[00:12] Dahlia
Dad, I'm home!
[00:14] Carlo
Welcome back.
[00:15] Dahlia
Today, Professor Lina showed us charmed
lanterns meant for guards on night patrol
[00:20] Dahlia
and the silver firefly wing scales
used to make them.
[00:24] Dahlia
Their color depends on the
land they come from, and...
[00:28] Carlo
Allow me to introduce you.
[00:29] Carlo
This is Tobias of the Orlando Trade Company,
your senior apprentice.
[00:33] Dahlia
Senior apprentice?
[00:34] Carlo
He's been helping me for a while now.
[00:38] Dahlia
He has?
[00:40] Tobias
I'm Tobias Orlando.
[00:43] Dahlia
I'm Dahlia. It's nice to
meet you, Mister Orlando.
[00:48] Tobias
"Tobias" is fine! I'm looking
forward to working with you.

[02:30] Dahlia
It wasn't raining just a bit ago.
[02:39] Ivano
Miss Dahlia?
[02:40] Dahlia
Mister Ivano!
[02:43] Dahlia
Thanks for always helping my father out.
[02:45] Ivano
Not at all.
[02:47] Ivano
He's the one looking out for me.
So what brings you here?
[02:50] Dahlia
He asked me to deliver some documents.
[02:53] Ivano
And now it's suddenly started raining.
[02:59] Ivano
Shall we wait inside for a little while?
[03:03] Dahlia
I think I'll take you up on that kind offer.
[03:10] Ivano
Here you are.
[03:11] Dahlia
Thank you.
[03:13] Ivano
Looks like it'll let up soon.
It's just a passing shower.
[03:21] Dahlia
That's delicious!
[03:23] Ivano
Knowing Mister Carlo, he'd say,
"It's nearly the season for a cold ale."
[03:31] Dahlia
He certainly would. He drinks far too much.
[03:34] Ivano
Still, he's an incredible magic artificer.
[03:39] Ivano
He even had a hand in these lanterns here.
[03:44] Ivano
Thanks to him, they're
much more convenient now.
[03:48] Ivano
Once, when Mister Carlo was here,
[03:51] Ivano
I told him what wonderful
magical devices they are.
[03:56] Ivano
"Magic artificers think and build and think
and build. There's never an end in sight."
[04:04] Dahlia
Is that your impression of my father?
[04:07] Ivano
Was it not good?
[04:08] Dahlia
I've heard him say that since I was little.
[04:11] Dahlia
"Make magical devices that people can
safely use to enrich their daily lives!"
[04:17] Dahlia
"Seek to create magical devices that
will make someone out there smile!"
[04:20] Ivano
Impressive! You sound just like him.
[04:32] Dahlia
I'm back.
[04:36] Dahlia
Oh?
[04:37] Carlo
Well, it suddenly started raining, you know?
[04:41] Dahlia
You could have taken shelter somewhere.
[04:43] Carlo
I could see that heavy
evening shower coming in.
[04:48] Carlo
Know what I mean?
[04:49] Carlo
I saw the boundary between
[04:51] Carlo
where it was raining and where
it wasn't raining getting closer.
[04:55] Dahlia
What?
[04:56] Carlo
So I thought if I ran, I might stay ahead of it.
[05:00] Carlo
Tobias and I ran as fast as we could, but...
[05:03] Dahlia
The rain caught up to you.
[05:05] Carlo
That rain sure did move fast.
[05:09] Dahlia
Just because you can see the rain coming
doesn't mean you can outrun it.
[05:13] Tobias
Thanks to the master's coats,
we didn't get too wet.
[05:19] Dahlia
Don't catch cold, you two.
[05:22] Dahlia
Oh, these are drenched!
[05:24] Dahlia
I'll take them to the laundry shop tomorrow.
[05:26] Dahlia
If these sand lizard coats aren't dried
soon, they'll start smelling rank.
[05:32] Dahlia
And...
[05:37] Dahlia
I just need to make it!
[05:39] Dahlia
I'll make something to keep the rain off
better than a sand lizard coat!
[05:43] Carlo
What?
[05:44] Dahlia
Yes, a fabric that's handy,
light, and can repel water...
[05:49] Dahlia
If I can make waterproof cloth, it's doable.
[05:53] Dahlia
That's it! A raincoat!
I want to make a raincoat!
[06:01] Tobias
Slimes?
[06:02] Tobias
I've never heard of slimes being
used as material for infusing magic.
[06:07] Dahlia
I've tested other monster materials,
but they just don't work out.
[06:12] Dahlia
So I thought about it,
and slimes may be magically weak,
[06:16] Dahlia
but they seem water-repellent, right?
[06:19] Tobias
But how do you plan to apply them
to cloth? They'll just run away.
[06:25] Dahlia
When I pierced just the core of the slime
[06:27] Dahlia
and ran kraken tape through the hole,
it didn't come apart.
