...
[11:05] Marie
Hearing Mister Norman made me certain of it.
[11:08] Marie
My sister loved to make clothes.
[11:11] Marie
And those lines from
The Tale of the Raggedy Red Cat.
[11:15] Marie
She is alive, just as I thought.
[11:17] Marie
And now there's no reason for
me to be allowed to stay here.
[11:21] Kyros
What do you mean?
[11:22] Kyros
Even if Anastasia is alive, our feelings
for each other are shared, aren't they?
[11:28] Marie
My sister is a kind,
beautiful, wonderful woman.
[11:32] Marie
No matter what I do, I'll
never be a match for her.
[11:36] Marie
I know that your feelings
for me aren't a lie.
[11:39] Marie
But... it's only because
you don't know my sister.
[11:44] Marie
If you knew her properly, I'm certain
you'd fall in love with her, too.
[11:48] Marie
More than you could ever love someone like me.
[11:51] Kyros
What are you saying?!
[11:52] Kyros
It's you I love!
I've loved you all this time!
[11:56] Kyros
Are you saying... you can simply
cast aside your feelings for me?
[12:02] Marie; internal
Cast them aside?
[12:04] Marie; internal
I could never cast them aside!
[12:06] Kyros
You don't have to worry.
[12:10] Kyros
I love you just as you are.
[12:13] Marie; internal
The me that you love is the beautiful me...
[12:17] Marie; internal
not the ugly human that I am.
[12:23] Marie
I... loathe myself.
[12:27] Kyros
Marie.
[12:29] Marie; internal
I thought that I wished my sister
were still alive, and yet...
[12:33] Marie; internal
If my sister were dead, then I'd
be able to stay by your side.
[12:39] Marie; internal
I allowed myself to dream.
[12:42] Marie; internal
My true feelings are so repulsive...
[12:45] Marie; internal
I'm certain they would disappoint you.
[12:49] Marie; internal
Now, while you still love me...
[12:54] Marie
Please call off the betrothal.
[13:00] Marie
I will return to the Shaderan household.
[13:06] Kyros
All right. I will grant your wish.
[13:27] Marie
Thank you for taking care of me.
[13:29] Marie
I'll dedicate my life to reimbursing you for
my living costs and for ending our betrothal.
[13:35] Kyros
You don't have to worry about any of that.
[13:39] Mio
I will drive her home.
[14:09] Kyros
Marie... is this really what you want?
[14:18] Marie
Yes.
[14:24] Kyros
I'm too weak.
[14:27] Kyros
I know that you don't mean
what you say, and yet...
[14:31] Kyros
I...
[14:33] Kyros
Marie, isn't there anything
left that I can do?
[14:39] Marie
Nothing.
[14:41] Marie
You've already done more than enough for me.
[14:46] Kyros
I see.
[14:55] Kyros
If I can find the courage...
[14:58] Kyros
If I can grow a little
bit stronger as a man...
[15:04] Kyros
then one day, I promise I will come to you.
[15:07] Kyros
I beg of you, please wait
for me until that day.
[15:21] Marie; internal
I left without saying goodbye to everyone.
[15:24] Marie; internal
Even though they took such good care of me.
[15:27] Marie; internal
If he'd taken someone as
ungrateful as me as his wife,
[15:30] Marie; internal
it would bring misfortune to everyone.
[15:32] Marie; internal
This is the right thing to do after all.
[15:35] Mio
I'm disappointed in the master.
[15:38] Mio
I never imagined he was so weak and cowardly.
[15:40] Marie
Cowardly?
[15:42] Mio
Instead of choosing a happy future for you,
he chose to stop your tears in the present.
[15:48] Mio
Because he's afraid of hurting you.
[15:51] Marie; internal
Afraid of hurting me?
[15:54] Marie; internal
I didn't want to get hurt,
so I hurt him instead,
[15:59] Marie; internal
and he worked to protect me.
[16:02] Marie; internal
I'm certain it's because
I seemed about to break.
[16:05] Marie; internal
Is that weakness?
[16:29] Marie; internal
Eyes more beautiful than any star...
[16:33] (Flashback) Kyros
From the first moment I
met you, I've loved you.
[16:38] (Flashback) Kyros
I love you, Marie.
[16:41] (Flashback) Kyros
I love you from the bottom of my heart.
[16:43] (Flashback) Kyros
And no matter what happens,
I will always be by your side.
[16:47] (Flashback) Kyros
You are beautiful!
[16:50] Marie; internal
Lord Kyros always told
me exactly how he felt.
[16:55] Marie; internal
And yet I...
