「Do you like reading books? There's plenty in the library not too far from here. I'll let my friend bring you there. 」

Oblivion shook his head and smiled, holding tightly onto his blue cover book that has a heart-shape glass with a title named, "Glass Soul". Around the glass heart is a blue scarf alongside a star on the end of it. 

「Oh? What is the interesting book you're holding? I haven't seen that before. May I take a look at it? 」

Oblivion shook his head and told her that they didn't want to. He wanted to keep the book to read for himself and read the whole thing on their free time.

「Well, may I take a look at it when you're done? 」

He paused... He then nodded before walking away and continuing to read the "Glass Soul".

「It's time for you to continue their journey. Remember to reach the CORE at the end of this. At the moment, they're in the Autumn Ruins. You're unable to communicate with them but you're free to do so whenever they fall asleep. 」

「Good luck... 」

◇ ELDER-RAIN CORE ◇

[] Memory 1.5: Autumn Ruins []

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins C

「The vessel walked into the next area of the ruins, founding themselves in a room with two paths and an edge. Both sides seemed to be well lit which means the path is forked. However, they could travel to both side if they wanted. In front of them is an edge where the bottom leads to the dark bottom. Perhaps to the lower layer. Jumping down from up here might lead to injuries, speaking from the vessel's memories during the Glowing Ruins. 」

「Which way could they go? Left or right. Both sides looked the same though they probably should head right first. Which, they ended up doing so as the right path is mostly the right way. At least they hope so. If not, they could always go back to the left. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins D-2

「As they traveled through the room, they noticed some large rocks grouped up in the left corner of the area. Not only that but there's seemed to be an odd-looking cat on top of it, staring at a green sludge on the ground near the walks. 」

「They went over to check it out but suddenly the sludge noticed them and formed a rounded slime shape creature that bounces away, making a sound of a bouncy ball. The cat on the rock seemed relief before they hopped down and noticed the vessel. The black eyes stared at them in contrast the white fur with tan and brown spots. 」

「Both of them stared at each other. The cat creature had top hat on the head and bandages over the mouth. After a while, the creature walked toward the vessel with two large legs and without arms as well. Strange. 」

◇ Entering Self-Defense State ◇

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「This signaled that the cat is hostile. Not sure why since the vessel had gotten the sludge slime away. Regardless, they will have to protect themselves. Of the bat, a [Check] on the creature's information. 」

[] Tokyo Tat // A Top hat cat that can't speak either. She seemed to be distracted by something else. // No Resistant, 0% A.A.P (Average Attack Power) []

◇ Tokyo Tat's Turn◇

「Tokyo Tat slowly waddled toward the vessel before she bumped head with their legs. However, it did no damage whatsoever. She stepped back and looked up before jumping on a nearby boulder. 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「The vessel was confused for the moment. Was this creature trying to tell them something since she was so harmless to them? Not sure, the vessel attempted to [Purify] the cat but when the flash occurs, the top hat on Tokyo Tat's head floated upward and quickly absorb the light which in turn, prevented the purification performed by them. 」

「The top hat and landed back on her head which she had to nod a few times to adjust the hat to its original spot. 」

「It made the vessel confused as this was the first time the [Purify] doesn't work properly. What is that special hat she has? Whatever it is, the vessel doesn't have any idea and taking the hat from her might be mean. 」

◇ Tokyo Tat's Turn◇

「The cat just stared at them before looking away, ignoring their present entirely. A cat that engaged to hurt the vessel and now she wants to ignore them. What an odd creature of the ruins. At least they have no aura of prejudice toward them. 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「Since using [Purify] wouldn't work against Tokyo Tat, their only option is in the [Action]. However, they seemed more puzzles as the only option available is [Leave]. It seemed that the vessel has to leave the cat alone. 」

「They sighed and went away from the cat, leaving her alone for now and continue on with their journey. 」

「Tokyo Tat just watched them go ahead then proceeded to sit on the boulder. All they wanted to do is be left alone for now. From the sludge slime and from the vessel as well. Peace and quiet for the top hat cat. 」

◇ Self-Defense State Completed ◇

「What a strange encounter. The vessel walked and turned a corner to notice a large spot of green moss near the entrance to the next area. One last more thing to check before moving on since the moss stands out from the usually gray, orange, and brown coloration of the Autumn Ruins. 」

