◈ Episode 583: Ancient Curse School (3)
Gariel’s face lit up at Cravat’s words.
“really?!”
“okay. She looks at this child’s condition and I think she knows why she came to me. Surely, if things continue like this, I won’t even be able to dream of a normal recovery.”
Cravat saw right away what Linne’s condition was.
If it had been anyone else, he wouldn’t have even known why she was asleep, but Cravat was different.
“In the first place, is this kid really a wizard?”
“What do you mean?”
Ludger asked Cravat’s question as if he were questioning it.
This is because I read a strange hint in the question.
“It’s because the power running wild inside my body is a little strange. Right now, the fire seems to have been temporarily extinguished by external forces, but even so, it is nothing more than a temporary solution. This power boiling inside will eventually destroy the owner himself.”
“I called you to solve that problem.”
“okay. “I guess I can guess what kind of condition this child is in since I found a day related to an ancient curse instead of looking for a famous priest or a healing potion.”
Gariel was the only one who could not understand the conversation between Ludger and Cravat.
Gariel asked Cravat what he meant and urged him to answer.
“No, so what happened to Line? “Why are you asking if I’m a wizard?”
“It’s because the power running wild inside this child’s body is divine power.”
“… … yes?”
For a moment, Gariel thought she had heard wrong.
The idea that the source of the power that destroyed Line’s body was divine power seemed somewhat like fiction.
“Divine power? But I don’t feel that kind of energy from Line at all, do I?”
“Of course. This is not a power that a typical paladin or priest uses. It is much more pure and clear than that. “To the extent that ordinary wizards cannot distinguish it from magical power.”
“Well, with that level of power, is there any high-ranking priest or saint involved?”
“I don’t know that far. Because I couldn’t see or hear what kind of past this child had. However, I think the power of those guys just mentioned might not be enough.”
Cravat stroked his chin with his fingers.
After hearing the explanation, Gariel still didn’t understand.
“Isn’t it good to have divine power? “Why on earth does Rine’s body have divine power, but it destroys this child’s body?”
“Just because it’s good doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good for your body. Just because a person has a lot of nutrients that the body needs doesn’t mean he or she is healthy. “If you overdo it, it becomes poisonous in the end.”
“How can that be…?” … .”
“The thing about power is that the more pure you are, the more blurred the line between good and bad becomes.”
Cravat’s eyes turned to Linne’s face, who was sleeping soundly.
Looking at the state of my body, it was not strange to feel in real time that my whole body was being torn into several pieces due to the pain.
I can’t believe I’m in a situation like this when I’m still young.
It was to the point where I felt like I had been abandoned by fate.
“Strong power is the purest and has no distinction between good and evil. It’s primal. “Poison can be used as medicine, and conversely, good medicine can also act as a fatal poison.”
“Then, Rine’s current condition is… … .”
“The powerful divine power is colliding with the person’s magical power and continues to erode it.”
The inside of Liné’s body was similar to a situation where water and oil were entangled and fighting each other.
No, can we call this water and oil?
The two just try not to mix with each other, but they don’t gnaw at each other and make a mess of the surroundings.
But this power of Line’s physical condition… … .
“Besides, this girl’s magic seems to be something very special. “If I’m not mistaken, it’s something I’ve never seen before.”
“Do you even know that?”
Cravat frowned at Ludger’s question as if his pride was hurt.
“What do you think of me? “Even though he looks like this, he has specialized medical knowledge and qualifications as a magic researcher.”
“For a warlock, that’s quite unusual.”
“under. What do you think of a curse? If you want to curse someone, you must prepare accordingly. “What kind of person the opponent is, he must consider everything from his constitution to his magic properties in order to use the optimal curse.”
“Well, is it that much?”
Cravat sent a cold glare towards Gariel, who was asking a puzzled question.
“Is the curse funny? uh? Is this funny! Anyway, ordinary wizards don’t know the depth and complexity of curses.”
