To access the Intelligent Monster's route (name might change in the future), you must have Julia with you in her Normal personality and lose two battles against normal monsters and two battles against any of the Monster Girls (meaning you need to lose to Rubber Naga, Slime Girl, Flower Girl or Aquatic Girl - this one only works if you lose against as Rosa).
After doing so, head to the dungeon once more and wait around for a bit. Julia will then speak to the Protagonist and ask if the Protagonist thinks some of the monsters are different compared to the others. If the Protagonist agrees that some of them are, in fact, strange Julia becomes relieved and says she plan on trying to find out what exactly causes it. Otherwise, Julia gets annoyed at the fact that the Protagonist is seemingly too dense to realize this.
Shortly later, Julia remarks that the monsters are seemingly avoiding them. She asks for the Protagonist to humor her. If the Protagonist refuses to, it annoys her.
If the Protagonist agrees, they walk around and Julia notices that the monsters are stalking them while also keeping out of the way. The Protagonist becomes curious as to how that can happen, which causes Julia to say that they're intelligent so they're probably going to jump on them once they're weakend.
Julia's Fears
After finding out about the slave girls on floor twenty-one of the dungeon, Julia remarks that the monsters that used to avoid them are now coming closer. The Protagonist asks what makes her so sure, causing Julia to explain that the reason is that their party is poorly optimized, as they lack any heavy hitter in the party, such as Sarah or Ashley.
The Protagonist realizes that they should change their party as soon as possible.
Julia's Fears Comes True
Being in a party without a proper damage dealer such as Sarah, Ashley or Derrick, the monsters ambush the party, with Julia using the last of her energy to send a single message...
Waking back up, the Protagonist and Julia have both lost their souls and are about to be transformed into breeding slaves. As the monster leader talk, one of the flower girls remarks that she heard... "Something". She's not sure what it is exactly, but it sounds like impending doom.
The monster leader scoffs, asking what that could possibly sound like.
Right on time, Ashley appears, having lost her free will once more and entered her Berserk state. The monster leader looks shocked at Ashley, saying that she hadn't come down from the first few floors since last year, after having lost her soul. Ashley, however, demands for Julia to be freed, but the monsters refuse to give Julia up, resulting in a battle between a berserker, hellbent on saving her sister and a monster that only cares about creating new monsters.
The monster leader explains that the reason that Ashley is even alive right now and not like her friends is because she had run off and the monster queen didn't care enough to fix it. Ashley realizes that Julia won't be freed and instead prepares her for a battle with her life - and the life of her sister - on the line.

All-Out Battle! The Berserker VS The Frost Queen!Ashley is locked into her Berserker mode and doesn't care about her own stamina nor health. Instead, she focuses on simply attacking the Frost Queen with all of her might, wanting to defeat the monster that once made her lose her soul - and turned her friends into breeding slaves. After a long, intense battle, one of three outcomes happens.Victory - The Frost Queen is no more!The true route. If Ashley wins the battle, the Protagonist and Julia gets their souls back and they slowly go back to normal, with Julia being thankful of what Ashley did. Ashley is just relieved to see them both alive, but the joy is cut short, as Julia realizes that the Frost Queen is simply faking her own death. The Protagonist can either allow Ashley to kill the Frost Queen once and for all, or simply use a Chakram to enslave her, in order to punish her for what she's done to them. In case of the latter, the three of them decide to punish the Frost Queen, as she can no longer pose any threat to them. Defeat - Julia's Final ChanceIf Ashley is defeated during the battle, but Julia has completed the device, Ashley will be grabbed and be on the verge of losing her soul once more. Julia instinctively pulls up her bracelet and fires a single shot through the Frost Queen, killing her and saving Ashley. Ashley thanks her and decides to bring them home. Julia just says "Home..." weakly before they all return home once more.Defeat - New Breeding SlavesIf Ashley is defeated and Julia doesn't have the device, an ending plays out, in which the Protagonist, Julia and Ashley are all transformed into breeding slaves. They lose their minds and revert to a very basic stage - eat when hungry, sleep when tired. The rest of the time, they're used as breeding slaves in order to create an army to take over the town for the monsters. |
