Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

You want to personally hire me?

俺を個人的に雇いたい、だと?

That's right. The Dieck Mercenaries
are known even in Bern.

Would you add your strength
to my own?

はい。ディーク傭兵団の勇名は
ベルン王国にも響いていました。

ディーク殿の腕に...
頼らせてもらえないでしょうか。

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

I'm not sure I understand. We
both serve under the Order of
Heroes, do we not?

What reason would there be to
go out of your way to hire me?

しかし、なんだってそんなことを?
今の俺たちはヴァイス・ブレイヴの
一員ってわけだろ 。

どうしてわざわざ
あんたに雇われる必要がある?

I ask for Princess Guinivere.

ギネヴィア様の...ためです。

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

The princess of Bern? I still struggle
to understand.

ベルンの王女様のため?
どういうことだ、そりゃ。

Dieck, you were summoned around
the same time we were. Not much
time has passed since we arrived.

Have you built many connections
with your fellow Heroes in such
short a time?

ディーク殿、あなたは
私と同じ時期に召喚されました。
ここに来て、まだ日も浅い。

ゆえに、ヴァイス・ブレイヴの
特定の勢力や組織と
つながっている可能性も低い。

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

Well, some acquaintances, but no one
who I'd trust to truly have my back,
I suppose.

まあな...顔なじみは何人かいるが、
あんたの言うとおり
肩入れしている連中はいねえな。

As with us. So we would ask that
you place the protection of the
princess as your highest priority.

だからこそ、もしものとき
ギネヴィア様の御身を
なによりも優先して動いてほしいんです。

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

Before even a threat to Askr?

そりゃあ
アスク王国の危機よりも
優先してほしいってことか?

Yes. That would be the purpose
of taking you under employ.

はい...
そのためにあなたを雇いたいのです。

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

I see. I'm to be Dieck, Princess
Protector then, am I?

なるほどな。
王女様の護衛役として、か。

This world houses dangers I cannot
yet imagine.

For that reason, adding even one
blade to the princess's guard is
a crucial step forward.

この世界には
私には思いも及ばない危機や
激しい戦いが待っています。

だからこそ、ギネヴィア様の
御身を守るための剣を...
一振りでも多く増やしておきたい。

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

I think I understand now. Let me
think about it.

依頼内容はわかった。
まあ、考えとくぜ。

We will await your answer and
hope to receive good news.

...

良いお返事を期待しています。

Meladyミレディ

I see... So this castle has a number
of underground waterways running
beneath it, yes?

Should we need to escape from the
southern gate, is there a place where
we can secure some drinking water?

There is a sizable lake about a half
day's walk due south. You will be
able to secure water there.

Further, I have negotiated with a few
merchants and I was able to arrange
a carriage.

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

Thank you. We will take the route
you've shown us if we must escape
in a hurry.

Good! But why all the preparations?
All the sneaking about put me a bit
on edge, you see...

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

...

At the very least, oughtn't we speak
to Lord Eliwood or Lord Roy about...

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

I assure you that it is not that we
mistrust the Order of Heroes, or
the Lycian League.

Prince Alfonse, Princess Sharena,
and 【Summoner】...

Lord Roy and Lady Lilina accepted
us with open arms, as you did as well,
Merlinus. You all have our trust.

S-saying it straight to my face
like that... You're making me blush!

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

That said, I want to be as cautious
as I possibly can. No matter what,
the princess must be protected.

Hm! So you are only preparing
for potentialities, are you?

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

If you would, please continue to
investigate escape routes and safe
places where we might hide.

Understood. Now, I must get back
to sorting out the weapon storage.

But, Melady… I know it may not be
my place to say so, but do try not
to overwork yourself.

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

Thank you for your concern. I will
take that under advisement.

...

Galle, Zeiss... If only you were here...

Excuse me, Melady... Do you have
time for a brief talk?

Princess Guinivere! Yes, of course.

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC

Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC

Melady... I want to express how
thankful I am for all that you've
done for me.

...

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC
Guinivereギネヴィア

But we are surrounded by the Order
of Heroes here.

Although I may not be of much help,
I promised Prince Alfonse I would do
all I could for the people of Askr.

I would like for you to take up that
goal alongside me.

O-of course, Princess. I will do
anything you ask of me.

But...if something were to happen
to you, Princess Guinivere, I could
not bear it...

I believe I was summoned here to
protect you, and it is my duty to do
so at any cost.

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC
Guinivereギネヴィア

You are truly kind. You followed me
after I left Bern with no hesitation.
I have not forgotten.

...

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC
Guinivereギネヴィア

However. If the people of Askr
and I are ever both in danger...
I want you to help Askr.

