[00:03] Ren
    Your Highness, may I have a moment?
[00:08] Ren
    Your Highness?
[00:12] Ren
    Your Highness!
[00:13] Ren
    Are you all right?
[00:15] Linden
    Yes.
[00:16] Linden
    It's nothing. I'm just a
    little tired, that's all.
[00:19] Ren
    If you aren't feeling well, then why not go
    to the Imperial Cross Hospital for an exam?
[00:24] Linden
    There's no need for that.
    It's just mild dizziness.
[00:28] (Flashback) Ron
    I experience this level of
    dizziness all the time.
[00:31] (Flashback) Elise
    If you experience dizziness regularly,
    it may indicate something else.
[00:36] (Flashback) Elise
    It won't take up much of your time.
[00:38] (Flashback) Elise
    Won't you allow someone to examine you?
[00:41] Ren
    Your Highness?
[00:42] Linden
    It's nothing.
[02:20] Graham
    It's Graham.
[02:22] Gaut
    Come in.
[02:32] Graham
    Is something wrong?
[02:33] Elise
    No, nothing's wrong.
[02:37] Elise; internal
    That gentleman is Viscount Ven.
[02:41] Ven
    Who's the young lady?
[02:42] Gaut
    An apprentice who has just
    joined us. Is something wrong?
[02:46] Ven
    No. I just feel like I've
    seen her somewhere before.
[02:49] Elise; internal
    This is bad!
[02:51] Elise; internal
    Viscount Ven has been performing my
    medical exams since I was little.
[02:55] Elise; internal
    What do I do if he realizes that I'm Elise?
[02:58] Ven; internal
    That young lady would never
    become an apprentice.
[03:02] Ven
    It's nothing.
[03:04] Ven
    It must just be an uncanny resemblance.
[03:06] Gaut
    I see.
[03:08] Gaut
    This is Viscount Ven.
[03:10] Gaut
    He works at the Imperial Cross Hospital.
    He's the greatest doctor in the empire.
[03:14] Gaut
    Please show him every respect.
[03:17] Graham
    Yes, sir.
[03:19] Ven
    No need to be so formal!
    Please, tell me how it happened.
[03:23] Graham
    You're referring to the splenectomy
    performed the other day, correct?
[03:27] Ven
    Yes! That achievement will be
    etched into medical history!
[03:30] Ven
    I very much want to hear about it!
[03:32] Graham
    Well...
[03:34] Graham
    It isn't me you should be asking. It's her.
[03:39] Ven
    Why her?
[03:41] Graham
    Because she's the one who
    performed the surgery.
[03:46] Gaut
    Graham! This is no time for jokes!
[03:49] Gaut
    I just told you to show
    him respect, didn't I?
[03:52] Ven
    Well, you've put me in a difficult spot.
[03:55] Ven
    Miss, is what Graham said true?
[04:01] Elise
    Yes, I performed the surgery.
[04:05] Gaut
    I'm sorry. It all sounds
    like a fabrication to me.
[04:08] Gaut
    You're still an apprentice, aren't you?
[04:11] Elise
    I've always wholeheartedly
    wanted to become a doctor,
[04:14] Elise
    so books which form the basis of modern
    medicine, such as the works of Grantham,
[04:17] Elise
    provided me a foundation for study.
[04:20] Elise
    As I did so, I was always searching for
    better treatment methods.
[04:26] Elise
    The splenectomy that we
    performed in this instance
[04:29] Elise
    is a surgery I've turned over
    many times in my mind.
[04:33] Elise; internal
    That's not the truth,
[04:35] Elise; internal
    but even if I told them I was a surgeon in
    my previous life, they wouldn't believe me.
[04:39] Gaut
    You're saying you thought it up on your own?
[04:42] Gaut
    I find that completely unbelievable.
[04:44] Ven
    If you truly are the one who performed it,
[04:48] Ven
    then can you explain how you executed
    the surgery to us right now?
[04:53] Elise
    Yes.
[04:54] Elise
    In this case, the patient's spleen
    had been penetrated by a bullet.
[04:58] Elise
    Stopping the bleeding was
    incredibly difficult.
[05:01] Elise
    But by removing the spleen itself and
    tying off the blood vessels further down,
[05:05] Elise
    I believed he might have a chance at survival.
[05:09] Elise
    First, I performed a midline incision.
[05:12] Gaut
    Why a midline incision?
