Chapter 8: Invaders from Another World

A messenger from Feita has notified Stella in Bethma Village that there was an invasion by an Evil Force. Elsword and the gang decided to go there to see what all the fuss is about. Feita has a shrine for the El, but the demons have begun destroying the gate. Elsword and his Party need to save the El in the shrine before the demons get to it!

When Elsword and his Party entered the Chapel in the center of Feita, they realized a Dark El was contaminating the area. The secretary of Feita named Allegro, has warned the Party that the Evil Force is to blame for the corruption of the Dark El. The Party broke into the Altar to defeat the Evil Forces that were protecting the Dark El and closed the gate off, so that Feita can finally be in peace again.

Quest Completion Dialogue
Main Ain Allegro: Oh, uh hello! Are you the El Search Party? I have heard a lot about your prowess. You've retrieved Ruben's El? Rena: Well, Elsword is the only one who's actually in the El Search Party, but... I suppose that's a suitable title for now. Aisha: First off... Mr. Allegro? Can you tell us the situation in Feita? Allegro: Ah, yes. Let me introduce myself. I am... Allegro, secretary of Feita. You can call me Allegro. Allegro: Demonic energy has always been strong in Feita. The El Lady's Shrine was built in order to suppress that energy, and there's always someone guarding the area. Allegro: Let's just say that the story of the 'Monster Outbreak of the Black Forest' from the founding legends of Elrian Kingdom took place in Feita. Aisha: Hey Elsword! Are you listening? Elsword: I get it. This place has always been creepy. And monsters showing up is nothing new, which is why soldiers were guarding the area. Allegro: Yes. But monsters that were unprecedented in power appeared from within the Shrine. Allegro: Right now, they have taken over the entire shrine, and the army is barely managing to prevent the monsters coming out of the shrine by blocking the entrance. Allegro: Hold on, Sir Lento should be able to give you a better explanation. Elsword: Alright. But... is this the main base? It seems too small to be the base for the main army. Allegro: Ah, everyone had to hurry out so their gear aren't in good shape. Raven: Even after taking that into consideration, it isn't great... Velder's reinforcements haven't arrived yet? Allegro: No... We think it's possible that the reinforcements are dealing with the monsters that managed to escape Feita's perimeter. Lento: We couldn't just wait for Velder's reinforcements, so we requested your help. Allegro: Sir Lento! Lento: Hello. I am Lento of Feita's Guards. I was assigned Captain for the Feita Shine Search Party. Lento: We believe Feita's Shrine has already been taken over. Most of the guards are focusing their efforts on blocking the entrance to detain the enemy. Aisha: If you are trying to keep them in... Why don't you build a barricade for a proper line of defense? Lento: Our purpose is to reclaim the shrine and investigate the cause for this mass breakout to stop it once and for all. For that, we need proper investigation of what's happening inside the shrine. Lento: As such, we need to secure a path to entry before forming a proper line of defense. Rena: I see. Then will we be helping in securing the path? Lento: That's the plan. I will lead you to the entrance of the shrine. Allegro: Oh, uh hello! Are you the El Search Party? I have heard a lot about your prowess. You've retrieved Ruben's El?

Lento: We couldn't just wait for Velder's reinforcements, so we requested your help. Allegro: Sir Lento! Lento: Hello. I am Lento of Feita's Guards.

Description
The El Search Party hears the current situation from the secretary, Allegro, and the Feita Guard, Lento. Securing the route to the Shrine is priority.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Main Ain Lento: ... According to the map, Feita's Guards have managed to enter up to this point, to the entrance that leads to the inner part of the shrine... Lento: But had to retreat because monsters equipped like knights have blocked their paths. Lento: All the witnesses fainted after repeating that they could not see the face, so this is as far as we know. Aisha: What's up with that? Creepy... Elsword: ... I wonder why they couldn't see the face? Rena: Maybe it's because they were wearing helmets? Since they were knights. Elsword: But shouldn't that be obvious? If they couldn't see the face because of the helmet, they would have described the helmet instead of saying they couldn't see the face. Allegro: ... Eve: Allegro, do you have something to say? Allegro: Oh! No... it's just... well this may be a stretch... Allegro: But it bothered me as well that all the soldiers said they couldn't see the face. Maybe it's because they saw... a Durahan Knight? Eve: A Durahan? (FLIP FLIP) Allegro: Headless knight... equipped with sturdy armor and shield, they are known for being undefeatable because they do not have a corporeal body... Allegro: That's the description of a Durahan Knight. There's a record of them from the Monster Outbreak of the Black Forest. Rena: I thought that was just a story? Allegro: I, I'm sorry... That's why I said it might be a... stretch... Raven: A headless knight... I see... Then when they said they could not see the face, they could have meant 'there was nothing to see where you would normally se a face'. Aisha: S, stop over analyzing it! Elsword: If they are undefeatable, how are we supposed to defeat it? Allegro: They are not completely invulnerable. According to the records, the reason why Durahan Knights were able to revive multiple times after their death is because there's a core that contains its soul inside its armor. Eve: The core is its actually form. Understood, we will keep that in mind. Aisha: Wait, why are you all taking this so seriously? A headless knight? That's... That's... Rena: Whether or not the story of the headless knight is true, it doesn't change the fact that we have to reclaim the entrance after defeating what's there. So we'll just keep it in mind! Allegro: Oh, one more thing. There was also a witness account of a golem. They're usually not that common, but it seems they surged in numbers due to the increase demonic energy. Allegro: The key to defeating a golem is also the core at the center of their body. Perhaps they share traits with Durahans. Please, be careful. Lento: ...

