>>24948501With the theater in ruins, the henchmen sacked, and their Miser in shambles, the battle against the Mallartauds finally comes to a close. In a sense, you might say you essentially cleared out an entire gang with no more than a hamster and a hedgehog as your cavalry. It's quite the accomplishment.
Disturbed by the chaos, Midoro immediately snaps out of his rest and puts on an attentive front. "I-I'm awake! I'M AWAKE! I'M AWA—WAWAWAWAWAWA!" the great explorer sputters. "What the heck happened here!? D-Did we win?!"
Taking caution with the debris, you slide down into the under-stage cellar, sidekick following close behind. "I think so. The deal was to thrash him and his goons before they could get their source to talk and that's what we did. We did exactly as we were told, guess now we just need to get that Electabuzz to safety."
"Oh boy, oh boy! So we didn't mess up? That's great news! Papa's gonna be SO proud of the GREAT EXPLORER!"
While Midoro bounces around and runs in circles, you carefully approach the Leek Miser's unconscious body. Fortunately, he still has the rest of your misfit team in his possession. It was an extremely close call, but you were able to defeat him in time, earning you the right to seize your partners back.
