**[01:59] Brooks**
*Turning the love of women into money...*
**[02:02] Brooks**
*That was how I always did things.*
**[02:05] Brooks**
*All the women who were dazzled by my status*
**[02:07] Brooks**
*and came to court me...*
**[02:10] Brooks**
* Jake Langston's little sister*
* was one of them.*
**[02:15] Brooks**
*But...*
**[02:17] Brooks**
*Unlike the other women,*
**[02:19] Brooks**
* she tried to take her own life*
* in hopes of saving my soul.*
**[02:27] Brooks**
*All I did was try to stop her!*
**[02:31] (Flashback) Brooks**
What are you doing?! Stop!
**[02:43] (Flashback) Brooks**
N-No... I didn't do this!
**[02:53] (Flashback) Jake**
Do you...
**[02:55] (Flashback) Jake**
have money?
**[02:57] (Flashback) Jake**
Yeah, I guess a guy who tricks a woman
into financially supporting him
**[03:01] (Flashback) Jake**
probably wouldn't have money, huh?
**[03:08] (Flashback) Jake**
Get yourself engaged to that woman.
**[03:11] (Flashback) Jake**
Her name's Raeliana McMillan.
**[03:13] (Flashback) Jake**
She's nothing special,
just a baron's daughter,
**[03:16] (Flashback) Jake**
but she's one of those "nouveau riche."
**[03:20] (Flashback) Brooks**
And what am I supposed to
do once I'm engaged to her?
**[03:30] (Flashback) Jake**
Relax. After you've done it once,
**[03:33] (Flashback) Jake**
the second time is no big deal.
**[03:38] Jake**
*Right, Francis Brooks?*
**[03:42] Brooks**
*It's not my fault!*
**[03:45] Brooks**
*I just had bad luck!*
**[03:48] Brooks**
*All because I chose that woman...*
**[03:52] Brooks**
*Damn it!*
**[03:55] Brooks**
There's no...
**[03:57] Brooks**
going back now.
**[04:16] Raeliana**
*Where am I?*
**[04:18] Jake**
You're awake now?
**[04:22] Jake**
And how are you feeling, Miss McMillan?
**[04:28] Raeliana**
Wh-Who are you?
**[04:31] Raeliana**
*I remember... going to the ball,*
**[04:35] Raeliana**
* and getting close to Marquess Eriteal's*
* wife because Noah asked me to...*
**[04:40] Raeliana**
*And then, smoke started filling the room...*
**[04:44] Raeliana**
*Was I abducted?!*
**[04:46] Raeliana**
* There's only one person*
* who'd do something like this.*
**[04:50] Raeliana**
*Francis Brooks!*
**[04:53] Raeliana**
*That absolute coward!*
**[04:56] Jake**
What's wrong? Can't even speak?
**[05:03] Raeliana**
Come any closer, and I'll scream!
**[05:09] Raeliana**
Someone help me!
**[05:11] Raeliana**
Hello! Is anyone out there?! Please!
**[05:14] Jake**
Scream all you want.
**[05:15] Raeliana**
Someone!
**[05:16] Jake**
Nobody's gonna come for you.
**[05:16] Raeliana**
Someone... Someone help me!
**[05:20] Raeliana**
I've been abducted!
There's a kidnapper here!
**[05:23] Raeliana**
Please! Is anyone out there?! Please!
**[05:28] Raeliana**
There's really nobody around?
**[05:31] Jake**
It'd be smarter of you to just keep quiet.
**[05:34] Jake**
So long as you do as I say,
I'll be nice to you.
**[05:39] Raeliana**
Don't think you can kidnap
the beloved fiancée of Duke Wynknight
**[05:45] Raeliana**
and get away with it!
**[05:48] Raeliana**
*Not that I have any love for him, either.*
**[05:52] Jake**
You don't seem to understand
the situation you're in.
**[05:57] Raeliana**
You're the one who doesn't understand!
**[06:00] Raeliana**
You won't get any money
out of killing me here.
