**[00:18] Russell**
If Crusch-sama's goal should be attained,
**[00:21] Russell**
I'm sure it would suit your
desires, Wilhelm-dono.
**[00:24] Russell**
I expect the best.
**[00:26] Russell**
My, how unusual it is to see you!
**[00:31] Russell**
My apologies.
**[00:33] Russell**
I am the treasurer of the
capital's merchant guild.
**[00:37] Russell**
My name is Russell Fellow.
**[00:39] Russell**
It's a pleasure to meet you,
**[00:43] Russell**
Natsuki Subaru-dono.
**[00:48] Subaru**
Wilhelm-san, who was that?
**[00:50] Wilhelm**
Russell Fellow.
**[00:52] Wilhelm**
Despite what he said,
**[00:54] Wilhelm**
he is shrewd, dealing in all of the capital's
inner and outer financial matters.
**[00:58] Wilhelm**
Now, I was just about to head back inside...
**[01:05] Wilhelm**
Do you have something to say?
**[01:13] Subaru**
People calling themselves
**[01:14] Subaru**
the Witch's Cult plan to attack
Roswaal's domain in three days.
**[01:18] Subaru**
I want to ask for your help in stopping them.
**[01:21] Crusch**
I see.
**[01:22] ---**
So they have made their move.
**[01:24] Felix**
It seems so.
**[01:25] Felix**
Of course, from the moment that Emilia-sama,
a half-elf, entered the scene,
**[01:29] Felix**
we foresaw something like this happening.
**[01:33] Crusch**
I understand the situation.
**[01:35] Crusch**
My next question is how you
chose me to assist you.
**[01:37] Subaru**
Because, to be honest, you seem
the most likely to help right now.
**[01:42] Subaru**
You've helped Rem and me—
**[01:44] Crusch**
Don't misunderstand.
**[01:45] Crusch**
I helped you two because I
was contracted to do so.
**[01:48] Crusch**
If you wish to negotiate, you need
to show me what I stand to gain.
**[01:52] Crusch**
Otherwise, there is nothing to negotiate.
**[01:55] Crusch**
If, with my assistance,
**[01:57] ---**
you can eliminate the threat
posed by the Witch's Cult,
**[02:00] Crusch**
what would my profit be?
**[02:01] ---**
Tell me that.
**[02:04] Subaru**
If you help me out with this problem,
**[02:07] Subaru**
I'll owe a huge debt to your camp.
**[02:10] Crusch**
Should I accept the proposal,
**[02:13] Crusch**
it would mean Emilia's withdrawal
from the royal selection.
**[02:17] Crusch**
You understand that?
**[02:19] Crusch**
What did you expect?
**[02:21] Crusch**
To place your own domain's survival
in the hands of another lord calls
**[02:24] Crusch**
into question your ability to rule the nation.
**[02:27] Crusch**
With that in mind, I ask you again...
**[02:29] Crusch**
If you incur a debt to me through this deal,
**[02:31] Crusch**
it will mean the elimination of
Emilia's camp from the race.
**[02:34] Crusch**
Are you sure you want that?
**[02:38] Subaru**
Even still...
**[02:39] Subaru**
I want your help.
**[02:42] Subaru**
If she dies, everything ends, anyway.
**[02:46] Crusch**
Understood.
**[02:47] Crusch**
In that case, the Karsten family will
render no assistance whatsoever.
**[02:52] Subaru**
Huh?
**[02:54] Crusch**
First of all, the condition
of Emilia's withdrawal,
**[02:57] Crusch**
which you offered in desperation
as an advantage to me...
**[03:02] Crusch**
It carries no weight in this negotiation.
**[03:05] Subaru**
But why?
**[03:06] Subaru**
Isn't removing one of your rivals
enough compensation?!
**[03:09] Crusch**
Are you really not aware?
**[03:11] Crusch**
Emilia's elimination from the royal selection
**[03:13] Crusch**
will happen with or without my involvement.
