[00:18] Butler     With pleasure, sir. [00:23] Marquis Drewes     I wonder if that boy will heed me. [00:27] Butler     I cannot say... [00:30] Marquis Drewes     He's an eccentric one, after all. [00:34] Marquis Drewes     However, if all goes well, [00:37] Marquis Drewes     we will become powerful enough     to stand against the Hawkes. SIGN    "Theatergoing" [02:21] Siegfried     It's finally over... [02:23] Dominic     Yes, according to the reports      from the knights, [02:27] Dominic     the monster population in our kingdom     has now returned to normal. [02:32] Siegfried     This all seemed so long, yet so short. [02:35] Dominic     I believe that is thanks to Lady Sei. [02:39] Siegfried     Thus the duties of the Holy Saint     are concluded for the time being. [02:44] Dominic     Making panaceas, researching medicinal      plants, and creating new recipes... [02:48] Dominic     She has business in many areas. [02:50] Siegfried     We performed the Saint-summoning ritual     in order to purify the miasma. [02:56] Siegfried     We cannot force any duties     upon her beyond that. [03:00] Dominic     That said, I believe Lady Sei herself     may be wanting of something to call a "mission." [03:11] Siegfried     A mission, you say? [03:16] Siegfried     Do you recall the time we went out      on a little boat to go fishing long ago? [03:23] Dominic     That was back when you were      still just a prince. [03:26] Siegfried     You said that you'd go fishing     all day long once you retired. [03:33] Dominic     I remember. [03:36] Siegfried     What do you think? [03:37] Siegfried     Let's say the two of us retire tomorrow. [03:41] Siegfried     Will you go fishing with me again? [03:45] Dominic     To tell you the truth... [03:48] Dominic     I've no doubt I'd bring      in twice the haul you did. [03:51] Siegfried     Well, I'd bring in one that's much bigger     than anything you can catch. [03:55] Dominic     We said similar things in the past. [03:59] Dominic     And how did that turn out? [04:04] Siegfried     Now you're asking for it! [04:13] Dominic     I do recall dreaming of such a future. [04:17] Dominic     It feels like the dream grows     more distant as the years pass... [04:22] Dominic     It no longer sounds realistic at all. [04:25] Siegfried     It seems we've been too caught up     in our own so-called mission. [04:31] Dominic     As the king should be, in my opinion. [04:34] Siegfried     However, Lady Sei's life continues after this. [04:40] Siegfried     Once she achieves complete freedom, [04:42] Siegfried     will she be able to grasp     the things that she loves? [05:02] Yuri     So sleepy... [05:07] Aira     Excuse me. [05:14] Aira     U-Um, the Magus requests     immediate approval of a few things [05:19] Aira     and gave me these documents to deliver. [05:23] Yuri     I'm busy right now,     so I'll go through them later. [05:27] Yuri     It's fine, it's fine. [05:29] Yuri     Erh always overexaggerates. [05:32] Aira     B-But... [05:34] Yuri     I'm sure he's the only one who     understands the documents anyways. [05:39] Aira     But, well, speaking of... [05:44] Erhart     Just who are you talking about? [05:48] Yuri     Could it be that you came to help? [05:51] Yuri     The documents are really piling up. [05:54] Erhart     Don't act spoiled. [05:55] Erhart     I just came to make sure you're working. [05:58] Yuri     I am, I am. [06:00] Yuri     I've been sacrificing sleep      for magic research. [06:04] Erhart     I was talking about the paperwork. [06:10] Aira     Um, what's this? [06:13] Yuri     Oh, that. [06:15] Yuri     You taught me how to make those, remember? [06:17] Yuri     I can't get them to fly very well. [06:20] Aira     I'm not talking about that. [06:21] Aira     This looks really important... [06:25] Yuri     I'm busy right now, so I'll look at it later. [06:38] Erhart     An invitation to a play? [06:40] Aira     An invitation? [06:42] Yuri     A gift of sorts. [06:44] Yuri     Except I'd rather be working     than going to a play I don't care about. [06:50] Erhart     That's because your research      