"Hahahaha, don't be so stiff. By the way, the meal is so good, may I bring some home to give it to the orphanage kid?" Dulio laughed and then he ate the meal in front of him again.

I sat in front of him and rested my head on my hand. "I don't mind. I will ask Kejoro to make more meals for you to take home."

"Ooh! Thank you for that. Also, I didn't think that it's still dawn in Japan, forgive me for the sudden visit."

Oh, right. Time differences. He could arrive in Japan by teleporting, that was why he didn't take account of the time difference.

It wasn't strange considering Dulio often went out for a job. He must've been visiting a lot of countries. Knowing the time difference was easy, but I thought he just didn't think about it.

"Don't mind that. You are here for that, right?" I asked Dulio.

He was done with his meal as I asked him and gulped down the remaining one in his mouth. He then licked his lips happily and answered.

"Yes, I am here for that. Do you want to go now? I was tasked by Michael-sama to accompany you, in case of something."

Accompany me? More like, spying on me. I knew that the True Longinus was important for the church. As proof, they sent Dulio, their strongest exorcist to accompany me.

Their intention was as clear as day, they wanted to make sure that I didn't get the True Longinus. Even though we were in alliance with each other, there must be someone who disapprove of the alliance.

However, I had no intention to let them take the True Longinus.

"Just tell me the location, I will check it myself." I narrowed my eyes as I said that.

Dulio didn't show any reaction, he just smiled and looked at me with his usual kind smile.

"I thought you would say that. Michael-sama had told me about you, after all. But well, let me tell you clearly, I will accompany you."

His tone was serious, and he looked at me with a steeled gaze. This was troublesome, I just wanted to protect the True Longinus user.

If the church got its hand on its user, they would certainly take him under their wing. That way, I wouldn't be able to protect the user.

Although the Holy Longinus user was strong, if the user was under the control of an organization, they would lose their freedom.

I couldn't let that thing happen. If the new wielder of Holy Longinus was from church since the beginning, I wouldn't mind if they took care of them.

However, if the new wielder was chosen from the normal human, that would be problematic. Something like Asia's incident could happen. Well, I didn't care about Asia in the first place, and I did know that she would be saved.

This time, I didn't have any clue.

'Let's confirm it first.'

"Then tell me about the new wielder of the Ture Longinus first. I will decide whether I will let you accompany me or not later."

"That's fair." Answered Dulio with a nod.

At least he was a reasonable guy.

He took an envelope from his pocket and handed it to me. I took it with my right hand and looked at the envelope.

It was sealed with red wax, talk about outdated. I opened the envelope and there was a photo of a young boy with black hair wearing a white shirt. His face looked like a Japanese, but his eyes were grey. He looked like 10 to 12 years old kid, even younger than Kunou.

His face was a bit familiar to me, but I didn't recognize the young boy in the photo.

Alongside the photo, there was a letter with the location of the young boy. It was written, 'Underworld' which surprised me.

"He's in the underworld?" I asked Dulio with a surprised tone.

"Eh? Really?" He asked back, surprised. He then touched his chin and muttered. "This can't do, I can't go to the underworld because of my position. What should I do?"

Ah, so he didn't know. His surprised expression was real, so he really didn't know the young boy's location.

I grinned at that. Because of his position as the current strongest exorcist, he couldn't move to the underworld freely. That would cause some problems in the relationship with the devils.

"See? Just leave the new user to me." I said to Dulio.

He was conflicted, he looked at me for a while before he hit his palm with his hand.

"Ah! Let's do this. I will ask someone else to accompany you."

As if that idea was brilliant, he had a big smile on his face. It irritated me, so I shut it down immediately.

"No thank you."

I stood up and then walked away. Dulio also stood up immediately, following me.

"Nee, don't be like that! I was tasked by Michael-sama, you know?" He spoke from behind, but I ignored him.

I felt a bit bad though, he was only here because Michael asked him. So I stopped on my track and looked over my shoulder.

I saw him smiling happily, maybe he was thinking that I would allow him to ask someone else to accompany me.

With a smile on my face, I turned around and patted Dulio's shoulder.

"I feel bad for you. You are here because of order right? And yet I asked you to return immediately."

"So you know about it! If you feel bad, can you wait for a while? I will ask another exorcist to accompany you." Dulio said with a smile on his face as he took out his phone.

I stopped him with my hand and shook my head.

"No no no, please don't. The exorcist that you call will have the same difficulty as you. So, here is my proposal" I grinned at Dulio and he was looking at me, expecting what I said next.

"What is it? I can't go to the underworld, you know? It will cause some trouble."

"I know. That's why, Tsura!" I called out to Tsura.

The door was slid open and Tsura was sitting in a Seiza in front of the door.

"Yes, Riku-sama?" She asked.

"Ask Kejoro to prepare a meal for our guest again. Also, a lot of sweets for the souvenir to be given to the guest." I ordered.

"Certainly, I will ask Kejoro about that." The door was closed again, and I heard Tsura walk away from here.

Dulio was confused, so I patted his shoulder once again.

"Just enjoy the meal, and I will let you see the boy later. Okay?" I used Meikyo Shisui after I said that and disappear from Dulio's sight.

"Eh?" I heard his surprised sound, but I ignored him.

Underworld, huh? It seems that I will visit that place more often in the future.
