It's over.
We can release our magic

[CELIA]
Oh, right!
[indistinct chatter]
Haruto is just fine.
[CELIA]
Good, what a relief.
Toward a fateful tomorrow.
[RIO]
They got away.
-[scoffs]
-[FLORA] Um, excuse me!
Sir Rio.
After all of this,
it is you, isn't it?
I've spent years
wanting to apologize!
It's true.
I've wanted to thank you, too.
[RIO]
For what, exactly?
For saving me!
For what happened
at the academy.
You rescued me from danger,
but I wasn't able
to thank you for your service.
To make matters worse.
You were branded the culprit.
A baseless claim that
forced you to leave.
While I'm honored,
I cannot think of any reason
I should receive thanks
from you, Princess.
Nor why you should
harbor any guilt.
No, but surely,
it's been a burden.
I'm not burdened in the least.
However,
if it is what you wish,
there's a way
you could greatly assist me
in lieu of apologies
and thanks.
From now on,
please put the name Rio
out of your mind.
That alone is more than enough.
Uh, certainly, I shall,
and I'm so sorry!
[weeping]
I didn't mean to trouble you
with my intrusiveness!
[RIO]
I'm sorry, too,
but the boy you knew
as Rio is gone.
[RIO] Let's get you back
to the mansion.
[FLORA]
For that, I thank you.
♪
[LISELOTTE]
Because of your bravery.
Loss of life
and property damage
were kept to a minimum.
Oh! Please,
your forces deserve far more
of the credit than we do!
And the situation
has yet to be resolved.
We should be thinking
about what comes after this.
[LISELOTTE]
I suppose you're right.
Regardless, thank you.
[CELIA] I've a basic
understanding of healing magic.
If you need help,
I'd be happy to assist.
That would be great!

[GUSTAV] So, what
is the situation out there?
Please don't speak,
Duke Huguenot.
Save your strength.

Lady Liselotte!
My goodness, what happened?
Rohanna, my dear.
Could you explain
the situation to them for me?
Well, thenI will take
her place and heal you.
[ROHANNA]
And who are you?
♪
[CELIA]
Just someone here to help.
Heal.
♪
The monsters broke in
and attacked us up here.
Thanks
to Sir Hiroaki's actions,
we managed to make it through.
But Duke Huguenot
suffered the most
severe wounds.
[LISELOTTE]
The Hero doesn't look so good.
Will he be all right?
[ROHANNA]
I'm told he is unconscious,
but will recover.
That's a relief.
Indeed, and the Princess?
When all the monsters
attacked us in the gardens.
A cloaked stranger
was seen exiting
from the mansion
with Princess Flora
as his captive.
Unfortunately, he fled
the grounds with her.
What?
What did you say?
[LISELOTTE] But the search
for her is in capable hands.
Sir Haruto has volunteered
to track them down on his own.
No.
But how?
Wait, so when I attempted
to help Princess Flora escape,
that man must have been a
Oh, my lady.
What have I done?
[GUSTAV]
Rohanna.
You made the best decision
you could in the moment,
so stop beating yourself up
and put your faith in Haru

