[01:30] Lucia
    Scotch eggs, please.
[01:33] Lucia
    I would like one hard-boiled,
    and the other soft-boiled.
[01:37] Kuro
    That will be served with bread.
     Is that acceptable?
[01:39] Lucia
    Yes.
[01:40] Lucia
    The same for you, Master Emilio?
[01:43] Emilio
    Yes... I'll leave it to you.
[01:46] Lucia
    And please prepare twenty
    more to go, as well.
[01:50] Kuro
    Very well.
[01:57] Aletta
    You usually bring your
    grandchildren with you.
[01:59] Aletta
    It's unusual to see you
    bringing a human girl.
[02:03] Lucia
    Aletta, this is...
[02:06] Emilio
    I'm...
[02:08] Emilio
    I'm...
[02:10] Emilio
    a boy!
[02:12] Aletta
    What?!
[02:14] Emilio
    It was only a few hours ago that
    I found out I was coming to Nekoya.
SIGN    The Southern Continent
[02:21] Emilio
    I had left my hometown to go on a journey.
[02:25] Emilio
    I wanted to become stronger.
[02:28] Emilio
    Because I've always looked like this...
[02:32] (Flashback) Guy A
    I love you.
[02:33] (Flashback) Emilio
    Please, no!
[02:35] (Flashback) Guy B
    Marry me.
[02:36] (Flashback) Emilio
    But I'm a boy!
[02:39] Emilio
    I thought those things would stop
    happening if I got stronger.
[02:43] Emilio
    I cut off my hair
[02:44] Emilio
    and put on the strongest-looking
    clothes I could find.
[02:47] Emilio
    But it didn't work.
[02:51] Emilio
    I thought I could get stronger
    if I went on a journey,
[02:54] Emilio
    but I still haven't gained
    any stamina or muscle.
[03:01] (Flashback) Emilio
    The last time I ate was two nights ago.
[03:08] (Flashback) Emilio
    It's no use.
[03:10] (Flashback) Emilio
    I can't...
[03:15] (Flashback) Lucia
    Are you awake now?
[03:19] (Flashback) Emilio
    Where am I?
[03:24] (Flashback) Lucia
    Oh, dear. It appears I've startled you.
[03:27] (Flashback) Lucia
    I'm terribly sorry.
[03:28] (Flashback) Emilio
    Uh, it's okay.
[03:30] (Flashback) Emilio
    Are you... a lamia?
[03:34] (Flashback) Lucia
    Yes. My name is Lucia.
[03:37] (Flashback) Lucia
    I found you unconscious in the forest,
[03:39] (Flashback) Lucia
    and brought you here to take care of you.
[03:41] (Flashback) Emilio
    I'm Emilio.
[03:43] (Flashback) Emilio
    Thank you for your help.
[03:46] (Flashback) Lucia
    And what brought you so
    close to a lamia settlement?
[03:51] (Flashback) Emilio
    I was on a journey to get stronger,
[03:54] (Flashback) Emilio
    and I...
[03:57] (Flashback) Emilio
    I'm sorry.
[03:59] (Flashback) Lucia
    So you passed out because you were hungry?
[04:05] (Flashback) Lucia
    Would you like to have a meal with me?
[04:08] (Flashback) Emilio
    What? Really?
[04:10] (Flashback) Lucia
    Of course.
[04:12] (Flashback) Lucia
    Today is a special day.
[04:14] (Flashback) Lucia
    I will treat you.
[04:19] (Flashback) Lamia A
    There's a new face.
[04:21] (Flashback) Lamia B
    How beautiful.
[04:23] (Flashback) Lamia C
    I wonder where they're going.
[04:25] (Flashback) Lamia B
    Where else could it be?
    Today is the Day of Satur.
[04:29] (Flashback) Lucia
    Please do not be offended.
[04:32] (Flashback) Lucia
    Visitors very rarely come here,
[04:34] (Flashback) Lucia
    so they can't help being curious about you.
[04:37] (Flashback) Emilio
    Oh...
[04:45] (Flashback) Emilio
    We're eating here?
