“Come on, wait a minute…”
Mir, who is about to twist his tongue at the sudden answer and has a suspicious look, is restrained with his hand.
“Why? I’ll free you from the curse as you wish, what’s your complaint?”
I’m so embarrassed, but she tilts her head as if she doesn’t understand my attitude.
“Should it be called rejection rather than dissatisfaction?
Every time Mir with criminal eyes approaches me, as if a suspicious scheme has it, I take a step back.
“This is the only way to break the curse, and I don’t know which heretic you fought with, but the curse engraved on you is not common.”
In the first place, the curse itself cannot be said to be ordinary, but to convince me, I hold the dagger in a rather serious mood.
It was really about to stab me with that sword, and I instinctively sensed that if I didn’t keep going like this, I would be in a tough situation again.
At that time, when he recalls the unpleasant sensation he felt when his oath was almost forcibly lifted by Mir, the memories left behind like a trauma make him goosebumps.
“Then stop stepping back and sever your oath.”
Like a criminal organization that drives the main character of Bi-yun to a corner, it approaches me slowly and slowly, and I try to keep the distance accordingly.
Tuk!
“uh?!”
However, there was a limit to escaping, and soon my back hit the hard and cold wall, and the fact that there was nowhere to escape from was imprinted in my mind.
Whether it was bad luck or even this was Mir’s clever and delicate target.
“There’s nowhere to back down now, so why are you trying to refuse in the first place? I’m going to get rid of the filth that taints you inside, aren’t you supposed to be grateful?”
Of course, saying that I will lift the terrible curse I am carrying is a wonderful suggestion… but the process for it makes my head desperately limp.
I don’t know what principle it will release, but breaking the oath itself is enough to give Mir a good reason to reject Mir’s offer.
“I’m grateful for that, but isn’t that the only thing? There’s really no other magic?!”
At the end of the dark day that disturbed me at that time, when I lightly stabbed my chest, the resentment surged even more.
“I don’t think it’s possible~?”
With a playful, playful smile, he droops at the end of his words.
This is… the expression that clearly exists another way…
However, Mir said that there was no other way, whether she wanted the pledge to be lifted.
An inner conflict that arises when you are now at a dead end.
Do you keep the curse as it is and endure the pain caused by the curse, or will you break your vow and be at peace?
The effect of the curse I have now is so great that it is impossible to live my daily life, so it must be lifted.
But… severing the oath was also a formidable choice.
Breaking the oath, frankly, was a sentence like a death sentence for me.
The reason it’s too cumbersome to explain now, it’s Eleanor’s crazy obsession
The oath was a concept that could be called a symbol as well as a medium that connects the god and the servant.
In other words, the oath imprinted on me is the decisive proof that I belong to Eleanor.
So, breaking such a pledge would destroy the evidence that I belonged to her, and the justification for me to remain by her side would disappear.
Eleanor has been saying over and over with an atmosphere close to hate, crossing boundaries that breaking the oath with her own mouth is to her that the sky is falling, and that it is absolutely unacceptable and should not happen.
In fact, in the past, if I tried to break the pledge in any way, they forcibly summoned me and pressed me with an unbearable cold gaze.
Ever since I first asked her to break the oath, I wasn’t the Eleona in the game I knew.
Every time I tried to break my oath with her, she thoroughly suppressed my freedom in order not to let me go.
Even so, now, the thought of breaking the pledge has been completely folded, and although it is on the lesser side, it does not mean that it has decreased.
So now, if I try to break up with her again, I will forcefully hold her back just like I did back then.
Unlike in the past, she has accumulated many memories of spending time with her, and among them there are also irreversible memories, so she will go crazy…
“eww….”
Even vaguely imagining such a thing makes me moan without realizing it.
I had to think of another excuse, I had to convince Mir, who seemed to know something else.
In the midst of desperately thinking of a breakthrough while tying up my hair…
uh?
As I looked back on the vaguely remembered past rather than out of nowhere, I came up with useful excuses.
A single memory that had been forgotten all along, a scene that remained vividly in the fragments
On the day I first met Mir, there was a time when I refused her offer to become a Black Knight and chose the goddess I worship, and then the vow was forcibly cut off.
At that time, the dagger Mir used was the same as the one that was threatening me now.
Mir, who was running rampant in an atmosphere that even felt like madness, tried to forcibly bond with him, breaking the symbol that connects me with Eleanor by sticking a dagger in his chest.
However, at the moment when the oath was really about to be lifted, there was an anecdote that I was forcibly summoned by Eleanor and had to explain what was going on with all my heart.