Your Grace,
please take it easy.
This is hardly the time
to push yourself.
Actually, I think
I can feel the pain
rapidly receding
due to this young lady's
healing prowess.
Thank Rohanna, not me.
She had already completed
the brunt of the treatment.
After a little rest,
I believe you will be
fully recovered.
Haruto has returned.
[CELIA]
What?
♪
You made it!
I'm sorry for worrying you
both, but we're back.
[chuckles]
Welcome back.
Sir Haruto!
Princess Flora!
I've brought her back,
just as I had promised you.
Unfortunately,
I allowed the kidnapper
to escape without justice.
Just bringing Princess Flora
back is more than enough.
How can I ever repay you
for all you've done for us?
To start, may I entrust
the Princess to you
and your kindly guards?
Of course, yes!
[LISELOTTE]
With that settled,
would you please join me
in the mansion?
There's much to discuss.
[RIO]
As you wish, M'lady.
-Princess Flora, this--
-[FLORA] I, uh
-Huh? -I think my legs
are frozen from fear.
I'm sorry to burden you.
[RIO]
No burden at all.
I may be presumptuous,
but shall I accompany
the Princess inside?
[LISELOTTE] If you would,
I'd appreciate it.
♪
Glad you're back.
We need you.
[both chuckle]
[LISELOTTE] We still don't have
much information
on the Princess' kidnapper.
In your brief interactions
with him,
were there any identifying
features that stood out?
I can do much better
than describe his features.
I know the man.
I first met him
a long time ago.
-Are you serious?
-[RIO] Yes.
When he was fleeing
from the mansion.
I realized that I had
heard his voice before.
Hang on,
if you know him that well,
then do you know his name?
-It's Lucius.
-Hm.
Then we have a lead, I suppose.
[LISELOTTE] But how do
you know a man like him?
[RIO]
Our lives have been entangled
for more than a decade.
[CELIA]
Entangled?
Forgive me, Sir Haruto.
I didn't mean to ask
something so personal.
It's fine.
[coughs]
[REISS] It was
good medicine, wasn't it?
Your injuries
are much too severe
for traditional healing.
We've but one choice.
We both know
I cannot have you dying
before I get everything
I need from you.
Curses!
My arm.
If it hadn't been taken
from me, I'd have won!
[REISS] Free yourself
of your delusions.
At your current strength.
It would be impossible
for you to win against him.
[gasps]
It seems we both
greatly underestimated
his strength, did we not?
This time,
we should accept our defeat
as the utter lashing
that it was.
Uh
[REISS] Going forward,
we shall put any plans
to remove him
from the picture aside.
Noninterference
would serve us best.
Come on!
Not now!
[REISS] If I want opinions
from losers, I'll ask.
Until then, your objections
are of no relevance.
[ROHANNA]
Princess Flora, you're alive!
♪
Oh, Rohanna.
[GUSTAV]
Oh, Princess.
I'm glad you're unharmed.
[LISELOTTE] Feel free to use
this chair, if you please.
♪
[RIO] Here we are,
let's set you down.
Yes, thank you for carrying me.
♪
Haruto.
Thank you, sir.
[RIO]
My pleasure.
Now then, we'll be on our way.
Let's help those outside.
-Yes.
-Right.
Before you go, the attendants
I had deployed to other areas
have begun to return.
They can assist those
that need help outside.
Please get some rest!
I'll have some rooms
prepared right away!
That's perfect.
And you can let us
handle things
while you do the same.
We'll ask Princess Flora
for more details.
[LISELOTTE]
That would be wonderful.
Meanwhile, please allow me
to arrange a time
and place for us
to all meet later.
We'll have plenty
of information to exchange.
And you too, Sir Haruto.
Would you be willing to come
and relay your side
of what happened?
Yes, ma'am, of course.
Tonight, after
we share our information.
please allow me to express
my gratitude
for saving the Princess.
The sentiment is more than
enough, My Lord.
Now, we must be on our way.

