[00:14] Student A
    Wow.
[00:16] Student A
    Huh?
[00:18] Student A
    Are you the new teacher?
[00:24] Elias (female)
    Oh, right.
[00:30] Elias (female)
    I am.
[02:10] Chise
    What do I do?
[02:12] Ruth
    Call for a doctor first, I guess.
[02:16] Ruth
    You're pretty strong.
[02:18] Chise
    I could probably lift one more person.
[02:21] Ruth
    That dragon curse isn't all bad, huh?
[02:24] Ruth
    Although it feels a bit creepy.
[02:28] Chise
    Are you all right?
[02:30] Chise
    Uh, you shouldn't flail around like that.
[02:37] Philomela
    L-Let me down.
[02:40] Philomela
    I'll be all right.
[02:42] Philomela
    Please.
[02:45] Chise
    Sorry.
[02:48] Chise
    Have you ever collapsed before?
[02:52] Chise
    If you know what causes it, you
    should probably take your medicine.
[02:57] Chise
    Are you anemic? Do you get
    headaches? Stomachaches?
[02:59] Chise
    Anything else that's bothering you?
[03:02] Philomela
    U-Um...
[03:03] Chise
    If you just need a preventative or if
    the problem's mild, tea should do it...
[03:07] Chise
    But you'd need to take it continuously,
[03:09] Chise
    and while it is effective, once you
    powder it, you need to consume...
[03:13] Chise
    I-I'm sorry! I got carried away.
[03:16] Chise
    I've picked up a bad habit from talking
    to customers back at the village.
[03:23] Philomela
    I get nervous quickly.
[03:31] Philomela
    Is there anything that can help with that?
[03:36] Chise
    Yeah, there is.
[03:40] Chise
    Here.
[03:43] Chise
    It's tea.
[03:45] Chise
    German chamomile, linden, and
    a dash of various other teas.
[03:50] Chise
    Also, here.
[03:52] Chise
    Potpourri.
[03:53] Chise
    Are you all right with lavender?
[03:55] Philomela
    I think so.
[03:59] Chise
    Lavender and orange are calming.
[04:01] Chise
    You can inhale it when you feel nervous.
[04:03] Philomela
    Um...
[04:07] Philomela
    Um...
[04:09] Philomela
    What...
[04:11] Philomela
    should I do in return?
[04:15] Elias
    When you do something for someone,
    you need to receive compensation.
[04:19] Chise
    Shoot...
[04:20] Chise
    I hadn't thought of what to
    ask for before I started.
[04:24] Chise
    Well...
[04:25] Chise
    Could you give me some feedback someday?
[04:28] Chise
    That'd be great.
[04:31] Philomela
    Th-Thanks.
[04:34] Chise
    You're welcome.
[04:36] Chise
    You should rest a bit longer.
[04:38] Chise
    Bye.
[04:43] Chise
    Oh, I forgot to ask her name.
[04:56] Veronica
    Philomela.
[05:01] Veronica
    There you are.
[05:03] Veronica
    The next class is about to start.
[05:06] Philomela
    Miss Veronica...
[05:08] Veronica
    Were you talking to someone?
[05:11] Philomela
    No.
[05:13] Veronica
    Oh?
[05:16] Alice
    That took you a while.
[05:18] Chise
    I couldn't find the training room.
[05:22] Chise
    Why'd you cut your hair?
[05:27] Alice
    I had to do it for the contract.
[05:33] Chise
    Will-o'-the-Wisp.
[05:35] Alice
    I don't know why it took a liking to me,
[05:38] Alice
    but it's not an offer that
    comes around often, so...
[05:41] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    She has a strong scent of fire.
[05:44] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    That's more than enough reason for us.
[05:47] Alice
    So he gave me this as a
    token of our agreement.
[05:51] Alice
    The pouch is woven out of my hair.
    And it put one of its coals inside.
[05:57] Chise
    It's pretty.
[06:00] Alice
    Yup.
[06:01] Ruth
    You used to call me a dumb dog,
    and here you are, lovestruck.
[06:05] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    Oh, please.
[06:06] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    I don't get easily attached like you do.
[06:09] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    I just like hanging out with this kid.
[06:12] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    It's fun.
[06:13] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    And I'm just keeping an eye on her
     in exchange for the good times.
[06:17] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    In other words, it's entirely transactional.
[06:20] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    I don't give away my life as
    if it's nothing like you lot.
