[48 Hour Skip]
Seeing as Erebus had nothing to add on, Shichiro had walked out of the room first in hopes of being able to scout out the area before defeating the creature. Taking a trip down the stairs where they had come from, he still couldn't believe how dingy this area was compared to the rest of the church itself. It was almost as if they had shady dealings when church wasn't in session. Then again, what had just transpired could have been considered a shady del to most. Snuffing out news, silencing people and a secret mission revolving around taking out an abnormal abomination as well as finding the leak somewhere in the church's interior. Making it back to the chapel's podium, he figured it would be easier to search around for the church first in order to find out where the creatures might have escaped from. At the same time, it might give him a clue as to the creature's current whereabouts or paths it might have taken in order to get to and from its destinations. Even though he didn't like it, he had to travel back through the catacombs of the church in order to figure out how this thing was getting from place to place.
Letting out an irritated sigh, Shichiro began to walk towards where the trapdoor to the catacombs were. Crouching down, he places his hands on the trapdoor in order to pull it open, revealing the set of stairs he and Erebus had previously traversed through. Beginning his descent, Shichiro began to walk down the stairwell in what would normally be darkness to people. As usual, it took him a couple of minutes to reach the bottom of the stairwell like he did previously. There was the old, wooden door in front of him he had proceeded to go through with Erebus the first time around and proceeded to open it, peering inside of what could possibly be lying in wait. A few rows of corpses could be seen like last time, with yet another stairwell at the epicenter of the room, with a large sarcophagus pushed over to reveal an even deeper stairwell. Shrugging his shoulders, Shichiro let out a, 'Meh' sounding sigh as he walked further into the graveyard. Not knowing if Erebus tagged along behind him or not, he picked up on the sounds of whispering like the first time around in this area. As he continued to traverse further and further, the whispering had soon quickly become wailing of sorts, angry shouting and screaming.
At first it was off putting but later on, it just became mildly annoying as he continued to travel downward. The surroundings had also begun to change as they walked, no longer being a flat, dirt path but now a more rocky and cavernous like appearance had begun to take form. This wouldn't be a bad place to hang out if it wasn't for the stench of rot and the fact this was a graveyard, he thought to himself. Arriving at the little area, where he and Erebus dispatched the first creature, he could see a large tunnel leading up, the path tilting upwards. This path was not here previously and was now a cause for concern for Shichiro. Other than the rest of the area being mostly the same was the first time he came round to visit, the new larger tunnel was new. He had no choice now but to go and discover the whereabouts to where this tunnel might lead. Traversing the new tunnel, he managed to make it out of underground catacombs behind a large building. He didn't recognize it at first but after circling it, he noticed he was behind the Swineherd Pub. If so, he wouldn't need to look around too long.
Night had fallen and it was dark now, meaning he was trapped in the underground longer than he had anticipated. This wasn't a big deal as now all he had to do was camp in the area to wait for his mystery abomination to show itself so he could dispatch it like they did the first one. Not long after he set up, the creature had come from a certain direction with a fresh victim before it attempted to go back into the tunnel it came from to feed. Shichiro decided to spring into action with his most powerful spell in order to blitz the creature, causing it to drop its victim. Surprisingly enough, the victim was still alive but unconscious so he figured it was best to let the church deal with that one later. After bombarding the creature with attack after attack, it finally gave in and disappeared. With that, Shichiro had left to go report his findings and collect his earnings all in one sitting.
