Quest Completion Dialogue
Main 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.

Quest Completion Dialogue
Main 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~

Quest Completion Dialogue
Main 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! Rose: Wow, Aisha's magic and Eve's tech are amazing. I can't believe how secure we are with this many people. Elsword: Look over there! Denif: Is this the 'seal' that you've mentioned? Ventus: Yes, I also found out about it when I jumped in to save those trouble makers~ 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. Ventus: Alright then, ready everyone? Anduran: Ready! Elesis: ...! The light! Chung: There's a gap between the seal! Elsword: Let's hurry! Eun: Ara. Ara: Yes, Eun? Eun: ...... Ara: Eun? Eun: Will you... trust me, no matter what happens? Ara: ... You seemed worried. Eun: Hoho, me? Worried? ... Well yes, I'm worried you might trip and get into trouble again. Ara: Euun!! I don't do that any more! ... Much... And of course I trust you, always. Eun: Alright, alright. Just don't cause too much trouble. Ara: Yes!

Quest Completion Dialogue
Main Rena: This is...! Chung: Henir energy?! Ain: This potency... The Demon Realm must be completely under the influence of Henir, My, isn't this exciting? Elsword: Henir energy is weighing down on my body... but it's more manageable than I thought... Ciel: That means we are stronger, right? Looks like all that training was worth the effort. Eve: Still, the Demon Realm is dangerous. If we are exposed to this much Henir energy for too long, we would likely perish. Ara: We need to find a way out of here... Chung: But it's too dark... Ciel: Didn't we pass this place just a moment ago? Ain: Miss Demon, can't you sense anything? My legs are getting tired... Lu: Hmph! Stop making such a fuss! You are distracting me! Grrrr... Over there, that way! Elsword: ...... Ain: Hm? You look like you have something to say, Elsword. Elsword: Ah, it's nothing. Just... If you're feeling tired, we could always take a rest. No need to push yourself. Ain: Haha, I never thought I'd worry you so much. I'd have to make sure to 'step up my game'. Don't worry. I'm feeling fine. Elesis: Since this is Henir's domain, I didn't think there would be anything alive. But that thing... Raven: ... I don't know if you should call that thing alive. All I know is that it was as hard as a rock. Eve: Fascinating... These beings are truly contradictory. Elsword: Did you find something, Eve? Eve: Based on the data we collected in Elrianode, these monsters are comprosed of 98% Henir energy. Essentially, these beings are manifestations of chaos and destructin. Add: Destruction, which turns everything to nothing, chaos which scatters anything that is whole, and a 'manifestation' composed of destruction and chaos... A contradiction indeed. Shame we have to leave this fascinating test subject behind... Chung: Safety comes before research, come one! Elsword: Wait, stop! Aisha: ...... Rena: ...... Elsword: Huh, weird... I thought I felt something... Aisha: Ooooh, what was that for?! I thought my heart was going to stop. Raven: I don't sense anything. Let's move one. Elsword: ... sure. (Rrrrrrr Click-!) Chung: Here! A stepping pad! Aisha: I knew things wouldn't be easy... But I never thought we would be lost in Henir's domain without a way out. Eve: Watch your step. If you fall, there is no coming back. Of course we'll try our best to rescue anyone who falls... But some situations call for sacrifices. Aisha: That's brutal! Eve: Huhu, I am joking. I believe I am getting a hang of this 'humor'. (Keee- Screeeech-)) Aisha: Uaaah, what was that?! Did anyone else hear that? Rena: I heard it too! Could it be...? (Whooosh-) Rena: ! Aisha: ! Eve: ! Ara: U, up there...! Ciel: Quiet, this one looks tough. It seems this is the guy that Elsword sensed earlier. Raven: ... It's gone. Did it not see us? Ciel: Or maybe we're not even worth a bother. Lu: Look! I can smell the Demon Realm beyond this strange wall. Elsword: You were... looking through smell...? Lu: I meant figuratively. Come on! Rena: Everyone, make sure we stay together.

I shouldn't have let my guard down. Elesis: Looks like we need to defeat that thing before we can move one! Add: This one is nothing like the ones we've encountered earlier! Stay alert!

