[00:12] Soldier on Guard
    Halt! This area is off-limits to civilians.
[00:16] Diederich
    Are you calling me a civilian?
[00:19] Soldier on Guard
    I'm very sorry, sir!
[00:25] Diederich
    My mission is top secret. Tell no one of this.
[00:28] Soldier on Guard
    Yes, sir!
[00:36] Diederich
    Bah. Why must that family
     work people so hard?
[00:50] Diederich
    Ah, this should be it.
[00:52] Diederich
    Good God!
[00:54] Diederich
    This is what he's involved himself in?!
[01:06] Sullivan
    This last bit just isn't working.
     What should I do?
[01:12] Sullivan
    Once I perfect the Ultimate Spell,
    the werewolves' anger will cease.
[01:17] Sullivan
    Then the village can live in peace,
[01:20] Sullivan
    and they can visit again.
[02:13] Wolfram
    Young mistress, it's time to sleep—
[02:30] Sullivan
    Wolf.
[02:32] Sullivan
    I've prepared what I need to do my duty.
[03:25] Sign
    Black Butler
[03:27] Sign
    Emerald Witch Arc
[04:45] Ciel
    "It would give me great pleasure if
    the little witch would come to tea with me"?
[04:49] Ciel
    She says that like it's easy.
[04:51] Sebastian
    Her selfishness is royal in scale,
     as befits a queen.
[04:55] Ciel
    There's not much time
     before tomorrow morning.
[04:58] Ciel
    Begin the preparations to leave.
    I'll give you further instructions later.
[05:03] Servants
    Yes, sir!
[05:04] Ciel
    Sebastian, help me dress.
[05:06] Ciel
    And give me a more detailed report
    on the information you've attained.
[05:10] Sebastian
    Of course.
[05:11] Ciel
    And one more thing.
[05:13] Ciel
    Bring me a morning tea
    that will fully wake me up.
[05:19] Sebastian
    Yes, my lord.
[05:40] Sullivan
    As a descendant of the Emerald Witch,
[05:43] Sullivan
    I shall now fulfil the contract made long ago.
[05:47] Sullivan
    O werewolves, witness the Ultimate Spell!
[06:28] Wolfram
    Are you awake?
[06:31] Sullivan
    Wolf.
[06:35] Sullivan
    I remember... I finished the Ultimate
    Spell, and then I was exhausted...
[06:40] Wolfram
    Yes.
[06:42] Wolfram
    You worked hard today, young mistress.
[06:45] Wolfram
    Please, change into your nightclothes.
[07:01] Sullivan
    You're making that face again.
[07:05] Sullivan
    Do you remember the day I succeeded
    to the title of Emerald Witch?
[07:19] Wolfram
    I could never forget it.
[07:22] Sullivan
    Don't look so glum. I'm proud of these feet.
[07:27] Sullivan
    They prove that I'm a descendant
    of the great Emerald Witch.
[07:32] Sullivan
    I'm happy to have completed
    one of my duties as Emerald Witch today.
[07:39] Sullivan
    I don't remember the face of
    the predecessor who gave birth to me,
[07:45] Sullivan
    but I hope she's pleased, too.
[07:48] Wolfram
    Of course she is!
[07:51] Wolfram
    Everyone is proud of you.
[08:03] Sullivan
    But now that I've completed the spell,
    what do you think my next task should be?
[08:11] Wolfram
    Uh, w-well...
[08:13] Sullivan
    Oh, I know! I'll leave the forest
    and study lots of new things!
[08:18] Sullivan
    Then I can help the village—
[08:19] Wolfram
    You mustn't!
[08:22] Sullivan
    What?
[08:24] Wolfram
    You are the Emerald Witch,
    and I am your butler.
[08:29] Wolfram
    Our laws forbid us from
    leaving Wolfsschlucht.
[08:33] Wolfram
    You've had a long day,
    and you're tired. Please, go to sleep.
[08:37] Wolfram
    I'll fetch your nightdress.
[08:48] Sullivan
    All right. I'll sleep.
[09:21] Sullivan
    What's going on?
[09:28] Sebastian
    Good evening, Fräulein Sullivan.
[09:35] Sullivan
    H-How did you two get up here?
[09:38] Sullivan
    You'd die if you fell!
[09:41] Ciel
    What's so surprising?
[09:43] Ciel
    Aren't you a witch who can fly on a broomstick?
[09:47] Sullivan
    C-Ciel, you're back to your senses?
[09:49] Ciel
    Yes. I owe that to you.
