[00:06] Lugh
    Three, two, one, tack!
[00:10] Tarte
    Got it!
[00:17] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh, I see land.
[00:20] Lugh
    All right, just as planned.
[00:22] Tarte
    We're heading back home already, huh?
[00:24] Lugh
    Yeah, our normal lives are waiting for us.
[00:27] Tarte
    I enjoyed living on an
    uninhabited island together,
[00:31] ---
    besides the fact that
    all our meals were fish.
[00:34] Lugh
    When we get back, let's go hunting.
[00:36] Lugh
    I'll make us some cream stew.
[00:38] Tarte
    Yes, sir.
[00:47] Lugh
    It's Maha. Let's go.
[00:49] Tarte
    Got it.
[01:00] Tarte
    Hup.
[01:01] Maha
    Welcome back, Brother Lugh and Tarte.
[01:04] Maha
    How was the uninhabited island?
[01:07] Lugh
    It's inconspicuous and located
    away from transport ship routes.
[01:10] Lugh
    The greenery provided us
    with somewhere to stay, too.
[01:13] Lugh
    It was the perfect place to practice
    magic. Thanks for finding it.
[01:17] Maha
    I heard about a shipwreck
    survivor who made it back alive.
[01:20] Maha
    I found the survivor and located the island
    based on ocean currents and wind direction.
[01:25] Tarte
    Impressive as always, Maha.
[01:27] Maha
    I have the Balor Trading Company's
    information network to thank for that.
[01:31] Lugh
    Anyway, Maha, what happened?
[01:34] Maha
    I have good news and bad news.
[01:42] Maha
    I found the divine treasure
    you asked me about.
[01:47] Lugh
    That's certainly good news.
[01:49] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh, what's a divine treasure?
[01:53] Lugh
    A tool possessing unbelievable abilities
    that can't be made by human hands.
[01:57] Lugh
    They've existed since ancient
    times and can't be destroyed.
[02:00] Lugh
    They're incredibly valuable objects.
[02:02] Maha
    The divine treasure I found
    is the magic spear Gáe Bolg.
[02:06] Maha
    I'm currently negotiating
    the purchase of said spear.
[02:09] Maha
    It's owned by a man named Setanta MacNess.
[02:12] Maha
    He's also known as Kran's Hound,
[02:15] Maha
    and the man most likely to be the Hero.
[02:19] Lugh
    Will you be able to acquire this spear, Maha?
[02:22] Maha
    Yes, I'll do it.
[02:25] Maha
    I'm experiencing some difficulties
    with the negotiations, though.
[02:28] Lugh
    Is that the bad news?
[02:30] Maha
    No, it's worse than that.
[02:33] Maha
    A civil war has broken out in the
    neighboring kingdom of Swoigel.
[02:37] Lugh
    Civil war?
[02:38] Maha
    Even Ms. Dia's House Viekone has
    joined as part of the kingdom's army.
[02:44] Maha
    And on the side of the rebel forces,
    there's a soldier giving them a lot of trouble.
[02:49] Maha
    Setanta MacNess.

[04:41] Lugh
    Good morning, Dia.
[04:42] Dia
    Good morning, Lugh! What are you
    doing here so early in the morning?
[04:48] Dia
    I know. You missed me so much,
    you couldn't help yourself.
[04:52] Dia
    That's fine by me. Come in.
[04:59] Dia
    Did you bring any chocolate today?
[05:00] Lugh
    Sorry, not today.
[05:02] Dia
    What? But I've been looking forward to it...
[05:05] Dia
    That's fine, though.
[05:07] Dia
    Just getting to see your face makes me happy.
[05:11] Lugh
    Are you all right?
[05:13] Dia
    Whatever do you mean?
[05:15] Lugh
    You're in the middle of a war.
[05:17] Dia
    A war?
[05:21] Dia
    It's true that there have been
    some skirmishes near the capital,
[05:24] ---
    but that's so far away from here.
[05:27] Lugh
    Isn't House Viekone involved in the war?
[05:29] Dia
    House Viekone made a name
    for itself with magic.
[05:33] Dia
    We have plenty of magic users.
[05:36] ---
    There's nothing to worry about.
[05:38] Lugh
    I heard impudent nobles insulted the
    royal family and started a rebellion.
[05:43] Dia
    You're well-informed.
[05:45] Dia
    If Swoigel had its own aristocratic assassins,
[05:48] ---
    we wouldn't be overrun by evil nobles.
[05:52] Lugh
    There's a man with a divine
    treasure in the rebel army.
[05:55] Lugh
    It's possible that he's the Hero.
[05:59] Lugh
    If he is, then human strength
    won't be enough to defeat him.
[06:03] Lugh
    Illig Balor, son of the Balor Trading
    Company, is one of my identities.