**[06:09] Jake**
Is that supposed to be a threat?
**[06:12] Jake**
Are you trying to keep me
from doing anything to you?
**[06:15] Jake**
So basically, as long as you're
still alive, anything goes?
**[06:19] Raeliana**
*No! If he ruins my face...*
**[06:24] Raeliana**
I'm shorry.
**[06:26] Jake**
Say what?
**[06:28] Raeliana**
I shaid... I'm shorry.
**[06:35] Jake**
What the hell, girl?
**[06:37] Jake**
You're actually kinda cute!
**[06:40] Raeliana**
Then can you just let me go home now?
**[06:43] Jake**
You just stay right there and keep quiet.
**[06:46] Jake**
You don't want your precious face to be hurt
right before you get married, do you?
**[06:52] Raeliana**
*He's serious.*
**[06:54] Raeliana**
*He'll really kill me if it comes down to it.*
**[06:59] Raeliana**
*Between this guy and Brooks...*
**[07:02] Raeliana**
* Seems like I'm surrounded*
* by horrible people.*
**[07:14] Raeliana**
Hey.
**[07:16] Raeliana**
Why are you doing this?
**[07:19] Raeliana**
You can at least tell me
that much, can't you?
**[07:26] Jake**
My little sister died.
**[07:30] Jake**
Sophie died because of him.
**[07:39] Jake**
Isn't it natural to avenge
the death of a family member?
**[07:43] Raeliana**
Are you saying...
**[07:45] Raeliana**
Lord Brooks killed your sister?
**[07:48] Jake**
Yeah, pretty much.
**[07:51] Raeliana**
Your sister...
**[07:54] Raeliana**
Your sister wouldn't want you to do this!
**[07:58] Jake**
What?
**[07:59] Raeliana**
If she knew her brother was sullying
his own hands to avenge her...
**[08:06] Raeliana**
It would make your sister in heaven so sad!
**[08:10] Raeliana**
So please... stop this foolishness!
**[08:17] Jake**
Did you actually think platitudes like
that would convince me?
**[08:21] Jake**
It'd make my sister sad?
**[08:23] Jake**
As long as I get my money,
I don't give a shit about that!
**[08:32] Jake**
Nobles think they can solve any problem
as long as they have their status.
**[08:37] Jake**
What a bunch of idiots.
**[08:39] Jake**
He's a great example!
**[08:43] Jake**
The eldest son of the Brooks family,
**[08:45] Jake**
getting involved in crime
for the sake of money.
**[08:49] Jake**
Money is all that really
matters in this world!
**[08:52] Jake**
Giving my sister a nice grave
is what would really make her happy!
**[08:57] Jake**
She's already dead, after all!
**[09:01] Raeliana**
*It's no use.*
**[09:03] Raeliana**
*Nothing I say to him will do any good.*
**[09:07] Raeliana**
* Platitudes like those only*
* work in books and movies.*
**[09:12] Raeliana**
* Besides, I'm not even*
* the protagonist of this story.*
**[09:20] Jake**
Wh-What the...
**[09:22] Brooks**
Langston!
**[09:25] Jake**
What happened?
**[09:27] Brooks**
A wheel broke.
**[09:29] Jake**
What?
**[09:34] Jake**
A landslide, huh?
**[09:38] Jake**
We'll ditch the carriage
and head into the woods, then.
**[09:41] Jake**
You keep an eye on the woman.
**[09:44] Raeliana**
*What in the world happened?*
**[09:50] Raeliana**
Francis Brooks...
**[09:57] Brooks**
If you had just been
a good girl and married me,
**[10:00] Brooks**
everything would have gone smoothly.
**[10:03] Raeliana**
If we had gotten married,
would you have let me live?
**[10:08] Raeliana**
I know you wanted to kill me.
**[10:11] Raeliana**
You planned to kill me by putting
arsenic in my evening tea, didn't you?
**[10:15] Brooks**
How... do you...
