The Path of the Master's Development

Chapter 68 The Center of the Curse

Finally, Edward was appeased, and Lucius and the others also waited for Isaac and Rein who had arrived late.

By the way, they used Edward as bait for this operation, so they were embarrassed to tell his uncle elf, so the former devil and elf were still sleeping.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the group of "classmate principals" were staring at them. Lein was pure-minded and didn't respond, thinking that they were waiting for the result of the curse, but Isaac looked at the group of people with a half-smile: "You're all very energetic. You don't want to sleep after working for half the night?"

Lucius sternly said with a bad joke: "My thirst for knowledge is burning."

Edward was still sobbing.

George spread his hands: "The sooner it is resolved, the better."

——He is still waiting to participate in the inter-school competition to give the priest school a good look.

Xiluta said that whether it is sleeping or discussing, Master Isaac can do whatever he says, without any second thoughts.

However, all the reasons could not be worth a look from Rein, so Isaac obediently sat down next to Rein, and began to host this late-night seminar as the first relationship person.

Isaac first recounted the situation of the two nights, and then analyzed bit by bit.

"Judging from the dialogue between Spider Woman and Edward, this curse can only be planted by those who meet the conditions."

The first condition is undoubtedly the elves.

The second condition, as you can see from Isaac and Rein, is to attack the cursed person, regardless of race or identity.

As for whether there is a third or fourth... During the day, George had already inquired at the place of residence. Except for the elves, there seemed to be no abnormal deaths. I died of old age after being trapped for too long.

——In such a ghostly place, even the strong can affect the state of mind.

So you can basically think that the spider curse only has these two conditions.

"Then why are we trapped here?" Xiluta frowned. As a conjurer, he knew a little more about curses.

A normal curse would only target the same group, but this curse clearly targeted two types of objects.

The curse that traps them here is for everyone, and the spider's curse is obviously for elves and attackers.

He had never seen such a curse.

——This does not comply with the rules of the curse.

George touched his chin: "Unless there is more than one curse here, the curse of the spider woman who scared little Edward to death is aimed at elves and those who attacked her, and what traps us is another curse or enchantment or magic."

Lucius nodded, "It is reasonable to speculate that the facts should not be far behind."

On the other hand, Isaac and Rein looked at each other tacitly—they thought of the same person.

Except for George and his party (suspected) who were sent by the Book of Omniscience, everyone here was sent here inadvertently when they were going to the heaven.

They originally guessed that there was something wrong with the heavenly realm, but now it seems that there is not only a problem with the heavenly realm, but also a big problem.

Why prevent the strong from going to heaven?What secrets are hidden in the heavens—they originally went to the heavens to find the holy dragon in the sky, but now it seems... Maybe Inskel himself is hiding in the heavens, doing some tricks.

The others didn't know what Isaac and Rein were thinking, but after speculating that the spider's curse was not helpful for solving the problem, George lazily put his hands behind his head and said happily, "In this case, the spider and us It doesn't matter, right? Concentrate on finding a way to get out...how...how about it?"

—Line was smiling at him.

——The upright and kind-hearted baby Rein is smiling at him.

George's whole body trembled, and he planned to change his words immediately.

But before he changed his words, someone had already said faster and more doggedly than him: "How can this work, how can we turn a blind eye to this curse that kills people!"

Isaac spoke righteously, partly because he knew that Rein would never ignore it, and partly... how could he forget that the curse stamped Rein without authorization? !

The narrow-minded demons have always held grudges!

George silently rolled his eyes at His Majesty's dog-legged behavior in his heart, and nodded desperately: "Yes, yes, I was just joking, just joking! You see, Edward's uncle is still cursed, we will definitely solve it It's - this kind of harmful thing, we must solve it!"

Edward, who felt that he was inexplicably lying on the gun: "..."

"We should start with the curse of the spider. Assuming that what traps people here is also a curse, there can be no relationship between these two curses." Xiluta analyzed with a professional attitude.

"Curses and curses also affect each other. I suspect that the person who cast the curse that trapped us did not choose this place at random. He may have hidden his curse behind the first curse. If Spider-Girl is not lifted Curse cannot find the second curse."

