Seeing the tooth marks on his hand, Natsuki Subaru's expression suddenly became particularly ugly.
He was not a fool, so he naturally reacted when he saw this scene. It was obvious that the root of the curse spell was this tooth mark, and this tooth mark came from a puppy in the village.
To be honest, when Natsuki Subaru asked about the principle of the curse.
He had doubted the two old men, the village chief, and even any stranger who took the initiative to approach him.
But he was the only one who never doubted this dog... After all, this dog's sense of existence was too low. It seemed to be about the same size as a Chihuahua, and it was playing with a group of children in the village, so he subconsciously
I ignored this dog.
Even if he was bitten, he didn't take it seriously.
After all, Beatrice also mentioned it.
Only conjurers who are proficient in curses can cast curses.
When he heard the word speller, Natsuki Subaru naturally imagined the other person as an evil mage... What he never expected was that the guy who cursed him turned out to be just a dog.
"Damn dog!"
Thinking of this, Natsuki Subaru was indeed a little angry.
Although he does like small animals, this dog is the culprit that caused him to reincarnate several times.
To this day, Natsuki Subaru has not forgotten the feeling of despair he felt when he woke up and returned to seven days ago. This was much more painful than having his archive deleted. No matter how good-tempered he was, it was impossible for him not to be angry at all.
Now he just wants to kill this vicious dog that eats people's archives immediately.
"dog?"
When Beatrice heard this, she asked curiously: "What dog are you referring to?"
"It's a dog from the village."
Natsuki Subaru simply explained: "The tooth marks on my hand were caused by its bite. This thing is also my fault. I saw it having fun playing with those children, so I ignored its danger...
…Wait! Kids?!”
Think of this.
Natsuki Subaru's expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong with you?"
When Beatrice saw this, she also frowned and complained: "Why are you always surprised? The curse must not have entered your mind, right?"
"Those kids..."
Natsuki Subaru said to himself worriedly: "If that dog is very dangerous, what should the children do if they are bitten by it?"
Think of this.
Don't wait for Beatrice to say anything else.
Natsuki Subaru turned around and ran away, leaving the Forbidden Library in a hurry.
"What an inexplicably bad guy."
Beatrice looked at the other person's back, sighed, and then closed the door with a wave of her hand: "Forget it, this kind of thing has nothing to do with me anyway..."
…
After leaving the Forbidden Library.
Natsuki Subaru immediately ran to the kitchen.
"Bang!"
Suddenly opening the door, Natsuki Subaru shouted directly inside: "...I want to go to the village!"
This sudden voice immediately stunned all the people who were busy in the kitchen, including Ram who was peeling potatoes, the head maid Ashue who was making sweet and sour pork, and Lei who was learning cooking skills next to her.
Mu, Xiao Fei who is fishing... and Xiao Cui who is quietly eating.
"To the village? Now?"
Ram was the first to react: "Is the food not to your taste? But I don't think the villagers will give you food..."
"It's not about the food!"
When Natsuki Subaru said this, he simply raised his left hand to everyone and explained: "Did you see the tooth mark on it? It was bitten by a dog when I went to the village with Rem this afternoon. Beatrice said
This is a curse…there’s something wrong with that dog!”
"?"
Hearing this, Ram turned his head and glanced at Rem.
Rem didn't say anything, but nodded, confirming that the other party had indeed been bitten by a dog.
"Anyway, that's what happened."
Natsuki Subaru continued: "There is something wrong with that dog-like guy. It can inflict curses by biting others. If we ignore it... those children in the village will definitely be in danger, right?"
"That's true..."
After hearing Natsuki Subaru's explanation, the two maids subconsciously nodded.
As mentioned before, Roswaal is a border lord, a lord stationed in the border area of Metzas, and the surrounding villages are considered his subjects. As a lord, he does have the obligation to protect his subjects, and Roswaal has the obligation to protect his subjects.
Of course Zvar's obligation is also their obligation.
"Then why did you tell us this?"
After pondering for a moment, Ram here also asked directly: "If we talk about the degree of closeness, you should tell Mr. Dongwen immediately, right?"
"Brother Dongwen's approach is a bit too extreme."
When Natsuki Subaru heard this, he also had a headache and rubbed his temples: "It's not that I don't want to tell him, but if I tell him... he might just wipe out the entire village with a single skill."
