Executor, professional statutory executor of the Laterano Notarial Hall, is entitled to the privileges listed in Clauses 1 through 13 of the Laterano Constitution and has been personally granted the title of 'Saint' by the current Lateran Pope Yvangelista XI. Laterano has not placed any restrictions on Rhodes Island's contact with this Saint, and the rapport between us and the Notarial Hall continues to grow. He continues to provide services to Rhodes Island in accordance with his contract, while performing tasks pertaining to the rights of Lateran citizens.

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, the operator is believed to be uninfected. [Cell-Originium Assimilation] 0% Operator Executor shows no signs of Originium infection. [Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.14u/L Blood Originium-Crystal Density has increased slightly, and though not yet at a dangerous level, it requires closer attention. So, how do I put this... has there been a recent upward trend in the density of his interpersonal interactions? Has anyone looked into this? —Medic Operator T.O.

Despite being granted the title of Saint, Operator Executor is still affiliated with the Laterano Notarial Hall. As such, the Notarial Hall still has the right to issue him tasks. In this sense, the additional title does not seem to have any particular impact on the normal course of his work. Upon his return to Rhodes Island, his outward appearance had certainly changed from before, if nothing else. Based on his own explanation, as well as corroborating accounts from a number of excited operators, we learned that the entire outfit he now wears was provided by the Lateran Curia, carefully tailored from completely different materials than ordinary clothing. It emphasizes not only aesthetics and comfort, but also practicality. With Executor's permission, we carried out a number of tests on his garb, which demonstrated that it boasts features such as impact and puncture resistance, and even a certain degree of anti-riot protection. The two guns he carries have also attracted the attention of some Sankta operators. While dual wielding, his combat style is more aggressive than before, and his methods of attack more diverse. 'During the last mission, Federico used his stock to knock out every enemy who got close to him,' commented Operator Spuria. 'His fighting style has nothing to do with how many guns you cram into his hands. Even with just a stick, or barehanded, that guy'll get the job done. 'Huh? You wanna know why they went through all that effort to give him a makeover? 'Because everyone thought it'd be badass, duh!' [Engineering Department Classified Log] Regarding the mechanical object that always follows Operator Executor, at first I thought it was some unique type of drone. However, while going over recordings of his battles, I saw it in action. The number of functions it has... far surpasses that of an ordinary auxiliary drone. But it seems that even he himself doesn't know much about it, claiming that it was handed to him directly by His Holiness the Pope. What IS the secret behind this tiny little thing? It's really gnawing away at me, and I sure wish I had the chance to take it apart and see what makes it tick...

'He asks more questions now.' This is a sentiment shared by every Rhodes Island operator of late. Indeed, some of the recent changes exhibited by Operator Executor are obvious to all — but by no means does this imply that he now wears his heart on his sleeve. Not at all. If someone who normally scores a 90 on exams got an extra point one day, nobody would bat an eye. However, if someone who only ever turns in blank exams suddenly started filling in the answers... Of course that would turn some heads. The situation with Executor is similar. Several operators who've had contact with him have mentioned that he has begun to ask them questions in casual settings. 'He asked why I didn't just kidnap the client right back...' 'Haha, he let you off easy. He asked ME why I didn't just blow up the whole building to prevent the target from escaping...' '...So what'd you tell him?' 'What else? The truth. Putting on a fireworks show might seem like the most straightforward option in the moment, but the cleanup afterwards would be an absolute nightmare!' 'Did he listen?' 'Seems like it. So what'd you answer?' 'Uhh, about the same. Abducting the guy would've been faster, but dealing with the fallout would've been too much of a headache.' 'As for Executor... He said that while he doesn't quite understand, after giving it some thought, he agreed that our way is more sensible and efficient.' These unusual changes in Executor have attracted the attention of many. Based on the recent feedback we've received, we can surmise that he is trying to take more factors into account when determining what the most logical course of action is. Moreover, he's already putting this into practice, regularly attempting to complete tasks in a better and more reasonable manner. 'It's like he just got patched with a new algorithm. It's better than before, but still spits out some weird results from time to time.' 'Are you talking about when he went to console the target after defeating a group of bandits, just like you suggested, except he was completely covered in blood so he scared them half to death with his emotionless face?' [Medical Department Work Log] We've received feedback from a number of our personnel that Executor seems to believe he is suffering from some kind of disease, manifesting as the sporadic prioritization of certain actions, some of which he finds perplexing. As a result, he has been going to Medical for regular physical examinations at an unnecessarily high frequency. 'It's good to want to stay on top of your health. Not saying it isn't.' A member of Medical complained to us with an air of resignation. 'But there's nothing wrong with him, seriously. Except mentally.' As an aside: Some members of Medical actually welcome Operator Executor's behavior, and are discussing using his case as an example to those patients who really need checkups but refuse to show up.