We need to defeat it no matter what it looks like. Stand back if you are scared. I can take care of it. Aisha: I, I wasn't scared!! Allegro: Oh, one more thing. There was also a witness account of a golem. They're usually not that common, but it seems they surged in numbers due to the increase demonic energy. Allegro: The key to defeating a golem is also the core at the center of their body. Perhaps they share traits with Durahans. Please, be careful.

Main Ain [After Reclaiming the Shrine's Entrance, Feita Main Base] Aisha: ... Rena: What's wrong Aisha? Is something worrying you? You seem to be staring at Eve a lot. Aisha: Yikes! Oh, it's you, Rena. It's nothing. Aisha: I just realized... People seem to accept Eve without a problem here, don't you think? Rena: I think that's probably because they don't know that Eve is a Nasod. Aisha: But the difference is still noticeable, isn't it? Maybe it's because I know, but sometimes I feel awkward around her. Aisha: She seems... stiff...? Formal? Sometimes kind of emotionless... So I don't know what to say. Rena: You should be fine once you get to know each other. Eve seems just like an ordinary girl to me! Rena: It might not be noticeable on the surface, but I think she's someone full of emotion! Aisha: Really...? Allegro: Oh, you're back! Was it really...? Raven: You were right. We defeated the headless knight. No need to worry. Elsword: So what we fought is a demon? It really wasn't that bad. They were like evil Nasods. Eve: We are not at all alike! It's an insult to compare our species with a demon monster like that! Elsword: Huh? But... Nasods are made up of metal, and still move. Isn't that the same thing? Eve: ... I shall let this offense pass, since it is your ignorance that led to your offensive behavior. One day, I will instruct you on our vast history from the start to the end. Elsword: Oh, uh, no... That's not really necessary... Eve: I will make sure you will never utter such a foolish statement again! Aisha: ... I think you're right. Rena: Huhuhu, told you so! Isn't she adorable? Eve: ... Anyway, we also destroyed the Golem's core. I would love to research it more one day if I had the chance. Raven: I don't think this is the appropriate time to research and experiment. Eve: I... didn't mean to sound like that. It's important to learn about your enemies. Aisha: That's true. Your book was really useful, Allegro. It helped us out a lot. Allegro: Ah yes, it's all thanks to the Captain of the... I mean... uh, I was also surprised. Allegro: I thought it was just a story created to praise the magnificence of the Elrian Kingdom... I didn't think it would be so accurate. Elsword: I guess that means demons also invaded a long time ago. They're persistent. Allegro: Now that the Durahan is gone... The Guards were able to create a proper line of defense around the shrine. Rena: All that is left is to enter the shrine. Lento: Wait, we need time for preparations. The soldiers could not rest because they were blocking the entrance. Lento: You should take a rest as well. I will explain the inside layout of the shrine shortly. Elsword: I feel fine. But I suppose if we need to... [After Reclaiming the Shrine's Entrance, Feita Main Base] Aisha: ... Rena: What's wrong Aisha? Is something worrying you? You seem to be staring at Eve a lot. Aisha: Yikes! Oh, it's you, Rena. It's nothing. Aisha: I just realized... People seem to accept Eve without a problem here, don't you think?

How dare they try to step foot inside the sacred land of the Goddess.) Ain: (This may not be my main mission, but I cannot let this happen. I must eliminate the demons at once.)

