[00:24] Subaru
    She turned out that way
    because I wasn't with her.
[00:28] Subaru
    And I was going on about how
    I didn't want her to look sad...
[00:33] Subaru
    Emilia, are you okay?
[00:41] Subaru
    I'll save Emilia...
[00:42] Subaru
    and the Sanctuary, and the mansion, too.
[00:45] Subaru
    I'll save every last one of them,
[00:49] Subaru
    if it costs me my life.
[00:55] Ram
    Are you feeling all right?
[00:58] Emilia
    Yes... because Subaru was
    there for me, I think.
[01:01] Subaru
    The biggest problem is Roswaal.
[01:04] Subaru
    He knew that I've been looping,
[01:07] Subaru
    even if he didn't know that
    I have to die to do it.
[01:10] Subaru
    He's obviously following the Tome of Wisdom.
[01:14] Subaru
    He won't condone anything that
    goes against what's written,
[01:16] Subaru
    and if it does, he won't balk
    at using my loops to redo it.
[01:21] Subaru
    What's forcing him to do all that?
[01:26] Subaru
    I...
[01:27] Roswaal
    By doing that...
[01:28] Roswaal
    you can become like me.
[01:37] Subaru
    ...won't ever be like you.
[01:39] Subaru
    Not ever.
[01:41] Subaru
    So... is it okay if I turn to you again?
[01:46] Subaru
    There are so many things I want to find
    out and get you to agonize over with me.
[01:52] Subaru
    Invite me, Echidna!
[01:56] Subaru
    I'll give you my life as many
    times as you want it!
[01:58] Subaru
    Or my pride or anything else!
[02:01] Subaru
    So please, Echidna!
[02:03] Subaru
    Let me...
[02:15] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[02:18] Subaru
    Huh?
[02:21] Emilia
    ...iar.
[02:23] Emilia
    Liar.
[02:24] Emilia
    Liar! Liar! Liar!
[02:27] Emilia
    Liar! Liar! Subaru, you liar!
[02:28] Subaru
    What... is this?
[02:30] Wilhelm
    Emilia-sama!
[02:31] Emilia
    You liar!
[02:33] Emilia
    Subaru... Subaru... You liar...
[02:36] Wilhelm
    Felis! Come here at once!
    This is urgent! Hurry!
[02:37] Emilia
    You said... we'd be together...
[02:40] Subaru
    I don't recognize this...
[02:42] Subaru
    I don't recognize this scenario.
[02:44] Felis
    Old Man Wil!
[02:45] Subaru
    How could I recognize it?
[02:45] Wilhelm
    His throat's been stabbed!
    We haven't a moment to lose!
[02:51] Subaru
    Stop... It's no use. He's already dead.
[02:55] Wilhelm
    I won't let you die!
[02:56] Wilhelm
    I won't let the one who
    saved me die in this way!
[03:00] Felis
    Why did this have to happen now?
[03:02] Felis
    Stop joking! Stop fooling around with us!
[03:05] Subaru
    Stop it... Stop it! Stop it!
    Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
[03:09] Felis
    It's too late. His soul is already gone.
[03:13] Wilhelm
    Why? Why?!
[03:15] Wilhelm
    Why did you die so easily?
[03:18] Wilhelm
    Subaru-dono, you are...
[03:18] Felis
    Weakling. Coward.
[03:21] Felis
    You're leaving behind everyone you cared about,
[03:23] Felis
    forcing all of the pain and suffering on us.
[03:29] Emilia
    You said...
[03:31] Emilia
    You said... that you loved me.
[03:43] Subaru
    Was that...
[03:52] Subaru
    ...how that world looked after I died?
[03:56] Subaru
    Or was it the trial? Not really my past,
     but the second trial?
[04:01] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[04:14] Emilia
    Subaru?
[04:16] Julius
    Emilia-sama, please...
[04:18] Julius
    Wipe Subaru's face for him.
[04:25] Emilia
    Why?
