1
00:00:02,380 --> 00:00:04,630
Royal Magic Academy
is out for summer vacation.

2
00:00:05,290 --> 00:00:10,000
But today, Lady Grace and I
still have to attend school.

3
00:00:10,630 --> 00:00:14,130
Specifically, we're going to
the underground vault.

4
00:00:15,170 --> 00:00:17,130
It's filled with weapons
and magical gadgets

5
00:00:17,130 --> 00:00:19,960
that have been passed down
through the academy's history.

6
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,710
However, the magic barriers
that were erected to protect the vault

7
00:00:23,710 --> 00:00:27,710
lose most of their power
during the full moon in midsummer.

8
00:00:27,710 --> 00:00:29,330
That's where we, the student council,

9
00:00:29,330 --> 00:00:32,170
step in to perform an inspection
and do some upkeep.

10
00:00:32,170 --> 00:00:34,540
Gosh, this seems like
a big responsibility.

11
00:00:34,710 --> 00:00:37,670
Is it really okay for us
to handle it alone?

12
00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:38,880
Don't fret.

13
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,000
Everything should be fine
if we simply follow the lead

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,920
of our capable upperclassmen.

15
00:00:44,290 --> 00:00:45,790
You're right!

16
00:00:45,790 --> 00:00:50,000
They're all such exceptional people
who really know how to get things done!

17
00:00:51,710 --> 00:00:52,960
The lights are on.

18
00:00:56,170 --> 00:00:58,920
Oh wow, everybody's already here!

19
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,000
Pardon us, gentlemen.

20
00:01:01,170 --> 00:01:03,540
Hey! Glad you two could join us!

21
00:01:03,790 --> 00:01:05,250
Wait, Lucas! Don't mess with that!

22
00:01:07,580 --> 00:01:08,790
Huh?

23
00:01:34,130 --> 00:01:34,460
From

24
00:01:34,460 --> 00:01:36,000
From Bureaucrat

25
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:36,250
From Bureaucrat to

26
00:01:36,250 --> 00:01:37,830
From Bureaucrat to Villainess:

27
00:01:37,830 --> 00:01:39,540
Dad's Been Reincarnated!

28
00:01:41,580 --> 00:01:44,540
From Bureaucrat to Villainess:
Dad's Been Reincarnated!

29
00:01:45,330 --> 00:01:47,170
I can never avoid role playing

30
00:01:47,170 --> 00:01:48,880
No matter how much time passes

31
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,830
I'm a cog in the machine from morning to night

32
00:01:50,830 --> 00:01:52,500
All systems nominal

33
00:01:52,630 --> 00:01:56,040
1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9

34
00:01:56,330 --> 00:01:58,250
There are nothing but villagers

35
00:01:58,250 --> 00:02:00,130
Everywhere I look

36
00:02:00,130 --> 00:02:04,540
While people wish upon a star

37
00:02:04,540 --> 00:02:09,000
God snickers to himself

38
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:12,960
Nonsense

39
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,630
Choose for yourself what to believe in

40
00:02:16,630 --> 00:02:20,420
Don't let loud voices fool you

41
00:02:20,420 --> 00:02:23,330
Not everything in the world is just

42
00:02:23,330 --> 00:02:27,540
Sometimes we have to choke back tears

43
00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:31,420
Ah, you've made your choices in life

44
00:02:31,420 --> 00:02:35,040
To sing of the things that you love

45
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,420
Ah, I'm sure that your voice

46
00:02:38,420 --> 00:02:43,290
Is my shining beacon

47
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,330
Episode 9: Dad Gets Trapped

48
00:02:58,330 --> 00:03:00,170
Where did they all disappear to?

49
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,750
They were in this room a second ago...

50
00:03:02,750 --> 00:03:05,330
I think they're in here, Lady Grace.

51
00:03:05,330 --> 00:03:08,130
It was hard to see clearly
because of that bright flash,

52
00:03:08,130 --> 00:03:13,130
but it looked to me that everyone
got sucked into this strange box thing.

53
00:03:16,250 --> 00:03:17,210
"Box thing"?

54
00:03:17,210 --> 00:03:19,830
But it's obviously
that famous puzzle cube.

55
00:03:19,830 --> 00:03:21,580
Oh, is that so?

56
00:03:21,580 --> 00:03:24,500
Have you ever seen
something like this before, Anna?

57
00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:26,500
No. I can't say that I have.