The point here is that if you forcefully break the oath, you will be summoned by Eleona.
You must use this point to excuse Mir.
“But if you touch the vow without the goddess’s permission, will it disappear suddenly like the last time?”
With a confident face and a light smile, he speaks confidently, but…
“That’s not something you need to worry about, last time I didn’t know there was such a device, so I was just being vigilant, this time I’m not making any mistakes.”
Mir refutes the excuses he barely came up with, whether a countermeasure had been prepared from the beginning.
“……”
I thought how I had hoped and threw my own odds… I was refuted so easily than I expected, so naturally I am at a loss for words.
“After a lot of thought, I wanted to say something, and that’s it?”
Mir looked at my bewildered face with an insignificant expression, and the power felt from the dagger began to grow stronger.
“If there is nothing more to say, proceed.”
Contrary to me who is serious, I stab my chest with a dagger in a light atmosphere.
“for a moment!!”
At my desperate and urgent restraint, she sighs and looks up at the dry sky for a moment.
“Why? There’s no sure way other than this?”
Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Now, he furrows his eyebrows as if he doesn’t understand my attitude.There is no sure way other than this…
Recalling the lines of Mir that he just said, he discovers some flaws.
A playful smile and hints as if there was something different before.
This convinced her that there was another way.
“Isn’t that the sure way, not the only way?”
“…”
I keep silent at my words and can hardly deny it.
“I don’t know that the oath will be broken even if I’m not summoned this time, then the goddess I serve will do anything to get me back.”
“Hmm…”
I looked into my serious eyes with a questionable expression to see if it was interesting but anxious inside.
“So, if there is another way, please let me know. Breaking the oath is… not for now.”
Perhaps the persuasion of conversion, which may be her last effort, worked, she groans bitterly as if she is suffering from internal chaos, but soon reaps the dagger that was about to pierce her chest.
“There’s really no other loach in this respect, so I’ll step back for the next one.”
Fortunately, Mir, who agreed with me, makes the dagger disappear into the air again.
phew…
A sigh of relief that spit out all your worries inside, relieves tension.
“Well, for me, the other method is not bad.”
There were other ways besides breaking the vow, too.
“Then you’re agreeing to proceed with another treatment?”
I ask Mir, who asks me to confirm, by nodding his head clearly.
“I don’t know what it is, but I’ll ask you that.”
As soon as I got permission from my mouth, he grabbed my shoulders and fixed them tightly so that I could not move freely…
“Okay, do you agree? No complaints later.”
He spit out something disturbing.
“Mir? What the hell are you going to do—”
side
While he was about to question the anxiety that passed by late, his head was shaken by the touch of his lips pushed in.
“?!!”
Mir’s sudden surprise kiss was so sudden that it came in as a perfect critical hit.
Recognizing reality again, my eyes widen and I try to resist the force of robbing my tongue, but…
“Oh, this will disturb you, so stay calm.”
The stronger the wind, the more I had to watch my lips get stolen.
“Pooh…”
The two lips that could barely be separated, and I was fortunate to be able to breathe the cold air again, but I couldn’t shake my bitter heart as I opened my eyes and felt Cobain.
“What the hell are you doing?!”
As soon as her mouth was free, she immediately protested against her, but instead shrugged her shoulders and turned her back on me.
“Obviously, you told me to do it in a different way? So I just did it out of respect for your opinion.”
Is this the… other treatment Mir said?
Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No, what is this…The moment I thought of that, I didn’t want to believe Mir’s next words, but I had to accept it.
“I sucked out the darkness that the curse contained within you, because I eat the darkness. By absorbing the darkness directly from you like this, even in a slightly stimulating way, you will feel much more comfortable from the curse.”
I want to tackle it, but somehow there are some persuasive words left behind, but I had to accept it.
“Anyway… Does this mean the curse is lifted?”
But I shake my head in denial to such a question.
“I’m sorry, but that’s not the case. It sucked out the darkness that the curse was wearing. It didn’t swallow the curse itself, so it’s still inside you.”
Well, then there’s no reason why I should be s*xually harassed…
He grumbles and expresses his dissatisfaction, but he refutes this opinion as if he were reading my thoughts.
“But the pain caused by the curse will be less painful for a while, and I was sure there was a way to break the vow and lift the curse, but you are the one who chose this method.
It may be my fault for asking her to do it unconditionally without hearing the explanation in advance…. Seeing her smiling happily while she licked her lips, I wanted to bet on something else.
“Okay… So, what should I do now? It’s not that the root cause is gone, so this isn’t the only time I’ve lost my lips.”
