Sir Cecil! 00:20.930 --> 00:26.220 If I don't pick you, then you're just a clever doll and nothing more! 00:26.680 --> 00:29.940 Yes, what she said was true. 00:30.220 --> 00:34.850 Back then, I was a living doll with no emotions. 00:35.420 --> 00:40.350 But that's precisely why there was exactly one thing I wished for... 00:41.730 --> 00:44.900 Someone who would spark my interest... Someone I would cherish... 00:45.300 --> 00:48.640 I wanted someone who would draw those emotions out of me. 00:50.830 --> 00:53.200 That was not my Tia. 00:54.630 --> 00:59.740 The scene I just saw was shown to me, like a dream, by the light spirit. 00:59.740 --> 01:03.130 It wasn't reality. I know that. 01:03.380 --> 01:07.640 And yet, that vivid sensation of being emotionless, like I was then... 01:07.990 --> 01:12.110 As I spent time with Tia, I gathered the warmth known as "emotions" to me, 01:12.110 --> 01:14.230 and I feel as if it's being stolen from me. 01:14.690 --> 01:18.860 I hate this! I don't want to go back to those days! 01:36.760 --> 01:38.050 An Observation Log of My Fiancée Who Calls Herself a Villainess 02:50.040 --> 02:53.040 Chapter 9 02:50.040 --> 02:53.040 Observation Log of a Self-Proclaimed Villainess and a Doll. 02:54.130 --> 02:58.300 Who could have imagined that so many would die from this epidemic? 02:58.680 --> 03:01.300 Even though we know that luona leaf is effective against it, 03:01.760 --> 03:04.810 it isn't something we can grow at this point in time. 03:04.810 --> 03:07.390 Right now, there isn't anything we can do. 03:07.760 --> 03:09.960 Your Majesty, I beg of you! 03:10.360 --> 03:13.460 It's the only thing that can save my wife! 03:13.460 --> 03:15.760 Please share some of the luona leaf from the royal stores with me! 03:16.130 --> 03:17.970 Marquis Noches? 03:17.970 --> 03:20.790 His wife has contracted the disease. 03:20.790 --> 03:23.290 Lady Bertia wrote of it in one of her letters, didn't she? 03:23.590 --> 03:25.970 Oh, now that you mention it... 03:25.970 --> 03:30.660 Someone in his family has contracted the illness, yet he still approaches the king? 03:30.660 --> 03:33.020 I wonder if he means to bring the kingdom to ruin. 03:33.020 --> 03:35.110 Marquis, please understand. 03:35.110 --> 03:37.810 When so many of our people are suffering, 03:37.810 --> 03:40.790 I cannot give preferential treatment to my retainers. 03:40.790 --> 03:44.790 Please reconsider!

