1. My left arm!
Copy !req
2. I still have it, right?
Copy !req
3. I went back again...
Copy !req
4. No, maybe I should say I made it back...
Copy !req
5. Oh, sorry. Good morning.
Copy !req
6. Right, I guess you don't remember me...
Copy !req
7. Sorry for the trouble I've caused!
Copy !req
8. Natsuki Subaru will now start over!
Copy !req
9. By the way, what day and time is it?
Copy !req
10. It's my third first day in the Roswaal mansion.
Copy !req
11. That chill I felt...
Copy !req
12. Does that mean I died in my sleep the
first time due to physical weakness?
Copy !req
13. But the second time,
Copy !req
14. there was an attacker.
Copy !req
15. So if I was killed,
Copy !req
16. does that mean the others in
the mansion were targets, too?
Copy !req
17. Because we're involved in Emilia's royal
selection, like at the loot house?
Copy !req
18. But even if I know that,
Copy !req
19. I have no proof to explain it
or any way to avoid it.
Copy !req
20. Worse yet, I didn't see the
attacker's face, or their victim.
Copy !req
21. My death was totally in vain.
Copy !req
22. You're irritating me to death.
Copy !req
23. Either stop it or get blown away.
Copy !req
24. Oh, sorry.
Copy !req
25. But somehow, walking around in circles
makes the gears in my head turn.
Copy !req
26. Cut me some slack, huh?
Copy !req
27. We're tight, aren't we?
Copy !req
28. Exactly what sort of relationship do
you think we have, I suppose?
Copy !req
29. We've only met twice.
Copy !req
30. Well, I won't make trouble for you.
Copy !req
31. Just serve some tea or something,
and let me relax.
Copy !req
32. As if I'll serve you anything, I suppose.
Copy !req
33. Ugh, you're irritating me!
Copy !req
34. What's that book you're reading?
Copy !req
35. It tells how to get rid of bugs that
have gotten into my room, I suppose.
Copy !req
36. You've got bugs in the library? That sucks.
Copy !req
37. What kind of bugs?
Copy !req
38. It's time for you to leave!
Copy !req
39. Your hands have stopped shaking,
Copy !req
40. so you can disguise your fear now, I suppose.
Copy !req
41. You could tell?
Copy !req
42. You were trying to hide it, I suppose.
Copy !req
43. It's quite vexing to be treated
as a mere convenience.
Copy !req
44. You're not nice at all...
Copy !req
45. Thanks for the help, though.
Copy !req
46. I'll be counting on you again.
Copy !req
47. I don't even want to be counted on, I suppose.
Copy !req
48. So don't come in here again!
Copy !req
49. Shoo, shoo.
Copy !req
50. "Shoo, shoo"?
Copy !req
51. Wait, when you said "bugs," did you mean me?!
Copy !req
52. Just get out of here this instant!
Copy !req
53. I-If not for this flower bed, that
would've been instant death...
Copy !req
54. Um...
Copy !req
55. Can I ask if you're all right?
Copy !req
56. Emilia-tan, your kindness is the
one thing that can heal me.
Copy !req
57. You know, Rem just spread manure
in that flower bed yesterday.
Copy !req
58. Augh!
Copy !req
59. Three-second rule! That didn't count!
That didn't count, right?!
Copy !req
60. You know, they say this kind
of thing is actually lucky.
Copy !req
61. Emilia-tan is already shifting
into consolation mode...
Copy !req
62. Puck, wake up.
Copy !req
63. Morning, Lia.
Copy !req
64. Morning, Puck.
Copy !req
65. Sorry to ask after you just woke up,
but could you wash Subaru off?
Copy !req
66. Subaru?
Copy !req
67. Oh! Okay, I'll wash you off.
Copy !req
68. Here!
Copy !req
69. There, all clean!
Copy !req
70. Isn't that nice?
Copy !req
71. I thought I was a goner...
Copy !req
72. Wasn't there some other way to do that?
Copy !req
73. You enjoyed that, didn't you?
Copy !req
74. That's not true at all. Hmph.
Copy !req
75. Punch-backs!
Copy !req
76. Now you've done it!
Copy !req
77. You like that? It's my lethal move,
Make the Cat Cry Ha-Ha!
