Edward (Dragalia Lost)

Edward: Pardon me, but might I find Master Euden in this castle?
Euden: Oh, yes, that's me.
Edward: Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Edward.
Edward: Would you have any interest in employing me as your butler?
Euden: Well, I don't know that we really need a butler right n-
Ranzal: A butler? Saaaay! So what's a guy like you do, anyway? Buttle?
Cleo: Would we be free to call upon you as well if Euden wished it?
Euden: Gaah! When did you two get here?
Edward: I will lend my services to any and all whom my master wishes, should I come under his employ.
Ranzal: Yer serious?!
Ranzal: Euden, ya gotta hire this guy!
Ranzal: He could really help me out with my chores! Repairin' the castle, takin' care of my weapons- everything!
Cleo: And I could use someone to help me with cooking and keeping our supplies stocked.
Edward: Well, there you have it. What say you, Master Euden?
Euden: Hmmm... All right. If that's what they want, then you're hired.
Edward: Splendid.
Edward: Now then, let us get right to your scheduled tasks for the day.
Edward: Hmm... It seems you've only completed about half of them.
Edward: You shal have to finish training and patrolling the area before lunch.
Euden: I was actually thinking of eating first, since I'm already pretty hungr-
Edward: Unacceptable. Any task scheduled for the morning must be completed by noon.
Edward: After all, that is when you are due to battle some fiends.
Euden: Wait, but that hardly leaves me any time to eat-
Edward: Such are the consequences when you dally in the morning.
Edward: Rest assured, you shall have plenty of time for lunch tomorrow.
Euden: But...
Edward: It was you who wished to hire me as your butler, was it not?
Euden: I...
Edward: As such, while I tend to your daily needs, I shall determine if you are truly worthy of being my master.
Edward: Worry not; I shall manage every facet of your life from here on.
Edward: You shall be an exemplary master in no time.
Edward: Assuming you don't break before that happens, of course.
Euden: Uh... C-Cleo? Ranzal?
Ranzal: ...Ya know what? I should probably just handle things m'self.
Ranzal: So, uh, I'm gonna go make some repairs to the castle!
Cleo: Nor do I require any assistance.
Cleo: Organizing our inventory is a job handled easily by one person.
Euden: D-don't just leave me here...
Edward: Come, Master Euden.
Edward: There is too much to be done for you to pass another moment in idleness. We must begin at once.

Edward: Good morning, master.
Edward: Please get dressed at once.
Edward: You have slept for longer than scheduled.
Euden: Huh? But I woke up way earlier than usual today...
Edward: Making excuses only wastes more time.
Euden: Fine, fine. I'll get changed.
Elisanne: May I come in, Euden?
Euden: Wait, Elisanne? What is she doing here?!
Edward: She has come for a meeting regarding today's campaign.
Edward: I took the liberty of scheduling it yesterday.
Euden: I can't have a meeting while I'm in the middle of changing!
Edward: Had you started your day as scheduled, you would be changed and sipping tea at this very moment.
Edward: Let this serve as a lesson to avoid oversleeping in the future.
Edward: Now then... I believe we've kept Madam Elisanne waiting long enough.
Edward: I shall get the door.
Euden: W-wait!
Euden: *sigh* Lunchtime at last...
Edward: You are holding your spoon incorrectly, Master Euden.
Euden: So? It's not like anyone's watching. Or cares, for that matter.
Edward: Royalty must always adhere to proper etiquette. Anything less would be unbecoming.
Edward: Now, please adjust your grip.
Euden: Fine... There.
Edward: It is improper to make such a racket while one eats.
Edward: Your spoon strikes the bowl each time you dig at the soup.
Euden: Will you just let me eat?!
Edward: Ah, it is almost time for battle. Come.
Euden: Hold on, I haven't even had a single bite!
Edward: I will prepare a light meal instead. If your schedule is delayed further, however, I'm afraid you won't have time to eat that either.
Edward: Master Euden, you are slouching.
Edward: Royalty must always remain tall and dignified, even as they march.
Ranzal: Bwaaa ha ha ha!
Ranzal: Ya just can't catch a break, can ya? Shoula billed himself as a drill sergeant, not a butler.