But Princess Guinivere, I—

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC
Guinivereギネヴィア

Melady. Please. If the choice should
arise, defend my ideals over my life.

That is what I ask of you, Melady.
Surely you understand, don't you?

Defend your...ideals. Princess
Guinivere, I...

It seems I have failed to consider
the principles you hold so dear...

I am sorry to ask this of you, but...
please forget about the requests
I made of you the other day.

What's this? Change of heart?

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス

If that is what you wish, I will kindly
oblige. I do wonder what happened,
however. Will you tell us?

It was a...misunderstanding.
On my part.

Princess Guinivere has corrected me.
She asks that, between her and Askr,
we are to prioritize Askr's defense.

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク

...

The thing I ought to focus my efforts
on upholding is Princess Guinivere’s
principles. I realize that now.

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス

Princess Guinivere’s principles are
certainly worth upholding, then.

The many over the one, is it?

Seems like it should disqualify
her as royalty, but...means she's
got spine. I like that.

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinusマリナス

Melady, should you require anything,
you need only ask.

Right. Tell the princess she can
count on me anytime. The Dieck
Mercenaries are available to her.

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieckディーク
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Meladyミレディ

Thank you both. I am happy to
hear you feel this way.

I pushed my own ideas onto
Princess Guinivere...

I should have thought instead to
protect what she holds dear—her
principles and ideals included.

And those ideals connect back
to Askr and its future.

Galle... Zeiss... I will defend the ideals
of the princess here in this land, and
continue growing closer to its people.

That is the path I believe is right,
and so that is the path I will take.

Ah, hello, Nino. Say...am I dead?

Huh? This isn't the afterlife!
This is Askr. Why would you
ask something like that?

Nino Pious Mage Face FC
Nino
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus

It's only...I see a young Lord Eliwood
and Lord Roy standing next to each
other! What else should I believe?!

No, no no! It can't end like this...
There was so much more I had
planned for Pherae...

Umm... Merlinus? As Nino just said,
this is not the afterlife.

Fjorm Princess of Ice Face Pain
Fjorm

This is Askr. It's a different world
from your Elibe.

Here in Askr, Heroes from many
worlds and times have been
summoned and brought together.

Fjorm Princess of Ice Face FC
Fjorm
Nino Pious Mage Face FC
Nino

That's right...

That's why it isn't so strange to have
a young Lord Eliwood and Lord Roy
standing side by side here.

Wha— F-for such a place to exist
without my knowing... Incredible.

Hah. I truly thought that I had finally
lived out the last of my days and had
been summoned to the beyond.

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Fjorm Princess of Ice Face Smile
Fjorm

Ah. So then, you and Nino were both
summoned to Askr as Heroes... I look
forward to working with you both.

Mm-hmm! Erm, actually... B-back up
a moment there, if you would...

I'm a...Hero?

Ah, Princess Fjorm.

There is nothing wrong with my
body or my mood, per se, but...

...But?

Fjorm Princess of Ice Face FC
Fjorm
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus

Something you said before stuck
in my head.

I have been summoned here...
as a "Hero."

No question about it. You were
brought here like all other Heroes—
by 【Summoner】.

Fjorm Princess of Ice Face FC
Fjorm
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus

The trouble is...I have never
considered myself a hero.

Although I served House Pherae,
I am in truth little more than a
humble merchant.

And yet you were summoned to
Askr because this world has need
of you.

Whoever is summoned, all brought by
【Summoner】, are Heroes.

Fjorm Princess of Ice Face FC
Fjorm
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus

Y-you say that, but...tell me this.

When I came through the gateway,
did the summoner not sigh in clear
disappointment? "Oh... Merlinus."

Of course not! Please, Merlinus.
You needn't worry. There is a
reason you're here.

Fjorm Princess of Ice Face Pain
Fjorm
Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC

I am touched... You are too kind,
Princess Fjorm.

Of course. Just remember, you have
something to offer this world...

There you are, Merlinus. Say, would
you care to share some tea?

Oh my! It's the young Lord Eliwood!

I never thought these eyes would—
*sniff* Oh, how long I've lived!

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

I heard that you continued to support
Roy after my time. Thank you for
loyalty to House Pherae.

Think nothing of it! Compared to the
great debt I owe, anything I've done
has been nowhere near sufficient!

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

Merlinus... Do you remember the final
fight against Nergal?

Of course. How could I forget the
courage you and Lord Hector shone
with on entering the Dragon's Gate...

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

You stuck with us until the very end.

I swore to you both that I would
serve under you all my life. I'd not
leave you for any lesser reason!

That said, being with the two of you
is usually the safest place to be in
any given situation...

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

Your resolve was clear. Hector, too,
admired you for it.

