00:06yes ma'am that's my master i tried to conceal myself but you noticed me right away and how'd it
00:13go leave it to me your request has been relayed to its intended recipient but i must ask is there
00:20really any point in this who can say
00:54there's ruana i could get there through the forest behind our estate sure i told the king the people
01:02who live there can't even afford their daily bread but that's merely knowledge you find in a book
01:07a true villainess would head out and experience the situation for herself
01:12the only problem with that is there's no way i'll be able to get permission
01:17which means i have no choice but to sneak out
01:30what's there no wait i'm an actual villainess a dark forest isn't enough to scare me away
01:40the village of ruana is supposed to be protected by a magical barrier
01:44designed to keep heinous criminals from getting out
01:47but someone like me who has magic should be able to pass through it i hope
01:54there's the clearing
02:00so this is it that stench
02:09did someone pass out no that's a homeless person sleeping on the ground i can't believe how bad
02:15things have gotten here
02:19i'll be killed if i'm out of this noble
02:21young lady
02:25something's wrong his eyes
02:28there's nothing to be afraid of though it'd be wise of you not to draw your sword
02:32carelessly flaunting such things around here will only draw attention
02:37you're not a kid from the village are you tell me why are you here then
02:42i had to see ruana myself to understand it
02:47in that case come with me
02:58now then what is it that you would like to know
03:02first who are you exactly
03:04i go by the name of will
03:06i'm just will and nothing more
03:08my good young noble
03:10you can tell i'm a noble
03:12but you're blind
03:13oh i'm so sorry sir
03:15it's quite all right
03:17there are plenty of clues i can pick up on without seeing you
03:20such as the way you walk
03:21there was a slight difference in your footsteps between your left and right feet
03:26that suggests you are not centrally balanced
03:28which allowed me to infer that you carry a sword
03:32the rustling of your clothes told me that you were a woman
03:35not to mention the scent about you
03:37you're clean
03:38that stands out
03:39and the fact that you were able to enter this village from outside
03:42confirms you are a noble who possesses magic
03:45back when these eyes could still see
03:47i was surrounded by such people on a regular basis
03:51for that reason your presence is quite nostalgic to me
03:55you were a noble as well
03:57i actually worked at the royal palace
04:00but i quarreled with someone of high peerage there
04:02and incurred their wrath
04:04they took my sight
04:05and i was banished to this village
04:07but that happened long ago
04:09oh my
04:10why would they do something so awful
04:12who can say
04:13and what is your name
04:15that would be alicia
04:17a fine name
04:18i'll say this much
04:20just because a tradition has been long honored
04:22doesn't make it moral to practice in modern times
04:26why do you think it is that we study history
04:29to make today better than yesterday
04:32no matter how much you may learn from books
04:34it's meaningless if you don't use it to improve the future
04:39i can't believe such a wise person was thrown out of the palace
04:43do you hate the nobility
04:45i'd be lying if i said i didn't detest them
04:47however
04:49i knew the day would come when a member of high society would understand what i did
04:54and now i'd love to hear your story if you're willing to share it
04:57tell me
04:58what made you wish to see this place for yourself
05:01well i
05:01i just had to
05:04before i knew it
05:05i was telling him everything there was to tell about my dream of becoming a villainess
05:11he retained his calm expression while listening closely to my every word
05:16i will most certainly visit again
05:18you mustn't
05:19it's very dangerous
05:21no use in trying to stop me
05:24i know i'm making trouble for him but i don't want this to be the end
05:28i've never met anyone quite like him
05:31if you insist but only venture here at night
05:45and then
05:47two years passed
05:51growing up certainly isn't without its challenges
05:57i'm such a genius
05:58a total smarty pants
06:00for the past two years i've persisted in my studies
06:04practiced my swordsmanship
06:06and even continued to visit grandpa will
06:10only one thing has changed
06:11my brother albert turned 15
06:14and entered the magic academy
06:16where the ultimate game takes place
06:18i'm sure prince duke has met the heroine by now
06:21they may even feel the first sparks of love between them
06:24i can't wait until the day that i get to confront them as the villainess
06:29alicia
06:30do you feel like going into town with me today
06:33truly master eric
06:34i would love to go
06:35hang on a sec
06:37the tube you can't go alone
06:38i'll be going too
06:39so will alan be joining us
06:41i think he still has some studying to do
06:43oh i guess being twins doesn't mean you're joined at the hip huh
06:50is there anything you'd like to see
06:52huh
06:54oh right
06:55i'm friends with the person who runs that shop
06:59hello
07:00thanks for coming in
07:01well if it isn't eric and henry
07:03oh
07:04and who's this young lady
07:06my name's alicia
07:07oh
07:08you're henry's little sister right
07:10i'm paul and i own this store
07:12i have quite a collection of plants here
07:14well it's mainly medicinal herbs i suppose
07:16my family specializes in green magic
07:19then you must be a noble