Euden: None of this is funny.
Ranzal: Ah, c'mon.
Ranzal: Having someone to manage every aspect of yer life is probably great for yer health-
Edward: Master Ranzal!
Edward: Please refrain from any side chatter. It slows your pace, which will adversely affect the reast of today's schedule.
Ranzal: Hey now, don't go worryin' about me. You're Euden's butler, not mine.
Edward: A master is only as strong as his weakest subject, I fear.
Edward: Now then, Master Ranzal, you really ought to straighten your own posture as well. Chin up, eyes forward, and pace steady.
Ranzal: Ugh... Is he always like this, Euden?
Ranzal: You were right. It ain't funny at all.

Euden: Hyaaaahh!
Euden: *pant* *pant*
Euden: I didn't expect so many fiends...
Edward: This is most vexing...
Edward: The schedule calls for you to defeat one fiend every three minutes, but you are taking far longer.
Edward: At this rate, your remaining commitments will be affected.
Edward: Please make haste, master.
Euden: I'm going as fast as I can!
Ranzal: Edward!
Ranzal: We can't be worryin' about schedules in the middle of battle!
Edward: It is my duty to ensure my master stays on schedule!
Edward: Though he is falling further and further behind...
Edward: So be it.
Edward: This is not becoming of a butler, but I am left with no other choice...
Ranzal: Huh? H-hey, what're ya doin'?!
Euden: Edward, no! You can't take on all those fiends by yourself!
Fiend: Graaaagghhhh!
Edward: Too slow.
Euden: What...?
Edward: Careless.
Edward: I shall grant you a swift end.
Ranzal: No way... He cleared out that entire pack'a fiends by himself!
Euden: I had no idea you were so strong, Edward!
Edward: My profession calls for a holistic approach to service.
Edward: A butler too weak to protect his master is no butler at all.
Ranzal: Ya shoulda been out there fightin' from the start instead of fussin' about the time!
Edward: It is a butler's duty to support his master as imperceptibly as possible.
Edward: I wouldn't dare risk stealing glory from my master unless absolutely necessary.
Euden: You're such a skilled fighter, though...
Euden: When do you even find time to train on top of all your butlering?
Edward: After you've retired to your quarters, of course. Then I tran as much as I'm able.
Euden: You train when I'm sleeping?! And yet you still wake up before me each morning...
Euden: I thought managing my schedule was taxing enough for you, but that seems foolish knowing you're doing so much extra work...
Euden: I'll strive to be better, Edward.
Edward: A splendid attitude. I shall increase your responsibilities accordingly.
Euden: Wh-what?! I...I mean... Yes! Definitely do that!
Edward: Oh?
Edward: I must say, that is a better response than I'm accustomed to hearing from you, Master Euden.
Edward: You may not be far off becoming a master worthy of my service.

Euden: Phew... Good work today, Edward.
Edward: You were in fine form yourself, Master Euden.
Edward: Good night.
Euden: Say, Edward? Can I ask you something?
Edward: Certainly. But if I may, please keep it brief; I must prepare tomorrow's schedule.
Euden: Why are you so dedicated to being a butler?
Edward: Hmm...
Edward: I suppose I may confide in you.
Edward: My former master taught me my trade.
Edward: War left me an orphan, but he gave me a home.
Edward: I am the butler I am today thanks to him.
Euden: What happened to him?
Edward: He fell ill and passed away.
Euden: Oh... I'm sorry. This must be difficult.
Edward: There is no need to apologize, master. ...Yet, in truth, I have been unable to overcome the pain of his loss.
Edward: It is something I wish to never experience again.
Euden: Then why did you want me to hire you?
Edward: A butler has no purpose without a master.
Edward: Besides, I could not let the skills my late master taught me go to waste.
Edward: I continue to serve him, even in death, through my dedication to butlering.
Euden: I see.
Euden: You're too hard on yourself, Edward.
Euden: I can understand taking pride in your work, and I truly respect that.
Euden: But if you don't let yourself rest every now and then, you're going to run yourself into the ground.
Edward: Wh-what did you say?!
Edward: My...my late master said the same...
Edward: He was...peculiar.
