[00:01] Echidna
    My name is Echidna...
[00:03] Echidna
    Or perhaps you would know me
    better as the Witch of Greed?
[00:12] Echidna
    Please, it hurts to see you
    look so alarmed by me.
[00:15] Echidna
    Despite who I am, I'm still a
    tender young maiden, you know.
[00:18] Subaru
    Sorry, but...
[00:21] Subaru
    There's no way I'm not going to
    be alarmed when you tell me
[00:23] ---
    you're the Witch of Greed the moment we meet.
[00:25] Echidna
    I see.
[00:27] Echidna
    That's a fair point.
[00:34] Subaru
    What is this place?
[00:36] Subaru
    I was in some dark ruins just a moment ago!
[00:38] Subaru
    When did you move me?!
[00:40] Echidna
    Unfortunately, you're mistaken.
[00:43] Echidna
    You weren't physically moved anywhere.
[00:47] Echidna
    You were merely invited to my tea party.
[00:49] Subaru
    Tea party?
[00:51] Echidna
    A witch's tea party.
[00:54] Echidna
    Are you going to stand there forever?
[00:57] Echidna
    Why don't you at least sit down
    before the tea gets cold?
[01:01] Subaru
    Oh, damn it!
[01:03] Subaru
    All right, fine!
[01:07] Echidna
    You're awfully brave,
[01:09] Echidna
    gulping down tea served by a witch in one gulp.
[01:11] Subaru
    Hah! If you really wanted to kill me,
[01:14] Subaru
    I'd be a pile of ash the very next instant.
[01:16] Subaru
    What's this tea, anyway? It's not bad,
     but it's not good, either.
[01:19] Echidna
    It's something that's produced here.
[01:21] Echidna
    To put it bluntly,
    it's a body fluid of mine.
[01:23] Subaru
    What the hell did you just make me drink?!
[01:26] Echidna
    You truly are a fascinating individual.
[01:29] Echidna
    You're standing right here in
    front of me as if it's normal.
[01:32] Subaru
    Hah! You think you're so pretty that a
    normal person's eyes would fall out?
[01:36] Subaru
    I'll have you know that my eyes are blessed
    throughout the day by the prettiest girl alive!
[01:42] Subaru
    So no matter how many times I look at you,
[01:44] Subaru
    I'm not going to see you as particularly pretty.
[01:47] Echidna
    No, most normal people vomit
    when they stand before me.
[01:51] Echidna
    Funny, right?
[01:52] Subaru
    There's nothing funny about that!
[01:55] Subaru
    What is it you want with me?
[01:57] Echidna
    Nothing, really.
[01:58] Echidna
    You came in here of your own accord.
[02:01] Echidna
    If you want to go back, I'll send you back...
[02:04] Echidna
    But are you sure that's what you want?
[02:06] Subaru
    Huh?
[02:07] Echidna
    An opportunity to talk to the Witch of Greed
[02:10] Echidna
    is not something that just anyone,
    other than you, can earn.
[02:15] Echidna
    The only requirement to have a dialogue
[02:17] Echidna
    is for both of us to exist.
[02:19] Echidna
    Let's remove everything
    unnecessary from the picture.
[02:22] Echidna
    All we need is our words.
[02:24] Echidna
    Let me affirm all the desires,
    the curiosities, the greed,
[02:28] Echdina
    that you seek to satisfy with answers.
[02:33] Echidna
    Now, what would you like to ask me?
[02:38] Echidna
    About the Witch of Gluttony, Daphne,
[02:40] Echidna
    who created beasts that defied the will
    of God to save the world from starvation?
[02:46] Echidna
    About the Witch of Lust, Carmilla,
[02:48] Echidna
    who granted emotions to non-human beings
    in an attempt to fill the world with love?
[02:54] Echidna
    About the Witch of Wrath, Minerva,
[02:56] Echidna
    who struck people to heal them as she
    lamented the state of her war-torn world?
[03:02] Echidna
    About the Witch of Sloth, Sekhmet,
[03:03] Echidna
    who drove a dragon past the
    great waterfall just for a chance to rest?
[03:10] Echidna
    About the Witch of Pride, Typhon,
[03:12] Echidna
    who, out of youthful innocence and cruelty,
     judged criminals one after another?
