This chapter's epigraph comes from a line from the novel's first chapter, "The Origins of Fire Force Company 8 Part One" . It's a quote from the book's opening line, which states that "the origins of the fire force company" refers to the "special fire force" , which is the military branch of the Imperial Army.

She's also a bit of a tomboy, so Milady can't understand why Milady isn't being more critical of Milady when she's working so hard to help her father's cause. She says that Milady should go to church to get her gun baptized so she can learn how to use it properly, but that's not going to make Milady a better person. She also says that if Milady were to get shot, he'd rather it be a baptized gun than an unbaptized gun, since the latter is more likely to change the way he thinks about her and her family . He says he's been wounded a few times, so he'll have to kill Milady before Milady turns into an infernal, which means Milady
