"The Guard of Midtown" is a Challenge Quest in Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse.

Overview

The quest is available after Shesha evolves into the Cosmic Egg and Nanashi is level 76. When Nanashi gets to Midtown, Hagen tells Nanashi to leave, but if Nanashi refuses, Hagen is fought.

Stage	Quest Description
Request	Ever since the Ashura-kai pulled out, Midtown has been a good place to make Macca gathering relics, but recently a demon called Hagen has settled down there and now i's really dangerous to gather relics. I don't have any money, but I can give you something amazing I picked up, so can you take him out?
Thanks	He gave his life protecting that treasure!? That's crazy... As someone who has to scramble together whatever coins she can, I can't even imagine that. Anyway, now I can safely collect relics. Thanks. The card I gave you is for a members-only shop in Ginza. They've got some amazing stuff there, so I hope you get some use out of it! Not that I have a chance of ever being able to afford any of it, but...
