Ah, so I'm right... A fine performance, I must say. You had me completely fooled.

But I hope you'll always be humble and never forget what you had originally set out to do.

Oh, it's fiiine. There's more to this world than meets the eye, you know?

Too easy!

What are you so afraid of? Both the unnecessary length of your trunks and the sarcastic cut of your jib—it's all a defense mechanism.

I want to see how far Captain gets!

But you did.

Hate to interrupt a good fight, but...

Okay, sounds good. Threo, just behave yourself and follow me.

So? What do we do, Acting Captain?

Cagliostro's right. Plus it needs to pay for duping Ceodric!

That being the case, I assume we're gonna be stuck taking charge in the battle against Orologia.

Meh, I've never been big on torture anyway. But this does leave us with a problem though...

Isn't my cloak cool? I got everyone to match!

Huh?

How much chocolate did I get today? Oh, soooo much! I've got an endless supply. That's what happens when you're popular.

Ack! Are you still steamed about what happened back then?

Aaand if you're worried about more enemy attacks, Captain's crew, my avatars, and the rest of the Eternals are doing a nifty job of patrolling the streets.

...?

With my unparalleled sword accuracy and technique, I mastered the art of carving trees. Did you know?

Hahaha! Aren't I, though? By all means keep the compliments coming.

Not that. Weapons out—there's a monster just ahead!

Go back to the sea of stars and stay there.

Splendid! We should thank our lucky stars Captain is so dependable!

Huh?

Watching Captain in action hits me right in the feels.

Y-you're such a kindhearted soul, Lyria!

To make a spirit sword, I mean! After Captain levels up a bunch!

Eternal of the cardinal nine. Evil clashes with her sensitive heart, and so she hates all forms of malevolence.

Whoa there!

Wouldn't hurt to take a break, right? You siblings and all the little kiddies are always working so hard after all.

Hm? Am I? Oh, you mean that monster?

Well, I won't stop you if you want it that bad... Just don't say I didn't warn you!

Still, I won't stop you if you want to apologize for some closure. Maybe treat everyone to tea?

Out of the multitudes of simultaneously running timelines fueled by the boundary, you took a different route, and that became me.

A hot spring district sounds like the perfect place to have a get-together, don't you think?

But I'm sure you'll be fine. You're growing up so fast, Fif!

Well, nice to meetcha! You'll have earned my respect if you've got what it takes to brave those waters!

What? Didn't I tell you? I used to be a chef. I was the cream of the crop. But a life full of food became dull. So I made my sword-fighting hobby into a profession.

Whoa, you're a cold one. I haven't even addressed my swimwear yet.

Hehehe... Okay then. Here I come!

Yep.

I'm with you all the way on this one, so let's get out there and see what we can figure out!

'Dragon' is sort of a catch-all term for beings with immense power.

Well, Captain? Who's your lucky date going to be?
