[00:04] Kaoru
    And... send.
[00:06] Kaoru
    Finally done!
SIGN    Kyoko
[00:07] Kaoru
    Oh, it's Kyoko.
[00:09] Kaoru
    Wonder if she's mad. Hello?
[00:11] Kyoko
    You're late, Kaoru!
[00:13] Kyoko
    Better get here soon or
    we'll start without you!
[00:16] Kaoru
    Sorry, it's my first time...
[00:17] Reiko
    Are you done with work?
[00:19] Kaoru
    Yeah, I'm just leaving.
[00:21] Kaoru
    My boss dumped a task on
    me that was kind of a pain.
[00:24] Kyoko
    Well, you always were
    unnecessarily good at your job.
[00:27] Kaoru
    "Unnecessarily"? Hey!
[00:29] Reiko
    You okay? You're not too tired?
[00:31] Kaoru
    Thanks, Reiko! An energy drink
    will get me back on my feet!
[00:35] Kaoru
    Anyway, be right there. See you soon.
[00:37] Reiko
    Bye.
[00:38] Kyoko
    See ya!
[00:39] Kaoru
    All right! We're drinking tonight!
[00:43] Kaoru
    After graduating from my
    university's science department,
[00:45] Kaoru
    I got a job with a local business.
[00:47] Kaoru
    My parents were thrilled that
    I could commute from home,
[00:50] Kaoru
    and it gave me a chance to save up money.
[00:52] Kaoru
    The life of Kaoru Nagase
    isn't exciting, but it's stable.
[00:56] Kaoru
    Now...
[00:58] Kaoru
    If only my eyes looked a little less scary...
[01:01] Kaoru
    Uh-oh... No, I can't pass out!
[01:04] Kaoru
    Crouch down slowly... and...
[01:08] Administrator
    I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!
[01:11] Administrator
    We haven't made this mistake
    in thousands of years!
[01:14] Kaoru
    No, really, it's okay.
[01:16] Kaoru
    I mean, it's not... but it seems
    like it was out of your control.
[01:20] Administrator
    I truly appreciate that.
[01:22] Kaoru
    Huh... That's a higher being on a completely
    different plane than humanity for you.
[01:27] Kaoru
    He looks just like a god, but...
[01:30] Kaoru
    So, um... Let me make sure
    I have this straight.
[01:33] Kaoru
    A world in another dimension that
    normally has nothing to do with mine
[01:36] Kaoru
    started to interfere with this world due
    to an incidental shift in space-time?
[01:42] Administrator
    Yes. We refer to such
    phenomena as "distortions."
[01:47] Administrator
    If a distortion is not addressed,
     in the worst case,
[01:49] Administrator
    worlds in neighboring dimensions can
    be affected, resulting in a disaster.
[01:53] Administrator
    We conduct maintenance and supervision
    on space-time to prevent this.
[01:58] Administrator
    But this time...
[02:01] Kaoru
    I just happened to be there at that moment.
[02:04] Administrator
    Yes.
[02:06] Administrator
    I just barely managed to preserve
    your consciousness and soul,
[02:09] Administrator
    but back in your world, your body
    is currently being pronounced dead.
[02:14] Administrator
    If we interfere with fate
    to return you to this world,
[02:18] Administrator
    it could trigger an even greater distortion.
[02:22] Kaoru
    So in other words, there's no
    place left for me in this world?
[02:26] Administrator
    Unfortunately, yes.
[02:28] Administrator
    So the least I can do is offer
    an alternative solution...
[02:33] Koichi
    What?! Reincarnated in another world?!
[02:36] Koichi
    What is this, a light novel?!
[02:37] Kaoru
    I know, right?
[02:38] Kaoru
    But he said I can be reincarnated as I am
    into a different world that's unregulated.
[02:43] Dad
    As you are? Don't be ridiculous!
[02:45] Mom
    That's right! This was God's mistake, right?
[02:47] Mom
    You need to get a guarantee!
[02:49] Yuki
    Yeah! You can claim damages, can't you?
[02:53] Kaoru
    Yeah. That's why I asked to appear
[02:56] Kaoru
    before my family and friends in
    a dream so I could say goodbye.
[03:00] Kaoru
    Wait, I know this is a dream, but you
    guys seemed to move on pretty quick!
[03:05] Kaoru
    Your oldest kid was torn in
    half in a mysterious accident!
[03:09] Kaoru
    Shouldn't you be, you know, sadder?
[03:11] Koichi
    We know you'll be just fine, though.
[03:14] Yuki
    You've got good sense,
    and your specs aren't bad, either.
[03:17] Dad
    No matter which world you're in,
     we know you'll get by.
[03:21] Mom
    You're an eldest daughter the
    Nagase family can be proud of.
[03:24] Koichi
    As long as you're doing okay in
    that other world, we're happy.
[03:28] Kaoru
    Honestly, what a family I have.
[03:32] Kaoru
    Looks like time's up. Thanks, guys. Goodbye.
[03:36] Dad
    Kaoru, take care.
[03:38] Mom
    Find your happiness.
[03:40] Koichi
    Keep your status secret,
    and take precautions!
[03:42] Yuki
    Find yourself a good man!
[03:45] Kaoru
    Gotta go see Kyoko and Reiko next.
[03:50] Administrator
    Have you finished saying your goodbyes?
[03:52] Kaoru
    Yes.
[03:53] Reiko
    She doesn't have much time, you know.
[03:55] Kaoru
    Kyoko bawled all over me, though.
[03:59] Administrator
    Then I will now send you to your new world.
[04:01] Administrator
    Its civilization isn't
    as advanced as Earth's,
[04:02] Administrator
    but otherwise, it's quite similar.
[04:05] Administrator
    The rest will be—
[04:06] Kaoru
    Wait just a minute!
[04:08] Kaoru
    If it's less advanced, that means
    there'll be more injuries, illnesses,
[04:12] Kaoru
    crime, war, and all kinds
    of other dangers, right?
[04:16] Administrator
    W-Well, yes...
[04:17] Kaoru
    And you want to send a woman
    to a world like that all alone?
[04:21] Kaoru
    There's no way I'll be able to survive!
[04:24] Kaoru
    I could die the very day I get there!
[04:27] Administrator
    R-Right...
[04:28] Kaoru
    So as a perk of reincarnation...
[04:32] Kaoru
    I demand an overpowered skill!
SIGN    Perks of Reincarnation, Please!
[04:39] Celes
    Welcome to Verny!
[04:41] Kaoru
    Huh?
[04:42] Celes
    I'm Celestine, the administrator of this world.
[04:45] Celes
    But please just call me "Celes," okay?
[04:48] Kaoru
    Um, I'm sure I'll be needing
    your guidance for—
[04:50] Celes
    Yes, yes, yes! I've heard
    all about your story!
[04:53] Celes
    And I'm deeply grateful to you!
[04:56] Kaoru
    You are?
[04:57] Celes
    Yes! Because you agreed to
    be reincarnated in Verny,
[05:02] Celes
    I get to work with him!
[05:04] Kaoru
    "Him"? You mean the god of Earth?
[05:07] Celes
    Just getting to see him is precious enough!
[05:10] Celes
    But actually getting to talk to him...
[05:12] Celes
    What good fortune! How blessed I am!
[05:18] Celes
    And because of that, I'm going
    to give you some freebies!
[05:22] Kaoru
    Wait, is this god's head
    in the clouds or something?
[05:25] Kaoru
    I mean, it's great that
    she's helping me, but...
[05:28] Celes
    Yes, he's told me everything.
[05:31] Celes
    For starters, you want the ability
    to read, write, and speak,
[05:34] Celes
    and a younger body, but with the
    same genes you're always had, right?
[05:38] Kaoru
    Make me the youngest age that's
    considered adult in this world.
[05:41] Celes
    You got it!
[05:42] Kaoru
    All is going to plan so far.
[05:45] Celes
    He also said that you requested an amazing
    skill necessary for surviving in this world.
[05:54] Kaoru
    Yes.
[05:55] Kaoru
    By the way, does this world
    have magic and monsters,
[05:58] Kaoru
    and jobs that involve hunting them and stuff?
[06:01] Kaoru
    This is a very important question.
[06:03] Kaoru
    The answer will determine what overpowered—
SIGN    Why do you look scared?
    Is it my eyes?
    It's my eyes, isn't it?!
SIGN    I'm used to
    this reaction, though...
[06:07] Celes
    Y-Yes, it has everything you just named.
[06:10] Celes
    Magic, monsters, hunters—all of it.
[06:13] Kaoru
    Score!

[06:20] Kaoru
    So what OP ability is essential
    for staying alive in such a world?
[06:24] Kaoru
    A defensive attack?
[06:26] Kaoru
    No!
[06:27] Kaoru
    Those only ever end up being used by
    powerful people for their own benefit!
[06:31] Kaoru
    I gave this a lot of thought and
    considered all possible conditions.
[06:34] Kaoru
    The ultimate ability that will allow me
    to live out my life safe and worry-free...
[06:39] Kaoru
    is...
[06:40] Kaoru
    the ability to freely create potions
    with whatever effects I want!
[06:46] Celes
    Huh?
[06:49] Kaoru
    The major causes of death in this
    world are injury and illness, right?
[06:53] Kaoru
    I'd feel bad if I died immediately
[06:56] Kaoru
    after you so kindly let me reincarnate here.
[07:00] Kaoru
    It would do just a tiny bit to
    make up for my disadvantage here,
[07:05] Kaoru
    but is it too selfish?
[07:07] Kaoru
    Will the god of Earth say no?
[07:11] Celes
    Oh, well, that's...
[07:11] Administrator
    I swear on my name...
[07:13] Celes
    Okay! No problem! That's just fine!
[07:17] Kaoru
    Oh, but I'll need containers
    to put the potions I create in.
[07:21] Celes
    Huh?!
[07:22] Kaoru
    And depending on the potion,
    different shapes and sizes might be required.
[07:27] Celes
    Uh-huh...
[07:29] Kaoru
    I don't want to think about it,
[07:31] Kaoru
    so can we just say any potion I make will
    appear in whatever container I think of?
[07:36] Celes
    Sure, the container isn't a problem at all.
[07:39] Kaoru
    Also...
[07:40] Celes
    What?! There's more?!
[07:42] Kaoru
    You did say earlier that
    you'd give me some freebies.
[07:47] Kaoru
    Right?!
[07:48] Celes
    That I did...
[07:49] Kaoru
    If I told him about this...
[07:51] Celes
    Oh, darn it! I'll give you
    whatever you want, okay?!
[07:54] Kaoru
    Well, thank you!
[07:56] Kaoru
    Yes! I got her to commit!
[07:59] Celes
    I will now begin the reincarnation process.
[08:02] Celes
    You want to retain your original genetics,
[08:04] Celes
    but revert to the youngest age
    considered adult in this world.
[08:07] Celes
    The ability to read, write,
    and speak all languages...
[08:11] Celes
    The power to create any potion you
    want in any container you want...
[08:16] Celes
    And...
[08:17] Celes
    Your own extra-dimensional storage
    space that only you can access,
[08:20] Celes
    that has unlimited capacity,
    is unaffected by the passage of time,
[08:23] Celes
    and that you can use whenever
    you want: an Item Box.
[08:27] Celes
    Are these all of your demands?
[08:29] Kaoru
    Yes. And just one last request...
[08:33] Celes
    What now?!
[08:34] Kaoru
    Please be my friend.
[08:38] Celes
    Yes, of course, Kaoru!
[08:49] Kaoru
    I hear birds singing...
[08:52] Bird1
    Yeah, but I can't believe the younger
    brother gets the throne, not the older one.
[08:56] Bird1
    Is the Kingdom of Balmore gonna make it?
[08:59] Bird2
    Dunno. I heard the older brother got
    hurt bad protecting the younger one.
[09:03] Bird2
    That's why he let him have the throne.
[09:06] Kaoru
    The ability to read, write,
    and speak all languages?!
[09:09] Kaoru
    What a dumb "freebie" to
    put all your effort into!
[09:13] Celes
    Tee-hee.
[09:14] Kaoru
    Whew, that turned into panic pretty quick.
[09:16] Kaoru
    Ow! Crap...
[09:18] Kaoru
    I guess this is my chance to test it out.
[09:21] Kaoru
    Appear, Wound-Healing Potion!
[09:25] Kaoru
    Wow, it really appeared.
[09:27] Kaoru
    And it's not a screw-on cap.
[09:29] Kaoru
    I guess they're in line with
    how advanced this world is.
[09:34] Kaoru
    Yikes, that's gonna leave a scar.
[09:38] Kaoru
    Yuck! I need to think about flavors, too!
[09:41] Kaoru
    It's fully healed! Leave it to the
    mysterious powers of a higher being...
[09:46] Kaoru
    And it looks like I have
    the body of a ninth grader.
[09:50] Kaoru
    That leaves...
[09:51] Kaoru
    Item Box, open!
[09:53] Kaoru
    Wonder if there's a hanky in there...
SIGN    Nothing in Storage
[09:56] Kaoru
    Yeah, I knew that.
[09:57] Kaoru
    Oh, I'll put the bottle in here.
SIGN    Wound-Healing Potion
     Bottle and Lid
    (Trash)
[10:00] Kaoru
    Looks like she kept her promise.
[10:04] Kaoru
    But you know, Celes, you could've put
    some useful items in that Item Box
[10:08] Kaoru
    or maybe beefed up my chest
    protection a little more!
SIGN    Was just barely a B on Earth
SIGN    Definitely an A now
[10:12] Kaoru
    Why couldn't you do that? Because...
[10:15] Kaoru
    She's Celes!
[10:17] Kaoru
    Yep. Perfect reasoning.
[10:20] Kaoru
    Okay! Time to start enjoying
    the world of Verny!
[10:28] Kaoru
    I wonder if that light is a town...
[10:30] Kaoru
    Recovery Potion, please.
[10:37] Kaoru
    I'm raring to go now!
[10:39] Kaoru
    That cleared my exhaustion right up!
[10:41] Kaoru
    Wait, it doesn't have any
    weird side effects, does it?
[10:44] Kaoru
    Now I'm kinda scared.
[10:49] Kaoru
    I gotta get some useful
    things in my Item Box soon.
[10:55] Kaoru
    I finally made it.
[10:57] Kaoru
    My belly's so bloated...
[10:59] Kaoru
    Right!
[11:01] Kaoru
    This is my safe, worry-free life
    in another world with an OP ability!
[11:05] Kaoru
    I'll start by procuring some funds.
[11:07] Kaoru
    I produced four healing potions.
[11:10] Kaoru
    And they cost me nothing to make,
    so it's pure profit.
[11:14] Kaoru
    How much should I try to get?
[11:16] Kaoru
    Oh, that's not a lamp?
[11:19] Kaoru
    A stone? A magic stone, I guess?
[11:21] Kaoru
    A world of magic and monsters!
[11:23] Kaoru
    It's starting to feel like an isekai now!
[11:26] Kaoru
    The hunters' guild!
[11:28] Kaoru
    I'd like to get at least four silver,
[11:30] Kaoru
    the amount they told me to expect at the inn.
[11:32] Kaoru
    They told me what most things here cost, too.
[11:35] Kaoru
    Time to march into battle!
[11:37] Kaoru
    Coming in!
[11:39] Kaoru
    I feel so awkward.
[11:41] Kaoru
    They're all foreigners.
[11:43] Kaoru
    Wait, I guess I'm the foreigner, huh?
[11:46] Kaoru
    Nothing will start if I don't go in!
[11:53] Gilda
    What? Potions?
SIGN    Her eyes look scary
SIGN    Eek!
[11:56] Kaoru
    It's medicine for cuts and bruises.
[11:58] Gilda
    Medicine?
[12:00] Gilda
    If you want to sell medicine,
    talk to a pharmacist or doctor.
[12:03] Gilda
    Why bring them to the hunters' guild?
     Are you dumb?
SIGN    Sunk
[12:07] Kaoru
    Whatever!
[12:09] Kaoru
    I'm sorry.
[12:10] Kaoru
    I just left the countryside, so I
    don't know how things work here.
[12:13] Kaoru
    If I don't sell them today, I
    can't afford food or lodging.
[12:17] Kaoru
    Tell me, where can I find
    the pharmacist and doctor?
[12:20] Gilda
    They're obviously not
    gonna be open this late.
[12:22] Gilda
    And the doctor's out making the
    rounds in the surrounding villages.
[12:25] Gilda
    The pharmacist's out of town, too.
[12:28] Gilda
    Neither of them will be back for a while.
[12:32] Kaoru
    It's all over!
[12:35] Gilda
    Oh, fine. You can stay just for tonight.
[12:38] Kaoru
    Huh?
[12:39] Gilda
    I'll lend you a folding bed. Sleep wherever.
[12:42] Kaoru
    Thank you so much!
[12:44] Gilda
    It's only for tonight. As for food...
[12:49] Gilda
    Figure that out on your own.
[12:51] Gilda
    I'll grant you permission
    to do business here.
[12:53] Kaoru
    O-Okay!
[12:55] Kaoru
    How about some healing potions?
[12:57] Kaoru
    The blue one that heals cuts
    and bruises costs one silver,
[13:01] Kaoru
    and the yellow one that heals anything,
    from fractures to internal injuries,
[13:04] Kaoru
    costs five silver.
[13:05] Karl
    A silver for an infusion of
    herbs she found lying around?
[13:06] Kaoru
    Anyone interested?
[13:08] Kaoru
    I only have one of the yellow,
    but I have three of the blue.
[13:09] Hunter1
    Maybe if it was two or three small silver...
[13:12] Kaoru
    Every adventurer needs these!
[13:13] Kaoru
    Why aren't they selling?
[13:15] Kaoru
    They work great, and they'll
    be a big help on monster hunts!
[13:15] Kaoru
    There should be demand for these...
    Did I price them too high?
[13:18] Kaoru
    Maybe healing magic is even cheaper?
[13:21] Kaoru
    But I can't set the price any lower...
[13:25] Kaoru
    I lose at life!
[13:26] Kaoru
    I want solid food! Using potions as
    nutritional supplements is pathetic!
[13:30] Gunther
    Hey, little lady.
[13:31] Kaoru
    Me?
[13:32] Gunther
    I can't buy those potions of yours,
[13:35] Gunther
    but do you wanna rub my feet instead?
[13:37] Gunther
    I'll pay you...
[13:39] Gunther
    with these.
[13:40] Kaoru
    I'll take that job!
[13:42] Hans
    You can do me next, then.
[13:44] Hans
    I'll give you two chicken
    skewers to rub my shoulders.
[13:47] Karl
    Then I'll give you a quarter of a boar steak
    to hit the pressure points on my back.
[13:51] Kaoru
    Gladly!
[13:53] Kaoru
    I gave my dad a lot of massages when
    I was a kid, so I'm good at it!
[13:56] Gunther
    You still are a kid!
[13:58] Hans
    No doubt.
[14:00] Hunter1
    Hey, do my lower back for me!
[14:02] Kaoru
    I don't think I can eat any more than this!
[14:06] Kaoru
    So please pay me in copper coins after this!
SIGN    Second stomach
    for dessert...
[14:10] Kaoru
    Well, I'm happy!
[14:12] Kaoru
    Even though I couldn't sell any potions.
[14:16] HunterC
    Someone, please, call a doctor!
[14:18] HunterB
    A gray bear got him!
[14:20] HunterB
    Please help! Hurry!
[14:24] Hunters
    A monster got him?
[14:25] Kaoru
    He's hurt bad.
[14:26] Hunters
    A gray bear, I heard.
[14:26] Kaoru
    So there really are monsters...
[14:28] HunterA
    What?!
[14:30] Gilda
    All I can do for him right now is treat
    him with the herbs I have on hand.
[14:35] Gilda
    But...
[14:36] Gilda
    With a wound like that, he's...
[14:39] Kaoru
    Someone use healing magic, quick!
[14:42] Kaoru
    With so many people here, there must
     be one or two who can use it!
[14:46] Kaoru
    If magic won't work, use a high-level potion!
[14:48] Kaoru
    Doesn't anybody have one?!
[14:50] Kaoru
    This man's life depends on it!
[14:52] HunterA
    What are you...
[14:54] Kaoru
    Oh, forget it! I'll do it!
[14:56] Kaoru
    Someone bring me the strongest
    drink here, in the bottle! Quickly!
[15:01] Karl
    R-Right...
[15:03] Kaoru
    Give him this.
[15:05] Kaoru
    I only have one of the
    yellow one. Don't spill any.
[15:08] HunterA
    Okay...
[15:09] Kaoru
    I'm borrowing that.
[15:12] Karl
    Here's the booze.
[15:13] Kaoru
    Thanks.
[15:16] Kaoru
    Tough it out.
[15:17] Kaoru
    Now, while he's conscious!
[15:33] HunterC
    Oh, thank goodness!
[15:36] Kaoru
    Drink this. It's my last one.
[15:38] HunterB
    I can't use something so valuable on—
[15:39] Kaoru
    Just do it!
[15:40] HunterB
    O-Okay...
[15:45] Gunther
    I don't believe it.
[15:47] Hans
    It's a miracle...
[15:48] Hunters
    That was such a bad wound...
[15:50] Hunters
    Am I just drunk?
[15:52] Gilda
    You're an angel...
[15:53] Karl
    An angel! An angel has come down to us!
[15:56] Gunther
    This is a joyous occasion!
    We're gonna drink tonight!
[15:58] Hunters
    Yeah!
[16:06] Kaoru
    Stupid Celes! You said
    they had this stuff here!
[16:10] Kaoru
    After that...
[16:11] Hans
    Medicines to heal injuries and illnesses
    are made from medicinal herbs, of course.
SIGN    It's juice. They said I look
     too young to drink alcohol.
SIGN    Hmph!
[16:16] Hans
    I've never heard of magical
    medicines like yours!
[16:20] Gilda
    They say only mages who train
    all their lives can use magic,
[16:23] Gilda
    and even then, only enough to light
    a candle or produce a drop of water.
[16:27] Kaoru
    That's not what you'd call having magic!
SIGN    Phosphorescent Rock
    A rock that absorbs light from bright areas and gives
    off its glow when it's dark, much like luminous paint
     on Earth. Not the same as radiation.
[16:30] Kaoru
    By the way, the street lights
    outside are phosphorescent rocks.
SIGN    I'm good
     at physics
[16:33] Kaoru
    They have nothing to do with magic at all.
[16:36] Kaoru
    I learned through my information-gathering
[16:39] Kaoru
    that this is not the world of swords
    and magic that I had imagined.
[16:43] Kaoru
    It felt so nice, though...
[16:46] Kaoru
    No, no! If they find a little girl with no
    background makes miraculous magic potions...
[16:51] Rische
    Hey, morning, little lady!
[16:53] Rische
    The lord of this land,
    Baron Renié, wants to see you.
[16:57] Kaoru
    This is what will happen.
[16:59] Rische
    Quit struggling!
[17:00] Kaoru
    Don't yank me like that! It hurts!
[17:03] Kaoru
    Maybe I'll try a little something...
[17:06] Kaoru
    If you're that rough with me,
    you'll break my bracelet!
[17:10] Rische
    Bracelet?
[17:11] Kaoru
    That's worth ten gold, you know.
[17:14] Rische
    What?!
[17:15] Kaoru
    Of course it's expensive. It's one
    of the freebies Celes gave me.
[17:21] Kaoru
    Thank you for inviting me here, Baron Renié.
[17:25] Renié
    I'm so glad you came, Kaoru, my dear!
[17:28] Renié
    Have a seat right there!
[17:30] Kaoru
    Baron Renié is the lord of this town.
[17:34] Kaoru
    He climbed the ladder by
    being stingy and violent.
[17:37] Kaoru
    He's just a terrible person.
[17:39] Kaoru
    That's what I head from the hunters.
[17:42] Kaoru
    Basically, in this world, he's
    the stereotypical minor noble.
[17:47] Renié
    Incidentally, Kaoru, my dear...
[17:49] Renié
    Tell me about that medicine
    you had. Where did you get it?
[17:54] Kaoru
    Oh, that? I made it myself.
[17:57] Renié
    You did?!
[17:58] Kaoru
    Yes.
[17:59] Kaoru
    But I can't make them any more.
[18:02] Renié
    What?! Why not?!
[18:06] Renié
    Is it this?! Is this why?!
[18:08] Kaoru
    Yes. Without this, I can't make medicine.
[18:12] Renié
    I gave Rische a good scolding.
[18:14] Renié
    Please forgive him for treating you that way.
[18:16] Kaoru
    This has been broken.
[18:19] Kaoru
    Maybe he was jealous of you
    monopolizing all the medicine?
[18:24] Renié
    Curse him! Why, I oughta...
[18:27] Kaoru
    This Rische guy is about to get some
    payback for being rough with me!
[18:32] Kaoru
    Thankfully, I think I can repair it.
     I just need a little time.
[18:36] Renié
    Oh, good!
[18:37] Renié
    Prepare a room for Kaoru!
[18:40] Renié
    The best room in this house!
[18:42] Head Maid
    Understood.
[18:45] Kaoru
    Well, I've assured my safety for now.
[18:49] Kaoru
    I mean, considering I only
    have a few copper coins on me,
[18:53] Kaoru
    I'm grateful to have three meals and a bed.
SIGN    I'll use a potion to grow
    out my hair!!
[18:56] Kaoru
    But I don't want to stay here long.
[18:57] Kaoru
    I need to come up with a plan.
[19:00] Kaoru
    Yes, come in.
[19:03] Head Maid
    I've brought some tools that
    might help with your repairs.
[19:06] Kaoru
    Thank you, head maid.
[19:08] Head Maid
    Here you go. It's heavy, mind.
[19:10] Kaoru
    Okay.
[19:12] Head Maid
    Is there anything else you need?
[19:14] Kaoru
    Only...
[19:16] Head Maid
    Is something the matter?
[19:17] Kaoru
    Huh?
[19:18] Kaoru
    Ah, no, nothing.
[19:20] Kaoru
    Can I ask for just one thing, then?
[19:23] Head Maid
    As you requested, I've brought all
    the maids who are close to your age.
[19:27] Kaoru
    Thank you.
[19:29] Kaoru
    As I think you've all heard by now...
[19:33] Kaoru
    I need someone on the same magical
    wavelength as me to be my assistant.
[19:39] Kaoru
    We won't be doing any
    weird rituals or anything.
[19:41] Kaoru
    You can relax.
[19:43] Kaoru
    You there...
[19:44] Hannah
    Y-Yes!
[19:45] Kaoru
    Would you help me?
[19:47] Kaoru
    We'll work late tonight,
[19:48] Kaoru
    so if you could join me after bringing
    a late-night snack, that would be great.
[19:51] Kaoru
    What's your name?
[19:52] Hannah
    My name is Hannah!
    It's a pleasure to meet you!
[19:57] Kaoru
    Whoa, there...
[19:59] Kaoru
    Gotta make sure the guards don't see...
[20:02] Kaoru
    Sorry, Hannah. This stuff will
    only put you out until morning.
[20:06] Kaoru
    Well, time to get started.
[20:16] Kaoru
    That just leaves... getting her
    clothes off. That won't be easy.
[20:19] Kaoru
    Oh, I know!
[20:21] Kaoru
    Put her maid uniform in storage.
[20:23] Kaoru
    This Item Box is seriously handy!
[20:28] Kaoru
    And now for the main event.
[20:32] Kaoru
    If I put the clothes in and
    take hers out at the same time,
[20:34] Kaoru
    and then drink this potion...
[20:37] Kaoru
    Dress change!
[20:52] Kaoru
    All done!
[20:55] Kaoru
    At least, that's that I envisioned,
    but it was actually instantaneous.
[20:58] Kaoru
    That Item Box won't let me have any fun.
[21:11] Renié
    She ran away?!
[21:13] Renié
    Th-This can't be...
[21:16] Renié
    I spent a lot of money
    on all those furnishings!
[21:19] Kaoru
    Anyone pursuing me on horseback
    should be catching up to me soon.
[21:23] Kaoru
    I changed my hair and eye colors,
[21:25] Kaoru
    and I put on clothes I stole from—
SIGN    Stole
[21:27] Kaoru
    Cough, cough.
[21:28] Kaoru
    I put on clothes I commandeered
     from that room,
SIGN    Commandeer
    To take
     something
     by force
[21:31] Kaoru
    so I don't think they'll
    recognize me easily, but...
[21:37] Kaoru
    Are those the pursuers' horses?
[21:43] Kaoru
    I'll just chill out here until they run by.
[21:46] Kaoru
    Maybe have breakfast while I wait...
[21:49] Kaoru
    It's actually yesterday's
    late-night snack, but still.
[21:52] Kaoru
    Yum!
[21:56] Gunther
    I think we can stop pretending
    to pursue her now.
[21:59] Hans
    We're pretty far from the baron's domain.
[22:01] Gunther
    We did enough work to earn
    the pay he promised.
[22:04] Kaoru
    I've heard those voices before...
[22:06] Gunther
    I mean, even if we found the angel
    who saved one of our buddies,
[22:09] Gunther
    does that lord really think
    we'd just hand her over?
[22:13] Karl
    I wanted to tell him,
    "Like hell I'm taking that job!"
[22:18] Hans
    Yeah, but then Gilda told us to make
    sure we just get good money out of him.
[22:22] Three
    That's our receptionist from hell!
[22:27] Gunther
    C'mon, let's go home!
[22:32] Kaoru
    I appreciate all of your help.
[22:35] Kaoru
    I'm headed for Aras, the royal
    capital of the Kingdom of Brancott!
[22:39] Kaoru
    Dear Nagase family,
[22:41] Kaoru
    as well as Kyoko and Reiko.
[22:44] Kaoru
    I'm doing pretty well for myself
    here in the parallel world of Verny.
[22:48] Kaoru
    And I've been put down
    as a friend of a goddess
[22:50] Kaoru
    who's pretty disappointing in a
    lot of ways, for a higher power.
[22:54] Kaoru
    This doesn't seem like such a bad place.
[22:57] Kaoru
    So on that note...
[22:59] Kaoru
    Come, potion!
[23:03] Kaoru
    I'm Kaoru Nagase, and I shall
     survive using potions!

[00:08] Eunice
    It's the goddess!
[00:10] Eunice
    Goddess!
[00:13] Kaoru
    Yo! Shut up!
SIGN    I'm glad I just
    used the bathroom...
SIGN    My Goal Is a Safe, Worry-Free Life in Another World!
SIGN    Stolen
    from the Baron
[01:50] Eunice
    So you're saying you come down
    to our world sometimes to rest?
SIGN    Commandeered
[01:54] Kaoru
    Boy, this is a problem.
    I was only camping out.
[01:58] Kaoru
    I really don't feel like explaining
    everything to passersby.
[02:02] Kaoru
    Oh well. Just this once...
[02:06] Kaoru
    Yes. This is how I share my goddess powers.
[02:12] Eunice
    Um, Goddess Celestine...
[02:14] Kaoru
    Oh, I'm not Celes.
[02:18] Kaoru
    I came here from another world.
[02:20] Kaoru
    Celes is my friend.
[02:22] Hector
    Wow! You're the goddess of another world?
[02:27] Kaoru
    He gets the concept of
    "another world," though?
[02:30] Eunice
    Brother Hector, this must be the
    mercy of the goddess Celestine.
[02:35] Hector
    Yeah.
[02:36] Hector
    I'm a noble of the neighboring
    Kingdom of Balmore,
[02:39] Hector
    the eldest child of Count Adan.
     My name is Hector.
[02:42] Hector
    This is my sister, Eunice...
[02:45] Hector
    and our knight escort, Francette.
[02:48] Kaoru
    The Kingdom of Balmore?
[02:50] Kaoru
    Come to think of it, when
    I first came here...
[02:52] (Flashback) Bird1
    Yeah, but I can't believe the younger
    brother gets the throne, not the older one.
[02:57] (Flashback) Bird1
    Is the Kingdom of Balmore gonna make it?
[03:00] Kaoru
    So it's the country those birds
    were gossiping about?
[03:02] Hector
    We're here in the Kingdom of Brancott
[03:05] Hector
    to visit our grandmother, who lives here.
[03:08] Hector
    She's gravely ill,
    and we're not very hopeful.
[03:11] Eunice
    And that's when we found you.
[03:14] Eunice
    This must be the work of the
    gracious goddess Celestine!
[03:19] Eunice
    Goddess, please grant your
    blessing to our grandmother!
[03:24] Kaoru
    Uh... I'm not sure I can
    believe my camping out here
[03:27] Kaoru
    was arranged by an airheaded
    goddess like her...
[03:33] Kaoru
    Very well. I will grant my blessing.
[03:37] Kaoru
    Someone, please, tell me a sad story.
[03:40] Kaoru
    Make me cry by telling
    me a sad, painful story.
[03:45] Kaoru
    No better wonder drug than a goddess's tears!
[03:48] Kaoru
    I gotta do at least this
    much to set things up.
[03:51] Hector
    So not only did I fall into the castle moat,
[03:54] Hector
    but my father scolded me, too!
[03:56] Kaoru
    Okay, next.
[03:58] Eunice
    And that's why my friend Felicia is so mean!
[04:03] Kaoru
    Okay, next.
[04:07] Kaoru
    Well, then...
[04:08] Francette
    Um... I don't think my story
    is particularly sad.
[04:19] Hector
    The goddess's tears!
[04:21] Eunice
    You did it, Fran!
[04:23] Kaoru
    Oh, how can I not shed
    tears after hearing that?

