As the group makes their way toward Ophion, Toji demands that Alice reveal what she knows about the Protagonist, having discerned that she knew more than she was letting on due to her nonchalance when Lucifuge and Tadatomo both saw two different people within them, a fact that Licht agrees with, stating that, as a Game Master, she should feel that any situation that puts an APP user at an unfair disadvantage should be wrong to her. With no way to back out, Alice reveals the truth about the Protagonist's memory loss: both the Protagonist and their Sacred Artifact are comprised of the souls, fragments, and memories of 24 individuals from Tokyo and the worlds connected to it, each with a variation of the Rending Rule that forms Boundless Tail's power. However, the Protagonist's mind couldn't handle the strain of having so many memories and Rule variations forced upon it, resulting in their memory loss. However, Alice doesn't know too much beyond that, as she was merely tasked with making sure no one found out too much about the Protagonist's condition, though she relents that it's okay for them to disclose this amongst the Summoners. As Toji apologizes to the Protagonist for being too hard on them given their circumstances, Licht and Melusine discuss the full scope of the Protagonist's predicament. Melusine believes that their soul fragments could easily give them sway over followers the fragments had behind them, but Licht shoots it down on the basis that, due to the fact that the soul fragments they're composed of were 'exiled' from their worlds, they're just as likely to run into the people who cast each of them out in the first place, which leads him to believe that there's no possibility for the Protagonist to win. | |||
Cut to top level. As the Protagonist's group makes their way to the top level, Ophion has worn down Hakumen's strength with the sheer number of numbers his Sacred Artifact has spawned. However, the golden dragon is concerned that Lucifuge won't reach him in time for Hakumen to deal with him. Fortunately, Lucifuge manages to show up with the others, much to Ophion's shock. Lucifuge requests that Ophion end the chaos the Tycoons have caused, stating that, although he is grateful that Ophion took his desires into consideration, he no longer feels the need to go along with them due to the Protagonist's arrival. Hakumen, confused as to what is happening, falls right into the Protagonist's arms, leading her to believe they are the one she was destined to love, leading Lucifuge to rightly calls Hakumen out for trying to court someone who is way too young and Licht to marvel at how the Protagonist's 'true charisma' quickly got Hakumen on their side. The moment is ruined, however, when Ophion bursts into an angry tirade over his carefully constructed plans falling apart at the worst possible time and blaming the Protagonist for interfering with his plans. Sensing that Ophion is slipping beyond reason, Lucifuge steps in to protect the Protagonist as Ophion creates a fresh wave of minions to attack the group. | |||