58
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:29,670
I guess they don't have
that puzzle cube in this world.

59
00:03:29,670 --> 00:03:31,000
Which leads me to believe...

60
00:03:31,330 --> 00:03:34,080
This must be some sort of magical gadget.

61
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,670
We should go seek help
from one of the teachers.

62
00:03:36,670 --> 00:03:38,250
Okay, Lady Grace!

63
00:03:45,460 --> 00:03:47,080
M-my goodness!

64
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,580
Look at the door, Lady Grace!

65
00:03:52,670 --> 00:03:53,790
Oh dear.

66
00:03:53,790 --> 00:03:56,170
This is definitely the work of a spell.

67
00:03:56,170 --> 00:03:58,500
And that cube must be the source of it.

68
00:03:58,500 --> 00:04:03,830
So, it's some kind of magical gadget
that created this bizarro-world we're in?

69
00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:07,500
Perhaps it's a very advanced form of
earth magic that can manipulate space.

70
00:04:07,670 --> 00:04:10,000
But for what purpose?

71
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,710
Hm? The colors are mixed up.

72
00:04:12,710 --> 00:04:15,210
But I'm pretty sure they all matched earlier...

73
00:04:18,500 --> 00:04:19,330
CLICK-CLACK
CLICK-CLACK
CLICK-CLACK

74
00:04:19,330 --> 00:04:22,080
It turns vertically and horizontally?!

75
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,670
Magical gadgets sure are interesting.

76
00:04:23,670 --> 00:04:24,880
I-indeed.

77
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,210
I'm going to try to make one side
a single color.

78
00:04:27,210 --> 00:04:28,500
A single color?

79
00:04:36,130 --> 00:04:37,630
Crown Prince Virgile?!

80
00:04:37,630 --> 00:04:39,250
Thanks for the save, Grace.

81
00:04:39,250 --> 00:04:41,630
Of course.
I'm glad to see that you're all right.

82
00:04:41,630 --> 00:04:45,580
Um, do you know what the deal is
with this box, Your Highness?

83
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,830
It's a magical gadget known as
the "Labyrinth of Trials"

84
00:04:49,830 --> 00:04:52,500
that's been kept here at the academy
for many decades.

85
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,080
Normally, it's securely kept behind
a barrier so that no one can touch it

86
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,000
but, as you know,
the barriers are nearly powerless today.

87
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,540
I've always wanted to fiddle with this!

88
00:05:03,540 --> 00:05:06,080
And make it so all the colors match!

89
00:05:07,290 --> 00:05:09,580
Hey! Glad you two could join us!

90
00:05:09,580 --> 00:05:11,330
Wait, Lucas! Don't mess with that!

91
00:05:16,290 --> 00:05:18,040
Typical Prince Lucas.

92
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,210
So, you're saying he inadvertently

93
00:05:20,210 --> 00:05:23,790
triggered a switch that
activates this "Labyrinth of Trials"?

94
00:05:23,790 --> 00:05:26,420
Well, there must be a way
to deactivate it, right?

95
00:05:26,420 --> 00:05:28,750
Yes. Let's try and find that.

96
00:05:31,750 --> 00:05:32,880
What is that?!

97
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,670
There's something written on it.

98
00:05:36,670 --> 00:05:39,040
Let me take a look. You two stay back.

99
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,080
Be careful, Your Highness.

100
00:05:46,670 --> 00:05:50,670
"What am I? Behold the deluge above
and the blaze below."

101
00:05:52,540 --> 00:05:53,710
Huh?

102
00:05:54,670 --> 00:05:56,710
Wh-what ever could it mean?

103
00:05:56,710 --> 00:05:57,750
Eh?

104
00:05:57,750 --> 00:05:59,000
I'm not sure.

105
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,710
It mentions a "deluge" and a "blaze."

106
00:06:00,710 --> 00:06:02,080
Perhaps some kind of prophecy?

107
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,250
Huh?!

108
00:06:03,460 --> 00:06:05,130
Y-you gotta be kidding me.

109
00:06:05,130 --> 00:06:08,380
They really don't have riddles
in this world?

110
00:06:08,380 --> 00:06:10,170
This one is extra corny, too...

111
00:06:10,170 --> 00:06:12,630
W-well, if I may venture a guess,

112
00:06:12,630 --> 00:06:15,250
this sounds like a brainteaser.

113
00:06:15,250 --> 00:06:16,460
"Brainteaser"?

114
00:06:16,460 --> 00:06:17,330
Yes!

