1. The truth is
Copy !req
2. I'm an inquisitor.
Copy !req
3. Is that so?
Copy !req
4. I guess that would be
a hard thing to tell your daughter.
Copy !req
5. Oh, my!
Copy !req
6. So you understand?
Copy !req
7. That's exactly right.
Copy !req
8. I'm proud of what I do,
Copy !req
9. but the details are what they are,
so I just keep putting it off.
Copy !req
10. Setting that aside,
Copy !req
11. we recently received a letter
that contained a certain tip.
Copy !req
12. The writer of the letter
Copy !req
13. came across a diary full of codes
on their visit to town.
Copy !req
14. Thinking it was suspicious,
they decoded it using frequency analysis,
Copy !req
15. and it turned out that the diary
dealt mostly with advanced astronomy.
Copy !req
16. However, in its latter pages,
Copy !req
17. the diary suddenly began to propose
an abnormal model of the cosmos.
Copy !req
18. My superiors felt that
the tip was reliable,
Copy !req
19. and they dispatched me.
Copy !req
20. But unluckily for me,
the sender didn't identify themselves.
Copy !req
21. When that happens,
I have to gather the breadcrumbs myself.
Copy !req
22. I'll get to the point.
Copy !req
23. I know it's sudden,
Copy !req
24. but would you be willing
to show me your research?
Copy !req
25. Don't worry.
I don't suspect you of anything.
Copy !req
26. You're friends with my daughter after all.
Copy !req
27. Even so, my orders call for me
to investigate any researchers I find.
Copy !req
28. Uh, well, that's...
Copy !req
29. Of course, I don't mind.
Copy !req
30. Then please lead the way.
Copy !req
31. This is my study.
Copy !req
32. I see.
Copy !req
33. Then if you don't mind...
Copy !req
34. Huh?
Copy !req
35. This is...
Copy !req
36. It certainly is cluttered in here.
Copy !req
37. I apologize.
Copy !req
38. Not at all.
Copy !req
39. I'm the one making the sudden intrusion.
Copy !req
40. By the way, what do you research mainly?
Copy !req
41. Astrology.
Copy !req
42. I'm looking into
the misfortunes that occur
Copy !req
43. when Mars is in opposition to the Sun.
Copy !req
44. I see.
Copy !req
45. Hey, that's—
Copy !req
46. Well?
Copy !req
47. Yes. This is acceptable.
Copy !req
48. Right.
Copy !req
49. All clear.
Copy !req
50. No problems here, either.
Copy !req
51. Well then.
I'm sorry for taking up your time.
Copy !req
52. Everything looks fine.
Copy !req
53. Yes. Naturally.
Copy !req
54. ON THE MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH
Copy !req
55. EPISODE 12
HELIOCENTRISM IS MY FAITH
Copy !req
56. Dear me, it's all so harmless.
I apologize for suspecting you.
Copy !req
57. I feel rather silly now.
Copy !req
58. Did I offend you?
Copy !req
59. No. It's fine.
Copy !req
60. I really do apologize.
Copy !req
61. Thanks for your cooperation.
Copy !req
62. Farewell.
Copy !req
63. I thought we were done for.
Copy !req
64. We'd better speed up our plans.
Copy !req
65. I'll leave here tomorrow or the day after.
Copy !req
66. You should too.
Copy !req
67. R-Right.
Copy !req
68. Luck was on our side today.
Copy !req
69. I may have hidden the documents,
Copy !req
70. but I didn't expect him
to leave so easily.
Copy !req
71. Yeah.
Copy !req
72. He didn't seem to notice
the necklace either.
Copy !req
73. - The necklace?
- Huh?
Copy !req
74. You know, that one.
Copy !req
75. What about this?
Copy !req
76. Uh, didn't I tell you?
Copy !req
77. Well...
Copy !req
78. In my previous job,
I took part in a heretic transfer.
Copy !req
79. That necklace belonged to the heretic.
Copy !req
80. The inquisitor who accompanied us
Copy !req
81. was that man, Nowak.
Copy !req
82. A lot happened,
and I ended up fleeing to this village.
Copy !req
83. But just before my escape,
the heretic gave me that.
