[00:11] Lawrence
    A lot of things happened,
    but our gold smuggling operation was a success.
[00:15] Lawrence
    We were able to secure my future as a merchant,
[00:18] Lawrence
    as well as open the path
    of a tailor to Ms. Nora.
[00:24] Lawrence
    Let's drink and eat our fill today.
[00:27] Lawrence
    Now, cheers to a bright future ahead!

    Supper of Three and Afternoon of Two
[02:02] Lawrence
    What? Is that what happened?
[02:03] Nora
    Yes!
[02:04] Lawrence
    That was truly impressive.
[02:06] Nora
    Not at all!
[02:07] Lawrence
    As expected of you, Ms. Nora.
[02:09] Nora
    It was only because the sheep
    were all very obedient.
[02:13] Lawrence
    Don't be modest. It's because you are
    a really skilled shepherd.
[02:17] Nora
    That's not true...
[02:20] Lawrence
    Oh, it's here.
[02:21] Nora
    It looks delicious.
[02:23] Lawrence
    Let's cut into it.
[02:30] Lawrence
    Here.
[02:31] Nora
    Thank you very much.
[02:33] Lawrence
    You're welcome.
[02:34] Lawrence
    Do you want some, too?
[02:39] Lawrence
    Let me know if you want some.
[02:41] Lawrence
    Even so, I didn't know
    sheep could find rock salt.
[02:45] Nora
    For some reason, they really love salty things.
[02:48] Nora
    For instance, if you rub some salt onto a rock,
    they'll stay there and lick it forever.
[02:57] Lawrence
    Come to think of it, I once heard that
    a faraway town used sheep as a torture method.
[03:05] Lawrence
    I thought such a thing would be impossible.
[03:08] Nora
    Using sheep?
[03:09] Lawrence
    Yes, I've forgotten the name of the town,
[03:13] Lawrence
    but it's said that they have
    sheep lick the prisoner's feet.
[03:18] Nora
    Huh?
[03:18] Nora
    The sheep?
[03:26] Lawrence
    Yes. They have the sheep lick the person's
    feet by slathering salt on them.
[03:30] Lawrence
    At first, it only feels ticklish,
    but the sheep don't stop,
[03:34] Lawrence
    and they end up laughing so much it's painful.
[03:36] Nora
    Oh, my!
[03:38] Lawrence
    Have your sheep ever licked
    your hands or fingers before?
[03:41] Nora
    It's true that my sheep have gathered around me
[03:44] Nora
    before trying to lick my hands
    after I've eaten some dried meat.
[03:49] Lawrence
    In comparison, it seems that the knight
    at your side is quite obedient.
[03:56] Nora
    Hmm, well, there are times when Enek tries
    a little too hard or gets a little stubborn.
[04:12] Lawrence
    If that's the case, you must truly be
    a skilled shepherd to guide all of them.
[04:16] Nora
    Well, that's...
[04:21] Lawrence
    By the way, Ms. Nora, are you planning...
[04:27] Lawrence
    What's the matter? Are you already drunk?
[04:32] Lawrence
    Your face looks pale!
[04:34] Holo
    It's nothing, I'm just...
[04:40] Lawrence
    Holo!
[04:40] Lawrence
    Holo! Hey! Get a hold of yourself! Holo!
[04:46] Holo
    For hundreds of years,
    I have lived alone in those wheat fields.
[04:50] Holo
    They were peaceful days.
[04:54] Holo
    One could not tell the difference
    between yesterday and today,
[04:56] Holo
    much less tomorrow or the day after that.
[04:59] Holo
    I would only be reminded
    of the concept of time on festival days.
[05:05] Holo
    In a year, there would be
    one harvest festival, two planting festivals,
[05:10] Holo
    a festival to pray that
    there wouldn't be frost,
[05:13] Holo
    a festival to pray for rain,
[05:16] Holo
    and a festival to pray for calm winds.
[05:21] Holo
    In comparison, the days of my travel
    are filled with so many new things
[05:24] Holo
    that I feel as if I were born again.
[05:27] Holo
    The days I have experienced
    since meeting my traveling companion
[05:29] Holo
    are already comparable to
    hundreds of years worth of my life.