[04:47] (Flashback) Lucia
    Yes.
[04:51] (Flashback) Lucia
    Lumia...
[04:53] (Flashback) Lumia
    Oh, Grandmother. What brings you here?
[04:56] (Flashback) Emilio
    Grandmother?!
[04:58] (Flashback) Lucia
    Is something wrong?
[04:59] (Flashback) Emilio
    Uh, no... nothing at all.
[05:02] (Flashback) Lucia
    I believe today was your day to go to Nekoya,
[05:07] (Flashback) Lucia
    but would you mind letting
    this visitor have your turn?
[05:11] (Flashback) Lumia
    No, I don't mind.
[05:13] (Flashback) Lucia
    Thank you.
[05:14] (Flashback) Lumia
    But in return,
[05:16] (Flashback) Lumia
    I'd appreciate it if you could bring a
    large quantity of one item back for me.
[05:19] (Flashback) Lucia
    All right.
[05:24] (Flashback) Emilio
    Um... What is "Nekoya"?
[05:27] (Flashback) Lucia
    The place we are heading to.
[05:34] (Flashback) Emilio
    What's a door doing here?
SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[05:38] (Flashback) Lucia
    Come, let us go.
[05:42] Emilio
    And now, here I am.
[05:54] Lucia
    Do you find something strange?
[05:56] Emilio
    Yes... There are quite a few
    unusual-looking people here.
[06:00] Emilio
    All the furnishings are so different, too.
[06:02] Lucia
    We are in another world.
[06:04] Lucia
    And they are all people who
    came here from our world
[06:08] Lucia
    through a door much like the one we took.
[06:12] Emilio
    Another world?
[06:14] Lucia
    Well, it appears our food was
    finished while we were talking.
SIGN    Scotch Egg
[06:20] Kuro
    Thank you for waiting.
    Here are your Scotch eggs.
[06:23] Emilio
    Wow! They look delicious!
[06:25] Kuro
    Please enjoy your meal.
[06:27] Lucia
    We will. Thank you.
[06:28] Kuro
    Pardon me.
[06:31] Lucia
    Well, shall we eat?
[06:34] Emilio
    Yes!
[06:37] Emilio
    What kind of bread is this?
[06:38] Lucia
    It's made with something called
    "wheat," a type of grass seed.
[06:42] Emilio
    "Wheat," huh?
[06:47] Emilio
    It smells so nice.
[06:52] Emilio
    This is delicious!
[06:54] Emilio
    The taste and texture are nothing
    like the food I normally eat!
[06:58] Lucia
    Yes, the bread is lovely,
[07:01] Lucia
    but please try the Scotch eggs, too.
[07:04] Emilio
    Okay, then...
[07:15] Emilio
    The crispy, flavorful breading,
[07:18] Emilio
    the meat and oranie seasoned
    with salt and spices,
[07:23] Emilio
    the egg boiled to the perfect hardness...
[07:26] Emilio
    The more I chew it, the more the flavors
    mix together as one in my mouth.
[07:31] Lucia
    Do you like it?
[07:32] Emilio
    Yes! It's delicious!
[07:34] Lucia
    Isn't it?
[07:35] Lucia
    But that's not the only
    way to enjoy Scotch eggs.
[07:40] Lucia
    Next, try putting some of
    this red "chili sauce" on it.
[07:58] Emilio
    Ah, that's spicy!
[08:00] Emilio
    It's spicy, but it has a sourness to it, too.
[08:03] Emilio
    Is this a marmett sauce with togaran in it?
[08:08] Emilio
    Adding the spiciness and
    sourness of the chili sauce
[08:12] Emilio
    makes the meat and egg taste even better!
[08:14] Lucia
    I'm so glad you seem to enjoy it.
[08:19] Lucia
    Now it's time for the soft-boiled one.
[08:22] Emilio
    Soft-boiled?
[08:24] Emilio
    Why didn't they cut this one?
[08:27] Lucia
    You'll see when you cut it yourself.
[08:32] Emilio
    Whoa! The yolk!
[08:35] Lucia
    That's right. The yolk is still
    runny in a soft-boiled egg.
