[Serin]

....?

As its magic power grows,

the Magic Circle is nearing completion. The symbol which I've asked you for is the last material needed for summoning Dark Lord.

However, the power of that

symbol can be used to complete

the Magic Circle or destroy it.

Would you hand it over to me?

I choose to destroy this...

Please...

Let me have the symbol.

This could be

pretty dangerous

so please step back...

I'm sorry.

But I have to do this

to summon Dark Lord.

It was never the witch

that wanted Dark Lord summoned,

but me. I've always wanted to return to my human form. I'm sick and tired of being bound here in Niflheim!

Unfortunately, the symbol

which Lady Hell gave you is

limited to a one time use. Its

power wasn't enough to bring me

back, so summoning Dark Lord is

my last chance.

Oh, I'm pretty sure of

what will happen if Dark Lord

enters the realm of the living. He'll destroy Midgard and bring death to thousands and thousands of people.

So if I came back to life

and everyone else were dead,

However, by summoning Dark Lord,

you might be thinking it'd be pretty pointless for me to come back. But you know what? I don't care.

The living don't appreciate

what they have, so they ought

to be punished. They can all go to Niflheim while I enjoy the warmth of the sun and the fresh outside air.

Maybe you might not

pity my situation since you've

never been bound to Niflheim,

but I'm begging you. Don't get

in my way.

Are you really willing

to throw so much away for

my sake? You do understand

that you'll be failing the ordeals set before you by the gods...

...

I really don't want to fight you,

but I've come too far to give up now. If you insist on interfering, then you leave me no choice...

[Dark Lord]

Insolent mortal!

Do you really think

you have a chance of

stopping me? Hmpf.

Every fool must learn.

Prepare to die!

The least I can

do is send you back

to Midgard and

ask the Dark Lord to spare

you. Thank you so much...

I see now.

Soon, I'll lose my memories

and remain dead in Niflheim.

Just like all the others. Still,

may I ask you one question?

With that symbol, you

could order the dead to do

whatever you want. Why didn't

you use it to command me to quit?

......

..........

I see it now.

The kindness in your eyes

tells me everything. You wanted to give me another chance. But in the end, I managed to destroy the

chance you had given me.

Even though I'm nothing but

a spirit now, it was an honor

for me to meet somebody like you. Although I'll lose my memories, I'll try not to forget you.

My memories of your

courage and kindness

are more precious to

me than life itself.

Farewell, now.

And good luck on

your travels, my friend...

You helped the

unconscious Serin

and returned to Niflheim.

Even though you tried

to stop me, I still don't wish

to take your life. I understand

that you've merely trying to

protect your Midgard.

However...

I do not think you

have the courage to

overcome the ordeals

of the gods. Please don't

come here anymore...

Farewell...

Haven't you

given up yet?

Please don't

try to stop me!

Let me guide

you to where

you belong.
