[00:05] Anisphia
    S-So, uh...
[00:07] Anisphia
    We just gained a new friend today!
[00:10] Anisphia
    This is Miss Lainie,
    daughter of Baron Cyan.
[00:12] Anisphia
    Be nice to her, everyone!
[00:19] Anisphia
    Uh...
[00:23] Ilia
    Oh, do forgive me. This calls for tea.
[00:26] Ilia
    Please wait a moment.
[00:30] Euphyllia
    Miss Lainie...
[00:33] Euphyllia
    I've been informed of your circumstances,
[00:35] Euphyllia
    and I have no feelings
    on the matter whatsoever.
[00:42] Euphyllia
    But I'm sure it still weighs on your mind.
[00:45] Euphyllia
    I'm not sure if I should
    condemn you or forgive you.
[00:49] Euphyllia
    It's too complicated.
[00:51] Euphyllia
    I'm sorry.
[00:54] Lainie
    Please, no! There's nothing
    you need to apologize for!
[00:58] Lainie
    It was all my fault!
[01:00] Euphyllia
    Miss Lainie, did you put me in that
    situation with malicious intentions?
[01:05] Lainie
    No, of course not!
    I never meant any such thing!
[01:09] Euphyllia
    In that case, I cannot hold you liable
    for the misfortune you were born with.
[01:18] Euphyllia
    You came here for your own reasons,
[01:21] Euphyllia
    which left you in need of help, correct?
[01:24] Euphyllia
    Which means I cannot very well
    slap away these hands.
SIGN    The Magical Revolution
SIGN    The Magical Revolution
SIGN    of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady
[03:15] Tilty
    So this is the girl I've heard about.
[03:17] Tilty
    You have magicite in your heart, do you?
[03:21] Anisphia
    Tilty, Lainie is very sensitive.
[03:24] Anisphia
    Try not to scare her.
[03:26] Tilty
    I hear you've captivated
    many young noblemen.
[03:30] Tilty
    How did...
[03:34] Anisphia
    Huh? What's wrong?
[03:37] Tilty
    I see. If I hadn't been told in advance,
    I'd have been in trouble.
[03:41] Tilty
    Something made me feel
    sorry for her just now.
[03:45] Anisphia
    Oh, so even people with broken
    personalities are affected, huh?
[03:50] Anisphia
    Your fascination power
    really is amazing, Lainie!
[03:53] Lainie
    No, uh, I really have no idea what...
[03:56] Tilty
    So you're just activating it instinctively.
[03:59] Tilty
    It seems like inherent magic.
[04:02] Tilty
    Actually, I would bet...
[04:05] Tilty
    that's what it is, isn't it?
[04:07] Anisphia
    Ah... You thought so too, huh?
[04:11] Tilty
    There aren't many people
    with magicite inside them.
[04:14] Tilty
    There's no doubt about it.
[04:17] Tilty
    I'm going to go get that thing.
[04:27] Euphyllia
    What is that?
[04:29] Tilty
    A forbidden text.
[04:31] Euphyllia
    A forbidden text?!
[04:32] Lainie
    Um, what is a forbidden text?
[04:35] Tilty
    They contain records of dangerous
    ideas and techniques,
[04:38] Tilty
    so reading them is forbidden.
[04:40] Euphyllia
    What is something like that doing here?
[04:43] Tilty
    Miss Anis brought it here.
    I don't remember when.
[04:46] Euphyllia
    Miss Anis...
[04:47] Anisphia
    Uh, yeah, well...
    Let's put that aside for now.
[04:53] Anisphia
    This is a collection of research notes
    left by a magician long, long ago.
[04:59] Tilty
    That magician's goal was the
    pursuit of the truth of magic.
[05:04] Tilty
    But the path he followed was endless.
[05:07] Tilty
    He would never reach its terminus,
    even after spending his life on it.
[05:10] Tilty
    So the magician decided to make
    up for his insufficient lifespan
[05:13] Tilty
    by using the lives of others.
[05:16] Euphyllia
    But... how?
[05:19] Anisphia
    He used the power of magicite.
[05:22] Anisphia
    Not like my magic medicine...
[05:26] Anisphia
    but much more directly.
[05:28] Anisphia
    He embedded magicite that he'd
    stolen directly into his own body
[05:31] Anisphia
    and turned into a monster himself.
[05:33] Tilty
    And then he absorbed other people's lives.
[05:36] Tilty
    You ladies heard stories about it
    when you were little, didn't you?
[05:40] Tilty
    Stories of one who tricked humans
    to create more like him,
[05:44] Tilty
    who deceived people under
    the cover of night.
