I know that we might not potentially avoid deaths, or more people dying. But if you give up like that already when we've barely put our foot through the door, that's an insult to the dead.

We're only one week in the mission proper, Battler-kun.

The very moment we start saying things like that, the very moment we let things make us upset or mad or despair...

That's how we lose. And I refuse to do that. If I have to be cruel and heartless in order to achieve that goal, I won't hesitate.
