[00:11] Lant
    Do you think Mr. Lawrence will be all right?
[00:13] Marc
    It'll be tough. He won't be able to put up
    a fight without a huge amount of pyrite.
[00:19] Marc
    We can only hope that Diana
    will send someone for him.
[00:23] Marc
    If he gets impatient and sells
    a middling number of stones,
[00:30] Marc
    he'll just fan the greed of the buyers.
[00:33] Marc
    If that happens,
    the price will keep going up.
[00:36] Lant
    Then, won't Mr. Lawrence be pushed
[00:39] Lant
    into making a move if Mr. Amati
    acts like he's about to sell?
[00:42] Marc
    That's right. You're pretty smart.
[00:49] Lawrence
    Where's Holo?
[01:01] Merchants
    Another buy tag!
[01:03] Merchants
    The value's gonna go up again.
[01:05] Merchants
    I should probably buy some now, too.
[01:08] Lawrence
    Just how much higher will it rise?
SIGN    Episode 19
    God's Unseen Hand and Wolf's Unseen Heart
[01:13] Marc
    Wow, it's gone up that much?
[01:16] Customer
    It'll probably go up twenty percent by noon.
[01:19] Customer
    I should have bought some
    when I still had the chance.
[01:24] Lant
    The price is creeping up.
[01:27] Marc
    Amati currently has eight hundred
    silver coins worth of pyrite.
[01:31] Marc
    If it goes up by twenty percent?
[01:32] Lant
    It'll be worth nine hundred
    and sixty silver coins.
[01:36] Marc
    If that happens, he'll probably sell all his
    assets to gather the remaining forty coins
[01:42] Marc
    and complete the contract.
[01:46] Marc
    He'll do it before the poison
    from the sale on credit takes effect.
[01:51] Lant
    The poison from the sale on credit?
[01:56] Lawrence
    Ms. Diana's representative still isn't here?
[02:01] Lawrence
    If Holo has been by his side the whole time,
[02:03] Lawrence
    Amati might have already
    gained a lot from her wisdom...
[02:10] Merchants
    Another buy tag!
[02:12] Merchants
    I can't believe it's gone up so much.
[02:14] Merchants
    No, I'm sure it'll still go up.
[02:17] Merchants
    How much is it now?
[02:19] Merchants
    All right! Keep going!
[02:24] Lawrence
    This is bad.
[02:32] Lawrence
    Did Ms. Diana make a contract with Amati?
[02:37] Lant
    But won't Mr. Lawrence make
    a lot of money if Mr. Amati wins?
[02:41] Marc
    You're right.
[02:42] Lant
    Then, he succeeded as a merchant.
[02:45] Marc
    But his losses will be great.
[02:49] Marc
    There are things you can never obtain again,
    no matter how much money you make.
[02:54] Merchants
    Should we sell?
[02:55] Merchants
    No, we should wait a little longer.
[02:57] Merchants
    I'm sure it'll keep going up!
[02:59] (Flashback) Batos
    You're interested in the alchemists' pyrite?
[03:03] (Flashback) Marc
    You didn't find a place to buy pyrite
    before signing the contract with him?!
[03:06] (Flashback) Lawrence
    Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time.
[03:08] (Flashback) Diana
    Someone else has already requested
    its purchase before you.
[03:11] (Flashback) Diana
    I will be the one to do the negotiations.
[03:13] (Flashback) Diana
    Where will I be sure to find you tomorrow?
[03:18] Merchants
    The number of buyers isn’t going down.
[03:19] Merchants
    No sellers.
[03:20] Lawrence
    Doesn't look good...
[03:20] Merchants
    It just keeps going up.
[03:21] Merchant
    Another buyer!
[03:23] Merchants
    Amazing. How much longer will it keep going?
[03:24] Merchants
    All right! Keep going!
[03:26] Merchants
    This isn't the time to be doing business deals!
[03:28] (Flashback) Holo
    You thought a thousand silver coins
    would be worth the loss, did you not?!
[03:37] Lawrence
    He's looking for her, too?
[03:39] Merchants
    A seller!
[03:39] Merchants
    Someone sold!
[03:40] Lawrence
    Was it Amati?!
[03:41] Merchants
    For how much?
[03:41] Merchants
    How will the prices move?
[03:45] Lawrence
    Excuse me!
[03:46] Lawrence
    Please!
[03:47] Lawrence
    Please let me through!