[03:16] Echidna
    About the Witch of Greed, Echidna,
[03:19] Echidna
    the embodiment of the thirst for knowledge,
    who has done things she regrets
[03:22] Echidna
    even in the realm of death, all in
    pursuit of all types of knowledge?
[03:25] Echidna
    Or...
[03:27] Echidna
    The Witch of Envy, who killed
    all the other witches
[03:29] Echidna
    and used them as sustenance while she
    made the whole world her enemy—
[03:33] Echidna
    the most detestable of them all?
[03:39] Echidna
    Oh, darn.
[03:41] Echidna
    It looks like I've frightened you too much.
[03:44] Echidna
    Such is the nature of a witch.
    It's quite bothersome.
[03:55] Echidna
    Oh, that took less time than I thought.
[03:57] Echidna
    People who are compatible
    really do adapt quickly.
[04:00] Subaru
    What are you saying?
[04:02] Echidna
    That tea you drank?
[04:03] Echidna
    I used the Sloth Witch Factor on
    it to strengthen your resistance.
[04:09] Echidna
    Now you and I can talk at leisure.
[04:12] Echidna
    So... what would you like to ask me?
[04:16] Subaru
    You won't get away with this!
[04:18] Subaru
    What did you do to my body?!
[04:21] Echidna
    Please don't get the wrong idea.
[04:23] Echidna
    I didn't make you drink that tea with
    the intention of doing anything bad.
[04:26] Echidna
    In fact, I find your existence
[04:29] Echidna
    quite desirable.
[04:32] Echidna
    I'm a bit embarrassed, really.
[04:34] Subaru
    Huh?
[04:37] Echidna
    In these past few days, you killed the one
[04:39] Echidna
    who possessed the Sloth Witch Factor, correct?
[04:42] Echidna
    When he died, the Witch Factor
    chose you as its new dwelling.
[04:47] Echidna
    That's also why you were able to
    enter this graveyard unharmed.
[04:51] Subaru
    Graveyard? Like... a tomb?
[04:53] Echidna
    Yes.
[04:54] Echidna
    This is the Witch's Graveyard,
    where my soul is held prisoner...
[04:59] Echidna
    The Sanctuary.
[05:01] Echidna
    You know where the Sanctuary is?!
[05:04] Echidna
    I don't have the experience
    to determine whether
[05:07] Echidna
    you're brave or just very bold...
[05:10] Subaru
    Don't make fun of me!
[05:11] Subaru
    So can I consider this... rather, the forest
    with the ruins where I was before...
[05:15] Subaru
    to be the Sanctuary?
[05:17] Echidna
    You're so mean...
[05:19] Echidna
    That's right. Just as you wanted,
    the Sanctuary is outside the ruins.
[05:24] Echidna
    So, what else would you like to as—
[05:25] Subaru
    And if I ask you, you'll let me back out, right?
[05:29] Echidna
    Sure... I can guarantee that.
[05:32] Echidna
    Hey, isn't there anything
    you want to ask me?
[05:35] Subaru
    Sorry, but I'd rather meet up with
    Emilia outside than talk to you.
[05:40] Echidna
    Huh?
[05:42] Echidna
    Y-You're kidding, right?!
[05:43] Echidna
    I'm the Witch of Greed!
[05:46] Echidna
    Powerful people from around the world have
    come to me in search of my knowledge!
[05:51] Echidna
    So, um... relax, okay?!
    We can just relax and talk!
[05:54] Echidna
    I have knowledge about the truth
    of this world that nobody—
[05:55] Subaru
    Not interested.
[05:56] Echidna
    What?!
[05:58] Subaru
    I'll make time to chat over
    tea with you later, okay?
[06:02] Echidna
    You'd ask a dead woman...
    a witch, at that...
[06:05] Echidna
    to agree to that as if it
    were the simplest thing?
[06:12] Echidna
    I've never had a tea party like this.
[06:15] Echidna
    If you're really going back,
[06:17] Echidna
    I'll just take my compensation first.
[06:19] Subaru
    J-Just so you know, I'm broke beyond compare...
[06:23] Echidna
    Compensation for a witch doesn't mean money.
[06:26] Echidna
    What I desire from you is a vow.
[06:30] Echidna
    You will tell no one of what has
    transpired at this tea party.
