[00:02] Mile
    Pauline-san doesn't seem to be anywhere.
[00:05] Reina
    Where'd she go?
[00:07] Mavis
    I hope she isn't caught up
    in some kind of trouble.
[00:12] Lenny
    Mavis-san, a letter's arrived for you.
[00:18] Mavis
    Thank you.
[00:19] Lenny
    No problem.
[00:22] Mavis
    Oh, it's from my younger older brother.
[00:24] Mile
    "Younger older brother"?
[00:26] Mavis
    I have three older brothers, you see.
[00:29] Mavis
    I call them my elder older brother, middle
     older brother, and younger older brother.
[00:33] Mile
    You do?
[00:35] Mavis
    My brothers worry about me,
    so they send me letters every day.
[00:41] Mavis
    See?
[00:42] Mile
    Every day?
[00:44] Reina
    That's a little...
[00:46] Mavis
    Well, they always write the same thing.
[00:52] Mavis
    He's written saying to come home again.
[00:56] Mile
    Is something wrong?
[00:58] Mavis
    My younger older brother's getting married.
[01:00] Mile
    Oh! Congratulations!
[01:02] Reina
    Is he marrying a noble?
[01:06] Mavis
    The daughter of the Beckett Company...
[01:09] Mavis
    Huh?
[01:11] Mavis
    Pauline?
[01:12] Girls
    What?
SIGN    Didn't I Say to Make My Abilities
    Average in the Next Life?!
SIGN    Episode 8
SIGN    No One Mentioned That Pauline's
    Getting Married, Did They?!
[02:53] Mother
    Pauline!
[02:54] Alan
    Onee-chan!
[02:58] Pauline
    Mother!
[02:59] Pauline
    Alan!
[03:05] Company head
    Welcome back.
SIGN    How was your Hunter training?
SIGN    It's time for you to make yourself useful to us, Pauline.
[03:22] Mavis
    My family, the family of Count Austien,
     is a military family.
[03:27] Mavis
    As the kingdom's sword and shield,
[03:30] ---
    we've won many battles.
[03:32] Mile
    That's a distinguished family line.
[03:35] Reina
    So why would someone from the military
    nobility marry the daughter of a merchant?
[03:40] Mavis
    That's...
[03:43] Company head
    Waging war always requires money.
[03:48] Company head
    As far as Count Austien is concerned,
    the more patrons the better.
[03:51] Company head
    And we get that much closer
    to the royal family, you see?
[03:58] Company head
    Viscount Boardman!
SIGN    Is that any way to look at your own parent?
[04:04] Pauline
    Parent? What are you saying?
SIGN    As a count's family and a merchant's are a poor match for each other,
SIGN    you will become my adopted daughter.
SIGN    As a viscount's daughter, Pauline Boardman, you will be married.
[04:17] Pauline
    Just how much do you plan to
    take advantage of my family?
SIGN    What else do you expect? It is the reason I've kept all of you, after all.
SIGN    Do your best to be useful.
SIGN    It would be best not to turn your magic against me.
SIGN    Look.
SIGN    The reason I allowed you to go to the Hunter training school
[04:42] ---
    was to increase your value as merchandise.
[04:45] Company head
    That's right!
SIGN    Thanks to that, I've found a good prospect.
SIGN    When they heard the bride would be able to use magic, they were overjoyed.
[04:53] Company head
    Overjoyed!
SIGN    The count will be here very soon.
SIGN    Be sure to behave yourself.
[05:00] Company head
    Get it?
[05:11] Mile
    This is Pauline-san's hometown?
[05:14] Mavis
    It seems quite desolate.
[05:16] Reina
    It's just like Lenny said.
[05:19] (Flashback) Lenny
    They say that ever since that town got a
    new company head, it's changed completely.
[05:24] (Flashback) Lenny
    Please, be careful, okay?
[05:26] Mile
    That new company head was
    Pauline's father's enemy, right?
[05:32] Reina
    Yes.
[05:33] Reina
    Pauline was probably forced to come
    back for a political marriage.
[05:38] Mavis
    I know I should be happy that my younger
    older brother's getting married,
[05:42] Mavis
    but I don't want to do anything that
    would trample on Pauline's feelings.
[05:46] Mile
    In that case, should we proceed with the
    intent of crushing this political marriage?
[05:50] Reina
    No objections!
[05:51] Mavis
    Of course.
[05:52] Mile
    Now that's settled, first, we need
     to gather information.
[05:55] Reina
    It'd be nice if we could find
    someone who knows all about it.
[05:58] Small fry A
    Hey! You there. Ladies!