Spirit chronicles 2
Here you go!
[slurps]
[AISHIA]
It's delicious!
It tastes curiously like
Haruto's!
I've told you.
That's because
I'm the one who taught Rio!
[CELIA]
Right, Rio?
Rio, you hear me?
I did.
It's just that
Princess Flora.
She found out who I really am.
What?
She did?
How?
[CELIA] That explains why
she looked like that earlier.
If she knows,
will she reveal it?
I asked her to put
the name Rio out of her mind.
She seemed to understand,
but it's hard to say.
In that case, I don't think
you have to worry about
her mentioning it to anyone.
She's the sort
who will honor your request.
I'm certain she won't tell.
Well, all right.
If you say so, Professor.
She may be willing
to keep my secret,
but I'm not the only one
at risk of being discovered.
We don't want anyone
to find out your identity.
[CELIA]
That's true.
For now, let's finish
our talks with Miss Liselotte,
then we'll head back
to the Village of Spirits.
Good idea.
I'd like that.
[RIO]
As I mentioned yesterday.
Miss Satsuki Sumeragi.
One of Miharu's friends,
was one of the people
summoned from her world
to Galarc as a hero.
I'd like to let Miharu know.
Sounds good to me.
[RIO] Are you all right
with that, Aishia?
Yes, but, are you?
What are your feelings?
Are you sure you want
to leave like this?
I am
I feel good.
Then, it's fine.
Huh?
Something wrong, Professor?
[CELIA]
Um, well
[RIO]
Yes?
This Lucius, I can't help
but want to know what happened
between you and him
all those years ago.
You said your lives
have long been entangled.
But, don't feel
pressured to talk!
Please!
I'm just curious, is all.
I'm avenging my mom.
[RIO]
He's the man who killed her
right in front of me
as a child.
And I'm not sure,
but he may be the person
who killed my dad, too.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
It seems I've dredged up
the worst memory
of your life, haven't I?
No, ma'am. I intended
to tell you if you asked.
I've always wanted
to share the truth with you.
Only, it's really
not a pleasant story.
I can never forgive him
for what he did.
I loathe him beyond belief.
But after years of hunting,
I finally got
what I was looking for.
I found him
and confronted him head-on.
I'm fine.
Good.
[RIO]
If possible, I'd be grateful
if this information
could remain
between the three of us.
As it stands,
very few people know of it.
I'm honored, then.
Thanks for telling me.
And yes, I've told you
this before,
and I meant it,
you can always confide in me.
No matter what happens, Rio.
I hope you know
I'm on your side.
Yeah.
[GUSTAV] In the hours
since you heroically rescued
the Princess from her captor,
we've come to learn
more about the man.
Anything
you're willing to share?
His current residency
and whereabouts are unknown,
he was born in Beltrum
to a low-ranked noble house.
Were you aware of that, sir?
I was not, no, sir.
His name is Lucius Orgueil.
He was once a candidate
to become the King's Sword.
In point of fact,
he and the current
title-holder, Alfred Emerle,
once fought for it.
♪
But when the Orgueil family's
house fell from nobility,
he no longer qualified to be
appointed as the King's Sword.
If that's true,
perhaps that was his motive
for the kidnapping plot,
a deep seeded hatred
of the Beltrum Kingdom.
Yeesh, that's no reason
to kidnap a princess.
The dude's nothing
but a petty drop-out.
[LISELOTTE] Truth be told,
we haven't determined
his actual motives yet.
But you know,
I'm curious about
his accomplice, Reiss.
Reiss, is it?
I believe I have heard
that name in passing.
It belonged
to a Proxia Empire diplomat
rumored to have secret
connections with House Arbor.
Though, it's possible
that they simply
share the same name.
Well, according
to Princess Flora,
this Reiss character
kept his face hidden
under a hood.
Sir Haruto,
did you make out anything?
No, not clearly.
Even if I were to see
the diplomat's face,
I'm not sure I could verify
whether they were the same.
[LISELOTTE] Then for now,
our surest path forward
is going after the man
we confirmed is Lucius.
He's our main lead.
Yes, indeed.
I will look into whether
he's had any contact
with our forces.
To complete my investigation,
I must venture back
to Rodania at once.
You have my thanks.
I will go and investigate
matters on my end.
[GUSTAV]
Yes.
And you, sir?
You have done more than
your fair share,
may I ask what your next order
of business is?
Well, an urgent matter
has arisen for me,
so I'm planning to leave
Amande for a short while.
We will be sad to see you go.
In that case, then
allow me to speak
to my maidens.
We want to give you
some supplies
as thanks for your sacrifices.
After what your town
just went through,
you'll need supplies.
You've got a long road
to recovery ahead of you.
There's no need
to overextend yourself for me.
Nonsense, you won't
leave empty handed.
If it weren't for all
of your heroic efforts,
we might not be sitting here.
Is there anything
you may want?
To tell you the truth,
I've been struggling
to find a gift
worthy enough to convey our
profound sense of gratitude.
[RIO]
Well, there is something
I'd like to request
of Lady Liselotte.
-Of course.
-[RIO] If it's possible
may I attend your soiree?
In Galarc, where you said
you plan to introduce
the new Heroes?
You mean the party
where all of the heroes
are introduced?
Then I assume you know
it's being held at our
royal palace in the evening.
And your request
is simply to attend?
Yes, ma'am.
My companions and I
we wish to meet
Satsuki Sumeragi.
[birds chirping]
A few days later.
[yawns]
[MASATO]
Morning.
-Good morning!
-Good morning!
It's not fair when you
oversleep like that, Masato!
You know
we're all waiting on you!
Today's the day Miharu
is making omurice
for everybody!
Omurice?
Wait, for real?
And you can have some
once you've washed up.

