**[01:57] Sprite**
This is bad!
**[02:03] Torrey**
It's spewing fire!
**[02:05] Torrey**
I'd heard their fire-related organs
had become vestigial!
**[02:07] Chise**
Elias...
**[02:08] Elias**
It's an atavism.
**[02:10] Elias**
It's become like the dragons
you'd read about in fairy tales.
**[02:22] Chise**
Elias, he can still go home.
**[02:25] Chise**
He wants to go home!
**[02:26] Chise**
He has a place to go home to!
**[02:28] Chise**
Please, teach me how to help.
**[02:38] Elias**
Your selfish requests
are never for yourself.
**[02:45] Elias**
It's all right.
**[02:46] Elias**
That's why I'm here to begin with.
**[02:50] Chise**
Thank you.
**[02:57] Elias**
First, touch the dragon.
**[03:01] Elias**
That way, you can absorb its magic.
**[03:09] Elias**
And I'll absorb that
before your body breaks.
**[03:16] Chise**
Okay.
**[03:19] Renfred**
Alice!
**[03:19] Alice**
Right!
**[03:21] Alice**
We're going to draw the dragon's attention.
**[03:23] Chise**
Thanks.
**[03:28] Torrey**
Over here!
**[03:29] Alice**
Take this!
**[03:30] Torrey**
This way!
**[03:36] Alice**
Fire!
**[03:43] Torrey**
Merituuli!
**[03:45] Merituuli**
You naughty boy!
**[03:46] Merituuli**
We're going back home!
**[03:51] Chise**
Now!
**[03:53] Elias**
Here we go.
**[04:04] Elias**
By the base of its neck.
**[04:05] Elias**
There's a powerful flow there.
**[04:09] Alice**
Chise!
**[04:18] Torrey**
It's trying to go outside!
**[04:20] Adolf**
Merituuli, distract it!
**[04:22] ---**
Gah, jeez!
**[04:33] Chise**
This is bad!
**[04:35] Renfred**
It's going to cave!
**[04:47] Elias**
Chise!
**[04:53] Ruth**
Chise!
**[04:56] Ruth**
Damn it! Be careful!
**[04:58] Chise**
Ruth.
**[05:00] Elias**
Chise, are you ready?
**[05:06] Chise**
Elias!
**[05:08] Chise**
Ruth!
**[05:09] Ruth**
Right.
**[05:14] Woman A**
Huh?
**[05:16] Woman B**
The moon looks odd.
**[05:23] Ruth**
Chise, are you all right?
**[05:25] Chise**
Ruth, how's Elias?
**[05:27] Ruth**
Singed, but he's fine.
**[05:28] Ruth**
We're on our way.
**[05:29] Chise**
The river.
**[05:33] Ruth**
Wait, Chise...
**[05:38] Chise**
You don't have to come with me, Ruth.
**[05:41] Chise**
Go get the others and then come get me.
**[05:43] Ruth**
Chise, you better not be...
**[05:45] Chise**
It's okay.
**[05:49] Chise**
Let's go home together.
**[06:44] Ruth**
Idiot!
**[06:51] Elias**
Chise!
**[06:55] Renfred**
Hey, hang in there!
**[07:01] Elias**
Ruth...
**[07:02] Elias**
Where's Chise?
**[07:39] Joseph**
To think it escaped...
**[07:57] Chise**
Shannon-san...
**[08:00] Chise**
Why...
**[08:02] Shannon**
How do you feel?
**[08:03] Shannon**
Can you get up?
**[08:05] Chise**
I'll get up.
**[08:17] Chise**
Wow.
**[08:19] Shannon**
It might be tight, but don't take it off.
**[08:22] Chise**
It feels like it's going to burst.
**[08:26] Elias**
Chise!
**[08:26] Elias**
Chise!
**[08:28] Chise**
Angelica-san.
**[08:30] Sprite**
Jeez, you reek.
**[08:33] Shannon**
She beat you to her, loser.
**[08:44] Angelica**
I'd do the same to my own daughter.
**[08:47] Angelica**
I told you not to try to do
everything by yourself.
**[08:53] Angelica**
I already gave *him* an earful.
**[08:57] Chise**
I wonder what she did to him.
**[09:00] Chise**
How's the dragon?
**[09:01] Chise**
And the other people?
**[09:04] Elias**
Everyone went home.
**[09:06] Elias**
The dragon is sleeping.
**[09:13] Chise**
Thank goodness.
**[09:15] Chise**
Elias, are you burned or anything?
**[09:22] Elias**
You don't realize you're in
worse shape than I am, do you?
**[09:27] Chise**
Actually, not really.
**[09:30] Elias**
I know.
