"It happened while she was returning from an investigation mission on another world with Vita-chan and some others." "An unidentified object appeared suddenly." "It was an opponent that Nanoha-chan wouldn't have had any problems protecting her allies from" "Or destroying if she were her usual self." "But the stress that she had been under and the way she kept pushing herself made Nanoha-chan slightly less capable." "The result was this." "but let alone be able to fly..." "I can't imagine how she must have felt." "even if it means being reckless or even risking your life. even if it meant risking the safety or life of your comrade?" "just whose sake was that for?"

"I'm really sorry." "I'll comment about it a bit." "you call yourself mediocre and say you can't do anything but shooting and illusion spells." "But you know that's not true." "You and the others are like ore right now." "and it's hard to tell what your true values are." "you'll start seeing parts that shine." "Erio has speed." "Caro has gentle supportive spells." "Subaru has explosive power at short range." "can protect them with your shooting and illusion spells" "And can get through any situation with your courage and wits." "and it's slowly starting to form." "didn't you notice when you were shot?" "they're incredibly hard to evade and really hurt when they hit." "You ignored your most important aspect and rushed to do something else." "That's why something like that happened." "That's what I wanted to teach you."

"Were you able to sleep well?" "Yes." "right?" "But do you know of another term used to refer to an excellent mage?" "it's possible to get through any difficult situation."
