"Well, I could say that I'm secretly the goddess Fuyin herself incarnated in a human body and that's why I'm so strong...."
"Or I could say that I just have really powerful Mahou, which the Imperial Seal can't block anyway."
"Dammit, Mitsui, this isn't the time!" "Ehe~"
"...thanks. I couldn't have come so far without you guys. We did this together."
"...you....you still haven't beaten me, Serena..."
"Give it up, sister. There are still two other goddesses in the room." "I said enough."
"...is it over...?"
"Eh? A fake Gnosis?"
"Hm? What do you mean a fake?"
"You....you'll pay for this!" "W-who the hell are you?!"
"As predicted. He was going to make his escape over the back."
"As always, Maya, you're reliable. Thanks, partner." "Hm."
"Everybody, this is my partner, Maya. She and I are part of the Corinth Detective Agency. We....well, we investigate whatever we get paid to. I do the talking, Maya's....well, a woman of action. We were here busting this guy for scams." "You're not even staff! You can't do this! Quit with the dumb roleplay schtick!"
"Right, like fleecing newbies of their hard-earned noda's perfectly acceptable and us busting you isn't. Anyway, we've been tracking this guy for a few weeks now, but our trail went cold until a newbie from Cichol had a friend come to us with the info. We were passing by and seeing if we could bust him here." "Hm." "With the level of custom work on these weapons, I'd say he wasn't working alone, Joker. We may be dealing with a ring of scammers."

"...." "Serena!" "I knew it. I knew it! Haha, at last....Serena shall-" "Did you think you could make me disappear so easily, like you pushed me out of our mother's notice for so long, Freya?" "I'm supposed....to be stronger...." "I found my strength. I won't let you take it away. Nor will you take it from anyone else. Deluge."(The waters around Serena are getting warm!)

"...how?" "You underestimated me, because you cast me out for so long, Freya. No more. I.....won't let you do that. Or hurt others ever again. I know what I'm worth now." "A professional? Quit wasting my time!" "Hesperite is an ore only found on Lugh. It's renowned for being super-hard even in its unrefined form, and the refined form is used to make Impulse Gears, like the one I use. Almost every Impulse Gear has some hesperite components."
"Due to the high melting temperatures and facilities needed to melt it down, only three Shards specialise in actually treating it. Lugh, Cethleann and Oghma. Though, of course, if you're desperate for Hesperite equipment, you can buy 'em off the right merchant in those Shards." "Eh?"
"Now, Rebel Impulse is the kind of game where stats aren't enough to determine things. It's a realistic game in some senses; for instance, you can target body parts for more damage and if you manually cook or forge something, you can customise it better than if you just use the ingame menu. Including physics. Now, an endgame weapon with endgame materials should have no problem chipping this hesperite; the endgame materials around here being orichalcum and adamant, if this is made of those, it won't even do anything. But if this is made of plain iron like I suspect....." "...it'll break like glass when I smash it into this hesperite rock." "Hey, listen! You gotta buy that first! No testing!" "Oh? Are you scared I might find something? Like this isn't actually endgame material? Only one way to find out." "It's fake! It's fake! I give! Enough!""It's fake, huh?" "Yes. It's fake. It's made of iron and has very low stats. Enough." "...well, it would've shattered against that rock, if it was actually hesperite. Pretty sure it would've probably split that rock in half." "Huh?!" "Feel free to check that rock. It's just a random stone I use to bluff people that I painted red." "OnyxJoker, of the Corinth Detective Agency. I believe I just found ourselves the ringleader of that weapon trading scam that's been targeting new players, ladies and gents." "A detective?! What kind of stupid roleplayer are you?!"
"Alright. Lead the way, good sir." "Excellent! I promise, you won't be disappointed." "Take your pick, good sir. They're all good weapons." "Hm. Yes...everything seems in place. Nicely-weighted....feels light, the stats don't lie..." "You like it? I can give it to you. A pair, even. 900 noda for both. Way cheaper than you'd get something with those stats for. If you don't like 'em, you can sell 'em on for more. Though I guarantee you won't bother." "Hm. Alexis, would you mind....holding this for me? When you hold it, hold it steady." "Uh. What is that?" "Hesperite. I'll explain in a second. It's a really nice-looking knife, you know?" "What does that have to do with anything? Just buy 'em or don't!" "Trust me. I'm a professional."
"You wish me to stop grinning upon the eve of my victory? Then MAKE ME, wretch!"(Shoes' hooves thunder!)While both of them inflict about equal harm, Shoes is barely standing after, while Freya shrugs off the attack. Mostly.

"Thank you..." "Weak."
"You guys, enough! Focus on the mission! You want to debate the consequences of what happens after we're done, fine, but let's do it after! Sakurajima and Koga are still here depending on us, and Miyazono and Kaneko aren't turning back if we keep talking like this!"
"Short-sightedness? Is that what you call acting when you know something's wrong? You don't get it, do you? You can plan all you like, but the minute it goes wrong, you're screwed. You can't predict everything; for every person you've helped in secret, Saya and I have caught the slack of someone else you missed. For every person you manipulate to safety, there's one I have to fight for. Only you have the luxury of people liking you for it; but that's fine with me, so long as I can do right by others. People like you need people like me, because we're the ones who can think on our feet when the sky falls. And people like us need people like you, because you're the ones who see ahead, who think long term. If you want to count how many people you've protected, that's fine. But I won't. I don't need to. If I can help even one, then I can be happy that one person's life is better because of me. But don't look down on me or Honda, and don't treat us like we don't want the same thing!"
"You can't always predict the future and you can't foresee everything, but if you can help someone, even bit by bit, and build up something better...that's why the Helper's Club exists. To make things better, one step at a time. Akkun, Sawatari, you're both right, but...."
"The Imperial Seal...well, I'm not as familiar."
"Um...I could speak up here, I guess. Sorry. Um..." "...the Imperial Seal, according to legend, was granted to the Yamauchi clan by the gods. The ancestors of the Yamauchi were the humans who fought alongside the Gods of the Land against the God of Curses, and as a reward, the Gods of the Land rewarded the head of the clan with the Imperial Seal, which was said to grant them power over other Gnosis wielders. It's not just the ability to block Gnosis abilities, but also additional power on top of that of a Gnosis."
"Sorry. Uh....Folkloric Studies was....one of my favorite subjects back at the Pharmacy."
"You three, focus! Justice, vigilantism.....that doesn't matter right now! There are people in here who need to be protected!" "Even if they ARE complete assholes! Even if they're the kind of bastard who gets their kicks by picking on the weak! Even if they go after the people I care for most!" "If we can rescue them, we rescue them! If the only way we can save them is by beating that Akuma out of them, fine! But I'm not letting anyone else go through what Saya did!"
"I don't need rescuing, Kasuga! I've got everything I want now; all the power I could ever ask for to make soft assholes like you kowtow to me, like they deserve to! If you hadn't ruined everything by protecting Aiuchi....Sasanuma would never have gone soft, I'd have everything I wanted! You should've left well enough alone! Who was going to make a fuss over some country mouse getting a harmless prank, anyway, huh? Don't give me that crap, you stupid wannabe hero! All you wanted is the fame and you didn't even get that, you stupid-" "If nobody fights for those without voices, then it's like not giving them a voice at all. I didn't want the fame, and I don't need it now! You'll get yours, Kaneko, but for now, I'll settle for beating that Akuma out of you!"