[03:53] Lawrence
    Oh, um...
[03:55] Merchants
    Another buyer!
[03:56] Merchants
    It bounced right back...
[03:58] Merchants
    That was quick.
[03:59] Merchants
    It's not gonna stop rising.
[04:00] Merchants
    Will the price start moving?
[04:01] Merchant A
    Is it time to sell?
[04:02] Merchant B
    No, you should still buy.
[04:02] Merchants
    This has got to be as far as it goes.
[04:04] Merchants
    It's a little unusual today.
[04:07] Lawrence
    Holo?!
[04:08] Lant
    E-Excuse me.
[04:11] Lawrence
    Oh, it's you.
[04:13] Lant
    Someone came by our stall
    wanting to buy wheat with stones.
[04:18] Lawrence
    How much?
[04:19] Lant
    Two hundred and fifty coins worth.
[04:23] Lawrence
    As much as you can, quickly.
[04:24] Lant
    Yes!
[04:29] Merchants
    A seller!
[04:29] Merchants
    I need it to go up even more.
[04:32] Merchants
    The number of sellers is increasing.
[04:33] Merchants
    I'm buying! This is where it counts!
[04:36] Merchants
    The price isn't dropping!
[04:39] (Flashback) Marc
    Amati bought five hundred coins
    worth of pyrite from Lawrence,
[04:43] (Flashback) Marc
    but he has a contract
    instead of the actual product.
[04:46] (Flashback) Marc
    He'll be delivering the actual
    product tomorrow evening.
[04:54] (Flashback) Marc
    Do you understand what that means?
[04:57] (Flashback) Lant
    He'll be able to sell the contract
    if the price seems to be rising,
[05:00] (Flashback) Lant
    but not if it's dropping.
[05:03] Marc
    That's right.
[05:04] (Flashback) Marc
    No one wants to hold
    onto something that dangerous.
[05:07] (Flashback) Marc
    If the price drops back down to normal,
[05:11] (Flashback) Marc
    the contract he bought for five hundred
    silver becomes a worthless piece of paper.
[05:17] (Flashback) Lant
    The final person with
    the contract will go bankrupt.
[05:20] (Flashback) Marc
    That's right. That's why being sold
    on credit is so poisonous.
[05:30] Merchants
    Is this the limit?
[05:32] Merchants
    The patient ones will win out in the end.
[05:33] Merchants
    This price is good enough for me. I'm selling!
[05:35] Lawrence
    Hurry up, Lant.
[05:40] Merchants
    It's time to sell.
[05:41] Amati
    Ms. Holo? Ms. Holo?
[05:42] Merchants
    I should before the price drops any further...
[05:44] Merchants
    Another buyer!
[05:46] Merchants
    How much?
[05:46] Merchants
    I can't see! Don't crowd the front!
[05:48] Merchants
    It's a huge buyer!
[05:52] Merchants
    It went up again.
[05:53] Lawrence
    Have I hit the limit?
[05:54] Merchants
    But will it keep going up?
[05:55] Merchants
    I'm sure this is as far as it'll go.
[05:57] Lawrence
    There's a small number of buyers right now.
[06:02] Lawrence
    If I sold everything I have...
[06:05] Lawrence
    I'm selling!
[06:07] Merchants
    A seller.
[06:08] Merchants
    That much?
[06:11] Merchants
    The price dropped a lot.
[06:12] Merchants
    I missed the timing to sell...
[06:13] Merchants
    It'll go back up. We still have a chance!
[06:27] Lawrence
    If I had Ms. Diana's four hundred coins
    worth of pyrite right now,
[06:32] Lawrence
    the price would definitely crash.
[06:41] Lawrence
    If she appears now...
[06:42] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence!
[06:48] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence.
[06:49] Lant
    Sorry for the wait!
    Here's two hundred and fifty coins worth!
[06:55] Lant
    What's wrong?
[06:57] Lawrence
    Y-Yeah...
[07:00] Lawrence
    To be safe, I should wait
    for Ms. Diana's representative...
[07:04] Lant
    But...
[07:06] Lant
    Is that person coming?
[07:08] Lawrence
    Huh?
[07:09] Lawrence
    That's right.
[07:10] Lawrence
    I just gave up on that a moment ago.
[07:14] Lawrence
    If I'm gambling...
[07:18] Lawrence
    I need to sell before another buyer appears!