might as well be your hobby. [06:54] Aira     I had no idea play invitations      were so gorgeous. [06:58] Aira     I'd never seen one before. [07:00] Erhart     Were there no theaters in your homeland? [07:04] Aira     No, there were a lot of them! [07:07] Aira     It's just my first time seeing      a ticket like this. [07:10] Aira     Oh, not that I know very much about them. [07:14] Erhart     Well, this is probably a patron's invitation. [07:17] Aira     Patron? [07:19] Erhart     A reservation for a special seat     prepared for the Drewes family [07:23] Erhart     for their financial support. [07:27] Aira     Nobles are really amazing... [07:30] Erhart     It's useless to Yuri,     who cares nothing for the mundane world. [07:34] Erhart     Hurry up and get to work. [07:37] Aira     U-Um... [07:39] Yuri     Aira, your world has plays too?!     Isn't that what you said?! [07:43] Aira     Yes. [07:47] Yuri     Then I'd better hurry up and get to work! [07:50] Aira     Wait, huh? [07:58] Erhart     I have a really bad feeling about this. [08:09] Yuri     Well, that's all for today. [08:12] Sei     Thank you very much. [08:18] Yuri     Lady Sei, have you seen a play before? [08:24] Sei     A play? Like on a stage? [08:27] Yuri     Yes, where they dance and sing.     That kind of thing. [08:31] Sei     I went once back in my old world... [08:34] Yuri     I'm glad to hear it. [08:36] Yuri     Now, would you like to go see one together? [08:39] Sei     Wh-What? [08:41] Yuri     I received two tickets for a play     being put on in the royal capital. [08:46] Yuri     They came to my parents' home. [08:49] Yuri     Normally, the head of the house would     attend with his wife, but unfortunately... [08:54] Sei     They couldn't make it? [08:56] Yuri     Something like that. [08:58] Yuri     So the tickets have fallen to me. [09:02] Yuri     You were the first person     I thought of asking to go with me. [09:08] Sei     Huh? [09:09] Yuri     It can only be you, Lady Sei. [09:15] Sei     Wh-What do you mean by that? [09:18] Yuri     Your world has no magic, correct? [09:21] Sei     Huh? That's right... [09:23] Yuri     Since our world does, I'd like you to tell me [09:26] Yuri     if the presence or absence of magics     affects theater production. [09:31] Sei     Oh, that's what he means. The usual. [09:31] Yuri     Don't you think that would be something     interesting enough to research? [09:35] Yuri     And... it'd be problematic if I invited     anyone other than you, Lady Sei. [09:40] Sei     Problematic? [09:43] Yuri     I don't know what conversation      topics women enjoy. [09:46] Sei     Even though you're so capable     when it comes to magic? [09:49] Yuri     It'd be hard for me and put my date      in an awkward position. [09:54] Yuri     So I'd love to go with you, Lady Sei. [09:59] Sei     The Grand Magus does always take care of me. [10:03] Sei     And it's true that I'm intrigued     by what theater is like in this world... [10:08] Sei     I understand. I'll go with you. [10:11] Yuri     Thank you so much! [10:14] Yuri     This will be the time and location. [10:17] Sei     Oh, it's in the evening. [10:26] Johan     Come to think of it, Jude wanted     to go out to eat together sometime. [10:31] Johan     I hear he found a really good restaurant. [10:33] Sei     How nice! [10:35] Johan     Okay, why don't we go on your next day off? [10:38] Sei     Oh, I'm sorry. I'm actually busy that day. [10:42] Johan     You have plans? [10:44] Sei     Yes, I'm going to a play... [10:47] Sei     That's right!      