While the El Search Party prepares to enter the fortress, Ricardo leaves records about the wall.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Ricardo: Going in deeper, we found a mine site.
  • Ricardo: It seems that it has been here for quite some time, and seems to have sent supplies to the aerial island.
  • Elsword: ......
  • Raven: (A mine site and an aerial island. What a handful.)
  • Ricardo: (Since we are inside the wall, no machines attacked us. We set up a... temporary outpost...)
  • Ricardo: Hmm, no. Camp would be better. Temporary camp...
  • Aisha: You're working hard on that. What are you recording everything for?
  • Ricardo: It's to record the history of the Torta. It's for the future.
  • Aisha: I doubt anyone's going to read that...
  • Ricardo: What's important is we have something. I have alot of brothers much older than me. Many have already forgotten them.
  • Ricardo: We lost a lot of brothers challenging this wall. The only elite members alive are Shaddie and me. So, it makes sense for me to leave things like this at the very least.
  • Ain: It would have been better if you didn't start all this.
  • Ciel: You should take more care of Shaddie if she's the only one left and not pick on her.
  • Ricardo: Hey now. When have I picked on her? I dote on her all the time..
  • Ricardo: Anyway, if I don't record as is, everyone will come up with their own stories about it.
  • Aisha: It's good to record so diligently... but if they're that precius, you should take good care of them.
  • Aisha: You gave us the first draft of the records last time, right? What if we lost that?
  • Ricardo: Are you kidding me? You should take good care of things others lent you.
  • Aisha: (Why do these stupid folks trigger me by sometimes saying common sense things?)
  • (SWING!)
  • Rena: Everyone~ Shaddie's coming back. Let's go greet her.
  • Ara: You're back early. I hope nothing happened in the Land of Steel.
  • Ricardo: Let me guess. It's the same reason as last time. I can bet on it.
  • Lu: Do you even have anything left to bet?
  • Ricardo: Oops~ you're right. You own the Torta now~
  • Raven: ......
  • Ricardo: Tch, if only I wasn't so reckless, I would have been in the middle of Land of Steel.
  • Raven: Even if Dream Demons are resistant to the disease, we're uncertain of the dangers ahead. I can't let you just barge in ahead.
  • Raven: We need to be gradual with our exposure and make sure everything is safe.
  • Ricardo: Even so, we shouldn't just sit around here for days with no end! I acame here to have some fun!
  • Rena: (Raven always shows disproval, but he's so considerate. He's always a leader.)
  • Rena: Let's be on the positive side! If Shaddie came back safely, then the situation shouldn't be as bad, right?
  • Rena: Wait, how long ago did we clean out the wall?.
  • Elsword: ......
  • Aisha: Hey, what are you thinking?
  • Elsword: Wha? Oh. Yeah, it's been quite a while. It seems abnormally quiet... I thought they would retaliate from the island since we took over the wall.
  • Ara: I hope everything stays that way until we get up to the island. Getting blasted in midair was a horrible experience.
  • Elsword: Yeah. I would be nice if we could set off now... Where's Haivan?
  • Ara: So Haivan will be the one coming from White-Ghost Land?
  • Elsword: Yeah. I heard he's bringing some items that have been requested.
  • Elsword: And I forgot what he said... but I think he said he had some troublesome company.
  • Ara: Company?
  • (Boom!)
  • Aisha: What's going on?!
  • Raven: Are we under attack?!

