123. Final Decision
To guard them all? What a naive idea! There seems to be a need for me to stay by her side to continuously correct it.
3 scenes, 55 lines
1. Final Decision
14 linesWhen Anubis and Set fought fiercely, the group which confronted Nephthys...
Um...!
Sova!
...! I'm... okay...
Hm... I didn't expect her to be this strong...
Of course, this mechanical body was a gift granted by Lord Wadjet. Compared to this body, you guys are as weak as ants.
Boohoo... We can't win even with so many of us. It's not fair...!
This is a tricky one... What do we do? Do you have any plan, Awakener?
Plan...? Well...
(What should we do...?!)
At this moment, Nephthys was the only person left standing. Despite being so outnumbered, she only suffered a few scratches. The gap between their strength was evident.
(Do we have no choice but to give up...? But we're so close to saving Rayna...)
, At this moment.
...Awakener.
2. Stage 123-3, before the battle
15 linesSova...?
Shhh... Don't move. Listen to me.
I'll attack right after I give the signal. I will create an opportunity for the rest of you to take the relic and run.
What are you...
Stay quiet. We don't have any other choice. You do understand that the Relic cannot fall into the hands of Rasparta, right?
For Teslovik, and for... saving your sister Rayna. Please, do as I say.
How could I possibly agree to this... but...
(... Perhaps Sova is right. The Relic cannot... Rasparta... but...!)
(Do I really have to do this? Is it right to rely on my companions and even let them sacrifice themselves once again? But I have no other choice if I want to save Rayna...)
(''No choice''...? Am I going to give up and choose to run away like I did in Eastrise?)
I don't know what you two are whispering about, but are you ready to lose your life? I'll be quick about it.
I don't want to make the same mistake again... Absolutely not!
Awakener!?
What...?!
Aaaaahhh!
3. Stage 123-10, after the battle
26 linesUh...! How... is this possible...!
No way... Awakener, that's impressive!
Great... Awesome! Nephthys is defeated!
I never thought... you have so strong power...!
Huh... Uh, me...? Did I... really defeat her...?
...Awakener.
Before reacting to it as Awakener was surrounded by excited companions, the angry voice of Nevka sounded.
Nevka glared at Awakener with a stern face...
You idiot!!!!
AAAH!!!
Hey, what are you shouting at...
How can I not?! How could you go up against her all by yourself?!
... Sorry.
Do you think you can just get away by saying sorry? You're lucky to have won, but you could've died with even just a tiny mistake!
I guess so... But if I didn't act just now, I definitely wouldn't be able to forgive myself. I won't compromise on this.
Never again will I succumb to strong power, nor will I lose my companions because of this. Besides...
Awakener...?
Awakener looked to Eriri.
I'll come straight to the point. From now on, will you continue to work with us, with Teslovik, to the benefit of both parties? Can I trust you on that?
Or... are our goals no longer the same?
, The last thing I want to do is not do anything about the people suffering in front of me.
Because when we can finally save Rayna, I want her to be proud of having me as her brother.
Guys... this is my conclusion. And my belief...
What can I say? If your mind is made up... Well then, I will keep what you just said in mind.