[06:31] Dahlia
I'm thinking of doing that and drying them.
[06:34] Dahlia
I'll powder them,
then dissolve them in a liquid.
[06:38] Dahlia
Then, if I can affix that to fabric...
[06:40] Dahlia
Right?
[06:41] Tobias
That's a surprising approach.
[06:44] Dahlia
For now, I'm considering experimenting
with different varieties of slimes.
[06:48] Dahlia
Will you help me?
[06:49] Tobias
S-Sure.
[06:54] Dahlia
Blue slime powder sticks to fabric,
but won't spread over large areas.
[07:02] Dahlia
So next, I plan to test the slime thought
to be the most viscous—the green slime.
[07:11] Lucia
Every day, all you talk about is slimes.
[07:13] Irma
Are you planning to marry a slime or what?
[07:16] Dahlia
I'm not going to marry one.
[07:18] Dahlia
Still, the green slime adheres
over a large area,
[07:22] Dahlia
but the blue slime is more water-repellent.
[07:26] Irma; Lucia
Didn't we just say...
[07:28] Dahlia
This means the question at hand is simple!
[07:31] Dahlia
How far can I push the blue slime's
ability to adhere to fabric?
[07:35] Dahlia
To that end, next time,
I'll try a different liquid.
[07:39] Dahlia
What do you think? Oh, that's right!
[07:41] Dahlia
Will you try on this prototype for me?
[07:45] Irma
If you don't mind, I suppose it's fine.
[07:48] Lucia
But you really are obsessed with slimes.
[07:54] Tobias
Let's do it in shifts.
[07:56] Dahlia
Thank you.
[07:58] Tobias
What is it?
[07:59] Dahlia
The way you can apply magic
so evenly... It's impressive.
[08:03] Tobias
Please don't poke fun at me.
[08:05] Tobias
I'm part of a company responsible
for distributing goods,
[08:07] Tobias
and a magic artificer on top of that.
[08:09] Tobias
Some folks see me as peculiar.
[08:17] Carlo
Dahlia?
[08:19] Carlo
Oh, are you asleep?
[08:35] Carlo
Instead of using just one type of solvent,
you might want to try mixing them.
[08:54] Dahlia
It sticks to the fabric!
[08:57] Dahlia
What do you think?
[08:59] Carlo
I see. You dissolved it in a liquid
[09:02] Carlo
to compensate for the blue slime's lack
of viscosity, allowing it to adhere.
[09:06] Carlo
Yes, this is a good magical device.
[09:09] Tobias
Dahlia, there are still more
tests we need to do.
[09:13] Tobias
We don't know how evenly it
applied or how long it'll last.
[09:17] Dahlia
You're right.
[09:19] Dahlia
I'm curious as to whether it will retain
its properties under harsh conditions.
[09:23] Tobias
Also, the slime may be more likely to
come off at seams and attachment points.
[09:30] Dahlia
I've already thought of a
plan to counteract that.
[09:33] Tobias
What kind of plan?
[09:35] Dahlia
If we treat the attachment points with
a different powder in advance...
[09:41] staff
And it has now been officially recorded
as an invention of Dahlia Rossetti.
[09:46] staff
Perfectly waterproof fabric
and raincoats made of said fabric...
[09:50] staff
These are amazing magical devices!
[09:52] staff
I imagine there will be a flood of orders!
[09:55] Dahlia
Thank you!
[09:57] Dahlia
What a relief. That's that for now.
[10:01] Dahlia
I have to express my gratitude to you, Tobias.
[10:03] Dahlia
Thank you for helping me.
[10:06] Tobias
No, all I did was assist.
[10:10] Tobias
I don't have your inventiveness
or ability to focus.
[10:15] Tobias
Though it pains me to say.
[10:17] Dahlia
Huh?
[10:17] Tobias
Let's head back.
[10:18] Tobias
We have to tell the master we
registered them without issue.
[10:25] Dahlia
Coming!
[10:27] staff
We've gotten more orders, Miss Dahlia!
[10:31] Dahlia
The Guild clerk's prediction came true.
[10:47] Dahlia
We got an unbelievable number
of orders for waterproof fabric.
[10:51] Dahlia
It was good for more than just raincoats.
[10:53] Dahlia
It proved to be very useful
for wagon canopies, as well.
[10:58] Dahlia
When people learned that slimes
were used in the waterproof fabric,
[11:01] Dahlia
I heard that it lead to overhunting.
[11:04] Dahlia
We all worked together
to fulfill all of the orders.
[11:20] Theo
Waterproof fabric is all
anyone is talking about.
[11:23] Carlo
If you hadn't mediated for us throughout,
this would've been a disaster.
[11:29] Carlo
That's the head of the
Orlando Trade Company for ya.
