** Although interestingly this is briefly called into question in the second episode of the show where Roman Given tries to bribe Bern into taking his forces and joining his side instead. Bern demands a high price, but seems to geniunely be considering it before he finds out that their conversation was being recorded and Roman was going to instead to try to blackmail him by threatning to play his words to Drake.

After Show hands him multiple defeats he grows to respect him and holds him in high regard, as well as bonding with Garalia after realising they're NotSoDifferent to which they join together and fight Show as a pair for a while.

** Although it's implied several people on his own side including Drake himself (who calls out the similiarity of Black Knight swearing his loyalty to Bern giving an almost identical speech earlier in the show but says he won't ask of Black Knights past out of respect) know full well who it is but for honors sake allow him to pretend to be a different person to distance himself from Bern's failures.

Even when becoming a pilot himself, he favors taking older generations of Aura Battlers and making adjustments to allow them to compete with later models whilst saving resources to gradually complete his ultimate creation - the Galava.
