Open the door! Let me out of here!

Open the door!

It's too late.

It is not too late!

I have to get to Rem right now!

Your reason for returning to that room has just disappeared, I suppose.

To hell with that!

Why are you trying to save me?

Because you look so pathetic, I can't bear the sight of you.

But why me?

If you really wanted to save someone,

why didn't you save them?

You could have done it!

Why should I have to do that?

I have no reason to save anyone, I suppose.

Then you have no reason to save me, either!

Who asked you to save me?

Do you have any idea what you've done?

Everything might be ruined now because of you!

Everything will be rewritten,

and this horrible present will be set in stone!

You should have just killed me!

I don't understand.

I don't understand!

Fine, then.

If you're not going to help, then…

No!

Why are you…

I won't let you, I suppose!

I won't let you die here!

Let me go right now!

Why is that here?

Why?

Why are you holding that book like it's so precious?

That's not the same book the witch cultists had, is it?

It only looks like one, right?

Why aren't you denying it?

I haven't been commanded to answer that question.

What's written in that book?

What's it telling you to do?

That question isn't in the book either, I suppose.

Are you not allowed to do anything that's not in the book?

So when you gave me cover earlier--

That question isn't here, either.

Then why are you talking to me right now?

-Why did you save me from death's door? -I don't know!

Are you saying you can't do anything that's not written in that book?

Yes, I suppose!

That's right.

Everything I do is in accordance with the Gospel's guidance, I suppose!

That is the meaning of my life!

That is the purpose of my existence!

Did you try to save me because the book told you to?

And when you saved me after I had been cursed,

and when you helped me when I couldn't even stand up?

And when we goofed off, yelled at each other, acted like dorks together--

I told you!

Yes, that is why, I suppose!

Everything I've done, everything I've seen,

everything I've said…

All of it was written in this book!

As if you ever could have moved my heart on your own, I suppose!

Don't be so full of yourself, human!

Everything I do is for Mother!

You are just…

A human!

Don't touch me, human!

I don't even know you, I suppose, human!

I hate you!

I hate you!

Back then, I was so happy.

What a shame.

What?

Beatrice…

How wonderful. He truly cares about you.

Emilia…

My restart point hasn't changed.

This is the third time.

-Emilia! -No. You're wrong!

-It wasn't me! -Stay strong!

-Help me, Puck. -Emilia!

-Puck! -Emilia!

Subaru…

I'm sorry, Subaru, for losing my composure like that.

Hey, it's fine.

But I…

Just rest for tonight. We can talk tomorrow.

Right.

Ram, take care of Emilia.

All that's left is to talk to Roswaal.

I've got to make sure to ask him about Beatrice this time

since I couldn't last time.

-Natsuki, are you listening? -And… What?

Natsuki, are you all right?

What?

Yes, of course! I'm just great! Perfect, in fact!

Does anything look off to you?

No, nothing looks off at all.

You appear very calm.

Right? So--

Even with Lady Emilia in her current state.

So am I wrong to find your calmness concerning?

What?

You think I'm too calm right now?

Yes. I don't think that's a bad thing.

But…

No, thanks to you, I'm more confident now.

Thanks, Otto.

What?

That proves I can still

think rationally about things, even after all that's happened.

No, but…

There's a huge difference between looking calm

and being able to think about things rationally, in my opinion.

This is Roswaal we're talking about.

I can't let him keep dodging the subject this time.

-Hey, you got a second? -What?

Garfiel?

You're not one to fall into patterns easily, huh?

What?

Before, you would have just left if I hadn't called out to you.

I've got something important to do, you know.

What? Are you talking about your shady scheme with that bastard?

Don't call it a shady scheme!

So what did you want?

Is it about the Sanctuary?

Why else do you think I would want to talk to you?

Well, you might want some information on Ram.

She prefers tall guys who wear clown makeup--

Cut it out! You're depressing me!

So on that note, we're going to go chat about our love lives!

Natsuki, but…

Come on, Otto. Save it for tomorrow, okay?

All right, fine.

I'll be counting on you to deal with the margrave tomorrow.

What?

This isn't the place. Follow me.

Another change in the course of events?

So…

How long has it been since you last saw Frederica?

And why the hell should I tell you that?

I just thought it couldn't hurt to ask.

She has already left this place.

She is none of my concern anymore.

That's the thing.

I know you're Frederica's brother,

which means she meets the mixed-blood requirement, too.

So why isn't she here?