“No, it’s because I’m terrible at other magic.”
“You can do basic magic!”
“I can’t do that.”
Instead, it was Ludger who answered.
“what?”
“The magic he learned is that kind of magic.”
Despite his youthful appearance and actions, Cravat immediately recognized the meaning behind those words.
“You said you used strange magic, but did you really mean that you were wasting all your magical talent and knowledge for just one type of magic? “Then I guess that shallow knowledge is understandable.”
“Thank you for understanding, but it’s still shallow knowledge… … .”
“joy. It’s a truly amazing combination. “One is a unique type of magic user whose identity is unknown, and the other is an archmage that has never been seen on the island.”
“Don’t you know me?”
Ludger looked puzzled and asked Cravat.
Still, his name and face must have been known, but from Cravat’s words, it seemed like he didn’t know anything about it.
“I don’t know! What do I need to know? “I stay on this island and only study curses.”
“Well, there’s no problem if you don’t know. So what do you think of Line’s condition now? Are you sure you can fix it?”
“Anyway, to continue the story from before, the fact that this girl has special magical powers can be seen as part of the problem.”
Although it was only a short period of time that he investigated Line, Cravat analyzed that her magical power was also unusual.
“If it were normal magical power, it would have been suppressed and destroyed by this powerful divine power. But rather, this magical power resists this primal, destructive force.”

“Resistance, you mean?”
“You try to push one side, and the other side continues to resist violently. With two forces fluctuating inside like that, there is no way a weak human body could withstand it.”
“Poetry, divine power! “Isn’t it okay to deal with the power of divine power?”
“how? Telling someone who fainted because they couldn’t control their energy to use it? “It’s a power I didn’t even know about in the first place, but now I can do it?”
“Well, that’s… … .”
“Besides, this divine power does not belong to this girl. Did you say it? This is a powerful blessing. It’s so powerful that it can now be called a curse. “It was as if I had been branded directly by God.”
Ludger trembled at those words.
However, neither Gariel nor Cravat noticed such a subtle reaction from Ludger.
“When you were young, your magical power had not yet fully blossomed, so you would not have had any problems with being suppressed by divine power. But as I grew up and learned magic, my magical power grew along with it, and I ended up at this point.”
“That can’t be possible.”
Gariel’s expression became confused.
As the teacher of Rine, whose memories were sealed, he taught her magic and supported her both materially and spiritually when she said she wanted to go to Seorn Academy.
The action may have been affection and favor shown to the daughter of the person he liked, but the result was not like that at all.
“If I hadn’t taught Rine magic, it wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
As Gariel looked at Lyne sleeping, she remembered the first time she met her.
-Who is your grandfather?
Rine, whose memories had been sealed, opened her eyes and saw Gariel dressed as an old man.
Perhaps because he deliberately wore a beard and disguised himself with an artifact to hide his identity, Liné believed that Gariel was an old man.
-I am your teacher.
In this way, Gariel became Linne’s guardian and teacher, teaching and raising her.
As Gariel learned time magic, she lost all talent for other magic.
However, the theoretical part of magic still remained in his mind.
Gariel made full use of that knowledge and taught Line.
In fact, there was no need to teach Rine magic.
Teaching magic was due to Gariel’s stubbornness.
This world is a tough place, and Line lost her mother, her only family member.
In order for her, a commoner, to survive in this harsh world, she needed at least the minimum strength to protect her body.
Gariel decided it was magic.
If you are a commoner who has learned magic, you will be treated well wherever you go.
If you don’t have talent, you can’t help it, but if you have talent, I thought it was natural to teach.
Fortunately or unfortunately, Liné had a talent for magic.
Although he had the disadvantage of not being able to properly handle his magical power, more than that, his understanding of magic and insight into theoretical knowledge were of a type that was difficult to find even in children of his age.
Gariel felt proud as a teacher when he saw that Liné knew two and three by teaching him one.
