"Wait, what?! You're the first person to have a meeting with him today?! You're so lucky! Usually, the richest of the underworld comes first. I guess, not today!" Lisi Ana explained.

"I guess so... where does he live anyway?"

"He lives in the southern part of the underworld." Lisi Ana told us.

A map appeared in her hand as she reached out to the air. An old, strange map it is.


"So, tell me, why are you in the underworld again?"

She took her index finger and she puts it over my lips.

"Not now."

I pout. "What are you doing?"

"Finding the residence he lives in right now."

I gave a face of confusion. She didn't see it so I just looked at the scenery of the underworld.

It looks so hellish here.

It's because it is like hell anyway. This is hell, child.

But, this life is not fair at all.

I know that.

"Rose, how about we take the short cut? We can go here..." She drew a curvy line from a point to another. "...To here."

"What do you say?" She asked me.

I just gave a nod.

"So, we are going to the labyrinth, ok?"

"Wait, that's a dangerous path to go to!"

"Don't worry, I know the paths already, so I consider it a short cut."

I raised a brow. "Are you sure? I don't completely trust you."

"You should trust me. I've been here quite long and I always get thrown into labyrinth s. They're different each time. I grew a bond with them, apparently."

"A bond? With non-living objects? Are you kidding me?"

"No. I'm making a hyperbole. I'm just exaggerating, it's obvious. I just know the way between paths in labyrinths."

"So, how do we get in?"

"No one is available there today, so we can just come in. You need a string though. Do you have one?"

"No."

"Well, I have one so I can lead you when you are behind. Besides, more exercise."

"Yep. Ok." I replied unamused.

I have a new friend named Lisi Ana. She knows the underworld more than me, yet she reincarnated just like me.

She's talkative and I guess she likes to plan. Lastly, I don't really trust her since she doesn't look as trusting.

"Rose, so should we go?"

I thought we left a person.. Luisa! Lady Victoria, Luisa!

She's on her way there.

Are you using telepathy?

Yes. I guided her here. She seems to understand 'right', 'left', and 'forward' no matter how fast I say it. She's pretty amazing!

Or.. she got used to you doing that.

We haven't done this in a long time.

But still-

No.

"Let's go."

"Ok, come on." I lured Lady Victoria to follow us.

And off we went.