[04:29] (Flashback) Francette
    I spend my days as a female knight training
    so that I won't be looked down upon.
[04:34] (Flashback) Francette
    I have dedicated myself to
    the sword for over a decade,
[04:36] (Flashback) Francette
    paying no heed to the marriage
    proposals I've received.
[04:39] (Flashback) Francette
    Before I knew it, all my friends
    were married with children.
[04:44] (Flashback) Francette
    And when I look at myself,
[04:45] (Flashback) Francette
    I see a muscular body and
    hands hardened by the sword.
[04:49] (Flashback) Francette
    I am no longer of a desirable
    age for marriage.
[04:53] (Flashback) Francette
    I wonder if I'll be alone
    for the rest of my life.
[04:57] (Flashback) Francette
    And when I have such thoughts... well...
[04:59] (Flashback) Francette
    Oh, but this story really isn't that—
[05:02] Kaoru
    Are you kidding?! That's too sad!
[05:05] Kaoru
    So anyway, I came up with three bottles.
[05:09] Kaoru
    This one is for your sick grandmother.
[05:12] Kaoru
    This one is for you to drink.
[05:14] Francette
    Me?
[05:16] Kaoru
    I was deeply moved by your story.
[05:19] Kaoru
    Just be sure you only drink
    this around people you trust.
[05:23] Kaoru
    Otherwise it might spell trouble.
[05:25] Francette
    A-All right.
[05:27] Kaoru
    And this one...
[05:30] Kaoru
    Give it to a sick or injured
    person that you want to cure.
[05:35] Francette
    Someone that I want... to cure?
SIGN    Kingdom of Balmore
SIGN    One Month Later
SIGN    Kingdom of Brancott
[05:41] Serge
    Oh? Your children encountered
    the goddess of another world
SIGN    Kingdom of Balmore
    Royal Capital Grua
[05:45] Serge
    in a forest in the Kingdom of Brancott?
[05:47] Serge
    And what happened after that, Count Adan?
[05:50] Adan
    Well, the goddess completed
    her brief rest in our world,
[05:55] Adan
    and she left the forest.
[05:57] Serge
    Hmm... It seems a bit hard to believe.
[06:01] Adan
    Yes, but when Hector gave my
    mother the medicine he received,
[06:06] Adan
    she immediately made a full recovery.
[06:08] Serge
    Is that true?!
[06:10] Adan
    Yes.
[06:11] Crowd
    Is he trying to deceive the king?
[06:12] Crowd
    It couldn't be...
[06:17] Francette
    If that's how you feel, behold!
[06:20] Francette
    This is the medicine
    I received from the goddess!
[06:23] Eunice
    Fran...
[06:36] Serge
    I-It's a miracle!
[06:44] Francette
    This is the last of the
    medicines I received from her.
[06:47] Francette
    Please give it to Sir Roland.
[06:50] Roland
    Why me?
[06:51] Francette
    In your youth, Sir Roland, you were
    gravely injured while protecting
[06:56] Francette
    your younger brother, King Serge.
[06:59] Francette
    To this day, you cannot move your right arm.
[07:03] Serge
    Brother...
[07:07] Serge
    You allowed me to claim the title of
    crown prince because, in your words,
[07:11] Serge
    a man who can't hold a sword is
    unfit to be our people's king.
[07:14] Serge
    And now that our father is gone,
[07:17] Serge
    you still support me as my aide.
[07:20] Serge
    But...
[07:22] Serge
    the one who is truly fit to be king
[07:24] Serge
    is you, my brother.
[07:27] Serge
    Please, drink this.
[07:29] Roland
    No. You are the king, and if
    something happened to you—
[07:32] Francette
    The goddess...
[07:35] Francette
    The goddess told me to give that
    medicine to someone I wished to cure.
[07:43] Serge
    Brother, this medicine was
    meant for you and no one else!
[07:56] Roland
    My arm... I can move it!
[07:59] Serge
    Brother!
[08:07] Serge
    We must hold the coronation ceremony at once!
[08:09] Serge
    This time, you will be king of—
[08:11] Roland
    I refuse.
[08:14] Roland
    Being king is nothing but a headache.
[08:16] Roland
    I'm not letting you dump that burden on me.
[08:18] Roland
    I'm going to enjoy an easy life.
[08:21] Roland
    No matter what anyone says,
    you're the only king of this country,
[08:24] Roland

[08:33] Kaoru
    Thank you, Bowman, for taking me this far.
[08:37] Bowman
    No, I should thank you for
    keeping Charles company.
[08:40] Charles
    I learned a lot from you, Kaoru.
[08:42] Bowman
    Well, little lady, I wish you the best.
[08:45] Kaoru
    Thank you. I appreciate the ride.
[08:48] Charles
    See you later, Kaoru.
[08:49] Kaoru
    Sure, see you.
[08:54] Kaoru
    Yes! I made it to the royal capital, Aras!
[08:58] Kaoru
    Based on the information I got from
    the merchant who gave me a ride,
[09:02] Kaoru
    the Kingdom of Brancott is a stable
    nation ruled by a monarchy,
[09:06] Kaoru
    and this is its royal capital, Aras.
[09:09] Kaoru
    Incidentally, there's only one religion in
    this world, though it has multiple sects.
[09:14] Kaoru
    It turned out they worship
    none other than Celes.
[09:19] Kaoru
    So now that I'm here...
[09:21] Kaoru
    I need money for lodging.
[09:23] Kaoru
    I'll sell the stuff I stol—commandeered
    from the baron at a pawn shop.
[09:27] Kaoru
    Bowman bought some of it off of me,
[09:29] Kaoru
    but after paying the kingdom's entry tax,
    I don't have enough left.
[09:32] Kaoru
    What?! Stolen goods? How could you say that?
[09:36] Shopkeeker
    It's not that I think you're a thief.
[09:38] Shopkeeker
    But fine silverware like this
[09:40] Shopkeeker
    isn't the kind of thing a peasant
    would bring me, much less a child.
[09:45] Shopkeeker
    Where did you get these?
[09:47] Kaoru
    My mother, who just passed away,
    received them from a noble she was serving.
[09:52] Kaoru
    It's a long story, though. Sob, sob, sob...
[09:59] Shopkeeker
    This is the most my shop can give you.
[10:03] Kaoru
    Thank you so much.
[10:05] Shopkeeker
    Do your best out there,
    even if your mother's gone.
[10:08] Kaoru
    I will.
[10:09] Kaoru
    Yes! This'll keep me going for a while!
[10:16] Kaoru
    Apparently, I look pretty
    young in this world...
[10:19] Kaoru
    Like a little kid, even.
[10:23] Kaoru
    Being treated like a child everywhere I go
[10:25] Kaoru
    might have its uses,
    but it's kind of annoying.
[10:28] Kaoru
    I should've told her to give me the
    appearance of an adult when she made me younger.
[10:35] Kaoru
    If I have time to spend whining about my
    starting stats, I should be job-hunting!
[10:40] Kaoru
    Magic and potions basically
    don't exist in this world.
[10:44] Kaoru
    I can't make the same mistake as last time.
[10:46] Kaoru
    My goal is a safe,
    worry-free life in another world!
[10:50] Kaoru
    This time, I'm gonna make it happen!
SIGN    Brancott Castle
[10:56] Fernand
    Finally done...
[10:57] Fernand
    Fine work, Your Highness.
[11:00] Fernand
    All this paperwork, day after day...
[11:03] Fernand
    Tell me, Fabio. If being a
    crown prince is like this,
[11:05] Fernand
    what's going to happen when I'm king?
[11:08] Fernand
    Your father does ten times
    this much paperwork every day.
[11:13] Fernand
    You sure are lucky.
[11:15] Fernand
    As the prime minister's son,
    even if you inherit your dad's work,
[11:19] Fernand
    you can toss it all to your subordinates.
[11:21] Fabio
    Don't be silly.
[11:23] Fabio
    Listen well, Fernand. I say this
    as your long-time friend...
[11:28] Allan
    What's this? Getting another lecture?
[11:30] Fernand
    Allan? Wait, that outfit...
[11:33] Fernand
    Are you going out to town?
[11:35] Allan
    Yes, I thought I'd go get something to eat.
[11:38] Allan
    I came to invite Fabio.
[11:40] Fernand
    I'll go! I'll go! I'll go! I want to go!
SIGN    Big Belly Bistro
[11:49] Allan
    I've been favoring this restaurant lately.
[11:52] Allan
    The food's good, but it's also got...
[11:55] Agathe
    Welcome, Allan.
[11:58] Allan
    Hey, Agathe.
[11:59] Allan
    Some interesting things happen here.
[12:06] Fernand
    What's all this? I've never seen
    foods like these before.
[12:09] Fabio
    They certainly seem strange.
[12:12] Kaoru
    Thank you for waiting.
[12:14] Kaoru
    Your soup rice, plum flavor.
[12:16] Allan
    It's the new menu she suggested.
[12:19] Fabio
    New menu?
[12:20] Fabio
    Thick and tender soup pasta...
[12:22] Fabio
    Soup rice, plum or salmon...
[12:25] Fabio
    Egg-wrapped tomato and chicken rice...
[12:27] Fabio
    Just what are these dishes?
[12:30] Eme
    Are you ready to order?
[12:31] Allan
    Three of the usual.
[12:32] Fabio
    Hey! Don't just...
[12:37] Allan
    See? Isn't it great?
    It's my top recommendation.
[12:40] Fernand
    It's delicious! They don't even
    serve food this good in the castle!
[12:45] Fabio
    Flavoring rice with tomato
    and wrapping it in eggs...
[12:48] Fabio
    Well, it's certainly a cooking
    style no one's thought of before.
[12:52] Allan
    Right? And this savory flavor,
    with its subtle aroma...
[12:58] Allan
    I wonder if they use some secret spice.
[13:01] Eme
    I see you brought friends today.
[13:04] Allan
    Yeah. I wanted to show
    them the you-know-what.
[13:07] Allan
    Can we do that today?
[13:08] Eme
    Sure! Those are the only
    customers doing it right now.
[13:12] Eme
    So which course would you like?
[13:14] Allan
    I think... the one for five silver.
[13:17] Eme
    Ooh, how generous of you!
[13:19] Eme
    Our share is 40 percent of the fee,
[13:21] Eme
    and I split mine in half with Agathe, so...
[13:24] Eme
    Much appreciated!
[13:26] Eme
    Yay!
[13:27] Fabio
    And what was that dubious exchange all about?
[13:30] Allan
    Listen to what they're saying at that table.
[13:34] Kaoru
    So, Charles, you think you should just
    ignore troublesome customers at your shop?
[13:41] Charles
    Yes, there are really only a handful of them,
[13:45] Charles
    so I don't see the need to waste time on
    them or practice calming them down.
[13:50] Kaoru
    You think it's a waste of time?
[13:52] Charles
    Isn't it?
[13:54] Kaoru
    It's true that even if
    people are unsatisfied,
[13:58] Kaoru
    not many of them would come back to complain.
[14:00] Kaoru
    If they don't like it, they can
     always go to another shop.
[14:04] Charles
    Right.
[14:05] Kaoru
    But the fact that they came back to complain
[14:09] Kaoru
    means that they intend to
    continue patronizing your shop.
[14:13] Kaoru
    In other words, they like your shop,
[14:15] Kaoru
    and that's why they came back
    to tell you about its faults.
[14:18] Kaoru
    Can't you look at it that way?
[14:24] Kaoru
    It may seem like a pain on the surface,
[14:26] Kaoru
    but those are the sort of kind customers
    you should be grateful to have.
[14:30] Kaoru
    Don't you think they're worth treating well?
[14:35] Kaoru
    Oh, but people who gripe about faults that
    don't exist to get money out of you are different.
[14:41] Kaoru
    Never give those people money,
     no matter what.
[14:44] Kaoru
    If you do that,
[14:46] Kaoru
    bad guys will come from all over the
    country to take advantage of you.
[14:49] Charles
    Okay, I'll be careful.
[14:50] Kaoru
    Charles, customers aren't just easy
    marks for merchants to drain money from.
[14:56] Kaoru
    They're equal trade partners,
[14:58] Kaoru
    as well as teachers who
    can impart many lessons.
[15:03] Fernand
    Hey, who is that girl?
[15:05] Allan
    See? Interesting, isn't she?
[15:07] Fabio
    She's beyond interesting!
[15:08] Fernand
    Did that advice cost only five silver?
     If that was five silver...
[15:12] Allan
    Look, here she comes.
[15:14] Kaoru
    Thanks for all the repeat business, Allan.
[15:17] Kaoru
    You wanted the five-silver session, right?
[15:19] Allan
    Yeah. I brought a couple of friends today.
[15:21] Allan
    This is Fern and Fab.
[15:24] Allan
    They're the ones you'll be counseling.
[15:26] Fabio/Fernand
    Huh?
[15:28] Allan
    Hurry up and think of a
    question worth five silver.
[15:34] Fernand
    Just who is this Kaoru girl?
[15:37] Allan
    Dunno. A waitress for a restaurant downtown?
[15:41] Fabio
    One who proposed dishes the likes of
    which no one has come up with before,
[15:45] Fabio
    and who can give advice surpassing any
    scholar's about managing a domain?
[15:51] Allan
    Yeah, that part surprised me, too.
[15:53] Fabio
    Her advice was the total
    opposite of the way we think.
[15:56] Fernand
    True...
[15:59] (Flashback) Kaoru
    First, lower taxes.
[16:01] (Flashback) Fernand
    What? But lower taxes would mean
    less income for the domain.
[16:05] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Yes, but if you leave people with
    next to nothing, you're done.
[16:09] (Flashback) Kaoru
    What if you lowered taxes
    by... say... 20 or 30 percent?
[16:14] (Flashback) Fernand
    Our tax revenue would drop.
[16:16] (Flashback) Kaoru
    People could afford more.
[16:18] (Flashback) Kaoru
    For example, farmers could
    buy better farming tools,
[16:21] (Flashback) Kaoru
    allowing them to farm more efficiently.
[16:23] (Flashback) Kaoru
    And if they farm more efficiently,
[16:24] (Flashback) Kaoru
    they can use the extra
    time to do other things.
[16:28] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Like gathering firewood and edible
    plants from the mountains,
[16:30] (Flashback) Kaoru
    or making hand-crafted goods at home.
[16:33] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Then they'd have even more room to breathe.
[16:35] (Flashback) Fabio
    What about merchants, then?
[16:37] (Flashback) Fabio
    Taxes on goods entering
    and leaving the domain
[16:39] (Flashback) Fabio
    are a valuable source of income.
[16:42] (Flashback) Fabio
    Same for sales tax.
[16:43] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Yes, but what if reducing those taxes
    means more merchants pass through?
[16:49] (Flashback) Kaoru
    What if, after reducing taxes by 20 percent,
[16:51] (Flashback) Kaoru
    you get two or three times as many merchants?
[16:55] Fabio
    That would be plenty...
[16:57] Fabio
    No, it would lead to even bigger profits.
[17:00] (Flashback) Kaoru
    When people have more money to spare,
[17:02] (Flashback) Kaoru
    their purchasing power grows.
[17:04] (Flashback) Kaoru
    And the merchants that enter your
    domain won't leave empty-handed.
[17:08] (Flashback) Kaoru
    They'll buy things before they go.
[17:10] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Like those hand-crafted
    goods the farmers made.
[17:14] (Flashback) Fernand
    So that's it...
[17:16] (Flashback) Allan
    See? Amazing, isn't she?
[17:18] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Well, I suppose this is
    what five silver is worth.
[17:22] Fabio
    If we actually lower the tax rate,
[17:24] Fabio
    we'll inevitably see backlash from
    neighboring domains we're taking profits from.
[17:29] Fabio
    It's not realistic.
[17:31] Allan
    But it'll take a very
    short time to get results.
[17:34] Allan
    It definitely meets all
    the minimum requirements
[17:37] Allen
    for advice about how to
    increase a domain's profits.
[17:40] Fernand
    I want her.
[17:42] Fernand
    I want that girl named Kaoru.
[17:46] Allen
    She's just a little girl, you know.
[17:47] Fabio
    Fernand...
[17:49] Fernand
    Huh?
[17:50] Fernand
    No, no, no! I didn't mean it that way!
[17:53] Eme
    Kaoru's staff meals are the best!
[17:58] Agathe
    This soup is really good.
[18:01] Agathe
    Did you put something special in it?
[18:03] Kaoru
    Well, uh... a few spices from my homeland.
[18:07] Kaoru
    I can't tell them I used soy sauce
    that I made with my OP skill.
[18:12] Kaoru
    But it's not something that'll
    change history or civilization,
[18:16] Kaoru
    so I guess this much is safe.
[18:18] Agathe
    Today was another busy day, huh?
[18:20] Eme
    We get more customers since Kaoru came along.
[18:23] Eme
    And her counseling business is booming!
[18:25] Eme/Agathe
    It makes us do the shared-profit dance!
[18:28] Kaoru
    Since I came to this town,
[18:29] Kaoru
    I've hardly used my potion ability
    for anything but cooking.
[18:33] Kaoru
    I'm just working as an
    ordinary waitress every day,
[18:36] Kaoru
    and it's pretty fulfilling.
[18:38] Kaoru
    And I've made friends besides
    Celes with Eme and Agathe here.
[18:43] Kaoru
    Every day is peaceful and stable.
[18:45] Kaoru
    This is just the kind of life I wanted.
[18:47] Agathe
    So anyway, what did you think?
[18:49] Kaoru
    Huh?
[18:50] Agathe
    About Fern, the man who was here today!
[18:52] Kaoru
    Wha?
[18:53] Agathe
    Oh, gosh. She has no clue at all.
[18:56] Kaoru
    What?
[18:57] Eme
    Well, you know...
[18:59] Agathe
    Right?
[19:01] Kaoru
    But after that day, my peaceful,
    quiet life in another world...

[19:24] Kaoru
    I am not your personal servant or consultant!
[19:27] Kaoru
    Please place your orders with a
    different waitress from now on.
[19:31] Fernand
    Where's this coming from?!
[19:32] Kaoru
    I've told you over and over
    that you're bothering me!
[19:36] Kaoru
    And that you're a nuisance
    to our other customers!
[19:42] Kaoru
    I've had enough!

    If you're going to keep bothering me,

[20:01] Fernand
    Move! Who do you think I—
[20:06] Fernand
    What am I doing?
[20:08] Fernand
    Do I want to sully the nobility
    by giving my name here?
[20:25] Fabio
    This is why I told you
    to stop sneaking around.
[20:28] Allan
    Hey. She shot you down hard, huh?
[20:32] Fabio
    Kaoru is a very valuable person.
[20:38] Allan
    You know, you're a lot
    clumsier than I thought.
[20:42] Fabio
    If you want her, you must start
    by treating her like a lady.
[20:54] Eme
    Come to think of it,
    Fern hasn't been by since then.
[20:57] Agathe
    Well, I guess anyone would give up
    after such a thorough rejection.
[21:02] Agathe
    At the time, I thought he was a real jerk,
[21:04] Agathe
    but I might feel a little bad for him.
[21:07] Kaoru
    Oh, I'll go sweep outside.
[21:12] Kaoru
    You've gotta be kidding!
[21:13] Kaoru
    I finally had my safe,
    worry-free life in another world!
[21:17] Kaoru
    Now I have to run away from a stalker?
[21:19] Kaoru
    Unbelievable!
[21:27] Aleman
    You there. Is the girl named
    Kaoru in this restaurant?
[21:31] Kaoru
    Kaoru? That's me.
[21:33] Aleman
    You? Hah! And I wondered what you'd be like.
[21:36] Aleman
    You're just a little girl.
[21:43] Aleman
    Take this.
[21:45] Kaoru
    What is it?
[21:52] Kaoru
    No, no, no! That package
    must be for the neighbors!
[21:55] Kaoru
    But this...
[21:59] Kaoru

[22:01] Kaoru
    Don't tell me!

SIGN    The Day Before the Party
[02:05] (Flashback) Eme
    What? You're leaving town?
[02:07] (Flashback) Agathe
    But why, all of a sudden?
[02:09] (Flashback) Kaoru
    I got a letter summoning me.
[02:12] (Flashback) Kaoru
    It seems like I've caught the
    attention of someone important.
[02:18] (Flashback) Kaoru
    So I figured I'd quietly leave
    town before things get messy.
[02:23] (Flashback) Kaoru
    But I wanted to tell the people
    who helped me out what's going on,
[02:26] (Flashback) Kaoru
    and give them all a proper goodbye.
[02:28] (Flashback) Owner
    We'll miss you.
[02:35] Kaoru
    The letter turned out to be an invitation.
[02:38] Kaoru
    An order, in fact, to attend a
    party at the castle one week later.
[02:44] (Flashback) Eme
    But we just got to be friends!
[02:47] (Flashback) Agathe
    Take care, Kaoru.
    Don't forget about us, okay?
[02:51] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Sure. Thanks for everything.
[02:54] Kaoru
    I doubt they found out about my potions.
[02:56] Kaoru
    But if I ignore this order, it'll cause
    trouble for all these people.
[03:00] Kaoru
    So...
[03:03] Kaoru
    I won't run away. I'll settle
    everything before I leave.
[03:09] MotherB
    Bear with it!
[03:11] MotherB
    This is an important night! The crown
    prince will be choosing his future queen!
[03:15] MotherB
    You must catch his eye, whatever it takes!
[03:17] Kaoru
    Put away my dress and give
    me a maid outfit instead.
[03:25] Kaoru
    Man, Item Box is the best!
[03:27] MotherB
    Come on! Show more cleavage!
[03:29] MotherB
    The crown prince is a man, after all.
[03:32] MotherB
    You must appeal to him
    with your womanly charms!
[03:35] LadyB
    And what do you want?
[03:36] Kaoru
    Nothing. I apologize.
[03:40] MotherB
    Whose maid was that?
[03:42] LadyB
    Who knows?
[03:43] LadyB
    I can't imagine what someone was thinking,
    bringing a maid with such scary eyes.
[03:51] Fernand
    Why? Why isn't she here?!
[03:53] Allan
    What's wrong? Why the scary face?
[03:56] Allan
    I mean, I guess I can understand.
[03:59] Allan
    This is an important night for you.
[04:02] Fabio
    But is that any reason to scare all
    your potential marriage candidates?
[04:06] Fernand
    I'm waiting for someone.
[04:09] Allan

SIGN    Bingo
[04:13] Allan
    Well? Who is it?
[04:15] Fabio
    Well? Who is it?
[04:17] Fernand
    She's not here.
[04:18] Allan/Fabio
    Huh?
[04:19] Fernand
    She's not even here!
[04:21] Fernand
    I personally wrote an invitation
    and had it delivered to her!
[04:27] Fernand
    Can you believe that?!
[04:28] Fernand
    How could such a thing be possible?!
[04:30] Allan
    I mean, yeah, it seems implausible.
[04:33] Allan
    The one chosen by you is promised
    the throne of the future queen.
[04:37] Allan
    It would take a very strange
    girl to throw that away.
[04:41] Fabio
    Oh, speaking of strange...
[04:43] Fabio
    I saw that girl a moment ago.
[04:45] Fabio
    The one from the restaurant
    downtown, Kaoru...
[04:48] Fernand
    Where was she?!
[04:49] Fabio
    Serving guests in the main hall.
[04:51] Fabio
    She seemed busy, so I didn't speak to her...
[04:57] Allan
    Hey!
[05:00] Allan
    Don't tell me he...
[05:03] Fernand
    Why are you here dressed like that?
[05:09] Kaoru
    I knew it was him.
[05:11] Kaoru
    Because I'm a waitress.
[05:13] Kaoru
    What other clothes would I wear?
[05:15] Fernand
    That's not what I'm talking about!
[05:18] Fernand
    You are my personally invited guest!
[05:21] Kaoru
    Well, when a commoner girl
    who works as a waitress
[05:24] Kaoru
    is told to come to a party at
    the castle with no explanation,
[05:28] Kaoru
    why wouldn't she think it was for work?
[05:30] Kaoru
    I don't even have a dress to wear.
[05:32] Fernand
    What?
[05:33] Fernand
    Where is Viscount Aleman?!
[05:34] Aleman
    R-Right here, Your Highness!
[05:37] Fernand
    What is the meaning of this?
[05:39] Fernand
    I'm certain I told you
[05:42] Fernand
    that when you gave the invitation
    to Kaoru at Big Belly Bistro,
[05:44] Fernand
    you were to include a dress,
    shoes, and jewelry along with it!
[05:49] Aleman
    B-But I did deliver those things!
[05:53] Kaoru
    Yes, this man did come to the restaurant.
[05:56] Kaoru
    But he only said "take this" through
    the window of his carriage,
[06:00] Kaoru
    handed me a letter to get me
    into the castle, and left.
[06:04] Fernand
    Where's the dress? The jewelry?
[06:06] Kaoru
    I don't know.
[06:07] Aleman
    She's lying!
[06:08] Aleman
    I delivered a box containing
    the clothing and the jewelry!
[06:12] Kaoru
    A box?
[06:14] Kaoru
    By any chance, do you mean the package that
    was delivered to the business next to ours?
[06:19] Kaoru
    Since you didn't say anything to me,
[06:21] Kaoru
    I believed it was for our neighbors.
[06:25] Kaoru
    And I can't just go around
    opening other people's packages.
[06:29] Kaoru
    So I left it alone, and it
     was gone in no time.
[06:34] Fernand
    Viscount Aleman.
[06:36] Fernand
    We will have a long talk about this later.
[06:41] Aleman
    Y-Yes, Your Highness.
[06:43] Fernand
    Well, no matter. At least
    she received the invitation.
[06:48] Fernand
    Come! I'm introducing you
    to everyone as my fiancée!
[06:51] Kaoru
    What?!
[06:53] King/Queen
    What?!
[06:54] Ladies
    What?!
[06:55] All
    What?!
[06:58] Fernand
    Come, Kaoru. You can stay in that outfit.
[07:01] Fernand
    You must greet my mother and father.
[07:03] Kaoru
    Wh-What nonsense are you spouting?!
[07:06] Kaoru
    A commoner can't be engaged to a prince!
[07:09] Fernand
    That's easy.
[07:11] Fernand
    We'll just get you adopted into the
    family of some count or something.
[07:14] Kaoru
    You're going about this in the wrong order!
[07:17] Kaoru
    An engagement after I'm adopted
    by a count would be one thing,
[07:19] Kaoru
    but getting adopted after
    we're already engaged?
[07:22] Fernand
    It's fine! It doesn't bother me!
[07:24] Kaoru
    First of all, you're already making a big show
SIGN    My Fiancée
SIGN    Commoner + Waitress
[07:27] Kaoru
    of announcing that your fiancée is a commoner,
     and just a girl who works as a waitress.
[07:32] Kaoru
    No one will accept me as a noble now!
[07:34] Kaoru
    They'll gossip and
    ridicule me behind my back.
[07:37] Kaoru
    It will only end up sullying
    the royal family's name!
[07:42] Kaoru
    And the biggest problem of all...
[07:44] Kaoru
    Your Highness! Have you even
    asked me if I want to marry you?
[07:50] Fernand
    Huh?
[07:51] Kaoru
    Well, I don't. Marrying a
    prince is off the table.
[07:54] Kaoru
    I absolutely refuse!
[07:56] All
    What?!
[07:58] Kaoru
    Being a queen ranks among the top
    three jobs I never want to have!
[08:07] Kaoru
    If I become queen, I can
    kiss my privacy goodbye.
[08:09] Kaoru
    I won't be allowed to be
    friends with certain people.
[08:12] Kaoru
    I'll have to smile and exchange
    pleasantries with people I hate.
[08:15] Kaoru
    A wet nurse will take away my children
    as I drown in official business.
[08:19] Kaoru
    Plus, I'll be pressured to keep birthing sons,
[08:21] Kaoru
    as well as some daughters for
    the more diplomatic roles.
[08:25] Kaoru
    I'll be physically and emotionally worn down,
[08:28] Kaoru
    while in the meantime, my husband is
    off snoozing in his mistress's bed.
[08:34] Kaoru
    There's nothing to enjoy in a life like that.
[08:40] Fernand
    M-Mother!
[08:43] Kaoru
    It's basically the same if you marry into
    the family of a marquis or count, right?
[08:48] Kaoru
    You hardly ever get to leave your mansion,
[08:50] Kaoru
    and parties are just for
    sizing each other up.
[08:52] Kaoru
    You don't have any true friends at all.
SIGN    Hurry up and produce an heir
SIGN    Uphold the family customs
SIGN    You belong to this family now
SIGN    You don't get to go home
[08:56] Kaoru
    You're pressured to hurry
    up and produce an heir,
[08:58] Kaoru
    your parents-in-law expect you
    to uphold their family customs,
[09:03] Kaoru
    you're not allowed to visit your own family,
[09:05] Kaoru
    and your husband cheats on you
    because it's just what nobles do.
[09:11] Kaoru
    Though, as far as that goes,
    viscounts and barons have it easy.
[09:15] Kaoru
    Although they hold noble ranks,
    they're removed from the power struggles.
[09:20] Kaoru
    They're close with all their servants,
[09:22] Kaoru
    and they can probably even
    raise their own kids.
[09:25] Kaoru
    They can live easy lives in the country,
    surrounded by their family and subjects.
[09:30] Kaoru
    That's what my idea of an ideal marriage is.
[09:34] Kaoru
    I don't want a life where I'm
    high-ranking but miserable,
[09:37] Kaoru
    drowning in unhappiness and boredom every day.
[09:41] Kaoru
    I'll leave that to the noblewomen who
    live in luxury on the people's taxes,
[09:44] Kaoru
    and who are resolved to fully give
    themselves to the kingdom
[09:49] Kaoru
    in exchange for a higher education.
[09:51] Fernand
    I don't care about all that!
[09:53] Fernand
    It's your knowledge and wisdom that I want!
[09:57] Fernand
    With your intelligence and good looks,
[10:01] Fernand
    you and I could make this
    kingdom even more—
[10:03] Kaoru
    Knowledge and wisdom?
[10:04] Kaoru
    Intelligence and good looks?
[10:06] Kaoru
    Those are all just things that
    you can take advantage of!
[10:10] Fernand
    W-Well...
[10:12] Kaoru
    Where does what I want fit in?
[10:14] Kaoru
    Do the feelings of the human
    being named Kaoru mean nothing?
[10:18] Kaoru
    Is that something a prince doesn't
    even need to bother thinking about?
[10:22] Fernand
    I-I...
[10:35] Kaoru
    Look. Now I'm an ugly, foolish girl.
[10:39] Kaoru
    Just a commoner who offers
    no value or advantage to a prince.
[10:46] Kaoru
    Now you don't need me anymore, right?
[10:51] Fabio
    Let her go.
[10:53] Fabio
    That's the only thing you can do right now.
[10:55] Allan
    We'll get things under control here.
[11:01] Kaoru
    Ow! Ow! Ow!
[11:03] Kaoru
    It hurts!
[11:08] Kaoru
    Just a potion to stop bleeding and pain.
[11:11] Kaoru
    I can't use a healing potion yet.
[11:13] Kaoru
    I need to get out of the capital first!
[11:24] Guard
    Miss...
[11:25] Guard
    You're bleeding! What in the world happened?!
[11:28] Kaoru
    I upset a noble.
[11:30] Kaoru
    I must leave this city at once.
[11:34] Guard
    Wait just a minute.
[11:39] Guard
    It's not much, but take these.
[11:42] Guard
    Get moving. I'll pretend I never saw you.
[11:44] Kaoru
    Thank you so much.
[11:51] Kaoru
    Healing potion!
[11:57] Kaoru
    There's no way they'll
    chase me this far, right?
[12:00] Kaoru
    Ah, I feel so much better!
[12:04] Abilly
    Wow...
[12:06] Abilly
    So discounting items right before
    the store closed backfired?
[12:09] Kaoru
    Yes.
[12:10] Kaoru
    Customers would just wait
    until they reduced the prices,
[12:13] Kaoru
    so sales of items at the
    regular price plummeted.
[12:16] Abilly
    I see!
[12:17] Abilly
    So are there any effective sales
    methods other than discounts?
[12:22] Kaoru
    Well, there's always...
[12:25] Abilly
    What an interesting girl!
[12:26] Abilly
    Imagine having the business knowledge to
    debate with Abilly here at such a young age!
[12:31] Abilly
    Say, Kaoru, would you be
    interested in working for me?
[12:35] Abilly
    Ah, peddling is sort of
    a hobby of mine, you see.
[12:39] Abilly
    I'm Johan Abilly, the owner of
    the one and only Abilly Company!
[12:43] Abilly
    We're one of the biggest
    stores in the capital!
[12:45] Abilly
    I'd say it's a good dea—
[12:46] Kaoru
    I appreciate the offer, but no thanks.
[12:48] Abilly
    Huh?!
[12:50] Kaoru
    Hup.
[12:52] Kaoru
    I have to take care of my
    registration, so I'll get off here.
[12:56] Kaoru
    Thank you very much for the ride.
[13:01] Kaoru
    Bye, now.
[13:03] Abilly
    Uh... but we're the Abilly Company
    that gets a barrage of
[13:07] Abilly
    new employee applications
    every year, though.
[13:10] Kaoru
    I appreciate his offer,
[13:12] Kaoru
    but doing grunt work for a big trade
    company comes with a lot of stress,
[13:15] Kaoru
    and probably long hours of hard labor.
[13:18] Kaoru
    And what I want is...
SIGN    Royal Capital Grua
    Employment Agency

[13:23] Aria
    A live-in job that offers a lot of free time?
SIGN    Gilda from

