Julius:  "When my mother and father passed away, my uncle became my adoptive father and took me in. It was he who introduced me to the culture and education of nobility… Thus, my way of life is a manufactured one."

Julius:  "A botched sham, more like it."

Julius:  "It may very well be. At heart, I may simply be the same child running through the fields in commoner’s clothes and laughing with friends, a rustic child who knows nothing of grander ideals." Clueless as to what proper decorum was and without any lofty ideals to maintain, just living his days to the fullest. That was the kind of future he could have expected. But then that future disappeared, carried away in the same flash flood that took his parents away from him.

Julius:  "Which is why I pretend myself a knight. I occupy myself with these pretensions, sealing away what some would call my true self."

Julius:  "Ignorant and unknowing, I encountered an ideal. I dreamed of becoming a knight. I wanted to become a gallant and upstanding figure. That aspiration is what brought me here." There was a renewed strength in Julius’s yellow gaze as he adjusted his cape. Reid had been annoyed, but now his expression showed suspicion. It was surprising that he stayed quiet even though he was being contradicted. The most outrageous, inconsiderate man was engrossed by Julius’s words. Julius continued in a loud voice.

Julius:  "I am an artless man. The superficial is often my first concern. I have come this far, believing that if I hold a splendid blade, wear impressive clothes, and speak with courtesy, I can become the man I want to be. And so I will continue holding on to that stubborn pride and pageantry." He knew there were people who despised such pretension. Natsuki Subaru was a perfect example. But Julius saw things differently.

Julius:  "Good posture, upholding appearances, striving to embody the kind of person you wish to be seen as—those are a measure of one’s determination to endure. That is the facade I have dedicated myself to and will never betray."

Julius:  "There are those who dismiss the value of appearances. However, I believe there as just as many who are dazzled by them. The same way I am so enthralled with knighthood." He couldn’t remember who first sowed the seeds of his admiration for knights. But in time, Julius became known as the Finest of Knights. The reason for that wasn’t his polished swordsmanship, nor his refined spirit magic. Nor was it the fundamental strength that underpinned both of those. It was because those around Julius Juukulius believed that the way he lived and the way of a knight were one and the same. Because his pomp and circumstance was so dazzling that it was the finest example they had of what a knight should aspire to be. With that, Julius’s expression softened as he turned toward Echidna.
