Shiroe, Crusty, and Michitaka are invited to the palace by the Free Cities of Eastel.  The nobles of the land invite the three of them to various meetings and seem to be trying to find out more about Akihabara and the Round Table.  Crusty is attracted to the daughter of Duke Cowen, who is noble, beautiful, but seems somehow lazy...
Well, I think I'll eat some crab.
Okay, wird Zeit, ein paar
Krabben zu verputzen.
Hora de comer algo de cangrejo.
Et maintenant, moi,
je vais manger du crabe !
E ora, penso che mangerò 
anch'io un po' di granchio!
Hora de comer meus caranguejos.
Ну да ладно…
Пора бы и нам покушать крабиков!
