| *'''Lu''': ''Explain yourself! What do you mean we can't use this fragment?''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''Let me try explaining this again. This fragment no longer holds the power of the El or the Dark El. There's no question that this fragment holds great power, but using a fragment that swirls with mixed energy is a recipe for disaster. With this particular fragment being from a mutated interdimensional being, the dangers are likely twofold.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''No...... But you are right. With this many people going through the portal, we'll have to find the safest way possible.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''It's too early to give up. We will find a way.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''I'm getting the impression, that even with a proper medium, we will still get an unstable portal with your inexperienced magic.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''No need to be rude! Of course a mighty demon noble such as I, will find no use in petty skills like magic!''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Did you just call magic petty?! Are you saying...!''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Haha, calm down everyone. I believe Mr. Ancient had something else to say.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Yes, and I'll specifically let you in on my perfectly contrived plan.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Bah, I reckon it's worthless.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Let's give him a chance, Lu. You are a benevolent ruler after all.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Hm, if you say so Ciel. Alright, let us hear that plan of yours.''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''... Amazing. That was a flawless persuasion technique. I should attempt to learn this skill as well. It seems like a useful technique to have as a ruler.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Hm? Did you say something?''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Ahahaha she said let's go~! Come now, let's get moving Eve. You too, Aisha! Stop pouting, I'm sure Lu didn't mean anything by it.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''I, I'm no pouting..!''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Kuhahaha! Too slow! You won't be able to catch up to me with that speed!''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Grr... How dare you! Get off that strange contraption this instance!''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''...... Ah... Another lively day it seems...''

| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Is this portal device part of your 'Perfect Plan'?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Of course. This device used to be connected to the Heart of Henir. So all we need to do, is use this device to open a new portal to the Demon Realm.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Amazing! So what now?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Since the device is in good condition, we just need to enter the new coordinates and...''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Coordinates?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Do you know the coordinates to the Demon Realm, Add?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''.........''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''My, looks like this one is a dud as well.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Hohoho! Sounds like your plan isn't quite 'perfect' after all!''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''It's no use squabbling amongst ourselves! Since all our ideas failed, we should think of another way.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''You are right of course. We are in quite a predicament...''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Kya!! You scared me... How long were you standing there!?''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''Haha, I didn't know you were so easily surprised, Aisha.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''It's no my fault she goes around without making a sound...''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Wait, isn't Rose from another world? Rose, how did you come to Elrios?''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''A scientist obsessed with Elrios created a special portal. Zero acted as my guide.''
| |
| *'''Zero''': ''Hey, you call that an explanation? You didn't say anything about how much of a marvel I am with your Weapon conversion program and extensive knowledge on Elrios! Ahem! I am an AI of unparalleled brilliance using the El as my power source!''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Ah, so you have El energy inside your body? Hm... Come to think about it, the poewr of El is essential to making a sophisticated intelligent being.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''You know a lot about the El!''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Haha. Well, I am a priest. Anyway, you must have had a difficult time in the Hall of El if you use the El as your power source.''
| |
| *'''Zero''': ''Ahem, with a mind as brilliant as mine, nothing is considered a difficulty! Or... Something like that. Ha, haha...''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''It's harder to go to the Demon Realm than I thought. With demons popping up all over Elrios, I thought it would be just as easy for us to go...''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Hm... Demons at Velder used the Earth El to come over.''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''It may be off topic, but Adrian also used El energy to move to Elysion.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Wait, El energy... Time and Space... Demon Invasion... Perhaps...''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''... it. Shatter it. Only then... Could it be...?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Hm? Lu? What's wrong?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Everyone, come here, we have a lead.''

