PP90(0);Vector(0)Vector||:Since it’s an order, you don’t need to ask if it’s okay or not. PP90(0)PP90;Vector(0)||:Alright, alright, I’ll take that as a yes.+Next, we have that human girl. What’s her story? PP90(0);Vector(0)Vector||:I met her at the base. She knows a lot about this zombie horde incident, but she’s hiding something.+However, I tested her several times along the way, so she shouldn’t be an enemy. PP90(0)PP90;Vector(0)||:Mhm! I’m relieved if you say so, Vivi. PP90(0);Vector(0)||: ()||<黑屏1>:[Kiana walks over.] PP90(0)Kiana;Vector(0)||<黑屏2>:Friend of yours, Vector? PP90(0)PP90;Vector(0)||:Greetings, human girl!

PP90(0)Kiana;Vector(0)||:Ah… it’s nothing.+I just felt that you looked a little bit like… one of my friends. PP90(0)PP90;Vector(0)||:Hehe, that’s a point of pride for me as a doll. PP90(0)Kiana;Vector(0)||:However, your personalities are complete opposites…+Ah, but! You’re both very cute and I like you both very much!+I’m Kiana, very happy to meet you. I ended up being drawn into this due to some unexpected circumstances, so I’ll be in your care. PP90(0)PP90;Vector(0)||:Hello, Kiana-san. Don’t worry, we’re Griffin PMC, let us take care of your safety!

I think I finally understand you now, thanks to all this trouble.+Ah… still, now that everything’s over, all we need to do is follow the Commander’s orders, so there’s nothing to worry about any more, right? PP90(0)Kiana;Vector(0)||:Oi oi! Saying things like that is very dang- PP90(0);Vector(0)||: ()||AlarmBGM_Empty:[Whum! Whum!] PP90(0)PP90;Vector(0)||: Huh… is it a public broadcast?

Sorry about that, ahem…+Then, were you happy with that attack of the Slain just now?+However, that attack just now was less than 10% of the forces we stocked up. PP90()PP90||:Oi! Seriously!?+All those Slain were from S.F.? How many more are there going to be!? Vector()Vector||:So S.F.’s behind all this again? It’s kind of boring... BOSS-6(0)Destroyer||:I’ve waited too long for this opportunity, you Griffin villains!+You’ve been bullying me all this time, but right now, I will pay! It! All! back! Vector()Vector||:Just for that? Then she should go settle the score with the Commander, right... BOSS-6(0)Destroyer||:Still… my strength this time came from an accident, and the battle orders are from me, and not Mastermind-sama.+Therefore, I don’t plan to commit too many of my own units, but surely this many Slain should be enough to swamp you, right?

BOSS-6(0);PP90(0)Kiana||:It seems like the topic has subtly shifted... BOSS-6(0)Destroyer;PP90(0)||:You pathetic Griffin dolls really do go to great lengths to suck up to your Commander. Puppets!

BOSS-6(0)Destroyer;PP90(0)||:Hehe… in other words, you can’t do anything without your Commander, can you?+Nothing wrong with that! If not for your Commander, we’d have gotten you all in your base, right?+Therefore, it’s not like I haven’t prepared for that either - do it! BOSS-6(0);PP90(0)||: ()||:[...Doot.

You can’t take action without that Commander? PP90(0)PP90||:None of the dolls here has command modules of any grade…+Without the Commander’s orders… we won’t be able to come up with an effective battle plan, and we can’t mobilize so many dolls at once... 琪亚娜()Kiana||:So dolls… Aren’t exactly the same as us...

You don’t even dare to frankly accept the kindness of others!+You don’t understand anyone, so how dare you conclude that I’m going to kill you all!?

PP90(0);Vector(0)Vector||:…So are you a high school girl or a high school teacher?+I only have an hour left to live, so why don’t you think about how to survive instead of lecturing me? 琪亚娜()Kiana||:Quit jumping to conclusions and assuming I’m like that!+I’m not going to run!
