The Shinobi stares intently into the eyes behind the glasses – for such a young-looking face, they seem unnaturally old.
- I see you're not one to back down, Asmidul. Or is it the fear of death that drives you to such desperate measures? Can you even fight? He clearly isn't weak – he puts his hands away from the katana and places it on the table. - If, as you say, you need my help, I will provide it. On the condition that you reason with Linshi – without taking his eyes off the guy, he nods vaguely in that direction. - I have no intention of listening to insults directed at me; this will end one way or another sooner or later, and none of those outcomes appeal to me. I won't demand an apology from her, I'll even forget my grievances, and I'd like to start with a clean slate. As for our patient... whether it's a curse or not, it doesn't matter to me. He killed not only me but also my friends, which is why I wanted to find out from her what she knows, but apparently, they don't deserve justice. Therefore, I have a special surprise in store exclusively for him. I don't know for sure, but most likely... one of the friends is already dead, and I haven't seen the other for a long time, so I need backup here.
—Agreed. —He turns his head and throws a pleading look at Linshi.
Although, for some reason, the universe sometimes called him the leader, the true co-founder of this suicide squad, without whom they would never have found out anything, it was the foreigner herself.

—Thank you. By the way, I apologize for immediately switching to an informal manner of communication. It was not due to rudeness, but to fatigue from all this... stuff. —Turning back, he nods to the Shinobi. —I'm a bookworm and have never faced a combat situation before. But I can defend myself. If my body takes at least one of his actions in battle, then so be it. And... I'm very sorry for your friends. Because of this scoundrel, one person close to me died, and another disappeared. I can't leave it like that.

-- Sounds like nonsense. In my opinion, it's not a curse, but rather a blessing. I don't know about you, but I just felt a surge of energy, and then this whole thing happened, whether it was a dream or reality. And besides, if I believe you, there's a Neferian Knight, and we're at war with Haran, which doesn't make sense, right?
"Weaklings. They don't see your strength. They're AFRAID."
"Hold on, hold on, you're not the first, you're not the last, and besides... there's a nuance here, I don't understand what it is."
-- Listen, I believe you. Let's assume. What did this knight ask you, huh? So that I would be convinced that you really saw him, and didn't just read about it in books. Nerd.
Although the hatred for Ginza had somewhat subsided, he still had a "special" attitude towards the four-eyed.
—This "upgrade" is just a consequence of a foreign soul trapped in your body. I wouldn't even consider this power to be "ours" or in any way deserved. As for the knight's affiliation, we believe he is not here because of the current war. His story dates back to the era of Empress Naria and the hunt for the Apostles of Akonia.
The last comment was missed by the guy, who was used to being teased by his peers.
—Are red spots not enough evidence for you? Unfortunately, there is no information about him in the books. He spoke to you, right? Interesting. The circumstances of our deaths are different, but I haven't heard of a knight having a voice before. Instead, he spoke to me; he named his name, and he seemed even slightly surprised, after which he crushed me with his hands like a combine harvester.
