As the battle continues, everyone is getting exhausted, but the enemies haven't decreased in numbers. In midst of all this, the uncomfortable feeling is distorting the senses. Defeating them is not the answer. There must be another way.

*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Is that one a mutation? It looks different from others and is obsessively going after us.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''It's not going down. It seems to have regenerative properties.''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''I thought it might be over when the demonic energy faded... What about the trail left by Vasili? Where is it headed next?''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''It's still headed downwards.''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Did Vasili manage to avoid all of them as he went down?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(... I have a bad feeling about this.)''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''It seems each individual feels a varying degree of distortion from the demonic energy of Abyss.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''... Is something wrong with the Nasod Arm?''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Yes. It seems to amplify your usual concerns or weaknesses...''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''It's not currently getting in the way of fighting, but I'll be careful as it might put everyone in danger if it overloads. I hope you do the same.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''I'll take that under consideration, but I don't think it's necessary.''
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''I believe you will be more than sufficient at controlling your arm.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... I must.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''Your... weakness...''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''... Haa, tsk, damn it...''
*''(SCRATCH, SCRATCH)''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''He's trying to hide it, but the scratching is getting worse.''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''We should stop him, but it wouldn't be wise to butt in. Despite his attitude, he's quite sensitive.''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Whoa...! Hey, Add! What are you doing?''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Goodness, you scratched it all up! Your neck it already scarred, you're only going to make it worse!''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''Wha, Elesis! Wai...''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''Ugh, What! I didn't do anytihng...!''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Yeah, and my hair is not red. Let me take a look. Ahh it looks painful.''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''Agh... Don'touch me!''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''No need to be prickly about it... I'm just worried! Who knows what kind of adverse effect the demonic energy might have on your wound. You might get infected.''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Add. You are an important, reliable member of our team.''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Reading and analyzing the battlefield, and going back and forward, reacting faster than anyone.''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''Because of you, we can camly prepare for our next move.''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''.......''
*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''So take care of yourself. I'm going to watch to make sure you don't touch your neck!''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''Tsk... Fine. I was going to stop anyway.''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''(Hm. It looks like everything is resolved...)''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''I'm back. I took care of the altar. Is everyone alright?''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''I have a plan. Come, I'll fill you in.''
----
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''You mean we should leave the Abyss Worshipers behind?''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Yes. Up until now, we fought them after scattering the demonic energy gathered at the altar to weaken them.''
*{{StoryIcon|Min}} '''Rose:''' ''But they show no sign of defeat, holding us in this place.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''Is it fine to leave them alone? They don't seem to like light, so we should be able to chase them away briefly...''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''But they seemed to recover their strength using the demonic energy from the altar. They will catch up soon enough.''
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''It will be fine. There will be less functioning altars further down the Abyss, since the grounds there would have been buried long ago.''
*{{StoryIcon|Abyss Worshipper}} '''Abyss Worshiper:''' ''[gnippots sngila laog ruo]''
*{{StoryIcon|Abyss Worshipper}} '''Abyss Worshiper:''' ''[b dloh lliw ew ends ssyba nehw kca]''
*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Let's do as Ain says. We don't have any other way of defeating them.''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''I just need to cast a strong light spell? Ok, here I go!''
*''(SHIIING!)''
*''... ... ... ...''
*{{StoryIcon|Abyss Worshipper}} '''Abyss Worshiper:''' ''[eht ton era uoy eno]''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''We managed to stop them from approaching with the light... But they're still following us.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''They're catching up to us, using the blind spot where the light doesn't reach.''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Ughh... I can't watch!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''We need a stronger light source. How about using a photon bomb. That should brighten up this area with a bang.''
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''It wouldn't last long. Plus, it will hurt us just as much with how much our eyes have adjusted to the dark.''
*{{StoryIcon|Abyss Worshipper}} '''Abyss Worshiper:''' ''[ciov ruo su pleh netsil e]''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''... Hm.''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''To sum it up, these worshippers are following us in the blind spots due to a concentrated light source, right?''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''Then multiple small light sources will be much more effective than one big one. Does she not know that spell?''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''Is it a forgotten spell in this era? Let's see...''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''Delighted light, blooming in the blighted night...''
*''(BLIING... BLIING...)''
*''(ZOOM!)''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Wha? The light exploded in a poof!''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''... Huh?! There are... multiple lights?''
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''Wow... I can now see further even with smaller lights like this! The worshippers also slowed down because there are fewer shadows.''
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Whoa! So pretty! The lights are falling slowly like feathers! We can follow them and go down slowly!''
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''What a perfect spell for this circumstance. Good job!''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Uh... What? Huh? It wasn't me!''
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Who else if it wasn't you? You're the only magician here.''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''(Magician...)''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''(... Oh!)''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''Ahehem...''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''(You...! You! Is this what you meant by helping...?!)''
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Did someone else sneak in to the Abyss?''
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''It doesn't seem like it. Ae you sure you didn't forget after you used it?''
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''What's this? It's not an attacking spell. What's that? I remember reading about it... Wait, did I actually do it? No, it can't be...''
*{{StoryIcon|Clamor3}} '''Clamor:''' ''(Oh... I didn't mean to... confuse anyone...?)''
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''(Face it. You hide your identity to pull something like this and snicker in the back. Am I wrong?)''
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Hahaha... More importantly, look down everyone. I can see the ground.''
