"Well, Valencio - give it a try, then."
"Huzzah! I've been waiting a long time to use all these magi-circuit cards!"
He then set off to work immediately, gathering the blown-apart limbs and using the cards on them - first to detect the energy flows, then to join them together.
After some time, Valencio deemed the patch job good enough.
"I'm afraid your pelvis is totally demolished, but at least you can still move around using your wings and arms."

"Adequate."
"This unit suggests to not get in the way of my vengeance."
And with that, the thief jets off again, towards the North.
"What, not even a 'thank you'?"
Secretly you're glad that he didn't join you, that kind of vengeance-ful mindset really do not mesh well with con artists. Then you remembered, you were supposed to capture him for the folks in Kyo-Edo. Darnit.
But, good things come to those who wait, as Millie and Clyde's walking over to your location in the goblin grove. Seems like they've just arrived.
"Heey! Rosa! Craig! Valencio! Nemo! Are you ready to go North?"
Millie with her evergreen enthusiasm and positivity really lifts your spirits after that bummer of a machine man. Seems like Craig thinks so too, as you spy a smile from him as he saw Millie.
Right, then - time to get on with the rendezvous.
