---------------------------
This here is an amethyst that shines like a crimson fire even in the dark of the night.
We are bored of amethysts.
This is made up of 778 pearls next to one another, and...
Each pearl is too small.
That aquamarine and the crystallite there will be enough for today.
In fact, we will not accept anything today.
You may make your hasty leave.
Our lover would not be happy with that level of merchandise.
----------------------------
Jewel merchants, you say?
May I inspect the goods you are bringing into this country?
Could you let us skip that one?
They are goods we wish to present to Her Majesty.
Her Majesty, you say?
To the Empress Elizaveta.
---------------- -------------------
This is where we part.
Y-You're giving us so much?
We'll ask again if something comes up.
Do you think that the Empress of this entire country would really grant strangers like us an audience?
With Elizaveta's permission, we'll be able to go confidently after Vorontsov.
As to that, firstly, we'll request Her audience with us as jewel merchants.
But we don't have a single thing on board that resembles that...
The five of us... have a treasure that matches jewels.
What Russia wanted was a harbour that wouldn't freeze.
In the freezing land, many fell in the labour of creating a town from nothing.
The town that was built on corpses... that is this Saint Petersburg.
And we learned about "revolution" in this northern port.
That things we thought would never decay, crumbled so easily...
Can you see that building?
That's the French Embassy.
The affiliation France and Russia currently have, was founded by none other than Lia.
But if the one who sent Vorontsov was the Russian Empress Elizaveta...
it would mean we will not be able to trust anything.
Is Elizaveta an enemy, or a friend?
--------------------------------
"The four Frenchmen who have crept into Russia are the King's personal secret diplomats."
"However, whether they are arrested and tortured, or die in any situation, France will have nothing to do with it."
Pompadour...
A woman colder than Russian snow.
"Furthermore, I have sent out a good excuse to arrest the four Frenchmen."
This here is the most expensive perfume in Cologne that is said to be the root of the word "Cologne"
There is no need for a man to go about spraying perfume.
I'm sorry, but I hear that the costume party being held by Empress Elizaveta is a little bit qeer.
Please think about it for then...
I've had enough of that story, Duke Cagliostro, or whatever you're called.
I have debts towards Count Saint-Germain, but I don't remember asking for his help.
What do you mean "help"?
Count Saint-Germain ordered me to hunt a fox that got loose in the north.
He told me to do so swiftly in order not to bother the hands of noble people.
We have the right to hunt foxes that have entered into our gardens.
However...
It is as you say.
However, these are foxes with fine fur.
Just hunting and killing them would be a waste.
I would like you to consider the usage of the fur.
They say, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do."
Exactly. If you are in Russia, obey me.
That is the correct decision.
As you say.
I don't like it...
Why the hell do they think the Revolutionary Community sent ME to this end of the land?
Eventually, the time will come.
Well, it's not like I hadn't predicted that this would happen.
To be treated like an ambassador just by being one from Duke Saint-Germain!
It wouldn't be bad to stay here for a while.
Just–
That Vorontsov man... is he a poet?
Hmm... Can he use it?
More like he's being used by the Poems.
Probably no good.
Hmm, acrimonious.
-------------------------
Ekaterina! Ekaterina!
Madame Ekaterina is taking a bath...
What about it? Just let go of me!
Ekaterina! Do you think you can ignore me just because you're in a bath?!
Ekaterina! Ekaterina!
Ekaterina!
Ekaterina!!!
Your Highness Pyotr!
-------------------------
A strange jewel?
Apparently it is a great big diamond, as big as a walnut.
We see. A walnut-sized diamond...
Bring it in right away. We have never seen such a thing.
Where was it found?
They wish to let you see it directly from their hands.
They are French jewel merchants. What shall we do?
We do not mind.
Let us wear that diamond at tonight's banquet.
If it is something that can satisfy us, we will buy it on the spot.
Tell them so.
-------------------------
Listen, it's three. Answer before I count to three!
Do you understand?
Soon Elizaveta will meet an accidental death.
She will be attacked when she is with her lover.
"An accidental death"...?
And then I will finally be the Emperor of Russia!
But you don't have the time to be rejoicing with me.
Besides, it's not a marriage I wished for.
If you do not listen to me, as soon as I succeed the throne, I'll divorce you.
Don't you worry, Ekaterina!
You're not the one who will be blamed for the crime of assassinating Elizaveta.
It will be four Frenchmen!
"Four French...men"...?
--------------------------
A banquet held by Elizaveta?
Every Tuesday, the Empress always holds a grand ball.
How luxurious! Even Versailles cannot win against that.
If we go there, we can be in the audience of Her Majesty without going through the French Embassy.