——So the conclusion is that the curse of Spider-Woman must be lifted.

Everyone turned their eyes to Edward.

"No no no no no! I won't do it I can't I can't handle that!"

His Royal Highness the Elf Prince immediately screamed like a chick seeing an eagle, shaking his head and waving his hands desperately while screaming, resolutely not to be the bait again!

He didn't guarantee that he wouldn't run away in stealth when facing that face again!

But poor student Edward obviously forgot one thing - among the members of this school, he has always been at the bottom of the food chain, and he has no right to speak at all.

——Look, the others are already gearing up and laughing at Edward... Hehe.

As for the conscientious Lein among the crowd—his beautiful blue eyes are so sincere that even if he says that the sun in the sky is square, you will feel that you are the one who doesn't distinguish between the square and the circle.

But at this moment, he blinked his sincere blue eyes and said seriously: "Don't worry, Edward, we will protect you."

——No no no no no help ah ah ah ah ah! ! !

※※※

"Is that so? Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Edward lying on the ground said tremblingly.

"Don't worry, you can't be wrong." Xiluta fidgeted on the ground, "I asked Lord Kadoran and the Elf uncle, your change of appearance is also a kind of curse, but there is nothing negative about it other than appearance. It's just an effect."

——That's right, in order for Edward, who can talk to Spider-Woman, to meet the conditions for the curse, these crazy guys want Edward to restore his elf status.

"But..." Edward felt that Xiluta's preparations were a bit familiar - isn't this the method used to undo the curse on Isaac last time? !

Apart from being undressed and muddy, even the black skull wand that Xiluta took out was very familiar.

Can this really not go wrong? !

"Relax, Edward, it's just for a while." Siluta patted Edward's forehead, anyway, Edward couldn't see his face clearly, and he didn't bother to change the wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, "Think about what you owe me If you dare to mess with the money, the interest will be increased by [-]%."

Edward immediately froze into a dead fish.yes

——You have already collected [-]% of the profit, Xiluta!

The elf prince sadly felt that if he continued like this, he would definitely become the first His Royal Highness prince who was kicked out by the elves because of too much debt.

"That's right." The young Patriarch of the Faoz family said with a smile, "Anyway, the worst thing is that you find out that you have become a female elf. Don't worry."

At the same time that Edward was almost jumping up in fright, Siluta's magic was activated, and a long, weird syllable flowed out of Siluta's mouth without hindrance, surrounding Edward, almost making him drowsy.

After the incantation was finished, there was no flash or special effect, and Siluta neatly put away his wand: "Okay."

The surrounding audience stepped forward to look at Edward, and then made a suspicious "cut" sound.

——It’s a pity that she didn’t become a girl.

Apart from the elongated ears and the slight adjustment of the whole person's face, exuding a mysterious atmosphere, there is no big change between the elf prince Edward and the human Edward, at most, the skin has improved.

But there are rough guys around, no one cares about it.

"Siluta, why hasn't he woke up yet?" Rein, who finally stepped forward, glanced worriedly, and asked the pseudo-loli standing beside him.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the elf lying on the ground jumped up while screaming.

"I don't want to be a woman!"

Crowd: ...

——What kind of mysterious aura is indeed nonsense.

The other party is that Edward!

Sure enough, it's still a joke!

On the third night, Edward, who had failed to resist, was nailed to death outside the cabin by a group of people like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey.

This time they told Edward's uncle the plan of action—but they didn't know if it was because of the curse. Although everyone had prepared him in advance, he still fell asleep.

So the former Demon King said that it is better to stay and take care of the elves because he is weak in combat power.

Lucius: Just say that you are a nerd and don't have much energy, and you don't want to run out of the house in the middle of the night and you might get into a fight.

Cardolan: Unfilial son!

When Xixi Suo Suo's voice sounded again, Spider Woman appeared in front of Edward.

"You...are an elf."

"I-I-"

Classmate Edward didn't dare to look at the other's face, so he could only stare at his feet desperately to resist the urge to sneak away - if he really did this, he might be caught by those wolf-like "classmates" behind him. Beat to death!

Countless tiny red spiders gushed out from Spider Woman's hem, crawling towards Edward.The elf prince looked at the spiders and his mind went blank, unable to remember any prepared lines.