[04:27] Emilia
    Why does Subaru look like this?
[04:30] Emilia
    Why did this have to happen to him?
[04:34] Emilia
    To save me?
[04:37] Emilia
    Why? Please tell me.
[04:40] Julius
    I wanted to speak with
    you more, Natsuki Subaru.
[04:50] Julius
    I wanted to call you a friend.
[05:01] Subaru
    Stop... it...
[05:04] Subaru
    Please...
[05:05] Subaru
    Stop it!
[05:10] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[05:17] Ram
    After all that nonsense you kept spouting...
[05:27] Ram
    Was this all part of your
    plan as well, Beatrice-sama?
[05:32] Beatrice
    Why?
[05:35] Beatrice
    I knew you couldn't be "that person."
[05:40] Beatrice
    But still...
[05:45] Ram
    This is what you call "love"? Honestly...
[05:49] Ram
    There's no help for you.
[05:51] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[05:56] Puck
    So it is you.
[06:04] Reinhard
    Emilia-sama and Subaru are
    both gone now, aren't they?
[06:09] Puck
    Lia is asleep. Forever.
[06:13] Puck
    I don't want to exist in a world without her.
[06:16] Puck
    Therefore, per our contract,
    I will freeze this world solid.
[06:22] Puck
    He and I are equally guilty.
[06:25] Reinhard
    And that is why you're trying
    to destroy the world?
[06:30] Reinhard
    I am going to stop you from
    causing any further harm.
[06:34] Reinhard
    If you must resent someone, please resent me.
[06:37] Puck
    I don't resent anyone, Reinhard.
[06:40] Puck
    You are a true hero.
[06:43] Puck
    And a hero is all you can be.
[06:55] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:00] Elsa
    And that's the end of it.
[07:03] Elsa
    This wasn't a very rewarding job at all.
[07:07] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:10] Rem
    I only prevented the situation from worsening.
[07:12] Rem
    I could tell that Subaru-kun
    was already beyond help.
[07:16] Rem
    Surely he wanted me to end
    it as quickly as possible.
[07:16] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:19] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:21] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:24] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:26] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:28] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:29] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:31] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:33] SubaruVO
    Behold an unthinkable present.
[07:43] Rem
    Can you no longer stand, Subaru-kun?
[07:55] Subaru
    This can't be real.
[07:56] Rem
    It is real.
[07:58] Rem
    I will be by your side whenever
    you wish it, Subaru-kun.
[08:03] Subaru
    Rem...
[08:04] Rem
    Yes. I am your Rem.
[08:13] Subaru
    Rem...
[08:14] Rem
    Yes, I am Rem.
[08:16] Rem
    Your very own, all-purpose,
    ever-useful maid.
[08:21] Subaru
    You...
[08:22] Rem
    Are you all right? Are you tired?
[08:27] Subaru
    I don't know...
[08:29] Subaru
    Maybe I am tired.
[08:32] Subaru
    But I haven't even done anything yet...
[08:36] Subaru
    If I were stronger, smarter,
    and capable of a lot more,
[08:42] Subaru
    they wouldn't have had to
    hurt and suffer so much.
[08:47] Rem
    Subaru-kun...
[08:49] Subaru
    If the world was still going on after I died,
[08:52] Subaru
    how many times did I just
    leave them all to die?
[08:56] Rem
    Subaru-kun...
[08:57] Subaru
    How many times did I let you die?
[09:01] Subaru
    How many times do I have to kill you?!
[09:04] Rem
    Subaru-kun.
[09:08] Rem
    It's all right.
[09:10] Subaru
    Rem...
[09:11] Rem
    I love you.
[09:14] Rem
    I love you, Subaru-kun.
[09:17] Rem
    So everything will be all right.
[09:20] Subaru
    Th-That doesn't... answer anything...
[09:23] Rem
    It does.
[09:25] Rem
    Holding you the way I am right now
[09:29] Rem
    is the answer to everything.
