To have taken down such a defense system like that...

I guess this is the power to be expected from one who has defeated a Fallen God.

But still, there's no way I'm giving up that which is sealed beyond the gate ahead!

Just look at you, Hans.

You're not even injured that badly, yet you still can't move?

Tsk, it annoys me to no end thinking that I had such a hard time dealing with you.

Huh? What do you mean, hurry on ahead?

Heh, you haven't been told anything, have you?

Come with me.

Let's go and see what kind of interesting trouble that woman has gotten herself in.

W-Wait. How could there be nothing?

Does this mean we were deceived?

How could we have been...

What is to be gained by leading us on like that?

Hey, Hans! Look!

It's just as I said.

Little Ms. Imperial Guard seems to be in a bit of trouble.

Lugina...

Heh he he. Stop it with the scary faces.

That power you're looking for is nowhere around here.

It's in the ruins of the gate.

I know because I've been sent to investigate it by the Elder Summoners.

However I've enjoyed listening to your emphatic chatter.

You vulgar imbecile.

Glare at me as much as you want, the gate's not gonna open.

Nngh...

Hans.

How can you stand to be around such a vulgar man for so long?

You know what I mean, right?

This man is absolute garbage!

I'm just waiting for the day you accept my invitation.

Ooh, I'm so jealous! I wanted to be invited too, you know!

Though it'd be a shame to waste my time on your fruitless cause.

Nngh.

Remember this.

One day I'll make you regret all that you've done.

Heh, she's finally gone.

Hey, Hans.

Why do you look so calm all of the sudden?

Surely you don't think that I've forgiven you, do you?

I'm gonna grow even more powerful than I was before.

And once I do, I'm gonna make as much use of you as I can.

Don't forget it!

Heh.

Oh, and one more thing...

It seems you really had no idea what we after this time.

At first, I thought you were just trying to trick me so you could get the jump on me.

But in the end it seems you were just as foolish as you appeared!

The next accomplishment to be made will be mine.

And you'd better be thankful for all that I, the most incredibly powerful Summoner alive, have done for you!

I see, so the gate has vanished.

That's fine. There's no need to apologize.

You did your best with what was a difficult task.

Yes, take care and return safely.

He he he.

It seems everything was exactly as you said.

It seems the contract is complete.

It's about time for us to move out as well.

Yes, my master anticipates your deployment as well.

He he he.
