[00:10] Guest 2
    That's the way you gotta drink!
[00:12] Guest 1
    Lady, you got skills!
[00:14] Guest 1
    Here you go.
[00:18] Baker
    Come on now.
[00:19] Baker
    As a man, you can't lose to your companion.
[00:23] Guest A
    Drink up! Drink up!
[00:24] Lawrence
    Oh, thank you.
[00:30] Lawrence
    Well, this is a fine beer!
[00:32] Guest B
    Right?
[00:33] Baker
    The mistress of this tavern, Iima Ranel,
    is famous around these parts!
[00:38] Baker
    She has the strength of three men
     and the appetite of five!
[00:43] Iima
    Don't be lying to the travelers!
[00:45] Iima
    Well, here's your garlic fried mutton.
[00:48] Baker
    I was just about to sing your praises!
[00:51] Iima
    Meaning what you said just now wasn't!
[00:54] Guest A
    The tavern mistress here used to travel from
    place to place while carrying a brewing jug!
[01:00] Lawrence
    Huh? No way.
[01:01] Iima
    That's right.
[01:02] Iima
    It was back when I was younger and prettier.
[01:07] Iima
    I was born in a town along
    the coast west of here.
[01:12] Iima
    Towns like that are fated to be
    swept up by the sea one day.
[01:15] Lawrence
    The sea... you mean pirates?
[01:18] Iima
    Right.
[01:18] Iima
    I ran away in the confusion
    and realized afterwards
[01:21] Iima
    that all I had with me was a brewing jug
    on my back and a sack of barley.
[01:25] Iima
    Who knows what I was thinking.
[01:27] Baker
    Here, a glass for you, too!
[01:28] Iima
    Ah, thanks.
[01:30] Iima
    So, with the brewing jug and barley in my arms,
[01:33] Iima
    I used some river water to start brewing beer.
[01:35] Baker
    Then, lo and behold!
[01:37] Baker
    The count and his men passed by
    to check on the efforts against the pirates!
[01:53] Iima
    The count himself asked me if I'd travel
    with him while brewing him beer.
[01:58] Guest A
    Things were looking up
    and the young and beautiful Iima
[02:02] Guest A
    followed the Count with ambition in her eyes!
[02:04] Lawrence
    So, did you become his personal brewer?
[02:08] Iima
    That'd have been impossible.
[02:10] Iima
    As thanks, though, I got permission to go
    around selling beer under the count's name.
[02:16] Guest B
    That's when it started.
    The story of the rare beer selling woman!
[02:21] Iima
    Call me the Wandering Maiden Brewer!
[02:24] Iima
    In order to sell every drop I could,
    I never touched my own beer.
[02:29] Iima
    But I ended up drinking it
    for the first time in this village.
[02:33] Iima
    I got completely drunk and fell into
    the arms of my now husband.
[02:37] Iima
    But, well, this little village ain't too bad.
[02:40] Iima
    I hope you enjoy yourselves here.
[02:41] Lawrence
    Thank you very much.
[02:43] Lawrence
    Wow, what a fine tavern.
[02:46] Lawrence
    I doubt you'd find one this good
     even in the royal capital, Endima.
[02:48] Baker
    Right you are! Right you are!
[02:50] Guest A
    You got an eye for quality!
[02:52] Lawrence
    On top of that, the alcohol is delicious.
[02:53] Lawrence
    I'm sure that this village
    must be blessed by God.
[02:59] Lawrence
    Oh!
[03:00] Lawrence
    I'm so sorry.
[03:01] Guest B
    No, no. It's not your fault.
[03:03] Guest B
    It's true that the village
    owes Father Franz a lot.
[03:08] Guest B
    But, well...
[03:09] Guest A
    No matter what happens,
    we can't disobey Lord Truyeo.
[03:12] Baker
    Yeah, that's right.
[03:12] Guest B
    Right you are.
[03:14] Lawrence
    Lord Truyeo?
[03:15] Guest C
    Yeah, he's the god that protects our village.
[03:18] Guest C
    He grants us bountiful harvests
    and the town Tereo was named after him.
[03:22] Lawrence
    I see...
[03:24] Lawrence
    A god of harvests... Is he a wolf?
[03:27] Guest A
    A wolf?!
[03:29] Guest A
    Don't be ridiculous!
[03:30] Guest A
    That's a tool of the devil!
    No way one'd be a god.
[03:34] Lawrence
    Then?
