Seiju no Kuni no Kinju Tsukai

Episode 31: The Seventh Curse

Unusual sights had spread ahead of the destruction of the wall with the arms of the eighth curse.

A huge eight-armed demon with three heads and a herd of oaks were gathered to block the entrance and exit.

The demons seemed puzzled by my appearance.

Confronted by the herd are Mr. Currier and Mr. Cecily.

Mr. Cecily said with a blush of tears as he turned his back on me.

"Gu... If you want to come, say so..."

My voice is shaking a little.

Mr. Currier puts his hand on Mr. Cecily's shoulder as he confronts the demon.

"What I want to tell you seems like you should tell it yourself."

Good.

You two are safe.

A quick reunion.

Travel on one leg to the side of the two, feeling the force go further in.

Listen without taking your gaze off the herd of demons.

"So this situation... what happened?

"Shortly after you broke up with me, that big one came out from across the wall there. Those three heads spit out the orcs around them - they gave birth. And Cecily broke her leg in the fight."

"I see. Sounds like you got it right in a hurry"

"What happened to you? You can think of those floating arms as... allies, right?

I explained my story as concisely as possible.

It was in the room where the crest was drawn, on the same altar as when we discovered the Eighth Curse.

There was also a spell document in the altar box.

Curse of the curse document.

But there was no spiritual leeway to rejoice in obtaining the spell documents.

Returning to the two of you as soon as possible is the top priority now.

I retrieved the spell document, and as I left the room, I headed up to the hole leading up.

Going up the hole for a while I reached some hierarchy.

I read through the newly obtained spell document there that there might be a curse to help me escape.

Seventh curse.

A black sword emerges from the hole in the dimension.

But with my hands, I feel slightly larger in size.

It seems hard to use if you don't hold it with both hands.

However, if the condition of the Eighth Curse Arm is such that it is easy to hold the impression there even with one hand.

Hmm, that might be powerful depending on how you use it.

Even where you can't bring weapons in, it's like bringing weapons in.

Hmm?

Speaking of which, before, I think the Curse King said summoning a black sword was a sixth curse...

Is the seventh also a summons of the black sword?

…………

All in all, this seventh curse doesn't feel useful to escape.

For one thing, I shall also try the second stage.

A curse can use the ability of a second stage when the numbers are mastered as well.

It's called the Second World in the words of chanting.

I have mastered the Eighth Curse so I can use it.

- Second world, liberation.

When I first activated the Second World, I was surprised.

Because I thought I had been attacked.

What happened?

I wondered if there was a hole in the dimension, and two thick arms, like Skorbanger's arm, appeared all the time.

Black skin.

Red and black pulse.

Apparently, it's a cursed arm that I can freely manipulate at my will.

Forbidden arms, shall I call them?

There was also a red and black pulse on my arm after it was activated.

Probably like a sign that my curse arm and I are connected.

It just seemed like a convenient curse, but it didn't really make it a decision to escape.

Well, the world hasn't done so well.

Or at the time when a new curse was found there, I can also say that it is doing well.

It wasn't said to be the strongest curse, but it would be an excellent achievement.

After confirming the new curse, I ran all the way through that hierarchy.

What a hierarchy it turned out to be without even a staircase leading up.

When this happened, I decided to go with force moves.

From the feeling of falling and coming up, it shouldn't be that far to the hierarchy of rooms separated from Mr. Currier's.

Look up at the high ceiling.

"- Eighth curse, Second world liberation"

"- Fifth curse, liberation."

Rise with the wings of the fifth curse and destroy the floor part with the arms of the eighth curse.

I have no choice.

With force moves, we have to go.

Seventh cursed arms were also allowed to participate in the destruction of floors and walls.

Not as powerful as the eighth arm, but it worked well as an aid.

During the destruction work, there was a noise of concern somewhere.

I figured it out later, but as far as Mr. Currier's explanation is concerned, that was probably the sound of those three heads destroying the wall.

I feel like I could hear it, thanks to my hearing being raised by the power of the host of the curse.

For one thing, I decided to go for the place where it sounded.

"So we got to this room."

By the time I finished explaining, there were a few oaks rolling around us that started to dissolve.

Fight off the striking oak, but also grasp the situation between the two of you.

The problem with the status quo seems to be those three heads first.

If we don't defeat that one, will the number of oaks continue to increase...

"That playback capability is troublesome."

As a matter of fact, as soon as I get into the room, I'm blowing the face of the center of the three heads with a third curse.

