**[00:02] ---**
What are you doing here, Grand Magus?!
**[00:04] ---**
We'll talk later.
**[00:06] ---**
*Fire Storm*!
**[00:12] ---**
I'll clear a path!
**[00:14] ---**
Retreat!
**[02:02] ---**
Yes! It looks like it worked!
**[02:04] ---**
Let's move on to bigger things, then, yes?
**[02:07] ---**
You're sure it's all right?
**[02:10] ---**
Yes, I received permission
from Lord Klausner himself.
**[02:13] ---**
Right then, let's get started.
**[02:15] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[02:30] ---**
Did you just cast the Saint's conjury?
**[02:32] ---**
G-Good morning, Ser!
**[02:34] ---**
That *was* the Saint's conjury, wasn't it?!
**[02:36] ---**
I see you've learned how
to cast it at will!
**[02:39] ---**
But why are you casting it here and now?
**[02:42] ---**
And why haven't you cast it for *me* yet?
**[02:44] ---**
Do you hate me? Are you punishing me?
**[02:47] ---**
Oh, no, I just...
**[02:48] ---**
I asked her for a place to practice
casting it, and she took me here.
**[02:53] ---**
Is that so?
**[02:55] ---**
This small plot was only just prepared
for us, so nothing’s been planted yet.
**[02:59] ---**
We wanted to make sure the Saint's
conjury wouldn't harm the plants.
**[03:03] ---**
I see.
**[03:05] ---**
I don't believe it would cause any harm,
but it may affect the soil.
**[03:10] ---**
Huh?
**[03:13] ---**
I sense a peculiar magical aura.
**[03:15] ---**
What do you think it's done to the soil?
**[03:19] ---**
I'm unsure.
**[03:21] ---**
The magic power may have
flowed directly into the soil,
**[03:23] ---**
or it may have imbued the minerals
within the soil with magic power.
**[03:26] ---**
Both seem probable.
**[03:29] ---**
Those are just my hypotheses, of course.
**[03:32] ---**
We'll need to perform a few
tests to confirm them.
**[03:36] ---**
Indeed.
**[03:38] ---**
Well, aren't *they* two peas in a pod...
**[03:41] ---**
Shall we move on to the next one?
**[03:44] ---**
Yes, let's.
**[03:46] ---**
Huh?
**[03:53] ---**
Try these.
**[03:54] ---**
Wait...
**[03:55] ---**
What?
**[03:57] ---**
What?!
**[04:06] ---**
It would seem the Saint's conjury
expends quite a bit of your magic power.
**[04:11] ---**
Y-Yes, it does. Yep.
**[04:14] ---**
You can see how *tired* I am after
you made me cast it over and over...
**[04:19] ---**
Repetition is the key to mastery.
**[04:22] ---**
With more training, you should
be able to cast it even faster.
**[04:27] ---**
What?! Even faster than
I'm casting it now?!
**[04:30] ---**
I mean, hold on, I don't know if I can...
**[04:33] ---**
I have to prep myself before
I can even cast it...
**[04:37] ---**
You *do*?
**[04:39] ---**
What kind of preparation do you
have to do to successfully cast it?
**[04:43] ---**
Huh? Um...
**[04:48] ---**
Is it difficult to put into words?
**[04:52] ---**
I see. That's all right.
**[04:54] ---**
Wait, really?
**[04:56] ---**
Unless you'd like to tell me?
**[04:59] ---**
No...
**[05:02] ---**
Come in.
**[05:05] ---**
Sei!
**[05:06] ---**
Commander Hawke!
**[05:09] ---**
My apologies, I was told you were here...
**[05:12] ---**
Please, come in. What is it you need?
**[05:15] ---**
We've completed our plans
for resuming our failed expedition.
**[05:18] ---**
Please, have a look.
**[05:20] ---**
I'd like for you to accompany
us again, Sei.
**[05:24] ---**
I see no problems with your proposed plan.
**[05:27] ---**
Thank you.
**[05:29] ---**
Toxic slimes...
**[05:32] ---**
How *thrilling*.
**[05:47] ---**
Good morning, Sei!
**[05:49] ---**
Morning, Aira.
**[05:51] ---**
I see we're in the same squadron!
**[05:53] ---**
Yep! Are you going to help fight, too?
**[05:57] ---**
Probably, if they need help...
**[06:00] ---**
But I'm supposed to be on healing duty.
