Staz asks Wolf to help him find the Book of Human Resurrection, but they have a competition first, where, if Staz loses, he would have to give up Fuyumi. Hoping to have a bowling match, Staz is surprised to find the competition will be a boxing match, which favors Wolf and his close-combat abilities. Staz and Wolf's fight is fairly even though, as Staz devises a plan where he saps Wolf's energy. However, Bell interrupts the fight, declaring it a draw, and reveals to them that she has the book. Staz and Wolf are unable to make sense of the book as it is encrypted. Staz heads to the Demon World Acropolis to seek an audience with his brother Braz, the author of the book, but is intercepted by his sister Liz, who imprisons him. In order to escape, Staz would have to beat some powerful zombie guards. When Fuyumi starts fading away in the Demon World, Wolf takes her to the scientist Franken Stein who reveals that she is no ordinary demon. |
