Hans, Gramps, we've been waiting for ya.

Karl, Seria, we apologize for the wait.

Huh? Hans, isn't Tilith with you?

I'm afraid I asked Hans directly for help this time, so Tilith will not be joining us.

Are you even worth anything without Tilith though?

Seria, that's not very nice, you know...

Ho ho ho. By the way Karl, may I ask who these two ladies are?

Sure. They look to be from another world, and may have something to do with that report from the Hall...

...so I asked them to wait with us until you got here.

I'm Asahi, a Hunter! I'm looking for my friend Nanashi.

A Hunter?! I'm so jealous!

You get to use a "smartphone" to summon "demons" and all that!

And you're always out on a bunch of quests too!

Seria, you sound kinda angry... Are you sure you understood their story?

O-Of course I did!

We're stuck having to summon the spirits of warriors long gone, and they get to summon demons, out of all things!

Hehe. Well, I guess I can't say you're wrong.

Well, nice to meet you anyway. I'm Nozomi. Asahi and I come from the same world.

Ho ho ho. Nice to meet you as well. I am Grahdens.

Asahi and Nozomi, was it? Please feel free to call me "Elder Grah."

U-Umm...

I don't know about that...

Just ignore him.

Anyway, let me at least explain what's going on here.

Karl, there's no reason to be such a bore all the time...

These two seem to have come from another world called "Tokyo."

We were fighting a great snake called Shesha with the power to destroy all of Tokyo.

A great snake that can destroy worlds...

Shesha has consumed the souls of countless people, and even now continues its reign of terror over Tokyo.

It also has the power to alter dimensions.

I see. It looks like our stories have common ground after all.

Nozomi, my friend Nanashi, and I were all fighting together to defeat Shesha.

But suddenly, right in the middle of battle we...

We found ourselves here before we realized what had happened.

And that's when Seria and I found them and began our questioning.

I really hope Nanashi's okay...

He'll be fine.

He's a Hunter! He should be able to take care of himself.

He might even find his way back to Tokyo before we do.

You're right! He must be okay!

We should get moving too then! We don't wanna keep Nanashi waiting for us in Tokyo...

And as nice as that sounds, we still haven't figured out how to get them back home.

Hmm. Understood.

Well, I think if we make some small adjustments to the mission we received from the Hall, we can help make sense out of all this.

What?! You mean it?!

Ho ho ho. Well, I am a person of significance influence here, you know.

Trying to milk your Elder Summoner card...?

*Cough* In any case, according to the Hall's findings...

A great power has made it to Grand Gaia from another world, and powerful demonic presences have simultaneously surfaced.

And according to Asahi's story, it would seem that the source of this great and otherworldly power is Shesha.

Now the great power and the demons are reacting to one another causing a great disturbance in the area.

So what you're saying is if we beat that those demons, these two girls can finally go home?

That would be my guess.

Nozomi, did you hear that?!

It looks like we still have a shot.

However, we do have one problem.

A problem?

The presence of these two powers can be felt from various different locations.

And that means...that we have no clue of how to defeat either, right?

Well, I'm sure that won't be a problem. All we have to do is just beat them all up!

Seria...

Hehe. You're so reliable Seria!

She sure is.

Wh-What's that supposed to mean?!

Hans! Just what are you laughing at?!

Hmm. Well, Karl, Seria, let's leave this mission on Hans's hands.

Have Asahi and Nozomi join you...

...find the alien power that has infiltrated Grand Gaia, and eliminate the the demons.

I believe the three of you should do just fine?

Of course!

You got it!

Thanks everyone...

We're really thankful for your help. I honestly don't know what we would have done without you.

Well, you'll be helping us out too. And you both seem like good people anyway.

Just leave the rest up to us! We'll make sure to get you two back home!

Ho ho ho. Well, shall we get going?

The powers split into two different routes ahead. You should travel together until you meet the fork in the road.

Hans, I'm counting on you.

Hans, we're looking forward to working with you!

We'll do our best on the battlefield to prove ourselves useful.

Can't wait to get started.
