Dialogue
Blazing Sun Search
Take out the enemies blocking your path
- (Idle, upon entering combat)
- Romeul?: ...
- (Ongoing)
- Fairy: Unknown signal interference detected. Running diagnostics now.
- Billy: Don't worry, we'll take care of it in no time!
- (After defeating Romeul?)
Hunter and Prey
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
Hunter and PreyVideo Summary: When old enemies resurface, they always bring some new tricks with them.
Story Description: There's more than one mech Romeul. More and more units are gathering. Worse yet, they speak — and it's not Romeul, but a familiar foe...
- Cissia: This thing fights just like Romeul... Could it be...?
- Under sustained attacks, Mech Romeul finally drops to the ground, unresponsive.
- Billy: Don't worry! Enemies like this are nothing to S Billy! Bring as many as you want!
- Romeul?: ...
- Several Mech Romeul units appear one after another, gradually closing in like a pack of wolves on the hunt.
- Billy: Oh come on, I just said that! Is everything I say coming true today or something?! You know what, when we're out of the Hollow, I'm gonna win the lottery, pay off my advance, and still have enough left to buy the latest Starlight Knight holo cards!
They're mass-produced...- (ProtagonistProtagonist): They're (mass-produced...mass-produced... /
mass-produced...?mass-produced...?) This is not good. There are too many of (them.them. / them!them!) - Billy: Don't worry, Manager! Fighting outnumbered is a Starlight Knight's specialty. They're just a bunch of scrap metal. Just round 'em up and take 'em out with a single dazzling attack—
- Romeul?: Yo, it's been a while.
- Billy: Y—Y—You... You can talk!?
- Cissia: You can talk too! What are you so surprised about!
- Romeul?: Running into you here was well within my calculations... though I must say, there are a few... unexpected surprises.
- Romeul?: Your new toys look way more fun than what I've got here!
- That way of talking...
- Why does it feel oddly familiar...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): That way of talking... Why does it feel oddly familiar...?
- Romeul?: Ah, right! Of course you wouldn't recognize me like this. Here, my business card.
- Billy: What business card? Oh no... M—M—M—Manager, something's wrong! I can't move!
- (SiblingSibling): What's going on? Billy's systems are reading normal, and I'm not detecting any Ether-based attacks!
- Billy: I—I—It's a multi-vector t—t—trojan! But my firewall is brand new! H—H—How is this even possible...?
- Romeul?: No firewall can hold against trojans forever. There'll always be one that finds its way through~
- Romeul?: In a closed network like this, release millions of trojans in a second, and one will inevitably break through the walls — unless your opponent can build millions of walls just as fast.
- Romeul?: Now then... Aren't you gonna come out and say hello, Fairy?
- You're not Romeul!
- You are... Youkai?!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Youkai?! Why are you here? And why are you using Romeul's identity...?
- Romeul?: Shhh... Don't spoil the fun of our little hunting game. Well then, hunters who've become the prey, your guns won't fire anymore. So tell me, how will you survive when the wolves start closing in?
- Billy: D—D—Don't worry about me! I'll figure something out! Cissia, p—p—protect the Manager!
Prey & Predator

Prey & PredatorVideo Summary: When old enemies resurface, they always bring some new tricks with them.
- (A cinematic plays)
- Romeul?: Are you ready, my prey?
- Romeul?: I'm gonna start counting down
- Romeul?: Three...
- Romeul?: Two...
- Romeul?: One!
- (Promeia stands atop a nearby tower)
- Promeia: The hunt begins
- (She swoops down and joins Cissia in fighting the Mech Romeuls)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Promeia!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): What in the world...?
- (Cinematic ends)
Krampus's Sharpest Blade
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
Krampus's Sharpest BladeVideo Summary: When old enemies resurface, they always bring some new tricks with them.
Story Description: After speaking with everyone, Promeia provides the info she has gathered about Rusty Cliff. She discovers that everyone's clues about Ramiel overlap significantly, so they decide to prioritize searching for Ramiel.
- Promeia: Talk. Whose orders are you following?
- Promeia had a backup plan: she traps Mech Romeul, hoping to extract some useful information. But the light in its eyes flickers briefly, then goes completely dark. It was forcibly shut down.
- Promeia: It's gone.
- Cissia: ...
- Thank you.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Thank you, Promeia. If you hadn't...
- Promeia: Hold on.
