I-It can't be! That's impossible.

You defeated Cardes too!?

N-No, I don't doubt you...

Understood. I'll take care of this as carefully as I can.

Yes. There's no need to worry about that.

I'll do my best not to let you down.

Phew... Things are unraveling a lot quicker than I had expected.

Huh, could that be...

Hehe, so we meet again.

So I take it you've defeated Lugina?

Surely defeating such a weak Summoner was no problem for you, having already defeated two of the Four Fallen Gods?

Hehe, don't look at me like that.

I understand how much more powerful you really are than him.

So, let me ask you once more.

Won't you leave the Akras Summoners' Hall behind and come work with us?

We didn't get enough time to talk last time since we were so rudely interrupted.

But I'm serious.

Hehe, it's obvious that such a sudden invitation would perplex you.

Just let me tell you one thing. The ruling system in Elgaia is broken.

And we're the only ones who can fix it.

You can see what's going on too, right?

Instead of a republic, the world is being run by an organization of Summoners.

Long ago, there were a few who escaped the tragic clash with the gods.

They led the people and formed the Randall Empire.

Then, a long time after the empire was formed...

...several groups formed in opposition of Randall Empire's privileged class.

They formed the Elgaia Federation.

More recently, it was Elgaia that first began to shift.

During this shift the Summoners appeared, as well as one who wished to bring them all together.

They formed the Akras Summoners' Hall.

The Summoners of Old who put together the Akras Summoners' Hall...

...also known as the "Original Summoners" having been the first to cross through the gate...

...in using the awesome summoning powers that had acquired...

...formed one of the greatest organizations in all of Elgaia.

With the immense power of the Summoners, this organization gradually took economic control as well.

Before anyone realized it the republic had become a mere shell of its former self.

Now, both the Randall Empire and the Elgaia Federation are nothing more than empty frames.

Hehe, the look on your face tells me you've already come to understand this.

However, you seem to have no issue with this.

Of course, who controls what really has nothing to do with normal people.

But the world shouldn't be taken so lightly.

I wonder if you'd still stand beside the Summoners' Hall if you knew their dark side.

If you promise to align yourself with us from now on I'll tell you everything.

Hehe, but there's no need to hurry.

Because regardless of what happens, once I get my hands on the power that's hidden here...

...you'll have no choice but to follow us on our righteous path.

......

Well then, I should be going.

I look forward to speaking with you again, uninterrupted by that vulgar fool.
