The fight ended due to Lu's intervention, but it seems Ricardo is satisfied enough. Ricardo's voice from the mike is full of exhilaration. | The fight ended due to Lu's intervention, but it seems Ricardo is satisfied enough. Ricardo's voice from the mike is full of exhilaration. | ||

*{{StoryIcon|?}} '''???:''' ''-'' | *{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''And? What are your thoughts?'' | ||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Exactly what I've hoped for. Nice... Very nice...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''The body full of scars, the terrifying machine arm, the vicious drive displayed in the way you throw your entire body into a fight regardless of the dangers presented!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''A seasoned fighter whose whole body can be considered a weapon. Hahaha! You're the culmination of my ideal warrior and hero.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You have strange taste. Since I've met your expectation, do you mind giving me some answers?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Ah. Sure, go on. What do you want to know?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You used dream walking to spy on us for a while. I want to comment on the method, but we'll skip it for now...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You didn't just call us over for this joke of a business... What is the Wall?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Kuhuhu... Thanks for asking. I wanted to tell you anyway. Where should I start...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Ey, Spectators! Are you enjoying the Arena?'' | |||
*''(YEAAAAH!!)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Too bad. What you're feeling is all fake.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Watching matches from a safe place talking about danger and thrill... Are you serious? You're all pathetic!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''Yikes, the spectators are stirring.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''A total killjoy. What is he getting at?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''If you're in denial, let me tell you. We had a goal. A goal that was put aside when too many of our brethren were lost.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''But now that goal is back with the closing of the Abyss! A path unimaginable for those satisfied with these silly games is just beyond the other side.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Understand? A true challenge where you cannot predict the victor, a hunting ground full of dangers is right around the corner!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Where? Where is he talking about?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Who knows what he's pointing from the underground...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''I will remind our goals to the lucky people presented here today.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Torta will conquer the Land of Steel, the Land of Demise!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''What?!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''WHAT?!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''And we will do that with these brave warriors!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Ha, haha. How about it, Lu? They want to conquer your land together. What do you think?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''Hmph! I can't even find the words to describe how ridiculous it is. How dare he covet my land, insolent fool...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Why are you trying to conquer the Land of Steel? Are you also after the treasure that's said to be there?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Who cares about gold that only weighs down your body! You didn't jump into the Abyss looking for treasure.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''When you see a mountain, you climb it. When you see an enemy, you fight it. When you see danger, you jump towards it! That's all there is to it.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''... He's acting like we're friends. Mr. Half-Nasod didn't seem too happy about meeting him in dreams.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Blu}} '''Ain:''' ''Still, we can use his one-sided familiarity to our advantage. Maybe he'll be much more willing to answer our questions.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I heard Dream Demons are not as affected by the plague.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I imagine the dangers of the Land of Steel you speak of have nothing to do with the Contamination... What dangers are you talking about?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''You're pretty sharp. You're right. There are dangers beyond your imagination dwelling in those lands...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''But that's all you get for now! If you want to learn more, you have to accept my offer.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I'll ask another question. What will you do if I refuse your offer?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Unfortunately that will mean the end of our acquaintance. You'll have to leave Torta immediately.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Though let me tell you one thing. If you refuse my offer, you will never be able to reach the Land of Steel.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Are you going to stop us?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Nope. There's no need.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Aps}} '''Ara:''' ''That's unexpected. I thought they'd force our stay like the other Dream Demons.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''Either he's lying or has done something. Or maybe it's that difficult to get to the Land of Steel. I wonder which it is...'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''I see. So our options are either to accept the offer, or to leave.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Lib}} '''Noah:''' ''The offer must be to join them as Dream Demons.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|CC}} '''Chung:''' ''Then it's decided. We refuse and look for another way to the Land of Steel. I'm sure we can find a way.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... Neither options are acceptable. Why don't I make a suggestion? Come down to the Arena.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''... Ha? You talking to me?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Yes. You may be satisfied with our performance, but I'm not.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Shouldn't I be able to test if you're all talk, or actually strong enough to lead us?'' | |||
*''(CLING!)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''Draw your weapon, King of Torta! I challenge you to a duel!'' | |||
---- | |||
*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''So this is how it goes. Can't say I didn't see it coming.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''I'm a bit worried for Raven. We fought with beasts on the way here, and then he fought with Ciel. He must be exhausted. Wouldn't he be at a disadvantage?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''Mm... I couldn't help it. The fight got too heated.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Then maybe you should have cooled your head!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''A duel with me? Hahaha! That sounds interesting! Fine, I accept! Any other conditions?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''If I win, you have to open the way to the Land of Steel.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Then what will you give me if you lose?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''(Eri said he might even accept the short end of the stick as long as he's entertained. Then, let's see...)'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''... I will seriously consider your offer.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''Wow. Should I bow down for your amazing offer? Hm... It's really not a fair trade, but sure.'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''I was dying of boredom, but I think a fight should be fun!'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|RH}} '''Raven:''' ''You, the master of the Arena, don't get to fight?'' | |||
*{{StoryIcon|Ricardo}} '''Ricardo:''' ''I only accept duels that excite me. I'll let you go first. Come at me!'' | |||
