00:00:04As my husband, I've lost count of how many times Sassi has paraded his ally right in front of me.
00:00:11Of course, tonight is an exception.
00:00:15He thinks I'm visiting relatives in the country.
00:00:18He hasn't the faintest idea.
00:00:21Little does he know, this is where my revenge begins.
00:00:26Parasites.
00:00:31Since everyone's wearing a mask, no one knows who's who.
00:00:42So if you can mess about right in front of me,
00:00:48why shouldn't I do the same?
00:00:57That woman's back. Looks awfully familiar.
00:01:05Stay the night with me.
00:01:07What do you say?
00:01:08I'm just an ally, my lady.
00:01:09You're all.
00:01:11Why let rank spoil the fun?
00:01:16A noblewoman luring to be with these kind of trash.
00:01:19Are you quite sure you can handle the consequences?
00:01:22Oh, boy.
00:01:23Doざ.
00:01:38Oh, boy.
00:01:42Oh, boy.
00:01:45Oh, boy.
00:01:47Oh, boy.
00:01:47Oh, boy.
00:01:50Don't stop.
00:01:51Oh, boy.
00:01:51I'm actually pregnant.
00:01:56That man certainly knew how to put on a show.
00:02:00As long as Scar believes this child is his,
00:02:02everything my grandfather left me will eventually be mine again.
00:02:06My lady, I've come to change your bedding and your rag.
00:02:10Why now, of all times?
00:02:12Just a moment!
00:02:15Scar hasn't touched me in six months.
00:02:17Before I announce the pregnancy, I need him to sleep with me one more time.
00:02:21Melris! The carriage is waiting!
00:02:24If we're late for the victory banquet, the blame falls on you!
00:02:31You're getting completely out of hand.
00:02:33What the devil are you doing in here?
00:02:37Sneaking around, what are you up to?
00:02:41Nothing.
00:02:42Why are your hands behind your back?
00:02:44You're standing on it.
00:02:46Ugh!
00:02:47Throwing your filthy rags on the floor like this?
00:02:50Disgusting!
00:02:54Forgive me, my lord.
00:02:55I was just about to tidy the room and change her ladyship's rags.
00:02:58Wait outside.
00:02:59I'll get dressed and be right out.
00:03:01Hurry it up.
00:03:12Feed me another one.
00:03:19My lord.
00:03:20I prefer the curtains drawn.
00:03:23If you cared so much about appearances, you shouldn't have brought her into the carriage.
00:03:28Tonight is a banquet hosted by his majesty himself for my cousin, Erik.
00:03:32If you hadn't married me, a merchant's daughter like you would never set foot in the royal palace your entire
00:03:38life.
00:03:39Exactly.
00:03:40I'd defeat for a chance to go inside.
00:03:42You've no right to complain.
00:03:44If it weren't for my merchant fortune, you wouldn't even be able to afford this carriage.
00:03:48You'd have to go roll around in the dirt.
00:03:51I never want to hear you say that again.
00:03:53Don't forget.
00:03:54The deeds and shops your grandfather left behind all belong to me now.
00:04:01Let me help you cool off, my lord.
00:04:04Grandfather must have been blind to leave everything in his hands.
00:04:08Don't give me that look.
00:04:10As long as we play the happy couple, my cousin will think I'm a respectable man.
00:04:15And the northern ration contracts will stay in my hands.
00:04:34General.
00:04:35His majesty has sent word. The banquet is about to begin.
00:04:38The time of controlling the illusions is getting shorter.
00:04:42Still not found that woman?
00:04:43There were too many people that night. We're still screening them.
00:04:46After that night, the hallucination stopped for two whole days.
00:04:52And it was only with her.
00:04:54Keep digging.
00:04:59Be a good girl and wait in the carriage. I'll be back right after the banquet.
00:05:06My lady. After you.
00:05:11Is that Vatret Skur's wife? I heard she's a merchant's daughter.
00:05:16No wonder she lacks class.
00:05:18Look at you. Go and beg Lilith to swap dresses with you. Stop embarrassing me here.
00:05:27Count Horne. It's been too long. Looking as dashering as ever, I see.
00:05:39I'd rather be thrown out than beg her for anything.
00:05:44My apologies, my lady, but we cannot allow you inside dress like that.
00:05:48I know. That's why I need to borrow your sword for a moment.
00:05:51Please don't make a scene here, ma'am.
00:05:53I... I just...
00:05:56Use mine.
00:06:05It's the man from the masquerade!
00:06:09General, sir!
00:06:10The general? Soska's cousin is him?
00:06:13If you keep, my lady, you'll be late for the banquet.
00:06:18Thank you, general.
00:06:25Actually looks better than before.
00:06:29You flatter me, general. Just a quick fix.
00:06:32I'll see you inside.
00:06:41That woman. Why does she feel so familiar?
00:07:02Eric Hohenheim. The Empire will forever remember your triumphs in the North.
00:07:08My life for the Empire.
00:07:10He looks as though he's in pain.
00:07:13Rumor has it he'd defeat people just for fun since he's been back.
00:07:18You always take matters into your own hands.
00:07:20Stay away from me whilst I make my rounds tonight.
00:07:22I don't want people thinking I married a tailor's daughter.
00:07:29Perhaps he's not what the rumors say.
00:07:32A toast to you, general.
00:07:37It's getting worse.
00:07:40No. I need to find Edward. See if they've brought any spare prisoners.
00:07:47Cousin! The party's just starting. What's the rush?
00:07:51What is it?
00:07:52Oh, nothing much.
00:07:53Just notice the requisition orders for the border rations have paused lately.
00:07:57The North is secure, sure, but our garrisons out there eat through supplies fast.
00:08:01We can't let the transport stop.
00:08:02To save the front line some coin, I've been keeping prices rock bottom for years.
00:08:07I hardly make a dime.
00:08:12So regarding the rations contract.
00:08:19Shut up!
00:08:21Cousin?
00:08:22Rations were always tight whilst I was on the front.
00:08:25We only secured the area a month ago.
00:08:27Yet when I dressed as an ally and slipped into your estate, your little masquerade was quite the lavish affair.
00:08:32General!
00:08:34I believe you are mistaken.
00:08:37The heavy snows blocked the northern passes.
00:08:41Many merchant guilds refused to go near the border even if it meant taking a loss.
00:08:45Scar hosted that ball simply to placifate the gang leaders.
00:08:48Yes! Yes, exactly! All for the Empire!
00:08:51You're defending him.
00:08:54Just stating the facts.
00:08:56And what are you to him?
00:08:57His wife.
00:08:59So was the lady of the house present at the masquerade that night.
00:09:08You misunderstand me, General.
00:09:10I'm merely speaking up for my husband.
00:09:12As for the masquerade, I wasn't there. I was visiting my aunt in the country.
00:09:15So you're not worried about your husband fooling around behind your back?
00:09:19You cut off his contracts and publicly challenge him over a single party.
00:09:23Are you going to interrogate our marriage now too?
00:09:35Forgive my intrusion.
00:09:37General!
00:09:39I want a new logistics plan on my desk in two days.
00:09:42If it's the same garbage as before.
00:09:46Then you're done with the northern contracts. Forever.
00:09:49Yes, yes of course! I'll redraw everything!
