[00:09] Leen
    We'll be heading south of Mismede,
[00:11] Leen
    past the Sea of Trees to the
    Burning Kingdom of Sandora,
[00:15] Leen
    and then to the Rabbi Desert
    southeast of there!
[00:18] Leen
    I heard that long ago,
    there were six stone pillars
[00:20] Leen
    embedded with spellstones lying
    within ancient ruins in that desert!
[00:25] Leen
    Though apparently those ruins have
    now been swallowed up by the desert.
[00:30] Touya
    Good for you.
[00:30] Leen
    What's with that completely
    disinterested reaction?
[00:34] Leen
    You're not thinking you can
    just go poke your head in,
[00:36] Leen
    take a look, and come right back home, are you?
[00:39] Touya
    How did you know?
[00:40] Leen
    Naughty underwear.
[00:42] Touya
    I get it, okay?!
[00:44] Elze
    Underwear?
[00:45] Yae
    What is she talking about?
[00:47] Touya
    It's nothing! Nothing at all!
[00:49] Leen
    I just hope it's the Library. Right?
[00:52] Touya
    I don't think we need to
    work that hard to find it...
[00:54] Touya
    But I am curious about the extermination
[00:57] Touya
    of an ancient civilization
    at the hands of the Phrase.
[01:01] Touya
    It's all well and good if
    I'm just overthinking it,
[01:03] Touya
    but there's a chance we may need the power
    of Babylon if the worst comes to pass,
[01:07] Touya
    and I refuse to regret not
    acting before it's too late.
[01:11] Kohaku
    Master, look at that!
[01:15] Touya
    A Phrase?!
[01:21] Leen
    What do we do?
[01:22] Touya
    We can't just leave them be.
SIGN    Chapter 2
SIGN    The Stranded and the Workshop
[03:19] Linze
    This way, while you can!
[03:22] Elze
    Hide behind here.
[03:23] Rebecca
    Wh-Who are you?
[03:25] Yae
    Touya-dono!
[03:26] Yae
    Send me above it with Gate!
[03:30] Touya
    Got it!
[03:35] Yae
    Prepare yourself!
[03:39] Yae
    It didn't work?
[03:41] Touya
    Yae?!
[03:42] Yae
    Touya-dono! Use Gate!
[03:47] Yae
    My apologies.
[03:50] Touya
    Everyone, spread out!
[03:57] Touya
    You've got to be kidding me!
[03:59] Touya
    We'd be goners if we took a blow from that.
[04:02] Ende
    I wondered who it was. It's you, Touya?
[04:05] Touya
    Ende?!
[04:08] Ende
    Hey, long time no see.
[04:10] Ende
    I sensed the Phrase and came out here,
[04:12] Ende
    but I didn't expect to run into you.
[04:15] Touya
    You know about the Phrase?
[04:17] Ende
    I do.
[04:20] Ende
    Though I'm surprised a Standard
    Phrase has made it this far.
[04:24] Ende
    I guess the World Barrier
    is already at its limit.
[04:26] Touya
    Huh?
[04:27] Ende
    Anyway, hang on a sec.
[04:29] Ende
    I'll take care of that first.
[04:34] Ende
    Hup.
[04:41] Touya
    What?!
[04:50] Touya
    What the heck did you do?
[04:52] Ende
    Nothing.
[04:54] Ende
    I just destroyed it by hitting it with
    magic attuned to its natural frequency.
[04:58] Touya
    Ende...
[05:00] Touya
    You just mentioned a "World Barrier," right?
[05:02] Touya
    What is that?
[05:04] Ende
    It's basically a net that keeps
    foreign things out of this world.
[05:08] Ende
    Though it looks like it's starting to fray.
[05:11] Ende
    This thing probably slipped through it, too.
[05:14] Ende
    Though it's just a minion that
    only acts to achieve its goal.
[05:18] Touya
    Goal?
[05:19] Ende
    To find the Phrase's sleeping king.
[05:22] Ende
    It's the same goal I have.
[05:26] Ende
    I need to get going now.
[05:27] Ende
    Farewell, Touya. I hope we meet again.
[05:30] Touya
    Hey!
[05:32] Touya
    The Phrase's king?
[05:41] Rebecca
    That hits the spot.
[05:43] Rebecca
    Touya, you have my gratitude.
[05:46] Rebecca
    You saved us.
[05:47] Rebecca
    I'm Rebecca, an adventurer.
[05:50] Touya
    An adventurer?
[05:51] Touya
    You all seem awfully lightly
    armed for adventurers.
[05:55] Rebecca
    Those girls aren't adventurers.
