(1) "Yeah yeah." -> "Yes yes." (This is an issue to do with Louise's manner of speech, which I have raised in the "Unified Guidelines"... and concluded that it wasn't really necessary...)

(2) "The task of protecting them from all and any enemies is a duty of the highest priority! But that might be a little bit problematic for you..." -> "The task of protecting them from each and every enemy is a duty of supreme priority! But that might be a little precarious for you..."

(The word precarious covers the definition of problematic as well as indicates that it would be dangerous.)

:This is in regard to Da~Mike's (2)

:The "precarious" part seems more about Louise being pissed that her familiar is so helpless and uncool, not on her being worried about her familiar being in danger because he might not be up to the task. Yeah, up to this point, she's a typical princess type, except for the bad magic thing, which by itself, propels her quite a few steps up the ladder of moe.

:I went ahead and changed it back to what was there before, on the reasoning that while part of that bit of dialogue is probably Louise repeating something almost verbatim that she's been lectured on, that she would still be more likely to render it in "high class", or "lofty and eloquent" American speech. I feel the key words she repeats verbatim are "task", "protecting", "enemies", "duty", "priority" -- any exact speech mannerisms would most likely have been lost, since I'm imagining she only heard this type of thing once or twice as they got to the part of class pertaining to familiars.
