[00:03] Knight
    That was incredible!
[00:05] Mage
    That's our Holy Saint!
[00:11] Albert
    Though the swamp has been purified,
[00:13] Albert
    we need to continue monitoring it.
[00:15] Albert
    I'd like us to stay here for a few days
    to confirm the decrease in monsters.
[00:19] Albert
    Wolff, take our unit to patrol the area.
[00:23] Wolff
    Yes, sir!
[00:24] Yuri
    In that case, I'll join them.
[00:26] Albert
    I'd be much obliged for your help.
[00:29] Yuri
    It's nothing.
[00:35] Sei
    Um, what about me?
[00:38] Albert
    You'll stay with me.
[00:40] Sei
    U-Um...
[00:42] Albert
    I don't want to be too far from you
    after what happened.
[00:46] Albert
    I couldn't stand it.
[00:51] Sei
    My heart can't stand you saying that*!
SIGN    "Longing"
[02:35] Sei
    At the same time...
[02:37] Sei
    I feel bad waiting around doing nothing.
[02:48] Albert
    One last survey of the plants in the area?
[02:52] Albert
    You really are enamored with your work.
[02:55] Sei
    Well, I am a researcher at the
    Medicinal Flora Research Institute.
[02:59] Sei
    Sorry.
[03:01] Albert
    No, I don't mind at all.
[03:04] Albert
    Fret not. It is my duty to protect you.
[03:07] Sei
    Even if it's your duty,
    I still feel bad about it...
[03:10] Albert
    Apologies. I did not choose my words well.
[03:13] Albert
    It is not strictly about duty...
[03:16] Albert
    I just want to be by your side.
[03:19] Sei
    I-I see...
[03:23] Sei
    O-Oh! Lilac!
[03:32] Albert
    Is it a rare flower?
[03:34] Sei
    Somewhat. It usually blooms
    when it's a little warmer.
[03:39] Albert
    I see.
[03:43] Albert
    It has a very pleasing scent.
[03:45] Sei
    Right?
[03:46] Sei
    They say lilac has a relaxing effect.
[03:50] Sei
    In the language of flowers, it means—
[03:56] Albert
    What's wrong?
[03:57] Sei
    O-Oh, nothing! P-P-Perfume!
[03:59] Sei
    Yes, it's great to use as perfume!
[04:02] Albert
    Perfume? That sounds nice.
[04:05] Albert
    The smell is indeed very calming.
[04:10] Sei
    He wants to be by my side?
[04:13] Sei
    But what do I want?
[04:16] Sei
    I guess it'd be nice to get*
    a teeny-tiny bit closer to him...
[04:23] Sei
    Um, if it's all right with you,
    could I make some for you as a present?
[04:33] Albert
    I can't wait.
[04:41] Wolff
    Commander!
[04:44] Wolff
    I'm here to report.
[04:46] Wolff
    We've completed
     the designated monitoring period.
[04:49] Wolff
    There have been no new
     monster sightings in that time.
[04:52] Albert
    I see. Excellent work.
[04:55] Albert
    Then we shall prepare to withdraw.
[04:57] Albert
    Pass the order down to all units.
[04:59] Wolff
    Understood!
[05:05] Helmut
    Welcome back.
[05:07] Sei
    We've returned safely.
[05:10] Helmut
    Please.
[05:14] Claudia
    You must be tired from all
    the travel on your mission.
[05:17] Claudia
    We've prepared your rooms.
[05:20] Claudia
    Please take your time recovering.
[05:23] Sei
    Thank you very much.
[05:24] Claudia
    We have arranged for a simple
    banquet this evening.
[05:29] Claudia
    You can look forward to it.
[05:31] Albert
    Do you mean our customary one?
[05:34] Claudia
    Yes, that's right.
[05:35] Sei
    A customary banquet?
[05:37] Albert
    The Hawke Domain always hosts
    a banquet after a subjugation.
[05:41] Albert
    Since it's to thank our troops,
[05:44] Albert
    it's an open party where
    status and rank don't matter.
[05:47] Sei
    They don't?
[05:49] Sei
    Really?
[05:51] Albert
    What's wrong?
[05:53] Sei
    It's just that, in my experience,
[05:55] Sei
    status isn't wholly disregarded
     at such events.
