Synopsis

A report from Grigor details the deployment of rankers around Gigyu's house, who are mysteriously dying if they approach too closely. It's revealed they're part of a magic circle powered by demonic energy, which is converted from mana using a potion. Gigyu's mana was hidden by a barrier while he was inside, preventing the circle from activating. Grigor is now preparing to attack the humans forming the circle to disrupt it, while giving Gigyu divine feathers to use.
