WEBVTT 00:06.190 --> 00:09.020 Whatever it is you want to see, I want to help you see it. 00:10.030 --> 00:13.000 If there's something you don't know, I'll teach you. 00:13.000 --> 00:17.170 Though, when you want to achieve something solely through your own efforts, I won't interfere. 00:18.610 --> 00:21.020 What kind of scholar will you become? 00:21.020 --> 00:23.830 I'm very much looking forward to finding out. 00:24.520 --> 00:27.460 Why do you take such good care of me? 00:30.880 --> 00:35.750 Perhaps because this may be the only good thing I am able to do in my life. 00:45.930 --> 00:47.080 Professor! 00:47.770 --> 00:49.350 Hey there, Rishe. 00:53.200 --> 00:54.560 Please stand back! 00:55.200 --> 00:57.230 This suspicious person has declared 00:57.230 --> 00:59.950 he will cause an act of violence in town at six this evening! 00:59.950 --> 01:01.780 It's just as he says. 01:02.210 --> 01:06.620 And you think that by doing so, Prince Arnold will hear of the power of black powder? 01:08.680 --> 01:09.880 That's right. 01:09.880 --> 01:13.320 Such an action will affect people unrelated to this matter! 01:13.320 --> 01:15.350 Yes, I understand that. 01:15.350 --> 01:16.260 Professor! 01:17.010 --> 01:20.010 Well, its unveiling demands as much. 01:20.980 --> 01:23.210 As it's something I have created... 01:23.730 --> 01:26.520 I must take responsibility for it. 01:27.370 --> 01:31.900 Even if it means causing misfortune for someone else. 01:34.550 --> 01:37.950 My own existence is just the same. 01:38.400 --> 01:40.360 I'm sorry, Rishe. 01:59.180 --> 02:03.650 The words of a person like me... shouldn't be taken at face value. 02:05.510 --> 02:09.850 Taking you on as my student was no more than a whim of mine. 02:14.270 --> 02:15.290 Sister! 02:22.170 --> 02:26.120 I once asked the professor... 02:26.510 --> 02:31.330 Is it truly impossible for a poison to bring someone happiness? 02:33.500 --> 02:36.590 But instead of asking... 02:37.910 --> 02:42.340 Professor, I may only have been your student for a brief time, 02:43.400 --> 02:46.720 but I can say this with certainty... 02:48.020 --> 02:52.160 even a poison can bring happiness to someone. 02:55.640 --> 02:59.780 My alchemy teacher once told me, 03:00.320 --> 03:05.200 "If one fails to take all variables into account, the experiment will fail." 03:06.870 --> 03:10.450 No matter how great an alchemist you may be, 03:10.450 --> 03:13.700 your results will not always be as you anticipated. 03:15.220 --> 03:16.250 That is because... 03:16.250 --> 03:21.130 it was impossible for you to comprehend the variable that I am. 03:21.800 --> 03:22.980 What are you saying? 03:35.060 --> 03:35.970 What is that? 03:38.230 --> 03:42.030 Professor, the things you create aren't only poisons. 03:42.460 --> 03:47.130 Even if you can only think of them as things which bring misfortune to others, 03:47.130 --> 03:50.910 if their method of use is changed, many other types of value appear. 04:10.680 --> 04:12.600 Colored flames? 04:14.040 --> 04:16.220 The black powder exploded in the sky? 04:17.340 --> 04:18.780 What is all this? 04:20.250 --> 04:25.700 I once looked for a simple way to differentiate between types of metals. 04:26.400 --> 04:31.990 At that time, someone showed me the beautiful aurora, and I remembered... 04:32.520 --> 04:36.720 When fire is applied to metal, it gives off a beautiful light. 04:38.440 --> 04:39.860 That's true. 04:39.860 --> 04:43.810 When metals are burned, the flames turn different colors. 04:43.810 --> 04:44.580 Yes. 04:45.080 --> 04:47.850 However, that wasn't all. 04:48.680 --> 04:50.310 With a new perspective, 04:50.310 --> 04:53.930 I obtained a method to change the colors of a flame. 04:55.350 --> 04:58.010 Tiny lights, floating in the darkness... 04:58.010 --> 05:02.590 they may look like the torches of war, or like the lights of fireflies. 05:02.590 --> 05:07.360 Each and every material and phenomenon holds more than one meaning. 05:07.690 --> 05:10.370 So does the black powder, and so do you, Professor Michel. 05:10.370 --> 05:15.370 There is nothing which exists solely to bring misfortune to others. 05:16.610 --> 05:20.670 And you plotted all of this to make me understand that? 05:21.500 --> 05:23.250 Why would you go so far? 05:23.710 --> 05:26.760 Because I am your student. 05:29.160 --> 05:31.690 If you wish to repudiate someone else's research, 05:31.690 --> 05:34.420 you must show results as counter-evidence. 05:35.160 --> 05:38.060 If you're an alchemist, that is. 05:38.620 --> 05:42.640 Without substantiation, the professor would never change his thinking. 05:43.440 --> 05:44.340 That's why... 05:45.860 --> 05:49.140 I will devote all of myself to trying to persuade you. 05:49.740 --> 05:51.990 Observe with your own eyes. 05:52.430 --> 05:54.410 Something which you have created... 05:54.410 --> 05:56.810 is exhibiting a value which you did not know of. 05:56.810 --> 05:58.110 Just look at it! 06:03.940 --> 06:08.820 I understand flame reactions and the effect of black powder, and yet... 06:09.760 --> 06:12.300 I never imagined a use like this existed. 06:44.470 --> 06:46.870 You're amazing, Rishe. 06:47.290 --> 06:49.940 No, you're the amazing one, Professor. 06:50.810 --> 06:55.270 I'm sure that there are other things which you thought could only be poisons 06:55.270 --> 06:57.760 which have other splendid uses. 06:58.370 --> 07:03.920 After all, you're the most brilliant alchemist in all the world! 07:10.760 --> 07:12.250 I see. 07:13.010 --> 07:19.280 So, I was able to create the source of something that beautiful. 07:26.760 --> 07:28.860 It seems they all launched safely. 07:35.530 --> 07:37.220 Thank you. 07:37.220 --> 07:39.620 It was really a lot of work. 07:40.820 --> 07:43.390 Could you give this to everyone for me? 07:43.950 --> 07:46.060 This? What is it? 07:46.520 --> 07:48.940 The amount of black powder and where it was set... 07:48.940 --> 07:52.290 Because I saw his experiment planner in my third life, 07:52.290 --> 07:55.300 I could narrow down the possibilities, even in this large capital city. 07:56.280 --> 07:58.620 After that, I took the professor's area of activity, 07:58.620 --> 08:01.840 and looked for spots that matched the right conditions. 08:02.780 --> 08:08.910 The rest was all thanks to everyone involved in this matter doing their jobs perfectly. 08:10.520 --> 08:13.940 Your Highness's retainers really are exceptional, aren't they? 08:18.370 --> 08:20.050 Lord Lawvine? 08:21.030 --> 08:22.660 As you ordered. 08:22.660 --> 08:23.630 Good work. 08:24.180 --> 08:25.480 Michel Hévin. 08:25.480 --> 08:28.360 This incident.
