Yesod — Episode 4Location: The Library - Floor of Technological SciencesRoland(Servant)Heyo~ Got your books.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland1"Roland(Servant)I’ll just leave them here and go before Mister Viper bites my ass~Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland2"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)Who told you that?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod1"Roland(Servant)Told me what? What are we gonna argue about this time?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland3"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)You referred to me as a “Viper” just a moment ago.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod2"Roland(Servant)Well, I called you that because you like to spit venom at others with that sharp look.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland4"Roland(Servant)Y’know, there was one guy I used to know who was kinda like you…Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland5"Roland(Servant)He was nicknamed “The Viper”.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland6"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)That’s funny. I was also nicknamed as such a long time ago.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod3"Roland(Servant)See, people all think in similar ways.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland7"Roland(Servant)You’re a bit milder than that guy, though.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland8"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)Is that supposed to be a compliment, or an insult?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod4-01"Roland(Servant)More of a compliment. In any case, you’re… upright at heart.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland9"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)…There was a time when I would pressure myself and others with a paranoidal obsession to order.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod5-02"Roland(Servant)Back in Lobotomy Corp?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland10"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)Correct. Back then, even a small mistake could lead to substantial casualties.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod6"Roland(Servant)Doesn’t hurt to be strict when caution is needed.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland11"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I wanted to remain level-headed at all times. I tried to conceal all my emotions, even when I felt anger or sadness.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod7"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)So I treated others in a frigid manner under the pretext of rules and discipline.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod8-01"Roland(Servant)Is that why you’re being so cold to me as well?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland12"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)No. It is the opposite, in fact.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod9-02"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I am upset at your compliance with Angela precisely because I cannot stand to tolerate what we’re doing with a cool head.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod10-01"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)In my first life as a person named Gabriel, I wanted to make the world a better place.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod11-03"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I wished technological advancement would bring comfort to people.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod12"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)But look at what we’ve gotten into…Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod13"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)In Lobotomy Corporation, we turned people into Abnormalities, and sacrificed even more people to the Abnormalities, all to generate energy as part of our Singularity.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod14-01"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)And what we are doing now isn’t any less ruthless.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod15-02"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)For the sake of retrieving the Light… We are killing people yet again and turning them into books.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod16-02"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)Inflicting pain on others in favor of information.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod17-01"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)It’s as if comfort can only be achieved… through the agony of others in this City.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod18"Roland(Servant)Like I said, Yesod, you’re upright at heart.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland13"Roland(Servant)Though I don’t really get why anyone would bother to care so much for others.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland14"Roland(Servant)I think the opposite, actually.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland15"Roland(Servant)Someone else must’ve benefitted from all the trouble I went through, so it’s only fair that I get to make use of the conveniences others suffered for.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland16"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)It’s very much like you to think so.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod19-02"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)Does that kind of mindset truly ease your mind?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod20-01"Roland(Servant)Nothing I can do about it, anyway. That’s that, and this is this.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland17"Roland(Servant)Still, I don’t wanna say that your way of thinking is outright wrong or anything.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland18"Roland(Servant)You’re right. Way too right. That doesn’t vibe too well with me or the City.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland19"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)You must be thinking I am pathetic like others do.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod21"Roland(Servant)Y’know, this difference between our mindsets might be what’ll let you do things I couldn’t dream of doing.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland20"Roland(Servant)To shake up the whole system, you need perseverance more than anything.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland21"Roland(Servant)Who knows, you might actually create technologies that don’t need sacrificing others to run someday, right?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland22"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I’ve already endured for so long, and you’re telling me to stay silent yet again…Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod22-02"Roland(Servant)Just this once, man… Just one more time.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland23"Roland(Servant)Things could turn out differently this time around.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland24"Roland(Servant)And besides, some things did improve over your time in Lobotomy Corp, right?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland25"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)…That is true.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod23"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I can at least… be with my former employees, who have always been loyal to me.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod24"Roland(Servant)Yeah~ What did I tell ya, there is one improvement at least!Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland26"Roland(Servant)Change up stuff one at a time like that, and you could make a huge difference eventually.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland27"Roland(Servant)Don’t force me to do the same, though, since I’m totally not up for that!Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland28"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)You’re quite the foolhardy individual, aren’t you.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod25-02"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)…But you do have a point, Roland. Some things have gotten better as you said.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod26"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I will try and persevere as long as there are improvements to be made.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod27"Roland(Servant)Can I leave you with my share of persevering, too?Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland29"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I suppose I’ll have to consider that.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod28-01"Roland(Servant)See~ You’re just too nice. Angela would’ve instantly shut me down with a “Bullshit.”Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland30"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)It turns out that conversing with you wasn’t all too unpleasant, after all.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod29-01"Roland(Servant)Yep. I have my charm, you see.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland31"Roland(Servant)And let’s drop the courtesy while we’re at it.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland32"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)I am more comfortable speaking this way.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod30-01"Roland(Servant)Eh, figured. Cheers then.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_roland33"Yesod(Patron Librarian - Tech. Sciences)…It was nice talking with you.Audio: "ch8_Yesod_ep4_yesod31"
