Now that I think of it, she was never a good liar was she… DO NOT WAVER! DON’T LET HER GET INTO YOUR HEAD! BLUFF IT! YA GOTA MAKE IT CONVINCING! IN THE NAME OF LOVE, YOU WILL DESTROY THE WORLD, COME ON GIRL. YESSSSSSSSS!!!!! BLACKMAIL THAT BITCH RIGHT BACK AT HER. And that was absolutely fantastic……until Omnibus hijacked the momentum and turned the tables, getting Cardia to agree to save Saint-Germain under the conditions she kills herself…. This was the same for Cardia, who went to negotiate with Omnibus, boldly threatening to destroy the world with the help of Finis’ Pendant, the key to her true form. Once Saint-Germain made his resolve, even if it was going to cost his life, he wanted to fight for Cardia’s future, so that she would have the chance to live a more peaceful and happy life, even if it’s not with him. In the end, their love for one another brought out their most courageous and daring qualities. And it’s really because of her willingness to fight for their love is what empowered them to overcome this conflict together, and find their happy ending. These little things threw him off-guard, he wasn’t expecting her to read him so well. By doing so, she started narrowing down the list of possibilities based on his behaviour, and ultimately came to the conclusion someone had ordered him to assassinate her. Being able to get a read on him also proved to be incredibly important as she knew she could not get answers in regards of why he must kill her. She knew she loved Saint-Germain, and was not shy to express her feelings to him. She also surprised me with how conscious she was of her own feelings, something we have seen her struggle in other routes. Despite Saint-Germain’s mask, she was able to see through the cracks and discern his sadness. If she was going to be killed, he felt he had to be the one to do it, because he feared should she be killed by one of his colleagues, or anyone else for that matter, she would have an agonizing death.Īs for Cardia, I felt she had appeared to be a a lot stronger, bold, and sharp-minded in this route. Perhaps the most bittersweet part about this story was how despite being given the mission to assassinate Cardia, Saint-Germain hesitated countless times, gave her countless windows of opportunities to get out of this situation, and even outright told her how much time she had. And once again, he was forced upon a task to kill the one he has fallen in love with, by Omnibus who thought by doing so, would liberate him from his past mistake. And the fact he could not kill the child he had grown close to just shows this man is not a monster, nor is he a psychopath, but one who actually has a heart that is being forcefully locked away by the chains of Idea. Every time he kills, it only makes him feel worse. And since the child survived, he in turn ended up spreading the Black Plague that wiped out a third of Europe’s population.īut what makes his backstory so heart-wrenching is the fact Saint-Germain takes no pleasure in massacring villages. His greatest crime was being unable to kill a child he had grown attached to. He was also responsible for not just finishing Finis off for good, but assassinating the long lost Isaac Beckford. It turns out he has been dead for thousands of years, his soul was cut away from his corpse and was placed into a cursed immortal vessel, and was tasked to slaughter countless people and in turn saved million others. There was even a point I wondered if he could use magic, and my suspicions of supernatural phenomena continued when he revealed he was an Agent of Destiny, who served as a “Messenger” (a more sophisticated name for his role as an Assassin). I also became suspicious of the fact he seemed to be aware of people’s fates and the roles they played. He was shrouded in so much mystery, his ambiguous introduction and the heroine not noticing his presence right away screamed to me he was either immortal, a ghost or some sort of supernatural being. But compared to Van’s, this is more like a romantic tragedy because our two lovebirds are up the most formable enemy: Idea, an order that focuses on “guiding” humanity on what they believe, is the ‘Correct Path’.įrom the very beginning, I knew Saint-Germain was immortal. …And just when I thought this game couldn’t have a more tragic route, comes along Saint-Germain! Holy shit this route, THIS ROUTE ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED ME. Did I mention TOTALLY SUSPICIOUS? This guy is so mysterious… It makes me curious! Early Prediction: He’s immortal. Says he “claims” to be from certain places. First impression: Suspenseful first encounter, gave a me a fright.
