"The turtle's familiars that are attacking the people, the seal that was forcefully broken, and the one who kidnapped the three heroes... So, the one behind all that, was you."
???: How dare you act so smug, when you just showed up after all this time ? Or are you thinking that you've got me cornered ? You must be feeling good. You know that the turtle is still within my control, right ?
"Trust me, that's only a matter of time. I'll feel good once I shove your head so far up your ass it will sprout out of your mouth."
???: I like your spirit. Well, then, Hand it and your powers too !
Naofumi: A new type of familiars ?!
Rishia: Ah... Lord Itsuki is... !
Ost: Don't tell me... Is it stealing power from the holy weapons ?!
Rishia: What !
Naofumi: That means that... It had used the same method when the turtle regenerated ?!
???: It's amazing, isn't it ? You plebeians couldn't even think of it, right ? If you were at my level, you could even do a feat like this. Even so, for you to have cut its head off so many times... JUST BY DESTROYING A FEW TOWNS AND COUNTRIES, THE ENERGY ISN'T ACCUMULATING AS IT SHOULD HAVE !!
???: Wow. As I thought, among the four holy weapons here, the shield is the more useful. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on that power.
Naofumi: 'Four... ?'
'He doesn't know... We have at least a good trick up our sleeve here...'
Ost: Answer me ! Just who are you ! Why are you doing things like this !
???: Consider me surprised. I didn't know that the guardian beast could do something like this... That's why you could find your way here.
"What..."
???: This world, will be destroyed. If this world is to be destroyed by the wave, then you lose. I should make good use of it !
Ost: You are... The other world's vassal weapon holder !!
Raphtalia: A hero from another world ?!
"... Suddenly, our meeting with L'Arc and the others sooner makes way more sense. You guys are working together in this, aren't you ?"
L'Arc: Can you please not lump us together ?
Naofumi: What-
Therese: PYROXENE CRIMSON FIREBALL !
Ost: These flames... I can't feel any heat from them... ?
"There's only one person I know who can use this kind of magic..."
L'Arc: Did you know that there are some things that you can do, and some that you shouldn't ? Your vassal weapon is grieving, you know ?
???: What are you talking about ? You're the ones who'll destroy this world, right ?
Naofumi: L'ARC ?!!
L'Arc: Yo, sonnies. You saved us some trouble. We were having a hard time finding our way here.
Ost: Aren't you guys his comrades ?
L'Arc: Don't even joke about that. Kyo Ethnina, the book's vassal hero.
Glass: Your deeds have crossed lines that a vassal hero should never cross. Even if it's in a world we are enemies with, controlling a guardian beast is inexcusable.
L'Arc: Just how many innocent people have you killed...
Glass: That's why, according to the will of the vassal weapons, we will defeat you.
Kyo: ... The vassal weapon's will ? Are you guys being used by the weapons ? Do you have anything inside your head ? You all look stupid acting like good people.

Filo: Master !
"I see, those haven't been defeated yet..."
Kyo: Gyahaha !! You look miserable. Here, I'll return the favor,
"Naofumi... You truly are a reliable guy..."
Kyo : Hmm ? So you guys are banding together to defeat a common enemy ?!
L'Arc: Sonny !!
Naofumi: It's just for now, until we defeat him.
"Filo, imagine these familiars are Motoyasu, and beat them up accordingly."
Filo: Yes !
"It's five on one here, what chances do you think you have ?"
Kyo: I'll speak my mind here. Those weapons won't be of much use, you know ? Unless the wave occurs.
Naofumi: What does he mean ?
L'Arc: ... ...
Therese: The rules governing this world is different from ours, but it's a little special when a wave occurs, the rules coexist during that time...
L'Arc: What it means is that I can't bring out the full power that I used last time.
"So, in short... You guys are OP only when you need to kick OUR asses ?"
L'Arc: In short... Yes.
Naofumi: Hey, will you guys be alright ?
Kyo: I'm different on that matter, though. If there's not enough power, I can just forcefully pull it out. On that mater, SHALL I TAKE ALL OF YOUR ENERGY TOO ?!!
Kyo: Tch.
Naofumi: Damage proportional to defense !!
L'Arc: Even if our levels are lower, it's not like we can't do it, you know ?