Edward: In one breath he would tell me that butlers must maintain a respectful distance from their masters...
Edward: And in the next, he would treat me like his own son.
Euden: He sounds like a good man.
Edward: He was the best. After he died, I served many different people.
Edward: I traveled endlessly in search of someone as worthy of my service as he was, but alas, to no avail.
Edward: And then I met you, Master Euden.
Edward: Perhaps you could be...
Edward: Ah! I've spent far too long talking.
Edward: Tomorrow's duties will be impaired if you don't rest soon.
Euden: All right... Thanks again for today, Edward.
Edward: Of course, Master Euden. Good night.

Edward: Master Euden, do you have a moment?
Euden: What is it, Edward?
Euden: I've already taken care of all the things you normally remind me about.
Edward: Indeed, you have made tremendous progress.
Edward: But that is not what I have come to discuss.
Euden: No? What is it, then?
Edward: When we first met, I said something.
Edward: I told you I would determine whether you were worthy of calling yourself my master.
Edward: Having now spent some time under your employ, I have come to my decision.
Euden: Hmm. I'm a bit scared to hear the answer, but go ahead and tell me your verdict.
Edward: Ahem! As a master- and indeed, even as royalty- you are imperfect.
Edward: Firstly, you are far too kind.
Edward: People will not follow you simply because you smile and offer understanding.
Edward: Secondly, you are too quick to trust others.
Edward: This is likely to lead you to an early grave.
Edward: Thirdly, you have an awful tendency to place yourself on the front lines of battle.
Edward: You would do well to consider the burden that places on those who would protect you.
Euden: I see.
Euden: I'm sorry, Edward. I had a feeling I wasn't worthy of your services.
Edward: You misunderstand me.
Edward: I mean to say that you are still very much in need of my guidance.
Edward: Therefore, if you will have me, I would like to continue working here as your butler.
Euden: Y-yes! Absolutely!
Euden: Does that mean you deem me...worthy? Of your service?
Edward: For the moment.
Edward: You may be inexperienced, but you possess all the qualities that make a master worth serving.
Edward: A butler's greatest pleasure in life is sharing that life with his master.
Edward: So I would like to stay here for a while.
Edward: I wish to work for you and share whatever life has in store for us.
Euden: Well, that sounds fine.
Euden: Heh. I'm really glad you're sticking around, Edward.
Edward: The pleasure is mine.
Edward: But please, do not mistake this for an excuse to grow lackadaisical.
Edward: I will be updating my appraisal of you in perpetuity.
Euden: Fair enough.
Edward: Hm... Not even a flinch.
Edward: You have grown strong, Master Euden. A far cry from the prince I first met.
Euden: Hearing that is a nice confidence boost.
Euden: But any improvements you've seen are purely a result of your guidance.
Edward: What a splendid man you've become.
Edward: It seems I should expect more from you going forward.
Edward: Ready yourself, master.
Euden: I look forward to it, Edward.
Edward: As do I.
Edward: My new master...

Ranzal: Say, Euden? Do ya really believe it? If ya ask me, vampires comin' outta the forest at night sounds like a buncha hysterical nonsense.
Euden: The villagers near the Halidom are scared, Ranzal. We can't ignore their concerns.
Ranzal: Yeah, but vampires? I mean, c'mon. They don't even exist! It's all just some wild delusions cooked up for books and tall tales. I'm sure whatever villagers think they saw a vampire just mistook a musty old scarecrow in the moonlight.
Fiend: GRAAAAARGH!
Euden: Did you hear that?!
Ranzal: Sounds like a fiend. C'mon! H-hey, Euden! Check that out! Above the fiend, I mean!
Euden: That coat with the tall standing collar... And the blade dripping with blood... Could that really be a vampire?!
Ranzal: Stay back, Euden! I'll take care of this thing! I dunno if yer the stuff of myth or not, but I bet I can beat ya down just the same!
 ???: Whatever are you talking about?
Euden: Wait, what?
Halloween Edward: Master Euden? Master Ranzal? What are the two of you doing here? I'd not thought you scheduled to come to the woods until later this evening.
Euden: Edward?! Is that you?
Ranzal: What the heck, guy?! Don't give us a shock like that.
