This chapter opens with a description of the battle that has been going on between the shadow elves' guild and the Valkyria guild. The shadow elves guild has lost, and the guild has also lost its president and vice-president. The narrator tells us that the news of this battle has been blocked by the player management association, so no one has heard about it. He then tells us how he is going to take Ching-ying to the central hospital to find out what is wrong with her. He tells her that she has a high fever, and that she needs to be taken to the hospital immediately. He also tells her how he has been mining for gold in the dungeons of the city, and now he has enough money to pay her rent and medical bills. He goes on to tell her that Ching-ing's doctor has a diagnosis for her: "demonic mana hormone syndrome" . This is a new type of illness that is caused by the presence of a new particle called "demonial mana" , which is invisible to the naked eye. It can cause fever, lethargy, black dots, and other symptoms of the illness. The doctor says that the conservative cure might not be effective because the body absorbs the demonic mana. The parent of Ching-ting tells the doctor that he still has a chance to cure her.