Description

Lithia hears word of the El Search Party from Haivan.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • (Whoosh-!)
  • Haivan: ... That's all I know up to that point.
  • Haivan: They solved a lot of problems in White-Ghost Land, so we're working as allies for now.
  • Lithia: So since the El Search Party has passed White-Ghost LAnd and Red Demon Territory... They're already halfway through the Demon Realm, right?
  • Lithia: Man, what a letdown. I thought I would be the first human to explore the Demon Realm~
  • Lithia: (The academy talked of friends from other worlds. Records of the Rift date all the way to ancient times.)
  • Lithia: (There should be countless methods other than those that I used. I doubt many people crossed over the boundaries of the world.
  • Lithia: (But this mass invasion is another story. The huge transport device hidden in these lands...)
  • Lithia: (I can clearly see that someone tampered with this... Is the Order behind this?)
  • Lithia: (It would be nice if I can find the people who got here ahead of me to cooperate, but I'm not sure if I can trust them.)
  • Lithia: (Well, I guess it's the same for them too, right?)
  • Haivan: Why did you go silent all of a sudden? That worries me.'
  • Lithia: If only I had enough time, I'd love to tour Iserlohn. but too bad.
  • Haivan: Who's going to let you do that? It's off-limits now. I'm not even allowed in there.
  • Lithia: That's all on you. If I were Winster, I wouldn't even let you get near it, you troublemaker.
  • Lithia: Anyhow, you said we should hurry over, but flying so slowly.
  • Haivan: Well, we have so much stuff that we slightly exceeded the weight limit. And besides, this is a 1-man mount to begin with.
  • Lithia: Are you sure you're adept at driving? I feel like we're just circling around our destination.
  • Haivan: Don't look down on me. Look!
  • (Rrrrring!! ... ... Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep...)
  • Lithia: Huh. What is that sound?
  • Haivan: Uh, oh. We might have overheated from accelerating too quickly with too much onboard.
  • Lithia: What happens if you overheat?
  • (... Beep Beep Beep Beeuuuuuuu...)
  • Lithia: Hey, I think the engine shut do... Uwaaah!
  • Haivan: G, going down!
  • (...Boom!)

Description

Haivan and Lithia meet the El Search Party after the emergency landing onto the base on top of the wall.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Haivan: O, ouch! Be gentle with me.
  • Aisha: Stop being such a baby about it... Keep your hands to yourself so I can sanitize the wounds.
  • Ain: You were lucky to have landed safely. I suggest you stop flying if you're going to fly around like that.
  • Haivan: I'm usually good at it! If only I didn't have someone grilling me all the way over here...
  • Lithia: Sorray~
  • Haivan: Ugh, you're just so full of talk...
  • Haivan: Ow, this hurts... Can't you just use magic to heal me up?
  • Aisha: It's just a scratch. You don't need healing magic for that. It's not even good to keep receiving healing magic.
  • Lithia: ......
  • Rena: So, now that we're done with that, let's have a talk. Who are you?
  • Lithia: Yup. Hello, Senpai! My name is Lithia.'
  • Chung: Sen...pai?
  • Lithia: Ehehe, since you guys all got to the Demon Realm ahead of me, I should refer everyone as Senpai~.
  • Elesis: Why are you here in the Demon Realm?
  • Lithia: I have some personal reasons, but that's a long story to tell. So, I'll save that for later. We have pressing matters, no?
  • Lithia: I've heard from the great Masters that you all are searching for the Dark El in the Demon Realm.
  • Lithia: Mind if I ask how far you have progressed?
  • Elsword: ......
  • Raven: ...... Mmm...
  • Lithia: ... I see everyone rolling their eyes and no response.
  • Chung: Uh... Uhm... Probably... 0%...?
  • Lithia: Eh? Really?! You don't have a single clue? What have you all been doing in the Demon Realm?
  • Haivan: Don't be so harsh on them. They probably went through a lot. I had personal requests, too.
  • Elsword: Mmm... 0% on information on... Nero...
  • Haivan: What? You really don't know anything? Did you guys fool around?!
  • Elsword: We didn't fool around!
  • Ara: We, we went through a lot...!
  • Ain: It is indeed shocking. We came to the Demon Realm, yet we didn't get anything done.
  • Lithia: (Why is everyone so depressed?... Are they really heroes?)
  • Lithia: Hem, hem. So going back to my story... So, I think I can be of some help to whatever you guys are trying for.
  • Lithia: I'm quite an expert in terms of minerals. And I'm very skilled in magic!
  • Lithia: So, I think I'll be very useful in finding El in the Demon Realm. Nice to meet you!
  • Raven: If you've heard of us from the Masters, you know why we're here, right?
  • Lithia: Yes. I was told that we need to get Dark El to recover the Giant El in Elrios to prevent the world from collapsing.
  • Raven: I don't think the Masters would have exaggerated to that extent... but let's just say that's the case.
  • Ara: If you're well versed in minerals, you would be of great help to us.
  • Rena: You said you're a mage, right? I'm sure Aisha would be a good friend. You two are both around the same age as well.
  • Aisha: Mmm......
  • Lithia: Hnngh~ so you're Aisha Lander? Nice to meet you.
  • Aisha: Good to see you. But if you're trying to continue exploring with us... I am against it.
  • Lithia: Wha, What?! Why!