Euden: The villagers asked us to come here and exterminate a vampire that had appeared in the woods.
Halloween Edward: Vampires, you say? The fiends of myth? They're here in the forest?!
Ranzal: They were talkin' about YOU, dummy!
Halloween Edward: They were talking...about me...
Euden: I have a feeling they mistook you for a vampire, Edward. In any case, why were you out here in the forest so late at night? Er, and why are you dressed like...you are?
Halloween Edward: I came to serve as a reinforcement for the night's watch. I fear our Halloween preparations have been delayed by the prolonged fiend assaults we've been enduring. I wanted to nip this particularly irksome issue in the bud so that it might no longer hinder your plans, master. ...Like so.
Fiend: GRAAAAARGH!
Euden: I can't believe he saw that coming...
Halloween Edward: Under cover of darkness, one must be ever more sensitive to potential threats.
Ranzal: We ain't got time for a lesson; there's another flock of fiends comin' this way!
Halloween Edward: Let them come! I'll not permit them to run roughshod around these lands. Our schedule has already been delayed enough as it is! My word, but they ARE persistent. They just keep coming!
Euden: His strength is incredible... It's almost like he's an actual vampire!
Ranzal: No kiddin'. No wonder all them village types thought he was some kinda mythological murder machine.
Euden: Either way, you're incredible, Edward. You accomplish whatever you set your mind to, and you're so strong to boot. Heck, you're basically perfect!
Ranzal: Hey, even vampires have flaws and junk, yeah? This old boy ain't no different.
Halloween Edward: As a butler of utmost perfection, I assure you I have nothing remotely approaching a personal flaw.
Ranzal: Aw, horsefeathers! Everybody's got a flaw or three.
Halloween Edward: If you're so insistent, then perhaps you might enlighten me as to what mine are.
Ranzal: Yeah, well... Uh... There must be a food you hate or...something?
Halloween Edward: Sorry, but I'm not terribly picky.
Ranzal: Okay then. What about a person you hate?
Halloween Edward: There are none.
Ranzal: Are ya scared'a ghosts, maybe?
Halloween Edward: Is that the best you can come up with?
Ranzal: Urrrrgh...
Halloween Edward: Well? Do you see now that I possess no flaws or weaknesses of any kind?
Euden: Well, it certainly seems like you might not have any fl—
Ranzal: Wait! Hang on! I'm gonna figure out what yer flaw is, pal! I just need a minute!
Halloween Edward: By all means, take all the time you need. But DO be certain to deal with all of your actual responsibilities, yes?
Ranzal: Just you wait, pal! Ol' Ranzal's gonna have the last laugh on this for sure!
Euden: Well, this got a bit weird. Still I wonder if Edward actually DOES have any flaws...?

Euden: Are you sure this is a good idea, Ranzal? Sneaking around after one of our comrades just feels...wrong.
Ranzal: Aw, it's fine. Ain't like we're followin' him around to jump him or blackmail him or somethin', yeah?
Euden: Still, lurking around in silence behind him doesn't really sit well with me.
Ranzal: Yeah, but if we don't do this, we'll never figure out what Edward's flaws are! Knowin' yer friends' weaknesses can help ya protect 'em better, right?
Euden: Well maybe, but still...
Ranzal: Right?! So let's make with the tailin' already!
Halloween Edward: Let's see, the construction of the candy house is currently at about 70 percent completion, so... Ah, Madam Cleo?
Cleo: Yes? What is it?
Halloween Edward: I've finished ordering the additional flour and sugar needed to complete the Sweet Retreat. The goods are scheduled for delivery tomorrow, so if you'd be so kind as to receive them, I would be grateful.
Cleo: Well, that's a help. We were just about to run out of those things.
Halloween Edward: All of this is to ensure the smooth and prompt progress of our Halloween preparations.
Halloween Elisanne: Cleo? Edward? I'm going on patrol.
Halloween Edward: As I've already completed the north and east patrols, I'd be most grateful if you could take care of the others.
Halloween Elisanne: Already?! You work so fast...
Halloween Edward: Such is expected of a butler like myself.
Euden: ...That sounds like Edward, all right. He always performs his duties admirably.
