After reaching Silvalant, head to the docks and travel to the Deserted Island. Your party will open the portal to the Demon World.
Upon reaching this new dimension, head up for a short scene. The dialogue will be a bit different if you have Ashlay in your party since he personally knew the Crimson Shield. You’ll enter a battle against Del Argosy shortly afterward.
You can pin him down with consecutive mid-range arts and attacks, especially if your fighters can trigger their Feint and Power Burst battle Skills regulary. Don’t hesitate to burn MP to perform your Special Arts and Spells.
After defeating Del Argosy, watch more scenes and you’ll be transported to Astral automatically and immediately thrown to another battle with Arachmene.
After the battle, Lias will take you back to his mansion. He’ll also give you two Force Swords. The Force Swords are already strong on their own but you can Customize them to make them even stronger. Make sure to save first, then have the Orchestra or Goddess’ Arrival songs playing in the background while customizing them. Here are the combinations:
* Force Sword + Philosopher’s Stone = Silvance (Roddick, Ashlay)
* Force Sword + Moonrock = Meteor Striker (Cyuss)