Main Ciel: Ugh, it's just one problem after another... Elsword: Is everyone alright? Elesis: Somewhat. That was pretty tough. Eve: Data analysis complete. That creature is the strongest among all that dwell in this area. Rose: Let's move on before anything else comes. Raven: Yes. And thank you for the save earlier. Rose: I've only done what I had to do. I'm glad you're safe. Raven: Do you have a background in tactics? You seem to know what you were doing, when you fell back to support. Rose: Indeed, I'm glad you noticed! Since I specialize in guns and other long-range artillery, I tend to fall back to make most use of my abilities. Add: Hm... And this tin can is surprisingly useful as a navigation system, even though it's useless as a battle unit. Zero: Hey you, stop staring at me like that. What are you, wait-what's that? Are you planning to take me apart?! ROOOOSE! HEEELP!! PROTECT ME RIGHT THIS INSTANT!!!! Rose: For example, this grenade was recently developed to... Zero: Oi! Stop ignoring me! Eve: Fascinating, an AI powered by the El, created in a different dimension... Zero: Gyaaaaa! Rena: Haha, seems everyone is getting along. Elesis: Well, I have to admit she is useful in battle. Though I don't know if I can trust her yet. Rena: Being cautious is fine, but do make sure you're not always thinking of her negatively. You might become biased, thought I'm sure you know best. Elesis: ... I don't think she's a bad person. I just think we need more time to figure out what kind of person she is. Rena: Huhuhu, that's why we always rely on our Captain of the Red Knights. Lu: Ohoho is that why you were so wary of me as well? Aren't you just adorable~ Elesis: Errr... Elsword: Haha, come on everyone, let's stop the chit chat and move on. Something doesn't feel... (Keeee- Screeeech- Keeeee--!!) Chung: Ara!!! Ara: Kugh...! Aisha: I thought we defeated that thing earlier!? Eve: It's not the same monster, it merely has the same appearance. Wait... Enemies approaching! 10... 20... 50... 100?! Danger level at critical point! Everyone wa..!! Elsword: Aisha! Eve! Chung! Kugh...!! Rena! Ara! Lu! Ciel! Raven! Sis! Please! Open your eyes! Ugh...! Ain! Rose! No... (Keeeeee- Keee-!!!) Elsword: No... We can't... be... Aisha: ... sword. Elsword!! Are you okay? Elsword: ?! Aisha: What are you zoning out for? Let's go, everyone's waiting. Elsword: (What... was that...? A vision?) Aisha: Did you hurt yourself earlier? ... If you're worried about anything, let us know, ok? Elsword: ...... Ok. Though I don't know how much help you would be~ Aisha: What did you say-!! You want a taste of my magic?! Elsword: Uuah!

