• [Demon] You're carrying so much stuff, I'm worried you might break your shoulder. Why don't you go lighten your bag first?

• [Demon] You're still wet behind the ears. This place is too dangerous for you. Come back later, alright?

• [Demon] You came back quickly. Ah, I miss being young.

• [Demon] But look, I still have left some of the materials you brought me yesterday. I can't use all these.

• [Demon] Why don't you go home and come back next morning?

• Dialogue ends here

• [Demon] Hey, kiddo! It's very nice to see you again. The bomb I made with the materials you brought is in the aging process. Did you know wine and bombs get better the older they are?

• [Demon] Now, could you bring some more materials today? We're a long way from having all the bombs we need.

• [Demon] As usual, get ^0000cd10 Deadly Poison Powders and 1 Explosive Powder^000000, and ^0000cdhunt 15 Gasters^000000. Got it?

• [Demon] We'll be counting on you, kiddo!

• Dialogue ends here

• [Demon] Alright, this should do. You know what I need, right? Are you sure you could sneak in? Maybe I should go.

• [Midnight] I'll go while everyone's in bed.

• [Demon] But the noise could wake them up. There'll be guards, too.

• [Midnight] I'll be alright. We all look alike? They won't know I'm not one of them.

  Mister, what are you doing here?

• [Midnight] *Glance*

• [ Why are you playing with fire in the middle of nowhere? You're suspicious.

• [Midnight] ...

• [Demon] Hey, a kid is asking you a question. He looks so curious that I'm worried he might die if you don't tell him.

• [Midnight] ...

• [Demon] Little kids like him are full of curiosity. You'd better tell him before he starts crying.

• [Midnight] Yo tell him.

• [Demon] No. Why should I? He asked you. Plus, kids usually give me heartburn.

• [Demon] I had my favorite bean dish for breakfast today. I can't lose it. I want it to become part of me.

• [Midnight] Some of it has to come out of you eventually. Poor beans. They'd be angry to be eaten by jerks like you.

• [Demon] Oh, right! Why don't we ask this kid?

• [Midnight] What? But we can't trust him? We've just met him!

• [Demon] Yes, we can. People are supposed to trust each other. You didn't know that, did you? Now that he's here, he's one of us now. And I told you, everyone's born good.

• [Demon] Plus, doesn't he look like he's used to rough things? He has a runner's body and keen eyes that miss nothing. I like kids like him.

• [Demon] Hey, kiddo. How'd you like to join us in business?

• [ You look dangerous. I don't want to do anything dangerous.

  Script requirement

• [Demon] You don't? Alright, then I won't force you. Take care now. This place is dangerous. You'd better get out of here.

  Script requirement

• [Midnight] Are you sure we can let him go? He's seen us.

  Script requirement

• [Demon] Why are you so paranoid? It's okay, kiddo. Just go. But come back if you change your mind!

  Script requirement

• [ What business?

• [Demon] We've got a great plan.

• [Demon] Unless you're going to explain it yourself, just shut up and let me do it!

• [Midnight] ...

• [Demon] That's more like it. Anyway, we're going to rob the ^0000cdmine^000000.

  Rob the mine?

  • Dialogue ends here

• [Midnight] You didn't have to tell him that. You could've just asked him to get the things for us.

• [Demon] We can't make him do things for us without explanation. He has the right to know what he's getting himself into.

• [Midnight] You want to take advantage of a stranger.

• [Demon] No. I'm asking you to be in on our great plan. Anyway, you know the mine east of here? It used to belong to Gold Moon?

• [Demon] So, anyway, the Buffalo Bandits realized how lucrative the mine was and took up residence in there.

• [ I've heard that.

• [Demon] You have? From where?

• [ At the sheriff's office.

• [Demon] Hey, did you just get released? So are we! In fact, we've met there. I've met most of my best friends while we were in the system.

• [Midnight] I miss the smell of the stone floor. And the coolness.

• [Demon] I liked the food, too. I hated beans until I went to jail. All the beans I've eaten aren't half as good as those I ate in there.

• 1

  Why did you go to jail?

  Available immediately

  • Dialogue ends here

• [Demon] Oh, that.

• [Midnight] Are you going to tell him that too?

• [Demon] Why not? I loved that story. You want to hear it, don't you?

• [Demon] I'm really good with my hands, and I like fireworks. What do you think would be the best job for someone like me?

• [ Firecracker maker?

• [Demon] Close, but I make something stronger: ^0000cdbombs^000000. And mines are just about the best thing that could happen to people like me.

• [Demon] People working at the mines always need bombs. I came here, hoping I could make some money while doing what I love.

• [Midnight] But it didn't work out.

