I had Ai change the chant for summoning her, since she isn’t an Apostle.
It took a while to co up with a chant I was satisfied with, before ultimately settling on Sinner’s Aide. I picked the word aide because it starts with Ai. Heh.
"So, done with your analysis?" I greeted her.
"."
"Huh. In hindsight, maybe we should’ve stopped her from doing that," Aria sighed in exasperation.
"Yeah, but I don’t really bla her. Honestly, it seed like a fitting way to cap off the day to too. None of us could have had any way of knowing what would happen," I pointed out with a wry smile.
"."
"Woah, does that an we can summon our own Spirits too?" Responded Aria with a gleam in her eyes.
"," She explained.
"Oh. Well, that’s disappointing," Aria sighed wistfully.
"."
"Okay, I definitely like the sound of that. Wait, does that an the others won’t be able to use Spiritual Magic?" I asked her.
"," Reasoned Ai thoughtfully.
"Hm, interesting...yeah, makes sense, I suppose," I nodded after mulling it over.
"So, to sum up what we need to do...first, we gotta find the others and regroup. After that, we’ll try out Spiritual Magic and see how it works, while we wait for Ai to analyze the Summoning Ritual Scroll and hope she’s able to create the reverse effect to send us ho. If that doesn’t work, we’ll have to head to the Demon nation and ask them to send us back," Remarked Aria.
"Yeah, sounds about right. This situation sucks, but at least we have a couple of leads on how to get back to our world. Let’s not get too far ahead ourselves, our priority right now is regrouping with the others. Hope they’re doing alright, wherever they each ended up," I responded with a concerned frown.

What the...? Where am I?
I sat up and looked around in bemusent, as I found myself in a large, grassy yard, with a massive mansion in the middle of the area.
The yard was closed in with a tall tal fence, with a neatly-trimd row of bushes along the fence.
Let’s see, Ciel launched an explosion into the air, and after that, cracks in space appeared, there was a creepy burst of energy, I felt my mind and senses getting overwheld, and then...the next thing I knew, I found myself in this place.
My ears perked up as I heard footsteps approaching, looking around frantically before scrambling towards a nearby tree and ducking behind .
I glanced out as I hid behind the trunk of the tree, spotting a woman walking around the building with a basket of clothes, approaching a clothesline and setting the basket down.
A maid?
More importantly, where the hell am I? This mansion, its architecture looks super outdated, and that woman’s outfit looks really old-fashioned too, did I get teleported sowhere?
Like, is this the mansion of so rich person who’s into historic architecture or sothing? Also, where are the others? I’m the only one here.
Wait, will I get arrested for trespassing?!
Okay, just calm down, let’s first find out where this is...
I tapped on my I-Watch to bring up the display, and-...huh? I’m not getting a signal...but that should be impossible, especially inside the Sanctuaries.
Hm? Wait...uh, where’s the do? I can see the sun, not to ntion clouds. They’re definitely real, this isn’t the simulated sky that’s displayed on the inside of the Sanctuary dos.
What the actual-...?
Suddenly, I jumped in alarm as a shattered sound rang out, before several broken bits of tal fell off from around my neck, hitting the ground.
Huh? What is this? Was it around my neck?
Oh, shit...that maid is staring this way.
She looks nervous...crap, she must think I’m a thief or sothing. What do I do?!
She then slowly backed away, before rushing towards the mansion, presumably to alert the other people inside.
Shit, shit, shit!
I need to get out of here, NOW!!!
