SIGN Boy?
[00:07] Subaru
This can't be...
SIGN What's wrong?
[00:19] Felix
You were spaced out, so I had to pick on you.
[00:21] ---
Nyow that was a satisfying reaction!
[00:23] Subaru
Felis?
[00:25] Felix
Who else do I look like?
[00:26] Felix
Did you inhale too much of
the White Whale's fog?
[00:29] Subaru
Uh, no... I'm fine.
[00:32] Subaru
That told me what I wanted to know.
[00:35] Subaru
That means...
[00:36] Subaru
My save point was updated?
[00:45] Subaru
There are a few new things
[00:48] ---
I've realized about the Witch's Cult.
[00:51] Subaru
Does anyone know of, like...
[00:53] Subaru
a power you can use to overwrite
someone's consciousness,
[00:57] Subaru
so you psychologically possess them?
[01:00] Julius
In other words,
[01:01] Julius
you think the Sin Archbishops
may have such an ability?
[01:06] Subaru
Yeah, I call it "possession."
[01:10] Subaru
It's how he stays alive.
[01:12] Subaru
It would explain how he keeps
popping up everywhere, right?
[01:16] Julius
In an old book, I saw a research
account of a similar subject.
[01:21] Julius
It's a magic that has been lost,
[01:23] Julius
but the technique only works
under certain conditions.
[01:26] Subaru
Conditions?
[01:28] Julius
Only members of the Witch's Cult,
[01:30] Julius
and only a limited number of those,
[01:33] ---
are thought capable of it.
[01:35] Felix
And those would be the fingers?
[01:37] Julius
Most likely, they are the user's spare bodies.
[01:40] Julius
It's quite a tasteless arrangement.
[01:42] Julius
I suppose one might call it
worthy of a Sin Archbishop.
[01:45] Subaru
So if the Sin Archbishop's confidants,
[01:47] Subaru
the fingers, were wiped out...
[01:51] Julius
If that happened,
[01:53] ---
his soul would have nowhere to go.
[01:56] Julius
And that would be the end of him.
[01:59] Julius
We should first eliminate the
fingers in the forest,
[02:02] Julius
and then face Sloth directly.
[02:04] Julius
That is my conclusion.
[02:09] Subaru
Guys, I need to say one more thing...
[02:14] Subaru
Sorry, but I don't think
it's only the fingers.
[02:18] Subaru
I think he may be able to possess me, too...
[02:21] Subaru
What do you think I should do?
[02:24] Both
Huh?
[02:27] Bordeaux
Filthy woman!
[02:28] Priscilla
Then, will you also apologize for being born?
[02:30] Priscilla
You silver-haired half-elf.
[02:31] Priscilla
Margrave Mathers endorses
a half-devil? Utter foolishness!
[02:33] Rickert
This is a joke!
[02:33] Priscilla
Then, will you also apologize for being born?
[02:36] Emilia
You know, I had hopes for you.
[02:37] Bordeaux
Filthy woman!
[02:38] Emilia
I thought maybe you...
[02:40] Emilia
That only you wouldn't give
me special treatment.
[02:42] Subaru
I can't do that.
[02:44] Subaru
I can't look at you the way I look at others.
[02:49] Subaru
It's impossible.
[02:53] Emilia
I have no connection to the witch...
[02:53] Priscilla
You silver-haired half-elf.
[02:54] Bordeaux
Margrave Mathers endorses a half-devil?
[03:05] Puck
Lia...
[03:06] Puck
Your forehead is all wrinkled.
[03:11] Emilia
Good morning, Puck.
[03:12] Emilia
You're early today.
[03:14] Puck
Morning, Lia.
[03:15] Puck
I thought I'd try going to sleep
and waking up earlier.
[03:19] Puck
That's a lie.
[03:21] Puck
The truth is that I was worried about you.
[03:24] Puck
You've had it rough lately.
[03:26] Puck
Especially yesterday...
[03:34] Emilia
It was nothing I didn't know already.
[03:37] Puck
Even if you know you'll fall,
[03:39] Puck
when it happens, you still hurt and bleed.