[05:47] Tilty
    The frightening monster
    spoken of in fairy tales...
[05:50] Tilty
    The vampire.
[05:54] Ilia
    Wait a moment. What are you talking about?
[05:58] Ilia
    Were we not just discussing
    the issue concerning Miss Lainie?
[06:01] Anisphia
    They say anyone whose blood is sucked
    by a vampire becomes a vampire.
[06:06] Anisphia
    But according to that book,
    it was actually a form of brainwashing.
[06:11] Lainie
    Brainwashing?
[06:13] Anisphia
    In other words, the way a vampire
    would create more like him
[06:18] Anisphia
    was to overwrite people's
    awareness to suit him.
[06:21] Tilty
    Our magician here had this thought:
[06:24] Tilty
    If he were to create plenty of extras
    who would inherit his ideology,
[06:28] Tilty
    and if one of them should arrive at
    the truth one day, that would suffice.
[06:33] Ilia
    How vile.
[06:34] Tilty
    A human using the power of magicite
    to manipulate people's thoughts...
[06:38] Tilty
    That's a story we've heard
    somewhere recently, isn't it?
[06:41] Lainie
    You mean I'm... a vampire?
[06:48] Anisphia
    Oh, well... maybe not so much a vampire,
    but the descendant of one?
[06:53] Anisphia
    The forbidden text says magicite within
    a person's body becomes hereditary,
[06:58] Anisphia
    so most likely, your mother's
    mother's mother's... uh...
[07:02] Anisphia
    I mean, if you could learn
    to control your own power,
[07:06] Anisphia
    that would actually be amazing!
[07:08] Lainie
    Would it?
[07:10] Tilty
    That sounds interesting. Let's experimen—
[07:14] Tilty
    I mean, start training you right away.
SIGN    You want to control the magicite's power, don't you?
[07:22] Tilty
    The flow of mana within you has stagnated.
[07:25] Tilty
    Try doing exactly as I tell you.
[07:28] Lainie
    O-Okay.
[07:38] Tilty
    Okay. Not bad for your first time.
[07:41] Tilty
    We'll stop here for today.
[07:43] Lainie
    Thank you so much.
[07:46] Anisphia
    Huh? Lainie, your eyes...
[07:48] Lainie
    Huh?
[07:53] Lainie
    H-Huh? What is this? My teeth...
[07:57] Anisphia
    Your teeth?
[07:58] Anisphia
    Whoa! Fangs!
[07:59] Tilty
    Well, Lainie?
[08:01] Tilty
    Do you feel like you can keep
    your fascination power in check?
[08:04] Lainie
    Oh... Yes!
[08:05] Lainie
    It's as if a fog I had within me
    just cleared up...
[08:08] Lainie
    I feel like I can clearly understand
    how to use my power now!
[08:13] Tilty
    The vampire magicite has been activated.
[08:16] Tilty
    Just as I thought.
[08:17] Anisphia
    Everything's up to you now, Lainie.
[08:20] Tilty
    In her case, having magicite within her body
    had become a matter of course.
[08:24] Tilty
    Leaving it inactive within her
    was actually unhealthy.
[08:28] Anisphia
    So now that the flow of mana
    within you has been activated,
[08:29] Euphyllia
    Those two are incredible.
[08:31] Anisphia
    you should be able to control it
    at will from now on!
[08:34] Tilty
    It doesn't feel as if Lainie
    is doing anything right now.
[08:37] Tilty
    Which probably means...
[08:40] Anisphia
    Euphie? Something wrong?
[08:41] Euphyllia
    No, nothing.
[08:47] Tilty
    Oh, right. I need to return
    this to the library.
[08:50] Tilty
    But I'd be bored going by myself.
[08:53] Tilty
    Miss Anis, I'm going to borrow
    Lady Euphyllia for a bit.
[08:57] Anisphia/Euphyllia
    Huh?
[09:04] Tilty
    Well...
[09:06] Tilty
    So?
[09:07] Euphyllia
    Huh?
[09:08] Tilty
    You were giving me quite
    a serious look back there.
[09:13] Tilty
    Is there something you'd like to say to me?
[09:16] Euphyllia
    Uh, not particularly...
[09:18] Tilty
    Are you jealous?
[09:22] Tilty
    Wait, what's her deal?
    Does she not even realize it?
[09:26] Euphyllia
    Is that how I looked?
[09:29] Tilty
    I'd like to know what else
    it could have looked like.
[09:33] Euphyllia
    I see.
[09:35] Euphyllia
    So I was jealous.
[09:40] Tilty
    Ugh, you're such a pain to deal with!
