7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy (2024) s01e10 Episode Script
A Sweetly Fragrant Cigarette Is Lit
1
What's wrong?
I couldn't manage to do anything.
I assume it's about the Crown Prince.
He says that it is in his nature
to invade and subjugate other countries
rather than join hands with them.
Oh?
He would do such a thing.
I finally found it.
A king who understands poison
and will use it correctly.
If negotiations with His Highness Arnold
were to break down now,
Coyolles might well be invaded.
If that happens…
You're so eager early in the morning.
Lord Lawvine.
But it seems your sword has been wavering.
Actually, I was thinking about
something pathetic.
"Something pathetic," you say?
If one day we have to go to war
with another country,
everyone here
is going to have to fight, right?
That's right.
That kind of future scares me.
It's only natural
that you would be horrified.
Huh?
My son lost his life in the recent war.
I am proud of my son
who fought so bravely.
However…
as proud as I was of that,
I wished my son were still alive.
Lord Lawvine.
War is about taking someone's future
and having it taken away at the same time.
The only way to overcome that fear
is to confront it.
To confront it?
Do not deny your own wishes and feelings.
And then use it as fuel to move forward.
You have to figure out
what you can do.
Thank you so much
for the advice, Lord Lawvine!
Then, see you later.
I don't want to die in war anymore.
I don't want Coyolles to perish either.
But that's not all.
It suits my nature better to invade
and keep a country under my control
than to join hands with another country.
I want His Highness Arnold to know
that he is not that kind of man.
We have decided to give him
a special opportunity
to watch your training.
He is the Crown Prince of this country,
His Highness Arnold Hein.
Why is His Highness Arnold here?
No matter how you look at it,
he totally recognizes me!
I want to see the trainees in action.
Sir!
Is this perhaps his way of saying
that he is willing to overlook it?
There's no way he would do that.
So? What on earth are you doing here?
I hope Your Highness the Crown Prince
is doing well.
It is a great honor for me as a candidate
to be personally invited by you.
Oh?
If you're not who I think you are…
that means you don't mind
if I touch you directly, do you?
Come on. Try to argue with me quickly.
Your Highness Arnold,
please step away for a moment!
I refuse.
If you don't, someone will see us.
-Is that a problem?
-It is a big deal!
How so?
I believe you have a fiancée.
Well, I sure have.
I know you do!
However,
for a mere knight candidate
you're quite rude, huh?
I'm terribly sorry.
I don't know what you're apologizing for.
Tell me what you did with your own mouth.
To sneak into
the knight candidate's training,
I disguised myself as a man
without telling Your Highness!
My sincere apologies!
Well done.
But why are you doing all this?
It's just…
I wish to take the training you designed.
If you want to continue,
there are conditions for you.
Make sure you rest well.
And don't let them know your gender.
Huh?
Can you do it?
Yes! Thank you very much!
Do you really enjoy
receiving this training that much?
Yes!
The training program you have designed
is very impressive, Your Highness Arnold!
It shows your desire
to take good care of your knights.
Human resources are national assets
after all.
But to send those knights
into the battlefield in the future…
I heard your conversation
with His Highness Kyle.
Sure you did.
I can pretty much figure out
what you're thinking.
You are trying to convince me
to make a treaty with Coyolles,
aren't you?
But that country, which has lost
its national strength, is worthless.
It's just a matter of who
will deliver the finishing blow
to a country that is just waiting
to be destroyed sooner or later.
Sometimes you are a terrible liar,
Your Highness Arnold.
It's up to you to decide
what you think about me.
Remember it well.
War is not an outrageous choice
for this country at all.
It's just another political tool.
My first encounter with Prince Kyle
was when I was a merchant.
In the midst of the rain,
you must have had a hard time on the road
while protecting your belongings.
Our country, with its scarcity of goods,
is able to maintain its livelihood
thanks to the support of you merchants.
I would like to offer my respect
and appreciation to all of you.
Despite being royalty,
he was a man who showed respect
for people from various backgrounds.
The second time I met him
was during my life as a pharmacist.
Even then, he treated me
with the utmost care.
And the third time was…
I'll talk to my father
about the research funding.
I know you two will get the results.
I will make sure to get him to agree.
Did it go well?
Congratulations.
Above all, I am so happy
that your hard work has been rewarded.
It's because Prince Kyle is such a person,
I…
Your Highness will be taking
these medicines as well from today.
The taste is just as bad, but…
As long as this body works properly,
it's nothing to worry about.
Your Highness Kyle,
I happened to overhear you talking
with His Highness Arnold
the other day at the evening banquet.
I am sorry to show you
my embarrassing side.
Usually, it is a courtesy
to return home at that point.
But I can't give up just like that.
Did you not consider it dangerous?
You are aware that during the war
His Highness Arnold beheaded
the royalty of a hostile country?
I have thoroughly investigated
His Highness Arnold's activities,
from his war results to his policies.
Although it appears
to be cleverly camouflaged,
there is no doubt that he has
his own intentions at work
in his concern for the people
in domestic affairs.
I believe that killing the enemy king
in the last war
may have been a kind of mercy
to avoid any disasters.
