Chapter 569.2
“It’s not so easy to find them if the place was made so elaborately. Perhaps we have to follow a certain pattern to reach deeper areas of this space.” (Layla)
“...I wonder how the two of them got there.” (Yuki)
“Shii can’t. But Sakuya probably could.” (Lefi)
“...That might indeed be the case.” (Yuki)
Lefi’s words convinced me.
Sakuya possessed a power that even we didn’t understand. He may have been drawn to this mysterious space.
The Spirit King had told us that Sakuya would live a life of turbulence. Maybe we parents have to assume that he was capable of something like this at the very least.
“Whatever the case may be, we have to gather information on our current location first. We won’t be able to find them if we move around in the dark.” (Layla)
“I agree... what do you think, Lefi?” (Yuki)
“I have no objection. I just want to add that since we still can’t detect them properly, we need to continue exploring this place until we reach the area that Shii described as a garden.” (Lefi)
We were supposed to be here for sightseeing, not exploring the wonders...

[Is that your master just now?] (Mukuro)
“Yes! And, Sakuya’s dad! He’s looking for Shii and Sakuya.” (Shii)
Shii understood only the kinship part.
The skeleton beast appeared to giggle for a moment, but then happily returned to explaining about the garden.
It was more of a boasting than explaining though, as if the skeleton beast was showing off his treasure.
Although its tone was solemn, the fluttering and swaying bone tail of the creature clearly expressed its emotions.
Shii, too, was happy seeing someone telling her about their treasures, so she listened to the skeleton beast’s explanation with a smile.
[I’m sorry, I’m just talking about something I’m proud of.] (Mukuro)
“No! I can feel Mukuro’s uncle’s love for this place, it’s so nice!” (Shii)
[Is, is that so, but, just from my voice?] (Mukuro)
“Everyone behaves like that when they talk about something they love!” (Shii)
The creature was a little embarrassed by Shii’s innocent, sincere attitude, and coughed one more time to cover it up.
[Finally, there’s something I want to show you.] (Mukuro)
Then, the creature took them to a shrine.