[03:35] Guest C
    Lord Truyeo is a snake.
[03:38] Guest C
    A snake god.
[03:40] Lawrence
    Snake...
[03:44] Baker
    He's so big that the weather
    is different at the head and at the tail.
[03:47] Baker
    He devours the moon for breakfast
    and swallows up the sun for supper.
[03:51] Baker
    You can't compare him
    to others! You just can't!
[03:54] Guest A
    There's a cave outside the village that Lord
    Truyeo once dug to hibernate in the winter.
[03:59] Lawrence
    Cave?
[04:00] Baker
    There's an old legend that anyone
    who enters the cave will be cursed.
[04:03] Baker
    Even Father Franz got scared
    and told everyone never to enter.
[04:08] Guest C
    The entrance is right against the slope.
    Didn't you see it on the way in?
[04:13] Lawrence
    Now that you mention it...
[04:14] Guest B
    But there's a town called
    Enberch on the way here, right?
[04:19] Guest C
    There's a big church over there and we've
    had problems with it for generations.
[04:23] Guest C
    I think a guy named Mendez
    is currently running it...
[04:26] Guest A
    Enberch was also a town that was
    guarded by Lord Truyeo...
[04:31] Guest B
    But they were roped in by some
    missionaries from the Church
[04:33] Guest B
    and converted over to their side.
[04:35] Holo
    Another!
[04:35] Guest B
    Then, more people came, roads were built,
    and it became a huge town...
[04:40] Lawrence
    The Church is very powerful.
[04:42] Baker
    That's right.
[04:44] Baker
    Well, they got all powerful and
    turned around to convert all of us.
[04:48] Baker
    The original deal was just to
    build a church in the village...
[04:53] Guest A
    Then, they said we needed to pay punitive taxes
[04:55] Guest A
    for them to turn a blind eye to Lord Truyeo!
[04:58] Lawrence
    Punitive taxes?
[04:59] Guest B
    Then, about thirty or forty years ago,
    Father Franz came to this village.
[05:04] Lawrence
    However, doesn't a lady named
    Ms. Elsa now run the church?
[05:09] Guest C
    Yeah, about that...
[05:11] Lawrence
    When we stopped by to pray for safe travels,
[05:14] Lawrence
    we were surprised to see
    a young woman in priestly robes.
[05:17] Baker
    Anyone'd think the same. It's too unrealistic.
[05:20] Baker
    Father Franz picked up
    Ms. Elsa over ten years ago,
[05:25] Baker
    but she wants to be a priest, too?
    No way, right?
[05:31] Guest B
    You're a merchant from a distant land, right?
[05:33] Lawrence
    Y-Yes.
[05:34] Guest A
    Then, do you know anyone
    powerful in the Church?
[05:39] Lawrence
    Someone powerful?
[05:41] Baker
    That's right! Someone who could
    shut Enberch up with one word!
[05:45] Baker
    Ouch!
[05:45] Iima
    Hey, now!
[05:46] Iima
    What are you saying to a traveling merchant?!
[05:49] Baker
    Y-You're right.
[05:51] Iima
    Sorry about that.
[05:52] Iima
    Well, as a traveling merchant,
    I'm sure you know.
[05:55] Iima
    Every village has their problems.
[05:57] Lawrence
    Yes.
[05:58] Iima
    Travelers just need to enjoy
    our food and drink.
[06:02] Iima
    Then, when they go to other towns, they'll
    be able to say how nice our village was.
[06:06] Lawrence
    Yes, I completely agree.
[06:08] Iima
    All right, boys!
[06:09] Iima
    Your last job for the night
    is to drink and be merry!
[06:13] Iima
    ...Is what I'd like to say,
[06:17] Iima
    but your companion seems
    to have completely crashed.
[06:19] Lawrence
    Looks like she went a little too wild...
[06:21] Lawrence
    I'll take her back to the inn before
    she makes a spectacle of herself.
[06:26] Lawrence
    After all, she's still not married yet.
[06:28] Guests
    Thanks for the drinks!
[06:29] Guests
    Thanks!
[06:30] Guests
    Come by again!
SIGN    Spice and Wolf
[08:02] Lawrence
    You drank and ate too much.
SIGN    Episode 21
    Pagan Village and Priest's Contract
[08:05] Holo
    Was that not my job?
[08:07] Lawrence
    I know that, but...
