Wilhelm:  "Is there any chance that your wife and the empire’s general are somehow both still alive…?"
gpt
Wilhelm:  “…No, it is not possible. My wife and Kurgan are both dead. That is an indisputable fact. However, there is a fool somewhere on this earth who has disgraced their memories in death.” Wilhelm gritted his teeth as he confirmed that his wife really was dead.

Subaru:  Subaru thought about that. —A blasphemous desecration of the dead. In other words, a type of necromancy. Some sort of magic to manipulate corpses was a staple of fantasy genres. Naturally, in a fictional world, it would not be that odd for a magic for reviving the dead to exist, but there was no convenient magic like that in this world. The dead could not be revived. That was an unwritten ironclad rule that Subaru had learned over the course of the past year and change. So Kurgan and Theresia’s being there was not the result of resurrection, but of someone using magic in order to turn the dead into puppets.

Wilhelm:  “There were once those who could manipulate the dead using a forbidden technique. During the Demi-human War decades ago, several people joined the demi-human side during the kingdom’s internal struggle and became the kingdom’s greatest enemies by raising a host of corpses to add to their ranks.”

Subaru:  “The kingdom’s greatest enemies, capable of raising a host of the dead…”

Wilhelm:  “The hero of the demi-humans Libre Fermi, the great strategist Valga Cromwell, and—” Wilhelm paused for a second. "The witch Sphinx. A being most foul who caused an ocean of blood to be spilled by both humans and demi-humans alike without even batting an eye. The one and only witch other than the Witch of Envy who left her bloody name in the kingdom’s history.”
human
Wilhelm:  Wilhelm named a witch Subaru had never heard of before. The witches Subaru knew were Envy—Satella—and the six others associated with the deadly sins, whom he’d met in Echidna’s tomb. That there were more witches came out of nowhere.

Subaru:  “Then, do you think that that Sphinx is connected with this situation now?”
human
Wilhelm:  “No. My apologies, I was not clear enough. The witch Sphinx was destroyed back during that war and is most certainly dead. She is surely not connected to the current incident.”
gpt
Subaru:  “She’s dead? You’re sure, right? A witch pretending to die in order to be able to act freely sort of fits the mental image I have of them.”
human
Subaru:  There was the way Satella appeared whenever Subaru came close to the taboo of revealing his Return by Death ability, and there was the way Echidna was living it up in her domain after having died, too. “They don’t die no matter how many times you kill them, almost like cockroaches…”
gpt
Wilhelm:  “I cannot speak to the sort of impression you may have of witches, but Sphinx was merely referred to as a witch out of convenience.
