Instead, it initiated a direct communictation through the psyche.\nOut of all the languages I knew, the Abnormality appeared to use my most commonly used one. I did not see sound-producing organs like the mouth or a vocal cord in motion.\n\"Bring the Snow White,\" spoke the Abnormality. A report on the former L Corp. I analyzed after disengaging suggests that it has a connection with F-04-42.\nIn addition, I discovered a corpse that seemed to belong to the staff that arrived here before us for preliminary investigation. Their ID confirmed that they were from the Operations Planning department, so we retrieved the remains and left the scene before a battle could break out.\nConcluding the report."

This is based on the managerial procedures retrieved from the branch facility.\nI will describe its behavior during combat.\nIt attacks using growths of vines. It wraps its vines around itself as well, forming a shape that resembles a dress; it's possible that it believes itself to be a \"noble\".\nIts vines are used in a variety of ways, such as persistently stabbing one Sinner, and rising from the floor to injure multiple Sinners.\nIn addition, its sturdy exterior made it difficult to damage.\nIn one battle where many Sinners were lost, we managed to remove one of its arms (As I could most aptly describe). I found that it could no longer perform the attack that targets all Sinners.\nI will record any additional discoveries I observe in future encounters.\nConcluding the report."

Though Heathcliff's head was destroyed as well, it should be a negligible loss since that one is a renewable asset.\nIt continued to move and attack despite the lack of a head, but we found that its exterior became significantly soft.\nRemoving its \"limbs\" became a much more manageable task.\nAlthough the head grew back after a period of time, the removal of its arms and legs in the meantime freed us from the threat of powerful attacks for the rest of the operation.\nConcluding the report."

I like that.\n→ While the willingness to fight is admirable, this log is for observations rather than decrees of your determination.\n→ Sorry… I'll do it right next time."

The idea of replacing the flesh with something else was unpleasant to me.\nBut now I see. What's really unpleasant...is believing that your thought is the only correct one...and letting that thought consume your mind whole."

I am aware that whether or not an Abnormality has an intact head is completely irrelevant to its ability to show activity, but I will note this regardless.\n-An inflated sack visible around the chest area.

No, there may have been more, as it possessed more than three mouths.\nAtop the canine heads was the figure of a person, charred beyond recognition. Though a combustion of that degree normally would have reduced such a figure to ashes, its form was as solid as it could be, its muscles even showing motion.\nIn addition, a heap of wooden telephone poles are lodged into the wolves' body as stakes would a prisoner. They seem to periodically emit electricity, but I couldn't fathom through what means they were able to do so.\nSuch is all I have to say."

Which reminded me of animals tested under similar conditions in the laboratory.\nUsing electric stimuli, those animals were made to move as some other being intended.\nIt made me wonder if the same is happening to this creature.\nWhile its claws hurt me gravely, I felt an ounce of pity for it as well.\nSuch is all I have to say."

Collecting lightning in its body, it used the power to fuel itself.\nAlas, its usage of the lightning's energy was not for a self-motivated purpose such as pursuit of strength;\nthe accumulated electric forces appeared to dictate its motion, giving me the impression that it was the will of the sky that it followed.\nWhile drawing up such thoughts, Miss Faust reminded me that it's not right to have such impressions of Abnormalities.\nThus, I conclude the log here lest it becomes too sentimental."

First off, there's a whole lotta snakes.\nIt's got these huge serpents instead of arms, and... Bwegh, they kept flicking their tongues. Are those the \"fingers\"?\nAnd that's not all. Smaller snakes were poking their heads out of the armor, too.\nIsn't the whole suit filled with snakes?\nYipes, I wanna unsee that mental image!"

Ugh, what a mess that was.\nI don't remember when I died or when I got back...\nBut I'm never getting that image outta my head for the rest of my life...\nDante, darling, could you please let me stay behind next time we fight these~?\n→ While I'm sure I don't need to remind you, Dante, you should be selective about approving requests from Sinners.\n→ Are you underestimating our Executive Manager?

Maybe they'd be tolerable if they weren't snakes!"
