[00:00] Dahlia
    Since it's you, I'm sure it'll be fine,
[00:03] Dahlia
    but please do be careful.
[00:06] Wolf
    I will.
[00:09] Wolf
    Indeed, nothing happened.
[00:12] Wolf
    If it was blood-fixed,
    do you think I could fly, too?
[00:15] Dahlia
    Even without external magic energy,
    you might be able to a little.
[00:20] Wolf
    If you're just going to seal it away,
    could you blood-fix it to me instead?
[00:25] Wolf
    I'll pay for the bracelet, of course.
[00:28] Dahlia
    What? But...
[00:30] Wolf
    It'll only work for me that way,
[00:33] Wolf
    but if I train my physical abilities,
    I think I could make good use of it.
[00:38] Dahlia
    By which you mean...
[00:40] Wolf
    If all I can do is jump up and drop down,
[00:42] Wolf
    then if I use strengthening magic,
    I'll be fine when I fall.
[00:45] Dahlia
    Even so, I can't possibly
    use you as a test subject.
[00:50] Wolf
    Don't you want to know what this can do?
[00:54] Wolf
    Plus, we'll be testing the synergy between
    strengthening magic and sköll fangs!
[01:00] Dahlia
    I don't need payment for the bracelet.
    I look forward to testing it with you.
[01:26] Dahlia
    Now this bracelet is yours alone.
[01:34] Wolf
    Thank you, Dahlia!
     Let's go test it right now.
[01:39] Dahlia
    Sure.

[03:16] Wolf
    Dahlia, stay back just in case!
[03:35] Dahlia
    Are you all right?! You don't feel sick?
[03:39] Wolf
    No. It's so much fun!
[03:43] Dahlia
    Huh?
[03:45] Wolf
    It's like it gives my strengthening
    a little extra push.
[03:49] Wolf
    It feels easier to jump than before.
[03:52] Wolf
    I'm going to try it a bit more!
[04:05] Dahlia
    Incredible...
[04:07] Dahlia
    Wolf! I know you're having fun,
    but let's leave it at that!
[04:12] Dahlia
    It would be bad if anyone saw you!
[04:15] Wolf
    All right. I'll make this my last one.
[04:23] Wolf
    Dahlia, won't you please sell
    this to me officially?
[04:30] Dahlia
    Then consider it a token of gratitude
    for being a guarantor of my company.
[04:38] Wolf
    There you go again, trying to give me things.
[04:41] Dahlia
    It's thanks to you that I was even
     able to discern its effects.
[04:45] Wolf
    But if that's all, this is a
    net loss for you, isn't it?
[04:48] Dahlia
    In that case, why not meet in the middle?
    Would you give me two potions?
[04:53] Wolf
    Yes, with pleasure.
[04:55] Wolf
    Oh, but if possible,
[04:57] Wolf
    I'd prefer that you not perform any
     dangerous experiments by yourself.
[05:01] Wolf
    It'd be terrible if something happened
    while you were alone.
[05:05] Dahlia
    Yes, that's true.
[05:07] Dahlia
    And the front gate can only be opened
    by those who are magically registered.
[05:13] Wolf
    Then, if it's all right with you,
     would you register me?
[05:17] Dahlia
    Yes, of course!
[05:20] Dahlia
    I'd feel very reassured having you registered.
[05:30] Wolf
    So it isn't the type where you perform the
    magic registration on the gate itself?
[05:34] Dahlia
    That's right. Can I ask you to place
    your hand in the center, please?
[05:37] Wolf
    All right.
[05:45] Dahlia
    It's done.
[05:46] Wolf
    Thank you, Dahlia.
[05:48] Dahlia
    I'm the one who should be thanking you.
[05:51] Dahlia
    I feel awkward asking you to do this,
[05:56] Dahlia
    but if ever you can't reach me
    for an extended period
[05:58] Dahlia
    or if you suspect the worst,
    I'd appreciate it if you called in the guard.
[06:04] Wolf
    I hope the need for that never arises,
[06:07] Wolf
    but I do feel a little better about things now.
[06:11] Wolf
    I suppose all that's left is this.
[06:13] Dahlia
    Conversational manners of the nobility?
[06:17] Dahlia
    I didn't realize there was so much to it.
[06:20] Wolf
    Yes. Things you should avoid saying would be...
[06:24] Wolf
    starting right here.
[06:26] Dahlia
    "Please remove your gloves for me."