Besides…
The fact that His Highness is a cruel man
does not change what I have to do.
I have a request, Prince Kyle.
Could you please form
a small alliance with me first?
An alliance with you?
We will need your help…
to convince His Highness Arnold.
Thank you so much.
They were all very interesting!
You sure like to learn, don't you?
Yes, very much!
Anything new is exciting to learn!
Because the world is expanding,
even the scenery of yesterday
looks different!
I'm convinced now.
You're not suited to be a princess.
Doctor?
You should have come to me.
If you do, I'll teach you everything
you don't know, all right?
Thank you for the offer.
But I'm marrying His Highness Arnold, so…
Arnold Hein, huh?
I can see why you are attracted to him.
I'm interested in him too.
Apparently, he turned down Kyle's request.
I liked the way
he turned it down, you know?
I have a feeling Arnold Hein
would use it very effectively.
The chemical I created
and named "gunpowder."
I've been looking for someone like him.
I never thought
I'd meet him in this country.
His Highness is a very kind person
despite of his appearance.
Even if he said something terrible
to His Highness Kyle,
-he probably didn't mean--
-Hey, Rishe.
Can you bring me to him?
Of course I can.
I will ask him if he can make time for you
in the near future.
Then let's go see him now.
His Highness is a very busy man,
if it's so sudden--
If he's as kind as you say,
he'll forgive me, right?
That's…
I get it.
You don't really want him
to meet me, right?
You didn't ask
what "gunpowder" is,
did you?
The first time I heard about gunpowder
from Doctor
was during my third life.
By any means,
you can't stop your experiments, huh?
I'm sorry, Rishe.
Even if many people
lose their lives for it?
"Things created by human beings
must be used correctly."
I have a problem with this admonition.
That means no one
can define what is "correct."
If this gunpowder of mine
is used "correctly,"
the world will surely be destroyed easily.
But is that really a mistake?
How does my creation
make a change to the world?
Is it such a bad thing to want to see it?
Doctor…
Farewell, my pupil.
I wish you…
all the best and may your life
be right for you.
I could not accept "gunpowder."
It will turn the world upside down
and make things messy.
I've been looking for someone
with those royal credentials
for a long time.
Someone like Arnold Hein.
I need to somehow build a friendship
between Coyolles and Galkhein.
And Doctor Michel,
who's already like that,
will try to get close to His Highness
Arnold by any means necessary.
And when that happens,
His Highness will use gunpowder--
Your Highness Theodore?
I heard your disguise was found out.
I'm so sorry.
Even if you could have deceived him,
I wouldn't have felt right about it,
so that's not my problem.
Even so, you are so quick
with the updates.
My vassals are excellent, you see.
I have a complete network of information
on what happens to my brother,
so that I can find out immediately
where he is.
It's not just about my brother.
I'm the one who sent you in,
sister-in-law.
I have investigated the backgrounds
of the knight candidates.
If anything goes wrong,
I won't be able to face my brother.
Thank you so much!
Well, it's not that I'm worried about you.
This is for my brother's sake, you know.
Yes, I understand.
Actually, I have a favor
to ask you, Your Highness.
Could I borrow
some of your best vassals
for a little while?
Is that going to help my brother?
No.
Instead, it is a revolt
against His Highness Arnold.
That's nice.
It sounds like fun,
so I'll lend you a hand.
Then we have a deal.
My wife is dead…
because you were born…
so you have to pay for that.
You who were born to make us unhappy,
you damn reaper.
Whenever I was hungry or even lonely,
studies were there for me.
The knowledge enters my mind
and sinks into my body.
Just like breathing and drinking water.
This child has inherited my talent.
Use it as much as you like on my behalf.
The world has expanded
since he put me in the institute.
I wanted to learn,
and after much experimentation,
it always gave me the answer.
What in the world is going on?
How could anyone be this good
at making chemicals that kill people.
A short time later the war broke out,
everything was burned,
the alchemists in the institute,
including my father, all lost their lives.
It was by chance that "it" was created.
A chemical with the power
to destroy anything.
And that was "gunpowder."
As I thought, you're the reaper.
Like my father said,
I was born
to make someone else feel unhappy.
In my past life,
I could not convince Doctor Michel.
Doctor.
Hey, Rishe.
Have you been able
to make a plan to get me to meet him?
Are you really going to hand over the
gunpowder to His Highness Arnold, Doctor?
What is created as a poison
is only meaningful
if it fulfills its calling.
Everything must fulfill
the purpose for which it was created.
It is the same with my existence.
A man born to stir up the world
must move in accordance with his calling.
In my third life,
Doctor said the same words.
Even if…
many people lose their lives for it?
That's right.
The gunpowder's sole purpose of existence
is to make people miserable.
I'm sorry, Rishe.
I'm not trying to be mean to you.
That much is true.
This is my calling.
I'm sure Doctor will use
any means necessary
to bring gunpowder to His Highness.
Good night. Rishe.
At this rate…
I can't stop doctor.
What's wrong?
I couldn't manage to do anything.
I assume it's about the Crown Prince.
He says that it is in his nature
to invade and subjugate other countries
rather than join hands with them.