"L'Arc, I have a question. How punishable are this guy's crimes ? "
L'Arc: If you're talking about how far you can take things... There's nothing that he doesn't deserve.
"Good. That means, THAT I DON'T HAVE TO HOLD BACK !!"
Kyo: THE MAGE TRYING THE CLOSE COMBAT ? HOW DULL-WITTED ARE YOU TO THINK IT'LL WORK ?!
Glass: And on that note, I'm glad we haven't shared that piece of information with you, Kyo.
L'Arc: He is no ordinary mage...
Naofumi: He is...
"THE STAFF HERO !!
Kyo: GUH... Huh... wha ?
L'Arc: Nothing happened... ?
Kyo: He... Hehe... GYAHAHAHAHAH !! SO MUCH FOR A SO-CALLED HERO !! In the end, you're nothing but another stain on my shoes ! Composition style chapter one, BIRD OF FLAME !!
...
...
...
Kyo: What... ?
"Oh, are you perhaps..
L'Arc: A... A disc ?
"It's a good thing whatever I do, you deserve it, because after all, the biggest punishment for a hero... Would be to be stripped from all of its power, don't you think ?"
"That disc is your power, your ability to use your vassal weapon. It's true that it didn't wanted to be used by you, it seriously was unbelievably easy to 'pull it out', like you said earlier."
Kyo: G- Guh... You... YOU !!!
"I'll leave the cleaning to you. It's your jurisdiction after all."
L'Arc: Sonny. I knew you were a formidable foe, but seeing how much you grew in such a short amount of time... I'm genuinely scared about the next wave, if we have to go against you... But you're right.
L'Arc: The misconduct that came from our world, WE'LL TAKE CARE OF IT !!
Ost: THE CORE !! Aim for the core !! With that, everything will end !
Naofumi: Th... This is... H- How...
Kyo: Don't act so surprised, I told you that I could squeeze out as much power as I wanted from the core. At this point, losing the ability to properly use my weapon isn't a big deal.

Kyo: Do you guys even understand what you are doing ? Trying to save the enemy's world. There is no good or bad in the way you do it !
Therese: L'Arc..
Kyo: Well then, here, the only ones able to Stand properly should be... Oh, just you ?
Ost: This power is what I specialize in.
Kyo: Yeah, I know. You're "the turtle's heart" right ? In other words, the turtle itself. I figured it out on my first glance, you're different from all other familiars. You're the only one among the familiars who I couldn't control as I wanted to.
Kyo: If you didn't have any way to notify and guide them, then they'd have been squished flat by now. To think that you had such an important part of you act autonomously outside of your body...
Ost: It is as you say. I also realized it once I came closer to my heart. My will is that of the turtle's.
Kyo: You're going to die either way so you won't need it. I'LL USE IT WITH CARE !!
"You truly are a nuisance, aren't you ? I can see now why you fled from your own world, you were just so annoying that literally no one could stand you."
Kyo: Well, then, by all means. Welcome, to MY new world. You may act all smug and cheeky now, but what will you actually do ? At this rate, I'll suck up all their energy, and they'll die. Now, the two of you, don't give me anymore trouble, while I'm still laughing. It's already checkmate.
"I don't think so."
Kyo: Another one. I forgot about her. But even if another small fry is added, it won't make a difference. dressing up as a clown...
Rishia: Are you scared ? To hole yourself up this deep and to control the turtle... And all the power you use, is what you have stolen from others... On top of that, you take hostages and target the weaknesses of others... Are you scared ? Of being weak.
Kyo: ... Huh ?
Rishia: I'm weak. That is why I understand. You're even weaker than I am.
Kyo: You're seriously annoying. Want to die right now ?
"That's it, Rishia, I knew working on your shyness would give good results."
Kyo: You... You've spoiled my mood. Just, disappear.
"But now... What kind of master, what kind of father, what kind of friend would I be, if I let the ones I cherish be killed right before my eyes ? I'd be... Well, I think I'd be you."
Kyo: YOU... VANISH !! DISAPPEAR !! OUT OF MY SIGHT !! NOOOOOOW !!!
"Too late"
"Rishia, if you may ?"
