ACKS_LEADER AKIRA ANDY APOCALYPSE BILLY BOH FUKO JUIZ MICO MOVE MUI NICO RIP SHEN TATIANA TOP AKIRA The Roundtable members hold their own even against Victor, the most powerful man. However, their victory is prevented by his regeneration and combat skills which surpass that of Andy's. AKIRA In order to bring Andy back, Fuko returns with the card in hand, getting close to Victor to change the tide. AKIRA Fuko makes physical contact with Victor to create a stroke of unluck and Juiz comes up with a plan. AKIRA Fuko's affinity for Andy is high, so if they can bring his consciousness back, a giant stroke of unluck can be instantly affixed to Victor. AKIRA For her voice to reach Andy, Fuko opens a hole where the card was in Victor's forehead and begins to shout. Her desperate words miraculously awaken Andy's consciousness and a giant stroke of unluck rains down. AKIRA Fuko wakes up in a hospital room and Andy, in his usual guise, is sitting next to her. Fuko sheds tears of joy and relief, but now Apocalypse opens once again. RIP How fascinating. You really are Unseen. A self-targeting compulsory activation type. When you shut your eyes, your body and anything you recognize as your property becomes invisible along with you. RIP But here's the strange part. That's your blood coming from your stomach, isn't it? Or were you not aware? RIP I don't want you running off on me, so I cut open your stomach and put a tracker in there. If you join us, I'll deactivate my ability. But I'm afraid that if you don't, your wound won't heal until I'm dead. RIP So you see... You're mine now, Unseen. I'm not handing you over to them. JUIZ Everyone is assembled. Now, then, proceed, Apocalypse. APOCALYPSE Yes! Quest results! FUKO Hmm? FUKO Wait, is today really August 31st already? FUKO I've been asleep for that long? ANDY Yeah, I'm not surprised. A total shut-in moving like that, your body's not used to it. APOCALYPSE Those who sit at the Roundtable, hear me! I now declare the results of the six quests you were tasked to fulfill. APOCALYPSE Item one: capture of UMA Burn. Successful. Participants: Juiz, Tatiana, Billy, Isshin, Phil, Top. TOP Hmm. APOCALYPSE Reward: the addition of an 11th seat. APOCALYPSE One more Negator may now be added to the Roundtable. APOCALYPSE Item two: capture of the UMA Eat. Successful. Participants: Juiz, Tatiana, Billy, Phil, Top. APOCALYPSE Reward: the location of Negator Unburn. APOCALYPSE For the next seven days I will reveal their exact location. Unburn is currently here at the marked coordinates. They won't detect that they've been tracked. You may catch them if you need them. But, well, I wouldn't expect you to since you already captured Burn. APOCALYPSE Item three: neutralization of UMA Language. Successful. Participant: Nico Vorgeil. Reward: the unification of all the world's languages. APOCALYPSE Altering the memories and cultures of all non-Negators. All languages have now been unified to English. SHEN Mui, dear, are you there? MUI Hmm? MUI Oh, Master Shen, yes, sir. Is something the matter? SHEN Are you wearing your necktie now? MUI Hmm? No, sir. I'm actually in the middle of training at the moment. SHEN That's great. What perfect timing. SHEN I'm thinking I'd like some of your dim sum today. How 'bout it? MUI Um, what did you say? Repeat that, please? A little bit slower this time? SHEN No, that's all I needed. Sorry. Catch you later! MUI Uh, yes. Roger, I understand. SHEN Hmm. Confirmed unification of languages. APOCALYPSE Item four: capture of UMA Past. Successful. Participants: Juiz, Nico, Phil. Reward: Artifact Rebellion can be found at this location. APOCALYPSE Item five: capture of UMA Spoil. Successful. APOCALYPSE Participants: Andy, Fuko... FUKO Uh, present! APOCALYPSE Shen. Reward: location of Negator Unrepair. They're right here. FUKO We did it! There's Unrepair! Andy! They might just be able to provide you an actual death! FUKO Huh? APOCALYPSE Item six: capture of Negator Unseen. Failed. APOCALYPSE How very unfortunate. FUKO Huh? ANDY Yeah, we had an inkling. The guys that went to investigate Unseen all died. Their bound bodies ended up in a deserted area, and all of 'em bled to death. ANDY My guess is Unseen got taken by Unrepair. APOCALYPSE All quests have not been cleared. Therefore, you shall receive a penalty. Now adding UMA Galaxy! FUKO Huh? TOP It's ginormous! TATIANA What is this thing? FUKO So this thing-- ANDY Is our penalty, huh? FUKO Huh? It went towards the ceiling. ANDY Is it surface-bound? JUIZ Come, Move. MOVE You call for me? SHEN Hey, Move. Thanks again for the other day. FUKO Ah, that's the thing that brought us here, isn't it? JUIZ Move, transport us to the surface. MOVE Fine. MOVE Hmm? FUKO Huh? FUKO No! APOCALYPSE Galaxy has been added. A new rule that the world will believe has always existed. APOCALYPSE I wonder. Will you be able to overcome this penalty, Negators? FUKO Andy, where are we? ANDY Australia, I figure. FUKO Oh, I've seen that before! It's supposed to be the biggest rock in the world, right? MOVE Juiz, I've done my part in transporting you all here. Now I expect to be treated to quite the show. JUIZ Yes, I understand, Move. You'll have a front row seat to my justice. FUKO Hey. ANDY Hmm? FUKO I thought