Cleric Hildegard hailing from Landen Monastery, code name: Archetto. Temporarily at Rhodes Island serving certain collaborative business aims, proactive in putting forward all sorts of proposals, urging that both sides open up amicable dealings. Simultaneously displays exceptional combat proficiency across a breadth of operations; at her own request, presently serves as a Rhodes Island Sniper Operator, active on all manner of missions.

Imaging tests reveal clear, normal outlines of internal organs, and no abnormal shadows have been detected. Originium granules have not been detected in the circulatory system and there is no sign of infection. At this time, this operator is believed to be uninfected. [Cell-Originium Assimilation] 0% Operator Archetto shows no signs of Originium infection. [Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.12u/L As a Laterano convent with enduring reputation, Landen Monastery places immense value on its clergy's attention to their health and physical rudiments. Prior to her actual admission checkup, Miss Archetto provided Medical the last five years of her annual health assessments for reference. Aside from the need for Miss Archetto to be aware how her height might challenge her, everything's normal.

A lot of the time, Archetto seems rather like a businesswoman. Obviously, not a criticism, but compared to sweeping the barren soils, driving out mutated Originium slugs and other such missions, Archetto reserves her fervor for the exploration of business opportunities from every angle. Aside from her specialized bow and arrows, she also keeps on her several dozen pamphlets advertising Landen Monastery. If not for Executor's anecdotes about the monasteries, we may well have thought Landen a fly-by-night company on the verge of bankruptcy... Archetto has said that her sisters are scattered all across the land nowadays, trying to look for a way forward for Landen Monastery, but only Archetto has ventured as far as Lungmen, Siracusa and Sargon, with little to show for it. She was impotent alone, and needed to find a trusty collaborative partner. It was bearing all this in mind that Archetto finally came to seek Rhodes Island's cooperation.

Archetto is of half-Victorian, half-Laterano descent. She grew up in Laterano, and deeply loved her free and open homeland. She could've become a scholar and stayed with her alma mater, or succeeded her mother's furniture store, but Hildegard at the tender age of ten chose to join Landen Monastery, becoming one of the honored Landen Guard, devoting her own due power to the defense of Laterano. Archetto's archery skills come from her father, an ordinary Victorian hunter. Come fall and through winter, if safety held, he would take Hildegard out of the city, to the great snowcapped mountains. As Hildegard learned the arrow, she displayed incomparable talent, which would serve as a foundation for her outstanding displays at Landen Monastery in the future. However, every time life at the monastery comes up, the cheery and earnest Archetto takes up a begrudging look. Whether the lax elders or the ever-snoozing Landen bishopry, it seems Landen Monastery is a peerlessly undisciplined, carefree place. 'If there weren't a sign on it, you could call it a nursing home and I'd believe you,' so Archetto laments. Though by the looks of it, she truly did enjoy her time back there.

Concerning whether it was idleness and negligence that reduced Landen Monastery to its present state—this is fantasy. No matter their financial issues, they still uphold a soldier's basic virtues. Of course, we can't forget their Landen Monastery-exclusive secret recipe cystymilk bread either, of which Archetto repeatedly sings the praises. Maybe it's the soil and the feed that give Landen Monastery's cystybeasts such voluminous builds, with milk nothing like the oily, throat-parching stuff from Ursus breeds. They use this cystymilk to make cheese, and pour it over the bread after melting it, producing the exquisite, second-to-none taste of a monastery's special cystymilk bread. Beyond that, the monastery also has an in-house brewery. Their beer, with malt concentrations to beat them all, has a distinct aroma, once welcomed by aristocrats lucky enough to sample it. In the early days, the Landen bishopry had no interest in any industrial pipeline for the monastery to scale up production of the beer, it spread only by word of mouth amongst nobles and religious figures, but come Landen Monastery's economic winter, plenty of voices rose up inside. A young bishop declared: 'In all honesty, I don't care whether we make the tradition a commodity, or we don't. But taking faith and peddling it—that deserves our wholehearted resistance.' When a monastery fully becomes a mercenary organization, a pasture and a brewhouse all at once, it can be bewildering. Nevertheless, seeing how proud Archetto looks as she markets those goods, surely Laterano's a fine enough place.

Archetto has mastered three unusual ways of utilizing arrows, and her bow is just as unusual, a product of elaborate upgrades. Naturally, some were directed by Landen Monastery's older archers. Some suggestions came from the easy-going young Landen bishopry. By the end, even 'it can catapult' had made it in, and it was a weapon far beyond the realm of arrows at first glance. However, no matter what it was now, it couldn't fall short with Archetto's excellent firing technique working it. These came from Archetto's childhood winters, when her father would take her to the great snowcapped mountains. He taught her how to hunt, how to draw a bow, how to aim. That said, relying only on a bow and arrow to rejuvenate a monastery would be utter nonsense. Once she left Laterano, Miss Archetto fumbled her way through the bishopry's remaining contacts, one by one visiting a great many cities, signing just as many deals. But Archetto knew deep down the Monastery was hardly an industrial plant, and these business deals hither and thither would less change the Monastery's current condition than it would take the Monastery's growth somewhere strange. Aiming to find the Monastery a true foundation for long-term collaboration, using any means she cares for, Archetto still strives to this day. Of course, 'almost took a wrong path' describes more than the Monastery, but for now, let's not look too hard into that time someone nearly induced Archetto to become an intercity net idol.

