"I envy you so much, Mr. Scheidt, for pursuing your dreams."

"Why is that?"

"It is true that I wanted to test myself. But it is not a dream. I was strong. I had a natural reputation, I had money, and I sent money home to my parents, who were weirded out by me, just to show them how much I cared. I drank the wine of victory, I was recognized as a top adventurer, I had fame and accolades, and I thought there was nothing I couldn't have. But I did not value them."

"Suddenly I realized. I did not want to be an adventurer. I didn't want to hunt for food, but I didn't want to fight a battle I didn't have to fight. I had no reason to kill anyone with dirty hands. I was just living momentarily. I was sick of that kind of life - no, let's be honest, I was tired of it."

"I was only successful because I was strong. That's all. I'm just a boring woman who indulged in fleeting pleasures."

　Louise spits out the words as if in self-mockery.

"Above all, I have a very good reason why I should not respond to your feelings.

　Louise's way of saying not "I can't" but "I mustn't" caught my attention.

　Sam asked her why, knowing that she was being rude.

"Why?"

　Louise looked Sam straight in the eye and let out an emotionless voice.
