*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(... There's a reason he's the King. For all his laidback persona, his skills are a real deal.)''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(It seems like he's full of openings, but if I take the bait, I'll be trapped. It's tricky...)''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''This ain't it... Your movement is all different. You weren't like this in the Abyss.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Is that so? I don't really remember how I fought in the Abyss.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(I was on edge due to the suffocating demonic energy and the limited sight from darkness... It's a miracle everyone made it out alive.)''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''It was so much better. Ah, what a bummer...''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''They say you reach your utmost potential in extreme circumstances, but I can't exactly match that condition... How about you take out your anger on me?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''My anger?''
*''(CLANG! CLANG!)''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Come to think of it, you said the same thing in my dream. Do I look like I have a lot of pent up anger?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''You don't just look that way, you actually do.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''......?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''What, don't tell me you didn't know? You must be one of those with a serious gap between your ideal and reality. A typical harbinger of justice and all that.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''That's how dream walking works. You can't choose what you want to see, but if you concentrate, you can, not only see the memory, but experience it alongside the host.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You felt my anger?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Yes. Swelled up like a balloon, ready to pop at any moment. It was fascinating.''
*''(CLANG! KEEE....)''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Tsk, stop poking around and actually face me! All you've done is dodge my attacks.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I tend to be cautious. Especially in front of sadistic demons who would slash open the face of their allies.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Hm? Ah, so you met them. How are they doing?''
*''(BOOM!)''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Good. No thanks to you.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Whoa, that one was good. I don't get it, what's the difference?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not doing anything different.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(The fight might last longer than I expected...)''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(I'll have to apologize to others later.)''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''No. This isn't it. The movements were much more fluid in the Abyss and the land of beasts!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''But you can't seem to concentrate. What's the difference? What's on your mind besides fighting with me?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Hm. I admit I'm distracted. I apologize.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''But that doesn't mean I'm not taking this seriously. You're not exactly an easy opponent.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''But you're not giving your all! Tell me, what do I need for you to take this seriously?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Hm. Even if you say that...''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''You better make this fight worthwhile for me.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Oh, that one attack earlier was pretty good. You know, the attack made immediately after you mentioned the renegades.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You call the Magmelia Dream Demons renegades?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... Come to think of it, there was a Dream Demon from Torta without a scar.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Ah, I think I know who you're talking about. You mean the one with glasses, right?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I thought all renegades received the same treatment?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Nah, he was entertaining. He lied and said he was the one who instigated the escape, but he was a barely noticeable scaredy cat while he was here.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''The courage he showed while he was shaking in his pants was memorable. So you could say it was a reward of sorts.''
*''(CRASH, BOOM!)''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Whoa, what was that? It hurt.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''A reward? You really only care about your entertainment.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''For all your talk about dangers and thrills, you're no different from your spectators.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''In what way?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You don't know what it feels like to be the only one to survive when all your comrades go down... until you experience it.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Aha... So you want to educate me?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Fine. At least you're finally taking this seriously. Show me what you've got!''

*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''What is he doing?!''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Oh? What is it? What's going on?''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''Raven charged suddenly... and is now giving an all-out-attack.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''What happened? An all-out-attack will not be to his advantage.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Yeah. Didn't you say Raven's strategy was to watch his opponent's movement and buy time until he can counterattack, Rose?''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''I think the King managed to get a rise out of him.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Really....''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''Um, I'm sure Raven has a plan. All we can do is believe in him and cheer on.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Yeah... I'm sure he'd be fine. Anyway, can you tell us more about the Land of Steel's border?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''A wall! It's very long, and very tall! It's a sight to behold!''
*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''Is having a wall really that big of a deal? Most borders have them. Though, I guess I haven't seen that much in the Demon Realm.''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Do walls even provide an obstacle to you guys? You have wings.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''We get muscle cramps! Saying you should fly over the wall is like saying you should run across Red Demon Territory without resting!''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''It must be a very high wall.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''Maybe we can ask Asella if we can borrow the airship?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''I heard about those. We didn't try, but we saw some Glitters flying over the wall using small airships.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''But I don't recommend it. Boss seems to like you. He'll be sad if you go that way.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Why? What happened to the demons that used airships...?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''The wall is so tall, we couldn't see anything from below when they went over the wall. But...''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''... It was followed by loud noise and light flashing! Ugh... It still gives me the chills!''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''......Were they shot down?''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Sounds like it. Scary.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''... What about the sea? Have you tried getting on a boat?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''We haven't tried that either! I do think it's possible. You'll have to weave between rocks, but you can remain undetected.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''But you need a very small boat to steer between rocks. At most 3 per boat.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''That means it's useless for us. There must be elite forces placed near the border.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''Going over the wall may be more difficult than we initially anticipated.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Maybe they'll open the gate if they recognize Lu...? Though we don't know if the current master of the Land of Steel is Lu's friend or foe...''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''Whichever it is, we should be able to go through the gate. Or there's no reason why they'd have the bounty.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''That's right. But for some reason... I have a bad feeling that we're missing something important...''

