Sciences)You naturally get used to anything in time, after all~Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed2"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)The same goes for drinking coffee.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed3"Roland(Servant)Mmh… Coffee, huh…Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland4"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)This one should fit your taste better than the last one, I think?Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed4"Roland(Servant)Hmm… Alright, I’ll trust you with this!Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland5"Roland(Servant)Oh~ This one’s sweet, and like, really tasty overall!Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland6"Roland(Servant)How should I put it… Yeah, I’ve never had such a classy and dainty coffee before!Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland7"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)Isn’t it~? Gebura also started out with this macchiato, you see.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed5"Roland(Servant)So this is what a delicious coffee tastes like.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland8"Roland(Servant)I’m over thirty years old, and I’m still learning new things…Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland9"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I heard they mostly serve coffee with a strong taste of sweetness in the Backstreets to cover up the low quality ingredients.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed6"Roland(Servant)And some are just plain bitter.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland10"Roland(Servant)I used to drink it when I needed to stay awake or simply kill some time.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland11"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I did too~Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed7"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)In Lobotomy Corp, I always started each day with some coffee.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed8"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)A warm cup was the only thing that could heat up my lethargic body, listless as lukewarm coffee.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed9"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I kept forcing myself to work, holding zero expectations.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed10"Roland(Servant)Must’ve been pretty tiring.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland12"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)It sure was~ Employees were slaughtered by Abnormalities all the time, and my plans to keep them alive never came to fruition.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed11"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)The coffee slowly cooled down along with my passion.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed12-01"Roland(Servant)How about now, did it warm over?Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland13"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I guess you can say that. This time, it’s steaming hot again like you said, Roland~Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed13"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I can try a lot of things with everything that’s been given to me.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed14"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)Most of all, I can drink various blends of coffee now.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed15"Roland(Servant)Though, you still have to follow someone else’s orders?Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland14"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I made the decision to follow her this time around.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed16"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)And I can actually minimize the damage my fellow librarians have to suffer if I work hard at it.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed17"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)So all in all, I’m feeling motivated, you see?Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed18"Roland(Servant)You’ve got quite the flexible mindset, huh.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland15"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)Everything’s better than before.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed19"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)Maybe this is mercy of some kind.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed20"Roland(Servant)From who? Our Miss Library Director?Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland16"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)It’s hard for me to believe, of course, but I sometimes think she might have done this for us.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed21"Roland(Servant)Eh, I’m not so sure.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland17"Roland(Servant)Angela’s goals and where her anger comes from seem pretty clear to me at this point.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland18"Roland(Servant)I don’t think there’s any mercy in the path she’s trying to take.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland19"Roland(Servant)Mmh, this macchiato sure is tasty. It’s almost addicting.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland20"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)I’ll introduce you to other types of coffee from time to time~Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed22"Chesed(Patron Librarian - Soc. Sciences)Let’s get to know each other little by little.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_chesed23"Roland(Servant)Fine by me. I’ll look forward to it.Audio: "ch8_Chesed_ep2_roland21"