But it played at an incredible rate.

During the Great Golem during Operation Giant Crusade, he won by inhibiting the Sacred Vegetarian, the source of regenerative energy, by the Demon Eater.

On the other hand, there is no sign that those three heads are taking in the sacrament.

And that look...... don't remind me of Hekatonkail.

I think Hekatonkail, who appears in the myth of the previous world, was indeed a giant with a hundred hands and fifty heads.

So technically, I guess not.

I'm so full and hungry. I don't even remember seeing an illustration...

The exit is blocked by those three heads.

Given the number of dense oaks as well, it is subtly suspicious if we can keep breaking through and all three of them are safe.

"Do you think you can break through, Crohiko?

"Given that number, you might not call it safe."

Mr. Cecily can't run with a broken leg.

I carry it and Mr. Currier breaks through?

No, should I be the other way around?

"As long as you can knock those three necks down, all you have to do is reduce the number of oaks..."

I think a breakthrough is possible enough if the enemy is just an oak.

What's still troublesome is those three heads?

Attack by eight arms.

The ability to self-regenerate close to instantaneity.

"That unusual ability to regenerate is still a source of concern..."

Mr. Cecily opened his mouth, you know.

"I've called for literature about three neck dragons with regenerative abilities before. Whatever you do, you regenerate it, but when you slash off three of its dragon's necks at the same time - without regenerating it, you say you could defeat it."

"I see, simultaneous destruction"

That's what Mr. Currier says, turning the protective species oak he's attacked into two straight pieces.

Another swing, slashing three more oaks.

"Hmm... sounds worth a try. The problem is that we need a three-point simultaneous attack that reaches those three heads..."

"Mr. Currier."

I grabbed the spear the oak threw with my left hand and threw it back, I said.

"Can I leave it to you for a while about Mr. Cecily?

Mr. Currier can add more sacraments to Livergate.

"Oh, okay"

"Okay, please"

"Simultaneous destruction, do you think you can do it alone?

"I only get one chance because of the offensive power problem - I'll do it"

We need to weave a third curse if we're going to secure attack power.

However, due to the load, at most two shots are the limit.

I used one blow earlier.

Given the number of times you run the risk of blindness,

And a blow.

"Crohiko, su-"

Mr. Cecily, who almost said something, reworded it.

"- Please."

"Yes, I've been entrusted"

I think I was probably trying to say "excuse me".

But I was kind of happy when they said, "Please."

Because as a trustworthy true companion, I felt like you were watching me.

"- Fifth curse, liberation."

Two sheets, add wings.

Another two giant wings grow from the ground behind them.

The orcs are frightened only for a moment by the emergence of wings that appear to have grown from the floor.

I stabbed Crazy Cherry Blossom in the first wing I put out.

Let me suck the wing blood - to increase the sharpness.

The first two wings shall be for blood suction.

I can't help the pain of running.

Accept.

The pain will not go away.

But I can tolerate it or accept it.

Let the left and right curse arms grip each of the mace and mall used by the dead and melted oak.

Two hands left.

On the left hand side, the Black Great Sword of the Seventh Curse.

On your right hand side, "Crazy Cherry Blossoms" that sucked blood.

Spread your wings.

Paired with the elbow ejection of the eighth curse arm - acceleration.

In less than a second, approaching the head of three heads.

The orcs were slightly late and looked up at me flying.

Then for a few seconds he bogged and moved to the one with Mr. Currier so as to switch his head.

Some of them also have protective species orcs in them.

It would be bone to deal with that number alone.

But if he does, he'll do it.

"Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Three heads that raise the roar of ripping silk.

Orbital area without eyeballs.

The central face is staring at me.

I can see that.

This guy was also able to react to my accelerated movement.

Breakthroughs due to speed are considered impossible from the beginning.

In short, three heads are fast.

Three heads ringing in the ear barrier attacked with a weapon gripped by eight arms.

I will attack with my left and right curse arms with those eight arms.

Indeed, the underlying abilities such as muscle strength and speed are high.

But - if you're attacking from eight places without any moves, you can handle it with two curseless arms!

"Ghh... Ghhhhhhhhhhh!

He saw me in front of him at the same time, with his left and right head barking and barking.

"I, the curse forbidden..."

Chant, start.

Three heads, at the same time.

Swing the sword of your left hand over the head of your left hand.

Shake the demon knife on your right hand side to the head on your right.

And

"Third curse, liberation"
