Chapter 338 - Chapter 338: A Hot Potato — Better to Throw It to the Abyss Order

"Sounds like a really good thing. So you're planning to use the [Watatsumi Omamori Ritual] to have Watatsumi Island lift the seal on Enkanomiya, making it convenient for you to slip in and obtain the ancient forbidden knowledge of Enkanomiya?"

The red furry little brother nodded.

"That's right. That ancient knowledge is a hot potato. Back then, Watatsumi Island's god Orobashi saw it and was destroyed because of it.

If the people of Watatsumi Island saw it, this Watatsumi Island might be finished. The only ones who can take on this knowledge are us from the Abyss Order."

Cid nodded.

To be honest, he actually felt that the red furry little brother's proposal was very appropriate.

Thinking about how that forbidden book Before Sun and Moon had the terrifying record of solo-killing the Archon Orobashi, and how Enkanomiya was right beneath Watatsumi Island — it would definitely be explored eventually.

Even if the Sangonomiya Clan and he personally issued a lockdown order, the all-pervasive Fatui and Treasure Hoarders would still find their way in…

As long as even one of them managed to bring out Before Sun and Moon, this time bomb…

It felt like he would have to go explore Enkanomiya himself. At the very least, he had to get rid of those phantoms…

Damn, that would be exhausting… I came here for a vacation…

"So what do you hope I'll do?"

The red furry little brother handed the book "The Watatsumi Omamori Ritual That Even Abyss Mages Can Understand" in his hands to Cid.

"Help me deliver this to Inazuma's Shura Anyakonsen-shou. I think he will definitely quickly lift Watatsumi Island's seal on Enkanomiya.

Once that happens, I'll slip in. If you're worried, little brother, you can follow beside me and watch me. But you can't bring the human next to you. Some information isn't something she can see."

Looking at the extremely serious red furry little brother, Cid fell silent.

Little Eula behind the red furry little brother also showed a strange expression.

"No, why is your expression so strange? I'm telling you, if I weren't worried about running into that Shura Anyakonsen-shou and getting chopped into eight pieces, I would have gone to find him personally, okay?

Human! This is an opportunity for you to make a contribution! That Shura Anyakonsen-shou is a big official in your human world too, right?!"

Listening to the red furry little brother's dissatisfied voice, in the end Cid still accepted the book from him.

"Alright. As the Shura Anyakonsen-shou, I thank the support from my Abyss red furry little brother. However, lifting the seal will still require some time. I have other things to take care of."

"Hehe, having someone in the court makes things easy to handle. It's normal for you to have things you need to busy yourself with. It's fine — just delivering the book to the Shura Anyakonsen-shou is enough. Go ahead and take care of your own business~"

The red furry little brother excitedly rubbed his hands.

He knew that Inazuma's Shura Anyakonsen-shou did not have a very good reputation within the Abyss Order.

He had heard from his colleagues in Inazuma that ever since that Shura Anyakonsen-shou who slaughtered Hilichurls like cutting grass took office, their days had been getting harder and harder.

One day an army would come to sweep the area, the next day a purple-haired woman would go around killing indiscriminately, and the day after that some strange demonic wind from who-knows-where would sweep everything away in one go…

Although he had planned to quietly deliver this book to that Hilichurl-slaughtering Shura Anyakonsen-shou guy,

why would he take the risk himself when he could safely enter Enkanomiya to check the information~

Wait, what did the human just say?

As the Shura Anyakonsen-shou?

The red furry little brother's hands, which had just been excitedly rubbing together, suddenly stiffened…

"Hillichurl? Human, what did you just say? As what?"

"Shura Anyakonsen-shou."

The red furry little brother instinctively knelt down.

"Hiss… Human, I didn't say anything offensive just now, did I?"