Landen Monastery: unlike general-knowledge Laterano teachings, its core reason for establishment lies in protecting the personal safety of the Apostle and important members of the clergy. The greatest difference between the Monastery and the Notarial Hall, or any other Laterano institution—the Monastery actively accept believers from beyond Laterano, and will offer them the chance to serve the Apostle. Time was, the Monastery adopted more of an employer model, receiving the devotion of pious warriors; back then, they earned the moniker 'Landen Guard.' However, as times changed, the Landen Guard began facing all sorts of problems with their employment framework. With a certain bishop's backing, the Monastery presided over the establishment of a complete educational system, further trialing the admission of a few youths to study at the Monastery. After that, the bishop also suggested that 'the Monastery ought to become a buoy of our faith,' and advocated admission of persons beyond Laterano. After that, some bishopry even suggested that 'justice is as faith,' and that Landen Monastery needn't be confined to the security and guarding of large-scale religious activity, as long as they could guard their true love, their Laterano—and so Landen Monastery appeared across every corner of the world. 'History pushes for Landen Monastery's progress. In other words, we struggle and struggle so as to avoid becoming a relic. Really, we've just been more and more unable to find work, and we've had to expand business, and that's all, isn't it?'
Doctor, have you ever considered some more... practical ornamentation for Rhodes Island? Such as monastery brewing caskets, or...
Landen Monastery's clerics form no normal clergy, you know? Rather than prayer, we're much more about taking up arms to defend Laterano... That's how it goes, but our finances have been in a sorry state these past few years. The justice of guarding others with the faith we harbor—surely the Lord permits us that.
Doctor, do you have any interest in beer or bread? Landen Monastery Fermented Goods Contest CCCLXXVII first-place, at your service! No need? Ah, alright... Truly, I want our soft, springy bread and fragrant beer to be known across all of Terra. That would do wonders for our revenues!
E—Exusiai? *cough*! I never thought the legend who blew up her alma mater seventeen times in three years would be here at Rhodes Island... She does seem to have some learned business experts at her side, but the risk of an explosion while rebuilding the Monastery... best not for now.

Different kinds of arrows entail different uses. There may be plenty of capable archers amongst my sisters, but I don't boast when I proclaim that I'm the only one able to adapt multiple combat modes at once! Heheh! At least, out of my year I am!
Requires [ Elite 2 Lv. 1]
It was only once I left the Monastery that I realized my arrows may do more than defend the Apostle. It can aid so many Infected, beset by injustice... I'm very proud, but occasionally I'll remember the days gone past where I simply drew my bow, and loosed. Now, every arrow has become so much more weighty.

So as to rebuild the Monastery, my sisters have left to seek cooperation across all of Terra. *sigh*! Landen Monastery, age-old guard of Laterano, is now a dispatch agency... If only those old men would grant a little more funding. What kind of an excuse is 'teach with gift, not with gifts!?'
Requires [ Trust 100%]
Rhodes Island is a world apart from Laterano. All with a different scape in their hearts, mingling together. It truly is an extraordinary thing. Doctor, you must consider coming to the Monastery to teach after you retire. Issues of faith? That'll be no problem! None of us will mind.

At the start of spring, we'll prune the overgrown vines, and then open up the cellar come evening and retrieve the wine. The moment the setting sun catches through our glasses, we'll down them in one gulp. Ceremony? No, it's just a custom of ours. Life and faith became one long ago, and we don't want to lose it, that's all.
I feel like I heard bells... mm, just my imagination.
Cleric of Landen Monastery, Operator Archetto. Today on, I'll be in formal cooperation with you, for the rebuilding of the Landen Monastery famed far and wide! Doctor, if you would, please look over these contract terms!
I see, I see, so this is how Rhodes Island's operators fight! Truly, they're exemplary!
Requires [ Elite 1 Lv. 1]
A promotion? My greatest thanks. Hm? I seem at peace? Of course. When you spend five years partaking in commendation ceremonies for outstanding clerics where everyone sleeps the whole way through from hangover, these things don't get to you much.
Requires [ Elite 2 Lv. 1]
Another promotion? Hmm... all the companies outside seem to strongly emphasize a hierarchical structure. Well, seeing as my promotion's been set in stone, does that mean Rhodes Island is willing to agree and sign to long-term cooperative terms with our Monastery?
May Rhodes Island see for itself the distinguished tactical accomplishments of Landen Monastery.
Cooperating with my Sisters, everyone always drowned each other out... but under my command, things may be a little terser. I'll do my utmost.
Arrow nocked.
Enemy sighted.
Your orders.
What arrow should I use?
I've found our prey.
May the Lord bless us.
Draw. Take aim. Loose.
Feel the bowstring's shake...
Gospel, gather at my fingertips...
My bow has three choices, and the enemy three hardships.
'Long may the Monastery's bells sound.' This is a prayer for victory. Though we've already won!
Right! I joined in this battle. Now nobody will think Landen Monastery's just an ornament of Laterano, will they?
...Please allow me the chance to remedy this! This is my mistake, and in no way represents the Monastery!
Were battles beyond the walls... always so cruel?
It's too stifling in here. There's near to none of the Monastery's sunshine!
Oh—is something wrong?
Ah, Doctor, I've been thinking whether I should invite you with me to come see Laterano. Perhaps you'd have more interest in the Monastery then...
Arknights.
May the Lord bless you, Doctor.

Publicity campaigns always need a representative, and for the sake of maintaining appearances, they will always be shackled to their obligations.

Whether it was learning archery from her father or combat skills in the monastery, Archetto would always hold herself to a high standard to hunt more animals and uphold the monastery's reputation. When she left the monastery and saw just how vast the land truly was, Archetto realized how much more significance her arrows could carry. Draw the bow, use all your strength, and after taking aim at the target, raise the arrow in your hand a little higher and it will fly even further.