[03:46] Emilia
What do you think I should do, Puck?
[03:49] Emilia
No, not just me...
[03:52] Emilia
How can I be better to everyone,
and have them be better to me?
[03:59] Puck
I think you should do what you want.
[04:02] Puck
I'll be on your side, no matter what you do.
[04:07] Puck
And no matter what,
[04:09] Puck
you can't abandon that village, right?
[04:12] Puck
Early this morning,
Ram headed out there again.
[04:16] Puck
Maybe we should wait to hear from her.
[04:23] Puck
I'm going to check on Betty.
[04:26] Emilia
Oh... Okay.
[04:28] Emilia
Tell her hello for me.
[04:33] Emilia
Ram?
[04:35] Ram
Emilia-sama, you have a visitor.
[04:39] Emilia
You are...
[04:41] Emilia
from Crusch-sama's household, aren't you?
[04:45] Wilhelm
I am Wilhelm Trias.
[04:48] Wilhelm
I have come on my master's behalf.
[04:51] Emilia
On Crusch-sama's behalf?
[04:53] Emilia
I received a blank letter
from her yesterday...
[04:56] Wilhelm
I see, so it was true.
[04:59] Wilhelm
While this shames me to say,
[05:01] ---
the letter contradicted the message
my master wished to send.
[05:06] Emilia
Oh... It was a mistake, then?
[05:08] Wilhelm
Yes, Emilia-sama and Ram-dono...
[05:12] Wilhelm
We would like to evacuate those remaining
[05:14] ---
in the mansion, along with the villagers.
[05:18] Wilhelm
That is Crusch-sama's will.
[05:20] Emilia
What?
[05:21] Emilia
There's a ring of criminals near the forest?
[05:24] Ram
Yes.
[05:25] Ram
The punitive force this messenger brought
[05:28] Ram
already prepares to fight the enemy.
[05:31] Emilia
But why would Crusch-sama do
so much to help this domain?
[05:36] Wilhelm
The margrave sent my master a proposal
[05:40] Wilhelm
for an alliance with respect
to the royal selection.
[05:43] wilhelm
The condition is a share of the
mining rights in Elior Forest.
[05:48] Wilhelm
Do you understand?
[05:51] Emilia
So that's what this is about.
[05:53] Wilhelm
But evacuating all the villagers
to the capital will be difficult.
[05:58] Wilhelm
Half of them will go to the capital.
[06:02] Ram
I will lead the other half to
safety in the Sanctuary.
[06:06] Ram
Roswaal-sama is heading there now.
[06:09] Emilia
O-Oh, I see...
[06:11] Emilia
Then, discussion on the
matter is already over.
[06:16] Emilia
But isn't there something strange about this?
[06:19] Emilia
It all seems too well-timed—
[06:22] Subaru
Pardon me.
[06:24] Subaru
The group hiding in the forest has
been observed moving strangely.
[06:28] Subaru
We haven't a moment to waste!
[06:30] Subaru
Once they make their move, the entire
region will be a sea of blood!
[06:34] Subaru
What will it be, Captain?
[06:36] Subaru
No, Sword Demon Wilhelm-dono?
[06:39] Wilhelm
Emilia-sama?
[06:45] Emilia
I understand.
[06:47] Emilia
I gratefully accept your kindness.
[06:50] Emilia
Has this been explained to the villagers?
[06:52] Ram
They have been informed in a
timely fashion, Emilia-sama.
[06:57] Emilia
I see...
[06:58] Puck
Betty says she'll stay here.
[07:00] Emilia
Puck!
[07:02] Beatrice
Betty can't go.
[07:04] Beatrice
I'll wait for your return, I suppose.
[07:07] Beatrice
You don't have to worry.
[07:11] Puck
That's what she said.
[07:12] Puck
Well, in Betty's case,
[07:13] ---
the forbidden library is a much safer place.
[07:16] Puck
Besides, due to her contract,
she can't leave the mansion.
[07:20] Puck
Lia, you know that, right?
[07:22] Emilia
No fair using that as a reason...