00:10:00A stroke of luck, actually. There's no way Scar can come up with a new plan.
00:10:04If I use this to make him sleep with me again.
00:10:07Then you can stay, loud and clear.
00:10:14Good thing you had one on standby.
00:10:22General, please let me go!
00:10:24I'm just a foot soldier! I was following orders!
00:10:27My girl is waiting for me back home! Please, no! Please!
00:10:35Crimson Raven.
00:10:39General.
00:10:41Why haven't you found the woman from the masquerade yet?
00:10:46Do we even have prisoners left to kill?
00:10:49He's been looking for me since that night.
00:10:51Quite sure you can handle the consequences.
00:10:56Who's there?
00:11:06Crimson Raven.
00:11:07Why haven't you found her yet?
00:11:09Are you quite sure you can handle the consequences?
00:11:14What the hell is wrong with you?
00:11:19A cold-blooded monster.
00:11:20He actually thinks he's some hero of the Empire.
00:11:22Don't be angry, my lord. Have some wine.
00:11:27I'm a cold-blooded monster.
00:11:30And I'm killing his child.
00:11:32If he finds out by any reason for his food, he'll care me to pieces.
00:11:36More. The planning report can start.
00:11:44Women who come to my door usually fall into one of two categories.
00:11:47Those who want to get pregnant with someone else's child and those who want to get rid of their own.
00:11:53Which one are you?
00:11:54The latter.
00:11:55The latter.
00:11:58I'm out of a few herbs. I need to go fetch them.
00:12:10There's a gentleman in the back room who claims he's being haunted by the dead.
00:12:13If you hear him ring the bell, do me a favor and toss some of this incense into the burner
00:12:16for him.
00:12:24Let go.
00:12:26What are you doing?
00:12:29What is Scar's wife doing in a place like this?
00:12:37With someone else's child and those who want to get rid of their own.
00:12:44Surely the general doesn't think I'm the latter.
00:12:47I hear you and Scar have only been married for three months.
00:12:49In such a rush to have a baby.
00:12:51You're awfully invested in other people's private matters, general.
00:12:55Get out.
00:12:59I caused the burn. The least I can do is treat it.
00:13:02Not necessary. Leave the medicine. I'll do it myself.
00:13:05You can't exactly reach your own back.
00:13:14What a perfect body.
00:13:17Do you usually tend to your own mark, general?
00:13:19Yes. I don't like people touching my body.
00:13:23Apologies. This might sting a bit, general.
00:13:26All done.
00:13:26Hold on.
00:13:28Have you seen it before?
00:13:30Never.
00:13:31Is that so?
00:13:33I think it would suit me perfectly.
00:13:36General, please mind your boundaries.
00:13:39Her scent exactly the same.
00:13:48Changed your mind?
00:13:49If the man inside asked what I was doing here, tell him the exact opposite.
00:13:57You have the earrings.
00:13:58If you find out the secret, I'll never be able to explain myself.
00:14:01I need to end this.
00:14:03Fast.
00:14:07How is there so much of this?
00:14:12Caravans, tariffs, where's housing?
00:14:14That Lunatork wants me to reorganize everything in two days.
00:14:17Does he think I'm the Chancellor of the Excement?
00:14:19Don't be so grumpy, my lord.
00:14:22Besides, selling off a few properties will keep us comfortable for a long time.
00:14:26What do you know?
00:14:27I refuse to end up like my father, eating through his fortune till nothing was left but the title of
00:14:32a broke nobleman!
00:14:41But I suppose you have a point.
00:14:42What's the harm in selling one or two?
00:14:48Gently.
00:14:50I can't keep the baby.
00:14:52I can't keep it.
00:14:56Did you hear?
00:14:58The ally is starting to sell off the family estates.
00:15:01But those belong to her ladyship's grandfather.
00:15:04Where did you hear that?
00:15:06My lady.
00:15:07What is going on?
00:15:09The ally said that the northern contracts are likely gone, so he's selling off assets early to cover our expenses.
00:15:16Ska?
00:15:23Ska, we need to talk.
00:15:30Ever heard of knocking?
00:15:32Don't stop.
00:15:33You picked a bad time.
00:15:36If you still want the northern contracts, tell her to get out.
00:15:40You have a logistics plan?
00:15:42I said, tell her to get out.
00:15:47Ska?
00:15:52Get out.
00:15:53Hm.
00:15:54Why bother kicking me out?
00:15:55We're both women.
00:15:56I can tell you've no interest in intense confrontation, me for him.
00:16:00Not necessarily.
00:16:04Spill it.
00:16:05What's your play?
00:16:07I already have a solution for the northern supply routes.
00:16:10Tomorrow I'll go with you to see Eric.
00:16:14You seem... different today.
00:16:16You were just too focused on my grandfather's money to notice.
00:16:19Save it. If you fix this logistics mess, I might actually treat you a bit better.
00:16:23On the condition that you stop selling off the grandfather's estate.
00:16:28Deal.
00:16:28Deal.
00:16:31But wait!
00:16:32What is it?
00:16:34You're more beautiful.
00:16:36Intoxicating.
00:16:37More?
00:16:38But let me tell you.
00:16:39My name is Ska.
00:16:40Ska Al-Francis.
00:16:43That was close.
00:16:51Wait.
00:16:52Is that her ladyship?
00:16:53Breath?
00:16:54Are you crazy?
00:16:56How dare you fantasize about her ladyship?
00:16:58I'm scared.
00:16:59Shenzel.
00:17:00No, I'm telling you that's her voice.
00:17:02Wait.
00:17:03Wait.
00:17:03I think I heard it too.
00:17:09Don't do that.
00:17:10Did you hear?
00:17:11Her ladyship actually consummated the marriage with the ally.
00:17:15I thought he never touched her.
00:17:17It's true!
00:17:20Doesn't she find him repulsive?
00:17:24Finally over.
00:17:26If he tries to sell my inheritance once, he'll do it again.
00:17:29How much worse can things possibly get?
00:17:32I'm risking it!
00:17:34It's not as if I have any other way out.
00:17:44You don't want to make a fool of yourself in front of your cousin, do you?
00:17:52That was rape!
00:17:54Rape?
00:17:55Aren't we husband and wife?
00:17:56Are you going to tell the whole world that I raped you, Lord Banknett?
00:17:59A merchant's daughter.
00:18:01Shameless as expected.
00:18:02Your grandfather's entail is clear.
00:18:04Only your legitimate child can inherit the Valentin shops, lands and granaries.
00:18:09But I'm telling you right now, you won't get a second chance like that.
00:18:12What, once wasn't enough?
00:18:13Do you really have that little faith in your own... stamina?
00:18:16You bitch!
00:18:17Don't celebrate just yet, Mellis.
00:18:19Once you secure those Northern contracts for me, you'll be completely useless.
00:18:22I'll make you wish you were dead.
00:18:28Two days.
00:18:31Interesting.
00:18:32Seems you haven't been slacking after all.
00:18:35Of course.
00:18:36How could I neglect a direct order from the General?
00:18:39I poured my energy, sweat and tears into this...
00:18:42But why does it say to bypass Ashport?
00:18:46Well, because... because that port is... narrow.
00:18:50Right? The roads are terrible.
00:18:52I hear it's the largest port in the entire Empire. Did you not know that?
