The player has to fight two powerful enemies together - Naamah and Glasya-Labolas. Here's how to defeat them in Shin Megami Tensei 5: Vengeance.

In the Save the Students Quest and Save the Students (cont.), the player will be faced with a brand new enemy, one that is a part of the Qaditsu.

Unlocking the Save The Students Quest

Save The Students is a main quest that any player continuing through the main story will run into eventually. Specifically, it starts when the player first unlocks the Shinagawa area of the game.

The quest starts with the player being informed by Aogami that many students have been kidnapped. In Vengeance, the player also speaks to Yoko and Tao. Tao thinks the player should save everyone, but Yoko thinks that would put Miyazu’s life at risk as she is still nowhere to be seen. Either way, the player will be given multiple locations to head to, to find students to help.

This quest is split into two parts, Save The Students, and Save The Students Cont. The first part of it will see the player finding a few students scattered around in the early map, while the second is where it gets interesting and will have the player fight an interesting new boss introduced in Vengeance.

“Follow the signals and search for the students in the Tennozu area.”

Starting off, the player will be located right next to the Tennozu Isle Leyline fount. From there, the player will have to head to 4 different locations to find 4 missing students.

Each of the student’s locations is pinpointed on the map, which should make the search a whole lot easier. In addition, Amanozako will tell the player that she can smell a human whenever one is near.

The first student will be found next to the Tennozu Leyline fount. Specifically, northwest after climbing on a platform. When spoken to, the student will explain that a demon asked her about what she disliked about herself, which she answered with her legs. Then, the demon tried tearing her leg. After healing her, she is sent to safety.

The next human is a boy, not too far from the current location. His location is more to the east of the Tennozu Leyline fount. Upon finding him, he will tell the player that a demon woman was cutting up his hand and laughing. Just like the first case, he is healed and sent off to safety.

The third human here will be found south of the Tennozu Leyline fount. He’ll be under the debris of a building. The same demon woman took a bite of his hair and left him. He is also healed and sent off.

Now, the final student is located to the very northeast of the map, where the player will have to pass by some Jack-o-Lanterns to reach her. With that, the player will have completed the first part of this quest, with the real challenge still ahead.

With this part over, the player will receive 5000 experience points as a reward.

“You've rescued all of the students in the area.

You should move on.”

Completing Save The Students (Cont.)

“Follow the signal and search for the student near Shinagawa Pier.”

Aogami will tell the player that he has found another signal, prompting the player to go to its trail.

The player will have to advance through the map until they reach a new Leyline Fount, specifically the Shinagawa Pier Leyline Fount. From there, the player should head north a bit more before taking a right, and then a right again. The player will run into Abdiel and Ichiro, where they’re having a conversation. The relationship between these two individuals was somewhat relevant, even in the original game Shin Megami Tensei 5.

Once deeper in, the player will have to do some jumping to reach higher grounds. They will run into another character here, Yuzuru, with his demon, Hayataro, gravely injured. The player can help by handing over some chakra drops. Continuing, the player will have to get to even higher ground by jumping around.

The player should now reach a new Leyline fount, called the Container Yard Leyline fount. Here, the player is almost done with this quest. However, the hardest part is yet to come. The player is now faced with a difficult boss fight new to Vengeance.

Before advancing further, the player should prepare themselves, as the foe ahead is not an easy one to beat. Their enemy will be Eisheth, one of the Qaditsu.

Before this fight, the player should keep in mind that this powerful demon has a weakness to force, but blocks both dark and fire. Her skills, apart from Toxic Cloud, are all physical, so the player on this side shouldn’t worry about her hitting their weakness.

After defeating her, the player will be able to save the last student, and with that, they will have finally finished the Save the Student quests and will be able to move on to the next part of the story.
