Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Ara: ... Ran.
  • Ran: Shh.......
  • Ran: I apologize. Could you wait a moment?
  • Chung: You had enough time.
  • Ran: Unfortunately, I need a little more.
  • Ran: If the insolent Dream Demon did his job, you wouldn't have had to wait.
  • Laby: So you're the one that made Vasili that way! Why did you have to be so mean?
  • Ran: I realized someone was following me. When that someone turned out to be a lowly Dream Demon... Can you really fault me for taking out my frustrations?
  • Ran: When I realized you came as well, I was surprised. I was wondering how you managed to do so...
  • Ran: Ah, but it was my old master, finally here to leash his dog.
  • Ran: I was wondering when you would intervene. You took so long to act that I was getting worried for your sake.
  • Aisha: (He noticed the Red Demon King's Eye...!)
  • Ran: Do not fear. I will not touch the eye. I know why you're here. Neither of us think fondly of each other.
  • Ran: I doubt that will change anytime soon... So I suspect this will be our last encounter.
  • Ran: Why hurry our last moments? Let us talk. You and I, I imagine we have a lot to talk about.
  • Elesis: (Talk? As if.)
  • Aisha: (Do you all see that thing behind Ran? It looks dangerous...)
  • Elsword: (Do you think that's the Heart Core?)
  • Raven: (From what we've heard, I didn't think it would be out in the open like this.)
  • Add: (I have a bad feeling about this... What is that?)
  • Add: (I'll go figure it out, so buy me some time. Talk, fight, anything.)
  • Chung: ... Why did you start the invasion?
  • Ran: Ahh, you chose a difficult topic from the start.
  • Ran: Let me see... The start? At the core, it all started because our lords were incompetent.
  • Lu: Incompetent?
  • Ran: Ah, pardon. But you also share the blame.
  • Ran: A land abandoned by god, and the king... The role of the demon lords was crucial, but none of you did anything meaningful.
  • Ran: Only wasting years and years away.
  • Ain: (A land... abandoned by god?)
  • Elesis: Is that really all you've got to say? Blaming the demon lords? I thought you might have a better excuse.
  • Ran: I'm merely laying out the cause and effect.
  • Ran: Demons don't know cooperation. They need to be subjugated, taken down, and beaten down with power.
  • Aisha: Victoria and Dream Demons weren't like that.
  • Ran: Pitiful beasts are bound to create a herd. In that sense, the invasion was messy, but necessary. Of course, I did find the result to be quite lacking...
  • Ran: I suppose I never should have expected cooperation to begin with.
  • Ara: You found it lacking? That is all that it amounts to?
  • Ran: You look upset. And some of you seem distracted... I apologize for the lacking accommodation. How should I make it up to you?
  • Chung: You head will be enough.
  • Ran: Hahaha... I don't think that's feasible.
  • Ran: ... That's right. How about a fight, for old time sakes? You have come all the way here, and I'd fate to disappoint my guests.
  • Ciel: Add! Your analysis?
  • Add: ... I need more time. Damn it... I swear I saw that somewhere...
  • Eve: Did you feel it too, Add?
  • Elsword: We can't delay this any further. Eve, Add, we're leaving that to you.
  • Chung: Haa!
  • (KLING-!!)
  • Ran: My... You've grown. You've come a long way from the boy who let his emotion cloud his attacks.
  • Chung: And who's fault was that?
  • Ran: Oh, are you giving me the credit for your growth? I'm honored. But!
  • (CLANG!)
  • Chung: Ugh!
  • Ran: Your movements are too honest, making you predictable. You still have a long way to go.
  • Ran: That's what I enjoy about you.
  • Ran: On the other hand...
  • (SWING!)
  • Ara: Ah...!
  • Ran: That was close.
  • Ran: You're... interesting. You always come when I least expect it.
  • Ran: It can get irritating, but leaves me no room to be bored. The human I took the body from was much the same.
  • Ran: Ah, wasn't he your brother? Did you meet him? I let him go, you see.
