***SIGN*** Why is Helvetica still alive?!
***SIGN*** This would be so easy if she were gone!
***SIGN*** What a pair of incompetent fools!
**[00:12] Byaku**
I warned you.
**[00:14] Byaku**
Our plan would've succeeded if not for them.
**[00:17] Byaku**
You're the incompetent one.
***SIGN*** What?
**[00:19] Charlotte**
It's not over yet.
**[00:21] Charlotte**
We just have to kill this
Helvetica girl, right?
***SIGN*** That's right. We haven't failed yet.
***SIGN*** Wait.
***SIGN*** I know a great way to upset Helvetica.
**[00:44] Charlotte**
Don't be absurd!
**[00:45] Charlotte**
I could never do something so cruel!
***SIGN*** Do it or we're done for.
***SIGN*** You should know all about the horrors of losing family.
**[00:55] Charlotte**
You can't be serious!
**[00:57] Mob 1**
Man, that S-rank party was something.
**[01:00] Mob 2**
Yeah. We barely suffered any damage.
**[01:03] Mob 2**
Was it a blessing from Vienna?
**[01:05] Mob 3**
Must've been.
**[01:07] Charlotte**
The cult of Vienna, Helvetica...
**[01:11] Charlotte**
They take happiness for granted,
while I've lost everything.
**[01:19] Charlotte**
What we need is chaos.
**[01:21] Charlotte**
We're going to take down Helvetica.

Episode 7 "A Long Night and a Bright Dawn"
**[03:07] Belgrieve**
Come in.
**[03:10] Ash**
Sorry to disturb you while you're resting.
**[03:13] Ash**
How is Ms. Angeline?
**[03:15] Belgrieve**
Mr. Ashcroft, thank you for asking.
**[03:18] Belgrieve**
She should be better after a night's sleep.
**[03:22] Ash**
Good.
**[03:23] Ash**
I don't know how to thank you
for saving Bordeaux.
**[03:30] Belgrieve**
You're giving us too much credit.
**[03:32] Ash**
Allow me to show my gratitude with this.
**[03:37] Belgrieve**
What is that?
**[03:38] Ash**
An elven remedy.
**[03:40] Ash**
It's far more effective than any
medicine produced by the empire.
**[03:44] Belgrieve**
I can't accept something so valuable.
**[03:46] Ash**
It's hardly enough for all you've done,
**[03:49] Ash**
but it's the least I can do for you. Please.
**[03:53] Belgrieve**
I see. In that case, I gratefully accept.
**[04:09] Belgrieve**
Just smelling it makes me feel better.
**[04:20] Belgrieve**
It'd be a waste
not to make use of such a gift.
**[04:30] Belgrieve**
What impressive effects.
**[04:34] Belgrieve**
Well, I need to be
in working shape tomorrow too.
**[04:42] Belgrieve**
Talk about a pick-me-up.
**[04:52] (Flashback) Helvetica**
I'd like to you capture Count Malta alive.
**[04:55] (Flashback) Sasha**
You can count on me.
**[04:57] (Flashback) Sasha**
If he resists, I'll take an arm or three.
**[05:02] Sasha**
I guess he doesn't have three arms to take.
**[05:09] Sasha**
Hold!
**[05:12] Sasha**
*This girl...*
**[05:14] Sasha**
My name is Sasha Bordeaux.
**[05:16] Sasha**
You're the one who defeated that shadow.
**[05:20] Sasha**
Where are you headed at this hour?
**[05:23] Charlotte**
I heard the mansion was attacked.
**[05:26] Charlotte**
I thought I'd visit Lady Helvetica.
**[05:29] Sasha**
I appreciate it, but we're not currently
able to receive any guests.
**[05:34] Charlotte**
Don't mind me.
I simply wish to pay my respects.
**[05:38] Sasha**
I'd ask that you try again in the morning.
**[05:43] Charlotte**
Byaku!
**[05:44] Byaku**
She's noticed. We should kill her.
**[05:48] Byaku**
Blame yourself for not quite
being sharp enough.
**[05:51] Sasha**
Scum!
**[05:58] Sasha**
Curse you!
**[06:03] Sasha**
*He's firing magic, but I can't see a thing.*
**[06:06] Sasha**
*If I'm not careful, I'll be done for.*
**[06:13] Byaku**
You don't have time to be surprised.
**[06:26] Byaku**
Goodbye.
**[06:35] Sasha**
Ash! Mr. Elmore!
**[06:37] Sasha**
How did you find me?
**[06:39] Elmore**
The soldiers were concerned
that only your horse returned.
**[06:44] Ash**
Bastards!
**[06:46] Byaku**
You weren't invited.
**[06:51] Ash**
What did you do? I didn't see anything!