「They went over and leaned forward, curious about the green plant. 」

<> Interact <> Green Moss

「A green plant attached to the very corner of the wall, and closer inspection, it's dark green with a bit of greenish orange around the edges. It smelled like herbs you would put in food like a seasoning. It has a nice aroma for something that is just moss. 」

「And now the most important question is: Is the moss edible? The vessel doesn't know but it is a plant, so they took some off the wall and observed it. 」

[] Green Moss // Moss from the wall. It's potent with magical energy and it makes the user feel a bit uncomfortably calming. // Heals 100 Mana, Reduce Movement Speed by 10% until Encounter Ends. []

「It seemed edible, but they worried about the side effect and it's not the most appealing food either. However, it shall provide plenty of healing, so they placed it in their [Inventory]. It's time to move on from the moss. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins E-2

「This is the first. When they entered to here, there's a stone staircase which leads to the next area. The first encounter with a stair. Not only that, there's also a gravestone in the middle of the place along with grassless dirt that surrounded it. This room is quite odd since the floor were all grassy and green with a hint of ants skittering around. 」

「They hope they don't step on any of those little critters. It would make them feel guilty :( 」

<> Interact <> Gravestone

「The gravestone has no name but instead have a small deer headband placed in front of it, surrounded by a ring of orange, red, and purple flowers. Despite not having a name, there's also a small description on it that reads, "You were a kind girl. I wish we can become friends. You show me the light. I wish I can do the same." 」

「The vessel felt a bit saddened by the message and closed their eyes for a moment of silent for the dead. 」

「After a minute passed, they opened their eyes and went toward the staircase, leaving the room as it is and heading up toward the next location. 」

「But before they were able to, they jumped off to the side and landed on the grass as they noticed a light green slime ball heading toward their way. A huge ball bounced off the wall before turning into a slime creature when landing on the nature's ground. It was the sludge from before! 」

◇ Entering Self-Defense State ◇

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「The slime's face began to form, and they could see a cute smiley face on it. It seemed quite happy and also a bit hostile as it has this urge to bounce toward the vessel without any thought of good morals. 」

「The vessel goes into a stance to prepare for the slime. They [Check] the happy bouncy creature first. 」

[] Green Slime // Level 1. This green slime loves to bounce as well as eat MOSS. // No Resistant, 15% A.A.P (Average Attack Power) []

◇ Green Slime's Turn◇

「The slime jumped onto the wall before it bounced and head toward the vessel like a projectile. Due to how slow the bounce, they had an easy chance to dodge as once the slime landed on the ground, the grass stopped it from bouncing again. Would've been annoying the floor was stone like in the other area. 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「The vessel checked observed how bouncy the slime is and they got an idea of what to do! They [Bounce] by jumping up and down on the grass, showing the slime that they too can bounce! 」

「The slime felt happy and jumped up and down as well, following along with the vessel to the point where they're both in sync. Boing! Boing! Boing! 」

◇ Green Slime is now Perfectly Vulnerable! ◇

◇ Green Slime's Turn◇

「The slime gotten too excited that they began to bounce around, hitting the grass than to the walls and back onto the grass, repeated a few times. The jumping power of this creature amazed them as they able to even get off the grass while still moving around in high speed to the point that they collided against them. 」

「The slime gotten too excited that they began to bounce around, hitting the grass than to the walls and back onto the grass, repeated a few times. The jumping power of this creature amazed them as they able to even get off the grass while still moving around in high speed to the point that they collided against them. 」

◇ -15% Mana ◇ 85% / 100% Mana ◇

「The slime landed on the ground and looked up at the vessel, wanting to do more! 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「They commenced the purification process on the slime, using [Purify] to get the creature to be passive toward them. 」

◇ +100% Purity ◇ 100% / 100% Purity ◇

◇ Self-Defense State Completed ◇

「Green Slime bounced away as it's now very friendly to the vessel that it realized jumping around too fast might hurt them. The vessel mentally wished them a fair well on where they're going. 」

「Come to think of it, there's an edge in an area they passed a while ago. They wonder if the creature would be safe and not accidentally jump into there. They didn't want to check on it since they're long gone and catching up would prove useless. And besides, the slime could get back up if they wanted to. 」