[06:26] Chise
    As if it's nothing...
[06:27] Alice
    Oh, class is about to start.
[06:30] Alice
    You know how to get to your classroom?
[06:32] Chise
    I do not.
[06:36] Alice
    Here, this is it.
[06:38] Alice
    Okay, I'm off.
[06:39] Alice
    I'm in a different year.
[06:42] Chise
    Thanks, Alice.
[06:44] Alice
    You've cut back on some of
     that "I'm sorry" crap, huh?
[06:47] Alice
    I like it.
[07:14] Chise
    It was like this when I transferred, too.
[07:21] Chise
    Alice...
[07:22] Alice
    I was nervous at first, too.
[07:24] Alice
    Hey, if anyone gives you
    trouble, just punch 'em.
[07:30] Chise
    Thanks.
[08:05] Narcisse
    Morning, everyone.
[08:10] Narcisse
    It's the beginning of another
    year at the College.
[08:14] Narcisse
    You may have seen me about
    if you're a returning student.
[08:18] Narcisse
    I'm Narcisse Maugham.
[08:21] Narcisse
    Call me "Professor" or "Narcissist"
    or whatever you'd like.
[08:25] Narcisse
    We'll begin with our annual overview.
[08:29] Narcisse
    On the fundamentals of sorcery.
[08:32] Chise
    Sorcery.
[08:34] Narcisse
    To practice sorcery is to gain knowledge.
[08:37] Narcisse
    To master sorcery is to master
    a breadth of knowledge.
[08:44] Narcisse
    Our ancient ancestors gazed
    at the stars, read the winds,
[08:49] Narcisse
    told the future through fire,
    and searched through water.
[08:52] Narcisse
    They traveled the world, making
    sense of its countless rules,
[08:56] Narcisse
    making use of them and
    making them their own.
[09:00] Narcisse
    Some say sorcery is born of magic,
    but that's a bit of a stretch.
[09:07] Narcisse
    Others say it was born from the songs
    of the ancients as they hunted game.
[09:12] Narcisse
    Yet others say that it came about alongside
     metallurgy, medicine, and alchemy.
[09:17] Narcisse
    And still others claim it was created by
    those who harbored doubts about magic.
[09:22] Narcisse
    The commonality to all these theories is that
    it is to know the world and to manipulate it.
[09:26] Narcisse
    Everything in the world interacts closely.
[09:31] Narcisse
    Thus, to arrive at sorcery, you must
    work to heighten all of your senses.
[09:41] Narcisse
    Eyesight, the working of your
    organs, voice and sound, touch,
[09:48] Narcisse
    the twinkling of stars, the swaying of trees
    in the wind, the interplay of light and dark,
[09:55] Narcisse
    the dancing of flames on ores, the flow
    of water, the formations of the earth...
[10:02] Narcisse
    Observe everything. Note it down.
    Test it. Experience failure.
[10:08] Narcisse
    And strive for even the tiniest success.
[10:11] Narcisse
    The College teaches a novice
    sailor how to read the charts.
[10:16] Narcisse
    Be agile. Be bold. Be tenacious.
[10:20] Narcisse
    Only those who do not fear failure can
    arrive at the paradise that is knowledge.
[10:27] Narcisse
    Err, fail, and question often!
     And enjoy yourselves throughout!
[10:42] Narcisse
    Okay, that's the end of my usual greeting.
[10:46] Narcisse
    Our first class is a bore, to be honest.
[10:49] Narcisse
    We're studying Latin!
[10:52] Chise
    Latin...
[10:53] Chise
    I forgot that was a thing.
[10:55] Narcisse
    Oh, right, we have a mage who's
    a visiting student in this year.
[11:00] Narcisse
    Chise Hatori.
[11:01] Chise
    Yes.
[11:03] Narcisse
    As a mage and visiting student, you will
    not be required to practice sorcery.
[11:08] Narcisse
    Instead, you will be expected to have
    outstanding grades in your general courses.
[11:13] Narcisse
    Work hard.
[11:15] Chise
    R-Right.
[11:18] Veronica
    Hello, Miss Mage.
[11:20] Chise
    Uh-huh.
[11:21] Veronica
    I'm Veronica Rickenbacker.
[11:24] Veronica
    Nice to meet you.
[11:26] Veronica
    If it's all right with you, would you
    please show me your magic sometime?
[11:30] Chise
    I-I think I could do that.
[11:32] Chise
    Chise Hatori.