[13:27] Kaoru
    Why does this feel like déjà vu?
[13:29] Kaoru
    Are all receptionist ladies
    in this world the same?
[13:32] Kaoru
    Yes. I want to save money and
    eventually open my own business.
[13:37] Kaoru
    I was hoping to study for that.
[13:39] Aria
    Huh...
[13:40] Aria
    All right. Can you cook and clean?
[13:43] Kaoru
    Yes, as well as anyone.
[13:45] Aria
    Here you go.
[13:47] Aria
    The terms aren't that bad, really.
[13:50] Aria
    Can't say whether you'll last, though.
[13:55] Kaoru
    Live-in help.
[13:57] Kaoru
    Duties include preparing meals for the workshop
    owner and craftsmen, totaling five people,
[14:01] Kaoru
    as well as cleaning,
    laundry, and other chores.
[14:04] Kaoru
    I can choose my own time off,
[14:06] Kaoru
    I'm allowed to go out,
    and I get holidays off, too.
SIGN    Meyer Workshop
[14:12] Kaoru
    The Meyer Workshop.
[14:14] Kaoru
    Man, the terms of this job
    are almost too favorable!
[14:19] Bardot
    I'm Bardot, the owner of this workshop.
[14:23] Bardot
    Sorry, but you should consider these
    first few days a trial period.
[14:27] Bardot
    Everyone we hire quits almost immediately,
[14:29] Bardot
    and the referral fees are piling up.
[14:31] Bardot
    The agency's made an exception to let me
    hold off on paying a referral fee this time.
[14:36] Kaoru
    Oh...
[14:37] Bardot
    Boy, I sure am glad you're here!
[14:42] Bardot
    Let me introduce you to everyone.
[14:45] Bardot
    If you don't think you can handle it,
     let me know right away.
[14:48] Bardot
    I'm used to that, so I won't be hurt.
[14:50] Bardot
    Okay, boys, wake up!
    This is our new helper, Kaoru!
[14:55] Brian/Alban
    That's great...
[14:56] Bardot
    This is Brian, Alban, and Carlos.
[14:59] Bardot
    Hey! Wake up, Asil!
[15:02] Kaoru
    What is that smell?
[15:04] (Flashback) Aria
    Can't say whether you'll last, though.
[15:06] Kaoru
    So that's what she meant.
[15:08] Kaoru
    But I have...
[15:10] Kaoru
    my potions!
[15:12] Carlos
    Wow! Even those tough grease stains are gone!
[15:18] Alban
    They're so white, they're blinding me!
[15:20] Brian
    And so soft!
[15:25] Asil
    Even the food we had back
    home wasn't this good!
[15:30] Kaoru
    I didn't move anything that
    already has its own place.
[15:33] Kaoru
    The notes that were scattered
    on the floor are over there.
[15:35] Kaoru
    I didn't touch any chemicals
    or experimental materials.
[15:40] Bardot
    What is that I smell?
[15:42] Kaoru
    Kaoru's special deodorizing spray,
[15:45] Kaoru
    made with tea and plant extracts.
[15:50] Kaoru
    And so my new life as a helper began.
[15:57] Kaoru
    You're really into your work, Asil.
[15:59] Kaoru
    What's that you're making?
[16:01] Asil
    A hip flask.
[16:02] Asil
    It's a container made to hold drinks
    with high alcoholic content.
[16:06] Asil
    It's not one of the fancy
    silver ones meant for nobles,
[16:09] Asil
    but ours are both lightweight and tough.
[16:11] Asil
    They sell well in this town.
[16:13] Kaoru
    Wow...
[16:15] Kaoru
    That's it! Even if I don't
    sell the potions themselves,
[16:18] Kaoru
    if I could sell just the containers.
[16:21] Asil
    Research is important, too,
[16:22] Asil
    but we have to make products like
    this to sell every now and then.
[16:26] Asil
    Not that we make a lot of
    profit off of them, but...
[16:29] Kaoru
    Say...
[16:31] Kaoru
    Would things like glass bottles sell well?
[16:35] Asil
    Hmm... I don't think ordinary
    bottles would cut it.
[16:38] Asil
    Maybe if it was a perfume
    bottle with a fancy design.
[16:45] Kaoru
    My ability...
[16:47] Kaoru
    is the power to create potions
    with any effect I want.
[16:52] Kaoru
    And those potions appear in whatever
    container I imagine for them.
[16:59] Kaoru
    A friend of mine made
    this during work breaks.
[17:04] Brian
    Are you kidding?
[17:05] Carlos
    They made this during their free time?
[17:07] Alban
    The craftsmanship, the
    clarity of the glass...
[17:10] Alban
    Even artisans acclaimed as masters are
    rarely able to make anything like this!
[17:14] Bardot
    Yeah...
[17:15] Kaoru
    Oops. Guess I went too far.
[17:17] Bardot
    Would you let me meet your friend?
[17:20] Bardot
    I want to know more about this.
[17:22] Kaoru
    Ah, no, she only makes these as a hobby.
[17:25] Kaoru
    Her family is strict.
[17:27] Kaoru
    Plus, she has a fear of men.
[17:30] Asil
    A woman made this?
[17:32] Kaoru
    Well, yes,
[17:33] Kaoru
    which is why she can't really
    be too open about it.
[17:38] Kaoru
    But she said that if she could sell them to
    a certain demographic through this workshop,
[17:43] Kaoru
    she'd accept a job making them on commission.
[17:47] Kaoru
    Of course, she'll charge a handling fe—
[17:49] Bardot
    We would be thrilled to!
[17:52] Kaoru
    And now, I'm living a peaceful life.
[17:57] Kaoru
    Between my pay for helping out
[17:59] Kaoru
    and the profits from the
    perfume bottles, I have plenty of money.
[18:02] Kaoru
    When I'm not working, I often
    visit the town library.
[18:07] Kaoru
    Thanks to that, I have a fair amount
    of knowledge about this world now.
[18:11] Kaoru
    Now all I need is to find a patron,
    solidify my own position,
[18:15] Kaoru
    and live even more freely.
[18:17] Kaoru
    I was lucky enough to reincarnate
    with an overpowered skill.
[18:21] Kaoru
    Now if I can just establish
    my own place here,
[18:23] Kaoru
    I'll have the freedom to
    be a little more proactive.
[18:26] Kaoru
    Using my potions to help
    people might be nice.
[18:31] Kaoru
    It'd be boring to just
    work as a helper forever.
[18:38] Owner
    Hey!
[18:40] Owner
    Don't you want to chase him?!
    He stole your money pouch!
[18:42] Owner
    That kid's the leader of a gang of vagabonds
    who have their base around here.
[18:48] Kaoru
    It's all right. That one was a dummy.
[18:51] Owner
    A dummy?
[18:52] Kaoru
    My real money pouch is in my Item Box.
[18:55] Kaoru
    The one he stole was rigged
    with a little extra something.
[18:59] Kaoru
    He won't get away.
[19:08] Kaoru
    It's Kosha's mom today, right?
[19:10] Emil
    Yeah. She was doing honest work,
[19:13] Emil
    but a noble got violent with
    her for his own amusement.
[19:15] Emil
    She's hurt too bad to move.
[19:20] Kaoru
    There's something I've learned
    while living in this world.
[19:24] Kaoru
    Even a country that might
    seem peaceful at a glance
[19:26] Kaoru
    is full of problems just under the surface.
[19:30] Kaoru
    Nobles are privileged enough
    to live in affluence,
[19:34] Kaoru
    but commoners, especially
    the ones living in poverty,
[19:37] Kaoru
    aren't even treated as human beings.
[19:40] Kaoru
    No matter how diligently they work,
    they can't make a decent living.
[19:44] Kaoru
    The orphaned kids, in particular,
    have to resort to crime to stay alive.
[19:49] Kaoru
    That kind of world is wrong.
[20:17] Kosha
    Who is it?
[20:18] Kaoru
    I'm coming in.
[20:19] Kosha
    O-Okay.
[20:22] Mom
    What is it?
[20:23] Kosha
    Someone's here.
[20:25] Kaoru
    It's nice to meet you, Kosha.
[20:27] Kaoru
    I'm a chemist.
[20:29] Kaoru
    Celes-certified.
[20:30] Kosha
    Celes?
[20:32] Kaoru
    Yeah. Maybe you're more familiar
    with the name "Celestine"?
[20:36] Kosha
    The goddess?!
[20:37] Kaoru
    I'd like to give your mother some medicine.
[20:40] Kaoru
    May I?
[20:41] Kosha
    Yeah!
[20:45] Kaoru
    I bestow healing upon those
    with righteous hearts!
[20:51] Kaoru
    Here, drink this.
[20:53] Mom
    O-Okay...
[21:02] Mom
    The wounds... The pain...
[21:05] Kosha
    Mommy!
[21:07] Mom
    Kosha! Oh, Kosha!
[21:14] Mom
    Wh-Who are you?
[21:17] Kaoru
    Well... I'm sort of a friend
    of Celes, sort of a chemist...
[21:21] Mom
    You are most exalted!
    How can I ever thank you?
[21:25] Kaoru
    Well, I'll accept payment for the medicine.
[21:28] Kaoru
    You can just give me whatever you can spare.
[21:30] Mom
    I'm sorry... I haven't been able to work,
     so I don't have anything.
[21:35] Kaoru
    Then your fee today will be...
[21:38] Kaoru
    Nothing beats the smooth,
    squishy cheeks of a little girl!
[21:43] Kaoru
    I decided to start working under the
    identity of "the goddess Celestine's friend."
[21:49] Kaoru
    I use information brought to me by children
[21:52] Kaoru
    to help people suffering
    from illness or injury.
[21:55] Kaoru
    Quietly, bit by bit,
[21:58] Kaoru
    I'm bringing the goddess's blessing
    to those with righteous hearts.
[22:00] Kaoru
    That's the work of the secret society
    known as "The Eyes of the Goddess."
[22:04] Kaoru
    The Eyes of the Goddess...
[22:06] Kaoru
    see everything!

    poor folks, who can't afford medicine.
[02:14] Kaoru
    Blessings upon those with righteous hearts.
[02:17] Kaoru
    I know the truth, Abilly.
[02:19] Kaoru
    You've been giving food to the poor, right?
[02:21] Abilly
    Y-Yes...
[02:23] Kaoru
    That's how I found out about Amelie.
[02:25] Kaoru
    The Eyes of the Goddess don't miss anything.
[02:28] Abilly
    I see... So it's true...
[02:30] Abilly
    Good deeds really are repaid in kind.
[02:34] Abilly
    Oh, I'm so grateful!
[02:37] Kaoru
    I help people out using potions.
[02:39] Kaoru
    There are good people even
    among the rich and powerful,
[02:42] Kaoru
    and some of them need help, too.
[02:44] Kaoru
    Besides, if I want to find
    a patron in this city,
[02:48] Kaoru
    I can't avoid talking to influential people.
[02:50] Kaoru
    In which case...
[02:52] Abilly
    So, what do I need to do?
[02:55] Abilly
    I hear you seek only meager
    offerings from poor folk...
[02:59] Abilly
    But I, Johan Abilly, will give you
    my entire fortune if you wish it!
[03:03] Kaoru
    All right, let's do this.
[03:05] Kaoru
    You can't reveal my true identity to anyone,
[03:07] Kaoru
    and if you get a request for help,
[03:09] Kaoru
    you must do everything you can to grant it.
[03:13] Abilly
    Is... that all?
[03:16] Kaoru
    Yes.
[03:17] Kaoru
    To secure both tangible and intangible help
[03:18] Kaoru
    from the powerful, all under
    the pretext of an offering...
[03:22] Kaoru
    That's the other goal of
    the work I'm doing now.
[03:25] Kaoru
    If I can help others,
    that's two birds with one stone.
[03:28] Kaoru
    It's a pretty wicked—I mean,
    well-executed scheme, if I do say so myself.
[03:33] Kaoru
    Oh, also...
[03:35] Kaoru
    May I take this?
[03:39] Kaoru
    Here. A little gift from my travels.
[03:43] Kaoru
    Share them equally between all of you, okay?
[03:48] Emil
    Kaoru...
[03:49] Kaoru
    What is it, Emil?
[03:51] Emil
    Hey, so...
[03:54] Emil
    Thanks... for everything.
[03:56] Kaoru
    You don't need to thank me.
[03:58] Kaoru
    You guys got me information on Amelie.
[04:01] Kaoru
    It's fair payment, don't you think?
[04:05] Emil
    Yeah... That's right!
[04:07] Emil
    We're the secret organization,
    Eyes of the Goddess, after all!
[04:11] Kaoru
    Yeah, uh, about that name...
[04:13] Emil
    Yes?
[04:15] Kaoru
    Can we drop it?
[04:16] Kids
    No way!
[04:18] Kaoru
    So as for how the secret organization,

    Eyes of the Goddess...
[04:22] Kaoru
    Oh, man, I'm embarrassed to even say it!
[04:25] Kaoru
    ...came to be, and how
    I ended up leading it...
[04:35] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Found you!
[04:39] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Stealing from a goddess...
[04:41] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Do you not value your own life, boy?
[04:44] (Flashback) Emil
    G-Goddess?
[04:46] (Flashback) Kaoru
    The next divine punishment
    won't be nearly this light.
[04:51] (Flashback) Emil
    Please forgive me!
[04:55] Kaoru
    The potion I hid in my money pouch
[04:57] Kaoru
    was one that temporarily
    causes pain and swelling.
[05:00] Kaoru
    The injury would've healed itself within days.
[05:03] (Flashback) Emil
    W-Wow!
[05:05] (Flashback) Kaoru
    So tell me. Why were you stealing?
[05:08] (Flashback) Emil
    Because... my friend, Belle, is in bad shape.
[05:13] (Flashback) Emil
    I wanted to at least get her good food—
[05:14] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Where?
[05:16] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Where is this Belle now?
[05:20] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Drink this.
[05:30] (Flashback) Emil
    Belle!
[05:31] (Flashback) Kids
    Belle!
[05:34] (Flashback) Kaoru
    You'll be okay now.
[05:36] (Flashback) Emil
    Belle!
[05:37] (Flashback) Emil
    I'm so glad! Isn't this great?
[05:39] (Flashback) Belle
    Yeah!
[05:41] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Everyone, line up!
[05:43] (Flashback) Kaoru
    I'm Kaoru, a friend of Celestine.
[05:47] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Some things happened, and now I'm
    living as a human in this world.
[05:51] (Flashback) Kaoru
    But as long as I'm here, I'd like to hand out
[05:54] (Flashback) Kaoru
    a few blessings to those
    with righteous hearts.
[05:57] (Flashback) Kaoru
    To do that, I need people
    to be my eyes and ears
[06:01] (Flashback) Kaoru
    to help me find people in need of help.
[06:04] (Flashback) Kaoru
    You'll be rewarded with healthy bodies
[06:07] (Flashback) Kaoru
    and enough food to keep yourselves alive.
[06:10] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Are you kids interested in helping me?
[06:13] (Flashback) Emil
    With pleasure!
[06:14] (Flashback) Kids
    Yes, ma'am!
[06:15] Kaoru
    That's how the secret organization,
    Eyes of the Goddess, was founded.
[06:19] Kaoru
    The kids' job is to carry out undercover
    intel operations in the city,
[06:23] Kaoru
    and I grant blessings based on
    the information they bring me.
[06:26] Kaoru
    The rumors of an angel sent by the
    goddess spread throughout the city.
[06:32] Kaoru
    It might finally be time to take the plunge.

[06:47] Asil
    Yes, my father is Viscount Leotar.

    Hmph. That's the least you deserve
    for wounding a maiden's heart.
[07:58] Kaoru
    Go ahead. Feel awkward.
[08:00] Abilly
    Wow, that looks great on you!
[08:03] Kaoru
    Abilly!
[08:08] Kaoru
    Thank you for giving me this
    beautiful dress to wear today.
[08:11] Abilly
    Please! I could barely do anything at all!
[08:14] Abilly
    By the way, where did those
    accessories come from?
[08:17] Abilly
    I didn't prepare any, since you didn't ask...
[08:20] Kaoru
    What?
[08:21] Abilly
    Look around. All the women are
    staring at you with obvious envy.
[08:29] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Come forth, potion!

    The potions I create appear in
    whatever container I imagine.
[08:36] Kaoru
    Oops. Did I go too far?

    Who are those people?

    All the ladies who wish to be considered

    They give him a gift, just like that,

    to get him to remember their names and faces.
[09:00] Kaoru
    I'm going over there for a bit.

[09:27] Kaoru
    Thank you for inviting me here today.
[09:31] Cedric
    Aren't you my youngest brother's...
[09:33] Kaoru
    Yes, I'm his friend.
[09:36] Kaoru
    Right?
[09:37] Asil
    Oh... yeah.
[09:38] Kaoru
    I'd like to give you a
    little gift as a greeting.
[09:44] Kaoru
    Could you call your servant,
     Calvin, out here?
[09:49] Cedric
    Why?
[09:51] Kaoru
    I've heard that Calvin
    once served as your guard.
[09:55] Kaoru
    But then, during a hunt,
[09:57] Kaoru
    he was badly injured protecting
    you from a gray bear's attack.
[10:02] Cedric
    Yes... My reckless actions got Calvin hurt.
[10:07] Cedric
    And he used to live for the sword...
[10:10] Kaoru
    Calvin, would you come over here, please?
[10:17] Cedric
    Come.
[10:26] Kaoru
    Ladies and gentlemen!
[10:28] Kaoru
    As you've just heard, Calvin here
[10:31] Kaoru
    is a loyal man who risked
    himself to protect his master.
[10:35] Kaoru
    And out of gratitude for his loyalty,
[10:38] Kaoru
    Master Cedric kept him at his
    side, despite his disability.
[10:41] Kaoru
    Any who believe these two men of righteous
    heart deserve the goddess's blessing,
[10:47] Kaoru
    please raise your hand.
[10:53] Kaoru
    Now, with your hands facing
    this way, make this wish:
[10:57] Kaoru
    May the goddess Celestine's
    blessing be with them!
[11:16] Kaoru
    Here. Drink this.

    My leg... It moves!
[11:42] Calvin
    I can move it!

    See?! I can move it!

    Would you like to join us for breakfast?

    W-Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!

[13:14] Asil
    Kaoru, what the heck was that
    thing you used to heal Calvin?
[13:17] Kaoru
    Oh, it's a power I received from the goddess.
[13:21] Kaoru
    I can make potions that heal people.
[13:24] Asil
    Potions... that heal people? But... how?

    Don't be so impatient, Serge.
[14:17] Roland
    The angel herself requested that we
    send no pick-up or accompaniment.
[14:23] Roland
    The angel has already blessed the royal
    family through the knight Francette.
[14:28] Roland
    I'm sure she'll—
[14:29] Guard
    Your Majesty, Viscount Leotar has requested
[14:32] Guard
    an urgent audience regarding
    your meeting with the girl.
[14:35] Roland
    Let him in!
[14:37] Leotar
    And that is what I know.
[14:39] Roland
    So you're saying the girl
    definitely came to the castle?
[14:43] Leotar
    Yes, but through the back
    gate used by commoners,
[14:47] Leotar
    and wearing a commoner's attire.
[14:49] Serge
    Why would she do that?
[14:51] Leotar
    Well, about that...
[14:54] Asil
    You came back without even seeing him?! Why?!
[14:58] Kaoru
    What was I supposed to do? The guard
    at the back gate wouldn't let me in.
[15:03] Asil
    That can't be right...
[15:05] Kaoru
    I live in this kingdom as a commoner.
[15:09] Kaoru
    So I thought I should see the
    king dressed just like this.
[15:13] Asil
    Wait, you went to the castle in that?!
[15:17] Kaoru
    Yes. I tried going in through the
    back gate reserved for commoners...
[15:23] Kaoru
    Of course, I knew they'd stop me.
[15:26] Kaoru
    I took advantage of that to make*
    sure they'd never summon me again.
[15:32] (Flashback) Guard
    That's not happening, little girl.
[15:34] (Flashback) Kaoru
    But I was ordered to come
    see him this morning.
[15:38] (Flashback) Guard
    Listen, kid. We commoners can't get into
    the castle without a permission form,
[15:42] (Flashback) Guard
    much less get an audience with the king!
[15:45] (Flashback) Kaoru
    What should I do? This is a problem.
[15:48] (Flashback) Guard
    But hey, I'm willing to let you
    inside for the right price.
[15:53] (Flashback) Kaoru
    But I don't have any money.
[15:56] (Flashback) Guard
    Well, then, you can give me something else.
[16:01] (Flashback) Guard
    Like maybe your...
[16:03] (Flashback) Kaoru
    No! I can't do that!
[16:06] (Flashback) Guard
    Come on, it's not that big a—
[16:09] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Please spare me!
[16:10] (Flashback) Kaoru
    I'll never think about getting
    into the castle again!
[16:13] (Flashback) Kaoru
    And I'll never listen to the orders of
    the king or anyone else of high rank!
[16:18] (Flashback) Kaoru
    While in this kingdom, I will
    only live as I deem fit!
[16:22] (Flashback) Kaoru
    I swear to the goddess!
[16:24] (Flashback) Guard
    Hey, now, there's no need to go that far...
[16:26] Kaoru
    Going that far is precisely
    what gives my words meaning,
[16:29] Kaoru
    you sexual-harassing guard!
[16:31] Serge
    So, she made a vow to the goddess...
[16:33] Serge
    and that's why she can't meet us?
[16:35] Leotar
    Yes, I'm sorry to say.
[16:38] Serge
    How could this be?
[16:39] Serge
    We can't call her to the castle
    or even give her orders?
[16:43] Kaoru
    Yes, in this world, a vow
    to the goddess is absolute.
[16:48] Kaoru
    Not even royalty can overturn it.
[16:52] (Flashback) Kaoru
    And that's why I won't
    be going to the temple.
[16:54] (Flashback) Salazan
    B-Blasphemy! You refuse to obey
    an order from the holy temple?!
[16:59] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Yes. As I just said, a vow
    to the goddess is absolute.
[17:05] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Besides, I'm not a citizen of this kingdom,
[17:09] (Flashback) Kaoru
    so I don't think I'm obligated to obey the
    orders of someone from a kingdom temple.
[17:14] (Flashback) Kaoru
    So please leave now,
    Mister Important Bishop Man.
[17:18] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Would you mind stepping aside?
     You're in my way.
[17:22] (Flashback) Salazan
    H-Have you no fear of divine punishment?!
[17:25] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Divine punishment? Oh, you mean...
SIGN    Something Like Nitroglycerin
[17:37] (Flashback) Kaoru
    ...something like that?
[17:39] Kaoru
    Divine punishment was dealt to the
    clergyman who messed with the angel.
[17:43] Kaoru
    That fact quickly made its way to the castle.
[17:47] Kaoru
    And then the fighting began...
[17:50] Leotar
    I'm bringing Kaoru to my home,
    where she will meet the king!
[17:55] Sherra
    No, no! The angel will be brought to
    the temple to speak with the bishop!
[18:02] Kaoru
    That's enough!
[18:04] Leotar
    Kaoru!
[18:05] Sherra
    Angel!
[18:08] Kaoru
    In the end, to stop the fighting,
[18:11] Kaoru
    the royal family
[18:12] Kaoru
    and the temple
[18:14] Kaoru
    both agreed to send representatives
    for a public inquiry.
[18:20] Kaoru
    We will now begin our
    question-and-answer session.
[18:24] Kaoru
    I have a question for all of you first.
[18:26] Kaoru
    I'm just a commoner.
[18:28] Kaoru
    Why did both of you want an audience with me?
[18:32] Serge
    I think it's obvious that the king
    would want to meet the angel.
[18:36] Kaoru
    Really? Why?
[18:38] Kaoru
    Even if I went to the castle,
    I'd have nothing to say,
[18:41] Kaoru
    nor anything to do there.
[18:43] Serge
    Huh? W-Well... don't you have some divine
    message or blessing from the goddess?
[18:49] Kaoru
    No, I don't.
[18:52] Roland
    But you granted a blessing to
    me through the knight Francette.
[18:57] Roland
    And that's not all.
    You've saved people in the capital.
[19:01] Kaoru
    Oh, right. This is the guy that
    woman knight gave the potion to.
[19:05] Kaoru
    That's why the castle responded so quickly.
[19:08] Roland
    Did you not come to this kingdom to bless it?
[19:12] Kaoru
    Huh? No, not at all.
[19:15] Kaoru
    I came to this kingdom purely by coincidence,
[19:18] Kaoru
    and I wouldn't specifically support
    just one country for no reason.
[19:22] Kaoru
    Besides...
[19:23] Kaoru
    Excluding people that Celes takes a
    particular liking to or interest in,
[19:28] Kaoru
    she wouldn't do something as laudable as
    interfering in individual people's lives.
[19:34] Kaoru
    Plus, I've already sworn that
    I wouldn't enter the castle.
[19:39] Sherra
    Then you really should come to our temple!
[19:42] Sherra
    At the goddess's side is exactly
    where an angel belongs!
[19:47] Kaoru
    No, I have no business
    with the temple, either.
[19:50] Sherra
    B-But as a fellow follower
    of the goddess Celestine,
[19:54] Sherra
    if you would pray for the people
    at the temple with all of us...
[19:59] Kaoru
    Huh? I'm not a follower of Celes.
[20:03] Sherra/Salazan
    Huh?
[20:04] Serge/Roland
    Huh?
[20:05] Abilly
    Huh?
[20:06] Kids
    Huh?
[20:06] All
    What?!
[20:09] Kaoru
    In my homeland, gods dwell in
    the seas, mountains, rivers...
[20:12] Kaoru
    In all things that bring
    blessings to the people.
[20:16] Kaoru
    That's the mainstream belief.
[20:18] Kaoru
    The goddess Celestine is
    just one of many gods.
[20:21] Kaoru
    That's how I perceive her.
[20:23] Salazan
    Th-Then what is your
    relationship to the goddess?
[20:28] Kaoru
    I'm just her friend.
[20:31] Kaoru
    Oh, and you all keep calling me an angel,
[20:36] Kaoru
    but it's not like I'm Celes's
    errand girl or anything.
[20:40] Kaoru
    We're friends who see each other as equals.
[20:42] Kaoru
    I'll continue to grant the goddess's
    blessing to those with righteous hearts,
[20:47] Kaoru
    but I'm doing that of my own will.
[20:50] Kaoru
    That's the vow I swore to the goddess.
[20:53] Kaoru
    So if anyone tried to use their authority
    or violence to force me to do anything...
[21:01] Kaoru
    Divine punishment would await them.
[21:06] Kaoru
    I can't say it all went according to plan,
[21:09] Kaoru
    but now neither the royal family
    nor the temple can touch me.
[21:13] Kaoru
    I'll be able to keep doing my
    work with the Eyes of the Goddess,
[21:17] Kaoru
    and I have friends I can rely on.
[21:21] Kaoru
    Excuse me, Priestess,
    but can I ask one question?
[21:24] Sherra
    Yes?
[21:26] Kaoru
    Why does that statue of the goddess
[21:29] Kaoru
    have such an ample chest?
[21:31] Sherra
    What?
[21:33] Kaoru
    The real goddess looks more...
    well, like me, really.
[21:38] Kaoru
    Ow!
[21:39] Kaoru
    Celes! Not so rough!
[21:41] Kaoru
    All I did was tell the truth!
[21:49] Roland
    That's definitely divine punishment!
[21:51] Roland
    I can see that you and the goddess
    see each other as equals!

[00:02] Kaoru
    Ah, it's so peaceful!
[00:06] Kaoru
    After that public inquiry,
[00:08] Kaoru
    both the royal family and the
    temple stopped bothering me.
[00:13] Man
    Hey there, Kaoru. Looking full
    of life today, as always.
[00:16] Woman
    Here's extra on the house.
[00:18] Kaoru
    All the people in town and at the workshop
[00:21] Kaoru
    treat me the same as they always have.
[00:23] Man
    Here ya go. Freshly cooked.
[00:25] Kaoru
    Thank you!
[00:27] Kaoru
    Kaoru is just Kaoru,
[00:29] Kaoru
    an ordinary girl who happens
    to be in the goddess's favor.
[00:35] Kaoru
    Or... I guess being Celestine's friend and
    having an OP skill means I'm not ordinary at all!
[00:45] Kaoru
    Anyway, now that things
    have finally settled down,
[00:48] Kaoru
    I'd like to start helping lots
    more people with my potions.
[00:53] Kaoru
    But there's only so much
    the kids and I can do alone.
[00:58] Kaoru
    I'd really like to have an
    influential ally that I can trust.
[01:15] Francette
    Oh! My goddess!
[01:17] Kaoru
    What long-lived manga is this?!
[01:20] Francette
    I-It's me, the knight Francette!
[01:23] Kaoru
    Francette?
[01:25] Francette
    We met in the forest some time ago!
[01:28] Francette
    You gave me the goddess tears!
[01:31] Kaoru
    Oh! The woman knight... Wait...
[01:34] Kaoru
    What?!
SIGN    I'll Use the Goddess's Potions to Do Business!
[03:10] Francette
    So that's the story.
[03:11] Francette
    I look like this now thanks to
    the goddess tears you gave me.
[03:15] Francette
    I really don't know how to thank you!
[03:18] Kaoru
    I've got the gist of how
    things led to this point...
[03:21] Kaoru
    But I can't believe you
    actually changed this much.
[03:27] Kaoru
    Leave it to the mysterious workmanship
    of a higher being akin to a god.
[03:32] Francette
    Huh?
[03:33] Kaoru
    Oh, just talking to myself.
[03:34] Francette
    Uh-huh...
[03:36] Kaoru
    That aside, she seems sincere,
    her eyes are intelligent,
[03:41] Kaoru
    and to top it all off, she serves
    a count's household.
[03:44] Kaoru
    This might be perfect.
[03:46] Kaoru
    Dame Francette, I'd like
    to ask a favor of you.
[03:50] Kaoru
    Would it be possible for me to secretly
    make contact with the count you serve?
[03:55] Francette
    Y-Yes! Right away, if the
    goddess herself wishes it!
[04:00] Kaoru
    That'd be great.
[04:01] Francette
    Except...
[04:03] Francette
    I left the count's household and now
    serve as a guard for someone else.
[04:09] Kaoru
    Someone else?
[04:12] Kaoru
    That's "someone else"?!
[04:14] Kaoru
    The king's brother, Roland.
[04:17] Kaoru
    Right after I said in public that I wouldn't
    bend to the will of royalty or the temple...
[04:22] Kaoru
    This could be trouble...
    not to mention awkward.
[04:28] Roland
    M-My reason for coming here today
[04:31] Roland
    is not to force you to do anything.
[04:34] Roland
    But if the one Fran and I owe
    so much to wants a favor,
[04:38] Roland
    I'm happy to help grant it.
[04:40] Roland
    That's all.
[04:42] Roland
    Given our positions, I will
    have to inform Serge of this,
[04:45] Roland
    but I will let no one
    else know. Please trust me.
[04:49] Francette
    Prince Roland is not the
    sort of man who would lie.
[04:54] Kaoru
    Right... Well, having the king's brother
    among this group might work in my favor.
[05:00] Kaoru
    He seems like he'd try to shut out
    anyone trying to start trouble,
[05:04] Kaoru
    like nobles... or nobles... or nobles.
[05:08] Kaoru
    Very well.
[05:09] Kaoru

    Abilly...
[05:13] Kaoru
    Prince Roland...
[05:15] Kaoru
    Francette...
[05:17] Kaoru
    And myself.
[05:18] Kaoru
    These will be the members
    of our secret organization.
[05:22] Kaoru
    From now on, no calling
    me "goddess" or "angel."
[05:26] Kaoru
    Just call me by my name.
[05:30] Kaoru
    Now...
[05:31] Kaoru
    It's conspiracy time!
SIGN    Meyer Workshop
[05:35] Bardot
    Wow...
[05:37] Bardot
    Would you look at that?
[05:39] Bardot
    Never thought I'd see you guys cleaning.
[05:42] Asil
    Thanks to Kaoru, we can
    at least manage this mu—
[05:46] Brian
    Exactly. Kaoru's scary
    when she's mad... uh...
[05:49] Carlos
    I actually put the socks I've been
    wearing for a week in the wash now.
[05:54] Alban
    Three days for the underwear!
[05:56] Bardot
    Change those every day.
[05:59] Fernand
    Is anyone there?
[06:00] Bardot
    Yes, welco—
[06:05] Adan
    Now, when you say "conspiracy"...
[06:08] Kaoru
    I mean the sale of healing potions.
[06:10] Francette
    Are "potions" like the ones you gave us?
[06:14] Abilly
    And the one that cured my daughter's illness?
[06:16] Kaoru
    Yes.
[06:17] Kaoru
    But first, I want to ask a favor.
[06:20] Kaoru
    As you've probably heard from Francette,
[06:22] Kaoru
    it's true that I'm a friend
    of the goddess Celestine.
[06:26] Kaoru
    But right now, I'm enjoying
    life in this world as a human.
[06:31] Francette
    Then... the story of you being
    a goddess from another world...
[06:35] Kaoru
    Yes. I'd like you to keep it secret.
[06:38] Kaoru
    Please just say I'm an ordinary human
    who's borrowed a bit of healing power.
[06:45] Ada/Abilly
    Got it.
[06:45] Roland
    Very well.
[06:45] Francette
    All right.
[06:47] Kaoru
    I have no intention of backing
    any one group over another.
[06:50] Kaoru
    That said, I do want to spread
    blessings as widely as I can,
[06:55] Kaoru
    so I'd like your help...
[06:57] Kaoru
    with selling healing potions.
[06:59] Kaoru
    Its effects are quite weaker and more
    limited than those of the goddess tears,
[07:04] Kaoru
    but to make up for that,
    I'll sell it cheaper.
[07:07] Kaoru
    I want common folks who are sick,
[07:09] Kaoru
    as well as injured hunters and soldiers,
     to use them without worry.
[07:14] Kaoru
    Also, its effects disappear if
    it's not used within five days.
[07:17] Kaoru
    This prevents stockpiling and wartime use.
[07:20] Kaoru
    So I did put a few limitations on it...
[07:23] Adan
    No, it's still absolutely splendid!
[07:26] Adan
    Even if the people can't directly
    receive the goddess's blessing,
[07:29] Adan
    this will at least give so many of them
    a chance to experience even a drop of it!
[07:34] Roland
    And it's absolutely correct
    to prevent wartime usage.
[07:38] Roland
    The Empire of Aligot, a military state,
    is just over the mountains to our west.
[07:43] Francette
    If it loses its effect in five days,
[07:44] Francette
    it would never get to the
    Empire of Aligot in time.
[07:47] Abilly
    You can count on the Abilly Company
     for your sales channel!
[07:50] Kaoru
    Thank you.
[07:51] Adan
    Goddess—I mean, Kaoru, helping
    you is worthwhile to all of us.
[07:56] Abilly
    That's right! It's an honor
    to be on your team, Kaoru!
[08:01] Francette
    Say, why don't we come up
    with a name for this group?
[08:05] Francette
    How about "Goddess Light"?
[08:08] Kaoru
    Huh? Really, you don't have to give all
    the things I do such overblown names...
[08:12] Hector/Eunice
    We like it!
[08:14] Roland
    It sounds good to me.
[08:15] Abilly
    Fantastic!
[08:16] Adan
    The majority has spoken.
    "Goddess Light" it is!
[08:20] Kaoru
    I've been overruled.
[08:22] Hector
    And secret organizations
    always have a password!
[08:25] Kaoru
    Huh?!
[08:25] Hector
    Like, I say "po," and you say "tion"!
[08:27] Eunice
    Or "Three cheers for the goddess"!
[08:29] Adan/Abilly
    Good idea!
[08:30] Kaoru
    Please don't! Not that!
[08:32] Francette
    "Goddess of hanging eyes," maybe?
[08:34] Roland
    I think you're going for "flat chest."
[08:37] Kaoru
    Did you two just say something?!
[08:41] Kaoru
    That conspiratorial meeting sure was fun.
[08:44] Kaoru
    And we made Eyes of the Goddess
    an auxiliary organization.
[08:47] Kaoru
    Pretty soon, I should be
    able to pay all those kids.
[08:50] Kaoru
    Everything's going great!
[08:52] Asil
    Kaoru!
[08:55] Kaoru
    Oh, Asil. What is it?
[08:57] Asil
    Someone's asking for you!
[08:59] Kaoru
    A representative from the temple again?
[09:01] Kaoru
    Just go ahead and turn them down.
[09:03] Asil
    Actually, he's saying you
    came from his country,
[09:06] Asil
    and he's insisting on seeing you!
[09:09] Kaoru
    His country? It couldn't be...
[09:12] Fernand
    At last... At last, I'll see Kaoru!
[09:15] Allan
    Can you believe she was in the
    Kingdom of Balmore all this time?
[09:18] Allan
    And she apparently took on both the
    royal family and the temple, and won.
[09:22] Fernand
    That must make it even more difficult
    for her to remain in Balmore.
[09:25] Fernand
    I will take Kaoru back to the Kingdom
    of Brancott, no matter what!
[09:29] Fabio
    Fernand, try not to come off as too
    overbearing right from the start.
[09:32] Fabio
    Start with an apology, and keep
    your interactions friendly.
[09:36] Fernand
    I know.
[09:40] Fernand

[09:48] Kaoru
    Hm?
[09:50] Kaoru
    Oh! You must be...
[09:52] Kaoru
    acquainted with my little sister, then!

