York stood up, staring in surprise and disgust at the wriggling puddle of mud by the wall. He could see the light wrapping around it like chains, pressing down every time it tried to rise, and he could finally smell the smell of hell—the stench of rotting flesh as it turned to ashes in lava.

“...... Is it still alive?" he asked.

Isis shook off the blurred flesh on his hand, stretched his body, and provoked a little sneer on his bloodstained lips when he turned around, looking like he was not inferior to the cruelty and evil of the demon: "Of course." ”

“...... Is this still alive?" muttered the priest in disbelief.

"It's what it looks like. Iss glanced at him disdainfully, "Or how do you think you became the high priest? ”

York was stunned, and instantly a layer of goosebumps appeared all over his body, and then layers of cold sweat, and the whole person shivered cold, itchy and numb like poison.

He didn't feel it at all...... He had forgotten that he had become Laval and had almost been beheaded...... He probably didn't want to remember at all subconsciously.

He frantically reached out to touch his face—no beard.

"It's been peeled off. Ed comforted him.

York tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled ugly. He should have fainted longer than he felt himself...... How lucky.

He looked away from the puddle of rotten flesh and back. It was disgusting to look at, but he couldn't control his curiosity.

"It's hard to believe that intelligent beings grow like this. He said, "It doesn't even have a head!"

The puddle of rotten flesh trembled and let out a gruff and broken laugh—an unquestionable mockery.

"It's covered in heads. Isis said, "As long as there is a little left on you......"

"Is!" Ed interrupted him with a smirk, reassuring York, "not at all, really, not at all!"

York grimaced. He now understands that the dragon did it on purpose...... Most likely to avenge the spell he cast when he thought he was going to die. Although it seemed unharmed now, that roar was enough to prove that his spells were not useless.

Perhaps because of this comfort, or perhaps because of the almost childish "revenge", the pastor's rejection and vigilance against this alien he never dared to believe in were unconsciously weakened.

He thought he should even apologize to him...... Or thank you. But in the end he didn't say anything.

There seemed to be a slight flicker in the hall, and as he looked up warily, Ed sighed and spoke.

"Gotta find a way to get it out as soon as possible. He said, "The three-storied pagoda hates it." ”

“...... The Three-Storied Pagoda hates demons?" York asked. The tower also intrigued him.

"No...... It hates dirty, smelly things," Ed replied, a little helpless and a little proud, "especially after it's so clean and shiny." ”

.

They ended up stuffing it into a spell-sealed, ice-enchanted chest. When the door of the three-storied pagoda opened again, a petite figure rushed over with joy and jumped back with a scream.

"What's that?!" she cried, "it's disgusting!"

“...... Tess!"

Ed cried out in joy, his eyes quickly catching the little mongoose lying on her shoulder, the little thing waving its paw at him steadily and gracefully.

"You're back!"

He smiled, his mouth almost reaching his ears. There was a gray shadow flashing in the depths of the soul...... But he is not easily shaken now.

Just think it's a dream. He thought.

He spread his arms and rushed over and hugged the cute and hateful little thief so hard that she lifted her feet off the ground, giggling and slapping him on the shoulder.

"You dye your hair?" she said, "it's a pretty color! You know, I thought I'd dye it purple before!"

Ed laughed and finally let go of her, "What about Rosa and Cethiana? aren't you together?"

"Looks like you know everything. Tess pouted, "They went to Neo City...... I'll tell you about that later. ”

"You'll have a lot to say in a minute. Naria, who was standing with her arms crossed, flew over with a diagonal glance.

Tess immediately rubbed over with a flattering face: "I'll tell you whatever sweetheart wants to hear!"

The smile in Naria's eyes couldn't be hidden, but she stubbornly ignored her.

"What the hell is this?" she glared at the transparent box that Iss was carrying on her shoulder, and her scalp tingled when it was stuffed with red, black and wriggling things, "Could it be the ......?"

She imagined it for a moment, and suddenly a chill struck.

"It's a demon. Ed replied simply, "I don't know what happened to the real Lord Laval, it's best to send a message to Anktann as soon as possible." ”

"Write a letter and give it to me. ”

Balk, who had been watching them for a while in silence with a smile on his face, said, "And ......"

He turned to Yago.

"And this one. He said.

"He's a pastor. York reminded.

"I thought we had already made a decision?" Balk raised an eyebrow.

"No," York quickly realized that his tone was probably wrong, "I mean, you might need help to prevent him from escaping." ”

"Don't worry. Balk smiled, "We know how to entertain a spellcaster. ”

The old man's smile always looked a little innocent, but York felt a chill creeping up his spine, silently stepped out of the way, and watched as the two warriors who were also ordinary-looking, wearing only the simplest cloth armor, took Yago away.

You can't cast spells in Lockburg—he suddenly remembered, and couldn't help but look back at the three-storied pagoda again. There doesn't seem to be such a restriction in the three-storied tower...... Or does the three-storied tower have its own rules?

He tugged at his crumpled white robe, his eyes unconsciously straightened a little. The experience of this day was so rich that it was a little overwhelming for him to bear.

And the old priest who had been taken away did not resist, and did not even look at them as he left.

“...... If you want to dig something out of that guy's mouth, I'm afraid it's a little hard. Tess said.

"Who knows. Balk smiled meaningfully, "I think we might have a good harvest." ”

"I think we've had a pretty good day. Naria let out a long sigh, her nerves, which had been tense for days, finally able to relax a little, and intense exhaustion swept over her.

She knew it was far from over, but Ed was back, and so was Is...... Even Tess and Norway were by her side.

It doesn't get much better than that.

- It's worth making some delicious celebrations.

She thought to her contentment, suppressing the uneasiness that was still surging in her heart.
