[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.
