                                                Uh essentially they go in this back and forth (talking) ML tries to grab mc but the stone the mc has raised a protective shield that only activates if the user feels like this is a life and death situation 
This makes the ml freeze and he's like fuck I gotta calm down and solve this 
Then boom scary gate opens 
ML is like bro if I beat this gate rn can we actually talk about everything 
Mc is like damn...I guess yeah 
ML defeats this gate that has like poison and hallucinations ( the main monster was able to mimic MC's voice) anyways ML defeats gate rushes back out 
Mc is gone , ml's heart is racing he's like where tf is mc 
The old man is like he went into the gate saying he couldn't take living like this anymore
ML rushes back into the gate tryna find mc only to find his bag 
Then it switches pov to Mc and talks about his past with Dietrich ( the esper who imprinted on him) and how abusive and toxic the relationship was and how he was guilted into staying with him cause he believes it's his fault Dietrich brother died cause he was scared of guiding him in an intense situation 
Mind you that scene happened when the mc was 15...and Dietrich imprinted on him when he was 15 and kept him ignorant of how shit works in the real world forcefully confining him in the house
