Chapter 310 Dreadful Man

Part 2

“Ma-Master~............ About those curses yesterday――” (Tino)

“Aaaah...... It’s right there, isn’t it? Eliza took the jewel, tho’――” (Cry)

Master~ points at his desk. There, a black staff and a sword are placed in front of a teddy bear with a cross pendant on its neck.

And on its arm is forcibly put the ring that Tino obtained inside Mimic-kun and presented it to him.

“A 5-piece cursed equipment set!” (Tino)

“I will have to return the staff and sword............ I don’t want them to tell me off.” (Cry)

He is totally playing with the cursed items that caused a stir all over the Imperial Capital. It seems like the most dangerous curse item which is the Cursed Spirit Stone isn’t there, but the other items cannot be underestimated. Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

It may be a sign of his composure, but it is too bad for my heart to watch those from the sidelines. What are you going to do with Tino by making my heart *dokidoki* pound so much when it’s already *dokidoki* pounding?

And then Master~ looks at Tino as if he suddenly has an idea.

“Ahhh, right. I wanted to talk with you Tino――” (Cry)

“...... Y-Yes. What is it............?” (Tino)

My heartbeat, which I thought was at its limit, accelerates further. At this rate, it looks like I’m going to learn Onee-sama’s 『Absolute Shadow (Zetsu Ei)』 move.

That technique, which intentionally accelerates the heartbeat to gain explosive speed, is also a terrifying technique that can cause the heart to burst if not trained properly.

My body is hot. It’s hot, but I am cold. I’m too nervous. Master~ opens his mouth to continue what he is saying while Tino is about to collapse at any moment.

At that moment, the door to the Clan Master’s office flung open.

“Cry-chan, it’s terrible! Come with me now!” (Liz)

It was Onee-sama who burst into the room. I inadvertently shudder, but she doesn’t even give Tino a glance and rushes over to Master~ at once.

Onee-sama is always short-tempered, but it’s unusual for her to be this agitated. Master~ is also staring in wonder.

............ I feel like there wasn’t any statue when I was being chased the other day, but is it just my imagination?

While *konkon* tapping on the stone statues, I check them out, one by one. Each statue is truly exquisite and no two are alike.

Heck, they were completely human. I don’t really want to believe it, but even I can understand that much.

Humans have turned to stone. So straaaange.

“We-Well, I am sure, it is something that happens all the time.” (Cry)

“!? Eh!? Eeeeeh!? Th-This is something that happens all the time!?” (Tino)

Tino opens her eyes and looks at me with beautiful *kirakira* sparkling eyes.

Well, you know...... It happens all the time, in myths......

.

Somehow, I can imagine why it became like this. Well, it is because just the other day, I brought the cause of it with me.

“Cry-chan, over here, over here!” (Liz)

Liz beckons me over. I already feel like throwing up, but I head over there anyway.

There are not just ten or twenty statues. I have been told that there are almost no casualties, but it is such a big lie.

There was a cage made of stone. Inside it is a statue of Luke, gripping the lattice and roaring with his mouth wide open. Nearby, a statue of the 《Sword Saint (Kensei)》 holding a sword with a grim expression on his face, is also placed in a set. I had an idea of what to expect, but when I actually see them with my own eyes, I momentarily choked up.

I stare at Luke Psycol’s wide-opened eyes from a close distance. However, his eyes never focused on me.

C-Come to think of it――That curse said something about making him unable to wield a sword ever again.

“Cry-chan, do you think Luke-chan’s still alive~?” (Liz)

“............ F-For the time being, let’s put a mask on him so dust doesn’t accumulate in his mouth.” (Cry)

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

A whole dojo being petrified, just an everyday event for Cry.

And Cry’s first reaction is to cover Luke’s mouth

Tchao à plus!