[Fifth Tribunal Internal Conversation Log 1] Federico makes for an excellent executor. I can attest to that. Although it is unclear why His Holiness bestowed him the title of Saint at such a sensitive juncture, I do believe that if anyone can shoulder the Pope's expectations, it is that exceptional young man. His background? Of course there's nothing problematic. As I recall, his parents were also affiliated with the Fifth Tribunal... Hold on, I'll go pull up their records. Ah, here we are, Mr. and Mrs. Giallo. Both were statutory executors with the Notarial Hall, both very capable. Unfortunately, they passed away during a mission fifteen years ago. Federico would only have been about ten years old at the time? Poor child... So, what made you suddenly decide to look into him? The whole 'Saint' thing? ...It's about Arturia Giallo? ...First, let me make this abundantly clear: Federico's files were strictly reviewed at the time of his onboarding, and there were no issues. Keep that in mind, as it will be the premise for the rest of our conversation. Arturia Giallo. Her father and Federico's father were cousins, as is unambiguously stated in the documents; there's nothing to hide. After the death of the Giallos in the line of duty, Federico stayed at his cousin's household for a period of... about two or three years, after which entered middle school and began living on campus. Incidentally, when Arturia's crimes first came to light seven years ago, forcing her to leave Laterano, it was Federico, then a newcomer, who pieced together the relevant clues. Since then, he's made efforts to raise the priority of the mission to bring her into custody. I'd imagine that a young man's first case must have special significance to him. No, I don't think there's anything problematic about that. We carried out a detailed investigation when Arturia first became a wanted fugitive. As far as I know, Federico and Arturia were never in close contact, and there is no reason to believe it would affect his work — his day-to-day performance speaks for itself. [Fifth Tribunal Internal Conversation Log 2] Arturia stayed at Sanctilaminium Ambrosii for a week, after which we decided that she would go to Leithanien; the relevant investigation reports have been sent to the Notarial Hall. His Holiness has other plans for follow-up investigations and related matters, which I cannot disclose in advance. A sister? From a biological perspective, Arturia is only my distant relative, and I have no need for such informal relationships. A meaningless question.

When we use the term 'Saint,' it may evoke images of the Saints of the Iberian Inquisition. Though the term was originally borrowed from the Lateran faith, the concept has been fully absorbed by Iberia, is iconic to its people, and has taken on its own unique cultural expression. For the Laterans, however, 'Saint' is not just a title to be thrown around haphazardly. In all the classics relating to Lateran history, there are records of the first generation of Saints erecting stone towers and building the Holy City. The first group of Sanktas led everyone to lay the foundations for Laterano, and only after generations of hard work did they create a peace to continue for thousands of years. Only then did we finally have a society elevated above the flames of war — harmonious Laterano. With the exception of the first group of sages who established the city-state, only the Pope is ever bestowed the title of Saint, during their term in office. This is not only a great honor, but also represents the weighty responsibility to lead the Sankta, as well as all of Laterano. For thousands of years, this title has without exception been passed down from generation to generation through the Pope — until this millennia old tradition was broken by the decision of Yvangelista XI. Federico Giallo became the first non-Papal canonization in thousands of years. Why would the Pope make such an unprecedented decision? There is no doubt that Executor is excellent at his job, but Laterano has no shortage of combatants who are braver or more skilled than he, and no shortage of devotees more faithful. There also a litany of other prestigious figures, so everyone had the same question: why Federico? Why 'Saint?' His undeniably excellent performance aside, the situation seems somewhat less shocking thanks to his detached attitude and the unique circumstances surrounding Laterano, but without a doubt, the decision made by His Holiness goes completely against common sense and warrants astonishment. Why did the sitting Pope, in all his wisdom, make this decision, and what signal is he sending? Operator Executor told us that the Pope informed him that a disaster would befall this land, but what sort of disaster would force Laterano, a city that has been peaceful for thousands of years, to take such urgent measures? Federico Giallo was his first appointment, but what comes next? Will we also see Laterano appoint a second or third unconventional Saint? Dr. Kal'tsit seems to be very concerned by the news coming from Operator Executor and Laterano. I think... it may be prudent to start preparing in advance. [Excerpt from Kal'tsit's Personal Records] There is no doubt in my mind that His Holiness has issued us a warning. Calamity is coming, and Laterano will not be able to survive alone. It may even be the case that... the calamity will destroy Laterano first. This so-called 'canonization' is undoubtedly the countermeasure chosen by Yvangelista XI. A 'Saint'... One who guides all Laterans, is it? Then there cannot be only one such person. Perhaps we will soon see more of these unconventional cases, more non-standard Lateran Saints. They will become Laterano's cornerstones, a sign of hope amidst the coming calamity, the symbols of another way forward for the Sankta. As for this calamity... I still can't give a definitive answer, but things are becoming clearer and clearer within my mind. There are too many signs, too many omens. It is coming, and soon.

Executor often finds himself lost in thought. After his mission at Sanctilaminium Ambrosii, he often finds himself at an impasse, and he believes that he has encountered his most difficult situation yet. Letting emotions affect his actions is something he cannot understand. The rationality of his behavior troubles him. He has yet to reach his own conclusive understanding. But he still knows exactly what he must do — complete his job faithfully, just as always. If you run into a problem, try to solve it. If you have any doubts, ask someone for help. [Conversation Record] 'I saw Executor the other day... Yeah, THAT Executor.' 'Oh, I know. The guy your entire dorm was chasing after at one point, right?' 'We put that behind us a long time ago! But you know what I saw? I saw him lost in thought in front of a flower...' '...Someone's trying to get a head start again?' 'No! That's not the issue! He had this serious look on his face, as if he was grappling with something difficult! I didn't even have the guts to say hi!' 'Oh... Yeah, I think I get it...' 'Get what?' 'Calm down for a sec and think about this rationally. What in the world could make a guy like that lost in thought? It's not normal.' 'H-Huh?' 'Were you sure he was holding flowers? Not some kind of explosive device or other weapon shaped like one? If it looks like a flower, it could be some new kind of landmine, right?' 'When you put it that way, that does seem pretty plausible...' 'Now you get it. Flower or not, that thing has gotta have thorns.' 'That does make sense... And I did see him handing it to the Doctor later. Say, do you think it has something to do with a secret mission?'

During combat, Executor has always had a knack for rapidly evaluating the enemy's status, upon which he can draw up an agile and effective tactical formation for his team. For any given assignment, he'll assume the duties of recon, engagement, skirmishing, breakthrough, impedance, and infiltration... We gather you're asking what everyone else does? Well, support, presumably. If it's ever necessary.
