Even Though I was the Real Saint, I was Exiled—Which Means my Country is Over (WN)

Quickly Claude and His Majesty the King asked me to look into the throne.

"Again... it looks like something is being cleverly hidden here.I feel strange. "

Touching the throne, I concluded so.

Well then, Elaine. There's something in here with the Demon King seal...?

"I don't look like an irreplaceable throne."

Nigel and Claude talked.

Now —— between the thrones is me, Nigel.And Claude... plus the King and some knights.

They looked at me uniformly.

"Yeah, it's just... it seems pretty cleverly hidden.I think it's probably locked by magic or something.... "

"Don't you even know Elaine?

I shake my neck vertically.

"Perhaps it was the Demons who planted this.If you look at this place too much, it's not convenient, so I think you've covered it up like this. "

I couldn't tell without paying close attention.

It is no wonder no one has noticed this before.

"But... if you can't do it, Elaine, it's too late."

Claude drops his shoulders.

"Oh, Prince Claude is right.As it stands, there are no more magicians in this country than Elaine... no, there is no one in the world. "

"You might find out over time, but as you all know, we don't have much time.If we only knew the identity of this discomfort, it might be a different story.... "

We all worry about our heads.

But I finally found a clue.

I want to give up here and avoid swinging out again...

"But I don't have time to worry.I'll look into this a little bit more.Call Claude and His Majesty the King for the court sorcerer..... "

I tried to keep saying that.

"You don't have to."

Between the thrones, the voice of a strong girl echoes.

Everyone turns their voices at once.

"Leticia!

Claude rushes first, and the woman who walks here rushes to Leticia.

"Leticia, are you feeling better now?My complexion seems to have gotten much better..... "

"Elaine, could you show me something?"

Leticia ignores Claude's words and asks me.

As I nodded, Leticia approached the throne and laid her hand on it.

"... I knew it.It's not magic, it's a curse. It's blocking the entrance. "

"The entrance is sealed?

"Yes, in my opinion, the curse is the key.If we can disarm this, we should be able to open the way to the basement. "

Leticia said so in an undisputed tone.

I see... a curse?

I am not an expert on curses.It's inferior to the magician.

But... as we know from Alberto's case, Leticia is a sorcerer.

Besides, it's a pretty good category.

That's why you can also see the curse placed on the throne.

"Leticia... what's wrong with the way you talk?

Claude asks afraid from behind.

Indeed... as far as I can remember, Leticia spoke sweetly, like more sugary sweets.

But... I'm not even pursuing that right now.

"My power will not lift the curse."

Leticia ignores Claude's questions and continues.

"I think it was the demons who ruled this country... but I'm sure that's not true.I can't create a curse that keeps them active even after they die. "

"Does that mean...?

"More powerful, I'm sure.I think I set this up so that people wouldn't understand the sealed place... "

More powerful... If you become more advanced demons, will you be the Virgin of the Beginning or the Demon King?

But I don't think the Virgin of the Beginning can use the curse, and the line of the Demon King seems solid.

It felt like it was getting closer and closer to certainty.

"Anyway, this is pretty powerful.I can't undo it.But if it's Elaine..... "

"Yeah."

If that's the case, the story is quick.

I concentrated on meditating my eyes and lifted the curse in an instant.

"Okay, now the curse... oh?Here and here on the floor are unnaturally changing colors.It's as if I added it later.Maybe..... "

I'll try and put my hand on the floor and send some magic.

Then what is it?

The floor emitted light, and when it disappeared, a staircase leading to the basement appeared.

Looks like you got it.

Looking in, it was dark inside and the stairs seemed to last a long time.

In addition, you can feel the magic and resentment you've never felt before.

My feet slow down.

But... there's definitely something in here.

"Thank you, Leticia.If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have realized it was a curse. "

"You're welcome."

Leticia turned away from me like she wasn't feeling well.

"What do you mean...?Leticia, why would you notice something that Eliane didn't even notice?And the curse.... "

"Oh, it's easy.Because I'm a curse master. "

I don't know what to do... and Leticia slits her mouth.

"... what?

Claude's expression was puffy.

It looks like your understanding hasn't kept up.

"Fufufu, what's wrong?Didn't you hide that you were a magician?

"I don't care anymore.And... even if you're saying that, it's gone. "

Looking at the look on Leticia's face, it seems different from before.

I guess I used to say it had a more childish look... but now it looks like an adult who decided to be prepared.

"I like you better.I should have done it from the beginning. "

"... hohnnn.I wonder what I was thinking.It's easier this way. "

and a bitter look on Leticia's face.

"Well... that's what you said, but that's not even what you're saying right now.Let's move on. "

"Elaine, I'm coming with you."

I nodded when I saw Nigel step forward.

"... to be honest, I don't know what's going on in my mouth.But I'm sure it's important.Perhaps we should take some of the kingdom's proud knights with us.

That's what the King proposes.

"No, thank you.I'm happy to be concerned, but I don't know what's going to happen inside. "

politely declined.

... but I thought the real thing would be to keep my feet tight.

That's right, me and Nigel, it's hard to protect you.It seems narrow inside, and it may be difficult to move.

Well then, Nigel. Quickly.... "

"Wait a minute."

I tried to go underground.

Leticia put her hand on her chest and said this in straight words.

"Take me with you.Don't pull your legs. "
