**[00:01] Knight**
Lady Elsa!
**[00:05] French**
Lady Elsa!
**[00:08] Müller**
Did you find her?
**[00:09] Maximilan**
I'm afraid not.
**[00:11] Kai**
Nor I.
**[00:16] Müller**
Elsa...

EP 8 Suspicions and Sightseeing
**[01:52] Shizuka**
So humans live in the fairy world, do they?
**[01:55] Shizuka**
I had no idea.
**[01:58] Shizuka**
And that outfit you're wearing...
**[02:01] Shizuka**
It looks a bit too detailed
to be some sort of costume.
**[02:06] Shizuka**
Not to mention the jewelry.
**[02:10] Shizuka**
Could they perhaps be genuine?
**[02:13] Shizuka**
They have a curiously intense luster.
**[02:18] Elsa**
Sasaki, who is this person?
**[02:21] Sasaki**
Er, I'm terribly sorry.
**[02:23] Sasaki**
Could you please give us a few moments alone?
**[02:26] Shizuka**
What's this? Why so uncomfortable?
**[02:30] Shizuka**
I'd *love* to hear what she has to say.
**[02:35] Sasaki**
It's a rather delicate subject, you see...
**[02:40] Shizuka**
Suit yourself.
**[02:41] Sasaki**
I really appreciate it.
**[02:43] Sasaki**
*What am I going to do?*
**[02:44] Sasaki**
*Futari Shizuka knows about Lady Elsa!*
**[02:48] Sasaki**
*I seriously have to watch what I say,*
**[02:51] Sasaki**
* or else she'll learn that all*
* my talk about magical men*
**[02:54] Sasaki**
*and Java sparrow fairies was bull!*
**[02:57] Sasaki**
* I have to find a way to cover up*
* the existence of the other world!*
**[03:00] Sasaki**
*But I can't think up a decent excuse...*
**[03:03] Sasaki**
* On top of that, Hoshizaki-san said*
* this lady's a shrewd operator.*
**[03:07] Sasaki**
* Saying the wrong thing could*
* easily make the bleeding worse!*
**[03:12] Peeps**
Rest easy.
**[03:14] Peeps**
She cannot understand
the language of my world.
**[03:19] Peeps**
As the words you say
are heard by those around you,
**[03:24] Peeps**
they are also filtered, through my magic,
to be understandable by its locals.
**[03:29] Peeps**
However,
**[03:31] Peeps**
what she speaks is heard by the denizens
of this world as an otherworldly language.
**[03:38] Peeps**
The reverse is also true.
They cannot understand each other.
**[03:42] Sasaki**
Oh, I see.
**[03:44] Sasaki**
*An unexpected but welcome development.*
**[03:46] Sasaki**
*The chances of Elsa spilling information*
**[03:49] Sasaki**
* about her world to Futari Shizuka*
* are practically nil this way.*
**[03:55] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa.
**[03:57] Sasaki**
Could you please explain yourself?
**[04:01] Elsa**
Fine.
**[04:06] Sasaki**
You think *we're* behind it?
**[04:09] Elsa**
W-Well, you are, aren't you?!
**[04:12] Elsa**
Marc was imprisoned the day you visited.
**[04:16] Elsa**
And despite all your talk of saving him,
**[04:18] Elsa**
you're just sneaking around,
smuggling gold ingots!
**[04:23] Elsa**
You received that gold as payment
**[04:26] Elsa**
for selling Marc out
to Count Dietrich, didn't you?!
**[04:34] Sasaki**
I understand how it looks that way.
**[04:39] Elsa**
You're saying it's not true, then?
**[04:41] Sasaki**
Yes.
**[04:42] Sasaki**
What I'm doing is necessary
in order to save Marc-san.
**[04:46] Elsa**
H-How, exactly?!
**[04:48] Sasaki**
I earned this gold in the
course of doing business.
**[04:52] Sasaki**
I intend to use it to make a profit
trading with this woman,
**[04:57] Sasaki**
then buy Marc-san back into good standing.
**[05:01] Elsa**
Is that true?
**[05:03] Sasaki**
Yes.
**[05:04] Sasaki**
But I'm afraid your presence here
has cast the deal into doubt.
**[05:14] Sasaki**
Please, Lady Elsa, rest easy.
**[05:17] Sasaki**
I would never betray your father
or abandon Marc-san.
**[05:24] Elsa**
Sasaki, is it all right for me to trust you?
