Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Noah: .......
  • Noah: Gasp. Ugh, ahh... Where...?
  • Noah: The temple...? Why am I here again...?
  • Noah: What happened? I was at Rosso's manor...
  • Noah: The monsters... no, it wasn't the monsters. Someone attacked...
  • Noah: Clamor took the hit...!
  • Clamor: .......
  • Noah: ... Oh, I see. This time...
  • Noah: Clamor... went back to the state before the seal was removed...
  • Noah: Everything that I did, no longer happened...
  • Noah: Haha... It's even worse than before. If it's going to be like this, just take my memory away. At least then, it won't hurt as much...
  • Noah: No, if I just never wake up...
  • Noah: I... How much longer until...
  • (SHUFFLE...)
  • Noah: ...There's no time to lie around like this. I need to go save Yuria. She would have lost her staff by now.
  • Noah: Once I meet Yuria, I'll ask her to remove the seal on...
  • Noah: On... Clamor...
  • Noah: And then what?
  • Noah: What... do I want to do after I meet him again...?
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Yuria: Waaah... Thanks! I thought I was really...
  • Yuria: done... for...?
  • Yuria: Hey, are you alright? Why are you crying?
  • Noah: .......
  • Yuria: Are you hurt? It doesn't look like it... Oh, don't cry.
  • Noah: I don't know.
  • Noah: I don't know why Clamor did it. I don't think he was trying to trick me...
  • Yuria: Huh...?
  • Noah: I shouldn't have met anyone. It was better alone.
  • Noah: It wasn't complicated like this, when I was focusing on revenging my brother.
  • Noah: It's too late... Even though everything went back in time, I can't do it. The meeting, the bond we had, I can't remove it from my memory!
  • Noah: I should have known that anything I do is doomed from the start... I was overconfident I could change things, only to regret it again and...
  • Yuria: Phew... Cheer up. I'm not exactly sure what's going on, but... is there any way I can help?
  • Noah: No... You will forget about me soon. Just like before.
  • Yuria: Huh?
  • Noah: Meeting me, talking to me, anything you do with me will soon have no meaning.
  • Noah: No matter what I do, nothing change. No matter how much I struggle, this moment will repeat endlessly, like clockwork!
  • Noah: I'm sick of it. I just want to take a break.
  • Yuria: .......

  • Yuria: Hey, um...
  • Noah: .......
  • Yuria: I don't really know what's going on... and, talking to me might not be in your best interest... But I still want to help cheer you up.
  • Noah: .......
  • Yuria: You said I'm going to forget everything, right? Then why don't you use this chance to just, vent everything that's on your mind?
  • Yuria: So um... First off... Why did you fight with your friend?
  • Noah: ...It's not... I was the only one angry. I think Clamor just listened.
  • Yuria: I don't know why you were angry at your friend, but did your friend just listen because he acknowledged it was his fault?
  • Noah: ... I don't know. I don't think it was Clamor who did it. His animosity towards the Order seems genuine.
  • Noah: I know, he's right... It's not the right time period. But... I, I for one, can't say everything's fine because it's all in the past...
  • Yuria: (The Order?)
  • Yuria: Um, so, you don't think your friend did anything wrong... right? Then why are you still hesitant?
  • Noah: But what if he did? What if Clamor did all those things?
  • Noah: I don't know how I could handle that if that were the case...
  • Yuria: Hm... How complicated. Are you still worried because you think he's not trustworthy? What kind of person is he?
  • Noah: ... A magician. He said he's a scholar who invents magical items.
  • Yuria: ...That's, uh, it? What else?
  • Noah: What... else? Do I need anything else?
  • Yuria: Hm, well, where he was born, his likes and dislikes, his hobby, his life time goal...
  • Yuria: You know, things like that, that helps you understand what kind of person he is?
  • Noah: I... don't know. I never asked.
  • Noah: (...It feels strange.)
  • Yuria: Huh? You're friends though, right? You weren't curious?
  • Noah: No. Not once...
  • Noah: (Am I feeling guilty?)
  • Noah: (Why? Because I don't know about Clamor?)
  • Yuria: Oh, uh... There are people like that, too! Haha, I'm a bit nosy. I ask a lot of questions until I'm satisfied.
  • Yuria: When I'm close to someone, I want to know them, so I ask. Then I wonder about something else... and it goes on!
  • Yuria: You don't have to know each other well to be friends, but when you know more, you can do more, you know?
  • Noah: Like what?
  • Yuria: Hm... If you know what they like, you can give them a surprise gift. If you know what they don't like, you can avoid that topic... Something like that!
  • Noah: I wasn't like that.
  • Noah: ... Though I think Clamor was.