[06:09] Lugh
    I could use his power to allow you and
    your family to escape to a safe kingdom.
[06:17] Lugh
    Dia, you should flee before
    danger arrives on your doorstep.
[06:20] Dia
    Listen, Lugh...
[06:22] Lugh
    I'll do everything I can to support you.
[06:24] Dia
    If you don't stop talking, I'll get mad.
[06:28] Dia
    I know exactly what's
    going on within Swoigel.
[06:30] Lugh
    All the more reason to—
[06:31] Dia
    Despite how I may seem, I'm still
    the daughter of Count Viekone.
[06:35] Dia
    I was born bearing
[06:36] Dia
    the responsibility of protecting the
    kingdom, my land, and its people.
[06:40] Dia
    You think someone like that could
    abandon her position and flee?
[06:45] Dia
    Just kidding.
[06:48] Dia
    Thinking about it won't change anything.
[06:51] Dia
    What will be, will be.
[06:55] Lugh
    Dia...
[06:57] Dia
    So, Lugh...
[06:59] Dia
    How do you dye your hair?
[07:01] Lugh
    Huh?
[07:02] Dia
    Let's go out.
[07:04] Lugh
    But why?
[07:08] Dia
    My father and his advisers are
    currently away, so I can go into town.
[07:12] Lugh
    But your safety...
[07:14] Dia
    Which dress do you prefer?
    This one, or this one?
[07:17] Lugh
    This is no time for that.
[07:21] Dia
    Which one?
[07:33] Lugh
    You ended up wearing neither dress.
[07:36] Dia
    When I matched my hair color to yours,
    they didn't go well together anymore.
[07:40] Lugh
    Are you sure it's all right for you to go
    into town wearing such a simple disguise?
[07:44] Dia
    I'll be fine. I've got you with me.
[07:47] Dia
    You'll protect me no matter
    what happens, right?
[07:50] Lugh
    You're right.
[07:52] Lugh
    You're getting out of the house.
    We might as well enjoy ourselves.
[07:57] Dia
    Yeah!
[08:02] Lugh
    So, where do you want to go?
[08:06] Dia
    I think I'm a bit hungry.
[08:07] Lugh
    If you want lunch, then...
[08:10] Lugh
    Amanda's serves good pasta,
[08:12] ---
    but it's hard to say no to Del Sol's arancini,
[08:15] ---
    and Violetta begins serving its multi-course
    porcini mushroom meal this time of year.
[08:20] Dia
    How do you know more about
    our food options than I do?
[08:23] Lugh
    I've been coming to see you
    monthly since we were children.
[08:27] Lugh
    It's only natural.
[08:33] Dia
    What is it?
[08:34] Lugh
    It's nothing. Just a habit of mine.
[08:37] Dia
    A habit?
[08:39] Lugh
    That merchant seems like a veteran.
[08:42] Lugh
    I can tell when soldiers are nearby.
[08:44] Lugh
    I can detect their blood lust.
    It's like a sixth sense.
[08:48] Lugh
    This town is full of skilled warriors.
[08:51] Dia
    The draft has brought a lot of people
    with military experience into town.
[08:54] Lugh
    Militiamen conscripted
    in times of emergency?
[08:57] Dia
    There's that, too, but also so they can
    protect themselves when war breaks out.
[09:02] Dia
    Knowing how to fight provides
    an advantage when fleeing.
[09:06] Lugh
    I see.
[09:07] Dia
    We can't always protect them.
[09:12] Dia
    Look at that!
[09:14] Dia
    That looks interesting! Let's go, Lugh!
[09:20] Employee
    Welcome.
[09:24] Dia
    How cute!
[09:26] Dia
    Win that one for me!
[09:28] Lugh
    Sure. You can count on me.
[09:34] Dia
    No!
[09:37] Lugh
    What's the matter?
[09:38] Dia
    That's cheating!
[09:40] Lugh
    I don't believe it's against the rules.
[09:43] Dia
    Magic isn't fair. The store will lose money.
[09:47] Lugh
    I see. Then I won't use magic.
[09:50] Lugh
    If I use my skills to determine
    how far off my first shot is,
[09:53] ---
    then I'm guaranteed to hit my second.
[09:56] Dia
    You can't do that, either!
[09:57] Lugh
    Why not?
[09:58] Dia
    Because that's no fun.
[10:01] Lugh
    But I can't unlearn the skills I have.
[10:04] Lugh
    Then how about this?
[10:08] Lugh
    Stay calm.
[10:10] Lugh
    Look at the target.
[10:12] Lugh
    Lower your right hand slightly
    without moving the bow.
[10:15] Lugh
    Yes, just like that.
[10:17] Lugh
    Now.
[10:20] Dia
    I missed.
[10:22] Lugh
    Don't move. Take the next shot.