**[03:17] Subaru**
Then you'll let the Witch's Cult slaughter
**[03:20] Subaru**
all of those villagers in Roswaal's domain?!
**[03:22] Crusch**
Do not change the subject, Natsuki Subaru.
**[03:24] Crusch**
It is Emilia who lacks the
power to protect that domain.
**[03:27] Crusch**
And Emilia whose people will
die for her incompetence.
**[03:30] Crusch**
It is not I.
**[03:31] Subaru**
B-But isn't knowing people will die
and not stopping it wrong?
**[03:35] Subaru**
If you have the power to save
them, why wouldn't you?!
**[03:38] Felix**
Hey, I've heard enough—
**[03:39] Crusch**
It's fine.
**[03:40] Crusch**
Allow me to correct one idea you have.
**[03:43] Crusch**
Say the Witch's Cult does make a move.
**[03:45] Crusch**
That what you say comes to pass.
**[03:47] Crusch**
However, the problem comes afterward.
**[03:49] Subaru**
Afterward?
**[03:51] Crusch**
It's simple.
**[03:53] Crusch**
How do you know when or
where they will attack?
**[03:57] Subaru**
Th-That's...
**[04:00] Crusch**
If you are a member of the Witch's Cult,
**[04:03] ---**
it would make sense.
**[04:04] Subaru**
That's bull—
**[04:04] Rem**
Crusch-sama, please do not make jokes.
**[04:07] Rem**
Of course Subaru-kun isn't
a Witch's Cult member.
**[04:10] Crusch**
Really?
**[04:11] Crusch**
Given what he says,
**[04:13] ---**
if he cannot explain
how he knows these details,
**[04:15] Crusch**
I can draw no other conclusion.
**[04:18] Crusch**
Have you never sensed any
such inclination in him?
**[04:22] Rem**
Never.
**[04:25] Crusch**
Regardless, I cannot lend
assistance to Emilia—
**[04:30] Subaru**
The Witch's Cult is coming!
**[04:33] Subaru**
They'll slaughter everyone in the village...
**[04:37] Subaru**
Kill them.
**[04:38] Subaru**
We just have to kill them!
**[04:40] Subaru**
All we have to do is kill every
single bastard in that cult!
**[04:45] Subaru**
That will solve everything! Everything!
**[04:48] Subaru**
You get that, right?
**[04:49] ---**
We can't let those bastards live!
**[04:52] Subaru**
I'm going to kill them!
**[04:54] Subaru**
Please help me!
**[05:00] Crusch**
Is this why you behave as you do?
**[05:05] Crusch**
Your hatred for the Witch's Cult...
**[05:06] Crusch**
Is that your real reason
for approaching Emilia?
**[05:10] Subaru**
No, I—
**[05:12] Crusch**
What else but murderous intent could
one call that glint in your eye?
**[05:18] Subaru**
You're suggesting I'm using Emilia as a
pretense for revenge against them?!
**[05:23] Subaru**
My hatred has nothing to do
with how evil they are!
**[05:26] Subaru**
They can't be allowed to live...
**[05:28] Subaru**
That's why we have to kill every one of them!
**[05:30] Subaru**
That will save everyone!
**[05:36] Crusch**
I am certain I have told you, Natsuki Subaru.
**[05:39] Crusch**
That if your own lie doesn't fool you,
it will not deceive others.
**[05:42] Subaru**
Why...
**[05:44] Crusch**
You don't know why?
**[05:45] ---**
You haven't once said
**[05:47] Crusch**
that you want to save Emilia.
**[05:59] Wilhelm**
I cannot allow you to come any closer.
**[06:04] Rem**
Subaru-kun,
**[06:06] ---**
please calm down.
**[06:10] Crusch**
I can generally tell when the person
with whom I speak is lying.
**[06:16] Crusch**
I am quite proud of the fact that I have
never been deceived in negotiations.
**[06:21] Crusch**
Speaking from those years of experience,
**[06:24] Crusch**
I can say you are not lying.
**[06:26] Subaru**
W-Well, then...