[05:33] Holo
    Even in a single day, the morning and evening
    are completely different experiences.
[05:37] Holo
    We may argue vigorously in the morning,
    but reconcile in the afternoon,
[05:42] Holo
    having him take breadcrumbs
    off my face while teasing him,
[05:45] Holo
    only to fight with him once again
    over the food at supper,
[05:48] Holo
    then quietly talk about the plans
    of tomorrow at night.
[05:52] Holo
    I have traveled and lived with
    other humans in the past.
[05:56] Holo
    I have unforgettable memories as well.
[06:00] Holo
    However, there is never
    a chance to get lost in them.
[06:04] Holo
    I am busy wondering what my companion was
    doing the day before, how he was this morning,
[06:08] Holo
    and what he may be scheming
    at this very moment.
[06:12] Holo
    I only had time to recall my birthplace
    with sad nostalgia when I first met him.
[06:18] Holo
    With days so full of excitement that it makes
    me dizzy, I have no time to feel such sadness.
[06:24] Holo
    It would be a lie to say I am not having fun.
[06:27] Holo
    In fact, I am having
    so much fun that I feel uneasy.
[06:39] Holo
    Where am I?
[06:49] Holo
    What a blunder.
[06:53] Holo
    I wonder why.
[06:55] Holo
    I get angry when it is not to my liking,
    laugh because it is funny,
[06:59] Holo
    and end up exposing my weak side...
[07:03] Holo
    No, this is all the fault of that man!
[07:06] Holo
    We were able to overcome this ordeal
    thanks to this Wise Wolf!
[07:10] Holo
    What is so good about the meager
    form of that shepherd?
[07:16] Holo
    Is it her blonde hair?
[07:18] Holo
    Where is that man right now?
[07:21] Holo
    To think he is not at my side in my time
    of need. He is truly a failure as a male...
[07:51] Lawrence
    Why didn't you tell me
    you weren't feeling well?
[07:55] Lawrence
    You're not a child.
[07:56] Lawrence
    Don't tell me you didn't realize it
    until you fainted?
[08:00] Lawrence
    I was really worried about you.
[08:01] Lawrence
    What if this happened
    in the middle of traveling?
[08:04] Lawrence
    Even a small incident can lead to one's death.
[08:08] Holo
    I am sorry.
[08:10] Lawrence
    Well, I'm just glad that you're okay.
[08:12] Lawrence
    It's not a cold or sickness, is it?
[08:17] Holo
    I think my exhaustion
    has merely caught up to me.
[08:19] Lawrence
    As I thought.
[08:21] Lawrence
    I'm pretty knowledgeable about sicknesses.
[08:24] Lawrence
    It's just that...
[08:25] Lawrence
    I thought maybe it was from
    eating onion or something.
[08:29] Holo
    I am not a dog!
[08:32] Lawrence
    Yeah, you're a Wise Wolf.
[08:35] Holo
    However, I regret wasting the wine
    and sumptuous meal.
[08:39] Lawrence
    I'm a merchant. And I am no fool.
[08:42] Lawrence
    I wrapped up all the leftovers
    and brought them back with us.
[08:45] Lawrence
    Is what I'd like to say, but...
[08:57] Lawrence
    As I thought, you have a fever.
[08:59] Lawrence
    You must have been really tired.
[09:01] Holo
    It is all your fault.
[09:02] Lawrence
    Huh? Me?
[09:04] Holo
    Your fingers are hard and
    similar to the nose of a wolf.
[09:10] Holo
    Rubbing your nose on me, in human terms...
[09:16] Holo
    I cannot say it out loud.
[09:17] Lawrence
    What nonsense is that?
[09:18] Holo
    Enough! Leave me alone!
[09:21] Lawrence
    Well, you'll need to stay away
    from meat for a while.
[09:26] Lawrence
    In exchange, I'll make some food that is
    easy to eat for the sick tomorrow.
[09:30] Lawrence
    Rest well and recover your strength.
[09:32] Holo
    I feel like there will be a heavy price
    to pay when you act with kindness.
[09:34] Lawrence
    I should be the one saying that.
