SIGN    Episode 24     The Duke, Alice, and the Curse Witch [01:33] Cuff     Okay, Ms. Ichi! [01:36] Cuff     Please train me! [01:39] Cuff     I want to get stronger and protect everyone! [01:42] Ichi     Gimme a light. [01:45] Cuff     And you shouldn't smoke so much. [01:49] Ichi     About 800 degrees, I'd say. [01:50] Ichi     Not hot enough. [01:53] Ichi     You can get hotter, right? [01:56] Cuff     I want to get hotter! [01:57] Cuff     I want to make flames as hot as the sun! [02:00] Ichi     Okay, for today's training, no using fire. [02:03] Cuff     Why? [02:07] Cuff     What's this? [02:08] Ichi     Right now, your fire wouldn't even help you. [02:11] Ichi     First, defeat it without any magic. [02:17] Ichi     You're quite the athlete. [02:20] Cuff     Come see me at the circus sometime! [02:44] Cuff     This is good exercise, but it's     not helping me with my magic. [02:49] Cuff     I'll do what she wants, but I don't     understand the point of this training. [02:56] Ichi     You think too much. [03:00] Ichi     Zain said the same thing. [03:01] Ichi     You look like you're not     thinking about anything, [03:03] Ichi     but in your own empty-headed way,     you're always thinking about others. [03:06] Ichi     Your kindness and caring are commendable. [03:09] Ichi     But in combat, they'll cost your life. [03:13] Ichi     When you're fighting,     don't think about anything else. [03:16] Ichi     Not your friends. Not your opponent. [03:19] Ichi     Not even whether you're going to win or lose. [03:21] Ichi     Empty your mind. [03:24] Ichi     Focus on your battle. [03:27] Ichi     And then you'll become hotter     than anything else in the world. [03:39] Ichi     But it'll take you a little     longer to realize that, I think. [03:43] Ichi     Training your mind will     strengthen your magic as well. [03:52] Ichi     And I've got high hopes for you. [03:59] Flea     Good morning, everyone. [04:01] Flea     I'm your instructor, Flea. [04:04] Flea     This is a wizardry school, but I'm a witch. [04:06] Zain     What's that pose? [04:09] Flea     A technique that allows me to look     almost identical to Brother Nico [04:11] Flea     by hiding everything but my eyes. [04:13] Walter     Please lose weight. [04:15] Flea     I will be teaching you     what's in your textbooks. [04:18] Flea     Please take notes. [04:20] Zain     Can't we just memorize them? [04:23] Zain     Why can't you just teach me how to control     my time magic instead or something? [04:28] Flea     If you pay attention in class,     you'll learn that on your own eventually. [04:32] Flea     I won't let you say no to taking notes! [04:35] Zain     Those awful jokes... [04:37] Zain     You really are trying to be like him. [04:41] Flea     Now, let's begin class. [04:56] Flea     A pop quiz for our young Death Incarnate! [04:58] Duke     Huh? Me? [05:00] Flea     Which of the following people summoned and     made a contract with the devil Mephisto? [05:04] Flea     A. A dog from my neighborhood. [05:06] Flea     B. Brother Nico. [05:07] Flea     C. Faust. [05:09] Duke     Um... [05:11] Flea     If you've been listening to     the lecture, this should be easy. [05:14] Duke     C-C? [05:16] Flea     That's right! [05:18] Flea     Wonderful! You're a genius! [05:20] Duke     Thanks, Alice. You saved me! [05:23] Alice     I always wanted to do something like this. [05:29] Flea     That's all for my lesson today. [05:34] Flea     Sister Ichi will be your     instructor for second period. [05:37] Flea     Go to her classroom. [05:41] Zain     My shoulders are so stiff! [05:43] Zain     I can't believe he's teaching us all     this really basic stuff about magic. SIGN    Zain. [05:47] Zain     What? SIGN    Can your time magic heal, say, scars on somebody's face? SIGN    Make it so they never happened? [05:57] Zain     I can't say for sure, but maybe. SIGN    I see. [06:08] Keto     Your sneeze is so cute, Daleth. [06:09] Daleth     Quiet. [06:13] Ichi     I'm sure Cuff already knows this, [06:15] Ichi     but I teach through actual combat,      and I'm a tough teacher. [06:18] Ichi     My goal is for you to learn how to operate     magical items in combat instinctively. [06:23] Viola     Magical items? [06:25] Alice     How do we use them? [06:27] Ichi     The point of this class is     for you to figure that out. [06:30] Duke     You're not going to tell us? [06:31] Ichi     If you can't figure it out, you'll die. [06:34] Ichi     Now, figure out a way to use your item. [06:36] Ichi     As soon as you've