"Brother, you're not going to hurt them, are you? They... they were good to me while you were gone."
Nivelle's trembling, anxious voice reached my ears clearly, even amidst the chaos of battle. He hovered in the air, his small body trembling as he watched the unfolding scene in terror.
"Don't worry, Nivelle," I said, my gaze never leaving the vines Rose sent hurtling toward me. "I'm just getting them out of our way. I won't truly harm them."
Nivelle continued to hover, watching me listlessly. He was torn. Part of him wanted to stop his brother, but the other part couldn't bear to oppose him. He had to support the only person he had left in this world.
I continued to incinerate the thorny vines surging toward me with the dark touch of my Chaos Flames. With my katana, I sliced through the X-shaped wind shear Rose sent at me simultaneously.
"Give up, Rose! What you're doing is pointless! You can't stop me!"