[09:53] Holo
    Where has he gone and what is he doing?
[09:56] Holo
    In Yoitsu, taking care of the sick means
    grooming the other's fur with their tongue
[10:00] Holo
    and huddling close to give them warmth.
[10:02] Holo
    I cannot believe he is not by
    my side when I open my eyes!
[10:10] Lawrence
    How are you feeling?
[10:11] Holo
    I cannot sit up.
[10:13] Lawrence
    You're probably lying.
[10:16] Lawrence
    Well, then. I'll have some
    porridge made for you.
[10:19] Holo
    My throat is parched. Is that water?
[10:22] Lawrence
    Oh. No, you had a fever yesterday, didn't you?
[10:26] Lawrence
    That's why I brought some apple wine.
[10:31] Lawrence
    What's the matter?
[10:32] Holo
    The covers are too heavy.
[10:37] Lawrence
    How's that?
[10:38] Holo
    My apologies.
[10:54] Lawrence
    What's the matter?
[10:56] Holo
    The flavor...
[10:57] Lawrence
    Oh, I diluted it.
[10:59] Holo
    This is much too diluted!
    I thought something was wrong with my nose!
[11:04] Lawrence
    You had a fever, didn't you?
[11:05] Lawrence
    That's why you get diluted apple wine.
[11:07] Holo
    Why is that the case?
[11:09] Lawrence
    Oh, I see. You don't know
    about stuff like this.
[11:13] Lawrence
    I ran to a trading house when you fainted
[11:15] Lawrence
    and read through translated
    medical books in a panic.
[11:20] Holo
    And what was written in those texts?
[11:22] Lawrence
    Sickness is when the balance
    of a person's body crumbles.
[11:26] Lawrence
    Things like exhaustion or miasma can cause it.
[11:28] Lawrence
    The body can also be affected
    by the alignment of the stars.
[11:32] Lawrence
    You can heal the sick
    by restoring the patient's balance.
[11:35] Lawrence
    To do that, you must make use
    of the four temperaments.
[11:39] Holo
    Four temperaments?
[11:41] Lawrence
    Yeah, the four temperaments of the human
    body are warm, cold, dry, and moist.
[11:47] Lawrence
    You can balance those temperaments
    with the food you eat.
[11:50] Lawrence
    That's because food can also be
    categorized into hot foods,
[11:54] Lawrence
    cold foods, dry foods, and moist foods.
[11:58] Lawrence
    You currently have a fever, so cold foods
    like apples are perfect for you.
[12:02] Holo
    If that is the case,
    I would rather eat fresh apples.
[12:07] Lawrence
    That's not good enough.
[12:09] Lawrence
    While apples are considered a cold food,
[12:10] Lawrence
    they're also medically
    categorized as a dry food.
[12:13] Lawrence
    Sick people are often dry,
    so they have to be kept moist.
[12:18] Lawrence
    That's why it had to be a drink.
[12:20] Lawrence
    It's just that strong alcohol
    is considered hot,
[12:23] Lawrence
    so I had to dilute it to keep it cold.
[12:26] Holo
    So, that is why I am drinking this
    terrible tasting water with a hint of color.
[12:32] Holo
    So? What kind of food will you have me eat?
[12:36] Lawrence
    Well, since you had an exhaustion fever,
    we need to cool you down first.
[12:42] Lawrence
    Your body should also be dry,
    so we'll have to replenish your moisture.
[12:47] Lawrence
    Don't you get thirsty after running?
[12:49] Lawrence
    However, moist things will cool down the body
[12:52] Lawrence
    and if it gets too cold
    people will become melancholic.
[12:54] Lawrence
    That's why we have to warm you up, too.
[12:57] Lawrence
    Putting that into consideration...
[12:58] Lawrence
    Putting that into consideration,
    some wheat grains simmered in sheep milk
[13:03] Lawrence
    with slices of apples and cheese should work.
[13:08] Lawrence
    The reason, starting with the apples...
[13:11] Holo
    Yes, that is good. That is what I wish to eat.
[13:14] Holo
    No, if I do not eat it,
    I will collapse once again.
[13:17] Holo
    Look. My face is so pale.