Still...someone like me, someone who
can't fight, can be only a burden on
the battlefield.

Even with me at your side, I served
no real purpose, of that I'm sure!

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

I disagree! As I swung my sword
to strike against Nergal...

I could feel your focus and intent
right alongside my own, urging
me onward.

Lord Eliwood, I—

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

Those who fight on the front lines
are not the only heroes, Merlinus.

For anyone to fight at their very best,
they must have the support of others.

The title of Hero is equally as fitting
for those who offer such support.

I don't know what to say!

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Eliwood Knight of Lycia Face FC
Eliwood

Merlinus, to me, you are a great Hero.
Accept it, and hold your head high.

Ohh... Your kind words are wasted
on me, Lord Eliwood!

I will do all I can to live up to yo—
er, the Order's expectations!

I hope it is to your satisfaction.

That isn't all. Merlinus also organized

My ledgers can get...haphazard.
Sometimes. But he's been a real

a long time, so it was no trouble
at all. Happy to assist.

Merlinus
Fjorm Princess of Ice Face FC
Fjorm

I knew the Order of Heroes had
need of you...

Yes... I thought the very idea of me
being a Hero was a little laughable.

But if I can do something to help
the Order of Heroes...I will gladly
oblige anytime.

Merlinus Pheraes Clerk Face FC
Merlinus
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonse

Each and every Hero has their
roles to play...

And when we combine our strengths,
we grow and progress as a group,
and for that I am thankful.

That includes you, Merlinus, in case
there was any question in your mind.
We're glad to have you with us!

R-right! Just...leave it to me!

All right! And when we finish that,
we'll do something fun, right?
You better promise!

That is the reason I'm here, after all!

You have a brother? I had no idea!

Yes... And we come from a long
line of wyvern riders, all of whom

My brother Zeiss chose the path
of the wyvern rider too, and swore
an oath as a knight of Bern.

I, however, chose to follow Princess

Ylgr Fresh Snowfall Face Pain

Oh no... Does that mean you had
to fight against your brother?

Yes. And not just him... I crossed
blades with many former allies.

Great work today, Tryffin.

Rrrrr...

Tryffin
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Melady

To carry a wyvern rider of Bern,
you've trained since you were
very young, I know.

Brought up in Bern alongside
your clutchmates...

And just like me, you were separated
from your brood and forced to turn
against them.

I've given you a past you'd rather
not think of too, haven't I...

Rr. Grrrr...

Tryffin
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Melady

And now I've brought you to a whole
other world to keep on fighting...

I can't help but think you would
be better off flying away, free from
me...free to never to fight again.

...

Who's there?! Show yourself!

Ah! I-I'm sorry! I was going to speak
up, but I didn't want to interrupt.

Sorry, Miss Lilith. And...sorry also for
speaking so loudly you could hear.

N-not at all! I had no intention
of eavesdropping on you, though
I'm sure it must seem that way...

...

Umm... Melady. Tryffin has never
objected to anything you've done.

Tryffin is happy to fight together
with you—and is proud to have you
as a master.

Lilith Astral Daughter Face FC

Y-yes. Not only wyverns... I can
understand all animals.

Amazing. I knew the Order of Heroes
included people with all manner of
talents, but this I never expected.

Tryffin... Is it true? You are proud
to have me?

Grr... Rrrrr...

Tryffin
Lilith Astral Daughter Face FC
Lilith

You know, before you arrived,
Tryffin was telling me about a
clutchmate... Levrey, I believe?

Ah, yes. Levrey is Zeiss's—that is,
my brother's—wyvern... Then you
truly can understand animals.

Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Melady
Lilith Astral Daughter Face FC

While it is true that it was difficult
to face Levrey in combat, Tryffin's
loyalty to you never wavered.

Above all, Tryffin loves to fly
with you at the riens.

Grrr... Grr...

Tryffin
Melady Crimson Rider Face FC
Melady

Tryffin... There is no finer wyvern
than you. Truly.

Without complaint and of your
own volition you have stayed
with me through everything...

You have my word, Tryffin. I will
act in line with my ideals so you are
never forced to regret your loyalty.

And not just Melady, but Tryffin's
wings were practically splitting the
sky, they were moving so fast.

A person and a wyvern moving as
one like that requires more than
synchronized movement...

To build that sort of connection,
your hearts must be in sync as well.

I was feeling rather guilty about all
I've put Tryffin through before.

Forced to fight against Bern...
Brought to a world entirely
different from what we know...

But when you shared with me how
Tryffin feels, Miss Lilith... That, I
think, is what allowed us true unity.

Thank you, Princess Ylgr.

is the force behind your bond.

I promise.

over here.

