And the trial posed by this unnamed Judge was to have the heroes tell a joke that could make him laugh.
This trial was truly unprecedented and beyond the heroes' imaginations. When these great souls were still in the Mortal World, they were most praised for their bravery, wisdom, and courage, not their ability to tell jokes.
The other Netherworld Judges could not help but marvel at such a tricky question; they had never thought of such a conundrum.
On the other side, upon learning about this, the Queen of the Netherworld, Esroa, felt a sense of loss.
"How could there be such a thorny question?"
Esroa complained to her husband,
"Those heroes have no way to deal with it; they're not good at these things."
As a Divine passionate about studying souls, Esroa naturally hoped that Baird and his companions would successfully complete the trial and be banished from the Netherworld so that the Great Angel's objective might be achieved, and she could share in the knowledge about souls.
