「啪嗒……」
血滴入水中，掀起金色的漣漪。
「劍旗爵，你可曾想過，此戰之後，我們該去往何方？」
執劍的少女沉默許久，搖了搖頭。
「等到反叛的浪花散盡，我們就去向星海，那裏一定有你想要的清澈大海。」
她露出一抹微笑，揮杖向天。
「眾神讓我們相互廝殺，讓翁法羅斯自絕於銀河，我便要劍指眾神。無論是天下的眾神，還是天外的眾神。」
「啪嗒……」
血滴入水中，掀起金色的漣漪。
「劍旗爵，若有一天，我命令你向我揮劍，你會怎麼辦？」
少女繼續沉默以對，以為那不過又是一個殘忍的玩笑。
「請一定用最鋒利的劍刃。這樣，才對得起那些因我而犧牲的將士。」
她將代表自己的棋子擲出棋局——
「瞧，有舍才有得，棋路寬闊多了。」
「啪嗒……」
血滴入水中，掀起金色的漣漪。
「劍旗爵，你覺得誰能在我們身後，接過逐火的重任？」
她們不約而同看向了遠處的「金織」。
「這尾小金鱒，終會變成池中的大魚兒。」
「啪嗒……」
血滴入水中，掀起金色的漣漪。
「許多人猜測我向塔蘭頓交易了什麼，百戰百勝的力量，還是律法的權能…呵，那根本無需神明的幫助……」
故人身影消散，她感到寒冷逼近，天空漆黑一片，仿佛沒有星光的洞穴。
很久以前，她也曾在徹骨的寒冷中，親眼見到流着黃金血的孩子被帶走。
「可在那吃人的世道，讓自己擁有黃金的血…才有推翻這一切的機會，哪怕…我將以此模樣度過一生……」
藍發的女孩閉上雙眼。
「但真正的願望自始至終…只有一個……」
從幾乎凍斃荒野的乞兒，到傀儡一般的王女，到與神相爭的領袖，她親手將自己擢升為棋手，又親手將自己當作棄子抹去——
「我要，征服世間不公的命運！」

"Drip."
A drop of blood falls into water, sending golden ripples across the surface.
"Dux Gladiorum, have you thought about where our paths might lead after this battle ends?"
The sword-wielding girl stands in thoughtful silence before shaking her head.
"After the rebellion settles, we'll head for the stars. You'll find your crystal-clear ocean out there, I promise."
With a faint smile, she lifts her scepter skyward.
"The gods have pitted us against each other, letting Amphoreus end its own life in the cosmos. So I'll turn my blade on them, on every god, whether in our world or beyond."
"Drip."
A drop of blood falls into water, sending golden ripples across the surface.
"Dux Gladiorum, what if someday I command you to turn your blade against me?"
The girl remains silent, assuming it's just another of her cruel jokes.
"I'd want your sharpest edge. Anything less would dishonor those who sacrificed themselves for my cause."
She tosses the chess piece that represented herself off the board.
"See? To lose is to gain. New paths have emerged."
"Drip."
A drop of blood falls into water, sending golden ripples across the surface.
"Dux Gladiorum, who do you think can take up the heavy burden of the Flame-Chase journey once we're gone?"
In perfect unison, their gaze falls upon the distant "Goldweaver."
"That little golden trout will one day become the most magnificent fish in this pond."
"Drip."
A drop of blood falls into water, sending golden ripples across the surface.
"Many speculate about what I traded with Talanton. Was it the power of endless victory, or the authority of law... Heh. I've never needed any divine help for those..."
The silhouette of her past companion faded away. She felt the cold creeping in, the sky pitch black like a starless cave.
Long ago, she had also witnessed, in bone-chilling cold, a child with golden blood being taken away.
"But in this world that devours people, having golden blood... is the only chance to overthrow everything. Even if... I must live like this for the rest of my life..."
The blue-haired girl closes her eyes.
"But I've only wished for one thing... since the beginning..."
From a beggar child nearly frozen to death in the wilds, to a princess who was no better than a puppet, then to a commander who challenged gods... She personally elevated herself from pawn to player, only to sacrifice herself when the endgame demanded it...
"I wish to conquer the tyrannical fate of this world!"