Of course his first reaction was to run away, but as long as he thought of five heads staring at him behind the thin door panel, Edward would be ashamed - isn't it a spider? !Why on earth is he, an elf who lives in the forest, afraid of spiders? !

——It happened back then when I was a child.

Edward was actually an idiot when he was a child, well, anyone has been an idiot when he was a child, but Edward is a little bit uglier-because he was born with face blindness and couldn't see other people's faces clearly, so he was even more ignorant.

Until one day he got into a catastrophe and seriously injured his father.

He has no memory of what happened that day. It should be that the enemies of the elves invaded the forest—he only remembered the dense spiders, those eight-legged, ugly creatures crawling on his father who was protecting him, although the mother and the elves The members of the sacrificial group arrived soon, but the father still fell into an eternal sleep because of the spider poison.

The dense spiders gradually climbed up Edward's body, just like his father who stood in front of him at that time. Although he couldn't see his father's face clearly, his father's comforting voice was very gentle. Even if he was bitten by a spider, his father still treated him well. Said, "Don't be afraid, Edward."

His Royal Highness the Elf Prince suddenly remembered that when discussing the plan today, Uncle Dolan patted his head and said the same thing - "Don't be afraid."

——Father has always missed Uncle Dolan, his only brother.

——He wants to bring Uncle Dolan back to the Elven Forest!

——Women are worthy of respect, whether they are young women or old women are the precious wealth of the world, as a gentleman, we must treat all women equally and treat each other fairly!

"Do you hate elves too?" Edward repeated "The Bard's Law of Love" a hundred times in his heart, and finally mustered up the courage to look directly at the spider woman who looked like an old lady, and said softly and naively.

"I hate elves..." Spider-Woman murmured, "Yeah...of course I hate elves...Elves should die, you're an elf so you should die—"

"I think the elf forest is very beautiful." Edward didn't care about Spider Woman's death remarks, but looked at the other party gently, even if the other party was just an ugly old woman in his eyes, "But the elves living in it are a bunch of idiots. "

"The elf forest...the warm sunshine, the shining green trees..." Spider Woman looked at Edward fiercely, "but I lost all of them!"

"I lost it too." Edward said lowly, "I ran away from there, and I can never go back to my home."

Although the spiders were still crawling around his feet and body, the feeling of eagerness to catch their prey suddenly disappeared.

"……Ran away?"

"Well, I did something bad, so I ran away. And you, if you miss the Elven Forest, why don't you go back?"

"Go back? Go back to where?" Spiderwoman looked at Edward blankly. The elf in front of her was different from the elf she cursed and killed before. This elf could move, talk, and smile at her——no one saw her Will smile at her, there is only fear and terror in their eyes.

Edward's voice was softer: "Go home."

"Home...? By the way, I have a home...I want to go home..." Spider Woman looked at Edward with a charming smile on her face, "You don't have a home anymore... why don't you go home with me..."

Spider-Woman held out her hand to Edward.

Looking at it with normal eyes, this picture is beautiful and tempting enough, but in Edward's eyes, there is only the face with withered and gray hair with few strands left.

Even so……

Edward put his hand on Spider-Woman's.

"Okay."

He felt his body lifted slightly, and he didn't need to walk by himself, and the spiders swarmed them away.

People peeking behind the door: "..."

George lowered his voice and asked, "Are they gone?"

"gone."

"Huh—" Several people let out a long breath and sat on the ground.

"Edward... We underestimate him too much. In time, this guy is absolutely limitless!"

Rein glared at George: "Try to see if you can still sense his existence, don't lose track of him!"

Isaac looked towards West Tower.

Xiluta nodded: "Don't worry, Lord Isaac, the contract is connected, and the priority is higher than all curses, and they will not be eliminated."

Lucius glanced outside the calm door: "Catch up now?"

——If you don’t chase after this time, when will you wait?Waiting for Edward to marry the female spider as the prince and concubine?

Isaac nodded: "Chasing."

※※※

There was darkness around Edward, and he felt himself walking through layers of dirt.

The soil smelled of decay and blood, and it was unknown how many people had been buried.

In the end they landed on a giant spider web.

