[00:01] Minchester
    This country has many outstanding
    doctors, doesn't it?
[00:05] Mincherter
    You are the only one who
    can become its empress.
[00:09] Minchester
    And you can understand which of the two is
    more important to the country, can't you?
[00:16] Minchester
    It isn't as if you have grown
    to hate my son, is it?
[00:20] Minchester
    I heard that earlier you performed a
    dance together in perfect harmony.
[00:26] Minchester
    What do you think? Won't you reconsider?
[00:31] Elise; internal
    I understand what His Majesty is saying.
[00:35] Elise; internal
    Even so, I still...
[00:39] Elise
    I have no intention of
    ending the wager here!
[00:51] Elise
    Please, come in!
[00:53] Chris
    I knew it. You're still awake.
[00:55] Elise
    Yes. I wanted to prepare for the exam.
[00:59] Chris
    Lise, you're pushing yourself
    a little too hard.
[01:01] Chris
    The birthday celebrations continue tomorrow.
[01:03] Chris
    You have an early morning,
    so you need to go to sleep.
[01:06] Elise
    What? But I'm still in the
    middle of my studies.
[01:09] Chris
    Do that later.
[01:12] Chris
    Come on. Go to sleep!
[01:14] Elise; internal
    Doesn't look like I'll
    get anymore done today.
[02:56] nobleman 1
    Lady Clorence!
[02:59] nobleman 1
    My congratulations on this occasion.
[03:01] Elise
    Thank you.
[03:03] noblewoman 2
    My, what a lovely person you are.
[03:05] nobleman 3
    I was certain that His
    Majesty would choose you.
[03:08] Elise
    Oh, um...
[03:12] Elise; internal
    After hearing His Majesty's
    announcement yesterday,
[03:14] Elise; internal
    it's only natural that they'd think
    I was the prince's fiancée.
[03:18] Elise; internal
    Oh, that's right! Juliane...
[03:25] Elise
    E-Excuse me, do you know if the young
    lady from the House of Child is here?
[03:30] noblewoman 2
    No, I haven't seen her.
[03:33] Elise
    I see.
[03:35] Elise; internal
    Juliane is in love with the prince, so the
    announcement must have come as a shock.
[03:41] Elise; internal
    And just when we'd become friends...
[03:44] Elise; internal
    I'd like to see her and
    explain things properly.
[03:48] waiter
    Help! Someone call for a doctor!
[03:51] waiter
    Duchess Harbour has collapsed!
[03:53] Elise
    Duchess Harbour!
[03:57] Elise
    Excuse me!
[03:59] Elise
    Please pardon me.
[04:00] nobleman 5
    Lady Clorence?
[04:05] Elise; internal
    Difficulty swallowing is often
    seen in Parkinson's cases.
[04:08] Elise; internal
    It's likely that some food from the party
    is lodged in her respiratory tract.
[04:12] Elise
    Your Grace, wake up! Duchess Harbour!
[04:16] Elise; internal
    She's unconscious.
[04:17] Elise; internal
    And she's exhibiting cyanosis!
[04:26] Elise; internal
    The Heimlich maneuver isn't working.
[04:29] Elise; internal
    That means there's only one method left.
[04:32] Elise; internal
    I'm glad that I carry an alcohol-based
    antiseptic with me to prevent infection.
[04:40] nobleman 5
    Wh-What are you doing?!
[04:42] Elise
    If you care for the duchess's well-being,
    then please don't interfere!
[04:49] Elise
    I promise I can save her!
[04:57] Elise; internal
    I'll make an incision in her
    neck to secure her airway.
[05:00] Elise; internal
    I need to complete this within
    thirty seconds.
[05:08] Elise; internal
    Good. I can just barely see
    some food lodged in there.
[05:12] Elise; internal
    Now, I'll use this tube to...
[05:21] Elise
    She's all right. I'm so glad!
[05:29] Elise; internal
    There isn't any precedent of performing
    a tracheotomy in this world,
[05:34] Elise; internal
    so this is likely to
    become a serious matter.
[05:36] guard A
    Lady Clorence.
[05:40] guard
    If you will come with us.