*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Ah... Much better! So it was a matter of will all this time?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''.......''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''I was wondering why you were talking about them, but you just wanted to confirm that I was the one to do it. How earnest.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Don't pretend like you know who I am just from glimpsing in my dreams.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''That's not the only thing. Isn't it obvious? You and I are completely different breeds.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''That's why I can guess that you're the sort who needs to know what's right or wrong.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... I don't prioritize my emotions, but it's different when your facing against someone who's morally bankrupt as opposed to someone who's good.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''And I am a bad guy, through and through. Good, bad, it's too tedious for me.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''If I don't like the guy, I will stomp, crash, and destroy! Why avoid bloodshed? I don't see the point!''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I can see that.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''But I like people like you. Those who are honorable. It's not me, but it's cool.''

*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... I didn't think you'd go this far for a fight. Why are you obsessing over this battle to the point of making overt threats.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Haha... Yeah, I'm exhausted. But... I can still fight.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''I'm going to regret it for days if I pass out and have to end this fight early when I finally got someone worth fighting against.''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Yes, that's it. And then you tie the knot.''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''The bandage can come loose while you're applying, so make sure to watch out for that.''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Ok! Like this... ... Done!''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Yay! All better! Now high-five!''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Haha... Raven is not fully recovered yet. That was just basic first aid...''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Yes. So no high-five for you, Mr. Half-Nasod.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I wasn't planning on it.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''That looks convenient. I wonder why we don't have a healer?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''That's because you only need a little rest to be fully recovered. If you're really jealous, go lick your wounds.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''That's no help... Ey, Shaddie. Support me better, will you? You're tilting me.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Sorry, will power is not enough to make Shaddie taller!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Anyway, who are you? I didn't see you in any of their dreams.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Hmph. Of course you haven't. That's because my presence is too immense and ancestral to be witnessed by your power.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Wait, really? You're the real deal?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Absolutely disrespectful... If you don't believe me, watch and see. Everything will be proven once we reach the Great Steel Wall.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''.......''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''... I don't know. I doubt it.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Tsk! You would still talk back to me?''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Calm down, Lu. Be the bigger person.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''(He's still abrasive... But it seemed that he finally acknowledged who Lu is.)''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''(... What will be waiting for us ahead?)''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''How much farther do we have to go? You're not leading us somewhere suspicious, are you?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Have so little faith in me? Look over there. You should be able to see the gate that way.''

