[Truly countries and soldiers were meant to be--but he blinks at that, a little overwhelmed. America had said something similar, really, but...even so, it's more of a compliment than he would ever ask for.
"He is lucky to have you", but as far as Sousei is concerned, he's the lucky one, to be able to have a country to protect and serve.]
... All I need is to be able to protect my country. [but... even so, it's not a bad thing to hear. Even if he is extremely awkward as he glances away, almost sheepish at the praise.] That is enough for me.
[Definitely, if they could brofist, that is what should happen. And if America would think the same, then it's definite that Sousei is a model citizen not just of Japan, but of the world.
She shakes her head, but she gives him his moment. If he insists on giving her respect for being a country, then she is certain that he loves his own very much. Hearing this from an actual walking and talking source, well--]
Exactly why Japan is so lucky. Your humility reminds me of him.
[...Ah. Well. If he can remind Vietnam of his country, that's another compliment for sure. He's really not going to be able to handle these compliments if they keep happening.... stop that.
He can't take this, okay.]
...Regardless. [Dismissing the compliment would be rude, but he can't easily accept it either, okay.] I cannot do my proper duty here, but I haven't forgotten it.
[He'll return and defend his country properly...someday........]
Until then, I would prefer to properly honor the other countries here. [though there...seem to be fewer of them nowadays.....and he didn't exactly honor america....]
[She can't stop being honest, it just happens that compliments and honesty are going hand in hand right now. Sorry not sorry, Sousei.]
In a way, you indirectly are protecting your country. That is, aside from certain secrets hidden from us. [If it is true, that they are survivors sent to find a way to protect their worlds, then yes, Sousei is protecting Japan that way. If they are kidnapped for other reasons, well...]
Ah, well, I am indeed touched. As we at least share the same continent, I will do my best for you too. [She'll get him to treat her normally slooowly. And honestly, she talks smack about America all the time, she wouldn't blame Sousei at all.]
...Yes. I find it difficult to trust any promises that I have not yet seen the evidence of for myself, but... for now, I will continue to do my best as well.
[As for Vietnam doing her best for him...he blinks, tilting his head slightly.]
That--isn't necessary. I am honored, but there is no need for that.