[05:58] Albert
    Don't worry.
[06:00] Albert
    It's much more casual
    than a formal dinner party.
[06:03] Claudia
    The food will be rather simple as well.
[06:06] Claudia
    We'll serve game hunted in our lands
    and dishes featuring our local cheese.
[06:11] Sei
    Like cheese fondue or raclette?!
[06:15] Sei
    I can't wait to have some!
[06:22] Sei
    Sorry. I get greedy when it comes to food.
[06:49] Sei
    This really does seem informal.
[07:05] Yuri
    The food goes quite well with the wine.
[07:09] Sei
    I know!
[07:11] Albert
    I'm glad you're enjoying everything.
[07:13] Handmaid
    I highly recommend these.
    They're locally-made dried sausages.
[07:21] Sei
    It's salami! Salami!
[07:23] Handmaid
    There you go. Please enjoy.
[07:26] Sei
    I think I will!
[07:43] Albert
    Does it please your palate?
[07:47] Sei
    What? O-Oh, yes!
[07:49] Sei
    It's really good.
[07:52] Albert
    We'll be here for a while longer.
[07:55] Albert
    I'll ask them to serve it again.
[07:56] Sei
    Thank you so much.
[07:58] Handmaiden
    These sausages are sold in the town market.
[08:02] Handmaiden
    Why not go see it if you're interested?
[08:05] Albert
    Would you like to go, Sei?
[08:08] Sei
    Would that be okay?
[08:09] Albert
    Everyone is off tomorrow.
[08:11] Albert
    You can't go alone,
     but there's no issue if I go with you.
[08:15] Sei
    He's coming with me?
[08:18] Sei
    So the commander
    will escort me personally?
[08:21] Sei
    But doesn't everyone have the day to rest?
[08:25] Sei
    You'd be working on your day off.
[08:27] Sei
    As the commander, would you be able
     to take a different day of instead?
[08:31] Albert
    Not a problem.
[08:34] Albert
    Er, wait. That's not right.
[08:38] Sei
    He can't, huh?
[08:40] Albert
    I want to go with you, Sei.
[08:46] Albert
    May I?
[08:56] Sei
    I wouldn't say no...
[09:11] Sei
    How lively!
[09:13] Albert
    This is the largest market in the area.
[09:16] Albert
    The shop that sells those
    sausages is farther down.
[09:20] Albert
    Let's take our time to look
    at other places on the way.
[09:23] Sei
    Sure!
[10:00] Sei
    Wow, these are...
[10:01] Albert
    What is it?
[10:02] Sei
    Aren't these cabbages?
[10:04] Sei
    I haven't seen any in the royal capital.
[10:06] Albert
    Oh, now that you mention it...
[10:10] Shopkeep
    Are you from the capital, young lady?
[10:12] Shopkeep
    I can't believe you recognized 'em.
[10:15] Shopkeep
    These cabbages are only grown
     around these parts.
[10:18] Sei
    Um, I've had them before in the past.
[10:21] Sei
    Stuffed cabbage rolls are delicious.
[10:24] Shopkeep
    Exactly!
[10:25] Shopkeep
    The leaves are really sturdy.
    They're perfect for simmering.
[10:29] Albert
    We'd have stuffed cabbage rolls
    at home during winter.
[10:32] Albert
    Have you made them before?
[10:35] Sei
    No, I've never made them.
[10:38] Sei
    Though I think I could if I tried.
[10:41] Albert
    I see.
[10:45] Sei
    U-Um...
[10:47] Albert
    What is it?
[10:52] Sei
    I suddenly feel like having stuffed
    cabbage rolls after seeing these.
[10:57] Sei
    May I borrow a kitchen to cook some?
[11:03] Sei
    I really appreciate it.
[11:04] Albert
    No, don't mention it. I wanted some myself.
[11:09] Sei
    Yeah, I'd rather see him happy than sad.
[11:14] Sei
    What's wrong?
[11:15] Albert
    Well, I haven't eaten something new
    you've made before Johan in a long time.
[11:22] Sei
    Has it been that long?
[11:23] Albert
    The last time was in Klausner's Domain.
[11:26] Sei
    Oh, you're right.
