Chapter 2627 First Fire and Purification Curse

"no."

Sister Devlin answered almost immediately. Shade looked at her, but the nun's face had no expression as usual;

"Shad went out to search for his missing friend. During that time, he fought with the enemy and was seriously injured. I happened to be there at the time and met his cat, who led me to find him."

This part of the account is indeed factual, but she is describing events during the Battle of Mount Sikar, before which the two had known each other.

"He was seriously injured and had no choice but to ask me for help, so I gave him the power of the First Fire. This happened last year."

Shade recalled that after the Battle of Mount Sikal last fall, Sister Devlin took away his pocket watch with the Evergreen Leaf on the top of the mountain, then knelt on one knee by the bonfire, holding the slender flame in both hands, almost begging. The scene where he said with a trembling voice "I beg you, I beg you, touch this flame" (Chapter 807).

"The thing is, I had to ask Sister Devlin for help."

He nodded and glanced at the nun again, only to find that she had no reaction at all.

Although Miss Winslet thought there was still something fishy about it, she was too embarrassed to carefully explore other people's privacy:

"So that's it, oh, how could you do such a dangerous thing? What are you going to do if Sister Devlin doesn't find you? But I know your cat is very smart. The last time you asked me to take care of it, I Found this."

Although Sister Devlin's sudden visit surprised everyone, since it was Miss Isabella who asked her to try to lift the curse, everyone was happy to have another chance to lift the curse.

This time the nuns only brought two blind nuns from the High Circle. However, they did not come directly from the mountain top sacrificial site, but first went to Willendale City through the mountain top oil painting, and then took a boat from Willendale Came here.

Of course there is a branch of the "Snake Heart Hospital" in a big city like Willendale, the capital of the United Kingdom of Carsonlik.

Everyone had lunch together first, during which they were extremely curious about the story of Shade and the nun, and found that this was also a good opportunity to get to know Shade. Miss Winslet wanted to ask more about their story, but the silent nun's appearance while eating made her feel confused. Everyone was even embarrassed to talk at the table while eating.

Her temperament is indeed unique.

After lunch, he officially began to try to understand the curse. Shade originally wanted to suggest going to the forest to break the curse to prevent accidents from causing the same trouble as Miss Adele Isabella last time, but Sister Devlin slightly Shaking his head:

"no need."

She spoke concisely and to the point:

"If you are with me, there will be no problems in the first fire."

Since there are two cursed people present, you have to choose one first when trying to break the curse. The red-haired girl and Miss Owl gave in to each other, and finally Miss Daniste chose to be the first to accept the "experiment."

The place where the curse was broken was in her room 317, with Miss Winslet and Miss Bell watching.

Miss Denister sat on the sofa, and the nun said softly:

"I need to observe the state of your soul first."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand towards his blindfold, but after a pause, he "looked" at Shade. So under the slightly puzzled gazes of the other ladies, Shade turned around in a wise manner.

[I think there is no need to describe her movements to you. 】

The mithril eyepatch was removed by Sister Devlin, and her delicate face was slightly lowered, causing the other three ladies to look sideways. Then the nun opened her closed eyes, and the moment she looked at the red-haired girl with her pure white eyes, she felt that her soul was being completely penetrated.

This gaze lasted only five seconds:

"I see."

The nun said, and Shade turned around after the sound of her putting on the blindfold stopped:

"How is it going?"

"This is a curse rooted in the soul related to the power of the ancient gods. Today's First Fire may not be able to resist it, but it is worth a try."

"What needs to be done? Do I need to prepare anything in advance?"

Miss Winslet then asked curiously.

"No preparation is needed, Shade, it's up to you."

"How to do?"

"To burn and purify her soul."

It's easy to say and easy to do. The temperature and violence of the first fire are definitely not something ordinary mortal souls can withstand, so both "fire-bearing nuns" and "fire-bearing heroes" require very special talents.

If Sister Devlin triggers the flames herself, Miss Daniste's soul is in danger of being burned by the flames. But if Shade is used as a "transit station", then the intensity of the flames can be reduced to a barely acceptable level.

The specific method is to remove the furniture in the living room of the suite, and then the three of them stand together in a triangle. Sister Devlin held Shade's left hand, and Shade's right hand held Miss Danister's left hand.

After getting ready, as the nun lowered her head slightly, the palms connected to her and Shade immediately ignited a slender orange flame.