It's you. 04:28.740 --> 04:30.440 Father, you're doing the right thing. 04:30.780 --> 04:33.940 If the king were to show favoritism toward a vassal, 04:33.940 --> 04:36.070 it would breed discontent among the people. 04:36.300 --> 04:37.640 That's true. 04:37.640 --> 04:41.970 As the king of a nation, I believe I've made the right choice. 04:42.670 --> 04:43.930 However... 04:44.560 --> 04:46.990 I've lost the right to be his friend. 04:48.160 --> 04:50.530 Being correct as the king... 04:50.940 --> 04:53.580 Could anything be more important than that? 05:02.120 --> 05:03.560 Mother... 05:05.230 --> 05:07.960 Marquis Noches. Miss Bertia. 05:08.620 --> 05:10.160 Your Highness. 05:10.160 --> 05:12.170 My deepest sympathies. 05:12.440 --> 05:15.660 If you would permit it, I am ready to be of use to you at any time. 05:15.660 --> 05:17.070 Please, tell me anything you may need. 05:20.440 --> 05:24.820 I have devoted everything to the royal family, and this is the result. 05:25.220 --> 05:26.690 Father? 05:27.700 --> 05:31.370 Bertia, you must become the queen, no matter what. 05:31.370 --> 05:35.830 That way, no matter what may happen, they will protect you above all else! 05:36.100 --> 05:38.460 To ensure that happens, I will... 05:45.110 --> 05:48.050 My legs have turned to doll's legs? 05:48.730 --> 05:52.970 Just now, that was the "future" we supposedly changed. 05:53.420 --> 05:58.130 The me that was there couldn't understand my father's anguish. 05:58.580 --> 06:05.020 She lost her mother, so I put on a sad face and offered indifferent words. 06:05.520 --> 06:10.150 Those scenes were also no more than images shown to me by the light spirit. 06:10.540 --> 06:14.740 But just as you don't realize you're in a dream when you're dreaming, 06:14.740 --> 06:19.200 the current me overlaps with the me from the future that could have been. 06:19.940 --> 06:23.500 I hate this. That isn't me. 06:23.500 --> 06:27.560 My warmth... the emotions I finally obtained... 06:27.560 --> 06:28.720 Bertia... 06:29.310 --> 06:30.940 Please don't take them away from me. 06:34.490 --> 06:37.040 What do you think, Lady Bertia? 06:37.040 --> 06:39.300 You look quite sweet and lovely. 06:40.380 --> 06:42.010 I don't like it. 06:42.450 --> 06:47.060 Are you trying to make His Highness's and my debut into society fail? 06:47.060 --> 06:49.850 I can't be seen in front of everyone like this! 06:50.950 --> 06:52.780 What's wrong, Bertia? 06:52.780 --> 06:53.990 Father! 06:54.350 --> 06:58.960 That maid is just awful!

That's all. 07:27.250 --> 07:31.130 Since his wife died, the marquis has become a different person. 07:31.130 --> 07:33.930 Miss Bertia is the only one he shows any affection. 07:33.930 --> 07:38.070 I heard that she grows more arrogant by the day, but... 07:38.300 --> 07:43.070 Never mind all that. I'm just so anxious about our upcoming social debut. 07:43.070 --> 07:46.790 But I am looking forward to you escorting me, Your Highness! 07:47.070 --> 07:48.350 Are you? 07:48.350 --> 07:52.720 Miss Bertia, you need not worry about a thing. Just leave everything to me. 07:52.720 --> 07:54.850 Then I'll do just that! 07:54.850 --> 07:56.870 Well then. I will see you some other time. 07:56.870 --> 07:57.670 Of course! 07:58.900 --> 08:03.120 For the moment, she's submissive to me, 08:03.120 --> 08:05.770 so as long as she doesn't cause any major issues... 08:05.770 --> 08:08.290 And it would be difficult to break off the engagement anyway. 08:08.750 --> 08:09.940 There's nothing to be done. 08:11.280 --> 08:14.520 Lately, it seems like the light is always dim. 08:15.230 --> 08:17.030 The weather seems fair and clear today. 08:24.040 --> 08:25.140 It does. 08:31.720 --> 08:33.540 I'm sorry. 