**[06:02] ---**
The other mages told me the Grand Magus
probably won't help with healing.
**[06:06] ---**
Yeah, I doubt it...
**[06:10] ---**
Good morning, Lady Sei!
**[06:12] ---**
G-Good morning.
**[06:14] ---**
Yo!
**[06:16] ---**
Are you going to be in our squad, too?
**[06:18] ---**
You bet! Let's crush it today!
**[06:20] ---**
Good morning, Sei.
**[06:22] ---**
Good morning, Lady Sei!
**[06:24] ---**
Good morning.
**[06:26] ---**
So *he's* the Inferno Fiend.
**[06:29] ---**
Inferno what?
**[06:31] ---**
He earned that nickname from how he
torches huge swaths of monsters
**[06:37] ---**
to a crisp.
**[06:40] ---**
I hope he restrains himself.
**[06:43] ---**
Huh?
**[06:44] ---**
I just don't want the forest
to go up in flames.
**[06:48] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:50] ---**
I should ask him to try and avoid
burning the whole thing down.
**[06:54] ---**
"Return"
**[07:05] ---**
*Ice Spear*!
**[07:10] ---**
*Area Protection*!
**[07:13] ---**
*Fire Lance*!
**[07:17] ---**
*Heal*!
**[07:20] ---**
Thanks, miss.
**[07:22] ---**
Of course!
**[07:23] ---**
Thank you, Your Holiness.
**[07:26] ---**
Don't mention it.
**[07:27] ---**
There seem to be more of them today.
**[07:30] ---**
And more slimes, too.
**[07:33] ---**
We may be quite close
to that miasma swamp.
**[07:35] ---**
Grand Magus!
**[07:37] ---**
Spare the forest, yes, I know.
**[08:07] ---**
--They're coming!
--Engage!
**[08:09] ---**
--There are too many of them!
--Stay alert, men!
**[08:16] ---**
*Fire Lance*!
**[08:21] ---**
Hold the line!
**[08:24] ---**
I'm on it!
**[08:26] ---**
*Water Wall*!
**[08:30] ---**
*Ice Arrow*!
**[08:36] ---**
*Ice Wall*!
**[08:39] ---**
*Ground Spear*!
**[08:46] ---**
Heal!
**[08:48] ---**
Thank you.
**[08:51] ---**
Sei!
**[09:03] ---**
Commander Hawke!
**[09:05] ---**
Not yet! *Fire Lance*!
**[09:13] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:14] ---**
Of course. Lady Sei, if you will...
**[09:16] ---**
R-Right. *Heal*.
**[09:20] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:24] ---**
Thank you for your help.
**[09:26] ---**
No need.
**[09:27] ---**
Your conjury uses far too much
of your magic power.
**[09:31] ---**
Try to withhold from using it
until we reach the swamp...
**[09:43] ---**
Oh, dear.
**[10:07] ---**
Lady Sei, can you purify the miasma
swamp from this distance?
**[10:12] ---**
Could we get a little closer?
**[10:15] ---**
Very well. We'll get you there.
**[10:21] ---**
We're too entrenched to retreat now.
We'll just need to fight our way through.
**[10:34] ---**
Let's go.
**[10:37] ---**
*Fire Lance*!
**[10:41] ---**
With me, men!
**[10:44] ---**
*Round Spark*!
**[10:56] ---**
Lady Sei!
**[10:58] ---**
*Whirlwind*!
**[11:02] ---**
Quickly, now!
**[11:03] ---**
On it!
**[11:25] ---**
Commander!
**[11:27] ---**
Commander Hawke!
**[11:28] ---**
We'll handle the slimes!
You handle the miasma!
**[11:36] ---**
Lady Sei!
**[11:38] ---**
Sei!
**[11:51] ---**
*Inferno*.
**[12:07] ---**
Lady Sei, this is your chance.
**[12:10] ---**
*Fire Lance*!
**[12:20] ---**
I have to hurry,
I have to hurry, or else...
**[13:42] ---**
What's wrong?
**[13:45] ---**
Nothing, just a bit lost in thought.
**[13:49] ---**
I see. It's been quite the day, after all.
**[13:52] ---**
You must be exhausted. You should lie
down when you get a chance.
**[13:56] ---**
Thank you, Commander.
**[14:04] ---**
Sei?
