“Ah, tunnels. It’s an underground maze. I should have thought of that.”
I couldn’t help but speaking out when I saw the entrance to the tunnels.
When we finished talking, we followed Greed into a cemetery outside of the city. After we had entered the central hut and lifting up a piece of plank, a passage opened up before us.
I have to ask, why are there so many underground passages in the Abyss? Are there any ancient relics like the legacy of the Black Gold Era?
“Are there any treasures down there?”
Aliyah immediately asked.
“Come on. Isn’t it more important to be safe than to find treasures? Aren’t we going to finish the mission?”
“Shut up Bai Yueguang. You just want to skip this level. It’s fine as long as there is monsters underground.”
When Bai Yueguang was faced with this, he embarrassedly looked to Tai Shixi.
Tai Shixi smiled.
“Just whose fault is it that you’re so obvious?”
Tai Shixi silently looked up and ignored Bai Yueguang.
“Alright, enough nonsense.”
I quickly said.
“Let’s hurry up and finish the quest, time’s short.”
“Fine, fine. It seems that our lovely Fir has gotten tired of this body and want’s to go back to her original one.”
Hei Luoli laughed.
“Hey you eat what ever you want to so don’t spout nonsense.”
Staring at Hei Luoli, I replied.

“Ara ara. Isn’t it good that someone is training your body?”
“Not at all!”
I turned to Greed.
“Is there any lighting? It looks pretty dark down there.”
“About that……”
Greed scratched her head.
“Most demons have the ability to see in the dark. So here……”
“Do you want us to use ghostification……well, what’s your tolerance for light magic?”
“Eh? As long as I don’t touch it directly……”
“That’s fine.”
I tapped the skill and a ball of light appeared in the air.
Greed quickly took two steps back.
“Light……light magic?”
She looked at the ball of light and turned to me.
“Are you someone that’s related to the humans’ church?”
“I’m basically unrelated to them, it’s just that I happen to know a few people in it. For various reasons they had given me light magic to use.”
“So it was like that……well, we generally destroy anyone that we meet that can use light magic, but since you are friends with the Demon King there shouldn’t be any problem.”
“Hearing that really calms me down.”
I was suddenly worried about all of the people in the church who were going to infiltrate the Abyss.
Well, they’re to blame too. We are obviously big shots but weren’t part of the group. Whose fault is that?
“Allright. If we’re done with the bullshit, let’s get out of here. Didn’t you say we were in a hurry?”
Aliyah, can you keep from destroying the mood?

At the same time
Church Headquarters
After an hour of negotiating, Yerbil came out of the conference room after the guidelines and the actions had been set into place but her team members gave her worried gazes from the doorway.
“What’s wrong? Worried that they wouldn’t let me go? They won’t let such a good opportunity go to waste anyways. Anyways, this is a good chance to weaken the demons in a single strike. The old men up above won’t disagree.
“No, that isn’t the problem.”
One of the Saints replied.
“It’s actually because we’ve received a message. It came from the college.”
“From the college?”
Yerbal thought for a moment.
“That’s right. Those guys will have woken up and found out that we had evacuated. It’s all right. By the time they get to the Church we will probably be in the Abyss, won’t we?”
“That’s not it. We learned that they weren’t as simple as we thought.”
Another Saint said.
“We’ve received a message from the person in charge of tracking them. It seems they’ve inexplicably disappeared from the college. The people in charge of monitoring the the college’s exits didn’t see any sign of them leaving……in other words, they disappeared inside of the college.”
“What?”
Yerbil’s face paled.
“Damn it, I should have know that those guys wouldn’t be so easy to deal with……what about the crack in the college?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“There’s no sign of an intrusion and it has not widened.”
“……What about in the Ice College?”
“Princess Snow doesn’t know what happened. Things are peaceful as usual.”
“……Oh my god.”
Yerbil rubbed her chin in thought.
“Where did those guys go……according to the report there isn’t any entrances to the Abyss there.”
“The college didn’t report any sign of necromancy, but……there is a problem……”
“What! Stop mumbling!”
“It seems that there are signs of spacial transmission, and it wasn’t from using a transmission array but instead from using high-level skills.”
“You mean a dimensional magic user? How is that possible! It isn’t so simple to transfer so many people for even the most advanced dimensional mage, and on top of that, they found someone with enough free time to help them……”
As she said this, Yerbil suddenly stopped.
“Well, anyways. We basically need to speed up our progress. What were they thinking, going straight into the Abyss! Did they become tired of living?! And bastard helped them go? Do they have water in their brain?”
At the same time, in the Cold Hell’s judgement building, Ming Luoxin suddenly sneezed.
“Lord Ming Luoxin.”
Yoxin said from the side.
“You should fasten your shawl or you will catch a cold.”
“No way, I’ve never been sick ever since I’ve become a judge.”
“Be good and obey~”
“Stop fussing. Don’t treat me like a child!”
Although Ming Luoxin was fuming as she said that, she still put on the shawl the Yoxin handed her.
“Achoo!”
She didn’t expect to sneeze again.
“All right, all right. Come on back home.”
“What is going on today? Really……”
