Synopsis

Birdie's new master tests their connection range and Birdie's sensory abilities, revealing his impressive powers. Birdie then recounts his past, including a former owner and a near-fatal encounter that led to him feigning muteness before meeting his current master. The group returns to the Heavenly Grand Archives, and the leader of the group announces her intention to leave for training, suggesting a power imbalance that was highlighted in this chapter through the testing.
