DAAAAAMIIT…
.
I DIDN’T THINK THAT CAN SHE FIGURE THAT OUT FROM LOOKING AT ME…
.
I Dropped my guard down…
.
.
.
This is bad, their is no way I’ll get out of this..
.
.
.
Of course if they know I was cursed by the goddess of life, I would scornd be labeled as the bad guy…
.
.
.
But strangely there eyes are not filled with malice but pity, and a little grief, Lapis especially looks like she is holding down tears.
.
Only Lucy looks at me in wonder…
.
.
.
Lucy: ” cursed by the goddess of life, what did you that caused a god to curse you?”.
.
.
.
.
This is bad with her eyes ability to tell the truth their is no way I’ll be able to lie my way out.
.
.
.
Alec: ” LUCY HOLD YOUR TOUNGE”.
.
.
.
but surprisingly my release came from the most unexpected place, the Elven prince that I haven’t even talked to yet..
.
.
Lucy: ” WHY?!!”.
.
.
Alec: ” I SAID SILENCE”.
.
.
.
Lucy with a confused face stopped talking…
.
I’m a little confused as well what’s going on…..
.
.
Alec: ” I apologize for the rudeness you just got from my sister, I’m afraid she is still young and doesn’t know much about the outside world, I’m well aware people in the human kingdom might be prejudiced against you but you don’t have to worry about that here”.
.
.
What is happening.
.
.
The prince looks like he wants to give me a hug…
.
.
Lapis: ” Lucy this is a subject that might hurt our guest’s feelings, you need not to question further”.
.
.
.
Sapphire: ” it’s alright I think it would be better if you explained it to her, I don’t mind”.
.
.
.
I ALSO WANT TO KNOW
.
.
.
Lapis looks at her brother and father, they both give a light nod and she starts explaining.
.
.
.
Lapis: ” well for starters it’s not exactly a *curse* but a *blessing*, the goddess of life has a habit of giving blessings to people that she finds worthy… Or so she advertises…”
.
.
.
Lapis: ” the goddess of life gives these blessings, some of them are free but some of them have heavy prices attached to them “.
.
.
Lucy : ” prices “.
.
.
.
.
Lapis: ” for example, you could see slightly into the future but loose your sight as a toll..
.
.
.
You could heal people’s injuries, but you’ll feel their pain and suffering..
.
.
.
.
You could see the calamities ahead, but you will end up going mad from seeing all that chaos constantly… “.
.
.
.
.
What the hell is the goddess of life a monkeys paw or something.
.
.
Lucy: ” you’ve been teaching me how to remove curse for six years now, why didn’t you tell me before? “.
.
.
.
Lapis: ” ….. ”
.
.
Darren: ” they were trying to protect you”.
..
.
.
Lapis: “DAD”.
.
.
.
.
Daren: ” it’s alright sweetie, she is old enough, and you can’t keep her shelterd forever”.
.
.
.
What are they talking about?
.
.
.
Daren : ” my wife also used to have a similar *blessing*….”
.
.
.
Lucy: “WHATTTTT?!!!! “.
.
.
.
I’m also shocked the former elven Queen was “blessed” by the goddess of life?
.
.
.
Daren: ” at the time a newly borned Demon Lord in the Demon continent have developed a terrifying magic *Soul absorb*”.
.
.
.
That name doesn’t sound good.
.
.
.
Daren: ” as the name implies this magic allows the user to steel the souls of the victims he killed in order to add to his own power, he was originally an SS rank but after absorbing all those souls, he rose to be SSS rank”
.
.
What a terrifying magic..
.
.
Daren: ” the goddess of life then descended on us and gave us an option, a *blessing* with the name *soul sealing*, this skill allows the user to absorb all unpassed souls in their vicinity, so when we united with the other races to face the demon Lord’s attack, as soon as she set foot on the battlefield all the souls went straight to her, the demon lord was even more weakned due to having all those souls ripped forcefully out of him, and he was slain by your father without any issue… ”
.
.
.
Here comes the bad part I can feel it.
.
.
.
Daren: ” things were fine at first but as soon as we went home, your grandmother started hearing voices “.
.
.
Lucy: ” voices? “.
.
.
.
Daren: ” Yes, more specifically the voices of the souls, hundreds apon hundreds of souls, at first she could handle them, but after a while it started to take a toll, and her body also started to deteriorate due to having so much souls in it…
.
.
One body is supposed to house one soul no more no less…
.
.
Of course we all freaked out, and tryed praying to the goddess of life and our own deity the God of wind Seid, but no answer came…
.
.
.
Your aunt a young elvish princess at the time, shutted herself in her room and started studying how to remove curses, she spent her youth researching, and gave up on all social life of a princess, she didn’t go to a single ball or a gathering, and kept her dedication until she became the top expert in the field, but even that wasn’t enough, and after a hard fought battle your grandmother lost both her mind and body and ended passing at a fairly young age for an elf, your brother was young then but he was still doted alot by her, that’s is why he lost his temper earlier, he meant no ill will”.
.
.
Lucy looked like she just heard an unbelievable truth while the rest look like they want to start bawling.
.
.
Alec: ” sir Garnet, I know this might be a tough question to answer but do you mind if I asked what is your curse precisely, I would just to make sure that it’s nothing that would bring harm”.
.
.
He’s asking to make sure his family is safe…
.
.
I better be as vague as possible…
.
.
Sapphire: ” my *blessing* was made so I can wipe out monsters, I can’t control it and it fires indiscriminately , but I’m keeping it hold by seal at the moment”.
.
.
.
Alec: ” I see, a skill to hunt monsters, you must have been born next to a big monster nest, so she gave you that skill to handle it, I did think that your rank is high for someone so young, that damn goddess I heard stories of her doing so but she actually is forcing people to fights that they don’t want “.
.
.
.
Emel: ” ALEC “.
.
.
.
Alec: ” WHAT WE DON’T EVEN WORSHIP HER”
.
.
.
Emel: ” I already told you before, she is an esteemed goddess, we should not show disrespect, although my Mom didn’t know the consequences she still would have done the same knowing it was for the sake of the people”
.
.
.
Lapis: *sob*…
…
.
I’m sorry…. ”