**[05:28] Sasaki**
I swear I speak the truth.
**[05:38] Peeps**
You've shown your true colors, child!
**[05:48] Peeps**
What did you hope to accomplish
by reaching for her?
**[05:53] Shizuka**
What's this now?
**[05:54] Shizuka**
Fairy magic?
**[05:58] Elsa**
S-Sasaki!
**[05:59] Elsa**
What is she trying to do?
**[06:01] Sasaki**
I'd like to know that myself.
**[06:04] Sasaki**
Just what is the meaning of this?
**[06:08] Shizuka**
Please. I merely saw a bug
crawling on her shoulder.
**[06:13] Shizuka**
I was going to brush it off.
**[06:16] Peeps**
I don't mind dispensing with you here and now.
**[06:21] Peeps**
I shall place a curse upon you.
**[06:24] Shizuka**
A curse? What are you on about?
**[06:27] Peeps**
It should force you to show us obedience.
**[06:33] Peeps**
I suggest you take it seriously.
**[06:37] Shizuka**
W-Wait!
**[06:40] Shizuka**
I didn't mean anything by it...
**[06:54] Shizuka**
What have you done to me?
**[06:56] Peeps**
Behold the back of your right hand.
**[07:01] Peeps**
Every time you feel hostility
or malice toward us,
**[07:07] Peeps**
the crest will encroach
further into your flesh.
**[07:10] Peeps**
It has only seized your hand for now,
**[07:12] Peeps**
but it will continue its spread.
**[07:14] Peeps**
Once it encases your entire body,
**[07:17] Peeps**
you'll be reduced to
an unsightly lump of flesh.
**[07:23] Peeps**
Not even the greatest
regenerative powers can save you
**[07:26] Peeps**
from the destruction this curse
will wreak on your body.
**[07:30] Peeps**
If you fear eternal existence with
no faculties outside of your own mind,
**[07:37] Peeps**
I suggest you strive to purge yourself
of negative intentions toward us.
**[07:50] Peeps**
You're a rather decisive one, aren't you?
**[07:55] Shizuka**
I see.
**[07:59] Shizuka**
I thought I could exploit a weakness to get
this midlife magical man into my thrall.
**[08:04] Shizuka**
But it seems you've bested me yet again.
**[08:12] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa.
**[08:14] Sasaki**
As you can see, it's quite dangerous here.
**[08:17] Sasaki**
Please, allow me to return you
to your home at once.
**[08:22] Elsa**
Wait, Sasaki!
**[08:24] Sasaki**
What is it?
**[08:26] Elsa**
There's so much I want to ask you.
**[08:30] Sasaki**
I'll pay you a visit
after I see you home, of course.
**[08:35] Elsa**
I want to know now.
**[08:38] Elsa**
What is this place? Who are you people?
**[08:42] Elsa**
Please, tell me!
**[08:44] Sasaki**
*But what can I say to her?*
**[08:48] Sasaki**
* My standing with her greatly affects*
* my standing with Count Müller.*
**[08:53] Sasaki**
* Ruining your relationship with someone*
* by crossing their family happens all the time.*
**[08:59] Sasaki**
*This is serious business.*
**[09:01] Sasaki**
What can I do to make you trust me?
**[09:07] Sasaki**
Shall we see the sights, then?
**[09:11] Elsa**
The sights?
**[09:26] Elsa**
This "ferry" was surprising enough,
but the buildings are even more so!
**[09:33] Elsa**
Is this really your hometown?
**[09:37] Sasaki**
Well? Do you trust me now?
**[09:42] Elsa**
F-Fine, I trust you.
**[09:46] Elsa**
I mean... I kind of have to, don't I?
**[09:50] Elsa**
There's nothing like this in the Kingdom
of Herz or any of the surrounding lands.
**[09:56] Sasaki**
I appreciate your understanding.
**[10:03] Elsa**
Why did you come to our world, Sasaki?
**[10:07] Sasaki**
What do you mean?
**[10:09] Elsa**
What could someone from a world this
prosperous possibly be seeking in ours?
**[10:18] Sasaki**
That's a good question.
**[10:21] Sasaki**
Harmonious relations
between the two, I suppose.
**[10:27] Sasaki**
*That much is true.*
**[10:29] Sasaki**
* I just left out that I'm also doing it*
* for personal satisfaction and delicious food.*
**[10:35] Elsa**
I see.
**[10:38] Shizuka**
Pardon me. Would you kindly
include me in your little conversation?
