Is that all, Guiche?
My specialty is Earth magic.
Saito-san!
They've been doing nothing but "play knight" from dawn to dusk, calling it training.
They look like they're enjoying themselves, so what's wrong with it?
But looks like we have another person with an objection in mind.
What?
I can understand your feelings with Saito busy with the Order every day.
I-I don't have any problem with this!
Sure, I admit that we haven't had much time to talk despite him coming back from the war.
But so what?!
Really?
Saito-san!
Tifa?
Saito-san!
Oh wow.
You're suffocating me, Tifa...
I-I'm so sorry.
It's okay.
More importantly, you decided to come to the academy?
Yes!
Since you told me to muster the courage.
Although, it's a secret that I'm a half-elf.
Don't worry. I promised that I'd protect you, didn't I?
What's the big smile on his face about?
That dog...
I'm off.
Just you wait, Saito!
Where do you think you're going without saying a word to your master?!
Where else other than the Order's training?
Same as yesterday and the day before.
Let me know every day.
Yes, yes.
Master, I'm off to training.
Wait!
We're not done talking!
What are you so mad about so early in the morning?
I'm not mad!
Then what?
Well, I want...
Want what?
...Want to spend more time together like before.
Why don't you get it, you dense dog?
What?
I... I-I-I-I-I want you to come home earlier!
Is there something you need me for?
Basically.
Yes, Ma'am.
I'll come back early today.
See ya.
Would you like more tea?
No, I'm all right.
Please, don't hesitate.
No, I'm really fine.
What's your afternoon schedule looking like?
Um...
No, please schedule some time with me.
No, me.
Tifa became popular in no time.
The hottest topic on campus right now is whether her great breasts are real or not.
What do you think, Saito?
How am I supposed to know?
The mystery must be solved.
If it's come down to this, I shall find out with my own hands!
Montmo will kill you, you know?
You two!
Were you listening to anything I said?
Of course I was, Reinard.
What was it about?
I was saying we should recruit more people into the Order of Undine Knights.
Sure, but how do we do that?
I heard there's another chevalier on this campus other than Saito.
You mean-
This hat will suit your beauty the most!
Please!
No, this hat will look best to you.
What are you talking about? It's got to be this!
Of course not!
Crap, if they take her hat off, they'll find out that Tifa's a half-elf.
I-I'm fine. Please excuse me!
I'm sorry!
Gosh, what a rude girl.
Unbelievable!
Insolent wench!
Oh my, it's so cute.
If he sees me like this, I bet he'll...
It's a master's duty to give presents once in a while.
Tonight, I will welcome Saito back kindly.
Louise, you're so cute!
Forgive me for leaving you unattended!
You notice that now? But one apology isn't enough!
I'm sorry for getting caught up with playing knight.
I'm sorry for staring at Tiffania's breasts.
T-T-Th-Then, demonstrate your thoughts with action!
Louise, I always wanted to hold you tight like this!
I won't leave you alone, ever.
Yo, Tabitha.
What?
Uh... That is...
If I'm right, you're a chevalier, right?
Yes.
Then, would you join the Order of Undine Knights?
I am a Galia citizen.
But-
I'm not interested in playing knight.
Maybe it was too sudden.
You're being so rude!
Wh... What are you talking about?
Tifa?
Who do you think she is?
Beatrice Evonne von Guldenhorf-sama.
Guldenhorf-sama!
Princess Beatrice from the Grand Duchy of Guldenhorf.
Princess?
You get to be in the same class as the Princess, and yet you don't even come to introduce yourself to her.
Utter insolence!
Give her your apology.
Y-Yes. I'm sorry, Your Highness.
You call that an apology?
Take that dirty hat off first.
You're before a noble.
It goes without saying, right?
There has to be a limit to how rude you are.
But this hat is...
When I tell you to take it off, you take it off!
Hey!
What are you guys doing to Tiffania?!
Saito-san?!
What is this all of a sudden?