[05:57] Rebecca
    The things around their necks
    are Enslavement Collars.
[06:01] Touya
    Enslavement Collars?
[06:03] Rebbecca
    Once it's on you, that's it.
[06:05] Rebbecca
    It's a magic item that makes
    you unable to defy orders,
[06:06] Rebbecca
    even when you're treated as property.
[06:08] Rebbecca
    Attempting to remove it
    will inflict intense pain
[06:11] Rebbecca
    that can lead to death at its worst.
[06:13] Touya
    That's awful.
[06:14] Rebecca
    Yeah, it's truly cruel.
[06:18] Rebecca
    Only the person who placed
    it on them can remove it,
[06:21] Rebecca
    but that person is already dead.
[06:23] Rebecca
    Once we heard about their situation,
[06:25] Rebecca
    we decided to help them flee the country.
[06:28] Logan
    We thought we might be able to find a way
    to remove the collars somewhere else.
[06:33] Logan
    Anyway, pathetic as it is,
    we got lost and stranded,
[06:36] Logan
    and then that monster attacked us, too.
[06:39] Leen
    Hey, Touya.
[06:41] Touya
    I think I might be able to
    remove those collars.
[06:44] Will
    What?!
[06:49] Touya
    Apport.
[06:52] Will
    Th-The collar is off!
[06:54] Touya
    Apport! Apport! Apport!
    Apport! Apport! Apport!
[07:00] Touya
    What are you going to do now?
[07:02] Rebecca
    Removing the collars still
    doesn't wipe their records.
[07:07] Rebecca
    Staying in Sandora would
    bring them nothing but trouble.
[07:10] Rebecca
    So we're still planning to take
    them to some other nation...
[07:14] Yumina
    In that case, would you like to go to Belfast?
[07:17] Rebecca
    Huh?
[07:17] Logan
    Who are you?
[07:18] Yumina
    Nice to meet you.
[07:20] Yumina
    I am Yumina Urnea Belfast,
    daughter of Tristwyn Urnes Belfast,
[07:25] Yumina
    King of the Kingdom of Belfast.
[07:27] Others
    Huh?!
[07:28] Yumina
    I heard everything about your situation.
[07:31] Yumina
    My country would be able to take you in.
[07:35] Yumina
    Would you like to come?
[07:38] Rebecca
    U-Um, p-please, if we can!
[07:44] Yumina
    Then let's send everyone to Belfast.
[07:47] Yumina
    Touya, if you would?
[07:52] Touya
    There.
[07:59] Touya
    Rebecca-san and the others can
    live in my house for a while,
[08:03] Touya
    and figure out what their
    future looks like later.
[08:06] Touya
    Now, shall we continue on to the ruins?
[08:09] Leen
    Before we do that...
[08:11] Leen
    Who was that boy earlier?
[08:13] Leen
    What's your relationship?
[08:15] Touya
    O-Oh, right.
[08:18] Touya
    Uh, his name is Ende,
[08:22] Touya
    and I met him when I went to
    buy everyone's engagement rings.
[08:26] Touya
    He was trying to buy some things
[08:28] Touya
    with a strange coin he claimed
    he used to be able to use,
[08:31] Touya
    but the shopkeeper rejected
    the coin, so I paid for him.
[08:36] Touya
    He said he wanted to work since
    he'd be in trouble without money,
[08:39] Touya
    so I led him to the guild.
[08:41] (Flashback) Ende
    I managed to register, thanks to your help.
[08:43] (Flashback) Ende
    Thank you, Touya.
[08:45] (Flashback) Ende
    I hope we meet again somewhere.
[08:49] Touya
    I never thought we'd meet again
    in the middle of the desert, though.
[08:56] Cesca
    The currency from here is still being used?
[08:59] Touya
    Cesca, you recognize this money?
[09:02] Cesca
    I'm shocked.
[09:04] Cesca
    That is a Partheno silver coin.
[09:06] Cesca
    It was first minted 5,284 years ago.
[09:10] Touya
    Huh?!
[09:11] Yumina
    It doesn't look like such a long
    time has passed for this coin.
[09:17] Leen
    So he possessed a 5,000-year-old coin,
[09:20] Leen
    and defeated a monster we
    couldn't scratch in a single blow.
[09:23] Leen
    He also knew about that monster in detail,
[09:26] Leen
    and wore a muffler even in this heat.
[09:29] Leen
    He's just bursting with suspiciousness.
[09:31] Touya
    I don't think that last one
    has much to do with anything,
[09:34] Touya
    but I guess the fact remains
    that he is suspicious.
[09:37] Touya
    Ende...
[09:38] Touya
    Just who is he, then?
