"With these theories along with the lack of geographical characteristic of the spot where we found the first statue, I successfully sieves out these three locations that indeed shared some similar characteristics that are perfect to trigger an imbalance of magic that eventually lead to the collapsing of the ground." said Sky, trying his best to explain why he marked down the other three locations. Chris and Junior nodded while looking impressed. As for the the two siblings, they are totally confused about everything Sky just said.
"Mhmm... As expected from you. However, this discovery of yours had pulled out another problems." said Chris. "Heh?" "Two of these three places you marked down are actually in the town and I believe you do realise that you are now a wanted person in the town, right?" said Chris.
"Ah... Right. I just beaten up one on their highest authorities. Maybe we can try this other spot first." said Sky with an awkward smile. "Alright then, after destroy that statue outside the town, we shall blast off the whole town directly." said Chris, who sounds rather evil while glimpsed at Lili. "Yeah, sounds like a good idea." said Sky as he nodded while glimpsed at Lili as well.
"By the way, Chris, are you the one that healed my arm? Seriously, your healing skill is almost on par with Mr. Shiya, it's such a waste that you are not fond in doing healing." said Sky out of the blues as he tried moving his left arm in all directions, and it seems to be healed perfectly. "Since I can't even heal myself, so it's pretty much meaningless." said Chris, who is obviously not very happy about Sky's compliment. "Well, if I am not mistaken, you have a really wide knowledge of proper medications as well, after all, you had been with Shiya..." "Shut up. I don't like what you are saying right now." Chris cut down Sky's words before he can even finish his sentence, and obviously, Chris is very upset with what Sky was trying to say. Realising that he had said something that is very wrong, Sky immediately apologize to Chris which get a cold leer from Chris...

Meanwhile, Secret Base. Ben is taking short break while having some black coffee with Jason at the lounge with Jason, Maria, Ai and Yuki are once again going out for a special carnival that been held in the town.
While having his coffee, Ben glimpsed at Ruby who had been hiding behind of Jason for more than fifteen minutes. He can't help but wondered why she behaved that way.
"Hmm... Was she originally this shy? Or did you teached her anything weird that caused her current behaviour?" Ben asked, obviously joking. "No, I didn't, I don't have the guts to do so." said Jason, who actually took Ben's joke seriously. "I see. Perhaps it's because you didn't teach her anything that her became such a shy person right now?" said Ben, continue to tease Jason, he found Jason's overly tensed reaction quite funny. "Ah... You are right, Dr. Ben. Why didn't I thought about that any sooner. I really should taught her something more meaningful instead of just some basic chores. I mean... Aside from basic chores, she literally can't do anything else, including taking care of herself." said Jason, who once again took Ben's jokes seriously. But this time, Ben no longer think Jason's respond as funny, but instead he frowned in disbelief.
"Are you serious about what you just said? Are you telling me that she can't even take care of herself? Including her own hygiene and daily life?" Ben asked, rather astonished. "Yes, I did said I washed her, right?" said Jason, rather blunt. Ben facepalmed and glared at Jason without saying anything. "But at least, she knows how to eat." Jason added.
"Ah... I guess I will be taking care of this girl with you, you are not a qualified caretaker." said Ben, a bit speechless. "Heh? I thought you are quite busy of your own work, do you actually have any extra time for this trivia matter?" Jason asked. "Don't worry, I have just got a new good helper." said Ben while glimpsed at Silvia who just walked out from the infirmary with a duster. "Ah... I see. Good for you, Dr. Ben. I wish I could have a helper like her, after all, my workload is kind of heavy." said Jason. "And yet, you choose not to teach that Ruby girl how to take care of herself. Just be honest, are you a pervert?" Ben asked. "No! Of course not! It's just..."
Seeing Jason frantically trying to explain himself, Ben can't help but smiled in satisfaction...

In the sinkhole.
Sky, Chris and Junior are exploring an abandoned area that looks like a torn down ancient city.
"Ah-ah... They totally omitted the restoration of this area huh? What a disgraceful sight we have here." Sky exclaimed. "Judging on how far this place was from the center of the sinkhole, it's not an unusual thing that they abandoned it, especially with their level of intelligence. Moreover, this place doesn't seem to be quite stable, or at least not as a living place." said Chris as he schemed through the place.
"Yeah... Tsk... It's not going to be an easy taken to look for a broken statue that hidden under all this dirts and debris." said Sky with a frown. "Yeah, I agree about that." said Chris...