115
00:06:17,330 --> 00:06:21,630
This empty container is probably
some sort of clue to solving it.

116
00:06:21,630 --> 00:06:25,500
And if these trials are part of
Royal Magic Academy's history...

117
00:06:25,500 --> 00:06:26,460
Orion!

118
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,000
...then I assume we should use magic
to show the answer.

119
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:31,290
MASS

120
00:06:31,290 --> 00:06:32,420
Hydromass!

121
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:35,080
Go!

122
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,580
Orion! Change attributes!

123
00:06:42,790 --> 00:06:43,790
Fireball!

124
00:06:44,540 --> 00:06:45,330
Go!

125
00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:46,500
BALL

126
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,040
Filled with water above and
heated by fire below.

127
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,290
The answer is...

128
00:06:54,380 --> 00:06:55,750
a bath, of course!

129
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,750
Oh, I get it!

130
00:06:58,750 --> 00:07:00,290
Lady Grace is a genius!

131
00:07:00,290 --> 00:07:02,540
She solved that problem so quickly!

132
00:07:02,540 --> 00:07:06,330
And because she has mastery of
both fire magic AND water magic,

133
00:07:06,330 --> 00:07:08,170
only she could have gotten it right!

134
00:07:08,170 --> 00:07:09,290
Mm-hmm!

135
00:07:14,210 --> 00:07:18,420
And because she has mastery of
both fire magic AND water magic...

136
00:07:20,500 --> 00:07:23,880
Two different magic attributes
are needed to get the right answer.

137
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,420
Which means this riddle was actually meant

138
00:07:26,420 --> 00:07:29,670
to be solved through the
cooperation of two people...

139
00:07:30,460 --> 00:07:31,880
Aw, crud!

140
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,130
This was almost certainly an event
designed for Anna to solve

141
00:07:36,130 --> 00:07:38,330
with one of her love interests!

142
00:07:38,750 --> 00:07:41,380
Lady Grace! The exit appeared!

143
00:07:41,380 --> 00:07:42,460
Let's go!

144
00:07:42,670 --> 00:07:45,710
Y-yes, of course...

145
00:07:50,710 --> 00:07:52,920
Now we're in a basement?

146
00:07:59,170 --> 00:08:00,080
Your Highness!

147
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,670
He got sucked back inside!

148
00:08:03,750 --> 00:08:06,500
The colors are all out of order again.

149
00:08:06,500 --> 00:08:09,380
It must get reset
every time we pass a trial.

150
00:08:09,380 --> 00:08:10,790
Or so I assume.

151
00:08:11,750 --> 00:08:17,080
I'm betting this event randomly summons
one of the love interests for each trial

152
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,580
so they get an intimacy boost
with Anna after clearing it.

153
00:08:20,580 --> 00:08:22,710
The only problem is,

154
00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:23,880
I already know I can't solve more than one
or two sides of this puzzle cube at best.

155
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:28,250
Had a knock-off
version as a kid
that broke easily

156
00:08:28,250 --> 00:08:31,170
Well, let me try matching one side again.
CLICK-CLACK
CLICK-CLACK
CLICK-CLACK

157
00:08:31,170 --> 00:08:33,750
This time I'll do a different color.

158
00:08:42,210 --> 00:08:43,380
Lord Lambert!

159
00:08:43,380 --> 00:08:46,630
Thanks for getting me out of there,
Miss Grace.

160
00:08:46,630 --> 00:08:49,130
I could see everything
that happened from inside.

161
00:08:49,130 --> 00:08:49,790
Shwip.

162
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:50,540
So then,

163
00:08:50,540 --> 00:08:51,000
RAZZLE
DAZZLE

164
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,880
we just need to solve the trials
to escape this "labyrinth," right?

165
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,130
Please allow me.

166
00:08:55,130 --> 00:08:57,080
Battles of wit are my specialty!

167
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,670
It's wonderful to have you.

168
00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:06,580
This must be the next trial.

169
00:09:07,790 --> 00:09:09,500
"It walks on four legs in the morning,

170
00:09:09,500 --> 00:09:11,130
two legs in the afternoon,

171
00:09:11,130 --> 00:09:12,830
and three legs at night.

172
00:09:13,130 --> 00:09:15,630
Exemplify this creature atop the stones."

173
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,170
Well, that's quite the classical riddle.

174
00:09:18,170 --> 00:09:19,960
The answer is a "human."

