Adventurer Stories Episode 1 Commander of the Archangels Please note that this story contains spoilers for both parts of the Faith Forsaken event. Sandalphon: I have signed the document. Now if you would please place your signature here? Euden: Aaand...there we go. Sandalphon: I am sorry to take up so much of your time, but this is a necessary bit of paperwork that must be done before we can join forces with you. Euden: Oh, I've had much worse bureaucracy sessions, believe me. Besides, it's worth it knowing we can count on your help. Sandalphon: You were of great assistance during the incident with Satan, so it is only natural for us to return the favor in kind. Sandalphon: I give you my word now: In times of emergency or strife, both angels and apostles will be there to assist you. Euden: Thank you. I'm quite looking forward to working with you. Cleo: And now for the refreshments! This is the least we can do for making you come all the way out here. Sandalphon: There is no need for treats. It is my job to offer support in an organizational capacity, so I tend to visit many places. Honestly, I don't feel it's especially arduous. Sandalphon: Instead of snacks, perhaps you might permit me to observe the goings-on here at the Halidom? Sandalphon: I've heard bits and pieces from the apostles, and this is a fine opportunity to see it all for myself. Euden: We'd be happy to show you whatever you like. You mind playing tour guide, Cleo? Sandalphon: ...I see. Just as was reported, this castle is a mixing pot of all sorts of people from all manner of places. Cleo: Yes, His Highness's personality tends to attract a wide variety of people. Cleo: Though there are a few troublemakers— Sinoa: Oh no. No, no, NO! I did it AGAIN! Cleo: Gya! ...Looks like Sinoa is at it again, and with such impeccable timing. Cleo: I cannot apologize enough for frightening you, Sandalphon. I fear we have such explosions regularly here at the Halidom, but I promise they're harmless. ...Mostly. Sandalphon: Do not worry. The apostles informed me there was someone here who frequently failed in her experiments with space-time magic to spectacular effect. Cleo: Ah, well, that is a relief. Cleo: (Even if she DOES know about the explosions, how does she not even change expressions when it happens?) Cleo: (She is so cool and collected—though perhaps that is to be expected of the one in charge of all the angels.) Cleo: Well, that was all of the notable places within the Halidom. I certainly hope you found it to be a fulfilling time. Sandalphon: Actually, I would like to view your hidden technology if that is acceptable. Cleo: Hidden...technology? I'm, uh...not certain what you mean, Sandalphon. Sandalphon: The apostles informed me there was someone here with a most unusual device. Sandalphon: I wish to meet this person. I believe her name was... Xiao Lei: Let us begin with 8,512 and 4,030... *clackity* *clackity* Sandalphon: The speed with which this device can calculate is most impressive indeed. Cleo: Ah, now I understand. You wanted to see the abacus at work! Sandalphon: Correct. Expediting calculations will help my daily workload go much faster. Sandalphon: Running an organization requires running numbers as well, so bookkeeping is but another part of my job. Xiao Lei: Reeeally? You know, I think this might be the beginning of a beautiful friendship... Cleo: As the one charged with taking care of this castle, I understand your struggle all too well, Sandalphon. Cleo: Well, if there's anything we can help with, we would be more than happy to do so. Isn't that right, Xiao Lei? Xiao Lei: Math-molutely! In fact, why don't you take this spare abacus here? Sandalphon: No need. If you can but tell me how this is made and the secrets of its workings, that will be sufficient. Cleo: Er, are you certain? Sandalphon: Yes. Our agreement forms an alliance against strategic threats, but makes no mention of exchanging goods or materials. Sandalphon: More importantly, our commander, Regina, specializes in tools such as this. Sandalphon: ...And that is all there is to know about the abacus. Can you replicate it? Regina: A calculation device from the eastern country of Taiwu, eh? Sure, sounds fun. Regina: Though I have to say, it's pretty unusual for you to request something from me. Sandalphon: Yes, I suppose this is something of a first. Regina: Well, I don't mind in the slightest. Sounds like this abacus will make your work go by much faster. Regina: Anyway, just hang around for a bit and I'll give you all you asked for and more. Sandalphon: Thinking