[08:09] Lawrence
    You only ordered expensive things, didn't you?
[08:12] Holo
    What a stingy male...
[08:15] Holo
    But, more importantly, I wish to lie down.
[08:18] Holo
    I don't feel well.
[08:19] Lawrence
    Hey, it's just a bit farther.
    Don't fall asleep.
[08:26] Innkeep
    What's wrong with your companion?
[08:28] Lawrence
    She's just drunk.
[08:31] Innkeep
    That's right. Take these.
[08:43] Lawrence
    Wh-What's wrong?!
[08:47] Holo
    What in the world are these?!
[08:49] Lawrence
    The innkeeper's wife gave them to us.
    She said they were good for hangovers.
[08:54] Holo
    The sourness of these fruits
[08:55] Holo
    would make me sober even if I had
    been drunk for a hundred years.
[09:06] Lawrence
    What a laid-back town.
[09:09] Lawrence
    It seems the shops open up quite late.
[09:11] Holo
    Then waking up only brings cold and hunger.
[09:15] Lawrence
    They say God made us bodies
    that only need sleep once a day.
[09:21] Holo
    Well, I am a wolf.
[09:25] Lawrence
    But it's quite odd.
[09:27] Holo
    Oh?
[09:27] Lawrence
    I'm just wondering how the people
    in this village make money.
[09:31] Holo
    What do you mean by that?
[09:32] Lawrence
    The harvest may be over, but farming
    villages don't have time to rest like this.
[09:37] Lawrence
    On top of that, this village should be
    under heavy taxes imposed by Enberch.
[09:41] Lawrence
    So, why...
[09:43] Holo
    What a miraculous village.
[09:47] Lawrence
    It's ironic you'd call a town that
    doesn't believe in the Church miraculous.
[09:52] Holo
    Hm? Ironic?
[09:54] Lawrence
    What, you didn't realize that when you said it?
[09:56] Holo
    How is that ironic?
[09:58] Lawrence
    I see. Then, let me tell you about
    the miracles the Church preaches about.
[10:03] Holo
    I dislike your haughty way
    of speaking, but I will listen.
[10:07] Lawrence
    The word "miracle" is
    very special to the Church.
[10:10] Lawrence
    A miracle is when God
    uses the power of the Spirit
[10:12] Lawrence
    to create an event that is
    beyond human capability.
[10:17] Lawrence
    If the Church recognizes that
    a person has brought about a miracle,
[10:21] Lawrence
    that person becomes
    a saint and is praised by the people.
[10:25] Holo
    Must the Church recognize a miracle
    as a miracle each time?
[10:29] Lawrence
    It's the job of the Church
    to judge whether it was truly a miracle
[10:33] Lawrence
    and not a trick of the devil.
[10:36] Holo
    So, what miracles has
    the Church actually recognized?
[10:39] Lawrence
    Out of the stories I've heard...
[10:41] Lawrence
    Things like calming a storm,
    instantly healing the sick,
[10:45] Lawrence
    and turning water into wine...
[10:46] Holo
    Wine?!
[10:47] Lawrence
    You only respond to alcohol!
[10:49] Lawrence
    Anyway, the Church only recognizes things
    beyond human capability as a miracle.
[10:56] Holo
    I was also called a god.
[10:58] Lawrence
    I think the amount you can drink
    and eat is pretty godly.
[11:01] Holo
    Fool!
[11:02] Holo
    I have shown such miracles
    to humans for fun in the past!
[11:08] Lawrence
    Well, most of the miracles from
    the Church have some kind of trick to it.
[11:11] Lawrence
    We can't compare them to someone like you...
[11:20] Lawrence
    Looks like I know where I'll be going today.
[11:22] Lawrence
    I may be able to find some clues
    about the abbey we're looking for.
[11:25] Lawrence
    Though, it's your home we're looking for...
    Why am I doing all the work?
[11:30] Holo
    Is it not hard for you to
    move around if I am with you?
[11:34] Holo
    This is a small village.
    There are eyes everywhere.
[11:37] Holo
    I would love to move on my own
    if I were allowed to do so.
[11:41] Holo
    I wish to go to the abbey as soon as
    possible and listen to their stories.
[11:47] Lawrence
    Got it. I'll be back
    in the afternoon at the latest.
[11:51] Holo
    Do not forget a souvenir.
[11:57] Baker
    Good morning, Mr. Lawrence.
[11:59] Lawrence
    Good morning.
