| |
| {{SL|You|Is it that important? The mountains on Nosta aren't that tall. Falling wouldn't be that bad, would it?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|It's not a matter of whether we'll be using it right now.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Climbing rope is essential to climbers. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's their lifeline.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|The rope records everything about a climb: the number of falls, whether someone stepped on—}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Is it to record the climbing process?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|More than that. It's also for a more accurate understanding of the climbing rope's condition.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Marius, are you into mountaineering? How do you know this?}}

| |
| After a short walk in the forest, you run into Bryce, who is looking at a paper map.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Marius|Uncle Bryce, I didn't expect to catch up with you so soon.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Marius, what are you doing here? And this is...?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|She's my friend. She's a lawyer from Themis.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|I see. Your father thought that you'd give him a foreign daughter-in-law. Looks like he's wrong.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Mr. Thatcher, you misunderstand. Marius and I are just regular friends and colleagues.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Really? I'm sorry for misunderstanding.}}
| |
| Bryce apologizes to you, then turns around and shoots Marius a disdainful glance.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Marius, tsk. Up your game.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|I...}}
| |
| You rarely see Marius so speechless, so you can't help but laugh.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|You|(Marius, you deserve it.)}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Uncle Bryce, stop making fun of me. I specifically came looking for you.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Specifically? Did something happen?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Did you not receive a notification from your terminal?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|A lot of the terminals malfunctioned. Is yours broken as well?}}
| |
| Bryce raises his wrist and looks at his terminal.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|I muted mine. No wonder I didn't see the notification.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|I remember you saying that these terminals were Pax's latest. How could so many of them malfunction so suddenly?}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Someone snuck into the equipment warehouse early this morning and damaged them.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|We also found that the warehouse's surveillance was tampered with.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Mr. Thatcher, check and see if you still have the keys to the warehouse and surveillance room.}}
| |
| Aside from the relevant staff, Marius and Bryce both have keys to the important areas of the cruise ship.
| |
| | |
| Excluding staff, Bryce is the only other person who can access those areas without leaving a trace.
| |
| | |
| On your way over, you and Marius planned a test for Bryce.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Marius|When we see Uncle Bryce, there's no harm in sussing out whether he was the person who broke the terminals.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Besides that, our most important objective is to join him and find out what his real goal is.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|In other words, to find out exactly what Luke isn't at liberty to say.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|If we directly ask to join Bryce, he'll most likely reject us.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|Once that happens, he'll be on alert. It'd be harder for us to follow him, even secretly.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Don't worry, I'll make him agree. Playing games of negotiation with middle-aged men is what I do every day.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|But this time, I need your cooperation.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Did you say it happened this morning?}}
| |
| Bryce looks as though he knows nothing about it. He immediately takes off his backpack to look for the keys.
| |
| | |
| Before long, you confirm that Bryce still has his keys.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Marius|Strange. Who else on the ship could do this without leaving a trace?}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Maybe some treasure hunter colluded with the staff.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Sigh, money makes the world go 'round. I heard that some treasure hunters will do anything for treasure.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|I didn't think something like this would happen right after we began.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Uncle Bryce, how about we call off the event for now?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|We can first screen everyone on Nosta to make sure no one has anything dangerous, and then we can resume.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|That's unnecessary.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|It'd be hard to gather so many people all of a sudden. Calling off the event now might also affect Pax's reputation.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|You're still green. You need to be more level-headed.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Reception would know if anything happened to the terminals. We just need to get staff to change out faulty terminals.}}
| |
| As he talks, Bryce looks at the terminal's announcement again.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|You already sent out an announcement, so why do you want to suddenly stop the event?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|I sent it out to reassure the participants, but I want to be careful so something doesn't happen.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|But you're right. I was being hasty.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|But Uncle Bryce, you just recovered and now there're suspicious people on the island. I'm worried about you being alone.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|How about I send you back to the ship for some rest?}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Look at yourself, being rash again.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|I planned this event for the sake of my dream. You know full well that my health isn't great. I don't know if I'll have another chance.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|No, I don't agree.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Uncle Bryce, stop worrying me. I promise I'll send you back to the island after all the terminals are checked.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|But what if someone finds the treasure and the event ends before you finish checking all the terminals?}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Let's be reasonable. You made up all the puzzles, and it's not like you came here to hunt for the treasure in the first place.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|If you want to explore ruins, why do you have to do it now?}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Can't I explore the island together with other treasure hunters?}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|I don't have much time left. You won't let me fulfill my one wish?}}
| |
| Bryce is like an old stubborn child, deaf to anything that Marius says.
| |
| | |
| Seeing that Marius and Bryce have come to a deadlock, you join in as planned.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|You|Mr. Thatcher, Marius is just worried about you. How about this...}}
| |
| {{SL|You|We're also interested in Nosta's mysterious culture. Can we adventure together with you?}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|That... You two youngsters would be bored to death traveling with an old fart like me.}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Uncle Bryce, stop making things so difficult. Else I'll play dirty tricks on you.}}
| |
| Bryce looks at you and Marius for a time, then finally sighs in exasperation.
| |
| | |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Fine, fine, come if you want.}}
| |
| {{SL|You|(Mission accomplished! Everything went according to Marius' plan!)}}
| |
| {{SL|Marius|Great. Uncle Bryce, we'll definitely take good care of you.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Stop patronizing me. Who's going to take care of who now? Don't underestimate me, kiddo.}}
| |
| {{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Let's go. There's a camp in the forest that was left behind by archaeologists. Let's go and check it out.}}}}

| |summary=[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]] and the [[Main Character|main character]] encounter [[Bryce Thatcher]] in the forest and ask him whether his terminal is malfunctioning. The pair attempt to test Bryce by giving false information about when the sabotage occurred and suggest putting a temporary hold on the event, which Bryce disagrees with. Marius and the MC then manipulate Bryce into agreeing to let them travel together. | |
