Side Chapter 2: The Lynx Strikes

A side-on stealth stage: the top floors, the basement chase, the swim and the boss room, with every pickup on the way.

Side Chapter 2 goes back into the facility for a second side-on stealth stage, again with no numbered verses. The stealth rules carry over: guards see along a cone, a strike from behind or from a door or vent kills them outright and starts Witch Time, vents turn you into a lynx and water into a centipede. The route crosses the top floor and its three lifts, drops a floor to a panel that opens a big gate, rides down to the basement, where a giant Homunculus breaks through the walls, swims a flooded stretch, climbs through rooms of hanging containers and ends in a boss room. It holds one Echo of Memory, one Figure Box, an angel fight that counts as a Heavenly Light, four fast-food pickups and five Bewitchments; nothing waits for later. The Bewitchments stay hidden in the menu until the side chapter's first clear, but they count when earned on this first play.

Bewitchment: Collect all Halos hidden behind closed doorsAchievement
Location
Side Chapter 2 · Top floor to the basement – Some doors carry a sign of a winged figure ringed by halos. Open each one you pass with ZL and take the Halos inside. Every marked door lies before the ladder down into the water, so try each one on the way rather than coming back.

Before the lift to the basement

The first lift, at the building's left end, runs all the way down to the basement, where the giant Homunculus starts its chase. Pick up the toilet paper, burger and fries and open the marked halo doors up here before riding it, so the walk doesn't turn back. Anything missed can be collected later by replaying the side chapter from Chapter Select once the side chapter is finished.

Bewitchment: Avoid getting hit by the pursuing Cumulonimbus' attacksAchievement
Location
Side Chapter 2 · Basement – One floor below the start, to the right of where the second lift stops, a control panel unlocks a big gate down in the basement; use it on the way. Then ride the first lift, at the building's left end, all the way down. The giant Homunculus bursts through a wall there and hunts you twice: in the basement before the water and in the container rooms after it. Take no hit from it in either stretch; keep moving and dodge when it swings.
Requires
Summary
A Bewitchment, one of the side chapter's five. The chase begins as soon as you reach the basement, so know it before you ride down.

Bewitchment: Find and defeat AffinityAchievement
