Welcome to the Walpurgis Royal Academy of Machinart.
Before we celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of the clock tower's construction,
let's hear a few words...
from Headmaster Edward Rutherford.
My burning passion absorbs all my pain
J
koikogareru omoi wa itami suiage
And engulfs me in flames
watashi wo ooitsukusu no
I wonder how many tears
doredake no namida wo
I've shed in secret
kakushite kita no darou
Each and every drop
ochite yuku shizuku ni
Reflects the shining moon
utsuru gyokuto
Flowers are meant to one day scatter
hanabira mo itsuka wa
And vanish into thin air
chiriyuki sora ni mau
Tell me why everything
sugiteyuku mujou no
Has to be so fleeting
imi oshiete
The moonlit party comes to a sad end
sangoya no utage owari
Unbeknownst to one and all
hitoshirezu samishikute
It makes me want to reveal
akashite wa ikenai himitsu
Secrets that must not be told
uchiaketaku naru no
You're almost within my grasp
furerareru hodo chikai
So I extend my hand for you to clasp
kimi e to kono te wo nobashita
Hoping to break free of this cruel fate
kanashiki sadame yo
As long as I can keep you safe
kimi wo mamoru tame nara
I don't care if I get broken in half
kowarete mo ii
If our love isn't meant to last
hakanai omoi nara
Then please show me a dream
semete yume wo misete yo
A dream where we come together
aishiau yume misete
On this night of the full moon
amamitsutsuki ni
A jumper?
Yeah, she took a dive off the roof earlier.
Wh-What was she like?
She had light brown hair, and she was wearing a hat.
R-Raishin?
Sorry about that.
Oh, and she looked like Char.
That's probably Henri.
Henriette Belew.
Belew?
She's Tyrant Rex's little sister.
A transfer student.
No wonder.
She's tried to commit suicide six times in the past.
She survived due to the noose's rope snapping,
timely administration of antidotes, and stuff like that.
Wow. I can't tell if she has good luck or bad.
Tyrant Rex has been missing since yesterday.
She didn't return to the dorm.
Say what?
What's with the outfit?
I hope you're not going to say you want to be discharged.
Sorry to be so predictable.
Do you understand what you're asking for?
If I allow you to leave medical care...
...that'd mean reinstatement in the Evening Party.
By the way, that explosion just now.
The one that destroyed the clock tower.
I hear it was Tyrant Rex's doing.
I see that got your attention.
Are you that dragon girl's boyfriend?
And what if I said I was?
Would you let me leave?
I'm not, of course.
Do whatever you want, you moron.
Why are you so quick to rush to her aid?
Yaya.
Charlotte will be our enemy one day.
Please don't forget your goal.
Or your situation, for that matter.
You're going to look for Tyrant Rex, right?
That's the plan.
I'll come, too.
I'm sure they'll be able to help a lot.
Thanks a bunch.
Welcome back, Ravenna.
I've got good news for you.
Second Last apparently wants to go look for Charlotte Belew.
Tyrant Rex is surprisingly popular, I see.
Go pay him a visit.
I'd find it rather unpleasant if they had the chance to snoop around.
I'm sure it'd cause problems for you as well.
Fewer than forty hours remain until the promised time.
Raishin, this is the girls' dorm.
I'd like to begin by talking to Char's sister.
She was acting odd, wasn't she?
She probably knows something.
They said Henri disappeared again.
This is a matter of life and death.
We should hurry.
Raishin, look.
Pan—?!
Where did you even get those?
Henri's room.
And what are you gonna use them for?
Raishin!
If you want to sniff panties that badly,
sniff mine!
Why the hell would I?!
You're the only one perverted enough to think that way.
I've found Henri.
Already?
Nooo!
Dogs!
Go away!
Somebody help!
Nooo! Do—
No! A man!
Hey, Henriette Belew.
Where's Char?
Is it true she didn't come back last night?
Does it have anything to do with the destruction of the clock tower?
Why do you have such a death wish?
Speak up.
You know something, don't you?
Don't ask so many questions at once.
Henriette, please tell us the truth.
You've been faking suicide attempts to attract Raishin's attention, haven't you?
I'm sorry, Frey,
but could you try asking her for me?
Sure.
Henri,
you've been faking suicide attempts to attract Raishin's—
Oh no! This man's a savage!