[16:58] Marie
All I've done is run away!
[17:02] Marie; internal
The first treasure I've ever found.
[17:09] Marie; internal
I was so afraid of losing it...
[17:11] Marie; internal
that I lied and said I didn't want it.
[17:15] Marie; internal
I didn't want to get hurt,
[17:17] Marie; internal
so I tried to convince myself
that I wasn't worthy.
[17:21] Marie; internal
But... the truth is, I've always wanted it.
[17:26] Marie; internal
I've wanted it so badly
that I couldn't stand it.
[17:34] Marie
Mio, please! The carriage!
[17:37] Mio
Understood.
[17:41] Marie
Wh-What?
[17:45] Mio
We'll be back very soon.
[17:47] Mio
Up until just now, we've simply been
circling near the castle, you see?
[17:51] Marie
What?
[17:52] Mio
The carriage will rock a bit. Please
be careful not to bite your tongue.
[18:06] Marie; internal
I let it slip away once, but this
time everything will be fine!
[18:23] Marie; internal
I won't run anymore!
[18:24] Marie; internal
I won't lie to myself anymore!
[18:28] Marie
Lord Kyros!
[18:30] Marie
The coward... the one who
needs more courage is me!
[18:34] Marie
So, I'm going to tell you properly!
[18:38] Marie
I want you!
[18:40] Marie
And everyone in this castle, too!
[18:42] Marie
Everything related to you, all of it!
[18:44] Marie
I don't want to let anyone else have it!
[18:47] Marie
Please give all of yourself to me!
[19:00] Marie
Lord Kyros?
[19:02] Marie
Why are you behind me?
[19:07] Kyros
I was chasing after you.
[19:30] Cillie
Stupid! Marie, you're so stupid!
[19:32] Cillie
You're not going to leave anymore, right?
[19:35] Cillie
You're going to say you're home now, right?
[19:37] Marie
Yes. I'm home, Cillie.
[19:40] Tomas

[03:57] (Flashback) Sasha
Marie has fallen asleep.
[03:59] (Flashback) Sasha
Leave the rest to me.
[04:02] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Yes.
[04:06] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Languages from so many countries...
[04:09] (Flashback) Sasha
That's because people from many
countries have sent them.
[04:12] (Flashback) young Anastasia
This is... Father's name, isn't it?
[04:16] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Why are you signing it, Grandmother?
[04:18] (Flashback) Sasha
Because everyone is born suited for
some things and not for others.
[04:24] (Flashback) Anastasia
That's true. Like me.
I'm not smart like Marie.
[04:30] (Flashback) Sasha
Anastasia.
[04:33] (Flashback) Sasha
You possess an inventiveness
that others do not.
[04:37] (Flashback) Sasha
It's an ability that will not
shine through academics alone.
[04:41] (Flashback) young Anastasia
Grandmother!
[04:47] (Flashback) Sasha
Despite appearances, Gregor performs
marvelously on musical instruments.
[04:52] (Flashback) Sasha
That path would have
actually been the boy's—
[05:00] (Flashback) young Anastasia
M-Mama! Papa!
[05:02] (Flashback) Sasha
Don't call them here!
[05:03] (Flashback) young Anastasia
B-But...
[05:07] (Flashback) Sasha
It's already far too late.
[05:18] (Flashback) Sasha
In our era, we could not
choose how to live our lives.
[05:24] (Flashback) Sasha
But the era you two will live
through will be different.
[05:29] (Flashback) Sasha
I hope that each of you will make use of
your strengths and do work that you love.
[05:38] (Flashback) Sasha
That is my only wish.
[05:52] (Flashback) Gregor
My mother has passed away.
[05:55] (Flashback) Gregor
What will happen to us?
[05:59] (Flashback) Gregor
Marie!
[06:01] (Flashback) Gregor
How much did you learn from my mother?
[06:03] (Flashback) Gregor
Do you understand Flarian?
[06:05] (Flashback) young Marie
I-I've only learned a little.
[06:13] (Flashback) Elvira
She must have caught Marie's illness.
[06:18] (Flashback) Elvira
Marie killed Lady Sasha!
[06:22] young Anastasia; narration
It couldn't possibly have been Marie's fault.
[06:26] young Anastasia; narration
But ever since that day, Mama has
stopped seeing Marie as her daughter.
[06:33] (Flashback) Gregor
Marie.
[06:36] (Flashback) Gregor
Wouldn't you like to try attending school?
[06:38] (Flashback) Marie
What?
[06:39] (Flashback) Gregor
It's a town school,
[06:41] (Flashback) Gregor
but I hear they teach the current
usage of foreign languages there.