**[06:58] Byaku**
Stay out of this, old man.
**[07:05] Byaku**
I won't let a single one of you escape.
**[07:07] Byaku**
You're all dead.
**[07:13] Byaku**
Stay away...
**[07:19] Sasha**
Run! You don't stand a chance against him!
**[07:33] Sasha**
Ms. Ange!
**[07:41] Angeline**
How dare you bully my friends.
**[07:43] Byaku**
You, huh?
**[07:48] Angeline**
I want to play, too.
**[07:49] Byaku**
This is nonsense.
**[08:02] Angeline**
I feel strangely good. I wonder why.
**[08:08] Angeline**
*A similar shadow called to me in my dream.*
**[08:13] Angeline**
* Next, a warm hand reached out to me.*
* I thought it was my dad.*
**[08:18] Angeline**
* I was enveloped in a*
* mysterious woodland smell.*
**[08:21] Angeline**
*And then...*
**[08:28] Angeline**
I'm thinking. Stop interrupting me.
**[08:31] Byaku**
Don't underestimate me.
**[08:36] Elmore**
A three-dimensional magic square!
**[08:37] Ash**
Is that what he was hiding?
**[08:40] Elmore**
Yes. Three-dimensional magic
squares are high-level magic,
**[08:44] Elmore**
but they require tremendous
mana and mental strength.
**[08:48] Angeline**
Is that fancy trick the best you can do?
**[09:08] Angeline**
Huh. They're faster and heavier
now that they're visible,
**[09:12] Angeline**
but I can easily predict your trajectories—
**[09:14] Angeline**
So some of them move independently.
**[09:18] Angeline**
If you need to use tricks,
you must be weaker than me.
**[09:22] Angeline**
Huh? The pain's already gone.
**[09:25] Angeline**
Of course! It must be
the power of my dad's love!
**[09:48] Angeline**
I have questions for you.
**[09:50] Angeline**
Who are you, and what do you want?
**[09:53] Byaku**
I could ask you the same thing.
**[09:55] Byaku**
Who the hell are you?
**[09:57] Angline**
I am Ange, daughter of
Belgrieve the Red Ogre.
**[10:01] Byaku**
You're *whose* daughter? Don't screw with me!
**[10:12] Byaku**
Why is it always you?
**[10:16] Angeline**
What're you talking about?
**[10:18] Angeline**
Are you not human?
**[10:28] Angeline**
Seriously, what are you?
**[10:30] Angeline**
Some new kind of monster?
**[10:35] Byaku**
I'm like you.
**[10:42] Angeline**
Shoot.
**[10:43] Angeline**
He escaped.
**[10:50] Belgrieve**
*Those strange clouds again.*
**[10:53] Belgrieve**
*This fight isn't over yet.*
**[10:59] Miriam**
Huh? Where's Ange?
**[11:01] Belgrieve**
She suddenly woke and flew out of bed.
**[11:04] Belgrieve**
Asked us to hold down the fort.
**[11:07] Anessa**
You mean...
**[11:08] Belgrieve**
I'm worried about Lady Helvetica. Let's go.
**[11:12] Miriam**
It's an emergency, everyone!
**[11:14] Helvetica**
What's the matter?
**[11:15] Belgrieve**
More dark clouds have gathered.
**[11:18] Helvetica**
If they come, it'll be tonight.
**[11:20] Helvetica**
Just as I thought.
**[11:22] Seren**
Helvetica, Sasha is...
**[11:24] Helvetica**
Sending her alone to capture him
may have been a mistake.
**[11:33] Butler**
Milady! There are more undead.
**[11:37] Helvetica**
They're here?
**[11:38] Helvetica**
Remain calm and dispatch them.
**[11:40] Butler**
At once.
**[11:41] Anessa**
We'll help, too.
**[11:43] Miriam**
I'm still itching to fight!
**[11:47] Belgrieve**
I'll go with them as well.
**[11:53] Belgrieve**
What's wrong?
**[11:54] Helvetica**
I'd like you stay with me.
**[11:58] Helvetica**
I feel anxious without Sasha and Ash.
**[12:03] Belgrieve**
Very well. I'm not that strong,
but I shall protect you.
**[12:08] Belgrieve**
They should be fine outside with those two.
**[12:11] Helvetica**
How very dependable.
**[12:13] Belgrieve**
Let's move.
**[12:15] Belgrieve**
If we need to flee, we'll be
trapped on the second floor.
**[12:21] Belgrieve**
Anyone here on the second floor—
**[12:33] Belgrieve**
Most of the undead outside
should be defeated.
**[12:37] Belgrieve**
Take everyone left in the mansion
and find Ane and Miri.