[07:25] Puck
So, since my cute little sister
will be staying here,
[07:29] Puck
we shouldn't do anything to the mansion.
[07:31] Puck
Betty is sweet and kind,
[07:33] ---
but she'll show no mercy.
[07:35] Wilhelm
Understood, Great Spirit.
[07:42] Puck
You should do what you want.
[07:45] Puck
I'm on your side, and yours alone.
[07:52] Emilia
We will evacuate.
[07:54] Emilia
I don't want to endanger the villagers!
[08:05] Petra
We're ready, miss.
[08:09] Emilia
Um, I think there's been some kind of mistake.
[08:13] Ram
No, given the number of people and carriages,
[08:17] Ram
we must ask you to ride with these children.
[08:21] Ram
It's a necessary measure.
[08:23] Emilia
Can't we put them in a different carriage?
[08:25] Emilia
That would be better for the children—
[08:27] Subaru
You think no one would want to ride with you?
[08:31] Subaru
Have you asked the kids how
they feel about that?
[08:35] Subaru
Perhaps you just assume
[08:37] ---
that they hate you and wouldn't
want to be around you?
[08:42] Emilia
That isn't...
[08:44] Emilia
I don't need to ask them.
[08:46] Emilia
I know it's best for everyone.
[08:48] Subaru
Six children and one dragon-drawn carriage.
[08:51] Subaru
If we stumble here,
[08:53] Subaru
how will your wish ever come true?
[08:56] Emilia
A-Are you...
[08:59] Subaru
What do you think, Petra?
[09:01] Subaru
Do you refuse to ride in the
same carriage as she does?
[09:08] Petra
Of course not.
[09:11] Petra
Aren't you the lady with the potato stamps?
[09:14] Petra
The one who came with Subaru to
watch our radio calisthenics!
[09:19] Emilia
Well...
[09:21] Petra
We couldn't see your face,
[09:23] Petra
but we saw you having a good
time talking with Subaru!
[09:30] Petra
Come and ride with us.
[09:34] Mildo
And me!
[09:35] Dyne
I wanna ride with you!
[09:37] Lucas
Come on, let's go!
[09:40] Kid
Let's go.
[09:41] Kid
Come with us!
[09:43] Kid
And it's gonna be pulled by a dragon!
[09:46] Kid
That's so cool!
[09:50] Emilia
Ram, take care of things at the Sanctuary.
[09:53] Emilia
Be sure to protect the villagers.
[09:55] Ram
You take care, as well, Emilia-sama.
[09:58] Emilia
I need to thank you, too.
[10:02] Emilia
Where did he go?
[10:14] Subaru
Now, I get it...
[10:15] Subaru
We couldn't figure out how
you guys stayed in touch.
[10:18] Subaru
Those metia sure are handy, huh?
[10:23] Subaru
You owe a heavy price for
the crime of interrupting
[10:26] Subaru
my touching reunion with Emilia!
[10:29] Ketty
You're...
[10:32] Wilhelm
Too slow.
[10:38] Subaru
In short, we knew you were a spy.
[10:42] Subaru
How we learned is a trade secret.
[10:44] Subaru
So we set a trap for you,
[10:47] ---
the contact for the Witch's Cult.
[10:51] Subaru
Two hours.
[10:53] Subaru
You gave your buddies a schedule
that was two hours behind.
[10:57] Subaru
We'll use the time to get Emilia
and the others away,
[11:00] Subaru
crush the fingers that know our location,
[11:04] Subaru
and make preparations to
crush your Sin Archbishop.
[11:09] Subaru
Having your enemy a step ahead,
ready to destroy you...
[11:12] Subaru
You're about to learn just
how terrifying that is.
[11:21] Emilia
May the blessing of the spirits be with you.
[11:32] Wilhelm
Good luck.
[11:35] Felix
This is what enabled you to trick
Emilia-sama and chase her off?
[11:40] Subaru
Don't put it that way...
[11:41] Subaru
Even if it's accurate, it makes me sound bad!
[11:44] Julius
That robe was woven with quite an odd spell.
[11:47] Subaru
It was handmade by Roswaal.
