Part 70: Sun Door 3: The Arena - Hard
-Primal Grounds-Your aid, please!
Do it!
Heeheeheehee!
Once you've found the Tournament Invitation on the third floor of the Looking Glass, you can access the next stage of the Arena.
The Normal Arena is easy enough to clear right when you first unlock it, but Hard Arena's a good deal tougher. Ailments are definitely not working in your favor anymore. You'd be smart to leave it until you've completed another trial or two, at least.
-Silence-
Mysterious Gentlefriend: Ah! Good day. It's nice to see you. So, would you like to participate again? ...Oh? Is that an invitation I see? Could I trouble you to hand it over?
The Tournament Invitation was carefully inspected.
Mysterious Gentlefriend: Thank you. You may now challenge the hard arena whenever you see fit. Well, what would you like to do now?
Mysterious Gentlefriend: Splendid! Well, then, if you don't mind following me...
-Grand Arena-
Cheerful Host: It is now the moment you've all been waiting for! Tonight, four new warriors will be stepping up to the plate and challenging the hard arena! So let's get right to introducing our fierce fighters, shall we? In the blue corner, we are led by Father Kevin Graham of the Septian Church's Gralsritter! Standing against them in the red corner, we have the mysterious Team Black Jaegers! Let the first round begiiiiiin! Step on up and ready your weapons!
Cheerful Host: Ready... FIGHT!
-Till the Night of Glory-
This is all so hauntingly familiar.
the cats can instakill by the way
Numbers like these mean the group's probably underleveled.
-Grand Arena-
Cheerful Host: The match is decided! The winner is... Father Graham's team!
Cheerful Host: Let's keep up this momentum! First, allow me to introduce who will be fighting in the second round! In the blue corner, we are led by Father Kevin Graham of the Septian Church's Gralsritter! Standing against them in the red corner, we have the Thirteen Factories-manufactured Team Reingold! Step on up and ready your weapons!
Cheerful Host: Ready... FIGHT!
-Till the Night of Glory-
That's a whole lot of big iron.
They sure do love their data. Not that I'm complaining.
-Grand Arena-
Cheerful Host: The match is decided! The winner is... Father Graham's team!
Cheerful Host: The moment is upon us at last! It is time for the final round to begiiiin! Will our challengers emerge victorious one last time? You won't have to wait long to find out! Well, allow me to introduce our final teams! In the blue corner, we are led by Father Kevin Graham of the Septian Church's Gralsritter! Standing against them in the red corner, we have what may be an ancient dragon: Team Baby Dragon! Step on up and ready your weapons!
Cheerful Host: Ready... FIGHT!
-Till the Night of Glory-
Sorry, Mary.
These frigging seahorses.
Monstrous Bubble is all that the Seahorse Demons will do: a magic attack that can inflict Blind or Sleep in a small AoE. The problem is there are so many and they just keep doing it so fast and basically these are the new Abyss Worms--another dangerous monster that you need to destroy as efficiently as possible.
Just smear some tomato on that chassis, she'll be good as new.

THE BUBBLES
bubbles is over
-Grand Arena-
Cheerful Host: The match is decided! The winner is... Father Graham's team! They've done it! Father Graham's team has conquered the hard arena!
Mysterious Gentlefriend: Congratulations to all of you on your victory! That really was quite a show of skill. Your matches were a joy to watch. These are but a small token of my appreciation for putting on such a fine show.
Received Spiritual.
Received 10,000 mira.
Mysterious Gentlefriend: You've now earned the right to challenge the nightmare arena. You will still need to find an invitation in order to do so, however. Should you find one, please do come back here.
Spiritual would've been a total game-changer against Tiny Ragnard and his Enchantment Under the Sea Band, but the Black Jaegers and Team Reingold would have been a lot rougher for whoever was using it.
