[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...