Ranzal: Yeah, but what's he still doin' dressed in that crazy getup?
Euden: Apparently it's so he's prepared in case fiends attack at some point.
Ranzal: Yeah, or maybe he actually just likes it. I bet it awakened some primal urge what to run around in a costume and—
Halloween Edward: Incorrect. This is no matter of play.
Ranzal: What the—?! Edward?!
Euden: H-how did you know we were here...?
Halloween Edward: How could I not, with the very obvious way in which you two went about trying to shadow me? First of all, you weren't able to hide your tracks. Furthermore, you may have been trying to whisper, but your voices are echoing over hill and dale. Honestly, are your hearts even in this little endeavor of yours?
Ranzal: Eeeeyargh! We're soooorry!
Halloween Edward: And whyever are you fumbling about the place in an attempt to keep tabs on me?
Ranzal: Well, uhh...we were just thinkin' it's gotta be hard to work when you're runnin' around in that unusual outfit, yeah? We were worried about ya! Ain't that right, Euden?!
Euden: Muh?! You didn't say one word abou—
Ranzal: Shhhh! We were supposed to have our stories straight!
Halloween Edward: *sigh* Master Ranzal, would you be kind enough to desist in trying to indoctrinate Master Euden into your wily—and rather inane—ways? I wonder, perhaps, if you weren't tempting him into making an attempt at identifying any potential flaws of mine?
Ranzal: Uhhhh, nope! Not at all! That wasn't what we were up to at all! Nooooo, sir.
Halloween Edward: You truly are as simple to read as a bit of children's verse. You think it hard to work in this ＂unusual outfit＂? Very well. I will prove to the two of you just how unnecessary such concerns are.
Euden: ...Okay, so now we're in the kitchen. Are you seriously about to start cooking something?
Halloween Edward: I am. Let us prepare samples of the food for the Halloween celebration.
Ranzal: Er, with you dressed like that?
Euden: That collar and coat look like they'd really get in the way.
Halloween Edward: Your concerns are needless. ...HAH!
Ranzal: Whoa! Check those knife skills!
Euden: Amazing! He's cutting those vegetables into spiderweb shapes!
Halloween Edward: Ah, but I'm not through yet!
Euden: Now he's hollowing out that pumpkin like it's nothing!
Ranzal: And that ain't all—he's carvin' a design in the pumpkin AND makin' a buncha other grub!
Halloween Edward: ...And voila. A spiderweb-themed salad, and a stew housed in a pumpkin vessel. ...Also, pumpkin pie. Do help yourselves.
Euden: Well, all right... *chomp* Oh my gosh, Edward.
Ranzal: This stuff's mind-blowingly delicious!
Euden: The taste is great, and it looks even MORE incredible!
Halloween Edward: I'm deeply grateful for your kind words. Now, does this help you to understand? My work and my dress have no bearing on one another. If necessary, I would execute my master's wishes to perfection even while clad in nothing at all.
Ranzal: Incredible!
Euden: Um, you can keep your clothes on. Still, you really are perfect, Edward. Maybe he doesn't have any flaws after all...

Euden: We managed to get all the preparations for the Halloween party taken care of, thanks to Edward. I wonder if he's getting enough rest. Directing all the preparations AND taking out fiends has to be exhausting. Hmm? Oh, there he is now. ...And is that Althemia with him?
Halloween Edward: Madam Althemia, how goes progress on the party tricks?
Halloween Althemia: Oh! Umm... Y-you mean like the fog, and...um...bats?
Halloween Edward: Yes, your magical tricks. I trust there is no delay in your preparation?
Halloween Althemia: O-of course not! Obviously I'm done! You don't have to remind me.
Halloween Edward: Splendid. Then I shall call on you again later to confirm things are ready.
Halloween Althemia: Y-yes, by all means.
Euden: Hey there, Edward. You're really burning the midnight oil on the party prep. It seems to be coming together nicely. I know I'm looking forward to it.
Halloween Edward: I appreciate your kind words, but I merely did what was required of me.
Euden: Not at all. It's thanks to all your hard work that we've come this far and done so well. But you haven't taken a single break, have you? How about you give yourself today to relax a little?
