01x05 - His Butler, Gaining Admittance

Post by bunniefuu »

The school is

tightly protected by its own rules

and it's impossible to investigate.

The students are basically prisoners.

Anyway, I finally made it

into the "P4 group" or whatever.

So I'll try to get information

on Derrick myself.

I also have a friend in the Purple House.

His name is Derrick Arden.

Derrick you said?

Anyway,

his transfer was

decided by the headmaster.

The headmaster's judgement

is always right.

And

The headmaster's decisions are absolute.

It's not like Arden

was the only one who moved.

-What are their names?

-I don't know!

It was the headmaster's decision.

I see

Even Edward is saying that

So, how are you going to

meet up with Master Derrick?

If you get caught,

it will become a big problem.

That's easy. If I can't get inside,

we'll have him come out!

We finally get to meet, Derrick Arden.

All of you, evacuate now!

Hurry!

Find Derrick

and the other students, Sebastian.

-They're coming out.

-He's not here yet.

What's going on? Hurry up and come out!

Room leaders, take roll call

and report to the prefect!

Yes!

-Still?

-Not yet.

We have no choice.

Sebastian, go and rescue them

One moment, please.

As I thought

I don't detect any souls

within the Purple House.

What?

From this distance,

I am able to find living human beings

by detecting their souls.

However, I do not detect

any humans in there anymore.

So everyone

is out of the building already?

Yes.

None of the five students who are

cooped up in the Purple House are here.

Which means

Derrick was never

in the Purple House to begin with?

ORIGINAL WORK BY YANA TOBOSO

Violet!

Is everyone safe?

Everyone's here.

-Things aren't that simple anymore.

-Yes.

As we thought, the P4 are hiding something

about Master Derrick.

If Derrick isn't here,

there's no point in prolonging this.

-Put out the fire.

-Yes.

Everyone in the Green House,

hurry and bring water!

Blue House!

Bring water before the other dorms!

Red House! Don't fall behind!

Call the teachers!

Everyone!

I have water.

Mr. Michaelis!

Hey, my elephant!

Quickly put out the fire

before it spreads.

Good job!

All right, Green House! Follow me!

-Let's go, Blue House!

-Roger!

Don't enter the Purple House!

However

This is not the time

to be saying that, you fool!

You're the leader

of the Purple House, aren't you?

Worthless pride cannot save your people!

If you can't protect your people,

you're no leader!

You b*stard!

Who do you think you're talking to!

Cheslock!

It's fine. Let's accept their help.

Okay

Cover your mouth with a cloth.

Don't breathe in the smoke.

Don't open up doors unnecessarily.

It'll reignite the fire.

Come this way, if you're injured!

You guys Just you wait

I will pay you back, I swear!

Come on, Purple House! Pick up the pace!

Derrick and the other students

have disappeared

and the P4 are tight-lipped

The only option left

is to get in contact with the headmaster.

But the only ones who can meet

the headmaster at the midnight tea party

are the P4 and their f*gs.

Should I just k*ll Clayton,

who is a prefect's f*g,

and take his place? No, no

Thank goodness yesterday's fire

was put out quickly.

I heard a rumor that it was arson.

How scary.

I wonder if the cricket tournament

on June 4th will be canceled?

It's a time-honored

Weston College tournament.

They'll do it for sure.

Not that the Blue House

has any chance of winning.

They say the headmaster

will be at the tournament too.

We have to go all out and root for them.

What? The headmaster

is coming to the tournament?

And even if the Blue House

is last place every year,

we all have a chance to be invited

to the midnight tea party.

W Wait a second!

Is that true?

Huh? That the Blue House

is last place every year?

No, after that.

Despite being very busy,

I heard the headmaster

comes to the tournament without fail.

And every year, one student who

played in the tournament

is invited to the midnight tea party.

I found a way that I can attend!

Do you have to be the top scorer

of the winning dorm or something?