Why are you asking me?

The barrier won't open unless someone passes the trial.

Nothing will change that.

Knowing why will give us more options.

I'm the type that wants to have

all the information before I rack my brain for answers.

We're here.

What?

You're the one who wanted to talk to me, Ryuzu?

You may interpret it that way if you wish.

Young Gar is my attendant, after all.

Is this where you come to relax or something?

If you invited me to a place like this,

then are you going to start sharing your secrets with me soon?

What a smooth talker you are.

So? Are you going to answer my question for me?

You mean the reason why Frederica left the Sanctuary?

What do you intend to do with that information?

I'll use it to get everyone out of the Sanctuary.

Then no one will have to undergo the trial, right?

Logically speaking, yes, you are right.

But why are you so obstinate about avoiding the trial?

Because I don't want to force Emilia to go through it.

It's my own purely selfish reason.

That may work for the trial,

but it does not do to constantly run away from hardship--

I'm not talking about running away.

It may not be now, but Emilia will eventually have to face her past.

You want to give her an escape,

but not from the things that will hurt her the most?

She'll beat it without running away.

I have complete faith that the girl I fell for can pull that off.

Damn it. Tell him, old hag!

Tell him it's just like a gadgy gwadzeadd trying to hide in the mountains!

I appreciate it, but I have no idea what you just said.

What Young Gar is trying to say is that

there is no convenient path we can use to escape.

Frederica's exit was something of an exception.

She does not meet the conditions for being held within the barrier.

Conditions to be held within the barrier?

So there's something else besides being half?

No, there are no exceptions.

Then…

The barrier determines one's mixed-blood status by the amount

of each race in their blood.

If they possess human and nonhuman blood in equal amounts,

they will be held within the barrier.

However…

If you're less than a half-blood, like, a quarter-blood, it can't hold you?

That means…

We have different dads.

I'm Garfiel Tinsel.

I'm pretty sure she uses a different surname.

I am Frederica Baumann.

She was born to a human mother and a mixed-blood father.

Therefore, she can enter and leave the forest at will.

Enter and leave at will?

Don't make me laugh!

She hasn't been back here in over ten years!

Frederica abandoned this place!

-Young Gar… -Damn it.

And now you know.

I apologize for making you listen so long to learn so little.

No.

It's a lot better than just being stuck with unusable options forever.

But I guess we still have to pass the trial, then.

Garfiel.

Ryuzu.

I would like to offer a suggestion.

A suggestion?

I'm on my way to get Roswaal and Emilia on board with this,

but it's really important,

so I would appreciate it if you wouldn't tell anyone.

What?

Very well. We will tell no one.

Tell us whatever you wish.

I want to undergo the trial in Emilia's place.

-What? -What?

When I entered the graveyard to help Emilia,

I came back unharmed, right?

That's because I have the qualification to undergo the trial.

On top of that, I've already passed one of them.

You passed the trial?

"Things have gotten complicated." Is that what you're thinking, Ryuzu?

I cannot deny that you took the very words out of my mouth.

But I now understand your point.

Young Su, there is something important I must tell you, too.

What?

Right now, I need you to keep quiet and behave yourself.

What?

I know you must be wondering why this is happening.

But I will not ask for your forgiveness.

As promised, I will tell no one what you told me.

I swear it on the name of Ryuzu Shima.

You awake now?

I'll untie you.

And just so you know, there's no use crying for help.

Someone, help!

I just said it won't work!

This is a part of the Sanctuary no one knows about!

There's no need to save someone who wants to die, right?

I don't know what you're talking about!

You guys are pretty famous for being a bunch of weirdos.

Wait. I seriously don't get…

Don't play dumb!

There's miasma oozing out of every pore in your body!

-You're a witch cultist! -What?

The smell's been stronger since you came out of the graveyard.

Not many people have this much miasma.

So I was going to let you go if you swore you wouldn't try anything,

but you say you want to undergo the trial in the princess's place?

That's no joke!

You can smell the witch's scent on me?

That's a funny thing to call it!

It just fits, doesn't it? "The witch's scent."

What do you want to do in that graveyard?

What are you planning?

It can't be anything good if the witch's tomb is part of it.

Why trap me in here, then?

Why not kill me?

Because you have a way of winning people over!

I don't want to kill you

and have it blow up in my face like the fall of the Tesla Fortress!

Then what are you going to do with me?

For now, I'll just say it's all up to Lady Emilia.

Not happening!

