Part 90: The Demon Awakens

Whatever went wrong has caused a great deal of the lab equipment to erupt into flames.

Turn off the power! The experiment is over! Do you hear me?


The machine around Nicolai is smoking.


Kato shuts off the power. It's too bad he didn't think of that before everything went kaboom.

What the hell are you doing, Kato!?
Don't you know, doctor? His ego was the only thing containing the monster.



Now it's been released.
What did you say!?




He, uh, he doesn't look so good.

Ah ha. Haha hahaha!



Oh! Look, his face has changed!
Nicolai!
Nicolai's ego...it's been swallowed up.



You foolish, pathetic mortals.


A bunch of soldiers rush in. These guys couldn't handle the dog, but they think they can take on the real thing?

I can't thank you enough for finally ridding me of that annoying human. He was so intensely boring.



It can't be!
He's been taken over by Astaroth!

Thanks for pointing that out, Grandpa Obvious.



Soldier: Open fire!


Now it's Nicolai Astaroth's turn.




Once the soldiers are vaporized, Astaroth floats down to the floor.

I have been brought back to this world solely to lead it into the fiery pits of Hell.



Mutant Apes!



Yes, Master!
...You can come out now.

Huh?


Oh.

How ya doing, Bright Eyes?



You are a stubborn fool.
It sounds like someone here woke up on the wrong side of the bed.



Huh? What?
Yuri...



Okay, who's first? Who wants to dance?
Sadly, I have other business to attend to.
C'mon, don't be like that! I came to see ya!



Hmph.


Coward!



You bastard!
After him!
Yes, Master!


Everyone can teleport except me.



Huh? Hey! Hey! Is everybody leaving!?



Doctor, we're going after Astaroth. Deal with things here as you wish.



Wait a minute!



We should leave, too.
She's right. We've gotta go after Nicolai!
This is NOT looking good!



You'll pay! I won't let you get away with ruining my experiment!! Uwaaah!!