[06:30] Dahlia
    Oh, this is like what you told me about before!
[06:34] Dahlia
    "Please allow me to hold your coat."
[06:38] Dahlia
    Why would you ever leave
    your coat with someone else?
[06:41] Dahlia
    "I'm so tired from dancing,
    I don't think I can move."
[06:44] Dahlia
    In that case, I feel like it'd be
    best to hurry home and rest.
[06:50] Dahlia
    "Would you come look at the stars
    from the west window with me?"
[06:54] Dahlia
    Does it have to be the
    west window specifically?
[06:57] Wolf
    I'm sorry, Dahlia!
[07:00] Wolf
    If you could possibly refrain
    from saying them aloud, please...
[07:05] Dahlia
    I'm sorry!
[07:08] Dahlia
    I-It seems I have a visitor. I'll go and see.
[07:13] Wolf
    I'm saved...
[07:21] Marcella
    Hey!
[07:22] Dahlia
    Mister Marcella!
[07:24] Dahlia
    What brings you here?
[07:26] Marcella
    This.
[07:28] Dahlia
    What is it?
[07:30] Dahlia
    Oh, clams! They look delicious.
[07:33] Marcella
    It's the perfect season for them, right?
[07:35] Dahlia
    Thank you. I'm delighted.
[07:38] Marcella
    They're heavy. Shall I carry them up?
[07:40] Dahlia
    Oh, I actually have company today.
[07:46] Dahlia
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[07:49] Wolf
    Welcome back.
[07:52] Wolf
    What's this?
[07:54] Dahlia
    Wolf, do you like clams?
[07:57] Dahlia
    A friend brought me these.
    Shall we have them for dinner?
[08:01] Wolf
    Yes, I'd love that!
[08:04] Wolf
    I brought this. Would it be
    difficult to pair with the clams?
[08:10] Dahlia
    Is that whiskey?
[08:12] Wolf
    I think it's apple brandy
    that's been slightly aged.
[08:16] Wolf
    The ducal Lady Althea gave it to me
    and said to share it with a friend.
[08:21] Dahlia
    Oh, thank you!
[08:25] Dahlia
    Since you've brought it,
    shall we have some after dinner?
[08:29] Wolf
    All right. In that case, let's have the
    usual white wine with the clams.
[08:35] Wolf
    To the Rossetti Company's prosperity
    and the good fortune of tomorrow.
[08:39] Dahlia
    To peaceful hearts and minds.
[08:41] Wolf; Dahlia
    Cheers!
[08:46] Wolf
    This is astoundingly delicious!
[08:48] Dahlia
    Maybe because they're so fresh.
[08:51] Wolf
    To make sure we don't miss out on a drop
    of this, we may have to eat from the pan.
[08:57] Dahlia
    Eating straight from the pan
    isn't very good manners.
[09:01] Dahlia
    Better not do that just anywhere.
[09:03] Wolf
    Then I'll limit it to clams steamed
    in white wine at the Green Tower!
[09:12] Dahlia
    Oh, that goes down easy!
[09:15] Dahlia
    The flavor and aroma are wonderful.
[09:18] Wolf
    She said the queen enjoys it as well,
    so she sends her some every year.
[09:23] Dahlia
    To Her Majesty?
[09:25] Wolf
    The queen is Lady Althea's younger sister,
    though they aren't related by blood.
[09:30] Dahlia
    Er, I feel like I just heard
    something rather incredible.
[09:35] Wolf
    It's somewhat well-known.
[09:39] Dahlia; internal
    I don't know how many times in my life
    I'll have the chance to drink this.
[09:48] Dahlia
    Is something wrong?
[09:50] Wolf
    You looked like a squirrel,
    and it made me laugh.
[09:53] Dahlia
    A squirrel?
[09:54] Dahlia
    I was just making sure to savor it, that's all.
[09:57] Wolf
    It's so good that it makes me
     wish we had brandy glasses.
[10:02] Dahlia
    Let's go shopping for them together sometime.
[10:05] Wolf
    Sure, though it probably won't be until
    after things with the company settle down.
[10:11] Dahlia
    Yeah. I actually have a meeting with Mister
    Ivano tomorrow to discuss what comes next.
[10:17] Wolf
    Oh, speaking of which...
[10:19] Wolf
    I know my recommending Ivano
    for employment was sudden.
[10:23] Wolf
    You didn't mind, did you?
