Looks like this'll be a three-parter, one for each day I played the game. The log gets too long otherwise.
ToD: Director's Cut Summary (1/3)
The game starts with a voiceover by Leon.
"My childhood.
I'd look up, and she'd always give me a kind smile.
Time passed, and I grew. There was no longer any need for that smile.
Only, I didn't yet share that point of view.
My father was indifferent to me.
So I wanted to quickly grow into an adult that no longer had to rely on him.
I only had two wishes.
Everything was for the sake of her and independence..."
Hugo's Manor/Darilsheid
Leon finds Marian in the drawing room and says that he doesn't have any missions today. So he thought he'd stay at the house and take it easy. Marian teases him that it wouldn't be right for her to spend the day with a person as young as Emilio.
Leon: What are you talking about? There isn't that much of a difference in our ages.
Marian: I'm happy that you say that, but... It's not just the age difference, right?
Leon: But...
A knight bursts in, saying that he has a mission for Leon: a couple of criminals have been located. Leon snaps at him, saying, "Can't you handle a couple of criminals yourself?" and the knight says "Well, that's what the commander thought so too, but Master Hugo insisted that you be a part of the mission."
Knight: Their names are Rutee Katret and Mary Argent.
Leon: Rutee... Katret?
He goes on to explain that they also have a new person with them. And Rutee seems to have a strange sword.
Leon: Did you hear, Chal?
Chal: Yes, I was listening, young master. That "mysterious sword"... is probably a Swordian.
Leon: Swordians other than Chal and the criminal Rutee Katret, is it...
Chal: But isn't... Rutee young master's only sister?
Leon: No, it's not a sure thing yet. Since I've never met her.
They decide to get ready and leave.
Leon: Do you really think the sword Rutee has is a Swordian?
Chal: I wonder. Until we see it, I can't really say anything.
Leon: We might be meeting one of your comrades. Aren't you happy?
Chal: [embarrassed] Among the Swordians, I'm the youngest. I wonder what it'll be like if we're together again, so...
Leon: [laughs] Even Swordians are really human after all, huh.
As he exits the house, he finds Marian in the front garden.
Marian: Emilio, are you leaving?
Leon: I can't afford to be late.
Marian: In that case, I'll prepare dinner and wait for you.
Leon: Then, I'll be going.
Marian: Emilio, please wait. [checks to see if anyone else is around]
Leon: What is it, Marian?
Marian: Ne, Emilio. It's bothering me, so I wonder if I can say something.
Leon: S, sure...
Marian: The way you talked to that soldier earlier wasn't exactly full of praise. You're a superior officer and you're younger than most. If you take that kind of attitude, no one will connect with you.
Leon: But, that was... he...
Marian: [gently] He what? Please be aware your own position and surroundings.
Leon: [cowed] I get it. Next time I'll be careful.
Marian: If you understand, then I'm glad I said something. Now, take care.
Afterwards, we get a skit.
Chal: As usual, young master can't hold up his head in front of Marian.
Leon: [sulkily] Even though I'm not a child anymore...
Chal: That's right. I think you have to get up to speed! When this mission is over, you should come out and say it! Burst it out!
Leon: Chal... if it came down to it, who do you think I'd pick, you or Marian?
Chal: ...eeeh!
Leon: [amused] It was a joke. Don't take it seriously.
Later:
Leon: I'll be fighting three people... I wonder if it'll be a difficult fight?
Chal: Young master, are you nervous?
Leon: Don't be stupid! There's no way I'd be nervous.
Chal: Of course! There's no one who can wield a Swordian like the Young master! [sparkles]
Leon: Exactly. I'll show them the difference between thieving Masters and myself. Let's go, Chal!
Chal: Yes!
Harmentz
Leon arrives in Harmentz.
Leon: Oi, where are the wanted criminals?
Jobs: Aah?
Will: L-Leon-sama!
Jobs: Well, well, so this is the master swordsman? [sarcastic] Wow, what an early arrival.
Will: O-oi...
Leon: With this kind of guy around, even though I promised Marian...
Chaltier: Being aware of your position and surroundings. You're not forgetting Marian's words, right, young master.
Leon: Hmph, I know.
