Subaru:  "As if I’m gonna just stand by and let you end up like that…!" Taking a deep breath, Subaru ran while staying so low to the ground, he was practically licking the floor. Throwing open the door from which he had been hurled, he put his hand on the next door, opening one after another. The structural materials burned, and there was something like a bursting sound as the mansion where he spent so many irreplaceable days burned to the ground.

Subaru:  "—Gah, agh!" When he grasped the doorknob of a yet-unopened door, he suppressed the urge to cry out in pain from his scorched palm. However, in a short span of time, it was a pain he’d grown accustomed to feeling. The pain sharply stabbed him through his temples as he kicked the door open, racing inside.

Subaru:  He gasped, breathing in the aroma of old books and seeing an atmosphere disconnected from scalding heat—it was the archive of forbidden books. Realizing this, Subaru lifted his face.

Beatrice:  "You again. You do not know when to give up…!" The girl sitting on the stool was glaring straight at Subaru.

Subaru:  "Ha!! Damn right I don’t! I’ll come to spirit you away as many times as it takes! If you don’t like it, come with me already! Do that, and it’ll be the last time I barge in here like this!"

Beatrice:  "I have had enough of your flapping tongue! Do you even realize the mansion is on fire, I wonder?! If you do not flee this very instant, all that awaits you is your own fiery death!" The fifth time Subaru challenged her, Beatrice chewed him out, having deemed him an incorrigible fool. Fierce emotion rested in her blue eyes, her lips quavered, and her fingers dug into her mystic tome.

Beatrice:  "You… Have you not realized that you are out of opportunities to speak with Betty, I wonder? You are an unwelcome intruder… Why do you not understand this? !"

Subaru:  "Well, I don’t understand. As long as you’re not seriously rejecting me, I’ll come as many times as I want."

Beatrice:  "—!! Betty is rejec—!" She was so angry, so offended, that Beatrice’s words made it halfway out of her throat before she opened her eyes wide. She truly hadn’t realized the meaning of Subaru’s words. Beatrice’s own words, own actions, were contradicted by Subaru’s very presence.

Subaru:  "Beatrice, if you genuinely don’t want to see me, just hole up here in the archive."

Beatrice:  "What are you…? At present, can Betty take even a single step out of the archive, I wonder?! And yet—And yet, you barge in here all on your…"

Subaru:  "Nah, you’re wrong. If you were serious, I’d never have been able to reach this place over and over in such a short time like this. Your rejection is skin-deep."

Beatrice:  "—I, ah…" Beatrice grew even more confused. She was at a loss, unable to form the words with which to reject him. Passage was not all-powerful. That was simply fact.