00:18:55Because Ashport has been cracking down on salt smuggling recently.
00:18:58The caravans are critical military ranchers for the North.
00:19:00If they go through Ashport and get detained on suspicion of smuggling,
00:19:03the delays would starve the Northern garrisons within three weeks.
00:19:06That's why we must re-route through the Eastern waterways,
00:19:08although it adds four days to the journey.
00:19:11But at least it's secure.
00:19:12The End
00:19:13The End
00:19:15The End
00:19:18The End
00:19:18The End
00:19:20Fascinating.
00:19:20It seems you aren't the real businessmen in the Alphonson family, Scott.
00:19:23No! That's not true!
00:19:24A lot of the other routes were my idea!
00:19:28I hate being lied to.
00:19:29Next time, it'll be your throat on the end of this blade.
00:19:33That's fine. Looks like he still hasn't recognized me.
00:19:36The Northern contracts are yours, fine.
00:19:38But she has to be involved.
00:19:40But cousin!
00:19:41Get out.
00:19:44Lady Melis.
00:19:46I didn't say you could leave.
00:20:05Melris Valentine.
00:20:06Your grandfather built a fine business.
00:20:08But a merchant's a merchant.
00:20:11The Alfronzi's family's fallen, sure, but they still have a title.
00:20:15You married him.
00:20:16Give and take.
00:20:18Must be humiliating, though.
00:20:25If you're trying to stir trouble between us, I'll leave.
00:20:30The North is secured, but the Empire is still surrounded.
00:20:33I need talent.
00:20:34Join my staff.
00:20:36Good pay, and I'll help you take back everything Scust stole.
00:20:38Shhh.
00:20:39Something's off.
00:20:40You flatter me, General.
00:20:42But I'm just a woman.
00:20:43Why go through all this trouble for me?
00:20:46Because the perfume you wear...
00:20:50smells just like someone.
00:20:52Someone I can't forget.
00:20:54My perfume costs three silver coins.
00:20:57Half the girls in the city wear it.
00:20:59I enjoy a good play in my spare time.
00:21:01Been working on one lately.
00:21:02A husband steals his wife's inheritance.
00:21:04Flaunts his affair.
00:21:05So the wife, to masquerade, takes a stranger to bed.
00:21:08Right under his nose.
00:21:09What do you think, my lady?
00:21:11Better than what's on at the theater?
00:21:12You've missed your calling, General.
00:21:13Should have been a playwright.
00:21:15Put them on.
00:21:16Then I'll know.
00:21:17General, please.
00:21:18I just want to be sure.
00:21:23Is this your war room or a torture chamber?
00:21:28Both.
00:21:29Let go!
00:21:30Have you lost your mind?
00:21:34This madman, he can't find out.
00:21:39Watch out!
00:21:43The great general.
00:21:44Assaulting his cousin's wife and his own whole empire would be ashamed.
00:21:47Find someone else for your staff, General.
00:21:58My lady, the Allies celebrating the Northern Deal.
00:22:01He's taken Lady Lilith to the hunting lodge and chose not to wait for you.
00:22:07Fine.
00:22:08Earrings gone, scars gone.
00:22:10At least tonight I get some peace.
00:22:14General!
00:22:16Are you alright?
00:22:17What happened here?
00:22:22Did you check her aunt's place?
00:22:24Find out if she was really there that night?
00:22:30It's a long way.
00:22:32My man won't be back until tomorrow at the earliest.
00:22:37Dammit!
00:22:40General!
00:22:42Where are you going?
00:22:43To see her.
00:22:44Now!
00:22:48W!
00:22:49The Valentine crest!
00:23:02Awake?
00:23:03Good.
00:23:04I don't like them cold.
00:23:09No!
00:23:11No!
00:23:11Get off!
00:23:12No!
00:23:15No!
00:23:15No!
00:23:15You bitch!
00:23:16This guy said you were a handful.
00:23:18He was right.
00:23:19I like that.
00:23:23Help!
00:23:25Help!
00:23:31Keep yelling, sweetheart.
00:23:32There's no one here.
00:23:34There's no one here.
00:23:35Just you and me.
00:23:46A real lady.
00:23:48Worth every penny.
00:23:50Come here.
00:23:53Why?
00:23:54How did it come to this?
00:23:57I just wanted back what was mine.
00:24:05You dare.
00:24:14Who the hell are you?
00:24:17How did you...
00:24:26Get a carriage.
00:24:27General.
00:24:28She's still Vadraska's wife.
00:24:30Taking her like this.
00:24:31Is that wise?
00:24:32You think that bastard treats her like a wife?
00:24:37What a pain.
00:24:39First he cancels the party.
00:24:40Now we're rushing back in the rain.
00:24:42Clever move, my lord.
00:24:44Catch the bitch red-handed.
00:24:46Of course.
00:24:47Even if she is pregnant, who knows whose bastard it is.
00:24:50She'll never touch my inheritance.
00:24:56Why have we stopped?
00:24:58Scar al-Frontis!
00:24:59Burglers!
00:25:08Protect the master!
00:25:14Cousin.
00:25:15What are you doing here?
00:25:16Three sentences.
00:25:18Explain.
00:25:19I took everyone to the hunting lodge.
00:25:22There must be some misunderstanding.
00:25:23Two.
00:25:23She's my wife.
00:25:25This is a family matter.
00:25:26You shouldn't-
00:25:26Three!
00:25:27General.
00:25:28This is still our house.
00:25:30And you're holding our mistress.
00:25:32Doesn't look right, does it?
00:25:38Not right.
00:25:39Mellis is in charge of my northern supply lines.
00:25:42She was nearly assault in her own home.
00:25:44You and Scar are suspects.
00:25:46I'm taking her in for questioning.
00:25:48Eric, you can't-
00:25:49Edward!
00:25:50Sir!
00:25:53Turn around.
00:25:58He's a hero.
00:25:59He's a hero.
00:25:59He's a hero.
00:25:59He's a hero.
00:25:59He's a hero.
00:26:00Drive faster!
00:26:02Get to the witch doctor, now!
00:26:04Get to the witch doctor, now!
00:26:13Well, well, look who's awake.
00:26:15My dear wife, did you really think you could get away?
00:26:18Watching us enjoy your grandfather's fortune must break your heart.
00:26:25He'd always be ours.
00:26:28But it was always meant to be ours.
00:26:37Maris, as your savior, I think I've earned the right to know the truth about that night.
00:26:43You're... you're right.
00:26:55You're awake.
00:26:56My clothes.
00:26:57You cut your knee pretty badly fighting that bastard. They were soaked in blood. I threw them out.
00:27:08Then who changed me into this?
00:27:12The witch doctor from that day. You know her?
00:27:16So, the woman in the mask that night. That was you, wasn't it?
00:27:23I...
00:27:26Sir, the scout has returned. The woman from that night has been found. It is not Lady Melris.
00:27:32What?
00:27:39What did you just say?
00:27:40General, we found the masked woman from that night. It's Lady Adele Valentine, daughter of Duke Ace. She's right outside.
00:27:55Melris? What on earth are you doing here?
00:28:02You two know each other.
00:28:06Good day, General. I am Adele Valentine.
00:28:11Melris is my cousin.
00:28:14Take them off.
