Your well-being is more important than whether I'm worried or not, Ishi-san, [ they reply, sounding distressed, too, but they shake their head, dismissing the topic. ] Don't talk like that. There's more you can do than just fight. I know you're a sword, but you're more than that, too - that's why you've got that body in the first place, right?
[ they look him in the eye, serious. ]
I can't fight at all. If someone comes after me to kill me, I'm sure I won't have a chance. Even so, I'm trying my best to save everyone. As long as you're not dead, you have to try.