[06:01] Small fry A
    This is your first time in this town, right?
[06:03] Small fry B
    That means you gotta pay the
    entrance fee and passage toll.
[06:07] Small fry C
    If you don't have the money, we wouldn't
    mind you paying with your bodies.
[06:10] Small fry C
    Pant, pant...
[06:11] Mile
    Another easy to read gang has appeared.
[06:14] Small fry B
    We've been hired by this town's company head.
[06:18] Small fry C
    Go against him and things'll get rough.
[06:21] Small fry C
    Pant, pant...
[06:22] Mile
    Someone who knows all about it!
[06:24] Mile
    Um, if we stay here, everyone will see.
     That's embarrassing, so...
[06:28] Mile
    Could we go over there?
[06:33] Small fry
    We're sorry!
[06:35] Mile
    We'd like to ask a few questions. Is that okay?
[06:38] Reina
    If you answer them nicely,
    we'll settle for only half-killing you.
[06:43] Small fry
    We're already half-dead.
[06:45] Mavis
    Tell us everything you know about your master,
     the company head that runs this town.
SIGN    Thank you for coming, Count Austien.
[06:55] Company head
    Thank you so much for agreeing
    to marriage talks with us.
[07:00] Company head
    We of the Beckett Company have,
     for a long time,
[07:03] ---
    wished to pursue an amicable
    relationship with your lordship.
[07:06] Pauline
    I could bring these two down at any time.
[07:07] Company head
    Now that you're here,
[07:09] Pauline
    But then Mother and Alan would...
[07:10] ---
    I can assure you that you will be
    not only completely satisfied,
[07:12] ---
    but overjoyed with this arrangement.
[07:12] Pauline
    I have to find a way to help them get away.
[07:15] Austien
    I've only come today to meet the bride.
[07:19] Austien
    Would it be the lady there?
[07:21] Company head
    Yes!
[07:22] Company head
    Introduce yourself.
[07:25] Pauline
    My name is Pauline.
[07:27] Austien
    Right.
[07:28] Austien
    Will you allow the two of us a
    little time to speak in private?
SIGN    Of course.
SIGN    Pauline, make sure you mind your manners.
[07:41] Pauline
    U-Um, was there something you wanted from me?
[07:45] Austien
    "The Crimson Vow"... I think that was it.
[07:47] Pauline
    What?
[07:48] Austien
    I know that you are a Hunter
    who works with my daughter.
[07:52] Pauline
    Count Austien...
[07:55] Pauline
    So you are Mavis-san's father.
[07:58] Austien
    That's right. And...
[08:00] Austien
    I do not approve of Mavis being a Hunter.
[08:05] Austien
    Perform your duties, and don't
    try anything uncalled for.
[08:09] Austien
    This is a warning.
[08:11] Pauline
    Do you know about me, too?
[08:14] Austien
    My reach extends further than all of you think.
[08:19] Austien
    Understand?
[08:26] Pauline
    I can't give up now,
    after everything that's happened!
[08:31] Mile
    Things are worse than I thought.
[08:33] Reina
    Yes...
[08:34] Reina
    Hoarding merchandise. Monopolies.
    Hiking prices unfairly.
[08:39] Reina
    Those who oppose him are sent to prison
    with no chance to defend themselves.
[08:42] Reina
    The company head here is exhausting
    every limit of evildoing.
[08:47] Mavis
    And since he's connected to the
    local lord, Viscount Boardman,
[08:50] ---
    he can get away with whatever he wants.
[08:52] Mile
    Even setting Pauline-san's situation aside,
    this is unforgivable.
[08:55] Mile
    Let's go storm the place now!
[08:57] Mavis
    Yes!
[08:58] Reina
    Calm down.
[09:00] Reina
    We're up against a viscount this time.
[09:02] Reina
    This is really bad.
[09:04] Reina
    If we mess up, we'll all be fugitives.
[09:07] Mile
    That's... not something we want.
[09:10] Mavis
    We wouldn't be able to work
    as the Crimson Vow anymore.
[09:13] Reina
    We have to move carefully here.
[09:20] Mile
    They just have to not know
    we're the Crimson Vow, right?
[09:24] Reina
    Well. I guess.
[09:25] Mile
    Then leave it to me!
[09:28] Nano
    I feel like Mile-sama is trying to kill
    the seriousness of the situation again.
[09:46] Mavis
    A single flower blooming in the morning mist!
[09:49] Mavis
    Morning Dress Mask!
[09:51] Reina
    A single flower blooming in the sunlight!