**[10:42] Shizuka**
I prepared clothes for the girl
and even rented out this ferry!
**[10:47] Shizuka**
It's a bit cruel to leave me out entirely.
**[10:51] Sasaki**
We're not leaving you out, I promise.
**[10:53] Sasaki**
She was just saying she thinks
your kimono is fabulous.
**[10:58] Shizuka**
Was she? Really?!
**[11:01] Sasaki**
She was complimenting
the beautiful color coordination.
**[11:05] Shizuka**
My, my! I'm tickled you appreciate it.
**[11:09] Shizuka**
But in that case...
**[11:12] Shizuka**
Perhaps I'll pick out
a kimono for her as well.
**[11:16] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa, that structure there is Tokyo Tower.
**[11:22] Shizuka**
Hey!
**[11:30] Elsa**
Squee!
**[11:34] Sasaki**
Squee!
**[11:35] Shizuka**
Hey!
**[12:05] Elsa**
Sasaki! What is this food called?!
**[12:08] Elsa**
It's so sweet and crispy and airy...
**[12:11] Elsa**
I've never tasted anything like it!
**[12:12] Sasaki**
I'm glad to hear you like it.
**[12:17] Elsa**
Y-You should have some now!
**[12:22] Shizuka**
You can't have mine.
**[12:26] Idol**
Hello, everyone!
**[12:28] Idol**
I'm here in the Hamarikyu Gardens!
**[12:32] Idol**
The cosmos are in bloom this time of year...
**[12:35] Sasaki**
*We should probably give that a wide berth.*
**[12:39] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa, we've run into a bit of trouble.
**[12:42] Sasaki**
We should head elsewhere.
**[12:47] Idol**
Look at this pretty visitor!
**[12:49] Idol**
And where are you from?
**[12:52] Sasaki**
This program isn't live, by chance, is it?
**[12:56] Idol**
It is! We're broadcasting live!
**[12:59] Sasaki**
I'm sorry, but could you please
take the camera off us?
**[13:03] Idol**
I-I suppose.
**[13:05] Idol**
So sorry to put you on the spot!
**[13:10] Elsa**
Sasaki, what was that person...
**[13:15] Boy**
Mama! It's TV! People from TV!
**[13:23] Elsa**
Levitation!
**[13:33] Elsa**
Honestly. What a careless child!
**[13:36] Sasaki**
Futari Shizuka-san.
**[13:37] Shizuka**
The work never ends with you, does it?
**[13:42] Shizuka**
It's not nice to film people
without their permission.
**[13:49] Idol**
Y-You—
**[13:59] Elsa**
Hey, Sasaki! What's going on?
**[14:01] Sasaki**
I'll explain everything later, Lady Elsa.
**[14:05] Sasaki**
For now...
**[14:06] Shizuka**
We run!
**[14:09] Shizuka**
Has the Bureau been informed?
**[14:11] Sasaki**
Like the manual says!
**[14:13] Shizuka**
You've really stepped in it, haven't you?
**[14:15] Shizuka**
The Bureau will surely
have their eye on this girl.
**[14:20] Sasaki**
I'd appreciate your help avoiding that!
**[14:22] Shizuka**
I suppose your little curse does
make it impossible for me to refuse.
**[14:28] Sasaki**
Our fates *are* linked, after all.
**[14:30] Sasaki**
In exchange, I'll guarantee your safety.
**[14:33] Shizuka**
Oh? In that case,
I suppose I'll lend you my aid.
**[14:43] Sasaki**
*They got here way too fast.*
**[14:46] Shizuka**
This would suggest
**[14:48] Shizuka**
they've been watching us for a while.
**[14:52] Sasaki**
Let's go.
**[14:55] Akutsu**
I certainly didn't expect to be
meeting with you again so soon.
**[15:01] Shizuka**
I'm just a busy little bee, aren't I?
**[15:05] Shizuka**
I got right down to work.
**[15:10] Akutsu**
Is this the fruit of your labor, then?
**[15:12] Sasaki**
No, this is a psychic that
Futari Shizuka-san knows.
**[15:17] Akutsu**
I was under the impression other countries
**[15:20] Akutsu**
handled psychics not dissimilarly
from the way we do.
**[15:26] Akutsu**
I'd like to speak with you directly, if I may.
**[15:32] Elsa**
Sasaki, I think this man is talking to me.
**[15:38] Elsa**
Oh, that's right.
I'm not supposed to say anything...