[13:20] Holo
    Come, now, bring it here quickly!
[13:23] Lawrence
    You're actually all better, aren't you?
[13:27] Holo
    I feel dizzy...
[13:29] Lawrence
    H-Hey! Get a hold of yourself!
[13:32] Holo
    Please hurry.
[13:37] Lawrence
    Goodness...
[13:39] Lawrence
    So, you don't want any more apple wine?
[13:42] Holo
    Well, this is fine as it is, as well.
[13:45] Holo
    Make sure the porridge portion is large.
[13:47] Lawrence
    Sure. Sure.
[14:01] Holo
    Sometimes, I dream.
[14:04] Holo
    I dream of my birthplace,
    and I dream of the wheat fields.
[14:08] Holo
    While they are both nostalgic dreams,
[14:10] Holo
    there is an overwhelming feeling
    of repulsion along with them.
[14:14] Holo
    As an existence that stands above others,
[14:17] Holo
    they were both times that I had to
    accept and fulfill my responsibilities.
[14:22] Holo
    Neither was I asked, nor did I ask for it,
    but it was a duty that someone must do.
[14:28] Holo
    Before I realized it, the heavy, heavy shackle
    had already dug itself into my neck.
[14:36] Holo
    They depend on me because I am powerful,
[14:38] Holo
    they revere me because of my immense size,
    and they honor me because I am useful.
[14:43] Holo
    I did not ask for their worship,
[14:46] Holo
    but I could not abandon them
    and let myself be imprisoned.
[14:51] Holo
    Neither did I ask for the responsibility
    nor was asked to take it,
[14:56] Holo
    yet hundreds of years passed by.
[14:59] Holo
    I am used to sniffing the aroma
    of delicious food.
[15:02] Holo
    And yet, until now, I had never seen a person
[15:05] Holo
    who would give me such a friendly smile
    when my nose twitched at the smell of food.
[15:11] Holo
    Though, that human is an impudent one
    that does not know his place.
[15:22] Lawrence
    Can you prop yourself up?
[15:28] Lawrence
    Goodness...
[15:29] Lawrence
    You better take really good care
    of me if I ever get sick.
[15:33] Holo
    As long as the traditions
    of Yoitsu are acceptable.
[15:35] Lawrence
    What's that supposed to mean?
[15:37] Holo
    Do not worry.
    I have an exceptionally good nose.
[15:40] Holo
    I will notice before you get to this point
    and do something about it.
[15:44] Lawrence
    Well, it's my fault for not noticing sooner.
[15:47] Lawrence
    But I hope you say something
    to me first, next time.
[15:51] Lawrence
    I'm, well, pretty dense
    about this kind of thing.
[15:56] Holo
    That is true.
[15:57] Holo
    I expect you would be slow
    to notice a certain sickness
[16:00] Holo
    that even doctors cannot heal, as well.
[16:02] Lawrence
    Huh?
[16:03] Holo
    It is nothing.
[16:04] Holo
    More importantly, food.
[16:06] Lawrence
    Goodness, are you some kind of princess?
[16:25] Holo
    Will you use the spoon and feed me?
[16:30] Lawrence
    Here you go.
[16:41] Holo
    It would be more delicious with more apples.
[16:44] Lawrence
    Maybe. Cold apples might make you
    a little more melancholic.
[16:48] Holo
    Are you...
[16:51] Holo
    Are you saying I am too merry?
[16:54] Lawrence
    I'm just saying it wouldn't hurt
    to become a little quieter.
[17:03] Lawrence
    Well, I'm a little relieved
    seeing you eat this much.
[17:06] Lawrence
    I'm sure you'll get better in a day or two.
[17:09] Lawrence
    Well, there's no rush.
[17:11] Lawrence
    We'll be traveling on my cart
    for a while after we leave town.
[17:14] Lawrence
    You can take your time to recover.
[17:19] Holo
    But, you know...
[17:21] Holo
    The inn is, well, too quiet...
[17:29] Lawrence
    True. It's noisy when we travel by cart.
[17:33] Lawrence
    I don't have anything to do today.
[17:36] Lawrence
    And, I still need to get advice on what
    a certain big eater should eat this evening.