"This is true."
Xiao Feihong, who was fishing next to him, suddenly raised his hand and said: "Master will definitely do such a thing... Ah, Xiao Cui, you are stealing again!"
"I agree with that."
At this point, Axue, who was cooking next to him, also started talking: "So if you can solve it, the most important thing is not to ask the master for help, because the master usually only uses three methods to solve the problem, the earth explodes the stars, the sky floods, or...
…”
"Sister Axue, please stop talking."
Natsuki Subaru wiped his face to stop what the other party would say next.
"..."
The two maids also looked at each other after hearing this.
"Actually, for now, I should be able to solve this matter myself."
And at this moment, Natsuki Subaru spoke again: "But I probably also know that you don't trust me very much, right? After all, because of this witch's curse, I have understood how others view me for so many years.
of……"
"..."
When Rem heard this, her eyes subconsciously dodge.
She did have some doubts about the other party.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "If you have any doubts about me, you can follow me."
Natsuki Subaru knew all this, so he simply showed a very calm look and said: "Of course it's okay for only one person to monitor me, just like this afternoon. After all, you guys here in the mansion must not be worried. This
I can understand this, so you don’t have to feel any psychological burden.”
"What an unexpectedly candid statement."
When he heard this, Ram suddenly nodded: "I agree with your dictatorship, so let Rem accompany you."
"Eh?" Rem next to her was stunned for a moment.
"That's it anyway."
Ram turned to his sister and said: "Since the guests have taken the initiative to expose this matter, there is no point in covering it up anymore. I leave the matter of monitoring him to you. Rem, I will be responsible for the mansion.
I will ask Lady Beatrice about this."
"Oh well."
After her sister said so, Rem could only nod: "I understand."
"Without further ado, let's set off as soon as possible." Natsuki Subaru was quite anxious, and he greeted directly at this moment: "Oh, by the way... remember to bring your weapons!"
"knew."
Rem also sighed after hearing this.
Anyway, after that, the two of them left the mansion soon and rushed towards the nearby village.
However, because it was getting late and the mansion was some distance away from the village, by the time the two of them rushed over, the sunset had completely sunk into the horizon, and a dark night fell.
And when the two came to the village.
Soon, Rem noticed that many villagers were holding torches, seemingly looking for something.
"What happened?"
Seeing this scene, Rem also walked over directly and asked.
"That's it." The other party was a young man, with an anxious look on his face at the moment: "A few children in the village have disappeared, and we are looking for them... but no matter how hard we look, we can't find them!"
"Are you really late?"
Natsuki Subaru also frowned when he heard this.
But soon, he suddenly thought of the place where the children used to play, so he hurriedly ran there, and Rem followed him immediately when he saw it.
Soon the two came to a clearing.
This is actually the edge of the village. A little further ahead is the forest area. In order to prevent danger, some fences have been specially built here, and some barrier-like things have been set up with magic crystals on the trees to prevent
Beasts from the forest invade the village.
"wrong……"
As soon as Rem arrived here, she immediately sensed something was wrong. She raised her hand and pointed: "The barrier has failed."
"What?"
Natsuki Subaru looked up and found that there was something wrong with one of the magic crystals.
The other magic crystals were all glowing, but the one pointed by the other party was dim. It was obvious that this was a loophole in the barrier. Natsuki Subaru reacted instantly: "So that dog is actually from the forest.
Beast?"
"To be more precise, it's Warcraft."
Rem frowned and said: "...That is something bred by a witch, and it is the natural enemy of humans with magical powers."
"There are footprints on the ground."
Natsuki Subaru glanced at the ground, and immediately raised his finger and said: "It doesn't look like the footprints are big, they should be those of the children. They seemed to be attracted by the monsters into the forest."
"Please tell everyone about this."
When Rem heard this, she turned around and said something to the young man next to her.
"Okay, I get it!"
The young people here also looked anxious. It was obvious that the monsters were quite dangerous to them, and they hurried towards the center of the village.
And it was just when the young man returned.
Natsuki Subaru suddenly stretched out his hands and jumped over the guardrail.
"Subaru! What are you doing?"
When Rem saw this, she immediately asked subconsciously.
"Of course I'm going to save the child." Natsuki Subaru said matter-of-factly: "I know very well how ferocious those monsters are. If I don't save them, do I have to watch them die?"