[07:21] Lant
    Oh...
[07:25] Merchants
    Here it is! A big buyer!
[07:26] Merchants
    Hey, what's the price now?!
[07:37] Merchants
    It's a stabilizing buy!
[07:38] Merchants
    It went up again!
    It's the highest it's ever been!
[07:40] Merchants
    I'm going to buy! It's still time to buy!
[07:40] Lant
    What's the matter?
[07:41] Lawrence
    There's... another buyer.
[07:45] Lawrence
    The winds have changed.
[07:48] Lawrence
    Now, all I can do is wait
    for Ms. Diana's representative...
[07:53] Lant
    L-Look!
[07:59] Lawrence
    Holo!
[08:02] Lawrence
    There's no mistake.
[08:04] Lawrence
    Amati has realized the danger
    of being sold on credit.
[08:08] Lant
    Oh, Mr. Lawrence!
[08:11] Lawrence
    I'm out of time.
[08:13] Lawrence
    Please, hurry.
[08:15] Lawrence
    Please!
[08:17] Diana's Rep
    Are you Mr. Lawrence?
[08:22] Diana's Rep
    You're Mr. Lawrence, aren't you?
[08:23] Lawrence
    Y-Yes.
[08:25] Diana's Rep
    I have a message from Ms. Diana.
[08:32] Diana's Rep
    She has failed in the negotiations.
[08:36] Diana's Rep
    Ms. Diana says she has failed to convince
    the other party to sell to you.
[08:43] Diana's Rep
    She also apologizes for being unable
    to meet your expectations.
[08:48] Diana's Rep
    If you'll excuse me...
[08:59] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence.
[09:03] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence.
[09:05] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence!
[09:06] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence!
[09:08] Lawrence
    O-Oh...
[09:10] Lawrence
    Sorry.
[09:11] Lawrence
    I caused you a lot of trouble...
[09:14] Lant
    Huh? No, that's not...
[09:17] Lawrence
    Please give Marc a message.
[09:20] Lawrence
    The plan failed.
[09:24] Lawrence
    Well, I'll get a thousand
    silver coins from Amati.
[09:27] Lawrence
    As a merchant, I should be happy.
[09:30] Lawrence
    Here, this is for you...
[09:36] Lant
    Mr. Lawrence!
[09:41] Lant
    A-Are you giving up?!
[09:43] Lant
    Master has always told me that
    merchants should never give up easily.
[09:47] Lant
    Th-The god of money
    doesn't come to those who pray,
[09:52] Lant
    but to those who don't give up easily!
[09:58] Lant
    I...
[10:00] Lant
    I fell in love with Ms. Holo
    the moment I saw her!
[10:04] Lant
    But Master told me that you would...
[10:11] Lant
    beat me senseless if I told you!
[10:16] Lawrence
    Yeah, someone's definitely in for a beating!
[10:23] Lawrence
    I want to go all out...
[10:26] Lawrence
    on myself.
[10:30] Lant
    Huh?
[10:31] Lawrence
    I forgot.
[10:33] Lawrence
    People who don't give up easily
    are all unbelievably wishful thinkers.
[10:40] Lawrence
    And I'm one of them.
[10:43] Lawrence
    A merchant does business
    by making plans, predictions,
[10:46] Lawrence
    and comparing those things against the facts.
[10:49] Lawrence
    If I sell that, this'll happen.
[10:51] Lawrence
    If I buy this, that'll happen.
[10:52] Lawrence
    It's an important aspect of business.
[10:55] Lawrence
    But people can make
    all the hypotheses they want.
[10:58] Lawrence
    That's why you can get lost
    if you make too many of them.
[11:01] Lawrence
    You start thinking that any business
    you do is full of dangers.
[11:05] Lawrence
    That's why you need a guidepost.
[11:10] Lawrence
    That is the one thing every merchant must have.
[11:13] Lawrence
    If it's a trustworthy guidepost,
[11:15] Lawrence
    you should have faith in it...
[11:21] Lawrence
    no matter how crazy something seems.
[11:27] Lawrence
    That's how it should be.
[11:30] Lawrence
    Once I sell the pyrite,
    spread the rumor I asked you to spread.
[11:35] Lant
    Y-Yes!
[11:37] Lawrence
    Do you believe in God?
[11:39] Lant
    Huh?
[11:42] Lawrence
    I'm depending on you.
[11:51] Stall Owner
    You're here again.