I won't let you kill yourself, either!

I don't have a damn clue what you're thinking,

but what pisses me off more than anything is that attitude of yours!

Your eyes look just like that bastard's, Roswaal!

Don't you dare try anything funny!

-Subaru! -Subaru!

-Subaru! -Where are you?

Subaru!

-Subaru! -Subaru!

Ram, anything?

-Sadly, no. -Subaru!

Anyone who wanders into the Lost Forest at night alone

isn't going to make it back easy.

-Alone? -What?

Never mind.

Puck, why won't you come out?

Hey, man. Come with me for a second.

What?

Don't you go running your mouth.

As long as you don't…

He tied me up way too tight!

I don't have time to waste being stuck in here!

Think.

What I know right now is that

whoever's attacking the mansion will wait until someone arrives back there.

As of now, the longest it has been was five days.

Beatrice…

Have you really just been following the Gospel's commands all this time?

I told you!

Yes, that is why, I suppose!

Even if that's true,

I would give anything to hear your voice right now.

I suspected you would be in a miserable state,

but this is even worse than I thought.

-What? -Oh, you need to keep quiet.

I'm walking a dangerous tightrope here.

I don't want the lookout catching me now.

You and I both never know when to quit, do we?

In any case, I'm relieved you're still alive, Natsuki.

How long has it been?

Three days.

It's nighttime and time for the trial.

Three days?

And the trial is still going on?

Lady Emilia has a plan in mind.

What has happened while I've been away?

Word of your disappearance spread quickly,

causing panic throughout the community.

Lady Emilia has especially struggled to keep her composure.

She actually declined to attempt the trial the next day.

Emilia?

Everyone has been looking all over for you, but with no luck.

So the margrave told Lady Emilia that they should prioritize

the liberation of the Sanctuary so that a search party can be assembled.

A search party?

Did Emilia agree to that?

She said the margrave gave her some sort of formal oath.

So Emilia has desperately attempted the trial again yesterday and today,

and it seems she's deeply despondent as her attempts continue to fail.

There's one thing that keeps bothering me.

What is it?

Well, why do you keep talking as if you heard all this secondhand?

Oh, you're asking about that?

It's rather hard to say this, honestly.

The truth is, Garfiel also has his eye on me,

so I've been running all around trying to avoid him, too.

What?

I was there the last time you two saw each other, remember?

It's natural that he would suspect me.

And then he said to me…

that if I didn't tell anyone you had met with him, he wouldn't hurt me.

He showed me what looked like a glowing stone as collateral.

And you turned that down?

Oh, God…

And now Garfiel's after you?

Yes, so I picked up all this information while on the run.

I did hear it secondhand.

Though it's pretty funny how long it got drawn out,

considering this option was more fun.

Quit picking on me! Are you insane?

Why did you do that?

What?

I really am grateful that you came to save me.

Frankly, until I saw your face, I was thinking I'd be better off dead.

But…

I can't see why you would help me.

Listen, Natsuki.

Is it really such a strange thing

to try to help a friend?

What?

Why are you standing there like a statue with such a shocked face?

Well, you just brought up someone I don't know out of the blue.

I don't know who "Eugene" is.

You got every single part of that wrong!

I didn't say "Eugene," I said "friend!"

You know, friend!

"Friend"? Who is whose friend?

You are my friend!

I mean, it's true that I came here with you

because it served my interests, too!

First, there was the oil, then you saved me from the witch's cult,

and then there was promise of getting me an audience with the margrave, but…

When you take all those favors out of the picture,

I just think of you as a friend, Natsuki.

Though I'm not very fond of the way you treat me.

But I figure that's just how close we are as friends.

What?

Friends? Really?

I get it now! Otto, you wanted to be friends with me?

Friends. Oh, damn it.

-Otto, I swear, man… -Hey! That hurts!

What are you doing?

Okay, fine! I was stupid to even say it!

I knew you would laugh at me!

Well, I mean, how could I not laugh?

You're not the one who's crazy.

I'm just floored by my own stupidity.

I'm so exasperated with myself, I have to laugh!

Natsuki?

Sorry.

You really are my friend, Otto.

Thanks for coming to save me.

Garfiel is at the graveyard right now,

so we can get you out of the barrier.

But the question is whether that's even possible.

No need to worry about that.

I have a very reliable helper lined up.

A helper?

I was starting to wonder if you'd arrive before I became an old granny.

Of course, even as an old granny, I would still be cute.

What?