done that,     you're free to go on break. [06:39] Zain     I've got it! I can use     it for something naughty! [06:42] Ichi     No, moron! [06:44] Cuff     Then I'll... throw it! [06:46] Ichi     No! [06:47] Ichi     Don't let go of your weapon! [06:49] Zain     Ooh, I did get something naughty! [06:52] Cuff     Don't sound so happy! [06:53] Viola     I can't figure it out! [06:55] Duke     Do I push it? Pull it? Twist it? [06:58] Alice     I think I could use it as a hair ornament. [07:00] Duke     Even at a time like this, you're cute! [07:03] Ichi     All right, time for the lesson to begin! [07:10] Duke     Alice, watch out! [07:15] Alice     Your Grace... [07:16] Duke     Just hide under me! [07:20] Duke     N-No! No! [07:22] Duke     I'm not thinking of anything weird! [07:24] Alice     I haven't said a word yet. [07:26] Ichi     You there! Stop flirting! [07:28] Ichi     Figure it out already! [07:30] Ichi     If I was Sade, you'd be dead      30 times over by now! [07:33] Viola     But I don't understand! [07:42] Ichi     One of you figured it out. [07:44] Viola     Wow! Wow! [07:45] Viola     How'd you do it? SIGN    It reminded me of the hilt of my rapier... SIGN    The Face of a Man Who's Not      100% Sure What He Just Did SIGN    So I tried thrusting with it. [07:50] Ichi     That's right. It's a hilt. [07:53] Ichi     When you make a thrusting motion with it, [07:54] Ichi     the magic inside will activate     and turn it into a sword. [07:58] Ichi     Master it, and it becomes a powerful weapon. [08:00] Walter     All the things mother made me do every day... [08:03] Walter     I'm so glad I did them! [08:06] Ichi     I'll give you a reward, too. [08:06] Ichi     You can have it, second son. [08:11] Nico     They're all working hard. [08:14] Nico     If they keep this up, we'll be     able to strengthen our forces. [08:21] Nico     Was that... [08:26] Nico     Sade? [08:41] Daleth     We finally made it inside...     so where did Keto go? [08:47] Daleth     Wizardry books. How worthless. [08:50] Daleth     Human magic is all just copied from ours. [08:54] Daleth     Is this... [08:56] Nico     Who are you? [08:58] Daleth     What a strange boy. Do you want something? [09:00] Nico     Did you come back to life, Sade? [09:03] Daleth     He knows Sade? [09:05] Daleth     He's a wizard, from the look of his magic. [09:09] Daleth     Maybe I'll have him tell me a little more. [09:12] Daleth     That's right. [09:13] Daleth     I am Sade! [09:14] Daleth     I've come crawling back     here from the pits of hell. [09:21] Daleth     He can control space... [09:22] Nico     Damn you, Sade! [09:26] Nico     You killed so many of my friends... [09:28] Nico     I'll kill you again! [09:33] Daleth     His magic is a copy of ours, but it's strong. [09:38] Nico     Illusion magic? [09:47] Nico     What are you doing? [09:48] Daleth     It makes you mad, doesn't it? [09:50] Daleth     What do you mean, "kill me again"? [09:52] Nico     Did you lose your memories     when you went to hell? [09:55] Nico     You died over a decade ago! We killed you! [10:00] Nico     But I can't break the immortality     curse you put on me. [10:06] Nico     I can't even age alongside the woman I love! [10:09] Nico     I'll rip this illusion apart! [10:13] Nico     This is my school. [10:15] Nico     And I'm in charge here. [10:18] Daleth     She made her enemy immortal? [10:20] Daleth     What was Sade thinking? [10:24] Daleth     I have better things to do than fight you. [10:26] Daleth     Sleep. [10:32] Nico     No... [10:33] Nico     I c-can't let this illusion beat me... [10:39] Ichi     Snap out of it! [10:40] Nico     Ichi! [10:41] Ichi     I'll help you. [10:42] Ichi     No matter who they are,     don't fall for their tricks. [10:46] Keto     You can fight me! [10:49] Keto     Now it's two on two! [10:51] Daleth     Where did you go? [10:52] Keto     You're the one who disappeared on me! [10:55] Keto     But since you picked a fight with our boss, [10:57] Keto     now I'mma end you FR, FR. [10:59] Daleth     Use actual words. [11:01] Ichi     Is that really Sade? [11:04] Nico     I don't know. [11:05] Nico     But if we keep fighting any longer     it will put the students in danger. [11:10] Nico     Have Flea evacuate them all. [11:12] Daleth     Students? SIGN    Daleth! [11:18] Daleth     I'm not Sade. [11:20] All     You're saying that now? [11:23] Keto     I can't believe this school was made     by the people who defeated Sade. [11:29] Daleth     Yes. [11:30] Daleth     I just came to follow