On it!

Hey, Rio!

Have you all been well, too?
-Yes!

Celia, Haruto, guess what?
Aki and I can speak
Strahlian now!
Right?
We're pretty good!
-[chuckles]
-Yeah! We are!
We're like pros, now!
Wow, it's true!
You sound great!
We're glad you're back!
Thanks to everyone's help,
we're learning,
and now we're a lot
more used to this world.
[RIO]
I'm glad to hear that!
By the way.
We've got some news
we'd like to share.
Huh?
[RIO]
While we were away,
we learned that Miharu's
friend Satsuki Sumeragi
has been summoned to the
Galarc Kingdom as a Hero!
[all gasp]
She's a hero?
No way!
You found her!
What about my brother?
I'm sorry, Aki.
I still haven't gotten
any leads
on your big brother yet.
Oh, that's all right.
But hey, now that
we know that Satsuki is here.
It honestly wouldn't
surprise me
if your brother was somewhere
in this world, too.
You're right! And who knows,
maybe he got summoned
to the same part
of the world as Satsuki!
Maybe she's right!
Yeah!
[RIO]
In a month from now,
the nobles of Galarc
will have a party
where they'll introduce
Satsuki.
And my understanding is that
I'll be able to attend.
So, if you three
are interested,
we could all travel
to the Galarc Kingdom together.
For real?
Hey! We should
have a big celebration
before you all leave us!
Great idea!
It's amazing that
in a whole new world
they were still able
to find their friend!
Yeah, well, that's
an achievement
to be proud of, for sure!
Rio, Miss Celia,
and Lady Aishia
have all returned!
Today is a day of happiness,
and that alone
is worth celebrating!
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
-[stomach rumbling]
-[gasps]
It's just because
I came without eating
Miharu's omurice!
Outta my way!
Last one there's a rotten egg!
Hey! You better save some
for the rest of us, or else!
[laughs]
Let's go home!
Come on!
Yes, ma'am!
[MIHARU]
You're still you.
I'm so glad.
Thanks for coming back
as I remembered you.

Big Brother
wants some omurice, too!

But it's a special occasion,
I can make anything
you want to eat.
The food
I want most is omurice.
[MIHARU]
Just like Haruto back home.

everything you cook
ends up tasting amazing!
If you make it, I'll love it!

we should accept our defeat
as the utter lashing
that it was.
Uh
[REISS] Going forward,
we shall put any plans
to remove him
from the picture aside.
Noninterference
would serve us best.
Come on!
Not now!
[REISS] If I want opinions
from losers, I'll ask.
Until then, your objections
are of no relevance.

Princess Flora, you're alive!

Oh, Rohanna.
[GUSTAV]
Oh, Princess.
I'm glad you're unharmed.
[LISELOTTE] Feel free to use
this chair, if you please.

[RIO] Here we are,
let's set you down.
Yes, thank you for carrying me.
♪
Haruto.
Thank you, sir.
[RIO]
My pleasure.
Now then, we'll be on our way.
Let's help those outside.
-Yes.
-Right.
Before you go, the attendants
I had deployed to other areas
have begun to return.
They can assist those
that need help outside.
Please get some rest!
I'll have some rooms
prepared right away!
That's perfect.
And you can let us
handle things
while you do the same.
We'll ask Princess Flora
for more details.
[LISELOTTE]
That would be wonderful.
Meanwhile, please allow me
to arrange a time
and place for us
to all meet later.
We'll have plenty
of information to exchange.
And you too, Sir Haruto.
Would you be willing to come
and relay your side
of what happened?
Yes, ma'am, of course.
Tonight, after
we share our information.
please allow me to express
my gratitude
for saving the Princess.
The sentiment is more than
enough, My Lord.
Now, we must be on our way.