Copy !req
78. Cut it out!
Copy !req
79. Tail punch!
Copy !req
80. You—
Copy !req
81. And I'll finish you with my paw-pad grind!
Copy !req
82. Grind, grind, grind, grind...
Copy !req
83. Oh, gosh... Sorry, I can't...
Copy !req
84. What are you two doing?
Copy !req
85. Oh, my stomach... I'm dying...
Copy !req
86. Well, now I've bounced back
from my initial bad impression.
Copy !req
87. Thanks for your assistance, Father!
Copy !req
88. Who are you calling "Father"?
Copy !req
89. I won't give you my daughter that easily!
Copy !req
90. Please stop... You're both too funny...
Copy !req
91. Nothing beats your smile, Lia.
Copy !req
92. You agree, right, Subaru?
Copy !req
93. I totally do.
Copy !req
94. To me, Emilia-tan's smile is the first
shining star in the night sky!
Copy !req
95. Not you, too, Subaru...
Copy !req
96. Also, what does "tan" mean?
Where'd it come from?
Copy !req
97. It's what they call a pet name.
Copy !req
98. Just like when Puck calls you "Lia."
Copy !req
99. It's an expression of affection
that shows two people's closeness.
Copy !req
100. I don't remember getting that close to you...
Copy !req
101. That somewhat hurts, but I won't lose heart!
Copy !req
102. Think of it as an advance on our relationship.
Copy !req
103. It means I want us to get close enough
to call each other by pet names.
Copy !req
104. Okay?
Copy !req
105. All right, I'll accept that.
Copy !req
106. No... Don't look at me!
Copy !req
107. I expected her to cringe,
but I got a positive response.
Copy !req
108. What could this mean,
Commentator Puck-san?
Copy !req
109. She doesn't have many friends,
Copy !req
110. so she craves things like nicknames.
Copy !req
111. She's easy to please.
Copy !req
112. My main heroine is easy to please, huh?!
Copy !req
113. Sister, Sister. It's only been a short time,
Copy !req
114. and now our guest looks like a drowned rat.
Copy !req
115. Rem, Rem. In just a short time,
Copy !req
116. our guest has turned into a dirty old washrag.
Copy !req
117. I know I'm a rat. You don't have to tell me.
Copy !req
118. Our lord, Roswaal-sama, has returned.
Copy !req
119. Please come inside.
Copy !req
120. Here we go...
Copy !req
121. My third first meeting with
the lord of the mansion.
Copy !req
122. All I know for certain is that someone
will attack on the fourth night.
Copy !req
123. It'd be ideal if I could let them know,
Copy !req
124. but I can't explain where I got the information,
Copy !req
125. so they might think I'm working
with the assassin.
Copy !req
126. If I knew even just the attacker's physique,
Copy !req
127. it might be a different story...
Copy !req
128. So this time, I'll use these next four days
Copy !req
129. to gather information and
find out who the attacker is.
Copy !req
130. And to do that...
Copy !req
131. You may have any reward you request.
Copy !req
132. Just name your desire.
Copy !req
133. In that case,
Copy !req
134. let me live here as a house guest,
Copy !req
135. and eat and sleep all I want!
Copy !req
136. How am I supposed to
gather information, though?
Copy !req
137. I guess I'll start with some
indirect questioning.
Copy !req
138. That's where I fell...
Copy !req
139. Sorry for the trouble.
Copy !req
140. Of course. If you'll excuse me, sir.
Copy !req
141. Wait...
Copy !req
142. I didn't even get a chance to talk.
Copy !req
143. I don't see anything out of the ordinary...
Copy !req
144. What do you not see?
Copy !req
145. Ros-chi...
Copy !req
146. Don't scare me like that. It's misleading.
Copy !req
147. Magic - died of weakness in sleep
Sound of chains
Roswaal's chains X
Misleading!!
Copy !req
148. Come in!
Copy !req
149. Here you go, sir.
Copy !req
150. Oh, thanks. Want to drink it with me?
Copy !req
151. No, thank you, sir.
Copy !req
152. Hey, you can be a little friendlier
to me if you want...
Copy !req
153. Well, it's my first day.
I guess that's expected.
