An injured protagonist wakes in the abandoned North Ridge mines and realizes Max is missing. Seamus, the demoness, appears and calls the place a burial ground, taunting that Mr. Baldwin’s demon army likely tore Max apart. Demons launch an assault; the protagonist fights but is overmatched. A veteran volunteer says he's fought her before and takes on the demoness while others target the younger fighter. A Dragon Blaze flame attack fails and an opponent uses electrical stimulation to boost strength. The protagonist lunges—Now's my chance! Die!—but the brawl continues; Carl is warned to stay focused and Max’s fate remains unknown.