[06:44] (Flashback) Gregor
You like to study, don't you?
[06:46] (Flashback) Marie
Yes, I do... but won't it
cost money for me to attend?
[06:51] (Flashback) Gregor
It's all right. That's not something
you need to worry about.
[06:55] (Flashback) Marie
But the servants say they haven't received
their wages for over two months.
[07:00] (Flashback) Gregor
That's because there's no
need to pay the incompetent.
[07:03] (Flashback) Marie
But...
[07:04] (Flashback) Gregor
I am the lord here. Will you defy me?
[07:08] (Flashback) Gregor
You see? Women who get a taste of
education are so quick to rebel.
[07:11] (Flashback) Gregor
Entirely unendearing.
[07:13] (Flashback) Gregor
That's right.
[07:16] (Flashback) Gregor
You are a charmless, unlovely woman.
[07:20] (Flashback) Marie
I am... not lovely.
[07:23] (Flashback) Gregor
You are ugly and impudent.
[07:25] (Flashback) Gregor
You'd never survive anywhere else.
[07:28] (Flashback) Gregor
The least you could do is study and
be useful to the lord of this region.
[07:32] (Flashback) Anastasia
Papa!
[07:33] (Flashback) Anastasia
Why would you say such awful things?
[07:36] (Flashback) Elvira
Everything your father said is
correct, my lovely Anastasia.
[07:43] (Flashback) Gregor
Marie, you understand, don't you?
[07:46] (Flashback) Gregor
You know that, though everyone loves
Anastasia, you are not like her.
[07:52] (Flashback) Marie
Yes.
[07:53] (Flashback) Anastasia
Marie...
[07:55] (Flashback) Gregor
Dismissing the servants will
take care of your tuition.
[07:58] (Flashback) Gregor
You will do the housework.
And we'll sell your dresses, too.
[08:02] (Flashback) Marie
Yes.
[08:03] (Flashback) Gregor
Very good.
[08:05] (Flashback) Gregor
If you obey me like this, it does
grant you a tiny bit of charm.
[08:11] (Flashback) Marie
Yes, Father.
[08:15] Anastasia; narration
That day, Marie's life completely changed.
[08:19] Anastasia; narration
She was made to work from
dawn until deepest night.
[08:23] Anastasia; narration
In the blink of an eye, Marie
became tattered and ragged.
[08:33] (Flashback) Anastasia
Mama, why do you treat Marie like that?
[08:38] (Flashback) Elvira
What choice do I have?
[08:40] (Flashback) Elvira
That unlucky, sinister red hair...
[08:43] (Flashback) Elvira
Lady Sasha was cursed by that child and died.
[08:47] (Flashback) Anastasia
What are you saying? What does
Grandmother have to do with this?
[08:50] (Flashback) Elvira
Ah, but then there's you, Anastasia.
[09:03] (Flashback) Elvira
This beautiful blonde hair
and those blue eyes...
[09:07] (Flashback) Elvira
It's as if Lady Sasha has returned to us.
[09:10] (Flashback) Elvira
It really is as if she's alive.
[09:14] (Flashback) Anastasia
Mama... I'm alive.
[09:22] Anastasia; narration
Marie was in rags, but she was
allowed into the outside world,
[09:27] Anastasia; narration
while I was like a doll,
trapped inside the house.
[09:32] (Flashback) Gregor
Confound it!
[09:33] (Flashback) Gregor
Why aren't more significant
figures proposing marriage?
[09:39] (Flashback) Anastasia
Won't Marie be marrying anyone?
[09:43] (Flashback) Gregor
What man would ever want
to take her as his wife?
[09:46] (Flashback) Gregor
But you're different.
[09:49] (Flashback) Gregor
As a noble's daughter,
[09:50] (Flashback) Gregor
you will fulfill the vital duty of
marriage like a good girl, won't you?
[10:04] (Flashback) Anastasia
Yes. It's wonderful!
[10:11] Anastasia; internal
The truth is, I'd like to try
opening up a shop in the capital.
[10:15] Anastasia; internal
But...
[10:17] Anastasia; internal
all that I'm permitted to do is
be an obedient, beautiful doll.
[10:38] (Flashback) Jacob
Crap! Where did she run off to?
[10:45] (Flashback) Jacob
That stuck-up wench... she threw herself in!
[10:51] Anastasia; internal
Looks like I tricked him!
[10:53] Anastasia; internal
Moron! Take that!
[11:23] Anastasia; internal
Anastasia threw herself
into the river and died.
[11:49] (Flashback) Norman
What are you doing?
