7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy (2024) s01e09 Episode Script

1
I have to keep my identity
from being discovered by Lord Lawvine
and somehow get through the banquet.
Moreover,
I would like Prince Kyle
to take the medicine somehow.
Without treatment, he won't even be able
to get up from his bed in the near future.
What a surprise!
I thought it must be someone
in a similar occupation to me
tending such a field of medicinal herbs.
Hello.
You, who seem to be my kind of people.
Doctor Michel!
How is the aurora?
Did you get inspiration for your research?
Yes, absolutely!
That's good to hear.
I'm sorry for making you travel
all the way out here, Doctor.
Why are you apologizing?
You are my pupil.
I'll show you whatever you want to see.
If there is something you don't know,
I will teach you.
However, if you want to get there
on your own, I won't interfere.
He was my teacher
in my third life.
Pardon me, sir.
May I ask your name, please?
Oh! Sorry if I surprised you.
My name is Michel Hévin.
I'm from Coyolles.
If you're lost,
allow me to show you your room.
That's very kind of you, but I'm not lost.
I'm interested in that girl right there.
-She's our--
-It's all right.
I'm Rishe Irmgard Weitzner.
Are you a scholar, Mr. Hévin?
A scholar, huh?
I guess that's the simplest way to put it.
It looks like,
those nails have been tinted
with gelwood sap, right?
What method did you use for the hardening?
Lish grass with gibi's nectar
and lapet grass, mixed with glue.
Is there a reason you didn't use
cyril grass to prevent air bubbles?
You see through it all, huh?
It's just theoretical calculations though.
What do you think would happen
if you mix it with estoma sap?
I think it would harden the tint
even more.
However, it is only a hypothesis.
We need to verify
what the results will be.
You are such a smart girl.
If it's possible,
I would make you my pupil.
If you don't mind, I would appreciate it
if you could teach me while you are here.
Yeah, that's fine by me.
Thank you so much!
I guess you are
my teacher then, Mr. Hévin.
Teacher, huh?
That's kind of interesting.
I didn't think there would ever be a day
when I could call him "teacher" again.
By the way, my pupil,
the medicinal herbs in this field
seem to be a little
out of my area of expertise,
so I'm just guessing.
Do you, by any chance,
want to poison Kyle?
Mademoiselle Rishe, I never thought
I'd have the pleasure
of seeing you twice in one day.
Please, don't feel concerned about it
and be at ease.
Well, then, with all due respect…
Michel, what on earth are you doing here?
I found an awesome girl,
and I thought you might like
to meet her, Kyle.
She is the fiancée of the Crown Prince.
Huh, is that so?
But this girl just became my pupil.
Huh?
I think her concoction
might help you, Kyle.
Concoction?
It wasn't my area of expertise,
but I figured I should experiment
with you on this one, Kyle.
Doctor, you can't conduct
an experiment on a prince!
Huh? So it's no good, then?
Common sense
is a difficult thing to define.
But, from the bottom of my heart,
I want Kyle to get better.
I understand.
Are you sure?
It's the medication that the best scholar
in our country is willing to try.
In fact,
I am prepared to do everything in my power
to conquer this disease.
All right, I will get everything ready
as soon as I can.
Here's the medication.
There is actually only one problem
with this medication.
Please do tell me.
This medication…
tastes really nasty!
It tastes really nasty?
Oh, is that so?
Kyle will be fine.
After all, he's a very strong kid,
diligent and hardworking, you know?
Mademoiselle Rishe, if this is
the tribulation I have been given,
then I will do my utmost to overcome it
with all my strength.
Yes, I'll get him to drink it.
You can't do that!
-Say, "Ah!"
-He needs some water…
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
So, how does it taste, Kyle?
What does it taste like?
The distinctive smell,
like that of a stable,
hits you in a mixture
of bitterness and sourness.
Then there is the strange sweetness
after drinking it all down,
making it slimy on the tongue.
You don't have to describe it!
-Please get some water!
-Ty a little more.
Right away!
Here, take another sip.
Doctor!
By the way, my pupil.
Would you like to take a look at this
while you wait for your pick up?
Doctor, this is…
It's my research paper.
Although Kyle told me it's too complicated
for anyone to understand.
You are indeed a very interesting girl.
You really dislike these medications,
huh, Rishe?
You're a bright girl.
If I had to point out a flaw,
it would be that you
only want to use your knowledge
and skills to make people happy.
I think it's wrong for you
to determine the happiness of others.
The whole point of being born as a poison
is to make people suffer
as it was meant to do, isn't it?
Does poison really not have the power
to make someone happy?
It's not like you to assume
that something was born
to make someone suffer, Doctor.
Don't worry about it.
This drug is not finished yet.
It's getting ready to be done,
but we can't get the people
we need to do the demonstration.
I can't find anyone
willing to use these medications
the way I want them to be used.
Doctor and I…
couldn't come to an agreement
regarding that medication.
I wonder if he met the right person
he was looking for.
Pardon my intrusion!
Lady Rishe, about your pick up…
We're going back, Rishe.
Your Highness Arnold?
Why are you coming here yourself?
He is Doctor Michel Hévin.
He's very knowledgeable
and willing to teach me during his stay!
I'm honored to be introduced.
Perhaps I should put on
a more reserved face for once.
Greetings.
You are the Crown Prince
of this country, I assume?
Thank you very much for granting us access
to the National Library.
If there is anything you need
to share your knowledge with my wife,
we will provide it.
Whatever is required.
Then I shall not hesitate
to ask for a lot of help.
Why are you picking me up so suddenly?
I was just on my way home.
Do you always move around until this late?
When I get carried away with my work,
I end up losing track of time.
Oh, but don't worry,
I'm sleeping in until noon.