175
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,920
But how does exemplifying it
with stones work?

176
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,960
The number of legs it has changes
depending on the time of day?

177
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,040
Maybe it's some kind of monster?

178
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,540
Darn cultural gap!

179
00:09:30,670 --> 00:09:31,670
Oh, well.

180
00:09:31,670 --> 00:09:33,580
It's not their fault
they don't know this one.

181
00:09:33,580 --> 00:09:35,540
I really want for Lambert
to figure out the answer,

182
00:09:35,540 --> 00:09:38,380
so he can further
his relationship with Anna...

183
00:09:38,380 --> 00:09:41,040
W-well, try thinking of it this way.

184
00:09:41,460 --> 00:09:43,630
The words morning, noon,
and night could be

185
00:09:43,630 --> 00:09:47,170
a symbolic representation
of something else... maybe?

186
00:09:47,790 --> 00:09:49,210
Symbolic, huh?

187
00:09:49,210 --> 00:09:54,580
Well, "morning" could be: the sunrise,
waking up, the beginning of a new day...

188
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,460
If morning is "the beginning"
and night is the "the end,"

189
00:09:58,460 --> 00:10:01,330
then maybe we should consider
one day as a "lifetime."

190
00:10:01,330 --> 00:10:01,670
Morning

191
00:10:01,670 --> 00:10:01,920
Noon

192
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:02,040
That would make the answer "human"!

193
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,670
Night

194
00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:04,040
Morning

195
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:06,960
Sh-she's not the
main character for nothing!

196
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:08,130
That makes sense!

197
00:10:08,130 --> 00:10:11,130
Now, we just have to figure out
the stones.

198
00:10:12,290 --> 00:10:14,960
Look at those holes in the ground.
There are sets of four, two, and three.

199
00:10:15,170 --> 00:10:17,250
Along with a pile of stones next to them.

200
00:10:17,250 --> 00:10:18,960
Hold on, I think I've got it!

201
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,540
Arise! Zubenelgenubi!

202
00:10:24,790 --> 00:10:27,000
I'll manipulate the stones
with my earth magic.

203
00:10:28,830 --> 00:10:31,670
Then use them to fill the holes
and create pedestals!

204
00:10:34,210 --> 00:10:36,830
Hmm. His magic is certainly impressive.

205
00:10:36,830 --> 00:10:38,420
But seeing as how his beast is a Sphinx,

206
00:10:38,420 --> 00:10:40,790
he should've been the one
to answer the riddle.

207
00:10:40,790 --> 00:10:41,750
Now I get it!

208
00:10:41,750 --> 00:10:47,210
We just need to stand atop those stones
on four legs, two legs, and three legs!

209
00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:53,130
Lady Grace has to get
on her hands and knees?!

210
00:10:53,130 --> 00:10:56,040
Absolutely not! I can't let that happen!

211
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,960
I'll get on my hands and knees
to represent the morning part!

212
00:11:00,540 --> 00:11:02,580
I made a cane out of stone.

213
00:11:02,580 --> 00:11:06,670
Please take the last spot, Miss Anna,
and stand on three legs.

214
00:11:06,670 --> 00:11:09,040
Huh? But then who's doing the first part?

215
00:11:13,670 --> 00:11:13,880
Just leave that part to me!

216
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,880
KA-WHAM!

217
00:11:16,420 --> 00:11:18,830
L-Lambert!

218
00:11:19,290 --> 00:11:20,790
Four legs in the morning!

219
00:11:21,290 --> 00:11:22,750
Two legs in the afternoon!

220
00:11:23,420 --> 00:11:24,920
And three legs at night!

221
00:11:25,290 --> 00:11:26,670
The answer is: human!

222
00:11:26,670 --> 00:11:28,250
KABLAMO!

223
00:11:31,790 --> 00:11:34,710
Look, Lady Grace!
The door to the next room opened!

224
00:11:34,710 --> 00:11:37,040
Yes. Let's move on, you two.

225
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,790
But before that,
allow me to express my gratitude.

226
00:11:41,460 --> 00:11:42,670
Lord Lambert.

227
00:11:42,670 --> 00:11:45,670
You are the shining example
of what an aristocrat should be.

228
00:11:47,130 --> 00:11:48,630
No thanks necessary.

229
00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:51,380
I just didn't feel right
making either of you get down all fours.

230
00:11:51,380 --> 00:11:52,710
That's all.