    Is she doing well?
[10:18] Fernand
    Er... I, uh...
[10:20] Fernand
    I can't tell her she got

    Wait, don't tell me...
[10:26] Kaoru
    Are either you... or you...
[10:28] Kaoru
    the man in my sister's life?
[10:31] Fernand
    Why one of these two?!
[10:33] Kaoru
    Well, because they're her type.
[10:36] Kaoru
    An intelligent, sincere-looking man...
[10:39] Kaoru
    or a reliable-looking man
    who seems fun to be with.
[10:43] Kaoru
    And you both look like you
    would age so gracefully.

    U-Um, would you like to come back

    You could live with your sister.
[11:13] Kaoru
    I can't do that.
[11:15] Kaoru
    As you may know, I have the power to heal,
[11:19] Kaoru
    and my sister has remarkable
    intellect and talent.
[11:23] Kaoru
    That's exactly why we were being chased.
[11:27] Kaoru
    If we were both in the same country,
[11:29] Kaoru
    it would throw off the balance between
    nations and give rise to conflicts.
[11:33] Kaoru
    I don't want to have to run away again.
[11:36] Kaoru
    Sob, sob...
[11:36] Fernand
    N-Not to worry.
[11:37] Fernand
    I'll make sure nothing like that happens.
[11:40] Fernand
    For now, just come back with me to—
[11:42] Bardot/Carlos/Alban/Brian
    Stop right there!
[11:44] Bardot
    Kaoru is our helper, and she's
     very important to us!

    I don't care if you're the neighbor
    kingdom's prince! You can't have her!

    If you want to take Kaoru back
    with you, you'll have to beat us first!

    So on that note, thank you so
    much for stopping by today.

    Let's go.
[12:17] Allan
    Sorry for bothering you!
[12:21] Allan
    Hey, you really think that was her sister?
[12:24] Fabio
    Even if that girl was Kaoru
    herself and not a sister,
[12:28] Fabio
    two things are clear now.
[12:30] Fabio
    One: Kaoru has no intention of
    returning to the Kingdom of Brancott.
[12:34] Fabio
    Two: Kaoru has no interest
    in Fernand whatsoever.
[12:39] Fernand
    N-No...

    I won't give up on Kaoru!
[12:44] Kaoru
    Whew, what a relief!
[12:47] Kaoru
    I doubt they'll every try to pester me again.
[12:49] Asil
    I wasn't sure how that was gonna end.
[12:51] Bardot
    But you know, I didn't realize
    you had a younger sister.

    Within four days, we'll be able to deliver
    just about anywhere in the kingdom.

[14:17] Kaoru
    the offenders and their families, relatives,
    friends, and everyone associated with them

    We can't do that.

    Speaking of the Kingdom of Brancott,
[15:14] Francette
    were you aware that its first prince
    sneaked into our kingdom the other day?
[15:18] Roland
    Yes, Kaoru told me.
[15:21] Roland
    One misstep, and that could have
    been a major diplomatic issue...
[15:25] Francette
    I don't think it would have been a problem,
[15:28] Francette
    since our kingdoms are friendly, but...
[15:30] Roland
    Right.
[15:32] Roland
    At any rate, nothing beats peace.
SIGN    The Military Empire of Aligot
[15:38] Emperor
    A healing medicine whose
    effects last only five days?
[15:40] Emperor
    It sounds as if they deliberately planned
    this to keep it out of our hands.
[15:45] Emperor
    How dare they?!
[15:47] Emperor
    Well, no matter.
[15:48] Emperor
    We simply need to make it
    here in the empire ourselves.
[15:51] Emperor
    Then we can use all we need in war,
[15:54] Emperor
    and we will be guaranteed complete
    supremacy over the other nations!
[15:57] Chancellor
    Invade the Kingdom of Balmore!
[16:00] Chancellor
    We must get our hands on the angel girl!
[16:02] Soldiers
    Yes, sir!
[16:07] Emil
    Wow! What a big house!
[16:09] Belle
    It even has a yard!
[16:11] Kaoru
    Starting today, this is your house, guys.
[16:14] Emil
    What? Really?
[16:15] Kaoru
    Of course.
[16:16] Kaoru
    You do all kinds of work for
    me in Eyes of the Goddess.
[16:20] Kaoru
    And I'll be needing you all to
    start doing regular work, too.
[16:24] Kaoru
    We're going to be busy.
[16:25] Kids
    Okay!
[16:29] Kaoru
    I'd like you to make this.
[16:31] Asil
    Sure, but what are you going to use it for?
[16:46] Emil
    Welcome! Step right up! Tasty stuff here!
[16:49] Belle
    Thank you for waiting!
[16:57] Guy
    This is good!
[16:59] Asil
    I never would've guessed it'd be used
    for making delicious food like this!
[17:03] Kaoru
    You need to be able to calculate change, too.
[17:06] Kaoru
    I'm gonna drive all the
    business skills into you!
[17:08] Kids
    Please do!
[17:09] Kaoru
    Ahem.
[17:11] Kaoru
    Repeat after me!
[17:13] Kaoru
    If a customer is rude to you,
    be ten times as rude back!
[17:16] Kids
    If a customer is rude to you,
    be ten times as rude back!
[17:19] Kaoru
    Don't trust anyone who says,
[17:22] Kaoru
    "Hey, just between us," and blabs
     other people's secrets!
[17:25] Kids
    Don't trust anyone who says,

[17:36] Father

[17:39] Kaoru
    Give the child these tears of the goddess.
[17:42] Mother
    I don't know who you are,
    but thank you so much!
[17:48] Kaoru
    They didn't recognize me.
[18:02] Kaoru
    Isn't that yesterday's...
[18:04] Emil
    She has no idea that everyone knew.
[18:07] Belle
    Looks like it.
[18:12] Kaoru
    This is going perfectly!
[18:14] Kaoru
    I'm really getting closer to my ideal.
[18:17] Kaoru
    A safe, worry-free life in another
    world where I can freely help people!
[18:21] Kaoru
    All that's left is to find a husband...
[18:25] General
    Your Majesty! The Empire is on the move!
SIGN    Kingdom of Balmore, Castle
[18:27] Serge
    What?! So they're finally taking action, huh?
[18:30] Serge
    Well? Which direction are they invading from?
[18:32] Serge
    Through the Kingdom of Aseed,
    or via the Holy Land of Rueda?
[18:36] General
    A-Actually...
[18:38] General
    They're crossing the mountains
    to enter this kingdom directly!
[18:42] Serge
    What?!
[18:45] MinisterA
    They have 30,000 men,
[18:46] MinisterA
    but nearly 10,000 of them
    are transport personnel.
[18:50] MinisterB
    A force of 20,000, and no mounted cavalry?
[18:53] MinisterC
    If they're crossing the mountains,
[18:54] MinisterC
    it will take a long time
    to get that many men here.
[18:58] Serge
    How many men can we spare to counterattack?
[19:00] MinisterD
    Forty thousand.
[19:02] MinisterD
    And since we're in our own home territory,
[19:04] MinisterD
    we have the advantage in
    terms of supplies, as well.
[19:05] MinisterD
    And unlike the enemy, we can use carriages.
[19:08] Roland
    We have an overwhelming advantage...
[19:11] Roland
    But something doesn't feel right.
[19:14] Officer
    Message!
[19:14] Officer
    Imperial forces invading from our
    border with the Holy Land of Rueda!
[19:18] Officer
    They number approximately 20,000!
[19:19] Serge
    What?!
[19:20] Serge
    Why?!
[19:21] Serge
    The Holy Land of Rueda is a
    neutral nation! What's going on?!
[19:27] MinisterB
    Emissaries from the Holy Land
     of Rueda have arrived.
[19:30] MinisterB
    They say they wish to assume custody
    of the girl who has the goddess's favor
[19:33] MinisterB
    and remove her from this city
    before it becomes a battlefield.
[19:37] Serge
    Should we refuse and turn them away?
[19:41] Roland
    No.
[19:42] Roland
    Let them meet with Kaoru.
SIGN    Ah! Angel!
SIGN    It is an honor to meet you!
[19:51] Kaoru
    I'm not Celes's errand girl
    or anything, you know.
SIGN    No, no!
SIGN    The one who conveys the words of the goddess Celestine
SIGN    is the goddess's angel!
SIGN    The Empire of Aligot is advancing upon the Kingdom of Balmore.
SIGN    We would like you to come with us to the Holy Land of Rueda
SIGN    so that we may protect you.
[20:14] Kaoru
    It's the Holy Land that's
    behind the attack, isn't it?
[20:18] Kaoru
    I mean, if they advanced via the
    northwest region of the Holy Land,
[20:21] Kaoru
    why didn't the Holy Land send word
    to this city, in the southeast?
[20:27] Kaoru
    You came here in a heavy,
    elaborately-decorated carriage,
[20:30] Kaoru
    yet you got here before the
    fastest horses. How could that be?
[20:34] Kaoru
    If the Imperial army is
    invading us this quickly,
[20:38] Kaoru
    it means the Holy Land made
    no attempt to stop them.
[20:41] Kaoru
    How do you explain that?
[20:43] Kaoru
    It's strange that you didn't request
    backup from other countries, too.
SIGN    Er... Th-That is...
[20:49] Kaoru
    In other words, the Holy Land of Rueda
[20:52] Kaoru
    is an ally of the Empire of Aligot.
[20:54] Kaoru
    You're in on it, aren't you?
[20:58] Kaoru
    Could you put out word to the other nations?
[21:00] Kaoru
    Tell them the Holy Land of Rueda
    has betrayed the goddess Celestine
[21:03] Kaoru
    and abandoned its neutrality.
SIGN    Wha... That's nonsense!
[21:08] Kaoru
    Oh? Didn't you say I'm the angel who
    conveys the words of the goddess?
[21:14] Kaoru
    Infiltrating an enemy nation,
    spreading false information,
[21:17] Kaoru
    and attempting to abduct a key individual...
[21:21] Kaoru
    Is it espionage?
[21:22] Kaoru
    Or sabotage?
[21:30] Kaoru
    Honestly, the way the Holy Land of
    Rueda does things just makes me so mad.
[21:34] Roland
    I'm the one who gave you that
    information, but still...
[21:36] Roland
    You sure are ruthless.
[21:38] Kaoru
    Huh?
[21:40] Kaoru
    I haven't even begun to be ruthless yet.
[21:45] Kaoru
    Anyway, take care of that
    communication and whatnot.
[21:48] Kaoru
    I have something I need to do.
[21:51] Roland
    What are you going to do?
[21:53] Kaoru
    Go out for a little bit, I think...
[21:57] Kaoru
    to crush the Imperial army.
[22:03] Roland
    Why do such evil expressions
    suit her so well?

[00:01] Kaoru
    Go out for a little bit, I think...
[00:04] Kaoru
    to crush the Imperial army.
[00:08] Kaoru
    So on that note...
[00:09] Kaoru
    I'll be going out for a bit.
[00:10] Kaoru
    If anything happens, take those and
    the money you've saved, and run away.
[00:15] Kaoru
    Unlike the ones we sell,
    they work on any injury or illness,
[00:19] Kaoru
    and they don't expire.
[00:20] Kaoru
    Okay, hold the fort for me.
[00:25] Kids
    We'll go with you!
[00:27] Kaoru
    Huh?
[00:28] Kaoru
    No, I'm going to take on
    an Imperial army of 20,000.
[00:32] Kaoru
    I might actually die.
[00:33] Emil
    That doesn't scare us.
[00:35] Emil
    If you hadn't helped us back then,
     Belle would have died.
[00:39] Emil
    The others might not even
    be here today, either.
[00:42] Emil
    The city treated us like trash,
[00:45] Emil
    but you gave us food, clothes,
[00:47] Emil
    and a house where we could sleep safely!
[00:49] Belle
    You were kind to us!
[00:52] Lolotte
    You taught us how to make money!
[00:54] Lucy
    And business manners
    and how to count change, too!

    Why did you bring children?!
[01:18] Kaoru
    Why did you bring royals?!
[01:21] Roland
    We're coming with you to protect you!
[01:21] Kaoru
    Just stay in the office and out of my way!
[01:24] Roland
    I was opposed to this in the first place!
[01:34] Roland
    Honestly, what is Kaoru thinking?
[01:37] Francette
    Couldn't one ask the same question about you?
[01:40] Francette
    Danger accompanies us on this expedition.
[01:42] Francette
    If anything were to happen to you...
[01:45] Roland
    I'll be fine.
[01:46] Roland
    I have a very skilled knight
    in my service. Right?
[01:52] Roland
    Besides...
[01:54] Roland
    That medicine of hers saved me.
[01:57] Roland
    I was able to reclaim a life
    I had once given up on.
[02:02] Francette
    That's true for me, as well.
[02:04] Roland
    Huh? What had you given up on?
[02:08] Francette
    N-Nothing! Nothing at all!
[02:12] Kaoru
    Operation: Intercept the Empire of Aligot.
[02:15] Kaoru
    This is the one time I won't
    be stingy with my power.
[02:19] Kaoru
    I wasn't expecting to have
    this many people along,
[02:22] Kaoru
    but I never had any intention
    of risking any lives.
[02:26] Kaoru
    If it comes to it, I always
    have my last resort,
[02:28] Kaoru
    the deadly move I call "No Self-Restraint."
[02:31] Kaoru
    This is the plan I've come up with.
[02:34] Kaoru
    We'll head from the capital to
    the Holy Land of Rueda's border.
[02:37] Kaoru
    We'll best-guess the enemy's route
[02:39] Kaoru
    and trace it backwards.
[02:41] Kaoru
    We probably have eight days before
    we encounter the enemy army.
[02:45] Kaoru
    Once we get past the few towns
    in the vicinity of the capital,
[02:47] Kaoru
    we'll enter remote lands with
    only occasional small villages.
SIGN    7 Days Later
[02:56] Kaoru
    In every village we pass through,
[02:58] Kaoru
    we stock up on the bare minimum of things
    we need and all the food we can get,
[03:01] Kaoru
    and direct the villagers
    to evacuate for a while.
[03:04] Kaoru
    I use potions to heal those who
    are too sick or injured to move.
[03:08] Kaoru
    And...
[03:09] Emil
    We checked out the village's
    wells and other water locations.
[03:13] Emil
    There are six in all.
[03:15] Kaoru
    Good work.
[03:16] Emil
    I'm gonna go help the others.
[03:19] Francette
    We've made arrangements to evacuate
    the villagers and transport the food.
[03:23] Roland
    We let the chief know when
     to expect the enemy army.
[03:27] Roland
    He understands the water situation, too.
[03:29] Roland
    And we drilled into him that he needs to
    give all the villagers clear directions.
[03:34] Kaoru
    Thanks.
[03:35] Kaoru
    Considering the speed of the enemy's advance,
[03:38] Kaoru
    this will probably be the last
    village we're able to stop in.
[03:41] Roland
    Yes.
[03:43] Kaoru
    Okay, can you leave half of
    our guards here to make sure
[03:47] Kaoru
    this village doesn't fall before we return?
[03:50] Roland
    Understood.
[03:53] Kaoru
    Well...
[03:55] Kaoru
    Tomorrow's the day we actually
    face off against the enemy army.
[03:59] Kaoru
    I have no intention of losing, of course.
[04:17] Francette
    I've found the enemy army!
[04:23] Francette
    They're about two hours
    ahead of us, taking a break.
[04:27] Francette
    At the speed they're moving,
[04:28] Francette
    I estimate they'll arrive close
    to here in about six hours.
[04:31] Kaoru
    If it'd take them six hours
    to cover that distance...
[04:34] Kaoru
    Wait, you made it back here in just two?!
[04:37] Francette
    Yes!
[04:38] Francette
    I got a burst of energy from
    the healing potion you gave me!
[04:42] Francette
    I could start fighting right now!
[04:45] Kaoru
    How the heck is she so strong?
[04:47] Kaoru
    I lost track of how many potions
    I drank just to climb up this far...
[04:52] Kaoru
    Burp.
[04:53] Roland
    Okay, let's start making
    preparations at once.
[04:55] Kids
    Yeah!
[05:06] Roland
    I knew it.
[05:07] Kaoru
    What?
[05:08] Roland
    That man there is most
    likely their commander.
[05:12] Roland
    but the man next to him isn't military.
[05:14] Roland
    Those are the clothes of
    a holy man. He's a bishop.
[05:18] Francette
    Does that mean... he's from
    the Holy Land of Rueda?
[05:20] Roland
    They didn't just let the army pass through
    their land and conceal information.
[05:25] Roland
    They're working directly with the army.
[05:28] Francette
    Those dirty cowards!
[05:31] GuardA
    They're here!
[05:33] GuardA
    Their logistics unit will
    be passing by us shortly!
[05:44] Kaoru
    Okay, let's go!
[05:45] Roland/Guards
    Right!
[05:46] Kids
    Yeah!
[05:49] Kaoru
    Start throwing the white balls at
    the logistics unit's front and rear!
[06:00] Soldier
    We're under attack?! From where?!
[06:08] Kaoru
    Okay. We've diverted the enemy.
[06:11] Kaoru
    For safety, I reduced the trigger sensitivity
[06:13] Kaoru
    on the white balls we threw to confuse them.
[06:16] Kaoru
    They're filled with something
    resembling nitroglycerin.
[06:19] Kaoru
    And...
[06:20] Kaoru
    The red balls we'll be throwing
    at their supply carts
[06:23] Kaoru
    are basically like naphtha or napalm.
[06:25] Kaoru
    It ignites when it comes
    into contact with air,
[06:28] Kaoru
    and the flames don't extinguish easily,
    even if doused with water.
[06:31] Soldiers
    F-Fire's spreading from the carts!
[06:40] Commander
    Th-This is...
[06:42] Commander
    Go back!
[06:52] Aligot Soldier1
    Everything burned up in just moments.
[06:54] Aligot Soldier1
    Our food, water, spare armor,
     and even our weapons for the castle siege...
[06:59] Priest
    The devil's hellfire! Has our army been cursed?!
[07:03] Commander
    Don't be ridiculous!
[07:07] Commander
    Get all our remaining supplies together!
[07:09] Commander
    We continue our advance!
[07:11] Aligot Soldier1
    Yes, sir!
[07:12] Commander
    We'll just get more food and
    water from the village up ahead!
[07:17] GuardE
    Your Highness! I'm glad you're safe!
[07:19] Roland
    Yes. You all did fine work, as well.
[07:21] GuardE
    Thank you! We've already finished
    transporting all the villagers and food.
[07:26] Kaoru
    Then I guess it's time
    for the finishing touch.
[07:32] Kaoru
    A decisive strike on the
    enemy's logistics unit
[07:35] Kaoru
    and the elimination of their
    rear guard's food and equipment...
[07:39] Kaoru
    This was the first step in
    the plan I came up with.
[07:42] Kaoru
    And the second step is...
[07:49] Commander
    What?!
[07:50] Aligot Soldier2
    The first unit to arrive in the
    village drank the well water,
[07:53] Aligot Soldier2
    and immediately suffered
    stomach pain and diarrhea!
[07:56] Commander
    Damn it! They poisoned the wells!
[07:59] Aligot Soldier3
    Reporting, sir!
[08:01] Aligot Soldier3
    We've checked every house in the village,
[08:03] Aligot Soldier3
    but all the villagers are gone,
    along with the livestock and food!
[08:10] Commander
    At this rate...
[08:16] Kaoru
    They should be starting to feel it now.
[08:18] Roland
    The worst thing an army can
    experience is a water shortage.
[08:21] Roland
    In this heat, especially,
    it could be fatal within days.
[08:26] Tapani
    A-Angel!
[08:30] Kaoru
    Who are you?
[08:31] Tapani
    My name is Tapani. I'm from Milte Village.
[08:35] Roland
    Milte Village?
[08:36] Roland
    We were there this morning. All the
    residents should have been evacuated.
[08:40] Tapani
    I came back on my own.
[08:43] Tapani
    Angel, we're in trouble!
[08:45] Tapani
    The enemy took over our well!
[08:57] Roland
    We'll handle things here!
[08:59] Roland
    Kaoru, take the kids and get to the well!
[09:01] Kaoru
    Got it!
[09:03] Tapani
    It's this way.
[09:07] (Flashback) Roland
    A hidden well?
[09:09] (Flashback) Tapani
    Yes. There's an additional
    well in our village.
[09:12] (Flashback) Tapani
    The village has kept it strictly secret
[09:14] (Flashback) Tapani
    to ensure it won't dry up,
    even in the worst drought.
[09:17] (Flashback) Tapani
    That's why we couldn't tell you about it.
[09:20] (Flashback) Roland
    Then how does the Imperial
    army know about this secret?
[09:24] (Flashback) Tapani
    There were traitors in the village.
[09:26] (Flashback) Tapani
    I heard them talking
    while we were evacuating.
[09:30] (Flashback) Tapani
    They were going to sell the
    knowledge of our hidden well
[09:32] (Flashback) Tapani
    to the enemy for a cash reward.
[09:35] (Flashback) Kaoru
    That's why you came back
    all alone? To tell us this?
[09:40] (Flashback) Tapani
    Yes.
[09:41] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Why would you put yourself in such danger?
[09:44] (Flashback) Tapani
    Because Ginny...
[09:46] (Flashback) Tapani
    My sister, Ginny, was saved thanks
    to the goddess's medicine!
[09:53] Tapani
    The well is in there.
[09:58] Kaoru
    I'll go alone from here.
[10:00] Kaoru
    All of you, keep watch around the shed.
[10:11] SoldierD
    Who are you?!
[10:15] SoldierD
    Wait, are you the one who poisoned the wells?!
[10:19] Kaoru
    This isn't good.
[10:20] Kaoru
    If I set off an explosion in here,
    the enemies outside would notice.
[10:23] Kaoru
    Sulfuric acid? Hydrochloric acid?
[10:25] Kaoru
    No, it's all the same if they scream.
[10:27] Kaoru
    To take away their fighting
    strength in one instant...
[10:33] Kaoru
    Belle?
[10:34] Emil
    It's okay.
[10:36] Emil
    Belle can do this.
[10:37] SoldierC
    Hey, you!
[10:40] SoldierD
    Stupid brat!
[10:51] Emil
    I told you Belle could do it.
[10:55] Kaoru
    Why?! Why would she do that?!
[10:58] Emil
    You saved Belle's life.
[11:01] Emil
    The happiness she's had
    in the days since then,
[11:03] Emil
    to her, was worth offering up her life for.
[11:08] Emil
    And... we help and protect the goddess.
[11:13] Emil
    We're Eyes of the Goddess.
    That goes for Belle, too.
[11:21] Kaoru
    You fool.
[11:24] SoldierE
    Damn it, I can't see anything! It's too deep!
[11:27] SoldierC
    What do you think you're doing?!
[11:29] SoldierC
    How dare you cut off our army's lifeline?!
[11:34] SoldierD
    Stupid brat! I'll kill you first!
[11:39] Kaoru
    You're the ones who have to die.
[11:46] Kaoru
    My power...
[11:48] Kaoru
    is to make any potion I want
    appear in any form I want.
[11:53] Kaoru
    Which means I can create poison
    right inside someone's body.
[11:58] Kaoru
    I won't kill you.
[12:00] Kaoru
    I'll just make you feel
    the worst pain imaginable.
[12:04] Emil
    Belle! Belle!
[12:07] Emil
    Belle! Please be alive!
[12:09] Emil
    Belle!
[12:12] Belle
    Emil?
[12:17] Belle
    Wait... how? I jumped into
    the well... didn't I?
[12:23] Emil
    Belle!
[12:27] Kaoru
    I put her in my Item Box
    right at that moment.
[12:31] Kaoru
    Good thing no one realized
    they didn't hear a splash.
[12:35] Kaoru
    Emil, tell everyone this.
[12:38] Kaoru
    If you insist on offering your life to me,
[12:40] Kaoru
    I will not tolerate anyone rushing
    into death without my permission.
[12:44] Emil
    Okay!
[12:50] Roland
    Hey. We took care of everything here.
[12:52] Francette
    We gave the surviving war prisoners the
    bare minimum treatment with your potions.
[12:57] Kaoru
    Good work.
[13:01] Francette
    Those horses are spoils from the enemy army.
[13:10] Kaoru
    There you go.
[13:14] Kaoru
    Is everyone here?
[13:15] Roland/Francette
    Yes!
[13:17] Kaoru
    Then let's head for the capital!
[13:19] Kaoru
    Off we go!
[13:21] All
    Yeah!
[13:25] Kaoru
    And so we returned to the royal capital.
[13:28] Kaoru
    Of course, we put laxative potions in the
    water in every village we went through.
[13:35] Kaoru
    And this particular potion lasts ten days.
[13:40] Kaoru
    According to the birds,
[13:43] Kaoru
    what happened at the hidden well sent
    quite a shock through the Imperial army.
[13:48] Kaoru
    And just a handful of people
    annihilated their vanguard unit.
[13:52] Kaoru
    One of them, a female knight nicknamed
    "Fearsome Fran" with the strength of a demon,
[13:58] Kaoru
    struck terror into the hearts
    of the enemy soldiers.
[14:02] Roland
    Amazing as always.
[14:02] Francette
    Thank you.
[14:05] Kaoru
    Fearsome Fran, huh?
[14:15] Priest
    Oh, why won't the goddess
    bless the Holy Land of Rueda?
[14:21] Commander
    Just deal with it a little longer.
[14:23] Commander
    We'll arrive in the town of Nicotia tomorrow.
[14:26] Commander
    We can replenish our food and water there.
[14:29] Commander
    Once we get over that hill...
[14:42] Commander
    It can't be!
[14:52] Priest
    What's going on?!
[14:54] Priest
    Weren't they barricaded
    within the royal capital?!
[15:03] Roland
    The enemy commander has come
    forth to officially surrender!
[15:07] Francette
    Their army was already
    in no condition to fight.
[15:11] Roland
    I feel dirty, though.
[15:13] Kaoru
    So should we have fought them fair and
    square as proper knights or whatever,
[15:18] Kaoru
    resulting in thousands of war casualties?
[15:21] Roland
    Th-That's not what I...
[15:23] Kaoru
    Now, then...
[15:25] Kaoru
    You kids are done here. Head on
    back to your house in the capital.
[15:29] Emil
    What? But what about you?
[15:31] Kaoru
    I still have things I need to do.
[15:34] Emil
    Then I'll stay with you!
[15:35] Kids
    Me, too!
[15:37] Kaoru
    No. What did I tell you?
[15:39] Kaoru
    I won't allow anyone to just rush into death.
[15:42] Kaoru
    This time, someone could lose
    their head in one slice,
[15:45] Kaoru
    or be stabbed right in the heart.
[15:48] Kaoru
    I can't protect all of you on my own.
[15:51] Emil
    Are you saying we'd be in the way?
[15:53] Kaoru
    Yes. You kids aren't strong enough yet.
[15:58] Kaoru
    But don't misunderstand.
[16:01] Kaoru
    That doesn't mean you're useless.
[16:03] Kaoru
    Protect your house in the capital.
[16:06] Kaoru
    I want you to help me by doing
    what you can do right now.
[16:10] Emil
    All right.
[16:11] Belle
    Kaoru, make sure you come back to us!
[16:13] Kaoru
    I will. I promise.
[16:16] Emil
    Let's go home.
[16:17] Belle
    Okay.
[16:20] Roland
    So? What are you plotting now?
[16:23] Kaoru
    Huh? Nothing, really.
[16:25] Roland
    Kaoru.
[16:26] Francette
    Lady Kaoru.
[16:28] Kaoru
    Oh, just...
[16:31] Ed
    You saved my life, miss.
[16:33] Ed
    I, Ed, will accompany you anywhere.
[16:37] Kaoru
    I thought I'd take off on
    a solo journey to the west.
[16:40] Roland
    No!
[16:40] Francette
    I think not!
[16:47] Ed
    You've got a knack for this, miss.
[16:49] Ed
    It's only been a few days and
     you're riding like a natural.
[16:52] Kaoru
    Thanks, Ed.
[16:56] Ed
    And my leg feels light as a
    feather thanks to your potion.
[16:59] Ed
    Wanna just gallop straight
    to the battlefield from here?
[17:03] Kaoru
    No, don't make them do that.
[17:06] Roland
    What in the world is the
    deal with that horse's legs?
[17:10] Roland
    He never gets tired, and he
    could just keep running forever.
[17:13] Roland
    It's all we can do just to keep up with him.
[17:17] Francette
    Well, what can we say?
[17:19] Francette
    We did take it upon ourselves
    to join her on her solo journey.
[17:23] Francette
    Besides, there's a big difference
    between a rider traveling solo
[17:27] Francette
    and a large group marching together.
[17:29] Roland
    That's true.
[17:31] Roland
    But you know, that aside...
[17:33] Roland
    Can Kaoru actually talk to horses?
[17:35] Francette
    I don't know...
[17:37] Kaoru
    The mountain range to the west
    of the Kingdom of Balmore
[17:42] Kaoru
    has long been a natural wall preventing
    invasion from the neighboring Empire of Aligot.
[17:47] Kaoru
    But the existence of the goddess tears,
    a potion that heals all illnesses and injuries,
SIGN    Empire of Aligot, Palace
[17:53] Kaoru
    threw off the balance between the countries.
[17:57] Kaoru
    The Empire of Aligot, burning
    with territorial ambition,
[17:59] Kaoru
    finally decided to risk life and
    limb crossing the mountains...
[18:02] Kaoru
    and the Holy Land of Rueda, which longs
    for a miracle from the goddess,
SIGN    Holy Land of Rueda, Temple
[18:05] Kaoru
    took part in their invasion
    in the goddess's name.
SIGN    Kingdom of Balmore, Outpost
[18:09] Kaoru
    Long story short, I brought about this war.
[18:17] Soldiers
    It's Prince Roland!
[18:18] Soldiers
    And the knight Francette!
[18:19] Soldiers
    What an honor!
[18:20] Kaoru
    And if the fault lies with me,
[18:23] Kaoru
    I'm going to settle it once and for all.
[18:27] Kaoru
    Hello!
[18:30] Menneth
    The enemy forces number about 40,000,
[18:33] Menneth
    roughly the same as ours.
[18:35] Menneth
    The two forces are currently here,
    in the midst of a stand-off.
[18:40] Menneth
    I'd love to finish this quickly and get
    back to the capital to provide relief.
[18:45] Roland
    There's no need for that, General Menneth.
[18:48] Menneth
    Huh?
[18:50] Roland
    The enemy army of 20,000 advancing
    through the Holy Land of Rueda
[18:52] Roland
    surrendered before ever reaching the capital.
[18:56] Roland
    Our army suffered no casualties.
[18:58] Roland
    The capital has 15,000
    soldiers protecting it.
[19:00] Menneth
    Oh!
[19:02] Kaoru
    If I may... What happens if the
    enemy army learns about this?
[19:06] Menneth
    Um... Prince Roland, who is this young lady?
[19:11] Roland
    Her name is Kaoru.
[19:13] Roland
    Or perhaps she's more familiar to you as...
[19:17] Roland
    the goddess's friend.
[19:20] Kaoru
    Can you answer my question now?
[19:23] Menneth
    Even if the enemy army found out,
    I doubt they would withdraw.
[19:27] Menneth
    Their backroom dealings with Rueda and
    their surprise attack over the mountains
[19:31] Menneth
    are both tactics that can't be used twice.
[19:34] Menneth
    The Empire of Aligot is betting
    everything on this one move.
[19:38] Roland
    Either way, we can't avoid confrontation.
[19:42] Menneth
    Correct.
[19:43] Menneth
    On top of that, it will be a long time
    before they learn of their defeat at the capital.
[19:48] Menneth
    Even if the Empire sends a
    messenger through the Holy Land,
[19:51] Menneth
    it would take days for the emperor's orders
    to cross the mountains and reach them here.
[19:57] Kaoru
    Then why don't we tell them ourselves?
[20:01] Menneth
    But would they believe
    their enemy so readily?
[20:05] Kaoru
    Well, then...
[20:06] Roland
    Erk.
[20:08] Kaoru
    Let's dangle some tasty
    bait in front of them.
[20:12] Menneth
    Listen to me, men!
[20:14] Menneth
    Prince Roland, the king's brother,
    came to us from the capital last night!
[20:18] Menneth
    The enemy party advancing through
    the Holy Land is defeated!
[20:21] Menneth
    His Highness also brought us a
    massive supply of healing potions!
[20:25] Menneth
    The blessing of the goddess is with our army!
[20:32] Imperial General
    Do not falter! The future of the
    Empire rides on this battle!
[20:36] Imperial General
    Be prepared to fight to the death!
[20:39] Imperial General
    If the enemy army has potions,
[20:41] Imperial General
    we need only win and take them for ourselves!
[20:47] Roland
    The battle's begun.
[20:51] Kaoru
    Leave it to royalty.
    That was incredibly effective.
[20:55] Kaoru
    Just putting your name on that
    information made it more convincing.
[21:00] Roland
    Well, thanks...
[21:02] Kaoru
    While you're here, would you mind
    moving around some, as well?
[21:06] Kaoru
    Be conspicuous enough to
    draw the enemy's attention.
[21:10] Kaoru
    You're valuable to them, whether they
    defeat you or take you prisoner.
[21:18] Kaoru
    If the enemy is distracted by the prize in
    front of them and they leave themselves open,
[21:23] Kaoru
    it'll give us an even greater advantage.
[21:26] Roland
    Got it.
[21:28] Roland
    All of you! Listen to me!
[21:31] Roland
    I am Roland, the older brother
    of King Serge of Balmore!
[21:36] Roland
    If you wish to defeat me, come and try!
[21:38] Roland
    Show me why the Empire of Aligot prides
    itself on its military prowess!
[21:44] Roland
    Good! They fell for it!
[21:46] Roland
    Let's go!
[21:47] Guards
    Right!
[21:50] Kaoru
    Now all that's left is to watch
    what Prince Roland can do.
[21:54] Kaoru
    Might as well take a little break.
[21:56] Ed
    Say, miss...
[21:58] Kaoru
    What?
[21:58] Ed
    I might just be imagining it,
     but is the enemy...
[22:01] Ed
    ignoring Prince Roland and heading toward us?
[22:05] Roland
    Huh?!
[22:06] Kaoru
    What?!
[22:07] Kaoru
    Why?! What's going on?!
[22:09] Imperial General
    Our priority is securing the girl
    said to be loved by the goddess,
[22:13] Imperial General
    who is involved in the making
    of their healing potions!
[22:18] Imperial General
    Once you find her, prioritize
    her capture above all else!
[22:21] SoldierF
    A girl with black hair and black eyes,
[22:23] SoldierF
    with a face that's cute except
    for the mean look on her face!
[22:26] SoldierF
    That's definitely her!
[22:30] Kaoru
    What do I do? Set off an explosion and run?
[22:32] Kaoru
    No, that would draw more attention.
[22:34] Kaoru
    But I don't know if I can create
    poison inside this many people...
[22:38] Francette
    Lady Kaoru!
[22:46] SoldierF
    F-Fearsome Fran!
[23:00] Ed
    Miss!
[23:06] Roland
    Thank goodness... You're not hurt, are you?
[23:09] Kaoru
    Prince Roland!
[23:28] Roland
    Fran!