[09:32] Rem
    You've been through so much, Subaru-kun.
[09:35] Rem
    You suffered so much pain all alone...
[09:37] Rem
    But you don't need to feel
    so sad all the time anymore.
[09:43] Subaru
    I...
[09:45] Rem
    I will take the place of
    everything you're feeling.
[09:48] Rem
    Just entrust everything to me,
[09:52] Rem
    and just rest for now.
[09:54] Rem
    All you need to do is sleep.
[10:04] Subaru
    Rem...
[10:06] Rem
    It's easy to give up.
[10:08] Rem
    But it doesn't suit you.
[10:13] Subaru
    Who are you?
[10:15] Rem
    Huh?
[10:16] Subaru
    I'm asking you who you are.
[10:19] Rem
    S-Subaru-kun, what are you—
[10:21] Subaru
    I knew that when I was at the end of my rope,
[10:24] Subaru
    clutching my knees and wallowing in anguish,
[10:28] Subaru
    you would come and stay gently by my side.
[10:32] Subaru
    You'd listen to my troubles,
    let me vent my insecurities,
[10:36] Subaru
    and wring everything out of
    me until my tears ran dry...
[10:40] Subaru
    And then you'd say, "Now, stand up."
[10:45] Subaru
    You wouldn't tell me to just rest.
[10:48] Subaru
    You wouldn't tell me to give up
    and entrust everything to you.
[10:51] Subaru
    You like me and I like you,
[10:54] Subaru
    you're good to me and you love me,
[10:56] Subaru
    but you're also stricter
    with me than anyone else.
[10:59] Subaru
    Rem is the one girl who doesn't go easy on me!
[11:02] Rem
    You're wrong! Please listen
    to me, Subaru-kun!
[11:05] Rem
    I just don't want to see you suffering so—
[11:06] Subaru
    I'll show you my weakness and my fragility.
[11:10] Subaru
    But I'll never let you see me give up!
[11:13] Rem
    Because you are my hero, Subaru-kun!
[11:16] Subaru
    Get out of here, you fraud!
[11:18] Subaru
    Don't you dare coddle me
    with Rem's face and voice!
[11:25] Rem
    Th-This isn't... what I...
    was told... t-to expect...
[11:32] Subaru
    Huh?
[11:42] Subaru
    And who are you?
[11:44] Carmilla
    I-I'm Carmilla, th-the Witch of Lust.
[11:48] Carmilla
    N-Nice to meet... you...
[11:50] Subaru
    Is this weird place part of Echidna's dream?
[11:55] Subaru
    What were you trying to pull earlier?!
[11:57] Carmilla
    Earlier?
[11:59] Subaru
    I'm talking about you coming
    to me disguised as Rem!
[12:02] Subaru
    Was that your power?!
[12:04] Carmilla
    N-No!
[12:05] Carmilla
    I-If I looked like s-someone else,
[12:09] Carmilla
    it's because... y-you wanted
    to see me that way...
[12:13] Subaru
    What?!
[12:14] Carmilla
    I-I didn't w-want to, but Echidna-chan said
[12:18] Carmilla
    a-all I had to do was dote on you...
[12:20] Subaru
    So Echidna is the one behind all this?!
[12:22] Echidna
    Going any further will endanger your life.
[12:32] Echidna
    Carmilla's "Faceless Bride"
[12:35] Echidna
    makes one forget to breathe
    when in her presence.
[12:38] Echidna
    In the end, it even makes
    your heart stop beating.
[12:42] Subaru
    What the hell have you been plotting, Echidna?
[12:46] Echidna
    Isn't that obvious?
[12:48] Echidna
    An evil scheme, of course. I am a witch.
[12:51] Subaru
    Why did you do something like that?
[12:53] Echidna
    Because it was the most
    effective method, that's why.
[12:57] Echidna
    If I'd left things alone,
[12:59] Echidna
    your mind would've worn away
    to nothing in the trial.
