Catherine (Hela)/Side Tale 1

Shadow Member: Lady Catherine.

 Catherine: Did Tang Yun send you here again?
Catherine. Hela. Shadow Guard.
Shadow Member: Yes, Milady... It's still about the door frame.

 Catherine: He spares no effort in plucking the crown off my head, does he?

 Catherine: This brat doesn't have the guts to face me, yet he would still cause trouble? Speak. What sort of pretext did he come up with this time?
Shadow Member: Master Tang Yun says your crown is constantly colliding with the top of the door frame.
Shadow Member: And also... that the dents marking the sides of the door frame are caused by your exoskeleton.

 Catherine: Hmph. How typical.

 Catherine: Only those who had a door frame fall on them would niggle over these small matters.
Shadow Member: Milady, Master Tang Yun said that these no longer small matters.

 Catherine: Go on, then. What else does he have to say?
Shadow Member: Master Tang Yun said that our financial crisis is due to... the excessive number of door frames you have damaged.
Shadow Member: He also said that you would suffer repercussions if you didn't resolve this issue.

 Catherine: Seems like he has gained a penchant for alarmist talk.

 Catherine: If the council members and the Pillagers are so concerned with our finances, they should question the institute's usage of money.

 Catherine: They won't bother themselves with this trivialities that Tang Yun is up in arms about.

 Catherine: You may leave.
Someone accidentally bumps into Catherine at the corner, scattering invoices.
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: Ah! Apologies Milady! I didn't see you there.

 Catherine: Do you walk around with your eyes closed!?
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: My deepest apologies. I was in such a hurry because there's a truckload of these door frame repair bills that need to be urgently signed by Master Sander...

 Catherine: Wait. What did you say these bills are for?
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: Recently, many door frames have been so damaged that they had to be replaced.
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: So these are the bills for repairing all those door frames.

 Catherine: ...All of them are for door frames?
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: It's all about door frame lately. Before, there were some bills for the institute of the training grounds.
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: However, after Master Sander gave Lady Kara and Master Long Mian an ultimatum, those eventually stopped.

 Catherine: Tell me more about this ultimatum.
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: Master Sander warned them that if there is another spike of repair orders due to their destruction of facilities, he'll cut them off from the Shadow Institute.

 Catherine: ...
Shadow Decree Finance Staff: May I ask...if there is a problem?

 Catherine: It's nothing. You may leave.
After the guy leaves, Catherine looks at the door frame next to her, which has suffered some damage, and ponders.

 Catherine: I suppose this does need to be resolved.
Shadow Decree. Meeting Room Entrance.

 Tang Yun: You are...Catherine's subordinate?
Tang Yun. Six-Eared Macaque. Shadow Guard.
Shadow Member: Yes, Master Tang Yun.

 Tang Yun: What are you doing by the door?
Shadow Member: I'm here to repair this door frame under Lady Catherine's orders.

 Tang Yun: Repairing the door frame? Don't you have better things to do?
Shadow Member: Lady Catherine says that this task is crucial.

 Tang Yun: She knows how to order people around...

 Catherine: What's wrong with me ordering my subordinate around?
Catherine walks over from a distance, a Shadow Institute subordinate panting behind her and pushing a cart full of various boxes.

 Tang Yun: Why, nothing at all. I wouldn't even think of having any objections to that.

 Catherine: If you don't see anything wrong, get out the way.

 Catherine: I'd hate to see another person go to Sander because they had a door frame fall on them.

 Tang Yun: What?
Baffled, Tang Yun stands aside, eyes widening as he sees the institute member pushing the cart with a hammer.

 Catherine: Go on.
Shadow Member: Yes, Milady!

 Tang Yun: Catherine! What are you doing? Destroying of public property is-

 Catherine: Don't make a fuss. I'm just nipping the possibility of the top door frame being scratched at the bud.

 Catherine: They're way too low. That's why they get scratched. So we raise the height of the door frame, and this problem is resolved quickly enough.

 Tang Yun: Can't you just take off your crown?

 Catherine: This is the way to resolve it once and for all. Nobody will be "worried" about the door frame in the future. You should be happy.

 Catherine: And I'll foot the bill for all the costs. This way, no one will ever receive a bill for door frame repairs again.

 Catherine: Is there anything else you want to say?

 Tang Yun: Hmph! Then I shall express my gratitude for the sacrifices your wallet has made.