[11:28] Albert
    Since then, I always hear of your creations
     from Johan's mouth first.
[11:33] Albert
    The Japanese cuisine you made
     last time was fascinating, but...
[11:36] Sei
    He's kind of cute.
[11:47] Proprietress
    Welcome!
[11:48] Proprietress
    Oh, aren't you the young master
     of the margrave's family?
[11:53] Proprietress
    Thank you very much for coming!
[12:00] Proprietress
    You've finally found a partner?
    Congratulations!
[12:03] Sei
    Partner? Congratulations?
[12:06] Sei
    Wait! No way!
[12:14] Albert
    No, she's someone I work with
    in the royal capital.
[12:19] Proprietress
    Oh my! Sounds like I jumped to conclusions.
[12:23] Proprietress
    I hope I didn't offend.
[12:25] Proprietress
    I'm very sorry, young lady.
[12:28] Sei
    It's fine. I don't mind at all.
[12:31] Proprietress
    How kind of you.
[12:33] Proprietress
    So, what are you looking for today?
[12:35] Sei
    I heard that you sell dried sausages here.
[12:39] Proprietress
    Oh, if that's what you're after...
[12:50] Albert
    And yet my heart is already set.
[13:05] Helmut
    So these are Lady Takanashi's
    stuffed cabbage rolls?
[13:08] Sei
    Yes. They probably don't look much
    different from what you usually eat.
[13:14] Claudia
    They smell a little sweet.
[13:17] Helmut
    Yes, but it's something I've smelled before.
[13:20] Sei
    I stewed the rolls with bay leaves.
    That's probably what you're smelling.
[13:24] Helmut
    They say that bay leaves
    can help treat joint pain.
[13:29] Sei
    Indeed. It's a medicinal plant
    that also can aid digestion.
[13:34] Albert
    That must mean that we can
    eat even more than usual.
[13:39] Sei
    That's no reason to overeat.
[13:51] Claudia
    Oh, goodness me.
[13:56] Sei
    This is a little embarrassing!
[14:10] Claudia
    That reminds me. You'll be staying here
     for a time, won't you, Lady Takanashi?
[14:15] Sei
    Yes, that is what I heard.
[14:17] Claudia
    In that case, why not visit our villa?
[14:21] Sei
    Your villa?
[14:23] Claudia
    Yes. It's in a grove some way from here,
    but it's by a lake with stunning scenery.
[14:32] Claudia
    The villa also has a hot spring.
[14:37] Claudia
    I heard that the mine
     excursion was hard on you.
[14:40] Claudia
    I thought you might enjoy relaxing
    in the spring if you had time.
[14:47] Sei
    Thank you so much!
[15:08] Sei
    Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow...
[15:09] Albert
    Are you all right?
[15:10] Sei
    Oh, I'm fine. Just feeling a bit stiff...
[15:15] Albert
    My apologies.
[15:16] Albert
    I had them slow down, but the
    carriage is still rocking quite a bit.
[15:21] Sei
    N-No, I've gotten used to carriage rides.
[15:25] Sei
    I'm just not used to how close
    we're sitting...
[15:30] Albert
    It'll be a while yet
    before we reach the villa.
[15:32] Albert
    Let's take a break here.
[15:40] Sei
    G-Good idea.
[15:51] Wolff
    Eat up!
[15:55] Sei
    Horses are nice.
[15:59] Sei
    Does everyone who works at the
    royal palace know how to ride one?
[16:03] Albert
    Most folks do, yes.
[16:05] Albert
    Almost everyone who aspires to work
    at the palace learns to ride.
[16:11] Sei
    Does that mean that not just the director
[16:13] Sei
    but even Jude and Aira know how?
[16:16] Sei
    Wait, Jude can ride a horse?
[16:18] Sei
    Jude can? Seriously?
[16:20] Sei**
    I mean, I don't know how...
[16:23] Albert
    Sei?
[16:24] Sei
    I'm sorry.
[16:25] Sei
    I was just thinking it'd be good
    to learn to ride a horse
[16:29] Sei
    since I work at the palace too.
[16:31] Albert
    Knowing how to ride a horse is convenient,
    although I don't think you'd need to very often.
