Julius:  Of course, it is also possible that the enemy would hesitate to attack greater numbers, but…” Though the casualties stung deeply, neither Julius nor Wilhelm gave any hint of losing his cool.
gpt
Subaru:  For his part, Subaru had been biting his lip enough to draw blood since the damage report began.
human
Subaru:  “…That ends my report. And yours?”
gpt
Julius:  “—! You don’t have anything else to say to me?”
human
Subaru:  “Necessary reports come first. I had thought to ask you for your report before all other matters, but…”
gpt
Julius:  In contrast to the emotional Subaru, Julius had a very calm demeanor. But as he replied, his forelocks were slightly askew, and there were traces of blood on his royal guard uniform. Of course, even he had not come through unscathed.
human
Subaru:  Gazing at the vestiges of intense combat, Subaru restrained his scattered emotions. “…At the very least, we beat the Sloth that attacked us just now.”
gpt
Julius:  “‘The Sloth that attacked us just now’…you say. Not a report to take solace in, it would seem.”
human
Subaru:  Subaru’s gloomy reply contained nominally good news, but Julius immediately homed in on the problem therein. The authority-using madwoman who had launched a surprise attack on the expeditionary force, whisking Subaru away from the battlefield, was an evil on par with the assuredly slain Archbishop of the Seven Deadly Sins—a being worthy of the title of Sloth.
gpt
Julius:  “The first stage of this operation should have taken out the Archbishop of Sloth. You were more confident of that than anyone ... yet, in spite of that, you call the earlier foe Sloth?”
human
Subaru:  “…Yeah, that’s right. The one just now was a Sloth—a second Sloth.”
gpt
Julius:  The last part of that statement—“a second Sloth”—made Julius knit his brows in dismay. But given the seriousness of Subaru’s gaze, combined with the events that had actually taken place, he offered no rebuttal. "So the first Sloth defeated was a different person from this Sloth. You are absolutely sure of this?”
human
Subaru:  “I’d never forget the look on that piece-of-shit bastard’s dead face. Plus, the second Sloth was a woman. There’s no way you’d mistake one for the other. There’s no way you would, but…” When Subaru had first encountered the madwoman, he’d hallucinated that it was Petelgeuse. That was because he sensed things beyond their appearances that tied Petelgeuse and the woman together. It felt as if their madness had sprung from a common root—

Subaru:  “The authority was the same, the words and actions were the same. I’ve got a reaaally bad feelin’ about this.”
human
Julius:  “Perhaps the first Sloth we defeated was a double, and the second Sloth was the real Archbishop of the Seven Deadly... No, there is no way to be certain of that. Besides, in this case, the real issue—”
gpt
Subaru:  “—Might be in a whole different league than which one was the real deal.”
human
Julius:  When Julius felt he might have speculated too far, Subaru picked up his conclusion and ran with it. The statement made sweat emerge on Subaru’s brow; even Julius’s face stiffened somewhat.