[05:14] Gaut
    The spleen isn't located in the center
    of the body. It's on the left side.
[05:18] Elise
    The spleen is located on the left side,
[05:21] Elise
    but the pancreas is centrally located.
[05:23] Gaut
    The pancreas?
[05:25] Elise
    Yes. The spleen and pancreas are connected.
[05:28] Elise
    Because of this, there was a need to detach
    the spleen from the back of the pancreas.
[05:33] Elise
    Once the pancreas was detached, we
    next cut the surrounding ligaments.
[05:38] Gaut
    You couldn't remove the
    spleen at that point?
[05:42] Elise
    In order to increase the
    probability of success,
[05:44] Elise
    we needed to rotate the
    orientation of the spleen.
[05:48] Elise
    Since the ligaments hold the spleen
    in place, we had to sever them first.
[05:55] Elise
    That concludes my explanation.
[05:57] Ven
    Amazing.
[05:58] Gaut
    Is this even possible?
[06:00] Gaut
    It's only been a month since she came here!
[06:04] Ven
    You said your name is Rose?
[06:06] Elise
    Yes, sir.
[06:07] Ven
    Why don't you leave this place and work
    at Imperial Cross Hospital with me?
[06:13] Gaut
    Are you insane?
[06:14] Ven
    You heard her explanation, didn't you?
[06:17] Ven
    I want to see her abilities in person!
[06:20] Elise; internal
    Imperial Cross Hospital...
[06:23] Elise; internal
    In both reputation and reality, it's the
    empire's greatest medical institution!
[06:26] Elise; internal
    I could work there?
[06:29] Gaut
    Don't speak nonsense!
[06:31] Gaut
    To do that, she'd have to pass the exam first.
[06:35] Gaut
    Have you forgotten?
    This year, the exam will be...
[06:38] Ven
    Oh, that's right.
[06:40] Ven
    His Majesty ordered us to increase the
    difficulty level for the test this year.
[06:44] Gaut
    Abandon the idea for this year.
    Next year will work just as well.
[06:47] Ven
    How can I possibly give up on this?!
[06:49] Ven
    I'm certain that His Majesty wants
    to find talented people like her,
[06:53] Ven
    and that's why he issued that order!
[06:55] Gaut
    Still, this year's exam will be held just
    after His Majesty's birthday celebrations.
[07:01] Gaut
    Even if she starts studying
    now, she'll never pass.
[07:04] Graham
    I also believe that she should
    take the physician's exam.
[07:08] Gaut
    Graham!
[07:12] Graham
    She is...
[07:16] Graham
    Rose is a true genius.
[07:18] Graham
    She possesses abilities greater
    than any doctor I've ever met.
[07:23] Elise
    Doctor Graham.
[07:26] Graham
    I accepted her as my apprentice,
[07:29] Graham
    but her abilities already
    far surpass my own.
[07:34] Gaut
    To think that you would
    speak so highly of anyone...
[07:38] Ven
    To take the physician's exam, she'll need
    recommendations from three professors.
[07:42] Ven
    With me, Professor Graham, and Viscount
    Gaut, that makes three, exactly!
[07:49] Gaut
    Don't just forge ahead in this
    conversation on your own!
[07:51] Gaut
    Do you feel confident that
    you can pass the exam?
[07:55] Elise
    I will do everything in my power to pass.
[07:59] Gaut
    All right.
[08:01] Gaut
    I'll write you a recommendation
    so that you can take the exam.
[08:05] Elise
    Thank you!
[08:07] Ven
    I'm looking forward to
    seeing what happens next!
[08:16] patient
    Oh, Miss Rose!
[08:19] patient
    It's much brighter now. Thank you.
[08:24] Elise; internal
    I'm so glad they provided me with the
    means to take the exam.
[08:27] Elise; internal
    If I hadn't gotten recommendations
    from this hospital,
[08:30] Elise; internal
    I'd have had to think of another way.
[08:33] (Flashback) Gaut
    Still, this year's exam will be held just
    after His Majesty's birthday celebrations.
[08:39] Elise; internal
    His Majesty's birthday celebrations.
[08:43] Elise; internal
    In my first life,
[08:45] Elise; internal
    my engagement to the prince was announced
    at the birthday celebrations.
[08:49] Elise; internal
    Back then, I believed that
    a happy future awaited me.
[08:55] Elise; internal
    But...
