## Transcript

[Aurum Hall, Living Room]

**King** : So.....Edogawa-kun. What brings you here?

**Genrai** : I want to thank you!

**King** : ........What for?

**Genrai** : .......'Cuz you're cool!

**King** : ........

**Genrai** : ......

**King** : ........

**Genrai** : WHAT'S WITH THE AWKWARD SILENCE GOING ON?!

**King** : Well.....What am I supposed to say?

**Genrai** : JOIN IN!

**King** : ......?!

**Genrai** : YOU'RE COOL! YOU'RE COOL! YOU'RE COOL!

(Genrai starts shouting)

**King** : Edogawa-kun! It's late, people would be disturbed!

**Genrai** : Huh? Oh, right. Ahaha, my bad.

**King** : Anyways, Edogawa-kun. You should be at home, your parents are definitely worried-

(Just then, Genrai's phone rings)

**Genrai** : Oh, just a sec.

(Genrai picks up the phone)

**Genrai** : Hello?

**Genrai's Dad** : Genrai! Where did you go?

**Genrai** : No worries, Dad. I'll stay the night at my friend's home.

**King** : Huh?

**Genrai's Dad** : \*sigh\* You should have told me first, at least! Okay then, just don't touch somebody else's things without permission, alright?

**Genrai** : Kay......

(Genrai closes the phone)

**Genrai** : So, can I stay here for the night, Senpai?

**King** : .......

**King** : Yeah. Think of it as your second home.

**Genrai** : OH GOD SENPAI, YOU'RE THE BEST!

**King** : Calm down, Edogawa-kun.

**Genrai** : Oh......Alright.

**King** : Oh, Lancelot.

**Lancelot** : Yes, Rosenkreuz-sama.

**King** : Please take Edogawa-kun to one of the Guest Rooms.

**Lancelot** : At once. Come, Edogawa-sama.

**Genrai** : Alright! See you tomorrow, Senpai!

**King** : Seeya.

(Lancelot and Genrai leaves the room)

**King : .........**

(King then falls to the floor, holding his stomach, and seems to be out of breath)

**King** : .........\*gasp\* \*gasp\*

**King** : I need to go.....back to my room.....

(King slowly stands up, and slowly walks to his room)

**King** : ............

[King's Room, Nighttime]

**King** : ..........

**King** : (I need to.....at least.....r-)

(King falls to the floor, and his fall is heard by Palamedes and Kaye, who are around at that time.)

**Palamedes** : Rosenkreuz-sama!

**Kaye** : Palamedes, let's go!

**Palamedes** : Hm!

(Palamedes opens the door to see King lying on the floor)

**Palamedes** : Rosenkreuz-sama! Rosenkreuz-sama!!

(King is unresponsive....)

**Palamedes** : He's burning!

**Kaye** : I'll get the others, place Rosenkreuz-sama in bed for now!

**Palamedes** : Yes.

(Later.....)

**King** : ..........

(King is resting in his bed)

**Palamedes** : How could this have happened? He was fine this morning, and then.....

(Kaye checks King's temperature)

**Kaye** : .....He overexerted himself. He hasn't fully recovered ever since yesterday.

**Kaye** : You should have paid more attention to Rosenkreuz-sama, why didn't you do so?

**Palamedes** : He looked fine when he's at school, but he-

**Kaye** : If you think you can be a maid just by assuming things, then you might as well quit!

**Palamedes** : ...!!

**Tristan** : Lady Kaye, I share Lady Palamedes's fault. I should have paid closer attention to Rosenkreuz-sama's condition as well.

**Kaye** : ..........

**Kaye** : I apologize, Palamedes. I....I didn't mean to say those things. I-

**Palamedes** : It's alright, Lady Kaye. I know you meant well.

**Palamedes** : As punishment for my oversight, allow me to take care of Rosenkreuz-sama for the night.

**Kaye** : What do you say, Head Maid Lamora?

**Lamora** : Hmph. Suit yourself.

(Lamora leaves)

**Tristan** : ......

**Kaye** : We will leave Rosenkreuz-sama to you, Palamedes.

**Palamedes** : .......Yes.

(The other butlers and maids leaves the room)

**Palamedes** : ........

**Palamedes** : Rosenkreuz-sama.....

[Hallway, Nighttime]

(Lamora walks with Gareth and Gaheris)

**Lamora** : Hmph. That Palamedes thinks she can redeem herself in my eyes. Of course I wouldn't acknowledge her, no matter how many times she tries. Isn't that right, my darling Gareth?

