77 – I can’t think of a balance sheet – 2

It was around dawn when the clean-up was finished.

Veronica looked quite tired, so we decided to take a rest for a day and then proceed with the Haeju work.

“Kuhmm. But that… Do I have to have Cardinal Veronica?”

“Why would you bring someone who doesn’t need me?”

A priest is required for this achievement. That’s why Veronica should be there.

Cecil sighed heavily as she looked at me with wide eyes, as if Veronica was uncomfortable.

“Being a friend of a friend was more awkward than I thought.”

“Do you have any intention of becoming friends?

“I don’t think you’ll be willing to do that.”

“okay?”

Well, since the Principality is a country that values magic, it is inevitable that they will have to distance themselves from the Church.

With the Black Rebel event, Veronica became a true leader of the church. Even if the Pope, who is the top, does not do it, Veronica is the protagonist of this work.

So, it was only natural that the various interests created by bringing down the pope would be transferred to the Inspection Department and the Inquisitors in charge of her.

The one with the strongest power in the church.

And the tower of a country that values magic.

It’s only natural that the two of you can’t be friends.

Of course, I had no intention of forcing people who disliked each other to be friendly.

Basically, I mean, everyone knows what to do.

As long as it doesn’t cause problems.

“But you seem to be quite close with Cardinal Veronica?”

“Because we are best friends.”

“Because he’s a best friend… I’m envious of that. How can I do that?”

“Can’t we just get to know each other for a long time and then help each other regardless of profit?”

Cecile’s eyes trembled. why. Do you want to be friends too?

I smiled at her and turned to Veronica’s room.

“Anyway, see you tomorrow. Take a bath and wait. And take a long vacation. It’s not like a day or two to do it.”

“Grunt. Okay.”

Cecile seemed to have something more to say, but did not open her mouth. When I broke up with her and entered the room, Veronica, dressed in a comfortable outfit, was waiting for me.

Aren’t you too comfortable?

“What are you looking at?”

She had her long silver hair tied in a ponytail, a tank top that barely showed her belly button, and short shorts that showed off her thighs.

It wasn’t as good as the bikini she had worn before, but it was also quite revealing.

“Why? Did you fall in love?”

With her big breasts sticking out all the way, her butt pulled out, she spoke tempting words in a seductive posture.

Of course, it’s a shocking enough look.

Except for the fact that his face turned red because he was embarrassed.

I snorted at Veronica, and she hesitated, put on a cardigan, and sat down at the table.

“Thank you for your help. I’ll have to say thank you again.”

“It’s okay. I’m asking you to help me too.”

“hehehe~.”

Conceited, Veronica grabbed a bottle of wine that appeared to have been set aside for guests. And take a sip without even pouring into the glass. Then he glanced at me and held out a bottle of wine.

“Would you like a sip too?”

“You want me to put a cup and cook some soup?”

“Before, I drank like this in the storage room of the convent. Unless it’s a heavy seat, I feel comfortable drinking like this.”

Then take another sip. A drop of red wine trickled down her white neck and slightly seeped into the deep gorge between her large breasts. I took out my handkerchief and held it out.

“Cardinal. Have a good drink. It’s all spilled.”

“Achacha. Thank you~”

Receiving a handkerchief, she gently wiped the wine left on her skin. Then, casually put it in the pocket of your shorts.

“Why does it go in there?”

“Huh? Ah. I’ll wash this and give it to you.”

“Can’t we just leave it to the servant here?”

“Uh, uh uh? No. That. Yes! Yes, but! But! I wrote it, so I have to wash it!”

“What are you so upset about?”

After scolding Veronica for talking hastily, I chewed on the cookie that was placed as a snack.

so silence for a while.

I thought about what I had to do in the future, and Veronica, who sat down on the bed as if she couldn’t overcome the silence, opened her mouth first.

“So? What are you going to do now?”

“There are steps in Haeju work. The first is to check the body of the cursed person.”

“…Ah. Is that right? To do that with Princess Cecil?”

“I guess so? By the way, I have to be naked.”

