Beautiful Genius Alchemist?
Clarisse and Cagliostro are greeted by a newcomer to the ship named Meia, who shocks everyone by trying to use "uncle" as a term of respect for Cagliostro upon learning about her past. Cagliostro later returns in a new adult form and takes Clarisse out on a fieldwork expedition.
???: I'm Cagliostro, the beautiful genius alchemist. It's lovely to meet you.
???: So tell me, Meia. I don't give the impression of an uncle like this, do I?
Meia: Huh? Oh, n-no! You most certainly don't... Miss Cagliostro.
???: Hehe. It's a little embarrassing to be addressed so formally.
???: What about you, (Captain)? I'd love to hear your thoughts as well.
Approached by Cagliostro in this new form, (Captain) struggles to process her dramatic transformation.
Clarisse: Oh my gosh...
Clarisse: (H-how did things end up like this?)
Beside the captain, Clarisse stands bewildered, reflecting on the events that had transpired a few hours earlier.
Clarisse: That's right. It all started when I asked Master if she wanted to grab some tea in the galley...
Clarisse: Here, Master! Check out this tea!
Clarisse: It's brewed from some super fancy leaves that one of the Irestill crew members brought back as a souvenir.
Cagliostro: Well, well. It does have quite a pleasant aroma.
Cagliostro: But I wonder, Clarisse—can you really tell the difference between this and other teas?
Clarisse: Huh? Uhh...
Clarisse: O-of course I can! My taste buds are super sharp, I'll have you know!
Cagliostro: Okay, then what kind of flavor do you think makes for a tasty tea?
Clarisse: Super sweet! With loads of whipped cream piled on top!
Cagliostro: I won't knock your preferences, but I doubt we can count on your palate for a subtle flavor analysis.
Clarisse: Aww, whipped cream is great! And it makes the drink look cute too!
As the pair are exchanging their usual banter, they hear an unfamiliar voice.
Meia: I'll go introduce myself to those two next, (Captain)!
Meia: H-hello! My name is Meia, and I recently began traveling with this crew. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance!
Meia: Um, as you may or may not be aware, I'm a goblin—like my elder sister, Goblin Mage.
Meia: I've come to lend a hand as part of my studies in forming connections with all sorts of people!
Meia: I may make mistakes along the way, b-but I would greatly appreciate your guidance and support going forward!
Clarisse: Wow, such good manners! I'm Clarisse. It's nice to meet you too!
Cagliostro: Hi, hi! I'm the super cute alchemist Cagliostro!
Cagliostro: If you have any questions about the ship, don't hesitate to ask! Teehee!
Meia: Thank you, Miss Clarisse! Miss Cagliostro!
As Meia gazes at the two alchemists, a thought suddenly crosses her mind.
Meia: Are you two sisters by any chance?
Meia: It's not every day one has the opportunity to meet sisters who are also crewmates. I'd love to hear more about your experiences if so.
Clarisse: Sisters? Oh, well... I guess I can see why you'd think that.
Clarisse: But the truth is, we're actually—
Cagliostro: You hit the nail right on the head! The two of us are alchemist sisters! Isn't that right, Big Sis Clarisse?
Clarisse: Wha! B-Big Sis?
Meia: Ooh! I had a feeling that was the case!
Meia: Sisters who share a passion for alchemy and even belong to the same skyfaring crew... I must say, I'm rather envious!
Clarisse: N-no, no, no! Master, you shouldn't play weird pranks on a little kid like this!
Meia: "Master"?
Clarisse: Here, Meia, let me explain. Though it's kind of a long story...
Meia: Miss Cagliostro has been living since before the War by continuously switching bodies? And she was born as a male?
Meia: And she's fought alongside not only (Captain) and Miss Clarisse, but even archangels—and against so many different foes?
Meia: Wh-whaaat?
Cagliostro: Oh, please. It was just a harmless little joke to lighten the mood for our little newbie here.
Clarisse: Hearing my own ancestor call me "Big Sis" is painfully awkward, to say the least...
Cagliostro: What was that?
Clarisse: Eep!
Clarisse: A-anyway, look! (Captain) and Vyrn are here now!
Clarisse: Boy, Meia sure is a sweet and honest kid! Even with the little mix-up...
Vyrn: Mix-up? What'd Cagliostro do this time?
Cagliostro: Why do you immediately point the finger at me, hmm?
Vyrn: Cause the self-satisfaction is written all over your face.
Cagliostro: How cruel! You're in for some serious punishment later, my cheeky lizard friend!
Amidst the lively chatter, Meia murmurs quietly to the captain.
Meia: (Captain), if I may say so again, there truly is more than meets the eye to everything on this ship...
Meia: Wait—and I dared put myself on the same level, thinking we were both little sisters! Forgive me!
Cagliostro: All that stuffy talk is a big no-no! Let's keep it casual between us cute girls. Teehee!
Meia: No, I couldn't possibly! Someone as incredible as you deserves proper respect!
Meia: Um, let me try this once more. It's an honor to meet you... Uncle Cagliostro!
Vyrn: Uncle...
Clarisse: Cagliostro...
Cagliostro: ...
Meia: Eh?
Vyrn: Huh. Come to think of it, I guess that's not totally inaccurate.
Clarisse: (U-U-Uncle?)
Clarisse: (She flipped out big-time when I called her Great-Granduncle before, so this could end poorly...)
Cagliostro: You know, I just remembered something I need to take care of.
Cagliostro: Meia, why don't you relax and have some tea with the others in the meantime?
Meia: Huh? Oh, all right.
Clarisse: And that was the last we saw of Master in her original form.
Cagliostro: Come now, (Captain). I can't tell what you think if you give me the silent treatment.
Cagliostro: Oh well. You can send me your impressions in a report later.
Cagliostro: Clarisse!
Clarisse: Eep! Y-yes, I'm listening!
Cagliostro: I'm heading out for some special fieldwork. And naturally, you're coming with me.
Clarisse: Wait, right now? But—
Cagliostro: You don't have a say in this. And with that, we're off!
Clarisse: Whaaat! Wait, Master! Don't tug on my arm like that!
Clarisse: H-h-holy cow, that's some grip! Being all grown-up made you crazy strong!
Despite their now-similar heights, Clarisse is easily overpowered and dragged away by Cagliostro.
Vyrn: What the heck was that?
Left behind without a clue, (Captain) and company can only scratch their heads in bewilderment.
