Story/Chapter 41: Difference between revisions

*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Add! Why... Why did you activate the portal?! I thought we were going to handle the situation together! I wouldn't have agreed to your plan if I knew we were just going to leave them there! We could have helped them!!''

*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''Wake up, will you? He would have shred you to pieces! He would have shred all of us to pieces, if we blindly followed you along! You need to face the facts and grow up!''

*{{StoryIcon|DB}} '''Add:''' ''Have you all gone mad? Since when did we worry about demons? Weren't you the one who was complaining about how they invaded Elrios? Are we all friends now? We didn't even know them for that long, and you'd trust so readily?''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''... No. He's not injured, so there's no use waiting for him to regain consciousness. The El energy in his body is much weaker. I believe that is the reason why he fails to wake up.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''There's nothing I can do at the moment. What he needs right now, is treatment from Hernia... The El Lady.''

*{{StoryIcon|Denif}} '''Denif:''' ''That may be an instance of the Goddess, or the El's Will possessing you, knowing that Hernia was unable to fulfill her duty. Furthermore, you do not show any symptoms that an El Lady usually displays. Which leads to the conclusion that, at the moment, it is more accurate to state that you are a possible candidate for the El Lady. I do understand the desire to help your friends, but you do not have the necessary abilities to know what Ain requires.''

*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''Then we should head to Elysion to meet the El Lady. I too, require maintenance from sustained damage from our last battle. It is possible to conduct a self-reparation, but... I will be able to recover faster with Adrian's help.''

*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''Thank you for your concern, but as you are well aware, we have strayed far from our original plan. We have hypothesized that the Dark El acts similarly to the El in the Demon Realm. Based on that hypothesis, we devised a method to track the Dark El using the gem from Varnimyr as it exuded similar energy, but...''

*{{StoryIcon|CEs}} '''Eve:''' ''But thanks to the gem, we were able to return to Elrianode. I am worried about Ain's condition, but it seems that can be resolved in Elysion, which is a relief. With all of this in mind, I wish to hurry to Elysion. Since we are in Elrios, we should do whatever we can to prepare ourselves better.''

*{{StoryIcon|KE}} '''Elsword:''' ''Ain will be fine. Everyone should rest. And... Let's think together what we should do moving forward.''

*{{StoryIcon|RaS}} '''Laby:''' ''Uh huh! Laby and Nisha helped out a lot! Oh... But... We didn't help Calonne's friend and Nichel.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''My, I guess magicians do think alike! You nailed it in one! Before, we could open a gate, albeit an unorthodox way, using spells. But right now... Let's just say that the seal, is now properly sealed. Which is why we weren't able to help you right away, so we sent little lady here, to help.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''If you must, I won't stop you. Rosso is probably in the training grounds outside, near the El Tower. I saw him train there occasionally. Something about losing something in the Demon Realm? He said he needed to control his power more acutely to make up for it.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''But then, Rosso learned that we could no longer open the passage, and just... clammed up. We couldn't really ask why... But I suspect Rosso doesn't remember what happened...''

*{{StoryIcon|DyB}} '''Rena:''' ''Thank goodness Add isn't here. You really don't hold back your punch, Aisha.... I'm worried about those who went to Elysion.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''Calm down. No need to crowd the guy. Besides, it's not like you're all in tip-top condition. Junior was going to go anyway, so why don't you sit back and relax. You can't go to the Demon Realm in your condition even if we manage to open the portal.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ish}} '''Lu:''' ''... At least we'll be doing something. Besides, even if the method he used is no longer feasible, there might be another way to apply it, as long as we understand how it was done.''

*{{StoryIcon|ES}} '''Elesis:''' ''You're right. We encountered a powerful demon that invaded Elrios before. If we don't stop him, Elrios will be in danger again. And we've met people we want to help. We need anything that could help us save them.''

*{{StoryIcon|Chv}} '''Ciel:''' ''We did help with the restoration of Elrianode, and fought with Henir's Order. Not to mention fighting with you. I believe that should give us some right to ask you for information.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rosso3}} '''Rosso:''' ''Don't be obtuse. So you helped out a little while I was gone, so what? Protecting the El is still under the jurisdiction of the El Masters and the Priestesses. Outsiders should stay out of our business.''

*{{StoryIcon|Rosso3}} '''Rosso:''' ''An El Master is responsible for the safety of the El. I heard that the El is unstable at the moment. Which means that finding the Dark El, thus stabilizing the El is also one part of a Master's duty. Sigh... What more do you want? I told you everything I can, so why don't you get lost. Oh, and give us all the information you have on that demon. If we see him, we'll take care of it.''

*{{StoryIcon|AS}} '''Aisha:''' ''R, Rena?! Is Rena going to be ok?''

*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''Let me take a look. Hm... Just as I thought from the exterior. It's junk. It can't catch any signal that's too far away. The reason why we're only hearing static is probably because we're beyond the working parameters.''

*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''Hm... Reverse tracking may work... If we decide to use wavelengths, there's good potential even with this piece of junk. This method have the least limitations in the kind of medium we use, and can cover most distance.''

*{{StoryIcon|Zero}} '''Zero:''' ''And according to the hypothesis we made last time, the El rejects influence from the Demon Realm. Which means, the power of El might not be ideal to reach the Demon Realm. But it's worth a try. Didn't the demons use a dimensional portal using the El or something? Which means it's technically possible.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''I have a feeling that I shouldn't answer this question for my own good... Well, if you define the properties of the Wind El in one word... I guess, it's movement.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''Mmhm. High to low, hot to cold... When that movement meets fire, it swallows everything in its wake, and when it meets water, it raises great waves. I guess I could say, that if you're trying to use an elemental El to connect to the Demon Realm, the wind might have a slightly better chance of succeeding than the other elements.''

*{{StoryIcon|Ventus}} '''Ventus:''' ''Mmhm- Well, I guess you did help us out a lot, and looks like I'm the only option there is. Then let us find a place, Hm? I shouldn't really use my powers near the El Tower.''
