It was pretty obvious that the curse created by the guy who give us skills wouldn’t be suppressed by those. Else, he would look really stupid.
“What are you doing?” The Valkyrie speaks to me while walking to the girl. When she reaches her, she reveals her arms and legs hidden behind the goon she is wearing.
“I was testing something.”
“Where you poisoned at some point?” I walk to her and the girl has multiples bruises and scars on her body.
“No, it is worse than that.”
“I knew it. She was an orphan.” The atmosphere around the Valkyrie starts going a bit electric.
“Wait, is it always like this for orphans here?”
“Yeah, in remote places like this, they are often mistreated. We try our best to provide assistance but there is only so much we can do.”
“Right.”
The girl’s eyes start twitching and then she wakes up slowly.

“Damn.” I never heard so much crap since the first day David started bullying me. One thing is clear though, the people of this world are most likely bewitched. And I can thank the first hero for that. “I hope I will be able to fullfil Efreet’s request fast.”Now that I have dropped my guard, I can only deal with what I have before me and try my best.“By the way, Valkyrie…”“Yeah?”“What are you going to do with the guys waiting outside?”After she released her aura earlier, lot of guys have started to gather at the stairs. Maybe they thought it was she was dying. In any case, it is high time I leave. I am sure Warren is waiting for me.“You should escape with her. If you two are soulmates, it is important that you stay together.”Saying so, she goes to the door and puts her hand on her sword.“Sigh…What have I done again?”<

Right when I finish speaking, Oriana falls to the ground, her body slightly twitching. And now, the back of head hurts for nothing. What is wrong with her now?“What did you say just now?” Warren has already moved to me and his face is right before mine. I can even feel his violent breath on my skin.“Wait a bit first.” I go to Oriana and she seems to be in a sort of trance. Her eyes are completely white.” Preventing her from hearing the truth, huh…”“What’s going on with her?” Warren comes as well and try to feel her pulse. “She seems fine. What happ…Come on, seriously.” He looks at me with a large but sad smile. The smile of someone who has found a buried treasure.“Yup. That guy is a real piece of work.”“Ahaha….Ahahahaha!!! All this time! How long were we fooled?!! Oh, dear lords!! Ahahaha!!”Warren laughs and cries at the same

“Hnrgh…” Oriana finally wakes up, brealing our conversation and my mood. “Anyway, what I have to do is clear. Almost impossible, but clear.” I look at Warren and he smiles even more, taking his meat back from the fire. “Defeat god, eh? Such an amusing and funny idea. I am in!” He bites a big piece of meat and starts chewing while the annoyance wakes up totally. “What are you guys talking about? Hey, hubby, I want some as well.” “Nothing that concerns you.” Calm down. No need to be angry. “She calls you hubby?” “Just leave her alone, Warren.” After we are done eating, Oriana stands up and comes to sit near me. This is becoming more and more irritating. “Don’t get too familiar with me, I am serious.” “Don’t you feel it?” “Feel what?” What is this crazy girl talking about? “The attraction between us. Don’t you feel that electric tension building up whenever we are close.” “Hm…Miss, I am pret

“Anyway…” I take the first stance and gets ready to receive him. He disappears again, almost and I strike to my left. Just like earlier, the feeling of punching the tip of a blade combined with an explosion tells me I was right.Then I use the second stance to block him from the right. He is really fast. But I can take it. With the third stance, I kick the air behind me but to my surprise, the guy ands on my foot instead.“Insolent little-”His blade aims for the shoulders joint of my armor but I manage to brush it off by spinning around. Sadly, it breaks the dance of fire and he still manages to cut through the steel. Part of my shoulder’s armor falls off while the commander lands five meters away from me. You are going to play hit and run with me, huh.“I never really liked games but why not.”“Do you want me to help?” Warren asks me from the side but there is no need.“No,

Under the cover of the sunset, we arrive at Lindell. It seems to be a big city judging by the high walls and the number of carriages at the entrance of the city.“But it is not well located.” The city is at foot of a mountain, making it easy to invade for whoever is standing where we are.“On the contrary, it is very well located.” Warren doesn’t seem to agree with me. “Look, everywhere else is a plain.”“Yeah, I know but-”“Lindell has never been invaded since its creation. Some people even call it the gate to the principality of god.” Oriana shuts me down as well and I am forced to stay quiet. But wait a minute…“Can you get off? You are heavy.”“Eh? Really?” She tries to play it cute so I release her and she falls on her butt.“Ouch! Hey!! What was that for?!”“I told you. You are heavy. My arms are numb from ca

That stupid girl jumps to my neck and almost makes my hood falls right as we reach the guards at the gates. Weird enough, it seems it helps us as they all simply smile and let us through, without even asking anything.Once inside, Warren brings us to the right part of the city. We walk for a few minutes until we reach a fountain.“We will meet here in three hours top. I brought you to the entertainement district of the city since you guys want to visit a little. Don’t make yourself known and don’t start a commotion, please.”“Okay.”“Yeah, yeah. Just leave us already.”Oriana’s attitude towards Warren is quite condescending. I don’t like it. I hate it in fact. It is just like those guys. They were always abusing people, always acting high and mighty. I should kill her. Yeah, let’s kill her and then find them and kill them as w…“Shit…” ‘Heighten

Sarah’s armor is impressive but I wonder how can a skirt protect her. And it is short enough to reveal part of her thighs. No, now is not the time to think about this. We have a serious problem here. But those thighs…“Who is she, hubby?” Oriana, you are really…When people say that some are oblivious even to their own death, I guess you are included among those people.“Hubby?!!” Sarah immediately reacts and manifests her aura. It is impressive that she managed to learn it already. I guess I was truly no genius. Though hers still has no color.“Wait, there is a good reason for all this.” I try to walk to her but she raises her hand and I immediately understand: there is nothing more to do until her anger settles.“Lightning spear.” She uses her skill and a whitish spear made of lightning appears in her hand. “Will Otun. As a heretic, the church has issued a death penalty for your na

“Thanks for healing me.”After we fell into the hole, I was able to grab on a stake standing there before we hit the bottom. My arm got dislocated as a result but still, it allowed us to land without much damage. And now that she has healed my arm, I can take care of the commander. Though I can’t feel his presence anymore. I wonder if…nah, I don’t think he would die so easily.“I didn’t do it for you.”“You really seem angry. Do you want me to apologize?”“Fuck off!” She slaps me so hard the sound reverberates throughout we are in.There is barely any lights in here and I can’t even hear the sounds of the fight between David and Warren. Just how deep is this cave?“Okay.” I stand up but then she does the same thing and brings out her sword.“As soon as you will move from here, I will kill you.”“I have asked you earlier