[09:52] Ciel
    I wanted to thank you before we left.
[09:54] Sullivan
    You don't need to—
[09:56] Sullivan
    I see.
[09:58] Sullivan
    You want to thank me physically by arranging
     a feast for me on your naked body, correct?
[10:03] Sullivan
    Interesting.
[10:04] Ciel
    No!
[10:07] Sebastian
    Actually, we've arranged to
    give you what you want the most.
[10:12] Sullivan
    What I want the most, you say?
[10:17] Sebastian
    To see the outside world, my lady.
[10:20] Sullivan
    The outside world?
[10:23] Sebastian
    Yes. You'll be able to gain knowledge and
    have experiences you could never have here.
[10:30] Sebastian
    What do you think?
[10:31] Sullivan
    B-But I'm the Emerald Witch,
    and the village laws say...
[10:39] Ciel
    Ah, I see.
[10:41] Ciel
    Well, that's that, I suppose. Sorry for
     suggesting something inappropriate.
[10:45] Ciel
    You can shut the windows
    after us and go back to sleep.
[10:49] Ciel
    We're like dreams, after all.
     Gone before morning.
[10:55] Ciel
    Danke, Freund. Tschüß.
[11:21] Sullivan
    I-I'll go with you.
[11:24] Sullivan
    I want to know more!
[11:32] Sebastian
    In that case, young mistress,
    please change your clothes.
[11:37] Sebastian
    A debutante needs to be formally attired
    for her first steps into a new world.
[11:43] Sebastian
    Your hand, please.
[11:49] Sebastian
    We'll escort you into the unknown.
[12:00] Sullivan
    I say, where are we going?
[12:04] Sullivan
    These stairs don't lead outside.
    They lead further into the Emerald Castle.
[12:12] Ciel
    The outside world lies ahead.
[12:22] Sullivan
    Don't tell me you two went in—
[12:26] Sebastian
    If you speak too loudly,
    the werewolves will notice us.
[12:51] Ciel
    Is this a magic circle?
[12:58] Sebastian
    Completing this magic circle must have
    been the Emerald Witch's duty, correct?
[13:03] Sullivan
    How do you know that?
[13:05] Sebastian
    A snake told me.
[13:07] Sullivan
    You can speak with snakes?
    Are you a warlock?
[13:13] Sebastian
    No, I don't use magic.
    I am merely one hell of a butler.
[13:19] Sullivan
    You have an extraordinary
    magical aptitude within you.
[13:23] Sullivan
    Those excellent genes... I want them!
[13:26] Ciel
    Oi! That's enough idle chitchat.
[13:29] Ciel
    Do you want to make a criminal of my butler?
[13:32] Ciel
    Now, what is this "Emerald Witch's duty"?
[13:34] Ciel
    Does it have something to do with
    the reason you can't leave the village?
[13:43] Sullivan
    You recall me telling you that werewolves have
     a miasma—a bad magic harmful to humans—yes?
[13:49] Sullivan
    The books say that once upon a time,
    the Earth's atmosphere had abundant magic in it.
[13:55] Sullivan
    That magic—the miasma—harms humans,
    but it's like oxygen to magical beasts.
[14:02] Sullivan
    Yet it has been all but lost
    as a result of human prosperity.
[14:07] Sullivan
    They say this is the reason
    we witches lost most of our power, too.
[14:12] Sullivan
    Having lost their magic,
    the werewolves called upon us witches.
[14:17] Sullivan
    They told us to repay them for protecting
    the forest by creating a wellspring of miasma.
[14:23] Ciel
    A wellspring of miasma?
[14:26] Sullivan
    Obeying the werewolves,
    generations of Emerald Witches
[14:30] Sullivan
    strove to perfect a magical working
    that would create miasma.
[14:34] Sullivan
    This is the working I gave to them.
    One that activates the Ultimate Spell.
[14:40] Sullivan
    Once activated, it will produce
    an infinite supply of miasma
[14:44] Sullivan
    more highly concentrated
    than any that's existed before.
[14:47] Sullivan
    If a human were to be exposed to even
    a tiny amount of it, they would die in no time.
[14:54] Sullivan
    The miasma you encountered in the forest
    is what's left of an ancient working.
[14:59] Sebastian
    I see. So that's the history
     you were taught, is it?
[15:07] Sullivan
    What do you mean by that?
[15:18] Sullivan
    Stop! If anyone other than
    the Emerald Witch touches that altar—
[15:22] Sebastian
    Yes? What would happen, exactly?