Copy !req
154. Yo!
Copy !req
155. You come in here every day
without even knocking.
Copy !req
156. You truly have no manners whatsoever.
Copy !req
157. It would be in your best interest to leave
before you get blown away, I suppose.
Copy !req
158. Whoa! Wait, wait!
Copy !req
159. I just want to ask you something!
Copy !req
160. Is there any magic that weakens someone,
and kills them as if putting them to sleep?
Copy !req
161. If I must answer, then yes, there is.
Copy !req
162. There is?
Copy !req
163. But it's not so much magic
as it is a curse, I suppose.
Copy !req
164. There are many such things among the
spells that shamans specialize in.
Copy !req
165. Shamans?
Copy !req
166. Magicians.
Copy !req
167. However, shamans are a subclass
of magic and spirit arts users
Copy !req
168. that originate in the northern
nation of Gusteco, I suppose.
Copy !req
169. They're all quite useless, and not
to be taken seriously.
Copy !req
170. But there is an easier method
than a curse, I suppose.
Copy !req
171. Easier?
Copy !req
172. I believe you've already experienced it.
Copy !req
173. Wait, you mean...
Copy !req
174. That mana drain you did against
my will could actually kill me?!
Copy !req
175. Mana is also one's very life force.
Copy !req
176. If you continually suck it out by force,
one could die of weakness, I suppose.
Copy !req
177. Wait... You're not the one
who killed me, are you?
Copy !req
178. Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm busy.
Copy !req
179. I couldn't even spare the effort to kill you.
Copy !req
180. Is this what you want?
Copy !req
181. So, uh...
Copy !req
182. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
183. Can anyone do that mana-sucking thing?
Copy !req
184. That's an absolutely terrible
way to put it, I suppose.
Copy !req
185. In this mansion, only Bubby and I can.
Copy !req
186. Even Roswaal can't.
Copy !req
187. Oh... It's actually a pretty rare skill, then.
Copy !req
188. Don't suck up that stuff too much.
Copy !req
189. Especially from me.
Copy !req
190. I'm really short on blood right now,
so I'd die in a heartbeat.
Copy !req
191. Yes, all your organs were restored,
Copy !req
192. but your blood wasn't replaced, I suppose.
Copy !req
193. Well, I have no obligation to do that, anyway.
Copy !req
194. My organs?
Copy !req
195. The way you said that
Copy !req
196. makes it sound like you were the
one who healed my wounds.
Copy !req
197. Trying to take the credit from Emilia-tan
makes you look bad!
Copy !req
198. That silly girl doesn't have the power
to heal fatal wounds yet, I suppose.
Copy !req
199. Huh?
Copy !req
200. She and Bubby stabilized you,
and I healed your wounds.
Copy !req
201. What?!
Copy !req
202. F-For real? You're kidding, right?
Copy !req
203. Of course... It's a lie.
Copy !req
204. It was a lie! It's not nice to lie!
Copy !req
205. No lying!
Copy !req
206. Shut up, I suppose!
Copy !req
207. You're too averse to the truth.
Copy !req
208. Someone not worth saving
should disappear, I suppose!
Copy !req
209. Um...
Copy !req
210. Once again, are you all right?
Copy !req
211. So, in the end, the key words
are "curse" and "chains."
Copy !req
212. I don't know anything else.
Copy !req
213. If the conditions for Return
by Death are the same,
Copy !req
214. I died three times in the capital,
and survived the fourth time.
Copy !req
215. But that doesn't mean I intend to
treat this as a throwaway life.
Copy !req
216. That's why I asked Puck to keep
an eye on Emilia for me.
Copy !req
217. Sure.
Copy !req
218. This is all really vague,
Copy !req
219. but I can tell you're asking
out of concern for Lia.
Copy !req
220. On the morning of the fourth day,
I'll leave here and—
Copy !req
221. Magic - died of weakness in sleep
Sound of chains
Roswaal's chains X
Misleading!!
Copy !req
222. Pardon my intrusion, sir.
Copy !req
223. I see you really are studying, sir.
Copy !req
224. That's super rude!
Copy !req
225. I am a guest here, you know.
Copy !req
226. You're a freeloader calling yourself a guest.
Copy !req
227. That's how I perceive it, sir.
Copy !req
228. Thanks.
Copy !req
229. Ugh, it's still nasty.
Copy !req
230. You're going to incur the wrath of
the finest tea leaves in the mansion.
