Episode 58

He didn’t know how she knew that Baal was hiding in the bar, but Anissa called out to him and went back to the castle.  ‘I thought you liked dolls.’ Dietrich stared at the bag where the bundle of money stuck out without understanding why the child showed disappointment in him. He had a brilliant mind, but even he did not understand Anissa’s actions.  Not only was she taking the side of Catherine Fermat’s children, but she was also trying to help a child she didn’t know.  ‘But I can’t figure out why she’s upset.’ Dietrich let out a low sigh and peered at the chair where Anissa sat. “You didn’t give me the money, but I’ll thank you for now.” Lost in thought, Dietrich was suddenly talked to by the silver-haired girl who was sitting down earlier. The sight of her trying to cover her red-rimmed eyes, as if she had returned to reason, was noticeable but apart from that, nothing else caught his interest.

Episode 59

A war. Don’t tell me this was the first Rose War that Derek Lagrange waged against the Euclids? “Did Dietrich go to war? Is that why he isn’t in Dahlia?” Yuric couldn’t answer my question right away. From behind, the sound of Veronica muttering cursed words such as that idiot or fool and so on could be heard. “That can’t be true.” Dietrich and Hermann’s first meeting was when they were 17 years old. Because Hermann was 17 years old when he first entered the battle. ‘The sequence of events is different from the novel.’  Could it be that Dietrich entered the battlefield much earlier than Hermann? Even the knights who could skip the enlistment had to be at least 16 years old.   The war against Euclid was not even a part of the successor game. “. . . . but Alphonse didn’t go. I saw him in Liatris.” "Of the successor candidates, Dietrich is the only one participating in the war right now, Anissa." “Why?” “Because he’s the strongest.” “But Dietrich is only thirteen years old.” Yuri
