Part 411: Frederick A

Nowi, are you free? I was hoping we might have another sparring session.

But we just had a fight yesterday! AND the day before that!

Yes, but I am so close to anticipating when you unleash a breath attack.

Oh, okay. If you want to play THAT much...

Why are you always so obsessed about getting better at fighting?

I must be strong so I can protect Chrom and our allies. This war demands no less. Also, the more I learn, the more I can pass on to the other Shepherds. This will reduce battlefield casualties and increase the odds of eventual victory.

And it'll make you the biggest hero ever!

Unlikely. And in any case, I do not do this for praise or glory. My only aim is to ensure that as many of my comrades as possible survive this war.

I love being praised more than ANYTHING! Don't you care about the glory even just a little bit?

I am but human, milady-any praise that comes my way is highly appreciated. But approbation and glory cannot by themselves be your goal.

Gosh, you're just like a real knight! But SOMEONE has to tell you how great you are-and it might as well be me! So, er... Well done, Frederick! Good job! You're the best knight ever!

Heh. Why, thank you, Nowi. You remind me of my mother.

Well, don't forget, I AM like several centuries older than you!

Yes, of course. I often forget that you are a wise, mature woman.

Tee hee hee! NOW you're praising ME! And you do it ever so well!

I only speak the truth.

In fact, you're so good at it, I think we should spend more time sparring.

It would be my pleasure!
