Episode 3-4: Plan How To Move Forward

Main Street
Crowley Crowley	The Halloween party originally planned for tomorrow, October 31st… …may have to be cancelled.
WHAAAAAAAT?!
Grim Grim	B-B-B-But why?! The party's the part I've been looking forward to most! Why's it gotta be cancelled?!
Vargas Vargas	We have taken various measures to aim to try and handle this all amicably. But if even that does not get through to them, then…
Crewel Crewel	Say the troublemakers don't damage the statues next time, but hurt one of you here instead. Then what would you do?
Sam Sam	A fancy party is practically bait for Magicam Monsters.
Trein Trein	Unfortunately, for your safety as well… …it is simply unthinkable to approve of a party being carried out amidst all this chaos. As the adults here, we must take the actions that protect you children, even if those actions make us hated.
Kalim Kalim	Professor… Sam…
Crowley Crowley	Precisely. Thankfully, we are all Mages. We can fix the statues of the Great Seven easily. However, should anyone be injured, we would have no choice but to contact the police. If that were to happen… Oh, I don't even want to think about it! Ahem! Anyway, we must avoid any more trouble.
Vil Vil	All the professors give such a dependable aura, and yet something about the headmaster always feels a little off…
Jade Jade	Perhaps he has some secret that he'd rather the police didn't discover?
Deuce Deuce	B-But we've put so much effort into preparing for this week.
Epel Epel	And everyone was really looking forward to the Halloween Party!
Jack Jack	Won't this disappoint everyone who comes to the Sage's Island every year especially for the party?
Grim Grim	Right?! I don't want to miss out on such yummy-sounding food!
Crewel Crewel	I understand how you feel, but…
Sam Sam	What're you gonna do, Headmaster?
Crowley Crowley	…How about we have a discussion amongst us adults, hm? This is a very difficult problem. We should plan how to move forward from here with the students' safety in mind first.
Choice 1: If the problem is resolved, can the party go ahead?		Choice 2: If safety returns to the school, can the party go ahead?
Crowley Crowley	Hm? Well, yes, of course.
Trein Trein	Headmaster, let's hurry to the staff room. We have to gather the other staff, as well.
Crowley Crowley	Yes, yes, I'm coming!
step step step
Grim Grim	And they're off… So what're we supposed to do now? At this rate, the party's gonna be a goner!
Azul Azul	chuckle You're a rather crafty one yourself, Yuu.
Grim Grim	Huh? Wait, what did they say?
Jade Jade	Did you not hear what the headmaster said? Should the problem be resolved and the school becomes safe once more, the party can go ahead as scheduled. Now, call your mind back to what Cater has said. The cause of all this trouble is not Magicam or the ghosts.
Cater Cater	Yup! The source of all this…
Cater & Vil Cater & Vil	…is the Magicam Monsters!
Jade Jade	Indeed. So naturally, all that is left for us to do is to chase out every last one of them. The completion of such a task will return peace to the school, meaning the party could continue.
Sebek Sebek	Hah. Then it's simple. Let's close off the school right this moment! Chase out everyone who came from outside!
Leona Leona	You Briar Valley lot are some real shut-ins, aren't you? Is it cause the king's such an introvert?
Sebek Sebek	What did you say?!
Lilia Lilia	Sebek, my dear… Think about what you just said. Is it so strange that Leona was taken aback by your words? The guests of honor during Halloween Week are the guests. We are simply the hosts of the party. If we have no guests, then what point is there in the party?
Deuce Deuce	I wouldn't feel right chasing out the guests who are following the rules, honestly.
Epel Epel	But how are we supposed to tell the difference between the regular visitors and the Magicam Monsters? You can't really tell them apart through appearance alone. Doesn't that mean we can't chase out just them?
Vil Vil	Magicam Monsters are essentially those that refuse to listen to what we're saying. Which means telling them apart will be simple. Everyone should make their own warning signs.
Deuce Deuce	Warning signs?
