Wait a second!

Right now, you're carrying

too many things with you.

Please come back after

using the Kafra Service

to store some of your items.

[Benkaistein]

Were you able to bring

my journal to Digotz and

Maku? I'm pretty sure it'd

remind them of all the good

times we had. I know they

sure can be stubborn...

Anyway, I really

appreciate all your

help. When I go back

home, I look forward to

seeing the two of them again.

Until then, I need to research,

finish my thesis and accomplish

my academic goals. Oh, please

take this pass which will let you

go back and forth between the

rich and poor areas as my thanks.

Anyway, I wish you

safety in your travels,

adventurer. When the three

of us get together, I'll be

sure to let you know~

Aw nuts, this is

taking much longer

than I had expected.

Now where did I put

that thing? Hmmmm...

Oh, is that it?

Did you find my

journal? Quick, let

me check. Yes, yes...

This is it! Thank you

for finding this for me!

Would you mind doing

a favor for me? It'd be

better if I talk to them

myself, but I'm too busy

working on this thesis...

Would you please give this

journal to Digotz and Maku?

I wrote in it when we were

really young, so it should

times we used to share.

Anyway, this should at

least help them realize

how stupid they've been

acting. Thanks in advance,

and please take care of

Maku and Digotz for me.

Perhaps it would

be best if you help

Benkaistein look for

he is searching for.

[Passionate Student]

Oh, you startled me!

Still, I'm aware that it's

hard to get my attention

once I immerse myself

in a book. So, how can

I help you, adventurer?

Oh, how are my friends

doing? Oh, what? They're

having a huge fight just

because one's rich and

the other one's poor?

That's pretty childish!

But then again, that's just

like them. *Sigh* I really want

to go back home and get those

two to make up, but I also need

to finish this thesis. Let's see... What can I possibly do from here?

Oh, I know what I can do!

Wait, but where did I put it?

Oh, how could I lose something

so important? Wait! Would you

please wait a second while

I look for something?

Let's see, now.

Wind Magic, Black Magic,

Porings, ah, there it is.

Monster race properties.

Hopefully this contains

the information I need...

Upon briefly glancing at

this student's belongings,

you notice that the name

''Benkaistein'' is printed

on them. This is the friend

mentioned by Maku and Digotz!

Excuse me...

Benkaistein?

...The world of humans

and the world of demons,

yes, yes... No, what I'm

looking for is a reference

to the heavens or Asgard.

Hmm, this here might help...

Hey...

Over here.

Benkaistein!

...Oh, now that's a very

interesting observation.

If I can incorporate that

into my thesis without too

much trouble, my standpoint

would look much more solid...

HEY YOU...!

BENKAISTEIN~!

Oh, good heavens!

C-can't you keep

your voice down?

I-I'm trying to study!

No, wait. Have you been

calling me all this time?

This student seems to

be dilligently conducting

intensive research on some

academic subject. For now,

it would be best to leave him

alone so that he can study.