[05:42] Elise
    I understand. But first, may I
    ask that a message be delivered?
[05:48] guard A
    A message?
[05:49] Elise
    Yes. As the situation was urgent,
[05:51] Elise
    I didn't move her to an operating room
    before performing this treatment.
[05:55] Elise
    The disinfection wasn't performed
    under ideal circumstances,
[05:59] Elise
    so there is a risk of infection.
[06:02] Elise
    Please tell the staff at Imperial Cross
    Hospital to disinfect the region again.
[06:08] guard A
    O-Of course.
[06:10] Elise
    I'm entrusting this to you.
[06:24] Vent
    It seems that Duchess Harbour
    has been saved from death.
[06:27] Minchster
    I see. We must give our
    gratitude to Lady Clorence.
[06:33] Vent
    As Your Majesty commanded, the young lady
    has been entrusted to the Hundreds House.
[06:38] Minchester
    Yes, well, we can't put the
    lady in a jail cell, can we?
[06:43] Vent
    Your Majesty, I believe this situation
    is likely to prove tricky.
[06:48] Minchester
    By which you mean?
[06:50] Vent
    This incident will greatly increase
    her reputation as a doctor.
[06:56] Minchester
    Indeed.
[06:57] Minchester
    She did, after all, save the duchess,
    who is a part of the imperial family.
[07:01] Minchester
    We may even award her a medal for it.
[07:04] Vent
    If that happens, then her
    desire to become a doctor
[07:08] Vent
    is likely to be supported by public opinion.
[07:10] Minchester
    Yes, that's true.
[07:15] Vent
    And so, I have a suggestion.
[07:17] Vent
    What do you think of keeping the lady
    quietly confined to the Hundreds House
[07:23] Vent
    until the physician's exam is over?
[07:26] Minchester
    We can't do that.
[07:29] Minchester
    We couldn't keep her confined
    for that length of time.
[07:33] Vent
    It's likely that the lady's
    treatment wasn't perfect.
[07:37] Vent
    If we investigate thoroughly, we should
    be able to find some small mistake.
[07:43] Minchester
    If I remember correctly, she performed the
    procedure with a knife meant for eating.
[07:48] Minchester
    Very well.
[07:49] Minchester
    Sir Vent, gather all of the
    finest doctors in the empire.
[07:54] Minchester
    Begin the investigation immediately.
[07:57] Vent
    Sire!
[08:03] Chris
    Lise, why did you do
    something so dangerous?!
[08:06] Chris
    Father and I have been so worried!
[08:10] Elise
    I'm sorry, Chris.
[08:13] Chris
    Are you truly repentant?
[08:15] Chris
    How could you suddenly cut the
    duchess's neck with a knife?
[08:19] Chris
    His Majesty's personal intervention means
[08:22] Chris
    you've only been confined
    to the Hundreds House,
[08:24] Chris
    but you'd have typically been
    thrown right into prison!
[08:29] Elise
    I'm sorry.
[08:32] Chris
    As long as you understand.
[08:33] Chris
    Now, Lise, if something similar were
    to happen again, what would you do?
[08:37] Chris
    Could you behave yourself as you should?
[08:40] Elise
    If there's a patient in front
    of me, I will save them!
[08:43] Chris
    It seems you need more scolding, then.
[08:47] Ren
    Elise.
[08:49] Ren
    Chris and I understand that you acted as
    you did in order to save the duchess.
[08:56] Elise; internal
    Ren... He isn't angry?
[09:00] Ren
    And it isn't just me.
[09:02] Ren
    Anyone would praise your giving of
    medical treatment as an act of bravery.
[09:09] Chris
    But that and this are two different issues!
[09:12] Chris
    Saving the duchess is admirable!
[09:15] Chris
    But it isn't a good reason for
    you to endanger yourself, Lise!
[09:19] Elise
    Y-Yes.
[09:21] Chris; background
    Are you really sorry? Lise, you
    always act too impulsively!
[09:22] Elise; internal
    Ren praised me, and
    Chris is yelling at me...
[09:27] Elise; internal
    This is the opposite of how
    things usually turn out.
[09:27] Chris; background
    You need to think about...
