﻿\setgamedatatitle("Lusario  \nThe First City, Farta")

\text
In the throne room, the top brass of the Demon Lord's army
have gathered.
\endtext

\text
From here, we will invade Lusario, who has declared war on
us.
\endtext

\text
This is the strategy meeting for that.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
As I mentioned before, Lusario is a country that's hard to
invade because of the Arda Great Forest.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
On top of that, the royal capital, Luct=Lusario, is
protected by a great barrier, making invasion nearly
impossible.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
That great barrier is supported by four surrounding cities.

\endtext

\text("Risbell")
First, we'll systematically take control of those cities to
weaken the barrier.
\endtext

\text("Agri")
Can't we go from underground?
\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
Nope. Can't get in from above or below.
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Hmm... So foreplay really is important. If you don't get it
wet enough, you can't break through. Quite different from
Risbell.
\endtext

\text("Noro")
...?
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Please make sure all invasions and retreats are done
underground. They have the advantage in the forest. Let the
monsters know as well.
\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
Got it.
\endtext

\text("Caym")
I was completely ignored.
\endtext

\text("Agri")
Means she's grown up. In body and mind.

\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
Congrats to her.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
...You three over there, be quiet. And how did you even find
out!?
\endtext

\text("Margaretta")
Noro saw you coming out of Caym's room the morning after the
feast.
\endtext

\text("Noro")
............
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Wha...!?
\endtext

\text("Margaretta")
By the way, what about the elves? They're not people of
Hados, are they?
\endtext

\text("Caym")
We'll bring them over to our side. No need to kill them
needlessly. I don't like that sort of thing.

\endtext

\text("Margaretta")
Risbell?
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Ah... yes, you're right. We do need to strengthen our
forces... ugh.
\endtext

\text("Agri")
It's already out, so what's there to be embarrassed about?

\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Of course I'm embarrassed!
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Still, looks like you're ready to fight too.

\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Of course. If I'm going to fight, I'll win. ...Because I
have to protect you, Caym-sama.
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Oh? That's adorable of you to say.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Ugh... That's not what I meant...
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Heh. Well, now that we've settled on a plan, let's get
going.
\endtext

\text("Margaretta")
Hmm. Then Agri and I will take the lead. We need to take out
those troublesome archers.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
There should be a watchtower, so please prioritize that.

\endtext

\text("Agri")
Yeah, leave it to me. Once we take that out, they won't be
able to use it for a while.

\endtext

\text("Caym")
This is where it really begins. Queen of the Elves... I'll
make you mine, no matter what. All troops, advance!

\endtext

\text
…………………
\endtext

\text

\endtext

\text
……
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
Damn it... What kind of war is this? That bastard Rudol...!

\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 2")
Yeah, seriously. There's no way Lady Tiela would want
something like this.

\endtext

\text
Atop a watchtower overlooking all of Farta.
\endtext

\text
The two archers, cursing the man who is effectively the top
of Lusario, fire their arrows.
\endtext

\text
Sharpening their senses, they focus on their target.
\endtext

\text
From beneath the city center, the Demon Lord's army and
Farta's vanguard burst forth as if welling up from
underground, clashing fiercely.
\endtext

\text
They fire arrows to support their allies.
\endtext

\text
Sniping from afar was definitely slowing the Demon Lord's
army's advance.
\endtext

\text
With this, we can do it... That thought gave them
confidence.
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 2")
According to Captain El, Rudol riled up the council members.

\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
And the captain went off to investigate Rudol...!

\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
What's wrong?
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 2")
No, it's just, over there―
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
What is it?
\endtext

\text
Suddenly, their vision sways violently.
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 2")
An earthquake...? No, did the support pillar shake?
\endtext

\text
Annoyed, he leans out to look down―and in that instant...

\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
Wha―
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 2")
Uwaaaaaaah!?
\endtext

\text
With a loud crash, the watchtower collapses.
\endtext

\text
It happens so suddenly, they can't even regain their
balance.
\endtext

\text
Just like that, the soldiers are swallowed up by the
collapse and fall.
\endtext

\text
The only thing that saved them was being on top of the
watchtower.
\endtext

\text
And that it collapsed from the bottom up.

\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
Ugh... damn it...! Why all of a sudden...?

\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
!?
\endtext

\text("Agri")
If you don't want to die, don't move.
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier 1")
The Demon Lord's army...!?
\endtext

\text("Margaretta")
You'd be better off surrendering.
\endtext

\text
――The cover fire from arrows stops.
\endtext

\text
As if waiting for that moment, the Demon Lord's army
launches their assault.
\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
Now! Go!
\endtext

\text("Monsters")
GROOOOAAARRR!!
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier")
Hii...!? Uwaaaaaaah!!
\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
Well, I guess that's what happens when you've been holed up
for hundreds of years. No resistance at all.
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Yes. But they're just the advance party. We'll be facing the
main force soon.
\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
What about Margaretta and the others?
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Now that the watchtower's destroyed, they should be able to
regroup right away. No need to worry.
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Heh... hehehehe...!
\endtext

\text("Spacchio")
...What's up, Demon Lord?
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
...He's probably fantasizing about the elf women again.

\endtext

\text("Caym")
Exactly. Those elves are all top-tier. My imagination's
running wild. At this rate, I'm about to burst. Not saying
what, though...!
\endtext

\text
Caym shoots a heated gaze at the female elf soldiers, a
sadistic grin on his face.
\endtext

\text
Now that the pretense of restoring Hados is gone, the only
thing driving him is his own pure, unfiltered desire.

\endtext

\text("Lusario Female Soldier")
Tch... If it comes to this, I'll just have to buy time until
the main force arrives...!
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Oh? So you're saying you'll keep me company, then.

\endtext

\text("Lusario Female Soldier")
Ah...!? Let go of me!
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Heh... For a Demon Lord, taking a woman in the middle of
battle is nothing...!
\endtext

\text("Lusario Female Soldier")
Eek...!
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Caym-sama!!
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Hm...!
\endtext

\text("Lusario Female Soldier")
Tch...!
\endtext

\text
Caym narrowly dodged the arrow, which was fired to slow him
down.
\endtext

\text
He'd almost lost his life, but with a fierce, delighted
grin, he turned his gaze toward the direction the arrow had
come from.
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier")
Demon Lord, prepare yourself!
\endtext

\text("Caym")
Heh... So the main force has finally arrived. But we've got
our full lineup too.
\endtext

\text("Agri")
Boss! I smashed up all the watchtowers!
\endtext

\text("Margaretta")
Hmm, looks like their main force is finally making an
appearance here too.
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldier")
So they've got more allies...! Use the buildings as cover!
Take them down before they get close! Show them the pride of
Lusario!
\endtext

\text("Lusario Soldiers")
Ooooooooh!!
\endtext

\text("Risbell")
Don't be afraid―move forward! If we get close, the advantage
is ours! Commence the attack!
\endtext
