    Exit the menu and watch another cutscene. You will receive an introduction to the Notebook.
  4. 4
    Head through the door ahead and follow the path until you encounter an enemy. You will receive a tutorial on Assault Attacks.
  5. 5
    Initiate the battle against the Jeweled Ripper. Hit it once with a normal attack to trigger a tutorial on Crafts. Use your Crafts to defeat the enemy.
  6. 6
    Continue along the path until you reach a Charging Station. You will receive a tutorial on its function. Interact with it to restore HP/EP.
  7. 7

  8. 8
    After defeating the enemies, go to the right corner and open the Chest to obtain a Breath R.
  9. 9
    Make your way into the next room to battle a Juicy Organ. Switch Juna’s weapon to Gunner Mode, inspect the enemy, and use the Needle Shoot Art, as it is weak to Earth.
  10. 10
    After defeating the enemies, you will learn about Juna’s weapon change ability.
  11. 11
    Continue to the end of the corridor and open the Chest to obtain a Fire Bolt R.

  14. 14
    Continue onwards until you reach a path that allows you to go left. Open the Chest to obtain a Proxy Puppet.
  15. 15
    Proceed into the next room to face the sub-boss, Gigant Organ. This enemy is weak to Earth, so Juna’s Needle Shoot Art is effective. Use Crafts that hit multiple enemies to put them in Break status simultaneously.
  16. 16
    After defeating the enemies, you will unlock S-Crafts. Hold [R1] and select 7th Slash - Fallen Leaves to defeat the enemy.
  17. 17
    Continue following the path until you enter a small corridor. Use the Charging Station before entering the next room to face the boss, Magic Knight Direwolf.
  18. 18
    Before attacking the Magic Knight Direwolf, inspect it using a Battle Scope. It is very weak to Earth (180), slightly weak to Water and Wind (120), and resistant to Fire (80). Use Juna’s Needle Shoot and Kurt’s Air Strike Arts.
  19. 19
    When the Knight enters an Enhanced State, it becomes easier to Break but deals more damage. Use Crafts with a high break rating, such as Rean’s Crescent Flash and Kurt’s Rain Slash.