**[10:25] Brooks**
Raeliana!
**[10:26] Jake**
Hey! What the hell are you doing?!
**[10:29] Brooks**
She's as quick as a damn mouse!
**[10:42] Raeliana**
What in the world is going on?
**[10:45] Raeliana**
I don't want to die.
**[10:47] Raeliana**
I'm scared. Someone help me.
**[10:51] Raeliana**
I want to go home.
**[10:56] Raeliana**
Wait, no! Stop!
**[10:58] Raeliana**
Why am I setting my own death flags here?!
**[11:01] Raeliana**
If I keep this up, I'll just be some
side character who randomly croaks!
**[11:06] Raeliana**
I have to keep it together!
I can't die here!
**[11:58] Raeliana**
Taylor!
**[12:04] Raeliana**
You saved me!
**[12:18] Jake**
Those red eyes...
**[12:20] Jake**
You must be the famous Adam Taylor.
**[12:24] Jake**
It's such an honor to meet you.
**[12:27] Raeliana**
*Wh-What's going on here?*
**[12:31] Adam**
I will handle this.
**[12:34] Raeliana**
*Is he awaiting my orders?*
**[12:37] Raeliana**
Master Taylor, have him—
**[12:39] Jake**
My name is Jake Langston. I'm 27 years old.
**[12:44] Jake**
As I said earlier,
my younger sister's already dead,
**[12:47] Jake**
and my mother was left to live
alone on our land, drowning in debt.
**[12:53] Raeliana**
*Where'd all that come from?*
**[12:55] Jake**
The debt's so deep that even if
we sold the land and our status,
**[13:00] Jake**
it wouldn't be enough to repay it.
**[13:02] Jake**
Even my mother, who grew up a noble
and never wanted for anything,
**[13:07] Jake**
will have to work until the day she dies.
**[13:12] Jake**
If I'm apprehended now,
I'll probably be imprisoned for life.
**[13:16] Jake**
I doubt they'd execute me,
since I'm a noble myself.
**[13:20] Jake**
So yeah, go ahead and kill
me if you think you can!
**[13:24] Jake**
But unlike that murderer there,
I bet you'll never be able to forget me
**[13:30] Jake**
or my mother, either.
**[13:33] Raeliana**
Don't call Master Taylor a murderer!
**[13:36] Jake**
Oh, come on. That's not
the important part here, is it?
**[13:41] Raeliana**
*Everything he says is so infuriating!*
**[13:44] Raeliana**
*But... he's exactly right.*
**[13:46] Raeliana**
* If I kill him here,*
* I'll never get over the guilt.*
**[13:51] Raeliana**
* And I don't want to give*
* Adam orders to kill anyone.*
**[13:56] Raeliana**
Master Taylor, would it be
possible to capture him alive?
**[14:02] Jake**
* Didn't expect them*
* to track me down this quickly.*
**[14:05] Jake**
*No choice now, I guess.*
**[14:20] Jake**
Hah! Didn't take you long to show up!
**[14:36] Raeliana**
*Wh-What the heck is this?!*
**[14:39] Jake**
*It's a secret drug that lures monsters.*
**[14:43] Jake**
* Wasn't expecting it to bag me*
* a mountain monkfish, though.*
**[14:56] Jake**
* Even Adam Taylor won't have an easy*
* time with a monster like that.*
**[15:16] Raeliana**
Master Taylor! There's a cliff behind us!
**[15:34] Raeliana**
*Why...*
**[15:37] Raeliana**
* I want to tell Adam to get away*
* as quickly as he can, but I...*
**[15:45] Raeliana**
* This feeling of being pushed off*
* the edge in the darkness...*
**[15:50] Raeliana**
*I recognize this.*
**[15:53] Raeliana**
*This feeling...*
**[15:56] Raeliana**
*I'm going to end up dead this time, too?*
**[16:20] Raeliana**
Noah?
**[16:24] Noah**
Raeliana...
**[16:28] Raeliana**
Hang on! Put me down right now!