“…Wouldn’t it be okay for someone else? Well, how to say. A woman who hasn’t even been married. It’s a little bit like seeing the naked body of a person like a princess… isn’t it?”

“But it’s better to do this with the person most affected by the curse.”

“Euuuwuuuwuuuwuuuwuuuwuuuwuuuwuuu… Yes. What did you know. And?”

“The dragon’s curse leaves a mark on the body. It remains in the form of a specific scar, and through that scar, the location of the curse’s medium can be specified.”

“Do you know where it is?”

“I don’t know. It’s because the location of the scar is determined when you look at it.”

It was the same in game. If it had been decided, he would have finished everything and told Cecile.

“Then you have to see it after all…”

“That’s right. If you spray this medicine on the scars that are the marks of the curse and use your holy power, you’ll be able to pinpoint the exact location, right?”

“Ah. That.”

He showed me the medicine made with the ingredients I bought earlier. Veronica, who looked at the golden vial for a while as if curious, gave it back without thinking.

Since he is not particularly good at magic, he does not know how precious this medicine is.

I have no intention of telling you anything, so let’s just keep it shut.

“The accuracy of the location varies depending on the Holy Power, so you should help. Anyway, you have higher Holy Power than me.”

“Yeah. Leave it to me. Then? After that?”

“Then… I’ll tell you tomorrow.”

Depending on where you are, you have to decide whether to go alone or in a group.

The next day, the knights of the Bikini Knights opened the door and came in. After being guided by them, it was a middle-aged man with an impressive mustache who greeted me and Veronica in Cecil’s room.

Lebanon Claudia.

A person who is Cecil’s uncle and wants his daughter to become the next duke.

As soon as he saw me, he openly frowned.

“I heard that the sage is very great, but I didn’t know that he could even lift the curse of the Claudia family.”

“Are you praising me?”

Of course not.

I smiled one more time at the man who was wearing a sh*t-chewed expression.

He gritted his teeth at my million-dollar smile and walked away with wild steps.

“Why are you like that?”

“Do you know what the Claudia family curse is?”

“I don’t know the details.”

“People with the scars of the curse die before reaching the age of 35.”

“…uh?”

“The dragon’s curse doesn’t apply to everyone in the Claudia family. The dragon’s curse is a kind of status ailment, but if you get it, your magical power generation rate and basic potential increase significantly. Just like that scar.”

So the potential for growth increases, but the problem is the penalty.

Life expectancy is drastically reduced, and when scars are revealed, it raises stress along with a huge decrease in favorability of the surroundings.

Just by being nearby.

“…That’s… Wait a minute. Then, the cursed Princess Cecil…”

“In the past, Cecil would not have been able to become the duke. But Cecil rose to the title of duke with her own abilities.”

“…that’s amazing.”

“right?”

I thought as I held the antique doorknob.

Thanks to that, I was able to eat my achievements raw.

For this, I am grateful to the manufacturer.

“Then, if you do Haeju, will Prince Cecil become weak?”

“Isn’t it?”

I remembered a memory from the game. Even though Cecil had been cursed, she was still an excellent magician.

-Kiik.

When the door opened, Cecile and the two knights she had seen before were standing inside, wearing only a gown and clearly looking displeased. As soon as she saw me, Cecile cleared her throat and then laughed, but the disgust remained on her face.

“Then why is Leubang like that…”

“If I curse, it will be difficult for my daughter to become a princess.”

It was Cecil who rose to the throne only with her own abilities, despite not being able to become the princess.

But what if the curse is lifted? He will solidify his position as king, and then his daughter’s becoming king may be in the distant future, or even impossible.

So it’s limiting.

It was because the sage, who was famous on the continent, came to give Haeju himself, not an unknown stranger.

“…there may be interference.”

“Don’t worry about that.”

Perhaps overhearing our conversation, Cecile spoke leisurely. But holding on to the sofa really didn’t feel right.

“All you have to do is curse, so don’t worry about anything else.”

“Okay. I’ll leave that part to you. Alright… then.”

I said with my arms crossed.

“Take it off.”

“……”

Silence fills the room. Cecile also seemed a little taken aback, and the knights next to her were even more taken aback.