00:28:21There's even a family crest engraved inside the earring.
00:28:25So that's why you came back to the castle looking for me.
00:28:31How did you come by these?
00:28:33Our grandfather had a pair of pearl earrings custom made for every girl in the Valentine family.
00:28:38My cousin likely has a pair very similar to mine, but not quite the same.
00:28:42Where were you a month ago?
00:28:43I had gone to visit my cousin that day, but as it turned out, she happened to be away at
00:28:46her mother's.
00:28:47When I arrived, I saw the castle was hosting a masquerade ball and I was curious.
00:28:50I heard you've been searching for the person from that, so I finally worked up the courage to come to
00:28:53you.
00:28:53I know this is hardly proper, but I...
00:28:56I simply couldn't forget you.
00:28:58How can she spew such nauseating lies without a shred of shame?
00:29:03Lady Melris.
00:29:05Is what she said true?
00:29:11Lady Melris.
00:29:14Is what she said true?
00:29:23Yes.
00:29:25Everything Adele said is true.
00:29:30General, you believe me now, don't you?
00:29:36Edward.
00:29:38Sir.
00:29:39Escort Lady Adele out, prepare a generous gift to thank her for her candid.
00:29:43What?
00:29:45General, aren't we going to talk a little longer?
00:29:59Lord Eric, thank you for saving me yesterday.
00:30:05I'll take my leave now.
00:30:06I also hope the General can keep what happened last night to himself.
00:30:09Wait!
00:30:10I saved you only because I have no interest in seeing my business partner come to harm.
00:30:16Business partner?
00:30:18When did I ever agree to that?
00:30:19The North cannot go a single day without grain shipments.
00:30:22Scar is worse than useless. I was counting on you from the start.
00:30:25Are you really going to turn me down?
00:30:27Take it. Come work for me.
00:30:30And I can offer you compensation beyond anything you'd imagine.
00:30:34No.
00:30:35If I stay by his side, my belly will grow day by day.
00:30:37He'll find out about the pregnancy sooner or later.
00:30:39This madman will never let me go.
00:30:40I appreciate the offer, my lord, but I must declare the proposal is already in your hands.
00:30:43I'm sure finding someone capable of understanding it won't be difficult.
00:30:45I told you, I have the power to help you reclaim every last piece of your grandfather's estate.
00:30:48Won't you at least consider?
00:30:49Perhaps you're not aware, but that fool Scar could never hold onto an estate of that size.
00:30:54Even the royal family has their eyes on that prize now.
00:30:57What do you think?
00:30:58Will Scar fight to the death to keep it, or will he trade your grandfather's legacy for a title and
00:31:02a promotion?
00:31:08Have you made up your mind?
00:31:10If what he says is true, time is running out, I have to take this gamble.
00:31:15But he can never ever find out about the child.
00:31:17I have two conditions.
00:31:19Name them.
00:31:20First, I'll serve as your advisor for two months with full authority over the northern trade routes.
00:31:24After two months, whether I succeed or fail, you will honor your promise and help me reclaim my entire inheritance.
00:31:29Fine.
00:31:30And the second?
00:31:32I...
00:31:34I'd like to receive part of my payment in advance to purchase a residence.
00:31:38Because of Scar?
00:31:39You've seen it yourself.
00:31:41That scum would do anything for money.
00:31:43I need somewhere safe.
00:31:45Scar and his mistress have already been thrown into the dungeon on suspicion of treason and collying with the enemy.
00:31:50You... when did you...
00:31:51While you were unconscious.
00:31:52And I've also had Edward replace every last guard at your castle.
00:31:56He had everything set in motion long before I woke up.
00:31:59Step by step, he's been backing me into a corner.
00:32:02What a ruthless, calculating bastard.
00:32:05You have my gratitude, General, for all the trouble you've gone to.
00:32:11Melris, just how long do you think you can keep running from me?
00:32:20Melris!
00:32:21What were you doing coming out of General Eric's estate today?
00:32:23And wearing his shirt, no less!
00:32:25Am I required to report my whereabouts to you?
00:32:27You don't have to report anything to me.
00:32:28But you're a married woman spending the night in another man's house.
00:32:32Have you no shame?
00:32:33Aren't you worried about dragging the Valentine name through the mud?
00:32:35General Eric is Scar's cousin.
00:32:36I call him my brother-in-law.
00:32:37What's wrong with visiting family?
00:32:38Forget it.
00:32:39I didn't come here to argue.
00:32:40I just wanted to remind you, you're already married.
00:32:41So the woman General Eric has been searching for all across the city can only be me.
00:32:45After all, you didn't come to my house that night, did you?
00:32:47I trust you know exactly what to do, my dear cousin.
00:32:48I know you envy me, being the woman who'll soon be at General Eric's side.
00:32:52Not like you.
00:32:53Your mother died young, and if Grandfather hadn't gone see me and left you a scrap of the estate,
00:32:57even Scar would have been out of your league.
00:32:59So now that I've got something on you, you'd better fall in line.
00:33:02You dare hit me?!
00:33:04I'll help you.
00:33:05But insulting Grandfather, that you deserved.
00:33:07And one more thing.
00:33:09My parents may have died young, but they did teach me one lesson.
00:33:12Do not provoke me, and I will not provoke you.
00:33:15But if you do provoke me, I will return it a hundredfold.
00:33:19Starting tomorrow, I'll use my knee injury as an excuse.
00:33:22I'll tell Eric I can't travel, so he'll have to come here for our discussions.
00:33:27When that happens, you can seize the opportunity yourself.
00:33:31Since when are you so generous?
00:33:32I need someone to distract him.
00:33:35You need a chance to get close to him.
00:33:37We each get what we want.
00:33:38You'd better mean what you say.
00:33:41Your vanity, dear cousin, has just done me an enormous favor.
00:33:52Two months.
00:33:54The northern route must be solid.
00:33:56How much does your garrison need for spring?
00:33:58It's still winter.
00:34:00Why ask that now?
00:34:01To be prepared.
00:34:03Spring floods are coming.
00:34:05Every foot the river rises.
00:34:07The supply boats draw one less foot.
00:34:10One delay, and the northern forts go hungry for three days.
00:34:14Why are you here?
00:34:15My cousin asked me to stay.
00:34:17So I did.
00:34:19I heard you talking about supplies.
00:34:22Grandfather taught me a thing or two.
00:34:24Hope you don't mind.
00:34:25If you have something useful to say, say it.
00:34:29Then I'll be bold.
00:34:31Then I'll be bold.
00:34:31About the northern route, there are only three routes.
00:34:33She stayed up all night memorizing my plan, word for word.
00:34:37But is he really that attractive?
00:34:38That road is safest, but the terrain is rough.
00:34:41So the caravans can load at the eastern waterway.
00:34:43That way, the relay stations won't be overwhelmed.
00:34:50Just some thoughts, General.
00:34:53Don't laugh at me.
00:34:56Seems the Valiant family has more than one businesswoman.
00:35:00You're too kind, General.
00:35:02I just read a few books.
00:35:04Nothing like my cousin.
00:35:07Lady Melris.
00:35:12Did you arrange Lady Adele for me?
00:35:14As a surprise?
00:35:18Of course not.
00:35:20General, don't joke like that.
00:35:28Just joking.
