Oh my, what's with the heavy atmosphere?
They've been like this since they came back from his sister's school.
Did encountering Baskerville come as such a surprise?
No.
I heard the cause of this was Elliot Nightray.
Who? Oh, that boy with the dangerously short fuse.
So he was attending the same school.
Yes, it almost seems like fate. It was he and his attendant who saved Sir Oz.
What's the meaning of this?
I want to know about that tune.
Any information would help!
That tune?
The piano four hands piece you two were playing!
What about it?
I composed it.
Its name is "Lacie."
What?!
You got a problem with that?!
But...
Never mind that. Isn't it time you told me your name?
I don't know what I'm supposed to call you.
My name...
If his attitude toward Ada is because of the discord between our families...
He'll probably go off on me when he finds out I'm a Vessalius, too.
But I get the feeling I shouldn't lie to him.
That's why...
My name is...
Oz!
You're all right, Oz?!
Come on, Gil! Can't you see I'm in the middle of something?!
What are you mad about?!
Shut up!
You know how much trouble we were in?!
I had my own share of troubles!
A lot of girls suddenly ambushed and surrounded me...
...and I couldn't move at all!
- You sound like you're gloating! ...and I couldn't move at all!
Gilbert?
Elliot?
You're attending this school, too?
What a surprise. I didn't expect to see you here.
How have you been...
Why are you here?!
Gilbert!
Elliot, what are you d?!
And what's with that outfit?
Wearing a school uniform at the age of 24?!
Have you no shame?!
Can't argue that!
Hey! Who are you?!
How do you know that man?
Elliot!
I won't allow anyone to hurt him. Not even you.
He's my master.
Oz Vessalius!
Vessalius.
Sorry.
He's Oz?
I heard Oz Vessalius died 10 years ago.
This is stupid!
Let's go, Reo!
Elliot! I...
Shut up!
I don't trust a word you people say!
And they went separate ways without speaking again.
Oh, the poor thing.
And Gilbert there is down because his brother blew up in his face?
Shut up.
There's one more.
What are you pouting about, Alice?
I'm acting the way I always do.
Yup.
As usual, you eat a lot but are totally useless!
Shut your trap, Break.
Come, Alice. If something is bothering you, talk to me about it.
Nothing is bothering me!
Come.
"Senses danger instinctively."
Sir Oz won't...
...pay any attention to you?
No, that's not what I said!
I'm saying he's forgetting that he's supposed to be my slave.
He had tea with the clown the other day without me...
And he had such a huge grin when he was with his little sister.
Even now, he's worrying about some other guy, too.
Why?
He belongs to me, so why does he keep thinking about other people?
Uh, so you mean to tell me...
That's wonderful.
Miss Sharon?
That's wonderful, Alice!
You're like an innocent maiden! You're sweet like love!
Uhh, what?
Listen, Alice. That emotion you are feeling is called "jealousy."
What's that? Does it taste good?
Not at all. I have heard it can be bittersweet.
I don't like bitter stuff much.
But wait! The bittersweet feeling is what's necessary for romance!
What's romance? Does it taste good?
Yes, I have heard it's exceptionally sweet!
Miss Sharon's "Maiden Switch" flipped on...
I think I'll excuse myself.
Not so fast, Break.
We must come to Alice's aid.
I don't need help from you people...
"You people?"
Speaking of which, you've never called me by name.
This makes me so sad!
I know!
Try calling me "Sister Sharon!"
Wh-Why "Sister?"
Don't worry about the details!
That's stupid! Why should I?!
Come now!
Hurry.
"Senses danger instinctively. Part 2."
S... S...
Sister Sharon.
Sharon-Vision Sister Sharon.
Sharon-Vision
Did you hear that, Break?!
It feels as if I now have a little sister!
Rest assured.
No matter how I see it, you simply resemble an old hag pestering every little girl you...
Paper Fan
Now, Alice. It's time to teach you some things about romance.
Paper Fan Big Sister Sharon will teach you everything gently.
Paper Fan
What are these books?
These are romance bibles.
For example, take a look at a passage from this novel.
"I am his master. I am the only one he should cry pitifully for."
"The cur who wags his tail for everyone passing by requires severe discipline."
Just like me!
So what did she do?
Um, Sister Sharon.
Yes, Alice?
The protagonist took advantage of her political power and expunged her rivals by force.
And in the end...
Why did you close the book?
*Heart Pounding*
N-No reason at all!
*Heart Pounding*
I just thought it's a bit too early for you to see that scene.
*Heart Pounding*
You mean the kiss?
*Heart Pounding*
Oz and I already kissed.
You're a wolf in rabbit's clothing!
Illegal Contractors seal the contract by swallowing the blood of a Chain.
K-Kiss? Oz did? Illegal Contractors seal the contract by swallowing the blood of a Chain.
Oh please, Sir Oz.
If it's about the time you sealed the contract, why didn't you say so?
I wish you gave me the chance to.
And Alice is the rabbit, not me.
Oz... kissed...
Glad to see you're all here.
Hi, Uncle Oscar.
Yo.
Well, if it isn't the pervert who was caught under the suspicion of stealing female student uniforms.
Are you one to talk, Xerxes?
Being looked down upon by the ladies with scornful eyes can be quite rewarding.
Culprit Hahaha! Being looked down upon by the ladies with scornful eyes can be quite rewarding.
You freaking masochist.
Oh? Did you bring some juice with you?
That's right.
We couldn't figure out who Ada has a thing for...
But seeing how we're all safe, I thought we should hold a little party.