[02:10] Kaoru
    I am about to perform a
    very important ritual!
[02:13] Kaoru
    All of you, just keep quiet and stay put!
[02:16] Kaoru
    If you want to continue
    this war, do it after I'm done!
[02:22] Kaoru
    Knight Francette,
[02:23] Kaoru
    your continued hard work and valor
    in protecting your lord prove that,
[02:27] Kaoru
    as a knight, you have lived
     a praiseworthy life!
[02:30] Francette
    Lady... Kaoru...
[02:34] Kaoru
    But I'm sure you feel there's
    much left for you to do.
[02:37] Kaoru
    So I will give you a gift to take
    with you into your next life.
[02:43] Kaoru
    What would you like? Unrivaled wisdom?
[02:46] Kaoru
    Or an attractive appearance?
[02:48] Francette
    S-Strength...
[02:50] Francette
    The strength to protect my lord once more...
[02:56] Kaoru
    I had a feeling you'd say that.
[02:59] Kaoru
    A silly wish like that doesn't
    have to wait for your next life.
[03:02] Kaoru
    Make it come true in this one.
[03:13] Aligot SoldierA
    I-It's a miracle...
[03:15] Aligot SoldierB
    The rumors about an angel of
    the goddess were true.
[03:19] Francette
    Lady Kaoru.
[03:20] Kaoru
    A knight needs a sword.
[03:23] Kaoru
    I don't think that sword
    will be enough for you.
[03:33] Kaoru
    Knight Francette, I grant you title of
    Einherjar, guardian knight of the goddess,
[03:40] Kaoru
    and this holy blade, Exgram.
[03:45] Kaoru
    Carve a path to victory with this sword.
[03:49] Kaoru
    Now go forth, Einherjar—holy knight Francette!
[03:54] Francette
    I shall!
[04:04] Kaoru
    This sword is made of a special alloy.
[04:07] Kaoru
    The thickness of its forward
    edge is monomolecular,
[04:10] Kaoru
    and it uses its wielder's bioelectrical
    current as a power source
[04:13] Kaoru
    to vibrate at very high speeds, making
    it what you'd call a "vibro-blade."
[04:17] Kaoru
    But that's just the container's shape.
     Inside is a potion.
[04:20] Kaoru
    No other blade in the world even
    comes close to its sharpness.
[04:29] Kaoru
    Hm. Pretty apt name for something
    I came up with on the fly.
[04:35] Roland
    May I also...
[04:37] Kaoru
    Oh, for crying out loud... All right.
[04:40] Kaoru
    Here. You get the holy blade Exridill.
[04:44] Kaoru
    Each guard gets an Exhrotti, made with the
    power of a holy blade divided into four.
[04:53] Kaoru
    Why do guys always want this sort of thing?
[04:56] Kaoru
    They always buy wooden swords
    on school field trips, too.
[04:59] Kaoru
    Prince Roland.
[05:02] Kaoru
    You can't use that sword effectively
    if you're still wounded.
[05:06] Roland
    I am in your debt.
[05:08] Kaoru
    Make sure Fran doesn't get out of control.
[05:10] Roland
    No need to even ask! Let's go!
[05:13] Guards
    Yeah!
[05:14] Kaoru
    Oh, and I'll need you to return
    those swords to me later!
[05:22] Imperial General
    First that natural disaster, and now this?
[05:25] Imperial General
    What is going on here?
[05:29] Messenger
    Reporting!
[05:30] Messenger
    That explosion and the golden cloud
    were the work of the angel girl!
[05:35] Messenger
    Also, the angel not only
    resurrected Fearsome Fran,
[05:39] Messenger
    but she named her a holy knight
    and gave her a holy sword!
[05:43] Imperial General
    A h-holy sword?!
[05:48] Francette
    It's so light!
[05:50] Francette
    Like the wings of an angel!
[05:55] Aligot SoldierA
    Sh-She's not human!
[05:57] Aligot SoldierC
    A demon... She's a demon!
[05:59] Ed
    That was a pretty close call, miss.
[06:02] Kaoru
    Yeah. I was careless.
[06:04] Kaoru
    I had no idea the enemy had
    that much information about me.
[06:09] Kaoru
    This is war. There's no
    solution where nobody dies.
[06:13] Kaoru
    But I can end it as quickly as
    possible and minimize deaths.
[06:18] Kaoru
    So...
[06:30] Imperial General
    The wrath of the goddess...
[06:32] Imperial General
    So that girl is a follower of the goddess...
    no, she's the goddess herself!
[06:39] Imperial General
    We're retreating.
[06:45] Roland
    I don't think the Empire of Aligot
    will ever mess with our kingdom again.
[06:50] Francette
    The Holy Land of Rueda will lose
    its status as a neutral nation.
[06:54] Roland
    Yes.
[06:56] Roland
    Our messenger said the priest who was
    with the army invading the capital
[06:59] Roland
    told us all about their
    secret agreement with Aligot.
[07:02] Roland
    Apparently, he started talking the moment
    they gave him one of Kaoru's potions.
[07:09] Kaoru
    Wha...
[07:09] Kaoru
    Well, you know, I'd feel bad
    letting him be tortured and stuff,
[07:12] Kaoru
    so I just made a little potion that'd
    make him want to tell the truth.
[07:17] Kaoru
    Right, they don't have truth
    serums in this world, do they?
[07:20] Roland
    That's dirty.
[07:22] Francette
    How merciful you are!
[07:23] Francette
    I could serve no greater master!
[07:26] Francette
    I have been reborn.
[07:28] Francette
    "Fearsome Fran" is now the goddess's
    guardian knight Einherjar!
[07:33] Roland
    Uh, Fran, your master is...
[07:35] Francette
    I will take a leave of
    absence from your service!
[07:38] Francette
    I can serve none but Lady Kaoru now!
[07:43] Roland
    I see. I mean, that's fine, I guess.
[07:46] Kaoru
    By the way, Prince Roland...
[07:49] Kaoru
    Could you give me back the
    holy sword I lent you?
[07:52] Kaoru
    You're not a guardian knight of
    the goddess. You're just royalty.
[07:57] Roland
    Can't I keep it a little longer?!
[07:58] Kaoru
    No.
[08:01] Kaoru
    Thirty days after the Imperial
    Army fled in defeat,
[08:03] Kaoru
    a peace conference was held
    in Grua, the royal capital
SIGN    Kingdom of Balmore, Royal Capital Grua, Plaza, 30 Days Later
[08:06] Kaoru
    of the victorious Kingdom of Balmore.
[08:09] Kaoru
    It was attended by representatives from
    the three nations involved in the war:
[08:13] Kaoru
    King Serge from the Kingdom of Balmore,
[08:16] Kaoru
    the chancellor of the Empire of
    Aligot in the emperor's stead...
[08:20] Kaoru
    and from the Holy Land of Rueda,
    the Pope himself attended.
[08:25] Kaoru
    A peace conference would normally
    be conducted in private,
[08:28] Kaoru
    but this one was held in public.
[08:30] Kaoru
    This unusual spectacle drew many spectators
[08:33] Kaoru
    not only from the capital, but from
    the surrounding lands as well.
[08:36] Serge
    This peace conference will now begin.
[08:40] Serge
    For the aforementioned reasons,
[08:42] Serge
    the Kingdom of Balmore makes the following
    demands of the Empire of Aligot.
[08:46] Serge
    First, monetary compensation for the damages
    our nation suffered in this battle.
[08:52] Serge
    Second, ransom for prisoners, plus compensation
     for meals and medical treatment...
[08:58] Chancellor
    This is outrageous!
[08:59] Chancellor
    It was the Kingdom of Balmore that
    created the reason for this war!
[09:03] Chancellor
    You wrongly confined the
    angel within your own country
[09:06] Chancellor
    and monopolized all of her potions!
[09:09] Chancellor
    Our nation wanted to save the angel—
[09:11] Kaoru
    Uh, I'm not an angel or anything.
[09:14] Kaoru
    And I wasn't wrongly confined at all.
[09:18] Kaoru
    I'm only in this country because
[09:20] Kaoru
    I happened to decide to live
    here during my travels,
[09:23] Kaoru
    and my potions are available
    for purchase to everyone.
[09:26] Kaoru
    That includes our neighbors
    in Brancott, Aseed...
[09:29] Kaoru
    Oh, and...
[09:31] Kaoru
    I sold some to your Holy Land of Rueda, too.
[09:37] Kaoru
    I never regarded the Empire of
    Aligot with intentional hostility.
[09:41] Chancellor
    B-But our country has not
    received any at all...
[09:44] Kaoru
    That's an issue of shelf life.
[09:47] Kaoru
    Say the Kingdom of Balmore got upset
[09:49] Kaoru
    because we couldn't eat raw fish
    caught in the Empire of Aligot.
[09:52] Kaoru
    Would you want us declaring war over that?
[09:56] Kaoru
    Still, I know just saying
    that doesn't help you.
[09:59] Kaoru
    I'll try to improve them
    so they last a bit longer.
[10:03] Kaoru
    Besides, your financial situation is only
    going to get worse at this rate, right?
[10:07] Chancellor
    Well...
[10:08] Kaoru
    There is a way to do something about it.
[10:10] Kaoru
    Are you interested in
    hearing what I have to say?
[10:14] Kaoru
    The whole reason the Empire of Aligot
    started their war of conquest
[10:18] Kaoru
    was that its mountainous land was difficult
    to farm, so their only industry was fishing.
[10:24] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Come forth, potion shaped like Verny!
[10:29] (Flashback) Kaoru
    Expansion of farmland and the
    establishment of a key industry...
[10:34] (Flashback) Kaoru
    How can both of those be resolved?
[10:37] Kaoru
    That's it!
[10:39] Chancellor
    A large island to the west of our nation?
[10:42] Kaoru
    Yes. It has roughly the same
    amount of land as the Empire.
[10:45] Kaoru
    It's easier to farm and
     has mineral resources.
[10:50] Kaoru
    Aligot was not blessed with fertile land.
[10:53] Kaoru
    But is that really true?
[10:54] Kaoru
    Abundant forest resources
    could be used, for example...
[10:57] Kaoru
    to make ships like this one, could they not?
[11:02] Kaoru
    If you work on your shipbuilding
    technology and take to the seas,
[11:05] Kaoru
    you could obtain foreign
    goods through trading.
[11:08] Kaoru
    You could also take the initiative
     in developing the untouched western island.
[11:13] Chancellor
    Why would you share this with your enemy?
[11:16] Kaoru
    Because I don't want you starting
    any more disastrous wars.
[11:20] Kaoru
    If we forced you to pay
    massive reparations on top of all this,
[11:24] Kaoru
    your nation would become impoverished,
    and your citizens unhappy.
[11:27] Kaoru
    That would only lead to yet another war.
[11:31] Kaoru
    Which is why, King Serge...
[11:33] Serge
    Y-Yes?
[11:34] Kaoru
    Collect their reparations in installments.
[11:38] Serge
    Huh?
[11:39] Kaoru
    Even if it's only until the Empire's
    financial situation stabilizes.
[11:43] Kaoru
    Getting too greedy would be a bad look.
[11:46] Serge
    Y-You're right. I'll do my
    best to accommodate them.
[11:51] Chancellor
    I am grateful for your
    compassion, King of Balmore.
[11:57] Kaoru
    Okay, next up is these guys...
[12:02] Pope
    We're to pay the same amount in
    reparations as the Empire of Aligot?!
[12:05] Pope
    Hmph! Don't be ridiculous!
[12:08] Serge
    The priest we took hostage testified about
    your secret agreement with the Empire.
[12:12] Serge
    I have a written oath right
    here with his signature.
[12:14] Serge
    Your role in this invasion is quite clear.
[12:16] Pope
    Such documents are trivial to forge!
[12:19] Pope
    How dare you insult our Holy Land
    with this baseless slander?!
[12:23] Pope
    I demand a retraction and an apology!
[12:29] Kaoru
    Really? But it's all true, isn't it?
[12:33] Kaoru
    I saw that priest from Rueda marching
    with the Aligot army with my own eyes!
[12:37] Pope
    Wh-What did you say,
    you servant of the devil?!
[12:40] Kaoru
    Wait, what? Didn't you say
    I was an angel of the goddess?
[12:45] Kaoru
    That's why you lent your
    aid in this war, isn't it?
[12:49] Kaoru
    In hopes of making the
    Holy Land more powerful,
[12:51] Kaoru
    you wanted to "safeguard" me
     in your country against my will,
[12:54] Kaoru
    winning a monopoly on the sale
    of my potions in the process.
[12:58] Kaoru
    Is that not correct, Your Holiness?
[13:02] Pope
    Enough!
[13:03] Pope
    In that case, I will use the Holy Land's
    secret treasure to prove our righteousness
[13:08] Pope
    and destroy the devil's servant who
    misrepresents herself as an angel!
[13:13] Pope
    This is the secret treasure the
    goddess Celestine bestowed upon us
[13:16] Pope
    when she blessed the
    Holy Land with her miracle!
[13:19] Pope
    The sacred object she entrusted us to use
    if our country ever faced another crisis,
[13:24] Pope
    which calls the goddess herself
    to descend upon our realm!
[13:27] Pope
    Behold the goddess's miracle!
[13:29] Pope
    Our Holy Land of Rueda is a
    nation blessed by the goddess,
[13:33] Pope
    and we are her blessed people!
[13:46] Pope
    Goddess Celestine! Thank you for
    gracing us with your presence!
[13:49] Celestine
    Where is the distortion?!
[13:51] Pope
    Eh?
[13:52] Celestine
    I said, where is the distortion?!
[13:56] Kaoru
    Hey, Celes. Long time no see.
[13:58] Celestine
    Oh, Kaoru! I didn't expect to see you here.
[14:01] Celestine
    Wait, this isn't the time for that!
[14:03] Kaoru
    There is no distortion.
[14:05] Celestine
    Huh?
[14:05] Kaoru
    That guy just wrongfully
    used the emergency crystal ball
[14:08] Kaoru
    to summon you in hopes
    of saving his own skin.
[14:11] Celestine
    Say what?
[14:12] Kaoru
    After all, the Holy Land of
    Rueda is blessed by the goddess,
[14:16] Kaoru
    and its people are better than everyone
    else because they're blessed.
[14:19] Kaoru
    Seems he wanted to tell the rest of
    us to shut up and bend to his will.
[14:23] Celestine
    Huh? I don't follow.
[14:25] Pope
    G-Goddess?
[14:27] Celestine
    I've never given any special
    blessings to any one nation.
[14:32] Pope
    B-But when you descended
    in our country before,
[14:36] Pope
    you gave us this crystal ball.
[14:38] Celestine
    Oh, that?
[14:39] Celestine
    I give those out in every location
    where I fix a distortion.
[14:44] Celestine
    In any case,
[14:46] Celestine
    I think this is the second time I've
    been summoned over something so silly.
[14:50] Kaoru
    What happened the first time?
[14:52] Celestine
    I was so irritated, I destroyed
    the entire country.
[14:56] Celestine
    I even accidentally destroyed
     the surrounding countries.
[15:01] Kaoru
    Uh, total annihilation seems a bit crude...
[15:04] Kaoru
    Please don't do that this time, okay?
[15:06] Celestine
    Well, okay, if you're the one asking.
[15:10] Celestine
    But you there!
[15:13] Celestine
    I have never once blessed
    your country or your people,
[15:18] Celestine
    nor did I hand you a doctrine or
    acknowledge you as my followers.
[15:22] Celestine
    I hereby forbid you from ever using my name
    to serve your own purposes or justify war again.
[15:28] Celestine
    If you do, I won't be so tolerant next time.
[15:31] Pope
    Please forgive me!
[15:34] Kaoru
    Say, everyone, don't you think we
    should stop calling Rueda a "Holy Land"?
[15:39] Kaoru
    The goddess doesn't favor
    any one group of people over another.
[15:43] Kaoru
    Right, Celes?
[15:44] Celestine
    Pretty much.
[15:45] Celestine
    Oh, but the temples in each nation
    are still welcome to use my name.
[15:51] Celestine
    You're allowed to worship
    me as your goddess, as well.
[15:54] People
    We are so fortunate!
[15:56] Celestine
    By the way, Kaoru, what do
    you think of this world?
[15:59] Celestine
    I know you kind of just got here, but...
[16:00] Kaoru
    No, I've been here for quite a while!
[16:03] Kaoru
    Your sense of time is way off from ours!
[16:05] Celestine
    Oh, yeah. To me, ten years and a
    hundred years are about the same,
[16:10] Celestine
    but humans aren't like that, huh?
[16:12] Kaoru
    For sure.
[16:14] Kaoru
    I've had all kinds of adventures
    and a lot of fun, thanks.
[16:17] Celestine
    Really? Maybe I can go ahead and
    deliver a report to him, then.
[16:23] Kaoru
    Yeah, if you wait too long, I could
    end up an old woman pretty quick.
[16:30] Celestine
    Oh, of course you wouldn't!
    You and your funny jokes!
[16:35] Celestine
    Well, I need to head back now.
[16:37] Kaoru
    Got it.
[16:39] Kaoru
    Play it smooth with that Earth guy, okay?
[16:43] Celestine
    I'll do my best!
[16:44] Kaoru
    And with that, our unprecedented conference
    featuring a visit from the goddess ended.
[16:49] Kaoru
    Afterward, Rueda lost its
    status as the "holy land,"
[16:53] Kaoru
    and all the clergymen who were lining
    their own pockets were arrested.
[16:58] Kaoru
    The Empire of Aligot, however,
    gladly went back over the mountains
[17:01] Kaoru
    in search of partners to negotiate with.
[17:03] Kaoru
    And...
SIGN    Kingdom of Balmore, Port Town (Four Years Later)
[17:05] Roland
    So this is Aligot's new ship?
[17:08] Roland
    I'd heard rumors, but it's
    more than I ever expected.
[17:11] Francette
    Yes, it's truly splendid.
[17:13] Kaoru
    And, um... what's that?
[17:15] Francette
    The ship's guardian deity.
[17:17] Francette
    The goddess who saved the Empire
    of Aligot, or so they say.
[17:20] Roland
    They say her glare scares
    away monsters in the sea.
[17:24] Kaoru
    Oh, that's why the eyes look like that.
[17:27] Kaoru
    They could've added a little more up
    top to make me look more like Celes.
[17:31] Kaoru
    Four years later, this
    world is still at peace.
[17:36] Kaoru
    The Empire of Aligot is investing in
    marine trading to increase its strength,
[17:40] Kaoru
    and Rueda was annexed by
    the Kingdom of Balmore
[17:43] Kaoru
    and is now ruled by a new government.
[17:45] Kaoru
    I retired from my job helping
    at Meyer Workshop.
[17:49] Kaoru
    A member of Eyes of the Goddess,
    Lolotte, does their housework now.
[17:54] Kaoru
    And by the way...
[17:55] Kaoru
    Asil seems to have grown quite
    attached to Lolotte lately.
[17:59] Kaoru
    Lucy took over the operation
    of the house the kids live in.
[18:03] Kaoru
    Both Emil and Belle have really grown up.
[18:06] Kaoru
    Things seem to be going
    well with them lately.
[18:09] Kaoru
    Same for these two.
[18:11] Kaoru
    Roland finally asked Fran to marry him.
[18:14] Kaoru
    Her answer was... well, that's
    probably obvious, huh?
[18:18] Kaoru
    And that means...
[18:20] Kaoru
    I'm the only one left
    who's still on the market!
[18:25] Kaoru
    So anyway, I'm thinking of
    heading out on a journey.
[18:28] Kaoru
    Please don't look for me.
[18:29] Roland
    What do you intend to do on this journey?
[18:32] Kaoru
    It'll be a pleasure trip
    to look for a husband.
[18:34] Francette
    A husband? Uh, but...
[18:37] Kaoru
    Yes, in the past four years,
[18:39] Kaoru
    I didn't grow a single millimeter.
[18:42] Kaoru
    In fact, nothing about me,
    physically, has changed at all.
[18:46] Kaoru
    It must be because...
[18:47] (Flashback) Celestine
    Oh, of course you wouldn't!
    You and your funny jokes!
[18:52] Kaoru
    Celes reincarnated me using
    a god's sense of time, didn't she?
[18:57] Kaoru
    Anyway, I want to get away from this
    area where everyone knows about me.
[19:04] Kaoru
    I won't be able to supply
    you with potions anymore,
[19:07] Kaoru
    but you'll only be going back
    to the way you lived before.
[19:11] Kaoru
    I believe the goddess's blessing should
    be spread out widely, thinly, and equally.
[19:16] Roland
    You're right. In the past four years,
[19:18] Roland
    our kingdom's readiness in
    medical matters has improved drastically.
[19:21] Roland
    Even without potions,
[19:23] Roland
    we should be able to save many sick
    and injured people on our own now.
[19:27] Kaoru
    So I'll be saying goodbye
    to all of you for a while.
[19:30] Kaoru
    Thank you for all you've done for me.
[19:39] Kaoru
    And... it still turns out like this, huh?
[19:42] Ed
    Well, where to, miss?
[19:44] Kaoru
    I'll head to the Kingdom of Brancott for now.
[19:47] Kaoru
    I can't get to the other countries in
    the east without passing through there,
[19:51] Kaoru
    and there are some people there
    that I'd like to thank properly.
[19:55] Kaoru
    It's just...
[19:56] Ed
    Just what?
[19:57] Kaoru
    That guy is there, too.
[20:00] Fernand
    What?! Kaoru has returned to our kingdom?!
[20:04] Fernand
    I can't just sit around here!
     I must go find her!
[20:07] Allan
    Hey, come on. You're getting
    ahead of yourself here.
[20:10] Fabio
    We only just got word from the
    border guard's mounted messenger.
[20:14] Fernand
    I don't care! There's no way
    I'm letting her go this time!
[20:20] Fernand
    I've had many marriage proposals
     in the past four years,
[20:22] Fernand
    and I turned them all down. Do you know why?
[20:25] Fernand
    Yes! It was all so I could
    take Kaoru as my wife!
[20:29] Allan
    He's gotten a lot worse.
[20:31] Fabio
    It's an obsession at this point.
[20:33] Fernand
    Just wait, Kaoru! My beloved bride-to-be!
[20:39] Fernand
    Huh?!
[20:42] Eme
    I told you, the one who came here
    was Kaoru's older sister, Alpha!
[20:47] Fabio
    Are you certain?
[20:48] Allan
    The two of them do look identical.
[20:51] Agathe
    We're positive.
[20:53] Agathe
    When we told her Kaoru was run out of
    the capital with injuries... Remember?
[20:58] Eme
    She got a really scary
    look on her face and said,
[21:00] Eme
    "I'll make those guys
    regret this!" She was furious!
[21:04] Eme
    It even made us shiver!
[21:06] Fernand
    I-I see. I do apologize.
[21:15] Fernand
    It was the older sister again.
[21:18] Fernand
    Where in the world is Kaoru, then?
[21:21] Fabio
    Fernand, this is difficult to say, but...
[21:24] Allan
    Just give up on her already.
[21:26] Allan
    If you still can't find her after all this,
     that's probably her answer to you.
[21:34] Fernand
    No.
[21:35] Allan/Fabio
    Huh?
[21:36] Fernand
    There is only one I have
    chosen to be my wife!
[21:39] Fernand
    And that's you, Kaoru!
[21:41] Fernand
    I will never give up on you!
[21:44] Francette
    What's the matter?
[21:45] Kaoru
    I don't know... I just felt a
    terrible chill all of a sudden.
[21:51] Roland
    The town of Celinas is in sight now.
[21:55] Kaoru
    Okay, everyone, once we enter town,
     remember our story.
[21:59] Kaoru
    We're noble brothers and sisters.
[22:01] Francette
    Understood, Lady Kaoru.
[22:03] Kaoru
    What did I just say? No "Lady"!
[22:06] Francette
    I'm sorry. It's hard to break the habit.
[22:09] Francette
    From now on, I'll just
    call you... Kaoru, then?
[22:12] Kaoru
    Yeah, please do.
[22:14] Kaoru
    All right, let's go!
[22:15] Roland/Francette
    Right!
[22:16] Kaoru
    Hi-yo, Silver!
[22:18] Ed
    Yeah, baby!
[22:19] Ed
    Wait, my name's Ed! Who the heck is Silver?!
[22:25] Celestine
    Sheesh...
[22:26] Celestine
    I was freaking out, thinking
    there was another distortion.
[22:30] Celestine
    I'm glad it turned out to be nothing, though.
[22:32] Celestine
    Okay, perfect! I bet he'll love this!
[22:36] Celestine
    I'm stepping out!

[00:01] Kaoru
    Now entering Drisard!
[00:03] Kaoru
    Wow, a brand-new country! A brand-new town!
[00:07] People
    She's so excited. How cute.
[00:09] People
    What an energetic girl.
[00:09] Kaoru
    They're laughing at me?
[00:11] Kaoru
    It's fine!
[00:13] Kaoru
    When you're honestly impressed,
    being vocal about it increases the effect!
[00:17] Kaoru
    That said...
[00:19] Kaoru
    It's really not that different from
    the other countries I've been in.
[00:23] Roland
    True.
[00:25] Roland
    The town we're in, Celinas, is a point
    of contact with the Kingdom of Brancott.
[00:31] Roland
    It's a cornerstone of trade
    with other countries,
[00:33] Roland
    and some even call it the face of Drisard.
[00:35] Roland
    For Drisard, it's a very
    important cosmopolitan city.
[00:38] Kaoru
    Oh!
[00:41] Kaoru
    Excuse me. Do you have any rooms available?
[00:44] Kaoru
    We'd like two doubles and one single.
[00:47] Lady
    Two doubles and... one single?
[00:50] Lady
    Ah, of course. No problem.
[00:53] Kaoru
    I think she just looked at
    me with pity in her eyes!
[00:57] Kaoru
    Hmph! No way I'm sharing a room
    with a lovey-dovey couple!
[01:01] Kaoru
    I do things alone, anyway.

[01:05] Kaoru
    It's a good thing Roland clearly has
    the aura of someone high-ranking,
[01:09] Kaoru
    since that means we can pass ourselves off as
    five noble siblings traveling abroad to study.
[01:15] Kaoru

