CH.62 Curing the Curse

CH.62 Curing the Curse

As we agreed to try to cure Lucia’s curse, I let Vampire Lady take control of the situation. I’m not an expert on this.

“Miss, we should move to your bedroom.” My summon said to Lucia.

“That’s fine. Follow me.” She said as she got up from the table.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

“And you will stay here, Master.” My summon ordered.

Really? I can’t watch? That’s disappointing.

“I don’t mind if he comes.” Lucia argued.

(It would be better if Master doesn’t go, in case Lucia has a reaction similar to Master’s when blood magic is used on her.) Laura told me. Yeah, I almost lost my mind to the pleasure when she did that blood scan thing. I’ll just stay here.

“It’s fine.” I said to the duo. “I can wait here.”

“We’ll be back soon.” My summon said as they walked up the stairs.

Well, now I’m here with nothing to do. At least there is one thing. My reprints. I’ll just pull those open as I wait.

That’s kind of disappointing. I didn’t get anything crazy. Not that some of it isn’t at least interesting, but I was honestly hoping for more. Giant Trunade might be nice, Red Medicine has already proved itself and Curse of Dragon is a decent monster. Even Dancing Fairy might be useful. Well, let’s just open the two others and hope for the best.

No. I did not. Is that really?

I rub my eyes for a second and take another look. It’s still there. The beauty, the elegance, the absolute power. The legendary dragon.

Blue-Eyes White Dragon

I have one.

(Laura, I need a toploader for this beauty, like yesterday.)

Electric Snake, 2x Fiend Scorpion, Gigobyte, 2x Goblin Thief, 2x Gravekeeper's Servant, Griggle, Hitotsu-Me Giant, Humanoid Worm Drake, Judgment of the Desert, Kiseitai, 2x Labyrinth of Nightmare, 3x Light of Judgment, 2x Man-Thro' Tro', Minor Goblin Official, 4x Monster Gate

(Just make it. I don’t really care what you sacrifice.) I hurried Laura along. (But I want to place it in the sleeve and toploader myself.) I added. Usually I would let Laura do it. But this is special.

(As you wish, Master. Here are the sleeve and toploader. Please take out the card when you are ready.)

If I have to wait to be ready, I won’t get it done today. You can’t get ready for this.

On the next day we escorted him and the lord of the town to a new dungeon. Brian became the dungeon’s founder. He even gave me a ‘hoodie’ he made with the dungeon. I was a little brought down that he would use me as a test subject, but it was worth it. That hoodie is so soft and warm.

Then he showed us how his unique skill works. I was surprised. I’ve never seen a skill that links to the system like that. I’ve not really even heard of them. The only one I know of is the ‘appraisal’ skill. And even that is slightly different.

He let me try summoning something and the cute little creature I summoned was so adorable I just had to hug it. I was able to play around with it for two hours, before I had to unsummon it. I think Brian said something about two hours being the time limit.

But then, something terrible happened.

I was out in the fields watching over the lower ranked adventurers as they were herding and feeding the boars that called the plains surrounding the town their home, when a bird flew to me. The bird was see-through and it had come to us to deliver a message. It said that wyverns were going to attack the town.

I didn’t fully understand but apparently, Brian had foreseen a wyvern attack and sent this bird to warn us. After telling me that the bird flew off somewhere, only to return a little later.

Brian then picked Rico and I up in a golem carriage. He was with the miss of the Watchman family. Why is she out here with him?

We managed to take down the wyverns, thanks to Brian’s summons. I was even able to solo one, with the help of the large golem Brian loaned to me. His summons are incredible.

In the end, no one died. Few had some injuries and one guard was even badly wounded, but Brian managed to heal him with a potion. He was left paralyzed by the wyverns poison, but that can be healed. Death cannot.

But Brian passed out. I didn’t really know why. Lady Watchman said he was burning up, and as I made my way over to him, he most definitely was. I began using water magic to keep him cool. We got him on a stretcher and took him back into town.

The doctor said he had severe level-up sickness. All we could do is wait and keep him cool. I didn’t sleep much that night, as I was using water magic to keep him cool. Thankfully the wyvern blood I collected helped me keep my mana levels up. I didn’t get to take part in the festival that took place that evening, but I don’t mind. I had a more important job to do. Taking care of the town's savior.

He woke up and we spent the morning together. He then offered to give me light magic if I wanted. I knew he had something to do with the Watchman daughter learning magic, but I didn’t think he could just give attributes like that.

I refused, because of my curse. He then offered to heal my blood curse. I tried to argue against it, but in the end he won.

He said he could possibly summon a vampire. And he did. And now, we are here.

“I’ll bite now, just hold still.” The vampire said to me.

Her bite didn’t hurt. It was pleasant. Like a hug. I could feel her magic flowing into me. Similar to how the ‘scan’ spells felt, but more powerful. Was she using ‘blood scan’?

Then her mana got a lot more intence. A surge flowed through me. Every muscle in my body stiffened. But not for long, as the surge ran out, I relaxed. I felt lighter. Did she do it?

“I’m sorry.” She said to me. Sorry? Why? “I can’t cure your curse.” She told me.

“But, I feel much better.” I told her.

“I could lessen its effect temporarily, but the curse is not gone.” She told me. “The lessened effect will likely last two to three days.”

I see. So even a true vampire can’t cure me. That’s too bad.

“We should report this to Master Brian.” She said to me. “A higher ranking vampire should be able to cure you completely, so we must tell Master to try to pull one.”

“Sure, let’s go back down stairs.” I answered and got up from the bed. I quickly put my clothes back on and followed the vampire down the stairs.