[08:38] Lucia
    Please, go ahead and try it.
[08:41] Emilio
    Okay...
[08:49] Emilio
    The viscous texture of the yolk
[08:51] Emilio
    gives it a richness that the
    hard-boiled one didn't have!
[08:54] Emilio
    It's almost like a sauce
    made to go with the meat!
[08:57] Emilio
    And it softens the spiciness
[08:59] Emilio
    of the chili sauce, making it a great match!
[09:19] Emilio
    They were both incredibly delicious.
[09:22] Lucia
    I'm so glad you liked them.
[09:25] Lucia
    Which was your favorite?
[09:30] Emilio
    It's so hard to choose...
[09:34] Lucia
    Now, Master Emilio, you said
    you were on a journey, yes?
[09:40] Emilio
    Yes.
[09:42] Lucia
    Would you be interested in training under me?
[09:46] Emilio
    What? Training?
[09:48] Lucia
    I am, in fact, quite strong.
[09:51] Lucia
    So strong that I can assume
    the form of a dragon.
[09:54] Emilio
    A dragon?!
[09:56] Lucia
    Yes. I'm sure I can help
    you grow stronger, too.
[10:00] Emilio
    Stronger...
[10:05] Emilio
    Please allow me to train under you!
[10:09] Lucia
    In that case, I look forward
    to working with you.
[10:13] Emilio
    Me, too!
[10:14] Lucia
    Shall we take our leave now?
[10:19] Kuro
    Thank you for waiting.
    Here are your Scotch eggs to go.
[10:24] Lucia
    It was truly delicious, as always.
[10:28] Kuro
    Thank you very much.
[10:30] Aletta
    Um... Emilio-san!
[10:32] Aletta
    I'm, uh... very sorry about what I said!
[10:35] Emilio
    Oh, no...
[10:37] Emilio
    I'm sorry for raising my voice, too.
[10:41] Aletta
    Please come see us again sometime.
[10:44] Emilio
    I will!
[10:46] Lucia
    Well, until next time.
[10:56] Lamias
    Welcome back, Lady Lucia!
[11:01] Lucia
    Master Emilio...
[11:03] Lucia
    My training will be quite rigorous.
[11:06] Lucia
    You had best prepare yourself.
[11:08] Emilio
    Okay!
[11:09] Lucia
    Then, first, please hand out these
    Scotch eggs to all of these ladies.
[11:14] Emilio
    Yes, ma'am!
[11:17] Lucia
    I truly look forward to working with you.
[11:20] Emilio
    Me, too!
[11:38] Baker
    Hey, morning.
[11:40] Master
    Morning.
[11:42] Baker
    I'll stick these in the fridge.
[11:45] Master
    Thanks for always bringing them.
[11:46] Baker
    No problem.
[11:50] Baker
    There, all done.
[11:55] Baker
    The ol' bones start to feel a
    little rickety at our age, huh?
[11:59] Master
    Yeah. Want some tea before you go?
[12:02] Baker
    Nah, I'll pass.
[12:04] Baker
    I haven't finished prepping the shop yet.
[12:06] Master
    Oh, okay.
[12:07] Baker
    Oh, by the way, has the old lady who
    gets the mont blanc been here lately?
[12:11] Master
    No...
[12:12] Master
    I heard she passed away.
[12:15] Baker
    Really?
[12:17] Master
    Though... I wouldn't call
    him her replacement, but...
[12:21] (Flashback) Eleanor
    Mr. Thomas, I would like you to search
    for a certain dessert made with marone.
[12:26] (Flashback) Eleanor
    Will you do that for me?
[12:28] (Flashback) Thomas
    You can find all kinds of
    marone desserts right in town.
[12:32] (Flashback) Eleanor
    I am offering a reward of 3,000 silver coins.
[12:37] (Flashback) Thomas
    Three thousand silver coins?!
[12:39] (Flashback) Eleanor
    That's just how valuable this dessert is.
[12:42] (Flashback) Thomas
    You don't say...