[09:40] Elze
    Hey, that crystalline monster...
[09:43] Elze
    He called it a Phrase, right?
[09:45] Elze
    What exactly was that?
[09:48] Yumina
    You know something, don't you, Touya?
[09:52] Touya
    Actually, I received a message
    from the professor.
[09:56] Touya
    The same Professor Regina Babylon
    that created this Garden and Cesca.
[10:00] Touya
    Apparently, the professor was using
    a device to look into the future,
[10:04] Touya
    and observing our lives from the past.
[10:07] Touya
    But then,
[10:09] Touya
    one day, the Phrase suddenly appeared
    out of nowhere, and Partheno collapsed.
[10:15] Touya
    The professor said she was
    able to predict the events
[10:18] Touya
    leading to the world's
    destruction by the Phrase,
[10:22] Touya
    but for some reason,
    the world wasn't destroyed.
[10:25] Touya
    She had no idea why, but at a certain point,
    the Phrase just disappeared from this world.
[10:31] Leen
    What?
[10:33] Leen
    Why did you keep something
    that important from us?
[10:36] Touya
    Well, I was planning to tell all
    of you about it eventually...
[10:40] Leen
    An invasion of thousands of Phrases...
[10:42] Leen
    So that's what wiped out
    the ancient civilization.
[10:46] Leen
    Though, despite there being so
    many of them 5,000 years ago,
[10:50] Leen
    there's hardly any eyewitness
    information about them in this era.
[10:53] Leen
    Yet now they have begun appearing again.
[10:55] Leen
    What exactly is going on?
[10:58] Touya
    Ende did say that
[11:00] Touya
    the barrier that keeps foreign things
    from entering this world was fraying,
[11:04] Touya
    and that the Phrase from earlier
    had probably slipped through there.
[11:10] Touya
    Cesca.
[11:11] Touya
    Did mankind not fight
    the Phrase 5,000 years ago?
[11:15] Cesca
    No, the battles were rather dire,
    but they did fight back.
[11:19] Cesca
    The professor even developed decisive
    weapons for use against the Phrase,
[11:24] Cesca
    but by the time they were complete,
    there wasn't a single Phrase left.
[11:29] Touya
    Decisive weapons?
[11:30] Cesca
    The professor created Frame Gears,
    pilotable humanoid combat weapons.
[11:35] Touya
    Pilotable humanoid combat weapons?!
[11:38] Touya
    The professor created things like that, too?!
[11:42] Elze
    What happened to them after that?
[11:44] Cesca
    If I recall correctly, they were
    stored in the Hangar of Babylon.
[11:47] Touya
    Which means that if the ruins we're
    heading toward teleport us to the Hangar,
[11:51] Touya
    we'll be able to obtain them?!
[11:54] Cesca
    Yes.
[11:55] Touya
    Huh? Oh, man!
[11:57] Touya
    I'm getting a little... no, really excited!
[12:00] Cesca
    Master, we've arrived at our destination.
[12:06] Touya
    There's nothing here...
[12:17] Leen
    Whirl forth, Wind! A Tempestuous
    Whirlwind, Cyclone Storm!
[12:31] Touya
    It was buried in a place like this?
[12:34] Touya
    How do we get this open?
[12:38] Yumina
    Touya!
[12:39] Touya
    Whoa!
[12:45] Touya
    Gate.
[12:46] Touya
    Huh? My magic isn't activating?
[12:50] Touya
    Am I trapped in here?
[12:52] Kohaku
    Are you okay, Master?!
[12:54] Touya
    Kohaku?
[12:55] Touya
    Yeah, I'm fine. It was harmless.
[12:58] Touya
    There's a teleportation circle inside.
[13:00] Touya
    I'm going to try going in, so tell
    everyone not to worry about me.
[13:04] Kohaku
    All right. Be careful.
[13:09] Touya
    I guess I can't get out unless
    I use the teleportation circle.
[13:24] Touya
    Okay.
[13:25] Touya
    I hope it's the Hangar.
[13:38] Rosetta
    Stop right there!
[13:45] Rosetta
    Welcome to the Workshop of Babylon.
[13:48] Rosetta
    I am the administration terminal
    for this place, High Rosetta.
[13:52] Rosetta
    I would be grateful if
    you would call me Rosetta.
[13:55] Touya
    The Workshop, huh?
[13:58] Rosetta
    The hub of the Workshop is up ahead.
[14:01] Rosetta
    Currently, entry is forbidden
    to all but the compatible one.
[14:05] Touya
    Well, I have been deemed
    compatible by Cesca.
[14:10] Rosetta
    Cesca?
[14:11] Rosetta
    You mean Francesca?