back, I don't believe I have ever asked a commander for a favor—not even once during the hundreds of years I served Metatron. Sandalphon: So why now? Episode 2 Regina's Invention Regina: Here's the prototype for that abacus you wanted. What do you think? Sandalphon: My thanks. Er, but there appear to be quite a few differences in appearance from the one I saw at the Halidom. Regina: Well, I didn't want to just COPY it. I figured if I was going to build it, I might as well improve it. Regina: The abacus device makes calculating faster, but it doesn't directly display the result in numbers. Regina: So I thought I'd hook it up to my tablet and have it display the results there like so. Sandalphon: That is most convenient indeed. This will make my work go by quite smoothly. Regina: Well, I'm glad my little invention can be of some assistance to you. Sandalphon: And in order to make my work even more efficient, I'd like to ask for an additional function to be added as well. Sandalphon: Would it be possible to have it not only display the results of my calculations, but also keep them as a log? Regina: I thought you might ask for that, so I already added it. Oversight is not a word in this gal's dictionary. Sandalphon: I should have expected nothing less. You have my thanks. Sandalphon: My, my. I never thought I'd be finished with the bookkeeping so quickly. Sandalphon: This took half the time it normally would. The effectiveness of the abacus certainly shows now. Ramiel: I have returned. Hmm? Well, that's quite the unusual device you have there. Sandalphon: It is a calculation device from the east called an abacus. Raphael: An abacus?! Cooool! I saw one of those bad boys when I was out on one of my many journeys. Raphael: Er, but I don't think I remember them looking like this? Sandalphon: Regina enhanced it so it shows the results of one's calculations and also records them. Sandalphon: I suppose it's now something different from a standard abacus and more an invention of her own devising. Raphael: Man, Regina just continues to impress. Gabriel: She certainly does! She's helped us countless times with her clever tools. Sandalphon: Yes, we've had many strong commanders before, but Regina is special. Sandalphon: She is exceptionally bright, and her research is second to none. She reminds me very much of Metatron. Ramiel: I'd certainly agree that her wit is on par. Ramiel: While the angels' communication system was created by Metatron, Regina achieved a thing very similar through alchemy. Raphael: I know, right?! We were all separated and cut off, but she pulled us right back together before we could say boo. Gabriel: Her commands were exactly the right moves to make at the right times. It was almost like she could see the future. Raphael: Before we knew it, the whole war had been turned to our advantage. Gabriel: Perhaps Regina is more cut out for leadership than even Metatron was. Gabriel: Metatron was a little...stubborn at times, wasn't she? Raphael: Ugh, you can say that again! I mean, sure, she was reliable and all, but it was like she didn't even need us around. Raphael: She wouldn't tell anyone about the important stuff and usually ended up just doing everything on her own. Ramiel: As I recall, the battle against Satan a thousand years ago was a one-on-one affair between the two of them. Ramiel: On that front, I think Regina understands the value in working together with people. Sandalphon: I agree. I believe Regina's leadership qualities are as good as, if not better, than Metatron's. Sandalphon: Her inhumanly quick wit makes her a flawless leader to both apostle and angel. Angels: ...... Sandalphon: Is something amiss? If you have opinions on the matter, I would hear them now. Raphael: Well, this is more of a feeling than an opinion, but I'm just surprised at how much faith you have in Regina. Gabriel: Indeed, you never say what you're thinking, so such high praise is doubly surprising. Ramiel: I'd say it's simple enough to deduce as much, but it's easier on all of us when you voice your thoughts as you just did. Sandalphon: Understood. Then as you wish, I will state my opinion once more. Sandalphon: I believe Regina is the commander with the most aptitude for the job in our history, and I expect much from her in our future endeavors as well. Sandalphon: The city of Grams, the Church, and all of us here took great damage when Satan was revived, yet I believe there is nothing to fear in the future. Sandalphon: With someone as reliable as Regina as our commander, I know for a certainty that we