It's me, Lucy
REPLYHi, Lucy~
Phaethon, I have something to talk to you
What's up at this hour?
Yeah, I wanna talk to you about something
I'll wait for you at the hut behind the gas station
On yeah, come alone and don't let anyone else find out!
Meet with Lucy in secret[]
- (Talk to (Belle/WiseBelle/Wise) again, optional)
- (SiblingSibling): Hm? Lucy's looking for you? (WiseWise /

Double Agent[]
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
Double AgentVideo Summary: Friends you can't trust are more terrifying than enemies.
Story Description: Lucy deduced that the two incidents You faced were likely orchestrated by Lucius from the Overlord Faction. The more concerning issue, however, is that there may be a mole in Blazewood leaking info. She needs my help.
- Lucy: Proxy, sorry to call you here so late.
- Lucy: I'll cut to the chase. I have an extra commission for you, and I need you to keep it secret.
Can you explain more?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Can you explain more?
- Why keep it from the others?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Why keep it from the others?Why keep it from the others? /

- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Why keep it from the others?Why keep it from the others? /
- Lucy: We're in a crucial stage of our preparation for the race and I don't want this throwing anyone off their game.
- Lucy: You must have noticed. Lately, every time we go into the Hollows we're met with one obstacle after another. It's clear someone has it out for us.
- Lucy: I did a background check on Bellum and Pulchra. There's no public info linking them to any biker gang, but I bet they've got something to do with The Vanquishers.
- I feel the same.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): I feel the same. After all, the Tour de Inferno is a duel between your factions.
- No other gangs are suspects?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): You don't suspect any of the other biker gangs?
- Lucy: The Tour de Inferno is a head-to-head duel between us and The Vanquishers. Since one team will end up with the next Overlord, it's best not to cause trouble right now.
- Lucy: Also, knowing Lucius, there's no way he's not involved! But we don't have solid proof, so we can't do anything about it.
- Lucy: Proxy, I expected some tricks from our rivals, but something's off — their intel is always right on the money!
- Lucy: If they didn't know about our plans ahead of time, how could they keep getting the jump on us? Someone in town must be feeding intel to The Vanquishers.
- Do you have any suspects?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Do you have any suspects in mind?
- Lucy: Not yet. Blazewood mostly backs us to win, so I need to investigate.
- Need my help?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Do you need me to help out?
- Lucy: Not for now. I need to narrow down the suspects first.
- Lucy: I'll look into it. I might need your help further down the line though.
- Don't worry, Phaethon will take the commission.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Don't worry, Phaethon will take the commission.
- Got it, ready any time!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Got it. (Just say the word and we'll be there.Just say the word and we'll be there. /
Just say the word!Just say the word!)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Got it. (Just say the word and we'll be there.Just say the word and we'll be there. /
- Lucy: Thanks. Oh, and just a reminder — Don't tell the others. Especially Burnice and Caesar!
- Lucy: Burnice can't keep a secret, and as for Caesar... Well, never mind.
- You're such a worrywart.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (You sure are worried about thisYou sure are worried about this /
You sure are worriedYou sure are worried), Lucy. - Lucy: What can I do? Everyone else is so naturally optimistic around here!
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (You sure are worried about thisYou sure are worried about this /
- You care a lot about Caesar, don't you?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): You really care about Caesar, (don't you?don't you? /
huh?huh?) - Lucy: N—No way!
- Lucy: Hmph, I have intel Caesar doesn't know, which means I have the upper hand. That's all.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): You really care about Caesar, (don't you?don't you? /
- Lucy: Anyway, I'll contact you once I get a breakthrough. Wait for my word. Bye.
About Lucius... What!? That accident does seem suspicious. Was it an attack aimed at us? It's okay. A Proxy's life is never short of risks.Tell Belle/Wise what has happened[]
- (SiblingSibling): You're back, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle). What did Lucy say? - (Tell (BelleBelle /
WiseWise) what happened...) - (SiblingSibling): I see... Lucy's got valid concerns. Compared to relatively known enemies, it's threats from nearby that're more concerning.
- (SiblingSibling): Lucy's investigation might take a while, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle). Since we're free for now, let's kick back and do our own things. - Yup, sounds good.
- Let's hope we can get this dealt with quick...
- (SiblingSibling): It's getting late, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle). Time to go to bed.
Go inside the residence and take a rest[]
- (Interact with Room Door)
- Would you like to relax now?
- : Let's take a break now!
- : Wait a moment...
- You enter the room and lay down on a bed that is not the most comfortable but smells fresh and clean. With Lucy's news on your mind and the exhaustion from the Hollow, you drift off to sleep.
- ...
- The night passes before you realize it, and a new day dawns in the Outer Ring.
Talk to Belle/Wise[]
- (SiblingSibling): (There you are, Wise. What's up?There you are, Wise. What's up? /
Oh, hey Belle. You need anything?Oh, hey Belle. You need anything?) - : (Talk about Lucy's request.)