It would be a shame if you're injured because you don't take proper care of yourself. Elsword: Oh, alright... I'll be careful... Ain: Yes, please do. Ain: ... Well, then, I'll go alone for a while. Raven: What do you mean? It's dangerous to move on your own. Rena: He's right. Is something wrong? We'll go with you. Ain: I need to take a look at the chapel. Especially with demons swarming this place. Ain: Don't worry. They are no match for me. Elsword: ... Do priests still need to work in situations like these? Ain: Haha, some jobs you can never get away. Elsword: Even though you told me not to go off on my own... Fine. Be careful Ain! Ain: ...? ... Ah, alright. I'll be back. Aisha: Ain listens to Elsword so well!

Origin of Dark Energy

Description
The Dark El is what's exuding demonic energy. You have to stop the one creating Dark Els by imbuing demonic energy to the El in the Chapel.
Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Main Ain Allegro: El Search Party, how do you feel? Rena: I'm fi... Ack...! Elsword: Rena!? Are you alright? Rena: A strange voice... darker than the darkest shadow... is ringing through my head. Allegro: Oh, dear! I must apologize. The demonic energy from the Dark El must be affecting you. Please keep a distance when talking to me. Eve: Dark... El? Is that what you're holding? Allegro: Yes. It's an El shard tainted with demonic energy. It now exudes demonic energy instead of El energy. One of our soldiers found it at the Underground Chapel. Allegro: The chapel is where sacred El energy was collected to deliver to the Altar of Dedication at the top of the shrine. Eve: This gem might be the reason the whole shrine is shrouded by demonic energy. Allegro: Yes. For now, I will attempt to purify the demonic energy in this shard, but there may be more of them in the chapel. Aisha: And we just need to... retrieve them? Allegro: No, that won't be necessary... Lento, I mean Sir Lento ordered the soldiers to search for the Dark El. I'm more worried about the being that injected demonic energy to the El shard. Raven: Inject? It wasn't the mere presence of demons that changed it? It was created artificially? Eve: To do something like this to the El... UNless we capture the demon responsible, I doubt we will be able to defeat all the demons. Allegro: The demon in the chapel is suspected to be an Amethyst. It doesn't have a corporeal form, and it is known to revive as long as it has mana. Aisha: Uuuuuh...! It doesn't have a form? Why are there so many demons that are like ghosts around here... Elsword: You're afraid of ghosts? Are you a child? Aisha: It's creepy! I get goosebumps just thinking about them! Elsword: No need to yell! If you don't want to go, you can stay here. We'll go on our own. Aisha: N, no! I feel a distortion in mana! Aisha: A strong distortion... These do no occur naturally. And who knows, maybe I'll find my ring there... Aisha: Do you understand? I have to check it with my own eyes! Elsword: I get it... Though you're not convincing anyone when you're stuck to your seat like that. Raven: I comes back to life as long as it has mana... It doesn't seem to have a core, unlike Durahan. Then how do we defeat it? Allegro: If you neutralize the Amethyst, our soldiers will enter, remove the mana, and temporarily seal the area. Eve: You should rest, Rena. Rena: Alright... I'm sorry everyone... Allegro: Oh,you are... Are you not moving with the others? Ain: Yes, Mr. Secretary. I'm a priest, I have my own things to do. Allegro: Ah, right... I'm sorry. We should have guarded it more closely... Ain: Rather than showing regret, let's deal with the current situation. Now, Now, can I ask a few more questions about what's happening here? Allegro: Of course! What do you want to know? Ain: The Demon Army is bigger than I thought. Were there any signs before their invasion? Allegro: Hm... There weren't any reports of seeing a demon. Feita was always heavy with demonic energy, so we've encountered monsters that were affected by it. Allegro: Now that I think about it, there was a person who warned that monsters were sighted more frequently. Allegro: But this all happened before we were able to file a report and receive proper reinforcements. Ain: (This was their usual number of people taking care of this place... The Goddess would be devastated.) Allegro: I... I am sorry that I wasn't of much help! Ain: (There's nothing to find here...) Ain: I am planning on going to the Chapel. Is there any thing I should be aware of? Allegro: Yes, the chapel is overflowing with demonic energy at the moment. It used t be a place where we'd collect sacred El energy to deliver to the Altar of Dedication at the top of the shrine... Ain: Did demons come out from the chapel? Allegro: No... The witness account point to the demons coming from the Altar of Dedication at the top of the tower. Allegro: But we can't discount the possibility that the demonic energy flowing inside the chapel is being fed to the Altar of Dedication. Ain: Sending demonic energy to the altar...? Then we must hurry. If it's left like that, then... Ain: Sigh, I was headed there anyway. I'll go take a look.