Walter. [11:33] Daleth     On that day, Sade vanished without a word... [11:38] Daleth     And she never came back. [11:41] Daleth     I don't know how I feel about this. [11:42] Keto     That's right. [11:44] Keto     I'm happy I get this cute uniform, though. [11:49] Daleth     It's just cloth. [11:55] Nico     I was on the fence about this, [11:58] Nico     but we've got two new students     who've asked to join our class. [12:02] Nico     They say they know you all already, though. [12:07] Keto     Viola, yay! [12:08] Viola     Keto, yay! [12:10] Keto     These uniforms are great! [12:12] Viola     Totally! [12:13] Viola     That's why I came here! [12:15] Duke     How do you know each other? [12:18] Daleth     I look weird. [12:19] Daleth     I look so weird. [12:21] Daleth     I look like I'm pretending     to be younger than I am. [12:23] Daleth     I'm over 150 years old! And I'm     wearing this indecent outfit... [12:26] Zain     You okay? [12:29] Nico     Now, let's start class. [12:32] Nico     I'm in charge of teaching you about Sade. [12:35] Nico     Teaching you about her will     help to break our curses. [12:42] Nico     Let's start with Daleth. Since you're here, [12:45] Nico     is there anything you can     say, as her younger sister? [12:50] Daleth     There's nothing I can tell you. [12:53] Nico     Okay. [12:54] Nico     Let me know if you change your mind. [12:56] Nico     Or speak up if anything occurs to you. [12:58] Nico     There's some things you     wouldn't want to tell me, [13:00] Nico     but you can tell your friends, I'm sure. [13:03] Daleth     They're not my friends. [13:07] Daleth     And he'll be more than just a friend... SIGN    If it bothers you, wear this. [13:15] Daleth     Th-Thank you. [13:17] Nico     Let's start with how we     beat Sade the first time. [13:36] Zain     This is a mess. [13:42] Zain     Okay, everybody's here. [13:46] Duke     Is it true, Zain? [13:47] Duke     That you're going to try going     back into the past tonight. [13:49] Zain     Yeah. [13:50] Zain     Meeting Sade directly will tell us a lot. [13:54] Zain     And with this group, even if we get caught,     we probably won't be in too much trouble. [13:57] Daleth     Do I have to go, too? [13:59] Zain     You're our guide. [14:01] Zain     I need you to come. [14:05] Duke     This is the door to the past? [14:07] Zain     Coming here has definitely made     it easier to control my magic. [14:11] Zain     It still takes some time to set up, though. [14:14] Zain     I was so busy today I didn't even     try to sneak into the girls' bath! [14:16] Duke     That's nothing to be proud of, right? [14:18] Zain     Anyway, let's go. [14:20] Zain     As I see it, Sade's probably     got big tits, too. [14:24] Daleth     He has magical talent, but he's stupid. [14:26] Duke     Daleth... [14:28] Duke     There's something I want to ask you. [14:30] Duke     Could Sade... read minds? [14:37] Duke     There wasn't anything else in the     logbook that could've mattered. [14:41] Duke     That's what you wanted to hide so     badly that you threatened Zain, right? [14:47] Daleth     I can't answer that. [14:48] Daleth     She still has me under her spell. [14:53] Daleth     That's why I want to be free of her. [14:55] Daleth     I'm only helping today for my own sake. [15:00] Duke     Let's get going, too. [15:02] Alice     Yes, Your Grace. [15:11] Alice     This is our family's home. [15:13] Duke     Yes. I lived here before I was cursed. [15:17] Alice     It seems we were separated. [15:20] Duke     If someone sees us, the future might change. [15:23] Duke     Let's hide [15:25] Zain     Did the rest of them make it here? [15:29] Zain     Hey, Daleth. [15:31] Zain     You okay? [15:32] Sade     Do I look like Daleth to you? [15:36] Sade     Yes, you're from the future! [15:40] Zain     Sade. [15:46] Daleth     Just like he guessed, Sade can read minds. [15:51] Daleth     They're both masters of the magical arts... [15:53] Daleth     How will Zain get out of this situation? [15:56] Zain     Wahoo! She does have big tits! [16:03] Duke     Where did they go? [16:06] Duke     It's dangerous to approach     Sade before we find them. [16:10] Duke     Even if we see her, let's     just watch from afar. [16:13] Alice     Yes, we'll just watch. [16:14] Alice     I love it when you watch me, Your Grace. [16:17] Duke     That was very cute, but... [16:20] Duke     Aah! [16:27] Duke     You're... [16:34] Duke     Grandfather Victor? [16:36] Sade     Do you have someone you love? [16:39] Zain     