Warrior from The "Lightless World" | |||

| Like you've observed...I am from Lost Blue...just like you are. | |||
 Othima |
I knew it. It's been a while since I've heard that name. Brings back memories. | ||
 Venus |
Lost Blue...? Weren't you from my country? | ||
Othima |
No, after I was chased out of Lustburg...sorry, out of this country, I moved around from place to place, but... After a few years, I finally arrived at Lost Blue. Although, the period I was there wasn't too long. | ||
| I've heard much about you along with many anecdotes. They say that Captain Othima of Lost Blue is a hero. | |||
Othima |
Huh...?! Aww, come on. Stop it. That was a long time ago. | ||
| For you, Captain Othima, it may seem like a long abandoned past, but... For us from Lost Blue, you are a symbol of hope. | |||
Othima |
Ah, no, it's not necessarily a past I've abandoned...um, you know it's not really good to do that. It's a bad habit of people from Lost Blue to always think of things in a negative way. | ||
Venus |
Do you two know each other? Wait, don't tell me... | ||
Othima |
Hey...don't get any strange ideas! I don't know anything about her! We just happened to be from the same village... | ||
| Perhaps it's best to call it the same province? | |||
Othima |
Yes, that's it! The same province! We're from the same province! That's the only thing... | ||
| As this is the case, I have been requested by our leader to deliver a message to you, Captain Othima. | |||
Othima |
From your leader? To me? What is it? | ||
| As you are also from Lost Blue, would you like to join our cause? | |||
Othima |
Huh? Are you saying that you want me to quit the Holy Guard and join you guys? | ||
| Yes...to put it bluntly. | |||
Othima |
Hmm. I appreciate the invitation, but that'll be a little difficult. | ||
| ...Is it because you want to abandon your past in Lost Blue? | |||
Othima |
No, it's not a matter of that. The truth is that, more than an adventure-filled life, I'd like to live a calm and stable one. | ||
| Huh...? | |||
Othima |
Besides, more than anything...I don't think I can keep up with your principles. | ||
| ...What do you mean? | |||
Othima |
You do not hesitate to kill people to achieve your goal. That's what you were just doing right now. | ||
| Placing your objective as the main priority seems like the standard thing to do. | |||
Othima |
I don't intend to change my opinion about your way of doing things. Just thinking of becoming one of you is enough to make me feel sick. | ||
| In other words, you won't agree to my proposal? If you cannot accept it, I was told that I must take your life. | |||
Othima |
I thought as much. That being said, I don't plan to go down so easily. | ||
| Are you sure about that? Sword! | |||
Othima |
?! ...You're fast! | ||
| ... | |||
Othima |
Uhaa! You're so dangerous. What's with that speed?! | ||
Venus |
Uck...! | ||
Othima |
No, you won't manage that! She'll already have her blade at you before you can finish chanting the spell! Your Highness, please just focus on avoiding her attacks! | ||
Venus |
In that case, what am I supposed to do? You won't have enough time to chant your spells either, right? | ||
Othima |
That's true. What should we do about it? | ||
Later... | |||
Othima |
... | ||
| My apologies, but I must obtain the Sacred Stone. That's all there is to say. | |||
Othima |
No way...! How did you come up behind me so fast?! | ||
| ...It's over. | |||
Othima |
Agh-aghhh!!! ...What's going on? | ||
| ?! Ughh...! A magic fortification...?! | |||
Othima |
You're too fast for me to keep up with, so I have no choice but to make you come to me instead, right? | ||
| You made an opening on purpose...? | |||
Othima |
I don't like the idea of turning a girl from my province into solid ice, but the situation calls for drastic measures. Don't think badly of me. Ill Atmosphere!!! | ||
| Aghh...!!! | |||
Othima |
Whew. I'm sorry, Your Highness. I don't know how to put it...I got you involved in my past as well. | ||
Venus |
No...but her magic attack... | ||
Othima |
It's all right. I've already poured the highest amount of energy into her. Not even the strongest magic defense in this world will be able to penetrate it. As someone who shares some of my past, I feel responsible in helping her see the error of her ways. | ||
 ??? |
I feel...honored...that you would think that way of me. | ||
Othima |
?! | ||
Venus |
Wh-what the...? Her left eye is glowing red... | ||
Othima |
...! Get down!!! | ||
| ...Axe! | |||
Othima |
No way! Argh! Was it too shallow? Ill Atmosphere!!! | ||
| ... | |||
Venus |
Her left eye is shining red again! | ||
Othima |
Is her left eye melting the ice?! Is it a Philosopher's Stone or something?! | ||
| Thank you...Sol... | |||
Venus |
Agh...! | ||
Othima |
Your Highness! | ||
| I won't lose to you...as long as I'm protected by the power that you've given me. | |||
Othima |
That impossible. Why doesn't it work?! Using a Philosopher's Stone shouldn't be enough to melt my ice... | ||
| This ice...it's warm... | |||
Othima |
...?! | ||
| We are still...living in that lightless world. Compared to that painful life...even your ice radiates warmth... | |||
Othima |
!!! Ac-ackk...! Piercing Light!!! | ||
Venus |
Behind you...! | ||
Othima |
?! | ||
| I am one of the Veda Templars...Acht, the 7 Tactics Master. In order to realize the ideals of Sol...I cannot afford to lose. Gauntlet! | |||
Othima |
Aghh...!!! | ||