[13:03] Subaru
    So you're telling me you did that to save me?
[13:07] Echidna
    I can't make any excuses for the fact
    that I wounded your heart as a result.
[13:11] Echidna
    I've resigned myself to accepting your rage.
[13:22] Echidna
    I know what it is you want to know
    more than anything right now.
[13:26] Echidna
    Allow me to explain the trial.
[13:29] Echidna
    Just like the first one,
[13:31] Echidna
    the second trial puts you in a world
    recreated from your memories.
[13:36] Echidna
    It's a thoroughly
    well-constructed unreality.
[13:40] Subaru
    Then—
[13:41] Echidna
    However...
[13:42] Echidna
    Your Return by Death is the
    Witch of Envy's Authority.
[13:46] Echidna
    Basically, only she knows
    whether the things you saw
[13:50] Echidna
    in your second trial happened in some reality.
[13:53] Subaru
    You mean all that stuff might
    have actually happened?
[13:58] Echidna
    I'm only saying it's a possibility.
[14:01] Echidna
    Instead of counting the many people
    you may have failed to save,
[14:04] Echidna
    you should focus on counting
    the many you have saved.
[14:07] Subaru
    Idealistic clichés like that don't help!
[14:09] Echidna
    I know that you have given
    all of your strength,
[14:13] Echidna
    physical and mental, to survive thus far.
[14:17] Echidna
    Not a single thing you've experienced on
    your way to this point has been a waste.
[14:23] Echidna
    You have arrived at this moment by
    doing everything in your power,
[14:26] Echidna
    at the risk of your own life.
[14:29] Echidna
    That's something you should be proud of.
[14:33] Subaru
    Why do you keep trying to help me like this?
[14:40] Echidna
    I think it's a little mean to force
    a girl to spell that out for you.
[14:49] Echidna
    Would you be willing to form a
    contract with me, Natsuki Subaru?
[14:55] Subaru
    A contract?
[14:57] Echidna
    Yes, a formal contract with the Witch of Greed.
[15:01] Echidna
    Would you enter into one with me?
[15:04] Subaru
    What happens if I do?
[15:07] Echidna
    It's very simple.
[15:09] Echidna
    From now on, whenever you run into
    an obstacle you can't overcome,
[15:13] Echidna
    when you feel you're being crushed
    by the weight of your sins,
[15:15] Echidna
    I will give you my support.
[15:18] Echdina
    I'm confident in the amount
    of knowledge I have.
[15:20] Echidna
    I should be able to come up with a way
    for you to deal with any problem.
[15:23] Echidna
    Above all, I can share in your
    Return by Death ability.
[15:28] Subaru
    What does that mean?
[15:30] Subaru
    You're actually telling me the selling
    points of making a contract with you?
[15:33] Echidna
    I think it only makes sense to
    explain the merits of such an act.
[15:37] Echidna
    All the better for me if it makes you
    lean toward agreeing to it at all.
[15:41] Echidna
    It's all calculated.
[15:51] Subaru
    That might not be such a bad idea.
[15:54] Echidna
    Meaning?!
[15:57] Echidna
    I mean, uh... right.
[16:00] Echidna
    If you absolutely insist, I wouldn't
    mind entering into a contract—
[16:03] Subaru
    It's a little late to try and play it cool now!
[16:06] Subaru
    Anyway, how would we form this contract?
[16:09] Echidna
    To establish a formal contract,
[16:12] Echidna
    you and I need to form
    a bond between our souls.
[16:16] Echidna
    First, we raise our palms
    to each other, like this.
[16:29] Subaru
    Wh-Wha?!
[16:34] Minerva
    I'm gonna have to...
[16:37] Minerva
    put a stop to that contract.
[16:40] Subaru
    The Witch of Wrath?!
[16:42] Minerva
    I won't accept it!
[16:44] Echidna
    So you're after him, too?
[16:46] Echidna
    I suppose you're jealous.