Come here and pick up a glass.
A toast to our safety.
Cheers!
This liquid isn't juice...
What are you talking about?
This is bona fide juice with alcohol mixed in.
People call that liquor, Uncle.
Don't worry about the details.
Besides, you're already 25.
25 years old.
I guess so...
25 years old.
24 years old.
Doll. Over 20 years old.
She might not look it, but she's over 20.
A Chain (not human).
No one here is a minor!
Still... You're 25 years old, I see.
You don't have to emphasize it so much. What are you afraid of?
Oh, look! Alice is awake!
A-Alice?
It's hot in here.
Substitute
Alice, no!
Stop it, Alice!
Snap
Oz.
Peace!
Here's my middle and index fingers!
To our viewers. Please do not try this at home.
She's completely drunk!
Sharon!
You have to help me, Sharon!
Alice is drunk and she's...
Help you?
If you want my help, get on your knees and beg for it, filthy pigs.
She's like a real queen! A really good one at that!
Who're you calling kelp head?
He's completely drunk, too.
Gil never held his alcohol well.
Master Gilbert, that's a vase!
You always call me kelp head!
Eek! He's coming after me! You always call me kelp head!
So he's bothered by that nickname.
You know how great kelp really is? So he's bothered by that nickname.
He's the heckling type, it seems.
It's good for fatigue and your complexion! He's the heckling type, it seems.
It's good for fatigue and your complexion! The worst of its kind!
You got that, you stupid damn rabbit?!
What did you say?
This one, too?! How am I stupid?!
How?! You can't even tell?!
Nope! Can't tell! Let's hear you explain it!
Sniff... Nope! Can't tell! Let's hear you explain it!
Sniff...
Explain to me exactly how I'm stupid!
How are you stupid?
Gilbert-Vision
You're stupid no matter how I look at you!
Hahaha!
The seal got lifted!
He probably loosened his grip because of the alcohol.
Oh, my bad.
Hey, seafood!
Stop touching my slave!
Shut up! He doesn't belong to you.
He's my precious master!
No, I own him!
You're hurting me.
It's your fault, damn rabbit!
Deflection of responsibility It's your fault, damn rabbit!
Deflection of responsibility I'll lock you up in the stable and make you die of loneliness!
It all started with you touching my slave!
This is getting annoying.
Hey, they're both tugging at Oz again!
He's my slave!
He's my master!
You're hurting me!
Somebody help!
Eques?!
Alice! Gil!
Sharon?
Sir Oz...
I saved you.
*Heart Pounding*
Like mother, like daughter...
Lacie...
That would mean Elliot is also...
Everyone's passed out.
Yep. I feel like sleeping, too.
Oh, really?!
Except you're not drunk at all, right?
You're really an annoying little brat, you know that?
I'll take that as a compliment.
But why would you pretend to be drunk?
- Well I had to. Otherwise...
- You want your reward, you filthy pigs? - Well I had to. Otherwise...
...it would have ruined the mood.
That's a first.
I didn't think you would ever be considerate of anyone or anything.
You want your ass kicked, Oz?
I think it's pretty nice if you can hold your alcohol better than others.
There's nothing good about it.
I can't get drunk no matter how hard I try.
But that may be because of the constant tension I subject myself to...
...as a means for my desire to stay alive.
Sorry.
About what?
I don't know...
What's the matter?
I actually find it creepy when I see you act meek.
You're probably right.
What are you saying?!
Don't insult my master, Break!
Here he comes again.
Would you stop with the heckling?
I'm not heckling anyone...
Master, there's something I...
...want to say to you.
Sure.
Please...
Take better care of yourself.
It makes me so sad when you don't...
First the heckling and now a crying drunk.
He's so predictable, it's not even fun anymore.
I, me, um...
Umm, which one do I use again?
How about taking this opportunity to use "Little ol' me?"
How about the royal "we" or "Mighty Me" or " Gilly?"
Stop it, Break.
Are you all right, Gil?
Yes, Master Oz.
I haven't heard that in a while!
Gil, I'm sorry.
I made you shoulder a really heavy weight all this time.
From now on, I'll try to shoulder that weight on my own.
So I won't have to lean on you just to stand up.
What are you talking about, Oz?
I want to start by trying to learn.
About myself. About everyone.
So tell me when you get the chance.
About you and the Nightrays. About what happened over these 10 years.
Well, good night.
Hey, Oz!
Oh, my.
I don't know what happened, but he's acting more his age now.
You should be happy.
Maybe you won't have to agonize over him so much anymore!
Yeah...
Now I won't...
Don't take what Elliot said personally.
He knows you didn't do anything to him directly.
But how do I put this...
Elliot can be...
That's it. He's intelligent, but he has the personality of an idiot.
Oh?
I'll see you again, Oz Vessalius.
Yeah!
See you again, Reo.
See you again, Elliot!
That's right. There will be a day when we'll meet again.
I have to move on just a bit more...
...so I can stand tall and make sure he won't yell at me.
I have so many things I want to talk with him about.
I still need to ask him more about this tune.
You better be prepared for me, Elliot.
Elliot?
I just felt a little dizzy.
Is it that dream again?
The building was burning and there were dead people everywhere...
I stood in a pool of red...
And my sword was covered in their blood...
I can't stand this dream anymore...

Knowledge is power!
My name is Alice.
What nightmare is this?
You looked into my past, Lord Barma.
To know can also breed fear from within.
First, let us take a look...
At the "proof" you are Kevin Legnard!
