DELTARUNE Chapter 2: A Cyber's World ( Part 2 of 4 )

The Chapter opens with Toriel calling out to Kris, as she discovers a knife and acts shocked. Shortly after, Toriel enters their room, revealing that she realized Kris ate the entire pie she had baked yesterday. Kris arrives late to School and meets up with Susie, who declares her desire to return to the Closet Dark World. As they approach the closet door, Noelle arrives and invites the two to study with her and Berdly at the Library. After she leaves, Kris and Susie enter the supply closet and arrive in Castle Town. However, they find it is as empty as when they first visited, with only Ralsei greeting them. Per Ralsei's instruction, Kris collects all of the objects from the Unused Classroom and brings them to the closet. This populates Castle Town with the denizens of Card Kingdom, with many of the new residents setting up shops. Eventually, Susie mentions that the pair have homework to do, prompting Ralsei to banish them from the Dark World until they start their homework. Before the two leave, Lancer and Rouxls Kaard enter Kris's inventory. Kris and Susie go to the Library to work on their project and discover a Dark World inside the computer lab. They meet Queen, the ruler of the Cyber World, who holds Noelle captive for her plans for world domination. When Werewires block the path, Ralsei arrives and casts Pacify, then regroups with Kris and Susie. The party fights against Queen's minions and later confronts Berdly, who had voluntarily joined forces with Queen. After a poor landing near Cyber City, Susie gets healed by Ralsei, and she becomes interested in healing magic. In her excitement, she takes off with Ralsei at a forked road, forcing Kris to explore on their own. While exploring the city, Kris reunites with with Noelle, who had escaped capture. In Kris's company, Noelle learns to be less fearful. In Ralsei's company, Susie learns to cast UltimateHeal, a weak healing spell. Eventually, the party reunites, but they and Berdly are captured by Queen as they approach her mansion. The party is imprisoned within the Mansion, but they manage to escape with Lancer's help. Kris, Susie, Ralsei, and Berdly unite to rescue Noelle. While navigating the Mansion, Berdly learns to be less arrogant after failing to solve multiple puzzles. The party ultimately confronts Queen on the Mansion's rooftop, where they fight her and Berdly, who she has caught and enslaved with a control wire. After fighting Queen, she explains the origin of the Cyber World: it was created by the Roaring Knight, who has since taken its leave. In the Knight's absence, Queen plans to force Noelle to expand the Cyber World by making a Dark Fountain. She then deploys her mecha, GIGA Queen, to attack the party. After defeating GIGA Queen, Queen encourages Noelle to make a Dark Fountain from her own will before shutting down. With everyone in agreement, Berdly attempts to make a Fountain, but is stopped by Ralsei, who explains that an excess of Dark Fountains would result in an apocalyptic event known as the Roaring. Learning this prompts Queen to abandon her plans. Kris seals the Library Fountain, and the Lightners all return to the Light World, waking up inside the computer lab. Berdly, Noelle, and Susie leave the computer lab, while Kris transports its various items to the school's supply closet, allowing the Cyber World's recruited Darkners, including Queen, to populate Castle Town. Kris and Susie return to the Dreemurr Residence, whereupon Toriel invites Susie to spend the night. As Kris goes to the bathroom, they rip out their SOUL and escape through the window, returning shortly afterward to place it back in their body. After Susie and Kris fall asleep while watching TV, Toriel calls the police to inform them that she found her van's tires slashed. After Toriel falls asleep waiting for the police to arrive, Kris wakes up and, with their knife, creates a Dark Fountain that envelops the entire room in a thick black mist. The Chapter ends as a smile forms across the TV screen.