**[14:05] ---**
Oh, sorry. I think I *will* lie down,
if that's all right.
**[14:10] ---**
I'll walk you to your tent.
**[14:12] ---**
Thank you.
**[14:13] ---**
Of course.
**[14:22] ---**
Thank you for all your help.
**[14:24] ---**
It's my honor. Please, rest well.
**[14:27] ---**
I will. Good night.
**[14:30] ---**
Good night.
**[14:47] ---**
Is there something on your mind?
**[14:54] ---**
I know it's selfish to want
anything more from him.
**[15:00] ---**
But even still,
I can't let him go like this...
**[15:09] ---**
Sei, as a Knight, I serve my Kingdom.
My sword is pledged to the King himself.
**[15:16] ---**
But if you would allow me the honor,
**[15:19] ---**
then I would also like to pledge
my sword to *you*.
**[15:23] ---**
Might I grant you your every wish?
**[16:17] ---**
Whatever are you doing?
**[16:19] ---**
U-Uh, you know, something...
**[16:25] ---**
Focus, focus... Try to focus...
**[16:31] ---**
--Ser...
--What is it?
**[16:34] ---**
Nothing, just... your stare
is just a *bit* unnerving.
**[16:38] ---**
My apologies. Please, don't mind me.
**[16:47] ---**
I hope I can do this...
**[17:04] ---**
I know you can do this.
**[17:10] ---**
Oh, how *very* interesting.
**[17:40] ---**
Please, return the forest
to its former life!
**[18:12] ---**
My word!
**[18:14] ---**
Oh, wow! It's beautiful!
**[18:20] ---**
It's back... Klausner's woods are back!
**[18:41] ---**
Sei? Sei!
**[18:43] ---**
--Sei-*san*!
--Lady Sei! --Sei!
**[18:56] ---**
Thank goodness, you're awake.
**[18:58] ---**
Wh-Why are you holding me?!
**[19:00] ---**
You lost consciousness.
You must truly have been exhausted.
**[19:04] ---**
Thanks, but I'm all right now! Really!
**[19:08] ---**
This is your punishment
for worrying us so.
**[19:23] ---**
A-Actually...
**[19:29] ---**
I'd like to walk, if that's all right.
**[19:36] ---**
Very well.
**[19:51] ---**
At the very least, would you allow me
the honor of supporting you as you walk?
**[19:59] ---**
Of course!
**[20:10] ---**
Thanks for your help.
**[20:11] ---**
Please, you've done so
much for me. Thank *you*.
**[20:15] ---**
Fulfilling all those potion orders
is gonna be hectic without you here.
**[20:19] ---**
Yeah, well...
**[20:21] ---**
I know, no helping that.
**[20:23] ---**
Only a monster like you
could craft that many in a day.
**[20:27] ---**
You're just as incredible as
milord Klausner said you'd be.
**[20:34] ---**
Hey! Heading out already?
**[20:37] ---**
That's right.
**[20:38] ---**
Take care out there.
**[20:39] ---**
You too, Leo.
**[20:41] ---**
Sure. And if you start to hate the
capital, you're always welcome here.
**[20:45] ---**
Oh, please! If she comes
back here, she's *mine*!
**[20:50] ---**
Sei, we should go.
**[20:52] ---**
All right.
**[20:54] ---**
Thank you again for all your help!
**[20:57] ---**
Of course. Come visit anytime.
**[21:03] ---**
The Saint's magic power is incredible.
**[21:07] ---**
She regrew the whole damn forest.
**[21:09] ---**
I'd say.
**[21:10] ---**
But it wasn't just her magic power.
**[21:14] ---**
That incredible power of hers is something
we all possess inside ourselves.
**[21:18] ---**
Wow, Granny, are you finally losing it?
**[21:22] ---**
Ow!
**[21:23] ---**
It's simple, really.
**[21:26] ---**
The Saint's magic power...
**[21:28] ---**
...is love.
**[23:05] ---**
There really is no place like home.
**[23:11] ---**
I'm sure we'll be asked to set out
on another expedition
**[23:14] ---**
in the very near future.
**[23:16] ---**
Yet another burden placed
upon your shoulders, Sei.
**[23:18] ---**
That's all right.
**[23:20] ---**
You're sure?
**[23:22] ---**
Of course. You know what they say about
the Saint, right, Commander Hawke?
**[23:27] ---**
*The Saint's Magic Power*...