- Promeia: Come out. You know there's no point in hiding.
- Contact From Rusty Cliff: ...It is an honor to meet you, Judge Promeia. Let me be clear up front: what just happened to you all has nothing to do with me.
- Promeia: Are these mechs Rusty Cliff's assets?
- Contact From Rusty Cliff: I have no clue. My job's to monitor and ensure the transport route stays secure. Don't blame me for staying out of it. It's way above my pay grade. Trust me, I just work here.
- Promeia: Don't say anything unnecessary. I know your every move.
- Contact From Rusty Cliff: Ah, right, of course. Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here in one piece. We were notified a few days ago that a Krampus Judge would be coming to investigate, but I didn't think it would be you....
- Promeia: Last warning. Don't say anything unnecessary.
- Contact From Rusty Cliff: ...Understood.
- Promeia: Leave. And when you report back, tell your superiors: don't cross the line.
- Contact From Rusty Cliff: But I'm not done monitoring the route yet. If I can't confirm it's secure, that "Big Guy's" firepower will be...
- Promeia: ...
- Contact From Rusty Cliff: Understood. I'm heading back to deliver the message now.
- The Rusty Cliff contact leaves without looking back.
- Promeia: Alright, I'll cut to the chase. It's getting more dangerous here by the minute. Leave now. Don't stick around.
- (SiblingSibling): More dangerous? Because of Rusty Cliff Corp?
- Promeia: ...How much do you know?
- You fill Promeia in on what you heard from Caesar.
- Promeia: Rusty Cliff promised they'd keep a low profile and wouldn't disrupt normal life in the Outer Ring. Looks like they're starting to cross that line. Go home. You don't need to get caught up in this.
- (SiblingSibling): No, we can't go back yet.
- Promeia: Reason?
- We're looking for Ramiel...
- It's about the competition...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): We're looking for Ramiel. It's about the competition.
- You bring Promeia up to speed on everything Cissia and Billy know.
- (SiblingSibling): So... That's the situation. We'll do our best to avoid TOPS. Whatever their goal is, as long as it's not related to Ramiel, there's no reason for us to get involved.
- Promeia: ...
- Promeia: I'll go with you.
- (SiblingSibling): You mean you'll help us look for her?
- Promeia: Yes. Rusty Cliff won't bother you with me by your side.
- Cissia: Wait, I... I object! This is way too suspicious! You're with TOPS — why would you suddenly help us? This has nothing to do with your mission!
- Promeia: I can't disclose the details of my mission, but I'll tell you what I can.
- Promeia: I'm investigating the "Big Guy" that contact mentioned. It was suddenly deployed after the incident at the competition.
- Promeia: In addition, according to Krampus intel, Rusty Cliff is also actively searching for Ramiel. Following those leads led me to you. I'm afraid this is not a coincidence.
- Promeia: So I want to find her too, and ask her what she took from Rusty Cliff, or... what Rusty Cliff wants from her.
- (SiblingSibling): So... the incident at the competition, Ramiel's whereabouts, Rusty Cliff's operations in the Outer Ring... These are likely not separate events. They're all connected by an invisible thread, and Ramiel's holding the other end of it!
- Let's team up then.
- Krampus can be trusted.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Let's team up then. No matter what the rest of TOPS is like, Krampus can be (trusted.trusted. /
trusted!trusted!) - Promeia: Seems my colleagues left a good impression. Don't worry, I'll make sure I live up to it.
- Billy: Phew— there we go! I can move now!
- Fairy: A comprehensive scan and cleanup have been performed on Billy. His firewall has been updated to isolate unauthorized data packets disguised as local Hollow environment data — especially deceptive distress signals tagged "Starlight Knight."
- (SiblingSibling): What was that last part? (Why did you mention it specifically? Was that how Billy got tricked?Why did you mention it specifically? Was that how Billy got tricked? /
That's oddly specific... Was that what got Billy?That's oddly specific... Was that what got Billy?) - Billy: Uh... Anyway, thank you so much! Manager's AI assistant rocks! And thank you, Promeia — for protecting the Manager back there! I won't forget that!
- Cissia: ...Th—Thanks for helping earlier.
- Promeia: Hm? Pardon?
- Cissia: I said! This PubSec Officer will be watching you! The second I spot any suspicious behavior, I... will call in a truckload of backup from Public Security!
- Promeia: ...Okay. Noted.