[11:50] Subaru
Apparently, a spell is woven into
it that prevents recognition.
[11:53] Subaru
Originally, it was Emilia's...
[11:58] Subaru
I didn't steal it, okay?
[11:59] Felix
Hmm...
[12:01] Felix
Well, the plan to correct the mistake
with the blank letter worked out!
[12:13] Ram
"The letter was a
mistake... It was my fault"?
[12:18] Felix
And you worked so hard to convince
the villagers, Subaru-kyun...
[12:24] Subaru
Please!
[12:25] Subaru
Emilia's... She's a girl who will
be friends with all of you,
[12:29] Subaru
so I want you to give her the
chance to convince you!
[12:34] Subaru
I'm sure everyone has a lot you'd like to say,
[12:37] Subaru
but please let us protect you long
enough that you get that chance!
[12:46] Head
Jeez, you really are hopeless, Subaru-sama.
[12:55] Head
If you insist on protecting us so much,
[12:59] Head
what choice do we have?
[13:01] Old
Getting old is just awful.
[13:03] Old
I think my tear glands have weakened.
[13:07] Subaru
Thank you all...
[13:08] Muraosa
We should be thanking you, Subaru-sama.
[13:15] Felix
You actually moved me.
[13:16] Subaru
Don't bring it back up! It's embarrassing!
[13:20] Felix
That just leaves...
[13:22] Felix
Welcome back! How did it go?
SIGN We pulled off a surprise attack on the ones our location was leaked to.
SIGN If I messed up, I'll retire.
SIGN The map did a nice job showin' the way.
[13:32] Subaru
Then the mark on the map
really was their base!
SIGN I dunno if you'd call 'em fastidious or high-strung, but it worked against 'em.
SIGN And we got what we were after.
SIGN This should shut down their communications network.
[13:48] Mimi
Hooray! We killed 'em all!
[13:50] Tivey
Don't say that. It makes us sound awful.
[13:53] Tivey
We took a prisoner, too!
[13:55] Subaru
A prisoner?
[14:01] Subaru
He isn't in the Witch's Cult...
[14:04] Subaru
I wondered why you hadn't
shown up. You were caught?
[14:09] Otto
I don't know who you are,
but thanks for saving me.
[14:14] Otto
Actually, I'm really in no mood to
say and mean that, damn it!
[14:24] Julius
Everything is ready.
[14:27] Julius
Subaru, we can leave at any time.
[14:30] Subaru
Let's do this, everyone.
[14:32] Subaru
We'll begin as planned.
[14:34] Subaru
Now...
[14:36] Subaru
This time, we'll finish it!
[14:39] Subaru
Let us show both Fate and
Sloth what we can do!
[14:50] Betel
I've been waiting for you, believer in love.
[14:55] Betel
I am a Sin Archbishop of the Witch's
Cult, representing Sloth...
[14:59] Betel
Betelgeuse Romanée-Conti!
[15:04] Subaru
Pleasure to meet you, great Sin Archbishop.
[15:08] Subaru
If you could find it within you to add my
body and soul to your fingers' ranks,
[15:12] ---
carrying out the Ordeal, there would
be no greater honor.
[15:18] Betel
How wondrous, how vivacious your faith is!
[15:24] Betel
To think there was such a devout believer.
[15:27] Betel
Please forgive my sloth,
for failing to find him.
[15:29] Betel
Forgive me! Forgive me! Forgive me!
Forgive me! Forgive me!
[15:34] Subaru
Please stop, Archbishop.
[15:36] Betel
Ah... But, but, but...
[15:39] Betel
I have no way to atone for my sloth
and foolishness but by punishment.
[15:44] Subaru
That's not true.
[15:47] Subaru
The witch wouldn't want to see
her beloved believer in pain.
[15:50] Subaru
She would be happier to see
you carry out the Ordeal!
[15:54] Betel
You are exactly right...
[15:57] Betel
Yes, the Ordeal.
[15:59] ---
What she needs from me now is the Ordeal!
[16:03] Betel
Your words have opened my eyes.
[16:06] Betel
Thank you! Thank you!