Spirit chronicles 2
Here you go!
[slurps]
[AISHIA]
It's delicious!
It tastes curiously like
Haruto's!
I've told you.
That's because
I'm the one who taught Rio!
[CELIA]
Right, Rio?
Rio, you hear me?
I did.
It's just that
Princess Flora.
She found out who I really am.
What?
She did?
How?
[CELIA] That explains why
she looked like that earlier.
If she knows,
will she reveal it?
I asked her to put
the name Rio out of her mind.
She seemed to understand,
but it's hard to say.
In that case, I don't think
you have to worry about
her mentioning it to anyone.
She's the sort
who will honor your request.
I'm certain she won't tell.
Well, all right.
If you say so, Professor.
She may be willing
to keep my secret,
but I'm not the only one
at risk of being discovered.
We don't want anyone
to find out your identity.
[CELIA]
That's true.
For now, let's finish
our talks with Miss Liselotte,
then we'll head back
to the Village of Spirits.
Good idea.
I'd like that.
[RIO]
As I mentioned yesterday.
Miss Satsuki Sumeragi.
One of Miharu's friends,
was one of the people
summoned from her world
to Galarc as a hero.
I'd like to let Miharu know.
Sounds good to me.
[RIO] Are you all right
with that, Aishia?
Yes, but, are you?
What are your feelings?
Are you sure you want
to leave like this?
I am
I feel good.
Then, it's fine.
Huh?
Something wrong, Professor?
[CELIA]
Um, well
[RIO]
Yes?
This Lucius, I can't help
but want to know what happened
between you and him
all those years ago.
You said your lives
have long been entangled.
But, don't feel
pressured to talk!
Please!
I'm just curious, is all.
I'm avenging my mom.
[RIO]
He's the man who killed her
right in front of me
as a child.
And I'm not sure,
but he may be the person
who killed my dad, too.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
It seems I've dredged up
the worst memory
of your life, haven't I?
No, ma'am. I intended
to tell you if you asked.
I've always wanted
to share the truth with you.
Only, it's really
not a pleasant story.
I can never forgive him
for what he did.
I loathe him beyond belief.
But after years of hunting,
I finally got
what I was looking for.
I found him
and confronted him head-on.
I'm fine.
Good.
[RIO]
If possible, I'd be grateful
if this information
could remain
between the three of us.
As it stands,
very few people know of it.
I'm honored, then.
Thanks for telling me.
And yes, I've told you
this before,
and I meant it,
you can always confide in me.
No matter what happens, Rio.
I hope you know
I'm on your side.
Yeah.
[GUSTAV] In the hours
since you heroically rescued
the Princess from her captor,
we've come to learn
more about the man.
Anything
you're willing to share?
His current residency
and whereabouts are unknown,
he was born in Beltrum
to a low-ranked noble house.
Were you aware of that, sir?
I was not, no, sir.
His name is Lucius Orgueil.
He was once a candidate
to become the King's Sword.
In point of fact,
he and the current
title-holder, Alfred Emerle,
once fought for it.
♪
But when the Orgueil family's
house fell from nobility,
he no longer qualified to be
appointed as the King's Sword.
If that's true,
perhaps that was his motive
for the kidnapping plot,
a deep seeded hatred
of the Beltrum Kingdom.
Yeesh, that's no reason
to kidnap a princess.
The dude's nothing
but a petty drop-out.
[LISELOTTE] Truth be told,
we haven't determined
his actual motives yet.
But you know,
I'm curious about
his accomplice, Reiss.
Reiss, is it?
I believe I have heard
that name in passing.
It belonged
to a Proxia Empire diplomat
rumored to have secret
connections with House Arbor.
Though, it's possible
that they simply
share the same name.
Well, according
to Princess Flora,
this Reiss character
kept his face hidden
under a hood.
Sir Haruto,
did you make out anything?
No, not clearly.
Even if I were to see
the diplomat's face,
I'm not sure I could verify
whether they were the same.
[LISELOTTE] Then for now,
our surest path forward
is going after the man
we confirmed is Lucius.
He's our main lead.
Yes, indeed.
I will look into whether
he's had any contact
with our forces.
To complete my investigation,
I must venture back
to Rodania at once.
You have my thanks.
I will go and investigate
matters on my end.
[GUSTAV]
Yes.
And you, sir?
You have done more than
your fair share,
may I ask what your next order
of business is?
Well, an urgent matter
has arisen for me,
so I'm planning to leave
Amande for a short while.
We will be sad to see you go.
In that case, then
allow me to speak
to my maidens.
We want to give you
some supplies
as thanks for your sacrifices.
After what your town
just went through,
you'll need supplies.
You've got a long road
to recovery ahead of you.
There's no need
to overextend yourself for me.
Nonsense, you won't
leave empty handed.
If it weren't for all
of your heroic efforts,
we might not be sitting here.
Is there anything
you may want?
To tell you the truth,
I've been struggling
to find a gift
worthy enough to convey our
profound sense of gratitude.
[RIO]
Well, there is something
I'd like to request
of Lady Liselotte.
-Of course.
-[RIO] If it's possible
may I attend your soiree?
In Galarc, where you said
you plan to introduce
the new Heroes?
You mean the party
where all of the heroes
are introduced?
Then I assume you know
it's being held at our
royal palace in the evening.
And your request
is simply to attend?
Yes, ma'am.
My companions and I
we wish to meet
Satsuki Sumeragi.
[birds chirping]
A few days later.
[yawns]
[MASATO]
Morning.
-Good morning!
-Good morning!
It's not fair when you
oversleep like that, Masato!
You know
we're all waiting on you!
Today's the day Miharu
is making omurice
for everybody!
Omurice?
Wait, for real?
And you can have some
once you've washed up.
[MASATO]
On it!

