Kuro no Maou

Episode 493: Cursing Original Magic

"Ursula's power is not a curse. Probably the first magic (original) with a powerful absorption (drain) effect"

Having listened to the story, I concluded so.

Dozens of humans have fallen into a coma, or monsters as big as Dortos have become bones in an instant, and they do exhibit a nasty effect that only seems to be a vicious curse... if you say it's such a powerful curse, it would be odd if there wasn't a tremendous resentment there.

I know so much about the identity of the curse and the resentment that can be called nucleus, which is so intensely self-assertive, that I don't like it because of the curse weapons I've dealt with so far. Yes, a curse is inherently a force of intense will, enough to make even the possessor's ego tolerable and crazy.

But Ursula did not hear the voice of the curse, that she did not touch the will of the curse, which means that the power was not brought about by some resentment, but proof that it was her own power.

But even though I was born with a power, it's not always perfectly usable. In short, Ursula, like Fiona, is just not well controlled by magic.

"It's a wack that's the best way to actually use it to get used to power. Come on, Ursula, do everything in your power to free yourself."

"... eh"

With a blurry face, Ursula hasn't shown a jerk, more like she hasn't kept up with a bad story. Hmm, no matter how intelligent the kids are, was it still difficult to have something like a magic theory?

"It's probably... awesome, it's dangerous"

"That's why you've come to an unpopular place."

This is a wide snowfield with just a few hundred meters out of the village. As soon as someone comes through the streets, you can discover them, and even if the monsters jump out of the woods on the left and right, there's as much distance as you can afford to deal with them.

I left Randolph a word, and even if he didn't, he'd be busy right now at the end of the Goblin battle, so in case the villagers don't show up here.

After I finished the conversation, Good brought Ursula here just to hurry.

"But Lord Chloe..."

"I'm fine. It's hard to curse."

"It's not a curse."

"Well, it would be a curse, but it would be the original magic (original), but it doesn't make that big a difference because we just have to keep it down with strength anyway"

Because I still rely on 'blackening'.

By adding (enchanting) black magic, I can reinforce matter and dominate the curse, but by the same procedure, I have taught Mary, my beloved horse.

She is now transformed into an undead immortal horse (Nightmare), but in her lifetime (?) But the effect of my magic flushing in tune was sufficient. That's enough that even I'm still new to horseback riding to get to Ischia Old Castle with Nell on board and breaking through the monster hissing siege net.

"Look, Ursula, I'll hold back the power with you. Don't worry."

Put your hands gently on her luxurious shoulders. Standing close again this way makes me realize Ursula is still a little girl.

Very, I don't think you have a tremendous magical power within you.

"Is this the first time you've exercised your full power?

"... Yes. I don't know what's going to happen."

"It's okay, it's bound to work. Can you believe me?"

If you try Ursula, it's completely unfounded, such as my words, and I myself, I don't know if it's going to work.

Still, I am strongly convinced that Ursula should not be left behind. Her abilities may be 'curses' in the right sense from a crucian point of view.

But that's why you can't refuse to execute him in the name of the curse, and it's too harsh to spend the rest of your life frightened of Wake's unclear power.

The point is, all you have to do is use your powers.

At least, if you can control the force, you can hide it through perfectly. You don't have to be afraid of the extra anxiety that you will find out one day, you will be able to live a peaceful life as always with confidence.

Alternatively, you can use this power to take new paths such as adventurers. In this world, power has never crossed. It's worth immeasurable, even if you use it purely to protect yourself.

Control of power can be of great benefit to Ursula this way, but, well, in the end, my own desire to remove her anxiety is the biggest reason for such a magic teacher to do such an imitation.

"Yes, I believe in Lord Chloe."

Apparently, Ursula cared about me jerking off. When the big blue eyes were slowly closed, the change quickly came.

When the fuzzy, and silver-haired twisted tail ripples, the example white mist gushes thin so as to give rise to hot air. The white steam gradually darkens its shade.

Ursula wraps up in the usual monastic clothes. From its long sleeves and hem, the fog overflows unstoppably.

