Fifth Round: Battle Begin

DIEEE!

Our nations died out long ago, my old rival.

But humanity, though it does face a host of problems, is still alive and well.

Which means that we can now face each other not as kings, but as warriors, with nothing holding us back!

Well fought! If this is what I have to look forward to the next time I'm summoned, I should have a grand old time!

Well, I'm glad one of us is happy about this! Ugh, I'm so done! I'm going to take a nice long break until we get back to Chaldea.

HOORAAAY...!

It would seem history has repeated itself, my old rival. Though this time, our clash is but a part of a larger whole.

Maybe that will help you come to terms with this outcome, Darius. Rest in peace, and in the knowledge that you fought with honor.

He's really playing this up, isn't he... Oh well, as long as he's okay with it, I guess that's all that matters.

Huh? What are you talking about?

Huh? Wait. You mean you still don't know?

Both Rider and I are just pieces in this game. And we're far from the only ones.

Wait! What do you mean?

Are you saying...I'm just like you two?