[12:45] (Flashback) Eleanor
    The head maid, Jazelle, used
    to buy them from somewhere,
[12:50] (Flashback) Eleanor
    but she fell ill about a month ago, and...
[12:54] (Flashback) Eleanor
    She would serve that dessert,
    "mont blanc," to special guests.
[13:00] (Flashback) Eleanor
    It became famous as a dessert
    that could only be found here.
[13:05] (Flashback) Eleanor
    Many came here in search of it specifically.
[13:08] (Flashback) Thomas
    I get it. If you can't serve
    something you used to serve...
[13:13] (Flashback) Thomas
    That's a good way for a leader
    to lose the people's trust.
[13:16] (Flashback) Eleanor
    Yes.
[13:19] (Flashback) Thomas
    I'll accept the job.
[13:22] (Flashback) Thomas
    I'll find this "mont blanc"
    stuff for you. Just you watch!
[13:28] (Flashback) Thomas
    That's what I told her,
    but I can't find any leads at all.
[13:34] (Flashback) Thomas
    No one else ever knew how that head
    maid got her hands on the mont blanc.
[13:41] (Flashback) Thomas
    What kind of place can an old lady get
    in and out of without anyone noticing?
[13:46] (Flashback) Thomas
    It couldn't be...
[13:48] (Flashback) Thomas
    inside the mansion, could it?!
[13:52] (Flashback) Maid A
    The head maid brought mont blanc
    here once every seven days.
[13:56] (Flashback) Maid B
    That's right.
[13:58] (Flashback) Maid B
    Lady Eleanor asked her a few
    times to buy it on other days,
[14:02] (Flashback) Maid B
    but she wouldn't do it.
[14:04] (Flashback) Thomas
    Did she do anything differently
    on that one day out of seven?
[14:08] (Flashback) Maid A
    Hmm, I'm not sure...
[14:11] (Flashback) Maid B
    Oh, come to think of it,
[14:13] (Flashback) Maid B
    there's a room where Lady Eleanor's dresses
    and toys from her childhood are stored.
[14:18] (Flashback) Maid B
    She always went in there.
[14:19] (Flashback) Maid A
    I think today is that one
    day out of seven, isn't it?
[14:24] (Flashback) Thomas
    Damn...
[14:26] (Flashback) Thomas
    I really thought it smelled like a lead.
[14:31] (Flashback) Thomas
    But I can't find anything
    out of the ordinary.
[14:35] (Flashback) Thomas
    I guess I was off the mark.
SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[14:43] (Flashback) Thomas
    What the heck is this?!
[14:45] (Flashback) Thomas
    Could it be...
SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[14:48] (Flashback) Thomas
    that the source of her mont
    blanc is through this door?!
[15:01] (Flashback) Aletta
    Welcome!
[15:02] (Flashback) Aletta
    Please take a seat wherever you'd like.
[15:11] (Flashback) Thomas
    What is this place?
[15:13] (Flashback) Aletta
    Um...
[15:14] (Flashback) Aletta
    Are you all right?
[15:16] (Flashback) Thomas
    Oh, er, pardon me.
[15:19] (Flashback) Thomas
    Uh... just what is this place?
[15:23] (Flashback) Aletta
    It's an eatery called Nekoya.
[15:26] (Flashback) Thomas
    A restaurant?
[15:27] (Flashback) Thomas
    Hey, miss! Did an old lady
    named Jazelle ever come here?
[15:31] (Flashback) Aletta
    Yes! You know Jazelle-san?
[15:36] (Flashback) Thomas
    Do you sell a dessert
    called "mont blanc" here?!
[15:38] (Flashback) Aletta
    Yes, we do.
[15:40] Thomas
    This is the place!
[15:43] (Flashback) Thomas
    I'd like one order of the mont blanc.
[15:46] (Flashback) Aletta
    Sure!
[15:47] Thomas
    Since I found it, I might as well eat
    this dessert that's worth 3,000 silver.
[15:53] (Flashback) Aletta
    Would you like black tea with that?
[15:55] (Flashback) Aletta
    There's a discount if
    you order them together.
[15:58] (Flashback) Thomas
    Black tea?
