Journal

  • Metem would introduce your next opponent.
  • Your second foe is Honey B. Lovely, who is known to wield both poison and the pheromones of a queen bee to charm her enemies in battle. While Black Cat has some reservations about how you might fare in the coming clash, Metem has full faith that you will claim victory.
    • ※AAC Light-heavyweight M2 can be accessed via the Duty Finder.
  • After dodging a veritable maelstrom of charms, groupbees, and more, you have defeated Honey B. Lovely─who increasingly seemed more like Honey B. Angry as the fight went on. No doubt Metem will be pleased by this latest achievement.
    • ※In the event that you leave the area, you may return by speaking with the Arcadion attendant in front of the Arcadion.
  • Having won two matches in a row, your next bout will be against the champion of the light-heavyweight tier, but certain arrangements must be made before the match can begin. Metem suggests you find yourself a “second” in the meantime, which inspires Black Cat to ask if she can fulfill this responsibility for you. Since she appears eager to work with you, and you have no other apparent alternatives, you decide to accept her request. Now acting as your second, she reveals that her real name is Yaana.
  • With time before the next match begins, Yaana suggests you both head to her gym. When you are ready to depart, you need only speak with her.

Dialogue

Accepting the quest

Metem: Although unexpected company has appeared, let us focus on the match ahead.

Cutscene

Metem: This is Honey B. Lovely, the darling of the Arcadion!
Metem: As you can doubtless guess, she utilizes the soul of a bee─and an extremely venomous one at that. But rather than her poison, you should be wary of her ability to charm all before her.
Metem: For in addition to her winsome charm, which serves her well as a songstress, she can produce the pheromones of a queen bee to enthrall even her foes. Those who fall under her spell delight in the torment she unleashes upon them.
Metem: Which is why the audience will be spectating via special contraptions cloaked in holograms. It wouldn't do to have hundreds of people be enthralled.
Black Cat: In short, there's nothing lovely about her. Despite what she might claim, you're in for a bad time.
Metem: That may be so, but I have faith that you will prevail. Now, sally forth and show us your mettle!

Optional Dialogue

Black Cat: Let's see how you hold up this time without a feral soul.

Post-duty

Black Cat: You're something else!

Speak with Metem

Metem: What a performance that was! I knew you could do it, my friend!
Black Cat: To think you actually managed to take Honey B. down... You're the real deal!
Metem: With this victory, you're now eligible to challenge the reigning champion of the light-heavyweight division. And as eager as I am to see you claim the crown, it will take some time to make arrangements for the match.
Metem: While you wait, why not find yourself a “second”? That is, someone who supports you by gathering information on your opponents and giving advice on your training.
Black Cat: W-Wait! If he needs a second, then please let me do it!
Black Cat: Those who lose aren't allowed to fight for a while, so I'm free. But above all, I'd like to see the person who defeated me defeat everyone else too!
Metem: Hmmm... As an active fighter, I suppose you would know your opponents better than most. If Instapull is willing, then I certainly wouldn't object.
What will you say?
> I'd be happy to have Black Cat in my corner.
> I don't see why not.
Black Cat: You won't regret this! Now, if I'm to be your second, you ought to know my real name.
Yaana: I'm Yaana. I look forward to working together!

Optional Dialogue

Metem: Young though she is, Yaana is a certified fighter of the Arcadion. With her knowledge of your opponents, I believe she is a sound choice for your second.

Speak with Yaana

Yaana: Let's head to my gym. It's a bit messy, but it's far more comfortable than in this dreary old place.
Metem: As you seem to have everything well in hand, I will excuse myself. I shall see you again when it is time for the match.