If you noticed, your vision was completely closed to the thick fog and even though you were at close range grabbing your shoulders, you could only see Ursula's face as bonkers.

"... eh"

And I feel it all over me. Oh, this is indisputable, nothing more than an absorption (drain) that is forced to take away magic.

When he once fought a crack in a white mask called Cyprus, he had a powerful drain attack on his manipulative serpent demon (Servant). It feels exactly the same then.

He did say it was developed under the name 'Black Eating White Snake (Climb Eater)' for the purpose of securely detaining experimental objects dealing with black magic. The degree of drain was overwhelmingly stronger over there, even though it was a dedicated user demon (servant) on a boulder. It was going to take all my magic in a matter of minutes, and the truth is, the magic is on the bottom.

I am completely enveloped by Ursula's emitted fog, just like Leki, but I have yet to absorb enough to feel the crisis. Maybe I can afford it because my magic power is increasing compared to that time.

Then again, Leki shows that she was the only one standing in the first incident, that she was not greatly debilitated even in one of today's cases, that these are her own amount of magic, that her vitality is far higher than that of an ordinary person.

"... blackened"

I activated the black magic, sensing that a little bit of Drain came into effect.

This time, I use it in a slightly different way than usual.

Ursula is bleeding magic from her shoulder-mounted hands, and I am also defending myself against Drain, releasing it from all over my body. From the side, it would seem like a black aura stands up from my body.

Flushing magic yourself with blackening and being absorbed with drain is no different to having magic disappear from your body as a result, but there is a difference in its consumption of cloud mud. Does it feel like it offsets momentum by hitting magic power with a certain amount on its own against absorption?

But this also occurs because there is not so much difference between the amount released and the amount absorbed. Going forward, if Ursula's drain ability increases further, you won't be able to expect much more from her defense. And that's definitely unbearable to the point of being powerful enough to whitebone Dortos instantly.

Well, I'm letting Ursula run her magic on herself so she doesn't, at least so I can control the activation of her powers.

"Ah... Ku, Dear Chloe..."

"What's the matter, Ursula, is it painful?

With his eyes firmly meditated, Ursula tells him to twinkle as he shed a glimmer of cold sweat from his forehead.

"Also, I can't keep it down anymore, maybe..."

"We don't need to be forced to contain it. You can use your strength to the limit."

I feel Ursula's body, little by little, covered with my black magic.

Magic is not so easy to give to others. So the magic I poured in with blackening is not a wax absorbed by Ursula with equals as it is.

Structurally, it feels like it is just blackened and covered on the surface of a person's body. It's impossible to control Ursula's original magic (original) itself, but the theory that wrapping it with my black magic suppresses the force from going out, adjusting it is possible with this consciousness.

Most importantly, just as I control the curse weapon, it's a power move that suppresses me because I outperform myself by absolute magic.

I chose this method because I was confident that I could contain it with this enormous amount of magic.

"Sorry, Lord Chloe... wow, I... I want"

So Ursula's eyes are opened. My spine froze as soon as my gaze matched.

"-!?

There must have been circular blue eyes, but there lived a bright red, congested white eye and a purple glow as poisonous as Hydra's demonic eye.

The light overlaps with some demonized Fiona. I'm not just a human being. Maybe I woke up with a much worse force than I thought.

"Whoa!?

Suddenly a gust of gushing wind, no, a turbulent stream of white mist rises up my body. The fog leaking from the hem of the monastic garment whirled as it tangled and caught my leg, and the next moment it turned into an upward airflow and spurted up momentum.

I beat the blackening to the brim, let go of both shoulders of Ursula I grabbed, and I chose to be blown away by the foggy wind. For once, my instincts strongly complained that it would be safer to distance ourselves here.

When it was flown up to about five meters above, the rest began to fall free according to gravity. There was no fog chase. Thanks to you, I'll land safe.

Thus, when she turned her gaze to Ursula again, her 'curse' was revealing its true appearance.

"Hey, what are you..."

A white figure floats behind Ursula like a ghost.

