Upon arriving at the Chalk Castle, Mira says she has a secret errand and goes deeper by herself. In fact, something is about to reach its limit ...!? And Mira touches the secret of Soul Howl among the kings ... but a big threat is approaching.

Summary
Mira asks the adventurers if they can take Tact back with them, as there is something she must do on the sixth level. Asbal heard there was a castle there, but no one found anything else and since is dangerous, the adventurers decide to go with Mira as it may be fun.

As they head down to the sixth level, Emera wonders who Howard is. Mira states its an old acquaintance of her, but their bond wasn't strong. As Emera describes him, Mira realizes that Emera knows Howard and Emera explains that once he splashes holy water on her. Mira comments that he has been doing it to everyone he meets. Emera wonders if Mira wanted to meet him due to the recent appearance of the Lesser Demon. Mira doesn't deny it and Frikka explains that in the past week at least three Lesser Demons has been sighted in three kingdoms.

They reach the castle and enter, however it appears empty. Mira then activates a hidden door which makes the adventurers realize why everyone thought it was empty. Mira wishes to continue alone and tells them to wait there until she is done with her secret errand. Mira then rushes and heads to the toilet, barely holding it anymore. She then heads to towards the top floor, where he locates a small life sign. Entering the throne room, she sees many maidens, who appears to be already dead. Reaching the throne, she realizes the woman on it is barely alive. However she doesn't see Soul Howl anywhere, but see a door behind the thrones that leads to his research laboratory. She finds a wardrobe and decides to change clothes, but clothes are too big for her and gives up on changing clothes. As she looks at his documents, she finds information about the Holy Grail of Heavenly Light, capable of healing any wound and can even cure death. Mira then runs back to the woman on the throne and sees she has a Demon's Blessing on her back. Mira realizes that Soul Howl wanted to break the curse and had stopped time with necromancy to buy time until he finds the Holy Grail. Mira then returns to the adventurers, and finds Emera and Frikka scared as they found another room full of dead maids.

Exiting the castle, a demon appears. Mira asks the adventurers if they can fight him and Asbal doesn't believe so, but state they are ready to sacrifice themselves. Mira then decides to fight him alone and tells them to stand back. Mira then engages the demon and summons a Dark Knight, who blocks the demon attack. Impressed by that, the demon decides to introduce himself as Wolf bane, Soul Taker of Valnares. Mira introduces herself as a summoner. Wolf Bane then states that if he defeats the Dark Knight, then she is done for and attacks him and pushes him to the side. He then attacks Mira, thinking she is defenceless, but Mira dodge and dodges and uses Immortal Arts to push the demon away. The demon keeps attacking Mira, but she easily dodges his attacks. Mira decides to get serious and activates Immortal Hidden Arts True Sight and starts beating on the demon. However, the demon is able to take it on, causing Mira to get even more serious and activates Forbidden Immortal Arts Unsealed Demon's Eye, causing her right eye to shine and paralyze the demon. The Dark Knight then comes back and kills the demon.

The adventurers are happy that Mira won, but wonder how can a Rank C adventurer be that strong. Having no choice, Mira explains that she is the pupil of the Wise Man, Danblf. The adventurers are surprised, but they believe her as the way she fights feels the same of the stories they heard about Danblf. Returning to town, they see the town is being attacked by monsters.
