Chapter 73 – 17. Demon Disease. (One)
I pray to the god of heaven and earth.
Please love and trust and….
“Love and faith, damn—”
The skeletal skinny woman growled, glaring fiercely at her opponent as if she would not listen. The thick-skinned man inhaled at the bloody spirit and backed away in surprise. But she didn’t stop there, frantically jingling the stick with bells and raising her voice even higher.
It’s bina it’s bina
I pray to the god of heaven and earth!
“It’s useless, so turn it off immediately!”
With love, faith and the power of mercy.
Please defeat this wicked evil.
Daughter and daughter and daughter.
The bell rang and the woman started laughing. Then she suddenly stopped laughing and jumped up and in one leap she was right in front of her opponent. And with a bang, her foot kicked the wall.
“If you talk one more time, I will crush your mouth with this foot.”
ㅡㅡ!!
Even though it was all dying, it was still possible to block the snout of the pseudo-shaman. She gave him a wild glance, then turned around and slammed her iron door with her toe.
“Open.”
As soon as the thick iron door slammed open, the woman slipped through it and rode her passage up to her ground level. Oops. The nausea you feel as soon as you see the sunlight.
…… She was so confident that she tried just in case, but again, the treatment failed.
A middle-aged man standing next to her with his hands behind his back saw it and muttered a lamentation and closed her eyes.
“…… Is this to no avail…….”
The maids quickly covered the woman’s head with a thick cloth. And she helped her and hurriedly escorted her to her mansion.
The shaman groaned from the cellar and went to the Countess and prostrated herself. The middle-aged stared at the back of the head of the opponent lying on the floor and said coldly.
“… Didn’t you say you could?”
“Sorry, sorry…. With all my abilities… !”
The voice that had confidently said that it was unconditional just a moment ago was nowhere to be found, and only the cowardly trembling excuse remained. If I hadn’t said that, I wouldn’t have expected it. Since he only bluffed on a topic he couldn’t even do, how could his anger not soar?
“Go away. I don’t even want to see it. Get out of my estate right now on this road. Dangjaang—!”
The count pointed his finger and shouted, and the fat shaman staggered away in amazement. He let out a long sigh and slowly followed the path her daughter had taken.
The deepest room in the mansion. A place where all the windows are covered with boards, and the only light is a couple of flickering candles.
The skinny woman, like a skeleton, was sitting cross-legged on the floor when she felt the Count enter and opened her closed eyes.
Although it has reached this point, the two eyes still shine brightly without breaking. …… I thought the Count had a really strong personality. To the extent that he was sincerely admired as a human being, apart from being a child.
“What did I say?”
“…… Still, I have to do everything I can.”
“You can tell just by looking…. I wonder if he is the one who can save me or not.”
“Even if the father was a straw, she wanted to grab it.”
“I will overcome with mental strength.”
“There are things in the world that cannot be done with mental strength!”
“It is because of the weak mind. My body is still lacking. We need to be more diligent.”
That bastard’s stubbornness!
Of course, where did that stubbornness come from? The Count did not break his will either. He intends to keep going his way.
As he was about to leave the room, her daughter softly called out to his father.
“Even if I die, let me die with honor.”
“… Who dies, who dies!”
The Count pressed on in a stern voice and left the room.
The woman closed her eyes again and lost herself in her meditation.
However, she was constantly haunted by the terrifying image.
“Civ… !”
…… It’s because my mental strength is lacking. Mentality… , Mental strength, lacking…… !

Count Villa, the lord of the middle city of Marcas, constantly sought his healer to heal his daughter. He did not discriminate whether he was a believer, a shaman, or a cult if he had even the slightest talent for healing. … However, even after half a year has passed, no one has even improved the symptoms even a little, let alone treatment.
His second daughter, Natasha Gondor Villa, who wouldn’t hurt even if you put it in your eyes, has gotten weaker as time goes on, and now she’s so skinny that it’s hard to see.
If it had been an ordinary criminal, she would have died even if she died a long time ago, but she was miraculously living her life. With one single determination to overcome this cursed incurable disease with one’s own strength. … However, you should already be aware that you cannot overcome it on your own.
Time passed without any promise.
By the time the news reached Count Villa that he had successfully stopped a large group of necromancers in Behimruod, a large city in the west.
At that time, when no one came forward to treat the disease for more than 15 days, a man came to the count.
A rare young man. …… However, it was difficult to see him as a therapist no matter where he looked.
But now, driven into a really dead end, the Count was in a situation where he had to hope that he would catch a mouse by stepping backwards from a cow.
