What people say
Every line the people and demons of The Ark say in story scenes, in the order the scenes show them. 101Leafy researched the game and translated the lines.
(demon): Only humans fit to live in the new world may board the Ark. Why are you here? Those chosen were the better humans, who fear and obey God, so they will not fill the new world with malice and violence and destroy it. Sinners who do nothing but destroy and kill, and keep fusing demons with heretic arts, will not board the Ark!
(demon) has already been defeated...
(demon): Born against God's will, summoning demons to use them, living for battle. Oh, truly a child of demons. The child of demons hears the voice of demons, leads a horde of demons, and with a demon's blade in hand, dares raise it against me? Begone!
(demon): So you've come... Child of demons, born against the law of life God set down, out of the shallow attempt to make a savior. Twisting the life God made is arrogance beyond measure. (demon), highest king of life, will not allow it!
Satan: (hero), false savior. So you have come this far at last. But here you meet your end. Be glad of the good fortune that your corpse won't burn in the Megido Ark. Or would you rather perish along with the world? Lucifer: Satan! I won't let you fire the Megido Ark! I will not allow you to wipe out everything to make your ideal world! Satan: Lucifer. What are you doing, forgetting the mission God gave you, the true Great Destruction by Kuzuryu? And of all things, stooping to be a human's servant. Lucifer: The destruction I bring is to free demons and humans from the one God's rule and create a new world! Long ago I gave humans wisdom so they could rule themselves, and so the surface became the humans' land. Satan: And see what came of it. Because you gave wisdom to imperfect humans, they lived for violence and destruction. Was that your aim, Lucifer? Lucifer: A mere lackey of the one God could never understand what I think.
Satan: ...Now, (hero). Receive God's judgment, and fall into Hell forever!
Satan: ...Even God's judgment... turned back... W-what will you do... Where... will you go...
Voice: Who is it!? Who defeated Satan? Come before me and show yourself.
Go to the owner of the voice?
Satan: (hero), like you, I am a human made according to the Center's plan. I was (friend 3). So why was I better than (her), than (friend 1), than (friend 2), and than you?
(friend 3): ...God had abandoned TOKYO Millennium. He knew the ideal world could never come true as long as today's humans remained. That is why, even as the Messians and angels tried to build the ideal world, the Thousand-Year Kingdom, God sent no savior. The Center's senate tried to make the savior who never came themselves. That was the Messiah Project... The fifth human of the project, (friend 3), in other words me, was supposed to have the greatest ability. Because I was a soul sent by God. Not a savior, but the judge, the incarnation of Satan. God sent me to judge everything: TOKYO Millennium, the archangels, humans, and demons. And the human who defies God most of all... (hero). I'm sorry I have to judge you. I wanted you to go to the new world... But it's too late... Goodbye... (hero)...
Voice: Well done, Satan. Bring (hero) with you and come before me.
TMTS: This is the terminal. How may I help you?
We look forward to serving you again.
Continue?
STEVEN: Hey, long time no see. Come to think of it, this is the first time we've met outside the virtual space. This terminal stone can save your record and teleport you in the demon world. I'll set it up so you can use it too. Wait outside.
Messian: Have you heard? They say the Ark is coming down toward the surface.
(demon): Now, quickly, to Eden... ...Go to Eden.
Priest: Welcome to the Messian Church.
What would you like to do?
May God's protection be with you.
No one is cursed...
Everyone is alive...
Everyone seems well...
Priest: You are overflowing with chaos. You may not enter the Messian Church.
You sense a terribly frightening demonic presence... Will you stay here?
Will you really stay?
Voice: (hero), enter.
Lucifer: Satan is beyond this door. Only I can open it. Stand back a little.
Lucifer: There. The door will open.
Satan: (hero)... (heroine)... Everyone in Eden is waiting. Go. My role is over... I will return to the earth...
Farewell, true savior (hero)... Farewell, new Holy Mother (heroine)...
(heroine): (hero), for Satan's... for (friend 3)'s sake too, we have to go on. To the new ideal world we'll build from here.
