Liberate the Golden Stool

  • Well, well. If it isn't my brother from before.
  • What a coincidence, meeting here.
  • Well, as usual, father and son are feuding. However, this time it's a little different.
  • After all, I have stolen the treasure of the Ashanti: the Golden Stool!
  • This artifact connects the souls of the Ashanti people to their gods. With it, my success is all but assured...
  • If you would listen, I'd like to talk of my true goal...
  • I'm not simply aiming to join Bethel. I intend to create my own branch: Bethel Africa!
  • Age after age, African lands have been subject to invasion, exploitation, crises of faith.
  • I have a duty to connect the African people and their faith to the future!
  • For that reason, the African gods must establish parity and friendship with other branches under a strong leader.
  • If I can't obtain my father's approval for that, then I'd have to wait until I surpass him...
  • But by taking the souls that reside in the Golden Stool, I have finally reached those heights!
  • I can't afford to risk my father reclaiming this artifact, you understand.
  • ...However, it'll be some time before I can use the power of this stool's spirits.
  • Until I join Bethel, I must preserve the power of the stool...
  • But just as the story was about to turn dull, you've made a surprise cameo!
  • You are without a doubt the trickster who shall defeat Onyankopon!
  • You consider Tokyo your birthplace, correct?
  • Then you must understand. You now know the humiliation of seeing your birthplace trampled...
  • More than anything, I loathe the fools who drag their feet when they could drive change and do good!
  • How about it? You and I would make a duo to be reckoned with!
  • Is that so...? What a disappointment.
  • I didn't realize you were quite so boring.
  • Ah, I knew you were a kindred spirit after all!
  • Now then! Would you please defeat Onyankopon in my place?
  • Oh, what a stroke of luck! To help the weak and crush the strong— yes, I expected no less of you!
  • My father... Onyankopon should be around Yotsuya.
  • My father... Onyankopon should be around Awajicho.
  • Please, hurry over and see to it.
  • Onyankopon should be around Yotsuya.
  • Onyankopon should be around Awajicho.
  • I'm sure he must be hopping mad by now. He'd be liable to lose his hair over it... if he had any! Kahaha!
  • Keh heh heh... I can just imagine the panic on my father's face...
  • What's this?
  • I see. So, father is still using you?
  • You really do have a passion for meddling in private affairs.
  • But this time, I'll hold nothing back.
  • You would never be able to compete with the power of all the souls in the stool!
  • However! That would accordingly make this an incredibly boring, unfulfilling story!
  • Therefore! Allow me, the King of All Stories, to rewrite the plot!
  • Now then, will you listen to my story?
  • Very good. Then let us speak plain. My true goal is...
  • I'm not simply aiming to join Bethel. I intend to create my own branch: Bethel Africa!
  • Age after age, African lands have been subject to invasion, exploitation, crises of faith.
  • I have a duty to connect the African people and their faith to the future!
  • That is why Africa requires the backing of Bethel!
  • If I can't obtain my father's approval for that, then I'd have to wait until I surpass him...
  • But by taking the souls that reside in the Golden Stool, I have finally reached those heights!
  • Now, I seek to weave a new story: a tale of African solidarity!
  • Surely you sympathize with my ideals? Please, join forces with me!
  • If you defeat Onyankopon, I will gladly overlook this. I ask not only for me... No, for the sake of Africa's future.
  • Keh heh heh... Of course.
  • I knew you'd be a crowdpleaser the moment I laid eyes upon you.
  • Now, let's hurry up and beat some sense into that stubborn old man.
  • Hmph... How boring. Very well.
  • If I defeat you here, this will make for a charming anecdote once I join Bethel.
  • Now, the King of All Stories will be your opponent!
  • Father is around Yotsuya. Now then, prove your faith through your actions!
  • Father is around Awajicho. Now then, prove your faith through your actions!
  • I hear the Japanese branch also advocates rule by the myriad gods.
  • In that, we are comrades in a sense, are we not?
  • Well, well... aren't you a clever one.
  • I share with you that I am going to betray my father, and you end up betraying me!
  • Kahahahahaha! What a twist! Yes, this makes a fine story indeed!
  • But I wonder: is it a comedy or a tragedy? I'm afraid it's the latter... and it ends with your death!
  • D-D... D... D...
  • DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT!
  • Why!? This Golden Stool bears all the power of the Ashanti souls! Is this really all they amount to...?
  • Old man...
  • Wha... But my... story...
  • Africa's... dream...