[10:27] Lugh
    We'll correct to the right.
[10:30] Lugh
    Now.
[10:32] Lugh
    Maintain that posture
    and correct to the left.
[10:37] Lugh
    Now.
[10:41] Employee
    Congratulations!
[10:43] Dia
    I hit it. I hit the bear, Lugh!
[10:48] Lugh
    Yeah. You've got a knack for this.
[10:56] Lugh
    Good for you.
[10:57] Dia
    Yeah!
[10:58] Lugh
    Although the store ended
    up losing money on that.
[11:01] Dia
    It was a fair contest, so it's okay.
[11:04] Lugh
    Is that how it works?
[11:06] Dia
    Yes, it is.
[11:08] Dia
    Lasagna!
[11:10] Lugh
    Huh?
[11:11] Dia
    I want lasagna for lunch.
[11:14] Dia
    Do you know a good place?
[11:16] Lugh
    Yeah.
[11:17] Lugh
    I'll take you someplace special.

[12:38] Dia
    It's delicious.
[12:40] Lugh
    Do you like it?
[12:41] Dia
    Yeah, but it'd be better
    if you made it, right?
[12:46] Lugh
    That's not true. My cooking's
    no match for this restaurant.
[12:49] Dia
    Liar. You're a good cook.
[12:52] Lugh
    You're right.
[12:54] Lugh
    I could make a better lasagna than this.
[12:56] Dia
    I knew it.
[12:57] Lugh
    But eating together with you makes it taste
    far better, and besides, I prefer this.
[13:08] Lugh
    What is it?
[13:09] Dia
    Nothing! Anyway, that doesn't make sense!
[13:13] Lugh
    You feel differently?
[13:14] Dia
    Of course I do! Eating with you makes
    the food taste better for me, too,
[13:19] Dia
    but I'd rather eat something
    you made for us together!
[13:25] Lugh
    Then I'll make you a lasagna next time.
[13:28] Dia
    Huh?
[13:29] Lugh
    I'll cook for you the next
    time you're in Tuatha Dé.
[13:37] Lugh
    What is it?
[13:38] Dia
    Nothing.
[13:40] Dia
    It's a promise.
[13:43] Lugh
    Yeah. I promise.
[13:48] Dia
    I'm so full.
[13:50] Lugh
    Maybe you ate a little too much?
[13:52] Dia
    I don't often get to go out.
    I have to enjoy myself to the fullest.
[13:56] Lugh
    You're right.
    This is our first time doing this.
[14:00] Dia
    Yeah.
[14:07] Dia
    Hey.
[14:09] Dia
    What's wrong?
[14:11] Rico
    My mommy...
[14:13] Lugh
    Is he lost?
[14:14] Rico
    Mommy...
[14:15] Dia
    Seems that way.
[14:16] Lugh
    Dia, could I borrow that?
[14:20] Lugh
    What's the matter?
[14:23] Lugh
    What's your name?
[14:25] Rico
    Rico.
[14:26] Lugh
    Is your home nearby, Rico?
[14:29] Rico
    No.
[14:30] Lugh
    Did you get separated from your mommy?
[14:33] Rico
    Uh-huh.
[14:34] Lugh
    Then let's look for her.
[14:36] Rico
    Okay.
[14:38] Lugh
    Rico's mother must be looking for him.
    We'll search for her calls.
[14:42] Dia
    Got it. I'll give it a shot.
[14:46] Dia
    Dniw cigam.
[14:56] Rico Mom
    Rico! Rico!
[14:59] Rico
    Mommy!
[15:00] Lugh
    That voice...
[15:02] Dia
    It came from over there,
    down the main street.
[15:06] Lugh
    Rico.
[15:08] Lugh
    Let's go see your mommy.
[15:10] Rico
    Okay!
[15:13] Rico
    Mommy!
[15:14] Rico Mom
    Rico!
[15:16] Rico Mom
    Where have you been?
    I was looking for you.
[15:19] Rico
    Mommy!
[15:20] Dia
    I'm glad we found her.
[15:21] Lugh
    Yeah.
[15:29] Dia
    You're kind, aren't you?
[15:30] Lugh
    Not really. I did it for myself.
[15:34] Dia
    Really?
[15:35] Lugh
    I want you to remember
    our time together fondly.
[15:39] Lugh
    Ignoring a crying child would
    make for a sour memory.
[15:44] Dia
    You really are kind.
[15:46] Lugh
    Were you listening to me?
[15:48] Dia
    Yeah, I'm listening.
[15:51] Dia
    Since you're so kind, I'll take
    you someplace special as a reward.
[15:59] Lugh
    Isn't this place...
[16:01] Dia
    This hot spring is famous in Viekone.
[16:04] Dia
    I've always wanted to come here with you.