[15:59] (Flashback) Aletta
    It's a drink with a lovely aroma
    that goes well with sweets.
[16:04] (Flashback) Thomas
    Ah, then I'll take that, too.
[16:06] (Flashback) Aletta
    Coming right up!
[16:09] (Flashback) Sarah
    Hey, Aletta!
[16:11] (Flashback) Sarah
    While you're at it, could I get
    another order of minced meat cutlets?
[16:13] (Flashback) Aletta
    Sure!
[16:17] Thomas
    She did say this was an eatery,
[16:19] Thomas
    but it's bizarre to see so many
    different races in one place.
[16:25] Thomas
    Who would've expected to find a
    place like this inside a closet?
[16:28] (Flashback) Sarah
    This your first time here?
[16:31] (Flashback) Thomas
    Yeah... What is this place, exactly?
[16:35] (Flashback) Sarah
    It's Nekoya,
[16:37] (Flashback) Sarah
    a restaurant that serves cuisine from
    another world once every seven days.
[16:41] (Flashback) Sarah
    Everyone calls it the
    Restaurant to Another World.
[16:44] (Flashback) Thomas
    Another world?
[16:45] (Flashback) Thomas
    You mean this is a different world?!
[16:47] (Flashback) Sarah
    Yep.
[16:48] (Flashback) Thomas
    Then... does the door leading to this
    "Nekoya" place pop up in different locations?!
[16:53] (Flashback) Sarah
    It sure does.
[16:55] (Flashback) Sarah
    Abandoned mines, caves, deep in forests...
[16:58] (Flashback) Sarah
    It shows up in all kinds of places.
[17:01] (Flashback) Thomas
    I see...
[17:02] (Flashback) Sarah
    Hey, are you in the same line of work as me?
[17:05] (Flashback) Thomas
    What line of work?
[17:07] (Flashback) Sarah
    You're a treasure hunter, aren't you?
[17:09] (Flashback) Sarah
    I figured you were from the aura about you.
[17:12] (Flashback) Thomas
    Oh, I've already retired, actually.
[17:15] (Flashback) Thomas
    My eyes aren't as sharp as they used to be.
[17:17] (Flashback) Sarah
    Oh, that's too bad.
[17:18] (Flashback) Sarah
    If you were still in the business,
    we could've shared information.
[17:22] (Flashback) Thomas
    Sorry I couldn't meet your expectations.
[17:24] (Flashback) Thomas
    But if you wanna hear old stories,
    I'll tell you some next time.
[17:28] (Flashback) Thomas
    What's your name?
[17:29] (Flashback) Sarah
    My name is... Minced Meat Cutlet.
[17:33] (Flashback) Thomas
    Isn't that the name of the
    dish you just ordered?
[17:37] (Flashback) Sarah
    We all call each other by the
    names of our favorite dishes here.
SIGN    Mont Blanc
[17:42] Aletta
    Thank you for waiting.
    Here's your mont blanc.
[17:45] (Flashback) Aletta
    Feel free to add sugar to the black
    tea if you prefer it that way.
[17:50] (Flashback) Thomas
    This is mont blanc?
[17:52] (Flashback) Thomas
    It has a pretty weird shape.
[17:56] (Flashback) Thomas
    Well, guess I'll try it.
[18:06] Thomas
    What is this?!
[18:07] Thomas
    The marone's been boiled to the point that
    it's sweet all the way to the center?!
[18:10] Thomas
    It doesn't even compare to the
    roasted chestnuts we have with tea!
[18:14] Thomas
    This is making me excited
    to try the bottom part!
[18:19] Thomas
    The whole thing is covered
    with marone... threads?
[18:23] Thomas
    Did they crush the marone
    and mix it with sugar?!
[18:26] Thomas
    It falls apart in my mouth
    and melts right away!
[18:30] Thomas
    The milk is so soft, smooth, and just
    the right level of sweetness!
[18:35] Thomas
    And this fluffy bread-like part that
    tastes like eggs is so sweet and tasty!
[18:40] Thomas
    Every individual component is exquisite
    enough to be a taste fit for nobility,
[18:45] Thomas
    and they've put them all together
    in a single indulgent dessert!