[11:34] Chise
    Nice to meet you.
[12:30] Alice
    You seem awful tired.
[12:33] Chise
    I've got something on my mind.
[12:36] Alice
    That sucks.
[12:39] Elias (female)
    It's time. Let's get started.
[12:43] Elias (female)
    We'll begin magic class.
[12:45] Elias (female)
    We're starting with the junior
    high school first-years, yes?
[12:47] Elias (female)
    I'm Elias Ainsworth.
[12:51] Elias (female)
    We may not have time to become
    well-acquainted, but let's make the best of it.
[12:55] May
    She doesn't seem much older than us.
[12:57] April
    I heard mages don't look
    like what they really are.
[13:01] Chise
    Right.
[13:03] Chise
    Sorcerers age like normal.
[13:06] Chise
    What about me?
[13:08] Alice
    I've always wondered...
[13:10] Alice
    Whose face is that, anyway?
[13:12] Chise
    I don't know...
[13:14] Chise
    I've been meaning to ask at some point.
[13:19] Chise
    Renfred-san.
[13:21] Chise
    Is he here to keep an eye on Alice?
[13:24] Chise
    Huh?
[13:25] Chise
    Why are you here, Alice?
[13:27] Alice
    Dunno.
[13:29] Alice
    I got called here.
[13:30] Elias (female)
    Magic is said to require more
    aptitude than sorcery does.
[13:35] Elias (female)
    Most of that aptitude comes from
    your compatibility with them.
[13:39] Elias (female)
    Do they like you?
[13:40] Elias (female)
    Do they hate you?
[13:42] Elias (female)
    Can you negotiate with them?
[13:44] Elias (female)
    It also becomes important to find
    a familiar who is cooperative.
[13:49] Elias (female)
    In practical terms, magic is a joint effort.
[13:54] Elias (female)
    Mages take in magic power
    from their surroundings.
[13:57] Elias (female)
    Sorcerers create magic
    power within themselves.
[14:01] Chise
    Wow... he's being a proper teacher.
[14:04] Elias (female)
    Both involve wielding magic power,
[14:08] Elias (female)
    so a sorcerer can use magic
    as long as they can negotiate.
[14:12] Elias (female)
    In theory, at least.
[14:14] Elias (female)
    But what's important is to try to
    understand them and their rules.
[14:20] Elias (female)
    You mustn't leave them
    to do everything for you.
[14:23] Elias (female)
    They aren't all-powerful.
[14:25] Elias (female)
    Though it may be difficult to
    understand them at the start.
[14:30] Elias (female)
    And so...
[14:36] Elias (female)
    I've asked for the cooperation of
    the "neighbors" in the College.
[14:42] Elias (female)
    It'll make more sense when
    you try it yourself.
[14:46] Elias (female)
    Listen carefully.
[14:47] Elias (female)
    Do not do anything to upset them.
[14:50] Elias (female)
    Exercise caution when dealing
    with those that aren't human.
[14:55] Elias (female)
    We'll start simply today, by lighting
    a candle and then blowing it out.
[15:00] Elias (female)
    If you have a hard time communicating with
    them, you're free to use your words.
[15:05] Elias (female)
    The intensity of the flame, the time
     for which you allow it to burn...
[15:09] Elias (female)
    Make it as concise as you can.
[15:11] Elias (female)
    Swayne, Hatori, please demonstrate.
[15:18] Alice
    I've never used magic before!
[15:20] Chise
    I've never done it in front
     of so many people!
[15:25] Alice
    Screw it, let's go.
[15:28] Chise
    Okay.
[15:35] May
    Swayne? Do you remember a Swayne?
[15:37] April
    I heard a fairy became a sorcerer's
    familiar for the first time in decades.
[15:42] Kevin
    I heard she can't even
    get a bird to fly well.
[15:45] Kevin
    My brother told me.
[15:46] Kevin
    Wonder what food she
     tried to train it with.
[15:49] Kevin
    Hot!
[15:50] Will o' Wisp
    Too bad there's no swamp here.
[15:54] Alice
    Enough, brother.
[15:56] Alice
    You'll make things worse.
[16:23] Alice
    What...
[16:25] Elias (female)
    Too extreme.
[16:27] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    You were kinda pissed, weren't you?
[16:28] Will-o'-the-Wisp
    I expressed it for you.
[16:31] Alice
    Damn it...
[16:33] Elias (female)
    Hatori, please.