231
00:11:52,710 --> 00:11:55,460
However, I'm glad to be of service.

232
00:11:55,630 --> 00:11:58,580
Please summon me again for the next trial!

233
00:11:58,580 --> 00:12:01,040
No, I think we'll have
someone else help out.

234
00:12:01,250 --> 00:12:02,960
Say it ain't so!

235
00:12:06,460 --> 00:12:08,330
Labyrinth of Trials 3
Grace (Kenzaburo)
So, this is the next trial.
The Labyrinth of Trials...

236
00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:12,380
I can't believe it turned into
a summer vacation event!

237
00:12:12,380 --> 00:12:14,420
Normally, this is just a bonus game

238
00:12:14,420 --> 00:12:17,170
that lets you boost the intimacy meter
with random characters.

239
00:12:17,170 --> 00:12:21,380
Either the player solves all 12 riddles,
or matches all sides of the puzzle cube.

240
00:12:21,380 --> 00:12:24,380
But solving the cube
is a huge pain in the butt,

241
00:12:24,380 --> 00:12:27,000
so nobody really bothers to play this part.

242
00:12:27,330 --> 00:12:30,080
I've got a bad feeling
that if they keep this up...

243
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:34,500
the end result is just going to be
everybody falling even harder for Dad!

244
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:37,420
I've gotta find some way
to help him solve the puzzle cube

245
00:12:37,420 --> 00:12:39,960
so we can finish the event
before that happens!

246
00:12:46,380 --> 00:12:47,670
The solution to this trial

247
00:12:47,670 --> 00:12:50,880
is using water magic to create
a lens of ice in that circle

248
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,580
and then letting the sun's rays light
the torch on fire!

249
00:12:52,580 --> 00:12:53,670
Sun                Lens          Torch

250
00:12:53,670 --> 00:12:55,080
I have it all figured out!

251
00:12:55,130 --> 00:12:56,330
WOW

252
00:12:56,670 --> 00:13:00,080
Then, would you kindly put
your water attribute beast to work?

253
00:13:04,420 --> 00:13:07,630
You know, so that we can make
the lens of ice?

254
00:13:08,130 --> 00:13:10,540
I thought I was being clever
by asking him to do it, but...

255
00:13:11,630 --> 00:13:13,750
I-it pains me to say this,

256
00:13:13,750 --> 00:13:15,750
but I have a very real fear of heights!

257
00:13:15,750 --> 00:13:17,250
I wasn't expecting that!

258
00:13:19,250 --> 00:13:21,460
Well, we all have our weaknesses.

259
00:13:21,830 --> 00:13:22,960
Lord Pierre.

260
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,000
I think we need to turn this handle
to adjust the position of the torch.

261
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,460
Understood.

262
00:13:28,750 --> 00:13:29,750
Go!

263
00:13:30,750 --> 00:13:32,790
Heave-ho! Heave-ho!

264
00:13:37,330 --> 00:13:38,920
The torch has been lit!

265
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:40,380
Another trial cleared!

266
00:13:40,630 --> 00:13:42,750
Please forgive my shameful performance.

267
00:13:44,540 --> 00:13:47,670
Lord Pierre was a big help
for figuring out the solution.

268
00:13:47,670 --> 00:13:49,790
He really has nothing to be ashamed of.

269
00:13:49,790 --> 00:13:51,250
Right you are.

270
00:13:51,250 --> 00:13:52,670
What a sweet girl.

271
00:13:52,670 --> 00:13:53,630
Dad Mode

272
00:13:55,670 --> 00:13:56,500
Oh?

273
00:13:56,500 --> 00:13:58,170
I think if I just move this over here...

274
00:14:02,750 --> 00:14:05,040
It's Lord Auguste and Lord Richard!

275
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,920
That's two at once!
You're a genius, Lady Grace!

276
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,750
Not at all. It was just a stroke of luck.

277
00:14:11,750 --> 00:14:13,880
Whew, feels good to be outta there!

278
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,880
You might say that we were stuck
in a very hos-trial environment.

279
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,130
Pun obviously intended.

280
00:14:18,130 --> 00:14:19,540
Good to know you're both okay.

281
00:14:19,540 --> 00:14:22,330
So, what kinda trial is this one?

282
00:14:22,330 --> 00:14:23,960
Let us take a shot at it.

283
00:14:33,500 --> 00:14:36,500
A-am I crazy, or was that Lucas?

284
00:14:37,330 --> 00:14:39,250
Some writing has appeared.