Will & Jobs: ?
Leon: So, could you enlighten me as to the situation?
Will: When the criminals exited the inn earlier, we surrounded them.
Jobs: [SUPER SARCASTIC] So as you see, there was no reason for the master swordsman to trouble himself to come out here.
This is followed by the usual: Stahn thinking it's all a misunderstanding and trying to talk it out, and the soldiers being unimpressed.
Leon: (... so that's Rutee and her Swordian...)
Chal: I can hear voices... that's Atwight. ... eh... and Dymlos, too?!
Leon: What? It couldn't be... another Swordian?
Chal: Haa, oh no. I've always been bad at dealing with him.
Leon: Is that it... there are two Swordians...
As they're talking, Stahn defeats the soldiers.
Jobs: No way... that's ridiculous.
Leon: Heh. What out-of-practice, rusty soldiers we have here.
Jobs: N-not at all! Now's when we'll display our specialty!
Leon: Aah, if you say so, it must be true. But the fact is, your men were defeated by only three people. I'll take it from here.
The usual scene plays, and Leon defeats the others. He orders them carried off to Darilsheid.
Leon: ...
Leon: Rutee Katret, huh. She really does resemble me. But honestly, I'm relieved. I wondered what I'd do if she was an opponent I couldn't hate at all.
Leon: ...
Leon: ... what's wrong, Chal? You've been quiet since earlier.
Chal: [SIGHS] Yeah, that's right. Because we had to fight against Dymlos and Atwight. And to make matters worse, we totally beat their masters... I'm thinking what they'll say to me after this... Haa...
Walt: [walks up to them] Er, pardon me.
Leon: Who are you?
Walt: I'm the mayor of this village, Walt. Wellll, you really are strong, aren't you. Taking care of that greedy witch Rutee so easily. I suppose you must be a renowned swordsman from somewhere, but...
Leon: My name and details don't matter. .... your business.
Walt: Eh?
Leon: Hurry and tell me your business. If you won't, get out of my sight.
Walt: Well, um, I haven't been given the reward money yet...
Leon: I see. You were the military's informant. Don't worry. Someone from the military will deliver the reward.
Walt: I-is that so. Then, in that case... [FLEES]
Chal: What's wrong, young master? All of a sudden you're in a bad mood.
Leon: It's because I've always been surrounded people like that, who try to flatter me. You know I get fed up with it.
Chal: Yeah, that's true. But holding them at such a distance is...
Leon: Whatever. The mission is over. Let's go back to Darilsheid.
Skits on the way out!
Chal: Your father Hugo-sama... he must know that Rutee is his daughter, right?
Leon: I don't know... But from what I heard when receiving the mission in the manor... Hugo probably knows, but...
Chal: Could it be... he was wanting to give the daughter he never stopped searching for and her little brother a reunion?
Leon: I don't think there's any way he was thinking that...
Chal: ... aah.
Leon: Since earlier, all you've been doing is sighing. Get a grip, Chal.
Chal: But, young master, I don't want to have to do that again!
Leon: ....?
Chal: Dymlos and Atwight... back then in the unit, whether they were together or not, there was jealousy... If Atwight was in a pinch, Dymlos would come running from wherever...
Basically, they were so lovey-dovey that they were disgusting to be around. They'd be making eyes at each other across the room with Chal caught in between, and stuff like that. HE DOESN'T WANT TO GO THROUGH IT AGAIN.
Leon: [slightly stunned] ... is that so...
Chal: [breathing heavily] ... YES.
Seinegald Castle
Just as Leon enters the castle, he runs into Hugo.
Hugo: Are you just returning? You took longer than I thought you would.
Leon: [bows] My apologies, Hugo-sama.
Hugo: i heard the news. It seems you've recovered two Swordians.
Leon: Yes.
Hugo: His majesty will also hear of this. Bring the captured criminals in front of the king.
Leon: Bringing common thieves before the king...?
Hugo: They have committed other crimes as well.
Leon: Even the other crimes I've heard of are only blackmail and things of that degree...
Hugo: You've heard of this as well. The flying dragon accident the other day.
Leon: You mean the flying dragon that was overtaken by monsters mid-flight, the news of which has been suppressed...? You can't mean they...?
