Shiiiiiing!
The moment we leave the light.
The magic-amplifying crystal shatters into glittering fragments.
Still holding Sara, I descend to the floor.
Feil watches Sara and me with an expression of utmost disbelief.
Feil: That's… impossible…
Zephyr and the others come running.
Kana/Lippy: Sara! / Lady Sara!
Zephyr: Man. Pretty showy entrance, partner.
Link: Zephyr, Sara's sight!
Zephyr: Yeah! Got it! —Dispel!
Zephyr's spell activates, and the seal on Sara's eyes vanishes.
Sara: …mm…
There is light in her eyes.
Sara: Kana… Lippy… Zephyr…
One by one, she meets their eyes directly and calls their names.
Kana: Ooh… sniff…! Saraaaaa!
Kana hugs Sara without hesitation.
Sara: Thanks…! Everyone… I'm sorry for worrying you… I'm all right now!
Lippy: Lady Sara…! Welcome back! And Master Link…
Zephyr: Geez… you're really something… especially when it comes to Sara.
I can feel Zephyr's pride even as he teases us.
Link: Well, you're happy too, Zephyr.
Zephyr: --Huh?
Link: You're glad that Sara and I managed to come back together.
Zephyr: Well, maybe.
Then a voice cuts through our joy.
Yuri: Heeey. Sorry to interrupt the tearful reunion and all, but aren't you forgetting something?
Velvet: Right. There are still loose ends.
At their prompting, we look in his direction.
Feil: ...tch…
Feil's fists tremble as he stares at us in shock.
Feil: How…!? That's impossible! What kind of power could've possibly brought her back…!?
Zephyr: Our bonds. Not like you'd know, always wrapped up in your own little world.
Zephyr: There's something… in this world that even the power of ruin can't destroy!
Feil: There's… there's no way…
Feil: There's no way you could have something like that!
His eyes are filled with a mad light, and they shine suspiciously.
Then Feil calls its name.
Feil: ASMODEUUUUUUUS!!!
…Ohhhhhhhhh…
The roar of the demon echoes in response to his scream.
A whirling tornado of miasma springs up.
Link: Huh!?
Inside the tornado, I can make out a figure…
Feil: Arrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
When he moves his grotesque, transformed body, bolts of darkness ring out and destroy the surrounding pillars.
Where the bolts strike, shadows are left behind and form into roaring monsters.
Lippy: What's this!? Could he have fused with the demon!?
Zephyr: That bastard… he changed himself into a monster… he really doesn't know when to quit…
Kana: This… is also part of our fate. Let's settle this. Time to punish you!
Velvet: Your fate… huh… ...In that case, I'll leave him to you. I'll take out the other monsters!
Yuri: Then I guess I'll do the same.
Yuri: I'm surprised. I'd have thought you were the type to wanna kill it yourself.
Velvet: I would if he were part of my fate. But that's not the case.
Yuri: Guess that's true.
Velvet: He's your enemy, right? You should be the ones to finish this.
Sara: ...Thank you, Yuri, Velvet.
Their strength emboldens us, and we turn to face him, preparing ourselves.
Feil: To destroy… the power of destruction… that's everything to my family… There is nothing… that can't be destroyed!
...We have to put an end to his evil here.
Link: We'll defeat your twisted ideals!
Link: Let's go, everyone! We'll defeat him with our strength!
Sara/Lippy/Zephyr/Kana: Yeah!