285
00:14:39,710 --> 00:14:42,540
"This hut is home to a traveler.

286
00:14:42,540 --> 00:14:44,880
What makes the traveler shed his cloak?

287
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,500
Prove that it is not the cold winds,
but the shining sun."

288
00:14:48,500 --> 00:14:50,960
I see. This is like that old folktale.

289
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,290
When the north wind blew,

290
00:14:52,290 --> 00:14:54,290
the traveler wrapped his cloak tight
to keep warm,

291
00:14:54,290 --> 00:14:58,500
but when the sun shone instead,
the traveler got too hot and took it off.

292
00:14:58,500 --> 00:15:02,920
They have the fable of "The North Wind
and the Sun" in this world too, huh?

293
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,540
Alrighty, then. Seems simple enough.

294
00:15:05,540 --> 00:15:07,380
Once the traveler comes out of his hut,

295
00:15:07,380 --> 00:15:09,960
Anna will use her magic
to blow some wind on him,

296
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:14,170
then I'll heat him up with my fire magic
until he takes off his cloak.

297
00:15:14,170 --> 00:15:18,040
But how are we supposed to
get the traveler to come out of the hut?

298
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,500
I think that we're supposed to
"trial" this drum on for size.

299
00:15:20,500 --> 00:15:22,040
Pun obviously intended.

300
00:15:27,580 --> 00:15:29,630
You mean lure him out with music?

301
00:15:29,630 --> 00:15:30,500
Yes.

302
00:15:30,500 --> 00:15:34,500
I hear that it's customary in the south
to bid travelers farewell with a song.

303
00:15:34,830 --> 00:15:36,000
The scenery here is similar,

304
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,380
so it might be a hint that we need
to wish him happy trails.

305
00:15:38,380 --> 00:15:39,630
More like happy trials...

306
00:15:41,750 --> 00:15:42,880
The door opened!

307
00:15:44,540 --> 00:15:46,250
It looks like he's coming out!

308
00:15:47,830 --> 00:15:51,580
They call me Richard!
A man of the sword!

309
00:15:51,580 --> 00:15:52,710
SCREECH

310
00:15:55,130 --> 00:15:57,710
He didn't seem to enjoy that at all.

311
00:15:57,710 --> 00:15:59,790
Richard, what the hell was that?

312
00:15:59,790 --> 00:16:02,830
Hold up, do you even know
how to sing a song?

313
00:16:04,710 --> 00:16:05,290
Not really.

314
00:16:05,290 --> 00:16:06,460
Then don't try!

315
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,580
I imagine they don't have karaoke
in this world.

316
00:16:09,580 --> 00:16:11,750
Seeing as how we're short on options...

317
00:16:11,750 --> 00:16:13,920
I'll sing a song for the traveler.

318
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,880
I've never heard Grace
sing before, either.

319
00:16:18,210 --> 00:16:19,960
What kind of song will it be?

320
00:16:23,170 --> 00:16:25,170
I have my fair share
of experience playing drums

321
00:16:25,170 --> 00:16:26,880
thanks to a certain rhythm game.
Get your drumroll on!

322
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,580
And as for the song...

323
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,210
I'll sing a famous classic

324
00:16:30,210 --> 00:16:33,130
that's a hit at karaoke parties with
both otaku and regular folks alike!

325
00:16:34,290 --> 00:16:38,580
The Galaxy Express 999
will take you on a journey

326
00:16:38,580 --> 00:16:38,590
THE GALAXY EXPRESS 999
Lyrics: Yoko Narahashi,

327
00:16:38,590 --> 00:16:42,670
A never ending journey
Keisuke Yamakawa
MUSIC:  Yukihide Takekawa
ARRANGEMENT: Intercept Beats

328
00:16:42,790 --> 00:16:45,000
A journey...

329
00:16:45,670 --> 00:16:49,210
to the stars!

330
00:18:17,290 --> 00:18:19,540
The traveler is really into it.
Here he comes.

331
00:18:19,540 --> 00:18:21,250
All right, Anna. Time for wind magic!

332
00:18:21,250 --> 00:18:22,710
Right, Lord Auguste!

333
00:18:22,710 --> 00:18:23,960
Okay, his cloak is off!

334
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,460
That's another trial cleared!

335
00:18:25,460 --> 00:18:26,330
We did it!

336
00:18:27,130 --> 00:18:29,460
The next door has appeared!