| *'''Elsword''': ''Denif!''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Good gracious! If you're looking for the old man, you just missed him. He went for a walk, you see.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Alright. But we've got something urgent to say. The priestesses should join us as well.''
| |
| *'''Artea''': ''Of course.''
| |
| ----
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Could you repeat what you said earlier, Nasod Queen?''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''... Adrian moved to Elysion using El energy. Did I say something significant?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Hm... It looks like El energy is necessary to warp between different dimensions.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Well, all energy is Elrios is based on the El. What we magicians call mana or magic, in the end originates from the El as well. So really, there isn't any other way other than using the power of El, right?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''At first, I thought that was the reason as well. But then, something doesn't add up. For example, the demon invasion in Velder.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''You mean where the demons opened a portal using the Earth El?''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Yes, that's rather strange. It's likely they didn't use the Dark El, since even Lu, as a demon ruler, never actually saw it. But the Demon Realm doesn't have the El. So El energy was not readily available for them, yet the demons went out of their way to use the Earth El.''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''The Earth El could have been the most powerful energy source they could find. With something as powerful as the Earth El, the demons could also afford to... experiment.''
| |
| *'''Artea''': ''... Perhaps Velder was merely an important strategic point with it housing the Earth El.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''But Add couldn't use the portal device earlier because he didn't know the exact coordinates to the Demon Realm. It couldn't have been easy for demons to know the coordinates of the Earth El either. There must be a special reason they used the Earth El despite all these inconveniences. Wait, could it be... the El itself...''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''But the biggest hint was the fact that the El also appeared in that blondie's world.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''Mine? I've never heard any reports of... Oh, I see!''
| |
| *'''Zero''': ''Hm? Wha, what! What are you guys staring at me for?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''That chunk of metal is proof. He said so himself, using the El as the power source, but created in a different dimension.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''Indeed. Where I come from, Elrios is so far away that you can't view it with any ordinary observation device.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''(It's probably somewhere outside the realm of influence of the El. A world not touched by the goddess... I should make note of it.)''
| |
| *'''Sasha''': ''If it reached out that far... It's likely a shard from the Great Explosion.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Anyway considering all these instances, I believe the El itself has the power to influence the connection between dimensions and Time and Space.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''You mean the El has the power to connect worlds and dimensions?''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''It may be so... But if the El connects between worlds, why is Elrios severed from the Demon Realm? It's not easy to go to different dimensions like Elysion either.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Heh, looks like you and I are finally on the same page.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''... a blocking ability...''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Hm? Lu, could you repeat that?''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''I said the El must have the ability to interfere with the connection between worlds to block outer forces from entering Elrios. And that outer force that the El blocks... it probably the 'Demon Realm'.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Why do you say that?''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''When I was very young, I've heard an old nursery rhyme. "Apostles Bound, heed my words. A blue piercing light blinds your sight. The Reflection of creation, blocks your path. Reject it. Break it. To set things right."''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Oh... That's the poem you sometimes mumble if your sleep.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Oh?! I never realized. Anyways, I always thought this was rather bleak and difficult for a nursery rhyme.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''You think the one that "blocks your path" is the El?''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Yes. I used to think it was just a meaningless old nursery rhyme, but Add's speculations seem to fit quite well with the words.''
| |
| *'''Gloria''': ''Ah, so people have been creating portal devices using the El's special power to connect worlds, without understanding why the El had the power to do so.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''Perhaps this... power of El formed because of human ambition. Is it possible for humans to have altered the El to fulfill their ambition of interfering with different worlds?''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Altering the El is not possible. The essential properties of the El was chosen by the Goddess. It is not something a human can alter.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Then...''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''The Goddess created the El to prevent a demon invasion.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''If our predictions are correct, that is.''
| |
| ----
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''... So you want to investigate beneath the El Tower?''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Of course! The giant hole beneath the El is nothing if not suspicious! Haven't you ever wondered what's down there?''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''No, in fact, I haven't.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''Um... I, uh, actually I've already been...''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''I don't think I heard that right. Did you say you've already went down below?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Well... I accidentally tripped and fell down the hole...''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Don't worry! No one was hurt!''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''I can't believe this...! Sigh...''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''It was certainly not designed for easy maneuvering. There were no signs of stairs or other methods of climbing.''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''But we saw an elaborate seal at the bottom.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Since we've already checked there aren't any traps or anything, we can investigate properly this time.... How about it?''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''... Alright. However the moment we sense any danger, is the moment we will all retreat.''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Sure, sure~ Everyone ready?''
| |
| *'''Anduran''': ''Let's go!''
| |
| *'''Ignia''': ''Huhu, how exciting! Just like an adventure~''

| *'''Ara''': ''I didn't realize how deep it was last time I fell. How much longer until we reach the bottom?''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Be careful. Aisha and I are trying our best to slow your descent, but we may all still end up falling in the end.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Yes! We will be careful!''
| |

| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Ooof, sorry...''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Hahaha, no harm done.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''(Now that we're close, I can definitely sense it. This seal was created by the Goddess.)''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''Ventus, why did you think this was a seal?''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''That's because I felt a faint presence of the Demon Realm on the other side.''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''Presence... of the Demon Realm?''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Yes. I don't know exactly where, but I definitely feel the distinct aura of the Demon Realm. If this is connected to the Demon Realm, it explains the need for a seal.''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''... This structure strongly resembles ancient seals. The ancient seal structure likely derived from this seal.........''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Denif?''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''As far as I'm aware, we cannot destroy this seal. Rather, we mustn't destroy it.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''But this could be the only way to the Demon Realm.''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''... Yes. So what we should do is use some kind of... A trick. We'll use a spell to interfere with the flow of magic as its weakest point. Doing so will create a small gap that will allow you to pass through. It will use a great deal of mana, so I would need all the priestesses and Ventus to help.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Then I should also..!''
| |
| *'''Denif''': ''We don't know what's on the other side, so it's best for you to save your strengths.''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''What would you do? This will lead you to the Demon Realm. Anything can happen from now.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''... I want to follow. I mean, please let me follow you to the Demon Realm! I began my journey to prevent a great calamity fro approaching. I believe the answer will be at the end of your path. I will do my best to aid in your journey.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Hmph. Gotta admit we wouldn't have found this place if it weren't for this lump of metal... It seems to have its uses.''
| |
| *'''Zero''': ''Mwahaha! At least somebody appreciates my glorious presence!''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''... Please don't compliment him. He's heavy as is without a big head.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''Haha...''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''We appreciate your help. I trust you'll be impartial as only someone from outside of Elrios and the Demon Realm could be. Glad to have you. It's always good to have more people on the same side.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''Thank you, I will do my best.''

| |
| *'''Anduran''': ''Ready!''

| *'''Chung''': ''She just blocked Rena's arrow with one hand...!''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Haha, I think we can relax. It doesn't look like she wants to fight.''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Huhu... My name is Edith, I am the village elder, the leader of this village. Because of our location being surrounded by the forest, we have developed out own language. I have one question for you. Why did you think we would understand Ancient Elven?</font>''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''<font color=#2EE400>My village Elder used to teach me the history of the Elves. That's when she told me... That Dark Elves and Elrios Elves derived from the same roots.</font>''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>... I see. So you don't believe we are the 'Cursed Elves'?</font>''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''<font color=#2EE400>That... That is...</font>''
| |

| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Ah, I apologize if I made you unconfortable with this question. I was merely curious. This is something others should understand as well. Chloe, if you would?</font>''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''As you know, Dark Elves and Elves from Elrios share the same ancestors. Which means Dark Elves used to dwell in Elrios as well.''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Why did you come here then? It couldn't have been easy to move away from the spirits and the El in Elrios.''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''The ancestors of Dark Elves used to dwell in the Obsidian Forest, an area with the strongest demonic energy in Elrios. Their bodies, exposed to the demonic energy, adapted, and began utilizing the demonic energy that surrounded them. The other Elves, who could no accept the use of demonic energy, shunned them, called them the 'Cursed Ones'.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''... That's why they had to leave.''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''It's still a mystery how they ended up in the Demon Realm though.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''I read an ancient tome in Velder that said, 'Dark Elves live in the Dark Continent.' Does that mean we're in the Dark Continent right now? Or was the tome incorrect?''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''Do I look like your teacher?''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''... Fine. This is the Dark Continent. It's the edge of the Demon Realm, with guardians protecting the forest forever dark as night. But that is a name given by outsiders. We Dark Elves call this place, Varnimyr.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''I see...''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''<font color=#D600FF>... I have no time for idle chitchat with outsiders. I came to warn the village of what's happening.</font>''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#D600FF>A warning, you say?</font>''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''<font color=#D600FF>The Demon Army is in complete disarray. With several commanders defeated in Elrios, the spots left empty are being fought over by those who are hungry for power. I left before I got caught in the mess, but they probably noticed I'm gone by now. This place is no longer safe. We need to leave now.</font>''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Hey, what are you guys talking about? Is it serious? Can we help?''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''... I'm still in your debt. If we can help in any way, I want you to tell us.''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''......''
| |
| ----
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''So, to get this straight, Chloe joined the demon army so they didn't disturb the village.''
| |
| *'''Rose''': ''But she left to avoid being swept in the current conflict; which leaves the village in danger as it's a breach in contract.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''So it's all your fault. In the end, it's because you were not confident enough in your abilities to deal with those coming for your throat.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''A, Add!''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''You're right. It's because I'm no strong enough.... But that's why I'm here. I could no let my weakness be the downfall of this village.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Anyway, sis. What do you mean you're in her debt?''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Haha, it's a long story that happened long ago. How about I tell you next time?''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>So you've come here to find information on the Dark El and find your missing family members.</font>''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Yes, do you know anything?</font>''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>The spirits would know about the Dark El in detail. We will need their help as well, in order to prepare for what Chloe has warned us about. You wish to help us? Then how about you escort elves that will be meeting with the spirits. They've been carefully selected and will be able to communicate with you smoothly. What do you think? I believe it will be beneficial for the both of us.</font>''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Please let us discuss amongst ourselves.</font> ...... So what do you think about this offer?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''I think we should do it. We will be able to help the Dark Elves while still receiving the information we need. It will be killing two birds with one stone.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''It's not a bad idea. I'm sure spirits will know many things that are no privy to us.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''I agree as well. It will be good for us to make allies we can trust.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''So there are other people that live in the Demon Realm other than demons. It's rather surprising.''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Have you decided?</font>''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Yes, we accept your offer. However, we are all exhausted from the constant battles. We would like some place to rest before we are needed.</font>''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Huhu, that will be no problem at all. You will be heading towards Spirit Asylum, where our patron deity Nephilim Lord dwells. Normally, we would alert him of our visits... But I have not been able to communicate with him.</font>''
| |
| *'''Chloe''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Maybe you're just losing touch.</font>''
| |
| *'''Edith''': ''<font color=#2EE400>Huhuhu... That may be, but you can never be too careful.</font>''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''... We're done for now, right? Can we go rest?''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Haha, yes. We should rest up.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Yes! Ciel! Let's have some tea!''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Alright, I have the perfect tea set.''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''You mean they were not damaged during battle?''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Um... Ain...''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Yes, Elsword?''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''......''
| |

| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''... Never mind. It's nothing. I'm sorry to bother you.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''No need to apologize. When you're ready to talk, I'll still be listening.''

| ----
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''... 'It' appeared around 500 years ago by mortal standards. I didn't pay any attention to it, because it didn't do anything. But recently, it began to emit an aura unfamiliar to me.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''An unfamiliar aura?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''Yes. I am the first Nephilim. The most ancient among the spirits that dwell in this asylum. But even I have never felt such an aura before. It was faint, but I felt anger within its being. A violent wish to burn and destroy all things...... I did my best to protect the asylum, but it seems I have succumbed to it first.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Why did you succumb to it first? I thought you were the strongest spirit in this place.''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''You are daring, to demand your answers from me. I am what links all spirits into one. All the spirits here, their memories, knowledge, even their abilities all come back to me. As such, when the spirits were affected by the aura, all their afflictions accumulated within me... And so I have lost control.''
| |
| *'''Dark Elf''': ''<font color=#D600FF>You are not at fault Noble Protector...! It was our duty as the Black Guardians to notice anything that's gone amiss!</font>''
| |

| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Tell us about 'It' that appeared 500 years ago. That's what caused all this, right?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''... Ah, I remember you. You are the boy in my memory.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Wait... Were you the Dark Nephilim we fought at Southern Gate in Velder?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''Perhaps it was, perhaps it wasn't.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Um... What do you mean?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''It's impossible for someone inexperienced to summon me in entirety. To resolve this, they brought an artificial source of mana. But my power is not to be contained by such inferior device. The being that was summoned there, is weaker than the youngest Nephilim here.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''(And we struggled really hard trying to stop it...''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''(Yeah, if we can, we should avoid fighting with Nephilim Lord again.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''And because it was a summon, albeit an incomplete one, you still have its memories?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''Yes.... But as I was saying... Red Boy, you ask of 'It' that appeared 500 years ago? It is shaped like a tower. But it is not a true contruction. It rejects entry of other beings like it's alive. It never disturbed us. As long as nobody attempted to enter it, nothing changed.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Until now when its strange aura caused everyone to go berserk...''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Do you remember exactly when you started sensing this aura?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''Hm... I cannot be certain, but its only been a few months. But you're an adventurer from a different realm with no concern for ours. What is it that you wish to ask of me?''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''You are right. As expected of the Great Deity.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''We need to find the Dark El. There's a suspicious group called Henir's Order trying to get a hold of it.''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''And how do I know you're any different from this... group?''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''I can't believe how obstinate you are being! Did you forget that we helped you come to your senses?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''... There's always those who seek the power of the Dark El. I have never encountered any who claimed themselves to be of Henir's Order. But perhaps they were among many I've met.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''What do we need to do to prove ourselves?''
| |
| *'''Nephilim Lord''': ''Hm... Perhaps you should eliminate the source of the aura that disturbed this place in my stead. Once the source is eliminated and the asylum at peace, I will accept you have integrity, and provide you the information you need.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Sigh... Seems like we're running errands for anyone these days.''

| *'''Elsword''': ''The Dark El must be important to the spirits here. I understand why we would need to earn their trust. And if the aura was strong enough to put Nephilim Lord under its influence, then we should probably check to make sure it doesn't come in our way.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Yes, yes, of course. It's just as you say. And I'm not so heartless that I'd ignore the situation they are in.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Huhu...''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''... Why are you looking at me like that. You're treating me like a child again, aren't you Ciel. Ahem!''
| |

| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Anyway, Eve, what were you going to say earlier?''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Earlier? Ah, you mean before we fell. The golem we fought had some demonic energy due to the rocks and ore being from the Demon Realm... But unlike the exterior, it looked like the core had little to do with demonic energy.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''You're right... It almost felt like... Fire.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Fire?''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Yes. Just like Eve said, the golems, the scythe, they both didn't feel like they were made of demonic energy.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Yeah, almost like fighting against a raging fire.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Well Elsword kept saying it felt like Lanox around here. Maybe it's because these things are made of fire?''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Hm... But why would a place in the Demon Realm have fire energy similar to the one in Lanox? After all, it's not like another Fire El is housed here.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Hm...''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Mmmm...''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''This would have been easier to figure out if Denif or Ignia were here...''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Either way, we should rest here and go after the scythe. I don't like how it went straight towards the tower.''

| |
| *'''Eve''': ''But the enemies we've fought so far barely had any demonic energy. Of course, we have yet to encounter what's in the tower... If whoever is in the tower was controlling the monsters outside, the prisoner is either a demon who didn't use any demonic energy, or someone completely unrelated.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''A demon that can summon a monster that powerful without having to use their main power? That's disconcerting.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''We don't know anything about this tower or the potential enemies within it. Whatever we encounter, the only thing we can do is fight to our best abilities.''

| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''As you all know, this tower was near indestructible.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''True, it's still standing tall after that battle we had, after all.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Yes, it was. The keyword being 'was'.''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''I see, the tower is no longer the same as it was. The outer walls are of much lower density.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''You mean it's weaker?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Yes, we don't exactly know why, but when we defeated that monster, the outer walls also became weaker. As if the sole purpose of the walls were to keep the monsters away.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''You mean the monster from earlier was actually trying to break into the tower?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''I can't say for sure, but I have my suspicion. It was too violent to be a guardian of the tower. It was acting like it wanted to destroy everything.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''You're right. The monster never really acted like it was trying to protect the tower.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Whatever the case may be, the important part is that the walls are now weaker, and we've found one side of the wall with a huge openi...''

| |
| *'''Eve''': ''It is an interesting theory. If it weren't for something happening to Elsword, I would have thought it was a wild one.''
| |

| |
| *'''Ain''': ''... At the very least, the person connected to the tower is also closely connected to the El.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''I'm surprised. I didn't think you wanted anything in the Demon Realm to be connected to the El.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Of course I don't want them to be connected. But there's no reason to ignore what's in front of us. Isn't that right, Mr. Half-Demon who is even more suspicious than his master?''

