Main thing if you want to get Route C done fast: do the Recycled Vessel side quest. Is super easy to do, and is required to get Route C's ending. However, the main thing you want is the Fool's Lament weapon. If you finish the side quest, you get the three Fool weapons, along with three Damascus steel. If you have enough money, fully upgrade the Fool's Lament as soon as you can, All it requires is the three Damascus steel, and caps at 999 damage, the max amount of damage in the game. The weapon is Extra Heavy, but it plows right through all enemies and mini bosses, even main game bosses at times.

To obtain this ending, you must first find all 33 weapons in the game. See Weapons Collector (30G) for info on that. Then at the end of the game, you will be given a choice. Make sure you save prior to the final boss fight and choose the first option afterward, to end the other character's life, which will unlock Ending C. You can then reload your save to unlock Something Very Special (90G).

For both Endings C and D, you'll need to collect all of the weapons before going up against Shadowlord. If you don't have all the weapons and try to finish the game, you'll get Ending B again. For the location of all the weapons in the game, please see Weapons Collector 
. There is one particular weapon that is collected while inside the Shadowlord's castle, past the point of no return (the Phoenix Sword). If this is the last weapon you need to pick up for these endings, that's fine. You can still get Ending C after you've entered Shadowlord's Castle, you just need to have all of them before you actually enter the final room to fight him.
After your fight with Shadowlord, you'll go up against one more additional enemy. After taking her down, you'll be given the choice of A) Sacrificing another, or B) Sacrificing yourself. For Ending C, choose the first option. After the non-skippable credits finish, be sure to save your game when prompted. When you're back on the main menu, choose "continue" and load up your save file. You'll start at the beginning of Part Two and can now make your way towards Ending D (Something Very Special
).