[09:54] Reina
    Afternoon Dress Mask!
[09:56] Mile
    A single flower blooming in the moonlight!
[09:59] Mile
    Evening Dress Mask!
[10:03] Nano
    Oh, dear. I knew it.
[10:05] Mile
    We nailed it!
[10:06] Reina
    With these on, it won't matter
    if people see our faces!
[10:09] Mavis
    Yes. That's Mile for you.
[10:14] Private troops
    Intruders!
[10:15] Private troops
    Engage! Engage!
[10:18] Mile
    Oh! Oh no!
[10:34] Mile
    How many of you are there?
[10:41] Pauline
    I wonder what's happened.
[10:43] Mother
    Pauline!
[10:44] Pauline
    Mother!
[10:46] Pauline
    Where are the guards?
[10:47] Mother
    They went to help with the trouble outside.
[10:50] Mother
    It appears something dreadful is happening.
[10:53] ---
    I seized the opportunity and escaped.
[10:55] Pauline
    What about Alan?
[10:56] Mother
    He's safe.
[10:57] Mother
    I asked someone I could trust,
    who got him out of here.
[11:01] Pauline
    I'm so glad.
[11:02] Mother
    I'm so sorry that I'm making
    you go through all of this.
[11:06] Pauline
    Don't be. I made friends I can
    trust at the Hunter school.
[11:11] ---
    I was very happy.
[11:13] Pauline
    I should be apologizing for not having
    fulfilled my duty as a daughter yet.
[11:18] Mother
    You... You couldn't be...
[11:21] Company head
    Oh! So this is where you are!
[11:23] Company head
    My lord viscount! She's over here!
[11:26] Pauline
    Mother, you should hide.
SIGN    What do you think you're doing here?
SIGN    Sit quietly in your room.
[11:34] Pauline
    What's going on outside?
[11:36] Company head
    It's probably just some rabble from
    town who oppose the way we do things.
SIGN    Looks like we'll have to levy some more heavy taxes,
[11:43] ---
    and show them who their masters are.
[11:48] Pauline
    Are you sure this is all right?
[11:50] Pauline
    Count Austien is here, yet you've
    caused an incident like this.
[11:54] Company head
    It's nothing for you to worry about.
[11:57] Company head
    Right now, the full military force of
    this mansion is out there cleaning it up.
[12:01] Pauline
    The full military force...
[12:02] Pauline
    Then there aren't any
    soldiers in here, are there?
[12:06] Company head
    Of course not!
[12:08] Pauline
    I see. Not one.
[12:11] Pauline
    That means...
[12:12] Pauline
    Right now, I can bid the two
    of you a proper farewell.
[12:16] Pauline
    Ice Javelin!
SIGN    Don't do anything stupid!
SIGN    Don't you care what happens to your mother and little brother?
[12:27] Mother
    Don't worry.
[12:30] Mother
    I'm right here.
[12:32] Company head
    What? Why are you here?
[12:34] Company head
    What happened to the guards?
[12:36] Pauline
    Mother!
[12:37] Mother
    Yes!
SIGN    Don't come any closer!
[12:42] Mile
    This is revenge.
[12:45] Mile
    This is revenge.
[12:48] Pauline
    That voice...
SIGN    Wh-What's this?
[12:55] Mile
    This is for revenge!
SIGN    Wh-What are you talking about?
[13:00] Company head
    Who are you?
[13:02] Mavis
    We are champions of justice! The Crimson Vow!
[13:05] Mile
    The Crimson Fountains of Blood!
[13:07] Reina
    Hey! Why are you telling them our name?
[13:10] Mavis
    Sorry, it just slipped out.
[13:12] Mile
    I wonder if they figured it out.
SIGN    Crimson Fountains of Blood?
[13:16] Company head
    What an evil name for a party!
[13:18] Mile
    Thank goodness. We're okay.
[13:21] Pauline
    They all came for me!
[13:24] Austien
    What is all the commotion I've been hearing?
SIGN    Count Austien!
SIGN    Th-This is...
[13:32] Pauline
    This is revenge!
[13:34] Pauline
    Two and a half years ago,
[13:35] ---
    Viscount Boardman and the others here
    hired thieves to kill my father.
[13:40] Pauline
    They forged documents and
    took over the company.
[13:43] Pauline
    And now, they're committing every
    injustice imaginable against this town
[13:46] ---
    in order to line their own pockets!
[13:48] Company head
    How dare you say such things?
SIGN    This girl seems to have taken leave of her senses.
SIGN    Please allow us to handle this matter.