[17:41] Lawrence
    So, do you have a rough idea
    of what you'd like to eat?
[17:45] Lawrence
    I won't be able to prepare the right
    ingredients after the market closes.
[17:50] Lawrence
    You may look energetic, but that may not
    hold true on the inside. No heavy food.
[17:57] Holo
    Even meat?
[17:58] Lawrence
    No way. You can eat porridge
    or maybe bread soaked in soup...
[18:03] Holo
    Then, I wish to eat the same thing.
[18:05] Holo
    Sheep milk, was it? It was deliciously sweet
    and rich at the same time. I want that.
[18:10] Lawrence
    Sheep milk, huh?
[18:12] Holo
    Is there a problem?
[18:14] Lawrence
    It spoils easily, so good sheep milk
    is really expensive after noon.
[18:18] Lawrence
    You want it fresh, don't you?
[18:20] Holo
    Of course.
[18:21] Lawrence
    Well, I guess I'll have Nora
    go find some again.
[18:24] Lawrence
    Since she's a shepherd, she has a good eye.
[18:27] Holo
    Nora, you say?
[18:30] Lawrence
    No, I just want to
    get some good milk for you...
[18:34] Holo
    If you spend enough money, it doesn't
    matter if you have a good eye or not!
[18:37] Lawrence
    Th-There's no reason not to hire a guide!
[18:41] Lawrence
    However!
[18:42] Lawrence
    However, why do you treat Nora
    like a sworn enemy?
[18:46] Holo
    Wh-What did you say?
[18:48] Lawrence
    W-Well, I don't know what happened
    between you and shepherds in the past.
[18:53] Lawrence
    I also know that you don't like them
    because you're a wolf.
[18:56] Lawrence
    But is there a reason to be so openly hostile?
[18:59] Lawrence
    Nora may be a shepherd,
    but how do I say this...
[19:02] Lawrence
    I mean, she has such a sweet disposition.
[19:04] Lawrence
    There are always exceptions to everything.
[19:10] Holo
    Hey.
[19:11] Lawrence
    Wh-What?
[19:12] Holo
    I am in the wrong.
[19:14] Lawrence
    Is that so? Good to hear.
[19:16] Holo
    However, one does not like or dislike
    something based on logic.
[19:19] Holo
    I have told you this once before.
[19:20] Lawrence
    I understand that. I don't think that
    everything can be explained clearly with reason.
[19:25] Lawrence
    Then, I'm going to go return this.
[19:27] Holo
    And, so...
[19:29] Lawrence
    What is it now?
[19:34] Holo
    Will you come right back after returning that?
[19:39] Lawrence
    Yeah, of course.
    The inn is pretty quiet, after all.
[19:44] Lawrence
    Okay, wait here obediently.
[20:07] Lawrence
    Holo.
[20:14] Lawrence
    Ms. Nora has come to visit you.
[20:20] Nora
    How are you feeling?
[20:23] Holo
    Well, it is just that my exhaustion
    has gotten to me.
[20:27] Holo
    However, I was looking for someone to talk to.
[20:30] Holo
    That is why I wish to ask you something
    that I was always curious about.
[20:35] Nora
    Huh? A question for me?
[20:37] Nora
    I'll gladly answer if I can.
[20:41] Holo
    What is the greatest secret
    to guiding sheep well?
[20:52] Nora
    Probably having a generous heart.
[21:04] Holo
    I see.
[21:08] Lawrence
    The wind is picking up.
[21:13] Holo
    After all, sheep all think that they are smart.
[23:14] Holo
    And that is the story.
[23:16] Holo
    Really, do you not think him
    a troublesome sheep?
[23:18] Myuri
    Was the wolf able to handle
    the sheep well after that?
[23:22] Holo
    Well, I wonder.
[23:25] Myuri
    The story doesn't end there, right?
[23:28] Holo
    Of course not.
[23:29] Myuri
    Then, more!
[23:32] Myuri
    Tell me more about it!
[23:35] Holo
    Hey, now. Do not rush me so.
[23:38] Holo
    As the wolf continued her journey home,
    the place they both headed to next was...