[11:55] Lawrence
    I'm selling.
[12:01] Holo
    I am selling as well.
[12:02] Merchants
    Another seller?
[12:03] Holo
    Fool.
[12:03] Merchants
    Hey, that amount...
[12:05] Lawrence
    Sorry.
[12:07] Lawrence
    Unlike someone else I know,
    she was a mature and beautiful lady, right?
[12:08] Stall Owner
    Hey, come and help!
[12:19] Merchants
    A seller!
[12:20] Merchants
    How much will the price change?
[12:28] Merchants
    It's a huge sale!
[12:30] Merchants
    Sell!
[12:31] Merchants
    I'm selling, too!
[12:32] Merchants
    Out of the way! Me first!
[12:33] Merchants
    Hey, shopkeeper! Come here quickly!
[12:59] Lawrence
    In the end, Amati didn't lose
    too much financially,
[13:03] Lawrence
    but it was a huge psychological blow to him.
[13:09] (Flashback) Kumerson Associate
    You shouldn't have tried
    to take another person's woman.
[13:15] Lawrence
    That's what he was told.
[13:19] Holo
    I had planned to break things off
    with him in a much harsher manner.
[13:22] Lawrence
    Huh?
[13:23] Holo
    I cannot forgive his words!
[13:26] Lawrence
    What?
[13:27] Holo
    Do not ask me what words he spoke.
[13:30] Lawrence
    That's probably for the best.
[13:33] Holo
    So? You cannot possibly think
    that everything has been resolved.
[13:43] Lawrence
    I'm sorry.
[13:44] Holo
    Do you truly know what
     you should be sorry for?
[13:49] Lawrence
    I do.
[13:53] Lawrence
    At least, I think so.
[13:56] Lawrence
    My contract with Mr. Amati
    was a complete ego trip, right?
[14:05] Lawrence
    And the worst thing was,
    I didn't completely trust you.
[14:11] Lawrence
    You showed me the white feathers to tell me
[14:13] Lawrence
    that you were the one
    who bought the pyrite from Ms. Diana.
[14:17] Lawrence
    You disappeared because you
    were getting the pyrite from Ms. Diana.
[14:23] Lawrence
    However, I thought you laid a trap for me
    when Amati sold some of his stones.
[14:29] Holo
    Explain yourself!
[14:33] Lawrence
    I thought you were trying
    to get me to play my hand...
[14:36] Lawrence
    On top of that, if the price kept rising,
[14:39] Lawrence
    I'd have to buy the pyrite
    I promised Amati at a higher price...
[14:43] Lawrence
    I thought you had completely
    turned to Amati's side.
[14:48] Lawrence
    But I was wrong.
[14:49] Lawrence
    You instigated Amati, who isn't used
    to this kind of trade, to sell some.
[14:54] Lawrence
    You were trying to tell me
    that Amati had enough stock,
[14:58] Lawrence
    so I should hurry up and sell, right?
[15:03] Holo
    Goodness...
[15:07] Lawrence
    Even before that, you sent over
    the contract you signed that Amati prepared.
[15:12] Lawrence
    That...
[15:14] Lawrence
    That was to make me
    upset enough to take action...
[15:20] Lawrence
    Wasn't it?
[15:21] Holo
    I was on the second floor at the time...
[15:27] Holo
    It is nothing.
[15:28] Holo
    Continue!
[15:32] Lawrence
    You told me in Ruvinheigen.
[15:34] Lawrence
    I shouldn't try to play games
    and tell you how I truly feel.
[15:38] Lawrence
    You told me problems are solved faster
    if we get angry and argue with one another.
[15:42] Lawrence
    Then, we had our first misunderstanding.
[15:45] Lawrence
    When you got upset
    about the issue with Yoitsu...
[15:48] Lawrence
    The apology you gave me at the end...
[15:50] (Flashback) Holo
    I am sorry.
[15:53] Lawrence
    I thought you were rejecting me.
[15:56] Lawrence
    But you actually said that because
    you returned to your senses, right?
[16:00] Holo
    You fool!
[16:03] Holo
    This is what they mean when they say
    the thinking of a fool is a waste of time!
[16:06] Holo
    You ruined all of my efforts!
[16:09] Holo
    As if that were not enough,
    you thought I sided with the enemy?
[16:13] Holo
    You were so obsessed with the contract
     you signed with that youngster!