that this would be, I dunno, a lot scarier or something. This isn't so bad. JUIZ You're wrong. We're dealing with an UMA added by Apocalypse. They possess rules that can lead humanity to ruin. And this one is no exception. JUIZ The alteration, it's starting. ANDY Huh? FUKO Huh? TOP Hey, what is that? It's amazing! Whoa, look at it! JUIZ Nico, I want confirmation on this. NICO I'm already on it. NICO Dimwits, it's me! A brand new rule was just patched in! What may be basic common knowledge to all of you, it isn't to us Negators. So give me your knowledge, now! MICO Right, roger that, Dr. Nico. MICO We're the superior ones whenever a new rule is added. Huh, Daddy? BOH Don't say that. Or you'll get killed. NICO Now I see. NICO This Galaxy is a cluster of celestial bodies like Earth. NICO Basically, this penalty spawned a slew of these Earth-like bodies all at once, which birthed myths and a naming system called days of the week based on the celestial bodies and introduced the concept of extraterrestrial life-forms called aliens. NICO Right at this very moment, those aliens have begun invading our planet. TOP Awesome, that's so cool! BILLY What's that? FUKO What are those things? Are they flying ships? ANDY They enemies? NICO Yep. These aliens were born moments ago by the alteration into a world that's always had a galaxy. So naturally they believe this is how it's always been. NICO Born on a planet with several hundred million years of history, they've been training themselves for decades to become soldiers and were given spaceships so they could invade other planets. NICO With their own planet on a path to ruin, they're looking for a new place to call home. I'd wager that's the backstory these guys got. ACKS LEADER We are known as Acks. We've traveled far to your planet to take it as our own. This shall be our new home world. NICO What'd I tell you? ANDY You don't say? One hell of a penalty, all right. ANDY Huh. ACKS LEADER Who is the representative for this planet? JUIZ I am the one. ACKS LEADER Hmm. Ah, if you offer no resistance to our invasion, then we plan on using your life forms as our labor force. Your people all seem to possess moderate intelligence. ACKS LEADER If you resist, you'll be deemed a hindrance and thus eliminated. Make your choice. JUIZ I shall choose neither. Withdraw your ships. ACKS LEADER Hmm. ACKS LEADER We've done our research on this planet. Your civilization is shamefully undeveloped. You've yet to make an advancement into space due to your species' lack of cooperativeness. You cannot possibly win by force. This is genocide. ACKS LEADER In order for my family, friends, and people to live on this planet, all of you must die. JUIZ Is that your vision of justice? ACKS LEADER Yes, it is. A vision infallible to any form of reasoning otherwise. JUIZ I see. ACKS LEADER Hmm? JUIZ Well, then, in that case... I'm going to have to negate that justice. ACKS LEADER What did you just say? BILLY Whoa! What the-- TOP So cool! This is seriously awesome! ACKS LEADER No! What have you done to us? JUIZ Andy, Fuko, observe closely. This is a penalty. FUKO Huh? JUIZ My ability managed to avoid the situation this time. But depending on who's involved, this could have been game over. JUIZ Galaxy marks the 99th penalty that's been added. We cannot afford another one, no matter what. ANDY Why's that? JUIZ We found a stone tablet while uncovering Apocalypse, and on that tablet was 101 slots. Each time we receive a penalty, one slot gets filled. JUIZ There's only one left until it reaches 100. And beyond that lies the final penalty. Ragnar k. JUIZ I assume it's a word that denotes the end. In order to protect this planet, we must prevent that at all costs. That is why we will stand up to any quest, no matter what it may be. JUIZ That said... The quests-- Apocalypse won't open unless the Roundtable's fully occupied. FUKO Oh, right! Since there's a new spot now... JUIZ Yes, we obtained an 11th seat as a reward for the Burn quest. Unless we can fill that seat, in three months, we will receive yet another penalty for being unable to take up any new quests. JUIZ In other words, our highest priority right now is securing an 11th member. FUKO So that means this time... ANDY We'll be doing the hunting. ACKS LEADER You-- All of you-- Just who are... JUIZ You're still here, huh? You didn't kill yourself despite my power. Your vision was tall talk after all. JUIZ Hear this and relay it throughout space. JUIZ Keep your hands off planet Earth. AKIRA On September 1st, 2020, humanity made first contact with extraterrestrial life. However, it would be the first and last time as all contact would cease thereafter. JUIZ This time around, our reward is the whereabouts of Unburn and Unrepair. APOCALYPSE Reward: the location of Negator Unburn. APOCALYPSE Location of Negator Unrepair. They're right here. JUIZ Now, we want-- ANDY Let me guess. Unrepair? ANDY I'll take care of it. If their ability's true to their name, just a single attack may prove to be fatal. JUIZ Very well, then. I'll assign backup for insurance. Take Tatiana along with you. She'll be of use. TATIANA Wait, uh, me? JUIZ And Fuko. You go as well. ANDY Roger that. Since you helped me, it's time to return the favor!