[11:32] Theo
Are you being snide?
[11:33] Carlo
No, you really saved our hides.
[11:36] Theo
Dahlia's talent is astonishing.
[11:40] Theo
I can't wait to see what sort of
magic device she creates next.
[11:44] Carlo
Yeah.
[11:45] Theo
The problem is the possibility of a
proposal from someone you can't refuse.
[11:50] Carlo
If it's to protect Dahlia,
[11:52] Carlo
I could bear to stand back
and watch someone die.
[11:55] Carlo
But if Dahlia thinks her creations
might be of use to someone,
[12:00] Carlo
she could unknowingly make
something dangerous.
[12:03] Theo
Indeed.
[12:05] Theo
Actually, I haven't told anyone yet, but...
[12:08] Carlo
Oh, stop. Are you going to
confess your love for me?
[12:11] Theo
It isn't love, but I do have
a confession for a friend.
[12:15] Theo
My timepiece doesn't even have
a year's worth of sand left in it.
[12:18] Carlo
Stop making terrible jokes.
[12:21] Theo
I'm going to tell my wife soon.
[12:24] Theo
She's not in great shape either, you see.
[12:27] Theo
I'm not worried about Ireneo,
though there's more I wanted to teach him.
[12:32] Theo
The one I worry for is Tobias.
[12:34] Carlo
You can't be serious.
[12:37] Theo
If I were joking, this would be
a lot easier to laugh about.
[12:40] Theo
But all of this is why I've been hoping
that Tobias and Dahlia would marry.
[12:46] Carlo
Theo...
[12:47] Theo
Asking this and offering nothing in return
would disrespect the Hot-Water Device Baron,
[12:52] Theo
so use my company as a shield to protect
Dahlia from the things you're worried about.
[12:59] Carlo
Theo, you...
[13:01] Theo
Will you think about it?
Your friend just spilled his guts to you.
[13:06] Carlo
Tobias will, without a doubt,
become a capable magic artificer.
[13:12] Carlo
You don't have to worry about him.
[13:13] Theo
Carlo...
[13:14] Carlo
But I don't have much time left, either.
[13:18] Theo
If that's a joke, make it funnier.
[13:22] Carlo
Your idea about Dahlia's marriage...
Let's do it.
[13:25] Theo
Carlo, you...
[13:28] Carlo
This is what happens when a magic artificer
sees his will through to the end, right?
[13:32] Theo
Thank you.
[13:33] Carlo
I'm the one who should be thanking you.
[13:41] Dahlia
An engagement?
[13:43] Theo
If you fill out the required information
on this certificate of engagement
[13:46] Theo
and submit it to the Trade Guild,
the two of you will be betrothed.
[13:51] Tobias
If it means that I can protect you
and the Rossetti name, I'll marry you.
[13:58] Carlo
You're both magic artificers.
[14:00] Carlo
I'm sure you'll get along well
and support each other.
[14:03] Carlo
Or rather, I'd like you to
be there for each other.
[14:08] Dahlia
What are you even supposed
to say in a situation like this?
[14:12] Dahlia
Maybe... I look forward
to our future together?
[14:15] Tobias
You're pretty tall, aren't you?
[14:22] Irma
You're betrothed to Tobias?!
[14:23] Dahlia
Well, we're both magic artificers,
[14:26] Dahlia
so I thought we could carry on
the Rossetti name together.
[14:29] Irma
That's all well and good,
but what do you think of Tobias?
[14:33] Dahlia
He's from a merchant family,
so he didn't grow up around artificers,
[14:37] Dahlia
but he's worked hard to become proficient.
I think that's wonderful!
[14:41] Dahlia
Dad said the same thing.
[14:43] Irma
Oh... That's not really what I meant.
[14:46] Dahlia
And, you know, he's very
good at imbuing magic!
[14:50] Irma
Well, if it's fine with you,
then it's fine with me. But still...
[15:06] (Flashback) Carlo
Amazing, Dahlia! I'd never
have thought of that.
[15:10] (Flashback) Carlo
Dahlia, seek to create magical devices
that will make someone out there smile.
[15:14] (Flashback) Carlo
Dahlia, what kind of magic device
do you want to make next?
[15:18] (Flashback) Dahlia
Next, um, next...
[15:21] Dahlia
That's it! The idea I had before.
[15:24] Tobias
Dahlia, the master's asking for you.
[15:26] Dahlia
Oh, thanks, Tobias.
[15:29] Dahlia
I was just putting together that
idea I mentioned to you.
[15:32] Tobias
The tabletop hob?
[15:33] Dahlia
Yes. I'll go right after I jot down these notes.
[15:36] Tobias
Your hair color is a little showy, isn't it?
[15:39] Dahlia
What?
[15:41] Tobias
Your hair. And I think it would be best
to wear slightly plainer makeup, too.