**[09:31] Lindel**
Well now, I can't let that lousy
explainer explain, can I?
**[09:37] Chise**
Lindel-san.
**[09:38] Lindel**
Your arm...
**[09:40] Lindel**
I've forced you into an unenviable role.
**[09:42] Lindel**
I'm sorry.
**[09:44] Chise**
I only did it because I could.
**[09:49] Lindel**
That's why this is so bad.
**[09:52] Lindel**
You've been cursed by the dragon's powers.
**[09:57] Chise**
Cursed?
**[09:59] Lindel**
It's going to fester in your body.
**[10:05] Lindel**
It'll attack, torment, and hex you.
**[10:09] Lindel**
No human body could contain it.
**[10:14] Lindel**
Sooner or later, your body will fall apart.
**[10:21] Chise**
How long will this body last?
**[10:26] Lindel**
I don't know. I'm sorry.
**[10:29] Chise**
I see.
**[10:35] Chise**
So...
**[10:36] Chise**
I've lived with two curses so far.
**[10:43] Chise**
I was forced to live with them.
**[10:46] Chise**
One is this, my Sleigh Beggy body.
**[10:50] Chise**
The other...
**[10:54] Chise**
As long as I live, it'll
probably never leave me.
**[11:05] Chise**
Taking on one more doesn't
seem like such a big deal.
**[11:14] Elias**
You're...
**[11:19] Chise**
He's angry.
**[11:21] Angelica**
Huh? That's him angry?
**[11:23] Lindel**
I'm sorry.
**[11:25] Lindel**
I can't ask you to forgive me.
**[11:26] Elias**
Please don't apologize.
**[11:30] Elias**
This is proof.
**[11:32] Elias**
That I was able to think of
someone other than myself.
**[11:41] Shannon**
You do have the option of
living on the other side.
**[11:44] Angelica**
But that's...
**[11:47] Chise**
I'll think about it.
**[11:48] Angelica**
Chise!
**[11:49] Shannon**
Are you sure?
**[11:51] Shannon**
You may cease to be human.
**[11:54] Chise**
I'm ready for the worst.
**[11:57] Chise**
I have to do what I can.
**[14:08] Ruth**
Are you sure you should be out?
**[14:11] Ruth**
You didn't tell anyone, either.
**[14:13] Chise**
I prefer the air outside.
**[14:18] Ruth**
How can you be smiling?
**[14:28] Chise**
When did you...
**[14:30] Elias**
Since you tried to leave from the window
and flipped around in the sky.
**[14:36] Chise**
That's from the very beginning.
**[14:40] Elias**
My puppy seems to have lost her mind.
**[14:44] Chise**
I was just pretending to be smart.
**[14:47] Chise**
Haven't I told you?
**[14:49] Elias**
You've forgotten to let me know when
you go out, yet you're still well-spoken.
**[14:55] Chise**
I mean, you didn't reply to me.
**[14:59] Elias**
I was straightening things out.
**[15:01] Chise**
All day?
**[15:04] Elias**
Yeah.
**[15:06] Elias**
You always try to go somewhere by yourself.
**[15:12] Elias**
Even though you always offer
me your hand and grip back.
**[15:20] Elias**
Even though you ask me to come home.
**[15:23] Elias**
And yet you're going to
leave me, just like that?
**[15:31] Chise**
It's not like I'm going to die right away.
**[15:35] Chise**
I don't think.
**[15:37] Elias**
How was I so optimistic?
**[15:39] Elias**
I knew this would happen to you someday.
**[15:44] Elias**
I should have stopped you, but I didn't.
**[15:48] Elias**
Somewhere inside,
**[15:51] Elias**
I'm still thinking that you're always going
to be in that home, going forward.
**[15:56] Elias**
That you would manage somehow.
**[16:01] Chise**
It's funny.
**[16:03] Elias**
What is?
**[16:04] Chise**
At first, we were only using each other.
**[16:07] Chise**
I never thought this would happen
just because we were together.
**[16:12] Chise**
Before this, I was sure I didn't want to live.
**[16:17] Chise**
But so many people helped me,
**[16:22] Chise**
and I found out that even I could do things
that are worth being thanked for.
**[16:28] Chise**
I'm not just waiting for someone
to tell me I'm welcome to stay.
**[16:32] Chise**
I started *wanting* to stay and
*wanting* to do something.
**[16:38] Elias**
Self-sacrifice.
**[16:41] Elias**
You think that by destroying yourself,
you can earn the right to be here.
**[16:46] Ruth**
E-Elias...
**[16:49] Chise**
I wonder.
**[16:50] Chise**
I don't know.
**[16:53] Chise**
I only did what I did because I could.
