"I happen to think I'm rather well mannered," Nemo commented while gazing at the crystal coffins as he walked by. he didn't seem to have much of a reaction to the jest, especially with Felix evening the score.

Nemo turned away and thought for a moment. "But maybe you're right Raiya," He started, his voice sounding a bit more sardonic. "If you're gonna be my plus-one we can't be roaming around in public like a couple of savages. Perhaps we should have etiquette lessons as well." Nemo suggested, using their deal to his advantage.

Nemo noticed the call on his manadial. He held up his arm and looked at the all gold dress watch with a white dial. As the clear diamond like crystal below the twelve o'clock marker flashed he pushed in the crown. After a small click was heard the flash stopped and he was now in the voice channel. The watch was sync'd to his ornate silver bell earring, which then telepathically transmitted the sound straight to his ear.

Nemo followed Raiya down into the catacombs. The manacrystal walls had him almost salivating, to a person with his abilities they looked more like they were made out of rock-candy.

Nemo pressed his pointed finger onto the crystal above the dial on his watch, letting him speak on the channel. "I wonder if there is going to be any souvenirs down here," he whispered.

After hearing the sound of the runic slab crumble Nemo brought himself to his feet. "Seems it's time to begin," he commented to Jessie as he used a basic spell to wipe his clothes clean of any debris from the ground. Nemo walked over to the area where the hole was located. "Good work you two," he congratulated, peering into the hole with his hands in his pockets. "Hhmmmnn..." Nemo voiced as he thought about what lied beyond the veil of darkness, only able to see stairs so far.

"Ladies first," Nemo said as he leaned back up and looked over to Raiya.

"All the summoning knowledge in the world isn't worth meeting that monster. And I'm not exaggerating, I'm pretty sure they are a cannibal; if they even are human." Nemo explained. "Though if it pleases you, I might be able to summon their familiar myself sometime. Might come in handy, but also might backfire as well. It doesn't really like listening to me for obvious reasons."

Nemo figured Jessie's wish might come true. Now that Nemo was out of prison, the previous owner of the contract might come back for it once more.

"One of the strongest opponents I've ever faced is a ten partner summoner... I say ten because I'm in possession of their missing eleventh partner contract. It's what I got for winning the fight," Nemo explained.
"It's not of much use to me as a spell, but it's was their main summon, so they'd do just about anything to get it back. Which is what I keep it for, leverage."
"Unpleasant person to be around, and unpleasant to fight as well." Nemo then sat up and ran his right hand down his left arm. "Ripped my left arm clean off like a chicken wing. Kinda looked like a chicken wing too with all the cartilage showing as I re-attached it afterwards." Nemo finished.

Nemo glanced over to Jessie as she sat down and spawned her companion. He put his hands under his head for cushion as he made himself comfortable.
"I'm gonna go off on a limb and say you're a summoner. Had a few run ins with them in the past. They're a headache, all these little things to keep track of: Imp from the rafters, Chimera from the behind, Dragon from the sky. What's next? Humpty Dumpty with a glaive? Can't just settle on some ruin spell, no, no, that would be too easy." Nemo rambled on.

Now.. What if someone just smashes it.

@Zelosse

I was actually gonna do that.

Nemo crossed his arms as Artos walked away. "You think they have fun where he comes from?" He commented before sauntering over to a open patch of grass. "I'll be over here if anybody needs me... Until somebody opens the door or my organs get melted or whatever." Nemo added as he uncrossed his arms and then abruptly jumped up. His body turned horizontal and he fell flat on his back with a considerable thud. It probably hurt, but Nemo seemed unfazed after the bizarre action.

"Any of you ever make a grass angel before?" He asked in a deadpan tone as he looked straight up to the sky.

"Looks like we made it," Nemo said, eyeing his manadial when they arrived. He was glad someone could take them all to their destination. Nemo gave a sigh of relief, "Indeed, back to business," he commented back to Yuno and walked towards the two members that had already arrived, Raiya and Jessie.

Nemo glanced over to the closed seal slab before looking back. "Couldn't even manage the front door, huh?" He joked, in poor taste considering he couldn't even make it over there by himself. "Good thing we can live without those." Nemo added sarcastically in response to the effect on their organs if they mess up.

"Well, if nobody else wants to, I could sure give it a try. I'm sure it can't be any harder than a puzzle. And I love puzzles," Nemo finished as he observed the seal on the stone slab.

Nemo perked up from the railing after Yuno spoke. "Oh... I see." He commented as he walked over and into the circle, his tone had completely reverted to normal. "So she does have a long distance teleport spell, seems the Academia has been broadening their courses over the years. Feels pretty good to be wrong." Nemo pulled up his manadial and opened the holographic map. Checking the location of a few blips. "Judging by her location on the map, she's right outside our destination already. Ground level too." Nemo explained before letting his arm drop to the side and dispersing the map.