[15:47] Tobias
After all, you're going to be
joining the Orlando Trade Company.
[15:51] Tobias
We can't do anything to besmirch
the Rossetti name, can we?
[15:54] Dahlia
Do you think so? Yes, you're right.
[15:59] Dahlia
Is there anything else?
[16:00] Tobias
Your glasses frames.
Something plainer would be better.
[16:05] Dahlia
Really? Are these too much?
[16:09] Dahlia
All right.
[16:16] Dahlia
Everyone in the Orlando Trade
Company is always so kind.
[16:19] Dahlia
It helps me feel comfortable there.
[16:23] Dahlia
This is delicious.
[16:24] Tobias
My father and older brother are always
talking about how great your creations are.
[16:29] Dahlia
Really? That makes me so happy!
[16:33] Tobias
Could you please not drink so
much alcohol while we're out?
[16:37] Dahlia
What?
[16:37] Tobias
It's unseemly.
[16:39] Dahlia
Do you think so?
[16:40] Tobias
As I've said, we are the Rossetti and Orlando—
[16:44] Dahlia
You're right. I'm sorry.
[16:47] Dahlia
I'll be more careful.
[16:49] Dahlia
You're from the trade company.
[16:51] man
The chairman has collapsed!
I'm on my way to fetch a doctor!
[16:55] Tobias
What?
[16:56] Dahlia
Let's hurry there, Tobias!
[16:58] Dahlia
Is he at the company?
[16:59] man
Yes.
[17:02] staff
This isn't the sort of conversation to have
right after losing the chairman, but...
[17:07] Tobias
What is it?
[17:08] staff
He was the only one with a full grasp
of the company's operations.
[17:12] staff
We don't know how to handle
the most pressing issues.
[17:15] Tobias
What about my brother?
[17:16] staff
He's currently abroad acquiring inventory.
[17:20] staff
What should we do?
[17:24] Dahlia
I'll help, Tobias.
[17:27] Tobias
What do I do?
[17:29] Dahlia
Let's gather everyone together as quickly as
possible and get a sense of the situation.
[17:33] Tobias
R-Right.
[17:46] Dahlia
Dad.
[17:48] Carlo
Dahlia! What brings you here
at this time of night?
[17:51] Carlo
Will you be drinking, too?
[17:53] Dahlia
I've been asked not to drink
too much while I'm out.
[17:57] Carlo
By Tobias?
[17:59] Dahlia
Yes.
[18:00] Carlo
It seems like things at the
company have been sorted out.
[18:03] Dahlia
In part because of your expertise. Thank you.
[18:07] Carlo
I didn't do anything much.
[18:10] Dahlia
What is it?
[18:12] Carlo
Oh, it's nothing.
[18:16] Dahlia
Come to think of it,
it was right around this time.
[18:20] Dahlia
"I could see that heavy
evening shower coming in."
[18:23] Dahlia
"I saw the boundary between
[18:25] Dahlia
where it was raining and where
it wasn't raining getting closer."
[18:30] Carlo
I thought if I ran, I might stay ahead
of it, so I ran as fast as I could.
[18:35] Dahlia
But it caught up to you, didn't it?
[18:36] Carlo
That rain sure did move fast.
[18:40] Carlo
The look on your face when you said
you wanted to make a raincoat...
[18:43] Carlo
I can still see it so clearly.
[18:46] Dahlia
I remembered that magical devices
should be made to make people smile,
[18:51] Dahlia
and the idea just came to me!
[18:53] Carlo
Well, whoever taught you that
must really be something.
[18:57] Dahlia
He is! Though he drinks a little too much.
[19:04] Carlo
Hey, now.
[19:06] Carlo
Tobias is going to be angry with you.
[19:08] Dahlia
You'll keep it a secret, won't you?
[19:11] Carlo
I couldn't possibly refuse a request
from my darling daughter.
[19:24] Ivano
Mister Carlo!
[19:26] Carlo
Nice weather, isn't it?
[19:28] Carlo
It's almost the season
for a delicious cold ale.
[19:31] Ivano
If you drink too much,
Miss Dahlia will be upset with you.
[19:56] Ivano
Someone, fetch a doctor! Hurry!
[19:59] Carlo
D-Dahlia, what kind of magic device...
do you want to make next?
[20:07] staff
Miss Dahlia! Miss Dahlia!
[20:11] Dahlia
Is something the matter?
[20:12] staff
It's Mister Carlo...
[20:15] staff
He collapsed at the Trade Guild.
[20:28] Dahlia
Dad!
[20:38] Ivano
Miss Dahlia... Mister Carlo
seemed just like he always did.
[20:43] Ivano
He said that it's nearly the season
for a delicious cold ale...
[20:48] Ivano
and was gazing out the window.
[20:51] Ivano
His expression was so gentle.
[20:52] Tobias
Master...
