"Shall I prepare some tea?" "thank you." "The College of Cardinals has deemed the incident at Barcelona the sole work of Barrie." "So that's the official position?" "You're saying that a single person caused that much destruction?" "!" "That's such an obvious ruse!" "It's the same as always;" "the Rosen Kreuz never comes into the open." "William." "I can't possibly remain calm." "Noelle-kun was a nice girl..." "Noelle-kun's body is still being searched for." " Have them work faster." " Understood!" "It seems the only consolation is that my brother finally acknowledges the threat made against Rome after seeing Barcelona destroyed." "No wonder the place was crawlin' with cops on my way from the villa." "There is a reason for that." "Archbishop Alfonso D'Este has returned to Rome from Cologne for the first time in 5 years." "huh... where'd that bungler run off to?" "!" "He's still missing." "Missing?" "!" "I'm certain Abel is in Rome. he fully informed me of the next threat of attack and Silent Noise." "There is only one thing he can do for Noelle..." "He must be in Rome." "Make certain you find him!" "Guns!" "Positive." "It is all my fault..." "Your Eminence." "Please don't worry yourself too much." "It was not your fault... you know..." "Yes..." "We have been bound for 10 years now..." "Havel..." "Thank you." "Father Wordsworth!" "heard about Noelle-san..." "Is there..." "Is there anything I can do?" "!" "Of course!" "We need all the help we can get right now." "Right!" "Your Holiness." "Uncle Alfonso... am truly sorry for my extended silence." "I realize that the Papal conclave was not wrong in bestowing you the majesty of God five years ago." "Uncle..." "I'm still very" "Do not humble yourself." "I'm actually filled with pride that I lost to you." "Caterina-dono... hasn't it?" "Five years now..." "Uncle!" "It's a pleasure to see you!" "I am glad to see you're in good health." "I felt most proud as your uncle to hear of your great successes." "Uncle." "We are truly grateful for your help." "Uncle..." "Your Holiness." "I am donating gifts from my heart so that Rome's even greater majesty may be conveyed to the people." "One is an obelisk to denote Rome as the crux of humanity." "as a hope for everlasting peace." "May its wonderful timbre resonate throughout this blessed city..." "Father..." "So you did come back!" "Caterina-sama was right!" "Everyone is worried." "Let's go." "What's wrong?" "all the bells in Rome are being checked." "Everyone is working hard to protect Rome." "right?" "Father..." "My appreciation is beyond words." "You're too kind." "I did begrudge the fact that the Papal conclave after all the political work I'd done with them." "But five years was enough time to wash away those hard feelings." "What I told His Holiness was no lie." "I'm glad I lost the election to him." "Caterina-dono." "I suppose." "he probably would like to unleash the Dept." "Of Inquisition to launch an all-out war against the vampires." "Its very lack of marching orders gives that section its presence." "the Department of Inquisition may soon be necessary..." "How so?" "I hear there is another group- separate from the vampires- working behind the scenes." "You know of that?" "The supposed "enemy of the world"..." "I also hear that one of your aides perished as a result of their work..." "My deepest condolences." "How do you know this?" "!" "but my love for Rome remains unchanged." "The city police just completed its inspections. but not a single one was found to be out of the ordinary." "Professor?" "William?" "terribly sorry." "Is something the matter?" "Speaking of bells..." "Was that one checked?" "The bell Archbishop Alfonso donated?" "It was brought here today when he arrived..." "Abel." "I'm sorry." "I..." "There is nothing to apologize about." "Nor for Noelle..." "What is this?" "Abel..." "You're quitting the AX?" "Because you couldn't save Noelle?" "You returned to Rome." "Wasn't that so you could fight them?" "What about the promise you made me 10 years ago?" "I won't forget what you told me." "Abel." "People are contradictory beings." "then so am I!" "Is that how you want it?" "Your Eminence!" "Abel-kun..." "Professor." "Forget about him." "It's time for the evening service... the bell must not be rung." "You don't mean... of course." "it must not be rung." "Have you sent anyone?" "!" "Your Eminence." "as well as His Holiness." "then so be it..." "I assume you both realize whose donation that bell is?" "We are fully aware it was donated by Archbishop Alfonso D'Este." "It entered Rome unchecked under his indulgence as archbishop." "All bells in Rome have been inspected." "All checks turned up nothing." "The only one left is that bell. but isn't placing Inquisitors within the bell tower a bit much?" "there is no such thing as being too cautious." "Brother..." "Caterina!" "Keeping His Holiness waiting like this..." "We have no choice." "Beginning promptly is the very essence of this evening service." "Y-yeah..." "Everyone!" "The evening service will begin shortly! is the bell dedicated by Archbishop Alfonso D'Este!" "Stop!" " Outta the way!" "Don't ring that bell!" " Hey!" "Settle down!" "Who are you?" "!" "Your behavior before His Holiness is disrespectful!" "I just need a second!" "Lemme check that bell!" "What nonsense!" "B" " Brother!" "Cur!" "You must be one of Caterina's lackeys!" "That's right." "Duchess!" "Sister!" "Please call off the service for now." "Caterina!" "Brother." "Might I ask you to refrain from ringing Uncle's bell for now?" "What?" "!" "Surely you're not insinuating that his bell belongs to said terrorists?" "!" "Are you suggesting that ringing this bell will decimate Rome?" "!" "I'm simply saying that possibility exists." "On what grounds?" "!" "Because it was not checked by an outside group when he brought it in." "What nonsense is this?" "!" "How can you possibly suspect this bell?" "!" "Or are you daring to suggest that Uncle is in league with them?" "!" "I haven't said that!" "We simply mustn't underestimate the terrorists who razed Barcelona." "I ask that you please let go of that." "It is possible that you've been used by the terrorists." "being used?" "I'll have you know my bell is pristine!" "I'm on it!" "There is no reason to take the trouble to inspect it." "Have your suspicions been cleared now Niece?" "S" " Sister..." "What do you have to say for your rudeness before His Holiness?" "!" "I know this will not remain forever it's beautiful and your warm smile" "They're my treasure" "It's hard to forget" "I wish there was a solution" "Don't spend your time in confusion" "I'll turn back now and spread" "My broken wings- still strong enough to cross the ocean with" "My broken wings- how far should I go drifting in the wind" "Higher and higher in the light (My broken wings)" "Still strong enough to cross the ocean with" "My broken wings- how far should I go drifting in the wind just keep on flying" "(What's falling from the sky is not rain... )" "N-next time" " Episode 10:" "Overcount II.