Hugo: That's right. His majesty and Sir Dryden will be charging them with that offense.
Leon: But that flying dragon was the fault of the monsters and had nothing to do with them!
Hugo: What is it, Leon? It sounds as though you're siding with the criminals.
Leon: No, that's not...
Hugo: The Swordian the man has. That was what was being transported on the flying dragon.
Leon: Man...? That blond man? Then it has nothing to do with the woman...
Hugo: What are you saying? Those people worked together. Isn't it only natural to think they're associated?
Leon: ......
Hugo: At any rate, the king will speak. They are considering the possibility the outcome will be capital punishment.
Leon: Capital punishment...! [ducks his head] ....... .... Hugo-sama, do... do you know? The names of the prisoners.
Hugo: ... yes, I know.
Leon: If that's the case, then the woman with the Swordian...!
Hugo: That Swordian is something that originally belonged to me. To think that it would be returned to me... I must thank you, Leon.
Leon: A person like you...!
Hugo: [to a soldier] Hey, come here!
Soldier Yessir!
Hugo: Transport the criminals from the dungeon. I'm counting on you.
Soldier: Understood. [goes down the stairs]
Hugo: That's how it is. Bring the criminals before the king. You understand, don't you, Leon. [he leaves for the throne room]
Leon: Hugo, that bastard...! He did know Rutee was his daughter after all.
Chal: But why is he doing this?
Leon: It's how he is. Without a calculated plan, it would be difficult to think of arresting Rutee. Probably because she has a Swordian, he used me... .... and also....
The scenes in the dungeon and the castle are the same. In fact, nothing changes at all until they're on their way back from Straylize.
Darilsheid
This time, we follow Leon when he runs off to get a boat. He runs to the castle, where he encounters Hugo.
Leon: Hugo-sama!
Hugo: Hoh, from your appearance, it looks like something happened at Straylize Sanctuary.
Chal: You told Stahn and the others we were going to go report to Hugo-sama, but.... if possible, it would've been better not to run into him.
Hugo: What is it, Leon? Tell me the situation.
Leon: Tch... [screen fades to black, Leon explains]
Hugo: You let the culprit escape? Honestly, you've embarrassed me.
Leon: What...!
Chal: Please control yourself, young master.
Hugo: Well, in that case, I'll inform the king of this matter.
Leon: No thank you. I will talk to the king myself.
Hugo: You, who failed this mission, think that you can talk to the king alone? Moreover, this situation is no longer a problem for Seinegald alone.
Leon: No, I will explain things to the king myself.
Hugo: ... if you do that, I don't mind, but... really, it would be better if you let me help...
Leon: What are you saying? I don't need your help! I can do this sort of thing without relying on you!
Chal: Y-young master, what are you...
Leon: Keh...
Leon runs past Hugo and into the castle.
Leon: [bows] Excuse my rudeness, your majesty.
King: Leon, what happened with God's Eye?
Leon: Regarding that matter, I have a pressing request of you.
King: All right, what is it?
Leon: The conclusion is that God's Eye was stolen by one of the clergy members.
King: What?! That Hugo. Is this what comes of listening to his advice? I knew it was a mistake to just leave this to a child. [stands up] Dryden. Call for Dryden, now!
Leon: Your majesty!
King: Leon, your work is done here. Stand down.
Leon: Please listen!
King: I do not have time for excuses. The situation must be quickly resolved quickly.
Leon: Your majesty, it is not my intention to make excuses. However, I also do not intend to give up.
King: What?
Leon: The culprit is High Priest Greybaum. At present, he is bringing God's Eye to Kalvalais.
King: Kalvalais?!
Leon: In addition, I returned with a witness to Greybaum's crime. If your majesty calls for a ship to be prepared, I will absolutely bring back God's Eye!
King: Hmm... If you're willing to say that much... all right. I will call for a ship. However, it will take a bit of time. I trust that will not be a problem?
Leon: No. I swear that I shall not disappoint you, your majesty.
Chal: You did it, young master!
Leon: Yeah.
King: I have one question...
Leon: What is it?
King: Has Hugo been informed of this?