| |

| |
| *'''Rena''': ''An eye of a giant creature? Whatever it is, it's disturbing.''
| |

| |

| |
| *'''Raven''': ''So there's five enemies we have to take care of. Fighting in one group will only make it easier to target all of us.''
| |

| |

| |
| *'''Add''': ''Wait, what?!''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Master Ventus?!''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Phew, sorry I'm late. I did try my best to come here on time, but you know how it is! I thought I was going to die several times over! You sure know how to pick your adventures. Oh no no, you don't want to touch him right now. You'll just get brunt again!''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''How did you get here? Wait... Do you know this guy?''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Of course! We know each other very well!!''
| |
| *'''???''': ''... Shut up and help me up...''

| |

| |
| *'''Rosso''': ''... Rosso.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Huh?''
| |
| *'''Rosso''': ''... Since somebody persistently asked me my name... My name is Rosso. And I am... What they call the Fire Master.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Whaaaaat?!''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Fire Master?! I, uh, what are you doing in the Demon Realm?''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''... Now I see why Elsword and Ain thought this place was similar to Lanox.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''So the energy from the golem and the scythe must have been the energy of the Fire El...! Why didn't we think of this before? It has such a distinct feeling.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''What is the Fire Master doing here in the Demon Realm? Surrounded by demonic energy for that matter.''
| |
| *'''Rosso''': ''... What makes you think I would answer your question?''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''What? You little...!''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Now, now, I'm sure you're just dying to hear his answer, but as you can see, our friend over here is a little worse for wear. If it's alright with all of you, I'd like to take him to heal his injuries. You understand, don't you?''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''(Ahaha... He just smoothly avoided having to answer Add's question...)''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Anyway, how did you end up all the way here, Master Ventus?''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Oh, I almost forgot! Here you go, Rena.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''This is...?''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Well, you need a way back to Elrios, don't you?''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Wait...!''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''I can't believe we forgot something so essential...''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Huh? Can't we just go back the way we came from?''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''When we entered Henir's Realm, the masters and priestesses opened a way for us, but when we go back, we have no way to communicate we're just beyond the barrier.''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Haha, that's why I brought this Wind Spirit Stone. I can roughly tell where you are as long as you hold onto it. If you make it just across the barrier beneath the El Tower, we'll open the path again.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''So you've come all the way here to give us this stone?''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Well, yes. But it looks like I would be taking home something much bigger now. My, just like the good old days. Has it been 2 years already? You look exactly the same as the last time I saw you!''
| |
| *'''Rosso''': ''... You idiot. Of course it's been more than just 2 years. No sense of time what so ever. Ugh...''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''Hahaha! Who cares about the details! You should stop your nagging and rest. Now then, what do you want to do? Shall we go back together?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Thanks you for the offer, but we have somewhere to go to learn about the location of the Dark El.''
| |
| *'''Ventus''': ''You've already found a lead? Ama-zing! Then I, with Rosso here, will be waiting for you at Elrianode. See you later!''
| |
| *'''Rosso''': ''You there,''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Eh? M, me?''
| |
| *'''Rosso''': ''... Be on your guard. The Master of the Crimson Eye must be lurking about.''

| |

| |
| *'''Lu''': ''If everything's settled, let's go back to where the spirit is waiting for us.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''I hope he wasn't too startled with the tower collapsing all of a sudden.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''He should be grateful! After all, we not only solved the issue, but completely eliminated the source of the problem! Now, let's go.''

| *'''Eve''': ''Oh, I see. This energy stored within these gems are very unique.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Yes. I also sense it. This...''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''... Has a similar energy to the 'Real Dark El' that Hennon had. Though, it's very faint. Barely noticeable in comparison.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''In other words, this place is similar to the Richie Mines of Bethma. Looks like these gems store energy similarly to how the magic stones in Richie Mines stored El Energy.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Wow. This subtle coloring is very mystical and beautiful! When I visited the capital when I was little, I would go around looking at beautiful gems just like these.''

| |
| *'''Eve''': ''...? Why is this...?''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''What's going on, Eve?''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''I found something odd... But the Energy of the Dark El is too faint to examine more carefully. Can we get a gem that has more energy stored?''

| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Sit down everyone, this is going to be a long story.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''When did he take our weapons...!''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Where should I start... Oh yeah, how about the Dark El? The Dark El... is considered a legend, with lots of rumors surrounding it. You can obtain the greatest power! You will live eternal life! And all other absurdities. Many don't even believe that it exists. Barkat, the one currently leading the army... Actually, who cares what he thinks.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''Then, do you know the location of the Dark El?''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Ah, sorry, that- I don't know. So, actually, getting the spirits cooperation was a good idea on your part. Not that it would be easy getting what you want.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Are you saying the spirits deceived us?''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Ahaha! No, that's not it! You see, the spirits here, sense things differently from us. So they can't pinpoint the exact location of the Dark El.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''So even Nephilim Lord will not have the exact location of the Dark El.''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Exactly! They can sense the Dark El, but cannot provide you the location even if they wanted to. So the information, at best, would have been more like 'where the energy of the Dark El is the strongest.' ''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''How do we trust you?''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''If you're so skeptical, you can just ask Nephilim Lord! I bet one of the locations he'll list is this very vein, right here.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''You're so confident...''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Ah, there's one thing I forgot to mention. You see, that one eye that the red guy had, that's actually me eye.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''?!''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''I gave it up because I lost a bet long ago. I didn't expect to find it here in all places!''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''... When he said the master is 'close', I didn't expect he was hiding right under our noses...''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Anyways, thanks to that, I was able to see you fight in real time! It was a great show.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Don't look at me like that. I just watched. There's really no power left in this eye. I wish they didn't wring out everything they could before giving it back. Hm... But it makes me wonder... What does it feel like for a normal human from Elrios to receive demonic energy...''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''!''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''You won't belong anywhere, a poor creature all alone in this world... Even I don't want to feel like that.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''You dare...!''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Lu... A life dedicated to something, blood spilt to protect those that are truly important... I suspect you will never empathize with those feelings. I don't want to make you understand. This is how I live. I'm sure you have your own way. However... My life, my reason of existence is directly connected to Lu. If you insult me any more, I will take that as an insult to Lu, Red Demon King.''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''Hey, I was just curious. There's no need to get all serious about it. Gee, you look like you want to punch me.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''You think I won't? You must under some kind of delusion. The onloy thing that matters to me is keeping Lu safe. If you get in Lu's way, even if you're a comrade, I will take you down.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''...... Ciel.''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''... Is that so? Wanna bet, then? I love bets.''

| *'''Ciel''': ''You may think I'm selfish... But I meant every word I said. I... I don't think you are hindrances. But......... I always thought I will say this eventually. I always thought my conviction might cause an inconvenience to others.... In the end, my actions led to Chung's injury.... I'm sorry.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''Tsk, this is why 'comrade' means nothing. In the end, we're all just using each other, yet it gives us the delusion that we're all united under some great purpose.''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Add...!''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''There's no reason to feel guilt. If you act out of guilt, you think we'll appreciate it?''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''... I think it's great that you have something you wish to protect, even with your life. My father... Betrayed Hamel to protect me. With his sacrifice, I survived, and was able to come all the way here with you.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''So he says. Tsk, bunch of soft-hearted idiots.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''Hahaha...''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''I too... felt similar to how Ciel feels. As much as I cherish my brother, I also began to feel a connection with you. I was worried... That my actions would eventually harm all of you. But, everyone just accepted that I must continue to save my brother. That is when I decided. Just like everyone has fought for me, I will fight for others. I will help them, and struggle with them together. I want to help you... Ciel...!''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''You are not the only one who wants to protect Lu. We all do! Comrades stand together, protecting each other's back. I hope we can be someone you can rely on. Because I like traveling with you, Ciel.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Elsword...''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''We are able to operate as a team because our goals do not stray too far from each other's.''
| |
| *'''Add''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Eve''': ''Of course, I would not recommend sacrificing yourself even if your actions could potentially fulfill your goal.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Ah, Eve...!''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Huhu, I guess we'll have to make sure we don't become enemies!''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Alright! Since everyone's exhausted, let me cook up something for once! Ciel! You're off duty! Go sit down and converse with the others!''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Ah, maybe I can chop the...''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''Hm, of course, a jerky is a quick way to replenish yourself after battle.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Uh... Where did you get that?''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''I saved it. From Sander.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''That's ages ago!''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''(I told you Ciel. You are not my weapon. That is why, we have so many good people that surround us now.)''