    I'm a crêpe seller
    from the Kingdom of Balmore...
[01:25] Kaoru
    I mean, the naïve, self-indulgent
    daughter of a low-ranking noble,
[01:30] Kaoru
    and I need to do some
    studying and make some money
[01:33] Kaoru
    while I look for a husband!
[01:36] Kaoru
    So, on that note...
[01:38] Kaoru
    Let's get out there and do this!
[01:45] Kaoru
    Huh?
SIGN    I'm Seen as a Beautiful Girl and Abducted!
[03:17] Kaoru
    I decided to keep quiet and let them take me.
[03:20] Kaoru
    I'm sure I'll have plenty
    of opportunities to escape.
[03:23] Kaoru
    The only problem is...
[03:27] Salle
    I want to go home.
[03:32] Kaoru
    I'm not the only one they took.
[03:37] Kaoru
    So it's unlikely that they took
    me because they know who I am.
[03:42] Kaoru
    In other words, they're...
[03:45] Kaoru
    a group that kidnaps pretty girls!
[03:47] Kaoru
    Aw, I called myself "pretty"!
[03:49] Kaoru
    But we're all cute.
[03:51] Kaoru
    It's not like I'm happy about it or anything.
[03:54] Kaoru
    It's just true!
[03:58] Lady
    Oh, the black-haired girl?
[04:00] Lady
    She went out right after
    I gave you your rooms.
[04:03] Four
    What?!
[04:05] Roland
    Kaoru is a big eater,
    and she's stingy with money.
[04:08] Roland
    She paid to have dinner
    included with our lodging,
[04:11] Roland
    so there's no way she'd skip dinner.
[04:14] Emil
    Even if she did go out, she'd be
     back by dinner time for sure.
[04:18] Francette
    Even if it was storming or raining frogs,
[04:21] Francette
    she'd make sure to be back here for dinner.
[04:23] Francette
    That's just how Kaoru is!
[04:25] Belle
    Uh-huh!
[04:26] Roland
    Which must mean...
[04:29] Roland
    Something happened that prevented
    her from coming back in time!
[04:34] Roland
    We're leaving!
[04:37] Lady
    Wait! What about dinner?
[04:40] Kaoru
    Hmm... This seems to be a hidden basement
    room in some run-down building.
[04:47] Kaoru
    Excuse me. This girl is clearly in pain.
[04:50] MinionA
    Shut up! Just keep quiet!
[04:53] Kaoru
    I can't sit by and do nothing
    when a cute girl is in pain!
[04:56] Kaoru
    They must have been rough with
    her when they abducted her.
[05:01] Kaoru
    Where I come from, when someone's
     in pain, we do this.
[05:06] Kaoru
    Pain, pain...
[05:08] Kaoru
    Fly away!
[05:10] Kaoru
    Fly away!
[05:13] Kaoru
    Fly away!
[05:16] MinionA
    Wh-What the hell did you do?!
[05:19] Kaoru
    Nothing, really.
[05:21] Kaoru
    She was in pain,
[05:23] Kaoru
    so I just used a little charm
    to take her mind off of it.
[05:26] Kaoru
    And... I did create a tiny bit of a drug
    that intensely stimulates one's sense of pain
[05:32] Kaoru
    on the surface of your
    body while I was at it.
[05:35] Kaoru
    Pain, pain, go away!
[05:40] MinionA
    S-Stop it! You'd better
     stop right now, or else...
[05:44] Kaoru
    Oh, are you sure you want to do that?
[05:46] Kaoru
    There's another charm that goes,
    "Sword tip, sword tip, fly away."
[05:53] Kaoru
    What do you think happens when that's used?
[05:56] Kaoru
    The sword flies right into
    the person wielding it.
[06:03] Reyette
    Hey, the pain really did fly away!
[06:06] Kaoru
    That's great.
[06:07] Reyette
    I'm Reyette.
[06:08] Kaoru
    I'm Kaoru. How old are you, Reyette?
[06:12] Reyette
    I'm six.
[06:13] Kaoru
    Oh, I see.
[06:15] Kaoru
    Hang in there just a bit longer, okay, guys?
[06:18] Kaoru
    I promise I'll save you.
[06:20] Reyette
    Okay!
[06:21] Leader
    What's going on?!
[06:25] Kaoru
    Huh? Um, nothing.
[06:28] Kaoru
    The guy who was guarding us just
    suddenly jumped up and ran out.
[06:32] Leader
    That idiot. He fell asleep
    on the job, didn't he?
[06:36] Kaoru
    He probably has the rank of
    a leader within this group.
[06:39] Kaoru
    But I'm sure he's just the one
    who carried out this kidnapping.
[06:43] Kaoru
    This was probably part of a
    much more organized crime.
[06:48] Kaoru
    Well, why don't I just go ahead and expose
    this pretty-girl kidnapping ring of theirs?
[06:52] Kaoru
    Yeah, "pretty" is definitely
    part of it! Uh-huh!
[06:58] Emil/Belle
    Kaoru! Kaoru!
[07:01] Emil
    Kaoru!
[07:03] Belle
    Kaoru!
[07:04] Roland
    Where could she be?
[07:06] Francette
    If anything has happened to Kaoru...
[07:10] Francette
    I'll make whoever's responsible pay.
[07:14] MinionB
    What the hell are you doing?
[07:16] Kaoru
    Playing a game.
[07:18] MinionB
    What are you eating?!
[07:19] Literisa
    Juice!
[07:21] Kaoru
    Meat skewers.
[07:22] MinionB
    Wait, where were you hiding that stuff?!
[07:25] Kaoru
    I had them in here all along.
[07:27] MinionB
    Those wouldn't fit in there!
[07:29] Kaoru
    They do, though.
[07:31] Kaoru
    Everyone, put the skewers and
    cups back when you're done.
[07:34] Girls
    Okay!
[07:38] MinionB
    There's no way those should fit!
[07:40] MinionB
    There's no way those should fit!
[07:44] MinionC
    Damn it. I wasn't supposed to
    be on guard duty until tomorrow.
[07:48] MinionC
    I should've gone out drinking sooner.
[07:51] Kaoru
    Um, what happened to the men from before?
[07:54] MinionC
    They're upstairs getting
    reamed out by our leader.
[07:56] Leader
    You morons need to get it together!
[07:59] MinionC
    Seriously, they all fall asleep
[08:01] MinionC
    and wake up screaming from
    nightmares? They've got issues.
[08:05] MinionC
    Right? You agree, don't you?
[08:07] Kaoru
    Huh? He's a lot more friendly
    than the other guys.
[08:10] Kaoru
    Maybe he likes to talk.
[08:12] Kaoru
    Okay, now's my chance
    to get some information.
[08:15] Kaoru
    Um, what's going to happen to us?
[08:19] MinionC
    Huh? Oh, don't worry.
    You won't be killed or anything.
[08:24] MinionC
    At most, you might be forced to work
[08:26] MinionC
    as a maid for some master
    wherever you end up being taken.
[08:30] MinionC
    But if you're lucky,
[08:32] MinionC
    you might get to live as some low-ranking
    noble's fourth daughter or something.
[08:38] MinionC
    Just behave and let them
    take good care of you, okay?
[08:44] Kaoru
    I know what he's talking about.
[08:48] Kaoru
    The slave trade.
[08:50] Kaoru
    Just kidnapping us was
    already a crime in itself,
[08:53] Kaoru
    but that's really serious.
[08:56] Kaoru
    This isn't a crime that a bunch
    of punks could pull off alone.
[09:00] Kaoru
    They're backed by someone who can snuff
    out a little information leak or two,
[09:05] Kaoru
    or eliminate anyone who reports them.
[09:09] MinionC
    You guys should get some sleep.
[09:11] MinionC
    Looks like you'll be leaving
    here in the morning.
[09:13] Kaoru
    Huh?
[09:15] MinionC
    I guess they were hoping
    to get one or two more...
[09:18] MinionC
    But one of you girls has some friends who're
    making a pretty big show of looking for you.
[09:26] MinionC
    And on top of that, the guards who were
    here before are kinda having breakdowns,
[09:31] MinionC
    so they decided to wrap up for now.
[09:33] Kaoru
    And there's my chance!
[09:35] MinionC
    You sure are lucky.
[09:37] MinionC
    You'll get to live easy lives with some
    domain lord or mid-level merchant.
[09:43] MinionC
    I wanna be kept by someone like that.
[09:46] Kaoru
    I have to finish this
    before I leave this town!
[09:56] Leader
    Get in there.
[10:05] Kaoru
    Give me a monomolecular vibro-blade knife.
[10:09] Kaoru
    First, the ropes around my ankles...
[10:13] Kaoru
    And then the ones on my wrists...
[10:15] Kaoru
    Ow!
[10:17] Kaoru
    That hurt as much as when I got
    a papercut from copier paper!
[10:22] Kaoru
    Wait... I didn't even need to cut the ropes.
[10:26] Kaoru
    I could have just moved them to my Item Box.
[10:29] Kaoru
    Man, I hurt myself for
    nothing! I'm such a dolt!
[10:39] GuardA
    What are you carrying?
[10:40] Leader
    Just six empty barrels.
[10:42] Kaoru
    Are we at a checkpoint or something?
[10:44] Leader
    We're on our way to pick up some wine.
[10:47] GuardA
    All clear.
[10:49] Kaoru
    What?! He's not gonna check inside?!
[10:51] Kaoru
    Still, now's my chance!
[10:53] Kaoru
    These guys are kidnappers! Please help us!
[10:58] GuardA
    Yes, these are empty barrels, all right.
[11:02] Kaoru
    Huh?!
[11:03] Leader
    Yes, they certainly are.
[11:06] Kaoru
    Oh... So they're all in on it, huh?
[11:09] Kaoru
    And there are more of them now.
[11:13] Kaoru
    Forget this. I tried everything
    I could come up with.
[11:18] Kaoru
    Besides, I'm kinda pissed off now.
[11:20] Kaoru
    All right, let's do this, then.
[11:23] Kaoru
    Give me the thing I used against
    the invading Aligot army!
[11:29] Kaoru
    And for a marker...
[11:39] Roland
    That's...
[11:42] Emil
    Hey, look!
[11:43] Belle
    Emil, the only one who can do that is...
[11:46] Emil
    Yeah, it can only be her.
[11:48] GuardA
    Get her!
[11:50] Kaoru
    Take this!
[11:54] GuardC
    Damn it!
[11:55] Kaoru
    A sunbeam in the hand!
[11:57] Kaoru
    Finishing move: Breath of the Goddess!
[12:01] Kaoru
    Except not really. It's actually
    chili pepper extract spray.
[12:05] Kaoru
    But hey, times like this call
    for beauty of form, right?
[12:09] Kaoru
    But still...
[12:11] Kaoru
    It looks like all of the
    guards here are in on it.
[12:17] Kaoru
    Francette and the rest better hurry,
    or there won't be any prey left.
[12:24] Crowd
    What happened?
[12:25] Crowd
    I heard a huge explosion.
[12:25] Crowd
    Did you see that golden cloud?
[12:26] Crowd
    What's going on?
[12:27] GuardE
    You little—
[12:33] Leader
    Little bitch!
[12:37] Kaoru
    Now!
[12:45] Kaoru
    Well done! Just like we planned!
[12:49] GuardG
    What happened?!
[12:50] Francette
    Kaoru!
[12:52] Kaoru
    Oh, Fran.
[12:53] Francette
    Don't you "oh" me!
[12:56] Francette
    Do you have any idea how worried we've been?
[13:00] Francette
    We searched all night with
    no idea what might happen!
[13:02] Francette
    And why didn't you tell us
    you were leaving the inn?!
[13:04] Francette
    You're always like this!
[13:05] Kaoru
    I'm sorry.
[13:07] Kaoru
    Fearsome Fran really is fearsome.
[13:10] Roland
    F-Fran, I think that's
    enough lecturing for now.
[13:14] Commander
    What happened here?
[13:15] Kaoru
    Okay, there are a lot of people here now.
[13:18] Kaoru
    There's no better time!
[13:20] Kaoru
    Well, see, I was taken by these serial
    kidnappers of beautiful girls.
[13:26] Kaoru
    The ones on the ground
    there are the kidnappers.
[13:28] Kaoru
    The ones you see here are the
    beautiful victims, myself included.
[13:33] Kaoru
    And those guards on the ground
[13:35] Kaoru
    knew that these guys were transporting
    beautiful girls they'd kidnapped,
[13:39] Kaoru
    but they were going to let them pass.
[13:42] Kaoru
    In other words, they're on
     the kidnappers' side.
[13:45] Commander
    Wh-What?
[13:48] Francette
    Not that it matters,
[13:49] Francette
    but I notice you stress the part
    about you being beautiful a lot.
[13:53] GuardG
    They're the guys behind that
    serial kidnapping case?
[13:56] GuardG
    We couldn't seem to find any leads on them.
[13:59] GuardH
    I can't believe some of our own
    men were working with them.
[14:01] Kaoru
    It's a big deal for sure.
[14:03] Kaoru
    Part of your country's guard force
    was in on a kidnapping ring.
[14:07] Kaoru
    It's an unbelievable scandal.
[14:09] Roland
    This could even escalate
    to an international issue.
[14:12] Roland
    Celinas is the face of Drisard, after all.
[14:16] Commander
    B-But there are so many of them.
[14:18] Commander
    Who took them all out?
[14:20] PasserbyA
    They were already down by the
    time those guys got here.
[14:25] PasserbyB
    Which means... she did it all herself?
[14:29] Kaoru
    No, not quite.
[14:30] Commander
    What? Then who...
[14:33] Kaoru
    It was the goddess.
[14:39] Kaoru
    Oh, looks like the domain
    lord himself has arrived.
[14:44] Lord
    Are you the one who claims to
    have met the goddess Celestine?
[14:48] Kaoru
    Yes, I am.
[14:51] Lord
    Is it true?
[14:52] Kaoru
    Oh, yes, and she was absolutely beautiful!
[14:55] Kaoru
    Though her breasts were a bit...
[14:58] Kaoru
    no, considerably less pronounced
    than on her statue...
[15:02] Kaoru
    Owie!
[15:03] Kaoru
    Please forget I said that...
[15:07] Kaoru
    Darn it, Celes!
[15:09] Kaoru
    The goddess knocked out all
    the bad guys to save us.
[15:15] Kaoru
    Also, the golden cloud and roaring sound
[15:18] Kaoru
    were signals to call forth devout and
    faithful servants of the goddess.
[15:21] Commander
    Y-You mean us?
[15:24] Lord
    So what happened to the goddess?
[15:27] Kaoru
    She spoke to me for a bit,
    and then ascended to the heavens.
[15:32] Lord
    Spoke to you?
[15:33] Kaoru
    Yes. The goddess Celestine gave me a message.
[15:39] Kaoru
    "Capturing beautiful, innocent young girls
[15:41] Kaoru
    and selling them as slaves is inexcusable.
[15:44] Kaoru
    Both the kidnappers and those who accepted
    bribes to overlook them are equally guilty.
[15:50] Kaoru
    Punish them impartially.
[15:53] Kaoru
    If any escape punishment,
    I will punish them myself."
[15:57] Kaoru
    That's her message.
[16:00] Kaoru
    Oh, and by the way,
[16:02] Kaoru
    when the goddess Celestine says
    she's going to punish someone...
[16:05] Kaoru
    If even one of those infuriating
    perpetrators remains unpunished,
[16:08] Kaoru
    she'll crush him and the home
    of his domain's lord.
[16:11] Kaoru
    And if even the slightest root
    of the organization remains,
[16:15] Kaoru
    she'll turn the entire city
    they're in into a sea of flames.
[16:18] Kaoru
    That's the kind of thing she's talking about.
[16:24] Lord
    G-Get them!
[16:26] Lord
    Don't let a single one
    escape or kill himself!
[16:30] Lord
    Make them give up every last detail!
[16:32] Lord
    I will not tolerate mistakes!
[16:33] Lord
    Nay, I cannot!
[16:35] Guards
    Yes, sir!
[16:36] Kaoru
    Oh, as for the kidnappers' base...
[16:39] Kaoru
    The goddess said she'd use
    red smoke to lead you to it.
[16:44] GuardH
    That way!
[16:46] Roland
    What a disaster.
[16:48] Kaoru
    But it doesn't seem like the
    domain lord was in on it.
[16:52] Kaoru
    And it seems like they only
    sold slaves domestically,
[16:56] Kaoru
    mainly to local lords
    and mid-level merchants,
[17:00] Kaoru
    so this won't be an international incident.
[17:02] LiterisaMom
    Literisa!
[17:03] SalleMom
    Salle!
[17:05] LiterisaMom
    Literisa!
[17:06] SalleMom
    Salle!
[17:07] Salle
    Mom!
[17:08] Literisa
    Mother!
[17:15] Kaoru
    Where are Reyette's guardians?
[17:17] Commander
    Apparently, her parents sold her off.
[17:20] Commander
    She was abducted from her
    buyers while in transport.
[17:26] Kaoru
    What'll happen to her now?
[17:29] Commander
    I guess the best thing for her would
    be to put her in an orphanage.
[17:32] Commander
    She'll be much happier there
    than dying young in the slums.
[17:36] Lord
    I'll write a letter later,
[17:39] Lord
    explaining that she was saved by the goddess.
[17:41] Lord
    I'm sure they'll take care—
[17:43] Kaoru
    In that case, I'll take Reyette in myself.
[17:46] All
    What?!
[17:47] Francette
    K-Kaoru, you'd do that again?
[17:49] Roland
    Take her in? But that's...
[17:53] Emil
    I think it's fine.
[17:55] Belle
    We know all too well how she feels.
[17:59] Kaoru
    Emil, Belle...
[18:03] Kaoru
    Is there any problem with me taking her in?
[18:06] Commander
    Uh... no, there's no legal issue with it.
[18:09] Commander
    It's all up to her, now that she's free.
[18:14] Reyette
    I'll go with you!
[18:15] Kaoru
    Got me a cute little girl!
[18:18] Kaoru
    Now I won't have to feel all alone when
    those two couples are showing off!
[18:24] Kaoru
    Well, there you have it, then.
[18:25] Francette
    Uh, there we have what, exactly?
[18:32] Kaoru
    Hi-yo, Silver!
[18:34] Ed
    Seriously, who is Silver?!
[18:36] Francette
    By the way, Kaoru, why'd you give
    them such a roundabout story?
[18:41] Francette
    If you're invoking the goddess's name anyway,
[18:43] Francette
    wouldn't it be easier to
    just say you're her angel?
[18:47] Kaoru
    No way. Do you even realize
[18:51] Kaoru
    how many headaches I've
    been through by doing that?
[18:55] Roland
    True...
[18:57] Kaoru
    But since I said what I did,
    no one tried to follow or stop us,
[19:01] Kaoru
    so we were able to get back on the road.
[19:04] Kaoru
    Right, Reyette?
[19:05] Reyette
    Right!
[19:07] Kaoru
    But a long trip on horseback will
    probably be hard on Reyette.
[19:11] Kaoru
    It'd be pretty bad if she
    fell off for some reason.
[19:15] Kaoru
    Ed, I have a little favor to ask.
[19:18] Ed
    What is it?
[19:19] Ed
    I owe you my life.
[19:20] Ed
    I'll do anything for you.
[19:22] Kaoru
    I'd actually like you to pull a carriage.
[19:25] Ed
    F-Forget it!
[19:27] Kaoru
    Hey! You changed your story!
[19:30] Ed
    I am a purebred riding horse!
[19:33] Ed
    An army horse specialized
    for combat, at that!
[19:36] Ed
    And you want to make me a cart horse?!
[19:38] Ed
    Even if you're the one asking,
    that's the one thing I can't do!
[19:43] Kaoru
    B-But the carriage you'll be pulling
    isn't just an ordinary one.
[19:47] Ed
    Eh?
[19:48] Kaoru
    Come forth, chariot of the goddess!
SIGN    Naturally,
    it's a potion container!!
[20:05] Kaoru
    This is called a chariot.
[20:07] Kaoru
    It's a horse-drawn carriage made for combat.
[20:10] Ed
    Hah! A carriage is still a carriage!
[20:13] Kaoru
    Better step away, then.
[20:15] Kaoru
    You'll get hurt if you're too close to it.
[20:17] Ed
    Huh?
[20:18] Kaoru
    Reyette, don't stand up.
[20:21] Reyette
    Okay.
[20:22] Kaoru
    Now, then...
[20:31] Kaoru
    And also...
[20:43] Emil
    Wow...
[20:45] Belle
    The chariot of the goddess!
[20:48] Roland Horse
    Lady Kaoru!
[20:49] Roland Horse
    I'll pull it!
[20:51] Fran Horse
    No, I will!
[20:53] Kaoru
    I guess I'll have you two do it, then.
[20:55] Kaoru
    If Ed doesn't want to, that's just how it is.
[20:58] Ed
    No, no, no! Wait! Wait just a minute!
[21:03] Ed
    Yahoo!
[21:05] Ed
    Whoo-hoo-hoo!
[21:07] Celestine
    So anyway, Kaoru and her friends are
    doing just fine on their journey.
[21:12] Celestine
    Not only that, but she's making sure to
    repay all the people who've helped her.
[21:18] Celestine
    For example, the maid she
    used as a body double
[21:22] Celestine
    when she escaped the baron's mansion...
[21:24] Celestine
    was rewarded with silky smooth skin
    and hair, and married a rich man.
[21:30] Celestine
    And the guard who let her go when she
    fled from the Kingdom of Brancott...
[21:35] Celestine
    had a lovely son who'd been badly hurt
    in an accident, and she saved him.
[21:44] Earth Administrator
    I'm glad to hear that.
[21:46] Earth Administrator
    Both Kaoru's safety and the
    continued peace in Verny
[21:51] Earth Administrator
    are all thanks to you.
[21:53] Celestine
    Aw, thank you so much!
[21:56] Celestine
    Don't worry!
[21:58] Celestine
    I'll make sure Verny is
    always peaceful and safe!

[00:08] Kaoru
    Long trips sure are exhausting.
[00:10] Kaoru
    The scenery never even changes.
[00:12] Kaoru
    I kinda feel like I just want to pause
    and take it easy for a change.
[00:16] Roland
    If we keep moving south,
    we'll be in the Kingdom of Jusral.
[00:19] Francette
    That's true.
[00:20] Francette
    If we're heading for the
    royal capital Litenia,
[00:23] Francette
    we'll be there in about—
[00:24] Kaoru
    Hot spring!
[00:25] Emil/Belle
    Huh?
[00:26] Roland/Francette
    Huh?
[00:28] Kaoru
    Yeah! Let's head to a hot spring!
[00:30] Emil/Belle
    Hot spring? What's that?
[00:33] Kaoru
    Hot springs are spots where hot
    water comes up from underground,
[00:37] Kaoru
    and sitting in them is really
    good for your health!
[00:40] Kaoru
    They're great for beauty, too.
[00:42] Kaoru
    They make your skin so smooth and shiny.
[00:44] Francette/Belle
    Let's go!
[00:45] Kaoru
    You two jumped on board quick, huh?
[00:48] Reyette
    Let's go!
[00:50] Kaoru
    All right, that's a majority in favor.
[00:53] Kaoru
    We know where we're going!
[00:56] Roland
    D-Do we men get a say in this?
SIGN    I'm Going to Relax in a Hot Spring for a While!
[02:32] Stable Owner
    Hot springs? Yeah, we've got those.
[02:35] Stable Owner
    Don't go there too often, though.
[02:37] Stable Owner
    You gotta climb all the way up to the top,
[02:40] Stable Owner
    and there's no point when
     the return trip makes you sweaty.
[02:44] Kaoru
    I see.
[02:46] Roland
    Looks like it's pretty far.
[02:48] Roland
    We needn't go out of our way to—
[02:49] Kaoru
    Hang on just a bit, okay?
[02:51] Emil
    She has every intention of going.
[02:53] Kaoru
    All right, we're off!
[03:00] Stable Owner
    Watch out for the band of
    thieves on that mountain!
[03:07] Roland
    Kaoru, what is that thing?
[03:09] Kaoru
    A sensor that detects hot
    springs by reacting to sulfur.
[03:13] Kaoru
    I call it a Hot Spring Sensor!
SIGN    -shaped
    potion
     container
[03:17] Kaoru
    Oh, I think there's a hot spring just ahead!
[03:25] Kaoru
    There it is!
[03:33] Kaoru
    Ah, it's so rejuvenating.
[03:38] Kaoru
    This feels great!
[03:40] Francette
    I really am glad we came here.
[03:42] Francette
    But Kaoru...
[03:44] Francette
    Just what is that?
[03:46] Kaoru
    Where I come from,
[03:48] Kaoru
    the water in hot springs pours from a
    lion's mouth. It's just common sense!
[03:52] Kaoru
    Okay, that's a bit of a stretch, but...
[03:55] Kaoru
    Oh, well.
[03:57] Francette
    I-I see.
[04:03] Francette
    The water feels so gentle.
[04:05] Belle
    I wanna try!
[04:08] Belle
    It's shining up my skin!
[04:10] Kaoru
    I actually set it up so
    that a potion for beauty
[04:14] Kaoru
    and relaxation pours out
    from it a bit at a time.
[04:18] Kaoru
    And the next hot spring tradition is...
[04:20] Kaoru
    Girl talk!
[04:22] Kaoru
    We talk about relationships!
    Y'know, romance talk!
[04:26] Kaoru
    Well, Fran? How's it going with Roland?
[04:29] Francette
    What do you mean by, "How's it going?"
[04:32] Kaoru
    What do you two talk about when you're alone?
[04:35] Kaoru
    Like, about the future, or...
[04:37] Francette
    We only talk about how we can protect you.
[04:41] Kaoru
    Huh? Then how about... uh, I mean...
[04:45] Kaoru
    How far have you two gone?
[04:47] Francette
    How far?
[04:48] Francette
    We've been with you all the whole time,
[04:50] Francette
    so we went from Grua to
    Celinas, and then came here.
[04:56] Kaoru
    O-Okay, Belle, you're next!
[04:58] Kaoru
    Is it going well with you and Emil?
[05:00] Kaoru
    Ever do any lovey talk?
[05:02] Belle
    Lovey?
[05:04] Belle
    We do talk about Lolotte and Lucy,
[05:06] Belle
    but we didn't have any
    orphan friends named Lovey.
[05:12] Kaoru
    W-Well, last up is Reyette...
[05:15] Kaoru
    but you wouldn't have any
    romantic stories, huh?
[05:17] Reyette
    What about your romantic stories, Kaoru?
[05:22] Kaoru
    I'm sorry.
[05:23] Kaoru
    It was a mistake to bring up romance talk
[05:26] Kaoru
    when I've been single for as
    many years as I've been alive.
[05:29] Francette
    Whatever is the matter, Kaoru?
[05:31] Kaoru
    Oh, nothing. Let's just enjoy the bath.
[05:34] Belle
    It really does feel great!
[05:36] Roland
    They sure are taking it easy.
[05:38] Emil
    Indeed.
[05:39] Francette
    And rejuvenating.
[05:45] Roland
    Who's there?!
[05:46] Emil
    Show yourself!
[05:53] Kaoru
    What happened?
[05:55] Marco
    W-We're not bad guys!
[06:01] Marco
    We live in the village just ahead.
[06:04] Kaoru
    A village? This deep in the mountains?
[06:07] BoyA
    Yeah. It's our village that
    manages this hot spring.
[06:11] Kaoru
    Oh, I'm sorry.
[06:12] Kaoru
    We were the rude ones for
    just helping ourselves to it.
[06:15] BoyB
    Oh, it's no problem.
[06:18] BoyB
    You're welcome to use it all you'd like.
[06:20] Kaoru
    Really?
[06:21] BoyA
    Y-Yes.
[06:22] Kaoru
    We'll just relax a little longer, then.
[06:25] Kaoru
    Everyone knows that after a hot bath...
[06:28] Kaoru
    nothing beats some good fruit-flavored milk!
[06:32] Roland
    They're enjoying themselves.
[06:33] Emil
    They sure are.
[06:35] Francette
    This is very good!
[06:37] Reyette
    Yummy!
[06:38] Marco
    S-So... would you care to
    come visit our village?
[06:42] Kaoru
    Huh?
[06:43] BoyA
    It's just about two hours that way.
[06:47] BoyA
    It's small, but it's a nice village.
[06:49] BoyB
    Our cooking is delicious.
[06:52] BoyB
    We use fresh vegetables and
    yams, venison, and boar.
[06:55] Kaoru
    Ooh!
[06:57] Kaoru
    Okay, but...
[06:59] Kaoru
    Why are their eyes darting around like that?
[07:03] Roland
    Complete strangers so glibly
    inviting us to their village?
[07:08] Roland
    This is obviously suspicious.
[07:10] Francette
    There must be something behind it.
[07:12] Francette
    We shouldn't accept their invitation.
[07:14] Kaoru
    Well, sure! Let's go!
[07:16] Four
    What?!
[07:24] BoyA
    We'll go let the village chief know.
[07:26] Marco
    Yeah.
[07:30] Francette
    Kaoru, why did you agree to this?
[07:33] Francette
    It's obviously suspicious.
[07:35] Kaoru
    Yeah, but it kinda seems like fun.
[07:37] Kaoru
    Besides...
[07:39] Kaoru
    I'm not one to turn down a fight.
[07:42] Four
    Yeah, we know.
[07:44] Reyette
    We know!
[07:49] Chief
    Welcome to our village.
[07:52] Chief
    There isn't much here,
    but please make yourselves at home.
[07:55] VillagerA
    Right this way.
[07:57] VillagerB
    Come on in!
[07:58] Kaoru
    Okay, then.
[08:18] Chief
    Have a seat.
[08:20] Chief
    The food will be ready shortly.
[08:31] Kaoru
    Hmm... This looks like...
[08:36] Kaoru
    a countryside matchmaking party
    with no eligible bachelorettes!
[08:40] Three
    It's not!
[08:45] Reyette
    Thank you for the food.
[08:49] Kaoru
    There didn't seem to be any poison
    or sleeping drugs in the food.
[08:55] Kaoru
    I made sure I'd be ready to rustle
    up a healing potion at any time.
[09:00] Chief
    Now, let's have a chat about our village.
[09:06] Chief
    I know you lot only happened to stop by,
[09:09] Chief
    but right now, you're part of our village.
[09:12] Chief
    And as part of our village,
    you take part in our discussions
[09:15] Chief
    and go along with whatever
    consensus is reached.
[09:19] Chief
    Keep that in mind.
[09:21] Kaoru
    And now the truth comes out, huh?
[09:24] Chief
    Now, let's discuss what we should
    do about that band of thieves.
[09:30] Chief
    As you all know, the thieves
    have their eyes on our village.
[09:35] Chief
    So what shall we do about it?
[09:37] VillagerA
    Yes, if only we had some folks
    with knowledge of martial arts...
[09:41] VillagerB
    True. If we had someone who excelled with
    the sword, we could drive them away.
[09:47] VillagerC
    If anyone in this village
    had combat experience,
[09:50] VillagerC
    surely they'd protect us from the thieves.
[09:52] Kaoru
    Huh... So that's what this is about.
[10:04] BoyA
    Wait, please, lady knight!
    At least tell us your name!
[10:10] Francette
    I am the Einherjar of the goddess,
[10:13] Francette
    entrusted to be her guardian knight.
[10:15] Francette
    No more than that, really.
[10:20] Kaoru
    Oh, this is not good.
[10:22] VillagerA
    Chief, I think we've got 'em.
[10:24] Chief
    Indeed.
[10:26] Francette
    Just leave it to us! If
    that's all you need, we—
[10:29] Kaoru
    —will be praying for this village's safety.
[10:32] Kaoru
    Please look to the lord
    of your domain for help.
[10:36] Francette
    Huh?
[10:37] Chief/VillagerA
    H-Huh?!
[10:38] Villagers
    What?!
[10:40] Kaoru
    I won't let her say it.
[10:41] VillagerA
    Blast you, girl! No one
    asked you to butt in there!
[10:47] VillagerB
    Yeah! Stay out of this, kid!
[10:49] Villagers
    Yeah! That's right!
[10:52] Roland
    They've finally shown us who they really are.
[10:54] Francette
    I almost let my sense of
    justice get ahead of me.
[10:57] Francette
    These people only want to use us as a
    convenient shield to run the thieves off.
[11:03] Emil
    And they did it not by asking politely,
[11:06] Emil
    but by dragging us into it.
[11:08] Belle
    That's pretty cowardly.
[11:09] Belle
    And the moment we saw
    through them, they got defiant.
[11:14] Roland
    I don't like this. We're leaving.
[11:16] Kaoru
    I agree.
[11:17] Francette/Belle/Emil
    Yes.
[11:17] Reyette
    Yep!
[11:19] Chief
    What?!
[11:25] Chief
    W-Wait, please!
[11:27] Chief
    We're very sorry!
[11:30] Chief
    This village was built on land our
    ancestors worked hard to develop.
[11:36] Chief
    We're by no means affluent,
[11:38] Chief
    but we've done our best to eke out a living.
[11:41] Chief
    Then those thieves showed up.
[11:44] (Flashback) Thief Leader
    We'll guard your village.
[11:46] (Flashback) Thief Leader
    In return, you're gonna give
    us money, food, and women.
[11:52] Chief
    The demands they made
    were entirely one-sided.
[11:56] Chief
    If we accept, this village will
    become the thieves' feeding grounds,
[11:59] Chief
    and they'll leave nothing behind!
[12:01] VillagerA
    And if we refuse, they'll do that anyway.
[12:03] VillagerA
    Probably kill us all on the spot, too.
[12:05] Roland
    Haven't you told your lord about this?
[12:07] VillagerB
    Even if we did,
[12:09] VillagerB
    there's no way he'd send his army
    to help a tiny village like ours.
[12:14] Chief
    We really have no way out.
[12:18] Kaoru
    So you thought you'd do nothing yourselves,
[12:20] Kaoru
    but force us, total strangers,
    to fight the thieves for you?
[12:24] Chief
    W-Well...
[12:26] Chief
    We're just farmers who've never
    wielded anything but hoes and plows!
[12:31] Chief
    We could never hope to fight
    off all those thieves!
[12:35] Chief
    But...
[12:36] Chief
    We hoped that, if the goddess
    hasn't abandoned us,
[12:40] Chief
    perhaps people who excelled in the
    martial arts would pass by our village!
[12:45] Chief
    We've been clinging to that hope for so long.
[12:48] Chief
    And then all of you came along!
[12:50] Kaoru
    The goddess, huh?
[12:53] Kaoru
    But even if we do fight
    off the thieves this time,
[12:57] Kaoru
    that wouldn't solve the root
    of the problem, would it?
[13:01] Kaoru
    This deep in the mountains, other
    thieves could still target you.
[13:06] Kaoru
    How will you get through it next time,
     when we're no longer here?
[13:10] Kaoru
    Or the time after that,
    or the time after that?
[13:14] Kaoru
    Depending on others for everything
    while you take zero risks yourselves...
[13:17] Kaoru
    Hoping other people or gods
    will solve your problems...
[13:20] Kaoru
    Is that what your ancestors did, too?
[13:23] Chief
    N-No, they didn't!
[13:25] Chief
    Our ancestors faced great danger
    and risked their lives to...
[13:32] Chief
    You're absolutely right.
[13:34] Chief
    We were wrong.
[13:37] Chief
    How can we ever face our ancestors?
[13:42] Marco
    I'll fight!
[13:45] BoyA
    I don't know anything about how to fight,
[13:48] BoyA
    but I want to protect them.
[13:50] BoyA
    This village, and my mom and sisters!
[13:54] Marco
    So please, teach us how to fight!
[13:58] BoyA
    I'll fight, too!
[13:59] BoyB
    And me!
[14:02] Chief
    I will, too. Please help us!
[14:06] VillagerAB
    Please!
[14:13] Kaoru
    You guys should have just
    asked us that from the start
[14:17] Kaoru
    instead of trying to play silly tricks.
[14:19] Kaoru
    But understand that we'll
    only be helping you.
[14:23] Kaoru
    You're the ones who'll be doing the fighting.
[14:26] All
    Right!
[14:29] Kaoru
    Okay, our steamy all-girls hot
    spring trip is on hold for now.
[14:34] Kaoru
    It's been a while since we did a job
    as Goddess Light, so let's do it!
[14:38] Four
    Right!
[14:40] Boys
    One, two, three!
[14:42] Boys
    One, two, three!
[14:44] Francette
    Thieves are not necessarily
    skilled martial artists.
[14:48] Francette
    Plus, they'll probably have their
    guard down, thinking you won't resist.
[14:53] Francette
    You'll have an opening!
[14:54] Boys
    Right!
[15:02] Reyette
    Hup, hup...
[15:04] Reyette
    Kaoru, we brought water.
[15:07] Kaoru
    Thank you.
[15:12] Kaoru
    Paint this on the fences,
    the thorns, and the ground.
[15:19] VillagerA
    What is this stuff?
[15:21] Kaoru
    It's just a hardener.
[15:23] Kaoru
    I call it reincreted conforce,
    or "recon" for short.
[15:27] VillagerAB
    Uh-huh...
[15:29] Kaoru
    Oh, make sure you don't touch
    it with your bare hands.
[15:33] Kaoru
    'Cause there's a little
    bit of poison in it, too.
[15:41] Chief
    I had them gather all the
    wash basins in the village,
[15:43] Chief
    but we don't have as many as you asked for.
[15:46] Kaoru
    I see...
[15:48] Kaoru
    In that case...
[15:49] Kaoru
    Did you know that the goddess Celes
[15:52] Kaoru
    has tried all kinds of things
    to make her breasts bigger?
[15:56] Kaoru
    She's tried eating cabbage,
    eating soybeans...
[15:58] Kaoru
    It's just heartbreaking!
[16:03] Kaoru
    Whoa! Hey! Hup!
[16:05] Kaoru
    Will this be enough?
[16:22] Kaoru
    Okay!
[16:23] Kaoru
    Preparations to drive the
    thieves away are complete!
[16:30] VillagerC
    They're coming!
[16:32] VillagerC
    It's them! I'm sure of it!
[16:35] Kaoru
    To your designated positions, everyone!
[16:41] Leader
    We're gonna settle this
    once and for all today.
[16:43] Leader
    I'm tired of waiting.
[16:45] Leader
    Hey, Chief. You got our
    money, food, and women?
[16:50] Chief
    We'll be declining your offer.
[16:52] Leader
    What did you say?!
[16:53] Chief
    We cannot accept your demands.
[16:57] Chief
    Please turn back!
[16:59] Thief1
    Hah! Do you know what happens
    to people who defy us?
[17:04] Thief2
    You get to be the first to die, Chief!
[17:08] Thief2
    Screw your dumb fence!
[17:10] Thief2
    Huh?!
[17:13] Thief2
    Damn it!
[17:15] Thief2
    Ow!
[17:18] Thief2
    Ow, ow, ow...
[17:19] Thief2
    What the hell did you put on this?!
[17:22] Leader
    It's poison! Smash through,
    but watch for the thorns!
[17:25] Kaoru
    Ready the wash basins!
[17:31] Thief9
    We'll kill every damn one of you!
[17:46] VillagerB
    There ya go.
[17:48] Thief4/6
    Ow, ow, ow!
[17:53] Leader
    You bunch of...
[17:55] Leader
    You think this is funny?!
[17:57] Chief
    We will protect our women and
    children even if it costs us our lives!
[18:01] Leader
    We're gonna kill all of you!
[18:12] Marco
    You're the only one left!
[18:19] Chief
    Hold it!
[18:21] Chief
    Would you rather die along with
    that boy or peacefully surrender?
[18:26] Leader
    Hah! No matter how many of
    you come at me, I won't lose!
[18:31] Kaoru
    Fran!
[18:32] Francette
    It's about time!
[18:49] Leader
    I give up.
[18:50] Villagers
    Yeah! We did it!
[18:57] Kaoru
    Okay, I've healed those most gravely wounded.
[19:01] Kaoru
    Send a messenger to the city right away.
[19:03] Kaoru
    If you turn in the thieves, you
    should get a reward or something.
[19:07] VillagerA
    Right!
[19:08] Kaoru
    Oh, and have them escorted by specialists!
[19:12] Kaoru
    They're bound to be planning
    to escape or do something bad!
[19:17] Chief
    Thank you so much for all you've done.
[19:21] Chief
    I'm happy we were able to take
    the thieves alive, of course,
[19:26] Chief
    but even more than that, we all
    feel great joy and confidence
[19:31] Chief
    in knowing we protected
    our village ourselves.
[19:35] Chief
    We will never forget our debt to you.
[19:38] Kaoru
    Sure. You'll all have to do
    your best on your own now.
[19:42] Kaoru
    Be sure to take care of
    the traps and such, too.
[19:45] Kaoru
    I'll be watching you all warmly from afar.
[19:54] Kaoru
    Shall we hit up the hot spring one more
    time before we head down the mountain?
[19:58] Belle/Reyette
    I'm in!
[20:00] Marco
    Francette!
[20:02] Marco
    Francette, please teach me
    more of the martial arts!
[20:07] Marco
    I want to train more until
    I can handle a sword.
[20:11] Marco
    Then I'll be able to kill
    bad guys like them, right?
[20:15] Francette
    But then you won't be a farmer anymore.
[20:21] Francette
    You don't learn martial arts
    for the sake of killing people.
[20:25] Francette
    You learn it to better yourself
    and protect those you care about.
[20:32] Francette
    You all fought brilliantly,
    even without knowledge of martial arts.
[20:38] Francette
    That was possible because you all wished
[20:41] Francette
    to protect your village so much.
[20:45] Francette
    Whatever you do, never forget that feeling.
[20:48] Francette
    I know you will be a great, brave farmer.
[20:53] Marco
    Okay!
[20:55] Kaoru
    Boy, this is bliss.
[20:58] Kaoru
    It might not be so bad to stay
    here and take it easy for a while.
[21:02] Francette
    But we couldn't...
[21:05] Kaoru
    A good cleanse of body and mind
    takes me back to where I started.
[21:10] Kaoru
    Right! Let's open a potion shop next!
[21:13] Francette/Belle
    Huh?
[21:14] Kaoru
    If we're opening a shop,
    it should be in a big town.
[21:17] Kaoru
    I wonder what we should call it.
[21:22] Francette
    Who's there?!
[21:28] Francette
    Prince Roland?
[21:29] Belle
    Emil?!
[21:30] Kaoru
    What are you doing there?
[21:32] Roland
    I-It's not like that!
    There might still be thieves left!
[21:37] Roland
    We must guard you from a closer position!
[21:39] Roland
    That's what Emil said.
[21:41] Roland
    What?! You're blaming me?!
[21:42] Emil
    But you suggested it first!
[21:45] Roland
    No, it was simultaneous.
[21:47] Emil
    You said it an instant before I did!
[21:51] Kaoru
    Hmm...
[21:52] Kaoru
    So you decided to get close enough
    that you could peek if you wanted to?
[21:57] Roland/Emil
    No!
[21:59] Kaoru
    Guilty!
[22:00] Francette
    Guilty!
[22:01] Belle
    Guilty!
[22:01] Reyette
    Guilty!

