Chapter 333.2: Lifting the Curse 3

Hh!? (Cry)

I became breathless for a moment. It was a sight so mysterious and unidentifiable.

A whirling wind blows in from nowhere, whipping up all the leaves on the surrounding trees. It is like offensive Magic. I immediately look at my companions, but they all look at the scene in shock.

The leaves that soar in front of our confused faces become particles of light and rain down on us.

Eliza grabs my arm and pulls me back. At that moment, I remember the Treasure Shrine that had appeared in front of me due to a tectonic movement that occurred by chanceThe Prism Garden. Particles of light gather, shine intensely for a moment, and take shape. The environment that should have been empty, the force that should have been weightless, gained shape, and mass and shook the earth.

!? What Is This? (Astor)

I see So that is how you want to play. (Cry)

The leaves of the new World Tree fall from the sky. It is a little bit late but, indeed, it is unnatural that the leaves that are falling so fast haven't fully covered the ground. Apparently, the scene that is happening in front of my eyes is the reason for it.

In general, Phantoms do not manifest right in front of your eyes. This is because when there are living beings, the Mana Materials are absorbed by them.

However, there are exceptions to things.

If you think about it calmly, the leaves are falling as a result of the World Tree being unable to process its Mana Materials. So the leaves are probably like a mass of Mana Materials. And now, in front of my eyes, it has reached a sufficient amount to become a Phantom. At the worst timing possible.

That's That's impossible. A Phantom is manifesting!? There are not only Spirit People hereThere is a human being too!? Moreover, he is a Level 8 Hunter! (Astor)

Astor lets out a horrified voice and looks at me. Sorry, I can hardly absorb any Mana Materials But I don't think it would have mattered even if it wasn't me who was here.

A Phantom appears in the space that was empty until a moment ago. A Phantom wearing a golden mask.

Moreover It isn't just one that appeared.

The Phantoms that appear in this Treasure Shrine are all wearing masks. (Eliza)

Eliza adds supplementary information. The ruin, which had been uninhabited earlier, is now overflowing with a wide variety of Phantoms.

Thinking about this, I turn around. And the sight I see there leaves me speechless.

Lapis and the others, Serene, and even Eliza are completely frozen.

There is a huge crack in the air, where there has certainly been nothing there until a moment ago.

I know the Magic Lucia uses, but I have never seen a Magic that creates a rift in space. In the first place, I have heard that Magic that affects space-time is an extremely difficult Magic that is harder than gravity Magic, and there are only a few modern Magi who are able to use it.

In front of my stunned eyes, a huge head crawls out of the crack.

A giant centipede with a red shell, comparable to a PhantomFollowed by a human voice.

D'mn, I never would have guessed that the source of that power would be a dead end.' (?)

Thats why I told you to go back, didn't III? That space is a liiittle out of sync with the real world! Who knows what would have happened if I didn't have my Ripper? (?)

The girl who jumps down from the rift is the girl who has asked me to give her the guide. She is not wearing a hood right now, but I can tell by her voice. On her head is a doll carrying a giant pair of scissors.

Next, a black-haired young man with a sword at his waist appears, and finallyA black-haired woman carrying a large spear appears. She has tanned skin and sharp eyes. She seems to have a strong character like Liz.

When the woman sees me, her eyes widen for a moment, then she immediately nods and smiles as if she is convinced of something.

Apparently I've kept you waiting, Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka).' (Adler)

Uhm Wh-Who are you?

As if in response to what the woman says, the giant centipede behind her lets out a deafening roar.

Thanks for reading! Looks like Adler's real trial is gonna start soon! Everything is according to Cry's plan

On a side note, I don't know if there is any Danmachi fan here but I'm translating the Drama CD from volume 19. The translation is mostly done but I have to edit the video and that's probably gonna take some time. I'll keep you updated but it shouldn't impact Strange Grief translation.