Leon: ... why is that?
King: I am the one asking the questions. Answer me.
Leon: ... yes, he has been informed.
King: In that case, I'm relieved. But why isn't he with you? Honestly, leaving this all to you. What an irresponsible man.
Chal: That's... cruel. Young master did it alone, but...
Leon: Chal, shut up.
Chal: But!
Hugo: Your majesty, please don't decide upon my character while I'm not present.
Leon: (Hugo...!)
King: Ohh, Hugo. Why weren't you here?
Hugo: Though he may be foolish, I have a parent's responsibility to Leon to help him out.
Leon: ...!
Hugo: I heard the situation from Leon, so I went and made ready a ship that could soon depart.
King: Ohh, how like Hugo. Is there nothing you can't do? Leon, as I said before, my ship would take time to prepare. Be thankful for your father's affection, and be sure to quickly capture the culprit and bring back God's Eye.
Leon: .... understood. As soon as the ship is prepared, I will depart.
Afterwards:
Chal: ... Young Master... don't let what the king said affect you that much.
Leon: ....
Chal: It's okay. I know how strong you really are! When this mission is over, the king will definitely praise you!
Leon: ... yeah... ... sure...
Leon wants to stop by the manor before they leave.
Hugo's Manor
Marian: Welcome home! You're back early.
Leon: No, I'm still in the middle of the mission.
Marian: Is that so. In that case, how about some tea?
Leon: Thank you. But I have to leave soon, so... I don't know for sure, but I probably won't be coming back to the manor for quite a while.
Marian: All right. And how long do you think it will be?
Leon: I don't know. It could be over quickly, or it could take a while.
Marian: [turns to make sure not one else is around, then moves closer] Raise your head and cheer up, Emilio.
Leon: Eh?
Marian: Something bad happened, didn't it. ...something to do with your father, too.
Leon: W-what are you saying? ...that's not...
Marian: It's been that way since you were a child. Whenever it has to do with your father, you make that face. Hugo-sama... your father's name is too great, and brings too many distasteful memories, but... but even so, you are you.
Leon: Marian... but I'm...
Marian: ...... Emilio, if things get too difficult... how about returning to your old name?
Leon: ...!! What are you saying, Marian? I absolutely can't return to my old name!
Marian: Ne, Emilio. I remember the day you decided to change your name. Up until then, you probably had a lot of hardships... but I thought you did well. So...
Leon: Marian, please don't say that.
Marian: Emilio...
Leon: It's all right... it seems like I've forgotten what it is I want to do. I want to show everyone that I'm not just Hugo's son -- I'm me. For that sake... I'm Leon Magnus!
Marian: I understand. It's not someone else's decision. It's yours. If that's the case, don't hang your head anymore. Do your best, Emilio. And if things get difficult, it's okay to cry. If you do, you'll feel better.
Leon: There's no way I'd cry...
Marian: [giggles] Emilio, what about the time?
Leon: Aah. I'll have to be going.
Marian: Take care.
Leon: [starts to leave, then turns back] I'm going, Marian. And soon, my mission will be over and I'll come back home. [leaves]
Marian: Despite everything, you've grown up... Time passes quickly, doesn't it.
On The Boat
Chal: Iyaaaaaa, the ocean's so vast~ it feels good!
Leon: ...
Chal: It's nice to journey on a boat. You should enjoy yourself, young master!
Leon: ... Chal, this isn't a sightseeing trip. We have to take back God's Eye at all costs. Try not to forget that.
We get sepia toned images of Hugo and Leon in front of the King, then him saying goodbye to Marian.
Chal: Ne, young master, is it okay if I ask you something?
Leon: What is it?
Chal: Aren't you going to tell Rutee that you're her little brother? Now that you know for sure.
Leon: I don't like her. So it's not important to mention.
Chal: But earlier, when Hugo talked of Rutee like that...
Another sepia-toned image.
Chal: Young master, didn't you get angry?
Leon: I was just angry because it was him. How to say it... maybe I should say it's because I caught a glimpse of his true feelings towards me.
Chal: Is that it... huh?
Leon: ... what is it, Chal...?
Chal: Dymlos is calling. Let's return to the cabin.