  • (CLANG!)
  • Ara: Ugh...!
  • Ran: You look overwhelmed... Can you take another hit?
  • Chung: No! Watch out!
  • (CLIING... PAT!)
  • Rena: Get away from my friends!
  • Ara: Thank you, Rena!
  • Ain: Here, Mr. Guardian. It wasn't anything serious.
  • Chung: Yes. Thank you!
  • Elsword: That haughty attitude has got to go. He's playing with us.
  • Raven: Don't let his taunts get to you. That's exactly what he wants.
  • Elsword: I'll try, but I won't promise anything.
  • Aisha: This is getting tough... My mana is draining quick. I'm doing the best I can, but watch out everyone.
  • Lu: You're being drained by the Abyss. We'll be at a disadvantage the longer we fight.
  • Ciel: Everything is in Ran's favor. Not many of us can fight regardless of demonic energy in a situation like this.
  • Elesis: Your body will always reflect your condition. Even if we're doing fine now, we'll be exhausted in no time.
  • Lu: I'd like to know what Ran's up to, that makes him so confident.
  • Eve: ... There's only one thing.
  • Add: Yes. We double checked multiple times, but it's still showing the same results...
  • Eve: It was something we knew from experience.
  • Add: It makes sense the data was unreliable. It's covered in demonic energy this time.
  • Noah: Are you done with the analysis?
  • Add: Ha, haha. Good timing kid. What does it feel like to be right in your prediction?
  • Noah: ... What's the result?
  • Eve: It's a Seed of Life.
  • Aisha: What?! What's Ran doing with a Seed of Life?
  • Raven: Is he planning on mutating using the Seed of Life?
  • Noah: I, I'll go!
  • Elsword: Me too!
  • Lu: Ciel, we'll go engage Ran!
  • Elesis: I'll follow you! Raven, Aisha! You're with me.
  • Raven: Understood.
  • Elesis: Eve, Add! You're...
  • Add: Tsk, you don't need to say it.
  • Elesis: Good! You do your thing. I'll leave you to it!

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Ran: Great. Hahaha... This is why I appreciate you.
  • Ran: Even though we're enemies and you're weak... I have to commend your dedication and spirit to head straight into a battle you know you cannot win.
  • Ran: If there were demons like you in the Demon Realm, perhaps things could have turned out differently.
  • Ara: After all this time... Do you need a friend?
  • Ran: Please. Your status is beneath me.
  • Laby: As if we want you as a friend! Laby doesn't want meanies who don't know the importance of friendship!
  • Lu: Haha! Hear! Hear!
  • Clamor: They're purposefully being loud to keep Ran's attention on them.
  • Clamor: Noah! Now's our chance!
  • Noah: Ok! Here I go...!
  • (BZZZ-!)
  • Noah: Ah?! Something's in the way! Again!
  • Rose: Ran's headed that way! Noah, watch out!
  • Ran: What's this? It's rude to sneak around.
  • Elsword: Kugh, get away from Noah!
  • (KLANG KLANG KLANG!!)
  • Elesis: Noah, how's the seed?
  • Noah: There's a black substance surrounding it, but I think I can get through with a couple more hits!
  • Elesis: Alright. Then I'll go stop Ran as well!
  • Ran: Oh, is it finally time to take this seriously?
  • Elesis: You betcha. I'll have you eat dirt like last time.
  • Ran: A memorable experience, indeed.
  • Elsword: Hey, where did you get that thing?
  • Ran: I took it from a suspicious looking man. Do you know what it is?
  • Elsword: You better not think about using it!
  • Elsword: We know what happened to someone who used it. It's not worth throwing away your life to gain power.
  • Ran: Don't worry. I may have acquired it by chance, but I've witnessed first-hand what happens to those who use this power.
  • Ran: Why do you think I threw this in the middle of the Abyss?
  • (CLANG! CLANG, CLANG!)
  • Noah: Ugh, just a little more...! One more hit...!
  • Ran: What's important, is homogeneity.