[13:57] Pauline
    My lord count! Please, listen to me!
[14:03] Austien
    I have heard both parties' arguments.
[14:06] Austien
    There is no further need for words!
[14:11] Austien
    Both sides should prove their
    righteousness with the sword!
[14:14] Pauline
    Of course!
SIGN    What?
[14:20] Pauline
    I am Pauline. To avenge my father,
    I am prepared to risk everything.
[14:26] Pauline
    And to my friends who stand
    by me in my vengeance,
[14:29] ---
    entrusting me with their lives
    and futures, I give my thanks.
SIGN    This girl!
[14:35] Company head
    I'll kill you before you can use your magic!
SIGN    What is this?
[14:45] Company head
    I'm sinking!
SIGN    Wh-When did you cast the spell?
[14:51] Pauline
    Earlier, while I was praying.
[14:54] Pauline
    You don't have to say a
    spell aloud, you know.
[14:56] ---
    You can just think it in your head.
[14:58] Pauline
    Didn't you know that?
SIGN    Y-You can use shadow casting?
SIGN    That advanced technique where you don't chant the spell?
[15:05] Pauline
    Yes!
[15:08] Company head
    Oh, I stopped.
[15:12] Pauline
    Count your transgressions.
[15:24] Pauline
    Mother...
[15:26] Mother
    Pauline... It's all over.
[15:28] Pauline
    Yes.
[15:30] Pauline
    My lord count, thank you very much.
[15:34] Mother
    With this, my late husband can rest easy.
[15:37] Austien
    Gratitude is unnecessary.
    I knew of their evil deeds.
[15:40] Austien
    This just happened to be a good
    opportunity to pass judgment on them.
[15:44] Austien
    My true objective lies elsewhere.
[15:47] Austien
    When I first heard of these marriage
    talks from Viscount Boardman,
[15:50] Austien
    and learned that you were the other
    party involved, I began planning.
[15:55] Austien
    Meeting at the Hunter school...
[15:57] ---
    The progress of the Crimson Vow...
[15:59] Austien
    Your bonds are strong.
[16:01] ---
    And for that very reason, you would not
    fail to rescue a friend in dire straits.
[16:06] Austien
    Isn't that right, Mavis?
[16:08] Mavis
    I am a single flower blooming
    in the morning mist!
[16:11] Mavis
    Morning—
[16:12] Austien
    I am your father. You can't fool me.
[16:15] Mile
    To think someone could see
    through these perfect disguises.
[16:18] Reina
    Is this the bond between parent and child?
[16:21] Nano
    Thinking that these masks
    would work as a disguise...
[16:24] Nano
    You've all been completely Mile-sama-ified.
[16:28] Austien
    You're coming home, Mavis.
[16:30] Mavis
    Father...
[16:32] Mile
    Please, wait. Mavis-san is important
    to us as a teammate and a friend.
[16:36] Reina
    Don't just take her away with you!
[16:38] Austien
    This is a family matter.
[16:40] ---
    You have no say in it.
[16:42] Austien
    If you want to pretend to be a knight,
    I'll see you get some lessons.
[16:47] Austien
    Come back home.
[16:48] Mavis
    Father...
[16:52] Mavis
    No.
[16:54] Mavis
    The Crimson Vow is not a game.
[16:56] Mavis
    I want to become a true knight.
[16:59] Austien
    You don't even know what a knight
    really is, and you say such things...
[17:04] Austien
    Teach her how a sword should be used.
[17:05] knights
    Yes, sir!
[17:07] Knight A
    My lady!
[17:08] Knight B
    Please forgive us.
[17:09] Mavis
    Godspeed Sword! 1.2x speed!
[17:14] Austien
    What?
[17:16] Mavis
    With this, I'm sure you understand.
[17:18] Mavis
    The person I am now is not the person you knew.
[17:21] Mavis
    Everything is thanks to my master there.
[17:28] Mile
    Me?
[17:29] Austien
    She's your master?
[17:31] Mavis
    That's right, Father!
[17:33] Austien
    Interesting.
[17:34] Austien
    In that case, if she's stronger than me,
[17:37] ---
    I'll let you have your way for a while.
[17:40] Mavis
    What? Father, does that mean...
[17:47] Mile
    How did things turn out like this?
[17:49] Mavis
    I'm sorry, Mile!
[17:51] Austien
    Here I come!
[17:55] Mile
    He's fast.
[17:56] Reina
    Your dad seems pretty strong...
[17:58] Mavis
    It's because he's always going off to battle.
[18:01] Mavis
    My father's swordwork was forged on
    the battlefield, gained through real combat.