**[06:27] Crusch**
You adamantly believe that your rant is true.
**[06:30] Crusch**
That is nothing short of madness,
**[06:35] Crusch**
Natsuki Subaru.
**[06:40] Crusch**
Felis, heal his lip.
**[06:42] Subaru**
Don't bother!
**[06:45] Subaru**
Rem, let's go.
**[06:47] Crusch**
Do you have anywhere else to turn?
**[06:49] Subaru**
I hope you become a great ruler...
**[06:52] Subaru**
The kind of dictator who abandons the weak.
**[06:59] Rem**
In my master's stead, I thank you
**[07:03] ---**
for the care you have given us.
**[07:07] Rem**
What will we do?
**[07:08] Rem**
If what you say is true, we have little time.
**[07:12] Subaru**
"If" it's true?
**[07:14] Rem**
We have little time.
**[07:16] Rem**
Shall we return to Roswaal-sama's mansion?
**[07:18] Subaru**
No, there's not much the two of
us could do by going back now.
**[07:22] Subaru**
There aren't enough of us.
**[07:25] Subaru**
What the hell is Roswaal doing?
**[07:27] Rem**
Roswaal-sama has been required to visit
some officials within the domain.
**[07:32] Rem**
He will stay with them for a few days.
**[07:34] Subaru**
That's why he can't do
anything about the attack?
**[07:37] Subaru**
Then, unless we find reinforcements,
we won't get anywhere.
**[07:44] Subaru**
What about Reinhard?
**[07:45] ---**
Wouldn't he help us?
**[07:46] Rem**
Yesterday, he said that he would be
**[07:48] ---**
away from the capital for a
while on a courtesy call.
**[07:51] Subaru**
Damn it!
**[07:52] Subaru**
Why are you all so useless?!
**[08:00] Subaru**
Tomorrow, we'll have to look
for someone else to help us.
**[08:03] Subaru**
You head to the knights' station.
**[08:06] Subaru**
I'm going to talk to one of
the other candidates.
**[08:08] Rem**
Very well.
**[08:11] Priscilla**
The Witch's Cult?
**[08:13] Subaru**
Yes.
**[08:14] ---**
If left alone, they'll hurt lots of people.
**[08:17] Subaru**
Emilia won't be their only victim.
**[08:19] Subaru**
I want to defeat them before that happens!
**[08:21] ---**
That's why I—
**[08:25] Priscilla**
Amusing... You are amusing!
**[08:28] Priscilla**
Indeed.
**[08:29] ---**
Any jester who makes it this
far has mastered his act...
**[08:32] Subaru**
Wh-What's so funny about this?
**[08:35] Priscilla**
I can appreciate your desperation,
**[08:37] Priscilla**
but you haven't thought things through.
**[08:40] Priscilla**
In trying to aid your ally, you corner them,
benefit the enemy, and lose all control.
**[08:45] Priscilla**
You're better off dying.
**[08:48] Priscilla**
In fact, I could just lop off your
head for you right now.
**[08:54] Priscilla**
Still, even in the face
of such harsh treatment,
**[08:58] Priscilla**
the devotion you show for your master
is commendable, if nothing else.
**[09:03] Priscilla**
So...
**[09:05] Priscilla**
I will give you an opportunity.
**[09:07] Subaru**
A-An opportunity?
**[09:08] Priscilla**
Yes, an opportunity.
**[09:10] Priscilla**
What you would call a "chance."
**[09:14] Priscilla**
Lick it.
**[09:15] ---**
Huh?
**[09:16] Priscilla**
Crawl on the floor,
**[09:18] Priscilla**
savoring the shame and humiliation.
**[09:20] Priscilla**
And like a wretched beast,
**[09:22] Priscilla**
like a baby suckling on its mother's teat,
**[09:25] Priscilla**
lick my foot.
**[09:27] Priscilla**
If you can do that,
I'll consider your proposal.
**[09:32] Priscilla**
If you don't want to, that's fine...
