Loch
Dean!

Dean
Yo. I see you're still in one piece too.

Loch
Yes, thanks to the princess's protection.

Dean
......

Dean
So you felt it too, huh?

Loch
Yes! The princess is still alive!

Loch
Lafdranya told me so.

Dean
Yeah...

Dean
It looks like that tough piece of armor is telling us to go out there and save her.

Loch
I will save the princess, you'll see!

Loch
No matter what the cost!

Dean
Ha ha. That's the Loch I know.

Dean
But that's impossible. You can't rescue the princess.

Loch
What?!

Dean
Because it's not YOU who's gonna rescue the princess, but US, together.

Dean
I'm sure gramps would say the same thing, wherever he is.

Loch
Grr...

Loch
I-I do not care! I will be the one to rescue her!

Loch
That is my responsibility!

Dean
......

Dean
You know, I've been wondering about this for a while, but...

Dean
Loch, when are you gonna fess up to her?

Loch
"Fess up to her"?

Dean
You know what I mean, don't you?

Dean
What I'm saying is, when are you gonna tell the princess that you're in love with her?

Loch
In...love...?!

Loch
Wh-What are you talking about?!

Loch
There is absolutely no way I would do that!

Dean
Huh? Aren't you in love with her though?

Loch
She is the most precious person to me in the entire world!!

Loch
But I would never dare to harbor such selfish feelings towards her!! It's inconceivable!!

Dean
...... Well, if you say so.

Dean
I mean, if you're okay with living like that, then I guess it doesn't matter.

Loch
And not only that, but she is the first princess of the Kingdom of Palmyna!

Loch
And I've been meaning to tell you this for a long time, but you have been overly familiar with her since the beginning!

Dean
You've been meaning to tell me, you say? What are you talking about?! You're ALWAYS telling me that.

Dean
...whatever.

Dean
That princess...Edea, is definitely the princess of Palmyna.

Dean
But personally...

Dean
...I don't think that's the most important thing about her.

Dean
Edea is our friend.

Dean
Isn't that what really matters?

Dean
The reason why you and I are risking our necks to go save her is not because she is a princess.

Dean
It's because she's our friend.

Dean
Or are you trying to tell me that if she weren't a princess, you wouldn't go save her?

Dean
There's no way, right?

Loch
Well...

Loch
Yes, you are right...

Dean
So that means I can keep talking to her the same way I've been doing this whole time, right?!

Loch
Those are two different things!!

Loch
I swear, you are utterly hopeless...

*BOOOOM*

Dean
Wha?!

Dean
What was that explosion?!

Dean
I saw something that looked like fire too!

Loch
It's coming from Arlind Seminary.

Loch
Could it be...?

Dean
Let's go.

Dean
It might be gramps!
