“Hurting others in order to protect myself…is just too heavy of a burden for me…”
“Hmm… so it’s okay when you’re protecting someone, right?”
“Eh?”
“Now, this is just an example, okay? The life of someone dear to you has been put in dire straits. If you must die instead to save that person…would you be able to point the gun at your own head and pull the trigger?”
“Yeah. If that was the only option…I wouldn’t think twice about it.”

“Do you always…make that ‘I don’t give a damn about myself’ face?”
“…I don’t.”
“You do.”
“I said I don’t!”
“I’m tellin’ you that you do! You looked calm even when you were surrounded by those guys. We rescued you, yet you tell us ‘not to get involved’!?”
“‘Cos…it’s really none of your business, right? Whether I get kidnapped…or killed…so…”
“How many people have you hurt by acting that way…you suicidal idiot!!?”
“Suicidal? Stop it. Don’t go treating me like I have a death wish…”
“But you do! Don’t you!? When you sacrifice yourself like that…do you really believe you’ve saved someone!? You’re only trying to protect your own feelings!! You’re sacrificing yourself just to satisfy your own ego!! You don’t even know how much those left behind are hurt…yet you dare say ‘hurting others is too heavy a burden’!? You can afford to say something soft like that…’cos you’re pushing that ‘burden’ onto other people!! The people who care for you…the people who try to protect you…they’re the ones shouldering your burden…so they don’t lose you, because you don’t even try to protect yourself.”
“Stop. Enough…let me go—”
“I’m not finished yet!! Listen…you’re not going to be able to protect anybody like this. If you treat your own life so lightly…you don’t deserve to protect anybody else’s life!!”
“Shut up.”
“You’ve given up on yourself. You go around pretending you’re some tragic hero.”
“Shut up. Shut up. Shut up.”
“Are you going to keep living your life…hurting yourself and the people around you!!?”
“SHUT UP!!! You don’t know anything…! Yet you suddenly barge in…and say whatever you want…what do you know about me…!? Yeah, fine! I’m stupid! I’m lower than dirt!! I’m a powerless fool who tries to help people to satisfy my own ego!! So…what’s so bad about that!? I was denied. I wasn’t wanted. So the least I can do…is not inconvenience anybody…so the only one who gets hurt is me…!” I’ll accept…all my sufferings and sorrows. There’s nothing absolute in this world…so I’ll be fine…if I believe that’s the way things are. Even if…everyone abandons me in the future…I’ll be fine. I’m sure I won’t be hurt then—
“No one will be hurt, even if I die.”
“That’s just your ego.”
“I don’t believe…I deserve the same rights as everyone else…”

“Now listen up. Edgar died to protect his master. I’m not saying his death was meaningless. However…he said this before he went off to die— ‘I am not afraid of being hurt. I will gladly accept death if I can protect my master…!’ He prayed for the happiness of everyone who supported him…and tore their hearts to pieces at the same time. He should’ve struggled. He should have refused to die. Don’t make me laugh!! Not being scared of getting hurt doesn’t count as strength!! That kind of drivel…is babbled by people who don’t have the resolve to shoulder anything at all!!!”

“I don’t…want to inconvenience people…”

“Eh…yeah. I love it…”
“Do you? So what are your feelings on the holy knight’s valet?”
“You mean Edgar? Eh…well, I totally love him?!? ‘To put others before oneself.’ He’s a fine man who’s not afraid of getting hurt while protecting others! Gosh, I mean I completely understand why the readers would love him, he’s my favo—”
“Tch…!”
“Tch…!?”
“…Ohh, I see. Hate to tell you…but I…utterly despise that piece of shit known as Edgar…!! He talks so self righteously, it pisses me off.”
“Eh…”
“Self-sacrifice makes me wanna puke.”
“No way…!”
“Why the hell’s a guy like him so popular? I mean, it’s obnoxious that even in the story, the other characters love him so blindly!”
“Hey…how could you!? After I told you I liked him..!”
“This is how I feel, so I can’t help it. Most of all, I can’t stomach his final moments. He laid down his life to protect his master…and went and died alone while praying for the happiness of those dear to him…just what part of a guy like that’s so great-!!?”
“EH!? Edgar…dies…”
“? He did…right? Around the middle of volume sixteen, I think it was…”
“Uwaaaaaaah!! That is such a spoiler—!!”
“Huuh!? Not my problem!! Any real fan would have read it already! Hey don’t get all up in my face!!”
“Shut you’re trap! I got ten years o’catching up ta do, darnit! Ahhhh, all the motivation I had to read it is gone! Gonnne just like that—! Anyway the point is…protecting his master to the death is just wonderful. It’s just like Edgar!”
“Hah!? All that amounts to is satisfying his own ego, you idiot!!”
“This guy..”
“This jerk…”
“Really pisses me off…!!”
“Ahh, you two there. Would you mind keeping it down a little?”
“Leo!”
“Josephine is in trouble right now. Nnn…I never would have thought Jackie would be the culprit. What a surprise. Besides, I’d say Elliot was at fault just now.”

“You asked someone for his own opinion…but tried to force your opinions on him when you didn’t like what you heard.”
