Kjelle
*Huff, huff* Robin!

Robin
Goodness, what's wrong?! You look like you sprinted here!

Kjelle
Spar with me! No practice weapons! No quarter! Spar with me for true!

Robin
I...didn't see this coming.

Kjelle
Those who lack strength have no place in this army. I will be the one to test you!

Robin
You think me weak?

Kjelle
I will save judgment until we have crossed weapons. But I advise you not to take me lightly. I'm stronger than most men!

Robin
I refuse your challenge. Only a fool risks injury in anything more than practice. And by your tone of voice, I'm guessing this is more than simple training.

Kjelle
Ha! Look at the craven! Are you so afraid of losing to a woman?

Robin
I'm afraid that satisfying your idle curiosity isn't reason enough for me to fight. We've more than enough fighting to do as it is. Save it for our opponents.

Kjelle
Coward! Craven! Yellow belly! Gutless, recreant, fainthearted cur!

Robin
Oh, for the love of... *sigh* Fine! Fine. We'll spar. But just this once!

Kjelle
Once will be enough. Have at you!

Kjelle
Robin! I demand one more round!

Robin
...All right. But this is honestly the last and final time. Truly.

Kjelle
Then have at you!

Robin
...... You've lost.

Kjelle
What?! We've not even started!

Robin
Look at your stance. You're too tense. You've lost before you've begun.

Kjelle
Are you mocking me, sir?!

Robin
No, I'm informing you. That's the stance of someone relying solely on brute force. It won't work on me.

Kjelle
A hollow boast! But let's see how you handle...THIS! ...Gwaaagh?! S-so fast! How did you—

Robin
You seem to forgo any tactic beyond blindly charging your foe. If so, you'd best get used to this bite of steel at your throat.

Kjelle
...I yield.

Robin
......

Kjelle
I challenged you with the idea of gauging your skills, Robin. But instead, I find my own prowess has been called into question. ...When you said I relied on brute force, it...upset me.

Robin
You're a talented fighter, Kjelle. Just...reckless. I only know your weakness because I've watched you work. However, I'm hardly the best this world has to offer. Some opponents will see you coming a mile away. You won't stand a chance.

Kjelle
......

Robin
Perhaps I spoke too harshly. Forgive me. ...I'll leave you to your thoughts.

Kjelle
Damn him... He's right.

Kjelle
...Hngh!

Robin
Something wrong, Kjelle?

Kjelle
Er, I'm... It's nothing!

Robin
You're hurt, aren't you?

Kjelle
I said it's nothing. A scratch.

Robin
Even the smallest wound can fester. Let's have a look.

Kjelle
Ah!

Robin
It's fresh... This is from that last battle? It's a clean cut, at least. Shouldn't even leave a scar, if treated soon enough. It must have been some opponent if they were able to leave such a memento.

Kjelle
She was...quite fearsome. The old me might not have survived the encounter.

Robin
Before training, you mean?

Kjelle
Before sparring with you. Your words have made me stronger.

Robin
You mean the bit about not relying on brute force? I'm happy to hear it was useful.

Kjelle
I had fought every previous battle on pure momentum. I fancied myself better than any man. Stronger. That's why I needed to face you twice; I couldn't believe the initial result. But strength is more than muscle alone. A keen eye, a quick mind... Any of these things can decide a battle as sure as might. It was you who taught me that.

Robin
Glad to hear that, indeed, especially coming from your lips... Aaand...there. Wrapped up and ready to go. How does the bandage feel?

Kjelle
...Just fine. Thank you.

Robin
My pleasure.

Kjelle
Robin!

Robin
Kjelle... Is everything all right?

Kjelle
I need you to spar with me one last time. ...Please.

Robin
I'm guessing your reasons are different than before?

Kjelle
They are. So will you grant me this request?

Robin
No holding back. Agreed?

Kjelle
I'll come at you with all I have!

Robin
Hyaaah!

Kjelle
Yaaah!

Robin
Ngh! ...Yield! I yield! ...You win today, Kjelle. ...And now that you read me as well as I can read you, I doubt I'll ever win again. I'm certainly no match for your power.

Kjelle
...... Thank you for indulging me. My head feels clear again. It's put my feelings in order.

Robin
Oh?

Kjelle
I wasn't sure before, but now I know that... That I love you.

Robin
Wait, you... I mean, I don't... Do you mean it?

Kjelle
I haven't stopped thinking of you since my first defeat at your hands. At first I thought I was just angry. My wounded pride and all... But that wasn't it. Or not all of it, anyway. Somewhere along the way, spite gave way to affection. I realized it was not anger that kept you in my thoughts. It was love.

Robin
Kjelle, I... Thank you. It's hard for me to believe you really feel this way. Especially since I, too, have been entranced ever since our first duel. Seeing you throw yourself into training... It was quite the impressive sight. And attractive, if I may be so bold.

Kjelle
You may be so bold, sir. For you've become the source of that drive in me.

Robin
Then I'm the one who should feel flattered. You're an incredible woman, Kjelle. From here on, we can spur each other on to greater heights. Be each other's drive.

Kjelle
I'd be honored, Robin!

[Confession CG scene]
With you at my side, I feel as strong as newly forged steel. I...I adore you.
