[Jae-ha shakes his head and - ]

I should explain... I felt what you felt in that moment and - I suppose I can understand. That moment when your body won't do what you want it to... I came from a battlefield not long before I arrived here at this castle, and I felt every last bit of my energy expended right in the middle of a fight. It was frustrating, and I couldn't stand it.

[But he can't quite shake his smile as he meets Souji's eyes.]

You really didn't want to listen to anyone, did you? But - even if it's possibly not right, I think that's amazing. You knew what you wanted to do, what you had to do... and I'm torn -

Because I understand the people who are worried about you. I get worried about you. Of course they want you out of harm's way when the pain of losing you would be so great....

[ . . . ]

But it's frustrating, isn't it? That's no way to live - in obedience, waiting for the end to come patiently.

So that moving forward, fighting until your last breath to live the life that you want to instead of the one that you're told to... I think that's beautiful.

You're really something.