**[16:31] Noah**
Just hold still.
**[16:32] Raeliana**
Master Taylor is in danger!
**[16:35] Noah**
Adam is?
**[16:39] Raeliana**
We have to hurry!
**[16:42] Raeliana**
*But... how is he so calm right now?*
**[16:50] Noah**
Looks like he made quite the show of it.
**[17:08] Raeliana**
* So this isn't even unusual*
* to the people of this world?*
**[17:14] Raeliana**
*A monster like this?*
**[17:16] Raeliana**
*It's so hard...*
**[17:18] Raeliana**
*It feels like a rock.*
**[17:20] Raeliana**
*And he took it down so easily?*
**[17:23] Noah**
And you let them go?
**[17:28] Raeliana**
*If only I hadn't hesitated,*
**[17:30] Raeliana**
* Jake Langston would have been*
* apprehended for sure.*
**[17:37] Ansley**
My lady!
**[17:39] Raeliana**
Dame Ansley!
**[17:41] Ansley**
You aren't hurt, are you?
**[17:42] Raeliana**
No. I'm sorry for worrying you.
**[17:46] Raeliana**
Anyway, is that...
**[17:48] Ansley**
Yes.
**[17:49] Ansley**
We found him on the road,
and he fled the moment he saw us.
**[17:54] Raeliana**
Th-That's him!
**[17:55] Raeliana**
He was working with
Francis Brooks to abduct me!
**[17:59] Ansley**
We were right to capture him.
**[18:13] Noah**
Each of you will search
your assigned areas.
**[18:16] Noah**
Inform me the moment you
locate Francis Brooks.
**[18:20] Knights**
Right!
**[18:26] Raeliana**
Thank... you.
**[18:34] Raeliana**
*A gun?*
**[18:36] Knight**
There he is!
**[18:49] Raeliana**
Francis Brooks.
**[18:53] Brooks**
R-Raeliana...
**[18:55] Raeliana**
This is all your fault.
**[18:59] Brooks**
Y-You've got it all wrong!
**[19:00] Brooks**
Please, hear me out!
**[19:03] Raeliana**
What have I got wrong?
**[19:05] Brooks**
W-Wait!
**[19:09] (Flashback) Brooks**
If you had just been
a good girl and married me,
**[19:12] (Flashback) Brooks**
everything would have gone smoothly.
**[19:15] Raeliana**
If you hadn't been thinking
about marrying me,
**[19:19] Raeliana**
everything would have gone smoothly.
**[19:34] Raeliana**
Ah, I feel so much better!
**[19:36] Raeliana**
I almost want to take
a picture to remember this!
**[19:39] Raeliana**
Now he'll be in the slammer for life!
**[19:43] Raeliana**
That weight is finally off my chest!
**[19:51] Raeliana**
I'm actually pretty good with a gun...
**[20:03] Raeliana**
* Being short on horses really shouldn't*
* be an excuse to ride double.*
**[20:09] Raeliana**
Noah, this horse seems to be moving
a lot slower than it should.
**[20:14] Noah**
I wonder whose fault that is.
**[20:16] Raeliana**
*Damn it!*

I hate you!
**[20:43] Raeliana**
Noah...
**[20:46] Raeliana**
Thank you... for coming to find me.
**[20:55] Noah**
You're welcome.
**[20:57] Raeliana**
* All I did was thank him.*
* Why do I feel so embarrassed?*
**[21:04] Raeliana**
*I'm suddenly so sleepy...*
**[21:08] Raeliana**
*But I can't... fall asleep here...*
**[21:21] Noah**
*Why... did I feel so angry?*
**[21:26] Noah**
*The death of a woman who has dirt on me*
**[21:30] Noah**

Adam.
**[21:45] Noah**
I want you...
**[21:47] Noah**

**[23:14] Raeliana**
*Morning already?*
**[23:17] Raeliana**
*I wanna sleep a little longer...*

You're awake now?
