Chapter 311.2: Curse of the Spirit People

The lazy-looking Eliza steps forward and observes the statue closely. I thought she said she wanted to take the jewel somewhere, but apparently, she hadn't left the Imperial Capital yet.

Because he has been petrified by a curse, purifying it should remove it Most likely. (Eliza)

Anthem, please take care of it. (Cry)

Umu (Anthem)

If I don't cure them before Franz-san comes back Leaving Luke aside, it would be troublesome in many ways if it became known that the Sword Saint (Kensei) got involved and got petrified.

After making a small nod at what I said, Anthem lifts his arms and casts a disenchantment spell.

His healing power, sharpened after many years of harsh adventure, pours down on the statues in the dojo. *Kirakira* Sparkling light permeates the gray statues. The mysterious sight took the breath away of the knights who had sealed off the dojo entrance. The transformation was immediate.

Starting from the place where the light touched them, the color of the swordsman's statues changed quickly. It took less than a minute to return them to normal from head to toe. Multiple people breathe at once. The swordsmen who have regained their flesh bodies staggered and kneel on the ground.

Hh Ha, ha, haa. (Swordsman 1)

Hh Ah I-I'm savedI thought I'd be a statue for the rest of my life (Swordsman 2)

The swordsmen took a deep breath and opened and closed their hands. They look like they are still shaken, but they seem to be alive. As expected of Anthem, you can count on him.

I am glad they are alive. Even though it wasn't me who directly did it, it would be bad for my sleep if anyone had died because of this. When I was stroking my chest in relief, Thawne, who had regained his color, came. As expected, compared to his student, he seems to be calm. He does not shrink at all in front of the towering Anthem and thanks us in a stifled voice.

You saved us I am grateful for that. I never thought such a technique existed in this world. To think it would be able to turn everyone's body to stone without warning, what a fearsome power. (Thawne)

Umu (Anthem)

A swordsman is someone who has high single-combat ability but is far inferior to a Magi in terms of responsiveness. It is no different no matter how much Mana Material a monstrous swordsman absorbs. If it had been Lucia or Sytry's "Teacher (Sensei)" who took the curse, would they have been able to stop it?

Anyway, I am part of the reason why they all turned to stone. I go between Anthem and Thawne-san and raise my voice in a hurry.

No, I am sorry for the delay in helping you. I didn't expect petrification (Cry)

As I *pekopeko* bow my head, Thawne-san's expression change from an apologetic expression directed to Anthem to a *niganiga* bitter expression.

I see By the way, I am sorry I didn't live up to your expectations, right? (Thawne)

His sharp gaze and voice straightened my spine. I opened my eyes widely. Huh? Could it be that you can hear everything even while you have turned into a statue?

I am glad I didn't call him incompetent or something like that.

N-no, no, it is understandable. The enemy was a pretty powerful curse, so I think it would be quite difficult to face it with a sword. Luke was also turned to stoneAnd now that everyone had been safely unpetrified, all's well that ends well. (Cry)

Hh What happened to that curse? (Thawne)

No, well, it was so-so (Cry)

Don't stare at me like that. If Thawne-san can't handle it, what kind of swordsman can?

Unable to bear that killing stare, I hid behind Anthem. But that is when Sytry shouted.

It's terrible. Luke-san hasn't recovered! Onii-chan! (Sytry)

!? Uuumu (Anthem)

I look over there in a panic. As Sytry said, Luke was still a statue. Even though he should have been thoroughly bathed in Anthem's Magic, not even one of his fingertips showed signs of recovery.

Anthem once again casts the spell to remove the curse. A white light that made you feel the majesty of God illuminated its gray body, andAfter all, nothing happened. Eliza sleighs forward and touches Luke's head.

He is under a very powerful curse. It is impossible for a human to break it. (Eliza)

It was Luke who offended the curse, he was the target. We were merely the aftermath. (Thawne)

Thawne-san frowns after saying this.

Really, to think it would be more cautious of Luke rather than the Sword Saint (Kensei), as expected of Luke. Well, that curse, was quite frightened by him

Eliza raises her head and looks at me with sleepy eyes.

Before the curse completely consumes his existence, we need to undo it. We need the help of a Spirit PeopleA special class Shaman. I just needed to go back, so you can come with me to our countryTo Yggdra. (Eliza)

In the end, we still need to borrow the power of a Spirit People Shaman Well, not like we have a choice, tho'.

And then, Lucia blinks her eyes at what  Eliza said.

But isn't the Spirit People's country terribly exclusive? I heard that humans aren't allowed inMoreover, Lapis and the others are planning to bring a Shaman here (Lucia)

The Spirit People's country. It is the number one country that people have heard of but have never actually been to. Of course, we have never been there either. I hear that spirit people are not so egocentric and have no interest in power, so even nobles and powerful merchants cannot enter so easily.

Since Lapis and the others are going to bring a Shaman here, wouldn't it be better to wait for them?

At Lucia's question, Eliza is silent for a moment, then shakes her head sideways.

If you have Shero's Cursed Stone, they will let you in. Besides, Luke needs immediate treatment. (Eliza)

Shero's cursed stone? (Lucia)

Lucia stares at me. Before she could say anything, I clapped my hands loudly.

Isn't this a blessing in misfortune. Alright then, let's quickly bring Luke's statue and have it healed. (Cry)

Well, if it weren't for that cursed stone, Luke would never have turned into a statue in the first placeWell, he has already turned into a statue, so there is no point in complaining about it. And as for that jewelry, it was Hugh who brought it. You have no reason to be angry at me. Well, I was the one who paraded them around the city tho'

Lucia frowns at me who tries to deceive her with a smile.

Why is it the same as always even though Luke turned into a statue, Leader? (Lucia)

It is just his body that turned into a statue. Luke is still Luke. (Cry)

I see Master~, that's deep. (Tino)

Uuumu. (Anthem)

Tino gives me a small shout of admiration as I pretend to be badass. It is not particularly deep. Normally, even I would be restless if one of us couldn't be cured of petrification.

It is just simply when I activated Round World, Luke's intentions were transmitted to me.

The sound that echoed from the statue of Luke Psykol said.

Cut the curse! Cut the curse! Cut the curse! Cut the curse! Cut the curse! Cut the curse!

With this, it would be harder to worry about Luke's state.

Thanks for reading! Lol at Thawne hearing Cry say that he was disappointed in him. And as everyone expected, what Luke is saying is about cutting the curse You can wonder how this is possible but remember that he got stronger by feeling the earth
