"They're still the same as before, not a single change!"
In the church, the returning acolytes reported to the bishop.
"That Witcher, taking the cursed object that was just sealed."
"Don't worry about this, Her Highness the Holy Virgin will take care of him." The district bishop wearing a silver mask was very calm.
"The important thing is, is everything taken care of there?"
"Disposed of, documents, records, murals, all sorts of accounts revealing the transcendent, and gargoyles, all destroyed."
"Well, that'll do."
The Bishop intoned calmly with a negative hand, "As for the cursed object, it's better to have it taken by that scoundrel than to have it stray out into the world."
"Did he come back with you?"
"No..."
The acolyte pondered for a moment and speculated back, "He is, at the moment, presumably touring the mausoleum with the Osiris family's first lady."
...
"Is this the Graveyard of the Transcendents?"
The catacombs of the Golden Age aristocracy, which are still in the danger assessment phase and have not been officially opened to the public, have finally received a real visitor.
Luna looked around curiously, "There doesn't seem to be anything special~"
"Something special, we cleaned it up last night."
Eleazar, who was walking beside her, said quietly.
Those bright eyes then turned in curiosity and asked:
"What is it?"
"Moving statues, some expired transcendental material, and cursed items that induce depravity."
"Eh, sounds like fun..."
Eleazar glanced at her and slowly said: ''That moving statue, killed all the grave robbers, if it still had energy then, it might still be roaming around, and the neighboring villages would have suffered, old people, children, women, human life is treated equally in its eyes; and that storage of supernatural materials that failed have all been turned into poisonous materials, but any leakage would be a plague; as for the cursed item, it is an evil item disguised as a magical item, its ultimate goal is parasitism. , but wherever a bit of it leaks out it's a plague; as for the cursed thing, it's an evil thing disguised as a magical item, and its ultimate goal is parasitism, you wouldn't want to know what kind of monster it'll mutate into in the end..."
Pressing down on the head with an evasive gaze and slowly lifting his chin to meet the vain eyes, Eleazar said seriously, "These things, they're not funny!"
"I... I know..."
Looking at the tips of the noses that were almost next to each other, Luna, whose voice was faintly audible, only felt her face roll as if she had a fever and her vision was a little dizzy.
Eleazar let go of his hand at this and silently looked around at the slightly cracked walls and floor.
"At that time, the entire chamber was like an earthquake, and those five acolytes flew out more than ten meters away..."
"So... Are you hurt?" Luna asked in a small voice.
Eleazar turned, "It's a common accident for us."
He didn't say what the real result was, leaving behind a rather frightening speculation.
Luna froze, seeming to finally be in some awe of Transcendence.
"Well, is there anywhere else you'd like to see?"
"No more ....."
...
The two ended their practice sessions early.
At the Osiris family residence, the count and his wife looked strangely at their daughter who had suddenly returned.
"Honey, didn't you go to archaeology with your classmates?"
"Something came up and came back early."
Luna pursed her lips and took out a small book, following the list on it, gathering up the few antiques in the house and directing the servants to carry them out.
The very same transcendental items Eleazar had found on his last visit.
There were ancient things left behind by families, collectibles bought back at some unknown time, or gifts and thank-yous from others, all with some magical powers, some simply samples of the bodies of some kind of transcendental beings.
To her, who already knew the mystery, they were as dangerous as time bombs.
"Honey, that was your grandfather's favorite pipe."
Mrs. Sosia, who was sitting on her knees on the couch, watched curiously as her daughter carried her things around, almost thinking she was getting ready to leave home.
In the end, without a word of explanation, Luna took several of the family's valuable collections with her.
Eventually, the servant even came in to report that Missy had taken one of the statues from the courtyard as well and that the van was destined for the local church.
"Donate to the church?" Mrs. Sosia frowned prettily.
"What's wrong with the boy?"
The butler said silently, "It could be that the young lady's rebellious period has arrived..."
Mr. Earl, standing at the window, slowly lowered the curtains, his face thoughtful.
...
On the other side, Witcher is wrestling with the Virgin.
Qishi softly sends the Black Knight toppling out with a knee strike.
"You robbed the seal and you have the nerve to ask me for something?"
Eleazar looked up with a furrowed brow as he covered his chest, which had broken several ribs.
"Fine then, I'll trade you for the seal!"
"Ha, did you get your head caught in a door?"
Qishi let out a snort, then had the nun pull her chair over and sat down on her butt, crossing her white legs and propping up one arm to support her face.
"Village of Orillia, South County, pick up your silver sword and go do what you need to do."
Eleazar eyed her, "＜Sand of Time＞..."
Qishi looked absently at his nails, "Wait until you free that area."
Eleazar knew at once that she was ready to tease herself again.
Giving the other party a vicious look, he turned away with a face full of indifference.
"What? That's all you got?"
Qishi cocked his head.
The nun carefully guessed, "Your Highness, is he really angry this time?"
"He would have hated to eat me a long time ago."
Qishi waved his hand, letting the light materialize and closing the door to the room behind him.
"Because he's a Witcher, he'll willingly deal with the monster incident even without a reward, so the defiance isn't as strong this time."
"Well, next time, we'll have to get him to do something that's not rewarding so that his reaction is more interesting."
...
Rubbing his still somewhat sore chest, Eleazar walked out of the academy with a pensive face.
Then he bumped into Luna, who had been waiting for him, at the door.
"I gave all that stuff to the church!"
Eleazar looked back and silently asked, "Did they say anything?"
"It's strange, those priests didn't say anything, they just looked at me in a very strange way."
Luna followed up with, "How much more do I have to show before they'll agree to let me become a Transcendent?"
Eleazar shakes his head, "I don't know..."
In Celine, he knew all too well how painful it was to be an illegal transcendent, which was why he hadn't asked for the transcendent items that were of little use to him.
Donate it to the church and you might even get a magic potion from the Path of Radiance.
"So where are we going now, to continue studying the occult?"
Eleazar continued to shake his head, "I have a mission to make a trip to South County."
"Oh, well then..."
At the station, Luna, who had seen him off on his trip, stood on the platform and waved her hand with a smile on her face.
The smile on her face only slowly faded as she waited for the train to drift away and completely out of sight, dropping her face and clenching her hands into fists.
The girl who was already hell-bent on becoming a transcendent, Eleazar had never seen her wear interference lenses after that point.