[12:00] Lawrence
    Thank you for last night.
[12:02] Baker
    Yeah. We're there every night,
    so feel free to come on by.
[12:06] Baker
    Where are  you going today?
[12:08] Lawrence
    I'm going to get some wheat ground into flour.
[12:10] Baker
    Oh, you're going to the miller.
[12:13] Baker
    Be careful not to get your flour stolen.
[12:16] Baker
    Come by my place if you want
    to turn your flour into bread.
[12:18] Baker
    I'll make some delicious loaves for you.
[12:20] Lawrence
    Yes, I'll depend on you at the time.
[12:26] Evan
    Oh, Lawrence, sir!
[12:27] Lawrence
    Don't call me sir. Is the mill currently free?
[12:32] Evan
    Leave it to me! I turn
    all the wheat in Tereo into flour.
[12:37] Evan
    This amount should cost about three Lute.
[12:39] Lawrence
    That's pretty cheap.
[12:40] Evan
    Huh? Really?
[12:42] Lawrence
    It's about three times more
    expensive in other places.
[12:45] Evan
    I thought it was really expensive.
[12:47] Evan
    Everyone in town really hates paying for it.
[12:51] Lawrence
    Everyone's like that no matter where you go.
[12:52] Evan
    Have you ever been a miller, Mr. Lawrence?
[12:55] Lawrence
    No, but I've worked as
    a substitute tax collector.
[13:00] Lawrence
    I collected butcher tax on meat, like pork.
[13:03] Evan
    There’re taxes on stuff like that?
[13:05] Lawrence
    The rivers get dirty when you
    clean meat and bones in them
[13:08] Lawrence
    and it also creates a lot of waste.
[13:09] Lawrence
    The tax is to pay for the clean-up,
    but no one ever wants to pay.
[13:14] Lawrence
    In the end, I had to beg and cry to
    get them to pay. It was really terrible.
[13:18] Evan
    I understand you!
[13:22] Lawrence
    By the way, didn't you say that all of
    Tereo's grain is turned into flour here?
[13:26] Evan
    Why, Mr. Lawrence? Did you want
    to do business with Tereo flour?
[13:30] Lawrence
    Well, that depends on the circumstances.
[13:32] Evan
    Then, you should give up on that idea.
[13:34] Lawrence
    Merchants are particularly bad about giving up.
[13:37] Evan
    Spoken like a true merchant! But the grains
    here all have to be sold to Enberch.
[13:42] Lawrence
    Does that mean that Enberch owns the land here?
[13:46] Evan
    We're equals with Enberch.
[13:48] Evan
    They buy our grains, and we buy
    everything except grains from them.
[13:53] Evan
    On top of that, we don't have to pay any taxes
    when buying alcohol and clothes from them.
[13:57] Evan
    Pretty impressive, right?
[13:59] Lawrence
    That's amazing, if it's true...
[14:02] Lawrence
    That's more than equal standing.
[14:04] Lawrence
    It's normally impossible to have such
    favorable terms with a town that big.
[14:08] Lawrence
    How in the world...
[14:10] Lawrence
    And, from what I heard, this village
    paid heavy punitive taxes to Enberch.
[14:16] Evan
    That's ancient history.
[14:18] Lawrence
    Is that so?
[14:19] Evan
    You want to know why?
[14:20] Lawrence
    Very much so.
[14:23] Evan
    Sorry. I actually don't know myself.
[14:26] Lawrence
    Hey, now.
[14:27] Evan
    But I know who was responsible for the change.
[14:29] Lawrence
    Father Franz, right?
[14:31] Evan
    Ah, uh, h-how'd you know?
[14:35] Lawrence
    It's just a merchant's intuition.
[14:39] Evan
    Th-That's amazing.
[14:41] Evan
    I knew you weren't
    an average man, Mr. Lawrence.
[14:44] Lawrence
    Flattery won't get you anywhere.
[14:45] Lawrence
    More importantly, is my wheat done?
[14:48] Evan
    Oh, that's right.
[14:55] Evan
    Make sure to sift it really well
    before you turn it into bread.
[14:58] Lawrence
    Got it.
[14:59] Lawrence
    By the way, I happened to see you this morning.
[15:02] Lawrence
    Looks like you’re quite close to Ms. Elsa.
[15:03] Evan
    Oh, you saw.
[15:06] Evan
    It's too cold to sleep here
    during the winter, right?