Pretty big. It is nearly three metres in size because it is still twice as tall as Ursula, which is less than 150 cm tall. The white shadow rising in a thin bonyard of fog is undoubtedly created by the fog itself thickening its density.

Silhouette like a pure white robe with no decoration whatsoever. shadows, can be judged because there is a line of shoulders floating there and just the part of the head is clearly and visibly formed.

Sole was the face of a woman. Though a clear noticeable nose must be beautiful, its skin, long, wavy hair, and open eyes are bright white, so it's closer to something like a plaster statue than a biological woman. It is a shape that is uncomfortable even if it is displayed as it is in some museum.

But the fact that Colle did not imitate a human woman as such was shown by two horns stretching from her forehead. It has the same shape as a young man.

"Ursula! It's okay, hold on!

Ursula, who floats a white misty bitch, turns her gaze like she reacted to my voice as she demonizes her purple eyes in blood.

"Heh, heh... heh, heh..."

Ursula with the devil's eye, laughs.

Oh, it sounds like a mess. It seems insane.

"Ursula, take care. You know what I mean?

"Hehe, Lord Chloe... I, I know... Ugh, Lord Chloe, delicious"

It's on a young girlfriend. Seriously, luscious tongue nodding.

When I realized, there was a mist pouring in at my feet, and from there, little by little, but steadily eating black magic.

Lord Chloe, please.

Hugh, the fog moves along with the sound of a woody death blowing through and then sounding like a tall woman's voice.

The shadow arm of a woman spirited behind her back - literally, stretched - as Ursula interacts with the kind of motion that reaches out to me.

The white hand of a hidden woman on the sleeve of a robe approaches with tremendous speed and intimidation. The area of the arm was not waxed like rubber, but seemed to be dense and foggy back, and seemed to be connected to the body by white smoke. Kind of like a rocket punch.

Big bright white palms spreading to grab me. It's too dangerous to take him directly from the front, no matter what you think. From the sensation, perhaps, this hand must have a comparable strong absorption power when it instantly whitened Dortos just by touching it.

"- Whoa!"

I should have dodged it pretty sparingly, but I felt magic coming out of my body all at once. In fact, it seemed clear to me that this eye also seemed to be sucked in by the misty hand that leaked out of my body.

This is a little, no, pretty bad. This drain ability is finally like 'Black Eating White Snake (Climb Eater)'.

"Heh heh heh... Dear Chloe, Dear Chloe"

Ursula reaches for the other hand as well.

Now, come with both hands.

"Damn, howitzer shelling (grenade burst) Huh!

I am forced to choose an attack in front of both hands, which looms with tremendous absorption. Avoidance alone is unlikely to outweigh this situation.

Of course it's the foggy hand that's after you. You can't hit Ursula herself. No matter how dangerous, I can't let you suffer one cusli wound.

As an adult, that's about the minimum obligation. I'm only seventeen.

"I knew it would only take a while"

The grenade burst I unleashed hit the middle of my palm with different dimensions. A black-red, two-colored blast of flames scatters a bright white mass of fog that appears only in the hands of a beautiful woman.

But without any damage, he didn't even show how he had drained his magic, and his robe's sleeve flipped into the shadow of a floating woman, and instantly his arm was back on track.

Regeneration, rather than, I guess, doesn't mean much to that woman's form itself. The essence of Ursula's power is all this standing fog. What a woman looks like is just a phantom (vigeon), and the power of absorption (drain) is equal to the total amount of fog emitted.

"I want it, me, I want more... Hey, Dear Chloe..."

With a more delightful, no, tranced look than I've ever seen before, Ursula reaches out to me for my magic.

"Oh, okay, Ursula"

The easiest way to get through this predicament is to kill Ursula. But I naturally reject such a downfall.

The next thing I know is to stun them. It may hurt to make him eat a blow, but it's not a big deal in terms of damage to the flesh. But this is also rejected.

In the first place, I was the one who told you to use all your strength.

And even though it was just a little more power than I expected, this can be considered a situation as originally planned. From the beginning, it is an operation, a cure for desolation, also in anticipation of her power going wild.