[08:57] Elise; internal
    the person I loved never loved me in return.
[09:00] Elise; internal
    Even at the very end, I had
    never once seen him smile.
[09:09] Elise; internal
    This time, the announcement of
    our engagement won't happen...
[09:14] Elise; internal
    because I've chosen to walk a
    different path from His Highness.
[09:36] Elise
    Lord Ron.
[09:41] Ron
    If I remember correctly...
    it's Rose, isn't it?
[09:45] Elise
    Lord Ron, why are you here?
[09:48] Ron
    W-Well...
[09:52] Ron
    It's nothing. I only dropped
    by for a short time.
[09:56] Elise; internal
    Now that I think about it, he...
[10:01] Elise
    Please wait!
[10:04] Elise
    You came here for treatment,
    didn't you? I've been waiting!
[10:11] Ron
    Yes.
[10:12] Elise
    I'll examine you immediately.
    This way, please.
[10:17] Elise
    You look pale.
[10:20] Elise
    Do you find find it difficult to relieve
    your fatigue or ever feel a sense of lethargy?
[10:24] Ron
    Yes.
[10:26] Elise
    When did you first become
    aware of these symptoms?
[10:30] Ron
    It was about two months ago.
[10:32] Elise
    How is your appetite? And has there
    been any change in your weight?
[10:38] Ron
    I feel I have less appetite than before.
[10:41] Elise
    Then, let me ask you about your dizziness.
[10:44] Elise
    Does the ceiling ever spin around, or
    have objects ever appeared out of focus?
[10:49] Ron
    Yes, sometimes.
[10:51] Ron; internal
    What am I doing?
[10:54] Ron; internal
    Even the acclaimed Imperial Cross Hospital
    couldn't determine the cause of my dizziness.
[10:59] Ron; internal
    It's impossible that she would find
    a correct diagnosis, and yet...
[11:04] Elise
    Excuse me just a moment.
[11:07] Ron
    Wh-What are you doing?
[11:09] Elise
    I'm checking your temperature and
    perspiration levels through palpation.
[11:13] Elise
    Is something wrong?
[11:14] Ron
    Um, no.
[11:15] Elise
    Your temperature seems a little low.
[11:20] Elise
    Excuse me just a moment.
[11:24] Ron
    D-Do you really need to touch
     everywhere like this?
[11:28] Elise
    It's necessary in order to achieve
    the most accurate diagnosis.
[11:32] Ron; internal
    Don't tell me she's like this
    with other patients, too.
[11:37] Ron
    H-How long will you continue to touch me?
[11:39] Elise
    There. I'm finished.
[11:41] Elise
    If you'll wait just a moment, I'll explain.
[11:45] Ron
    Should I wait here?
[11:48] Elise
    Yes. Will that be a problem for you?
[11:51] Ron
    It's nothing. I'm a little
    tired, that's all.
[11:55] Elise
    Lord Ron, did you catch
    a cold two months ago?
[11:59] Ron
    Yes, I did.
[12:01] Elise
    At the time, did you feel any
    pain in the area I just touched?
[12:07] Ron
    How do you know that?
[12:09] Elise
    Lord Ron, you have subacute thyroiditis.
[12:13] Ron
    Subacute...
[12:16] Elise
    The thyroid is where thyroid hormone,
[12:20] Elise
    which regulates our bodies'
    fuel, is created.
[12:23] Elise
    That gland is inflamed, and as a result,
    it's producing less thyroid hormone.
[12:29] Ron
    Is it an illness that will require surgery?
[12:33] Elise
    No. If you take your medicine,
     you should recover quite quickly.
[12:39] Ron
    I see.
[12:41] Elise
    I'll write you a prescription.
[12:44] Elise
    Please go to the pharmacy
    to pick up your medicine.
[12:46] Ron
    I will. Is that the end of my treatment?
[12:49] Elise
    No. Please return in three days.
[12:53] Elise
    I'll check the progress of your symptoms
    and adjust your dosage.
[12:57] Elise
    I'd like for you to come back over
    the course of the next two months.
[13:00] Ron
    Two months?
[13:02] Elise
    If it will be difficult for you to come here,
[13:04] Elise
    you can receive treatment at
    Imperial Cross Hospital instead.
[13:09] Elise
    In that case, we'd send them our report.
[13:11] Ron
    No, it's fine. I'll come back here.