[09:44] Tilty
    Just what are you to Miss Anis?
[09:47] Euphyllia
    I'm... her assistant.
[09:49] Tilty
    I'm asking if you really see
    yourself as her assistant!
[09:56] Tilty
    Oh, don't make that face at me.
[09:59] Tilty
    You make it look like I'm the bad guy.
[10:02] Tilty
    The reason Miss Anis
    took you as her assistant
[10:05] Tilty
    was to restore your lost honor, was it not?
[10:08] Tilty
    She achieved that goal when she defeated
    the dragon, and on top of that,
[10:13] Tilty
    she went on to solve the mystery
    of Lainie and the strife she caused.
[10:17] Tilty
    So what reason do you have
    to continue being her assistant?
[10:21] Euphyllia
    I...
[10:23] Tilty
    It's not as if I'm trying
    to take away your role.
[10:26] Tilty
    I help Miss Anis because I find her
    magicology and magic tools fascinating,
[10:32] Tilty
    but I have no intention of going along with
    her foolish dream of becoming a magician.
[10:38] Euphyllia
    Really?
[10:40] Tilty
    Enough talking about me.
[10:42] Tilty
    I'm asking about you.
[10:45] Euphie
    What... about me?
[10:47] Tilty
    For instance, when Prince Algard
    becomes the next king,
[10:51] Tilty
    he might exile Miss Anis to the remote
    borderlands out of prejudice against her.
[10:57] Tilty
    Would you be able to accompany her?
[11:01] Tilty
    Of course. You can't give an immediate
    answer in the heat of the moment.
[11:05] Tilty
    What you say and do steers the fate
    of the Magenta family, after all.
[11:12] Tilty
    Miss Anis is a heretic.
[11:14] Tilty
    If you stand by her with half-hearted
    intentions, you'll regret it.
[11:17] Tilty
    I suggest you give it some serious thought.
[11:22] Euphyllia
    You're right.
[11:34] Euphyllia
    Come in.
[11:38] Euphyllia
    Miss Anis?
[11:40] Euphyllia
    Is something wrong?
[11:41] Anisphia
    Huh? Oh, I don't really need anything...
[11:46] Anisphia
    I just thought you seemed kind of down.
[11:56] Anisphia
    What were you up to, Euphie?
[11:59] Euphyllia
    Well, I suppose...
[12:01] Euphyllia
    I was thinking about the future.
[12:03] Anisphia
    What does that mean?
[12:06] Euphyllia
    Now that things have started to calm down,
[12:09] Euphyllia
    I was pondering what comes next.
[12:12] Anisphia
    I see.
[12:14] Euphyllia
    I don't want to be half-hearted.
[12:17] Anisphia
    Huh? What'd you say?
[12:19] Euphyllia
    Nothing at all.
[12:23] Euphyllia
    I was...
[12:25] Euphyllia
    I was just wondering what it is
    I really want to do.
[12:31] Anisphia
    Did you find your answer?
[12:35] Euphyllia
    Why do you like magic so much?
[12:39] Anisphia
    Well, that came out of nowhere.
[12:41] Anisphia
    Hmm... All I can really say
    is because I like it.
[12:46] Anisphia
    It's like being in love, I think.
    Not that I'd know.
[12:51] Euphyllia
    I want to fall in love like that, too.
[12:56] Anisphia
    Hey, Euphie... Can I sleep in here tonight?
[13:12] Lainie
    U-Um...
[13:19] Ilia
    Miss Lainie, is something the matter?
[13:21] Lainie
    W-Well... I just, um...
[13:25] Lainie
    Can I...
[13:27] Lainie
    ask for your help again?
[13:34] Ilia
    I don't mind.
[13:35] Ilia
    Go ahead.
[13:40] Tilty
    An impulse to drink blood?
[13:42] Lainie
    Yes.
[13:43] Anisphia
    Well, we did activate
    the magicite inside her.
[13:48] Anisphia
    I think that makes her consume
    more mana than before.
[13:52] Anisphia
    And when her body feels low on mana,
[13:54] Anisphia
    it manifests in the form of
    an impulse to drink blood.
[13:57] Tilty
    Leave it to a vampire.
[13:59] Tilty
    So she can take the mana from other
    people's blood and make it her own.
[14:03] Tilty
    Have you let her drink any?
[14:06] Lainie
    Yes, Ilia has.
[14:09] Anisphia
    We offered ours, too, but she told us
    to remember our positions.
[14:15] Lainie
    I am truly grateful to Miss Ilia.
[14:20] Ilia
    Princess.