**[09:34] Priscilla**
If you'd rather favor your minuscule pride
**[09:36] Priscilla**
and abandon the mistress you wagged
your tail for to the wasteland, fine.
**[09:41] Priscilla**
Either choice you make will entertain me.
**[09:50] Subaru**
F-Fine.
**[10:07] Priscilla**
I guess you really are just
an insignificant man!
**[10:14] Priscilla**
What you just displayed was neither
loyalty nor devotion.
**[10:18] Priscilla**
It's something more filthy, like a dog's
dependence or a pig's greed,
**[10:22] Priscilla**
you lazy pig who knows only how to want!
**[10:24] Priscilla**
A pig's greed is the ugliest thing there is!
**[10:28] Priscilla**
Even if the Witch's Cult is defeated,
**[10:30] Priscilla**
I will strike down any camp you are part of!
**[10:35] Priscilla**
Your careless behavior and attitude
have led me to that decision!
**[10:45] Priscilla**
Aldebaran.
**[10:46] Al**
Hey, now... What happened in here?
**[10:49] Priscilla**
Throw that detestable fool out of here.
**[10:51] Priscilla**
Or kill him if you want. It matters not.
**[10:53] Al**
I think that matters quite a bit.
**[10:56] Al**
Let's go, brother.
**[10:59] Al**
Don't get so mad, Princess.
**[11:01] Al**
That fierce look will make your
cute face drop in value.
**[11:04] Priscilla**
Unless you want your
ruined face further ruined,
**[11:07] Priscilla**
take him away at once, Aldebaran.
**[11:09] Al**
I've told you not to call me that...
**[11:13] Al**
Can you stand, brother?
**[11:15] Subaru**
Yeah.
**[11:16] Al**
You seem okay.
**[11:18] Al**
I don't know what you were discussing,
**[11:21] Al**
but it looks like it didn't go very well.
**[11:26] Al**
If I take too long,
**[11:28] ---**
she might seriously tell
me to chop you in half,
**[11:31] ---**
so I'm heading back.
**[11:33] Al**
Later, brother.
**[11:36] Subaru**
*That damn stuck-up bitch...*
**[11:39] Subaru**
* She's forgetting that I saved*
* her when we first met!*
**[11:44] Subaru**
Change gears.
**[11:46] ---**
This is no time for those
idiots to bog me down.
**[11:48] Mimi**
Sniff, sniff. Sniff, sniff.
**[11:50] Mimi**
That looks super painful! Are you okee?
**[11:54] Subaru**
Huh?
**[11:55] Mimi**
You smell like blood,
and not just from your lip.
**[11:59] Mimi**
Was your nose bleedy?
**[12:01] Anastasia**
Now, Mimi, no getting into mischief.
**[12:04] Mimi**
'Kay!
**[12:05] Anastasia**
I'm awful sorry she's been botherin' you.
**[12:08] Anastasia**
Hmm? Aren't you...
**[12:11] Anastasia**
Right, you're Natsuki-kun.
**[12:13] Anastasia**
Emilia's knight, Natsuki Subaru-kun.
**[12:16] Anastasia**
Ain't this a coincidence?
**[12:19] Subaru**
Anastasia Hoshin...
**[12:24] Mimi**
Let's eat!
**[12:28] Subaru**
So, about the dragon-drawn carriage...
**[12:30] Anastasia**
You don't beat around the bush.
**[12:32] Anastasia**
You won't make anyone happy
by prioritizin' your own goals.
**[12:36] Anastasia**
Trying to get on the other's good side
is the basic rule of negotiation.
**[12:40] Anastasia**
That's where you're lackin', Natsuki-kun.
**[12:42] Subaru**
Sorry, but I've got a real problem here.
**[12:45] Subaru**
I want to leave the capital tomorrow, so...
**[12:48] Anastasia**
When you're up against my kind,
**[12:49] ---**
tryin' to appeal to sentimentality
is the worst strategy there is.
**[12:54] Anastasia**
But I applaud your effort.