[16:48] Minerva
    Stop teasing me!
[16:50] Minvera
    I'm outraged! I'm indignant!
[16:53] Minerva
    I'm absolutely boiling with anger!
[16:56] Subaru
    How is she even here?
[16:58] Subaru
    Don't you have to swap places with the
    other witches to let them appear?
[17:02] Minerva
    That's a lie!
[17:04] Minerva
    She's a bad-natured jerk who plays
    mean tricks like that for no reason!
[17:09] Echidna
    Well, I didn't want to just keep
    popping witches into existence,
[17:12] Echidna
    and let one of them take you from me.
[17:15] Minerva
    Stop being taken in so easily by
    all of Echidna's smooth-talking!
[17:19] Minerva
    It pisses me off!
[17:20] Minerva
    Also, she hasn't even told you
    what parts of that contract...
[17:23] Minerva
    would be...
[17:24] Minerva
    bad...
[17:25] Minerva
    for you!
[17:26] Subaru
    H-Hang on! "Bad" for me?!
[17:29] Echidna
    She's talking about your payment
    for contracting with me.
[17:32] Echidna
    I think calling it a bad thing is
    a bit of an exaggeration, though.
[17:36] Subaru
    What is it you want from me, then?
[17:39] Subaru
    What payment do I have to give?
[17:41] Echidna
    It's very simple.
[17:43] Echidna
    Everything you feel, everything you think,
[17:47] Echidna
    everything that remains in your heart,
[17:49] Echdina
    the future as you know it,
[17:51] Echidna
    anything you accomplish,
[17:52] Echidna
    all the potential within you,
[17:55] Echidna
    all the fruit of the unknown that
    is borne from your very existence...
[18:00] Echidna
    I want a taste of it.
[18:05] Carmilla
    Th-That's all true...
[18:08] Carmilla
    B-But don't assume that she
    just t-told you everything...
[18:12] Subaru
    The Witch of Lust?
[18:13] Carmilla
    E-Echidna-chan... isn't lying...
[18:18] Carmilla
    But there's a lot... she's hiding from you.
[18:21] Echidna
    Don't bother listening to
    these two, Natsuki Subaru.
[18:26] Echidna
    Once you have formed a contract with me,
[18:29] Echidna
    I will, without fail, guide you
     to the future you desire.
[18:34] Sekhmet
    This wouldn't be the promise you always
    precede with "In the end..." would it?
[18:39] Subaru
    And who are you?!
[18:41] Sekhmet
    The Witch of Sloth, Sekhmet.
[18:45] Sekhmet
    Just letting you know my name,
    for the record and all.
[18:49] Subaru
    You're the sixth...
[18:51] Sekhmet
    I'm only here as a watchdog to
    preserve the fairness of this place.
[18:57] Sekhmet
    But I will fulfill my obligation to her.
[19:01] Typhon
    Oh, Baru, you're here?
[19:03] Typhon
    Is everyone here now? That's unusual!
[19:07] Daphne
    It's been a long time since we had a tea party.
[19:10] Daphne
    You should have invited me, too.
[19:12] Subaru
    Why do you guys keep appearing
    one after another?!
[19:15] Subaru
    What do you want from me?!
[19:16] Sekhmet
    I believe I told you already.
[19:19] Sekhmet
    It's the promise that's always
    preceded by "In the end..."
[19:25] Subaru
    "In the end"?
[19:30] Subaru
    Echidna, you said you'd guide me to
    the best possible future, didn't you?
[19:37] Echidna
    Yes, I did. It was true.
[19:40] Subaru
    And with your help, would I arrive
    at the best possible future
[19:44] Subaru
    by following the best possible path?
[19:50] Subaru
    Why aren't you saying anything?
[19:52] Subaru
    Answer me, Echidna!
[19:56] Subaru
    Answer me, Witch of Greed!