[06:33] Echidna
    That is my condition.
[06:34] Echidna
    And, since you're here,
[06:36] Echidna
    I'll send you away with a souvenir.
[06:39] Echidna
    I will grant you the right to
    face the trial of the Sanctuary.
[06:43] Subaru
    The trial of the Sanctuary?
[06:45] Echidna
    You may not understand now,
[06:48] Echidna
    but once you learn where it is,
    you will realize its worth.
[06:51] Echidna
    What feelings will you have
    toward me when that happens?
[06:56] Echidna
    The mere thought gives me
    such beautiful expectations.
[07:07] Subaru
    You... really are a witch, aren't you?
[07:10] Echidna
    Yes, that's right.
[07:12] Echidna
    I'm a very, very evil magic user.
[07:32] Subaru
    Anyway, I need to get out of here,
[07:34] Subaru
    and back to Emilia-tan and Otto.
[07:39] Subaru
    I feel like...
[07:41] ---
    someone said something to me.
[07:48] Subaru
    Otto?!
[07:49] Garfiel
    Look at you, just waltzing out of there!
[07:52] Garfiel
    You've got some nerve, outsider!
[07:55] Garfiel
    Is this like a magmarin laughing
    when it's full of holes?!
[08:12] Subaru
    Ow...
[08:13] Subaru
    Damn it! What the hell?
[08:21] Garfiel
    What a tantalizing choice!
[08:27] Garfiel
    That's a nice ground dragon ya got there.
[08:32] Subaru
    Wait, Patrasche!
[08:38] Garfiel
    You're a real good-lookin' girl, ain't ya?
[08:42] Garfiel
    I'm not gonna hurt ya!
[08:44] Garfiel
    Just take a little nap!
[08:50] Garfiel
    Better thank her for fightin' so hard for ya!
[08:55] Subaru
    Wait... Wait!
[08:56] Garfiel
    I'm gonna throw you guys outta
    this forest half-dead...
[09:00] Garfiel
    Just alive enough to swear you won't
    tell a soul about this place!
[09:04] Subaru
    You know Frederica, don't you?!
[09:08] Garfiel
    Why the hell did I just hear that
    name from your nasty mouth?
[09:12] Subaru
    Why do you think?
[09:13] Subaru
    Just think about it!
[09:15] Garfiel
    Thought about it. Don't know.
[09:16] Garfiel
    I'll think after I bash your skull in!
[09:17] Subaru
    Quit jumping to conclusions without thinking!
[09:19] Subaru
    It's because we know her, too!
[09:22] Garfiel
    Huh?
[09:25] Garfiel
    I'm Garfiel.
[09:28] Garfiel
    If you guys know her, you must've
    heard that name, right?
[09:32] Subaru
    Y-You're...
[09:33] Garfiel
    How the hell did you know I have
    anything to do with Frederica?!
[09:38] Subaru
    Are you being serious right now?
[09:41] Otto
    I just got beaten up for nothing.
[09:44] Otto
    What am I supposed to do with this anger?
[09:46] Garfiel
    You never shut up, do ya, trader?
[09:48] Garfiel
    I apologized, didn't I?
[09:49] Otto
    You call, "Hey, sorry, numbskull,
    I kinda jumped the gun," an apology?!
[09:53] Garfiel
    Anyway, if you'd shown me that
    thing sooner, that woulda done it.
[09:57] Garfiel
    Gotta act on a ganglion
    before ya think about it.
[09:59] Subaru
    Gangli... huh?
[10:01] Garfiel
    Lookin' at that hair, I'm guessin'
    that's the famous Emilia-sama?
[10:04] Garfiel
    The silver-haired half-devil
    that Roswaal's helpin' out.
[10:08] Subaru
    She's a half-elf!
[10:09] Subaru
    Don't you ever call her that again!
[10:12] Garfiel
    Hey, look at that! Guess you can put
    some energy into yer voice after all!
[10:16] Garfiel
    Wanna know how it feels to be a
    bazomazo bein' flung back an' forth?
[10:20] Subaru
    Uh, is there some sort of translation
    glitch happening between you and me?
[10:24] Garfiel
    Huh?
[10:28] Subaru
    Emilia!
[10:30] Subaru
    I'm so glad you're okay!