Rishia: Yes... I want to become stronger. I want something in which I excel more than anyone else. If only I had power, I though this to myself many times over. But what you do is different. It goes against the "Justice", that I believe in !!!
Kyo: ... Justice, huh. Are you stupid ?! Is that all you got ? Well ? Or are you thinking "I gave it my all, so I'm amazing" ? I'll let you know. The winner, is the one who decided what "Justice" is ! That means, I'll decide it !!
""
Kyo: W- WOOOOOOOAH !!
"I think I'm starting to get the hand of those gravity powers."
Kyo: ... A power that surpass my super gravity... That surpass the turtle itself... ?!
Rishia: We haven't lost yet... I haven't given up hope in my justice... I'll never give in to you... !!
Kyo: If only that woman wasn't there... !! That woman... THAT BITCH !!
Ost: Please, Iwatani, please lend me your power, as the Shield hero !!
Kyo: Tch, you... M- My leg ?! What's happening ?!
"I've already reversed the gravity of your leg. It's a matter of time before it starts turning inside-out."
Kyo: YOU... YOU BUNCH OF DEGENERATES MAGGOTS ! I'LL MURDER YOU ALL !!
"The last weapon you can rely on, words."
Ost: Imagine creating a higher magic with the one that is carved into you !
Naofumi: Higher magic ?!
Ost: Concentrate ! Match your senses to mine ! I, the spirit turtle, command the heavens and the Earth. Break and rewrite the laws of nature, expelling forth the impurities from within...
Naofumi: 'Wh- What is this ?! This feeling...' ... O, the power that dwells within the dragon vein, become our power along with the hero's power.
"... As the source of all power, the Staff Hero, command thee."
Kyo: No... The weapons... They entered resonance with each other... ! What is happening ?!
Naofumi/Y/n: Rewrite everything in creation once, and grant them everything. BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY WEAPONS, PUSH BACK THE ENEMY, AND BRING BACK ORDER TO THIS WORLD !! ALL LIBERATING AURA !!!
Kyo: they escaped the super gravity field ?! IMPOSSIBLE !! They shouldn't have been able to power-up that much...
Elrasla: This is Ki. I can feel Ki overflowing from within.
Glass: Amazing...
"So this is what happens... When the five holy heroes... No, the five holy weapons, are able to work together..."
Ost: EVERYONE... DESTROY THE CORE... !!
Kyo: WHY YOU BASTARDS... Don't make me repeat myself... THE TURTLE'S POWER, IT IS ALL MINE !!
Ost: No. It is also present here.
Ost: That... Is all of my power... Please, defeat me, with that Shield...
Kyo: LIKE HELL I WOULD LET YOUUUU-
"All of this, with a Shield as a weapon..."
L'Arc: What tremendous power...
Kyo: ... Damn... Damn damn damn DAMN DAMN ! YOU HAVE RUINED MY PLAN !! IT'S A PLAN THAT I CREATED, YOU KNOW ?!! JUST HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU THINK IT TOOK ME, AND IT WAS SUPPOSED TO COLLECT A VAST AMOUNT OF ENERGY...
Kyo: And that little piece is all that remains...
Ost: The core's... Energy is... !!
Kyo: WHAT FOOLS ! DID YOU THINK I'D LET IT RETURN TO YOUR WORLD ?! I'VE ALREADY PREPARED FOR EVERYTHING, YOU IDIOTS !! And you... YOU !! JUST KNOW, THAT I'll KILL YOU LAST ! SO YOU CAN DROWN IN THE DESPAIR OF HAVING EVERYONE YOU CARE ABOUT TORN AWAY BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES !!
L'Arc; Not good ! WAIT YOU- !!
Kyo: I'LL MURDER YOU ALL !! LATER FOR SURE !!!
L'Arc: KYO !! Therese !!
Therese: there's no mistaking it. He went back. To our world... !!
Naofumi: You let him get away ?!
L'Arc: ... As if I'd let him. And so that's it, sonnies. I'll leave the rest to you.
"Do you mean..."
L'Arc: We caused you a lot of trouble... Sorry about that. THIS FAVOR, WE'LL SURELY...
Naofumi: WAIT !! You think I'd let you-
Naofumi: Wh- What is this ?
