Chapter 312.2: Cursed of the Spirit People ②

Aaah, about that, huh. Fufu I don\'t have the Spirit Stone anymore, but I have something good. Let me show you. (Cry)

H-Haaa? S-Something good? What do you mean, desu? (Kruz)

Of course, it is something nice. And unlike that Cursed Spirit Stone, this one doesn\'t try to kill you.

I stand up, I beckon Kruz, who blinks at me, to come closer to Mimic-kun which I had left in a corner of the room. Kruz frowned after seeing Mimic-kun as I had imagined him to be, a perfect treasure chest.

A treasure chest Sure, it is something good? Maybe it is, but it doesn\'t matter now, desu! (Kruz)

Ahhh, I would like to put Kruz away, but she is too heavy to put awayyy. Can someone help meee. (Cry)

!? Yowaningen, what are you talking about all of sudden I-I\'m not heavy, de (Kruz)

Says Kruz. When an arm grew out of Mimic-kun, and in an instant, it drag Kruz and in an instant *bakkun

* eat her. Only a few seconds passed since the start. Eva, who had been quietly watching the exchange, freezes and rushes over in a panic.

Wh-What are you doing!? (Eva)

Actually, Mimic-kun seems to have an automatic storage function. Pretty nifty, don\'t you think? (Cry)

It would have been perfect if something larger than its treasure chest mouth could fit in, but well, I am not gonna ask for more. Even just the current functionality alone defies common sense. Kruz must have been surprised, riiight. So far, Mimic-kun\'s attack success rate is 100%.

It is really a horrifying story. Now if only you could freely get out from inside, it would have been perfect

We-We have to get her out quickly (Eva)

Aaah, you are right Ah!! (Cry)

!? Wh-What is it? Is something wrong? (Eva)

I thought I had forgotten something, but I was going to ask Tino to teach me how to use Car-kun, but I forgot. Seriously, if it is just potential, Car-kun is just as amazing as Mimic-kun No, that might be an exaggeration.

I touch Mimic-kun\'s lid to take Kruz out. But then, a chilling voice called out to me.

I have heard from Franz. Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka), it seems that you have obtained the Spirit Stone in question and handed it over to Wanderer (Horo). (Lapis)

Entering through the door that Kruz had left open were Lapis and the other Members of Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai

). Each of them had outstanding beauty, and their Leader, Lapis, always had the impression of being cold, but the coldness in her eyes now is incomparable to then. Lapis and the others must have come back pronto from the trip just like Kruz, but their clothes and hair are not disheveled.

Maybe Kruz is a Unfortunate girl.

But now is not the time to say that. Not only Lapis, but the other Members\' eyes are also icy. I am also indebted to Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai) in many ways. It would be bad to spoil our good relationship because of a mere misunderstanding.

I approach Lapis while rubbing my hands.

N-No, well, it just so happens when Lapis and you girls weren\'t there (Cry)

Hmph I won\'t ask you where you got it. What you do with the spirit stone is also up to youBut to drive us all the way out of the Imperial Capital to do this, Divine Strategy, huhYou have done something very interesting. (Lapis)

You left the Imperial Capital on your own, didn\'t you? (Cry)

In the first place, that Spirit Stone isn\'t something I found And the fact that Lapis and the others weren\'t there was a pain for me too. If Starlight (Hoshi no Seirai) had remained in the Imperial Capital, the commotion might have settled down at the beginning and Luke wouldn\'t have turned to stone either

In response to my correct argument, Lapis glared at me. It seems that the problem has deeper roots than I thought. I *panpan* brush my hands and look at Lapis with a badass smile on my face.

It can\'t be helped, shall I show off my Dogeza for the first time in a while?

Liz picks up and inspects the carefully placed jewels in the box. The color is translucent red. The feeling of being sucked into it when you look at it might be proof that the jewel has magical powers. After a quick glance at the jewelry, Liz blinks her eyes.

Hhhhm, Shero\'s Cursed Stone, huh Looks just like a jewel. (Liz)

Right now, the curse is just inactive. Her Majesty Shero\'s spellcraft power is incomparable to any other curse. (Eliza)

Speaking of a Cursed Spirit Stone, it is quite famous I heard it was missing, but I never thought it was in the Imperial Capital (Sytry)

Sytry said with a serious expression in response to what Eliza said.

The recent series of curses was full of unexpected things. A Magic Sword that bewilders the minds of swordsmen under the "Sword Saint (Kensei)" tutelage, a Black World Tree that erases magic, a forbidden Potion that has destroyed several countries, and a deadly curse weapon that the "Light Spirit (Korei)" Church once gave up on purifying. They are all first-class cursed items that would cause an uproar in the Imperial Capital even if you pick just one of them up. And yet, even those cursed items fade in front of the Cursed Spirit Stone. The scale of damage and degree of recognition between them are too different.

This jewel, which contains the will to curse and kill the human race, was once a calamity by itself. It seems that for some reason, no more casualties showed up along the way, but there are those who assert that if it had continued its rampage, the human race would have perished by now.

The curse was active It is hard to imagine it was in the Imperial Capital all this time. (Eliza)

But, you did well to successfully suppress the greatest curse Even though most of our attacks didn\'t get through. (Lucia)

Umu (Anthem)

Anthem nodded at what Lucia said. Originally, ordinary attacks are difficult to use in a battle against curses, but the power of that curse was even more powerful than anything possible. After all, it did not care about the attacks of famous Hunters of the Imperial Capital. If there had been more time, they might have been able to find its weak point, but that would definitely have resulted in a lot of casualties.

Eliza says with her usual sleepy eyes.

With ingenuity. All thanks To Kuu. (Eliza)

Hmmmph. All that matters is that it ended well The problem is with Luke-chan, riiiight. (Liz)

Potion didn\'t work either and as Eliza-san said, it doesn\'t look like a normal petrification. (Sytry)

There are several types of petrification. If it is just physical petrification, it can be undone with Potions, but this time it is not at that level. It is the deadliest curse that repels the purification of Anthem Smart, one of the most powerful healers in the Imperial Capital Church. Only Luke was affected, but probably Liz or Lucia wouldn\'t have been able to escape the petrification if they had been hit.

Eliza nodded slightly at what Sytry said and said with a serious expression that you wouldn\'t expect will come from her normally.

A lot of resentment had been put into it. To break this curseOnly a Shaman from the same rank as Her Majesty Shero can do it. Probably someone at the top of Yggdra It might be necessary to meet with the Royal Family of Spirit People. If we don\'t meet with them, he will remain a stone forever. (Eliza)

Thanks for reading! Let\'s gooooo! Cry\'s going to meet with the Royal Family of Spirit People! Will his provocation passive skill activate again in front of the Royal Family!? Also poor Kruz, she just got back to be eaten by Mimic-kun But Cry did take her out right? (^_^")