[16:18] Holo
    It is true that I met you only recently.
[16:22] Holo
    Even so, I believed that we formed
    a bond that was far from shallow!
[16:27] Holo
    Was that merely a one-sided assumption?
[16:32] Holo
    Or could it be that you truly...
[16:37] Lawrence
    I want to continue traveling with you.
[16:50] Lawrence
    Until now, I've spent
    my entire life doing business.
[16:53] Lawrence
    And I don't plan to change that.
[16:55] Lawrence
    That's why I'm stupid
    when it comes to everything else.
[17:02] Lawrence
    Even so, I want to travel with you.
[17:07] Holo
    Then, what am I to you?
[17:13] Lawrence
    No words can fully describe it.
[17:21] Holo
    What kind of salty line was that?
[17:23] Lawrence
    Don't you love jerky that's well salted?
[17:27] Holo
    I hate it!
[17:35] Lawrence
    There's something I also wanted to ask.
[17:38] Holo
    Hm?
[17:39] Lawrence
    How were you able to convince
    Ms. Diana to sell you the pyrite?
[17:50] Holo
    I was able to figure out your plan
    from what that youngster told me.
[17:57] Holo
    I was impressed you were able to think of
    something like that. You deserve my praise.
[18:02] Holo
    And Diana...
[18:05] Holo
    I visited her for a different reason.
[18:08] Lawrence
    A different reason?
[18:10] Holo
    I found her location
    from her scent on the letter.
[18:12] Holo
    Though, I could hardly stand
    such a powerful smell of sulfur.
[18:17] Holo
    I told her this.
[18:19] Holo
    Invent a story that Yoitsu may still exist
    somewhere and tell that story to you.
[18:25] Holo
    But that young girl refused my request.
[18:30] Lawrence
    Is that so?
[18:34] Holo
    Goodness.
[18:35] Holo
    It was embarrassing, but I told her
    the situation and almost convinced her.
[18:40] Holo
    Then, you appeared.
[18:46] (Flashback) Lawrence
    Is anyone home?
[18:48] Holo
    Then, that young girl
    thought of an unnecessary plan.
[18:53] Holo
    She told me I should confirm
    the depth of your resolve.
[18:56] Holo
    She spoke as if she knew everything...
[18:58] (Flashback) Diana
    Yes, good night.
[19:00] (Flashback) Lawrence
    Excuse me.
[19:05] (Flashback) Diana
    Good luck.
[19:09] Holo
    I heard your foolish question
    clearly with my own ears.
[19:16] (Flashback) Lawrence
    May I ask a question?
[19:18] (Flashback) Diana
    Feel free.
[19:20] (Flashback) Lawrence
    Are there any stories of pagan gods
    and humans becoming a couple?
[19:28] (Flashback) Diana
    Yes.
[19:30] (Flashback) Diana
    There are many.
[19:31] Holo
    It seems there are many stories
    about gods and humans becoming a couple.
[19:37] Holo
    I do not mind, if that is what you wish.
[19:41] Holo
    In exchange...
[19:43] Holo
    please be gentle.
[19:47] Holo
    I am joking.
[19:49] Holo
    I cannot get in the mood
    after talking to that young girl.
[19:55] Holo
    Did you realize that young girl is not human?
[19:58] Lawrence
    Huh?
[19:59] Holo
    There were a lot of feathers
    scattered in her room.
[20:02] Holo
    Those are hers.
[20:04] Lawrence
    Is that so?
[20:05] Holo
    She was originally a bird much bigger than you.
[20:08] Holo
    One day, she fell in love with a traveling monk
[20:12] Holo
    and spent many years
    creating a church with him.
[20:14] Holo
    The monk grew suspicious
    because the young girl never aged.
[20:19] Holo
    I am sure you can guess what happened next.
[20:33] Holo
    I wish to return to my hometown.
[20:36] Holo
    Even if it is no longer there.
[20:39] Lawrence
    Yeah.
[20:52] Holo
    Humans do such flashy things.
[20:55] Lawrence
    Yeah. It's amazing.
[21:10] Holo
    We should join them.
[21:12] Lawrence
    Good idea.
[21:13] Holo
    I do not mind burning passionately
    like that straw figure, you know.
[21:26] Lawrence
    That might work out
    if some alcohol gets involved.
[21:29] Holo
    Who will care for me if you get drunk?!
[21:32] Holo
    You fool!
