With this particular job, it seems that there’s an odd problem with one of the rare and valuable Gauntlets. You need to head to the treasure room first - first to Mikado Castle, then to the Treasure Room. Confirm that you are prepared, and more info will be divulged by the master samurai.

A powerful demon resides in it, interfering with its operation. The Gauntlet must be cleansed of such demons before an inexperienced novice - such as those in the Rite - peruse it. Of course, the demon within does not particularly want to leave its crib. None of the samurai so far have managed to forcibly remove him, either.

The Gauntlet is activated and a gladiator-like demon rises from within - Ares, named for the god of war.