[10:32] Emilia
    Subaru?
[10:35] Emilia
    Who are you?!
[10:36] Emilia
    Just so you know, I won't let
    you lay a finger on Subaru!
[10:38] Subaru
    Hang on, Emilia-tan!
[10:40] Subaru
    I appreciate it, but as a guy, I have
    mixed feelings about this! Really, I'm fine!
[10:42] Garfiel
    I'm not gonna do anything.
[10:44] Garfiel
    I don't want Ram givin' me hell later.
[10:46] Emilia
    Ram?
[10:47] Subaru
    This is Garfiel.
[10:49] Emilia
    Garfiel... The one Frederica told us about?
[10:54] Subaru
    Yeah, and he's showing us the
    way to the Sanctuary now.
[10:58] Subaru
    Ram and the villagers from
    Arlam are there... right?
[11:02] Garfiel
    Don't wanna believe me? That's your call.
[11:05] Garfiel
    Ain't no turnin' back now, though.
[11:08] Garfiel
    We're already past the barrier.
[11:11] Emilia
    Then we're in the Sanctuary right now?
[11:13] Garfiel
    C'mon, gimme a break.
[11:15] Garfiel
    Weren't you asleep 'cause you
    got close to the barrier?
[11:19] Emilia
    The barrier?
[11:21] Emilia
    Come to think of it, when the stone glowed...
[11:24] Subaru
    It was at the exact same moment.
[11:27] Subaru
    So it was reacting to the barrier, then?
[11:31] Subaru
    But why did only Emilia-tan pass out?
[11:34] Subaru
    I mean, I got transported somewhere, but Otto—
[11:39] Garfiel
    You know damn well why the barrier
    reacted to her and not you two.
[11:45] Garfiel
    It's not just half-elves that thing reacts to.
[11:48] Garfiel
    It works on me and a lot of others, too.
[11:50] Garfiel
    That's 'cause...
[11:52] Emilia
    Because you have mixed blood, too?
[11:56] Subaru
    So the Sanctuary is a place where
    demihumans with mixed blood live?
[12:01] Garfiel
    You guessed it!
[12:03] Garfiel
    We welcome you, Emilia-sama,
    and your two escorts, too!
[12:10] Garfiel
    Roswaal likes to go around
    callin' it the Sanctuary,
[12:14] Garfiel
    but it ain't the kinda place
    that deserves such a nice name.
[12:19] Garfiel
    Nothin' there but a hodgepodge of halfwits.
[12:22] Garfiel
    It's just a dead-end testing ground.
[12:27] Otto
    Um, where should...
[12:30] Ram
    You're back?
[12:31] Ram
    It took you long enough.
[12:35] Subaru
    Ram!
[12:38] Ram
    I haven't a clue which Barusu you are,
[12:40] Ram
    but I'm disappointed by how
    long it took you to get here.
[12:43] Ram
    Ah, but I suppose I was a
    fool to expect more of you.
[12:45] Subaru
    If your story is that you "haven't
    a clue" who I am, stick to it!
[12:49] Ram
    Hmph.
[12:52] Ram
    Emilia-sama, I welcome you.
[12:56] Ram
    Roswaal-sama is waiting inside.
[12:58] ---
    Allow me to show you the way.
[13:00] Ram
    Garf, take the ground dragon and
    carriage somewhere suitable.
[13:03] Garfiel
    Is that any way to treat me?
[13:06] Garfiel
    That's just how I like it, though.
[13:08] Garfiel
    Yo, cabbie, follow me.
[13:09] Otto
    Are you referring to me?!
[13:11] Otto
    That's the worst name you've called me yet!
[13:13] ---
    Also, I have to be alone with you?!
[13:14] Subaru
    I'll pick up what's left of you.
[13:16] Otto
    Why am I being treated so roughly?!
[13:18] Subaru
    What're you talking about?
[13:20] Subaru
    When I was unconscious,
[13:22] Subaru
    Emilia only stayed safe because you were there.
[13:25] Subaru
    I'm grateful.
[13:27] Otto
    O-Oh?
[13:29] Otto
    W-Well, as long as you're appreciative...
[13:33] Otto
    Right!
[13:34] Subaru
    He's too easy.
[13:38] Ram
    What?