[09:38] Elise; internal
    I need to reread Grantham's essays.
[09:41] Elise; internal
    And I should read Fleming's
    medical text, too.
[09:47] Elise
    The observable symptoms of acute
    intestinal ischemia are...
[10:03] Mikhail
    My dear sister, there's something I'd
    like to speak with you about.
[10:08] Elise
    What is it?
[10:11] Mikhail
    It's nothing. Take care of yourself.
[10:20] Elise
    No.
[10:21] Elise
    Wait, Mil!
[10:23] Elise
    Mil!
[10:26] Elise
    No...
[10:28] Elise
    Please... You can't die.
[10:35] Linden
    I heard she'd been taken into custody,
    so I came to see how she was faring...
[10:38] Linden
    What sort of dream could she be having?
[10:44] Linden; internal
    Don't cry.
[10:46] Linden; internal
    When I see you suffering...
[10:49] Linden; internal
    I don't know why, but something
    in my chest tightens.
[10:57] Linden; internal
    It's painful enough to make me break my vow
[11:01] Linden; internal
    never to return to this tower of blood.
[11:11] Linden
    Elise, I hope you will
    dream of pleasant things.
[11:23] Mikhail
    Well, I never imagined that older
    brother of mine would...
[11:34] Mikhail; internal
    Elise. The fiancée my brother
    has expressed an interest in.
[11:40] Mikhail; internal
    Maybe I'll go and tease her a little.
[11:47] Mikhail
    My dear sister, what are you reading?
[11:51] Mikhail
    Whoops!
[11:54] Mikhail
    Apologies. This is the first time
    we've spoken like this, isn't it?
[11:59] Mikhail
    I'm Linden de Romanoff's little
    brother, the third prince, Mikhail.
[12:03] Mikhail
    It's an honor to meet you, dear sister.
[12:06] Mikhail
    Or, perhaps you'd rather not have met my
    brother's political opponent face-to-face?
[12:11] Mikhail; internal
    Now, what will you do? Will you
    be dumbfounded with shock?
[12:15] Mikhail; internal
    Or, will you hide your true
    feelings and force a smile?
[12:18] Elise
    Mil...
[12:19] Mikhail
    Huh?
[12:21] Elise
    Mil... Mil, is that really you?
[12:25] Mikhail; internal
    Mil? How does she know that nickname?
[12:29] Elise
    Oh, um...
[12:31] Elise
    I-I'm terribly sorry, Your Highness.
[12:34] Elise
    Please, don't mind me.
[12:37] Elise
    Allow me to introduce myself.
[12:40] Elise
    I am Elise, from the Clorence family.
[12:43] Mikhail
    Nice to meet you, Elise.
[12:48] Mikhail; internal
    I don't understand it.
[12:50] Mikhail; internal
    When this girl looks at me, I see
    a kind of sorrow in her eyes.
[12:55] Mikhail
    I only came to offer you my
    greetings today, so I'll go now.
[13:00] Elise
    Of course, Your Highness.
[13:01] Mikhail
    I'll come again. After all, I've been
    locked in this tower with nothing to do.
[13:06] Elise
    Locked in?
[13:08] Elise
    Did you do something?
[13:10] Mikhail
    They'd prepared beverages for His
    Majesty's birthday celebrations.
[13:14] Mikhail
    I borrowed just a tiny bit and got caught.
[13:17] Mikhail
    I got tossed in here and told
    to reflect on my actions.
[13:20] Elise
    Your Highness, you don't
    seem repentant at all.
[13:23] Mikhail
    You don't think so?
[13:25] Mikhail
    Well, I'll see you later, dear sister.
[13:33] Minchester
    Now, let's hear the results
    of the investigation.
[13:37] Ven; Graham
    Sire.
[13:39] Ven
    To start with our conclusion, it was
    truly an impeccable medical treatment.
[13:44] Minchester
    Wh-What?
[13:46] Vent
    She stabbed the duchess's
    throat with a knife!
[13:48] Vent
    You call that impeccable?
[13:50] Ven
    Yes, indeed!
[13:52] Ven
    The treatment performed in this case is very
    dangerous, so no one has been able to test it!