00:35:29No offence, Lady Adele.
00:35:39But you named three routes.
00:35:41Greyport's got salt inspections.
00:35:44Eastern waterways risky in spring floods.
00:35:46Northern road has bandits.
00:35:47If you had to pick one, which is safest?
00:35:51That sounds simple, but it's not.
00:35:54Weather.
00:35:55Manpower.
00:35:56Military schedules.
00:35:57I haven't figured it out yet.
00:36:02Use all three, General.
00:36:03Spread the risk.
00:36:05If one fails, the others keep the supply going.
00:36:08Three routes cost three times the money.
00:36:11If the Empire just wanted to buy safety,
00:36:13why hire merchants just print more coin?
00:36:16Business is like war.
00:36:18Memorizing tactics doesn't make you a general.
00:36:21He knew.
00:36:22He knew.
00:36:23He knew she was just reciting.
00:36:25I'm sorry.
00:36:26I didn't think it through.
00:36:29Bitch.
00:36:30She left out details on purpose.
00:36:34Made me look like a fool in front of him.
00:36:39Took you long enough.
00:36:41You want to die?
00:36:43Sorry, my lady.
00:36:44I didn't want it to be too hot.
00:36:47Useless.
00:36:47Get out.
00:36:53You like attention?
00:36:55Fine.
00:36:57I'll give you plenty.
00:37:06I wasn't much help just now.
00:37:08So I had the kitchen make coffee.
00:37:10For the general and my cousin.
00:37:23Cousin.
00:37:23Cousin.
00:37:24You used to love this blend as a child.
00:37:26Still the same, I hope?
00:37:27She knows this coffee gives me cramps.
00:37:30And I'm pregnant.
00:37:31Thank you, cousin, but...
00:37:34I ground the beans myself this morning.
00:37:36You won't even take a sip.
00:37:38After I went to all that trouble.
00:37:39You misunderstand.
00:37:40I just take my coffee, Weesa.
00:37:42More sugar.
00:37:43Fine. I'll get you some.
00:37:45Wait here.
00:37:56If I spill it, she'll say I challenge her.
00:37:58But where can I pour it with him watching?
00:38:04General.
00:38:07Next time you don't want something, knock it over.
00:38:10In front of me, you don't have to spare anyone's feelings.
00:38:14Cousin, here's your...
00:38:17General, you drank hers too?
00:38:25You?
00:38:26Sorry.
00:38:26Let me clean that up.
00:38:30Scatter.
00:38:32Then gather.
00:38:36I've got it!
00:38:38Someone said, give me a lever and I'll move the world.
00:38:41Why not find a lever for the northern route too?
00:38:45You mean Silverbush?
00:38:47Right.
00:38:49Grayport can't handle big wagons, but it can take sealed crates and small boats.
00:38:53Eastern waterways risky in spring, but light boats can make it.
00:38:58Northern road runs empty carriages and guards.
00:39:01By the time anyone notices, the grain's already on the north.
00:39:04So we split everything into three.
00:39:07Sent to Silverbush first.
00:39:08The enemy sees three fake roads, but the real way they never see coming.
00:39:15A diversion!
00:39:17Brilliant!
00:39:18You really are the one I chose, Melris.
00:39:21You're too kind.
00:39:23There she goes again.
00:39:24Stealing the show.
00:39:26I should have made her drink that coffee.
00:39:28General, your neck.
00:39:30And your hands.
00:39:32Don't scratch.
00:39:36That looks like a nettle rash.
00:39:38Scratching will lose scars.
00:39:40You put something in the coffee.
00:39:51I didn't, I swear.
00:39:55Get a physician.
00:39:56If there's anything in that coffee that shouldn't be there, the dungeon is the least of your worries.
00:40:00General, I was only trying to...
00:40:02Get out!
00:40:06General, until the physician arrives, the itching will get worse.
00:40:10Let me make you a salve.
00:40:11My grandfather taught me some remedies.
00:40:14Fine. Try.
00:40:17Quick!
00:40:18Get me plantates, kalimdala, rose water and some cold cream bakes.
00:40:22Oh, my God.
00:40:26Out. Close the door.
00:40:43General, the salve is ready.
00:40:45Then what are you waiting for?
00:40:46Come here, help me put it on.
00:40:49But you said you don't like people touching you.
00:40:51Once is strange, twice is familiar.
00:40:54Not the first time.
00:40:55Still shy?
00:40:56Who's shy?
00:41:07I have to admit, this body, those muscles, it's deadly.
00:41:18Had enough?
00:41:21What? I...
00:41:25You're salve works. Itching's almost gone.
00:41:28But your technique is terrible.
00:41:33General!
00:41:34The rash is definitely from stinging nettle.
00:41:37But the coffee is clean.
00:41:39No poison.
00:41:40What?
00:41:54General, I've tested both cups carefully.
00:41:57No poison whatsoever.
00:41:59But the handle of this cup...
00:42:02There's trace amounts of stinging nettle pulp.
00:42:07General, you heard him.
00:42:08No poison in the coffee.
00:42:09I was just trying to be nice.
00:42:10How could I possibly want to hurt you?
00:42:12It must be the kitchen staff.
00:42:13They handled wild vegetables without washing their hands.
00:42:16Then they touched the cups.
00:42:17That's possible.
00:42:18Young nettle can be boiled and eaten.
00:42:20Some servants use it as cheap greens.
00:42:22Cousin, this is your castle.
00:42:23Aren't you going to question your own servants?
00:42:25If someone tried to poison the general, that's a death sentence.
00:42:36The pulp is dry by now.
00:42:37No one saw her do it.
00:42:39Even if we investigate, she'll blame the kitchen.
00:42:42General, the physician already said there's no poison.
00:42:45You're not seriously hurt.
00:42:46Why don't we leave it here?
00:42:48Otherwise, someone might use this to sow discord in the household.
00:42:51Cousin!
00:42:52Are you still accusing me?
00:42:56Just thinking out loud.
00:42:58Don't read too much into it, cousin.
00:43:04My lady! Duke Isles has arrived!
00:43:09Oh, Duke Isles!
00:43:11Father!
00:43:14My dear girl, don't cry.
00:43:16Tell me, who made you cry?
00:43:18Father, someone tried to say I poisoned General Eric's coffee.
00:43:21Eric!
00:43:21My daughter is spoiled but never dare poison anyone.
00:43:25This must be a misunderstanding.
00:43:26Don't you agree?
00:43:32Same Valentine blood.
00:43:34How can they be so different?
00:43:37Duke, don't worry.
00:43:38This happened in Lady Melris' castle.
00:43:40She's not pressing charges.
00:43:42Neither am I.
00:43:43Good.
00:43:44A misunderstanding then.
00:43:46Let's move on.
00:43:47No!
00:43:48We can't just let this go.
00:43:50Her servants must be the ones who did this.
00:43:52We should question every single one of them.
00:43:54Shut your mouth, Adele.
00:43:56If you want Eric, don't act like a fool in front of him.
00:43:59Know when to stop.
00:44:01Understand?
00:44:03General, I'm also here on the Emperor's orders.
00:44:05He's concerned.
00:44:06You locked up Vanlant Scar for treason.
00:44:09But he's still a titled noble.
00:44:10You didn't file any paperwork with the court.
