Aiwass took the elevator from the top floor of the Lohar Society's headquarters and left, but he didn't leave the Lohar Society directly; instead, he went to the seventeenth floor.
That was the floor where Lawyer York Hermes's office was located.
He had been dead for a while, but the office had not been transferred by the Lohar Society immediately.
On one hand, this was because more than half of the Lohar Society's upper echelon was already behind bars, leaving the rest too scared to make any big moves; on the other hand, it was because the Supervisory Court had placed a Prohibition using Law Magic here.
Aiwass didn't hesitate to lift the Prohibition. The crow on his shoulder flew down on its own to peck the door lock. Thus, the door opened by itself, and they went straight in.
The long-unopened room was filled with the ancient scent of dust.
The surroundings were almost unchanged from the past.
