Oh really, Claude!? Wow, I didn't know there was a Tournament being held here in Lacour! I mean, how could I possibly tell, after seeing all those people around Lacour talking about the Tournament of Arms?
To be a bit more fair to Claude, if the player doesn't bother talking to anyone, goes straight to the King and gets right back out of the castle, s/he may have overlooked the event. But who plays an RPG like that anyway? They could have bothered with some alternative line for Claude, just to make him sound less retarded (not that it would get a lot better anyway).
Be prepared, here comes Claude & Rena part 2! If you haven't been set off by their unnecessarily complicated relationship already, you should be soon enough. The group is sort of stuck: they won't be able to have an audience with the king anytime soon. Our journey could use a deviation to Linga, where we might find someone who can decipher the ancient writings found in the Cross Cave (however, if you try that, you'll find out that the only linguist available is off to watch the Tournament), but Claude seems to have something else on his mind. He was able to fight off hordes of monsters up to here, without relying on his phase gun, so he feels a lot more confident on his physical strength than he was before. The chance of dueling with Dias at the Tournament is too tempting (his motive? Probably jealousy, but we can't be sure). Fortunately, this sudden spurt of sportsmanship by Claude may not be without advantages: they said that the winner of the Tournament of Arms could get enough visibility to have an audience with the king right away... Yeah, you guessed it, Claude can't win, or else it would be too easy, wouldn't it?