00:44:12That puts the Emperor in a difficult position.
00:44:14It's a delicate matter.
00:44:15I am a witness.
00:44:17The man who broke into my castle admitted Scar sent him to assault me.
00:44:20Lady Melris, the Emperor is sympathetic to your ordeal.
00:44:22But one woman's testimony isn't enough to convict a Vittart.
00:44:25Besides, you're still husband and wife.
00:44:27Wouldn't it be more dignified to find a compromise?
00:44:29No compromise.
00:44:32Lady Melris, the Emperor's wish is...
00:44:34You can tell the Emperor this.
00:44:35I may be a merchant's daughter, but I won't be bullied.
00:44:37If he wants me to drop this, Suscar returns everything my grandfather left me and he divorces me.
00:44:42That...
00:44:44I agree.
00:44:51The Valentine estate is tied to the northern supply route.
00:44:54It's a matter of Imperial security.
00:44:56Scar couldn't even protect his own wife.
00:44:58How can he be trusted with such assets?
00:45:00Better put it in the right hands.
00:45:02You too.
00:45:03I'll convey your proposal to the Emperor.
00:45:06Thank you, Duke.
00:45:16Melris, you're a clever woman.
00:45:17If you help Adele marry General Eric, I'll put in a good word for you with the Emperor.
00:45:22You're very invested in your daughter's marriage, Duke.
00:45:24The whole city knows Eric as looking for the masked woman from that night.
00:45:27My daughter claimed it was her.
00:45:28The Duke's honor is at stake.
00:45:30So it doesn't matter who it really was.
00:45:32It has to be Adele.
00:45:35I knew you'd understand.
00:45:43After the Duke left, things were calm.
00:45:46I put everything into the Mortham supply plan.
00:45:57Less than to the month, our plan was ready.
00:46:00The first Tushed shipment was about to leave.
00:46:09It looks like the test run worked.
00:46:15Melris, I want to throw a banquet.
00:46:18A banquet?
00:46:20Who should we invite?
00:46:21You handle it.
00:46:30Who to invite?
00:46:32The Emperor hasn't agreed to my terms yet.
00:46:34He's still unhappy about Eric's actions.
00:46:36If I push too hard, it might backfire.
00:46:44I'll need the Duke to speak on my behalf.
00:46:50Beth?
00:46:52My lady, what do you need?
00:46:54I'll do it.
00:46:57I'll do it.
00:47:20I'll do it.
00:47:23Oh.
00:47:23What?
00:47:23No more than supply route in such a short time.
00:47:25You flatter me, my lord.
00:47:27None of this would be possible without General Eric's trust.
00:47:31And your support behind the scenes.
00:47:33Maris.
00:47:34Uncle.
00:47:35The general isn't here yet?
00:47:37He's dealing with urgent military matters.
00:47:39He asked me to open the evening in his place.
00:47:42A married woman, acting like she's the lady of the house.
00:47:45How does she have the nerve?
00:47:49General, the banquet has started.
00:47:52Aren't you going?
00:47:53Better to let it out here than lose control in front of everyone.
00:48:02Tonight, I want every noble in the capital to see what Melris is worth.
00:48:06The northern supply plan, plus the support of the aristocracy.
00:48:09Even if the emperor resists, he'll have to let her take back what's hers.
00:48:12General, you've gone to great lengths for her.
00:48:16She deserves it.
00:48:17General Eric is just so busy.
00:48:19He insists on doing everything himself, but he told me tonight's banquet.
00:48:24Nominally for celebration, but actually...
00:48:26Actually what?
00:48:27Adele, don't stop there.
00:48:29Actually, it's for me.
00:48:31Is he going to propose?
00:48:33Oh, don't say that.
00:48:35But, soon.
00:48:37Unlike some people, can't even keep her own husband.
00:48:40Her inheritance is slipping away.
00:48:42How pathetic.
00:48:44Same old lines.
00:48:46No imagination.
00:48:47Cousin.
00:48:48Once the general and I are engaged, do you really think you can keep hanging around him?
00:48:52A married woman?
00:48:53If that happens, I'll congratulate you.
00:48:55In another month, my partnership with the general ends.
00:48:58He'll be all yours.
00:48:59What did you say?
00:49:00I'm sorry.
00:49:03I'm sorry.
00:49:04I'm sorry.
00:49:05Say that again.
00:49:06General!
00:49:07You're finally here!
00:49:13Who invited her?
00:49:17Who invited her?
00:49:21Who invited her?
00:49:24My cousin meant well.
00:49:26She wrote to me herself.
00:49:29Asked me to come.
00:49:30If I've upset the general, I'll leave.
00:49:33General!
00:49:35You...
00:49:39Damn it.
00:49:40He didn't even look at me.
00:49:46Why did you invite that woman?
00:49:49You said I could arrange the guest list.
00:49:51Not her!
00:49:52A liar.
00:49:54The Duke is the Emperor's right hand.
00:49:56I couldn't not invite him, and he'd bring her.
00:49:59So you sold me out to get your inheritance back?
00:50:02Yes.
00:50:03If that's how you see it.
00:50:05But do you really want the Emperor to think you're a threat?
00:50:08Distrust you?
00:50:09Even turn against you?
00:50:11Then you'd lose everything, just like me.
00:50:15You're worried about me?
00:50:16I'm not.
00:50:17I just want to know how you'll help me get my inheritance back.
00:50:20The two months are almost out.
00:50:24Melris.
00:50:26Why do you keep pushing me away?
00:50:44General Eric, where did you go?
00:50:46I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:50:52Go away from me!
00:50:53Go away from me!
00:50:54No!
00:50:57No!
00:50:58My daughter is carrying your child!
00:51:01No!
00:51:05No!
00:51:06No!
00:51:06What did you say?
00:51:15Eric!
00:51:16My daughter is pregnant with your child
00:51:19How much more humiliation must she endure?
00:51:30Impossible
00:51:31You don't believe it?
00:51:37Dr. Sear!
00:51:43Lady Adele, if you please
00:51:48Yes
00:51:51Eric, let's be honest
00:51:53We both know Adele isn't a woman from that night
00:51:56But do you really want the truth to come out?
00:51:59Even if you could prove she's lying
00:52:02Would you dare?
00:52:04The Emperor himself weren't desperate to be like that
00:52:06Then go ahead
00:52:07Let everyone know that Maris, a married woman, committed adultery
00:52:10She won't get her inheritance back
00:52:11She'll be lucky to stay alive
00:52:13Marry Adele
00:52:14Our houses unite
00:52:15The Emperor would welcome it
00:52:17It's best for everyone
00:52:17Even for Maris
00:52:19Fine
00:52:22Everyone!