Leon: [turns green] ...urgh.
Chal: Aah, that's right, Young Master gets horrible motion sickness!
Leon: ..........
Chal: W-what should I do? Should we go back inside?
Leon: Chal...
Chal:Leon: You go back alone...
Chal: Eh...
The scenes resume as usual until after Radislowe.
Cherik
We follow Leon out of Balk's office.
Leon: That Stahn! He keeps pissing me off.
Chal: Why do you hate Stahn so much?
Leon: You should be able to tell, Chal! Because of his crime on the flying dragon and his government service, it's obvious he's trying to get friendly with me! He's only thinking of my position as Hugo's son.
Chal: I really don't think that's the case with Stahn, but...
Leon: Hmph. Eventually, he'll turn out the same as all the others. [a man approaches] Who the hell are you? ... is what I'd say, but it's useless with the people here.
???: Mister, are you looking for something? Don't you want some information?
Leon: Information?
Chal: Young master, let's stop this. He looks suspicious.
Leon: Hurry up and tell me. What the hell do you know?
Information Broker: Hold on a second there. You don't think I'd give it up for free?
Leon: Heh.... that's the way it is. Name your price.
Chal: YOUNG MASTER?!
Information Broker: Is it okay to say that kind of thing? It might be false info.
Leon: If it's from someone as "trustworthy" seeming as you, I'm not worried. Besides, I have more confidence in it than free information.
Information Broker: I get it. Don't worry, my information isn't fake.
[SCREEN FADES OUT]
When it comes back, the others are leaving Balk's office. The scene progresses as usual.
Kalviola
While everyone else stays at the inn, Leon goes to walk around Kalviola for a bit. When they get to the roof of one of the buildings, Leon rests his arms on the wall and leans over.
Chal: What is it, young master?
Leon: Hey, Chal. Don't you think the people of this country are really impressive? They live well in a desert like this. I don't think I could manage it.
Chal: That's definitely true. If they didn't cooperate, they wouldn't be able to live.
Leon: ...... [he straightens up] Chal, I've said it a bunch of times already, but I have to complete this mission no matter what.
Chal: Yes. It has a special importance to you, doesn't it?
Leon: That's right. If I do this, then I'm not just Hugo's son... I'll be Leon Magnus, a separate person. And if I do that, then...
Chal: ... you want to meet with Marian?
Leon: [embarrassed] What are you asking, Chal...?
Chal: Sorry.
Leon: ... about that question earlier, even I don't know.
Chal: Earlier...? You mean the one about living in the desert?
Leon: Yeah. Everyone cooperating to live... I wonder if that's true. Living in this harsh desert is unnatural, don't you think? My thoughts are a little different than Chal's. Isn't it that they've abandoned their burdens in order to live?
Chal: Abandoned...?
Leon: Yeah, that's it. That's why they're strong. Or is it the opposite. Only the strong have survived.
Chal: Why are you saying...?
Leon: I don't know... I just have the feeling I'll have to make a choice like that someday too... When I think I might make the wrong choice, I...
Chal: Young master. It's okay. I'm sure you'll make the right choice. And besides that, I'll be with you. So young master should do whatever young ,aster thinks of as right. Even if you do make the wrong choice, I'll carry half the regret.
Leon: Half of it, huh... I guess I'm saved.
There are two skits here, but Chal is difficult to understand in both of them. I'll come back later, I guess.
Kalviola Straylize Temple
Scenes are the same until Stahn gets petrified and Leon runs off after Greybaum.
Leon: Dammit! Where did Greybaum go?! With that big of a lens... it could only be moved though the front entrance.
Chal: Young Master, is it really all right?
Leon: Grr...
Chal: You understand, right?!
Leon: Shut up, Chal...
Chal: But at this rate... Stahn and the others will be!
Leon: Yeah, I know. I know, okay! But right now the most important thing is returning God's Eye!
Chal: But...
Leon: ... even right now, Greybaum is escaping! Stop talking and let's hurry!
They make it outside, but...
Leon: This is...!
Chal: It looks like Greybaum escaped from here after all.
Leon: Dammit, can we get him in time?!
He runs to the entrance to the city.
Leon: Where did he go...?!
