*Divine Dragon: Ughh...!!
*Divine Dragon: I am...!!
*Divine Dragon: Ughh...!!
*Divine Dragon: *Roooooaaaarrr!!*
 	
*Seria: Argh... What is this thing? It just came out of nowhere and attacked us...
 	
*Karl: I don't know, but...with this much power...it can't be...?!
 	
*Tilith: Yes...there's no mistaking it. This is...
 	
*???: Hehehe... I didn't expect to run into the Divine Dragon in a place like this...

*Seria: Bertz!!
 	
*Bertz: Hi, Seria. Sorry I only appeared as a projection earlier.
*Bertz: This time the real me has come to see you.
 	
*Seria: I don't care about that! What are you doing here?!
 	
*Bertz: Hehe... You must have some idea of my objective?
 	
*Bertz: To be honest, I had been prepared to venture as deeply I as I had to into this world, but...
*Bertz: ...it seems the Divine Armor's power resonated with the Divine Dragon somehow, and it came to me.
 	
*Divine Dragon: Grrr...!!
*Divine Dragon: *Roooooaarr!!*
 	
*Bertz: Not only that, but it's fought , and taken some damage...
*Bertz: This really is, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
 	
*Bertz: The Divine Dragon... True summoning power...
 	
*Bertz: That power...will be mine!!
 	
*Divine Dragon: Ugh... Grrr...!!
 	
*Lugina: Urk... What is going on?!
 	
*Reda: Bertz...!!
 	
*Bertz: Hey, Lugina, Reda...you both have good timing.
*Bertz: Well, from your perspective, I guess you're a little late.
 	
*Divine Dragon: GRRRAAAAHHH!!
 	
*Bertz: Alza Masta's power...true summoning power... If I can just get my hands on it...
*Bertz: ...Elgaia will no longer be threatened by any kind of enemy...!!
 	
*Bertz: My nightmares...would also, finally, come to an end...!!
 	
*Lugina: Why you...
 	
*???: That power...is beyond your abilities!
 	
*Bertz: Gragh...!!

*Seria: Rahnas...!!
 	
*Lugina: ...!!
 	
*Rahnas: You probably did factor my coming after you into your little plan, but...
*Rahnas: ...with your target in sight, it would seem even you get careless...
 	
*Rahnas: Now...I will have you return what you stole from me!
 	
*Bertz: Urghh...!!
 	
*Rahnas: Hmph...
 	
*Garrett: It would appear that setting a net was the thing to do.
 	
*Mel: But...the Divine Dragon is still...
 	
*Divine Dragon: *Roooaaarr...!!*
 	
*Tilith: Urgh... The Divine Dragon is regaining power...!!
 	
*Rahnas: It's heading my way, is it? That's perfect...
 	
*Rahnas: ...I will gain that power here and now!!
 	
*Karl: Ugh...he's all for this, isn't he?
 	
*Karl: What should we do, Lugina?
 	
*Lugina: ...
 	
*Reda: Lugina!!
 	
*Lugina: Uh, right...
*Lugina: ...
 	
*Lugina: Hard to imagine our situation getting any worse, but we can't let Rahnas defeat the Divine Dragon.
 	
*Lugina: So taking down Rahnas is our first priority!!
 	
*Seria: You're kidding... You're going to attack them while the Divine Dragon goes berserk like that?!
 	
*Lugina: Don't whine at me! Let's just get this done!
 	
*Raval: The Divine Dragon... Oh good, it's still here!
 	
*Sarturus: It would appear we made it just in time.
 	
*Tilith: You two...!
 	
*Sarturus: Raval, I'll restrain it!!
 	
*Raval: Right...!!
 	
*Divine Dragon: *Rooooaaarrrrrr!!*
 	
*Tilith & Seria: Eek!! Ugh...!!
 	
*Bertz & Reda: What is...this collision of power?!
 	
*Lugina & Karl: Urgh...!! Argh...!!
 	
*Rahnas: ...!!
 	
*Divine Dragon: ......
 	
*Raval: I think we've managed to get it under control...
 	
*Sarturus: Yes... Now we must return the Divine Dragon to its chambers.
*Sarturus: That is where the Holy Emperor's power remains strongest in this world.
*Sarturus: The instability will probably continue...
*Sarturus: ...but provided we don't allow ourselves to get careless, we should be able to keep the Pious Emperor's power in check.
 	