Description

He wants to learn more about Clamor to make up his mind. Remembering a passage he read at the lab, Noah decides to head deeper into the temple.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Yuria: Mmm... I can't explain it as well as my sister... But! Your concern is basically 'I want to trust him but I don't know!', right?
  • Noah: ... I think so.
  • Yuria: Then instead of trusting him, why don't you just trust yourself?
  • Noah: ... I don't get it. Isn't that the same thing?
  • Yuria: Not at all! If you trust yourself, it means you're taking full responsibility. You are choosing for yourself.
  • Yuria: If you want to trust him, you believe. If you don't, you don't. If you start worrying, it will never end. It just ends up holding you back.
  • Yuria: In this kind of situation, you should just do what your heart tells you to.
  • Noah: Do what my heart tells me... What if I mess up everything?
  • Yuria: Aww, no need to make up your mind already. I'm not sure if I'm qualified to give you advice, since I'm just a kid myself, but I imagine it's like walking down a path.
  • Yuria: You're on the wrong path? Then you just turn back and find another way. The world is not going to fall apart just because you made a wrong turn.
  • Yuria: And from my experience, even moments when I thought 'I should have...' or 'I don't think this is my path', turned out fine in the end!
  • Yuria: So forget everything and think about what you want to do. Are you going to close your eyes and take a leap of faith? Or just leave it be?
  • Noah: I....
  • Noah: I... I want to know more about Clamor.
  • Noah: What he did, what he was thinking... and how he responded to what happened. So I can trust with all my heart.
  • Noah: But... I'm still uncertain. If the one thing I feared most turned out to be true... then...
  • Noah: What... am I supposed to do now that everything's back to how it was in the beginning?
  • Noah: ... found a door to the past that could potentially be used for experiment...'
  • Clamor: I see. It only reflects the past of the user...
  • Noah: Oh... The door! With that, I can...!
  • Yuria: Did you remember something? Are you decided now?
  • Noah: I think so. I'll go immediately.
  • Noah: Oh right! Here!
  • Yuria: Huh? Oh! My staff! Where did you find it?
  • Yuria: Huh...? Wait, did I tell you that I've lost my staff...?
  • Noah: There's no time to explain! You should hurry to camp for now. It's going to be hectic because of the temple's curse. The Landars are in danger!
  • Noah: Moonflowers are effective. I'll follow you right away, so wait for me there!
  • Yuria: Huh? Hold on...!

  • Door: .......
  • Noah: Pant, pant. I found it. This is the door that sends you to the past you regret most...
  • Noah: This has to be the one... with the guard statue.
  • Door: .......
  • ???: ... ... ... ... (Wow... babies are so small. Hello, Noah.)
  • Noah: Huh? Who's there?
  • ???: ... ... ... ... (My name is Harque. I'm your brother. We'll have lots of fun together.)
  • Noah: This voice...
  • Noah: ... No. I can't get any closer.
  • Noah: I'll get caught by the voice I miss too much...
  • Door: .......
  • Noah: Sigh... Clamor.
  • Noah: .......
  • Noah: I... I don't really know much about you.
  • Noah: I thought we talked a lot... But now that I look back, it was you who always asked me questions, and I just answered.
  • Noah: Even when I did talk, it wasn't to ask about you. The only thing that was important to me was the Order.
  • Noah: ...But I shouldn't have been like that.
  • Noah: All this time, you were being considerate, but I didn't even notice. In fact, I think I complained a lot.
  • Noah: Maybe I haven't changed since I was a whiny boy, always relying on my brother to do everything for me.
  • Noah: ... I think I'm doing this all out of order, but I want to know.
  • Noah: Just... what kind of person you are.
  • Noah: That way, I'll know where my heart should take me.