Copy !req
84. Still, Nowak didn't react,
Copy !req
85. so he must have forgotten.
Copy !req
86. With all the chaos,
he may not have seen me take it.
Copy !req
87. Get ready within the next hour.
Copy !req
88. Huh?
Copy !req
89. We're leaving immediately.
Copy !req
90. It's probably okay, but just in case,
Copy !req
91. we should assume the worst.
Copy !req
92. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
93. Forget the apologies. Just get ready.
Copy !req
94. I've finished getting ready.
Copy !req
95. Good.
Copy !req
96. Take the tunnel and head for the stable.
Copy !req
97. There, steal a horse
and head to your destination.
Copy !req
98. What are you going to do, Badeni?
Copy !req
99. Once the documents are fully burned,
Copy !req
100. I'll write a letter and then leave.
Copy !req
101. Then that means
Copy !req
102. we won't see each other for a while.
Copy !req
103. Indeed.
Copy !req
104. Let's meet again as the world turns.
Copy !req
105. Are you going to burn everything?
Copy !req
106. Yes.
Copy !req
107. I'll take what I need most,
but it's dangerous to leave the rest.
Copy !req
108. But even if it were safe,
I wouldn't leave anything.
Copy !req
109. As I said before,
this work must be mine alone.
Copy !req
110. I won't hand over my materials to anyone.
Copy !req
111. What is it?
Copy !req
112. Do you have a complaint now?
Copy !req
113. N-No, I would never...
Copy !req
114. Actually,
Copy !req
115. I do.
Copy !req
116. Um, if you keep isolating yourself,
Copy !req
117. won't it be harder to notice mistakes?
Copy !req
118. And isn't that harmful to research?
Copy !req
119. Oh, I know it's not my place!
Copy !req
120. I don't understand academic matters.
Copy !req
121. I'm merely rambling. Just forget—
Copy !req
122. I'm listening.
Copy !req
123. Count Piast
Copy !req
124. was dissatisfied with the errors
and complications of the current model,
Copy !req
125. so he tried to discover a new one, right?
Copy !req
126. Not only that,
Copy !req
127. he made one that was highly accurate.
Copy !req
128. That is, compared
to other geocentric models.
Copy !req
129. So what separates us
Copy !req
130. from Count Piast?
Copy !req
131. You can challenge
mathematical errors on paper.
Copy !req
132. But without firm proof,
Copy !req
133. in the end,
Copy !req
134. no one can claim with certainty
that heliocentrism is the truth.
Copy !req
135. In that case,
Copy !req
136. the difference
between us and him isn't much.
Copy !req
137. Even so,
Copy !req
138. he believed in the possibility
that he was wrong and accepted the truth.
Copy !req
139. Are you trying to say
that heliocentrism is wrong?
Copy !req
140. N-No! That's not what I mean.
Copy !req
141. All I'm trying to say is...
Copy !req
142. Isn't it important to acknowledge
that you might be wrong?
Copy !req
143. Especially when it comes to stuff
like scholarship and research.
Copy !req
144. If you don't allow others
to dispute your ideas,
Copy !req
145. it's more like...
Copy !req
146. faith.
Copy !req
147. The sanctity of faith
goes beyond logic or reason,
Copy !req
148. but shouldn't it be kept separate
from research?
Copy !req
149. That's why it's important to have
other people who can offer criticism.
Copy !req
150. You shouldn't shut them out.
Copy !req
151. What made you...
Copy !req
152. What made you think that?
Copy !req
153. Long ago,
Copy !req
154. I learned that such a thing is hope.
Copy !req
155. Huh?
Copy !req
156. My former work mentor
and the heretic who gave me the necklace...
Copy !req
157. After they encountered the stone chest,
Copy !req
158. they both found hope
in passing the torch to others.
Copy !req
159. And to my surprise,
Copy !req
160. that was more important to them
than going to heaven.
Copy !req
161. It puzzled me for the longest time.
Copy !req
162. Passing the torch or trusting others
might sound nice in theory,
Copy !req
163. but you'll never know
if the other person will really carry on.
Copy !req
164. Worse than that,
Copy !req
165. they might reject your plans in the end.
Copy !req
166. In that sense, entrusting things to others
is scary, not hopeful.
