Roswaal:  "You made sure it’d be just us at a time like this ’cause you have something to talk about, right?"

Subaru:  "—Teacher was assuredly alone without a single relative. That of course includes any sisters. She had none save Beatrice she could call her own daughter. I know this better than anyone."
human
Subaru:  Subaru sharpened his gaze and pressed the point as Roswaal cut straight to a rather uncomfortable topic, talking about Echidna—for the issue of the Echidna at the tomb concerned them both. Roswaal’s opinion was the same as Beatrice’s from back at the tomb--namely, that the remains in the coffin were those of Echidna, and the being who had imposed the Trials on Subaru and Emilia was someone else. It was difficult for him to nod and accept the being he met was a fake. That Echidna—the Witch of Greed in the castle of dreams, along with the other Witches of the Deadly Sins—was unmistakably real. There was no way to decipher the mystery as the tomb had lost all functionality, and there was no way Subaru would ever meet her again.

Subaru:  "So the woman inside the coffin was your goal. There’s that cursed seal, too. You…"

Roswaal:  "—My objective was to be reunited with Teacher, young Subaru. However, please do not misunderstand."
gpt
Subaru:  "Misunderstand what? You and Beatrice… You met her… You met Echidna. Now you can…"
human
Roswaal:  "What I desire is a reunion with blood flowing through her, a soul resting in her—a living, breathing Teacher. It is all I desire. It is my greatest wish, and I cannot relinquish it."
gpt
Subaru:  Subaru blinked hard not only at Roswaal’s dreamlike speech but also at the content of his words. "But that means…bringing her back from the dead. Do you have a…way to do that?"
human
Roswaal:  "No, not a theory that would work upon ordinary souls. But because this is Teacher, a way remains. The liberation of the Sanctuary…the recovery of her remains…these are but preliminary steps."
gpt
Subaru:  So that was why he wanted the Sanctuary liberated. Roswaal had achieved his own objective. But as for a method to revive the dead, and one that would work only upon the Witch in the coffin…
human
Roswaal:  "So as to not give rise to misunderstandings, I wish to be clear about this one thing, young Subaru."
gpt
Subaru:  "…Say it."

Roswaal:  "The book of knowledge has burned to ash, denying me my promised future. As I am bound by the cursed seal, I cannot continue any of the machinations I have attempted to date—however, I have no intention of giving up on Teacher because of this." Tilting his glass to his lips, Roswaal spoke those implacable words without crossing gazes. It was more than enough to send a shiver of fear through Subaru, supposedly in an advantageous position now that Roswaal had given up on his secret plotting.