[11:51] Anastasia; internal
His eyes...
[11:56] (Flashback) Norman
What's your name?
[11:58] (Flashback) Anastasia
A-Ana...
[12:02] (Flashback) Anastasia
Arthur! Got a problem with that?
[12:07] (Flashback) Norman
This kid seems to have some spirit.
[12:09] (Flashback) Norman
What happened? What are you
doing in a place like this?
[12:12] (Flashback) Anastasia
U-Um, well, I was...
[12:16] Anastasia; narration
I made up a story then and there.
[12:18] Anastasia; narration
I lied and said I'd been sold off.
[12:22] Anastasia; narration
Old Man Norman said he'd let me
stay at his house for a while.
[12:40] (Flashback) Anastasia
C-Could it be... Do you make clothes here?
[12:44] (Flashback) Norman
Yes. I am a button artisan, after all.
[12:47] (Flashback) Norman
Though, I'm as good as retired now.
[12:50] (Flashback) Anastasia
Are you serious, old man?
Make me your apprentice!
[12:54] (Flashback) Norman
What?
[12:55] (Flashback) Anastasia
I like making clothes! See? I made these!
[13:02] (Flashback) Norman
This is...
[13:04] (Flashback) Norman
Yes, indeed. They're small
for a man's clothes, but...
[13:09] (Flashback) Anastasia
That's because they're for women to
dress as men! It's a hobby of mine.
[13:13] (Flashback) Norman
T-To dress as men?
[13:14] (Flashback) Anastasia
Of course, I can make regular clothes, too.
[13:17] (Flashback) Anastasia
Opening up a shop in the capital is my dream!
[13:20] (Flashback) Norman
I don't take apprentices.
[13:24] (Flashback) Anastasia
I don't have a home or anywhere else to go.
[13:28] (Flashback) Anastasia
I'll take care of odd jobs or whatever else!
[13:30] (Flashback) Anastasia
I want to be reborn here and
make my dream come true!
[13:34] (Flashback) Anastasia
Please!
[13:43] (Flashback) Norman
You can stay here at my house.
[13:45] (Flashback) Norman
As for my work...
you'll have to watch and learn.
[13:51] Anastasia; narration
Every day was like a dream.
[13:59] (Flashback) Luiphon
Hey there, Norman. How have you been?
[14:02] (Flashback) Luiphon
Sorry to cut straight to the point, but
I'd like you to set this jewel in a ring.
[14:10] (Flashback) Norman
This is an impressively high-quality gem.
[14:13] (Flashback) Luiphon
The spelling for the engraving on the ring
is written on the request form, but...
[14:18] (Flashback) Norman
That won't be a problem. I'll have
my apprentice read it to me later.
[14:23] (Flashback) Luiphon
Oh, you've taken an apprentice?
I guess the workshop is safe, then.
[14:33] (Flashback) Norman
Arthur, this is a national treasure that
Count Granado obtained through Prince Luiphon.
[14:39] (Flashback) Norman
Since you're studying the craft,
you should take a look, too.
[14:44] (Flashback) Anastasia
It's beautiful.
[14:47] (Flashback) Norman
I hear he's been searching for a striking
red stone to match the color of his bride's hair.
[14:53] (Flashback) Anastasia
Red hair?
[14:55] (Flashback) Norman
This ring is intended for the younger sister
of his betrothed, who died in an accident.

Why is my big sister the only

[15:25] (Flashback) young Marie
I will never forgive my
sister for running away!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
[15:40] (Flashback) Norman
There's really no possible way?
[15:43] (Flashback) Anastasia
No, I don't feel well.
[15:46] (Flashback) Norman
The letter from the count said that
I was to bring you along, didn't it?
[15:52] (Flashback) Norman
All right. I'll apologize to the count.
[16:01] Anastasia; internal
Because I don't know what I
should do... my body won't move.
[16:06] Anastasia; internal
I know that Marie must be suffering.

From now on, I'll protect you.

Marie, he's deceiving you.
[17:42] Kyros
Why would you think that?
[17:44] Anastasia
Because saying things is easy!
[17:46] Anastasia
Especially for unscrupulous adults!
[17:48] Kyros
It's unfathomable that
you would doubt my love!
[17:51] Kyros
If money and power could
make things go as I wanted,
[17:54] Kyros
I'd have abducted her the day I met her!
[17:55] Kyros
I'd destroy the Shaderan family for hurting
Marie and go off an a journey with her!
[18:00] Kyros
From morning 'til night,
I'd never let her go!
