Julius:  "Perhaps he simply wants to see it for himself—the silver-petaled dance between these swordsmen from the kingdom and the empire."

Julius:  Almost at the same moment Julius spoke, a murmur ran through the watching crowd.

Reinhard:  Reinhard van Astrea paused and smiled at Julius’s voice. The Sword Saint, returned from his inspection, chose a spot several feet away from Cecils and bowed politely. "A pleasure to see you again, Master Cecils. Permit me to welcome you to our kingdom."
gpt
Cecils:  "And allow me to apologize for showing up without warning you. I thank you for accepting my impetuous request. Got to say, I’m really surprised."
human
Reinhard:  "Are you now?"
gpt
Cecils:  "Mm. Assumed you would turn me down flat. But I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask."
human
Reinhard:  Reinhard only smiled wider at Cecils’s directness.
gpt
Cecils:  The man in blue pointedly tapped the hilts of his swords, saying, "You must be tired after such a long trip, but I’m afraid I’m not in any position to hang around here myself. I know that makes things a little unfair—hope you won’t hold a grudge."

Cecils:  "It was my choice to accept your request. I won’t seek any further excuses for my performance."
gpt
Cecils:  "Ah, that’s a swordsman. All right, then—" The precombat formalities concluded, Cecils went over to the wall and removed his sandals. Chisha took them from him, and the two envoys from the empire proceeded to have some sort of conversation.

Julius:  Julius took advantage of the moment to go over to Reinhard and speak to him as well. "Reinhard, I must say, this—"

Ferris:  "Why’d you say yes to such an idiotic request? Are you as stupid as he is, Reinhard?"
human
Julius:  "Ferris…" Julius interjected.
gpt
Reinhard:  Reinhard’s eyes widened, but he responded to Ferris’s attack with no more than a smile and a shrug. "I won’t deny I have a bit of a foolish streak, but I don’t think it’s idiotic to do this. Though, I am touched you’re so worried about me."
human
Ferris:  "First Julius, now you, Reinhard… Nobody cares about Ferri’s feelings…"
gpt
Reinhard:  "True, Master Cecils’s request came as quite a surprise. But the captain had a say, too. Go out there and show him just how strong Lugunica is! he told me." Reinhard, trying to imitate Marcus, dropped his voice to a forced growl that didn’t particularly resemble the captain’s at all.