*Raval: Right.
*Raval: It looks as though those humans have scattered as well...
 	
*Sarturus: They don't seem like the kind of people who would let that stop them.
*Sarturus: In the meantime, we'll stick to our initial plan. Let us wait for them in the chambers.
 	
*Karl: Ugh...
 	
*Lugina: Urk...
 	
*Tilith: Oww...
*Tilith: Are you okay, ?
 	
*Seria: That...really didn't go well at all, did it?
*Seria: Looks like we were blown pretty far from where the Divine Dragon and those two gods were.
 	
*Reda: Yeah...
*Reda: I don't see the Abel Faction guys around anywhere either.
*Reda: They probably landed somewhere else...
 	
*Bertz: Urk...

*Seria: Bertz...!!
 	
*Karl: This is...
 	
*Karl: The wound is deep... He needs it tended to straightaway...!
 	
*Karl: Tilith, would you mind?!
 	
*Tilith: Leave it to me!!
 	
*Bertz: Argh...
 	
*Lugina: ...... Hmph, serves him right.
 	
*Seria: Lugina! Even you should know this isn't the time...!!
 	
*Bertz: Heh... Heartless as always, Lugina...
 	
*Bertz: You're not wrong, though...I have no one to blame but myself for this...
 	
*Lugina: For you to steal the Divine Armor's power and from the Abel Faction's leader no less...
*Lugina: That kind of heavy-handed tactic isn't like you.
*Lugina: Did you really want power so much?
 	
*Bertz: Yes...I did. And I do.
*Bertz: I've grown weary of watching my hometown burned to the ground in my dreams, only to wake up knowing I'm doomed to repeat it each and every night to come.
 	
*Lugina: ......
 	
*Tilith: I've treated the wound.
 	
*Seria: Is he okay now?
 	
*Tilith: I don't think your life is in danger anymore...
 	
*Tilith: But you've taken some pretty heavy damage...
*Tilith: You absolutely must take it easy and give yourself time to heal...
 	
*Bertz: ......
 	
*Lugina: Tsch... I'll take this fool and return to Elgaia...
 	
*Bertz: Lugina...
 	
*Lugina: I won't hear any complaints.
 	
*Lugina: Reda, you're coming too!
 	
*Reda: What...?! I get that Bertz needs help...
*Reda: ...but surely there's no point in us both going back to Elgaia?
*Reda: Wouldn't it be better if I stayed behind to help and the others?
 	
*Lugina: ...I have an idea. Trust me!
 	
*Reda: Understood!
 	
*Lugina: ...
*Lugina: I'll leave dealing with the Abel Faction and the Divine Dragon to you.
 	
*Lugina: You have become pretty useful.
*Lugina: Seems a perfect match to me.
 	
*Lugina: You'll never do as good a job as I could, but don't let me down!
 	
*Reda: He can't help putting up that front, even in a situation like this.
 	
*Reda: Still, , he has high hopes for you...
 	
*Reda: ...of that much I'm sure.
 	
*Reda: Hehe, don't look at me like that.
 	
*Reda: He can't help who he is, and probably does have some kind of plan in mind, but...
*Reda: ...we'll leave the rest of the matters here in this world to you.
 	
*Seria: Lugina...he really never changes, does he?
*Seria: Dragging Reda around after him, too... It must be hard for her.
 	
*Seria: Mind you, if he ever meekly started making polite requests...
*Seria: ...that would be pretty creepy.
 	
*Karl: Ha ha...maybe when he saw Bertz was going to live...
*Karl: ...he naturally reverted to his usual self in relief.
 	
*Karl: Urk...!!
 	
*Seria: Wait...!
 	
*Seria: The power of summoning has come back...?
 	
*Karl: Looks like it...
 	
*Tilith: Is it because you fought the Divine Dragon...?
 	
*Karl: Probably... Can't think of what else it would be.
 	
*Mel: ...!!
 	
*Garrett: Grh...!!
*Garrett: This is...!!
 	
*Rahnas: Hmph, it seems the power of summoning has been restored...
 	
*Rahnas: I retrieved the vessel from that little thief. Now it's just a matter of getting hold of the power to put into it...
*Rahnas: If I can just get hold of that power, I will finally be able to surpass them...
*Rahnas: Owen, Grahdens...Griff...!
