To all Walpurgis Royal Academy of Machinart students here,
before we begin celebrating the 100 year anniversary of the construction of our clock tower,
let's hear a few opening remarks.
I now present Headmaster Edward Rutherford.
koi kogareru omoi wa itami suiage
恋い焦がれる想いは 痛み 吸い上げ
This desperate love sucks away the pain
watashi wo ooitsukusu no
私を覆い尽くすの
And engulfs me completely
doredake no namida wo kakushite kita no darou
どれだけの涙を 隠してきたのだろう
I wonder how many of these tears I have hidden from you
ochite yuku shizuku ni utsuru gyokuto
落ちてゆく雫に 映る玉兎
These falling teardrops which reflect the moon
hanabira mo itsuka wa chiriyuki sora ni mau
花びらもいつかは 散りゆき空に舞う
Even the flower petals that are eventually scattered throughout the sky
sugite yuku mujou no imi oshiete
過ぎてゆく無常の 意味 教えて
Tell me the meaning behind the uncertainty of life
sangoya no utage owari hitoshirezu samishikute
三五夜の宴 終わり 人知れず寂しくて
At the end of the harvest moon banquet I'm still lonely inside
akashite wa ikenai himitsu uchiaketaku naru no
明かしてはいけない秘密 打ちあけたくなるの
I want to open up my heart and reveal the secret I mustn't reveal
furerareru hodo chikai
触れられるほど近い
Close enough to touch
kimi he to kono te wo nobashita
君へと この手を伸ばした
I reached my hand out for you
kanashiki sadame yo
悲しきさだめよ
What a sad fate
kimi wo mamoru tame nara kowarete mo ii
君を護るためなら 壊れてもいい
I don't mind breaking if it's to protect you
hakanai omoi nara
儚い想いなら
If these feelings have to be short-lived
semete yume wo misete yo
せめて夢を見せてよ
At least let me have a dream
aishiau yume misete
愛し合う 夢見せて
Let me dream of us being in love
amamitsutsuki ni
あまみつつきに
On the night of the full moon
She jumped?
Yeah.
She jumped off the roof earlier today.
W-What did she look like?
She had light brown hair and was wearing a hat...
R-Raishin?
Right, sorry.
Now that I think of it, she kind of looked like Charl.
Then she was probably Henri.
Henriette Belew.
Belew?
Henri is Tyrant Rex's younger sister.
A transfer student.
That explains it.
Henri has tried to kill herself six times.
However, since the noose's rope would break or someone would give her the antidote in time, she would end up surviving.
Oh?
Dunno if that makes her lucky or unlucky...
Oh... Tyrant Rex has been missing since yesterday.
She didn't come back to the dorm last night.
What?!
What's with the outfit?
I hope you're not going to tell me you want to be discharged.
Sorry for being so predictable.
And do you know what you're saying?
In other words, if I discharge you...
I'll have to rejoin the Evening Party.
By the way, that explosion that blew up the clock tower...
I hear Tyrant Rex did it.
Your face is betraying you.
So, are you the dragon girl's boyfriend?
What if I said "yes"?
Would you discharge me?
Though, obviously I'm not.
Do as you like, idiot.
Why are you so set on this?!
Yaya?
Charlotte-san will be your enemy one day.
Please don't forget your goal.
Or your position.
You're going to look for Tyrant Rex, right?
That's the plan.
I'll help.
I think they can help, too.
That's great.
Thank you.
I see you're back, Lavenna.
I have some amusing news for you.
It seems Second Last is dead set on searching for Charlotte Belew.
Who knew Tyrant Rex-san was so popular?
Go see him.
I don't fancy them nosing about.
And it would inconvenience you, too.
The 40 hours until our appointed time are nearly up.
Raishin, this is the girls dorm!
We'll start by questioning Charl's little sister.
After all, she was acting rather peculiar.
She must know something.
They said... Henri disappeared again...
Her life's in danger, then.
Let's hurry.
Raishin, look...
Pant- Wait, where did you get those?!
Henri's room.
What are you going to do with them?
Raishin!
If you want to smell panties so badly, smell Yaya's!
I never even thought about that!
You're the only one that perverted.
They found Henri...
Already?!
No!
Dogs!
Go away!
Someone help me!
No!
A man!
Listen up, Henriette Belew.
Where's Charl?
Is it true she didn't come back last night?
