The afternoon after Rey made a contract with Kulshedra, Tannin left the camp where Rey and the others were. Meanwhile Tiamat and Penemune remain there to continue to guard and watch Rey and the others.

And after finishing dinner, Penemune also asked permission to leave for a while to report and she was allowed.

While flying flapping her black wings, Penemune thought about the things that had happened during this week. And she felt that this was one of the most shocking periods of her life.

How it can't be? In this week, some unusual and unbelievable things happened. From Kulshedra being summoned by Rey, the emergence of Ophis, to Kulshedra's true identity and abilities. It would be strange if there wasn't anyone in this world who wasn't surprised by that. So of course Penemune really astonished by that.

After feeling far enough from the camp, Penemune landed on the edge of a lake.

Then, she used telecommunication magic to make a call. And no need to wait long, the call connects and a male voice can be heard.

'Penemune, what's up? Is there any problem?'

"Azazel...."

Right. The one Penemune contacted was Azazel. The Governor of the Grigori, fellow Fallen Angel Cadre like Penemune, and the person who ȧssigned Penemune to keep an eye on Rey and the others.

After that, Penemune started talking.

"I don't know if this could be considered a problem because nothing actually happened. But I'm afraid big trouble could arise if we're not careful."

Penemune seemed to frown slightly after saying that.

'Hm? What do you mean? What's the matter? Did something happen to them?'

Azazel sounded a little confused because of Penemune's somewhat contradictory statement.

'But what?'

Penemune hesitated to speak, but in the end she sighed and spoke.

"Hah~.... A week ago, Ophis appeared and observed us without us noticing."

With a more serious tone, Penemune immediately made one of her reports.

'Heh~.... So Ophis appeared.'

Azazel sounded impressed by Penemune's report.

Hearing that Azazel sounded as if what she had just reported was some interesting amusement, Penemune furrowed her brows slightly.

Meanwhile, Azazel was not heard speaking after that.

'"............"'

'Whhhhhaaaaattttttt!? Ophis appeared you said!? Why don't you report it sooner!?'

Azazel exclaimed in surprise after realizing that Penemune had just reported something very unusual.

Azazel was very surprised because he knows Ophis rarely shows herself. And if Ophis shows herself, then there is something that she is attracted to or related to. And the last news that Azazel knew about Ophis appeared was when she appeared to give to Rey. But even then, no eyewitnesses truly saw Ophis because Rey himself was unconscious at that time.

Hearing Azazel's surprise, Penemune sighed again.

"Hah~.... I told you, didn't I? We weren't aware of it at all. Even Lady Scathach didn't. And we were just know it today."

Penemune said while touching her forehead.

Then, the two of them fell silent for a moment again.

And not long after, Azazel's voice let out a sigh as if to give up.

'Hah~.... Then? Is that all or is there something else?'

'Little girl with long black hair?'

Azazel sounded somewhat wondering. He also fell silent for a moment and seemed to be thinking. Penemune is also silent and does not interrupt. Because the last information they have about Ophis's form is that she takes the form of an old man.

Not long after, Azazel spoke again.

'There is one thing I don't understand. How did you know Ophis appeared if you guys didn't notice? '

"That's another thing I want to report.... The one who noticed Ophis' arrival was a new figure summoned from another world by Rey Rofocale."

'What!? Again!?'

Azazel was once again surprised by the report from Penemune. And then he also sighed again as if to give up.

'Hah~.... Can't that kid just quiet for a moment. It was only a few months ago that he made a summons. Hah~.... Then, what kind of person was summoned this time?'

"That...."

Hearing Azazel's question, Penemune hesitated to speak again.

'Now what? Is there a problem again?'

"I don't know.... I don't know if this is a problem because it's still safe at the moment. But what is certain is that the person who was summoned this time could be a big problem."

Penemune seemed to frown after saying that.

Azazel sounded even more confused and wondered what kind of figure Rey was summoned this time.

Then, Penemune finally answered and told him who was the figure summoned by Rey this time.

"Her name is Kulshedra. Rey-kun called her because he wanted a weapon that can change shape as needed. And Kulshedra is a being called a Spirit Weapon in her home world. Spirit that can transform into a weapon."

'Heh~.... Spirit that can turn into a weapon? Interesting....'

Hearing the report about Kulshedra, Azazel this time truly sounded impressed and interested.

But then he spoke again and this time with a more serious tone.

'But surely that's not what to worry about, is it?'

Hearing Azazel's question, Penemune agreed.

"Yes. What I'm worried about is.... Kulshedra is a Dragon and Ouroboros from her original world. And in her home world, she is the incarnation of end-time calamities and and world destroyer. And she claims she already done 'her job' a few times once ago."

After that, the two of them fell silent again.

"'................'"

A few moments later....

'Ahahahaha! That's so funny, Penemune! .... Thank you! It was quite lightening after getting tense because of Ophis appearance.'

Azazel laughed and thought Penemune was joking with him!

And hearing Azazel's response like that, Penemune frowned.

"Azazel, do you think I will joke about the fate of the world?"

Penemune said in a slightly irritated and cold tone.

And Azazel finally realized that Penemune was not kidding.

'Oi, oi, oi, oi!!!! Isn't that bad!? Just one Ouroboros was troublesome enough for this world! And now another world version of Ouroboros has come to this world!? What the heck!?'

"That's what I'm worried about too."

Azazel sounded exclaimed in surprise and panicked a little. But then, he tried to compose himself. And after calming down, he spoke again.

'Hah~.... Then, what's the situation right now?'

Hearing Azazel's question, Penemune answered.

"Right now it's still safe and there are no problems. She made some sort of familiar contract with Rey-kun and became his weapon. Besides, Lady Kulshedra also said she had no intention of destroying this world because she was just an . So for now It's still safe. But if she feels offended by something, I'm afraid catastrophe will happen."

Hearing Penemune's explanation, Azazel was silent for a moment.

Then, Azazel spoke again.

'.... I understand. Send me a more detailed report on Ophis's appearance and about... Ehh... What's her name again?"

"Kulshedra."

'Yeah, that.'

Hearing Azazel's order, Penemune nodded slightly and accepted.

"I understand.... I'll send you a detailed report in an hour latest."

Then, Penemune remembered something.

"Azazel, Tannin asked you to report this to Mephisto Pheles as well."

'.... I understand.'

"All right. That's all."

'Yeah. Thanks.'
