R: This Master "C" guy...
R: I wonder how he treats his normal disciples?
R: As far as how he treats those who betray him, though...
R: I think we both already know how that goes.

04)
R: What the hell? Suddenly, I feel cold...
R: Ah...but it has been a long time since I've the true strength of Master "C."
R: Aside from rarely taking others under his wing...
R: There's something else that distinguishes "C" from the other "Masters."
R: And that is...
R: his fanatical obsession with duty and purpose.

SFX: GOO!!!

14)
M: Why...
M: Why aren't you all moving?!!?
K: are you out of your mind, grandma?!
K: Why would we leave you alone like this?!
K: On top of that, your plan is retarded!
C: Ku ku ku...
C: What a strong family you all are.
C: Maybe you're all the reason he acted so rashly back there.
C: Maybe that's why...
C: He went so far as to bite the hand of his master.

15)
C: Do you "remember" him?
C: This man...
C: ...fu.
C: Maybe he doesn't wish you all to see...

M: You hopeless fool.
M: Nicholas...
M: You haven't changed at all, have you -- always trying to do it all by yourself...
M: Honestly...
M: I guess you never listened to me after all.

19)
M: You have such high goals, but you don't like to compromise with people -- so you just end up hurting yourself in the end.
M: All this time, fighting by yourself...hasn't it worn you out yet?
M: The pain must be unbearable...
M: It's been so many years since you've come home...
M: And now, just when we needed you the most...
M: You ended up coming back to us in the end, didn't you?