Copy !req
231. Slacking off right in front of your guest?
Copy !req
232. I have no words for that nerve of yours.
Copy !req
233. You were the one who told me
to be more friendly toward you.
Copy !req
234. I only responded to your demand.
Copy !req
235. So? How is your studying coming along?
Copy !req
236. Not bad.
Copy !req
237. I can read simple fairy tales like these now.
Copy !req
238. It's interesting how the morals differ
just slightly from what I know.
Copy !req
239. It's like true cross-cultural communication.
Copy !req
240. Maybe I should import a few
fairy tales from my homeland.
Copy !req
241. Like "The Red Ogre Who Cried."
Copy !req
242. The Red Ogre Who Cried?
Copy !req
243. Want me to tell it to you?
Copy !req
244. All right, your attention, please.
Copy !req
245. Once upon a time, there lived
a red ogre and a blue ogre.
Copy !req
246. The two were very good friends.
Copy !req
247. The red ogre wanted to be friends
with the people of the village.
Copy !req
248. But the people were too scared
to get close to him.
Copy !req
249. The blue ogre couldn't bear to watch,
Copy !req
250. so he devised a plan to help his friend.
Copy !req
251. "I'll make a ruckus in the village,
so you come and stop me.
Copy !req
252. Then the villagers will be sure to trust you."
Copy !req
253. The plan worked, and the red
ogre befriended the humans.
Copy !req
254. But as time passed,
something began to worry him.
Copy !req
255. His friend, the blue ogre,
no longer came to visit him.
Copy !req
256. One day, the red ogre went
to the blue ogre's house.
Copy !req
257. The door was tightly shut, and a
letter was affixed to it.
Copy !req
258. The letter said...
Copy !req
259. "Red Ogre-kun, please have fun
with your human friends.
Copy !req
260. If I continue to hang around you,
Copy !req
261. they might think you're a bad ogre, too.
Copy !req
262. So I've decided to go on a journey,
Copy !req
263. but I will never forget you.
Copy !req
264. Goodbye. Please take care of yourself.
Copy !req
265. Your friend forever...
Copy !req
266. Blue Ogre."
Copy !req
267. The red ogre read the letter in
silence over and over again.
Copy !req
268. Tears fell as he began to cry.
Copy !req
269. The end.
Copy !req
270. That's a sad story.
Copy !req
271. Yeah, it is.
Copy !req
272. But I think it's a sweet story, too.
Copy !req
273. I think all the characters in it are just stupid.
Copy !req
274. The red ogre, the blue ogre,
and the villagers, too.
Copy !req
275. That's kind of a harsh critique.
Copy !req
276. I mean, I'm not denying it, but...
Copy !req
277. That's why I both love and hate that story.
Copy !req
278. The blue ogre's self-sacrifice
is really appealing,
Copy !req
279. but it's stupid because
he gets nothing out of it.
Copy !req
280. I'm the type that wants to be
rewarded for the effort I put in.
Copy !req
281. Is that what you think of the blue ogre?
Copy !req
282. But it's the red ogre that I think is beyond help.
Copy !req
283. He dragged the blue ogre into his own desires,
Copy !req
284. and as a result, he lost nothing.
Copy !req
285. Only the blue ogre lost anything.
Copy !req
286. Then what do you think the
two ogres should have done?
Copy !req
287. If the red ogre truly wanted
to befriend the humans,
Copy !req
288. he should have broken off his
horns and gone to them.
Copy !req
289. He should have done that before the
blue ogre couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Copy !req
290. That's a pretty extreme opinion, too...
Copy !req
291. Is it?
Copy !req
292. Which of the two ogres would
you rather be friends with?
Copy !req
293. Which of the two?
Copy !req
294. The red ogre, who can only wish
and be taken care of by others,
Copy !req
295. or the stupid blue ogre, who
basks in his own self-sacrifice?
Copy !req
296. What a foolish answer.
Copy !req
297. If you want to befriend both,
Copy !req
298. you must be the indecisive, adulterous type.