Hey, Rio!

Have you all been well, too?

We're like pros, now!
Wow, it's true!
You sound great!
We're glad you're back!
Thanks to everyone's help,
we're learning,
and now we're a lot
more used to this world.
[RIO]
I'm glad to hear that!
By the way.
We've got some news
we'd like to share.
Huh?
[RIO]
While we were away,
we learned that Miharu's
friend Satsuki Sumeragi
has been summoned to the
Galarc Kingdom as a Hero!
[all gasp]
She's a hero?
No way!
You found her!
What about my brother?
I'm sorry, Aki.
I still haven't gotten
any leads
on your big brother yet.
Oh, that's all right.
But hey, now that
we know that Satsuki is here.
It honestly wouldn't
surprise me
if your brother was somewhere
in this world, too.
You're right! And who knows,
maybe he got summoned
to the same part
of the world as Satsuki!
Maybe she's right!
Yeah!
[RIO]
In a month from now,
the nobles of Galarc
will have a party
where they'll introduce
Satsuki.
And my understanding is that
I'll be able to attend.
So, if you three
are interested,
we could all travel
to the Galarc Kingdom together.
For real?
Hey! We should
have a big celebration
before you all leave us!
Great idea!
It's amazing that
in a whole new world
they were still able
to find their friend!
Yeah, well, that's
an achievement
to be proud of, for sure!
Rio, Miss Celia,
and Lady Aishia
have all returned!
Today is a day of happiness,
and that alone
is worth celebrating!
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
-[stomach rumbling]
-[gasps]
It's just because
I came without eating
Miharu's omurice!
Outta my way!
Last one there's a rotten egg!
Hey! You better save some
for the rest of us, or else!
[laughs]
Let's go home!
Come on!
Yes, ma'am!

You're still you.
I'm so glad.
Thanks for coming back
as I remembered you.

It is you.

I want most is omurice.