**[12:57] Anastasia**
It's no easy task to find a dragon-drawn
carriage in the capital right now.
**[13:02] Anastasia**
Apparently, someone's buyin' up all of 'em.
**[13:05] Anastasia**
Here. The place at this address
should have a carriage left.
**[13:08] Anastasia**
I've signed it with my own name.
**[13:11] Anastasia**
This'll square everything away.
**[13:15] Subaru**
Don't put on airs...
**[13:17] Anastasia**
I surely will put on airs.
**[13:19] Anastasia**
It's no fun if I just hand
it to ya normally, right?
**[13:22] Anastasia**
I just wanted to chat with
ya about this an' that.
**[13:25] Subaru**
Why bother with that?
You don't gain anything from it.
**[13:28] Anastasia**
I believe there's nothin' in this
world that has no meaning.
**[13:33] Anastasia**
You never know who might
give ya some inspiration.
**[13:38] Subaru**
What do we talk about?
**[13:40] Mimi**
Hey, my lady,
**[13:42] ---**
I wanna eat some more!
**[13:44] ---**
Can I order?
**[13:45] Anastasia**
Sure. Eat all ya like.
**[13:47] Anastasia**
Oh, but don't get your mouth
all messy with sauce.
**[13:49] Mimi**
Wipe my face, please!
**[13:53] Mimi**
Yay! I'll be back!
**[13:57] Anastasia**
Despite her looks,
**[13:58] ---**
she's second-in-command in my private army.
**[14:01] Subaru**
Private army?
**[14:02] Mimi**
Um, um, I want this, too!
And also, um, um...
**[14:02] Anastasia**
It's quite famous in Kararagi.
**[14:05] Anastasia**
The Hoshin Company's personal
mercenary squad, Iron Fang.
**[14:09] Anastasia**
Ain't she super cute?
**[14:11] Anastasia**
Nothing beats sleepin' with her in your arms!
**[14:16] Anastasia**
Lately, lots of people have been
gatherin' in the capital.
**[14:20] Anastasia**
Have you noticed the atmosphere's
different now, Natsuki-kun?
**[14:24] Subaru**
Now that you mention it, everyone did
seem to be in a frenzy.
**[14:27] Subaru**
Because of the royal selection?
**[14:29] Anastasia**
When those on top move, the people move.
**[14:31] Anastasia**
When the people move, things move.
**[14:34] Anastasia**
By the way, the value of things in the
capital is fluctuatin' a lot now.
**[14:38] Anastasia**
Some of the most valuable
products are iron goods.
**[14:41] Anastasia**
Weapons, like swords and spears, are bein'
gathered from both inside and outside.
**[14:46] Subaru**
Iron and weapons?
**[14:47] Subaru**
They're not planning to go to war
with those things, are they?
**[14:51] Anastasia**
It's also possible their objective
isn't to acquire the items,
**[14:55] ---**
but gettin' the economy rolling.
**[14:57] Subaru**
The way you said that...
**[14:58] Subaru**
Is it well known who's
gathering all this iron?
**[15:01] Anastasia**
It's someone you know well, Natsuki-kun.
**[15:05] Anastasia**
Duchess Crusch Karsten.
**[15:08] Subaru**
It's Crusch?
**[15:09] Subaru**
Come to think of it, she did have
a constant stream of visitors...
**[15:14] Subaru**
I get it.
**[15:15] ---**
That's why that Russell guy was there.
**[15:18] Anastasia**
Russell Fellow?
**[15:20] Anastasia**
He's quite a big fish.
**[15:23] Anastasia**
This has been fairly informative.
**[15:26] Anastasia**
Thank you, Natsuki-kun!
**[15:29] Anastasia**
After fightin' with Crusch-san last night,
you just left her place, right?
**[15:33] Anastasia**
I figured it'd be easy to learn
**[15:35] ---**
all sorts of information from your
mouth, eyes, and expressions!
**[15:44] Subaru**
You set me up from the start?