[10:24] Dahlia
    Quite the opposite. I was grateful.
[10:27] Dahlia
    That said, our first project has
    been a rather difficult one.
[10:31] Wolf
    I suppose, yes.
[10:34] Wolf
    But I think it will end up
    helping a lot of people.
[10:38] Dahlia
    I'm glad to hear you say that.
[10:42] Dahlia
    On the subject, are any countermeasures
    applied to your boots themselves?
[10:47] Dahlia
    Like purification magic, for example?
[10:49] Wolf
    I've never heard of anyone using that.
[10:52] Wolf
    Leather boots don't dry quickly,
     so I try not to wash them very often.
[10:57] Dahlia
    Using a dryer wouldn't work?
[10:59] Wolf
    I've tried it, but the heat
     damages the leather.
[11:05] Dahlia
    If all you need is to lower the heat,
     I can adjust that in no time.
[11:09] Dahlia
    I'll go and try it right now!
[11:13] Wolf
    Can I go with you?
[11:16] Dahlia
    If the wind is no warmer than the touch of a
    hand, it shouldn't damage the leather, right?
[11:22] Wolf
    I think that'd be fine.
[11:27] Dahlia
    How about this?
[11:32] Wolf
    Yes, that seems perfect.
[11:37] Wolf
    Is there a way to make sure it
    reaches all the way to the toes?
[11:41] Dahlia
    If I attach a hose from a water heater...
[11:44] Dahlia
    then poke some holes along its length,
    I think it should reach everywhere.
[11:50] Wolf
    Good idea! That does seem like
    it'd dry all the way to the toes.
[11:53] Dahlia
    For the moment, shall we test it with these?
[12:01] Dahlia
    There's something inside.
[12:04] Dahlia
    Honestly, Dad!
[12:07] Wolf
    Um, are you going to keep that as a memento?
[12:13] Dahlia
    I'm going to burn it!
[12:20] Dahlia
    I'm done.
[12:22] Wolf
    It's dry all the way through to the
    toe... and there's no damage.
[12:26] Wolf
    If we had just one of these,
    everyone would be able to use it!
[12:30] Dahlia
    Yes, but if you're going
     to be sharing the device,
[12:33] Dahlia
    it's probably best to stick
    to freshly washed pairs.
[12:37] Dahlia
    It spreads, you see?
[12:40] Wolf
    It spreads?
[12:41] Dahlia
    I'm sure you'll be fine
    so long as you take care.
[12:44] Dahlia
    Wash thoroughly between your toes.
[12:47] Dahlia
    After you've bathed, dry them
    carefully and apply medicine.
[12:52] Dahlia
    Also...
[12:53] Wolf
    Just a moment! Let me write this down.
[12:57] Dahlia
    Here.
[13:05] Wolf
    Thank you. I'll share all this
     with my friends, too.
[13:08] Wolf
    But I have to say, Dahlia, you're very
    knowledgeable about foot fungus.
[13:13] Dahlia
    My father had it.
[13:15] Wolf
    Your father did?
[13:18] Dahlia; internal
    In my previous life.
[13:20] Dahlia; internal
    I'm sorry, Dad!
[13:22] Dahlia
    Oh, would you like to try this
    at the barracks to test it out?
[13:27] Dahlia
    I'd be grateful if you'd tell
    me your thoughts on it later.
[13:31] Wolf
    Of course, and thank you. But I feel as if
    something like this just happened recently...
[13:39] Wolf
    If I use this at the barracks,
[13:40] Wolf
    won't it be like the five-toed
    socks and insoles all over again?
[13:45] Dahlia
    This is just a minor modification,
    so I wouldn't think so...
[13:51] Dahlia
    But I'll consult with Mister Ivano,
    just in case.
[13:55] Wolf
    Good.
[13:57] Ivano
    I am truly, from the bottom of my heart,
    glad that you came to me first.
[14:03] Dahlia
    Do you really think it will sell that well?
[14:06] Ivano
    It will. And I'll push it
    with everything I've got.
[14:10] Ivano
    Just given the market
    that comes to mind offhand,
[14:12] Ivano
    I think we can make a massive profit.
[14:15] Ivano
    When did you start developing this?
[14:18] Dahlia
    Yesterday.
[14:19] Ivano
    What?
[14:20] Dahlia
    I think it took about
    twenty minutes to make.