00:52:22Lady Adele's urine is pale yellow, slightly cloudy, after standing a white precipitation forms
00:52:28This indicates pregnancy, early stage, but 70% certain
00:52:45I see
00:52:45I see
00:52:48I agree
00:52:51Two weeks from now I will marry Lady Adele
00:53:16I keep telling myself he's just a partner, a killer, a madman I should stay away from
00:53:22I keep telling myself he's just a partner, a killer, a madman I should stay away from
00:53:25I hate being light
00:53:27I hate being light
00:53:27But the memories keep coming back
00:53:29I can't stop them
00:53:33I can't believe General Eric proposed to Lady Adele tonight
00:53:38And the wedding is in two weeks
00:53:43I heard she's already pregnant
00:53:45That's why it's so rushed
00:53:47The Emperor himself will be dead
00:53:48I must remember what we gave you to her
00:53:51This is all my fault
00:53:55If I hadn't dragged him into that dance, he wouldn't have been searching for that woman
00:53:59Adele wouldn't have had a chance
00:54:01Now the Duke is threatening him
00:54:03Adele is pretending to be pregnant
00:54:04He's trapped
00:54:06You're the one I chose, Alice
00:54:08No
00:54:10I let you down
00:54:13My lady, you haven't eaten in two weeks
00:54:16You'll make yourself ill
00:54:20I've made up my mind
00:54:21I'm going to see Eric
00:54:22But soon
00:54:25You may have to leave this castle
00:54:28Whatever you decide, my lady
00:54:29I shouldn't know the rest
00:54:36Thank you, Bels
00:54:43This all started because of me
00:54:45Even if they call me a whore
00:54:48Even if I lose any hope of getting my inheritance back
00:54:51I have to tell him the truth
00:54:58Eric, whatever it costs me
00:55:01This time, I'll face it with you
00:55:04I won't let you carry this alone
00:55:10This isn't right
00:55:11Stop the carriage
00:55:12Why are we going this way?
00:55:15Took you long enough to notice, my lady
00:55:18You work for Adele
00:55:23The lady knew you'd go to the general
00:55:33The box fell out
00:55:35Should we get it?
00:55:35Who cares?
00:55:36The lady only wants her
00:55:40Women wants that general
00:55:42What's he got that I don't?
00:55:44The lady won't even look at me
00:55:47You?
00:55:48If anyone, it should be me
00:55:51Maybe that kid in her belly is mine
00:55:54She called me to her room plenty of times
00:55:56She called me too
00:55:58Who knows who the father really is?
00:56:01She's sleeping with her own guards?
00:56:03And she wants to marry Eric?
00:56:05She's insane
00:56:13Cousin
00:56:14You slapped me before
00:56:16Now we're even
00:56:25Adele, the truth always comes out
00:56:27Keep telling yourself that
00:56:29Once the Emperor approves, nothing else matters
00:56:32Oh, I have good news for you
00:56:34You should thank Eric and my father
00:56:36The Emperor just signed over all the Valentine property to you
00:56:42Now, what will you do to the woman who made you lose everything?
00:56:48Enjoy yourself
00:56:49I don't want anyone knowing she's here until after the wedding
00:56:54Melris
00:57:01My dear
00:57:02We meet again
00:57:04Adele told me everything
00:57:06You and Eric
00:57:07No wonder he's always protecting you
00:57:10If you're carrying his bastard, I hope it's born as mad as he is
00:57:15Mad or not
00:57:16At least it won't be a fool like you
00:57:18Used and thrown away without even knowing it
00:57:21What do you mean?
00:57:22Kill me
00:57:23And you'll hang
00:57:24I won't kill you
00:57:25I'll make you wish you were dead
00:57:27Then Adele defeat me and blames you
00:57:29You're the perfect scapegoat
00:57:32What do you think the Emperor will do then?
00:57:36I've got nothing left
00:57:38I'm a dead man walking
00:57:39Taking you with me?
00:57:41Worth it!
00:57:46Damn it
00:57:46Ever since she left
00:57:49Even killing prisoners only helps for a moment now
00:57:53General, just need the final route map for Silverbirth
00:57:56Lady Milesh was supposed to bring it this morning
00:57:58She didn't come?
00:57:59No
00:57:59And she didn't send word either
00:58:04General!
00:58:05Please save my lady!
00:58:07What happened to her?
00:58:08She left yesterday with a box
00:58:10Said she was coming to you
00:58:12To tell you everything
00:58:15She...
00:58:17General
00:58:18Found this on the road to your estate
00:58:19Inside
00:58:20An earring
00:58:21Looks like the one Lady Adele wears
00:58:24That's it
00:58:25That's the box my lady was carrying
00:58:29The road to my estate
00:58:31Also leads to Adele's villa
00:58:34Move
00:58:35Now
00:58:41Who goes there?
00:58:42This is Duke's property
00:58:50Stay outside
00:58:57Eric
00:58:58Look
00:58:58Isn't it beautiful?
00:59:02Where is Melris?
00:59:04I don't know what you're talking about
00:59:06Eric
00:59:06I'm your fiance
00:59:07I'm carrying your child
00:59:09Why do you always think of her?
00:59:11I won't ask again
00:59:13Eric
00:59:13This is a Duke's castle
00:59:14You want to search it?
00:59:15Then follow the rules
00:59:17Hand over your sword
00:59:24That's better
00:59:25Come my dear fiance
00:59:27Let me show you around our new home
00:59:38Ah you bitch
00:59:40Look this is the nursery
00:59:42For our child
00:59:43Do you like blue or pink?
00:59:45He'll be just as handsome as you I'm sure
00:59:52Just rats in the wine cellar
00:59:58Open that carpet
00:59:59Now
01:00:07Bitch
01:00:10Let me give you some air before you die
01:00:20Make a sound and I'll kill you now
01:00:31See?
01:00:32Nothing
01:00:32Just rats
01:00:41Light it up
01:00:42Light it up
01:00:44There's someone down there
01:00:45Where are they?
01:00:50Die
01:00:53Eric
01:00:53Even if you are my fiance
01:00:56Treating me like this
01:00:57The emperor himself wouldn't side with you
01:01:04Help me
01:01:05Help me
01:01:07Help me
01:01:15It's wood
01:01:17Eric
01:01:18Melis is a married woman
01:01:20Going crazy over her
01:01:25The whole empire will laugh at you
01:01:28For taking Saka's leftovers
01:01:44Melis
01:01:46Eric
01:01:55Watch out
01:01:56Scott's still here
01:02:02Cousin
01:02:02You really can't stay away from this whore
01:02:05Can you?
01:02:08You pathetic fool
01:02:10Pointing a knife at me
01:02:14Still looking down on me
01:02:16After I defeat you
01:02:18I'll have my fun with her
01:02:19Then she's dead too
01:02:21Enough talk
01:02:26Catch Eric
01:02:32Shut up, bitch
01:02:38Cousin
01:02:39You're a fool
01:02:41Throwing your life away for a woman
01:02:57No, don't kill me
01:02:58Cousin
01:02:59We're family
01:03:00Think of your aunt
01:03:01Get out
01:03:03You're not worth the effort
01:03:07Look out
01:03:18It's over
01:03:20But you're up
01:03:22It's fine
01:03:23It doesn't hurt
01:03:34Thank God
01:03:36You're alive
01:03:36You idiot
01:03:38Why do you always show up
01:03:40When I need you
01:03:41You kept pushing me away
01:03:43But after I took you from Saka that night
01:03:46I knew it was you
01:03:49How?