「Regardless, they went back up the stairs to the next area. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins F-2

「When they entered into here, there seemed to be a statue with blue glow underneath it. The statue being a dog instead of the blue cat as the other one. When they look around, there's fireflies all around and a circle tile right in front of them. However, there's the path forward with nothing blocking the way meaning this puzzle is optional. 」

「However, there is also a locked wooden door that is placed in front of the diamond tile. With curiosity, the vessel would have to do complete this in order to access the mysterious room unlocked by this puzzle. 」

「Same mechanics as before. Move the statues on the platform and what seem to be orange fireflies now instead. The vessel determined and by themselves, they planned out their movement on the tiles. 」

「They do wish someone would see them accomplished. So, they thought of you. 」

★ Note: Here's another optional puzzle. There's only one Movable Square but three Blue Deaths. Blue Deaths can overlap each other so in mind of that. Good luck! ★

「This puzzle seemed a bit complicated, but the fireflies do seem to overlap when they're on top of each other before going back to their original position. Having to deal with one statue isn't that bad but the number of fireflies is annoying. At least the first one near the circle tile was easy to ignore. 」

「Solution: Up, Right, Up, Up, Left, Down, Left, Up, Right, Right, Right. 」

「After stepping on the diamond tile when the statue pushed onto its blue pressure plate, the door opened wide by itself followed with a loud pop of blue confetti! The puzzle been completed, and the reward is entering into the room behind the door. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins F-2 // Red Puzzle Room

「Upon entering the room, there seemed to be another set of puzzles however they're needed to be completed to have access to another door. This time, the statue in the room is a red cat and not only that, there's also a wooden sign on the wall. 」

<> Interact <> Wooden Sign

「It reads, "You're halfway done! If you are reading this sign, this means you be smart! I made this puzzle room for fun since no one is using this. So, if you managed to complete this room, there's a reward behind that door! Have fun and I believe in you! Your friendly neighbor, the Wendigo Slime." 」

「The vessel somehow felt glad there's more puzzle now. Especially when they're fully sure it's made by the same person, Windi. Only she made these types of puzzles and also the writing on the sign too. 」

「Just like many times they did this; they'll do it again. 」

★ Note: Keep in mind that you can go backward if you wish. There's no harm in doing so. From Left back to Right, Down back to Up, etc. ★

「This one became a little tricky for the vessel since one of the movements required them to go backward. A hopped forward before hopping back to the tile they were just on. After that part, the rest of the puzzle was easy for them. A push of the red statue and onto the diamond tile. Easy! 」

「Solution: Right, Right, Right, Down, Up, Up, Right, Down, Right, Right. 」

「The door opened wide for them to progress to the final room. Two puzzles, first one being the blue and the second being the red. Now, they're curious what could be in the last room. What reward has awaited them. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins F-2 // Mysterious Room

「This room has only one light source and that's a singular lantern placed on a wooden table. The whole place itself was quite small and tidy, not big enough for another puzzle but enough to have something inside. 」

「The vessel glanced around but the table seemed to be the most interesting part of the room. There's a piece of paper, an ink pen besides it, and some sort of shiny trinket placed on top of it. But that's about it. There wasn't anything that they expected. They seem to think there might be some sort of food but that's just them. 」

<> Interact <> A Sheet of Paper

「There's a piece of paper on the table with the black written words easily seen under the lantern lights. There seemed to have both sides filled with words meaning there's going to be quite the large amount of reading. Nothing much for the vessel to handle. 」

「The front-page reads, "If you are reading this then congrats on complete the two puzzles. I made them quite hard to solve and the door sealed with a magic barrier so it's impossible to brute into here. But thank you. I've worked very hard are those just so anyone who completed them can obtained this amulet. The silver amethyst amulet is a trinket I got from a friend of mine. It supposed to bring increase magical capabilities but for some reason it doesn't work for me. Not only that, but I also don't think I want to wear fancy amulet anyways. So, you can keep it instead if you want. Hope you have some luck with it." 」