  • Noah: Ah?!
  • Rose: He took the Seed of Life... When did he...!
  • Ran: It's finally time. I apologize for the long wait.
  • Ran: Now... Let the real battle begin.
  • Ran: Ahh... I'm satisfied.
  • Ran: I feel the violent writhing of the power of life... Hahaha, despite your concerns, it's remarkably manageable.
  • Noah: Ugh, he transformed, but the energy...
  • Eve: The energy is stable. He completely took control. It's similar to what happened to Hennon.
  • Raven: But the power level exceeds Hennon. With the addition of the demonic energy of the Abyss, that may not even be his final form.
  • Add: Is this why I couldn't shake off the bad feeling? Damn it. I should have stopped him somehow.
  • Noah: I'm sorry. I should have destroyed it in time...
  • Add: ... But you managed to leave a mark. See over there, kid. The energy is leaking from the crack you created.
  • Ciel: You think he'll lose his power if we break it?
  • Aisha: Could be. But Ran's not going to stand by and let that happen... This is going to be difficult.
  • Aisha: But why did a Seed of Life appear here, at this moment?
  • Rose: Let's ask. Ran, how did you obtain the Seed of Life? Are you a member of the Order?
  • Ran: The Order? Is this their power? Tell me more.
  • Raven: We asked first. Why don't you answer our question.
  • Ran: Hm... Alright. I'll tell you.
  • Ran: When I was looking for Barkat after I came back to the Demon Realm, I found a group of suspicious humans and decided to follow them.
  • Ran: They ran away, but pulled out something when they were cornered, turning into hideous monsters.
  • Noah: (The members of the Order...)
  • Ran: Some looked useful, but unfortunately ran away. I wasn't exactly in the best condition.
  • Chung: Is that when you took over the Shadow Vein in Varnimyr?
  • Ran: Ah, were you the one to disturb the operation? You really do get in the way of everything.
  • Ran: After I recovered my strength, I chased them again. That's when I acquired it.
  • Ran: But... Hahaha! This truly exceeds my expectation. I don't know what Barkat was after, but I'd understand if it were to acquire this power.
  • Ran: Perhaps the Abyss... The power of origin will also fall into my hands...
  • Add: ... He has yet to notice the crack on the seed.
  • Rena: Looks like it. I guess with how much power he has, a leak like that is nothing.
  • Add: It seems you are well-versed in this power...
  • Ran: Then how about a lesson?

  • Raven: Haa, gasp, ah, I feel heavy...
  • Add: Cough, ugh... Red Demon King! Are you doing your job?
  • Lu: Don't worry. Demonic energy this potent should also affect Ran negatively.
  • Add: But at this rate, we'll be down before he is...!
  • Chung: Pant, pant... Elsword. You don't have to support me. I, I can still fight.
  • Ain: Stay still. You've been overexerting yourself.
  • Elsword: Go get healed. I can handle it until you catch your breath.
  • Chung: Alright... ... I'm sorry, Elsword.
  • Elsword: Huh? What's this about?
  • Chung: Before we came here. When I said I was going to come here by myself if everyone objects...
  • Chung: What you said... hurt. I thought, it's easy for you to say, because you don't understand what I'm going through.
  • Elsword: Oh, that... Sorry. I was a bit harsh.
  • Chung: No. I understand now what you meant. You're right. Abyss was not a place I could have come by myself.
  • Chung: And right now, I'm happy to be with my friends as the guardian.
  • Aisha: Chung...
  • Chung: I don't know what to say... I'm easily swayed by my emotion. I know I shouldn't... But I always seem to set my goals too high.
  • Elsword: No! You're doing fine. Why would you say that?
  • Aisha: Listen to him. You're much more reliable compared to Elsword. So much so, that I feel sorry comparing you two.
  • Elsword: You didn't have to bring me into it! Anyway, no need to blame yourself.
  • Elsword: Besides, who cares if you set your goals too high. That's good!
  • Elsword: It means you are looking at the next step. What you must do to grow. What to fix, and what you're lacking.
