02x06 - Fine Day for Vistors

[bunniefuu]

The Great Tree Village,
where we currently live…

And Villages One, Two, and Three,

all lie within a forest known
as the Forest of Death.

When I first heard the name,
I thought it was a bit over the top.

Why would it have such a terrifying name?

Well, because this forest
has almost no birds.

Savage monsters and magical beasts,

especially spiders known as Demon Spiders,

reign as the natural enemies of birds,

which is probably why
it came to be marked on maps

as a fearsome forest
with no birdsong at all.

Now, as for why I'm
bringing all this up...

It's because right in front of me,
these winged visitors

have been wrapped up by Zabuton's children

and thoroughly taken down
by Kuro's children.

Some are angels I don't recognize,

and some others are women
with wings for arms…

Could they be harpies?

Mayor!

There appear to be
no others concealed nearby.

I see.

But why are they
tied up so tightly over there?

They look like angels. Do you know them?

Yes, actually…

It all started a while ago.

The new villages
made our patrol area bigger,

and we lacked aerial guards.

It's too huge!

So Gran Maria went
to the angel settlement to look for help.

Hiya!

So, the angel chief's
daughter heard about it

and stormed in with her people?

Yes.

Why?

Excuse me!

How long do you plan
to leave us like this?!

Is that the chief's daughter?

Yes.

ANGEL CLAN - NEXT CLAN LEADER KIABIT

ANGEL CLAN - NEXT CLAN LEADER KIABIT
Her name is Kiabit.

To subject angels to such treatment without warning is the utmost disrespect!

To subject angels to such treatment
without warning is the utmost disrespect!

Is this how you treat visitors?!

Well, if you'd come here as normal guests,

we would've been happy to welcome you…

Charge in!

But when a huge group storms in like that,

it's only natural
they'd be treated as enemies.

We didn't come here with hostile intent…

Then why did you…?

To protect the pride of the angel race!

An angel should be noble,
revered by the people,

yet I hear one of our own is living
in utter disgrace in this village!

Is that so?

W-Well…

What one considers disgrace
can vary from person to person…

What one considers disgrace can vary from person to person…
DAILY LIFE

DAILY LIFE

And worse, she even broke our tradition!

It is a blasphemy
I cannot possibly forgive!

Blasphemy? Don't tell me
angels aren't allowed to drink?

That's not it!

She skipped the Trial of Taking a Husband!

Hold on a moment.

I get the feeling
there's been a misunderstanding.

To put it simply,

we angels are mostly an all-female race.

So, in order to continue our bloodline,

we have to take husbands from other races.

Okay...?

That said, we cannot just pick anyone.

In order to choose a worthy man,

it is angel custom to
impose a strict trial.

Or so she claims.

And how does that…?
- Hello??

She thinks Lady Tia and all of us

are living with a man
while ignoring that trial.

That's why she got angry and attacked us?

Couldn't you just explain the situation?

I doubt she would believe us.
- Hey! Cut this out already!

The others may be persuaded,
but she is terribly stubborn.

In that case…

As I said before,

this village has every reason
to see you as enemies.

Why am I the only one left like this?

Having captured you,

we're free to treat you however we like.

That is because you are enemies.

However, if you reflect on your actions,

and become Gran Maria's subordinates,

I'll be generous and let you off.

We pledge our loyalty to Lady Gran Maria!

Wait!

Why are you switching sides so easily?!

Now then, angels.

What will you do?

Why is this happening?

They are probably reluctant
to defy the chief's daughter.

She may be like that,
but she's next in line.

The harpies don't mind who they serve,
as long as they can serve the angels.

But if these angels betray Kiabit,

They may get out now,
but they'll suffer later.

I understand. In that case…

Invading this village
is an unforgivable crime.

So Kiabit, the ringleader,

will be given ten punishments.

Even one is horribly painful.

Ten punishments would be…

Well, absolutely tragic!

But…

For every one of you who apologizes,

I'll take one punishment off the list.

So? You do want to save her, don't you?!

We apologize.

You too?!

Kiabit's entourage folded that easily…?

They just needed an excuse
that made it okay for them to apologize.

If it means protecting Lady Kiabit…

Oh, don't give me that!

Since they apologized,

we'll welcome them as guests.

You're the only one left.
What will you do?

Why not give up already?

As if I'd ever apologize!

So this is how you
tricked Tia and the others!

She really is stubborn.

There's no other choice, Mayor.

Will you undergo the angel trial?