Halloween Edward: I must decline, master. I have no need of such things. Besides, I've quite the full schedule ahead of me.
Euden: In that case, I'll take on some of it for you. Will you take a break then? I'm really worried about you overworking yourself.
Halloween Edward: You needn't worry. Working in the service of one's master brings joy to a butler such as myself.
Euden: Hmm... Okay then, what if I ORDERED you to take a load off?
Halloween Edward: Does my master mean to say that he would bid me take a break? If that is what my master wishes, then I, as a faithful servant, could not go against it, however much I might wish to.
Euden: In that case, I order you to relax!
Halloween Edward: That's quite the undignified command. And yet... Oh, very well. I shall take a day of rest for myself.
Euden: Just make sure to do lots of relaxing. It's your one day off, after all. I hope this will lead Edward to let loose a little bit and enjoy himself. Let's see... I'm done with the patrol of the castle perimeter, so next I need to... Whew! Doing his job is making me realize just how much work Edward gives himself. He can do all of this without even batting an eye. What a guy.
Halloween Edward: Master Euden, it's time for lunch. Please come to the dining hall.
Euden: Okay, will do. Thanks, Edward. I... Hey, wait a second! Why are you working?!
Halloween Edward: Is something amiss, master?
Euden: I ordered you to take the day off!
Halloween Edward: Yes, you gave me a day off from work. As such, I've simply opted to spend my time doing whatsoever I please.
Euden: Okay, now you're just searching for a loophole...
Halloween Edward: Oh, dear. We've been standing here gabbing away, and now lunch is late. Please hurry to the dining hall now, Master Euden.
Euden: Okay, okay! I'm going. But will you please take an actual break? PLEASE? Let's see, I've brought in the fresh-baked cookies and the Sweet Retreat, so next on the docket is...
Halloween Edward: ...Hah! ...Yaah! ...Hrgaah!
Euden: Um, Edward? What are you doing?
Halloween Edward: I am practicing my sword swings, master.
Euden: Yes, I can see that. But why are you doing it on your DAY OFF? You're supposed to be RELAXING.
Halloween Edward: What are you talking about? I've plenty of time to myself today, yes? If I don't train now, when will I do so?
Euden: Okay, yes, but... Look, this isn't what I meant at all! I had you take the day because I thought you would be worn out and tired.
Halloween Edward: You worry for me overmuch, Master Euden. I know my own body well, and you've nothing to be worried about.
Euden: Are you sure?
Halloween Edward: I am. And what's more, being idle fills me with unease and ends up rather wearing me down. I am most at ease when I am working hard for you, master.
Euden: I guess I can't argue with that if it's really how you feel...
Halloween Edward: I am grateful for your consideration—and for your allowing me a day of rest, master. That is precisely why I wish to devote this precious time to the things I want to do.
Euden: Well, if you're fine with things...
Halloween Edward: Thank you for your understanding. ...Great heavens, look at the time! I must return to the castle and begin dinner. By your leave, master?
Euden: I get that he's a hardworking guy, but is he really going to be all right?

Euden: Happy Halloween, everyone! Make sure to have lots of fun today!
Halloween Edward: I'm pleased to see the party is proving even more successful than we anticipated.
Euden: Yeah! I'm glad everyone's enjoying themselves. And thanks for all your help getting ready, Edward. Make sure you have some fun today as well, all right?
Halloween Edward: You are most gracious, master. I believe I may take you up on that. Master Euden. Trick or treat?
Euden: Er, what?
Halloween Edward: As I said: Trick or treat? Now, if you won't be giving me a treat, that means you don't mind if I play a trick on you, correct?
Euden: Okay, hang on! I'm pretty sure I've got something prepared for this!
Halloween Edward: *snicker* Aha. Merely joking, master.
Euden: ...Wait, what?
Halloween Edward: But of course. There are limits as to how far a butler can go when playing practical jokes on his master.
Euden: Oh wow, you really had me there. You looked so serious!
Halloween Edward: Ah, but it was you who said you wanted me to enjoy myself, was it not? But for now, I shall keep the practical joking to a moderate level and go on patrol.
Euden: I didn't think there were any signs of fiends around, though.