[13:59] Ven
    But the lady used her transcendent skills
    and anatomical knowledge to succeed perfectly!
[14:06] Minchester
    It wasn't simply by chance?
[14:09] Ven
    That's right.
[14:10] Ven
    In her written statement, she provided
    the details of the treatment.
[14:14] Ven
    And it's absolutely magnificent!
[14:17] Ven
    The positioning and method of the incision
    was optimal and described very precisely.
[14:23] Ven
    To advance medical science, I believe her
    statement should be published as a treatise!
[14:29] Minchester
    I see. And what do you think,
    Doctor Graham de Fallon?
[14:35] Graham
    Sire, by your leave, I will give my opinion.
[14:38] Graham
    I would say that the empire's medical community
[14:41] Graham
    has gained another extraordinary genius.
[14:45] Minchester
    You'd go that far?
[14:47] Graham
    Yes, sire.
[14:49] Graham
    The lady's treatment was absolutely perfect.
[14:52] Graham
    I would stake my reputation
    as a doctor on it.
[14:55] Minchester
    Very well. Thank you for your report.
[14:58] Minchester
    Sir Vent, tell the Hundreds House to
    release the lady immediately.
[15:05] Vent
    Are you certain, Your Majesty?
[15:07] Minchester
    Yes.
[15:09] Ven
    Incidentally, Your Highness,
    I have a favor to ask of you.
[15:13] Minchester
    What is it? Tell me.
[15:15] Ven
    Will you allow me to meet Lady Clorence?
[15:19] Ven
    I would like to discuss this
    most recent case with the lady!
[15:24] Minchester
    Well, you may do as you like.
[15:28] Ven
    Thank you so much!
[15:36] Elise
    Come in!
[15:38] Mikhail
    Good morning, dear sister!
[15:40] Elise
    Your Highness! You shouldn't walk around
    so much while you're being disciplined.
[15:44] Mikhail
    What? But I'm bored.
    Spend some time with me.
[15:48] Elise
    Honestly, you are hopeless.
[15:50] Mikhail
    You're reading again today?
[15:53] Mikhail
    I'm amazed you can read
    such a complicated book.
[15:56] Elise
    I have to pass the exam and become a doctor.
[16:00] Mikhail
    That means you wouldn't marry
    my brother, doesn't it?
[16:05] Elise
    I do intend not to.
[16:08] Elise
    Which is why, Your Highness, instead of
    calling me your sister, please call me Elise...
[16:13] Elise
    or you could even call me Lise.
[16:15] Mikhail
    All right, Lise.
[16:18] Mikhail
    So, when will you be finished studying?
[16:21] Elise
    I won't be finished today.
[16:24] Mikhail
    Lise, you're so serious.
[16:26] Mikhail
    Why don't you find a random stopping
    point and have a drink with me today?
[16:30] Elise
    Oh, I couldn't.
[16:32] Mikhail
    Just a little break couldn't hurt!
[16:34] Mikhail
    I had some special sweets brought
    in from the Republic of Fresgard!
[16:39] Elise
    Sweets?
[16:42] Mikhail
    Oh, it's such a shame!
[16:45] Mikhail
    The sweets from Fresgard are exquisite!
[16:48] Mikhail
    But if you say you don't want them, Lise,
    then I suppose there's no helping it.
[16:55] Elise
    Just for a little while, then.
[16:57] Mikhail
    That's more like it!
[17:04] Mikhail
    Now, drink up! Drink up!
[17:07] Mikhail
    This is the prized cordial of
    my father's that I borrowed.
[17:12] Mikhail
    There's no alcohol in it, so
    there's no need to worry.
[17:15] Elise
    It isn't good to steal
    things, Your Highness.
[17:18] Elise
    If you keep doing things like this, you'll
    never be able to leave this place.
[17:22] Mikhail
    If that means living here with you,
    Lise, then that wouldn't be so bad.
[17:26] Elise
    I already know that you say those things
     to every girl you speak with, Your Highness.
[17:33] Mikhail
    Whatever do you mean?
[17:35] Mikhail
    Now, shall we have a toast?