**[15:48] Subaru**
Are you happy with yourself,
**[15:50] ---**
using underhanded methods like that?
**[15:54] Anastasia**
If ya want to convince
someone you're righteous,
**[15:56] ---**
you've gotta show somethin' to merit it.
**[15:59] Anastasia**
And I see no such thing in you.
**[16:02] Anastasia**
The only way to change your reputation
is to replace it with another.
**[16:06] Anastasia**
The things you've done are what
determine your reputation.
**[16:09] Anastasia**
That is, your past.
**[16:10] Anastasia**
And there's no way to change your past,
**[16:13] Anastasia**
so my opinion of ya isn't
gonna change, either.
**[16:16] Anastasia**
The things you've done won't ever go away.
**[16:22] Mimi**
You don't wanna get any closer to my lady.
**[16:26] Mimi**
I'm super strong, you know.
**[16:28] Anastasia**
Thanks, Mimi...
**[16:30] Anastasia**
But you don't have to do anything.
**[16:32] Anastasia**
There's nothin' Natsuki-kun can do, anyway.
**[16:35] Subaru**
Both of you are absolute scum!
**[16:38] Subaru**
Screw you both!
**[16:41] Anastasia**
I guess Julius's efforts went to waste...
**[16:44] Anastasia**
It's partly my fault, though.
**[16:48] Anastasia**
I guess not even you would
do something that dumb.
**[16:51] ---**
I'm relieved.
**[16:52] Anastasia**
Mimi, let's go.
**[16:54] Mimi**
'Kay!
**[16:58] Anastasia**
One last thing.
**[17:00] Anastasia**
The key to negotiation is how prepared
you are before ya come to the table.
**[17:06] Anastasia**
Know what the other person wants,
and dangle it in front of 'em.
**[17:10] Anastasia**
And since all you do is want,
that's where you're lacking.
**[17:14] Anastasia**
Now, shall we go, everyone?
**[17:26] Mimi**
See ya later!
**[17:33] Mimi**
Bye-bye!
**[17:38] Subaru**
Damn it!
**[17:43] Rem**
Subaru-kun, what's wrong?
**[17:46] ---**
Did something happen?
**[17:46] Subaru**
Nothing!
**[17:48] Subaru**
Rem, how did it go?
**[17:51] Rem**
I reported the maneuvers by the
Witch's Cult to the knights' station.
**[17:56] Rem**
I gave them Roswaal-sama's name, but...
**[17:59] Subaru**
Not the response we wanted?
**[18:02] Rem**
It seems the knights have received
several such reports already.
**[18:06] Rem**
Since the Cult's background is unclear,
**[18:09] Rem**
they said they receive countless
unverifiable, anonymous tips.
**[18:12] Subaru**
If that's how the real cultists stay hidden,
**[18:15] ---**
it's no laughing matter.
**[18:17] Subaru**
If we can't scrape a
military force together...
**[18:21] Rem**
What shall we do?
**[18:26] Subaru**
We'll go back to the mansion...
**[18:28] Subaru**
Go back and take Emilia and
Ram away from there.
**[18:32] Subaru**
To the capital or to Roswaal...
Anywhere is fine.
**[18:35] Subaru**
Where they are now is dangerous!
**[18:37] Subaru**
There's no time.
**[18:38] ---**
We should leave now.
**[18:43] Subaru**
* At this pace, we should reach*
* the mansion by morning.*
**[18:46] Subaru**
* Then we'll have plenty of time to take*
* Emilia and run from the Witch's Cult.*
**[18:51] Subaru**
*The question is how to transport her...*
**[18:58] Subaru**
That's...
**[19:01] Otto**
From here to the Mathers domain?
**[19:03] Subaru**
Yeah.
**[19:04] Otto**
It's already late. Isn't it too dangerous?
**[19:06] Otto**
We were planning to camp here tonight.
**[19:09] Otto**
Would you care to join us?
**[19:11] Guy**
You say that, Otto...
