Alchemist Astray - Chapter 1: The Path to Truth - Episode 3

Arriving at the location, the crew finds nothing but an empty building. Upon searching the grounds, however, a mysterious white form appears and attacks them without warning.

---

Vyrn: So this is the place the villagers were talking about.

Lyria: There doesn't seem to be anyone around though.

Having heard of its location from the villager, (Captain) and company arrive at the research facility.

What stands before them, however, seems to be nothing but an empty shell of a building.

Cagliostro: Not a trace of research material in sight...

Cagliostro: Tsk. Seems we're too late.

1. Let's see what we can find.
2. I have a bad feeling about this.

Choose: Let's see what we can find.

Cagliostro: Agreed. From the looks of this, there's little doubt they might have left something behind.

Cagliostro: Don't leave a single rock unturned.

Go to "Continue 1"

Choose: I have a bad feeling about this.

Lyria: Me too. Something about this place is giving me goose bumps.

Cagliostro: You're not the only one... But we're already here—let's not go back empty-handed.

Cagliostro: We'll give this place a quick look-over.

Cagliostro: But keep your guard up.

Lyria: A-all right.

Vyrn: Roger that!

Cagliostro: Hm? Did you hear that?

Cagliostro: Whoa! (Captain)! Behind you!

(Captain) turns around to find a white, humanoid form primed for attack.

Lyria: Nooo!

Cagliostro: Tsk!

Cagliostro intercepts the beam with a barrier just in time to protect (Captain).

The beam's heat, however, proves too strong as the barrier starts to crack and falter.

Cagliostro: ...!

The barrier finally gives way, its explosive force knocking Cagliostro and (Captain) to the ground.

Lyria: Cagliostro! (Captain)! Are you all right?

Cagliostro: ...

Lyria: Cagliostro!

Cagliostro: Hm? Ah. I'm fine. And you, (Captain)?

1. I'm fine too. Thanks to you.
2. Be careful. Don't push yourself too hard.

Choose: I'm fine too. Thanks to you.

Cagliostro: Good. As long as you're not hurt.

Cagliostro: But stay sharp. I don't think that thing wants to cuddle with—

Go to "Continue 2"

Choose: Be careful. Don't push yourself too hard.

Cagliostro: Aww! Thanks a bunch for thinking about me, (Captain)!

Cagliostro: I could say the same to you though.

Cagliostro: You're the one who always goes overboard.

Vyrn: Yeah. Can't count how many tiny heart attacks I've gotten watching your heroics.

(Captain) lets out a wry smile.

Cagliostro: But stay sharp. I don't think that thing wants to cuddle with—

Cagliostro: ...!

Cagliostro staggers and seems on the verge of collapsing.

Vyrn: Y-you sure you're okay? You look like you can barely stand.

Cagliostro: I'm fine. Besides, we've got bigger worries right now. Let's take that thing down!