I need to figure out what to wear! [10:50] Sei     Is there a certain dress code to follow     when attending a theater play? [10:54] Johan     That depends on the theater... [10:57] Johan     Are you going with Lady Ashley? [11:00] Sei     No, with Lord Drewes. [11:03] Johan     And when did you promise him that? [11:06] Sei     During my last lesson. [11:08] Johan     He invited you himself? [11:10] Sei     Yes. His family couldn't attend,     so he had extra tickets. [11:17] Sei     What's the matter? [11:21] Johan     The plays in the royal capital are split     into ones for commoners and ones for nobles. [11:26] Johan     If you are attending with the Drewes family,      it must be the latter. [11:31] Johan     You'll need a dress. You should ask     the maids in the palace for advice. [11:37] Sei     Does that mean... [11:40] Johan     Though it's an evening play, [11:41] Johan     you'll have to begin preparations     early in the day. [11:47] Sei     Of course. Of course that's how it is... [11:50] Johan     Well, chin up. [11:53] Sei     Yes. [11:58] Johan     Yuri Drewes... [12:00] Johan     No, Marquis Drewes must be behind this. [12:27] Yuri     Good evening, Lady Sei. [12:30] Sei     G-Good evening. [12:34] Yuri     You look ravishing tonight, Lady Sei. [12:38] Sei     W-Wait! What are you saying all of a sudden?! [12:41] Yuri     Oh? You didn't like hearing that? [12:44] Sei     It's not about whether I like it or not.     What's gotten into you? [12:50] Yuri     My family taught me that this is     basic courtesy when escorting a woman. [12:56] Sei     His family did? [12:58] Sei     He's acting totally different     from his usual self! [13:02] Sei     Whatever. Let's go. [13:13] Sei     Isn't that the entrance to the theater? [13:15] Yuri     Yes, but patrons apparently      have a private one. [13:19] Yuri     We'll be going in through there. [13:21] Sei     You don't say— [13:26] Sei     Calm down! [13:27] Sei     This is the Grand Magus!     His only interest is in magic! [14:03] Yuri     What's the matter? [14:06] Sei     Nothing. It's just not every day     you see a theater like this. [14:10] Yuri     I've never been to a play before myself. [14:13] Yuri     So this is a first for us both. [14:17] Sei     It looks like all of the chandeliers     here have magic cast on them. [14:22] Yuri     Indeed, they do. [14:23] Sei     How novel. [14:25] Sei     I usually see candles on the     chandeliers in the royal palace. [14:30] Yuri     Are candles normally used     for lighting in your world, Lady Sei? [14:35] Sei     Well, maybe in the past. [14:40] Sei     There used to be a special job     for snuffing candles during a play. [14:45] Yuri     Are things different now? [14:47] Sei     Yes. They're much more convenient now. [14:52] Sei     We can change lights into an array of colors [14:54] Sei     and adjust their brightness     with the touch of a button. [14:57] Yuri     I see. [14:59] Yuri     It would be nice to do such things with magic. [15:04] Sei     Can't you? [15:06] Yuri     Huh? [15:07] Sei     Light. [15:12] Yuri     Amazing! [15:15] Sei     Shh! Shh! [15:19] Sei     S-Sorry! I was taught that     we need to be quiet at a theater. [15:25] Yuri     Think nothing of it! [15:26] Yuri     I've only ever considered Light a spell     merely to be cast and canceled. [15:31] Yuri     You've once again opened my eyes, Lady Sei. [15:35] Sei     I'm flattered to hear that... [15:39] Yuri     I forget not to get stuck in my ways,     both in my research and other things. [15:44] Sei     I agree. [15:46] Yuri     We need to get close to what we love     and examine it with our own hands. [15:51] Yuri     That way, we may come     to know ourselves even better. [15:55] Sei     You think so...? [15:58] Yuri     On that note, I wonder if that light will ever     reveal its golden glow with me by my side. [16:08] Yuri     Oh, don't mind me. [16:13] Yuri     It looks like the play is about to begin. [16:15] Sei     It does! [16:31] Nobles     They looked so good together! [16:33] Nobles     So true! [16:33] Nobles     It's just as you say! [16:38] Noble Lady A     Good afternoon, Lady Ashley. [16:41] Liz     Why, good after— [16:43] Noble Lady B     Did you hear? [16:45] Noble Lady C     It's the talk of the town! [16:49] Liz     What are you talking about? [16:51] Noble Lady A     The Holy Saint! At long last! [16:54] Noble Lady B     She's going to be engaged! [16:57] Noble Lady C     Her partner is the mysterious Grand Magus     of the Royal Magi Assembly! [17:04] Liz     Where did you hear such a thing? [17:08] Noble Lady A     Everyone is talking about it! [17:10] Noble Lady B     My cousin's wife's