The thing is,

the reason is different each year.

Some years,

it's the top scorer of the winning dorm.

At times, a player from the lowest

ranking dorm is recognized for fair play.

The headmaster chooses

the one whose playing style is the most

befitting of a gentleman that year.

What the heck?

Getting chosen is way harder

than simply winning!

For example, the person who was

invited two years ago,

put himself in harm's way

to protect a spectator

who was about to get hit by a ball.

Clayton!

So, to the headmaster,

his actions were the most

befitting of a gentleman?

But the cricket team has 11 players,

so it's hard to even

become a representative of your dorm.

First-years are out of the question.

I hate to admit it,

but I am not good at sports.

I can't expect to be chosen.

What shall I do

Phantomhive.

I need to talk to you.

Congratulations!

You've been chosen as a player for

the dormitory competition on June 4th.

What? Is that true?

Yes.

I'm so honored! But why me?

Our dormitory

is unlike other dormitories

and their muscle-brains.

We specialize in strategizing.

You don't have the physique,

but you have brains and guts

that exposed Maurice Cole's dishonesty.

You will surely be useful to the team.

That is what one person said

as he strongly recommended you.

-What?

-It was Mr. Michaelis.

Really? He said that?

Good job, Sebastian.

I don't want to praise you,

but that was an amazing assist.

-You'd better thank him.

-Yes! I will go now!

There are people around

I guess I have no choice.

Mr. Michaelis!

Thank you for recommending me

to be on the team.

Now, now, Phantomhive. You must not run.

I'm sorry.

I just couldn't wait to say thank you.

You don't have to thank me.

I am sure that you will play wonderfully.

Yes! Now I have to get ready

in time for the tournament.

If you'd like, I can help you.

-Really?

-Of course.

But only after I check

that you have done your homework.

I am simply a teacher, after all.

Winning, losing, individual performance,

gentlemanlike play

Which of those will be prioritized

is up to the headmaster.

With such unclear criteria,

it'll be difficult to be chosen

among all the students.

However

If I score points

and bring my dorm victory,

while also creating a tear-jerking story,

it'll be perfect!

I will do anything

to win my ticket

to the midnight tea party.

I can't wait for June 4th to come around.

The opening event

is as lively as I had heard it would be.

Please excuse the interruption.

Ladies and gentlemen,

we welcome you to the opening ceremony

of the time-honored

June 4th cricket tournament.

We are so happy to be able to

hold this tournament

this year, as always.

We hope you fully enjoy

the opening event today.

Well then

All dorms, assemble your players here!

-What is this?

-Is the ground rumbling?

Here they come!

No other dorm can match their

outstanding physical ability and teamwork.

The undisputed champions,

"Top of the World."

Green Lion dormitory!

You look so cool, my brother!

Look!

Last year's runners-up who cornered

the Green House until the last minute!

They mesmerize spectators

with their elegant play

The garden of marvelous skill,

"Brilliant Eden."

Scarlet Fox dormitory!

Can this be?

The ones who throw their opponents

into confusion

with their unpredictable trick play

The swarming phantoms, "Ghost Legion."

Violet Wolf dormitory!

They're so unpredictable,

they don't even enter through the door.

Those birds must be from that dorm

They lack physical ability,

but they aim for victory

with their strategic playmaking.

The attack of the cornered mice,

"God Only Knows." Sapphire Owl dormitory!

How lackluster

As expected of the last place players.

Both our entrance

and the audience's reaction are so dull.

Ciel, you're so cute!

Good luck!

Light the flame of Saint George!

We, the players

In accordance with

Weston College's tradition

Promise to be fair

And fight until the end.

I now declare the start

of the 1889 cricket tournament

between dormitories!

Tomorrow's tournament will

no doubt become very intense.

So please enjoy tonight's opening event

to your heart's content.

Vice headmaster!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry

We can't make it to the finals

unless we eat! So eat up!

