00:10.880 --> 00:12.000
<b>Hey...</b>

00:14.250 --> 00:15.330
<b>Come on in.</b>

00:15.920 --> 00:17.170
<b>You know what?</b>

00:17.670 --> 00:18.920
<b>What is this about?</b>

00:23.880 --> 00:27.540
<b>I heard about something incredibly shocking...</b>

02:01.500 --> 02:05.000
<b>The Gray Witch</b>

02:44.880 --> 02:47.580
<b>The venue is on the other side of that waterway.</b>

02:47.580 --> 02:48.630
<b>Oh, yeah?</b>

02:49.000 --> 02:50.630
<b>What's over there?</b>

02:51.540 --> 02:52.960
<b>A library.</b>

02:53.580 --> 02:54.580
<b>And over there,</b>

02:54.580 --> 02:57.040
<b>there's no worry of running into
the house mother out on patrol.</b>

03:33.630 --> 03:36.440
<b>To all of you students representing d'Autriche,</b>

03:36.440 --> 03:38.440
<b>I am grateful you accepted the invitation</b>

03:38.440 --> 03:42.930
<b>from
St. Friedeswiede and are here with us this evening.</b>

03:42.930 --> 03:44.250
<b>The feeling is mutual.</b>

03:46.380 --> 03:47.920
<b>Thank you for inviting us.</b>

03:51.500 --> 03:53.500
<b>Well then, everyone, raise a glass.</b>

03:54.960 --> 03:59.210
<b>We shall now hold the unofficial closing
party for the Luna Lumiere tournament!</b>

04:00.210 --> 04:01.210
<b>Alcohol...?</b>

04:01.210 --> 04:02.880
<b>How indecent.</b>

04:02.880 --> 04:04.500
<b>It's juice, of course.</b>

04:06.790 --> 04:08.040
<b>It's good.</b>

04:13.830 --> 04:15.270
<b>All of you new students,</b>

04:15.710 --> 04:19.330
<b>even more so than the storied social
gathering hosted by the academy,</b>

04:19.670 --> 04:24.380
<b>this unofficial closing party that we
ourselves put on is worth your while.</b>

04:25.500 --> 04:27.210
<b>Take it all in and see for yourselves.</b>

04:27.210 --> 04:29.330
<b>Keira is just lovely!</b>

04:30.710 --> 04:34.000
<b>Much like the official gathering,
with its long-standing history,</b>

04:34.000 --> 04:36.290
<b>this night party is also a traditional event,</b>

04:36.920 --> 04:41.250
<b>that has been continuously handed
down by our seniors at the school.</b>

04:41.830 --> 04:45.680
<b>Shenfa is once again looking
even more beautiful tonight.</b>

04:58.380 --> 04:59.880
<b>I had no idea.</b>

04:59.880 --> 05:02.000
<b>Never imagined that there was
an unofficial closing party...</b>

05:02.000 --> 05:04.750
<b>Secrets make my heart race with excitement, you know?</b>

05:09.280 --> 05:11.170
<b>You enjoying yourselves?</b>

05:13.630 --> 05:15.540
<b>The two Miss Angels.</b>

05:22.080 --> 05:26.040
<b>You know, my victory this time wasn't a
show of praise for my actual ability.</b>

05:26.420 --> 05:28.460
<b>I can't call it a true victory.</b>

05:29.040 --> 05:33.530
<b>Next time, I will sear into all of your minds a result that is</b>

05:33.530 --> 05:36.040
<b>clear as day for any who witness it.</b>

05:36.040 --> 05:37.710
<b>I-I see.</b>

05:38.170 --> 05:40.330
<b>With all due respect, Keira...</b>

05:40.710 --> 05:44.420
<b>Speaking as a lover of numerous novels,</b>

05:44.420 --> 05:50.080
<b>talking with so much confidence about a
match that is still in the distant future</b>

05:50.080 --> 05:52.960
<b>is something one should be most careful about.</b>

05:53.670 --> 05:54.830
<b>Is that so?</b>

05:55.170 --> 05:57.790
<b>Well, when one makes a declaration of their own victory,</b>

