Original subtitles

There is no one by the name of Charlotte E Firobisher in the royal family.

No one?

Lady Charlotte.

His Highness... Father did not recognize me?

He didn’t recognize Mother or me as his family?

Why?!

Charlotte...

Episode 8

Departure –Resolution–

Is there nothing we can do?

Unfortunately, as a city we can’t go against the order to deliver them to the Empire.

That’s horrible! The Empire said that they would be punished!

Clearly, the Empire is in the wrong here.

They’re intentionally trying to erase Charlotte’s existence.

We’re not foolish enough to believe every word coming from the Empire.

Then we should firmly refuse delivering them.

We’ll protect Charlotte in this town.

Please don’t ask for the impossible.

Why?

The Empire is treating them as criminals.

Giving them shelter wouldn’t come without endangering the city.

B-But we’re the only ones who can save Charlotte and the girls!

Enough, Cecily! This is a serious political issue.

Commander!

Do you want this city to wage war against the Empire?

Please understand.

Do you remember, Aria?

The words I said when I faced Jack Stmder.

Yeah, what you said...

was that you would protect everyone.

I won’t give up!

Charlotte, dear, it’s bad for your health if you don’t eat.

I’m not hungry, so...

Here, Lady Charlotte. This meat is really tasty!

Excuse me.

Charlotte, dear?

Lady Charlotte!

It’s fine. This was clearly a misunderstanding.

That’s right. The Empire would never abandon Lady Charlotte!

We will protect you. I’m sure everything will turn out alright so please, don’t cry...

You’re a mess, Cecily. Drawing water is basic stuff.

If you can’t even pull that off, then your future is bleak.

You’re one to say, with that much training...

Stupid, if you don’t get stronger, you can’t protect those important to you.

Look! I’ve got an egg!

We’ll cheer up Lady Charlotte with this.

Eggs are a good source of strength.

Alright, I’m getting some, too!

Wait, they can’t lay that many eggs at—

I’ll make them lay more eggs with my spirit! My spirit!

Hey, wait! What are you going to do?

They will be punished under the Imperial Law.

Seek refuge in a militaristic state?

That seems to be our only choice.

The country said they accept those conditions.

Give me a break!

Why that?

We can’t consent to becoming refugees!

I’ll say it once more: There’s no other way.

But, that way, all we’re doing is cornering Charlotte and the girls!

Can’t you think of something else?

There’s no time for that.

But...

The Empire already mobilized the army. We’re under serious pressure.

Thus far he has yet to make a move, but we can’t tell when they’ll become hostile.

Please understand that we can not give them a pretext to assault this town.

We will return the 4 captured magic swords and report to the Empire that you have escaped.

But if you let us escape...

The Empire will blame us.

Well, it should be fine if I apologize as the Captain of the Knight Brigade.

I will do that much for you.

This is the very best we can do as a city.

But the militaristic state won’t accept us unconditionally.

Yes. The conditions are that you offer the military all you know about the Empire.

To betray the Empire?

Betray our motherland?

How will it be?

I can’t answer that!

Charlotte...

Cecily, do you also agree with us seeking refuge?

No, but...

We didn’t come here to flee to a martial dictatorship!

But you can’t return to the Empire.

Then how about we stay here?

If we shelter you, we’ll endanger this city.

Do you want to put the weight of your lives and this town on Cecily’s shoulders?

I don’t want you to die. I don’t want to let you die.

We live, and then what?

Are you saying that we should discard Mother’s wish and sell out the Empire just to live longer?

Are you saying that I should choose that?

Charlotte...

We won’t let that happen!

We want Lady Charlotte to be happy!

We won’t stand for refuge or anything like that!

Let’s go, Lady Charlotte!

Charlotte!

It must have been hard.

You could say they have nowhere to go.

I know that pain all too well.

I believe anything is better than dying.

If only I could make Charlotte and the others see that...

That would be impossible.

Why?

Telling them not to die without giving them a reason to live isn’t persuasive at all.

A reason to live?

What do you want to happen to them?

Would you be satisfied with just ridding this town of a nuisance?

No! I just want Charlotte and the others to live happily!

To eat with everyone and laugh... That’s all I really want.

But they can’t live in this city.

They can’t return to the Empire either. And thinking they’d take refuge in the militaristic state is just...

Well, if it were me, as long as I could be with Luke and Cecily, I wouldn’t mind where I was.

Be it in the Empire or in the militaristic state, as long as I can be like this with everyone.

Am I wrong?

No, that’s right! It’s exactly that!

The answer was already in front of me.

Can you convey that properly?

I can convey it, alright!

You better hurry, then.

You can’t tell what a cornered person will do once provoked.

If only there was a way to make the Empire recognize Lady Charlotte.

We might be executed.

We’ve made our decision.

We’ll just do what we can.

For Lady Charlotte!

My...

Cecily hasn’t returned yet?

Doris and the girls, too...

Say, Charlotte, my dear, do you know where everyone is?

No, I don’t know.

What are they doing in this rain?

Hurry, Penelope!

We’re almost there.

Someone’s there!

The guards were all supposed to be put asleep.

Cecily?

Why are you here?

I didn’t want to believe it and I wanted to be mistaken.

You can still make it. Return to the mansion with me.

