MISSION 4: BLACK KNIGHT
************************************************************************

You are back in that long hallway. Now, RUN toward the fountain room
halfway through the hall. Phantom, the boss you just fought, chases you
into the room! AHHH!

You can kill it for a lot of Red Orbs, or run into the study. I suggest
you run into the fountain room. Once you leave the room through any
door, Phantom will leave.

In the fountain room, use the Pride of Lion on that force field. A mini
boss fight will occur, but it isn't as tough as the Phantom.

************************************************************************
MINI BOSS: SHADOW
DIFFICULTY: FAIRLY EASY
The Alastor and Shotgun will be your best friend again. Start by
shooting it while at close range. Remember to dodge. The shotgun takes
a huge toll on it and it will be weakened soon.

Shadow eventually turns into some liquid orb. START SLASHING IT WITH THE
ALASTOR BEFORE IT TRANSFORMS BACK INTO TIGER MODE. It helps to be in
Devil Trigger mode, as you will bring him down to red status in one go.
The Alastor is ineffective while Shadow is in Tiger Mode and the Shotgun
is ineffective while in Liquid Mode. After he turns red, just dodge him
at all costs. He will eventually explode. If you does catch you, he
will explode with you in his mouth; very damaging.

The Shadow attacks somewhat intense, so return to the study to recharge
yourself.

Once Shadow is dead, the door above opens.
************************************************************************

Head through the door the battle opened, right after Shadow is dead.
Inside this high room, slash that shield similar to the one you saw in
Mission 1.

See the circle on the ground? Step on it and it rises to the top, near
a shining object. Jump towards the shining object. It is the Death
Sentence.

Head back down and travel up the staircase. There are double doors
nearby for you to go through. In this bedroom, insert the Death
Sentence into the statue next to the mirror.

Grab the Melancholy Soul item that drops. Nelo Angelo will then pop out
of the mirror and will head through the doors leading outside. Follow
him outside.

************************************************************************
BOSS: NELO ANGELO
DIFFICULTY: HARD
Nelo Angelo appears 3 times, and the 3rd is harder than the first 2.
His name means non angel in Spanish (now they can't say you didn't learn
anything from this game).

He has a few attacks, learn them to avoid them. He has a basic
Slash/Slash/Double Slash combo, similar to your own, with the timing
done right. Just run from this one, as even dodging all 4 slashes at
close range can be really tough. He has a stinger like move, which he
usually teleports before. He'll put his sword in a stabbing stance,
like the Gotetsu from Kenshin. Then he will charge an INSANE distance
and skewer you if he can.

Roll out of the way, and hack away at him. He will teleport more often
than not, so as to catch you unawares. Each time he teleports, be ready
to dodge, as he will come out of it with an attack. He has fireballs
that he takes a second to charge, and if you can hit him in that second,
good for you, you'll disrupt him. If you can't dodge it, it isn't that
hard. He also has the upper slash, then the dive slash. This will hit
you even in the air, so beware.

To kill him, you have to strike at the right times. Right after he
attacks is good. You can't just blindly run in, as he will block you.
If you can get into devil trigger mode, then he can't block your last 2
hits, to hack away at him. But beware, he has a move where he holds his
sword horizontally that basically nothing can deter him from. Jump if
you see him doing this. Don't ever try to hit him after a teleport. He
is quite full of himself, and taunts you often. Feel free to fix his
face at this moment. He will also prepare for some moves by holding his
sword straight up. Hit him while he's doing this, and he'll reel
backwards. If you hit him again, he'll be stunned and you can hack at
him a bit. Generally just hit and run, don't use the guns to often as
they do little damage, and he will block them, or even better shoot his
fireballs at you.

His third form is the same as the first two, but he's bigger and
stronger. Besides that, it's all good.