[15:09] Evan
    So, she lets me stay at the church.
[15:11] Evan
    We've gotten a little close...
[15:12] Lawrence
    She was pretty impatient with us
    when we visited yesterday.
[15:15] Lawrence
    Yet this morning, I was surprised that she
    looked as kind and gentle as the Holy Mother.
[15:21] Evan
    Elsa is pretty short-tempered
    for how timid she is.
[15:23] Evan
    On top of that, she is really shy
    with those she doesn't know.
[15:25] Evan
    She usually bares the fangs of a wild mountain
    rat when she meets you for the first time.
[15:29] Evan
    But it's been a while since
    she was in such high spirits.
[15:32] Evan
    You must have stopped by at a bad time.
[15:34] Evan
    She was quite happy by yesterday evening.
[15:36] Evan
    Oh, but she didn't mention that
    the two of you had stopped by.
[15:41] Evan
    She's the type who even tells me
    how many times she's sneezed that day.
[15:45] Lawrence
    That's probably because, in the end, I'm a man.
[15:49] Evan
    Oh. She's such a silly girl.
[15:52] Lawrence
    Well, I'm happy for you...
[15:54] Evan
    Well, Elsa really looked up to Father Franz,
[15:57] Evan
    so she's been trying her best
    to follow in his footsteps.
[15:59] Evan
    I'm trying to support her as much as I can.
[16:02] Lawrence
    Yeah, I can tell.
[16:03] Lawrence
    But I wonder what made her change
    her mood so drastically in half a day.
[16:09] Evan
    Why are you so interested?
[16:11] Lawrence
    My companion's mood changes more often
    than the weather in the mountains.
[16:15] Evan
    You have it tough, Mr. Lawrence.
[16:17] Lawrence
    I know.
[16:18] Evan
    But there's no use asking about that.
[16:20] Evan
    For Elsa, it's just that a long-standing
    problem had finally been resolved.
[16:24] Lawrence
    What do you mean?
[16:25] Evan
    Well...
[16:26] Evan
    Oops. I was told not to tell
    outsiders about it. Sorry...
[16:31] Lawrence
    Oh, no. If you can't
    talk about it, that's fine.
[16:33] Lawrence
    See you later.
[16:33] Evan
    H-Hey, Mr. Lawrence.
[16:36] Evan
    Well, is it hard to be a traveling merchant?
[16:43] Lawrence
    No job is easy in this world.
[16:46] Lawrence
    But, well, I'm enjoying it right now.
[16:48] Evan
    I see. You're right.
[16:51] Evan
    I understand. Thanks.
[16:54] Lawrence
    See you later.
[17:03] Lawrence
    Why don't we give up on finding the abbey?
[17:07] Holo
    For what reason?
[17:08] Lawrence
    Something is wrong with this village.
    It's dangerous.
[17:11] Holo
    So, you cannot risk danger to find my hometown?
[17:14] Lawrence
    You're saying it that way on purpose.
[17:19] Lawrence
    I'm guessing that the abbey we're
    looking for is actually the village church.
[17:25] Lawrence
    If that's true, the head
    of the abbey was Father Franz.
[17:30] Lawrence
    That means that Elsa and the village head
[17:33] Lawrence
    both knew that the priest was
    collecting stories about pagan gods.
[17:37] Lawrence
    Even so, they both pretended not to know.
[17:40] Lawrence
    Next, considering
    what people said in the tavern,
[17:43] Lawrence
    the Church isn't respected in this village.
[17:45] Lawrence
    The villagers worship a snake god here.
[17:49] Holo
    However, the people spoke of this Franz
    as a man the village owes a lot to.
[17:52] Lawrence
    That's right.
[17:53] Lawrence
    That means Father Franz
    did something for this village.
[17:57] Lawrence
    I found out what, when I spoke
    to Evan just a little while ago.
[18:00] Holo
    What did the boy say?
[18:02] Lawrence
    This village has an unequal
    contract with Enberch.
[18:06] Lawrence
    That's why the villagers can live so leisurely.
[18:09] Lawrence
    Father Franz was the one
    who negotiated that contract.
[18:13] Lawrence
    Then, we have to think about
[18:15] Lawrence
    why the relationship of this village
    and Enberch's church is so bad.
[18:19] Lawrence
    Enberch was trying to end the contract
    with the death of Father Franz.
[18:25] Lawrence
    This village worships a pagan god.