Chal: I can't see him anywhere...
Leon: Tch...!
Chal: It's regrettable, but there was no foreseeing it. Young master, let's go back. I'm worried about Stahn and the others.
Leon: [he starts walking back, then stops] ... no, it's no good. If I have to worry about burdens, I'll never complete this mission.
Chal: Eh?
Leon: This sort of thing will definitely happen again. I'm discarding them, Chal!
Chal: Eh, but...! Is that really all right?!
Leon: [turns to leave the city, but stops when he sees Balk and his subordinate] Balk?!
Balk: If it isn't Leon! So you did come to Kalviola after all. So, did you find what you were looking for?
Leon: .... no. We found it inside of the sanctuary, but the culprit snatched it away again.
Balk: Is that so... which reminds me, what happened to the people with you?
Leon: They're still in the sanctuary. Fighting with monsters.
Balk: And you're going after the culprit?
Leon: Yeah, that's what I intend.
Balk: All right, if that's the case, I'll help too. [turns to his subordinate] Go with Leon to pursue the culprit. Additionally, contact the mercenaries outside the city and tell them to come to the sanctuary.
Subordinate: I understand. What about you, Balk-sama?
Balk: The mercenaries and I will go rescue Leon's comrades.
Leon: Stop it. Those people are no longer necessary to the mission. That's not something that'll change.
Balk: Even if that's true, it's not like I can just abandon them, right? [starts heading inside the city]
Leon: Why? You live in this desert, you so you should understand! Do you intend to become a victim yourself by rescuing a burden?!
Balk: It's true what you say... but my way of thinking is different. If someone becomes a victim, then there's no point to the foundation I've built. I want to think that there doesn't have to be a reason to save people.
Leon: There doesn't have to be a reason...?
Balk: Yeah.
Leon flashes back to Stahn saving him from the monster.
Balk: Well, I'm going. You be careful, too.
Leon: Please, wait... I'll come, too.
Balk: It's okay to let the culprit go?
Leon: What I do is my business. Besides that, if we don't hurry...
Balk: [to his subordinate] After you've contacted the mercenaries, collect information on the escaped culprit.
Subordinate: Sir. [leaves]
Balk: Then, let's go. Don't expect anything from the mercenaries.
Leon: Heh. If you're in trouble, I'll save you.
Back to where the rest of the party is still fighting.
Rutee: All right, this guy's the-- huh?
Leon: [runs in] This one looks like the last. Let's go!
Rutee: Aah! What are you doing, stealing my line!
There's a battle with one last basilisk.
Rutee: Hey, where did you go off to?! And besides that, why is that person with you?
Leon: Forget that, is Stahn okay?
Philia: If he doesn't return to normal...
Rutee: H-hey, don't say that sort of thing, Philia.
Leon: Whatever, just hurry and use a Panacea Bottle!
Philia: Y-yes!
When Phlia uses the panacea bottle, Stahn starts to fall over, and Leon catches him.
Leon: Stahn! [shakes him] Oi, Stahn. Wake up, Stahn! ...!
Rutee: Hey... gimme a break. Stahn, please wake up!
Rutee: Oh no...
Leon: ... he's sleeping.
Everyone: ...
Scenes continue as normal.
Boat
Chal: Young master, are you all right?
Leon: Yeah, probably-- urgh!
Chal: Look out into the distance! Come on, the distance.
Leon: ...
Leon's seasickness gets the better of him for a minute, but he eventually recovers.
Leon: [breathing heavily] ... I'm feeling better.
Chal: Are you really all right? Why don't you rest inside for a bit.
Leon: Hey, Chal... Since we left Kalvalais, I've been thinking...
Chal: About... Stahn and the others?
Leon: Yeah... I'm honestly confused.
Chal: Isn't it a good thing to have sincere people around you?
Leon: I... know that. But until now, it's just always been me and Chal. The two of us were able to do everything. When I was a child and met you, it was then that I really began to live.
Chal: [embarrassed] That's an exaggeration!
Leon: No, Chal. That's what I really think. So, when I think of them as friends, and then you...
Chal: .Thank you. You've been worried about me. But that's not the case, young master! I'm happy for you.