[18:02] Kyros
If this isn't love, then why would I have
bought a body pillow? You dunderhead!
SIGN Marie is Life
SIGN Repulsed...
[18:06] Anastasia
I'm worried about this man
in a different way now.
[18:10] Mio
Master, I believe that will suffice.
Everyone is thoroughly horrified.
[18:16] Kyros
All of this began because I wrote the
wrong name on my offer of marriage.
[18:20] Kyros
I'm sorry.
[18:22] Anastasia
What?
[18:23] Kyros
But the love I feel for Marie is real.
[18:28] Kyros
No matter what hardships
may rain down upon us,
[18:30] Kyros
I will spend my life protecting her.
[18:34] Kyros
I want to become Marie's family.
[18:38] Anastasia; internal
Even I understand the
desire to treasure family.
[18:47] Anastasia
Can you take responsibility for those words?
[18:50] Anastasia
If you can't, I'll steal Marie back from you.
[18:55] Kyros
Yes, I swear it.
[18:58] Kyros
I swear that the two of
us will find happiness.
[19:11] Anastasia
Marie, you've been loved, as you should be.
[19:14] Anastasia
You've been smiling here,
in the place where you belong.
[19:17] Marie
Yes!
[19:19] Anastasia
That little girl I needed to
save is gone now, isn't she?
[19:26] Marie
Sister.
[19:38] Marie
Everyone, thank you for
gathering at my request.
[19:43] Anastasia
Um...
[19:44] Marie
The truth is, this is something I
wanted my sister to hear as well.
[19:49] Anastasia
Something you want me to hear?
[19:52] Marie
It's about Father's crimes.
[19:56] Marie
Sister, have you ever seen them?
[19:58] Marie
The prose or letters that Grandmother
or I wrote in Father's place...
[20:04] Anastasia
Now that you mention it, I have seen them.
[20:07] Marie
After hearing what you said, I was certain.
[20:11] Marie
It isn't just the kingdom's tongue...
Father can't use Flarian either.
[20:16] Anastasia
What? Is that a crime?
[20:18] Marie
Yes.
[20:20] Marie
Since official documents are written and
exchanged in Flarian, the language of the nobility,
[20:24] Marie
managing territory and overseeing its
people would be difficult without it.
[20:28] Marie
But unlike when Grandmother was here,
Father didn't notify the kingdom.
[20:33] Marie
Instead, he simply had me
write documents on his behalf.
[20:37] Marie
Forgery of official documents and
abandonment of his duties as lord...
[20:40] Marie
Those are my father's crimes, aren't they?
[20:44] Liu Liu
Exactly.
[20:46] Liu Liu
As a noble, who oversees the welfare
of his people, he has utterly failed.
[20:50] Mio
His abuse of Lady Marie and the others
shows his failure as a human being.
[20:55] Kyros
The baron wanted to hide
his own incompetence,
[20:58] Kyros
so he set up Marie as his
stand-in in an illegal manner.
[21:01] Kyros
Then he used rags and
tatters to chain Marie down
[21:04] Kyros
and exploit her for
the sake of his noble house.
[21:07] Marie
I'm sorry.
[21:08] Marie
I didn't know that doing a lord's work in their
stead without the crown's permission was a crime.
[21:13] Kyros
Even if you had known, you couldn't
have refused in that situation.
[21:17] Kyros
I've already checked and found that
you bear no responsibility in this.
[21:21] Liu Liu
We'll be sure to protect you!
[21:25] Kyros
Marie, you have the right to decide what
will happen to the House of Shaderan.
[21:33] Kyros
Marie, please tell us what
it is you wish to do.
[21:37] Marie; internal
Until now, I've always run away.
[21:41] Marie; internal
But now I've learned that my decisions can
bring happiness and unhappiness to others.
[21:52] Marie
I can't pretend not to see
these things any longer.
[21:56] Marie
I will face the truth and look
upon it with my own eyes.
[21:58] Marie
Please allow me to make my
decision after I've done that.
[22:02] Kyros
Understood.
[22:04] Anastasia
Marie.
[22:06] Marie
After all, I'm of the mind to hit
my parents with one good wallop!
[22:12] Anastasia

I've been wanting to see you, Baron Shaderan.

You didn't reply about the betrothal
ceremony no matter how long we waited,
[04:09] Marie

We hoped that you would give
our love your approval.

If you do not believe

I am the lord of this land and your father!
[06:17] Kyros
Lord of the land? A father?
[06:19] Kyros
Don't make me laugh.
[06:22] Gregor
What did you say? You—
[06:25] Luiphon
Baron Shaderan, this is a written notice of
the stripping of your authority as a lord.