*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''He's right! I see the gate! Why haven't you been able to go through?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Let me show you. Ey, check that contraption next to the gate.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''There's a sensor. Perhaps the door opens when it recognizes the subject?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Heh, why don’t you try.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Hmph, of course it will open. Behold, I shall show you that I'm the true Steel Queen.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Now, open the gate!''
*''...BEBEEP. BEEP- BEEP- BEEP-''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''What...! Why doesn't it open? I said I'm the true Steel Queen!''
*''BEEP- BEEP- BEEP-''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''(Does it not recognize her because it's not her true form?)''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''You lied to us all this time, Ms. Demon?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Stop it! I'm in no mood to jest! Mrr... This must be a mistake! There's something wrong!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Hahaha! Keep going! You do it five times or so, and you'll be attacked by a battalion of airships. It's really a sight to behold.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Speaking from experience?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''You can say that again. That gate does not open. It's made that way.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''The gate is also just carved to look like a gate. Go look closely if you're curious.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''It doesn't open? Why would someone make something like that?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''It's all a trap. Hahaha! Isn't it entertaining?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''The massive bounty on the Steel Queen was a scam! A ploy! Who would have imagined!''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''The alarm is set to ring after a slight delay when you reveal your identity...''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''It's made to harm whoever claims to be the Steel Queen, whether real or fake.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''After... me? Why...? To this extent...''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''... We understand we cannot use this gate. Then how can we go over this wall?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''For that, we have forged a path! If it's alright with you, I'll take you there, Boss!''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Um...''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Yes, Boss! What can I do for you?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... What did you call me?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Huh? Well... You won against Big Boss, so you're the new Boss. That's why I'm calling you Boss!''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Wow... Raven, you have subordinates now...''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''I don't think Raven is interested in becoming a part of your group... Besides, he's not a demon.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Aw, it's fine. We don't care about those things!''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I uh... still would rather if you don't call me that.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Wha...? Boss, what do I do? It seems Big Boss doesn't want to be called Boss!''
*{{StoryIcon|Iccus3}} '''Ikus:''' ''Then what do we call him?''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''I don't know. Why don't you like it? This never happened before.''
*{{StoryIcon|Eris3}} '''Eris:''' ''Mm hm... Oh! What about Chief?''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Oh, that's good! You can also differentiate from Boss!''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I'm not comfortable with that either...''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''I don't think you're allowed to refuse.''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''That's right! Didn't you say something like, everyone serve under you if you defeat the alpha dog... Or something like that?''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''You act all cool, saying those things only to abandon them the next moment? They want to serve you, just let them be. You fit the role.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You seem too entertained. Am I sensing your grudge from the earlier match?''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Nope! You must be hearing things.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''.......''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''Enough with the chit-chat and lead us the way right now! We're in a hurry!''

*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Aren't you impatient? You see that gate over there? If you go a bit further, you should see that one of the lights on the wall is out.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''The pathway connected to it is near the Arena. If you use that, you can climb up the wall without being discovered.''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain''' ''Are all those lights installed for security reasons? Anyone with half a brain cell won't leave a broken light unfixed.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''If you break them, they're fixed in a couple of days. But all we need to do is go break it again!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''A machine comes to fix it. Whoever the new ruler is, he's definitely a coward.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''The machines on top of the wall can be a hassle, but you can see what their limitations are when you keep facing them.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Enough said. You'll know what I'm talking about when you face them yourself.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Anyway, we destroyed the security light on the wall and installed a transportation device. You don't have to bother climbing the wall!''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain''' ''I suppose at that point, even stolen talent can be considered a gift.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Boss! I'll teach you some more useful tips!''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''The wall is not as it seems! There are several more layers inside. The height is the same as the most outer layer and ugh... It's like a web of convoluted paths!''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''You're not spiders, so you shouldn't climb off the wall!''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Always travel on top of the wall... Got it!''
*{{StoryIcon|Iccus3}} '''Ikus:''' ''Also, there are security lights all over up there. If you go up, you'll be discovered immediately.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''But there should be a device somewhere that receives and sends out the signal. We haven't actually confirmed, but we're pretty sure!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''We didn't manage to find it, but if you find and break it, all the devices on the wall should stop operating.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Then we'll be able to follow you and enter the walls.''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''If you clear the path, we will follow!''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Wow! You learned a lot! You guys... I didn't think you'd help us so much.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Of course we'll help with Chief going. Unfortunately, I won't be able to go right this moment.''
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''We'll leave it to you, advance party.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''It's like they're completely on our side now...''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''Here, this is the map that we made. It's not complete yet, but it should still be helpful!''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''Thank you. Eri, you should go back as well. Use the frame and go back to Magmelia.''
*{{StoryIcon|Eris3}} '''Eris:''' ''Will you be alright? If I go back with the frame, you won't be able to run in an emergency.''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''We have the map so we should be fine. We received a lot of help, too.''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Plus, we also have a task for you.''
*{{StoryIcon|Eris3}} '''Eris:''' ''Oh? Do tell.''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''We don't know what's beyond the wall, but it's probably going to be more difficult once we're on the other side.''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''We have many engineering experts here as well, but an engineer from the Demon Realm is probably more well-versed on Demon Realm technology. Can you contact the people if we give you a list?''
*{{StoryIcon|Eris3}} '''Eris:''' ''Roger! Just give me the word!''
*{{StoryIcon|Shaddie}} '''Shaddie:''' ''I guess this is farewell for now, Chief! Good luck!''
*{{StoryIcon|Iccus3}} '''Ikus:''' ''You have to win. We'll follow you shortly!''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Sigh...''