    Huh...
[00:01] Crowd
    Was this shop here before?
[00:01] SoldierA
    Oh, wow.
[00:03] SoldierA
    So this is a new shop now?
[00:05] SoldierB
    "Reyette's Atelier"...
    Some kind of workshop?
[00:09] SoldierA
    No, looks like it's a drugstore.

    "Every type of medicine in one place.
[00:15] SoldierA
    We also accept requests to

[00:18] SoldierA
    Seems pretty legit.
[00:21] SoldierB
    You think they have medicine for that, too?
[00:26] Kaoru
    Welcome.
[00:27] Reyette
    Welelcome!
SIGN    Going Back to My Original Goal in a New Country!
[02:03] Kaoru
    I decided to get back to my original goal
[02:06] Kaoru
    in a new country, the Kingdom of Jusral.
[02:09] Kaoru
    Back when I first reincarnated
    into this world,
[02:13] Kaoru
    my goal was to live an easy
    life thanks to my OP ability.
[02:17] Kaoru
    Thus...
[02:19] Kaoru
    Selling potions that cost
    me nothing to produce,
[02:22] Kaoru
    or in other words, running a
    drugstore, is the best choice.
[02:26] Kaoru
    In the past four years, I've learned a lot
[02:29] Kaoru
    about this world where
    magic potions don't exist.
[02:31] SoldierA
    So, about this medicine...
[02:33] Kaoru
    Ah, the healing potion for soldiers.
[02:37] SoldierB
    Does it really help that
    unbearable itchiness, too?
[02:40] Kaoru
    Yes, of course!
[02:42] Kaoru
    When I opened this shop,
    I introduced a special new product:
[02:46] Kaoru
    a drug to treat the infectious condition
    known in this world as "soldier syndrome,"
[02:50] Kaoru
    which is actually just athlete's foot.
[02:53] Kaoru
    As it says there,
[02:55] Kaoru
    we have three types of medication
    for soldier syndrome.
[02:58] Kaoru
    The one you have there that
    costs three small silver coins
[03:00] Kaoru
    relieves the itch if you
    rub it on once a day,
[03:03] Kaoru
    and prevents the condition from worsening.
[03:05] Kaoru
    The one that costs three
    silver coins stops the itch
[03:08] Kaoru
    and gradually heals the rash.
[03:10] Kaoru
    And the one that costs
    three small gold coins
[03:12] Kaoru
    cures the rash within a few days.
[03:14] Kaoru
    Of course, if you contract it again after
    it heals, we bear no responsibility for that.
[03:19] SoldierA
    Three small silvers, huh?
[03:21] SoldierB
    That's pretty cheap.
[03:23] Kaoru
    Don't underestimate three
    small silver coins.
[03:26] Kaoru
    Because once you start taking
    that medicine, you can't stop.
[03:30] Kaoru
    It relieves the itch, but doesn't cure the rash.
[03:32] Kaoru
    It's a devilish practice that guarantees I keep
    getting their money over and over.
[03:37] Kaoru
    And even if they do spring for
    the more expensive medicine,
[03:40] Kaoru
    they'll just get the rash
    again from someone else.
[03:43] Kaoru
    The sale of medication to
    treat soldier syndrome
[03:45] Kaoru
    is an endlessly profitable
    spring of gold coins!
[03:49] SoldierAB
    I'll take this!
[03:50] Kaoru
    Thank you!
[03:52] Reyette
    Fank you!
[03:56] Kaoru
    Is she doing that on purpose
    to kill them with cuteness?
[04:00] Kaoru
    Well, looks like the shop will
    do just fine for a while.
[04:03] Kaoru
    Guess it's time to move
    into the second phase.
[04:07] Emil
    The items you requested.
[04:09] Staff
    Eight bundles of edible wild plants
    and six bundles of medicinal herbs.
[04:13] Staff
    Good job. Here you go.
[04:15] Emil
    Thank you.
[04:16] Belle
    Do you have any new quests?
[04:18] Staff
    I do.
[04:19] Staff
    That girl over there just brought it in.
[04:24] HunterA
    "Seeking guards. Two needed.
[04:27] HunterA
    To last until either the client
    or the questers wish to stop.
[04:32] HunterA
    Reward is one small gold coin... per day"?!
[04:36] HunterA
    Seriously? For two people?
[04:38] HunterA
    That'd barely cover food and lodging!
[04:41] HunterB
    "Also, the guards must be a party,
    and one or both must be female"?
[04:46] HunterB
    What's with these terms?
[04:48] HunterA
    This person has no idea
    what things are worth.
[04:51] Emil
    In that case...
[04:53] Belle
    Mind if we accept that quest?
[04:59] Kaoru
    Pleased to meet you.
[05:00] Kaoru
    I'm Kaoru, the owner of Reyette's Atelier.
[05:04] Kaoru
    As the flyer says, you'll each be paid
[05:06] Kaoru
    one small gold coin per day for this quest.
[05:09] Kaoru
    You'll live here for the duration,
[05:11] Kaoru
    and all other miscellaneous
    expenses will be covered.
[05:14] Kaoru
    Having hunters here as guards
    should be intimidating enough,
[05:17] Kaoru
    so you're free to do other work if I haven't
    asked you to do anything specific.
[05:22] Kaoru
    Any questions?
[05:24] Emil
    No. I'm Emil, and this is Belle.
[05:27] Emil
    We're still new to this, but we
    look forward to serving you.
[05:31] Kaoru
    There's a reason I went to all this trouble.
[05:34] Kaoru
    Since that whole commotion in Drisard,
[05:36] Kaoru
    word's gotten out in the surrounding
    countries that the angel and her party are here.
[05:41] Kaoru
    I'll see you later, then.
[05:43] Emil
    Right. We'll report to the Atelier.
[05:46] Kaoru
    So when we entered this town, we
    pretended to be complete strangers.
[05:51] Kaoru
    I posted the quest at the guild
    so we'd end up living together.
[05:55] Kaoru
    This will also show people how
    quick-witted these two are,
[05:58] Kaoru
    despite their lack of experience.
[06:00] Kaoru
    I can't keep them with
    me forever, after all.
[06:06] Kaoru
    I need to get them strong enough
    to strike out on their own.
[06:09] Reyette
    Big Sis Kaoru?
[06:11] Kaoru
    Let's shop at the market
    before we head back.
[06:13] Reyette
    Okay!
[06:20] Roland
    Uh, is this really necessary?
[06:22] Francette
    As long as we're in this town, we're
    supposed to be strangers to Kaoru.
[06:26] Francette
    So guarding her in secret is my duty
    as the goddess's guardian knight.
[06:32] Francette
    Why do Emil and Belle get to live with
    her while we're roughing it out here?
[06:37] Francette
    I'd be happy to stay in the storage shed!
[06:41] Roland
    I'm sure she just wanted
    to give us our space.
[06:44] Roland
    You know, we are engaged,
    after all. It's time we—
[06:48] Francette
    If you're tired, you can
    head back to the inn.
[06:51] Francette
    I'm going to continue to guard Kaoru,
[06:54] Francette
    and then keep an eye
    on things outside the shop.
[06:57] Roland
    You will... be back by nightfall, right?
[07:00] Roland
    We should have dinner on
    our own every now and—
[07:02] Francette
    What are you saying?!
[07:03] Francette
    The shop just opened! It could
    be a target for thieves!
[07:07] Francette
    I'll find an appropriate
    place to stay up all night!
[07:10] Roland
    D'oh...
[07:12] Reyette
    We bought lots!
[07:14] Kaoru
    Yep.
[07:15] Kaoru
    I guess it'd be a bad idea
    to use my Item Box here.
[07:19] Gum
    Hey, can I carry your stuff for you?
[07:21] Gum
    I'll do it for two coppers.
[07:25] Gum
    So yeah, that area is our territory.
[07:29] Gum
    Oh, but we don't steal.
[07:31] Gum
    We carry people's purchases and
    help shopkeepers and stuff.
[07:34] Gum
    We earn it fair and square.
[07:36] Kaoru
    You know, I have some kids in
    my party who were orphans, too.
[07:40] Kaoru
    One of them tried to steal my coin pouch.
[07:44] Kaoru
    The other was near death from illness.
[07:47] Kaoru
    But now they're guarding
    my shop as rookie hunters.
[07:53] Kaoru
    Oh, right. Is there anyone in
    your group who's sick or hurt?
[07:58] Gum
    No. Why?
[08:00] Kaoru
    This is my shop. Reyette's Atelier.
[08:04] Kaoru
    It's a drugstore.
[08:05] Gum
    What?! You own a drugstore?!
[08:10] Gum
    But aren't you just a kid?
[08:11] Gum
    Can a kid own a shop?
[08:14] Kaoru
    Yeah, that's the thing.
[08:16] Kaoru
    These looks sure made renting
    the shop a challenge.
[08:22] Kaoru
    Here's your pay.
[08:23] Gum
    Thanks!
[08:24] Gum
    My name's Gum. Let me know
    if you need help again!
[08:30] Kaoru
    It might not be a bad idea to start a branch
    of Eyes of the Goddess in this town.
[08:38] Gum
    So today's earnings...
[08:40] Gum
    Thirty coppers in all, huh?
[08:42] Gum
    Guess it's just bread
    for dinner. No soup today.
[08:47] Emil
    Is there someone called Gum here?
[08:51] Gum
    Yeah, I'm Gum.
[08:54] Belle
    We have a delivery from Kaoru.
[08:57] Kids
    Wow, that looks so good!
[08:58] Belle
    We'll cook dinner for you.
[09:13] Gum
    Hey...
[09:14] Gum
    Do you two work at that girl's drugstore?
[09:18] Emil
    That's right.
[09:19] Gum
    Does that mean... you were orphans?
[09:23] Emil
    Yeah. Belle and I were both orphans.
     It was a horrible life.
[09:26] Belle
    Until we met Kaoru, that is.
[09:29] Gum
    Tell me more!
[09:30] Gum
    How did you get to be so successful?
[09:32] Gum
    How can an orphan become a hunter?
[09:35] Gum
    How is Kaoru able to own that shop?
[09:37] Gum
    Please tell me! I want to be like you guys!
[09:45] Emil
    Uh, I mean...
[09:47] Emil
    Well, this isn't good. I can't tell
    them Kaoru is the goddess's angel.
[09:52] Emil
    Belle?!
[09:54] Lt. Col.
    Is this the shop?
[09:57] Subordinate
    Yes, sir.
[09:58] Kaoru
    Reyette, go upstairs and hide.
[10:01] Reyette
    Okay.
[10:02] Kaoru
    Welcome.
[10:09] Lt. Col.
    Is the owner here?
[10:10] Kaoru
    I'm the owner, actually.
[10:12] Lt. Col.
    No, not the one holding down the fort.
[10:15] Lt. Col.
    I mean the one who owns the shop.
[10:16] Kaoru
    Yes, that's me.
[10:19] Kaoru
    I signed the lease agreement, I pay
    the rent, I order and sell the goods,
[10:24] Kaoru
    and I get hounded by soldiers
    all the time. It's all my job.
[10:28] Lt. Col.
    So... you're Reyette?
[10:31] Kaoru
    No, I'm Kaoru.
[10:32] Lt. Col.
    Huh?
[10:34] Kaoru
    So you want to buy a whole bunch of
    soldier syndrome potions in bulk?
[10:40] Lt. Col.
    Yeah, that's right.
[10:43] Lt. Col.
    Oh, my apologies. I haven't
    introduced myself.
[10:47] Lt. Col.
    I am the Royal Capital Army's
    Second Battalion Commander,
[10:50] Lt. Col.
    Lieutenant Colonel Nevas von Vonsas.
[10:52] Kaoru
    A battalion commander?
[10:55] Lt. Col.
    I've heard all about your potions.
[10:57] Lt. Col.
    They're the reason I came all
    the way out here in person.
[11:01] Lt. Col.
    You know, the Royal Capital Army
    is made up of ten battalions,
[11:04] Lt. Col.
    with ten thousand men between them.
[11:06] Lt. Col.
    Of course, half of those are
    non-combatant personnel, but...
[11:10] Lt. Col.
    I don't think it's such a
    bad deal for your shop.
[11:13] Kaoru
    But if there are ten battalions,
[11:16] Kaoru
    that means there are nine others
    who share your rank, right?
[11:20] Kaoru
    And if they all ask for
    that many potions, too—
[11:22] Lt. Col.
    How about this?
[11:24] Lt. Col.
    I'll personally take on the task
    of delivering the potions.
[11:28] Lt. Col.
    The other nine guys would probably
    just send petty officers to do it,
[11:32] Lt. Col.
    but if you give them my name and turn
    them away, they'll have to back off.
[11:37] Lt. Col.
    Not all army men are as
    quick on the uptake as me.
[11:43] Lt. Col.
    Relax! I'll sell them to the army's
    medical officers at the original price.
[11:47] Lt. Col.
    Medical expenses are covered by the kingdom,
    so all soldiers of the Royal Capital Army
[11:51] Lt. Col.
    will be equally supplied with
    soldier syndrome medication for free.
[11:54] Kaoru
    And what do you get out of this?
[11:57] Kaoru
    If you sell them for the original
    price and distribute them equally...
[12:00] Lt. Col.
    Well, there are some things a civilian
    pharmacist doesn't need to know.
[12:06] Lt. Col.
    Am I wrong?
[12:11] Kaoru
    Very well, then. I accept your deal.
[12:15] Lt. Col.
    I appreciate it.
[12:16] Kaoru
    It's true that this shouldn't
    be a bad deal for our shop.
[12:21] Kaoru
    It should turn huge profits,
[12:23] Kaoru
    and if I have the army's protection as the
    one who supplies soldier syndrome potions,
[12:27] Kaoru
    my safety is assured.
[12:29] Kaoru
    Plus, if I meet more people
    through the lieutenant colonel,
[12:33] Kaoru
    maybe I'll find a husband.
[12:36] Kaoru
    My easy life in another world
    thanks to my OP ability
[12:39] Kaoru
    might actually happen this time!
[12:46] Gum
    Thanks for giving us work again today.
[12:49] Gum
    So... um...
[12:52] Gum
    Do you think we can be like Emil and Belle?
[12:56] Gum
    I talked to them about all the
    stuff they learned from you.
[13:01] Gum
    So I'm gonna try my best!
[13:03] Gum
    We don't have to give up on everything
    just because we're orphans!
[13:06] Gum
    Right?
[13:08] Kaoru
    Right. Everyone has value.
[13:11] Kaoru
    And if you give up, the game's over.
[13:14] Gum
    Yeah!
[13:16] Kaoru
    Oh, that's right.
[13:18] Kaoru
    See this?
[13:19] Gum
    A flute?
[13:21] Kaoru
    I thought I could use it when
    I want you to do some work for me.
[13:25] Kaoru
    That's three cases, or 72 bottles, of the
    potion that costs three small gold coins,
[13:29] Kaoru
    and one case, or 24 bottles, of
    the one that costs three silver.
[13:32] Kaoru
    That's a total of 22 gold coins,
     three small gold coins, and two silver coins.
[13:38] Lt. Col.
    All right. Here you go.
[13:41] Lt. Col.
    You've taken care of a
    lot of problems for me.
[13:45] Lt. Col.
    Thanks for that.
[13:46] Kaoru
    Wow...
[13:48] Kaoru
    Oh, um... Would you mind if I took
    a look around this facility?
SIGN    Drugstore: Reyette's Atelier
[13:59] Lt. Col.
    I get it. Walking around wearing
    those is great advertising.
[14:03] Lt. Col.
    That's using your head.
[14:04] Kaoru
    You seem to have thought things
    through quite thoroughly yourself.
[14:09] Lt. Col.
    What high praise!
[14:11] Lt. Col.
    That's communications training.
[14:14] Lt. Col.
    At night, they put candles in those boxes
[14:16] Lt. Col.
    and use the flickering
    lights to send signals.
[14:19] Lt. Col.
    I can read them, generally speaking,
[14:22] Lt. Col.
    but not when they move that quickly.
[14:24] Kaoru
    "Who is that?"
[14:26] Kaoru
    "The drugstore sisters."
[14:27] Kaoru
    "Why did they come here?"
[14:29] Kaoru
    "To see me."
[14:31] Kaoru
    "The younger one's here for me."
[14:33] Kaoru
    Excuse me! Can I hit him?
[14:35] Lt. Col.
    How can you read that?!
[14:36] Kaoru
    Uh...
[14:37] Lt. Col.
    And yes, I permit you to hit him.
[14:42] Kaoru
    I didn't realize that would fall under
[14:44] Kaoru
    being able to read and
    write in all languages.
[14:46] Kaoru
    I gotta be careful.
[14:48] Reyette
    Welelcom—
[14:51] Kaoru
    What? You haven't gotten your potions?
[14:54] Captain
    That's right! Lieutenant Colonel Vonsas is
    keeping them all for the Royal Capital Army!
[14:58] Captain
    My Royal Guard Army hasn't
    gotten a single one!
[15:01] Captain
    And I heard the capital guards
    are being treated the same way!
[15:04] Kaoru
    That can't be...
[15:06] (Flashback) Lt. Col.
    You've taken care of a
    lot of problems for me.
[15:10] (Flashback) Lt. Col.
    Thanks for that.
[15:11] Kaoru
    Darn it. I knew there must've
    been something to it.
[15:14] Kaoru
    I understand.
[15:16] Kaoru
    I'll ensure the Royal Guard Army receives
    priority on delivery of the next shipment.
[15:21] Kaoru
    And I'll make separate arrangements
    for the capital guards.
[15:25] Kaoru
    Please inform their leader of that.
[15:27] Captain
    W-Well! I appreciate that!
[15:30] Captain
    Thanks a lot, pharmacist!
[15:33] Kaoru
    I messed up.
[15:35] Kaoru
    I should be more careful with that
    lieutenant colonel from now on.
[15:46] Kaoru
    Welcome!
[15:46] Reyette
    Welelcome!
[15:48] Count
    I am not a customer. I am this
    shop's landlord, Count Olam.
[15:53] Count
    Are you Kaoru, the tenant?
[15:56] Kaoru
    Let's see here...
[15:57] Kaoru
    "Your rent will be paid in the form
    of 50% of your business's profits."
[16:03] Kaoru
    Half of my profits? Is this a joke?
[16:06] Kaoru
    No consideration for my expenses at all?
[16:08] Kaoru
    And these terms...
[16:10] Kaoru
    "All of the shop's merchandise
    belongs to the landlord,
[16:13] Kaoru
    so you will honor his instructions
    regarding pricing and sales."
[16:16] Kaoru
    I'm supposed to share my suppliers
    and production methods, too?
[16:20] Kaoru
    Unbelievable!
[16:21] Kaoru
    Excuse me, but under these terms,
[16:24] Kaoru
    I'd go deeper into debt the more I sell!
[16:27] Count
    So just raise your prices, then.
[16:29] Count
    Double them, and you'll make
    what you're making now.
[16:32] Count
    Triple them, and you'll make even more.
[16:34] Count
    Try using your head a little.
[16:39] Reyette
    Big Sis Kaoru?
[16:41] Kaoru
    You want me to use my head? Okay. I hear you.
[16:47] Kaoru
    Understood. I'll agree
    to these contract terms.
[16:50] Kaoru
    There are two parts to the paperwork, right?
[16:52] Count
    Y-Yes, of course.
[16:55] Count
    Let's get started. Realtor,
    bring us the paperwork.
SIGN    R-Right away.
[17:01] Kaoru
    I get it.
[17:02] Kaoru
    When an elderly couple
    previously owned this shop,
[17:04] Kaoru
    he abused his power as a noble
[17:06] Kaoru
    and basically threatened them into
    selling him the rights to this shop.
SIGN    Which is why there's really nothing I can do.
SIGN    If you don't like it, you can always call off the rent contract.
SIGN    But... why did you agree to such unreasonable terms? Most would—
[17:23] Kaoru
    Most would turn it down, I'm sure.
[17:26] Kaoru
    Most would.
[17:29] Kaoru
    Say, I'd like to ask for
    some advice... or more like a favor.
[17:41] Count
    Well, aren't we booming
    first thing in the morning?
[17:43] Count
    I guess I'll claim my half
    of yesterday's profits
[17:46] Count
    and grab any merchandise that looks useful.
[17:49] Count
    Not that this shop's profits
    mean anything to me.
[17:53] Count
    What I'm after is the production method
    of the soldier syndrome medicine.
[17:57] Count
    Once I have that...
[18:00] Count
    Move! You'll get my clothes dirty!
[18:03] Emil/Belle
    Welcome.
[18:04] Count
    Wha—
[18:12] Count
    Wh-What is the meaning of this?!
[18:14] Count
    Where did those two sisters go?!
[18:16] Emil
    Oh, the owner is at the shop today.
[18:19] Count
    At the shop?! Isn't this the shop?!
[18:22] Belle
    No, the branch. That's where the pharmacist is.
[18:26] Count
    Nonsense! It's been one night! How did
     she move that much merchandi—
[18:30] Belle
    As of today, this location is a storehouse,
    residence, and boxed lunch shop.
[18:34] Emil
    Of course, per your terms, we'll pay
     half our profits as rent.
[18:38] Emil
    It won't be very much, though.
[18:41] Belle
    If you want, we'll teach you
    how we make the lunches, too.
[18:45] Count
    I have no need for that!
    Show me to this branch at once!
[18:50] Count
    Is the owner here?!
[18:52] Kaoru
    Welcome!
[18:52] Reyette
    Welelcome!
[18:54] Count
    How dare you pull such a trick?!
[18:56] Kaoru
    I just used my head. Remember? My head?
[19:00] Count
    Don't get cute with me!
[19:02] Count
    Do you know what happens to
    people who make me angry?!
[19:04] Kaoru
    Nothing, probably.
[19:07] Kaoru
    If you want to buy the
    rights to this building,
[19:10] Kaoru
    I'll just move my shop to another location.
[19:13] Kaoru
    I could... I don't know...
[19:15] Kaoru
    talk to Lieutenant Colonel Vonsas
    of the Royal Capital Army
[19:18] Kaoru
    about setting up shop
    right on the army base.
[19:24] Kaoru
    And if I really run into trouble,
     I can close up shop
[19:27] Kaoru
    and relocate to another country.
[19:28] Kaoru
    Of course, before leaving, I'd have
    to tell everyone I was unable
[19:33] Kaoru
    to meet Count Olam's unreasonable terms.
[19:37] Roland
    You've lost this round.
[19:40] Roland
    You nobles should really learn when to quit.
[19:43] Roland
    Or if you still insist...
[19:47] Count
    So taking this further would only
    sully my name and gain me nothing?
[19:52] Count
    Very well. I'll sell you your shop back.
[19:55] Count
    I can't have unseemly rumors getting around.
[19:58] Count
    I won't bother you anymore. Just go
     back to what you were doing!
[20:02] Kaoru
    Understood.
[20:03] Kaoru
    Oh, but you're not thinking of selling it
    back to me for more than I sold it for...
[20:08] Kaoru
    Are you?
[20:11] Count
    O-Of course not.
SIGN    Let's go, realtor! Get moving!
[20:20] Roland
    See? Having a royal's authority
    can be handy at times, right?
[20:24] Francette
    Did you see the look on that count's face?
[20:26] Emil
    I wish Belle could have seen it.
[20:29] Kaoru
    And with that, this one-day-only
    branch is closed.
[20:32] Kaoru
    Let's clean up and get everything
    back to our main shop.

    Clean up!

    You'll lower our rent, right?
SIGN    Uh, I...

    Oh, we're done with the lunches.
[21:07] Kaoru
    We took care of the count,
    so tomorrow we're back to—
[21:10] Belle
    We can't stop!
[21:11] Belle
    I sent some people home
    crying because we sold out!
[21:14] Belle
    And we already have advance orders!
[21:16] Kaoru
    Advance orders?
[21:18] Belle
    Yes, for fifty lunches.
[21:20] Belle
    We need enough to sell, too, so we
     have to make twice that many!

    Wh-Wh-Wha?!

    Come on, now! There's lots to do!
[21:28] Francette

[03:59] Kaoru
    Hmm...
[04:01] Kaoru
    We call ourselves a drugstore,
[04:04] Kaoru
    but we sell boxed lunches,
    cosmetics, shampoo, conditioner,
[04:08] Kaoru
    and even glass products and ceramics.
[04:10] Kaoru
    We're basically a general store now.
[04:13] Kaoru
    Should I just make us a convenience store?
[04:15] Kaoru
    Hey, I could get Roland to start
    a boxed lunch delivery service.
[04:20] Roland
    Uma Eats is here!
[04:24] Roland
    I have the feeling Kaoru is getting
    some terrible idea again.
[04:29] Francette
    Huh?
[04:31] Francette
    Kaoru, do we have any more of the potions
    that reduce fever and cure coughing?
[04:36] Kaoru
    What?
[04:37] Kaoru
    That's weird. I just put more
    on the shelves yesterday.

