I entered the mirror and what I was greeted with was a room in a dungeon. The mirror behind me was gone. How were we supposed to return? I could teleport but what about him? Well, I guess I could make a portal appear again and make Rina play the part of convincing him thatโs how it was supposed to be all along. However, what was clear now, was that someone was trying to interfere with us again. Was it VHEPO again?
โRina, Arthur, can you hear me?โ
โYes, my master.โ
โYes, my lord.โ
โSomeone is interfering with Angband townโs opening event. Rina, this could be a ruse to get us not to pay attention to whatโs happening at Castle Academy, so pay extra attention with Lain on any anomalies. Arthur, I want you to accompany John II to Angband to see if you both can figure out whatโs going on.โ
โAs you wish, master.โ
โYes, my lord.โ
I looked around. Nanashi was there and stood in front of me but turned away from him. In front of both of us there was a small girl crying in the corner. She was imprisoned behind a set of metal bars. And what more she was clearly some kind of demon because there were horns on her head and she had black feathered wings.
Nanashi started talking to the sobbing Demon Girl.
โWhy are you crying? Do you want to be set free?โ
โMy eyes? My eyes? Where is my father? Please help me!โ
The girl slowly made her way towards Nanashiโs voice. She grasped around until her white hands reached the bars. Nanashi took her hand.
โCalm down. My name is Nanashi. I am an adventurer. Please tell us everything you know.โ
โI donโt know who you are oni-san, but Lammuโs Cabal is trying to destroy this world! They have captured my father and imprisoned me here. โ
โRaynar, can you do something about her sight?โ
โHelping her is not part of the requirements for this dungeon. I donโt see any quest notification about it. Besides, why do you think that I can help her?โ
โI just thought you might be able to from past experience.โ
I had a look at the girl with my โinsightโ cheat skill. Well, it was true that finding out what was going on was probably more important than completing the quest at this point.
โHer name is Azaz-yra. For some reason it is impossible to parse the sound in the middle of her name into writing. She is the daughter of Azaroth. In order to cure her ailment we would need to use the Black Lotus.โ
โSo our goal remains the same?โ
โPresumably, Well, not quite. We will need an extra black lotus flower for the girl, unless we are planning on forgoing the main quest.โ