will overcome such hardships. Ramiel: Now I understand where you're coming from. It seems I underestimated just how strong your faith in her is. Ramiel: And while that's not bad on its own, emotions can occasionally dull our ability to make proper decisions. Ramiel: Excessive faith in someone can easily turn into blind faith. Do bear that in mind. Sandalphon: I understand. Rest assured, my assessment of her comes from objective fact. There are no emotions involved whatsoever. Ramiel: In that case, it seems I am worrying over nothing. Ramiel: (But I cannot help but think Sandalphon is comparing Regina to Metatron far too much...) Ramiel: (I hope I am simply imagining it.) Episode 3 The Limits of Humanity That day, the angels and apostles all set out on an important mission. Sandalphon: Hearken to my voice. This village has been occupied by a neighboring country, and our mission is to free it and rescue the captive priests and believers. Sandalphon: You will charge in from all four sides of the village. Rescue the hostages and annihilate any enemies you find. Sandalphon: We will inform you when it is time to move. Please stand by until then. Over. Sandalphon: I have briefed the apostles on our plan and will leave the commands to you, Regina. Regina: ...... Sandalphon: Is something the matter? Regina: Oh, sorry. Good work relaying that info. Regina: ...Okay, you know what's bugging me? We JUST finished cleaning up the Satan mess, and now we have to deal with invaders. There's not even time to breathe. Sandalphon: I believe that is by the enemy's design. Grams suffered massive losses with Satan's revival, making this the best opportunity for them to make a move. Regina: I know. And just as they hoped, we let them waltz on in and take this village within our borders. Regina: But regardless, their tyranny ends now; I've got a trick up my sleeve for this particular mission. Regina: By Her name, we'll show them that the territory of Grams remains protected by Ilia's grace! Sandalphon: Everyone has arrived at their designated positions. Regina: Good. Let the angels and apostles know the operation is starting. Sandalphon: Nevin and Ramiel have encountered hostiles. Requesting orders. Regina: Initiate combat. If they can hold out for a bit, Pinon and Gabriel will meet them and catch the enemy in a pincer maneuver. Sandalphon: Understood. I will convey the information. Sandalphon: Nevin and Pinon have met up. They carried out their pincer attack and defeated the enemies. Sandalphon: (Regina's strategies truly are amazing. She knows exactly what is happening on the battlefield even from this distance.) Regina: ...... Sandalphon: Regina? We await further orders. Regina: Hmm? Oh, sorry. Uh, just tell Pinon and Nevin to stand by. Sandalphon: (They're standing by at a time like this? This feels overly confident, but I am certain Regina has something planned.) Sandalphon: Understood. I will tell them. Regina: ...... Sandalphon: (This is odd. Regina hasn't given Nevin's group any new orders since having them stand by.) Sandalphon: (Even if this is part of her plan, they've been inactive for far too long. Perhaps I should ask her what she intends to—) Sandalphon: ...Yes, Raphael? What is it? Sandalphon: Understood! I'll tell Regina at once and request further orders. Regina: Bad news? Sandalphon: Ryszarda and Raphael are surrounded and struggling to fight off the enemy. Regina: Wait, that shouldn't be happening. What is Nevin's group doing? Sandalphon: They are on standby, and have been for some time now. Regina: What the hell?! I told them to stand by until they saw an opening to meet up with Ryszarda again! Sandalphon: You gave no such order. Regina: I didn't?! But that's... Regina: No... I swore I gave those orders... Did I only DREAM I gave them? Regina: I'm so sorry! This is all my fault! Regina: No. Apologies can wait. Right now, we need to get Ryszarda out of this. Tell them to deploy our secret weapon! Sandalphon: Understood. ...Ryszarda. Raphael. You have permission to use our secret weapon. Regina: This is a paralyzing smokescreen I made using chemicals created from alchemy. It'll stop the enemy in their tracks and let us regain our footing again. Afterward, Regina's orders became more focused. We continued the operation without any additional mishaps and freed the village. Regina: I'm so, so sorry. I can't apologize enough. Sandalphon: Might I ask for an explanation, Regina? It is not like you to forget an order, and I would like to know the reason. Regina: Overwork, most likely. I stayed up for days