## Content

Olivia: "This is the city of Callaeus, the last imperial base in Revair."

Astrid: "It feels like it's about time for a boss to show up..."

Olivia: "Well, I have heard two Fangs of the Empire were dispatched to this region."

Astrid: "Ooh, I wonder who! I hope it's no one I've fought before!"

Olivia: "It is said that Brandon Kursh, the Soul Eater, is the commander-in-chief of the imperial forces in Revair. Whoever the other one is, they've only been dispatched here recently."

Helga: "If one of them's Brandon... well, he probably hasn't aged still. We could be in for a difficult fight."

Schneider: "He one of the Twelve Heroes from the War of the Tyrants, right? You must've fought together with him..."

Helga: "I did. He can absorb the souls of those he defeats. When it comes to pure strength, he was near the top even of the Twelve."

Astrid: "Oooh! Fighting him sounds like it'd be fun! I can't wait!"

Fram: "Wonder who the other one is..."

Astrid: "Doesn't matter to me, as long as they can fight!"

...

Rosanna: "Hey, kid!"

Charlotte: "It's Rosanna!"

"Lord": "Finally make it? What about the reinforcements?"

Rosanna: "The Dakkeon forces just landed and they're probably now attacking the back of this base. The operation's gone smoothly thanks to Avillon dividing the empire's forces."

"Lord": "King Aslan must be here, too. Good."

Astrid: "Nooo! What if he takes down someone I wanted to fight!? Wait... I guess I'd just fight him, then?"

"Lord": "As long as we all make it out of this war with our limbs intact, I'll be more than happy to let you fight to your heart's content. For now, just focus on the empire's forces."

Helga: "Aslan... Wonder if he's all right..."

Walther: "Lady Helga... Show some concern for me, too..."

...

Nine: "Ha ha ha! I knew you'd come this way!"

Astrid: "Ugh! We chose the wrong way! Why does it have to be him of all people?!"

Olivia: "It's Nine, one of the Fangs of the Empire! A battle-type homunculus..."

Mei Ling: "We've already fought him."

Olivia: "...I see."

Nine: "I must repay you a hundred... no, a thousand times the pain you caused the last time we met!"

Astrid: "Er, hello? Do you not remember how we wiped the floor with you last time?"

[the background turns black, only Astrid and Nine are visible]]

Nine: "Mwahaha! Our benevolent emperor was gracious enough to bestow upon me a blessing that made me stronger than before![...]"

"Lord": "He doesn't seem to be kidding. His magic is much greater than before. Knights, don't let your guard down, and give him everything you've got!"

[The Avillon Alliance defeats Nine]

Nine(covering his middle with his left arm): "Ngh... Impossible..."

Fram: "How did he get so strong so quickly? I mean, we still beat him, but still..."

"Lord": "He said his emperor bestowed upon him a 'blessing'..."

Nine: "No... This means... I'll be deemed... as worthless... I'll be... disposed of..."

"Lord": "Hmm."

Nine: "I was made... to fight... I am greater... than you... I am... not worthless..."

Charlotte: "His words are full of sadness and despair... Was he trying to prove his worth?"

"Lord": "How old did you say he was?"

Astrid: "Uh, I dunno. Nine years old, maybe? I don't think he's ten."

"Lord": "Still too young for his sense of self to be fully formed... Rosanna, would you mind locking him up?"

Rosanna: "So now I'm on clean-up duty? I guess it doesn't matter, since I'm not going to be fighting."

Astrid: "You're not gonna end him? Are you showing him pity?"

"Lord": "Pity comes from a sense of superiority. It's something I avoid at all costs. I simply want to give him another chance."

Astrid: "Heh, you know, Highness, you're quite, uh... You've got quite the big heart. You're good."

"Lord": "A ruler's role is to steer others to in a more positive direction."

Aslan: "Well, if it isn't 'Lord'! It's been a long time. Looks like we're all done fightin'!"

"Lord": "Aslan. Everything okay? Not hurt anywhere? I'd like to hear your impressions on our first operation as an alliance."

Aslan: "Can't say I'm completely unharmed, but we won anyway! Ha ha! It's thanks to you that were able to take down the forces in the rear here without worrying about the front. You did great."

Helga: "Was Brandon there?"

Aslan: "Yeah, and he's much, much stronger than before. Luckily, we were able to drive him off before anyone got too hurt. If it weren't for my daughter, we would've been in a rough spot."

Alev(bowing): "Nice to see you again, 'Lord'."

"Lord": "Glad to see you're not hurt, Alev. You both did great."

Astrid: "Tch, can't believe I lost the chance to fight against a fun opponent!"

"Lord"(exasperated): "Don't worry. Moving forward, I'm sure you'll have more than your fill of 'fun' opponents. Olivia Pavlichenko, as of this moment, Revair has been liberated from the empire."

Olivia(saluting): "Thank you. I am admittedly still a little dazed and bewildered, but you have my sincere gratitude."

"Lord": "Of course, there are still more battles to be waged against the empire. Would you be interested in joining our alliance?"

Olivia: "Of course. I do not wish our relationship to be one where I only receive help."

"Lord": "Good. Someone with your skill will be great help on the battlefield."

Mikhail: "I was moved by some of the shots you made."

Olivia: "Your marksmanship was also a thing to behold. I had no idea a bow could be utilized to that extend."

Mikhail(smiling): "Heheh."

Olivia(also smiling): "Heheh."

Fram(rubbing the back of her head): "...What's goin' on here?"

"Lord": "Now we head for the kingdom of Druen. Lumisade and Varhya have already been shaking things up there, which should make the situation easier than here. In the meantime, I'd like Dakkeon and Isola to move on to Galemund and throw them off their guard. Be careful."

Aslan: "Don't you worry! I've gotten back into the feel of things and am fightin' just like I did in my prime! Hah!"

Alev: "I will do my best. You be careful, too, 'Lord'."