**[15:42] Sasaki**
*Yes, that's right.*
**[15:44] Sasaki**
*I'm glad she remembered.*
**[15:46] Akutsu**
What's this, Sasaki-kun?
**[15:49] Sasaki**
I believe she speaks a minority
language as her mother tongue.
**[15:53] Akutsu**
I see.
**[15:54] Sasaki**
I'm sorry, but that's about all I know.
**[15:58] Sasaki**
I'm afraid I'm only accompanying
Futari Shizuka-san,
**[16:03] Sasaki**
and she's only here for her
in the spirit of friendship.
**[16:10] Sasaki**
* In terms of social hierarchy, Chief Akutsu*
* has the overwhelming advantage,*
**[16:16] Sasaki**
*but Futari Shizuka has the physical one.*
**[16:19] Sasaki**
*No matter how powerful his position,*
**[16:22] Sasaki**
* he couldn't escape*
* instant death by her hand.*
**[16:25] Shizuka**
What is it?
**[16:26] Shizuka**
About to offer a job for your
part-time psychic employee?
**[16:29] Akutsu**
I respect your friend's circumstances.
**[16:32] Akutsu**
I won't ask anything further.
**[16:34] Shizuka**
You don't say.
**[16:36] Shizuka**
Well, I am *truly* sorry for all
the trouble I caused you...
**[16:41] Akutsu**
Now, if I may,
**[16:43] Akutsu**
I'd like to ask you something
as a contractor of the Bureau.
**[16:47] Shizuka**
Then speak.
**[16:49] Shizuka**
I'm sure I can see it done.
**[16:51] Akutsu**
I believe that within
your former organization
**[16:54] Akutsu**
is a B-rank psychic capable
of wide-area telekinesis.
**[17:02] Akutsu**
He acted alongside you to intercept
our operation just last week.
**[17:09] Shizuka**
What about him?
**[17:12] Akutsu**
Consider this a request to neutralize him.
**[17:15] Shizuka**
Would that make this a hiring test
you're putting me through?
**[17:21] Akutsu**
If you wish to see it that way.
**[17:24] Sasaki**
*Assassinating a former comrade...*
**[17:26] Sasaki**
*What a terrifying request.*
**[17:29] Akutsu**
I'll send Sasaki-kun with you for support.
**[17:32] Sasaki**
What?
**[17:33] Shizuka**
Oh, I'll feel *so* much better with him there.
**[17:35] Sasaki**
Wait! Hey!
**[17:37] Akutsu**
I won't give you a deadline,
**[17:39] Akutsu**
but I'd prefer it done as soon as possible.
**[17:41] Sasaki**
Excuse me...
**[17:44] Shizuka**
Yes, understood.
**[17:46] Shizuka**
I'll return swiftly
with his head on a platter.
**[18:01] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa?
**[18:02] Elsa**
Sasaki, I want to learn
more about this world!
**[18:06] Sasaki**
But to what end?
**[18:09] Elsa**
I want to learn more and take
that knowledge back to my world!
**[18:14] Elsa**
It's a way I can be useful to my father.
**[18:17] Elsa**
I can contribute to our house
outside of my ability to marry well!
**[18:22] Sasaki**
I'm sorry, but I can't let that happen.
**[18:26] Elsa**
Why not?!
**[18:27] Elsa**
I won't tell anyone about you or this world!
**[18:31] Elsa**
Sheltering one girl can't be
that difficult, can it?!
**[18:35] Sasaki**
No, it would actually be quite difficult.
**[18:38] Sasaki**
Every individual in our country
is given a number,
**[18:42] Sasaki**
and we're all monitored very strictly.
**[18:46] Sasaki**
You don't have one of those numbers.
**[18:48] Sasaki**
And with your obviously foreign appearance,
**[18:52] Sasaki**
if the police were to
approach you for any reason,
**[18:55] Sasaki**
you'd instantly be thrown into prison.
**[19:00] Sasaki**
Should anything become of you,
**[19:03] Sasaki**
I'd never be able to face Count Müller again.
**[19:08] Elsa**
B-But I believe...
**[19:12] Elsa**
If your world were ever to attack ours,
**[19:16] Elsa**
we'd be crushed without so much
as a fighting chance.
**[19:20] Elsa**
Now that I'm aware of that,
**[19:22] Elsa**
I need to do something
for the sake of my world!
**[19:26] Sasaki**
That won't be necessary.
**[19:29] Elsa**
How can you be so sure?