Huh? [16:39] Zain     The first thing she wants     to talk about is romance? [16:41] Zain     Love ain't my thing. I've never understood. [16:44] Zain     I'll make up an answer and run away. [16:46] Sade     I'm being very serious. [16:49] Sade     Don't you think love is a wonderful thing? [16:52] Zain     She's scary! [16:53] Zain     What's wrong with her eyes? [16:54] Zain     She'd be pretty otherwise... [16:57] Sade     For the first time in my     life, I have someone I love. [17:01] Sade     But death is coming, soon! [17:03] Sade     Do you know how much I love him? [17:07] Sade     I wanted to be with him forever, [17:10] Sade     but someone got in the way. [17:11] Sade     Everyone got in the way! Everyone! [17:15] Zain     Stop swaying like that! You're scaring me! [17:17] Zain     I know! Let's talk about something more fun! [17:20] Zain     Hey, how about something     naughty? Maybe a dirty joke? [17:23] Sade     You're in the way, too! [17:29] Sade     An illusion...? [17:35] Sade     Daleth... [17:38] Zain     So she doesn't like dirty jokes? [17:40] Zain     Thanks. [17:41] Zain     Don't tell Cuff. [17:43] Daleth     Start making a time door, now. [17:45] Daleth     I'll distract Sade. [17:47] Zain     S-Sure. [17:48] Sade     Daleth... [17:49] Sade     You were ugly, and I loved you anyway. [17:52] Sade     But the future you doesn't love me? [17:56] Sade     Your eyes are still full of     fear, like they always were. [17:58] Sade     I'll make you remember... [18:00] Sade     That I'm the Queen. [18:04] Victor     Grandfather? [18:06] Victor     I don't have any grandchildren your age... [18:09] Duke     Oh, um... [18:11] Victor     What? [18:12] Victor     Were you up to something naughty? [18:16] Victor     I don't have anything     worth stealing, you know. [18:19] Victor     Except all that money. [18:21] Duke     A noble's joke! [18:22] Victor     You don't look like robbers to me, though. [18:26] Victor     If you're lost as to what to do, [18:28] Victor     make the choice you won't     regret in the future. [18:31] Duke     Yes. Grandfather, um...     please be good to Sharon. [18:37] Victor     Oh, you know Sharon? [18:39] Victor     Shall I get her for you? [18:40] Duke     Um... [18:41] Alice     Thank you. [18:43] Alice     But we'll be on our way. [18:47] Victor     I see. [18:48] Rob     Oh, there you are, master. [18:51] Duke     The man with one eye! [18:53] Rob     Wow, do I have a cool nickname like that? [18:58] Duke     It was an honor to meet you. [19:00] Duke     Farewell. [19:05] Rob     Who were they? [19:06] Victor     I don't know. I've never     seen those children before. [19:08] Rob     You and your whims... [19:11] Duke     I didn't expect to run into Grandfather     Victor. That surprised me. [19:15] Alice     So that's what he's like. [19:17] Alice     I know I must've seen him     when I was little, but... [19:20] Duke     I just barely remember him myself. [19:23] Duke     But I liked him. [19:25] Duke     I remember I started to wear [19:26] Duke     this hat I found in the villa     because I wanted to be like him. [19:32] Zain     We're leaving! Sade found us! [19:38] Duke     Why so sudden? [19:39] Zain     I'll tell you later. [19:41] Zain     Daleth, hurry up! [19:47] Daleth     Sade is close! [19:49] Daleth     Close the door, now! [19:50] Zain     Can you say that again, in a cuter voice! [19:53] Daleth     I will break every bone in your body. [19:55] Sade     Wait. [19:56] Sade     Let me come, too! [19:59] Daleth     Stay away, Sade! [20:03] Sade     Alice. Sharon's daughter... [20:06] Sade     Disgusting girl. [20:20] Zain     Well, that was close. [20:23] Zain     That girl ain't normal. [20:24] Zain     You sure you can be friends with her? [20:28] Daleth     Let's just pray that meeting     her didn't affect the future. [20:35] Daleth     Though it doesn't seem     to have, for the moment. [20:52] Duke     Will we really be able to     talk things out with her? [21:03] Duke     I can't let myself get down! [21:08] Duke     I made my choice, right? [21:12] Duke     I'm going to be friends with Sade. [22:47] Duke     You okay, Alice? [22:49] Duke     You must've been scared back there. [22:51] Alice     No, I'm not scared of anything     as long as I'm with you. [22:58] Duke     When spring... comes... [23:05] Duke     No, never mind. [23:07] Duke     Forget it. [23:10] Duke     When spring comes... [23:12] Duke     I want to be able to hold your hand. [23:15] Duke     And... [23:32] Sharon     What a great nap!