05:57.790 --> 05:59.750
<b>it livens things up all the more, right?</b>

06:05.250 --> 06:09.830
<b>That Keira isn't the type to belie expectations, you know?</b>

06:09.830 --> 06:11.960
<b>I wonder how things will turn out next year...</b>

06:11.960 --> 06:16.420
<b>No matter what situation we find ourselves in,
I'll do a great job of supporting you, Lita.</b>

06:20.000 --> 06:22.290
<b>Thank you, Elli!</b>

06:30.570 --> 06:34.280
<b>It's no use thinking about next year at this time.</b>

06:34.710 --> 06:38.040
<b>Right now, it's okay to just kick
up your heels for the moment.</b>

06:38.460 --> 06:40.000
<b>You do have a point.</b>

06:45.830 --> 06:47.460
<b>What do you wanna do for fun?</b>

06:47.790 --> 06:48.590
<b>Cards?</b>

06:48.590 --> 06:51.750
<b>A pillow fight would also be a standard way to go.</b>

06:52.170 --> 06:54.540
<b>After all, I'd be too embarrassed to
do that back inside a dorm room.</b>

06:54.540 --> 07:00.000
<b>Ahem! Shouldn't we be a bit more ladylike?</b>

07:00.580 --> 07:03.130
<b>As far as what's done at times like this,</b>

07:03.830 --> 07:06.420
<b>the answer is... talking about our love lives.</b>

07:06.420 --> 07:07.130
<b>Huh?</b>

07:07.130 --> 07:07.830
<b>"Love"?</b>

07:08.880 --> 07:10.990
<b>Alright, you go first, Melida.</b>

07:10.990 --> 07:13.540
<b>U-uh, well...</b>

07:13.540 --> 07:15.830
<b>A partner like that is something...</b>

07:15.830 --> 07:17.750
<b>I've never had so far.</b>

07:27.000 --> 07:28.540
<b>"So far"...</b>

07:30.130 --> 07:32.240
<b>Uh, what about yourself Mule?</b>

07:32.240 --> 07:34.290
<b>Naturally, I'm in the same boat as you.</b>

07:35.040 --> 07:36.540
<b>And you, Sala?</b>

07:37.040 --> 07:41.460
<b>I'm shy around people I don't know well,
so romantic love is a bridge too far...</b>

07:43.080 --> 07:45.470
<b>I guess things aren't about to get exciting, after all.</b>

07:45.470 --> 07:47.780
<b>Why aren't you asking me?</b>

07:48.130 --> 07:49.500
<b>Let me see...</b>

07:49.500 --> 07:52.080
<b>Then, let's talk about one of the other standard topics:</b>

07:52.080 --> 07:53.660
<b>Scary stories.</b>

07:54.460 --> 07:59.210
<b>Uh, my "little sister" isn't good with that kind of stuff.</b>

07:59.670 --> 08:00.970
<b>Relax.</b>

08:00.970 --> 08:06.130
<b>While what I have in mind is a scary story,
it's also a sorrowful love story, you see.</b>

08:08.210 --> 08:11.560
<b>This story is famous in
Aquarimus Heavenly-Mirror District,</b>

08:11.560 --> 08:15.290
<b>which is renowned as the city of water.</b>

08:16.210 --> 08:18.220
<b>Oh, that story...</b>

08:20.210 --> 08:21.250
<b>A long time ago,</b>

08:21.250 --> 08:25.460
<b>there was a husband and wife who moved
to Aquarimus Heavenly-Mirror District.</b>

08:26.000 --> 08:30.880
<b>Fleeing the land of eternal night,
they came to Flandore seeking a fresh start.</b>

08:31.750 --> 08:37.170
<b>However, due to groundless prejudice,
the people of Flandore repeatedly attacked them.</b>

08:37.670 --> 08:39.670
<b>The husband, who was unable to find adequate employment</b>

08:39.670 --> 08:42.280
<b>and was driven into a corner day after day,</b>

08:42.280 --> 08:45.790
<b>ultimately came to treat his wife harshly.</b>

08:46.750 --> 08:50.000
<b>Even so, the wife endured it all with selfless devotion.</b>

