[k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 0] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Maxwell Ah yes, those are the children who came here from nearby villages. The machine draws on their magical energy in order to operate. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk D] [charaFace D 2] [charaFadein D 0.1 1] @Chief Retainer Mash Huh!? Why would you do that? I thought the point of your Noble Phantasm was to generate limitless magical energy!? [k] [charaFadeout D 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 5] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Maxwell Unfortunately, my perpetual motion machine turned out to be a fraud. [k] @Maxwell My Noble Phantasm can't operate solely on its own. It requires a bit of pure magical energy to get it moving.

[k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 4] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Maxwell That's right. Children are an excellent source of pure magical energy, after all. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk E] [charaFace E 5] [charaFadein E 0.1 1] @Mori Nagayoshi Damn, this Noble Phantasm's even worse than I thought. [k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 5] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Maxwell Indeed. Frankly, as I am a mere imagined demon who wishes to create a true perpetual motion machine, this thing is an abomination to me too.

So that's why you chose to betray me and have them try to destroy you. [k] ?1:It's the high priest! ?2:Let these kids go right now! ?! @High Priest of Makuzu Oh, don't worry. Maxwell's Demon only needs a small amount of pure magical energy to operate. [k] @High Priest of Makuzu All we have to do is change out the children inside a few times a month, and everyone else can enjoy the benefits of Lord Makuzu. A pauper's price for a king's bounty.

[k] [charaFadeout E 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk J] [charaFace J 0] [charaFadein J 0.1 1] @High Priest of Makuzu Hmph, this is exactly why I detest trying to reason with stubborn fools like you. Why can't you understand? [k] @High Priest of Makuzu It is a simple calculus, really. We offer a tiny sacrifice, and in exchange, the masses can enjoy peace and happiness. What more could a unified nation desire?

At this rate, you're going to need far more children than you're using now. [k] [charaFadeout F 0.1] [charaFadeout G 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk H] [charaFace H 5] [charaFadein H 0.1 1] @Maxwell Exactly. By continuously generating magical energy on an impossible scale... [k] @Maxwell ...you're causing Maxwell's Demon to accumulate fatal errors, a buildup of material debt. [k] @Maxwell At some point, this small-scale simulation alone won't be enough to cover for it. [k] @Maxwell That's why you're planning to use this Singularity as a toehold to begin eroding the real world as well. [k] [charaFadeout H 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk J] [charaFace J 0] [charaFadein J 0.1 1] @High Priest of Makuzu It doesn't matter if this world is real or not. All that matters is that I now control limitless magical energy. [k] @High Priest of Makuzu If anything, it would be wrong of me not to use it to bring about paradise on earth and free all living things of their suffering. [k] @High Priest of Makuzu Yes, that's right. I'm going to need even more magical energy if I'm to save more lives. The only way to save the living creatures of this world is to take matters into my own hands. [k] @High Priest of Makuzu So I must generate even greater amounts of magical energy to save as many creatures as I can, even if I must sacrifice this world to do so. [k] [charaFace J 1] @High Priest of Makuzu This limitless power will let me save even more living creatures! [k] ?1:You're off your rocker... ?2:The ends don't justify the means! ?! [bgmStop BGM_EVENT_71 1.5] [charaFace J 0] @High Priest of Makuzu All right, enough talk. It's time to break through this world's shell and use my power to bring about true paradise!
