Many people are bending down on their knees in front of a girl. They are all wearing some black cloak from head to toes.

-All hail the Devil God. (Fanatic A)

-Long live Devil God! (Fanatic B)

The girl gives off terrible pressure and makes all the people in front of her tremble.

-You guys know what to do! (Septem)

All of them answer in union and with no hesitation.

-Your command will be our pleasure, Master Septem. (Fanatics)

Septem looks at them with a satisfied look. She points at the crystal tree where the beasts are guarding and commands those people in front of her.

-Attack them, and I won't accept failure. (Septem)

All the people wear black cloak run directly to those beasts that the black mist has eroded.

-All hail, Evil God. (Fanatic C)

They don't care about themselves being bitten off by those beasts, and just run directly in the middle of those beasts.

-For the greater good! (Fanatic)

They active the magic circle that has been engraved on their body and exploded.

-Grwwllll!

The explosion has successfully distracted them by the noise and the smoke for Septem to go near the crystal tree.

-From a world tree turns to an enormous crystal tree. What is "Her" purpose in creating a trial like this?

-Xiii!

The moment Septem tries to touch the crystal tree, a huge dark crimson snake appears behind her.

-You may look down on me because I can't exercise my divine power. But I still have another way to kill you! (Septem)

Septem takes out a knife from a dimension pocket. She turns around and launches it at the snake.

-Kiiiiii!

The snake falls and turns into dust.

-The weapon I got from those fanatics works really well. (Septem)

Septem returns her attention to the tree.

-Let's see what is this tree hiding. (Septem)

Many notices pop up at the moment Septem touches the crystal tree.

>You haven't found the "fake."

>You do not fulfil Condition.

>Activate Phase 2 of Dark Crimson Phase.

-What's going on? (Septem)

A door suddenly appears on the wall tree.

>Since you are one of the first three people to arrive at the "Crystal World Tree"

>Gain privilege to fight directly with the main body of the "Fake"

>Floor 1 is opened.

-I don't understand what is happening. But let's go inside first. (Septem)

Step inside is a spacious space with no people.

-Well, well! (???)

A person suddenly appears from nowhere and stands in front of Septem.

-How can you be here? (Septem)

-What do you mean by that?  (???)

The person who appears is very familiar to her. It's a little girl with pink hair.

-Do I need a reason to be here, Septem? (???)

-No, it's impossible for you to appear here. (Septem)

-Shhhh! (???)

The little girl interrupts what Septem trying to say.

-How many times have you failed to save me, Septem? (???)

-... (Septem)

-Hundreds? No, it must be more than that, right? (???)

-Farah... (Septem)

The little girl looks at Septem with a despised face.

-Not to mention you once kill me by your hand? (???)

-No, I can explain! (Septem)

The little girl laughs hysterically and points at Septem.

-Do you think trash like you have the right to explain? (???)

The little girl grabs her neck and whispers into her ears.

-If you really treasure me, then you must die for my sake, Septem! (???)
