Hayami out there with the armor-piercing questions.

Reading that post triggered a memory about there being a similar line in this game… went digging for it… and found it.

“Why do you lie…? Why do you lie to your own heart…?”

“…this way, no one would be hurt…“I’d rather lie than hurt others.”…that’s what I thought.”

“Your feelings would hurt others… is that what you’re saying?”

“…my feelings… or… my existence, maybe…”

Translations improved from whatever Google Translate + DeepL gave.