[13:31] Elise
    And how have you felt since then?
[13:34] Ron
    It's shocking how much better I feel.
[13:36] Ron
    It's all thanks to you.
[13:39] Elise
    I'm glad to help.
[13:40] Ron
    Now, what treatment do
    you have for me today?
[13:44] Ron
    Will you start with palpation again?
[13:46] Elise
    After this visit, you won't
    have to come back anymore.
[13:49] Ron
    Wh-What?
[13:51] Elise
    Your progress is excellent.
[13:54] Elise
    You just need to continue
    taking your medicine.
[13:57] Ron
    So, this is the end of my treatment?
[14:01] Elise
    Yes. Please take care on your way home.
[14:27] Elise
    Whew...
[14:31] Elise
    Lord Ron? Why are you here?
[14:34] Elise
    Your treatment has concluded.
[14:37] Ron
    It's just, well...
[14:39] Ron
    I was taking a stroll.
[14:41] Elise
    Oh, I see.
[14:43] Ron; internal
    I can't tell her that I came because
    I wanted to see her face.
[14:47] Ron
    I'll just carry this, then.
[14:49] Elise
    What? I can't ask you to do that!
[14:52] Ron
    I don't mind. Let's go.
[14:57] Elise
    Um, I'm all right now.
[15:00] Ron
    No, I'll help.
[15:02] Elise
    You say you'll help, but...
[15:04] Elise
    Pardon my rudeness, Lord Ron, but
    do you have experience cleaning?
[15:08] Ron
    None at all.
[15:10] Elise
    Then, I'll teach you.
[15:13] Elise
    A mop is used like this. This
    is how we clean the floors.
[15:17] Ron
    Like this?
[15:21] Elise
    Please put a little more strength into it!
[15:24] Elise
    Like this!
[15:25] Ron
    L-Like this.
[15:27] Elise
    That's right!
[15:28] Elise
    In a medical environment, cleanliness
    is the most important thing!
[15:31] Ron
    I-I see.
[15:42] Ron
    There's more depth to
    cleaning than I imagined.
[15:46] Elise
    You've done very good work here.
[15:47] Ron
    Thanks.
[15:48] Elise
    You've helped me in so many
    ways today. Thank you.
[15:52] Ron
    Nothing to deserve thanks.
[15:54] Elise
    Lord Ron, you're a kind person.
[15:59] Ron; internal
    Lord Ron, is it?
[16:01] Ron; internal
    So, when she's happy, this
    is how she smiles...
[16:11] Ren
    Your Highness.
[16:13] Linden
    What is it?
[16:14] Ren
    Where have you been going lately, leaving
    a mountain of accumulated work behind?
[16:20] Linden
    Ah, well...
[16:24] Ren
    If you're troubled by
    something, please tell me.
[16:27] Linden
    What does your sibling like?
[16:30] Ren
    Do you mean Chris?
[16:32] Linden
    I mean Lady Elise.
[16:34] Ren
    My little sister? Has she been a nuisance again?
[16:36] Linden
    That's not it.
[16:38] Linden
    I have need to express my thanks to her.
[16:41] Linden
    But it doesn't bear any particular
    emotional weight. Don't let it bother you
[16:45] Ren
    I'm not particularly troubled by it.
[16:49] Linden
    I'm glad to hear it.
[16:51] Linden
    In any case, I'd like to
    know her preferences.
[16:54] Ren
    Well, Lise enjoys eating.
[16:58] Linden
    What?
[17:00] Ren
    In particular, she can't
    resist a strawberry cake.
[17:05] Linden
    Anything else?
[17:06] Ren
    Mango pudding and banana tarts.
[17:09] Ren
    Oh, but she hates milk, so...
[17:12] Linden
    That's not what I'm asking!
[17:16] Linden
    Something more...
[17:18] Linden
    A gift worthy of giving to a lady.
[17:22] Ren
    A gift... for a lady?
[17:27] Linden; internal
    That's right.
[17:28] Linden; internal
    Ren's devoted to his work,
    and he's a very earnest man.
[17:32] Linden; internal
    Consulting him about something of
    this nature was never going to work.
[17:36] Linden; internal
    Someone well-versed in
    this subject would be...
[17:40] Linden; internal
    Right. Mikhail would know
    far more than I do.
[17:45] Linden; internal
    No. That would be ridiculous of me.
[17:48] Ren
    Your Highness.