Copy !req
167. But in fact,
Copy !req
168. maybe having others refute
or correct your ideas
Copy !req
169. is what passing the torch really means.
Copy !req
170. Things don't go as planned.
Copy !req
171. Misunderstandings
or unexpected events occur.
Copy !req
172. The believer is opposed by the heretic.
Copy !req
173. Heliocentrism is opposed by
the geocentric model.
Copy !req
174. The twists brought on
by those outside elements
Copy !req
175. might be the very thing
that gives you hope
Copy !req
176. to move forward.
Copy !req
177. Oh, but when it comes to heliocentrism,
Copy !req
178. it's too dangerous
to tell others, of course.
Copy !req
179. I see what you mean.
Copy !req
180. However, I don't agree.
Copy !req
181. What you're saying
is incredibly dangerous.
Copy !req
182. As I said, I'm only speaking
about your stance toward research.
Copy !req
183. When it comes to faith—
Copy !req
184. It's the stance that is dangerous.
Copy !req
185. Applying that stance to research
Copy !req
186. would mean abandoning the absolute truth,
which should always be our goal.
Copy !req
187. Scholars would swim forever
in the waters of imperfection.
Copy !req
188. You're asking us to accept
such a tragedy with open arms?
Copy !req
189. Yes.
Copy !req
190. Isn't that better
Copy !req
191. than forever believing in a mistake?
Copy !req
192. We'll debate that thought at a later date.
Copy !req
193. It's pointless to stay here any longer.
Copy !req
194. Okay.
Copy !req
195. Well then. Until we meet again.
Copy !req
196. Right.
Copy !req
197. Thank you for all you've done for me.
Copy !req
198. What is it?
Copy !req
199. Aren't you going?
Copy !req
200. - They're coming.
- Huh?
Copy !req
201. A carriage is coming.
Copy !req
202. It's the inquisitors' carriage.
Copy !req
203. ON THE MOVEMENTS OF THE EARTH
Copy !req
204. Orb.
Copy !req
205. How long before they reach here?
Copy !req
206. Um... probably four or five minutes.
Copy !req
207. Damn it!
Copy !req
208. Throw that in the fire!
Then hit the tunnel and run!
Copy !req
209. But...
Copy !req
210. I'll follow when I gather my things.
Copy !req
211. Uh, right!
Copy !req
212. Didn't you say
you were going to write a letter?
Copy !req
213. Huh? There's no time for that!
Copy !req
214. Can we have a little chat?
Copy !req
215. Uh, yes.
Copy !req
216. I'm not trying to push
my personal concerns onto you,
Copy !req
217. but this particular case is special to me.
Copy !req
218. It's because
Copy !req
219. the heretics we're pursuing
Copy !req
220. have approached my family.
Copy !req
221. So, at the moment,
Copy !req
222. I'm in a peculiar mood.
Copy !req
223. To put it simply...
Copy !req
224. I'm pissed off.
Copy !req
225. Was that letter something important?
Copy !req
226. Of course it was!
Copy !req
227. I had a plan!
Copy !req
228. But there's no use now.
Copy !req
229. Besides, just writing it is pointless!
Copy !req
230. As of yesterday, I could have sent it.
Copy !req
231. But after today, all letters to the church
will be intercepted.
Copy !req
232. Even if I managed to write it,
Copy !req
233. I'd have to take it to the church
via the tunnel.
Copy !req
234. There's no time for that!
Copy !req
235. I don't even have time
to explain this to you!
Copy !req
236. Even if you give up on that,
Copy !req
237. we only have five minutes.
Copy !req
238. What?
Copy !req
239. How long would you need to flee safely?
Copy !req
240. It's meaningless to speculate!
Copy !req
241. How many minutes do you need?
Copy !req
242. Around ten minutes.
Copy !req
243. Hey.
Copy !req
244. Do you intend to die?
Copy !req
245. I don't know.
Copy !req
246. But I do know that I can buy time.
Copy !req
247. Are you that stupid?
Copy !req
248. You'd be drawing your sword on clergymen.
Copy !req
249. At this rate,
they're likely to capture us both.
Copy !req
250. If that's the case,
at least one of us should get away.