[16:38] Sei
    It'd certainly be useful for traveling
    between the Institute and the palace.
[16:43] Albert
    I see. But if you did that,
    I'd have fewer chances to escort you.
[16:50] Sei
    That's...
[16:56] Sei
    He's teasing me!
[16:59] Sei
    Besides, I'm practically part of the military!
[17:03] Sei
    I think it would be good to learn riding.
[17:07] Albert
    Normal soldiers have to learn it, but...
[17:11] Sei
    I see. Holy Saints are special.
[17:14] Albert
    You won't be taking part in subjugations
    as much going forward anyway.
[17:22] Sei
    I guess you're right...
[17:25] Sei
    We've purified all the miasma swamps.
[17:28] Sei
    Monsters are on the decline now too.
[17:30] Sei
    I suppose I won't be seeing
    the commander much anymore...
[17:38] Albert
    Nevertheless, it would be nice to go
    on a long ride with you, Sei.
[17:44] Sei
    A long ride?
[17:45] Albert
    Yes. What do you think?
[17:47] Albert
    There are some nice places around the capital.
[17:50] Sei
    That sounds lovely!
[17:51] Albert
    Then it's decided.
[17:53] Albert
    I'll teach you how to ride
    a horse when you have time.
[17:56] Sei
    You'll teach me?
[17:58] Albert
    As long as you don't mind.
[18:00] Sei
    Not at all! I'm really looking forward to it.
[18:22] Sei
    My work as the Holy Saint is done.
[18:26] Sei
    It was over so fast...
[18:29] Sei
    Without purifications and subjugations,
[18:32] Sei
    what is left for me to do?
[18:42] Liz
    To be frank, your engagement.
[18:47] Sei
    Oh, yeah.
[18:49] Sei
    Social events. I have to
    participate in social events...
[18:52] Sei
    I know, my kindred spirit.
    I haven't forgotten.
[18:59] Sei
    But, honestly, the idea of getting engaged
    and then married doesn't feel real to me.
[19:06] Sei
    I just want to enjoy these
    fluttering feelings a little longer...
[19:15] Sei
    I'm having so much fun right now.
[19:19] Sei
    Okay!
[19:20] Sei
    Let's not worry about troublesome things!
[19:23] Sei
    Let's just think about fun stuff!
[19:25] Sei
    So then, I'll continue my research as usual,
[19:29] Sei
    but I'd like to spend
    more time on my hobbies...
[19:31] Sei
    I want to keep up tea parties
    with Liz and Aira, too.
[19:35] Sei
    Also...
[19:40] Sei
    I'll have Commander Hawke
    teach me how to ride a horse
[19:43] Sei
    when he's free back in the capital.
[19:45] Sei
    We'll go on long rides after I learn.
[19:48] Sei
    I can make sandwiches
    and we can have picnics.
[19:51] Sei
    I'll make big ones stuffed
    with herbed roast chicken.
[19:56] Sei
    I wonder if he'd like that.
[19:59] Sei
    And not just picnics. We could also...
[20:04] Sei
    Also what?
[20:08] Sei
    Huh? What should I do?!
[20:10] Sei
    This is bad! This is definitely bad!
[20:26] Sei
    Oh, I see.
[20:29] Sei
    So this is what falling in love feels like...
[22:11] Helmut
    Thank you for your incredible assistance.
[22:14] Sei
    I-It was nothing.
    I'm grateful for all your hospitality.
[22:19] Claudia
    We'll be in the capital
     during the social season.
[22:23] Claudia
    Do come and see us.
[22:26] Sei
    I certainly will.
[22:28] Claudia
    Al, make sure to visit sometimes.
[22:31] Albert
    Understood.
[22:32] Albert
    Please contact me when you're in the capital.
[22:36] Sei
    Their affectionate family banter
    makes me smile...
[22:43] Albert
    We'll be heading out now.
[22:45] Claudia
    Until we meet again.
[22:47] Helmut
    Truly, Lady Takanashi, thank you.
[22:51] Helmut
    I cannot wait to see you again
    in the royal capital.
[22:55] Sei
    I feel the same way. Thank you so very much.
[23:27] Sei
    And so, my duties as the Holy Saint
    came to an end for the time being.