[14:22] Anisphia
    Oh, Ilia.
[14:23] Anisphia
    Wait, what's wrong? Why the dark look?
[14:27] Ilia
    I just received this.
[14:30] Ilia
    It's from the Ministry of the Arcane.
[14:33] Anisphia
    Ugh...
[14:35] Anisphia
    What a pain.
[14:36] Tilty
    What did that garbage ministry say?
[14:39] Ilia
    They want Miss Anis to give a lecture.
[14:43] Lainie
    A lecture? That's amazing, Miss Anis!
[14:47] Anisphia
    Oh, it's not that kind of thing.
[14:49] Anisphia
    Basically, they want me to explain
    in front of a bunch of people
[14:53] Anisphia
    what I plan to do with the
    materials from the dragon.
[14:55] Euphyllia
    Really?
[15:01] Euphyllia
    This is quite an aggressive letter.
[15:04] Anisphia
    Right? Who wants anything to do with that?
[15:06] Lainie
    U-Um...
[15:08] Tilty
    The elites in the Ministry of
    the Arcane value tradition.
[15:12] Tilty
    They're not fond of the princess's
    magicology and magic tools.
[15:15] Anisphia
    They say it's not in line
    with belief in the spirits,
[15:18] Anisphia
    and that it'll be a negative
    influence on the people.
[15:20] Anisphia
    They just want to find fault with me
    and take all my materials again.
[15:27] Tilty
    So what are you going to do?
[15:29] Tilty
    If you refuse to do the lecture
    because it's a hassle,
[15:31] Tilty
    it'll just raise undue suspicions
    and lead to more nasty rumors.
[15:37] Tilty
    And it won't just be you.
[15:38] Tilty
    All those close to you will suffer for it.
[15:42] Anisphia
    I don't want that.
[15:44] Anisphia
    That said, though...
[15:45] Anisphia
    What should I do?
    That dragon's materials are valuable.
[15:49] Anisphia
    I don't want to lose a single one of them.
[15:53] Anisphia
    Okay! I'll just have to come up
    with a new product
[15:56] Anisphia
    that'll convince even
    the Ministry of the Arcane!
[15:59] Ilia
    Would those people be convinced
    by anything a heretic princess says?
[16:05] Anisphia
    Good point.
[16:06] Anisphia
    Ugh, damn that Ministry of the Arcane!
[16:10] Euphyllia
    Miss Anis...
[16:13] Euphyllia
    Could you leave this matter to me?
[16:15] Anisphia
    Huh?
[16:40] Anisphia
    Greetings, ladies and gentlemen.
[16:41] Anisphia
    I am Anisphia Wynn Palettia,
    your speaker for today.
[16:48] Tilty
    Oh, dear. Not a very receptive crowd.
[16:51] Anisphia
    No kidding.
[16:54] Anisphia
    I will now give my presentation
    explaining how I intend
[16:57] Anisphia
    to use the materials
    from the dragon I defeated.
[17:00] Anisphia
    However...
[17:02] Anisphia
    Before I get started, I'd like you
    to take a look at this magic tool.
[17:06] Ministry Official A
    A magic tool? Part of that shady
    business you call "magicology"?
[17:10] Ministry Official B
    Isn't mimicry of magic
    sacrilege against the spirits?
[17:14] Anisphia
    This is my Witch's Broom,
[17:16] Anisphia
    a tool of flight that I invented
    using magicology.
[17:20] Anisphia
    Using this, we can venture into the
    unexplored territory we know as the sky.
[17:25] Ministry Official C
    Who would use such a thing other
    than the mad princess? Ridiculous!
[17:30] Ministry Official D
    A princess who can't even use magic
    is truly unworthy of our time.
[17:35] Anisphia
    Wow...
[17:37] Anisphia
    These old geezers aren't going to do
    anything but find fault with me.
[17:40] Euphyllia
    Miss Anis.
[17:48] Euphyllia
    I am Princess Anisphia's assistant,
[17:51] Euphyllia
    Euphyllia Magenta.
[17:53] Euphyllia
    From this point onward, I will interject
    my own opinions as a magician.
[17:59] Moritz
    The genius daughter of Duke Magenta?
[18:04] Euphyllia
    As you all know,
[18:06] Euphyllia
    the power of flight is exceedingly
    difficult to both acquire and master.
[18:10] Euphyllia
    It has long been accepted that
    not just anyone can freely fly.
[18:15] Euphyllia
    But magic tools of flight make that possible.
[18:19] Euphyllia
    I say this as one who has seen
    Her Highness's research up close.
[18:23] NobleA
    Anyone can fly, eh?