viscount friend's     servant saw it with their own eyes! [17:16] Noble Lady C     I heard they were so close with each other     that it was hard to even watch! [17:23] Liz     In other words, none of you saw it yourselves. [17:29] Noble Lady A     Well, that's... [17:30] Noble Lady B     That's true, but... [17:33] Noble Lady C     Even so... [17:34] Liz     Lady Sei must have her      own thoughts on the matter. [17:38] Liz     Shan't we keep to ourselves      and watch over her? [17:42] Noble Lady A     Y-You're absolutely right! [17:45] Noble Lady B     Too true! [17:47] Noble Lady C     I was just about to say the same thing! [17:56] Aira     I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! [17:59] Liz     Why are you apologizing? [18:02] Aira     This reminds me of my time at the academy... [18:05] Liz     The academy? [18:07] Aira     So much is different in this world     compared to ours. [18:13] Aira     We view men and women doing things     together differently than you do here. [18:17] Aira     I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused... [18:23] Liz     And yet we were able to become     true friends because of it. [18:29] Aira     L-Liz! [18:34] Liz     I'm sure that Sei is panicking     right about now. [18:38] Aira     Well, this is a bit different from my story. [18:40] Aira     The rumors will probably stop pretty quickly. [18:44] Liz     They will, if they began organically. [18:51] Liz     It would benefit their family if people knew     that she was close to one of them. [18:57] Liz     There are many who would think that way... [19:14] Researcher     Did you call for me? [19:16] Johan     Yes, can you deliver some documents? [19:18] Johan     This one to the First Order. [19:21] Johan     This one is to the Second.     This one is to the Third... [19:24] Johan     No, I'll deliver this one myself. [19:32] Albert     You wanted to talk to me? [19:34] Johan     I came to tell you about     the rumor that's been spreading. [19:38] Albert     Rumor? [19:40] Johan     Yes, about Sei and Lord Drewes. [19:43] Johan     Do you want to know? [19:46] Albert     Not really. [19:48] Johan     Come now. I'm here      because I'm worried about you. [19:52] Johan     I asked Sei directly,     and it seems the rumors are false. [19:57] Johan     They got so excited talking about magic [19:59] Johan     that she doesn't even remember      much of the play. [20:02] Johan     It sounds like there was nary a spark of love. [20:07] Albert     I imagine not. [20:08] Johan     You already knew? [20:10] Albert     No. [20:11] Albert     But knowing the two of them,     I can tell exactly what happened. [20:15] Johan     Oh, so you weren't really bothered after all. [20:18] Albert     I am bothered. [20:23] Johan     What? [20:24] Albert     Sei attends plays, huh? [20:28] Johan     Ah, that took me by surprise too. [20:30] Johan     She doesn't seem like the type     who'd enjoy something so stuffy. [20:35] Albert     If Sei's interested in it,     I should have invited her. [20:39] Johan     Could it be that you wanted to be     the first person to take her? [20:44] Albert     Got a problem with that? [20:53] Johan     Marquis Drewes probably     has something to do with the rumors. [20:58] Albert     Perhaps. [21:00] Johan     He probably wants to advertise     their relationship [21:03] Johan     and get the public to push for     his son's engagement to her. [21:07] Albert     The Grand Magus of the Royal Magi Assembly      and the Holy Saint, huh? [21:13] Johan     He'll gain more power that way.     The plan sounds just like him. [21:24] Johan     So, I'm probably meddling,     but shouldn't you make a move soon? [21:33] Albert     For the sake of the Hawke family? [21:36] Johan     No, for the sake of your own life. [21:41] Albert     My own life? [21:43] Johan     I get that you want to let her     go at her own pace, [21:48] Johan     but there are times when     just waiting isn't enough. [21:52] Johan     You should grab hold of what     you love with your own hands. [21:56] Johan     Isn't that what life is all about? SIGN    Next Time
