 Snastro. Snastro. Welcome back to Secretive Mana. I don't know why this mana is so secretive. Perhaps that's the point of the game. Perhaps we will eventually find out. Anyway, we have been abandoned by our female friend that helped us out of a boiling pot of stuff and about to be eaten by goblins, so she left, so in the meantime we're hanging out with sleeping goblins and mushbooms and trying to find our way to this underground palace. I mean, we're underground bound to stumble upon a palace down here, right? And in the meantime, we're going to level up to level six. I'm almost kind of dreading this next part. That came from a mushboom. I don't want that treasure. It's poison. I'm almost kind of dreading this next section because as much as I love the soundtrack to this game, the next section has some of the most annoying music ever, well maybe not ever, but it's irritating music. Then we get the magic rope, and that is like the magic mirror to the past and not literally. You use it to return to the beginning of a dungeon, at least that's the thing. I never use it. Should I sit here and try and level up on these guys? There, see I got one of them and they immediately reproduce. It's ridiculous. It's a waste of time. Okay, there's a stairway down here. Yeah, I think the magic rope brings you back to the beginning of a dungeon or castle or something. I can't remember. I never use it, whatever it is. Oh, and we have an area dedicated to killing these things. So if you want, you can hang out here and level up. The thing is that these things are unpredictable and they attack like assholes, and you get poisoned very quickly and very easily, so I'm not going to bother with that. I'm going to go down here. Give me more sleeping guards to thwack of that sound, and one more down here. Yeah, I was thinking the, obviously the main character here, he's got the chrono hair. It's a little bit longer and the part is farther on his left, a little less spiky but still spiky nonetheless. Still has that chrono vibe. And then the female character in this game, who I named Penny, is pretty much a dead ringer for Marle and Marley. I think it's just Marle, isn't it? Is the E silent? Anyway, screw all that. We got another little stage here. You can do a little karaoke thing. And we got a stairway here that does not go to heaven. It doesn't go anywhere. You got to go to this stairway. Ah, another skull. It's a fracture. Anything over here? No, I can't even go over there. Wow, we don't have the, I don't want to give anything away. Yes, this is what I'm talking about. This freaking music is so irritating. And hey, these guys aren't enemies. And my sword is automatically put away for some reason. That means we are among friendly peoples. Doing magic tricks. David Copperfield, does he have his own island? Well, no shit, Sherlock. It's an underground palace. That's a pretty cool helmet. It's like a cow skull helmet this guy's got. Here we go. We've got the sword orb. So, he can take it and restore it accordingly in a manner of seconds. And it's seeped. And now our sword is a healthy silver color. As a sword should be. So, let's check out some stuff. Let's talk to some people. Eh. Happens when you live in California. What do you got? Okay, we've got a lot of expensive stuff. But some very useful things here. I like how the store has like weird items like the rabbit cap and the robe. What the hell are those? I guess I'll get some head gear. Yeah, as you can see in the middle there, you see my head. Obviously, those are the items that apply to me. And when you have other people in your party there, heads will respectively show up in the middle there to power wrist. Not even sure how much that matters, but whatever. Let's sell some junk. Get rid of... I want to keep the hair ribbon because what's her name is coming back soon enough. And get rid of one of these elbow pads. Keep the other one for now. What else is going on in this dank little town? What do we got over here? What's up, dude? Have you been next door? Don't mind me as I block this pathway. There's nothing over here. You need to go next door. Please go next door. Huh. It's with a giant tablecloth. Yeah, sure. Got nothing else to do. Except look for the underground palace, but whatever. Wah, wah. Cute. Ah, yes. The same scam you hear on public transit every day. I only need $300 to pay my medical bill to see him again two weeks later. I only need $300 to pay my medical bill two weeks after that. I only need $300 to pay. It's like people aren't that stupid. Okay, here we go. He was crying. Uh, what the hell? Oh. Yep, sure did. Now, where is this sprite guy from anyway? Yeah, I got all my money back. That's pretty cool. Nothing else? That's it? Oh, cool. There's another one-man show over here. Do a little Axl Rose action. Sorry. That's my go-to, uh, um, song and karaoke. I've only done karaoke a couple times, but if they have guns and roses, especially if they have Don't Cry, gotta do Don't Cry. Just because at the end, when he does the Don't Cry. For like, seemingly like two minutes. Uh-oh. I recognize that music. It's boss music. That must be time for a boss. Looks like these monsters have followed me, followed the monosword in here. Damn, looks like I can't sit there and charge. I can at least hack and slash at this guy. Yep, that's all you do. He spits out a little bouncy ball that explodes. You can dodge it. It doesn't really do that much damage. And he just hack and slash your way to victory. Hack and slash away all of your problems. Order now, and you'll get a free power wrist. And you'll have a little sprite guy to follow you around. But wait, there's more. Pretty easy boss battle. Watching my brother get to this point and it was like such a huge deal. I think it's the music, personally. The music makes this like a thousand times more stressful than it really is. It's a pretty freaking easy boss fight. But yeah, as you can see, that sword upgrade gave us ten more hit points. Yeah, I was dishing out 21s and 22s. 23s outside before I got my sword polished up. How did I miss him? There we go. And he explodes. If you hit him enough times with a sword, he will explode. That's video game logic. Specifically early 90s video game logic. Ta-da! Way to go. Hey, that's a nice little bonus. Eh. Aha. You know, I never noticed that. It broke out of a sealed palace. That means there must be a way in. Why didn't you tell me something about that then? Oh, because it's quote-unquote buried so you can't get in there. So this monster must have plowed its way out. Hmm, okay. Well, there's only one thing to name him. And that's Clyde. Name him after my dog. They're the same color. That's that Clyde dog. Well, that's no fun. And ask her to... Okay. So yeah, here's where we got to go back to the stupid... Oh! I forgot, this is when we get the bow and arrow. Now we need to get Penny back and equip that on her. But we'll do that next time. Thanks for watching and have a great rest of your day.
