"This is a protective charm wear it at all times, make sure to never take if off until we successfully exorcise the spirt."
"Alright, but how will you do that?"

"They couldn't have just let you do that."
"They did, coincidentally the quest was already there so I just told them that I had to take it and they were really nice about it."
"I'm going with you." Irene surprised him with her demand.
"You can't, it's dangerous, you're an ordinary citizen."
"And so are you, you are not a Crestmaster yet."
Aldrich chuckled, "I may not be but I am not much weaker than one. I've hunted more than my fair share of grade zero level three monsters."
"But what if the same thing that happened to me happened to my parents?"
"Why do you say that?"