"Until I'm satisfied, I'll give it to you -"

Come on, let's get ready for the magic to run out of the bottom and decide to hang out with Ursula.

"Ha, I'm home..."

It was not until after sundown that I returned to the church. His breath was constant, not so much a lifelong resurrection.

"Hey, welcome back - wow, Chloe, your complexion is deep blue!?

I can't help but be surprised that Leki welcomed me. I'm pretty much devastated by Ursula's opponent, so I'm in a lot of magic deficiency.

"It's okay, because if you sleep overnight, it'll heal. I'd appreciate it if we could have a quick meal."

"Oh ray! Gohan's ready, Mars!

I'm really tired enough to want to fall into bed right now, but if I don't eat properly, my resilience will definitely go down. Let's eat hard. Besides, it's also the dinner Leki prepared for me at the corner. It means you can hit a bee without hindrance.

"Wol was all right. Is that Death?

"Hmm... okay, so..."

Ursula, who replies that she doesn't seem too okay, is hiding behind me, as if she had become a familiar child.

I already know that the face she's hiding is dyed by Zhu in hot flames right now.

"Ur? What's wrong, Death?

"Ho, really, it's okay..."

"Dear Chloe, what's wrong with Ur, Death? Awesome and suspicious day!

"Oh, that was the first time I had absorbed a good amount of magic, so I was feeling -"

"Bad Death!?

"No, it's getting too good. It feels like you have extra magic in your body, so Ursula will settle down if you sleep overnight too"

In the meantime, that's the only possible cause. When Fiona asked me casually before what happens when I drink a magic restoration potion while it's nothing, I correctly heard that my body lights up and becomes restless like Ursula is now. A poor magic boost, he said, would not recommend taking a magic potion before the battle because it would instead result in a loss of concentration. Sure, I've never seen one of those adventurers do that either.

That's my exact answer, but Leki looked subtle and then pulled him into the kitchen, whether he was convinced or not.

From Leki, who's not the sorcerer type, maybe it's a story that doesn't really make sense.

"What do Ursula do for dinner?

"... today, I'm going to bed"

I'm so full of black magic, I wouldn't have a problem draining a meal.

"Well, good night"

"Oh, good night, what..."

Ursula blushed her cheeks, looking slightly moist, and left straight for her room.

Of course, her eyes are so much back to their original blue eyes. At the same time that the original magic (original) of the fog disappeared, the eyes were back to normal. After all, it is definitely linked to the exercise of power.

I broke up with Ursula and turned to the dining room where I could smell the usual bean soup, which was dinner.

"Welcome back, brother"

"I'm home, Yuri"

Entering the dining room, Saliel exchanges white acting greetings as she waited for her seat. You've become totally familiar with him when you realize he's calling you a brother.

"Maybe you waited till we got back?

"Yes."

While I hear that, I'm in position next to Sariel, too. On the table, the food hasn't been arranged yet.

"You could have eaten first"

I didn't think it would take me this long, either. Starting tomorrow, I'll tell you to eat first when it's late.

"It's draining a lot of magic. Ursula's original magic (original) is presumed to exceed original expectations"

"Me, you look that bad?

"Appearance changes are somewhat, to the extent that the blood is losing its temper. But my sixth sense detects a clear magical decline"

"It's a boulder, you are"

Is the sharp sixth sense alive? They're going to grab their weaknesses easily. Horrible.

"Indeed, Ursula's power was more than I could have imagined. I don't know what that is."

"Regret, do you"

"No way. I'm glad you found out while I'm here."

If I were a juxtaposed sorcerer, I would be very unstoppable in Ursula's abilities. It is obvious that the damage will expand unnecessarily and that it will at last be irrevocable enough to have to be executed.

"Ursula's ability is still definitely absorbed (drain). However, it is dense enough for a woman's vision to float in the fog. Besides, if you activate it at all costs, Ursula loses her sanity"

"Common phenomena for those that use powerful original magic (original). It has been analyzed as feeling almighty or in a state of extreme excitement by wielding mighty power"

If you use strong force, that makes you high.