[18:27] Lawrence
    So, if Enberch can claim
    the village as a pagan village,
[18:30] Lawrence
    they can use force to attack the village.
[18:33] Lawrence
    However, Elsa and the others
    tried to think of a way to resist.
[18:37] Lawrence
    A notice came to the village
    head's house yesterday.
[18:39] Lawrence
    I'm sure a larger church or noble
[18:42] Lawrence
    has agreed to support Elsa
    as the church's successor.
[18:45] Lawrence
    Elsa was probably on pins and needles until
    now and finally got some room to breathe.
[18:49] Lawrence
    Even so, I don't imagine Enberch will give up.
[18:53] Lawrence
    So, why don't we stop?
[18:55] Lawrence
    Considering the situation,
    Elsa and the village head
[18:57] Lawrence
    will definitely continue hiding the existence
    of the abbey that deals with pagan gods.
[19:02] Lawrence
    And if, by chance, we get branded as heretics,
    the situation will escalate very quickly.
[19:07] Holo
    Listen...
[19:12] Lawrence
    Hey, Holo.
[19:13] Lawrence
    I want you to tell me clearly
    before I misunderstand again.
[19:17] Lawrence
    What are you expecting from
    hearing the tales of pagan gods?
[19:22] Lawrence
    Are you looking for the bear that, well,
    was said to have destroyed your hometown?
[19:28] Lawrence
    Or...
[19:29] Lawrence
    Are you looking for your friends?
[19:32] Holo
    If that is the case, what of it?
[19:35] Lawrence
    I may be willing to cross
    this dangerous bridge.
[19:40] Holo
    Then, it is fine.
[19:42] Holo
    It is fine. There is no need for you
    to brace yourself so grandly.
[19:46] Lawrence
    Holo...
[19:47] Holo
    If I could, I would slap that girl's cheek
[19:51] Holo
    and make her tell me what stories
    may have been left behind.
[19:54] Holo
    For exactly the reason you said.
[19:57] Holo
    The other reason is, I merely wish
    to know more about Yoitsu.
[20:01] Holo
    Do you not also wish to hear
    stories of your hometown?
[20:04] Lawrence
    That's true...
[20:06] Holo
    But it would be troublesome for me if you
    had to cross a dangerous bridge for that sake.
[20:14] Holo
    Your good nature is one of
    your few good points...
[20:18] Holo
    And it is also something a bit frightening.
[20:21] Holo
    Even if I stand here so lonely,
    you do not leap to devour me whole.
[20:27] Holo
    Truly, what a frightening male.
[20:29] Lawrence
    Something may look like sweet fruit,
[20:31] Lawrence
    but taste completely different
    when bitten into.
[20:34] Holo
    True, it could be unbelievably sour...
[20:38] Holo
    However,
[20:39] Holo
    are you saying I am not sweet?
[20:41] Lawrence
    Yes.
[20:42] Holo
    Oh, how brave of you.
[20:46] Lawrence
    Are you really sure it's okay to give up?
[20:49] Holo
    It is unfair to ask me that in such a way.
[20:54] Holo
    Of course, I wish to know more
    details about Yoitsu, my friends,
[21:00] Holo
    and that infuriating bear.
[21:02] Lawrence
    Yeah.
[21:03] Holo
    The story I heard from that bird girl
    in Kumerson was hardly enough.
[21:07] Holo
    It was like receiving only a few drops of
    water when feeling unbearable thirst.
[21:11] Lawrence
    What do you want to do?
[21:14] Holo
    May I ask something of you?
[21:18] Lawrence
    Leave it to me.
[21:21] Lawrence
    I'll take care of it.
[21:22] Holo
    Actually, I have an idea.
[21:30] Lawrence
    Are you serious?
[21:31] Holo
    There is no point beating around the bush.
[21:34] Holo
    You were the one who said
    I could ask you anything.
[21:38] Holo
    I want you to cross this
    dangerous bridge together with me.
[21:43] Lawrence
    But...
[21:43] Holo
    You said very dependably, "Leave it to me."
[21:47] Holo
    That made me very happy.
[21:51] Holo
    After all, I must grab your reins
    every once in a while.
[21:54] Holo
    Well, I will leave things to you
    if it does not end up well.
[21:58] Holo
    So, all I will do for now is grab your hand.
[22:06] Holo
    Now, then. Let us hurry and eat something.
[22:12] Lawrence
    Fine.
