I'm an ignorant child.[sr]What could I possibly want to know now? [k] ?1:The best way to live your own life. ?! [charaFace C 13] @Erice I-I... Okay, that might be true, but still! [k] [charaFace C 4] @Erice That doesn't give me the right to[sr]ruin everything else like this... [k] [charaFace C 19] @Erice Hell, I don't even have the right to go on living,[sr]since I couldn't even atone for my own sins... [k] ?1:You already atoned for your sins. ?! [charaFace C 12] @Erice Huh? [k] ?1:This was never about seeking forgiveness for you. ?2:You were just seeking a trial that you would face yourself. ?! @Erice ...

[k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk C] [charaFace C 0] [charaFadein C 0.1 1] @Erice So, you're saying all of the Monde du Jeu is...a trial? A challenge? [k] [charaFace C 4] @Erice That I secretly wanted...to atone for my sins? [k] @Erice That I wanted to keep on living,[sr]even though I'm a stupid embarrassment? [k] [charaFace C 19] @Erice ...

I'm sorry. I just couldn't bring myself to tell you about Louis... [k] [charaFace E 0] @Marie Now, now. None of that.[sr]You have nothing to apologize for. [k] @Marie The Charles you met was already a Heroic Spirit.[sr]Life and death no longer mattered to him. [k] [charaFace C 14] @Erice But, that doesn't change the fact that I killed him! [k] [charaFace E 0] @Marie Only because you had no choice. You did it to protect[sr]yourself, not because you truly wanted to. [k] @Marie If you hadn't, there's every possibility that[sr]Charles would have killed you instead. [k] @Marie If anyone was keeping you on edge back here in Shinjuku and Akihabara, I think it had to be...well, you. [k] [charaFace E 4] @Marie If your evil spirits took form in this world,[sr]then I'm just as much to blame for it as anyone. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Erice Don't be silly, Your Majesty! I know you would never have wanted things to turn out like[line 2] [k] [charaFace C 14] @Erice Oh... [k] [charaFace E 0] @Marie See? Sometimes, things turn out a certain way[sr]no matter how much we may wish otherwise. [k] @Marie It's all part of the ties Servants like us inevitably form. [k] @Marie As long as humanity's hope and potential can be shown[sr]in places that have transcended good and evil... [k] @Marie ...then we'll always be able to prove our worth,[sr]no matter how sullied we may have become. [k] @Marie That's what it means to be a Heroic Spirit. To manifest as a Servant in this world. Isn't that right? [k] [charaFace C 19] @Erice ...I... I don't know. I still can't say for sure. [k] [charaFace C 5] @Erice But! If that's true, then... [k] @Erice ...I want to believe that someone[sr]like me becoming a Servant... [k] [charaFace C 2] @Erice ...won't be considered an insult to all the Heroic Spirits! [k] [charaFace E 0] @Marie Then I want you to do something for me:[sr]hold your head high! [k] [charaFace C 14] @Erice Your Majesty...[sr]I want to believe I can. I do! [k] [charaFace C 4] @Erice But, the fact is...I'm cursed.[sr]I mean, you saw my terrible power for yourself! [k] [charaFace E 4] @Marie Yes, I did. I could tell just how powerful that magical energy was. [k] [charaFace C 19] @Erice It's the power of death itself. Honestly, it still frightens me. It's what caused this whole disaster in the first[line 2] [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [charaFadeout C 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk depthOn] [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_11 0.7] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 5] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Kijyo Koyo G[messageShake 0.05 4 4 0.4]rrrrrrrrr!
