Subaru's first day in Roswaal's mansion begins for the fifth time. Determined to save everyone this time, he makes it a point to keep his best smile on his face in order to earn the trust of the mansion's staff. But although he works his hardest to make them like him, his body begins to have trouble keeping up with his heart's intentions. Soon Emilia is unable to bear the sight of him struggling any longer and takes an unexpected action...

The scattered pieces of the puzzle finally come together, and Subaru realizes for certain that the shaman who cursed him is in the village at the foot of the mountains. He heads there with Ram and Rem and makes sure all the villagers touch him so that he can find out, with Beatrice's help, who cast the curse. But the truth he finds is not what he expected, and he finds himself rushing toward the village again...
I'm not sure, but it doesn't 
smell like animals.
لستُ متأكّدة، لكن لا تبدو رائحة حيوانات
Weiß ich nicht.
Aber es riecht nicht nach Tier.
No estoy segura, pero no huele a animal.
No estoy segura, pero no huele a animal.
Pas une odeur de molosse,
en tout cas.
Non ne sono sicura, 
ma non è odore di animali.
Não tenho certeza, mas não
 parece o cheiro de animais.
Не уверена, но так звери не пахнут.