When Line became independent and went to boarding school, and then when she said she wanted to go to Seorn.
Gariel was worried but supported her.
I said so.
The truth that all of those actions were the cause of Linne’s constitution, pierced Gariel’s heart like a dagger.
at last.
Have I once again failed to protect my precious person?
“It’s all because of me… … .”
This is why there was no shame in seeing Rine’s dead mother.
As Gariel was about to lose his sense of self-destruction, Ludger’s sharp voice coldly awakened his sinking spirit.
“Why are you procrastinating by yourself?”
“… … This poisonous bastard. Even in this situation, are you just saying what you have to say? “Isn’t there such a thing as consideration?”
“That is what I will say. Are you saying it’s your fault that Line ended up like that? “That’s ridiculous.”
Ludger twitched the corners of his mouth and sneered at Gariel.
“It is I, the teacher, who taught Rine magic, summoned magic beasts, and taught her the entire process. “It’s not your fault that she ended up like that.”
It’s all my responsibility.
Even though he didn’t say it directly, Gariel felt that Ludger had said it.
“There seems to be some complicated relationship.”
Cravat clicked his tongue at the sight of those two people.
One person calls himself a teacher, and the other person calls himself a teacher.
‘I can’t believe I had such unusual wizards as teachers. ‘What kind of life has this child lived?’
Cravat’s admiring gaze turned to Rine.
Even just looking at her sleeping soundly, she was a delicate and beautiful girl who reminded me of a princess somewhere.
The power he possesses is special, and the situation he is experiencing is not something we see often.
It truly seemed like the product of the world’s love coming together and coming together.
I thought that maybe the fact that I met those two people and was called here was a guide to some kind of trend.
Well, that’s not the point.
Since I said I would do it, I was going to do my best to get rid of the sacred power that was eating away at Line’s body.
“There is only one way. “It’s about getting rid of the divine power running rampant in this girl’s body.”
The problem was that this was not just divine power.
“It’s such pure divine power. Well, I haven’t lived that long, but this is my first time seeing something like this. “When power is so pure, it doesn’t feel much different from magic.”
If the non-attribute magical power and divine power had not clashed with each other in Linne’s body, Cravat would still not have known.
“To suppress this level of divine power, a special-level curse is needed.”
“Extra large grade?”
“It is a curse that cannot be reached with modern curses. The original curse. It is a curse that goes beyond simply material things and causes the conceptual part to rot and be cut out. “It takes that much of a curse to cure this.”
“Do you know how to use it?”
“Are you afraid I may have said a curse I don’t even know how to use? But I’m not completely sure it’s me. Even if we do, the probability cannot be said to be 100%.”
“What is the probability of success?”
“Exactly half and half. “Even that was assuming that I was in the best condition, saying that I had enough media and materials for the curse.”
“Now, wait a minute. The chance of being cursed is only half. “What kind of super-level curse is that?”
“The curse itself is 100% effective as long as you use it. “The reason the probability goes down to half is because the girl’s body contains divine power.”
Divine power and curse are truly contradictory energies.
Just as a curse can damage divine power, divine power can also damage a curse.
If Cravato uses a curse, the divine power will immediately move to erase the curse.
“From now on, it is completely a race against time. “You have to bring all the ingredients.”
“It’s an ingredient needed for a special grade curse, so it’s probably not an ordinary one.”
“okay. Not just one or two. “There are many things that are necessary and even very rare.”
Gariel asked with a somewhat serious expression.
“Where on earth are we going to find those precious ingredients in such a short period of time?”
It was Cravat who smiled at those words.
“why? “It’s very close.”
“Are you saying it’s nearby?”
Cravat raised his finger and pointed out the window.
Beyond the glass window, beyond a street filled with pure white steam, I could see a huge tower rising high.
“All the ingredients will be there.”
“Oh, no, now… … .”
Gariel asked as if trying to deny the thoughts that came to her mind.
“… … “Let’s rob the magic tower?”
