After returning to the Center, however, Aleph finds out that demons have invaded the area, and according to the [[Center Bishop]], a false Messiah is running about disparaging Aleph's name, claiming that Aleph himself is the false Messiah. This false Messiah turns out to be Daleth, who publically challenges Aleph to a fight to the death at the Colosseum to prove who the real Messiah is. During the fight, Daleth momentarily gains the upper hand and is about to strike a fatal blow on Aleph, but Beth intervenes and jumps in the way, taking the blow for him. Aleph proceeds to win the fight, and can try to either spare or kill Daleth, but if he tries to do the latter, Beth will plead for him not to, allowing Daleth to escape with his life. After the Bishop comes forward to announce that Aleph is the Messiah to the crowd, Aleph is approached by a child who gives him a letter from [[Mekata]] asking for him to go to the Slum. There, Mekata vaguely hints that he knows the truth behind Aleph's past. Still, before he is willing to elaborate on it, he requests that Aleph rescue Hiroko, who was imprisoned at the [[Internment Camp]] after she was separated from Aleph. To get there, Aleph goes through the elevator in the [[Valhalla-Center Passage|Center Passage]], where he once again encounters Daleth, who he defeats and watches as he escapes again.

To get there, Aleph goes through the elevator in the [[Valhalla-Center Passage|Center Passage]], where he once again encounters Daleth, who he defeats and watches as he escapes again. As he heads to the [[old aqueduct|Old Suidobashi]] connecting to the Factory, he can find a shrine housing [[Kotoshironushi]], who has been turned to stone, and if Aleph has a dis-stone or a demon with [[Petradi]] with him, he can restore the deity to normal. Continuing through the old aquaduct, Aleph can optionally encounter a [[Nadja]] who, thinking he is cute, joins his party and teleports them to a locked door that allows them quick passage to the Internment Camp. If he doesn't recruit the Nadja, Aleph must fight the [[Janus|demon]] guarding the elevator leading to the camp. | ||
When Aleph arrives at the Interment Camp, he is stopped by Zayin, who | When Aleph arrives at the Interment Camp, he is stopped by Zayin, who, while understanding Hiroko's reasons for breaking the law, maintains that it is absolute, and fights Aleph to prevent him from freeing her. Through the fight, however, Zayin changes his mind about the law and allows Aleph to go through to Hiroko's cell, though when he tries to free Hiroko, she is uncooperative and wishes to stay in her cell. If Aleph recruited Nadja in the old aqueduct, she will fuse with Hiroko so that she can be part of the one he cares for, which increases Hiroko's stats permanently and restores her mental state, allowing her to leave with Aleph. If Aleph never recruited Nadja however, he must force Hiroko to go with him, with her returning to her right state of mind once they leave the Factory's vicinity. | ||