08:33.870 --> 08:36.870 I'm sorry! I'm sorry! 08:37.410 --> 08:41.280 But I promise you'll be able to be happy! 08:44.880 --> 08:47.890 Your Highness, I believe it's time. 08:47.890 --> 08:48.890 Yes. 08:50.060 --> 08:52.640 Zeno, did you prepare the bouquet? 08:52.640 --> 08:53.990 With no difficulties at all. 08:56.130 --> 08:59.190 I'll likely be bored if I go, 08:59.190 --> 09:03.650 but if I skip my fiancée's tea party, it will only create problems later. 09:03.650 --> 09:04.410 Wait! 09:13.760 --> 09:16.040 Please fly a little slower for me! 09:22.310 --> 09:25.680 Honestly. You shouldn't fly too far away from me. 09:26.440 --> 09:28.160 That's unusual. 09:28.160 --> 09:31.470 Instead of keeping the bird in a cage, she's letting it fly free. 09:32.120 --> 09:34.220 Are you a new student? 09:34.220 --> 09:35.320 What? 09:35.320 --> 09:37.540 You mean me, don't you? 09:37.540 --> 09:38.360 Y-Yes! 09:38.670 --> 09:40.690 You're not going to a tea party? 09:40.690 --> 09:45.780 I've come here from the countryside, so I don't really know anyone. 09:45.780 --> 09:49.620 That's why Pii-chan and I are exploring the school together. 09:49.890 --> 09:53.120 Pii-chan? Is that the bird's name? 09:53.120 --> 09:54.050 Zeno. 09:54.050 --> 09:55.130 Of course. 09:57.090 --> 10:00.630 Then, allow me to celebrate you. 10:00.860 --> 10:02.550 Congratulations on your enrollment. 10:02.940 --> 10:05.270 Th-Thank you. 10:14.700 --> 10:18.630 For Your Highness to show an interest in someone is quite unusual. 10:18.630 --> 10:19.530 Is it? 10:20.030 --> 10:23.660 I simply found the bird and the frolicking young lady unusual. 10:24.210 --> 10:27.740 But I suppose this is one type of interest. 10:31.170 --> 10:34.080 This is a good place to pause. Shall we take a break? 10:34.080 --> 10:38.010 In that case, what do you think of looking at the roses in the courtyard? 10:38.280 --> 10:41.390 I've heard that the academy director's wife likes them. 10:43.640 --> 10:46.660 I've never given any thought to my preferences regarding flowers. 10:47.300 --> 10:51.310 The gardeners try to make beautiful flowers bloom and look after everything, 10:51.310 --> 10:53.600 so it's only logical that they create magnificent gardens. 10:54.310 --> 10:57.320 It's no more than the expected result. 10:58.020 --> 11:02.340 Why is everyone always so grateful when they observe the flowers? 11:10.290 --> 11:13.450 You there. You shouldn't sleep here. 11:14.750 --> 11:16.710 Just a little longer. 11:19.450 --> 11:20.350 Huh? 11:21.410 --> 11:23.040 What?! 11:23.280 --> 11:25.180 It seems you're awake. 11:25.180 --> 11:28.220 A lady shouldn't show her defenseless sleeping face, you know? 11:28.800 --> 11:32.670 It was warm and felt so nice I couldn't help nodding off. 11:32.670 --> 11:35.810 I'm terribly sorry for such a disgraceful display! 11:35.810 --> 11:39.070 Not at all. Thanks to you, I was able to see something unusual. 11:39.430 --> 11:40.280 What? 11:40.280 --> 11:43.080 A young lady scrambling backward at full strength. 11:43.730 --> 11:45.890 Did you come to see the roses, too? 11:45.890 --> 11:50.450 Yes! I finished going all the way around and paused to rest under the tree. 11:50.850 --> 11:52.610 What's your name? 11:52.860 --> 11:57.160 My name is Heronia. Heronia Inderon. 11:57.450 --> 12:02.250 I am Cecil Glo Alphasta. It's a pleasure, Miss Heronia. 12:02.250 --> 12:06.430 Lord Cecil? That's the same name as the crown prince! 12:08.500 --> 12:12.060 Actually, isn't that the crown prince's full name? 12:12.060 --> 12:16.450 Yes, that's who I am. I gave a speech at the entrance ceremony, didn't I? 12:16.900 --> 12:19.970 Please forgive my disrespectful behavior! 