• [Demon] And it's because of you! One night, some guys came to me and said they heard I was a bomb specialist. They demanded I donate bombs to them.

• [Demon] One look at them, and I knew they were the infamous ^0000cdBuffalo Bandits^000000. It was obvious why they wanted my bombs.

• [Midnight] And you still gave them to them.

• [Demon] What else could I do? A bunch of scary-looking buffaloes who were at least a head taller than me, mind you? Demanded I give them my bombs.

• [Midnight] You could've stood?

• [Demon] No, I couldn't have stood my ground. You weren't there. Anyway, those buffaloes used my bombs to blow up the ore train and take over the mine. Guess what happened to me afterward.

• [Demon] The sheriff traced the bombs back to me and dragged me with him.

• [Midnight] And you got thrown in jail.

• [Demon] And guess who I met there: this guy. He was caught in the explosion that blew up the train, and those heartless buffaloes left him to die.

• [Demon] And the sheriffs were no better than them. They just left him bleeding all over the cell. What could I do? I couldn't let anyone die if I could help it, so I treated him.

• [Demon] He's been following me around since then.

• [Midnight] Who? Me?

• [Demon] Yes. Or why did you save me when I came to the mine to get even with the buffaloes? They kicked you out because of me.

• [ Did you get your revenge after you were released?

• [Demon] I don't want to talk about it. I made so many stupid mistakes, which wasn't like me at all. That's why we were hiding out in this dark, dank place.

• 1

  So, what can I do to help?

  Available immediately

  • Dialogue ends here

• [Demon] Are you sure you want to help? Because I don't like forcing people, or sending them in harm's way. If you really want to help, then you can get some bomb materials for me.

• [ Why, so you could rob the mine?

• [Demon] No. Technically speaking, we'd ^0000cdreclaim the mine^000000. Have you seen what's going in the village? Since those buffaloes took over the mine, most of the people lost their jobs.

• [Demon] Without a job, they can't make money, and without money, they can't feed themselves. This is terrible.

• [Demon] I want to throw a ^0000cdfirework party inside the mine^000000 and ^0000cdscare away the bandits^000000.

• [ But, Mr. Midnight, they used to be your...

• [Demon] Don't worry about him. He cut ties with them a long time ago. He has no love for those buffaloes who abandoned him. Am I right?

• [Midnight] ...

• [Demon] Well, I'll be dipped in buttermilk.

• [Midnight] No, I'm not worried about them, but I am worried about us. If this goes wrong?

• [Demon] The sheriffs will throw us in jail if the bandits don't kill us. But it's okay. I like the beans there.

• [Demon] If this goes well, we can get out of this cesspit and I can work at the mine again. So can you.

• [Demon] Anyway, kiddo, are you sure you can help us? There are monsters inside the mine that looks like cotton balls. Hunt them, and they'll leave behind deadly poisonous powder and explosive powder.

• [Demon] I need 10 Deadly Poison Powders and.. let me see.. 1 Explosive Powder.

• [ Deadly poisonous powder? Are you going to kill them? You said you just want to scare them away.

• [Demon] It's deadly only to humans and Dorams. To those Tauruses, it only causes allergic reactions, like itching and sneezing.

• [Midnight] I can go.

• [Demon] No. You're going to get caught and ruin our plan before it even begins.

• [Demon] Ah kiddo, speaking of which, could you cull some Gasters? That'll help us set up bombs later.

• [Demon] The buffaloes would get out of the mine when the fireworks starts, but those clumps of gas could trigger chain reaction and blow up the entire mine. Hunt 15 of them for now. Can you do it?

• [ Sure.

• [Demon] I asked yes or no. Oh well, I'll take that as a yes.

• [Demon] Now, here's the lowdown: get ^0000cd10 Deadly Poison Powders and 1 Explosive Powder^000000, and ^0000cdhunt 15 Gasters^000000. Got it?

• [Demon] We'll be counting on you, kiddo! I'll repay you generously when you come back. I was able to nab a few things while in jail at the sheriff's office. Now, off you go!

• Dialogue ends here

• [Demon] Let's see... Mm, kiddo, you forgot to hunt all the Gasters. We can't have Gasters around while we work.

• [Demon] Hunt just 15 Gasters. There's no rush. You can take your time. Just come back before the end of the day today. I want to see you again.

• Dialogue ends here

• [Demon] Let's see... Mm, you didn't bring 10 Deadly Poison Powders. That's the least amount I need to make a bomb.

• [Demon] This is enough to keep me awake all night.

• [Demon] Hey kiddo, do you mind helping me again tomorrow? I need more than one bomb to throw a firework party.

• [Demon] Go rest today and come back tomorrow in the morning. See ya!