[06:31] Kyros
You can't speak Flarian, which is essential
for managing your lands, can you?
[06:35] Gregor
Wh-What are you talking about?
[06:36] Gregor
I just hate foreign languages, that's all!
[06:39] Kyros
In that case, please say
something in Flarian.
[06:41] Kyros
A simple conversation will do.
[06:43] Gregor
Th-That's...
[06:45] Luiphon
After Sasha Shaderan passed away,
you failed to officially inform the crown
[06:49] Luiphon
that you had your daughter Marie act in
your stead. We've already investigated it.
[06:54] Luiphon
Gregor Shaderan, we cannot entrust the
lives of our precious citizens to you.
[06:59] Kyros
For abandoning your
official duties as a lord,
[07:02] Kyros
and the crime of covering it up,
[07:05] Kyros
you will pay dearly.
[07:15] Gregor
A-Am I... going to lose everything?
[07:20] Marie
No.
[07:21] Marie
There is one way to preserve the barony.
[07:26] Marie
Although the Granado family
will essentially take over,
[07:30] Marie
you would retain your title and residence.
[07:33] Marie
Talented personnel will be dispatched here.
[07:36] Marie
However, there is one condition.
[07:38] Gregor
A condition?
[07:43] Marie
Please apologize to me.
[07:47] Kyros
For violating her dignity, brainwashing
her, and tying her down to this house...
[07:53] Kyros
If you apologize for these inhumane acts and
ask for help, then I promise you assistance.
[07:59] Kyros
All of us here discussed it,
and that is what we decided.
[08:03] Marie
Father, please give me your answer.
[08:06] Marie
Why didn't you follow the proper procedures?
Why force everything on me instead?
[08:10] Gregor
S-Stop whining!
[08:12] Gregor
It's only natural for a good-for-nothing
daughter to obey her parents!
[08:17] Kyros
Not only do you show no gratitude towards
Marie, even now, you take that attitude?
[08:22] Kyros
As a fellow noble, let me say one thing.
[08:25] Kyros
To apologize.
To seek help. To feel gratitude.
[08:29] Kyros
Each of those things are essential in a lord.
[08:33] Kyros
If there's something you can't do, then
ask for help and rely on someone else.
[08:39] Kyros
If you show your gratitude properly,
then there is no embarrassment or crime.
[08:43] Kyros
The true crime is to protect one's
own pride by turning truth into lies,
[08:48] Kyros
and to hold others in contempt.
[08:50] Kyros
That egocentrism is the crime.
[08:54] Kyros
The previous baroness, Sasha, hoped for
your growth as a lord here, didn't she?
[09:02] Gregor
Stop talking!
[09:04] Gregor
What do you know?
[09:06] Gregor
Mother... My mother...
[09:09] Gregor
never expected anything from me!
[09:14] Kyros
So that's it!
[09:16] Kyros
You wanted Lady Sasha to
have high hopes for you.
[09:28] Gregor
I-I... I...
[09:32] Elvira
That's enough! Are you happy
destroying your own house?
[09:37] Elvira
Just how much misfortune must you
bring us before you're satisfied?
[09:40] Elvira
That red hair will bring
unhappiness to everyone!
[09:42] Elvira
Lady Sasha and my darling
Anastasia... you killed them both!
[09:47] Anastasia
Now, look here.
[09:49] Anastasia
I'm sorry to tell you, but I'm not dead.
[09:55] Gregor
Anastasia?
[09:57] Anastasia
Could you please not blame Marie for
all these bizarre offenses you see?
[10:00] Anastasia
And really, I guess my blonde
hair was all you ever saw in me.
[10:05] Elvira
You've come back to me, my Anastasia!
[10:08] Elvira
Oh, this blonde hair!
It's so beautiful! My princess!
[10:14] Anastasia
Stop it.
[10:16] Anastasia
Let go of me!
[10:18] Anastasia
Mama, I have never once been your Anastasia.
[10:25] Marie
Mother. As I thought...
[10:30] Elvira
Hair... My hair!
[10:33] Anastasia
Sh-She has red hair?
[10:38] Mio
It seems that the baron knew.
[10:40] Kyros
To look down on Marie like that when
her own hair is the same color...
[10:45] Elvira
Marie cannot possibly find happiness!
[10:48] Elvira
She has the same red hair as me!
[10:50] Elvira
She isn't like Lady Sasha and Anastasia!
[10:53] Marie
I finally understand.
[10:55] Marie
Mother, you wanted to believe, didn't you?
[10:58] Kyros
Marie... What do you mean?