Tell me where Char is already.
If you don't, I'll set these dogs loose on you.
Eek!
You want to get off on bestiality?!
You're a pervert of the worst kind!
Forgive me, Mother!
I'm going to get pounded hard by beasts and a beast-like man!
Raishin, you had such a kinky fetish?!
You refuse to even kiss me,
but you're willing to gangbang that woman alongside animals?!
If I can't have you, I'd rather kill you and then myself!
Crap!
Frey, get her!
Raishin...
You're the worst kind of pervert.
Don't you start getting weird ideas, too!
Got that?
I'm not a pervert, all right?
I believed in you.
Don't lie to me.
You totally doubted me back there!
Yep.
It's almost time for the Evening Party.
You should head back.
What about you?
I'm gonna try and look for Char.
I'll be back in time.
But...
It'll be all right.
Sorry to drag you into this.
Let's head to the girls' dorm one more time.
You want to steal some of Charlotte's panties?
What kind of pervert do you take me for?
I'm just going to check out Henri's—
Stop!
Skipping out on classes for an evening stroll, eh,
Ms Night Life?
There are a lot of questions I'd like to ask you.
And I've got nothing to say to you.
Consider this a warning:
don't mess with Henri.
I refuse.
But I'd be willing to consider it if you come back quietly.
You fool!
You foolish fool!
Still can't read between the lines, huh?
I'm telling you not to get involved.
If you refuse to listen,
I'll kill you.
Didn't you say you'd protect me the other day?
Shut up! I'll kill you! I mean it!
So don't get involved any further!
You're the fool, Char.
After seeing that look on your face, how could I not get involved?
If you're that worried,
go see how Raishin's doing.
Yo— fo—
I-I'm not the least bit worried about that fool's condition!
He's all brawn and no brain, so I'm sure he'll be fine.
Don't be so stubborn.
The more obstinate you become,
the more you show your true feelings.
True feelings?
You see Raishin as a man, don't you?
O-Of course not!
Don't be stupid!
If you don't shut up, you're getting canned herring for lunch instead of chicken!
The really stinky kind!
Right.
Why do you keep trying to deny your feelings?
Deny?
I mean, if I actually have fallen for him,
how easy a woman must I be?
Humans sure do have it rough.
But that's—
Who is it?
Henri?
You're all right!
How have you been?
Where have you been?
How's Mother?
Why are you here at this academy?
Settle down, Char.
You'd bewilder most people that way, let alone Henri.
It's been a while, Henri.
Or at least, it has been for you.
Long time no see, Sigmund.
I'm glad to see you're okay.
Char's been worried about you all this time.
S-Sis?
What's the big deal?
It's not weird if I cry, is it?
What happened, Henri?
Tell me.
I have a role to play.
A role?
What is it?
Why did you come here?
To bring you unhappiness!
Raishin, we should...
Are you tired?
No. I'm tougher than you are.
I guess we should attend the Evening Party.
Sorry, but I'll be relying on you once again.
Of course. You can count on me.
What's wrong, Raishin?
Someone was just...
Never mind. Let's go.
Silent Roar left, so I guess that's all for tonight.
Doesn't seem like number 87 will be showing up either.
Looks like Frey left early.
She must be trying to avoid fighting us.
Anyway, we were supposed to fight number 87 tonight.
What are they like?
Raishin, you're thinking about Charlotte.
H-How can you tell?
Stop it!
Sis!
Don't be stupid!
Don't be stupid, please!
You said you'd bring me unhappiness.
I saw my little sister again and found out my mother was alive.
How could that possibly make me unhappy?
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry!
You don't have to worry about a thing.
Tomorrow, I'll put an end to everything.
I'm so sorry!
Don't apologise.
Once this is all over, let's live together once more.
Okay?
Okay!
Come in.
I figured it was about time for you to come see me.
Yaya, make us some tea.
O-Okay.
What do you want to know?
You're a professor at this academy,
but you're also a member of Nectar.
That's why I wasn't punished for leaving without permission,
and why Frey and Loki's automatons haven't been confiscated, right?
I suppose I don't need to hide it from you anymore.
That said, it's not something everyone should know about.
If you tell another living soul—
I owe you one,
so I'll take this to my grave.
How admirable.