REPLYLucy, it's me. About before...
Hey, Proxy, your timing couldn't be better. I was just about message you
Are you there, Lucy?
I'm here. You want to ask about before? I was just about to contact you
I've got some clues
REPLYHow's it looking?
We have a suspect, but it's kind of tricky
Did you find out who the snitch was?
Pretty much. But it's kinda tricky and better if we talk in person
Meet me where we met up last time
REPLYI'm on my way.
Got it! Be right there!
Okay, I'll be waiting.
Meet up with Lucy[]
The Worst Objective[]
The following is recorded in the Video Archive
The Worst ObjectiveVideo Summary: Friends you can't trust are more terrifying than enemies.
Story Description: According to Piper and Lucy's findings, Mayor Kasa's recent behavior has been suspicious, suggesting she could be the informant. To consider Caesar's feelings, you decided to keep this investigation from her and secretly track Kasa's movements.
- Piper: Oh, Proxy, it's you. Are you looking for Lucy?
- Nah, just wandering around.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (No, just taking a stroll around the area. You go ahead.No, just taking a stroll around the area. You go ahead. /
Oh no, just taking a stroll. You go ahead.Oh no, just taking a stroll. You go ahead.)
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (No, just taking a stroll around the area. You go ahead.No, just taking a stroll around the area. You go ahead. /
- Yes, I wanted to go over Tour de Inferno details.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Yes, I wanted to go over the details of the Tour de Inferno with Lucy.
- Piper: Ah, Proxy, you really know how to keep your mouth shut. That's good to know.
- Lucy: I've said it before, if you can't keep a secret and are slow to react, you're not cut out to be a Proxy.
- Was that a test just now?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Was that just a... competency test? Looks like I passed, huh?Was that just a... competency test? Looks like I passed, huh? /
Was that all... a test of my competency? So I passed then?Was that all... a test of my competency? So I passed then?) - Piper: Yep, you're the real deal, Proxy. Definitely someone the Sons of Calydon should work with long-term.
- Lucy: Don't let Piper's usual careless facade fool you, she's actually pretty cautious.
- Piper: Ah, sorry about that. Just Lil ol' unreliable me... Anyway, let's get to the real issue, the informant problem.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Was that just a... competency test? Looks like I passed, huh?Was that just a... competency test? Looks like I passed, huh? /
- Piper, were you testing me?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Piper, were you testing me just now?
- Piper: Sorry, sorry, but what comes next is crucial and it's messier than we thought...
- Lucy: Proxy, the suspicious individual was discovered by Piper. She'll fill you in on the details.
- Piper: Here's the deal, ever since we've set up camp here, I've noticed something odd.
- Piper: Every time Blazewood ships out their handicrafts, Kasa always leaves town for two or three hours at night, carrying Hollow gear with her.
- Piper: Since Lucy told me there might be a mole, one night I pretended I couldn't sleep and talked to Kasa when she was about to leave.
- Piper: She said she was out for a stroll because she also couldn't sleep, and then she just went back inside as if everything was normal.
- Piper: But an hour later, she snuck out of Blazewood again.
- That's really suspicious.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Her behavior does seem quite bizarre.
- Kasa could very well be the informant.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Looks like Kasa could very well be the informant.
- Lucy: Ugh, this is terrible news!
- Lucy: Kasa's relationship with the Sons of Calydon goes back longer than I've been around. We set up camp here because of that trust.
- Lucy: And to Caesar, Kasa has always been like a big sister, someone she can rely on. If she really has backstabbed us...
- Caesar's going to be crushed.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Caesar's going to be torn up about it...
- The bond between Blazewood and Sons of Calydon...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): The longstanding bond between Blazewood and the Sons of Calydon would be ruined...
- Lucy: So we have to investigate this discretely. If we're right about this, we need to solve it without Caesar knowing.
- Piper: This is a tough situation. Like speeding downhill heading for a turn, but you're [sic] brakes are out.
- Piper: But dwelling on the worst-case scenario won't help. We have to roll with the punches... 'Cause that's how the Sons of Calydon do.
- Lucy: Piper's right, once a wild boar charges, there's no backing down.
- Lucy: Proxy, I heard there's another shipment going out in a few days. Kasa should follow her usual routine.
- Lucy: We'll follow her at night and see what she's up to.
Complete the commission via the HDD System[]
- The night of the Blazewood shipment has finally arrived...
- (SiblingSibling): Kasa has already left town, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle). Let's pack up and get moving! - (Recieve commission Betrayed or Not)
- (Talk to (Belle/WiseBelle/Wise) again, optional)
- (SiblingSibling): Kasa seems to be heading for the Hollow, (WiseWise /
BelleBelle). Link up with the HDD and tail her with Lucy.