  • Aisha: Since you just came here, you probably weren't aware of the magnitude of the battles we had on this wall. It was dangerous.
  • Aisha: Our next destination is that mechanical island that you see floating up there. If the wall is this dangerous... then the island would be even more so.

  • Lithia: You mean to say that I'm a dead weight?
  • Aisha: No. What I mean is that for someone who just got to the Demon Realm, it would be dangerous. So, it's better to wait here for this one time.
  • Lithia: I, I can protect myself! Even though I may be new to the Demon World, I know very well about demons!
  • Lithia: Don't make hasty judgements when you don't even know about me!
  • Aisha: Well, that's not what I meant!
  • Chung: Wait! Both of you, calm down. Let's not scream at each other!
  • Raven: Aisha does have a point. We're not sure how strong you are. We haven't seen what you can do.
  • Raven: So, since we cannot set off right now, we should agree to watch the situation for now.
  • Aisha: If that is the case... then I'm okay with it.
  • Lithia: ... All right.
  • Haivan: So... are these the lands of your highness? It's quite... desolate.
  • Haivan: It's not even as cold as the White-Ghost Land... why are the lands void of vegetation?
  • Lu: Well... there are complications. I will let you know as time passes.
  • Rose: Anyhow, what about the supplies we asked for? I hope they're not damaged from the fall.
  • Haivan: Who do you think I am? Of course, I secured them! So what do I do with them?
  • Ciel: Let's go over the details when everyone gets here.

Quest Acceptance Prerequisites Objectives
  • Complete the Join Forces story quest
Description