[13:40] Subaru
    Oh, just... wondering how you were doing.
[13:43] Subaru
    You remember what was going
    on the last time I saw you.
[13:46] Subaru
    I couldn't get in touch with you after that,
[13:48] Subaru
    and to be honest, I was really worried.
[13:51] Ram
    As you can see, I am as
    lovely and healthy as ever.
[13:55] Ram
    The villagers of Arlam are all safe, too.
[13:58] Ram
    You can be at ease.
[14:00] Subaru
    I see...
[14:01] Subaru
    Yeah, that's... a real relief.
[14:05] Subaru
    A real relief.
[14:11] Subaru
    U-Um, listen...
[14:15] Emilia
    Hey, Ram...
[14:17] Emilia
    This really isn't a place
    to stand around and talk.
[14:20] Emilia
    Would you show us inside?
[14:21] Ram
    Certainly.
[14:28] Emilia
    Subaru, are you all right?
[14:30] Subaru
    Yeah.
[14:31] Emilia
    I'm sorry for interrupting you, but...
[14:35] Subaru
    No, I get it.
[14:37] Subaru
    I just freaked out a little.
[14:39] Subaru
    For her to not even ask about Rem
    when all this is going on...
[14:43] Subaru
    I'm pathetic, huh?
[14:48] Emilia
    It's only natural to be scared.
[14:51] Emilia
    I'll never think that's pathetic.
[14:55] Emilia
    Let's go.
[14:56] Emilia
    We'll fix what happened to Rem,
    and everything else, too.
[15:01] Subaru
    Got it.
[15:04] Subaru
    No matter what happens,
[15:05] ---
    I'll be your meat shield and keep you safe.
[15:10] Roswaal
    Ah, Emilia-sama and Subaru-kun.
[15:14] Roswaal
    It feels like it's been so very
    long since I last saw you.
[15:18] Subaru
    I was going to slug you when
    I saw you again, but now...
[15:21] Subaru
    What the heck happened?
[15:22] Emilia
    What could have hurt you so badly?
[15:25] Roswaal
    Well, now, where shall I begin?
[15:28] Subaru
    Hey, before that, just one thing...
[15:30] Subaru
    The alliance with Crusch-san is on.
[15:33] Subaru
    Now are you satisfied with the
    results you got from abandoning me?
[15:36] Roswaal
    Yes, most satisfied.
[15:39] Roswaal
    Truly, truly,
[15:41] Roswaal
    you were the once-in-a-lifetime
    windfall I had long waited for.
[15:44] Subaru
    Oh, really?
[15:46] Emilia
    Roswaal, what is this place?
[15:49] Emilia
    Since we got here... no, since we
    made contact with the barrier...
[15:54] Emilia
    I've had this anxious feeling
    in my chest, and I can't relax.
[15:57] Emilia
    I've heard it called the "Sanctuary,"
[16:00] Emilia
    but it doesn't seem like one to me at all.
[16:03] Emilia
    In fact, it feels more like...
[16:05] Roswaal
    The Witch's Graveyard?
[16:07] Roswaal
    Does it seem to make far
    more sense to call it that?
[16:12] Emilia
    What do you mean?
[16:14] Roswaal
    Exactly what I said, nothing more or less.
[16:16] Roswaal
    This is where the Witch of Greed,
    Echidna, met her end long ago,
[16:22] Roswaal
    and in my mind, it is worth
    calling a "Sanctuary."
[16:27] Subaru
    Echidna...
[16:28] Emilia
    Subaru?
[16:30] Emilia
    Are you all right?
[16:33] Subaru
    Yeah, I'm fine.
[16:35] Subaru
    And why are you overseeing a place
    with that kind of backstory?
[16:39] Roswaal
    It's quite simple.
[16:41] Roswaal
    This land has been overseen by the heads
    of the Mathers family for generations.
[16:45] Emilia
    Then the Mathers family and
    the Witch of Greed have—
[16:48] Roswaal
    Echidna.
[16:50] Emilia
    Huh?
[16:51] Roswaal
    Please, when you speak
    of her, do use her name.
[16:54] Roswaal
    The name "Witch of Greed"
    makes her sound so evil.
[16:58] Roswaal
    That's not very nice, is it?