08:50.960 --> 08:52.210
<b>However, one particular day...</b>

08:52.210 --> 08:55.000
<b>the husband, who had at last lost his mind,</b>

08:55.000 --> 08:57.420
<b>slashed his wife to death with a knife,</b>

08:57.420 --> 09:00.380
<b>and proceeded to cut out her heart!</b>

09:01.540 --> 09:03.040
<b>Having by now calmed down,</b>

09:03.040 --> 09:05.750
<b>the husband became terrified of what he had done,</b>

09:05.750 --> 09:08.520
<b>and he ran off with the heart he had dug out.</b>

09:09.210 --> 09:15.000
<b>However, while he was on his way he stumbled
and ended up dropping his wife's heart.</b>

09:16.040 --> 09:19.290
<b>At that moment, a voice said, "My dear, are you hurt?"</b>

09:20.000 --> 09:22.790
<b>Believe it or not, the heart had spoken to the man!</b>

09:23.750 --> 09:26.250
<b>The man finally came to his senses.</b>

09:26.920 --> 09:28.170
<b>It was then that he understood...</b>

09:28.750 --> 09:31.670
<b>just how very much his wife had loved him...</b>

09:32.500 --> 09:36.580
<b>and just how much he had done
something that can't be undone.</b>

09:37.670 --> 09:40.790
<b>The man embraced his wife's heart,</b>

09:40.790 --> 09:43.670
<b>and he then proceeded to throw himself into the water.</b>

09:44.790 --> 09:48.080
<b>Then, it is said, the two of them departed this life.</b>

09:49.790 --> 09:51.830
<b>That's a pretty sad story...</b>

09:51.830 --> 09:54.280
<b>That's your very best scary story?</b>

09:54.280 --> 09:55.580
<b>No...</b>

09:55.880 --> 09:57.660
<b>As a matter of fact,</b>

09:58.630 --> 10:00.370
<b>there is a second half to this tale.</b>

10:02.460 --> 10:06.580
<b>It was okay up till the man and his
wife's heart had set off for heaven,</b>

10:08.130 --> 10:11.500
<b>but the body of the wife,
who had lost her heart and been abandoned,</b>

10:12.040 --> 10:14.340
<b>harbored a deep-seated grudge
and began to move around.</b>

10:16.000 --> 10:17.000
<b>The woman...</b>

10:17.330 --> 10:20.670
<b>Who was only wandering around
the city to look for her own heart,</b>

10:21.130 --> 10:24.830
<b>at some point came to be called the "Gray Witch."</b>

10:25.960 --> 10:28.130
<b>"The Gray Witch"...</b>

10:29.210 --> 10:31.420
<b>It's said that night after night she roams about,</b>

10:31.420 --> 10:37.130
<b>attacking pretty young women and
then cutting their hearts out.</b>

10:38.330 --> 10:39.380
<b>Even now...</b>

10:39.880 --> 10:41.170
<b>and always!</b>

10:44.920 --> 10:47.580
<b>G-get a hold of yourself, Elli!</b>

10:47.580 --> 10:49.790
<b>Don't leave me all on my own!
By the looks of how much you enjoyed it,</b>

10:49.790 --> 10:51.710
<b>it seems telling the story was worthwhile.</b>

10:52.080 --> 10:55.790
<b>B-b-but, it's nothing more than a made-up story, right?!</b>

10:55.790 --> 10:57.670
<b>I can't believe a heart could actually talk...</b>

10:58.170 --> 11:00.420
<b>Is that what you think? To tell the truth...</b>

11:01.880 --> 11:05.350
<b>All around Flandore there's been a string of appalling</b>

11:05.350 --> 11:08.060
<b>murders where the victims had their hearts dug out.</b>

11:08.880 --> 11:12.000
<b>Are they simply crimes committed for kicks by
someone who was inspired by the tale?</b>

11:12.710 --> 11:13.400
<b>Or...</b>

11:18.040 --> 11:18.960
<b>What the...?</b>

11:23.000 --> 11:25.070
<b>I wonder if there's some wind blowing in from outside.</b>