01:03:51Because you're different
01:03:54I won the war in the north
01:03:57But my regiment
01:03:59Crimson Raven
01:03:59Was wiped out
01:04:00Since that day
01:04:03I've never really left that battlefield
01:04:09Everyone
01:04:09And everything
01:04:11Will rot in my eyes
01:04:15Except
01:04:17You that night
01:04:27Of course
01:04:28Killing those prisoners
01:04:28Helps too
01:04:30Revenge for my men
01:04:31The vision stopped for a while
01:04:33The rumors
01:04:34They said you kill for fun
01:04:36It's because of this
01:04:37They had my brother's blood on their hands
01:04:39They deserve to die
01:04:41I hid from you
01:04:43Because I thought you were a monster
01:04:46Maybe I am
01:04:47But if I hadn't met you that night
01:04:49My world would be nothing but hell
01:04:58You've suffered enough
01:05:05My dear son-in-law
01:05:07The wedding is about to start
01:05:08And here you are hiding in a cellar
01:05:10With another man's wife
01:05:12How unbecoming
01:05:18Duke
01:05:18Is this your wedding party
01:05:19Or a coup
01:05:22What do you think
01:05:23General
01:05:25The Emperor himself
01:05:26Is officiating
01:05:27Only you could draw him here
01:05:30Your target is the Emperor
01:05:32Two choices
01:05:33Put on the suit
01:05:35Marry my daughter
01:05:37I promise Lady Melris
01:05:39Will live
01:05:41Or you both die here
01:05:43Fine
01:05:43But you swear
01:05:44She won't be harmed
01:05:45Of course
01:05:47Take the groom to change
01:05:56Get rid of the woman
01:05:57Cleanly
01:06:07Sorry my lady
01:06:08Nothing personal
01:06:09You're just in the way
01:06:26Forgive me my lady
01:06:27The general had me wait
01:06:28Outside the castle
01:06:29He guessed something like this
01:06:30Might happen
01:06:37I won't kill you
01:06:39But at the wedding
01:06:40In front of the Emperor
01:06:41You'll say what you said
01:06:43In the carriage
01:06:44Every word
01:06:46Lady Adele will have our heads
01:06:48She was going to kill you anyway
01:06:50After I'm dead
01:06:51Would she leave two witnesses alive
01:06:53Fine
01:06:55Fine
01:06:57Time is short Edward
01:06:58Split up
01:06:59You take them to the Imperial Guard
01:07:00Wait outside the chapel
01:07:01I'll go ahead
01:07:02My lady
01:07:02That's too dangerous
01:07:03If the general finds out
01:07:18These ceremonial guards are wearing battle armor
01:07:20The Duke's men
01:07:23Eric
01:07:24Are you unwell
01:07:30Your majesty
01:07:31The general is merely tired
01:07:32Wedding nerves perhaps
01:07:36Remember
01:07:36Melis is still in my hands
01:07:39Ruin this wedding
01:07:40She won't see tomorrow
01:07:42General Eric
01:07:44Rosenheit
01:07:45Do you take Lady Adele
01:07:47To be your wedded wife
01:07:48To have and to hold
01:07:49He does not
01:08:04Who is that
01:08:06How dare they interrupt the wedding
01:08:08In front of his majesty
01:08:16Sorry Lady Adele
01:08:18He's already taken
01:08:23Who are you
01:08:24How dare you
01:08:26Guards
01:08:27Remove this woman
01:08:30Impressive
01:08:31You've saved me enough times
01:08:34Let me save you for once
01:08:40Del
01:08:41Eric doesn't belong to you
01:08:43Oh it's you
01:08:44The whore
01:08:45Come to steal another woman's wedding
01:08:46Eric come here
01:08:47I am the one you're looking for
01:08:48I'm carrying your child
01:08:49Lie often enough
01:08:50And you start to believe it yourself
01:08:53Lady Adele was never at that massacre
01:08:55She lied
01:08:56She forced me to cover from her
01:08:58Which is my aunt
01:09:00That's how she killed everyone
01:09:01Even the general
01:09:02Lies
01:09:02You have an earring
01:09:03So do I
01:09:04That hurts nothing
01:09:05And I'm pregnant with the general's child
01:09:07That no one can deny
01:09:11Really
01:09:15Gentlemen
01:09:16Gentlemen
01:09:18In front of his majesty
01:09:19And the court
01:09:20Tell us
01:09:20Who really fathered Lady Adele's child
01:09:25It was me
01:09:26No him
01:09:27Your majesty
01:09:28Spare us
01:09:29She called both of us to her chambers
01:09:30We don't know whose it is
01:09:35Duke Isles
01:09:36This is the daughter you raised
01:09:38How much else have you been hiding from me
01:09:39My daughter just wanted to marry
01:09:41What harm was there
01:09:42Since you're all so eager to humiliate us
01:09:44Your majesty
01:09:45Let's continue the celebration
01:09:47Since my daughter's wedding is off
01:09:48How about a coronation instead
01:09:53Your majesty
01:09:56You trusted that mad dog from the north too much
01:09:59The capital's finances
01:10:01The noble marriages
01:10:01The palace defences
01:10:02Who controls all of it
01:10:05My house
01:10:06Yes
01:10:07This is treason
01:10:08History is written by the victor
01:10:10I wanted to use the marriage to control the general
01:10:13Take my time
01:10:13The plans change
01:10:15You think you can protect anyone?
01:10:34Lady Malice already won the imperial guard
01:10:36Your own men are on their way
01:10:58Your fight is with me
01:11:07Arrest them
01:11:08Every last one of the traitors
01:11:11I should be the one standing beside him
01:11:17It's all because of you Malice
01:11:21Die bitch
01:11:33Eric
01:11:39The bride
01:11:42Should have been
01:11:44Me
01:11:50Eric
01:11:52Eric
01:11:55Eric
01:11:56Eric
01:12:04The general has a strong constitution
01:12:05He'll live
01:12:07But he needs months of rest
01:12:09The wounds are deep
01:12:13Why did you have to be so stupid
01:12:15Throwing yourself in front of a knife for me
01:12:24You even cry beautifully
01:12:25You're awake
01:12:26Stop joking at a time like this
01:12:28I'm here
01:12:32I'm not afraid to die
01:12:33The only thing I'm afraid of
01:12:35Is you ignoring me
01:12:36If you ever throw yourself in front of a knife
01:12:39Again
01:12:40And I really will ignore you
01:12:41Malice
01:12:42Will you marry me?
01:12:52Yes
01:12:53I'll marry you
01:12:54You said it
01:12:56No taking it back
01:12:58But after I interrupted the wedding
01:13:00Everyone knows I slept with you while I was still married
01:13:03The emperor doesn't approve of me
01:13:05I'm afraid
01:13:05As long
01:13:06As you're willing
01:13:07Nothing else matters
01:13:21Oh
01:13:22I almost forgot to tell you something
01:13:32A secret
01:13:33What secret?
01:13:40I'm pregnant too
01:13:43What did you just say?
01:13:45I said I'm pregnant
01:13:47Yours
01:13:49How long?
01:13:50Since
01:13:51That first night
01:13:52That's my boy
01:13:53Why didn't you tell me sooner?
01:13:55I was afraid you'd think I used you
01:13:58That I just wanted your seed
01:14:00Idiot
01:14:02My child
01:14:04I'll raise him myself
01:14:07Then you'd better get well soon
01:14:09For him
01:14:10I'll be out of bed tomorrow
01:14:13Don't be silly
01:14:14The witch doctor said months of rest
01:14:18Then you stay with me
01:14:22Alright