trying to develop that smokescreen, and it must have hit me harder than I thought. Regina: I knew we'd be in trouble if they used the hostages as human shields. Regina: I thought we needed something nonlethal that could immobilize the enemies while we rescued the hostages, so I was in a big rush to make it. Regina: But I overworked myself and wound up messing up my orders. I took my eye off the ball, and it cost us. Sandalphon: I understand. Regina: I need to really think about how this all went down. And when everyone gets back, I'll apologize to all of them as well. Regina: Anyway, I'm going to go. Please just let me sleep, all right? Sandalphon: I suppose I have no choice but to admit that Ramiel's warning was accurate. Sandalphon: I was so convinced Regina was a second Metatron that I may have overestimated her abilities. Sandalphon: No matter how much research she was doing, it would never have affected Metatron's ability to think. Sandalphon: I see the limits of a human now. It truly is a shame... Episode 4 The Two Masters Sandalphon: I have come to retrieve our documents. Do you have them prepared? Cleo: I do. These are all the records of our work in the Halidom for the month. Sandalphon: There don't appear to be any problems. Thank you for your time. Sandalphon: Now I must take my leave, as I have other work to attend to. Cleo: So soon? That's a shame—I was hoping to serve you this honey cake I made. Sandalphon: HONEY CAKE?! Cleo: Er, yes. I heard you loved honey, so I made a cake and was hoping you could try it. Sandalphon: I accept. I will revise my schedule to permit time enough for a light meal. Sandalphon: ...Oh, but this is delicious. The honey is so rich and flavorful—it is simply a marvel. Cleo: I am delighted to hear that the Halidom's special honey is to your liking. Sandalphon: Then the honey was harvested here? Now I am even more impressed. Cleo: I believe the high-purity mana that covers this land allows us to harvest a higher quality of honey than we might otherwise. Sandalphon: Yes, I can tell that the mana in this land is especially unique. Cleo: There is nothing like it anywhere else. King Alberius had quite the discerning eye. Sandalphon: Alberius is the name of the hero whose name is recorded in the annals of South Grastaea's history, is it not? Cleo: Yes. He founded the kingdom of Alberius three hundred years ago—and he was the first person I had the pleasure of serving. Cleo: I had protected this castle for three centuries before I met the prince. Sandalphon: Then you have served two different rulers? Sandalphon: Yes. Alberius, the kingdom's founder, and his descendant Euden. Sandalphon: Might I ask you a question? Cleo: Of course. Sandalphon: Do you ever compare the two? Sandalphon: More specifically, do you ever treat Euden as a kind of... second coming of Alberius? Cleo: I suppose I may have at first. After all, they are both able to form multiple dragonpacts. Cleo: But I do not compare the two any longer. Sandalphon: Why is that? Cleo: Because King Alberius had his own wonderful qualities and the prince has his. Cleo: King Alberius was a powerful warrior who rushed headlong into every battle with the hopes of all his subjects on his shoulders. Cleo: Meanwhile, the current prince is kind and considerate of his people's needs. He walks shoulder to shoulder with us and ensures we all progress as one. Cleo: Neither of these qualities are superior to the other. Sandalphon: ...... Sandalphon: (The relationship between Alberius and Euden is similar to that of Metatron and Regina.) Sandalphon: (A great predecessor and their successor, both with admirable qualities that cannot be weighed against the other.) Sandalphon: (Cleo is correct about that. I should not have been hoping Regina could be the very same as Metatron.) Sandalphon: Thank you for your input, Cleo. It was invaluable. Cleo: I am glad I could be of assistance. Cleo: You know, when I first met the prince, I was a bit bewildered by the type of relationship he desired of me. Cleo: I serve at his pleasure, yes—yet I stand side by side with him, and even scold him when the situation demands it. Cleo: I've come to realize that sort of closeness makes him the wonderful person he is. Cleo: We support and rely on each other, and that sense of fulfillment sets our relationship apart from the one I shared with King Aurelius. Sandalphon: Yes, I see. Interesting. Regina: Anyway, just hang around for a bit and I'll give you all you asked for and more. Sandalphon: Thinking back, I don't believe I have ever asked a commander