**[16:58] Chise**
I'm not lying, it's just that
there are some things
**[17:01] Chise**
about humans that we don't
understand ourselves.
**[17:04] Elias**
Really?
**[17:07] Chise**
Besides, your puppy is a stupid one.
**[17:11] Chise**
Her body seems to act before her mind thinks.
**[17:18] Chise**
Elias, will you help this idiot think of a way
**[17:24] ---**
that the two of us can stay
next to each other?
**[17:30] Elias**
I don't have the same ability to
take action that you do.
**[17:33] Elias**
But, I can go find out with you.
**[17:38] Elias**
Please take me with you.
**[17:48] Chise**
We have to find it.
**[17:50] Chise**
We have to think
**[17:52] Chise**
of a way to move forward.
**[17:56] Marielle**
Hello.
**[18:01] Marielle**
I'm Marielle.
**[18:02] Marielle**
Goatherder Marielle.
**[18:04] Marielle**
I'm what they call a witch.
**[18:08] Elias**
A transaction at the auction?
**[18:10] Marielle**
Yup.
**[18:11] Marielle**
I asked for the dragon's blood
in exchange for money.
**[18:16] Marielle**
It doesn't look like that'll work.
**[18:18] Chise**
I'm sorry.
**[18:21] Marielle**
You... Your arm...
**[18:28] Marielle**
I'm just going to take a look.
**[18:30] Marielle**
You're so overprotective.
**[18:34] Chise**
Marielle-san...
**[18:35] ---**
Ouch.
**[18:41] Chise**
Gleaming goddess of the land,
**[18:44] Chise**
snake-shredding god of storms...
**[18:48] Chise**
Lend us your hand, your eyes,
for the batting of an eyelid.
**[19:18] Marielle**
What is this thing?
**[19:19] Marielle**
It's so creepy!
**[19:23] Marielle**
A dragon's curse?
**[19:26] Marielle**
Say, do you have any interest
in becoming a witch?
**[19:30] Marielle**
Witches specialize in curses.
**[19:32] Marielle**
If you become one of us—if you join our
coven—we might be able to help you.
**[19:39] Elias**
No.
**[19:41] Marielle**
Do you really have the confidence to
tell a woman what to do with her life?
**[19:46] Chise**
Marielle-san, what do I need
to do to become one of you?
**[19:53] Elias**
Chise.
**[19:54] Marielle**
For starters, join our gathering as a guest.
**[19:58] Marielle**
Soon, if you can.
**[20:02] Marielle**
Open that when you're ready.
**[20:10] Marielle**
I'll be awaiting your reply.
**[20:14] Chise**
Goodbye.
**[20:25] Marielle**
Hello.
**[20:26] Stella**
Hello.
**[20:30] Marielle**
Unbelievable.
**[20:31] Marielle**
Such a young girl?
**[20:35] Stella**
Here you go.
**[20:37] Chise**
A card?
**[20:38] Stella**
It's an invitation to my birthday party.
**[20:41] Stella**
When's yours, Chise?
**[20:44] Chise**
Today.
**[20:45] Stella**
Today?
**[20:46] Stella**
What?! Where's your party?!
**[20:48] Stella**
Why aren't you holding a party for her?
**[20:50] Elias**
Par... tay?
**[20:54] Stella**
Jeez.
**[20:55] Stella**
Okay, next year.
**[20:56] Stella**
You better come up with some plans.
**[21:00] Chise**
Next year...
**[21:02] Stella**
What's wrong?
**[21:04] Chise**
I feel nauseous all of a sudden.
**[21:06] Chise**
I'm going to the washroom, so...
**[21:08] Stella**
It's okay, I just came to give you the card.
**[21:11] Stella**
Take care.
**[21:13] Elias**
Chise...
**[21:25] Chise**
All this, just as I'd decided
I don't want to die.
**[21:33] Elias**
Let's join the witch's gathering.
**[21:37] Chise**
You're okay with that?
**[21:39] (Flashback) Marielle**
Your apprentice might not
make it through the spring.
**[21:46] Elias**
It's fine.
**[21:48] Elias**
What matters more is to
take care of your health.
**[21:53] Chise**
Thank you.
**[21:57] Chise**
I have to think about my party next year.
**[22:11] Joseph**
A dragon's curse, huh?
**[22:15] Joseph**
Between my curse keeping me from dying,
and your curse leading you to death...
**[22:20] Joseph**
Things might work out pretty well.
**[23:55] Chise**
The reality presented at the witches'
gathering was a cruel one.
**[24:00] Chise**
The mage sets out to save the girl, but...
**[24:05] (A)**
The only thing that can replace
a life is another life.