[17:38] Mikhail
    To my father's frustrated face at not
    having the chance to drink this!
[17:41] Mikhail
    Cheers!
[17:44] Elise; internal
    This brings back memories.
[17:46] Elise; internal
    We used to toast like this
    all the time, didn't we?
[17:50] (Flashback) Elise
    Wait, Mil! Mil!
[17:54] Elise; internal
    Before, I wasn't able
    to prevent Mil's death.
[18:00] Elise; internal
    Their Highnesses Mil and Linden.
[18:02] Elise; internal
    They're both princes, but
    only one can become emperor.
[18:06] Elise; internal
    If Mil would give up on the throne,
    he might be able to be saved,
[18:10] Elise; internal
    but that won't ever happen, will it?
[18:13] Mikhail
    Lise? Are you all right?
[18:15] Elise
    Oh! I'm sorry.
[18:18] Mikhail
    Lise, you always make that
    expression when you look at me.
[18:23] Mikhail
    It's like you've already experienced
    life many times before.
[18:27] Elise
    What?
[18:31] Mikhail
    There's no need to be so shocked,
    is there? I'm just joking!
[18:37] Elise; internal
    Th-That's Mil for you.
[18:40] Elise; internal
    His instincts are very sharp.
[18:42] Mikhail
    Still, you really have changed, Lise.
[18:46] Mikhail
    To think you'd cast aside the position
    of empress to become a doctor...
[18:50] Mikhail
    Do you hate my brother that much?
[18:52] Elise
    No, that's not it at all.
[18:55] Mikhail
    Then, why?
[18:58] Elise
    Your Highness, you're a master
    of the sword, aren't you?
[19:02] Elise
    You've even traveled to other
    countries to train as a warrior.
[19:06] Mikhail
    Yes, that's true.
[19:08] Mikhail
    I shouldn't say it about myself,
[19:10] Mikhail
    but I don't think anyone can
    beat me at swordsmanship.
[19:13] Elise
    Why did you choose to hone your sword work?
[19:17] Elise
    As a member of the imperial family,
    you shouldn't need sword skills.
[19:21] Mikhail
    Well...
[19:23] Mikhail
    I suppose it's because I love the sword.
[19:25] Elise
    I'm the same.
[19:29] Elise; internal
    At the beginning, I chose the work in order
    to atone for the mistakes of my first life.
[19:35] Elise; internal
    But now...
[19:39] Elise
    I want to spend my life carrying
    out the work of a doctor.
[19:45] Mikhail
    My father intends for you
    to marry my brother.
[19:50] Mikhail
    Once that happens, you won't
    be able to become a doctor.
[19:54] Elise
    If that happens...
[19:56] Elise
    If that happens, then I think I'll simply
    sing an unending song of lament.
[20:02] Elise
    Like a bird who's had its wings
    clipped and been locked in a cage.
[20:08] Elise; internal
    That's why I must win my
    wager with His Majesty.
[20:30] Mikhail
    A bird in a cage, is it?
[20:35] Mikhail
    If I were my brother, I'd treat
    Lise with so much more care.
[20:55] Mikhail
    I wanted to stay trapped here a little
    longer, but I have to leave tomorrow.
[21:02] Mikhail
    I'll see you again, my lady.
[21:09] Ven
    Oh, I can't wait!
[21:11] Ven
    Who'd have imagined that Lady Elise was
    hiding such outstanding abilities!
[21:16] Ven
    I'm so looking forward to seeing her!
     Aren't you, Professor Graham?
[21:19] Graham
    Yes.
[21:21] Graham; internal
    If Lady Clorence truly did
    perform that treatment,
[21:27] Graham; internal
    then she may posses abilities
    equal to Rose's.
[21:35] Elise
    I must have fallen asleep.
[21:38] Elise
    I wonder if Mil carried me to bed.
[21:43] guard
    My lady, there are visitors here to see you.
[21:48] Elise
    Is it my brothers?
[21:50] Elise
    Please, come in!
[21:55] Graham
    Why?
[21:57] Graham
    What are you doing here, Rose?
[22:01] Elise
    D-Doctor Graham?