Half hoped it wouldn’t happen, but the reality was horrendous.
“Okay, so when the pain caused by the curse makes life impossible again, you have to treat me this way again.”
I sighed heavily at those words and felt like throwing everything away… Still, it wasn’t as bad as destroying the evidence that connected me and Eleanor, so I accepted it with half-determination.
“By the way… Why is it possible to completely remove the curse with this? The heretic who threw the dagger at that time didn’t seem like such a great person.”
Mir hears me and begins to explain the curse engraved inside me.
“Perhaps there was a curse in the dagger, and it was like you were grabbed by the dagger, I didn’t know because I wasn’t there at the time, but as I said before, this curse is not common.”
Once again, the danger of this curse is imprinted, and one question arises.
What is it about this curse that even the last old dragon who has eaten only darkness for the rest of his life can’t easily break it?
“And I’ve always wondered, but what is this curse? What is it that you are talking about?”
Mir, who was asked the question, clasped her chin with her hand for a moment and seemed to be in trouble, and such a figure created a silhouette like a detective who was reasoning.
“The magic that the curse within you now exudes… I’m not sure, but I think you know the owner.”
master of magic? Does that mean you know who made this curse?
“who?”
Mir creates a heavy atmosphere with a serious look that I have never felt before.
“Lusria… One of the Old Gods that do not exist in the world now, and a god who has been corrupted by darkness in the past…”
He murmurs as if he is someone he knows well.
Lusria
It was definitely a name I had never heard of.
It was an Old God who did not appear directly in-game, but was only portrayed directly or indirectly.
According to the setting, Lusria was originally a goddess of chastity, but it was a setting that in the past, when wars with the ancient dragons continued, she accepted the darkness for power and fell.
Lusria was also revered due to the characteristics of the heretics who worship and serve the fallen gods that have now disappeared, that is, the Old Gods.
“My memory is hazy, but she probably died before I became an adult.”
Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
No matter how the same god and the common enemy of the old dragon, if it was corrupted by darkness, it was considered to be in the same barrel as the old dragon, so it was hostile to the gods and disappeared.”At Mir-e, I was interested in hearing about facts that I didn’t know about in the game.
“I don’t know if you know… The ultimate goal of the heathens is to resurrect the Old Gods, so even if you were cursed with Lusria’s magical powers, it wouldn’t be too strange for you who were associated with heretics.”
All situations are understood and I quickly organize information and facts in my head.
“But, how did the heathens use the magic of the old god, Lusria, on the curse?”
“Even heretics are capable of using some kind of black magic, researching the gods they serve and restoring their magical powers in a similar way.”
So, even Mir couldn’t solve it easily, no matter how much Mir swallowed the darkness and increased her power, the curse placed on me is in a way the power of God… It was enough.
“It’s no luck, why do you have to face the cultists with dangerous objects…”
When he looked at me with sympathetic eyes that were somewhat pitiful, he couldn’t answer.
Looking back, it was true that I had bad luck, so I can’t think of anything to say.
“Then what should I do now? I want to completely lift this curse…”
There was a lot of talk about this and that, but in the end, it was said that this curse could not be easily lifted…
“Is there no way?”
Mir seems to have heard a voice muttering like a self-talk, and Mir throws out her opinion.
“I can’t say for sure, but I think there must be a little more close combat with the infidels so that we can see some clues.”
Yes…. But, as I said before, if there is no event, it is difficult to meet heretics.
But no matter how much I think about it, there is no way that I will be involved in heathenism in the future.
Just as I was about to think about it, a certain fact flashed through my head, causing a light bulb to float above my head.
have…?

Now that I think about it, if you look at the progress of the main story, there was a huge-scale story that would be progressing soon.The main story where the main stage itself changes from the guild hall and the streets of the royal road to another place as if moving on to the next chapter of the story…
“First of all, thank you for letting me know. I’m sorry that I have an urgent reason to go, but I think I should go.”
“Ugh…if you say so…but remember this before you go, you have to see me for treatment on a regular basis.”
The atmosphere was so different, I was a little embarrassed, so I gave my advice a little blurry.
“….. okay.”
After receiving such advice from Mir, I left the alley on the spot and hurriedly took my steps.
It won’t change much if I say this right now, but my urgency keeps accelerating my steps.
It should be related to paganism as much as possible…. It would be difficult in the first place, but as you progress through the main story, the development will unfold soon.
“……”
If you look at the simple possibilities alone, it may be slim, but the hope of any chance continues to speed up your steps.