07:22i'm just a carefree lower noble
07:25plants are truly amazing
07:27they have the power to cure illness
07:29heal the soul
07:30i was blessed to be born into an environment where i could learn all about them
07:34i wanted to use my knowledge to help people that were in need
07:37so i decided to open this store
07:39that's exactly what it means to make use of what you know
07:43this little guy here for example
07:45is that jaziah
07:46if you infuse one spoonful of it into liquid
07:48any high fever will come down in an instant
07:50it's a truly priceless herb
07:52you're familiar with it then
07:54i take it you must really like plants
07:56well it's only common knowledge
07:58if i didn't know such things i'd be remiss in my studies
08:02nailed it
08:03that's some top tier villainessing
08:05i'll never use hard work and humility to appeal to others
08:08after all
08:09that'd be too heroinesque for a baddie like me
08:14i see
08:15so it's common knowledge huh
08:16uh
08:17i guess i still need to study how proper villainesses behave
08:22well aren't you a clever young lady
08:24and eric
08:25you better not drag your feet or someone will steal her
08:28huh
08:29stop that
08:30i never let you date my little sister
08:33you three went to town together right
08:34did you at least have some fun ally
08:36i did
08:37lucky you
08:38a date with our alley
08:40what
08:41stop glaring at me
08:42say
08:43you really should go out with me next time
08:47do you have anywhere you want to go or anything you want to do
08:50anything i want
08:52there is one thing
08:53i would like to be given the test of swordsmanship
08:56oh boy
08:57alicia
08:58huh
08:58i want to see where my training has brought me
09:01but my father and brothers keep insisting that it is out of the question
09:05you think that's fair
09:06you're only ten years old and you're also a girl
09:09but you three were even younger than i am now when you took the test
09:13and who cares if i'm a girl
09:15when we said no we meant no
09:17if that's your decision then i'd like you to explain your reasoning
09:21just give up already
09:26sorry to shout
09:30i refuse to back down
09:32you've given me no good reason to
09:40that was pretty villainous-y if i do say so myself
09:53if we keep saying no she's going to do it on her own
09:57maybe even so we can't just tell her the real reason
10:01i demand you tell me now
10:04alicia
10:06stop treating me like a little baby
10:09understand you are still but a young girl
10:12and i am your father
10:14how could i not worry about my beloved adorable daughter
10:18but still
10:19here how about this
10:21when you turn 15 and join the academy
10:23we can discuss your goals and dreams for the future to your heart's content
10:26that a good compromise
10:29fine it's a promise
10:30please excuse me now
10:36i know all i've done is bought us a bit of time
10:40but
10:42our swordsmanship is already well beyond what a child should be capable of
10:46if i allow her to take the official test she'll garner a lot of attention be it for better or
10:51worse
10:52that is true
10:53i must assume that the five great noble families already know about what happened in the past
10:59i don't think we'll be able to keep it hidden for much longer
11:02but my dearest wish for her
11:04is that she have the chance to live out the rest of her youth as a normal child
11:09this is the worst
11:11they keep acting like i'm a baby
11:13i get that ten year olds are children but
11:16if i want to be the greatest villainess ever
11:18i can't afford to let any precious time go to waste
11:21i know
11:22i'll visit grandpa will and talk to him
11:25perhaps he can help me sort things out
11:31this is the first time i've visited him during the day
11:33i wonder if he'll even be at home
11:35don't you give me that shit
11:43is this the true face of ruana
11:46it's different than i imagined
11:49i had no idea since i've only come at night
11:53oh come on done already
11:59hey he's not getting back up
12:01guess he's dead then
12:02don't you pass out rat
12:05alicia
12:06i warned you not to come at daytime
12:09no please wake
12:10there's a little boy
12:12and what do you intend to do
12:14you're no more than a child yourself
12:24will he be all right
12:26i did what i could to treat him but it's not nearly enough
12:29how awful
12:30unfortunately this is a rather common occurrence in ruana
12:33there aren't any good kinds of medicine here
12:36i gather all the children together to tell them stories and teach them writing and arithmetic
12:43this boy jill is an orphan
12:45and even though he's only six years old he possesses an intelligence that astonishes me
12:52had he received a proper education
12:54i've no doubt he could have grown to be a remarkable man
12:57but that can never happen
12:59not in ruana
13:00in a village of exiled criminals even children are seen as such from the day they're born
13:05as hard as it is to accept there's nothing we can do to change it
13:08and young alicia
13:10you mustn't blame yourself
13:13i've wanted for nothing all my life
13:16i've had a supportive learning environment and a kind family
13:20where you're born determines so much about your life
13:23i was born with enormous privilege
13:25i've been blessed to be sheltered like a special little girl
13:29it's so disgraceful
13:31not that i want to help people
13:33that isn't something a villainess would do
13:35but i bet the heroine could have saved him
13:40and if she's capable of doing something
13:42then i need to be strong enough to pull it off too
