I didn’t know how long I’d slept, but a sudden chill in the air woke me up, causing me to raise my head from my angel’s pillow. Glancing around, I noticed a silhouette standing right next to my bed and immediately used Purification Wave. A bright light illuminated the room, allowing me to instantly recognize who the intruder was: Dongahar.

“Whoa!” I exclaimed in surprise.

Riiight. I’d put the hermit coffin into my magic bag, but I’d forgotten that once whoever was in the coffin woke up, they’d be automatically ejected.

“Why are you so surprised? If any of us has any right to be shocked here, it’s me. I can’t believe I’m still alive,” Dongahar said, perfectly calm.

I’m sorry? Anyone would be surprised under the circumstances! I yelled inwardly, but I tried to compose myself to deal with the situation with a level head.

“Anyone would be surprised to see someone right next to their bed in the middle of the light, especially with the lights off,” I retorted.

Yeah, the whole level head thing? I failed. Perhaps it was because Dongahar had been my enemy only hours ago, but I was terrified, though it wasn’t the same kind of fear as what I’d felt when Trett had done his wake-up prank on me.

“It seems that I failed to die when I meant to,” Dongahar said, inspecting his body.

“Well, it would be a huge problem for me if you were dead. I’ll save you as many times as I need to until you’ve told us the whole truth,” I replied.

He huffed in annoyance. “How very reassuring. But it’s too bad for you. I am going to die soon, and there’s nothing you can do about it. I had to agree to a soul contract to perform the demon summoning. It’s too late for me to run away.”

A soul contract? Was that different from a regular contract?

“The demon you made a deal with has disappeared, so shouldn’t you be in the clear?” I asked.

“Soul contracts are carved into one’s soul. Once made, they can’t be removed.”

“If you knew all that, then why did you... I mean, I get it was for the Church, but why go to such extremes like demonification and summoning when your body is so weak?”

“So, you read my farewell letter. Well, then you should know that I did all of this because I knew I had no time left. Besides, I believed that by making Her Holiness pass her judgment on me, she would grow from the experience.”

I felt anger surge through my body at his words. What a selfish man. Did he think that as long as it was to “help the pope grow,” he could force her to bear such a heavy burden?

I didn’t say any of that, though. He’d made up his mind and carried out his plan. I, on the other hand, had brought trouble to the Church by accidentally showing weakness. My words wouldn’t reach him, no matter what I said.

I drew in a long breath and decided to ask him the questions that had been weighing on my mind instead.
