*Eriole: I-Impossible... How can you possess this much power...?
*Eriole: Argh...
 	
*Tesla: L-Lord Eriole...
 	
*Karl: ! Are you all right?!
 	
*Lugina: Ms. Seria.
*Lugina: Looks like while somebody was busy getting lost on the way here...
*Lugina: ... beat you to the punch. Literally.
 	
*Seria: Sh-Shut up!
*Seria: I just let take over for me, that's all!
 	
*Paris: Lord Eriole...
 	
*Eriole: Summoners.
*Eriole: You have made a serious mistake.
*Eriole: You've lost the opportunity the Summoners of Old had hoped for! The hope to escape the gods' rule!
 	
*Seria: What are you talking about?!
*Seria: You're the one that tried to use the gods' powers to destroy Elgaia!
 	
*Eriole: Fools...
*Eriole: We resorted to using the gods' power only once!
*Eriole: With the Four Fallen Gods defeated, and the Holy Emperor Karna Masta sealed away...
*Eriole: ...if we had just defeated Lucius, we would've been finally free of their control!
 	
*Lugina: And I guess you were planning to make yourself the new god of your dumb utopia?
 	
*Eriole: And what's wrong with that?!
*Eriole: If the strong don't rule the world will just rot away!
*Eriole: Just look at these fools!
*Eriole: Trusting me wholly, they are now in the process of awakening Karna Masta in Lizeria!
 	
*Paris: ...
 	
*Eriole: Why would we want to release a god that once sought to destroy the human race?!
*Eriole: That land has been connected to Karna Masta since the very beginning.
*Eriole: If we can feel Karna Masta's power there...
*Eriole: ...then we can prove whether or not Lucius really sealed Karna Masta away or not.
*Eriole: And without even considering that as my true aim, they went off claiming they wanted to save the world by using the Holy Emperor's power...
*Eriole: We live in a world full of idiots blessed with good pedigrees who are given high ranks without deserving them!
 	
*Paris: Grr...
 	
*Seria: I don't know anything about that, but if those with ability and skill are at the top of the food chain...
*Seria: ...then that means you're not very high up there, since you lost to us.
 	
*Eriole: Spare me your nonsense!
*Eriole: Do you have any idea of what will happen to this world after my fall?!
*Eriole: Lucius will rule over this world once again!
*Eriole: You imbeciles...
*Eriole: He never trusted humans in the first place.
*Eriole: But now that the Four Fallen Gods have been defeated and nothing else stands in his way...
*Eriole: ...as far as Lucius is concerned, humans are nothing but an obstacle when it comes to ruling the entire world.
*Eriole: Soon enough he will seal the gate that connects Elgaia to Grand Gaia.
*Eriole: And then, after he gradually regains his powers, he will finally do away with the human race...
 	
*The words of a sore loser. How pathetic.
 	
*Eriole: You're...
*Eriole: ...the Dark Figure！
 	
*Dark Figure: Summoners.
*Dark Figure: You have done well in defeating this man who defies Lord Lucius's will.
*Dark Figure: Eriole.
*Dark Figure: Did you think Lord Lucius would overlook all of your plans?
*Dark Figure: He is well aware that you were after the legacy the gods left behind in Grand Gaia.
*Dark Figure: Lord Lucius sees all.
*Dark Figure: You were under the impression that I was under your command, and used me to lead the Summoners here...
*Dark Figure: ...but you are not as smart as you think.
*Dark Figure: I had acknowledged these Summoners' power as greater than your own...
*Dark Figure: ...and set everything up to have them purge your treacherous existence.
*Dark Figure: All of your subordinates have been disposed of as well.
 	
*Eriole: Damn it all...
 	
*Dark Figure: What's wrong?
*Dark Figure: Are you ashamed of ever believing yourself above the gods?
 	
*Eriole: You dare mock me?!
*Eriole: Do you think I'll let scum like you, who betrayed humans in order to insure his own safety...
*Eriole: ...mock me as he pleases?!
 	
*Karl: Betrayed humans?
 	
*Dark Figure: ...
 	
*Eriole: Oh, did you think I wasn't aware?
*Eriole: During the great war with the gods, it was you who destroyed human hope!
*Eriole: You were the one who killed the Six Heroes!
*Eriole: Then you played dirty and erased your name from the history books!
*Eriole: It was all you, Dark Figure!
*Eriole: Or should I call you, Ark?!
 	
*Seria: He killed the Six Heroes?!
*Seria: That's impossible...
 	
*Eriole: This person murdered the Six Heroes for his own selfish ends...
*Eriole: ...and then obtained divine powers as collateral!
 	
*Ark: "Ark..."
*Ark: I haven't been called by that name for a very long time.
*Ark: However, I hope you're prepared.
*Ark: Because now that everyone here knows this information, it means that all of you must die, right here, right now.
 	
*Karl: And you think we'll just stand here with our arms crossed?
 	