Halloween Edward: Ah, but I am patrolling INSIDE the castle; we've taken special pains to invite a number of our neighbors to the party. It's not out of the realm of possibility that unsavory types could also weasel their way in amongst the guests.
Euden: That's a good point. I'll go with you.
Halloween Edward: Whatever do you mean? You are the host of this party, master. Leave such trifling details to me and focus instead on watching over the gathering as befits a good host.
Euden: All right, then. I'll leave it to you.
Halloween Edward: Very good, master. Have a happy Halloween.
Bandit 1: Bwa ha ha! ＂Happy Halloween...＂ What a heapin' pile'a nonsense!
Bandit 2: Oy, but it's thanks to all that hullabaloo that we're here in the first place. Now let's make with the stealin'! Grab everything what ain't nailed down and then we'll slip out undetected.
 ???: My, my. It appears I was quite right to come keep an eye on things.
Bandit 1: What the...? Who's there?!
Halloween Edward: Good evening, gentlemen! Did you get lost on the way to the privy, perchance? This is not the venue for the party.
Bandit 1: Jumpin' dragons! Ain't that the vampire what folks have been whisperin' about lately?! The one from the forest?!
Bandit 2: D-don't be an idiot! Look at those clothes! This guy's a castle butler, mark my words!
Bandit 1: What's the big idea, scarin' us like that?!
Bandit 2: Look here, Jeeves! We hate to interrupt while you're workin', but it's time for you to take a little nap!
Halloween Edward: Do you truly believe I am but a simple butler?
Bandit 1: H-hey, what's goin' on?! Where'd all this fog come from?!
Bandit 2: Dammit! I can't see a thing! Aaagh! There's somethin' flyin' around!
Bandit 1: Was that a bat? Wait just a minute... Ya don't think that guy really is a vam— Gya! I got a cold feelin' on the back of my neck!
Halloween Edward: OoooOOoOOooo... If you aim to steal from this castle, I shall have to take something of suitable value in exchange. Perhaps, for example...your blood?
Bandit 2: EEEEEEEEEEK! HE'S A VAMPIRE! HE'S A VAMPIIIIIIRE!
Euden: Edward! Are you okay?!
Halloween Edward: Ah, Master Euden. What are you doing here? The party should still be going on.
Euden: I was worried about you. And when I came to check up on things, I heard shrieks. ...Um, Edward? Who are these people, and why are they unconscious on the floor?
Bandit 1: Hnnngh...
Halloween Edward: Merely some thieves who sought to use the cover of the party to steal from the castle, master.
Euden: Okay, but what did you DO to them?
Halloween Edward: Just a little trick. It IS Halloween, after all. I gave them a little shock with the magical contrivances—fog and bats—whipped up by Madam Althemia. Combined with a touch of vampiric behavior on my part, and we have the sight you see before you.
Euden: And the shock surprised them so much that they fainted?
Halloween Edward: Quite so. As a result, I managed to bring about a resolution without any unnecessary fighting.
Euden: Wow, you really know your stuff, Edward. They didn't steal a single thing, either.
Halloween Edward: Protecting the castle is yet another of my duties as a butler...afteeer...aaaaalllll...
Euden: Edward?! You look like you're about to fall over! Are you okay?!
Halloween Edward: I... Yes. Please, do not trouble yourself. Just a light spell of dizziness. Nothing more. Now then! I shall dispose of these miscreants outside the castle grounds. Please return to the party, master. Now, if you will excuse me?
Euden: I'm really worried about him...

Euden: It's so quiet... Hard to believe that just a little while ago the place was bustling with a party. What a blast that Halloween was. ...Hmm?
Halloween Edward: Ah, Master Euden. Out for a late-night stroll?
Euden: I was having trouble falling asleep. Maybe I got overexcited from all the fun at the party. I just wanted to take it all in for a little bit longer.
Halloween Edward: That's certainly not a problem, but please do be sure to get a proper evening's rest. If you end up oversleeping on account of this little jaunt, it would interfere with tomorrow's schedule, after all.
Euden: Heh. All right. But what about you?
Halloween Edward: I am conducting the night patrol. As we've already had one bunch of thieves creep into the castle, it would be best to remain vigilant with our patrols.