for a favor—not even once during the hundreds of years I served Metatron. Sandalphon: So why now? Sandalphon: (I understand now why I was only willing to ask Regina for a favor.) Sandalphon: (I don't know when it happened, but Regina and I now support each other— and that request serves as proof.) Sandalphon: Would it be possible to have it not only display the results of my calculations, but also keep them as a log? Regina: I thought you might ask for that, so I already added it. Oversight is not a word in this gal's dictionary. Sandalphon: (We were sharing our opinions with each other and working as a team.) Sandalphon: (We work together to fulfill our goals. It is one of Regina's admirable qualities— and one Metatron did not possess.) Sandalphon: (Which means I should have...) Cleo: Is everything all right, Sandalphon? You've been quiet for some time now. Sandalphon: I thank you, Cleo. You have allowed me to do some important self-reflection. Sandalphon: I must now go apologize to Regina. Sandalphon: When Regina overworked herself and forgot to issue orders, I should not have been disappointed in her. No, there was something much more important to do! Episode 5 First Partnership Sandalphon: I have finished the bookkeeping. Now to check everyone's reports. Sandalphon: (I can apologize to Regina after I finish with the general duties that piled up while I was out.) Sandalphon: (I cannot permit my personal problems to get in the way of my work.) Sandalphon: Hmm. This report has some missing sections. I must ask Pinon to redo it. Next... Sandalphon: I've finally finished my work for the day. Now I can go apologize. Sandalphon: But...why am I so dizzy...? Sandalphon: Going directly into my general duties here after that long trek from the Halidom must have been more taxing on my body than I anticipated it would be. Sandalphon: It is unavoidable. I must prioritize resting. Once I'm done, I can...resume...work... Sandalphon: ...... Sandalphon: Nnngh... Is this... Regina's laboratory...? Why do I have a blanket? Regina: Looks like someone's awake. Sandalphon: Did you bring me here, Regina? Regina: Sure did. You would've gotten yourself even sicker sleeping out where you were. Sandalphon: I appreciate your consideration. Regina: From what I can tell, it looks like you finished your work without resting— and the moment you finally got a brief reprieve, you instantly passed out. Regina: You really have to ease up on this whole workaholic thing before you hurt yourself. Sandalphon: It seems we share a passion for work, because I could say the same to you. Regina: Touché. Hell, I worked myself so hard, I wound up making a terrible mistake I'm still trying to apologize for. Sandalphon: Actually, I need to apologize as well. Sandalphon: I realized there was a possibility that you may have forgotten to give those orders, but I did not check to be certain. Sandalphon: I should have covered for the mistake you made. I will do everything in my power to ensure it never happens again. Regina: Wait. You realized there was something wrong with my orders? Regina: You really are exceptional, you know that? I feel heartened knowing that I have you there to support me. Regina: I'm not perfect, after all, so it would help a lot if you'd keep that support going. What do you say, partner? Sandalphon: Partner...? Regina: Don't tell me you don't know what "partner" means. Sandalphon: I understand its meaning. Sandalphon: I just did not expect a word like that to apply to our relationship. Regina: Well then, maybe this is a chance to change your perception of our relationship. Regina: You and I look out for one another. Generally, folks who do that call themselves partners. Sandalphon: ! Cleo: We support and rely on each other, and that sense of fulfillment sets our relationship apart from the one I shared with King Aurelius. Sandalphon: (So this is what Cleo meant... I understand everything now.) Sandalphon: (This warmth in my heart is something I never felt when I was with Metatron.) Sandalphon: (Perhaps it is the fulfillment Cleo was talking about when—) Sandalphon: Yes, Ramiel? What is the matter? Sandalphon: ...Understood. I will let her know. Sandalphon: Regina, we just received a report that Lilith has appeared near Grams. Regina: Those damn Archdemons just don't know when to quit... Time to take her out! Regina: Things are about to get real busy, Sandalphon, so I'm counting on you! Sandalphon: Understood. I will take care of it. Sandalphon: As your partner, I will do everything in my power to see our duties fulfilled.
