"Actually... We are currently having our punishment for our misdeeds in the past. Master Gabriel send us here as a long-term punishment." said one of the angels.
"So... The punishment content included these clones and the air contamination?" Sky asked.
"Yes. The contamination in the air does not only caused the shortage of food, but it is also quite harmful to pure blood angels and human body." said the angel.
"Does this mean that the Archangel know about this place of all these disturbing things?" Sky asked again.
"Well, Master wasn't aware of it at the beginning but found out later. However, he doesn't seem to be having any problems with it." said the angel.
"I see... Can you do anything about his condition?" said Sky to Hoshe.
"Well, I indeed have some medicine to soothe the effect of this contamination, but the amount is quite limited as I don't know the ingredients for it, only my brother knows... Yes. I'm useless." said Hoshe.
"Can you give it to them? As I know that you are immune to this contamination like your brother." said Sky.
"I could, but are you certain about it?" Hoshe asked.
Sky hesitated for a while and nodded.
"I see." said Hoshe while handed a small bottle of capsule medicine to the angel, the angel is a bit surprised by that move of Hoshe.
"Why did you help us?" the angel asked. Hoshe shrugged.
"Ask my superior, he is the one that gives me the order. Anyway, there are only ten capsules in here, which means one for each person or depends on how you going to distribute it." said Hoshe.
"Thank you..." said the angel as he took the bottle of capsules.
"Anyway, as I said, we didn't mean to harm anyone here, now we had got the answer we want, we shall take our leave, but if possible we will come back or at least send someone here to check on you guys from time to time, so stay cautious." said Sky before leading the group leaving that conference room, the angels stared at them with confused eyes...

As they walked back to their landing point, where Seiryu the blue dragon still waiting outside the boundary of the town, Sky collapsed and kneeled to the ground.
"Master Vlansky!" Jason shouted and rushed to Sky along with the others.
"Tsk... I knew this is going to happen." said Hoshe as he examined Sky's condition.
"What do you mean by that? What happened to Master Vlansky?" Jason asked.
"The effect of the contamination of air. You are a deity while Mr. Junior is a hybrid, so both of you are not affected, but Sky is actually a human before he became an Immortal." said Hoshe.
"Don't worry... I'm alright." said Sky, a bit weak, while trying hard to stand up.
"No, you are not, if you didn't get any proper treatment, your condition would get worse." said Hoshe while helping Sky to stand up.
"What should we do now? Should we return to the town and get back those medicines?" Jason asked.
"No we can't, if we return to that contaminated place, his condition will get worse even faster. Moreover... It is not quite alright to get back something you already give to someone. And those medicines are really just for soothing instead of curing." said Hoshe.
"I think we should get back to the secret base, I believe Dr. Ben will know what to do." said Junior which caused Hoshe to feel very awkward...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And without any warning, let's switch our attention to Quill Town again. Haha.
Maria and Dominic are still reading letters from all over the places, suddenly, Dominic found a rather weird letter from the said guardian that was sent by Dominic to the town where Marco is located at. The guardian stated in the letter that he is not in the town at this moment for an official matter.
"Uncle Dominic, this guardian is the guardian that Marco-chan mentioned in her letter, right?" Maria asked.
"Yes." said Dominic in a heavy mood.
"Ah... Maybe I really should go there and check on Marco-chan and the others." said Maria.
Dominic stared at him, rather thoughtful...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The other town, Marco and the Shadow Punishers are being tied up with metal chains, they are surrounded by men in hood that lead by an angel in a tuxedo.
"You are not the guardian sent by His Grace! Who are you?" Marco shouted.
"Well, you don't need to know, so with Dominic. Now you shall burn to ash along with these secrets you had discovered here and not yet reported to Dominic." said the angel as he ticked his fingers and set the whole town on fire...
Maria and Suzaku reached that place thirty minutes later only to found out the whole town burned down to ashes.
"Damn it! Are we too late? Where's Marco?" said Maria, very anxious.
"Maria-sama, I saw a person behind that boulder." said Suzaku while pointing at a direction, Maria rushed to that place and found that person, it's Marco, she is still breathing but her whole body is badly burned and charred...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Secret base, Seito, and the others are having a break for their training while waiting for Bob to prepare some food. They are having a small chat with Ben.
"Dr. Ben, there is a thing I don't understand, if Bob really did that horrible thing to Junior then why is Bob here, and why Junior still follow Sky and the other for their traveling and missions? Aren't it's a bit pointless now for him?" Seito asked.
"Good question. Junior had given Sky a quest to find the real culprits behind his mother's suffer and let him finish them off with his own hands. And the reward is... As you can see..." said Ben while pointing at the kitchen.
"He uses Bob as the quest reward?" Seito found it's a bit hard to believe.
"Mhm."
Suddenly, they receive a notification about a blue dragon flying towards the Secret base from the base security system.
"Huh? Is that Seiryu? They came back faster than expected." said Seito.
"Tsk... Why do I have a bad feeling about this?" said Ben while adjusting his glasses...

*Something out of the story
Sky: "Dear readers."
Chris: "Hmm?"
Sky: "This chapter is meant to be released for webnovel.com."
Chris: "Oh! This matter. Yes, if you're reading this chapter on another platform than webnovel.com, know that it's an illegal copy diffused without the Writer's authorization."
Sky: "As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer."
Chris: "Mhm... There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup... But not recommended."
Sky: "Ah... Haha. Yes, as Chris said."
Chris: "But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.
Sky : "By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it's cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing."