Copy !req
251. I don't think you understand.
Copy !req
252. You'd almost certainly
Copy !req
253. be condemning yourself to hell.
Copy !req
254. Why should you condemn your soul
for the sake of this research?
Copy !req
255. Before, you asked me
why I decided to write a book.
Copy !req
256. Huh?
Copy !req
257. It's probably because
Copy !req
258. when I learned
the meaning of heliocentrism,
Copy !req
259. it inspired me.
Copy !req
260. That inspiration has grown day by day.
Copy !req
261. What are you trying to say?
Copy !req
262. I'm saying that
Copy !req
263. there was a time not long ago
when I was desperate to leave for heaven.
Copy !req
264. But now, if it will protect
that inspiration,
Copy !req
265. I'm ready for hell.
Copy !req
266. This is what it means...
to learn something, I think.
Copy !req
267. You're making a mistake.
Copy !req
268. Am I?
Copy !req
269. Yes. You are.
Copy !req
270. It's people like you
Copy !req
271. who have never studied theology
and are ignorant of hell
Copy !req
272. that tend to make bad choices.
Copy !req
273. Even if that's true,
Copy !req
274. I won't regret it.
Copy !req
275. Have you forgotten
the speech you gave me earlier?
Copy !req
276. You said it was important
to accept criticism from others.
Copy !req
277. To involve yourself in such a way
with a scholarly theory like heliocentrism
Copy !req
278. is a grave mistake.
Copy !req
279. Yes. You're right.
Copy !req
280. But even so...
Copy !req
281. Heliocentrism is my faith.
Copy !req
282. Wait.
Copy !req
283. Lord God,
Copy !req
284. our savior has promised us.
Copy !req
285. "I am the resurrection and the life:
Copy !req
286. he that believeth on me,
though he die, yet shall he live."
Copy !req
287. O merciful God,
Copy !req
288. take this man whom you have called
from life to yourself.
Copy !req
289. Welcome him safely
to the promised kingdom.
Copy !req
290. Absolve him of every bond of sin,
Copy !req
291. and let him live among those
you have chosen in eternal light.
Copy !req
292. May he be raised in the glory
of the resurrection.
Copy !req
293. In the name of our Lord.
Copy !req
294. Amen.
Copy !req
295. Whoa!
Copy !req
296. Oh?
Copy !req
297. Well, well...
Copy !req
298. I wasn't expecting a welcome party.
Copy !req
299. Ready your fire.
Copy !req
300. Give yourself up!
Copy !req
301. Why do all this
just for that stupid theory?
Copy !req
302. Because I want to have hope
for this world.
Copy !req
303. I won't surrender, but couldn't we talk?
Copy !req
304. Fire at will.
Copy !req
305. By the way, do you have battle experience?
Copy !req
306. It's my first time.
Copy !req
307. This is the best I get, huh?
Copy !req
308. What?
Copy !req
309. Forget it. It's nothing.
Copy !req
310. Sir, I am here to fulfill my duty.
Copy !req
311. Yeah, I suppose.
Copy !req
312. But fulfilling your duty
comes down to individual will.
Copy !req
313. The will to put your life in danger.
Copy !req
314. Are you ready for that?
Copy !req
315. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
316. Years ago, my sibling
was killed by a madman.
Copy !req
317. The investigation concluded that
the killer was possessed by the devil.
Copy !req
318. I wouldn't say I harbor a grudge,
Copy !req
319. but I'm prepared to kill heretics.
Copy !req
320. That's good to hear.
Copy !req
321. But it's not quite what I meant.
Copy !req
322. I was once a mercenary.
Copy !req
323. You might look down on such bloody work,
Copy !req
324. but it taught me many things.
Copy !req
325. A truly strong warrior
is not one who's ready to kill.
Copy !req
326. It's one who is ready to die.
Copy !req
327. In battle, crude determination
is superior to superficial skill.
Copy !req
328. So what I'm really asking
is if you're prepared to die
Copy !req
329. for your murdered sibling's sake.
Copy !req
330. Yes!
Copy !req
331. Seriously?
Copy !req
332. Come on...
Copy !req
333. This is why new recruits are useless.
Copy !req
334. You're not prepared to die, are you?
Copy !req
335. We're about to find out.
Copy !req