But, it's not an ordinary banquet.
It's a masquerade.
Pardon?
The rule is that women wear men's, and men wear women's clothing there.
In other words, we cannot enter unless we dress as women.
It's just what I told you, isn't it? That Master wouldn't be able to speak.
Do you think I do not know of them?
There have also been a few masquerades in our France.
I danced gracefully.
It's our only chance to meet the Empress, there'll be no missing this.
Sir d'Éon...
Looks like we're the ones who can't speak.
But it looks like it may be better to excuse myself this time.
Why is that?
"A noble lady who grows a beard" is rather too eccentric.
I won't go either.
Sir Durand!
I've been working undercover for too long.
I've forgotten how to act in those flowery places.
I think socialising is important for agents also...
Four people would catch too much attention.
You owe me one, don't you?
You said you would return it two-fold.
Protect d'Éon under the guise of a lady-in-waiting.
Master and I will wait around the back.
If it's necessary I wouldn't mind... shaving my beard.
To think that Sister's clothes would be used in such a way...
I wonder if the Empress still trusts Sister–the Frenchwoman Lia de Beaumont.
If that has already been lost, then...
it's a great gamble.
No, this is not a gamble.
What my sister, Lia, protected above all else was the trust of the country.
It cannot be something that disappears so easily.
----------------------------------
I'm only copying what Her Highness Marie does when making herself up...
There are some things that cannot be found out unless one throws oneself into a burning flame.
To think that the flame would be a masquerade...
You look like a lady's maid.
You look unmistakably like a lady's maid.
Let us go, to see the Empress of Russia.
So this is the night under the midnight sun.
Daylight until 11 o'clock–how peculiar.
Lia...
It is not as if this will be the last time we see them.
All we can do is pray to God.
In that palace, there are many who remember Lia before her death.
If someone who should have died arrives while bearing the jewel,
what reaction will it receive from everyone, let alone the Empress?
Either you or I should have gone.
-----------------------------------
Wh-What's going on here?
D'Éon de Beaumont.
So that's the move he made.
Lia?
-----------------------------------
What's the matter?
Oh dear...
-----------------------------------
You there, what do you think this banquet is today?
I believe it to be a masquerade held by Empress Elizaveta.
What are your intentions in attending that masquerade not dressed up?
If he, whom I dressed up, appears to be a naturally born female, then I am honoured beyond all else.
"He", you say?
Good day to you, Your Majesty.
I am the younger brother of Lia de Beaumont, who was in Your favour in the past.
Lia's younger brother?
Yes. There are no lies in his words.
Show us evidence that he is Lia's true family.
What do you mean by "evidence"...?
The Lia we knew was a woman talented at both pen and sword.
If you truly are the younger brother of Lia, then your skills as a knight must also be true.
Will you not show us that right here?
H-He's a spitting image of her.
Entertainment! It's entertainment!
Sir d'Éon...
Stay back.
But–
It's okay.
For some reason, I don't feel like losing.
Right now.
What are your intentions?
Next.
Next.
I'm sorry for using such rough methods.
You are the ones from France, are you not?
Let's hear your story.
Put down your sword.
I have heard that you possess a jewel you wish to show us.
This is it.
Indeed, this is something we have never laid eyes upon.
Come closer, we wish to have a better look.
Yes.
Closer.
Yes.
That impossible alikeness of looks, and the nerve to hand us, the ruler of Russia, an empty jewel box;
there's no mistaking it, you are Lia de Beaumont's younger brother.
I am d'Éon de Beaumont.
--------------------------------------
Here in Russia, you four Frenchmen are about to be showered in sparks of fire.
There are those who are planning the assassination of the Empress.
After the deed is done, they plan to place the blame on you.
Now that's the best spark of fire I've heard of.
Why are you telling us this?
Because it is a spark of fire that also showers my body.
Your body... also?
And you are?
-------------------------------------
What are they... talking about?
This very masquerade was started at a suggestion by Lia de Beaumont.
In this country, women are trodden on by men just for being women.
Liberation from male chauvinism,
liberation from class systems;
there are many things we must do.
Before anything we must change the hearts of men, or we will be able to change nothing.
"If the hearts of men are changed by clothes, then we should change clothes."
That's what Lia said.
"Let us change many things, Your Majesty."
Lia said that to me.
One of the very few...
Yes, she was one of the very few...
...friends I had.
------------------------------
Saint Petersburg in the evening twilight.
The blade of murder that faces Empress Elizaveta.
By a superficial decision of a knight who broke away,
the house of secrecy is dyed in blood.
The winter palace. A hidden agenda that is exposed to the daylight.