[14:24] Dahlia
    Oh, but I've done the proper safety checks!
    Please don't worry on that account.
[14:29] Ivano
    Miss Dahlia, if there are other items you're
    considering creating or prototyping,
[14:34] Ivano
    or if there's anything you'd like to make,
    please tell me as soon as you have the idea.
[14:39] Ivano
    I'd like to be able to brace myself...
    I mean, consider future sales avenues.
[14:45] Dahlia
    Let's see... Other than the items
    that are already in progress,
[14:49] Dahlia
    I'd like to make the small
    magic hob even smaller,
[14:52] Dahlia
    and I'd like to make my
    waterproof fabric lighter.
[14:54] Dahlia
    The only item I'm prototyping is a
    refrigerator with a freezer attached.
[14:59] Dahlia
    Other things I'd like to make include
    a magic device for drying clothes
[15:03] Dahlia
    and a pot that would be handy for cooking.
[15:05] Dahlia
    Oh, I'm also thinking about
    a home heater for the winter.
[15:10] Dahlia
    Also, I'm not planning on selling them,
[15:13] Dahlia
    but I'm prototyping a faux magic sword.
[15:16] Ivano
    I see.
[15:18] Ivano
    Leave the logistics of mass production
    and sales avenues to me.
[15:21] Ivano
    I'll register every single
    item and sell them all.
[15:25] Ivano
    But that last one, the faux magic sword...
[15:29] Ivano
    I recommend not letting word of that get out.
[15:31] Dahlia
    So you do think that's a bad idea?
[15:34] Dahlia
    A magic artificer making weapons, I mean...
[15:36] Ivano
    No, that's not the problem.
[15:40] Ivano
    One wrong move and you might be taken away
    by bad people or important personages.
[15:47] Dahlia
    Me?
[15:49] Ivano
    If your magic swords reach the point where
    they could increase our military might,
[15:54] Ivano
    it's entirely possible.
[15:56] Ivano
    And in that case, they could be
    exported to countries with few mages.
[16:01] Dahlia
    I hadn't thought that far ahead.
[16:05] Dahlia
    Oh!
[16:06] Dahlia
    U-Um...
[16:09] Dahlia
    I also made a magic device
    imbued with wind magic.
[16:12] Dahlia
    It's been blood-fixed, so only Wolf can use it,
[16:15] Dahlia
    but it has potential in battle.
[16:17] Ivano
    Oh, if only a specific individual
    can use it, that's fine.
[16:21] Ivano
    From now on, if you're ever
    worried about anything, come to me.
[16:25] Ivano
    That's what I'm here for.
[16:28] Dahlia
    I'm afraid I'll be troubling you quite often.
[16:31] Ivano
    Also, here you are.
[16:33] Ivano
    A copy of my church-sworn contract.
[16:36] Ivano
    I'd like for you to keep it, Miss Dahlia.
[16:40] Dahlia
    "Ivano Badoer will not intentionally
[16:44] Dahlia
    disadvantage Dahlia Rossetti
    or the Rossetti Company."
[16:49] Ivano
    I thought it might help you feel more
    at ease entrusting everything to me.
[16:54] Ivano
    I want you to feel free to make
    whatever you want to make.
[16:59] Dahlia
    All right. I'll be sure to keep this safe.
[17:02] Ivano
    I'm looking forward to seeing you register
    more items than Mister Carlo did.
[17:09] Dahlia
    Thank you, Mister Ivano.
[17:13] Dahlia
    I'll do my best to catch up to my father.
[17:16] Ivano
    Very good. Now, let's draw up the
    paperwork for your new magic device!
[17:25] Gabriella
    This shouldn't be a problem.
[17:26] Gabriella
    If Ivano has checked it, I can't
    imagine there are any errors.
[17:30] Gabriella
    Just leave the rest to me.
[17:34] Dahlia
    Um, about Mister Ivano...
[17:39] Gabriella
    He chose this for himself.
[17:41] Gabriella
    I imagine you're about to become very
    busy, so I'd say the timing was perfect.
[17:45] Gabriella
    Ivano will be able to handle
     the areas where you're lacking.
[17:51] Gabriella
    What is it? Does it still bother you?
[17:54] Dahlia
    No, it's just...
[17:57] Dahlia
    I feel bad for being such an
    undependable company chair.
[18:01] Dahlia
    It's a little late for that, though.
[18:04] Gabriella
    Still, there's no need to be in a hurry.