Leon: Happy...?
Chal: Until now, young master's dreams have been too small.
Chal: You've wanted to surpass Hugo-sama. You've wanted to be with Marian. But just that won't do! Wanting to go trips with friends, or go shopping with them. That kind of thing trivial is good too.
Leon: No, but...
Chal: When I was a human, I wasn't able to do that kind of thing. Because of the war. Dymlos and the others weren't friends, they were war comrades. Besides, if young master really wants, I'll be there too to have fun with.
Leon: [laughs] Honestly, what an awful explanation.
Noischat
Once more, we stay with Leon this time when the others go off (this time for ice candy). We get to see him just standing around in Elaine's mansion. First, he keeps almost falling asleep. Then he practices his swordsmanship.
Leon: Chal, isn't it a bit hot?
Chal: [sighs] I can't tell if it is or not, young master.
Leon: Hmph, in any case, I'm thirsty.
Maid: In that case, should I get you some tea?
Leon: Is it iced?
Maid: Ah, n-no, the only thing I can bring out quickly is hot tea...
Leon: Damn, even though I want something cold. Hey, Chal.
Chal: ............
Maid: If you want something cold, there's the city's ice candy...
Leon: But there isn't any in this house, right?
Maid: Right... But I could quickly go buy some...
Leon: Wait, it'd be bad if there wasn't anyone left in the house. But if I left here and Elaine came back, it'd be troublesome...
Maid: Um, if it's all right, if Elaine-sama comes back, I'll tell her that you were here. And then she could wait for you and the others to come back.
Leon: In that case, it's not a problem. I'll step out for a moment.
Maid: Yes, take care.
Chal: ... well, there's no helping it, huh.
Skit:
Chal: Young master, young master.
Leon: What is it? You're so loud.
Chal: I wonder what ice candy tastes like! It sounds good!
Leon: Is that right... [looks depressed] Chal can't eat it.
Chal: So, young master. If it's good, you have to tell me!
Leon: All right, I will.
When Leon gets to the vendor...
Ice Candy Vendor Welcome! What flavor do you want?
Leon: ........
Vendor Sir...?
Leon: ..............
Vendor Sir!
Leon: Ah, no, it's not that I particularly want one...
Chal: Young Master, stop being embarrassed and just buy one!
Leon: [blushes] A-ahh... that's right. Excuse me... I'll have...
Girl [SCREAMS]
Leon: [turns] What?! [A girl is being menaced by a monster.]
Vendor: A-a monster!
Chal: Young master, let's help her!
Leon defeats the monster.
Girl: T-thank you! [runs off]
Chal: I'm worried about the state of the city. Let's go take a look.
They head back to the city proper, where they see people fleeing. Leon stops a man.
Leon: Hey, you. What's going on?!
Man: I-I don't know! All of a sudden, monsters started coming up out of the ocean!
Leon: About how many of them?
Man: Swarms!
Leon: Dammit, where did Stahn and the others go?! I won't be able to take care of this alone!
Chal: ...fufu.
Leon: What are you laughing about at a time like this, Chal?
Chal: Ah, no, that's right. I wonder where everyone went?
Leon: Besides that, I'm worried about Elaine. It'd be good if was safe, but...
Man: If you're talking about Elaine-san, I just saw with some people at coliseum.
Leon: Really?
Man: Like I'd lie about that! Can I go, already?!
Leon: All right, go. [man runs off]
Chal: Do you think the people Elaine was with could be Stahn and the others?
Leon: I hope that's the case. All right, let's go to the coliseum.
Scenes continue as usual.
Meanwhile, in the land of skits:
Chal: By the way, that girl in the park you saved from the monster... [hearts] Don't you think she liked you?
Leon: What are you saying?!
Chal: I mean, you were really cool back there! You skillfully took care of the monster and left without even giving her your name!
Leon: That really wasn't my intention.
Chal: But that was really cool, wasn't it? [sparkles] Stahn definitely couldn't have done it! As expected from Young Master!
Leon: [embarrassed] That's enough, Chal!
The plot continues with no extra scenes until they're on the boat to Aquaveil.
Chal: Aquaveil really is far away after all, isn't it.