[20:02] Echidna
    For the purpose of attaining
    the future you desire,
[20:05] Echidna
    you must accept any sacrifices
    made along the way.
[20:08] Echidna
    Is that not the resolution
    you made, Natsuki Subaru?
[20:13] Subaru
    Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
[20:15] Echidna
    No, I will not wait.
[20:17] Echidna
    You are the one who needs
    to understand better.
[20:19] Echidna
    Just think about it!
[20:21] Echidna
    The Return by Death Authority you
    possess is a tremendous thing.
[20:25] Echidna
    You do not fully understand
    how truly useful it is.
[20:28] Echidna
    It allows you to restart the world all you
    want until you reach your desired future.
[20:32] Echidna
    It's the embodiment of the ultimate
    ideal any seeker could wish for!
[20:36] Echidna
    Of course, I won't force
    you to Return by Death.
[20:39] Echidna
    You will use it to achieve
    the result you desire,
[20:43] Echidna
    and I will lend you all the wisdom
    you need to fulfill your wish.
[20:47] Echidna
    I expect all the results that
    come about in the process
[20:50] Echidna
    to contribute vastly to the
    satisfaction of my curiosity!
[20:55] Echidna
    We will agonize over, struggle with,
    and solve the same problems together.
[20:59] Echidna
    We will have the optimal
    relationship to achieve that!
[21:02] Echidna
    As I make use of your power,
[21:04] Echidna
    I want you to use me to achieve your
    best possible future, too.
[21:08] Echidna
    My maidenly heart's affection for you
    and desire to help you are real.
[21:13] Echidna
    I'd be more than content to have
    you treat me as a convenience.
[21:16] Echidna
    If it's what you want, you're welcome
    to use my body for your comfort!
[21:20] Echidna
    I gladly offer it to you!
[21:22] Echidna
    I will give you the strength to
    move forward with my words.
[21:26] Echidna
    Whether you want comfort,
    motivation, or love,
[21:28] Echidna
    or even hatred, I will give it
    all to you. I can give it all!
[21:33] Echidna
    You like girls who give you
    everything, don't you?
[21:35] Echidna
    You need me!
[21:37] Echidna
    No one but you can satisfy
    my curiosity now.
[21:40] Echidna
    If you use your power to save someone,
[21:43] Echidna
    I want you to save me.
[21:44] Echidna
    I cannot control my own greed!
[21:48] Echidna
    No matter what happens, I will guide
    you to the future you desire.
[21:52] Echidna
    I swear it! I absolutely swear it!
[21:54] Echidna
    And the Sanctuary's liberation
    lies beyond that.
[21:57] Echidna
    You can save everyone trapped there—the one
     you love and all those you care about!
[22:02] Echidna
    For that purpose, I want
    you to take me, use me,
[22:05] Echidna
    and rob me of all the greed you want,
[22:07] Echidna
    so we can take hold of our future!
[22:08] Echidna
    That is all I want from you,
    all I desire from you,
[22:10] ---
    and all I offer in return.
[22:13] Echidna
    I have now told you everything... truly,
    every last detail, with passion.
[22:19] Echidna
    This might be close to love.
     It's a vow of love!
[22:22] Echidna
    And how will you respond to my love?
[22:24] Echidna
    I want your answer!
[22:26] Echidna
    That is one of the answers that will
    satisfy my curiosity, after all.
[22:36] Subaru
    Echidna...
[22:37] Echidna
    Yes?
[22:38] Subaru
    You're going to use me?
[22:41] Echidna
    I am.
[22:42] Echidna
    And you can do the same to me.
[22:44] Echidna
    That's what this contract is for.
[22:46] Echidna
    If you want to criticize
    me for using it as a means
[22:49] Echidna
    to keep you as my own, I'll accept that.
[22:52] Echidna
    It's the truth, after all.
[22:54] Subaru
    It's not as if I never considered
[22:57] Subaru
    that your intentions might not be 100% good.
[23:01] Subaru
    But... that's just way beyond the pale!