"But now this thing is a little weird."
Rem frowned: "Sir Roswaal just left, and something like this happened in the village, and normally this barrier will not be damaged... What if this is a feint attack on the mansion? Roswaal
Lord Val should have said that protecting Lord Emilia’s safety is the most important thing, right?”
"Don't worry, Emilia Carbon will be very safe."
Hearing this, Natsuki Subaru also turned to look at Rem: "If Brother Dongwen is an enemy, no one including me can survive, so whether it is out of good intentions or something else, I think
Let me remind you...you don’t have to believe me, but please at least believe in Brother Dongwen."
"Well..."
Rem was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
This is true, after all, everyone has seen the power of the magic the opponent used during morning exercises. At least Rem feels that she cannot withstand such an attack.
"Of course, there is actually another way."
Just as he was thinking about this, Natsuki Subaru spoke again: "That is to ignore this group of children who are in crisis and return to the mansion to strengthen the defense. It doesn't matter if all the villagers are dead the next day. If you think this
If this method is suitable, then I have nothing to say."
"But if that's the case, then please think that I am a spy sent by the enemy."
As Natsuki Subaru spoke, he slowly turned around, looked directly at Rem and said sincerely: "...Because I can't ignore death."
"you……"
Rem seemed a little surprised when she heard this.
"Let's go, Rem."
Without waiting for her to finish her words, Natsuki Subaru suddenly smiled and invited again: "Although you don't trust me, I am willing to believe that you are not the kind of cold-blooded and ruthless people... Just protect the children.
, it’s up to me to think of a way to fight, after all, this is my personal hatred.”
Come to the last two words.
Subaru Natsuki clenched his fists uncontrollably: "After all, no matter what, I was harmed by the creations of these witches..."
"..."
Rem looked at Natsuki Subaru with some surprise.
The anger in the other person's eyes was very real, it didn't look like it was staged. It was a look that could only be revealed after experiencing despair and pain.
Because that feeling is actually very familiar to Rem.
It can even be said that I feel the same way.
After all, Rem has also experienced the genocide and destruction of villages by people taught by the witch, so she also hates the witch to the core, so when Rem thinks about it... Natsuki Subaru must also be tortured because of the witch's curse.
He would show such a look of hatred.
"you……"
Thinking of this, Rem's attitude towards Natsuki Subaru also changed somewhat.
It would be too scary to say that the other party was pretending this, not to mention that people tend to have others feel the same way as themselves, so even Rem herself did not realize that she had subconsciously believed in Natsuki Subaru's tragic experience
.
"Okay, let's go."
Natsuki Subaru didn't want to say that. At this moment, his eyes were already burning with fighting spirit: "It's time to end all this."
"There's really nothing we can do."
Rem's attitude obviously changed a lot. There was a hint of understanding and recognition deep in her eyes, and her expression softened a lot: "After all, my mission is to monitor Subaru, so I can only act with you."
"Then it's up to you."
Natsuki Subaru smiled when he heard this, and then walked straight into the depths of the forest.
And I don't know if it was just their luck, but the two of them didn't encounter any wild beasts along the way. Instead, they successfully found the group of unconscious children. The two of them cooperated with each other and quickly killed the group of children.
They gathered on a small hillside.
But when Rem was trying to save these children.
There were commotions in the surrounding woods, and soon a pair of scarlet eyes lit up from within.
"It's a monster."
Rem's expression suddenly changed: "They seem to be chasing me..."
"It doesn't matter, let me do it."
Natsuki Subaru said, and also directly made a fighting posture: "This time I will definitely kill that hateful stupid dog with my own hands!"
And along with his words.
Soon, an astonishing number of large vicious dogs walked out of the bushes. It felt like there were hundreds of them, but the leader was actually a small dog with a somewhat bald head. At this moment, it was staring at Natsuki Subaru in a humane way.
, with a playful expression of trying to catch a turtle in an urn.
"That's it!"
The enemy was particularly jealous when they met, and Natsuki Subaru immediately raised his palm.
Before the group of monsters on the other side could make any move, Natsuki Subaru's skills had already struck at the opponent preemptively: "Damnable bald cursed dog! Reciprocity is a courtesy, and it just so happens that I can give you a taste of the curse... compound evil spell