Leon: Now that you mention it, before you met me, Chal, you were in Aquaveil...
Chal: That's right. But to honest I don't have many good memories.
Leon: .... won't you tell me?
Chal: [nervous laugh] I don't think it's a very nice story. But besides that, in Noischat, you and dealt with Stahn and the others really well!
Leon: [blushes] Don't change the subject.
Chal: Mou, don't say that. Young master cooperated with everyone! It looked like lots of fun.
Leon: ... heh, don't be stupid. But you know, Chal... there's also not very nice things about me.
Chal: What?
Leon: Rutee.
Chal: What do you mean?
Leon: That woman... she's my older sister, but she's hard to handle... there's no helping it...
Chal: Young Master...?
Leon proceeds to have another attack of seasickness, and makes Chal promise he won't tell the others about it, which is when Stahn comes out to talk about "guy things."
Sea Cave
We follow the others when Stahn and Rutee fall into the hole. At first, Leon sighs over their stupidity, but then he suggests going back to Shiden to get some rope.
Leon: Oi, are they okay?
Philia: Yes, I can hear their voices. It seems they're somehow safe.
Leon: What a troublesome woman.
Philia: Leon-san, please don't say that kind of thing. We have to find a way to help them...
Leon: At this depth, it would be difficult for either them to climb up for for us to climb down. We should return to Shiden and get some rope.
Philia: Eh? Ah, yes...
A skit:
Leon: ... those idiots... Why am I this worried... ... I don't need this...
Philia: What's wrong, Leon-san? Since earlier, you've looked a bit...
Leon: It's nothing!
Chal: Young Master, I'm sure Stahn and Rutee are all right. So calm--
Leon: WHO'S WORRIED ABOUT THOSE TWO?! I'm not thinking about that at all!
On the way to Shiden is when the infamous bath skit happens.
Philia: Chaltier-san and Leon-san really are close, aren't they?
Leon: Well, we've known each other for a long time.
Chal: [sparkles] Yeah, that's right. From the moment we wake up to the time we're in the bath, we're together!
Philia: E-even in the bath...
Leon: Chal, don't say random things!
Chal: Honestly, it's an example, an example.
Philia: [weakly> In the bath... [leaves]
Leon: If weird rumors get started, it's your fault, Chal.
They end up at the ruler of Shiden's (read: Johnny's dad's) house.
Assistant: Do you have some sort of business?
Philia: I'm sorry this is so sudden. We're searching for some rope.
Leon: If you have some, would you be willing to give it to us?
Assistant: Saying that kind of thing all of a sudden is troublesome. And looking at you, you're foreigners, aren't you...
Philia: .............
Leon: Wait a second, that doesn't have any bearing on this!
Johnny's Dad: Did something happen, guests?
Assistant: ! Master, weren't you going out?
Johnny's Dad: I don't mind, since we have foreign guests.
Philia: Thank you very much. The truth is...
[Fade to black for explanation.]
Johnny's Dad: I see, I see. I apologize for making you give a long explanation even though you're in a hurry.
Leon: Then, will you give us a rope?
Johnny's Dad: I believe there should be some at the harbor. [to the assistant] Sorry, but could you quickly get some?
Assistant: H-huh?! Yes... [goes to do so]
Johnny's Dad: By the way, are you folks from Seinegald?
Philia: Yes, you know a lot, don't know.
Leon: Oi, Philia!
Philia: Ah! I'm sorry, sir. Please forget what I just said.
Johnny's Dad: Previously, I would have had no choice but to arrest you, but... Ha ha ha. Don't worry.
Philia: I'm so sorry.
Assistant: I've brought it.
Philia: You've really saved us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Johnny's Dad: Good. Now, hurry to your friends.
Leon: Let's go, Philia.
The scene switches back to the cave.
Philia: Stahn-san, Rutee-san, are you all right?
Mary: We've brought you a rope. Grab hold!
And things continue as usual, save for an extra scene after the boss battle:
Chal: That's the biggest monster I've ever seen.
Leon: Heh. The size of the enemy doesn't matter.
Chal: Because Stahn, Rutee, and the others are with you... is it?
Leon: N-no! It's because of me!