[15:27] Sullivan
    A disaster... Wait. Huh?
[15:39] Sullivan
    What?
[15:40] Sullivan
    What is this?
[15:43] Sebastian
    All right, Fräulein Sullivan.
    Beyond this point is the true outside world.
[15:49] Sebastian
    If you'd like to turn back, now is your chance.
[15:56] Sullivan
    I'll go on.
[16:44] Ciel
    Oi! Come here, both of you.
[16:57] Sullivan
    So many shining pictures.
[17:00] Sullivan
    Are these a new type of magic circle?
[17:03] Ciel
    Some of these dots are moving.
[17:08] Ciel
    The map looks like Wolfsschlucht.
[17:11] Sebastian
    I understand now. Humans think up
     the most intriguing things.
[17:16] Ciel
    What do you mean?
[17:18] Sebastian
    I believe this shining map and its moving dots
     are displaying the positions of the villagers.
[17:25] Ciel
    Impossible! How could—
[17:29] Ciel
    Wait. Is this the talismans' doing?
[17:35] Sebastian
    Yes. The talismans are most likely
    machines emitting some sort of signal.
[17:40] Sebastian
    Presumably, those signals can
    be received and monitored here.
[17:44] Sebastian
    It's a good thing we left ours behind.
[17:47] Ciel
    People wearing talismans can
    avoid werewolves and their miasma.
[17:52] Ciel
    Who knew there was such
    a high-level mechanism behind that?
[17:55] Sullivan
    I-It's not true!
[17:57] Sullivan
    Our elder offers a special prayer on the
    night of the full moon to make those talis—
[18:02] Sebastian
    Shh. Someone's coming.
[18:04] Man 1
    Come on, hurry!
[18:06] Man 2
    Is it done at last?
[18:11] Ciel
    Who were they?
[18:13] Sebastian
    Let's go see.
[18:40] Sullivan
    What is this?
[18:45] Sebastian
    It appears to be a factory.
[18:51] Ciel
    There are more lifts here.
[19:01] Crone
    Behold! Our Emerald Witch
    has accomplished it at last!
[19:08] Sullivan
    The elder?
[19:10] Crone
    This phial holds a condensed miasma
    more powerful than any before it.
[19:15] Crone
    This will change the course of history!
[19:22] Sullivan
    O werewolves, what is the meaning of this?!
[19:27] Werewolf 1
    The Emerald Witch.
[19:29] Werewolf 2
    It's the Emerald Witch.
[19:31] Werewolves
    Secure her!
[19:34] Werewolf 3
    Are you all right?!
[19:35] Werewolf 4
    Get her a suit, quickly!
[19:37] Werewolf 5
    How did upstairs let this happen?
[19:39] Werewolf 6
    What's the reading?
[19:40] Werewolf 7
    It's green.
[19:41] Werewolf 8
    Thank goodness.
[19:42] Sullivan
    What in the world...
[19:45] Werewolf 9
    Fräulein Sullivan.
[19:51] Sebastian
    Well, Fräulein Sullivan?
[19:53] Sebastian
    The outside world is full of surprises,
     wouldn't you agree?
[19:58] Sullivan
    A... A human... m-man?
[20:02] Ciel
    So the long wolf snouts held masks.
[20:08] Ciel
    Quite the elaborate farce.
[20:11] Ciel
    The "werewolves" are really
    mere humans in costumes.
[20:15] Ciel
    And the "miasma" is really...
[20:19] Ciel
    ...a chemical weapon made
    in this factory. It's a toxic gas.
[20:23] Ciel
    Werewolves and curses don't exist.
[20:26] Ciel
    All of it was made up to trick you.
[20:32] Sullivan
    N-No...
[20:35] Sullivan
    Then what was the magic I made?
[20:39] Crone
    I admit that what you made isn't magic.
[20:43] Crone
    But it is far more wonderful than magic!
[20:46] Crone
    When this fluid is vaporized,
    the tiniest exposure to it
[20:51] Crone
    should kill almost any living creature.
[20:54] Crone
    Take pride! You have created
     the most powerful toxic gas in history!
[21:01] Crone
    And that's right. Such a breakthrough
    chemical weapon deserves a name.
[21:07] Crone
    Sullivan.
[21:09] Crone
    Letzte Waffe.
[21:11] Crone
    Ideal.
[21:12] Crone
    Nebel.
[21:15] Crone
    An acronym of that would be
     "SLeINe..." No, wait, "SuLIN."
[21:21] Crone
    I shall name it "sulin" gas!
