Chapter 213: The Spell Battle
When Tauro directly holds the cursed stone and chants dark magic, a black mist that is clearly visible erupts and entangles his body.
The sorcerer on the other side must be very skilled, because even after Tauro cast a spell to return the curse once, the sorcerer pushed back.
“The other side seems to be a real professional, so it won’t be easy to push him back. ……”
Tauro cast another spell.
Then, the black mist that was entwined around Tauro was sucked into the cursed stone and stayed there for a moment, and the next moment, it erupted all at once, and this time it was sucked into the gap in the ceiling.
The curse on Tauro was still there, but he paid it no mind and ran out of the store.
The black haze spread across the sky as if blending into the darkness that was beginning to darken, and disappeared in the direction of the mansion where the main culprit of the curse resides.
Then I hear the “voice of the world” in my brain.
Ad
“Confirmed one of the conditions for activating the special skill [&%$#] <Someone who sends back a large amount of magical power>. [Magic Manipulation] (Extreme) has been acquired.”
“For the time being, it looks like it’s a success… I remembered something… ‘Purification'”
Tauro lifted the curse on himself and drank a potion to restore his magic power, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
“Tauro! Are you okay?! I could feel something ominous moving out of here just now!”
Aeris and the others who had delivered the client, had just returned.
“It looked pretty bad, but are you okay?”
Ankh also seemed to sense it and came running over with his hand on his greatsword.
Ragune did the same and had already drawn her sword.
“Did you guys not see that?”
“What are you talking about?”
“A black haze-like ……”
Ad
“All I could see was a hint of it?”
Aeris nodded her head.
“I see, I just returned the curse to its sender.”
“““Returned it?”””
Aeris and the other three were puzzled, not understanding what Tauro meant.
I asked Aeris and the others, who had returned, to tell me as much information as possible they could get from the client’s mother in the store.
“According to Riryo-san’s mother, He encountered a local influential person who was having a dispute with someone he didn’t see on the outskirts of town, but when he noticed his presence, they left in a hurry, dropping the magic stone. The father who picked it up couldn’t give it to the other man because he was an influential person he didn’t get along with, so he kept it, and that might be the source of the trouble.”
“So he shared it with the neighbors.”
“Huh? Yes, that’s right. I heard that the father talked to one of his regular customers about it, but how did you know?”
Tauro told them what he had heard at the cursed master’s mansion.
Ad
“I’m sure that the main culprit is definitely that influential person. Ah, this magic stone seems to have a mechanism that requires magical power to unlock it, but I wonder if Aeris can unlock it?”
Tauro took the magic stone out of the magic storage and handed it to Aeris.
“Okay, I’ll try.”
Aeris nodded, accepted the magic stone, and began to try to unlock it.
“So, what were you talking about when you said you sent it back earlier?”
It seemed that Ankh and Ragune were still interested in the story that seems to be the source of the ominous signs.
“What was it?”
Tauro now explained the curse return.
“…… leader. Don’t be reckless, …….”
Ankh sighed in amazement.
Ragune concurred.
“We can’t protect you if you do that when we’re not here. Next time, please do it in our presence.”
She was worried about Tauro, to whom she owed a debt of gratitude.
“I’m sorry ……. I’ll be more careful next time.”
The serious tone of Ragune’s voice made Tauro honestly reflect on the situation.
“…… then does that mean the other spellcaster is in trouble right now because of the curse?”
Ankh said with a serious look on his face.
“Yes, that’s right. Depending on the situation, the people around them may have been harmed as well.”
“Did you return such a terrible curse!?”
Ragune was honestly surprised.
“The original curse was very powerful. The curse will be returned with more than double the curse, so if the caster over there didn’t take countermeasures against the curse, at best he would not be able to wake up again, at worst he would die instantly. I think the people around him would be under a pretty severe curse as well.”
“…… If he’s that good of a sorcerer, he might be involved with an assassination guild.”
Ankh mentioned the possibility.
“What would happen if it was dealt with?”
“Hmm. I feel like I’m going to feel like there’s no chance with that haze, but I might be exposed to a serious curse that makes me faint in agony.”
“…… Either way, it’s not going to be a free ride.”
Ragune was horrified and cowered her head
Thereupon
Then he heard a voice saying.
“I’ve got it unlocked. Now I’ll open the information.”
Ad
Aeris said holding up the magic stone toward the wall.
Then, a message was projected on the wall.
“…… …this is pretty bad, isn’t it?”
Ankh gulped at the contents displayed.
Tauro and the others were also stunned by the contents.