[17:01] Emilia
    Um, then... The Mathers family and Echidna
    have been acquainted for a long time,
[17:06] Emilia
    and that's why they've always
    overseen this place?
[17:09] Roswaal
    Yes, though to say we "oversee"
    it is a bit of an exaggeration.
[17:13] Roswaal
    Echidna's barrier prevents entry
[17:15] Roswaal
    by outsiders who fail to follow
    the forest's proper procedure.
[17:18] Roswaal
    In addition, the barrier has
    certain effects on those
[17:22] Roswaal
    whose blood meets certain conditions.
[17:25] Roswaal
    Did you not experience this
    yourself, Emilia-sama?
[17:30] Subaru
    And how did you end up in such a sorry state?
[17:36] Ram
    Did you not find it at all strange, Emilia-sama?
[17:40] Emilia
    Huh?
[17:41] Ram
    That all the people who fled to the Sanctuary,
[17:43] Ram
    as well as Roswaal-sama
    and myself, stayed here
[17:46] Ram
    and didn't return to the mansion?
[17:49] Emilia
    Well...
[17:50] Subaru
    I mean, you stayed here
    because you're hurt, right?
[17:54] Roswaal
    We are all being held under house
    arrest here in the Sanctuary.
[18:00] Subaru
    Huh?!
[18:01] Roswaal
    Myself, Ram, and the people of Arlam...
[18:05] Roswaal
    Oh, and you two as well, from the
     moment you entered here.
[18:10] Garfiel
    The hell? You guys are still
    flappin' your gums in here?
[18:13] Emilia
    House arrest... Then are Roswaal's injuries...
[18:16] Garfiel
    Nope. He got hurt 'cause he
    was rejected by the trial.
[18:20] Subaru
    Trial?
[18:21] Emilia
    What does that mean?
[18:23] Garfiel
    You've seen what happens when you come
    in contact with the barrier, right?
[18:28] Garfiel
    Mixed-bloods who go through
    that and still come in here
[18:31] Garfiel
    are never allowed to leave.
[18:35] Subaru
    Does that mean Emilia, too?
[18:38] Garfiel
    The barrier doesn't mean squat to most people.
[18:40] Garfiel
    Doesn't that seem a little unfair, Emilia-sama?
[18:45] Garfiel
    The only way to break the barrier is
    to go through the graveyard's trial,
[18:48] Garfiel
    but if anyone who isn't a
    mixed-blood tries it...
[18:54] Garfiel
    All the villagers are rounded up in one place.
[18:57] Garfiel
    So long as they don't act up, we won't hurt 'em.
[19:00] Garfiel
    They even get three meals
    and a nap every day!
[19:03] Garfiel
    This is our demand.
[19:05] Garfiel
    Break the barrier surrounding
    this Sanctuary.
[19:08] Garfiel
    The only one allowed to undergo
    the trial to do that is you.
[19:10] Garfiel
    If you can't break it, we won't
    let any of the villagers leave.
[19:14] Garfiel
    Of course, you can't leave
    here yourself, either!
[19:29] Guy
    Subaru-sama!
[19:31] Guy
    Thank goodness you're safe!
[19:32] Subaru
    I'm glad you're all okay.
[19:34] Guy
    Are the others all right?
[19:36] Lady
    Is the lord recovering from his injuries?
[19:38] Lady
    We heard he got hurt trying to help us.
[19:39] Old
    We're truly relieved!
[19:41] Subaru
    Okay, everyone, listen up.
[19:43] Subaru
    As you know, we got rid of the bad
    guy who attacked the village.
[19:50] Subaru
    The other group that evacuated
[19:52] Subaru
    is back at the village, waiting for
     all of you to come home.
[19:57] Subaru
    I guess you've all been informed that
    it's not easy to get out of here.
[20:01] Subaru
    But don't worry!
[20:03] Subaru
    We've got someone who's going to undergo
    the trial to set you all free!
[20:08] Guy
    You mean...
[20:09] Lady
    You're going to do it?
[20:10] Subaru
    No, if I could do it, I'd be
    more than happy to, but...
[20:24] Subaru
    I think you all know who this is.
[20:26] Subaru
    It's Emilia, the royal selection candidate.
[20:28] Subaru
    She'll be undergoing the trial.
