4 4 301 DialogEnable 1 Celica Sir, the Gray Raven Commandant has arrived. 1
5 5 301 Inside the large laboratory, only Asimov is there debugging various machines.
6 6 302 Are you alone again? 7

9 9 301 1 Asimov The others have gone to bed since they've been working all night. 2
10 10 302 What about you? 11
11 11 301 Asimov ...I'm not tired. 2
12 12 204 1 4
13 13 301 Celica Asimov! I told you and your team not to overwork yourselves, remember? 1
14 14 301 Asimov Sure... Anyway, remember that I entrusted you with testing the CUBs? 2
15 15 302 I do, but... 16
16 16 301 Asimov Regarding the project, there has been some... how to say... 2
17 17 202 1
18 18 302 Sorry, I need to go. I just remembered that I've got a meeting... 19

20 20 301 The smiling Celica swiftly closes the door to the lab unexpectedly, blocking your way out.

22 22 301 1 Celica You must've misremembered. I've checked, and you don't have any meetings today. 1
23 23 302 Of course you have. 24
24 24 204 1
25 25 301 Asimov I guess I'll carry on then... We've received two pieces feedback, one of which is not good and the other is bad. Which one do you want to hear first? 2
26 26 302 Isn't that the same thing…? 27
27 27 301 Asimov Well, not exactly. You know, the tests and preliminary data collection for the CUB are done... 2
28 28 302 That's good news! 29
29 29 301 Asimov Sure, but we've noticed that its AI is lacking without the support of a database, so it can't adapt to complex situations on the battlefields. 2
30 30 301 Asimov Though it doesn't require a perfect AI performance, some combat patterns are needed as a data reference. 2
31 31 302 That's tricky... but I don't think I can help. 32
32 32 301 Celica Just wait and let Asimov finish what he has to say. 1
33 33 301 Asimov But we can solve this by simulating encounters with different enemies in different environments—although we have already run out of time on that. 2
34 34 302 That's the "not good news"? What about the bad news? 35
35 35 301 Asimov taps the holographic projection display and refreshes the screen, and the word "Chestlefield" pops up.
36 36 301 Asimov To speed up the process, we've developed "Chestlefield", a program simulating some popular tabletop games from the Golden Age. Given your experience with a CUB, we need you to carry out the test. 2
37 37 302 So... it's a game? 38
38 38 301 Asimov Technically, you could say so. 2
39 39 302 Is it... safe? 40
40 40 301 Asimov points to the coffee in his hand.
41 41 301 Asimov Safe…? It's at least safer than this cold cup of coffee. 2
42 42 302 That's not bad news. 43
43 43 301 Asimov It's not. I haven't mentioned the bad news. 2
44 44 302 You haven't? 45
45 45 204 1 2
46 46 401 1 202
47 47 301 Asimov The real bad news is that the main rule designer of the simulation program is the one standing beside you. Celica. 2
48 48 302 What?! 49 I've got to go! 49
49 49 204 1 5
50 50 301 Celica Wait! Take a look at my design! You'll be fascinated, I promise! 1
51 51 301 Asimov Just so you know, I'm only responsible for the data collection. I haven't tampered with the content of this program yet... 2
52 52 301 Celica Mr. Asimov, enough talking... Sit down here, Commandant. I'll teach you how to do it! 1

54 54 301 Celica pins you down with a surprisingly strong forearm and activates the test program.