What?!

It's the only way to convince her.

You finally came to your senses!

A man like him could never—.

Once you pass the trial,
she'll have no choice but to accept it.

They won't ask me to fly
or defeat some monster, right?

It's close to that,

but I'm sure you'll be fine.

Seriously…?

So, about this trial…

Try not to faint
when you hear how difficult it is.

The angel trial has five stages!

I immediately thought, “What a hassle.”

And what are they?

First, a little warm-up.

The first trial is…

"Wealth"!

You must donate


That's a lot, right?

Generally speaking, yes.

Could I offer goods instead of gold coins?

I don't mind.

Though I doubt this village
has anything worth that much.

Wait, is this a Gorgo stone?

I just brought it
from a nearby storehouse.

Oh, this one's shiny and pretty, isn't it?

WORTH 1,000 GOLD GORGO STONE

EXPENSIVE

I'll let you pass with just this one.

Oh, really?

Then that clears the first stage.

The second trial is "Intelligence"!

We take turns removing twenty stones.

Whoever takes the last one loses.

You may take
one to three stones at a time.

And you must take stones on your turn.

And you must take stones on your turn.
LOSE / WIN

And you must take stones on your turn.

Do you understand?

Yes.

You seem rather confused.

May I go first?

Suit yourself.

One more time!

This time, we'll add one more stone…

Then I'll go second.

Why?

Apparently,

this game was passed down
among the angels.

But if I always make
our combined total four,

then with twenty stones, I
win by taking three first.

then with twenty stones, I win by taking three first.
DO NOT TAKE

DO NOT TAKE

TAKE

I see.

I'd played a similar game before,

so I already knew the trick.

Once you know the logic,

you can't lose
if you choose the turn order.

Again!

Next trial, please.

The third trial is "combat"!

Now the real challenge begins!

Oh? Are you bad at fighting?

To be honest, I have zero confidence.

It's easy.

Just beat the opponent I name.

The first two worked out somehow,
but this one sounds hopeless.

What now…?

Wait… seriously?

Who's the opponent?

Prepare yourself and be amazed.

Your target is the angels' natural enemy,

the infamous Vampire Princess, Rurushi Ru!

What's wrong? Too stunned to speak?

She's a wanted fugitive,

so you may not even find her.

For both our sakes,
you should give up now...

Here she is.

Hello.

What? A guest?

I'm supposed
to challenge you to something.

What does that mean?

For now… look that way!

That way?

I won.

The fourth trial!

"Negotiation skills"!

You must face
Mount Gulgurant's unreachable king!

The Gate Dragon!

Oh, Mayor. Are you busy?

Yes, a bit tied up right now.

I'll come back later.

I brought some unusual meat today.

Sorry, what was that
about the Gate Dragon?

Are you all right?

Last one! The fifth trial!

We've had wealth, intelligence,
strength, and negotiation…

So what's last?

"Luck."

That suddenly feels kind of half-hearted.

Wings are heads,
and the sword and shield are tails.

Toss this medal.
If it lands on heads, you win.

Got it. I'll give it a try.

There's nothing I can do about this one.

I'll just have to pray…

Heads!

Too bad! It was tails!

You failed the trial.

Come on, that's not fair.

It just happened to hit my hand
and bounce back!

Bad luck for you!

Right, Tia?!

With that, the trial is complete.

That's cheating!

Would you like to be
embedded in the floor too?

I'll pass.

I knew seeing me
would only make her more stubborn,

so I kept myself out of sight.

That's why we hadn't seen you.

I can't get it out…

And it's such an important medal…

Would you like some help?

There's a reason
she is so fixated on the trial.

Her mother,

eased the trial to marry
her lower-status father…

And Kiabit has been mocked for it
behind her back ever since.

So that's what happened.

Hey…

I'm sorry. I got carried away.

Please forgive me.

I understand.

We'll welcome you as a guest.

And with that,
the commotion came to an end.

Kiabit and the others

ended up staying
in Village One for a while.

Kiabit is surprisingly calm
most of the time,

and she's been advising us
on the village's defenses.

Cheers.

Once she drinks, she gets pretty lively…

She looks happy, so it's fine.

Now, please report to your posts.

Yes, ma'am!

With the harpies helping us,

aerial patrols have become much easier.

Yes.

But that is not the only result we gained.

The Mayor could have simply handed us over

to Kiabit without protecting us.

Yet he chose not to.

You're right.