*Ark: Hmph...
*Ark: Are you saying you would like a taste of the power that did away with the Six Heroes?
 	
*Seria: Wh-What's happening?!
*Seria: I can feel his already great power growing stronger and stronger...!
 	
*Lugina: Crap, this is turning out to be much more irritating than I thought...
 	
*Ark: I shall start with you.
*Ark: Die, Eriole.
 	
*Eriole: Argh...
 	
*Tesla: AHHHH!!!
 	
*Eriole: Tesla!!
*Eriole: Why?!
 	
*Tesla: Lord Eriole...
*Tesla: No, brother...
*Tesla: You can't die just yet...
*Tesla: I have no doubt that the world will one day be in need of your power...
*Tesla: So please, leave this place...
 	
*Eriole: Hold on!
*Eriole: What will I do if my dream is realized but you're not by my side to share it with me?!
*Eriole: If you leave me...
*Eriole: ...there will be no one left in this world who I can trust....
 	
*Ark: I think humans refer to this as love.
*Ark: To think that even someone like you could be capable of such an emotion.
*Ark: If that's the case, then I shall show mercy...
*Ark: ...by getting rid of you both.
 	
*Eriole: Why you...
 	
*Karl: We'll never let you get away with that!
 	
*Ark: Humans. You realize resistance is futile, do you not?
*Ark: No, humans are not the sort of creature to back down from a fight.
*Ark: Very well then.
*Ark: In that case I have no choice but to eradicate each and every one of you here!
 	
*That's as far as you go!
 	
*Seria: That voice!
*Seria: Tilith!
 	
*Tilith: ...
 	
*Tilith: Ark, return to Bariura immediately.
*Tilith: Lord Lucius is calling for you.
 	
*Ark: ...
*Ark: Understood. I shall return to Bariura.
*Ark: I'll leave the rest up to you.
 	
*Tilith: ...
 	
*Seria: Tilith, I'm so glad you're okay!
 	
*Seria: I was worried about you!
 	
*Tilith: ...
 	
*Seria: Tilith?
 	
*Tilith: , you who have defeated the Four Fallen Gods... 
*Tilith: ...and your Summoner companions, Lord Lucius would like a word with you all.
*Tilith: So you too should head to Bariura immediately.
*Tilith: He shall grant you an audience there.
 	
*Seria: Huh? W-Wait, what does that mean?
*Seria: Hey, Tilith, what's going on here?
 	
*Tilith: ...
 	
*Seria: Wait!
*Seria: Tilith!
*Seria: Answer me, Tilith!!
 	
*Seria: ...
 	
*Paris: ...
 	
*Eriole: ...
 	
*Lugina: Tsk, what the hell is going on here?
*Lugina: That goddess usually never shuts up, and this time she barely opened her mouth.
 	
*Lugina: Hey, Eriole!
*Lugina: This is not the time for you to be sitting pretty now, is it?!
*Lugina: If you don't get her treated soon...
*Lugina: ....there won't be anything else you can do to save this lady.
 	
*Eriole: I don't have to hear that from the likes of you...
*Eriole: I will save Tesla myself, you'll see.
*Eriole: I'll save her no matter what...
*Eriole: And you, you best be ready.
*Eriole: Once our wounds have healed, I shall take your lives with my own two hands.
*Eriole: And the life of that traitor as well!
 	
*Karl: They're gone...
*Karl: Well, Paris, what are you gonna do now?
 	
*Paris: I-I...
 	
*Seria: Paris!
*Seria: Since you owe us for bringing you all the way here, then return the favor!
 	
*Paris: Huh?!
 	
*Seria: I'm going to Bariura to look for Tilith!
*Seria: So lend me a hand, will ya?!
 	
*Lugina: This one's already made a full come-back...
 	
*Karl: Ha ha ha, that's Seria for ya!
 	
*Karl: Paris, I feel the same way.
*Karl: Why don't you come to Bariura with us?
*Karl: I have a bad feeling about all of this, but we have to find out what's happening with the Goddess.
*Karl: Isn't that right, ?
 	
*Paris: Understood.
 	
*Paris: No, if anything, I'm the one requesting yet another favor.
 	
*Paris: Please take me to Bariura with you!
*Paris: I want to have a word with Lord Lucius, that man called "Ark," and with Lady Tilith as well!
 	
*Seria: Thanks, Paris.
 	
*Seria: And you, Lugina? What are you gonna do?
 	
*Lugina: Well, I can't very well pass up the chance to speak directly to a mythical god, now can I?
*Lugina: When my exploits become legend, this story will be one of the best ones to be included.
 	
*Karl: Ha ha ha. It'll be a great help having you with us.
 	
*Karl: And you, ? Guess I don't really have to ask, do I?
*Karl: All right then! It's settled!
*Karl: Let's head to Bariura to meet with Lord Lucius and the Goddess!
 	
*Seria: Tilith...
*Seria: I won't let things end like this... Not a chance.