Main Ain: This is... Lu: Yes. This air... This atmosphere... There's no question. This is what you call the Demon Realm. My home world. Add: I don't understand how Henir's domain appeared in between Elrios and the Demon Realm, but we're here. Rena: There are trees everywhere... Looks like we're in the middle of a forest. Ciel: There's no sign of living things. Not even animals. Lu: Hm... I've never been to this forest. I don't know which way to go. Add: Hmph, what use is a demon that doesn't know their way around the Demon Realm? Ara: Ahaha, Add... (Sigh) Elsword: Well, let's go up that tree to take a look around. Rose: Good idea. Let's hurry then. Aisha: I didn't think the trees would be big enough to just walk up... Ain: It may take some time, but at least we won't fall down. Aisha: Don't jinx it! It might actually happen you know... Elesis: Anyways, this forest is really dense. With this many trees growing to this size, I won't be surprised if there's some kind of a guardian in this forest. Rena: It's quite similar to Elder's Shadow Forest. I wish I could communicate with the spirits of the Demon Realm... Aisha: Is it not possible to communicate with them? Rena: I'm not sure. They just run away when I try to talk to them... Chung: Look! This mushroom is glowing blue! Lu: Ohoho~ They're quite cute! Ciel, can you cook with this? Ciel: I don't know anything about mushrooms in the Demon Realm, but we don't touch colorful mushrooms like these in Elrios since they usually have poison. Lu: Ah, such a shame. Raven: Though it will be easier to find our way with the mushrooms lighting to the path. Even if we can't eat it. Elsword: ... Hey, sis. Elesis: Hm? Elsword: ... I want to say... Rena: Everyone stand where you are. Ciel: Oh, Lu: Ow! Ciel! Why did you stop all of a sudden! Ara: Ack! Add: Did you just smack me?! Rena: Shhh! ... There's something ahead. Is that...?! Elesis: What did you see? ...! A dark elf..? Lu: Oh, so this is the forest of the Dark Elves! Elesis: (Then this must be the dark continent. I never knew the dark continent was part of the Demon Realm.) Rena: ... They seem different from the Dark Elves that invaded Elrios. Elsword: Yeah? I can't really tell. Rena: Let's try speaking to them.... I'm sure they'd understand the Ancient Elvan language. Dark Elf: ! Who's there! Rena: We have no intention to fight. We're here to talk. Dark Elf: Ancient Elvan? Are you an elf from Elrios? Elsword: I don't understand what's going on, but they look friendly. Aisha: I hope so... Dark Elf: ... What?! You came through the Cave of Death? You dare lie to us? Nothing can survive inside that cave. I knew you were suspicious. You're under arrest! Rena: Kugh! Aisha: I knew it! Elesis: No choice, let's get out of here for now!

It's not easy to subdue them without causing harm. Chung: Yes... While my body... still feels heavy. Ain: We're removed from the protection of El after all. It may feel heavy at first, but we'll get used to it. Lu: Mmhm~ And this is coming from someone who's struggling the most. Ain: Haha, if you shut up, I'll feel much better. Elesis: Let's get out of here before reinforcements arrive. Stomp- Aisha: Did you hear that? Stomp- Chung: Sounds like something big is coming towards us...! Stomp- Aisha: O, over there! That giant shadow! Do you see? Ciel: It's very big.... But looks like it didn't notice us. Rena: Sigh... We can't let our guards down even a moment... Ara: Look!

Main Chloe: You look like you've seen a ghost. Rena: Well... Raven: When you've fought us at every corner only to disappear after Hamel, isn't it natural we thought you were dead? Chloe: If I were weak and naive like you lot maybe. Elsword: ... Are you here to pick a fight? We won't go down easy this time. Elesis: Elsword, wait. Chloe, what are you doing all alone? You've always had a couple of elves with you when you were in Velder. Plus, the Dark Elves we've seen earlier didn't seem to know anything about the Demon invasion in Elrios. Chloe: ...... Elesis: What's going on here? Chloe: What, do I have a nanny now? Asking me what I'm doing every step of the way? Ciel: I don't think you understand the situation you're in. We are choosing to be courteous, but that could always change. Chloe: Tsk... I'm no longer a general of the Demon Army. In fact, I walked out of the army a while ago. Rose: ... A deserter? Chloe: Hmph, call me what you want. I merely have business with the Dark Elves. Ara: Is there a village nearby? Chloe: ... Yes, on the way to the village, I heard a commotion. When I came to check, you morons went ahead and killed the Red Guardian. Elsword: What's so important about this flower? Chloe: I can't believe I'm talking to these idiots. The Guardian represents the forest. It eliminates the enemies of the forest in place of the trees. The Dark Elves live in symbiotic relationship with the Red Guardian as the other guardian of the forest. By now, they probably know you're here. I can't believe you lot are still getting in my way. Add: What did you...! Rena: Whoa, whoa, Add, calm down..! Raven: We can't fully trust her due to what happened in the past, but we need her help to get out of this forest. Ciel: If we can just resolve our misunderstanding with the Dark Elves, we might be able to stay temporarily at their village. Elsword: Then... Chloe: No. Aisha: We didn't even finish asking. Chloe: Isn't it obvious? I refuse to go anywhere with a bunch of nitwits. Elesis: We need your knowledge of the area, and you need to arrive safely at the village. Let's just say we're using each other, if you don't like the idea of working together. Chloe: ...... Tsk, fine.