[16:11] Lugh
    Hold on, Dia. Is this a mixed bath?
[16:14] Dia
    Huh? A what?
[16:16] Lugh
    I'm asking if men and women
    don't bathe separately here.
[16:19] Dia
    Why?
[16:22] Dia
    It's fine. I reserved the
    whole place just for us.
[16:24] Lugh
    That's not what I mean.
[16:26] Dia
    Don't worry. Let's go.
[16:29] Lugh
    I know people of this cultural region
    have little objection to being seen naked.
[16:34] Lugh
    In my previous life, during ancient times,
[16:36] ---
    there were cultural regions where nobility
    in particular were not ashamed of their nudity.
[16:42] Lugh
    Mentally, I'm not so young as to easily lust
    over the naked body of the opposite sex,
[16:48] ---
    but this body I've been reincarnated
    into feels differently.
[16:53] Dia
    What's wrong, Lugh? Hurry up.
[16:55] Lugh
    I'll be right there. Go on without me.
[17:01] Dia
    Come on, hurry up.
[17:02] Lugh
    H-Hey!
[17:03] Lugh
    Dia, wait!
[17:15] Dia
    Hooray!
[17:21] Lugh
    This is less like a hot
    spring and more like a pool.
[17:29] Lugh
    You little...
[17:33] Lugh
    Wait up!
[17:40] Lugh
    Dia!
[17:43] Lugh
    Take a deep breath.
[17:45] Lugh
    Use your lungs as a flotation device.
[17:51] Lugh
    That's it. Breathe while keeping
    your lungs at that size.
[17:55] Lugh
    It'll allow you to maintain your buoyancy.
[17:58] Dia
    You know everything, Lugh.
[18:00] Lugh
    Thanks to my parents.
[18:04] Dia
    That's not the only reason.
[18:05] ---
    I'm sure it's because you're you, too.
[18:08] Lugh
    What does that mean?
[18:10] Dia
    I don't know.
[18:13] Dia
    I wish we could stay like this forever.
[18:16] Lugh
    Staying in the water too
    long would make you dizzy.
[18:19] Dia
    You're right, but I'd still
    rather stay like this.
[18:23] Dia
    You love Tuatha Dé, don't you, Lugh?
[18:26] Lugh
    Yeah, of course.
[18:29] Dia
    I love Viekone, too.
[18:32] Dia
    I love this town. I love the
    people who live in this town.
[18:37] Dia
    That's why I want to serve the interests
    of this town until the very end.
[18:40] Lugh
    Dia...
[18:42] Dia
    My father's currently on the
    battlefield, but he's really strong.
[18:46] Dia
    He's even good at losing.
[18:48] Lugh
    Good at losing?
[18:50] Dia
    Yeah. Even if he loses,
    he'll come back alive.
[18:54] Dia
    He's good at post-war clean-up, too.
[18:56] Lugh
    The greatest qualities a noble can have.
[18:58] Dia
    Yeah. That's why I have to greet him warmly
    and support him when he comes home.
[19:04] Lugh
    In other words, you don't want to flee.
[19:08] Dia
    Sorry.
[19:09] Lugh
    I understand. But I'll keep things ready for you.
[19:13] Dia
    Thank you.
[19:55] Dia
    Thanks for today. I had a lot of fun.
[19:58] Lugh
    Me, too.
[19:59] Dia
    Be careful on your way home.
[20:01] Lugh
    I will. I'll come again.
[20:06] Lugh
    What is it?
[20:08] Dia
    I'm going to be busy for a while.
[20:12] Dia
    I doubt I'll be able to see
    you until things calm down.
[20:15] Lugh
    I see.
[20:16] Dia
    I'll let you know once we
    can see each other again.
[20:18] Lugh
    Okay. I'll be waiting.
[20:20] Dia
    Take care.
[20:22] Lugh
    Take care.
[20:31] Lugh
    Dia.
[20:33] Lugh
    I'll make you that lasagna. It's a promise.
[20:38] Dia
    Okay!
[20:48] Dia
    You can stop now.
[21:04] Dia
    Goodbye, Lugh.
[22:47] Lugh
    Dia...
[22:49] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh!
[22:52] Lugh
    Tarte.
[22:54] Lugh
    What is it?
[22:55] Tarte
    Mr. Lugh, it's an emergency.
[23:07] Lugh
    Dad!
[23:08] Cian
    It's all right. I've put him
    to sleep using medicine.
[23:11] Lugh
    Who is this man?
[23:13] Cian
    Lugh...
[23:16] Cian
    He's hired us to do a job.
[23:19] Cian
    I want you to do it.
[23:22] Lugh
    Yes, Dad.
[23:23] Cian
    Your target is Count Viekone's daughter.
[23:27] Cian
    You'll assassinate Dia Viekone.
