**[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!
