>"Miss Konkapu, the half-ghost retainer went to leave Miss Kotohime at her home after she broke down on the way here, she is likely already waiting at the stairs leading to the entrance of the Netherworld, or else on her way there. As soon as we can leave here, my companions and i shall move there to dig Yoshika out."

>"I can give you some temporary relief, but in all likelihood you will just make things worse by going to fetch Yoshika, if she's buried like you said that she was," says the doctor.

So, shall we come with the others just to go there at the Netherworld ? Or we play it safe and stay to rest for futher recovery ?