Euden: Wait, you've been patrolling all this time?! Look, I'll take care of it from here. You go and get some sleep.
Halloween Edward: I am quite all right. Please take your own rest, Master Euden. You need to account for your own sleep and time as we—Ah!
Euden: Edward! ...See? I told you that you're exhausted.
Halloween Edward: M-merely a brief dizzy spell...
Euden: ...Edward? ...Edward! Stay with me!
Halloween Edward: Ugh... Wh-where am I...?
Euden: You're in my room.
Halloween Edward: Master Euden?! Whatever happened...?
Euden: You gave me a nasty scare, that's what. We were in the middle of talking when you suddenly collapsed.
Cleo: Very likely from overwork.
Halloween Edward: Madam Cleo?!
Elisanne: And me. I heard Euden shout and came running.
Ranzal: And I brought ya to the closest room, which happened to be this one.
Halloween Edward: Madam Elisanne... Master Ranzal...
Luca: AHEM! C'mon, Edward! Who do you think brought that fruit and water from the kitchen?
Halloween Edward: Even Master Luca went to such trouble? Ah, but I am truly sorry.
Elisanne: You've nothing to be sorry for, Edward. WE'RE sorry for not being more attentive to your needs.
Ranzal: Guess we just sorta ended up relyin' on ya for pretty much everything.
Cleo: Caring for those around you all the time builds fatigue. It's really no wonder this happened.
Luca: So now you should rest and make up for all the hard work you did for us. Got it?
Halloween Edward: Yes, but what about my work for tomorr—
Ranzal: We got it. You just relax.
Cleo: I think it's about time for all of us to be getting back to our own rooms. You'll never be able to rest and recover if we continue making noise here.
Euden: I'll look after him, so all of you should go and get some sleep.
Elisanne: All right. Have a good night, Euden. You too, Edward.
Halloween Edward: Master Euden... I'm truly sorry for this burden. Collapsing in front of my master is proof positive of my inability to care for myself. And that is in spite of my repeated boasts that I was quite all right. I truly am sorry.
Euden: Really, don't worry about it. ...Although I think I've figured out your flaw.
Halloween Edward: Ah. Is it hubris?
Euden: It's that you don't know how to switch yourself off and rest.
Halloween Edward: Wh-why that's simply... I... No. With things as they stand now, any explanation I may have will ring most hollow indeed.
Euden: You're serious, dedicated, and responsible. You work so hard, which makes it easy to rely on and trust you. But I'd like you to be realistic and not push yourself past your limits when things are busy or hard. I want you to put yourself first from now on. Practice self-care.
Halloween Edward: Ah, but I am a disappointing butler. And that is in spite of the concern you showed for me before. In the end, I ended up in this unsightly state, quite thoroughly useless to anyone.
Euden: Everyone fails, Edward. What matters is what you do WHEN you fail. Don't you agree? The Edward I know isn't the type to keep making the same mistakes.
Halloween Edward: Hmm... Yes, I suppose so. I shall not let you see this unsightly side of me again. I will do as you've requested and take a good and proper rest.
Euden: Good. That will give me peace of mind. I'm still going to be relying on you moving forward, you know?
Halloween Edward: Master Euden... Your words do me a great honor.
Euden: Oh, but if you actually remember to rest every now and then, it means you won't have a flaw anymore.
Halloween Edward: And yet I've had a weakness all along, sir.
Euden: Have you? What is it?
Halloween Edward: It is my one and only weak point, so I can't breathe a word of it to another soul.
Euden: It might be good for me to know about it though, as a comrade. ...Actually, you know what? Don't worry about it. Whatever weaknesses you or I might have, we'll make up for them by sharing our strengths with one another.
Halloween Edward: I would expect no less than this kind of thinking from you. ...My stars and garters! Look at the time! I apologize for commandeering your bed for the entire evening.
Euden: It's fine. Keep it for the night.
Halloween Edward: Are you certain, sir? I am still able to walk and could return to my own—
Euden: Keep it, Edward. Sleep in. Wake up late. See what it feels like. ...Good night, Edward.
Halloween Edward: It would appear that I truly am susceptible to your words, master. I shall indeed take a nice long rest. Thank you, master.