Past, Seven Tower

Description

Beyond the door, past the voice he missed so much, was Seven Tower, 1,000 years ago.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • (... ... ... ...)
  • Noah: Where... is this? It's so bright...
  • Tired Student: What time was our first class, again?
  • Student with a Book: We'll be late if we don't hurry.
  • Noah: Where am I...? This is completely different from the temple I was in just now. A place unfamiliar to me...
  • Noah: Did I manage to travel to Clamor's past, using the relic?
  • Student with a Book: Who's that kid?
  • Noah: Ugh... They're staring at me... Though, from what we've read about the relic, I guess it makes sense that they notice me even though I'm an outsider.
  • Noah: Even if they're not real, all this staring is bothering me... I should go look for Clamor right away.
  • Noah: ... Wait, Clamor... What does Clamor look like?
  • Talkative Student: Did you hear? Headmaster Landar is going to leave soon.
  • Dazing Student: Why? Is he going to another tower?
  • Talkative Student: No, he's going to leave Seven Tower, entirely!
  • Insolent Student: What? Hm... I guess it makes sense, though. Seven Tower hasn't been the same since Debrians came.
  • Talkative Student: All the Elves left Elrianode as well. Once Landar leaves, Debrians are really going to take over this place.
  • Dazing Student: Elves? There's still one left though, isn't there?
  • Insolent Student: What, you consider that half-breed a true Elf? How generous.
  • Talkative Student: Isn't it obvious why he's still here? I'd say they didn't let him join.
  • Insolent Student: Ahh. If only he left. Then there would be a place open on the seventh floor.
  • Talkative Student: And you think you can take that place at your level? Haha fat chance.
  • Insolent Student: It's not like he's any special. If I were a half-Elf like he is, I would have an army of spirits under my command.
  • Noah: ... Distasteful.
  • ???: .......
  • (STEP, STEP, STEP)
  • Talkative Student: Yikes, how long was he standing there? He's never found outside his room.
  • Dazing Student: Do you think he heard what we said?
  • Insolent Student: If he's a 'real' Elf, sure.
  • ???: .......
  • ???: ... It's always ones without brains that go off with their mouths. Maybe I'd take you more seriously if you were actually competent.
  • Insolent Student: What? You...!
  • Dazing Student: Hey, let it go. You'll end up suspended again.
  • Noah: ...! This voice... Clamor?
  • Noah: Clamor! Wait!
  • (GRAB-)
  • Seven Tower Guard: Who are you? How did you get in here?
  • Noah: Huh? I'm... I'm here looking for someone...
  • Seven Tower Guard: Who let you in? We don't allow just anyone to enter this place.
  • Noah: (Ahh, I'll end up being kicked out of the tower at this rate.)
  • Noah: Ha!
  • Seven Tower Guard: Ugh! Intruder! Get him!
  • Noah: (Where did he go?)
Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Noah: Pant, pant... What do I do? I lost him. But they said Clamor is on the seventh floor. I should be able to find him as long as I know which floor I'm at...
  • Seven Tower Guard: Get him!
  • Noah: Pant, pant, but I need to lose the guards first. Where can I hide...?
  • (GRAB)
  • ???: Shhh, This way.
  • Noah: !
  • (SLAM)
  • ???: .......
  • Noah: .......
  • ???: ...Are they gone? Tsk, are they trying to terrify the kid? Why would they pull out something like that?
  • Noah: Clamor?
  • Clamor: Hm? Do you know me? Oh, I think I saw you downstairs.
  • Noah: (...So this is what he looks like. He looks to be around the same age as... Harque.)
  • Clamor: Kid. How did you get here?
  • Noah: What? I mean, excuse me?
  • Clamor: Why are you here at Seven Tower.
  • Noah: Uh... I was looking for someone...
  • Noah: (... As expected. He doesn't recognize me. How do I explain? Would he... believe me if I do?)
  • Clamor: Looking? For who?
  • Noah: ... Um...
  • Noah: I'm not sure.
  • Clamor: What?
  • Noah: I don't really know him... So I'm here to learn more.
  • Clamor: Sigh... So you just barged in here without even knowing anything?
  • Noah: ... Uh... I know it seems suspicious...
  • Clamor: ... Hey, you don't have to be scared...
  • Clamor: Are you sure the person you're looking for is here?
  • Noah: Yes.
  • Clamor: Did you get permission to come here? Your parents are probably worried about you.
  • Noah: ... I have no home to return to.
  • Clamor: ...Ah... Errmm...
  • Clamor: ... Hey, kid? Scholars of the Tower move floors or even leave to a different tower depending on what they do. The person you're looking for may not even be here anymore.
  • Clamor: And this place only open to the public on certain days. They bother you a lot if you don't get permission beforehand.
  • Clamor: But... If you really don't have a place to be. You can stay here for a while.
  • Noah: Really? I can do that?
  • Clamor: Yes. But you have to be quiet. There's a no pet policy, but maybe humans can be an exception.
  • Noah: I will. Where are we, anyway?
  • Clamor: My lab.

