Ben rushed out from the quarantine room and headed directly to the ice coffin where Mrs. White's body is located at, he opened the ice coffin and start searching for something.
"Dr. Ben, what are you trying to do with my mother's body? She is already dead." said Junior, trying to stop Ben.
"I remember seeing something that looks like an important clue she left about the real culprits, you need to let me find it." said Ben.
Junior nodded and start helping Ben to search for that clue he mentioned. Then they found some pale and not so obvious scar on her lower abdomen.
"That... Angel... M... E? Hmm? What is that supposed to mean?" Junior asked.
"I believe that's the clue she tried to write down before totally losing her soul." said Ben.
"M, E, could that be the angel's name?" said Sky.
"M, E... Mephist?" said Chris after a short thought.
"Ah! True! He is one of the silver winged angels. And he is now in the Afterworld... Which also known as Underworld and Bob gets that anti angel mineral from Underworld." said Sky.
"Ah... So now all the clues pointed at that fallen angel. Hmm... What a coincidence." said Chris.
"So, how high is the possibility that Mephist is the one we are looking for?" Sky asked.
"Actually I'm kind of doubt about it, since everything is just so smooth and perfect that I can't help thinking it might not be this easy." said Chris, rather troubled.
"But still, with all the clues we have, Mephist is the one with the highest possibility, or for the very least we can certain that he is related to the whole thing in some way." said Sky, trying to analyze the whole situation.
"Yes, I guess I will get someone to... Hmm? Hold on, I received a message from Byako." said Chris as he taking out his phone.
Chris read the message with an attached picture, haven't completely calmed down from the issues regarding Shiya, he once again stunned.
"Chris? What's wrong? What did Byako send you?" Sky asked, Chris did not answer his question and so Sky snatched his phone and view the message.
In the message, it says: "Master, I'm Bu, Byako-sama is very sick all the sudden, his right arm is badly rotten and same for a big area of his right chest. I'm scared, what should we do?"
Sky click open the attachment, it's a picture of Byako's badly rotten arm, some black liquid can be seen oozing out from the affected area. Seeing that, Sky is equally stunned, he stared at Chris and saw his lost and helpless eyes. Sky remembered about that dream he had the previous night.
"I know there are too many things that happened in this short time frame but I believe this is a situation where you need to go back to Null Dimension. Don't worry, we will be alright on our own." said Sky while patting Chris's shoulder.
Chris looks into Sky's eyes without saying anything, but Sky understands that he is in hesitation, and he understands so well the reason for his hesitation.
"If you worried about Ben and the lack of healer matter, I'll try to get Hoshe back to help us temporarily." said Sky.
"Yes, I believe my idiotic brother will understand this as an emergency situation." said Ben.
"Moreover, you might want to go to Afterworld to investigate that fallen angel, right?" said Sky, trying to reassure Chris even more.
Chris nodded.

Meanwhile, Quill Town, Dominic's room. Maria is viewing and researching the daily statistics report send from other towns with Dominic, they found some similar issues that they discovered in the previous report from another town.
"Tsk... This issue is worse than I thought... Seriously, what action should I take?" said Dominic.
"Uncle Dominic, I could help you to investigate these areas if you allow me to." said Maria.
"Nope, I can't let you do that, your demonic magic is not stable enough for that." said Dominic.
"Heh? When did you found out about that?" Maria asked, rather astonished.
"Since our first meet." said Dominic in a casual tone. "Eh?"
Maria is surprised by Dominic's answer, Dominic responds to him with a smile. Suddenly, Maria's phone rang, it's a video call from Sky.
"Ah! A video call from darling! Hello~ Darling~" Maria greeted Sky as he accepted the video call.
Dominic felt a bit awkward with that 'darling'.
"Hi, Maria... Hmm... What a nice and clean new look you have." said Sky.
"Right? Although I was planning to wear a nun outfit. So, any special reason for calling me?" Maria asked.
"Well... Yes. I was wondering, would you by any chance know any method to contact Hoshe? Since you met him not long ago." said Sky.
"Not really, but I do think that he is still in White's village. What's the matter? Do you need anything from him? Did you face any issues right now?" Maria asked.
"Uh-huh... We are indeed facing some issues right now, some rather serious issues." said Sky.
"Oh my! I knew I had sensed something weird yesterday, what happened?" Maria asked.
"Actually..." And so, Sky told Maria everything that happened in the unknown village, including Ben's condition and Byako's issue.
"Ah! That sounds really bad. You should have informed me earlier, how is Ben chan right now and is Chris chan really going back to Null Dimension? Will he be okay on his own?" Maria asked, really worried, and Dominic is concerned as well.
"Ben is alright, but still needs some time to fully recover, especially for the injury on his hand, which is why we need Hoshe. As for Chris... Uhm... He had already gone back to Null Dimension a few hours ago." said Sky.
"Heh?"...