[11:03] Marie
Mother, for you, to be like
Grandmother and Anastasia,
[11:07] Marie
ladies with small builds and beautiful
blonde hair, was essential for being a "princess."
[11:12] Marie
You must admire and envy them so much.
[11:16] Marie
And that's why you wanted to believe...
[11:19] Marie
believe that women like us, with our
red hair and our height, meet with misfortune...
[11:23] Marie
That it's inevitable.
[11:25] Elvira
Stop talking.
[11:26] Elvira
Stop talking! Stop talking! Stop talking!
[11:28] Elvira
What can you possibly know?
[11:30] Elvira
Someone with red hair can never be happy!
[11:32] Elvira
They can never become a princess!
[11:34] Elvira
Even Lady Sasha never loved me!
[11:37] Elvira
That is how it has always been for me!
[11:41] Marie
I always rejected myself as well.
[11:44] Marie
I thought that no one could ever love me,
and so I closed off my heart.
[11:48] Marie
But...
[11:49] Marie
after meeting Lord Kyros and everyone at the
castle, I've finally realized something.
[11:55] Marie
That I lacked courage...
the courage to face myself.
[12:03] Marie
Lord Kyros, and you, too, Mio...
[12:06] Marie
and everyone from the
castle who isn't here...
[12:09] Marie
I am truly sorry for leading you around and
hurting you with my baseless assumptions.
[12:16] Kyros
Marie.
[12:20] Marie
Mother...
[12:21] Marie
I want to walk into the future with Lord
Kyros and everyone at Granado Castle.
[12:29] Marie
So let's put an end to this now.
[12:34] Elvira
A-Anastasia! You, you are
the one person who always...
[12:40] Anastasia
Mama... no. Elvira Shaderan,
Marie and I are not your dolls.
[12:49] Anastasia
Please don't keep us tied down any longer.
[13:16] Marie; narration
In the end, the House of Granado
took control of the Shaderan lands.
[13:21] Marie; narration
In order to return and become the next lord,
Cedric is studying hard at a school in the capital.
[13:28] Marie; narration
And Father is attending the same school as
Cedric, taking a gruelingly strict course.
[13:35] Marie; narration
If he manages to graduate, he'll
be allowed to become Cedric's valet
SIGN Lord
SIGN Son's
Valet
[13:39] Marie; narration
and return to the Shaderan lands.
[13:42] Marie; narration
His future seems likely to
be filled with difficulty.
[13:48] Liu Liu
Still, that baron certainly
seems to be working hard.
[13:52] Kyros
Well, he found Lady Sasha's
journal in a storehouse.
[13:55] Liu Liu
Journal?
[13:57] Kyros
Yes.
[13:58] Kyros
Apparently, she'd written down her
feelings about the baron and his wife.
[14:03] Kyros
I'm sure it must have given
him something to think about.
[14:07] Marie; narration
Mother was exempt from
any legal consequences,
[14:11] Marie; narration
but now she lives in that
empty house all alone.
[14:19] Luiphon
If you can't open the door, then
how about going in through a window?
[14:23] Anastasia
Stop being silly. I'm grateful that you
gave me a ride on your horse, but...
[14:27] Luiphon
You're no fun. I know you'd feel
forlorn if you were all alone.
[14:31] Anastasia
Th-That's not...
[14:34] Anastasia
No, the truth is, I'm so anxious
I don't know what to do.
[14:38] Anastasia
I've been lying to Old Man Norman
ever since I first met him.
[14:43] (Flashback) Anastasia
I'm Arthur! You got a problem with that?
[14:46] Anastasia
Asking him to allow me to continue working
with him would be entirely too selfish.
[14:51] Luiphon
You cast aside a life of
being treated like a doll,
[14:55] Luiphon
and grabbed the chance of a life
doing what you like, didn't you?
[14:59] Luiphon
In that case, you have to have courage!
[15:01] Luiphon
I'm always on the side
of people who work hard.
[15:03] Luiphon
Now, go on!
[15:05] Anastasia
W-Wait!
[15:11] Anastasia
Old Man Norman...
[15:15] Anastasia
Um, I...
[15:17] Norman
The count told me everything.
[15:19] Norman
I hear your name isn't
Arthur, it's Anastasia.
[15:24] Anastasia
Yes.
[15:29] Anastasia
What? These are...
[15:31] Norman
Yours.
[15:32] Norman
I've ordered hammers and gloves.
[15:35] Norman
Honestly...
[15:37] Norman
I'll have to change all the
tools to suit your hands.