[16:35] Chise
    Right.
[16:45] Chise
    Hello.
[16:47] Chise
    Ready?
[16:51] Chise
    It's a different color than the
    salamander in our fireplace.
[17:01] Chise
    Set it alight with your tongue of fire.
[17:03] Chise
    Set it alight until I give the sign.
[17:07] Chise
    In the color of the autumn
    sun over fields of wheat.
[17:27] Chise
    Thanks.
[17:28] Chise
    That's enough.
[17:33] Elias (female)
    Well done.
[17:35] Elias (female)
    I've prepared several candles.
[17:38] Elias (female)
    Try it for yourselves.
[17:40] Elias (female)
    But if they refuse, you will give up.
[17:44] Elias (female)
    You are aspiring sorcerers.
[17:46] Elias (female)
    You will lose nothing by
    being unable to use magic.
[17:50] Elias (female)
    Renfred, please keep an eye on them.
[17:57] Rian
    Hello, beautiful person.
[18:04] Fire Fairy B
    Thank you, handsome boy.
[18:06] Fire Fairy B
    But I don't want to work with you.
[18:08] Fire Fairy B
    I'm sorry.
[18:10] Fire Fairy B
    You smell rusty.
[18:15] Rian
    All right.
[18:21] Elias (female)
    It's friendly to her.
[18:22] Elias (female)
    She shows promise.
[18:30] May
    Please and thank you!
[18:33] May
    Hey!
[18:34] May
    Why not?!
[18:35] May
    What don't you like about me?
[18:37] April
    Stop, Brother.
[18:39] May
    Can't you help a guy out?!
[18:41] May
    You're just a lizard, aren't you?
[18:52] Chise
    Elias!
[18:53] April
    May!
[18:56] Elias
    That's why I told you to give up.
[19:20] Elias
    Chise, help the salamander calm down, please.
[19:23] Chise
    Okay.
[19:29] Sophia
    P-Professor?
[19:32] Elias
    I've been putting on that appearance to
    avoid trouble, but this is how I normally look.
[19:41] Renfred
    You're all right, yes?
[19:42] Renfred
    Now you understand why it's important
    to heed your seniors' warnings.
[19:45] Renfred
    Be careful.
[19:47] Elias
    You've now seen what happens
    when you anger them.
[19:52] Elias
    There are countless mages
    who've been eaten.
[19:57] Elias
    Raise your hands if you
    believe you have aptitude.
[20:03] Elias
    I suggest everyone else quit now.
[20:07] Elias
    You've seen why.
[20:09] Elias
    Now that you know how dangerous
    magic is, we'll call it a day.
[20:13] Elias
    If you'd like to learn more,
    I'll see you at the next class.
[20:20] Roy
    Scary...
[20:21] Roy
    Is he a muryan, too, like Miss Alexandra?
[20:26] Kevin
    You mean one of those people who was
    transfigured from experimenting too much?
[20:29] Kevin
    I'm amazed he's alive despite being bone.
[20:32] Kevin
    He must be about level three.
[20:34] Sophia
    I'm sure it's his magic.
[20:35] Sophia
    I never knew there were
    mages who become muryans.
[20:40] Sophia
    Beatrice?
[20:42] Beatrice
    Such a fine figure...
[20:45] Alice
    That was more exhausting
     than a good sprint.
[20:48] Chise
    No kidding.
[20:49] Alice
    I bet he's getting an earful from Master.
[20:53] Chise
    He got dragged off. Something
    about a lack of safety precautions.
[20:59] Alice
    This is the floor where
    the instructors gather.
[21:03] Chise
    I wonder where Elias is getting lectured.
[21:11] Chise
    He looks familiar.
[21:13] Chise
    Didn't I see him earlier?
[21:15] Rian
    Hatori.
[21:22] Chise
    Um...
[21:23] Chise
    Sorry...
[21:24] Rian
    It's our first day, and we
    haven't said hi. It's fine.
[21:28] Rian
    Rian Scrimgeour.
[21:30] Rian
    Call me Rian.
[21:32] Chise
    Call me Chise, then.
[21:35] Rian & Chise
    Nice to meet you.
[21:38] Chise
    I don't feel too tense around
    him for some reason.
[21:42] Rian
    I'll get right to it...
[21:45] Chise
    Yes?
[21:46] Rian
    As you're a mage, would you
     please teach me magic?
[21:52] Chise
    Huh?
