《{I see... the maids are both oni and Rem is aware of our miasma.}》 Erebus summarised.
{Yes and if you're wondering they are full-blooded oni, I checked.} I added.
《{Then it's a good thing I installed Edict of Binding into many of the Bounded Fields.}》 Erebus said as I neared our room.
When I opened the door to our room I quickly noticed a suitcase laing on the desk.
"Motion, flow." I narrow onto it, a rift open up beside us and I quickly pulled out Raijin, a high-quality whip short-sword that can conjure and channel thunderbolts, while I stealthy entered the Hira-Seigan stance. We are in a magus house, their workshop and I have no idea what can happen if I get close to or even open that suitcase. Knowing our luck, it will be something along the lines of three dead apostles or chimeras.
However after taking a closer look at the suitcase, all that worry were instantly replaced with exasperation and annoyance. Why? The suitcase had a certain symbol heavily associated with a certain magician. I put away Raijin and approached the suitcase with some hesitation.
《{What is the ancient fossil up to now?}》 Erebus spoke with frustration.
I carefully open the suitcase and was confused by the content inside it.
In it, was two items. One was a letter, with my and Erebus's names written on it with Zelretch's handwriting. The second item was a colorless jewel key.
"A jewel... key?" I said out loud in confusion.
《{Read the letter and we might find out.}》
I picked up the letter, opened it and started reading it's content. What we found out was not only a great source of information but also the source of our foul mood for the rest of the day.

(Beatrice's pov)
'Something has changed I suppose.' Betty thought to herself, while reading a book in her mother's library.
Betty could feel it, there was something happening in the mansion and Betty didn't like it. Of course she was already aware of who was causing this change.
'To think that one of the newest witch factor holders is in the former home of one of their predecessor.'
And it is a warlock. Besides the Devil Of Melancholy there aren't any records of a previous Warlock of Sin from before the great calamity. If there was then the knowledge would have existed inside the library... mother wouldn't let such knowledge escape her grasp.
Betty rose from her chair and went to a bookcase and started to climb a stepladder.
'Speaking of sin, which one is he?' She thought, while putting the book back in place.
While she hadn't met all of the previous witch factor holders, she had met one of them or at least heard of them from her mother.
Images of a light-pink haired and red eyed girl with a green scarf, a crybaby woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, and a white hair, black eyed women flashed through her mind.
