“Val Flare!”

“Dam Blas!”

Crash!

The peals of light Chairman Halciform and I unleashed broke through the ceiling far overhead, causing light to stream down on us from the room above, along with dust and bits of rock. We, along with Gourry, then began climbing up toward the light.

After I’d busted the chairman out of slime jail, we set about using the Sword of Light to destroy the barrier by taking out one of its founding pillars. Okay, so I accidentally cut down the pillar Gourry was standing on in the process, but give a girl a break, okay?

The three of us then swapped a little more info on the situation, smashed up the floor—well, the ceiling—and ascended with a Levitation spell. As we approached the ritual chamber above, we were greeted with incomprehensible wailing.

“By the way, Chairman Halciform, Daymia’s got two pretty powerful demons in his service, so be careful.”

“Oho... I see,” Chairman Halciform said... cheerily? What a weirdo.

Anyway, we rose up through the broken floor to find Daymia standing there, staring at us blankly.

“We’re back,” I said with a grin.

It would’ve been a super-cool entrance if I hadn’t had Gourry clinging to my waist.

“Grwawmwrah!” Daymia clamored nonsensically, falling backward onto his rear.

The three of us then touched down on an undamaged part of the floor.

“Ch-Ch-Chairman Halciform!”

“Greetings. How long has it been, Vice Chairman Daymia? Half a year?” Halciform asked, the same cheerful grin still on his face.

It was... honestly pretty scary. Daymia seemed to think so too, having gone white as a sheet.

“N-No... no... it wasn’t me! I didn’t do this!” he managed to squeal out.

You kinda gotta appreciate the balls it takes to look at a guy who just broke out of your own basement, and say, “Nuh-uh! It wasn’t me!”

“Oh, I see... Then who did do it, might I ask?” the grinning Halciform inquired.

Like I said: scary.

“T-Talim! Talim came! He flattered me! He made me do it! I always liked you, really! So... So please forgive me!”

Oh, come on, man! You’ve gotta do better than that!

“Ah, I see. I suppose I should have a talk with Talim, then.”

Huh? That took me a little by surprise. I glanced over at Halciform in confusion.

“Y-Yes...” Hope blossomed on Daymia’s face. “Yes, of course! Hail Atlas City’s great council chairman! Yes, oh yes! How worthy of that title you are!”

“Now, Mistress Lina, Master Gourry... shall we?” Chairman Halciform beckoned, turning on his heels and walking swiftly toward the exit (I assumed).

Gourry and I hurried after him.

“Are you sure you just want to... leave him there?” I asked, tossing a glance back at Daymia. He was crumpled on the floor, a smile flickering intermittently on and off his face.

“Positive,” the chairman replied casually. “He’s never exactly been a stirring conversationalist, but... his condition appears to have worsened while I was sealed away. I’ll speak with Duke Litocharn in a few days and hold a council meeting to deal with him. Oh, but in the meantime, kindly refrain from informing Talim that I’ve returned.”

“I don’t think that’ll be a problem.