The El Search Party explain to Lithia why they cannot enter the Land of Steel based on the reports from Shaddie.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Lithia: Whaaaaat~! You can't go to the Land of Steel at all? Why?
  • Elesis: I'm sure Aisha already told you... but the walls have been under heavy attack just couple days ago.
  • Elesis: The machine troops continued to assault us, preventing us from entering these lands.
  • Elesis: We intend to head to the Land of Steel, but we can't just pass the aerial island that produced all these machine troops.
  • Elesis: So, we are heading to the islands to remove the dangers.
  • Noah: There's also another problem. A disease is spreading in the Land of Steel.
  • Lithia: A disease?
  • Rose: Yes. And it's spreading to Red Demon Territory as well.
  • Rose: Since the Dream Demons are resistant to the disease, they offered to head towards the Land of Steel while we check out the aerial fortress.
  • Rose: We can listen to the reports from Shaddie, who just came back from the Land of Steel.
  • Shaddie: Yes! Shaddie here! Our 10th Land of Steel scouting hasn't yielded any new findings!'
  • Raven: That's a lot of scouting... We're in 2 digits now.
  • Shaddie: We went further than before but the roads were cut off by a pit again.
  • Shaddie: It was too massive for us to go around it and we deemed that it would go weel over our promised time so we came back!
  • Rose: Pit again? I hope it's not the abyss.
  • Shaddie: We felt no such aura from it! We suspect it's from all the mining!
  • Lithia: Wait, Mining? I heard the Land of Steel is full of treasures. Is that all gone now?
  • Ciel: How far have the rumors gone...
  • Lu: Treasures, I can see that. The metals collected from Land of Steel are very special and can be sold at high prices.
  • Haivan: What contamination do you guys speak of? I asked my father after hearing such words, but he had no clue.
  • Elesis: Winster does not know about the contamination here?
  • Haivan: He remembered that there was a disease here. But he said that a long time passed since then, so the disease would be gone now.
  • Haivan: I guess things are quite worse than I thought. What are the symptoms?
  • Lu: Mmm... at first the fish perished and plants withered. It wasn't long until the disease latched onto the humans.
  • Lu: Those who fell ill quickly became uncomfortable and were debilitated.
  • Lu: They could not stop coughing, suffered from nausea, and soon found themselves unable to move.
  • Rena: That's terrible...
  • Laby: Lu, did you suffer from the disease too?
  • Lu: I did not. Thinking about it now, it was strange for a disease.
  • Lu: It occurred simultaneously across the lands. Not all caught the disease even if they were living under the same roof with the sick.
  • Ara: No one could figure out the origins of the disease... No wonder it was rumored to be the curse of the previous king.
  • Lithia: Uneven contagion, contamination of water and soil, belated contagion onto humans... slow debilitation and different progress by case...
  • Lithia: So the land is full of minerals, right? Isn't that mining disease?
  • Aisha: Mining... disease? What is that?
  • Lithia: You don't know what mining disease is? That is...
  • Lithia: I see~ You don't know~ so looks like GREAT Lithia will have to explain that!
  • Aisha: What is that attitude...
  • Lu: You're talking about the disease from mining? That's far off from the disease in question.
  • Lithia: It's because the disease was named before the cause was found. It doesn't necessarily have to do with mining.
  • Lithia: It's more about being poisoned by it.
  • Noah: Poisoned?
  • Lithia: Yup. The disease comes from the soil contaminated by the special liquid used in refining minerals that miners carelessly throw away.
  • Raven: I have heard of such disease. It's not contagious, but if many are affected at the same time... The symptoms are quite similar too.
  • Lithia: Elrios also suffered a similar issue a long time ago. I'm sure that people who handle minerals like I do should know all about it.
  • Lu: Impossible! I would never allow such a thing to happen!
  • Add: If all people abided by the laws, the world would be void of criminals.
  • Add: I,m sure there's at least the possibility of someone who could have set up such a foul scheme.
  • Lu: No way. The only possible being who could have done so...
  • Lu: ......

Description

The El Search Party asks Haivan for help after finishing all preparations to head to the aerial fortess.