[14:14] Rosetta
    I see. So you have already
    obtained the Garden.
[14:18] Rosetta
    That will make this much quicker.
[14:20] Rosetta
    I will now test you to determine if you
    are qualified to be the compatible one!
[14:25] Touya
    Test me? What are you going to do?
[14:28] Rosetta
    Guess the color of my panties
    without moving a step from there!
[14:33] Touya
    You moron!
[14:34] Touya
    Seriously, what was that professor thinking?!
[14:37] Rosetta
    Hey, what did I tell you?
    You can't move from there.
[14:40] Touya
    What, then? Are you telling
    me to flip up your skirt?
[14:43] Touya
    You moron!
[14:44] Rosetta
    If you can pull it off without moving
    from there, that would also be fine!
[14:48] Rosetta
    However, you can only answer once!
[14:51] Rosetta
    Your time limit is five minutes!
[14:53] Touya
    Why are you so into this?!
[14:55] Rosetta
    Go on, what color are they?
[14:58] Touya
    I hate playing into your hands
    like this, but I'll do it!
[15:02] Touya
    Blow forth, Wind! Rising
    Whirlwind, Cool Wind!
[15:14] Touya
    Wh-What?!
[15:16] Rosetta
    This skirt turns away Wind magic.
[15:20] Touya
    In that case...
[15:21] Touya
    Burn forth, Fire! Breath
    of Flame, Fire Breath!
[15:30] Touya
    What?!
[15:31] Rosetta
    It also turns away Fire magic,
    just as it does Wind.
[15:34] Touya
    What's with that ultimate skirt?!
[15:37] Touya
    It's uselessly high-spec!
[15:39] Touya
    Don't go getting cocky, though.
[15:41] Touya
    If you make me get serious, I can
    peek at your panties whenever I want!
[15:45] Touya
    At this point, I'll just send my vision
    under her skirt and peek at them directly!
[15:50] Touya
    Long Sense!
[15:57] Rosetta
    Now, what color are they?
[16:00] Touya
    Colorless... Transparent...
[16:03] Rosetta
    That's correct!
[16:05] Rosetta
    I now recognize you as compatible,
[16:07] Rosetta
    and as of this moment, Unit #27,
    code name "High Rosetta,"
[16:12] Rosetta
    will be transferred to your command!
[16:14] Rosetta
    Master, are you all right?
[16:17] Touya
    Y-Yeah...
[16:19] Rosetta
    Is that so? Moving on, then.
[16:24] Touya
    Huh?
[16:29] Rosetta
    Registration complete.
[16:30] Rosetta
    Genetic information recorded.
[16:32] Rosetta
    Ownership of the Workshop
    is now transferred to Master.
[16:37] Touya
    Oh, for crying out loud... I'll get her for this.
[16:43] Rosetta
    Are you truly all right now?
[16:46] Touya
    Yeah.
[16:47] Rosetta
    Then I shall show you the Workshop.
[16:56] Touya
    Is this whole building just
    an assembly of tiny cubes?
[17:06] Touya
    What is this?
[17:08] Rosetta
    This is the Workshop.
[17:15] Rosetta
    It is an all-purpose factory that can create
    any manufacturing apparatus you imagine,
[17:19] Rosetta
    and any work spaces needed
    to support production.
[17:23] Youya
    I see.
[17:25] Youya
    So it can manipulate the minuscule
    blocks that compose this very building
[17:29] Youya
    into any manner of tool or device?
[17:32] Rosetta
    The only ones able to manipulate the
    Workshop are myself and you, Master.
[17:37] Rosetta
    Also, if you have a product
    to serve as the original,
[17:40] Rosetta
    it's possible to reproduce it here.
[17:42] Rosetta
    Provided that you have all the
    component materials, of course.
[17:48] Touya
    I wouldn't have much need of this place
    since I can make things with Modeling,
[17:53] Touya
    but it's a different story if it
    can mass-produce what I make.
[17:58] Touya
    Can you reproduce this?
[18:00] Touya
    For the materials...
[18:03] Touya
    Use mythril.
[18:04] Rosetta
    Of course.
[18:07] Rosetta
    Scan.
[18:11] Rosetta
    Copy.
[18:18] Touya
    It's fast!
[18:20] Rosetta
    You can also do this...
[18:26] Rosetta
    to freely alter the design.
[18:38] Touya
    Blade Mode.
[18:40] Touya
    I guess it can't copy Program along with it.
[18:43] Touya
    Well, that just means I need
    to reinstate Program on it.
[18:46] Rosetta
    If you will a certain number to be copied,
[18:48] Rosetta
    it will continue production automatically.
