More Important Than Anything
The Other Dimension – Bizzare Staircase
Sebek: Humans! What are you dragging behind for. Let's hurry forward!
Trey: Don't be so hasty. Deuce is quite exhausted after getting possessed by the ghost and battling.
Rook: Qui. A bad condition in an unknown territory might be fatal. Let us take a break.
Deuce: Senpai… I'm really sorry for troubling you.
Sebek: A break!? How laidback. Do you not understand the dangerous situation we are in!?
Deuce: Eh?
Sebek: We are in a race against time. I am not so free as to wait for a human's recovery!
Sebek: Stand up this instant! If you plan on slowing us down I'll leave you behind!
Deuce: Wha-… you don't have to be so mean!
Trey: There there. Calm down you two. Starting a quarrel here can't benefit us.
Rook: A rest is important precisely in times of hurry, Monsieur Crocodile.
Sebek: …, cowards! Then you should stay right there and rest to your heart's content!!
Sebek: I WILL GO FORWARD BY MYSELF!!!!!
Deuce: Hey, wait a second Sebek!
Deuce: What are you losing your temper for? You've been acting strangely for a while now.
Sebek: I AM NOT LOSING MY TEMPER!!!!!
Trey: For him to scream so loudly… he's really acting a bit weird.
Deuce: No, his voice being loud is the usual… but usually he's more of a calm kinda person.
Deuce: Even in class, I've never seen the teachers scolding him because he was being impertinent…
Deuce: Hey, Sebek. I'm sure you understand that running forward alone in this situation can't be a good thing.
Deuce: For now just calm down.
Sebek: AS IF I CAN STAY CALM!!!!
Sebek: ……the Young Lord………
Sebek: …The Young Lord and Lilia-sama have disappeared!
Deuce: !
Sebek: The two of them are some of the strongest mages in the world!! And yet…
Sebek: I don't know if they've been harmed.
Sebek: For me, they are not simply my upperclassmen of the same Dorm. They are beings more important than anything.
Sebek: If push comes to shove, I am even prepared to offer myself. I train every day for this purpose.
Sebek: But I… couldn’t even notice they went missing. What negligence. What uselessness…!
Deuce: Sebek…
Sebek: On top of that, I got separated from Silver who came to the rescue mission with me and his whereabouts are unknown.
Sebek: That guy's body is uselessly burly at least. I do think he is fine… but when necessity arises, I must save him!
Deuce: I see. I guess you are worried about Silver-senpai too.
Sebek: Wha-! I'm not really worried about Silver!
Deuce: You lost all your reliable upperclassmen, makes sense you would feel lonely.
Sebek: NO!!! I'M TELLING YOU YOU'RE WRONG!! I AM NOT LONELY AT ALL!!!!
Deuce: I- I got it! Just don't scream in my ears like that.
Sebek: …hmph! Unlike you easygoing fellows, I have an important duty as a guard!
Sebek: The Young Lord and Lilia-sama must be waiting for my rescue! That is why I'll go ahead!
Trey: Sebek… you've got stamina, and you might have received training so you can battle on your own. But…
Trey: But the possibility you would encounter a strong enemy you don't stand a chance against on your own isn't zero, right?
Sebek: That's…
Trey: No matter the situation, it's better to have more soldiers protecting the king. Right? Deuce.
Deuce: …! Yes! When it comes to attacking, the more people on your team the better!
Deuce: Sebek. Take it from me who used to rush forward on my own…
Deuce: "Even against a strong enemy you can't beat on your own, if you cooperate you'll get a chance at winning"!
Sebek: ……!
Rook: No road is long with good company… Us traveling together is also a work of fate.
Rook: Think of us as your upperclassmen from Diasomnia Dorm and rely on us. Sebek-kun!
Trey: Well, compared to Malleus we might not be so reliable… but we'll support you as much as we can.
Deuce: I'm also gonna make up for exposing myself in such an unsightly way. Don't get sad if I steal your spotlight, Sebek!
Sebek: You guys…
Sebek: …Hmph. Don’t worry, I'm fine on my own. I'm fine but…
Sebek: If you're going this far, I will accompany you. You lots must be hopeless on your own after all.
Deuce: …Huh?
Sebek: As a guard of the Young Lord, protecting two or three humans is a walk in the park!
Sebek: I will guide the Young Lord, Lilia-sama, and on the occasion also Silver and you guys safely back to the school!
Sebek: Perfect, now that we settled it, let's take a break. We shall recharge our energies, and prepare for battle!
Sebek: Confirm that you don't have any injuries one more time. Once you are in perfect condition, we will depart from here.
Sebek: Did you hear me! Humans!!
Deuce: T-this guy…!
Trey: Haha! I see. So that's the "usual" Sebek.
Deuce: God's sake. The moment he returned to normal he started talking rudely to his upperclassmen!
Rook: T'en fais pas! Monsieur Spade. It's a good thing he's cheerful again.
Sebek: Young Lord, Lilia-sama, please wait for me!! This Sebek! Is on his way to you!!!