「The back-page reads, "And besides, if you ever encounter the friend who gave me this, they will understand once they see the amulet with you. They're a nice person that sometimes seem a bit bland at times. They're located in the Sacred Ruins, far away from here. Remember to wear a disguise to avoid confrontation with other creatures of the core. He won't mind but won't give such nice treatment. Thank you for reading this. Please enjoy my gift of the amulet as well as the ink pen since I won't use it anymore since I trapped it in here. Sincerely, Windi Anenstia. 」

「The vessel looked over at the amulet and picked it up. It seemed quite amusing for them as the diamond shaped amethyst goes well with their overall colors. They are still curious if the magic from this amulet would work on them. 」

「They [Equip] the [Silver Amethyst Amulet]. 」

[] Silver Amethyst Amulet // (Equipment) // This amulet allows the user to [REDACTED]. [The following information is blocked!] []

「The vessel became a bit confused by the information given to them. It seemed that the true info of the amulet is blocked from them from viewing, and they wouldn't be able to know what it is. For now, they kept it on until something happen. Not sure what, but they hope they're given the chance to. 」

「They sighed before picking up the pen which Windi stated that they could. An ink, quite smooth to hold and has a bit of weight to it. How much ink is left in it anyways? 」

[] Ink Pen // A writing pen with ink. Nothing special but quite useful when needed. []

「The vessel seemed done with this room. They waved at the singular lantern and paper a goodbye as if they're saying that to Windi who just spoke to them. It's time for them to head out and continue on their journey. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins F-2

「Back out here, it's time for them to move into the next zone. They don't know what to expect but they do wish to see more of what Windi have put around in these ruins. Enough with a brief pause, they began to stroll and enjoying the autumn vibe of the atmosphere. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins G-2

「This place is quite an interesting garden with the middle being the stone floors but the side having plots of lands held up but a square shape and planks. It seemed stable to handle soils alongside the plants above it which seemed quite green and healthy. Above each one of the square plots is some sort of lightbulb with a small pearl within it that lit up brightly. There was also a watering can next to one of the plot and other tools as well. 」

「Didn't know they have agriculture within the ruins but then again, perhaps a lot of creatures of the core needed to. 」

<> Interact <> Watering Can

「A green watering can made out of plastic which seemed to be empty at the moment. Perhaps someone, most likely Windi, has already watered the plants here. It seemed that the wendigo slime has many hobbies besides making puzzles. 」

「When observing around, there's a few more watering can. Perhaps there still water in those if they wanted to water some plants. 」

<> Interact <> Garden Plots

「There's plenty of these on both sides. The wet soil and fresh leaves of the plant gave them the appearance of healthy plants. These seemed to be plants that could regrow from the stem such at corn, tomatoes, beans, and much more. However, there's non-available to harvest as they're still developing. Once in a while, you do see little crawlers on the leaves such as a caterpillar slowly munching the greens. 」

「The vessel does notice an out of place garden plot that doesn't have any sort of edible plants growing. What could this one be? 」

<> Interact <> Flower Plot

「A garden plot at the way in the far end of the room that held a flower garden and a small wooden box painted white placed on the corner of it. You could see small insects coming in and out of it as those bugs went over the fully grown flowers. They're bees, honeybees that roam around the garden, especially these colorful flowers of different varieties. 」

「There is one flower that stuck out like a sore thumb since it's the biggest yellow sunflower that is almost taller than the vessel. 」

「They admired the sunflower before they noticed a voice coming from it. It doesn't seem to have a mouth- 」

(Sunflower) ???: "Wassup. Messing with the beeeeeessss? No no to that, stranger."

◇ Entering Self-Defense State ◇

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「The sunflower started to sway left and right with its large yellow petal spinning around it. When this state activated, it seemed that the flower is hostile toward the vessel with a sentient intelligence. 」

「The usual process of using [Check] on the opponent in the beginning to learn about before moving on. 」

[] Sunflowey // A sentient flower that doesn't have a face. Another day at protecting the beeeessss :) // Low Resistant, 15% A.A.P (Average Attack Power) []

◇ Sunflowey's Turn◇

Sunflowey: "Stay away from the beeeesss, you robot. No one needs your present around here."