[23:09] Echidna
    I don't quite understand what
    you find so problematic.
[23:13] Subaru
    Everything about your attitude
    is so infantile and shallow!
[23:17] Subaru
    It's all completely superficial!
[23:19] Subaru
    When you laugh, even when
    you're mad, your attitude is...
[23:24] Subaru
    Echidna, you're incapable of
    understanding how anyone else feels!
[23:30] Subaru
    This is one of those times
    when you could get angry...
[23:35] Echidna
    I see. You have taught me much.
[23:38] Echidna
    When we next have a chance...
[23:41] Echidna
    I will do just that.
[23:46] Echidna
    But first, why not have a seat?
[23:48] Echidna
    I'd like to discuss our contract a bit more.
[23:52] Subaru
    I just remembered...
[23:53] Subaru
    There was one thing I wanted to
    ask you when I saw you again.
[23:57] Echidna
    Oh? What might that be?
[23:59] Subaru
    Once I hear your answer, I think
    I'll be able to make a choice.
[24:05] Subaru
    You know Beatrice, don't you?
[24:07] Echidna
    Yes, I do.
[24:08] Echidna
    I was deeply involved in her birth, after all.
[24:12] Subaru
    Beatrice has lived her life under a contract
[24:14] Subaru
    forcing her to wait for "that person."
[24:17] Subaru
    I believe that contract was with you.
[24:20] Echidna
    True. I'm the one who ordered her to protect
[24:22] Echidna
    the forbidden library and await
    the one who would come for her.
[24:26] Subaru
    Then who is "that person"?
[24:28] Subaru
    How can I set her free?
[24:37] Echidna
    Good question! Whoever could it be?
[24:41] Subaru
    What?!
[24:43] Subaru
    You... You're saying you don't even
    know who Beatrice is waiting for?!
[24:48] Echidna
    I really don't know.
[24:50] Subaru
    But why?
[24:51] Subaru
    Weren't you the one who told
    her to wait for them?!
[24:54] Echidna
    You've made quite a misunderstanding.
[24:57] Echidna
    I didn't force Beatrice to make that promise
[25:00] ---
    so she'd give the forbidden
    library to "that person."
[25:03] Subaru
    What?
[25:04] Echidna
    That wasn't my goal at all.
[25:07] Echidna
    By making her promise to wait for
    "that person" to come to her,
[25:11] Echidna
    I want to find out who she will choose
[25:14] Echidna
    to be "that person."
[25:18] Echidna
    Of course, her staying there for 400 years
    without choosing anyone is one result of that.
[25:23] Echidna
    Her inability to choose anyone
    so easily all this time
[25:27] Echidna
    and wanting to die as she agonized over
    whether to keep upholding the contract or not
[25:31] Echidna
    are also results of that.
[25:34] Subaru
    And how do you feel about that?
[25:39] Echidna
    I think it's wonderful.
[25:42] Subaru
    Echidna...
[25:45] Subaru
    You are a witch!
[25:48] Subaru
    You're an unfathomable monster
    beyond all comprehension!
[25:53] Subaru
    And I...
[25:55] Subaru
    I won't take your hand.
[25:58] Subaru
    I know whose hand I want to take.
[26:02] Subaru
    There's a girl who's been
    tied down by the words
[26:05] ---
    you spoke out of pure
    curiosity, without malice.
[26:11] Subaru
    My mind's made up.
[26:13] Subaru
    I'm going to take her hand.
[26:15] Subaru
    I won't go with you.
[26:25] Minerva
    She's here.
[26:26] Carmilla
    N-No!
[26:27] Carmilla
    I have nothing to do with any of this!
[26:29] Sekhmet
    A really troublesome girl just showed up
    at a troubling time to start some trouble.
[26:34] Daphne
    Oh! I'm feeling very, very hungry!
[26:44] Typhon
    Hey! It's Tella!
[26:46] Typhon
    Long time no see!
