Brass Dragon finished scouring and returned to the castle with the spoils of war. It heard that the Efreeti, due to a twisted wish from the Praying Skill, was now trapped in an oil lamp and it took several minutes to confirm this was not a joke.
"This Efreeti, I don't know whether to call him unlucky or stupid... Calling him stupid, sometimes he seems quite cunning though."
Brass Dragon had already transformed into human form, preferring the image of a jovial human in his thirties. He continued, "We weren't originally targeting him. We just wanted to sell passes and deliberately let some rumors slip. He actually believed them and came to us..."
Brass Dragon stared at the oil lamp and complained, "He used the Praying Skill without properly phrasing his wish, and now, it's been twisted... Well, it doesn't seem twisted, but anyway, he's trapped now."
