Milka! Awaken Alice!!

We'll transform Alice into her Weapon Form and blow this guy away!
We can't!

If you fire that beam of light in a place like this...
You'll cave in the walls and ceiling and bury us alive!!

Then...
Then what do we do!?
We're lost in a maze! No one's coming to save us!!

Alice!

Kishyaaaa!

What are you doing!?
You just said we can't use the Changeling!

We can't use the Weapon Form, but the Battle Form should be all right!
Now give her orders, Coco!

Can this little guy...
Really beat that monster...?

Well...!

Alice! Attack it!!

Kishaaaaaa!!!

The string is cut here.
Aye... It looks like it was an accident.

Captain! Don't run off so recklessly!

What is it, Nose?

...Sand.

It's okay. I'm sorry. Things got really scary.
But... We had no other choice...
Yeah... It's all right.

No reason to cry, right...?

But Captain. How did you know which way they went?

"First wake the Watchman"...

Right here, Pete.
Pour Pour

There's a small bag on Coco's sandal that's leaking sand.

C-Captain...!

We woke the watchman...
...And found our next clue.

Dinner's ready, everyone!

...
Pete, what the hell is this?

The watchman of the labyrinth!
...Are you serious?

Hey, Dead...

Teach me how to use a sword!

Learn from the Captain.
He only knows how to dual wield!

Then learn from Pete. He has the most proper technique.
Please, Dead!!

Any closer and you're dead.

...I...
I want you to be my teacher.
The swordsman who rivals even the Captain.

My name is Coco Felkena, 8 years old. ...The way I am now, I... I can't protect my the ones I love. The ones I miraculously met.