Main Ain [Feita Main Base] Lento: You're back, and you've retrieved the Dark El. Thank you. Raven: ... How is Rena? Eve: Aisha is taking care of her. She seems fine for now, but she needs more rest. Allegro: The corrupt gem... Demonic energy tends to exhaust the minds of noble beings nearby. Allegro: You should also stay away. Leave the purification to me. Elsword: I feel like something's lodging in my chest whenever I'm near it. Please hurry. [Inside the Underground Chapel] Ain: (... This place is thick with demonic energy. It's distasteful and repulsive.) Ain: (It's filled with demonic energy now, but it used to be full of El energy.) Ain: (If there's any bit of El energy left, I can read it's memories...) Ain: (Ah... The sculptures in the chapel... They are sculptures of angels.) Ain: (Angels do not actually have shape or form. What were they imagining when they built these sculptures?) Ain: (... No, I don't have time for this. I need to get rid of the demons inside the chapel as quickly as possible...) Ain: (This statue... I feel a faint presence of El energy.) Ain: (Let's read its memory.) Berthe: To think, the El shard can be used to amplify demonic energy... Ain: (The El shard? What are they trying to...) Berthe: Dark El... with this, I will put an end to Elrios! Kuahahahahaha! Ain: (How dare he... What on earth are they doing to the sacred El Shard...?) Ain: ...Demon bastards... laying their hands on the El Shard... I can't forgive this...) ???: Ah, are you alright? El Lady: I'm fine... I felt a little dizzy... Ain: (...? Is this... a memory from before El explosion? She's the 'El Lady'.) ???: You've been overworking. Why don't you take a rest... El Lady: No, I can't... Demonic energy has become stronger than here. I need to keep up. El Lady: Other masters are working hard, too... ???: What if you collapse... ???: Your health comes first. For the sake of Elrios. El Lady: ... Yes, I know. El Lady: Carrying out my duties for the El and for the Elrios. That's the reason the El Lady exists. El Lady: For that, I'm prepared to do... anything. ???: ...It's the time. Please keep it up for Elrios. Ain: (The sacred duty of the El Lady was given by the Goddess. But...) Ain: (Did the El Explosion truly happen because of a wrong decision made by one El Master as legends say...?) Ain: (...!) Ain: (... Agh, This... El is tainted black with demonic energy...! Was this the cause of the abnormal concentration of demonic energy?!) Ain: (Digusting. No, it's more than disgusting...) Ain: (... I must destroy it. This filthy demons...) Allegro: Ah, Ain...? Are you okay? You don't look well... Ain: ...? This if Feita? When did I move... Ain: (I lose consciousness. What happened...? I've never felt this way before...) Allegro: Did you check out the chapel? That gem inside your hand... It feels ominous. Ain: (When did I pick this up? I have no memory of it...) Ain: It's an El shard tainted with demonic energy... a Dark El. The Amethyst created it. I believe this is the cause of the demonic energy that spread throughout the shrine. Allegro: Dark El...! I see. It exudes strong demonic energy. Allegro: Is this what's making you go pale? The corrupt gem... Demonic energy tends to exhaust the minds of noble beings nearby. Allegro: It might have affected you negatively, since you're a priest. First, I will attempt to purify this demonic energy. Ain: (I can purify demonic energy myself without needing someone lending a hand, but...) Ain: It's so filthy... I don't want to touch or go near it, so please remove it quickly. Ain: (Better keep my distance. If I get near it... I have no idea what I would become...) Lento: Thank you for your cooperation. Now that we've retrieved the Dark El, demons inside the chapel should have been weakened. But there's no guarantee that this is the only Dark El... Lento: So we will investigate the chapel. Ain: (... I will be headed to the chapel again.)

Main Ain Raven: ... Damn it. My arm refuses to move. Is this also because of demonic energy? Eve: ... Lento: We can now go to the top of the Shrine. The scouts and Feita Guards have already entered the premises. Elsword: That's our signal. Everyone ready? Raven: ... Yes. Aisha: Hm... I want to be more prepared before we enter the shrine. The higher we go, the more demons there will be, and we can easily be isolated. Eve: What did you have in mind, Aisha? Aisha: Here, a protection spell. This shold block some of the evil energy that flows from demons and the Dark El. That should help you somewhat, Rena. Rena: Thanks. I do feel better now, but I was worried it might get worse once I enter the tower. Elsword: ...? Eve: Elsword, are you looking for something? Elsword: No... Uh, wasn't there somebody just now? Raven: Lento went back to where Feita Guards are staying. Elsword: No, not him. Weird... Didn't somebody say they had to go to the chapel? Eve: No... Nobody said something like that. Aisha: You must be imagining things. Stop saying weird things and sit down. Elsword: O, ok. Elsword: (Weird. I swear I heard someone...) Raven: ... Damn it. My arm refuses to move.

