In Episode 17, Lawrence plans to thwart Amati's schemes by manipulating market prices. His conversation with Marc about it ends disappointingly, forcing Lawrence to reconsider. He observes Amati and Holo at the inn and receives two letters from Holo—one with information about Amati's wealth and a surprising marriage contract.

Lawrence confronts Amati at a tavern and offers to sell pyrite on credit to destabilize Amati's finances. Amati is initially suspicious but accepts the challenge, confident that Holo will prefer him over Lawrence.

Lawrence asks Marc for help spreading rumors about rising wheat prices to influence pyrite prices and secretly buy pyrite. Marc advises Lawrence to negotiate with Diana, who has connections to alchemists in possession of pyrite, offering him a new opportunity for his plan.

The episode ends with Lawrence pursuing this new lead, determined to protect his interests and his relationship with Holo.
