Shugo was very scared of the creature that was with the girl.
Shugo doesn’t know much about this area, ak.

When Shugo woke up, Shugo found himself here. Shugo can’t remember anything else. All Shugo knows is that Shugo is a Shugo.
She was saying all sorts of confusing things... That everything here isn’t real, ak.

Behind the hill is a dilapidated building, Daeva should go there, akakak.
You’re still alive...!

I assumed you didn’t make it when you didn’t come back from your exploration tour.
Search object... You mean test subject No. 707?
Such a young girl... No, nothing...

We’re all exhausted and many are wounded.
There’s a Shugo here in the village, too.

Would you like to go and talk to him?

Let’s gather information from the local people first.
Have you heard the news yet? Our village has brought forth a new Daeva.

Great, isn’t it? But what was that young girl’s name again? I don’t remember...
Oh, you mean this Daeva? Of course I remember him. He was the first Daeva from our village, that’s why the expectations placed on him were so great...

But he disappeared before he could even take on an assignment, what bad luck...
What? Missing Daeva? I never said that.

The Daeva I’m talking about is so successful that he’s already on a fast-track to becoming a Brigade General. Argh, my head hurts...
Where is my beloved granddaughter? She wanted to become a Daeva and protect me and our village...

Where has she gone? Come back safe and sound.

I’m proud of you, even if you’re not a Daeva and can’t protect me...
So that girl was a new Daeva.
No, it’s not a problem... She’s our successor, so to speak.
Either way... As there are so many wounded, we’ll both have to take over the task as we’re uninjured.

I saw a Wayfinder on the way here... Please go and take a look.
(Even the Wayfinder is incomprehensible.)
Take this equipment before you start.

I’ve repaired it, so it shouldn’t cause any problems.