**[12:40] Helvetica**
I will. But what will you do, Mr. Belgrieve?
**[12:45] Belgrieve**
I'll hold this off until you can get outside.
**[12:53] Belgrieve**
Hurry!
**[12:54] Helvetica**
Ms. Angeline would be
devastated if you fell in battle!
**[12:57] Belgrieve**
I'm the one who taught her that,
above all else, an adventurer must live.
**[13:02] Belgrieve**
I'd never be able to face her if I died here.
**[13:08] Helvetica**
Good luck.
**[13:10] Helvetica**
Seren, let's go.
**[13:12] Seren**
Okay.
**[13:14] Belgrieve**
Now then...
**[13:19] Belgrieve**
*My body feels freakishly light.*
**[13:22] Belgrieve**
*Is this the effect of the elven remedy?*
**[13:25] Belgrieve**
Too slow!
**[13:35] Belgrieve**
Is that all?
**[13:43] Belgrieve**
We met at the tavern.
**[13:45] Belgrieve**
Are you all right? This place is dangerous—
**[13:48] Charlotte**
Stay back!
**[13:49] Charlotte**
Everyone keeps interfering with my plans...
**[13:52] Charlotte**
Why do they have to do this?!
**[13:55] Belgrieve**
Are you...
**[13:56] Charlotte**
Die!
**[14:04] Butler**
Everyone from this wing is here.
**[14:10] Helvetica**
It's all right.
**[14:12] Helvetica**
The adventurers are dispatching the threat.
**[14:15] Helvetica**
Now, let us go.
**[14:18] Helvetica**
*All I can do is offer mere consolations.*
**[14:22] Helvetica**
* I've made decent progress since I took*
* over after my father's passing.*
**[14:26] Helvetica**
*I've gained people's trust.*
**[14:29] Helvetica**
*Perhaps it made me arrogant.*
**[14:32] Helvetica**
* I ignored the nobles opposing me,*
* believing the problem would resolve itself.*
**[14:37] Helvetica**
* The citizen's lives change according*
* to those who stand above them.*
**[14:44] Helvetica**
* I can easily imagine how*
* things would turn out*
**[14:47] Helvetica**
* with someone as power-hungry*
* as Malta in control.*
**[14:50] Helvetica**
* But if I'm too preoccupied with my own*
* scruples, then I can't govern properly.*
**[14:59] Helvetica**
*Surely my father bore this burden as well.*
**[15:11] Miriam**
Good. You're all okay.
**[15:15] Anessa**
Where's Mr. Bel?
**[15:16] Seren**
He's fighting so we could get away.
**[15:19] Miriam**
What? We have to go help him!
**[15:22] Anessa**
Mr. Bel will be fine.
**[15:24] Anessa**
Besides, we have to defend this area.
**[15:27] Miriam**
Right.
**[15:28] Anessa**
Where in the world did Ange get off to?
**[15:35] Anessa**
There's more of them.
**[15:37] Seren**
Sister!
**[15:38] Helvetica**
Th-That's...
**[15:44] Helvetica**
Father...
**[15:48] Seren**
No... it can't be.
**[15:51] Anessa**
How heartless!
**[15:55] Helvetica**
Undead perish when their heads are destroyed.
**[15:58] Helvetica**
*This is a test.*
**[16:00] Helvetica**
* Even a lady must face realities*
* she would rather not see.*
**[16:05] Anessa**
Don't push yourself.
**[16:07] Helvetica**
No, this is my responsibility.
**[16:11] Helvetica**
* Father, now I shall take up*
* the mantle you had to bear!*
**[16:24] Belgrieve**
Stop this!
**[16:27] Belgrieve**
*If I just keep defending, I'll never last.*
**[16:29] Belgrieve**
*But I'm fighting a mere child.*
**[16:31] Charlotte**
How dare you dodge all my attacks.
**[16:41] Charlotte**
What is this?!
**[16:45] Belgrieve**
What's happening?
**[16:47] Charlotte**
No, I don't want this!
**[16:48] Charlotte**
Help me, Father! Mother!
**[16:51] Belgrieve**
*Cutting off her arm would save her, but...*
**[16:55] Belgrieve**
*I know! Would this work?*
**[17:11] Belgrieve**
Are you all right?
**[17:14] Charlotte**
That was scary...
**[17:16] Charlotte**
That was so scary!
**[17:21] Belgrieve**
*Now she's acting like a kid her age.*
**[17:28] Byaku**
Let's go.
**[17:36] Charlotte**
Th-Thank you.
**[17:44] Angeline**
Dad!
**[17:48] Belgrieve**
Ange! You're all right.
**[17:50] Angeline**
Yeah. I'm glad you are too, Dad.