337
00:18:29,460 --> 00:18:32,170
Jeez louise,
this labyrinth just never ends.

338
00:18:32,170 --> 00:18:34,290
How many more trials do we have to clear?

339
00:18:35,330 --> 00:18:37,460
I don't know the answer to that.

340
00:18:37,460 --> 00:18:39,130
But with Lady Grace leading the way,

341
00:18:39,130 --> 00:18:41,380
we'll definitely find our way
out of here eventually!

342
00:18:41,380 --> 00:18:42,710
You said it!

343
00:18:43,380 --> 00:18:44,290
Ting-a-ling

344
00:18:44,290 --> 00:18:46,960
All my worst fears are coming true.

345
00:18:47,460 --> 00:18:49,290
W-well, in any case...

346
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,630
everyone has now been
summoned from the cube

347
00:18:52,630 --> 00:18:55,210
at least once to help us solve a trial.

348
00:18:55,580 --> 00:18:55,590
Womp
Womp

349
00:18:55,590 --> 00:18:57,210
Womp womp!

350
00:18:57,210 --> 00:18:59,920
Wait, really?
That little guy from earlier was Lucas?

351
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:01,790
No. It must have just looked like hi-

352
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,380
Um...

353
00:19:06,380 --> 00:19:09,500
Don't you think we should summon
Prince Lucas one more time?

354
00:19:12,210 --> 00:19:14,290
That's very thoughtful of you, Anna.

355
00:19:14,290 --> 00:19:15,210
However...

356
00:19:15,210 --> 00:19:19,000
To be honest, since Lucas
is difficult to get a read on,

357
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,500
I don't want to count him as one of
Anna's possible future husbands.

358
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:23,710
Dad Mode

359
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,210
That's not necessary.

360
00:19:25,210 --> 00:19:29,500
Unless you have some special reason for
choosing Prince Lucas over the others?

361
00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:30,380
Nope, not at all.

362
00:19:30,380 --> 00:19:30,960
Womp womp!
Womp Womp

363
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:31,960
No Offense Intended

364
00:19:32,210 --> 00:19:34,420
This isn't a very ideal situation, though.

365
00:19:34,420 --> 00:19:35,960
Not only is it inefficient,

366
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,500
but there's a risk that
we could set some unintended flags.

367
00:19:38,500 --> 00:19:39,750
So, I'm guessing...

368
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,710
the best way forward is
to just end the trials now

369
00:19:42,710 --> 00:19:44,750
by solving all six sides of the cube.

370
00:19:44,750 --> 00:19:46,170
Nothing gets past, Dad.

371
00:19:46,170 --> 00:19:49,250
He's already figured out all the key points
to clearing this part of the game.

372
00:19:49,500 --> 00:19:53,080
If only there was some way
that I could help him to solve the cube.

373
00:19:55,670 --> 00:19:57,830
Actually, back when I was in grade school,

374
00:19:57,830 --> 00:20:01,170
I remember trying to get Dad
to help me match all the colors...

375
00:20:01,170 --> 00:20:03,630
The Nostalgic Steam Locomotive

376
00:20:03,670 --> 00:20:07,170
Sorry, sweetie, but I'm not smart enough
to solve every side.

377
00:20:07,170 --> 00:20:10,920
I do know a trick that can help,
but it's kind of cheating.

378
00:20:11,130 --> 00:20:12,000
Huh?

379
00:20:17,170 --> 00:20:18,210
Orion?

380
00:20:18,210 --> 00:20:20,040
What? But how?

381
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,580
Whoa! What's going on?

382
00:20:21,580 --> 00:20:23,960
I-I can actually control
this part of the game?!

383
00:20:26,330 --> 00:20:27,210
Bingo!

384
00:20:40,830 --> 00:20:42,960
Anna! Pick up all those pieces!

385
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,460
Huh? O-oh, right!

386
00:20:46,830 --> 00:20:49,210
If you take off all the outer pieces...

387
00:20:49,710 --> 00:20:53,040
you get left with this,
the core of the puzzle.

388
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,960
Wow! That's cool!

389
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,670
I didn't know
that's what it looked like inside.

390
00:21:00,460 --> 00:21:04,080
Now we can put the pieces back on
so that all the colors match,

391
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:05,670
but it's just like how...

392
00:21:07,670 --> 00:21:09,000
Lady Grace?

393
00:21:11,750 --> 00:21:14,210
N-nevermind! Let's give it a try.

394
00:21:14,210 --> 00:21:15,250
Okay.

