Matthias (AFL game)

"*A martial artist with great sense of justice. Despite his soft face style, he doesn't like everybody in town call him "cute".*"
– In-Game Profile

**Matthias**, more known by his full name as **Matthias Nielsen** (マティアス・ニールセン *Matiasu Nīrusen*), is a character in both Story of World II: Flowers Bloom with You (game) and its remake Story of World II: A Flowery Life (game). In *A Flowery Life* game, he is one of available bachelors to court.

Matthias is very cheerful, soft, and kind-hearted. He however doesn't like people other than the player and his Nordic friends to call him "cute", although how sweet his face is.

Descended from the Rød Himmel (Red Sky) Clan, Matthias is a martial artist who is the heir to Nielsen family, as they are known for their martial arts skills. He is best friends with Per and Holger along with one of three rivals to Benedikt Schöne.

If the player chose to not marry Matthias, Freja will be his romance affection.

## **Unlocking Matthias**

At the beginning of game, Matthias left the town to study martial arts. To unlock him, these certain requirements must been met:

1. Go to Red Star Training Hall in friend's town. Once arrived, there will be no Freja greeting you.
2. Go back to your house using "Go Back Whistle". Save and continue. After this, Matthias will come to introduce the player that he is a newcomer in town.

## **Schedule**

Before he is married, Matthias lives in his house at Primavera Lake District. He spends his days strolling through Privaria and go somewhere nice. He takes frequent breaks from work in the evenings, and can often be found just outside his house. On Sundays, he goes to Moonlight Dojo to train. After he finishes training, he walks around Starland City and then go to Red Star Training Hall to visit Freja.

If the player marries Matthias, he will move in to player's house. His old house in town will be given to the man who assists Meirin at Go Fuu Chinese Restaurant. Matthias will spend his evenings visiting Cappuccino Bar until 11pm. On Thursdays, he can be seen looking the animals at Lime Ranch in Engelstein Fields.

If Freja marries Matthias, she will move in with him. He keeps the same schedule as he was single, but changed a little bit. Since Freja and Matthias live together, he no longer visits the Training Hall, and will go nearby locations such as walking around Engelstein Fields.

On days with bad weather Matthias will stay home regardless whether he is single or married.

Instead of regular dialogue, Matthias asks if the player is free to hang out later. If the player accepts, Matthias will ask player to meet him at the Primrose Private Academy grounds at 16:00 (4PM). Meet Matthias at the lake district on 16:00.

When he arrives, the two of us will talk about work. It's nice to relax after a long day of working, and Matthias wonders if the player ever gets tired. If the player tells him that they do, he'll be glad that he took one out to get a break! The two of us will talk through evening, and when the date is over he will thank the player and go home.

Standing Matthias up for the date or declining his offer will result in losing heart points.

**Freja**: "Fuu... That doesn't mean... I still can't have fun!"

**Matthias**: "Why... are you crying?"

**Freja**: "...It's a girl thing! You wouldn't understand!"

**Matthias**: "Maybe I wouldn't. But I don't want to see you cry, either... How about I give you that Ring, then?"

**Freja**: "Don't tease me! Give it to someone you like!"

**Matthias**: "I'm not teasing, Freja!"

**Freja**: ?

**Matthias**: "I've been waiting for the right moment..."

**Freja**: (*Looks depressed*)

The date will be written on invitation, as well as time. Wedding ceremonies always at 10:00.

On the scheduled wedding date, walk into Primrose Private Academy school gym to see Matthias and Freja's wedding. It is very similar to the Player's wedding. Most townspeople will be attending. All the Player does is sit back and watch as a guest of their wedding. After the event is over, players will be transported inside their House.

**Child**
Two weeks after their wedding ceremony, Matthias and Freja will send a letter to the Player's mailbox about a birth of their baby girl named Leonore. Players can meet their new baby by visiting both Matthias and Freja at Matthias' House.

Leonore will only appear in game if Matthias and Freja already got married.
