*Seria: Oh wow! That Shusui!
*Seria: How persistent!
 	
*Paris: I know. I feel like he might show up again...
*Paris: I'm starting to understand the fear that Mora was talking about...
 	
*Lugina: !
*Lugina: Since you didn't finish him off like you were supposed to, he's getting all arrogant!
*Lugina: Make sure to take care of him next time!
*Lugina: Got that?!
 	
*Paris: Hold on!
*Paris: Look...
 	
*Seria: What is that...
 	
*Paris: It's so terrible... It looks like someone went mad here...
 	
*Paris: But all these fluids that have been splattered everywhere. Are they Melord's?
 	
*Lugina: Well, he definitely came here. The issue is where he is now...
 	
*Seria: These fluids look like they've been splattered all over the place...
 	
*Paris: Finding their origin will prove difficult.
 	
*Lugina: Tsk, this'll be a pain, but we've got no choice.
 	
*Lugina: Hey, you guys.
*Lugina: He's definitely not here anymore.
*Lugina: Let's look for the passage he took out of here.
 	
*Seria: Don't go giving commands.
*Seria: We don't need you stating the obvious.
 	
*Paris: ...... *Sigh*
 	
*Lugina: Tsk, well then hurry up and get to work.
 	
*Lugina: , don't you laze around, either!
 	
*???: Looks like everyone left ya behind.
 	
*Karl: Hey.
 	
*Karl: Haha. What's with the funny face? I just wanna talk. Just the two of us.
 	
*Karl: Anyway, it seems like you guys are really struggling out here.
*Karl: The poison is really getting to Seria and Lugina. I wonder if it can be neutralized without the Goddess.
 	
*Karl: What, me?
 	
*Karl: Haha. I may have grown a bit resistant to it, sure.
 	
*Karl: Well, now I'd like you to do something for me. It would be too hard for Paris.
*Karl: ......
*Karl: ..., listen.
*Karl: First I wanna say that I'm neither an impostor, nor being controlled.
*Karl: I only told you to leave Ishgria after I really thought about it.
*Karl: ...... But I'll be honest with you, I'm still not sure if I'm doing the right thing or not.
*Karl: That's why I wanted some time.
*Karl: Because if I hadn't said anything at all, I knew you'd just keep trying to catch up with me.
*Karl: ......
 	
*Karl: Hmm, it might've been better if I had just kept all this stuff to myself.
 	
*Karl: Ah, sounds like someone is coming back.
 	
*Karl: . Just trust me on this, okay?
*Karl: I'll always be your friend.
*Karl: That will never change.
 	
*Paris: , what's wrong? You look dazed.
 	
*Paris: Anyway, Lugina found a secret passage that he thinks Melord may have escaped through.
*Paris: So, let's go. Seria will be very unhappy with you if you take too long.
 	
*Paris: We can't just let her sit there listening to Lugina's boasting either...