I have this power in me now, basically acquired in a hell of a human experiment. Perhaps because of the tremendous pain, it is not possessed by the charm of strong power itself.

If I had just come to the other world, with so much superhuman ability in my hands, I might have been in better shape. I'm going to mistake myself for a chosen, special person.

"Ursula felt like she wanted to eat more of my magic. Said it was delicious."

"One of the reasons why absorption (drain) magic is banned in Sinclair is that it involves intense pleasure when drained"

"Oh, hey, wait, I didn't hear that."

"... excuse me"

As stupid as ever, I apologize honestly, Sariel, but on second thought, after the discussion, goodness told me to hurry and I immediately took Ursula out. Sariel was there, but I didn't ask for an opinion.

It's totally my fault.

"What does that mean, when you use your drain abilities, you might have a drug dependence?

"Yes, Drain, I hear those who have mastered magic cannot help but absorb all the magic that is around them"

"Then Ursula. Ha!

"She has resistance. If you can't resist the pleasure of Drain, you will run wild at the first incident, or repeat the offense after the incident"

You mean some of them are okay?

"It is those who are inherently incapable of draining that are prone to fall into dependency. If you have it as original magic (original), its control is built into your instincts. Never remember excessive pleasure."

"I see... you didn't stop me because you knew that"

"I also agree with the logic that control of power is for Ursula"

Sariel has become Sariel, too, and I guess he's thinking about Ursula, who's gotten along. I don't want to think it's a superficial act.

"But for once, I'll ask Ursula tomorrow. From what I saw, I felt unsettled by excessive magic, just in case I couldn't say enough about the anomaly."

I'm an amateur.

"So you got any idea what Ursula's capable of?

"Yes, the ability of the phantom to float absorb (drain) is a form of protection by the God of Evelam"

I have no idea about the history of Sinclair's feud with Evra-M. But if Saliel had more than that knowledge and upbringing as an apostle, I would have expected him to have any idea, but apparently he's a clam.

"Are you famous?

"It is well known in Sinclair as one of the most powerful 'curses' boasted by Avraham the King of Evelam, the Curse King"

Says Avraham, by his intense and incomparable drain ability, nullifies and absorbs all magic and returns it as an even more powerful curse as his own power. Because you can keep depriving your opponents of their magic, it means that you can't run out of magic until you've defeated them, essentially. Isn't it invincible?

"How did you take him down?

"We are told that the Second Apostle Abel was alone and discussed only with sword moves"

You mean boulders are just called brave men? Where he sealed his magic, his opponent Avraham would have been able to do as much offensive magic as he could with his previous magic.

"Well, better than that, how to control it, how to train it?

"This ability is famous, but it is a rarity that users could only exercise it by some of the extreme SS, including Avraham. It seems that even among the Everarms they were treated as the ultimate in magic, so any details are unknown"

I thought that would happen. Whatever it is, it means we have to do it by hand.

"By the way, did a Barbados barbarian also have special abilities?

"Beowulf the Barbarian was immortal."

"How did you take him down?

"When the Second Apostle Abel was alone, seven days and seven nights, he continued to kill Beowulf, who, when resurrected, attacked him, and at the end he became only a bone, and finally succeeded in killing him off"

Abel, it's you again.

But to Avraham the Drain Cheat, he defeated two kings: Beowulf, a few cheats remaining. Additionally, we defeated Dragnov's Dragon Emperor in addition to this, so he will be told as a legendary brave man who will make his name in history.

Now it would have been great to have a beautiful och on it if it had been a being that only lives in the legend... but Koitz is still active as a second apostle. At least, I'm not going to have any hands or feet right now.

Don't ask, Sariel accidentally opened his mouth as he was depressed.

"… do you think Ursula will be able to control the original magic (original)"

Are you going to change the subject? No, he himself probably cares because he's a particularly close Ursula.

"Honestly, I don't know. I'm gonna teach you some magic tricks, 'cause this isn't the level."

