[ST:playername ]? What are you doing here?![ST:wait ] |
| 2 |
|
tev000494_MSG0002 |
Damn it all! I can't believe you've discovered my secret[ST:n ]training regimen![ST:wait ] |
| 3 |
|
tev000494_MSG0003 |
I worked so hard to conceal it from my rivals...[ST:wait ] |
| 4 |
|
tev000494_MSG0004 |
But I suppose there's nothing to be done about it now.[ST:n ]So go ahead! Make it your own! Steal all of my ideas![ST:n ]I will find a new and better way to stay ahead of you.[ST:wait ] |
| 5 |
|
tev000494_MSG0005 |
Er, but while we're on the subject, what do you[ST:n ]consider to be the secret to success?[ST:wait ] |
| 6 |
|
tev000494_JNK0010 |
Luck |
| 7 |
|
tev000494_SEL0011 |
Say that luck is the key factor. |
| 8 |
|
tev000494_JNK0020 |
Ability |
| 9 |
|
tev000494_SEL0021 |
Say that one's ability is the key factor. |
| 10 |
|
tev000494_JNK0030 |
Spirit |
| 11 |
|
tev000494_SEL0031 |
Say that an indomitable spirit is the key factor. |
| 12 |
|
tev000494_MSG0006 |
Luck, you say? I see.[ST:wait ] |
| 13 |
|
tev000494_MSG0007 |
Well, I cannot deny the value of such a thing.[ST:wait ] |
| 14 |
|
tev000494_MSG0008 |
Certainly, some of those in high places achieved their[ST:n ]positions through the capricious whims of Lady Fortune,[ST:n ]despite a clear lack of ability.[ST:wait ] |
| 15 |
|
tev000494_MSG0009 |
Er, I am not speaking of you, of course.[ST:wait ] |
| 16 |
|
tev000494_MSG0010 |
But I fear I must disagree, for I do not consider luck to[ST:n ]be the key factor in success.[ST:wait ] |
| 17 |
|
tev000494_MSG0011 |
It is ability, above all else, that determines success.[ST:n ]One must always prioritize increasing their abilities,[ST:n ]even if the effort is great and the result small.[ST:wait ] |
| 18 |
|
tev000494_MSG0012 |
For once, you and I are of the same mind.[ST:wait ] |
| 19 |
|
tev000494_MSG0013 |
Luck may bring victory, but only a fleeting one.[ST:wait ] |
| 20 |
|
tev000494_MSG0014 |
Ability, at sufficient levels, brings not only the possibility[ST:n ]of success, but the near certainty of it.[ST:wait ] |
| 21 |
|
tev000494_MSG0015 |
Success comes unbidden to the skilled; it is acquiring[ST:n ]and increasing those skills that poses the challenge.[ST:wait ] |
| 22 |
|
tev000494_MSG0016 |
How charmingly naïve.[ST:wait ] |
| 23 |
|
tev000494_MSG0017 |
Oh, certainly, such spirit can be a virtue.[ST:wait ] |
| 24 |
|
tev000494_MSG0018 |
But do you truly consider mindlessly throwing yourself[ST:n ]at the same insurmountable challenge over and over[ST:n ]again to be a true path to success?[ST:wait ] |
| 25 |
|
tev000494_MSG0019 |
Let us be realistic, you and I—honing one's skills is the[ST:n ]way to increase the odds of success, not some kind of[ST:n ]intangible...pluck, or grit, or what have you.[ST:wait ] |
| 26 |
|
tev000494_MSG0020 |
And that is why I developed my training regimen.[ST:wait ] |
| 27 |
|
tev000494_MSG0021 |
I do not see NLA as a place for rest and relaxation,[ST:n ]but rather as a forge upon which to temper my skills.[ST:wait ] |
| 28 |
|
tev000494_MSG0022 |
After all, it seems that my rival is honing [ST:Gender p1=his p2=her ] own skills[ST:n ]at an alarming rate.[ST:wait ] |
| 29 |
|
tev000494_MSG0023 |
Therefore, I must work all the harder to compensate.[ST:wait ] |
| 30 |
|
tev000494_MSG0024 |
And now that I have spilled forth my secret, tell me—[ST:n ]what is yours?[ST:wait ] |
| 31 |
|
tev000494_JNK0040 |
Be Evasive |
| 32 |
|
tev000494_SEL0041 |
Say that stuff just...happens. It's nothing special. |
| 33 |
|
tev000494_JNK0050 |
Be Humble |
| 34 |
|
tev000494_SEL0051 |
Say that the credit belongs to Elma. |
| 35 |
|
tev000494_JNK0060 |
Be Honest |
| 36 |
|
tev000494_SEL0061 |
Claim that your success comes from[ST:n ]finishing a great number of missions. |
| 37 |
|
tev000494_MSG0025 |
Hmph. Fine. Keep your secrets close.[ST:wait ] |
| 38 |
|
tev000494_MSG0026 |
So it's to be scorched-earth warfare, then? You would[ST:n ]deny your rival even the dignity of an honest answer?[ST:wait ] |
| 39 |
|
tev000494_MSG0027 |
Very well. I shall succeed through my own strength,[ST:n ]and never again turn to you for succor![ST:wait ] |
| 40 |
|
tev000494_MSG0028 |
How very like you to say that.[ST:wait ] |
| 41 |
|
tev000494_MSG0029 |
It's true, you are certainly lucky to have a skilled[ST:n ]commander such as Elma.[ST:wait ] |
| 42 |
|
tev000494_MSG0030 |
But she sees you as a trusted comrade as well.[ST:wait ] |
| 43 |
|
tev000494_MSG0031 |
No reasonable person would waste effort propping up[ST:n ]a comrade who failed to pull [ST:Gender p1=his p2=her ] own weight.[ST:wait ] |
| 44 |
|
tev000494_MSG0032 |
I cannot believe I'm saying this to my rival, but...[ST:n ]You are who you are because of your own strength[ST:n ]and ability. Not hers.[ST:wait ] |
| 45 |
|
tev000494_MSG0033 |
Although...perhaps your humility IS your secret?[ST:n ]Or a part of it, at least?[ST:wait ] |
| 46 |
|
tev000494_MSG0034 |
I will study it, then, in hopes that it will lead me to[ST:n ]emulate your success. Farewell for now.[ST:wait ] |
| 47 |
|
tev000494_MSG0035 |
I see.[ST:wait ] |
| 48 |
|
tev000494_MSG0036 |
By completing a wide variety of assignments, you've[ST:n ]gathered valuable experience.[ST:wait ] |
| 49 |
|
tev000494_MSG0037 |
I certainly haven't forgotten how effortlessly you[ST:n ]completed the mission that I pushed onto you when[ST:n ]we first met.[ST:wait ] |
| 50 |
|
tev000494_MSG0038 |
Perhaps I merely need more experience to bring out[ST:n ]the strength that lies within me.[ST:wait ] |
| 51 |
|
tev000494_MSG0039 |
Your advice is appreciated.[ST:wait ] |
| 52 |
|
tev000494_MSG0040 |
It seems I have outgrown my special training regimen.[ST:n ]From now on, I will accept more missions in order to[ST:n ]keep pace with my rival.[ST:wait ] |
| 53 |
|
tev000494_MSG0041 |
I will begin by engaging in 10 assignments[ST:n ]simultaneously, then work my way up from there.[ST:wait ] |
| 54 |
|
tev000494_MSG0042 |
Farewell for now.[ST:wait ] |