  • Elsword: It's amazing that you know your path. That's why we came here. Because we knew this was the path to protect everyone.
  • Chung: ... Thank you.
  • Elsword: Keep moving forward. Sometimes, it's ok to do whatever you want. Look at me! That's what I do.
  • Aisha: You should do less!
  • Aisha: Phew, but that was surprisingly mature advice coming from you, Elsword. I agree with him!
  • Aisha: Those who don't look after themselves, learn about themselves, and stop dreaming end up hitting a wall, because they do not have the motivation to move forward.
  • Aisha: The fact that you always give your all is amazing, Chung.
  • Ain: Yes. Mr. Guardian, you always put so much on your shoulders. Usually, I'd say not to overexert yourself...
  • Ain: But considering the situation right now, I'll allow just a bit. I'll be right beside you to raise you up.
  • Chung: Yes! I'll leave it to you!
  • Raven: Kugh....
  • Raven: (My body isn't moving as fast. I managed to block Ran's attacks... But the Nasod Arm moved on its own to block some of them.)
  • Raven: (Protecting the host... I know it needs me alive, but what about everyone else?
  • Raven: (Does it even have the concept of friendship? When friend and foe are fighting, how far will it go?)
  • Raven: (... I'll have to keep my distance for a while until this is all over.)
  • Lu: Ran, let me ask you this. You claimed the four demon lords have forgone their responsibilities.
  • Lu: Then what is your purpose. What do you wish to achieve with that power?
  • Raven: Are you still aiming for an invasion?
  • Ran: Invasion? That is not a priority.
  • Ran: The chaos of the Demon Realm exacerbated because of the four demon lords, but it began due to the Demon King's absence.
  • Ran: Before leaving this cursed land... Someone should establish and bring new order.
  • Ciel: You'll become the Demon King with that power?
  • Chung: You can't be serious! You have no right!
  • Red Demon King's Eye: ... Ran. You can never be the Demon King.
  • Ran: Why is that?
  • Red Demon King's Eye: You do not know the Demon King. That's why you do not appreciate.
  • Red Demon King's Eye: The Demon Realm can be divided as before the Demon King, and after. The accomplishments left by the Demon King is endless. That's the kind of legacy you're up against.
  • Red Demon King's Eye: The only one I gave what's akin to admiration and loyalty...
  • Red Demon King's Eye: Demon King is not a position you can seize with power.
  • Lu: Tir....
  • Red Demon King's Eye: Where he walked became the path, and where he stopped became a resting place.
  • Red Demon King's Eye: ... He was the sun that rose on its own. A star that fell to the Demon Realm.
  • Red Demon King's Eye: How dare you refer to him so lightly with your conniving tongue!
  • Ran: Hahahaha! What a surprise! I didn't know you even had that much emotion.
  • Ran: You're right. I do not know the Demon King. He is of a bygone era, remembered only by ancient relics like the four demon lords.
  • Ran: If the Demon King was your light, then most of the demons who do not know of him...
  • Ran: Shouldn't they be given light as well?
  • Aisha: What a massive ego.
  • Raven: I do not know Demon Realm politics, but you have a point. Chaotic times call for leaders who take charge and become the new standard.
  • Raven: But... There's no reason why that should be you.
  • Rena: Those from the White-Ghost Land and the Dream Demons seemed to have participated in the invasion forcibly, or without full understanding of the situation.
  • Rena: I don't think they'd be willing to accept your rule!
  • Ran: Accept? Hahaha! Accept?
  • Ran: They'll accept power. They'll accept... me.
  • Ara: Arrogant man. You're still chasing your ambition. If there's no hope for your repentance...
  • Ara: Then I will take you down!
  • Ran: Now, now... It's only the beginning.
  • Ran: If this is a seed like you said, then it should sprout and bear fruit.
  • Ran: I am dying to find out... the limit of this power.
  • Ran: Now, Abyss! Power of origin! Heed and rejoice the rise of the new Demon King!