Yes, sir!

That's wonderful!

What a careless bunch.

We will have a meeting

to perfect our plan.

-We don't have a moment to waste!

-Roger!

Don't be so boring.

Why don't you have some fun too?

My sister

Have some fun!

Look at you being all bossy.

You're never like that at home.

I can't believe the boy who was always

playing house with me, is now a prefect.

Hey, Sis!

Please stop saying unnecessary things

and just go over there!

Hey, what do you mean by "unnecessary"?

What do you mean?!

Thank you for taking care of our brother.

Hey, where is Master Edgar?

This is exactly what Violet was drawing.

Come on, it's crooked.

How intimidating

Oh, you must be Phantomhive.

In my younger brother's letters,

he called you a very capable first-year.

Thank you very much.

Oh, he's pretty cute!

He's a bit small,

but he has good looks,

brains, and social standing.

-Indeed.

-Um

What do you think about

marrying our little sister?

What?

Oh, stop it!

What are you blushing for?

That's not very ladylike, Adela.

No, um

Ciel?

Nice to meet you, everyone.

I am Elizabeth, Ciel's fiancée.

Ciel! How dare you?!

You know you have Lizzie!

Hey wait

-How dare you?!

-Of course, he already has one.

-All good catches are taken.

-Brother!

Stop it!

Brother?

The Blue House is as noisy as always.

Ciel, you look good in that weird hat!

Oh, they must be the infamous

Who knew you would be

chosen as a representative.

Of course!

Kadar is really good at playing cricket.

Cricket became very popular in India too,

after the British introduced it.

I even made my own team

in the royal palace.

Oh, Master Edgar!

When are you going to escort me?

Maybe when you stop stepping on my feet?

You're so mean!

How could you say that to a lady, Edgar?

Did you forget everything

that I taught you, my nephew?

The Viscount of Druitt!

Uncle Aleister!

Non! Don't call me "uncle."

I knew Redmond looked familiar!

It was him!

This school brings back memories!

It feels like just yesterday,

that I was a fresh-faced youth,

like a rose coated in morning dew!

And who knew he was an alumnus!

I don't like those kinds of shallow men!

My goodness

That seems like

a bunch of troublesome characters.

I'd better not get too close.

Hey, you lewd butler.

What are you doing here?

Oh my

Marchioness of Midford,

how did you catch me?

What is up with this getup?

Real teachers don't look this indecent!

Well, whatever.

The fact that you are here must mean

Ciel's enrollment is

It is exactly what you are thinking,

Your Ladyship.

Oh?

You're Sebas

Oh, who is that?

You know my mother, Mr. Michaelis?

What are you two talking about? He is

It's nice to see you both again.

Oh! I had no clue!

Me neither!

I thought you knew

but were just keeping quiet!

Why would I pay attention to anyone else

when Lizzie is around?

Don't say that like it's common sense!

Is tomorrow's game part of your job?

It's not irrelevant,

but you don't need to hold back.

Then I won't.

I will be rooting for you a lot, okay?

You have to win, okay?

The Blue House is

last place every year! They can't win!

Actually, you never know.

While I went to this school,

the Blue House won one time.

Although, it was their one and only time

Are you perhaps talking about

the "Miracle of Sapphires"?

Oh, I am Phantomhive's best friend.

-My name is McMillan.

-"Best friend"?

Please tell me more about that story,

Marquess of Midford!

Very well.

That was back when I was a prefect's f*g

in the Green House, just like Ed is now.

Today was the last straw!

Please, calm down!

How can I calm down, Midford?

What kind of prefect skips out

on preparations for June 4th!

First of all, that guy

Hey, wake up, Mole.

I only needed three more minutes

to finish this book.

Prefects are not allowed onto the grass

just to take naps on it!

Don't get so angry, Diedrich.

And plus, my name isn't "Mole."

It's Vincent Phantomhive.