[18:25] NobleB
    Hmm, how very intriguing.
[18:28] Euphyllia
    This Witch's Broom has already been put
    to practical use by its inventor.
[18:34] Euphyllia
    However...
[18:36] Euphyllia
    This shape is unacceptable.
[18:38] Euphyllia
    It seems to reflect its inventor's tastes,
[18:40] Euphyllia
    but it is problematic
    from a safety perspective.
[18:43] Anisphia
    What? But brooms are what
    witches are supposed to fly on.
[18:47] Tilty
    Where is that "normal"?
[18:49] Euphyllia
    Therefore, Her Highness set out
    to develop a more versatile magic tool.
[18:55] Euphyllia
    Please take a look at this.
[18:59] NobleA
    What is that?
[19:00] Euphyllia
    She calls it the "Airdra," representing
    the concept of flying like a dragon.
[19:06] Euphyllia
    With this, the pilot's body is as stable
    as if they were riding a horse,
[19:10] Euphyllia
    making it completely maneuverable and safe.
[19:13] Euphyllia
    If her research progresses
    to the point of mass production,
[19:16] Euphyllia
    our kingdom's transportation network
    will advance by leaps and bounds,
[19:20] Euphyllia
    bringing with it the potential
    for immense economic growth.
[19:24] NobleA
    If that's the case...
[19:26] NobleB
    We can't disregard this research.
[19:29] Euphyllia
    In order to produce the Airdra,
[19:31] Euphyllia
    the materials from the
    dragon are indispensable.
[19:34] Tilty
    Well, obviously.
[19:34] Euphyllia
    The Airdra's unique structure
[19:35] Tilty
    You came up with this tool specifically to
    stop the dragon materials from being taken.
[19:36] Euphyllia
    was inspired by the inherent
    magic that dragons use
[19:40] Euphyllia
    to keep their enormous bodies airborne.
[19:40] Anisphia
    Shut up, Tilty.
[19:43] Euphyllia
    And as you all know,
[19:45] Euphyllia
    different parts of a dragon act as catalysts
    for different types of magic,
[19:50] Ministry Official A
    It does make sense.
[19:51] Euphyllia
    so each of those materials
    plays a part in guaranteeing
[19:53] Ministry Official B
    But in the face of the
    ancient faith in the spirits...
[19:55] Euphyllia
    the speed and safety of
    each part of the Airdra.
[19:58] Euphyllia
    This concludes my explanation of the
    intended use of the dragon's materials.
[20:04] Tilty
    That wasn't too bad.
[20:05] Anisphia
    Yeah. That's my Euphie.
[20:08] Euphyllia
    However...
[20:10] Euphyllia
    I fear that the Ministry
    of the Arcane may view
[20:14] Euphyllia
    such revolutionary research as sacrilege
    to the spirits and the gods.
[20:19] Moritz
    Wh-What?!
[20:21] Chartreuse
    It absolutely is sacrilege!
[20:23] Anisphia
    Huh?
[20:24] Tilty
    Wow, you're pushing that far?
[20:27] Anisphia
    No, I didn't ask her to!
[20:29] Tilty
    Oh, this was her own decision?
[20:31] Tilty
    Quite the assistant you've got there.
[20:36] Euphyllia
    Knowledge of the world,
    of reason, and of magic—
[20:40] Euphyllia
    from a combination of these,
    magicology is born.
[20:43] Euphyllia
    It is a field of study,
[20:45] Euphyllia
    not a practice intended to show
    disrespect to faith or tradition.
[20:49] Euphyllia
    It is true that the Her Highness's magicology
[20:52] Euphyllia
    is a bold concept unlike any presently known
    to us, and may appear incomprehensible.
[20:58] Euphyllia
    But that is simply an expression
    of respect toward the spirits.
[21:04] Euphyllia
    No, in fact, it came to be only
    because of that faith and tradition.
[21:14] Euphyllia
    It is not due to a lack of talent
    that Her Highness
[21:17] Euphyllia
    did not receive the spirits' blessing.
[21:20] Euphyllia
    It is because the spirits
    recognized the talents she has.
[21:24] Euphyllia
    That is what I want you all to understand.
[21:26] Anisphia
    Euphie...
[21:27] Euphyllia
    I believe that now is the time
    for us to walk in step with change.
[21:33] Euphyllia
    I would like all of us to strive
    for the future together,
[21:36] Euphyllia
    along with the foundations
    with which we have come this far.
[21:40] Euphyllia
    My only wish is that today will be the
    first step toward that wonderful future.
[21:58] Anisphia
    Thank you, Euphie.
