Curse Return: Do I have to be a spellcaster as a member of the Heilongjiang Ministry?

"Humanity's fear comes from the unknown and from the inability to resist."

Everywhere he could see was broken. Atobe Kageze carefully avoided the scope of the temple and stood on the periphery to look at it.

Following Honglong's low-pitched threat, the collapsed temple suddenly disappeared completely as if it were a phantom, as if the traces of its existence had been wiped away by an unknown object.

"There." Without Xia Youjie's reminder, Atobe Jingze also saw an illusory phantom near Honglong, which was like an effect projected by 3D technology.

The super-grade curse spirit's body is like a red-crowned crane, resembling a crane. It has only one eye on the top of its head and a patch of bright red at the end of the eye. It has a long beak and its feathers are pure white, but its claws are short and thin. .

"Don't you pray?"

It floated lightly in the air, ignoring the pressure of Honglong, and passed over Xia Youjie who was standing in front. It looked straight at Atobe Jingze with its cold and waveless single eye, and asked again: " Don’t you pray?”

"I have no wish and need your help." Atobe Keizawa answered it.

"Humanity's fear comes from the unknown and from the inability to resist."

"As long as you pray, I can grant your wish."

"Obviously it's just a curse spirit, but your tone is quite serious?" Atobe Kagezawa exclaimed in surprise, then turned to look at Xia Youjie, and asked sincerely: "It's also a special grade, what do I wish for your bangs?" Wouldn’t it be useful too?”

"It's impossible. Stop thinking about it. You will never get an early night's sleep in your life." Xia Youjie pretended to be thinking.

"...Climb for me."

"Why not? You don't have to pay any price." The special curse spirit asked puzzledly.

"But you will take away the lives of my relatives, right?" Atobe Kagezawa sneered.

"A life is worth a life, the most important thing is that you can survive." The bird-like curse spirit suddenly realized something, and his voice became clear: "I know you humans like face, and no one will do this. Know……"

"Shut up, curse spirit." Atobe Kagezawa retracted his teasing gesture, his cold eyes seemed to be filled with frost, and his voice was pierced with ice: "The guy who treats life and death as a gift from the gods, hurry up Go to hell for me.”

"Oh, you're not going to hell, you're just a meal."

Atobe Jingze suppressed the urge to clean up its claws and gave Xia Youjie a look that said he was giving you extra food.

There was no smile in the eyes of the conjurer with a round head. The curse spirit playing with life and death accurately stepped on his bottom line. His anger rolled up his heart like waves one after another.

"That's it."

Xia Youjie stretched out his hand, and the magic spell was activated instantly!

The special-grade cursed spirit seemed to be forcibly brought into a whirlpool of cursed power. It showed no resistance and condensed into a dark ball of cursed power within a few seconds. Xia Youjie stepped forward to recover it. He shook the newly acquired cursed spirit Pokémon. The dream turned around, and the realm of life burst open——

Returning to the defeated shrine once again, the two teenagers looked at each other and smiled.

The special abilities of super-level curse spirits are extremely rare, but their physical strength is worth mentioning. Xia Youjie put the curse ball into his pocket and said first: "It's getting late, shall we go back?"

"what."

The two of them walked out together, and the way back was still the long shrine with the stone lantern. It was obvious that they had won a great victory, but the atmosphere between the two seemed to have become a little depressed.

Xia Youjie suddenly asked: "Those people know that they are using their own blood relatives to make wishes, right?"

"I think you should know." Of course Atobe Keizawa knew that the person praying knew the price, because he himself knew it.

"I don't understand why they..."

"Don't explore people you can't understand, don't promise things you can't change. Although this is just my personal opinion." Atobe Jingze interrupted Xia Youjie's confusion, "Human beings are the most difficult to understand, don't try in vain To understand everyone.”

Hearing this, Xia Youjie couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't want to understand everyone, but his usual inherent concepts began to waver.

He has always regarded "protecting ordinary people" as his survival goal, and his powerful spell skills are his means of saving people in the world. However, the reality is that he has seen the "ordinary people" he protected causing bad consequences time and time again.

As a result, he began to doubt the significance of saving the weak.

"For you, the act of praying is abandoning your family, but for the people who were prophesied, they are just asking for survival." Atobe Keizawa replied indifferently.

It's just a matter of survival. If you put on the shell of survival, everything becomes logical, and even the stolen life becomes a 'gift from the gods'.

"Now that we know our fate, can't we avoid death through other methods?" Xia Youjie became a little excited, and he clenched his hands.

Atobe Keizawa stared at the stone steps at his feet, breathing evenly and not seeing any abnormalities. There were no other outsiders at this time, and his straight back relaxed slightly. After a while, he slowly said: "There is a saying that Worshipers need to walk along the side of the shrine, entering from one side and exiting from the other side, in order to maintain respect for the gods. If they do this, the gods will bless the worshipers."

"...Are we talking about this now?"

"I will do whatever is useful, no matter how much." Atobe Kagezawa quietly moved his gaze to the front. The ancient tree with its lush branches and leaves that shaded the sky was like a monster's bloody mouth.

His calm expression seemed to be filled with thousands of thoughts, but at least he still looked so peaceful: "But even if you always remain respectful to the gods, sometimes death cannot be avoided, let alone knowing that danger is coming, but unable to avoid it." Avoidable.”

"..."

"So you see, isn't praying the easiest way?"

……

"Natsuyou-san! Atobe-san! Are you okay—"

The cursed spirit was captured by Xia Youjie, and the realm of life that lost its master was broken, and the tent also dissipated.

Knowing that the danger was over, the auxiliary supervisor ran towards the two conjurers with both legs in his arms. Their figures got closer and closer, and the conversation between the two came to an abrupt end.

"We are fine. The curse spirit has been resolved, but I will trouble you for the follow-up work." Xia Youjie swallowed his confusion and put on that mask-like smile again.

"That's good, that's good, you are not injured!" The auxiliary supervisor nodded repeatedly, his hands and feet were so confused that he didn't know where to move.

"Not at all, don't worry."

As the auxiliary supervisor returned to the starting point of the torii, the two ordinary people who were arrested after going up the mountain privately were still handcuffed and placed under the big tree.

The assisting police officers have not yet withdrawn. Except for those who gathered together in twos and threes to discuss something, the rest scattered around to guard the outside of the tent.

Although the things inside the dark cover frightened them, everyone was obviously more relaxed when they saw the two conjurers coming back safe and sound.

It was obviously not the first time that the auxiliary supervisor had business dealings with the middle-aged police officer in charge, and the two of them got along relatively comfortably. He relaxed and thanked him for his hard work, and informed them that the problem on the mountain had been dealt with, and everything that followed was Everyone can close the team.

Just as everyone was putting their hearts back into their bodies, the middle-aged man under the ancient tree suddenly stood up. He was handcuffed and leaning on the trunk of the tree, swaying as if he was drunk.

He rushed up, grabbed the assistant supervisor by the collar, and asked sternly:

"What did you do!! You bastards-"
