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.
even in the realm of death, all in

per cercare ogni tipo di conoscenza?
até no mundo dos mortos, apenas para
buscar todo o tipo de conhecimento?