[18:52] Thomas
    Mont blanc... What a luxurious
    dessert you are.
[18:56] (Flashback) Thomas
    Hey, you! The young lady with the black hair!
[19:02] (Flashback) Kuro
    Thank you for waiting.
[19:03] (Flashback) Thomas
    Whoa! I heard a voice speaking
    directly into my head!
[19:07] (Flashback) Thomas
    Was that your voice?
[19:09] (Flashback) Thomas
    Do you always talk to people like that?
[19:11] (Flashback) Kuro
    Yes. I sincerely apologize if I startled you.
[19:16] (Flashback) Thomas
    Nah, I don't mind.
[19:17] (Flashback) Thomas
    I want another order of this mont blanc.
[19:20] (Flashback) Kuro
    Your order has been accepted.
[19:25] Thomas
    This black tea stuff is good, too!
[19:28] Thomas
    It calms the sweetness of the mont blanc
[19:31] Thomas
    and fills my mouth with
    the aroma of tea leaves.
[19:34] Thomas
    When I took this job,
[19:36] Thomas
    I thought she was crazy to offer 3,000
    silver for one little dessert.
[19:41] Thomas
    But now that I know how
    good it is, I understand.
[19:53] (Flashback) Thomas
    Whew, I really pigged out.
[19:56] (Flashback) Thomas
    Ah, excuse me.
[19:57] (Flashback) Aletta
    Yes? What can I do for you?
[20:00] (Flashback) Thomas
    I'd like six mont blanc to take back with me.
[20:02] (Flashback) Aletta
    Of course. I'll get them ready right away.
[20:08] (Flashback) Thomas
    I gotta thank that head maid of theirs.
[20:12] (Flashback) Aletta
    Thank you very much!
[20:16] (Flashback) Sarah
    See you next time, Mont Blanc-san.
[20:24] (Flashback) Thomas
    Yeah, next time, Minced Meat Cutlet.
[20:30] (Flashback) Master
    Thank you for waiting.
[20:33] (Flashback) Thomas
    Oh, thanks a lot.
[20:36] (Flashback) Master
    Sir, I hear you were
    acquainted with Jazelle-san?
[20:39] (Flashback) Thomas
    Oh... Yeah, something like that.
[20:41] (Flashback) Master
    I haven't seen her in some
    time. Is she all right?
[20:46] (Flashback) Thomas
    Uh...
[20:47] (Flashback) Thomas
    She passed away due to an illness.
[20:51] (Flashback) Master
    I see...
[20:52] (Flashback) Thomas
    By the way, are you the owner of this place?
[20:55] (Flashback) Master
    Huh? Yes, I am.
[20:57] (Flashback) Thomas
    So that means you make the food, right?
[21:00] (Flashback) Master
    Yes...
[21:01] (Flashback) Thomas
    You are incredible! I can't believe
    you can make such a tasty dessert!
[21:05] (Flashback) Master
    Uh, actually, I didn't
    make that. It's from—
[21:08] (Flashback) Thomas
    I've never eaten anything like that before!
[21:10] (Flashback) Thomas
    It was seriously good!
[21:14] (Flashback) Thomas
    Well, bye!
[21:17] (Flashback) Master
    Thank you very much.
[21:27] Thomas
    Well, I found where they come from.
[21:29] Thomas
    It's a shame I won't be able
    to eat any more mont blanc now.
[21:33] Thomas
    But according to Minced Meat Cutlet,
[21:35] Thomas
    there are at least enough doors scattered
    around to let all those customers in.
[21:39] Thomas
    Maybe I'll hold off on reporting back
    on this job until I find another door.
[21:46] Baker
    Oh, so someone who knew her comes instead?
[21:49] Master
    And he has the mistaken idea
    that I make the mont blanc.
[21:54] Baker
    Not that you mind, right?
[21:56] Master
    Well, I kind of feel bad.
[21:58] Baker
    Oh, I stayed longer than I meant to.
[22:00] Baker
    See ya.
[22:02] Master
    Yep. Thanks again.
