-Meanwhile with the Chosen Undead & Co-
"So…" The Chosen Undead said.
They were in one of Shirokuto's big libraries. Shirokuto herself was sitting at her desk facing them.
"What did you want to talk about?" The Bearer of the Curse asked.
"You three fit the criteria needed to break the curse of birth," Shirokuto said.
"What do you mean," the Ashen One asked.
"You must perform specific tasks across the world. Including lighting up all bonfires," Shirokuto said.
"Oh, okay…." The Chosen Undead said.
"Nothing we haven't done before," the Ashen One said boastfully.
"Well then, how shall we proceed?" The Bearer of the Curse said.
"You should start where your first non-bonfire tasks start. The desert," Shirokuto said.
"You know, I am curious about the kingdoms of the desert. Can you explain them to us?" The Ashen One asked.
Shirokuto smiled and said: "Sure I will tell you all about them."
She conjured up some chairs for them to sit in. They sat down.
"So you guys are going somewhere~?" Kuroferuru asked as she showed up, interrupting them.
"They are the ones we needed to break the curse," Shirokuto said.
"Oh. And does that mean that the three idiots are-"
"Yes," Shirokuto said before Kuroferuru can finish her sentence.
"So, what do we need to do, anyway?" The Chosen Undead asked as he is rather curious.
"You will need to light bonfires, as I said. But you will also need to find and deliver treasures," Shirokuto answered.
"What type of treasures?" The Chosen Undead asked.
"Runya? You have it, right?" Shirokuto asked.
Runya Runya then showed herself with a book.
"I do," Runya said as she handed over the book to the Chosen Undead.
"What is this?" The Chosen Undead asked.
"What you must find for all of you to succeed…" Shirokuto said.
"What do we do exactly?" The Ashen One asked.
Runya Runya handed them a map.
"All the treasures are marked on the map," Shirokuto said. "So go ahead and find them…I will offer you a shortcut. To get to your destination more quickly…"
A portal opened in front of them.
"Well okay," the Ashen One said. "But what about the kingdoms?"
"I'll tell you when we arrive. Don't worry, we will have time to talk," Shirokuto said as she stepped in.
"Off we go," the Bearer of the Curse said as they entered the portal.
After the portal closed, Kuroferuru and Runya Runya were left alone.
"Now then, time to meet my Big Brothers again~," Kuroferuru said as she left.
"Don't forget that you must ensure they do what they're meant to do," Runya said to Kuroferuru as she left.
"That's exactly why I'm meeting them!" The Black Goat said gleefully.

-Meanwhile…-
The idiots are looking for clues on why the camp was destroyed.
"So everybody's dead?" Bob said as he was looking at the corpses.
"But who would do such an evil deed?" Clark asked.
"Seath?" Dylan suggested with a shrug.
"It makes all sense now!" Clark said in realization.
"Seath followed us!" Dylan said in dread.
"This is bad!" Bob said in terror.
They were panicking.
"But what if he's not alone?" Bob supposed in utter dread.
"Ooooooohhhh shiiiiiittttt!" Dylan said in absolute horror.
They were all in panic mode as they waved their hands in the air like the idiots they are.
"Where could Seath and his gang have gone?!" Dylan wondered in a panic.
Then Kuroferuru showed up and said: "The culprits are going to the desert, Big Brothers~!"
"Oh fuuuuucccckkkkk!" Bob said as he and the two other idiots ran in the desert's direction both to avoid the Baphomet and of course find the culprits who killed their Allies.
"Have fuuuuuuuun, Big Brothers~!" Kuroferjru said as she watched them run away.
A/N: This ain't a huge chapter and this only serves as a breather from what happened in the last chapter with that raid on the camp. Besides this also serves to show why the Chosen Undead and co are even present.