  • (SLIP, Ssss...)
  • Noah: (... He's been looking at papers nonstop.)
  • Noah: Yaawn...
  • Clamor: If you're sleepy, you can just take a nap. I'll wake you up in time for dinner. Do you need a blanket?
  • Noah: No. It's fine. ... Um, aren't you going home?
  • Clamor: Eh? This is my home.
  • Noah: But this is a school.
  • Clamor: Yes, and it's also my home.
  • Noah: ... Do you have family?
  • Clamor: Yes.
  • Noah: Siblings?
  • Clamor: Nope. I did want one though.
  • Clamor: It might have made my life a little more interesting if I had a bratty younger brother who barged in Seven Tower like you.
  • Noah: Now that I think about it... I heard all the Elves left Elrianode. Why didn't you go with them?
  • Clamor: Are you asking me because you're bored? Well... I just didn't. You don't have to follow everywhere your family goes.
  • Noah: But... You'll be separated from your family. Aren't you lonely?
  • Noah: ... I'm not that close to my parents, you know. I was closer to my brother.
  • Clamor: .......
  • Noah: I heard they held a lot of expectations before I was born. They thought I would be the one to bring honor to the family.
  • Noah: My parents were nice people... But that was it. I understand, though. They would have been conscious of other people's opinions.
  • Clamor: You...
  • Clamor: You really shouldn't pour out your personal history to just anyone.
  • Noah: I wasn't just pouring it out. I wanted to hear your story.
  • Clamor: ... Really? You're the first to attempt exchanging personal story for a personal story.
  • Clamor: The reason I didn't leave... ... Did you ever own a pet? Like a cat, for example.
  • Noah: No. I heard my brother had one. I was too young to remember, but I heard he was pretty upset when it passed away.
  • Clamor: Well yes. It's usually like that. They make you happy, and it feels like you can never live without it, but... it's not like they ever live as long as people do.
  • Clamor: They grow up before you even realize it, start becoming sluggish, and get sick more and more often. It makes you realize you don't have much time with them.
  • Clamor: ... For them, I was something like that.
  • Noah: You decided to part because you can't live together for long?
  • Noah: I don't get it... Isn't that more the reason you should spend every moment together?
  • Clamor: Though we share the same blood, we did not share the same time. When your concept of time is different, the way you think about the world is also different.
  • Clamor: When you don't think the same way, you naturally drift apart. One of the reasons was that unbalanced feeling as if we're sharing the space, but living in a different time.
  • Clamor: So even though it gets lonely, I wanted to live with people who I can share my time with. That's why I stayed.
  • Noah: Sharing time...
  • Clamor: Do you understand? What would you have done?
  • Noah: ... I don't know. Even if that's the better way, it's not that easy to give up.
  • Clamor: You're right. No matter what you choose, you end up losing, and there's no right answer. But you still have to decide one way or the other.
  • Noah: ... But! I don't think you're like that.
  • Noah: Sorry?
  • Clamor: Now, I have a guest coming in tomorrow. Once I get that over with, I'll help you.
  • Noah: Help... what?
  • Clamor: Looking for the person you were talking about.
  • Noah: Why do you think I told you my story? Good or bad, you only have a limited time to spend time together.
  • Noah: I don't know who you're looking for, but I'll help you. So return home before you worry your family too much.
  • Noah: (Oh, I see. He thinks I'm a runaway...)
  • Clamor: As you said, if it's important to spend every moment together, you should grab it when you get the chance.
  • Noah: A chance... Yes, you're right.

Description

Noah finally learns how Clamor truly felt. Though he knows it's impossible to change the past, Noah stands in the way of the man who's trying to harm Clamor.

