Act II: The False-Stepped Coppélia (5/5)

Very well. I shall remain here to guard the church, as always. I hope you return with good tidings, Fujimaru.

P-please come back as soon as you can! And Gawain, if you ever feel like staying here yourself, I'd be more than okay with it!

All right, here we are once again: the Flank Separator.

I feel I must ask... Is THIS really how we will get to the rear side?

You bet, Sir Gawain! The flank is one of the human body's most vulnerable points!

No living creature can ignore being tickled there! SE.RA.PH won't be able to resist turning over!

I hope that doesn't actually happen...at least, not like this. But then again, this is BB we're talking about.

I guess there's only one way to find out.

Give it a shot, Fujimaru. I'll pick up the pieces.

...Gentle strokes... How very delicate of you, Master. You're a real gentleman, aren't you.

Still, what intensity... Like getting punched by a Berserker!

That's it! No need to hold back! Let it all out!

？！

...Oh? Could it be...?

...and now THIS is happening...

H-hey, easy does it! That's a sensitive spot, you know!

You're going to affect everything if you do that! Keep it to just touching this time!

Hmph! All those items I sold you out of the goodness of my heart, and this is how you repay me... BB is most displeased!

This won't get you any closer to that rear side you so yearn to visit, you know! I won't let you! You've got to be punished for this little stunt first, Senpai!

Go get 'em, Sentinel!

On it! I've been waiting forever for my turn!

...Wait. Why am I literally in the dark? Is this one of those Alter versions that's all the rage now?

What the hell is the lighting crew doing!? The backlight's so strong you can't see me at all!

Hmm... I guess this is what happens when you put a Sentinel together on short notice...

But, you've had plenty of chances to shine before, Elisabeth, so I'm sure you can make it work!

Okay, cue the music! Don't let her appearance fool you, Senpai. Her singing still packs a wallop!

An exclusive concert from nobody's favorite idol should be a nice way to wrap up the first half of this quest. Enjoy♡

I'll be baaaaaaaaack! Don't you forgeeeeeet it!

Hmm, too bad. Oh well, I'm sure you'll eventually get to see Elisabeth in another event!

Anyway, since you really gave it your all this time, Senpai, I won't get in your way anymore.

Here you go! At long last!

What could be waiting on the rear side? Get ready to

...Hold it. What do you think you're doing, Lip? I didn't order you to come here!

Aaahhh.

Aaahhh!!!

...! Hurry up, Fujimaru! If Lip looks at us, it's all over!

Knead harder! Or just start punching! Do whatever it takes to turn this place over!

...! Hurry, everyone! I shall deal with her!

Aaahhh, aaahhh!

Guh! Those claws are even more devastating than they appear! I won't be able to hold her back long!

Don't do it, pretty boy! You can't stop a Sentinel on your own!

Get away from her! Or just run for it! Even the sun has to set sometime, Sir Gawain!

Hrnnn!

Aaahhh!!!

？！

There's no time! Go on, I'll blow her sky-high!

Whoa, the world's flipping over just around you, Master! That must be the rear side entrance!

But, what about Gawain!? Sir Gawaaaaaaiiiiiin!