Quest Completion Dialogue
  • Haivan: I get it. You want me to set up for you guys to reach the island, right?
  • Elesis: Yes. We'll be headed towards the island. The Dream Demons of Torta will be going to the Land of Steel. We'll split two ways.
  • Raven: While we investigate the island, we need ways to keep in contact so we know what's going on in the Land of Steel.
  • Ricardo: Are we finally getting a move on? It's been so long, really~!
  • Lu: Hey, you said your name was Lithia, right?
  • Lithia: Hmm?
  • Lu: So if the mineral disease is the cause of all this... is there... a cure for it?
  • Lithia: I'm not sure about the cure... It's easy to prevent it.
  • Lithia: At the very least, you should not eat or come in contact within the vicinity of contamination.
  • Lithia: I'm not sure if this will be effective... but I might be able to come up with preventive medicine.
  • Lu: I see... in that case, could I ask of you to make some? Just in case.'
  • Lithia: Mmm... Okay. I'll try.
  • Rena: Then, let's make sure we're fully prepared before we set off.
  • Haivan: Is my main job communications?
  • Haivan: If you want me to be on a stable connection, I need to stay on this wall to manage the devices.
  • Elesis: Sorry, thanks for the work.
  • Haivan: Ah, this is nothing~ It might be a bit boring.
  • Aisha: When did you become so mature?
  • Haivan: Our queen has asked me to help the veterans, so of course I'd help.
  • Ara: You're talking about Nichel, right? She seems to accept things better now.
  • Ciel: Yeah, well I remember you laid down and threw tantrums that she can't become the queen even to the day of our departure from the White-Ghost Land.
  • Haivan: I, I didn't think it was that bad, was it?
  • Ara: How's White-Ghost Land? Is everyone doing fine?
  • Haivan: Yup. Everything is better now.
  • Haivan: Oh, it was after she became queen that I learned that it wasn't just Rigomor.
  • Laby: Oh, what was it?
  • Haivan: People who refused to fight each other and chose to hide away.
  • Haivan: Once Berthe died and the news spread that the White-Ghost King has returned, everyone returned home.
  • Haivan: We got so busy from the influx of people. I almost saw star spinning in front of my eyes.
  • Ara: That's good to hear... but we're going to have to add some more work on top of that. Sorry.
  • Haivan: You don't have to be sorry for me. The adults are the ones busy, not me.
  • Elesis: Why are you not busy? You should go help your father.
  • Haivan: Well, that's what I'm doing now. Young people like me are of no help in politics.
  • Haivan: Thanks to that, the seniors who lived under the memory of the White-Ghost King now have to work hard.
  • Laby: How's Nichel doing? Is she learning on her queenship?
  • Haivan: Mmm... Nichel is learning magic from the White-Ghost King.
  • Haivan: I think she's doing fine. I'm not sure why she's doing it, though.
  • Laby: Why? You don't like Nichel learning magic?
  • Haivan: Hey now, Nichel could already destroy the shells of Armadulla with bare fists at the age of six.
  • Haivan: Why would you resort to magic when you have that power?
  • Lu: The White-Ghost King was a very skilled magician. His potent barrier magic protected his allies.
  • Lu: Isn't he teaching that so that Nichel can protect not just herself but you all as well.
  • Haivan: Hnngn~
  • Haivan: I don't really like how Nichel became the queen. But...
  • Haivan: The security and peace that everyone feels stems not from the absence of Berthe, but from the presence of a King.
  • Haivan: It's funny, isn't it? I really hated how the adults always sought for the non-existent king...
  • Haivan: But looking at White-Ghost Land now, it makes me think... If I had succeeded, would things have turned for the better?
  • Lu: ......
  • Haivan: Of course, I wouldn't know. Maybe something expected would turn up, like how you guys showed up to foil my plans.
  • Haivan: I still think that if you guys didn't magically show up at our village, we wouldn't have the peace we have now.
  • Lu: Looks like your beliefs haven't changed much.
  • Haivan: Yeah. But... now I have a queen.
  • Haivan: So, as a loyal subject, I need to help restore the kingdom. Is that a good answer for you?
  • Ara: Looks like you had a great deal of though, Haivan.
  • Lu: How touching... kids grow so fast these days. You've definitely matured.
  • Ciel: ... So, why did you run away from home?
  • Haivan: Eck, when did you hear that?
  • Lithia: Heheh.
  • Elesis: Yeah, I'm told that Winster is worried sick because you ran away from home.
  • Lithia: Winster wasn't just worried. When he returned, Winster went to hug him and threw a fit.
  • Lithia: Wow, if I had a family like that, I'd never leave the house.
  • Aisha: So, why did you run away from home?
  • Haivan: I just wanted some fresh air!
  • Lithia: Fresh air~? Didn't you have a great dream?
  • Haivan: Are you going to keep talking? Wow, you have such a big mouth! You think I don't have stories to tell?
  • Haivan: Your highness! She's after the treasures buried in your lands! Isn't she a conniving thief?
  • Lithia: Eh? Your highness...?
  • Lu: Hmm~ is that your true plans?
  • Lithia: Eh... Hehe... Hem. Hem.
  • Lithia: Firstly, I'd like to apologize for my trespasses. I am sorry to hear of what has happened in the Land of Steel.
  • Lu: Oh ho.
  • Lithia: I hope my lacking skills are of some help. The full recovery of Land of Steel is the treasure I seek.
  • Haivan: Wow, how do you lie like that with a straight face!
  • Lu: How would you help? Are you talking about the preventive medicine?
  • Lithia: Yes! I have the materials for it, so I just need to concoct them. I might go through some trial and error since these are materials from the Demon Realm.
  • Lithia: That weird mage stuck in a weapon said he has some knowledge on the matter.
  • Lithia: Don't worry, I, Lithia, may have been tempted by treasures, but am not so cold-blooded to turn away from those that are suffering.
  • Lu: Ohohoho, you're quite a funny one. All right, I look forward to your work.