Does she have anything to do with the clock tower's destruction?
Why are you so eager to die?
Say something.
You know, don't you?
That's too many questions at once.
Henriette-san, please tell us the truth.
You're trying to attract Raishin's attention...
...by faking your own death, aren't you?
Sorry, Frey, but could you try?
You're trying to attract Raishin's attention by faking your own de-
Oh no!
This man's a barbarian!
Hurry up and tell me where Charl is!
If you don't, I'll set these dogs on you.
You're even into bestiality?!
You're the worst kind of pervert!
Forgive me, Mother!
I'm about to be worked over by beasts and a beast-like man!
Raishin!
You're even into that?!
I'm sorry!
You won't kiss Yaya,
but you'll have a threesome with that girl and an animal?!
Yaya would rather kill you and herself than let another woman have you!
Damn!
Frey, follow her!
Raishin.
You're the worst kind of pervert.
Don't you leap to weird conclusions, too!
Get it now?
I'm not a pervert.
I believed in you.
Don't lie.
You blatantly doubted me!
Yes.
The Evening Party's about to start.
You go back.
What about you, Raishin?
I'll try looking for Charl.
I'll be back in time.
But...
It's all right.
Sorry I dragged you along with me.
We'll try the girls dorm again.
Planning on stealing Charlotte-san's panties now?
How perverted do you think I am?
I just want to check into Henri's-
Stop!
Out for a stroll after cutting lessons, Miss Nightwalker?
I've got a mountain of questions for you.
I have nothing to tell you.
This is a warning:
Stay away from Henri.
No.
I'll consider it if you come back without a fight, though.
Idiot.
You're a hopeless idiot!
I see you still can't work anything out from context.
I told you not to get involved with me.
If you keep this up, I'll kill you.
Didn't you promise to protect me the other day?
Shut it!
I said I'll kill you, and I will!
So just stay out of this!
You're the idiot, Charl.
As if I'd back off after seeing that look on your face.
If you're that worried about Raishin, you should go visit him.
I- You-
I-I'm not the slightest bit worried about that idiot!
He's stupidly strong, so it's obvious he's fine!
Don't be stubborn.
The more obstinate you get, the more you reveal your feelings.
My feelings?
You're attracted to Raishin, aren't you?
O-Of course not!
Don't be absurd!
I'll downgrade your lunch from chicken to tinned herring!
Really smelly herring!
Yes, you want to deny it.
Why is that?
I'm not denying-
I mean, if I'd fallen for him,
it would make me seem so fickle.
Humans are such difficult creatures.
But I think you-
Who is it?
Henri...?
You're safe!
Are you well?!
Where have you been all this time?!
Where's Mother?!
What are you doing at the academy?!
Calm down, Charl.
That would fluster anyone, let alone Henri.
It's been a long time, Henri.
Well, in your sense of time, at least.
It's nice to see you, Sigmund.
I'm glad you're safe.
Charl's been worrying about you the entire time.
O-Onee-sama?
Why wouldn't I?
It's not strange to cry, is it?!
What's going on, Henri?
Tell me.
I was given a duty...
"Duty"?
What sort?
Why did you come here?
To... bring you misfortune, Onee-sama!
Raishin, it's getting late.
Are you tired?
No.
Yaya is better than you are.
I guess I'll head to the Evening Party.
Sorry, but I need to put you to work again.
That's fine!
Leave it to Yaya.
Raishin, is something wrong?
Just now, someone...
Never mind.
Let's go.
Silent Roar left, so I suppose we're done for tonight.
Yeah, it doesn't look like number 87 will show up.
Frey-san must have gone home already.
Looks like she did her time first to avoid battling us.
But we were meant to fight number 87 tonight.
Who was that?
You're thinking of Charlotte-san, Raishin.
H-How did you know?!
Stop it!
Onee-sama...
Don't do anything stupid!
Don't do anything stupid...
You said you'd bring me misfortune, right?
Seeing my sister,
finding out my mother is alive...
There's no way that could be unfortunate!
I'm sorry... I'm sorry!
You don't need to worry about a thing.
I'll end all this tomorrow.
I'm sorry!
Don't apologise!
When it's all over, we'll live together again.
Understand me?
Yes.
Come in.
I figured you'd be visiting soon.
Yaya, make us tea.
R-Right.
What do you want to know?
You're a professor, yet you're also with Nectar.