[20:32] Emilia
    I-I'm sorry you had to wait so long.
[20:35] Emilia
    In the place of your domain lord,
    Roswaal L. Mathers,
[20:38] Emilia
    I will undergo the trial.
[20:40] Emilia
    I would appreciate your support!
[20:46] Head
    Let me ask you just one thing.
[20:49] Guy
    Chief...
[20:50] Head
    Why do this?
[20:52] Head
    You bowed your head to us the
    last time you saw us, too,
[20:57] Head
    but we were the ones who turned you away.
[21:03] Head
    If it's because you want us to
    back you in the royal selection,
[21:08] Head
    that's just fine, so long
    as you come out and say so.
[21:13] Head
    But if you have some other reason,
[21:16] Head
    we would like to know...
[21:19] Head
    that you are not a witch who
    is beyond our comprehension.
[21:34] Emilia
    I don't have the confidence to give
    you a respectable answer right now.
[21:40] Emilia
    I don't have any strong, convincing
    words that would satisfy all of you.
[21:46] Emilia
    But...
[21:47] Emilia
    Though it wasn't for very long,
    I spent a few days with your families,
[21:51] Emilia
    the ones who aren't here now.
[21:53] Emilia
    And it made me realize...
[21:56] Emilia
    that families should be together.
[22:01] Emilia
    I want to return all of you to your families.
[22:05] Emilia
    I didn't promise them that I'd do so...
[22:08] Emilia
    But I promised myself.
[22:12] Emilia
    That's my only reason.
[22:16] Emilia
    I wasn't really thinking about
    earning your support or anything.
[22:21] Emilia
    But if possible, I'd like to...
[22:24] ---
    um...
[22:26] Emilia
    be friends with you all.
[22:28] Emilia
    That's what I want.
[22:33] Head
    Emilia-sama...
[22:34] Emilia
    Y-Yes?
[22:36] Head
    I realize this will sound like we
    only care about what benefits us,
[22:40] Head
    but...
[22:44] Head
    I pray you will accept our friendship.
[22:49] Emilia
    P-Please, I should ask the same!
[22:51] Emilia
    I know I'm not worthy,
[22:52] Emilia
    but please accept my friendship!
[22:54] Subaru
    "I'm not worthy"? Who says
    that in this day and age?
[23:00] Ram
    Emilia-sama...
[23:02] Ram
    seems to have changed a bit.
[23:06] Ram
    Is it because of something you said to her?
[23:09] Subaru
    It's the result of her thinking
    things through on her own.
[23:11] Subaru
    You shouldn't assume all her
    decisions come from someone else.
[23:16] Ram
    You're right.
[23:18] Ram
    I was in the wrong this time.
[23:31] Subaru
    Did you get enough support
    from the lesser spirits?
[23:35] Emilia
    Yeah. Everything's fine.
[23:37] Emilia
    Still, I think I'd like one last cheer.
[23:40] Subaru
    Can I do it?
[23:42] Emilia
    I want you to.
[23:44] ---
    Please.
[23:45] Subaru
    You can do it! Don't give up! EMC!
[23:47] Subaru
    Emilia-tan, major challenger!
[23:51] Emilia
    Thank you.
[24:04] Garfiel
    That means she's been approved as a
    qualified challenger in the trial.
[24:09] Emilia
    I'm going now.
[24:14] Subaru
    I get that it sucks being trapped here.
[24:17] Subaru
    But why didn't you do this yourself?
[24:21] Garfiel
    If I could, I would, damn it.
[24:28] Subaru
    H-Hey, is she gonna be okay?
[24:31] Garfiel
    The light's not supposed to go out
    as long as the trial's going on...
[24:34] Subaru
    Emilia!
[24:35] Ram
    Barusu!
[24:40] Ram
    Why...
[24:41] Subaru
    I don't understand, but if I can get
    in there, that's good enough for me!
[24:44] Subaru
    Just stay there! I'll yell if I need you!
[24:55] Subaru
    Emilia!
[24:57] Subaru
    First, you need to face your own past.
[25:14] Kenichi
    Good morning, son of mine!
[25:17] Kenichi
    Hey, c'mon! What? What? What's wrong?
[25:20] Kenichi
    You look as if you just saw your own
    dad naked first thing in the morning!
