Subaru:  “Right, Shau—”

Shaula:  “—! Subaru!! !”
human
Subaru:  As he called out and started to approach her, something grabbed his collar. The next moment, as he was dragged to the ground, a sharp tail furiously tore through the space he had just occupied. Subaru was speechless as he felt the passing wind and smelled something distinctly burnt in the air. If Julius had not pulled him back just now, that would have been a direct hit. But what hurt the most wasn’t the sensation of death, but…

Subaru:  “Hey, Shaula! Shaula! What was that?! Get ahold of yourself!! !”
human
Shaula:  “Sssssss.” Hearing his frantic plea, the crimson scorpion slowly adjusted itself, regaining its footing. Its compound eyes shook as it stood back up, but it slowly locked on to Subaru while spittle dripped from its ferocious fangs. That didn’t look like the behavior of a rational creature…

Julius:  “Subaru, I’m sorry to say…” Julius grabbed Subaru’s shoulder and started to step forward.
human
Subaru:  Knowing what he was thinking, Subaru grabbed him by the arm and stopped him. He understood Julius was trying to bear the unpleasant role himself. But he wasn’t going to let that happen. “I decided to save her—I’m going to save her.”
gpt
Julius:  “Out of duty to a pupil you cannot recall?”
human
Subaru:  “No.” Subaru shook his head. That wasn’t it. He didn’t want to help her because he was her master or anything. “It’s not because I’m her master. I’m doing it because I was moved by her.”

Julius:  “”
human
Subaru:  “She’s like Beako. All alone in this tower in the sands, crying in joy from the couple days we spent here together. How can I abandon someone like that?” Gritting his teeth, Subaru maintained his grip on Julius’s arm.

Julius:  Looking back at him, Julius exhaled. “…You are as stubborn as ever. But that is how it should be.”
human
Subaru:  “Julius?”
gpt
Julius:  “No, I was just astonished yet again. Once you start putting on airs, they must be maintained till the very end.” Julius smiled slightly as he touched the scar on his left cheek.

Subaru:  Subaru’s eyes narrowed, and he noticed something soft in his open left hand. Looking, he saw Beatrice there. She was looking at Subaru with those big, round eyes that were more adorable than anything.
gpt
Beatrice:  “Meili is through the worst of it. All that is left is…”
human
Subaru:  “Can you help me bring her out?”
gpt
Beatrice:  “Betty would be a terrible friend if she said ‘no’ now… You really are a helpless partner, Subaru.”
human
Subaru:  Subaru scratched his cheek with an awkward smile. And then, holding hands with the great spirit he was contracted with, he faced the crimson scorpion—Shaula. Two spirit knights stood shoulder to shoulder, across from a crying girl who needed to be saved. And… "My body and spirit are exhausted…so hurry up and let us save you, Shaula!"