Here.
At least use that.
Huh?
Isn't this your precious pocket watch?
It's all right.
Thanks to its portability,
it came in handy on the battlefield.
On the battlefield?
You mean for tactical purposes?
Yes.
Many doubt it
simply because of its "short history,"
but it's a tool that keeps time precisely.
His Highness is very flexible
in adopting new technologies.
I can't find anyone
willing to use these medications
the way I want them to be used.
What?
Nothing.
Then, I will take your word and borrow it.
As I recall, my former pharmacology
teacher also found this useful.
-Your teacher?
-Yes.
He was a really great pharmacist
from Renhua.
How does that man compare to your teacher?
Doctor Michel is not
a pharmacist, you see.
He uses medications in his research,
so he has some knowledge.
Then, who in the world is he?
He is the kind of scholar who studies
various substances in this world
and creates new ones!
He is creating a new substance?
In Doctor Michel's case,
his goal is not to create gold,
but the name that comes closest
to describing him would be…
an alchemist.
I have to behave myself
so that Lord Lawvine
does not find out that I am Lucius
at tonight's banquet.
Lady Rishe, you have received a letter.
Thanks.
From Madam Michaela?
I told you that
it would be completed in a month,
but since we were able to commission
a craftsman from Coyolles in Galkhein,
we will be able to shorten
the delivery time significantly.
I can't believe a change in a craftsman
can make that much difference.
Wonderful.
Your Highness, you have a look
of utter displeasure on your face.
I am showing it.
No problem.
Your Highness Arnold.
Thank you so much
for creating this opportunity for me.
I am very grateful for your generosity!
Mademoiselle Rishe,
how beautiful you are this evening!
Thank you so much!
How have you been feeling since then?
Thanks to your help, I feel much better.
That's good to hear.
Your Highness Arnold,
I shall go and speak with the ladies.
Well, Your Highness Kyle,
I hope you enjoy this banquet.
Now that I've finished my greetings,
I think I've done the bare minimum
of my duties.
After that…
Okay, let's focus.
I found him.
It's been a while since I did this,
but I managed to do it well.
I never thought my fifth life experience
would come in handy in a place like this.
I'm going to stay focused like this.
I will make sure no one realizes that
-I am running away from Lord Lawvine.
-Lady Rishe.
Good day to you.
It is a pleasure to meet you, Lady Rishe.
The pleasure is mine.
It is my pleasure
to greet you as well, Lord Weilman.
I have heard about you from my mother
and was looking forward to meeting you.
Your mother, you say?
I heard that you recently became
a customer of my mother's store.
I can't believe it, that moody person…
Even Her Majesty the Empress
couldn't be a guest.
Are you perhaps…
I am the owner of this store.
My name is Michaela Laure Weilman.
I only selected the stone.
It was His Highness Arnold
who purchased it.
Oh, my!
His Highness Arnold
gives jewelry to a woman?
I was surprised too.
I heard that the delivery time
for the ring
is going to be greatly reduced.
I was told that it's because the craftsmen
of Coyolles are helping them.
Is there really that much of a difference?
That is because Coyolles' jewelers
have exceptional skills.
The speed required to achieve the
most delicate workmanship is different.
Wow!
As can be expected from the country
which boasts of jewelry, gold and silver.
It looks like Lord Lawvine
is standing still.
May I ask you, Your Highness Arnold,
to lend my Coyolles a helping hand?
We would like to ask for the support
of Galkhein in terms of military aspects,
not monetary, medical or other support.
And as you are aware,
Coyolles has almost no military power.
Our country is being allowed to exist
by providing jewels, gold and silver.
While neighboring countries
threaten to wipe us out
whenever they feel like it…
I want to get out of that predicament
and have the means to protect my people.
So you are saying that Coyolles
wants to make a treaty with Galkhein?
It is as you say.
I wonder what you're going to say.
Is that the reason why you came
all the way to visit me,
pushing your sickly body so far?
I wonder if there's any value in the
existence of a peace-loving royal family.
Let's say we do proceed,
what does Coyolles have
in store for our country?
I assure you that jewelry, gold and silver
shall be exported to your country
with the highest priority.
Even at the risk of
our own country's profitability.
Don't do that, Prince Kyle.
You are not cut out for lying.
Don't make me laugh.
If I were in your shoes,
I would make sure to put
a time limit on that condition.
It's impossible to continue
to provide jewelry,
your largest source of revenue,
without regard to profit.
About that…
It's obvious why
you proposed such an idea.
Coyolles' mineral resources
are running dry, aren't they?
So that's how it is.
But I can't quite figure it out.
Your actions are nothing short of foolish.
My life will surely not be that long.
A new life
is coming into the royal family.
And I must do what I can now
for the future of that child
and for the sake of my own people.
From what I have learned,
Your Highness Arnold is a politician
who cares for his people
and reaches out to them.
If it were you--
This conversation isn't going anywhere.
Please wait a moment!
I beg you, Your Highness Arnold.
Please, for my Coyolles…
I think you are mistaken about something.
It suits my nature better to invade
and keep a country under my control
than to join hands with another country.
Five years from now,
His Highness Arnold, who has become
the Emperor, will wage war on the world,
and Coyolles will have to fight Galkhein.
And so many lives…
But Prince Kyle has proposed an alliance
to His Highness Arnold.
This is a turning point in history
that could change the future.
Weitzner,
I want to protect this country.
I will do whatever it takes
to achieve that goal.
That's be the most important
responsibility I have
since I was born dying.
Prince Kyle may be prepared
to become a vassal state of Galkhein
if it means forging an alliance.
However…
that will only change the rulers
if he can't establish
a relationship of equals.
But…
Such a method…
