Subaru:  Subaru arrived without any forewarning.

Couple:  The two had welcomed him in and lent an ear to his request, but…

Couple:  “The young master returned to the main household with his liege, Lady Felt, and her family some two days ago. We can offer contact with him from our side, but…”

Subaru:  Just as he’d mentioned during his visit to the Crusch residence, Reinhard had left. Even though he remembered what Reinhard had said, Subaru had still clung to a slender thread of hope, but his pleas went unanswered. Even if he could reach Reinhard somehow, the distance from the royal capital to the main household of the Astrea family, and from there, the distance to the Mathers lands, was fatal. The odds of him joining their forces in time were despairingly low.

Subaru:  Subaru said his farewells to the elderly couple. Then, once he was out of sight of the mansion, he clutched his head.

Subaru:  “Roswaal and Reinhard are seriously useless, and right when I really need ’em, too…!”

Subaru:  This time, everything was going wrong. One prospective collaborator fell through after another, leaving Subaru truly at the end of his rope. If only his Return by Death restore point brought him back to the night when he’d parted ways with Reinhard—

Subaru:  “If you don’t have it, you don’t have it… Think, think, think, think. I don’t have strength, numbers, time—anything. Racking my brain is the only thing I can do.” Desperately turning the gears in his head, Subaru earnestly fought to come up with the next best plan of action. Now that he’d scratched Crusch and Reinhard off the list, Subaru had scant few cards left in his hand to pick from. Considering the circumstances, pleading with the Knights of the kingdom would no doubt produce the same results as his negotiation with Crusch. Besides, Subaru felt nothing but mistrust toward them. —At the very least, now that Crusch, someone he thought he had a good relationship with, had abandoned him, a storm of paranoia toward others brewed inside Subaru. Not even realizing how this was narrowing his already limited options, Subaru could think of only two other people. However, one meant bowing his head to “The Finest of Knights,” someone he hated more than the Knights in general, which was unthinkable. That left Subaru with a single candidate.