11:25.070 --> 11:27.420
<b>Pina, bring me some matches.</b>

11:28.250 --> 11:29.160
<b>Pina!</b>

11:29.160 --> 11:30.880
<b>Pina is nowhere to be seen.</b>

11:30.880 --> 11:31.790
<b>She's vanished!</b>

11:32.330 --> 11:33.420
<b>"Vanished"?</b>

11:33.420 --> 11:34.500
<b>That can't-</b>

11:38.210 --> 11:39.460
<b>Who are you?!</b>

11:39.830 --> 11:41.920
<b>And how did you get inside here?</b>

11:50.630 --> 11:53.290
<b>The Gray Witch...?</b>

12:02.960 --> 12:04.920
<b>Th-the Gray Witch!</b>

12:04.920 --> 12:07.750
<b>She's come to cut out all of our hearts!</b>

12:14.750 --> 12:16.420
<b>Everyone, flee for safety!</b>

12:16.420 --> 12:17.710
<b>I'll buy some time!</b>

12:33.100 --> 12:34.410
<b>Oh, that's right!</b>

12:34.410 --> 12:36.580
<b>Not all weapons are things made of steel.</b>

12:37.080 --> 12:38.940
<b>Isn't that right, Instructor?!</b>

12:39.670 --> 12:40.920
<b>Everyone, use the shawls!</b>

12:44.070 --> 12:45.580
<b>Now! Run for it!</b>

13:08.130 --> 13:10.420
<b>It seems she's not chasing after us.</b>

13:10.880 --> 13:13.210
<b>Do you think everyone's alright?</b>

13:13.540 --> 13:15.850
<b>In any case, let's head back to our dorm.</b>

13:15.850 --> 13:16.960
<b>Good idea.</b>

13:23.170 --> 13:28.540
<b>Could it really be that the woman with
the pointy hat is the Gray Witch?</b>

13:28.540 --> 13:29.830
<b>I don't know.</b>

13:30.210 --> 13:33.250
<b>But, Keira got defeated quite easily.</b>

13:33.920 --> 13:36.460
<b>So what's clear is that it was no ordinary person.</b>

13:36.670 --> 13:38.350
<b>For heaven's sake!</b>

13:38.350 --> 13:40.920
<b>"Witches" are pure fiction.</b>

13:41.290 --> 13:43.380
<b>So there's no way one actually exists, right?</b>

13:45.130 --> 13:46.880
<b>If we talk to Instructor Kufa,</b>

13:47.250 --> 13:49.670
<b>he of all people will know what we're dealing with...</b>

13:55.080 --> 13:57.190
<b>Wh-what's wrong, Melida?!</b>

13:57.190 --> 14:00.080
<b>I-I stepped on something.</b>

14:00.080 --> 14:02.530
<b>Something fell from above... and it's squishy.</b>

14:02.530 --> 14:03.710
<b>What is it?!</b>

14:03.710 --> 14:05.290
<b>I-I don't know.</b>

14:05.290 --> 14:08.540
<b>It's soft, cold, and springy...</b>

14:09.080 --> 14:10.160
<b>Human skin?</b>

14:10.500 --> 14:13.460
<b>Er, is it perhaps actually...</b>

14:14.790 --> 14:15.830
<b>entrails...</b>

14:17.460 --> 14:18.670
<b>or the like?</b>

14:23.460 --> 14:25.380
<b>Let's get out of here ASAP! Hurry!</b>

14:31.390 --> 14:33.330
<b>Oh no! I-I stepped on something!</b>

14:33.330 --> 14:35.090
<b>I-I did, too!</b>

14:35.090 --> 14:36.920
<b>Lita, I can't go on any longer.</b>

14:36.920 --> 14:38.520
<b>Elli, get a grip!</b>

14:39.380 --> 14:40.170
<b>My feet feel slimy!</b>

14:40.170 --> 14:41.080
<b>There's more and more of it!
My feet feel slimy!</b>

14:41.080 --> 14:42.040
<b>There's more and more of it!
Elli, pull it together!</b>

15:04.080 --> 15:05.170
<b>The waterway...</b>

15:05.170 --> 15:07.380
<b>If we can just make it out the end of the waterway...</b>