**Gareth** : Head Maid Lamora, why do you hate Lady Palamedes so much? It's not like she has done anything-

**Lamora** : It is not important what does to me! I will forever despise her until the day I die!

(Lamora walks faster, causing her to leave Gaheris and Gareth behind)

**Gareth** : .......

**Gaheris** : It's going to be alright, Sister.

**Gareth** : .....Yeah.

[The Next Morning.....]

**King** : ........Hm?

(King wakes up to see Palamedes sleeping next to his bed)

**King** : Palamedes....

(Palamedes wakes up)

**Palamedes** : Huh....?

(Palamedes sees King looking at her, she then immediately stands up and bows)

**Palamedes** : G-Good morning, Rosenkreuz-sama!

**King** : No need for that. You can sit.

**Palamedes** : .......Have you gotten better, Rosenkreuz-sama?

**King** : Ahaha. I sure have! Let's get ready! I can't wait to go to school.

**Palamedes** : Rosenkreuz-sama.

**King** : Hm?

**Palamedes** : An order from His Majesty. You are hereby to stay here and not to go outside the sorroundings of Tintagel Castle. Which means you are not to attend school today.

**King** : Oh......Alright, then.

**King** : Then, what about-

(Then, the door to King's room opens)

**Gawain** : Rosenkreuz-sama!

**King** : Gawain? What's wrong?

**Gawain** : Edogawa-sama is nowhere to be found!

**King** : What?! Summon everyone, find him at all costs!

**Gawain** : At once!

(Gawain leaves)

**King** : Palamedes.

**Palamedes** : Yes?

**King** : Let's search for Edogawa-kun.

**Palamedes** : .......Yes.

(Meanwhile, in the Argentum Hall)

**Queen** : La~ La~ La~

(Queen walks by the Music Room, when she heard a melody)

**Queen** : Hm?

(Queen opens the door)

**Queen** : Ah!

(Queen sees Genrai playing the piano.......with a....special tune to it)

**Genrai** : URYA! URYA! URYA ! URYA! URYAAAAAA!!!

**Queen** : Hey, you!

**Genrai** : Hm?

**Queen** : State your name and your noble house!

**Genrai** : Uh.....I don't know about any noble house, but my name's Genrai Edogawa.

**Queen** : How are you here?!

**Genrai** : Well, I was having a jog around the castle until I saw a Music Room.

**Queen** : Without my permission? Insolent! Griflet! Griflet!!! Come quickly!

(One of Queen's retainers, Griflet, appears)

**Griflet** : Yes, Rosenkreuz-sama.

**Genrai** : "Rosenkreuz-sama"? Are you Rosenkreuz-senpai's sister?

**Griflet** : Queen-sama. I believe this is King-sama's Guest.

**Queen** : Is it? Very well then.

**Queen** : Edogawa Genrai, was it? Fine. I will let you....um....."off the hook" this time.

**Queen** : Did you hear that, Griflet? I used a difficult word!!

**Griflet** : Yes, very impressive, Rosenkreuz-sama.

**Queen** : But.....!

**Queen** : If you can play one song on the piano, THEN I will let you out of this room.

**Genrai** : ..Hm, sure.

**Genrai** : What song will it be?

**Queen** : Hmm........This one!

(Queen gives Genrai a music sheet)

**Queen** : Hehe.....

**Genrai** : ALRIGHT! HERE I GO!

(Genrai starts playing the piano)

(Meanwhile.....)