Sorry, but that won’t do.

This is our only choice. Bringing the magic sword and the blacksmith as gifts.

We’re returning to the Empire with Lady Charlotte.

Cool down your heads! Did Charlotte wish for this?

No, but we don’t want to see Lady Charlotte sad any longer.

You are wrong.

I don’t want to hear that from you, you incompetent fool!

That’s right.

I’m incompetent, as always.

But...

What’s wrong with that?

You won’t leave no matter what, right?

Alright, then fetch your magic swords.

It would be unfair to be the only one with a magic sword.

What are you thinking?

This doesn’t adhere to reason.

Even if there’s a handicap? We’ve beaten you to a pulp before.

Not at all.

Then why?

You still don’t get it?

I will say it out loudly this once.

I’m stupid!

Say your prayers, Cecily.

Unfortunately, besides being stupid, I’m also stubborn!

Lompaya’s range is infinite. There’s no escape!

There’s no use in doing that!

Wind, pierce through!

If a sword is used as a spear, it can pierce anything. You taught me that technique.

Margot!

How dare you do that to Margot!

No one can beat me in close combat!

Please, give up.

You’re a sore loser.

What terrible rain.

I looked around, but couldn’t find them.

Really? How strange.

Talking about strange, the storehouse was wide open and a few weapons were missing.

My, could it be a thief?

Charlotte, dear!

Doris! Margot! Penelope!

It’s useless!

A magic sword’s power won’t work on the Brock Knife.

I know that, but casting wind from it’s blade isn’t all there is to a magic sword.

Let’s go, Aria!

No way!

I can’t defeat you in close combat.

The magic wind won’t work either.

Then, I will become the arrow that pierces you.

That’s the decision I made with Aria.

I’m sorry.

Penelope!

Cecily, you bastard!

So you’re here. Let’s settle the score!

As you wish!

Doris...

I will definitely take Aria, even if I have to change her personality!

You think the Empire will accept Charlotte if you bring the magic sword?

Is this the best way?

Shut up!

Why don’t you get it?

Shut it! We want Lady Charlotte to smile!

This is all we can do! Please understand!

Don’t be naïve!

The Empire will kill Charlotte! They will never save her!

The Empire abandoned her!

Shut up!

You should also abandon the Empire!

Discard the name of “E!”

And think!

Think of a way of making Charlotte happy! The four of you!

I will...

I will make Lady Charlotte’s dream come true!

Come to your senses!

Doris! Margot! Penelope!

Charlotte...

Take refuge in the militaristic state.

Then... Then what of Mother?

That was my only reason of living!

How should I live from now on?

Can’t you see this?

These three were desperate for your sake. And you still can’t see anything besides your mother?

Are Doris and the girls nothing more than servants to you?

No, Doris and the girls are my precious-

That’s right. Your family is right here.

Start a new life, with the four of you.

Are you saying I should betray the Empire, my Mother’s will, and live in shame?

What’s wrong with living in shame?

No matter how, just live, survive, and grasp your own happiness.

I believe that’s the way to comply with every wish.

I should take refuge, no matter what?

If you decline, then take your blade and fight for your own future!

I wanted to make Mother happy.

I wanted to be connected with Mother.

I loved Mother.

As of now, Charlotte E Firobisher is dead.

Stop playing tough.

The Empire has taken the four magic swords and withdrawn. There’s nothing to worry about anymore.

I’m thankful for the mayor’s arrangement.

I also apologize for the trouble I have brought upon you all.

Don’t worry about it.

Give my regards to Luke as well.

Okay.

Charlotte, dear, here’s some food to share with everyone.

It’s my masterpiece. Savor it well.

Thank you.

We’ll miss you.

Madam Lucy!

Take care, alright? And don’t be reckless.

Yes.

Now we won’t have our big breasted toy.

That’s what you have to say in the very end?

We will also grow fine breasts!

Come on!

Hey, Cecily!

Let’s meet somewhere again.

I’m sure we will!

Cecily, I will tell you as well.

There was a man who gave us the four magic swords and incited us to come after you.

Who was he?

His name was Siegfried.

Siegfried.

He’s rumored to train strange beings.

Lady Charlotte, let’s go!

Alright!

Well, thank you for your care.

Take care.

Have a safe journey.

I have a fine family. There’s nothing to worry about.

I’ll...

I’ll discard the name of “E.”

I salute the mother who gave birth to you and the three who’ve raised you.

Let's go!

Oh!

Yeah!

Oh!

sotto sotto soba ni imasu soyokaze no you ni

Softly, softly, by my side, like a gentle breeze.

shun to suru namida nante kawakaseru you ni

The tears that flowed out were blown dry, just like that.

POKKETTO no naka no chiisa na negai wa

Because the tiny wish inside my pocket

anata no egao dakara

is your smile.

Yeah!

hashire hashire motto hayaku

Run, run, even faster.

kanashii koto atta toki mo

Even when something sad happens,

kakete yukou kono michi wo

let's dash down this road.

chizu nante itsumo kokoro ni aru

Things like maps are always in our hearts.

ashita wa HAPPII DEI

Tomorrow is a happy day.

Happy day.

kirari MIRAKURU HAPPII DEI

Sparkle, miraculous, happy day.

Oh!

Yay!
