I didnāt have time to ponder about the meaning of his words. The Cursed Spirit People who came in from behind landed on the Lounge.
Tino frantically rushed to Mimic-kun, who was left in the center of the lounge.
Open the lock. Open the lock. Open the lock. Donāt thinkāāAbout anything else.
Darkness encroaches on the feet of Spirit People.Ā The floor, walls, and ceiling too. The darkness is approaching.
Itās not good, I donāt have the time to open it. Such a premonition passed through my mind, but I couldnāt give up without trying.
Then Tino clung to the treasure chest and, for the umpteenth time, widened her eyes in amazement.
āThe lockā¦ā¦ Is opened!ā (Tino)
The lock was lying on the floor. Mimic-kunās lid was opened. Inside it was full of darkness, as if leading to the abyss.
Itās Onee-sama! Onee-sama figured out the situation beforehand and opened it for me!
Opening the lock was Onee-samaās role. Then Tinoās role isāā.
And thatās when Tino realized something outrageous that had slipped her mind.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ I-Is there a way to get this Cursed Spirit People inside Mimic-kun?
āIt-is-o-ver, human! You were the most loathsome opponent I have ever metā (Cursed Spirit People)
The curse is calm. It wonāt even accidentally walk into Mimic-kun. I could lift the treasure chest and rush at it, but Tino is not so naive to think that will trap my opponent.
I look at Master~. Master~ blinked his eyes as if he was waiting for something.
To still be normal during such a predicament, as expected of a god. If possible, I want you to give Tino a blessing.
The Cursed Spirit People steps forward with a demon-like expression. When suddenly, Marinās Wails and the black knight come out from behind the Spirit People and stand in front of it.
Marinās Wails was no longer wailing but looked like she was about to cry.
The black knightās expression is not visible because of his helmet, but it is probably very similar to hers. The two curses are quite powerful by human standards, but they are clearly a few steps below the monster in front of them.
Seeing Marinās Wail raises her black staff and the black knight wielding the magic sword, the Spirit People frowns.
That was all the Spirit People did.
There was no warning. Marinās Wails and the black knight were reaped and swallowed by the black tentacles released from the back of the Spirit People.
What a terrifying speed. Tino, a Thief, didnāt even have the time to blink. Marinās Wails and the black knight, who was facing it, probably didnāt understand what had happened to them.
Only one left⦠The strongest curse remaining looks at Master~.
āNon⦠Senseā¦ā¦ Did you sympathize with him, due to his weaknessā¦ā¦ Did you bond with themāāIs this⦠Your last resort? Cry Andrich?ā (Cursed Spirit People)
The spirit person says quietly while its cheeks were *hikuhiku* twitching.
Master~ once said, āSpirit People are beautiful, but when they get angry, they are scary, except for Kruz.ā And indeed, their faces are so beautiful and terrifying that it is hard to believe they are from this world.
āUwaaahā¦ā¦ So awfulā¦ā¦ How could you do that to your friendsāāā (Cry)
As expected even for Master~ this might have been unexpected or maybe he was overwhelmed by its powerāāHe held his mouth and retreated.
And thenāāHe tripped over Mimic-kun, whose mouth was still open, and was sucked in upside down.
āā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā (Cursed Spirit People)
The Spirit People remain silent with a tense expressions. Our eyes meet each other, and Tino involuntarily *bunbun* shake my head sideways.
Ah, I understand, Master~! My roleāāMy role is to pull Master~ out, isnāt it! Iāll pull you out as much as you want, as long as it doesnāt kill me!!
The slender shoulders of the Spirit People trembles and its figure flickers strongly. And thenāā
āIāll-Iāll kill youā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ Donāt you, donāt you dare make fun of meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!ā (Cursed Spirit People)
āHh!?ā (Tino)
āāA roar.
My knees shatter from the impact and my guts turn upside down.
Its appearance slowly *guzuguzu* crumbles into a *dorodoro* thick black liquid.
In front of Tino who couldnāt even scream, the liquid rushed into Mimic-kunās entrance like a muddy stream.
The unexpected sequence of events delayed my judgment. NoāāEven if I had made a decision in time, I already didnāt have the strength to endure it.
The Spirit People didnāt target Tino, but the black liquid included Tino, who was within its effective range and near Mimic-kun.
The momentum of the current was like a muddy stream and my body was swept away. I struggled to move my frozen body, but I couldnāt resist it at all. And along with the curse, I was sucked into Mimic-kun.