15:17.920 --> 15:21.150
<b>If my instructor sees me looking like this...</b>

15:23.540 --> 15:25.190
<b>How embarrassing!</b>

15:25.460 --> 15:27.710
<b>Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope!</b>

15:38.500 --> 15:40.290
<b>I can't be bothered with this anymore.
I'm taking it off!</b>

15:41.330 --> 15:43.000
<b>Elli, don't do anything rash!</b>

15:44.290 --> 15:46.710
<b>Ah, right in my cleavage...</b>

15:46.710 --> 15:49.710
<b>Oh my, you're in a real fix now, huh, Sala?</b>

15:49.710 --> 15:51.630
<b>I'll help you out.</b>

15:51.630 --> 15:53.130
<b>I will, too.</b>

15:53.130 --> 15:56.040
<b>The fruit of betrayal... peach hunting.</b>

15:56.720 --> 15:58.460
<b>That can't be any fun, right?</b>

15:58.460 --> 16:01.380
<b>I'll get it all off without leaving a single shred,</b>

16:01.380 --> 16:03.730
<b>so come on and move your
hands out of the way already.</b>

16:04.670 --> 16:06.040
<b>You're all scaring me!</b>

16:19.920 --> 16:22.250
<b>Th-the Gray Witch...</b>

16:22.250 --> 16:24.380
<b>Don't tell me... the older girls...</b>

16:25.750 --> 16:26.920
<b>got wiped out.</b>

16:28.210 --> 16:29.960
<b>I won't let you meddle with any of them!</b>

16:44.920 --> 16:46.040
<b>Sala!</b>

16:48.540 --> 16:49.540
<b>Elli?</b>

16:49.540 --> 16:52.730
<b>Live a good, strong life for me, Lita.</b>

16:52.730 --> 16:54.150
<b>What are you saying, Elli?!</b>

16:55.040 --> 16:56.500
<b>Don't resign yourself to losing.</b>

16:56.500 --> 16:57.880
<b>I'm going to fight alongside you.</b>

16:59.380 --> 17:00.210
<b>Lita...</b>

17:06.710 --> 17:07.920
<b>Phantom-Blade Flash...</b>

17:08.830 --> 17:10.000
<b>Wind Fang!</b>

17:14.960 --> 17:15.880
<b>She's powerful.</b>

17:15.880 --> 17:17.540
<b>She's really powerful.</b>

17:17.540 --> 17:18.380
<b>Run!</b>

17:18.380 --> 17:20.540
<b>Everybody, hurry and get out of here!</b>

17:34.250 --> 17:35.780
<b>If we can make it out of this waterway...</b>

17:43.000 --> 17:43.790
<b>Just a bit farther...</b>

17:44.130 --> 17:45.080
<b>A bit farther...</b>

17:45.670 --> 17:46.420
<b>Almost there.</b>

17:46.880 --> 17:50.170
<b>If we head to the dorm, my instructor will save us.</b>

18:06.040 --> 18:08.250
<b>She won't pursue us out here?</b>

18:08.880 --> 18:10.460
<b>Instructor Kufa...</b>

18:11.380 --> 18:12.440
<b>Instructor?</b>

18:13.170 --> 18:14.830
<b>Hello there, young ladies.</b>

18:16.150 --> 18:18.460
<b>Instructor, we're in some serious trouble!</b>

18:18.460 --> 18:19.920
<b>Something terrible has happened!</b>

18:19.920 --> 18:22.000
<b>I won't say bad things about you anymore,
so please save us!</b>

18:22.000 --> 18:23.240
<b>Please, Instructor Kufa!</b>

18:23.240 --> 18:25.790
<b>When this is over, I'll serve you as much as you like!</b>