After getting down from the spider web, Edward saw the empty coffin in the middle of the ground at a glance—a huge spider was carved on the coffin, so detailed that it was so fake that it almost made him scream.

After coming to this place, many spiders crawled out of various small holes in the ground and gathered on Spider Woman in an endless stream, making her look more lively.

"You are the second elf to come here." Spiderwoman sat on the coffin and looked at Edward with a smile.

"Is this your home?"

"Yes, this is also where I eat."

Edward suddenly found that there were more red spiders around, almost covering the entire ground.

"Do you know what a spider means?"

There was no need for Edward to answer, Spider-Woman continued on her own.

"Ugly, jealous, cruel, greedy. I like you very much, so I won't mark you with something like a curse, and then let you die slowly - I will eat you directly."

Edward couldn't help but took two steps back, pressing his back against the wall.

"Uh... can't we discuss it?"

"No." Spider-Woman replied quite simply, "Time will change everything, if you become someone I don't like, then I will never get the you I like--the only way now is you It's completely mine."

Following her voice, the spiders began to try to climb on Edward, as if they wanted to dedicate a delicious meal to their queen.

Edward stared at the female spider and shouted: "You are wrong! Every moment of a flower has its beauty, whether it is when it is about to bloom, when it is shy, when it is half-bloomed, when it is in full bloom. Even withering has its beauty! You like me now, how do you know you don't like me the next moment?"

"Hmph, you really started discussing with her." Xiluta's voice suddenly came from above, and the little black loli didn't know what to do, ignoring the thick soil, and appeared from above, " She's not an elf or a spider or a living thing at all—she's just a curse."

With the appearance of the West Road Tower, other people also appeared one after another.

"So it's so deep underground, no wonder other people couldn't find it here." George looked around, and his eyes fell on the coffin in the middle, "That coffin looks quite valuable."

Crowd: ...

——Principal, you really never forget the purpose of the school, and you are really a role model for students!

"Who are you!" Spider Woman looked at them angrily, and then her expression became sad, "You lied to me..."

- hello!Do your acting skills need to be so good? You just said you wanted to eat Edward!

Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful she is, in Edward's eyes, she is really a dead body.

And Isaac, the small-minded and vengeful demon clan, has already taken out the dragon gun.

But he was stopped by George.

"Stop, stop, if we use the magic dragon gun, we will be buried alive soon! You and Rein watch the battle and fall in love, and I promise it will end soon!"

Rhine: ...

Isaac put away the dragon gun, but he didn't give up the idea of ​​finding trouble with the spider woman.

His six wings can't be fully unfolded underground, but it doesn't prevent him from releasing the breath of hell. The black breath instantly pounces on the surrounding red spiders. The silent erosion is like a cruel killing, although the target of the killing is not life.

George glanced at Isaac. The black-haired and purple-eyed demon youth had a cold smile on his mouth. The indifference on that face was the inherent arrogance of the Dragon King.

"Do not--!"

Spider Woman let out a loud roar, and her body quickly disintegrated. The red spider was going to leave through different holes, but it bumped into an invisible barrier.

"Don't treat us all as dead people." George said leisurely.

Lucius and Xiluta, who contributed to the formation of the enchantment, spurned the principal who only talked but didn't practice in their hearts - they are obviously the ones who contributed, okay? !

At this moment, the black fire of the breath of hell shrouded the entire cave in black flames, and all the red spiders were devoured. Isaac could even hear the satisfied voice of the breath of hell—they even The star spider on Isaac's arm was also swallowed.

"The core item of the curse should be in the coffin, let's open it and have a look?" George said as he slowly walked towards the weird and gorgeous spider coffin.

"I'm here to help." Rein walked over, intending to take the lead, but he was held back by Isaac.

"Need not."

George waved his hand, and suddenly two skeletons popped up on the ground, one on each side, and they lifted up vigorously—they didn’t move.

So two skeletons turned into four, and four turned into eight. In the end, a circle of skeletons crowded around the spider coffin, and the coffin remained motionless.

Everyone looked at the faces of the skeletons and felt that the expressions of the skeletons were very wronged.

George:  …

Everyone: Can you do it?

Isaac: Or I'll just shoot that coffin?