「The sunflower spun quickly before seeds from its head started to fall out upward high to the ceiling before it began to accelerate toward the vessel. This made them go away from the flower to avoid the projectile! This continued until part of the sunflower's head had some empty spot from using too many seeds. 」

「However, a yellow aura glowed on themselves, and the spot now filled up with new seeds in the use of magic. 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「Since using [Purify] could work, they seen the resistant of the creature and thought it be less effective to use now. They stick with their other options for now and the one that mostly peak their idea is the [Item]. The flower is sentient and definitely could see the vessel, so they'll most likely see the [Always Fresh Honey Bottle]! 」

「Sunflowey noticed but seemed a bit more agitated by the sight of it instead. 」

◇ Buff ◇ +5% A.A.P for this Turn. ◇

◇ Sunflowey's Turn◇

Sunflowey: "A robot with their honeys!? Thief! Those honey are for the beeeesss!"

「The flower stretched its stem and tried to attack the vessel with its rapidly spinning head. Due to its limited range the sunflower snuck in a quick spit of a seed that hit them unexpectedly. It then moved back and adjust to its original spot in the soil. 」

◇ -20% Mana ◇ 65% / 100% Mana ◇

「They winced has the seed had caused a crack on their arm, but it quickly regenerated at the cost of their own mana. 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「With [Item] not being the best option, they instead see if there's [Action] to use on the flower. They gotten close within it range but instead of trying to communicate or touch it, they instead picked up a nearby watering can that still had water in and began to [Water] the Sunflowey. 」

「The sunflower enjoyed the watering and seemed a bit more peaceful toward the vessel for a moment. 」

◇ Debuff ◇ -5% A.A.P for this Turn. // Low Resistant changed to None for this Encounter ◇

◇ Sunflowey's Turn◇

Sunflowey: "This feels relaxing. I like this but you still a robot. Don't water the beeeesss!"

「The flower leaned back before it jolted forward, sending a cluster of sunflower seeds to hit them like a shotgun shooting pellets. However, the projectile speed is a bit slower, and the vessel treated it like that bouncing slime. Just move aside to avoid. 」

「The same yellow aura appeared, and all its seed regenerated once again. A sentient and magical flower, what a special kind! 」

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「Since there isn't good option to choose since their resistant is removed, they went to [Purify] the Sunflowery instead! A flash from their palm toward the flower, making it a bit calmer towards them. 」

◇ +50% Purity ◇ 50% / 100% Purity ◇

◇ Sunflowey's Turn◇

Sunflowey: "The bright light is too sudden. The beeeesss won't like it."

「The flower noticed that the vessel has gotten close, so it took its opportunity by leaning back and darting toward them. The sudden speed caught the vessel a bit off guard and ended up getting direct hit. Their shoulder received the full force of the headbutt impact! 」

◇ -15% Mana ◇ 50% / 100% Mana ◇

◇ Oblivion's Turn ◇

「With the final [Purify], the managed to successful purified the plant creature to prevent them from no longer harming the vessel! 」

◇ +50% Purity ◇ 100% / 100% Purity ◇

◇ Self-Defense State Completed ◇

Sunflowey: "I guess you are nice to the beeeesss. Sorry for all that. I thought you were a bad robot trying to harm us. I was wrong." 

「The flower sighed before it just went quiet and swayed slowly left and right, slowly absorbing the bright light from the light bulb. They could see the small particles coming from the ceiling and into the plant itself. 」

「The vessel sighed of relief as they were only half the mana left in their system. They hoped for Pearl to be awake, but it seemed now is not the time. They wonder if they could use an [Item] but it might a waste to have leftover mana not be in use. 」

「They could handle with half the mana and went out of this garden zone. 」

<> Location <> Autumn Ruins H-2

「From the distance, the sound of water falling downward could be heard. It's constant and the sound grew louder as they walked into this room. After making it a quarter way, they encountered stairs again but this time, it led downward into a more different shade of colors from the autumn orange and brown coloration to the grayer and more faded blue coloration like the Glowing Ruins. 」

「It seemed that the thorny vines stopped at the beginning of the stairs but there was new sight of green vines without thorns but instead glow berries. More of them on the wall the further down they went. 」

「The Autumn Ruins and the Glowing Ruins are both very connected to each other. The staircase was wide and seemed to be an easy passage forward back between two types of ruins. Unlike the bridge, this area doesn't have any creature guarding it. 」

Pearl: "Wait!" Pearl leaped off the hat and went in front of them in a panic! "Don't continue! Sorry for waking up a bit late but don't continue here yet!"