    I still feel Carlo owes me a debt, anyway.
[18:10] Gabriella
    You could rely on me a little more.
[18:14] Dahlia
    A debt...
[18:16] Dahlia
    Gabriella, I have a favor to ask.
[18:19] Dahlia
    Please call off my father's debt to you.
[18:22] Gabriella
    What could you possibly mean?
[18:25] Dahlia
    I'm the one who owes you a debt.
[18:28] Dahlia
    I don't know how many years it will take,
[18:30] Dahlia
    but I promise I'll repay you.
[18:34] Gabriella
    Oh, honestly.
[18:36] Dahlia
    I'm sorry. I know I'm being impertinent, but...
[18:40] Gabriella
    That isn't what I meant. There's
    more to what I told you before.
[18:46] (Flashback) Carlo
    Gabriella,
[18:48] (Flashback) Carlo
    if Dahlia ever has trouble,
    either as a magic artificer or as a woman,
[18:52] (Flashback) Carlo
    please give her advice.
[18:55] (Flashback) Carlo
    Granted, my Dahlia is the type who'll
    want to repay her debts herself.
[19:02] Dahlia
    My father said that?
[19:03] Gabriella
    It was like a prophecy.
[19:05] Gabriella
    I would hate to not have you
    indebted to me anymore,
[19:08] Gabriella
    so I will continue to meddle as I have been.
[19:11] Gabriella
    If you think you can repay me, go right ahead.
[19:15] Dahlia
    Thank you!
[19:19] Ivano
    Apologies for interrupting.
[19:24] Ivano
    The captain of the monster suppression
    force, Marquis Grat Bartoloni,
[19:29] Ivano
    has sent a messenger to see
    the head of the Rossetti Company.
[19:32] Ivano
    He says he's their vice captain,
     Sir Grizelda Lanza.
[19:36] Dahlia
    What?
[19:38] Gabriella
    Dahlia, what have you done this time?
[19:43] Grizelda
    Pleased to meet you.
[19:45] Grizelda
    I am the vice captain of the
    Ordine Kingdom's monster suppression force.
[19:49] Grizelda
    My name is Grizelda Lanza.
[19:52] Grizelda
    The captain of the monster
    suppression force, Grat Bartoloni,
[19:56] Grizelda
    has entrusted me with a missive
    for the head of the Rossetti Company.
[20:04] Grizelda
    A verbal answer will suffice,
[20:06] Grizelda
    so would it be possible to have
    your reply here and now?
[20:10] Dahlia
    Thank you for delivering this.
    Allow me to read it over.
[20:20] Dahlia
    What?
[20:22] Grizelda
    May I read it, as well?
[20:25] Dahlia
    Y-Yes.
[20:26] Gabriella
    An invitation to the palace, is it?
[20:30] Grizelda
    Madam Chair of the Rossetti Company,
    have you any plans tomorrow?
[20:35] Dahlia
    I d-don't.
[20:39] Dahlia
    Why did I receive something like this?
[20:42] Ivano
    The palace seems likely to work
     on a more leisurely schedule.
[20:48] Gabriella
    So they're either in a hurry or they
     very much want to see Dahlia.
[20:54] Gabriella
    In any case, we must prepare in all haste.
[20:57] Gabriella
    Dahlia and I will go to a clothing lender.
[20:59] Gabriella
    After that, we'll make an
    appointment for hair and makeup.
[21:02] Dahlia
    Right.
[21:04] Gabriella
    Ivano, you will accompany her
    to the palace as her attendant.
[21:08] Gabriella
    Also, gather up any five-toed
    socks and insoles we have.
[21:14] Ivano
    Right away!
[21:15] Gabriella
    After that, the two of you will study.
[21:18] Gabriella
    I'll drill the bare minimum of
    greetings and etiquette into you.
[21:22] Gabriella
    We have my husband's and Lord
    Wolfred's reputations to consider,
[21:25] Gabriella
    so you'll be memorizing everything.
[21:26] Dahlia; Ivano
    Thank you for your tutelage!
[21:35] Dahlia

[21:38] Ivano
    I know what you mean.
[21:43] Gabriella
    Your break is over.
[21:48] Gabriella
    Now, let's continue.
[21:51] Dahlia; Ivano
    Yes, ma'am!
[22:00] Ivano
    Well, let's go!
[22:02] Dahlia
    I'll be counting on you.