12:19.230 --> 12:20.440 Oh, she did it again. 12:20.440 --> 12:24.160 At the entrance ceremony I was sitting all the way at the back, 12:24.160 --> 12:27.710 so while I did hear your voice, I wasn't able to see your face. 12:28.620 --> 12:31.300 As long as you remember it now, I don't mind at all. 12:31.300 --> 12:32.860 But, let's see. 12:34.150 --> 12:38.560 As an apology, will you go around the garden one more time? 12:38.560 --> 12:39.460 What? 12:39.770 --> 12:44.210 I came to see the roses,but it's more fun if there's two of us, isn't it? 12:45.770 --> 12:48.720 If you'll have me, I'd love to! 12:49.520 --> 12:52.650 I have nothing else to do here on campus anyway. 12:52.650 --> 12:54.920 And every day here is so boring. 13:00.360 --> 13:01.230 The two of them are locked in! 13:01.220 --> 13:06.480 A country lady with a bird for a friend who sleeps where anyone could see her. 13:07.150 --> 13:11.460 As a temporary plaything, she's not so bad at all. 13:15.950 --> 13:18.200 Oh, I'm so sorry! 13:18.200 --> 13:20.720 Did your foot get caught on something? 13:22.130 --> 13:24.870 L-Lady Bertia... 13:26.110 --> 13:30.960 Up until now, the marquis's house has been useful, so I've let her be... 13:31.350 --> 13:36.480 but if she plans on breaking my new toy, I suppose I'll have to get rid of her. 13:37.390 --> 13:43.600 You are someone who would know all about Marquis Noches's dealings, aren't you? 13:44.890 --> 13:47.150 I'm right, aren't I, Courtgain? 13:47.710 --> 13:50.480 I don't know anything at all. 13:50.720 --> 13:52.420 Your Highness may be making too much of things. 13:52.980 --> 13:55.950 If you have nothing else to discuss, I will take my leave. 13:57.690 --> 14:00.170 I want to save you, Courtgain. 14:01.690 --> 14:04.520 You're being threatened into helping against your will, haven't you? 14:05.290 --> 14:09.890 If not, someone as upright and decent as you would never assist in any dishonesty. 14:10.730 --> 14:14.500 You've been suffering because of that this whole time, haven't you? 14:16.590 --> 14:17.670 I... 14:24.830 --> 14:27.490 Thank you for coming, Miss Heronia. 14:27.920 --> 14:30.660 How does the evening find you, Prince Cecil? 14:30.660 --> 14:33.740 While I wasn't looking, you've become a splendid young noblewoman. 14:33.740 --> 14:34.660 What? 14:34.660 --> 14:38.450 When we first met, you were running around chasing after a bird. 14:38.730 --> 14:42.320 And the next time I saw you, you were napping under a tree in the courtyard. 14:42.320 --> 14:44.950 That was so long ago! Please forget all of that! 14:47.790 --> 14:51.660 And since that's who you are, I'd like to send you a dress. 14:51.660 --> 14:52.420 What? 14:53.010 --> 14:55.230 At tomorrow's graduation party, 14:55.230 --> 14:59.170 will you wear that dress and stand beside me? 15:11.460 --> 15:14.390 But Your Highness has Lady Bertia. 15:15.590 --> 15:20.990 No, I can't change this emotion I'm feeling. 15:20.990 --> 15:24.080 Even if it puts me at odds with Lady Bertia... 15:25.020 --> 15:26.160 I... 15:27.630 --> 15:30.110 Prince Cecil, I love you! 15:30.920 --> 15:32.500 I love you so much! 15:38.690 --> 15:45.220 Up until now, I felt an interest, a slight affection for you. 15:45.950 --> 15:51.530 But this sensation, something feverishly hot is welling up in my chest... 15:52.240 --> 15:56.640 Is this what is commonly referred to as "love"? 15:57.490 --> 16:02.500 Whatever this emotion may be, you are the toy that finally captured my interest. 16:03.120 --> 16:06.570 Please don't disappoint me. 16:17.840 --> 16:24.020 On this occasion, I transfer all my rights to next year's student council president! 16:28.880 --> 16:30.160 Now, then. 16:30.160 --> 16:34.560 Everyone, take heart.