Copy !req
299. You'll regret it one day.
Copy !req
300. I don't recall it being that kind of story!
Copy !req
301. Putting aside your homeland's fairy tales,
Copy !req
302. did any of these stories leave
an impression on you?
Copy !req
303. Well, the ones that interested me most
Copy !req
304. were the one in the middle, about the dragon,
Copy !req
305. and the one at the end, about the witch.
Copy !req
306. I finally know where the name "Dragon's
Kingdom of Lugunica" came from.
Copy !req
307. Oh?
Copy !req
308. It said the royal family signed
a covenant with a dragon,
Copy !req
309. so it's more a folk tale
than a fairy tale, right?
Copy !req
310. Yes, since it's true.
Copy !req
311. The noble dragon still protects
this nation from far away,
Copy !req
312. beyond a great waterfall.
Copy !req
313. It will do so until its contract with
the royal family is fulfilled.
Copy !req
314. Wait, didn't the royal family that signed
the contract recently die out?
Copy !req
315. Yes, quite abruptly.
Copy !req
316. No one knows what the dragon wants.
Copy !req
317. In the nation's current situation,
only the gods know...
Copy !req
318. No, only the dragon knows
what the dragon will do, sir.
Copy !req
319. Oh, by the way, about this witch story...
Copy !req
320. I don't want to discuss that.
Copy !req
321. I've stayed here too long.
Copy !req
322. I'll come again to notify you
when dinner is ready, sir.
Copy !req
323. O-Okay.
Copy !req
324. That story you told me about the ogres...
Copy !req
325. Don't tell it to Rem.
Copy !req
326. I'm certain she wouldn't like it.
Copy !req
327. "A scary witch... A terrifying witch.
Copy !req
328. To even speak her name was terrifying.
Copy !req
329. Everyone called her
Copy !req
330. the Witch of Envy."
Copy !req
331. Are you sure about this?
Copy !req
332. We could call a dragon-drawn carriage
to take you to the capital...
Copy !req
333. I'll be fine.
Copy !req
334. One day, when I'm the kind of strong,
smart, rich man who's worthy of you,
Copy !req
335. I'll come on a white horse to take you away.
Copy !req
336. Do you have a handkerchief?
Copy !req
337. And water, and lagumite ore, and, and...
Copy !req
338. Will you be able to sleep by yourself?
Copy !req
339. Do you think you're my mom?!
Copy !req
340. Well, then, Subaru-kun, be well.
Copy !req
341. And don't lose the gift I gave you.
Copy !req
342. I added a little something equivalent to our
three days' worth of memories together.
Copy !req
343. Hush money, right? Don't worry, I get it.
Copy !req
344. I won't say anything I shouldn't.
I swear to the dragon.
Copy !req
345. Talking with you makes any evil scheme
seem to lose its purpose.
Copy !req
346. And in this nation, swearing to the dragon
is the highest form of promise.
Copy !req
347. Make sure you don't forget it.
Copy !req
348. Got it!
Copy !req
349. You two helped me out a ton.
Copy !req
350. Especially you, Rem-rin.
Thanks for all the great food.
Copy !req
351. And Ram-chi...
Copy !req
352. Yeah! You're good at cleaning toilets, right?
Copy !req
353. Sister, Sister. Our guest is
hopelessly bad at flattery.
Copy !req
354. Rem, Rem. Our guest has a
fatal lack of skill in flattery.
Copy !req
355. Oh, shut up!
Copy !req
356. I seriously couldn't think of anything!
Copy !req
357. Thanks, though.
Copy !req
358. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
359. Subaru!
Copy !req
360. Thank you for everything.
Copy !req
361. If you need anything, come visit anytime.
Copy !req
362. Sure!
Copy !req
363. Thanks, Emilia-tan!
Copy !req
364. Okay, this is it.
Copy !req
365. I can see Emilia's room
especially well from here.
Copy !req
366. Now all that's left is to wait
for something to happen...
Copy !req
367. And stop it.
Copy !req
368. She'd probably get mad at me
for using it this way...
Copy !req
369. I hope she does...
Copy !req
370. I don't want to die.
Copy !req
371. I don't want them to die.
