Archive File 1

A former host now assigned to Reserve Op Team A6.

Midnight was the most popular producer at a prominent host club in the Far East. He broke earnings record several years in a row, and was known as the Devil of the Eastern Night.

He tends to speak boldly, even claiming he's here as God's gift to women.

While he has never caused any real problems, he is still often a headache.

Archive File 2

Midnight doesn't know how he got infected. According to his own words, he was very quick to retire after his diagnosis.

After retiring, he found Rhodes Island through prior connections and came for treatment.

Then, after being in the program for a while, he made a peculiar request: He wanted work at Rhodes Island.

Archive File 3

Midnight finally became a member of A6.

At first, even in eccentric A6, Midnight was widely considered the most difficult person to get along with. But after a while, everyone realized he was actually kind and hardworking.

Even then, there are still many people, such as Orchid, who can't handle his wild boasts.

Archive File 4

When Midnight cares about someone, he gives his whole heart, but that means only a few people can reciprocate on the same level.

Since everyone is used to his hard work, they don't notice his exhaustion, which he wouldn't want them to notice, anyway. But it would be best for someone to check up on him once in a while.

Appointed as Assistant
Thank you for choosing me, Darling. Now, what kind of secret are you going to share with me under this velvet of the night?
Talk 1
Fiend of the Night? Ah, I can't hide anything from you. But past glory is nothing to me. After all, I have an even brighter future waiting.
Talk 2
I may work in a different place now, but my job is still the same, to put a smile on everyone's face.
Talk 3
I bet Ms. Orchid must have been born with a negative number on her happiness scale. Why else would she always look so stern whenever I'm there to light her up? If you know anything about her, please tell me.
Talk after Promotion 1
People say my swordsmanship is top notch. All due credit, I have to say. Practicing swordsmanship helps me maintain my figure and cultivate my elegance. It'd be a crime for me to slack off on the pratice. After all, you either keep the momentum and hold the lead or end up getting overwhelmed. Please keep that in mind.
Talk after Trust Increase 1
People used to say that I sold feelings as commodities, that I treated 'happiness' as a product. Fools, all of them. How can I expect my customers to open their hearts to me if I don't open mine to them first?
Talk after Trust Increase 2
I believe happiness can be contagious. It's a tangible atmosphere that truly exists. I feel the joy when others treat me with sincerity, and I will make sure my happiness reaches right into their hearts.
Talk after Trust Increase 3
My colleagues in team A6... they may be a bit weird, but they're truly kind souls. They're a gift from destiny, a gift that continues to remind me to cherish those important to me.
Idle
Now that I have some free time, I should read.
Onboard
Show me your brightest smile, my esteemed customer! Happiness is at arm's reach when you're by my side. Midnight, at your service.
Watching Battle Record
It's important to never stop learning!
Promotion 1
Whoa, so my hard work really paid off! Let's set up a champagne tower to celebrate. My treat.
Added to Squad
With me on your side, success is guaranteed!
Appointed as Squad Leader
Follow this handsome me!
Depart
Show me your spirit, everyone!

Behold, here comes my flamboyant moves!
Selecting Operator 1
Hmm?
Selecting Operator 2
What's up?
Deployment 1
I've arrived.
Deployment 2
OK.
In Battle 1
O sword, pierce the moonlight that veils the night!
In Battle 2
Bathe in fresh blood!
4-star Result
Impressive, Dr. {@nickname}, truly impressive. Your blazing brilliance almost stole my show today.
3-star Result
There's only one thing that's impossible for me: being imperfect.
Sub 3-star Result
Not too shabby. Such a heart-warming result calls for a little celebration.
Operation Failure
No need to look back. We'll greet each other with a smile next time.
Assigned to Facility
A wonderful place. Let's have a drinking party tonight.
Tap
There now, would you please leave my collar as it is?
Trust Tap
Thanks for taking care of me.
Title
Arknights.
New Year's blessing
Sometimes, it doesn't take flowery tricks to capture a customer's heart. See the fireworks here? The sight of them going off, even just for an instant, will be enough to focus all the customers' attention solely on me, their souls scorched by my gaze... Orchid? Why are you dragging me away?
Greeting
Good evening, Dr. {@nickname}.
Birthday
Happy birthday. You should set your work aside for today. We can chat until dawn, and I'll stick by your side if you want to watch the sun rise. But {@nickname}, I trust that you know what to say if Orchid asks why I didn't work overtime tonight.
Anniversary Celebration
What you see today is the fruit of all your hard work, {@nickname}. Nothing makes me happier than accompanying someone in admiring their own marvelous achievements. I do hope you'll still choose me to stay by your side this time next year.
