On the way to the Sanctuary, Subaru unwittingly finds himself invited to a witch's tea party, where the hostess introduces herself as Echidna, the Witch of Greed. Subaru is alarmed, but Echidna encourages him to sit and drink his tea before it gets cold. When he somehow makes it back outside after a conversation with Echidna, he finds Otto lying on the ground, battered and beaten. Then, before he even has a moment to assess the situation, Subaru himself is attacked.
What's this tea, anyway? It's not bad,
 but it's not good, either.
ما هذا الشاي على أي حال؟ إنه ليس
سيئاً، وليس جيداً أيضاً
Der ist weder gut noch schlecht.
Was ist das für ein Tee?
¿Y qué es esto?
No está ni bueno ni malo.
¿Y qué es esto?
No está ni bueno ni malo.
Il est passable.
C’est quel genre de thé ?
Che tè sarebbe questo? 
Non è cattivo, ma non lo definirei nemmeno buono.
Esse chá não é bom e
nem ruim, do que é isto?
Чай ни хороший, ни плохой, 
что это вообще?