**[19:13] Guy**
But I bet you just wanna get rid of some
**[19:15] ---**
of the oil in storage that you
bought out of season, right?
**[19:19] Guy**
That's not my intention at all!
**[19:22] Otto**
Though, it isn't as if I weren't hoping
you could use a little oil...
**[19:28] Rem**
What's this about oil?
**[19:30] Otto**
Oh, I just made a bit of a mistake.
**[19:33] Otto**
And now, I have a lot of oil that
isn't worth much right now.
**[19:39] Otto**
Even if we go to the capital, I don't
know if I can sell it all off...
**[19:44] Otto**
And if I can't, I'm ruined!
**[19:47] Otto**
Ruined...
**[19:50] Subaru**
Otto, I need to talk—
**[19:51] ---**
I mean, ask for your help.
**[19:54] Subaru**
I'll buy all the oil in your carriage.
**[19:58] Subaru**
So in return, lend us transport.
**[20:01] Subaru**
All of the merchants and carriages here...
**[20:03] Subaru**
Anyone who'll sell transportation
for money, sell it to me!
**[20:06] Subaru**
We're transporting people!
**[20:08] Otto**
People?! We don't want any
part in human trafficking!
**[20:11] Subaru**
I'm not running that kind of side business...
**[20:13] Subaru**
There's a village near the Mathers mansion.
**[20:16] Subaru**
I want you to take its
residents somewhere else!
**[20:24] Rem**
We will, of course, thank you properly.
**[20:30] Otto**
If we run through the night,
**[20:32] Otto**
we should enter the Mathers
domain by morning.
**[20:36] Subaru**
Sorry we can't take breaks.
**[20:37] Otto**
No problem!
**[20:38] ---**
Getting rid of my excess stock and
even earning transport fees...
**[20:42] Otto**
I feel invincible!
**[20:43] Rem**
Subaru-kun, I'm sorry.
**[20:45] Rem**
I would like to check the map to
confirm the remaining distance.
**[20:48] Subaru**
Map?
**[20:49] Rem**
It is in your bag.
**[20:53] Subaru**
Oh, this?
**[20:55] Subaru**
It's too dark to see anything, though...
**[20:58] Subaru**
Ah, I know.
**[21:05] Rem**
Subaru-kun, what is that?
**[21:07] Subaru**
A bit of lost technology.
**[21:09] Subaru**
I mean, it's future technology
called a cell phone.
**[21:12] Subaru**
I guess it's a good thing it has
some battery left, barely.
**[21:15] Subaru**
Here, look.
**[21:17] Otto**
Natsuki-san, what is that?
**[21:20] Guy**
Never seen a crystalight like that before.
**[21:22] Subaru**
It's a secret tool the margrave gave me.
**[21:25] Subaru**
Sorry, but you should probably
forget you saw it...
**[21:28] Otto**
Whoa, why does that sound like dark dealings
that reek of nothing but money?
**[21:32] Rem**
Just a bit farther,
**[21:33] ---**
and we should see Flügel's Tree.
**[21:36] Rem**
If we head northeast from there,
the Mathers domain isn't far.
**[21:39] Subaru**
Flügel's Tree?
**[21:41] Otto**
A huge tree that stands so tall in the Lifaus
Highway, it seems to pierce the clouds.
**[21:46] Guy**
Legend has it that, centuries ago,
a wise man named Flügel planted it.
**[21:52] Subaru**
I see...
**[21:54] Subaru**
I can't call that anything but amazing.
**[22:00] Subaru**
Where'd the guy in the bandana go?
**[22:04] Subaru**
He didn't get distracted by the tree
and run off course, did he?
**[22:08] Otto**
What's wrong, Natsuki-san?
**[22:10] Subaru**
Where'd that buddy of yours go?
**[22:12] Subaru**
The older guy in the bandana,
**[22:14] ---**
riding on this side of us?
**[22:19] Otto**
What are you talking about?
**[22:20] Otto**
No one was riding on the
opposite side from me.
**[22:24] Subaru**
Huh?