395
00:21:17,250 --> 00:21:18,460
All done!

396
00:21:24,790 --> 00:21:27,330
I guess we can't cheat our way out of this.

397
00:21:27,750 --> 00:21:30,630
But then, what did Orion do all that for?

398
00:21:30,630 --> 00:21:32,880
Um, Lady Grace? If I may?

399
00:21:33,420 --> 00:21:35,880
Would you mind letting me
take a crack at solving this?

400
00:21:36,250 --> 00:21:40,500
After watching you match
some of the colors earlier, and now...

401
00:21:41,460 --> 00:21:43,830
Now that I've seen
what it looks like underneath,

402
00:21:43,830 --> 00:21:47,500
I'm pretty sure I can figure
how to get all six sides to match!

403
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,250
Great. Then by all means.

404
00:21:52,250 --> 00:21:53,080
Okay!

405
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,210
The centerpieces don't actually move,

406
00:21:56,210 --> 00:21:59,040
which means that the position
of each color is fixed.

407
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,330
And by using that as a guide,

408
00:22:00,330 --> 00:22:03,170
it's possible to determine the
proper positions of all the pieces!

409
00:22:05,420 --> 00:22:07,330
Instead of trying to solve one side at a time,

410
00:22:07,630 --> 00:22:10,670
I just have to move each piece
towards it's rightful place.

411
00:22:14,670 --> 00:22:17,710
Carefully. Until it all adds up.

412
00:22:24,460 --> 00:22:26,170
We're back!

413
00:22:29,630 --> 00:22:31,920
Well, gentlemen, did you see that?

414
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,040
Anna did it!
She solved every side of the puzzle!

415
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,330
Uh, no! I just tested an idea...

416
00:22:37,710 --> 00:22:40,330
Gosh, I was starting
to worry we'd be stuck forever!

417
00:22:40,330 --> 00:22:41,710
And who's fault is that?!

418
00:22:41,710 --> 00:22:44,460
Yeah, you really saved our bacon.

419
00:22:44,460 --> 00:22:46,460
Aw shucks, it was nothing.

420
00:22:46,460 --> 00:22:47,540
Huzzah!

421
00:22:47,540 --> 00:22:51,630
This should boost the intimacy between
Anna and everyone on the student council!

422
00:22:51,630 --> 00:22:55,130
Orion helped put us on the path
to the proper ending for this scenario

423
00:22:55,130 --> 00:22:57,710
by setting the stage
for Anna to solve the puzzle.

424
00:23:01,330 --> 00:23:03,170
I wouldn't have been able to solve this puzzle

425
00:23:03,170 --> 00:23:06,330
without the hints that
Lady Grace and Orion gave me.

426
00:23:06,330 --> 00:23:08,960
I'm so happy I was able
to come through for them!

427
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,420
You can't fool my sharp eyes.

428
00:23:11,420 --> 00:23:15,460
Although she clearly had all the know-how
needed to solve the puzzle on her own...

429
00:23:15,460 --> 00:23:19,080
...she intentionally left hints to give
Anna the chance to learn instead.

430
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,040
Helping others to be their best.

431
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:22,500
A genuine altruist!

432
00:23:22,750 --> 00:23:24,000
Huh? Huh?!

433
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,460
Overestimation

434
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,790
Ting-a-ling

435
00:23:27,790 --> 00:23:28,790
Wow.

436
00:23:29,130 --> 00:23:33,330
That's the biggest special effect
for an intimacy boost I've ever seen.

437
00:23:36,130 --> 00:23:38,380
Well, we're finally finished with the
inspection and upkeep

438
00:23:38,380 --> 00:23:39,380
of all the magic barriers.

439
00:23:39,380 --> 00:23:41,960
Yeesh, why did I get stuck
doing so much of the work?

440
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,960
It's punishment time!

441
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:44,830
Understand?

442
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Huh? Whuzzat mean?

443
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,630
Need I remind you who got us trapped

444
00:23:47,630 --> 00:23:49,750
in the Labyrinth of Trials
in the first place?

445
00:23:49,750 --> 00:23:52,420
Oh come on, we had a great time!
Although, I didn't do anything but dance.

446
00:23:52,420 --> 00:23:53,380
Ah, I see.

447
00:23:53,380 --> 00:23:53,710
Next Episode:
Dad Cross-dresses

448
00:23:53,710 --> 00:23:55,420
So that traveler really was you...
