In this chapter, the dog explains that he has the ability to devour other peoples' magic, but he can't use his own magic to do so. He says that he's learned a lot, but there's still a lot of work to be done before he can use his magic to save someone's life. He's going to try his luck at this. He wants to use his power to transform into a beautiful woman. He doesn't know what to do with the secret scripture he found, so he'll just send it to her later. The reason to invite the dog is to let him deepen his understanding of the world. There will be lots of big shots in this world, he says. He knows little about the world, so it's good for him to learn more. He tells the dog to keep looking for the body, because he still has time to find it.
