How To Complete The Late Riser Side Story In Octopath Traveler 2
To begin this quest, make your way to the Tropu’hopu on the island of Toto’haha and interact with a man known as the Master Fisherman standing at the entrance. Engage with him, and you’ll soon learn of his worry regarding the Sleepy Fisherman – a highly skilled individual who always manages to oversleep and be late for work, much to the Master’s dismay. However, upon conversing with the Sleepy Fisherman himself, who can be found idling nearby, he reveals that his tardiness is not intentional; he simply struggles with waking up punctually.
Challenge (Hikari) or provoke (Orchette) the Sleepy Fisherman and then engage him in a fateful duel. His level 3 shield point suggests that vanquishing him will not be an arduous task. He’s particularly vulnerable against Swords and Bows, which could prove advantageous in your battle. Once you have successfully knocked him out and plunged him into a sound slumber, a captivating cut scene will unfold before your eyes. Seems his sleep problem is solved! Upon its conclusion, you’ll be rewarded handsomely for your efforts – 4800 Leaves and an elusive Slippery Nut (M).