13:45i won't let them say i'm too young or too powerless
13:48after all i don't plan to be ordinary
13:53hello again mr paul
13:55i was hoping to get some of your josiah
13:58do you need a fever reducer
14:00you helping someone sick or injured
14:02oh i mean in ro
14:08here no questions asked
14:10dissolve it in water and have them drink it
14:11oh goodness thank you so much
14:14and um how much do i owe you
14:17nothing at all
14:18it's on the house today young lady
14:20and don't make a fuss
14:22you just continue to patronize this shop understand
14:25i will
14:26that's so generous of you
14:30this won't be able to heal his wounds
14:32but it will keep him alive
14:34i can't thank you enough
14:37grandpa will
14:38i am completely inadequate
14:40i thought i was doing everything right
14:43and becoming the greatest villainess ever
14:45but if i can't take action when it matters
14:48there's no point
14:50from this day forward
14:51i vow to work however hard i have to
14:54to become a villainess who goes down in history
14:57a villainess
14:59i'm on a mission to find myself a grimoire today
15:02to become a greek villainess
15:04i must master my magic
15:09huh
15:10hey i don't have any memory of this section being here
15:16what's this
15:17it's a real grimoire
15:20look at this section
15:22there's a ton of books on magic
15:24how did i miss these every other time i've searched
15:26now time to race up the stairway to villainess hood
15:33magic has different levels
15:34levels 50 and up require the mana of the five great noble families
15:39the highest recorded level is 100
15:42but i know in one part of the game
15:44the heroine and prince duke both exceed level 100
15:48as the villainess of the story
15:50there's a fair chance that i'm designed to always fall short of the heroine
15:53but that's no excuse to not get out there and work as hard as i can
15:58you never know until you try
16:02let's see
16:03i'll start with level one magic and make something float
16:06i just focus all the mana in my body
16:08and guide it down to my fingertips
16:11there's no incantation so i'm a little confused
16:14float on air
16:19it's really floating
16:21does this mean i'm able to use magic
16:24i'm in awe
16:27yeah i guess i might need a little more practice to master it
16:31wow i'm fired up now
16:32i'm gonna keep learning as much as i can
16:49wow look at them
16:50i did it
16:51and that's level five magic
16:53if i can move all of these
16:55it's safe to say i've mastered this objective
17:00i stayed up all night practicing instead of sleeping
17:03my limbs feel heavy
17:05my head won't stop throbbing
17:07i must not have enough stamina yet
17:09i wonder if i can train to raise it
17:13i'll take a five minute break before starting on the next level
17:17alicia
17:19the king is here to meet with me
17:22yes
17:23i know it's out of the blue
17:25my first villainous trial in only two years time
17:28i don't understand why you insist on seeing alicia
17:31it's been too long since i asked her opinion
17:35is that the only reason
17:36you wouldn't be here if you thought it was the only reason
17:39is that not the truth my son
17:43it is an honor to see you once again your majesty
17:46i hope you're in good health
17:47ah there you are
17:49i see you're doing well
17:51the heads of the five great noble families together
17:54i can't be that famous of a villainous yet
17:56all right then to the point
17:58do you love this kingdom
18:01what does that mean
18:03i can never understand what's behind the king's questions
18:06let me phrase that in a different way
18:08what do you think of the way this kingdom operates
18:11what can i say and sound like an actual villainous
18:17i detest its preferential treatment of nobles
18:21do you now
18:23anne
18:23well
18:24it's systemically bad
18:26after all
18:27merely proclaiming oneself a noble
18:29places even the most incompetent individuals at the top
18:33who are you to insult us like that
18:35no matter
18:36continue please
18:37majesty
18:38forgive me
18:39i did not mean to defame all nobles
18:42but one only needs to possess mana to be one
18:45mana's very different than political prowess
18:48no matter how much potential they have
18:51commoners are never granted these kinds of opportunities
18:54in such a magic-based class system
18:56how much raw talent must be going to waste
18:59it makes so little sense
19:01it's giving me a horrible headache
19:05that's enough
19:06watch your tongue this instant
19:07now there's no need to shout
19:09she's just a young girl with lofty ideas
19:12i do wish they'd keep their voices down
19:14that part about having an awful headache was true
19:19father please
19:20should we
19:21my dear
19:22one last question for you
19:24if i may
19:25what you said applies to you as well
19:28so you're aware that would mean being ousted from your place in the five great noble families
19:32yes
19:33of course i'm aware
19:36i was born into this family through good fortune alone
19:39and i believe it would be most uncouth
19:41to want my status guaranteed at the expense of people with more talent than me
19:46you are truly an unusual child
19:51that's enough for me
19:54i don't know if i gave the right answers for the villainess i want to be
19:57but i need to rest
19:59i feel so very weak
20:05alicia what's happening
20:06please wake up
20:08she has a fever
20:12what's going on
20:14ali
20:15she just collapsed
20:16yes i'm afraid she's been unwell this whole time
20:20um let's get her to her quarters for now
20:23i'll carry her there
20:25uh
20:32is someone there
20:34alicia
