Learn how to defeat Bishamonten and the powerful Masakado in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster. Get the Masakadus Magatama and claim your destiny!

Alright, you've taken down the Shiten-O, and Bishamonten gave you a good chunk of EXP and a Power Incense for your trouble. Nice work! Now that those four pillars are down, the Shrine is back to its normal height, so it's time to head inside.

As soon as you step in, a voice will call out, asking who dares disturb its rest. Get ready, because a massive rumble is coming, and Masakado himself is about to appear before you. He'll introduce himself as the protector of Tokyo for the last thousand years and recognize you as the one with demonic power in a human body, destined to become the Lord of Chaos. He'll then ask why you've come all this way to see him. You've got a few options here:

• "Join me"
• "Give me something"
• "No reason"

If you go with "Join me", Masakado will explain that his power is tied to Tokyo's current state and he can't leave. If you choose "Give me something", he'll comment on how direct you are. Picking "No reason" will get a reaction from Masakado, noting that you just wiped out the Shiten-O for seemingly no cause, but he won't seem too surprised.

The big question is whether you intend to take over Tokyo. If you answer "Yes", Masakado will bestow his power upon you in the form of the Masakadus Magatama. He'll essentially hand over the reins as the Guardian of Tokyo. This is a huge moment, so make sure you're ready to accept the responsibility!
