The fact that the article does not mention anything specific is probably because of the sensitive nature of the content. Since the Church, the Academy of Magic, and even the Dojo of the Sword Sage are involved, and since Franz-san was originally involved in prophecy-related activities, the media seems to have been considerate. Fortunately, despite the size of the uproar, the scale of the destruction was not that large. Miraculously, there were almost no casualties, which was really surprising.

However, if Eliza hadn't been eaten by Mimikun at that time, things would have been very bad. Before we came back, she happened to come to the lounge, found Mimikun, and was trapped and eaten by him, but Eliza and Mimikun really did a good job.
Tino is safe, and Eliza is happy that she got what she was looking for. The cursed spirit man has not come out since ...... Eliza's statement about the mating. After all this time,......., that's very tactful.


However, through a mixture of bad luck and good fortune, I managed to settle down where I should, but if any one thing hadn't come together, I would never have been able to see the light of day again.
For once I was exhausted. One night's sleep is not enough to relieve this mental and physical fatigue. I want to sleep for a month or so. Maybe I should live in a mimikun for a while. .......

While I was thinking about this, Eva pulled out her warding finger from her right ring finger and placed it on the desk.

'By the way, ...... Cry, thank you for this.'

'Hmm ......?'

Ava sighs deeply as I widen my eyes. I've been through a lot myself, but it looks like Eva's been through a lot too.

I don't know why I'm being asked to return the ring - I roll my eyes, and Eva says with a dry laugh.

'Thanks to the ring I borrowed, I was not affected by the curse. When I was checking the repairs in the lounge, Kry and the others suddenly appeared and swallowed me - I thought I was finished. ......'

............No way, Eva, were you in the lounge at that time?

I hadn't noticed it at all, though it was certainly surprising that Eva had pulled me up instead of Liz.
Really, you should be prepared. After all the trouble she's caused me, if anything happens to Eva, I'm not going to die.

I picked up the warding finger on my desk and looked at it for a while, then quickly put it back on my desk and offered it to Eva.

'You can have it, it's a benefit. You can have Lucia do the recharging.'

'...... What! I don't want the benefits!

'Don't say that, it might come in handy the next time something happens. ......'

'............Please try not to have that kind of opportunity. Really, please.

So, Eva ......, you think I have some kind of plan for you to give me the warding finger? No, I don't. I didn't think anything of it.
I'm not thinking about it. I've just been through another one that consumed all of my warding fingers, and one more won't mean anything.

I took Eva's discouraged hand and put the ring on it. Now Eva is safe.
But ...... the only good thing I did this time was maybe giving Eva the warding finger?

It's a great way to make sure you don't end up in a situation where you can't get out of it. I'm not sure if you've heard of it, but I'm sure you've.

'............ Speaking of which, what is that stuffed animal? It looks like it's very old.

'I found it in Mimikun's town. Isn't it nice?

'Another strange thing ........................, no, is that, by any chance... --'

It's a raggedy, tattered stuffed bear. The fur, which was probably originally light brown, is blackened and stained here and there. One of its eyes and one of its arms are missing, making it look quite painful.
If you put the cross pendant that fell together with it around your neck like this,.................., you can complete the cursed two-piece set.

It was probably the body of "Lamentations of Marine". The pendant is familiar to me, so I'm sure it is.
I don't know if the curse still remains, but it protected me for some reason at the end, and I couldn't resist bringing it back. It's a bad habit of mine to act on the tension of the moment, but so far there's no sign of the curse.

I hold up my index finger and say to Eva, who seems to have sensed something with astonishing insight.

'It's a secret from everyone.

'Okay, okay.

'Next time, I'll wash it and dry it in the sun. But first, I have to replace the internal organs...'

I'll replace the arms and eyes and have Citri overhaul it. Plush toys are also a rather popular field. It is impossible to modify a treasure trove, but it is possible to make a mere curse. I'm sure Marin will be very pleased.
The stuffed animal suddenly collapses in front of me without my having touched it, as I speak smilingly. Ava shivers exaggeratedly.

Her remaining arm stretches toward me as if she's looking for help. I sighed and helped the limp stuffed animal up.



'.................. Looks like it's better to leave the organs intact.'