[18:51] Touya
    I see. That's convenient.
[18:53] Touya
    This can earn money.
[18:55] Touya
    Though this makes it more
    of a factory than a workshop.
[18:59] Touya
    Oh, yeah! Rosetta,
[19:01] Touya
    there was something created to fight
    the Phrase, right? Cesca mentioned it.
[19:06] Rosetta
    You mean the Frame Gears, yes?
[19:09] Rosetta
    Those certainly were created here.
[19:12] Rosetta
    I helped the professor build them.
[19:15] Touya
    I knew it.
[19:17] Touya
    So they were developed in the Workshop,
[19:18] Touya
    and the completed ones were
    later stored in the Hangar?
[19:22] Touya
    She could have just left them here...
[19:25] Touya
    Rosetta, can you create those Frame Gears?
[19:28] Rosetta
    That's impossible for me.
[19:30] Touya
    Huh?
[19:31] Rosetta
    At present, the most I can
    create is their equipment.
[19:35] Rosetta
    I don't have their blueprints.
[19:37] Rosetta
    Though the blueprints
    might be in the Storehouse.
[19:40] Touya
    I see.
[19:41] Touya
    Then we either need to find the Hangar,
[19:43] Touya
    or find the Storehouse and
    have Rosetta build them.
[19:46] Touya
    Either way, there's nothing
    we can do at present.
[19:49] Touya
    I guess I'll get everyone here for now.
[19:51] Touya
    Cesca probably wants to see you, too.
[19:54] Rosetta
    Great! I'm looking forward to it!
[19:59] All
    And there!
[20:01] Leen
    The Workshop, huh?
[20:03] Rosetta
    That makes me kind of irritated.
[20:06] Rosetta
    This is far more useful than the Garden,
    which serves no purpose on its own.
[20:10] Cesca
    Excuse me.
[20:11] Cesca
    My Garden has been Master's mental support
[20:13] Cesca
    by being a healing garden that provides
    peace of mind and a space to refresh.
[20:18] Cesca
    Your misconception is severe.
[20:20] Touya
    Setting that aside!
[20:22] Touya
    Is it possible to rejoin the
     Garden and the Workshop?
[20:25] Cesca
    Yes. Now that ownership has
    been transferred to Master,
[20:28] Cesca
    I believe that would be for the best.
[20:30] Rosetta
    I've lowered the strength of the barrier,
    so it will be possible to link with the Garden.
[20:35] Rosetta
    We can control the Garden from here, as well.
[20:38] Cesca
    What shall we do, Master?
[20:41] Touya
    Have the Garden return to Belfast.
[20:43] Touya
    Then have the Workshop
    head to Belfast, as well.
[20:46] Touya
    We'll do the docking there.
[20:48] Both
    Docking...
[20:50] Touya
    Huh?
[20:51] Both
    Sounds naughty.
[20:53] Touya
    Just go do it already!
[20:56] Rebecca
    My sincere apologies!
[20:58] Rebecca
    I was unaware you were engaged to the
    princess! Please have mercy upon me!
[21:03] Touya
    Hey, stop, stop! You're taking it too far!
[21:06] Rebecca
    No, no, no!
[21:08] Rebecca
    Cecile has told me what
    a wonderful man you are.
[21:13] Touya
    Cecile-san, you said something
    you shouldn't have, didn't you?
[21:16] Touya
    At any rate, please don't
    worry about it so much.
[21:19] Touya
    Also, I'm not exactly a noble,
[21:23] Touya
    so you don't have to force yourself
    to speak so politely, okay?
[21:26] Rebecca
    Really?
[21:27] Rebecca
    Then I'll take you up on that.
[21:29] Logan
    Hey, now, are you sure?
[21:31] Rebbecca
    He said so himself. It should be fine.
[21:34] Touya
    So what will you all do from now on?
[21:37] Touya
    I imagine the three of you can earn
    a living working for the guild, but...
[21:41] Rebecca
    You mean the girls, right?
[21:45] Rebecca
    They don't have any special skills,
[21:49] Rebecca
    and they can't exactly fight, either.
[21:53] Rebecca
    Would you be willing to let them stay here
[21:55] Rebecca
    until they find work in this city?
[21:57] Touya
    Sure, that part is fine.
[22:00] Touya
    But work, huh?
[22:02] Touya
    Could I have them mass-produce
    something at the Workshop?
[22:04] Touya
    No, I want to keep the Workshop a secret,
[22:07] Touya
    and it would be better to ask a
    professional if I'm trading something.
[22:11] Touya
    So they need some other kind of work...
[22:16] Touya
    What should I do, I wonder?