“My name is Allen Dwise Pomwell, Your Excellency. Allen is the sophomore of the mercenary corps.”
I thought he wasn’t a believer or a shaman, but he must have been a mercenary.
Of course, there were not a few mercenary owners among those who came to the count. They usually tried to sell a mysterious drug or item that they brought from some mysterious place at a high price. However, no matter how cornered the Count was, he was never a person who was easygoing enough to fall for their foolish tricks.
In my heart, I dared to throw the castle lord into prison for scorning him, but I sent them all back nicely, fearing that a real healer would be scared and come back.
“…… So, how are you going to treat my daughter?”
“It’s hard to say what to say here. The first priority is to check your daughter’s condition.”
“Does seeing change anything?”
“Because that’s how we know the cause.”
Confidence without the slightest hesitation. Of course, such people were not unheard of, but the Count was sure that the interest was at least not the selling of goods.
“Good. Then go right now. … Do you have anything else to prepare?”
“I have nothing to prepare, but I have one more companion.”
“Okay. Do whatever you want.”
The two came out of the count’s office together. Outside was a woman with a blindfold. Seeing that she is wearing a nun’s uniform, it seems that she belongs to that group.
From there, the count’s trust rose slightly. I feel like I’m not talking about something….
Since a sudden meeting had to be arranged, the Count said that he would first go to his daughter and explain the situation, and left at a brisk pace. And Allen and the blind saint followed leisurely along with the guide.
Natasha, who was sitting alone in her room meditating and fighting the disease, greeted the visiting Count politely.
“What did you come for?”
“The therapist has arrived.”
It was news she had been waiting for a long time, but Natasha was not very happy with it. Most of the people who challenged her to treat her until now were pseudo-pseudonyms that even the gardenia for treatment was a waste of time.
And she was sure that this time too was no different from the previous case. … Suddenly, someone who can cure demonic diseases drops from the sky?
…… Rather, it is more realistic for me to overcome with mental strength.
However, while the father is struggling so much, it is impossible to turn away from the position of the child.
“I knew.”
After a while, two men and women entered her room. One was a very handsome man, and the other was a blindfolded nun.
The man asked the Count if he could move away. The father looked at her daughter, and she nodded her head lightly.
She had no reason to hurt her when her opponent was dying, and she still had the strength to move on her own. She’s just minimizing her movements to conserve her stamina as much as possible.
When the Count left, only three men and a woman were left in a dimly lit room with only a few candles.
“My name is Allen Dwise Pomwell.”
“It’s Odd Noon.”
The couple exchanged greetings, but Natasha didn’t say anything, just nodded her head once. Like she’ll figure it out. Of course, her eyes were still full of disbelief.
Before Allen did something of her, she gave Natasha attention.
“Whatever you see, don’t be too surprised. Staying calm will be good for you.”
What the. Natasha snorted at her.
“Don’t worry. There will be no surprises.”
“… Good luck then.”
The handsome man grinned once and looked at her blind daughter and nodded her head lightly. Then she is a nun who removes the blindfold.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!!!
The moment she saw her black eyes, like the abyss, Natasha felt her whole body stripped bare. And at the same time she vomited up.
Ah ah ah
She closed her eyes for a moment and opened Natasha, feeling that she was falling somewhere. That terrifying feeling of floating…. And right below her, a huge, gross-looking monster was waiting for her to fall, with her mouth wide open.
Aaaaa!!!!!
It seemed that she would suffocate in terrible horror. She wanted to live Wanting to live so much, I hit her struggling. But nothing changed. It’s just that monster’s mouth, it’s just falling endlessly.
I want to live, I want to live!!
Then something in her grabbed her by the chin and pulled her up out of the darkness as if to pull her up onto her water surface.
“Aaaaagh!!”
Like someone on the verge of suffocation, Natasha clung recklessly to her opponent. I want to live. Because I don’t want to die
“Shhhhh… , It’s okay. It’s okay. I got it are you okay. Because I’m fine now….”
Allen caressed Natasha’s skinny back, which clung to her and trembled, to reassure her.
At that time, the Count, who heard his daughter’s screams, rushed into the room.
“What happened!”
The Count hesitated for a moment as he looked at Natasha, who was gasping for joy in her Allen’s arms. It’s the first reaction I’ve seen since her daughter got the devil’s disease.
In the meantime, Odd Noon and Allen, who were blindfolded again, looked at each other and nodded lightly.
And, Allen said to the Count.
“Cause… , I think I figured it out.”
