1. Before the battle
15 linesI detect a certain change in your expression.
Is that right?
You seem very pleased with yourself. I never thought your face would take on such a frighteningly cheerful look at the thought of killing me.
Too bad your thoughts are more frightening than your attack!
Why, because you blocked it with your arm? You see, my brush doesn't sever flesh. It severs names.
Hng!
The name of your arms has just been sliced in two.
As of now, all you've got is a pair of "ar."
They feel heavier, don't they? That's because their strength has been cut in half, and so has their ability. Your arms can only function at half-capacity now.
............
Your sword swing has become as soft as a gentle breeze.
And now your name as well!
Agh!
The once-great Quincy leader whose power has been cut in half... Tell me, how does it feel to have been chopped in two...
...made half the man you once were by the leader of those Soul Reapers whom you hate so much?
2. Before the boss
17 linesWell, Yhw, it seems that even a thousand years wasn't long enough for you to learn the meaning of repentance.
But it doesn't matter now... You're not on a deadline anymore. You shall have all eternity to repent.
Hmpf...
Now raise them! Silver emblems, ashen meadows, circular path buried in light.
Eye of agate, tongue of gold, and skull cup. Coffin of Adnyeus. The object we raise...is your heart!
Auswählen.
What is that light?
Damn it, my wings.
Is it taking away our powers?
It isn't their Reishi that's being sucked up, but the living power of their very souls.
What is this? What is going on, Your Majesty? Why are you doing this to us?!
Arrghh!
Just what the hell are we to you, anyway?!
My comrades.
Stealing the power of your own comrades. How ruthless you are.
That's what comrades are for. To revive us, to resurrect us...
...and to help us move forward.
3. After the battle
4 linesThe moment has arrived. Time to spread your wings... Stern Ritter!
No one in this world has the power to deprive me of those things that belong to me.
And everything belongs to me. Everything that exists in this world. Not even the Soul King can escape my power.
My children, let us begin.