**[17:53] Angeline**
I mean, I knew you would be.
***SIGN*** Those useless fools!
***SIGN*** If they haven't contacted me, does that mean they've failed?
**[18:03] Soldier 1**
Count Malta.
**[18:05] Soldier 2**
Where are you going alone at this hour?
***SIGN*** We're dealing with an emergency.
***SIGN*** I thought I'd help patrol.
**[18:13] Soldier 1**
How admirable. You must be exhausted.
**[18:17] Soldier 2**
There's wine at the guard station.
**[18:19] Soldier 2**
Why don't you rest there?
***SIGN*** Ah, yes.
**[18:23] Malta**
*My soldiers will be at the station.*
**[18:25] Malta**
*I suppose I should meet up with them.*
***SIGN*** In that case, show me the way.
**[18:30] Soldiers**
Yes, milord.
**[18:35] Soldier 1**
This is the officer's lounge.
***SIGN*** Very good.
**[18:41] Helvetica**
Thank you for coming.
***SIGN*** Lady Helvetica...
***SIGN*** Wh-What's the meaning of this?
**[18:50] Helvetica**
You should've lived quietly in Hazel.
***SIGN*** What? What are you talking about?
***SIGN*** What are you accusing me of?
**[18:59] Helvetica**
You know precisely what, don't you?
***SIGN*** W-Wait! If you kill me without proof, you'll lose the people's trust!
**[19:11] Helvetica**
They'll find out sooner or later.
***SIGN*** Th-This is tyranny!
**[19:17] Helvetica**
My naïveté invited this incident.
**[19:22] Helvetica**
But your foul plotting steeled my resolve.
***SIGN*** You think you'll get away with this?!
***SIGN*** I'm a nobleman of a dukedom!
***SIGN*** My blood is different from yours!
**[19:34] Helvetica**
Yes, and I'm glad of it.
**[19:37] Helvetica**
The very thought of sharing blood
with you makes my skin crawl.
**[19:44] Helvetica**
Leave his body by the roadside.
**[19:48] Helvetica**
The valiant Count Malta was killed
**[19:51] Helvetica**
by scoundrels while he was
out patrolling alone.
**[20:07] Belgrieve**
What are you doing, Ange?
**[20:10] Angeline**
Filling up on dad energy while I can.
**[20:13] Belgrieve**
What good is that?
**[20:15] Angeline**
It makes me strong!
**[20:17] Belgrieve**
I see.
**[20:18] Belgrieve**
Well, I should get going.
**[20:21] Sasha**
Master, I'm disappointed
we didn't get to duel.
**[20:24] Sasha**
Until next time!
**[20:25] Seren**
Thank you so much for your help.
**[20:27] Seren**
I do hope you'll come again.
**[20:30] Belgrieve**
Lady Sasha, please take care
of yourself first.
**[20:34] Belgrieve**
And thank you, Lady Seren.
**[20:37] Angeline**
Dad.
**[20:38] Angeline**
Won't you come with us to Orphen?
**[20:40] Angeline**
We could find a big place to rent together.
**[20:44] Belgrieve**
I'm really touched.
**[20:47] Angeline**
Then...
**[20:48] Belgrieve**
But if I moved, you'd never
visit Turnera again.
**[20:52] Angeline**
You mean...
**[20:54] Belgrieve**
I consider Turnera our home.
**[20:57] Belgrieve**
I'd like to keep protecting it
so you can come back anytime.
**[21:02] Belgrieve**
You love Turnera, don't you?
**[21:05] Angeline**
Yeah, I do.
**[21:08] Angeline**
I'll do my best.
**[21:09] Angeline**
I'll work hard so I can come home next fall.
**[21:12] Miriam**
Me, too!
**[21:14] Anessa**
We'll come by with her.
**[21:15] Helvetica**
Mr. Belgrieve!
**[21:20] Helvetica**
I made it in time...
**[21:21] Belgrieve**
Lady Helvetica.
**[21:23] Helvetica**
I do hope you'll visit us again.
**[21:26] Helvetica**
I'll be waiting for you.
**[21:28] Belgrieve**
Thank you.
**[21:29] Belgrieve**
You honor me with—
**[21:33] Helvetica**
I'll settle for your cheek for now,
but next time...
**[21:37] Belgrieve**
Please don't tease me too much.
**[21:40] Angeline**
Dad...
**[21:42] Angeline**
Are you looking for breasts after all?!
**[21:44] Belgrieve**
What are you talking about?
**[21:51] Belgrieve**
Well, I'm off.
**[21:53] Angeline**
Okay.
**[21:55] Angeline**
Take care now, Dad.
**[21:58] Belgrieve**
Yeah. I'll see you again.