| |
| *'''All Together''': ''Thanks for the meal!''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Mm! How delicious!''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''I feel much better!''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''... So you're 'human'.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Yes. So I am. And I'm also a demon. I'm not going to deny that I'm half demon. But Lu, and everyone accepts me as who I am, right? Who am I to deny that?''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''I've got to say, I'm surprised, 'Mr. Half-Demon'.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''Haha, I'll take that as a compliment.... I never had someone to call my own. A comrade. That's why I just... closed off. You noticed I was paranoid, and you were not wrong.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''But they are strong. They do not waver just because someone like me join in. I guess... This is what camaraderie is all about. I don't think I will make any decision that I will regret anymore. With everyone believing in me. Thank you for the advice... Ain.''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''Everyone looks out of sort.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Well, we did battle back to back without much rest...''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Perhaps now is a good time to stop by Elrianode?''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''... Yes. It's a good time to report our findings and get reorganized.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Dark Elves, violet spirits, Fire Master, and a previous demon ruler, the Red Demon King... So many things happened at once.''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Red Demon King Stirbargen...''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''That guy, kept looking down on us and smirking!''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''I should never have accepted another bet with that acoundrel...''
| |
| *'''Rena''': ''But you accepted it. In rage.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Grrr! I..! Mm... Sorry...''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Haha, it's fine. I think I would have too. But we will win and show him what's for!''
| |
| *'''Raven''': ''Speaking of bets, we still need something clarified.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''......... Eun. I think... You must have a reason for not telling me about the bet.''
| |
| *'''Eun''': ''...''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''I told you before. I believe in you. So believe in me too. Please let us know about the bet.''
| |
| *'''Eun''': ''... Alright.''
| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Hm... Welcome, 'Real Ms. Fox'.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''... Before we met with you, Ara and I met the Red Demon King, who introduced himself as Tir. He used Ara to achieve his goal, then provoked me. He told me, there was a demon going around bragging their accomplishment of sealing the Fox Spirit. Then he offered a game of hide-and-seek, with the location of the demon and Ran as our boon. However, if we lost...''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''If you lose?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''... He told me to force Ara to kill her brother with her own hands. (Ah...) In addition, he put the condition that Ara should never learn of this bet. So I could not... Back then... I thought I could work it out somehow. But... I was not fair to you. I apologize... Ara. (... Eun...)''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''So now, that bet ended as a draw because the Red Demon King revealed himself?''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Yes.... It was... Fortunate, in a sense.''
| |
| *'''Chung''': ''Mm... I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot more of him in the future.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''......''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''Hm? Elsword, it something wrong?''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''Yeah. I kept thinking... But it's better I say this now. The thing is...''

| *'''Raven''': ''In short, after we defeated the strange whale like creature in Henir's Realm, you saw a vision in which all of us died.''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''... Yeah. I couldn't say anything because I didn't want anyone to worry.... Sorry.''
| |

| |
| *'''Rena''': ''Perhaps its a foreshadow of something yet to come?''
| |

| |
| *'''Ain''': ''Elsword, you are closely connected to the El. The El can show the past using visions, so surely it's possible to see the future as well?''
| |
| *'''Elsword''': ''... Mm, I guess. I guess the El truly has endless potential.''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''We have to go through the area again to go back to Elrianode. We better prepare ourselves.''

| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Master Denif might know what's going on!''
| |
| *'''Elesis''': ''We should also tell them about what the Red Demon King told us.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''Uh... So the coordinates of the Demon Realm... The fact that the Crimson Eye is the Red Demon King's... and...''
| |
| *'''Stirbargen''': ''The governing structure of the Demon Realm has long been in disarray.''
| |
| *'''Ara''': ''... Is what he said.''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''True, Barkat, the one currently ruling the Demon Realm is not ruler material. But... I don't think that's why he said it. I wonder what he meant...''
| |
| *'''Ciel''': ''He's just testing us and left riddles for us to solve...''
| |
| *'''Lu''': ''Hmph, don't think he did us any favor Ciel. He was probably just using us! He was likely collecting information by listening to what we were saying. Since we had some information on both the El and the Dark El.''
| |
| *'''Aisha''': ''Ah... So we're going back to Elrianode... It's all fine and all...''