And as a bonus,

even we have received the angels' approval

as the Mayor's partners.

That's true.

It is truly an honor.

Dragons often come flying to this village.

Are there actually more dragons
in this world than I thought…?

Please!

You have to hide me!

Listen, Sister.

It's been terrible.

I've been at my absolute limit
for ages now!

The strange dragon was
Hakuren's younger brother.

Well, I can't say it never happens.

Everyone always brushes me off like that,

but I'm living in fear
for my life every single day!

So even dragons can fear for their lives…

Is some kind of catastrophe
about to happen?

She's here.

Forgive my late introduction.

I am Quon,

I am Quon,
DOMAIM'S FIANCÉE QUON

DOMAIM'S FIANCÉE QUON

DOMAIM'S FIANCÉE QUON
Lord Domaim's fiancée.

DOMAIM'S FIANCÉE QUON

Nice to meet you. I'm Hiraku, the Mayor.

I was expecting someone terrifying,

but she doesn't seem
like an enemy, at least.

So why is he shaking like that?

What is wrong, Lord Domaim?

Are you feeling tense?

Lord Domaim.

Answer.

Y-Yes!

How strange.

You're happy to see me, aren't you?

Answer.
- Very happy!

Okay, she's scary.

Sorry about that.

My brother seems to be sick.

Maybe food poisoning?

What was that?

Ow, ow! My stomach!

I drank too much! Ow, ow!

How weak.

Quon, don't pick on my brother.

Lady Hakuren.

I am not picking on him.

If anything,
Lord Domaim is the one picking on me.

Really?

He promised to go out with me,

but he keeps standing me up.

And lately, whenever I visit,
he pretends he isn't home.

No matter where he runs,
or where he hides,

I could never lose track of him.

Wait…

Do you have another woman?

Do you not want to marry me?

Wait, wait!

I need to have a word
with Domaim over there.

Why not speak here?

It's a man-to-man talk.

It's okay.

I've got this.

All right.

Don't run! How many times
have you tried to escape?!

And have you ever once succeeded?

I only met Quon moments ago,

but she has a seriously dangerous vibe!

You are not escaping that!

Do you have any conditions?

I mean, about marrying her.

No, I mean…
Marriage itself is the problem.

Give up! Meeting her was your bad luck.

How is that fair?!

She was there the moment I was born!

Hang in there!

Then it's fate! Accept it!

Listen.

It's too early to despair.

Think of conditions that
would make you willing to marry her.

What do you mean?

Surely there are things
you want her to change.

If she works on those,
maybe you could feel better about this.

No way!

She would never listen to me.

Have you ever told her any of that?

No.

Then don't hold back.

Stop running. Face her.

But… Saying it to her face is…

In that case...

Write it!

Write down every little thing!

The more you write,
the more she'll have to change!

No need to be polite.

Write until you can think,
“I could marry her like this!”

Okay.

What did Lord Domaim say?

Before that, Quon…

Do you truly want to marry Domaim?

Of course.

Even if hardships await you?

That goes without saying.

I see.

The truth is,

he is writing a letter now.

About what he wants from his future wife.

His future wife…

If Lord Domaim wishes for it,
I must make it all come true.

I figured you'd say that.

But that's not enough.

I'm not trying to make
one of you obey the other.

If you're going to be married,

you should both respect
how the other feels.

How the other feels?

So you should write down
what you want too.

Things you want Domaim to do,
or things you want him to fix.

He's writing his list,
so you can write yours.

That's only fair, right?

Understood.

I'll borrow a room.

I'd be embarrassed
if anyone but Lord Domaim read it.

When she's like that,
she seems pretty normal.

Mayor.

Dragon women are no joke.

Brace yourself.

What was that?

Nothing! Absolutely nothing!

So nothing it's shocking!

I want us to go out together.

I want him to eat my homemade lunches.

I'd like to hold hands once in a while.

To be honest, that scares me.

These are… my wishes.

P-P-P-Please… read them.

That's one step forward.

After that,

they kept exchanging letters.

What do you mean, scary?

That. That's what's scary.

By the time they left,

they were leaving together.

You took the long way around, huh?

Maybe it took some time,

but it gave them time to think it through.

You seemed very invested
in helping little Domaim.

If left alone, they'd chase
each other as dragons.

If it were a stranger's problem, fine.

But this is family.

I could hardly ignore it.

Then perhaps I should write you
a letter as well.

What are your demands?

You'll have to read it to find out.

Please go easy on me.