Do you know who she is?
Huh? Whoever she may be, bullying shouldn't be done.
Who are you?
I'm-
Oh, if it isn't Princess Guldenhorf.
Why hello, Mr. Gramont.
Long time no see.
This guy here is Saito.
A barbarian that was just appointed a chevalier.
To talk with a man like this in the hallway; you're ruining your eminence.
But he came and-
A mature lady shouldn't show any weakness at any time.
You have a point.
It's fine. Let's go.
But-
I said it's fine, so it's fine!
Okay...
You!
I'll let you go today.
But the next time you are to take that dirty hat off in front of me.
Hey, Guiche.
Aren't you supposed to be from a really honorable family?
Why are you deferring so much to an underclassman?
She's a bad person to be on the bad side of.
Although of a small independent nation, she is a princess of a country.
So what?
That's not all!
She's really rich and has her personal guards here with her.
They're called the Luft Panzer Ritter.
They're known as the strongest dragon knights in Halcheginia.
I wouldn't want to get in trouble with them.
They deployed an entire Knight detachment for their daughter at school?
The wealthy like to put on an ostentation.
That's totally you.
I just want to look cool!
I don't care about their dragon knights.
If they ever come to you for anything, let me know.
Saito-san...
He's here!
Remember, Louise. Give him the best smile!
I'm back.
Welcome back, Saito! Hurry, come and sit!
I prepared dinner!
Sorry, I already ate with Guiche.
I had stuff I had to discuss with him.
Oh, and I wanted to ask you about this, too, Louise.
What?
It looks like Tiffania's being bullied.
Is there anything we can do?
Tiffania, you said?
You're related to a duke, right?
If you would talk to-
Aren't you very kind?
Maybe you should just leave her alone.
What? A word of warning won't-
Silence!
Dog!
I'm saying it's her own business!
She chose to come here of her own will, so she should take care of herself!
Is this what was on your mind all these days?
Order training? Yeah, right!
The Order's got nothing to do with this!
Shut up!
I'm going to bed now, so don't talk to me.
You're the one who said to come back early.
Fine, suit yourself!
What's with him? I've been waiting for hours, and he gets carried away when I'm being nice to him...
All he cares about is that half-elf.
Stupid dog.
I don't care about you anymore.
What a waste.
Miss Valliere, you'll be late for your classes.
I couldn't get a wink of sleep, so I'm not feeling well.
I'll skip school today.
Stupid Saito...
I can't cause any more trouble for Saito-san and all.
I have to take care of myself.
Miss Westwood.
Miss Westwood?
Is she absent?
In that case-
M-Miss Westwood!
What is that outfit?
What strange clothes?
She looks like a clown.
Everyone!
This robe is my mother's memento!
What? Only the nomads wear that robe!
Are you by any chance an e-e-
Yes!
An elf!
I can't forgive her.
She's an elf, and she became more popular than me?
Please calm down! I want to be friends with you all!
It's a lie! There's no way an elf won't do anything!
Yes. Elves have stood as enemies of humans in this Halcheginia for many years.
But my parents fell in love with each other and gave me both elf and human blood.
So...
Oh, so you're a half-elf?
Then let me ask. What god do you worship?
The desert's devil? Or the primogenitor, Burimill?
I...
You wish to be friends with us, so you believe in the same god as we do, right?
If that is necessary...
Then prove that!
My Knights!
Guldenhorf Grand Duchy, Luft Panzer Ritter.
Arrest that woman!
What's going on?
That's...
Tifa!
Isn't it a little noisy?
Hey now...
Stupid Saito... Stupid Saito... Stupid Saito...
She's hopeless.
What is this about?
An inquisition.
I happen to be a bishop.
A bishop?
Seriously?
Prove your faith to me, a deputy of God.
What do you want me to do?
Get in that.
Don't worry. It's just the right temperature for anyone who believes in the primogenitor, Burimill.
Is she serious about this?