[17:51] Linden
    Have you thought of something?
[17:53] Ren
    Would jewels suit?
[17:55] Linden
    What?
[17:56] Ren
    When I think about it, Elise has
    always liked dazzling, gaudy things.
[18:03] Linden; internal
    Yes. I've heard rumors about
    her that say the same.
[18:10] Linden; internal
    And yet, I'm not sure why, but...
[18:12] Linden; internal
    I can't imagine that receiving jewels
    would make her smile that way.
[18:18] Linden; internal
    Though, if Ren says so,
    I suppose I could try it.
[18:23] Elise
    No, thank you.
[18:27] Ron
    This is to express my
    gratitude for saving Randall.
[18:33] Ron
    There's no special meaning attached.
    Please don't let it trouble you.
[18:36] Elise
    I'm not particularly troubled by it.
[18:39] Ron
    Then, why?
[18:40] Elise
    I only did what a doctor should.
[18:43] Elise
    I can't accept something like this for it.
[18:47] Ron
    I see. My apologies.
[18:50] Elise
    No, I'm the one who's sorry.
[18:52] Elise
    You went to so much trouble for this...
[18:54] Elise
    I do gratefully accept the
    thought behind the gift.
[18:57] Ron
    It's all right. I thought
    you might say that.
[19:01] Ron
    But I won't be able to rest easy until
    I've repaid the debt I owe you.
[19:05] Elise
    I've received the fee for the treatment.
[19:07] Elise
    I feel that's more than enough.
[19:10] Ron
    Do you mean that negligible fee?
[19:13] Ron
    Isn't there anything else you want?
[19:17] Elise
    In that case, let's see...
[19:20] Elise
    Will you treat me to a
    strawberry cake one day?
[19:23] Ron
    What?
[19:24] Elise
    I absolutely adore strawberry cake!
[19:27] Elise
    But my family says I'll eat too much of it,
    so they won't let me have it very often.
[19:32] Ron
    What about mango pudding?
[19:34] Elise
    Yes! I adore that, too!
[19:37] Ron
    You love banana tarts, too,
    don't you? And you hate milk.
[19:41] Elise
    What? how do you know that?
[19:46] Ron
    From now on, I'll let you
    eat as much as you like.
[19:54] Ron
    I'll visit again.
[20:06] Minchester
    I'm sorry to call you here so suddenly.
[20:09] Minchester
    I actually wanted to ask you
    about the girl called Rose.
[20:14] Minchester
    I heard that she's working at
    your hospital as an apprentice.
[20:18] Gaut
    Yes, sire. I have worked as
    a doctor for many years,
[20:21] Gaut
    and she is, without a doubt, a genius.
[20:24] Gaut
    It's almost as if she were
    born to become a doctor.
[20:29] Minchester
    I see.
[20:31] Gaut
    Is there something about Rose I should know?
[20:33] Vent
    You need only answer
    the questions you're asked.
[20:37] Gaut
    Yes, sir!
[20:39] Minchester
    Are the preparations for the physician
    qualification exam underway?
[20:44] Gaut
    As Your Majesty ordered, the questions which
    will appear have been carefully selected.
[20:49] Minchester
    As a doctor holds others' lives in their hands,
[20:53] Minchester
    we must be sure that those who are
    unqualified do not pass the exam.
[20:57] Minchester
    That is all I have to say.
[20:58] Gaut
    Yes, sire. I will take my leave.
[21:04] Minchester
    You think of some entertaining
    things, Sir Vent.
[21:08] Vent
    Sire, you praise me too highly.
[21:11] Minchester
    When I first heard, I was surprised.
[21:14] Minchester
    Let's raise the difficulty level
    of the physician's exam, indeed.
[21:18] Vent
    Our empire needs her acumen and lineage.
[21:23] Vent
    She must become the next empress,
    no matter what it takes.
[21:26] Minchester
    Well, if she truly is a born doctor,
[21:31] Minchester
    then it's best she face
    an ordeal of this level.
[21:34] Vent
    Your Majesty, there is actually one
    more idea I would like to propose.
[21:40] Minchester
    What is it?
[21:42] Vent
    That at your birthday celebrations,
    you announce the lady's engagement.
[21:48] Minchester
    But what of my wager with her?
[21:52] Minchester
    Are you saying that I should
    rescind a promise I've made?
[22:01] Vent
    I have an idea about that.