[15:41] Norman
You should've told me the truth
sooner, my idiot apprentice.
[15:48] Anastasia
I'm sorry.
[15:50] Anastasia
I'm so sorry!
[15:56] Anastasia
Thank you!
[15:58] Luiphon
Good. Very good.
[16:02] Luiphon
Now, shall we go, Ringomaru?
[16:11] Marie; narration
And so the height of summer arrived.
[16:34] Marie; internal
Today...
[16:36] Marie; internal
I become the future bride
of the person I love.
[16:54] nobleman
This is delicious!
[16:55] noblewoman
And the plating is beautiful!
[16:57] Toppo
Toppo's cooking is the best in the world!
[17:01] Toppo
I recommend the special apple pie as well!
[17:07] noblewoman A
Oh, how lovely!
[17:09] Tunika
It's because I had such
good material to work with!
[17:12] Tunika
You see? If we do this here...
[17:17] noblewoman B
Oh, how modern!
[17:20] Tunika
By the way,
[17:20] Tunika
this hair oil can be ordered through
the Granado Trading Company in the capital!
[17:26] nobleman A
My, this looks magnificent!
[17:32] Johan
It isn't just looks!
It's also extremely practical!
[17:54] Caecilie
Marie is so beautiful!
[17:57] Caecilie
I wish someone would be my
escort like that sometime.
[18:00] Cedric
Princess?
[18:03] Cedric
Please, take my hand!
[18:04] Cedric
Will you come and dance with me?
[18:08] Caecilie
Yes!
[18:15] Wolfgang
I have waited so impatiently for this day.
[18:20] Tomas
My lady! Master!
[18:23] Anastasia
You look beautiful, Marie!
[18:25] Luiphon
Come now. You are just as beautiful!
[18:28] Anastasia
Ugh, you again?
[18:31] Luiphon
I like it!
[18:32] Luiphon
That honesty of yours that doesn't
hesitate even in the face of royalty.
[18:35] Luiphon
You're a type I've never met before.
[18:40] Luiphon
Say, would you like to
give being my wife a try?
[18:44] Anastasia
Sure.
[18:45] Luiphon
What?
[18:46] Anastasia
What's wrong? The betrothal's
set now, isn't it?
[18:49] Luiphon
A-Actually, the thing is, I already have
five fiancées that I've never seen before.
[18:54] Anastasia
Is that so?
[18:56] Luiphon
Hey! I do happen to be a prince, you know?
[18:59] Anastasia
Oh, I'm so sorry.
[19:02] Anastasia
I have no time to look
after a grumbling prince.
[19:11] Liu Liu
I was worried about what might happen,
but we've made it to this day safely.
[19:16] Liu Liu
I never imagined I'd be able to
see my son shining like this.
[19:20] Mio
It must be because you raised
him with love, Lady Liu Liu.
[19:23] Liu Liu
No, it's thanks to you, Mio.
[19:27] Mio
What?
[19:28] Liu Liu
You stayed beside the two of them
and supported them. Thank you.
[19:35] Liu Liu
So, as the person who had to look
after them, what do you think?
[19:38] Liu Liu
Do you think they'll make
a good married couple?
[19:41] Mio
I'm not sure.
[19:42] Mio
Both of them are still developing, and the
master is currently at the height of puberty.
[19:48] Liu Liu
Stop it! You shouldn't
tell the truth like that.
[19:52] Mio
However, I'm certain that
a happy future awaits them.
[19:56] Mio
As to whether it seems believable or not...
[19:58] Mio
the faces of everyone here at the
castle say it all, don't they?
[20:16] Marie
Lord Kyros.
[20:17] Kyros
Marie, what's wrong?
[20:21] Marie
Nothing. I was just remembering.
[20:24] Marie
Remembering everything from
the day I met you until today.
[20:29] Kyros
When I think about it, we spent most of the
time on different pages from each other.
[20:33] Kyros
That day, when I met you,
my whole world changed.
[20:38] Kyros
You are the first person I ever truly wanted.
[20:45] Kyros
Marie, for being born, for
being at my side... thank you.
[20:51] Marie
No, I'm the one who should thank you.
[20:57] Marie
That day, light shone into
my closed off little world.
[21:03] Marie
Green eyes more beautiful than any
star brought color into my world.
[21:13] Marie
When I hesitated, you took my
hand and moved forward with me.
[21:19] Marie
Things I'd forgotten... Things
I learned for the first time...
[21:23] Kyros
Every single one of them created
the "us" that we are now.
[22:11] Marie; internal
We will find happiness.
[22:15] Marie; internal
As long as we're by each other's sides.
