Because of that, we were too confident in our actions.

Because there was no school, we waited until 8 or 9 AM to wake up, get breakfast and go to the school. After meeting Ms. Mari we learned that the church had left the Witt Empire at four AM. It was 11 AM now.

What bad luck. If thats true then Falan probably had to run too.

I said with a laugh.

Oh, early this morning when we had gotten to school there had been a letter on my table from Falan asking for a leave of absence from the school, so that basically happened.well, I dont care either way. Lanya is still here and its my job to monitor her.

Ms. Mari said as she drank her coffee.

Monitor?

Un. Sions Door said she is working on some strange things and theyve seen terms like green name, red name, and healthy state in the waste paper Lanyas left behind.

Eh? Does that mean she has a way to see our names and titles?

Who knows. Its best not to pry, but we cant gamble on this sort of thing, can we?

Ms. Mari kept an indifferent expression as she said that.

Ok. You should be careful too. Although I think Lanya is our friend and shouldnt do anything too outrageous.

Ill act the appropriately, but what are you going to do? How are you going to get into the Abyss without the Churchs help?

About that

I looked at Aliyah and Oyado, both of whom had had strained expressions.

Well, Well just think of another way. The entrance in the Ice Empireto be honest, its impossible for us to open it after whats happened. Maybe Yerbil knows how to sneak in though?

Open the passage to the Abyss in the Ice Empire? Even if we could, the people of the Empire wouldnt agree to it. And if we did it in secret then we would definitely become the enemy of the entire continent.

We would instantly become the same type of villains as Snakes Eye. I dont want this to happen right now anyways.

Well, its impossible so lets think of another way. Speaking of which, have you seen Bai Yueguang? I dont think Ive seen him for a while?

That guyhe heard that there were some interesting people in the city, so he was walking around looking for them.

Interesting people? I didnt see them share anythingwhatever. Ill ask when I see him.

I want to ask, even if you find a way to go, can your current identity leave?

Ms. Mari suddenly asked.

Your current body is not just borrowed from someone else, but they also have family. Wouldnt they be worried if you ran around like this?

Thats true. I was a little late getting home last night and Lilith stood in the door waiting for meI seriously dont know what to do. But if I dont go then there isnt any way that Ill be able to get my body back.

Thats something youre going to have to figure out. Well, if you fool around then it will just make other peoples family unhappy.

I know, I know. Dont worry.

I said, waving my hand.

Can I skip class this afternoon?

Hey, dont over do it.

All right, well try.

Then I took Aliyah and Oyado and left.

Tch. Who is going to go to class.

alicePOI

So what now? Are you really going to ask Pryn and Princess Snow?

Oyado suddenly asked after we had walked some distance.

How could we. We definitely would become the enemies of the continent if we opened it.

I immediately rejected that route.

What are you going to do then elder sister? Go back to Falans laboratory from yesterday? She said that there was a crack down there, why dont we try to open it?

Quit joking around. Whats the difference between that and opening the Ice Empires passage? Do you want it to become a second passageway to the Abyss?

Ah~ I didnt know. What do you think we should do big sister?

UmmLets look around some more. We may be able to find some cluesAh!

I suddenly recalled something.

Remember that elf we met? The nurse elf, didnt she say she was an information dealer? Maybe she has some information on entrances to the Abyss.

Oh, thats right.

Aliyah shared a look of realization.

Then lets hurry off!

Wait up. Lets call some more people and call Bai Yueguang. I dont think the three of us will be able to cross the wilds of the Abyss. From what I was able to see earlier, the creatures of the Abyss are much stronger than those on the Human side. Young people like us wouldnt be able to withstand it.

Ah, its rare to see you being so cautious.

Haha

I could only laugh a few times. Theres nothing I can do about it. The first time I went there I was only able to stay for a short time before I was sent back to this side.

Basically, lets go find Bai Yueguang. By the way, where does that guy live?

I heard that he lives in the teachers area since he was responsible for teaching oriental sword techniques.

Sword techniques

Does that guy think its all knife techniques? Why sword techniques?

Well, lets go and seeeh?

Just as I had finished talking I noticed Bai Yueguang, Tai Shixi and and Hei Luoli were heading towards us.

But someone a truly unexpected was following behind them!

I heard for Ms. Mari that you were looking for us. Something interesting happen?

Yeahthere was some trouble in the beginning and we were agonizing over finding a solution, but Ive just thought of a way.

I quickly walked over to the person behind them.

We meet again Ms. Louxin. Could you take us to the Abyss?

Thats right. The person following behind Bai and the others was the was someone that we had seen not too long ago. The master of the Cold Hell, Ming Louxin.