**[19:31] Sasaki**
Ah, well...
**[19:33] Sasaki**
I don't think your world is
as weak as you believe it to be.
**[19:38] Peeps**
I agree with him in that regard.
**[19:41] Peeps**
Most of the weapons in this world
rely on heat and impact,
**[19:47] Peeps**
and their operation
is limited by time and cost.
**[19:51] Peeps**
As long as you erect barriers in advance,
**[19:54] Peeps**
you should fare well against any attack.
**[19:57] Peeps**
Also, monsters like wraiths that are all but
immune to damage from impact and heat
**[20:04] Peeps**
would almost certainly wreak
unilateral havoc upon them.
**[20:07] Elsa**
T-Truly?
**[20:10] Peeps**
Indeed.
**[20:11] Peeps**
Our world is far more versatile.
**[20:17] Sasaki**
* Wait, is Earth actually*
* the world in danger here?*
**[20:20] Sasaki**
* I've resigned myself*
* to a lonely life, more or less,*
**[20:24] Sasaki**
* but I do have a friend or two*
* I go drinking with when they ask.*
**[20:28] Sasaki**
* I've had a few kind work*
* acquaintances, as well...*
**[20:34] Elsa**
Oh? I've never seen that
expression on your face, Sasaki.
**[20:37] Sasaki**
Well, this *is* my hometown.
**[20:39] Elsa**
Seeing you like that just now
sent a thrill up my spine!
**[20:44] Sasaki**
Surely you jest.
**[20:46] Elsa**
You've been scolding me
this whole time, after all.
**[20:50] Sasaki**
Well, I am rather sorry about that...
**[20:55] Elsa**
You must be the only person besides
my father who ever scolds me like that!
**[21:01] Sasaki**
* Has Lady Elsa got a bit*
* of a sadistic streak to her?*
**[21:04] Peeps**
You may rest easy.
We would never do anything like that.
**[21:09] Sasaki**
Of course. I trust you, Peeps.
**[21:13] Peeps**
I'm glad.
**[21:20] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa?
**[21:23] Elsa**
My father's going to be cross with me.
**[21:26] Peeps**
He likely will scold you, it's true.
**[21:29] Peeps**
It's natural for any caring father
to worry about his daughter.
**[21:34] Peeps**
Fret not.
**[21:36] Peeps**
We'll help explain the matter to Julius.
**[21:40] Peeps**
We share in the responsibility
for failing to confirm our cargo.
**[21:45] Sasaki**
That's right.
**[21:46] Elsa**
Thank you, Mr. Bird... Peeps.
**[21:49] Peeps**
Another hour or two will
make little difference.
**[21:53] Peeps**
Let us learn more
about this world together!
**[21:56] Sasaki**
*That look in his eyes...*
**[21:59] Elsa**
Okay!
**[22:07] Peeps**
That's known as a biidoro.
**[22:09] Peeps**
It makes a curious sound
when it's blown into!
**[22:14] Sasaki**
*Yeah, that's a bit off the subject...*
**[22:19] Sasaki**
*But I suppose it's fine.*
**[22:23] Shizuka**
Thank you. I appreciate it.
**[22:27] Shizuka**
I've confirmed the quality
of what you brought me.
**[22:30] Shizuka**
I'm willing to pay the
initially negotiated price.
**[22:33] Sasaki**
Thank you.
**[22:35] Sasaki**
I'd be happy to go through with it.
**[22:37] Shizuka**
But how shall I pay you?
**[22:40] Sasaki**
Regarding that...
**[22:42] Sasaki**
Could part of the payment go
toward acquiring items I ask for?
**[22:46] Sasaki**
I promise it won't be anything
especially difficult to acquire.
**[22:51] Shizuka**
Will you be paying me for my labor?
**[22:54] Sasaki**
Yes, of course.
**[22:56] Shizuka**
In that case, I'm willing to be flexible.
**[23:01] Sasaki**
I greatly appreciate it.
**[23:02] Sasaki**
I'd like to go with that, then.
**[23:05] Sasaki**
* That will make it less likely*
* to get back to the chief.*
**[23:08] Sasaki**
* At this rate, I should be able to ensure*
* Marc-san's freedom very soon.*
**[23:15] Sasaki**
Peeps.
**[23:15] Peeps**
Indeed.
**[23:18] Sasaki**
Lady Elsa, allow me to accompany you home.
**[23:19] Sign**
The Wanderer
**[23:23] Elsa**
Very well. Please do.
