I feel that the Oyado team has learned the fastest during this period of time when it comes to rehearsing our dialogue. In less than half a minute, we had the content of our conversation well-designed and walked into the hotel.

"Hmm?"

As soon as we entered the door, I saw a person sitting on the sofa in the hotel lounge. We were somewhat familiar with this person because Yabber had hit him for talking too much.

At this hour, there was only one person sitting in the lounge reading, probably responsible for guarding.

"Isn't this the Miss Imperial Academy student we met today? What's the matter? Are you looking for our esteemed Yabber?"

"Yes, Fran called us here. She said this ghost brought very important information from the Abyss."

After saying that, we took out the crystal that trapped the ghost.

"Ghost!?"

The person's gaze immediately became serious upon hearing what I said. He quickly stood up from the sofa and walked towards us.

Taking the crystal and glancing at it, he looked back at us.

"So... what is that information?"

"It's about Fir."

"I see. No wonder Miss Fran... I will relay it immediately."

After finishing, he took the crystal and went upstairs. He was quite efficient, as less than a minute later, we heard hurried footsteps coming down the stairs.

"What did the ghost say?"

Yabber asked anxiously without stopping her footsteps.

When she stopped, I replied, "Fran said that this ghost came from the Abyss, and it seems that something unusual has happened in the Abyss. So, she found me and asked if I could ask the ghost what it knows."

"Wait, you?"

Yabber suddenly interrupted me and stared at me for a while.

"You... can you communicate with the dead?"

"Sort of..."

"I can't believe... it seems like anyone who gets involved with you guys is not an ordinary person."

This statement was obviously backwards. How can someone who has nothing to do with us be considered an extraordinary person?

Of course, I knew this was nonsense, so I remained silent.

"Alright, tell me. What information did this ghost bring about Fir?"

So, I repeated the words I had told Fran to Yabber. As Yabber listened, her face turned paler and paler, until she finally sighed helplessly.

"I can't believe it... I never thought that Fir would actually become an Undead Holy Angel. I never thought that after 666 years, this kind of miraculous event would happen again..."

"Yabber, this matter is extremely serious and extraordinary. I think we should go back to the Church and report it right away!" spoke a nearby saint.

"Yeah, if someone can become an Undead Holy Angel and go from the mortal realm to the Abyss, it means that a certain pathway has already been opened. Furthermore, the other party might take advantage of it and bring their power back to the mortal realm. At that time..."

"No!"

Yabber interrupted the person.

"Fir could never do such a thing... of course, if he is still Fir. According to the scriptures, when the human who turned into an Undead Holy Angel did so, their entire soul underwent a change... I wonder what Fir's situation is now."

Well, the worst scenario you can imagine, after all, I don't know who is controlling me now, in other words, the whole soul has undergone changes as you said.

Ah, it's really bad, maybe I can fight with myself, hehehe...

This is absolutely not the time to laugh!

Although I really want to flip the table right now, I still have to stay calm, after all, I am a civilized person.

"Ahem, in short, that's how it is, so..."

"Yabber, what are you planning to do, if you're planning to go to the Abyss, please take us with you!"

"Yeah, that guy Fir, definitely beat him up and bring him back!"

Oyado and Aliyah next to me quickly said.

Yes, this is the plot of our plan, after all, we are not members of the church, we can only forcefully join the other party in this way.

"But... it's not safe, you need to know, the Abyss is not a safe place."

"Is that so..."

Oyado lowered her voice and continued.

"Then we can only rely on Blanche and Princess Cher, find a way to reopen the passage to the Ais Empire and go in ourselves."

"What!"

Yabber was startled, her usually calm voice raised several decibels.

"Are you crazy! Do you know what will happen if you open that passage! And how would those two... no, with your relationship, they might even help you open it... damn it! Alright, don't act recklessly, I will explain your request to the Pope, and... don't tell me you're going too?"

As she spoke, she looked directly at me.

"If possible..."

"Ah, I knew you guys wouldn't sit still... Fran is amazing too, she actually found someone who can whisper with the dead like you, that's something that only appears in one out of tens of thousands of people... alright, you go back and rest first, we'll contact headquarters, and as for you, Filia, since you have the ability to whisper with the dead, consider joining the church, otherwise, it'll be dangerous if others find out about your ability. Of course, you can refuse, but then I don't know what those guys above will do."

"Well... I have to discuss it with my family."

"...Right, after all, you only have one sister... don't worry, there are no downsides to joining the church for you, and this way your sister will have a better life. Think about it, excuse me."

After saying that, she waved goodbye to a few saints and went upstairs.

"Oh, by the way, Oyado, Lanya is also in the capital of the Witte Empire right now, she said she has something to give you but couldn't find you, she wants you to go over."

Halfway through, Yabber suddenly turned around and said.

"Um... sorry, if I was a little too harsh just now, but after all, something like this happened, well, good night everyone."

After finishing speaking, this time she went straight upstairs.

When we heard the sound of the door upstairs closing, we looked at each other and sighed.

"Master, did I perform well just now?"

Oyado looked at me and asked.

"Yeah yeah, when you said you want to open the passage to the Ais Empire, Yabber's face turned pale in an instant... sigh, although I feel sorry for her, but now we don't have any other options, right?"

"I hope she doesn't mind. After all, she'll find out about your identity at that time, and then she'll understand why we need to say this, right?" Aliyah next to me said.

"I hope so. Well, now we can only wait for news. I'll need to explain to Lilith later. Ah, recently everything that has been happening is really testing her nerves, isn't it?"

"After all, no one can keep up with the way Lady Lilith jumps around."

"I actually think it's quite normal."

I laughed and said.

"Alright, since Lanya said she wants to see you, let's go and take a look before we go home. She said she has something for you, maybe it's some good equipment."

"Yeah, that makes sense. But... where is Lanya right now?"

"Isn't it simple?"

I took out the communication headset and switched it to the reserved channel, handing it to Oyado.

"I don't know Lanya in my current identity, so you go."

"Okay."

Oyado took the phone while saying.

"Hello..."

Just as she answered the call, before she could finish her greeting, the other end suddenly exclaimed.

"Hello! Is this Fir? You should know this channel, right, Fir?"

"No... I'm Oyado..."

Oyado seemed quite frightened by the other person's reaction, her voice becoming much softer.

"Oh, oh, it's Oyado, haha, I thought it was Fir, haha."

This guy still sounds as energetic as before... He really has unlimited energy.

"By the way, speaking of which, I have something to give you. Can you come to my shop? I'm at 122 East Commercial Street. We're open 23 hours a day. Hurry up and come."

"Okay... okay."

"I'll be waiting~"

After speaking, the other person hung up directly.

"Well, let's go."

I smiled.

"Let's warn her that staying up late is not good."