Quest Acceptance Dialogue
  • Noah: .......
  • Noah: Mm, ah... When did I fall asleep?
  • Noah: A blanket? Did Clamor give me this? Where is Clamor?
  • Clamor: This... and this...
  • Clamor: And this one here. Damn it. I was too focused on fulfilling the client's orders that I've allowed too much leeway.
  • Clamor: I can't have it like this... This allows too much potential for abuse. Is that what they were aiming for from the start?
  • Clamor: If an animal, or a person with a living soul enters the capsule instead of elemental power...
  • Clamor: By El... This is no different from demonic swords. You don't even have to create an ego if you just use human sacrifice... I can't believe I created something like this!
  • Noah: (I don't think he knows I'm awake.)
  • Clamor: Even if I stop now, I'm at a stage where someone else can look at the work and finish the job. I can't back out now!
  • Clamor: Sigh...
  • Noah: (The flaw... This is when he noticed.)
  • Clamor: ... Idiot. You're no naive. What's the point of learning if you can't even predict something like this?
  • Clamor: Those people... What are they planning with this? They're not going to do something crazy like black magic, are they?
  • Clamor: ... That doesn't matter. Whatever it is, I can't let it happen.
  • Clamor: The client already has all the blueprints... But the document on the Incubator and the synchronization on the object that will be transplanted is due this morning.
  • Clamor: That's when I'll cast a second spell disguised as the linking spell.
  • Clamor: Even if they complete it according to the blueprints, it will be sealed immediately, and render it useless.
  • Clamor: If it's going to be used for something bad, it's better if it doesn't work at all.
  • Clamor: ... Sigh. Now I've done everything I can.
  • Clamor: .......
  • Noah: .......
  • Clamor: AACK! This can't be everything! The second spell will only prevent using the final product, not the attempt of making it.
  • Clamor: If they are truly planning on creating a demonic sword, and trap someone using this invention...
  • Clamor: The one trapped in the Incubator will be dead in all but name. Eternally trapped in the Incubator, with their freedom ripped away from them...
  • Clamor: Haha... When that happens, I might as well be damned. What do I do...
  • Noah: (You hesitated. You regretted... as well.)

  • Client: Good. This is satisfactory.
  • Clamor: .......
  • Noah: (This must be it. When Clamor was attacked by the Order member and...)
  • Noah: (It's already in the past. I can't change anything even if I intervene.)
  • Noah: (But... Is this really ok?)
  • Client: We will start with the manufacturing process immediately based on the blueprint.
  • Clamor: .......
  • Client: Aren't you happy? The people of Senace will be pleased with your cooperation. This will help resolve their long-time problem with managing the waterway.
  • Clamor: It's not that. I actually have a concern.
  • Client: Huhu, you have no reason to be so humble. This is a great achievement. You should have more pride in your work.
  • Noah: (That symbol on his robe... I think I saw it somewhere...?)
  • Client: With this... our contract is complete. Thank you for your work.
  • Client: We will likely never see each other again, so I will say my farewells now.
  • Clamor: ... Wait.
  • Noah: Haa! Stand back!
  • Client: Ugh, what...!
  • Clamor: Kid? What are you doing?! Where did you get that weapon?
  • Noah: I know! I know I can't change anything. But still...!
  • Client: Kugh... AAAHHH!
  • Noah: But I still need to try!

  • Noah: I defeated him...!
  • Noah: Changing the past! I did it! What happens now?
  • Noah: Clamor! Are you ok? Everything's fine now!
  • Clamor: .......
  • Client: Huhu, you have no reason to be so humble. This is a great achievement. You should have more pride in your work.
  • Noah: (What's going on? It's repeating again. Why?)
  • Noah: (... He's not responding even when I touch him. I can't interfere anymore...)
  • Client: With this... our contract is complete. Thank you for your work.
  • Client: We will likely never see each other again, so I will say my farewells now.
  • Clamor: ... Wait. I must tell you something.
  • Clamor: ... There was a miscalculation in the plans. My mistake.
  • Clamor: Although it's complete... I would like to take a look at the blueprints again. I'm not sure what you had in mind, but this has the potential to...
  • (CRACK-)
  • (THUMP)
  • Client: Hm? Was he saying something?
  • Client: No matter. My job here is done. I will leave after manipulating the scene.
  • Noah: Ah....

  • Door: .......
  • Noah: ... I'm back at the temple.
  • Noah: I couldn't change the past in the end. I knew it would turn out like this. But... I don't regret trying.
  • Noah: Now I know for certain, Clamor. That you wanted to fix it.
  • Noah: ... The person who ambushed us, must be around here somewhere.
  • Noah: I wonder if Yuria handled everything at the camp? If she hasn't yet, I'll help with that, too.
  • Noah: I'll ask Yuria to remove the seal on Clamor. Then I can pay back for what happened at the manor!
