GankoomonBored! I'm sooo bored!

PlayerYou look really bored.

PlayerWhy are you so bored?

PlayerWanna hear a funny joke?

GankoomonThat's right. I'm bored. I came here to get rid of that boredom by fighting, but no luck.

GankoomonBecause nothing is going my way. I wish at least my own apprentice would do as I say.

GankoomonA joke? ...Nah, forget it. I've never heard a "funny joke" that was actually funny.

GankoomonI'm a member of the Royal Knights, a strong and proud knight.

GankoomonI'm tempted to throw a fit about that apprentice of mine but I was told to refrain.

GankoomonSo here I am, quietly waiting for my apprentice, but he still hasn't shown up.

PlayerI met King Drasil, by the way.

PlayerApprentice?

PlayerMaybe he ran away.

GankoomonOh, you met King Drasil? I hope they're doing well.

GankoomonYeah, Jesmon, an apprentice I raised up with great care.

GankoomonImpossible! Jesmon may be late a lot, but he's competitive and hates to lose, so no.

GankoomonIf ya find Jesmon, could ya let him know that I'm waiting?

GankoomonHe went out to try the ramen of this world and never came back. I'm counting on ya!

JesmonI am sorry to keep you waiting, Master! This world's Yaro-kei ramen was truly amazing!

GankoomonIt's about time! ...So, ya found Jesmon for me, did ya?

GankoomonAnd, thanks to you, we now know where to meet the others. I should thank ya in some way.

PlayerYes, please.

PlayerWhat are you giving me?

PlayerAre you giving me candy?

GankoomonHm. I'll give ya the best thing I have to offer. This old man's iron fist!

GankoomonThis old man's iron fist, of course!

GankoomonSorry. I don't have that kind of stuff. But I'll give ya this old man's iron fist!

JesmonThat is a great idea! It is an honor to be able to train with my master, you know.

GankoomonSeems ya weren't expecting this. How about if ya beat me, I'll give ya something else?

GankoomonI'll be waiting at the arena. ...Jesmon! You fight alongside, too. Let's see if ya got rusty.

JesmonI have been looking forward to training with my master again! Good luck to both of us!

GankoomonLet's do this!

JesmonIt is almost time!

GankoomonYou were amazing! As promised, here's yer reward. It's yers to keep.

GankoomonIt was actually pretty fun. Fighting with humans isn't half bad.

JesmonMaster, I think we had better head for the rendezvous point now.

GankoomonCalm down, now. Truth is... I could've gone there any time if I wanted...

GankoomonBut someone told me to refrain from acting as a Royal Knight and to keep quiet. Guess who?

PlayerI have no idea.

PlayerKing Drasil?

PlayerOmnimon?

GankoomonHaha. I bet ya don't. It was Alphamon.

GankoomonNow, why would King Drasil tell me to refrain from acting as a Royal Knight?

GankoomonIt's Alphamon who told me to keep quiet.

GankoomonNo way! Why would I obey Omnimon's orders?!

GankoomonIt's Alphamon who told me to keep quiet.

JesmonI thought Alphamon was a vacant member of the Royal Knights. Why would it say such a thing?

GankoomonI'm sure there's a reason. I dunno what, but something may have happened in this world.

GankoomonIt was blathering on, asking what the point of the foolish human race surviving was...

PlayerI'm sure there's a point.

PlayerWe're not in a position to decide.

PlayerMaybe there is no point.

GankoomonAs somebody from the human side, of course you would say that.

GankoomonThat's right. It's not up to you or me to decide. But that goes for Alphamon, too.

GankoomonHaha. Another human I know well said the same thing.

GankoomonWe tend to be dualistic, just wanting to distinguish between zero and one.

GankoomonWith that in mind, I was pondering whether I should listen to Alphamon or King Drasil.

GankoomonI want you and Jesmon to accompany me while I make my final decision.

PlayerSure.

PlayerWhat do you plan on doing?

PlayerThat's a lot of pressure.

GankoomonAlright, you'll be a witness to my final decision. I'll send ya the coordinates later.

GankoomonIt'd take too long to explain. The quickest way is to just let ya see in person.

GankoomonYa sure don't look like you're under pressure. Humans are interesting things.

GankoomonI'm going ahead, then. Check that Digiline thing for the location. See ya.

JesmonThis is becoming a big deal. The very survival of the human race is at stake.

JesmonI am sorry, but could you stay with us a bit longer? I shall go when I am ready, too.

GankoomonWhere did Jesmon go? I'm counting on ya!
