Bianca: Stigmata

It's been a while, Commandant. What is with the surprised look? I just had a frame update. Bianca, the Purifying Force captain, will be at your service as always.

A long journey awaits us. Let's move on, Commandant.

I don't need honor or commendation... But your approval still delights me.

The frame's performance has been greatly enhanced... Rest assured, Commandant. I am confident I will master this power.

I wonder how much my swordsmanship can improve... Commandant, I hope you'll be there to bear witness.

A new weapon? Thank you, Commandant. I will not fail your expectations.

Time to eliminate the threats. I await your orders, Commandant.

Team battle? Leave it to me.

Mission complete. Go claim the rewards, you deserve them.

What is your order, Commandant?

Will it bring you additional trouble if we are too close?

Other Purifying Force members? I can introduce them to you if you are interested. It's just that... You should be mentally prepared, as many of them have distinct personalities.

A "fence sitter," huh...? I firmly believe everything is worth saving. Our ability to take lives is all the more reason why we must live by that code.

A "witch"... Yes, some people call me that, but it was my choice to actually become one. I have never regretted that decision.

Even if I cannot become the "light" that guides others, I still take honor in exploring the essence of "darkness."

I have almost mastered the sword. Unlike when using the bow, I can now fight side by side with Commandant... That's really wonderful.

More and more people have gathered around you. Their trust and expectations can be your strength, but sometimes they can also be disorienting... Still, just as you have always believed in me, I believe in the strength of your heart.

What do I do during my free time? Watch movies, read... Or hang out with her in my memories... Does that sound a little boring? What about you, Commandant? What do you usually do?

If I turn into a real "witch" one day, I hope you can point your sword at me without compassion. Do not hesitate... for that will be a betrayal to me.

I don't think the tragedy of this world will end in my hands. But as long as you still have hope, my sword will always be your strongest defense.

If only I could have met you earlier... My apologies. Please forget my foolish words. I don't want anyone else to see that fragile side of me.

Back on the earth, I spent my childhood on a snowy plain. It was the most beautiful scene in my memory until... When everything has ended, if we ever have a chance, would you go there with me, my Commandant?

Faith gives people motivation, but only the heart can tell them where their destination lies. My answer... is right here in my eyes... Can you see it?

The Gray Raven is a symbol of light, but hope does not consist of light alone. Can I be your shadow, my Commandant?

This is where I was abandoned when I was born, where my dream came to an end. But flowers and sunlight have given this place new memories, and when you're here, I can't help but wonder... how nice it'd be if time would stop, so that the one I miss could stay here in this moment.

Please hold off on private conversation until off-work hours, Commandant.

Commandant, here is my application to change my personal itinerary. I believe we should engage in more interactions to improve our bonding.

Our relationship seems to be continuously improving. Is this what you have desired?

Are you enjoying the time spent with me? I'm glad to hear that.

I once wanted to be strong enough to face every challenge by myself... But I no longer need that. I have learned that real strength lies in facing all obstacles alongside those who are important to me.

Am I using too many polite words? Sorry, it's just a habit. I guess too much etiquette isn't appropriate given our relationship. If you don't mind... I can just call you my Commandant from now on.

Perhaps we can have a more private time the next time we are alone... There are many other things I'd like to try with you, my Commandant.

My Commandant, whenever you are lost, I will light the path forward for you. In return, you must do the same for me. Yes, this is a promise. An oath between you and me that must not be broken.

I appreciate your kindness, Commandant.

I can feel the sincerity in your gift. It's my great pleasure.

A tea party invitation? I see. Allow me to come after some preparation.

I once read that a relationship is reinforced through mutual giving and receiving. It's my turn to give something back now, Commandant.

What shall I give to Commandant... Oh, don't worry, I was just thinking about what kind of present you would possibly like. It's more interesting than I thought.

Commandant, can you feel my thoughts?

My Commandant, hope every moment we spend together can give strength to support ourselves.

My Commandant, please take my sword... This is the most precious gift I can think of.

Stay focused, Commandant. We still have a mission.

Karenina told me a method to quickly improve focus. It involves hitting a location on one's head regularly with a blunt weapon... Hmm, looks like you're refreshed. Good.

You seem a little distracted. Would you like to take a walk outside? I'll be with you if you'd like me to, of course.

In an environment full of unknowns, the slightest ignorance could be fatal... But I guess you are tired of such advice. It's okay, you can take some time off. I will keep it a secret.

What are you thinking, my Commandant? There is no need to tell me. I can understand just by looking in your eyes.

Over-exhaustion is harmful to your health, Commandant.

You have worked hard enough today. Please take time to rest. That's my suggestion—and it can also be an order if necessary.

If you collapse, this entire place will become a mess. But don't worry, as long as I'm still here, I will not allow that to happen.

Commandant, you don't have to overstretch yourself. I already know very well what kind of person you are.

It's about time to rest. Don't worry, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow... Until the unforeseen future, I will always be here waiting for you.

It's good to be on time, Commandant.

Morning, Commandant. What's this? I was asked to assess your behaviors. Don't worry, there aren't any poor records so far.

Looks like you need some reliable assistance, Commandant. Please bring me on your mission.

Did you have a good night's sleep? Did you have a dream...? What kind of dream was it? Please tell me if you have some spare time.

I like that look in your eyes, Commandant. I look forward to your performance today.

My Command... Commandant! Please forgive my rudeness. I didn't realize you were already here.

Before you bring dawn to this world, allow me to accompany you through the long, dark night.

Even when the time to part has come, my Commandant, please don't forget that our paths will cross at the same destination again.

When you weren't here, I could see that dream again—the one woven together from the data left behind. Its ending is changing little by little. Sometimes, it doesn't end at the church, and sometimes, the renegades aren't the enemies... The only thing that never changes... is that I always end up finding you. Perhaps that isn't what's calculated, but what I want.

You have come. How long have I been waiting? I don't see a need to make a record, because I believe that you will eventually come back.

This is a meaningless move, Commandant.

...If you were trying to make me panic, you have failed, Commandant.

Danger...! Commandant, stand next to me—Hmph... Forget about it...

Commandant, it is very childish to attract someone's attention in this way.

Ever heard of a game called "five finger fillet", Commandant?

Commandant... Do you want to see me upset?

Another day well-spent. Great work, Commandant.

Tracking, analyzing, returning... Beginning extermination.

Here is my vow—I shall purge you from this earth.

Evil will not be tolerated!

Extermination!

It's too late to confess!

Judgement!

Resistance is futile!

Justice!

Behold, the final light.

I declare the end of this nightmare!

Time is running out...!

A tough adversary...

My faith... will never perish...

I will stay the course.

Exposing weakness.

So this is how it ends... May you rest in peace.

May the petals of this flower cover this snow field in the end.
