1. "A new... Host."
2. "Um... Miss linda?"
3. "Yes?"
4. "Is there a way for me to bear the curse in place of the duchess?"
5. "...are you serious?"
6. "Bearing a curse is not something most people can do."
7. "But what if I'm not like most people?"
8. "...!"
9. Before the sage left this world, she made a prophecy:
10. "The starchild blessed by the elemental spirits shall lead the masses, disperse the darkness, and guide them towards the light."
Cargando…Cargando…
1. It requires five other elements to counteract the effects of the dark element in the purification curse...
2. The sage wrote that all in this book!
3. Our magic teacher also said that I have a strong affinity with the elements, so I might...
4. I might really have that power!
5. I might not be a hundred percent sure, but I have to try for the sake of the duchess and the young lady!
6. "......"
7. "My apologies for being direct, miss elsa,"
8. "But I feel that you should cherish and value your own life more."
9. "Do you know how terrifying this thing is?"
10. "The curse brings not just death with it..."
11. "It imprisons your soul within eternal darkness, to suffer all kinds of torment without any hope of release."
12. "Of course I'm... Terrified of it!"
13. "But I'm even more terrified that the young lady will have to undergo something as scary as this!"
14. "Please, miss linda!"
15. "I'm counting on you to help me out!"
1. "Excuse us, young lady, for causing all this trouble by our late arrival. Sincerest apologies."
2. "Is the duke here?"
3. "We have something important to talk to your father about your mother's "Illness"."
4. "My father is not home at present. Though I am young, I am also the heiress to the house of smollett."
5. "You may tell me anything you wish to say."
6. ...we might as well. The duke's been rather inflexible before, so things might be easier with this kid...
7. "My lady, the purpose of our visit is to request that madame smollett be turned over to us."
8. "Please do not be angry, my lady—"
9. "We knew that this would be something that would be difficult for you to accept,"
10. "But we're hoping that you can calm down and listen to our reasons why."
1. "All those years ago, when the sage used her own body to seal the power of the demon lord's curse,"
2. "The curse ate away at her, eventually forcing her into a eternal slumber..."
3. "The sage went through the same symptoms as the duchess's today!"
4. "Although the host will not immediately die after she enters a eternal slumber,"
5. "Her lifeforce will gradually diminish as time goes on."
6. "Once the host is gone, the curse's power will return to engulf this land..."
7. "And the demon lord shall be reawakened anew!"
8. "That's why turning the duchess over to us is the best option to-"
9. "Stop your nonsense!"
10. "Don't think I don't know what's going on!"
11. "When you sealed the sage into the veins of the earth all those years ago, you used unnatural means to extend the seal."
12. "You turned a living person's body into crystal..."
13. "And now you want to do the same thing to my mother, correct?"
14. "How is this any different from murdering her?!"
15. "My lady! We're doing this for the sake of the country and its people!"
16. "The duchess won't last for long after she enters the eternal slumber!"
17. "Why not let your mother contribute to the stability of this country instead?"
18. "Who gave you lot the right to make such a decision for other people?!"
1. "Hiding in your magical towers, getting other people to sacrifice themselves!"
2. "If you're so highly principled with your sense of duty, why don't you bear the curse in place of my mother???"
3. "Get out of my sight! Now!"
4. "Don't let them take even a single step into the grounds from now on!"
5. There must be some way to let my mother continue living...
6. Since my mother took on the sage's curse, that must mean that the curse can be transmitted or moved, right?
7. In the original plot, the villainess's dark power was probably the power of that curse. So that must mean...
8. My mother's curse ultimately moved to me...?
9. ...that's right! I can just figure out a way to move the curse onto myself!
1. "Linda! I've got something I need your help with!"
2. "......"
3. "Yes, my lady."