    Let them in.
[06:28] Kaoru
    Oh...
[06:29] Kaoru
    Were you busy? Shall we
    wait until you're done?
[06:32] Lt. Col.
    No, we just finished.
[06:35] Lt. Col.
    Let me introduce you.
[06:37] Lt. Col.
    This is Company Commander Larsrick.
[06:40] Lt. Col.
    These are the drugstore sisters I spoke of.
[06:42] Kaoru
    Hello.
[06:44] Kaoru
    I'll leave them here.
[06:46] Lt. Col.
    I heard the news.
[06:47] Lt. Col.
    You talked down a noble who
    tried to mess with you, huh?
[06:50] Kaoru
    Oh, I only chased off a little
    bug that was hanging around.
[06:54] Kaoru
    More importantly...
[06:56] Lt. Col.
    What?
[06:57] Kaoru
    I've been told the royal guards and capital
    guards haven't received their potions.
[07:02] Lt. Col.
    Huh? What do they have to do with anything?
[07:05] Kaoru
    Huh?
[07:06] Lt. Col.
    I haven't the foggiest idea
    what you're talking about.
[07:10] Kaoru
    He meant no ill will at all.
[07:13] Kaoru
    Which means my own ignorance was to blame.
[07:17] Kaoru
    I must reflect.
[07:21] Kaoru
    This document...
[07:24] Kaoru
    Huh?
[07:25] Kaoru
    You sold them illegally?!
[07:29] Kaoru
    You used the national
    budget to buy my potions,
[07:32] Kaoru
    then sold them cheap for a profit?!
[07:34] Kaoru
    And you didn't even try to
    hide your embezzlement!
[07:37] Kaoru
    You made the deal right here in front of me!
[07:39] Kaoru
    What do you take me for?!
[07:41] Kaoru
    Our deal ends now!
[07:44] Lt. Col.
    Wait, wait, wait, wait!
[07:46] Lt. Col.
    What are you suddenly so angry about?
[07:49] Kaoru
    What is this document?!
[07:51] Kaoru
    "Top-quality soldier syndrome
    medication for two small gold coins,
[07:55] Kaoru
    ten grams of pepper for
    three small gold coins"!
[07:59] Lt. Col.
    Y-You can read that?
[08:01] Kaoru
    Of course I can read and write
    in the language of this country!
[08:04] Lt. Col.
    N-No, what I meant was...
[08:06] Lt. Col.
    You can read the document seized
[08:09] Lt. Col.
    from a drop site of a gang that's been
     embezzling military supplies,
[08:13] Lt. Col.
    despite it being written in code?
[08:15] Kaoru
    Huh?
[08:18] Kaoru
    What?
[08:21] Kaoru
    D-Don't tell me...
[08:22] Kaoru
    The ability to read, write, and speak
    all languages in this world...
[08:26] Kaoru
    includes coded languages, too?!
[08:29] Kaoru
    P-Please forget that just happened...
[08:31] Lt. Col.
    I don't think so!
[08:33] Kaoru
    Guess not, huh?
[08:34] Lt. Col.
    What is the meaning of this?!
[08:36] Lt. Col.
    Why can you read the code
    that embezzling gang uses?!
[08:39] Kaoru
    Uh-oh!
[08:40] Lt. Col.
    It's not that I suspect
    you of being one of them.
[08:43] Lt. Col.
    If you were working with them, you wouldn't
    so blatantly show me you could read it,
[08:46] Lt. Col.
    unless you were a complete idiot.
[08:48] Lt. Col.
    And you're not an idiot.
    Not that much of an idiot.
[08:51] Kaoru
    Why did you rephrase that part?
[08:54] Kaoru
    I-I mean, it's a simple code
    children use to play tricks.
[08:58] Kaoru
    Anyone should be able to
    figure it out at a glance.
[09:01] Kaoru
    See, if you read it vertically, the
    first number you see is four, right?
[09:04] Lt. Col.
    Hey. Take notes.
[09:05] Kaoru
    So you replace each letter with
    whatever comes four letters after it.
[09:05] CC
    R-Right.
[09:08] Kaoru
    And the second number you see when
    reading vertically is three,
[09:11] Kaoru
    so you take every third letter
    and put them together. Then...
[09:14] Kaoru
    And that's how you do it.
[09:17] Lt. Col.
    And you finished that incredibly convoluted
    conversion process in an instant?
[09:22] Lt. Col.
    All in your head?
[09:24] Kaoru
    Huh?
[09:25] Kaoru
    You have to take notes for
    something this simple?
[09:29] Kaoru
    Oh, jeez! I sound like some
    delusional middle school edgelord!
[09:34] Lt. Col.
    What you did the other day, too...
[09:37] Lt. Col.
    None of that should be humanly possible.
[09:39] Kaoru
    Crap, this is bad!
[09:41] Kaoru
    This is where they figure out that I'm the
    goddess's angel and make a big deal of it!
[09:46] Lt. Col.
    Are you...
[09:46] Kaoru
    Here it comes!
[09:49] Lt. Col.
    ...interested in joining the army?
[09:51] Kaoru
    Huh?
[09:53] Lt. Col.
    I could recruit you as
    an intelligence officer
[09:55] Lt. Col.
    with the rank of second lieutenant—
    no, first lieutenant!
[09:58] Kaoru
    Ooh, first lieutenant!
[10:00] Kaoru
    What an honor to go straight
    to the leadership ranks!
[10:02] Kaoru
    Wait, like hell I'm joining the army!
[10:05] Lt. Col.
    I don't think it's a bad deal.
[10:07] Kaoru
    I wouldn't be able to
    make medicines anymore!
[10:09] Lt. Col.
    No problem. I'll let you
    do it as a second job.
[10:12] Kaoru
    It's still a problem for me!
[10:17] Kaoru
    I managed to escape being recruited.
[10:20] Kaoru
    I've gotta be careful not to
    let anyone find out who I am.
[10:23] Kaoru
    I'll have to be more careful than
    usual with the potions I make, too.
[10:28] Three
    Welcome!
[10:30] Reyette
    Wewcome!
[10:32] Kaoru
    Yeah, that's gonna be certified as a
    traditional performance art pretty soon.
[10:36] Kaoru
    Huh?
[10:37] Kaoru
    You're the company commander I met earlier.
[10:40] CC
    I'm actually here with
    a confidential request.
[10:43] CC
    Could you come with me to my home?
[10:47] Kaoru
    A confidential request?
[10:50] Kaoru
    Seems shady...
[10:52] Kaoru
    But...
[10:53] Kaoru
    The fee for a house call
    is one small gold coin.
[10:56] Kaoru
    It seems like it might be interesting!
[11:00] Kaoru
    I was afraid the company commander
    was part of that gang
[11:04] Kaoru
    and came here to get rid of me
    because I can read their code,
[11:08] Kaoru
    but that doesn't seem to be the case.
[11:11] Kaoru
    Of course, if anything does happen,
[11:14] Kaoru
    I'm sure she'll leap right into action.
[11:16] Kaoru
    Just how many hours is Fran
    clocking as my guard, anyway?
[11:20] Kaoru
    Every single day? What kind of
    exploitative business am I running?!
[11:24] CC
    We're here.
[11:26] Kaoru/Reyette
    Huh?
[11:28] Kaoru/Reyette
    What?!
[11:31] Servants
    Welcome home, sir.
[11:34] Kaoru
    U-Um, Commander, are you a domain lord?
[11:38] CC
    Hm? Yes, I am.
[11:41] CC
    I am Sevos von Larsrick,
    also known as Viscount Larsrick.
[11:48] Kaoru
    The lord of a domain,
    who's inherited a peerage...
[11:52] Kaoru
    But...
[11:54] Kaoru
    The furnishings in here are pretty old.
[11:57] Kaoru
    So he might not actually be that affluent.
[12:01] ServantA
    I've brought tea.
[12:03] ServantA
    Enjoy.
[12:05] Reyette
    Thank you!
[12:09] Reyette
    Yummy!
[12:10] ServantA
    There's enough for seconds.
[12:12] Kaoru
    Thank you.
[12:14] ServantA
    Pardon me.
[12:18] CC
    So the request I have for you is...
[12:22] Kaoru
    Here it comes.
[12:24] CC
    I want you to find a treasure.
[12:30] Kaoru
    A treasure hunt?!
[12:36] Kaoru
    A treasure hunt? Really?
[12:38] Kaoru
    I thought this was gonna be
    some really serious request.
[12:41] CC
    This is an extremely serious matter
    for the Larsrick household.
[12:46] CC
    The Larsrick domain has suffered from
    crop failures for a few years now.
[12:51] CC
    We've managed to get by so far,
[12:53] CC
    but both our treasury and our reserve
    stores are nearly depleted.
[12:58] CC
    The slightest incident...
[13:01] CC
    could prove fatal to our household.
[13:03] Kaoru
    So I was right. He's barely scraping by.
[13:06] CC
    Normally, I would have no choice but to go
    deep in debt to some high-ranking noble
[13:10] CC
    and just accept the hit to
    my reputation as viscount.
[13:13] Kaoru
    "Normally"?
[13:15] CC
    The thing is, there's a hidden
    treasure in this house.
[13:18] CC
    At least, there's supposed to be.
[13:22] CC
    Several generations ago,
[13:23] CC
    a large ship with no one on it
    drifted ashore in my domain.
[13:27] CC
    It was apparently loaded down with
    mountains of untouched gold and jewels.
[13:31] CC
    Crop failures were a problem
    at that time, as well,
[13:34] CC
    so my ancestors, facing a
    crisis, liquefied it all
[13:38] CC
    and used some of it to overcome that crisis.
[13:41] CC
    The location of the remaining gold
[13:43] CC
    was passed down verbally to
    the heads of the household...
[13:46] CC
    but the viscount three generations
    before me died in an accident.
[13:51] CC
    All that remains now is this document.
[13:54] CC
    Could you decipher it, please?
[13:56] Kaoru
    I see.
[13:58] Kaoru
    So the location where it's
    hidden is written in code.
[14:01] Kaoru
    Yep, always gotta have
    a backup just in case.
[14:04] Kaoru
    And that stupid section chief forgot
    to make backups for three years!
[14:11] Kaoru
    And who had to clean up after him?!
[14:13] CC
    Is something the matter?
[14:14] Kaoru
    O-Oh... Just talking to myself.
[14:17] Kaoru
    All right, I'll decipher this now.
[14:20] Kaoru
    "Use the treasure spoken of herein only when
[14:22] Kaoru
    the Larsrick domain is in crisis and
    possesses no other means to escape it.
[14:27] Kaoru
    Colex von Larsrick."
[14:29] Kaoru
    Who could figure this out?!
[14:35] Kaoru
    I can't make it out... d'oh-ho-ho.
[14:37] Kaoru
    Okay, that was creepy!
[14:40] ServantA
    W-Well, then, if you'll pardon me...
[14:44] Kaoru
    This isn't a code at all!
[14:47] Kaoru
    How is this supposed to tell
    us where the treasure is?
[14:50] CC
    Huh? Can you not perceive the writer's
    intentions just by reading it?
[14:55] Kaoru
    I'm not a psychic or anything.
[14:58] Kaoru
    It's not like I can read the residual
    thoughts of the person who wrote it.
[15:02] Kaoru
    So when someone says to me,
    "Y'all fancy some ochazuke?"
[15:06] Kaoru
    I might hear, "Would you
    like some ochazuke?"
[15:09] Kaoru
    But "Get out!
    You've overstayed your welcome!"
[15:11] Kaoru
    is not a message I can pick up on.
[15:15] CC
    So you don't know...
[15:18] Kaoru
    Anyway, you just need the location
    of the treasure, right?
[15:21] CC
    That's right.
[15:23] CC
    But my grandfather, my father,
    and I have searched all over the place,
[15:27] CC
    and we can't even find any clues to it.
[15:29] CC
    We know it was brought to
    a mansion in the capital
[15:32] CC
    since it'd be dangerous to have it in a
    mansion near the border, but that's all.
[15:38] Kaoru
    Super-effective, super-compact metal-detector-
    shaped container of healing potion, please!
SIGN    Metal Detector
[15:46] Kaoru
    Metal detector!
[15:50] CC
    Wh-What is that?
[15:51] Kaoru
    A device that detects nearby
    gold and tells you where it is.
[15:55] CC
    What?!
[15:56] Kaoru
    Oh, b-but it only reacts to
    very pure, refined gold.
[16:01] Kaoru
    And its range is very small,
[16:03] Kaoru
    so it won't locate gold mines or anything.
[16:07] Kaoru
    Anyway, let's give it a try.
[16:09] Kaoru
    Let's see. If we press this button...
[16:14] Kaoru
    Ah, it's this way!
[16:17] Kaoru
    Oh... It reacted to the gold in your wallet.
[16:22] Kaoru
    Change settings! Only detect gold
    in amounts of 300 grams or more!
[16:29] Kaoru
    Oh, it's just upstairs!
[16:32] Kaoru
    Reyette, be a good girl and wait here.
[16:34] Reyette
    'Kay!
[16:40] Kaoru
    This way.
[16:43] Kaoru
    In here.
[16:45] CC
    Th-The treasury?
[16:53] Kaoru
    Uh...
[16:55] CC
    I've already sold everything
    worth any amount of money.
[16:58] Kaoru
    So I can see.
[17:01] Kaoru
    Would you mind opening this anyway?
[17:04] CC
    Sure.
[17:09] CC
    This is the last of our household's funds.
[17:12] Kaoru
    W-Wait just a moment.
[17:15] Kaoru
    Okay, let's exclude this gold, too.
[17:22] Kaoru
    And... it's not finding
    anything within range.
[17:26] Kaoru
    Thank you very much.
[17:33] Kaoru
    I hate to say it, but there are no gold
    nuggets or coins in this mansion.
[17:39] Kaoru
    No, wait a minute.
[17:41] Kaoru
    I set it to find gold in amounts
    of 300 grams or more, right?
[17:45] Kaoru
    A gold coin weighs less than
    ten grams, which means...
[17:49] Kaoru
    There can't be any more than 150 grams here.
[17:52] Kaoru
    The device shouldn't have led us to this!
[17:55] Kaoru
    Which means...
[17:56] Kaoru
    Detect only 500 grams or more!
[18:02] Kaoru
    That's it!
[18:05] CC
    What is it?
[18:11] Kaoru
    I know where it's hidden.
[18:13] Kaoru
    It's right here,
[18:14] Kaoru
    inside the wall of the treasury!
[18:16] CC
    Who in the world would hide it there?
[18:19] CC
    Wait, that's exactly why, isn't it?!
[18:22] Kaoru
    Now let's tear down this wall!
[18:24] CC
    Right!
[18:36] Kaoru
    Oh?
[18:40] Kaoru
    Well, I'll just be going now.
[18:42] CC
    Wait a minute!
[18:46] CC
    Just put me in this hole
    and close it up behind me.
[18:49] Kaoru
    I'm sorry...
[18:51] Reyette
    Kaoru, can I have some medicine?
[18:54] Kaoru
    Huh?
[18:55] Reyette
    My throat hurts.
[18:57] Kaoru
    Maybe you caught a cold. Open wide for me.
[19:01] Reyette
    Not like that.
[19:02] Kaoru
    Huh?
[19:03] Reyette
    Look.
[19:04] Kaoru
    Did a bug bite you?
[19:06] Reyette
    Uh-huh. I scratched it, and now it hurts.
[19:10] Kaoru
    Here you go. Perfect for bug bites.
[19:15] Reyette
    Thanks!
[19:16] Kaoru
    You startled me.
[19:18] Kaoru
    When you said your throat hurt,
    I thought you were sick.
[19:22] Kaoru
    But you meant it hurt on the
    outside, not the inside.
[19:26] Kaoru
    Not the inside, but the outside?
[19:32] Kaoru
    Company Commander, I need something
    hard that you wouldn't mind damaging!
[19:36] CC
    Huh? Okay...
[19:41] CC
    Hey! Wh-What are you doing?
[19:50] Kaoru
    Not inside, but outside.
[19:52] Kaoru
    The vault itself was the treasure.
[19:57] CC
    Father! Ancestors! And Goddess Celestine!
[20:02] CC
    The people of the Larsrick domain
    will overcome this crisis
[20:06] CC
    and proceed bravely into the future!
[20:09] Kaoru
    But if you experience periods
    of crop failure that often,
[20:13] Kaoru
    won't you just use up all this treasure
[20:15] Kaoru
    and end up falling into ruin anyway?
[20:17] CC
    What?
[20:18] Kaoru
    Buying your way out of this with money
[20:21] Kaoru
    is just a temporary fix, not a solution.
[20:23] Kaoru
    You need to solve the root of the problem.
[20:27] CC
    But what else am I supposed to do, then?
[20:30] Kaoru
    Analyze exactly why your crops have failed.
[20:34] Kaoru
    If the problem is unseasonably cool summers,
[20:36] Kaoru
    you can get seed rice from up north
    that fares better in the cold
[20:39] Kaoru
    and use the gold to fund test cultivation.
[20:41] Kaoru
    Or if it's caused by droughts,
[20:43] Kaoru
    you could dig a deeper well or
    run a channel in from the river.
[20:47] Kaoru
    For risk diversification,
[20:49] Kaoru
    you could also farm things like
    corn and potatoes, not just wheat.
[20:53] Kaoru
    Potatoes might not turn into as much money,
[20:57] Kaoru
    but when things go wrong,
    lives matter over profits, right?
[21:00] CC
    I see...
[21:01] Kaoru
    Try to use it as effectively as you can.
[21:04] Kaoru
    Yeah, I think I did one small
    gold coin's worth of work here.
[21:09] CC
    Thank you for your help today.
[21:11] CC
    I've prepared a meal, as you can
    see. Please eat before you go.
[21:14] Reyette
    Yay!
[21:16] Kaoru
    Um...
[21:18] CC
    I'll introduce you.
[21:19] CC
    This is my wife and my
    two sons, Augustan and Clovis.
[21:22] Kaoru
    Why is the whole family here?
[21:25] Kaoru
    Wait... Don't tell me...
[21:28] Kaoru
    He's fallen for me?!
[21:30] Kaoru
    I see it! I see it now!

    marrying into a viscount's family!
[21:36] Kaoru
    We're certainly not wealthy,
[21:38] Kaoru
    but we work hard at river management
    and agricultural reform.
[21:40] Kaoru
    The company commander's family
    values me as a very capable wife.
[21:44] Kaoru
    Then I have a baby, and everyone
    in the domain loves me.
[21:47] Kaoru
    Yeah, that could be pretty nice!
[21:50] 1st Son
    Kaoru, I'd like to ask a favor of you.
[21:52] Kaoru
    H-Here it comes!
[21:53] 2nd Son
    No, wait a minute! Me first!
[21:56] 1st Son
    No, me first!

    Don't fight over me!

    Information is being strictly
    regulated to prevent panic.
[00:42] Lt. Col.
    That being the case,
    this must not leave this room...
[00:46] Lt. Col.
    but we've pinpointed the
    source of the outbreak.
[00:54] Lt. Col.
    The first case was observed
    in the village of Goa,
[00:56] Lt. Col.
    east of the capital.
[00:59] Lt. Col.
    The army is currently keeping
    the village under lockdown.
[01:01] Roland
    But we're far past all hope
    of that doing any good.
[01:06] Roland
    It's unthinkable that a national course
    of action hasn't been announced yet.
[01:10] Roland
    Is the royal family of
    Jusral that incompetent?
[01:15] Francette
    If the army's lockdown continues,
[01:17] Francette
    they'll eventually run out of food.
[01:20] Francette
    The villagers will only
    grow increasingly anxious.
[01:23] Emil
    And more children will lose their parents.
[01:26] Belle
    I wish we could do something.
[01:31] Kaoru
    To keep quiet and wait for the storm to pass
[01:35] Kaoru
    would probably be the
    smartest thing to do here.
[01:38] Kaoru
    Everyone in this room has
    been given the potion I made,
[01:42] Kaoru
    as have Gum and his friends.
[01:45] Kaoru
    There's no chance of them
    catching the disease.
[01:48] Kaoru
    If I want to continue living in this
    city as an ordinary drugstore owner,
[01:54] Kaoru
    I should do nothing.
[01:56] Kaoru
    Yeah, like hell I can do that!
[02:02] Kaoru
    So what if my identity gets out?
[02:03] Kaoru
    I'll just run away again!
[02:07] Kaoru
    I made up my mind on that day
[02:09] Kaoru
    that I'd live how I pleased in this world!
[02:12] Kaoru
    That I'd exercise restraint,
    but not hold back.

    That I'd reflect on my actions,
    but not regret anything.

[03:34] Kaoru
    So there'll be no giving up, right?
[03:39] Kids
    Wow, awesome!
[03:42] Kaoru
    All of you, tell the people of the city
[03:45] Kaoru
    that the owner of Reyette's Atelier will be
    distributing a drug to fight the epidemic.
[03:49] Kaoru
    Have them assemble before
    the statue of the goddess
[03:51] Kaoru
    in the central plaza before
    the second morning bell rings.
[03:54] Kaoru
    Everyone will be able to receive
    the drug free of charge.
[03:57] Kaoru
    Got all that?
[03:59] Kids
    Yes!
[04:00] Kaoru
    Split up and tell as many people as possible.
[04:03] Kaoru
    Oh, and tell them to bring an
    extra container to be filled
[04:06] Kaoru
    for anyone they know who's
    too sick to come in person.
[04:08] Kids
    Got it!
[04:13] Kaoru
    Roland, inform the nobles associated
    with the royal family of this plan.
[04:17] Roland
    All right.
[04:18] Kaoru
    And as for the nobleman who messed
    with our shop the other day...
[04:22] Roland
    You mean Count Olam?
[04:24] Kaoru
    Let him know, too.
[04:25] Roland
    Huh?
[04:26] Kaoru
    Now is not the time to be picky.
[04:29] Kaoru
    Besides, if he thinks he can profit from it,
[04:33] Kaoru
    he'll jump right on board.
[04:35] Roland
    I get it.
[04:36] Roland
    If the count's household acts, it'll make
     it easier for other nobles to act.
[04:40] Roland
    That's your plan, right?
[04:41] Kaoru
    Yeah. I want to get this information
    out to everyone at once.
[04:45] Kaoru
    And Fran...
[04:49] Kaoru
    Take these to Lieutenant Colonel Vonsas
    and Company Commander Larsrick.
[04:53] Kaoru
    Have the soldiers working
    as guards drink them.
[04:56] Francette
    Understood.
[05:01] Kaoru
    Emil and Belle, go see the realtor
    and cancel our contract with him.
[05:05] Kaoru
    When you finish, go help
    Gum and the other kids.
[05:08] Emil/Belle
    Got it!
[05:09] Reyette
    Big Sis Kaoru, what about me?
[05:12] Kaoru
    Reyette, you're going to be my cheerleader.
[05:14] Reyette
    Go, go!
[05:19] Kaoru
    The operation to eradicate the epidemic...
[05:21] Kaoru
    begins now!
[05:30] CC
    Don't push! Form a line!
[05:32] 2nd Son
    Those who are ill, come this way.
[05:38] Francette
    Form a tight line over here,
     please. No pushing.
[05:38] Lt. Col.
    Don't worry. There's enough for everyone.
[05:43] Kaoru
    Ah, ah. Mic check, mic check.
[05:48] CrowdA
    What's that thing?
[05:49] Kaoru
    Thank you all for coming.
[05:51] Kaoru
    I'm Kaoru, the owner of Reyette's Atelier.
[05:54] Kaoru
    I'm about to give you all potions
    that will cure the epidemic.
[05:59] Kaoru
    Once you drink it,
    you won't catch the disease,
[06:02] Kaoru
    and if you're already sick,
    it'll cure you instantly.
[06:05] Kaoru
    There's plenty for everyone
    in the royal capital.
[06:09] Kaoru
    So please don't rush, and follow
    the soldiers' instructions.
[06:14] Kaoru
    Otherwise...
[06:19] Kaoru
    You'll face the goddess's punishment.
[06:23] Kaoru
    My friend Celestine, protect us
     from this evil disease!
[06:28] Kaoru
    Come forth, miracle potion jar!
[06:42] Kaoru
    The potion will never run dry.
    I'll keep pouring out infinitely.
[06:46] Kaoru
    The goddess's mercy is boundless!
[06:48] Kaoru
    Give priority to the weak,
    and accept it with righteous hearts.
[07:00] Old
    Oh... I feel better!
[07:02] Grandson
    Grandpa!
[07:04] Old
    I'm so grateful! This drug is a miracle!
[07:10] Kaoru
    This potion both prevents and cures the
    epidemic currently plaguing the capital,
[07:17] Kaoru
    and it loses its effect 24
    hours after being collected.
[07:22] Kaoru
    Those are the effects of this potion
[07:24] Kaoru
    being infinitely created and circulated
    within this goddess statue-shaped container.
[07:29] Kaoru
    Foul play? That's just fine.
    I make the rules here!
[07:35] Kaoru
    Yeah, it is kinda similar
    to that other thing, but...
[07:40] Kaoru
    Well, putting that aside...
[07:42] CC
    The sick, children, and elderly come first.
[07:46] CC
    If you need to take some home,
    have your container ready.
[07:48] CC
    And don't even think about taking
    extra and trying to sell it.
[07:55] Kaoru
    Company Commander Larsrick.
[07:57] CC
    Ah!
[07:58] CC
    You've done it again. This is the
    result of that one shot you fired.
[08:02] CC
    Some are even helping us voluntarily.
[08:05] Kaoru
    And I'll give these to you.
[08:08] CC
    What's this?
[08:09] Kaoru
    Give them to the king and his family.
[08:11] Kaoru
    We can't have the king himself
    lining up here, can we?
[08:16] CC
    Ah, good point.
[08:18] CC
    I was so preoccupied with saving the people,
[08:20] CC
    that I completely forgot.
[08:22] CC
    So take those to them and
    earn a bunch of points.
[08:26] Kaoru
    You need to restore the
    Larsrick family name, right?
[08:30] Kaoru
    Well, go on! Leave things here to us!
[08:33] Kaoru
    Get moving, domain lord!
[08:35] CC
    You have my gratitude, Kaoru.
[08:42] Marquis
    Out of the way, commoners!
[08:44] Marquis
    The miracle potion belongs to
    the family of Marquis Sethdol!
[08:51] Kaoru
    Fool!
[08:52] Kaoru
    You must not value your life if
    you would defy the goddess's will!
[08:58] Kaoru
    Now, as you wish, I will grant you death.
[09:01] Kaoru
    Then you won't have to worry about
    falling victim to the epidemic.
[09:05] Marquis
    Please, spare me!
[09:08] Kaoru
    Then behold the power of the goddess!
[09:25] Kaoru
    The goddess doesn't differentiate
    between nobles and commoners.
[09:29] Kaoru
    If you want the drug, get in line.
[09:30] Kaoru
    Dirty tricks like cutting in
    line will not be tolerated.
[09:33] Marquis
    Y-Yes, ma'am.
[09:35] Kaoru
    Soldiers, line up in front
    of the statue on the left.
[09:38] Kaoru
    Once you've had your share, listen to
     your commander and help the people!
[09:44] Lt. Col.
    You truly are an angel. Splendid work.
[09:47] Kaoru
    I would have preferred to stay a
    normal girl for a bit longer, though.
[09:50] Lt. Col.
    Too late for that, I'm afraid.
[09:53] Lt. Col.
    So what are you going to do after this?
[09:55] Kaoru
    I'll go east.
[09:57] Lt. Col.
    East?
[09:58] Kaoru
    To the village believed to be
    the source of the outbreak.
[10:01] Kaoru
    I'll cut it off at the root.
[10:04] Lt. Col.
    But our army has already locked
    down the village of Goa.
[10:08] Kaoru
    You mean you're going to leave it
    until all the villagers are dead?
[10:14] Kaoru
    I won't let you do that.
[10:16] Kaoru
    I'm a pharmacist.
[10:18] Kaoru
    If there are people suffering from illness,
[10:19] Kaoru
    it's my job to get medicine to them.
[10:24] Lt. Col.
    Then I will lead the way.
[10:27] Lt. Col.
    It's the army's job to protect the populace.
[10:30] Lt. Col.
    I'm only doing my job. Besides...
[10:33] Lt. Col.
    Serving as the angel's guide now
    might prove beneficial to me someday.
[10:40] Kaoru
    Second Battalion Commander
    of the Royal Capital Army,
[10:43] Kaoru
    as a man I can trust,
    I order you to guide me!
[10:47] Lt. Col.
    Yes, ma'am! Your words honor me!
[10:50] Lt. Col.
    I, Lieutenant Colonel Nevas von Vonsas,
     will guard you with my life!
[11:03] Kaoru
    Come on, stop being mad already, Ed.
[11:07] Ed
    Sheesh! You just dumped me in the
    stables as soon as we got to town!
[11:11] Ed
    You never even came to see me!
[11:13] Kaoru
    I'm sorry. I was really busy.
[11:16] Ed
    And as soon as you need help, here you are!
[11:18] Ed
    Some master you are!
[11:20] Kaoru
    I said I was sorry.
[11:22] Lt. Col.
    I know she can decipher coded languages,
[11:24] Lt. Col.
    but she can speak to horses, too?
[11:37] Kaoru
    Hello, people of this village.
    I'm a pharmacist from the capital.
[11:41] Kaoru
    I've brought a drug that cures the epidemic.
[11:44] Kaoru
    With just a sip, you'll be instantly healed,
[11:47] Kaoru
    and you'll never catch it again.
[11:51] Lt. Col.
    We've already taken it, and as you
    can see, it had no ill effects.
[11:54] Lt. Col.
    In fact, it has saved the lives
    of many in the royal capital.
[11:59] VillagerA
    Y-You think it's true?
[12:05] Kaoru
    Go on. Drink.
[12:15] VillagerA
    It's delicious.
[12:17] VillagerA
    I can breathe again... and the pain is gone!
[12:21] Villagers
    Give me some!
[12:22] Villagers
    Me, too!
[12:23] Villagers
    I have a baby!
[12:24] Kaoru
    There's plenty to go around.
[12:26] Kaoru
    Please don't panic.
[12:40] Lt. Col.
    I'm shocked. This village looked
    to be on the verge of death.
[12:44] Lt. Col.
    Now it looks like a festival.
[12:46] Lt. Col.
    Was this also due to your powers, angel?
[12:49] Kaoru
    You can call me Kaoru.
[12:50] Kaoru
    Being called an angel just feeds my ego.
[12:53] Lt. Col.
    You're you, all right.
[12:55] Lt. Col.
    So what are you going to do now?
[12:58] Kaoru
    Find the source of the
    epidemic and get rid of it.
[13:00] Lt. Col.
    You think you can?
[13:01] Kaoru
    I can't say it's 100% guaranteed,
[13:03] Kaoru
    but I do have an idea.
[13:06] Kaoru
    And I have no intention of losing.
[13:12] Chief
    This is the house where those
    who died from the disease lived.
[13:15] Kaoru
    Chief, do you know who showed symptoms first?
[13:19] Chief
    Let me think...
[13:20] Chief
    The first to fall ill were Mark and Kiara,
    Joey and Martha, and Joshua.
[13:27] Roland
    All of the first patients lived in
    the houses nearest the mountains.
[13:31] Kaoru
    Did they have anything in common?
[13:33] Kaoru
    The things they ate,
    their daily routines, anything at all?
[13:36] Chief
    Hmm...
[13:39] Chief
    Of course! The valley!
[13:41] Chief
    Mark and Joey are hunters,
[13:43] Chief
    Kiara and Martha are dyers,
[13:46] Chief
    and Joshua is a fisherman.
[13:47] Chief
    They all went out to this nearby
    valley nearly every day.
[13:52] Kaoru
    That's it!
[13:58] Ed
    Just gonna leave me behind again, huh?
[14:05] Hunter
    The valley is just ahead.
[14:09] Lt. Col.
    Say, I've been wondering all
    this time... What are those?
[14:13] Kaoru
    I guess you could call these
    glasses that help me find things.
[14:18] Kaoru
    Let me correct that.
[14:19] Kaoru
    It's a glasses-shaped container for a potion
    that can detect things I'm searching for.
[14:24] Kaoru
    It's the super-evolved form of my Hot
    Spring Sensor and metal detector.
[14:28] Kaoru
    I've dubbed it the Searcher.
[14:30] Kaoru
    And the target of the search is the
    pathogen that started this epidemic.
[14:34] Kaoru
    Wait, I've got it already!
[14:36] Francette
    Kaoru?
[14:37] Kaoru
    They're moving too quickly to be bacteria,
[14:40] Kaoru
    and their directions and speeds
    are too varied to be airborne.
[14:46] Kaoru
    Of course! That's an infected animal!
[14:50] Kaoru
    This disease uses animals
    to spread itself around!
[14:53] Kaoru
    Let's hurry to the valley!
[14:55] Kaoru
    Hang on.
[14:57] Kaoru
    Broaden range.
[15:00] Kaoru
    I think I've got the location
    where it originated!
[15:03] Lt. Col.
    What?!
[15:04] Kaoru
    Be careful, everyone. We don't
     know what we'll find.
[15:07] Kaoru
    Roland, look out for Reyette.
[15:09] Roland
    Got it.
[15:11] Kaoru
    Everyone else, be alert to
    all directions! Let's go!
[15:21] Kaoru
    What's that?
[15:28] Kaoru
    What the heck is this?!
[15:32] Kaoru
    That's it!
[15:34] Francette
    Kaoru, wh-what is that obviously
    warped-looking thing?!
[15:39] Kaoru
    Huh? Warped?
[15:41] Kaoru
    Of course! If this is one of those things...
[15:45] Kaoru
    You're up, urgent summoning device!
[15:59] Celestine
    Where is the distortion?!
[16:01] Celestine
    Wait... Kaoru?
[16:03] Celestine
    Oh, so there's no distortion?
    What did you need?
[16:06] Kaoru
    That.
[16:07] Celestine
    Huh?
[16:08] Kaoru
    I thought that might be one of the
    distortions you're looking for.
[16:12] Celestine
    Wh-What?! It totally is!
[16:16] Celestine
    A distortion! It's a distortion!
[16:19] Celestine
    Oh, good. It's still small.
[16:22] Celestine
    Okay, this is my chance!
[16:24] Celestine
    I'm dispelling this distortion!
[16:26] Celestine
    Get back! Get farther away from it, everyone!
[16:29] Reyette
    Goddess?
[16:33] Kaoru
    Everyone, run!
[16:35] Kaoru
    If that hits you, it'll tear you in half!
[16:49] Celestine
    Destroy it!
[16:53] Francette
    It's coming!
[16:54] Kaoru
    Too soon!
[16:56] Emil/Belle
    Kaoru!
[17:06] Belle
    I thought we were done for.
[17:08] Kaoru
    I-I thought I'd be crushed to death.
[17:11] Kaoru
    Wh-Where's Reyette?
[17:13] Roland
    Right here, and safe.
[17:17] Kaoru
    Wait, where's Fran?
[17:20] Francette
    Goddess Celestine!
[17:22] Francette
    Why couldn't you wait until
    Kaoru was safely out of range?!
[17:27] Celestine
    I-I'm sorry.
[17:28] Francette
    Kaoru is in a human body right now!
[17:32] Francette
    What would you do if
    something happened to her?!
[17:35] Celestine
    G-Good point...
[17:36] Kaoru
    Oh, jeez! She's lecturing Celes!
[17:36] Francette
    You're her friend! Show a
    bit more concern for her!
[17:40] Kaoru
    Wait, they're on the same wavelength?
[17:41] Celestine
    Right...
[17:43] Francette
    You know, anyone who calls herself
    a goddess could learn from Kao—
[17:46] Kaoru
    I think that's enough, Fran.
[17:49] Kaoru
    Anyway, Celes, about that distortion...
[17:53] Celestine
    What? The harmful effects of
    the distortion have spread?
[17:57] Kaoru
    A disease originating from
    it has been spreading around.
[18:00] Kaoru
    We stopped it in the capital
    and the village near here,
[18:03] Kaoru
    but I'm sure it's reached other areas, too.
[18:07] Kaoru
    It was caused by a pathogen that came
    from another world through a distortion
[18:10] Kaoru
    and an invasion of animals
    that were carrying it.
[18:13] Kaoru
    So naturally, the cleanup and
    restoration would be your job, right?
[18:18] Celestine
    Oh, uh... Yes, maybe, but...
[18:21] Kaoru
    Hmm... I wonder what that Earth guy would do.
[18:25] Kaoru
    I bet he'd do a flawless job
    without cutting any corners.
[18:30] Celestine
    O-Of course!
[18:32] Celestine
    Protecting humans from the
    damage caused by distortions?
[18:35] Celestine
    Of course that's my job!
[18:37] Kaoru
    She's so easy.
[18:39] Kaoru
    Okay, then, I'm counting on you to clean up.
[18:41] Kaoru
    I feel bad for the animals that
    caught the original pathogen,
[18:44] Kaoru
    but you'll have to get rid of all of them.
[18:46] Celestine
    Aw, but I'm not very good at detail work.
[18:50] Kaoru
    If you go to great pains to protect humans,
[18:51] Kaoru
    you might get a reward.
[18:53] Kaoru
    He might even pat your
    head and say, "Good job."
[18:58] Celestine
    I can't waste any more time!
[19:00] Celestine
    I really need to get to work!
[19:02] Celestine
    Well, see you later, Kaoru!
[19:06] Reyette
    Goddess...
[19:09] Kaoru
    And that concludes this operation.
[19:12] Chief
    Thank you so much, Miss Kaoru.
[19:16] Kaoru
    Well, we'll be on our way now.
    Thank you for everything.
[19:21] Lt. Col.
    Wait, wait, wait!
[19:22] Lt. Col.
    What about those things
    you left in the capital?
[19:24] Kaoru
    Oh, those?
[19:26] Palace Police
    These should be managed by the palace!
[19:29] Temple Priest
    What are you talking about?!
[19:31] Temple Priest
    Miracles of the goddess fall
    under the temple's jurisdiction!
[19:36] Both
    These belong to us!
[19:40] Kaoru
    I rigged them to self-destruct after five
    days or if anyone tried to move them.
[19:46] Lt. Col.
    You really thought this through, huh?
[19:48] Kaoru
    This isn't my first time being on the run.
[19:51] Kaoru
    I'll be able to live as an ordinary
    girl again somewhere else.
[19:55] Lt. Col.
    An ordinary girl? Where's an ordinary girl?
[20:01] Kaoru
    The point is, I'm sick of
    being treated like an angel!
[20:05] Kaoru
    Which is why...
[20:06] Lt. Col.
    Wait a minute!
[20:07] Lt. Col.
    What about soldier syndrome? There are
    still those who haven't recovered!
[20:11] Kaoru
    You might as well give up... on...
[20:14] Lt. Col.
    What is it?
[20:16] Kaoru
    A potion that prevents and cures the disease
    ravaging the capital with just one sip...
[20:25] Kaoru
    Lieutenant Colonel, I don't think you need
    to worry about soldier syndrome anymore.
[20:29] Lt. Col.
    Huh?
[20:31] Kaoru
    I don't think the soldiers in the
    capital will ever get it again.
[20:35] Kaoru
    And those who had it
    should be all better now.
[20:38] Lt. Col.
    R-Really?!
[20:39] Kaoru
    Yes. And if I'm right, you can
     take the credit for it.
[20:44] Kaoru
    But in return...
[20:46] Lt. Col.
    Yes.
[20:47] Lt. Col.
    The angel and her companions
    left to go somewhere else,
[20:51] Lt. Col.
    and no one knows where.
[20:53] Lt. Col.
    I'll tell them that.
[20:56] Kaoru
    Well, then, let's go!
[20:58] Reyette
    We're off!
[21:00] Kaoru
    Hi-yo, Silver!
[21:01] Ed
    Again, whose horse is that?!
[21:13] Francette
    This road will soon intersect with
    the road that runs north and south.
[21:17] Francette
    Which way will we go?
[21:18] Kaoru
    Who knows? We'll just go where life takes us.
[21:22] Belle
    It might be nice to visit
    the hot spring again, too.
[21:24] Roland/Emil
    No way!
[21:25] Kaoru
    Well, then...
[21:26] Kaoru
    How about the ocean?
[21:28] Kaoru
    We can follow up the hot springs with a
    gourmet trip for all the seafood we can eat.
[21:32] Reyette
    I'm in!
[21:33] Francette
    That sounds nice!
[21:34] Belle
    Wow! A hot spring with a view of the ocean?
[21:37] Roland/Emil
    No way!
[21:38] Kaoru
    Dear Nagase family,
    Kyoko-sama, and Reiko-sama.
[21:43] Kaoru
    I'm doing pretty well here in Verny.
[21:48] Kaoru
    I haven't found my peaceful
    life or a husband yet,
[21:52] Kaoru
    but I've made precious friends.
[21:55] Kaoru
    Come what may, I'm determined to
    enjoy an easy life with my OP ability
[21:59] Kaoru
    until the day I die.
[22:01] Kaoru
    And until I achieve that goal...
[22:04] Kaoru
    I, Nagase Kaoru, shall survive using potions!
[23:23] Kaoru
    For watching until the end...
[23:25] All
    We thank you very much.
[23:26] Reyette
    Fank you very mush!
[23:28] Kaoru
    Our journey isn't over yet, but for now...
[23:32] All
    Goodbye, and take care!
[23:34] Reyette
    Goodbye!