[Tintagel Courtyard]

(King and Palamedes meets Dagonet)

**Dagonet** : A-Ah, Rosenkreuz-sama. Good morning.

**King** : Good morning, Dagonet.

**Dagonet** : And to you too, Lady Pa.......Pa....Para....Uh....

**Palamedes** : It's "Palamedes", Dagonet.

**Dagonet** : O-Oh......I'm sorry...I have difficulties remembering names....

**King** : By the way, Dagonet. Have you seen a grey-haired guy around here?

**Dagonet** : Y-Yes.....I saw him. He went to Argentum Hall.

**King** : (What could he be doing there?)

**King** : Great! Can you bring us to him?

**Dagonet** : W-Why? I-Is that a thief that somehow managed to ba-barge in? Oh no.....What am I gonna do?

**King** : Dagonet, he's just-

**Dagonet** : Oh no.......I MESSED UP, DIDN'T I?

**King** : Dagonet, he's just my guest.

**Dagonet** : O-Oh.....I see. I'm sorry for freaking out like that.

**King** : You do apologize a lot, hm.

**Dagonet** : That's what Queen-sama ordered me to do, Sir!

**King** : I see.

**Dagonet** : Ah, I should be going now! See you, Rosenkreuz-sama! and Lady Palamedes.

(Dagonet bows, then he quickly leaves)

**King** : We should go to Argentum Hall immediately, Palamedes.

**Palamedes** : Yes, Rosenkreuz-sama.

[Cuprum Hall, Tintagel Castle]

**King** : .......Ah. Sir Cador.

**Cador** : Good morning, Rosenkreuz-sama.

**Palamedes** : Greetings, Sir Cador.

**Cador** : Lady Palamedes, elegant as always.

**Palamedes** : You flatter me, Sir Cador. By the by, have you seen a grey-haired young man around here?

**Cador** : Ah, him. He was with Queen-sama at the Music Room, along with Griflet. Come, I'll escort you there.

**King** : My thanks, Sir Cador.

**Cador** : Not necessary, Rosenkreuz-sama. I'm only doing my job as a butler of the House.

**Cador** : Please. This way.

[Music Room, Morning]

**King** : Edogawa-kun.

**Genrai** : Ah, Senpai!

**Queen** : Brother! How are you? Griflet told me you fainted yesterday. Are you alright?

**Genrai** : Wait, what? You fainted???!!!!

**King** : Haha.....I'm fine now, Queen, Edogawa-kun. Thanks for worrying about me.

**Queen** : Ehehe......Brother! Brother!

**Queen** : Turns out despite how violent he is at pressing the piano's keys, this friend of yours can play the piano fairly well.

**King** : Really?

**Genrai** : Of course! After all, I am the number one fan of Classical Music!

**King** : Classical Music? I didn't expect that coming from you, Edogawa-kun.

**Genrai** : Hey, what does that mean?

**King** : I'm kidding. Let's hear you play.

**Genrai** : With pleasure!

(Genrai plays the piano while King, Queen, Cador, Griflet, and Palamedes listens to the music)

(After the performance.....)

[Tintagel Gardens, Morning]

**King** : That was an awesome performance, Edogawa-kun.

**Genrai** : Haha......Thanks a lot, Senpai!

**Genrai** : Anyways, thanks for letting me play the piano, Senpai. I thought I was kinda rusty, but turns out I still got it.

**King** : How long have you not played the piano?

**Genrai** : Hmmm....A year ago.

**King** : What happened?

**Genrai** : I usually played the piano from my cousin's home, but since he moved to Yamagata, I never get the chance to play a piano anymore.

**Genrai** : Oh, I do usually practice from the Music Club's keyboards.

**King** : The Music Club? But, I've never seen you there.

**Genrai** : That's because I stopped coming after several senpais from the second year started to go there.

**King** : Ah, I see.

**Genrai** : I feel like how I play the piano, would greatly disturb others. So, I would only go to the Music Club when there's no one around.

**King** : You're a thoughtful person, Edogawa-kun.

**Genrai** : Nah.......not really.

**Queen** : Anyway.

**Queen** : Why are we here, big brother?

**King** : Edogawa-kun.

**King** : Join the Music Club.

**Genrai** : H-Huh?!

**Queen** : ....? What's a Club?
