...so you too use techniques capable of destroying the gods.

And not only that, it also looks like you have powers that differ from those of any other being I've encountered.

It's as if you are blessed with someone's divine protection...

It would seem you are the "hope" they were referring to...

How fascinating. I will not underestimate you as my enemy any longer.

Just who or what are you...?

Hmph, your question leads me to believe that you haven't met them yet.

I am the War Demon Shusui.

The ruler of this region.

In other words, I am the one you are looking for.

You're the ruling demon?!

But why would you...?!

I am testing those who come from Grand Gaia.

I want to see if they are worthy of facing me in battle.

I shall wait for you in the Soaring Tree Tower.

If you manage to satisfy me then, I will listen to whatever you have to say.

Grr...

It seems like that demon wasn't fighting us seriously earlier.

He released such a powerful force when he left...

But I wonder if we got lucky finding our target so early on.

He he.

Well, since our destination is already settled, we should head towards the next area.

I want to know what Karl and Seria are up to.