If I hadn’t told her, maybe Veronica would have been too.

“Ehh. I’ll do it. I. Uh… Um. The sage will be looking back, so can you take off your clothes?”

“…No. It doesn’t matter…”

Glancing. Cecil, who was watching me, ran her hands over her thick gown several times before finally loosening the straps. In that pure white naked body.

“…Five.”

Starting from the breastbone to the private parts.

It was full of black hideous wounds.

Cecile, revealing scars resembling a ferocious dragon, smiled awkwardly after scratching her cheeks.

“It’s not like you’d think anything sinister about a body like this. I know how these scars look to others. It’s okay to vomit or curse at me. I understand.”

It is a voice full of self-deprecating emotions. Cecile was so depressed that anyone could tell, so I shook my head.

“Are you underestimating me? I say ‘possible’.”

“…the taste is really unique.”

Cecil shook her head in bewilderment, but she seemed to be in a better mood. It is fortunate that the clown’s skill, ‘low-level joke’, which lowers the target’s stress and relieves the mood, works well.

“……”

However, Veronica felt bad, perhaps affected by the traces of the curse!

In addition, the effect of the clown’s joke, which is offensive to people other than the target, is applied to make them feel worse!

The effect is amazing. sh*t.

“…Stop talking nonsense, shall we begin?”

In response to the sharp reaction, I lightly patted Veronica on the shoulder. If I don’t release this, I’ll be pissed off for a few more days.

“My friend. You are also ‘possible’.”

“Kuhm.”

She finally calmed down a bit. It’s hard to match the real atmosphere.

When the atmosphere warmed up a little by joking around like that, I handed out the medicine bottle to Veronica.

“If I apply this, the curse on the scar will exert its power?”

“yes.”

“At that time, the curse must be quenched with holy power. Judging from the state, it looks quite strong, so be careful. I will support you.”

I heard the Divine Mark that Veronica gave me before. After that explanation, Veronica applied a lot of medicine to her hands and slowly.

He placed his hand on Cecil’s chest, which was nothing compared to Veronica.

“yes….!”

“…What is it? That female voice?”

“…Ah, a female?! This is…! What a mess!”

Cecile was uneasy. Those emotions can affect the curse, so you need to release them as much as possible. That’s why I tried to get her to feel something other than melancholy by using ‘low jokes’.

In the meantime, Veronica, who had been using her holy power to suppress the curse, bit her lip.

“Ugh…!”

Beads of sweat began to flow from Veronica and Cecile.

It had to be.

Because the scars, the traces of the curse, started to react.

“Aww!!”

Not the same female voice as before, but a moan of clear pain. I placed my hand on Cecil’s forehead, which was already wet with sweat, and recited a prayer.

“The glory of God in the heavens. On earth, he protects the peace of his loved ones…”

As the prayers were recited, holy power enveloped Cecil’s body. Cecil’s expression improved, but the burden on Veronica and I increased.

Anyway, it’s a dragon-related curse.

I can’t help but curse you like this.

“This…!”

How many times did he apply the medicine and memorize prayers using holy power?

Dull scars resembling black tattoos began to settle on Cecile’s smooth abdomen. Based on the shape, I identified the location as quickly as possible.

Let’s see…

This is…

“It’s okay. Good work. Veronica.”

“Ha… ha… ha…”

As the rather alluring Veronica, with her long silver hair clinging to her forehead, collapsed into a chair, I patted Cecil up and said,

“I found the location where the medium of the curse is located.”

“…where… is it?”

I raised my finger at Cecile’s question.

“… Huh? Where?”

“Here underground. There is a medium deep in the capital of the principality, the underground water.”

“Whoa… at least… fortunately? Then? What is the medium? What else do I need to do to figure it out?”

“No. I know that.”

It’s just that the location changes, nothing changes.

“The devil’s heart. We must catch the devil sleeping deep in the water and destroy its heart.”

“…What? Ah, a demon? But I heard that… a demon is very powerful…”

I laughed.

The devil is not strong.

still.

“It’s weaker than a dragon.”