18:27.080 --> 18:29.630
<b>I'm actually in a bind myself right now.</b>

18:30.790 --> 18:33.460
<b>Will you help me search for something?</b>

18:34.130 --> 18:35.500
<b>"Search for something"?</b>

18:36.040 --> 18:38.260
<b>Yes. I am...</b>

18:39.920 --> 18:43.640
<b>looking for my ripped-out heart.</b>

18:56.080 --> 18:59.250
<b>Have you reflected on your conduct, young ladies?</b>

19:00.830 --> 19:01.540
<b>Is that...?</b>

19:01.540 --> 19:03.250
<b>It's tomato sauce.</b>

19:05.130 --> 19:09.500
<b>I can't believe all of the instructors found
out about the unofficial closing party.</b>

19:13.670 --> 19:16.670
<b>I heard about something incredibly shocking...</b>

19:16.670 --> 19:21.710
<b>Word is it takes place after the
housemother finishes her patrols.</b>

19:21.710 --> 19:23.040
<b>What does?</b>

19:23.670 --> 19:26.680
<b>They say that students from Friedeswiede and d'Autriche</b>

19:26.680 --> 19:29.770
<b>gather together and hold some
kind of unofficial closing party.</b>

19:30.290 --> 19:33.020
<b>And... why are you telling me this?</b>

19:33.020 --> 19:35.880
<b>Now that you've heard about it,
you can't just ignore it, right?</b>

19:37.330 --> 19:38.630
<b>Well, right she was.</b>

19:38.630 --> 19:42.280
<b>After all, it is the role of a private tutor to see that you young ladies</b>

19:42.280 --> 19:44.530
<b>maintain order in the academy.</b>

19:44.530 --> 19:49.960
<b>Uh, well... So then, who was the
Gray Witch who appeared in the corridor?</b>

19:49.960 --> 19:51.130
<b>I had a hunch...</b>

19:51.630 --> 19:53.290
<b>That was Rosetti.</b>

19:54.000 --> 19:56.460
<b>She disguised herself and even used face paint.</b>

19:57.170 --> 20:01.680
<b>In a sense, perhaps she's the one who
most enjoyed the disturbance tonight.</b>

20:01.680 --> 20:04.790
<b>What were those weird squishy
things that fell into the waterway?</b>

20:08.380 --> 20:10.420
<b>That was pixie-gem.</b>

20:10.880 --> 20:12.270
<b>Do you know what that is?</b>

20:12.750 --> 20:14.420
<b>"Pixie-gem"?</b>

20:14.830 --> 20:16.150
<b>It's a toy, you see.</b>

20:16.150 --> 20:17.830
<b>S-so then...</b>

20:18.500 --> 20:22.130
<b>You're the one who made it rain down
from the ceiling like that, Instructor?</b>

20:22.130 --> 20:25.500
<b>Ah, um... I'm sorry about that.</b>

20:25.500 --> 20:28.960
<b>I never thought it would end up causing such a panic.</b>

20:40.760 --> 20:42.170
<b>Instructor, you're dirty-minded!</b>

20:42.170 --> 20:44.760
<b>Doing such a thing to innocent female students...
How distasteful!</b>

20:44.760 --> 20:47.020
<b>I can't believe you saw me like that...</b>

20:47.020 --> 20:49.000
<b>Perv, lecher, brute!</b>

20:49.000 --> 20:50.540
<b>I'm going to tell on you to Instructor Rose!</b>

20:50.540 --> 20:53.750
<b>Ahem! Which one of us do
you suppose would get scolded?</b>

20:54.830 --> 20:57.580
<b>You are all now free to return to your rooms.</b>

21:12.540 --> 21:13.500
<b>M-my legs...</b>

21:14.080 --> 21:15.210
<b>I can't stand up.</b>

21:19.080 --> 21:22.210
<b>Excess excitement and fear, as well as tension...</b>

21:22.210 --> 21:25.420
<b>Your legs are numb after sitting on
your heels for a long time, huh?</b>

21:26.710 --> 21:28.220
<b>What a predicament.</b>

21:28.220 --> 21:30.960
<b>Jeez, don't you get the picture?</b>

21:30.960 --> 21:33.380
<b>You're going to take responsibility for this, aren't you?</b>

21:33.380 --> 21:34.380
<b>Instructor...</b>

21:55.380 --> 21:57.000
<b>Instructor...</b>

22:00.960 --> 22:02.920
<b>Looks like I'll be staying up all night.</b>