Isn't that dangerous?
Why isn't anyone stopping this?
Stop it, Saito!
Why?
Are you afraid of the dragon knights?
No, this is an inquiry.
If you side with her, they'll treat you as a heretic and send you to prison.
You can't do it?
In that case, go back to where you came from.
Then I'll treat it as though none of this happened.
No, I won't.
I have always wanted to see the outside world.
Saito-san and everyone else made that dream come true.
So I won't go back!
If I tell you to go home, then you'll go home!
I pity you...
No, I guess that's wrong.
You're still a child.
Dunk her in the pot! Now!
Wait!
You dare interrupt the inquiry?
I don't care what happens to me.
So leave Tifa-
Stop. This isn't only about you.
This will cause an inquiry to befall your beloved, as well.
Beloved?
Louise...
Louise!
Saito!
Saito...
More...
Saito-san...
Wh-What is this about?
Please, Your Highness.
I'm the one who brought Tifa here.
So what?
I take full responsibility.
Please forgive Tifa.
No.
Even with all this begging?
Can't be done!
Then...
I guess I don't have a choice!
Looks like you're a heretic, too.
What is this about, Mr. Gramont?
It's a shame on knighthood to forsake ladies and one's friends.
Knights are to decide things with wands.
I can't stop myself from acting cool when such audiences are about!
That idiot!
Follow the Captain!
All Undine! Take your wands!
Tifa, stay back!
Go, Luft Panzer Ritter!
Louise.
Saito...
Shut up!
Are you all right?
Did something happen?
What is this about?
Why...
Why did you wake me up?!
Let's go!
Louise?
Louise, you...
You're being so noisy.
You guys are being noisy.
I was having such a good dream...
I was so close, too...
What a waste!
Stop it, Louise!
Saito-san!
Y-You interrupted the inquiry!
You had better beware of the consequences!
Inquiry?
Do you even have the right to?
I-If it's the bishop's license, I have it at home.
It's a big lie.
No, it isn't!
To perform an inquiry, you need the Romalia Sectarian Head's written exequatur.
A bishop should know that.
What does that mean?
She didn't have the right? She uttered God's name in vain?
I can't believe her.
I-I've got nothing to do with this.
Same here.
Beatrice-san.
W-What?
Don't come any closer!
Let's become friends.
I didn't know elves were so kind.
I think I want to be her friend, too.
Back to sleep.
Sorry for the cruel treatment.
I totally fell in a state of panic. I'm sorry.
Think nothing of it. I think I can make lots of good friends here.
That would be great.
Now, I'd like to say everything's solved,
but this I must ask!
Y-Yes?
Are these genuine?
Won't Louise come?
Saito-san.
Tifa?
Saito-san.
Wha- Tifa!
Your familiar's interesting as always.
What? You're here to be cynical?
Absolutely not. It is difficult to get down on one's knees in that situation.
If you stop an inquiry, your beloved will be questioned, as well.
He bowed his head after hearing that.
I wonder who he thought about.
Do these look that fake?
Everyone's talking about them, and even the Principal asked a moment ago.
There has to be a reason why everyone wonders, but I can't tell which myself.
Tifa... What are you suggesting?
Would you...
...touch and check?
I-I can't!
You're the only person I can ask for something like this!
So... please.
I-If you ask so much...
How is it, Saito-san?
Do you have any idea why it doesn't look real?
N-Not yet. I think I need to inspect them a little more.
I'm the one to see him first!
He's my familiar, so I should be first!
Saito!
Yes?
Hey, do you have a whip on you?
Yes. Luckily, I happen to have one right here.
Wait, Louise! Don't rush!
There's a reason for this!
Sigh...
It's impossible.
But...
I'm furious right now! And you want to shame yourself more?!
Zero no Tsukaima. Princess no Rondo.
The Captivating Girl's Bath!
If there's a hole, you want to hide in it, you say?
I won't forgive you if you look away.
