Julius:  A knight eternally strives for greater heights, ever willing to cast his life aside, coughing up blood, to protect whatever greatness stands behind him. That is the ultimate honor of those qualified." With classical nobleman’s thinking, Julius stomped on Subaru’s feelings, rejecting the essence of his very existence. And every knight there felt the exact same way. Not a single person in that place acknowledged Subaru as a knight.

Subaru:  "—Even so, I’ll make Emilia king."

Julius:  "I do not understand. In the face of such rejection, why are you still even here?" Cold glances from throughout the chamber watched Subaru’s recklessness with scorn and contempt.

Subaru:  But Subaru couldn’t feel any of that. He felt something far stronger—the gaze of the silver-haired girl behind him. He felt Emilia. He couldn’t look back. He didn’t have the courage. Feeling her presence, he hesitated for a brief moment, and then answered. "—Because she’s special."

Julius:  Julius’s eyes widened slightly in apparent surprise. However, the surge of emotion was immediately concealed when his face calmed again. "You are obstinate. I accept that you have a reason for standing here regardless of whether you are qualified or not. In that case, I have nothing more to say to you." Julius turned his back to Subaru as if he was returning to the line of candidates. But his very first step halted, and his head alone turned back toward Subaru. "—However, do not think that I accept you as a knight, or ever will."

Subaru:  "What are you…"

Julius:  "I understand that you esteem her enough that you wish to protect her. However, your thoughts are… No, it would be ugly to elaborate deeply upon it." Julius shook his head, pitying Subaru. "A man who brings such an expression to the one he wishes to stand beside…is not a knight."

Subaru:  Subaru’s thoughts shifted behind him. Everything felt cold. He wondered what kind of look was on Emilia’s face. He was too frightened to find out. That was why the next thing out of Subaru’s quivering lips was a transparent attempt to get in the last word. "Y-you’re saying that whether you can be a knight or not is settled from birth? What, every one of you was a golden child, the best at everything? Don’t make me laugh. You’re not the one who gets to be called the knight among knights around here. Don’t think anything you say can get to me."

Julius:  It was a cheap insult. But Julius did not display his emotions as he casually replied. "Subaru Natsuki, you said? You should know that speaking such cheap insults to others diminishes not only your own worth, but damages the worth of everyone around you. Subaru Natsuki.—There is no beauty in it." And so, Julius summarized Subaru’s words and actions to date, rejecting them, and him, in one fell swoop. That single remark made Subaru realize that he, and his own conduct, had hit rock bottom.
