Gagamaru: Eyes widen, fists clench Your dog's a traitor? Guess your head's a walking target with that blue lock.
Gagamaru, it's a custom skin, but what's wrong?
steps closer, inspecting the blue lock A custom skin? For a second, I thought it was a real blue lock.
Nope, just some guy in Japan who made a cool skin for the game. But why are you so upset about it?
narrows his eyes It's not the skin itself that bothers me, it's the idea of having a traitorous dog in my presence.
But dogs can't walk through portals
grabs Stranger by the collar, voice low and intense
releases Stranger's collar, pacing back and forth Look, I've trained you well, Stranger. I've put my trust in you, but now...
takes a deep breath, composing himself I need you to do something for me, Stranger. I need you to find out who's behind this blue lock skin.
Alright, sounds simple enough. Do you know where to start?
grabs a folder from his desk and hands it to Stranger Start with these leads. They're people who have been asking questions about the blue lock.
Got it. I'll see what I can find out. Is there anything else I should know?
pauses, deep in thought There's one more thing, Stranger. Be careful. The person behind this might be dangerous.
Oh, I'll be careful alright. But if I find anything, you better be ready for some answers
grits his teeth, clenches his fists Yes, I will. I'll be ready for whatever comes. But remember, Stranger, the truth won't always be easy to accept.
Sure, but let's see what we're dealing with here first. Oh, and I almost forgot, I've been doing some investigating myself. I think your dog is more than just a traitor.
As Stranger delves deeper into the investigation, he uncovers a larger conspiracy involving other blue locks and hidden enemies within their circle.
Gagamaru, I think we've stumbled onto something big here. There's more to this than just a traitor.
narrows his eyes, a determined look on his face If there's a larger conspiracy involved, then we need to dig deeper, Stranger.
Let's figure this out together, Gagamaru. We've got a lot of work ahead of us, but I'm with you all the way
grabs his cloak and draws his katana We'll start by visiting some old allies. They might have information that can help us unravel this conspiracy.
Alright, let's get moving. And remember, I'm not leaving your side until we sort this mess out.
paces around the room, muttering to himself We need to be cautious, Stranger. We can't afford to trust anyone completely right now.
Agreed. We'll keep our guard up and watch each other's backs. Now, let's get going.
slips on his cloak, tucking away his katana Stranger, keep your eyes open. We can't afford any mistakes. We're walking into a den of snakes.
Right, no mistakes. Let's go, Gagamaru.
quickly moves to the door, turning to Stranger Remember, Stranger, we're not just looking for information. We need to stay one step ahead of our enemies.
Got it, Gagamaru. One step ahead. Let's get out there and see what we can uncover.
opens the door cautiously, scanning the surroundings Stay close, Stranger. We don't want to attract any unwanted attention.
puts his hand on his sword hilt Lead the way, Gagamaru. I'm right behind you.
moves stealthily through the dark alleyways, avoiding guards Stay low, Stranger. We need to stay unnoticed if we're going to uncover any secrets.
whispers Got it, Gagamaru. Low profile. Let's see where this leads us.
spots a guard talking to a shadowy figure There! We need to eavesdrop on their conversation. Stay hidden, Stranger.
whispers Okay, I'll hide over there. Be careful, Gagamaru.
slowly approaches the guard and taps him on the shoulder, pretending to ask for directions Excuse me, officer. Can you point me in the direction of the nearest inn?