??????55.??????

The curtains were closed at this time, so the room seemed a little dark. After the flame appeared, other areas in the room seemed darker, and only Shade's hand connected with the nun became brighter.

Miss Bell, who was standing next to her teacher, had reflected the color of the flame in her eyes, and there was actually a touch of blood on her usually pale cheeks:

"Teacher, that flame is so warm."

She said softly, as if talking in her sleep.

But Flora Winslet had no intention of touching the flame. She had felt the heat that appeared on Shad, especially the heat he showed in death, which was even hotter than the first fire.

The flame burned silently, and the burn scars on the right hand that the nun and Shad held tightly lit up slightly. And a bright crack appeared on Shad's left hand, but the crack did not spread to his whole body, but only passed through his chest to his right arm.

As the bright red crack appeared on his right hand, the flame also burned silently in the palm of his hand connected to Miss Danister. The red-haired girl groaned, and then her whole body trembled.

She was not ignited, but the blue blood vessels on the back of her white hand all turned bright red, and this glowing color extended to the depths of the sleeve.

It seemed that infinite heat ignited her at that moment, even the "Red Moon Witch" who had experienced countless battles and pains almost couldn't control her body at this moment.

It was not entirely the so-called pain, the expansion of the soul and body brought a feeling that could not be described in words. The heat quickly made her fall into a semi-comatose state, and when she regained consciousness, she found herself being hugged by Shade, and her whole body was soaked.

Everyone looked at her with some worry, and Danister Gustav, who regained consciousness, realized the changes that had taken place in her in just a few seconds.

It was as if she had taken a comfortable hot bath after being tired. At this moment, not only the fatigue of her body, but also the fatigue of her soul had been completely eliminated. She even felt that her soul had become purer under the cleansing of the fire.

"I'm fine."

Her voice was a little hoarse, she pushed Shade away, and after feeling her legs and feet weakened, she had to hug Shade again:

"Sorry, I lost my composure. My strength seems to have returned. I now have eleven rings."

"The curse has not been removed."

Sister Develyn stood beside the two of them, watching Shade help the red-haired girl sit down:

"The First Fire only suppressed the curse, allowing your strength to return temporarily. But this situation will only last until midnight tonight, and it will return to its original state, and if you use this method again next time, the effect will be worse."

Shade's fingers lit up the silver moonlight, and the magic [Silver Moon Gift of Cindia] healed the red-haired girl's spirit. But he didn't know that this was completely unnecessary. She was very energetic at this time, even too energetic, but her body was still recovering from the feeling of being "purified" by the First Fire.

"The First Flame is powerless against this curse?"

"The current First Flame is not enough."

Sister Defulin corrected:

"The First Flame in its full state is enough to burn away such a curse, but it is impossible to find the remaining flames in a short time. If you can get the help of the Chosen One of Time, you can find another split flame, which is enough to solve the curse."

Shade was delighted. This was the only way they knew so far to eradicate the "time curse". Before, whether it was the umbilical cord, the paradox worm potion or anything else, it was to delay rather than eradicate.

At this moment, he even thought that Luvia's time curse could also be eradicated in this way.

"That's great, the Chosen One and find another flame? I see."

After that, he asked the witch next to him:

"Miss Winslet, do you also want to try to suppress the curse with the First Flame for a short time? Although it is not eradication, since Sister Defulin has come here specially, why not give it a try."

Miss Artist would naturally not disagree, and Sister Defulin would not object either.

So the three of them followed the same steps again, with Shade still acting as a "transit station" to deliver the flames of the purifying curse.

Even though Miss Winslet had been fully prepared because of Miss Danister's performance just now, when the flames silently ignited from her and Shade's tightly clasped hands, the infinite light and heat at that moment still made her cold and empty soul, which had been affected by death for a long time, lost.

"But, this temperature is not as hot as last time."

In the blurred illusion and the illusion of burning in the fire, she vaguely realized that the temperature she had felt from Shade that "burned" her soul was definitely not as simple as the first fire.

His soul has a greater and purer light and heat, which is what she is pursuing

At this moment, her consciousness seemed to fall into the boundary between reality and illusion. She subconsciously turned her head and looked at the strange man in trembling, and then was surprised to find that he looked back at her face with a little worry, and there was clearly a bright silver moon in his right eye.