That's how you were able to cover up my excursion,
and why Frey's and Loki's automatons weren't confiscated, isn't it?
I see no need to hide it from you at this point.
But don't let it become public knowledge, either.
If you tell anyone my secret...
I owe you.
I'll take your secret to the grave.
How very noble.
That's not like you.
Who's manipulating Charl?
Oh?
You don't think she destroyed the tower of her own free will?
She's not the type to use Sigmund's power to kill.
But she did, in fact, destroy the tower.
How many died?
Zero.
Though a few were injured.
See.
Who was she after?
You're unusually sharp tonight.
I'm still investigating, but the most likely target...
...was the headmaster, Edward Rutherford.
Does Charl have a grudge against him?
No.
Just as you said, I assume she's being used.
By whom?
Whom do you think?
The only one I know of who might bear a grudge against the headmaster is Felix.
That's right, the Kingsfort family.
A compelling theory.
That's ridiculous!
Why aren't they targeting me, then?!
I'm sure they'd find slaughtering you satisfying.
But there'd be no profit in it.
What do you think would benefit the Kingsforts most right now?
Reinstatement?
Yes.
Sir Walter wants to restore their lost honour and return to political power.
For that to happen, they need to remove the cause of their downfall.
That's ludicrous.
Assassinating the headmaster is like admitting their crimes.
The point here is to turn black into grey.
The Kingsforts are renowned philanthropists.
Meanwhile, the Belews have been shunned ever since the scandal.
"Shunned"?
You don't know?
The earl's prized dog automaton went berserk during the Prince of Wales's hunting party.
Prince Edmund was almost mauled to death.
The House of Belew is an enemy of the Crown now.
Public opinion will favour the side they like best.
And if Charl is the assassin...
The Kingsforts can recapture their former status.
Back out of this.
I can't back out now, especially if the Kingsforts show up.
Don't you get it?
I'm saying there's no proof.
Everything I've said is pure speculation.
If you let your emotions drive you to make a scene,
the Belew sisters will be even worse off.
Then we just need proof, right?
That's right.
If we have proof, there's no problem.
You're still awake, Raishin?
You should go to sleep.
Sure.
Just as soon as you leave my bed.
Yaya.
About your question this afternoon.
Why I'm so dead set on helping Charl...
Why I keep at it even after Shouko-san laid down the law...
I don't know either.
I'm not in love with Charl.
And Sigmund's sure a powerful enemy,
so maybe I'd be better off with them gone.
But if they're in trouble, then I want to help them.
Raishin...
It's not about Charl.
I'd do it for Frey, and obviously for you.
Loki'd probably get pissed off, but...
Yeah, I'd even do it for him too.
And there's Henri to think about...
Yaya will do as you say, Raishin.
I'm sorry I always cause you trouble.
You don't.
Yaya is happy just being by your side.
One of these days, I'll make it up to you.
Raishin!
Does that mean you'll marry Yaya?
Why would it?!
Because you said you'd do anything Yaya asked!
I didn't go that far!
I only said I'd make it up to you!
Fine! Yaya will settle for being your bride!
How is that "settling"?!
You didn't make a single concession!
If you want to make it up to Yaya, let her do all kinds of things to you!
Another sleepless night...
That's because you were even more passionate than usual.
Don't give people the wrong idea!
It was my resistance that was passionate!
Hey, did you hear?
Rumour has it Tyrant Rex busted the tower.
That's casting stones at the school's authority!
It's a capital offence!
Does that mean she was the villain after all?
Thinking about the Cannibal Candy thing,
I can't believe Felix would really kill someone.
If Tyrant Rex is a criminal, then Second Last is fishy too.
He just got here, yet he slithered right into the Evening Party.
Seems a little too convenient-
Don't let it get to you.
Anyway, lessons are suspended for the day.
Let's look for Henri first, and then Charl...
Raishin, what's wrong?
It's Henri.
Is she up to no good again?
Raishin!
The headmaster?!
What's he doing there?
I see. He's inspecting the damage.
Just as you said, I assume she's being used.
The most likely target was the headmaster, Edward Rutherford.
This is bad!
Raishin?
Contact Shouko-san!
No!
Yaya will come too!
Hurry!
I'm counting on you!
She's really going to do it!
Onee-sama, don't!
Onee-sama!
This is bad! Henri's there too!