Main Ain Allegro: The situation is much worse than we have anticipated. There is an enormous... what looks to be a dimension gate on top of the Altar of Dedication. Aisha: They opened a dimension gate using the demonic energy from the Underground Chapel? Allegro: This is the first time I'm hearing it as well. I knew there were random gates that opened because the Black Forest is an unstable area... But I didn't think you could force one open... Eve: A dimension gate that size... if left open, the entirety of Elrios will soon fall into demon hands. We must stop that from happening. Lento: ... This will be the final battle. Please take account for what's happening around the dimension gate. I will command the soldiers in preparation for the battle. Allegro: The situation is much worse than we have anticipated.

I'm okay. Aisha: Mmm... Doesn't really seem so... Rena: By the way, why were you gone without a word, Ain? Elsword: Yeah! I was really worried. Ain: ... That... I'm not sure. Ain: (When I came back around, I was fighting demons. And my body was disappearing...) Ain: (I lost composure... This isn't like me.) Aisha: Meh... Ain, you weirdo!) Ain: (... I used up too much energy. I can barely keep myself up.) Ain: (Since I can't fight... I need to stop intervening and regain my power...) Elsword: Ain, take a rest and join us later if it's too much. We'll cut the path first. Ain: ... Then, please do.
Quest Completion Dialogue
Main Ain [Altar of Dedication] Berthe: How dare you! To think I, Berthe, the Commander of the White-Ghost Army, would be humiliated like this... I won't forget this...!! Elsword: Big talk from a Thief who tried to steal the El Shard from my town! Go back to whatever demon world you came from! Berthe: El Shard...? I see, you're the boy... Now I know what was bothering on the back of my mind. Elsword: Wh... What are you talking about? Berthe: This War will be long. It would be interesting to watch you fall into despair. Let's see how much of the truth you can handle... Kahahahaha! Aisha: Hooray! The dimension gate is closed! I'm a little disappointed this had nothing to do with my ring... Aisha: But still! We managed to defeat all those demons! Don't ever think about invading us again! Lento: Thank you all, I can already sense the demonic energy receding from Feita. Allegro: Once the Dark El and Berthe was gone... The dimension gate at the altar also closed. Allegro: It wouldn't have been possible without you. We owe you a great debt. Thank you. Lento: That's right. All of Feita will be the witness to your great accomplishment. Elsword: Now I'm this much close to Sis... Rena: I'm glad it worked out. Right, Eve? Eve: Yes, I am glad as well. But... Eve: I don't think Adam would have built a massive Nasod army... for an invasion of this size. Rena: It seems odd, doesn't it? But... maybe it's because we managed to stop it before the problem escalated? Eve: I hope so. In any case, it's a job well done. Rena: Anyway, the reinforcements from Velder never arrived, did it? I wonder if something went wrong? Allegro: There are procedures that must be followed when soldiers are deployed from the capital, so it's possible this is merely a matter of bureaucracy. Allegro: We also managed to retrieve the shrine faster than expected thanks to your help. Besides, even if the reinforcements arrive later, they can help with restorations. Eve: Ah... The shrine was damaged because of the battle. Is that what the restorations are for? Allegro: Yes. We also need to remove the seal that was casted to stop the demons. Aisha: I'll help. I want to take a last look at the structure of the shrine and the different relics. Elsword: That's your main purpose, isn't it? Aisha: Hmph, so what! Shrine of Dedication is a historic site from the Elrian Kingdom era. And it's hard to get a permit to enter because it's in the middle of the Black Forest. Aisha: I'm going to take a good look at it when I have the chance! Allegro: Thank you, this will be a great help. Ain: (Well... Let's stop the intervention...) Ain: (...? It won't stop... Why? Is it because of the pendulum?) Ain: (What a plight to be in! I have no choice but...to go with Elsword...) (STEP, STEP, STEP) Ain: (It's very faint, but I can read the memory of the remaining El energy.) Ain: (The Glitter Elite and Demon Commander... The Demon Commander is the one that I saw in Ruben.) Ain: (I should have finished the job back then...if I only knew then that he would end up here causing more trouble.) Ain: (Is the pendulum not working yet...?) Ain: (I need to break the pendulum to be able to use my power without limitation. But...it takes a lot of time for a broken pendulum to recover.) Ain: (On the other hand, I need the pendulum completely recovered... in order to intervene, or stop the intervention.) Ain: (That means I shouldn't have broken the pendulum unless it was absolutely necessary... I was impatient.) Ain: (...! ... I feel there's a strong energy of the Dark El... Where is it coming from?) Ain: (It was placed here... What were demons planning to do...) Ain: (I feel less of the Dark El in this place. A little bit of the El energy remains.) Ain: (... Did they use the Dark El to open a dimension gate?) Ain: (Because of the El Search Party's efforts... I guess the demons are losing momentum.) Ain: (The closer I get to the shrine, the stronger demonic presence can be felt.) Ain: (It's not just a few of them... Demon bastards... they must be prepared for a full-on invasion.) Ain: (Besides... I feel the strong energy of the demon from Ruben.) Ain: (... There's no time to lose. Better hurry.) [Altar of Dedication] Berthe: How dare you!