「The vessel tilted their head a bit confused, but they'll listen to her. 」

Pearl: "Don't continue in this path. I don't know why but it's DANGEROUS! Something about the next area from here, I want you turn around and go the other way. There should be another route instead. Please?"

「There were two voices alongside the loud sound of water. They couldn't fully hear since they were still far away. They became curious about the voices but for some reasons, there seemed to be Windi's voice as well. At least the female one talking sounded like her. They had to go investigate. 」

Pearl: "... I can't stop you but wait a moment. If you going to go anyways, let me do this first. Stand STILL!" She activated the [SAVE MEMORIES] for the vessel before she routinely landed back on their hat. "There. You're fully healed, and you can return back to these memories just in case. I wish you fare well."

「The vessel nod and went down more, heading toward the entrance to the next place. The water and the voice slowly became louder and louder with each step. The clarity of the voice is easier understood as they were sure it was Windi! However, who is the other person? A male talking to her. It sounds familiar. 」

Pearl: "You can back out now if you want." She spoke before taking a nap. "...If you want."

「They shook their head, wanting to continue instead. 」

「Once they make it to the entrance, they hid behind the wall and peek over to see whose talking with Windi. Their curiosity has brought them to this point and now it has backfired as their eyes became fearful when they saw who it was. 」

「They recognized the person with Windi. They recognized that person from long ago. It was them. The one they hope in not encountering again. The blue fire humanoid with orange visor and fire-resistant clothes. The one with gloves and a vicious personality... But why is he so different unlike before? 」

「He stood next Windi who was sitting on the ground, picking up a blue flower that she found next to the waterfall river. The person doesn't have any anger but instead had a warm-hearted expression his face toward her. 」

Windi: "Look at this flower, Etheio! It looked just like you! I think it's very pretty and special since it's the first flower I seen that bloomed in your ruins." She said as she stared at the flower with happiness expressed toward it.

「So, the person besides her is named Etheio... He chuckled and had a small blush on his face, awkwardly standing beside her with his hands casually on the side. 」

Etheio: "It sort of looks like me. It doesn't have the orange though." He felt a bit embarrassed saying that and looked away for a moment.

Windi: "Don't say that. It looks just like you! The bluest side of you! It's the closest thing that resembles the great Etheio! Trust me, I can see the similarities."

Etheio: "I-I supposed. It looks like me just like you said." He chuckled before glancing over at the entrance where the vessel at before he tapped Windi's shoulder. "I got a favor to ask of you."

Windi: "Hmm? What is it? You can say whatever you want on your mind!" She stood up and smiled brightly. "What's the favor you're asking of me?"

Etheio: "Mind if you go into the Glowing Ruins, enter into my home and get me a box that has the tag "Surprised" on it for me." He paused for a moment and rubbed the back of his head. "Ahh, spark. Just head over there and get it for me. It's really important but don't open the BOX! Just don't! Please. Thank you."

Windi: She giggled and nod before walking away, waving at him. "Silly! I'll get that box for you, and I'll promise you I won't open it! Okay? See you in a bit Etheio!"

「Etheio awkwardly stood there and look down... Once Windi left, he quickly turned around and stared at the vessel who was spying on the both of them. His expression became angry and serious, his fist gripping and shaking a bit that spark of electric and flame appeared from him. 」

Etheio: "Come out from there. I don't enjoy people spying on our business. It's cowardly and pathetic. Out. NOW!"

「The vessel trembled as they stepped out and walked toward them before they stop. They didn't like the dreadful atmosphere around Etheio. Sparks zapped around him, and the heat rose up, making them sweat mana. 」

Etheio: "An Obsirose... You've made it this far and still walking and breathing. And why were you in her territory! Shamelessly entering in the ruins and exploring around here as if it's a playground!" He raised his right hand and grip before he swiped it to the side, thunder striking next to him. "This is no playground boy. They should've taught you not to walk in HERE! Since they haven't done that, I'll DO IT MYSELF!" 

「The river next to him began to grow hot and more lightning swirl around his body. Both his gloves set ablaze as he prepared himself to attack you. 」

Etheio: "NO ONE SPY ON US! THIS IS MY MOMENT AND I WON'T LET YOU RUIN IT! BE GONE, OBSIROSE!"