[18:09] Austien
    What's wrong? Is this all you've got?
[18:11] Mile
    Um, could I have a moment?
[18:13] Austien
    What is it?
[18:14] Mile
    It's a lot harder to move
    than I thought it would be.
[18:18] Mile
    And it's hard to see.
[18:20] Mile
    Okay! Here I come!
[18:23] Austien
    What?
[18:27] Mile
    Oh, you stopped me.
[18:28] Mile
    Then I'll go faster.
[18:32] Austien
    Her form is haphazard.
[18:34] Austien
    You can't call it swordwork,
    but she's got power and speed.
[18:38] Austien
    This strength... It's not human!
[18:41] Austien
    And yet!
[18:46] Austien
    Whoever you are, you will return Mavis to me!
[18:49] Mile
    Why do you go so far to oppose her?
[18:51] Austien
    Hunters can die at any moment!
[18:54] Austien
    You think I'd stand by and
    let Mavis become one of them?
[18:58] Austien
    I raised Mavis.
[19:00] Austien
    Dancing, singing,
    playing musical instruments...
[19:03] Austien
    She learned every skill she
    would need to enter society.
[19:05] ---
    I made her the perfect lady!
[19:08] Austien
    What does she have to be unhappy about?
[19:10] Mile
    Mavis-san doesn't want any of that!
[19:14] Austien
    Whether she wants it or not, I have
    decided that it will make Mavis happy!
[19:18] Mile
    That is an outdated way of thinking!
[19:25] Austien
    I knew it. You are no ordinary girl.
[19:27] Austien
    Are you a dwarf? A half-breed?
[19:30] Mile
    I'm just a normal, average human girl!
[19:33] Austien
    That's a lie!
[19:35] Mile
    It's the truth!
[19:42] Mile
    End of match.
[19:46] Austien
    A man does not go back on his word.
[19:48] Reina
    She did it!
[19:51] Mavis
    Father...
[19:54] Mavis
    For loving me, for taking care of me,
[19:58] ---
    I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
[20:01] Mavis
    But even so, I want to become a knight.
[20:04] Mavis
    A knight like you. No...
    A knight even greater than you.
[20:08] Mavis
    So, please—
[20:09] Austien
    Miss Master.
[20:11] Mile
    Huh? Oh, me?
[20:14] Austien
    Please take care of my daughter, Mavis.
[20:17] Mile
    Oh, I'm still not much
    good at anything, but...
[20:20] Mavis
    Father...
[20:23] Mavis
    Thank you!
[20:27] Girls
    Mavis!
[20:28] Mavis
    Guys! I'm looking forward to
    continuing to work together!
[20:31] Mile
    Am I Mavis-san's guardian now?
[20:37] Pauline
    Well, I'll be off now.
[20:38] Mother
    Take care of yourself.
[20:40] Alan
    Onee-chan, leave the company to me!
[20:42] Pauline
    I'm counting on you, Alan.
[20:48] Alan
    Work hard! You can do it!
[20:53] Austien
    Mavis...
[20:55] Austien
    Mavis!
[21:01] Austien
    Mavis! No, please don't go!
[21:05] Mile
    Mavis-san, your father really is chasing
    after us with everything he's got.
[21:09] Pauline
    The way you cry is exactly the same!
[21:11] Mavis
    Driver, please make the cart go faster!
[21:14] Austien
    Wait!
[21:17] Mile
    Don't you feel a little
    sorry for him, Mavis-san?
[21:21] Mavis
    He's fine. He did the same thing
    when I left for the Hunter school.
[21:24] Mavis
    So did my brothers. All of them together.
[21:26] Reina
    I see.
[21:28] Mile
    Pauline-san, are you sure
    you're okay with this?
[21:31] Reina
    You have to rebuild the company
    from scratch, don't you?
[21:34] Pauline
    As long as my mother's there,
    everything will be fine.
[21:36] Pauline
    And my little brother is going to take over.
[21:39] Mavis
    I know how it sounds coming from me,
[21:41] ---
    but isn't it lonely,
    being away from your family?
[21:43] Pauline
    I can come back anytime.
[21:46] Pauline
    And the Crimson Vow, all of you,
    to me you're already family.
[21:56] Pauline
    Thank you for coming to save me.
[21:59] Reina
    W-We're family, so... you shouldn't
    just go off on your own!
[22:03] Mile
    Reina-san, you sure you should
    be the one saying that?
[22:05] Reina
    No one asked you!
SIGN    Didn't I Say to Make My Abilities
    Average in the Next Life?!