"I lost my sanity, which is a sign that I am so consumed by my own power. The risk of affecting Ursula's personality is not zero"

"Ha... I knew you would..."

Does that mean my thoughts were sweet?

No, but it proved so powerful. Ursula has the ability to kill all the villagers in this pioneering village in one night, if that's what you want.

That absorption (drain) capability has terrible properties that draw a line from just attack magic.

If you drop the output, you can take away the wrinkles and magic, and hence the vitality, without causing any pain. In other words, if the opponent wraps himself in the mist while sleeping, it is possible to lead him straight to permanent sleep.

And in action, if you release the drain with a single point concentration of maximum output, you can bone a large monster, and I'm sure the goblins can go through the bones of each flock and turn it into ash. Then, due to the properties of Drain, it will also be very powerful in breaking defensive magic.

Yeah, speaking of which, he also said he could hide himself with fog... so he could wrap his opponent with fog without showing up and maybe knock him down unilaterally.

The more I think about it, the more terrible magical powers.

But that's why.

"Hey Yuri, do you think Ursula can go on living a peaceful life forever?

"It's possible"

"There's a chance you're not."

"Yes, subtracting the original magic (original) of absorption (drain) and inferring from Ursula's character, appearance and current circumstances, it is very likely that he will be in danger in the future"

Not now. Whatever thugs attack, I can pay them back. If the Crusaders come in in in large numbers, they can run away enough to hold them.

But in less than a month, I'll be gone from this village.

If Ursula has been doing apprenticeship sisters in this pioneering village all along, when it comes to danger, it's about the onslaught of monsters like today. Already, I'm pretty sure I'm doing well enough with the villagers here.

But don't forget. After I'm gone, this church doesn't just leave Leki and Ursula's two apprentice sisters to me.

"Depending on the successor priest, the two may be flown somewhere else, or..."

It was, for one thing, thanks to the Nikolai priest that Leki and Ursula could be together.

But you can't expect a new priest to be as personable as he is. Rather, it's more likely not. Especially since such a Pandora continent is like coming to a different heaven and earth beyond the sea. There is a good chance of being a devout cross, i.e. a fundamentalist with a strong sense of discrimination.

And how many priests in Sinclair will be able to be kind to the Barbados and the Evrams, the second-degree people?

"Sinclair Republic is not a good country for both of us."

"Yes, that's why I want Ursula to be able to use her powers after all. When you have to, at least like me, you can get away with it."

"Dear Chloe, Gohan, I'm made of yo"

"Whoa!?

Suddenly, I was about to flip out of my chair at a gyto-eyed lake that broke right in front of me.

"How long have we been talking, Death? Leki's soup gets cold, Dace."

If you noticed, dinner was already ready at the table sometime. I have bean soup, black bread and another dish tonight, sautéed potatoes and salted meat.

"Oh, oh, sorry, Leki. Shall we eat soon?"

While I apologize properly, I realize. Leki's position is quite remarkable now.

She's diving under the table and riding out against me in a chair. Leki, who is naturally about to open my thrown leg with both hands and slide her body between her crotches, is almost snuggly.

A lovely swollen jaw on my chest plate, a breast too big for my age, is crumbling soft over my belly. Even over thick fabric clothes, I felt the warmth of Leki's body.

"Look, go back now"

"Oh, it's Death who can feed me Leki once in a while. Arn!"

Goddamn it, I always feed Sariel.

"I didn't say anything stupid, come on, whichever."

Leki's face is close enough that you could kiss her if you lower your face a bit. I sandwiched her cheeks from both sides with punnies. Soft, like Lily. It heals a little.

"Lord Chloe's Ketchie"

After being singled out, Leki returned to her seat reluctantly, whether satisfied or not. Again, through under the table. Don't behave yourself.

"But, well, I'm sorry I'm late. I'll have it -"

Nonetheless, the hard day I never imagined closed: fighting the Goblin Legion in the morning and fighting Ursula in the afternoon.

Tomorrow, I hope you have a little more day in peace. Unexpectedly, I'm so tired today that I'm about to pray to God...
