Part 100: 8/22/09

8/22/09

Bebe and I went down to the movies today.



You are in luck!
Zey are showing French films!
It eez ze perfect opportunity for you to learn French! Ne?
You can go!? Yatta! Zat eez great!
> Bebe seems happy…

It’s hard to watch subtitled things at times but the movies were pretty good nonetheless.



Let’s go find our seats, Aelita-sama.
> ………
> You had fun watching the movie and learning some common French phrases.
Zat was fun. I ‘aven’t ‘eard my ‘ome language in a long time.
It would be nice if you came to my ‘ome country one day…
Well, let us go home! Hai!
> After saying goodbye to Bebe, you decided to go back to the dorm.

Mitsuru wasn’t around when I got back.



Isn’t this around the time when more cases of “Apathy Syndrome” start occurring?
I guess it just seems different because we’re on break.

I don’t want to delay in trying to make a difference this time, things are just getting worse and worse faster and faster.



The more victims there are, the stronger the Shadow.
Based on our data so far, the next Shadow will most likely be stronger than the last.

So even with her gone, it’s time to hit the Shadows hard and fast.



But, I’m here, so we can still go to Tartarus.

Yukari’s back to thinking about what those Strega weirdos said.



What do you think will happen to us if the Dark Hour disappears?
We’ll go back to normal.
Yeah, that’s what I think too.
Those Strega guys said our Persona abilities will disappear without a trace.
So, we’ll probably just go back to being ordinary high school students.

But to stop anyone else from becoming Lost, it’s worth it.



There are only four Shadows left… We have to defeat them and stop the damage they’re causing to society.
I’ve read some of those blogs…
A girl wrote about the suffering she experienced when she was one of The Lost…
And some guy posted a message about his parents becoming victims…
It’s so sad…

We returned to Tartarus, this time with Koro-chan helping us out.



Please be careful.

We pushed on through the Shadows for quite some time before Fuuka got a reading on the next Guardian.



There’s a strong presence on the 110th floor. Please be careful.

This time it was one strong one.

Video- “Natural Dancer”

Watch

These things are always kind of creepy.



Boss Battle: Natural Dancer
This guy’s a real pain in the ass honestly. He’s immune to Wind and mainly attacks with powerful Wind attacks and Light magic. He’s also got a Charm ability and can give himself a physical repel shield. Physical attacks are by far your best bet against him, and because she basically nullifies her own attacks Aigis is great to bring along to break the Tetrakarn shield. Yukari’s also valuable, as she laughs off the Wind magic and can remove Charm. Beat this dumb thing down while staying alive as best you can, being in Great condition so you can drop a critical hit on his face will really help.

We pushed on through to the next dead end after that.



Good job. Please come back to the entrance.

These old documents are getting more and more interesting.



I headed down to the Velvet Room to turn in the horrible bits of Shadows Elizabeth asked me to get.



You have claimed part of your enemy’s head, just as the samurai did long ago.
Consider it a sign of your victory.
Please accept your reward.
> Obtained Precious Egg x 2.

I don’t think she even cares about the actual items either, it’s just to make me have to kill a bunch of the things.



I’m sure you’re wondering why I requested this item.
That’s not what matters, though. What’s important is that you defeated the Champion Knight.
I am thrilled to see you getting stronger…
Please accept your reward.
> Obtained Greaves of Dawn.

Then again that is why we’re here.



Well done. You fulfilled my request before the deadline.
However, we still do not know how high up the tower extends…
How many floors could it possibly have…?
Please accept your reward.
> Obtained 120000 yen.

Oh, and remind me never to go to Doctor Sword, MD.



I heard that this katana, moving independently of its owner, lopped off a gangrenous limb in one swipe…
What a boisterous katana this is! I’d like to see that someday.
Please accept your reward.
> Obtained Opal x 3.

He is not a good doctor.
