Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga

Part 108




Update 54:

Meet the first of the optional bosses. (Veoh)
It is an archangel that believes he is in SMT2. (Viddler)
It is Uriel! (Youtube)

Strangely, Youtube kind of makes my videos look better than the other video things.


It lies in the same room where one fights Abbadon, the room with the researched victims of the Cuvier Syndrome.




There it goes. Uriel. The first of the optional bosses in DDS2.



"These stone dolls...
I have seen them before.

Yes. We took the betrayers and turned them to stone.

No, this is not the same.
I thirst... I must find a way to rid myself of this thirst!"




Thus, the first battle begins.

Uriel is aligned with Fire, and thus, he is weak against Ice.
Unfortunately, Sera and Serph are equally weak against the igneous element, and not a single member carries Void Fire due to idiocy on my part.
Not really a problem, though.

Megido is not exactly the most effective attack out there.



While the cost of this one is steeper, it is also much more worthwhile.

Once again due to the very very nifty Debilitate effect it carries with it.




Disasociative Personality Disorder!





And now his main SKILL. A rather strong Fire-based spell.



Unfortunately, by then, he has been debilitated to hell, so it is almost useless.



He also uses Agi-type spells. Ineffectively.

He's lost it now completely.

Let's see what a Charged Bufudyne does.
I messed up here, I could've had Niflheim equipped.
Maybe for the next angel.



Well that is certainly effective.




He has not been consumed. He escaped. He is out there.



"I see...
The Director definitely keeps powerful company.
That means there's still three left...

You've gotta do something about the others..."


Since that is over and done, let's see what they have to say in other locations.

"I created friends using the images of people who I kne and cared about.
They told me to erase everyone when I created the Junkyard... But I couldn't do it.
I'm sorry Heat.
I am sorry Argilla...
Everyone...
It's cruel, isn't it?
You can blame me."




"It might have started out like dat, but now we're just ourselves, ja?
Heat and Argilla chose deir own paths...
Just like us."




"Varin was correct... But in a way, also mistaken."




The wreckage is still there.



This is the next target. But it will have to wait a while.



First let us see what is in the Underground city.

Yes! I want another one!



"I can't sell them unless I hee-ho have one...
I prolly won't make another one 'till you hee the one you have."

Asshole should not be offering then.


Let's see the proper shop.




"Good business means doing whatever it takes to support your customers.
I am sure my husband would agree."




Let's sell the flowers.



"Congratulations, you're now Rank 6!
Give me a second, alright? I'll update the inventory."





Well that certainly was profitable. But the funds shall be whittled down once more, there are goodies to be acquired.
Notice: Al Azif: It is quite a famous book. Written by a certain mad arab.

 It is the Necronomicon by Abdul Alhazred wikilink

God damn, this one is EXPENSIVE.
Still, extremely useful before one grinds enough to get Auto Soma. And there is a LOT of grinding before that can be acquired.

And even then, it has its uses.



"You'll need 5061 more points to get to the next rank.
You're almost at the top rank. I have a little surprise that's going to blow you away."





"I hope it's not too late..."
The meaning of that shall be apparent shortly. And it has been clarified before. Remember the cutscenes...




"Let's hurry to the airport."






"We should stay positive, ja?
Or else... It's too sad..."






"Won't it be hot?"
Heat will be the least of their worries there. Besides, he is dead.

"Have you started growing again?"




"With her last remaining moments, she is acting of her own free will for the very first time.
Let's assist her to the best of our abilities."


Welp. Sera is dying.

NEXT: Back to the prison.