[16:08] Betel
With this Ordeal, we must test her...
[16:11] Betel
To learn if this half-devil
is a worthy vessel,
[16:14] Betel
if she is worthy to put the witch into.
[16:18] Subaru
Put the witch into? Vessel?
[16:21] Betel
If she is, the witch will possess her.
If not, reject her.
[16:25] Betel
If she proves an unworthy
vessel for the witch,
[16:28] Betel
then the witch will be reborn into this
world on the coming fated day...
[16:34] Subaru
You're saying Emilia is secondary,
without intrinsic value, to you?
[16:41] Subaru
You monster...
[16:43] Betel
The words inscribed in the
Gospel tell of her love.
[16:47] Betel
All of it guides my path!
[16:50] Betel
Show me your Gospel.
[16:55] Betel
What is that?
[16:56] Subaru
Just what it looks like. A metia, Archbishop.
[17:01] Felix
Oh, I see him! I see him!
[17:03] Felix
His face looks just as scary as I'd heard!
[17:07] Betel
Exactly who are you?
[17:09] Betel
No! What are you?
[17:12] Felix
Now, then... Tora, Tora, Tora.
[17:21] Subaru
Our surprise attack is a success!
[17:23] Betel
What? Surprise attack... Surprise attack...
[17:29] Betel
Then, what do you think of this?!
[17:34] Betel
How? How can you see my Authority?
[17:39] Subaru
Who knows?
[17:40] Subaru
Ask the witch that left her scent all over me.
[17:44] Subaru
Oh, that's right.
[17:45] ---
Unlike me, you haven't received the pass
that lets you meet the witch anytime.
[17:51] Betel
What do you mean?
[17:53] Betel
How dare you speak as though you
are intimate with the witch?
[17:56] Subaru
We're so close, she's grabbed my heart.
[17:59] Subaru
Literally...
[18:01] Betel
I-Inconceivable!
[18:04] Betel
That cannot be!
[18:07] Subaru
Let's go, Patrasche!
[18:15] Betel
Do not presume you can escape.
[18:19] Subaru
Here he comes, here he comes, here he comes!
[18:20] ---
He's coming, he's coming, he's coming!
[18:22] Subaru
Keep it up, Patrasche!
[18:25] Betel
Futile! Impossible!
[18:26] Betel
Vanish in the face of my diligence!
[18:34] Subaru
Sorry to always rely on you...
[18:36] Subaru
You're the best, Patrasche!
[18:38] Betel
But... But, but, but...
[18:40] Betel
But!
[18:41] Betel
This is the end, the end!
[18:49] Subaru
You guys...
[18:51] Subaru
You almost caught me in that!
[18:53] Subaru
Thanks, though. I thought I was a goner.
[18:55] Mimi
You're welcome! Yay!
[18:57] Tivey
Is that man in the sky the Sin Archbishop?
[19:01] Mimi
Yikes! What the heck is that?!
[19:04] Mimi
There's a man flying, all balled up! Wow!
[19:06] Tivey
I've never seen anything so creepy in flight.
[19:09] Subaru
That's how it looks to you guys?
[19:12] Subaru
Either way, leave him to me.
[19:14] Subaru
Watch the rear, like we planned!
[19:18] Tivey
Got it! You heard him, Sis!
[19:20] Mimi
Aye-aye! Hey, Bro.
[19:22] Mimi
Beat him now, and you'll look awesome!
[19:25] Subaru
Yeah, I got this!
[19:27] Subaru
Bring it on, Archbishop!
[19:29] Betel
What...
[19:31] Betel
Just what... What are you?!
[19:35] Betel
That cannot be.
[19:37] Betel
None of this is in the Gospel,
in the guide to my destiny!
[19:42] Betel
What... Just what are you?
[19:46] Subaru
You've asked that four times.
[19:49] Subaru
If we're talking nightmares,
I've had far more than you.
[19:51] Betel
Then... Then, then... You truly are Pride's...
[19:55] Subaru
My name is Natsuki Subaru,
[19:58] Subaru
the silver-haired, half-elf Emilia's knight.