Quite unlike you.
Who's Char being manipulated by?
Oh?
Did it occur to you that Charlotte could have destroyed the clock tower of her own free will?
She wouldn't use Sigmund as a tool for murder.
But the fact remains that she destroyed the tower.
How many died?
Zero.
Some did get injured, though.
See?
Who was her target?
You seem to be on the ball, for once.
It's still under investigation, but her target was most likely...
the headmaster,
Edward Rutherford.
Does Char have anything against him?
No.
Like you said, Charlotte's probably being manipulated.
By whom?
Who do you think?
The only person who'd bear a grudge against the headmaster,
as far as I know, would be Felix.
Yeah, the Kingsfort family.
A plausible theory.
That's absurd!
Why wouldn't they target me instead?
I'm sure killing you would make them feel good about themselves,
but they'd gain nothing else from it.
What do you think the Kingsforts would consider the greatest reward?
Reinstatement, huh?
Correct.
To reclaim their lost honour,
and for Lord Walter to return to politics.
In order to do that, they must first make it so the cause for their downfall never happened.
That's ridiculous.
Assassinating the headmaster would be akin to an admission of guilt.
The key point here is to turn "black" into "grey".
The Kingsfort family is famous for their philanthropy.
On the other hand, the Belews have been scorned ever since the scandal a few years ago.
Scorned?
You don't know?
Once, when the crown prince was out hunting,
one of the Belews' prized dog automatons went berserk.
It nearly chewed Prince Edmund to death.
The royal family sees the Belews as their enemies.
Public opinion always swings towards the popular.
And if Char were to carry out an assassination...
The Kingsforts would be able to return to their former status.
Stay out of this matter.
It's too late for that!
Especially if the Kingsforts are involved.
Don't you get it?
I'm saying there's no proof.
Everything I said was pure speculation.
If you let your emotions run wild and cause an incident,
that would only make things worse for the Belew sisters.
So we just need proof, right?
Right.
So long as we have proof, there won't be any problems.
You're still awake, Raishin?
Get some rest already.
Sure.
Once you get off my bed, that is.
Yaya.
I've been thinking about what you asked me.
About why I'm so quick to rush to Char's aid,
or why I keep sticking my nose into things in spite of Shouko's warnings.
I don't know myself.
It's not like I'm in love with Char.
Sigmund's certainly a formidable enemy,
so it might be better for us if they went away.
But if they're in trouble, I want to help them.
Raishin...
Not just Char. Frey, too.
And you, of course.
Loki would hate it,
but I'd help him, too.
Oh, and Henri as well.
I'll do whatever you want me to.
Sorry to always cause so much trouble for you.
Don't be.
I'm happy just to be with you.
I'll return the favour someday, okay?
Raishin!
Are you saying you'll tie the knot with me?
Why would I be?!
But you meant you'd do whatever I wanted, right?!
I never went that far!
I only said I'd return the favour!
Then make me your wife!
What do you mean, "then"?!
You're not making any compromises at all!
You can do me a favour right now!
In fact, drop the "favour", and just do me!
I didn't get a wink of sleep again.
Geez, Raishin.
You were even rougher than usual last night.
Stop saying things that could cause misunderstandings!
The only thing I was rough about was keeping you off me!
Hey, did you hear?
Apparently Tyrant Rex was the one who destroyed the clock tower.
She challenged the academy's authority.
She's getting the noose for sure.
It just means Tyrant Rex was a criminal all along, huh?
Sure brings that other incident into suspicion.
I find it hard to believe Felix would kill people.
So if Tyrant Rex is a criminal,
Second Last reeks of it, too.
Despite showing up so late, he managed to slip into the Evening Party.
Things went too well for him.
Don't let it bother you.
We don't have any lectures today.
We'll first look for Henri, and then Char...
Raishin?
What's wrong?
It's Henri.
Is she trying to pull something again?
Raishin!
The headmaster?
What's he doing there?
Oh, he's inspecting the clock tower!
Like you said, Charlotte's probably being manipulated.
Her target was most likely the headmaster, Edward Rutherford.
This is bad!
Raishin!
Get in touch with Shouko!
No! Take me with you!
Hurry up! I'm counting on you.
So she is planning to fire?
Sis, don't do it!
Sis!
No! Henri'll get killed, too!