Berthe: This War will be long. It would be interesting to watch you fall into despair. Let's see how much of the truth you can handle... Kahahahaha! Ain: (What does it mean? Truth...?) Ain: (There's something... about Elsword? As expected... Elsword is...) Aisha: Hooray! The dimension gate is closed! I'm a little disappointed this had nothing to do with my ring... Aisha: But still!

Ain: I'll follow you, since the corrupt El remaining inside the shrine will also need to be purified.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
Raven: ... Lento: May I have a moment? Raven: Sure, anything else I can help you with? Lento: It's not because there's a problem, I merely wanted to thank you for the assistance as a member of the Feita Guards. Lento: Will you be headed to Velder next, Raven Cronwell. Raven: ... You know about me? Lento: I owe my life to Sir Cronwell. I also met you when you were in Velder. This was when you were in the Crow Mercenaries. Raven: Ah, is that so... ... I'm sorry but I don't recall. Lento: That's understandable. I was a trainee back then, and it was only for a brief moment. Raven: ... Watch out. Nothing good will come out from acting familiar with me. I'm sure you're already aware. Lento: I do not believe you have committed treason. Lento: Are you planning on heading to Velder to clear your name? Raven: ... I'm no longer the man I used to be. Raven: Have you heard anything about the Cronwell family? Sir Cronwell's position must have been impacted by my actions... But I haven't heard anything. Lento: I can't say he escaped unscathed from the accusations, but Sir Cronwell is the hero of the kingdom. Lento: Lat I heard, he was able to avoid any persecution after returning his title. Raven: I see... Raven: ... Too many people have come into harm's way because of me. Raven: One day, I will clear my name. Not for me, but for my fallen comrades. Raven: I have no intention to return. Lento: I understand. If there's anything I can do to help, let me knoew.
Quest Completion Dialogue
Main Ain [Few Hours Later, Near Feita] Lento: ... What? Velder? Surely you're mistaken, Allegro. Allegro: There was a reason why no reinforcements were sent... Raven: How can that be? Velder Kingdom houses the Velder Guards, an infamous group of elite soldiers. Raven: There's also the Royal Guards that protect the royal family. Velder would not have been defeated so easily. Allegro: Well... They say an unknown army of monsters appeared deep within the kingdom... Raven: Within the kingdom? Eve: ... Is this situation similar to Feita's? Elsword: What about sis... The Red Knights? What happened to the Red Knights? Allegro: It doesn't say... But I believe the Red Knights are outside of Velder, serving another mission. Elsword: Thank goodness... Aisha: Hmmmm? Elsword: ... Tsk, it's all because my Sis wasn't there. If she was there, she would have taken down the demons, no problem! Aisha: Your sis? Elsword: ... Raven: Lento, how are the soldiers? Even with Feita's situation resolved, they weren't in any shape to be sent out, if I recall. Lento: We have just enough men to guard Feita without exhausting our resources too much. Raven: There are many things left to be considered, but, if you can, spare as many men as you can. Lento: Understood. I will make sure we can leave right away. Allegro: Velder troops are staying at the outskirts. I will give you their exact location so you can find them. [Few Hours Later, Near Feita] Lento: ... What? Velder? Surely you're mistaken, Allegro.