[20:03] Subaru
I don't know anything about this "Pride"
stuff, but that's the only title I want.
[20:08] Subaru
I don't need any others.
[20:15] Betel
This place is...
[20:17] Subaru
It's a place where my time once ended.
[20:21] Subaru
And it will be where your time ends, too.
[20:27] Subaru
That's what this place is.
[20:30] Betel
If your goal was to lead me out here,
[20:33] Betel
what have you prepared for me?
[20:36] Subaru
What else? Your natural enemy.
[20:38] Subaru
One you and I have in common...
[20:44] Julius
"Natural enemy"?
[20:45] ---
Now, that's a fine thing to call me.
[20:54] Julius
I am Julius Euclius, of the
Lugunica Imperial Knights.
[20:59] Julius
I am the Kingdom's sword that will slay you.
[21:02] Betel
A spirit arts user, are you?
[21:05] Betel
How truly... How truly...
[21:08] Betel
Is this also part of your plot?
[21:11] Betel
I have never known such humiliation!
[21:14] Subaru
Really? Well, make the most of it.
[21:17] Subaru
That's your bill for all you've done.
[21:22] Subaru
Let's do it, Julius.
[21:24] Julius
Are you sure?
[21:26] Subaru
I won't back down, I won't bend, I can't lose.
[21:29] Subaru
I don't want to lose anyone else.
[21:32] Julius
I am the man who brutally beat you.
[21:35] Julius
I still believe my behavior was
backed by meaning and reason,
[21:40] Julius
but that is no more than self-justification,
[21:43] ---
which has nothing to do with you.
[21:46] Julius
Can you trust me?
[21:51] Subaru
I hate you.
[21:54] Julius
Yes, I know.
[21:57] Subaru
Having someone break your arms
and legs like that is traumatic.
[22:00] Subaru
Don't you know the meaning of restraint?
[22:03] Julius
Just so you know, I did hold back quite a bit.
[22:07] Subaru
Seriously? That was you holding back?
[22:10] Subaru
You really are the biggest jerk.
[22:14] Subaru
I really hate you, greatest knight.
[22:19] Subaru
So...
[22:21] Subaru
I will trust you.
[22:24] Subaru
My shame attests to my knowledge
that you are an incredible knight.
[22:29] Julius
Then, with all my soul...
[22:33] Julius
I shall live up to that!
[22:35] Betel
Is this farce over yet?
[22:39] Betel
What do you expect adding a single
spirit arts user to your ranks will do?
[22:43] Betel
I will defeat you all, tear apart
those who remain,
[22:46] Betel
resume the Ordeal, and that is all.
[22:49] Betel
My diligence knows neither slothful
resignation nor demise!
[22:56] Betel
Sloth! Sloth! Sloth!
[22:58] Betel
Sloth!
[23:01] Julius
Al Clarista!
[23:12] Betel
You... You should not be able to see it.
[23:16] Betel
It should be invisible to you.
[23:17] Betel
My Unseen Hand can't be seen, can't be seen...
[23:20] Betel
You can't see it!
[23:22] Betel
And by two... Two people other than me!
[23:24] Subaru
I'm the only one who can see it, Betelgeuse.
[23:27] Betel
Huh?
[23:29] Subaru
Julius can only see what I'm seeing.
[23:33] Subaru
It also feels much creepier than I expected.
[23:36] Julius
I can use Nect to consciously
share your senses,
[23:39] Julius
as well as to maintain them for a while.
[23:42] Julius
When you first proposed this,
I questioned your sanity.
[23:47] Subaru
It worked, didn't it?
[23:49] Subaru
A man's all about guts.
[23:51] ---
You've gotta be open to anything.
[23:54] Betel
Curse you, curse you...
[23:56] Betel
Curse you! Curse you! Curse you! Curse you!
[23:59] Betel
Curse you!
[24:04] Subaru
Sharing a collective body with
you is pretty disgusting.
[24:07] Subaru
Let's get this over with.
[24:09] Julius
Yes, let's.
[24:16] Julius
Using your eyes, I shall slay him...
[24:23] Julius
My friend, Natsuki Subaru!
