Robert turned to Deruella. "Hello, Deruella." At her suggestion, he looked at Kicara for a moment. Thinking back on her fight with Lock, an idea came to him.

"How about this?" he began. "Most members of the slime family seem to be almost immune to physical damage. Under normal circumstances, it should be possible for one of them to steal one of those weapons relatively safely. From there, we should be able to reverse-engineer it."

"I'm sorry, Kicara," he continued, "but it would be too risky for you to go into one of their bases." He then pointed to her slime core, saying, "If you got hit in your core, the wound would most likely be fatal. I really don't want to lose you, so please don't take any chances."

He looked at Deruella again for a moment, looking at her current condition. He then said, "I take it that you haven't received nearly enough spirit energy to fully compensate your needs." Strengthening his resolve for a moment, he added, "If there's any way I can help you, any way at all, please ask. You've helped us, so please, let me help you, too."