Hey, wait a minute! Never heard of
a prince taking on the very work he
hired me to do before!

This is my job as a mercenary!
You should be the one to retreat.

Don't worry. I know the terrain,
so I have an advantage!

I can handle things from here.
There's no shame in falling back!
Now, go, quickly!

Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC

Understood. I'll regroup with Shanna

I still don't get it! The employer
staying on the field while the

I don't think it's all that strange...

people involved with the Order of

Oh? And why do you think that is?

The Order works with all sorts of

to put their lives on the line.

or commonfolk, or even where they
come from. All support each other.

Hey! Sort of like the Dieck

Hello, Dieck. You look like you have
something to say.

First, I want to thank you. And to
apologize for letting you, a prince,
take on my work.

But I appreciate you helping us out.

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieck
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonse

No need to thank me. You, Shanna,
and the rest have done plenty to
help me as well.

There is one thing I want to say,
though: You are the leader here.
You cannot be replaced.

When a situation like that comes up,
you should leave it to us mercs. It's
what we're here for.

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieck
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonse

There is no replacing you
either, Dieck.

Huh? What's that supposed to mean?

You trying to say we're all equals?
Look, Prince, you're a good person,
but if you fight with that attitude...

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieck
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face Cool
Alfonse

Those ruled by emotion cannot
themselves rule. That is what
my father taught me.

...

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieck
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonse

At the time, I was unable to retreat.
Had I, it would have placed the life
of 【Summoner】 at risk.

Everything would be lost if I held
my life so dear that I'd toss aside
【Summoner】's life.

Or the life of any of the incredible
Heroes who have been summoned
here, for that matter.

The value of my life, your life,
【Summoner】's life...

Weighing them all in my mind,
at that time, in that situation,
I called for what I thought best.

Having the person that knew the
terrain best stay behind, letting you
all regroup and bring support...

I thought that was our surest
road to victory.

So you see yourself as just another
unit in the field, someone to leverage
should the situation call for it...

You are a strange prince indeed.

But is practicality all that weighs
on your decisions?

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieck
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face FC
Alfonse

How do you mean?

You claim to lead without letting
emotion cloud your judgment...

But deep down, there's still a part
of you where that stops holding
quite so true. Am I wrong?

Dieck Wounded Tiger Face FC
Dieck
Alfonse Prince of Askr Face Normal2
Alfonse

...

A long time ago, I was abandoned
by my employer, sacrificed like
the pawn I was.

We were ordered to charge into
a trap to distract from their exit.

My comrades were all killed.
I was kept alive only so I could
be tortured.

Surely you see the practicality there.
You're not so naive that you can't
understand their reasoning.

But something tells me you'd find
reason to take a different course...

You say you act in everyone's best
interest, but you are two minds:
practical and noble.

Neither part seems fully convinced
by what the other is saying.

Of course, the occasional nobility
on your part doesn't mean we can't
get along.

I appreciate the invitation, but some
other time, perhaps. I was hoping

It's about the young Prince Zephiel
who has joined the ranks of Heroes...

Do you think it possible that he could
take a path other than King Zephiel's,
and envision another sort of future?

Hmm... I wonder...

I think if it's possible for him to walk
the same path, it's equally likely for
him to take an entirely new direction.

I think I've heard something like that
from 【Summoner】, at least.

Sharena Princess of Askr Face Normal2
Sharena
Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC

...

Oh, right! I've seen it in an entry

The histories we've recorded from
other worlds are each just one of
many possibilities.

And the possibilities are endless!

Sharena Princess of Askr Face FC
Sharena
Guinivere Princess of Bern Face FC

So then that means that it's possible
there's a world in which King Zephiel
does not bring upheaval to Bern?

If I share Bern's fate with the prince
and convince him of another course...
could we avoid such tragedy?

I don't see why not! Although, I can't
say I know for sure.

But even if you talk Prince Zephiel
out of following in King Zephiel's
footsteps, you never know...

It could grow into a situation you
never foresaw. You could cause
an entirely new tragedy!

I was. I am just another Hero here,
so I join them in order to improve
my swordsmanship.

I find I often learn more than just
sword technique. It’s a chance to
take in ideas from other worlds…

It has been a good way for me
to expand my outlook…

as many people as you can. And let
what you learn guide your future.

lessons to the benefit of Bern

I will not to waste this. After all, you

not anything I can prevent.

I cannot rip the root of his beliefs
from him. He must do that himself.

we would never understand each
other, even in the very end.

But I have to believe there’s a chance
that we can coexist without hatred
dividing us.

I pray Prince Zephiel chooses a path
more gentle than the king I knew.
One founded on his own principles.

I hope that light of hope stays with
him, whatever his future holds.
